LITTLE NELL. Spring, with breezes, pure and airy, Opened on a little fairy ; Ever restless, making merry ; She with pouting lips of cherry ; Lisped the words she could ftot master; Vexed that she might speak no faster— Laughing, running, playing, dancing, Mischief, all her joys enhancing ; • Full of baby-mirth and glee, Sweet little Nell. Summer came, the green earth’s lover; Ripening the tufted clover— Calling down the glittering showers; Breathing on the buds and flowers ; Rivaling your pleasant May, In a generous holiday ! Smallest insects hummed a tune, Through the blessed nights of June; And the maiden sung her song, Through the day so bright and long— Dear Little Nell. Autumn came ! the leaves were falling— Death, the little one was calling: Pale and wan she grew, and weakly ; Bearing ail her pains so meekly, That to us, seemed still dearer As the trial-hour drew nearer, But she left us hopeless, lonely ■Watching by her semblance only; And a little grave they made her, In the church-yard cold they laid her— Laid her softly down to rest With a white rose in her breast — Poor little Nell! From the N. O. Picayune. ‘2nd inst. Important from the Rio Grande. By the arrival at this port last evening of the steamship Yacht, from Brazos Santiago, we have received dates from Brownsville to the 26th ult. The news is of the most exciting character. The flag of the 15th ult. states that on the eve ning of the 10th ult. a gang of about forty men, consisting of Mexicans ana Indians, attacked a party of seven Americans, who were encamped at a lake called Co > pacuas; five of those at the camp are said to have beeu murdered, and all their property taken into Mexico. Two of the raeu, fortunately, were oa the margin of the lake shooting ducks at the time, and succeeded iu making their escape. Th r ?e robbers and mur derers are said to have crossed the river some forty miles above Brownsville, on Friday, the 7th ult., and a detachment of them openly re crossed it again soon after perpetrating the mur der, bearing with them the right hand of each of their slaughtered victims, while the remainder of the savages coolly encamped on the ground where the Massacre occurred, expecting no doubt another feast ol blood from those whom they deemed absent from the camp, and would probably return unsuspicious of danger. The population of the neighborhood was not only too sparse for resistance, but afraid to ven ture out to buv the dead, after the murderers were gone. The flag contains a letter from Warren Adams, which says that it is understood that these Mexicans and Indians were instructed by the authorities in Mexico to kill and plunder all American citizens near the frontier, and that acting, as they did, under the instructions of the aforesaid authorities, the}- mutilated the bodies of the murdered men. taking the right hand of each to testify that they were entitled to the re ward of thirty or forty* dollars offered by Mex ico Tor each American they murder on the fron tier. Tho Eio Bravo of the ‘2oth says, that the steamer Camanche was again fired into last week, and s oustom-housc officer residing at Rio Grande City, Mr. Brashear, was dangerously wounded. His little sou was also wounded ; and a lady passen ger. Mrs. Rogers, the wife of the murdered man ►spoken of above, who was on her way up tc join her husband, very narrowly escaped a Bimiliar fate. fW The following card, published in the Kio Bravo, , ogives the particulars of the outrage: >Ve, the undersigned passenger - from Browns ville to St. Louis, Edinburg, aim Kio Grande City, oa the steamboat called the Camanche, command edmy Cant. Richard King, and plying on the Kio Grande, to and kom the American towns on said river, txdimcel^A o hereby state, that on Monday, May 17,1852, at a point known by the name of Rancho Santa Anna, on tho Mexican shore, while said boat was quietly and peaceably pursuing her W cou’sc up said river from Brownsville, as aforesaid, *he was fired into from the Mexican shore, while very near the same, by a party of Mexicans, (the exal t number not known,) who discharged some twelve shots, two of which took effect on the per sons of Mr. W. B. Brashear and his sou, a boy of some four years old, and tho balance of different parts of the boat. Mr. Brashear is a revenue officer, stationed at KioGrande City, and was proceeding up the river, accompanied by his family, to resume'the duties of his "office at that place. We further state that there was no cause or pro vocation given by any of the passengers, officers, or crew of said boat, to warrant the outrage thus wantonly committed to a vessel belonging to the United States, and running upon a river free to both nations.

Taylor, Engineer. ~\On the evening of the 14th inst., Mr. Phillip Rogers, a merchant of Rio Graudo City, while standing behind his counter, was stabbed to tho hfeart and killed by a Mexican, who had, ostensi bly. came in to purchase goods. The object of the fellow was, no doubt, to rob the house, as Mr. Rogers was not known to have an enemy in the world. Another Mexican was upon watch outside of the house, but both succeeded in making their escape to tho chapparal. They were discov ered almost in the act, and one of the fellows, iu coming out of the house-brushed against a gen tleman who, hearing the cry of Mr. Rogers hastily run. to his assistance. All efforts to discover aud arrest the assassins have so fur proved abortive. As strange as it may seem abroad, says the Eio Bravo, this is tho tenth murder which has taken place within the last three weeks. For the last two mouths the average has been three killed per week. No roan’s life is safe from these Mexican assassins mr a single hour. It has hc *rae a grave question, what is to be done in this ite c/'tmhgß ) If it should continue, there will notbewi American on the river in six months. ■ Ijpr. G. N. Clark, who recently arrived at Browns rS. ville, from New Orleans, was found dead in old ' Fort Brown, on tho 16th inst., and it was evident from shot and other wounds that he had been murdered. The coroner’s jury returned a verdict —“ that the deceased came to his death by shots fired from a gun or pistol, by some person or per sons unknown.” From the X. O. Picayune, 2d imi. Later from Texas. By the arrival of the steamer Louisiana, Capt. Lawless, we have received our files of Texas papers. The Louisiana brings dates from Galveston to the 28th ult. The accounts from the interior are very favora ble, as to the present slate and future prospects of the corn and cotton crops. Refreshing rains appear to have been felt all over the country. On the last trip of the stca nship Mexico from Galveston to this port, she brought over a man named Dabney, accused of murdering a person in Alabama. Tho Brazos Delta says that he was for cibly wrested from the bauds of the deputy sheriff of Fort Beud county, aud delivered over to the person who had gone from Alabama in pursuit of huxi. Two white men named Charles M. Kingsbury and Robert 11. Morrison, alias Harrison, were ar rested in Houston county, recently, by a Mr. Ken nedy, being charged with stealing two slaves, the property of D. Davis, in Washington county. The negroes were returned to their owner, and the thieves taken to prison. A man named McFall, living on the Salado, near San Antonio, was knocked down and robbed on the evening of the 12th ult., by two Mexicans. The Huntsville Item states that Mr. Tousy, of Cincinnati, is engaged in the construction of a plank road through the Trinity bottom. No loss than two hundred men are now employed in repairing the road about the San Jacinto, aud erecting new bridges. A Mrs. blocum was tried at the late term of the district court, at Bastrop, for the murder of a man named Forbus, and found not guilty. She had shot Forbus on account of the ruin of her daughter. The State Gazette says that a man by the uame of Henry Brown, was taken up in Gillespie county, and carried to Austin for trial, charged with steal ing a negro womaru* two horses, a gun and side saddle, from a gentleman residing iu Hamilton’s Valley. The negro and other property in his pos session were arrested. J. B. Costa, before whom be was brought, declined trying the accused for the want of jurisdiction, the crime having been committed in another countv, and on Monday he was put iu M 8 conveyed to San Antonio for trial before Judge Divine; but the Gazette says a rumor was prevalent next morning that he had broke out of jail and hung himselt! We fear this was a case of lynching. Brown was a deserter from Fort Mason. The people of both the corporation and the county of Victorio have voted almost unanimously to take $50,000 each, of stock in the San Antonio and Gulf Railroad Company. Tho Houston Beacon says a somewhat amusing though rather serious affair occurred not long since near Spring Creek, in tho lower part of Grimes county. Two young men from lowa, who had been peddling about the country, and had realized some 1800 or S4OO, were met by a wag who told them that the country was infested by numerous bands of robbers, and they should be careful how they exposed their cash. This excited their imagina tions, and shortly after they met a respectable citi zen, attired in Texan hunters’ costume, cap, red flannel shirt, tin horn, rifle, &c. Ho inquired if they had seen two young men with whom he had been hunting, and by some means had lost trace of. On receiving an answer in the negative, he left them. As soon as he got out of sight) the peddlers, firmly convinced that he was chief of one of the gangs of robbers, left the road and struck into the woods. They had not gone far before thay came upon another rough-looking customer, one of the companions of the hunter they had previously met. Taking him for a robber, and fearing that he would shoot them if they attempted to retreat, they im mediately drew their revolvers and commenced tiring at him. The hunter retreated, and endeavor ed to explain, but they would listen to nothing, and kept shooting away. He blew his horn for his companion, who came up just in time to hear a ball whistle close by his ear. The hunters, finding re monstrance useless, and being excellent shots, brought the peddlers down the first fire. The matter was then explained, and the hunters con veyed them to a house where their wounds were dressed. The State Gazette learns by a private letter, dated Belton, Bell county. May 18th, that Dr. John W. Coleman, late of Belton, was killed by lightning on the 11th inst., while traveling near the residence of James Ander, Esq., of that county. Mr. G. F. Bartlett, who has been connected with the Boundary Commission, arrived at San Antonio on the sth, twenty-two days frrm El Paso. He re ports no news in addition to that we have already had from that section. From the Baltimore American. THIRTY-FIRST CONGRESS—FIRST SESSION. IN SENATE, Juncß. A message was received from the President of the United States iu reply to a resolution calling for information relative to certain claims upon the government; also, a report from the Secretary of War, relative to the the deepening of the flats of Lake St. Clair. A report also was received from the Secretary of the Navy, stating that tho contract fur removing tho wreck of the Missouri had beeu completed. Mr. Hale presented a petition from Chcming county, New York, setting forth that the fugitive slave law was inhuman, tyrannical and cruel, and praying its repeal. He concluded by moving to refer it to the Judicial Committee. On motion of Mr. Mangum, it was laid on the table. A very large number of petitions in favor of the homestead bill, were presented from different . States. The Missouri railroad bill was fhcu taken up, and the question pending was as to the agreement of the House amendment. Mr. Cooper withdrew his call for the yens and nays, tho amenemout was agreed to, and the bill was passed. The Senate took up the bill to aid in the construc tion of a plank road m the State of Michigan, and after debate it was ordered to be engrossed. A bill authorizing the Secretary of War to issue duplicate laud warrants in certain cases of loss, was then taken up, aud, after a short discussion, was postponed It was agreed that when the Senate adjourn it adjourn to meet on Monday next. 1 Mr. Seward moved that the resolution which he submitted on a former day, calling for tho corres pondence between the Secretary of State and the Austrian Minister be taken up, aud it was adopt ed. The Senate then adjourned. The House was not in session. "Washington, June 4, 1852. The Senate was not in session to-day. HOUSE. Mr. Millson, of Va., moved to re-consider tho vote by which the Virginia military land warrant bill was disposed of; but no action was had. Mr. Stephens, of Ga., moved a call of the House, but as it was evident there could not be a majority, he withdrew his motion. On motion of Mr. Johnson, of Arkansas, the House agreed that when it adjourn, it adjourn to meet on Monday. Mr. Houston, of Ala., moved that the House re solve itself into a Committee of the Whole on the ■ state of the Union. Mr. Millson, of Va., submitted two bills for the relief of widows and of officers of the revolutionary war; which were read a first and second time. Mr. Stanly, ofN. C., introduced a bill to author ize the Secr’ctaiy of the Treasury to deposito with the several States the fourth instalment of deposites of public moneys, directed to be made with such • States by the act of 1836; which was referred to tha Committee on Ways and Means. Mr. Briggs, of New York, presented the memo rial ofWm. 13. Astor and others, for the immedi ate establishment of a Mint iu the city of New Y ork to which-is appended a statement of ihe amount of gold bullion received from California at that port amounting to $94,678,558; which was referred to the Committe of Ways and Means. A motion was then made that the House ad journ ; and the yeas and nays having been ordered, it was negatived—yeas 74, nays 82. There being no quorum present, on motion of Mr. Orr, of S.’C., the House adjourned till Monday. Cure for Hydrophobia.—Mr. James A. Hub bard, of Boone county, 111., in a letter to the St. Louis Republican says : Eighteen years agu, my brother aud myself were bitten by a mad dog. A sheep was also bitten at the same time. Among the many cures offered for the little boys (we wore then ten or twelve years of age) a friend suggested the following which he said would cure the bite of a rattte-snake: Take the root of common upland, "enerally call ed the black ash, peel off the bark, and boil it to a strong decoction ; of this drink freely. While my father was preparing the above, the sheep spoken ofbegau to bo afflicted with hydro phobia. When it had become so fatigued from its distracted state as to be no longer able to stand, my father drenched it with a pint of the ash root to ascertain whether he could depend upon it as a cure for his sons. Four hours after the drench had been given, to the astonishment of all, the an imal got up and wcut quietly with the flock to graz ing. My brother and myself continued to take the medicine for eight or ten days—one gill three times a day. No effects of the dreadful poisou were ever j discovered on either of us. It has been used very j successfully iu suake bites to my knowledge. ----- I The Supreme Court of the State of Texas has decided iu favor of the validity of the charter of the Commercial and Agricultural Bank of Texas, at Galveston. This charter was originally granted by tho Colonial Government of Coahuila «ud Tex as, and confirmed by the authorities of the Repub lic of Texas, The question raised was, whether it was annulled by tho adoption of the State consti tution, which prohibits chartered bunks. The Supreme Court Has decided in favor of the charter. The charter was granted for a term of years from the time when it should go into operation, and it was interrupted at once by these suits. The ques tion recurs whether its time runs from that date or the date of this confirmation, which will make a difference of three or four years, something for an institution which has thus a monopoly of the hank ing of Texas,— Picayune , —— Discovery or a Silver Mine in Southern Illi nois.—The Benton Standard says, we arc credibly informed that a rich mine of silver ore has been lately discovered by Dr. Smith, in the vicinity of Gallatin, Saline county. The discovery was made ■ by the Doctor in exploring a vein of lead, when he discovered what he took to be silver ore, and in order to be certain, ho sent to St. Louis for a mineralogist, who, iu analyzing the ore, extracted fifteen per cent, of pure silver, and twenty per cent, of iron and lead. * The largest fig we have ever seen, it was our good fortune to have presented to us, a few days since, as a specimen. It was grown at Eildon, the resi dence of Miss Martha Conger, and measured in circumference about six inches. It was delightful to the taste, and was the first eaten by us this sea son. Many thanks to the fair donor —Port Gibson Herald. Homological Curiosity. —Wo were yesterday presented with one of the most singular fruitul for mations that we remember ever to have witnessed. At the end of a single stem, was a cluster of fifteen apples, most of them large and well formed, aud although the whole are confined within a circle of from fifteen to eighteen inches, each apple is en tirely distinct from tho others. The stem which supports them is scarcely one-quarter of an inch in thickness, and was only able to bear their weight by being itself supported by a proximate branch. The fruit is supposed to be of the variety called horse-apple, and is from the orchard of Mr. Z. B. French, at Spring Hill. Mr. French also presented us with a stem upon which was a cluster of seven apples, and informs us that on the same tree there are several clusters containing six or more. As the fruit is not quite ripe wo cannot speak experimentally of its flavor or quality.— Mobile Adv. The fire which occurred at St. Louis on the 25th ult. destroyed property to a large amount. The principal losers were Col. John O’Fallon, building, $5,000; A. McMechan, stock, $17,800; J. McMe chan, stock, $4,000 ; S. McCartney, stock, $10,000; J. & J. Hammill, etock, $14,000; G.&W, Kogers, •bock, fio,ooo. C|rmuclc & Sentinel. AUGUSTA, GEORGIA. - TUESDAY MORMUfI JUNE «, 1853. Fine Fruit. We have been presented by a friend who recent ly visited the premises, witk some very superior ripe apples from the orchard of our townsman James L. Coleman, Esq., whose well kno-.vn assi duity and attention to Fruit culture for several years past has resulted in the production of one of the fined; orchards in the country, not less for the great variety of choice grafted fruit and judicious and careful selections embraced, than the large number of trees in lull bearing and bending under the weight of a bountiful harvest. These fine apples remind us that wo have omit edto notice an experiment of Mr. Coleman’s in sending Apricots to the New York market. In company with a small box designed as a present to a friend, he sent a box for sale. They were pack ed in cotton and being sent by railroad and steam ers, arrived in pretty good condition, and were sold to one of the largest fruit dealers in the city for eighteen cents apiece. He was assured by his friend that they would bring that price for some weeks to come, until they are in season in that climate. This and other tests which Southern Gardeners and Horticulturists are making of the advantages of the New York mar ket for early vegetables and fruits, should certainly prompt to greater exertions to supply those mar kets. Xew Books. “ Wavert.y Novels.” Abbotsford Edition. Lip pincot, Grambo <fe Co., Philadelphia. The admirers of Sir Walter Scott, and who is not ? the public and all lovers of Fiction, will feel greatly obliged to the publishers for the re-publi cation of the Waverly Novels, in the very hand some style in which these are produced. It is from the last English edition, embracing the author’s latest corrections and notes, is printed on fine ■ white paper and new type, and is altogether the handsomest edition we have seen of the work, , which will be completed in twelve volumes, or twenty-four parte, each part containing a novel complete. The creations of Sir Walter Scott’s prolific mind in the world of fiction, like the productions of SnAJisPEARE.havc become standard works,and no gentleman’s library is considered complete without them. Ind ed, the works of no writer of romance, of ancient or modern times, have been so univer sally admired and approved. Part 1, which contains “ Warerly complete, may be had of T. Richards & Son. “The Life op Robert Emmett,’’ by John W. Burke. The eventful history of this distinguished son of the Emerald Isle, has been a fruitful theme for the Historian, Biographer, and Essayist— and so long as a true Irish heart pulsates each new l Ibutor will be read with avidity. In the work before us the author does not assume the produc tion of any thing new, but simply to have compiled and condensed this from & variety of sources. It is for sale by J. A. Carrie & Co. Call you this Backing your Friends ?—The Charleston J lerevry of yesterday thus disposes the nominations: The 'Democratic Candidates. —lt will be seen by our telegraphia news that the Democratic Conven tion, after an intestine struggle of long and painful duration, have at length succeeded in reconciling conflicting claims, by pitching all the established candidates out of the window, and adopting a man whose name had been barely whispered be forehand. Gen. Pierce, of New Hampshire, will be recalled by those who have good memories, as formerly representing his State, with much credit, in the U. S. Senate, where he was very popular and considered a man of promise. He left the position, we believe, voluntarily. Subsequently he was one of Mr. Polk’s generals in the Mexican war, where he did good service, though his exploits were never considered seriously to endanger the reputation of Julius Ciesar and the Duke of Wellington. In politics he belongs to that respectable portion of the Democracy of New Hampshire, which has never inude terms with the Freesoilers and Aboli tionists, and he is, wc suppose, in all respects, as good a man for the South as any of those whom he has superseded. Mr. King, the candidate for Vice-President, needs no comment. In tact, he would not bear much, being formed of that flimsy, tinsolly sort of i stuff, that is intended rather to ho admired than j handled. He is a good man but not good for much. For the rest, the Convention, it appears, has shouldered the Compromise bodily—n load which wo wish them joy. Ifthisisnot “damning with faint praise,” we should like to sec what would be so considered.— The Mercury is doubtless preparing itself for a very zealous and earnest support of the ticket. In IS4B, it was much less sparing with its flings at General Cass, until after Mr. Calhoun visited Charleston. Yet, strange as it may seem, it suddenly changed its tone and became, if not one of his greatest ad mirers, certainly one of his warmest advocates. Georgia Delegations at Baltimore. As some curiosity has been manifiest ed to as certain the exact position of the two delegations from Georgia to the Baltimore Convention, about which there had been contradictory Telegraphic reports, we extract the following account of the action of the Convention on the subject from the National Intelligen-er's report of the proceedings ; Before proceeding to vote, the Convention t , up and disposed of a report of the Comttr^° 011 Credentials, presented at the evening At,- 01 l Wednesday, m which the Convent s ',n il inix,' ° That all the States in the Ur’ on renr therein, by Delegates dub- elected, with the excep tion of Carolin'd, f rom W hi c h there is no re presentation, w frmn X ZZI 6nti - C delegations trum the State oi Georgia ; one representing the Blatc Rights party, ano, claiming the tight to re present the State in the Convention on the ground thaUt more fully represented the Democracy of the otate taan any other existing organization ; and the other representing that portion of the Demo crats of Georgia belonging to the Union party, who claimed seats on the ground that they renresented a large portion of the Democrats of the State. After duly hearing and considering the claims set forth by the advocates of each delegation the committee decided to recommend to the adoption ot the convention the following resolutions : Resolved, That tiro Democratic delegation from Georgia represented by Mr. Cohen, (State Rights ) consisting of twenty-one members, are the repre sentatives of Georgia, and are therefore admitted to their seats. Resulted. That the delegation represented by Mr. Jackson, seventeen in number, are Demo crats in principle, and reflect the sentiment of a portion of the Democracy of Georgia, and that they be admitted to seats in the Convention, and that said delegations, thus united, cast the vote of the btatc. - Specie from Mexico.— The St. Louis papers say that between three-quarters and one million of dollars in specie have been received in that city from New Mexico this season, nearly every dollar of which has been or would be laid out for good® there. Directors of the La Grange Bank. —At a meet ing of the stockholders of the. La Grange Bank, held on the 27th nit., the following gentlemen were elected Directors: Hugh A. Haralson, William Reid, B. B. Amoss, Jesseo McLendon, O. A. Bull, Samuel Curtright, William Wagnor. At a reecnt meeting of the New Y'ork Historical Society Mr. Frederick De Peyster read a paper on the Progress and Destiny of the United States, in which he stated his opinion that the population of this country in 1901 would be one hundred and two millions. The total shipments of gold from San Francisco during the month of April were $3,419,817. The receipts of the New York and Frie Railroad, for the month of May, were $369,285.56—0f which there were from passengers $184,118.86, and frOm freight $235,172.20.

Madison, Ga., June 5, 1852. A IntgS number of the citizens of Morgan county, favorable to the clcctien of Millard Fillmore to the Presidency, having convened ot the Court House in Madison, Dr. E. E. Jones was calied to the Chair, and T. A. Burke appointed Secretary. On motion of A. S. Wingfield, Esq., the follow ing gentlemen were appointed a committee to re port suitable resolutions to the meeting: A. S. Wingfield, Esq., Colonel Joshua Hill, Hon. W. S. Stokes, A. Atkinson, Esq,, Col. N. G. Foster, C. J. Baldwin, and Amos Brown, Esqrs. The commit tee, after a short absence, reported the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That we approve the movement made in this Slate, to send delegates to the Whig Na tional Convention to bo held at Baltimore on the 16th instant.* Resolved , That we have marked, with entire sat isfaction, the ability, prudence and faithfulness that have characterized the administration of Mil lard Fillmore, and that ho i* our choice of ail men for the next Presidency. Resolved, That for the purpose of securing the nomination of this friend of the Constitution and defender of the South, we hereby delegate John T. McNeil, Thoa. D. Hollingsworth, Garland J. H. Pryor, and Chas. E. Nisbet, to represent us in the Convention to bo held at Milledgevillo on Monday next. Resolved , That we regard the series of laws known as the Compromise Measures, as a final settlement of all the questions embraced therein, and that we will not support any candidate for the Presidency or Vice-Presidency who does not deem such acts as final in all respects, and faithfully to be observ ed and enforced; and that we will not be bound by the action of said Whig National Convention, though it nominate the man of our choice, if said Convention do not, by resolution, approve and en dorse said Compromise Measures. Resolved, That we desire the Convention at Mil ledgeville to instruct our delegates to the Whig National Convention to insist upon the adoption by the latter body of a resolution, such as we have heroin before stated, as a condition to their abiding the action of that Convention. On motion of Col. Joshua Hill, the delegates were empowered to fill any vacancies that might occur. On motion, it was Resolved , That the proceedings of this meeting bo published in the Chronicle <fe Sentinel, Macon Journal & Messenger, and Southern Recorder. The meeting was then adjourned sine die. E. E. Jones, Chairman. T. A. Burke, Secretary. Meeting in Troup County. At a called meeting of the Constitutional Union Party of Troup county, Maj. Alexander Speer was called to theCnair, and Wm.F. Fannin requested to act as Secretary. Judge Hill made a few appropriate remarks, re commending the party to eschew all alliance, and to retain its separate and distinct organization, i On motion, lion. E. Y. Hill, Dr. K. A. T. Ridley, B. C. Ferrell, A. B. Fannin, John Hogg, Jas. Love lace and Samuel Reid, Esqrs., were appointed a select committee to prepare business fertile action of the meeting. Judge Hill, on the part of the committee reported the following resolutions: Whereas, in the month of December 1850, the people of Georgia, with unprecedented unanimity in Convention assembled, passed resolutions ob literating the ancient laud marks of National Whig and Democratic parties, and agreed to co-operate with all men of all parties and of all sections who were disposed to make the preservation of our much loved Union, the equality of civil rights in all the States and the finality of the Compromise measures the basis of their future political action; and, whereas, no subsequent developements has given us assurance that we may, with safety, rely upon cither party of the old organization for the maintainauce of our views, th.cn fully expressed, and still lividly entertained and devotedly cherish ed ; but we being warned that our peculiar institu tion of the South can find security only in an amal gamation of the sound parts of the people of the American Union acting together for good and in opposition to the disturbers of public and domes tic harmony; Therefore Resolved , That the exigency which call ed the Constitutional Union Party into existence ought still to control our political movements and that its influence is still felt and acknowledged in all its%brce; that we, as a portion of that party, in the declaration of our creed, then claimed to he in earnest, and have discovered no reason why even our enemies should now treatit as child’s play. Resolved-, That we approve of the present admin istration of the Government of the United States, not exclusively us a whig administration, but as a Compromise, Constitutional Union Administration, based upon those principles which formed the Union as it was , satisfies us with it as it is and can alone preserve it as we pray God it may ever re main—“ formidable to tyrants only,” and, there fore, that we should be ungrateful not to express our abiding confidence in every member of that administration who has done his whole duty in the enforcement of municipal Law.

Fire,—Fire was discovered between 3 and 4 o’clock Sunday morning- in the building at the Southeast corner of Columbus and Ilanover-streets, Hampstead. The place was owned by Daniel Wood, and occupied as a dry goods store and dwelling by Mr. Gibbs. This building with all its contents was destroyed. The fire extended South ward on Columbus street, destroying the two next houses, the one owned by Mr. Cutmeyer and the other by Mr. Wagner, the latter being "occupied by Mr. Bens. From the first building the fire crossed Oolumbus-atreet, and consumed the two dwellings on the Southwest corner—tho first owned by Mr. Koenecken, and occupied by Mr. Wien.ges, and the second owned by Richard Laeas, colored man, and occupied by Mr. Miller. Much of tho furni ture was saved from all but the house where the fire originated. The buildings were all of wood, and old, but very comfortable dwellings and the loss will fall heavily on some of the parties. The fire spread with great rapidity and moat of tho damage was done before the fire companies could arrive, in force, at the scene. When they got to work they put it out like a candle. But for their energy and skill, it might have proved very disastrous, as the spot was surrounded ny a wilderness of wooden houses in a close neighborhood and inviting the flames. There are strong suspicious of foul play, and a man was yesterday taken up, who was found in the dry goods store at the time the fire was per ceived. lie professed to have discovered the fire and to have entered the place for the purpose of saving the goods. Wc have not beard tho result of his examination. 'The occupant of the store had been absent all night over the River, and only returned to find his house in ashen.— Oh. Mercury.

It may inter est you to know that they almo st all believe that Sir John Franklin is safe, and tha t he has got through the ice barrier into inner water s, where he will not be reached until a mild season arrives ; which they say the present will be. Most of them have bow departed. They say Franklin will not suffer for want of food. They give strange accounts of the Esquimaux vibrating from the Asiatic to the Ame rican continent and back again, carrying th ir boats, made of skin and whalebeno, over the ice, and launching them when they meet with open water. They all confirm the fact that the whales found in Behring’s Strait and in Baffin** Bay are the same species proving the exist ence of a passage ; for a whale of the Asiatic speck's, they say has never been seen to the south of 23 decrees of lati tude ; eo they cannot have doubled either <*U the Capes (of Good Hope or Cape Horn ,) anxi the w hale is under the necessity of making hi* prest mce known by coming to the surface to blowjt' ' Bij Jllaimetic Cclfjjrapt).'

She brings 804 passengers and $70,000 on freight, and $150,000 in the hands of passengers. Her dates from California and 1 .ma ma are not later. , The steamer Illinois arrived at iviugston on Uie 26th September, and left for Aspinwall on the 2i th. Affairs at Aspinwall were prosperous, aiu. the most energetic measures were being used to com plete the Panama Railroad. ARRIVAL OF THE CRESCENT CITY. New York, June Bd.—The Crescent City, with the California mails and specie which left Aspiu wall 6 hours ahead for New York, brings Kingston dates of the 24th. The American schr. Harriet, from New York for Navy Bay, was wrecked on the Eastern beach of Jamaica on the 15th ult. The crew were saved, but the cargo was greatly dam aged, and tho vessel is a total wreck. The small pox was still prevailing in many parts of the island with great virulence. In Kingston the disease was spreading to an alarming extent. The dates from Panama are to May 22d. The steamer Winfield Scott made the passage from San Francisco to Panama in 12 days. She passed on the 15th the steamer Panama, and on the 21st the propeller Columbus, both bound up. The steamer California broke her shaft on the upward passage on the 24th, and was lying at San Patio. The steamer Quickstep, intended as a packet be tween Panama and Realijo, arrived at Panama on the 20th. A semi-weekly mail Express had been establish ed between ‘Panama and Aspinwall. Mr. Evers arrived at the former place on tho 20th in 11 hours from Aspinwall. Mr. Herren, Minister of Foreign Affairs in Peru, arrived at Panama on his way to Europe, on an important mission connected with his country and probably with all the South American Republics. Machalo had pronounced in favor of Flores and one of his vessels had anchored in the harbor. A letter written April 27th, on board one of Flores’ war steamers, says that operations would be com menced the next day against Equadorby attacking Perna and Machala." Flores is supported by Peru and cannot easily be driven from Guayaquil. The U. 8. ship Portsmouth was et Guayaquil on the Ist of May and the Raritan was at Payta on the 14th, expecting to remain some time. A letter written on board the Portsmouth says that Flores, »ith 1000 men was awaiting at Pavia for reinforce ents. The Guayaquil government had sent 4000 troops to oppose him. The U. S. Consul was confident Flores had every change of success. Tho Panama Herald of the 14th says that intelligence bad been received from Guayaquil that Flores was still at Tuna, whorehls force was rapidly increasing by reinforcements from Peru. This act caused great excitement at Guayaquil, and the President in person at tho head of a mob had torn down the house of the Peruvian Consul, and tramped on his flag. The Consul and his family were ordered | immediately to leave the country. It was reported that Donaldson’s serenaders had 1 been murdered between Shasta and Butler city, 1 I California. The Custom House and Post Office at Astoria, Oregon, were destroyed by fire on tho 16th. The books and paper were saved. The British mail steamer Luna arrived at Paua ma on the 18th, with Valparaiso dates of April 80, and $600,000 in specie. The Chilian Congress will open on the Ist June. The effects of the late revolution had disaj.pered and commercial, mining and agricultural opera tions were going on with vigor. Ecuador continues very much disturbed and ! war between that country and Peru is confidently j expected. 1 Portland, June Sd.-—The Whig State Conven tion met 1.0-day, and was largely attended. Hon.

So great was the force that at a dis ■ tanoe of ninety feet from the pool, Mr. Ladd, who was superintending the removal of the dirt, was | thrown a distance of fifteen feet, and lodged in a pile of bricks. The water crossed Eagle street, I throwing down about forty feet of the fence sur : rounding Mr. Arthur’s garden, and uprooting, in 1 its course, several trees and shrubs in the garden j ! besides doing considerable other damage, Fortu- j natcly, the torrent was somewhat arrested by a i large pile of brick, on Eagle street, but for w* j more serious consequences would hay* \ Mr. Ladd, though not seriously iuiiag*'’ . ens L U T • erably bruised, v a, is corned- New York, June 4th.— the California mails and - c Crescent ( xl ty, with day.
