SAVANNAH MORNING NR WS.... ",T UE SD A Y, SEPT EMBER 2 4. 1850 THE MORNING NEWS. BY JOHN M. COOPER. WILLIAM T. THOMPSON, EDITOR TERMS: I>aily Paper $4,00::::: Tri-weekly $2.00 All new Advertisements appear in both papers. OAVASJSJAElo Tuesday Morning, September 24,1830. Largest Circulation iu the City! ! or Our sub scrihers who Uo not receive their pu- pers, will do us the justice to lay it to the charge of the Broken Bone Fever. It has made nearly u clean sweep of our establishment, not even excepting the Devil himself. Wo hope to be all right again in a lew days. The Governors’ Proclamation. Last night’s Western mail brought us Govcnor Towns' Proclamation, calling a Convention of the citizens of this State, in accorduuce with the act of the Legislature devolving that duty upon the Execu tive in case of certain contingencies, one of which was the admission -f California into the Union ad a State, with her unrestricted boundaries. We huvo no space now to comment upon this Pro clamation. We cun only say that it is such a paper, as was to have been expected from the Governor of Georgia. In issuing it he has done neither more nor less thaifhia duty under the law, and wo sincere ly hope, for thn honor and character of the State, that our people will promptly, and with a unanimity worthy oi the important occasion, sustain the action' of their Legislative and Executive authorities Let tho Convention assemble. There is no other honorable course left far Georgia. Let it be compos ed of her most worthy, intelligent, and patriotic citi zens, without distinction of party—of men who will neither be swayed by passion nor intimidated by fear. In the hands of such a body, our rights inter' ects and honor will be safe. Steamship Florida. Wo learn from the Agents here, that it has been found impossible to get this steamer ready as soon as expected—and that she is not now looked for here before the 8th proximo. Another Locomotive, The brig Susan, from Boston yesterday, has on board another freight Loco motive ior the Central Rail Road. Inquest. An inquest was held yesterdny morning at the Guard House, on the body ot James Rowan- who died during Sunday night last, under the follow, ing circumstances. Ho went to the Guard House about ten o'clock, and requested that he might be permitted to sleep there, stating thathe had no board ing house, which request was granted, From hisac tionaitwas thought that lie was luboring under men. tal derangement. He was conducted to a room, and furnished with a bed, aud during the night was very restless, and made considerable noise. He died about five o'clock. Upon examining hisclothes, arsenic was found m#me of his coat pockets. The jury returned a verdict thut he died from some cause unknown to them. t 13P It was reported in New-York, on Thurs day last that orders had been transmitted from Washington city, lor the immediate dispatch of a squadron to the >> cst Indies. One story was, that it was to intercept the new expedition against Cuba. Another was, that Spain has assumed a tone towards this couutry, in her olficial communications, which cannot be submitted to with honor. Another story has it, that demands having been made by tho the American Minister at Madrid, at the instance of this Government, for the release of American citi zeirs resident in Cubs, who had been imprisoned and ruined, without any evidence of a participation in the Lopez invasion—that the Spanish Government had refused tho required satisfaction—and hence, this movement. Congress.—The proceedings of Thursday were unimportant. In the Senate a molion to take up Mr. 1’ratt's bill to punish Negro stealing in the district was defeated, an appropriation of $10,000 made for tho support of the Turkish Envoy, while in the Uni ted States, and another of «200,000 for an extension of the wings of tho capitol. The House occupied the day chiefly in the consi deration of tho bill making appropriations for the naval establishment for the year ending June 30.1851. Mr. Venable Mr. Phelps and Mr. Greene several-, ly advocated reforms in tho Navy, opposing the mail steamers at present in existense as well as those con templated, including the “Ebony Line," as they de signated that proposed by Mr. Stanton, of Tennessee to Africa and the Southern part of Europe. The Jennt Lind Furore. The furore created by the triumphs of the Swedish Songstress, has not a- bated, but is said to bo on the increase in New York, while the people ot Philadelphia, Boston and Balti more, arc manifesting tho greatest impatience for her appearance in those cities. It was given out that she was to sing next In Baltimore, but the latest advices state that she will go to Boston. The net proceeds of her third concert amounted to upwards of $27,000. Nearly all the tickets for the Fourth and Fifth concerts have been bought. The Ex press soys;—A company of some four hundred from Astoria, Flushing and other places in that neighbor hood, engaged a steamboat expressly for tne purpose of coming to the Fourth concert. A special train comes from and returns to Newark, on the nighta of Jenny's singing. The Staten Islanders charter a boat, on those evenings, for the pleasure of hearing the wonder. No better evidence is needed of Jennv’s strength of mind and nobleness of heart, than the fact that a- midst all this tempest of popularity, and adulaton, she preserves the modest demeanor and simplicity of life and character which have distinguished her throughout her career. The Turkish Ambassador. Amin Bey the Tur kish Ambassador has arrived at Washington city. Tao State Department has asked for an ap iropria- tion of $5,000 to cover the expenses of the Turkish Envoy, after the fashion ot the Orientals. The New-York Day-Book says that his Oriental Excellency had a grand time of it on Monday last at the Governor’s Room In New York “having kissed more pretty women in the space of an hour than he had ever seen before in the whole course of his life. This he honestly confessed and inquired very curi ously to whom they all belonged. On being informed that they were the wivc-s of the sovereign people, he smacked his lips and said he had no idea that any sovereign on earth had so magnificent a harem. His excellency (much to his taste be it spoken) turned up his nose with contempt nt the men crea tures, striding along in their uncomfortable coats and trowsera. At first he took them alitor criminals, and supposed that they were thus caparisoned as a species of penitential torture. The women, how ever, were fixed up just about to please him. It is true heblushed and stammered considerably at first, when the pretty ones came flocking in upon him and held up their rosy faces, (minus the yaskmack,) to be kissed. But he voYy soon got used to it, and seemed to enjoy the sport with the keenest zest." The Day- Book is sometimes very happy in its fancy sketches. tuMih The Antl-Hnvcry AgRatlon to'he C'ontln* ued. Henrico, tho free soil correspondent of the Phila delphia Bulletin, speaking of the new abolition lriov’e- meAt in the denote says : This morning, while tho puinn of rejoicing is still heard throughout the land, Mr. Chase, abetted by his great leader, Mr. Seward, coolly asked the Senate to take up and consider a bill for the abolition of slavery iu tho Territories, thereby confirming areCcnt prophecy, that the serpent, “though scotched, is not dead, but lives again.’’ His proposition was met by an indignant r. buke—so unanimously indignant, that, like a criminal discovered in the act, be begged per mission to withdraw tbe bill. But we foresee in this movement, what the country were warned of by Mr. Seward. “We may be detested," he ssid, “upon sec- (injury measure 1 '—alluding to the Free doll proviso, hs applicable to the Territories, “but you invito us by this uct to another aud graver contest—a contest be tween slavery and liberty in tho States themselves." Therefore Mr. Chase's motion was the opening fea ture of this new struggle, it was the offspring of a conlition, and it will henceforth become the rallying puint for a renewal ot their fanatical uggression. Mr. Hale, who has ulso been watching his opportunity, to signalize liiin-ell by afresh manifestation of his instincts, proposed to send Mr. Pratt’s bill, relative to tile abduction of slaves train the District, to the Committee on Territories, with instructions to re port a ciuusc abolishing the institution here: but open a cull for tile yeas and nays, he was supported only by nine Senators. The above paragraph coming from one who has no motive in misrepresenting the intentions of his abo lition friends, and who only disapproves their course on grounds of present pulley, is pregnant with mo mentous truth. Tbe enemies of the South have in deed been invited to “another and a graver con test," not so much by the opposition of tho South to tho application oi the Wil.mot Proviso in form, as by her tacit sumbssiou to its, principles in effect. ■The late victory over the South in her protracted Contest for her territorial rights, gained iij part by Southern votes, and defended by southern presses, has had the effect to encourage the fanatical spirit of aggression which actuates thosedesperute politici ans of tho Free States wlio have nothing to lose but all to gain by the continued agitation of the Slavery ques tion. We doubt not that many patriotic men of the North hoped that the recent action of Congress, by which so iurgo u concession was made by the Slavery interests to the Anti-Slavery faction, would give at least a temporary peace to the country, and we know that many at the South believed that this would be the efl'ect of the surrender which we had made. But too soon have they been disappointed. -‘Th e ser pent though scotched is not dead." Abolitionism is not satisfied and it is to be feared will not be satisfied with anything shot t of the utter prostration of the South and her institutions. Already bus it advanced its standard in the Senate, and its ranks are as full or fuller tu day, and the demands of its leuders more arrogant and outrageous than they were at the begin- ning of the present memorable session. The Abolition party in Congress, as it must in future be termeded having no longer to contend for free suil in the territories now occupies vantage ground. It is in a position to grow iu strength as new free states come into the Union, while the South, cut off as she is from all participation in the new territories, must remain as she is, or duily grow weaker by her own divisions, and the discriminating federal legis lation against her. The abolition ranks are open to tho renegades from ail parties, in the Northern States, thousands of ambitious, disappointed men will imi tate the example of the Van Buriens, and the party which entertains one principle in common, with nil parties, will continue to strengthen with every defec tion iu the ranks of the Whigs or Democrats It is easy to foresee that such a purty having in its favor tbepopular sympathy and fanatical prejudices of the people must ultimately gain the ascendency over all others, and sooner or later bo ill a position to accom plish the great abject for which it contends. We may disugise the fact if wt: can, but certain it is the march of this party has been an uninterrupted ad vance from its first organization. It has steadily grown in strength, even when its influence was des pised, and will grow more rapidly, now that it has achieved such signal triumphs for Us principles.— When Mr. Chase some ten days ego, introduced his proposition to ubolish slavery in the District of Co. lumbia, it received but four votes; when a week after, a similar measure was proposed by Mr. Hale, it received nine votes, nearly one third of the N orthern Sena tors. At this rate it will require but a short time to carry the measure. The conflict is nut ended—but the outpostshaving been tnken by the enemy they are preparing to at tack the citadel. Is it nut time then thqt we should prepare for the final struggle ? Is it not proper that we should cease contending among ourselves and unite for the common defence? By union and con cert of action, we may, if we cannot repair the past, protect ourselves from greater evils which threaten us in the future. The only hope for the Uuion of tlie States is in the Union of the South. President Fillmcre has offered the office o f Treasurer of tho United States to Gov. Vance, of Ohio. Charge to Austria.—It is stated that Mr. McCur dy, of Ct., has received the nomination of Charge to Austria,rendered vacant by tho rejection of Col- Webb.

Correspondence of ikt Daily Morning News. New-York, Sept. 19, 1850. Tho unhappy controversy between Forest and his with, is again before the public ; and this time the ta bles have.been turned, as you will have seen—Mrs. f. being now tho eliminator. The matter was before tlie Supreme Court yesterday, and Mr. F. chutes sav. agely at the restraints upou him, and seeks him to have tho writ of ne exeat abrogated, aud to bo dis charged from his bill. I don't think he will beoblig. ed in this matter, unless tho court has exceeded its authority; and for my own part, I hail rather that sucli power was invested iu it. However, I am not prepared to say, that it is not right—tho lilw' should protect the weak; and in this case particularly, pre vent the respondent from being burne down by tho power or wealth of her husbund. Mrs. F's. bill for divorce has excited greut surprise here,for witli all Iris faults, veiy lew were disposdtocliargohlm with sucli gross immorality, us is there placed to his account. Were the names of the females published, I think the surprise would be still greater; and when they appear, which they must on the trial, there will bo a terrible outcry. Tlie deceased actress referred to, did not beur an unblemished reputation, ultliougb I never beard of any act having been brought home to her, and as eho died, the wife of a manager of a southern theatre, it had been better if her memory were suffered to rest, her and .ins and follies buried iu the grave with her. John Van Buren aud John T. Brady, appeared on the part of Mr. Forest in court yester- duy, and Charles O’Connor for Mrs. F. No decision has yet been given. _ Another mystery has been developed in the Drury Torpedo Case. The trial was called on this murniu", butlol Warner, to whom tho Torpedo was sent, was nonest inventus-he bus not been seen since lhursday last, and whether be bus been put out of tlie way, or is so voluntarily, is not known. A great Burhutn meeting wusgot up at old Tammany ou Monday night, ostensibly for the purpose ot ex pressing sympathy for .Smith O’Brien ; but in fact, u muticBvre t.i catch tlie Irish vote at the coming elec tions, Greely presided, but Mike Walsh aud others were present, who saw through the nflair, aud entire ly a,/oilt it. Who the whigs ure ubout to nominate lor olliee i - o not know it is rumored however, that J.H. Raymond ot tlie Couri'-r and Enquirer, member of the late tjtute Legislature, will run l'ur Congress. Editors ure decidedly looking up. Greely, they 0 say, wants to be Senator, but will bo satisfied with the Mayoralty. I wish he may get either of them. John Juy, the lawyer, has received the $10,000 from Jenny Lind ior distribution, and has commenced the churitable work. Tlie concert last night was at tended, I should think, by ov.er eight thousand per sons. The immense suloon presented a magnificent and astonishing uppuurance. it was worth a dollar only to view tlie interior, and cheap at that. That Swedish song isall tbe rage, and the “hurrah," tbe call ot the herdsman to the cows, is in every boy’s mouth. 1 am sorry that Savannah is not large enough to suit Barnura’spurpo e,so that you might listen to this woman’s wondro s powers—she did such wonders lust night thut 1 was electrified. Your musical read' era will know whereabouts F. in alt is; nnd the difficul ty in reaching it; but iu "Non Poventar," she soared up to it witli comparative ease, and gave it clear and with perfect distinctness several times. She sung the piece us it was originally written, which I believe lew, if any, vocalists linvt yet dene. The rumor of anothei invasion of Cuba, is cir culated, but I enn barfly credit it, indeed if weie the case, I should tiink the less said about it the better. Probably it is ail bosh. Amin Bey has gone to Washington, and Sir Henry Buiwer lias followed him, and Lord and lady Elgin, have returned to Canada,so Jenny has the field to her self once more. POSTSCRIPT. Proclamation of the Governor of Georgia! GEORGIA. GEORGE W. TOWNS, Govcnor of said State, To the Electors thereof—Greeting: Having been oliieiaily informed, that Uic Congress of tne Lulled States bus admitted California iut i the Union oi the States id tlie Cunfcdcriicy, upuu equal terms Witli tlie original Stale-., u duty devolves upon me, ill tbe perioi malice ot widen, i Hindi trespass up on the public but briefly. Au unfeigned deference for public opinion, and tlie profound regard 1 entertain for tlie wisdom, firmness und patriotism of my fellow citizens of Georgia, will not justify me, in a paper of this character, in repeating my known and unchanged opinions us to tlie duty of the South in repelling Free-soil encroach ment, and arresting, by nil proper means, usurpation by Congress. Wliatever is compatible with the nonor and obliga tions of tlie People of this Sute tu tbe country, its laws, and its institutions, 1 doubt not, will receive their wurm support. In un hour of danger—when your institutions are in jeopardy—your feelings wantonly outraged your soeiul organization derided, your honor deeply wounded und tne Federal Constitution violuted by a series ot aggressive measures, all tending to tlie con summation of one object, tlie abolition of slavery— when your equal rigut to occupy and enjoy the com mon territory of all, bus been denied you, in tho solemn form of law, under pretences the most shal low, it well becomes you to assemble, to deliberate, und counsel together for your mutual preservation ami safely. Whatever course the extraordinary events by which we are encompassed, will demand or justify, must be left, us u should be, to tlie patriotism, firm ness, mid prudence of tlie people themselves. Upou tuem devolves the duty ot redressing pres, nt wrongs und prov.ding other safeguards, for tuturc seeurfiy. Neither the une nor tlio other ot which, however, will ever be effectually accomplished, until, by pa triotic efforts, perfect narmony und concord ot feel ing are restored, aud confidence aud concert of ac tion produced among tue peopl r of the South. ill view, therefore, of the atrocious i'rue-soil 6enti mCut and policy, uot pm rely ot the non slaveholding States, hut ot the Government—of the imminent per- il to which the institution ol slavery is reilueed by the uct of Cun'gtess admitting the State of California in to the Unpin, with a Constitution containing the prin ciple of tue Wilmot proviso, in defiance oi our warn ing and earnest remonstrance—in view of the deplo rable fact thut sumo diversity of opinion exists in some of the Southern States us to the proper mode ot redressing tbe wrongs, and averting tile dangers which all must see und feel, let me, fellow-citizens, earnestly entreat you to cultivate for each other u deep anil abiding sentiment of fraternal regard aud confidence,aud upprouch tlie tusk,from which there is no escape, of deciding upon your duly to Geurgia und tlie country, wiiu a linn step, but not without calm, deliberate, und patient investigation, consulting ueitoer fears or hungers ou tbe oneuaifd, nor permit ting yourselves, from exusperuted feelings -.1 wrung on the other, to be rashly urged to extreme measures which huve uot received the -lull sanction of your judgment. Then 1 shall net despair of seeing the whole ritate, as one man, proposing nothing beyond what the emergency may demand, or fulling tu per form whatever patriotism, honor und right, may re quire at your bauds. The General Assembly of this Slate, by an act ap proved 8th February i»50, having required me, up on the happening of certain events, one of which is theudmissiou »f California us a Slate into the Union, to issue a proclamation, oi del ing an election to be held iu eacn and every county for Delegates to a Con vention of tlie people of tlm State, to take into con sideration such measures us comport witlqthe extra ordinary posture of our relations to our* co-States, and to decide upon wont steps are necessary and proper to be tukeu compatible with our honor and constitutional obligation.-, as well us more eflcctually to secure our rights of property in slaves, und to ar rest all aggressions, by one -cutinu of tbe Union, up- Everv bodv is drinlsinr itarnia,, A- n . . on tne tree enjoyment of the Constitutional rights ot r.very nody is nnnkinf Barclay A Perkins’ porter the other, 11U d lastly to preserve inviolate the equal- *nvunnnli Mtn-h... —--_T3 CO 1/l'ON.— 1 There was a goodTo> yesterday, and the sales amounted t"" d fl >”- . f 1 r C« following prices; 8 bMa. ,agftS 1 210 at Id; ID at 13*; 48 at 13*; and 4'** Prices unchanged. * nu 4 «*t laj ^jjL Savammli Kxnoru I Per ship Columbia, for New' Ym? “I 1 *' 2-1 land cotton, 4 do Sea Island, 3fi C'.l blithers, 17 hales mdze, 12 pkgs mdze! £^4 b(J ? er echr GIcn 'lew, for New York-so^J AUGUSTA, Sept, 18.—CoUoiT-rn~ 1 mg to-day was limited, and the'sales' however, brought full prices. 8 ‘‘Sht. 1"™ 51)ipyingiJntdU^ft^ PORT OF BAVAN^Tlg^ 1’ O It T C A I.

A little child was killed yesterday through the care lessness of an apothecary, who sold strychnine in stead of some harmless medicine prescribed by the docter. I dont hear that tbe fellow is arrested, nor indeed, do we often hear of such eases of manslaugh ter being punished: A few such fellows should be sent to tlie State prison for an example. The case ol Suydara, Sego & Co., has been refer- ed to a legal gentleman, who will take testimony, on the charge ot having fraudulently made away with their property. It will then be sent to the Judge for his decision. It is generally believed that the char is unfounded. 1 The poor nnd middling class of people are looking lorward to the next winter with much apprehension, in consequence of the great rise in the price ot coal, which has gone up already from $4,75 a ton to $7, and it is expected will reach $10. The late freshets stopped the msans of transmitting it by water, and the supply therefore is very limited. The coal merchants are making a fine tiling out of it. Whnt tbe poor are to do during the mcloment|season' God knows I—unless the rich extend charity, which they are not very apt to do. Nows is scarce to day. CHARLEMAC.

Barclay and Perkins. The event supplies a stout argument against the teetotallers, inasmuch as it demonstrates the tendency of porter to produce a high moral tone.
