February 19,1559 SCJ- The absence of the editor during the past week is offered as an apology for any im perfections which may be discovered in to days impression. o Stkimboit Accmr.s'T.—The Steamer J Stone i Capt. Mendall, fr* m Savannah to tliia port, and the Steamer Oeamulgee, Capt. Blankenship hence to Sa vannah, came in contact on the roerhtng of Wednes day last, in Wilmington Sound, near Rondy Marsh, a little before daylight,by whirl, the wheels and guides were torn off the J. Stone; with considerable other damage. The Oeamulgee experienced but little damage. The J. Stone was towed to Savannah by the Oeamulgee. Since the above was in type, Capt. Blankenship, lias handed us the following: On Wednesday morning, Feb. 13th at 5 o'clock, the Steamer Ocamutgee, bound to Savannah, heavily laden with cotton, the fog being very dense, heard tlie bell of II steam boat—the Pilot instantly rung his bell to slow the t-ngine. Immediately after saw the light of the J. Stone close to us—rung the bell to atop and back the engine, which was instantly done When the boats came in contact, the engine of tlic Oeamulgee was working back. The .Stbamer Anson.— The Steamer Anson, Capt. Baden, in the employ of the Govern ment, broke her shaft and sustained some other damage on Tuesday last, near St. Catharine’s Island, while on her way from Savannah to Black Creek, with a cargo of government stores. The Anson has been towed to Savan nah by the. steamer Oeamulgee, to be repaired. TO TIIE PATRIOTIC YOUNG MEN OF tuk second regiment. Front the following letter, received by Col. CnAßt.es 11. Hopkins, from Gov. Gilmer, it will be perceived that the commander in chief, requires of this Regiment, a company of sixty 4Hfttinted men, to operate in conjunction with troops from other sections of the State against the hostile Indians in the Okefenokee Swamp. It is his wish to make up the number with vo lunteer*, but he is ordered, if none willro/vn t, er to fill his requisition by draft. It is only in this emergency, that he has been constrain ed again, in the discharge of his official duties, to call oil you for aid to repel the midnight in cursions of the most daring foe that has ever invaded our State. For three years a war of i pillage and slaughter, has raged in an adjoin ling Territory, with sanguinary vengeance hitherto unequalled by barbarians of any age dr country. Companies from every section of the State —armiesof the Lukin, have inarched against them—millions of dollars have been expended by the government tnfclrive them from their hammocks, and still the shrill war ‘whoop is heard on our own frontier, eluding, openly defying a flag, which has twice stood alone against the haughtiest power of Europe, and which now c ommands the worlds admiration. We are aware, that there is hut little inducement to stimulate men unaccustomed to the privations and hardships of an Indian campaign, to volunteer to encounter the ene my—hut when we reflect on the misery, which a continuation of their depredations may bring on our citizens, and perhaps on those who are near to us, wc should wave all selfish conside rations, and respond without a muriner, to the call of our country. Where is there a young man in the Second Regiment, who would not endure the keenest pangs of hunger and fa tigue, to defend the spot where his mother bore him, and gain the applause and admiration of his State ? Not one. A list for subscribers, will be in readiness at this office. All who feel inclined to volunteer are invited to call. Hannabal passed the Alps; Ceasar crossed the Rubican; Napoleon forced the Bridge of Lodi. And why not the farmers and mer chants of Darien, cover themselves with glo ry, by wallowing in the hogs of the Okefeno kee ! Execltivf. Department. I MiUcdgevilU, lltA, Feb. 1839. J Sir: I have authority from the Secretary of War ,to raise a regiment of five hundred mounted Volun teers, for the service against the Indians in the Oke fonokee Swamp, or seven hundred and fifty men to 1 be composed of seven Companies of Infantry ; and three of mounted rnen. lam anxious to avoid rai sing troops by draft, and will therefore accept the servicesoffive hundred mounted Volunteers, or eight Companies of sixty men each if they can be had in time. As the draft if made will be from the Regi ment under your command tmon others, will you inform me whether a Volunteer Company can be raised front it in lieu thereof. Very R-rpectfully Yours GEORGE R. GILMER ,Col. Ciiabi.es H. Hopkins, Darien. Shocking Suicide and pbob able MunDEß. A horrible scene occurred at nine o’clock yes terday morning in the porter house kept by Mr. Bernard. 221 Fulton street, New York. A young Greek named Pietro Paoloquai itteuse who boarded at the house had fallen in Jove with a German girl, named Josephine Jarmann. living at the same place as a servant, “'and not mei ting with a reciprocal affection, had it is said, sometime since threatened to ti take her life, but afterwards promised not to carry the threat into execution. At the time mentioned, however, lie found the unforiunate g*rl in her chamber, fired a pistol ball into her sfde, and upon some of the inmates of the house rushing into the room he discharged the contents of another pistol into his own head and died immediately. The ball entered the right side of his victim and lodged in the low er part of the body, where it is found impossi ble to extract it. She is of course in most ex cruciating paiti with very slight prospect of re covery. France and Mexico, —From the annexed par agraph w hich wc copy from the National In telligence, it will be seep that all the difference between France and Mexico have been amica bly suggested through the intervention of the British Government. Washington, Feb. 0. Important ami Acceptable News.—Ooqitno dore Bechamel, of tin French armed steamer Veloce, arrived in this city on Thursday eve ning front Baltimore, accompanied by Captain De Challie, his first officer. The Veloce arri ved at Baltimore on Thursday in Ji re days from llavomm. The Commodore, when lie entered the Chesapeake, intended to proceed up the Potomac direct to Washington, hut on ascending the river some thirty or forty miles, found his progress arrested by the ice, when lie put about and proceeded to Baltimore. But for this impediment we should have found a foreign steam-frigate probably anchored oil’ our navy yard, two hundred and fifty miles inland, before any one was aw are that such a ship was on our cost. We stale this fact in conncx ion with the rapid passage of the I ‘dace from llavanna, to mark the important revo lution which has been, suddenly ns it were created in naval operations by the all power ful agency of steam —a revolution which, by placing Europe, and America, particirallv, within less tliun half the distance which formerly separated them from each other more deeply affects our own country and its position in regard to foreign states than anv other. By obliterating so much of the vast distance which separated us from the Eastern continent, it almost iqcorpoT rates us in the family of European nations. It certainly imparts to us new relations, apd imposes fresh duties; and it .would argue more of madness than of thoughtlessness to disregard the lesson which il teaches ns. M e are happy to learn from it gentleman who accoinpanind the French ollicgrs from Baltimore, that hostilities have been termin ated between France and Mexico. Through the intervention anti meditation of Admiral Douglas, commanding the British licet on the Mexican coast, terms of accommodation have heeq niptrnlly agreed oil by the bclig erents, and hostilities had ceased. The particulars will doubtless reach us before long. Correspondence of the. New York Gazette. Washington, Febuary 7th, 1831). Mr. Clay made a very interesting speech to day, on the subject of abolition. Many pro nounce it one of the best oratorical of his life. Certainly no speech has been delivered at this session, that has been the theme of such gene ral and unqualified admiration. lam aware, however when it comes lobe reduced to words mere words without the voice urn] action of the orator, it will be quite a different thing, though still very good. I hope this speech will be generally circulated, not only for the benefit of the Whig cause which is becoming a little too much blended with abolition, but for the sake of tljc abolitionists themselves, many ofwhom may not be utterly irreclaimable. Mr. Clay shows them the danger and mischief of their course and appeals to their patriotism and humanity to forbear. His appeals to the clerr gy, as the messenger of pease mid good will, and lo the fair sex where warm and impressive. His argument against the power of Congress to interfere with sluyvery in the district was strong and convincing. Hundreds of people were disappointed in heal ing Mr. Clay on this subject—the galleries having been filled at an early hour, in expec tation that lie would speak. It is a pity that lie could not have spoken from the Eastern Portico. I doubt much wether he will speak from that position, but, if lie should may I be theirto hear him. The occasion of this speech which occupied two hours, was the presenta tion by Mr. Clay of ihe remonstrance from citizens of this district against the reception by Congress of petitions for abolishing slavery in the district of Columbia. Mr. Calhoun said a few words cornplimenlory to Mr. Clay's ef fort. He rejoiced, he said, tosee him standing oil such ground, and now he might truly say that he considered Abolitionism at an end in this country. But I reckon Garrison will tell a different story. Fanaticism and treason are not to he put down by the authority of great names. In the House, to-day, the .Select Committee of twenty-six on the subject of the disposition of the public domain, made a report, asking to be discharged from the further consideration of the subject and recommending that no ac tion take place thereon at this session. Mr. Robertson, of Va. moved to recommit the re port witii instructions to the committee to re r pert an act for the distribution of the proceeds of the sales of the public lands among the sev eral states, according to their representation in Congress—the said distribution to commence after the next census, and to he suspended in time of war with any foreign nation, or in case the revenue should, in any year, fall below a certain sum. No decision was made ou this question. Mr. Johnson, of La. presented to-day a very strong remonstrance from thousands of citizens of Louisiana against the encouragement held out by our laws to the emigration of foreign ers. The memoralistg think them a curse to the country—a blight upon its prosperity and morals. The army appropriation bill finally passed the House. General Banking in Georgia. —We have been informed from Milledgeville, that the banking business under the late Jaw, seem ed to be iij quite a flourishing, or rather in creasing condition. Not less than ten or twelve companies are forming, arid rapidly progressing in their preparations to com mence operations. A company had been formed in surnter, one in Early, one in Troup, one Stewart, one Elbert, another in Deeatur, and an individual of our city pro posed going into the business. In Jasper, Coweta, Cherokee, Cass, and DeKalb coun ties, meeting)! have been called to tnakc ar rangements for organizing ascociations. THE SHREVEPORT PREACHER AGAIN,. A Perfect Caleb Quotem. —Our readers may recollect that, some time since, vve published an account of a preacher in the neighborhood of .S’hreveport, who, while “holding forth” un der a tree of a hot Nunday, got so warm that he could not stand it any longer, and finished a short discourse with “Boys it’s too hot to preach, let's all go and liquor.” We understood, yesterday, that he is now regularly ordained, and is a good-hearted, gen erally liked joker, —preaches a good sermon, plays a good game of poker, is an excellent judge of a horse race, has the best fighting chickens of any man in those parts, and lays a Bowie knife across his Bible to keep it spread open. On a recent occasion, between the morning and afternoon service,toe read the fol lowing announcement: “I am requested to state that immediately after service this evening, there will be a race, just back of the church, two mile heats, for a purse of S3O0 —two nags already entered, and I some hopesof another. I trust you will all be there. “N. B. I'm one of the judges.”—.V. O. Pica yune. TUB WOINBBSB OOWNjry Popping the Question. —What a strange thing is acquaintance, said a beautiful girl the other clay to a friend of ours—“a year ago wc had not seen each other—totally a season had rolled its course, bringing hope, happiness, and perchance sorrow to each, without the cognizance of the other; and now we arc so intimate !” Qur friend says she looked so lovely hp could not help pressing her delicate cheek—he asked her if he had aught to do with the happiness of her future. “You are in my dreams of the coming days,” replied she. They are to be married at Christmas, We consider this one of the neatest “poppings of the question” ever heard of, though by the way we think it ought to have happeud in leap year. Died, la tlfls oily, oij Wednesday last, Capt. Adder Wino, a native of Rochester, Mass, about t‘,3 years of age. Capt. W. was much respected and esteem ed. and his decease deeply lamented by n large circle of friends and acquaintances.
