M.. Tuesday Morning, September 3, 1850. Largest Circulation in the City!! Anotheb Heavy Freight. The Steamer Oregon, Cupt. Shaw, left our city on Saturday morning for Augusta, with a large and valuable freight. She car ried about 200 tons of freight, a portion of which was in a fiat. Wo noticed among the cargo 145 hlids oi Molasses, 15 lihds. of Sugar,.u large quantity of Bagging, Oil, &c. ?tll our steamers now carry heavy freights, und tho hum of business under the bluff, be gins to remind us of the approach of winter. The river is in tino navigable order, and all goods “have quick dispatch.” Fall Business Commencing. The present in dications uro in favor of a very large fall trade- larger, perhaps, than lias ever been transacted in Sa vannah. Within the pust live days some twenty ves sels have arrived at this port laden witli goods for our merchants, who aro receiving immense stocks of groceries, dry goods, und plantation supplies, for the fall trade. In a few duys our market will be stock ed with a full supply of all the articles demanded by tho interior trade, and our merchants will be prepar ed to supply country dealers on ns liberal terms ns they can he supplied in any other Southern market. Tlio facilities of trade between this city und the inte- ior of this State, ns well as portions of Tennessee and Alabama, nrc daily increasing. Our merchants have felt this fact in tho increased demand from those sections, and have prepared themselves to meet and second the movement which is destined ultimately to make our city one of tile most important commer cial ports on tho Atluntic Coast. Our correspondent, Equity, reminds us tlint while rents and real estate has greatly advanced within the past year, there has been no correspond ing advan ee in the wages of our mechanics. We are not sufficiently conversant witli the matter to be able to judge of the disparity of which he compiuins.— Wo have always been under tho impression that wages here were ns high as in any other Southern city j if they aro not, wo 6eo no reason why they should not be, as certainly the laboring mnn’s expen ses liore are us great ns in any city in tile Union.- We think our correspondent may regard the Im provement of which we spoke as a favorable indica tion, tor it is a well settled principle that where oth- r interests prosper the raachnuic arts must also prosper. The price of labor, like everything else is regulated by the supply and tile demand, and will command its value. Southern Medical I.lterature. Southern Medical Rei>orte. An., Ac Edited by E. D- Tenner, M. D., ot New Orleans. Vol. 1,1849. New Orleans, B. M. Norman : New York, Samuel 8. ft William Wood. It is a well established fact, that diseases are mod ified by climate, soil, and lucidity. Climate in its proper sense is not constituted by lines of Longitude; hut is varied by other causes, such ns elevation nbovo tlie level of the sea, vicinity to water, absence or presence of woods, us is well known to the scientific Meteorologist It is a singular fact that olio of the Isothermal lines of the world, as laid down by Humboldt, runs across the whole continent of North America, almost in the latitude of 36 deg. 30 min. Although nil the Southern States,except Maryland, Virginia und Kentucky, lie below tills latitude, there is still a very great diversity of geological formation in the various Southern States, or indeed in parts of the same State. For instuuce, our own Goorgiu bus every foiinution, from the alluvium of the seaboard, to the granite of the upper counties. it is a fact in nature, tliut lertile soils arc us prolific of the sources of disease ns they are of tile fruits of tho earth. To this cuuse it is owing that the teeming soil ol the South has rendered its climate more des tructive to huinun life tliun the less fertile soils of tile more Northern Stutes. Tho opportunity then lor observing diseuso is frequent for tlio Southern prac titioner of inediciue. The fact that many skillful physicians exist amongst us cannot be dou bted. Yet for one Southern physician who writes out his observu tions, there uro u hundred Northern ones who do the same. Whence the difference 1 We answer, first: from tlie violent nature of tlio discuses predominant amongst us, und the frequent changes in them from tneir periodical eliuructer, the pructicc of tlio South ern Bliyeiciun is more arduous than Unit of his more fuvored Northern confrere. His time is so much occupied by practice, that he can really spare But little of it for writing essays, and hunting up au thoritics. His essuys are limited to Uie bed side, und tlie only authority he cun conveniently consult, is the gieut one of nature. Second—tlie spurscucss of our population prevents that aggregation of medicul men which, utter all, from the constant collision of intel lect it gives rise to, is one of the greatest incentives to assuming the pen. Dr. Tenner of New Orleans, long and favourably known to his professional breth ren Uirougliout the Union, from his connection with tho New Orleans Medical Journul, ns one of our few Southern physicians, whoin the midst of active medi- cul pursuits could find time to wield his pen, bus de termined to uifordun incentive to medical men in the South to enter upon the field of professional litera ture. About fifteen mouths since he issued a pros pectus for publishing unnuully a volume of medical reports on the medical Topography, meteorology and prevalent diseases of the Southern States, to ho fur nished by physicians practising in those States. The volume now before us, published ill the beginning of this year, is tlie^firstjfruit of tiiis enterprize. Contri butions to it have been furnished from Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, South, Caroli na, Georgia, Florida, Arkansas, Tenessee und Texas. Although Dr. Tenner, in tlint portion of u book last written, but first read, his preface, speaks with great modesty ot the contents of the volume, edited by him, (and to which hehas also largely contributed) we are much mistaken if tlie medical profession do not place a much higher estimate upon it than he has done. The truth is that he has collected ar.J embo died a vust deul of highly useful information, and such ns w 11 hereafter greatly contribute to the pre servation of hculth and the prolongation of life, in tlie exposed portions of the Southern States. Wo hope he will persevere in his lauduble undertaking. It would be out of place, in a daily like ours, to go into any detailed criticism of tlie several articles. But we do cordially and conscientiously recommend it to the favorable attention of the medical profession at the South,and think tlint every Physician ought to make himself possessor of a copy. It can be ohtuined at the book store of Mr. J. II Cooper.

CHARLES. A. GR^I Jockey Legislation. The Washington corres pondent of the Newark (N. J.) Advertiser 6ays: “Some jockeying has already been exhibited in planning tlie bills, for the best chance in the race. It the Territorial Bills are prescribed first, und the Wilmot is pat to them, as it may be ill the House, there will be a flare up, or a stampede, as it is called, on the part ot the south ern gentlemen, to interrupt business. If the Texas bill can be passed, possibly California admitted, then tho Territorial Bills may be overslaughed, aud thus General Taylor's plan came out with success, from the necessity of the case—which, by the way, was both ita foundation and' defence. An effort will be made, if practicable, ,o amend the Texas Bill, by ob taining more land for New Mexico. If successful, tho majority for passing it will be much increased.” The writer thinks the territory in dispute is “bound” to becomu free soil. W ashington Rumors A dispatch to the N. Y. Express says It is tlie general belief tlint tlie Presi dent will veto the Fugitive Slave Bill, on the ground of the unconstitutionality of the provision. Another rumor states that Mr. Kennan’s resigna tion has been accepted, and that Mr. John M. Botts of Virginia, will receive the appointment.

Among the newest discoveries connected with the nrt is ouo by a Mr. Brady of N. York, by which lie is enabled to tuke Dnguerreaii miniatures ill Ivory. By this process, says the N, Y. Tribune, it is believed that miniatures enn bo obtained nt less thun half the original price of these beautiful and hitherto costly works of art. Tlio specimens we have seen of the new process combine hi an emi nent degree the beauty of a fine painting with the fidelity of tlie Daguerreotype. This improvement, when fully established and thrown open to the pub lic, will no doubt win its way to general favor. Another important discovery is thatol Ifr. Howes of Boston, we believe, by which nn ordinary sized daguerreotype miniature cun he magnified to life size, or larger, if necessary, and thrown upon' n can vass or any other flat surface, retaining nt tlie same time all the clearness and detail of the daguerreotype, so that nn artist may seat himself before this mugni- tied reflector and render it a perfect copy, in light Riid shade, os well as outline, ot the original. This discovery will facilitate tho work of the portrait paint er, and save a large amount of time consumed in sit- l.ng. [ communicated. ] Friend Thompson : In your article of Saturday morning, commenting upon the scarcity of house, and tlie ndvunce of rent, you forgot to stute tlie tact that the city authorities had reduced the taxes on real estate twenty-five per cent. How is this ? House rent has advanced, cotton 1ms advanced, the price of negroes has advanced, abolitionism to the contra ry notwithstanding j brend-stuffa have advanced. In fact there is notan article, (tea excepted,) that the poor man eats drinks or wears, but what lias advanc ed ; and how is it, I would enquire, that with all these facts before us the wages of the mechanics arid la bouring classes remain stationary? How is it possible tor them to meet their increased expenses, and sup port themselves and families without their wages ui e increased also. This is u subject that should attract tlie serious consideration of the mechanics and work-' ing classes. EQUITY. Baltimore, Aug. 26—P. M. Severe Gale on the Chcsapcohc Iiay- The steamer Gazelle returned this murning from St. Michael's Camp Meeting on the Eastern eliore, and brought up Capt. Barlow and the crew ol tlie schr Savannah, trom this port ior Newport, R. I. with coal, which was sunk oil Harper’s island, in tlie bay, during the severe storm on Saturday night. The Gazelle also reports passing in the bay a schooner und porgee up- sei. A report prevailed at the camp ground that tlie schooner had on hoard nn entire family on their way to attend the earup. All nro supposed to have been lost. Several other vessels are reported to have been lost; among them one from Savannah. Norfolk, Aug, 27. Severe Storm at Norfolk. The storm of Saturday night, Irom S. E. to W„ was tlie severest experienced i“ tlle Chesapeake for thirty years past. The steamer “Osceola” had her wheel house blown away, and several, small vessels were seen ashore, some dismas ted, ott the Capes. Several houses in tlie country were blown down, and a woman and two children were killed.—We have heard nothing ns yet from the coast; hut serious injuries are apprehended. Professor Webster.—It is said, upon good nuthori ty, that the medical student who entered Dr Webster's rooms, at the time the dreadful scene ofNovember last was being enacted, will publish a statement, after the execution, giving full particulars of all he saw and heard. It appears tlie student had left his rubbers in the Docter’s laboratory, and finding the doors locked and supposing the Doctor had gone to Cambridge, he raised a window und entered that way.—Boston Her ald. A Revolting Case. Jonathan Muuroe, a farmer, living in Seekonk, Muss., aged 38 years, was arrested on Monday night last, and examined before Justices Shove and Starkweather, on complaint for an assault with intent to commit rape on- his own daughter, a benutiful and modest girl, 15 years of age. It appear ed, n't the examination, that ior tlio last two years he had frequently beat her in the most brutal manner to comped her to yield to his wicked design. The ac cused was committed to jail in Taunton to await liis trial.—Pawtucket Gazette. It is remarkable, in the nbove table, how large a pro portion of tlie British emigrants prefer the U. S. not withstanding all tho exertions ana influences used by their own government to lead them to their own col onies. Last yeRr near three fourths caineto the U.S. This is anew proof of the attachment of the mnsaes in Europe to our free institutions, nitho' the aristoc. racy, and aristocratic writers there, so strongly on- denvor to circulate had opinions respecting us. It is a new feature in the history ot migrations that n large number of the British emigrants are brought over by funds gratuitously provided by relatives al- uily in tlie United States. A writer in tlie London Chronicle, July 15, after learning tlio amount of bills transacted in this wny by five houses in Liverpool, estimates tlint tho grand sum of one million sterling, or near $5,000,000, is thus sent over every year. This, to us, seems nlmoet incredible. But, from whnt has come to our personal knowl edge, we are inclined riot to doubt the fact stated. It is a well known fact that our Irish laboriug popula tion, true to the impulses of a generous nature, send u large portion of their earnings to their relatives in Ireland, to enable them to join them in this lnnd of equality and plenty. It would, perhaps, be a fair es timate to set down one-fourth of the earnings ot the Irish in this country, over their own support, to the afund which is regularly flowing back to Ireland for tile purpose of liberating relatives and friends from the political bondage of the mother country. What ever be its precise amount, wo know it to be very large, and it is a gratifying item, not only in “die an nals of the poor,” but in tlie current history of tlie world. A future Bancroft or Macaulay should not forget it. DVsuys tho Newark Advertiser, remarking on this subject, in edition to the 300,000 British emigrants of last year, we knew tlie number of our own to tile great West, and the number of Russians to .Sibe ria, and the Germans, Dutch, Norwegians, and other Europeans, who are going out to fill up new coun tries, we would be able to torm a more definite idea of the present great Providential movement soon to ulter the entire face of the globe. Wesupposethe whole company will he about one million 1 And this wonderful current is to continue yeai after year—lin'd increase in its millions we know not how many fold, until the prophecy is fulfilled that “ many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." ISF 5 * Tlie President of the City Council of Satillo, in Mexico, lias sent an invitation to the Mayor of Brownsville, Texas, to attend the Annual Fair which is to commence nt the former place on the 25th inst. and continue to the gth of October. As an induce ment, the President informs tlie Mayor that “Besides the regular amusements, there will be seven hull fights, commencing on the 29th September and end ing on the 5th October. Congressional Proceedings, Tlie proceedings of tlie House, on Wednesday and Thursday, were of nn interesting character. The Texan Boundary Bill being called up, and read for tlie first time, Mr. Inge demanded that the hill should be submitted to the test of tlie 116th rule. The rule was read as follows: “The first reading of a bill shall be ior information, and if no opposition be made to it, the question shall be, 'Shall tills bill he rejected?’ If no opposition he made, or if the question to reject he negatived, the bill goes to its second reading without a question.” The Speaker said the question would he on there jection oi tlie bill. Mr. McClemand moved the previous quest'on which was seconded. The main question was ordered. The question was then taken, shall the bill he re jected ? und it was determined in the negative. Yeas 35, nays 168 The hill was rend a second time. Mr. Boyd proposed nn amendment to tlie bill, by ndding tlie bill of the Semite to establish territorial governments for New Mexico and Utah, omitting those parts of each making an appropriation for the public buildings and library in said territories. [By striking out those purts of the Senate Hill for establishing territorial governments for Utah and New Mexico it does nwuy with the necessity, unde r tho rule, of considering those hills in the committee of the whole on tlie state of the Union—and the probability ot their defeat by a long debate.] The amendment having been rend, Mr. Megde raised a question of order—tlint tlio amendment was not gernmin to tho bill, and because it was, in eflcct, contained ill the Senate bill now pending. The Chair overruled the point of order. Mr. Schenck appealed from the decision of the Chair, und demanded the yens and nays. ' These were ordered and taken, und the decision was affirm ed—yeas 123, nays 83. [The elavery question is left by the amendment to be settled by the people of the territories when they proceed to organize State Governments.] The amendments having been read, Mr. Boyd c laim ed the floor to address the House. Mr. Richardson desired him to yield it to him to enable him t8 present nn amendment to the bill, providing for the admis sion of the State of California into the Union. Mr. Boyd refused, butyielded to Mr. Williams, who moved that tlie House adjourn. It adjourned on a vote of 109 to 95. On Thursday the hill was brought rip as the unfin ished business, with Mr. Boyd's amendment giving territorial governments to New Mexico mid Utah.— Tlie hill in this shape is known us the new omnibus. Several amendments were made and {Joints of.or- der raised, which gave rise to considerable debate, tlio attention of the opponents of the measure evi dently being to prevent action on it, in the shape in which it was presented. In tiie course of tlie pro ceedings Mr. Root, of Ohio, moved the application of the Wilmot Proviso. Tlie House ndjourned with out coining to a vote. The Southern Press speaking of tlie proceedings has tho following : Second upset of the Omnibus.—Tlie Omnibus was reconstructed and brought into the House of Re presentatives yesterday, anil started with a skilful parliamentary maurger on tlie box. Another Ken tuckian, but a Democrat, Mr. Boyd, undertook to run it through; but the vehicle immediately went to pieces and tlie passengers weVe all spilt out. Thus ends tlio first chapter in tlie House, of tho adventures of the new coalition. Shameful Mob at Chilicotite.—On Sunday evening last, a set of real scoundrels mobbed the "Sisters of Notre Dame,"at Cliilicothc. The papers of that place are lull of the proceedings, both of the mob and of the good citizens. We understand tiiis is the ninth time that the “Sisters ot Notre Dame,” at the above place have suffered insult and violence since they started their school there. On this occasion their house aud academy was pelted with rotten eggs, and some of these “inoffensive and do fenceless females” were driven forth to seek shelter, while a part remained “sick unto death,” to meet their fate, he it wbut it may. A meeting was held and n reward of $100 wns of fered for the arrest and conviction of the lenders in this disgraceful affair,—Cincinnati Commercial.

E3P’ Tlie Washington correspond! lit of the Balti more Sun says: The programme agreed upon ten days ago by Speaker Cobh and Linn Boyd has been so far suc cessfully carried out. and Boyd's strong team, with Texas, New Mexico mid Utah, iH likely to lie driven successfully through the House, and from the Senate up the avenue and past tlie White House—and all be fore Friday night. The unanimity with which the House sustained the Speaker's decision, and thereby set up tlie new omnibus, is nn indication that it will pnse. The Southern men generally sustained tlie de cision. Every difficulty scorns to lie ohvinted by con necting the territorial hills with the Texan boundary bill, and by putting the whole ahead of California. The distrust that prevailed among the Southern mem bers as to the course of the North is tints removed. Upon inquiry, I linve ascertained that Boyd’s om nibus will pass the Senate, with the aid of several Eastern votes, which were till own against the origi nal Senate omnibus. The opinion is expressed very generally that the two ileuses will he prepared to adjourn inafort- the War Department. subject It is likely to be satisfactory to both Ileuses. MEMORANDA.
