TO DELINQUENTS.
In a few weeks we shall commence
striking from our list of subscribers,
the names of those who have not
paid in advance. This is our only
means of protection, for the low
price of our paper will not justify the
very heavy expense of sending out
Agents, and too many ot our sub
scribers seem to have no idea of
punctuality in the payment ot their
indebtedness. Those, therefore, who
may fail to receive their papers, will
be at no loss to account for tbe
cause.
VVe shall proceed as rapidly as
possible to send Bills to all those in
debted, and if they are not promptly
paid, the paper will he discontinued.
The Columbia. Bank Cate*.
It will be seen by reference to tbe letter of W.
Dougherty Esq., the Counsel for the paintiffs in
the long standing cases against the broken Banks,
or rather swindling shops of Colutnbus, that only a
sit gle branch of those cases has been settled—(those
agtiinst the planters and Mechanics’ Bank) —while
the suits against all tbe others are still pending
It was in the abjudication cf one of these cases, be
fore the Supreme Court, that Judge Henry L. Ben
msg, acquired hie unenviable notoriety—and as he
is seeking a re-election to his seat on the Supreme
Bench, it would be well for those Legislators, who
desire to elevate the standing of that Court before
the Country, to look well to the matter.
FerliliitcrK.
We are gratified to observe that tbe use of Fer
tilizers in dressing the over-cultivated and worn
out lands of Georgia is coming more and more into
favor. These who adopt this system of improve’
men!, in prefereuce to breaking up Song cherished
associations, relinquishing the comforts of home
which they have accumulated around themselves
by years of toil, and removing to Texas or Arkan
sas, or purchasing new land ia a distant section of
the State, will in time find that they h&va acted
wisely, and mace money by the operation. The
various lines of railroads are dc-iug all in their power
to promote and foster this spirit of agricultural im
provement, by reducing the freight on all kinds oi
manufactured and imported fertilizers, well know
ing that it will ultimately conduce to their interest,
in tee ir.cretssd amount of agricultural products
which will be transported to market.
Wt have previously mentioned the establishment
of agencies in Augusta for the sale of several of
these fertilizers, and their advertisements may be
found in cur columns. Mr. J. C. Dawson, we
natioe. has recently secured the agency for the sale
of ‘-Jarvis Jfc Bauer’s Island Guano,’’from the
South Pacific Ocean, imported by the American
Guano Company. This is a well known
and has been long in use, but without any indorse
ment as to its merits, we will simp'y refer those in.
ferreted to the testimonials in possession of Mr D ,
giving the experience of those who have tried the
Guano. Mr. D. is also ageut for the “Columbian
Phosphate Guano," and the “Brown Mexican A.
A, Guano." For further particulars see advertise
ment.
Southern Fruit. —They who would anticipate
the ripening of the peach in this c! mate, raust needs
depend upon at tbe South ; but few who
thus please their palates with Georgia or S<u*h
Carolina importations are aware that, until within
a few years, all peaches eaten at the South had to
be obtained at the Noi llr. The same was true of
apples and pears, and of grapes, to a certain extent.
Previous to 184 b, little or no attention had been
paid to fruit-growing ia tbe South, and nurseries
weie unknown. The idea was prevalent that the
sunny climate of the South was not adapted to the
culture ot fruit of certain kinds, because they were
not indigenous to that region. Experiment, how
ever. ha- proved satisfactorily to the contrary, and
orchards and nurseries for every description of
fruit are now to be found in all the more Southern
ri'atee Une of the largest establishments of tbe
kind is at Natchez, Mississippi. It is believtd that
upwards of one thousand acres are now devoted
to trees that were unkuowu there twenty years
ago ; aud these are trees not only peculiar to colder
climates, but to more tropical regions. Os the latter,
most varieties are as yet raised only in limited
quantities; but it is to be hoped that the preeeDt
zeal for iruit culture that animates the South will
so increase the produce of the»e luxuries, that out
of their abundance they will soon be able to spare
a portion tor their less favored neighbors at the
North. — N. i T . Jovr. of Com .
We clipped the above from a Sjutheru exchange,
10 which we found it without comment. The old men
of the South, who have feasted tor “three scores
years and ten,” and even longer, upon much finer
peaches tLaa were over grown, or can be grown at
the North, wilt be quite surprised to learn that
“ until vukin a fete yearn, all peaches eaten at the
.'south Lad to be obtained at the North /"
This is certainly a wonderful discovery of the
“Journal of Commerce'' and betrays a great want
of knowledge on a subject cn which it professed to
enl'ghtea tbe public. Tbe truth is, that a man, who
has only ea‘en Northern peaches, does not know
what a really fine peach is, and never will, until he
has traveled South aud plucked a peach in its full
maturity from the tree and tasted its quality.
Fci-ioua Accident.
The friends of Mr. Russell, in this city, will read
with sincere regret, the following announcement,
which we copy from the Grifiin “Empire State" of
the 19th inst. They will, however, be pleased to
learn that although among comparative strangers
those attentions hero much needed, have not been
withheld. They could not have been more worthi.

sympathies and kind offices of tbe good people Os

Dangerous Accident. —On Saturday evening
lest, Mr. William Ru eel cf Augusta, stepped into
the Tel- graph office in thie city and while preparing
a dispatch at the table ot U e operator, a large cam
phene lamp, the top ot which, is though to have
been out of older, exploded casting the liquid tire
in every direction and about the person of Mr. Rus
sell who was instantly wrapped in flames and se
verely burned about the face, bands and neck
To Lis own presence of mind in keeping closed h e
mouth and eyes, as also that of the operator in
throwing up u him on overcoat, thus smothering
the flames, may he attribute escape from more fatal
consequences With many others we have called
upon tor Russell at his lodgings, where he has every
desired attention, and more than gratified were we
to find Lim doing well —enduring patiently, and
reasoning as a pbiiosipner. Lei this be another to

iNTKOaUCTXON OF STEAM ON THE DELAWARE
and Htnaos Canal. —On Wednesday last a steam
canal boat started from llondout on the Delaware
aud Hudson Canal, with tbe intention of proceed

a load of coal and return. This is intended as a
trial trip, and if it succeeds we may expect to see
steam canal boats used on this canal altogether;
t he boat is from the Erie Canal.

Details of the Insurrectionary .Movement* ot
Hurpes's Ferry, ' a »
Tbe principal features of the recent startling out
break at Harper’s Ferry, Va., have already been
received by telegraph, but we subjoin such particu
lars and details of interest as we bud in our Balti
more and Richmond exchanges.
The first movement of tbe insurgents, it seems,
was to sever the telegraph wires, and arrest the
departure of railroad trains, thus preventing the
transmission of speedy intelligence. A dispatch
from Frederick, Ya., to Baltimore, conveyed the
first intimation of the state ot afiaira al the beny.
The regular passenger train from the West subse
quently arrived ai Baltimore, (about twelve o’clock
Monday,) having been detained some six hours
Harper’s Ferry by the insurgents. The Baltimore
American ooutains the following statements :
Statement of a Passenger.— From a gentle
man well known in this city, who came passenger
in the Western train, reaching Baltimore about
noon yesterday, we have the following account:
The express train in which our informant was
pavsenger, reached Harper’s Ferry about 1 o'clock
tbis morning On arriving, the clerk of the W&ger
House informed Capt. Phelps, conductor of the
Iraiu, that serious trouble was existing in the town,
and there were gr. at apprehensions of danger.
He stated tha' a large body of men Lad mysteri
ously came into towu during tbe evening and night
from the surrounding country, aud were about to
take possession of the place—that they had already
shot one man dead aud mortally wounded another,
both of w hom were connected with the railroad
company as watchman and baggage ageut, or pa
trol watchman.
Another person was ascertained to have beau
severely wounded, and being missed it was thought
he had been thrown into the river. The insutrec
tionists when they approached the conductor of the
train were armed with muskets, aud notified him in
the most peremptory manner that if h« attempted
to proceed farther it would be at the risk of his life.
The bridge across the Potomac was ti led with the
insurgents, all of whom were armed. The conduct
or deemed it most prudent to remain, as he feared
some terrible accident in attempting to cross the
bridge, supposing its arches or timbers might have
been cut.
Every light in the town had been previously ex
tinguished by the lawless mob. The train, there
fore, remained stationary, and the passengers, terri
bly affrighted, remained in the cars all night.
A countryman who had come into the town with
s wagon load of wheat, was arrested by the insur
gents and pressed into their service.
It w as stated that a large number of muskets and
considerable ammunition were found in his wagon,
which they armed themselves with. It is thought
this was a blind to procure arms, and fully under
stood by the outlaws as a part of the r plan.
All tbe streets were iu possession ot the mob, and
every road, lane aud avemie leading to the town
guarded or barricaded by them.
The men were seen In eveiy quarter with muskets
and bayonets. It was thought that there w ere not
less than from 250 to 300 of the insurgents. They
arrested every citizen they oeuld find, arul upon
threats of death pressed them into their service.—
Tnis was done without respect to persons including
many negroes.
This done, tne United States Arsenal, the govern
ment pay house, iu which, it is said, a large amount
of money was deposited on Saturday, including,
I also, all the other public works, were taken posses
eiou ot by the mob. appropriatii g to themselves
arms, ammunition and other weapons of defence.
Some were of opinion that the object was one of
plunder, to 10b the goveiument oi the funds. A full
w;-gon load of guns were given from the arsenal to
be'ligeernts outside.
The Captain of the outlaw hand, ora person who
seemed to be prime mover, was a middle aged man
with grey hair, beard and moustache. II te name
1 was signed to a paper or note, as Andreas, or some
1* thing similar thereto.
He assumed to he the chief of the iueurreetioulsfa,
and was heard to eay, iu addressing the conductor,
that "if you knew m • and understood uny motives
as well as I and others understand them, you wou d
luct blame me so much
This person n!»o aucouuced iu a bold, date mined
i manner, that it ho was interfered with or resisted,
( his party would in.tautly set lire to the town aud
j destroy it with everything therein, lie likewise
threatened to burn down the railroad badge aud cut
off ail communication.
The citizens were in a terrible state of consterna
tion —most of them being shut up in their houses,
; and not a light to be sei-n in the streets c>r a«y-
I where around.
The belligerents seemed to evince no actual an
tipathy against the railroad. What government
f employees they could find wvre captured by them,
Sana pressed into their service, being forced under
threats to take up anas. In another speech tbe
i marauder chief was heard to exclaim; “It >gh
; knew my heart and history, you w. uld not blame
\ me.’’
| They were instantly placed iu the arsenal. The
!* insurgents exhibited indomitable boldness, and
declare they cannot be taken captive.
Our informant slates that tne consternation was
intense. It was difficult to divir.e the cause of this
outbreak or attack. Some are of opinion it was
a bold, concerted scheme to rob the government
pay house, of funds believed to have been deposit
ed there on Friday or Saturday previous. O hers
imagined it might have been a cemonstration ol
abolitiocis's connected with some negio sil lira.
About five or half past five o’clock this morning
the deputation of armed insurgents approached the
conductor, and gave him five minutes to start his
train aud cross the bridge He accepted tbe offer
and started, crossing the bridge in safety, though
with great fear?, through a dense throng of armed
marauders, who had taken possession ot it.
When our informant left, the whole town, gov
ernment works and everything else were iu the
Lands of the insurgents, who seemed to be gradual
ly receiving reinforcements, composed of negroes
and white men from the surrounding country.
One man was killed instanly ; another w ? as found
having been shot through the body and believed to
be dying. A good deal of firing was heard at dif
ferent surrounding points.
The negroes were aimed or given arms instantly
upon being pressed into the service of the outlaw
band. The ringleaders wire desperate and de
termined.
No passenger belonging to the railroad tram was
injured, nor did there appear to be any disposition
on the part of the outlaws to molest them beyond
detaining the cars. There were but few ladies on
board.
Statement cf Conductor Phelps and his
Officxrs —The following particulars of the affair
have been obtained from the officers of the train,
viz • Mr. Andrew J. Phelps, conductor; Mr. Jacob
Cromwell, baggage master, and Mr. Wm Wooley,
engineer. They state that their train (the regular
p.isseDger train from tbe West) reached a point near
t e bridge at Narpei’s Ferry at 20 minutes of one
o’clock this morning, when it was stopped.
Conductor Phelps received the following state
ment from a Mr. Phillips, one of the wa'chmen at
tbe bridge :
I started to take my post on the bridge a° watch
man, about 12 o clock , 1 Lad uot heard from the
man (nv.med Williamson) who was watching the
bridge up to that time. We usually hear from him
every brill-hour. When I arrived ou the other side
of the bridge I was suddenly challenged, and com
manded to stand or die. Four or five white men
raised their ritles and pointed them at me. One of
them to net my lantern. I turned and ran,
and they bred upon me. I escaped without injury.
The other watchman ehortly made his appear
anoe, and stated to Conductor Phelps that he had
been seized about !»| o’clock, and locked up in the
guard house at the other end of the bridge, and that
he had just made his escape.
Conducter Phelps, and the baggage master,
Cromweil, then entered the bridge, and bad hardly
got balf-way through when they were commanded
to stand, and three white men levelled rifles at
them They then retreated back, aud were fired
upon, but were not injured.
A colored man named Hayward Sheppard, who
is employed by the Railroad Company to attend to
the baggage at Harper’s Ferry, took off his shoes
arid made tbe attempt to get through the bridge to
see what was going on at the armories, but he was
discovered about the tints that Phelps and Crcm
well were fil ed upon, and they also tired upon the
negro. One of the balls took effect in his back,
going through bis body, and coming out of the
nipple cf his left breast.
A* first conductor Phelps was at a loss how to
act, and concluded to send over a person to the vi
cinity of the Ferry to aeceitain the cause of the
proceedings, when the leader of the party —a man
of rather prepossessing appearance, and supposed
to bo nearly eixty years of age—appeared, and
stated that be preferred bolding communication
with the conductor. Mr. Phelps went over alone,
and was told by the sauna rnan that he and his party
had determined not to allow another train to pass
over the road, but that they would give him five to
teu minutes to get his train through.
In the meantime, other persona from the train
ventured aeiosa the bridge above the Ferry, anu
soon coming iu contact with the rioters, (who were
reputed as about two hundred in number, half of
whom seemed to be black,) one i f the party, a pas
senger, was captured. The train was delayed by
the proceedings untii half past six o’clock, when
steam was raised aud they reached the Camden
station at noon to day.
Upon the train leaving, Mr. Phelps was particu
lai’ly requested by the leader of tbe gang to state to
the Superintendent of the Road, that under no cir
cumstances would another train be permitted to
pass Harper’s Ferry. Daring the night a large
twoboiee wagon, laden with wheat, came iu from
one of tbe neighboring counties cf the State. The
rioters immediately eeized the driver, took posses
sion of the wheat and loading the vehicle with
weapons from tha Armory, sent it back up tbe
country.
Tne engineer states that be took particular notice
of the crowd, which he thinks numbered at least
three hundred persons ; that amongst them were
several strapping negroes who occasionally shouted
out that they longed for liberty, as they had been
iu bondage long enough. The ringleader, who is
said to be named Anderson, made his appearance
at Harper’s Ferry five or six days ago, and since
that time has been driving aiound the place in an
elegant barrouobe drawn by two horses.
These offioers report that the United States
Armory and the neighboring country have been
taken poesei-s'on of by the rioters, all of v. horn are
well armed with abort rifles and Unit* d States arms.
When the workmen of the armory repaired there
for thepurpo.se of resuming woik they were seized
by the parties, forcibly dragged within the gates
aud imprisoned.
A number of the party proceeded to the proprie
tors of the hotel near the armory and in an authori
tative tone ordered breakfast for fifty or eixty
persons, adding that they were determined to
keep possession of the place, and live in the best
manner.
Monocacy Bridge, Get. 17, 9 P. M.~~leather
Simpson, the baggage master of the Western bound
train, which was turned back this morning, gives
the following particulars :
‘1 walked up to the bridge and was stopped by
the insurgents, but war afterwards permitted to go
up to see Captain Anderson, the commander of the
insurrectionists.
‘•I was then taken to the Armory, the Captain in
command of which was stained bill Smith, where I
was detained as a prisoner for more than three
hours. There was from five to six hundred negroes,
all well armed, and from two to three hundred white
men, wish them.
•‘Ait the houses were closed, and none of the in
habitants visible.
‘ After being released I went into the tavern kept
bp Mr. Chambers, and found about thirty inhabi
tants of Harper’s Kerry collected there with arms.
They said most of the inhabitants had left, but they
declined, declaring their purpose to protect them
selves. They stated that they had heard that five
or six citizens had been killed.’’
Mr. Simpson was escorted back over the bridge
by six negroes. He reported the trains with the
Frederick Military to be laying at, the Point ot
iiocks.
The train with the. Director sot the Pennsylvania
Railroad on boatd are on the other side ot Harper's
Fei ry.
Frederick, Oct. 17.— The engine and train from
here have just returned, being uuable to proceed
through Harper’s Kerry.
Your correspondent has just seen a letter from a
merchant of Harper’s Ferry, which was asnt by
two boys over the mountain, and who had to awim
the river to etcape the insurrectionists.
The letter states that most all the leading people
of Harper’s Ferry, are in jail, aud that several had
been killed.
The robbers have all the works in their possession,
and have taken the money from the vaults. The
Powder House is in their possession, and they will
not permit any one to leave the town.
F. Beckham, ths Railroad agent, wa3 shot twice
by the gang. They are said to be disguised—the
whites btii g paintt d as b a ks.
The attack was first made at 12 o'clock last night.
The watchman at the Railroad Depot weß shot
dead.
The movements of the various military forces in
the neighboring cities and towns, and their depar
ture forjtbe scone of the riot, have been sufficiently
detailed by telegraphic dispatches.
Col. Lee had been ordered to take command of
tire whole expedition by the Secretary of War.
The special correspondent of the Baltimore Sun
who accompanitd the detachment of military from
Baltimore, announces tiißir arriva’ at the Kerry :
Harper’s Kerry, Oct. 18— lA.M.—Train ar-
I rived and halted below town, where runners com
| muuicated the state ot affairs. The Jefferson
i county reg'ment had entered the town from the
V irginia side, and the Frederick troops crossed the
. bridge. There had been a good deal of tiring and
I some nine persons were killed.
Mr. Beckham, agent of Railroad Company, was
shot through and his murderer tell almost at the
same instant, pinned by a rile ball from a friend of
Beckham.
The troops Lave landed and are in the town. The
insurgents ;.re willing to surrender, but on terms of
sate conduct out of difficulty; otherwise they threat
en to eactifioe the lives of Lewis Washington and
Coi. Dacgeifield, w hom they ho!3 as prisoners.
At this hour (2 o’clock) we are compelled to go to
press.

The (’olimhliuh Bunk Canon.
Columbus, Oct. 18,1859.
Mr. Editor I find that the impression gene
: rally prevails that all tho "Bunk Cute*” —that Is,
j tire suite and claims of the billholdera and other
creditors of the broken Banks at this place have
been settled. This is a mistake. The tacts are
these : Last summer during the session of the Su
preme Court at Macon, a compromise was proposed
and the terms agreed on, so tar as the liability of
the Stockholders and Directors of the Planters’ and
i Mechanics’ Bank of Columbus was concerned. —
! That arrangeineut itself, has not as yet been sally
j carried out ; but it is being done,aud it is believed
will coon be consummated. When that is done, it
will not extend to any other Bank, nor embrace any
other liability, than that of the Stockholders and
Directors of that particular Bank to pay its debts.
The amount to be paid will not pay the debts
against that. Bank The creditor retains the balance
| of hie claim and the right of pursuing the aesets of
the Bank tor its satisfaction , which he is now doing,
aud for which suits ave pending.
There is tho Chattahoochee Railroad and Banking
Company, the old Bank of Columbus, the Bank of
St. Mary 's, and the Manufacturers' and Mechanics’
Bank, whose indebtedness and out ..ding liabili
ties in tho aggregate amount to two t r three hun
dred thousand dollars , and for the portion in bills
the stockholders are made liable by their respective
charters, except the Bank of St. Mary's. None of
these are embraced in, nor in any manner affected,
by the arrangement or compromise before alluded
Co. Many of the holders of theseclaiu.g are pressing
their collection —suits are pending against the
Stockholders and Directors of most, if not ail, of
these Banks, aud the rights and liabilities of the
parties have yet to lie adjudicated by the Courts.
I have deemed it not only just to the parties im
mediately interested, but also due the public, that
the erroneous impressions which seem to prevail on
this subject, should be corrected , and ask the
privilege of doing so through the columns of your
paper. Very respeefully, yours, <fce.,
W. Dough iery.
Useful Recipes. —Ti e following recipes have
been furnished to (he Rome Courier by two of its
c irrespondeuts. The first is from a lady of Cass
dimly, who has used it with eminent success, the
last from a gentleman of Forsyth county, who
speaks of its good effects from experience :
Hooping Cough Cordial. —Take four ounces of
the dry root, ur six ounces of (he fresh root of tho
Alarum Canadensis, (commonly called Wild Gin
ger, Colts Food, &c.,) biuiae it into coarse powder,
and pour one pint of boiling water upon it, in a tin
or other vessel, sot by the tire that it may be kept
hot—but not boiling—for three hours, koepiug the
vessel closely stopped or covered all the time.—
Then strain off the liquor through coarse linen or
cotton, pressing the mass well, to obtain all the
strength. Then add to the liquor as much Lois
Sugar as it: wiil dissolve, from one to two pounds.
Take a quarter of an ounce of Cochineal, bruise to
a coarse powder, and add to it, one-eighth ounce of
Saits of Tartar, pour upon this one gill of boiling
water, stir a few minutes and strain through thin,
coarse llaunel. Add the liquor to ths above, stir
ring well—keep in bottles closely stopped, inacooi
place.
Directions for Use.— To a child under G months,
one ti ird of a teaspooaful—from 0 to 12 months a
teaspoonful—from 1 to 2 years, a teaspoonful and a
half—from 2 to 5 years old, 2 teaspoonfuls, a dose,
to be given once an hour, once in two, three or four
hours, according to the severity of the disease.
The diet should be as near as possible that of
bread and milk. It the bowels are affected, rice
water, rice jelly or rice and milk.
P. S—We use the root of the plant, known as
the Heart Leaf.
Cure for Paralysis.— Use Peach Brandy day
and night in sufficient quantities to keep the blood
warm. The Brandy will aot upon the blood and
remove a oold phlegm that is mixed with the blood
and by destroying its action, causes the disease.
The peach brandy will purify the blood and send
back the phlegm to the stomach, and then take
purgative pills made of Rhubarb and Aloes, or some
other innocent purgative two or tbiee times per
week, which will remove the phlegm aud health
be restored. 1 had been troubled with a paralysis
for several years, most of which time I was confined
to my bed, and accideut led me to use these Medi
cines, and my heaitli has been quite restored. I
keep peach brandy by me now, and my health is
good.
Remarkable.—Sometime in March last an old
gentleman, residing for many years in Davie, was
sitting in b!s house, a few feet from an open win
dow, when a dove flew in and alighted on his shoul
der. He kept his Beat, but called his daughter, who
was in an adjoining room, to come quickly. She
came in, and pointing to the bird, he told her to
take if off and put it in a osge, and take good care
of it as long as it lived. She gently lifted the bird
off and caged it as directed, her father remarking to
her at the same time, “My race is nearly over; I
shall die in two weeks.” He was then in ordinary
health; but strange to say, he died that day two
weeks. The bird is yet in its cage, and in the pos
session of the family, who regard it with feelings of
peculiar sadness —Salisbury (AT. C) Watchman.
Jaii. Burnt. —The Jail of Clarke county at Wat
kinaville, was burnt on Thursday night "last am
seven prisoners, four negroes and three whim’men
made a very narrow escape. The prisoners have
been removed to Madison, Morgan county The
fire, it is thought, was the work of one of the m i*.
oners, —Athens 11 atchman.
Douglas cr a Black Republican.— When a
man m the South says that although he does not
approve of Senator Douglas’ doctrine of eq uatter
sovereignty, yet that he wiil support him ii nomi
nated by the Charleston Convention, f.r the
Presidency, in preference to a black republican, ke
may be considered as an out and out Douglas
adnerent. The northern States (as the Convention
will be organized of those admitting into the
Convention whole Uer3 of States, like the New
England States, which cannot give asiDgle vote for
the democratic party) will have the absolute control
of the Convention. What they want is, not sup
port from the South in the Convention in nomina
ting tho candidate. That they can do without, a
single vote from the South; but they want, simply,
acquiescence—submission—co operation from the
Somii, after they have exercised their power of
nomination. Now, it may not do in Douglus ad
herents tn the S uth to support directly Douglas
with his abolition heresy of iquatter sovereignty.
The direct support of Douglas may weaken them
in the South, aud is not at ail imp riant to his
nomination. But let them give an indirect, condi
tional support—let them declare, beforehand, their
acquiescence, in case Douglas is the nominee of
the Charleston Convention, and this b all that is
necessary fox his suco;s3.
The pretext that they will support him in pre
fere nee to a black republican, is, of course, nothing
but a pretext. He is just as sad as a black repub
lican. He co operated with, and obtained for the
republicans their triumph over the Bouth in the
rejection of Kansas from the Union. Eli Thayer,
and whole ho.its of black republ.caES, look upon
his policy as the very best to secure the exclusion
of slavery from our territories, aud their settlement
and appropriation by the freeS'ates. But if this
was not so, the alternative they are pleased to
make between I) uglas and a black repuoliean, is a
mere fiction to suit their policy. There is no such
alternative in the nature of things If really intent
on maintaining and preserving the rightß of the
South, they would naturally support a man for the
Presidency who truly and faithfully reflects this
policy. When, therefore, they refuse to set up and
support such a man, and support Douglas, the shal
low game is apparent. They are playing a part —
the best game they can iu the South, to suit the
end they have in view—the elevation of Douglas
to the Presidency. To make Mr. Douglas
President of the United Slates, is of more conse
quence than the maintenance of the rights and
interests of the South. Party is stronger than
principle, and the South is a mere makeweight to
lilt them to power. They are the best Douglas
sharp-shooters, because they fight behind trees.—

Eossiter and Mignot’s Painting of the
Washington Family.— We take from the Crayon
for October the following account of the much
admired historical painting, which is now nearly
finished, in the studio of Mr. Rosßiter in New York:
“Eossiter and Mignot have been engaged for some
months upon a picture representing Washington at
Mount Vernon in 1784, before bis" Presidency, and
at the time that Lafayette paid him a visit there.—
The scene portrays Washington iu a social aspect,
free from military or political surroundings, at
home with his family entertaining an old friend at
ibe dose of a clear summer day. The spectator
looks tow ards the Potomac lengthwise of the piazza
of the Mount Vernon Mansion, which is all in broad
shadow, the suu being behind the house ; the land
scape beyond bin a warm sunset glow. Washing
ton and Lafayette stand t< gether, the latter care
lessly leaning against the square column of the
piazza, dressed in red, according to the French
fashion of the day, and holding behind him a copy
of the Pennsylvania Gazette, while Washington
fronts him, evidently interested in conversation, as
is manifested by an easy attitude and an empha
sizing gesture of his bands. On the right, and a
little further back, Mrs. Washington aud a lady
vi. iter appear eea’ed at. a table, the attention of the
former being diverted by a child, Amelia Custis,
who has laid her head in her grandmother’s lap.
Upon the left, and up. u the! awn in fr nt of the
p’azza are seen a lad, G. W. P. Custis, and a negro
server.', both over a email cannon, the negro blow
ing with all her might upon a fuse, while two dogs
are capering about, half su-pitious of some pro
ceeding that is g. ing to frighten them. Beyond,
and occupying all the canvas not appropriated to
aichitectuie, we see the landscape, a bright green
lawn, crossed by i>>ng evening shadows, its trees
and shrubbery overhanging a summer-house on
the brink of the Potomac river, whose glittering
surface sparkles through the branches, winding
away beyond the foliage aud behind the columns of
the piazza, until it is lost on the line of the warm,
glowing horizon. Again we have a simple and
difficult subject, a union of important figures and
important -oeuery. In cur estimation, both fea
tures of the pictorial art are happily combined.
The figures, although in shadow, or rather visible
in the unfocused light of daylight, are carefully
worked up in detail so aa to a full share of
attention, while the broad, luminous landscape
presents no one object that interferes with them,
and yet possesses all the interest which the time and
place calls for. ‘Washington at Mount Vernon’ is
JIOW being cugrav..4 From th«. »m>ll oompWi.l
study in England. S.< far as effect is concerned,
the i-ngravmg will be superior to any pioture.some
of the beauties that appertain to composition being
more forcibly expressed in the chiaroscuro.
Cheap Living in Paris.—A correspondent of
the New York ITerald writes from Paris as fol
lows :
Here is the result of one day’s expenses: Room
20 sous ; breakfast, 5; unch,7 ; dinner 16—making
a total of 47' sous, or little less iu federal currency
than that number of cents. But many persons live
here at a much less rate than that. 1 do not, ot
course, refer to the laboring peopde—men and
women who live on half of it—but to dorks, stu
dents, artists, men about town, and the like. It is
not considered disgraceful here to be economical,
and I have often seen veiy gentlemanly men com
it g out of a baker’s shop iu the morning with a
small roll iu their hands which cost one sou, aud
which they eat aa they passed along the streets. A
very distinguished professor in the college of Sar
bonne was pointed out ,to me a few days since,
engaged in this economical combination of locomo
tion and mastication.
Bankruptcy of the City of Wheeling —The
city of Wheeling seeks a compromise with her cre
ditors. The pamphlet before us, setting forth the
condition of the city, when contrasted with the
glowing statements which influenced the original
negotiation of her debt, presents an amusing ex
hibition of financial tactics. It is now proposed to
i-sne new bonds for lit y per cent, of the old debt
—to levy a tax for the payment of iuterest and
sinking fund—to hypothecate ail the property of
the city not subject to prior liens together with the
railroad stock issued to the city in exchange for her
bonds, and to create a trusteeship for the applica
tion of such to the benefit of those ereuiloro who
shall accept the arrangement. The city also en
gages to not, in any event, present more advantage
ous terms to those creditors who shall stand aloof.
The present arrangement not to be consummated
until three fourths of the creditors shall acquiese.
The following is the debt of the city as it now
stands :

There are 5 co’leges and it) high schools in Ala
bama, besides a University, and yet no State in the
Union sends more of her children out of her limits
to be educated. Why is this ?— Exchange.
For the simple reason that, where there are so
many, they are not apt to be goods ones. It is
impossible for a State to have a first class universi
ty where the energies, sympathy, and capita! of
her citizens are divided among a dozen institutions.
Education may be more generally diffused uuder
the latter system, but the standard is materially
lowered — Savh. Rep.
“Gander Pulling.’’—We reollect to have
heard when a boy. of this barbarous sport, but
thought it had disappeared before the advancement
of Christianity and civilization. We perceive, how
ever, that an exhibition of the sort took place, some
ten days ago, in the good old county of Elbert. The
Star says few of the citizens of the neighborhood
where it occurred countenanced it by their pres
ence.—Savannah Republican.
Fatal Affray.—The Spirit of the South says an
affray occurred in Georgetown, Quitman county,
Saturday night last, in which a man by the name of
Pope was stabbed through the heart by another,
named Alexander. The instrument used was a
sword cane.
“ Some Pumpkins,’’ —We have it from undoubt
ed authority, and the certificate is now in our hands
that Mr. Samuel D. Nelson, raised, this year on Mr.
Meshack Boaz’s plantation on Swamp Creek, in
Whitfield county, 2j miles above the town of
Tilton, a Pumpkin 9 feet in circumference, that
weighed 239 pounds ; another 192 pounds, besides
several weighing from 110 to 169 pounds. These
pumpkins are of the Golden variety; the seeds from
which these pumpkins were raised, were obtained
from the Cleveland (Tenn.) Fair. Our Savannah,
Augusta and Charleston contemporaries have
bragged much the past season about melons,
squashes, &c., and now a task is laid for them in the
way of pumpkins. Let them roach it if they can.—
Calhoun (Cordon co.) Platform.
Kail Road to Jacksonville.—We are heartily
glad that the “solid men,” ot our community have
become fully impressed with the importance of
taking immediate steps for securing a connection
with the Selma & Tenn. River Railroad. There,
probably, never has been a time so propitious for
taking up this enterprise in good earnest as the
present. So far as we know, there is but one sen
timent upon this subject in this vioinity, and that is,
in favor of efficient, determined aud immediate
action. We are obliged to go to press before the
sroceedingsof (he meeting last night had transpired,
out we doubt not that initiatory measures for im
mediate action will be adopted. —Rome Courier.

Still Later from Harper’s Ferry—Jurisdiction
of i’jinoners Settled—List of Killed
and Wounded Rebels.
Harper's Ferry, Oof. 19.—'The prisoners taken
in the late conflict with fho insurgents at this place,
have been committed to the jail of Cbarlestowa>
Jefferson County, Y’a., to await the action of the
Grand Jury. They will be indicted and tried in a
few days. Die arrangement about jurisdiction ha?
been settled in this way: the local authorities toTry
the prisoners for murder; meanwhile the United
States authorities will proceed to try them on the
charge of treason. Governor Wise said to United
States District Attorney, Ouid, teat he had no ob
jection to the General Government proceeding
against the prisoners, if anything be left of them
by the time the Virginia authorities get through
with them.
Brown is better. He has made a fuller state
ment, iu which he says that he rented the farm, on
which his rendezvous was located, from Dr. Ken
nady, six months since, and that he has paid the
rent for it until next March. He says that he never
had over 22 men at the farm at any one time, who
belonged to his organization ; but that he had good
reason to expect reinforcements from Maryland,
Kentucky, North and South Carolina, and the
Canadas. He states further, that he had arms and
ammunition sufficient for 1 500 men ; that he had
20Urevolvers, 200 Sharpe’s rifles, and 1,000 spears,
which were left there at the farm, where he had,
also, an abundance of powder and fixed ammuni
tion. He brought all his arms, from time to time,
from Connecticut aud other points in the Eastern
States, to Chambersburg, Pa. They were directed
to J. Smith & Sons, Keunady Farm, (his assumed
name,) and were packed in double boxes, so as to
deceive the parties who handled them in transport
ing them to the farm. He says he made one mis
take in either not detaining the train on Sunday
night, or in permitting it to go on unmolested.—
This mistake, be seems to infer, exposed his doings
too soon, aad prevented his reinforcements from
reaching him.
The names of all hie party at the Ferry on Sunday
night, except three white men, whom Brown admits
were sent away on an errand, are as follows, with
their proper titles under the provisional government
affixed: Gen. John Brown, Commander-in Chief,
wounded, but will recover; Capt. Oliver Brown,
dead; Capt. Watson Brown, dead; Capt. Aaron
C. Stephens, of Connecticut, wounded badly, has
three balls in his body, and cannot possibly survive ;
Lieut. Edwin Coppice, of lowa, unhurt; Lieut.
Albert Hazlett, ot Pennsylvania, dead; Lieut.
Win. Leeman, of Maine, dead; Capt. John E.
Cook, of Connecticut, escaped ; Capt. John Kagi,
of Ohio, (raised in Virginia) dead; Lieut. Jeremiah
Anderson, of Indiana, dead; Privates Stewart
Taylor, of Canada, dead; Charles P. Todd, of
Maine,dead; Win. Thompson,of New York .dead;
and Dolph Thompson, of New York, dead. These,
with the three previously sent off, make seventeen
whites.
The negroes were: Dangerfield Newly, of Ohio,
(raisedin Virginia) dead; Emperoi, of New York,
(raised in South Carolinaj|oot wounded—a prisoner.
The latter was elected a member of Congress of
the Provisional Government some time since; Lewis
Leary, of Ohio, (rabed iu Virginia) dead; Cope
land, of Ohio, (raised in Virginia) not wounded—a
prisoner at Coarlestowu.
General Brown received nine wounds, but none,
it is thought, would prove fatal. There was about a
bushel of letters discovered, from all parts of the
country.
One from Gerrit Smith, that informs Brown of
some money being deposited at a Bank in New
York, to the credit of J. Smith Sc Sons.
The letter appears to be one of the many, that
informed him from time to time, as the money was
received.
