A dispatch from Now Orleans on the Bth, says that authentic information had been received, which states that Minister McLnne did not concludo the treaty with Mexico; and that the matter remains un settled. ♦ Hog Cholera. The I.awrenceburg (Tonn.) Journal leans that the hog cholera is prevailing to a great extent in portions of that county. A gentleman residing a few miles from that town has lost over one hundred hogs by the disease. Several others have lost largo numbers. Crops In Arkansas, A correspondent writing to the Fort Smith Times, from Russellville, Tope county, Ark., says that the crops in that county are superb, and that the yield will be so great that the farmers will have to build new barns. The Helena Shield, of the same Stnte, says: This has been a fine week upon crops. No rain, and the cotton is opening rap idly over Ilia whole region of eastern Ar kansas. The prospect is very favorable for the heaviest cotton crop by far ever raised in the State. Corn, though dam aged by drought in May and June, is pretty good, generally speaking. The Silver Mines in Arizona. From the Arizonian of August 11, we extract the following: Several rich veins of silver ore have recently been discovered in a spur of the Santa Cruz mountains, on the westerly side of the range,and about five miles from the Santa Cruz river. The mines have been registered at Mesilla as the “ boun dary Mines,” the chief of which is styled the North Vein, by Mr. Guido Kusteland his associates, among whom are Messrs. Montgomery, Smith and Archibald, of Tusoon. The ore, which is argentiferous galena, assays as high as $179 per tun— the average of $153. Close to the Boun dary Mines there is an abundance of wood and water. The Patagonia mine is only eight miles, and the New York and Compadre mines only ten miles distant from the newly found mines. A Severe but Just Punishment. We see that a fellow has recently been treated to a dose of Judge Lynch, In Is. saquence county, Miss., under the follow ing circumstances: He bad been kindly given his breakfast by the lady of a planter, whose husband was absent from the house. He repaid her kindness by insulting overtures, which she resented, and when the fellow left, she ordered the negroes to follow him, while she sent off for her husband. He was overhauled near Tallula, and the indig nant husband and the excited population which had gathered together, treated him to nearly a thousand lashes. He was then allowed to get into his buggy, with orders to leave, which he did “in double quick time.” His sufferings are said to have been awful to behold, but who will say the punishment was unmerited. Whether or not he is likely to recover we know not. We could not learn the name of the man, but understand he was from Yazoo county. . The Great South Carolina Tunnel. A few days ago there was a very large and enthusiastic celebration at the Stump House Mountain Tunnel, on the Blue Ridge Rail Road, in South Carolina. The Governor of the State and other distin guished persons were present. From a graphic sketch in the Charleston Mer cury we gather these facts: The Stump House Mountain is a high elevation, rising to a level of 1700 feet above tide water, situated in Pickens Dis trict, at a distance by the traveled route of 305 miles from Charleston. Twelve miles to the westward runs the Chatuga river, the boundary between the States of South Carolina and Georgia. The scene ry from the summit of the Stump House is Bublimely grand, embracing the North Carolina summits, the high peaks of the Alleghanian chain, Mount Pisgah, Cold, Ball, and Table Mountain, and the Saddle Peak. The tunnel is 5864 feet in length, 4103 of which have already been driven, leaving only 1701 feet to be now worked. The tunnel is cut to a grade of sixty feet to the mile, rising westward, and will re quire tho excavation of nearly 70,000 cubic yards of stone. The Middle Tun nel, at another point on the road, is com pleted, and the Saddle Tunnel is one third through. It is thought that, in twelve months, all the tunnels in South Carolina could be completed, and also the road-bed be ready for the track. | AmXlioi Rope Walker, Quite a number of persons assembled at Charlotte yesterday afternoon to sec “Monsieur De Motte” cross the river on a rope stretched from Holden’s Elevator to tho warehouse opposite. At the appoint ed time the performer made his appear ance and started out, pole in hand. He was dressed in white tights, and wore on iiis head a liat ffecoratcd with ribbons. After proceeding tremblingly along to a i point about thirty feet from the shore, he lost his balance and fell sprawling into i the water beneath, losing hold of his ‘ balance pole, which stuch upright iu the muddy bottom. De Motto rose to the sur- ! face, and was picked up by one of the I boats in attendance. lie was brought to j shore exceedingly damp and shivering from cold, but not divested of his ambi tion ; for having warmed himself some what and pullod on a pair of pantaloons over his tights, ho started again, and after many narrow escapes, succeeded in reaching tho eastern shore in safety. He ! afterwards returned by the samo route, and was greeted with applause as vocife rous almost as the shouts of laughter and ridicule which went up when his misfor tune occurred. It is said that De Motte designs to cross again some time next weok. —ltochcstcr Democrat. Colonel T. B. Shatincr soiled from Bos ton, on Monday week, in tho bark Wy man, on a voyage of exploration to the North Atlantio, in search of a feasible route for a Hue of telegraphic cominuni- ! cations between this couutry anil Europe, , by way of Greenland, Iceland, the Faroe i Islands, nud Scotland; his object being I to examine tho seas, tho bays and tho j lauds, contemplated to be traversed. I Threatened War in tho North Prctflc. j Corro.poudeßGe ol the N. 0. Picayune. San Fuam isuo, August JO, 1850 Tii* leading topic of discussion with us is the recent threatened outbreak be tween our countrymen nnd the British authorities at tho North, 1 informed you in my last, that Ueu. Harney had taken possession of Bellevue Island, (or Snu Juan Island as it is sometimes called,) situated on the cas ern side of Van couver's, in l'ugrt Sound. Sinee that time tho U. S. steamer Massachusetts lias arrived there from Fort Bellingham, and had lauded three companies of sol diers. Another company was to be car ried there from Fort Townsend by the \ IT. S. steamer Shubrick. Immediately on the receipt of this news at Yiolori, V. 1., three English warships were ordered to tho island. Those who landed, found posters placed iu various positions about the islnud, to the following effect: Mii.it.irv Post. San Juan Ulaud. I W. July 11, ISM. j ‘Order* No. I.] I. In compliance with orders, and in structions from the General commanding, a military post will be established on this island, on whatover site tho com manding officer may select. 11. All the inhabitants of the island aro requested to report at once to the commanding officer, in case of any in cursion of the Northern Indians—so that ; lie may take such steps as he may deem necessary to prevent any future ocour -1 reuce of the same. 111. This being United States territory, no laws, other than of the United States, nor courts, except such as arc held by virtue of said laws, will be recognized or allowed on this island. By order of Capt. Pickett. James W. Forsyth, 2d Lieutenant, 9th Infantry, Post Adjutant. A good deal of bluster ensued between the English and American inhabitants, and Gov Douglass, of Yictori, formally protested, in the name of his Government, ’ against the occupation. He also ad- I dressed a message to the Colonial Legis lature, iu which, among other things, he j says: Immediately on being informed of the - landing of United States troops at San Juan ller Majesty’s ships Tribune, under the command of Capt. Hornby, was de i spatched to that quarter, and soon after wards a detachment of Royal Engineers and Royal Marine Light Infantry were ordered‘from New Westminster by Her Majesty’s ship Plumper, Capt. Richards, and those troops will be landed at Sau Juan to protect the lives and property of British subjects. You will observe, gentlemen, from en -1 closure No. I, that the captain in com mand of the United Slates detachment of troops, in a public notice, dated 27th of July, assumes the cxerisc of exclusive | sovereign rights in the Island of San Juan, while the President of the United : States altogether disclaims such preten sions, and seeks at most to continue the joint sovereignty and domain in common with Great Britain. We may presume, from that circum -1 stance, that the notice in question was framed in ignorance of the intentions of the U. S. Government, and that the pre tensions set forth will not be maintained. Entertaining such opinions, 1 have not failed to impress on Her Majesty’s naval officers now stationed at San Juan the desire of Her Majesty’s Government to avoid every course which may unneces j sarily involve the suspension of the ami cable relations subsisting between Great Britain and the United States : at the same time, those officers have been in structed, and are prepared to assert the rights and maintain the honor and dignity of our Sovereign and her dominions. JAMES DOUGLASS. The House of Assembly thereupon met, j and here is an extract from their procee dings : The Speaker remarked that if there was any opposition to the message, now was i the time to express it. If the House hes itated until Monday it might be too late. Mr. Skinner characterised the act of ’ the landing of the U. S. troops at San J Juan Island as worse than filibustering— jas piracy itself. The next thing would be a band of these marauders landing on Vancouver Island, and he called upon every Englishman who had a family tv rise and repel the marauding invaders. Mr. Pemberton quite agreed with every word said by his honorable friend, (Mr. Skinner,) and hoped the House would give expression to its feelings. Mr. Yates deprecated any hasty action, and declared that the House was not pre pared to act upon so important a matter on so short a notice. The Speaker thought the proper course would be a motion to go into Committee of the Whole on the Governor’s message, | at an early day, and upon this suggestion a motion was made and carried, that the 1 House adjourn “till to-morrow (Saturday) morning, at 9 o’clock, to go into Commit- I tee upon the Governor’s message.” The House then adjourned. “True, Oh King.” If truth was ever spoken by mortal man, it was by Sam Houston, when, in his Nacogdotches speech, he thus de tailed the practical effects of reopening the African slave trade by repealing the penal statutes of Congress against it: Reopen the African slave trade and the South will be deluged with barbari ans. Your present stock of negroes would fall in value, and recede in point of intelligence. Not a poor man would be able to stay in the country, because labor would be so cheap that he would not be able to get bread for himself and ; his family. The labor market would be overdone. The vast army of slaves j would be put to work iu your cotton i fields, and the vast crop would glut the ! market beyond all reasonable demand. J Prices would fall to four or five cents per J pound, and even then, when the demand j was supplied, the greater portion of your j crop would lie upon your hands for want ■of a purchaser. Freights would advance | to an enormous price, because every sail j that the Yankees could raise—the dear abolitionist gentlemen who love the negro so well—would be engaged iu the traffic. Each vessel that could be bought or pressed into the service would be upon the coast of Africa. It would be more profitable than the carrying trade. Your cotton would lie and rot upon your j wharves, or in your ginhouses, because | transportation will not pay, and ruin to your financial interests will bo the con i sequence. If negroes should be cheaper, money 1 would be dearer. It is easier now to buy j a negro boy at $1,500 than it was twenty j years ago at SSOO. Increase the produc \ tion of cotton at once ten-fold, as it would j be, and the demand falls off in propor tion. Tho Yankees then would get your cotton at four cents per pound, and make it to calico and red handkerchiefs to I buy negroes with on the coast of Africa, which they will bring South to sell for ■ your hard dollars. To such a ruinous 1 policy lam opposed. Ido not go to the results that will accrue to the African. I will not discuss its morality. That is a question with which I have nothing to do. Its practical effects upon us and our pos terity, are what wo aro first to look at. It may bo that tho African will bo bene fitted, but it will be death to the whites. -♦ Charles Antrebua exhibited to us (says I tho Sacramento Union,) some fine speci | mens of cotton on the stalk, which were j grown on the river bank about three I miles south of the city. The plant was | nearly four feet high, and the texture of j the fibro exceedingly delicate. Wo do not j see why every Californian cannot raise his own cotton in his own little plot or gar den.

Iu Cincinnati, a committee of five hun dred have been appointed by the Demo cratic Executive Committee, to receive Douglas, on his arrival at that place. Extraordinary preparations are being | made to receive him. From Jamaica anil Trinidad. New Orleans, Sept. 7. —IVe have dates from the Island of Jamaica to the 15th of August. Reinforcements have been asked of the home government, for the better protec tion of the northern part of the Island against negro riots. The sugar crop of Trinidad will be about forty thousand hogsheads. Origin of the Difficulty on file Pa cific. The Victoria (Oregon) Gazette gives the following account of the origin and rise of the difficulty now existing on the Pacific between the American and British authorities: By the strict reading of the treaty, the Island of San Juan would seem to belong to the United States, but the intent of the parties who made the treaty can have ; little bearing on the question; for when “the middle of the channel” was declared the boundary line between the countries, it was probably not known where “the channel was. There are several clian ; nels running between islands connecting the Gulf of Georgia with the Fuca Strait. C The Americans claim that the Canal de ( Harro, which separates Vancouver and the San Juan Islands, is the main channel, I and, therefore, the boundary line ; while ! ! the English contend that we have no right ! ‘ to call that the main channel, in the mean , j ing of the treaty, more than any of the : others. It appears pretty well established, however, that the widest, deepest and best channet leaves San Juan Island on I the American side of the line. San JuaD, Lopez, and some other islands lie in a line easterly from the southern apex of Vancouver’s Island, and would . seem to have formed a part of the same, until the waters of the Gulf of Georgia , broke through, forming several channels, | connecting the Gulf with the Strait of Fuca. A more natural boundary would 1 run through the middle of Fuca Strait, , direct to the mainland of Washington ’ | Territory, thence north to the 49tb paral ’ lei. John Bull had not his accustomed ! sharpness about him when he made this | treaty, or, knowing well what Jonathan j is when kicking and trembling under the | despotic thumb of Lord Democracy, he could have backed him down a little ! further, to a more natural boundary, as easily as he did from fifty-four forty, to forty-nine. i The disputed island lies northwesterly from the entrance to Puget Sound and the mainland of Washington Territory in the vicinity of Port Townsend, the broad I and beautiful Strait of Fuca being be j tween. Sailing from the Sound to Victo i ria across the Fuca, San Juan appears to ! be a part of Vancouver’s Island, and the j disputed channel cannot be distinguished 1 until you have come down opposite its mouth, or junction with the Strait. Notwithstanding the treaty, and the j loud talk that is made about the com manding importance of San Juan to the ! Americans, it naturally belongs to the j British, and is of infinitely greater value to them than to the United States. The channel in dispute is the gate to the Gulf of Georgia, Fraser River and British Co lumbia—mostly British waters and Brit ish possessions. If this channel is, by the treaty, determined to be the boundary line, it only gives us a small island of small value, with no other advantages, as we own nothing north of it; while to them it is the doorway to all their pos sessions. This is no reason, however, why the United States should not have I the island, if by any right it belongs to j her; but if John Bull goes to war for this island it will be because it is of great value to him ; and if Jonathan backs out, as he usually does, it will bo because it is not of much value to him and his master. King Cotton nnd Lord Democracy tell him it is not in the right direction to he worth fighting for. Meantime, Ihe American forces contin ue to occupy the island, which is of con siderable agricultural nnd strategic value, while several big English war steamers aro anchored near at hand. No one doubts that they could blow the little barracks and (heir armament sky high at a moment’s warning, nnd wo hate no ves sels here capable of coping with them ; but sensible persons in reality anticipate no further trouble. Diplomacy, let us hope, will settle it all; though, as in the McLeod case, stickling for national rights and honor may bring us to tho verge of a hostile collision. Munificent Donation. lion. Oliver J. Morgan, of Louisiana, has presented to Bishop Polk, of that State, the handsome sum of forty thous and dollars, as the foundation of a Pro fessorship of Agricultural Chemistry in the “University of the South.” The mu nificent donation makes up tho entire amount of five hundred thousand dollars, required by the charter for the establish ment of the proposed University. Trim Colton Crop. The Galveston News learns by a gen tleman just from Port Bend county, that ihe late drought has seriously Injured tlie 1 | cotton crop. \ month ago the pro.-peots for a crop were never better, hut now our informant states that the crop in Wharton i and Fort Bend counties will fall short of an average crop fully one-third, and lie j thinks the crop will be no better in the | ( other counties of the Uraios and Colora do rivers. The injury from tho drought | first manifested itself only some two or i three weeks ago, and though rains have ; since fallen, yet they were too late, and done more harm than good, and ail the late forms have fallen off Asa general rule, the cotton is now ail open and ready to pick, and there is no chance for any more to mature. Hence, the cnlcula tion is, that tho entiro crap will be in tho hands of factors much earlier than iu any former year BPECIAI , NOTICES. For Deputy Marshal. Tin- frtilull of XV 11.1.1 AM U.

This is the result of perse vering energy in its introduction, sustained by a | determination adopted at the outset, and never for j an instant departed from, that its original purity ! and excellence should continue to the end. The common fate, attendant upon ail such suc | cessful efforts, has overtaken the manufacturer. It is imitated by unscrupulous imposters, and an inferior and spurious article is palmed off upon j the community, to the great detriment of thepub lic as well as injury to tho manufacturer, both in ] emolument and well-earned reputo. Every effort has been made to guard against this piracy by a Copyright of the Label, anil by peculiar shape of j the bottle. I I caution the public against this imposition upon | them and upon my rights, and I earnestly desire | such information from those who may possess it. j by having been victimized or otherwise, as will | enable me to protect tho public and myself by prosecution to tho utmost extent of the law.
