and the other Whig leaden, end they hare devoted
tbemeeiree daring the present cmvm* to rallying »
party, without refennoe to the name to he gtota it,
by which that war ta to be carried on. Fiutca’s
and the Democratic party are to be
broken down, and the Whig party, with Bkwabd,
Evjuurrr and Cobww as It* great men, is to bo
brought into power. If Messrs. Jknxixs A Co can
destroy the popularity of Pubcm and. his administra
tion, tbs way to the Presidency will be open to Wm.
H. 8*wa*» or Tom Cobwuc at the neat election.
People of Georgia—Democrats—friends of the
Bonth-yon who are opposed to the farther agitation
of the slavery qoestton, will yon sustain a President:
all or whose efforts are given, in accordance with his
solemn word, to prevent aggressions upon oar rights ?
Never has there been a chief magistrate, from the
dftjrs of Washington until now, whom It was more
important to the Booth to support than Pibbcb. From
/ youth forward, his whole life has been given to the
work of allenclug aatielavery agitation. Crush him
and the Democratic patty, apd Bswabd, as the fa*
write, of authority of the Whigs, stands abetter
ehsnee than any other man to he onr next President.
And yet the overthrow of Pibbcb gnd Democracy la
the ensuing election is tho great object aimed at by
the Conservative Whig leaders of Georgia.
Shall they succeed? Shall the administration, to
the great joy of its enemies throughout the North,
goffer a defeat in this State by the election or Jbn*
ins as Governor, and opponents of Pibbcb in a ma
jority of our Congressmen? To the voters In the
First District we directly appeal. Will yon aid
Messrs. Babtow and Jenkins in their warfare upon a
President who stands between you and the aggres
sions of ’abolitionism ?
The eyea or the people of other States are now Ax
ed opon you. The New York Heraid says : “ The
last chance to the administration for the practical en
forcement of Democratic harmony hinges opon the
Georgia election.* In this light the local canvass in
that State rises to the dignity ot a national issue, in
volving the reconstruction or reduction of the Na
tional Democratic party rank and fllo.” Let every
Democrat determine not only himself to vote for the
administration candidates, Johnson and Sewakd,
but to exert all the influence which zeal and activity
can exercise, to secure tor them the votes of other*,
t Do this and the success of both and a triumph for the
administration will bo as glorious as they are certain.
Ttae Keystone State*
We had thapleasure yesterdayjnornlog ofwelcom-
lug this elegant steamer to oor port, after a run of
but fifty-six and a half hours from tho city of Brother
ly Love. Yesterday we took a glance at her external
ly and internally as she lay at her wharf. Her build
ers may well be proud of her os a specimen of naval
architecture,*and the city of Philadelphia may well
be proud of the artlzans whose handiwork has been
so admirably displayed in every department or her
structure, Adornment and furnishing. When opened
for Inspectloitof the Philadelphia public, the Built
tin, of that city gave the following accurate descrip
tion of the vessel: 11 She U 231 feet in length, and is
furnished with a moat superior slddftver engine of
100 hone power. The cyllhder Is 80 Inches la diameter
arid 8 feet stroke. The upper sajoon Is beautifully
furnished, the sides being adorned with pilasten
painted with China gloss, and relieved with gold car
vings. A sky-light in this saloon is embellished with
stained glass which is appropriately ornamented with
. the coats of arms or Pennsylvania and Georgia,
and with views of different objects of Interest in both
States. The dining-room, the ladles’parlor, and the
smooklng room are all elegantly furnished and con
veniently arranged. The ship contains forty-six state
rooms, each of which will accommodate tbreo persons.
They are all elegantly and comfortably furnished and
proglflcd. lathe lower saloon, the furniture is of
the richest descriptloffbut of a different style from
that in the Upper Saloon. In -addition to the gold
and white which also prevail on the walls oBbls sa
loon, they are adorned by pannels ol highly polished
grained woods. There is also a library in this apart
ment. The pantry is a model of completeness and
compactness ; every thing that can bo required in a
well ordered establishment of the kind, ha* its ap
propriate place. The kitchen has arrangements for
cooklug for seven hundred persons. Tho ship Is
bountifully supplied with fresh water, which is con
veyed by means of pipes from tbo tanks to the wash
rooms and snob other parte of the vessel as it may
bo required! There are also places for storihg Ice,
and complete arrangements for preserving meats,
vegetables, &o. .
*• The arrangements for ventilation are also worthy
of special notice. In all her details and appoint-
monte, In the quarters for her officers and the accom
modations for the crew, the Keystone State is with
out a rival; while her superior speed and safety will
Insure her a great popularity.”
As a gentleman and experienced Beaman Captain
Babdib, her commander, is already too well known
to require anything at onr bands. Uo is in all respects
worthy so noble a vessel, and the vessel Is worthy so
noble a commander; and this wo mean as no empty
expression towards one who occupies such an import
ant relative position in the commerce and Intercourse
of oor country. Wc look upon the Keyttont State as an
additional oord which binds us closer together as a
pcople-anotber sinew in the bond of anion and fra
ternity; and as inch we again welcome her to her
field of labor and usefulness. May gentle breezes
fan her brow r and the tide of prosperity with her nev
er ebb. ,
• The steamer is to be open for public inspection
to-morrow. Ladies are respectfully invited to visit
her from 11A.M. till 3 P. M„ and gentlemen at i

Matrt. RdOort: While travailing recently to the upper
part of the State, we have beta ashed, will Chatham aap-
port the nomination <4 Mr. Seward? WUI
repudiate him because be comae from another section of
th# District? Will the forget how the Weet rallied around
tha ataadard of the gallant lackson? And will aha now al
low the bitter enemy ot the administration to be elected,
and suffer iu friend and advocate to be debated f As often
ee these questions were asked, we were pat to it what an
swer to make.
Your editorial of Thursday has jnst been read, and the
writer asks, can It be true that any of the Democratic
leaders, in your city, hare abandoned their posts and goes
over to tha enemy? Is Mr. Seward to be proscribed be
cause be Is not a college-bred .man, and because he hails not
from Savannah? If this bs ao, proclaim It to the world,
publish it abroad that onr youth, if they chance, from the.
poverty or negligence of parents, to be denied the advan
tages of a liberal education, need not look forward to honor
and preferment—that there are for them no incentives to
Industry, energy and perseverance. The avenues to dis
tinction are closed against them. Though they surmonnt
every obstacle and triumph over every disadvantage, and
thus M&educated and aelf-sustained present the most equi
table claim tifbe called * nature’s noblemen," yet as they
have never been to college, to no post of honor, in the gift
or the people, may they ever hope to attain. Voters of
tha First Congressional District, is such your decitlen?
Again, is Mr. Ssward unfit to represent you, because be
comes from tbe mire gnus, (or which the opposition to
sneerittgly tannt him? Is every man who lives in the
country to be proscribed ? And Is no man fit to represent
you, unless he has received the gloss and tbe polish of city
life? Away with such bigotry! We of the country have
no hard feelings towards Savannah. We lore her—we
would cherish bet—we rejoice in her prosperity—we boast
of her enterprise—we glory in her progresa—and we bid
her God speed In her great work of improvement. Now
we wish these kind feelings reciprocated. The people of
tbe country wish to cultivate a close intimacy with Savan
nah, and to be bound to her by alill stronger ties. But
does such bigotry, as some of the Democracy have maul-
tested In the rejection of tbe people’s candidate, tend to
strengthen them? Surefy not.
But we do not think that tbe opponents of Mr. Saward
have adopted the wiseet policy to promote the interests of
8avannab. Mr. Seward will have it more in his power to
further those interests, though he does come from tbe mire
grota, than Mr. Bartow will hara. Tbe latter will be in op
position to the administration, while the former will be
backed by a Congress and a President of like political faith
with himself. Does not every one see that Ur. Seward can
do more, ST Washington, for the intoreste of Savsnnsh
than Mr. Bartow can ever hope to do? For what can the
Utter expect from an administration which he has abused
and denounced even in advance of iU action, and to which
he hit attributed opinions which It has never held ? These
truths are so plain that it seems superfluous to dwell npon
them. Wbst excuse then can any Democrat of Savannah
have for casting his vote for Mr. Bartow?
And now to conclude, bo assured, Democrats of Chat
ham, that tha eyes of the District and or the 8Uteare
fixed upon yon. It there are’ any who have heretofore
been regarded as leaders and high priests among you, tell
them, If they falter now, terrible will be the reckoning
against them. For the men are known, and Ike hand writ-
top is upon the wait. Shall the other counties appeal to tbe
honest voters of Chatham In rain ? No. We are proud to
believe that you will nobly respond to the call end redeem
old Chatham from tbe false position in which she seems to
be placed. Though Ute, arouse and show your elves
“ sleepers whose waking is terribio," and. let your well
known and familiar battls shout be beard tbe loudest, urg
ing on tbe columns of tbo Democracy to accustomed vic
tory.
, But one word to the other counties, and we are done.—
Think not, because a few have wavered, that tbe whole De
mocracy of Chatham have surrendered. There are many
noble hearts and strong hands who will rally to your aid,
and bear tbo banner of tbo party proudly and nobly on to
glorious victory. Success will follow if you be true men—
If you be Ann—if you resolve to put down the opposition
of the few in Savannah, who arrogate to themselves all tha
talent In the District, and who think themselves tbo only
men In it worthy of Congressional hodors. --
Erratum*.
Correspondence of the Savannah Georgian.
Jotkrsoxtox, Camden Co., Sept. 20,1863.
Matrt. Editors r—It was with feelings of regret that 1
perused an article signed by one calling himself A Voter, in
your paper of the 15th Inst., reflecting upon tbe character
of the old democracy of this county. Nutbing can appear
more ridiculous than writing little newspaper articles for
the purpose of exposing to Ihe world our little political dif
ferences, as if any person but citlxens of this county, feel
any interest in the subject further than to know that John
son and Seward will receive an overwhelming majority in
October next
Should there bo any difference of feeling among the real
democracy, every such article tends to make still wider the
breach here, and weaken our cause elsewhere. Influenced
by such feelings, I would bo willing to permit the publica
tion to kill Jtseir by its own great weight, and tako no further
notice ot it, did It not place the whole Democratic party,
with a few honorable exceptions, la a false position.
The true statement of the case, and as things happened,
is as follows:—A meeting was held In this county, on the
fith of August last, for the purpose of nominating candidates
for thp next Legislature, and in consequence of having no
opposition here, very little interest was excited, on account
of which there were but few present. As often happens on
such occasions, a nomination was made, not at all in ac
cordance with the wishes of the majority of the Democratic
party here. AS wo hold to the old and truly honored doc
trine, that In ail such cases the j«wer exists in tbe people,
and the float appeal is to them.
In order to satisfy all difference of feeling and quiet, so
much as possible, this Utile political storm, another meet
ing was called, to take place on tbe 27th or the same month,
which was largely and fully attended. One of the gentle
men (Dr. Furman) who hsd been nominated at the first
meeting, was present and refused to allow hisname to come
before the people thus assembled, consequently It was gen
erally understood that he would run upon his own respon
sibility. Tho meeting was organized by calling to the Chair
Colonel J. T. Clough, and appointing Messrs. George King
and C. J. F. Caldwell Secretaries. Tho first motion was,
whether this meeting would sustain or rqjcct tbe nomina
tions of tbe previous meeting, it was almost unanimously
agreed to pursue the latter course. It was then proposed
to proceed to nominate candidates, when L. D. D’Lyon. Esq.,
of St. Marys, introduced a resolution to so do by ballot, to
wbicb Dr. T. K. Dunham proposed an amendment, that a
majority of all the cola catt should be necessary for a choice,
which resolution, as amended, was adopted; the voting
then commenced, and upon counting, the Chairman deci
ded that there had been no choice according to tbe amond*
cd resolution. There was about 80 votea taken, and Mr.
Furman received 27 of them. I would be pleased to learn
by what rule is 27 made the half of 80, or to be called a
majority.
Tbe balloting consuming much time, and some gentlemen
being present whom the people were anxious to hear speak,
It was proposed th|t a nomination be made by acclama
tion, and resulted In tha nomination of N. J. Patterson for
tbe Senate, and J. G. 8milh for the Bouse.
This proposition to a nomination rfoa voce, was made im
mediately after it was announced from the Chair that the
vote by ballot had not resulted iu a choice. We do not pre
tend to understand what tbe Voter means by saying that
something •* more harsh” will be said If hit statement is
contradicted, but if be expecta to frighten us from a true
position, he U mistaken.
In conclusion. I must remark that l hare been truly as
tonished at tbe Tery gross errors into which A Voter has
alien, by his first statement, that the nomination of Mr.
Turman was confirmed by tha last meeting, when the first
•<etion of that meeting waa to set aside his nomination, and
-bat be received a majority of the votes, when he received
inly 27 out of ^80 east. (Not wishing to doubt the gentle-
nan’s veracity,) we are forced to the conclusion that the
Voter was not present at the last meetirg, or if there,
-ouble," or had a very large brick in his hat. No doubt,
, tier he wakes from his mesmeric dream, and takes a sober,
«ond thought, he will be as much surprised at his own
.’istsments, as I was to see bis publication.

bate, thaa tha promt; aadltUour parpaaa, ta aatkr ae

of fioeta—^ nothing extenuating, or retting down aught In
malt*." •
We cannot tay epeaklng la all good oonedenca—that w#
went there with any great leaning toward* either of tbe
candidates. Wc were prepared to hoar their views, wtib
an earnest desire to epatour preference for him who seemed
most worthy of tha confidence of the people; and which
party that waa—which of theta manifested la the end the
moat straightforward, manly and open course—we leave It
to yon, the people of tbe First Diitriet, to judge. The de
bate waa opened by Mr Bartowj who waa allowed an hour
and a half to apeak, to be followed by Mr. 8eward, who waa
to apeak two hours. After he had closed, Mr. Bartow wa*
allowed half ao hour to explain.
Wa were prepared to expect much from 1 Mr. Bartow, but
we confete we were much disappointed. Hie manner, de
livery and tone t>f voice, were ati, we thought, pompous and
overstrained—his gesticulation accompanied with a great
deal of drawing up hie collar, and waving a spacious
white handkerchief; and we could not hut think that the
omnipotent Ego waa heard a little too often for good taste.
But let that pass. When be closed, we think It would bare
punled a Philadelphia lawyer to tell what hi* principle*
were. He consumed’ nearly tho whole of hie time in re
peated assertions that be had never entertained any hos
tility towards the Brunswick Boad—pronounced himself it*
earnest friend—nay. eveo its champion—and In feet im
plied that be bad never, in any manner, or by any means,
uttered a word against the eald road. He said not a wort
In reference to national policy—elated that on reading the
Inaugural addrete of Preeldent Pierce he bad given him his
support and confidence, hut withdrew it on the formation
of his Cabinet. He extolled Charles J. Jenkins to the skies,
and vice verta vilified Ilerschel V. Johnson, and proclaimed
that he had never been before the people in any capacity-
abused the Secessionist* ad libitum, and stated that if he
were elected to Congress he would go there with the Geor-
gla platform in his haad, aad would force Preeldent Pteree,
his Cabinet, and both Houses, (o walk up and to* tbe mark
of its principle*. We confess we oould’not forbear a smile
at hearing thU very grandiloquent address from the little
gentleman, who seemed to talk aa If be verily believed he
could, in sober truth and reality, sway tbe whole govern
ment by his indignant eloquence, aided by the Georgia
Platform. It would be doing him injustice not to say, how
ever, that his manner and address—whatever their faults,
were perfectly those of a gentleman; and, perhaps, hsd he
occupied the field alone, all might have gone well with him.
But. as hs sat down, Mr. Seward rose.
W* think it would be dlfflcult for any one to lUten to
this gentleman without feeling convinced- that he spoke
from his heart: that in the s!‘gbt nervous form, the up
raised arm—quivering with the excitement of ferrtd and
indignant eloquence—in the animated countenance and
fla*hlng eye—tbesp were all the evidences of a man who
felt that he uttered “ the truth, the whole truth, and
thing but the truth." He explained his present party po
sition with great frankness and candor—commented with
much good Mate upou tho put and present position of
parties—answered all of Bartow’s charges against President
Pierce triumphantly, and in his turn attacked Charles J.
Jenkins with a vigor and success that rapidly stripped him
or the laurel crown which Mr. Bartow bsd so laboriously
placed npon his brow. In regard to Ilerschel V. Johnson,
he placed that gentleman in his true colors. *• That gentle
man,” said ho ** states that Mr. Johnson has never been
before the public. Has bt forgotten that he served in the
United States Senate, where his lofty talents andstateamau-
like abilities gave him at once a position of the loftiest
kind ? Hu he forgotten that he bu been upon the Bench
In the State of Georgia, where his talents were surpassed
by none ? And II he hss never been in our State legisla
ture, it is simply because he lives in a county whose politics
are antagonistic to his own." In one word, we are compel
led to say—and from our soul we believe we say It unbl.
used by any prejudice of party opinion—that Mr. 8eward
made a most able and triumphant exposition of his princi
ples ; that he overturned tbe arguments of Mr. Bartow in
every Instance; and we cannot conceive how any one could
listen to the debste and not corns away strongly impressed
in favor of Mr. 8. And we unhesitatingly say, that such
will be found to be the case where the mind is not warped
aud clouded by the vapors of ignorance and prejudice.
But the coup At grace remained to be dealt by this deadly
and nervous arm. There wu not, I am satisfied, a soul in
that house who did not believe that Mr. Bartow bad moat
distinctly denied that he had ever, In any manner, taken a
position, or uttered an opinion, adverse to the interests of
the Brunswick Iteilroad. We were, therefore, deeply Inter
ested and startled when Mr. Seward remarked, that in sim
ple Justice to himself he felt compelled to moke one state
ment. He had been accused, through the preflfc, of attempt
ing to make the Brunswick and Florida Iteilroad a party
issue with his opponent; but so for from such being the
case, it wu generally understood—nay, even a matter
street conversation—that Mr. Bartow had assumed a po
sition opposed to the Interests of the road. And he further
stated, emphatically and distinctly, that he had heard from
persons whose authority ho could not doubt for a moment'
that Mr, Bartow had written a letter containing an argu-
jnent against the success or expediency of the road, lie
wu here asked by Mr. B. who those parties were. Mr. 8
replied, *• I)o you deny it, sir? for If you do, I will produce
the proofs." Mr. B. still insisted on knowing who wore his
informants—to whom the letter wu written, Ac., and Mr.
S., with equal pertinacity, required that Mr. B. should plead
non esf/’orium, before be did so. In this, Mr. B. conceived
himself harshly used; and certainly, in his new character
of politician, must lujre forgotten his former one of lawyer
in demanding that a party should be put upon his proof
before there is an Issue joined. Hu refused, however, to
assume that position, and eo Mr. Seward got through, and
sat down amidst thunders of applause, whilst we all turned
Impatiently towards Mr. Bartow, awaiting his explanation
of this roost extraordinary affair, with intense interest. Ho
rose:
‘•A good deal had been said," waahla reply, in tones of
well afiected bittei ness and scorn, “abqut Republicanism.
What kind of Republicanism wu this? Did it belong to
the Roman Inqulaltlon, or did it partako of the apirlt of the
laws of Turkey ? Thla republicanism, which sought to drag
forth to the light the private thoughts of a gentleman—to
force him to exhibit his private correspondence, Ac. He
went on to explain—and we intend to do full justice to bis
explanation—tiist an early friend of his. Judge H.. of Thom-
uville—had written to him, requesting his opinion upoi
the subject of the road. That he had replied In the letter
in point. He had then told him that he disliked very much
to meddle with the matter—that he feared to awaken bad
feelings, Ac.’; but Uistonaccountof oldftlendshlp he would
let him hare his opinion. Judge H. showed the letter to
Mr. Johnson, the editor of the Thomasvilie Watchman, and
thus it hsd get abroad In the community, until it had got
to be publicly discussed In the streets. He adverted to the
fact that certain gentlemen in Clinch County had written
to him through tho press, ssking him in reference to this
very letter—and that he had not answered them, u he
wished to seo them foce to face upon the subject." Such
was the sole explanation made of this most grave and
serious charge. We ought to mention that these state-
menta were corroborated by Mr. Johnson and Judge H.
And now Mr. Editors, indulge us sa humble citizens, with
a fow remarks also upon the subject, for 'we solemnly de-
clare to you, that as men who 4 love onr country and our
country’s good," wo cannot withhold from declaring aloud
our sentiments upon their moat monstroue and unheard of
affair. How Mr. Bartow could yesterday so ostentatiously
hold himself out to his audience aa the friend of that enter
prise-how ho could lead them to believe that be had nev-
er, in any manner, opposed It—when be knew that that lot-
ter had'been writteo by hi* own right hand, is no business
of ours. It rests with his conscience and his God. But as
a citizen of a free country, there are principles connected
with it we are compelled to denounce, and there are circum
stances involved, of which we have a right to demand a
full explanstlon, tjiat the peoplo may Judge if Mr. Bartow
be Indeed that " good, true and foitbful servant," by whom
alone they would be represented. Mr. Bartow seemed to
think be had set the matter at rest by declaring it to be a
private tetter; and that being such, its writing did not in
any manner conflict with any declaration he had made of
non-opposlUoq. Citizens of the First District I hear ye this
most monstrous doctrine. A man may come before you, a
candidate for your confidence, an asplrantfor the honors in
your gilt, and mar profess himself the advocate of any great
principle, so long as he opposes it not on the publte stand
or in the public pres*,—but (oh doctrine worthy of Machla-
veil! i) be may at tbe same time write to a hundred indi-
vtdualsprioafefy, arguing with all tbe force of his ability
against that measure! Talk of tho. Raman Inquisition—
why this is tbe very essence of its principles. Public ar
guments rosy be mst-^ubtic speeches replied to; bat in
this underhand, snake-like, mofejof procedure, who Is to
detect and denounce tho gilded sophism or rebuke tbe dar
ing falsehood. And yet citizens 1 such are the principles,
openly and without a blush, advooatod by a candidate for
tbe high and responsible office of your Representative,
Now we say to Mr. Bartow, and we say to Judge H. -
demand the publication qf every tyUMe qf that tetter relative
la the Brunswick and Florida Bail Road. W# ask for no

Horrible Tragedy,
On 8atnrday evening, says the Shreveport Demo*
crat ot the 6tn Inst., about sundown, there happened,
about tour mltea from town, at a place called tbe
M Four Mile Spring,” a terrible affair, in which two
men lost tbeir Uvea. The parties were Sydney Ker-
ley, who resided at the 8prings, and Thos. Givens, a
drover from Texas. The circumstances, ns we gath
ered them from the testimony given on tbe occasion,
were as follows: Ur. Kerigy kept a house of enter
tainment, and Mr. Givens reached there a few days
previous with a drove of catUe, consisting of about
twenty head.. On Saturday they bad a settlement,
and Givena waqabout to leave, but being intoxicated
abruptly enquired of Kerley, if he would swear that
be bad been tbere^five days. Kerley asked, in reply,
if be would besatlaOed if tbe fact could be proven.
Givens replied that be would. Kerley then told him
to leave tbe bouse aud tako bis cattle with him, and
be would make him a present of the bill, if he were
not satisfied.
After a few momenta, however, Given* swore that
he would not atand auch an insult. Kerley enquired
as to what he wauted. Givens, then repeated what he
had said, menacingly. Kerley arose from hia scat,
and walked into the room and took down hia shot gun
and, returning, informed Mr. Givens that if he re
peated what be bad said he would shoot him through.
Giveua rose from Ids Mat, placed his band on his re
volver, and deliberately repeated the offensive state
ment. Kerley discharged his gun inBtantly, the con
tents entering tbe cheat, wounding the stomach, liv
er and heart. But notwithstanding the dreadful
character of the wounds, he advanced two steps, and
discharged his revolver three times at Kerley, two
shot only taking effect, one in the arm, and tho oth
er m the abdomen, three inches below tbe navel.—
Both parties fell. Given lived about twenty minutes,
and Kerley about two hours and a half. Mr. Keriey
was about flily-flve years of age, and leaves a wire,
but no rbi|dren. Givens was a single man, about
thirty-fire years of age. The Coroner’s inquest de
cided in accordance with the above facte. John \Y.
Jones, Esq., acted os Coroner on tbe occasion.
The Kpldemtc.
The foil list of interments for the past week, from
tbe lltb to the 17th of September inclusive, in nil tbe
cemeteries In our city, presents a total of 365 deatbSf
Of this number 243 were of yellow fever, Including as
fever cases the small portion daily registered under
the head of" unknown,” and which are chiefly gon-
fined to oue cemetery. Aa compared with the record
of the previous week we find the diminution in the
whole nnmbcrof deaths to be 211, and of deaths by
Yellow Fever, 217. •
Since our last report the various Infirmaries have
been closed, as the Charity Hospital has abundant
room to accommodate the indigent sick. Contribu
tions to a considerable amount have flowed in upon
U8 during tbe week, though the stream is now be
ginning to abate. Thanks to the uustinted generosi
ty of our frienes abroad, the ample supply of funds
lias enable Its dispensers to minister relief to thous
ands of the suffering poor, who but for this timely
aid, must have swelled tbe large huge list of unfortu
nate victims.—N. O. Bee, 19/A.
.Louisiana Interior.
The Baton Bongo Comet says that tho Board of
Selectmen have appropriated f1000 for the relief of
tbe sufferers, in addition to which liberal subscrip
tions have been made by tbe citizens. Tbo same pa
per says that two out or the band of seven men who
so nobly volunteered their services to assist tho sick
in this city, have fallen in tbo service.
Yellow Fever at Alexandria, La.—The Louisi
ana Democrat, of Alexandria, of the 13th irut.,comes
asa half aheet, with tho prefatory editorial remark
that all hands were Biuk, and no assistance could be
got. This is followed by the following accouut of le
ver prevailing there :
Since our last some six or seven persons have died
of fever. Four died yesterday. Tills, we think, will
be the maximum. It fa due to truth to aay that those
who have died were, with a single exception, we be
lieve, In a state of the most appalling destitution i
to the time that they received the prdtnpt and el
dent attention of the Rapides Charitable Association.
But, unfortunately, tbe fever, invited by a oondition
of things and a want of tho common necessaries of
life, upon which U be painful to dwell, run its fatal
career.
The Harrisonburg Independent of the 14th instant
nays they have been favored with all kinds of weath
er in that parish (Catahoula), and adds :
During this and last week we have conversed with
numbers of our plauters, and they assure us that they
will make an average crop. Many of them inform us
that they have seen the caterpillar in their fields,
but. us yet, bas done no damage. Our planters have
. mado an abundance of corn, fodder, potatees.htc.—
'Surely, ought not peace, joy and happiness to reign
in tbeir midst ?
Tho Farmervilio Inquirer of tbo 10th Bays :
The weather has been cloudy and cool for the last
week. The cotton crop in this Parish, from nil ac
counts, will be a good one.
Tub Hubrioane^—This week will long bo remem
bered in our parish, owing to the hurricane which
swept over onr fields in tbe early part of it, laying
whole acre* of tbo finest enne waste. Tbe rein fei
in torrents, and the demon of the storm, hurrying
through space, left nothing but ruin aud devastation
in bis track.
Tiie Ship Habkaway.—This vessel, wbicb baa oc
cupied a conspicuous place in our columns for some
days past, arrived off the Bar yesterday afternoon, in
company with the steamship Southerner. After pro
curing a annply of provisions at Wilmington, N. C.,
the ship sailed from New inlet Bar on Wednesday
last, at 10& P. M.. before the arrival of the Southerner
at that point, tbe wind being at northwest. On
Thursday, at 6 P. M., about seventy miles east-north
east of Charleston, fell in with the Southerner, and
kept her company to the Bar. We learn that the
ship has a full cargo of guano, and that everything
on board appears to bo in good condition. The wat
er in tbe bold has becu got down to about eighteen
inches, and the pumps suck at that point. Tbe ship
will be tewed into port as soon as possible.—CAa*.

Railroad8.~The Kanawha Virginia Republican
states, that of the forty-five miles between Big Sandy
and the Kanawha Rivers, thirty-two are in the hands
of tbe contractors, and tbe work upou-them has been
commenced.
Tho double track on the Hudson River Railroad is
now completed between Poughkeepsie and Cold
