THOMPSON, EDITOR. T E n M s: Daily Paper, $4,00 ::;r. Tri weekly,...... .$2.00 All new Advertisements appear In both papers. Disgraceful State of Tilings iu Garrard County, Kentucky. A correspondent of the Louisville Journal, writing from Boyle county, on the 10th inst shows the ex istence of an unhappy condition of tilings in Garrard county. He says: “Some two or three mouths since, a Dr. Evans, liv ing iu a rattier notorious portion of the county, known by the name of Sugar Creek Mills, rtiot down, in the town of Lancaster, the county seat, one of his neigh bors by the name of Hill. Evans made hie escape with out being arrested, and is now, it is supposed, in In- diana. A few days afterwards, the alterin' of the coun ty, with aposseo consisting in part at least, of the friends of Hill, went to the house of Evans to take him. He had already left the county, but his house was armed and defended by his family and clan, who fired on the sheriff and possce. Fifteen or twenty or moro rounds, it is said, were fired ou both sides. At length a parley was obtained, and the sheriff, having ascertained that Evans was not at home, left. One or two men were slightly wounded in this minnture bat tle. Since that time the Hills and Evanses have been armed to the teeth with bowie-knives, revolvers and guns, Mid their houses perfect garrisons. At lenst such is the current report, believed to be true. No oollislsn, however, took place until last Monday, the first day of the election, when one of the young Evanses and one of the Hills met accidently on t tc sidewalk in the town of Lancaster, at or near a stair way leading from the street into tho second story oi tho bouso occupied ns a saddler's shop. 1 outig Evans designed to ascend tho stairs to tile shop. They drew their pistols mutually, it is said by one report-— by another, cornin' from Hill himself, however, Ev ans drew and fired on Hill. The hall struck the han dle of a pistol in his pocket, which saved ms hie. ifho Hill gang, whether by accident or design is not known, were near, and immediately fell upon Evan* with knives, and cut his throat on each tide and hia upper lip nearly off, and gave him a severe wound in the head, and were literally cutting him up, when his brother, who happened to be above stairs in the shop mentioned, came to his assistance, nnd shot down from or near the head of the stairway, with a revolver, successively, it. Util, Fred. Hill, Win. Hill jr„ and llenry Sagcny, a brother-in-law. Nu merous shots were made at him without killing him. The battle srems to have been over the body of the other Eva is. who lay wearing In his blood at the bot tom ot tne stair way, and who was supposed to be dead None of the five wounded men are, however, yet dead, and it is thought they may all recover. Ev ans, the hero of the combat, was taken into custody, but released, it is said, without trial; perhaps to a- wnitthe result of the wounds of the Hills. The facts here stated may not be correct in tho de tails, but are probably so in the main. 1 have receiv- sd them from several sources, nnd nmong others from a gentleman who visited the wounded man, who waa formerly a neighbor of both pnrties, with a view of endeavoring to make up the deadly etrite. He, however, gave it as his opinion thnt it would not terminate till one or both clans were exterminated. They still breatho the most deadly vengeance. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Bulletin writes that the Russian Minister, M. Bodisco, has just Issued an imperial uknse, which is addressed to the citizens of the U. S. and all others whom it may concern. It is in these words: “ Literary and scientific works, objects of art, indus try and natural history, have been sent from all coun tries to the emperor, and to tile members of the imperial family, in such numbers that it has been found necessary to establish certain rules for their ad mission. Hereafter, and from this date, all persons wishing to address the emperor or the menibers of the imperial family are requested to inform the Rus sian legation of their intentions. In every case the Russian legation is bound to apply for a special per. mission, and when received, will advise the inter ested parties. The observation of these formalities will bo strictly enforced and no notice whatever will be taken of those who neglect the above regula tions.” will be made towards a slate of comparative prosper ty- ______ Lamartine thus writes iu a late publication on universal sufferage: , , “A day will come, I have no doubt, when the head of a family will depose in the electoral urn as innuy votes as there ore old men. women end children at hli hearth; for in a society better made it ie not the individual—it is the family which is the permanent unitv. The individual passes away. Faintly remains The principal of social conversation » there, it will be developed, nnd there democracy will have as much stability as monarchy.” Washington, May 27(4. A seriouB accident occur red yesterday evening ut the Academy of Visitation at Georgetown. The wooden pillars supporting the frame porch, gave way, while a number of teaciiers and scholars were upon it. Sister Felix had both legs broken, and a young lady received a dangerous wound on her bend. Rev. Dr. Ryder nnd several nuns nnd misses were all somewhat injured, but none it is thought seriously, except Felix. Singular Relationship. Josinh Pomeroy and Phebe C. Farnum intermarried the other day iu Massachu setts. In this marriage, it is said by the papers, that a singular relationship takes place. The bridegroom becomes a brother to a neiee of his, and that noice becomes sister to an uncle, the bride becomes aunt to one of her own brothers, and a sister to that brother's mother-in-law. The brido is aunt to a father and his children. PnoDUCE West.—Reported Scarcity.—There is a great scarcity of flour and grain in the west at this time. The at. Louis papers, particularly, complain greatly, and produce is actually going from Cincin nati tuid Wheeling to thnt place. Arrivals are anxi ously looked for at St. Louis from the Lakes, nnd several times lately flour lias reached there from Chi cago. With reference to this mutter, the St. Louis Republican, of 18th instant, says : “ Boats from all the upper rivers come down now with very little freight. The regular traders on the Missouri bring but Tittle, and those from the Upper Mississippi comparatively nothing. The Illinois boats too, are falling off in the size of their cargoes, nnd everything goes to show thnt there will be a speedy close of tile produce business for the present season, unless our neighbors of the Lakes take it into their heads to scud lorward more Hour and whent. The scnrdty of prodnee is the cry from every quarter, nnd but few in this city remember to have everecen receipts so light at this season ot the year." SATAKrss'AiBio Monday Morning, June 3, 1850. Further Intelligence by the Asia. The despatches received in London on Friduy, the 17th inst., from Paris,’announce not only the recull of M. Drouyn de l'Huys, the French Ambassador to the British government, but his ar.tual arrival in Paris. Lord Normanby, the English ambassador at the French Court, had not left thut city. A charge d’af- fairs has been left in charge of the embassy in Lon don, precisely as it was before the arrival of M- Drouyn do l’Huys. The Times Bays : The tone of the Marquis of Lansdowne and Lord Palmerston, last nigift, did not warrant any alarm about the result. But that the sensibility of the French is deeply wounded, there is no doubt; nnd in the pro ont critical state of Pans and all France, it would bo rash to predict that very grave results may. notenme. , . It is very probable that the Greek question is made use of as a pretext for d^gerting the attention of the French people from the political questions which at present engross the attention of the Legislature, in the hope thnt an animated quarrel with England may gain favor of the French Government with the troops nnd the people. This conjecture Is strengthened by the fact thut the announcement of the recall of the ambassador from London was ri c sived by the Con- sorva'ives in the French Assembly with frantic ap plause, whilst the members of the Left remained silent. The following explanation was given in the Assem bly on tile lGtli inst : The order of the day was the interpellations of M. Piscatory on the affairs of Greece. General De La Hilte, Minister of Foreign Affuirs ascended the Tribune, and said : Gentlemen, in the sitting of Saturday last I had the honor of announcing to the Assembly thnt, in consequence of the failure of our good offices in the negotiations pursued at Athens, the Government of the Republic had considered it its duty to apply to tho English Government for explanations. The re ply which was given us not being such ns we had a right to look for, considering the good intelligence which existed between the two countries, the l’resi- dent of the Republic, lifter having taken the advice of his council, gave me orders to recal from London our ambassador. (A loud burst ot cheering from the Right, clapping of hands, cries of “bravo, bravo renewed cheers and clapping of hands from the same quarter. The Left all this time remained silent.— The approbation continued at lenst five minutes.) In the House of Lords oil Friday, Lord John ltus sell, in reply to an interpellation, stated that no or ders had been sent to Paris for the recal of Lord Nor- manby, and he trusted no steps of the kind would be necessary. Troops are bebtg poured into Paris. The Voix du Peuplehas been seized by the police almost every day j mayors nnd their adjoints are dismissed from their offices beenuse they have signed petitions against the electoral law; mobs of people assemble around the offices of La Pressc, nnd on Wednesday the li cense of the Voix du Peuple was wholly withdrawn. In fact every thing protends a fierce struggle. Petitions from all quarters are 6ont in" against the new clectorlal Bill in France. The whole party of the Nutioual, including Dupent do l’Eure, Grodclinux, Marrast, have sent in a firm petition nnd remonstrance against its passing. The riotere who had been arrested at Crenzot, in the department of the Soane and Loire, were subse quently rescued by the mol), nnd when the Prefect reached the place the insurgents amounted to about 8000. Troops were marching to the scene of disor der ; and Gen. Castellan announced in his dispatch, received in Paris on Monday last, that there « as no doubt of the disturbance being soon completely sup pressed. The proposition of M. Cretan, for the abrogation of the law exiling the Bourbons, has been rejected by a large majority of the Commissioners of Parliamentary Initiative. At Rome thepower of tho Pope is greatly on the decline. The Government measure abolishing the office of the Irish Viceroy contemplates the creation of three new crown appointments : a Secretary of State for Ireland, ot a salary of £5000 per annum, nnd two un do* secretaries, one with a seat in Parliament, and the other without legislative duties. The Salary of the Parliamentary Secretary is to be fixed at £2000 a •year. Lord Clarendon will accept the chief secretary the last meeting of the Poof Law Guardians of Fire! About 12 o’clock last night, a fire broke out in the attic of the large frame tenement on Broughton-street belonging to Mrs. Marshall, nnd occupied by Mrs. Jane Yonoe ns a boarding-house. By the prompt exertions of our firemen, the flames were prevented from communicating to the buildings adjoining, nnd the fire extinguished before it had burnt more than the uttic story in which ihe fire originated. The hou ses on either side were also of wood, and if waa bo confidently expected that they would be consummed that the furniture and goods were removed. The building may be valued at $2000. No insurance. Wo believe that most of Mrs. Yonge’s turniture was saved. Too much, praise cannot be given to our firemen for the promptness and skill which they displayed ou this occasion. Nothing but their well timed nnd well directed exertions saved the entire block from being consumed. The little experience they have had of late, has served to develop their ability to encounter the devouring clement, and their success last night was a most gratifying proof of their superior skill. Savannah has a right to bo proud of her fire organi zation, of which it is not boasting to say, it will com pare favorably with thnt of nny city in the Union. Coroner’s Inquest.—An inquest was held on Sat urday, on the body of Alfeed Robinson, late mate of the Bark Texas, whose death by drowning we mentioned in our paper of Thursday last. His body was recovered during the morning, floating in the ri ver in the vicinity of the Iron Steamboat Company’s Wharf. From tile Isthmus By the arrival of the Falcon from Chagres at New Orleans, the Ficnyune has Panama dates to the 9th ult. The steamship Oregon, Lieut. Patterson, left Pn- naran on the lst^inst. for San Francisco,, with her usual complement of passengers, among whom was Col. McAllister of this city. Tickets by the Oregon, held by speculators, sold on the eve of her departure, at enormous prices—steerage commanding from $550 to $600 and upwards, mid cabin from $800 to $1000. The Star says one cabin ticket had been sold for $1250 t There were about 2000 emigrants on the Isthmus when the Fnlcon left. Vessels were daily expected with about 1200 more, and the cry was still thy come —tickets having been sold in New York.as for ahead ns July nnd August. Tltere had been some little rowdyism among the Americans. No News of interest. Another Expedition.—Itisstated that two ves sels are now, or have been, fitting out—one at Boston and the other at New York—to take the part of So- louque in the struggle against the Dominicans. To help his imperial blackness I We doubt this statement. Negro sympathy rarely manifests itself in any such way. 53P* The steamer Isabel, Capt. Rollins, from Charleston for Havana, touched ut our city on Satur day nfternoon at 3 o'clock, nnd received the mails and passengers, and proct e led on her voyage. i" if ' The Abolitionists are at work in Washington again. Three domestics in the family of Hon. Wm. Colcock were spirited away on the uiglit of the 25th ult. About twenty slaves have been recently enticed away from Washington nnd vicinity.' Death by Cholera on Shipboard. The York shire arrived at Now-York on. Monday morning from Liverpool, having lost 22 steerage passengers by cholera during the voyage. Itis not mentioned how niuny days the Yorkshire had been out when the disense showed itself. Massachusetts Fourth District. In twenty three towns of this district, from which returns have been received, the votes stand for Thompson (Whig) 2330; Palfrey (free soil) 2083 ; scattering 330. There is probubiy again no choice. More New Coins.—Specimens or illustrations of the two new coins proposed in the bill presented by Mr. Dickinson, in llie United States Senate, have been struck at the Philadelphia. The cent, containing a small proportion of silver, is designed as a substitute for tlie copper coin now issued, it weighs twenty-five grains; thepreeentcent, one hundred and sixty-eight It lias a circular hole in the centre. The three cent pieces, composed of three-fourths silver and one- fourth copper, are intended to be exeh auged fur tile “lips, and quarters,” of Spanish type, now and so long infesting our currency. The exchange is to be made at current value, and not by weight, so as to induce a rapid and general recoinnge. The piece weighs twelve and three-eighths grains, and its diameter is just mid way between the half dime tuid gold dollar. The Pennsylvanian says that these coins arc decidedly morn elegant and convenient than those now in use. wp trtisrthey will be authorized to be issued. The Cnbnii Invasion.—Gen. I.opez. Since tlie news has spread of Lopez’s fuilure_and escape to the United States, there is much comment in tho papers on the subject oi his attack on Culm, nnd from the tone of a portion of the presses of the country.it would seem that a storm of virtuous wrath and indignation is gathering to beviBited with unnlint- ed fury upon that gentleman’s devoted head. Suc cess makes the patriot, failure the traitor, lind lie been successful iu his desperate venture, thousands would have hailed him as a patriot hero, who now de nounce him as a rebel traitor, and what is a little re- murkable, the bitterest denunciations of him are to be found in those journals, which, until now, have pre served a marked silence on tlie subject of tlie inva sion, or treated the meditated treason with indiffer ence. For our own port, we regarded the enterpvize, from the first, as n desperate ami hopeless adventure ; but, ns we knew nothing of the parties concerned, of the actual merits of their cnUBe, or of their ultimate de signs, we have contented ourself with watching the progress of events, with only nil occasional allusion to the rumors in circulation, in which we expressed our doubts, both ot the practicability nnd morality of the movement, so far as our people are concerned. As we have been made acquainted with the grievan ces of the people of Cuba, we have sympathized with them, and hnd they been successful iu throwing off the yoke of tile odious Sixinish monarchy, we should have bailed their liberation with unfeigned satisfac tion. With regard to Gen. Lopf.z, wo have not been able to inform ourself sufficiently of the relation in which he stands to the Cuban people and their cause, to judge of his conduct or motives. When we met him in this city on the morning of his arrival, we saw in him only a gentleinnn who had recently sutt’ered disastrous defeat in a cause in which he had ventured his life, nnd hnd escaped froty his enemies to our shores. In common with our fellow citizens, we commiserated ilia situation, without, at the time, en tering into an investigation of the mexits of tlie cause in which he hnd been engaged. From highly Colored statements .which have gone abroad of Gen. Lopez’s reception here, an impression has been derived that our citizens mani fested on thnt occasion, in an unbecoming and extrav agant manner, their approbation of the invasion, nnd their sympathy with those who hnd been concerned in the unsuccessful attempt upon tlie Island. Iu this, injustice has been done to our citizens. No city in tlie Union lias had less to do with or less concern about the Cuban affair than th^ city of Savannah The arrival of General Lopez, nnd the news of his encounter with the Spanisli forces caused con siderable excitement in tlie public mind. It wi known that many Americans of character had fought with him. In the flush of the moment, there came an order for his arrest. He was a stranger nnd ha 1 committed no offence against outlaws. It is nat ural under such circumstances thnt there should have been some impulsive manifestation of sympathy in his behalf. Those manifestations, however, were not extravagant or disorderly. He was duly arraigned nnd subjected to the forms of law. The charge was one which could not be sustained by available evi dence. Th is city hnd not been the theatre of his op erations, and there was no proof to authorize hia de tention. After a formal hearing he was discharged from custody, and departed next morning ouliis wny to Mobile, where he was still amenable to the laws of the country, nnd where evidence o£his crime, if crime he lias committed, may yet be produced. It is true that a portion of the crowd accompanied him to hie lodgings and cheered him on tlie way. But there was not the slightest manifestation of a disorderly spirit or of a disposition to set at defiance the laws of tlie I country. One misstatement has beon mnde in connection with this matter, which, in justice to the District At torney, should be corrected. It lias been said that there was informality in tlie warrant under which Gen. 1-opez was arrested. This is not the fact. The papers were all iu strict accordance with legal form, nnd the examination was conducted throughout, with all the usual formalities and rigid observance of the principles nnd practice of our Courts of Justice. Since writing the above we have seen the New York Courier and Enquirer, and tlie Philadelphia North American, which papers are loud in their denuncia tions of our Court for permitting Gen. Lopez to go at large, nnd of our citizens for having treated him with any consideration. The Courier goes so fur as to charge collusion between Judge Nicoll nnd the District Attorney, while the American expresses its nstoniahihent that Gen. Lopez was not re-arrested, for the speech which he is snid to have mnde on arriv ing at the hotel, in which he declared his determination to persevere in his enterprize against Cuba. No such speech was mnde by Gen. Lopez, to the crowd who accompanied him to the hotel; and if he had uttered the words attributed to him, wo think it would puzzle the Editors of the American to find law, even in Penn sylvania, to punish him for such a declaration. The insinuation of the Courier against tlie integrity of the officers of our Court is perfectly gratuitous, and whol ly unsustained even by the semblance of truth.— The newborn zeal which these journals mnnifest in tlieir strictures upon tlie Cuban movement is calcula ted to defeat its end by its own intemperance. Public opinion, fortunately, is not to be moulded by the opin ions they may choose to utter, and the attempt to char acterize all concerned in it—among whom there are men who rank, intellectually, morally, nnd socially, far above the carpet knights of the quill who indict tlie lenders for these transcendental journals—as “ pi rates,” robbers, “freebooters,” and “cowardly plun derers,” will only have the effect to array a weight of public opinion in tlieir favor, which otherwise would uof have concerned itself about them. So far ns our legal authorities and citizens are concerned ; we repeat thnt no blame can property be attached to them, and we venture the assertion that there is not a city in the Union, tlie inhabitants of which would have observed a greater degree of propriety under such circum stances. Had Gen. Lopez arrived in Philadelphia, Boston, New Y’ork or Baltimore, under the similar cir cumstances, we doubt if the civil authorities would have been permitted to arrest him at all. We nr very certain that they would not if he had chosen to resist the authority of the law. But even if there hnd been an improper demonstra tion of popular sympathy on the occnsion, which there was not, such homilies as these pnpers read us, come with a poor grace front the cities of Philadelphia nnd Now York, in tlie former'of which, mob-law, with its nightly riots, murders, nnd robberies, sets the legal authority at defiance, while iu tlie latter, organized bands of men have paraded the streets in open day, unmolested by the authorities, with banners t.nd mu sic, openly proclaiming tlieir participation in the Cu ban movement. The treason was- hatched and nur tured in New York, and now that nil the money lias been made out of the speculation that is likely to be obtained, the virtuous indignation of her press is aroused against the “pirates” and “f^ebooters" that were outfitted by her merchants, and finds vent ill the abuse of those who have had no concern with them or their cause. Death of the lion. F. H. Elmore. The telegraph brought the melancholy intelligence of the death of Mr. Elmore, on P'riday atternoou last. He died at Washington at about half past 8 o’clock on Wednesday night. Mr. Elmore lind been ill feeble health lor some timo past, but shortly after he repaired to Washington, ho was attacked by tho severe illness which resulted in his death. Ilisdis- euso is said by some accounts to have been bronchitis ; by Olliers his death is attributed to erysipelas, while the Columbia Telegraph ascribes it to a neuralgic af fection. Mr. Elmore occupied a promenent pluce among the public men of tlie country, nnd next to Mr. Calhoun, perlinps, wielded the largest influence in his own .State, which hnd conferred many honors upon him. Ilia dentil was announced in the Senate ou Thursday, by his colleague, Senator Butler, wlto delivered an eloquent, eulogy on the character of the deceased. He was followed by Hunter of Vn. Webster, of Massachusetts, Davis, of Mississippi, nnd Y'ulee, of Florida, when appropriate resolutions of respect for the deceased, nnd condolence with the re latives, were unanimously udopted. Tho Funeral took place on Friday. Good Logie, from n Northern Source. In future, when we find ourself indulging in tlie belief that the people of the North nrc becoming in sane on tlie subject of slavery, we will turn to our files, and read thcfollowing from the New Y’ork Mir ror. If tlie editor would apply a little of hia theory to practice, an# give a cordial report to those mea sures which tire designed to put an end to the Slavery crusade, und to silence the outcry of those canting hyprocrites who make it the endless theme of denun ciation and misrepresentation of tlie South, he would render ou essential service to his race nnd country. Rev. Mr. Bcechcr and the Journal of Commerce.— The Journal of Commerce some time since in its usual excellent way attacked the habit of preaching “Free Soilism" from the pulpit, its articles have been the subject of much comment both in and out of print. This morning Dr. Beecher occupies three columns of the Courier in defence of political par sons, and winds up a long, but very illogical article by the following queries : 1. Whether American slavery, as it is established by law in the Southern States, is right, morally or politically 1 2. Will it state distinctly whether Christ and the apostles approved, or in any way gave assent to the rectitude of such a system of slnvcry ns by law exists iu the United States ? 3. Will it state distinctly whether the system of slavery, existing by law in the United States, is a mat ter which concerns tlie people of the North, and whether Christian men have any Christian duty to perform with reference to tlie subject ? 4. Will it point to the authorities nnd the facts on which it declares the North to have kept slaves as long as the system was profitable, and then sold the slaves to the South ! • We answer unhesitatingly that slavery, as establish ed 1n the Southern States, is not wrong morally, and is right politically. Christ und his apostles distinctly and unqualifiedly disavowed any interference with the political relations of man; and if silence be consent, approved a system of slavery for more arbitrary than “the system by law existing in the United States.” Slavery existing by law iu the United States is a matter which no more concerns the people of the North than it does the people of Great Britain ; nnd “Christain men have a Christian duty to perform with reference to tlie subject,” which duty is to “render to Ciiitfur tlie things thut be CtBsnr’s and to God the things that be God’s.” The fourth question needs no answer. No matter what the reply, it in no way can affect the argument It may stamp the Northern agitation us selfish, or it may admit®it to be perfectly disinterested; but.notli- ing will be thereby proved., Now, ts Slavery a wrong? It is a wrong iu the same manner, nnd no other, as the refusal of a participation in public affairs to men under 21, nnd to women of all ages, is a wrong. So cially it is right, politically it is right. Two races of nearly equal numbers, us widely separated by color as the races that inhabit our Southern States, can only exist in the relation of master nnd slave. We have said before and say again, that tlie question presented to our choice is not abolition of slavery merely, but amalgamation. Amalgamation would deteriorate the white race. In our whole country, whose motto is progress, tho nboiitiou of slavery would innke the From Havana.

Capt.

This says the Picayune, would make a na tional affair of it at ouce, audit was perlinps fortunate for Spain that the Cuban authorities did not carry out tlieir intentions. The Delta contains an engraved portrait of Gen. Lopf.z, and a representation of thetlag of Cub). Both Picayune, and Delta, contain an eloquent ad dress from Gen. Lopez to the people of the United States which he had prepared nnd left in New Or leans with instructions to publish it on the news of Ilia landing on tile Island. BP Tho correspondent of tlie Baltimore Sun, i his letter of the 28th, says: A careful estimate mnde this morning of the pro bable vote of tlie Senate, would show that it will re ceive the votes of twenty Southern Senators, oi three Northern Whigs nnd of seven Northern Demo-1 ernts. In my opinion, ut least four votes notin the | estimate, will, upon u pinch, be given for the coin promise. It is said that Mr. Corwin will, this week, speak a the champion of tlie President’s plan—taking up the I glove that Mr. Clay, the other day, threw down. But it turns out, as I suid it would, thut for the President’s plan no Senatorial advocate can be found, out of the ranks of theWilmot Proviso party. Mr. Corwin, itis | well known is for the Wilmot Proviso. Gen. Lopez. This gentleinnn arrived at Mont gomery, Ala., on Tuesday afternoon from Savannah, und left on Wednesday evening in the steamer Pratt for Mobile. We understand, (says tlie Atlas.) that while in Sa vnnnah, lie was arrested by u telegraphic order from the Secretary of Stute, hut was released in fifteen minutes afterwards; whereupon the citizens pave twenty-one cheers for the Cuba Expedition and six groans for Old Zach's Secretary of State, adding six more for the officers who arrested Gen. Lopez. We shall hear next that our city was illuminated in honor of the battle of Cardenas. I A telegraphic dispatch to the N. Y. Comma- cinl dated Washington, May 29, says. It is reported that despatches have been received et I the Spanish Legation that fifteen hundred additional I prisoners had been taken on tlie Southern coast of I Cuba, in two large vessels. The greater part of these were Americans, and a discharged and permitted to return to the U. S. while I those ot other nations bad been summarily tried by | court martial. It is also reported thnt it lias been determined in I Cabinet council to hold the Cuban authorities to rig-1 id accountability for the treatment of American^ I nnd thnt a special agent is to be dispatch' d fortn-1 with by tlie State department to attend to the bus | iness. This is all very improbable.

Syphilis. It is much superior to any preparation oil Snrsnparilla ns an alterative, being more active cad I prompt in its operation on the system. These fact) I have induced the subscribers to present to the attenT tion of Physicians a fluid extract prepared strictly ac-l cording to Chemicnl nnd Pnrninceuticnl science, dc-l void of all tlie feculent and inert parts of the not doubting that it will supersede the unscientific slid j crude preparations hitherto used.

Southern States tlie only exception; the white race thru would, instend of taking one step nearer the tin ge], take one step backward towards the ape. Indeed it is apparent that tlie abolition of slavery in tfcj South can only be effected by physical force, by the tonquest of tlie white race. He who preaches abolition of slavery nnd incites liis hearers to such political action, preaches war, war with horrors thut have not been known since the ex tinction of the Albigenses. He stands at the sacred desk not tho minister of Christ, but the minister of Satan. What is the intent of the Christian religion, what are its doctrines ? Love. Not that bastard love which warms tlie heart towards the negro and freezes it to wards the white man. llow does the Christian faith operate? Upon tlie heart. What is tlie object of its ministers' reproof? Sin. What is sin ? Doing evil or thinking evil. What is the object of his exhortations ? Faith, hope, and charity. What ie the example thut tho minister should propose ? Christ, if Dr. Beech er will not try to be better than Christ; if he will not make broad his phylacteries nud attempt to excite the admiration of his congregation by standing aloof from those he deems publicans, we will give flint ad miration to bis Christian humility which we must re fuse to his logic. One word at parting. The monks of former ages, in their character of Christain ministers, lamented’ that men should be held in service to man. They preached no crusade, they launched no clerical thunder against a social sys tem : but, in the hour of sickness nnd death, they in sinuated to the sufferer doubts of the benefits of serf dom, ami suggested the freeing of villains as an act which might find grace in the sight of God. Thus very many slaves were set free. True, the Church kept all her own, but too much must not be expected from poor human nature. Jjy The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Express states as a rumor, that Mr. Clay is about to go over to tlie democrats iu order to reach the presi dency. The Baltimore Clipper (Whig) pronounces this all pure gamm^, Stranger things have happened. Tlie Northern papers have been generally led into error by the telegraphic dispatch, announcing the ar rest of General Lopez, for his piratical attempt upon Cuba, as having taken place at Charleston, instead of Savannah, and of the patriotic demonstration made on the occasion of his discharge by the United .States District Judge, for want of evidence of his guilt. We trust thnt they will set this matter right, before tlieir readers, ns the citizens of Charleston have no ambition to deprive the public spirited citizens of Sa vannah of any laurels they may have acquired by this demonstration.—Clt. Coiir. We hope tlie editor will quiet his fears. If the chivalry of the Palmetto State never linve any tiling morn to answer for at the bar of public opinion than such sins of ours as may by chance be laid at their door, they will have no need to fear the verdict. We hear, says the N. Y. Commercial, that Professor Stuart, of Andover Theological Seminary, has in press a defence of Mr. Webster and of his last speecli in the Senate. It is to be entitled “Con science tuid Constitution," nud tlie professed design is to take n Christian view oi tlie subject. We np- prehend, from the known ubility, calm temper and clear-sightedness of the venerable author, that his production will be u sensonuble rebuke to many pro- iessing religious men, who liuvte freely indulged in sneers and contemptuous language upon Mr. Web ster’s course, both in public and in private. New Locomotive.—A Mr. A. Waterman ot Fishkill, N. Y„ hns just completed the construction ot a new locomotive of his own invention to be used in conveying trains of cars through cities. It's so con structed as to emit neither fire or smoke, and travels at the rate ot seven miles the hour. It is snid to be a very ingenious contrivance, and was manufactured at tho machine shop of the Mattewan Company.
