WjLSmxoiox, August 27th, 1853. Mmrt. Eiiton .-—I have been tempted to write you for the purpose of Informing you of matters and things here, but we have nothing of Importance, however, to communi cate^ save the first step towards re-organising the "Old Whig Party,” under the new sobriquet of “ Axuuois Pab- tt.” This new move has been commenced lnBaltlmore | and la nothing mote nor lees than a gigantic effort on the part of the leaders and under-workers of the M Old Whig ” and u Old Native American ” parties, to blend them togeth er In battle array against the Old Democracy of *78 and '53. It is well enough for the Democratic party to look to these movements and allow nothing to entangle them In any one of these new-fangled Whig note—whether it bo a ‘* Georgia Republican ” or a “ Baltimore American ” party, as both have In view the same object. There is all kinds of underhand work being carried on here by certain men, having In viow the success of tho Whig, aUtu American, party. These movements are closely watched by some of ns here, and as they proceed we will give notice to the Invincible Democracy, both North and 8outh. The hew Democratic paper under the editorial charge of Beverly Tucker, Esq., will commonce its career In about two weeks.' It promises to be a valuable addition to the already surpassing strength of the Democratic press. Let it have all the help of the Georgian. Lewis Cass, Jr., Is now in Washington, and stopping at tho “ Irving Hotel” He will, in the course of a day or two, start for Rome, as our Charge d’Affaires. He had his final interview with Secretary Matey, on Tuesday. Hie President has nearly finished the numerous appoint ments which come under his hands, and although many were disappointed, as a natural consoquence. yet there la not as much dissatisfaction as might be expectod. We be lieve the President has been as careful In his selections as he possibly could be under the circumstances, and has looked exclusively to the public good. Wo know that tho work is the sevenl departments is progressing at the rato of about twenty knots au hour, although they found bust- ness In some of the departments In rather a knotty condi tion,'-, wlien the present administration entered. Messrs. Guthrie and P. G.

It would ba a hopeless task wert I to attempt to present anything like a sketch of the masterly and powerful efforts to whloh hundreds listened with unfeigned delight, nor shall I attempt tt. My purpose te solely to pwaent to your readme, as faithfully and impartially u I ma/i the con trasted effects of the speeehee-th* Impression which they made both upon the writer and the audience. Mr. Johnson opened the discussion In a speech of an hour's length, and was followed by Mr. Jenkina te a speech of one hour and a half; after which Mr. Johnson concluded te a farther speech of about twenty minute*. Tn say that the speakers sustained thelrgreat reputations, m skillful and ready debater*, would be but faint praise. Proud was every man present, that the political parties of Georgia had presented for our snSrtgef two auch noble and true heart ed Georgians as Mr. Jenkins and Mr. Johnson. About them, as men of Integrity, of patriotism, and of talent, there was but one expression of opinion. Both are patriotic, both men of experience and of practical wisdom, and both emi nently fitted toafmteleter the afiklre of 8tata. Betogeuch, their views on politioal questions muit alone decide the people tn their choice. Now, whatever the audience may have thought of the comparative merits of the speakers, the views of the Demo cratic candidate,by tho moit unmlstakeable eigne, were by Car the moat popular, and met the warmest sympathy of tho peoplo. Wo shall draw no Invidious distinction be tween the candidates as to their comparative ability. For w* are willing to attribute the rapturous applause with srhlch Mr Johnson was greeted, and the entire absence of applause which attended (lie effort of Air. Jenkins, solely to ilia (Act that tbs, principles, which tho former advocated, were the principles of the people, dear to their hearts as their very existence; It wonld hare done yon good, Demo crats of Southern Georgia, bad you been present, to wttneaa the outbursts of Joy with which the bsrdy mountaineers greeted the standard-bearer of your principles. There was not the faintest applause given to Mr. Jenkins, while the Democratic candidate wee Interrupted, time‘and again, with the most enthusiastic demonstrations of the popular feeling. Indeed, we were sorry for Mr. Jenkins, that no friend was present to raise, in hie behalt one feeble choer. Though his effort was a masterly one. and he defended him self with the conrage an<l resolution of a lion, yet neither were his principles, nor the company which he keep*, ac ceptable to the people. He did all that mortal man could do with such a rotten cause to support. He had nothing to make a speech upon—nothing to advocate—nothing to defend. Gen. Pieroe’a appointments and the Paelfio Rail road gave him his whole capital. He will not descend to the low and dirty tricks of other Whig leaders in Georgia, who are putting him forward as a stepping stone to their own ambition. Nor will ho spring folio Issues upon the people, for you hear from bis lips not a word about tho Union’s being In danger, and its needing another saving.— He leaves all such stuff to Toombs, Stephens & Co. There fore, tt was that never, perhaps, before baa a public speaker appeared under greater disadvantages. Therefore, it was that hla remarks were attended with no applauso. And therefore, tt was that hla opponent waa interrupted with plaudit after plandlt. The truth Is, Messrs. Editors, the peoplo were completely carried away by the speech of Mr. Johnson. The affair was all on ono side. Nor are we presenting an overwrought picture. I appeal to any man, who was present, if the truth has not been written. I speak of that which I do know, asid tattfy of that tohich I hatt teen. I waa no little amused by a remark of an old Whig after tho meeting.— He thought Johnson had taken great advantage of his op ponent, became, said the old man, " Mr. Johnson takes tuck a hold on a fdlow't fedingt.” The old man was right.— Johnson did take hold of tho feelings—or rather tho princi ples which ho advocated found a hearty response In the bosoms of theso dwellers among the mountains. The fires which he kindled will burst forth and sweep over these mountains and valleys, cleansing, purifying, and burning np the last vestige of Whlggery. And many a Whig here hu found, and many a Whig will find, that tho same Demo cratic fire, which the ashes of Whlggery have long smoth ered, barns within their own hearts, and will soon be fann ed Into a red hot glow. Others will catch the flame. Democrats of Southorn Georgia, turn yonr eyes north ward, and behold the beacon-flrea lighted upon the tops of the mountains! Thoyeall upon you to awake! Awako! Send back from your own caiup-Qres the signal that all Is well, and that no man Is asleep at his post. Murray county sends you greeting. Sbo promises a larger Democratic majority than aha has ever given. All Cherokee Georgia is right. AU that you hear about divisions in this part of Georgia is folso. There may bo differences of opinion in regard to tho most proper candidates to represent the coun ty in the Legislature: tfiero have been differences In re gard to the Congressional nomination. ButaU this is put; for Dr. Lewis, with true patriotism, hu withdrawn from the contest, and left the field to Tnmlin and Chutaln. The lat ter will be olocted by a large majority. So far, u the gubernatorial oontest Is concerned, all Democrats aro ted, and have received a largo accession to their ranks from the Scott Whigs. Johnson's election is a fixed foot. Do your duty. Is aU that Cherokee asks. For she will roll up In Ootober next such increased majorities, as shaU pro claim forever the death-knell of Whiggory In Georgia.

Tho term “Air Lino” was first applied to a railroad- in derision.

There aro two classes of persons in tho Stato of Florida—the cotton planters, who are rich s the great mass ol the people, who ore poor. Cotton must be cultivated for the profit of tho rich, who ore few; but vines conjointly ought to be culti vated for the benefit of the poor. Evory person can plant 20,200. or 2.000 vines; in two years they will bear fruit. The poor can sell the S cs, or have them squeezed in tho vine press; can Bell tho juice, or havo it distilled into cognac brandy. It wil be enough to havo in each vineyard of ono hundred acres of land, one vine press, and also one alambique or distillery. Grapes of thin, soft skin ore not suitable to this climate: grapes of hard skin are preferable. To cultivate the grape is a very easy task. Every person can learn how to train or pruno the vino in the proper conjunction of the moon, and the proper season ; then to make wine ; to let the wine ferment to separate the liquid from the lees ; to mako the cla rifications, and to prepare Florida genuine IVine tor exportation. AU tho operation is nothing. When you see mo do it once, every person will bo able to do the same, and become a practical wine maker. Let us make Florida a vine growing Stato, and in the short space ol two years, Florida will become tho most important Stato of the Union. If yon dou’t do it, without txjxnse or labor, it te because you don't want to do it ? What is the difficulty ? None. The culture of tho vine is for the rich and for tho poor. A vineyard is- a bank of intrinsic value, be cause tho vine lives forever, and never dies. If any raflm thinks that lam working in Florida for my own benefit, ho te perfectly mistaken, for it is a desire of doing good to the country. Tho Florida Wine will give cheap wine to tho peo ple, and thus stop drunkeacss. Pumpkin wine and water raellon wine, like the French and Gorman wine, te good for nothing. I re commend you to plant vines fa abundanco, for mak ing strong bodied wine, Iiko Madeira, Port and Jerez. Will you have tho best wines for the soil of Florida? Ploaao to write a letter to John Howard March, Esq., American Consul at Madeira. He will send to you 20 or 40 boxes, with Madeira vino cuttings, directed either to New Orleans er to New York—they will reach hero in two or three months. Meanwhile, let every person here, and through all tho State of Florida, plant vine cuttings, either of S od or bad quality—never mind; please to do it.— i soon ns we shall have the vines from Madeira, (which must bo here in tho month of December.) then I will engraft yonr vinos already planted, with tho Sladeira vines, and thus thousands of acres of land in Florida, without any value at present, will becomo the rich yinevards of America—tho most ‘ irfda ““ “ safe patrimony of Florida children.—Dr. Ricardo. From California. The U. 8. M. steamship Falcon, A. G. Gray, com mander, arrived in onr port yesterday, bringing the United States mails and passengers from Oeliforais. The Falcon saUed on tbo evening of the 19th. The Georgia left Asplnwall on the same evening, with the U. B. mails, 150 passengers, and 81,600,000 on freight, for New York direct. The steamship John L. Stephens, from Panama to Acapulco, made the passage in four days and six hours—it being tho quickest passage over made— distance 1,500 miles. It te reported at Panama that the British steamer Mediator, from Callao to Panama, was loot—bat no thing definite. On the morning of tho 20th, threo hundred miles from tbo Balize, passed steamship Philadelphia, bound for Asplnwall. On the morning of the 26th, passed New York and New Orleans packet, standing to tho northward and westward, showing signal with white ground and blue cross. The healthof the Isthmus te remarkably good. The Placorrille Herald of tbo 30th ult, contains a letter from a correspondent at 8an Bernardino, in this State, giving an account of tho discovery of a truncadatea pyramid on the great American desert, some 200 miles north-west of the jnnetion of the Gi la with the-Colorado, Tho discovery te raid to have been made by a company of flvo adventurers, who attempted to cross the desert by a shorter route than that now known. The writer rays: An object appeared upon tho plain to tho west, having so much the appearance of a work of art, from the regularity of its outline and its isolated po sition, that the party determined upon visiting it. Passing over an almost barren rand-plain, a dis tance of. nearly five miles, they reached tho base ot a most wonderful object, considering its location, (it being the very homo or desolation,) that the mind can possibly conceive—nothing less than an immense stone pyramid, composed of layers or courses of from eighteen inches to nearly three feet In thickness, and from five to eight feet in length. It has a level top of more than fifty feet square, though it is evident that it was once completed, but that some great con vulsion of nature has displaced its entire top, as it now lies, a huge and broken mass, upon one of its sides, though nearly covered with rands. The pyramid differs, la some respects, from the Egyptian pyramid; it te, or was, more slender or pointed, ana while those of Egypt are composed of Bteps or layers, receding os they rise, the American pyramid was. undoubtedly, a more finished structure, the outer surface of the blocks were evidently cut to an angle that gave the structure, when new and com plete, a smooth or regular surface from top to bottom. From the present level of the rands that surround it. there are fiftv-two distinct layers of stono, that will average at feast two feet: this gives its present height one hundred and four feet, bo that before the top was displaced, it must have been, judging from an angle of its sides, at least twenty-fivo feet higher than at present How far it extends beneath the surface of tbo sands, it te impossible to determine, without great labor. The 'Worcester Railroad Collision—Indigna tion Meeting at Providence. PnoriDSKoK, Aug. 20.—A pnblio meeting was held this afternoon to consider tho recent collision on tbe Worcester Railroad. Resolutions, mild and exculpa tory in their tono, were reported, but were amended so as to strongly censure the road. The first resolu tion was reported— 1 " Whereas, In the providence of God,”—this was stricken out and amended os follows: " Whereas, by tho gross mismanagement of those having charge of the Vrovidencoand Worcester Rail road corporation." Dr. Wayland, who presided, left tho chair, pleading an engagement, and a number of others loft tho half. The meeting was not large, but tho debate was sharp.

It is composed of a largo iron wire covered with three coatings of gutta pcrcha, making a cord of about five-eighths of an inenin diameter. To protect this from wear and for security of insu lation there are threo coverings of strong osnabnrg,. saturated with an elastic composition of non-elec- in this disti tries; and around this aro eighteen large iron wires, , "‘" drawn tight as the wire will bear, and the whole is then spirally lashod together with another largo wire passing around at every three-quarters of an lnch^- Tho whole forms a cable of near two inches in diam eter, and it te much the largest and most substantial cable of the sort in tho world. Wc aro told that the great cable across tho channel from England to Franco is Inferior in size to this,and by no means as well insulated for etectrical applies- ton; while in point of strength it will not compare at all with the one at this place. The British wire across tho channel is surrounded by eight wires only while ours has eighteen. Ours Is spirally lashed, while tho British is not. Tho electric wire in the British cable has but ono coating of gutta percha, while ours has threo. C This stupendous wire, which now conducts the lightniug from shore to shore, beneath the bed of the majestic Ohio, is 4,200 feet in longtb.and the longest one to bo found in the United States. It has been constructed by thnt amiable and accomplished gen tleman, Tal. P. Shaffiier, Esq., late President of tbe Company, and now Secretary of the American Tele graph Confederation, assisted by J. B. Blceth, me chanical engineer. These gentlemen havo made im provements in tho construction of cables, both scien tific and mechanical, wbich will entitle them to letters patent, and the country may well bo proud of them as mon of skill aud ability in whatever they may un dertake. The wires on this line, we understand, havo been exceedingly troublesome and expensive to the Com pany, upwards of $20,000 having been expended in unsuccessful efforts to cross the rivers in such a man ner as to secure thorn against accident; but this great effort has accomplished the object, and there can be no future loss sustained on account of break age of masts, wires, Ac. Wo rejoico that tho work baa been successfully ac complished, and that it has proved folly equal to tho most sanguine calculation our friend Sb&fihor bad raado of its utility. We had tho pleasure of receiving tho first despatch whioh over passed under tho Ohio ou this mammoth cable, which runs as follows: “ Illinois Bottom, July 26,1853. “ Col. Piko; I send this through the great cable, successfully laid to-day. Bhaffneb.” More Plunder* It te confidently reported that n project is on foot to organize a line of Btoamcra from Norfolk to Liver pool. The Cotton Plant says, “ tho project 1s a good ono, and it will bo properly brought forward next Congress.” Now, if tbo project is to obtain from Congress great sums of money for another line of Bteamere, the project is a very bad one, and wo hope Western members will have patriotism and firmness enough to def at It. In tho history of the world we do not remember a country whoso legislators have made greater strides in lavish appropriations of tbe people s money than Congress has of late years.— There has been bare-faced plunder of the treasury; the flood gates of corruption and prodigality are open, and tho cry te “ let the stream roll on.” Con gress is to bo asked to appropriate tho somo amount to this Norfolk lino that tbo Collins line has obtained, according to tha correspondent of tho New York ■Evening Post; and tho Cotton Plant rays Amen! “ the project is a good one.” Moreovor, those of tbo Virginia strict-constructlonists who opposo tho Pa cific Railroad are to strike a bargain,.secure this Nor folk line appropriation, and then pitch the constitu tion as they interpret it. to the devil and go for tbe railroad. In a word, the Chivalry of Old Virginia, the stern defenders of the Constitution, aro to Bell themselves like oxen at tho shambles for a steamboat appropriation, and tho Cotton Plant rays “ the pro ject is a good one.” Ooo set of planderers are to rob “ Uncle 8am ” on tbe highway, and the States’ Rights men of Old Virginia aro to stand still and see it done, in consideration of being allowed to pick his pocket. Where te this game of plunder and unprincipled bargain and sale to stop ? Are tho people of this Re public to bo nothing but a prey to hucksters? The American people are fast declining into tho pitiable condition of Old John Bull, who te bled at every pore by creatures from tho lordly vampires to the raven ous rousquito. How many gangs will want to rifle tho people’s pockets at tho session of Congress after tho next, If this gamo te not stopped ? Congress is already possessed of one insatiable devil in the Bhapo of New York, with its Collins lino, its Mint, etc., next session it will take to itself seven other devils, unless the people interpose. Let the men of the Groat West wako up, unless thoy want to bo made unresisting “ hewers of wood and drawersof water”—meretaxedserfs, lor Eastern nabobs. If the honest yeoman of the West do not speedily look to it, tho Treasury will be crucified be tween two legions of thieves.—Ohio Statesman. John. C. Breckenbridgo, the democrat re-elected to Congress in tho Ashland District ot Kentucky, must fullv deserve all the high praise bestowed upon him by his friends, when the inveterate Louisville /ourti- at is constrained to sneak of him as follows : “ We havo been half afraid, during the canvass, to express fully our opinion of him,lestour whig friends in this district and elsewhere, might deem us untrue to tho interests of our party. Mr. B. is a pure and no ble-hearted man, and a liberal minded politician, and he has earned and won at home and at Washington os high a reputation for talent as belongs to any man of his age in tho United States. We do not know of Tho appearance of tho combined French and Eng lish squadrons at Besika Bay is, says tbo Paris Cott- s/ifufiontir/, “ most imposing. This bay is situated on tbe coast of Asia, at the entrance of the Darda nelles, is largo nnd deep, and it te not improbable that it contained the one thousand vessels which boro tho Greeks before the walls of Troy. Our modern vessels, less numerous but more formidable, form a long line opposite the plain along which tho pctulent Achilles dragged the body of Hector at the tail of his chariot. The French vessels are at tho head of the line, tho headmost ship being tho Bayard, of ninety ” the ships of the lino and tho shore guns. Between . are ranged the smaller railing vessels and the steam ers.’* Tnz Tomb of NATOLKOxv-Wm. C. Bryaut, the poet, has recently visited the tomb of Napoleon, in tho Church of tho Iavalidcs, France, which has just bceu completed. Ho says, in a late letter, that there te not upon earth so magnificent a mausoleum as that of the handful of dust that remainsof tho warrior who, iu his lifetlmo was tbe terror of Europe. The tomb is iu part constructed of American marble, the resting- place of the remains bcinc surrounded by a circle of colossal figures, ono of which, a winged figure, te to represent the angel of resurrection, who is in tho con summation of earth to call tbe mighty warrior from his sleep, to bo confronted by tho spirits of the myri ads who wero slain in bte sanguinary wars.

W. by N. (by compass) distant 48 miles; Island of San Clemente bears N. E. }{ N. (compaas) distant 43« miles. The nature or tho bottom la hard, com posed or white sand, broken shells and coral; the least water found, ten fathoms, would be about nine reduced to low water, and the character of tho soundlnp, as you will find upon reference to the chart which I send herewith, irregular and abrupt. The weather while at anchor upon tbe shoal we found different from that which ordinarily prevails npon the Coast in tho vicinity, bearing a strong resemblance to that npon the Banks of Newfoundland. The current is Irregular, frequently setting against tho wind, and running with a velocity of nearly two knots per hour, producing a heavy sea. and causing the water proh bly to break fn heavy weather as has been reported.

Dixo. at South Newport McIntosh county, on the 25th . ‘ “ — * >r, Mrs. ignut, at tbe residence of her mother, Mrs. SUSAN K. ROERTSON, daughter of Mrs. Jani H. Harris, and wife of Rorert M. Robxrtson, aged 22 years. It waa the privilege of the writer to know well the de- 'ceased; she possessed all the noble trait* of character which endeared her to all who knew her. In her death. ' her husband, mother,brothers and slaters, and friends have sustained a loss that will not soon be forgotten, for her amiable disposition had endeared her to many. As a daughter, she was obedient, kind and affectionate. As a sister, devoted. As a wife, her a im waa to please—to him she was kind and sincere, and delighted to make him hap- py. In this berearment many hearts are made to bleed; an aged mother U bereft of a fond daughter; brothers and sisters of a devoted sister; a husband of an amiable wife: and friend* ol a true and abiding friend. The deceased never made a public profeasion of religion, but for montha before her illneu was much concerned about her soul. Bho died perfectly happy. Death had no terrors for her. She exhorted her husband, family and friends to prepare to meet her In heaven. Her death was certainly the most triumnhant I hare ever witneasod. She prayed to be re lieved of her sufferings by death. She had a strong and abiding faith In her Saviour. Tho loss to hor husband, family and friends is bargain, aa aba gave the most convincing proof of her preparedness for the change from this world of sin and misery to that bright ige Id where sin can never enter. During her illness, which lasted for ten days, when suffering tha moet Intense nain and in agony, ahe waa never known to murmur, bat bora patiently her sufferings until relieved by death. She has exchanged the pains and cares of earth for a happier world. ‘•Blessi ilicssed are the dead who die in tbe Lord.” C O-PARTNERSHIP.—The undersigned baa this dav asso ciated with him in the Cotton Factorage and General ra,late of Center A Villa- Coremlaalon Boslnee, Mr. John L.
