OOX,IT M B UH: Wt ilnthdu)’ Morning, Miiy M J NSC. I. AIM.I’.ST CITY CIRCULATION. Salutatory. In these days of pledges and pro Buses, when every candidate lor public favor, b he Corpo ral or Congressman, is required to define hi* principles, it will perhaps, be expected of me, on entering the editorial department of the Sun, to proceed at once to the erection of my platform, us well us to make luy respectful obeisance to its readers. Fortunately for me the Sun lias already a platform, and bus been tor some time above the horizon. My connec tion with it will cuuse no change in its princi ple*-.. As heretofore, it will maintain a strict neutrality —a p'-rfeot independence of party, sect, or creed—reserving to itself, however, the right of commeut upon those great move ments, whether in politics or religion, which interest, and affect the universal public- the people at large. For tin- rest I have little to say. ‘1 he civil ised world has now grown to such huge pro portions, it is vain for anyone newspaper to at tempt alnitliliil record of all its ways and works. Vor do w<* think such record desirable, were it possible. Satisfied as wc are, that a vast amount of matter is daily published which no body reads and nobody cares for, we shall give the preference to those matters of dally and immediate concern to our readers, which lie around their very feet, but which are too often crowded out by some dull account of Indian skirmishing in Oregon, or a Mexican Revolu tion. We shall endeavor to make tho Hun a reliable business sheet, eminently domestic, and eminently Southern. Among tho first ditties of an editor we place the furnishing of an entertaining and agreea ble sheet cheerful, genial, and sprightly.— An editor has no more right to bore his read ers, than has a conversationist his hearers. Discarding then, at once and finally, all no tions of stiff and stllty dignity, we shall en deavor to make the Hun a welcome presence wherever its rays may fall -to maintain the reputation it has acquired—and to limit its regions of dullness, strictly to those columns upon which wc employ our own pen: and even then striving to be as entertaining as the nu turo of tho subject and our capacity will al low. Hoping that these views will meet with the approbation of those for whom it is niy pleas ure and privilege to labor, I am the reader’s Obedient servant, &c., THOMAS W. LANE. City Court. The City Council, at its last meeting, recon sidered their former action relative to the sala ry of the Judge of this Court, and then, by j-olution, rnisod the salary of that official .Min one to five hundred dollars. Avery destructive tiro occurred at Hopkins , Ivy., on Sunday tho 3d inst., destroying i- perty to the amount of $-00,000. Tho late Homicide at Washington. Tho Washington Organ, 9th inst., gives a pretty full repo, t of the examination of the Hon. i\ T. Herbert, who in a late affray, shot tho head waiter at Willard’s Hotel. The only important item elicited, not heretofore given, occurs in the testimony of several respectable gentlemen, all of whom concur in tho state ment, that the pistol was fired in tho heat of tho affray, and while Mr. Herbert was sur rounded by soveral of the waiters—some of whom were holding him while others were beating him over the head with plates.— Wo have previously stated that Mr. H. had been committed to jail, and bail refused him. Filibuster Meeting in Now York. Tho adjourned meeting of sympathizers with Gon. Walker, was held in New York on tho evening of the 9tl, was largely attended and enthusiastic. Speeches were made, and letters read, from Gen. Cass, and other sym pathizers. A Committee was appointed to raise and receive subscriptions, and material aid promised the cause. French Courtesy. It is said that Majs. Dolafield and Mordecai, and Capt. McLellan, U. S. A., who were sent to Sebastopol to examine tho works there, and improve their military skill, wero very rudely treated at Paris, while endeavoring also to ac quire information there. Permission to in spect the fortifications was refused them by the Minister of War, who is said to have closed the interview with tho words, “(i 'ood-bye tilt the first cannon shot.” Wo do not attach any importance to this somewhat ominous fare well, and have doubts whether the language was ever used. Hhould it, however, happen that the parties meet not again till the time specified, we trust our officers will not forget to reciprocate courtesies. ——- - Air. Crampton, it i .aid, admits that tho reply of Lord Clarendon on the enlistment question will bo unsatisfactory to the United State? ~~ —— Florida Rail Koad. Tho Charleston Standard lias some facts in connection with this Road, which promise a speedier success and completion of the enter prise, than has been heretofore held out.— Twenty miles of road from Feruandina, out, is ready for the iron, and the graders, 1200 in number, are at work upon the next seetiou. On the superstructure 60 hands are employed, and it is thought that forty miles of Road will be in working order by the coming in of the present crop. The Road Secretary has justre turued from New York, where he has effected a contract for iron sufficient for the forty miles mentioned. The Florida Central and Gulf Hoad is also said to be progressing finely. Mr. Buchanan Acoepts. A despatch to the Charleston Courier, dated Philadelphia, May 9th, states that Mr. Bu chanan has accepted the nomination for Presi dent, tendered him by the Pennsylvania Demo cratic State Convention, and that he endorses the Convention’s resolutions. From Washington. A Cabinet meeting on Nicaraguan relations, was held on the Bth inst. From papers read, it appears that the commander of the British frigate Kurydice woe acting under orders, when he prevented American passengers from going up the rivorto join Gen. Walker, and that said orders will continue to be enforced. It is supposed that the Kurydice has by this time been joined by ships of the British W. 1. squad run. One of the Cabinet members is reported to have said that Com. Hollins, had he been present, would not have permitted the Eurydioe to use force nil above mentioned, but would rath er have sunk her. An American war frigate, Coin. Paulding, ere this has arrived at Han •luaii, and a collision with the British ships is not impossible or improbable, should they act upon the Kurydice precedent. In this connection we would mention that the Orizuba, from New York for Han Juan, was to have sailed on Friday last, most of whose passengers intend joining Walker if unable to find a passage to Han Francisco. Instructions go out in the O. to Mr. Wheeler of Han Juan, uml to Com. Paulding. The < uhinet are still divided on the question of recognition of Walker’s Government, but it is denied that orders have been or are to be issued, enjoining a stricter observance of our neutrality laws. —— Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions. This Institution held its 19th Anniversary, in New York last week. The receipts for the past year, have been $201,933: Balance in hand .$24,8(1; increase over last year SIO,OOO, chictiy from ordinary contributions of the churches—an encouraging indication of in creasing interest in the Board’s operations.— Thu publications have been the same as last year: Eighteen missionaries, with thirty male and female assistants, have been sent out —a great inereaso over any previous year. Thu Board now bas nine missions among tho Indian tribes of this country; one in Liberia; one in Corsica; two in India; one in Siam; three in China ; one at Buenos Ayers ; one at Bogota (New Grenada); and two missionaries to the Jews of New York city. Rev. Wm. Hpeer still has charge of the mis sion to tho Chinese in California, and his la bors are said to have been very successful. The Board has remitted to various Evan gelical .Societies of Europe during the past year, the sum of $0000; and it is thought that these societies have greatly aided the promo motion and spread of Protestantism in their respective fields of labor. Georgia Items. Rev. James E. Evans of the Macon M. E. Church, preached his farewell sermon, to the congregation of that church ou Sunday eve ning last, prior to his departure for Na.slivillo a9 tho Book Agent of the General Conference of the M. E. Church South. Though Mr. Evans’ departure is a cause of great and mutual regret, tho change will much enlarge the field of his usefulness—a consideration which Mr. E. did not feel at liberty to disregard. The books of subscription to the M in Trunk Railway, chartered by the last Legislature, were opened in Savannah on Monday last. Mr. George D. Swift of Upson county, lias been appointed Aid de Camp to the Governor, with the rank aud title of Colonel. Alabama Items. The Eufaula Spirit of the South, 13th in stant, reports cool mornings, frequent show ers, and crops flourishing though somewhat backward, in that region. The Huntsville Advocate, 7th inst., reports heavy rains in that section, watercourses full, and running over, tremendous hail, witli thun der and lightning, stands of corn and cotton good, oat and wheat crops more flourishing. From Havana. The Charleston Courier has Havana letters to tiie 4tli inst. We condense therefrom the most interesting items of news : A plan for the introduction of African ap prentices to be on the same footing as tiie Chinese coolies, lias been set on foot and is making some headway. Concha is reported to be favorable to the scheme, and tiie more wealthy Creole planters bitterly opposed, and actively at work against it. Tho petition for the introduction is to be immediately forwar ded to Madrid. The Spanish war schooner Cartagena was recently saved from shipwreck by tho U. S. steamer Water Witch; the Spaniard was aground and was got off only after throe days hard labor. The Spanish papers arc profuse in acknowledgements and compliments to tho Water Witch; and tlio American population areuiuch gratified, astheCubanauthorities have ever been very kind to American ships in dis tress. The W. W., had sailed for Washing ton. Two now patents have been granted—one for tho manufacture of “artificial economical coal"; tiie other for anew process of pressing tobacco so as to retain all the aroma of the leaf. Tho Commission Mihtnr, a sort of inquisito rial Court Martial, lias been abolished, and suits pending transferred to civil courts. Great rejocing has followed this liberal meas ure. A rich planter of Santiago de Cuba, had imported several Norman stallions, for im proving the breed of Creole horses. The French brig La l’erouse celebrated the ■birth of Napoleon 111, with 101 guns. All the men-of-war joined in the compliment. In the evening the Perouse was illuminated, and thero was a large ball on board. The fires ou the sugar estates aud tobacco plantations still continue to an enormous ox i tent: some of the finest tobacco crops already I housed, and in preparation for the market, have been entirely consumed. The perpetra tors have not been discovered. 1 wo childreu, a boy and girl, in Mass, were recently poisoned, as is supposed, by the essential oil of tobacco. They had been blowing soap-bubbles, using for that purpose the stem of an old tobacco pipe. The boy died within 20 hours: the girl is still alive but not expected to recover. For Kansas. The Carolina Times says that tliirty-oue gentlemen start for Kansas from Laurens dis trict, on the 20th inst., headed by Ueu. A. C. Jones, who will he accompanied by his wile. This, we believe, is the first lady who has join ed the emigrants. All honor to her name. - ■ Aid to Kansas. An organization, called “The Frieuds ol | Kansas,” was formed in Petersburg Va., ou Wednesday last, having for its object the eu l couruging of,Southern emigration to the new territory. Among the speakers on the occa sion was the Hon. L. M. Keitt, of South Cur ! oliniu. The Southern Boatmen attempted last week, 1 to fire the new Railroad bridge over the Mis sissippi, at Rock Island, 111.; little harm was done however, and the fire soon extinguished. —+ _ Whig Party Tarred and Feathered. No matter whom it hits, the following, which we fiud in a Western paper, is too good to he lost: “ In 1862, when the Whig Convention was in session, first came news that Gen. Scott, who was supposed to he prone to display, par ticularly in plumage, was nominated for the Presidency. Then came news that William A. Graham, of North Carolina, the land of tar, pitch and turpentine, was nominated to the Vice Presidency. When this latter piece of intelligence was conveyed to Mr. Webster, he was engaged shaving himself. He stopped, and, having hoard the news, remarked, in his low emphatic manner as he deliberately wiped his razor: “Well, I do not see, thou, but that the Whig party have tarred and feathered them selves.” .Episcopal Convention of Georgia. The Marietta Georgian of tho 9th says : The Episcopal Convention of the Diocese of Georgia convened in our city on yestorday.— The opening sermon was preached by Rev. Mr. Clark, of Savannah, and the exercises will be continued until Sabbath, when eight persons expect to be confirmed. We are gratified to learn that the venerable Bishop is enjoying his usual health. ♦ New Telegraph Line. The Journal of Commerce learns that anew telegraph linebetween New Y ork and the South will be opened in the course of this month.— The line will be worked under the Hughes patent, generally believed to be superior to all others, printing the messages in plain Roman letters, and capablo of transmitting 5,000 words an hour over one wire, or 2,500 words •from each end at the same moment. The Central American Question. The London Morniug Star, an organ of the Manchester party, says: “We are told that at the meeting of the Cabinet on Tuesday, the 22d, at which Lord Clarendon was present, for the first time since his return from Paris, the answer to the Uni ted States was agreed upon. On some of the points connected with the Central American question, the British Government are prepar ed to give way, but they will not recall Mr. Crampton.” Whether the Administration will persist in its demand for Air. C’s. recall, is an interesting question yet to be solved. A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing. The Cherokee Georgian mentions the arri val at Marietta of the Rev. Air. Hutchins, a Baptist clergyman, of Forsyth, Ga., in pos session of another man’s wife. The woman (Mrs. Cain) lias a husband in California.— Hutchins is 65 years of age, and leaves behind him a wife, children and grand children. lie made over his little property to his lawfu’ 1 wife. The guilty parties have gone west.— Hutchins (says our coteruporary) lias been in the ministry 25 years, and has probably bap tized more persons than any minister of the Gospel in the state during that period. Great Review of the British Fleet. The naval review at Spithead or the 23d ult.,[was one of the grandest and most imposing sights of the sort that has ever been witnessed. 240 steamer :, of various sizes, carrying 3,002 guns, propelled by 80,761 Horse power, and manned by 30,000 seamen, made up the com pliment of this magnificent spectacle. In ad dition to these, government had provided 12 steamers for the accommodation of the mem bers of the government, the different public functionaries and the foreign officials. But tho most novel and significant feature in all these arrangements was the fact of the Cuckoo, a war steam ship, being specially and exclu sively assigned to the press. This is the first public recognition by the aristocratic element in England of what is now virtually the fifth estate in the realm. The French Expedition to Madagascar, The New Orleans Bulletin, in an article up on tho naval and military expedition now be ing fitted out by LouisNapolcon, forthe Island of Madagascar, says the expedition, it is be lieved, will be strictly a military one, aud the object will be to invade and occupy the coun try precisely* in the same manner as tho pre vious military expeditious sent out by France. She has already a foothold in Madagascar] having been in possession of two forts on the southeast coast since the reign of Louis XIV., and likewise a small garrison of troops sent thero some time ago from the Isle of Bourbon. It would be no great struggle with the na tives, with the immense force France could command, to take possession of the whole | island. From all accounts, Madagascar would be a most valuable acquisition to France. The island lying ou theenstem coast of Africa, from which it is separated by the Mozambique chan nel, is some eight or nine hundred miles long hv three or four hundred wide, and containing at the present day, at the most moderate esti mate, some 1,600,000 or 2,000,000 souls. The soil is remarkably fertile aud well watered, yielding almost every description of tropical produce, and abounding in largo herds of cat tle. Sickness is principally confined to the j coast, which, however, is by no means gener ally insalubrious. The resources of the coun- ! try are undoubtedly great; and it has recent- I lv been discovered that tho cotton plant flour- * islics there, and produces abundantly. I he present is an auspicious time for France to undertake the subjugation of this niagnifi- ! cent country, with the view of incorporating it j into the territory of France with the rest of I her African colonies. She lias all the essential i material on hand—both of men and means , and she can have no fears of her faithful ally, j England, throwing any obstacles in the way, \ who has just acquired such iiiuueusc acccs- 1 sions to her already overgrown dominions in Asia.— the. Republican. + Philip Easters has been sentenced to jail in King and Queen county, Va., for six months, \ and fined fifty dollars, for disturbing a Metho- | dist meeting. TELEGRAPHIO. Expressly for the Daily Hun. FOUR DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. AKHIVAI, OP THE ATLANTIC. Columbia, S. C- Alay 12, 1806. The Steamship Atlantic has arrived at New York, bringing Liverpool dates to the 30th ult. The Liverpool Market was easier, with £d decline in lower grades. Sales, 27,000 bales. Consols are quoted at 92J —a slight decline since last advices. The British Government, it is expected, will make arrangements for anew loan. Further by tho America. Boston, May 10. The Turkish Grand Council has decided to dismiss the Hospodars from the Principalities, and to appoint Safid Effendi Ottoman Commis sioner. It is reported that Napoleon’s impatience terminated the Peace Conference sooner than was intended, so that the arrangement of the difficulties concerning the Danube was left un finished. Italy still suffers from disturbances. The latest telegraphic advices from London, on Friday evening, 25th ult., stated that the funds closed heavy at ] to j} lower than the day before. The depression was owing to the reports of anew government loan of £10,000,- 000 in addition to funding £5,000,000. The decrease of bullion in the bank was £1,100,- 000. +. Departure of the Nicaragua Emigrants. We were on board the schooner Alinna Schiffer last evening, just prior to her depar ture. Her decks were crowded with as noble a band of emigrants as ever started forth onany adventure—good men, and true, from various walks of life, but one in purpose, and indul ging in one only hope the noblest hope that can inspire humanity—that of contributing to the foundation of a vigorous republic. They numbered about two hundred and thirty in all —stout, manly forms all of them, and evident ly the right sort of material for anew and unsettled country. About one hundred and seventy-five of them were under Col. John A. Jaquess, who, from the first, has his heart’s warmest sym pathies enlisted in behalf of the new republic, and who now repairs thither for the purpose of putting those sympathies into practical use. From our knowledge of the Colonel, and from the physical appearance of the band who accompany him, we feel safe in the prediction that he will give a good account of himself, whatever fortunes may betide them. Some twenty or thirty of the crowd—not under Col. Jaquess—were from Mississippi, a state that never fails to be represented whenever colonization or fighting may be go ing on. But the most interesting portion of the emigrants were several lowa farmers and their families—wives, daughters, and suckling babes —wearied of the chilly North, and am bitious of sticking their spades into the fertile soil of the tropics. The adventurousness of such men, in taking their wives and children with them to Nicaragua at this time, was a matter of no little wonder nml admiration to the comfort-loving city-dwellers who clus tered around them. But Daniel Boone was a man of that kind, and is forgotten now? We could not remain to seethe schooner off, but suppose it must have been a sufficiently in teresting and exciting scene, as a great crowd of citizens were clustered on the adjoining vessel, in order to take a last farewell of their friends in the adventurous crowd. God speed the Alinna Schiffer and her noble cargo ! — K. O. Cresent. A Grand Swindler.—Look out for Him. There is a man passing through this coun try passing counterfeit Gold Dollars. The following is the way he “takes” the unsus pecting in. He goes to a house and buys some small trifle, such as chickens or eggs, gives one of these base coins, and gets the change, and then goes on to the next house, and goes through the same as at the last.— He is a grand scamp and the people should be on the look out for him. —Rome Southerner. Virginia American Convention’ Richmond, Alay 8. The Virginia American Convention ad journed last night, after appointing electors for the Congressional and Senatorial districts and counties. Messrs. John AI. Botts, Thos. S. Flournoy, A. 11. Stuart and John S. Cariisle were elected for the State at large. Resolutions were adopted ratifying the nomination of Air. Fillmore, endorsing him as true to the Union and the Constitution, know ing no North, no South, no East, no West but looking to the interests of the whole coun try. Also endorsing Air. Donelson as a friend of the Union, patriotic and faithful to the Constitution. The third resolution condemns the squatter sovereignty doctrine of the Ne braska bill, under which aliens vote in viola tion of the naturalization laws; and the ascen dency of anti-slavery sentiments is secured in every territory hereafter to be formed. The prospective spirit and harsh invectives of the Democratic party towards the American par ty are declared to be unjustifiable and unpa triotic. The last resolution declares the Dem ocratic party responsible for the embarrassed condition of the finances of Virginia. Cutting a Swell in Borrowed Dresses. The New York Tribune has solved a mys tery which it says has puzzled many: why wo men should trail through the dirty streets of New York costly dresses made several inches too long for the wearer. These dresses are not so made for the wearers—they were originally made for taller women, and are borrowed. A person well skilled in all such matters lias as certained beyond the possibilily of dispute that most of the women seen in Broadway with costly dresses sweeping the pavement at their heels have either borrowed or bought the ar ticles second-hand at an old clothes shop where they let out such things by the month, week, day, or for single promenade. Severe Storm. New Orleans, Alay 8 This section of country was visited by a se vere storm yesterday. The telegraph wires have been blown down, and at Baton Rouge i several houses wero prostrated. Among the many preparations now in use for the restoring, preserving and beautify ing the hair, there are none that we can recom mend with more confidence than Prof. YVood’s llair Restorative, now in general use through out the States. This preparation possesses the most invigorating qualities, nnd never fails in producing the most happy results when ap plied according to directions.
