OO L U MBITS: lukuumt city circulation. Friday Morning, July 10, IHSN. See reading matter on every page. South Wntcru Kali ltoad. We learn from the Savannah Republi can, that the Branoh front thin road lead ing to Dawson, in Terrell county, has been completed. The road was opened for business on the 7th inst., and on the 22d, the people of Dawson and vicinity, ‘ will give a Barbecue, in honor of the nd vent of the Iron Horse. The High Water at the West. A dispatch from St. Louis dated the 10th iuelant, says that, the river at that city is falling at the rate of one inch an hour, and that all the upper streams are receding. Much of the country that lias been inundated is now high and dry, but much of the most fertile portion of the valley of the Mississippi has been una- I vailablc for cultivation the present season, by reason of the overflow. liaising the Sunken Ships. Letters have been received in this city, says the Boston Transcript, from Kebns topol, dated May 24th, which report the work of raising the sunken Russian fleet progresses rapidly, and witli remarkable success. A sixteen-gun vessel of wi r, with over two hundred tons of mud in her, had been raised whole, witli all her j rigging and contents, and has since been \ repaired. Only one-fifth of the power of the cnssotis was exerted, and there is no doubt tlint the whole of tho sunken fleet can bo raised. The company engaged in the work is tho Marine Exploring Com pany of Philadelphia. Self Poaiculon. A correspondent of I lie Lynchburg Virginian, writing from New Market, 1 Jefferson county, Tenn., gives tho sub joined item: A lady near this place was bitten tiie other day by a rattlesnake, after which she undone her apron string urnl tied it over the bite. She killed the snake, cut off n piece and applied it to tho wound, mid drank a quart of whisky. At last accounts she was doing well. This was some spunk. We should say it was. In these times, when whisky lias so much strychnine in it, we beiicve we would rather risk the snako bito than the quart of whisky. The Franking Privilege. The Mississippinn publishes some sta tistics showing who used the franking privilege in the last United States Senate. Members from the slave States used 120,- 860 franking envelopes, and members from the free States used 081,780. Doug las, of Illinois, used 198,000; Bright, of indiaua, 100,000, and Seward, of New York, 08,000. Hunter, of Virginia, used 2,900; Mason, 2,700; Brown, of Missis sippi, 10,000; Green, of Missouri, 1-4,- 000; Reid, of North Carolina, 200, and Biggs, of the same State, only 100. Thus it always is. The South pays tho piper, and the North does all the danc ing, or, in other words, the South pays by far more than her proportion of the expensos of the Government, and the North gets largely more than her propor tionable share of the benefits of it. Important Derision. We learn from our New York exchanges that Judge Ingraham, of tho New York Supreme Court, has decided, iu tho case of the British Commercial Life Insurance Company and the Commissioner of Texas, that the moneys of a foreign corporation are subject to tuxntiou, but that United States stock is not. The ground of the decision is that if States can lax United States stock, such taxation will interfere with the powers of llio General Govern ment and impede or obstruct it in the exercise of (lie powers and the adoption of those measures which are necessary for its government. The right to tax the stock to any extent, must operate upon the power to borrow, and have a sensible influence on the contract. The tax on Government stuck, it is said, is a tax on the power to borrow money on the credit of the United States, and eonse quenily is repugnant to the Constitution. — lteinurknble Case. Some few days since, while tho servants of a Mr. Hobson, of Goochland, were en gaged iu harvesting, eleven of them were suddenly seized with convulsions, and despite the skill of throe physicians, who were immediately called iu. a valuable man died, and the other sufferers barely escaped with their lives. All the ser vants were in perfect health until anew barrel of whiskey was opened, and they were allowed to take each one drink therefrom. The symptoms were of such au alarming and violent character that their illness is believed to have been pro duced by the whiskey, which is generally believed to have contained a large quan tity of strychnine. The Richmond Dis patch understands the liquor is to he una iyzed by a competent chemist, when its poisonous properties, if it possess any, will be ascertained. If it should, the discovery will prove a “dead shot” to whisky hereafter; for the words of the tong, “there’s death in the cup” will he verified.— Petersburg (Fit) Express. Whisky drinkers hereabouts had better keep a sharp look out for the poisoned whisky, as some of it might find its way here. The sater plan, therefore, will be not to drink any whisky at all, and then there will be no danger of being poisoned by it. Texas Items. The Indinnola Courier announces that the SIOO,OOO of stock, necessary to be taken in order to au organization of the Indianola Hail Road Company, has all been subscribed, and the required 5 per cent, paid in. The Houston Telegraph, of Gie fith, announces the receipt of au open cotton boll from the plantation of Col. Groce, of Austin county. The Gonzalez Inquirer, of tho 3d fust., says :—The Rev. A. Davidson, living on the opposite side of the river, has about one hundred acres of the Charleston va riety of Sea Island cotton that is doing as well as the short staple. It was planted about the Ist of May, and is already half thigh high, aud beginning to bloom. It is the same variety that brought 46 cents per pound two years ago. His present prospects for a heavy yield are highly encouraging. Forelgyi Count* ahd Impostors. There has been, ever since we can recollect, a mania for foreign Counts, Marquises, kc., and many have been tbn instances in which confiding girls nnd am bitious mammas have been most shame fully deluded by the most consummate scoundrels and impostors. A fancy bar her, a flash coachman, or un impudent ( arid insinuating lackey, can come over to j America and by practicing bis arts and , putting on foreign airs, and boasting j largely of his landed estates arid heredi tary titles, can captivate the heart ol ul most any simpering and sentimental damsel, and she will either consummate ! her folly by eloping witli the pretentious foreigner, or she will wheedle her equally foolish and duped parents into a consent j into her union. This is an increasing j | evil in our country, nnd some means j should be taken to suppress it. The edi- j tor of tho Washington States in speaking upon this subject, and especially in ref ; crcnce to the recent difficulty between j Corcoran, the millionaire banker, and the j big whiskered young Spaniard, very just ; ly and sensibly remarks: “W’e regret that such things should find their way into the public press ; tint until some of these foreign •popinjays’ can feel the ‘stirig of wounded honor’ by the application of a good stout cow hide nt the hands of outraged fathers, instead of being courted nnd toadied by them iu the first instance, such scandal as is now being circulated through the country iu connection with the domestic I troubles of two wealthy and respectable I families will continue to exist. When I the society of such adventurers as De Wiihorst, Capt. De Riviere, and others of the same sort—people that speak broken English nnd have a foreign title, real or fictitious—is courted, and the most lavi“h hospitality extended to win their pres ence, in preference to that of talented and upright young fellow-countrymen, we cannot expect anything better.” - 1 ♦ ‘ .Imlge CninplM'U nt Montgomery. The Confederation of yesterday con tains the correspondence between a por tion of tho citizens of Montgomery and Judge John A. Campbell, of the United States Supreme Court, in reference to tho tender of a public dinner by the former to the latter The list of siguers is not overwhelmingly alarming as to numbers or talent, and among all the names, we notice, so far as our knowledge of the men extends, only those of the Fitzpat rick, or submission wing of the Democ racy. Os course this was expected of them, and if Judge Campbell can derive any comfort or consolation from their demonstration lie is as easily to be flat tered as a vain miss of sixteen. It will not do, however. Judge Campbell is po litically dead at tiie South, and it is well that his present office is not dependent upon tiie will of the people, or lie would be ousted from it on tiie very first oppor tunity. Verily, politics makes strange bed-fellows. A few months ago Judge Campbell was considered the very em bodiment of Southern rights in Alabama, and some of tlio-e who now laud him to the skies then thought him but little bet ter than a traitor to his country. Wo be lieve now they only love the treason of his recent course in regard to Walker, while they utterly hate and contemn the traitor. .In tiffin mis of tiie Supreme Court Silt luff at Macon for tur Second District. David Strauss and Jacob Strauss, plain tiffs in error, vs. Waldo Burry & Cos., de fendants in error.—Reversed on tiie ground that the Court erred in ordering the second plea of tiie defendant Jacob Strauss, stricken—denying upon oath that he was a partner of the firm of David Strauss, when tiie notes sued on were giveu.

Jesse L. Long, guardian, as plnnlifl’ iu error, vs. Robert Bowman, defendant in error. Reversed and anew trial granted, it being the opinion of the Court thut under the codicil the guardian is entitled to recover the corpus and the rents and profits of the property bequeathed to tiie ward, and not the trustee for tiie ward.

Suit to re cover balance salary of the term in which he was removed from tiie time of removal to end of term Reversed on the ground that the Court below erred, iu rejecting the evidence of Victor Menard —it being | the opinion of tiie Court here that the defendant in the Court below may prove, in defense, any matter not embracing that for which tiie record shows tlint the pliantiff’s intestate was removed from office, which would liavo warranted his removal from office at tiie time ho was re moved.

The following interesting letter, des criptive of his journey from New Mexico to Camp Scott, lias been received nttlie War Department from Capt. Marcy : Casio Scott, Utah, June 10, ’SB. Majob—ln comformity with tho ilirtc- | tious of the General commanding, I have the honor to submit tiie following memo randum of that portion of the route I tra veled on my return from Mexico, lying , between the crossing of the North Fork of \ tho I’latto and Green rivers. This route strikes the Platte upon tho Cherokee trail, 1 about two miles about Bryan’s Crossing, and is decidedly preferable, for the rea son that tiie bluff's upon the East side are much lower, and the approach much more shallow at the Cherokee Crossing. It was, when 1 passed, about seventy yards wide and four feet deep—was rising, and 1 dare say it is now above a fording stage. We left a flat boat upon the high bank on the West side, which lias sufficient capa city to carry the largest wagon, with its load. Good grass and wood are abundant here. From Hie Platte the road passes over a rolling country, without grass, un til it strikes a branch of Sage Creek (12 j miles,) where there is a limited supply, j Sage is found everywhere along the road, \ and constitutes the only fuel between the Platte and Green rivers. Camping places may be found upon all the three branches j of Sage Creek, but the grass is rather j scarce for a large number of animals.— Bryan’s road passes up the most Westerly branch and leaves our route. The first camping place after passing Sage Creek is upon a small branch run ning to the East, thirteen miles from Sage Creek. There is a sparse growth of bunch grass near the stream, tint two miles further upon the old road, there is a spring branch, along tiie borders of which there is a good supply of excellent grass. Following down the branch, about a mile below tlie crossing into a cauon, there is a iarge spring. Our train leaves the emigrant road at this place, and bears to the left around tiie mountains, passing over a very bar ren section for ten miles, when it enters a valley, through which runs a small creek, upon which we found very good grass. The water here is sweet and pal atable. Our next day’s march was over firm ground, but without water, until we ar rived near camp. Here wo found some brackish ponds of muddy water, which, 1 was informed by our guide, can always lie depended upon in tiie dryest season. Tiie grass is abundant and good in the bills to the Nortli of these ponds. We again intersected Evans’ trail at this point. It makes a very great bend to the North around the mountains, and our guides, who have traveled both, ate of opinion that our road is some fifty miles shorter. From thence we follow Evans’ road, passing two points at about three and eight miles from our last camp, aud en camped on the Eastern border of an ex tensive flat, where there are several ponds of brackish water, with good grass on the adjoining hills. Indeed, in all the hills upon this part of the road, there is abun dance of grass. The flat is destitute of grass, with a red clay soil, which was firm aud smooth when 1 passed it, but would probably become soft and boggy iu a wet season.— It is six miles across this flat by the road, and there are several pouds of waternear the Western border, with good grass near. From thenco to tiie next water the dis tance is fifteen miles. This is a small spring branch that runs into Bitter Creek, and at the head it lias sufficient water for the largest government trains. The water is slightly brackish, but quite wholesome. , Our route strikes Bitter Creek at the mouth of this creek, eight miles from its sources, thence down tiie right bank of Bitter Creek, four miles to our camp. Bitter Creek is a narrow and deep stream, with high abrupt clay banks, making it very difficult to cross or ap proach with animals. The water is brack ish, init animals drink it eagerly. There are but lew places on the creek bottom where any grass is seen, and it is only here and there that it can bo fouud on tiie adjacent hills. Our camp near the Rocky bluffs, that line tiie creek, is the last accessible grass until reaching a low range of grassy hills, which slope down to the creek on Hie opposite side. Here there i3 a good crossing for animals, and by camping at this place the best grass would be secur ed. From thence to our camp is seven teen miles along tiie bank of the creek.— Here we found only tolerable grass in the hills ou the south side of the creek. There is a fine sulphur spriug near the road, at the point where we leave the creek. Thence our road passes round hills, and at four miles crosses two small spring branches, which issue from very elevated hills upon the right. The water from these springs is excellent, and the grass here cannot be surpassed. Tiie road from thence turns again into the valley of Bitter Creek, which it follows to its confluence with the Green River. Bitter Creek is enclosed upon both sides by very elevated bluffs, that are cut up into numerous canons nnd arroyns, rendering it almost impracticable to pass with wagons, except directly upon the North bank, where the road already runs. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant. R. B. Mabcy, Captain Fifth Infantry. Major F. J. Porter, Adjt. Gen.

An Invaluable Remedy.— When Dr. liragg Hist commenced expeiimcnting in the pro duction of this Invaluable remedy, now so gener ally known as the “Arctic Liniment,” he little dreamed of the brilliant success destined to crown his labor. His only idea was to produce a lini ment for the bcncHt of the Arctic explorers under Dr. Kane, intended exclusively for their use, and adapted to thecureuf all those diseases incident to their adventurous life. Such, however, were found to lie the merits of the preparation, that Dr. Bragg felt It his duty to try its virtues in other latitudes. Tho result has been most happy. Long continued cases of Rheumatism, which had been given up by numerous physicians, yielded at once to its curative properties. The most agonizing cases of Neuralgia, Paralysis and Gout were re lieved in au incredibly brief period of time; and iu short, in all diseases where liniments are proper to he used, Bragg’s Arctic Liniment has proved Itself invincible.

This can is for preserving Fruits, Vegetables, &c., iu a perfectly FRESH state. It requires uo Wax, Solder or Coment, seals instantly, and is more easily sealed aud opened than any other Can ever invented. AU kinds of Wax and Cement are equally disagreeable aud worthless iu Healing. In presenting this article to tho public, the in ventor challenges the World in an Infallible,Sim ple, Easy, and Rapid progress of Hermetical 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 have examined it say it is without a fault. It U warranted to keep all articles put up ac cording to direction. Try it, aud in all cases where a failure is tho fault of the Can, the money will bo refuuded. The gasket is Pure Unadulterated Tasteless Gum, different from the offensive one used by oth ers. 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 poach. There is no Lead about it to deterior ate the contents; it is made entirely of Tin. This principle of Sealing has stood tho test for FOUR YEARS, aud those who have tried them will use no other can. For Male in Columbus, Ga., by R. M. ALDWORTH, June 2-tt Agent for the Patentees.
