Mr. Toomm publishes in tht Augusta CluronicU a * very wrathy reply to the scathing Isttsr or Jura- box Davis. Our Senator denounces the Secretary of War M b M swaggering braggart and cunning pol troon." Now whether Col. Davis be anything of a "swaggering braggart" those who know him per sonally can better determine than we. The Impres sion whioh history has given as of his ob&raoter Is very different; that ho is rather modest and taoiturn. Bat as to h'a being a " poltroon " we veutdre to say that Mr. Tooxsa can have that queetlou deoided whenever ho chooses to hold Davis responsible for having published him (Toombs) as " thoroughly false and corrupt." Were it not uncharitable wo might express the belief that had ho thought Davis a "poltroon" Mr.Toombs would hardly have resorted to the nowspapera for the purpose offwiplng of the stain which his opponent had fixed upon his honor. Tbe New York Merchants and President Pierce. Tho New York merchants seem to bo nearly as an gry with Gen. Pikrob for the removal of Bronson, as they were with Gen. Jackson for the removal of the deposits. They held an indignation raoetlng last Monday presided over by G. B. Lamar, Esq., which tho New York 7Yt6utte, an advocate of the meeting, says was largely attonded, and very decided in con demnation of tho Government's removal of tho Col lector. The Mirror, another paper in tho interest of tho movement, Bays there were twelve or fifteen hundred persons—a majority of them merchants. Wo make the following extract from the Mirror's report of the proceedings : " After the reading of resolutions calls were made by the assemblage for Mr. Gkinnbll, Mr. Brooks, Mr. Burr, Mr. Lamar, Mr. O'Connor, Bron son, and amid tho confusion Mr. Royal Phelps, (supposed Sort-Shell) worked his way to the front of tho rostrum and said : teachers of wisdom.

Gentlemen—I come hero to protest in the name of tho merchants whoso names have been used for this meeting. I don’t think that this meeting fairly rep resents tho merchants of this city. Without saying ono word about tho objects of the meeting, I think that it was not got up In a fair way. It does not fair ly represent tho merchants. It is taking an undue advantage to call a meeting after a'change has been held, and to publish it as a meeting of the merchants of tliia city, though—[a storm of hisses here followed] Benkvolknob<—Putting bones into a beggar’s band which you were about to throw into tho street.— Yankee Boltons. Letter from Mr. Toombs. Grkknsboro’, Ga., Nov. 2,1853. Tb the Editor of the Chronicle Sentinel: Bib Col. Jefferson Davis having assailed me in a letter to one Gaakill, which has been published in the newspapers of thiB State, makes it proper that I should address the public through the same channels. I shall say nothing of thisGaskili, except so much as may be necessary to elucidate the controversy with the Secretary of War. My accounts with him have been settled. He has twice obtruded himself upon public meetings which I have been invited to address. At the last meeting, for having previously held up his father and mother, in his native State, Vermont, to the indignation oi the people, for having impious ly declared that God had killed Gen. Harrison and Gen. Taylor for the benefit of his party ; and for his utter disregard for ail truth, I felt constrained in his own presence to give him a severe but well-merited castigation. I have heard nothing more of him Bince this meeting, until be turned up m this correspon dence, under the protection oi the War office. There I shall leave him. The letter from Gaskill to the Secretary of War Is not published, but it seems from the account given of it, by him and tho Secretary, that lam charged as having “ denounced Jefferson Davis as a disunlonlst sitting in the counsels or the nation," and with representing him as having advo cated. in a speech delivered at Philadelphia, the con stitutionality and expediency of building tho Pacific Railroad with the resources of the Federal Govern ment. Th* first charge seems especially to have ex cited the ire of the Secretary, and he repels it in lan guage which demands of mo an appropriate reply. What was said by mo on the occasion referred to, V was not dono in a corner,” it was Bald to a public assembly of tho people; therefore the truth of tho charge could have been easily ascertained. The usu al coarse pursued by gentlemen, who may feel them selves aggrieved under Buch circumstances is to in quire of the person who is alleged to have made an offensive charge concerning its truth ; that of swag gering braggarts and canning poltroons,is to indulge in vulgar epithets and argumentative personalities, C io Tar as may not complicate them with the false- , if the charges should prove to bo untrue. Tho Secretary of War has chosen to pursue the latter course. What other advantages this course may have, it is not to be commended for its chivalry. The only allusion which I made to the Secretary of War, hav- —though there la no man that respects Mr. Bronson more than I do, as a man of high honor and principle, bat he has unfortunately got into a quarrel with the administration, and we aro called upon to assemble hero for the purpose of being mudo a handle for the political leaders. [A perfectstorm of hisses here fol lowed with cries of " tear him down," " pull him down “down with him,” etc.] When tho storm had subsided calls were made for Mr. Grinnell, and Mr. Brooks, and lastly lor Mr. Greely, which latter name caused considerable merri ment. Mr. Royal Phelps again essayed to speak, but the moment he made his appearance he was hissed down. He said, well, if yon won't hear what I have to say— Another storm of hisses hero followed, and Mr. PhelpB precipitately retired. Another gentleman, whose name wo were told was Ralph Clarke, rushed up in an excited manner to tho front of tho rostrum, out was immediately biBsed down. Ing any relation to tho first charge, was of a wholly different character to that alleged. I arraiged Gen. Pierc* before the people, for betraying, the Compro miee and its friends, in tho face of all his professions, by bringing its enemies into power. To sustain this charge,! reviewed the position of each member of his Cabinet, and Bhowed that not one of them were iden tified with that great measure, and that the fidelity of each of them to it might bo justly questioned.— I stated that Col. Davis, had, in tho Senate, voted against its leading measure—united with its ene mies, and opposed it at home, and was beaten by Gov. Foote, of Mississippi, mainly on account of that opposition. I then proceeded to show that the policy or the government, was just os might have been ex pected from sach a combination. That its animating principle was, the “ cohesive properties of the public plunder,” to which ail were invited who would Join and support the Coalition, whether they were Free- Boilers. Dlsuniouists or Compromiso men. These were tne positions which I everywhere maintained daring the late canvass, and unfortunately for the country,the government was constantly furnishing additional evidence for their support. It was a onion With the enemies of the Constitution and the South that I denounced. I consider disloyalty to the Fed eral Union, itself, a virtue, when compared to the servile basenese of consenting to and maintaining a coalition with tho Buffalo Freesoilers Traitors, who for the last five years, have been openly vindica ting the larceny of our slave proporty, backing mobs to resistance or Constitutional laws passed for our protection, and exciting them to the murder of those of our citizens who attempted to recover their pro perty under them. And " in tho lowest deep there is yet a lower deep,” ond the Administration have reached it. Not content with taking these men to their bosoms, under the fraudulent pretext that they have been cleansed by being dipped into the filthy, common sewer of government patronage, the Admin istration has combined with them, to crush and tram ple under foot the trno friends of tho Compromise, and the only true friends of tho Constitution and the Sonth, in the Northern States. It openly sustains John Van Buron and his mercenary gang of FroeBoil- era, in their warfare against Dickinson, Bronson, O’Conner, and their patriotlo comrades in New York, who have separated from these political lepers, on the ground of their freesoiiism. Denunciation of this policy, wonld but weaken tho force of its aakod state ment. The Becretary of War scemB to plead as a “ sett ofP’ to this charge against himself, which was never made byme,& similar accusation against me. He says, " hi* most ardent langaage never reached the extreme to which (I) went, both before and after the measures, commonly called the compromise of 1850, bad been presented, and its principles and the constitutional right involved, had been fully discussed.” This is certainly true,for I nover knew the Secretary betray ed into a strong, mnch less an imprudent expresalon la behalf or the rights of the South, or against their threatened invasion. For myaeir, from my youth up, I have ever held the Union subordinate to the great principles it was intended to perpetuate : as a means by which they were intended to bo secured, and not as an end to which they wore to be sacrificed. I know many good and true men in the South, bettor and truer than the Secretary of War, who do “ desire " disunion now ; I know others who have openly de clared that they did " dtsirt" it, who are now enjoy- lngjlncratlve officers nnder the Federal Government; and to enter opon them, have taken tho oath to Bap- port th* Constitution or the United States. Bat I ahall leave this ethical question of their eligibility to be settled between them and tho present Administra tion. In tho contest of 1850,1 was against the Union, in the event of the infliction of threatened aggressions upon onr rights, which aggressions were openly stated and clearly defined. I never retracted, changed or modified the positions then assumed and maintained; and each of tnem are firmly planted in the fourth re flation of the Georgia Platform, and are fundamen tal tenets In tbo political creed of the Union tepnbli- can party of Georgia. Because these contingencies did not happen, and can never happen while the Cbra- promtse is preserved, •* in principfe r and substance,” I supported the Union and the Compromise, bare supported tl againtt (heopponents of either, at the South, that tney may never happen, I have opposed, and shall continne to oppose the Freesoilers and Abolitionists at the North, and tbo\r friends and allies under what ever political flag they may sail. The aecond charge referred to by the Becretary of War, needa no reply. I consider his letter a plea of guilty, and an attempt to jostifV. My charge was based npon hl« own speech, printed by his authority In the Washington Union, of the 4th of August, I read extracts from that speech, and among others the very extract to which be refers, and commented upon them. 1 did hold the President responsible for the principles laid down In that speech. My estimate of tho President is not high, bnt it is not, as yet, low enough to suppose him capable of permitting two of his Cabinet officers to remain in his Cabinet alter making snob public speeches in his own presence, unless be approved the principles and poli cy laid down by them. IwllUhorefore.for the pres ent, simply tarn over the Secretary’s Justification to the consideration of his political friends in Georgia, who, with sooh singular unanimity, before the elec tion, maintained their old political tenets on internal Improvement* by the general government, and con demned the opinions expressed by Messrs. Davis & Guthrie at Philadelphia. I am respectfully, roar ob’t servant, R. Toombs.

They are admirable. " Wc had supposed that tho experience of the mer chants in other days, when they undertook to di rect the popular indignation against Gen. Jackson, for his Romam firmness in resisting tho assaults of the United States Bank, had taught them that tho democratic masses do their own thinking, anil judgo of the acts of their President uninfluenced by dicta tion from any quarter. President Pierce finds him self in the same position, and ho will be os triumph antly sustained by tbe democratic masses as was Old Hickory. It became necessary for tho latter to re move a refractory subordinate in order to carry out his policy; and for taking that responsibility, tho merchants denounced and threatened him. This was tho signal for the uprising of tho people, who rallied round tho Old Hero, and triumphantly sustained him. General Pierce will havo no cause to regret that, in “followingthe footsteps of his illustrious predeces sor,” ho is subject to thq Bamo ordeal. IIo Is prepar ed for it; and, relying upon the rectitude of his cause, and leaning upon a just and generous constitnency, ho will await their judgement with calmness and con fidence. He has taken the responsibility of rebuking and discountenancing treason to the democratic par ty ond tho democratic platform, whether it come in the shape of factious insubordination or treacherous' free-soilism; and he will go forward with unwavor- ing firmne8, resolved at all hazards to preserve the integrity of tbe party and of tho Baltimore platform. Tho more the New York whig merchants denounco him, the more zealously and heartily will tbe honest democratic masses sustain him.” British Intrigues In Cuba against the United States. The following extract from a letter of tho Washing ton correspondent of tho Freeman's Journal, lately found its way into tho Georgian. It relates to the British scheme for Africanizing Cuba: The whole story is discredited by our best informed statesmen. Tbo conception of such a scheme, with its motives and ultimate ends, would be one oi tbe blackest and most atrocious of plots. England, with all her faults and crimes, is scarcely regarded as equal to such perfidy. The same writer, in a subsequent letter, expresses bis conviction of tho truth of tho reports which he had previously discredited. We make tho following extract from his last communication. We may re mark that tho writer, as correspondent of the Free man's Journal, bos established a better reputation than most of tho Washington penny-a-tiners, for tho accuracy of his statements: The British plot for tho Africanization of tho Island of Cuba Is becoming every day more aud more a sub ject of conversation in political circles here, and is attracting a large share of the public attention. It mast, before long, elicit some action on tho part of tliia Government, and, indeed, has recently assumed so alarming an aspect that there is littio room to doubt that tho American Becretary of Stato, with that vigilance and promptness which have so fur cha racterized his public official career, as Premier of tho Government, has already taken the matter in hand, and will permit no default of his to insure success to tho intrigues of Great Britain. In my letter allud ing, for the first time, to tho subject, I was induced to doubt the first rumors attributing so foul and un scrupulous a conspiracy to any nation professing to be Christian, but there is left no longer any room to doubt, for advices have been received from Europe nnd from Cuba placing tbo matter beyond a question. Not satisfied with bor wholesale sacrifice of human life and tho brutalities of her evangelizing armies in India, nor with her tyranny and apostate soup in Ire land, her'philanthropy is about to enter upon a new field of labor in re-enacting the bloody and inhuman tragedy of San Domingo in the lovely Island of Cu ba, in becoming a partner in a now and revolting species of alavo trade under tho guiso of ten years apprenticeship of Africans to bo introduced into Cu ba, in sacrificing the white population of the Island to her own African proteges,and in blowing out from the face of tbo earth a Christian people to mako room for African pagans, and the worst form of feti- chism, os at present prevailing among the Haytiens. The adoption of this oonrse by England is tbe ronowal of what her statesmen call her “ entire liberty-re suming” policy, and was resolved upon immediately on tho reception of President Fillmore's refusal to nuke tho United States a party to the proposed tri partite convention of England, France, and the Unit ed States, for the perpetual guarantee of Cuba to Spain, to the exclusion of all other powers. It is quit) clear, then,that England’s present intrigues are aimed immediately at the United States, ana are so regarded at Washington. It is quite certain that our Secretary of Stato b in possession of ample in formation to determine the true nature and aimB of this movement. It is expected that a British fleet will be stationed around tho Island at os early a dnv os tho threatening state of European affairs will ad mit, and I find it confidently stated that France is colleagued with England in tho scheme, and will de tach a French fleet to act on tho coast of Cuba in co operation with that of England. _ ho directed thit Mdptyu „ ed duty free.

This noble ship, the model of perfection, symme try, strength ana durability, a finished specimen of a Merrimack River built clipper, owned by David Og den, Esq., and others of New York, will leavo our E ort this day for Now York, in tow of tho stearatug eviathan, whence she will load aud proceed to Liv erpool. The Dreadnought in Bize is midway between tho Racer and the Highflyer, measuring about 1,500 tons, but in strength, symmetry, elegance of proportions, model, or in capacity for stowage, excels everything of the clipper kind ever launched upon this river, and in elegance of finish, rig, model, strength, fast ening, durability of material and biauty of structure throughout challenges a comparison with any other ship ever built in tbo United States. She is a three- decker, having sharp ends, unusual breadth of beam, and cannot fail to meet the confident expectation of her builders nnd owners for proving the fastest sailer in tho constellation of clippers which now float upon the seas. The Dreadnought was built by Messrs. Currier & Townsend, of this city, of the very best materials, expressly for the Liverpool, California and China trade. The Dreadnought makes tho last of six ships built by Mr. Ogden on this river within the past few years, tho coat of which has amounted to nettiy half a million of dollars.—Newburyport Her ald ,25th xdt.

Aa matters stand, this is Impossible without voluntary and en tire subordination on the part of the Oglethorpo aud Wash- ington Fire Comnanlea. or without a change of ordinance.

Tho members of the Savannah Fire Company aro under tho absolute control of the Chief Fireman—they can bo transferred from one on- glno to another at will—or from ono branch of servlco In tho Department to another—and in case of disobedience or disrespectful language, can be fined and expelled. These points make so essential a difference In organizition, that it would bo hard to frame un ordinance that would moot tho emergencies that might arise, except to confirm what the Savannah Fire Company now claims—absolute control of tho Oglethorpo nnd Washington Fire Companies. Tho latter, the undersigned is happy to repeat, lias nover ob jected to it. nnd has on every occasion rendered cheerful co-operation with the Savannah Fire Company, naiaincum- boot upon good firemen nnd citizens, who would respect the laws above mere personal ambition.

To do so clenrly, It is necessary to refer to tho past, and also to call your careful attention to tho organization of tbo Fire Department of Savannah. The Savannnh Fire Company noils its authority not from any charter, but by express ordinances of tho city, the principal one of which passed on tho 11th of JIarch, 1835.— Tho 1st. 2d. ond 3d sections of this ordinance, as amended on the 8th of December, 1826, direct who shall compose tho Savnnnah Fire Company, and that when vacancies occur, It shall elect new members nnd nominate them to Council, whoso confirmation is necessary to give them a part in the powers and privileges of the Compnny Thus do its mem bers become city officers, and the subsequent sections cf this ordinance constitute the Company the oxocutive go7- ernment of tho city in all matters connected with tho man- element of fires, and place all other officers of tho city, In cluding tho Mayor and Aldermen, at auch times, subject to the commanding fireman. Tho wisdom of this thorough sub-, ordination nnd well-arranged organization has been justified in its successful operation ter ncarlv thirty years, during which tho almost noiseless yet efficient course of tho Sa vannah Fire Company lias relieved the city authorities from all laborer perplexity os to tho Firo Department. In tho 7th section of tho ordinance of 14th March, 1825. tho Savannah Fire Company “ is empowered to tuko charge of, and to have the care and management of all the engino houses, engines, buckets, fire-hooks, flro-hoso, ladders, and other implements ter extinguishing fires, that now belong to or may hereafter be provided by Council.” Under this section, in 1847, tho new engine Robt. Camp bell, No. 8. was put in charge of a volunteer company, call ed the Oglethorpe Flro Company, on certain conditions ; namely:— 1st. That the two chief officers of that company should be approved by tbe Savannah Fire Company, and nominat ed to Council as its members, subject to all its rules and penalties, and entitled to all Its privileges. 2d. That tho said Company shall bo subordinate to the officers of the Savannah Fire Company, and subject to its rulo in operation at fires. 3d. That in case of any act of insubordination or viola tion of tho rules or fire ordinances, the engiue shall be t& ken Trom tho chargoof the petitioners or their successors. 4th. That none of the rules of tho Company to be organ ized. conlltct with any of tho rules of the Savannah Fire Company or with tbo ordinances of the city. 6th. That the Company to be organized shall be entitled to tho emoluments which tho other englnos in charge of tho Savannah Fire Com pany aro entitled to receive front the city. In tho ensuing autumn, tho Oglotborne Firo Company obtained a charter organizing them as a distinct Company, and granting thorn exemption from military and jury duty in consideration of their services os firemen. A clause in their act of incorporation made their two chief officers ex officio members of the Savannah Fire Company, but at the samo time provided, that nothing therein should conflict with tho ordinances of the city of Savannah. Tills ex officio membership at first sight seemed to annul tho first condi tion on which the Engine No. 8 was placed in charge of the Oglethorpe Company, but more than this, It was found that tho organization of this Company waa so entirely different from tue principles upon which tho Savannah Fire Compa ny was based, that It was impossible that tho ordinance or ganizing it, could be conformed to, and yet admit tho offi cers elected by the Oglethorpe Company, aa members or the Savannah Fire Company. Two officers of tho Oglethorpo Company wore however admitted to seats at tho Board of the Savannah Fire Company bnt were subsequently exclu ded from any voice In its affairs as being contrary to the ordinances of the city. Tho firth condition granting •‘emolument, 1 ’ that is tho same pav as allowed to tho colored workers of engines, was annulled, becauso they received as an equivalent for their labors, exemption from military and jury duty. Tho 2d, 3d and 4th conditions or the grant remained in full force. It was, however, always the aim of the officers of tho Sa vannah Flro Compnny, to make tho duties of tho Oglethorpo Fire Company as light as possible, but a feeling of hostility on their part towaras tho Savannah Flro Company com menced In tho course of the first year, on tho occasion of Borne of the managers of engines, members of the Savan nah Fire Company, allowing their men to uniform them- solveH. This was conslderedan Infringement on tbedignity of white firemen, and tho attempt atjtliat time was com menced on" ' “ " * tho part or the Oglotborpe Company, tho work ers of one engine, to control tho movements or the Savan nah Fire Company, having the command nnd care of eloTen engines, two hose carts, axe, took snd ladder and bucket companies and 3,000 feet of hose, Including tho apparatus of the Oglethorpe and Washington Conpantes. . .-j Oglethorpe and Washington Conpanl Since that time, while there has never been a cavil or sin gle difference rataed on the part of the Washington Fire Company (though they joined In the objection to uniform ing tne negroes,) there has been s continuance of objec tion* on tho part of tho Oglethorpo Company to tho author ity or tbo Savannah Fire Company. Its members havo boon threatened, the negroea employed bj them beaten, and fi nally tbe orders of the commanding officers disobeyed, po sitions at fires taken without order), and tho ground left without leavo asked. 1 . .. .... This having been specially the cam at tho canal bridge Are on tho let of May. and at Wm.

Tho workmen employed there immediately . offlce switched it off upon a branch, under the instructions of tho switch-tender, named James Keefe, who assis ted in the work, and theu left to properly place the switches, before the next train, due from the city, which was the ono in question. Mr. Keefe, however, neglected to perform hia duty, aud recklessly left the southern switch about half placed, so as to leavo tho branch and regulnr rails wide apart, thusendangering life and limb, and destruction of property, which must fall heavily upon tho Company. When the express train came dashing around the corner, nt a speed exceeding thirty-llvo miles an hour, the engineers of the locomotive observed that something was wrong with the main a with, and bl atantly reversed tho machinery of their locomotives, and leaped to tho ground, followed by the firemen.— The whistle usually given by the “ express,” when passing way-stations, was given at a point some two miles east of tbo yonkers station; and, notwithstand' ing this caution, the switchman paid no attention.— The iron horses, therefore, were without directors nt tho time the engineers jumped ofl', and what saved the lives of tho vast number of passengers was eight freiglit enrs that stood on tho atatiou branch. Alt of these heavy cars were screwed up by tho breaks, and as the train was thrown off tho track.it plunged into these cars, which, together with the reversed ma chinery, suddenly checked the speed of the train, and a fearful crash waa the result, entirely demolishing both locomotives, aud breaking three of the passen ger cars. The panic among the passengers was very exciting, and thoso who witnessed the fearful sight, supposed that many of thorn were instantly killed, and a gen eral rush for the wreck was made by such of tho em ployees of the Road and villagers as were on the spot. The passengers were more or lessshocked.andegress was speedily mado by all who wore in the rear cars, and the excitement was intense. The passengers oc cupying tho forward oar, wore pitched from their seats, and strange to say, not a siuglo one of then was killed; several,however, wero injured abouttheir faces, aud breasts, and arms. Among thoso in the cars next to the baggage-cars and engines, who mi raculously escaped, was an old lady named Sevin, who mado a hue and cry about the Dftgureotypes of her self, son and daughter, which she said had been de stroyed In the wrecked car, and tho indignation ex pressed by the aged fair one against tho road, was turned into ridicule and laughter by her fortunate as sociate passengers, who were of the unanimous opin ion that Mrs. S. should be satisfied with her escape from injury. Numerous passengers were injured in various parts of their bodies, ond they were conveyed to the Getty House, on tho hill, where every relief was afforded. The Engineer of the •'Saratoga,” named Louis Elder, was injured, but not seriously. Upon making dili gent inquiry, wo could not learn that any of the pas- sengera were dangerously injured, and the residents of Yonkers, together with the passengers themselves, wero completely astonished at the narrow escape of lift) and limb. At the tlmo the train was thrown off, the Station Agent, A. Armstrong, was in tho upper part of the depot, and tho first indication he had of the disaster was the demolition of the southwest cor ner of the building, that wps carried away by tho en gines, as they came of! tho west branch, leading to the Passenger Depot. The switchman is said to have witnessed the oc currence, and being frightened, instantly left the de pot, and fled to the interior of the village, thence down tho turnpike-road towards Kingsbridgo, and has not been seen or heard of since. It seem i Keefe was employed by tho Company to perform the double duty of attending to the drawbridge and also to the switches, and bis general reputation appears to be good, os a careful and attentive man to ills business. The two locomotives, baggage-car, and three nas- senger-cars were completed wrecked, and the loss of property is estimated at $50,000. Tho ruins wero cleared away yesterday, tho track repaired, and trains are running regular again.
