This island lies at the month of the straits of that n*me, at the northern extremity of Newfound land, and would be quite Important In the bands of the French or Anuricaus as a fishing Station. Bo much Interest and anxiqty were excited by this an nouncement. that a petition, signed by neatly all the leading merchants of St. Johns, has been presented to the Legislature of Newfoundland, praying for re monstrance with tbe Horae Government against the measure. The following is the exordium: < ■ “ Yonr petitioners have heard, with alarm, that tbe ' French government have beeu in treaty with tho British government recently for the transfer of Belle- isle, in the Straits, to the former government,and are likely to succeed in obtaining it. That island being the point where the codfish strike on their way to the shores of Labrador, and, therefore, one of the best fishing stations on the north-east coast of this island, your petitioners feel convinced that if it should unfor tunately bo ceded to the French, a great portion of Labrador will bo rendered useless to the British gov ernment,” &c. Ao. Wo havo no means of knowing whether snob a de sign as is hero indicated has beeu seriously entertain ed by cither of the two governments.

I have made myself a great repu tation for benevolence, merely by refusing to sub- ■oribe in this way. This is a queer world, Sam.” Here tho old gentleman was seized with a violent fit of coughing, which nearly took him out of this queer world. “I fear, father, that talking so much will be fatal to yon,” said Samuel. “No. no.” resumed his father, “ I am determined not to die till I get through. As I was saying, Sam my, this (a a queer old world, and you can’t get along ^‘^Without vriiatV’ ’ exclaimed his son, in amaze- ‘ ment.

Murder of Col. Cnyicr, 7. The Augusta Constitutionalist of yesterday, pub lishes a letter from a private correspondent, dated Atlanta, the 26th, relative to tbe murdor of Col. Tel amon Cutler, brother of Mr. R. R. Cuylee, of this city, from wblcii we learn that it took place at Adairs- ville, on Saturday evening last. Mr. Cutler,the let ter states, “ was found nearthe railroad depot, with a small hole In nls head, and a rook weighing about 100 pounds lying on his hat. Whether killed by a roclc or pistol was not known whon the cars passed by, os an inquest was being held over the body. A man by tbe name of Cox, and his son, and another by the namo of Webster, (tbe son-in-law of Cox,) and hla wife, have been arrested on suspicion, and the evi-, denco so far elicited, is so strong, that there is little doubt they are the guilty parties.” Wa learn from a gentleman, who arrived by the cars last evening, that the parties above alluded to have been arrested and committed, the suspicion! having been strengthened by the evidenoe developed before tho Coroner’s Jury. The remains of tbe deceased were brought to this city last evening. The fnneral will take place this morning, at nine o’clock, from the residence of Dr. W. H. Cutler, corner of Bronghton and Bnll streets. Murder* The Barnwell, 8.0., Sentinel, ot the 25th, relates the otrcnmstonces of the murder of a little son of Mr. Jakes Kirkland, on the plantation of Colonel B. H. Brown, near that place on the 2ist., by a young ne gro girl of only 11 or 12 yean of age. The girl, who was a bouse servant, had been chastised by her mis tress and soon after, from a feeling of revenge, took the little boy into the plumb-orchard near by the house and beat him on the head with a stick, leaving him for dead. Ho was soon after discovered In an in sensible condition, and lived but a short time. Tho girl was secured. John Wonsly, convicted of the murder of Robinson, was executed In Chesterfield, Va., on tho 26th. The Mississippi papers record the death of Jndge portanco in Philadelphia and ?iew York which few persons attach to it. A fact is mentioned by the Lancaster Independent Whig, which Bhowi this strik ingly. It is, that a single forwarding house in that city, Messrs. Powl & Mfshler, has.sinco tho begin ning or the present year, sent 1183 head of horses, by railroad, to Philadelphia. So exceedingly grout has been the growth of this city as well as New York, that tbe number of horses required ftruse is im mense, and constantly augmenting. Hard work, warm weather, disease, casualty, age, and other causes, diminish the number of our horsts continual- ly, and tbe chief supplies to re-placo them and to meet tbe growing demand, are derived from tho in terior of our own State, aud the great West.—PhiUx. U. S. Gazette. Matrimony and Friendship.—Sara Slick, in his “ Wise-Saws,” says that tho natur of matrimony is one thing, and the natur of friendship ia another. A tall man likes a short wife ; a great talker likes a silent woman, for both cau’t talk at once. A gay man likes a domestic gall, for he can leave her at once to nnrse chil dren and make pap, while he is enjoyin of himself at parties. A man that ain’t any music in him likes it In his spouse, and so on. It chimes beautiful, for they ain’t in each other’s way.

Tho word •• Tariff” is taken from a fortress which is situated on tho Straits of Gibraltar, a promonitory which, from its position, is adapted for commanding the entrance of the Mediterranean Sea, and watohing the exit and entrance of all ships. It was tho custom of tho Moors to watch from this point ail merchant ships going into or coming out of the Midland Sea, and issuing from this stronghold, to levy a certain fixed scale of duty on all merchandize passing in and out of tbe Straits, and this was called, from tho place where it was levied, “ tarifa,” or “ tariff,” and in this way wo have acquired the word.

Rome. Mr. Bryant, editor o( the N. Y. Evening Post, writes as follows in rogurd to the present state ol things in tho Eternal City: 11 In the midst of the evils of this false Bystem of political organization, there are Borne tokens of S rosperitr to be seen at Rome. I have no doubt that le popohtlon of the city has considerably Increased within tie last twonty years. The proof of this is to bo foundin the riso of rents and tho difficulty which now exia.3 in finding commodious apartments. I am told thatpnts have nearly doubled, and that the spa cious bii ob of rooms, which a few years since stood vacant ii the palaces and other large houses, have now the ■ inmates. This is owing, no doubt, ia part to tho g< icral growth of the population of Italy dur ing the ite long interval of rest from war, and in part to I io.new facilities for travelling, which bring many m re strangers to Romo than formerly as visi tors or i sidents. Tho tide also, which in tho eccle- slastlcalwarld is setting back towards the usages and opi Ions of the middle ages, no doubt floats many h her, and adds something to this new growth of Rom. Those who foretold that the Eternal City, in the unhealthy air of her Campogna, would at no distant ay become unpeopled, must be content to look to 4 very remote and indefinite futurity for the fulffloien: of their prediction,. “ Meantime, the city is soWowhat beautified with every succeeding year. Statues and columns are erected i the old irregular pavement of tho streets, troddenwith so much pain by those who had corns on theirfeet, has been taken up, and its place sup plied by a smoother one, composed of small rectan gular bheks of stoue, like those used in paving tho Btreots cf Paris ; a noblo causeway, with patapets, and a ptvement of hewn Btone, has been lately mado over the low grounds just within tbe gate, at the now Appiauway; aud the public garden and the Monto • Pincio ios been embellished with rows of buBts, in marble, of the illustrious men of Italy—her sages, artists and authors. Workmen are now occupied in tho garden, forming its walks, and planting them with trees, among which I perceive the evergreen magno lia, tbo bayonet-leaved palmetto, the date palm, and other treos of the palm kind, which do not find the olimate here too rude for their growth.” iw happily removed. , ... .1, that an enterprhe«o comprehonilvo and important In IU character, conflicting by neeeialty with many aatabilibed lntcreata, and calcula ted in a material degree to change thn well settled channels ora proeperous and lucrative trade—ehould not be vie wee with dhtruat and Jealously by eome other portion* of the State/ The Director* have not been tn*on*lble to tbe exist ence of theie feeling*, nor to be bltternei* of the spirit in which they have been ynanlfeited.

In Borne cases its attacks is very sadden, with slight indications, if anv, of its approach ; though, as a general thing, vertigo or dizziness, ringing in the ears dimness of sight, pain and heaviness in tne head, are tho precursors of coup de soleil and of apoplexy. Persons experiencing these symptoms, or their ap proach, should immediately quit work, and ride home; and by making, as soon as they can, free use of cold applications to tho head, will, in all probability re cover. “Place tbo patient in a cool and airy situation, with his head and shoulders elevated, and while some one ia removing his cravat, unbuttoning his Bhirt col lar, and rejnoring oc loosening whatever else that mav be tight about his person, duh auddonir coin water on his head. This may be done with a pitcher, or any suitable veaaol, held at some little distance above tbe head, pouring ont upon it a large and steady stream. Mustard plasters may be used over the upper part of tho feet and on the wrists. But, continue tne water, and tho patient mast be saved. “The laboring man, from tho nature of his em ployment, is more subject to attacks of this kind ban any other class of persons, as also short-nocked * is. no measures to whicli tho tnalevoleuco of our assailants may hereafter prompt them, can retard our nrogrese fur ther. In this spirit, citizens of Georgia, the Directors me/t you here to day. Shortly after the organization of this Company, at a meeting held In Brunswick, ou the 17th pf Juno. lko2, the Directors, acting under the authority of a resolution then adopted, entered Into onntracU with Messrs. Collins and Alexander, for tho construction of the entire liuo or road from Brunswick to Thomasville, with a branch to Albany, for the sum of ($13,000) thirteen thousand dollars per milo, inclusive of some equipments. As soon as practicable al ter those arrangements, tho Directors contracted through a London firm, with W. Digby Seymour, a member of the British Parliament,for fifteen thousand live hundred tons of Railroad Iron. By the terms of this contract, one thous and tons were to be delivered on board ship at Liverpool, during the month of October, 1862 ; and ono thousand In each succeeding month thereafter, until tho wliolo quantity should have been delivered ; and payment for this Iron wae to be made in the bonds of tho Company, Issued under authority nf resoluUons'adopted by the Stockholders at tlia meeting above referred to. The contract was sublet by Mr. Seymour to other partios. We have adverted to the insidious means called into requi sition in order to break up the plans o f tho Company, and to defeat all Its negotiations on the other side of tbe Atlan tic. The first monthly shipment of iron, stipulated in tho contract, was not dellverotl. A great and sudden rise of the price of iron had taken place shortly aftor the contract was made, and this fact added to tho difficulty which Mr. Soy* rnour alleged to exist in procuring from his Rub-contractors a punotual delivery of the rails, wae pleaded by him in ex cuse for tbo violation of hlB contract. To repair tho Injury thus inflicted upon us, at the very threshold of our undertaking, and to cnublo the Company to carry out iu good faith its agreomeut witli the contrac tors, the Directora without loss of timo purchased a quan tity of Iron rails In Boston, which arrived In Brunswick and are now In progress of being laid down. And It may here bo stated, that a Ixtcomotlro nnd Bomo cars have also been purchased, and that tho vcssol which conveys them is now on her voyage to this port. The contract witli Mr. Seymour still lingered on, unfulflll-. ed in any of its parte. And on tho Urst of March the Board of Directors determined to delegate their President. Mr. Foot, to proceed to England for tho purpose of ascertaining the causr of tho delay, and of making provision for the de livery of the iron. * On hla arrival in England, Mr, Foot, at the very outset- was met by embarrassments and difficulties which would have Btaggered a mind less self dependent, nnd a spirit less resolute than his own. He found that Mr. Soymour had de liberately broken the contract made under the most aolomn sanctions of human obligations ; that he had, with tho sel fishness of a cold calculation, sacrificed tho interests which had boon entrusted to his keeping, snd that ho had compro mised the eub-contracts ho had entered into with other par ties. In tho language of Mr. Foot, i! ho had sold us out and pockoted the price.” It Is not necessary to follow Mr. Foot through tho Tarlous phrases of bis negotiation. Tho Directors are happv to be able to announce that ho has succeeded in concluding a contract with a highly re spectable and houorablo house, for tho supply of fifteen thousand tons of rails. The first shipment, amounting *~ four hundred and fifty tons is to be mado in tho ensul „ month, July, and tho shlpmente are to coutlnue monthly, and about equal proportions, until the whole quantity shall have boon dollverod.

Not a house was visible, and in this emergen cy, the two men were compelled to do something to protect their families from tho peltings of the pitiless storm.

Thirty years have ainco rolled by, and the city of Ann Arbor now marks tbe spot where the wearied travellers sought safety and repose.” of the work upon tho road, by the clear and explicit com munication ou that subject, received from tho contractors, Messrs Collins and Alexander. It is marked A aud Intend ed to form a part of this report. Tlie directors invito your earnest attention to this communication. If additional guarantees were needed of tho energy and good faith with which the work will bo carried on, tiiej may be found in the position and character of the gentlemen who have it In charge, and who have raised on tho grandest highways of the State, monuments to th«ir science, efficiency, and skill, not destined to perish with themselves. There remains yet one duty for tho Board of Directors to discharge—that duty addresses Itsull more especially to mu citizens of Georgia. It will be remeinborcd that at tho last meeting of stock holders, certain gentlemen representing the different coun ties on the proposed line of road, pledged themselves that important aid, in the form of a largo subscription, should be secured. In all their subsenuont movements, the Directors have re posed Implicit confidence in tho high honor or xUu«. i*hn made this pledge, and In their ability to rodooni it. Indeed, if reliance, is to be placed upon Information in the hands of tho Directors, derived from sourcoa whoso credibility,.they cannot question, a subscription materially cxccadlng any amount at that timo pledged, will bo realized. It would bo superfluous at this time to outer into any de tailed exhibits of tho valuo or productiveness of our enter prise or of tbe immense Interior resources which this road in connection with other kindred improvements, is to lead to a profitable market. Tho former Reports of the Board of Directors haVe partially surveyed theso ( recent publications from authoritative sources have sup plied any deQcioncy which they might have left. Tlie South* era and middle portions ol Georgia havo too long been shut out from the commercial facilities which alone were need ed to give them pre-eminent influonco and prosperity. Tlie absence of these facilities has clipped the golden wings of your commerce, aud pent up within tho narrowest limits, the resources aud energies of our peoplo. It belongs to you to redeem yourselves from this unnatural bondago. to put your hands to the wheel here, now, to-day, to avail your- selvos or tho natural advantages which lie temptingly spread before you to secure the harvest which waits only for the reapers. Your brethren of the North, associated with you in this great work, have never, for one moment, faltered In their forward movement. They have alrendy paid ten per ceut. on the twelve thousand nnd fifty shores for which they havo subscribed, and they will promptly meet any farther assessments which may be required to sustain tho credit of the Company. Relying upon your faith and your co-oporation therewith, they hnve pursued their object, with that unfailing energy which regardi nothing aa dono, so long *b anything remains to bo accom plished. You may not—you can not—you will not disap point them. They look with anxious concern to the result of thin dav’s gathering. Thoy hnvo never doubted that not- withitanding all opposition and in the faco of all combina tion*, the victory would at Inst be ours. And thoy have borne without a murmur the repeated disappointments and delays which have nttonded our effoits. because thoy felt that the highest and most durable triumphs are those which have been achieved by the greatest struggles and sac rificed by the heaviest sacrifices.

Berry, bound to Charleston, and, while there was plenty of sea room, from some cause to us unknown, said ab!i> mn into the larboard wheel-house of the Florida, do ing considerable damage. This our officers endeavored to avoid by keeping away as much as possible, but thoir efforts were of no avail. For a few minutes we wore lod to bellovo that we should bo compelled to return to New Yord for re pairs. but our captain,^Wth that perception and coolness characteristic of a truo seaman, at once decided to proceed on our voyage, which hai been accomplished In the unusu al short time of 60 hour*, having left the Marion soon after passing tho bar, much to the gratification of all on board. Wo will further add, that, as regards the discipline and management of tho ship, the kind attention and general treatment recelrcd from all on board, has beon such render goneral satisfaction. We therefore tako an especial pleasure In recommending the steamship Florida, and her very gentlemanly officers, to tho attention of our friends and the public generally. C. C. FLETCHER.
