The littlo follow was about fivo years old. - Hotting Mill. Mr. Horace Ware, says the (Shelby county) Chronicle, is about to establish a rolling mill at Columbiana near the Ala bama and Tennessee Kail Road, for the manufacture of all kinds of iron. It will be in operation in.a short time. The Alabnma and Tennessee River Rail Hoad is within 00 miles of Gadsden—of this distance 32{ miles arc graded ; 8:j miles partially graded. The Jacksonville Republican says it might lie finished with ease, to Gadsden, in 12 or 18 months if the Company hud the money in hund to purchase the iron. Cherokee Nation. Ihe Chattanooga Gazette has received a letter from the Cherokee Nation, which states that John ltoss has been elected Principal Chief, and Joseph Van. assist- | nut, by a large majority. Mr. ltoss has been Chief of (lie Chcrokccs for many 1 years, and is now GO years of age. ♦— . .-. An iron steamer has lately been built nt the yard of Mr. Samuel Snuder, of Groenport, New York, called the Alabama. ‘ She is intended to run on bake Ponchar- 1 train, between Mobilo and Now Orleans. Her Hull nnd keel arc constructed entire ly ot iron, and the decks and upperworks of wood. Mho will go out to Mobilo sloop rigged, where tlio mast will be taken out nnd she will be converted into a steam boat. ♦ ‘ -A Now York correspondent of the llul timore Clipper says : “Among the visitors ( latoly nt the Astor was the Hon. Rcverdy Johnson. He informs mo that, in the j course of a few months, ho will go to I Paris to have an eye (now blind) taken out. Some years ago, while witnessinga duel, tlio ball from the pistol of ono of the parties struck a tree, and, glancing into | liis cyo, destroyed the sight. The serious j operation of removing the whole ball of the cyo Ims now become necessary, and surgeons here advise the resort to Paris : skill.” Emit or Bail Urhlgcu* The Montgomery Advertiser snys that the stage running between thut city and Wctumpkn, met with un accident ou Sat urday last, from the breaking down of a bridge in.crossiug, by which it fell through into the water below. Several persons woro in the stage at the time and among them a negro who was injured to some extent. Krom the complaints that have recently been made of the stato of some of the bridges in this county, we nrc astonished that some serious accident has not ro- 1 suited before this timo. ♦ Interest ou Florltlu lloiitls. The Tallahuesco Floridian and Journal says that Mr. Walker, Register of Public Lands, has deposited in tlio Stato Rank of Florida, iu that city, $d:l,000, to meet tho interest falling due in September, on •bo Florida and Gulf Central Rail Road- This is tlio Road under the supervision of Messrs. 5 ulee and Sanderson. Tho same paper says that four new bales of cotton were received at Tullahus sco ou Wednesday the 24th instant, from the plantation of Mr. Braswell, of Wa- j bulla county. It is said to be the first receipt of new cotton from any point iu > tho State. —-- - Nominations | u Berrien anti Glynn. It seems that the Democracy of theso I counties find it difficult to harmonize in their political meetings. At a meeting of the party iu Berrien, which was held for tho purpose of nominating candidates for the Legislature, a portion of tho meeting seceded nnd left, as wo see by tho pro ceedings, published in the “Wire Gruss Reporter.” In Ulyuu county, the Democracy held a meeting some time since, and nominated T. Butler King for tho Senate, and J. I, Hnr rise for the House. Since then the disaffected citizens of the county met ami nominated Dr. Troup for tlio Senate, and Dr. Cargyle for the House. It has be oome now a political coutcst between the the Doctors and Lawyers. ——♦ ■ Urn. I*. 11. lirttlaii. 11. M. DcWill, I'sq., of tho Richmond . Cxamincr, and formerly of tho Montgom ery Advertiser, adds his testimony to the personal worth and merit of Gen. P. 11. Briltnn, who has been nnttouuced as a candidate for Secretary of Stato before the next Alabama Legislature. Wc ap pend au extract from the F.xntuiner of the 20th : We heartily join in this well deserved compliment to Col. Rrittan from the pen I of his former editorial associate, Mr. lie Wolf, now of the Columbus Suu. We, too, cun speak of Col. It. from editorial msociation and personal intimacy. It is with pleasure that we voluntarily' add our testimony to his high qualities as a gen tleman, and to his services and sacrifices in behalf of the Democratic cause iu Alabama. ♦. A Knaliion Worth Imitating, The latest “ fashion ” announced from F.uropo is that of dressing very plainly when going to church. Some of the la- 1 dies of the “ first class ” go up to wor ship in plain calico. It is thus sought to encourage the attendance us the very poor, who have hitherto withheld Hteir presence for lnck of Bunday clothes. Should the Fashion Plates of the next issue of “Godey” or “Frank Leslie” 1 represent plain calico at the prevailing mode for going up to worship in; we iu, } ngine that a few at least of the foirer eex i would for once declare their independence a of the fashions. Rrnnrtt for Mayor of Blew Yorh City, ‘The Now Vork Tribune lias published two editorial articles successively, recom mending and mgiug tin- nominal ion nl Janie Gordon Bennett as the Democratic candidate for Mayor. Raymond, of the Times, has been mentioned in connection with the Black Republican nomination for the same office, but the Tribune says j that his public abandonment of that party precludes his nomination. As the system of Independent candidacy for the Mayor alty has been overthrown, and only dis tinct parly men can now be nominated, the Tribune thinks Bennett is the man for tho emergency. It thinks that lie hns not only the necessary administrative ca pacity, but there is another important consideration, which docs not concern the Tribune, but which deeply affects tho Democrats, and thut is, he would rc-unite ; tho party not only in New York city but elsewhere. It also thinks that, as the hosoin friend and intimate adviser of Mr. Buchanan, lie might reconcile him to such enemies us Richmond, Fowler,-Cassidy, 1 Hart, Handers and others; and, ou the other hand, might reconcile them to Fer nando Wood, and even re-establish friend ly relations between Governor Wise and Senator Hunter. Os course tho Tribune cannot be sus pected of any “sinister or mischievous ; motives,” iu those suggestions—oh, no! It merely dislikes to perceive such bitter feud nnd discord prevailing in u party, i It is interesting to see the tricks of the artful Tribune, played upon its unsophis- j ticated (?) opponents. ♦ li. Donnelly, Esq., hns niado public the j following statement with regard to the , recent letter of Gov. Wise: “The publicity given to the letter from Gov. Wise to me, of tho 18th of July last, j has been tho cause of much animadver sion with regard to my name and charac ter. Home of tho political journals have been so unjust as to chnrgo that I opened a correspondence with Gov. Wise for the purpose of nflcrward betraying his oonfi , denco. I care little about the oilier ini- I potations that have hceti cast upon me in connection with this subject, but I con- , foss 1 feel deeply wounded by a construe- | lion of my course which, for the first timo ; in uiy life, imputes to me treachery to i those who have confided in me. Gov. i Wise hns imputed no such suspicion so | injurious to tnc. My letter to him was i prompted by feelings of the warmest ad miration for him, and gratitude for his political services in arresting the career of proscriptivo Know Nothingism nt the Houth. No cuudid man can rend it nnd believe otherwise. His reply to me sug gested a oourse that required the co-opo rntion of frieuds, nnd wus written to dis abuse certain Democrats ns to his per sonal relations to political lenders in this ( State, nnd this made it necessary to im part its contents to others. How could I possibly have forwarded them ? Their ! success required the co-operation of Dem ocrats in the several CougreHsionnl Dis tricts. It is true, 1 left the letter in the hands of Mr. Cassidy, of tlio Albany Atlas and Argus, whoso public and personal j character atTorded a sufficient reason for my doing so. How, by wliat circuitous I channel, and whothcr by accident or de- | sign, it was put within the reach of the j public press, are questions that belong to j I Gov. Wise and myself, rather than the ‘ public ; and when tho proper time comes j they will ho settled satisfactorily to us, if not to others. “I lcavo tbe question, bowover, and that of my own character, so fur as in volved iu it, to the vindication wbieli timo is suro to bring about; meanwhile, I only request of the press that it give the sumo publicity to my defense it has given to the accusations so recklessly hurled at mo. “In conclusion, let me sny that Gov. ‘ Wiso has friends in this State, who are not to bo turned from bin, by the abuse or clamor of his enemies, still less liy any mischievous misrepresentation of his lan- | guage. 11.

Corporations and diguitaries of State having presented to tho King of Portu gal addresses of condolence on the occa sion of the Queen’s death, tho King ad dressed tho following letter to the Duke of Tcrceira, President of the Council: My Dear Duke : There are few conso latious for grief such as that which now afflicts me. It is indeed a hard trial to which Providence has been pleased to sub ject me. It is sad to have known the greatest of misfortunes at the age of am bition und of the illusions that usually ac company it. lam resigned to my lot, aud ! 1 will fulfill my duties for whut my lot is, and not for what it might have been.

The Talladega (Ala.) lteporter says: Mr. Wui. Sanders, a young man raised , in this vicinity, was shot on Monday last by Mr. Johu Driscal, a near relative of his, at the school house in llowels Cove. Mr. Sanders is still living, but is believed to be fatally wounded. He received two shots from a repealer; tlie first cut off ono of bis fingers nnd the second entered his body in tbe region of tho abdomen. Driscal has not been apprehended, we ; learn. Tbe dieffiulty which led to this unfortu uatv result Is said to have grown out of the whipping of a brother of Driscal at : school by his teacher, who was the broth . er-in-law of Sanders and the Uncle of ‘ ’ Driscal. The Gold Mrli of the Atlantia. To the Editor of the E )’ Eevening Post: Dt itt Hut: 1 uui requested to nuke u statement through your paper of the gold i belt of Georgia, and particularly iu refer- I enee to Hie mines recently discovered, now owned by Mnhone ami King. The gold belt of tlio States east of the Alle ghany mountains, as is well known, runs from /the northern part of Virginia through North and Houth Carolina and Georgia, nnd terminates by running un- i dor tlio coal fields of Alabama. This belt ! is of various widths, from a few to many miles. It is of varying richness, nnd iu most places will pay for working, nnd in \ other places will yield rich returns. These rich deposits or veins arc gen erally of limited extent, so far as accessi bility is concerned. From these main veins there are often branches that extend | out of tho gold belt proper, and often I form rich mines, ns the Dorn m nc, Edgefield District, Houth Carolina; so, also, in the Columbia nnd Lincoln county (Georgia) mine. The principal mines on the main hell are, commencing on the northeast pan of ! Georgia, thence in the neighborhood of Dabtonega; nnd on the Clicstatee river, Niokclsville, the Lawhona or Sixes, arc mines ou the same belt, and have been extensively worked, and have made at times rich returns. Tho McConnell mine, recently sold to a New York company, is southwest from tlio above, and on the same belt. The Mahonc and King mines . arc southwest of the above, and on tho i same belt. In the neighborhood of all these mines there are more or less rich de posits of gold in the veins and branches. Tho great Allatoony branch, in Cass | county, Un., runs through this property, | from which millions of dollars were taken I out from 1832 to tho present time, and i this branch nnd other branches running i through this property now would yield I j fruitful'work, in getting wliat gold was I left from tho rude and imperfect working of former years. There are three priucipal veins run ning through this property, nil of which ! have been tested and gave tlio most grati- I tying results. 1 have been over the gold bearing re i | gion of Georgia, as well as of other .States, und have studied their geology, 1 and have no hesitation in saying that 1 ; have seen nothing to equal the indicn ■ tious of tho Mahonc and King mines. 1 ‘ i took a man mid entered the opening made ; in one of the veins, mid took out more than fifty dollars of gold in less than thirty minutes’ labor. There aro three hundred und twenty acres of land in this property, mid the length of the three veius cannot be less than two miles, and tbo amount of de posit gold is in large quantity. I liave given the above from memory, at the re quest of parties interested, nnd it is not above what a strict examination will bear out. The specimens that it has yielded j in nugguts of gold taken from the quartz l rock, weighing as high as eighteen or \ nineteen dwts., aro seldom equalled by ; j the most productive regions of the globe, j and that, too, under circumstances the least favorable to its proper development, j Those desirous of engaging in miniug operations for gold, need not go to Cali fornia or New South Wiiles, but in the State of Georgia find us safe investment of capital us the world atTords ; nature | has planted it there; it cannot deceive. Yours, rospect’y, JOHN DARBY, I Professor of Natural Science. j , Aubuhn, Ala. —— .luitgeslilp of Site Utalrlcl Court of Alabama* We clip tho following from the oorros -1 pondence of the Hon, dohn Forsyth, to the Mobile Register of tbe 2t)th: Washington, Aug. 20, 1850.— The Dis trict Court Judgeship, made vacant by J the decease of Judge Gayle, is the Wash ington topic of principal interest to Mo bile just now. The subject lias been be- J fore tho President and Cabinet. The lion. L. P. Walker, and George Goldthwaite, of Montgomery, are the chief contestants, ! and with Mr. liuchanan for arbiter, it is j not easy to predict who will win. The ! claims and testimonials of Judge McKiu stry nnd Mr. Jones do not appear to have reached tho White llouso yet. Mr. Wnlk ! cr has very strong backing, nud “Old ! Buck,” it was thought, leaned towards j him. Senator Clay supports him with ! zeal. Goldthwaite is bucked by Judge ! ; Campbell, nnd I presume Gov. Fitzpat rick’s Alabama tics and connections must force him to favor him. Judgo Campbell enters iuto the canvass for Goldthwaite i eon amore, and, to defeat Walker, has laid before the President his July letter to J. Withers Clay, alleging, as a paramount objection to him, that he is what the Ad- | ministration here terms a “disorganizer.” A “disorganizer” means any man who does not hold James Buchanan to be tho < Democratic party ; who does not sit j astride of the fence ou the territorial ! question, ns the Administration nnd Con stitution newspapers do ; that is, preach | up Squatter Sovereignty (vide the Consti tution of this very morning;) and lastly, who preaches tho heresy of repealing the the African Slave Trade laws. Campbell has succeeded in postponing Walkers’s appointment for the present, nnd the question is in abeyance. I leave your i readers to make their own comments upon Judge Campbell's interference iu this matter, in behalf of bis brother-in- j law. No one questions Mr. Uoldthwaite's abilities und legal fitness for the office. But there are too many people iu our part ! of the world who regurd Judge Campbell’s power and influence for evil sufficiently great already, aud who will uot view with favor it* increase, through the appoint ment to the vacant Judgeship ot a tueu bvr us hi* family it would certainly be a tduuder in the President to ottrud the sentiment of the large cl*** who are ao deeply diapleated at Jodge Campbell’* | partisan warfare upon the advocate* of the repeal of the piracy laws, by placing | on the bench with him one who would naturally re-echo his opinion* Precisely : because it would be u blunder, 1 think it likely that Mr. Bticbiinuu will commit it. | He bus a talent for making mistukes like this. - Tho settlement of tho Mississippi val j ley began iu 1778, iu which year the first colony, or united company of emigrants, lauded at Marietta, in Ohio. Thoy had ’ crossed the Allcghauies to Bro wustone, on the Monongahela, aud then embarked on a tlat-boat or ark, and floated down to the mouth of the Muskingum river. ’ They were bold aud determined rncu, ev er actuated by the principles of truth, virtue, and industry. From this germ, in 15 years, arose the State of Ohio. Since 180”, when Ohio was received, ; ten more States have been udmited into the I'uiou frontiug on that river, eight i on its west, and two on its east banks, i namely—Louisiana, Indiana, Illinois, I Missouri, Mississippi, Arkansas, Michi gan, Wisconsin, lowa, nnd Minnesota. 1 besides the Territories, one of which, namely, Kansas, is nearly ready for ad mittance. While these developments have been going ou in the West and Southwest, Alabama, Maine, aud Florida, in the East, and California and Oregon, outlie Pacific coast, have been admitted. Add ing to these the primal trio of Ycrinont, Kentucky, and Tennessee, nnd the in- : crease of States in sixty-one years is i precisely twenty. If an equal increase marks the coming sixty-one years, we shall stand, in PJ2O, at fifty-three States, with a population of one hundred and twenty millions.— Washinyton States. Racking Cot ton —A Word to Plan tern. The past season great complaints have been made, at all shipping points, about mixed packed, uml wet packed cotton, that is, wet lumps, and layers of inferior quality interspersed throughout the bale. This can be very easily avoided by keeping different qualities separate in pulling it in the gin or cotton bouses, mid being cautious In the use of water whilst packing. Large quantities should never be suffered to accumulate in the lint room ; as soon as two or three bales are ginned it should he packed, this would prevent it from being mixed Many planters only pack once a week, and some not oftener than once in two or three; now in these cases if there should be a leak in tbe roof, rain will get in, and from this cause wet lumps are bound to be in the bale. If the day for pack ing should be showery, (and many men select such days for packing) there is al most sure to be wet-layers in the bale, i fron the rains driving in upon it. From the above causes, as well as too free use of water in endeavoring to pack heavy bales, wo so frequently hear of wet packed cotton ; nnd owing to the ac cumulation of several qualities in the lint-room, it gets mixed in the bale, the value impnred, and the planter suspected of fraud, when, in fact, there was no in tention to pack falsely. We venture that no man ever loses anything by being particular in putting up cottou, but on the oilier hand money is actually made jby it. -As tho season for packing is about to commence, and many planters are building new screws, we suggest \ that the boxes he not made more than 22 to 24 inches wide, and not more than 4.] to 5 feet long. Tlioso using Kentucky bagging should only put in as much cot ton ns two nnd a half breadths will com pletely cover. Those using India bag ging should cut it in three yard pieces, and sew tho selvages well together with twine, and cut it nt the bag und, so as to reverse the fillingor large thread which is much stronger, and put iu no more cotton than six yards of bagging will well cover, l’ut on six good ropes, se i curely fastened, as the bagging and rope always pays for itself. Planters storing their cotton at shipping points should see to it, that the ware houses are Airy, mid thut the bales do uot cornu iu con tact with the ground. In storing cotton at home be particular and keep it under cover, and if you have a landing on the river, do not suffer it to lie exposed, but ship by first boat, as the river mud is apt to adhere to the bales, und damage them seriously. Wait for no particular boat, but always ship by the first boat that passes in good weather. Five hundred pounds is enough to put in a bale, for cotton will not sample as well when it is pressed too tightly, and when seven or eight hundred pounds is put in two breadths of bagging, considerable cotton i is exposed on tho sides, ropes burst off, 1 and a loss is the consequence. These ! suggestions are thrown out under the couvictiou that a great deal of trouble and expense might be saved to our plan ting friends, by being more particular in preparing their cotton for market. Wo venture tho assertion that cotton, properly handled, will, in the long run, amply remunerate the plnntcr for auy trouble lie may be at in handling it nice ly.—Eufaula Express. An Editor’* Wedding. An editor recently took it into his head to get married in New Orleans, and a glorious time he had of it. The groom was Joseph Hanlon, au associate editor of the True Delta newspaper. The bride was born in Havana, of Spanish parents. Five hundred invitations were issued, two hundred nnd fifty of which were transla ted into French and sent to the families of foreign descent, nnd two hundred and fifty were sent to the families of the American population. The marriage ceremony took place in church, nnd was performed by Rev. Father Monniban. The galleries, the aisles cf the church, and every part, were filled with a gay and brilliant audience ; the church was illuminated, and the altars decorated. After the usual ceremony of the ring, sprinkling of holy water, nnd signatures by bride nnd groom, with their friends ns witnesses, the party left for the elegant residence of Mr. Morton, the step-fatber of the bride. On tbeir arrival, they found a large crowd assembled, which entirely filled up the street. A band of music heralded their arrival. Dancing then commenced, aud the house nnd surround ing grounds rapidly filled up. The yard of the residence was covered by a tent and illuminated by colored Chi nese lanterns lighted with w’dx candles. In this tent was placed a table loaded with all tho luxuries and delicacies of tlio season. At about eleven o’clock a splendid dis play of tire-works came off, consisting of rockets, Roman candles, Bengal lights, ’ blue lights, table rockets, nnd revolving wheels. At one o’clock a German brass band made their appearance ; and, after a brilliant serenade, entered aud played to the dancers. During the evening an hour was appropriated to a concert, in which the guests participated, which eli cited rapturous applause. Miss Dimitry, daughter of Professor Dimitry, nnd niece of the learned linguist, Professor Dimitry, now filling a public station at Washing ton, played a piece on the piano, with variations, that enraptured every one. The whole matter ended pleasantly, , and for an editor’s wedding, it was some thing out of the usual order of Lhiugs. ♦- A f.uit I lillil Found--An Kivlttng Inveb, Gu Monday morning, the 15lh Inst., a liuL daughter of Benjamin Morse, rosi dmg near the lower end of Greenwood Luke, strayed from home, taking to the mountains. Hhe was not missed until about two hours afterwards, when search was made, but no truce of her was dis covered. Au alarm was raised, aud tbe whole neighborhood turned out, explor ing every nook and corner for u loug distance around. That night tlio seurcli was continued with lamps, but without success. Tuesday and Wednesday the crowds increased until they numbered three hundred in all, divided into thirty j or forty groups—still no intelligence of the missing child. On Thursday morning, while Anthony RhinesmitU was conducting an exploring party in tho Burnt Meadow mountains, about four miles Bast of tbe child's home, lie observed a little one rushing through the underbrush, as if afraid of pursuit, lie sprang to her, and soon found her to bo the object of his search. She bad subsisted nil that lime without food, and slept on the ground. Her age is three years and seven months. Her parents in despair had given up hope of ever again seeing their loved one alive, and suspi i cion was beginning to bo directed against a neighbor for having decoyed her off and murdered her. The gratification of her parents cannot ensily be imagined.— Patterson (-V. J.) (Inardian, 22d. ♦ Remarkable Circumstance. At the celebration of the semi centen nial anniversary of tho ordination of the Rev. AUcu McLeauc, which wus held at Simsbury, Conn., on the lfitli, there were present a family of eight brothers and sisters, every one of whom was present at the ordination fifty years ayo. These eight comprise all the children that their parents ever had, nnd the youngest is 55 years old. It is very rare that an entire family of eight can be found, with rauks unbroken by death, the youngest of whom has attained so advanced an age. They are the children of the late Col. Noah A. Phelps, of Simsbury. SPECIAL. NOTICES. . . i For Deputy Marshal- The friends of WILLIAM It.
