The ladies of the City ol Sa vannah generally are invited to be present and participate. ___ Lost Child.—A little girl, neatly dressed, and about four years of age, we are informed by a gentleman, was picked up by some col ored woman, about 7 o’clock last evening, near the square south of the Catholic Asylum. The little wanderer was so frightened aud sobbed so heavily that she was unable to tell her name or to say anything that would lead to a knowledge of either her parents or hei home. Our humane informant, who instruct ed (he woman where to take the child for se curity, bids us say that, should she not have reached her home by this morning, he will as sist in her recovery# Her parents can call st this office and obtain his name. The Ogeechee Flank Road.—Wo are pleased to learn that this much needed road has been finished to its terminus, seven miles from the city. The directors of the company deserve much credit for the energy with which they have pushed forward the work to its com pletion as well as for the suporior manner in which it has been constructed. As a pleasure drive the road, especially at this’season, is very inviting, while it will greatly facilitate the business intercourse of town end couqtry. A half share in the steamship Isabel, which originally cost $3442, was sold iu Charleston, on Thursday, at auction by Louis D. Desausbure, by order of the executors of * an estute, for $2185. The Isabel is said to be in excellent conditiou, and recently paid a div- idont of fourteen per cent. -From Col. London Quarterly Review W.

EP There is a roost tasteful combination of the elegant and useful exhibited in the Piano Cover advertised to be rafllod for in the ** New?' of this morning. It is the handiwork of a lady of Columbus, and as a specimen of embossed work, certainly equals (so far as we cau judge) anything of the kind we have ever noticed. It is placed with the list for names, at the store of Messrs. Zogbautn & Co., where it may bo seen to-day, in tho use it is designed to serve—vi%: covering a beautiful piano BT The railroad bridge at Salmon Falls was destroyed by fire on Tuesday last.

Yeeierdsy the^avonnih Fire Company paraded and woe reviewed by Hts Honor the Major and the Chairmen of ihe Fire and Water Comroitteo of Council. It ie a subject for extreme gratification to our eltixem to wilnee# 10 imposing a display of real .lamina and solid worth as this parade afforded. Some four hundred stout lellowe— the pick of the colored population, devoted to ihe protection of tho city from the ravages of (lie devouring element,—gaily dressed, steadily marching, and cheerfully and enthusiastically chanting their peculiar refrains, ie an exliibi lion peculiar to ua, and a just cause for that lading of prido which springe from the evi dences of patriotic feeling in every class of the community. It is seldom that so athletic and healthy looking a body of men can be found, and in the clnas of the community to which they belong, they ero certainly without a parallel in any other couulry. Their engines, lanterns, torches, &.C., were gaily and most tastefully arrayed in froali flowor. and ribbons, and the men themselves all uniformed according to the diess adopted by their respective companies. The line was formed an the green, west of the old cemetery, end consisted of seven en gines, two suctions, one general hoso-esrt, one bucket company, and one hook and ladder and axe company. They marched directly to Bay street, and up Bay street to Barnard. The light of the Hue rested hero and the left touch ed Drayton street. After being reviewed by the Mayor thoy were dismissed, and returned to their rcspcc live quarters, singing ns they went, that they would “ Wait for tho WAgon And wo’ll all take a ride.” a resolution which wo doubt very much tlicir keeping, when next thoy hear the alarm bell. Among tho incidents of the day was the presentation to Captain \Vi i.tberger of a very beautiful cake by Suction A. This company being about to remove their quarters from Monument Square, and the immediate vicini ty of tho Fulaski House, availed thomselves of their Gala day (o pay this very handsome compliment to Capt. W. ere they ceased to bo bis neighbors. Capt. Barron, of Brown Co., No. 4, was tho recipient of a highly complimentary testi monial, in tho form of a chaste and beautiful Silver Uoblet and .Salvor, from his Company. The Goblot was inscribed, “Prosonied to James A. Bahiion, by Brown Fire Company No. 4, 3d Anniversary,' Muy 27ih, 1853.” Captain Barron presented to a member of his Company a Silver Modal, inscribed, “Presented to Edward Taylor by Captain James A. Barron, for being tho most expedi tious man to tho Lngine House in 1852.” On the reverse was a Fire Eugino with the motto of the Company, “ Always Ready,” above it. Taylor’s Premium Cotton Ginn. Among the first shipments of freight from Columbus to this city, were three car loads of Cotton Gins from the extensive Manufactory of Messrs. E. T. Taylor & Co. This firm have for some time past, had in operution in Columbus one of the largest manufactories of Cotton Gins in the country, and their ma chines srejustly celebrated for their superiori ty over all others. Among those shipped by railroad to this city, is a highly finished gin, built for Ex-Governor Hammond, of South Carolina, which wo had the pleasure of in specting at the ware-room of Wm. P. Yonge, Esq., Agent for the manufacturers in Savan nah. Speaking of this Gin, the Republican of Thursday, says: “This Gin has fifty saws, and combines every valuable improvement which has been made, since the invention by Whitney, of this indispensable plantation appendage. As far as we could determine, the construction, in all its parts, is most perfect and oxact, the work manship reflecting the highest credit upon the makers. The latest improvements we notice, were, a brass screw fixed at the end of the saw cylinder, to regulate the saws so as to prevent friction against tho ribs; and also, a loose or moveable fly-wheel, so arranged that the band of the brushes can be regulated with out cutting or splicing, as by the old method.” Messrs. Taylor & Co., we understand, are supplying a large portion ol the Southern country with their Gins, which have taken premiums at some twenty Fairs and Agricul tural Exhibitions. Cotton ginned by one of their Gin’s took the premium at the last fair of the Mouth Carolina Institute at Charleston. We would suggest to our planting friends, visiting the city to examine these Gins, at the Counting House of Mr. Yonge, who is prepar ed to supply them on the shortest notice, and deliver thorn at any point to which they may bo ordered. Messrs. Taylor & Co., also manufacture very superior Straw Cutters, for the sale of which Mr. C. U. Camp yield of this city is their Agent. The Disputed Valley.—Tho Washington Union says that the title to tho valley of tho Moailla should be considered calmly and dis passionately, and that a proper application of scientific principles alone can maik the appro priate line. $3** Charles Levi Woodbury, set down Charge to Bolivia, hoc declined the appoint* menu The French government bes communicated to the American minister at that court • decree of the Emperor, ordering a Universal exhibi* . jpf- egriculturai and manufacturing pro 's to take place at Paris on the 1st of Beware of Counterfeit Gold Coins.— The Charleston Courier of yesterday says: We understand that a counterfoil $5 gold piece was recently offered at a store iu this city, well calculated to decoive the unwary. It was morked with tho letter D. The dio was appar ently perfect, with the exception that the etuis opposite the face wero less prominent than they aro in the genuine issue of Uncle Sam. The ring was also dull, and it sounded as though it were cased. Tho weiglfl was light and it looked bright and new, and the rim was well impressed. The year was 1852 or 1853; the party to whom it was oll'ered not remem bering exactly. The Weather mid the Crops* Tho Cartcraville Standard of Thursday sys: Tho weather for several days of the past week was quite cool, and one morning there wus frost. A Mr. Towers, wo think, in the neighborhood of Cartcrsville, having left out a featherbed, gathered from it a ball of frost, as large as one’s fist, which remained as lute as "1 o'clock. In regard to crops in our county and in this section, generally, we think they are rather promising than otherwise. The wheat was nover, perhaps, better, and but seldor good. NVe note a fow instances where worm has destroyed more tliuti one staud of corn ; and also his appearance is noticed, to o limited exteud, on the cotton. We have visit* ed recently, most of the coun'.ies in Uppei Georgia, and the prospect for a good wheat crop is very flattering. No disease has as yet affected the crop, and it is now so noariy ripe that it is considered out of danger—so we look with certainty to an abundant harvest. The Griffin Jeffersonian of the same date says— From every part of tho State we have the cry of Dry Weather, but mostly from the eastern section of it. The crops are conse quently suffering for want of rain.—Wheal and oats had mostly matured before the drought set in, aud will tnre out well; but corn aud cotton are suffering.—VV« hod a sprinkle here on Monday night, but it did uot Interesting from South America. The Fanstna Herald, of the 6th Inst., gives the following summary Bolivia appears to be getting herself daily Gioru doeply into disputes with “ the balance of mankind,” and has lately engaged in a very pretty little quarrel with the British and United States ministers, relative to a Mr. Cun ningham, an American citizen,raanaginginaii of an English mercantile establishment at Coro- coro. It appears that during Mr. C.'s absence, some officials (for some cause unexplained) en tered his-house forcibly, and carried ofT every article thoy could And. Col. J. A. Lloyd, H. B. M.’s Charge d’AfTaires, remonstrated; whereupon Sr. Bustillo, Secretary pf State for Foreign Affairs, writes him a most impertinent letter, very plainly telling him to mind his own business, and to bless his stars that English men and other foreigners are permitted to live at ull in the free and enlighteued republic of Bolivia, there to enjoy all tho blessings of civi lization and good laws. Tho papers also con tain a letter from Ciiuniughatn to the aforesaid Sr. Bustillo, in which ho repels the charge of immorality brought against him by the minis ter, who he says is guilty himself of robbing widows at Fotosi, and committing bigamy in La Faz. A movement in favor of Gen. Santa Cruz was to have tnkeu place on tho 21st <.f March, among the military iu Ln Faz; but the plot discovered by a sergeant, to whom the f ;overnincnt gave a reward of six thousand dot- ars. Tho (’resident of Feru has issued a most important decree relative to the navigation of the Amazon, and offering the greatest eneour- ugemont to settlers—such as exemption from export and import duties, grants of lund. and freedom from taxation for twenty years, the free grant of seed, implements for cultivating the land, &c., &e. The exploration of tho branches of the Amazon in i'eru will ho made by government steamers, provided expressly for tho scrvico. The dispute between Bolivia and Feru has assumed nt last a serious form. Feru having resorted to reprisals on Bolivian commerce. Litter from Jnuintca. Dates from Kingston to the 18th iust. have been received nt New York. The yellow fever was still raging at Kings- ii. Since it made its first appcarunco in the city os heretofore, it lias been confined entire ly to the shipping, among which it has made sad havoc. As yet, few of the old residents d with it. Those who aro not accli mated ore its first victims. Tho (Jolouial Legislature was having quite tiino. The House had met and iloclared Kingston a freo port, which enraged the Gov ernor very much. On the 17th, Sir Charles Gray, Governor of the Island, delivered his speech, which gave so inncli dissatisfaction tluit Mr. Binslee,ono ol the members, gave notice that ho should move lor n committee to request her Majesty lore- move Sir Charles from tho island, which, of course, lie did not listen to, as his salary is $10,00U per unnum. It was supposed that the Governor would dissolve tho Houso the next day, which he has tho power to do. New York Crystal Palace Exhibition. Tho New York papers begin to manifest some little fceling’in consequence of tho delay in opening the Crystul l'alucc Exhibition. It is generally conceded that it cannot bo open ed much, if at all, before the 1st of July, while many beliove it will have to be postponed un til the 181 of August. The Mirror says: “There are thousands of strangers now in this city who have been waiting for the ’open ing, since tho 1st of may, and who are any thing but pleased at the' unaccountable delay. Some are ungenerous enough to pronounce it a trick on the part of tho hotel keepeis, who have colluded with tho managers of the exhi bition in order to fill up the daily increasing hotel accommodations. Whatever may be the cause of the delav, it is certainly very annoy ing to parties who have come from foreign countries, and from remote parts of tho Unit* ed States, in order to be here at the opening ceremony, and who, judging from present ap pearances, will have to return to their homes with only an outside view of the unfinished building. The least tho committee who have the* Palace’ in charge should do is to publish a statement explanatory of the impediments which* occasion tho delay, and fix upon some definite time for the completion of the build* ing.” • Crystal Falace stock dcSincd 7£ per cent, on Monduy, as compared wLh previous sales. It is said the repeated delays in the work, and the immoral character the neighborhood is rapidly acquiring, aro employed with great success by the Bears to spoil it by an invest ment. + An American Vessel Searched.—The American ship Glentarmer, Captain Chap man, from Jamaica, bound for Australia, with a cargo of ruin, and ono hundred and seven passengers, out twenty-three days, put into St. George’s on tho 3d ins!., wanting water, where she was searched, at tho instance of Lieut Colonel Rohe, R. A., information having been received by him that a man of the artillery corpB had deserted at Jamaica, and was be lieved to bo on board the Glentarmer. Cap- taiu Chapman str^pgly protested, and sooner than submit to the outrage, resigned his com mand of the vessel. The search however was made, but the man was not found. Church Struck by Lightning.—The Congregational Church at Lockport, wus struck by 1 ginning, on Sunday afternoon du ring service, it entered the gallery occupied by the singers, instantly killing Luther^^ Crocker, one of tho choir, and injuring oth* era, three of whom are ladies. Cunoteruation and dismay seized on all the congregation at the sudden and awful evout; and the Rev Mr. Gillman, who, from the pulpit, beheld the full effect of the calamity, fainted away. The shock whs terrific, and its effect for several minutes rendered every porson powerless.- The steeple was much shivered. The injured parties were much burned, but all except one are doing well. ibe Stmt* of Georgia. remarkable snort pamaoc. The steamship State of Georgia, Capt.

A letter from St. Petersburg, of April 5th, says:—There is much talk in the beet informed circles, of a secret mission of a Rus sian envoy sent to China overland, and who it said, has already arrived at Kiathg. It was confidently reported that the object of his mis sion was to offer to the Sovereign of the Celes tial Empire the aid of Russia in quelling the insurrection in his dominions. Death of a Soldier.—Late California pa pers notice the death, iu Sonoma, on the 15th of April, of apoplexy, M. Levendroski, a na tive of Poland, aged about 60 years. Mr. L. served under Napoleon Bunaparte, and was iu tho Russian campaign of 1812. He subse quently served a number of years in the U. S. army ; was in the Sominole aud Mexican wars, and but lately discharged here. 0T A correspondent of the Netv Orleans Bulletin, speaking of the late railroad accident at Norwalk, says— Ono significant (net has been evolved in the course of the enquiries, and it is that engineers and firemen practicejumping from the locomo tive, and become exceedingly expert at it. The principle is to jump forward with a plunge of the heels, nud the head with a de cidedly backward inclination.

Whig oflbeSlel inst., says— There has been quite a change in the weather for the last two days. Yesterday mpraiuga wind came down from the North so dulling as to render winter clothing iadis- pensablo to comfort. Last night seemed al most coo! enough for frost.—The weather continues unusually dry and crops are suffer* ing much. A letter from Springfield, Georgia, written yesterday morning, states tbit It is so cold at that place, that fires are necessary for comfort. Stabbing.—Wm. Evans, of this place, on Monday evening last, in a drunken fit, and without provocation, we ere informed, made an attempt upon the life of Mr. Jsj.A. Mentor. He toflictei! several wounds upon bis person uot dangerous, however. Even# bee boon ar< New-York, May 24.—Great l ire in Brook lyn.—A lire broko out this morning in Brook ivn, opposite tho City Hull, which before the flumes could be arrested, destroyed every buildiug, (abovo 344 on Fulton and 276 on Adams streets,) to the intersection* of those streets, with Williamsburg street. The block with the exception of six houses, frames, on the lower corner of Adams, and seven large stores on the lower corner of Fulton, and ten dwellings fronting on Myrtle Avenue, was de stroyed. Thero are probably fifty houses, stores, &c., in ashes. Tho loss is probably $125,000, on which thero is u partial insur* unco. The N. Y. Herald estimates the loss at on* ly $50,000. The fire, it issupsosed, was the work of de* sign, and the two brothers who occupied No. 559 have been arrested on the charge, er A fire occurred iu Kuckiuud, Muiue, i Sunday last, which consumed twenty three stores, eight dwelling houses—including the only hotel in the place—three law offices, two dentists’ and two physicians’ offices, two barbers’ shops, two livery stables, and seven other buildings. The total loss is estimated at $100,000 to $175,000. 9** A fire occurred iu Buliuuore on Tues day night last, which destroyed the large Flour warehouse of Jesse Mittard, at the northwest corner of Howard and Pratt streets. About four thousand barrels of flour were consumed. Some buildings adjoining wero consumed, The loss is estimated at $30,000. For Liberia. Near one hundred Negroes passed tlirougli this city yesterday, ou their way to Libeiiu Most of them were stout hearty looking fel lows, and would command from eight to ten hundred dollars. They were nearly all from Philadelphia, Tcnn., and its vicinity. We think those gentlemeu who are sending them offcould have disposed of tboin to more advan tage, by distributing thorn among their neigh hors; we would have taken fifteen or twenty rather than to have becu considered nice about it. We are opposed to this mode of aiding, by Southern people, the accomplishment of aboli tion scheinee.—SJaltou (Geo.) Times. Savannah.—The liberal expenditures made by the people of Savannah on public works, have placed that city in a commanding position Her enterprise is receiving its deserved re ward in rapid growth and increasing busiuesB We refer to an article from the News, on Sa vannah and Railroads, and to the recent sub scription of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the improvement of the Savannah river, as some evidence of what the city has done and ie doiog for herself and for the Slate.

The capital invosted and owned by the Chinese in tho State, is ono million dollars. The American Association for the Advance- mont of Science will hold its next meeting at Cleveland, Ohio, on the 28th of July. The value of tho Neck lands, owned by the eity of Boston, is upwards of two millions of dollais. Stephen Girnrd’s birth day was celebrated last Saturday in Fliiladelphia by the scholars f Girard College. Philadelphia Steamship Line to Charleston.—Tho North American learns that tho committee appointed recently, at n public meeting of citizens of Philadelphia, to raise a certain amount of capital to build and equip a first class steamer lor tho trade be tween Charleston and Philadelphia, have al ready nearly completed their task. Two hun dred thousand dollars was the sum required, of which one hundred and seventy-five have already been subscribed. A few days will doubtless suffice to secure the remaining twenty-live thousand, when the contract for the construction of the vessel will be con* eluded. Rock or Bas» Fishing Extraordinary.— Mr. Crumpton, the British Minister, and Mr. Lanmau, captured, with hook and liue, at the Little Fulls of (he Fotoiuac, on Monday mor ning, about two hundred and fifty pounds of this excellent flesh. Tho total number was sixty-four, tho largest weighing nearly twelve rounds, and all caught within two hours, aud from one single rock. This is said to be the best sport which has been experienced at the Littlo Falla fur ten years past. This is a “fish story” to which the Union testifies; for some of (lie fish the editor had the satisfiaction of en joying, and the largest the polite anglers pre sented to the President. BP The Presbyterian Historical Society, organized by tho Old School Presbyterian General Assembly at its session in Charleston lust year, held its first anniversary at Philadel phia a few evenings sines. By the annual re- K ort, it appears that the Executive Committee ave adopted measures to establish a library without delay, for which a considerable num ber of volumes are already obtained ; to pub lish, if subscriptions enough can be obtained, a history of the Presbyterian Church, by the Rev. Richard Webster; to address a circular to the Presbyteries; and they have appointed a sub-committee to collect the materials of the current history of the Church. They have also appointed Samuel Agnew, Librarian. Charles Granry, agod 20, died at the New York City Hospital on Monday, from a wound inflicted on Saturday night by his brother, aged 16 years. The latter was intoxicated when he inflicted the blow. Charles, at the time, was endcavroing to take him in the house. Hon. Robert G. Campbell, formerly a mem ber of tho New York Assembly, and latterly private secretary to Ex-President Fillmore, died on Saturday at New York, He was but 28 years of a^c. A Primitive Bear Blghti A story has been told us, says the Auburn (N. Y,) Journal, that when this place present ed only four corners, and not a dozen log hou ses graced the country for miles around, a Dutch family living near the creek used to do their washing on the bank of ihe stream, and fur thispurposo had a large iron kettle suspend ed from a crowbar, whjph rested on two crotch sticks drove into the ground. One bright Mon day morning,when all tho womenfolks through out the country take it upon themselves to raise the steam from the wash-tub, and thump, rub, and scold over dirty linen, suds and hot water, two bouncing lasBcs belonging to the family commenced operations in washing ou a level spot near the bed of thr- crock, with the high bank above them. The old iron kettle was full of bubbling, boiliug water, when one of them discovered a huge bear descending the opposite bank, making directly for them. He soon entored the stream, and was carried by the current, ere he crossed, some abort dis tance below them. The girls, knowing, how ever,that they wouldnot have time to climb the bank and get to the house before he would overtake them, resolved to stand their ground, oud give him battle, should be attempt to mo lest them ; and soon their resolution was put to the test, for Bruin, after landing, stood a mo ment and shook the water from his shaggy skin, and then came slowly towards them. Withea'di of them a wooden noggin in their hands, they retreated to where their boiling water was, and ensconced themselves by the side ofthe hot fountain. Ho approached slow ly, smelling and growling along, and had come to within a few feet of where they were, when both of them dipped their dishes in the boiliug water nud gave him a stream which drenched his head and ears, scalding, as it struck, with such effect as to cause his bearship to turn tail and retreat—not. however, before a second sheet of tho boiling liquid deluged him again, which was followed up with a third, as he inode tracks from them as fast as possible for o crossing place of the creek, roariug out with actual pain from the warm reception he had met with in his first visit to the girls. Some few weeks after, the father of these Amazons of hot auds and rinsing water killed a bear in the neighborhood, whose head was as clear of hair as a dressed porker—no doubt the same which had paid the visit to his daughters.

Rev. Stephen Elliott, D. D, Rev. and Dear Sir:—I am informed that in Ihe discourses preached by you last Sun day, in Christ Church, you took occasion to make some assertions respecting the distinctive doctrines of Unitarionisin. If your remarks have been correctly represented to me, 1 sin cerely regret that misunderstanding of our views has led you into misrepresentations, which, I am sure, must be as painful tor you to make, ns they aro unjust to those af whom you made them. As 1 have no reason to quea tion the intelligence of those who infermed me of the nature of your discourses, 1 am led to infer that I have been correctly informed. Not having the pleasure of a personal ac quaintance with you, I trust that you will par don this public communication. Occupying as you do, an exalted station in the church, to which you have beeu raised by your eminent qualifications and superior moral worth, I trust you will not think me too presumptuous iu seeking that information which you alone can best give. Fresuming that you, equally with myself, are seeking the truth, and that if con vinced of doing us injustice in your discourses, you will gladly do us justice in as public a manner, 1 jake the liberty,—you will pardon me, Sir, if it is too great a liberty—of request ing you to give your discourses to tho public, through the medium of any one of our city pa pers ; either of which, I doubt not, will gludly lend their columns for that purpose. Shou|d this course not coincide with your inclination, I respectfully ask that you will publish such parts of your discourses as will enable me ful ly to understand the views you have express ed, and which, 1 doubt not, you honestly enter tain. Another object which I have in view, in this communication, is, if possible, with your aid, to enter into such investigations and to pursue such inquiries as will tend to the development of the truth. Ij Unitarians are in error, I know that you would gladly bo tho means of enlight ening them. And I assure you, Sir, that, for one, I should thank you for such light no it is in your power to import. I neither seek nor hope to lead you or others into the adoption of Unitarian views. I have a higher purposo, even than that. 1 seek only that justice may bo done to iliut body of Christians, who, du ring their existence as u denomination, have met with obloquy aud misrepresentation from their fellow Christians of other and more po pular faiths. I have, therefore, taken the liberty of thus addressing you, from the belief, that you wholly tuisuuderstand the views of Uni tarians, and that, iu consequence of that mis understanding, you mislead others to whom it is your province, as it is your pleasure, to minister. Believing also, that by an honest and impartial discussion of some of the lead ing points of difference between Trinitarian and Unitarian Christians, much good will re sult to all, uot the least of which will be the cultivation in this community, of that Chris tian charity, “ which rejoiceth not iu iniquity, but which rejoiceth in the truth,” I invite you to a doctrinal discussion, at such a time, and through such a medium, os will bo most con venient and agrocablo to yourself.
