Wednesday Morning, April !i, I*3#.
I. AUGUST CITY CIKCtiATIOS.
There was another slight frost in this neigh*
borhood yesterday morning, but not sufficient,
we hope, to injure materially tho fruit and
garden and field vegetation. We have for sev
eral days had disagreeable windy and chilly
weather.
Our river was again rising yesterday, and
the clearness of the water indicated that the
swell was from a source far up the country.

Shooting at Crawford.
W'e loaru that on Thursday last a difficulty
occurred at Crawford, Ala., in which several
persons wero engaged. It resulted in a colli
sion between bury, Esq., and James
Kirby. Both were armed with pistols, and
Kirby shot through his pocket at Lary, wound
ing him in the thigh. The wound, we under
stand, is not considered dangerous.

Tho steamship Ericsson was to take the place
of the Pacific for the next trip, and tho 2!lth
ult. wus tho day for her to sail from New York.
Her former trips across tlio Atlantic have
proved her to be a staunch and strong vessel,
and she was being divided into water-tight
compartments a few days since.
Tho Keceipts of Cotton.
Up to Saturday morning last, the receipts of
•otton at New Orleans for the season amoun
ted to 1,499,271 bales, showing an increase of
about 500,000 bales over the receipts up to the
came dates of last year. The total increase
at all the ports to latest dates is 900,820 hales.
Hon. Henry W. Hilliard, of Montgomery,
Ala., Ims been invited to deliver the address
before the two literary societies of the Univer
sity of Georgia, at the commencement in Au
gust, and has accepted the invitation.
The New York papers report tho arrival of
several vessels from the Western Islands at
that port, and none of them bring any news of
the Pacific. It would seem that any reasona
ble hope of her safety must now be abandoned,
as the hopes of those who have still predicted
her safety wero based chiefly upon tho proba
bility of her soekiug those islands in a disa
bled condition.

Tho United States and Austria.
Among tho reports brought by tho steamship
Canada from Europe, is a statement by the
Vienna correspondent of the London Times,
that an American commercial company is about
to be formed to effect a direct trade between
the United States and Austria for the importa
tion of cotton and other products. He inti
mates that a treaty of commerce will soon be
concluded between tho two countries.

A proposition being before the Massachusetts
Legislature to deny the right of suffrage to all
persons who cannot read and writ;-, the Fitch
burg Beveillo suggests that it will disqualify
Hon. Rufus Choate! It states that a board of
lyoeutn directors recently invited him to de
liver an address, and when his answer was re
ceived they were unable to determine whether
he lmd accepted or declined tho invitation, af
ter a laborious scrutiny of bis scrawl.
The Indian War in Oregon.
Tbe steamship Philadelphia, which touched
at Havana on the 25th ult., on her passage
from tlio Isthmus for New York, brings later
news from California and the Pacific coast.—
The Indian war in Oregon was still waged
against the whites witli relentless vindictive
uess and vigor. It was estimated that in one
region the Indians had 1500 warriors in the
field, besides considerable forces in other sec
tions. A party of them, availing themselves
of the opportunity afforded by the absence of
a portion of tbe company stationed to defend
the place, made an attack on the settlement at
Big Mend, and killed all the farmers and all
but a very few of the volunteers. The inhabi
tants on Rogue lUvernear its mouth had mov
ed to an old fort, where they mustered 130
men and were expecting on attack by the In
dians. An attack was nlso made on Seattle on
the 20th January, and the Indians succeeded
in killing several of the settlers and burning
two or three houses, though the inhabitants
had mostly taken refuge on board the United
States sloop-of-war Decatur and the bark
Brontes, and the sloop sent one hundred men
on shore, who finally routed the enemy.
It is evident that most of the Indian tribes
are engaged in these hostilities, and that the
Government will have to incur great expense
and loss in subduing them.
Prediction.
Tbe present course of events in the East
pointing toward a fulfillment of tho first por
tion of tho following prediction, which was
jaked out and published some three years ago,
wo think it time to republish it, that onr rea
ders may be kept an courant to what is to be.

As the Turks entered Europe in 1453, the

when the present war began. According to
the prophecy, they should beware of the
“twice ten” to come.—Ar.
PARTY VIEWS AND MOVEMENTS.
Georgia. —Wc learn from Gie Savuuuah pa
pers, that “a large meeting of the citizens of
Darien and others, without reaped to party,”
whs held on the 24th ult., to respond to the
nominations of Fillmore and Donelson. Reso
lutions were ottered highly applauding the
nominations as well as Mr. Fillmore’s former
administration of the Government, and denoun
cing the injustice of the existing naturalization
j laws; also suggesting a convention of the
friends of Mr. Fillmore to be held at Macon
! on the sth of June, to nominate an electoral
: ticket. It being objected that these resolu
: tious were of a party character, and therefore
might not he acceptable to a meeting consist
ing of members of all parties, a committee was
on motion, appointed to prepare and introduce
resolutions to which no such objection could
he urged. This committee retired and repor
ted resolutions, to which amendments were
offered, and the following were adopted :
Resolved, That we support these gentlemen
as men and patriots, and not as the members !
of any particular party.
Resolved, That although this ‘meeting ap
prove of the said nomination, yet as individu
als they reserve to themselves the right either
to support the above mentioned nominees or
any others as circumstances may dictate.
This is the first meeting in the State, of
which we have information, held to respond to
the nominations made at Philadelphia.
I‘knnsvi,vanm.—The Union or Fusion con
vention of all the opponents of the present Ad
ministration and of the admission of any more
slave States, was held at Harrisburg on the
20th ult. The “odds and cuds” seemed to
mingle harmoniously together, and nominated
a ticket for State officers. Resolutions were
adopted recommending a union of all the ele
ments in opposition to the national administra
tion, which, in reference to the Missouri Com
promise and the affairs of Kansas and Nebras
ka, is condemned as having forfeited the re
spect ami confidence of the people ; opposing
the extension of slavery in territory once con
secrated to freedom, or to territory now free;
and charging the administration with pander
ing to foreign influence and repudiating it
therefor.
The Cincinnati Conversion. —The Wash
ington correspondent of the Charleston Stand
ard writes : “i.lany members of the National
Convention are now present in Washington,
accidental/ if, it is said, comparing notes, and
seeing which way the land lies. The Ohio
delegates say Douglas will carry that State
altogether. Fierce and Buchanan will both
get some votes. Louisiana goes for Buchanan
—so docs Pennsylvania. Tennessee will vote,
as a unit, by instructions from State Conven
tion. They will aim to secure the nomination
for Gov. Johnson, of that State—but failing in
that—Tennessee will bo satisfied with either
Douglas, Pierce, or Buchanan. Many other
Southern delegates express their preference
for Gen. Rusk, of Texas, if a Southern man is
to be nominated.”
The correspondent of the Charleston Mercu
ry comes to the conclusion that “Gov. Wise is
exerting nil his influence for Buchanan, while
at the same time counting upou his defeat, in
the hope that, in that event, Buehauau’s friends
will support him. In Louisiana, Slidell is also
pushing the cause of Buchanan. Douglas will
support Pierce in preference to any but him
self; and Fierce’s friends when they find his
case hopeless, will in all probability rally upon
Douglas.
[Wc have already noticed the declaration of
a Louisiana paper, that Louisiana is for Dou
glas, and not Buchanan ; and now we see that
the New Orleans Courier says that the delega
tion is divided between Buchanan and l)ou
glas.]
The Washington Sentinel hears a report that
the friends of some of the candidates whose
names will be presented to tho National Demo
cratic Convention on the first Monday in June
next, are determined to make an earnest effort
to rescind the two-tliirds rule.
The Black Republicans.— Greeley, the
chief scribe of this motley gang, writes from
Washington City to his paper as follows :
“Letters favoring Fremont’s nomination are
flowing in from all quarters. 11is friends urge
four points in his favor: he is anew man,
fresh from the people ; his past life shows him
to be possessed of backbone; he is opposed to
slavery aggression and is in favor of freo Ter
ritories, and he favors the Facific Railroad.—
Banks declines the nomination. Seward is
earnestly advocated by many persons, but it is
doubtful whether he will accept. McLean,
Chase, Hale and Wilmot all have warm friends
and supporters.”
It is said that the Hon. Henry S. Foote of
California first suggested “some such man as
Millard Fillmore of New York, for President,
and some such other man as Andrew Jackson
Donelson of Tennessee, for Vice President,” in
a speech at Shasta, California, last January.
Hon. Albert Pike, of Arkansas, one of the
ablest and most influential of the Know Noth
ing leaders, refuses to be bound by tho action
of either the American National Council or the
Nominating Convention at Philadelphia.

Mr. Editor : Allow me, through the medium
of your valuable journal, to call the attention
of the public to an injustice to which I and
men of my class are subjected, by the opera
tion of the law which prevents barbers from
exercising their offices on Sundays.
1 am a mechanic, who is busily employed
during the week, and when night comesisglad

I have ever been accustomed to attend church
on Sundays, and would like to appear there,
to say the least, “decent.” Now I happen to
be afflicted, or blessed us some may have it.

there is as much necessity that 1 should have
that shaven from my face, as there is for eat

Thcso arc the necessities and not the luxu

A portion of the citizens of Quaker Bottom,
Ohio, have heen holding several meetings re
cently to denounce slavery and express their
sympathy for fugitive slaves. The village is
on the Ohio river, and only separated by it from
Virginia. While they were holding one of
those meetings the other day, a small party ot
Virginians crossed the river and gave the abo
litionists a sound drubbing. They were made,
more fully than ever before, to appreciate and
commiserate the condition oi fuyitives.

Novel Remedies for Mail Failures.
We find in the National Intelligencer the iol
lowing correspondence, which suggests the
propriety of Congress reporting on three plans
now before it, for the quick and safe trans
mission of mail matter;
Gentlemen: The frequency of our failures
to receive the mails in any thing like a reason
able time at any season of the year, but espe
cially during a great portion of the winter,
should prompt us to patronize any feasible plan
for improving the celerity and certainty in the
transportation of mail matter from point to
point over our widely extended country. You
are doubtless aware that there arc now before
Congress three plans intended for the attain
ment of the desirable object just mentioned. —
Mr. Richardson, a scientific gentleman of Bos
ton, has submitted an invention, consisting of
a tube, in which an air-tight piston or plunger
is to move. This plunger is so constructed as
to be the mail bag, and when the air is ex
hausted from one side by a statonary force,
the plunger moves toward the point of ex
haustion. Another plan is a “speed locomo
tive,” the invention of John Vanblarcum, a
practical engineer, of St. Louis. It consists
of a track adapted to a peculiar locomotive,
which is to be as light as practicable, to have
from four to six wheels, ten feet diameter.—
Tbe vehicle is to combiuc the engine, tender,
and mail department, to carry an engineer and
an attendant. The inventor aims to attain the
speed of live hundred miles an hour. The oth
er plan i the invention of J. W. Fost, of Mor
gan county, Illinois, formeily of the city of
Baltimore. It is termed the “rolling mail
halls.” The principle consists in the use of
tubes, balls, and compressed air. The balls
containing the mail matter are to be construc
ted so as to be smooth and accurately spheri
cal, and to fill the tube as nearly as will ad
mit of a free rolling motion. There are to be
two tracks of tubes between points, each con
fined to its own direction of transit. The ap
paratus to supply the tubes with a constant
stn am of air consists of two or more engines
to compress and recoiupress air to its utmost
tension. It is proposed to employ injecting
engines at intermediate points. The balls are
to be introduced at proper intervals by short
branch tubes with valves, and they arc to be
discharged at the termini by open muffled
guides. The inventor, it is understood, has
perseveriugly contended for the practicability
of his plan for the last thirty years. It has
been ably advocated through the public jour
nals, by practical scientific men, and, so l'ar as
the writer knows, no one has yet ventured to
dispute tho practicability of the principle.—
There can be no question but that an accurate
ly formed ball, perfectly free to roll, with a
correspondently perfect tube, would constitute
a vehicle which would move with less friction
and prove more durable arid reliable than any
other possible construction. Scientific men
have estimated that, in accordance with an
oinometrio experiments, there can be no ques
tion of the attainment of the practical speed
of one thousand miles per hour.

Kansas Meeting at Clayton—-Approaching
Departure of Ma.i. Buford’s Company, &c.
YVe regret not having been able to attend the
Kansas meeting at Clayton, on last Saturday,
which wc are told by eye-witnesses, was unu
sually large and interesting. For want of
room in the court house, Maj. Buford address
ed liis audience in the public square, in a
speech of about an hour, the startling views
and appeals of which, we are told, were res
ponded toby tears from some of the auditory.
After he had concluded, M. B. Wellborn, Esq.,
was loudly called for, and after an eloquent
address that was listened to with great atten
tion, lie concluded by presenting in behalf of
the Clayton Emigrant Aid Society, their beau
tiful banner to Major Buford, accompanied
with appropriate and eloquent remarks, high
ly complimentary to the donee; who on re
ceiving the banner responded in a warm, en
thusiastic manner, evincing his high apprecia
tion of tho honor done him by tlio citizens of
Clayton, the centre of his own county, where
lie was best known, and his motives best un
derstood. Before the meeting adjourned, the
liberal contribution heretofore made by Clay
ton and its vicinity, was smartly increased, and
eight new recruits, in addition to those who
had already applied, enrolled their names—
and these wc learn were among the cleverest
young men of the county. The company will
leave this place on YVednesday morning next,
for Kansas, via Glennvillc, Silver Run, Colum
bus, Montgomery, Mobile, &c. The recruits
began coming in several days before the day
named for rendezvous. It is thought that from
50 to 100 will leave here to be joined by still
larger numbers in Columbus and Montgomery.
A letter of 24th ult., from Mobile, informs
us that in a few days they had raised Four
Thousand Dollars there, in aid of Maj, 15., and
expected further contributions before his reach
ing there with his party.

not one has escaped the severe freezes of the
past winter. Several of onr citizens last week
sent to Tuscaloosa hoping to procure seed in

Steam Boat Building in Alabama.
it always gives us much pleasure to chroni
cle any fact going to show that Alabama is
likely to become an independent State some
day. We have noticed, going tho rounds of
the papers, the fact that anew boat was laun
ched the other day, at Berkley’s landing, Ma
rengo county, into the waters of the Bigbee.
She is intended for that river, and well calcu
lated for that —“she was built by Mr. McClew
cr, a master workman, and Will class in first
class stern wheel boats, she is 140 feet keel,
38 feet beam, ‘25 feet floor, will draw light,
ready for running 12 inches, will carry 000
bales cotton, will have new stamped Iron Boil
ers, end be fitted out as a Passenger packet,
with 12 State rooms, she has extra finish in
hull, has 4 fore and aft floor streaks, has 42
knees, each fastened through, grub streak and
nuckle streak with three rivet bolts.
She will be commanded by an experienced
crew, will be anti-Combination—will com
mence running about the middle of May.”—
This is the kind of boat to make money.
It is not long since a nice little boat was
launched in Clark county, and the Messrs.
Mealier, of Mobile, have been building both
seagoing vessels and river steamers now some
years.
Why should wc every year send from Ala
bama several hundred thousand dollars to
build up cities, on the Ohio river—Abolition
ists, too, at that, or some of them squint aw
fully that way Alabama and the South at
large, have done much to help build up I’itts
burg, Cincinnati, and New Albany. Alabama
has sent them in the last 20 years from Bto
10 millions of money, for boats and various
knick-naeks; yes, we presume twice that sum,
for articles that could have been as well made
in Alabama, and some of them better, ltad
this state of things been changed 20 years
since, and various branches of manufacture
been encouraged here in Alabama, we should
have been a much more prosperous people,
richer and more populous, YVe might and
ought to have much larger cities in Alabama.
YVe should have them if we were not so exclu
sively agricultural. YVe are certainly old
enough now, as a State, to have a great varie
ty of business in our in our borders, and to
become a more independent people. We can
never liavo independence while we pay so
much tribute to other States and countries.—
That people who have the largest commerce
and the largest amount of labor-saving ma
chinery at work for them arc most apt to get
the ascendency over any people exclusively
agricultural.
The New Y'ork Herald announces that steps
are being taken to collect moneys due govern
ment from various defaulters who have here
tofore been unpunished. YVheii Mr. Guthrie
was made Secretary of the Treasury, there
was the sum of $132,521,704 69 due the De
partment. This seems incredible. A portion
of the sum stated had been due for twenty
years. The Herald says :
These old defaulters availed themselves of
act of 1841, and went through the Bankrupt
Court, surrendering the whole of their proper
ty. This surrender has been impliedly con
strued by the Secretaries of the Treasury sub
sequent to 1841, as a compromise which re
leased the defaulters from further prosecution
by the government. Mr. Guthrie lias taken a
different view. According to law, no statute
of limitations or statute of bankruptcy can be
pleaded against the government.
The Treasury Department was expressly
relieved from the operation of the law of
1811 ; at least this is the doctrine set
up tli'?law officers of the administration, and
approved by Secretary Guthrie. On the
strength of it, Mr. Guthrie has directed legal
proceedings to be instituted against all the de
faulters, and the case is now under considera
tion by Judge Betts.
At the same time, efforts were made to re
cover the balance due by the defaulters subse
quent to 1841. So vigorously was the matter
prosecuted, that up to the present time nearly
thirty millions of dollars have been settled,
leaving one hundred millions yet due to the
government. The circumstances, and the
whole proceedings, reflect credit on Secretary
Guthrie.
The Florida Potato.
An interesting communication lias been re
ceived at the Agricultural Department of the
Patent Office, from YVillium F. Robertson, M.
I>., of Tallahassee, Florida, respectiuga sponta
neous production of the soil in that region,
which, in the absence of any other name, ho
calls the Florida potato, lie says :
“It grows in the sandy soil* of our pine
woods, near the Gulf coast, is perennial, with
a climbing vine and flower somewhat resem
bling that of the convolulus or morning glory.
It appears to be vory prolific, the root or pota
to attaining a growth in the first year of four or
five inches in diameter and ten to twelve inch
es hi length. A specimen before mo has been
planted, about three years, and tho root is more
than thirteen inches in diameter, with numer
ous offshots or radicles, and would probably
weigh from thirty to forty pounds. The taste
is quite palatable, resembling that of the Irish
potato more than any thing else. Swine arc
quite fond of it. It lias never been cultivated
as an article of food, but from its pleasant
taste and prolific qualities 1 should infer that
it would prove a desirable addition to the list
of our root crops. In their native or wild
state both the Irish and sweet potato were com
paratively worthless and unproductive; hut
cultivation, like the wand of the enchanter,
bus transformed them in a wonderful manner,
and >ve behold them in universal use, accepta
ble alike at the table of the rich and of the
poor, and, from their exceeding productive
ness, carrying plenty where perhaps gaunt
famine would otherwise carry off its thousands
annually. May we not be permitted to hope
something from this new species ? * *
They should be planted in a light soil, in drills
and about a foot apart, and suffered to run on
poles.”
