S.-We hear that the cholera has broken out on one of the sugar estates in Sagua la Grande, but do not know to what extent. ty The Annual Drawing of the American Art Union took place at Tripler Hall, in New York, on Tuesday last.

ESP" We have neither time nor inclination to con tinue the unprofitable controversy with the Republi can. Indeed,after his lame attempt to escape from the ridiculous dilemma in which he wqs placed by our article cm Tuesday,it would be next to cruel inuslo pursue him farther. '‘Wolf," as he calls us, we have no desire to wound aprostrate “lamb,” and especial ly In these holiday times, when we desire to culti vate kindly feelings towards friends end enemies, we cannot find it in our heart to treat with severity our pantaloon cotemporary, whose position excites our commisseratlon rather than our enmity. The editor’s last article was about as harmless n pro duction as everemanated from his pen, and but for his voluntary eflort to make the “community” a party to Ida quarrel with us, we should not have deigned a re ply. While we hold ourself ready and able to meet the attacks oftheeditorofthe Republican, we do not con sider the Morning News exactly a match tor the en tire community, and we think it rather ungenerous In our •• established" cotemporary to endeavor to enlist the entire population against us. It' he hns, as he pretends, o higher estimate of the " intelligence of the community" than ourself, lie has a very remarka ble way of exnibiting it, when ho attempts to flatter them, by tolliog them of their "old fashioned sim plicity” and “good breeding”, into an espousal of his quarrel with acotemporary,of whose merits anil char acter they are quite as capable ot judging as himsell. The editor arrays against us the “whole communi ty.” Now, as he has such an instinctive horror of “ gross misstatements,” we will merely ask if he cannot make some little abatement of thin charge i Would it not be as well to qualify by baying a por tion ot the community 7 We flatter ourself that wc have some friends in Savannah, and if our subscip- tion list is any indication of the fact, that we havo quite as many as the Republican. The editor reminds U9 of the Indisn chief who went to New York. He was big “Ingiu, heap,” and although drunk from the day ho entered the city until he left It, he never relaxed his dignity, and had not th slightest suspicion ot the fact. When lie re turned to the nation hie people were anxious to know something about New York. One asked what kind of a place it was. To which he replied. “Eh’ hem I New York—lib town—toder side—white man too much I" Another asked how the people were in New York “Eh’ hem I"—said the chief “people ail drunk " So it is with the editor of the Republican. Being strongly prejudiced against the Morning News, be thinks the “whole community” share iu his opin ions. Theeditorfurthel charges ns with beingthe “laugh ing stock of thecommunity.” He seems to be afflict ed with a peculiar obliquity of comprehension. He has made the disc jvery that the community are in a good humor—that their risibilities have beenexcited. but has committed the ridiculous and characteristic blunder of supposing that they are laughing at his Harlequin,” instead our "Pnntaloon"and his “Cake.” But we are not without hopes for the editor's iin provement and reformatio!:. In his last article he ex cuses himself for the unprovoked attack made upon us, on the ground that he felt it a duty which he owed to the public “ to expose his (our) ridiculously absurd pretensions.” Having succeeded in showing up himself instead of us, he will perhaps profit by the lesson, and for the future, allow that community, for whose "old fashioned simplicity” and “good breed ing” he professes so much disinterested regard, to place their own estimate on the character and “pre tensions'’ of his cotempornries. 8TEAM30AT DtsASTERt—The steamer South America took fire, near Bayou Sara, on the night of the 19th inst, and in less than twenty minutes, was totally destroyed. She had on board two hundred persons, including one hundred United States sol diers, seven oi whom perished, who were going to Texas. It ia believed that between thirty and forty passengers lost their lives. All the baggage belong ing to the passengers was destroyed The etesmoeFashion, No. 2 collapsed a flue, a short idistance above Pittsburgh, on the Monongahcla river on the 21st inst, and so severely scalded many of tlio passengers amferew that five of them instantly died. The forward part of the cabin was blown overboard, anq it is supposed that several persons were car ried along. The News by the Africn. The threatened war in Germany, from the current reports, seems to havo been stayod for the pre sent, and, aa a matter of course, tho influence of the amicable news was almost instantly experienced in the various markets. The scarcity of silver continues to attract consid able attention, and bas caused a still further rise in the precious metal. The money market, generally, had also greatly improved. Cotton, it appears, has been acted upon by the pacific news from “Fsderiand," and large transac tions were being entered into. With regard to Germanic affairs, thern seems to be considerable doubt. The Liverpool Times of the 7th. remarks that “the uncertainty whetii er there is to be peace or war is aa great as ever, and the ordera for the armaments on both sides have not been sus pended. - v’i , i* The “ Papal Aggressions," as the recent Catholic movements in England are called, still excite some degr e of attention. However, tins reflecting and sensibl • portiou of the people are beginning to view the matter in a more Christian-like spirit, and it is to be hoped that, by the arrival ot the next steamer, we shall receive the gratifying information that all creeds 'are allowed to worship after their own fashion. From France the news is not very important, aa all political interests are bound up in the German quur- rel. The Legislative Assembly has declared its neu trality, and in ench a tone aa t o enforce a strict obedi ence to its mandates. Choleba in Jamaica.—TJie Kingston papers re. reived by the Cherokee., contain the moet nppuUing, accounts of the ravages of the cholera in that vicini- aome places all the cases proved fatal, the dyingin the short space of two or three ter the attack, The, deaths in the Islands are Slave Case In Philadelphia—Great Excite ment, Philadelphia, Dec. 21, 1850.—About noon to-day, considerable expitement was caused in this city by the arrest of Adam Gibson, a colored man, on a nom inal charge of stealing chickens, hut really as a fugi tive slave belonging to Win. Knight, of Cecil county Maryland. He was taken to the U. S. Marshal’s office, and a hearing shortly after took place before Ed ward D. Ingraham-. Esq , Commissioner . After several ineffectual motions to postpone the case made by David Paul Brown, and Messrs Pierce and Hurbest, the evidence of the claim was gone into and the identity of the negro was proven by one wit ness, who saw him on tne farm or William Stark, in 1841. He was claimed as Emory Rice, who ran away in 1841, and is now said to be 36 years old. The prisoner’s counsel contended that his true name is Adam Gibson, formerly owned by Parson Henry Davis, but liberated by the liiet will of his own- er.in 1840. onoondition of emigrating to Liberia— This statement was attempted to be proved by a cer tified copy of tho will. Tho chso was argued by William E. Lehman, for the claimant, and Messrs. Pierce and Brown for the defence. At the close of tho argument, the Commissioner He dared thatall the formalities required by the law had been fulfilled, and being satiettedot the fugitive's identity, he ordered him to be remanded for the pur pose of being placed in the possession of his owner. Alarge crowd of colored people congregated in front ot Independence Hall, where the case was heard, ond they still continued there at a late hour; but the fugitive had been removed by the back way and will go South by the mail train this evening. Disgraceful Proceedings in Illinois—Almost n liiot. Peoria, Ill. Dec. 19,1850. Our city wn3 again thrown into much excitement to-day. The execution of Brown and Williums for the murder of Mr. Hewett was to have taken place yesterday but by an order from the Governor, re ceived on Wednesday, it was extended to the fifteenth of January next. This not being generally known nor credited, large masses of people of this and adjoining counties, as sembled to witness tho execution, and being disap pointed in their expectations, a portion of them re solved that the persons should be executed forthwith, and urged on by exciting speeches, they got posses sion ot the scaffold from the jail yard, and erected it in the street, in front of the jail. They then ef fected an entrance by jerking the doors and locks: and proceeded with crowbars, scantling and other implements, to the cells, where they met with resis tance from Bruwn, who, although shackled, as soon as the cells wereopened, stepped into the hall, disarmed afew of the mobbers, by taking from them the crow bars end scantling, bar ed his cell on the inside, and defied them. Ho broke the scantling over the mobbers and gave them other striking illustrations of his en tire disapprovalof such unlawful proceedings. The prisoners were again secured in the cells, and before dark the crowd dispersed. Thus resulted, what at first all supposed would bo a most tragical and disgracelul affair. The mob fell back, and a tew of our citizens dropping in at this juncture, prevent dfurther violence. The News fbom California.—'The details in the Northern papers of tho news trom California brought by the Cherokee; fully corobornte our tele graphic accounts published on Saturday last. The cholera had been very fatal In Shii Francisco nnd Sacramento, but was visibly abating in these locali ties, while it was extending its ravages in the line- rior. Private letters received in New York, give less favorable accounts of the rnvageaaof the epidem ic. It was feared that it would be very fatal in the mines. There was .much destitution and want in the country, which it was feared would increase the mortality. Business was very dull, in con sequence of “ the immense mortality,” so says the Alta Californian of the 15'U ult. Gold continued plenty but fortunes arc no longer to bo picked up in a few months Confession of Robbery and Murdbr.-TIio Ha gerstown (Md.) Hews bus received a pnmphlet, par- porting to be the confession of one Charles Wallace, which gives an account of tho robbery of Mr. 'ohn Funk nt Hagerstown, several years ago, committed by himself and an accomplice, named Snelling. This conlesBion wus written by Wallace, ns he says, from memory, nnd given by him to tho Rev. Henry Tracy nt the stake where he was burned alive by a mob on the banks of the Mississippi, on tho 11th of August, 1850. He confesses to the murder of Miss Mary Rogers, tho beantiful cigar girl of New York, and a number of robberies nnd other crimes. Release of Wm. L. Chaplin, the Slave Ab ductor. — Tho Washington Republic of Saturduy has tho following: The end of the\Chaplin Case.—Mr. Chaplin was, on Thursday, liberated from the jail of Montgomery county, @19,1100 bail having been entered for his ap pearance Ht Howard District Court. Bail to the amount of 0,000 had been give in this District. He passed through Bultimore, on Thursday, on hts re turn home. Tho Baltimore Sun says— The facts in this case we learn are, that Chaplin was brought down from Rockville last Thursday .un der writ of habeas corpus, and taken before Judge Brewer at his chambers in Annapolis, where Geo. B.- Williums, ot Baltimore, appeared with him as ore ot his counsel und gave the required bail as above stnt ed. It is said that Garrett Smith paid five thousand dollars of th ■ bidl. This has probably saved Chhpliti from the penitentiary, as it is thought ho wilt hard ly appear for trial. We hope tho illustrious tiegro thief is well satis fied with his adventure. His admirers will now have an opportunity of manifesting their appreciation of his heroism. We believe he has been already nom inated for tbn Presidency. He may consolo himself with the reflection that he has contributed as mucii as any other single individual out of Congress to secure the enactment of the Fugitive Slave Law. A great Union demonstration took place at Bridgeport, Conn, on Friday evening, with out distinc tion of party embracing fully two-thirds of tho voters. They gave strong utterance to their sentiments in favor of the Union, the costitution and the laws.— Bridgeport is tho first piaoe iu the land of “Steady Habits,” that has thus spoken out. The meeting was presided over by the mayor, anil letters were read from Hon. Daniel Webster, and/Senators Cass, and Foote and Dickinson. Each of them expressed ardent sympathy with the object of the meeting. The Ohio Legislature is occupying its time in casting unsuccessful ballots for a United States Senator in tne place of Thomas Ewing, whose term expires in March next. The chances of an election during tliepresent session are very slim. The Leg islature has voted d >wn, 38 to 33, a proposition in. Btructing their Congressmen in favor of a repeal of the fugilive law Good, for Ohio. Per steamer Jasper, from Charleston—N and family, 2 Misses Smith, Messrs II R Ligno M Wondrum. F Wilson.
