All he sought was the r venting Os some stream from lit ing f mntain, Through earth’s hidden arteries stealing From the heart of yonder mountain. Which sho 11 spring, a well of joy, To the sacred homestead ever; Sweet and pure without alloy, An J bounteous as the all-bounteous Giver. Upward looked he to the fight An I the sp in of sky afar, And behold, as at midnight, Shone at noon a sparkling star ! Then first learned he that the sun And the glare and stir of day Were but shrouds and darkness dun To the h gh and far away; That the light so prized, which made The near palpable arom d us, But the tyrant w th us played, And to dust with short chain bound us. Only wnen the darkness falls, Veiling ad the objects nigh. Look we freely o’er these walls To the glorious spheres on high ! THE FLOWERS. BY C. D. STUART. There is a legend old as earth, But beautiful and true, Which tel s us how the flowers had birth, And wherefore came the dew. When Eve, through Satan’s sore deceit. Touched the forbidden tree. And tempted her “ good man’ - to cat, The Lord came angrily ; And straightway turned from Eden’s bowers These first-born sinners forth ; Away from all its smiling flowers— Upon the barren earth. But pitying—ere to heaven he passed— His ang is—brothers then— O’er all the earth their footprints cast, An I hill, and vale, and glen Sparkled with flowers—Earth's starry spheres— And ere they fled from view, They strewed the flowers with pitying tears, Which since have passed for dew. And thus, though paradise was lost By first of human kind, Their chil Iren know, th ugh sorely crossed, God’s love is left behind. From the Natchez Courier. Rules of a Sermon. Delv'ered in the Methodist Episcopal Church , Natchez , Thanksgiving Day, Nor. 11 1852, by Key. W. j Hamilton Watkins. “Happy is the people that is in such a case : yea happy is j that people whose God is the Lord.” —\bth verse, \4Ath I Psalm. The speaker proceeded to show the universal re- j cognition, among all people, in all ages, ot' a su preme, superintending Providence, producing as its natural consequence, petitions for desired ob jects, and gratitude for the bestowal of good. The ! origin of thanksgiving days, set apart for that pur- I pose was glanced at, as connected with the first history of our ancestors—and the beauty and su- ; blimltyof a whole people, acknowledging the God of the Bible in such a manner, as the source of ail . their blessings, most beautifully portrayed. In speaking of the advantages of “that people whose God is the Lord,” the speaker showed that the intellectual and moral character of the men of all ages and nations, was fash'n n ;d after the model of their deities—ana that exaltation of human cha- i racter, intellectual power and moral excellence, | were consequent on the possession ol the Oracles j of God, exhibiting as they did, besides the cha- | racter of the Creator, the origin, duties and desti- I ny of man, inducing a wide range of thought, and indicating a lofty morality. The speaker showed that this standard of morality was uniform and broad. That while it regarded the outward man, it provided for, and required that purity of heart, without which external morality was sheer hypo crisy. He showed that the rule of life found iii the Scriptures was applicable to, and binding on, alike the rich and the poor, the learned and the un learned—and that in its application, its rules were binding as well on nations as individuals. A hap py allusion was made to the fact, that that day was the two hundred and thirtieth anniversary of the Landing of the Pilgrims—and that their first act was to bend the knee in Thanksgiving on Ply mouth Rock. That this same spirit continued until and through the Revolution—a religious cle ment in individual character, widely diffused through, and recognized in a.l our National affairs. That hence our fathers recognized the doctrine in morals, that policy of an action, that would bo dishonest in an individual, would bo dishonest in a State. Again, it was shown, and strongly en forced that under our form of government, the act of the State, if dishonorable was the act of the in dividual composing that State—and that each must bearthe responsibilities, and takethe consequences of such act, as though it were Lis act alone. The speaker dwelt upon the many inestimable bless ings we possessed as a people, but still insisted that with us, as with the Jews of old, our advantages were “much every way, but chiefly that to us were committed the Oracles of God.” Ho dwelt with force and beauty on the confidence and trust in this God, as the God of our nation, and showed that the doctrine of man’s immortality in future weal or woe, could alone be relied on, as a restraint upon the passions, and an effectual encouragement to good. The speaker closed as follows “Amid the multitude of mercies, a benefici nt creator has bestowed with a hand G s bounty, our country has not escaped those evils which are common to nations ; nor been born above those reverses, which teach the vanity of fondest hopes. Real evils have been meted out to us under a Providence mainly merciful—and so softened by the mixture of good, that the tears of gratitude are mingled with tears of sorrow. T a rice, recently has this great nation opened it> bosom to receive, as a sacred deposit the treasured, memory of her illustrious sons. * I will not say that a star has beep stricken out of our national galaxy, leaving a track of glowing light to indicate its fell, j No, the star shall shine on forever, and its name ' shall not be dunged. When South Carolina bowed to the tomb of him whose integrity and purify made him invulnerable ■ to fear, and whoso wisdom and patriotism glowed witli an even flame, a nation stood by to pronounce j his eulogy. When Kentucky reeled with the stroke that ■ struck down the man of the people, the healer of the nation’s wounds, the man who thrice drove hack tlie demon of sectional strife, and made us feel that one br<>ud shield covered t ds Union, and one fraternal bond united the men of America in one vast brother-bond—one loud wail of sorrow rolled up to the ear of heaven. But scarcely had the tide of grief rolled back from the national heart, when a scene transpired at Marshfield, which drove n wave i 1 *-v. -row over the world. The week has ended —’tis pu... die midnight hour—the Sabbath sun stiff rest;- be\m 1 the Atlantic main—a Prince and a Great Man is sinking into the sleep of death. No glittering sword lies here, to remind the war rior that his feme is the \ rice ot blood. No royal robes glitter in mockery of the monarch’s fallen scepter. But royally was pasing away—a might of mind—an intellectual supremacy which bore a sceptre over the world, waasotfly passing from the empire of earth to a throne in the skies. A war rior lay there —one whose arm bore aloof the stan dard of truth—one who ‘trode no step backwards, and on whose shield was engraven, iu imperish able characters, “ Liberty and Union—one and in separable, row and forever.” Others were great, but he excelled them all. At the Bar—in Diplo macy—iu the Senate—alike the intellectual giant, his record shall endure when the ocean’s surge th at -——- dashes against his granite bound home shall die away beneath the last trunfpet’s sound. Though dead he shall live—live despite the spirit of detrac tion —and live in sneh intellectual, moral national grandeur, that unwilling praise shaA ill from the lips of those, whose partizan be neath his look. He shall live the greatwxpouudcr of thp Constitution—the profound exponent of American policy, as long as the “Father of Lis- Country ” is remembered, or the genius of liberty dwells among men. Revolutions may yet reduce our proud nation to irreparable ruin—and clashing extremes may riot in the desolation they have wrought—but amid ' the universal wreck, one monument shall stand to preserve the memory of him who knew “no North, no South, no East, no West.” These are g^ne —but He who raised up Calhoun, and Clav, and Webster —the Patriot, Orator and the Sa*re, still sits above the heavens, and rules i the affairs of men. These are gone, but each of them was a Christian patriot—and each of them in life bowed down to the authority of God—rever- his word—and in death, leaned for succor upon His arm. God of America, and of America s greatest men, forsake us not in the hour of our calamities we be thankful for the past, and frnstfui for th? ffftorc. John Adams’s Diary. Voltaire — Vergev.nes —Court of France—Franklin — Jefferson —American Peers—The Fisheries, etc. About r mouth before the death of Voltaire, Mr. A lams saw that great wit, then in his eighty ton rth year, at the Paris theatre of comedy. The old man attended the performance of his own Al zire. “ Between the acts,the audience called him out. and clapped and applauded him the whole time. The old poet rose and bowed respectfully to the audience. * He has yet much tire in his eyes and vigor in his countenance, though very old.’ A few nights afterwards Adams went to hear D'Alembert pronounce an eulogy at the Academy of Sciences. It was a memorable re-union, tor j Franklin and Voltaire were both present, Tne euthusia tic Frenchmen could not, ol course, nc : gleet seizing on such a tine opportunity lor a scene. i There presently arose a general cry that M. v 01-1 1 taireaudM. Franklin should be introduced to each other. This was done, and they bowed and sooKc to each other. This w-s no satisfaction, and there must be something more. Neither of our philoso phers seemed to divine what was wished unexpect ed ■ they, however, took each other by tiie hand. But this was not enough ; the clamor continued till the explanation came out. II font s'embrasser , a U Francoist! Tne two aged actors upon this ■rrcat theatre of philosophy and frivolity then em braced each other, by hugging one another in their arms, and kissing each others cheeks; andtaeu the tumult subsided. And the cry immediately spread through the whole kingdom, and, I sup pose, over all Europe. “ Qa'il ef-ait channant de voirembrasser Solon et Sophocles. \ oltaire was the great theoriser of revolution, and Franklin the man that put it into successful practice. Mr. Adams speaks of the intrigues of the French Ministry to get the supreme* command of all the American armies into the hands of a Frenchman. He says lie “knew of the intrigue of Marshal De Mai lebois with Mr. Deane, to be placed over the head of General Washington.” The Compte De Nergennes, Mr. Adams and Mr. Lee walking one day, in company, Maillebois passed them. “That is It great General, Sir,” said Lee. “Ah, said Vergenncs, “ I wish lie hud the command with you !” “My feelings,” says Adams, “ were kept to myself; but my reflection .»as: ‘I will be bu ried in the ocean, or iu any other manner sacrific ed, before I will voluntary put on the chains of 1 France, when I am struggling to throw off - those of Great Britain.’ ” In J ane, 1778, about ten years before the burst i ing of the gieat storm which swept away the j throne of France, Mr. Adams saw the grandeur ot i ; Louis and Marie Antoneite at Ag a j grand procession of the Knights of the Saint-Es- j prit, he witnessed the stateliness ot the Queen. “She was attended by her ladies to the gallery op nosite to the altar, placed in the centre of the seat, I and there loftaloue by the other ladies, who all re tired. She was an object too sublime and beauti i Uil for my duff pen to describe. 1 leave this eu ; terpriso to Mr. Burke. But in his description : there is more of the orator than the philosopher.— i : Her dress was everything that art and wealth could | make it. One ol the maids of honor told me she . had diamonds on her person to the value of eigli | •ecu millions ot livres; and 1 always thought her j much beholden to her Mr. Butke saw her , probablv but once. I have seen her fifty times, , perhaps, in all the variety of her dresses. She J i iiad a tine complexion indicating perfect health, i and was a handsome woman in her face and figure ] But 1 have seen beauties much superior, both in ; j countenance and form, iu Fiance, England, and ! America.” Mr. Adams’s report is apparently truer I than Burke’s. The Austrian royal family were al ways more fair and florid than beautiful, and Ma rie Antoinette has the red and white of her soft featured niece, Marie Terese. Mr, Adairs saw the King, Queen, and the rest of the family at their supper. A crowded array of j courtiers and others came together, at nine o’clock I at night to see the royal meal. The American I Ambassador got a distinguished seat, apart from l his company, and close beside the royal family, ' where he was very much looked at, as he sat in j the midst of magnificently-dressed ladies. “My | dress,” ho says, “was a decent French dress, but ; not to be compared to the gold and diamonds and i embroidery about me. The eyes of ail the assem j bly were turned upon me, and 1 felt sufficiently ■ humbled and mortified, for 1 was not a proper object for the criticisms of such a company, 1 found myself gazed at, as we, in America, used to 1 gaze'at tne sachems who came to make speeches to j us in Congress; but I thought it hard if i could | not command as much power ot face as one of the I chiefs, of the bix Nations, and therefore determin- I ed I would assume a cheerful countenance, enjoy \ the scene around me, and observe it as cooiy as an i astronomer calculates the stars. Inscriptions ol Fmctus Belli were seen on the ceiling and ail about I the wails of the room among paintings of the Iro | phies of war, probably done by order of Louis ! XIV, who confessed, in his dying hour, os his i successor ami Napoleon will probatfly do, that he was 100 fond of war. The King was the carver ■ for himseif and the royal family. His Mujes y ate j like a King, and made a royal supper of solid beet i and everything ease in proportion. The Queen took a large spoonful of soup, and displayed her flue person and graceful manners in alternately , looking at the company in various parts of the hall, and ordering several kinds of seasoning to be brought to her, by which she fitted her supper 1 to her taste. When this was accomplished, her Majesty exhibited to the admiring spectators the | magnificent spectacle of a great Queen swallowing i her ruyai.supper in a single spoonful at once. ■ This was all performed like perfect clock-work, i not a feature o\ her face, nor a motion of any part ! of her por.-on, especially her arm and hand, c > ife I be criticised as out ot order. A little, and but a 1 little, conversation seemed to pass among the royal personages ot both sexes, but in so low a v ice that nothing could bo understood by any of he audience.” In such a moment as that, who would or could have prophesied the cud of all? Who could have told that splendid woman and that fat, despotic man, with the carving-knife, that the 1 gulloline should one day chop off'both their he is, I on the public scaffold, in the sight of all approving ; populace of Paris ? Could but the truth be writ ten onihe wall of that royal room, how would the : banquet he broken up with shrieks and horrors unspeakable? But the festivals of Louis and Marie Antoinette continued in all their gallant pomp— Regardless of the sleeping whirlwind’s sway, i That, hiuhed in g. ira repose, waited its evening prey. In a letter to Elbridge Gerry, dated July, 1778, | Mr. Adams says that a letter containing a project | for reconciliation wi h America, had been thrown into one of the grates. “ There are reasons to be lieve k came with the fall privily ol'the King. Full I of flattery, and proposing that America should be ; governed by u Congress of American peers, to be • created and appointed by the King ; and of bribe ry, proposing, that a number, not exceeding two 1 hundred American peers, should be made, and that such as had stood foremost and suffered most, | and made most enemies in this content, as Frank j lin, Washington, Adams, and Hancock, by name, should be of that number. Dr. Franklin, to whom ; the letter was sent, as the writer is supposed to be : a friend of his, sent an answer, in which they have ; received a dose that will make them sick!” In 1782, during the negotiations carried on be tween Franklin, Laurens and Jay, on one side, i and Fitzherbert, Straehey, »fec.,on the other, with respect to lDe Northern Fisheries, Straehey proposed that, instead of “right of Fishing” to Americans, it should be “liberty of Fishing.” Up : on this, Adams got hot again, and spoke out, ; “When God Almighty made tne Banks of New j fouudluud, at three hundred leagues distance from i the people of America, and six hundred leagues | distance from France and England, did he not i give as good a right to the former us to the latter! i If occupation, use, and possession, give a right, I we have it as clearly as y ou. If war, blood, and ! treasure give a riaht, ours is as good as yours. | We have been constantly lighting in Canada, Cape Breton, and Nova Beotia for the defence of this fishery, and have expended beyond all proportion more Ilian yon. If, then, the right cannot be de -1 nied, why should it not be acknowledged ? Why should we ieate room lor illiterate tisbenni :i to wrangle and chicane*” After this harangue, the business was at once brought to a close favorable ft the States, who en joyed their fishing privileges till the war of 1812. In 1783, Mr. Adams, after considering the cir cumstances of the Northern I’acific, says; “What should hinder the Empress of Russia from estab lishing a trading city on the sea of Karaschaika, and opening a commerce with Pekin, Nankin and Canton —the cities of China? It is so near the ci ties of Japan, the Philippines, the Moluccas, that a groat scene may be one day opened there.” Mr. Adams, in f letter written to Mr. Pickering in 1522, speaks in an interesting way of the writing of the declaration of Independence. “Mr. Jeffer son,” he says, “came into Congress in Junw, 1775, and brought with him a reputation for literature, science and a happy talent for composition. Wri tings of his were handed about, remarkable for their peculiar felicity of expression. Though a si lent member of Congress, lie was so prompt, stank, explicit and decisive upon committees and in con verr-utian (not even Sam’l. Adams was more so) that he soon seized upon my heart; and upon this occa sion 1 gave him my vote, and did all in rny power to procure the votes of others. I think he had one more vote than any other, and that placed him at the bead of the committee.” Adams was se condhand both were appointed to write the De claration. “The sub-committee met. Jefferson . pto, to me to make the draught. I said, ‘I will not; you do it.’ ‘Oh, no.’ ‘Why wili j vcth not?’ ‘Vou ought to do it.’ ‘I will not.’ j ‘Why Reasons enough. Reason first—vou are a Virginian, and a Virginian ought to appear at the , head ot tins business. Reason second—l am ob l noxious and unpopular; you are very much other | wise. Reason third—you can write ten times bet ter than. I can.’ ‘Well,’ said Jefferson, ‘if you are i decided, I wid do as well as I can.’ ‘Very well; I when vou have drawn it up, we will have a meet i ing.’ “A meeting we had, accordingly, and conned 1 the paper over. I was delighted with its high I tone, and tl e flights of oratory with which it ! abounded, especially that concerning slavery. * * * There were other expressions which I would not have inserted, if I had drawn it up, par- j ticularly that which called the king a tyrant. I i thought this too personal; fori never believed i ' George t o he a tyrant in disposition I always believed him to bo deceived by tiers on botli sides ot the Atlantic, and in ms cial capacity only, cruel. I thought the expressm. too pa.-s enate, and too much like scolding lor so grave and solemn a document; but as Franklin and Sherman were to inspect it afterwards, I thought it would not become me to strike it out. I consented to report it, and do not now remember ) that I made or suggested a single alteration. Con- j gress ext off a quarter of it, as I expected they would, bat they obliberated some of the best of it, and left all that was exceptionable, if anything in it was.” Mr. Adams sa}s the essence of it was m a pamphlet, voted and printed by the town ot Boston before the First Congress met —one that was com posed by Janies Otis, ns he supposes, “in one of his lucid moments,” and pruned aud polish ed by Si.rauel Adams. Ckmucic t< Sentinel AUGUbTA, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MOKMXK DEC’K 3, I 552. The Savannah Mail.—We arc still without a mail from Savannah, the latest papers received from that city being the 25th ult., —a week ago yes terday. Wc think if the Postmaster General does his duty to the country, a prompt change will bo made in the Postmaster at Savannah. Such inef ficiency as this evinces, where there is, every day, afforded the facility for forwarding a mail via Charleston, is insufferable, lie should certainly be made an example of without delay. Hamburg Dank Hills—A Fraud. We received yesterday the following letter from | a highly respectable gentleman of Elbert county: Elbkrton, Nov. 30,1852. Deal Sm :—I have reason to behove that a large } quantity of billson the old Bank of Hamburg, have i lately been brought into this county, from South ! S Carolina, and have been circulated by some swind- ; j ler wifi considerable perseverance and some sue- j ! cess. Many persons do not know, or have forgot- ! i ten, tint tins bank is broken and wound up long j ago. 1 have seen several of the bills of the de j nomination of $ 100. I have a specimen now be i fore me. It issigned Henry Shultz, President, and ; j J. M. Tillman, Cashier; dated July 2d, 1824; a j | head of Franklin, with spectacles on and thumb j ! under the chin, on one end—on the other, the j j head of Washington. In the centre of the bill i j (not the centre ofthe top) is a female figure hold ' ing a staff surmounted by the cap of liberty. Would you not do wed to cull public attention to this t fraud. Yours, &c. It may not bo improper to add, that the present j Bank of Hamburg is a solvent institution, and its j issues are promptly redeemed. The bills are sign cJ by A. Hutchinson, President, and J. Black- ‘ wo on. Cashier. The bills, to which our correspondent refers, are not werth the paper on which they are printed. The Wellington Funeral.—Some idea of the : anxiety to witness this magnificent pageant may ; be formed from tais fact, that the London Times of each day contains about three columns of ad- ; vertisements of seats to let at from one to three , guineas each, and rooms at forty and .fifty guineas, j commanding a view of the funeral procession of the Duke of Wellington. His autographs are also : advertised for sale. The advertisements arc head- ; ed “ Funeral of the Duke.” From Oregon.—By the late arrivals from Cali fornit. dates from (Jregon were to Oct. 23d. Over land emigrants continued to arrive, most ot them j in great distress, and 800 or 900 wagons were re- j ported on their way. Very few of the emigrants i had rny Flour, and were obliged to live upon their i own Cuttle. The citizens of Oregon City and Mil waukie had contributed SI,OOO to their relief. “The Southern Agriculturist,” is the title of a new Agricultural journal to be published at Laurunsville, 6.

The following f-kelch of a brief reference in the English Parliament to the Fishery question, was i received by the Baltic. From the reply of the ! Chancellor of the Exchequer, it is apparent that a new commercial treaty between the two govern ments is in progress, and will probably bo . j oon consummated. In the House of Commons, November, 12th, Mr. McGregor adverted to the passage in the royal speech, referring to the North American colonies’ fishing question. During the administration of the noble lord the member for Tiverton, the inti mate and pacific relations between this country and America were maintained, aud the Earl of Aberdeen most wisely made those concessions with, regard to the fisheries that kept up the har mony previously subsisting, lie trusted that in j the negotiations now pending, the wiioio question ; would be settled upon the principles of free and t uninterrupted intercourse—that the people of the ! United States would have the fret dom of fishing in the North American seas, and that the colonists would be permitted equally free intercourse in the wate rs of the United states, (Hear, hear.) y The Chancellor of the Exchequer replied the Government of the United States had agreed enter into negotiation with her Map sty’s GoverqJ ment, in u most friendly spirit, that might jiMm increased commercial relations between Uißtw# countries. The spirit in which the eotnmnftjc a ti ons between the two Governments were eartHT on was of the most and hethqlghtthe result woul improve very satisfactory (hew, hoar) but under- thi existing circumstances thp House could not dscpcct that the Government Voul< I lay any pnpersjton the table. jfcl A manufcicturetin_Wui jy-anted a j mode of suwJyjhg a surface coating to sßeet-iron, which enableV% to-takc freshly the mark®!’ a slate- ! pencil.

The rate of taxes now is 96.70, 100 on SIOO of valuation, but next year it w ill 1.25 on the SIOO. The city debt of Nevv York is $14,578,908. A collision recently took place on the Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus Railroad, by which two pc'sons were mortally injured, and ten or tw'elve others more or less hurt. The papers state that the accident was occasioned by the conductors of both trains claiming the right to the road, and neither being willing to give way to the other.

The Central Road is badly injured for fifty miles, between stations No. Sand 13, and it will probably be two weeks be- j fore it can be placed in a condition to be passed by ■ train.*. The South-Western Road is also much in jured for several miles between Marshaliville and Montezuma. The officers of the Road have ex hibited great activity and promptness in repairing the damage it hassu.-tained, and wo have been re quested to state that on Sunday morning the cars will commence running to Oglethorpe. They can go now no farther than Marshaliville. The other railroad lines have not suffered materially. “ The Oemulgee rose very rapidly for a while, and carried away the scaffolding of the Railroad Bridge. The Bridge was nearly completed, aud sustained no injury. “ We arc suffering serious inconvenience by the interruption of our communication with Savannah and Oglethorpe. W T e have received no mails from t’.ie North or West for a week ; aud are just now very sensible of the value of our Railroads.” Rosewood Trade.— lt is said that an attempt is being made to form a company at New Orleans for the purpose of entering into the rosewood trade. The projector owns a large tract of land near Gua tulco, in the State cf Aajaco, on the Pacific, about 240 miles from Acapulco, which is covered with splendid rose trees from three to four feet in di ameter. It can be delivered for shipment at a cost of $6 per ton, and is worth between SSO and per ton of cubic feet. Senator from Indiana. —We karn from the In dianapolis (la.) Sentinel that the Hon. Charles W. Cathcart has been appointed by the Governor of Indiana United States Senator, to fill the vacancy i caused by the death of the lion. James Whitcomb. United States Senator erom Arkansas.— The lion. Wm. K. Sebastian was re-elected by the General Assembly of Arkansas on the 10th inst., to the Senate of the United States for six years from the 4th of March next, when his present i term will expire. There are at present nearly one thousand men ' i employed upon the U. 5. ship Vermont, the steam- ' • ev Hancock, and other work now going on at the Charlestown Navy Yard, and everything indicates , i that there will be more business done than for ' many years past. Report says that the Franklin i is to be repaired and fitted out for a sea voyage, ! and is to be sent to the Boston Yard for that pur- i t * l i pose. Peter Cooper, Esq., a well known merchant, of New York, has appropriated the sum of SBOO,- ; 000 for the erection of an institution to be known as tbo “Union,” the object of which is to be “ the Moral, Mental and Physical improvement of the Youth of that city, of the State, the Country, end ■ the World.” North Carolina Legislature.- -The Wilmington (N.C.) Commercial says that no United States Sen ; tar has as yet been elected by the Legislature. At life last ballotting on Friday, Dobbin received 75, Saunders 3-3 votes —a gain to tbo latter of about 10 votes on previous ballottings. “ Tremendous ex citement,” us the say ing is. The Norfolk Beacon states that the Dismal i Swamp Cana! Company intend renewing their ap ■ plication to the next Congress for an appropriation • of the amount of dividends which accrue to the !

Austria, says an English journal, is running the \ career of a bankrupt and speudtbrfft, and only 1 keeps together by coercion.

Wo learn from our neighbor of the Evening , Nows that there was a fire at Savannah, at eleven | ' o’clock yesterday morning at the corner of Mont- ! j gomery aud South Broad streets, in the retail gro- ) eery occupied by Martin Grother, which destroyed j the adjoining tenements occupied by P.

Hogs.—A number of hogs have passed through this place foijche Southern markets. Scarcely a clay but a Jurjze number passes—-some of our citizens say more than have ever before passed so early in the season. Wo do not think that the price of pork can hold up—as was indicated by the price of hogs early in the Fall. The grain crops have been larger in the South than usual, and a large number have raised enough pork to do them, eo that the usual supply from Tennessee and Kentucky will more than supply the market, and if the supply is greater than usual it wiii be ruinous to dealers. . Wo gather from our latest dates that hogs arc ■‘Sxsertled at Cincinnati, at $5.50af5.70. The Lex inlgtun (Ky.) Observer brvs that for several days the pric-‘ : ad been down so $3 75, but that it had advanced *o $4 with a prospect of being perma nent. In Shelby ville, Ky., |4 is the ruling price. London {Tenn.) Press. Fire.—At about eleven o’clock last night an alarm of tiro was given, which, on enquiry, we found proceeded from a stable in the rear of tiie wooden dwelling house, situated on the north side of Calhoun street, between Elizabeth and Meeting streets, belonging to Abaham North. The flames soon reached the front buildings, and oom nxj&nicatiiig with the adjoining tenements, ail also opwood, the wind blowing high from the north east some fourteen/)! - them, their progress jjiot being arrested until they arrived at Weston’s a wo3new houses, two doors from Meeting street, •, ukich were saved. Some difficulty occurred in •preventing the devouring element from crossing to the south side of Calhoun street, and consum- i ing the wooden buildings there—indeed, one house was burnt, but by the strenuous exertions of the 1 firemen the rest were preserved. Tlie two and a ■ half storied wooden building, used as a school house, situated on the east side of Meeting street, opposite Bara’s Lane, had a narrow escape.

(Jour, of Thursday.. i New Bedford, Nov. 29.—Two men were arrest- 1 ad this morning for placing obstructions on the N. i Bedford railroad track, near Brady’s crossing. One £ of them, named Ryder, has previously been in the < state prison for the same offence. < / * From Buenos Ayres Byway of England we have fuller advice? from the River Plate. The following letter dated Buenos Ayres, October 2, throws light upon the xecent movement there, by which Urquiza’s gov ernment was overthrown : On the Blh of September General Urquiza left lor Santa Fe to instal the Constituent Congress taking with him a considerable number of the de puties elect, leaving Gen. Galan with 4,000 or 5,000 ! Entrermnos and Cerrentinos to keep the Buenos i A\leans in order. The latter had made no secret onheir dissatisfaction, and found some of Urqui ias most inf uentiul chiefs ripe for a revolt. Uu the morning tt the llth tho people and a part of the army fraternized, aud declared the reign of the Hero ot Caserns at an end, in this quarter at Ica-t, Galun proved true to his ti ust, aud was partly compelled, partly allowed, to retire bv land with some 2,000 ot his followers who stuck bv fin '■ Fortunately, eo blood has been shed. Genera s : Urquiza has retired alibis forces to Entrerios 1 but says he is determined to instal the Congress I and constitute the Republic; accordingly, he has 1 noticed all the foreign agents and consuls t 0 treat Inax as representative of the national affairs. V civil war, or a de facto disembormeut of the Con federation, seems the only alternative. The Buenos Ayreans, Federals and Unitarians are iimted against Urquiza. Whether they may continue so united as to form a strong and' stable provincial Government is a different question. In the meantime., our hopes of a national organisa tion are indefinitely postponed and businesses sad ly deranged. We have not yet had time to hear how the nc w« r *ceived by the interior provinces. It is probable that severa: ot the governors may udlu re to General Urquiza, while the sympathies of the communities must be in favor of Buenos Ayres rendering other provincial revolutions almost in evitable. General Urquiza’a career as a public man we consider ended. The revolution was ef fected by a nocturnal cTetut. The late Chamber of Representatives assembl'd : and, having recognised the movement, declai d ‘ themselves reinstalled, and elected General Pi* to Governor ot the province, who named Dr. Aleh-u, ; Minister-General. Buenos A} res will consent to the free navigation t.ie i a ran a. and will declare the port of Buenos Ayres a bonding port. A lew days after the rex o- j .ulion in Buenos Ayres, some of Rosas’s adhere: ts I attempted to taxe advantage of the confusion. 1 he Government promptly ordered about a dozen of j tnem to quit the country within twenty-four hou ■ One of them, Colonel Costa, accompanied Rosas to j England, whence he returned two or three mouths ' bacK. These gentlemen are now in Montevid* o. ' I U rquisa s son is also there, supposed to be accre I ted to tins Government. I Bir Charles llotham, who had accompanied Ur- I j quxzato Ban Nicola, returned to Buenos Ayr*, i St : George, the French envov, also return*' t, and afterwards came to this place. It is said he ! will proceed to Rio Janeiro, aud that Sir Char>s I will immediately ascend the Panama in the Luc. <t steamer to the Paraguay, to acknowledge the in - pendenco of that Republic, aud, if practicable, * > . ter into the preliminaries of a commercial treaty, j From the London Herald of Novtviher 16. The General by whose skill and courage the r*> : n ■ of a tyrant was brought to a dose, and who, it i must bo admitted, used his success with singu *.r good sense, moderation aud humanity, has ot n expelled from the supreme authority which, in t e first transport of their deliverance, the inhabitai » of the city of Beunos Ajres were but too anxious to clothe him with. General Urquiza, mindful if hie well deserved reputation, and influenced, ve 1 sincerely believe, by the highest sense of duty t> d t attachment to his country, declined the o'dio is , | task of involving it in bloodshed and civil war. I With temper and self-denial rare amongst C:e j military chieftains of South America, ho has > quiesccd in the forcib'e change of government brought about in his absence from the city, a: 1, contenting himself with obtaining the advanta: s to the confederation which a common policy an a general harmony of public interest can alone ■<!- ! cure, he leaves, without a struggle, to the city jf Buenos Ayres and the province of which it is * e capital, that control over its own govomm it which its population would seem to desire. However we may lament h circumstance wh n would appear to warrant the belief that a fixed i id : steady Government was a blessing not yet duly . p ‘ preciated :n the Argentine Republic, the coud ct : of a party which has succeeded to the Gove a | ment, in Buouos leaves us under no apj e ! heusion of any itermption to those amicable n a i tions and that commercial intercourse which it i ad ! been the object of General Urquiza to promote end ' establish. On the contrary, it would appear that the t -d I step of the Provisional Government was to confi n all that had been done with this view* by the < o- I vernment which had precceded it; and we h ve J full authority to declare that no interruption either j to the friendly relations or commercial facilities f j forded by rtcent treaties is, or can be anticipat a. The inhabitants of the various provinces of ;he Argentine Confederation, of Entreßois, Corrieni S and the Banda Oriental, possess, cf course, tiie fill ; right to setlle upon what terms aud nnder wh at i paiticular description of general government ti ay ’ may prefer to live. The right of choosing its own | particular form of internal administration, is ue - ; which clearly belongs to every country, and wl : ch ! has ever been admitted by the British Govcrnmr at. I With that admitted right it is not the internin' of | this country to interfere. 1 The duty of our Government is to heal dis n sions, and to promote, as fsr as in them lies, •he j prosperity of those fine provinces. To that d ry jwe are well assured s he noble Secretary of For. ;n j Affairs will address himself. But upon the s. o ! ject of our relations with them, or the free uav 1 na tion of the Rio de la Plata, it affords us the n st sincere satisfaction to assure the public that ot the slightest apprehension need be entertained.
