Satariliy Morning, May 17, 1H 6.
liAKMKHT CITV t'IRCULATION.
Our columQH this morning, are unusually
full of stirring ami important nows. The
reader, in search of the latest intelligence, will
always find it under the general caption,
••Telegraphic Items.’
Our acknowledgements are due, and are
most grntefully tendered our brethren of the
city press, and of the State, for the vory kind
manner in which they speak of us and of our
recent return to the corps Editorial. Occu
pying a neutral position, and determined as
heretofore, to keep coolandneyer fling “mud,”
we anticipate from our future intercourse and
communion with them, through the Sun, a re
newal of those pleasures which we have for
merly enjoyed, and which havo been among
the brightest of our life.
♦
Fresh Meat.
Avery considerable portion of mankind
live, in accordance w ith Scripture, by the sweat
of the brow—really hard, tiresome, enervating,
wcaring-nway labor. To support such in
health and comfort, much animal food, despite
the vegetarians, isabsolutely requisite; but the
high prices of this food in very many quarters
of the globe, necessitate limited supplies, and
ns a consequence, the hard-working man, who
deserves a better fate, is meagrely fed, and
measurably donied the kind and quantity of
diet best adapted to his wants. Asa further
consequence, he suffers more from fatigue,
lives a shorter life, is less able to work, and
hence gets loss pay. The high prices of ani
mal food are not caused by limited natural
supplies, but the location of them. The earth
affords a bounteous store of fish and flesh—
enough and to spare,ifor all her children; but
this store is not equally distributed; and
while thousands of cattle are slaughtered for
their hides on tho plains of South America
alone, and are there left to rot, in many other
countries fresh meat is almost wanting, and
the very sniff of “ roast ” or “ boiled ” a lux
ury. In Ireland for instance, the “potato and
the pig ” are often the poor man’s only food—
potato all the year, and pig very seldom—one
pig, potatoes plenty. This seems a very un
fortunate and unwise arrangement, but is only
so at first sight. Tho unequal distribution of
various kind of food, leads to exchange, in
other words to commerce ami tho carrying
trado ; and thus mouths are filled on sea and
land; friendly relations established between
various points of the compass ; and mankind
gradually advance towards their final desti
ny—a gigantic, working, harmonious family.
Vet hitherto, tho vessels have not mastered
tho fresh-moat problem. They could not, to
uny great extont, transport live stock; and
the laws of decay have put a veto on tho car
rying of lresh-meat, butchered. At last how
ever, a process has been discovered by which
meat may be kept fresh, sweet, and wholesome,
from three to eighteen months—long enough
to carry it more than once around the globe
and of course to any point on its surface. It
is very simple, and the discovery of a French
man. The meat is “boned” as far as practi
cable, then dipped in a bath of boiling gelatine
for six minutes, and hung up. At the end of
two days, it is dipped in a solution of taunin
and water—l3 dwts. of taunin to 2J gallons
of water—and again hung up to dry for twen
ty to thirty days, and tho process is complete.
Rationale —The gelatine forms a pellicle, im
pervious to air, and enclosing the meat thor
oughly; tho taunin has somewhat the effect
which it has upon hides, and is thus found to
inorcasothe preservative power of the gelatine.
[Wo use tho expression “ boiling gelatine,”
but strictly speaking it does not boil. It is
put iu a kettle, which is suspended in a larger
kettle of boiling water.] The result of this
disoovory will be cheap, and plentiful supplies
of fresh meat, for the laboring classes every
where. Nor is the poor man only interested.
Epicures can now enjoy the tit-bits of foreign
lands in all their native excellence—tender
loins and masticnble steaks from South Amer
ican pampas, and even an Apician repast of
peacock’s tougues from Africa.
A company has beon formed iu France to go
into the new trade, and have already several
large establishments at various places in Eu
rope. We learn too, from the New York Post,
that they are about opening a house in Cin
cinnati on a large scalo; and we hope, ere long,
to try our dentals on a steak front Ohio or
Kansas. We have seen many a Georgia steak
which was utterly impracticable; and whose
makers seemedfairly iudictablefor infringment
of the Gutta Percha patents. Wo havo not en
larged upon tho necessity and dcsirableuess of
animal food for hard-working men, because wo
do not consider it an open question; especially
in the South, whose sleek and shining Sam
bos attest tho value of a due proportion of
hog with hominy. The physique of tho South
ern slave, is a perpetual rebutter of vegeta
rian theories; as his shining face, mory laugh,
aud contented disposition are auswers to the
whinings of mock philanthophy.
Georgians for Kansas.
We learn that Capt. Moore, of Upson coun
ty, says the Times and Sentinel of the 16th,
will start for Kansas, in a few days, with a
company of thirty men. Tho citizens of Up
son contributed $1,200 iu aid of tho emigra
tion.
We also learn that Capt. F. A. Boykin, of
Merriwethcr county, has raised a company of
twenty-five men, and will shortly leave for
Kansas. The citizens of the county have furn
ished the men with abundant means to make
the journey.
We also learn that Capt. Cook, at the head
of a company of Emigrants, left Adairsville,
Ga., on the 6th inst., and that Capt. A. S.
Hamilton, at the head of another company,
left the same place on the Bth inst.
Anew paper for the benefit of the working
men of Georgia—now a very large, intelligent
and worthy class—has been started at Athens,
Georgia. It is called “ The Laborer,” and is
published monthly by I. S. Gardner, at fifty
cents per annum. The working men should
support it, and can cosily run it to a weekly
if they will
CUSOHGIA ITKMH,
A Medical student writing from Philadel
phia to Savannah, says that his opportunities
for the acquisition of medical knowledge were
much better in Savannah than in Philadelphia.
“The more f see in the hospitals here (Phila
delphia,) tho more 1 have gratefully to ac
knowledge, what a great advantage we had iu
Savannah over the students here. They are
not allowed to make any examination, nor to
practico either hand or ear, aud often 1 feel
compelled to tell my friends, that 1 urn very
glad that I remained last winter in Savan
nah.”
A writer iu the Republican, takes the above
extract as his text for a sermon; and duly sets
forth the folly of supposing that nothing at
home can ho good— while everything foreign
must be very superior. The same sermon has
been preached before, but it is well to keep
dinging it into tho public ear, until they learn,
at least, what is good for them.
Monsieur Raymond Thomassy, (Commis
sioner for the Italian Salt Work;: aud those of
tno French West Indies) furnishes to the Sa
vannah Republican, a very interesting article
upon tho “savor of tho world,” —its nature,
places and quantities in which it is found, its
importance in manufactures, agriculture, as a
soaaoner, &c., &c. Mr. Thomassy has it in
contemplation to establish salt-works below
Savannah, on a tract of land finely adapted to
that purpose, aud owned, we believe, by the
State. We trust Mr. T. will meet with all
necessary encouragement; and consider it use
less to enlarge upon the desirableuoss of a
scheme, which if successful, would so greatly
cheapen one of the prime necessities of our
people, keep the State always well salted, aud
perhaps enable us in due time to supply other
states with this great sine qua non of Nature.
The Superior Court of Decatur county, ad
journed on the Bth after near two week’s ses
sion. Two convicts were sentenced by the
Court to tho l’ouitentiary,—Char’s Henderson
for an assault “with attempt to kill,” —5 years;
Aurelius W. McGruder, for “stabbing,”—2
years.
The Railroad meetiug which was to have
been held at Bainbridge on the 12th, and at
which, books of subscription to the Main
Trunk Railway, were to have been opened,
lias been postponed to tho 17th inst., in con
sequence of sickness in the family of Colonel
Munnorlyn, Commissioner.
Tho Augusta, Atlanta and Nashville Tele
graph line, from Augusta to Chattanooga and
Tullahoma, Tenn., is now open and in work
ing ordor.
A Convention of the American party of
Georgia has been called, to meet at Macon, on
the Bth of July next, “to consider of the ap
proaching Presidential election, and such oth
er matters as may bo thought conducive to the
interest of the State aud of tho Union. Each
county to send a number of Delegates equal to
its reresentation in both branches of the Leg
islature.”
We take from the Brunswick (Ga.) Herald
the following description of Brunswick as she
now appears :
“ Our docks are enlivened by the arrival of
vessels laden with rails, spikes, &c., for the
Brunswick and Florida Rail ltoad, aud by the
bustle and activity incident thereto. The ring
of iron, as it is placed upon the cars, which
stand ready to receive the rails as they are de
livered from the holds of the vessels, falls
pleasantly upon our ears, as we pen this arti
cle. Every rattle of the bars, every ring of
the iron, seems to speak in plain language,
and to say, “ The road so looked for, and
so much desired, is now actually being con
structed.” The shrill whistle of the locomo
tive wakes tho whole town at daylight, and
seems disposed to proclaim to the sleepers that
tho indefatigable track men are off to their
work on the road. The trussel bridge of two
spans of lot) feet each, designated for the St.
Ille River, is boing framed at tho saw mill of
the Bruuswick Mill Company. The frames of
houses are to be oeeu gradually overtopping the
beautiful cedars and live oaks which grace our
city lots and squares, and other signs of re
turning life and animation, are plan ly visible.
New stores have been established, and nter
chants, attracted by the opening prospects of
Brunswick, and the salubrious climate, arrive
here by the boats, inquiring for stores to rent.
Messrs. Savage & Harris have almost com
pleted their large warehouse at the foot of
Monk street, and we have information that
other warehouses and wharves are about to be
constructed. Brunswick is “looking up,”
aud wo predict that the day is not far distant
when she will take her rank among the mari
time ports of the Southern Atlantic coast.”
The LaGrango Reporter states that it is in
contemplation by the Quarterly Conference of
the M. E. Church in that city, to purchase tho
LaGrange Female College ntid present it to the
Georgia Conference. “Fivo thousand sub-
Ageuts will be appointed in various sections
ot the State to solicit contributions from those
who may be disposed to give their aid to the
undertaking. The College is situated on a
hill commanding a beautiful view of the towu
and country, with boarding arrangements for
one hundred young ladies. In fact, the build
ings are extensive, with laboratory, libraries,
and one of tho most elegant Chapels in the
South.”
A Strange Head.
The Napoleon (Ark.) Sentinel, of March 21,
says :
“ Wo were shown by Dr. Lebrader, a day or
two since, a most remarkable and singular
head—that of Foucher, a celebrated Chief of
the Creeks. The singularity of the head con
sists in two perfect mouths—a front and rear
mouth, with a remarkable fact that it made
no difference to his eating or feeding opera
tions which mouth he used, as either answered
the same purpose ; hut when ever he imbibed
from the back mouth drunkenness ensued much
sooner, than if he had taken it from the front.
Such a head is worthy of the study of anato
my of the medical faculty.”
‘V e find it so difficult to take in at one swal
low, the two swallows above, we shall require
a “ rear mouth” ourselves, to effect it.
“My dear, said Mrs. Dogberry’ to her
daughter, “ you should not hold your dress so
high crossing the street.”
“ Then ma, replied tho maiden, “ how
shall l show the beauty of my flounced panta
lettes that I have almost ruined my eyesight to
make ? I’m sure I don’t care if the beaux do
look at me.”
TELEGRAPHIC ITEM H.
From Washington.
Washington, May 14.
In tho United States Senate to-day, Mr.
Clayton denied tin-truth of thestntement made
by Mr. Crompton to Lord Clarendon, that he
had admitted the right of England to the Bay
Islands before the . igning of the Treaty o(
185(1. Mr. Clayton proved by Mr. Crittenden
that Mr. Crompton distinctly admitted in Feb
ruary last, that the statement that he (Mr.
Clayton) had ever admitted a British title to
Ruatun, was unfounded.
The House passed the hill granting a million
acres of land to Alabama and Florida, in aid of
the construction of Rail Roads in these States.
There is extreme danger that the bill for the
removal of the obstructions at the mouth of the
Mississippi, will be vetoed. A message on
Nicaraguan affairs will be sent to the House
to-morrow, recommending, it is said, a forci
ble maintenance of the Clayton Treaty. Padre
Vijil, presented his credentials to-day, and was
received and recognized as Minister of Nicara
gua. Tiie President, in his reception speech,
declared his intention to preserve the neutrali
ty laws.
The United States steamship Susquehanna
has been ordered to sail from Philadelphia to
morrow for Nicaragua.
The English papers received by the Atlan
tic, publish the Queen’s warrants placing the
colony of the Bay Islands under the authority
of the Governor of Jamaica, and tho matter
has occasioned considerable excitement in this
city.
From California —By the Empire City at
New Orleans we have California dates to the
21st alt. News from California, unimportant,
The George Law for New York has on board
nearly $2,000,000 iu gold.
The < tregon war continues. A body of reg
ulars had been defeated by the Indians at
Rogue River, ami twenty-eight of them killed.
Cassades had been captured by the Indians,
destroyed by fire, and several residents mas
sacred. It was reported that a thousand In
dians were approaching Dalles from the North.
Several other fights had occurred, hut the
whites were generally victorious.
In Washington Territory the Indians were
breaking out upon the settlements iu every di
rection.
The latest advices state that Col. D. Bucha
nan had defeated the Indians at Rogue River
and relieved the citizens in that vicinity.
Our intelligence from Centi-al America is
meagre. The Panama papers arc filled with
the official correspondence of the dignitaries
of State, the commander of the steamer and
others, in relation to the reeent riots. From
Nicaragua there is nothing new.
The Very Latest from Kansas.—A cor
respondent of the St. Louis Democrat, w r riting
from Lawrence, May 7th, states that the grand
jury had found indictments on a charge of
high treason against Ex-Gov. lleedcr. Gov.
Robison, Senator Lane, Roberts, arid other
Free State men.
News had been brought to Lawrence by Mis
sourians, that secret hand bills were in circu
lation, and forces were marshaling in the bor

to prepare for defence.
K. N. State Convention of Pennsylvania.
—Harrisburg, May 13,—The Kuow Nothing
Stato Convention is in session to-day at Edie
with closed doors ; sixty delegates in atten
dance. A. W. Benedict, has been selected as

object of the Convention, but it is generally
conceded that the twelfth section wing of the
party predominates. Gov. Johnson and Gen.
Small are among the delegates.
Later. —Resolutions were adopted ratifying
the nomination of Fillmore and Donelson ; de
nouncing the administration for repealing the
Compromise of 1850; aud condemning the

The ticket of the Union and State Conven
tion was then ratified, after which the Conven
tion adjourned.
The Edie delegates held a meeting, aud are

Highly interesting from Kansas.
Iu connection with the dispatch above, we
publish the following very full statement from
the telegraphic column of the Petersburg Ex
press:
St. Louis, May 10.—Star of the West, with
Kansas dates to Saturday last, arrived to-day.
She brings important news.
Gov. llohinson and family took passage on
the Star at Lexington. Whilo on the way
hither. Gov. Robinson was waited upon by a
committee appointed by the citizens, and noti
fied that they should detain him on the ground.
They stated that he was fleeing from the Ter
ritory to avoid arrest on an indictment for
treason, which had been found against him by
the Grand Jury of the United States District
Court. Robinson replied that he had boen in
formed by one of the jury, that an attempt
had been made to find a true bill, but that it
had failed.
This dhl not satisfy the committee, and they
insisted that Robinson should remain. Ho
finally consented on persuasion of Mr. Perkin
son, the captain of the boat, and Mr. Barnard,
of Baltimore. The committee agreed to send
a messenger to Kansas, to ascertain if an in
dictment had been found; if not, all the ex
penses of detention, were to be paid. The
•ommittee consisted of Gen. Shields, Mr.
Sawyer, and a number of the most respecta
ble citizeus of the place, who reported that a
dispatch from Loavenworthhad been received,
stating that an armed body of men were eri
route for Lawrence, for the purpose of de
stroying tho evidence taken by the committee.
While Reeder wits in attendance at the session
of the committee at Lecompton, on tho even
ing of the Bth, the Deputy Marshal served a
writ on him to appear before the Grand Jury
at that place, to answer a charge for contempt,
in having fai ed to comply with a summons of
the Grand Jury, previously served ou him
ll"eder .efused to obey the writ, aud appealed
to the Committtee to sustain him, but they de
cided that they had no power in the case.
Messrs. Howard and Sherman, however, ex
pressed it as their opinion, that Reeder was
protected from arrest by hh privilege as an
officer: but Oliver dissented and said that the
committee would not stand between him and
the Marshal.
Mr. Reeder said that although his life was
in danger in Lecompton, he would remain ou
his privilege in attendance on the sittings of
the committee, and warned the Marshaf and
his assistant, not to touch him at their peril.
The Marshal left, but was expected to return
on the ffth with a body of United States Dra
goons.
Judge Lecompte charged the Grand Jury on
the sth, to indict all State officers and mem
bers of the Legislature for high treason; but
up to the 9th, no such indictment had been
iound by the court, so far as the proceedings
had been made public. °

Tho Circuit Court at Montgomery commenced
its session on Tuesday, Judge Pettus on the
Bench —the docket is said to be large and im

The Florence Gazette 10th, reports “ tre

The Students of the University of Florence,
have put forth the first number of the Southern

The Cassville (Ga.,) Standard is pitching
into the Dadeville (Ala.,) Banner, on account of
the latter’s “bad spelling and bad grammar.”
If a man means well and makes himself intel
ligible, we don’t know hut that is enough.
These oddities of spelling and grammar, like
cross eyes in some human faces, have a cer
tain ludicrous effect, which is not displeasing.
Indeed the fun of the Standard’s attack is its
reiterations of the Banner’s blunders. For
instance, the Standard says :
“Speaking of a hail storm, the editor says—
‘ Many of the stones is said to have measured
six inches in circumference.’ Is they, indeed?
Are that a fact, Mr. Banner ?
“He thinks that ‘circumstances alters cases.’
Does they ?” ,
Tlio Dallas Gazette joins iu the hue and cry,
about the removal of the Cahawba Land Office,
and is hard down on “Mr. Shorter.” The
Clayton Banner therefere says, in explanation
and defence:—
It is well known that the greater part of
land to be entered at Cahawba, lies in this
section of the State, and iu procuring tho re
moval of the Land Office from Cahawba to
Greenville, Col. Shorter desired only to equal
ize the inconvenience in going to and from the
Land Office. Political influences had no agen
cy in effecting the removal, and the approval
of Col. Shorter’s energy here is not by any
means confined to any political party.
Mr. Lewis S. Robbins, discoverer of the pro
cess of manufacturing oil from rosin, is on a
visit to Mobile, in company with several gen
tlemen of means and influence from New Or
leans, for the purpose of forming a Company

manufactory. The News speaks highly of the
project and of the new oil.
