Ft tit GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA,

Of Troup County.
Election on the Pint Monday in October ntxt.
latter Rom Florid*.
By (he steam-boot Wm. Gat Ion, Capt. Fat r-
born, from Florida, wo have received the Ocala
Argue, from which we learn that the Indiana nrc
preparing for a general war, having, during tho
put year, provided ihemselvts with considerable
quantities of powder and lend.
The principal’ Indian vjllagra aro located on
the Carlosahatchec river, about throe day’s jour
ney from Ocala. They number, may be, 300
warriors^ and ate under the chief Holattcr Micco,
or Billy Bowlega. The sub chiefs are Aasinwar
and 8am Jones, the latter ia now nearly a hun
dred years old, his counsel has always been taken
by the Indians,and he ia vety vindictive towards
the whites.
From a passenger on the IFm. Gut ton, we learn
that the Indians have murdered several negroes
on a plantation near Thmpa Bay, destroyed a
bridge, and other property. A detachment of 25
U. Statca troops went out from the post at Tampa
Bay, and discovered a party of about 100 warriors,
painted in war style, and being the weaker party,
it was deemed prudent to return to Tampa Bay.
The atoamer Oomutgee hat been chartered to
proceed to Jacksonville, to take the company of
mounted men, raised there by order of the Gov.
emorof Florida, to Lake Monroe.
A slip from tho Jacksonville Republican
says; "An armed party, which Vos despatched
to Charlotte Harbor by the commanding office! 1 at
Tampa, as soon as tho outrage was known, states
that they met Billy Bowlegs on tbeir return, who
disclaimed any participation in tho affair,and said
that it was done by a straggling party. Whether
this will amount to much iu U10 face of the alartm
inf facto, time will show. We have not seen the
despatches conveying this intelligence, as they
were deposited in the mail for Washington. Their
purport is hrought by passengers from Piiatka,
and though somewhat indefinite, it is in the main
true,
“Tho families of the settlers in Orange and Bt,
Lucie counties havo nearly all been sent away in
consequence of the Indian river attack, and many
families in St. John’s county hsve retired into
SL Augustine. A friend who came from there a
few days agoiuforms us that he met three carts
containing families, on their way to the city.
“The settlement of Enterprise has been com
pletely deserted; although some ten of the while
men, with several negroes, have fortified them
selves on the extremity of the wharf, command
ing tho whole open space on which the settlement
stands, and from which they say they can resist
nn attack from a large force, as the passage to the
pier-head in front of which the breastwork is
built is very narrow. In case, however, of im
minent danger, they have their boats gathered
and attached to tho wharf, to that they can take
to the lake in a moment. Theso facts wo. learn
from Virgil Dupont, who brought his family down
yesterday, but who will join his party again early
next week.”
Thx Crops.—The Ocala Argot says: "Florida
never turned out finer crops than the present
The fodder has been stripped from the corn, and
the grain on mauy plantations is hard enough to
grind. The crop is a very large one. Tbs cotton
is doing remarkably well. O f cane we hear very
little, the late Spring frost somewhat injured this
product. A large quantity of tobacco is cured.—
AU that we have heretofore said about this plant
turns out quite correct. Every pound of it should
bring fifty cents, if not more.”
Gov. Towns on a Hunt.—The Dalton Eagle
gives a very interesting account of a deer hunt
which was recently got up in Murray County
for the benefit of his Excellency, Gov. Towns.
It ii said that he mounted his charger, shouldered
hiri gun,and tooted his horn with as much spirit os
the oldest hunter in Murray. Tho Chief Engi
ncer and other officers upon the State Road
accompanied him as a body guard. It must have
been an interesting time. Doubtless the honest
hoar led sous of Murray felt highly complimented
by such extreme condescension. Many of them
who opposed hint before mny be induced to vote for
him now. Of course no one will suppose that he
was hunting for votes aa well as for deer. It is rath
er strange, however, that Ids Excellency, who was
never known to havo done such things hereto
fore, that we have heard of, should all at once
become so fond of tho spoit. We are now In the
midst of the canvass fur Governor, and he is a
candidate, and possibly that may account foi this
sudden chaugo in his habits.
In conclusion, we would commend to his Excel
lency, that chapter in tho ” Georgia Scenes"
which is devoted to the •' Fox Hunt." He may
meet with the same fate that befel a certain char
acter on that memorable hunt, and be caught by
ft " grape vine," much to his undoing. Bhoidd lie
escape that danger, however, let him beware, lest
his Rotinante should bcliavo as " Smooth-tooth'
did on that occasion.
Judoe Hill.—A correspondent of tho Mobile
■Advertiser, now travelling through upper Gcor-
writes thus:—"1 passed three days at the
pretty village of LuGrange, tho residence of
Judge Hill, tho Whig nominee for Governor,
with whom L became acquainted. He is of the
1 sort that Georgia Governors are made of, and I
' would that the same material might be found in
Alabama. Judge Hill is a gentleman of supe
rior talents, and universally beloved for ids affa
ble and unassuming deportment. Ho docs not
trouble himself much about matters appertaining
to the administration of nffairs at Washington, or
the abstractions of South Carolinn politics—ydt
in everything tending to advance tho interests
and 3cvclop the tesourres of Gf.obqia, he has
l»cen found tho ardent ndvocato of progress, al
ways in tho van. To such as he, Georgia owes
her present enviable position.
TubMuscogee Democeat and Judge Hill,
The Dalton Eagle, which we cannot too highly;
commend to our readers, says: "Tho unscrupu
lous editor of the Muscogeo Democrat, in bis issue
of the 26U? lost, alludes to Judge Hill as the ‘be
sotted caudiduto or Governor.’ Wo will give
tiro Democrat ono more word of caution before wo
carry tho war into Africa.' Is it possible the edi-
loris ignorant of tho moral character of Qov.
Towns? Wo again warn tho Democrat not to
carry lids matter any farther. For the sake of
humanity and decency, don’t compel us to pub-
Ii*!} certificates, signed by Democrats concern
ing brandy bottles, and darker deeds perpetrated
in Dalton I We regret exceedingly to deal in
sue h personal matters, but how can wo avoid it,
when Judge Hill is denounced as tho •betolled
politician.’ Themi certificates shall certainly be
’ forthcoming if the opposition continue to attack
the personal cliarurUT-of the Whig candidate,"
A Voice prom Maine.—Let 11s see how the mat
ter stands.—Tho Georgian 6f yesterday, contuina
x long article from tho Constitutionalist, which it
endorses, the object of which is to prove that the
W hlg* of Georgia aro not as soundupon thcsla very
question as tho Democrats. A few days ago, tho
same paper publislicd and cudorsed an articlo front
tho Federal Union, which affirms that "it has been
tho object of tbo Democratic patty to keep tho
question of slsvery above party." How consist
ent ate tho two endorsements! But let that go-
such is Locofocism. As to tho article of tho Con-
stilulionalisl, wo pronounca it a vile slander, and
the editor who peuned it und the editor who<opied
U, know it.
In regard to the arguments against tho Proviso,
the writer mid the copyist of tho aforesaid at ticlo,
say
"Some of the very ablest that havo been pen
ned and spoken have emanated from Northern
Democrats.”
Let us examine some of theso " ablest" argu
inents against tho Proviso, " from Northern Dem
ur nits.” Tho late Locofoco Stato Convention of
Muino adopted tho following resolution, as ono of
their " ablett" arguments on the subject
Retolved, That tho institution of human slavery
is at variance with tho theory of odr government,
abhorrent to tho common sentiment of mankind,
and fraught with danger to all who coino wilhiu
the sphere of its influence; that tho federal gov
ernment possesses adequate power to inhibit its
existence in the territories of tho Union; that the
constitutionality of this power has been settled by
judicial construction, bv contemporaneous expo
sition, and by repeated acts o! legislation; und -
that wo cnioin upon our Senators and Represen
tatives in Congress to mako every exertion, and
employ nil their influence to procure tho passuge
of n law forever excluding slavery from the terri
tories of Calit'01 nia and New Mexico.
The Convention nominnted John Hubbard for
Governor, and issued an address to the people,
from which we inako tiio following extracts:
"Hon. John Hubbard is o nntive of Rcadficld,
and graduated at Dartmouth in 1816. Boon after
graduating, ho emigrated to Virginia, wliero lie
devoted several ycais assiduously to professional
services. Few men have bad a better opportuni
ty to see and feel the evils of slavery; mid being
convinced of its unfavorable influence upon a
rising family, ho dcloi mined, after a ten years
residence iu a slave State, to leave it, and to set
tle where slavery did not exist. He had acquired
a good practice fn Virginia, and having a family
of Ills own, and aged parents dependent upon
him for support, he necessarily made a large sac
rifice in quitting the scenes of his early labors;
but that sacrifice ho determined to make for the
good of his children, and In consequence of his
repugnance fo the'peculiar institution.’ He pre
ferred that his sous and daughters should under
stand tho necessity of self-reliance and self-exer
tion and not be roared in the laps of slaves, lie
acrunlingly re-established himself in Maine,
where lie has obtained a professional reputation
of the highcstcharacter.
"His sympathies with laboring men nrc sincere
and heartfelt, and wc are happy to state that he
is decidedly in favor of exempting our great em
pire west of Texas, from the Fatal curse of human
ilavery, and of securing for millions of freemen
1 'homestead' a hero tho sweat of involuntary
servitude will not poisou the air they breathe.—
Such is the man pieseutcd to the people of Maine
for thcii suffrages, and that he will be triumphant
ly elected there can bo no doubt."
The Address then proceeds to abuse Gen. Tay
lor and his cabinet for being in favor of the South.
Then follows tho following able argument against
the fanatics of the North :
Wo owo it to ourselves to give no counte
nance to slavery propagandism and unless the
icople of California ana New Mexico ehall form
Rate Governments inhibiting slaveiy, the De
mocracy of Maiuc will consider it the imperative
duty of Congress to extend over thosu territories
the provisions of the ordiuaAcc of 1787. It is very
evident that there nrc those within the limits of
tho Uuited States, who w ill lie satisfied with noth
ing short of the actual introduction of slavery into
our free territories, or a dissolution of the Union.
If any ono is inclined to doubt this assertion, wc
would cite him to the declaration of Mr. B> Iser,
the person recently nominated us the Tnyloi can
didate for Governor iu UicSlutcof Alul uiii.-i. We
lircscnt abundance of evideucc shoeing a do-
• riuinution to establish slavery iu the ten (lories
by force; but let a single 'externt from the late
letter vf Mr. Reiser anflidb. lie say*:
"1 am against tho Wilmot proviso, and view
such legislation as unconstitutional,oppressive and
unjust. I believe that if it is never adopted by
Congress, that under tho existing law, no slave
holder can take with him his slave to Now Mex
ico or California. I go for dividing these terri*
torial acquisitions, and if this division cannot l>o
peaceably effected,I will be found with thut party
at the South, number whom it mny, who aro for
maintaining our claim to a portion of this inherit
ance at all hazards."
"Thus it will be seen, that those, who nppropri-
a led the whole of Tcxns for slaveholding purpos
es, are for introducing slavery into California anil
New Mexico, at all haxardt. Such men will find
no sympathy in such purposes with tho Democra
cy of Maine. Their demands aro altogether too
unrcasotiable, and if submitted to, it will finally
be required of us to go the length of opposing the
admission of California and New Mexico into the
Union, provided the people of those territories es
tablish tree States. Tho propagation of slavery,
into a portion at least, of this territory, is, accord,
iug to Mr. Belser and others, to bo maintained
"at all hazards." But these pretensions have fi.
nally created something like disgust in the minds
of patriotic men, in all sections of tho Union.—
Every sensible person must see how impossible it
is, to draw tho people of tho North into tho odious
work of an unlimited propagation of slavery. It
Swords havo not been presented. Why U this so?
Havo the labour* of our Executive been so un
remitting that he has not had time to attend to it?
is llio treasury too poor to pay for them? or
_ tho mind of tho Governor so much devoted to
the Stato Rail-Road that ho hus forgotten it; or is
it more congenial to his feelings to be engaged in
tho sports of "dcor hunting” in Murray County,
than to uward the honors of tho State to her gal
lant sous?
The provisions of theso resolutions havo not
been curried out, at least so far as ono of our gal
lant fellow citizens is concerned, and 1 again ask
why is this so? GEORGIA.
AV IitgSe astailR 1 Nomination.
At a convention assembled at Tillman’s Store,
in tho comity of Montgomery, 011 tho 14th of July,

work of an unlimited propagation of slavery,
is encouraging to know also that in the Sonin, tbc
spirit of Washington, Jefferson, Mudison, Mason
aud Pinckney still exist; and that there arc emi
nent Southern men, whoso feelings revolt at the
ireseut lust for the "diffusion of slavery." But a
cw weeks ago, that distinguished and honest ad-
vocato of American Democracy, Thomas H. Ben
ton, boldly declared to tho people of Missouri, Ins
opposition to slavery and its extension."
But os if R clinch tho matter, the Hon. John
Hubbard thus accepts tho nomination tendered
him:
IIallowell, July 17,1849.
Gentlemen:— Yours of the 16th, requesting',
statement of my views in relation to the extension
of slnvery into territories of the United States
now free," is before me. Tho question in all its
practical bearings as a subject of deliberative and
solemn legislation, is an extensive one. 1 can
only give, nere, a brief statement of tho priori-
pics.which would guide my action upon it.
1st. I believe Congress to have entire constitu
tional jurisdiction over the whole subject of slavery
iu the territories of the United States.
2d. 1 am opposed to slavery in all its bearings,
moral, social, and political, and especially am 1
opposed to its extension.
3d. I would adopt all constitutional and equita
ble means to prevent the extension of slavery in
to territories now free.
Hoping, gentlemen, that this brief expose will
meet your views, l am with sentiments of respect
and regard, Yours,
JOHN HUBBARD.
We must confess that this "Northern Demo
crat" lias used very able argument* on tho quea
tion, but it happens that they arc all levelled not
against the Proviso, but against the reckless as
sertions of tho Georgian aud Constitutionalist.
Ho seems to have written his letter of acceptance
with a view to contradict them
A. II. Thomas, Secretary.
Hon. T. B. Kino.—Wo learn from tho late ac
counts from California that a dinner was given to

Tennessee Election.—Tho election forGovei
nor, members of Congress, aud members of the
State Legislature, in Tennessee,came off this day.
The Whig candidate for Governor will undoubt
edly be elected by a respectable majority.
OO-Tlio Brooklyn Star slates that the cholera
has broken out on board of tho U. S. ship Cum-
berlund lying at the brooklyn navy yard, and It is
reported that 24 deaths occurred on Tuesday.
Tho ship is ordered to bo anchored in tim stream.
The Work goes bravely on.—Another Defal
cation.—Tho Washington Republic says: "Our
history of tho old-line peculators of 1834 and 1839
is interrupted by the chronicling of later cases.
Wc published yesterday a statement of tho defal
cation of Patbick Collins, tho late Surveyor of
tbo port of Cincinnati, removed by President
Taylor. It b now our painful duty to record the
defalcation of Nathaniel Drnby, into temporary
nnvy agent of the United States at Marseilles, in
France. Ho is a defaulter to the tuno of $155,508
48, and suit has been commenced against him
for the amount."
Naval.—Tho U. S. frigate Cumberland sailed
from her moorings in tho Brooklyn Navy Yard
on Tuesday morning last. She is destiued to
join tho Mediterranean fleet. She hns a comple
ment of 400 men, und U commanded by Capt.

Theschr. Nautilus is lying at Ncw-York, pre
paratory to sailing for Fire Island, at which
place she is to commence a government survey.
The steamer Jefferson will proceed to Capo Hat-
tcras on the same business.
Memorial in Favor of Huncary,—The mer
chants of Liverpool have drawn up a memorial to
the Government, asking for the recognition of
Hungary and for a commercial alliaucowith that

Hungary had not been recognized, nor could it
be, under cabling circumstances.

The Sword* for Twiggs, Hardee and Tatnall.
Messrs. Editors:—A soldier’s honor is a soldier'
life, aud nothing is more honorable in a State
than the just appreciation of the deeds of noble
daring of her sons upon the battle fields, nor
there any thing more grateful and animating
tho bosom of a*soldier than to receive the plaudits
of their country—"Well done good and fuithful
servants.”
For bis distinguished services upon the battle
fields of Mexico, Gen. Taylob received tho high
cat marks of his country’s gratitude. Other offi
cers of our gallant Army, for their distinguished
services, have received the approbation of their
country by tho vote of thanks of Congress and
tho presentation of swords and medals. Evei
State, whose sons have distinguished thcmselvi
in their country’s service, has made suitable de
monstrations of their appreciation of such ser
vices.
Georgia, always^first at her country's call, and
never last iu honoring tho brave, at the last scs-
sion of her Legislature (now near two years
since,) adopted resolutions complimentary and
commendatory of the services of her native sons
in the Mexican war, and directed the Governor
to present in her namo to Gen. D. E. Twioos and
Capt. William J. Hardee, of the Army, and to
Capt. Josiah F. Tattnall, of tho Navy, each a.
Sword, with suitabla devices, rb testimonials of
the appreciation by their Tislivo State, of their
unflinching courage und meritorious conduct
during that war.

The Protest of IIunoaey.—We insert below
the protest of the Hungarian nation against Bus-
sian Intervention. This eloquent document was
translated for tho N. V. 'Tribune, and is by that
paper, attributed to KiMUth. It appeared imme-
diutely after the announcement that Russia had
joined Austria in the crusade against the consti
tutional liberties of Hungary.
When the Hungarian nation was attacked, at
the very centre of its existence, as a people, with
the help of a just God, it put down the insuricc-
tion which a perjured dynasty, through the most
outrageous treacheries as well as through the
monarchical power and Authority, had excited
against the Constitution and Laws. It has also
driven forth beyond the frontiers the Austrian
armies which camo to destroy its freedom and in
dependence. In accordance with inuilenafaio
national rights and the holy duty of sclf.prcscr.
vation it hus deposed from tho throne tho house
of Hnpsburg Lorraine, which had become guilty
of the most fearful crimes and perjuries.
Never did a nation wage a mare unjust war.
Never was a dynasty more unjustly punished.
Never had a people better right to expect that
its Government, unanimously appointed, could
thenceforth in peace and quietness employ the
whole power of the country in healing the wound#
which the deposed tyrant had inflicted. But in
stead of this, without any declaration of war, the
Russian armies appear in tho neighboring terri-
torics of Gallicia and Cracow, called in by the
godlcsB house of Jlapsburg, and threaten lo fall
upon Hungary. All our information nnd all the
signs show that tyrannical house, ilaclf Impotent
by reason of its crimes, is striving, by means of
nn alliance with Russia, to crcctanewits despotic
throne upon the grave of the sorely tried nation
of Hungary. The Hungarian nation Is detirmin-
cd to resist this attempt. It is resolved to waste
the blood of its last man rather than ever nr know,
ledge it# murderer as its master. And while in
this earnest and immovable resolution it confi.
denily believe* and hopes that the victory will be
given to its arms, with tho feeling of irrcconcila
*» «>indignation, R raiser iu cry to God and to the
civilized nations of tho world, and protests
solemnly against the unjust intervention of the
Russian power, which, for the sake of a perjured
despot, is ready totrample all human and national
•fits beneath iU feet.
t protests in the consciousness of the undenia
ble duty of self-defence. It proteaU in the name
of that common law of Nations which is the
sacred basis for the mutual relations of States.
It protest in an agreement with all treaties,
declarations and protestation* which put tho
oxislence of nations under the common pro
tection of the sense of justice iu other nations,
against tho assaults of usurpers. It protests
jn the name of Freedom, of tho European equil
ibrium and of civilization. It protests in tho
nnme of humanity, of the innocent blood which,
shed in such a war, will cry to a just God
fir vengeance. Tho Hungarian nation is con
fident that every people which is animated by tho
love of jujtice and freedom, wilt answer this its
protestation, with warm sympathy. Nevertheless,
should we bo deserted by the whole world, we de
clare before God and all men our firm resolution
never to submit to tyrannical power, but to con
tinue this just wnr of self-defence to the last drop
of our blood. God and the civilized world shall
judge between us and our assailants.

Address or tiie San Francisco Assembly.—
The Alla CaRforniunn, of Juno 24, contains an
Address to tho people of tiio Territory, from the
Legislative Assembly of San Francisco district.
This document w liich covers a pago of thut paper,
calls on tho people to act promptly for them-
solves in tho organization of a regular State Gov
ermuent; they are now without any Government,
mixed mass of human brings from all regions,
sod of ail tongues and habits, impelled by the
ssine feverish desire of fortune making. The
United Slates has assumed tho right to tax them,
not only with a representation, but without giv
ing them any Government at all, making them
•bear tho burthens of the Union without enjoying
its benefits, thus violating in tiiem tho first prin
ciples of freedom. Thereby Congress has, so to
s&f, abdicated its authority to control them, and
thrown them bock ou their natural rights, espe
cially in tho right of institutinga Government.
In this emergency whntsortof a Government
can they set up which will bo in accordanco with
tho United States Constitution and violate no duty
to their beloved country or her institutions?
State Government. It is not necessary that tlioy
should pass through a territorial administration
in order to become a State. Texas did not. And
for population they will certainly have enough
before tho meeting of Congress. By organizing a
State Government they may also settle "a great
and harrnssing political question in tho United
Slates” which must certainly defeat a territorial
organization for a long time. Tho question Cali-
fornia has to settle for herself, and tho sooner tho
belter.
Tho Assembly accordingly recommends a con
vention of twelve delegates from each district, to
bo held at San Jose on the third Monday in Au
gust next, for tho purposo of framing a Stato
Constitution and setting it in operation. And till
tiio new Government is adopted, the people are
advised to keep their district organization.
Proclamation of General Riley.—General
Riley has issued a proclamation which produced
very great excitement, in consequence of tho
doubt* entertained by some as to his authority.—
In this proclamation ho says
"Theundersigned, in accordance with instruc
tions from tiio Secretary of Wnr, has assumed tho
administration 0/civil affairs in California, not as
u militarygovernor, but as the executive of the ex-
ixlingcivil government. In the a bscnceofa proper
ly appointed civil Governor, the commanding offi
cer of tho Department is, by the laws of Califor
nia, ex-officio civil Governor of tho country, nnd
the instruction* from Washington wero bused on
tho provisions of these laws. This subject lias
been misrepresented or at least misconceived, and
currency given to the impression that tho govern
ment it still military. Such is not the fact. Tho
military Government ended with the war, and
what remains is the civil Government recognized
in the existing laws of California."
• • • • i
‘As Congress has failed to organize a now Ter
ritorial Government, it becomes our imperative
duty to take some active measures to provide for
the existing wants of tho country. This, it is
thought, may bo best accomplished by putting in
full vigor the administration of tho law* os they
now exist, and completing tho organization of
tho civil government by tiio election and appoint
ment of all officers recognized by law: While at
tho inmo time a Convention, in which nil parts
of tho Territory are represented, ahull meet nnd
frame a State Constitution or a Territorial organ
ization, to be submitted io tho peoplo for their
ratification and then proposed to Congress for its
nnnrnvnl. 11 nm ...til -- t l
approval. Considerable timo will neccssarilv
elapse before any new government can bo legiti
mately organized nnd put in operation. Jn tho
interim the existing government, if iU organize-
be completed, will bo found sufficient for all
tion
our tcinpora'ry wants."
A meeting was held by the people of tho Pueblo
and San Joso, on the 3rd Juno, when resolutions
approving Gen. Riley's proclamation and tfio
call ofa Convention for the organization of a State
Government, were adopted.
A subscription was on foot to survey nnd buoy
theSuisan Bay and thoSacramento River between
San Francisco and Sacramento City. Capt. Ring
gold, U. 8. N., has been employed to make tho
survey.
A band of desperate white men had killed some
30 or 40 Indians, Such barbarities may possibly
provoke an Indian wnr.
Ani'«r.or Magnesia.-People should bo very care
ful in the use of Magnesia. It is a very dsngcrous
substance to uao, and there are loo many, wo be
lieve, who use it for the stomach for "heart
burn,” who do not know the dangers attending
its employment for that purposo. Tho use of it
has been the cause of many cases of "stone,” and
it has been discovered that tiio terrible disease in
Switzerland called Goitre, is duo to the action
magnesian salts on the system of tho inhabitants
—the salt* being found in solution with U10 wa
ter# of tho Swim valleys.
FonoEDTnEAsuBV Notes.—On Wednesday, at
Boston, a forged $600 Treasury note was passed
off 10 Messrs. Dlaip k Westfield, brokers.

ONH DAY PATHSK FROM ESUUOPHS.
BY EXPRESSES AND TELEGRAPHS TO LIVERPOOL.
The Very Patent lYom Ireland.
Oranob Demonstrations.—Tho usual demon-
stratiqna of tho Orangmnon cRino off on tho 12th
uU. Iho accounts recoived, lend us to buliovo,
that the palmiest days of Orangoiam never pre
sented such a scene as was on tiio "Fair Hill” in
LqrdMnsscrcono’sdcniesiioln tho town ofAntrfm.
It Is said that no less than from 00 to 70,000 pco-
plo wero present. At Lisburn and Lurtran, largo
assemblages were held. In Cavan tlicro was n
neat turn out, tho brethren wore headed by tho
Ion. Somerset Maxwell, who addressed lift fo I-
owera, in tho usual hot protcalant stylo. At
Castlewollnn, in tiio county of Down, n largo pro-
cession camo off, and Balloybray, tho locality
wliero tho notorious Sam Gray enacted Orange
deeds of wonder, was also visited nnd perambu
lated by iho professod followers of William of
" Glorious power nnd inunortnl memory.” It is
satisfactory to lenrn that thore was no rioting, and
all passed off with good feeling nnd harmony.
The Queen’s visit.—At Dublin, Cork nnd
Belfast, thqpreparntionsnro being carried on with
activity. 1 hero ia not, we find, so much enthu
siasm about tho matter, ns ono would havo im
agined—Kings’ and Queens' visits to this unfortu
nate laud being, like thoso of Angels—' 1 few nud
far between.”
Tiio Democratic Irishman of this day has just
readied us. nnd on the subject of tho Queen's
visit tho Editor displays ids feelings of hatred and
contempt for British rule nnd authority. He
a*k»—" Why comes this Queen amongst us ?
Docsshoconio to insult our misery? Docssho
cotno to hold revel in the high court of Death ?
Does slio como to dazzlo tiio eye of bankruptcy
with a drawing room? She will viow Killnrncy,
but she will not visit Toomevara. She will behold
tho splendor of tho Vico-rcgnl Lodge, but alia
will not gazo on tho charnol bone-ynrd of Bnlli-
nasloe. Slio will hear tho chorus of Luxury, but
her ears will bo closed to tho scream of Misery.
Sbo will breatho the perfume of tho saloon, but
not tho rank smell of tho vermin-bitten corpso.
She will cat of rich meats and drink of rich
wines, white men, like Diamond, gorge tho flesh
of n stranded body nnd swallow tho rotten blood,”
Tho Irishman calls upon its readers to rercivo
Royalty in solemn silence, and to mark well all
persons who will about and cbccrat her approach,
«■.by that moans they can then have a census of
Partino Address or the State Prisoners.—
Tho partingaddrcM of tho State prisoners is much
talked of. Its total absence of self, nnd tho for-
bcaranco of any complaints on their persecutors
is warmly applauded, and rimy yet cause tho
Ministry to relax their strong hold of theso polit
ical martyrs. It is said that tho Swift sailed un
der scaled orders, nnd that It is thought tho Cup-
tain carries out a proposal to bo made as soon as
ho reached tho latitudo in which ho breaks tho
seal of his command, that thoy shall cxpntriuto
themselves from British soil forever f
The Keys of Rome sent to the Pope.—Ac
counts from Rome stato that General Oudinot had
sent tho keys of tho city to tho Pope.
Tho tono of tho Paris journals respecting (ho
reception of the French at Romo, is vary contra
dictory. Tho Moniteur says (hat tho declaration
of tho stato of sclge is an art of great tyranny on
the part of Oudinot, or else it exhibits a necessity
for his providing for tho protection of his troops
against tbo ill fooling of tho Romans j and wo
lenrn, by into accounts, that oven tho precaution
taken has not been sulficient, as several of tho
French sentinels Imvo been poinnrdcd in the dead
of tho night. Tho Debats extols the wisdom of
tho measure.
Rumored Intention of Attempting to Re
store Louis Philippe ! I!—One of tho loading
conservative London morning papers to-day
states that M. Thiers contemplates making a de
monstration shortly in favor of tho ox-King of
the French. It is said he will head a largo num
ber of tho National Guard and members of tho
Legislative Assembly, who will ask leavo of nb-
senco from their duties, and proceed to London
en masse, and tendor to tho lato Sovereign tiio
renewed expression of their homage.
The Pestilence.—Tho New York Journal qf
Commerce says: ''There ore many occurrences
and incidents in connection with tho cholera pesti
lence, which, if thoy could bo gathered would
form pages of Ihrillingand terrible interest. The
ilans frustrated, aud affections sundered, tbo
lopes crushed, Ibohcftris broken, would all to-
S lhcr mnke volumes in the strange history of
0 life nnd death of man.
"It is not as if men died of tho fever, which
wurns them nt least,by days of burning heat and
parching thirst, and mad pulsations. It is not as
when men dio by the slow gnawing of consump
tion, wasting gradually away into tho dust where
of they came 01 iginully But the warning is often
brief, tho pain slight; tho heart grows feeble, and
the pulse slow and heavy. Tho coldness which
aunotinccs tho upproach of death, is frit at tho
seat of life, nnd before tlioy can liayo time to bid
tho living good-bye, they aro of (he dead. Says
a correspondent:
" Standing somo days since, in iho depot of ono
of our principal railroads (where the road con
nccts with the steamer,) wo saw a man lying in
the corner. Ho had come off (ho boat a few hour*
previous, and passing towards the enrs, was taken
suddenly ill with the symptoms of the prevailing
disease, lie wasnn Irishman, and had nia family
with him—but thoy did not wait to seo him dio.
The car* started, nnd the wife and children left
the husband and futber to battle alono with tiio
coining terror. Itwnsrnidnightandinter. Lying
uluuo In lire corner of that largo building, who
can tell tho visions thut haunted him. lie wns
from a far land, doar to him, doubtless, in tho
memories of boyhood. He had not been long.in
this, and wherefore he camo wo know not; cer
tainly it was for another fnte than this. To bo
abandoned thus, to meet death faco to face, alone.
Was it not terrible?
" Morning dawned grnyly and mistily over
hint. It wns yet early when wo stood by him.
Ho said ho thought I10 should do well enough if he
could lie still and rest, but thore wns even then
on Ids features that indescribable expression
which wo have often noticed foretokening dissolu
tion. It is not simple palor, nor immobility of
countenance, but it is as if the shadow of death
wns cast on tho forehead and eyes, nnd lips, by tho
light of tho world which lies ou tho other sido of
tho grave, or us if men already began to bear new
sounds nnd sec new scenes, and thus bo abstract
ed gradually from theso.
"Hewusdying. It could not be doubted. Men
spoke of moving him to tho Lazaretto, but ho
begged to bo allowed to real—only to havo rest.
Poor follow ! Rest to his iron frame and sun
burnt arms and brawny hands, was rendy; nearer
at hand, nnd calmer rest, than ho wonld havo
wished had lie known it.
j ,ia * P a ^ n » hut his breath grew heavy
and difficult, and his broad chest heaved nt inter
vals with the Irnhw; of his breathing. HP had
spoken often, bQRriy, and now his volco en
tirely failed, hliVyes began to glaze, nnd it was
evident that tbo pains and toil*, the doubt* and
disappointments of living, for him were nearly
over.
"There was no convulsion, no ngony, but at
length a long gasp, and all was still. ‘He is dead,
said tiio bystanders. The dying man started,
nud half raising himself from tno floor, gazed with
a wild, earnest, even longing gazo on those
around—a gazo that none but a dying man is ca
pable or giving—taking in nil tho world iu Us
swift swoop, arid then foil back again. There wns
a long breath, a quiver of tho thin nostrils, n fulnt
clutching of the hand, and ho was gono. Noth
ing remained to bedono for him but to bury him,
and before noon, in tho midst of a heavy storm of
rain, unattended by clergy or by friends in n
lonesome spot of never consecrated ground, the
poor Irishman was laid to await the final sum
mons.
"At sunset of ono evening he wns strong and
ardont.and happy, surrounded by thoso ho loved;
at sunset of the next evening, deserted aud aban
doned by all affection, six feet of earth shut out
the sunlight from him.”
To Ills Honor the Mayor,
