GO LUMBUB: Wtdiieeday Morning, Nov. *O, 1850. I.ARUENT CITY CIRC Cl. ATI ON. ——.-ft-- . •v-r~ -—.... Left for Apalachicola. The steamer Cusseta, Capt. Stubblefield, left yesterday for Apalachicola, with about four hundred bales of cotton and other freight. Head his Cord. Mr. J. J. Jones presents to-day through the columns of the Sun, a partial list of the substantial to be found at his store. Those near his locality should give him a call and supply themselves at reasonable cost. Silks at Cost. Read the advertisement of Messrs. Calhoun & Johnson, who offer a largo assortment of fashionable Silks at cost, and then give them a call. ♦ Successful Launch. On yesterday evening tho steamer Wave was successfully launched into the bosom of the element, which we hope she may long navi gate to the profit of her enterprising owners. A large concourse of people assembled to witness the debut, and a great many persons who were anxious for the sight, were sadly disappointed, by the launch being made at least an hour before the time published by au thority, in the Sun of yesterday. Her draught cannot be determined until she receives her engines and cabin. She is ac knowledged to be a triumph of Georgia skill and energy, * City Side Walks. We hear many grievous complaints from many of our city pedestrians who are, on ac count of the mucky condition of our streets, compelled to perambulate on the little portion of the brick side walks now visible to the hu man eye. Without the person walking along has a regular pair of Wellington boots, or has the activity to leap like a Kangaroo ho is cer tain to go “ker-chug” into a pool of water not slightly impregnated with mud. If we know who were to blame for the ex istence and inaiutainauce of the evil we would certainly demand an instantaneous repair of the aforesaid footways. Tatum’s Sacred Paintings. Wse have beforo us the opinions of the press of Washington City, Richmond, Va., and Nashville, Tenn., aud we must say that they speak enthusiastically of the productions of this young American Artist. The National Intelligencer, Tho Republic, Washington News, National Whig, Washington Union, Nashville Christian Advocate, Banner of Peace, and tho Richmoud ltepublican, are alike lavish in their praise. The Paintings are entitled the Re demption or Delineations of Passions —Cruci- fixion and the Resurrection of Christ. They contain about 300 square feet of Can vass, representing more than forty characters, full size of life. Mr. James D. Tatum, a brother of the Artist, now on a visit to his re lations, and tho present owner of these su blime Paintings, has, at the solicitations of many friends who have seen them, kindly con sented to allow them to be exhibited, this even ing, at Temperance Hall. See advertisement and handbills of tho day. New Masonic Hall Building- Through the kiudness and courtesy of Mr: Deunis St. Leger, the contractor of the carpen ter work, wo wero politely conducted through almost evory part of this magnificent brick structure, and obtained from him the follow ing details. Two store rooms each 100 feet deep and ’25 in width, and a fine cellar under each of the storos. Tho second story contains five rooms twenty feet square, aud one room 100 feet long and 20 feet wide. The third story contains four office or sleep ing rooms; a Masonic Ilall leased for 15 years, fifty feet by thirty-seven feet, and five ante rooms. The Masonic llall is beautifully finished with hard plaster, and the whole plastering was doue by Mr. Edward Faber. The brick work was reared and constructed under the careful supervision of Mr. Audrew Ramsey. The building has a tin roof aud the water from the back conductor is conveyed to a cis tern in the rear of the buildiug, which is a very wise thought on the part of the owner. Tho wholo cost of the buildiug is about four teen thousand dollars. We learn the Masonic Hall will be dedicated on the 27th December next. The Presentments of the first l’annel of the Grand Jury of Muscogeecouuty, appears by or der of that body, in the Enquirer of yesterday. Fearing we might give displeasure, we forbear trnnsferiug it to tho columns of the Bun. ———♦ “ The Last State of that Man 1” They made a lawyer of our friend, John, of of the Selina Sentinel, at tho late session of Shelby Court. John was sharp enough and wicked enough, before —the Lord deliver us now! • The above unkind remark we clip from the Montgomery Mail, of the 24th inst., and let people say what they may, it smacks mightily of the truth of the adage of “Satan reproving Sin.” But, however, our friend Jonco is evi dently wrong about it improving a man’s sharpness by an admission to the bar, (the legal one we mean), from the fact he has found himself nowise sharp in his guesses or calcu lations on tho past Presidential election ! Jonce your legal attainments have made you more wicked thau sharp. Swift Hetribution. Wheu they do nab a scoundrel in England whose crime can be legally punished, they mako short work of him. About the same time that Huntington, the great forger, was arrested here, a man named Robson, who had defrauded the Crystal Palace at Sydenham of £IO,OOO was arrested in England* The City of Washington brings the intelligence that Robson has been indicted, tried, found guilty and sentenced to 20 year’s imprisonment. Huntington, on the oontrary, has not yet been indUUd.— N. Y. Times. The Pine Arts. We had, on yesterday, the pleasure-of hast ily examining a part of the products of the ur tistical genius of Mr. J. Mnier. The portraits of Messrs. A. 11. Stephens aud Robert Toombs, two of the most distinguished political leaders in Georgia, we pronounce to be exact aud faithful likenesses, as near as we can discern, The “Cattle” scene, too, is a picture of very life like appeurauce, ami the proportions of the animals stand forth on the canvass as liv ing beasts. We recognized one of the quad ruple which was exhibited by Col. R. G. Pe ters, a year or more since, at the Montgomery fair’ and which received a premium. The sheep and goats arc fully up iii truthfulness of portraiture; and the scenery in the back ground appropriate—seemingly natural! The “Fruit Piece” is an exquisite piece of art, and brings up many pleasant reminiscences of the fruitful and joyous summer just borne away upon the wings of time ; and it causes us to wish the season of melons, grapes, plums, etc., will speedily return. “Spring” is a magnificent picture and the idea of the poet expressed in these lines : “Tho quean of the spring as she passed down the vale, Left her robes on tlio tress and her breath‘on the gale,” is vividly and beautifully transmitted witli ori ginal taste and faithfulness to canvass. The portrait of a little girl is a gem in its way, and we could not help exclaiming, when viewing it: “A thinj’ of l>ennty is u joy forever ? ” The Vice President Elect- Tho following sketch of the Vice President elect is by a correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce: “Lkxinuton, Ky., Oct. 30, 1850.—After a pleasant ride amid the beautiful but fertile fields of Kentucky, 1 am onco again safely en sconced within this beautiful place that was so long the abiding place of Henry Clay and now is the residence of that noble son of honor and fame, John C. Breckinridge. To know him is enough to prove the scholar, gentleman, and statesman who will fill the office of Vice Presi dent by virtue of the election on Tuesday next. He is all that the party could wis for, as a champion of their principles, lie commenced life poor and friendless—his parents being dead, tie began as a teacher of a common school, and through perseverance and hard study he entered upon his collegiate course with the avails of his labor. At this period of life a wealthy uncle became much interested in him, but, upon his avowal of democratic principles, the bond of friendship was severed. Yet the young and aspiring genius contiuued on, and finally graduated with the highest hon ors of his class. As an orator, he combines the clear and comprehensive soundness of a Webster and Clay : and, in connexion, has a beautiful and flowery style of expression and a copious supply of words of a chaste and re fined character equal to the greatest. To use the expression of a neighbor of his “When he opens his mouth it is to give utterance to tho most beautiful, chaste and classic language, like a rare collection of buds, which, as they open and expand, develope new beauties con tinually.” In his social position, with such a refinement and cultivated manner, he is es teemed by all who know him. He will add a lustre to his party unequalled in the history of one so young.” Advices from Nicaragua to the Ist inst. give some additional details relative to'the through route of the Central American Allies, by the forces of Gen. Walker.at. Massaya and Grana da, on the 12th and 13th ult. At Massaya three wells had been filled with their dead, having from eighty to one hundred bodies in each. Another hundred had been buried by the Americans at Granada. Gen. Walker had only fourteen mon killed. Fifty-eight Guate malans were taken prisoners, and kept work ing in the chain gangs in Granada. What Douglas said at Toledo. The Little Giani. was not allowed to pass a single station between Chicago and Cleveland without the people calling him out. At Tole do, the Mayor was forced to mako a speech at him in behalf of the multitude which flocked to seo him, and to which he thus replied. The Republican says: Mr. Douglas responded to tho enthusiastic applause with which he was received, in his usual eloquent and energetic stylo. lie grace fully acknowledged the flattering compliment conveyed in so imposing an impromptu dem onstration—and said it was but a short time since he might have traveled from Boston to Chicago by the light of his own effigies, burn ing iu every villago where abolitionism could muster courage enough to attempt the dis graceful act—tho sole provocation for which was that he had dared to introduce a bill al lowing tho peoplo of every state and of every territory to regulate their affairs in their own way. But he congratulated his hearers that the just principle of that bill had been adopted and made a fundauicntaljprinciple'of our gov ernment ; and ho felt a proud satisfaction in tho approval and endorsement of his own course and that of liis gallant colleague, Gen. Shields, embodied in the triumphant election of tho veteran statesman, James Buchanan, to the Presidency.” Tho Sugar Crop. Au intelligent planter of Louisiana, writing to us from Assumption parish, Nov. 16th, says: “ The sugar crop will not reach 100,000 hhds.; I think it will be between seventy five thousand and one hundred thousand.” In 1849, Louisiana produced 226,000 hhds. of 1000 lbs. each. ——- Progress of Nashville. Tenn. The Gazette, of that city, published on Fri day last, says: Nashville, since it was first founded, has j never improved half so rapidly as now. Its progress is of as substantial a character as it iis rapid. We are informed that, with all the I improvements going on under our eyes, there i are some 20 or 30 gentlemen exceedingly anx i ious to build, but can not find mechanics to execute the work. There is in our midst a great demand for brick masons, stone masons, carpenters, painters, paper-hangers, and eve ry otherclass of mechanics. Good wages, con i stant employment, and a delightful place of . residence. Come one. come all. Transient Young Men. Girls, beware of transient young men ; nev er suffer the addresses of a stranger : recollect ! that one good farmer-boy or mechanic is worth all the floating trash in the worbl. The allure ments of a dandy jack with a gold chain about his neck, a walking stick in his paw; some honest tailor’s coat upon his back; and a brainless skull, can never make up the loss of a kind father’s house, a good mother’s coun sel and the society of brothers and sisters ; their affections last, while that of the young man is lost at the wane of the honey-moon. MY MAiiY. She blossomed iu tlie country, Where an any bummer flings Her P’Hy arms about the earth, Ami brightest blessings brings. Health was her sole inheritance, Amt graced her only dower; I never dreamed the wild wood Contained so sweet a flower. Far distant from the city, And inland front the ea, My Mary bloomed In goodness, As pure as pure could be. She caught her dewy freshness From hill aud mountain bower , 1 never dreamed the wildwood Contained so sweet a flower. The rainbow must have lent lier Some of its airy grace ; The wild rose purteil with a blush That nestled on her fiice, Tim sunbeams got entangled in The long waves of her hair, (Jr she bad never grown to he So modest and so fair. The early birds have taught her The joyous matin song, And some of their soft innocence, She’s been with them so long. And for her now, if need lie,’ I’d part witli wealth and power; I never dreamed the wildwood Contained so sweet a flower. Bpiritual Hevelations. The X. Y. Tribune publishes a communica tion from one “G. B. Giles,” of Boton, giving some interesting statements of recent revela tions iu a spiritual circle in the Athens of America. One of the circle was a young man who had lately been obliged to go into chance ry, having been defrauded by bis partner iu the wholesale shoe business. It appears that he had a disappointment in love. Fie interro gated the spirits, says the correspondent, ‘as to what branch of business he should now take up for the purpose of renovating his fortunes: whereupon the medium ; one of the ladies, a Miss S., rapped out ‘go into the confectionary business!’ Receiving so prompt an answer, lie exclaimed, his whole frame racked with emotion, ‘is there any female now living to whom 1 should pay my addresses, and if so, to whom ‘! ’ The medium promptly answered, ‘Yes, Miss S.’ This was the medium herself, who, covered with confusion, exclaimed at once that she had in vain tried to refrain from speaking those words, but the spirit compelled their utterance. The young man soon after went into the confectionary business, and has succeeded far beyond his expectations, and last month he married Miss S., a young lady of beauty and a high degree of fancy and ge nius. Their married life is destined to be happy.” Os course their married life will be most happy ! None but a churl be otherwise than happy with such a modest and artless female as this medium. We recommend her fortune spouse, however, to keep her well supplied with confectionary. So much for the success of the single ladies. Here is an instance in which one of the “vid ders” tried her haud with excellent luck. A widow lady of mature age, Mrs. G., called upon her husband, who, we are informed is in the realms of bliss. “Edward,” Bhe said, “may I marry again ? ” The medium, a Miss 8., rapped out, “Yes, Marry Ann, I shall not be jealous, there is no jealousy in Heaven!” “Who shall I marry? ” said she. The me dium rapped, “A gentlemen in n checked vest, blue dress coat and grey pants; his name I know not.” At this we all instinctively turn ed to a Mr. L., one of our number, dressed exactly like the spirit’s description. Starting up, he exclained, “What! me!” and the spirit replied, “The same! ” Mrs. G. and Mr. L. thereupon retired from tho group, and af ter a short conversation, discovered that there really was a very striking elective affinity be tween them, and they have since been married and are happy, though ha is 20 years the ju nior. The correspondent, who is a widower, was also favored with an interview with his wife. She stated that site was in heaven aud endur ed her separation with much composure. When asked about the quality of the society in her new locatien, she said: “There are many very pleasant ladies and gentlemen here. Your former friend W. has showed me partic ular attention. 1 also find P. very pleasant and often dance with him.” Wheu interroga ted about her husband marrying again she said: “No! you must devote yourself to spir itualism.” Mr. Giles is a very credible and pleasant gentleman, liis stories are somewhat marv ellous, but entertaining. ■ A Great Honey Crop. Mr M. Guimby, of Montgomery county, New York, has sold this year upwards of 20,- 000 pounds of honey, principally produced by himself. Himself and son make the produc tion of honey’ a business, and undoubtedly a very profitable one. The honey is deposited by the bees in small cheap boxes, with glass sides and ends, and sold in the same, by weight, including the weight of boxes. Sunday in New York. According to the New York Express, the New York Sunday is becoming more like that of Paris than that of an American city. The Express says that on Sundey last, the upper part of the city looked not a iittle like a race course. All sorts of vehicles were out; grog shops free and open ; target firing and gun ning doing a large business, and at night, dance houses and free concerts lively and noi sy till a late hour. The Express thinks that if the Free Soil pulpit should rebuke these things, it would be told that it has no right to say a word, having itself commenced the work of desecrating the Lord’s day by introducing politics into tho pulpit. Another Presidential Ticket. The American party of Trenten, N. J., held a meeting on Friday evguing last, aud nomin ated for the Presidency, in 1860, Commodore Robert F. Stockton, and tor the Vice Presiden cy Hon. John M. Botts. Counterfeiter Arrested. The Cleveland (Tenn.) Herald, of the 14th inst., says a man holding a somewhat respon sible office in this county, was arrested a few days ago on a charge of passiug counterfeit bills of the Bank of Cape Fear, N. C. The name not given. The Huntsville (Ala.) Advo cate of Oct. 30th contains the following notice of au arrest of a counterfeiter in that place, which induces the belief that there is a regu lar band engaged in the business in the neigh borhood of Cleveland. “ On Saturday last a man named William Moore was arrested ia this place. A letter ad dressed to him from Cleveland, Tenn., contain ing five ten dollar bills on the Bank of Cape Fear, N. C., was takeu out by Col. W. H. Moore, lie of course returned it to the post office, statiug its contents. It was evidently from a head counterfeiter to one of his gang, directing $8 iugood money to be sent back for the SSO in counterfeit—that lie had other kinds and next time would send South Carolina mo ney. It was signed “T. O.” This letter was called for by a man (anew comer Imre) who said his name was Wm. Moore—he opened the letter in the presence of the Postmaster, said it wis Ink letter and was arrested. And on Monday, after au examination before It. D. Wile A. Csq., he was, iu default of SIOOO bail, committed to jail. Tlie Hoax on the London Times. Central R. R. & Banking Cos. of Ga., i Savannah, Nov. 19, 1856! j To (he Editors bj the Sauannah Jlejru/dican — American citizens now in London, kindly called my attention to the London Times of the 15th and 16th days of October last, in which appeared the article “ Railways and Revolvers in Georgia,” and comments thereon by the editor. I awaited the return to Savannah of my friend, Mr. Molyneuux, Her Britannic Majes ty’s Consul, and then addressed through him the editor of the Times, a letter, copy of which is herewith.’ I also sent to London addressed to one of the American citizens referred to, a copy of the last unnual report of the Company and a copy of its Rail Road Schedule aud Rules. As friends of the Company in Georgia have asked me to give a denial of Mr. Arrowsmith’s statement, in one of our own gazettes, 1 ask your insertion of this. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, R. R. CUYLER. Centra! R. 11. & Banking Cos. ovGa., ) Savannah, Nov. 13, 1856. j ; To the Editors of the London Times : Sir: My attention has been called, by high ly respectable American citizens iu London, i to an article published in .your issue of the 15th October, ult., purporting to give an ac count of a trip on the Railway line from Macon to Augusta, aud of certain duels fought and murders perpetrated, on the 28th day of Au gust last. I beg permission to assure you and your numerous readers that the whole account from beginning to end, is a sheer fabrication. I was in the city of Savannah on the 28th of August, and know there is not a word of truth in the statement. I have been connected with this Company since the day of its organization in the year 1835, and have been its President since the year 1842. There has never been a distur bance of any kind at any time, on the road. Ladies having constantly traveled over it, un der the conductors, and I never knew or heard of the least affront being offered to one. Not a singlo instance of complaint, by a passenger, malo or female, of any incivility, by employees or others, has ever been made to me during my long service. I take great pride and pleasure in being able to say, truthfully, what I have said. And I ask your permission to add that only one passenger has been killed by accident on the Road—l 92 miles in length—since the company commenced operation. The same good order which prevails on the road of this company, marks all tho other roads of Georgia, and throughout our country gen erally. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant. It. It. CUYLEIt, President. A Silver Chamber. The Sultan of Turkey intends having a good time. He is building a silver chamber. All the furniture and appurtenances of the bou doir to be composed entirely of solid silver. The round table in the midst is of admirable workmanship ; the surface is of polished sil ver, engraved in rich arabesques, the legs of twisted pattern highly burnished. The sofas, the chairs, and the piano are all of the same precious material. The boudoir is to be hung with cloth of gold, looped with silver cord. It seems that the Sultan has destined this unique specimen of oriental recklessness of expense to be his favorite retreat in the garden of the seraglio, whence every ray of daylight is al waj's to be excluded, and where he intends to retire for the repose and solitude he cannot enjoy in tbejpalace. A Coincidence. The N. Y. Times notes: “There is a curious similarity between tho accident to Lyonnais and that of the Arctic steamers. It both cases the vessel that inflicted the injury put back to port, supposing herself to be the damaged party, and neither knew the extent of the in jury inflicted upon the steamer. Nor did’ either stop to examine or inquire.” Price of Hogs. . The market continues dull nnd inanimate, with no buyers .of hogs at. over -4 cents gross. Messrs. Hunt, Hull & Cos. slaughtered 400 head Saturday, and cut them up yesterday. Several other packers will probably commence to-day. By private dispatches from Cincin nati, on Saturday everting, we learn that hogs were selling there at sjjc. net. Mess pork soid at $14.75 per bhl. This is a large decline.— Louisville Courier , Monday. The Late Terrible Disaster. In the New York papers we find full parti culars of the loss of the steamer Lyonnais.— Below we copy what lias not already appeared within our columns on the subject: The iron screw steamship Le Lyonnais, Capt De Vftix, sailed from this port, on Saturday, Nov. 1, for Havre, with the following named passengers: Mrs. F. C. Hammer, T. G. Gibson, Mrs. 0. A. (Jammer, Mr. Scheltcr and lady, M. Solomon, Mr. Van Luis, Mrs. Stroug, C. Beaugrand, Mr. Bailey and lady. E. DeMontiguey, Philip Guglielml, Mr. Traburoa, * J. F.

She also had twenty i thousand dollars in specie on freight. Eleven of the crew wero saved, and five of the passengers, whose names are as follows: Mr. Scheler and wife, M. Domingo, Flora I Solomon, M’lle. Ernestine Bellett. Preserve Your Hair. To those who are not aware that each parti cular hair on the head is a hollow tube, 1 through which the fluids circulate which con vey nourishment, and impart its peculiar shade i of color, it seems incomprehensible how resto < ratives can produce a renovating influence. Wldle preparations of this nature were entrus ted to quacks, aud ignorant manufacturers of perfumes and cosmetics, much and irreparable mischief was inflicted on many a credulous and deluded sufferer. But when scientific men like Professor Wood, bring the lights of physiology and ehomistry to bear upon the treatment of such specialities, the result is the complete suceess-which the certificates of thou sands relieved sufferers hear testimony to. 1 See his advertisement.— Detroit Catholic Adv. t oi s rav it vms. 1 1 W j .JUST received and for sale by IvH t Nov, afl, raft*.
