ITEMS. An exibition of the domestic fowl of New En gland opened in Boston on the 15th u!t. Some t*»o thousand chickens, ducks, geese, &c.,were asembled for inspection. John Abcrnethy, the eminent surgeon, used to tell his scholars, that all human maladies arose from two causes—stuffing and fretting. In Lower Canada there are five Annexation prints—among them the Montreal Herald, once the most ultra-royal paper in the Province. “My gracious !” said an urchin in New York, on beholding an English carriage with three footmen in livery, “well ifit doesn't lake three Britishers to Make a nigger.” A California correspondent of the Boston Union, positively asserts that he had seen Cool, jdge, the murderer, at the mines. He had known him in Maine, and though lie had changed his name and sulfered his beard to grow, he was confident that he was the murder er who was thought to have killed himself. Signoriana Fortunata Tedesco, the talented and beautiful prima donna, was married two or three weeks ago to a rich and highly respectable gentleman of Guatemala, named Senor J. Tho mas di Maux. Holland, taking alarm at the great increase in the supply of gold, has stopped its gold mining, and abolished bylaw the use of gold coin. The Steamer Princeton has been demolished at Charlestown Navy Yard hv orders from Wash ington. A small portion of her hull alone re. mains. She was condemned on account of the decaying of the timber. According to researches made by Sir llichard Clack, the total amount of gipsies now in Europe amounts to 600,000. Russia contains the greatest number 00,000, and Turkey the next in this respect; it contains about 60,000. The United States Revenue Cutter Lawrence, Captain Fraser, left Valparaiso, outlie 19tli of July for the Sandwich Islands. Some fears were entertained at Washington for her safety before this announcement was made. The Legislature of Illinois has requested the Governor to have prepared from some quarry in that State, a block of stone for the Washington Monument. A hog has been raised on League Island, a few miles from Philadelphia, which is upwards of 1000 pounds weight. The animal is only nine teen months old, and for eight months has not been able to see, his eyes being completely cov ered with fat. The object of Sir John Franklin’s expedition, was to find a northwest passage through Lancas ter Sound and Behring’s Straits. A snake hunt, of rather a novel description, took place lately in Clermontcounty, Ohio. One thousand persons participated in it, and it oc cupied three days, the whole of which was a scene of revelling and festivity ; and what is more singular, some of the hunters found snakes in their hats. Among the articles exhibited at the late fair in New York, were chairs made of paper, prepared by a process that renders it harder than wood, with a surface like polished glass, and richly inlaid with ivory. Mr. Henry Rhodes captured a largo gray eagle I lust week, near Pottsville, Montgomery county, i Pa. by shooting and breaking one of its wings. I It was killed in efforts to capture it. It measur- I ed seven feet two inches from tip to tip. Tlie Dumfries Standard states that a small gray plant found in mossy situations, and po pularly known ns the “flower of the moss,” lias proved efficacious in curin g hydrophobia. An example is related. Fifteen cows were bitten and became furious; fourteen drank a decoction of the flower and survived ; the fifteenth receiv ed none and died. Mr. Ri vcs, the Liverpool Mail says, has not yet been received by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, nor officially presented to the President of France. The city of Utica, in New-York State, does not owe a cent of public debt, and has money in bank, and taxes collectable; has an abundant supply of water from the mountain springs, and is lighted by pure and excellent gas. A Mrs. Mahan is before the Police Court of New York for killing her servant girl with a hammer. A Boston paper says that they are begining to pave the streets of Havana with Massachusetts granite, so that United States flags will soon be trampled on in the city of cigars. Irish emigration to the United States bids fair 10 he on a more extended scale, this season, than it has ever been. A colored man, named Charles Robertson, died recently in Carroll county, Md., at the re- Warkale age of one hundred and three years and seven months. Among the deaths announced in the London papers, are those of the Earl of Albemarle, aged Lord Talbot do Malahide, aged 83; and l^'' oo pi n , the eminent pianist and composer in ■ Baris. ■ Ihe work of rc-constructing the Seaboard and ■ Roanoke Railroad was formally commenced at ■ Portsmouth, Vu., on the 13th ult.

Ross, Mayor pro tern, was called to the Chair and David Reid, Esq., appointed Secretary.— The Chairman stated the object of the meeting, and declared it organized and ready to proceed with the business that called the Citizens togeth er—whereupon J. 11. R. Washington, Esq. arose and made a few remarks to the meeting, and was followed by Washington Poe, Esq., who after a brief ad dress, offered the following Resolution, which was read, viz : Resolved , That the Citizens of Macon consider it inexpedient to take any steps in reference to the removal of the Seat of Government; but should the Legislature in its wisdom, consider it proper to change the location of the Seat of Government, and shall select the City of Macon, we have full confidence in the Mayor and Coun cil of the City of Macon, to make all necessary arrangements to carry that object into cttect. J; 11. R. Washington, Esq., moved a substitute in lieu of the Resolution offered by Mr. Poe, and after a few remarks from R. S. Lanier, Esq. opposed to the substitute, it was withdrawn— and A. P. Poivers, Esq., also made a few re marks, stating that he also was in favor of the Resolution offered by Mr. Poe, and moved its adoption —when the Resolution of Mr. Poe was read the second time and adopted unanimously. J. 11. R. Washington, Esq., then made some further remarks, and closed by offering certain Resolutions, which were read and after consid erable discussion by Messrs. Washington, Pow ers, Lanier and others, and various alterations and amendments, were read separately and a dopted, as follows : Resolved, That any attempt oil the part of the Legislature of Georgia, to authorize or farce a connection of the Rail Roads, either through or around the City of Macon, in oppo sition to the wishes or interests of the City, would be a violation of our rights ; and should receive the united resistance of every friend of Maeon. Resolved, That, if an amicable adjustment of this subject, will not satisfy antagonist interests, but justice and equity, private and vested rights and every solemn obligation, must be trampled under foot and cast aside, for public convenience, then, and only then, do we insist that there shall be no invidious distinctions against Macon. But while we entertain the kindest and best feelings towards our sister cities, and deprecate any action by the Legislature which may tend to build up rival cities in other States, still, the rule shall be impartially applied at every point —and every break or hindrance, on any ot the great steam high-ways, within the limits of the State, should ho promptly removed. Resolved, That our Senator and Representa tives in the Legislature, be, and they are here by instructed to urge these views upon the Le gislature, and engraft them upon whatever measure that honorable body may adopt, touch ing the premises. Resolved, That a Committee of Five he ap pointed by the Chair to report instanter, for the adoption of this meeting, a respectful and so lemn Protest, against the proposed action of the Legislature on the subject of Rail Road con nection at Macon—and that the same lie for warded to the Mayor, now in Milledge.ville, with the request that lie cause copies thereof to he presented before each branch of the Legisla ture, through our Senator and Representatives, with whom lie is requested to co-operate during the pendency of this question. Resolved, That our Senator and Representa tives be furnished by the Secretary with a copy of these Resolutions. The above Resolutions wore then severally read and adopted by the meeting; and, in obe dience to the fourth Resolution, the following gentlemen were appointed on said Committee, viz: Messrs. JamesH.lt. Washington, A.P. Powers, James Rea, Washington Poe and R. A. L. Atkinson. Col. A. P. Powers then made a few remarks and offered a supplement to the Resolutions, as offered by Mr. Washington, which was, on mo tion of Col. Atkinson, laid on the table. The Chairman requested the said Committee to retire and make up their Report, as desired by the meeting,—when the Committee retired a short time and returned—and through their Chairman reported the following Protest—which was read to the meeting, and unanimously adopted as the sentiments of the City ofMacon : I* It <» T IJ S T , Os the People of Macon and its vicinity, against any' interference by the Legislature, with the question of Rail Road connection at Macon, unanimously concurred in, by a Public Meet ing at Macon, on the27th of November, 1849. To the Honorable the Senate and House of Repre sentatives oj the State of Georgia, in General Assembly met : The Citizens of Macon and its vicinity, have learned with deep regret, that propositions have been made before both of your honorable bodies, to force a connection of the Rail Roads at this point, by conferring upon them Legislative au thority to pass through or around the city. Our regrets and mortification have been great ly enhanced, since we have learned also, thut those propositions have received your serious, if not your favorable consideration. Alarmed for our safety by the threatening aspect of your proceedings, we have determin ed to exercise the right guarantied to all, who may he agrieved by Legislative action,and come before your honorable bodies, with our solemn Protest and Remonstrance, against the passage of anv act which may have for its tendency the violation of our rights and feelings by the arbi trary' and gratuitous connection of tho Rail Roads at Macon, in opposition to our will. We appeal to you by the highest ami most eloquent considerations to abstain from any in terference with our local affairs—front the pas sage of any act which shall cripple our resources or obstruct our progress in the race of improve ment. We appeal to you, by the recollection of the fact, that “the Cities of Savannah and Macon’* were the original corporators under the Charter of tho Central Rail Road Company.—By the fact, that the said Company was incorporated for tho purpose of constructing a Rail Road “from the City of Savannah to the City of Macon.” —By the fact, that the City of Macon, under the provisions of said act of incorporation, subscribed and paid Tiro Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars, for the construction of a Rail Road from Savannak to Macon,— not once cent of which sum, would ever have been paid, if there had not been a general and distinct under standing that the Road was to terminate at Ma con, and not pass through or around it. And by the fact, that said Rail Road could never have been built, and in all probability would never bavc been begun without the aid of said sub scription. Again, we appeal to you, by the recollection of the fact, that the late Monroe Rail Road Company, (now the Macon and Western) was originally chartered in like manner, toconstruct a Rail Road “ from the City of Macon to the town of Forsyth.”—By the fact that we sub scribed and paid the sum of Fifty Thousand Dol lars towards tli e construction of said Road, which could not have been built without said subscription.—By the additional fact, that the City of Macon conveyed to the said Company two large and valuable lots, on which all their bouses and fixtures in Macon now stand, which they were to have and use sixlong as they should “continue to act as a Rail Road Company by transporting goods to and from the City of Ma con upon the Rail Road that shall terminate at cither of said lots,” and which under said Deed of Conveyance, must be forfeited by the Company, whenever they locate their terminus at any other point.—And, by the fact that we have thus, by our direct subscription of Three Hundred Thousand Dollars, secured the con struction of these two Rail Roads, which, with the exception of the single break at Macon, form a continuous line of Rail Road communi cation from Savannah to Atlanta, a distancoof nearly three hundred miles—and which in its operation, has brought the people of Western Georgia, and Cherokee, with all of their valua ble products, within two or three days (instead of so many weeks) of the Atlantic ports. Again, we appeal to you by the recollection of the fact, that we have paid the State Twenty- Five Thousand Dollars for an old Bridge across tlie Ocniulgee riverat Macon, (long since swept away by the flood) with the guarantee that we should “have the perpetual and exclusive privi lege of keeping up a Bridge at that place; and no Bridge or Ferry across said river should be erected, established, or allowed within three miles therefrom, within a direct line, which may or could, in anywise interfere with the said Bridge by diminishing the profits or value there of.”—And by the fact, that a connexion of the Rail Roads at Macon, would diminish the profits of said Bridge, which we have re-built at great expense, more than one half. Again weappeal to you, by tlie immense reve nue which the State has iit various times deriv ed from the sale of our City Lots—and still con tinues to derive by taxation, from our Real Estate and Merchandize, both of which are rapidly increasing in value arid swelling the resources by which you are to meet the debts of tlie State. By the recollection of the fact, that a tract of land lying between Macon and the River swamp was Reserved by a special Act of the Legisla ture, passed 23d Dec., 1826, ntid set apart “ for the preservation of the health of the inhabitants of the town.” That in consequence of the preservation of the Timber on said Reserve, which has cost the City $l3O per year, for the last twenty-three years, all previous expecta tion has been disappointed, and the health of the City has been preserved. That, town lots have been greatly enhanced in value in consequence of said Reservation, and no portion thereof, much less thirty acres, as demanded by the Rail Road Companies, could now he destroyed with out imminent danger to the health and lives of our citizens. To the Members from tlie Cherokee country, we especially appeal, by tlie recollection of the fact, that Macon with middle and lower Georgia, have chiefly furnished the means by which the rocky barriers between your beautiful country and the Sea, have been dug down, —a Railway has been constructed from the Chattahoochee to the Tennessee, and your lands—your stock— your vegetable, mineral and geological products have been quadrupled in value. To each and every member from every quar. ter of the State we appeal—we conjure you to stand fast by the cause of justice and right,— yield nothing to the prevailing disregard of pri vate and vested rights. Do nothing wrong. Be careful to maintain our good name. Fosterail the great interests of the State by all the means at your command. We have a great and glori ous commonwealth. Her prosperity, her hopes, her happiness are ours. For these, in common with all her sons, we direct our highest efforts. Already we have shaken the dust from our gar ments, and entered upon the race of improve ment, and we shall certainly win the goal if your Honorable body oppose no obstructions in our onward course. By all of these high and solemn considerations wo appeal to you to discard all Legislation upon the connexion of the Rail Roads at this place, and leave the matter to be adjusted as it trill be, in due time, by the respective corporations. And the Citizens of Macon, one and all, as in duly bound, will ever pray, «Xic. BENJ. F. ROSS, Mayor, pro tem , Chairman. David Reid, Secretary.

As heat rises with the rarified air, Count Rumford taught to place grates low, to make chimneys small, and mantle-pieces low. Frost proceeds down wards, heat upwards. Melted snow produces about one-eighth of its bulk of water; hence snow, two feet deep, produces three inches of water when thawed.
