I WM. S. JONES, Proprietor Chronicle k Sentinel. JAMES GARDNER, Proprietor Constitutionalist. | Iran our Evening Edition of yesterday. rtlfnear No. i*, on the Savannah, Albany k Gulf Railroad on Wednesday morning last, 6y which v* regret to learn that Mr. \\ m. Godfrey, a virthy young man of this city and engineer of ti down passenger train, lost his life. It appears tiit a loaded lumber train had been left on the taick by the hand%cmployed at the saw mill, and tie morning being very foggy the obstruction was not observed by those on the engine until it Tas too late to avoid a collision. After calling and vn the brakes and reversing the action of the ei _rine, Mr. Godfrey and the fireman jumped to sr.re themselves. The latter escaped unhurt, w ile Mr. Godfrey struck in such a manner as to bi ’ak his spine and cause other injuries, from which he died the same evening. He was convey ed to the residence of Mr. P. C. Pendleton, where lie received every attention until death relieved him from his sufferings. The body was brought to the city yesterday morning, and was buried v itb military honors*by the Oglethorpe Light In f< dry, of which corps he was a member. His funeral was also attended by the employees of the Savannah, Albany and Gulf and Central Rail roads, by whom as well as by all who knew him, he was bighlv respected. —Savannah Xewt, Id, ii.d. Depreciation’ of Slave Value.— A correspon. dent of the Charleston Courier, from Washington, says: There is a considerable degree of alarm and commotion among slaveholders in Virginia, found ed upon a sensible depreciation of the market value of slaves. A Virginia member of Congress, who was here a day or two ago, says that the de preciation amounts already to a hundred dollars a bead, on an average. The cause of this deprecia tion, and also of the stringency of money matters o Virgiuia, is variously explained. It is referred • m l only to the probable success of the Black Re publican party, but the fear that the cotton States will, next wiuter, enact laws prohibiting the emi gration of slaves from Virginia into those States, and thus force Virginia to remain a slaveholding State. It has been suggested that, in case of the election of Lincoln and the establishment of Re publican ascendancy in the Federal Government, Virginia and other border slaveholding States would be gradually abolitionized, and get rid of their slave* by transferring them to the South. Controverting legislation, on the part of the Cot ton States, is seriously apprehended. There is not so much sensation on the subject in Maryland as in Virginia. Hon*. Herschel V. Johnson* in Richmond.— Hon. Herschel V. Johnson addressed a large meeting of all parties at Richmond on Saturday night, at the Club House. He * denounced the Breckinridge men in the severest terms, as disor ganizers, bolters and disunionists, and said that if Lincoln was elected, he might thank them for his election. He said that South Caroliua, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi would then secede, and there would be a dissolution of the Union. He thanked God that he was for the Union and on the right side. He declared himself for the rights of the States, and for the Constitution and the Union. He spoke for two hours and a half, gave great satisfaction to his hearers, and was loudly applauded. Stephens in Savannah.— The Savannah Repub lican gives a brief synopsis of Mr. Stephens’ speech at Savannah, which that paper says, was listened to bv a densely packed audience—the largest assembly ever sees in Savannah. Mr. Stephens, although extremely feeble, spoke for two hours and three quarters—gathering strength from excitement. It was an argument in favor ot the Douglas doctrine of popular sovereignty. Mr. Stephens announced in the conclusion of his speech, that be did not regard the election of Lincoln as a just cause of disunion, and should oppose such a movement with all the power at his command, let it come from whom it might. He should wait for an act of aggression, and would then summon his countrymen and exert them to resistance. ‘•Mi rder will Git.”—We learn that the citi zens of Hernando County, Florida, on Saturday la*t, hung Hamp. a slave belonging to the estate of Albert Clarke, for being the immediate cause of the death of his master. The negro confess ed that he was promised two hundred dollars by James Boyd ( a step-son of the deceased i and Mrs. Clarke decedent’s wife) —$100 respectively,—as a compensation for taking the life of his master, and that he committed the murder ias stated last week accordingly. The Tampa Peninsular savs Boyd and Mrs. Clarke are now in charge of the people, closely guarded ; and, it is to be hoped, evidence will be found sufficient to convict them by law as accessories; the conviction of their guilt, with the people is already a fixed fact. IM~ Watts—Conversions. -The Hon. Thos. H. Watts seems to be doing his party immense good wher ever he goes. He has driven four families in Au tauga county from the support of disunion, and has made over a hundred good union men in the county of Butler. The Breckinridge orators seem to be a little afraid of him. Ask his friends what happened at Greenville tne other day, when Col. Sanford attempted to tear unionism into splinters? Don’t forget to do this. —Montgomery Confedera tion. The Executive Committees of the four political parties are closing up their business at W ashing ton City having ceased to issue auy more printed material. It is estimated that tbe aggregate num ber of documents circulated by them since the Presidential canvass is between six and seven millioßs. Nearly all of them were folded at the Capital. ’ la? hall Pox in Brooks Cocntt. —We are inform ed that the patients are all rapidly recovering, and that the nurses have been discharged. [ Thomaeville Rnterpriee, 31 sf. The First Railroad in Tirket.—A railway about thirty miles in length will shortly be opened from Smyrna to Turball, which is nearly due east ‘ of the former place. This work, the first of its kind in Turkey, was undertaken some years since by a number of Englishmen, but has experienced more than the usual share of delay arising from obstacles on the part of both the government and the people. It was expected to be completed early in the present month, and the Sultan and bis ministers were to attend the opening. Ccre fob Bchss. —The “Gazette Medicale” of France says that, by an accident, charcoal has been discovered to be a cure for burns. By laying a piece of cold charcoal upon a born, the pain sub sides immediately. By leaving the charcoal on one hour, the wound is healed, as has been demon strated on several occasions. The remedy is cheap and simple, and certainly deserves a trial. Young America. — The following delicate speci men of juvenile bravado is too good to be lost: One night Freddy had been put to bed, and mother and Johnny were in an adjoining room. Presently Johnny cut up some caper, on which l|is mother threatened to “ take him into the other room and whip him.” “ Mother,” said Freddy’s voice under the bed clothes, “ I know where I’d take him.” “ Where t” said the mother, whose curiosity iraa exciited. “ I’d take him under the left ear! ;Cl)rouidc <Bs BY TELEGRAPH.

Yesterday the market opened With a good deal of animation, and about 1200 bales changed hands at full prices. This morning the upward tendenev in prices were checked, owing to advance in freight.

We are not disposed to boast of our “facilities” to get goods so cheap as to make it impossible to be “under sold fyet we feelvery sure that if others sell cheaper, it will hardly be “possible” that they will receive “ fiur remunerative prices.” As “ hope springs eternal In the human breast,” and as we are also stimulated by the lines learned in our school days. Tall oaks from little acorns grow,” 4c., 4c., we shall indulge the hope that at some future day we may approximate so near “ a leading position” in the trade of our city as to make it a questions* entirely “ beyond controversy” whether it shall be retained aad monopolised by those who so confident ly appropriate its exclusive occupancy to themselves. We trust our friends will pardon us for entertaining such ambitious bopw, PCUWtf BELTING! LEATHERg BELTING, V” BEST QUALITY, ALL WIDTHS, 1 to 18 Indies, With Underwood’s Patent RIVET FASTENINGS.
