COLUMBUS: I, AUGUST CITY CIRCULATION. Tnaaday Morn lag, April #B, 1857. Children Want Homes. We are requested to state that there are several intelligent boys and girls, from the ages of seven to fourteen years, at the County Pool- House, about two miles from the city, whom the Commissioners of the Poor would apprentice to suitable persons. Application can be made to E. C. llow en, Esqr., at the Poor House. A dispatch from Washington states that Ben McCulloch, of Texan Ranger memo ry has been tendered the Governorship of Utah Territory. The same dhpatch states that the mail eontraot upon the Panama Kail Hoad across the Isthmus, has been taken at SIOO,OOO per annum for two years. The Frost in the Canebrake. The Demopolis (Ala.) Gazette, in the midst of the great cotton region of Al abama—the Canobrake —says : “ Our peaches are all killed, vegetables have all been destroyed that could be, and corn and cotton has been laid low and the plant ing operations generally retarded. The Selma (Ala,) Sentinel says counter feit twenty dollar bills on the Hank of Charlotte, N. C., ore in circulation in that vicinity, which may ho detecUd by the coarseness of tho puper and roughness of the engaving. Mr. Sullivan’s Recovery. Tho Petersburg Democrat, of Tuesday, says: ’’Mr. W. 11. Sullivan, of Charles ton, 8. C., who fell from the cars over the long bridge on the Petersburg and Rich mond Railroad, pnssed through our city yesterday towards his homo. He is quite recovered in health. W. F. Arthur, Esq., Secretary of State of South Carolina, died in Columbia last week. W. M. R. Hunt, a deputy in the office, has been appointed by the Gov ernor to fill the vacancy till the meeting of the legislature. The Tuscaloosa (Ala.) Monitor contains the announcement of the lion. William R. Smith for re-election to Congress from that district. Billy is a whole team, aud although Buchanan carried tho district in the late Presidential contest, we are in clined to think he will give them a hard tussel, if he docs not coiue off first best. Smith is an ultra American, and one of the best stumpers in the State. The Monitor says ho is at present nt his home In Fayette, recruiting for the summer campaign, and will he on the field when it is known what opponent is destined to political death at his hands. Fire in Montgomery. Blips from the Montgomery Advertiser and Mail, inform us of a very destructive fire which broke out in tho Eclipse Livery Stables on Lawrence Street, in that city about 1 o'clock Sunday morning, When discovered, it was burning in the loft among the Hay &c., and was seen before It broke through tbo roof. The Mail says very soon Col. 11. P. Watson, (with his servant, Bob,)Fred. Tyler, officer Thomas, and oue or two others, were on the spot, and succeeded in getting out by the front doors, some 16 or 20 horses, while it is supposed that some 60 were enabled to escape by the back gAte being forced open —2O to 30 horses are probably burnt.— Tbo valuable and well known Trotting Stallion, Bob Logic, property of Mr. Hitch cock, was certainly destroyed; and so were Fred. Tyler’s two Fast Trotters, Col. J. 11. Weaver’s fine horse, and Mr. Wm. G. Farley’s dashing mare. Besides these, David Carter has probably lost three or more, and Mr. Croshnw, one tho proprie tors of the stable, lias lost several very valuable ones. Mr. Orton’s Circus Com pany lost several horses. In fact, the sta blea burnt so rapidly that tho wonder is, that 70 or 80 horses, (probably) out of (say) 106 to 110 were saved. We incline to think that S3OO would not be over the average valuation of tho lot of fine ani mals which met this cruel death. The flames next oomtnunicutrd to the building occupied by Brown & Bulger as Negro tra ding houses, which were soon consumed. The next uud last house which caught on fire and burned, was that of Mrs. Sayre, situated on Monroe Bt., and occupied by- Mr. Moore as a residence. The Circus canvas opposite tho fire was promptly struck; if it hnd caught the most valuable part of Montgomery must have been destroyed. The entire loss is estimated at $30,000. The cheif misfortune of the night, was the falling of Mr. James Porter into the well attached to the livery stable, while assisting the firemen iu un effort to put out the fiie which was burning over an immense pile of corn. The well is forty feet deep, and there was a piece of timber in it, which made the accident more seri ous. On this, the Mail learns, Mr. Por ter fell, breaking both bones of his leg below the kuee, and thigh bone. He was perfectly calm and collected ; gavo direc tions about the rope which was carried down to biui; and being drawn up, was enrried home on a door. At 10 o'clock Bunday morning the editor of the Mail eaw Mr. Porter and reports him doing well. We learn from the Tuscaloosa (Ala.) Observer, that there was a severe torna do on the afternoon of the 19th instant, in the vicinity of Maj. Benj. Blackburn’s re sidence in that county, 11 miles northeast of the city of Tuscaloosa, destroying houses, fences, &c., and killing a valuable negro man belonging to Maj. 8., by the falling of a log cabin. A Large Mule. The Central Alabamian notices a mule exhibited in Elyton, of the following di mensions:—height, 7 feet, —length, 13$ feet, —girth, 8 do, —2$ do around the arm. He was foaled in Kentucky and roiaed in Georgia. His action is repre sented as good. Later from Europe. The steamship America arrived at Hal ifax, on Friday, the 24th instant, bring ing advices from Liverpool to the 11th instant. The returns of the late elections iu Eng land show a net gain of sixty-five in Par liament for the Ministerial party The English Government furnishes three steamers to assist in layiug the telegraph ic cable. Communications are passing between France, England nnd Spain upon the sub ject of the Mexican difficulties. Naples is more disposed to establish relations with France and England. Sixteen vessels sunk in the harbor of Sebastopol have been recovered. Turkey is inclined to consent to a union of the Principalities, provided its Sove reignty be respected and tribute paid. Tbe Danish Cabinet have resigned on account of a difficulty in politics. Austria has granted a very general am nesty to the Hungarians of the rebellion. That power, however, has thought fit to exclude Louis Kossuth from the amnesty of pardon, his affection for Austria being considered about equal to that of John Mitchel, for England. It is rumored that Lord Palmerston has given some kind of intimation to liuron Rothschild, that, if possible, the Jew ques tion shall be brought forwnrd iu the first session of the new Parliament as a Cabi net measure. Tbe internal dissensions iu tbe Government in respect to tbo subject are still, however, great. Tho Earl of Ilarrowby is inexorable. Tbe Eurl of Sliaftsbury, who is always consulted by ministers on any religious subject, has consented to support a bill for the simple repeal of the abjuration oath, but refuses to tamper with the oath by leaving out the words, “on the true faith of a Chris tian.” In the Liverpool market Cottou has declined Jd. per lb. in fair grades, but other qualities are easier. The sales of thu week comprised 40,000 bales, of which speculators took 2600 halos. Fair Or leans was quoted at BJd.; Middling Up lands 7jd.; Fair Uplands at 7j,d.; and Middling Uplands at 7 9-10d. per lb.— Tbo stock on hand comprised 500,000 bales, of which 300,000 were Arnericnn. Flour was dull, nnd Corn has declined Cd. per 480 lbs. Rice has advanced from Cd. to Is. per cwt- Other markets were unchanged. Money was slightly tighter. Consols were quoted at 92 ij. From Havana. The steamship Cuhuwba, arrived at New Orleans on Saturday, with advices from Havanu to tho 21st instant. She reports an advance of ono real in Sugar. The stock of Sugar at Havana and Matnu zas is put down at 242,000 boxes. Col. Oxnard, of New Orleans, who, recently, suddenly departed from that city for Ha vana, leaving his creditors in the lurch, and taking with him $60,000 in exchango and promissory notes obtnined from vari ous parties, upon worthless checks, lias been arrested by command of tho Captain Oeneral of Havana. A package of $13,- 000 was taken from him, nnd he ordered to leave the Island of Culm. When the Colonel departed from New Orleans he left behind him a consolatory letter to the parties whom he had come tho giraffe over, assuring them of the ultimate pay ment—the matter being merely a ques tion of time—and that they could better afford to lie out of the use of the money than personal friends to whom ho was in debted, and whom ho felt it a matter of honor to pay. Col. John Oxnard kept fino nnd last horses, splendid nnd fash ionable women, lived high, and played high nt the clubs nnd gambling saloons, and was, in thu highest sense of the term, a fast man. Georgia Baptist Convention. This body was in session iu Augusta on Saturday. The attention of the body so far has been occupied in appointing com mittees, receiving reports Ac. Tho Mer cer University is reported to be in a pros perous condition, without a President, but having its faculty organized, capable and faithful iu the discharge of their duties. The Committee recommended that the va cancy in the Presidency be tilled at the earliest convenient dny by the most com petent and satisfactory individual to be obtained; since they consider tbe exist ence of such an executive head to be a matter of paramount importance. And if to secure such a man, it should become necessary to ndvanoe the salary to twen ty five hundred dollars they recommend this to be done. The following resolution was presented by M. A. Cooper, nnd elicited considera ble discussion, without however nny ac tion being tuken upon it: Ruolved, That a committee of one from each Association represented iu this body, be appointed to iuquire into and report upon the practicability of consolidating und concentrating all tbe means pecuniary and literary, now employed and capable of being elicited within this State, at some eligible loention, which may address itself to tbe largest support aud intluence, with tbe view to build up and sustuiu one College or University, commensurate with the wants of the Georgia Baptists. The Amendod Dallas-Carendon Treaty iu England. Tbe London papers announce the ro ception by tho English government of the Dallas-Clarendon treaty, as amended by the United States Senate. The Liverpool Albion quotes what purports to be the amendments, and adds: Whatever decision Lord Plamerston may come to on this important treaty, our readers may rest sure of one thing, and that is, that if Lord Palmerston shall consent to submit to the degrading terms offered by tbe United States, the British public will know nothing of the matter until the treaty is signed and past recall. An Irish lady wrote to her lover, beg ging him to send her some money. She added, by way of postscript, “I am so ashamed of the request I have made in this letter, that I sent after the postman to get it back, but the servant could not overtake him.” Tbe Gold Weather and the Comet- Innumerable surmises have been made as to the cause of such unusual cold weather in April. Some attribute it to the approach of comets. Upon this sub ject a writer in tbe St. Louie Republican remarks: It is singular that the unprecedented cold weather which has prevailed over the whole country during the present month of April, should not have attracted tho attention of the press nnd the public to the probable cause. This is undoubtedly the presence and rapid approuch of the comet now visible in the evening sky, whose elements have been calculated by the most celebrated astronomers of Eu rope, and which it is predicted by certain highly respectable mathematicians of Ger many, will come in direct collision with the earth on the 10th of June, proximo. This opinion has been made light of by Pierce and other American astronomers, but whether probable or not, there is no questioning the fact, that the comet has entered the limits of the solar system, and is now approaching the earth with fearful rapidity, as may be seen by the most hasual observer, by noticing its daily increase iu size. There can be little doubt that the extra ordinary phenomena witnessed in tho weather during the month is attributable to this cause. Similar changes of the cli mate have been observed before, during the passage of comets near the earth. The cornet of 1760 is said to have brought with it a dense and unpleasant fog, which lasted for twenty-one days ; that of 1820 was accompanied by heavy rains and con sequent inundations; nud every one must remember the unusuully cold and severe weather prevalent at the time of tho ap pearance of the brilliant comet of March, 1843. The comet now approaching tho earth is that of Charles V., which first appeared in perehelion in 1204. It may be seen in a clear evening near II Sagit turi, and is evidently nearing the caitb with great rapidity. We aro much inclined to the belief that the comet above alluded to, has something to do with the weather, and we do not look for much improvement until it has passed its present influence on the sun’s rays. That its position is counteracting the force of the sun on the earth must be perceptible to all. The weather the last week of February was several degrees warmor than it has been since tho first day of March, which is about the timo this comet wus first observable. We do not look for settled warm weather before June. The Forsyth Treaty with Mexico. “Ion,” the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, in a letter on the 22d instant, says: As I have frequently and distinctly stated, tho treaty lately negotiated by Mr. Forsyth with Mexico, was repudiated both by the late and the present Adminis tration, nnd it will therefore bo somewhat surprising if the renewed negotiation should he committed to him. That he was instructed to obtain territory in con sideration of a previous indemnity, and a release from certain claims of American citizens, is certainly probable, though his instructions have not been published. Neither have the instructions, whether written or verbal, given to his predeces sor, Gen. Gadsden, been published; but we learn from Gen. Gadsden himself, through his published private letters, that he was authorized and instructed to ob tain a cession of territory. Both Gen. Gadsden and Mr. Forsyth found this to be impossible during the provisional dictatorship of Gen. Comon fort, for he was pledged against the alien ation of any territory without the assent of Congress. Mr. Forsyth’s views in pro posing a loan to the Mexican Government have not been explained to the public, if they have been to the Government; but the design imputed to him by intelligent Mexican politicians, whose views of the matter have been published in New York papers, was to give the United States a claim upon the Mexican Government which could only be paid by a cession of territory. Hut by no one has this covert design been imputed to tbe present or late Administration, though it seems to be assumed by the Intelligencer that some such “sharp practice” has been charged upon this Government in some quarter not indicated; but the prompt rejection of the treaty is no proof of it. Had Mr. Forsyth’s treaty provided for the cession to the United States of Sonora for a reasonable sum of raony, and Lower California, 1 have every reason to believe that it would have been ratified by the Senate. What instructions the Administration now propose to give to Mr. Forsyth or his successor cannot be known, and probably are not even determined upon. Meanwhile Sonora is to be given up to American fillibusterism, without the least prospect of very efficient obstruction from ibis Government. It is a country rich iu mineral resources, and tbe Californians look upon it and also Lower California ns a sort of appendage to their own State. Santa Anna frequently stated to Ameri cans who visiteil him that Sonara was much richer in gold than California. Whether it would not be more creditable to buy it than to steal it is worthy of public consideration. Wholesale Embezzlement. A New York exchange says, our whole sale embezzlements and frauds show no disposition to decrease in number. A new case now occurs in John Mcllveen, Cashier of the firm of S. Beck & Cos., exten sive dealers in dry goods, who was charg ed recently with having, during a series of years in which he has been in theirem ploy, embezzled money to the amount of upwards of $130,000. The firm failed some months ago, and wishing to ascer tain the cause, they instituted an investi gation of their books, nnd the discovery of the above enormous deficit in the cash account was made apparent. This account had been regularly bal anced, but the balances had been forged, and the difference between tbe true and the false balance had been embezzled. The cashier had enjoyed tho fullest confi dence of his employers, nud until the dis coveries recently made was uot suspected. It is stated that he has tnnde a confession to his employers in regard to the disposi tion made by him of the embezzled funds, and has already made over to them a bouse and lot on 4th Street, opposite Washington Square, which he purcbnod with their money. It is expected >, that considerable more property will l>o delivered up to them. He has given V r s in a heavy amount to appear when want ed to answer the charge against him. Somebody describing the absurd ap pearance of a man dancing the polka says : “He looks as though he had a hole in his pockot, and was trying to shake a i shilling down the leg of his trousers.” I Louisiana Intelligence. The Shreveport News, of the 14th inst., says: Tbe weather continues decidedly cool 1 for this season of the yeiir. On Saturday night last, between 8 aud 9 o’clock, snow wus seen to fall; Sunday morning there was ice, and on Monday morning we had a heavy frost. The fruit is entirely de stroyed, und even the young oaks and oth er small growth are completely withered from the effects of the late cold weather. Tbe Mount Lebanon (Bienville parish) Baptist, of the 16th, says: On the night of the 11th, a light snow fell for several hours, and next morning the tops of our houses were covered with sleet. On Monday morning, 13th, there was ice and a heavy frost. Our forests look sear nnd Bad. Many of the large ouk, ash, hickory and other trees look as if they never would bud again. The wheat crop is killed aud must be a total failure; and not a peach, plum, cherry or apple are we to expect from our orchards. Yesterdry morning, loth, there was considerable frost. The Xapoleonvillo (Assumption parish) Pioneer, of the 19th inst., says: We have had a second visit from frost and ice the past week, greatly to the det riment of the Cane and corn. The pros pects for n large crop of sugar, which were So promising, are for the moment blasted, and the great advantage gained by the forwardness of the cane is lost.— The seasou for the growth and maturi ty of this crop is a short one under the most favorable circumstances, and unless we are favored by the late appearance of frost in the fall, it cannot exceed 260,000 hhds. The Coachman who caught an Heiress. The New York correspondent of tho States writes: Mrs. John Dean, (late Miss Boker,) whose extraordinary escapade with her father’s coachman recently created such a sensation, is now staying at the residence of a friend of her family in the upper part of the city; her husband, you will remember, has gone to Columbia county “to receive an education,” having pledged himself to stay there a year without see ing his wife. Privilege of correspondence was accorded him in the arrangement, but it is understood that sho has not heard from him since their separation. Some friend probably has advised him not to write until he shall be able to send a letter which will not be likely to disgust her educated sensibilities by its literary inele gance. It is due to tbe lady to say that she is neither uuaniiable nor, usually, obstinate; and her extraordinary firm ness in this marriage affair is only to be accounted for by some strange influence •ver lier possessed by Dean. She is well educated—sensible, neither giddy nor ro mantic, ami well knows the difference between refinement and will not be surprising if, before she lias passed tlic allotted year away from Dean’s influence, she shall think of him with as much repugnance as she has heretofore exhibited of obstinate self-will. Camphor vs. Strychnine. The many cases of suicide and murder by means of strychnine which have oc curred rccntly in England, have caused considerable inquiry respecting the dead ly drug in question. A Mr. D. Wilson, M. R. C. S., E., writes to the London Times, that camphor is a certain and sov ereign antidote to strychnine. In his communication he says: Y'our impression of this day (February 18) records two more instances of life having been destroyed through the potent agency of strychnine The great importance of an effctunl an tidote being made universally known must be my excuse for begging a place in your columns for this brief communication. In vol. ii., p. 564, of the Lancet of 1848, Dr. Pidduck relates an interesting recove ry from poisoning by strychnine. The patient was a weakly man. afflicted with neuralgic pains, lor which a quarter of a grain of strychnine was taken by mistake instead of one sixteenth of a grain. Five grains of camphor were adminis tered in an emulsion, and almost immedi ately alter taking the dose the spasms ceased. Another successful recovery’ is report ed by Dr. Tewkesbury of Portland, Maine, viz : A boy was seized with convulsions after eating a biscuit containing one grain and a half, for the purpose of killing rats. Ihe spasms were so severe that immedi ate death seemed inevitable, though all the usual remedies were resorted to. Camphor could not be introduced into the stomach on account of the locked jaw. Strong injections, therefore, of camphor were used aud the body immersed in a camphor bath, and in a few hours the hoy was com paratively well. FOR APALACHICOLA. THUS steamer LAURA, McAllister r -.~.
