SAVANNAH AND AUGUSTA. THE STEAMBOAT COMPANY OF GEORGIA, IN ADDITION to Tkree Steam ers formerly composing their line, have recently built the very light draught Iron steamer, DAVID L. ADAMS, of great capacity and power, (making her trips in 24 to 30 hours,) thus securing great dispatch and unequalled facilities for the transportation of Goods, at very low rates, to the interior of Georgia, South Carolina, Ten nessee, and Alabama, in connection with the Geor gia, Western and Atlantic, and Tennessee Railroads, All Goods will be forwarded without commissions; also, Produce from the Georgia Railroad ; expenses on which will be paid and collected at Savannah, from consignees, or from vessels by which shipped, when required. The D. L. Adams will run in connection with the Steamships Florida and Alabama, thus ensuring the tran-mission of Goods from New York to Augusta, in sto 7 days. Bills of Lading should accompany goods by Steamships. Particular attention should be observed in direct ing Bills of Lading; many now direct “ Steamboat Agent,” “Steamboat Company,” &c. f and as there are several Companies, this creates detention , and much confusion ; shippers by tins Company should therefore direct Merchandize from the INTERIOR to JOHN B. GUIEU, Agent, Augusta, and from SEA WARD, with Bills Lading, to SAMUEL M. POND, President, Savannah. N. B,—A reduction on freight tariff has been made to take effect from this date. DIRECTORS.

I ■ .. ~-=rr: jj The Paris correspondent of the London Times, in giving a description of the recent | tour of the President of France thus describes the illumination of the stupendous Cathedral at Btrasburg. “ About half past ten o’clock a small opening was seen amongst the clouds in the distant and a gentle streak of mild light show ed that the moon was about to rise. At this moment the point of light which was observed on the very summit of the spire of the Minis ter, became larger and brighter, and in a few ! seconds a burst of pure dazzling light broke I over the city, and as soon as the eye was able to endure the splendor, a vision t>f beauty arose upon it which far surpassed all it had as yet beheld. You are aware that the spire of the Cathedral of Strasburg is the highest in the world, rising 474 ft. above the pavement, 25ft. higher than the great pyramid of Egypt, and 140 feet higher than St. Paul’s. This wonderfnl structure is one one piece of airy open work, and thestone work is so complete ly apart, the pillars supporting it all the way up so thin, and the fret work so delicate and yet so distinct, that the eye can see through it as through the finest lace. With its tracery so elaborate, rising in a net work of detached ar cades and tiny pillars, it looks like a rich open screen, or marble woven into the most grace | ful forms to cover the gigantic mass beneath it. In a few seconds from the bursting of the ball of light that had hitherto been stationary at the very point of this masterpiece of art, the whole of the interior grew gradually into a haze of radiance, and then blazed out into one sheet of dame that assumed successively every color of the rainbow. The rich crimson blaze was the most brilliant that can be imagined ; and when it assumed the more intense glow of flame, yon might fancy it was some volcano whose sides, unable to restrain the terrible ele ment, that raged within it, had suddenly burst and you beheld through the interstices the bil lows of fire in all their fury. The shafts, the pillows, the arches, the tracery, the whole ol the ornaments ofthe spire were as plainly vis ible in all their detail, as if you were standing close to them ; and in the interior you behold . moving about human figures, who appeared to glide along a plain of light, which when played on by the night air, reflected at each moment a new variety of glory. From the summit ofthe spire and each of the four tow ers lower down, shot forth balls of flame, that gave out the most dazzling lights, while the interior varied each moment in color. This wonderful display lasted until about 11 o’clock when, after one last gush of light from beneath the cross on the very top of the spire, and another still more brilliant from the interior the whole sunk into darkness,” American Manufactures in Canada. —VV# learn from the Montreal Herald of the 12th ■ net., than on the day previous, an extensive sile of staple dry goods, directly imported from the manufacturing districts of New England, took place at that city. They were sold at auction, and one of the largest com panies ever assembled there, including pur chasers from the towns and country, and even Upper Canada, competed for the articles. The bidding is represented as having been verv spirited, and upwards of six hundred packages, realizing from £IO,OOO to £ll 000, were disposed of. It is the first sale of the kind ever made in that market, and the pros pect is said to be, that large quantities of American fabrics of the same kind will conti nue to be sent thilber. The Virginia Convention.—The Rich mond Enquirer classifies the delegates chosen to the Convention as follows: 81 Democrats, 54 Whigs—majority 27. While all are in favor of reform, some go much further in their views than others; but there is, the Enquirer says, an overwhelming majority in favor of decided reforms. Upon the question, the 59 delegates from the two western divisions are all. no doubt, in favor of the white side. The parties are estimated to stand divided in Convention: Mixed basis, 72 ; White basis, G 3. Mummy Wheat. —An English paper says : There is now flowering in the garden of the Prince’s Park a very fine yucca gioriosa. There is also growing there some mummy wheat. It has seven ears or more on one stalk, similar to that described in Pharaoh’s dream, (Genesis xli: 5 ) The parent grains from which it was raised were taken out of a mummy, in the Belfast museum, five or six years ago. How surprising that the principle of life should thus be preserved two or three thousand years ! How interesting that we should thus have brought into life again the kind of wheat grown in the days of Joseph and Pharaoh, three thousand five hundred years ago ! Ballon Ascension —Snow Storm. —On Saturday afternoon Joshua Pusey ascended I with a balloon from Reading. Pennsylvania. He started at half-past four o’clock, and de scended at Haddington, a few miles west of the Schuylkill river, about half-past seven. He says that during bis voyage, and when at an I altitude of two miles, he was overtaken in a I cqow storm, and, what was strange to him, and vill perhaps be so t> every body, was the lact hat the snow flakes ascended. From Diceens’ David Copperfielm.— “She lied,” said Polly, “and was never seen again, or she was buried in the ground where the rees grow.” “The cold ground !’ said the ihild, shuddering again. “.No, the warm ;round,” returned Polly, “where the ugly Id le seeds are turned into beautiful flowers, aria vhere good people turn into angels, and fly way to heaven.” _ SUGAR. m BBLS* Stuart’s Steam Refined SUGAR At) 25 do. do.
