COLUMBUS:
Friday Morning, May 30, I^sß.
LARUKST CITY CIKCULATION.
Keep Cool I
Our friend of the “.Arctic,” n few doors
above, lias “laid upon our table” a crystalised
specimen, “ pure as the icicle that hangs on
Diana temple!’’ and he informs us that he
has “any quantity” of the same sort, for sale,
wholesale and retail. Ham uses his best en
deavors to accommodate the people, and is in
every way worthy of their patronage.
The Keystone State, a regular steam Packet
between Savannah and Philadelphia, came in
collision with the bark (,'avulier, off Norfolk,
on the 2fith iust. The steamer’s bows were
stove in, and the water flowed in rapidly ; she
was finally run on the flats toprovcnt Jierfrom
sinking.
Freshet in the Wateree River.
We learn from the Camden (S. C.) Journal,
that large quantities of rain had fallen in the
upper part of the State, and that the Wateree
river had risen to a greater height than had
been known for several years, over-flowing its
banks for a considerable distance. The land
is severely damaged, and crops which were up
and growing, have been swept off, and have
to be planted over.
Col. Brooks’ Constituents.
The citizens t f Newberry District held a
meeting on .Saturday evening last, for the pur
pose of taking into consideration the peculiar
circumstances in which their immediate rep
resentative is now placed. Gen. James A.
Williams was called to the chair, and J. S.
lleid appointed Secretary. Gen. A. <J. Uar
lington, offered with an appropriate preamble,
a resolution declaring that the meeting approv
ed the conduct of Col. Brooks in the premises,
and that it should recommend the holding of
meetings on the first Monday in June, in the
various districts forming the 6th Congressional
District, to express the approbation sure to
be accorded to him by his constituents. Col.
S. Fair and Major Henry Sumner made brief
speeches, and the meeting having voted Col.
Brooks a handsome gold-headed cane, adjourn
ed to the next sale-day.
In Columbia, a large subscription has been
raised, headed by the Governor of the State,
with a view of purchasing a splendid silver
pitcher, goblet and stick, to be presented to
Col. Brooks. And in the same city, the slaves
have already contributed large sums to be de
voted to a similar purpose.
We also see it stated in the Standard, that
a considerable sum of money in small and
limited subscriptions, has been made up in
Charleston, for the same purpose. Several
neat and substantial articles liavo also been
contributed from the forest near Charleston,
for the same destination.
Verily this looks like backing up the repre
sentative.
Clairvoyance, Fortune-Telling, Etc.
Though we desire always to keep a civil
tongue in our head, there are times and sea
sons when plain talk is needful, and not to be
restrained by any considerations of false deli
cacy. We therefore copy the following article
from the Montgomery Mi.il, pointed, as we
think, at a Madame Swett, Clairvoyanete, at
present coining into money the credulity
of the Montgoinorians. Some three years ago,
there came to Savannah, a Madame Adolphe,
having in her train, two plump young gils,
and a Miss Nancyisli man, professedly the
husband of one of the girls. We wrote a short
article warning our readers, that Madame
Adolphe, and any other Madame professing to
know more than other people about the future,
was a humbug. The young gent thereupon
was in high dudgeon, and threatened us with
a libel suit. We immediately made further
investigations, and learned that Madame Adol
phe, had left Augusta a few days before in
great haste, having been threatened with
Lynch Law, on account of her infamous pro
positions to respectable ladies, who, we are
sorry to say it, had sought information of her
as to the future, not meaning, however, to do
any wrong, aud never dreaming of the infamous
proposals to which they would be subjected.
Theso facts we also published, but to our great
regret and surprise, they had littlo or no ef
fect, and Madame Adolphe continued to do a
thriving business. We see, very lately, that
Madame A., is now in Washington, and one of
the Washington papers lately published a
warning against her. Now whether Madame
Swett, is like Madame Adolphe, we know not.
Hut hero is what a correspondent of the Mail
writes:
It has been most forcibly and truly said that
” the credulity of fools is as inexhaustible ns
the invention of knaves.” We hsvo frequent
illustrations of the truth of this declaration,
in the ready gullibility with which mankind
credits the most preposterous pretensions •to
supernatural prevision. Most of these pre
tenders are women,—French Madames, —they
abound in all our cities aud sometimes iu duil
seasons make a professional tour into the
country.
They profess themselves astute in the affairs
of the heart, matrimony, nnd love difficulties.
Almost every woman has an affair of this kind,
present, or in prospect, and yearns for a solu
tion of it. Madame has a victim at once. A
few dollars are put into Madam's hand, nnd
Madame in return predicts happiness for the
troubled lady. If young, she is to marry a
handsome fellow, rich, and devoted to her. If
a widow is the applicant, a second husband is
seen to stand in the shoes of the “ dear de
parted.” If a dissatisfied wife is tho appli
cant, she is to have two or more husbands yet.
Matrimony, happy arrangements, are invaria
bly predicted. No woman was ever turned
off without tlie-e consolations.
It may be said these delusions are innocent,
ind if tlfe 1 idles are willing to p,y for these
uplifting* of the veil of the future, they have
a right to spend their money, and nobody lias
a right to remark upon their gullibility and
that is all we propose to do.
Hut there is nnother mystery which these
Madames sometimes teach, which is not on
tbeir bills. We cannot be more definite oil
this point than to sny that the subject is a ve
ry interesting one to married ladies who are
more prolific than desirable, and to young la
dies under imaginable circumstances. For
further particulars see Madame.
One Who Knows.
Slavery and the Methodist General
Conference.
The Methodist General Conference, for some
time in session in Indianapolis, had the vexed
question of slavery before it last Thursday.—
It first came up in connection with the Keport
of the Tract Society on the question of pub
lishing anti-slavery works. On this subject
the committee had much difficulty. The ac
count before us says :
When Rev. Abel Stevens was secretary of
the Tract Society, ho placed upon the list for
publication three tracts, about which a con
tention arose which is not yet settled. These
tracts were Mr. Wesley’s “Thoughts on Slave
ry,” and two anti-slavery tracts compiled from
Dr. Elliott’s works. Before these were pub
lished Rev. Dr. Jesse T. Deck succeeded Mr.
Stevens as secretary, and then, it is said, the
Board undertook the task of revising the list
of publications, and these three tracks were
struck off.
A number of the members of the committee
are now earnest in demanding that these tracts
shall be published.
A number of strong resolutions have been
offered in the committee. At its last meeting
the following was offered by Mr. Smith, of
New Hampshire Conference, as a compromise:
Resolved, That the committee on the truct
cause, having had under consideration the
publication of anti-slavery literature, recom
mends the tract society to publish such tracts
on the subject as the sin of slavery may de
mand, including Mr. Wesley’s Thoughts on
Slavery.
Dr. Jesse T. l’eck opposed this. He said
men were very fond of crying out Fiat justitia
ruat caelum, but they knew all the while that
there was no danger of the heavens falling.—
He thought doing right must include results.
He knew the effect of publishing anti-slavery
tracts would be fatal to the society, it would
strike down—lie would not say nine-tenths—
but two-thirds of the support of the cause.—
There were men —who did not live in the
South either—who regarded such literature
as they did the incendiary or midnight assas
sin.
The resolution is not yet disposed of in the
committee, but was under discussion when it
adjourned last evening.
On the same day the majority of the Com
mittee on slavery made their report, Dr. Dur
bin announcing that the minority was not
quite ready. The majority report after a
preamble, recommended the adoption of the
following resolutions :
Resolved. By the delegates in General Con
ference assembled, that we recommend to the
Annual Conferences the alteration of the Dis
cipline in regard to the “ General Rules on
Slavery,” so as to read :
“ The buying and selling or holding a hu
man being in bondage.”
Resolved, That wo recommend as a substi
tute for the 7th chapter of the Book of Disci
pline, the following:
What shall be done for the extirpation of the
evil of slavery ?
Answer 1. We declare that we are as much
as ever convinced of the great evil of slavery.
We believe that all men, by nature, have an
equal right to freedom, and that no man has a
moral right to hold a fellow being as property.
Therefore, no slaveholder shall be eligible to
membership in our church hereafter, where
emancipation can be effected without injury to
the slave ; but inasmuch as persons may be
brought into the legal relation of slaveholders
involuntarily or voluntarily, by purchasing
slaves in order to free them, therefore, the
merely legal relation shall not be considered,
of itself, sufficient to exclude a person, who
may thus sustain it, from tlio fellowship of the
church.
Answer 2. Whenever a member of our
chinch by any means, becomes the owner of
a slave, it shall be the duty of the preacher in
charge to call together a committee of at least
three members, who shall investigate the case,
and determine the time in which said slave
shall be freed; and on his refusal or neglect to
abide by the decision of said committee, he
shall be dealt with as in case of immorality.
Answer 3. It shall be the duty of all our
members and probationers, who may sustain
the legal relation of slaveholder, to teach their
servants to read the word of God. to allow them
to attend the public worship of God, on our
regular days of Divine service; to protect them
in the observance of the duties of the conjugal
and parental relations; to give them such
compensation for their services as may, under
the circumstances, be just and equal; to make
such provisions as may be legally practicable,
to prevent them and their posterity from pass
ing into perpetual slavery ; and to treat them,
in all respects, us required by the law of love.
Answer 4. It. shall be the duty of our preach
ers prudently to enforce the above rules.
Immediately after the reading of the report
the Conference adjourned.

Nicaragua Meeting in New York.
Tho following letter was addressed to the
meeting in New York in response to an invi
tation to be present:
Washington, May 21.
Sir—Your telegraphic dispatch, inviting me
to attend the meeting in the Park on Friday
evening, has just reached me. I cannot be
there in person, but my feelings and sympa
thies are with you in this demonstration of
public satisfaction at the wise and just meas
ure of the administration, by which the exist
ing government of Nicaragua is recognised and
will be encouraged to go on with its good
work. I trust it will meet the cordial appro
bation of the American people. It cannot fail
to do so, if they are true to the faith of their
fathers. Since the commencement of our na
tional existence it has been our principle to
consider every foreign government a legitimate
one which is received as such in its own coun
try. This is the condition of the present rul
ers of Nicaragua, nnd it is no less our duty
than it ought to be our desire to lend them
tho moral support they can derive from our
recognition. lam free to confess that the
heroic effort of our countrymen in Nicaragua
excites my admiration while it engages my
solicitude. lam not to bo deterred from the
expression of those feelings by sneers, or re
proaches, or hard words, ilo who doesn’t
sympathise with such uu enterprise bus little
in common with me. The difficulties which
Gen. Walker has encountered and overcome
will place his name high on the roll of the dis
tinguished men of his age. He has conciliat
ed t,.e people he went to aid, the government
ot which he makes part, is performing its func
tions without opposition, and internal tran
quility marks the wisdom of its policy. That
magnificent region, for which God has done so
much aud man so little, needs some renovating
pmee-s, some transfusion by which new lile
may be imparted to it. Our countrymen will
plant there the seeds of our institutions, and
God grant that they may grow up into an
abundant harvest of industry, enterprise and
prosperity. Anew day, 1 hope, is opening
upon the States of Central America. If we
are true to our duty they will have a security
in their own power against the ambitious de
signs of England far better than Claytou-Bul.

Presbyterian General Assemblies—Slavery.
The General Assemblies of tlie two branch
es of the Presbyterian Church—Old and New
School —are stiil in session in the city of New
York. The Old Schools seem to be quietly
attending to their own business, and progress
ing with their examination into their denom
inational affairs with commeudable harmony
and dispatch. Not so, however, with the New
Schools, they having abandoned their appro
priate sphere, and descended to a four days
wrangle over the sinfulness of slavery. The
whole discussion arose, as we learn from the
Express, in consequence of the insertion, in
the majority report, by the Committee to whom
the question was referred, of a clause from
certain resolutions passed by the General As
sembly held at Detroit in 1850. After stating
that the question had been entirely settled by
those resolutians, the report goes on to quote
the following as the conclusion then reached :
“ That the holding our fellow man in slave
ry, except in those eases where it is unavoid
able by the laws of the State, the obligations
of guardianship, or the demands of humanity,
is an offence in the proper import of that
term as used in the Book of Decipline, Chap.
I, Section 3, and should be regarded and
treated as in other offences.”
Then, alter quoting from the Detroit resolu
tions, the report continues :
“ This opinion has been re-affirmed either
expressly or virtually by nearly every succeed
ing Assembly, including the last. Nor do the
Committee anticipate that any considerable
portion of the present Assembly will either
stand or doubt concerning it, or incline in the
least to a retrogade course. The doctrine set
forth at Detroit—set forth simply as a doctrine
and not as a law or judicial decision—is now,
they judge, the settled view of our Church.”
This portion the Southern men wished
stricken out if the report was entered on the
minutes, because they do not consider slavery
an offence per se. The Northern Delegates
(with one exception) wished to retain it, but
did not appeal to the Bible to sustain their po
sition, while the Southerners did. The Rev.
Dr. Ross, of West Tennessee, and Rev. Dr. Bar
ker, of Virginia quoted various passages from
the Old and New Testaments showing that
slavery was established by God Himself and
sustained by Christ and His Apostles.
The question was simply on a motion by
Rev. Dr. Adams to print the majority and mi
nority reports on the minutes, while an amend
ment was offered by Dr. Mills to print the for
mer only. This would probably have been
carried at once, were it not for the latitude al
lowed in the debate, and the feelings since ex
cited. The whole matter, however, was dis
posed of Friday, by the adoption of the ma
jority Report as the settled view of the As
sembly ; and, as a courtesy, after considera
ble discussion, Dr. Boyd’s Minority Report
was ordered to be likewise printed in the Min
utes. The General Assembly of the New
School Presbyterians may, therefore, be con
sidered an anti-slavery body—not, perhaps, of
the ultra-Garrisonian School, but with a strong
leaning that way. We fear there is trouble
ahead for them.
The debate was quite warm towards the
close, and threats were made of a split in the
church, the Southern and more moderate
members condemning strenuously all further
agitation of the matter, ou the ground that
Northern interference only rivetted tigher the
bonds of the African.— Sav. Republican.
Queen Victoria’s Children.
The Queen of Euglaud, if not a great sov
ereign, is undoubtedly a true woman. Con
sidering the force which is added to her ex
ample by her exalted position, it can hardly be
doubted that she confers a greater benefit on
her subjects by the model she exhibits of all
the womanly domestic virtues, than would re
sult from the great capacity for affairs of
State. The Toronto Globe has taken pains to
collect from the English papers an account of
the manner the Queen brings up her children,
from which vve take the following extract:
“It would seem that the whole royal house
hold is up in the morning betimes, that the
young people breakfast at eight and dine at
one, which hour some people think decidedly
vulgar. During the forenoon they keep to
their books. Then the boys are drilled in
military, while the girls, we suppose, practice
calesthenics. After this they have an hour of
music and dancing. By this time dinner is
ready, and when it toils are surmounted, the
children go to the riding school, from which
they proceed, the priuceses to drawing aud
music, and the princes to the carpenter’s shop,
where they hammer and saw, and turn, till
they are tried, after which they occasionally
spend some time in a laboratory fitted up for
their peculiar use. The school is now ended,
and while the girls go out to play and ride,
the boys go out to walk, play, ride or shoot
till tea time. Then comes the preparations for
tho lessons to-morrow, and then to bed. Such
according to the English papers, is the dai.
ly life of the Queen’s children, and when
we add that, morning and evening, they are
trained in the truths of religion, we believe
we have before us the fact that the first fami
ly in the empire is regulated in a fashion
which it were well for a good many other fam
ilies if they would but imitate.”

From Wiliuer’a European Tines, May 10.
We have mentioned the absence of Mr. Dal
las, the American Minister, lie dined the
same evening with the friends and subscribers
to the Literary Fund, where he made the
speech of the evening. The American gov
ernment has frequently been represented at
the Court of St. James by very able men ; but
we can call to mind no minister of the United
States who has won such general admiration
in this country in so short a time. The litera
ry power and elegance of this gentleman’s af
ter dinner addresses are perfect models in their
way. They are so pointed and so terse, and
marked by such an elevated tone, that they
charm in the reading even more than they im
press in the delivery.
His allusion to the fact of the great Benja
min I rankliu, hiscountrymau, having been
towards the close of the last century the Presi
dent of the same Literary Fund Association,
was only excelled in good tnsto by the refer
ence to the Englishman who established in the
United States n kindred institution. If popu
larity in this aristocratic country be any test
ol admiration at home, Mr. Dallas ought to
stand well at the Presidential ballot boxes on
some forthcoming occasion.
Arrests.
Three negroes. Nelson, Sarah, and Angeline,
belonging to Messrs. John R. and John A.
8011, were arrested last Monday, at the in
stance of Thomas W. Walker, Esq., upon the
suspicion that they arc concerned, in some
way, in the robberry of Mr. Walker. They
are now confined in jail, until the matter can
be thoroughly investigated. A negro man
named Lewis, who generally goesbv the name
of “ Lewis Baker.” and has been living, off’
and ou. about Calmwba, for several years past,
and has had several owners, was taken off’ n
boat on Wednesday morning and confined in
jail, on the suspeciou that he knows something
of the robbery. He left here a few weeks
ago. at a time when the enquiries in relation
to the robbery were getting to be pressing.
