The purpose is also to have a full sad general meeting of the mer chants of Baltimore oo Friday evening next, at the same place, to bear what has finally been aceom pliahed.

TtfeBoard of Directors of Iho Planter's Bank also doclared a dividend yesterday of five per cent. Incidents of the Regatta. On our first page we give a hurried sketch of the race walerdiiy. Among other incidents of the re- g ata^picb the haste of preparing the matter for our evening edition preveuted us fkrom noticing, is the giving way of tho temporury bridge across the canal near Lamar's press. On this bridge a large num ber, between fifty end a hundred, persons had taken position to seo tho coming out of the boats, when in tbe midst of the excitemeut it gave way, precipitut- injilte crowd, among whom ware soveral small boys, white and black, into tbe wator, which wusthe tide being up, between six and eight feet deep. For a few moiueuts the struggling mass, in their efforts to extricate themselves, afforded what might be considered a very fair mimic representation of Pharaoh aud his hosto in the Rod Sea. Crowd ed as they Were together, and each desporately striving to save bimsslf thoso who could swiiu who, were uo better offtliun those who could uot, and in their fVight, grasped hold of the first log or arm, coat-tail or heud of hair, that came in their reach. In this way persons were drawn under sovorul times before tlioy gained the wharf. For a brief time tbe locality presented a very busy aud ox- citing scene, aud not a little approhention was felt by the spectators. Wo aro happy to stale however, that all thq submerged reached terru Jirma in safely, with only the loss of bats, caps, Ac. The news of the disaster having sprad, quito a panic was produced among anxious mothers; who knew their children were out, but did not havo them in view at the moment. Notwith standing no one was kuowu to bo missing it was feared that some person had been drowned, aa ap- prebeusion that was ouly removed by a thorough search,which was made by Rev. Mr. GkorgkClark of St.Johns Church, who entered tho water for that purpose and by persoual examination aatisfied him self that no lives had been lost. It was not until aftor Ibis fact had been well es tablished that these who witnessed it and those who participated in the cold duck wero enabled to etijoy the, ludicroususss of the incident. ht Our attention lus boon called to the fact that yesterday, during the Regatta, the wbarvee iu the vicinity were rendered dangerous by the number of runaway horses aud* carts that were dashing about in every direction under the Bluff, having bens abandoned hy the drivers, who were spectatora of the race. It has been suggested that measures should be taken to prevent the recurrence of the same thing to-day. It would be woll for officers of the city to see that horses are noi left to run at large on such occasions, endangering the lives and iiiubs of our citizens. The Regatta To-Day. The Executive Committee appuUited the follow ing gentlemen to superintend the races to-day : Starting Judges.—Mn). Wm. P. Bowen, Thos. J. Walsh, J. J. Kelly, Esqrs. Coming out Judges.—C. A. L.

John Jay, Lucy Stone and others. These, remarks the Express, embraces some of the ablest Abolition ists of the North, and there is no doubt they will drew" well just uow, when " Freesoll" end "Nig- gars" are more then ever " ell the rage." While these arraugements are making in New York, we observe, that the campaign has ulrcady opened in Philadelphia. The celobration of the so- called Second Decade Anniversaries bfihi Aiueri* Anti-Slavery Society, was to be cclobrated- tbere on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, at the Hen Street Hall. Garrisou, Edmund Quincy, C. C. Burleigh, L.Remond, Samuol J. May, Wendell Phillips, and others of like character, are tho speak- ■ expected tobe present on the occasion. GP* Captain Willey, of tbe steamer Florida from Jacksonville, Fla., has sent to the Charleston Courier office a stock of Black Sea Island Cotton, from a plantation about forty miles from Jackson ville, which measures 17 feet lu length. To be Garroted.—Tho murderer of the Span ish actress, at the Tacon Theatre, has been senteuc- od to the garrote. The Mexican News.—aT’usuuI, the principal topics discussed by the Mexiceu papers, are the de predations and murders committed by the Indians along the frontier States. Tales of horriblo outra ges of which these miscreants are daily guilty, fill the press, while the wretched inhabitants seem power less to holp themselves, end do little else than clamo r for government aid, which has but little effect, how. tbe government being eonally powerless with the inhabitauia. Tbe cholera, too, still continues its ravages in several of the States—this, added to the tnurdors end robberlea almost hourly committed, sums up the usual deplorable picture presented of the condition of this unhappy country, by every luter ar rival. L^* The jewuli citizens of Albany liuve held a meeting to expross their indignation at "(be late alro. cioue, tyrannical and arbitrary act of Francis Jo- ph, of Austria, by which he has deprived 70(1,000 or his Jewish subjects of the unalienable rights of " They adopted a long series of resolutions, in the preamble to which they say that in consequence of that cruel and despotic decree of tho Austrian ty- Ihe Jewish Bankers of Londou, viz: Messrs. Adam Spielnian A Co, Baum A Co., Moateau* Brothers, and Abraham Uaner A Co. have agreed d deal iu Austrian Btate stocks, and a Jewish mcnibor of the Stock Exchange has also thrown u lurgo quantity of Austrian stock on tbo market "us uot worth keoping." This example they urgo nil friends of religiou and political liberty to follow throughout the world. A Warning and a Tbrcnt. The editor of the New York Ezprete ia very much iucensed at the Democracy of the 8outh, because they have manifested an unwillingness to taken part.in the New York 8hell controversy. He thinks that tho Southern Democrats have had ebundaut provocation to induce them to kick up a terrible muse—if not to diiaolve the Uuion at least burst up tho Democratic party—aad is loud in his expressions of surpriso nt their blmduess and docil ity. He warns them of the evil that is to come of their suicidal course. "Oh,'* says he, "how tho Southern mock and silly Democracy is rolling up the whirlwind in its traitorous aud mean counectiou with the Northern Abolitionists t We who have the Pacific now consecrated to "freeaoil," loosened from the contra's of the Compromise Bills, can conquer more and more of Territory yet, more and to extend the area of African, as well as Anglo-Saxon freedom." Fugitive Slaves.—A Montreal paper incut ions the arrival on that sido of the water, within a day two, of a man aud his wife from Now-Orleans, several from Missouri, some from Kentucky, Vir- giuia, and three from South Caroline. Iu addition to the above, it has heard from the Amherstburg de pot, where a still larger lot of ibis description o 1 freight bus been received during the week. I From the Charleston Courier.] From Columbia* Columbia, Dec. 5. Monday being College conuuuncemuui little bust- n*>*a waa transacted in either brauch of the Legis lature.

R.Tarber, Esq., juulor proprietor and editor of the Charleston Mercury. It is an able ad dress and well delivered, and tbe selection of Mr. Tarber as tbeir orator, reflected great credit oi judgment of his class.

Commercial Advertiser pub* linhes the following synopsis of tbe decree drawn up by Judge McLeau, iu tbe Methodist Church case The Commissioners of the Methodist Episcopal Church retain all the property belonging to the Book Concern, iucludiug tbe depositories at Boston, Pittsburgh, aud Charleston, S.C., with the paper* at Auburn and Pittsburgh, aud pay to the Contrail- utouer* of tho Methodist Episcopal Church, South, their pro rkla uivideod, Amouutiog to the sum of ajjg Qgo 59 Aud for their interest in tbe above proper- ’ ty tbeeutuof.; 131,937 41 Whole amoupt to be paid tbe 8outb$l91,000 00 Tbe South rotain their iiewsurnef presses with about $40,000 iu old note* and hook accounts, within the bounds of tbe Methodist Episcopal Church South.

[for the Dally Morning News.] * Hurts mm Is Medical College, Messrs. Editors:—Tho Faculty of the 8avannah Medical College at th* commencement of their ca reer formed the determination scrupulously to avoid all newspaper controversies, and to disregard whet aver sqiba or lampoons might perchance be let off against them, knowing full well that however anx ious they might feel to pursue a straight lor ward, up right course, they could not hope to eecape entirely IA* carpinge of cavxlers. To this determination they have adhered until thia time, and they still feel 'every disposition to continue in this cour/w; but, when fklsehood and misrepresentation are invoked for the purpose of placing them in a false position before the coramu nity, they ere convinced tbat they would be recreant to their duty to the public, as well as to themselves, were they by their silence apparently to acquiesce iu, or admit tbo truth of statements which can lay uo claim to the smallest semblance of truth. Of this character is an article which appeared in the "Georgia Citizen" of the 20th ult., dated Savan nah Nov. 31, 1853—a tisiue of reckless and bare faced misropreseutudon rarely equalled. Accordingly, tho Faculty have resolved so far to depart front Nte course which they had marked nut for themselves, as to permit two of tbrir number, who were living and practi»iog in Savatioah, at tho time of the application for the charter under which the College has been organized, and who wore cog nizant 01ill tho circumstances attending the applies tioti to tbe Legislature of 1838, to appear before the public over their oum proper signatures for the purpose of disabusing the minds of such as might have recoivod the impression which the writer of the article named designed to create. In compliauce then with this resolution of the Faculty, the undersigued hereby give a fiat and un qualified denial to the assertion that tho charter which was granted by tbe Act of the Legislature of 1838 has been " revoked." In proof of which, without adverting to the improbability that such gentlemen as Judges Berrien, L«w and Charlton, Col. Williams and Col. Jackson, would have con sented to act under a "revoked" charter, in first elect ing two individuals to fill the vacancies in their Board occasioned by death—and then electing eight other individuals to fill Professorial chairs— with out adverting to the absurdity of such a supposi tion. any person who will take tlm trouble to read the Act of 1838, and who can understand plain common sense English, can satisfy himself that tills Act conferred ou the Trustees a charter without limit, aud that as nosubsequent Act has beeu passed ia relation to this matter, (ho charier is not " re voked;" but remains in full force, conferring on the Collage which lias now been organized under it, all the rights aud privileges which it origiually pro posed. Wo leave it to tho intelligence of every reader of Iho article which has brought u« before the pub lic, to estimate ut ita true value, the puerile incon sistency, of first avering that the present organiza tion of the College, is under 11 spurious cliurter—a chnrter which has been " revoked;" and then grave ly to enter into an elaborate expose of the course which certain medical men of the city were per suaded to pursue, in the way of protest, ugaiiut graining to the applicants this " revoked" charter, without the permission of all who had an equul claim to it. If spurious aud "revoked" why so much difficulty to assert their claim toitf Aud " it is due to frankness" to state, what this excessively frank writer lias neglected to do (" pos sibly" through forgetfulness) that one or more of Iho names which wore appended to that protest, were so uppendud, without the authority of the in dividuals to whom they belonged—and that this one or more individuals were not a little dissatisfied at the liberty which bad been taken with them. It is true that tbe late Dr. Cairuthers took a very active part in forwarding the application for the charter—ami it is equally truo that he proposed to associate with hitiiseU iu the professional chairs, cnrtiiu physicians of this city, among the number of whom, were tho undersigned. Aud moreover (what seems to hnve beou r great stumbling block in tho way of the writer and others who Hunk with him that members of the faculty liavo no right to soals at tlio Board of Trustees) the late Dr. Wartug, who was appointed by the Act one of the Trustees, was designated by l)r. Ccrruthers as one of the Professors. It is uot true that the Trustee* were informed " that all opposition had been withdrawn"—the statement which was tnude to the Trustees, was " that the opposition still continued 011 the part of a few, hut that the majority of tho«e who had signed the protost, had withdrawn their opposition, and acquioic* d in the proposed arrangement." We liavo not taken the paius to ascerlaiu whether "the Faculty" are or " are not acceptable to the majority of the Profetsion ;" but as we have already convicted tho writer of several false statements, wn are inclined to think that this also may fall within the same category. Aa tho other remarks which go to fill up the ar ticle, do not concern un, wo cure uot to reply to them, our object having been accomplished by ex posing its misrepresentations. But if tb* author of the communication teals iucliticd to continue the " history of the Suvannnh Medical College" iu the name spirit of misrepresentation, with which he has commenced it, we hope that he will havM^e manli ness to do it under bis owu sigualurn.
