Our Northern daily exchanges are but little better tlinn weeklies to us, under the prosent arrangement. Progress or'Tjj* Shad.—Since our lastfavora- ble and inviting notice to 1 " the shad in our market, wo understand two more have made their appearance, and laid claim to the honor of a public reception.— Accordingly, on Christmas one was served up at tho Pulaski llouso, and tho other delighted the palates of the boarders at the Pavillion in South Broad street.

Jenny Lind in Charleston.—Tho Charleston papers of yesterday glvh us descriptions of tho first Concert of the “Nightingale'' in that city, on Thurs day night. It is not worth while to follow them through all their panegyrics ; but we will extract one paragraph from the Courier (the staid, business like Cburier.) for an example : “ The Bird Song ami the Echo Song were loudly encored. But the gem of the performance was the simple, plaintive nir of Home, sweet home, which, fa miliar as it Is to every one,we had never heard really sung before it came from the mellifluous Ups of Jenny Lind." ' 7 Heaven help the editor of the News, if this is the way It effects evepy body. He has gone to listen to the warblings from'tlioae "mellifluous lips," and much we fear that it will be long after his return before he recovers his equilibrium. We learn from a friend, who was present on the occasion, that there was a part of the performance not reported in the papers next morning. It seems the.Charleston people have an uncomfortable recol lection of a wooden mummy which Barncm palmed off upon them some years ago; and before the np pearance of Man'llo Lind they made a demonstra tion, accompanied with violent Iangiiage, threaten ing to burn tho Theatre. The Mayor, it seems, hnd had an Intimation of what was intended, and pre pared an armed force accordingly, and, appearing on tae stage, notified the > rioters of the fact. No thing, however,had the effect of quelling the disturb ance, which was momentarily increasing, until Mad'lle Lind mads her appearance—and all was si lence, Calm, anil respectful. Such was tho effect her appearance that the riotous demonstration was not renewed. Shivery Movement In California. Tho New-York Tribune says that private advices from Cidlfqrnia stato that many of the capitalists in that State aro making a move for a change in the constitution of California, so as to introduce Alricnn slavery.'fir . An argument used by the friends of the late com promise has been, that California could, il she de sired slavery, ao alter her constitution as to admit the institution, and that if the country was adapted to slave labor, the pooplo would not lail to consult their interests by employing it. That the people could alter their constitution, we have never denied, but that there was any prospect of their doing so, while a large majority of the population of the State was composed of adventurers and speculators trom the free States, who had no permanent interest in the country, and whose prejudices were against the in- stltution, we have always doubted. It hnd been too evidently the intention of those concerned in the forced admission of the new State into the Union to exclude slavery from the vast territories on the Pa- citic, to admit of a reasonable belief Hint the institu tion 'would ever be allowed a foothold there, however much the interests of the community might demand It Therefore, we were unable to find, in this vague surmise of n possible change of the constitution of the State, any mitigation of tho wrong which had been infleted upon the South by the “trespassers" on her domain. Recent indications, however, seem to lavor the ultimate verification of what we have heretofore conceived to be n merely chimoricul idea,'opposed to all ratiunal views, and discredited even by those who advanced it in the way of argument, it is a notorious fact, that within tho past four or five months.the cmi- gration from has been much larger than the emigra tion to California. The tenor of the late accounts has been less encouraging to adventurers than were those first manufactured for the purpose of swelling emigration from the Northern States. Fortunes are not now made in a month by speeuiators.nor arc thou sand dollar lum»9 of Gold pickedup now as formerly every day ou the surface. Gold mountains have diminished into mole hills, and the “ diggings" have become grave-holes instead ot Gold holes, as they were previous to the formation ot the constitu tion. Thousands havo died from the privations inci dent to reckless adventure, while tens of thousands have returned disappointed to their homes -n the States, until.as Mr. Berrien remarked in his speech in this city, perhaps two thirds of the Americans who gave a constitution to California, excludingtlie South from n participation in the domnin to which she had a joint right with the other States of the Union, ore now back, plodding citizens, in the States of their nativity. The Gold mania is fast dying out—.tho labot* of digging the precious metal fiom the mines is not what it was originally supposed to be, and in another year, few white me . will be found to risk health and life in the precarious pursuit of Gold. The dis covery has perhaps already beeu made, tb»t the Gold mines in California, as in all other countries, in order to be profitable must he worked by associated or slave labor. The commercial and agricultural inter ests of the country nre identified with the mining in terests, and it ia notun ikely under the new aspect ot atfuirs, that those who remain in California and who have a permanent interest in the country, may favor the introduction of slaves in the mining districts.— In such an event as the alteration of the constitu tion of California, wo think it verf probable that those who were so desirous thnt the new State should embrace the whole of our Pacific border,will be very willing for a reduction of her limits. Should the thing occur, we may ex .ect to sec some political novelties, such as the exigencies of the country have not yet developed. Special Notices. MEDICAL NOTICE.

New Hampshire Democrats and the Fugitive Law,—A great stir has taken place among the poli ticians iu New Hampshire ia consequence of a letter of Mr. John Atwood, the democratic candidate for Governor., t<* die free sailers, in favor of a “repeal or essential modification'' of the fugitive slave law.— He publishes a second letter explaining that the first was but r rough draft which he had under consider ation. but finally concluded not to make any reply to the tree Boilers; some parties into whose handshe had put it, published R without his consent.

Total. |5p We gave an account in our paper yesterday, of the arrest of a Fugitive Slave in Philadelphia, wtfo as, (to the credit of the city ot Brotherly Love be it said,) promptly surrendered to his owner. By the following extract from a Philadelphia letter ill the Baltimore Sun, it will be aeen thnt there was u futal mistake in the proceedings. The letter says— The friends of the alleged fugitive slave are re joiced to learn that he proves to be not the man, and ina been sent back by his reputed owner. Commis sioner Ingraham acted entirely too precipitate in this case, and contrary to the opinions of all the disinter ested listeners atthe hearing. The desire to do justice to the South has induced him to go further than the slave-owners desire and at thesumetim net with great injustice towards a free man. The evidence was so frivolous, and complete ly contradicted by that lor the prisoner, that his de cision was a matter of astonishment. The abolition society which oversees these cases will doubtless see that prosecutions nre commenced against the outrage committed by the men who captured him. The prisoner stated, when before the c mmissioner, that jo was talking with tho real fugitive about two min utes before lie was arrested, and it is therefore but natural that the Simon Pure lias taken the aimm and put otf to a place of refuge. Distressing Itailrond Accident. Columbia. Dee. 24, 10 p. m. The cars that left here this morning ou the Char lotte Road for Winnsboro with twetuy passengers, had just entered on the'ressel-w&rk at Elkin's Mill, distant about ten miles, when something was discov ered to be wrong. The Engine halted, when the two ends of the cross-ties of the tressel-work guve way and the train was precipitated about thirty b into the Millpond. All the passengers were more less injured. Mr. Nicholas Gibson, the D pot Agi at Winnsboro, nud an infant: of Mr nnd Mrs Powell died from the injuries received. A servant girl Mr. Lyles was drowned, Gen.Ewon had an arm dis located, an i received a cut in the forehead. The breuklock to the tront wheel of the truck had become detached from some unknown cause, and lodged in front of the wheel on the iron rail and this caused the cars to he thrown from the track with tho fatal result. The tressel-work received uo injury and two trains have since passed over it. .Tfi —The N.O. Picayune says a ;ing to Messrs.
