Progress of Mobile.
The growth of the business of Mobile
is strikingly illustrated by the following
fact, which we find in the Mobile Tri
bune:
Mobile now ships annually six hun
dred thousand bales of cotton. The mer
chant who made the first shipment of
cotton from that port is now living and
engaged in business. The first vessel
loaded with cottou he had to send to New
Orleans to get four hundred bales to fill
up. t
Tbe Cuuard Line,
A correspondent of tbe N. Y. Journal
of Commerce says:
It is asserted, and no doubt with truth,
that the stock of the Cunard line of ves
sels is over two hundred per cent, premium.
Very little of it is ever sold. A gentle
man of Glasgow last summer offered £3OOO
for a share of £IOOO, but could not get it.
With their first five ships they have built
all their additional eight or nine ships,
with the common earnings, without any
assessment for additional capital.
Stop tbe Villain 1
On the night of the 27tli of December,
1857, a villain by the name of Sebron
Bradford, committed a rape upon a little
girl eleven years old, living with her pa
rents seven miles south of Philadelphia,
on the Hillsboro road. The villain took
the girl to his home under the pretense
of having her stay with his wife while he
left home, knowing his wife h*d gone to
a to stay that night. After
getting the poor girl into his own house,
he committed the heinous crime.
The said Bradford’s mother resides iu
Chambers county, Alabama, and it is
supposed that he will attempt to go in
that direction. A large reward will be
given for his detention in jail, so that he
may be brought to this county and re
ceive his just punishment. Every person
should be on the look-out 1 The last Cir
cuit Court of Scott county found two true
bills against this same scoundrel for
stealing.
Description— Sebron Bradford is about
23 years old, 5 feet 8 inches high, stoop
shouldered, dish-faced, has a scar on one
cheek, freckle-faced, a mean countenance,
sandy hair, dirty grey eyes, and weighs
about ICO pounds.
Any information in relation to his
whereabouts addressed to the Post Mas
tor at Philadelphia, Neshoba county,
Mississippi, will be thankfully received
by every citizen of our county.
Every newspaper throughout the South
would confer a lasting favor by publish
ing this awful affair, so that he may not
escape justice.— Bulletin.
Our Difficulties with Paraguay.
On the 9th inst., iu the Senate, a joint
resolution was introduced to take meas
ures to enforce a settlement of the differ
ences with this government and Paraguay.
The difficulties between this government
and Paraguay were referred to in Presi
dent Buchanan’s message at the opening
of Congress. The President of Para
guay refused to ratify the treaty between
tho United States and that State, as
amended by the Senate. In 1853 all. S.
steamer, the Water Witch, was detailed
to ascertain the fitness of the river La
Plata and its tributaries for navigation
by steam. This enterprise was success
fully prosecuted until February, 1855,
when in the peaceful prosecution of her
voyage up the Parana river, the steamer
was fired upon by a Paraguayan fort.
The pretext for firing upon the Water
Witch was the then existence of a decree
issued by the President of Parag >y, in
October 1854, prohibiting foreign vessels
of war from navigating the rivers of that
State. But the Water Witch was not a
vessel of war, but a steamer engaged in a
scientific enterprise, intended for the ad
vantage of commercial States generally.
Among other causes of eomplaint against
Paraguay, citizens of the United States
engaged in business in that country have
had their property taken from them and
their persons treated in an insulting and
arbitrary manner. Hence, the object of
the joint resolution above referred to.
Hon. Edward Everett’s oration upon
the character of Washington coutains a
most beautiful figure, introduced in the
course of a defence of the great man
against the charge that he lacked genius.
Remarking that symmetry inconsistent
with the great predominance of any sin
gle attribute, always marks the higher
form of creation, he says: “You might
as well complain of the circle that it has
no angles or salient points, forgetting
that its wonderful perfection consists iu
the unbroken curve, every part of which
is cqui-distaut from the centre.”
Dangers of the Red Petticoat.
Three ladies were last week walking on
the Newmarket road, two of them exhibit
ing tho favorite under garment of the day,
when the ire of a passing bulloch was
excited by the glaring color, and he made
a dash at the party. The offending ladies
succeeded in evading him, bnt their com
panion, though in a more sombre garb,
was lifted upon a gate by the beast, but
sustained no injury beyond the fright.—
