COLUMBIJB: Friday Morning, .May IW| IHSO. liARMKHT CITY CIIIODIiATIOSI. Artificial Sllkspinniutu The I‘aris correspondent of ihe Loudon At las, says that a savant of the (ormer city, rea rming upon the fact that silkworms obtain their raw material from the mulberry leaf alone, set about analyzing the leaf, und by boiling it to a thick paste, has succeeded in producing every variety of silk in immense quantities. The aforesaid correspondent pro fusses to liuve seen several yards of the new fabric, and pronounces it equal to the best worm silk, only somewhat less lustrous. It can be furnished at 5 francs per pound,—l2o francs cheaper than the ordinary article. The story is very Frencby, but is of immense im portance if true. Till better informed, we forbear to speculate upon the great changes in cotton markets, ball rooms, and society gen erally, which such a discovery would surely tiring about; but, upon the principle of taking time by the forelock, it behooves tho upper ten to keep a sharp look out for some new fab ric, sufficiently costly to preserve “proper distinctions” and those lines and boundaries which apparel chiefly marks out and maintains. Meanwhile a suggestion—what think the haul ton of gossamer dresses woven of those threads upon which the Night strings her sparkling heads—in a word, spidor webs ? A dress of such airy material could only be aflorded in the “very best society.” - - ♦ T “ We learn that a negro man fell from tho l’assengcr Train of the Montgomery and West Point Hail Road, going West on Wednesday morning, and was crushed to death. The acci dent occured about one mile from Chchaw. Erratum. In stating tho position of Senator Toombs on tho Danish Sound dues, in yesterday’s issue, wc were led into error by the contemporary from whom wo copied. His position was, that the treaty with Denmark could only bo repeal ed in accordance with its own terms— "or by a new treaty.” Tho damage done on tho Nashville and Chat tanooga railroad, by the late freshet, occurred at the Wnrtrnce bridge. Os course allthrough business has been measurably suspended. Dead. Tho hen which paid us a visit a day or two sinco, wo regret to learn, has gone tho way of all slosh, fish, and fowl. Her “boss,” a col ored man, yesterday guillotined her ! 110 says he hated to do it, but she troubled him—was a gadabout, vexatious, and would not stay with him. And for this ho put a quietus upon her! The truth is, wc expect, that thero was no sympathy between them. Asfor the lion, now that she has gone, we feel bound to dcclaro that she was an uncommon hen, and evident ly of a literary turn of mind ; one of tho last acts of her life was to look over tho papers on our table, which sho did with evident and ar dent curiosity. Flight of Wildcat Bankers. We find the following paragraph in the money article of the last Philadelphia Bulle tin : “ Our private dispatches to-day announce tho f'ailuro and flight of a hanking firm in Chi cago, (Messrs. Preston & C 0.,) and another in Geneva, 111., (Messrs. Barnes & C 0.,) who have been concerned iu the Planters’ Bank at Dal ton, Ga. A Canadian merchant has recovered SB,OOO damages of the Montreal Telegraph line, he having lost that much on flour, through tho company's neglect to keep him posted. His Now York agent advised him of the decline in time him to save himself: but tho mes sage was not promptly forwarded. Procras tination is said to ho thief of time; also, as it seems above, of money. The Tennessee Freshet. Tho Tennessee papers are full of freshot paragraphs, detailing tho immense damages to property and even an occasional loss of life. Never before was there such a visita tion of disaster iu that State. Among other exciting incidents related, is the following: But tho most melancholy result was at Lynu ville, on tho turnpikejroail a about|fourteeu miles north of Pulaski. Lyun creek, running through the town, rose to sucli a heighten Tuesday morning, and so suddenly, as to destroy almost without warning a house occupied by a man named Kiehardson, situated in the lower part of the village within in some twenty foot of the main road. Tho building was crushed in a few moments, the father and mother finding them selves with an iufaut drifting down the angry torrent, two other children having perished in bed at the time the house fell. After Boating with the wreck about three quarters of a mile, the whole family lodged against a tree, the father severely injured, tho children dead, and the mother so jammed amongst the drift, as with the best efforts of the husband barely able to keep her head above the roaring wa ters. Iu this condition they wero discovered a lit tle after daylight, and heroically rescued by a young man named Isaac Bearden, who swam his horse to the spot, declaring his iuseution, to “save them or perish iu the attempt’’ Others finally aided him in the geuerous en deavor. Burglarious. The Montgomery Journal has the follow ing: A prisoner who, a few days since, was lib erated from jail ou bail, as he was about leav ing, informed the sheriff that he could show him something amusing. After asking the otticor to examino the floor, which he did without observing anything pe culiar; the prisoner pointed out a small trap dooi, about a foot square, and so ingeniously fitted as to escape the ordinary observation of the eye. On raising the trap, a small cell was found beneath it, containing a large amount of burglars’ tools, such as saws, augurs, files, “jimmeys,” skeleton keys and moulds for keys, which fitted every lock in the building. Thiß was the work of the noted burglar, John son, who broke jail some months ago, and has since been recaptured. He is now in the cage, where he wil not again get a chance, soon, to write amusing letters. The wonder is, how he could have obtained such extensive mate rials. Doubtless from accomplices outsido. GEORGIA ITEMS. We learn from Milledgcville papers, that the ceremony of laying the Corner stone ol’ the new Georgia Lunatic Asylum, was duly performed last week. After prayer by the Itev. Dr. Tabnage, an able address was deliv ered by Hon. W. T. Gould, of Augusta, and the Stone was then formally laid, with Masonic ceremonies, by acting Grand Master It. W. Wm. 8. Rockwell. An elegant collation was furnished at the close of the ceremonies by Dr. Green, Huperintendant of the Asylum. The Chronicle office (Augusta) is now lit with Gas made from a portable “Gas-Maker,” located on the premises. There is an agency in Augusta for these machines, and the Chron icle pronounces their gas to be better than the gas,” and only half as costly. The Southern Recorder says of the Thoinas ton and Harnesville Road, that it will proba bly he linished in time for the growing crop. Harnesville and Thomaston are reported to he looking up, and rapidly improving. Wo learn from the same source that Mr. George Walker, of Pulaski, is making the ex periment of an Artesian well. K has attained the depth of 102 feet, with every prospect of success. The Recorder speculates upon the results, if good pure water were obtainable in our southern counties, and thinks lands would thereby bo greatly enhanced in value. The Supreme Court niet in lUilledgeville on Monday last, Judge® Deunirig and McDonald, presiding. There were only five cases on the docket. ALABAMA ITEMS. Rail Road Collision. —There was a collis ion on Monday night, on the Montgomery and W'est Point Road near Auburn, between a pas senger arid freight train, both bound up. The Journal says : The engine, running into the lumber cars, was completely demolished, and we learn that the engineer was severely, though not danger ously scalded. No others were hurt, which seems providential, us there were somo 200 passengers on the train. The lumber train bad stopped to repair some accident, and had no signal but a single light, which was mis taken by the engineer on the mail train for the signal of a way passenger, until too late to avoid tho collision. Fatal Casualty. —Mr. Thomas McCrary of Pike county, was almost instantly killed on Monday last, in tho city of Montgomery, by being thrown out of his wagon against a tree. In falling lie was caught between the tree and the wheels, and so crushed and mangled that he never breathed after the accident. The de ceased lived near Troy, and leaves a wife and several children. The Selma Reporter 14th, says the river at that place had risen three feet within the pre vious four days, and is now in good boating order. Tho Cahaba Gazette, (Dem.) endorsed by the Selma Reporter, (K. N.) denounces the late removal of tho Cahaba Land Office, as iniqui tous, “ dono just to please Mr. Shorter,” dam aging to President Pierce’s future prospects, and worthy of being inquired into. Four Dkf.u at two Shots !—Mr. Thomas Little, who oversees for Col. George W. Clift, living seven miles North of this place, killed four full grown deer one morniug last week. He had taken a stand at a “ Lick,” with a double barrelled gun, aud the four all coming together, he fired both barrels in quick succes sion, thereby killing the whole ibui\ —Central Alabamian ‘hid. Accident. —Mr. Edward Patterson, liviug six miles below Jonesborou’, met with a se rious accident a few days ago. Ho had been out on a doer hunt, and came home late at night, and while in the act of laying liis gun upon a rack it wont oil', three buckshot pass ing through his left hand, tearing it very bad ly.—/*. Chops. —Serious apprehension exists among our planters for the safety of the Cotton crop. The cool nights of the last four or five days havo caused the lice to make their appearance on the plants, and if the weather does not change very soon, the crops will be materially injured, if not wholly destroyed. Corn and Oats are backward, and are suffer ing considerably for rain.— Run. Recorder 15/*. Fatal Accident. —On Friday last, as Mr. A. 11. Kimball was coming down the Railroad on a hand ear, some four miles above Enter prise, himself working the crank, his hand slipped from it, and the crank struck him about the middle, throwing him in front of tho car, which passed over him, mutilating his body in a frightful manner. Medical aid was of no avail, and death ensued on Saturday morning. Deceased was a son of F. G. Kim ball, Esq., and was much loved and respected by all w ho knew him.— Mobile Even. XewsVlth. TELEGRAPHIC. Latest from Kansas. St. Louis, May 12.—Robinson, in attempt ing to leave Kausas was detained by the citi zens of Lawrence. He was fieeing to avoid arrest under an indictment by the Grand Ju ry. Reeder has been cited to nppear before the jury at Leeomptou, on a charge of contempt of Court, lie refused to obey the citation, and warned the officers not to touch him at their peril. The Marshal will return with the dragoous to effect his arrest. Judge I.eeompt charged tho Grand Jury to indict all the State officers and members of the free soil Convention at Topeka, but no indict ment had been found. Washington, May 18.—In the United States Senate to-day Mr. Cass concluded his speech on Squatter Sovereignty. The deficiency bill passed both houses, the report of tho Commit tee on Conference cancelling many amend ments, having been adopted. An impression exists here, which is doubt less well founded, that the New Minister from Nicaragua will be officially received. Mr. Buchanan arrived to-night. The Na tional Hotel was serenaded, and there was a private reception. The political leaders here have arranged that the entire North-West (except Michigan) shall cast its vote as a unit at Cincinnati for either Pierce or Douglas. Michigan insists on Buchanan. The officers of the Orizaba have been offi cially advised forcibly to resist the British fri gate Eurydice, in nuy future attempt to board her at San Juan. It is said that the Emperor Alexander 11, will soon recognise Isabella 11, and thnt Spaih will send an ambassador to St. Petersburg. If so, this will be the first time the rulers of Spain and Russia have held diplomatic inter couse with each other. Kunaas Matters. We learn from various sources, that the tide of emigration to Kansas from the free States has dwindled down very much for some weeks past, while that from the South is ra pidly increasing. We copy below several in teresting items of Kansas news : Westport, Mo., April 2‘J. —Hurrah for Georgia! Hurrah for Alabama! Hurrah lor South Carolina and Tennessee! Now, there are in this vicinity, lately landed, over 500, perhaps more, emigrants from these four States. There are not half enough public houses, ami the citizens have turned out to get the emigrants comfortable places for lodging. All the vacant houses and tenantless rooms of every description have been furnished by Ma jor Buford, for it is the bulk of the company that, at this time, makes the crowd. Add to all Ibis, that to-day the F. X. Aubry arrived with a large number of moro Southerners, and that they are likewise landing in great num bers at Levenworth and Atchison, and you can see wliat the South is doing. If these things continue long, there will be no strug gle at all, for the South is now several hundred ahead of the North in regard to this Spring’s emigration, whilo, at the same time, tho South is increasing every day, and the North falling oft". To-day, the Yankee hotel at Kansas City looked somewhat like a “ban quet hall deserted none of the Southerners, scarcely stop there. The healthy reaction that seems to be taking place at the North, is stopping, to a certain extent the flood of Abo litionism that threatened to overrun Kansas. Major Buford’s company will outfit here, and in a few days set out for the Territory. They are a fine-looking set of young men, and if they make as good settlers as they are doubtless good fighters, Kansas will be greatly indebted to the originator of the expedition. Three weeks ago, when the principal travel to the Territory appeared to be from the wrong source, the Freesoilers, as soon as they got into Kansas, would be so insolent and insult ing as to make it very unpleasant to travel the same road with them. But they are get ting very quiet. It is now thought that Sheritf Jones cannot live. He suffers immense pain, and is spitting blood; all his organs are completely paralyzed. His groans are heart-rending, and from the fact that he is to be turned over in the bed every few moments in the day and night you can guess what they are for, and the nursing he requires. We have much rain. The wet and mud are almost intolerable. H. C. P. Kansas, May 3, 1856. Major Buford’s company have all gone into the territory. Yesterday morning, before leaving here, they were very eloquently ad dressed by Mr. A. Baker of Alabama, and Col. A. Anderson of Lexington, Missouri, and at the close of the speaking the Major was pre sented with a fine horse, bridle and saddle.— Tho horse was given by Mr. Samuel L. McKen uey, of Westport, a gentleman of wealth and high standing. The horse is a spirited and well made sorrel, which cost $l5O. The sad dle, for which S4O was paid, was bought by subscription ; and the briddle was presented by Mr. Dillon at this place. The presentation was made as a testimonial of Major Buford’s “ services in behalf of the cause of Slavery in Kansas.” Another letter dated at Westport says ; Although there is a deep feeling of sympa thy on the part of the people here for Jones and his family, and au intense desire to avenge this outrage upon them, yet, all is quiet at present. What will be the result of these continued outrages, it is at present impossible to anticipate. The great jam still continues, and is increas ing every day. Two or more boats arrived this evening, augmenting the crowd. To-day a great many tents were made, and so soon as they can be used we will be somewhat relieved. 1 forgot in my last letter to mention the hand some manner in which Major Buford’s com pany were received. On their arrival at Kan sas City they were met by a delegation from Westport, beaded by a brass band, a fine com pany of sprightly young men, and welcomed by Gen. G. W. Clark, who was responded to by Major Buford. This took place on the wharf. Afterward the crowd assembled in front of the “ American,” and called out sev eral gentlemen for speeches. Instinct. Mr. l’utuam, some eighteen months since, brought to liis residence on Floyd street, two fine patridges. These he kept and fed atten tively until last spring—one year ago—when they were set free, about two miles from Mid dletown and ten miles from the city. During the intense cold the past winter these birds re turned to the residence of their kind protec tor. One bleak wintry day Mr. Putnam was astonished by a rapping at his window, and found the two patridges seeking entrance. He instantly recognized them as his old friends by peculiar marks upon their bodies. Os course, he could but take them in and treat them kind ly. They are now habitues of his grounds, “circulating” promiscuously among the fowls and making themselves at home within and without doors. We have never, in the course of our reading, met with a more striking in stance of the development of instinct, It ap pears, indeed, beyond belief, that a couple of patridges released from a cage, twelve miles from the place where they were confined, should, after a lapse of nearly two years, re turn to their old home—driven there by the pangs of hunger and cold.— Louisville Courier. We remember discussing with a friend, a ew days since, the tumeability and domesti cation of patridges, with aconclusion to which tho above is a contradiction. Could they be raised as our common fowls are, they would be a most delightful addition to the bill of fare, ordinary. Specially adapted are they to the palate of tho sick, and to weak digestors. A piece of plump partridge-bosom, duly browu ed and duly buttered, is a morsel which no man may decline. We trust Mr. Putnam will experiment on his two friends, and that they may become the Adam and Eve of anew breed —the partridgio domesticus. But we are told by those who have tried it, that this same “in stinct” alluded to above, is the real difficulty in the way. Repeated attempts have been made to rear tame partridges, from the eggs, but thus far, in vain. Wild turkeys, however, have been often domesticated thus ; and as all turkeys were wild till their “time come,” it may also be that tho time has come for par tridges to yield submissively to man—no long er to be chased with net and gun, through bush and bramble, but confiued to the poultry yard to be ebased when wanted, by tho house-boy and the cook. Partridges can no more evade their manifest destiny, than can Bonapartes, or Turkey, or Nicaragua. ■Pi® Hon. Mr. Herbert, of California, wh* kiHed the Irish waiter at Willard’s Hotel, ” ashingtion last week, is a native of South Carolina. TELEGRAPHIC. ♦ Expressly for the Daily Bun. New Orleans, May 14. The market declined ’c. on Tuesday and the sales reached 10,000 bales. Middling lOjc. Receipts for four days only twelve thousand bales. Coming to a Head. Tilings in the neighborhood of San Juan, may ere long be expected to attain a focus. — Orders have been sent out in the Orizaba, to the United States war vessel now at San Juan, to resist any attempt on the part of the British frigate Eurydice, to interfere with the lauding or transit of American citizens. — The Jiurydice has her government orders to make such interference; and if both vessels obey orders, we shall once more be at dagger’s point with Britain. We have no desire for a war with England. But believing, as we do, that British influence is to be finally extinguished on the Western Continent; and that American principles are to spread from the Northwestpassage to Terra del Fuego, we have no complaints to make against the inevitable “onward” of manifest destiny, or the manner of that onward. Never have we subscribed to the doctrines of the peace societies. They are ahead of the age by some centuries--at present, wholly imprac ticable. And though men may talk eloquent ly’ of the horrors of war, and declaim against French Revolutions, true philosophy bids us remember, that for the present, the price of liberty is blood, and the musket the best pro tection against oppression. Wars are the mor al thunder storms that purify the air ; and as things are now constituted, it is as wise to de nounce the one as the other. While therefore we do not long for, or wish to precipitate war with Great Britain, we think it unwise to complain because that inevitable event, sooner or later, seems likely to arrive sooner than most speculators had imagined.— And if it be really at hand, we congratulate the country on the justice of the cause, the impor tant considerations which are to induce it, and the glorious gains to result from it. In this connection we give the following items from the Washington letter to the Charleston Courier: “ The commander of the Eurydice is Capt. Tavleton, an ominous name, and he is a de scendant of Col. Tarleton, so well known in the South during the revolution. The name of the commander of the Potomac is also histo rical, though I do not vouch for the fact that he is of the family of the Paulding who was one of the captors of Andre. He is a relative of the former Secretary of the Navy, J. K. Paulding. The l’otomac is, as I am informed by naval officers who have seen the Eurydice, a much more powerful ship than that, and would, in a single combat, soon sink her. But Captain Tarleton has a dispatch steamer at his com mand, by which lie can soon communicate with the British Admiral on the West India station. The British fleet on that station is more than usually powerful. The Admiral is under the orders of Mr. Crampton so far as this affair is concerned.— Capt. Tarleton, we may be assured, has not acted without orders. Much now depends upon the discretion and prudence ot our Executive, and alsi upon the honor of Mr. Crampton. To-morrow despatch es are expected from Mr. Dallas, embracing a courteous but firm and decided refusal to with draw Mr. Crampton. Will our government dismiss him? This is still a question among outsiders; but, if there is sincerity in Cabinet declarations, he will be dismissed. No diffi culty could result from his dismissal, per se, but has he not it in liis power to aggravate the difficulty between us and England ? 1 have reason to believe that the President, notwithstanding the earnest opposition of Mr. Marcy and Mr. Cushing, will, after a while, recognise the Rivas-Walker government.” Western Giants tn their Slumbers. The Burlington (Iowa) State Gazette states that while workmen were engaged in excavat ing for the cellar of Gov. Grimes’ new build ing on the edrner of Main and Valley streets, they came upon an arched vault sonic ten feet square, which on being opened was found to contain eight human skeletons of gigantic pro portions. Tlio walls of the vault are about fourteen inches thick, well laid up with cement or some other indestructible mortar. The vault is about six feet deep from the base of tho arch. The skeletons are in a good state of preservation, and we venture to say are the largest human remains ever found, being a lit tle over eight feet long ! The Immaculate Conception. Diplomatic intercouse has been suspended between Mexico and the Holy See, and the Mexican Minister, M. Larinza, has hauled down his Hag anti decamped with bag and baggage. Cause unknown—but supposed to be connected in some way or other with the doc trine of the Immaculate Conception. It is somewhat curious, that about eight months ago this dogma was nowhere reeeived with such extravagant demonstrations of joy as in Mex ico. Almost every house was illuminated. One little circumstance, however, ought to be noted iu this connection, and that is, that eve ry house that remained in darkness was mulc ted in the sum of ten dollars—the ownerfoot ing the bill. On the 28th ult., a couple of Germans were married in Cincinnati by Esq. Rowecamp. The husband came to this country some time before he sent for his wife. She came by New Orleans, while lie had gone to meet her in New York. They never met until a few weeks ago. Iu the meantime both had obtained divorc es, both had married again, and both had lost their partners. A Brutal Parent. Wallace, alias Stevenson, a man connected with the Jullien Minstrels, as violinist, was ar rested on the 6th inst.,, at Nashville, Tennes see, for brutally flogging a little boy, said to be liis son. The poor child’s body was amass of black raw flesh, sickening to the sight. The inhuman parent was committed to jail. Many of tho citizens were greatly incensed with the man and wished to deni summarily with him Jon Bull in Nicaragha. Meagher’s “Irish News” accuses England of being at the bottom of all the Central Amer ican trobles. It says : “ England is there—a deadly serpent in the chappnrel of that rich and beatious region— and it will be her’s, unless driven from it by such a volley as made her reel at the Bayou Bienvenue, and sent her home a cripple from New Orleans.” a O office OF THE Daily m ■ Columljus, On.. .q„ v ■ Nothing doing in tlieeofiun market. jH Ntw York.
