MORNING NEWS. Interesting Anecdote.—The Washington 1,'nion rolotes the following anecdote of two joung Americans, who after completing their education in Europe, were travelling with the view of perfecting themselves in their classic studies. Thus engaged, they were sojourning fora short time in Vienna. One day, while crossing ono of the streets, an Austrian officer of high military rank came dashing along at a furious ratoon horseback. One of these Ame ricans, apprehending that the horse would run against him, raised a small cane, with the view of turning the horse's head; whereupon the officer struck him with his whip. Upon ascer taining the address of the officer, he demand ed satisfaction of him; which demand the of ficer treated with contempt, ridiculing the idea of his responding to an unkown American boy. In this strait the two young gentlemen laid their grievuoce before Mr Stiles, the | American representative at that court. Our charge immediately addressed the officer, and, after recapitulating the facts, informed him he must cither apologiro or give tho satisfaction required, arid that, in the event of his failing to do so, he would, over his own signature, us the representative of the American Govern ment, publish him in every leading paper on the continent as a poltroon. It is needless to add that this demand was immediately followed by an ample apology of the Austrian officer. amidst that blaze of beauty with which the sena tor from Mississippi delights to surround. It foils upon unwilling ears and minds, when op posed by that mute but potent eloquence which Hashes from the eye of beauty—that $ “Language by the virgin maid, Not hoard, out felt; not uttered, but betrayed.” I desire to rescue the Sennte, sir from ihe dangers of this Witchery—to avoid the artillery of Cupid, with which we have of Into been be- seiged 1 and I take counsel and courage from despair, and insist upon that protection which the rules of the Senate afford us. I hope that wo shall not bo considered ungallant in thus striving to protect ourselves. Mr. Hale in the course of the honorable senator’s remarks, suggested that he suspend for a moment, in order that the ladies might be admitted to hear his speech. [Laughter.] Think of both thy Guests.—Remember, in I thy feats, that thou art entertaining two guests, | the body and the soul. Know, further, that thou squanderest at the moment what thou bestoweston the body, but retainest forever what thou gi vest to the soul. Sugar Cane in Florida.—Capt. Sadler, of | Jacksonville Fla., has porduced, considering the circumstances under which it was grown, the most extraordinary crop of sugar on record; and, as the facts in regard to it, if generally known, may be extensively beneficial to the •country at large, we shall proceed to enumerate them ns we collected them from him. He has produced 221 hogsheads of sugar, [ -averaging 1000 pounds each, from 195 aorej of I vane, and has lost at least 50 hogsheads by im- : perfect grinding—having wrought nearly his entire crop with Into broken ■rollers, which would not admit of sufficed pressure to ex tract the juice, by 20 per certt. Another source ! of loss occnrred in cutting down, from appre- I hension of frost, about 60 acres of his best cane, • we months previous to gn indingit. The juice j stood at'the remarkable altitude of 12 degrees I -of Beaume’s Snccharometer, und the sugar is I 'consequently of very superior quuiity. The [ yield of molasses is about 15,000 gallons. The circumstances which r< ndcr this crop | extraordinary in this BUgar climate, are, that it grew on some of our ordinary high sandy ham- I mock land, which had been under a continuous 1 cultivation of corn and cotton crops for a | period of perhaps fifty'years, and was litterally worn out as regards those two objects of culti- [ vntibip—being incapable of producing five bushels of corn or fifty pounds of seed cotton ; per acre; and what renders this crop still more | remarkable is. the fact that « large portion of ■this land has been five years consecutively in cane, without any diminution in the annual pro duce, under so severe a trial of its powers, and t ^ le aid of a particle qf manure.— | without News. A WELL TURNED COMPLIMENT TO THE Li- iks. Mr. Pearce of Md. opposed the adr mission of the Ladies to the floor of the Senate in the following well turned compliment: Mr. 00 . te aa ’d be wished to make his usual motion to introduce the ladies into the cham ber of the Senate. Mr. Pearce. Mr. President, there is a duty to he performed, which I should be glad to de volve llni.n . 1 1 _1J ., The Age of Colonization.—To de nominate this the age of colonization would not be wide of the truth. Our own country is a scene of amazing restless ness. it has become a proverbial remark that her home has no sufficient attraction to keep its children from wandering. “The family pictures are left unframed,” lest they hinder the young heirs from gratifying their migratory propensities. “The old oaken bucket;” the venerable house in which parents h&ve lived and- died ; the village church with its sweet toned bell; the grave-yard holding the E recious dust of kindred; all the strong ondsof home, of consanguinity, of na tivity, of prided institutions, have no pow er to restraintherageof emigration. This is no fiction in American society. The New Englander sells out the old home stead and removes westward. Tho Ohioan, who has battled with savages, want and fear, to redeem a home Irom the wilderpess, is not satisfied. He wishes to emigrate, and he will sell fit a sacrifice to accomplish his desire. To such an extent is this true, that in numberless in stances the farms in the oldest western states are not now owned by those who “cleared them up,” nor by their descen dants. A large part of the original set tlers with their children have gone father west. When we reach the western frontiers we might naturally expect to find this migratory mania some what a- bated. But so far from this, the mania rages with greater violence here than anywhere else. They are longing to pene trate the Indian Territory, or across the Rocky Mountains to Oregon. For such enterprises thousands on our frontiers stand ready. In a word, this colonizing spirit keeps our nation in a prodigious ferment, which mu6l issue in some strik ing results to the country lying vvcBt of civilization. In this spirit our nation is not the only ff#cipant. Nor is this the only manifesta tion of the same spirit among us. Col onization is p anting nations on the shores of Africa. The Criminal laws of Great Britain are peopling a large island i.i the Pacific, whilst the inducements of the government are leading thousands of en terprising and virtuous families to expa triate themselves for a permanent resid ence in the same island and,others. These may constitute nations which in time will be able to rival the mothelr country. Vari ous motives are leading thousands to a permanent residence in the island of the Paciffic; and their example, together with She active stimulants of commerce, is rap idly bringing these islands into the ser vice. of subsisting the human family. In Europe and Great Britain the same desire of emigration at the present time exceeds all precedent. The heavy hand of want is presBingon the lower classes, and they look eagerly to the Canaan of the New World. Prohibitions do not pervent the poor from seeking bread. Nay, so far from restraining the desire, European governments are kindly providing a mid dle passage for their paupers, of which- our almshouses are the best proof! Nor is the matter suffered to rest here. So cieties have been organized to aid the roor in this exchange of countries. Friends already here, and the rich of oth er countries are using a conbined influ ence to transplant to America numerous multitudes, whose wants and grievances otherwise, may become tpo rampant for control. Religious influences also, are urging forward the same enterprise. There cannot be a doubt on this point. The political and religious leaders of papal countrias have their attention rive ted on America, and by emigration they are expecting to accomplish their own designs. As to the evil nr the good of those designs, we are not called on to ex press even an opinion. This church, through various organi zations, and especially the Society of Jesus, has explored the whole country accurately. Thesea, lake, and gulf-coasts have passed under their keen survey, s so that the typography of America is not a of conjecture, but of clear love of adventure, the curiosity of seeing new lands, and more than all else at pres ent, Divine Providence working in revo lutions and in such evils as famine; these andjother inferences,'are combining to press population to our shores in nupi- bers never before equalled. Whatever may he the motives at par ticular classes in this movement, or the iniquity of some institutions of the world, or the special design of Providence in sending famine, the facts remain unchan ged, and we must meet them as such. However fearful the crisis to our coun try, we must feel that' Heaven will frown on the spirit which would exclude the starving from this land of Egypt, whose granaries are pressed out and running over. Self-preBervalion doubtless, is a natural and laudable instinct; hut when carried beyond certain well defin ed limits,it becomes the worst form ol selfishness, and consequently a high crime against humanity and our common Fath er. A Fact—Comphor a remedy for Iti- sanity.—Rapsail the French socialist, has pointed out (the Medical Journal says) one of the powers of camphor, which in a psychological point of view, is most im portant—that of putting a stop to that fearful restlessness which accompanies the first development of insanity. When opium, hysocyamus, conium, stramonium, and “all the drowsy sirups of the East,” fail to produce any effect, a grain of cam phor, formed |nto a pill, and followed by a draught of an ounce and a half of the infusion of hops, mixed with five drops of sulphuric either, is his usual remedy for procuring sleep. J. B. CUBREDGE, Printer of the Daily Morning News, re spectfully informs his friends ami tho public, that having * mado extensive additions to his well selected assortment of printing materials, he is prepared to execute with despatch every vnriety of BOOK and JOB PRINTING, and oil terms as reasonable as those of any other establishment in. the South. By the employ ment of tho best materials and superior Work men, und giving his personal attention to the business, he doubts not that ho will be ublo to give the fullest satisfaction to ull who may fa vor him with their patronage.

Experience has proven both the practicability and Usefulness of the penny Press. Within the few years pest all the Northern end Eastern cities, es well as most of those South and West of ns, have been sup plied with papers of this description, whose small di mensions enable tbeir publishers to issue them at u price so low as to pines them within the reaeh of all, and thus to make them the best mediums for the gen eral diffusion of information on ,all subjects bearing up 1 ’* 1 the interests of community. By cheapening the Press, all have been participants in its benefits; while the publishers and conductors, by a greatly increased patronage,have been mode amply remunerated lor their expenditure of capital and labor. Believing that the growing prosperity of Savannah authorizes, end that her interests demand the-estab lishment of a cheap commercial and news medium, we have determined to publish the Daily Morning News as nearly as possible upon the plan of the penny Press of the Northern cities. The Morning News will be emphatically n Com mercial Newspaper, devoted to the diffusioa of useful information on all subjects of papular interest, and to the advancement of City and State interests, gener ally ; preserving at all times a strictly neutral and independent position inregard to Politics and Parties. Arrangements have been made tor giving the paper all the facilities enjoyed by the best Daily Papers, and no pains will be spared to make it satisfactory in ull its departments, aud to give if the character of a res pectable, useful, and reliable Journal. In view of the great advantages which mast result to the citizens and businessman fromtho establishment of such a paper in Savannah, we feel that we may ask und safely count upon a liberal support. Terms.—The Daily Morning News will be issued and served to subscribers at $-1, per annum, payable half yearly, in advunee; or, 10 Cents per-week, pay able to the Carriers.
