American Wagon Scat in France.
Mr. Francis, of New York City, says the
Scientific American, Inventor of the life-boat
which bears his name, has been experimenting
before Louis Napoleon on the river Seine, with
his Army Wagon Boat. The wagon was launch
ed in the water, where it floated like a boat.—
The men on board, to the number of sixteen,
went on the sides without being able, in spite
of all their efforts, to make the gunwale touch
the surface of the water. The wagon, after
that, was directed into the current of the riv
er, to show that a heavy’ load could be by that
means transported from one bank to another
without its being necessary- to take oft’ the
wheels, so that a train of these wagons could
continue to follow their route without the least
hindrance. Afterwards the train being de
tached, they manoeuvred the tumbril separate
ly like a row boat. The body of the Army
Wagon is made on the life boat principle, and
is very strong. The Emperor was highly pleas
ed with the experiment.

lord Clarendon, in the Paris Conference, re
commends the abolition of the temporal power
of the Pope of Rome, as conducive to the well
being of the Papal states, and the sovereign
authority of the Pope, himself ; and advises a
secularization of the government and tire adop

difficulties in the way, perhaps at Rome itself,
he thinks the proposed change may be effected
in the legations.
The Augusta Constitutionalist learns that a
man has been arrested in Villenow, Walker
co., Ga., charged with passing counterfeit bills
on the Planters’ Bank of Tennessee, and spu

Grasshoppers on Com and Cotton.
The Demopolis (Ala.) American learns that
the Grasshoppers have done much damage this
Spring in the neighborhood of Prairieville,
Marengo County. Just before the late rains,
says that paper, “ they came up out of the
ground in myriads, and cut down whole fields
of cotton and corn. Some planters have had
to plant their fields entirely over. We have
also heard that the cut worm had made its ap
pearance in one or two neighborhoods, destroy
ing both cotton and corn. Though we think
they are confined to one or two localities, and
have not become general all over the coun
try.”

Ruatan.
Scarcely have wo mustered the unpronounce
able names brought into general use and iu
terest, by the late war, ere another set of out
lundish ones, this tithe on our own continent,
claim our attention, and will ere long he la
miliar to our people. Among other little
| difficulties between the United States and
i Great Britain, is one iu regard to the island of
! Ruatan, and live others adjacent, lying in the
I hay of Honduras, some forty miles from I'i ux-
I illo, the capital of the Central American state
of Honduras, and two hundred miles from the
settlement known us Hntish Honduras. That
our readers may be fully posted, we gno, as
briefly as possible, the history ot tin’ dispute,
up to the preseut moment.
In the year 1850 a treaty was concluded he
tween the United States aud Great Britain,
known as the Claytou-Bulwer treaty, lromthc
names of the two representatives of the con
tracting powers at that time. Thu object of
that treaty was to preserve the balance of
power between the two governments, iu Cen
tral America. Both parties agreed never “to
occupy, or fortify, or colonize, or assume or
exercise any dominion over Nicaragua, Costa
Rica, the Mosquito Coast, or any part of Cen
tral America, or make use of any protection
which either affords or may afford, or any al
liance which either has or may have, to, or
with any State or people, for the purpose of
erecting any such fortification, or of occupy
ing, fortifying, or colonizing Nicaragua, Costa
Rica, the Mosquito Coast, or any part of Cen
tral America, or of assuming or exercising do
minion over the same.”
By treaty wish Spam in 1783, Great Britain,
after a long contest, acquired the right to the
country’ now known as British Honduras.—
Through respect to the title thus acquired,
and finally to settle and define the extent of
British dominion in Central America, this set
tlement of British Honduras was made exempt
from the provisions above quoted, as also “the
small islands in the neighborhood of the settlemen,
known as its dependencies.” In the year 1851,
Great Britain issued a proclamation, followed
by Royal warrant, claiming as hers the island
ot Ruatan, and the five islands adjacent,
known as Bonacca, Utilla, Helene, Barbarat,
and Moxat, commonly called the Bay Islands,
and all of which were then placed under the
authority of the Governor of Jamaica. The
islands were thus formally erected into a colo
ny, in violation, as the United States contends,
of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. The question
at issue is, whether this colonization was or
was not such a violation. The islands are not
small, not in the neighborhood of British Hon
duras, being 200 miles oft', nor have they ever
been considered as dependencies of that settle
ment, till Great Britain arrogantly assumed
them as such. On the contrary, they are of
respectable size, and Ruatan is quite a large
and valuable island; further, they have al
ways been considered dependencies of the in
dependent Central American state of Hondu
ras. They have never been connected in any
manner, moral, political, or geographical, with
British Honduras. If England intended to
have them exempted by the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty, why were they not specified by name
in that document ? Why is it that for nearly
two years, she failed to issue her proclamation
and royal warrant ? Or if she believed, as she
now says, that they were exempt by the
treaty, where the necessity of a proclamation
and royal warrant, at all, when by solemn
treaty, she had already the right to colonize
and govern. It may be plead that it was a
mere matter of form ; but we confess it looks
to us much more like a seizure, and an after
thought.
Well, for some years past the two govern
ments have been arguing the question of the
infraction of the treaty, without coming to any
conclusion. Mr. Crampton received instruc
tions (more than a year ago, we believe) to
propose to the United States a settlement by
arbitration. Through some oversight or mis
apprehension, that gentleman failed to make
said proposition, and England wearied we
suppose of the delay, has very recently repub
lished her warrant, by virtue of which the
Bay Islands were made her colony—a pretty
plain intimation of her intention to maintain
her position. She refuses to make any con
cessions, but is willing to arbitrate, leaving
it to the United States to select the umpire.—
This is said to be her ultimatum. If common
sense and good faith could be the arbitrators
we should have no fear of the result, for it
seems to us exceedingly plain, that these
islands were never intended to be exempt by
the treaty of 1850. And though they may be
claimed under a legal quibble—a pettifogging
definition of neighborhoods and dependencies,
the colonization was a clear violation of the
spirit of the treaty, and a defeat of its solemn
euds and intent. The possession of these
islands gives to their owner, perfect control of
the Isthmus connecting the Atlantic and Paci
fic, and it was to forbid such control to either
of the contracting powers, that the treaty was
made. Upon its merits the question is ours :
upon technicalities, England may get a lawyer’s
decision in her favor.
In connection with this subject, we subjoin
an extract from a letter to Lord Clarendon
from Mr. Crampton; speaking of the Bay
Islands, he says:
“ It will be within your Lordship’s recollec
tion that Mr. Clayton wus informed, by (Sir
Henry Bulwer, before the treaty of 1850 was
signed, that Ruatan was dejurc and de facto a
British possession; aud Mr. Clayton has, on
various occasions since, in conversation with
me, stated that he considered Ruatan as much
a British possession as Jamaica or any other
British West India Island !”
Had such an admission been made, the
question would be closed. But Mr. Clayton,
in his place in the Senate, has recently denied
the making of any such statement.
We are very much amused with one of the
reasons assigned, for seizing Ruatan. Having
ascertained, says Her Majesty, that the Bay
Islands are “spontaneously occupied” by
divers British subjects, who are rapidly in
creasing in numbers, we have thought it ex
pedient to provide them with a government.—
“ Spontaneously occupied!” What a beautiful
periphrasis for grabbed!
Gou. Walker has not spontaneously occu
pied certain quarters in Nicaragua, hut has
been invited to do so by the llivas government.
That government, anxious to have peace and
prosperity, is desirous of turning to account
Gen. Walker’s administrative abilities, and
asks him to take a hand, lie does so, and
Great Britain strikes a blow at him, by order
ing her frigate Eurytlloe to prevent recruits
from joining him. The British press denounce
him tut a filibuster; but England’s seizure of
the Bay Islands, after solemnly promising not
to colonize any part of Central America, is
only “spontaneous occupation.” Mild,pleas
ant-sounding words! They are so much more
genteel than tilibusterism, we trust the latter
will no morn be used.
As our readers may wish to know something
of lluatau and of the powers exercised by the
Governor of Jamaica, wo subjoin two extracts,
the first from the Journal of Commerce, and
thr last from the London Spectator:
Ruatan is situated on the coast of the
State id’ Honduras, about forty miles from
Truxtllo; is healthy, fertile, and possesses
large and commodious harbors, and great fa
cilities for the erection ofstrongfortitications.”
“ The Governor of Jamaica, is constituted
Governor of the Bay Islands Colony, and au
thorized to act as sovereign, without any fur
ther instructions from Eugland, in making
laws for the colony and framing the financial
estimates : to alienate the royal lands to pri
vate persons : to present qualified persons for
ordination by the Bishop of.l arnica; to officiate in
the churches, chapels, or any other ecclesias
tical benifiees, to constitutcand appoint judges
and officers of justice ; to suspend offices com
missioned by the crown itself; to pardon of
fenders : to give warrants for the custody of
idiots, lunatics, and the.ir estates ; anil to del
egate his authority to the Lieutenant Govern
or.”
Stripped of Mr. Clayton’s admissions, and
of all title under the treaty of 1850, England
can only claim these Islands upon the ground
that they are not a part of Central America,
or that of “spontaneous occupation.” The
first is pure nonsense—the last, pure filibus
terism.
Fatal Accident.
We learn from the Atlanta Intelligencer that
a freight train on the Lagrange Rail Road was
thrown from the track last Friday evening by
running over a cow, and the engineer, Mr.
Smith, instantly killed. The Intelligencer
says Mr. Smith was in the 23d year of his age,
and had been in the service of the Georgia
Rail Road for six or eight years, and in that
service had earned for himself, through his
conscientious discharge of duty, the charac
ter of a model man. He was the son of Isaac
Smith, who for a number years conducted a
classical school in Macon, Ga., and the grand
son of the venerable Isaac Smith formerly of
Camden, who for fifty years honored the Meth
odist Church and Ministry. His mother was
of the Taylor family of Columbia, S. C.

Brunswick Railroad Mooting and Land
Sales.
Last Tuesday the steamer Welaka took from
Savannah a very large list of passengers,
bound for Brunswick, to attend the railroad
meeting and land sales advertised for the en
suing Thursday. A few miles below the city
their number were increased by the transfer
of others from the Alabama, just from New
York.
Wo need not describe the town—the site
of the city to he built—nor enter upon the
mooted question of its advantages as a com
mercial mart, We will, however, say that the lo
cation struck 11s as a beautiful one. Its climate,
we should think, might he superb, especially
in the summer. A more delightful place than
nature intended it should be through the long
months of J une, J uly, August and September,
is probably not t, be found in this broad land.
Why, indeed, it may not be made an attractive
place of resort, both in summer and winter,
it would be difficult to say.
Two or three vessls freighted out with iro
were in port. One was unlading, the rails
being lifted from the ship to tho cars, the
railroad track having been laid down to and
over a portion of the wharf.
In the afternoon of Wednesday an excursion
was made over fourteen miles of the road, to
the point reached by the contractors, Messrs.
Collins aud Alexander, in laying the iron.
Tho work, for the most part, seemed to liavo
been well done, and is being pressed onward
with rapidity. About half a mile is daily ad
ded to the iron track. The run out and back
was very pleasantly accomplished. The road
passes over a level country to the present ter
minus, where it enters upon a stretch, (we
are told,) of one hundred miles through a sec
tion presenting extraordinary facilities both
for grading aud superstructure.
Thursday morning cemmenced the sales.
The result of the day’s transactions was tho
disposal of 106 lots, ranging from 30 feet by
90 to 30 by 180, to different individuals, for
tho aggregate sum of $43,005, being at the
average price of $405 70 per lot. We are in
debted to the Bsunswick Herald for the figures.
That paper states that the purchasers “are
from all parts of this State and from other States,
as well as citizens.” Friday forenoon 128
lots were sold far $46,420, being at the rate
of $362 66 per lot. The sales were going on
when the Welaka left on her return to Savan
nah. The whole number of 300 lots were
doubtless disposed of on Friday.
The general opinion seemed to be, that the
lots went off at remarkably fine prices. In
size they average from 30 feet by GO to 30 by
108 feet. It was said that the Company own
ed in all about 6,000, of which the 300 sold
were not the most valuable.
Thursday night a meeting of the Stockhold
ers of the Brunswick and Florida Road was
held, Col. Y oung of Thomas county, in the
Chair. The President’s report (a very remark
able document of which wo may or may not
have something more to say hereafter) was
read. It announced that 26 miles of the road
had been graded—that on 14 miles the iron
had been laid, and for 18 additional miles the
iron hail been purchased. That tho cars
would be running over the Satilla river 32
miles from Brunswick in the month of August.
That the Engineer had been ordered to survey
a branch road, running East of the Okefeno
kee Swamp, down to Florida—another from
ThomasviUe to the Florida line iu the di
rection of Tallahassee—and another from
some point on the main line to Albany. The
general tenor of the report was decidedly ad
verse to making the relinquishment required
by the Main Trunk bill as a condition prece
dent to a subscription by the State, to that
road. Tho report was unanimously adopted.
It was officially announced that Messrs.
Collins and Alexander had agreed to furnish
the grading and superstructure from the Sa
tilla, 18 miles, to Big Creek, and that a con
tract had been entered into between the Com
pany and 22 substantial citizens of Thomas,
Lowndes, Berrien, Clinch and Ware counties,
to do the same work from Big Creek to the
Alapuha River, a distance of fifty miles. The
terms of the contract were 20 cents per cubic
yard for earth work and 30 cents for cross
ties--payment to be made one-half in the
“conditional notes,” of which so much has
been said, and the other half in tho stock of
the Company. This leaves nothing for the
Company but. to furnish the iron—which they
engaged to do—as fast as it should be requir
ed.
The following officers were selected for the
ensuing year:
