Keep U btfort the People, That Charles J. Jenkins says In a letter to the editor of the Sac. Republican: Under existing circumstances I would not ark my Democrat Union friends to abandon thkib FORMER ALLIES, NOR AM I AT Apt DI8F08KD TO HEP A* BATE FROM MINS. TflXRB 18 NO SEASON TO SUPPOSE ' THAT THEY DAVE CONCEIVED A NEW ATTACHMENT TO th* Whig fartt, and upon tub closest self-ex- - AMIN ATI ON, I DO NOT PERCEIVE THAT I AM AT ALL Keep it before the People, That Charles J. Jenkins ran for Vice-President with the Ghost of Daniel Web- ster—that Webster was his cbqice for the Presidency —Webster, who said: " At Abington. Hass., Oct. 10, 1848, that the Free Soilers at Buffitio, had stolen their aentlmenta bom the Northern Whigs. It was a clear oase of petty larceny—that there was nothing in the platform tbat did not meet the unqualified approba tion of-the Northern Whigs—that Ir Northern Whigs were to join the Free Soil party, • we,’ said Mr. Web- iter,-‘should still be the whig party under a differ ent name, and that would be an.’ ” Keep it before the People That while Mr. Jenkins Is in favor of a Law whfoh would take away the rights of every voter In the city of Augusta who does not own $1000 in real estate or pay a Tax of $25 a year, Judge Johnson is in favor of Universal SuflVage.— Bead his sentiments In this extract from a public speech delivered when ho was nota candidate fur of fice : “ And besides, the right of universal suffrage brings every citizen Into a species or copartnership alliance With the whole political mass, associated for purposes of Government. To use a business expression, it * gives him an interest in tho concern,’ and inspires him with a consciousness of his own importance. Let him have a voice in the elevation of tboee who are to enact the laws by which he is to be governed, and tho title to his homstead is to bo regulated, and the low est Yeoman while he toils for his daily bread, and the sweat of his Industry drops from hla manly brow, is happy in the thought that be is a freeman. Hie af fections cluster with idolalious devotion around the Government of bis choice, and if necessary for its de- fenco. ho will freely poor ont his blood, as a libation niton its altars. A man animated with a spirit of li berty, cannot love a government which makes him a ■lave, and bolds him as a mere machine in its opera tions, bound to render obedience ty laws which be has no voice in enacting, lie either sinks into the lethargy of a barely animated mass of organized mat ter, oraroosed to fury, by the convulsions of despera tion, he is willing to perish in the wreck of his coun try’s evertbrow. Keep it before the People, That Charles J. Jenkins voted in tne Legislature with about a dozen others against leaving to the people to decide whether tbeir Judges should do elected by them, or tho legislature —thereby showing that settled distrust of the masses which has been, daring bis whole lire, tho index of his political character. Keep it before the People, That the Jenkins men are calling their party the Union Party—and keep it be fore tne people, that Toombs ordered the editors of the Recorder to take down the nameUnion Conven tion” from the head of its extra containing tho pro ceedings, and the editors of the Recorder did as they were ordered, and put tho word Gubernatorial in piaoe of Union. . Keep U before the People, That Robert Toombs in his speech before the Convention that nominated Jenkins for Governor, denounced the foreigners in Amerfcai who had by energy and native talent arisen tb eminent stations under the Government, as a” set of Red Republicans, German Jews,” Ac. What say yon,. Germans. Irish, and 1 ranchmen, are Toombs and Jenkins the men you would honor ?—Federal Union, ' Is it the Union Party, or Is It the WWg Party 1 Tho Whig or Republican Citizen papers are en deavoring to deceive Union Democrats, by holding out the idea that the isauos are tho same now as they were in 1851, and that Jcuklns is the Union Candi date. It is very true that Mr. Toombs did not give the Convention that nominated Mr. Jenkins the Union name—on the contrary, he Wone made the oditora of the Recorder take the word “ Union ” from the head of their Extra, and insert in lieu thereto, “ Gubernatorial Convention.” But we put it to tho common sense of Union De mocrats—will they believe tho Union can bo saved over again, by putting Whigs In all the offices?— Havo not the Whigs played the sumo game before, and got Democrats to trust them, and no sooner were they in power than they began to practice tbeir same “USamocr... the hUI„ of .1,0 Whig argument that the issues are the same now that they were In 1850 and ’61. let ns refer to a few names, who were amoug tho lenders and strongest Bnpporters of the Union Party then, Who now are the strongest supporters of Democracy and Judge John son. Take for exampio, Gov. Cobb, Judge Warner, Judge James Jaokson, Judge Henry R. Jackson, Col. Cbappell, Judge Cone, Judgo Lnmpkin, Gen. Wof. -ford, Judge Charlton.

And let ns not forget those sterling Republican Union Whigs, Col. Underwood, Jndge Wright, Col. Millege, Col. "Milner, Col. Dabney, and Dr. H. Y. M. Miller, who are also supporting Jndgo Johnson. Against this array of talont and respectability, may be placed the names of Judge Baxter, Judge Andrews, Hopkius Holsey, Col. Murphy, and Lewis Tumlin. Can any Union Democrat hesitato to which wing he belongs 1—Federal Union. The Two Ballot-boxes.—Mr. Jonkina and the qualified $1000 voters put their tickets into the privil eged mahogany box; while tho hundreds who could not boast that much money, or who could not pay a tax of $25 dollars a year, had to vote in tho duqali- fled box. The Chronicle fy Sentinel is getting sore ’ on the Algerino Law—no wonder—the editor of that sheet knows that he endorsed the principles of that Law—he knows that Mr. Jenkins endorses them now. and would rejoice to see that same Algerine Law m full effect in the city of Augusta.

Congressional and Judicial Disnuors<-~We publish to-day a •« list, showing the arrangement of the Congressional and Judicial THstricta” of the State, not vouching for its accuracy*, as we have not compared it with tho Legislative acts. One Impor tant correction we have taken tho liberty to make— that Is, patting Chatham connty in the first Judicial District. It is surprising that though this “ list” has been going the rounds or the Georgia newspapers, this omission has never been noticed. The Democratic Mass Meeting at Kingston.— Of this meeting, which took place on the Oth Instant, wo havo seen no account In any Democratic paper. Bpeaklng of the meeting, a correspondent of tho Au gusta Chronule and Sentinel (Whig) says, ‘'the crowd was scanty, not exceeding 450 or 500 persons, all told.” Tho Journal and Messenger (also Whig) admits that there were “ six or seven hundred people in attendance.” As the “ Conservative ” accounts don’t agree among themselves, we conclndo that tho meeting was not so “ scanty ” after ail. But we shall know more about it in a day or two. Vermont Election.—A despatch, dated Burling- * ton, the 12th, says returns have been received from 230 towns, being all in the State but 10.* They show the olection of 88 Whigs and 123 opposition. Tho 8cnate will probably bo Whig byonoo'r two majority. The bill for tho liquor law U probably killed. . Maine Election.—The election in this 8tate took place on the 12th. As yet we have no news of the result, but from the large number of candidates ran- ningfor Governor, an election by the people is tbougt Improbable. An anonymous Correspondent sends us an inter esting article froih Thomasvillo for publication, ne glecting to enclose his name, which if he will yet do his communication will appear. The receipts of JulUen’s Concert at Castle Garden, New York, on Sunday evening last, in aid of the Now Orleans sufferers, amounted to about $1800. ‘ Bobberies at Concord.—Justice Squires, believed to havo been connected in the extensivo robberies of which mention bos been made, was found in the woodB, about a mile from that city on the 12th. The brig Mary Adeline, Capt. Gram, arrived at Charleston on the 14th, in fifty-four days from Rio de Janeiro, with 2*72 bags of coffee, for Messrs. John Fraser A Co. 'Washington Affairs. WA8U1NOTON, Sept. 11. Gen. Cass’ recent letter to President l’iercc, is couched in the most cordial terms. He assures him of his high personal and political regard, and declares that no President has ever had so many difficulties to encounter ; that his course has been wise, judicious, and patriotic ; that the writer will accept no posi tion uuder the administration, but as a Senator the Executive can rely upon his hearty support of his ad ministration. The letter is a net blanket upon disaffected and in subordinate Hnnkcre. Secretary McClelland is in re ceipt of a similar letter from Gen. Cass. The Secretary of State is engaged in writing a pa- peron tho Kossta affair, elicited by the Austrian pro- nunclamento. It will be a production a ta Webster on Ilulseman. High ground will be assumed and withal excoriating. Henry A. Wise is employed in writing a scathing article against the Pacific Railroad. It is currently reported that lie intends leading a Richmond beauty in a short time to tho hymeuial altar. I hope there will bo no lion in the way. There was a complimentary dinner given at the U. S. Hotel, last evening, to Gen. Pillow and E. P. Stanton. Among the nrincipalspeakers were Pill Stanton, and Judge Nicholson. Cuba, Progress, i Manifest Destiny, were the main topics of discussion. Fillibustering sentiments were received by some with marked favor. Tho Attorney General's address was pronounced able, attractive and brilliant. Benjamin J. Ferris, late Secretary of 8tato of tbc Territory of Utah, has lost returned. He reports- that not one-half of the degradation of the Mormons have been told. He says that Brigham Young has, at least, forty.wives; and that seditious feelings are rife throughout the community. The women and men are in a state of deep debasement. Homo. All tho rumors of a rupture between Mr. Marcy and the President are incorrect. The Cabinet is re garded os a unit. They had a long session to-day, at which foreign affairs were discussed. Capt. Ingra ham will certainly be sustained. Goorge M. Dallas is in town, and may possibly get tho mission to China or to France. The rumor that Secretary Davis Is abont to leave the Cabinet, to run for U. S. Senator for Mississippi, is regarded as unrounded. Beverly Tucker’s paper, tho Sentinel, will notmake its appearance till tno 10th. From Stillman's Journal of Science for September. Shooting Stars of August 10, 1833. Tho observations here recorded were made at New Haven, Conn., by Messrs. Francis Drag ley ntid Ly mail Baird, witli myself, on the night of Wednesday, August 10,1853. We were stationed together, in the opeu air, each observer having In his view, os far as practicable, a third part of the visible heavens. The time was highly favorable, the air being clear and calm, and the moon absent. Systematic observations were commenced at midnight, and continued until 3h. 25m. A. M. of tho 11th, and tho following table shows the number of different shooting stars seen by us during this period : a. N. X vr. b. v. K. Total. Oh to th A.M. 48 *27 lit 110 1 * 2 “ 42 34 39 118 Besides the meteors abovo enumerated, wo saw about twenty during tho quarter of an hour preceding midnight; rejected fifteen or twcuty doubtlul cases, and lost some after three o’clock on account of ad vancing daylight, and other causes. No meteor was twice reckoned, although many were of course seen in common by two observers. Of these meteors the large majority, probably less than three-fourths, moved in paths which traced back would Intersect very near the cluster in the sword handle of Perseus, and during our observations this apparent radiant place did not change its posi tion among the stars. Many of the meteors left trains behind them, and exceeded in brilliancy stars of the first magnitude, while a few equalled in splendor the planet Venus. It is evident from the foregoing statements that the periodical meteoric display of Aug. 9-10th has ap peared this year in usual form, and in numbers not much diminished. In order to render the numbers above given comparable with those of former years when mar observers were on tho watch, about one- sixth should probably be added thereto. It may be worthy of mention, that slight manifes tations of tho Aurora Borealis were visible about 2 A. 11., of the Uth, for about fifteen minutes, and again abont 3 A. M., the light being in each cose an irregular patch, extending from two to five degrees above tho horizon, and wholly on the West ofthc North point. Dnring tho night of Tuesday, tho 19th inst., the sky was too cloudy for observation. E.O. Herrick. Arrival of the Illinois. The U. 8; M. steamship Illinois, Lieut. J.' H. Hart- stcino, U. 8.

Steamship Philadelphia, due at Aspinwall from New Orleans, had not arrived when the Illinois left.

Why, every man in Chatham who In* forests himself In such thlogs, knew it weeks ago: It was even known In the Chorokeo country—for I was spoken to upon the subject when up there, ten dsys ago. In conclusion, Messrs. Editors, allow me to express the opinion, that “Salamander’* was not so Ignorant as he would have us believe. He knew of the oxlstenco of those tickets before, and knew, when he penned that communi cation, that he was doing Mr. Bartow Injustice, and that Mr. Bartow had nothing to do, directly or indlrectlr. with the distribution of those tickets. If he did not know, he could easily have Informed himself, by simply making the Inquiry of the person from whom be obtained the ticket, from whence they came.

Another Great Counterfeiter Arrested. The Cincinnati Gazette, of the 11th instant, says : Officers Do Haven and Keifer have for some time been aware tbat a notorious counterfeiter, tbe ring, leader in that business in tbe west, was sojourning in Covington, distributing forged notes and counterfeit money. Yesterday afternoon they went to Coving ton to tbe Hammond House, where Jones at tbc time happened to be, though he boarded at tbe Franklin House. They commenced talking with Jones, and turned tbe subject to counterfeiting, and gradually drew from him the names of the several places up tbe river which be had lately visited, and where he said he had been doing a good business in his line. De Haven asked him to go over to the city and see if he could not do something there. He said tbat he could not—that tbe officers there were after him, and it would not do. After repeated solicitations and re fusals on his part, De Haven told him tbat ho had a warrant for him, should arrest him, and he should go. Jones drew a knife, and undertook to Btrike the offi cer, and after a severe struggle, in which his coat was tom from him, he escaped, ran down the landing to the river, ran into the water up to his chin, nearly a third of the way across tho river. He then drew from his bosom a large hAndful of bank bills, shook them tauntingly at the officers, and dipped them re peatedly in the water till they sank. The officer drew his pistols and told him he should drown or come out. Jones conld not swim, but lie maintained bis position nntil the officer reached him and dragged him out. He was searched, and there was fonud on him a wallet containing $348, of the de nominations of one’s, two’s, three’s, five’s, and ten’s, on the Springfield, Miami Valley, and Marion branch es of the Ohio Stute Banks. The Officers then went to the Frauklin House and got bis carpetbag, and brought it and the prisoner over tbe river, aud lodged him in the watch house. The carpet bag was searched, and found to contain counterfeiter’s tools, several different colored inks in small bottles, and bank noto paper ; also several sheets filled up with imitated signatures of bank offi cers. They also found on him a bill for 200 sheets of bank note paper, bought of Butler A Brother, Dec. 20th, 1852. It has also been Ascertained that he has passed himself off in dlfiercnt places os Jones, tho en graver, in this city. Since is arrest, Mr. Jones the engraver, has recog nized him as one who had several times visited his of fice to see Lamb, nowunder arre.it on charge of steal ing the sheets of tho Ohio State bills. The officers also have information which convinces them that he filled up the signatures on those bills. His examina tion will probably not take place until Monday or Tuesday. Trial or Bishop Donne. Camden, N. J., Sept. 19th. The Court of Bishops re-assembled here this morn ing. Bishop Doane occupied the whole morninj with his speech in reply to Bishop Mclivaine, am the question in regard to quashing the presentment will hardly be reached to-day. [second despatch.] Camden, Sept. 12. Bishop Doane concluded hla speech about 2 o'clock, when the Court adjourned till to-morrow. The vote will then bo taken to decide whether tho case is to be tried or uot. The Muscadine. Our renders are awure that this is an indigenous grape of the south, tho leaf and vino of which are precisely like the Scuppernong. The fruit, however, ITbf a dark purple color with a thick skin and grows in small clusters os the other. On tbe rioh river and creek bottoms we have seen thorn of very largo size, and esteemed them os a most delicious fruit. But this was before the Scuppernong was Introduced among ua to any extent. Mr. Seth W. Roberts, one of our citizens who has great taste for horticultural t uraulta, seems disposed to contest the generally ac- nowledged superiority of the Scuppernong, and thinks he will yet be able to improve the Muscadiue to an extent that will at least surprise those who have conceived tbe idea that it possesses no particular merit. A couple of years ago he transplanted a vine into his grounds, liberally muunred it and pruned it very freely. The result is, he is rewarded this sea son with un abundance of fruit of remarkably large size—many of the berries measuring lull three inch es in circumference—and greatly improved flavor. Under Mr. Robert's cereful culture the Muscadiue may become as famous by and by as the Scoppernong.— Mobile Tribune. “Raising the Stem.—Yesterday tho imposing, and and to ship builders, from tbe conatrutor to the man that does tho least important work about a ship, in- teresling event or “raising u stem” occurred at the Gosport Navy Yard. But tne raisingof this stem was rendered doubly interesting on account ofita being a uew one to the "old Constellation“whose bread stripes and bright stars, so long have waved, o’er a laud of the free and the homo of tbe brave.” Atuight a collation in honor of tho occasion was spread out at the residence of Wm. D. Brown, Esq., on Middle street, which was bountiful in supply and "recherche" in quality. Sparkling wines, Ola Colum bia, London Dock and a plcaicnt intermixture of oth er beverages, graced one table, while edibles were convenient. Mr. Delano, tho popular naval construc tor of tbo yard, we understand had a largo share iu providing the repast at Mr. Brown’s, or which so largo a number during tbo evening partook. The bumping toast went round, drunk to Mr. Brown ; to Mr. Delann; to the Navy of the U. 8.; in memory of tho “Old Constellation,” and to tho success of the ••N**w;” to the Sccetary of the Navy; to the never setting stars of the Old Constellation and to the ris ing ones of tho now ; to the army, Ac.

The compliment, the joke, tbo patriotic senti ment*' passed from lip to ear, and every thing passed off plcasently.—Portsmouth Globe, 0th. A Conscientious Robber.—One Robert Macairo on Sundav evening last broke into the house of John P. Jewett, in Harrison-Avenue, Boston, while the family was ataent from the city. Tbo house was thoroughly ransacked from cellar to attic, and robbed of silver plate, jewelry and other articles, of the value of about $560. The tliiof left behind the fol lowing letter, written in a good running hand ? Sept. 4th, ’53.

The editor has seen the lady, and describes her as young, comely, educated and sprightly. She came from Kentucky, and is tarrying in the mountains with a view ol per fecting her title to somo thousands of acres of wild land, which descended to her from her ancestors, to whom it was patented for Revolutionary services, but is now claimed by a land pirate who formerly acted as her agent.

Tho highest notion of marriage that gen erally prevails at the present day, Is, that It Is a contract between the parties.pnjestelly founded upon tho consider ation of mutual love, and solemulted by tbe priest or mag istrate. Thus regarded, it Is a mere personal union.formed to promote natural and temporal pleasures, rather than spiritual happiness aud Heavenly bllM. Thus regarded, it contemplates the distinctions of sex. as fouiidiil alone in differences of physical orennixation, and therefore, that marriage, being only for the accommodation of such dis tinction* and their consequent dependencies, has reference only to the present life. Society and government treat It ana civil contract, and we tall for below IU high claims, If. by dignifying it aa a religious institution, we simply mean tliat It la of divine appointment. True marriage exists pri or to and is Independent of iu public solemnisation. The hymeneal vow, ti^ceremony anJ the nuptial feast are but the outward forrov or an inward union. Th* distinctions of sex do not consist in differences of natural organization only, but they are the resul s of real pre-existent distinc tions of mind. They are spiritual as well aa natural— psychical as well aa physical The body is but the form ami incarnation of the spirit—the body of a man that of a male, and the body of a woman, that of a female spirit. Truo marriago is the conjunction of two such spirits, brought together by the attraction or tbat Heavenly affinity ‘•———which binds In union 4weet according minds." Such bring the nature of true marriage, it is Impossible for it to be a mere temporal transitory connection. Nothing can dissolve it but a course of life by either party, which superinduces such a dissimilarity of moral state a* renders It Impossible for them to bo united in the spiritual world. Death cannot destroy the sexuality or their spiriU, nor the affinities tbat cemented their union. “ How swirt tho Heavenly coarse they run. Whose hearts, whose feitb. whose hopes are one I Age shall not cool tho sacred lire. Nor shall tho Haute with death expire, But brighter burn in Heaven above, A Heaven of Joy because of love." Viewed In this light, how exalted, how holy and hnw pure Is marriage'. Viewed in this light, there is beauty in iu emblematic signification of the union of our Lord with his Church. Viewed in this light, it is the well-spring of un utterable bappinc*' to the wedded pair, not only imparting delight ta-their employments and associatious here, but fur nishing a foretaste or celestial Joys. O! if our children, especially our daughters, were educated to these exalted views of the conjugal relation, It would soon transform the face of society. O! how they would discard, witli loathing and disgust those selfish and sordid considerations winch too often lead to it* formation. “That conjugal alliancesare often induced by mete world ly policy, all must admit. It is a crowing evil. How fee* quently do we see tho blooming brldo led lo tho altar, un der circumstances which negate the possibility of happi ness ! Ambitious of rank or position in society, she links her destiny with the unmitigated worldling, who never felt tho holy tenderness of love, and whose habits, pursuits and aims unfit him for the delight* and endearments of domes tic life. Tbe prodigal of a thousand moral otdiquities. if ho is dashing, haudsomo and rich—or the middle-aged gen tleman, if he has rank or political distinction, even without desert—or the miser, whoso heart is just as hard and aa small aa a silver dollar, wins his way to the citadel of wo man’s affections, more gallantly, than tho virtuous, if ob scure, or the meritorious, if poor. Irrespective ofsirollarL ty or uge and congeniality of tastes and sentiments, sho consents to be bis bride, and thus becomes tho victim of bis vices, or the cowed slave of his oppression.

W, ssSRSSSSBftS&JT' And then let virtue follow ir she will’"—Pont. There are two ideas in this splendid passage which are above tbe rango of common thought, and are therefore pronounced unscriptural. The one is the philosophical deduction from tbe differences of phys ical development observable in the male and female formations, that “ the distinctions of sex do not con sist in differences of natural organization only, bat they are the results or real pre-existent distinctions of mind.” True, this doctrine is not taught in scripture, but it is not therefore nnscriptural. It was this fool ish dogma, tbat whatever wu» not taught in scrip ture, was unscriptural, which induced the church of Kurne to deny that the earth revolved around the sun, and thus drew upon ita councils the derision of all philosophers. Or the position of Jndge Johnson we have no question. We know that the character of tne spirit of a man is indelibly stamped upon bis fea tures. Harsh features accompany harsh tempers; smooth and regularly rounded features are the sure index of a sweet disposition ; and so uniform is this rule, that Claverhouse, Duke of Dundee, is a wonder as well in the pages of history as iu those or fiction. Upon the same principle, and upon no other, can we explain the phenomenon that we always find in the female form gentle and feminine tastes and qualities. A masculine spirit in the form of woman is a mons trosity shocking to good taste and the order of nature. Strip Judge Johnson’s idea of its ornate and meta phoric adornment, and it is simply the announcement of the familiar truism, that the spirit of woman is geutle, sympathetic, and charitable; while that of man is bold, hard and selfish. The one is the spirit of woman, the other is tbe spirit of man. The «cx of the one spirit is female, while that of tbe other is male. The other idea iu the passage, which is alike origi nal ami beautiful, is that “ true marriage is the con junction of two such spirits, brought together by the attraction of that Heavenly affinity,” “ which binds In union swee- according minds," and tbat “ death cannot destroy the sextuallty of their spirits, nor the uffinities tbat cemented their union.” True, Christ teaches (Mat. 22,30.) that " in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in Heaven.” Judge Johnson does not hold an opposite doctrine— He does, however, bold that tbe holy affinities which are formed on earth are perpetuated in Heaven, un less a “ dissimilarity of moral Htate renders it impos sible for them to be united In the spiritual world,” a doctrine in accordance with tho holiest yearnings of humanity and palpably taught by Christ in the para ble of Dives and Lazarns. The rich man implored Lazarus whom he had fed, and not auotiicr, to cool his tongue, and Abraham, by the endearing epithet of " son," recognizes his earthly relation to the out cast. And shall these distant earthly associations be recollected in the spiritual world, and the divine union by which “ twain are made o'ne flesh," be for gotten? Shame on such a philosophy l which would rob Heaven ol half its glories and divest marriage of its divinest attributes. No, no, it cannot be true. The widowed heart would break under the blow which severs the marriage tie, were it not for the di vine hope that the disembodied spirit of the loved and lost hovered above our pathway to tho tomb, and will again meet us at the imital of death and bear ns upon Its golden wings to tue 11 house not made with bauds eternal in the Heatons.” We are astonished that any one should believe that in the spiritnnl world, the nice and beautiful distinc tions of male and female spirits are obliterated, aud that the varieties of character which they superinduce and which lend so fosciuating a charm to earthly as sociations, are all merged in the dead level of unifor mity and verisimilitude in that undiscovered countiy where every source of enjoyment here Is infinitely en larged, and where the Bible expressly teaches that there are angels aud arch-angels, and principalities aud powers. Whether our readers will agree with Judge John son in these truly beautiful and original ideas we know not. They wiM, however, find by reference to his address, that tno Book of Books is the source of his inspiration and bis chief reliance in every system of education. He says : . • * * “ Whatever books majr be omitted, in female education, there is one that cannot bo ; whatever ought to be studied, there is one that must be ; and that book is the Bible. It describes and enforce* every duty; it mirror* forth every gradation of character ; it sounds every depth of being; it scales the hleghts of immortality ;ft spans the infinitude of endless duration; it unfolds every sanction of eternal retribution, “ Most wondrous book! bright candle of the Lord! Star of eternity! the only star By which the bark of man can navigato The sea of life, and gain the coast of bliss Secvrely j only star which shines on time, And. on dark and troubled billows, still, As generation drifting swiftly by Succeed* generation* doth throw a ray Of Heaven’s own light, and to the hills of Gdd, The eternal hills, doth point the sinner’s iye. • • * * a . a a This book, this holy book ’« on every line, Marked with the seal of high divinity. On every leaf 'a bedewed with drops of lore Divine, and with eternal heraldry And signature of God Almighty stamped From first to last.” Wo have occupied so much space in the discussion to these truly original and teaching points of faith, that wc have no room for farther remnrlt npon the Address. It is alike creditable to his head and heart, aad indelibly stamps him as a finished scholar, a true gentleman, and an bumble and sincere Christian— His perception of the true position and real duties of woman is so vivid; bis picture of borne life, where woman fills her right place, is so beautiful; hit appre ciation of female excellence ao jost, tbat wo are led to tho conclusion tbat be moves in a family circle adorned by a true woman, whoso mind is stored with all nseful knowledge, whoso heart is filled with gen erous impulses, and whose hands are active in every noble charity. We commend the Address to every father and mother in Georgia. They may not iiko Judge Johnson's politics, but they will be charmed and beuefited by hit luminous Address uu Female Education.

Two Steamboats Destroyed by Fire.—About hall-past one o’clock Thursday morning, the steamer North America was discovered to be on fire. The flames spread so rapidly that ao effort wus made to save her. The steamers Clara and Europn were lying beside her, and the flames were soon commuuicatcd to them. The Europn was cat loose, and by the ac tive exertions of those on board saved from total de struction. Stic was, however,considerably damaged. The Clara was entirely destroyed. The fire is sup posed to be the work of an Incendiary-Cin. Nonp. The following is an extract from a commercial let ter, from Antwerp, dated August 2d, received by Mr. Wenkelman.of Baltimore: “ The excitement iu the grain market is as great as it was in 1846 and 1847. and the prices are continually advancing. Stocks on hand small, and no sellers: but a large business is done in cargoes of wheat under way from the Baltic, at prices from 14| to 15 guilders. The demand for wheat for exportation, particularly to France, where the crops are represented to he lighter aud stock smaller than in 1846, is very great.” From the Rio Grande.—By tho arrival yesterday of the steamship Yacht, wc arc in possession of Brownsville dates to the 3lst uit.
