COLUMBUS: 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. —.—— Election in Oirard. The heat officers elected on the Ist Monday in March, in the Girard (Ala.) precinct, hav ing failed to qualify within the time prescrib ed by law, another election was held on Mon day last, the same candidates being in the field. We give tho result, compared with the vote on the Ist Monday : MAUJS’rUATKS. March 3d. March /list. Phillips, Anti 104 #2 Clay, “ 102 75 Wilkoy, K. S 70 93 Stroud “ 53 70 CONMTAHLK. Crawford, Anti 101 Moon, K. N 07 S3 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. In twice two hundred year* tlio Hear The Cres-ent ahull assail: lint if the Cock and Bull unite, The Bear shall not prevail. In twice ten years again, bet Islam know and fear. The Cross shall stand, the Crescent wane. (link down and disappear. As the Turks entered Europe in 1453, the ••twice two hundred years had just expired 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. for the Dally Sun. Columbus, March 31, 1850. 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 to seek repose. Now lam not a profane man; 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. with a very heavy beard; and I think that there is as much necessity that 1 should have that shaven from my face, as there is for eat ing my breakfast, Thcso arc the necessities and not the luxu ries of life, and should certainly be treated alike ; and if the barber shops be shut up, close up the Hotels. If it is not necessary to be clean, let it not be necessary to eat—for they are both imperative, in the opinion of one Os the SI.’FFERKRS. Jethro Cotton. We observe that forty-seven bales of this su perior stable were sold in Charleston last week at 12.] cents per pound. 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. FIAT. From tlic Kufaulu Spirit of the South, April 1. 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.

Now start the machine for setting the table, auil tele graph to my wife's room, and tell her that Mr. Johnson is coming, then brush up my balloon, for 1 have an engagement in London, a* twelve o’clock. John Hies off to execute his orders, and the old gentleman runs over to the YY’cst Indies for a moment, to get a fresh orange. Scarcity of Sweet Potatoes. The Central Alabamian, published at Ely ton, has the following paragraph : The Seed Lost. —The seed of sweet pota toes is undoubtedly lost in this part of the State. As far as wc can hear North and South, 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 that part of the State, but none could he found. POSTAL REFORM. urn'll TO THE I'OST Utni E.

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.” GOMMEHOI^I OFFICE OF TIIE Iniiv ,1 Columbus, (la..
