TO LILLY.
Thou’rt ever on the wing, Lilly,
Thou’rt ever on the wing;
Bo much more like a bird thou art
Than any human thing.
Then build thy nest on high, Lilly,
Then build thy nest on high,
Where the fowler cannot reach it
Oh! build it in the sky.
I said thou wast a bird, Lilly,
Or some terial thing;
BU' birds - they
Poising on wounded wing.
Then build thee vlth the eagle,
men . f tl , 0 „ miyeat:
shah bear thee up,
A lUbou fab when thou essay eat.
_ the eagle builds in the cliffs, Lilly,
Bo high is he' mountain home;
There the ariher’s shalti reach not, Lilly,
And ihe stoim-cloudj never come.
But hide not always there, Lilly,
Come to us now and then,
And tell us of the hou e thou hast,
And soothe our lrtquent pain.
Come at the early Spring-time,
When the first young buds appear;
We’ll think, when breaks thti* silence,
’Ti* thy bird-like voice we hear.
Come, a» the evening twilight—
Come at the hour of prayer;
And we’ll try our wings together
For that upirer atmosphere. Molly.

Minute* of Point* Decided
By the Supreme Court oj Georgia at Americus,
July Term , 1854.
10. J im, (a slave) vs. The State—from Lee. 1.
the Supreme Court, in reviewing the decision ol
the Superior Court refusing a motion lor a contin
uance, will look in the whole evidence to see it
justice has been done to the prisoner, and will not
control the exercise of the direction ol the Court
below, except in cases ol flagrant abuse. 2. The
confessions of a slave made to a white person are
admissible in evidence against linn, if not extort
ed by threats or promises, even though he be un
der aVrost and tied at the time. S. Homicide by
a slave, of a white person, may be justifiable, where
its strictly In selt-dcleuce, oi life or limb, where
there is no chance of escape, and where the killing
of a white man is absolutely necessary to preserve
his own lile or limb. 4. The formation and ex
pression of an opinion by a Juror, while it is pntna
f.icia evidence of u bias, may bo explained by other
'evidence, and when satisfactorily explained, is
not ground for a new trial.
Morgau A Hill, for iTff; Sol. Gen. Lyon for
Heft.
11. Snelling, Adm’r, vs. Horretl—from Stewart.
"Where a motion is made tor a new trial, aud a
brief ol the evidence is entered on the minutes of
Court, though not agreed upon by the counsel,
nor endorsed with the approval ol* the Court
held that the signature of tne minutes of the Court
by the Judge, after examination by hi t , is a suffi
cieut compliance with the ru!e.
Tucker A Holt for PJ’ff; 8. Jones A Gaaiding,
for Heft.
IX. Peterson and others vs. Brooking et. al. from
Randolph. 1. In a motion for a new trial, a brief
of the evidence was agreed upon by the counsel ia
writing, and this agreement entered on the min
ute.. There was no entry of “filed in office” by
the Clerk, nor was there any evidence that it was
actually filed in office—held that this was not a
sufficient compliance with the Cist Common Law
Rule. 2. Tne entry by the clerk of “hied in office”
is not the only proof of the fact of tiliug. Other
evidence may establish the same fact.
B. Jones lor Pi’ll; U. Holt A L. "Warren for
Heft.
13. Levos and another vs. the Adm’rs. of Scott
.—irom Baker. 1. Where the record shows that
both of the Plaintiffs in Error are dead, and with
out legal representatives, and were so at the time
that the writ of error was sued out, the writ of
error will be dismissed on motion.
Rockwell, represented by Cobb, for the motion,
S. Jones contra.
15. Sheffield vs. The State—from Marion. 1.
Where triors arc demanded, testimoi y should be
introduced before them, and the issue proceed
ju»t in the same manner as the ordinary trial be
fore a Jury. Such is the better practice. 2. The
section of the Pena! Code in refeience to the of
fence ol aiding a prisoner to escape from custody,
is applicable to a white person who aids a slave in
custody to escape. 8. This offence differs from a
rescue chiefly in this, that the element of force
enters largely into the latter offence. 4. If parties
aid a prisoner to escape, and after the escape he is
overtaken, aud then rescued bv force, the former
offence is not merged in the latter.
Tucker and E. R. Brown for PPff; S. Hall for
Deft.
16. Philips vs. The State, ex. re!., Jrc., from
Dougherty. 1. Where a fi. fa., is levied on prop
erty in the possession of the defendant on fi. fa.,
to which a claim is interposed, the claimant ia not
entitled a« of right to the pose rssion of the property,
upon giving a forthcoming bond.
Scarborough and Strozer for Pi’ff; L. Warren
for Deft.
17. Porter vs. McCollum and another, from
Houghertv. I. A promissory note, under seal,
and payable to beaier, is transferable by delivery
and without endorsement.
L. Warren for Pl’tf; Sirozor for Heft.
18. Eoyell vs. Lisle and others, from Marion. 1.
Actual possession of a very small part of a lot of
land, without color of paper title, and the occasion
al cutting of timbers off the b&iance of the lot, is
not adverse possession of the land not actually
possessed. 2. Poeessio pedis, without paper title,
as a general rule, does not by construction give
possession beyond the limits of the actual posses
sion. There are exc -prions to this rule, hut the
mere cutting of timbers for house logs, aud the
ranging of cattle on the lot, is no’ one of these ex
ceptions.
Tucker for Pi’ff., 8. Jones for Deft.
lb. Bnrke aud another vs. Sackett, Davis A Pot
ter, from Stewart. 1. Where a bail bond omits a
material condition beneficial to the bail or surities,
the bond iB void.
S. Jones A B. K. Harrison for Pi’ff; no appear
ance for Defendant.
20. Cook vs. Walker, et al., from Harris.—l. A
marriage oontrae., by which the property of the
wife is conveyed to Trustees, lor the sole and
separate use of the wife, giving her power to take
and appropriate the rents, issues, and profits, in
any way whatever, and with power to sell, give or
will aw iy the same, In any manner she may see
proper, with limitations over in the event of her
failure to do so—Held that the wife took an equita
ble estate in lee, and the limitations over were
void, being an attempt to limit a fee upon a fee. 2.
A bupplitneutal bill may be granted during vaca
tion. 8. A defendant in equiety Bhouid not bo
carried out of the county of his resid nee, and of
the pendency of the suit, for the purpose of answer
ing interrogatories filed for him. The Supreme
Courts of Georgia, under the act, of 1793, ‘ havo
general chancery jurisdiction in all cas;s wliero
the remedy at law’ is inadequate.
Ramsey A 8. Jones for Pi’ff.; Dougheriy for
Deft’e.
21. 3ivins vs. Bond and otheis, from Dougherty.
1. A successful drawer in the land lottery may con
vey his title to the land drawn before the grant is
sues. 2. The doctrine of estoppel by deed, applies
to feoffnent, fine and recovery, aud such other
public modes of conveyance as carries notice to all
the world. A deed of bargain and sale enrolled
stands upon the same footing. 8. In all convey
ances of land of what nature soever, where there
is a covenant of warranty of title, the Courts, to
avoid circuity of action, will stop the granter and
his heirs from recovering the lauds, they being
liable upon the warranty.
MoCay A Sullivan for Plaintiff; R. Lyon A
Hines for De’ft.
22. Tarver vs. McKay, from Baker. 1. Where
the sole witness in a cause to a materia! point, aud
upon whose testimony the verdict was found, was
mistaken in_ his testimony, and thereby innocently
did great injustice to the opposite party, a Court of
Equity will grant a new trial, provided the party
has been guilty of no laches, and no opportunity
wa3 had to move for a new trial, after the discov
ery of the mistake.
Morgan for Plaintiff; Lyon A Hines for Deft.
28. McLendon, Administrator, vs. Hooks, from
Dougherty. 1. The insolvency of a party to con
stitute a ground tor equitable set elf, must be dis

Bodily Training.
‘A sound mind iu a sound bodya great bles
sing this; aud one which all parents should try
to secure for their children. Excessive mertal
exertion is bad lor any child. ‘The physical sys
tem should bo the first object. If the order of
nature be reversod, the mind as well as the body
will suffer. It would often bo easy for a skillful
parent to make a child a prodigy ; but a judicious
parent wiil never attempt it. Premature growth
of mind will seldom, if evor, be found to spring
from a vigorous root. We dq not doubt that
many havo sunk iuto an early grave through tho
unnatural development of their faculties, and the
excessive excitement ol" mental and physical sen
sibility, which is usually the effect of it. Lot it be
then, the care of tho parent, to guide aud direct,
rather than to lorco into a right channel the im
mature montal faculties ol the child. But, by all
means, would we earnestly recommend, to go
hand in hand with the moral training already
glanced at, —a health-preserving aud vigor-im
parting education of the body.
To be more explict, we would say, in the first
place—if circumstances give the iroedom of choice
—do not send children of an early age to school.
Tho many hours’ confinement, tho frequout clsse
atmosphere, aud the constrained posture connect
ed with most schools for young children, can but
be injuriou to their health. Theirtune would be
far better employed iu acquiring, by almost con
stant exercise; the bone aud muscle which they
will want in future life. The above objection,
however, does not altogether apply to infant
schools, which, when prouerly conducted, espe
cial'y provide for the physical training of the
scholars, combining healthy play with learning,
and are generally opened and well ventilated. It
is a source of rejoicing, that parents whose time
and energies are so occupied that they cannot at
.end to tho well-training ol their children at home,
are enabled so advantageously t© secure it abroad.
Were all schools for older children conducted on
the same principle, (as they might be,) so as to
carry out a system of thorough physical as well as
mental instruction, and to encourage, rather than
repress bodily activity, the moral and intellectual,
as well as tho physical results, would be most
blessed.
“W hat would you advise that boys and girls
should grow up idle dunces ?”
By no means. But lot it be borne in mind, that
there itreduiiecs, aud groat dunces too, umong
those who can read and write, as well as among
those who cannot. There arc educated, as well as
uneducated dunces, and among the former will bo
found many who, at one time, were thought to be
maivels of precocious cleverness.
“1 don’t know what to do with this child,” said
an anxious mother, the other day. “Two years
ago she got on so nicely with her book. She could
read almost anything, and seemed so foud of it;
; a. d now, 1 cannot got her to learn a syllable ; and
it is such work to make lior go to school.”
The child was a poor little stunted thing of six
or seven years old. She looked pale, sickly and
melancholy. She had evidently been over school
ed.
‘What shall 1 do wi‘h her V continued the
mother.
‘Lock up her books,’ replied the friend thus
appealed to; ‘release her from school for a few
mouths ; give her plenty ol" exercise in your nice
garden here. Keep her as much as you can in
the pen »ir; and take my word for it. all will
come ught attain iu good time. l)o not be a f raid
| ol her becoming a dunce. She wants health and
strength now; a year or two hence, she will waut
learning.’
Many a child we firmly believe, has been blight
cl in intellect, in having its young and weak pow
ers, too severely tasked. It is well, in all cases, to
avoid extremes; bat, as a general rule, a course
of school education commenced at eight vears of
age, vastly more satisfactory in its results than
one begun at four.
Later from the Rio Grand©.
The Revolution in Tamaulifas.—Our previous
advices from Matamoros were to t e 22d nit. We
now have the Brownsville Fiag, of tho 26th. It
adds little to our Stock of information as to the
progress of the revolution in Tamaulij as. The
following is all we find on tho subject •.—Picayune,
loth inst.
We have been unable to learn anything reliable
during tho pa.-t week, from tho scene of opera
tions across the river. Rumor has it that battles
has been fought between the forces; aud that same
rumor gives the victory to both sides, according to
prejudices of tho narrator. We are inclined to the
belief, however, that it there has been fighting at
all, wuich is probable, the victory has not been
with the regular troops, from the tact that we
havo heard none of that rejoicing m Matamoros
which is uv c r eure to t filow the slightest success.
T: e eoncm :os bells of theiathedrais of that city
Lave man.mined a deathlike silence for the past
w jek, and there lias been no booming of cannon,
as heretofore, which is of itself convincing proof
to us that success has not been with the regular
forces.
It is said that a small reinforcement of 400 men
had arrived for Gen. Woll at the mouth of the
Rio Grande. We believe this rumor is true; but
it is not certain that they will be enabled to reach
Matamoros in safety, as it is believed that an in
surgent force, under Col.Capistran is in waiting to
cut them cxl so soon as they shall take up ttieir
line of march.
We heard it stated yesterday, though wi*h what
truth we know not, 'tfial Gen. Woll had been
formally demanded to surrender the city of Mata
moros iuto the hands of the insurgents. We can
place no re.iance in any of these conflicting ru
mors, however, and can only give them ts we
have ourselves received them.
Contributions fob the Sick.—lt affords us pleas
ure—of which we have but little theee sad days
to state, that contributions are liowing in from all
quarters, for the relief of the destitute sick
amongst us. We have received S6O through
Messrs. Hunter A Gammell, contributed by citi
zens of Savannah now in Augusta. Mr. David F.
Halsey, of this city, an invalid himself, sends us
SSO for himself and daughter. From Mr. David
A. va-on, of Albany, Ga., an old subscriber to the
Republican, we have received $25; and a stranger
to us, Mr. A. B. G. Smetzer, who passed a few
days in Savannah some years ago and was kindly
treated, sc ds m a check for s2jo, to bo given to
widow* and orphans in distress.
. The City ouncil of Augusta has appropriated
SI,OOO for our destitute sick, and a committee has
been appo -itsd to solicit private subscriptions for
the same object. We learn also, that a chock has
been received from Columbus for SI,OOO, with tho
assurance that more would be forthcoming when
that was exhausted.
Since penning tne foregoing, we have been in
formed that Mr. Wm. B. Hudgsou, of this city
n»w absent, has sent $500; Mr. George Hall sends
$250; Dr. Howard sends S2OO, and others, we
understand, whose names have not transpired, are
contributing freely.
The City Council of Macon has given SSOO, and
the noble hearted citizens of that place have con
tributed in their individual capacity about $2,100.
Ail this is noble and humane, and if the sick and
the dying could coin their hearts into thanks, wo
are sure they would lay them all at the feet of
their benefactors, individual and corporate. Like
bread cast upon the waters, tLis churity will re
turn to the giveis al a future day—if not here,
then elsewhere, iu a land where there is neither
tempest nor pestilence.— Sav. Republican, 14 tk inst.
Six at a Birth. — lt was announced somtimo
since tha'. a woman in Ohio had given birth to Bix
children at one time. The particulars of the allair
we find in tho Dayton Gazette.
A German woman in a one-horse wagon passed
through this city on Tuesday, going from her resi
dence; u few miles west of town, on a visit, to her
hu.-buiid, wliOj had been takon sick at tho place
where he was working in the country east of town.
She had with her in tho wagon, snnggly propped
up in a wine basket, six childron, all tho product
cl one birth. Thoy were not much bigger than
appledumpling -,gbut seemed to bo wido awake
and kicking. They wore six months old, and all
as near of a siz j as possible, except tho runt of tho
petty, which is doeribed as being the smallest
mortal of its age ever seen. We state this case
with serious misgivings of its truth, relating it as
it came to u at second hand f rom an eye witness—
a lady of character in this city, who saw and
counted the children and had the mother’s
word that they were all her’s at a single
birth. Triplets happen iu some countries
as often as ; once iu every 4500 births ; in this
country net so often. There are many well attes
ted cases of five childron at a birth ; but so far as
our research extends there is only one case record
ed of ‘fix at a birth, and about that case there is
much doubt. It happened in the day of Dr. Haro,
an emiuant French surgeon and writer, who died
in the year 1390. The mother who was tho wife
of Lord Malondomouro, died after delivery, and
but ono of the shildren lived, succeeding to his
ar tiior i titles andestates. The account given

The Augusta Mails. —lt is only 138 uiileß from
Savannah to Augusta; the two cities aro connect
ed by railway, over which two trains pass daily ;
yot there is no point in the Union, from Maine to
Texas, from which we do not receive our mails
more regularly. We have ceasod to look lor the
Augusta papers hall the time, especially the Chron
icle & Sentinel. As the mail bags are not opened
until they roach Savannah, wo are forced to the
conclusion that, the fault is in the Augusta Post
Office.— Savh. Jiep., 14 th inst.
We can hardly gainsay the closing judgment of
our cotomporary, and yot wo aro very loath of cen
sure any one undeservedly. Our papers are care
fully enveloped and directed, and handed to one
of the Post Office Clerks hero ovory evening before
six o’clock. Wo aro assured by the Post Master
that they aro safely deposited in tho mail bag for
Savannah, and whero tho fault rests now we can
not conjecture, but hope soon to discover.
Safety of the Delia Maria’s Passengers. —The
Charleston Courier of yesterday says: It is with
great pleasure that wo announce tho arrival in this
city yesterday afternoon of the Captain and crow
and passongors of the Delia Maria. They landed
at Hilton Hoad, and from thence proceeded to
Bluffton, from which place one of tho inhabitants
kindly sent them to Savannah, which city they
left on Tuesday morning. Mr. E. W. Walter’s
son went to Beaufort from Bluffton.
Bagging, Rope Ac.
Wo are requested to call the attention of dealers
to the sale of Bagging and Kope, by S. C. k Gronville
& Co., this day, on tho wharf, from tho steamer
Fashion.
We regret to learn that a letter was received in
Charleston yesterday, dated the 12th instant, an
nouncing that tho Cholera had made its appearance
on several Rico Plantations on tho Carolina side
of the Savannah Kiver.
Death of Maj. John C. Allen. —The Hamburg
Pionoer announces the death on Friday last of Maj.
J.C. Allen, lato one of tho Representatives of
Barnwell District in the Legislature.
It is reported that tho Catharine Augusta, a bark
of about four hundred tons, sailed on Friday
last from Now York, on a secret expedition. Sho
has a large number of Georgo Law’s muskets on
board, a fair supply of ammunition, and is said to
bo manned by as daring a crew as ever left Ameri
can waters—men fit for any bold or hazardous en
terprise. Tho propcilor, Benjamin Franklin,
which is understood to bo in some way connected
with the affair, is still in port, but will sail in a
few days.
Female Physicians. —Tho Massachusetts Legis
lature, at its last session, appropriated funds to the
Now England Female Medical College, located in
Boston, to pay tho tuition of forty students an

There have been 21 deaths from Yellow Fever
for the past 24 hours.
J. L. Dawson, M. D. C. K.
Emigration to tho United States this year, it is
thought, will reach four hundred thousand. By
census of 1850, the population tothe United States
was over twenty three millions of which eighteen
millions were native whites, over two millions were
foreign born, thirty nine thousand were of un
known nativities, and three millions two hundred
thousand were slaves. From 1840 to 1850,1,569,850
foreigners came to our shores. From 1820 to ISBO
the average number was only 20,000 a year, From
ISBO to 1546, about 70,000 a year. Tho Irish fam
ine and continental revolutions in 1847, increased
tho emigration to 240,000 in 1547, and to 8t)0,000
in 1850. Tho total cumber of emigrants to the
United States since 1790, and living in 1850, to
gether with descendants, amounted, (whon the
census was taken,) to 4,304,416. Tho great num
ber of deaths among foreigners in the United States
is appalling, and average, it is thought, at least
fifty per cent.
The Pickcus Keowce Courier of the 9th inst.,
says : “Wo learn that a discovery of both copper
and gold has been made on the place recently pur
chased by Mr. Knhtmau, of Charleston, which lies
on Village creek in this District—better known as
the Fitzgerald place. Mr. Lieber, a scientific gen
tleman from Cnarloston, has been testing the
mines with, we aro pleased to hear, every prospect
of a profitable result. Ho has also been testing
the gold mines in Cheobee, but with what success
we are unablo to say.

Musical. —Grisi seems to have aroused more en
thusiasm by her second performance than by the
first. Indeed criticism begins to be ashamed of
itself to have stopped the way and demand the
pass word of the acknowledged empress of tho
realm song, Tho N. Y. Commercial Advertiser
says:
Madame Grisi, after twenty years of triumph in
her profession in Europe, is perhaps tho most ac
complished and experienced prima donna in the
world, and her voice, with all the skill of long
practise, retains the sweetness of youth. Bignor
Mario—tho famous Kubini boing dead—is indis
putably the finest tenor on the operutic stage.—
Most of tho Italian vocalist previously hoard here
wore more imitators of tho school of which these ar
tists aro tho head, and yet thoro are few of them
who have not been enthusiastically praised. It
would bo strange, indeed, if the masters of the art
were not more successful than tho pupi.s.
Editorial Personalities. —Tho inultitudo of
readers, (sensibly remarks the Richmond Penny
Post,) take but little in tho criminations and re
criminations which fill column after column of a
newspaper, day after day. A vast variety of sub
jects, tho growing demands of this progressive
ago and rapidiiy of operations rendered necessary,
have saddled upon tho editors back duties of
higher, noble calling, more responsible, moro im
perative than waging newspaper wars. Personal
altercations may interest many of the readers of
a paper, but they do not interest the majority and
they aro fast becoming more honored in tho broach
than in tho observance. The public have not tiino
nor taste for them, tho editor has no time, if ho is
faithful to his editorial calling.
Senator Douglas, tho groat champion of the Ne

a public speech at Indianapolis.

Weather, Crop*. Ac.
The Trinity (Catahoula Parish) Advocate, oi the

disposition to shed, and the loss on the Black
River plantations is already estimated at one-third
of the crop a short time ago expected.
The Richmond (Madison Parish) Journal, of the

A recent trip through portions of tho parishes
ot Carroll, Morehouse and Ouaclrta, has satisfied
us that the crop will be short in theßO parishes.—
There will boa great scarcity of corn, and cotton
will fall far below tho average. In portions of
this parish tho cotton crop is excellent, in others
very indifferent. Corn has turned out very badly
as a general thing.
The Clayton (Ala.) Bannor, cf the 2d inst., says :
The corn crop is now made, and will turn out a
little moro than the last crop. There is sufficient
made to satisfy pressing necessity, provided it is
used economically. Many of our farmers aro now
nsing this years’ crop, and there will be such a
draft upon it, that wo may expect corn to sell at
about the sums price it has brought this year, that
is, one dollar per bushel in the fall and winter,
and one dollar and twenty-five cents in tho spring.
Tho cotton crop, which looked so promising in
Juno, has boon so much injured by the heal and
drought, that it lias fallen tar below what was an
ticipated at that time. The wood stopped grow
ing about the middle of August, tho blooms com
menced falling, and the cotton began to shed.—
Last season tho cotton made all through Septem
ber, but this year there appoars to be very few
blooms, and tho “top ciop,” which is the latest,
promises very littlo if anything. While all kinds
of lands have suffered terribly, the best cotton
lands have been immensely injured by the rust.
Last year it was estimated that thirty thousand
bags of cotton was sent to market from this coun
ty—this year we cannot reasonably expect to send
more than twenty thousand, so that the cotton
crop is cut off one-third.
Tho Somerset (Ky.) Gazette sayß there no long
er exists u hopo that there will be made even a half
crop of corn in that part of the State. In fact,
in some localities the crop will not be up tc a
fourth.
Tho Lexington (Ky.) Statesman says the corn
crop thereabouts is very seriously injured by the
long continued drought.
Tho Fayetteville Observer loams from a gentle
man who recently traveled through seventeen of
tho uppor counties of North Carolinu, that there
is every prospect of an unusually fine crop of corn.
A letter from Asheville, Buncombe county, says
there is no mistake about good crops in that sec
tion of North Carolina.
Tho Albany (Ga.) Patriot, of the Ist inst., re
ports very warm weather with occasional showers
health excellent, and crops good—some few plan
ters complaining of tho rust in cotton.
Tho Bt. Louis Intelligencer says that the crops
in Southwestern Missouri will not yield one
fourth of their average quantity. Flour in that
section is worth $lO per barrel, and corn meal
$1.25 per bushel.

Death ot the Rev. Jotihua U. l'aytie.
I’, is with feelings of deep regret and heartfelt
sympathy that we aro calleu upon to record the
sudden death of this young and promising Minis
ter of the Gospel. Although our personal ac
quaintance with Mr. P. was but slight, yet even
slight as it was, it was formed under such cireum
stances as to give us a most exalted opinion of
him as r. gentleman and Christian Minister. It is
with melancholy pleasure that wo give place to
tho following, from tho pen of one who shared
his labors, and whoso attention to him in his sick
ness and dying hour were unwearied and full of
affectionate kinJuess:
“Mr, Payne was placed in charge of Wesley
Chape), by the last Georgia Conference of tho
Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and fell a
victim, in tho discharge of his pastoral duties, to
the prevailing epidemic, having breathed his last
on tho morning of tho 12th inst., at 10 minutes
past 2 o’clock. Mr. P. was but a few mouths over
24 years of ago, with an apparently long and
promising future, and bright earthly career before
him, this boing but his second year in the minis
try. He graduated at Emory College, in this State,
and was a Georgian by birth, education and sym
pathy.
“This being his first summer in our city, in
consequence of which, not boing acclimated, he
was frequently urged to take care of himself, as
he was on account of want of acclimation, more
susceptible ot contracting disease; to which he
would invariably respond, “ Savannah is as near
to Heaven as any other place I know of.” The
day before his death, ho requested that when he
diod his home ones might be informed that “ho
fell at his post.” At the same time he remarked,
that ho had not previously supposed that he would
havo been taken from earth so soon ; but that
God’s will was his will, and that had he ten thous
and lives, ho would devote them all to his Master’s
service. He said also, that ho esteemed it a privi
lego and an honor to have shared the post of dan
ger, disease aud deuth ; “ for,” added ho, “it has
proven a pasture grouud to my soul.” This was
the burden of a message to be delivered to his
follow-members of Conference at their next ses
sion.
“Wo refrain from pauogyrio. His noble con
duct in attending tho poor, the sick, the needy,
and tho afflicted, everywhere throughout the city,
day and night, iniuistering to their souls and
bodies, with, a self sacrificing zeal and yot a calm,
unobtrusive aud humble demeanor, would only
be detracted from by any attempt at eulogy.
gj“ He lived to do good; much, very much of
wnich ho was instrumental in accomplishing dur
ing tho short time permitted him in his ministerial
career. He has gone to his reward! His best
epitaph is that which ho himself suggested, not 24
hours before his dissolution, and in the full pros
pect of death, as follows;
‘Joshua G. Payne,
Born (naturally) January 4th, 1830,
Born agaiu (spiritually) Sept. 26th. 1847.
‘ He is not dead, but sleepoth.’ ”
Death of Bishop Barron.—The Rt. Rev. Edward
Barron, D. D., Cutholio Missionary Bishop of tho
Coast of Africa, died in this city yestorday, of
Pnoumouia. In consequence ot impaired health
Bishop Barron was on leave of absence from his
charge, and had boon temporarily residing in
Florida. On his way to tho North, a few wooks
since, ho stopped in this city. Whon tho opidomic
broke out he concluded to remain to render such
service as circumstances might require. Until at
tacked with the disease of which ho died ho had
been instrumental of much good in our midst.
He was originally attached to the diocese of Balti

A Semi-Monthly Steam Line between Franoe
and America.— Among the passengers arrived on
1 hursday last on board of tho Africa, was Captain
P. Lefebvre, who comes, it is said, to the United
States on account of the great trans-Atlantic coui
£any, organized in Franco about a year ago. Mr.
lefobvro represents as a decided fact the'eroatiou
of a now line of steamers to run twice a month be
tween Havre aud New York, to commence on tho
15th of November noxt with the screw steamers
of Cunard Company. Nevertheless wo must say
that inquiries made in other quarters are unfortu
nately far from showing this state of things to bo
so near at hand. Moreover, Mr. Lefebvre is said
to have power to contract for a certain number of
steamers instead of tho lines which the General
Trans-Atlantic Company has taken tho charge of
organizing between France and several ports of
South America. —Gourrier des Fiats Unis , 9thinst.'
Wo have regretfully to announce the death yes
torday of John Michel, Esq., from a sudden stroke
of apoplexy. Mr. Michel has served usefully for
years as Magistrate for those two Parishes, as well
as filled other public trusts creditably. —Charleston

A Male and Female Academy Tale.
The Knickerbocker Magazine for September has
the following, relating how a Professor was soH.
A correspondent relates how at a “Male and Fe
male Academy” suudry couples had broken the
rule which prohibited the caged birds to associate.
And at length it had come to the oars ot the fa
culty that such was tho case, and that on sundry
occasions pairs, male and female, hod been obser
ved to ent> r the front gate of the yard from the
village street at unseemly hours of the night, in
d rect contravention of tho statute in such case
made and provided. This was a breach of dis
cipline ‘not to be tolerated by no manner of means’
and, as a romody, it was proposed in a solemn
convocation of the powers that wore, that one of
their number, whose room was conveniently situ
ated for the purpose, should keep careful watch
and ward, and that when ho see a guilty
pair approaching from their nocturnal violation of
tho law, ho should stealthily creep out, pounce
upon them, and having caught them \n jiagrante
delicto, they should, before the assembled school
oo made to feel tho terrors of the law.’
“This scheme soon became known to some of
tho sinners, and no sooner known thnn a counter
plot was hatched It was determined that one of
the boys Bhould array himself in the dress of a
lady, or in so much of a lady’s dross as he could
get, and ho knew how to got on; that another
young gentleman should accompany this counter
feit young lady upon an evening’s walk, and that
when they returned they should tako good care to
be seen by the official spy.”
To obtain tho necessary materials for a disguise,
a descent was made upon the painting room;
whore tho youug ladies kept tho gurments which
they used while pursuing their studies: there a
gown, shawl, and hood were procured, and with
these wo made what served our turn for a lady on
the occasion ; not very gracolul, certainly, nor cal
culated for close inspection, but, ‘she’ did, as the
sequel showed. Thus equipped, the lady and her
attendant gentleman sallied forth !
“It was about eleven o’o ock of a beautiful sum
mer’s evening; the moon shone brightly in the
mid-heaven, and not a sound was to be hoard save
the faint chirp of the cricket, or tho far off bark of
some sleepless cur. The faintest foot-fall was
painfully distict. The guilty pair passed through
the front gate in the village street, and in a lew
minutes returned, as it had been arranged that
they should bo detected ot this stage of their crime.
As they entered the gate, a signal was made by
one of the conspirators to attract the attention of
the official look out.
He upproached the window of his room, looked
out, when, lo to his eager gaze, in plain sight, ap
poared the offending pair, apparently unconscious
of their danger, and enjoying with great gusto
their stolen interview. He quietly slipped out of
his room and passed down to tho steps in front,
and there, in tho shadow of the building, awaited
their approach. Tho pair stop about mid-way of
tho yard and seem to bo gazing up at the stars.
The guardian of the night grows impatient, and
saunters slowly towards thorn. They commence a
slow retreat. He quickens his step, and they keep
their distanco. Ho grows furious at the audacious
attempt to escape, and breaksintoa desperate run.
“Aud now commenced a ruee, tho like of which
I may never hope to see again. The lady and her
attendant gentleman tafie to bight like startled
deer. The steps of the pursuer and pursued re
sounded through tho deserted street like the
chargiugof a squadron of horse. On, on, they
flew ; the pursuer gains; the gallantry of the gen
tleman loaves him, and with it ho leaves the lady ;
and now, poor thing! what shall she do? The
foot steps behind her grow moro distinct every
moment; sho strains every nerve, bat her dress
impedes her steps ; it will not do ; she must
either yield to her late or else adopt a desperate
and last resort. And then, in her frenzy throwing
aside all maiden modesty, sho seizes the skirts ot
her dross, and quickly drawing them up around
her waist, with freed iimbs she darts away, and is
soon beyond the roach of pursuit'.
And the pursuer ? There he stands, the picture
of astonishment and chagrin. Whon he saw the
first upward movement of that lady’s dress, he had
stopped, (he was a modest man,) transfixed with
horror at the idea that such depravity should exist
and be displajed before his face and eyos ; aud
next, as tho upward movement displayed a pair of
stout calf skin boots and cassimero pantaloons, the
conscio. sness of having been ‘sold’ flashed over
his mind aud completed his discomfiture ; which
was in no wise diminished by three hearty cheers
from the throats of the young scamps who hud
bought him so cheaply. He crept back to his room
‘a sadder but a wiser man.’
The Year 1854.
The memory of the present year will linger long
and painfully in the hearts of men. Turning in al
most any direction, tho eye is met with the traces
of peslilonce, desoiationand death. In tho West
Indies, tho dread Cholera has mowed down its
thousands ; and in tho Island of Barbadoes, above
seventeen thousand victims in the last few mouths,
sadly attest the might and power ol’ it« arm. On
the shores of the Exuine and Baltic, from tl e
ranks of tho various armies marshalled for glory
and conquest, one hundred thousand soldiers have
fallen bj tho same unseen, yet resistless foe. They
havo boon domed even the hero’s desperate wish,
of dying at the caunon’s month, with the music
of battle sounding in his ears; but ingloriously,
in the dense and plague-seated hospital, they have
made tho last sacrifice to fame aud country.
Aud at ourowu door, what a spectacle 1 The
lust fail and winter were almost unprecedented in
the destruction of life and property by flre-> in the
Northern cities, and by storm aud shipwreck along
the extended path of Commerce. It cannot bo
forgotten, how, day alter day, we were called on
to chronicle the loss of some noble ship, gone
down, with her crew and cargo, to the chambers of
tho deep. Spring returned, and with it the labors
and the hopes of the husbandman. The seasons
wore propitious, aud all things promised abnnd
anco. In South Carolina, never before did the
prospects seem brighter. Cotton, Rice, and the
provision crops, all looked well. And this condi
tion of things continued with but little change
until one week ago, when a storm unparalleled in
the memory of the present generation swept over
us, leaving in its track desolation and ruin. In
our city, its work is to be seen in almost every ob
ject which meets the eye, while from the country
every mail brings in the nrnst sickening tidings of
loss and destruction. The Rice crop is cut off one
half. The Sea Island Cotton fields are strewn with
their just maturiug fruit. The entiro Low Coun
try of Carolina and Georgia has been severely and
bitterly visited.
But our disasters have not stopped here. A
worse calamity is upon us in the ravages of the
Yellow Fever. Our sister city of Savannah has
been a lazar-house for a number of weeks past.—
Her people has fled by thousands from the jaws of
tho unsparing pestilence, and stand afar off, watch
ing, while it swoeps away the few who remain. It
is a spectacle to excite tho deepest sympathy, and
call forth our best ail. Charleston in abundant
gratitudo be it spoken, has thus fur been less
sorely stricken. But it is impossible to note
the hearses which aro constantly wending their
sad way through our stcets, and every day more
frequent, without feeling that wc too, aro afflioted.
Our season, which opened with such fair promise,
hn* been durkenod by a cloud of misfortune. When
wo thus sum up our soirows, wo aro reminded of
the history of Job, as messenger after messenger
followed eaoh other in quick succession, with
their tales of disaster and distress.— Ch. Mercury,
14 th inst.
W hat Causes the Gulf Stream.— Mr. Stanton
Shoales, an experienced navigator, gives it as his
opinion that tho waters of tho Gulf stream are
nothing moro or less than tho water of the river
Amazon. This groat father of water is beded
more than 1,000 miles immediately under the
equator, and all its tributary streams for many
thousand miles are constantly pouring their hot
water into tho mighty reservoir of water. As
these waters aro gathered in under tho burning
sun of the equator, it is extremely warm; far more
so than the Atlantic Ocean water under the equa
tor. This great body of heatod water shoots out
into tho Atlantic moro than a hundred miles, in
the face of eternal trade winds.
Tho Amazon is sixty miles wide, after being
bolted in its irrosistablo course, it curves off to the
left and scuds off' beforo the strong trado winds
till out of their reach. Driven along with great
force, it takes its course round tho great bay form
ed between the two continents of North and South
America. Dashing along tho Northorn coast of
South America, and passing to tho leeward of tho
West India Islands, it leaves the shore of Cuba, and
proceeds along the shores of klorida, .the capes of
Virginia and the South coast of North America
and passing the shores of Newfoundland ends its
mission, among the icobergs which float out of
tho Northern oceans. Cut off the Gulf Stream
and it would not be many years before tho North
Atlantic would bo very destructive to naviga
tion. But a wise Providence has provided an
external rose voir of hot water constantly rush
ing around over back of the cold Atlantic to its
destination, where, after spending its vital warmth
among the icebergs it is hurried away by a new
supply of native warm water fro n the great Ama
zon. Seamen can always tell when in or out of
tho Gulf Stream by dipping the hand in the water
alongside.
Undoubtedly this view will bo new to some read
ers, but wlmt I have written is from] experience,
aud was seen while 1 was roving upon tho mighty
deep. Tho Gulf Stream, I repeat, is nothing
more or less than the waters of tho great Amazon
of South America. 1 havo crossed it in many
places, and for many years have glided through
its warm water, always pleased to have it astern.
The most violent storms’ from whatever quarter
tbey* , may come, never change its course or its
current, but it continues to move on in that irres
restible power which was given to it in tho begin
ning by ihe power above.
