Tgjg DAILY TIMKA THURSDAY, OBTOBBR 12. Floridk Election. The election in Florid. 1... been carried by the democrats, though the majority ie not ye. nscet tained The opposition force- are split to piecea floating about like drift wood upon the great sea of politics— catchiog at every issue-living upon temporary expedients, while the Democracy gam strength— continues firm in its principles and is last winning the approbation and affection of the poopie- This is clearly shown in the recent election in on da where, under the pressure ot circumstances, . grace charge of disloyalty to; th. : * '>“ conatitoenta was preferred ***““ but „ hich the democratic nominee tor Congr . ’ gienal | y the people refused to believe and rebuked gnaUy at the ballot-box those who made it. It are flection upon their intelligence to bring such an indictment against a faithful another point of view the victory hae a bearing upon the politics of other States. Judge flaw kins was a supporter of the Conference Bill and the re mit show. that that question was considered a dead issue in the canvass and no cause for dissen .ions and divisions in the Democratic party, which time would not heal It was'regarded as the act of the South and no issue was made with the Representatives who may have erred in their support of this measure. The Cable—Electricians. The failure of the passage of electric currents through the great cable is still a mystery, notwith standing the experiments which are being made from day to day. Every Electrician has his own peculiar views as to the cause of the difficulty—one believing that the defect exists in the line at a distance ot two hundred miles from the eastern shore; another within a few miles ; another thaf there are two de fects- So the public are none the wiser so far from, the experiments of Professor’s Whithouse, Varley, and others. Mr. Hughes, the American electrician, has not yet experimented with h ; s in struments. The English are giving their electric ians the first chance and will only take Proleseo r Hughes when the experiments of all Englishmen shall have failed. State Elections. To-day (the 12th) elections take place in Penn sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, lowa, Soutli Carolina and Minnesota, the results of which will do much to determine the character of the next Congress.— None of these States have senators in Congress to elect except Minnesota. In the present House of Representatives there are from Pensylvania fifteen democrats and ten republicans : in Ohio, nine dem ocrats and twelve republicans; in Indiana, six democrats and five republicans ; in lowa, two re publicans, in Minnesota, two democrats. Total* thirty-two democrats and twenty nine republi cans. Crystal Palace. The Trustees of the Crystal Pa'ace recently burnt in New York have offered a reward of $3,000 for the detection and conviction ot the in cendiary—quite a number of contributors were searching the ruins nud turning up the nibbish af ter the fire for their lost property, but few articles of value were found. The box containing SI,OOO worth of jewelry belonging to Tiffany &, Cos., has been found —one end partially burnt. With the exception of this box, nothing of value has been discovered. The destruction of the Ciystal Palace involves a loss variously estimated at from $500,000 to $1,500,000. The original cost of the building was about $,800,000, and some of the papers estimate the value of the machinery, goods, works of art, &c., destroyed at over $1,000,000. The structure had, however, been sold some year or more since for $125,000, and at the time of its destruction it was owned by the city of New York, and held at about $500,000 value, having au insurance in various offices amounting to SIOO,OOO. Among the property destroyed were several fine pieces of statuary, including Kiss’ eqaestrian statue of the Amazon ; Marochettis’ fine colossal statue of Washington ; casts from Thorwalsden’s group of the Apostles; a bas-relief of the “Descent from the Cross;” a mantle statue of Columbus, and sev eral other valuable works of art. Supreme Court. We extract the following from the presentments of the Grand Jury of Taylor Superior Court in elation to the Supreme Court: “In relation to the Supreme Court, we deem it not improper to state that as that tribunal ha 9 been condemned by several Grand Juries in this State, that we are decidedly in favor of that organi zation, as we believe that in all well regulated communities, there should be a fioal tribunal for the proper adjudication and settlement of questions of law, to the end that’tlie law may be known aud universality and supremacy be given to the same, and as we are not familiar with the questions which have lately been decided by that Court, which has given rise to the complaints against the Court, withhold an expression of opinion concerning the same. Wehavo full faith and confidence in the wisdom and integrity of our Legislature to believe that they will correct any evils which may exist in relation to the present organization of that body. We also express our entire confidence in the in tegrity, honesty and ability of the present mem bers of that|tribunal.’’ Practice vs. Preaching. Upon passing by one of the People’s party meetings, a few evenings since (says the Philadel phia Pennsylvanian) our attention was attracted by the decidedly French appearance of one of the speakers, and upon closer observation, we found it to be the champion of American labor, Hon.E. and. Morris. As we listened to his impassionate harangue in behaltof the great principle of pro tection to American labor, and his disinterested determination, it needs be, to offer himself up a willing sacrifice to its success, we could not re ran* from th ° that the American people were k somewhatf g ullible. or very easily ged, if they could be made to believe all that was going on there was gospel tru th. Them stood this great champion of protection to American industry protestmg, vowing and almost swearing aL,* dete ; miuatio ‘o ‘support everything American, and yet upon his own person, so lar as the eye could perceive, not a single thread of American manufacture was to be lound. French and English manufacture from his head to his feet, without a redeeming trait. Well did we exclaim, Vine la Humbug !

From Utah St. Louts, Oct- 6.—The Salt Lake mail, with dates of the 11th ult., arrived at St Josephs on the lstinst. Political matters were quiet in Utah.— The California Salt Lake train had been robbed by the Indians in Carson Valley. Dr. Forney, su perintendent of Indian affaire, was preparing to leave Salt Lake City for Carson Valley. Indian Troubles Anticipated. Sr. Louis, Oct* 7.—A gentleman who has just arrived from Fort Union says that Indian Agent Redfield was at Smutty Bear’s camp, eighty miles below Fort Randall, on the 24th ult. The Indi ans were saucy towards the whites, and serious trouble was apprehended with the Sioux and Ric arees. An Outsider.—Millard Fillmore, in hisletter to the Committee of Invitations of the Kentucky State Fair, says he has withdrawn entirely from all political strife.

The election passed oft’quietly, as there was no opposilion- Cotton Picking in tue Prairies.—We have received, says the Union Springs Gazet\c\ some interesting memoranda of cotton picking in ibe Prairies, which we spread before our readers. One is a day’s picking of 26 hands, on the plantation of Dr. N. B. Powell. The hands were not selected; the day was dry, the sun hot, ilie wind high and but little dew. The 26 hands, walkiog’four miles to and from jthe field, picked 6854 pounds, a little more than 263 lbs each. All done between daylight and dark. Another day’s picking of two hands on the plantation of T. G. Holt, Esq.,ol Columbus, Ga. in charge of A. D. Johnson, There was a smal] wager put up by way of inducement, and the hands picked, one 504 pounds, and the other 501 pounds. Pretty good picking this.

Attack of the Indians on a Pembina Train. THE FRASER RIVER PARTY. : We find the following letter from J McFet ■ ridge, Collector of Customs at Pembina, in J the St. Paul Pioneer and Democrat. “It is with regret that I have to announce i the murder ot three of our people by the ; Sioux of the plains. They were on their way from St. Paul, and were within one day’s march of Pembina, when the party (only four in number) was attacked by a party of nine Sioux. Three of our men were instantly killed and scalped ; the re maining one of the party luckily made his escape. “1 think it is high time that the govern ment should do something for our part of Minnesota. As for the Port which is now being built on Red River,near Point Gra ham, it is no more protection to our tra ders than is Fort Riley. ‘’The Sioux of tho Plains have hung around Pembina and St. Joseph all sum mer ; and as the most of our people were ei ther at St. Paul or on the Plains, laving in provisions tor the winter,the feu T ANARUS, who were left at home to make hay and take care of the cattle, were afraid to go out. “The Sioux killed and -scalped a man within twenty feet of his own door, at St. Joseph, in the month of July. “These are facts , and should be attended to, as there are a great many of our peo ple moving down the river to the Selkirk settlement, on account of the danger from the Indians, and the failure on the part ot the government to protect the settlers.” The Loss of the Austria. How a lady saved her life , but lost her jew elry and passage jnoney on board the Austria. [From the. CincinoaUi Gazette, Oct. 2.] Some persons are born under a lucky star, or are protected by an overruling Prov idence when they least expect it, and are themselves murmuring at the derangement of their plans. A lady, resident of this city, arrived home yesterday from a visit to Europe, tflicrts She baa beer! spending the past few mdriiiis. A short tune previous | to the sailing of the Austria the lady sent the amont necessary for a cabin passage to New Y rk to the agent at Hamburg, with instructions to select her a good stateroom, lie did as directed, with the exception of giving her a desirable location in the ves sel. and on her arrival in Hamburg, to sail with the steamer she found the vessel so crowded with passengers, and the room j assigned her so undesirable, that she con eluded to take passage in another steamer. With this intention she applied to the agent for the return ot her passage money, but he declined to refund. “A bargain was a bargain” with him, and the lady was either compelled to accept such quarters as had been assigned her, or to return bv another vessel and lose her passage ticket. She determined to adopt the latter course, and at once secured a stateroom in another steamer. After her arrangements had been made, and before the Austria sailed, a feeling took possession of her mind that the vessel in which she had taken passage would meet with some terrible accident, and that she herselt would in all probability be lost. So well satisfied was she that something would happen—just as people frequently “borrow trouble” without wailing for it to come along naturally—that she determined to send her jewelry by the Austria, She therefore stripped herself of everything valuable, watch and chain, pins, rings, brooches, &c„ to a considerable amount, and packing them securely in a casket, com mitted them to the care ot the captain of the Austria, taking the precaution to inform her friends of what she had done in order that they might recover the property in ease her own groundless fears in regard to her self should be realized. The result is well known. The vessel in which Hie lady took passage arrived safely at i s destination. That which she had been prompted to leave, even at con siderable loss, with its load of human be ings, met with a fate that appalled the stoutest hearts. It is needless to add that the lady is contented. She lost her pas sage money and jewelry, but saved her life. The Army and Navy. Lieut. Francis H Baker has been ordered from the Pennsylvania to the Water-Witch. The steamers Fulton and Water Witch sailed from Norfolk on the 4th instant, to join the Paraguay expedition. A very-interestmgT’vent took place on board the revenue cutter Harriet Lane pre vious to her departure for Paraguay to co-operate with the naval fleet ordered there. It was no less than the piesenta ttou to Captain Fautice of a splendid silver pitcher from Miss Harriet Lane, and gold headed canes from lion. Howell Cobb to Capt. John Paunce, Lieutenants A. D. Stanford; D C, Constabel, J Wall Wilson, Chief Engineer JR Dryburg, and assistant Engineer Walter Scott, who were attach ed to that ship in July last. The presen ta* tions were made by the Hon. Augustus Schell, collector of the port of New York. The Spanish Mission- The New York Times announces, From a reliable source we have informa tion that the Hon. William Preston, of Kentucky, has received and accepted the appointment of Minister to Spain. Of the appointment itself, the Times remarks: A more judicious selection it would have been difficult to make. A gentleman of fine accomplishments, and an able speaker and debater, the retirement of Mr. Preston from public service two years ago, after an unu* sually brief career, has been a source of sincere regret to his friends. A foreign le gation will give room for a more effective manifestation of his abilities, and will serve to bring him forward or.ce more in relations better adapted to his tastes and pursuits. While the Whig party existed, Mr. Preston was one of its most zealous sup porters. Upon the resignation of the Hon. Humphrey Marshall, in view of his ap pointment to the Chinese Commissioner ship, Mr. Preston was elected to Congress on the Whig ticket from Louisville (YTlth) District, and took his seat at the second session of the XXXIId Congress, Dec. Gth, 1852. He early distinguished himself as a warm adherant of Mr. Fillmore’s Adminis tration. At the election in 1853, he wa6 again returned, beating English, Democrat, by 1,762 majority, in a District which at the same time gave 250 majority for Presi dent Pierce. During the administration of the latter, he gradually inclined to the Dem ocratic creed; and, in 1855, allowed him self to be placed on the Democratic ticket, in his District, as the antagonist of Mr. Marshall, the American nominee. He was defeated by 2,554 majority. Since then Mr. Preston has remained a steadfast sup porter of the Administration, doing good service in the election of Mr. Buchanan. To the latter circumstance, and to his eminent fitness for the place, he doubtless owes the present appointment. Perhaps, too, the old warm personal friendship entertained ! for him by Vice President Breckinridge has had its influence. It will be remembered that, in the difficulty between the latter gentleman and Mr. F. B. Cutting,Mr. Pres ton acted as the second of his Kenncky neighbor. From the Richmond South. Forney’s Address. —A friend was so superfluous as to ask if we had read Mr. John VV. Forney’s latest manifestation.— He must have thought we had very little to do, or else were very badly off lor some thing to read. Forneyism in daily instal ments is bad enough in all conscience, but to take it all at a single dose would nauseate an ostrich. We did read the first sen tence of Forney’s manifesto of grievances, and the sentiment therein expressed miets our ‘hearty approval. He says: “The American people have little or no sympa thy with the personal griefs of public men*” Not presuming to speak for the whole body of the American demos, we will say for our selves that nothing is more perfectly odi ous and abominable to our ears than the sepulchral lamentations of a disappointed place hunter. Hence we will read none of Forney’s jeremiad. We trust however, since the agony of parturition is past, he feels better in mind and body. Hon. Henry Bedinger, late Minister to Denmark, has arrived at his home in Jef ferson county, Va., and has been cordially greeted by his numetous friends of all par ties. T’ elegraphic. REPORTED TOR THE COLUMBUS TIMES, j ARRIVAL OF THE Steamship Indian Empire. Halifax, Oct. 11.—'The Steamship Indiau Em pire, arrived here this forenoon from Galway, Ireland, which port she lelt on ihe 28th Sept., She beings three days later intelligence, (includ- . ing Sunday Sept. 26th,) than that reported by the ‘ Canada.

Stain. —According to the official de spatches from Madrid,the Government will augment the army so as to be prepared to put down political agitation, come from i from what quarter it may. It is said that the expedition against the Riff Pirates will be postponed until Spring but the Government intends to act energet ically against Mexico. The Queen had returned to Madrid. The Correspondence Autografa declares , there is no truth in the statement that an ; Anglo-Spanish Company has obtained the concession of a submarine telegraph from j Cuba to America. A telegraph states that the present state of seige which has ceased for Catalonia and Malaga, is still maintained for the high and low Pyrenees, Aragon, and Jaoa. Portugal. —The tariff commission at Lisbon was reported to have decided in fa vor of a general reduction in the important duties on manufactured goods, but its sug gestions were expected to be on limited scale, and if adopted by government, can not be put into force until next year, as they must pass the Cortes, which meets in November. A Berlin telegram says the King lias signed an order which definitely regulates the question ol government. The order will not be published until the retnrn of the Prince of Prussia from Warsaw, to which p'ace he had gone to witness the grand military evolutions before the Empe ror of Russia. RussrA.— General Mouravieff, Count Amourski, will, it is said, be Russian min ister at Pekin. It was reported in Paris that the British government also proposes sending a mili tary man as representative there. The Russians are reported to have gain ed another great victory over the Circas sians. At Moscow, the Metropolitan Archbish op, addressed a solemn allocution to the Emperor, charging him to carry the ortho- ! dox Christian faith, by all means and ap- ] plianees, into the heart of China. From Havana. correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce, under date of 29th ult. writes. For the season, we have an unpreceden ted number of vessels in this port—2l ships and barques, 17 brigs and two schoo ners—total 40 vessels belonging to the United States. In several past years we have had only about 10 or 12 vessels during September. Captain Secor, of the barque John aDd Albert, died yesterday from over excitement to business and consequent neg lect of ,himself. His remains will be em balmed and sent to his friends. The health of Havana has not been bet ter for many years, and the cool winds which have visited us with great regularity for the last ten days, seem to have used up Yellow Jack—although in the bay, with a large fleet lor the fall, a few cases occur. But where treatment is prompt aud care given, the forms are mild and the patients saved. We are to have a direct line of steam ers with New York—agents this side a strong house—stock taken—and the en terprise will be handsomely sustained. The Main Trunk Survey. —For some w*eeks past a corps of surveyors have been busily engaged in running the line of the .Main Trunk from the Whitlacoochee to Thomasville. They arrived here tha be gining of this week, and we presume will j proceed at once to lay out the line from this place to Bainbridge; and thence to the western terminus of Chattahoochee. We understand Dr. Screven, the President of the road, will be here shortly, and that it is 1 contemplated to let out the contracts up ; on the whole line at once, that the work i may go on simultaneously, and be finished i as near as may be about the same time. *‘W T ith the lights before us,’we look con fidently to the completion of the Main Trunk South in time to carry to market the crop of 1860, arid hope to celebrate this momen tous event to the Southern citizens of Geor gia, and the election of another Democratic President of the United States about the same time.— Thomasville Reporter , fyth. Florida Rail Roads. —The Secretary of the Interior has just approved to the State of Florida the lands inuring thereto under the grant of Congress of May 17,1856, to aid in the construction of the Florida, Atlan tic and Gulf Central Road. The grant embraces an area of 183,153,99 acres, and the road connects the town of Jacksonville and Aligator; being about sixty miles in length. The larger portion of the line is already graded, and the entire work will be pushed forward to an early completion. *BA convention of the Democratic party ofj Coweta county will be held on the 4th inst., to nominate a candidate for Senator, to supply the vacancy caused by the resigna tion ot Hugh Buchanan, Esq, The election will take on the 25tb iost. lIEADACH and debility. Mf. Silas Lipscomb of Birmingham says: “I have found in Boerhave’s Holland Bitters a femedy for Headache and Debility. My w.te has also U6ed it with the greatest benefit.” Mr. A. S. Nicholson, of Pittsburgh, also re marks that he has experienced much relief from its use for headache. Take a half a teaspoonful three times a day an hour before meals. Eat moderately, and then of wholesome food, and you will find this really a remedy for Sick and Nervous Headache,Weak* ’ ness of any kind, Costiveness and Piles. Being perfectly simple in composition, it may be taken without lear by the Invalid. Possessing a fine aromatic flavor, it js very grateful to the debilita ted stomach.

This we kuow is good from hav iug tried it, and witnessed in several cases its truly , beneficial effects. Dr. Wood was kind enough to send us a couple of bottles, and alter finding that it prevented our hair from falling out, we presented a bottle to a ftieud who had been bald t or at least thirty years; it Jias restored Ins hair entirely, and it is now as thick and glossy as when he was twenty live.
