COLUMBUS: Halnrday Morning, .Viatic I, 1 N.'iO. LAHOEST CITV CIRCULATION. The Bainbridge Argus, 3d, reports a heavy storm in that section on the 28th, which pros trated trees and fences, and considerably dam aged the crops. The Washington Star says there is no truth in the statement that Mr. Herbert had settled on the widow of the late Thomas Keating, any amount of money or property whatever. ■ ■ At the late municipal election in Washing- City, the Anti-Know Nothing candidate for Mayor, Win. 15. Magruder, was elected. The Americans, however, have the majority at the Council Board. The Washington t Star denies that Mr. .Sum ner has been in a critical situation from the blows of Mr. Brooks, and says that lie might have left his room, according to his physicians, the day after the assault, had he so chosen. Sumner, we suppose, wishes to present a spe cimen of long-sufferance. ♦- Connocticut United States Senator. James Dixon, Froo Soil Know Nothing, has been elected United States Senator by the Le gislature of Connecticut. This was the result of a fusion of the Know Nothings and Free Soilers. • ♦ The Constitutionalist says that some of the citizens of Augusta, upon hearing of the ar rival of Mr. ami Mrs. Brooks, the parents of the Hon. I*. S. Brooks, at the Augusta Hotel, on Tuesday night last, complimented them with a serenade. The affair was got up at Hhort notice, but choice gems of music were artistically executed, on a dozen instruments or more, and the serenade dosed with three hearty cheers “for the lion. I’rcston N. Brooks, of South Carolina.” .New Line of Travel. We learn from the Selma Sentinel that the Alabama and Mississippi Railroad Company have determined to run a daily train from Sel ma to Louisville, the present terminus of their Road, and that arrangements are making for daily stages thence to the Mobile ami Ohio Railroad, via IJniontown. Proposals will also be made for carrying the great Western Mail over this route. The Company have bright hopes of soon raising the additional funds necessary to carry the Road to Uniontown. “Let this be done” says the Sentinel, “and a daily line of stages established between (Jnion town and the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, and it at once becomes one of the greatest thor oughfares in the Southern States. Selina will then bo placed in 12 to 15 hours of Mobile, a very important item in the way of travel to this section of country.” The Florence Tragedy. From a letter in the Times and Sentinel of yesterday we glean the following particulars of the abovo outrage. Glennvillb, Ala., June 3. For some years, Matthew Averett, sr., lias been keeping a ferry at Florence, on the Chat tahoochee river, without a charter from the State of Georgia. In 1858, A. W. Hill, F,si|., obtained a Charter from Georgia, for a ferry at that place, and opened a road on his owned land, on this side of the river, lending into the old Florence road, and stopped the road lead ing from Averett’s ferry ou the Georgia side; whereupon Averett erected a toll gate across the Florence road on the Alabama side, and demanded and collected the same toll as he would have received at the ferry. The authority upon which Averett claims the right to do this is an order of the Commis sioners’ Court of Barbour county, Ala. granted to him in 1848, to erect a toll gate at the ter minus of the Florence the W'est side of the Chattahoochee river, lie oroctcd^agate several hundred yards back from the river, just at the point where Hill’s road intersects the old road. Tho citizens ou both sides of the river have become very much excited, and have repeatedly torn down the gate. On yes terday several of Averett’s relatives and his overseer, armed themselves with double-barrel guns and proceeded to the gate, to guard it, and prevent persons from passing without pay ing toll. The names of said persons l under stand to be Wm. Cliatt, John McClendon, Win. McClendon, James McClendon, Wilson R. Ave rett, E. D. Averett, and Miles, the over seer. Upon their arrival, they secreted them selves behind a fence in an adjoiniiigtield. Soon after they arrived there, Nathaniel Roach, with his little son 5 years old, Robert Warliek, Samuel Driggers, and a man named Sikes, ar rived at tho gate and were about to pass through when the men tired oil them front their place of concealment. At the first fire Mr. Roach s little boy was wounded in the neck and body—supposed to be mortally. Sykes was also shot down, mortally wounded. Roach, in endeavoring to save his child, by bolding bis own back to them, received a great many shot, and is severely hurt. Warliek was wounded mortally. Driggers was shot in the arm, but not datigorodsly. [triggers was the only man in the attacked partly armed, and his gun would not tiro until too late to do any good. You can better imagine, than we can de scribe, tho excitement which prevails aftci uoh a shocking outrage. The otlieer, with a posse is in search of the offenders, and anticipates some trouble in arresting them. All are well armed, and should they resist, more blood will be shod. The community will see that the law is executed. A FRIEND TO ORDER. P. B. —Glennvflle, dune 3 — ll o’lock, a. m. —A letter has just been received bv J. M. White, Esq., from Florence, (In., stating that five more men passed Avcrett’s gate last night about dnrk. and on arriving at Hill’s ferry got into the flat to cross the river. Soon after they had pushed out into the stream, they were fired on hv some persons concealed in the bushes on the bank, and were severely wouuded. We have not learned the names of the persons shot, or extent of their injuries.— The persons shot were some gentlemen from Georgia, who had volunteered to escort Mr. Roach, with his wounded child, home, and were attacked on their return. Five o’clock, p. m.—Further particulars have been received. There wereeight men on the tint whin fi ‘ed on; seven were wounded— one thought to be mortally. I must close as the mail closes. 1 cannot say what will be the result. “Theendisnot yet.” Some of our young men, who wentout with the officer, have not yet returned, and 1 hope will not. until Right, Justice, Peace and Order are restored. CINCINNATI CONVENTION. THinn DAY. June 4th.—The platform was reported to day. It embraces the general principles of the last Convention ; denounces religious in tolerance and proscription on account of birth place, and affirms the principles of the Kan sas and Nebraska Act as embodying the only solution of the slavery question, consistent with the non-interference of Congress with slavery in the iStates and Territories. The Platform Committee also reported the , following resolutions : The first declares the Convention to be in favor of free seas and free trade throughout the world. The second, that the Monroe doctrine is sa cred. The third says that the control of the high ways of the Atlantic and Pacific should be se cured. The fourth sympathizes with the people of Central America in their effort to regenerate that portion of the continent. The fifth expects the next Administration to make every proper effort to insure our ascen dancy in the Gulf of Mexico, and to maintain the permanent protection of the great outlets into it. The report of the committee, with the excep tion of the above resolutions, was unanimous ly adopted, New York not voting. The Vir ginia delegation asked and obtained leave to consider the five resolutions. The Convention then adjourned until four o’clock this afternoon. The New State Constitution of Deseret. The Deseres News, of April 2d, publishes the new State Constitution, which was recent ly adopted in the Territory. We are indebted to the New York livening Post for the sub joined synopsis: “ All that part of the territory of the United States now known as Utah Territory, and bounded as follows, viz: On the West by the State of California, on the North by the Terri tory of Oregon, on the East by the submit of the Rocky Mountains, and on the South by the thirty-seventh (37tli J parallel of North latitude, is hereby formed into a free and sovereign State, mid named Deseret.’ “ Article 2d guaranties to the people of the new State the enjoyment of the usual rights and privileges of freemen, as provided by the Constitution of the United States. “ The powers of government of the State of Deseret are divided into three distinct depart ments, viz : legislative, executive and judicial. “ The legislative authority is vested in a General Assembly, consisting of a Senate and House of Representatives, tho members of which are to be elected by the people. “ The sessions of the General Assembly will be annual, until otherwise provided by legis lative enactment. The members of the House of Representa tives arc to be chosen biennially, by the quali fied electorsof their respective districts, whose term of office will continue two years from the day of their election. “ Senators will be chosen in the same man ner as the representatives, whose term of of fice will continue four years from the day of their election. “No person can be a member of the general assembly except he be a free white male citi zen of the United States, and an inhabitant of the State one year preceding the time of his election, and has at his election an actual resi dence in the district he may be chosen to rep resent. “ The general assembly will have power to prescribe the number and make the apportion ment of senators and representatives ; but the number of senators cannot be less than oue tlnrd nor more than one-lialf of the represen tatives. “ Each member of the general assembly is privileged from civil arrest during any session, and in going to and returning from the same. “ ‘l’lio members of the gcneral t assembly will take an oath or affirmation to support the constitution of the United States and of Dese ret, which may bo administered by each oth er, or by any person qualified to administer oaths. “ Any person of the State who may hereaf ter be engaged, directly or indirectly, in a duel, either as principal or accessory before the fact, is disqualified from holding any office under the constitution and laws of the State. “ The secretary of State, treasurer, auditor of public accounts, and attorney general, are elected by the general assembly for the term of four years. “ Tho supreme judges (a chief justice ami two associates) are elected by the general as sembly for the term of six years after the first election under the constitution. “ The judg es of the district courts aro elec ted for two years by the electors of their res pective districts. “ Tho first general election of State officers and of a representative to Congress under the new constitution will be appointed by pro clamation of the acting governor of the Terri tory. “ Any amendments to the constitution are to bo submitted to, and decided by, a direct vote of the people. “ At the first election after this constitution takes effect, the voters of the State will elect the same number of senators and representa tives as arc now elected to the legislative as sembly of the Territory of Utah, and according to the present apportionment. “ The present organization, laws, and every thing pertaining to the territorial government of Utah, remain in full force and virtue inlaw until superseded by the action of the State government under the provisions of this con stitution.'’ Canadian View of Crampton’s Dismissal. liv the attention of our Washington corres pondent we were enabled yesterday afternoon to issue a slip containing the intelligence, re ceived by telegraph, of Mr. Crumpton and Consuls Barclay, Mathews and Roweoroft’s dismissal by the 1 nited States government. Our correspondent adds that Mr. Marcy's let ter in reply to Lord Clarendon’s last despatch, is “concilliatory, but firm.” The N. V. papers, in contemplation of the dismissal which has taken place, appear pretty generally, to be lieve the llritisli government will “pocket the affront ” and sent! successors to their dismiss ed officials. Woarc of a different opinion, and have no doubt Mr. Dallas will be served with a “notice to quit” within an hour of the re ceipt of Mr. Marcy’s despatch, however “eon eilliatory’ may be its terms. The pretence that Mr. Crumpton is not dismissed, because oi’ the enlistment imbroglio, but from bis be ing personally distasteful to the President, is, in our view, untenable, and ought not to be accepted. Mr. Cramptou was, notorious ly, personally acceptable to the President pre vious to the enlistment affair; and it is clear ly his alleged conduct in that affair to which his dismissal must be attributed. Besides, are Messrs. Barclay, Mathews and Roweroft all personally unacceptable to the President! Montreal Herald, 2 9th tdr. From the N buraguons'', Mu> 27. Costa Bican Affairs. The concurrence of reports from Costa Ilica, that the country is agitated by internal com motions. and that the Presidency of General Mora is in danger of overthrow, induces us to attach some importance to the statement. Before President Mora left Virgin, be believed himself that his power was unpopular at home; and he did not make himself faster by deserting so ingloriously the expedition he commenced with such vain and trenchant proc lamations. El Kicarayuense advised in the be ginning that bis course would bring down upon him untold evils; but he disregarded the ad monition. and the result lias proved the asser tion. Three causes have conspired to bring Gen. Mora in great disrepute at home. The van ity that prompted him to undertake iudivid dally the oppression of the present Republican government of Nicaragua, was sufficient to condemn him in the estimation of the world; but in Costa Rica, where the people might foolishly shut their eyes to the probability of such an undertaking, they could not avoid observing the disastrous chain of cir cumstances that commenced with and have continued to follow the expedition of invasion. But there is no reasons to suppose that the people of Costa Rica approve the war ; and if we aro to credit the advices from that State, it is altogether probable that hostilities were commenced wholly without the consent and against the wishes of the majority. We will not assert that the people of Costa Rica ap prove of the presence of American soldiers in Nicaragua; but they did not wish any conflict with them unless a general league of offensive operations could be formed among the four ad joining Central American States against this Republic. Failing to perfect this combination, they chose to live in peace and accept what destiny might be held in store for them under the course of progressive events tiiat now threaten to disenthral the world. But the real and tangible grounds of Gen. Mora’s recent unpopularity at borne is to be found, first, in his imprudent attach upon this State without effecting the above combination; second, in having sacrificed so many victims both by war and cholera, in an unprovoked outrage upon this Republic; and third, in hav ing introduced the cholera into Costa Rica, where it is creating sad devastation. It is also stated that the Republicans, or those disconnected with the existing authority in Costa Rica, have originated a revolt in the city of Alajuela, where the people have always opposed the servile administration of affairs. In consequence of these untoward circum stances, says our Spanish editor, Gen. Mora is uncertain of his continuation in power, or of iiis own personal security. Thus the false steps of politicians continual ly jeopardise the national welfare and ifhder niine the stability of peace and progress. With blind temerity Gen. Mora involved liim elf in a war vvitli Nicaragua ; and to-day the prospect of ruin to himself and evil to his country is the prominent contingency of the times. Os the three thousand men brought with him in this warlike invasion, scarcely twelve hundred survive to tell the story of their defeat and the destruction of their friends. War with all its horrors, has visited them, and yet the chain of disastrous conse quences has not ceased to afflict the survivors. The men are deserting and officers resigning— all absolutely disgusted with the improvidence that lias plunged the country into such a laba ryntli of misfortune. And still, we may add, the end is not yet. From the Nicaraguense, May 27th, Election in Nicaragua. On Sunday last, a large table, covered with a red cloth and surrounded by officers, attrac ted considerable attention from the Americans, as they walked up and down tho collonade of the row of buildings on the West side of the plaza. Papers were thrown loose upon the cloth while the clerks would seize their pens and write. The people of the country, the simple market women, the beggars on the corners, the leper of the infirmary, all knew what it meant, but we, the editor of the news paper, the great factotum of a country town, were completely in the dark as to the import of the red table, its officers and papers. It was the solemn election of the Republic. The people were exercising their greatest prerogative of electing the officers that shall rule them for another term of office. In this country the elective franchise extends to every male inhabitant of eighteen years, against whom there is no criminal prosecution, and who is not charged with being a dissolute and vicious man. The voters elect delegates, who assemble in the capitals of the different de partments and elect Representatives, Senators, and a President. A man must be twenty three years old to be a delegate, twenty-five to be a Representative and thirty to be Sena tor or President. The election on Saturday last—as most pub lic days in the Republic come on Sunday was concluded with the greatest decorum. The candidates for the Presidency were all of the same political faith, the only dispute be ing between the Democrats of Leon and those of Grenada. Don Patricio Rivas, the present popular President, was supported by the peo ple of Grenada, and Gen. Mariano Salizar, a great favorite, by the people of Leon. A few votes have been cast for Don Nprdeste Rami rez, of Leon. The struggle is between Rivas and Salizar, and it is impossible to determine at present who will be the next President of Nicaragua. The election in Grenada proceeded by can tons, or wards, each ward of four thousand persons electing one delegate. The people generally took great interest in the result, and the number of the votes ran larger than at any election held in Grenada. To the governments and people abroad this significant fact cannot be avoided that the Republic of Nicaragua ex presses the will of the people. All its actions emanate from this silent expression, and every movement it has made has been undertaken bv the concurrence of the great body of the people. To ignore, then, the fact of our ab solute independence, is to deny to the inhabi tants of Nicaragua the right of self-govern ment. Attempt at Insurrection. The Times and Sentinel of yesterday mor ning says: . “The Chuunenuggoe community were thrown into consternation recently by a report that a negro preacher named George, the property of •John Fontaine, of this city, who resided on the plantation of Rev. Charles Stewart, on the lu.lgc, was attempting to raise an insurrection among the negroes. A committee of citizens was appointed to examine into the rumors, who report that George indulged the wicked purpose of inciting his fellow servants to the destruction of the whites, but that be failed to seduce them from their allegiance to their masters. George has been arrested and is now in jail. Silver Heels is the name of a valuable horse lately purchased by Gen. Singleton, of Quincy, Illinois, for the round sum of $3,000. He is one of the highly bred Morgan stock, and -is pronounced by competent judges to he the finest specimen of the horse kind now liviug. A Fresh Account of the Destruction of Lawrence. —~ From the Doniphan Constitutionalist, K, T. We havejust arrived from that notorious abolition hold, Lawrence. On Wednesday evening, the 21st; about 500 men, under the direction of the United States Marshal, assem bled before the town, and demanded that the arms in Lawrence be given up, and he be al lowed to arrest those for whom he had writs. They submitted to the demand and uncondi tionally surrendered, giving up four pieces of cannon and some twenty Sharpe's rifles. Before the Marshal dismissed the men, Sher iff Jones, though but lately shot by one of the cowardly traitors in the darkness of the night, approached on horseback and summoned the whole company to assist him in making arrests and carrying out his orders. The whole affair was done with order and according to law. The Sheriff made about 20 arrests, and the grand jury of Douglas county having declared the Fort or Big Rock Hotel and the two printing presses nuisances, the Sheriff was legally bound to destroy them.— Thirty cannon shots were fired at the hotel, breaking it in many places, and then it was burned up. The two presses were totally de stroyed. There were two or three abolitionists killed. Two Southern men dangerously wounded by accident. After the Southern men left Law rence, the house belonging to the vile traitor Robinson was burnt, we have been told. This was contrary to orders, and meets with the condemnation of all the Southern men. The laws have been enforced even in Law rence. Hurrah for the law and order men of Kansas! The Doniphan Tigers have returned with joy in their hearts and honor upon their company. —_ —— Interesting from Florida. We find in the Charleston Courier, the fol lowing interesting letter, dated Pilatka, May 20th. Dear Courier—A short trip through East Florida, in attendance on our courts, has ena bled me to pick up some specimens of soil which I send you by this trip of the Carolina, and may of interest to you. We left l’alatka not expecting to see such crops as wo found in the interior. Os every thousand acres of land, which seem to be the pot work of nature, you will find not more than fifty in cultivation ; and yet emigration has been immense, and every where on our journey we saw crops which indicated a tremendous yield—enough to put corn down next fall to forty cents per bushel. The soils I send you were gathered for me by D. Jefferson Williams, Esq., of Marion co. lie is truly a model planter, and with 25 hands this year will raise corn and other produce sufficient to pay all his expenses and supply his plantation, and have his cotton crop clear gain. His cotton crop is, at the lowest calcu lation certain for ten thousand dollars. Now, what say our Carolina friends to this? Here is health, conveniences, good society, most pleasant weather; “oranges blushing over head,” land cheap—deer, turkies, bear and fish in abundance—natural curiosities un excelled by any portion of the globe, and only 24 fours from Charleston to Palatka. The dark soil i send you is black hammock —the pipe clay looking rock is soiled turned up by the plough in a soft state, and can be cut with a knife like cheese, but after being exposed to the atmosphere, becomes hard.—• The egg shaped rock I can say nothing of, as to its composition, or what it is. The pottery I gathered at the old home of Osceoa, (which is on Mr. Williams’plantation.) The marl or shell soil was thrown up from a depth of sixty feet, in digging a well. The Indian hoe, you can let your imagina tion picture to be wliat it pleases. It is a cu riosity, the nature of which is yet to be found out. I wonder very frequently why more of those gentlemen, who in Carolina work hard to live on poor lands, do not come where na ture is offering them riches, and that too, where the climate ts more pleasant, where heat and cold never reach such extremes, andhealth is almost a certainty. Apprehensions of War, A New York letter, dated May 31, says: “ All sorts of apprehensions are afloat here touching the probable effect of Marcy’s rejoin der to Lord Clarendon and the dismissal of Mr. Crampton. Some of flic Wall Street capital ists are declining all time contracts, under the apprehension (in most instances affected no doubt) of war. The Collector of the Port, Mr. lledtield, hav ing waited upon Mr. Barclay, to say to him, that though his exquatur was revoked, he would be happy to acknowledge and recognise his acts, until a successor should be appointed. Mr. Barclay, however, politely declined to avail himself of the courtesy. He has never theless, given notice to the shippingmerchants and others, that lie will grant such facilities as his commission still authorizes. Distressing Accident. Lust night about 10 o’clock a very distress ing accident occured at Station No. 2, Central Railroad. A man named Patrick McDermott, attached to the train, had his right leg, terri bly crushed by being run over by the cars.— McDermott had got off the cars to attend to the switch. In attempting to get on the train again he made a mis-step and the wheel of the cars passed over his leg. The injured man was brought to the city in the train which ar rived at a quarter to eleven o’clock last night lie was taken to his residence in the vicinity of the depot, and when we left the house, about one o'clock this morning, the operation of am putation was about being performed. McDermott has no family. Ilis situation is extremely critical. —Savannah News. ■ “ ♦ Death from the Bite of a Rattle Snake. Gentlemen arrived from Bulloch county last evening, inform us that Mr. Henry Davis Jr., a gentleman residing in that county, was bit by a large Battle Snake, while walking a few hundred yards from his house yesterday, and died from its effects. He was bitten in the forenoon and was not found for some time after, when he was so near death as to render all remedies unavailable. After he was bitten lie corded his leg with his suspenders, and then killed the reptile. He proceeded towards his house a short dis tance, and finding that lie could go no further, hung his hat upon a bush and lay down, w-here he was found, lie was much respected, and has left a wile and some live or six children, and numerous friends to mourn his loss.—Sa vannah Journal. 5 1 A gooil looking friend of ours, who is on this side of forty, though somewhat hoary headed, while absent from the city a few days used Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative, and on his return called to see his lady love, but was surprised and amused to find she did not re cognize him, and immediately determined to pass for a cousin of himself; but was eventu ally chagrined to find he was supplanting his former self in the affections of the lady, which caused him to make himself known ; but the lady still says that she likes the counterfeit better than the original, and insists that he continue (if necessary) to use the Hair Restor ative.—Nf.
