COLUMBUS: LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION. Saturday Morning, Sept. ‘4O, 1851. — ... —r—, There baa been no yellow lever yet in the New Orleans Charity Hospital. There was a fat al case last week in our City Hospital, says the Mobile Tribune of the 23d inst., but the disease was contracted in Havana, and tlie patient came hence in the steamer Quaker City. Hon. Junius Hillyer, of Georgia, it is ■aid, has been appointed Chief of one of the Bureaus in the Treusury Department at Washington, at a salary of S3OOO per an num, and it is understood he accepts the appointment A. M. Brady, of Woodford county, Ken tucky, recently sold one hundred two year old mules for $18,500 —or $lB5 each. They were said to be the largest and finest ever raised in the State, and were destined for the Southern market. ♦ .Ve gro Stealing. A man, bearing the name of George Nowell, who, we understand, has been for several months living in different parts of Russell County, Alabama, was arrested at Opelika on Wednesday, on the charge of negro stealing. Theoircumstanoes, ns we learned them, are as follows: On Wednesday last ho had in possession at Opelika, a negro fellow, from description, recognized as the property of JudgqaJohn Brown, of Russell County, who was at the time absent from home without the master’s leave. The negro, discovering his attempt to sell him, escaped from him, whereupon Nowell attempted to get dogs to overhaul him. This elicited in quiry as to who Nowell was, when he was recognized, and the public became satis fied he hud no claims to the negro, and was arrested. The case was investigated before Magistrates, and Nowell was com mitted for a further hearing at the ap proaching term of llio Circuit Court, to convene next week. The negro is still at largo. Nowell is a native of Ohio, and is be lieved to be one of an underground Rail Rond party. His intention was, no doubt, to sell the boy and steal him again, when they would have proceeded (being in funds) on their way to the land where nil bad negroes go. Tlic UupUsta In America. According to the American Baptist Al manac for 1858, the number of members of that Church in the United States is 888,718; in the British provinces2B,2l2; in the West Indies, 36,050. This is doubtless, however, only approximate, as from ninny associations no returns have been received since 1861. The Anti- Mission Baptists number 58,000; Free will Baptists, ‘10,800; Bix Principle 2,- 500; Seventh Day, 7250. Methodist Church, South. The general minutes of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, reports 23 con ferences, 2,171 travelling preachers, 163 tmperanuateil preachers, 4,000 local prea chers, 309,882 white members, and 00,770 on probation, 30,490 Indian members, and 290 on probation. The total minis ters nnd members is 045,708, which is an increase of 15,71(3. Seven of tbo confer ences report a decrease, sixteen an in crease. The number of ministers and members in the Methodist Church, North, is 806,204 ; adding to this the above we have the total, 1,853,912. Arrest of tire Murderer. The negro belonging to Messrs. Stewart & Horton, who killed a negro child and •everely wounded its mother with a scythe blade, on the night of the 22d, has been arrested, says the Montgomery Mail, and committed to jail by Mr. Horton. The murderer was found in a fodder-house, and was very unwilling to surrender.— Mr. 11., however, with a double-barrelled gun, finally intimidated him. Tbo cause of the act scorns to have been the refusal of the woman to take this fellow as her husband* lie struck at her with the scythe, and she—perhaps involuutarily—held up the child between hsrself nnd tho assassin, causing it to re ceive the fatal blow. Gold Discovery. Mr. Alex. Nix, of Auraria, says the Dahlonega, Ga. Signal of the 19th inst., found ft vein on lot No 16, 18 dist., north half of the Ist section, a few hays since, that bids fair to rival the celebrated Cal houn mine, or the boasted mines of Cali fornia. We learn that eighteen and a half gallon panful of the dirt and slate, encompassing the vein, made a yield of two hundred nnd sevents-eight penny weights of the precious metal. This proves what we have often said, that our country is equal to any mineral country in the world, and nil that is required to bring it out is energy aud perseverance. Tho Masonic order in the I’uitod States number three hundred thousundpersons, nnd includes a large portion of all the distinguished civil, military and profes sional men. The price asked for Mount Vernon and the tomb of Washington is $200,009. It lias been proposed in Vir ginia that the Free Masons make up the sum necessary to purchoae it, by the sub scription of a dollar or less from each in dividual. The Boßtou Traveller thinks that in view of what Mr. Everett has done, and will do, twenty-five cents from each member should answer every pur pose. The Talladega papers announce the death, on the 13th inst., of Leonidos Mc- Lanc, a young man of that town. He was a printer, and learned his trade in the Watchtowcr office. The Tulladega Re porter says : “lie was an estimable young man, df correct moral deportment; was quiet and unobtrusive in his manners, and gentlemanly in his bearing. He com manded the regard aud esteem of all who knew him, and his death will be lamented by a Urge cirols of warm and true friends. Change of the Constitution. It may not be generally recollected by our readers that at tho last Session of the Legislature of our State, there was a bill passed by both Houses, changing the Ses -1 sions of the Legislature from Biennial to I Annual. As this cannot be done but by | a change of the Constitution of the State, and there can be no change in that instru ment but by a two-thirds vote of two se parate Legislatures, that measure will, consequently, come up before the ensuing Legislature for ratification or rejection. Although the people are not required to I vote directly on this question, and it has not been agitated in the present canvass, it is due the people that they should know that this measure will be brought before the Legislature, that those feeling an interest in the subject may know what the opinions of those are who aspire to their suffrages. The Biennial system has been tried long enough to demonstrate that the ob ject intended by its adoption, to-wit: the lessening of the expenses of legislation, has not been attainod, but on the contra ry, it has increased the expenses, and has operated against tho best interests of the Commonwealth. In a State as large as Georgia, and with such vast and varied interests, question of public or private policy arise, which require early legisla* tion, which, under the present system, it will be impossible to obtain without acall ed Session of the Legislature, which could never be done but in cases of extreme emergency, and the consequence is, that both State and private interests suffer very greatly by tho delay. While the Annual system would correct this evil, it would not add anything to the cost of the legislation, for the Sessions would como so often there would not be necessity for so much legislation as there is under the present system. When the Legislature only meets every other year, the mem bers think that there has been such a long time since there was any legislation that they must needs spend some three or four months in looking after the inter est of tho State, when under the Annual system from forty to fifty days used to suffice for transacting business of the State, thus making a lurge saving to the State. Mount Vernon Fund* Virginia seems to bo slow in her con tributions to tho Mount Vernon fund.— Tho report for August shows a collection of only $97. Alabama sent within that month sllO4 ; Georgia $338 ; South Car olina SOOO. Altogether Charleston has contributed $2400. In July North Caro lina sent over S7OO. The Secretary of the Association, in her report for August, thus appeals to Virginia : Will the citizens of Virginia allow tho sister States to present to her the Domain of Washington, without a single effort for its possession, worthy the State which lias givon to the world those illustrious men whose names adorn the pages of her his tory ? Cannot the zeal, the patriotism, the un selfish devotion which they manifested in pledging “their lives, their fortunes, aud their sacred honors.” to the cause of lib erty, excite in the bosoms of their de scendants one generous impulse, call forth one tribute of gratitude, for placing the Old Dominion in its high and command ing position in this great Confederacy 1 It cannot bo that Virginia will longer remain insensible to the claims of the past upon the present. Will she not rise iu the dignity of her power, and from her garnered fields pour into the Mount Ver non treasury such an offering as will for ever secure to her keeping the resting place of her son, “the Father of his Country ?” -- ■ ♦ The Mobile Tribune’s Prize. Some time ago, it will be remembered, the editors of the Mobile Tribune offered a handsome silver service, worth S3OO, to tlie person who should make the best guess as to the amount of the cotton crop of 1866-7. On the 17th, the telegraph brought the footings of the New York Shipping List, showing the total crop to be 2,989,515 bales. There were seventy four estimates for the prize, ranging from 2,099,995 to 3,249,000 bale’s, the average being 2,900.210 —tlie difference between tlie highest and lowest estimate 529,005 bales. Mr. Wm. B. Hamilton, of the firm of Hamilton & Young, of Mobile, (says the Mercury, of that city,) made the near est estimate—2,939,6B7 bales—and, of course, takes the prize. His estimate was only 22 bales above the actual re ceipts. ——x Gift to Dr. Kane’a Dog. A beautiful silver collar will be form ally presented to Dr. Kane's dog, ‘Etah,’ which is attached to the exhibition at the Mclodeon, on Tuesday evening next, It is of massive silver, and upon its centre is inscribed, “Presented to Dr. Kane’s Dog, ‘Etah,’ by Wm, Morton’s many friends in Boston, Sept. 23, 1867.” At the right nnd left of this are the Masonic and Sous of Malta emblems raised in gold, and extending entirely around tho collar in bold relief ore representations of the Polar Bear, William Morton with sledge and dogs, on Esquimaux javelin, a native hut amid icebergs, aud brig Ad vance, and Etah himself. It was manu factured at a cost of SIOO. Even the heavy padlock is of solid silver.— Boston Advertiser. How much better it would have been to have expended that ono hundred dol lars in the purchase of the common nec essaries of life for the poor and starving population of Boston. But that is the way of snobdom They would rather contribute a hundred dollars to buy a ! collar for a distinguished man's dog than to givo one dollar to keep a poor fellow being from starving. Verily, they will have their reward. Large Bales of Public Lauda. Tho President is said to have signed proclamations for the sale of two and a half millions of acres of the public do main in California ; near four hundred and fifty thousand acres in Missouri, and the unlocated tracts in the Sioux half breed reservation on Lake Pipin, in the | territory of Minnesota. These sales, in California, will take place during the : month of May next, and in Missouri and | Minnesota in March next. TIfREE DAYS LATER FROM EffrOPK. ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA. Halifax, Sept. 23.—The British and North American mail steamship Canada, Captain W. J. C. Lung, has arrived, with Liverpool accounts to Saturday, the 12th September. Commercial. Liverpool, Sept. 12.—The cotton mar ket has advanced during the week Jd. to 8*16(1. on American, nnd from Jd. to on other kinds of cotton.

The quotations are, for Fair Orleans, 9Jd., Fair Mobile 9|d., Fair Upland Bjd., Middling Orleans 9sd., Middling Mobile 9 l-16d., Middling Uplands 9d. The stock in port is 306,000 bales, of which 240,000 are American. Manchester advices are favorable, and a slight improvement had been realized upon all qualities of goods. Breadstuff's were steady and provisions quiet, Liverpool, Saturday afternoon. —Cotton is steady, and prices buoyant; sales to-day 10,000 bales.

American stocks in London have not been much affected by the panic in New York. There is nothing later from India. Cyrus W. Field has responded to the false insinuations of injury to the tele graphic cable. He says tho cable is as perfect as when it was first put aboard the steam vessels. The Times estimates the amount of A merican securities in London at 800,000,- 000 sterling. Other news unimportant. New York Market. Nkw York, Sept. 22.—The cotton mar ket is firm, with sales of 300 bales. Flour. —Sales 9,000 barrels; State aud Ohio have declined five cents per barrel. Wheat.— Sales 42,000 bushels, market declining. White $1 50 and red $1 85. Corn.— Sales 25,000 bushels at declin ing prices. New York, Sept. 23.—The cotton mar ket is firm, with sales of 400 bales. Flour. —Market firm, with sales of 10,000 bairels; Stato improved five cents per barrel, but Southern unchanged. Wheat.— Sales 42,000 bushels, and the market unsettled. Corn. —Sales 35,000 bushels. Mixed 70 cents, and market buoyant. Boston, Sept. 20.—The firm of Farley, Norrison & Cos., hide and leather dealers, of this city, have failed. The money market closed with bright er prospects last week, and confidence in the future is strong. The bankers re solved to accommodate their customers to the best of their ability, and loans this week will undoubtedly show a material increase over previous weeks. The Hog Crop. The Macoupin, (Illinois,) Spectator, says that it is now certain that in all the Western country there will be extraor dinary large crops of corn raised. The consequence of the heavy yield of corn will be that hogs will be better fattened than usual. Tho farmers will commence feeding earlier, and will feed later than when the corn is not good, and will hence make their hogs weigh, when fattened, from 20 to 30 pounds each more than they did last year. The farmers will generally commence feeding hogs upon new corn early in September, and fat un til late in December. Again, the farm ers will fatten all their large hogs for market, on account of the prospect for good prices, and feed until late the small hogs for their own use. In the central counties of Illinois, we can safely affirm that there will be an in crease of 40 per cent, over any previous year. Already the farmers are beginning to feod their hogs with new corn for fatten ing. They are aware that corn will not be worth over 20 cents a bushel for ship ping, while, if they can get four or five dollars per hundred net for pork, that will be equal to forty or fifty cents per bushel for their corn, and hence they will—acting wisely, too—put all tho corn they can into pork. Fine Horses for the South. Mr. Beu. Robinson of this county star ted a few days since on his annual trip South with a lot of flue horses. They were nearly all pairs, and of the first quality and style of horses. We venture that not another lot like them will leave Kentucky this season for the Southern market.— Wo do not believe that in the whole South west they can be surpassed. Mr. R. is one of the best judges of a horse in this section, so deservedly distinguished for its connoisseurs iu that line, and he never buys any but the best that can be bad.— He is a fine trainer of horses also, and when a horse passes out of his hauds it is usually as near perfect iu style, gait and condition ns a horse gets to be. The highest praise will not do more than sim ple justice to the lot with which Mr. R. has just started.— Kentucky Whig. Female Equestrians. The highest prize (a gold watch worth $150) at the National Horse Show in Galesburg, Illinois, was awarded to Miss A. R. Adcock, of Henderson Grove, who appeared mounted on a small filly, w.th out a saddle. She proved hersell v. r'.by of every particle of applause gi-.. . her, with superior management of hi ~ir3e, and the care and grace with wl, i.i she rode. It having been supposed t.y the judges aud onlookers that she had a stir rup fastened to tho blanket on which she sat, she dismounted, and, amid repeated shouts of approbation, showed them that she had nothing to keep her on the horse's baok bat her own taot and talent. Steamship Disasters. The appalling loss of life on the Cen tral America has no parallel in the an nals of American steamship navigation. The nearest approach is the disaster which befell the steamship Arctic on tho 27th of Sept ember, 1854. by which some thing like 350 lives were lost. The steamship San Francisco, belonging to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, which foundered in (he Atlantic on tho 25th of December, 1853, was lost under circumstances similar in many respects to the .disaster which has just occurred; but the number of lives sacrificed was much less—not varying far from two hundred, including one hundred and fifty United States troops. Taking a retrospect, with a view to re count the various catastrophes which have befallen ocean steamships owned iu or trading with ihc United States, we find that the following have been entirely lost: Name. Fate. Valuation. President Never heard of $350,00(1 Columbia All hands saved 300,000 Humboldt All hands saved 500,000 City of Glasgow Never heard of 200,000 City of Philadelphia... All hands saved 800,000 Frankiin All hands saved 450,00 h San Francisco A few saved 800,000 Arctic A few saved 700,000 Pacific Never heard of 680,000 Tempest Never heard of 300,000 Centra) America A few saved 140,000 Total value of steamships $4,250,000 If the cargo was included, these figures would be more than doubled. The Presi dent was lost in the year 1841; no one knows how or where. Tlie Columbia, in nautical phrase, “broke her back” on the rocks on the American shore of the At lantic. The City of Philadelphia went to pieces on the rocks near Cape Raoe. The City of Glasgow sailed from Liverpool March 1, 1854, and was not afterwards heard of. The Great Britain came near being included in tlie list, having lain ashore for some months at Dundrum Bay, coast of Ireland, but is now engaged as a transport for India. The Franklin and Humboldt went ashore and broke in pieces—the former on Long Island and the latter near Halifax. The Arctic and Pacific were lost as already recorded. The iron steamer Tempest, measuring 1500 tons, sailed from New Y 7 ork Feb. 12, 1857, with a crew of from thirty-five to forty men, and was never heard from. On the Pacific, several fine steamers have been lost, generally of a smaller class. The Independence, for instance, was to tally lost, with 120 lives; and tlie Ten nessee, St. Louis, Yankee Blade, Winfield Scott, aud others, became total wrecks. English steamers in waters contiguous to the United States have fared little better. Within a short time we have had to record the loss of the fine iron steam ship Canadian, on the St. Lawrence; also the steamship Clyde, and several other steamers in the West India Islands. A calculation as to the number of lives lost in these steamers, makes a total of about 1,709. This loss being irrepara ble, no consolation can be derived from the fact that a large portion of it might have been prevented by a division of these ships into compartments by water tight bulkheads; but there is opportunity to make tlie adoption of such a means of safety compulsory upon the owners of all sea-going steamers, and thereby doing much to prevent the recurrence of catas trophes such as we too often have re corded of late.—-V. Y. Journal of Com. Attempt to Destroy a Mail Train. The Eastern mail train of Thursday morning Inst, which was due at this place at about 4b. 30m., did not arrive till a quarter to ten a m. The cause of the de lay was that some blood thirsty miscreant changed the latches on the road a short distance west of Stallings’ Depot, and thereby threw the train off the track.— As the same train approached Stallings’ it was met by some obstructions in the shape of logs of wood, which, however, were seen in time to prevent mischief.— The Western train, which left here at the usual time on that morning, also came upon a heavy light-wood log some dis tance west of Stallings', but received no injury. The train thrown off’ sustained no injury, neither did any of the passen gers. This diabolical attempt at whole sale murder was tlie work of one villain oa a gang of villains, whom a just pun ishment would cause to bo suspended from the rear cur of a fast train by the feet, while their hellish spirit was being sighed out upon tlu- road which they sought to make a scene of innocent blood. We hope the company will use their utmost endeavors to discover and bring to justice the rascal or rascals. —Raleigh Standard. Arizona. From a private letter to Lieu!. Mowry, a sad state of things is represented in the Gadsden Purchase. Since the unfortu nate expedition of Col. Orabbe into So nora, tlie inveterate hostility between the settlers of this district and the Mexicans lias been engendered. Like the Jews and Samaritans of yore—they have no dealings together. The Americans in the Territory are divided—some in favor of fillibustering, and others opposed to it; some in favor of murdering and robbing Mexicans wherever found, and others op posed to it. It results that they are in a state of anarchy. There is no Govern ment, no protection to life, property, or business, no law, and no self-respect or morality among the people. They are living iu a perfect state of nature, with out the restraining influence of civil or military law, or the amelioration of so ciety. Tlie Atlanlie Telegrupli Cable. The London Times, of Sept. 4tli, says : “It is reported that tlie Atlantic cable is not likely to prove available for either of the projected Indian lines of telegraph.— It appears that in its present coiled state it generates or absorbs a great amount of heat, and a fear is entertained of its be ing ruined by the temperature to which it would be subjected iu twice crossing the tropics. It lias been found that ex treme heat iu parts under pressure forces the copper wire to tlie sides of the gulta perclia, and destroys insulation.” The same paper remarks that “be tween conflicting schemes, there seems a probability that tlie Indian telegraph, which ought to be completed in six months, will either fail altogether, or be delayed until the greatest need for it is passed.” Health of Mobile. Never has the health of Mobile been better at this season of the year than it is at present, and seldom at any season. The whole number of deaths during the past week was nineteen, of which more than one third were young children and infants a few days old. Os the nineteen two or three were from chronic diseases of the lungs or bowels, one of cancer, two accidental, and one from suicide. There was one case ot yellow fever in the list, brought, as we have been informed, by the Quaker City from Havana a few days ago. and immediately carried to the Char ity Hospital, where death very soon en sued.—Mobile Register, Sept 225 -PS* Who lms not heard of Bn-rlinve’s Holland Hitter*! simple in its composition, pleasant to tlie taste, und truly wonderful in its effect, it - popu larity cannot !>o wondered at.
