We attended the exhibition and concert giv en on Friday evening, of the pupils of Mr. Keiuerer'a Juvenile Singing School, and were much edified and pleased at the novelty of the exhibition ns well as the very apparent im provement of the pupils. Mr. K. seems per fectly at home in the midst of the juveniles, and they appear delighted with the exercises. Upon the whole, we think the small pittance required as tuition, well spent. The New Washing Machine. We desire to call the attention of the public, and more especially of mechanic's, to this new machine now in daily operation at tho l’erry House, where it has completely entrapped the affections of the washer-women. The public, we know, are somewhat weary of washing machines, and have been much disappointed in them. Still wo believe it possible for hu man ingenuity to invent a satisfactory mechan ical washer, and this machine realy seems to us to meet every want. It is simple, not lia ble to get out of order, docs it work thorough ly and at the same time without injury to the fabric ; nnd greatest desideratum of all, it is easily worked, and compels the operator to maintian an upright and healthy position. In stead of promoting back-ache and side-ache, we consider it a euro for them, and the exer cise taken by the operator os highly conducive to health. Believing the machine a first-rate one, and that money is to be made out of it, we should be pleased to see some of our mechanics take hold, and while clearing a handsome profit for themselves, also oonfer a great benefit on the public. We do not give an elaborate descrip tion of the machine, as we hope the reader will satisfy himself by personal inspection. Wo see it stated in an Alabama exchange, that a number of shares of the stock of the Central Bank of Alabama, located in Mont gomery, sold recently in Mobile, at slls per share. The Bank has been operation only about nine months. Two men—named Jacob Freeze and James Lawrence, charged wi s h the murder in the most cruel manner, of a negro boy, the proper ty of the former, decamped from Shelby coun ty. Ala. recently. They ate said to have left ■it the direction of Georgia. They are thus described— Freeze is stout built, 35 or 4b years old, weighs about 140 pounds. Law rente is goodlooking, weighsabout ISOpounds, and is about 1U or 20 years old. The Selma Sentinel understands that the oitizuns of the neighborhood have offered u re ward of s2<>o for the apprehension of tho two. or $l6O for Freeze. Wheat Crop in Texas. Tho Houston (Texas) Telegraph, learns from an intelligent gentleman from Tarrant County, that the prospect of the wheat crop in that county is good, and much better than was anticipated two months previous. It had re covered from the apparent damage by the se verity of the winter, and is promising a good yield. From Central America. Advices have been received at New Orleans by the Granada, from Virgin Ray to the Bth ult. The Costa Ricans had retired front Nica ragua to Costa Rica, and 300 wounded Costa Ricnns had been shipped from San Juan del Sur to Punta Arenas in Costa Rica. Walker’s loss at Rivas is stated at 100 killed and wound ed, nnd that of the Costa Ricans at 650. The accounts in the Panama Star and Herald are very confused and unsatisfactory. Neverthe less, it appears to be certain that the Costa Ricans have evacuated Nicaragua. There is nothing to throw any light on the actual state of affairs in Nicaragua, hut it appears that the Costa Ricans are not very well satisfied with the result of their invasion, and that the state of affairs in Costa Rica is not very prom ising. Business, it appears, is entirely sus pended, money and credit is wanting, and trouble is anticipated Cause of Crampton’s Dismissal. The Washington correspondent of the Charleston Standard, in a letter of the 27tli ult., says “the reply of Lord Clarendon to Mr. Marcy, was considered by tho President as an ample apology, so far as the government of Great Britain was concerned, and so it was received. But as Mr. Ornmpton was personal ly disagreeable and objectionable to us, he is merely returned to his government that they may supply his place by another. Many agroed with t e Administration that the apology was only good so far as international law was con cerned, aud that Mr. Crampton remained per sonally as obnoxious as ever.” Nioaraguan Meeting in Memphis. We learn from tho Memphis Eagle and En quirer that an adjourned meeting of the friends of Nicarngua was held in tho Court House Square on the evening of the 19th inst., which was largely attended. That paper says : Near oue thousand persons were present, and all seemed animated with the same l'eeliug —that of deep aud heartfelt sympathy for the struggling Republic of Nicaragua, and for Walker ud his men. After several stirring speeches had been de livered, the following resolutions were adopted by acclamation: Resolved, That tho present war between Costa Rica and Nicaragua is one to be settled by themselves as nations. Resolved, Tlrnt we know of no law that will prevent our citizeus. as individuals, from giv ing aid to men struggling for a free govern ment. Resolved, That when a European powersliall interfere in this contest —but not till then— we will insist that our Government at once evoke all its resources of men nnd money to uphold the ** Mouroe doctrine,” of repelling -ueb interference, with man to man and gun to * Ua! , A Consul for Nicaragua. Charles 8. Willet, late assistant editor of ie New York Mirror, has been appointed 1 ii-wl for Nicaragua, at that port., nder the ilker-Rivas government. The office is said . “be worth $2,000 per annum. Fraud upon tho Government. Suspicion of fraud, says the Savannah News, having been excited in the Pension office at Washington by the great number of new claims for bounty land mid pensions for revolutionary service, sent from Columbia county, in this State, as well as by the incon sistency of the affidavits of the claimants, the head of that department despatched Mr. Ste phen G. Dodge special ugent to Georgia to in vestigate the claims, which, owing to the re spactablc character of some of the witnesses, had been passed with considerable energy by our delegation in Congress. Mr. Dodge came to Savannah, and through U. S. Marshal Dan iel H. Stewart, communicated with Deputy U. S. Marshal Thomas L. Ross, of Macon, who met the agent in Augusta, and proceeded to investigate the claims. Evidence of the most unmitigated fraud was obtained, and Mr. Dodge, leaving Mr. Ross still prosecuting his inquiries, catne to this city, where he obtained warrants for the arrest of Dr. Henry A. Ram say and Richard W. Jones, of Columbia coun ty, on the charge of having fabricated testimo ny in support of false pension claims. Pro ceeding to Augusta, the warrants were placed in the hands of Deputy Marshal Ross, wlio, assisted by Marshal Christian of Augusta, made the arrests on Sunday last. Rumsay and Jones, with some twenty witnesses, were brought to this city, and the examination was commenced before United States Commission er Charles S. Henry on Wedntsday. Judge Henry required the prisoners to enter into bonds for their attendance during the examin ation, of $6,000, which bond was given by Ramsay, but in defuult of which Jones was lodged in jail. The examination of witnesses disclosed tlie grossest fraud and deception which had been practised upon persons whose affidavits had been obtained in support of false claims, and on Wednesday night Dr. Ram say, who seems to have been the plotter and principal executor of the scheme to defraud the government, absconded during the night, forfeiting liis bail, and has not since been heard of. We understand that false papers had been made out in some twenty cases, all in Colum bia county, and that in the procurement of the necessary affidavits, the grossest imposi tion was practised upon honest and unsuspect ing persons. Much credit is due to Mr. Dodge, the Gov eminent agent, for the energy and prudence with which he has conducted the investigation by which tho fraud was brought to light; and to Marahals Ross and Stewart for their prompt ness and industry in bringing the offenders and the witnesses before the Commissioner. Vigilant efforts are being made for the re arrest of Ramsay. Jones is still in Savannah jail. Difficulties in Paraguay. The Journal de Commercio, of Rio Janeiro, snys the New Orleans Picayune, gives an ac count of an extraordinary difficulty between the Government of Paraguay and the French colonists of Nova Bordeos, copied from the Mercantil of Alegre, of the 26th of March.— The colonists, it appears, had had land donat ed to them on their arrival, and at once set energetically about cultivating them. Long and heavy rains, however, followed by a pro longed drought destroyed their plantations, and they found themselves reduced to the pit tance which the Government of Paraguay had promised to allow them for a year. This little means of support, too, was soon so seriously diminished, aud they were treated with such unmerciful rigor, being deprived even of shelter, that, filled with despair, they commenced to flee to the interior of Chaco, preferring to live among the Indian hordes rather than be subjected to the despotism ot the Paraguayan authorities. Excited by this course, the Government, it appears, perpetra ted unheard of excessos. The justice of the peace of the colony was ordered to ascertain how and whither the colonists fled ; and the purpose of compelling those still remaining in the colony to disclose the retreat of their com panions, lie inflicted on them barbarous vio lence. This proceeding, of course, made the colony revolt still more determinedly, and the people declared that they wished to return to their own country. President Lopez hearing of this resolution, intimated to the colonists, by a de cree of the 29th of December last, that from that day forward all Government aid would be withdrawn from the colonists; that at tiie end of a week from that time the colony would be broken up ; and that by fifty days afterwards they would be required to repay to the State all the expenses incurred on their account since they lmd left France. Under these circum stances, the French Consul in Paraguay ad dressed a note to President Lopez, asking for explanations. To this notehis Excellency gave a very rough reply. The consequence was that 339 foreign ers found themselves night nnd day without shelter and without means of subsistence, as no proproitor would venture to give to them for fear of exciting the anger of tho govern ment. In this state of misery the report leaves the poor victims of one of the South American colonization schemes. While the government could exert its cow ardly severity in this infamous manner, it was powerless against bands of robbers and assas sins who infested various parts of the country, iu some cases killing even soldiers sent to aid in serving process. “♦ Brunswick and Macon Rail Road, It is not generally known that at the last session of the Legislature a charter was grant ed for a Rail Road from Macon to Brunswick, or to some point on the Brunswickaud Florida Road. Its charter jrivilegesare unexception able, being the charter of the Brunswick and Florida Railroad Company, except to location. The incipient steps for the survey ba.e al ready been taken. This is an enterprise of great practical importance to Brunswick, and we shall watch its progress with much interest. We can assure the friends of this city that the enterprise is in the hands of men who are not in the habit of looking back when they have once put their hands to the plow*, and we may therefore look for a display of energy that will soon give us a direct communication with cen tral and upper Georgia. Will the Republican give us a demonstration of how this enterprise is to “inure to the immediate and great ad vantage of Savannah ?” Horne Tooke was the son of a poulterer, which Au ajlnded to when calle 1 upon by the proud stripling*p/Jfton to deset ibe himself— "l am, (said Horne) tiiA sou of an eminent Turkey merchant.” TELEGRAPHIC ITEMS.

Congressional. Washington, May 29. — The Senate parsed jill the House Land Bills. A message was received in both Houses from the President, announcing the dismissal of Crampton, and enclosing Mr. Morey’s reply to Clarendon’s last note. Mr. Marcy states that the conciliatory spir it shown by Groat Britain, and the regrets ex pressed for the infringement of our laws, are satisfactory ns regards the the British Gov ernment, but as the President cannot concur in tlie opinion that Crampton nnd the Consuls are innocent, tbey have been dismissed. He expresses a desire that the diplomatic relations of the Governments shall not be interrupted. In the House, the Committee upon Territo ries reported a proposition to admit Kansas as a State with the Topeka Constitution. The subject was postponed till June 25th. Safety of Reeder.

Speeches were delivered by Col.

During the meeting, despatches giving the account of the destruction of Lawrence were read, which created intense excitement. Over Refinements of Language. The following admirable hitisfrom the New Orleans Picayune. It touches a point upon which all readers of modern literature must have spent some admiration : Among all the improvements of the age, none, perhaps, are more striking than those which have recently been made, and indeed are at present making, in the language of ordina ry life. Who, in these days, ever reads of boarding schools ? Nobody. They are trails formed into academies for boys aud seminaries for girls; the higher classes are “establish ments.” A coachmaker’s shop is a “reposi tory for carriages” : a milliner’s shop, a “ de pot;” a threadseller’s an “emporium.” One buys drugs at a “ medical hall;” wines of a “company and shoes at a “mart.” Black ing is dispensed from an “ institution and meat from a “purveyor.” One would imagine that the word shop had become not only con temptible but had been discovered not to be long to the English language. Nowadays, all the shops are “ workhouses,” or “ places of business;” aud you will hardly find a trades man having the honest hardihood to call him self a shopkeeper. There isnow, also no such word as that of tailor, that is to say, among speakers polite. “Clothier,” has been discov ered, to be more elegant, although the term tailor is every bit as respectable. Instead of reading that, after a ball the com pany did not go away tilUdayiight, weare told that thejoyous groups continued tripping oil the light fantastic toe until Sol gave him warn ing to depart. If one of the company happen ed to tumble in a ditch, we should be inform ed that “his foot slipped and he was immersed in the liquid element.” A good supper is de scribed as making the “tables groan with eve ry possible delicacy of the season.” A crowd of briefless, lazy lawyers, unbeneficed clergy men. and half-pay officers, arc enumerated a “host of fashion” at a watering place, where we are informed that ladies, instead of taking a dip before breakfast, “plunge themselves fearlessly into the bosom of Neptune.” A sheep killed by lightening is a thing unheard of—the animal may be destroyed by the elec tric fluid, but even then, we should not be told it was dead; we should be informed that “the vital spark had fled forever.” All little girls, be their faces ever so plain, pijted or pitiable, if they appear at a public office to complain of robjoery or ill-treatment, are invariably “intelligent and interesting.” If they have proceeded very far in crime, they are called “unfortunate females.” Child murder is elegantly termed “infanticide,” and when it is punished capitally, we hear, not that the unnatural mother was handled, but that “the unfortunate culprit underwent the last sentence of the law, and was launched into eternity.” No person reads in the newspapers that a house had been burned down ; lie per haps will find “that the house fell a sacrifice to the flames.” In an account of the launch not that the ship went off the slips without any accident, but that “ she glided securely and majestically into her native element;” thesaid “native element” being one in which the said ship never was before. To send for asurgeon. if one’s leg is broken, is out of the question ; a man indeed may be “despatched for medi cal aid.” There are now no public singers at tavern dinners, they are the “ professional gentlemen; and actors are all “ professors of the histronic art.” Widows are scarce, they are all “interesting relics;” and as for nur sery maids, they arc now-a-duys universally transformed into “young persons who super intend the junior branches of his family.” ■■ Men of America—Mon of the Age. The greatest man, “ take them all iu nil,” of the last hundred years was George Wasli | ingtou—an American. The greatest Doctor of Divin ty was Jona i than Edwards—an American. The greatest Philosopher was Benjamin j Franklin—an American. The greatest living Sculptor is Hiram Fow i ers—an American. The greatest living Historian is Win. 11. Pres l cot—an American. The greatest Ornithologist was J. J. Audu | bon—an Americau. The greatest Lexicrographer since the time , of Johnson was Noah Webster—an Americau. The greatest inventors of modern times, were Fulton, Fitch. Whitney and Morse, all Ameri i cans. A wine has been lately advertised under the name of Naked Sherry. If naked sherry is like naked truth, thee can be no objection to its nudity. We dar sny it is very good tip ple : and one thing seems clear, w hich is, that it a wine is really naked, it must, at least, have some body. Why is an island like the letter T ?—Because it is in the middle of wa-t-er. Better than Miraposa Quart::. The variegated umrblc from above Loudon, Tenri., that our citizens have been accustomed for a year or two back toseepass over the State and Georgia Railroads is beginning to make its appearance again ou its way to Washing ton City. Tkis-inarblh is pronounced to he, of its variety, unequalled iu the whole world for beauty and lustrous finish. Its native bed is on a creek above London, t which point it is brought down in flat boats, and from thence by railroads and the Potomac river carried to its destination. For months back the supplies of this material have been stopped by low-wa ter. but the recent floods in tlie up-country have made the transportation again practicable and easy. Wo have beam told that these huge blocks that we see on our cai’3 are delivered at the contract price of eleven dollars per cu bic foot in Washington. They arc considered too precious even for this rich government to use in tho block, and consequently they must be sawed into thin veneers for facing those parts of the capitol extension that require sumptuous and elaborate adorning. About 1200 tons, it is thought, of these veneers will be necessary lor tlie ornamental work iu the two new wings. Some idea of the beauty of this newly discovered mineral may be inferred from the fact, that only the mantelpieces that, by way of experiment on the market, was ever made of this marble, brought in Philadelphia $1260. It would be no vain boast if a fellow could say, “ he was in town with a pocket full of ‘such rocks’ ” as these.— Atlanta Intelligen cer. Vindication of the late Lord Raglan. The London Morning Chronicle thinks that the peace will clear up many misrepresenta tions about the war. It says : “It is now ascertained that at the battle of the Alma, not 6,000 troops were left at Sevas topol. The Russian Plenipotentiaries have this at the Conference, Lady Raglan has a letter in her possession, proving that Lord Raglan sent to St. Arnand, when the battle was gained, to say that lie was pushing on to cuter Sebastopol, and that the French commander in-chief refused to support him, and required him to move ou to Balakhvva. Had Lord Rag lan been commander of both armies, we should have been in Sevastopol at the very opening of the campaign. “We are further in a condition to state that, four times over, Lord Raglan ordered the bom bardment of Odessa, when he found the enemy drawing strength from it. The order was tel egraphed to Paris, and four times Napoleon prohibited it. We can oniy state that, at the battle of Tcheruaya, the English General sent to the French Commander to say that he would seize the bridge over the river, and intercept the resreut of 25.000 Russians, who the Rus sian Plenipotentiaries now say were complete ly disorganized. The French Commander again refused the offer, and allowed the Rus sians to escape.” A Word to the “ Hard Up.” For goodness sake, don’t look so melancholy! Better times are in store for you, see if there ain’t. Why, man, one would suppose you were condemned to the pillory, torture or something like the “ pit and the pendulum.’, Come, now, be cheerful; if you can’t pay your debts immediately, do the best you can and pay them as you are able. “ Care killed cat” —if you haven't fifty cents to luxuriate on julep and strawberries with, appropriate half the amount for something less delicate and more wholesome. Kiss your wife, if you have one ; if you haven’t, then kiss somebody else’s, or get married immediately—for acts of despera tion frequently result happily and beneficially in their effects. If you have got any children, roam with them ; if you haven’t, roam with your neighbors’. Look upon the bright side of everything—put on a cheerful countenance, keep your mind in the right trim, and, if you find that your native town won’t support you for the services you may render, why, pack off to Kansas—there’s plenty of room out there for you. At all events, be cheerful. Revenue Cutter Officers Ordered. Captain Richard Evans, First Lieut Osmond Peters, and Third Lieutenant William E. Hud gins, have received preparatory orders to the cutter Duane, to be stationed at Norfolk. First Lieut. It. K. Hudgins to the new cut ter Philip Allen, to be stationed at Baltimore.

The cutters Duane, Philip Allen, Henry C. Dodge, and Lewis Cass, are all being fitted out at Messrs. Page & Allen’s ship yard, at Gos port, and will be ready for sea in about ten days. Royal Extravagance. The sum of SBOO,OOO francs has been plac ed at the disposal of M. de Morny, the French Envoy to Russia, to enable him to represent bis country in a fitting manner on the occa sion of the Emperor Alexander’s coronation. Napoleon will furnish him with six of his own carriages. Several European journals have, it is said, already engaged reporters to pro ceed to St. Petersburg, and engage to pay them S2O a day for their services. Sixty thousand dollars will, it is said, be expended in decorating the Church at Notre Dame, l’avis, for the occasion of the bastisrn of the Imperial Prince. A Curious Plant. The Baton Rsuge paper mentions that a gentleman residing at Livingston Parish, Lou isiana, has a very singular plant in his garden, which appears to be a sort of connecting link between tho animal and vegetable worlds. The plant is about three feet high, and its stems reach tho ground. At the end it is armed with a small sharp substance, with which it pierces insects and lifts them into the calyx, where they arc grasped by the plant and appropri ated to its support. ♦ The familty bible belonging to Samuel Adams of revolutionary memory, is now in the pos session ot thatd stingqished antiquarian, Sam uel G.
