The American steamship Humboldt, which eailml from Southampton via Havre on Wednesday the . 23J nil., with four days later news from Europe,got tshore near Halifax, N. B., on Monday night last, and it is feared that she is not likely to be got off— Her position is dangerous, and it is thought that she will become a wreck. Her passengers are ail sufo, having succeeded in getting ashore. The uews by this arrival, in consequence of the accident lo tho steamship, cannot be transmitted to night. Lntor from Ilnvnnn.

The members of the Savanuah Aquatic Club, to which we are indebted for tho fete which has im parted so much life and animation to our city during the past two days, closed tholr meeting with a din ner at Oglethorpe Hall, last eveniug. The dinner, which was furnished by J. Mr. McK Codv, was well 'and liberally provided and handsomely served.— The Club, with a few invited guests, spent a couple of hours in social and convivial intercourse, during which several appropriate speeches and sentiments were delivered. Thus closed the second annual meeting of the Sa ji Vtunah Aquatic Club, whose first regatta has been everg way successful, fully realizing the expectations of the public. From the spirit manifested by the members of the Club, and the lively interest takeu by our citizens of all classes in the regatta which - has Just dosed, we aro led to anticipate a still i interesting meeting next your. An interest has been croated in aquatic oxercises which will loug survive, uud which while it will servo to briug together tho citizens of the Georgin seaboard in friondiy rivalry, will bring into fullor exercise that superior skill und science which has already given the Empire Slate of the South a just claim to the title of "Queen of the Waves." * Too much praise cannot be bestowed on Committee who have had the arrangement of the a d'ttili of the ala IRigailo. To tholr admirable m anageiftent 'he Club are iudebted for the perfect aystem and good order which has prevailed through out. wP The 44 Narnia Jt.” There was much enquiry yesterday before tho second race, and much more after the result was known, in regard to the name ofthis boat. Who is " Borah E ?" was iu every mouth. The Sarah E., was built by R.T.GinsoN, Esq., and namod by him afret c young lady friend ot this city, but with a gallant delicncy he withheld tho entire name until the qualities of tho bout should bo tried and uuii) she proved herself worthy to bear the name of the lady whom he dosiguod to compliment. The race yesterday, in which sho was victor, established her claim to rank among the first of her sex, and she now bears the full name of Sarah Eliiabeth, iu compliment to Miss Sarah Elizaokth Riciiaru bonk, of this city. Dividend.—Tho directors of the Uankoftiavan. nah yeslordayuloc inrnd a dividend offour percent. from the profits of the bank for the last six months, payable on demaud. Cotillion Party.—It will be seen by reference to an advertisement in another column that a Cotil lion Party will como off at the Armory Hall this evoniog, which gentlemen are invited to attend. nr Our attention has been called to a law, in troduced into the Legislature by Mr. McDouoald, of Muscogee, to alter tho Jurisdiction of the Court of Commoo Pleas aud Oyer and Terminer ofSavaimuh the provisions of which, aro said to bo objectiona ble, on the ground that they bear with ospeclal sever ity upon buiiueas men of small means. Wo wilt ox- atniue the law to-morrow. For Liuxuia.—Tho brig U»i7F. Pierce cleared at Baltimore on the 5th inil., for Liberia, to touch at Savannah. The Madison Female College.—The adver tisement of this institution, iu auolher column, is worthy tbe uolice of those of onr readers who huve the high and important duly of tbe education of youug ladies devolviug upon them. Situated in a portion of the State remarkable for salubrity of climato, gpd its openness of access from all point*, it offers the advantages of health aud couveuieuce ; whilst its high reputation for the character aud a- bility of its professors, leave uothing to be desired which it does not possess, iu its several educational departments. Commercial Disaster.—The brig Fremont, Capt. Downs, from Charleston, with a cargo of lumber, for Baltimore, was blowu ashore on the 24lh ult.,on Girvin's Island. Tbe vessel was leaking aud tbe cargo was being landed at the date of the cap- tsdn'a letter—the 27lh ult. t? The South Caroliua Couforeace of the Me' •toodist church closed its sessiou on Thursday; $34, 000 was collected for missionary purposes. Hr Iu the South Curoliu* Seuato, on Tuesday, w Tbe Charleston aud Savanuah Railroad" Bill was passed. New Church in Macon.—Tbe Macou Mute*- ger of yesterdsy tsys:-The congregation of the Presbyterian Church of this city, we learu, design toereora new aud beautiful house of worship, the corner of Mulberry aud First-streeu, the plan of which has been selected. It will bo wheu built, the third large commodious and elogant church building which has been erected here witbiu a short time, aud will be an ornament to onr e ity, as well as evidence of the appreciation of our citizens of the value of the preached word. Loed Aberdeen.—The rumor that Lord Aber deen was about to resign, is without foundation. China—Our Commissioner to China has been in- siructed to take advantage of the affairs in China, to open and extend our commercial relations. Nothing definite is known yet, but tbe probabilities are that success will attend the effort. [communicated.] Mr. Editor »—You would confer a public favor y calling the attention of the Road Commissioners / f l . w tjOUnl >' the dangerous conditon of a small r age on the Great Ogcecheo, Road, near tbe en uii e stone.

V. fell into ulnl bur.l. of boiling beer, .bouton, o'clock, BaUrd.y last, and was not discovered till three hours after. All the beer was turned off into tho eewer iu the presence of a coroner’s jury. HP* The Washington correspondent ofthe Phila- delphia North American says : You may rely, p 0 v Lively, that no fishery treat/ has beeu agreed upon with the British Minister, notwithstanding tbe rail oration of tbe story; nor is there any more probabili ty of getting one now than there was months ago. The British demand impossibilities. Important from Mbxico.-A bearer of dispatches from Gtoeral Gadsden our Minister* in Mexico, Jim arrived iu Washington. They are said to con- . firm.IbO,report of the invasion ol La Paz, in Lower California, by the Sau Francisco Filibusters, in tbe brig Caroline. It is also stated that General Gadsden has ordered the United States Troops to suppress Che expedition, anl that a perfect under standing existed between President Santa Anna and General Gadsden on Dm subject. [From the Chnrlstton OmrisM Bynepete of the PresMsaPi ««»«*»• Baltimore, Dec. 6.3.55 P. M. Tbe first aunnal message of President Pierce, was delivered to-day to both Houses of Congress. Ho commences bv sayiug that the interest with which tbe people look to the assembling of Congross, and tbe frilfilment on that occasion of tho duty im posed on their new President, aro the best eviden ces of their capacity to realize the hopes of the founders ofthe government, as the sole reliance of this Confederacy isoa the justice and intelligence of the masses. The Country has abundant cause for thanksgiv ing to God for tbe many mercies showered upon the nation; thus recognising the wisdom of absolute re ligious toleration, as no secure reliance can be placed upon auy apparent progress unless sustained by national integrity, resting upon the truths of Revelation. With regard to our Diplomatic relations with for eign Powers, the President says they have undergone no change since the adjournment of the last Con gress, and that thoee now pending of u disturbing character will probably be amicably adjusted. Respecting the fishery question he says that tbe nited States never recognized the British construc tion ofthe treaty of 1818, and that with a new vinw of extending tbe rights of American fishermen aud regulating the trade between the United States nud the British American Possessions, negotiations had been opeued with a fair prospect of a favorable suit. In regard to the controversy upon the affairs iu Centraf America, he says that Great Britain has pro posed an amicable arrangement, and that our Min ister in London has consequently been instructed to enter into negotiations on tbe subject. He repre sents it as desirable that the Boundary line between the United Statos and the British American Pos sessions in the north west be traeed and marked. The relations with Franco are friendly, and a treaty of Commorce and Navigation is progressing. In regard to Cuba, he aaya, that he is happy to announce that since tho last Congress no unauthor ised expeditions hud boon fitted nut from tbe United States, and that should any such movements be un dertaken, be will suppress them by all tbe means in bis power. lie raters tq several annoying occurrences as hav ing takeu place at Havana, between our citizen* and Spanish subjects, aud says that prompt redress cannot be oblainod because diplomatic iutercoura* t allowed between the American Cousul and Captiiiii-Geunral, to avoid vexation aud delays; and that a proposition had been mado to provide for a direct appeal for redress from tho American Con- mi to the Captain General, which the Spanish Gov ernment had hitherto refused lo agreo lo; but that —ir Minister at Madrid Jud been instructed to iw the application. lie alto recommends a prompt adjustment with Spain of the claim for losses in tbe caso of the schr. A rails te ad. Concerning tho caso of Martin Koszta, he recap itulates the facts as sot forth in Mr. Marcy’s letter, and suys that tlm principles and policy thorein main tained, will be enforced wheuever proper occasion ay arise. Our Commissioner in China, he says, has boon in structed to avail himself of all occasions to extend our commercial relations with tlist aud othor Asi atic nations. He mentions Jbe arrival of Commodore Perry’t •quadrou on the coast of Japan, but stutes that he hat not ascertained the effect of tho expedition on the Emperor. He refers to the dispute with Mexico regarding the Mosilla Valley, and says tbut tho former Commis sioner ofthe United States mado an error in runnine boundary which was not binding on the United dtates, but as Mexico takes a different view ofthe subject, our Minister at that Cuurt had been in structed to negotiate upon that and other questions of magnitude now pending, but what progress has been made in the premima he does not know, hut hopes that an arrangement mutually satisfactory will be made in a spirit of liberality and friend- ship. Our Minister to Central America hat received a friendly recepion at St. Juan de Nicaragua. Our Minister to Brazil has beeu instructed to in duce that Government to abate its restrictive policy in regard to the navigation of the Arnazou, as Para guay and the Argentine Gonfederatirnthave openud their navigable rivers, lie says, howover, that treaties on the subject will be submitted to tho Measures have lieon taken, aays, to remove tho difficulty now experienced hi obtaining guano, and that it is believed that the Peruvian government have made an indemnity for the rccout outrage at the Cliiuchu Islands. He refers to the expansion in territorial extent, and the increased happiness and prosperity of our country, and endorses the doctrines of bt*u Rights and the strict limitation ofthe powers or the Fede ral Government. Tho revenue of the country, he states lo be in creasing beyond either the interest or prospective wants of the country, it amounting for tbe year euding Juuo 30th, 1853, to nearly $50,000,000 from Customs, and $3,500,00 from public luuds, Ac. The expenditures, exclusive of payments on account of the public debt, were $43,250,000, leaving a balance of $33,350,000, including the balance for the yoar ending June 30th, 1652. He recommeuds that the surplus revenue be first applied to the discharge of tbe public debt; aud secondly, that meaus be devised to effect a gradual reduction of tbe revenue. The first is already in the course of accomplishmout—the publio dubt amounting to $56,250,000. He recommeuds, secondly, that the plan contained in the report of the Secretary of the Treasury for the reduction of duties on certain articles, and ad ding to the free list articles into mauufuctorios, mid uot largely producod iu the country, be adopted. He suggests, also, improvements in the niodo of lettling accounts, and collection of arrears due from public officers. He recommends the augmentations of the army and navy expeuses. The Post Office exponsos for the year were near ly $8,000,000, tbe receipts nearly $0,000,000, leaving a deficiency of about $ >,000,000, principally caused hy tho enormous rates paid Railroad Companies for transportation. He calls attention in this connec tion to the income aud expenditures from tho trans mission by mail steuinors, and demands prompt ac tion tkeroon. He alludes to the qumcrous frauds perpetrated on the Peusiou Bureau, aud hopes that the dofecls iu the law will be speedily remedied. He conuneiids tbe present Laud system, and states Uitt the uelt returns from the sale of Publio Lands up to June 30th, 1853, were $53,350,000. He recom mends the extension of the Public Land system over Utah and New Mexico, aud that some modifications be made iu favor of actual sealers, and that the pro- S tion principle be extended, e maintains nhs powor of Congress to construct Roads within tbe Territories, and says that grants of Land for the construction of roads should be made under proper circumslaucos. He recommends tho enlargement and modification of the Judicial system, as its present organization is confessedly inadequate to the duties to be per formed. tin recommends the immediate organization of the Smithsonian Institute upon the terms prescribed in the act of Congress. lie takes strong grounds against internal improve ment* being made by iltu Federal Government, and asks, if the policy wore once settled against appro priations by the Federal Goovrnmunt for local im provements for the boneflt of Commerce, would not such localities, by means clearly legitimate aud pro per, raise the Binds for themselves T He hopos the question will be deliberately reconsidered auda plan matured to promote the perinauent interests of the country. He thinks, also, where constructions aro being made by the General Government, the right to tho soil ought to be first oblainod. Referring to the means for affording communica tion hatweeu the State* along and on tho oppusito side ofthe Rocky Mountains,lie maintains that the Federal Government ha* the power to construct military roads, aud protect harbors of refuge. Ho thinks, however, that it is of doubtful pbwer, and more than doubtful propriety, for the General Gov ernment to admiuister the affairs of a railroad and caual, and that, therefore, its connections with such a work should be iucideotal rather than primary ; and aJds that no grandeur of enterprise or induce ment* promising popular favor shall lead him to dis regard the light of the Constitution. He refers to the settlement hy compromise of tbe exciting questions of 1850, as giviug a now vigor to our institutions, and repose to tbe country. He urges fidelity to the Constitutional rights of the State*, «ud avoldiuiee of agitation, and winds up by a general review of tin past and prospective advances of the country. He urges again a strict adherence to theconstitu lion, aud avoidance of the exercise of doubtful powers, as tbe only means of maintaining national cohesion. He advises, also, the cultivation of the cardinal virtues—public frugality and official integrity—and that a wise economy be introduced into the adminis tration of affairs. He refers appropriately to the death of Vice- President King, and concludes by soliciting the firm co-operatiou of the co-ordinato branches of the government. W Dominic Bradley, the victor in the recent prize fight with Sloan, has been arrested in Phila delphia. Bank of AugSita.

Farther Itrtpttrtant Foreign News hy Karo ya. There has Iteflh no decisive battle fought between Russia and Turkey, but the previous accounts are fully confirmed by this arrival, and much skirmish ing and cannonading are said to have occurred iu various directions. Letters from Vienna dated the evening ofthe 14th ult., state that the Turks bad attackod Galatz and Brallow, and it will be recollected that former ad. vices mentioned that there had been movements on tbe pen of the corps darmts at SchnraU, the head* quarters ot Omar Pasha, which betokened a design to cross the Danube at Galatz, far down near the mouth, the purpose of such a movement doubtless being to turn the Russian flank, and prevent a junc tion with it of tbe very strong reinforce menu of infantry, which it was known were on tbe march beyond the Prutb. It is stated, also, and tbe reporU are said to have bced confirmed from Ilermanstadt, a town of Hun gary iu Transylvania, that the Turks, after the at Uck on Galatz end Brailow, had re-crossed the Daaube without having beon engaged' t by tho Rut- sinus, at ull poinu except Kalafat, which they still retained and had strongly fortified. Some grand movement it is though, is in contemplation by Omar PMha, which the re-pessege of tho Danube basin the meantime served to mask. The Russians are sending their sick and wounded to Kichinev in Bessarsbia, the hospitals in Wal- lachia and Moldavia being insufficient to contain them. France has formally announced to Austria that if she gives refuge to any armed Russians retreating from the Turks, Frauce will regard it as a declare lion of war. M. Drouin de Luys has replied to tho circular of Count Nesselrode, and retorts by saying that if as the Emperor of Russia states, lie has no wish to subvert the integrity of Turkey or the Sovereign rights of tho Sultan, the poace of Europe cannot be huzurded by French interference, inasmuch France would only interfere in behalf of tho said integrity and Sovereign rights. A dispatch from Berlin announced another victory of tho Turks at Olteuitza. Other account* say that in attempting to pass tho Danube nearly Kalarash, opposite Gringcro, they were repulsed with a heavy loss. It was rumored that fifty thousand Russians had crossed the Pruth. Russian prisoners of war had arrived at Constan tinople. The latest dispatch from Vienna, says that the Turks hud passed Bucharest, which was in flames, and the Russians retreating on Cronstadt, pursued by fifteon thousand Turks, sent to intercept them in their retreat, after destroying tho fortifications at Oltenitza. The Turks left thoir position on the left bank of the Danube without engaging in battle, the conae- queuce of a centralization of tho Russian forces. Abdi Pasha was about commonciug a general at- tack on the Russian line. Russian vessels had been captured on the coaat of Asia. An iminenso number of Turks were concentrating on the Asiatic frontier. Letters from St. Petersburg state that all the Rus sian troops have received orders to bo ready lo march at a moment’s warning. The Russian Manifesto of War had boon read in all the Churches. Sickness in the Russian Army prevails to alarming extont. The Hospitals at Constantinople are crowded with the sick. Franco tells Austria she must not interfere. Pit rifle i ullrontl. The exploring party in Southern California under tho coiniuniid of Lieut. R 8. Williamson, had, at ilie last accounts, completed the survey of Walker’s Pass and tho adjoining portions of the Sierra, ami the country from thence to the Southward of the Tulare Lakes. The' following U extracted from a letter of one of the party, received by tho last steamer:— Tuou Camp, Sept. 28, 1853. have beeu iu the mountains most of the time, and discovered some important geological facts.— Game is very abundant. Ou my last trip I saw bears, deors, antelopes, and the singular mountain sheep, which is rare in this latitude. They have enormous horns, and iuliubit the most rocky and precipitous mountains. A white man who bus squatird here, cumo in to-duy with three bears. We sue them repeatedly when out, but avoid them if possible, as they are verydungerous when wounded. " I am alone in the small tent allotted to the artist and myself; huve spread my horse-blanket ou the grouud iuside the canvass, drawu down the flaps as it is evening, aud tied a lighted caudle to stick stuck in the ground, and the paper rests upo the top of my paunier.

Pittsbueo, Dec. 6.—The Massacre of Oapt, Gunnison and his party—Names of all the victims. —A disputr.h, dated Independence, Mo., Nov. 28, confirms the report brought by tho Suit Lnko mail! of tho mussacre of Capt. Gunnison's exploring par ty. Tho massacre was committed by n baud of Utah Indians, led by the notorious chief, Walker. Gov. Youug, of Utah, writes that an express reached him ou theSlstof Octobor from Capt. R. W. Morris, giving an account of the raarsacra which was committed ou the 26th, ou llie Sevier Rive* netr Sevier Lake. These killed were Capt. J. W.GuncUui. in com maud of the expedition; R. II.
