The arrival of still another steamer from Lugland without tidings of the Pacific, and the lapse of about fifty days since she left Liver pool, are sufficient to destroy the hopes of many who have been heretofore confident that he was not lost. Hope now begins to give way to despondency, and tho horrible idea that the noble vessel with forty-fivepassengers and a crew of one hundred and forty souls has gone down forever into the ocean’s yawning gulf, presents itself to the minds of men, with tnrtling force. The remembrance of the President and the City of U'asgow, that were : ever heard of more—of the Nashville, that for several days lay a disabled wreck at the mer cy of a heavy sea, each mighty swell sweeping • ill scores of her exhausted and despairing pas sengers nd crew—of the ill-fated Aroticgoing down by inches, while from her decks • Manhood sternly market I bi* tomb. Ami woman wailed amid the gloom, As slowly sank th wreck”— —all theso dismal and tearful mementoes of the past rise up to rebuke and dispel the faint suggestions of that consoling principle which “ lives eternal in the human breast.” Sad and sickening as is the contemplation, the public mind must now apprehend the fearful probability that the Pacific is added to the number of ocean steamers engulfed in the wa ters of the vast Atlantic. A report has been in circulation in New i ork, to the effect that Capt. Nyc, until re cently the commander of the Pacific, had de clared that she was unseaworthy and that he believed she bad gone down. The frequent repetition of this report lias called out Captain Nye with a card through the press, in which be docs not deny the substantial correctness of the rumor. It appears from this card, that * apt.. N. wished to give np the command of the Pacific long ago, but after the disaster to the \ retie he preferred to rotaiu his post for a few months longer, fearful that his motives might be improperly assailed if he retired at once.— NV hen he gave up the command, he recoin* mended as his successor a gentleman in whom the crow had confidence, and who was accep table to Mr. Collins, but ltrown Lb-os. & Cos. procured the appointment of another to the tation, and the engineer and other principal officers then resigned their places. To this circumstance Capt. N. thinks the non-arrival of the Pacific is mainly to be attributed, and be has no hopes of ever seeing her again. This statement is one of appalling interest at this time, and it has no doubt crushed tho still liv ing hopes of many who had relatives and friends on the missing steamer. Sincerely do wt* liopt that the prospect of her safety is not o desperate and gloomy as the circumstances seem to indieate. The Governorship of Wisconsin. Madison, Wis.. March 8. Governor ltarstow has sent a message to the Legislature denying the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in the matter of the Governor ship, and avowing his determination to resist my interference with his rights. A Demo ratie meeting had, also, been held, at which it was resolved to support Gov. ltarstow. We have already stated the facts pertaining to this case. A return notoriously fraudulent was made from one of the counties to the office of the Secretary of State, and counting it with fho legal returns (which we presume the Soc • rotary was compelled to do), ltarstow had a -modi majority in the entiro Stnte: he was :hus declared reelected, ltut Itashfoial ap plied to the Supreme Court for redress, and that tribunal has rendered a decision in his favor, ltarstow has taken the oath for a now term, and is still the acting Governor. We believe that one House of the Legislature sides with ltarstow and the other with Ba.shford; one has reported the return by which ltarstow was declared to bo re-elected fraudulent and void, and we arc not inform ed that the majority of the other House dcuy ihe correctness of this report. The case pre sents some novel features, involving the juris diction of the Supreme Court in the matter, the duty of the Secretary of State in reference to returns evidently false, and the remedy af ter a Governor has been officially declared elected and sworn into office upon a fraudulent return of votes. lied river was very high on the Ist instunt, uid navigation around the Haft was good. The Main Trunk Hailway. By the provisions of the act extending State nid to this work, the road is to commence near the corner of Appling ami Wayne counties, thence to run to the vicinity of Warcsboro in Ware county, and thence to he curried west wards to the western bank of the Chattahoo chee river, at some point between Fort Gaines and the junction of the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers. The main object is declared to be, to effect a onion of the Atlantic and the Gulf by a railroad through Southern Georgia, and the commissioners are to have this object in view in locating the route and its western terminu-. Tho commissioners appointed to superintend the enterprise are to meet in Mil ledgevillc on the list inst., when they will doubtless open books Os subscription and order a survey with a view to the precise location of the route. After §OOO,OOO shall have been subscribed by individuals, the State is to sub scribe for §IOO,OOO of stock, and in the same proportion for any larger sum subscribed by individuals. The connection troin citlici Sa vannah or Brunswick must be effected up to the Main Trunk before any iron is to be laid upon the latter. Jn reference to these con nections, we understand that that lro i Savan nah will be about seventy-three miles in length, that the city has subscribed one million of dollars for its construction, and that a small portion of the road is already in running order, with work progressing on a much larger por tion of the route. The Brunswick connection will be about fifty miles in length if run to the starting point of the Alain Trunk, or sixty-five miles if carried to Warcsboro’. About thirty miles of this connecting road is already gra ded. It will be seen from this statement, that in all probability the preliminary requirements in reference to one or the other of the connect ing lines will he fully consummated before any iron is needed for the Main Trunk. The State aid may therefore be considered ns not only secure, but fully available as soon us it is re quired. That tho amount required of individ ual subscribers will lie speedily taken, there can be little’doubt, 4 for the general opinion prevails that the road must be a profitable and paying one. It will do much to develop the resources of a fertile and dc-irable portion of our State, and to extend to its thrifty settlers all the advantages of easy commercial ex changes with almost the entire Union. It will greatly enhance the value of the lands of the whole region through which it is to run, and largely increase the revenue of the State.— Sound and enlightened Statepoliey demands it —the interest of the poorest settler, as well as of the large landholder or speculator, calls aloud for it—both capital and industry will be bcnctittcd by it, and the progressive spirit of the age must urge its speedy completion. Business at New Orleans, isixly-six steamboats lYom the up-country arrived tit New Orleans last week, viz: 53 from the lower Mississippi and its tributaries, 12 from the Ohio and its tributaries, and one from the upper Mississippi. I‘>y these arrivals, fiO.OfiK bales of Cotton, 5,1711 liluls. of Sugar, 0,518 bbls. Molasses, !!,o'.*s bids. Flour, 110,- O'lli sacks of Corn, 10,214 sack of Wheat, 117 lihds. Bacon, and 1 >l3 bbls. l’ork, were receiv ed. The stock of Cotton remaining on hand on Saturday evening was 271,301 bales, against 111,21*7 to same date last year. ♦ Fire—One Hundred and Ecighty Thousand Dollars worth of Cotton Destroyed. Quite a brisk fire started into existence, about 7 o’clock 011 Friday morning, among a lot of cotton piled in the third yard of the lower cotton press. Third District. The fire was observed a few minutes before, by the yard clerk, who tried to quench it, but the flumes spread with too great a velocity to be stopped by the means and appliances at his command. Not more than 10 minutes elapsed from the time the tiro was first discovered un til the entire cotton shed and all was inflames. Not only tho cotton iu tliisslieU, but that stored iu two adjoining stieds was destroyed. The three sheds in question are now a mass of ru ins. A brick wall, fronting on Grcatwcu street, fell, and falling on au employee of the yard, broke his leg. lie was removed to his home for surgical attendance. There was a rumor afloat at one time that five or six other persons were under the wall, crushed in by’ the rubbish. This, wo are glad to say, was not the case. A number of engines, together with the ‘Young America’ steam engine, were 011 the ground, but owing to the scarcity of water, little good was the result, When our reporter left “Young America” was playing away right rapidly, with six branchliose, bearing heavily on the smouldering remnant of the conflagra tion. A strong opinion is abroad that the whole tiling is the work of an incendiary. If it had occurred in the night time, there is no knowing or calculation of the loss of property j which would have ensued. Another fortunate circumstance is, besides that of the tire having taken place in the daylight, that Ferdinand street intersected the cotton yard at a point where the wall fell, and lienee the progress of the tire was cutoff from the eottonin the yards between that street and the river. \Ye learn the property was insured in three different insurance offices—in the t’rescent, Merchants’ and in another office, the name of which our reporter could not ascertain. Strong censure falls on the Water Works Com pany in this, as in other cases similar, where property could have been saved if there was only a proper supply of water. —V. //. Tno Drlta, S th.

The United States Senate to-day passed the bill appropriating $3,000,000 for the increase of the armaments and munitions of war.

Destruction of Steamboats at St. Louis. IT,.m tin- St. Louis Democrat of Ki t,. 27. Another great disaster has befallen our city. The long dreaded event of the breaking up of the ice, which for two months gorged the Mississippi and all its tributary streams, has come at last, and brought with it a destruction i of our mnririe interests far transcending nny -1 thing that was anticipated. Twenty hours since our levee was crowded with steamers —now nota perfect hull remains. All liuve been swept down that lay opposite the central part of the city, crushed into a common ruin hy the overwhelming masses of \ accumulated ice. broken cables, chains with ’ their links drawn to threads, n few shattered spars alone remain to tell the story of stately I vessels that were justly esteemed the pride of the Western waters. At a few moments after two o’clock yester- I day the alarm was given that the gorge has I commenced to break, and slowly, at first, and majestically the floating field began to move; then gathering force and rushing in upon the boats, it iified some out upon the banks, while thirteen others were carried below and strand ed upon the liars, where they were rapidly cut into ribands. A few of them that drifted into the bend of the river, although strained in every timber, fortunately escaped further damage. For some time the ice continued to flout off, but after a few hours it again gorged, caused additional destruction to those steamers that still lay at the shore. Anxious suspense then ensued. The Mississippi was rising rapidly, and it was well known that the next break-up would be even more terrific ban the prece ding one. At a quarter before eight the tolling of the bells and the confused shouts that burst upon the stillness of the night told that the ice was again in motion. Ten vessels, including amongst them two wharf boats that had been sheltered from the first violence, were torn from their fastenings, hurled one upon another, and sent crashing and drifting along the front of the levee. The scene was truly appaliug to those who wereqmerely spectators, while the heroic ex ertions of the commanders and officers who stood to their decks amid the falling of timbers and the sinking of vessels, doing all that men Could do to save them, was a thrillidg exhibi tion of most true courage in the moment of extreme peril. A dark night and a beating rain that ensued added dismalness and dreariness to the occa sion, and left those who might struggle with the elements almost a hopeless task before them. The additional boats that were thus wrested from the shore, and jammed amid the heaped up flakes that hurried them along, met a like fate with the steamers that had been carried oil’ in the afternoon. Frequently as St. Louis has experienced great reverses of fortune, by tire and flood and pestilence, and marvelous as lias been its rise after each reverse, we must yet consider this as one of the most disastrous that has befallen it. All the business interests of the city were looking forward to the opening of navigation with a confidence and cheer rarely felt before : and now, just at the moment when all of our rivers would have been covered with merchan dise, a large part of the vessels that were to have freighted it have been blotted out in a single day. To our insurance companies also the disaster will prove a heavy blow and de tract much from their means, although we do not fear that it will impair their credit. The losses will be very large, but what they will amount to in the aggregate, or upon whom they will fall, cannot yet be ascertained. The Philosophy of Rain. To understand the philosophy of this beau tiful ami often sublime phenomenon, so often witnessed since tho creation of the world, and so essential to the very existenccof plants and animals, a few facts derived from observation and a long train of experiments, must be re membered : 1. Were the atmosphere everywhere at all times of a uniform temperature, we should never have rain or hail or snow. The water absorbed by it in evaporation from the sea and the earth's surface would descend in an imper ceptible vapor, or cease to be absorbed by the air when it was once fully saturated. 2. The absorbing power of the atmosphere, and consequently its capacity to retain humid ity, is proportionately greater in warm than cold air. The air near the surface of the earth is warmer than it is in the region of the clouds. The higher we ascend from the earth the colder do we find the atmosphere, lleucc the per petual siioav on very high mountains in the hottest climates. Now, when from continued evaporation the air is highly saturated with vapor, though it be invisible and the sky cloudless, if its tem perature is suddenly reduced by cold currents descending from a higher to a lower latitude, its capacity to retain moisture is diminished, clouds are formed and the result is rain. It condenses, it cools, and like a sponge filled with water and compressed, pours out the water its diminished capacity cannot hold.— How singular, but how simple the philosophy of rain. What but Omniscience could have devised such an admirable arrangement for watering the earth? Lead in Alabama. Quite important discoveries of lead ore have been made in Coosa county, Alabama. A spe cimen, taken from a pit on the top of a vein, fifteen or twenty feet below the surface, con tains not only lead, but gold and silver. Black, red and grey copper is also found in that vi cinity. A specimen has been submitted to Mr. Rid dell. Professor of Chemistry in the University ot Louisiana, to be assayed, and the result of his analysis is as follows : the proportions of the mass are such that 2,000 lbs. of the lead yields silver to the value of $37.08, and gold to the value of s3ii.B2. Now, admitting the 2000 pounds to be worth, for thelead alone, at 7 cents per pound, we have $l4O, which, ad ded to $73, the value of the gold and silver, | makes the worth of the mass $213. The section in which these minerals have been discovered, is one which has received lit : tie ttention from the settler, and none from ! scientific men. The vein from which speci mens have been taken runs under a ridge about a mile from the Coosa river. The deposites are now undergoing an examination under the superintendence of Professor Vansant, whose explorations thus far have not extended to the lower strata: nor has the bed of the river been explored. These discoveries deserve the attention of scientific men, and especially those ot Alabama, to which State the presence of such mineral matteriu her territory, would to be incalculable importance. —Charlatan Standard} Very Unfortunate. A personal collision occurred yesterday af ternoon, ou Commerce street, between Gen. J. 1L Clanton and Mr. Elsbcrry, of the firm of tiivcn & Elsberry, in which the latter was wounded by a pistol ball in the thigh. We do not know the particulars, and only express our deep regret at the occurrence. Mr. E’s wound is not considered dangerous, we are informed. —Montgomery Mail, 11 th in*t. TELEGRAPHIC.

The Paris Press and the United States. The Paris Constitutiounel, in an article upon the differences between England and the Uni ted States, signed by the principal editor, — the usual form, when it is wished to be under stood that the publication lias a semi-official character, —says: “If the United States are determined to be warlike, they will find that not only England, but France also, will be opposed to them.— The Cabinets of Europe can never view with indifference the danger with which the Ameri can Government threatened the independence of the weak powers and the peace of all the world. It is in vain for the United States to imagine that America belongs to them exclu sively, and that Europe has no business what ever to intermeddle in the affairs of the Amer ican Continent. The doctrine, proclaimed and accepted by some of their statesmen, is utter ly untenable. The affairs of America are the affairs of tho whole world;—of England, of France, of Spain, of Holland, —because the. have both commercial and political interests to defend, numerous Colonics to protect, a direct and indisputable right of interference. * * * * The Anglo French alliance will survive the war in the Crimea.— The United States ought to know this, and be more modest, or at least more moderate in their hearing towards England and the rest of Europe. _— The Allies at Kertch—European Civiliza tion. A correspondent of a New York journal con firms all the previous accounts of the horrible atrocities perpetrated by the allies at Kertch. The place visited with these unspeakable hor rors was a peaceable and inoffensive town, whoso inhabitants had taken no part in the war. Not only was the property of these un offending people destroyed, but their wives and daughters, without au exception, fell vic tims to n fate worse than death. It is said that not a woman in the town escaped, and that they were not only violated, but dragged from their once happy homes and compelled to accompany the monsters of the English and French army to Constantinople. Comfortable, refined and happy homes were thus desolated forever, and, in some instances, the wretched victims, having been deprived of tlicir honor, were also deprived of their lives. Si ilar scenes occurred at Bomersund. Yet the wretches capable of such crimes, talk of them selves as the champions of civilization, whilst Russia is so hopelessly barbarous that she must be exterminated 1 if she is barbarous, she Inis committed no such offences as these, and, at all events, lias never added to the mis fortune of barbarism the crime of hypocrisy. A Rival of William Tell. The following instance of daring sport is re lated in the Albany Transcript: The feat performed by Tell, in shooting an apple off the head of his son, has been told over and over a ain, and is as familiar as house hold words, was a wonderful piece of execu tion, close calculation and great daring. Some thing similar was attempted and successfully performed in the village of l’ittstown, Rens j sclacr county, about a week since. The cir -1 cumstance was related to us as follows : There had been a turkey shoot at which sev eral “crck shots” had assisted after; the shoot was over the crowd adjourned to the tavern; numerous drinks were called for and put out of sight, and the party, somewhat elated, com menced talking about William Toll, when one of the party, by name of Horace H. Wads worth, remarked that he was as good a shot as Tell was, and, said he, “ find me a man and I’ll prove it,” whereupon Alonzo Gorgan step ped forward and sai , “I’m tl.e man for you to practice upon.” “Very well,” said W., “get an apple and I’ll try.” Search was made for an apple, but not finding one readily a po tato was substituted, and the crowd adjourned from the bar-room to the yard adjoining the barn. “ Measure off twenty paces,” said Wads worth. The distance was paced. Gorgan took his place with his cap off and potatoe on his head, when Wadswortli deliberately raised his rifle, drew a fine shot on the potato, and discharged his piece at arms length ! No one expected that he would do it, and for a moment consternation was depicted on the countenances of all the by standers, until Gorgan, putting his hand on his head, said in an agonizing tone “Am I dead ? Is there any blood ?” It was found that Gorgan was not de and, but that the potato had been cut in twain and that no bloodjhad been drawn, though aridge about the size of a person’s finger had been raised on the top of his head by the force of the ball. Gorgan who did not think that Wadsworth would fire, was seriously alarmed for a few minutes afterward, as he believed that his skull was split. He says that if any smart shots want to practice shooting petatos off a person's head, they must find some onebesides him to be their target. Birth Extraordinary. The last number of the Herald, published at t’amdeu, Arkansas, contains the following: A few days since a negro woman, belonging to Col. John Dockery, the worthy President of our railroad, was delivered of four children at one birth—three girls and one boy : their av erage weight is seven pounds each. When last heard from, the mother and her little dar kies wore doing well. The Colonel has named the children after his favorite enterprise Mississippi, Ounchita and Ited River Railroad, giving the girls the names of the three rivers, and calling the boy Railroad.
