COLUMBUS: LJIRBBT CITY CIRCULATION. Wednesday Morning, June !i, IHSS. See reading matter on every page. -■♦ . “ - The Ittver. From indications at the levee last even ing, says the Memphis Ragle & Enquirer of the -Util ult., it is more than probable that wo are yet to have a higher rise in the Mississippi than has heretofore been. Up to sundown, u rise of four inches had taken place. .Should it continue to rise in a like manner for the next forty-eight as it has for the past six hours, the dam age to plantations below will be almost incalculable. Fine Stalk of Cotton. Mr. Granville Gordon, conductor on the Opelika Hail Road, placed upon our tabic yesterilay a stalk of cotton from the plantation of Thomas Burton, Esq., three miles from Montgomery, Ala., which measured 21 inches in height, without the leaves. It hail several squat es upon it, and Mr. Gordon informs us it is an average of a crop of fOO acres. Who can beat it ? *. - - Weekly Line of American Strainers. The New York papers state that Mr. Vanderbilt has determined to run a week ly European lino of steamships at his sole expense and risk, between- New York, Southampton, Havre and ISremen. Ho now advertises the regular days of sailing of his fine steamers “Vanderbilt,” “North Star,” “Ariel” and “Northern Light,” and is rapidly driving to comple tion his magnificent now steamer “Quoen of the Ocean” to take a place in the same line. Thcso steamships will form u con nection between the old and now worlds which for safety, speed, comfort and economy, it is intended shall not he sur passed. *. A New Part)'. A Washington dispatch says that a movement is in progress contemplating the co-operation of all the opposition elements to the administration, in the “People’s Party of the Union.” The main features of the proposed organiza tion are said to be the ignoring of all questions calculated to produce sectional strife ; the protection of popular rights ; a judicious system of internal improve ments; a settled ami firm foreign policy ; the prevention of the immigration of criminals and paupers ; the protection of tho ballot-box, and an extended period of residence after naturalization ns a condi tion for tho cxereiso of the elective fran chise ; the fostering of American genius and art; every Territory rising into a State to have a constitution and laws framed by the citizens of the United States who aro permanent inhabitants therein, under such rules as Congress may proscribe—the object being a re cognition of the essential principles aud policy in which all opponents of the ad ministration may agree. All this looks very well on papor, and is calculated to take with those who have not cut their eyo-tecth, in a political sense. “The People’s Party of the Union” is but unother name for tho old Whig party, commingled with the Union party and tho Know Nothing party—a complete olla podrida —intended to catch all those who formerly belonged to either one of tho defunct parties, who have be come at all dissatisfied with Hie old Dem ocratic party. With some of tho princi ples of this embryo party, as hinted at above, no one can find any fault—they are principles professed and advocated by everybody in the country, of what ever party, hut some of them, though in most specious guise, arc entirely baneful to the principles of republican govern ment. Hut the whole thing is merely a ruse too palpable to receive serious con sideration, for with whatever prospects of success it might start out with, it would soon become denationalized, us all others have been, and tho Southern por tion would have one construction of the principles of the party and the Northern portion would have another. The fact is, all tho support that such a party could got from tho North, outside of the Democratic party, would not make a corporal’s guard, and it is unreasonable to suppose that the Democrats will quit an old atui long tried association, with which thoy have so often triumphed, to join a new-fangled concern tliut has not the prestigo of many a well and success fully fought battle to recomuieud it to public favor, but, on the contrary, has the seeds of decay planted in iis very composition. Hence, such a party can only be a sectional party at last, for though professing national principles, it will have only sectional strength, and will therefore be powerless to stay the tide of fanaticism, which will ho its os tensible object if ever formed. If it will have only a sectional strength, let it also have only a sectional object. If there must needs boa new party formed in op position to those now in cxistonce, let it plant itself on strong Southern ground, ignore those side issues, upon which there is such a contrariety of opinion, and honestly so, we hope, and unite upon some Southern ground, in defence of Southern rights and Southern honor ; and after taking its position, if it will remain true to its integrity, aud manifest no variableness or shadow of turning from tho position it assumes, whatever may be the aspect of tho political heavens, our word for it, it will sweep like an ava lanche over the entire South, and will have the credit of upholding its section against all opposition. Mr. L. A. Talbott, of Louisiana, ar- ! rived here yesterday morning with a requisition from Gov. Wicklitfe of that State upon the Governor of Tennessee, for the persons of Hendricks und Rut ledge, the parties concerned in the recent kidnapping case, as also that of the ne- j gro boy now in the city prison. Mr. Talbott left last evening on the cars for Nashville, to procure the necessary docu ments from Gov. liarris.— Metnphi* Ap peal, 29 (hull. Hancock County Academy Lottery. ‘ The Augusta papers, which came to I hand on Monday morning, contain over three columns of extracts from New York and Georgia papors, in relation to the in dictments obtained against Swan & Cos., for illegally conducting tho Hancock Academy Lottery, all tending to ridiculo the idea. That the readers of tho Sun may judge of the legal character of Ibis great demoralizing machine, wo append the charter: AN ACT to authorise the Trustees of Sparta Academy, in the county of Han cock, to raise by lottery the sum of live thousand dollars, for the benefit of said Academy. lie it enacted ley the Senate and 1/ouae of Repruentatives of tin State of (leoryui in (lenerat Ammbly met, and it ia hereby enart ed by the authority of the same, That the trustees of Sparta Academy, in the coun ty of Hancock, and their successors in office, bo, nnd they are hereby authorised to raise by lottery a sum not exceeding five thousand dollars, for the benefit of said Academy. Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That William Terrell, Robert W. Alston, Thomas S. Martin, Nathan C. Sayre. Thomas A. Smith, James H. Jones and Joel Crawford, Esquires, or a majority of them, be and they arc hereby appointed commissioners to superintend and con duct said lottery, and the said commis sioners are hereby authorised to divide said lottery into as many separate schemes of drawings as in their judgment shall best suit the interest of said Academy ; and any sum or sums of money which may bo raised by said commissioners under and by virtue of this act, after deducting the necessary expenses of said lottery, shall be by them paid over to the trus tees of said Academy, for tho use and benefit thereof. Assented to 2.’ld Dec., 1820. The charter, the reader will perceive, was granted in the year 1820, nearly thirty-two years ago. The charter says “tho trustees of Sparta Academy, in tho county of Hancock, and their successors in oflice, are authorized to ruiseby lottery a sum not exceeding live thousand dollars for the benefit of said Academy.” It then proceeds to appoint certain parties commissioners, to manage and conduct tho lottery, and nay over the net pro coeds to the trustees of the Sparta Acade my. Tho act makes no provision for the sale or transfer of the charter to other parties. The charter was evidently for some specific purpose—doubtless to assist in the erection of an Academy edifice, which at that time was not so easily ac complished by private contributions as at tlio present day. The lottery, as con templated by the charter, was never or ganized, aud as for the Sparta Academy which existed in 182(1, if it has any exist ence at present, it is, wo presume, only in tho recollection of the oldest inhabi tant of Sparta. From whom Messrs. Swan & Cos. do rived their right to act under the above charter, is immaterial; it is evident from the words of tho charter that no one had a transferable right in it, and therefore when they purchased no legal right in the charter was acquired. Wo regret that it was left for a citizen of New York to bring the illegality of the matter beforo our Governor and the Courts of our State. As for our part, we supposed the lottery legal and legitimate, and that Swan & Cos. bad acquired legal right to conduct it hy virtue of a provi sion authorizing tho trustees to dispose of the charter. Other citizens of our State, including high functionaries, were doubtless misled by the same confidence iu tho correctness of the conduct of tho trustees—who are usunlly the first men of a community. But since the matter has been ferreted out anil placed before the Courts, wo think it immaterial who did it, and trust the parties will be dealt with in such a manner ns not ouly to rid us of this great gambling shop, but strike terror to all others existing in our State. The blighting influence of this species of gambliug is ten fold more deleterious to tho morals of communities than any other species, because of the secrecy at tending it. So fascinating is tho prospect of gaiu presented that the professing Christian is frequently allured into its snares. Even the ladies, hy its allure ments, aro fast being converted into iuveterato gamblers. Indeed, several in stances have cento to our knowledge, of ladies risking their last dollar, when that dollar was the result of toil at the needle. Then what Geogian is not interested in removing these shops of iniquity, when it can be legally and peaceably done. Wo regret to see that Ihe Augusta press, and a portiou of the Savannah and Macon press, have attempted to sneer at what they seem to think an abortive at tempt to break down Swan & Co.’s lot tory, and brag that the arraignment be fore and the finding of tho Grand Jury, was uot thought of sufficient importance iu Augusta to be worthy of a passing no tice from the press of that city, lie it said to their shame, it looks too much like the entire press of Augusta were un der the control of Swan & Cos. Wo regret to see this rentissuess in tho press of our sister city. Horror* of the Afrirau Const. A letter iu the New York Times, front Port Pray a, announces the arrival there of the United States ship Utile, on the 11th of April, in 33 days from Monrovia, with eighty cases of fever ou board.— Lieut. T. Leo Walker died on the pas sage, and was buried at Port Vraya with appropriate honors ou the 12th. During the passage the Dale was short of provi sions. and the ouly two remaining officers (two Lieutenants having bceu dispatched to tho States in a prize) being alternately upon the sick list, the boatswain aud two seamen from before the mast, were oblig ! ed to do the duty of I.ieutenauts, as otti | eers of the deck, with scarcely a sufficient i number of men to work the ship. The j letter says : “If the deadly character of the African climate was properly known at the Navy Departnieut, it cannot be doubted that fifteen months would bo considered a sufficient cruise on the coast. There is no recreation for the mind, no l exercise for the body, nothing to eat, aud no where to go. No cities to visit; no civilization: no churches; no divine wor ship. Wo have not yet seeu the Message of the President, or the Navy Report.— To be kept in such a condition for two years will make a man a heathen.” Cotton Statement. The receipts of cotton in Charleston for the past week were, by Railroads 6,112 bales; by water and wagon 000 bales—together 6,712 bales—correspon ding week last year, 3,819 bales.) The exports from Charleston for the same time were, to foreign ports 9,713 bales; Coastwise 1,242 bales, making the total exports of the week 10,955 bales and loaving on band a stock of 40,777 bales inclusive of 10,447 bales on ship board not cleared, against a stock of 30,- 814 bales and 3,545 bales on shipboard same time last year. The sales in Charleston during the past week amounted to 0,463 bales, at prices ranging from 10jJ to 12|-. The quotations at the close of the week's op erations were merely nominal. The total receipts ut all the ports during the past week amount to 32,432 bales, against 18,621 bales received during tho same period last year. The otal receipts at all the ports since tho Ist of .Septem ber, amount to 2,895,669 bales, against 2,840,038 up to the same dates last year, showing an increase this year of 55,631 bales. The exports to Great Hritain up> to the latest dates, amount to 1,437,092 ; show ing an increase on the exports to that country last year of 165,915 bales. The shipments to Northern ports show a de crease of 247,182 bales from the ship ments of last year. The stock on baud and on shipboard at all the ports, up to the latest dates, amounts to 003,525 bales, being 202,684 bales more than the stock on hand at the corresponding dates last year.

This can is for preserving Fruits, Vegetables, etc., in a perfectly FRESH state. It requires no Wax, Solder or Cumeut, souls iustautly, aud is more easily sealed aud opened than any other Can ever in vented. All kinds of Wax and Cement are equally disagreeable aud worthless in sealing. In presenting this articlo to the public, the in ventor challenges tho World in an Infallible,Sim ple, Easy, and Rapid progress of Hormetical Scal ing. Parties interested in tho sale of Inferior Cans may try to depreciate this articlo by false state ments, but all scientific and practical men who have examined it say it is without a fault. It is warranted to keep all articles put lip ac cording to d.rection. Try it, and in all cases where a failure is the fault of tho Can, tho money will be refunded. Tho gasket is Pure Unadulterated Tasteless Gum, different from the offensive one used by otli ors. The Sealing is ou an entirely new plan—tho Gasket lays perfectly still, and cannot scringe or press out, as Pure Gum Gaskets would do any oth er Can. The openiug is large enough to admit a full sized peach. There is no Lead about it todeterior ato the contents : it is made entirely of Tin. This principle of Sealing has stood the tost for FOUR YEARS, and those who have tried them will use no other can. For sale iu Columbus, Ga., by R. M.
