This now Court, authorized by the last Le gislature, was duly organized yesterday—its officers sworn in, and a Grand Jury empan elled. llis Honor Judge Colquitt, charged the Jury, and the Court adjourned until this morning. He have been favored with frequent aud copious rains the past few days, and the show ers continue to fall. A somewhat uncomfort able coolness in the air, hints of hail some where about, though we believe none has fal len in our immediate vicinity. Crops are im proving. The river has 5 feet of water in the channel. 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. Four of Dupont's Powder Mills at Wilming ton, exploded last week; three of the work men were killed. The City Hospital at St. Louis, has been de stroyed by fire, and several of the inmates per ished in the flames. William Moran has started a paper in the -city of Mexico, called the “ Mexican Extra ordinary,” and published in the English lan guage. 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 tion of a system more consonant with the spir it of the age. While admitting that there are 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 rious bills of the Louisiana State Bank. It is believed there are several transient persons in that locality engaged in the same business. John H. Saunders, charged with the murder of Mr. Gardner, has undergone an examina tion at Sparta. The Judge held the accused to bail in the sum of $2,000 to attend his trial at the August term of the Court. High Price of Negroes. Twenty Negroes were sold at auction, at the Court House of Shelby County, Alabama, on the 6th instant, and brought an average of S9OO. Men, common field hands, averaged SE3SO, and one woman, 28 years old, with an infant child, sold for $1,531. The Washington Star, learns from private advices, that a delegation from Salt Lake City, armed and equipped with a State Constitution for Ltah, will be in Washington very soon, to ask the admission of that State into the Un ion. 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.” Delegates to the Cincinnati Convention. An arrangement has been made by the Ten nessee Delegation to the Cincinnati Conven tion, for a light draft Steamboat to convey delegates from Nashville to Cincinnati. She is to leave Nashville on the 25th instant, and arrive at Cincinnati on the 31st. Fare through $lO- She is to remain there during the ses sion, and depart for Nashville immediately af ter adjournment of the Convnntion. Delegates desiring to secure passage, can telegraph Capt. H. H. Harrison, at Nashville, to whom all applications for passage must be made. The Canadians are desirous to have an Ambassador of their own at Washington, and the Toronto Board of Trade have memo rialized the Home government on the subject. Col. Wm. F. Wright, of Newnan, who has just returned from Kansas, says that the re ports against Mr. J. W. White, the Kansas lec turer, are untrue ; and that although he is an humble citizen of Kansas he has done more to advance the interests of that territory than any man in the South.— Aug. Conit. 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. ♦ TELEGRAPHIC ITEMS. Further by the Asia. Iu the House of Commons, the motion of Whitesides, censuring the Ministry for the fall of Kars, has been lost by a majority of 127. Russia has qualified her assent iu the mat terof privateering. Letters from Rome state that in ecclesiasti cal circles, a panic prevailed at the Sardinian plan of Italian reform. Monsiegneur Berati di had gone to Paris, relative to this matter. A letter from Berlin says, that the proposal of England to capitalize the Sound Duos, was not acceptable to Denmark. The latest London date, Saturday, states that Lord Clarendon’s answer to Marcy’s let ter of 28th of December had been laid before Parliament the previous evening. The Lon don Daily News comments on the demand for Crampton’s recall, an invitation to the English Cabinet to degrade itself for the amusement and gratification of the Government at Wash ington. The Funds on Friday showed a heaviness, and declined three-eighths, but rallied at the close of the day one-eighth to a quarter lower than on Wednesday from the highest prices. Letters from Paris state that circumstances are likely to arise which will prevent the Al lied forces from evacuating the Principalities at as early a time as previously contemplated. The Czar of Russia has ordered the imme diate disbandment of three hundred aud fifty thousand troops. There are rumors of dreadful outbreaks and massacres at Damascus and Aleppo, two very populous cities in Asiatic Turkey. Messrs. Crampton and Marcy. Washington, May 17.—The statement pub lished in the Star this morning, that Mr. Mar cy has suspended diplomatic relations with Mr. Crampton is untrue. Lord Clarendon’s dispatch declining to recall Mr. Crampton, is understood to have been received to-day. From California and Panama. New Fork, May 15.—-The George Law is off the Hook, with 800 passengers and $1.700 - 00(1 in gold. Avery serious accident had happened to the Panama R. R. train conveying the George Law’s outward passengers. The accident oc curred on the Obispo bridge, which crosses a stream about fifteen miles from Panama. The train was composed of nine cars, con taining about nine hundred passengers, chiefly from the steerage. Owing to the accident, the passage through could not be effected, aud the passengers were sent back to Aspinwall. There were over fifty wounded—two of whom died after their arrival. Next morning there was a further arrival of the injured. Latest advices state that the wreck had not been wholly cleared away, but thirty dead bodies had been taken out. Among the wound ed are a number of brakesmen. Only one name is given—that of Mr. Dalhouse, a clerk at Aspinwall, who was killed. Heavy rains had fallen during the past mouth throughout California, and mining ope rations had taken anew start. The grain crops gave evidence of an abund dant harvest. The Governor had signed a bill consolidat ing the city and county of of San Francisco. The Democrats had carried the municipal election at Sacramento. The Republicans attempted to hold a mass meeting at Sacramento, but were driven from the ground by violence. At the same place, on election day, a powder vessel was sunk iu the river, and 70,000 pounds of the explosive material went to the bottom. A large fire occurred at Flacerrillu on the Kith. Loss $60,000. Nicaragua Fever at New Orleans. The Government’s recognition of Vijil, (lie Nicaragua Minister, has heightened the Nica, ragua fever. The South is alive in the mattei-1 and the Daniel Webster will probably sail on the 22d instant, with plenty of recruits for Walker.

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: President. C. F. WELLS, Jr., of New York Directors. S. J. Beals, | 11. S. Wells, > New York. If. G. Wheeled, ) C. Viuijaed, ( G. E. Gray, J Albany, N. Y. L. .1.
