COLUMBUB: \V'<lncH<lny June C, I*so. LARGEST CITY CUtCIIiATION. New Meat Market. The attention of our citizens, and especially the up town portion, is directed to the adver tisement, in another column, of Mr. Owen, who has opened anew meat house. It is cer tainly a groat convenience to the up town peo ple. — * The Duel. I'ho differences between the parties from Montgomery, alluded to in yesterday morn ing’s issue, we understand were amicably ad justed yesterday morning, and the parties, or a portion of them, left on the i) o'clock train for Montgomery. ■ -• Wm. C. Murray, Esq. \n English merchant of some twenty-five years standing in Charleston, died in that city on Thursday last, in the 49th year of his age. ---* Upon the second trial before the Superior Court of Bibb county, last week, Thomas Sorrel was found guilty of the murder of the slave Sam, and sentenced to the Penitentiary for life. Nicaragua Wild Growing Cotton. The .New Orleans True Delta has been shown by a gentleman who lias traveled a good deal through that garden spot of Central America, a specimen of the wild cotton that grows there spontaneously. The Delta pronounces the color fine, and the texture nearly equal to our Sea Island. Fatal Accident. The Macon Telegraph states that Thomas, a lad about 10 years of age, son of Lott Malsby, of that place, met with a teriible and fatal ac cident on Sunday afternoon. While riding on horseback, his horse ran away with and threw him. and, with foot fust in the stirrup, he was drngged from Ross’s corner to the Female College, a distance of a quarter of a mile, when his foot dislodged. His head was frightfully bruised and fractured, and ono arm broken.— He died the next evening. - Tho Enlistment Difficulty. While many American newspapers are una ble to see any cause for quarrel witli England, growing out of lie violation of our Neutrality Laws by Mr. Crumpton and several British Consuls ; while they accept as plenary satis faction the la'e letter of J.ord Clarendon, it is a little surprising to notico in a portion of the British Press, and a respoctable portion, clear er views of American Rights, international relations, and international courtesies. It stents more rational to expect ourown defense from our own press, than to look for it across the sea. Vet this singular anomaly is pre sented us. The Loudon Morning Star, and the London Telegraph, furnish us with more sensible and truly American articles on the Enlistment question, than we have seen in any American Exchango ! Both these journals, having Lord Claren don’s letter of apology and expiation before them, denounce it as a model of unfair deal ing, legal quibbling, admission of wrong, side by side with flat denial of wrong, as totally un worthy of the British (lovernment, and irrita tive instead of emollient. And they arc right. The letter is simply an aggravation of the difficulty—an adding of insult to injury.— Crampton and the three Consuls are indicted by the United States for violation of the neu trality laws. Clarendon only condescends to reply that our witnesses are not worthy of credit: that their testimony is not to betaken against the testimony of four honorable British gentlemen. He admits that the work of re cruitment was stopped because it was ascer tained that it could not be reconciled with our laws; and then denies any intention to do wrong, lie pretends that the enlistments were stopped because of the apprehensions of future aggression; instead of candidly owning that from tho time of its inception to its close, tho whole affair was in contravention of our rights and dues. In short, Lord Clarendon’s letter is in strict accordance with the policy of the British Government for centuries past, viz.: to recognize no Government as its equal—to staud upon its dignity—to deny that a Briton can do wrong (until forced to admit it) —and to push to their utmost tension the forbear ances of other nations, hoping, under cover of soft words to hide the fact that among nations, Great Britain is a bully, and will always boa bully until it perceives that effectual resistance is preparing to check its presumption. We arc sincere iu our desire to avoid war with Great Britain. We wish not to stand upon forms, ceremonies, trifles, nudpettinesses of etiquette. But questions of right are not to be disposed of like questions of politeness. We can treat with scorn the proud pretensions of our arrogant “mother,” nud laugh at her airs. But the moment she enters upon our rights, be it but a hair’s breadth, we bold that she should be checked, mid made to atone.— So believing, we cordially endorse the action of the Administration in dismissing Mr. Cramp ton, and confidently anticipate an end thereby, to England’s tantrums. Kansas Land. The Washington Union learns that, at the General Land Office the Kansas lands are at present exciting general interest, and that the surverys of the public lands as well ns the lu dian trust lands m this Territory are pro' r,-ess ing as rapidly as possible. Quite a number of townships have been returned to the Gene ral Land Office; but the Indian trust lands cannot by treaty stipulations be thrown open to sale until alter the location of individual reservations made by the treaty, which will require some time to effect. As to the other public lands, the time wheu they will be ex posed to sale cannot yet be determined ; but the first lands which will be offered for sale are those most contiguous to the Missouri and Arkansas rivers, of which legal notice of not less than three nor more thuu six months will be given by public proclamation. In Fremont. Sandusky county. Ohio, a few days ago, the funeral services were about be ing performed on the body of Daniel Stearns, Esq , who was supposed to have been dead three days, when a slight warmth was percep tible in the body; restoratives were applied, and he is now recovering. Freedom of Speech. The resolutions of the Massachusetts Legis lature. and Massachusetts public meetings, (which have been laid before our readers) in regard to the Sumner and Brooks affair, take a most singular view of that great right, that first and dearest of Republican principles, Freedom or Sukkcii. They absolutely take the ground that Brooks’ chastisement of Sum ner was an attack upon this great principle ! Whereas, it was neither more nor less than a well-merited, righteously deserved rebuke and chastisement, of abuse of freedom of speech.— Mr. Sumner, according to these resolutions, or rather their silence on this point, did nothing wrong, nothing blameworthy—off ered no pro vocation. Mr. Brooks, according to these resolutions, acted a purely gratuitous part, and entirely on the aggressive. This kind of talk will not do. It is riot consonant with common sense, nor with reason, nor with justice. Mr. Sumner transgressed, and most outrageously, tho courtesy of debate, the dignity of the Sen ate, the brotherly kindness that should subsist and be cultivated between Senators, and above all, common decency and eternal trutli; and all this lie did deliberately. Now these transgressions are worthy of punishment '! They richly deserved it. And no right-minded man will feel aggrieved, but rather feel glad, because so heinous offence has met with its merited punishment. Freedom of speech does not cover distortions of truth, malignant slanders, and vile abuse. These are infringements of this great right.— They are prostitutions of it, and they should not be tolerated any where, still less in the United States Senate, which should exhibit to the world, as tiic noblest collective assemblage in the worid, a lofty model of courtesy, fair ness, and truthfulness. If our Northern fellow citizens wish to avoid such unpleasant colli sions in future, they should send to Congress, better behaved men—men capable of keeping civil tongues in their heads. And if they fail in this, they must not find fault with Southern men, because they apply correctives, and re fuse to tolerate slanders upon their native States, disgraceful attacks upon their rela tives and colleagues, and obloquy and defama tion, vomited with unsparing gullet, upon Southern institutions. If Mr. Sumner be not too far gone as a fa natic, which individual, as every body knows, is deaf to all considerations of decency, truth, and conservatism, then we venture the pre diction that be will hereafter he better behav ed as a man and a Senator. Per Contra : We are much grieved to see our friends of South Carolina, going to too great lengths in their demonstrations. Mr. Prooks has already won “glory enough for one day.” Sustained as he is, by the conscious ness of having done a right thing, we hope lie will there be content. He needs no testimo nials in the shape of walking-canes, gold watches, and services of silver, to assure him of the sympathy and support of his people, nor do we find ourselves able to reconcile the pre sentation of these now commonplace trinkets, with over preconceived ideas of South Caro lina chivalry and gallantry. Simple resolu tions are in better taste, sud they meet all the exigencies of the case. The Other Side. The Franklin Democrat, of Greenfield, Mas sachusetts, in its issue of the 26th ult., while agreeing generally with the Northern press in commenting onthe late action of Hon. Preston S. Brooks, thus characterizes the con duct and speech which elicited that action : Sumner’s Speech. —Charles Sumner’s re cent speeches iu the United States Senate have not in any respect euhaueed his reputation as a man, as a debater, or as a statesman. It is impossible, it seems to us, for any fair minded man who loves truth and regards honor and decency, to read these effusions, all reeking with falsehoods, bitterness and wrath, and in decency, without feeling that Massachusetts has been disgraced by an unworthy son in the Senate chamber, before the country and iu the face of the world. We venture the assertion that no parallel to these vituperative outbursts of Sumner can be found in tlie annals of Con gress, nor in the records of any legislative as sembly in the world. Overpowering passion, madness itself, seems to have bereft him of his senses, and left him oblivious of truth and honor, of the courtesies of intelligent and dig nified debate, and of the proprieties of civiliz ed life. Wo do not, we cannot, use terms too strong in relation to this matter. It is not the character of Charles Sumner alone that is involved, ’lhe tail’ lanie of Massachusetts suffers. Y\hatever tuny have been tho politi cal errors of Massachusetts, she has ever, heretofore, been represented in the Senate of the United States, and we might also say, in the House of Representatives, by men, states men—Webster, Winthrop, Everett, Choate, Davis and Rates—who knew their rights, and knowing dared to maintain, and maintained them with courtesy, dignity, and ability, in such a manner as to command the respect of | their opponents, the applause of their friends, and tlie admiration of all their countrymen. They never suffered themselves on any occa sion, under any circumstances, to forget the respect due to their own characters, to their position, to their State and to the country. Never before has a Senator from Massachusetts been met with a retort so severe, so scathing ns that with which Senator Douglas replied to Sumner, “ l shall, and certainly shall not im itate you in that respect.” Time was when Massachusetts was respected in tho national j councils; how different now : how striking, j how deplorable, the contrast.” John Adams. Tho elder Adams, says a correspondent of the Boston Transcript, was the son of a cob bler. It was perhaps owing to the very fact of his humble parentage that the elder Adams became what he was. I have never seen the story in print, but it legitimately descended to uie by oral tradition, having been told my great grandfather by •* the pious Deacon Ad ams, of the Church in Braintree,” himself. l’lie deacon, during temporary absence, bad set John to cutting out the “ uppers” for some shoes;—hut—like the Chinaman, who, in making u pair of breeehers from a pattern furnished bv some prudeut captain, had faith fully copied the patches which his wife had put in the seat of the old ones—John had em bellished every “upper” he had cut out with the three-cornered hole by which the patterns had hung on their accustomed nail. “ I saw,” said the deacon, “I couldn’t make a shoema ker out of him, so I put him to learning! ” TtiLIiGRAPHIC. DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION. PIERCE’S PROSPECTS HOPKLBSS. Buchanan and Douglass Contesting. Telegraphed for the Daily Sun. [Cincinnati, June 2—lo P. M. The Democratic National Convention met in this city this morning, and harmony and good feeling have so far characterized its delibera tions. JohnE. Ward, Esqr,, of Georgia (Savannah,) has been elected President of the Convention. Pierce stands no chance to obtain the nomi nation. Douglass’ prospects are considered very doubtful. Buchanan is rising, and will probably be nominated if the New York llards are admitted. No important action has been taken by the Convention to-day. “FOUR DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL OP THE INDIAN. Columbia, June 3. The steamphip Indian Ims arrived at Que bec, witli advices from Liverpool to tlie 21st ult., being four days later than the Africa. She reports the demand for cotton limited, and prices unchanged. Other news unimportant. We copy the following dispatch from an ex tra issued from tho office of the Atlanta In telligencer, at 9 P. M. June 2d. Cincinnati, June 2.—The Democratic Na tional Convention assembled at 12 o’c’ock. S. Meadary, of Ohio, was appointed jporary Serretary. The Missouri [Benton] delegates forced their way into the Convention, amid great up roar, excitement and fighting. They were al lowed to take their seats, and quiet was re stored. The two New York delegations not agree ing. were both refused admission into the Convention. A Committee of credentials was appointed, consisting of one from each State. Mr. Richardson, of Illinois, in alluding to the Missouri [Benton] delegation, said the Convention must protect itself against insult and violence. Mr. Hall, of Missouri, attempted to justify, but the Chairman refused to recognise him, and finally the Benton Delegates withdrew amid loud cheers. A Committee on organization, consisting of one from each State, was appointed. E. J. Moss and Pierre Soule represent Lou isiana in committee on resolutions. After the transaction of other unimportant business the Convention adjourned to 10 o’clock, Tuesday morning. Later from Nicaragua and Costa Bica. New York, June I.—The Orizaba has ar rived at this port, with the California passeng ers, who left on the sth ult. The Transit route was open. Advices from Nicaragua to the 20th ult. state that quiet had been re stored. Walker landed at Virgin Bay a few hours after the last detachment had left. He was well and his army in good condition, except at Granada, where several Americans had died from fever. Walker’s brother had died at Masaga. Costa Ilica was full of in ternal commotions, and there was a prospect of Mora’s overthrow. The election in Nicara gua was progressing, and the success of Rivas certain. Two British men-of-war were at San Juan, but they made no opposition to passengers landing. Fire from Phosphorus. Quite an alarm was produced in Sparta, re cently, by the combustion of a jar of phospho rus in the drug store of Brown & Pendleton. The apothecary was absent at the time and the door locked. A smoke was seen pouring out at the windows, when tlie doors were forced open by Mr. T. C. Audas and the blaze which had now obtained considerable magnitude, soon extinguished. The danger however did not stop here. Particles of the combustible had been scattered all over the house and pavement, and could be seen occasionally ig niting and sending forth the peculiar fumes of phosphorus. The danger became still more apparent as night came on. The instertices of the lioor and shelving of the store and the pavement in front was luminous with phospho rescent particles. Occasionally it could be seen iu the streets, beforeotherstores and dwellings at distant points, carried thither on tlie shoos ot passengers. The result was a strict survei lance had to be kept up during the night to prevent its breaking out. We suppose the tin jar which contained the phosphorus sprung a leak, which exposed it to the atmosphere, and produced a slow combustion and finally an ignition. By the frequent application of alco hol the scattered particles were at length dis solved, having done but little damage, produc iug more smoke thau lire.— Sandersville Geor gian. .■ - 11l Health of the Empress Eugenie. A letter to the New \ ork Tribune, says : “ The Empress Eugenie is likely to remain an invalid for life. Her feet nre paralyzed, and though the physicians hold out the hope that a few days may restore her to her for mer health, her recovery is very problematic.” A letter from Paris to the Manchester Guar dian, says: “ You will have remarked that in the ac counts of the ceremony of churching the Em press, her majesty was obliged all the time to remain in a chair upou wheels, being unable to go through tlie fatigue in auy other way. Her health is far from satisfactory ; she is ex tremely weak, and the echoes of the Tuilleries repeal all manner of expressions of discontent ! with M. Dubois, whom, it is now nf r. -d, pre- I sided over the Empress’ confinetui i. a most unskilful way. These things are easily and bglnly said, always in such eases, whenever the result is not precisely wLat is desired.— I lie Empress is, by no means of a strong con stitution; and a first confinement, when the tresli vigor of early youth is past, is, nine times out ot ten. an extremely trying event. So it has proved iu this case, and the recovery is accordingly slow and full of accidents, for all ot which ‘he officious zeal of courtiersand chat tering idle women, makes poor M. Dubois responsible.” Not Correct. The paragraph stating that money and prop erty have been settled on the widow and chil dren ot the late Thomas Keating by Mr. Her bert. of California, now being extensively pub lished, is a mistake. No such settlement or gift has been made to them.— Augusta Chron. New England Emigrant Aid Company. Boston, May 27, 1856.—The New England Emigrant Aid Company held their annual meeting in this city this afternoon. There was a large attendance. The report of the directors speaks of re cent events in Kansas—the reported destruc tion of Lawrence and peril of their agent, Gen. Pomeroy. The total receipts for the year have been $67,184. They have saw-mills in various parts of the Territory. The company hold their land in Topeka and Lawrence by legal title, and cannot be dispossessed. The state ment was made that the handsomest stores in Lawrence were owned by Missourians. The emigration from New England to Kan sas, the present spring, has not been very large—say from 400 to 500 persons; but from Ohio and the other Western States it has been quite extensive. More free State emigrants have gone fr m the Southern and Western States this season, than all the emigrants from New Fngland. It was stated that Mrs. Robinson had start ed on her return to her husband, saying that she was determined to be near him during the present crisis. It was proposed to form aid societies to re lieve the wants of the people of Lawrence, and it was announced that Mr. Orne, of Hart ford, had subscribed SI,OOO for that purposo. It was recommended by Mr. Eli Thayer, that these aid societies be formed altogether independent of the company, all over New England, to furnish not only supplies to the suffering, but the means to send forward those who are willing to go to Kansas, but have not the means. A meeting was announced for to morrow to obtain subscriptions for this pur pose. After speeches from various gentlemen in favor of continuing the enterprise, the follow ing reaolution was offered by Professor Stone, and unatnimously adopted. Resolved, That we express our deep sympa thy with the settlers in Kansas, now suffering from the lawless outrage of the slave power, and our determination, settled and unaltera ble. to afford them all the aid we lawfully and rightfully may, and to prosecute to a success ful issue the righteous and glorious work which we have been permitted by Divine Prov idence to commence. It was announced that a memorial would be sent to Congress, asking remuneration for de struction of the property of the company in Lawrence, amounting to from fifteen to twen ty thousand dollars. John Carter Brown, of Providence, was then elected President, and the other officers of last year re-elected. A number of new names were added to the list of Directors, among them being Professor Silliman, of New Haven ; Horace Bushnell, of Hartford: Moses 11. Grinnell, Wm. Cullen Bryant, Henry H. Elliott, Wm. M. Evarts, Edwin D. Morgan, Wm. Curtis Noyes and Henry C. Bowen, of New York, Horace R. Claflin, Edward W. Fiske and Rollin Sandford, of Brookyin: and J. Baily, of Philadelphia. We copy the following statement from the commercial of the Mobile Register of the 30th ult: The receipts at all the ports, as compared with those of last season, give the following result— Increase—At New Orleans 519,178 Mobile 270,519 Savannah 21,833 Charleston 27,327 Florida 14J80 North Carolina 613 Texas 41,506 895,756 Decrease—At Virginia 4,117 Total increase 891,639 The exportsforeign, compared with lastyear, exhibit an Increase—To Great Britain 386,386 France 61,988 Other Foreign Ports 228,313 Total Increase—Foreign Ports 676,687 To domestic ports the exports are 100,626 bales more than last year, and the stock on hand at all the ports shows an increase com pared with last year of 101,481 bales. The Hotel destroyed at Lawrence by Sheriff Jones’s posse, is thus described by the St. Louis Republican. “ The hotel, as every body knows, was nothing more nor less than a fort. It was con structed by the deciples of Beecher, Silliman &Cos., for the purpose of resisting any at tempt to enforce the execution of the law with in the range of its guns and musketry. The town itself was fortified on the outskirts, and a determination to set all the laws governing the territory at defiance was openly proclaim ed. But the leaders ran away, leaving no man of any note to defend the place, and the re sult is as stated in the despatches. There this civil broil, we hope, will have an end. The attempt to force a settlement of Kansas with a particular class of men sent from New Eng land, has proved a complete failure. All the bharp s rifles which may be gathered together by Beecher, Silliman & Cos., will do no good, unless they are placed in the hands of those who will use them only as a means of self protection, and in defense against a common enemy. The disturbances in Kansas are at an end, if the preachers of New England and the I ree States, the political demagogues and the fanatics, will be content to let the Territory be settled in a quiet way. No Robinsons, nor Beechers, uor Reeders, nor Hutchisons, are wanted there to secure the administration of justice, and it is probable that a good many more will soon find that their room is better than their company.” A correspondent of the same paper, writ ing troin St. Joseph, Mo., under date of May 20th, (the day before Sheriff Jones’s party entered Lawrance,) says: Robinson, Reeder, Rrown, Schuyler, and tonway, have stolen away in the night time and endeavored to abscond from their friends’ just as the moment came when their advice’ direction, leadership and assistance were most needed. All of them, except Reeder, have been intercepted and arrested as fugitives from justice, and brought back to the Territory. Robinson was caught at Lexington, some days ago, and brought up last night on the Martha Jewett; Schuyler and Conway—the first Lieut. Governor, and the other Supreme Judge— were caught at Parkville, and,brought up yes terday Morning on the Star; and Brown, edi tor ot the Herald of Freedom, was caught a lew days ago, just back of Kansas city, by a negro belonging to Mr. Milton McGehee. “Late in the evening the negro slave saw a mnu let down from a back window, and at once suspecting it to be Brown, approached and asked his name. Brown, supposing he would be safe with one of his peculiar people, readi ly told him, and asked his assistance in getting away. The negro said, “ No, sir, you cannot leave: I will take you to my master.” tomatoes. IjMIKSII TOMATOS in Can*, at STOVELL’S CONFECTIONERY.
