THK II.VRY TIMES. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22. R. J. Warier and the Admihistrati©.I*.— 1 *. I tie Louisville Journal says that when K n Walker was in the United States Senate, lie was the leader of the Democracy ol that body, from the Senate Mr. Walker went into Mr l oiks Cabinet as Secretary ol the 1 aeasury, and, in that capacity, made himsell the idol ot the Democracy everywhere When the Buchanan Adminwtra tion appointed him Governor of Kansas.the whole Democratic party hailed his selection aa the best that could possibly have been made from the on tire Union, and he was greeted with ten thousand enthusiastic expressions of Democratic gratitude for the devotion manifested by him to the inter estsof the Democratic party in condescending jo accept an office that might not be deemed fuliy worthy of his transcendaut ability. And now the Washington “Union,” the mouth- j piece of the Administration, denounces Robert J. Walker as “a traitor and swindler. We.l, asks the “Journal” if tra'tors and swindlers are thus honored and trusted and lauded and idolized by the Democracy of the Union, what is Demoratic honor or trust or idolatiy wortli . The editor of the Louisville Journal has the reputation of a very shrewd and sagacious indi vidual—a reputation which was never won and can not be sustained by the perpetration of such paragraphs as the foregoing. He employs the fact of antagonism between the past and present conduct of the Democracy towards Mr. Walker a= a mat ter of reproach to that party, and assumes thereby that the inconsistency is due to it. This position involves a petitio principii, so manifestly that any school boy may detect it. When Ilobt. J. Walker was a member ol the United States Sen ate, and subsequently, of Mr. Polk’s Cabinet, he was considered a true friend to the Constitution andthe South. His eminent services in behalf of the annexation of Texas, especially endeared him to the Southern Democracy. The statement made by the Journal, then, is true, that his appointment as Governor of Kansas w>as hailed with satisfaction by Ins whole parly. But what has this todo with his political “treason” or the question of the pro* prietyofthe sentence pronounced against him. Does the Journal intend to say, that having once approved, weean never condemn. Such,indeed, would not'be a far-fetched inference from the ar ticle we have quoted. Under the administration of that rule, by what penance can history ever atone for the injustice she has done to Arnold and his compeers in every age, whose names have been inscribed upon the roll of'infamy 1 We will not insult the intelligence of our readers with an at tempt to prove Walkei’s desertion of the South duiing his administration in Kansas. That i9 one point on which all parties hoie are united. The motive of his defection, also, is too plain to re quire comment. Our cotemporary is doubtless impelled toliis oblique commendation of this quondam Kansas functionary by the considera tion that his partv has gained w hat the Democracy has discarded. It is quite natural thus to magnify the importance of our own acquisitions; but it is | not, under all circumstance, praise-worthy. The viruous sentiment of the world has applauded the j people of Great Britain for the contempt and ah horrenee with which they regarded Arnold—ihe traitor. Judicial Convention,—Chattahoochee. We have received the Cuthbert Reporter con taining au account of the Democratic Judicial Convention, which assembled at Culhbert. We have given our readers the proceedings of the Con vention, and it is unnecessary to re-print them.— Col. David B. Harrell of Webster, was the per manent Chairman, and Messrs. T. L. Guerry and L. B. Standifer, Secretaries. in addition to what we have given in a previ ous issue, we find ihe following resolution adop- \ ted, to wit: Resolved, That the members of the Legislature from the counties composing the Patanla Circuit he requested to oppose the annexation of Chatta hoochee county to the Chattahoochee Circuit. We promise our friend, Col. Raiford ot Chatta chee, the mover of this resolution, that we will no force Chattrdtoochee county (old Muscogee) into this Circuit against the will of the citizens. We have great respect for our old friends and would j be pleased to form an alliance with thorn were it not eo unpleasant. Truth compels us fo say, how- | ever, as one of the Representatives of this Circuitt in the Legislature, that we have never heard of the proposition. Interesting to Newspaper Proprietors J One of the courts of the State of Indiana recently made a decision which is of interest to all news paper proprietors throughout the Union. Aeon- i troversy existed relative to a charge tor advertis ing between the Commissioners of Hamilton ceun ty and the Patriot newspaper. It wa9 held by ihe Judge that “the published terms of newspapers constitute a contract. If work is given to news paper publishers, without a special contract con travening the published terms, the publisher can charge and receive according to the terms so pub lished. It is not necessary to prove what the work cost or was worth ; the publishers have a right to fix the estimate value ot their columns, and if so fixed, no other question need be asked* ‘ but the price thus charged can be recovered ” Cable Signals Ceased! As will be seen from our telegraphic dispatch es, the signals through the great Atlantic Cable have ceased The ominous silence of the opera tors as to the cause of the interception of mes sages have prepared the public mind tor this rev elation. The men of science may now exhaust j the rosources of'their prolific minds to solve the mystery, if it is not soon ascertained that the fail- I ure arises from a parting of the cable. The exper iment, however, is tried sufficiently to test the practicability ot so great an enterprise and thecel ebrar'on in New York and the bonfires and illu- i jminatlons in honor of the achievement will only serve as a stimulus to nobler exertions in the fu- | ;ure. The end will yet be attained and another j ;able will yet be laid, which will unite together hese two mighty nations of the earth. The Yellow Fever. For the twenty four hours ending Friday noon, J Sept. 17) there were sixty throe deaths teported i >y the Board of Health of New’ Orleans. In Mo- j tile, there were four deaths on Saturday (the 13th | nst. The disease has abated in Savannah and the Quarantine laws are no longer enforced.

We see from our exchanges, that the Principal of the above institution, Mr. O. P. Fannin, has j been removed by the Board ol Commissioners. A meeting was held by a portion of the citizens cJ , Cave-bpring, Floyd County,—where the Institu tion is situated—expressive of the nigh apprecia tion in which Mr. Fannin is held and regretting the summary manner of his removal and the secta- . rian spirit which prompted it. We know nothing 1 of the merits of the controversy, hut learn from j the resolutions passed at the meeting, that the ! Legislature will be memorialized to retain Mr Fan- j n in. Bishop Geo. F. Pierce.— This gifted son of j Georgia preached last night at St. Johns’ Metho dist Church, to a large congregation.

Washington Items Commander Charles Steedman litis boon j appointed Light-house Inspector of Phila delphia district, vice Commander Yard, de tached. Lieutenat Mercomb has been transferred from the Navy-Yard, New York, to the re ceiving ship North Carolina. Lieut. James M. Duncan has been order ed to the New York Navy-Yard. The revenue is so much improving that the Treasury Department does not antici pate the necessity of asking any. more ! loans. The President is personally paying at | tention to the military expeditton to be sent ■ under Gen. Harney against the Indians in Washington and Oregon Territories, and to the expedition preparing against Para guay. Several of the Secretaries were sent for to the White House, Saturday. Gen. Harney will sail for the Pacific on the 20fh inst, He will have a force of about three thousand men when all the contingents arrive. He expects to make short work of this new Indian war. Mr. Westervelt, of New York, was at the Navy Department to-day, and says he will have the Brooklyn sloop of-war finished and ready for her trial trip within two months. The overland mail routes to the Pacific side of the Continent, which Postmaster General Brown has been so indefatigable in maturing, are ail arranged, and will com mence service next month. Dr. Thomas Rainey, of New York, has been appointed by the President special Agent to accompany the re-captured Afri cans and deliver them to the authorities of Liberia. lie is well known in connection i with the enterprise for establishing a line of steamers between the United States and Brazil, which he will continue fo press at the next session of Congress.

Slate Prison Inspector Everest. Louisiana Intelligence. The Mount Lebanon Baptist ol the 9th inst., has the following : It is still very dry, and has been warm for a week past, but windy, and conse quently not so oppressive, itjhas been fav orable to health. The cotton crop, it is now clear, will be short in North Louisiana. The bottom may yield well, but the drought has cut oif the Dill crops. Everybody now concedes that i the average crop form North to Middle ( Louisiana will be a short one, and if so, it ; must be thiough the entire State, and also from Arkansas and Texas, as the drought has prevailed throughout ihe Southwest. This country is wonderfully infested with ; caterprillars at this time. The hickory and j gum trees are almost covered with their; white webs. Many trees have not a leaf’ left. We never saw the like before. They j scarcely touch any tree but a hickory or j sweet gum. The Caddo Gazette of the 11th says: The weather has been warm and sultry during the week. We have been visited with occasional showers which laid the dust and cooled the atmosphere. Nothing can save the cotton crop on the hills; only a half crop will be made and fully half of that is now open. Indians Adopting Civilization. —The Minnesota Statesman is informed by Dr. Daniels, of the Sioux agency, that about 75 of the Sioux Indians have signified their intention of adopting thedress of their pale faced brethren and pursuing an agricultural life on their farms or lands near the agency where many ot them have now from five to ten acres under cultivation. But the greatest step towards civilization is in their requesting Superintendent Cullen to bring a pair of shears to their settlement in order to cut off their hair 1 This all uncivilized or half civilized Indians look upon with perfect abho:rence v Unclipped hair, with the Indian, is jusi as indispensable as the blanket, and a violation of this usage is a forfeiture of Indian character. The^Weather—Health of the City. The storm of Wednesday and Wednes day night'closed the bad spell of rainy wea ther which had prevailed for several days previous, tu.d the wind having dispersed the clouds, came out from the north-west on Thursday morning. The sky was bright, and Ihe atmosphere cool and bracing Yesterday was a clear, delightful day, with a brisk \. N. W. wind. This state of things could not but be favorable, and we were gratified to learn yesterday that there was a most decided improvement in the health ot the city. We made diligent en quiry, but heard of very few new cases of j sickness of any kind—none of yellow fever. j The physicians with whom we have con- j versed assure us that the sickness is not I only diminishing, but continues of a very I mild character, and that, if the present fa- j vorable weather should continue for a few I days longer, we will have good grounds to . hope that the wonted general good health of the city will soon be re-established. We have never had a healthier season than the present up to about the commence- j ment of the second week in this month, i but the weather for some eight or ten days I previous to Wednesday last—during the ■ brewing of the equinoctial storm which we i have just experienced—was very unfavor able to health, and during that time we have had some fever and some few deaths by yellow fever. But the favorable change in the weather, with the very decided di minution of the sickness, induces us to hope that the worst is over, and without some unfavorable change, hardly to be expected at this season of the year, we shall soon have the pleasure of announcing to our friends abroad that the fever has disappear ed from Savannah. Of one thing they may rest assured, the Board of Health and the press will keep the public correctly inform ed in regard to the health of the city. It is p.-oper that we should say that no extraordinary alarm is felt by our citizens. On the contrary, the opinion is very gener al that, though we have had a few cases j of yellow fever, we have not nor ate we likely to have it as an epidemic. Health oe Augusta. —There were only seven interments in Augusta during the week ending on the 16th inst. But one adult, who died in Aiken. 8. t\ From the Chicago Times, Sept. 13.

Leavenworth, Sept. 15. —The Pike’s Peak gold excitement has increased to a perfect mania, and large numbers are con | stantly setting out for the new El Do rado. A stage line is being organized thence i from Fort Riley. The Epidemic. —This fearful malady con tinues on the increase, and we can for the present entertain no well founded hope of • any immediate abatement. Contrary to nil precedents since 1847, and including that i year, its progress up to this late date has been continuous, sometimes fluctuating from day to day, but the weekly reports showing a gradual increase. The returns for the week ending last Sunday morning at six o’clock summed up four hundred and seventy two, an increase of twenty three over the preceding week. The yellow fever interments for the cor-?* responding week in 1853, were29o; in 1847 they were 243; in 1854 they were 284; in 1855 they were 255.

During the week the weather has been general i ly tavorable for harvesting, and consequently the markets, both here and throughout the Kingdom, have been very quiet, and former quotations barely maintained To day’s market was welT attended, and prices, particularly for fine parcels of Wheat and Flour, were well supported, and closed firmly at last week’s quotations. Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar.— f I he gallant Rep resentative from the first district addressed an immense concourse of the citizens of Tippah at the Court House on Monday last. His speech replete with wisdom and sound logic, gave great satisfaction to his audi ence as was manifested from the repeated rounds ofapplause which often interrupted his most eloquent passages. We have reason to be proud of our Rep resentative—Tippah is satisfied with him and his services. He has no superior in Congress from Mississippi. —Ripley Adver tiser.
