COLTMBtTS: Monday Morning, .Innc 10, I •*•10. LARUEST CITY OIWWiAT-1011. The Bridge Election, On Saturday la*-!, created quite *n excitement in our city, more Interest being *• in it. than iu any election which Ims occurred lor some years. “ Bridge” <>r -No Bridge 1” was shouted across the streeta througuout iho day; and responses given in every possible key, from the dubious, temporizing reply of the man who hadn't exactly made up Ins mind, U) the loud answer of “ Bridge by George! t’rom the iriend of progress. The sidewalks were thronged with pedestrians; here and there, in shady places, were knots and groups of in - dent disputants; while the ceaseless tumble of wheels, belonging to vehicles of all kinds, from antiquated buggies to the splendid four and six-horse omnibusos, U floating on the breeze the “ Bridge” banner, added its quota of bus tle to the stirring scene. The polls presented a truly animated soene. Men w ere there, both as voters and canvassers, who were never seen there before: and even the Superior Court of the county, wont through the “noturaliiniion process to furnish voters to the polls. We hod not anticipated so much interest in the question, and were much gratified to see it.—- We like to see men have opinions of some rort —for or against—wrong or right: and even wrong rather than a timid Miss-NancyKb neu trality. The election resulted as follows : Bridge l‘-'| No Bridge Majority Mil We need hardly bay, that having taken decided stand in favor of the Bridge, we are much gratified at this result; and we havo not a doubt that those who now differ from us, will ere long porceive that we were right. In our opinion, nobody has been hurt, end everybody will soon be benefit.tcd. The Lnto Attempted Robbevy- Two men, named Edward Wallace and Jo seph Donbon, have been arrested by tlc police, on suspicion of being concerned in the late at tempted robbery of Messrs. L. 15. Duck & Cos. The Grand Jury upon hearing tho evidence, found true bills against them, and they accord ingly will stand their trial. The link connect ing them with tho robbery, is truly a slight one in appearance, but will probably prove strong enough in the end. It seems that soon after the burglarious attempt, n pocket was picked up, containing gun-powder. It was preserved, and is now found to fit precisely a coat found in tho room where D, and W., have been staying, and which is minus a pocket! The men disown tho coat, but ono of our cloth ing merchants swears to its having been worn by ono of them to his store, and there pulled off for the purpose of trying on another. But the most interesting feature of tho case is yet to come. A few days since a large amount of valuable jewelry was found con cealed under a house in this city, and thero can be no doubt that these parties know all about that affair also. A jewelry store was robbed in Montgomery to the amount of $3,000, on the 2d iust. D. and W. arrived here on the 3d ; hive ever since been soiling jewelry and bartering it away at houses of ill-fame, and for clothes and various other articles, always at amusingly low prices; thoy also paid a visit to tho premises where the pile was concealed, on Friday last, and made some threats against a woman who lives there, should she speak cf their visit. It is thought that three others belong to this delectable party; and we trust they may n t be deprived of their share of justice. Since the arrest of D. and W., jewel ry has “riz,” and can no longer be bought lor a song. Old Buck’s Bachelorhood Attain. We had no thought the other day, when re commending Mr. Buchanan to marry, that wo would awaken the batteries of our bachelor bro therof tho Enquirer, lie opens vigorously upon us in Saturday’s paper, with a second round, headed, “ A Youthful Editor in a Bad Way.” Mistake—we ain’t in a bad way—arc feeling very well indeed. On account of our immatu rity wo arc advised to keep out of the shade (we had mentioned that we were far from the shady side of thirty) which may bo good ad vice ; but it comes from an interested party. Have our readers iwcr noticed how partial men with seaniy locks, are to tl\e shade? Our friend bestows upon us the epithets “youth ful,” “juvenile, ” and “young man. Well—we can’t help our youth, and are daily getting the better of it. But a truce to skirmishing. We proceed at once to spike, not the enemy’s, but our friend's, guns. He winds up with the fol lowing ; “ We are glad the young man is dropping romance and coming to his senses His o*en wishes were father to the thought—[we had suggested to t *.-i Buck, some pretty girl] when he attains t,. years of discretion, he may come to repent that he ever “fathered” suiffi thoughts, or tho more substantial conceptions that usually spring from them. “ Out of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaketb.” What a confession i- in the above few lines! Let no man attempt to do battle whose gallantry is at t-uch low ebb, lie repents never having thought of a pretty girl; and who confesses that even when arrived at years of discretion, he dare not faco the music-—kind Heaven forgive u! we mean no harm—the musio of the cradle ! Guns spiked ! We published in our last, from the Americus News, a brief notice of Columbus, concluding with the following sentence: “The Terry House’ under the superintendence of Mr. Bass, is a well-kept and neatly furnished hotel.” As this may mislead his numerous frieuds in this State and Alabama, wo take occasion to say that Mr. Perry, tho original proprietor of the House, is still to be found at the post which be ■o ably fills, and continues to divide with Mr. Bass the honors of “ Perry House” celebrity. The Editor of tho Contral Georgian, has been regaling himself on green corn, and “new loir” biscuit Selma—-Her Resources and Frospoct*. The Selma Sentinel has an nrtie'e on jlii- abject ltuin which wo get some facts;— From the first uuv ot June, 1865 to Ift day of June, 1860, the following were the receipts of C‘ ttnn at Selma: Pei .i:i. and Tumi. Kuilrdnd 13,722 f in-*. ,Mi>s. •• •• 9,640 “ *’ W ogoiis 14,1160 “ Total Itwvipts 67v006 Stock now on hand...., 400 When the Tennessee ltnad reaches Jackson ville. the Sentinel calculates that Soltnu will receive 19,000 from Talladega, S,t>oo from Cherokee, 9,000 from Randolph, 5,000 from Shelby, 1500 from St. Clair, 1500 from Blount, ‘i,ooO from Jefferson and Walker, 0,000 from Bibb. 4,000 from Autauga, making from this source lorty-.-evcw thousand bales. ( The Sentinel takos another out look into the future, and tells it sees, as follows: From tho other direction, when the Ala - am* and Mississippi Railroad is completed to l'a iontown, and the Marion toad completed to Marion, we may safely calculate on receiving from lJallas 12,000 hales, .from Perry 38,000, from Tuscaloosa 5,000 bales, from Greene 2,000, from Marengo 4,000, and scattering from other counties, 3,000 bales, making in all fifty eight thousand babes, which, with the 37,000 bales, will.make the cotton receipt.s nt Soltna ninety five thousand bales. These are lyot wild calculations, as every oue must admit who will examine the subject for ouo moment. Add fifty or sixty thousand bull"* to tho present cotton receipts of Bid mil, and no one can imagine what a salutary influ ence it would have in inducing the location of wealth and population to the city, not to say a word of tho other sources and branches of in dustry which would naturally be created by this large addition to the business of Helma in the great staple. • Errors Corrected. We were in error on Saturday in our nu nouncements of “Political ” and “American” meetings. The notices were given from our latest information, and were well meant.— Hereafter, though wo do float a neutral flag, we hope that both parties will apprize us of changes in their programmes, when made, no that our announcements may not be foiled of their intent—a desire to correctly inform the members of each party of what is doing in the respective camps. Such announcements are entirely compatible with our neutrality, and will always bo cheerfully made for mem bers of any, and overy party. The Son, like its great prototype, shines for ALL. The official organs now announce, that tho American meeting will come off on Saturday next: the Democratic meeting will lie held to day. Shame. The Montgomery Advertiser and Gazette, commenting on Mr. Crittenden’s resolution in structing the President to send Gen. Scott to Kansas, says; “ Send Scott! Fiddlesticks 1 Better send the gallant Harney, with his dragoons. Scott would boas much out of place in Kansas us ho was in the Creek Indian war—and, besides, would be more apt to take sides with the Abo lition traitors than with the Law and Order men.’ 1 We truly regret the appearance of such u sentiment as the above in any Southern Jour nal. Os what avail is it that, men spend a long life in the service of their country, and carry her banners in triumph over many a bat tle-field, if they arcs to meet with such rewards as the above: Gen. Scott a Traitor ! Did we believe it—could we for a moment entertain such a thought, we had rather let it die in the silence where it was born, than blazon it to the world. So gallent and brave has been the ca reer of Gen. Scott, if he were to prove false to-morrow, we would make the announce ment more in sorrow than in anger ; nor could we find it in our heart to cover him with that obloquy which he would deserve. The Scott of former days would still live in our memory. Auburn Methodist College. The last Auburn (Ala.) Gazette states that the -urn of $75,000, which was to be raised prior to the establishment of this Institution, has very nearly been subscribed, and a few days it has no doubt will seethe consummation of the subscription. The news from Kansas which we publish this morning, is very confused and contradic tory ; but wo may at least learn from it, that very groat disorder prevails in the Terri tory, with but slim prospects of settlement. ♦ It i- difficult to keep the run of all tho Kan sas and Sumucr meetings hold at tho North ; and wo must bo content with the remark, that a very active business is being done in both these departments. ——• Steamboat Explosion—Many Killed. Mustrkal, Juno 10.—Tho steamboat run ning in connection with the Grand Trunk Railroad exploded to day. The mail conduc tor was killed, and it is feared a number were lost overboard. The boat is a complete wreck. Her boiler was blown an immense distance, und the wharf and everything in the neighborhood shattered. A train bad just arrived, and the boat was full of passengers front it at the time. The scene whs fearful. A child was blown from the arms of its mother into the air and landed on the terry shed The number of killed is estimated at tweuty. and tho wound ed at thirty to forty. . The captain of the boat was severely in jured and is not expected to live. Major Johnson and lady were thrown into the river but escaped. It is reported that fifty passengers still remain unaccounted for. Poland. The Paris correspondent of tire New York Courier and F.nquircr writes, May 22d : Four o’clock. — l resume my pen to an nounce to you a most gratifying piece of intel ligence : The restoration of the Kingdom of Poland, is resolved upon by the Czar, at the recommen dation of his Majesty Napoleon 111, Kmpcror of the French. The joy which this intelligence (which 1 rather think yon will have exclusively) is cal culated to produce, is much lessened by the im pression suggested by all recout accounts from Madrid that a revolution is imminent in Spain. The total number of acts passed by the Mas sachusetts Legislature duriug its late session was 30S, and of resolves 108, which is con ■idered small business, when it i known the session lasted 157 days. .

Mr. Fillmore’s Acceptance. Nbvv York, June 12.—A let for has bom re ceived from Mr. Fillmore, several calamus long, iii which he accepts the nomination te dehred to him. He says'that he considers that the American party has claims upon every earnest friend of tho Union. Anti-Fillmore Convention. New Yore, June 12.—The Know Nothings oppose-; to Mr. Fillmore met in Convention to-day. It promises to be largely atteiiuedcd. Go!. Fr--mont’s chances tor y. nomination for the Presidency seems to be best: but a por tion of delegates oppose n nomination until tin- Republican Couveution, which meets on the l .'tli inst., at Philadelphia, make their nominations. A letter has been received from Mr. Speaker’ Banks, signifying his willingness to accept, if nominated by both Conventions. I’. kl.—The Convention met and was called to order by Ex-Governor Colby, of Now Hamp shire. Ex-Governor Johnson, of Cennsylvn niu was chosen as temporary chairman. Connecticut Senator—Sumner Meeting’. Hartkobi), June 7.—The Senate of this State imve revoked their action in electing Hon. Jqanes Dixon, United States Senator, in consequence of the House not appointing Ex- Governur Dutton Supreme Judge, as hnd been anticipated by the Senate. The matter is to be further debated on Tuesday next, to which date the Senate stands adjourned. A meeting was held here Inst ovennig, to ex press iudignatien at the recent assault in the Senate Chamber. Among the speakers was Mr. Dixon, the new ( ly elected Senator, who denounced that portion of tho Southern press and the public which cudorsed the conduct of Mr. Brooks in committing the assault. Kansas Meeting. Worcester, June 9.—An enthusiastic meet ing in aid of the Free State men in Kansas, was held here Saturday evening. One of tho wealthy citizens of the county has offered to subscribe ten thousand dollars towards any well matured plan for the driving out of the invaders and securing pence to the bona fide settlers of the territory. Later from Central America and California. New Orleans, June 12.—The Daniel Web ster, has arrived with later intelligence from tho Isthmus and California. The difficulty in regard to the Panama rail road has been adjusted; and the road is again in operation and travellers passing over it without molestation. The cholera, black vomit and dysentery, have made their appearance among Walker’s troops. Former accounts by the Orizaba are con firmed. Cortland Cushing died at Port Arenas few days before the Daniel Webster left. Mr. King, the editor of the San Francisco Bulletin, an American paper, had been assas sinated in San Francisco; in consequence .f which there was great excitement. Fom Boston. Boston, June 7 —The steamboat excursion to the approaching Philadelphia Convention has been abandoned. lion. Chauncey *T. Knapp, member of Con gress from this State,.previous to leaving Lo well last evening, was presented with n hand same revolver, bearing tho motto •* Free Speech.” Markets. New York, June 11. —Cotton is unchanged, with sales to clay of 1500 bales. Sterling Ex change firm. The Africa takes out to-morrow one million in specie. June 12.—Cotton unchanged; operators awaiting the steamer’s news. New Orleans, June 12. —Cotton unchang ed and market firm. A Scone at Cincinnati. Tho correspondent of the Buffalo Advertis er gives the following •account of the Missou rians : Before Sam Medary had taken tho chair, and was being proceeded with, a sudden com motion was visible at tho lower end of tho Hall. By degrees, the noise grew more dis tinct, and thi?rc were heard shouts of—“Wo are tho democratic delegation, and we will come in ! ” This was followed by a rush to wards the door and a struggle at its entrance. “It’s the Hards!” cried one.“ It's the Softs! shouted another. These impressions were strengthened by the appearance of the notorious Uyndors and a few of his bullies, who dashing aside the crowd rushed into tho Hall. Soon, however, the mistake was discov ered, for immediately behind the “ Empire” gnug came a party of powerful determined Missourians fairly fighting their way into the Hall, • and knocking down all who opposed them, A scene of excitement that beggars descrip tion ensued, as the Convention became aware that it was the Benton delegation, and that they were resolved to force their way on to the floor. Every man jumped into his chair, and several rushed to the door. Foremost among the intruders came Ex-Governor Price, and behind three or four large sized, fine look ing men, and over went two or three of the doorkeepers, who opposed their entrance. At this moment a man struck Gov. Price, and lie fell; but instantly sprang to his feet, and drew his revolver, Tho tight continued until the Missourians had nearly reached the platform, the excite ment in the meantime being painfully intense. Several members from the Southern States placed tLoir hands upon their weapons, and for a while bloodshed seemed really likely to follow. But soon the Missiourians saw the vacant seats reserved for the New Yorkers, and rushing into thorn, seated themselves, and quiet was partially restored. While it lasted the scene wa* one of the wildest excitement. We learn from the Savannah Republican, that the Howard Association of Norfolk have presented beautiful Gold Medals to Drs. Read, Nunn, .Skinner, Godfrey, McFarland and i Charlton, physicians of that city, as testimoni | als for their services to tho sick of Norfolk duriug the terrible epidemic of last year. On °ne side arc represented the three figures of •• Faith. Hope and Charity;” on tho other, tho •• Good Samaritan,” ministering to the man who fell antoug thieves. On one side the inscription, was sick and you visited me on tho 6tho : “ Presented by the Howard ts soeiation of Norfolk, Yn.” A youug woman lias been working in the factory ot the American whip company at Westfield, during the la-0 six months, attired in male clothes. She pretended to boa nice young man of 17, smoked large Havanas, was a successful boau among the young ladies, and acted her part as a modern gentleman very well to all appearances.

The Investigating Committee arc still in this city. The independence. Mo., correspondent of the St. Louin Republican, writing under date June sth, says: Marshal Donaldson and four men who had been dischnged from official du ty, were kilted near Hickory Feint on the 3d iust. The Marshal was in the act of arresting some of tins men who bad attacked Captain Fate’s Company. After the surrender of Fate’s Company tho IT'oesoilor;- commenced destroying houses, and driving men, women and children from their homes, near Bull Creek. One hundred aud fifty men, under Capt. llpiui, left New Santa I'c in pursuit of tho marauders, but Col. Sum ner arrived at Black Jack in time to prevent a conflict. It is reported that Franklin was not taken, though attacked by a large body of Abolitionists. Gov. Shannon issued a proclamation on iho lui. commanding all persons belonging to mili tary companies .unauthorized by law to dis perse. otherwise they would be dispersed by force of tho United States troops. Chicago, June 10. —Tho Democratic Press has a letter from Lecoinpton. June 4tb, giving details of the skirmish with Capt. Fate’s Com pany. Tho account states that thirty South erners, while proceeding from Westport to Bull Creek, under command ot Pate, encoun tered about the sapae number of free State men. Fate had a number of free State prison ers, whom lie arranged in front as a shield, then his company fell back, under cover of the unarmed prisoners, and hid behind logs and trees. The free State men then dropped down hi the grass, and a scattered firing was kept up for two hours, till Pate surrendered uncondi tionally. Three Missourians of Pate’s party escaped, among them Coleman the murderer of Dow. The free State party took thirty horses, a number of Sharpe’s rifles and United States muskets, besides a quantity of goods stolen at Lawrence. A party of pro-slavery men, including rv son of Governor Shannon, made a night attack on the house of Capt. Walker, five miles from Le compton, but they were repulsed, and young Shannon taken prisoner. He was released on the following day, after which Shannon took a company of the United States Dragoons, and spent two days in searching the houses of free State men, taking possession of all the arms and ammunition which could be found. June 10, I\ M.—A man who has just ar rived here from Kansas City, says a general rendezvous of pro-slavery men is appointed at Bull Creek, preparatory to another attack on Lawrence. Gen. Whitfield is to command. They expect to. concentrate six hundred men before starting. The men are mostly furnish ed with United States muskets. The free State men are deficient in arms and provisions. It is rumored that Donaldson and other pro-sla very men were killed in tiie fight among them selves at Franklin—the difficulty growing out of the distribution of goods stolen nt Law rence. ITEMS. Mr. Albon P. Bearing, of Athens, bus been unanimously elected President of the Athens Bank. Efforts are on foot in Bangor, Ms.,- for the raising of men and money to aid the Free State cause in Kansas. Mr. Edwards, a member from New York, has given notice of his intention to introduce a bill to remove the seat of government from Washington to within five miles of Cincinnati. Gen. Jackson once said “that over the doors of each house of Congress, the letters of gold, should be inscribed in words: “The slanderer is worse than the murderer.’ “ The Republicans of Illinois have nominated a German for Lt. Governor and y German for State Senator—F. 11. Hoffman for the first office and A. Hccker for the second. In Chicago, §30,000 have been subscribed, to aid the Kansas Emigrants, and 200 able bodied men have volunteered hi go there.— The neighborhood is also contributing largely, in sums of one and two thousand dollars The elegant mansion and grounds at George town, recently occupied by Mr. Crampton, the British ex-minister, hove been taken by M. sartigcs, the French ambassador, who will oc cupy it during his future sojourn in this coun try. The steamship Ocean Bird, built at Green port, New York, a year or two since, with the expectation of being able to cross the Atlantic Ocean in sis days, lias been purchased by a Havana house, and sailed on Thursday from Now 1 ork for Havana. Her name has been changed to “E! l’ajaro del Oceana.” A letter to the South Carolinian, dated West Point, N. \May 27, says: “Lieut. General Scott spent yesterday at the Point, and return ed to-day to New York.
