Wo fcol that wo trespass, somewhat, on tho patienco of our readers, but there are two things in the article of tho Courier of yestorday which wo will not suffer to pass unnoticed. In the first plaoo, wo published word for word, in its entire integrity and without a word of inter lineation, an extract from our Now-York corres pondent touching this point, as thooditorof tho Courier can ascertain by examining tho original.— It is a perversion then in tho Courier to say that tho editors of the Republican interpolated tho words “slick a pin there.” This shallow device falls short of its aim. Ini the second place, wo cannot permit the editor of tho Courier, supposing aa ho did that we would say no more, to crow upon the idea that he had Beared us from our ground by tho valiant suggestion that, utterly contemptible .as our articles havo been, a series of actions for defamation might bo brought against us. To such matter os that wo havo only to say, that we stand ready to moot judicial investi gation With all who seek it. They who go to law must go with clean .hands, and cannot work in the dark. Wo havo complained of tho want of light. It might bo possible, in court, to get a sight of that contract which tho Courier promised to ex amine ; it seems that othorwiso it is a scaled book. A word in behalf of our Now-York correspondent. Heisaneoredatbytho Courier as a hireling. All irion are hirelings who for paygivo their personal service, and thoroforo it is no reproach to bo a hireling. But tho report of Simeon Draper, it Boems, quotes Brunswick Bonds at 771, and because it does so, our correspondent must need be taken for a fool. It so happens that In Ml our examina tions of tho report of tho Brokertf Board in New- York, we have never soon these Bonds quoted stall. It will bo recollected by our readers that it was tho house of Simeon Draper which advertised the Brunswick Bonds on account of the Company last Jane, and which (according to tho newspapers) sold them at about 73. Tho Brokers, who are “Atreling#* of course, published only what their principals authorised them to publish. These Bonds were advertised in printed slips with a map attached, and tho following representation was, therein, made by the Canal Company: “’i’he Brunswick Canal and Railroad Company was chartered by tho Stato of Gooraia, in 1835. which charter was renewed in 1851, with perpetual privileges of a liberal character. The State tun subscribed and paid $50,000 to the stock, and the Company havo expended n capital of $475,000 on the Canal, which Is all but bnishod; and tho pro ceeds of the Bonds are to be applied to tbo pay ments for the completion of tho excavations, and of the building of the two locks, one at each terminus of tho Canal. They will require no moro money to fulfil all their engagements for pefectingtheir works, which ore in active progress, and the Canal Will be opened for traffic, on the 1st October next. " Tho Altamaba. and its forks, tho Ocmulgee and tho Oconee, with their numerous tributaries, afford an inland steam navigation of ovor 1,000 miles to Macon, Millodgevillo, and all tho great contra! cot ton-growing regions of Georgia. Immense quan tities of this staple, and of the vast supplies of ex cellent pino lumber, which cover a portion of the country, are wafted down these waters, but ore pre vented a froe access to the Atlantic, by the bare which obstruct the mouth of the Altamaha, in com mon with all tho great Southern rivere. • * • Recently our General Government surveys (see tho reports of Captains Stockton, Sheburn, Claxton and ethers, 1826 and 1837) pronounced it our only safe and accessible Atlantic harbor, for large ships, South of Virginia.” Now, we submit it to tho judgment of our read ers, whether this publication so made by this Bruns wick Canal Company to sell thoir bonds, was fair, truthful, candid or honest. The subscription by tho Stato is mentioned as if it had recently been made, when it was made and sunk years ago.— The Oconee River has not had a steamboat on it in ten yean or moro,and one cannot go to Millodgo- ville. Cotton and lumber are not prevented a free access to the Atlantlo by tho bare which obstruct the mouths of all tho groat Southern rivere, except the inlet to Brunswick. The naval officers, who in 1836 examined the subject, did not report that Brunswick was “the only safe and accessible At lantic harbor for large drips South of Virginia.”— They did, however, expressly state that tho "bar at tho mouth of tho Savannah River is the deepest and most accessible of any on the Southern coast.” ■We; ask if even the Courier, in its great zeal for this project, would justify such a statement os was madoto soll theso bonds.! And wo ask even the Courier, if tho men who resorted to such represen tations ate not justly and properly to be attacked by a public journal of the city of Savannah ? And wo oak the Courier what would likely bo the re covery, ; in damages, in an action against ns for such on attack 1 If there has been any slander in this business, it was the Brunswick Company that slandered Savannah to puff Brunswick. ipondenco of Savannah BopublicanV * «'nnv n 1 nrfnril. “This taint pervades the work, just as it docs the wri tings of all the modern schools of philanthropy. Uta essentially a non-religious If not an antl-cvangciicai school. Mrs. 8towo labours through all tho book to ren der ministers odious and contemptible by attributing to them sontitnonta unworthy of men or Christians." them sentiments unworthy or men or Tho Observer also makes some extraordinary re velations as to tho kind of morals provalont in the Uncle Tom's Cabin school. In tho course of the book, Mrs. Stowe hnd brought certain charges against tho Rev. Joel Parker, D. D. mentioning him by namo. Dr. Parker, feeling himself aggriev ed, wrote Mrs. Stowe two notes on tho subject, to neither of which would sho deign a reply ; but to a third letter, she answered in a defiant tone. Finding no other remedy, Dr. Parker at length made ar rangements for a libel suit against Mrs. Stowe, laying tho damages at $20,000. This was an ar- gumentum ad rem; the fair authoress becamo very pliant, addressed a noto to Dr. Parker, and in an intenriew with him made acknowledgments in part, but laid tho blamo on the nowspapere from which sho had taken tho statements. Tho Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, tho brother of Mre. Stowe, then stepped in to help his sister out of the difficul ty, and soon after, throe letters appeared in tho N. Y. Tribune and Independent, with tho editorial arrangements of tho latter of which,Mr. Beecher is connected. The first of theso letters purported to bo a letter from Dr. Parker to Mrs. Stowe, asking an interview; the second from Mrs. Stowe to Dr. Parker, confessing that aho had wronged him, and promising to make all proper amends; and tho third from Dr. Parker to Mre. Stowe, saying that if sho would allow him to publish her letter, he thought that would bo all that was noeded to placo him right in regard to tho unpleasant affair. Wiih regard to theso pretondod letters, ‘ho Ob server makes tho following astounding statements. “Now. what will be tho surprise of every reader not of the abolition schcol, when we ststo,nswo now doj that Dr. Parker aaaurcs us that he never wrote one woi of the above tellers, that he never signed his name to ono of them, that he never authorized their publication, that he was as much surprised as any one else could be, when he heard that such letters were In the newspapers. The Bev. H. W. Beecher called on him, and In his (Dr. Par ker's) house, drew up certain letters, ns If between Mis. 8towe and Dr. Parker, and proposed to Dr. Parker to adopt those In his name as his own; Dr. Parker Inform ed Mr. Beecher that bo would take tho matter Into con sideration, consult bis legal adviser,Into whoso hands he had placed the business, and as he (Dr. Parker) had no wish to obtain Mrs. Stowe’s money, but merely justice, he hoped that by some suck mttkod, the whole matter might bo settled. WUh this. Mr. Beecher look his de parture, and shortly afterwards, tho letters quoted above appeared in the Tribune and Jndeytninnt. Dr. Parker R resumes (though he does not know) that the letters are ie same which Mr. Beecher showed him in his house; but Dr. Parker affirms that no Inducement would hare led him to write or sign his name to such letters as thoso ascribed to him, nor to accept of Mrs. Stowe’s aa satis factory.” Comment upon this is unnecessary, The Crescent City and the Caban Authorities, WeTeceivod tho telographio despatch contain ing the news from Cuba, at so Into an hour on Wednesday, that we had not time to make com ment on it. Wo are disposed now to await the full account of theafiair, for in all cases of insult to our country or its flag, it ia best to know all tho facts. If for the alleged sin of Purser Smith, the Span ish Government has indeed undertaken to interdict the landing of mails and passengers from the Cres cent City, we view that undertaking as a violation of Treaty engagements. If an order was given to the master of tho steamer to depart from the har bor of Havana, wo view such order as an irisult to tho flag of our country. A gallant and accomplished officor of our navy commands tho ship. Wo think ’there murt bo somo raistako in tho statement that he was unceremoniously ordered off. But wo wait tho full accounts. Savannah the Best Abased Town in Christendom, We find in tho Charleston Courier of yesterday, a communication over the signature of Galen, in regard to tho health of this placo, which surpasses any thing in the way of slander wo have ovor seen in print. The writer publishes tho following note, which he says ho "received from a physician” in Savannah: Savannah, Oct. 6, 1852, 3 o’clock, A. M. I hasten to Inform you of the rapid increase of yellow fever in this city. Fifteen cateaand twelve deaths, I - ”" last thirty hours. Make what use of this letter you think proper. It is hard, very hard, for one to preserve his tem per when ho sees such a vile slander as this in a respectable newspaper. We shall not trust our selves to speak of it in tho terms it deserves, but will simply say there is not ono word of truth in the noto purporting to bo from this place.— Wo furthermore call upon tho writer of it to come forth, if indeed it was written in Savannah, and make good his libel. Will tho writer come for ward! Will Galen. *h« correspondent of tho Oturier daro to give up his nnmo t It is all a con spiracy to defame, to injure, and to slander this community. We regret to say that tho Charles ton Courier is partieeps eriminis. Tho oditorhas suffered his paper to bo made the medium for utter ing what he ought to have known was destitute of all truth. Wo trust that the "physician” who con ceived the slander—Galen who communicated it to tho Courier—and the Courier which communicated it to the public, will step forward and mako a clean breast of it. They are all concerned in the publi cation, and it is for each to relieve himself of his complicity in tbo matter. Will they do it! We predict that the note in question will turn out to be a forgery. The poison has already reached Augusta. Tho Courier was received there yestesday afternoon, and at 7 o’clock last ovening, ono of the editors of this paper received the foltowing private dispatch from a friend in that placo: AUGUSTA. Oct. 7. It is reported here that there have been twelve deaths In tho last thirty hours from yellow fever In your city.— la this a fact ¥ We replied, of coureo, that it was not a fact, but a falsehood. There has not been a single death or case of yellow fever in Savannah in tho time here indicated. Tbo members oi tho Board of Health, as well as ourselves, were diligont in making in quiries all day yesterday, to ascertain if any now case had occurred. Not one caso could bo heard of any whore. This is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. It will be seen, by reference to our advertising columns, that a mooting of tho Physicians of the city has been called at uoon to-day. We are glad they have acted thus promptly, and trust they will not stop in their investigations until they ascertain clearly the author or authors of this wicked and in famous outrage. If there be a wolf in sheep’s clothing among thorn, let him bo dragged to tho light. Wo repeat, however, our belief that tho wholo thing is a forgery. —Since tho above was in typo, we have received tho following report: Georgia Medical Society. At a mooting of tho Georgia Medical Society, on tho evening of the 7th inst., Dr. Arnold offered tho following preamble and resolutions, which wore unanimously carried: Whereas, Many false and malicious reports have * ----- - )fe • been circulated respecting the existence of epidemic Yellow Fever In our city, during this season, Board of Health.—Wo ocknowlodgo the re ceipt of two communications at too late an hour last night for insertion in this morning’s issue, both euggosting that the Board of Health should make daUy reports on the health of tho city. Such a course is ! considered necessary to counteract the ahamoloss falsehoods circulated to tho prejudice of our community, Wo respectfully urge upon tho Board tho propriety of promptly acting upon the Buggostion. ... We havo boon, requested to state, that purchasers at tho lato salo of lots in Laurel Grove Cemetery are required to pay the purchase money within ten slays from the date of salo—othorwiso, tho lots revert to tbo city.

Wo regret to state that a fire occurred at 10 o’clock last night, on the Eastom Wharves, which completely destroyed the Eaglo Steam Saw Mill belonging to J. Quantock, Jr., Sc Co, with a few small out-buildings attached thereto. A largo quantity of lumber was also consumed, and the rigging and spars of the brig Rollerson, Captain Baker, from Boston, much injured. Tho Rollerson had just cleared for Boston with a cargo of 80,000 feet of lumber. We are not informed whether “oro was any insuranco upon the Mill and lumber. m APuyat Oxford, LONDON, SEPT. IS. >850.! ' ^ JJimiWinni.-—No «tt*nger should pus through England without a visit either to Cam bridge or Oxford—seals or learning, which, for cen turies, havo continued to send forth cultivated in tellect, which has shod so much lustre on this country, and cfoatod the gigantio monument of British literature. Independent of tho many,at tractions which thoso places, present, in the way of architectural beauty, ancient relics, libraries, mu seums, and galleries of art, the system upon which theso institutions are conducted is, to Americans, peculiar and novol. Thoy are, os it were, littlo confederacies, formed of many colleges, each, in a measure, independent, with its own governor and officers, yot all united under one general govern ment for the regulation of tho wholo system. All theso colleges are, according to the manner In which wo are accustomed to uso tho term, Universities; yet, here, University is appliod to its collective ca pacity only. Tho names and distinctions of tho various ranks in theso Universities are not readily understood by the stranger, and strike tho Ameri can as decidedly absurd. Perhaps the greatest pe culiarity Is in tho institution of fellowship and the endowment of college livings. The former has, doubtless, done much for the promotion of loiters; but, whether college livings have been the means of advancing morit and scionco, is vory questiona ble. Though originally designed to insure a com petency to talent, to enable it to labor in the fiold of lottors,tho object, perhaps, is rarely accomplished, and the charity of benefactors grossly abused; for, instead of promoting literature, it has evor proved an encouragement to idleness and dissipation. Tho collego living is forfoited, and also tho privileges of fellowship, on marriago—an objoctionablo feature, os it is an inducement to remain in the bachelor state—a state which is not much admired in this Protestant ago. I shall now give you a littlo sketch of my visit to Oxford. 1 spent only ono day thoro; and, though 1 saw a good deal, yet to seo all, would require a week or more. There are no less than twenty col leges there, about oach of which there is plenty of tho beautiful and curious. Independent of theso colleges, however, there are objects which belong to tbo Univorsity, in whioh all are alike interested —such as libraries, museums, See. Whon one re flects upon tho royal munificence which, for tho last six centuries, has been lavished upon this Univer sity, tho princely bequests of benefactors, and tho contributions which have so long blessed Oxford, ho may justly look for on accumulation thoro of tho mo6t invaluablo treasures. In this respect, a visit will not disappoint him. Tho materials of which theso buildings ore com posed ore generally tho same—and it is unfortunate that thoy could not have boon better. Tho Mono is of a soft and crumbling, character, which is ill adapted to stand tho touch of tho iron hand of Time. Tho exterior of theso noblo edifices now pre sents n very ragged appearance—looking much older than moro anciont structures. The most im-, portant collego is Christ Church, founded undor tho auspices of tho illustrious Cardinal Wolsey; and* on entering tho immenao gateway, undor tho high tower, into tho spacious court, tho oyo is attracted by a tftntuo of that venornblo personage, in a niche in tho wall on tho right. Tho college hall is striking and magnificent. It is considered unri valled, as a refectory, by any room in tho kingdom. Another interest about tho room is, that it is tho apartment in which royalty has always been en tertained while visiting Oxford. Around tho walls hang tho portraits of many distinguished charac ters, nearly or quito all of whom have bcon indebted to tbo college for their lenrning and eminence Tho library is vory extensive—contains, as the librarian informed me, 130,000 volumes—tho room fine, with the most exquisite stucco ceiling I ever saw. In the picture gallery, I loitered soveral hours, enjoying " the feast of reason and tho flow of soul,” amid some of the choice productions of tho old masters—Raphael, Guido, Correggio, Ti tian, Tintoretto, &c. This gallery soems, with few exceptions, to be devoted entirely to Italian art and copies from tho Italian. Among the paintings which especially pleased mo, I remember several, viz: Interior of St. Peter's, by Panini; a Madonna and Child, by Raphael; a picture representing Rebecca at the Well, and Abraham's servant pre senting Bracelets, by Guido ; a Butcher's Shop, by A. Carncci; a head of Medusa, by Rubens, and the Last Communion of St. Jerome, by Domeni- chino. In tho entrance hall to tho gallery nre some finely sculptured busta, by Sir Francis chan try, tho Senior Bacon, and Rysbrach. 1 was par ticularly struck by ono of Goorge III, by tho second, and a couple of Georgo I and II, by the last. The collection of paintings which 1 saw at tho Christ Church gallery is tho finest I have seen in the kingdom. Tho English are great patrons of tho polite arts, and I doubt whether any portion of tho world offers moro beautiful specimens than may bo seen in England, where they have boen brought by the wealth of the nobility, collected from all parts of Europe. I visited almost all the largo Colleges, with their fino gothic chapels—“Queen’s,” "All Soul’s,** " Merton,” " Now,” " Magdalen,” &c. Tho last has decidedly tho finest grounds. " Mandlin’s learn ed grove,” as a poet called tho rich and deep wood near Magdalen, is a classical retreat. I strolled along tho avenue styled "Addison’s walk”—a walk certainly vory romantic, and highly adapted to the peripatetic student. Tho great library of tho Univorsity, which is opon to all graduates of tho Colleges, is tho celebratod Bodleian, which was founded by Sir Thomas Bodley in tbo latter part of tho sixteenth century. I was informed that it con tained somo 250,000 volumes. A vory interesting collection oi relics is shown there, in tho genuine ness of which ono can placo moro rolianco than in those which may bo seen in many places. A largo gallery of portraits is connected with tho library, in which may bo seen some of the best of Sir Peter Lely, Kneller, Vandyke—two by Sir Joshua Rey nolds, &c. A portrait of George 3d in his corona tion robes, by Ramsay, is vory striking, and a fin ished picture. In portrait painting, few artists are as happy as Ramsay and Lely—at least according to my fdney. I am no connoisseur, you know, but I express myself as my taste and limited oxporienco dictate. I can tell whon I am pleased and when displeased. I am not writing for posterity, yon must remember, but merely dropping my passing impressions on paper; and, if tho critical sages should snarl, I’ll jump up and confront them with that celobratcd address commencing- u You’d scarce expect one of my age.— 1 It being vacation season, the Colleges were almost a solitude, and looked moro like old deserted pal aces than anything else. I had a very good and intelligent guido from tho Angel Hotel—of course ho ought to havo been all right—who “ pu; mo through” in fino stylo. He is quite a classical blade, and discourses bravely on tho beauties of sci ence and art. History is a mere baublo with him, and ho talks of Henry VIII, Queen Bess, King James and Charles, and Queen Anne, os though they were his school mates. I should highly recom mend him to any who proposo looking at Oxford, for men of his stamp, liko all visitants from tho angel place, are “ few and far between,” aa tho poet tolls us. Among tho many architectural ornaments of tho town, tho Radcliffo Library building is peculiarly conspicuous. The u Martyr's Memorial" is a gem of a monument. Near the spot of its erection per ished Cranmer, Latimer' and Ridley—victims to bigotry and religious fanaticism. It is an entirely now structure, raised within a very few years past. Tho town of Oxford, liko all English towns, ia quite nico. It is situated iu a quiot valley, with a picturesque and undulating country surrounding it. In looking down Irom somo neighboring hill, Ox ford pri >nts tho appearance of a city of palacos, so numerous are her fino hails, colleges and public buildings. It’s Mayor, you remomber, is quito an important peraonago, and during tho coronation of English Sovereigns occupies a rank noxt to tho Lord Mayor of London. From time immemorial, Oxford seems to havo been a pot of royalty—tho re cipient of princely favor, for which England and Englishmen and the world, should bo heartily grate ful. Mac. European Items.

As Commandor-in- Chief, the Duke was cntitlod to draw something ovor eighty dollars a day, or about $30,000 annual ly ; and as Colonol of tho Grenadier Guards, he was entitled to nearly $6,000 a year more. He drew a pension of nearly $20,000 annually, and was in possession of property given him by tho Brit ish nation, to tho amount cf £700,000, or nearly $3,500,000. Tho pension will continue to bo paid to the Duke’s two next mail heirs,who also inherit his largo ostatoa and his titles; but most of his offices and emoluments are to bo scrambled for by the nobility and others; and rich prizes they will bo for tho disposal of tho ministry. The new Dnko, at the time of his father’s death, was at Frankfort, whence ho was immediately summoned. Ho has hitherto homo tho titlo of Marquis of Douru, and until tho last election ho en joyed a soat in tho IIouso of Commons as mombor for Norwich. Ho is 45 years of ago, and bears a considerable, although not a striking rosetublanco to his father. Ho has never token any prominent part in public affiant nor is ho likely to do so. Tho Duko’s second soi, Lord Charles Wellesley, was with him at the timo of his death. Ho is 44 years of ago, ond has a seat in the House of Com mons os member for South Hampshire. Tho lato Duke’s personal habits were extremely tomperato, if not abstemious. He slept littlo, and, whethor from old military associations or for health’s s&ko, used a hard mattress and camp bed. He appoarod to avoid display in his dress, equipage and attendants, preferring horso oxerciso to tho state and luxury of a carriage, and even when In creasing weakness rendered it a task of some diffi culty to sit erect upon horseback, day after day ho was still to bo seen ambling slowly down to tho Houso of Lords, ttjuching his hat to tho crowds assembled round the ontranco to catch a glimpse oi tho veteran warrior. His household was said to bo a modol of i^ood order and good manage ment. He incurred no dobts ; punctual and pre cise in all his dealings, he was nlways just, and fre quently, though prWately, gonorous. His Water loo banquets, which for many years drew around him his surviving companions in arms in his last glorious field, were the only exceptions to his usual indifference to display. On theso occasions only, tho massivo services, of plate and priceless china, pictures, statues and all tho other favors, honors and presents which h»d been conferred upon him by tho sovereigns of Europe, were not inappropri ately displayed.
