COLUMBUS: Largest City and Country Circulation. Thursday Morning, March 2*. Hostilities on the Gulf. Our telegraphic column presents par ticulars of the commencement of hostili ties on the Gulf of Mexico, by tho en gagement with ami capture of the two Mexican vessels, the Marquez ami Gen. Miramon. The news is exciting and of extraordinary interest, revealing an im portant crisis in the affairs of Mexico and our relations with that distracted and un happy country. We refer to the tele graphic dispatches for particulars. ♦ The Sheriff of Harris county, Texas, has levied on tho locomotive, cars, and road bed of the Galveston and Houston Rail Hoad on a judgment for $32,000. Herbert P’elder, Ksq., hiving resigned the office of Solicitor General of tho Tal lapoosa Circuit, Gov. Grown has appoint ed Mr. Kendrick, of Newnnn, to till the vacancy. So we learn from tho Daily Telegraph. -4* ♦ A boy named James Cain, about sev enteen years of age, accidentally shot himself while trying to get a pistol out of his pocket in Atlanta, Sunday last. The wound is severe though not dangerous. We learn that the jail of Taylor county, at Butler, was consumed by fire on Thurs day night. The prisoners were taken out in time to save them from injury.— Origin of tho fire not known. Tho huil ding was of wood. - ♦- ‘l'liiimns Cos. Cotton for Savannah. The Troupville Watchman of Tuesday, says two largo wagons from Thomas co., loaded each to its fullest capacity with cotton bales, passed through that village last Sunday afternoon cn route for Savan nah, via Station No. 13, and the Main Trunk. Station No. 13 is about sixty five miles from Thomasville. Tlie Wheat Crop. A gentleman who has just returned from u trip through many of the counties iu Middle Georgia, between the Georgia, Central and Macon Kail Hoads, informs the Atlanta American that ihc wheal crop was never more promising, and should no mishap befall, the yield will lie very heavy. —- Washington Superior Court. On Friday last Wm. Jordan, who was arrested in Augusta several months since, having in charge two negroes of Mr. Sol. Newsome, of Washington county, was brought before Judge llolt, at the pres ent term of Washington Superior Court, and pleading guilty, was sentenced to ton yenrs's hard liibor in tho penitentiary.— He is only seventeen years of age, and was evidently enveigled into the scrape by the negroes. - ♦ Kail from u Sr a Hold. Tbe Atlanta papers record the falling from the third story of the Masonic Hall, in that city, of two men, one a painter and the other a plasterer. Their names are Jeru. t’nnnant and John George, and were at work on the building at tho time of the accident. The latter’s arm was fractured from the elbow to the wrist, the olbow dislocated and chest injured inter nally. The former escaped with a brok en wrist and dislocated thigh.

Wo learn from the Koine Courier that a barn together with live hundred bushels of corn and a large quantity of fodder wero destroyed by tiro last week on the plantation of the late Col. Francis Irwin in this county. The woods on the oppo site side of of the Coosa river wero on tire, and burning bark or twigs wero borne across by the wind and fell among the fodder and other combustible materi al around the barn. The loss is between three and four thousand dollars. ttmnl Advice from n Veteran Cler gyman. At the Uallimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, the Rev. Thomas Sowell presented a letter from the venerable Joshua Wells, who is now ninety-eight year of age. The letter contains hut mnuy expressions of good will and brotherly love towards the mem bers of the Conference, uud entreats the members to refrain from the discussion of the slavery question, as nothing hut harm to tho church would result from such discussion. The Rev. l>r. Wells is the oldest clergyuiau living. ♦ Uouglit-r,)'. New Switch. The Atlanta Locomotive, speaking of the new switch lately invented by Mr. Dougherty, master machinist iu the Ma con uud Western Rail Hoad shop, says it will prevent a train from running off the track, if, by accident, it should bo placed wrong. The efficacy of it was thorough ly tested in Atlanta on Saturday last. A train was posted back uud forth over it, at the rate of twenty miles an hour, with out its having been moved. This great invention should enrich the inventor, who has supplied a desideratum equaled ouly by the safety valve to prevent explosion of the boiler of a steam engiuc. ■ ■■ ■■■ w Commerce or dir kandwlrli l>l>iiil>. Tho othoiul trade statistics of the Ha waiian Kingdom for the year 1 SMI show a Nourishing foreign commerce. The amount of imports was $1,155,5’>8; exports *981,320. The increase iu the amouut of imports ovrr the previous year is about *4O4,WK), chiefly in the trade with Cali fornia and the Atlantic Btales, Kugland and Qernmny. The value of merchandise received from the lulled States, Pacific side, was *451,873 ; do Atlantic side, *JU3,BB*f, from Ur,-at Britain, *U7't,B66 ; Bremen uud Hamburg, *117,103; China, *43,035. The chief urticle of domestic produce exported was sugar, atuounliug to 1,820,000 pounds. For the current year the exports of this article will prob ably exceed 2.000,000 pound*. - - ♦ ■ “C 11111 l of 111* Ilfi-tflllM III.” The New York Seventh Kegimeut hap, in the person ut a beautiful voting lady, a “Child of thc'Ui i’ituent .** She is the daughter of a deceased otlioer, was edu* cated by the regiment, appears iu beau tiful costume whenever it i, un parod*, accompanies it wherever it goes, and it is said that the soldiers rival each other in their respect and courtesy for her. Tho trade at Charleston and New Orleans, it Is stated, is nearly fifty p, r cent larger than usual this spring, which foot is owing to the abstraction of so much trade from the small jobbers and dealers in New York, Philadelphia and Boiton .—Jialhmvrc Sun. Place of holding Convention, die. Much has been said by Ihc press and correspondents nbout the change of place for holding the Presidential convention It is now too late, if the Executive Com mittee had the power to make the change, which no one will seriously contend they have. The place was designated by the Cincinnati Convention, which aloue pos sessed that power, and the province of the Executive Committee is to carry into effect its action. Much of the dissatisfaction expressed at the prico of hoard iD Charleston, though justly founded, is due to the rival influ ences of other places, while much of it is done for political effect. Prominent among the rival bidders against Charles ton is Baltimore. As too many arrange ments have already been made, and there in no daDgcr any way of such a change, we do not hesitate to say, that Charles ton, even at five dollars per day, would he preferable to the rendezvous of row dyism at half tbe price. We trust, however, that the Hotels of Charleston will, in deferenco to public opinion, reduco their prices to n reason able sum. In any event, we warrant that the private citizens of Charleston will bo true to their antecedents and established fame for generous hospitality. ♦ Cincinnati Home Market. Tho Cincinnati Gazette tays the week ending with the 13th inst., has been a busy one with the horse dealers, not only public but private. Tbe market has been pretty well stocked, but still there has not teen any evidence of stagnation. As usual at this time of the year, there was a large number of buyers iri town, most of whom represented Southern States. The horses most sought after just ill present seetn to he light harness horses uud pairs. One gentleman from l.ouisiana bought during the week, for his own privato stud, two pair of matches, for which he paid $1,125. The Gazette adds, “In our weekly reports of the markets it must he borne in mind by the farmers and drovers generally that the aggregate number of horses which wo publish as sold embraces only those sold at public auction or at. the Sale .Stables ; the privato dealers wo cannot induco to furnish statistics, save in such a manner as to ho of no immediate use. The sales during the week were 810 head, and tho value $82,6811 60.” Perilous Posit lon—Sus,ielislon Over a Blast. Near Dubuque, lowa, last week, a shaft was being blasted through a rock thiriy feet deep. A man tunned Norton, was engaged in drilling, while a companion attended to tho windless and drew him up when tho signal was given. The Her ald says: Having finished a drill, loaded it, and getting ready preparatory to firing the fuse, Mr. Norton commenced picking up his tools, in readiness to ascend. At this moment his foot struck tho caudle, up setting it exactly on the fuse, und in a second it had caught and was fizzing down toward the powder. Mr. Norton immediately commenced calling to the man übovo to pull him up. The latter was at some little distance from Ihc shaft, and did not hear the cry; but, fortunatoly, happening to look in thnt direction, he saw the rope shaking, and thinking thnt he might be wanted, he hastened up. Iu Ihe uexl instance he became aware what was wanted, and immediately commenced hauling up the other The situation of the latter was anything but pleasant— sufficient time seemed to his imagination to have elapsed for the fuse to burn the pDwisr, !*d ho ntorawtarlly oyj'oct?'.? to bo blown out of tho shaft. The man at the windlass tnnde super human off or s, and had hauled the other within some ten feet of the mouth, when the handle of tho windlass bloke! For tunately, Mr. Norton caught a foothold on the projecting shelf, and thereby saved himself from falling to the bottom. Hut tho position was anything hut desirable, as ho was iu no way protected front the effects of the explosion, while it was only hy superhuman efforts that ho kept him self from falling from the narrow stand ing place. There was no way to got out, and ho was sure to be riddled with the shower of rocks that would rise from bo low. Thus he stood momentarily expect ing that the terrible death would meet him—stood tlius in agony which must be imagined, as it is too strong for descript ion. Ilow long the time was ho did not know, but it seemed ages rather than seconds, until asufficicnt time had elapsed to introduce the hope thnt the blast would not explode. This proved eventually to he tho case, although he probably suffered a dozen deaths before the fact became ap parent. It utmost seems miraculous that it did not; lint such most fortunately proved to he tho case, and Mr. Norton escaped a death almost too horrible to think of. — A Con.tailin'. Kit urn. A few years ago, there lived iu the neighboring county of Cass, a lialiii', who became enamoured of a young lady in bis bailiwick, aud made proposals of mui-- ringe, which were uoceptcd. ltut when the subject was broached lo her “fond parient,” he most postively refused his consent, aud prohibited any farther com luuuicallou between the couple. ltut “Villikius” was not to be bullied so easi ly. lie contrived to have a stolen inter view with his “dear Dinah” aud a runa way maich was planued. lie immediately procured his License and ul midnight, repaired to the appointed place of meet ing, under her wiudow. In the meantime, however, the “parient” discovered the plot, and looked up his disobedient daugh ter. After waiting a reasonable length of time, the truth began to break in upon the “lovyers” mind, and ho departed. The next morning the old man found un der his door the marriage license, with the following cutry upon it: “Duo search made aud no properly found whereon to levy this /*’ _fii Tina the 117th day of Oct , 1857. ULLIEINS, L. C.” —/lowi Cvuritr. ♦ —— I'nlittm Sleeitiig, We learn from the Pittsburg Chronicle, that for some lliu, past a house of ill-fame has annoyed the cilii.us of a village ou the line of (lie Cleveland and Columbus rail road, and it was determined that the house should be broken up. Ou Thurs day night the Marshal of the village made a descent upon the house, took th* iu mate* in custody, and on .Monday morn ing they were takeu before a magistrate tor examination. There were three girls among the prisoners, and as the rf* of the magistrate fell upon one of them lie grew deathly pale and hastily adjourned the court. Among those wretched aud abandoned girls he recugnilvd the once fair leature, of his own daughter! Sever al years before, while attending a female Seminary in an Eastern State, she had eloped with a worthless fellow, and the lather had never heard of her or seen her until that terrible morning. Deserted by her husband, *hc adopted a life of pros titution and found her way tu the West. Her father, unknown to her, moved lo the West and settled in the village above al luded to. . • e~ Ji't i u VYalkke la our agent In Clil.ton, A 0., to r.c.iv. .übecrlplion, end contract for advarttetag TELE <3- IFtAIPIPTIC.

Nf,w Orleans, March 20.—Eato advi ces from Mexico Btato that Miramon com menced the seige of Vera Cruz on the 6th inst. On the oth, two steamers appeared before the city, showing no colors. The United States war vesaol, Saratoga, with detachments from the Savannah and I’rcble, in the steamers Indianola and Wave, were ordered to proceed to the an chorage of tho above mentioned steamers, in order to ascertain their diameter. Upon nearing the anchorage, off Anton Ligardo, one of the strange stcumers moved off, whoreupon a shot was fired to bring her to; and the Indianola sent to overhaul her. The Indianola’s hail was answered by a shot from the guns of tho steamer Mi ramon, together with a volley of musket ry. Whereupon tho Saratoga fired a broadside, and the action became general. Commodore Marin and his men were tak en prisoners, and lire now on board of the I’reble. Miramon had paid fifty-five thousand dollars for the two vessels. Commodore Marin’s steamers passed by all the foreign squadrons, and by the castle of San Juan D’Ulloa, without hoist ing a flag, although ordered to do so by a shot from tho castle, as well as by other signals. Tho French, Spanish and Eng lish vessels seemed to tako no notice of the strange steamers, or of tho absence of a national flag on each of them. The Saratoga, towed by (he Indianola, look Commodore Marin completely by surprise. The engagement took place by moon light, and the steamers endeavored to es cape, but failed in the attempt. Three Americans were wounded—ono mortally. The Mexican loss is reported as fifteen killed, and thirty wounded. When the action commenced, Marin hoisted tho Spanish flag. The prisoners taken corroborate the report that the two steamers cleared from Havana as merchantmen, and that the Mexican flag was hoisted only after they left that port. At the same time they al so mounted six guns each. secono dispatch. Nf.w Orleans, March 21.—Marin’s steamer returned the fire of the Saratoga, and tried to escape. The Indianola pur sued the Gen. Miramon, the latter fired upon her, which was returned, and board ed the Miramon at the pout of the bayo net. A portion of the Indianola’s deck was carried away by shot ; the Miramon ran aground. The Saratoga brought the Marquez to. Tho Picayune is informed by French prisoners on board the Prizes, that the fighting was dono principally by officers, who were obliged to charge and tilfcguns, assisted only by Mexican officers from shore. The two steamers liud two hun dred and fifty men aboard; killed and wounded, forty ; the former were thrown overboard. The Wavo and Indianola each had eighty men. The first engineer of the Marquez, an American, was killed. Com. Turner arsked Marin why he fired on American vessels without provocation ; Marin replied thut the men controlled ; he knew the nationality of the Saratoga, and understood her signals, but the men fired contrary to his orders. Tumor re plied, you are responsible for tho outrage. It is stated that tho expedition cost $300,000, mostly furnished at Havana by Government, in accordance with a secret article of the Almonte Treaty. Miramon notified foreign vossels, that ho would commence the bombardment of Vera Cruz on the 13tli, and would not bo responsible for damage done to shipping. On the night of tho 13th tho officers on deck of the steamer Miramon heard heavy eaunouadiug iu the direction ofVeraCruz. Six mortars, six twenty-four pounders and two thousand stand of small arms were captured with the two steamers ;*! they were worth stio,ooo. On tho third day out, the steamers broke down and put into Sissal; the ma terials wero stowed away below, out of sight of the men who were forced into ser vice, and ignorant of tho destination of the expedition. The New Orleans Delta publishes the details of negotiations between the Brit ish and Mexican governments. Lord John Kussell proposes an armistice, gen eral amnesty, and religious toleration ; if this proposition was declined, Euglaud must demand from both parties full in demnity due English subjects.
