Feeling in MHalaalppl.
Jacason, Sept. II, I860.
During my short absence from Mlsszisglppt, I - Hud
the feeling of hatred, or want of confidence in the
North, has increased with fearful rapidity. It has
now DOcorne popular to say that' no confidence what
ever cun be placed in the Northern men," and tlias
"they are all encmios to the South." In this state of
feeling, it is an much an a man's popularity or stand
ing in worth to putn word in edgeways in behalf ol
majority of the Northern people, as such interposi-
thetion is treated ascquivalent tofree-soiliem or aboli
tionism I Like all sectional exc teinent. the discus
sions are necessarily ex parte, an all who do not go tliu
whole bog with tlie ultralets, (whoalways lend when
the, passions are tip,) arc considered "suhmission-
ists I" Nothing connected with the matter in argued
upon its merits, but every thing is classified ns eith-r
Northern or Southern, aud wo to the unfortunate
wight whose doubts militate against the unerring
rucutudelof every argument however absurd, which
favors the highest preten tions of tho South I Tne
»nmA, of course, is the caao with the Northern pa
triots of the free soil school, who dub nil as “dough
faces” who prefer the Union to ascendency of their
notions, which would certainly relinquish it. Thus
it is, that honest men in both sections, opposed to
uUrniem must derive ways and mentis to bring about
the reign of conservative measures and opinions, or
o Jr noble fabric of government will bo raxed to its
foundations, and the hopes of the world blasted for
ages. Is it not too bad that the “infernals" ut both
ends of the Union should thus, as it were, hold the
destanies in their hands as the controlling elements
in Congress I They are now talking in those papers
which are urging on Texs, tor assume the character
of Judge and jury in her own case, ol enacting laws,
or adopting voluntary measures, to exclude Yankees
from the South, or make them undergo a probation
of 24 years before th 'y are entitled to exercise tho
rights of citizenship I Some in private, go further,
and talk of sending them out of the state or ex
cluding them altogether, although some of the
greatest fomenters ot this sectional strife, (Gov. Quit-
man. for instance,) arc themselves Northern men by
birth and education I
Resolutions were adopted in this country, the other
day, against 'he purchase of goods of Northern men,
ortho employment of Northern teachers. This is
but the beglnph.g of the end,and,if it should progress
to a final pov-animation, those lYagmatic fanatics
conduct has involved their whose fellow citizens in
the disgrace of their acts, will be alone to blame for
tho fatal consequences. Is it not important, then, that
the same portion of your sectiun should unite to
muzzle these canting fntermeddlers, whose quixotic
exploits in behalf of the negroes have brought all
this about ? Should not both the great parties unite,
where thpy are nearly equally divided, to elect a
united ticket aud thereby dispense with the third, or
diabolical party, who have so held the balance of pow
er, as to kick Uie beam in favor of disunion i
Unless a stop be put to the negro-stealing and negro
protecting philanthropists, hundreds id' good men,
who now look upun disunion us the greatest id' ca
lamities, will be broughtto look upon a Union with
such faithless men us a greater, aud be driven of ne
cessity into its advocacy. Many now say, " 1 am op
posed to divorce—-it is a burning shame and disgrace
—but it is a still greater to live in a state of eternal
turmoil with a wife, between whom and her better
half, there exists no natural affection or sympathy—
If there exists a natural repugnance between the
parties which forbid penceuble and harmonious co :
operation and action, why attempt to perpetuate the
uuion between such discordant elements ¥’ Such is
the sort of reasoning now common among a class of
men who abhor disunion; but have lost their patience
at seeing the two great parties of the North swayed
against reason, common sense and justice by a small,
but Well organized antislavory party.
A stop must be put to these things, ortho Nulli-
flers will triumph over the patriotism of the North.
Every negro stolen, every fugitive refused to be
given up, and every Buffalo ana Cazenovia conven
tion, strengthens and “gives aid aud comfort" to tlie
Southern disciples of the Rhett school, and paralyzes
in the same ratio the exertions of those who would
if needs be, lay down their lives to save the Constitu
tion and the Union. A Whig.

Thurailny Morning. September gff,1830.
Largest Circulation in the City I!
Accidknt.— Yesterdny morning about 11 o'clock,
a serious accident occurred on board the brig Susan,
lying near tho Exchange wharf, which it is fenred
will prove fatal to the individual who received the
injury. Mr. William Quinlv, one of the work
men engaged in taking tlie engine “Kentucky” from
the brig Susan, was under the same, arranging
somo of tlie timber, when tho engine suddenly slew-
ed round, and his head was caught between the
blocks, fracturing his scull very severely. Mr. Quin-
lv has duly been married about three weeks. He
was a steady and industrious man.
New CLoTniNO STonE. It will be seen by the
card of Mr. A, P. Houston in another column, that
he is about to return to this city with a view toopcu
nn extensive Clothing establishment. 11c announces
a large stock of Clothing, made especially for this
market, under his personal direction.

The brig Oregon. I. C. Bebiiry, Sommerset, Mass,
foundered in Lat. 32° 15' North, 79° 7' West, on tha
17tlt inst.
The Oregon laden with pine timber (from the Mill
of Mr. J. Quantock, her consignee in this city,)
sailed frum Snvunnuh on the 12th inst., for Sommer-
set, Mass. She had fine weather for o few days, but
the crew were daily reduced by sickness, until only
one man ’fore the mast remained on duty. On the
16th she began to leak badly—requiring constaut use
of the pumps. A heavy galesetingin N. N. E. ena
bled us to steer fur Charleston; the gale increasing
in violence, but little sail was kept on the vessel; the
water rising in the hold over 3 feet. At midriight
hasty preparations were made far abandoning tho
brig, as she became unmanageable. At 3 P. M. on
tile 17th, all hands took to the boat, the brig roiling
over on her beam ends almost instantly on the clear
ing of the boat.
After living outuhard gale in the Gulf stream in a
14 feet keel boat, with sickness and suffering we were
rescued frum our perilous situation, on the 18th
inst., by Cnpt. John Williams of brig J. IV. Godfrey,
Boston, whose humane exertions ill our relief are
above all praise.
After burying one of our comrades, Augustus
Newton, a boy, in tho sea, on the 20th we arrived in
St. Marys, Ga., on the 22d inst., with the lifeless re-
maitis of another of our little company, Asa W. Jen-
NEV, whom we intered in the beautilul cemetery of
that town. Three of our men we left very ill at St. Ma
ry's. The distinguished hospitality of John J.Dufoub,
II. Mobiuson aud Hr. Cuiitis, towards our sick
comrades entitles them to a place in our grateful re
membrance. J. C. BEHKKY, Captain.
THOMAS HEMSTEAD, Mnte.
Note. On the morning of the disaster, a full rigg
ed brig, with house ou deck, painted ports, with fiy
on the main, past within haiiimr distance, but paid no
attention to our signals. The brig was steering YV.
S. W., supposed to be bound for Charleston.

The Ckerokees —A letter dated Port Smith, Ailtan
srb Aug.22,,says:
The Indians especially are making rapid advances
by means of institutions of learning. Tha Chero-
keea have two magnificent buildings at Park Hill,
nreoted at the cost of about 840,091) each, intended for
schools, ut which two hundred echolurs may be
boarded and educated at tha expeuae of the nation.
The editor adds—
“The financial condition of that people Is not very
flourishing at present, but it is expected that some ar
rangement will soon be m ide-ennl lingthe government
to carry out its plans respecting these schools. The ap
propriation about to be made by Congress will be m
fulfillment of tlie stipulations of the treaty of 1836,
which gives them seven millions of acres of land,
and five millions of dollars for tho country abandon
ed, and will be paid out to individuals of that nation.
John Ross is at present chief of that nation and at
each election receives a stili higher vote.
A fund of 07,500 supports twenty one free schools,
under the control of a superintendent. The teachers
are equal to any employed in that business, and
text hooks are such as are used in the scnools of the
Arkansas. Each teacher receives a salary of ubuut
forty dollars per. month. Many of the more advene-
ed of their youth attend the semiuaries at Fay
etteville. In tnis state.
The Cherokee alphabet, invented by George Guesa.

as to be taught in a lew lessons, and mnny adults und
others learn it by attending Bunds;,- . Jiobl two or
three times ; after that, all one has to do is to take
up the book and read.”
The Dry Hoods Trade*
New York, Sept 81.
The business in tlw Dry Goods market thus been
comparatively dull throughout the week, especially
in the'Domestic branch, though prices on thcwbole
have been pretty well maintained. There has been con-
aiderable activity in the auction sales, but as the sea
son advances, we notice a slight falling oft in prices. All
descriptions of Cettou fabrics have been inactive ;
tho little inquiry for export previously noticed having
subsided. The finer qualities of bleached and un
bleached Meetings and Shirtings have declined } a Jc.
and the prices are nearly nominal. Printing Cloths
are also dull, and heavy, while prints have been ope
rated in to a fair extent, (principally at auction.) and
for good styles of muddors and steam work, prices
have been tolerably well sustained. Mouslin de
Laines and Cashmeres are an exception to the gen-
ral dullness In other descriptions of domestics, and
large sales have been made at full prices. The sup
ply of nearly every discrintion of Cotton goods, con
tinues good and many styles could not bo replaced at
the present price oftne raw material, the continued
higfi.price of which has led to the partial or total stop
page of nearly thirty cotton mills in various parts of
the country’, but most of them have notbecn classed
among ourlaraest producers. Low cotton flannels are
in demand, while the finer qualities are Inactive though
thastock is light; previous prices are sustained.—
Ginghams are selliug briskly, though a decline has
been submitted to on the Glasgow styles which
are reduc-d to 21}c. Stripes are in a fair de
mand, with sales ‘ to arrive at previous prices.
Osnaburgs and bagging are dull but steaiy.—
Satinets, tweeds anil lew priced cloths, both domes,
tic and foreign, are in good demand and command
good prices. Linseys are firm. A good demand has
5 revelled for shawls, in’ preparation for tlie winter
eraand- Morinoes have declined5nl0 per cent, with
u fair demand and large supply. Woolen goods have
been rather less active, there being a pause between
the termination of the southern demand, and tlie
opening of the north-western demand, which is near
at hand. The city demand from the clothing branch
is steady. The continued demand for clothing
creates a necessity of the renewal of stocks, 'some
descriptions having become reduced. The trade iu
Foreign fabrics has been chiefly through the auction
room., The offering of Continental goo-fe in this way-
have. bean chiefly confined to Merinosand Ribbons.—
The highest colors of the latter, realized, many ot
them wrthin5per cent of private sate prices; tlie
blacks,, were less sought for, and many or them sold
low.

The Coco Grass. The noxious weed, which hRs
done bo much injury in the State of Louisiana* where
whole plaotations have been overrun by it, and left
to lie waste, has made its appearance inTexas, and is
spreading rapidly over the country. It is said to hsv e
been introduced with plants brought from New Or*
leans.
CF* The Republican of yesterdny. commenting
upon our paragraph in reference to Governor Town’s
Proclamation, in which we ex press'd the hope that
the people of tho Btnte would sustain, witli prompt
ness and unanimity, the nation of their Legislative
aud Executive authorities, remarks :
Our rotempornry does not point out the way to
“ sustain the action of tho Legislative und Executive
authorities"—whether by disunion or non-inter
course. The important thing just now is the man
lier, the plan, by which tills is to be done.
Precisely so. It Is the “importance” of determin
ing that “tiling just now” which has induced the call
of the Convention. It is not our province, even If
wo felt capable of doing so, to point out "the manner,
the plan by which this is to bo done.” We propose
to leave it to the people, whose common rights and
interests are involved. Has not tho editoroftbe Repub-
fan sufficient confidence in their intelligence, patriot
ism and moderation tosubmlt the matter to their do
liberation and decicion? We will only add that we
haVenever advocated “disunion or non-intercourse,”
though we are perfectly willing to abide by the de
cision of the people of Georgia in Convention as
sembled, who we think quite as cnpable of deter
mining whnt measures are right and proper to he
adopted in the present emergency ns are those politi
cians and editors who are laboring tocrente divisions
among our people and to place the State in nn atti
tude to make her ridiculous and contemptible in the
eyes of our enemies.
Wc are for union ns long ns tlie Union can bo hon
orably maintained; but where Georgia declares that
she can no longer remain in the Union, with safely
ami honor, then we are for Georgia. In the language
of the Republican on a recent occasion— " Much as
we love the Union, wo love Georgia more. And
when tho people of Georgia, united with one accord
and with the truo spirit of Georgians, shall give her
banner to the breeze, bear it Union or Disunion, we
shall be found under its folds, whether it float in tri
umph or sink in blood.”
Salaries of Judges in California. The bill
extending the judicial system ot the United States
to California, has pnsaed, ssys the correspondent of
the Charleston Courier, and the salaries of the Judge
in one district fixed at $3,500. aud the other at $4000.
Mr. Owinn and Col. Fremont contended that the
salaries were too small tor the scale of expenses n
California. It was urged, in reply, that the salaries
once fixed, could not be altered while the incumbent
wns in office, and that if the salary was too low now,
it would not be so after a year or two, when prices
would settle down at a reasonable rate. To this Col.
Fremont replied that if prices were to depend on
tlie gold product, they must increase, for that pro
duct was to he vastly increased, and the sources of
it were inexhaustible. We do not look to the pla
cers, he said, as the chief source, but to the whole
qunrtz region, extending three or four hundred
miles. He asserted that recent assays had.proved
that tlie quartz rock would yield from $1,20 to $5 a
pound, and tlie same extent of operations that were
carried on in Brazil last year by the English Mining
Company would have produced $179,000,000. The
qunntity of ore worked by the English Company in
Brazil was 69,000 tons.
Since the above was in type, we have had the
pleasure of an interview with Cnpt. Berry. The
disaster which he has brieily detailed above, was a
most perilous and distressing occurrence. At the
time of the discovery of the leak, Cnpt. B„ one man
and the mate, worn the only persons on board able to
stand to the pumps. These were almost entirely ex
hausted by their exertions to keep the brig afloat, and
ut the time of abandoning tlie vessel, it was with the
greatest difficulty, in the durknoss and storm, they got
the sick crew in the host in safety. The brig having
capsized, her deck load of heavy timber was thrown
into the sen, and dashed about by the waves, for a
time, greatly endangering the safety of the boat which
was scarcely able to live in tlie henvy sea. After
clearing tlie foundered vessel, the crew in their smnll
open boat—which they were only enabled to keep
afloat by constantly baling with their hats and shoes
—floated about til moruing, expecting eve y sea
to swamp them. As soon as it was light, they di
rected iheir course for land, guided by the sun, having
uo compass on board, in this situation, with only
a scanty supply of bread and water, with fiveBick
men, they were exposed lor 30 hours, when they
were fortunately discovered and rescued by tlie J.
IV. Godfrey.
Capt. Berry is of opinion that the crew of the
Brig which passed his boat on the morning after he
abandoned his vessel, must have seen him, as from
the boat he was able to seo tho men at their various
employments on the deck of the vessel, he made
signals of distress, and the almost dying boat's crew,
shouted with all their strength to attract the attention
of those on board the brig. It is to be hoped for the
sake of humanity that the crew oi the brig did not
see tlie boat, as such heartless selfishness as their con
duct would otherwise indicate, would be a disgrace
not only to the character of the sailor, but to our
aperies.
Cnpt. B. was unable to save anything’ from the
wreck, having lost even his clothing, except what he
wore at tho time. His perils and sacrifices have been
great, and we trust he will receive from all, that hoe.
pitality and sympathy to which his misfortunes enti
tle him. He speaks in gratelul terms of tlie people
St. Mary's and of Capt. Blankenship and Mr. Hem
ming, of the steamer J. Stove, to whom he is indebt
ed lor much kindness and who tendered him a free
passage from St. Marys to this city. He will leave by
the first opportunity for his home in Somerset, Mas.
•achusetts.
Loss of the Steamer Franklin.—The steam
boat F'rnnklin was wrecked on Currituck beach, N. C.
14th inst. She was front Philadelphia bound to Wil
mington, N. C. She ran well up on the beach, snd
has gone to pieces. Herengine and boiler are saved.
Support of the South. “Our oftentimes repented
declarations that the institutions oithe Southern States
must rely for support upon the Democracy of
the North,"are thus being verified.— Washington Un
ion.
We have never yet seen anything in any North
ern paper, Whig, Fret-soil, Abolition or Democratic
so coteraptuous of the South as that.—Macon Tele-
graph.
The New York Express ot Thursday says :-
“ St. Mary’s.” in the Savannah “ Morning News,'
cannot, we think, have, come within gun shot of the
true solution of Miss Seward's Enigma. Nor do we
believe that “ A. T. S.” in the National Intelligencer is
much nearer the mark. He says:
“Non-resistenceis the oath
By troops and lovers ta’en."
We thought “troops” took first the other kind of
oath.
A missis as good ns a mile in such matters.
From Havana. The latest accounts from Havana
are to the 18th inst. On the 14th inst., 300 troops
from Spain arrived there, and it is reported thnt 3000
more are on their way to the Island. Conde Alcoy
has been recalled, and Gen. Jose de la Concha, the
newly appointed Captain General of Cuba, was daily
expected ot Havana.
The Charleston Courier learns from a gentleman
who left Havana about a fortnight since, thnt it wns
currently reported before his departure, that the
Captain and two mates, the ODly reinaiuing American
prisoners who had been kept in durance, had been
placed on beard of a Spanish vessel, and were on
their way to Ceuta, a Spanish seuport town on the
Northern coast of Africa.
Kossuth. It Is stated that the Sultan of Turkey
has notified our government of his readiness to send
Kossuth aud his companions, free of expense, provi
ded the United States will bring them over to this
country. The matter is to be considered in Execu
tive Bessien of the Senate.
1ST Mr. Ludwig, from Haynau, (near Fraukfort,)
who, it is said, lias been implicated in the trial re
specting the death of the Count Lichnowsky, at
Fraukfort, has escaped from prison and arrived in

ESP* Washington Irving, we see it stated, will be
able to keep his copy right iu England, it seems, be.
cause, though he was born here, his parents were
born in England: and this rnukos him, according to
English law, an Englishman, and therefore entitled
to take out a copy right
Rumored Loss of the Steamer If. J. Prase.—A gen
tinman who arrived in tlie Columbus, states that be
fore he left Panama there was a rumor generally cred
ited there that the steamer W. J. Pease had been
seen from the Northerner strugiing hard for several
hours, a few days niter passing the Straits of Magel
lan. und hnd gone down with ail on board; she was
compelled to put into Montevideo some time before
that, iu consequence of having sprung a leak.
The. new Steamship Franklin, tlie first of the line of
steam packets between the United States and France
building in New York, is now nearly completed, and
in the course of three weeks will probably bn fully
ready for sea. The Franklin is a noble specimen of

acquainted with all the Dualities of the various steam
ships now running,say that the Franklin will surpass
them all in speed, and that her mate, the Humbolt,
will even be superior to the Franklin. Nous verrous.
E3P* A telegraphic despatch from Washington
says:—Fears areentertained that, in consequence of
the large number of members who have paired off

CF* Count Dembtnaky, the Hungarian patriot,
who arrived in this couutry a short time since, is said
to be doing a prosperous business as a tobacconist in
New York city.
California Affairs. A San Francisco letter in
the Journal of Commerce, speaking of the late riot
in Sacramento city, says—
The squatters contend that most of the pretended
grunts are all moonshine, and that they have a right
to settle on any part of the unoccupied land of this
public domain, and that no power short of that of
the United States can make them surrender that l ight.
Hence, tills outbreak has been caused tiy the State
Courts ordering ejectments, and the State officers
endeavoring to enforce them. You will therefore
perceive not only that anacliy reigns in Sacramento,
but that our whole State is threatened with it. May
Heaver, save us from such an uwful calamity I
lu my opinion, it is madness, at the present junc
ture of affairs to attempt to drive oft' these squatters
whether they are right or wrong. They are a strong,
numerous body of men, and those who attempt to
tear down their houses, or drive them from them, I
fear will do it at their peril. If the authorities have
no more discretion than to determine upon accom
plishing this, wo have hurdly yet beard tlie beginning
ot trouble. Whatever the fears of others may be.it
is my opinion that tlie landholders willfalter in push
ing matters at present to the point thut they had de
termined upon, und that order will soon again be re
stored.
The excitement here is tremendous. Every one
sveins disposed to do whatever he can towards res
toring order in oursietercitv. The views of the peo-
Ijle however are greatly divided, some siding with
the landholders, aud others with the squatters; but
all contending that ordermust be restored immediately,
and that other matters may be settled at some future
period. 4
An account of the affair in the New Tor Tri
bune says:
Just as the steamer Carolina was getting under
way (about 4 P M) a despatch was received un board
Irom the Pacific News office, stating that an express
had just arrived, bringing the intelligence that Sacra
mento City had been reduced to ashes, and the squat
ters were receiving reinforcements of men from the
mines.
The despatch referred to was received by Mr. Nor-
eross, Assistant Editor of the Pacific News, who reach*
ed here last night in the Philadelphia. Ho consider*
od it, we understand, entirely reliable.
1 J tinie the Carolina left, fifty U. S. soldiers
had left Benicia for the sceno of battle, and two vol-
unteer companies in Son Francisco had also offer
ed their services to maintain order.
Christian hookB in the Chinese language have been
introduced into California by the American Bible
Society. These books are a portion of the New Tes
