at 91 i, though previously up to D2|—“ a sudden fall
having occurred inconsequence of largo preparations
by tho Government for tho despatch of cavalry, in
fantry and artillery to tho Mediterranean uy steam
and other vessels."
From the number of steamers brought into requisi
tion-thirteen in addition to the means furnished by
tho British Navy—it would seem that tho war Is to
be vigorously prosecuted on tho part of England.

The West Point (Ga.) Beacon of March 2d says :
There was an immense rise in tho Chattahoochee
River at tills place on Sunday last, occasioned by
tho heavy rains which fell above ami at this place,
on the preceding Friday and Saturday. On Sunday
night tho River was out of its banks, uml a great por
tion of the towu inundated. Tho W. P. \ A. R. Road
Bridge, we regret to state, sustained considerable
damage, one ‘ span’ of which (being in an unfinished
condition) was carried entirely away. A portion of
the It iilr.-ad embankment of the east and west hunk
of the River, was also washed down. This accident
to the Bridge will delay the completion of the work
at least a month longer. Tho loss is estimated at
about $2,000.

The people of Cherokee are a plain, wholu soulod. alfable
people. they sro easily approached, and if patrioti-
devotion to the interest* uf Georgia bo faults, tiiey havo
them to an excess. The citixens of tho Cliurokee country
are ripe for tho Savannah market, they prefer it, and yet,
the merchants of Savannah inako no advances nor offer
any inducements. Tho merchants of Charleston and New
.York havo constantly in this region their ageuts, their
drummers, and their newspaper writers, at large and in
creasing salaries. The uaiuc* and tho faces of Clierokeo
farmers and merchants nrv familiar to the merchants and
tradesmen of Charleston and New York, while they nro
dead letters to the merchants of our own State. Tho capi
talists of Charleston and New York know tho interest, the
profit and benefit of this vast trade, and they have left no
inuuns u ue in ployed to secure uud retain it.
Thousands of dollars havo been expeoded by tho enter
prise of Charleston and New York to obtain this trade. The
effort has been successful, and the merchants amply paid
from tho Georgia Hlato line on tho Chattahoochee
fiver, to tho city of Mobilo, won takon up and passed.
Tim bill granting land to Alabama, for a railroad
from tho Selma on tho Alabama river, to Gunter’s
landing on tho TeonCMee river, and a railroad from
Momphla on the Mississippi river, to conuoct with
tho Nashville and Charleston Railroad, was taken up
and passed.
Tho hill granting land to California, for railroads
from San l-'ranciM.'o to San Jnso, from Benicia to
Marysville, front Sacramento city via Auburn to No
vadu city, and from Stockton to Sonora, was taken

Tin* hill granting land to Florida, for several rail
roads in that Stuto, was passed.
Tho bill grunting land to ArkaiiPiw, for a railroad
from Gaines' launliug ou the Mississippi river, to tho
Texas boundary lino near Fulton, was passed.
Mr. Dawson said he never saw such pleasant smil
ing fncesux were now to lx) seen among Senators
from tho new States. They had got all they asked.
No moment, lie was sure, wan more opportuun to ask
them to mix a little humanity with their land distri

tnuku no objection to taking up and passing the bill
grunting laud to the old and new States for the sup
port of the Indigent, Insane, Deaf, Dumb and Blind.
Cries of “ Agreed ! ’’ '• Agreed I ”
The bill was then taken up.
Mr. Johnson hoped that the hill would be passed;
it was just ami right.
Mv. Gwin said the bill was Imperfect-so far ns re
garded his Stuto, and ho desired time to offer an
amendment. He would move to taku up the bill to
morrow.
The bill was postponed.
Mr. Chose informally presented an amendment to
the Nebraska hill, which was ordered to bo printed,
providing for the election of u Governor, Judges and
Secretary, us well as members of the territorial legis
lature.
The Nebraska bill was taken up.
_ Mr. Cass took the lloor, and spoke until near three
o’clock, delining his position on the subject generally,
lie declared that he would vote for the bill.
Mr. Cass said he preferred theibill ivs originally re
ported, without a repeal of the Missouri Compromise,
to its present shape. He did not wish to disturb that
settlement of tho question of slavery unnecessarily,
particularly as the Southern Senators hud ull avowed
that it was only un abstraction, ami that the South
have no hope of slavery extending to the territories.
The Missouri Compromise had, at its day, effected a
settlement of an exciting nud dangerous controversy,
and lie would not hnve proposed to disturb it, but,the
proposition having been made, he would have to act
upon it.
He made a long argument in support of his fre
quently asserted doctrine, that all political sovereign
ty in the territories was vested in tho people thereof,
and not in Congress. He denied the doctrine of tin*
Southern Senators, that under the equality secured
by the Constitution to ull citizens, slave-holders had
the right to carry slaves to tho territories, and the
local legislature had no power to exclude them.
Tho term territory had now a two-fold meaning
one as applied to land or public domain, and the oth
er as applied to a political organization. Over the
latter Congress had no power,over the former Congress
was sovereign, nnd nil laws relating to the former
was as uhsolute in the public domain within State
limits as in the territories.
If the right of slaveholders to take their slaves nnd
settle with them ou the public domain was secured
by the Constitution, why could not they go with their
slaves and settle upon the public domain of the Uni
ted States in Ohio, or in other States, ns well as in
the territories? If it was a right secured by the Con
stitution of the United States, no State law or C'onsti
Mr. Thompson of New Jersey, followed In support
of tho bill. Ho aald no part of tho country had been
more devoted to tho Constitution than New Jersey
no part of tho country had more readily rospomiod
approvingly to tho compromise measures o 1850,
than New Jersey, tho democracy of tliEt State had all
endorsed tlioso measures. This bill was In accord-
mico with tho principles of tho act of 1850, nnd con
sequently wax In accordance with tho mntimonta or
tho New Jersey democracy. It was, moreover, Just,
right and proper In itself, ft was a further recognition
of tho great right of tho people determining their
own lawn nnd constitution for themselves.
Hu pursued tho subject much further, and upon
concluding, Mr. Clayton got tho floor. Tho hill wax
then postponed.

By tho arrival of tho steamship Philadelphia we

Though tiioy como down to dato four day* later

stronger *, la easily governed, sober, frugal, mild, uud
as eager to work, on Sunday, for pay, as the negro is
averse to lubor, paid or forced, at ull times.
They seem, in short, to lie convinced that, in point
of cheapness and efficiency, there ore three grades—
the negro standing lowest; the Cooly a good deal
higher; the Chinaman a good dual the highest of all.
And, indeed, from what is reported of the Chinese in
California, there may bo more truth in these state

Mr. Dean moved an sdmendment to tho effect that
the lands shall he chosen in the Territories, and not

Mr. Cobb opposed Mr. Dean’s amendment ns wrong
In principle. It was rejected.
Mr. Wright, of Pennsylvania, moved one confirm
ing the homesteads to free white persons. He sui I iu
Massachusetts free negroes are citizens. But neither
full blooded nor hair blooded negroes are in Penn
sylvania, under her Constitution. Nor are they citi
zens under the Constitution of the United States.
Mr. Dawson remarked that it was never contem
plated that black people should be placed on an
equality with white people in this bill. He regarded
the amendment as surplusage.
Mr. Kcitt—Docs the gentleman regard free negroes
in any State as citizens?
Mr. Dawson—Not at all.
Mr. Giddiugs moved an amendment, adding before
the word white, the woids •* more than half." [Laugh

Mr. Giddings’ amendment was voted down, and
Mr. Wright's was agreed to—ayes 71, nays 60.

Wo repeat it, it should not be so. Tills harvest justly he-

l«t it no longer lio said the trade of Chorokeo lias to lie de
adly tho same condition, respecting slavery, as it
was when acquired. The prohibition of it in California
was not an ad of Congress, hut by the exercise of the
means right of the people thereto determine the question
for themselves. Slaveholders had no more right to
complain of inability to take their property there than
others. Northern men could not remove their farms,
nor their corporate franchises, nor any of the dearest
or tunderest attach inch ts with them to the territories
or to California. Northern anil Southern people are
alike compelled to turn their property into money,
and thus remove it. When they got to the new
country, the Northern nnd Southern inou both are
entitled to do und to have all things allowed to other
citizens in those communities. This was the equality
secured by the Constitution.
Mr. Cass read statistics showing how comparative
ly few were the slaveholders. Slavery was an evil;
but ho was for leaving it with tlio Southern people,

Cholera In Trxna— Awful Fatality In a Fami
ly of Georgia Fmlgrnnts.
'through the politeness of Col. I*. S. Holt of this
city, we are enabled to lay before our readers tho fol
lowing particulars of an awful calamity which has
recently hcrullcn the family of Mr. George Mocrc,luto
of Crawford county, Georgia, who removed to Texas
but a few weeks ago. The scene of disaster is Grimes
county, Texas, near Anderson, and the writer of tlio
letter to Col. Holt, is Mr. J. VV. Barnes, formerly of
Hancock county, Georgia:
The family of Mr. Moore consisted of himself and
wile ; hi* son-in-law, Mr. Crute and wife ; children and
graml-ehildrcn, to the number of 15 (whites) uud
about flu blacks. They left New Orleans for Galves
ton on one of the steamships plying between the two
P laces, sometime about the lust of January or first of
'ebruary, in company with over 400 other emigrants.
Oil arriving at Galveston, Mr. Moore’s family took up
their line of inarch for Grimes county, where he had
a planting Interest, and whither, his son, George
Mure.jr., bail preceded him a year ago.
After passing Houston, the cholera broke out among
tlio negroes, several of whom died on the way to
Grimes county, and several more alter their arrival
iu the neighborhood. The disease was thus commu
nicated to the white family, of whom fifteen iu num
ber,ull were attacked, liut Mrs. Grate and infant child,
ami of all attacked, o« the 15th February, the last
dato or the letter of Mr. Barnes, twelve had died, c r
all but a lad named •• Gus." presumed to be “ Augus
tus." hut whether the son of Mr. More, or un adopted
child, doth not appear from the letter of .Mr. B. Of
the negroes fifty out of the sixty had been attacked
with tho disease, of whom about twenty bad died, ut
the time ot writing, and tho disease hud communica
ted to the family of negroes who lutd previously been
iu Texas, one of whom " Bill" was dead, and the dis
ease still unsubdued. Mr. B. does not state whether
George Moore, jr., was one of the victims of the chol
era, but wo presume he was not,or Mr. B. would have
particularly mentioned it.
Mr. Barnes attributes Ibis awful calamity to the fact
of the emigrants being too crowded on tho steam
ship, ami to tlm filthy state of the negroes’ depart
ment on hoard, together with their exposed situation
lifter landing ami during their winter travelling, des
titute of the necessary medical attention and comfort*
of life, and he urgently warns his friends ill Georgia,
from taking tho Now Orleans and Galveston Route,
declaring that the full and not tho winter season is
the proper time for emigration to Texas, and the laud
route the only safe one.

Tho Advertiser of lost Saturday says :
Business has been some heavier tills week than
last. The quantity of grain shipped never was great

which are sold or consigned below.

New Orleans Money Market.—Tho Picayuue in
its monetary statement of Tuesday evening, Februi
ry 28th,says :
The money market is quite easy, and there is an
abundance of capital afloat for investment. The
Bunks, according to our statement made up yesterday,
are unusually flush, and. if necessity existed, could
afford to extend sonic three or four million*. The ar
rival of the steamship Philadelphia to-day, with
$'.130,000 in specie, swell the supply of coin in tlio
Banks to about nine millions, which is upwards of
two millions iu excess of tiiu quality oil hand four
weeks since. The effect of this rapid augmentation
of rcKiurcs has been to absorb all the good paper
that i* tendered, und the amount of such description
ofi'eriilg in Bank is barely equal to the requirements
arising from the daily income. Prime long paper

Money to the amount of $800 was found in his pos
session when arrestm], uml proof of the expenditure
of about $1,300 more was brought against him, for
which lie could not satisfactorily account. He lias
been held to bail in $5,000, to answer before the Cir

Another post ofHco clerk here, Edward Beasley,
was also arrested nu suspicion, but the evidence ad

Mysterious.—A negro fellow yesterday attempted
ti pass off upon a clerk in Mr. Ferry's shoe store,two
bank hills of $100 each, in puvincutof u pair of shoes
woi th $1,25. He evidently did not know the valuo
of the money, and when he was told by the clerk that
ho could not change the hills, the negro took them
and left, saying that he would go and see his master.
He was then suspected, followed and arrested, but
the money could not bo found. Subsequently it was
ascertained that a country man had lost $270, a part
of which was of the description in the hoy’s posses

Young Men’s Literary Association Lectures.—
The sixth of the course of lectures before the Young
Men’s Literary Association Ls announced lor Monday
evening.to be delivered by Rev. J. P.Tustin. The sub
ject chosen by the lecturer is ono well calculated to
draw forth his acknowledged literary ability and re
search, and to call together a large and popular au
dience. We trust to see continued the commendable
interest in behalf of entertainments of this kind, re
cently so extensively awakened in our city, as well on
account of the public ntlurge as the young men com
posing the Society before whom the lecture is to he
given.
Boston Musky Market.—Tho Boston Courier
says s " The supply of money is about equal to the
demand, and the hanks are discounting quite liberal
ly for their regular customers. The amount of flout
ing paper in the street is much less than formerly,
and tlio general impression in business circles appears
to be tbut the foreign demand for the products and
securities of this country will keep down the premi
um on exchange, and keep money plenty and cheap,
particularly as shipments of gold are now much less
than the arrivals or it from the mines. The late news
by the steamer from tho other side *of tlio water is
decidedly favorable for tho interests of this country."
Steamboat DlMNstcnt.
Wo had occasion to refer yesterday to tho long list
of steamboat disasters. We find the following para
graph bearing on tliiH subject in one of our exchanges:
Tlio 8t. Ivouis Republican states that from Hie first
of January last to tho evening of the 4th of Februa
ry, thirty-eight steamboats have been badlv damaged
or totally destroyed on Western rivers. • Eleven were
consumed by lire, thirteen suuk and entirely lost,
uud fourteen badly damaged by wagging nnd other
accidents. And besides tho Hteamboats, there have
been in the same length of time between ono hundred
and fifty and two hundred coal boats and barges sunk
on the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. The number of
lives lost in these calamities is large, but can never
bo definitely ascertained.
Wnshlngtou News.
Our Philadelphia exchanges bring us the proceed
ings of Congress on Monday nnd Tuesday last. We
give as full a report as our space will allow in to
day’s paper. The following despatch to tlio North
American, gives the latest intelligence tliat we havo
received from the Federal city :
Wahiiinoton, Feb. 28.
Mr. Clayton will speak to-morrow against the Ne
braska bill iu its present shape, ami will offer amend
ments necessary to secure his vote, which the friends
of tho hill will not accept. John IHI intends to
speak against it; also Mr. Foot ami Mr. Fessenden.
The interest and excitement here are increasing.
There was a Democratic callous to-night ol me
bors or tlio House. Thu hards generally refused to
co iu ; Mike Walsh went, but left before the ballot
iug. Seventy-four persons only were present, being
less than a quorum of Democratic Representatives.
Judge Nicholson was nominated for printer, n ceiving
fifty-six votes against four, sixty persons only voting.
Mr Forney had withdrawn iu favor of Mr. Nichlson,
who was supported by the Administration, he having
to-day bought out Arnold Harris’ interest in the
Union establishment, which was made a situ qua non
by tho Administration. It is understood Mr. l-nrnov
is to be Joint editor and proprietor with Mr. Niohol-
son. It la believed the latter will be elected, although
an effort, it is anticipated, will be made to unite the
Whigs and anti-Nebraska Democrats In favor of Mr.
Johnson, tho present postmaster of the House, or
Cornelius Wendell, of tho Sentinel.
Lieut. Baldwin, of the Navy, has resigned.
Bonn: Ultccn or sixteen chiefs. At first they w>
very averse to our lauding ou the isthmus, and abso
lutely refused to give their consent; they ut length,
however,consented that wo should laud, hut only lor
the purpose of reconnoitering tlio proposed route ol
the snip canal. On the 19th, a party of twenty-eight
men uud officers, principally from this ship, well
armed nnd provisioned for ten days, lauded under
command of Lieut Strain. On the 21th, four of the
parly returned, having penetrated a distance of twenty
mile* into the interior. These latter started the next
morning witli a reinforcement of ten men and extra
provisions. The report of the said returned party is
not at all favorable to tlio project for a ship canal;
for they estimated on u fair calculation, tliat tlio ele
vation of tho lowest points over which they passed
are about one thousand feet in licighC. They followed
the Caledonia river, and you can judge the size of the
stream when tho party walked up the bed of the river
all the way.
The English brig of war. Esplogle, arrived on tho
19th, having °n hoard Mr. Gisborne, Dr. Cullen, and
a party of English engineers detailed to survey a
route for the proposed ship cnnnl.
On the 20th, the English survey schooner Scorpion,
and tlio French steamer Chinari arrived—the steamer
having on hoard a party for the canal route survey,
and the schooner being intended forthc survey of this
harbor.
The English and French party comined started on
the 24th. On that day, a party of five, detached from
Strain's party, returned to the ship, and repeated the
obstacles and hardships which they hud encountered.
They stated that they had left strain anil his party iu
tho mountains eighteen miles distant. They left the
ship again with a reinforcement of ten men and ten
day’s extra provisions, under charge of Lieut. Faunt-
leroy, While I write, I see detachments ol the
French and English party returning to their vessels,
nnd am informed they Imve oomoafter provisions. A
glance at tho letter of Liout. Fauntleroy, who over
took tliu English party they day alter lie left, fully in
dicates that their own conclusion upon the premises
acquired thus far, is, that the route is impracticable.
Kince tho above was written, some ISO New Grana
dian troops, under Colonel Codazzi,liave been landed
here, and will be sent across the route upon which
the explorations are being made, for tho purpose ol
establishing posts along the line, and forming n gar
rison at Han Miguel, the l’acific extremity of the
line, etc.
The latest accounts fmm the expedition on shore
are not all satisfactory. We nro expecting to wc
hostile movements on the part of John Bull's repre
sentatives here, on account of tlio murder [of which
your readers are doubtless apprised] of several of the
crew of Her Brittunic Majesty’s ship Virago, near
San Miguel.
Our party must by this time bo encamped on the
shores of tho l’acific.
Much dissatisfaction is expressed towards I)r. Cul-
leu, the author of a book which certainly, to Huy the
least, gave very plausible reasons why the canal could
and should bo built—a blessing for him ii he could
vanish to parts unknown, to escupe the ridicule and
contumely which he is very likely to receive from his
own countrymen as well ns tho other individuals
which lie has inveigled into tho chimera—I cannot
call it any thing else. We will have completed the
survey u| this beautilul liurborin about u month ; the
anchorage is very commodious, perfectly sale,and cn-
pnlile o| containing Kino Hail of tho line.

Mr.* Coo TEH, of Pu., (Whig,) spoke in opposition to
the bill, nnd wa* followed by Mr. Bropiikad,(Detn.,)
from the sumo State, iu its favor.
Mr. Broilhend said that six years ago, he made a
speech on this subject, iu which lie advocated the
very principles of Die hill. Ho might, therefore,
have contented himself with a s blent vote; but as
his colleagues hud opposed the bill, he felt it some
what obligatory on him to express Ins views. Ho
wa*sorry tlmt lie and Ins colleagues differed llo
intendod to show thut tho effect and intention of the
Missouri
ry to lie

Imve voted for this bill,and tlmt Whig would belli-,

The Senate then, at 5 o’clock, adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. Ilocock moved a suspension of the rules, witli
a view of taking up the Senate hill authorizing the
construction oi six first class steam Frigates. He
was willing to consult the temper of the House in
this matter. Ho supposed almost every member was
perfectly aware that there is a propriety in the im
mediate passage of this bill. If tliu motion should
prevail, lie pledged hilnself, if nobody wished to dis
cuss the bill, to move tlio previous question. There
is a rule of the House which makes it necessary for
every bill involving any appropriation, us this docs,
to go to the Committee of the whole on the State m
tlie Union. Unless this rule shall be suspended, the
bill will go there and be placed at the foot of tfce ca
lender, and not to be reaebud till the dog-days, if at
ull.
The speaker reminded the gentleman that debate
was not in order.
The Rules were then suspended. Yeas, 137; Nays,
GO.
The Bill was then read, authorizing tho Secretary
of Hie Navy to cause to be constructed for the Navy,
ut as early a day as practicable, consistently with
duo regard for economy and efficiency, six first class
steam frigates, to bo provided with screw propellers,
and properly armed and equipped for service, said
vessels und machinery to lie built by contract, or in
the Government Navy Yards, us tlio Secretary of the
Navy may think most advisable for Die public inter
est.
Th# second appropriates $3,000,000 lor this pur
pose, nnd for altering, completing and luiiiiehiiig the
frigates Santee, at Kittery, and Sabine,at New York.
Mr. Ilocock moved the bill bo nude the special or
der for to-inorrow two weeks.
Mr. Bocock's motion was disagreed to by a vote ol
91 yoitH to 18 nays—not two-tUirua.
The hni.so of Mr. Jones, Droover, near Thomasvilie,

SENATE.
Mr. BnoniiRAD continued his speech, commenced
tho previous day, in favor or tho Nebraska Bill. Wo
make a lew extracts from his speech. He said :
Ho made a speech in favor of the principles of this
hill, six years ago.and labored for its adoption. He
was not so much interested in it now as lie was then,
Since that time lie had seen tho South uniting to elect
Gen. Taylor, who hud refused to declare himself op
posed to the Wlltmit I’roviso. He hud also seeu.siuce
the 4th of March. 1853, too much willingness on the
part of Southern men, to unite in the administration
of tlio political nfliiirs of the country, uud with those
who supported the Wilinot Proviso,and stood, iu
1848, on the Buffalo Platform.
He was averse to ull sectional bickerings among
representatives in Congress. Northern Senators
should remember that tho Constitution in these pro
visions recognized slavery. It is recognized in the
prevision respecting fugitives, and also in allowing
n-preseiitulitm for slavery. He was opposed to ban
dying epithets from North to South. There were
three millions of slaves, uud they were not to he set
free in a day to starve, nor was the world to be legis
lated in the Millciiiiiiti.
Iu 1847, nearly all the North was instructed to vote
for the Wilinot proviso, lie was just the Northern
mull who spoke against it. He voted for Mr. Clay-
ten's hill then, which was the same in principle as
this hill.
In 1818, the South oflerod the Missouri line, and lie
iu a speech on it supported it. He voted for it. and
only four other Northern men, three from Pennsylva
nia and one from New York, voted for it. The advo
cates of tho Wilinot proviso then voted it down, and
insisted on that proviso. They abrogated, annulled,
repealed uml repudiated tho Missouri compromise,
by relasing to allow it its original purpose, mi exten
sion to the Pacific, in 1850. Among those voting for
tho Wilinot proviso, and against the Missouri com
promise, was his colleague and all tho others who
now insisted on that line.
Correspondence of tho Charleston Standard
Tin- Floods.
Columbia, March 2.
J\Tessrs. Editors: I have just sent you a telegraph,
and now write fuller views of tho freshet.
The bank of the South Carolina Railroad is broken
in live or six places, between »lio o»umcn Junction
nnd Die Congureo Trestle work. The breaks vary
from 50 m 100 yards. Tho bunds are at work upon it
and it will he repaired by Saturday evening. Those
uii.-i*n - ..— ail passed by hand cars, except ut 1
one place of about 50 yards, where a boat is used.
The chief dilliculty is tlmt there is but one small pas- \
scugcr car on this*side, so tliat the passengers have a
Klimt ride up to Columbia in freight cars.
The Wateree is falling very slowly, having accom
plished only four or live inches to-day. It is not pro
bable that the conm ction with the Wilmington and
Manchester Road can Is* rc-opcned under a week, the
trestle work being in several places three nr four feet
under water. The passengers for the North who ex
pected logo by that route, Imve como up to Coliim-
bill. .Some of them} speak [of going on by Charlotte,
and others are inclined to return to Charleston und
there take the New York steamboat.
The Greenville Road is injured hero and there for
near live miles, but the curs rim through. The great
est ! ii jury i* on Col. B'lokter'splantatimi, where there
is a break of about throe hundred yards, it is thought
that the injury to this road can bo repaired in six
weeks.
The only injury to thn Charlotte Road is very slight,
consisting of only a washing away of a portion of
the embankment at Fishing Creek. Viator.
The Freshet.
Rome, for the la-t few days, has been " half seas
over." We hope no one will conceive Die idea, from
the above quotation, tlmt our citizens imve been drunk
for a week. We don't mean that; but simply that
we have been Hooded,overflowed,inundated, submerg
ed by the waters of tho Etowah and Oostanaiila riv
ers. Our little city has presented the appearance of
a modern Venice, as well us modern Rome. Our
citizens go from shop to shop, not in (iondolus,as the
ladies do in Venice, hut in dug-outs. Dry good* and
groceries, of all kinds, have taken a considerable
rise, having Itceti moved to Die upper shelves. The
backwater around Mr. Clay's hardware store lias been
appropriately named •' Sweet-Water Lake,” from tho
fact that several hogsheads of Muscovado have been
dissolved therein. Major Black lias a very large cel
lar full of grog, with which he proposes to treat all
who will honor him with a call. It is unfortunate
that tliu Major neglected to stop the bung-holes In his
barrels. Our neighbor. Die Courier, lias shared tlgj
fate of his down town patrons, und we looked every
moment to see tlio platform of the editor give way ;
but by making a slight change in his position, lie was
enabled to maintain his ground, [water.] The South
erner occupies high ground, and, consequently, es
caped the mcouvciiiciice of our less fortunate cotem
porary. It is now proposed to change the name of
the Smith Western! of the town from I’ittsburg to Am
sterdam. The freshet was an ihchmid a half higher
than it was iu 1851. Man;- -
cleared laud on the rivers,
any a limn who lias recently
■a, has had his logs rolled with
very little trouble. The water is rapidly subsiding.
We have heard of no accidents thus far.
Incidents ok tiie Freshet—Mr. Smith's New
Bridge—The new bridge recently built by William
It. Smith across the Etowah river, gave way with a
crash on Monday, and floated down the river. Our
citizens assembled nt the lower bridge,expecting that
tlio floating one would carry it away. As jt reached
the spot, it broke in two and handsomely floated un
der. •• Three cheers for Pennington," rent the air.
We understand that Mr. Smith, with his characteris
tic energy uud enterprise, has determined to rebuild
State Road Bridge.—Some mischeivous fellow re
ported on Monday morning tliat a telegraphich dis
patch had been received, to the effect that the State
Railroad Bridge, near C’aitersville.lmd washed away,
nnd was coming rapidly down the river. The b'liovs
determined to enjoy the sport of seeing tliat pass,
mu) accordingly congregated nt the Etowah bridge
for that purpose. Afu rwuiting nearly all day iu ihc
cold wind with anxious expectation, ft finally leaked
out that a hoax had been practised upon them. Those
who had been so “ tuck in ” concluded to leave.
—Rome Southerner.
Freshet.—The late rains have done serious damage
we learn, on the river bottom plantations, wnsliiug
away bridges, fences, Ac. Among other disasters re
ported. we hear of several bridges lost cm the South
l'litnkroad. and also that the new bridge on tho Tal
lapoosa nt Tallahassee, had been swept away. The
Alabama is at a much higher stage than at anytime
during the season—and Die bend opposite this place

The Larokst Vessel in the World—The new
steamer Himalaya, which recently arrived at South
ampton, from London, having averaged 14 miles an
hour during her voyage, is said to lie the largest ship
in the world. She i* intended for the conveyance of
the mails between Southampton and Alexandria.
Tiie Himalaya is of 3,550 tuns register, or 4,000 tuns
burthen, English measurement, nnd is of the extruor-
dinary length or 372 feet 0 inches. This is 57 feet
longer than McKay’s big ship. Iter breadth for tan
nage is 46 feet 2 inches; depth of told 24 feet 9
inches. Kho is built of iron. Tho cylinders of her
engines arc 81 inches in diameter, with 3J feet stroke,
mid the revolutions arc Iroin 50 to 60 per minute. The
screw is n two bludcd one, 18 feet in diameter, and
weighs nearly seven tuns. The Himalaya is ship-
rigged, and carries masts, spurs, mid sails, of a size

Do all in your power to leach your children self-
government. If a child is passionate, teach him, hy
gentle and patient means, to curb his temper. If
ho is greedy, cultivate liberality in him. If ho is
selfish, promote generosity. If lie is sulky, charm
him out of it hy encouraging frank, good humor. In
short, give your children the habit of overcoming
their besetting sin.
