D Alt IE IST HBRAtD. Tuesday ?i<>rnini;< July 93, INSO. PUBLIC MEETING. At a meeting held on the Pth inst. at the Court House in this city, for the purpose of taking into Consideration the propriety of constructing a Rail Road from the Ocmulgee to the Flint River, the fk lowing resolution was passed : 1| R-solred, That a committee of ten be appointed to notify the citizens of this end the adjoining coun ties, that an adjourned meeting will be held at the Court House in this city, on Tuesday the 23d inst. at 11 o'clock, and to request their attendance. Gen. Gaines has written a second letter to the edi tors of the New Orleans Bee. He seems to think the war might have been concluded long ago, if the gov ernment had constructed a railroad thro’ East Flori da, with float’ and hospitals and batteries. ArrivedSchr. PruisillaEldridge. Darien. The 1). had orders’ to proceed to Darien for a cargo of lumber, but not being able to procure it, re turned yesterday, HHh and wilt take in a car go from the mill at this place. The above paragraph appeared In the Bruns wick Advocate of Saturday last. We should not have noticed it had it not contained a mis representation of facts. The schooner arrived here some days ago and the dipt, was in font ed that he could procure any quantity of lumber at either of life mills in thisviciniiy. The Do boy mills particularly have a large quantity of lumber on hand, rising upwardsof three hun dred thousand feet and we are told it isof a very supcriorqualily—betterlumber has never been I sawed in the Southern country. If the Dru- i isilla, had droptdown she could have procured her cargo without atty delay. in the Advocate is calculated to give the im.- pression that no lumber can be procured in this market—when the very reverse is the fact. There is always a supply of lumber at the Do- ! boy mills, and if the Druisiila had gone there she could have been loaded and on her hotne tvard passage ere this. We ask the Advocate to correct its statement in its nest number. Fatning an Enrroß.—Our neighbor of the Bruns wick Advocate is one of the tackiest fellows in exist ence. Re and the following from his paperof Saturday last: “ We acknowledge the receipt oftteveral substan tial presents from our friends—one in the shape of a tine cow and coif —another of from which we intend to have aeouple of hams for our next Christ mas dinner,equal to .Messrs. Roloson’s last. These, to say nothing of the mellons and other luxuries of the season, we have received, arc enough to satisfy our brethren of the press, that the citizens of Glynn ure not unmindful of the printer—and for which sub stantial tokens of good feeling the donors have our best thanks and kind wishes.” This is patronising an editor in the true meaning of the word. We almost envy the present of the cow and calf, but as respects the pig, we should have : declined receiving it ; for lately wc have eaten so much pork that the bristles almost grow on our back, and in fact we liaveto blush whenever welooka hog in the face. The pig the Advocate speaks of, is of the improved breed introduced into Glynn county. They have a machine in Brunswick which takes the kinks out of pigs tails It is considered of great ad vantage to that animal, particularly where flyes are numerous, giving them a better sweep with their tail. We’ll take one of the hams next Christmas, Mr. Advocate, if you say so. Yellow Fever in New York.—TheNkwYohk Herald ofthe 13th inst* says: Loekntan, the pilot, , who died on Wednesday last, of the yellow fever, contracted the disease on lamril the C. Colon, recent ly from Havana. It was a confirmed though sporadic i case, and the body turned black in ten minutes after j the lastbreath left it. The young man’s family, to- J gether with another pilot—who showed symtoms of the contagion—have been removed to Staten Island, and the house in which he died thoroughly cleansed. There are now five cases at quarantine ; that may recover or may not. Rail Road Accident.—Oa Saturday night about 12 o’clock, as the train of passenger cars on the Geor gia Rail Road were returning to this city, the loco motive struck theendofa bar of iron which had be come loose and was thrown off the road ; no person whatever was injured by the accident. The passen gers were compelled to remain in the cars all night, and reached the city yesterday between twelve and j one o’clock, P. M. 7’he accident occurred about ; fifty four miles from Angusta.— Sentinel of yesterday. At the celebration at Providence, R. I. tvventytwo j officers and soldiers of the Revolution were preseut, j the honored guests of the city. The Journal contains a list of the names and ages of these worthies the youngest of whom is 69, and the oldest 92 years. 1 The festivities of the day were dosed by a beatrtiful display of fireworks. The Indians. —The Tallahassee Star of the 10th inst. says—“We learn upon good authority, that an Indian negro has been captured, and brought into Fort Andrews, whose disclosures with regard to the Indians are any thing but favorable towards their abiding the recent truce. This negro states, that he has lately been with three different parties of Indi ans, consisting in number of from 30 to 200; and that they are all busily engaged in cultivating large crops of corn ; and he hits heard them say distinctly that they would not make peace with the white people, but as soon as they had gathered their crops, intended to continue hostilities more fiercely than ever. Os this we can entertain not the shadow of a doubt. Some of the Indians in East Florida may abide the truce ; but that the main body of them will, we have never believed, and especially that portion west of the Su wanne. Hostilities frm a large portion of the Indiansmay be looked fcJfevery day ;and prepara tions for defence should be made accordingly. Let not our fit the country, put any confidence in India** Hostilities having ceased.” The Yellow Fever at New York is among the ship ping—brought no doubt from, the West Indies. It is said by the American to be also on board the British sloop of war Buzzard, which captured the Yankee : 1 vers.

Mr, Editori 1 perceive bytha last Herald, that a eorres pondant tins brought forward the nanleofCol. 1 C. 11. Hopkins, ns a suitable candidate to rep sent this county in the Senate, at its next . es i sum. I nin much gratified to find that some 1 of our citizens have aroused from their appa rent lethargy, and in season, are disposed to bring forward the names of suitable gentlemen to represent old Mclntosh County in the next legislature. The session will be one of un doubted interest, ami many measures of great importance will be introduced to that body for action, which will more or less effect ottr coun ty ; it is a duty we owe ourselves to be well •represented. The spirit of party which for several years has thrown its baneful influ ence into the ballot box, should now be buried, and ns members of one family, unite in sup port of such men who are best calculated to promote the welfare and prosperity of our county. A more suitable candidate could not have been proposed for the Senate. Col. Hop kins’abilities are well known. He has alrea dy represented this county in the Legislature and gained for himself, and his constituents much credit. I hope, therefore, he will con sent to be a candidate, and from the senti ments expressed by the people, since lie has been proposed for that office, believe he will be elected without opposition. Mclntosh. For the Herald. Mr. Editor: The fall elections arc near at hand, and as yet no individuals have been proposed to rep resent Mclntosh County in the Legislature. 1 was pleased with the suggestion made by a correspond ant of the last Herald proposing Col. Hopkins for the Senate, and presume he will, if he consents to be a candidate, receive the undivided support of the citizens of this county. An independent ticket should be formed, without reference to party, and the most suitable men brought forward. We want vupvuuonltttii'oe of Lnitu ii nhililv nnfl of character to represent us, who will advocate the interests of our county, and the city'of Da rien. By supporting Darien we advance llte prosperity of the county. The afl'iirs of our Bank will no doubt be brought to the notice of the Legislature, and it is an imperious 'duu we owe the merchants to send representut v/.swho are acquainted with Banking, to advite her cause. Coder this impression, I take the lib erty to suggest the name of E. S. Rp.es, as a suitable candidate for the House of Represen tatives. A. For the Herald. Mr. Editor: f observe that the Georgian is displeased with your remarks on the subject of Ratifica tion, and expresses regret at their uppearan ce in the Journal. It says, the delegates from .Mclntosh County supported Reduction, and voted for the amendments to a man, and that it is incumbent on them to support Ratifi cation. This is very true, they voted for the amendments and supported Reduction, and could it have been effected on a plan disused of party juggling, would have taken great in ler'-st in the support of the measure, but as it is now, one of the gentlemen I think at least will be luke warm on the subject, and permit the citizens of Mclntosh county, to be governed by the dictates of their own judgments, in the matter. The delegates have but three votes iri the county, and I ant sure will not attempt to influence more in favour of Mr. William Springer's plan. A LOOKER ON. £T Distressing news lias been received in town (says the St. Augustine Herald of the sth inst.) that Capt. Mitchell, and Lt. Pugh with 12men of the Ist Infantry, died lately of poison at a station near Deadmarr’s Efay. The cause was subsequently dis covered to have been a keg of white lead thrown down the well. The editor of the Picayune says that his wash erwoman has jSwar(ji(f6((absconded) with twelve of his shirts. How upon earth could an editor raise so many shirts 1 It is believed from the newspaper accounts we re eeivefrom all parts of the country, thatthe Fourth of July Was more generally celebrated throughout the United States this year than it has been for some years past. The Pennsylvania House of Delegates has passed a law to establish an asylum for the insane poor of that Commonwealth. The author of that bill, like the estimable Delegate from Baltimore, whs advoca ted so feelingly tfte establishment of such an institu tion in the State of .Maryland, will receive countless blessings in after ages for his disinterested humani- ! ly - Mr. Lyscom Pruce, well known in Boston as one of the best and most extensive ma-nofiacturcrs of soda arwf mead, was instantly killed - on the 4th by the ex plosion of a mead fountain which he was charging with go*. A Valuable Cow. — The Pittsburg Advocatesays: , “We know of a cow owned two miles from this city,- which is now givingl46 quarts of rich milk per week feeding only in pasture; but the beauty of the matter is, that she is vulgarly native, raised in this western country, and without a drop of foreign blood in her veins—and then again she cost but twenty-five dol- I lars, and would scarcely be valued higher in mar ket.’’ MCINTOSH BDXAM>, Health of Savannah. —We are pleased to assure our absent renders (says the Savannah Georgian of the 11 lit inst.) that Siivamiahcontinuesvery healthy. There have been no white interments for the week ending 9th inst. and he Ward Committees yester day reported very favourably. there not being tt case of fever noticed by them. From the Toronto Examiner. Elopement and duel.— The lovers of scan dal,—ami we nfe not without a few in thiscitv, —have had ample food during the past week, to gratify their vitiated appetites. It appears that an officer, belonging to one of the regi ments now stationed here, nml a barrister’s lady, suddenly disappeared. Diligent search was immediately made by Mr. Mayor Powell and other relatives ofthe lady, but without success. Hite, however, returned to her moth er’s residence, after an absence of hut two or three days. The lady is highly connected and has three children. We have since heard that a duel took place on Thursday lust, between 1 ohn Sttmrt. Esq. of London, barrister at law, ai.d brother-in-law to Sir Allan McNub, and Lieut. Grogan of the 82nd Regiment, which lias lately removed from London to this city. Mr. Stuart fired twice witout effect, Mr Gro gan discharging his pistol in the air, after which the parties left the ground, and it is said that \ farthersatisfaction will besought in the Queen’s j bench. We are informed that Mr. Stuart has laid his damages at £t(XHI, and that a judge’s order has been issued holding Mr. Grogan to bail for £SOO. New Orleans, July ?. —'Ve copy the following from the 7’imcs of Saturday event ing. The intelligence appears to dircC aml explicit to admit about of its Cor rectness. The death of Mr. Moore will not only be deeply regretted by his numer ous friends who admire him for his talents, find esteemed him for his noble and manly qualities, but will be felt ns a severe loss to the whig cause, of which lie was in his capacity as editor of a political paper, the ardent, hold, able and indefatigable advo cate. Deadly Encounter. —We learn from a passenger on board the steamer Rodney, arrived this morning from Alekatuliia, that J. W. Moore, editor and proprietor of the lied River Whig, was shot dead in the street, in that city, on the Ist inst. A gen tleman named King llolson connected with the office of the Republican flt that place was the author of this horrible deed, There had been for some time a most bit ter controversy between these two prints, relative to a publication in the Whig, of a letter reflecting on Mr- alsrtin Gordon of this city—a controversy which finally led to a challenge on the part of llolson, and i which Moore refused accepting on the ground that llolson was not a gentleman, llolson had sworn revenge, und armed himself for the purpose of shooting Moore on sight. They met, as it appears, on the Ist inst. when llolson first snapped a gun at his antagonist, and afterwards shot him down with a pistol. Moore was also armed, but drew no weapon, and died in a few min utes after being shot.” It is stated on the authority of a letter from Opelousas that a duel was to have ta ken place between the Hon Rice Garland, the Congressional Representative from the Our readers will remember that a quarcl arose between these gentlemen some weeks since at a trial in court, during which Mr. Garland struck Mr. King. The parties, says the Times, had already left Opelousas, and were to fight on the other side of the river. The Detroit Free Press estimates the num ber of barrels of Flour shipped from De troit this season at 100.000 —from Toledo 85,000, making the exports from the eas tern side of the Peninsula worth 41,000,- 000 ! The amount sent clown the St. Jo sephs, Kalamazoo and Grand Rivers, and conveyed otherwise to Lake Michigan, is estimated at equal to 70,000 barrels, worth 4500,000. The Free Press thinks it a safe estimate to say that the surplus ofthe last year’s harvest may be valued at two mil lions of dollars ! From the Federal Union. Messrs. Editors. —Some months since I ad dressed you very briefly in relation to the set tlements m idebetween the Augusta flanks and the interior or country Banks, and pointed out some of the evils that would arise under this state of things. The Augusta Banks have con tinued to pursue the country banks with the vigilance of the eagle, together wit’., the bro kers, who, following in the footsteps of those institutions, have returned home to the country in titutions all or the most of the circulating medium ofthe country, and are still pursuing the country banks to the great detriment of the bone and sinew of the country, the plant ing interests. The Augusta banks are some thing like the dog in the manger, who would not eat the hay himself or let the ox cat it. They will not discount themselves, and the country banks cannot or dare not, because their bills are returned upon them in a few dirges tor specie or exchange by the banks and brokers in Augusta. How are the people in the country to pay their debtsorscll their produce, without accommodations from the banks? The country banks are willing to discount and accommodate, if the Augusta banks would let them alone, f hope the next Legislature will do something with those rtistituSions W Augus ta, and the brokers, because they have diverted the charter for which’ they were intended l when granted, and made brokerage shops of them. These banks and brokers are now a curse to the country instead of a benefit. Sunday School Celkbrvtjon. From the Reading Journal. At least one thousand children belong ing to the Luthern, Get man Reformed, En glish Presbyterian, Episcopal, Catholic* arid Universalist Churches, with their teach ers and friends, met though in separate bodies, to do honor to the national festival. Agreeable to arrangement the school* attached to the English Presbyterian Chafe!*, met about >0 o’clock, grid marched to the lot appropriate for the purpose. Several appropriate odes were sung and address delivered, after which, cakes, lem onade, and more substantial refreshments were distributed in liberal quantities. The children numbered about five hundred, were then permitted to amuse themselves in their own way. Young and old joined in’ the sports and seemed equally gratified. A number ofthe Philadelphia Greys left their encampment in the adjacent lot and parti cipated in the amusements, much to the happiness, as we thought, of ail parties. We will venture to say that not the least pleasent part of the time spent by them in Reading, was while attending the Sunday School Celebration, A variety of exercises kept up the inter est ofthe day aridabout 4 o’clock all return -1 ed, much pleased with the manner in which they had spent the “ Fourth of July. Natchez, July I. The Woodvillc Af fray Again. —Wt regret to state that this unhapny affair has been the occasion of more bloodshed. A duel took plant be tween Henrv A. Mdore and Fielding Dnvis, on the 27th June, on the Lousiana side of the line, about ten miles below Woodvillc, which resulted in the death of the former. They fought with rifles at ■ present; dis tantancc 50 yards. Mr. Davis shot Moore in the left side the hall entering about half nn inch below the top of tile hip bone. Mr. .Moor died in a few minutes, lie fell without being able to shoot at nil. Mr. Da vis tired immcdiutely after the word one. Mr. Moore challenged Mr. Davis, with out wailing for the latter to reply to his (Mr. M.’s) publication in the newspapers, It is but justice to Mr. Davis to state that he was very reluctant to accept the chal lenge, and even up to the lime of his ap pearing on the ground, declared that he was forced into a measure which he deplor ed and condemned, and expressed his wil lingness to accede to any honorable terms of accommodation; but the opposition par ty was determined that the fight should take place, and Mr. Dnvis, rather than en dure the sneering taunt of cowardice from those who could not appreciate his motives, yielded his better feelings and judgment to the fiendish dictates ofu false honor. We also regret to state that Mr. Leigh, who was severely wounded in the former affray, is rapidly sinking and cannot, it is feared, survive, many days. Front all that wc can gather frottl en quiry front various sources, we would conclude that public opinion in Wilkinson county Is strongly in favor of Mr. Dhvls, and has been with him throughout the whole affair.

Murder of John Ridge and his Father , By a letter received in this city yesterday, from one of our cit izens at Fort Gibson, Arkansas, we arc In formed that about a week since the celebra ted chief John Ridge and his father, two of the most prominent person ir. the nation, were most brutally and savagely murdered, and that John Ross, tllfi lender ofthe op position party lias, hi Consequence thereof, been compelled to take ftp his quarters at Fort Gibson for personal security. From the same source we also learn that a Mr Wright and foftf Children Were inhu manly murdered, about the 16th June, near Cave Hill, Washington county, Ark.* (of money, as it was supposed.
