ARRIVAL OK THE CHEROKEE .'with HALF A MILLION OF GOLD. Ravages of the Cholera—Fire in San Fran cisco. New-Youk, Dec.20,10} P. M. The steamer Cherokee arrived here this afternoon with two weeks later intelligence irom California, bringing half a million dollars in Gold dust. The papers contain terrible accounts ot the ravo - ges of cholera at San Francisco and Sacramento Ci ties. The mortality had been very great. Another destructive lire had occurred at San Fran cisco, by which the Eagle Hotel, Galena Hotel, and 12 other buildings, were consumed. Loss estimated at $40,000. Business is represented as being vei“y m\. Import op Rail Road Iron.—The Br. Bark Kings ton, Cspt. Robinson, arrived lastevening from Car diff, Wa es, with 3,754 bars of Rail Road Iron, for the East Tennessee and Georgia Rail Road Company,con- signed to Wat. P. Tepft, Esq. The Second Shad.—It seems :hat neighbor Con. Don of the City Hotel is not to be altogether dis tanced in the shad race. His boarders luxuriated in a lino broiled shad at dinner yesterday. By the way, it strkes us as very strange that the shad are so slow in coming up to be eaten. If they knew what a “distinguished stranger'’ the first shad % and had one half the ambition of a Genin or a Dodge, they would certainly quicken tneirpace; and if they could but be aware of the affectionate so licitude with which their approach is anticipated, they would surely hasten to relieve yearning bosoms of their anxious and expectant admirers. S3” For interesting m&tter see outside. Congressional Brides—A Washington corres. pondent of the New York Miror, says : “At the Na. tional there areno less than eighty brides—several of them being Congressional brides. These gay birds are ominous oi a brilliant season.’’ This is all very well, but the business oi the coun try should not be neglected for those "gay birds.” Members of Coogress should appropriate some more suitable time to the business of bird catching and bird taming. Wkalthv Corporation. —The corporation of Trinity Church, of New York city, is the richest in this eount'y, aud may be said to be amonget the rich est churches iu the wortd. Its property is estimated at from twelve to sixteen millions ol dollars. Arrest op a Fugitive Slave.—We learn from the Fayette (Pa-) Whig that the first arrest under the Fugitive Slave law, in that country, was made at Union town, on the 17th instant. The slave was claimed by a citizen of Maryland, and was to have bad a hearingtyslpre Commissioner Irwin on Wed nesday last. There wasnot the slightest excitement on the occasion. A great dog fight is to come off soon, in a hotel near Boston. Use dog belongs in New York, and the otherin thatcity. - The brutes who allow the dogs to fight, says the Bee, reside iu the same cities, and each one bets $200 on his dog Ingratitude of the Republican- Tile ingratitude of the Republican is only equall ed by its cool effrontory. We confess that alter all we have done for the editor in times pnst, al ter all the effort wo have expended in reasoning him into a tenoblc position on the Southern question, we wero not prepnred for such an i ngrateful “fling” as that con tained in his paper of yesterday morning. When last summer, he took ground against the Conven tion, questioned the right of the Governor to call such a body together, and opposed any ultimatum, any de claration of Southern Rights principles by the people of Georgia, in the generosity of our feelings towards him, we expostulated with him against such a course; and when afterwards, he opposed the passage of any resolutions by our meetings in this city or the adop tion of any platform of general principles by our delegates, while he labored to convince his readers that there was no necessity for action, and that the South had no cause of apprehension or dissatisfac tion. wo remonstrated with him against so suicidal apo'icy; and we flatter ourself that we were some What instru mental in bringing him up to the position on this question which he now occupies, and which he so reluctantly assumed. Little did we suppose then that lie would have the hardihood, the in gratitude to turn round upon us, and endeavor to drive us from our own ground. Little did we then think that our convert would have the unblushing effrontery to attempt to monopolise the very South ern Rights Principles in which we had been to so much pains to indoctrinate him, and to charge us with inconsistency for defending them. But it is a trite saying that “Republics are ungrateful.” The maxim we suppose applies to “Republicans" as well, and we must not, honcetorth, allow ourself to be surprised at the ingratitude, as we have long since ceased to wonder at the effrontery of ou r cotemporary. Wo fear that the work ot conversion is not so tho rough ns it should have been,or lie would nothave such serious objections to our bolding our principles in common with him. It is to be hoped, however, that now lie is so well assured ho “is on the popular side,” lie will become stronger in the Southern faith, nntil like an innocent “lamb,” as lie calls himself, lie will feel no apprehension in making bia bed with the “wolf." We aro uncertain whether the editor's obtuseness is real or affected. Whether it is a peculiar disin terestedness which he feela in the success of the Morning News, or whotber it is the force of habit, acquired by a subserviency to party, by which his mental vision has been jaundiced, and his judgment distorted in tho practice of the arts and deceptions of partisan warfare, we are unable to say, but certain it is he seems to have no conception of the principles by hich an independent press is governed. Hecannot reconcile it to himself thatwe should have any opinions of our own upon the groat questions of the day; and because we aronot, like him, torced to follow thelend of some ambitious demagogue, or political clique at Washington, and to advance and defend their posi tions, right or wrong, through all the vicissitudes and changes of great national questions, ho charges us with inconsistency. Ho is filled with wondr- ot our somersets, and says we remind him of the “invisible Harlequin.” He admires our “agility and adroit ness,” and expresses his utter consternution at find ing us, as he says, alter our “many attacks upon the Republican," standing side by side with him. We are sorry that it has been the misfortune of the News to be the bete noir of tho editor, and are glad the.t we have afforded him some diversion to com pensate for our “many attacks upon the Republi can." The illustration he has given us is, perhaps, not a bad one. But he should have carried out the Bimile. The difference between us is, that while our gyrations and somersets, like those of the sprightly Harlequin, are at our own option, and by our own volition, he, like poor old Pantaloon. the Buffoon in the play, is metamorphosed at the will of others and made the sonpe-goat of their innumerable di lemmas, by the more prominent characters in the political pantomime. But we apprehend that it is not so much our principles, nor our pretnuded metamorphoses, that disturbs the quietude of the “lamb” of the Republican We cannot think he has any real objection to our sharing in his political principles, but there are other principles and interests, far dearer to him, whieb he has no disposition to share with us; and it is for this reason that he has been steadily striving to place us in a false position before his readers, and to stigma tise the News as on ultra disunion press. We are tired of defending ourself from theso oft repeated misrepresentations of our course, and as the public will understand arid appreciate the motives of both journals as they deserve, we are perfectly willing to let the assertions of the editor pass without further contradiction. Opinions' of the Southern Rights Press anil of the P eoplc. The Griffin Jeffersonian, one ot the ablest South* etn Rights papers In ihe State, is out in an article cordially approving tho proceedings of the Conven tion. The editor says>y‘ For oureeli, wc are entire ly enet.sficd, because, in our opinion, the Convention have done precisely what the candidates on the other ticket, in this State, would have done, hnd a majori ty on that ticket been elected,” A meeting was held in Griffin, on Monday night, in which buth parties joined in adopting resolutions approving of this course of the Convention. The Colutrtbus Times, distinguished, during tho re cent controversy, lbr its extreme opinions, speaking of the Convention, says: While it has gone jusf as far as the veriest fire- eater could defire, in reference to future aggressions, it has upset all the crotchets of Toombs and Stephens and the Columbus “Enquirer," touching the highly triumphant character of the acta of the last Congress in respect to Soutfiern Rights. In short, admitting it as a foregone conclusion that the vast was to bo forgiven, tho Convention has planted its stakes for the future as deeply as it could well have been done. * * * f » * * On the whole, we fancy wo nre about as Well pleased with the procecdhgs of this body, as some of the ultra sort of submtmionista, who are for tho union under all circumstnoce of aggression.” Hus the "lamb” of the Republican any objection to lying down with these “wolves" ? Wo wait to hear its bleat. , A French Tkagedy.—Grant sensation has been caused in the department of the Charente, bv the arrest of the Countess duS and of the cure of the commune ot St. Geriimin, on the charge of hav ing poisoned the eervaui of the latter, in order tc prevent her from rerealiig the adulterous connec tion which existed betwetn them. Tile body of the servant, which ’he cure hid caused to be buried with great haste, has been duj up and poison found in it, wiient the Count du S-—]—. a highly honorable man, heard of the hrrriblo accusation against his wife, he proposed to her that they shou'd both commit suicido and that their child; aged eight die with them. The Couiite-s consented, A pan of charcoal Was lighted, and the three fastened iienlselves in a loose room. Whpn, however, the lather snw his son struggling in the agonies of death, his courage failed him, and he broke the window for air. Mediealassiatance having been promptly nfforded, all three recovered. The Countess and her clerical paramour were lodged in the goal of Angouleme, tri await their trial for the alledged murder.—Qiligntni's Messenger. Woman Murdered— A young woman, Maria Kenny, died at Brooklyn, N. Y., on Friday, from hav ing had her bead fractured by a slung shot in the hand of a fellow who forced himself into her com pany on the ferry boat, the wgek previous, and whomahe repulsed. J3P - Paper from tow is stated to have been invent- and made at Berlin, so difficult, if not impossible, to be counterfeited, that it will supersede all other fabrics for bank notes, stamps, Ac. Flax Cotton.—An industrial invention of impor- I tanca is spoken cf in some of the foreign journals— W It is a recently discovered mode of preparing flax for P, the manufacturer, "by which the dilatory, costly and wasteful process of Steeping is altogether supersed «d.” The Paris correspondent of tho New York Journal of Commerce, referring to this invention, *ays-“Mr,?. Claussen has succeeded in menulac taring the unsteeped flax into various descriptions of material wh(eh possess respectively all the warmth of wool, the softness ot cotton, and the glossiness of eilk, and which, to the eye and the touch, are identi cal with those fabrics. Arrangements were in pro gress for making, in Manchester, experiments on large scale with regard to the value of Chevalier Claussen’« mode of adapting the flax fibre to the cob ton machinery." ET The Anti-Papal Movement in England is the main subject of comment in the English papers. Lon don badadded to iu already numerous pronuncia men to*, during the week ending Nov. 30th. by a great outburst at Guildhall. Scotland is also stirring,— Resolutions denouncing the Pope as the man of sin, were passed in the General Assembly in the Scottish capital by acclamation. It has been announced officially th-t her Majesty receives with very great satisfaction ail addresses presented to her against the late bull of the Pope. Mr. Hume, a liberal member of parliament, ridicules tho idea of the clergy of the Church ofEngland pretending to be alarmed at the proceedings of the Catholics, and declares that the Church has much more to fear from the Anti-State Church Societies,whom this movement will strength en, than from the Pope’s bull. . From Turks Island—Tho schooner Tremont, Captain Mitchell, arrived at New York on Sunday from Turks Island, whence ahe sailed on-tbe3d inst There was no salt to he obtained either at Grand Turk's or at Salt Key, when the Tremont left. Seve- ■ml vessels that had come to take cargoes to New Or leans were obliged to leave without them. The Tre' wesS was obliged to go over to the East Harbor, on the Caicos, U> procure a cargo, and there was a very Httieieft when she sailed. Owing to the great quail, tity of rain which has fallen lately it was not expect, •d that anymore would be made before March or April. ■ Effect of Intemperance.—A prominent citizen of Boston, who has lately become intemperate, in a fit of delirium tremens, last week, took a hatchet and chopped off *11 the fingers of one of bis hands, Special Notices.

How a Woman Lost a Beautiful Leg.—The London Lancet, of July,tells the following extraordinary story:— Late one evening, a person came into our office, and asked to see tne editor of the Lancet. On being introduced to our sanctum,bepiaced a bundle upon thp table, from which he proceeded to extract a very fair and symmetrical lower extremity, which might have matched “ Atlanta’s bettnr part,’ ’ and which had evidently belonged to a woman. “There,” said he, “is there anything the matter with that leg! Did you ever see a handsomer? What ought the man to be done with who cut that off ?” On hearing the meaning of these interrogatories put before us, we found it was the leg of the wife of our evening visiter. He had been accustomed to ad mire the leg and foot ofthe lady, of the perfection of which be was, it appears, conscious. A few days liefore he had excited tier anger, and they had quar reled violently, upon which she left the house, de claring that she would be revenged on him, and that he should never again see the object of his admira tions Tiie next thing he heard was, that she was a patient in tho hospital of , and had her leg am putated. She lmd declared to the surgeon that she suffered intolerable pain iu her knees, and begged to have the limb removed—a petition rh e surgeon com plied with,nnd thus became the instrument of her own absurd revenge upon her husband.” Loss of the Brig Nbftunus—3’he Bremen bark Philadelphia, Cupt.
