Hudson and Lyman. About noon yes
terday, the Sheriff of Muscogee county arrest
ed Lyman, and the case was undergoing in

the intervention of the law.

Attention Mechanics.
The President of tho Ceutral Bank of Ala
bama, at Montgomery, advertises proposals
lor building a Banking House in that city.
Specifications and plan to be seen at tho Bank.
Tho Mail, in noticing the matter, says “Me
chanics, especially, will find it to their advan

wants to put up the finest Bankiug House in
tho State and connect his name inseperatcly
with the first Iron Front in Alabama.”
“ Tho Specifications for this work, prepared
by Mr. Button, are full and accurate in every
particular, so that a builder has nothing left
to guess at.”

Truly, Dame Fortune has showers of gold
to scatter over the heads of those who patron

New Principle.
The Mobile ltegister says a now and pecu
liar model for a atom wheel boat on anew
principle, was brought to us yesterday by its
ingenious inventor, Mr. J. V. Killingsworth,
of Lauderdale county, Miss. To this proposed
boat there are, iu fact, two wheels, obliquing
on each side of the run, from tho centre ; yet
so formed that the buckets act in parallel lines
with the stern as usual, but possessing the
power of separate action when machinery is
attached, like tho side wheels of high pressure
engines, and thus obviating the present diffi
culty iu turning boats of this description.
Tho Register of a later date, states that Mr.
K. exhibited the capacity of his new plan for
stern whoel boats, in presence of a considera
ble number of boatmen and others. The mod
el which is only about 30 inches long, was
operated on by a mere spring, yet with this
very pristine motive power, its progress through
the water was both rapid and smooth. But
its principal merit, says the Register, was
shown to great advantage by the ingenious
inventor, and created great surprise and plea
sure. 1 his was its tacility in turning, which
it accomplished as nearly as possible within
its own length.
When this new plan becomes tried on a
large scale, it seems scarcely possible but that
it must prove a most valuable novelty.
Pretty Good Pickings.
The Selma Sentiuel States that there are
upon the civil docket of the Dallas (Ala.) Cir
cuit, now in session, 1004 cases, of which 654
were writs issued to the present term. The
criminal docket has 111 cases on it, and the
Grand Jury, which had just adjourned, added
72 new bills.
There are in attendance on the Court 48 law
yer*, of which 89 are residents of the county.
The Dismissal of Crampton. &c.
We have before us the long letter ot Mr.
Marcy, addressed to Mr. Dallas and dated May
27th, announcing the satisfaction of our Gov
ernment with the explanation and apology of
Lord Clarendon on the part of Great Britain,
and the determination of the Executive, for
good and sufficient reasons, to dismiss Mr.
Crampton and tho British Consuls nt New
York, Philadelphia and Cincinnati. The gen
eral view which the President takes of the
case, as presented by the letters of Lord Clar
endon and Mr. Crampton, is thus stated :
“ The unequivocal disclaimer by her Majes
ty’s government of “any intention either to
infringe the law or to disregard the policy, or
not to respect the sovereign rights of the Uni
ted States,” and their expression of regret “if,
contrary to their intentions and to their reite
rated directions, there lias been any infringe
ment of the laws of the United States,” are
satisfactory to the President. The ground of
complaint, so far as respects her Majesty’s
government, is thus removed.
But the President extremely regrets that he
cannot concur in Lord Clarendon’s favorable
opinion of the conduct of some of her Majes
ty’s officers who were, as this government be,
lieved, and after clue consideration of all which
has been offered in their defence, still believes,
implicated in proceedings whieli were so clear
ly an infringement of the laws and sovereign
rights of this country. In respect to such of
these officers and agents ns have no connexion
with this government, it has nothing to ask
from that of her Majesty ; hut the case is dif
ferent in relation to Mr. Crampton, her Majes
ty’s envoy extraordinary and minister pleni
potentiary to this government, undthc consuls
at New York, Philadelphia and Cincinnati.—
The President is gratified to perceive that her
Majesty’s government would not have hesita
ted to comply with tho request to withdraw
these officers from their official positions if it
had entertained the views here taken of their
conduct in regard to recruitingcontrary to the
laws and sovereign rights of the U. States.”
Mr. Marcy then recapitulates and vindicates
the evidence by which the guilt of Crampton
and the Consuls has been established, lie de
nounces the special pleading of Crampton,
and his attempt to excuse liimself upon a mere
quibble—by a nice distinction between
enlisting soldiers for a foreign service on our
territory, and inducing them to leave our
territory and formally enlist at some con
tiguous paint. In reference to the disputed
question whether the latter proceeding is a
violation of our statutes respecting neutrality,
Mr. Marcy enunciates the following sound
uxiom, which, wethink, might well have been
declared and acted upon sooner, to the cutting
off of much impertinent British advice and
suggestion as to the scope and meaning of our
own laws :
“ I trust it will not be questioned that it be
longs exclusively to this government and its
judicial tribunals to give a construction to its
municipal laws, and to determine what acts
done within its jurisdiction are infringements
of those laws. This is a matter which con
cerns its internal administration, and it cannot
allow the agents of any power to controvert
that construction, and justify their conduct by
a different interpretation of our laws, which
virtually renders them ineffective for the pur
poses intended.”
Accepting Lord Clarendon’s assurance that
neither Mr. Crampton nor any other British
official was authorized to violate the neutrality
laws of the United States, Mr. Marcy never
theless shows that those laws were violated for
months —that, although the courts of this
country, as early as May 1855, decided the
particular means used by the British agents to
be illegal, they were still persisted in until
Mr. Crampton gave the orders for their discon
tinuance, on the sth of August. That the
British Minister and the Consuls implicated
were the directors and instigators of this con
tinued disregard and contempt of our laws,
Mr. Marcy does not regard as admitting of a
doubt. He shows that Mr. Crampton conceal
ed the whole plot and its workings from him,
notwithstanding Lord Clarendon’s declaration
that “he was commanded to practice no con
cealment with the American Government on
the subject;” and in view of his unauthorized
proceedings—in which ho was aided and sec
onded by the Consuls at Philadelphia, Cincin
nati and New York—our Government considers
that further intercourse between the two na
tions through him would be “alike unpleasant
and detrimental to their good understanding.”
Mr. Marcy therefore announces iu conclusion,
that the President “has determined to send to
Mr. Crampton, ller Majesty’s diplomatic rep
resentative, his passport, and to revoke the ex
equaturs to Mr. Mathew, Mr. Barclay and Mr.
ltowcroft, the British Consuls at Philadelphia,
New York ami Cincinnati.”
Nicaragua Emigration Society.
We see by tlie last Tnladega, (Ala.,) Watch
man, that a Nicaragua Emigrating Society
has been formed in that county, which
already numbers fifty members. At their
head is Capt. Jacob 1). Shelley, an old In
dian tighter, who was with Gen. Jackson in
the Creek War, and who now resides on tlu>
field where the battle was fought iu which old
Hickory won his first laurels. Capt. S. also
led a company to Mexico in the Alabama Re
giment. There appears to be an abundance of
enthusiasm among the Talladegans on the
subject, and the Captain is likely to go out
with a crowd of emigrants who will make
their mark should occasion occur.
Success to the enterprise.
Old Line Whigs.
“ Ion,” the intelligent Washington corres
pondent of the Baltimore Sun says:
“The old line whigs aro seriously engaged
in a renewal of their national organization,
and will hold a convention, some time in July,
for the assertion of their principles, and for
uniting their force upon the least objectiona
ble candidate for the Presidency who may be
presented by other political conventions. If
they take this course, they will exert a power
ful influence upon the election, and also upon
the administration, which, by their aid, may
be brought into power.”
Steamer Leona.
A now light draft Steamboat, bearing the
above name, has recently made her appearance
ou the Alabama river. She is to be commanded
by Captain Luke Wainright, and is to take the
place of the Henry J. King, as a Summer
packet.
Something about NigKerdom.
The Black Republican New York State Con
vention was held at Syracuse on Wednesday.
Delegates and Alternates at large, and Cen-
CHbioiml District Delegates, were chosen to
represent the State in the Philadelphia Con
vention. Two-thirds Were said to be decided
ly for the nomination of Col. Fremont, pro
vided Mr. Seward’s name is not before the
Convention. A long list of resolutions were
read by Horace Greeley, and adopted, denounc
ing the Border Ruffians, Mr. Herbert’s slaugh
ter of the Irish waiter, and Col. Brooks’ at
tack on Senator Sumner. A Mr. Riddle pro
posed another resolution denouncing Mr. Rust
for his assault upon Horace Greeley, and re
solving that the time had arrived when free
men mu-t defend editors and representatives
—“jieaceahly if they can, forcibly if they
must.” Several speeches were made, and the
Convention then adjourned sine die.
On the same day the New Jersey State Con
vention of the ebony party assembled at Tren
ton. Delegates were appointed in as thepre
vious case, and resolutions of a milder nature
than those offered at Syracuse were passed, —
The wounds of the Irish waiter, the Yankee
editor, and the Yankee Senator, were opened
anew in speeches by Senators Wilson and John
P. Hale and Gen. N'ye. The latter worthy
said he would strike hands with the devil to
defeat this Administration, but after that, he
would say, “Mr. Devil, I will have a squad
drill with you; you must mend your morals.”
He was particularly severe on President Pierce
for not having visited the sick room of Mr.
Sumner, and said the Foreign Ministers had
been there to pour oil into his wounds. Sena
tor Wilson declared that the South had com
bined to bring the freemen of the North into
the same condition as their own slaves. The
favorite nominee of these men was not named,
but we conclude from Gen. Nye’s words, that
“Mr. Devil” stands the best chance with this
black company, provided he will consent to
run for them ; but we suspect that Mr. Devil
is surer of having them than they are of en
gaging him ; in this, however, we may be mis
taken, as the report says the Convention broke
up “with hopes brightening in the future.”—

From tlie Charleston Mercury.
Kansas.
We have been allowed to condense the fol
lowing information from a private letter, by a
gentleman of this city, now in Kansas, to a
friend here:
Calhoun Camp, j
Lecompton, K. TANARUS., May 13, 1856. j
“We are encamped within eight miles of
Lawrence, three from Lecompton, and forty
eight from Atchison : will remain till Satur
day—are waiting for men and cannon; there
are one hundred men here, fifteen horses,
ten tents, eight oxen, four wagons. [By the
way tiie South Carolina Rifles are part of this
force, the organization of which this paper
noticed a clay or two ago.] When it was or
ganised, Mr. Brewster, who led the first
party, was absent on a surveying party,
and it was not known when he would be
back. When he returned lie fell into line as a
private, and was immediately appointed sec
ond sergeant. When introduced to Governor
Shannon he was appointed Quarter Master of
Third Regiment of Infantry, Kansas Militia,
and his friends hope soon to see him Lieuten
ant Colonel of his regiment. Tho letter from
which we are quoting then goes on to say :
“ A detachment of thirteen horsemen has
just left camp for Lawrence as spies. Robin
son wo leave at Lexington a prisoner. Reed
er has made efforts to escape. We are told
the freesoilers at Lawrenee are going to make
a hard fight. If they will give us a few hours
more we will be ready. I suppose you Lave
seen the proclamation of the United States
Marshal. He is bringing about things well.
I look fora rough time on Monday next. One
of our men was shot this morning in the head,
accidentally, by young Fredericks; but the
ball has been extracted and be is doing well.
Most of the rifles areCarolians—the remaind
er Georgians and Alabamians. By Sunday
we will have 1000 men, aud from 7to 12
pieces of artillery. We will require this, for
they are at work at Lawrence.
“We were three days in crossing the Grass
Hopper and Kansas rivers—no boat, simj'. a
raft. Sunday afternoon, in a violent storm,
one of the wagons and several of the men
went overboard. After some difficulty we suc
ceeded in getting them out. lam writting on
the ground, so you cannot expect much in the
way of penmanship. On Friday next we ex
pect to move to camp within a mile of Law
rence. The country looks charming— the
green fields, beautiful flowers, cool streams and
gentle breezes, and where we are now encamp
ed, the scenery is perfectly picturesque. We
are living well. The Fredericks and Felders
have their negroes witli them, all excellent
cooks—their rice aud beef steaks arc indeed
fine.”
So the soldier’s letter ends. Although he
lias an eye for the beautiful, he is a true sol
dier, and does not forget his tribute to the rice
and beef steaks.
We have been permitted to present tho fol
lowing letter of an earlier date than the above,
and from a different place, which is now in
teresting chiefly as indicating the spirit of our
I'almcto representatives in Kansas. The let
ter refers to emigrants from Orangeburg Dis
trict and that region of the State:
Atchison, K. TANARUS., May 8, 180(1.
1 merely have time to inform you that we
are all well War has commenced in the Ter
ritory in real earnest. We all leave this morn
ing for the scene of action. A. Y. F. and Sam
F. have been removed on a picket guard one
hundred miles distant from myself and Alf. F.
We are placed in front to make the attack on
Lawrence city. It is likely we may be under
a heavy lire for some time. A considerable
number have been killed ou botli sides already.
I have no doubt there will be much blood
spilt on botli sides in this struggle. Wo will
never give it up. Our motto is, “ Kansas
shall be a pro-slavery State, or we die.”
I have no time to write more. The cry is,
j to arms, and 1 am oft’ to the battle-field. Good
by tor a while, perhaps for ever. My respects
to all. Yours, Frank F.

The South American Difficulty.
Washington, May 30.-—The President in
bis message yesterday to the Senute on Central
American affairs, enclosed a letter from Mr.
Marcy to Mr. Dallas, dated the 24th instant,
which reviews Great Britain’s pretensions, and
says that the President rather than submit to
its obligations without any reciprocal benefits,
would deem it his duty to propose to Congress
the annulment of the Treaty. He was willing,
however, to refer all questions embracing the
rightful limits of Belize, the Bay Islands and
Mosquito territory to the decission of eminent
men of science in Europe and America, and
instructs Mr. Dallas to ascertain whether the
differences can be promptly terminated by di
rect negotiations, nnd if not, to discuss condi-
arbitration; the points of difference,
which by this method seems required and ap
plicable, being assumed; the other points of
difference would afterwards yield to discus
sion. The conferences between Mr. Dallas
and Lord Clarendon have, it is stated, been
conducted in a spirit of cordiality and frank
ness.

Correspondence of the Charleston Standard.
Washington, Muy 30th, 1860.
The Senate's report in the Sumner case was
received by the House yesterday, and referred
to the Special Committee, which is expected
to report on Monday. There will be two re
ports from this Committee—the majority and
minority—the former recommending Colonel
Brooks’ expulsion from Congress, and the lat
ter stating that the affair involves no privilege
of the House, and comes not within its juris
diction. It will be observed that the Senate
report does not pronounce the assault a breach
ot its principles, nor does that body make any
complaint to the House of Representatives.
The report only states the facts, and refers
the matter without comment to the House,
saying the Senate has no jurisdiction of the
case. This, it seems to us, disposes of the
whole matter—for ail the House can do legiti
mately is to act upon the report from the Sen
ate. If the Senate do not consider its privi
leges violated, is it for the House to instruct
that body in its constitutional rights? And if
the Senate makes no complaint, can the House
become its “ next lriend,” aud file a complaint
for it ? Yet the negro worshippers will take
the guardianship of the Senate, and aim to
punish Brooks by expulsion, and the effort
will fall.
I lie report that Col. Brooks had challenged
Senator Wilson is true, as is also the fact that
Mr. Wilson declined the honor of a meeting,
alleging that such a meeting would be a “vio
lation of the laws of the land and of his own
natural convictions.” And yet, Mr. Webb in
his letter to the New York Courier and Enqui
rer, says Mr. Wilson is a “fighting man.”
The Northern press is busy circulating the
report that Mr. Sumner was seriously ill from
his flogging. Not one word of truth in it.
A gentleman who saw him this morning, says
he appeared entirely easy—though his head
was still ve ry sore.
M. M. Miller, of Pleasant Run, Dallas
county, Texas, gives an account of a terrible
tarnado that took place there on the 13th ult.
The tarnado blew from the south, aud com
menced about an hour before sunset. Mr.
Miller was himself absent from home. He
says that every middling of bacon he had was
carried away, and not a vestige left. His
partner was killed, also his clerk, and a wo
man and two children, making five lives lost
on his premises. There were four other per
sons killed in tho immediate neighborhood,
making nine in all, and six or eight wounded.
Bome ot his goods were carried a distance of
titty miles , and one of the children was found
dead half a mile distant from the house.—
This tornado extended abont sixteen miles.
North and South, being from 200 to 300
yards in width. Over this tract the tornado
swept, carrying away or prostrating every
thing in its course; killing horses, cattle, hogs
nnd other animals. —Atlanta Intelligtnecr.
The Selma (Ala.) Sentinel, says a man
