Nature look, as gay nnd smiling, and the birds sing as morlly as before. Again we mingle with the busy. Jostling throng. Weeks aud months roll on—we visit the graves ess frequently—and gradually cease to think of the lost ones, save wnen some voice or Incident of by-gone days recall them to our memory. The reeling of bit ter anguish and bereavement are soon worn off by the accumulating cares and pleasures of life. Thus we, in turn, must ere long pass away, aud be forgot ten. Such is human life. Mother. Round tho Idea of one's mother tho mind of a man clings with fond affection. It Is the first deep thought stamped upon our Infant hearts when sort and capa ble or receiving the most profound Impressions, and all the after feelings of the world are more or loss light in that comparison. I do not know that even In our old ago we do not look back to that reeling as the sweetest we have through life. Onr passions and our wilfuluess may lead os far from the object of our filial love ; wo learn even to pain her heart, to op pose her wishes, to violate her commands ; we may become wild, headstrong, and angry at her counsels, or opposition.;, but when death bath stilled her moni tory voice, and nothing bat calm memory-remains to- recapitulate hor virtues and good deeds, affection, like a flower beaten to the ground by a past storm, raises up her hoad and smlleb amongst her tears.— Round the idea, as we have said, tho mind clings witli fond affection ; and even when the earlier pe riod of our loss forces memory to be silent, fancy takes tho place of remembrance, and twines the im ago of our dead parent with a garland of graces, and beauties, and virtues which wc doubt not that she possessed.—Jama. 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, lufuso courage, and vivify and sustain the charities of life. It would be a terrible world, Ido think.if it was not embellished by lififilo children.—Rev- i. Bin- ticy's Both Worlds. Ncvor furanko a friond when enemies gather thick around him—when sickness falls heavy upon him— when the wot Id is dark and cheerless; this is the time to try.tby friendship.

The arrangements for tho Arracan mission are not yet complete; Mr. Knapp, of Akyab being now so very feeble as to re quire him to tako a voyago for his health, and his plaoo, therefore, must bo supplied by another.

The Spy says, that about 700 persons sat down together. A select choir of singers was In attendance, and among other things Bung some beautiful original hymns, written for tho occasion. Speeches were made by the President, Gov. Lincoln, by Dr. Lotbrop, Rev. Messrs. Ellis, Clarke, Saltmursh, Melburn, ana others, and at 10, P. M., tho party broke up with the singing of the doxology. On Thursday, the third day of tho session, tho sec ond suWect on tho programme, vis; " Membership of tho Church of Christ," and " What gives a right to participate in the Lord's Snppor," was resumed, and occupied the mcoting most of the morning. A proposition was submitted to raise funds fora monument, on the third centennial anniversary of the martyrdom of Servetna. In the afternoon the dis cussion of the topic of church membership, Ac., was still farther continued. In the evening, Rev. Mr. Hun tington preached In Rev. Dr. Hill’s church, and this terminated the sessions of tho convention, which are spoken of as having been very pleasant to all who participated in them. GTIjc Sauaititpii pailt) tifrorgimt. 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. Presbyterian Board or Publication.—On the 18th Inst, the Rev. George W. M usgrave, D. D., re signed the office of Corresponding Secretary and Gen eral Agent of the Presbyterian Board of Publication, elected Corresponding Secretary of the Board of Pub lication, vacated by the Rev. Dr. Masgrave. American Tract Society.—The executive com mittee of the American Traot Society, at their last meeting resolved to remit $20,000 for the use of Amer ican foreign mission stations, and a commission was appointed to appropriate that mm to the several sta- Card or the Prsrintno Bisnors in the Case or Bisuor DoANK^-Tho underulgned, having seen In tbs publio papers that an use entirely contrary to their own meaning, has boon made of the concluding sen tence or.the doonment submitted by them to the court of Bishops, immediately before the dlsmlsal without trial of the presentment or Bishop Doans, take this mode of stating their intention and design in the use of those words. In declaring themselves “prepared to abide by tbe actfott of the Coart,” they meant lim ply to *ay tbs*; having labored to the utmost of their power to bring, tibhht a different result from that Vrhf — hicb thov were assured was oerteln to take place 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 tholr’a.

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.

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, ’ James Guthrie. Greene C. Bronson.

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- The Hon. Lswis Cass, Jr., our Minister to Home, sailed in the Humboldt, for Havre, from Now York, on Saturday last. The family of Gen. John A. Da were passengers in the same vessel.

Henry, an old and reapootable citizen of that city, on the previous Mon day evening, by his slave. Tbo deed was perpetrated 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. .

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.
