Fire in Columbus.
Between seven and eight o’clock, on Tues
day morning the lHth instant, a fire occurred
oji Smith’s avenue, (better known us Bridge
Street) and two wooden tenements belonging
to Mr. John Code, sen., were totally destroy
ed. One was a two story tenement and occu
pied by Mr. McKay. The other was occupied
by itlr. Jacob Lowenberg and Mr. John Code,
sen. The fire originated in the part where
Mr. Lowenberg resided, and it is supposed it
canght from a stove pipe. All or a greater part
of the furniture of each family was saved, and
our citizens, and the Fire Companies in partic
lar, toiled us it were “a labor of love” to nr
rost the devastating element. During the
whole time of the fire the wind was from the
north, or otherwise the whole of the block
must have shared a similar fate. The scarci
ty of water was evident from the fact that the
water was obtained from the cistern at the
crossing of Broad ami Crawford streets. On
account #f the close proximity of tho build
ings all of intianiftble material, there should
be a cistern in that locality, anyhow, even if
the insurance companies have to build it at
their own expense.
Mr. Code’s loss is estimated at about SISOO.

Cotton Burned,
The Savannah Republican learns from a pas
senger from Augusta, that about 500 bales of
cotton were burnt in that city, on Saturday
night last—tho tiro having been communicated
by accident, from a spark during the torchlight
procession.
Two car loads,'we are informed, wero also

Buchanan 13,151. The same counties gave
Bragg 13,404 in August. Eighteen counties
remain to be heard from.
It is stated iu a Memphis (Tenn.) paper that
Hurd, tho white man arrested in that city for
being engagod in the late attempt at negro in
surrection, was transported to Arkansas by a.
party of citizens, vory severely thrashed, and
sent about his business.
Hurd resided in Tipton in the capacity of
a writing master some thyeo years since, hav
ing been discovered tampering with the ne
groes, ho was informed that the location was
not a healthy one for a man of his habits, and
lie was given three days in which to do
camp. He did not wait the expiration of tho
time, but left immediately, and was never
seen again until the receut attempt. A man
named Williams and about thirty negroes wero
also arrested and taken to Somerville.
Serious Acoident.
The Mobile Register of tho lilth instant

of the Bank of Mobile, from which fatal re
sults arc feared. From the report of his me
dical attendant, given us by a friend, wo learn
while cleaning apistol and blowing into the bar

frightfully injuring him to.suoh extent that
the worst fears were entertained for his life.

Reverdy Johnson Burnt in Effigy.
Wo learn from our exchanges that on the
evening of the 11th instant, a large crowd,
armed with guns aud clubs, proceeded to Mon

A VOICE FROM THE DEPARTED !
Axnkaiu shift. County, Md., |
On the West side of the Uhesapeakn,
November 12th, 1858. J
Friends and Partakers of our Woes!
We telegraphed you last week from the head
of the saline stream. We expected to remain
there in torpidity and in mourning weeds until
a better day dawned upon us and our cause.
But ulas how vain are human hopes and mortal
expectations! We had no sooner snugly, but
sorrowfully, ensconced ourselves, than our
whole host wero put in trembling tear and ner
vous commotion.
In the distance from our camp we perceived
a fearful affray and a telegraphic retreat. It
was the wooly horse and his cohorts pursued
aud gallantly driven by a Majestically Antler
ed Buck. Fear and trepidation were visibly
.depicted on the countenances of the Frauen t
ers, and they never recovered from the fright
until they took up their quarters with u* at
the head of Salt River. They insisted on a
vote and when it was counted it gave a bump
ing majority for the Fremonters, who claimed
themselves as the only, true, original nntl bona
fide Republican American Kuow Nothing and
anti-Democratic party.
These quarters being too hot for us, we again
sailed on the good steamer “Samuel of the
South,” and arrived here in the only Mecca of
Religious Proscription, defunct Whiggery, and
thrashed out Native Americanism,
We thought the State was too small for our
party, but I can assure you, wc have room
enough for many more. 1 did think from the
statements and assurances of the Enquirer and
Montgomery Mail that M-a-r-y-l-a-n-d would
not hold all of us. But like the calculations
of our friend Suggs—it was a grand mistake.
We have seriously considered the propriety of
giving free homes to settlers, and as we ex
pect to build a great party from them our of
fers shall be most inducive and magnanimous.
Wc have made a brilliant beginning, as Mary
land, our present home, has given me eight,
votes, “iny only all,” The Democrats having
demolished Whiggery and Know Nothingism,
what shall we dub our new party V Write soon
to your disconsolate ensign.

Amateur Musicians.
0 cense that tooting horn!
Have merry on me pray !
Don't blow all night till morn,
Ami then throughout the Bay.
Did you but know how Jong
Its harsh notes 1 have borne,
You’d turn your thouglitsato song
And lay aside that hum !
You can’t though you aspire,
One perfect tune air blow,
Then do as l desire,
Or music mad we’ll go.’
My friend lay down that horn—
.To some good set your aim,
For aught than music you were born,
To it you have no claim.
•“Odd zounds” can mortal hear
Sucli sounds, such notes, such toots—
Upon an cud it stands my hair,
And moves me out my boots!
Now friend, lay down that horn —
Or fix fur our demise.
No one thy act will mourn,
Upon resolve so wise !

Here is a pretty little poem—the concentra

bereft of a sister or mother a lengthened train
of reflections.
Dying, but yet Living.
BY THKODIIIIS TILTON.
She died—yet is not dead!
Ye saw a daisy on her tomb :
It bloom’d to die—she died to bloom;
Her summer hath not sped !
She died—-yet is not dead!
Ye saw her jewels all unset;
le>! God then gave a coronet,
To crown her ransom s head !
She died —yet It is not dead !
Ye saw her gazing toward a sky
Whose lights ne’er beam ou mortal eye.
She linger’d—-yearn'd—and lied!
She died—yet is not dead!
A messenger on noiseless wing
Korea sweet summons from the King—
She follow’d where he led!
She died —yet is not dead !
Thro’ pearly gate, o'er golden street,
She went her way with shining feet:
do ye, and thither tread!

Tho Legislature of North Carolina met at
Raleigh on Monday last. We have not yet any

one-sided party complexion of the representa

Private letters received in Philadelphia from
the lion. George M. Dallas, United States Min
ister to the Court of St. James, by his confi
dential friends, convey the important intelli
gence that he has succeeded iu negotiating a
treaty between the United States and England,
which covers and settles all the points In dis
pute between the two countries. It lias been
the earnest desire of President Pierce and Sec
retary Marcy to accomplish this difficult task
before retiring from office, so that all possible
troubles might bo smoothed away for the iu
ooming administration. The instructions given
Mr. Dallas, when he entered upon this mission
have been zealously ucted up to by him, and
the result has been most happy, as above no
ted.— American.

We learn from the Galveston News of the
Oth. that tho election in that city passed off’
thero being very little excitement and
not a single disturbance of any kind at the
polls.
The vete was as follows: Buchanan 408,
Fillmore 800. This, the News believes, is the
largest vote over polled in Galveston.
The Galveston News of the Oth, in its com
mercial article, says:
Business generally has been quiet during
tho week. Both Brazos and Trinity rivers are
reported tot low for navigation. About crops
we have no additional accounts of interest
from tho couutry. Cotton picking had Closed
iu many sections, and the number of wagons
employed in lmuling to Houston and Uichtnond
is very large. Trade at both those points is
quite active.
Wc had chaugeable weather firing the week;
on Monday afternoon we hud a heavy l ain,
accompanied by a thunder storm, and during
the night a severe norther set in, which is now
lulling down; it was quite cool, but we have
nosigus of front.
Steps have been taken to revive the Cham
ber of Commerce in this city, with a view of
regulating efistums of business, and agreeing
upon rules for the weighing and delivery of cot
ton by the State—weigher apointed in accord
ance with an act of the last Legislature.
The ship Apffllo, from Bremen, with 240 em
igrants, till in good health, arrived at Galves
ton ou the morning of the 6th instant.
The partial failure of tho crops iu many of
the upper counties of Western Texas, is caus
ing many families to remove to the East,
where the abundance of wheat and the success
of other crops render provisions plentiful aud
cheap. The Brazos Statesman says that the
streets and tho public highways leading to and
through Waco have been lined, for two or
three weeks past, with emigrants going north
and eastward.
The brig Anna, from Oldenburg, Germany,
with ninety-four emigrants, arrived at Galves
ton on the 28th ult.
Glider the heading, “Important to Texas
Creditors,” tlfe Austin Times lias the follow
ing:
The Comptroller, Mr. Shaw, says all first
class certificates of debt issued by the Auditor
and Comptroller, also Treasury notes, and
eight and ten per cent, bonds, should be for
warded to the Treasury Department, at Wash
ington City, accompanied with releases and as
signments according to the forms designated
in the Circular of said Department, on or be
fore the first day of Jan., 1857, or they will be
barred. I’ersons iu possession of any of these
claims should not fail to comply with the reg
ulation ; if they do they will incur loss.
The It (Alston Telegraph learns that Major
Neighbors has had an interview with the Ca
mauche chief, and that outlie 14tli of October
he made a treaty with them by which the Ca
manclies, who have hitherto held out, will now
come on the reservation. The Telegraph re
marks that by this important treaty peace will
bo secured to a large portion of the frontier
hitherto subject to continual Indian incursions.
The Columbia Democrat, of the,4th instant,
says:
The cotton picking is now drawing to a close;
most planters will be through by the middle of
the present month. They are going over it the
last time now. In the upper part of this
couuty and in Wharton county we learn that
in hardly any case has a full crop been made,
and iu many cases not half a crop.
Our sugar planters seem to be at a loss to
know what to do with the little cane they have
got. Some are prophesying that the fall will
be a late and warm one, and they are deter
mined to let their cane stand for s-atne time
longer, as it is growing finely. Others unwil
ling to risk the chance of an early frost, are
determined to save what seed they can. On
many plantations the cane now growing will
no more than plant the same ground ; in other
cases it will do much better, and on a few
places partial crops will be made.
The Gonzales Inquirer, of the Ist instant,
reports delightful weather during the past
week, and says cotton picking is going on at a
brisk rate.
The same paper says:
We are plcsed to learn that nearly all the
wheat raised in this country this year has been
engaged for seed. The flouring mill, which
Messrs. Hunter & Cliesnault will attach to
their saw mill, has induced a great many of
our farmers to procure seed sunl raise wheat
next year. Hereafter every barrel of flour
consumed in this country will be a home pro
duction —murk that.

The domain of Marengo is situated near Al

Excellent Repartee.
The Rov. Dr. M’O , minister of Doug
las iu Clydesdale, was one day dining in a
largo party where the Hon. Henry Erskine
an 1 some other lawyers were present. A great
dish of cresses being presented after dinner,
l)r. M’C., who was extravagantly fond of ve
getables, helped himself much more largely
than any other person, and os lie ate with his
fingers, with u pecuMur voracity of manner,
Mr. Erskine was struck with the idea that he
resembled Ncbuchaduezxer in his state of con
demnation. Resolved to give him a hit tor the
apparent prossne#* of his taste and manner of
eating, the wit mid re-sell hint with “Dr. M’C.,
ye bring me in mind of the great king Nebti
chadnezzer ; and the company were beginning
to titter nt the ludicrious allusion ; when the
revert ii \ ege table devourur replied, “Ay, do 1

What Mr. Choate says of the Democratic
Party.
Mr. Choate thus eulogises the Democratic
party:
“There never was an election contest, that,
iu denouncing the particulars of policy, I did
not admit that the characteristic of the Demo
cratic party was this: That it had burned ever
with that great master passion this hour de
mands; a youthful, vehement, exultant, and
progressive nationality. Through some errors,
into some perils it has been led by ; it may be
so again; we may require to temper, and re
strain it; but to-day we need it all, we need it
all!—tliej hopes—the boasts-—the pride—the
universal tolerance—the gay and festive defi
ance of foreign dictation—the flag—the music
—all tho emotions—all the traits—all the en
ergies, that have won their victories of war,
and their miracles of national advancement—
the country needs them all now to win a victo
ry of peace. That done, 1 will pass again,
happy and content, into that minority of con
servatism in which 1 have passed my life.”
The Charleston Duel.
Among the many newspaper articles which
the lamented duel iu Charleston has called
forth, we have seen none more pointed and
forcible than the following from the Ceutral
Presbyterian. The editor is evidently -of the
opinion of Sir John Falstntf, that “honor hath
no skill in surgery,” and if there be apy who
doubt this, then “ask him wiio died o’ Wednes
day :”—-A l<r. Jour.
“A duel settles no principles, elicits no
truth, vindicates uo innocence, proves no man
brave. It places the aggressor and the ag
grieved upon the same footing. The injured
party invites the man who has wronged hinito
take away his life in addition—and this is call
ed ‘satisfaction!’
“Honor is a thing to becherisked aud rever
ed, but surely true honoris not cruel, honoris
not irrational, honor is not lawless. Honor is
magnanimous, gentle, tender. Why then
should that code be called ‘the code of honor’
which Violates the laws of God and man, which
conflicts with the enlightened pro'ests of the
living, and the keen regrets of the dying; which
robs the country of those, upon whom it has
claims; which makes devoted wives widows,
ami dependent children orphans; which plun
ges the innocent and the loving into an abyss
of hopeless sorrow!”

A Certain Cure for a Felon.
We are sure that all who have suffered from
a genuine bone felon, will tkauk us for making
public so simple and yet so effectual a remedy
as the following. In thousands of instances,
weeks and months of tho most intense suffer
ing have been endured, allowing of neither
rest by day nor sleep by night, and when a
euro is at last effected, the finger or thumb is
oi'teu deformed for life. As soon as it becomes
apparent that a felon is making its appearance
which is known by a continued soreness and
pain proceeding from the bone, and sometimes
evincing but little change for the worse for a
week or two, take a strong cord of any kind,
and wrap it around the finger, above the afflic
ted part, as tight as it can possibly be borne.
Keep it in this condition until the pain can be
endured no longer. Now loose .the cord, and
as soon as the pain caused by the cording sub
sides, tighten it again. Continue this for sev
eral days, or until the felon is completely
blackened and killed. We have known several
persons who had been afflicted with felons to
try this remedy with success ; in fact, we have
never known it to fail. The cording stops the
circulation, and thus the sore has nothing
to feed on, and soon dies of starvation. We
have faith in this remedy, even after a felon
has made considerable progress.— Exchange.

University of Nashville.
We arc pleased to learn that this institution
is in a highly flourishing condition and is meet
ing the expectations of its warmest friends.—
In the Literary Department, which is under
the care of a most excellent Faculty, there are
now in attendance one hundred and forty-nine
students, and the number is daily increasing.
Seventy-two of these are from Tennessee;
twenty-two from Louisiana; twenty-one from
Mississippi; ten from Alabama; seven from
lowa ; four from Georgia; three from Illinois ;
two from Texas; two from Kentucky; two
from Indiana, and one from South Carolina.
The Medical Department has hitherto suc
ceeded beyond the calculations of the most
sanguine of its founders, and we are gratified
iu being able to announce, that the session just
opening promises a larger number of students
than ever. The preliminary course of Lectures
closed with two hundred and eighty-three stu
dents, who hail from the following States : one
hundred and fifty-two from Tennessee, forty
three from Alabama, twenty-eight from Missis
sippi, twenty-four from Georgia, fifteen from
Kentucky, eight from Texas, four from Arkan
sas, two from South Carolina, one from New
York, one from Rhode Island and one from the
Cherokee Nation.
The class will no doubt number over four
hundred, and shows a commendable spirit
among the citizens of this and the neighboring
States, and a determination to support their
own institutions.— Xashi'ille Courier.
An Editor’s Life.
“The poorest blind horse, in the most un
compromising bark-mill, has his moments of
relaxation. To him the sound of the tannery,
bell, announcing noon, is a tocsin of joy, and
he looks forward with grateful anticipation to
his prandial oats and mill feed. Tho wearisome
round is stopped ; the uulubricatcd gudgeons
quaver out a last squeak, and cease their com
plaining ; the trace chain rattles over the ani
mal's back, and he attempts a youthful canter
as ho moves off, a happy old horse. With him
there are no anticipatory woes : he works in a
circle, but a certain number of turns are sure
to bring a respite. But with the editor it is
otherwise; his life is, as Mr. Mantiliui feel
ingly remarks, “one darn’d grind ” —his ma
chine never stops. Hot weather, head-ache,
sickness at home, are no relief to his perpet
ual routine, for the paper must come out, and
“copy must be furnished.”
