In tow of the steamer Charleston.
The ship made some water while ashore, but does
not leak since she has floated. The Atlanta is a new
ship, just built In Newburyport, (Mass.,) and is in
eve.ry respect, a first c'ass freighting ship. She will
carry about 3000 bales cotton.

GanNviLLE'a Georgia and Carolina Alma
nac. We have received from the publishers,
Messrs. Jos. A. Carrie & o,. of Augusca, a copy
of their Almanac for the year 1651. This publica
tion ia too well and favorably known throughout
tbo State to need commendation from us. It is un
questionably the best work of the kind published
in the country, and is peculiarly adapted to the sec
tion for which it is Cidculatou. Besides the usual
calundar and other tables, it coutains much valuuble
statistical matter and an excellent engraved map of
Georgia.
Tactic* of the Republican,
The Republican, witu its usual fairness, persists
in its efforts to misrepresent the p isition of the
Morning Hews. By garbled extracts Irom uur ar-
ticloe, the editor attempts to porvert our meaning,
and to create prejudice against us in the minds ol his
readers. We might cite more than one instance in
which we haveoecu unfairly quoted by the lhpubli
can with this viuw, but one will answer our present
purpose.
in bis paper of Saturday last, a part of a paragraph
is taken from our article uu the Fugitive Slave Bill, uud
the District Slave Trade Bill, in which we said the
Fugitive Slave Bill, passed as 't had been, chiefly by
Southern votes, was "a mockery und an insult to toe
South." The editor of the Republican, in his briel
comments on our remark, endeavors to create the
impression that We are opposed to t' e Fugitive Sluve
Bill, and consequently disapprove the course of the
Suuthern Senators, and members of the Home who
voted for it. Our tirticle as a whole, admits of no
such inference, nor do wo believe thutour readers so
understood it. Our remarks were intended to apply
1 to the manner In which the bill had been passed, aud
net to the bill Itself, for which we would have voted-
though we wohld have preferred to have had certaiu
amendments. Tho refusal of a large majority of
the Northern! members to vote farlhe hill (it huvitig
received ouly 29 of the HO Nortleru votes in the
House,) was calculated to destroy Us moral force, and
to encourr.ge tho violation of its provisions by the
people of those States where It was designed to ap
ply. As it was put forth as a compromise measure
—us the only concession from tho North, in return
for the immen se sacrifices made by the Sonth, it was
due to their own professions as well as to the feelings of
tlie Southern people, that it should have been endors
ed by at lrast a majority of the Northern vote. Such a
vote would have been received by the South as a
pledge of the good faith of the North. The Northern
vote on the measure, we repeat, can bo regarded in no
other light than an an insult to the South, as it stamps
the reprobation of the Northern people upon our in
stitutions, which the bill was framed to protect.
The new Cuban Movement. The rumor of a
new expedition against Cuba derives some addition
al force from the fact that the Washington Republic
copies an article from the Courier des Etats Unis, of
the 37th, which asserts that the reports of anew ex-
peditiu against Cuba have assumed 6Uch a degree of
consistency that, unfortunately, itis no longer possi
ble to regurd them as a mere fanciful rumor. The
Courier says that preparations are going ou secretly
with tho greatest activity, sitice it is desired to act at
oik-0 before tho reinforcements expected from Eu
rope shall have placed the island in a too formidable
state of defence, and more especially before tho or
gaiiuatiots of a line of steamers between t'adiz and
liuvanna shall have put Spain within a few days
reach of her colony.
General Chaplin. Hi* Delivery up to Maryland
4re. A writ of habeas corpus was, on Wednesday,
issued by his Honor Judge Crouch, Chief Justice of
the Circuit Court for the District of Columbia, on
too application nf the counsel of this persou, and he
was on Thursduy morning brought betore Judge C„
who required bail in the amount of 88,000 for his ap
pearance at the fall terra of the Criminal Court.
lie waa defended in be Washington Couit by sev
eral able lawyers, among the rest Asa Childs, Esq.,
of New York who is understood to have been sent tn
Washington by certain triends of tho prisonor. The
Republic says:
A bond for the requisite amount of bail being en
tered into jointly and several y, by General Chaplin,
David A. Hall, Selby Parker, uml William Blanchard,
the first-named wa« discharged from the custody of
tueja.lor of Washington county, hut bold upon a
warrant issued by virtue of the requisition of tire
Governor of Maryland, in compliance with which he
was in the afternoon conveyed to Rock villa by offi-
cersGoddard and Handy. We understand thatJ.
Brewer, is his cuuusel at the latter place ; and that,
if admitted to bail there, a sufficient sum of money
will be deposited to secure sucli persons us will unite
iu giving u bond for his appearance tor trial.
Enlargement op the Capitol. Congress has
determined to make extensive additions and altera
tions in the Capitol at Washington, for which an up
propriatlon of 8200,000 has been made.
The plan will beau extension of u wing north ami
another south. A Senate chamber whicu will afford
an opportunity to the public to attend tire debates of
that body, has long been desired.
A Washington letter says the government will un
dertake no new buildings at present, except the im
provement of the Capitol, und the partial extension
of the patent office. In the mean time, the publie ar
chives are, for the most parL very insecure, aud the
only fire-proof edifice in the city is uot only nut own
ed, though occupied, by the government, but may at
any tifae be converted to private purposes, imd the
government be compelled to look up rat holes for
their officers and arehivw.
The Convention.
The Republican oi yesterday, commenting upon the
propr.ed convention, (the Governor's call for which
we published in The News yesterday morning, ••ex.
clusively," as tho editor would say) remarks:—
We shall not stop this morning to discuss tho pro
priety of tlie law by which it lias been called, or tho
magnitude of the interests which are to be affected
by its deliberations. We rimpiy desire to ask the'
voters of Georgia, the men who mnhe the State, when
they learn that they have been called upon to send up
delegates to tile seat of Government, to think and to
think calmy upon the issued presented. We desire
to ask them to strip themselves of all prejudice, of
all passion, and to enquire of themselves—for what
has this convention been called 1
It is much to be desired that the people ol Georgia
may think calmly and seriously of tno matter, and
think fur themselves, unbiased by the sophisms and
specious appeals and arguments of deuingouues and
factl.mists. We hope they will ponder well, what tho
convention is called for—that they will consider well
the outrages, and wrongs that have been perpetrated
against their rights, and interests—and that they will
finally adopt such wise, and proper measures as will
give, if not redress for the pa‘t, at least security and
protection for tha luturo. Further on in the Editor's
article, he says:
California lias been admitted Into tlie Union by a
law ot the National I-egislHture, She Is now in tho
Union, much to the regret we admit, of the great body
of the Southern people: but still rile is in it a» a State,
and as such is entitled to ail the rights and privi
leges which belong to Virginia or New York
Then follow* a train of reasoning to show Unit as
toe wrong has beeu ntlioted u must, like the mon
key’s Lute, be endured because it can’t be cured
Tlie substance of the editor's urticlc is tlt.it Georgia

Southern and Northern Manufactories.
The Tuscaloosa Manufacturing Co., located at
Scottsville, Ala., have just declared u dividend of 10
per cent as the earnings for the past year. U
it manufactories prosper after this fashion at the
South, at a time when they are said to be languishing
at the North, would it not be good policy lor North-
eru manufacturers,as we suggested a day or too since
to invest their capital here! They invest capital in
trade and commerce at the South, and why not in
manuiacturing? We published « n article from the
N. Y. hip,ass a lew days since in which it was said
that Eastern m mufacturera ha t contemplation a
scheme tor the establishment of extensive Cotton
Factories in I reland, where they hoped to make larger
prohts than they can at the North, by employing the
pauper labor oi that unhappy and downtrodden coun-
try. Tho South ia uot farther away than Ireland, and
we can see no reason why similar advantages here
would not invite the investment oi Northern cap-
ital among us. We believe it has already done so-
that Northern capital is now more profitably employ-
cd in manuiacturing here than it could be at home
and that the day is uot distant when millions of dol
lars will ho withdrawn from the business in the Nor
thern and Eastern states to be- invested in Georgia.
Our opinion is not based upon the employment oi
slave labor; we doubt whether it will ever be exten
sively employed in manufacturing; but we consi
der that there ar-- other advantages posressed by the
South over the North us u manuiacturing country
that cannot fail to bring about the result of which
we speak. Speed the day say we.
By the answer to Mr. Greene's resolution
in reference to the cost and profits of Ocean steam
ers which was sent to Congress ou Wednesday last,
it appears that there was advanced to Collins’ li e 0 f
Atlantic steamers, in 1848 and '49, $192,500 ; 1849 and
'50, 8125,COil. Total to Collius’ line 6317,500. To Sloo
& Law s line oi C-astwise, and Chagres steamers
two in number—1848 and ’49, 290,000; to Howland St
Aspimvall's i’acilic steamers,three in number, 1818 and
'49 8199,000. Total udvunces to seven steamers,
6808 500. There have been paid to the Pacific line of
steamers, 8109,173 tor mail service, and they have re
turned the amount of advances. Collins’ line have
returned a part of what was contributed to tho con
struction oi those vessels, out of the compensation''
stipulated in the contract under which they were
built.
Congrenaioni'l Proceedings.
Mr. Hamlin moved that the Senate take up the
bill to secure reciprocal free trade with Canada,
which was rejected, 14 only voting in the affirma
tive.
Mr. Davis, of Mass., submitted a resolution, which
was adopted, requesting the Secretary of the Treasu
ry to report what have been the measures adopted
to prevent fraud upun the revenue, since the passage
of the act of 1846, and what has been the result.
The bill to establish Post roads in the United States
’wastaken up. Numerous amendments were made,
and the bill passed.
The bill to extend the laws and judiciary system
of the United States to California, was then taken up,
and finally passed.
The bill establishing collection districts in Califor
nia, was taken up, and finally passed to a third read
ing.
House op Representatives. The House re
sumed tlie consideration of the naval appropriation
bill.
Mr. Ewing made a very able speech in favor of
continuing and expanding the foreign steam mail
service. He viewed it as the only means by which
the U. States could keep peace with England and
France, who were expanding that service with the
view to strengthen their military marine iu case of
necessity.
Severut members followed, in favor of and against
the present naval system, and the toreign nuval ser
vice.
Mr. Morse made some remarks in defence of the
tiavy and against any reduction at tlie present time.
He rather saw a necessity fur an increase.
Mr. Kautmun introduced a proposition to incor
porate, by th- President, t>y aud with the advice und
consent of the Stnute, the surviving officers of the
Texas Navy into the Navy oi the Uuiteddtutes.
Alter debate, the proposition was finally rejected
by u vote of 61 iu the affirmative tu 71 iu the nega
tive.
The House adjourned.
Mrs. Miller.—The Niagara Mystery.-A letter from
Detriot to the Vermont Family Gazette, gives the fol
lowing particulars of the return of Mrs. Miller, und
tier account of her absence, which will doubtless lead
to a full explanation of the mystery:
Mrs. Miller lias returned to her friends in this city.
She states that it was her intention when she left tile
hotel ut Niagara, to have thrown herself off’ the bridge
which crosses over to Gent Island, just above the cut-
uruct; but, on arriving at the place, she had not the
courage to do it—-6tie was a coward on instinct."
She had. previous to leaving the house, put her chil
dren to sleep, writ en letters to her parents, and one
to the landlord, stating her intention, and requesting
them to he kind to her babes; she had also cut. off her
curls, aud left them with the letters, in a conspicu
ous place on tile table.
From that time to the present nothing positive lias
been heard from her. Her father, however spent
several mt -nths iu u fruitless search. Returning in
June, or July, he died of a brokeen heart. Not long
since, a Drother of hi rs died at -Saratoga. His deuih,
too, was undoubtedly accelerated by tlie same cause.
Learning the condition of her fain ly, I believe she
intimated to them, by letter, where she could be
found, and her willingness to return
A.cord.ngly a Irieudot the family went after her,
last week, uud hrougut her home to mourn with her
widowed mother over tue ruin she has caused. Her
children are with their father Major Miller, some
where ut tlie South. She states, und 1 believe itis
generally understood hire, that domestic difficulties
drove her to the rash a;t of leaving her children ana
destroying herself, and that after shuddering on the
brink of tout awful gu'f. she changed her plan, uud
buried herself in n cokvi nt or nunnery near Balti
more. Bite positively denies having been in compa
ny with any gentleman, but found her way to the
monastery alone, and which she left as pure as elie
entered. Atunymteshe is nnw with her mother,
who has received her with open arms.
The Uniontown (Pa) Whig, of the 17lli inst. says
thnt Major Miller, the husband of Mrs. Miller, died
nt the residence of Dr. Potter on the Thursday pre
vious, and that he was mtered with milttary honors,
nt that place, on tlie following day. Tims the hus
band, father and brother of the lady have all died
since her strange di fapperun
_ OP Tile cost of tlie Jenny Lind Hall in New
York, exclusive of the ground on which it stands,
will be $125,000. The saloon is 150 by 100 (ret, and
will seat live thousand persons. There are no pillars
to support the coiling, nor will there be any chande
liers to obstruct the view of tlie stage. The arrange
ments tor lighting' the bull ure on a novel aud mag
nificent scale. Around the cornice under the ceiling,
a gas pipe will lie led, perforated every eight inches
for a triple jet of clear flame. The stage will be light
ed by five eclendid chandeliers, of Bohemian crystal
at a cost of86000. Around tne front ot the galleries
there will be a balustrade in white enamel and gold,
below which will run a row of double brarket lights!
with glass globes, making 800 lights iu all.
Texas Satisfied. The Wa-liington Union, of
Friday last learns thut the people of Texas will re
ceive the propositions of Congress almost with ac
clamation.
Land in Oregon. The bill to grant fan publie
lauds of Oregon to nctual settlers, which has passed
the Senate provides fur the donation of 320 acres to
each family, native or foreign, whether naturalized
or not, Provided, of course, that he does not come
tiom the sluve States ol the Union with Lis property.
The Heuoine of the Van Ness Case. We
see it stated Mrs. Connor, who some years ago luid
claim to tne immense property ol lien. Van Nees,
of Washington city, on the tdledccd ground of her
being his widow, has recently come into the posses
sion of about $500,000, left to her by a distant rel
ative in New Orleans.
Wholesale destruction of s avers—Captain
Jones ol the American Steamer at Hamilton Bermuda,
on inst reports;—
The British Steamer "Cromornnt," Surveying Ves
sel on the Brazilian Station, havingJearntthat a Depot
for fitting out Slavers existed in the vicinity ol his
operations, made search und found it up one of the
Rivers or Bays, at a place called Pnruntwnihibo and
then occupied by one Ship, one Barque, and two
Brigs—tlie latter ot which had apparently just landed
her cargo. The Cormorant nmde fast to the four
vessels und towed them out side of the Harbour,
sank one. burnt two. nnd sent the other to St. Helena
While performing this duty she was subjected to a
severe fire frr m the Fort which guarded tlie Harbor
and report says limi two or three men killed; s!„-
returned and attacked the Fort and razed it to the
ground.
After this news lmd arrived at Rio Janeiro the pop
ulace became much exasperated nnd made an attack
ou some British Naval Officers then on shore there,
and also on the Foreigners generally, mid itis said,
some of tho latter w ere killed. The Officers were
compelled to take retuge in n Hotel, whence they
were conducted tu tliier boats by an armdn police, in
order to protect them from the violence ot the mob

UuiDEn cf Childi en anu Suicide. A raos*
lamentable tiagedy occurred on Sunday, at Java,
N.Y. The wife of Mr. Curaon Bryant, a resperta-
ble citizen, after cutting the throats of her two
youngest children, (one three years, the other six
months old,) cut her owu throat with a razor, and
all were found, soon after, side by side, aud dead.
No satisfactory cause for committing the futal deed
is yet known.
The first Commercial Nation. The Loudon
correspondent of the New York Herald, states that
the commercial tonage of the United States is 20 000
tons more than that of England, the f .finer being 3,.
150,000 tons, und the latter 3,130.000 tons. If this be
true, we are of course the first commercial nation iu
the world.
Break-bone Fever. The prevalence of this
epidemic in Charleston.says the Temperance Banner,
has indeed been extraordinary. It is stated on tlie
best authority that not more than one person in ten of
the entire population has escaped sickness. At one
time there were 12000 cases reported as existing in
the city. His supposed to bo the effect of the ex

A 8iu rf Scene,
A correspondent of the .Springfield (Mass.) Repub
lican. ut Coney Island, gives the following killing in
cident of surf bathing:
During the pussage down the bay 1 had cuueht sev-
erid glances of a familiar female face. I knew I lia.l

I was 011 it, und off'for a bath. The lady, for the time,
was iorgotten, and issuing front the bath house in
my rough bathing-dress, I plunged into the breakers.
I had been frolicking some time, laying my hand on
the "ocean’s nuime." und the ocean laying his hand
on mine, when 1 saw two orthree bathers edging up
towards mu between the swells. There was'a lady
evidently in ad vunee. Her company apparently for
got her 111 last, and still she approached me. I went
farther out. She followed, and I lound she was de
termined to speak tome. 1 knew who she was. of

man down, but sticking her head out of the water
she gHve one Ecreaui. and that brought me. 1 was

Nkw Yoxk, Sept. 20, 1850.
There is little ofstrlklngiinportance occurring here
just nt present—the tilt me of conversation, and ad
miration. in still Jenny Lind, and every concert she
gives, uppears to increase the excitement, and the
dcsite to hear her. Strange to say, the first concert
yielded less returns tbuu either of tile subsequent
ones, and yesterday even the promenade tickets
were sold at a premium of cent per cent. Hereafter,
however, the number of these is to be vety limited,
and they are uot to be sold, until 8 o'clock 011 the
evening ot the concert, at the gate of Castle Garden.
The gross proceeds ut tho concert ou Tuesday, are
said to have exceeded $27,0U0; and if so, the one lust
night must have realized considerably more. Jenuy

giving two concerts there w.il return to this city;

A funny case is under investigation at tlie Custom

I understand that there is really some foundation’
