Little Children.
I am fond of children. 1 think them the poetry of
the world—tho fresh flowers of onr hearths nnd
homos; little conjurors, with their "natural magic,"
envoking by their spells what delights and enrlohes
all ranks, and equalizes the different classes of soci
ety. Often as they bring with them anxieties and
cares, and live to occasion sorrow and grief, wo should
get on very badly without them. Only think, if
there were never any thing anywhere to be seen but
great grown-up men and women I Now we should
long for tho sight of a little child 1 Every infant
comes into the world like a delighted prophet, the
liarblngor and herald of good tidings, whose ofllco it
is " to turn the hearts ortho fathers to the children,"
and to draw "the disobedient to tho wisdom of tho
just." A ohild softens and purifies the heart, warm
ing and melting it by its gentle presence; it enriches
the soul by new feelings, and awakens within it what
is favorable to virtue. It is a beam of light, a foun
tain of love, a teacher whose lessons few can resist—
Infants recall ns Irom much that engenders and en
courages selfishness, that freezes the affections,
roughens the manners, indurates the hoart; they
brighten tho home, deepen love', Invigorate exertion,

life. It would be a terrible world, Ido think.if it
was not embellished by lififilo children.—Rev- i. Bin-

SAVANNAH, GA-:
FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 28, 1853.
From tho New York Commercial Advertiser, 23.
Religious Intelligence.
Tiro monthly meeting of tho managers of the Mis
sionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church
was held on Monday lost at tbo mission rooms. Tho
Tin; Rev. Homan Bangs presided.
The corresponding secretary reported, as tho result
ol his observations in the Western conferences, a
greatly increased devotion to the missionary cause,
and an average increaso of contributions of at least
fifty per cent.
It was announced by the corresponding sooretary
that tho noxt anniversary of the socioty would bo hold
at Cincinnati, on the first Sabbath in December when
all tho Bishops of the oburch will bo present, and also
a largo delegation from every considerable place in
tho West. A delegation of five from the board was
appointed to attend. If we remember correctly, tbo
following constitute tho delegation : Rev. Dr. Bangs,
Rev. Dr. Durbin, Rev. Mr. Carlton, Rev. Abel 8tevens
aud B. L. Fancher, Esq. Tho meeting, it is expected,
will be ono of great interest.
Missionaries are still wanted for varions places,
and it is quite uncertain when tbo culls lor Japan
will bo met.
It was announced that a missionary with bis fami
ly would leave this city in a few days for Norway.—
He will proceed via Liverpool and tho North of Eng
land.
Tho Rev. Daniel Lee, one of the first missionaries
sent to Oregon, was present: and a remark that fell
from tiiat gentleman Is worthy of record. He, with
his uncle, the Rev. Jason Lee, were the pioneers of
the mission in Oregon. Thoy went by the overland
route, when it was only known to the few trappere
and traders who bod preceded them; yet they arrived
In safety, and planted their mission among the In
dians. At that time the oblef, if not almost the only,
mode of communication with the States was by tue
Hudson Bay Company’s annual express: and some-
times it ocoupied fifteen or sixteen months to obtain
an auswer to a letter from Oregon sent to this olty.
Indeed we believe on one occasion it was nearly two
years before an answer was received to official com
munications sent by the board, and In that casono
unnecessary delay took place. The .change Is very
marked; far slnceRhe Introduction of steam, and tho
establishment of aline of steam packets by Messrs.
Aspinwall A Co., botweon this olty and the Colombia
River, we have received letters and papers twenty-
six days after they left Oregon. We con hardly de
sire greater despatch: certainly no reasonable person
can expect it.
The intelligence from China is of an unpleasant
character, owing chiefly to the disturbed state of the
country, the death of one of the missionaries, and the
illness of some of the others.

18th Inst, the Rev. George W. M usgrave, D. D., re

Railroad Connection between Florida nnd
Other States.
The important relation which Cuba Is for all timo
to bear to tho American Union, whether an integral
portion thereof or not, shows most clearly tho neces
sity of a connection between tho railway systems of
tho coantry and some poiut In tho Florida Peninsula
as near to that Island as can bo easily reached. That
point would probably bo found on Tamba Bay
Charlotte Harbor. Either of these Is within afow
hours run, by a fleet steamer of Havana.
In a contest with England, France, and Spain
with either of them growing out of our relations with
Cuba, it will be a matter of the first importance for
onr government to be able readily to accumuluto a
strong military force In Florida. The difficulty of do
ing this with an enemy la possession of the ocean,
through the communications by land which we now
possess, would bo extreme. On the other hand with
a railroad from Tampa to Savannah—tho latter con
nected as she is, or soon will bo, with the West and
Nortli-west, the North and the East—to pour down a
hundred thousand armed men Into Florida with pro
visions to support them, would bo tho work of scarce
ly a weok. " .. .
Tho great argument with us in favor of Savannah’s
making her proposed railroad couuecn*m wiiu Flori
da at a point not farther than Hamilton county, ever
ban iwon that Hamllion la,jn a sufficiently direct lino
towards the most important localities on tho Gulf
side of tho Peninsula; which is not true of auy couu-
ty lying west of Hamilton.
We add thou, to what wo have already said, that
tho critical and vitally important relations whioh
Cuba is assuming towards tbis coantry, Bhould give
new impetus to this city’s movements for a railroad
iu the direction of the Gulf of Mexico. What other
wise might be regarded as a pecuniary and commer
cial enterprise, thus viewed, becomus a great work of
patriotism.
Unquestionably tho moat exposed portion of tho
Union In case of a war between this country nnd any
European power having West India possessions, Is
Florida. Talk of a railroad to tho Pacific as a moans
of protecting California! we submit that railroads
connecting thoso already in existence with different
points on tho Gulf, are muoli more important for tho
protection of Florida--a State more exposed and far
weaker.
In tbo present attitude of our foreign relations the
General Government cannot, it seems to us, closo its
eyes to tho necessity of placing our sister State in a
less defenceless condition. To accomplish this, it
should not hesitate to givo every acre of lund which it
owns In Florida, forthe construction ofsuch railroads
as might facilitate communications between her most
oxposud and important points, and the other States-
That it will do something like this, wo can hardly
donbt.ifnn application, undor proper auspices, bo
mado to the noxt Congress.
These views are very crudely presented—yet we
hopo they may bo the means of directing pablio at
tention to tho questions to whioh they relate. Wo es
pecially hopo that our recently organized railroad
company will see their bearing npon at least one
branch of their enterprise, and be stirred up by these
and kindred and collateral considerations to apply all
their energies to the work bofore thorn. And let not
the liberality and jmbltc spirit of our citiznes be ap
pealed to in vain, by those now canvassing for sub
scriptions to the undertaking.
“That •800,0001*'
Tho Republican, of this olty, having inquired con
cerning the character of the Florida Railroad sub
scription, and tho Thomnavllle Watchman having in
timated that It might be bogus, the Tallahassee
Journal, of last Saturday, makes tho following reply:
“ Tho article in the Watchman camo undor our no
tice too late to mako any remarks upon it last week.
Tho editor has a keen scent after " bogus subscrip
tions. 11 Perhaps ho lives in a tainted atmosphere.—
WC hopo there Ms been no bogusing in building rail
roads to Thomosville. Possibly ho has beon troubled
with dreams of playing bogus himsolf, since his late
visit to Tallahossou, when be found out how easily
ono man, ovensuohan one as himself, could have
subscribed tho whole remaining stock here, and no
provision In the charter to binder him. The fact is,
our brother typo loet a glorious opportunity or im
mortalizing himself by making such a subscription.
It would have been a pretty movo In the railroad
game now contested between Brunswick and Bavnn-
nah, and must have put the latter in check, or forced
her to abandon tho notion of entering Florida as Tar
east ns Hamilton county, and so iiavb secured
Tuomarville on tub direct route to Pensacola.
There wore various considerations prompting thla
bold move. Bavannah had declared this to bo on or
near her preferred route. Brunswick had courted
her to uulto lu adopting it, aud this move would have
furnished a sufficient oxcuso for her violating her
pledge to Florida, or rather would have effectually
put it out of our power to fulfil our pledge to Savan
na!). Ho knew, the editor tells us, that “ the act
grunting this charter, though it was not so expressed
by tbo mover of tho bill, contemplated a road from
Pousacola Bay to the Georgia lino at Chattahoochee.
We have.” continues tho editor, “ conversed with a
g entleman of Florida who was a member of tbo Log-
Inturo at the timo of its passage, aud learn from him
that that was the intention of tho bill. It seems,
however, that no definite point was fixed upon where
tho road should strike Georgia, and our friends in
Florida intend to pssscss themselves of the broad
construction of the act, and make the point in Hamil
ton county. By this they will bo cuanled to build a
part of their Gulf Control Road. Tho Savannah and
Florida Road was scaccly thought of when this char
ter was granted.”
With all this knowledge of our intentions in Flori
da, and of tho strong inducements for Thomosville to
take tho step, the only wonder is that it was not ta
ken on the very first day our books were opened. It
did not require tbo payment of a dollar. Tho charter
could not bo forfeited for nou-ustr under five years,
that being the timo allowed to begin the work, while
twenty years more are granted to finish it. Thus
might tho rcdonbtablo editor havo had nil conflicting
anu rival interests at his feet, which, thanks to ''
want of nerve, have escaped such a dilemma.
In our judgment Florida, and especially tho Mid
dle District, Is greatly Indebted to those of her citi
zens who promptly spepped forward to avert all fu
ture danger of such a catastrophe. We were In orrur
the other day In saying thata# the stock to inako uj
the $800,000 was takon by tbo citizens of Loon. I.
was foresccninontlisTigo that a necessity might oc
cur to save tho charter from fulling into improper
hands, anil being used In a way hostile to tho railroad
interests of Florida, nnd authority was given to those
on tho spot to use other names besides their own in
pledging tho required amount of stock. There is no
bogus, no deception, no speculation practiced or in
tended by the movement. Tho pledge is mado " for
themselves and their associates," by those who have
tested public sentiment sufficiently to bo satisfied that
tho mass of their fellow-citizens nre prepared to sus
tain them. They deserve and enjoy as high a charac
ter for honor, integrity and sound judgment as any in
our community, aud we risk nothing in saying that
they will be fully sustained. They will find no lack
of "associates." The subscription is regularly ad
vancing. That in Leon now numbers over one hun
dred names, and has received an addition of $22,20(
to the stock within the week, and we repeat that not
lmlf tho citizens of the county have boon applied to,
while ve y few indeed decline subscribing.
Persons accustomed to tho prompt action of large
cities in such matters, may thluk this apprcnt tardi
ucss evidence of opposition, or of great indifference,
when it simply arises from the faetthat many of our
citizens who are usually expected to lake a lead in
public enterprises, have been absent all summer, aud
who. on their return, find much to keep them at home.
It is tho busiest season with all our planters, to su
periutend tho housing of their crops nnd preparing
them for market, and there has been no publio ex
citement to assemble pcoplo together. Measures arc
taken al*o for proceeding now to receive subscrip
tions in Jefferson, Madison and Hamilton—a tlibig
hitherto deferred for thn reasons obovo stated. Tnc
subject, however, has been much discussed nnd is
well understood in tlioso counties, and, thn.-m who hoot
4i.* .mw ur tuvimg tuerc, say Inal tlicir aggre
gate subscription will be bctwcou three and four liuu-
ared thousand dollars.
But we had no intention of extending our remarks
to tills length when wo begun, and we cioso them by
saying that every day’s observation convinces us that
there is a spirit 'aroused.which will not be bafllcd by
cither ridicule or trickery, and we call ou tho people
of Leon and tho wliolo Middle District to sustain it.
The puny warfare urged ogainBt it wo think has eveu
done good to tho causo It was intended to assail. The
citizens of Savannah are assured that thoy may act
with tho fullest confidence that Florida will stand up
to the square in the honest fulfilment of her pledges,
nnd that thoy will very Boon bo called on to redeem

Fire In 9XilledKe▼!lle•
A destructive fire broke out In this city tills morn
ing at abont 11 o’clock, consuming tho entire range
of stores and shops on the cast side of Wdyue-strcet
and including'all tho buildings extending back to the
alley leading from tho old building formerly known
as the " Olay Club Room " through tho square, op
posite tho Presbyterian Church, including the dwel
ling houso o;coplod by Col. N. C. Barnett, making
somo twenty-flyp in all.
The fire originated in a shed, back of Mr. Lords’s
carpenter's shop, and was doubtless tbo result of uc-
cident. The buildings being mostly old, burned with
great rapidity, a wind blowing most of the time,
from the Southeast.
Tho principal sufferers are Messrs. W. Lord, Dr. G.
Edwards, A. Oolloway, Cans, Singleton, Stetson,
Haygood, Conn, Haas, Newell, Little, Bell, D. M. Ed

shop.
Tho exact loss is not known. Many valuable
goods and groceries wore cousumod, and others great
ly injured in removing. The buildings on the oppo
site sido of Wayno-strect were saved with great diffi

Many of tho building burned were owned by S.

James Guthrie,
Washington. Oct. 22,1853.
Sir :—1 havo received your letter of the 17th lust.
It is not rav purposo to respond to the many posi
tions of that letter, becouso most of thorn bear their
contradiction upon Us faco. and others are too unim
portant to require refutation; aud also because, while,
In several phrases of it, admitting your implied obli
gation, as a man of houor, to act in accordance with
tho known policy of the Administration, and more
over. recognizing tho propriety and justice of that
policy by declaring that you yourself deprecated and
endeavored to prevent tho divisions now existing in
the Democratic party in your State, you nevertheless
indulged in a tenor of remark, as to various relations
of the subject, which not only impugns ifty motives,
but indicates an attituudon your part wholly inconi
patible with harmonious co-operation bctwcuu uh,
nnd the proper conduct of the business of the Gov
ernment.
Ono suggestion appedrs in your letter which de
mands unimadversou. You allege, by implication,
that 1 have desired you tb appoint frcc-soiters to of
fice, nnd, in doing so, you strangely misunderstand
or misrepresent my letter or tho 3d lost. I neither
ontertalued n^r expressed any such desire. It 1ms
been my pleasure and my duty, not to inquire into the
opinions which may have been held by yourself and
othors as far back ns the year 1848, but to regard the
claims to consideration of nil who havo acteu with fi
delity to tho principles and organization of the demo
cratic party since the convention in Baltimore in
1853, and thoso only. And with these views, 1 must
condemn your course when In this letter you inform
mo that you have selected free-sollers for office, with
out having given me the notice of the fact, which
would havo enabled me to withhold my approbation
from any such appointments. I will add, that the im
putation that I have required you to net witli refer
ence to controversies of a local or State character, is
wholly gratuitous. My letter was intended to guard
you aguiust distinctions between democrats, founded
upon local politics and local distinctions.
Tho concluding portion of your letter has left mo
no alternative but to lay the whole matter before the
President, and take his direction concerning it.
You assume that in relation to certain things you
are to rueoivo Instructions from this doparmeut, and
in others that you are to proceed without, or contra
ry to such instructions. This cannot be admitted iu
any branch of tho publio service ; for where the de
partment is notexpressly empowered to give iustruo-
tructlons to subordinates, it 1ms tho authority to do
bo, as inherent in the power to remove a refractory
officer.
• You uldo nuumA that yon .are to appoint the va
rious persons employed Iu tho custom-house—some,
os you admit, subject to my approval, and others, as
you seom to conceive, on your solo authority. I cau-
uot but regard it ns singular that agontlcmnn of your
legal acquirements and experience should havo fallen
into such error. Tho constitution of the United
States has empowered Congress to confer the np.
poIntmentoflnfcriorofficers'Mn the President alone,
iu tho courts of law, or in the heads of departments."
Congress has not attempted, nor, if it had, could it
have effected, any modification of this provision of
tho constitution.
Those who arc employed under you In the Custom
House do, both by the Constitution and tho laws, de
rive their appointment and their authority as publio
officers from the Secretary of tbo Treasury alone.
What the language and temper of you letter would
have rendered embarrassing, these unwarrantable as
sumptions, marked as thoy are by a manifest spirit of
insubordination, render Impossible—namely, your
continuance in the offico of Collector of the District
of New York. I am, therefore, directed by the Presi
dent to say that your successor iu tho office will be
promptly appointed.
I have the honor to be, very respectfully,

The SmitliRonian Institution is iu daily expecta-
tatlon of receiving two specimens of tho Qymnotus
Electricus, or electrical eel, from the river Amazon
which were shipped to New York to D.D. Williamson
Jr., Esq., of that city. We are onubled to quote Irom
a private letter of Sir. Williamson to Prof. Henry,
wMch will show what is known about them :
" After the great expense and trouble that I have
been to. in importing theso eels, I earnestly hope
they will roach you safely, and that tho experiments
you may mako will provo interesting and valuable to
yourself and tho scientific world. Tney leavo in fine
order,and I should recommend that Immediately up
on the receipt they should be placed near a stove and
bo allowed to remain where the'beat will be uniform.
Do not pour warm water upon them, as they will die
as soon ns it becorao oool. By irritating them with a
stick they will give ont their peculiar power In groat
force ; this will, however become weak by constant
tax, but a day’s rest will cause it to return as usual.
When cold and torpid it is Bcarcoly perceptiblo. They
are in tho water from tho Amazon, and it had better
bo changed for rivor water, with a sufficient quantity
of mud. If they are very angry the electricity will be
communicated to the water, so that a shock may be
obtained without touching the eel."
Several attempts have been previously made by
Mr.W.| to Import the Gymnotus, but till now una-

about three wiles from town. Mr. Henry undertook
to correct the boy for misbehaviour, when he-reaist-
ed, end finally attacked his master, and killed him
on the spot. The negro escaped, but will doubtless
be overtaken. .

Exciting Seen* In Uonrt.
At the Supreme Court in Alfred, Me., on Friday,
William R Haskell, who was convicted oa two In-
diotmento for store-breaking, being asked by Judge
Howard if ho hod anything to say, made some hypo-
critical remarks calculated to propitiate the Judge,
and received aentonoes of two yean in the 8tate
Prison on each Indictment. County Attorney Drew
observed that the prisoner was a dangerous roan, and
should have had a more severe sentence, and Has-
kell replied in somo personal remarks, which brought
down the andlenoe in a perfect uproar, so that somo
time elapsed before order was restored. The Sheriff
then informed Haskell that Deputy Lord would take
him back to Jail, but the prisoner objected, and ex
pressed a willingness to go alone with Deputy Moul
ton. This arrangement was not approved by the
Sheriff, and when an attempt was made to take Has
kell ont of the dock, a tremendous fight ooourred,
sheriffs, police and lawyers assisted to bind and car
ry off the prisoner, who fought like a madman. For
this freak the J udgo reconsidered one of bis sentences,
and sent him to Thomaston for seventeenyears in
stead of four. Be bad prepared a heavy bludgeon
with whioh to knook down Sheriff Monlton, which
waa the reason for bis anxiety for the pleasure ot the
oompany of the latter to they Mi-
Sugar Cnne.
I)r. Whitaker lias left at this office a sugar oano that
would not suffer, wo think, by comparison with the
best enue produced in Louiiinua. It wus grown at bis
country rcsidonco, three miles north of the city, and
east or tho railroad, on ordiunry piny-woods land. It
was cut off at tho eighteenth, joint, up to which joint
it is fully ripened and measures live feet seven inches.
The circa inference is fall 11 vo inches. The land was
highly manured with scrapings from tho chicken yard.
I his is another proof of the value of tho nine lauds
surrounding tho city. Deep culture and a liberal use
of guano on those uasod on clay, would produce a fine
crop of cotton, corn, sugar cane, Ac. ns any lands In
the State. The timo will come when they will be bet
ter appreciated.
Wo had also the other day, a very fair specimen of
red clover grown In this city. It was iu bloom and
two feet high. Ou tho samo sort of land, deeply till
ed and supplied with suitable manure, this grass
would doubtless thrive well iu this region. Colonel
Croorn and other planter) in Grecno and Marengo
counties havo obtained tho most satisfactory results
in this respect, on tho calcareous soils there.—Mobile
Tribune.
Location of the Passenger Depot.—Tho vote
of our citizens was again takon on Thursday last,
with regard to tho location of the General Passenger
Depot. The site selected by the railroads is four lots
in Bqnaro 44, adjoining tho Catholic Church. Tho
vote of the citizens in favor of that location, was 385
to 84 for tho one below tbo court house. Tho loco-
t on Is a good ono, and as near the business part of
tho city and hotels as any ono that could have b
obtiued.—Macon Telegruph, 25th.
When to Drink Whisky.—The editor of tho Gale
na (III.) Jeffersonian, who is "a Doctor by trade,”
gives it as his deliberate advice that whisky shonld
not be drank in warm weather. Ho is equally decid
ed on another point, namely, that it should never be
drank when the wether is not warm.
Vermont Senatoil—Tho democratic caucus havo
nominated Hon. Daniel Kellogg, of Rockingham, for
merly judgo of the supremo court, as U. 8. Senator,
to fill the vacancy occasioned by tho death of Hon.
Wm. Upham. Robinson, democrat, will probably bo
elected Governor.
An Incident in a Concert Rook—Last night
whilo tho Germanias were performing a fine sympho
ny from Beethoven, the large hall at Oarusi’s being
crowed, the President of tho United States entered,
attended byO. L. Ward, Esq., of Towanda.Pa., and
Mr. Webster, hit private secretary; whereupon, the
Gmwmiaj instantly-changed tho music to Hail Co
lumbia, and most of the audience rose Ip respect for
tho presence of tho Chief Magistrato’Wf our couptry,
audits glorious national anthem. We notice tbis
oircumstauce, as such an event never happened ia
Washington before.—Star.
Self Adjubtinq Switch.—We have been much
pleased with an Inspection of a self adjusting railway
switch, invented by Mr. J. Wilson, of, North Maine
street, In this city. The switch is so constructed as
to open by tbo pressure of tho advancing cars on the
rails, and to close by its own spring as soon as they
have passed, thus doing away with tbo servioea of a
switch tender. It is very Ingenious and simple, and
we advise ail those who aro interested in the con
struction of railroads to examine 1L—Hartford Cour.
