COLUMBUS: IjAROHST CITY CIRCULATION. Kalurday Morning, June l‘J, IHSS. Sec reading matter on every page. Tremendous Slornu In Missouri. A dispatch from St. Joseph, Missouri, spys tliat that section of the country hud been visited by the severest rain-storms ever known. Tho l’latte, Grande and soveral other rivers had overflown their banks, doing immense damage to tho crops, bridges, etc. Tho worst conse quences were feared. The Mississippi at St. Louis. A dispatch, dated St. Louis, June 7th, says : The river lias risen two feet since Saturday night, and is still swelling. Tho cellars along the levee aie nearly full.— Some parts of the levee arc almost sub merged. The Upper Mississippi is rising rapidly,. Tho streets of Naples are flooded. The Missouri is rising rapidly. An additional rise of ten feet is expected here. - —• Election In New Orleans. The result of the election for Mayor of New Orleans hn- already been made known by the telegraph throughout the country. Gerard .Stith, the American candidate, was elected by 200 majority. The vole was very small—the Delta says not more than live thousaud. Scvorul thousands at least did not vote. No rioting occurred of any consequence; it being one of the most quiet elections that has been held for years. The difficulty has blown over, and comparative peace reigns throughout the city. A Strong I list Hut Inn. The editor of the Montgomery Mail chronicles the almost incredible fact that a photographist tis that city, a few days since, actually took a likeness ol him without material damage to tho “mer sheon.” If it can stand such a strain as that it will do to travel. Bring it over to Columbus, Mr. Artist, wo have a good looking colemporary, whoso likeness would be a fortune to any urtist who had a “mersheen” strong enough to take it. —■ ■ ♦ IMet horn of Specie. The New York correspondent of the (Tiarlcstou Courier, writing on the lid inst., says : “Not only does gold continue to be piled up in the banks here, hut sil ver seems to be a drug. Some of them bold it in such quantities that they insist upun paying it out on all occasions. It gives so much more trouble in keeping the accounts, that all the hanks tiro try ing to run down tin ir amounts. Ouo of the city banks refused to pay gold for its own bills, when it was required for cus tom bouse use, proffering silver, which wns declined.” . * l’lie Tennessee Delulrntlon. The Nashville llanuer, from informa tion derived from the investigations be fore the Legislative Uommittco of Inqui ry, reports the amount of defalcation in the office of Secretary of Slate of Tennes see at §115,211.01. Os this amount, §713 were roceived by the late Secretary, F. W. N. Burton, in bis official character as Secretary, and will bo chargeable to bis sureties. The main deficiency is in amounts collected from Turnpike and Hail Rond dividends, which F. W. N. Bur ton collected ns commissioner under a special nut of the Legislature. This act required tho Governor to exact and ro ceivo security, but bis duty, it appears, has been neglected or overlooked by Gov. Andrew Johnson. Souq, of the papers are down upou his ex-Excelleucy for this flagrant dereliction of duty, and seem to think that it was either inten tional, or that he was so taken up with national polities that he had no time to devote to the duties of his office. Tlte Dog Wur in Montgomery. We learn from tho Montgomery papers that tho authorities of that city repudiate tho doctrine that it is the right, of “dogs to bark and bite,” because “it is their nature,” and they have declared an in discriminate war upon dogs which shall dare to perambulate the streets without a badge or collar. As the dogs generally have disregarded this edict of the city fathers, and in defiance of the law con tinue to go where they list, a most mer ciless war has been waged against them, and many a dog of high degree, as well as mongrel whelps, have been made to bite tho dust. “lint it is no matter Let Hercules himself lo what he tuny, Tho cut will mow, tho dog will have hi* day.** The Mail, however, tells some pretty hard stories about the dogs of tlmt ilk. Hero is one of them: This morning a bushy tailed lice, hear ing the voice of Toni Reid round the corner of I'ourt street, laid down and feigned death so naturally that the officer told the corporation cartman to “throw the corpse in,” and then passed on. As soon as the gun disappeared Trip u| rose and ran for homo at a two-forty lick.— Tho dogs of this town are a talented set. -♦ Continued Decline 111 Trade. Tho statistics of the Custom House speak well for the progress of retrench ment and reform. Our people have adopted the only mode that can bring them out of their present troubles, re duced expenses, and they have ouly to continue the system to placo the country ou the high road to prosperity. We take the following statement from tho New York Herald: The importation of foreign goods con tinues to decline. During tho month of May just ended, the total importations at this port were only eleven millions and a half, against eighteen and three quarters during May, lt<s7, and eighteen uud a half during May, ’SO. The imports for tbo year, thu9 far, compare as follows with the two last years : Importation of foreign g*Kds. Jnclodiuft specie. for Jan. to Way (luclusier), ls6t'r $00,340,268 Do. do., 1W 105,MX),.W1l Do. do., IMS 61,668,102 In other words, we have taken less than half as much foreign merchandise this year as last. Our exports compare as follows: Exports for Jan. to May, lsr.fl $42,366,919 Do. do. 1857 46,460,841 Do. do. 1868 36,516,465 The Kufaula Native. This paper seems to bo considerably troubled as to our political opinions, and is at a loss to know whethor we are neu tral, independent or Democratic. If the editor has read our paper with that de gree of attention that ha should, he is extremely unfortunate in not having been able to locate us long ere this. But as he j appears to have been so blinded by his political prejudices as either to have mis understood us, or not understood us at : all, we will endeavor to enlighten him.— In plain terms we will say to him, thou, we aro not neutral, nevor were, never ex pect to bet never wish to be, and couldn’t bo if we wished. There is nothing non- ‘ tral inour composition, politically, moral- ! ly or socially. What we see to condemn in men or measures, wo condemu—what wo seo to approve wo approve—and our course is not governed by the considera tion of how it will affect this party or that—this measure or that. Wo aro not Democratic, for the Democracy of the present day is not such os it was when it was our dolight and boast to belong to tliat party, ond to advocate its principles. : It has wandered far from its ancient land marks, and is now almost us corrupt as the Whig, Union and Know Nothing par ties were in their day. We now have no feeling in common with the great National ! Democratic party, notwithstanding wo believe it to be tho only national party that now lias the least show of conserva tism. As we are neither neutral, nor Democratic, nor Know Nothing, nor Whig, nor Unionist, wo cannot but bo indepen dent. Will this plain and categorical answer ease the pain of our cotemporary as to our position ‘! We will not stop to discuss the princi ples as set forth by this new party, as we believe it will never have an existence anywhere but upon tbo paper upon which the original draft was made, and hence it would boa waste of ammunition to turn loose our buttery upon it. When it obtains a proportion, if it ever should, that will demand that it should be treated as a party, then wo may condescend to occasionally give it a running fire, with out it should prove to be more puro than tho antecedents of its progenitors loads us to infer it will. Wo will candidly say to the Native, however, that it smells strong enough of the defunct carcasses of the old Whig, Know Nothing and Union parties, to make it a perfect stench in our nostrils. Query—ls it is to partake of tho principles of these parties, why not name it after one of them ? Tho ruse is too plain. The “People’s Party of tho Union” is only a gilded bait to catch gudgeons. Will it do it? We shall see. Murder nt Holly Springs. A correspondent, writing to the Mem phis Eagle and Enquirer, from Holly Springs, Mississippi, gives the particu lars of a most cowardly and brutal mur der, perpetrated at the latter place on the 4th inst., upon tho body of a young man by tbo name of M. B. Moriu, by B. J. Malone and his son Robert Malone.— It appears that a slander had been cireu culatod, in which Moriu and a niece of Malone’s wife were connected, and that Moriu had determined to punish tho author, and for that purpose had called upou Malone to act as his friend, and was invited around to tho drug store of young Malone, where the elder Malono manifested a disposition to quarrel with him, when tho older Malono caught him by the hands and the younger Malone soiled a bar of iron nud struck Moriu on the back of the head, and then seized one of his pistols and commenced tiring, when Morin retreated, but the first ball took effect, which brought him to tho ground, hut ho rose aud made his way to his tavern, where he died in a few mo ments, having boon shot three times.— Mis dying statement was that be had been foully betrayed and treacherously murdered. The murderers were arrested on the warrant of tho Coroner, and upon trial before Mayor Polk and Esquire Goodrich a continuance was granted till tho follow ing Friday. More lMtticultlrx with Kurland. Tho National Intelligencer of Monday, under tho head of “rumors,” says: We are likely to have a question with the British Government as to our North western boundary liue, which is about to be ruuaud marked by the Joint Boundary Commission. Mr. Archibald Campbell is the American Commissioner, and has taken passage for California. He was employed there the last year upon tho duty, and now returns to it. The ques tion which has arisen is as to the title to the important group of islands in or near tho Straits of Fuea, and between Van couver's Island aud the main land and south of the parallel of forty-nine. By the treaty the 4'Jth parallel is our north ern boundary till it strikes Vancouver’s lslnml, but then it turns south, giviug the whole of that island to Euglnnd. The British Government set up a claim to small islands ns appurtenances to tho larger ones, while ou our sido wo claim everything south of 4’.’ except Vancou ver’s Island. When the Oregon treaty was before the Senate for Mr. Benton made some statements us to the importance of theso small islands as a key to the Straits nud Gulf, and claimed them as belonging to tbo United States under the treaty. Tlir Atlantic Telegraph. A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun, dated Monday, at Washington, says: Recent developments have been made in reference to the Atlantic telegraph en terprise, whereby it has transpired that the company has changed its charter and virtually handed tho line over to the con trol of the British Government. This has caused the judiciary committee in t'ongress to frame a bill reonmmending that inasmuch as theso movements have been perfected without the sauction of the United States, and since the appro priation of $70,000 per annum by this Government, they are therefore unjust to the United States as a partner to the en terprise. Tho committee recommends that the appropriation be withdrawn and the partnership dissolved. A Mrs. Cain, of Leavenworth, Kansas, hung herself the morning after her mar riage. BY TELEGRAPH AND MAIL- Telegraphed to the Augusta press. Additional by tlte Asia. Nkw York, June 10.—The English i ; Parliament had re-assembled. The correspondent of the London Times writes despondingly about tbe prospects of tbo India war. Ho considers that the revolt has taken deeper root than is gen erally believed. The news from China is up to tho 15tli April. Diplomacy had taken an unfavo rable turn. Tbe Emperor bad proposed to discuss the question at Canton, but the foreign plenipotentiaries had refused, and will proceed st once to Funstau. All was quiet at Canton.

Washington, Juno 10. — It has been satisfactorily ascertained tliat no new in structions have been issued by tbe British government to ships of war relative to searching vessels. Congressional. Washington. June 10. — The House lo day struck out of the Senate’s amend ment to the army bill the sum of one million two hundred thousand dollars, for fortifications. Tho subject of ocean mails was discussed. Iu the Senate, the Indian deficiency bill was passed ; and the post office bill was passed with amendments raising let ter postage to five cents —abolishing the franking privilege, compelling prepay ment in all cases—and offering the print ing of tho departments, and post office advertising, to the lowest bidder. Favorable Advices from Utah. Washington, June 10. — The govern ment lias received official advices from Utah, which confirm the report that Gov. Cumming has been well received at Salt Lake by Brigham Young, who has for mally transferred the Governorship, and enjoined upon his followers to recognize Gov. Cumming as the Executive of Utah. Brigham Young and other leading Mor mons intend going to Sonora. [From the Historical Magazine for Juue.] A Revolutionary Incident. Colonel John White, of the Georgia Line.— One of the most remarkable feats was performed by this brave officer, that occurred during the whole period of the Revolutionary war. It is related on the authority of Dr. Ramsay, in his History of the Revolution in South Carolina, Col. Lee, in his Memoir of the War in the Southern Department, Major McCall, iu his History of Georgia, and by Major Garden, in his Revolutionary Anecdotes, that while the allied army was engaged before Savannah, and while the seige was pending, Col. White conceived and executed an extraordinary enterprise.— Captain French, with one hundred and oleven British regulars, had taken post ou the Ogechee River about twenty-five miles from Savannah. At the same place lay five British vessels, of which four were armed, the largest mounting four teen guns, and the smallest four. Col. White, having with him only Cap tains George Melvin, A. C. G. Elholm, a sergeant aud three men, on the night of the Ist October, 1779, approached the encampment of French, and kindlod many fires, the illumination of which was dis ceruablo at the British station, exhibiting, by tbe manner of ranging them, tbe plan of a camp. To this stratagem he added another; lie aud his comrades, imitating the manner of the staff, rodo with haste in various directions, giving orders in a loud voice. French became satisfied that a large body ol’ the enemy wore upon him, aud on being summoned by White, lie surrendered his detachment, the crews of the five vessels, forty in number, and one hundred and thirty stand of arms.— Col. Whito having succeeded, pretended that he must keep back his troops, lest their animosity should break out, aud indiscriminate slaughter take placo in defiance of his authority, and that, there fore, lie would commit them to three guides, who would conduct them safely to good quarters. Tho deception was carried on with so much address, that the whole of the British prisoners were safely conducted by three of the captors for twenty-five miles through tho country to the Ameri can post at Sunbury. Tho affair, notwithstanding tho high authority above quoted, bears so much the appearance of romance, and approach es so near tho marvellous, as to be doubt ed by many to the present day. The writer has in his possession an original document, which fully sustains the facts so far as relates to the capture of the vessels. It is in the hand-writing of Major William Jackson, who was tho Secretary of tho Federal Convention of 1787, aud of which tho following is an exact copy : “Chas. Town, April 14, 1780. “Gentlemen: l’lease to pay to Jacob Read, Esq., Proctor in tbe cause of tbe captors, and claimants for the vessels taken iu Ogechee River by Col. White, twenty-five hundred dollars, being his fees iu said cause, for which 1 will be Accountable. 1 aui, gentlemen, “Your most ob’t serv’t, “W. Jackson, “one of tho Agents of the Army. “To Messrs. Cotcock & Gibbons, “Yeudue Masters.” Tbe order is endorsed in the band writing of Gen. Read, who was a United States Senator from South Carolina. Col. White, an Englishman by birth, of Irish parentage, was a surgeon in the British navy. While on a visit to Bnr badoes, ho married a lady, a native of London, to which place he soon returned; and having acquired a fortune by bis profession, be left the navy and embnrked for America, and settled in Philadelphia, determined to make it his future resi deuce. Wfcenthe Revolution commenced he took the oath of allegiance, and en tered tho army us Captain, and was soon promoted to the rank of Colonel—his i regiment (the 4th Georgia battalion) be ing ordered to tbe Soutb. He was severely wounded in tbe assault at Spring Hill redoubt on the 9th October, 1779, (where Pulaski fell,) and only nine days after the capture of French. Ho succeeded iu niukiug his escape fr m the British with Col. Elbert and other—but his wound had so much impair and bis health that he was obliged to retit •• nmo tbe army: and died soon after* >ls in Virginia from a pulujonary attack pro duced by fatigue and exposure.

It requires no Wax, Solder or Cement, seals instantly, and is more eusily settled and opened than any other Can ever invented. All kinds of Wax and Cement are equally disagreeable and worthless in sealing. In presenting this article to the public, tho in ventor challenges the World in an Infallible, Sim ple, Easy, and Rapid progress of Hennetical Seal ing. Parties interested iu the sale of Inferior Cans may try to depreciate this article by false state ments, but all scientific and practical men who havo examined it say it is without a fault. It is warranted to keep all articles put up ac cording to d.l ection. Try it, uud iu all cases where a failure is tin* fault of the Can, the money will be refunded. The gasket is Pure Unadulterated Tasteless (him, different from the offensive ouo u.* cd by oth era. The Sealing is on an entirely new plan—the Gasket lays perfectly still, and cannot scringe or press out, as Pure Gum Gaskets would do any oth er Can. The opening is large enough to admit a full sized peach. There is no Lead about it to deterior ate tho contents; it is made entirely of Tin. This principle of Sealing has stood tho test for FOUR YKARS, aud those who have tried them will use no other can. For sale in Columbus, Ga., by It. M. ALD WORT 11, June 2-ts Agent for the Patentees.

Your Oil acts like magic, exceeds everything I ever heard of in my life.” Better Still—sloo Accepted!—lleury Wriglit, Esq., of New Orleans, writes thus: “Prof. De Grath, Philadelphia: “Enclosed pleaso find SIOO as by agreement with you two weeks since, that if your ‘Electric Oil’ did not cure my ugly rheuma tism, you would give me SSO, and if I was cured I said I would give you SIOO. I had no idea of its wonderful effects.
