OOLUMBUB: Largest City and Country Circulation. Monday Morning, Sept. O, IHS 8. See reading matter on every page. Picked Up We learn from the Dalton Times, that a youth 10 or 17 years of age, by the gome of Snow, was arrested on Tuesday last, on the ebargo of placing obstruc tions on the track of the State lload, and after examination, was committed to jail to await his trial beforo the Superior Court. New Discovery. The Salem (Ala.) Era, mentions the discovery of springs of mineral water on the land of Judge Shotwell, about three miles east of the village of Salem, and near to the track of the Opelika Branch Rail Road. Tho quality of tho water is not stated. —’ ‘ The Paraguay Expedition. Tbo National Intelligencer learns that the able and gallant ollicor, Commodore Shubrick, has been selected by the Navy Department to command the expedition to Paraguay, and will proceed to his sta tion in the Sabino frigate, now ready for sea at New Pork. Commodoro S. will have a squadron of twelve or fourteen vessels under his command, with a con siderable force of marines. Mr. ltogtri. The National Intelligencer says that a recent letter from Romo speaks of tho exhibition of Mr. Rogers, (the artist en gaged to construct the remaining statues of the IVasliinton monument) of the spir ited series of reliefs for the portals of tho Capitol at Washington, illustrating the life of Columbus with allegoric and his toric statues in niches and arabrusquo re liefs, introducing much of symbolism in the intervening spaces—the whole an in teresting, original, and finely-imagined monumental work. Ocean Steamers. It is twenty years since the practica bility of ocean steam navigation was demonstrated by the arrival of the Sirius, (April 1838,) in Now York, from Cork, making tho passage in eighteen days.— Sho was a steamer of only 700 tons and 320 horse power. On tho same day, the Great Western, 1340 tons, arrived in New York, from Bristol, having made the pas sngo in fourteen and a half days. Steam ships now arrive every day in the harbor of New York, and thoro aro ten a day on the ocean, bound to the United States, from different points of Europe. ■ ♦ Fatal Accidents. Wo learn from the Forsyth Educational Journal that Mrs. Barns, on returning from the funeral of Rev. James Carter, near the ludian Springs, on the 2f>tli ult., was thrown from her buggy, and killed instantly. Sho had a stnnll child in her lap at tho time, that escaped un hurt. Wo learn from tho sauio paper that Mr. William Bostick, while riding a raco on Saturday week last, was thrown from his horse and instantly killed. From Oregon and Washington we learn that the movement to tho gold region continued at high tide, largo bands, woll armed and mounted, forcing their way through tho hostile Indian district.— Fresh evidences of hostility have been furnished by the savages. In his pre parations for prosecuting the war, Major Oen. Clarke is unremitting, aud it was anticipated that immediately after the arrival of the reinforcements sent front Now York, he would take the lield. The troops in the meantime were moving up the river to rendezvous at Fort Walla Walla. Health of Sew York. We learn from the report of tho New York City Inspector, as published in the Herald, that there wereCs7 deaths in the city during tho past week—an tucrcase of 19 as compared with tho mortality of the week previous, and 54 moro than oc curred during the corresponding week ot last year. The mortality among children continues to bo large. Os the whole number of deaths last week, 489 were children of ten years or less. One fatal case of yellow fever is reported. The deoeased, David l'olloek, a native of Scotland, was steward of the brig John Stevens, just arrived from Trinidad de Cuba, which vessel is uow at quarantine, 110 was admitted to Bellevue Hospital on the 22d ult., anil die ! the same day. Three Peraon, l’olaonrrt. The Clayton (Ala.) llanner learns from a private letter from Midway, Barbour oounty, that three members of a family uatnod Davis, residing iu the neighbor hood of Midway, had died suddenly, aud with symptoms strongly indicating that they had been poisoned. A post mortem examination showed that the liver, stom ach and bowels were peculiarly affected which caused a strict examination to be made of the food in the house, wheu it was discovered that lead was thoroughly mixed with the meal they had been using. The mill from which it was obtained had lead about the machinery, which was by some means worn off iu grinding, and mixed with the meal. We supposo that the meal ground for this family by acci dent got a greater quantity of tho lead than any other which had been ground there, or others would have beon affected by it. Blob* nutl Incendiaries, New York, Sept. B.— On Wednesday night a mob of about one thousand men destroyed by fire a portion of the quaran tine buildings on Staten Island ; and tho remaining buildings, including tho cot tages and fine dwellings of tho health officers, wore burnt by incendiaries on | Thursday night. Also, the Female llos l pital, containing Beveuty-five patients.- j The patients were removed into tho open nir, aud three females died from expo- I •ure. The Marino Guard protected the gov* wnment property. “ Hontat Tom,” age.tu. Our neighbor of the Enquirer sticks to it that he was right in his re collection of the remark of “Honest Tom” about the “bloody hands” and “hospitable graves,” and that of course our recollection is entirely at fault. Well, really, we con sider it of but very little importance, | whether lie or we are right; as we said before, to put the best face upon the ! matter that can be, it amounts to about | tho same thing. We thought, however, that as our cotemporary contradicted our quotation with such nn authoritativo air, that he certainly must have had the documents, and as we did not have them, j wo thought lie certainly would be so kind, so condescending, aud so obliging as to j produce them, and put an extinguisher j on the controversy. As he has not done this, wo are compelled to think he does J not. know much more about the matter than we do, and shall continue to think j that it is a mere matter of recollection between us as to tho words used by “Honest Tom,” until we have better evidence than the mere ipse dixit of one who has no means of knowing more about the matter than wo do. But until the “documents are procured,” wo do not think tho pursuit of tho game will authorize further waste of candle, so far j as the words employed by “Honest Tom” j are concerned. But what most excites our wonder and 1 “overcomes us like a summer cloud*” is, that the Enquirer, which has been pitch ing into Douglas and other anti-Lecomp ton Democrats, os well as those who voted for tho English bill, should express hia j preference for one who has never had | uuy oilier political faith but opposition to the South and her institutions, and j who, while a member of Congress, in every vote lie has given in which the rights of the South were involved, lias, J almost without a solitary exception, votod with her enemies und against her inte rests. Wo think tho Enquirer must bo hard-pressed, indeed, for a leader of its party, to express a preference for Mr. Corwin to anybody, Democrat, Black Republican, or what not. But there is no accounting for tastes, political as well as others, and the times aro so out of point in these latter days, that nothing a partisan editor can say or do surprises us much. We must confess, however, that a few years ago, when politicians were less trickey than they are now, wo should liavo thought passing strange of any Southern editor who would have express ed preference for Tom Corwin over any body. By tho way, and in conclusion, is our cotemporary right down certain that his pet, Tom, voted supplies to tho army ? Wo liavo no distinct recollection that ho did, and as the rocollection of our co temporary is so entirely an fait upon tho subject, will ho tell us at what particular timo and under wliut particular circum stances? We should like to know. If ho will make his declarations good by documentary evidence, wo will choorfully acknowledge that “Honest Tom” is “a marvelous proper man.” Native Wlnct. The editor of the Houston (Texas) Re public, writing from Washington, says: Mr. Affleck, of Washington county, will make 150 barrels of wine, from the Mustang Grape, which grows wild in great abundance. 1 saw some wine, and tasted it too, five days after the process of pressing, and during fermentation. It is a good qual ity of the juice of the grape, combined with thejuice of the Chinese Sugar Cane. The grape itself is too tart, and saccharine matter added makes it more pleasant. A person may look upon this wine without breaking tho precepts of Holy Writ, which says, “look not on the wine when it is red.” The Mustang wine is of a deep purple color. Four gallons may be made from ouo bushel of wild grapes.— When the grape is cultivated it is much more productive. Tho value of this wine is about $2 per gallon. Many persons make eight or ten bai rids in Washington county for home consumption. Shooting Scrape. On yesterday morning, a little after two o’clock, a difficulty occurred between Edward Wickham and Johu O'Neil, the latter a barber ou the steamship Augus ta. Au old grudge seotus to have existed between the parties above mentioned, when on this occasion after Borne quarrel ling Wickham drew a revolver aud fired two shots at O’Neil, who in turn fired four shots at Wickham, ono of which un fortunately struck a bystander named Thomas Hennelly, under the left arm, the ball lodging in his breast. The firing attracted the police, when a general stampede of the whole crowd took place. After a brisk chase, Wickham and a man by the name of Murphy wore overhauled and arrested, but O’Neil came up and cotifessed tho act, stating that it wns done in self-defence. Tho two principal were taken to the Guard House to await the result of llennelly’s wound. At last ac counts Hennelly was somewhat better.— Savannah Republican, 3 d inst. Have Your Printing (lone at Home. We have lying on our desk the circu lar of the Huntsville Female College, Alabama, with a llcport of the Examining Committee of College, June, 1858, at tached. At the bottom of that report appeared tho following significant item (italics our own): Note. —lt is to be regretted that the proof of the accompanying Annual Circu lar could not bo corrected by tho Presi dent. It was printed in A T ttc York, and seveu thousand copies havo been sent us, full of errors, grammatical aud ortho graphical. The quantity is too great to throw aside ; and, besides, it is now too late to have others printod. Comment Is unnecessary. Death of Rev. James Carter. We learn from the Forsyth Educational ’ Journal, that llov. James Carter, of Butts county, a venerable Baptist minister, well known in middle Georgia, died at his : residence in Butts county, on the 24th j ult. He was a man of most devout piety, [ and a faithful minister of the Gospel of j many years standing. Few ever stood higher among those who knew him, both as a man and as a Christian, than “Uncle Jimmy,” as he was familiarly called by his acqaaintances, and the death of no ! man in Georgia would carry grief to more hearts. We know that ho sleeps well . after lifes fitful fever, for his works were \ always good, and will follow him. North Carolina Gold. The Montgomery County Gold, so much talked of lately, is no humbug Mr. Christian was iu town a few days ago with his pockets full. The specimens he brought with him were very rich—worth some $3,000 to $4,000. One of the nug gets, about twice the size of a man’s fist, weighed 71 lbs., and contained more than ! 0 lbs. of gold—say nearly $2,000. This and several other very rich, but less val j uable specimens were left here for exhi- j bition. They took the shine off our other ! rocks. These latter, however, are all right again, for gold rocks do not stay long on exhibition : and our coal rocks, copper rocks, lead rocks and black band J iron rocks, are in the ascendant, as they | ought to be. Tho fact is, we have very little use for theso gold mine people.— They think they confer a favor by letting I us look at their dross; tho people who | own the useful mines never fail to send a ; box full of their specimens for good and ! all. In very truth, money must be the root of evil; it puts an end to liberality. If the rocks wo had last week had been any other than gold or silvor rocks, we should have had them now—unless wo had started them for the Mint.—Fayette ville Observer. Lawyers Engaged In the Revival. A correspondent of the Savannah News writing from Athens, Georgia, on tho 26th ult., says: It is worthy of note, that the lawyers I of this (western) circuit aro now carrying | on a most extraordinary revival at Jeffer ! son, in the adjoining county of Jackson, Superior Court being in session there.— 1 The most prominent movers are Hon. : James Jackson, the representative from this Congressional District; Thos. It. It. : Cobb, Esq.; It. H. Overby, Esq., former | candidate for Governor; Hon. James P. | Simmons, former candidate for Congress lin this district; and W. J. Peeplos, Esq., iof Lawrencßville. These gentlemen are ! all active and ardent church members, and are exerting their utmost efforts in carrying on the great religious work which seems to bo pervading this whole country. Just such a work was com menced by the same members of the bar, i last week, in YVnlton county, which is now going on, I learn, in tho hands of the regular ministry. Escaped Jail* Revel, who was convicted for mimler at the last term of Crawford Superior Court, and transferred to Clinton Jail for safe confinement, contrived on Sunday morning last to open the inside door of his cell, where he stationed himself until the Jailor opened the front door to pre sent him bis breakfast, at which moment he presented a bowie-knife and Revolver, and tumbling the Jailor overboard, mado for tho swamp, where friends with horses were waiting his arrival, and have since escorted him to parts unknown. The Jailor received no material damage from the ungallant salute. Clinton jail is one of the strongest in tho State, tho walls, floor and ceiling hav ing been erected out of heavy, solid smooth granite ashlers, at a cost of near ten thousand dollars.— Albany Patriot , 2d instant. Iloriea In tlie United States. It is estimated that there are 50,000 horses in the State of Massachusetts, 221,000 in the New England States, 4,- 500,000 in the United States. Ohio stauds foremost in the number of horses, New York next, Pennsylvania next, Kentucky next, and Minnesota last of all. Esti mating tho horses of Massachusetts, at $76 per head, their value will be $3,760,- 000, and all the horses in tho United Statos at that rate, would make a value of $337,500,000 or more than three times the whole cotton and woolen manufac turing capital in the Union. Tho horse interest is a most important one to tho wealth and prosperity of the States. Mortuary of New Orleans. The deaths in the city for the thirty hoursending at noon yesterday amounted to ninety-two. Although opinions are not yet altogether unanimous, we are glad to be able to say that the general opinion is tbat the epidemic is likely to decline. The deaths in the Charity Hos pital. in view of the unfavorable weather j for the sick, have considerably declined I during the past few days, and it is hoped that the record for the current twonty j four hours will show a continued pro- J gress iu this favorable direction.—A r . 0. j Picayune, Sept. 1.

September 1, ISSB-6t Facts for the People*—lt was a noted saying of the great l)r. Magcndie, when lecturing j before hie class, “I care not a button for theories, give meyiicft.” This is likewise the motto of the J celebrated Dr. Bragg, who, by a careful observance I of facts alone, Ims been enabled to bring bis uiudi j cal preparations to such per lection. His latest iu i ventlon, the Arctic Liniment, is also bis greatest i inveutiou; and it may be stated as a “fact for the | people,” that it Is the best liniment now in exist j once, and destined to supercede all others. Anotli ! er fact is, that it never falls to cure those diseases for which It U recommended. The best evidence of the value of a medicine is, that it effects a radi cal cure, and this is eminently the case with the Arctic Llnimeut. It cure* Rheumatism, Neural gia, Paralysis, Sprains, Bruises, Burns, Scalds, 4c., and all eruptive diseases; aud is equally efficacious in curing the diseases of animals, such as spavin, riug-bone, poll-evil, 40.
