Official Paper of the City and County.
FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 43
Arrival of lhe Quaker City.
New York, May 22.—The Quaker City has
arrived. It Is rumored at Ilavaua that the
Spanish Government is tlttiug out an expedi
tion to proceed immediately to Costa Rica, to
operato against Walker; also Vera Cruz is to be
blockaded and bombarded by the Spanish for
ces, to enforce the settlement of the clnims of
the Spanish Government.
From Washington.
Washington, May 22.—The Hon. Preston
Brooks, of South Carolina, assaulted Senator
Sumner, or Massachusetts, in the Senate Chain-
l>er, to slay, while seated writing, striking him
a stunning blow on the head with a heavy cane,
cutting and eoutusing him very badly, repent
ing it frequently. The lion. 1.. M. Keitt, also
irorn South Carolina, attempted to prevent any
interference. Mr. Crittenden,who was present,
prouounces it n shumeftil outrage. The provoca
tion was Mr. Sumner's speech on Mr. Butler.
New York Market.
Nrw York, May 22.—Cotton is firm. Sales
for the week (one day we sup|>ose,) amount to
1000 bales. Flour has advanced 6d. to 1?.
Wheat advanced one to two pence. Sterling
Exchange is quiet.
Prksidkntiai. Vetoes.—Those who hold to
the strict construction principles which have
marked the State Rights politicians of the
South will thank the President for the vetoes
sent into Congress last Monday. Not that wc
pretend to say that all the advocates of State
Rights believe river and harbor improvements
by the Gensral Government unconstitutional
There is considerable discrepancy of opinion
among them ou this point. The Representative
Irom our District, for example, interprets the
constitution in regard to matters ot this kiud
mure liberally than we do. Ho voted, we be
lieve, for one of the vetoed nets, and without
that vote it is possible the Savannah River bill
might never have passed through the House of
Representatives; yet, while we have no censure
for him, believing that he acted conscientiously
upon a question in regard to which men hon
estly differ, wo must express our unqualified ad
miration of the course of the President.
Gen. Pierce, first and last,—in that which
was least uo less than iu that which was great
est,—a* President, kb* shown himself true to
the strict construction, State Rights principles
to which the advocates of his nomination pledg
ed him at Baltimore. Well do we recollect the
assurances given to us personally by Harry
Hibbard of New Hampshire, several days be
fore the assemblage of the last National Demo-
emtic Convention—assurances which,it may uot
perhaps be too much to say, did sometime to
bring to him the vote of the Georgia delegation
when that vote did very much to secure Ids
nomination.
In a little more tlum a week Gen. Merck's
name will come before another national nomi
nating convention. Georgia’s vote will a second
time be given to him, if Georgia’s delegates
represent the sentiments of her Democracy. If
nominated, Gfio* -r-d the Union will ratify
toe selection ; if uot, he will, at any rate, carry
into lotirement this proud testimony, that as
Chie f Magistrate of the confederacy he has, rai
sed uced by the persuasions of friends, unnwed
by the threats of enemies, been true to bis prin
ciples, true to the Union, true to the Constitu
tion of his country.
Hltljny Railroad Enterprise.
Ellijay, G a., May 17th, 1850.
Largs Assembly.—A public meeting ortho
citizens of Gilmer county was held In the Court
House on the 15tU lust, for the purpose of tak
ing notion on the importance or building the
EU\Jny railroad, when Benjamin Johnson was
called to tho chair, and W. U. Coleman request
ed to act ns Secretary.
Col. E. W. Chastain and Geu. A. J. Harwell
being called upon to address the meeting, who,
In their spirited manner, portrayed the vast
importance of the work at some length, when
the following preamble and resolutions were
submitted :
We believe it is the true interest of every sec*
Uou of the State to connect the copper mines In
the vicinity ot Ducktown with the State Road
at some eligible point.
It is manifestly a work of great importance
to the great, growing and rapidly increasing bu
siness of the State Road, in which our whole
people have an interest.
It canuot fail to be seen by the most ordinary
capacity that all our railroad operations, pene
trating tho whole State from Atlanta, have a
deep and abiding iuterest in this enterprise, for
we hazard nothing in nfilrming. positively, that
a* a feeder to our eutirc railroad system the con
templated road would have no equal.
We are not unmindful oi the fact that these
great advantages, which are in the easy grasp
of our people and our own State, are in danger
of being lost to us partially, If not entirely, by
the rival interests and enterprises iu other
States.
Therefore, iu accordance with our feeliugs of
interest in tills question, we ask our people, our
whole people, aud especially the citizens of the
counties through which the road would run, and
our railroad corporations and companies, to
awake to tho importance of tiie enterprise, and
take immediate action.
It is known to us who live iu this section, that
the route for llie road from points ou theWestcrn
and Atlaatic Railroad Is not only a practicable
one, but u very cheap one. We fear that this
is not generally known, and therefore earnestly
entreat our friends of the Georgia Railroad, the
Macon and Western Railroad, and the Central
Railroad Companies, and other connecting
roads, to aid us in surveying the route, and re
porting upon its practicability and utility.—
Therefore,
1st. Resolved, That a committee of three be
appointed by the Chairman of this nieetiug to
correspond with the Presidents of the alwve
roads on this subject.
2d. Resolved, That a subscription iu each
militia district of this county Ik* taken to defray
the expenses of a survey of the route.
‘.Id. Hi solved That we ask the* railroad com
panies to aid us liberally, by subscription, for this
purpose.
1th. Resolved, That we recommend to tho cit
izens of Fannin,Gordon, and other comities who
feel au interest in this groat work, to hold meet
ings immediately on this subject.
5th. Resolved, That wc fully and cordially sus
tain Gov. Johnson in vetoing the charter of the
Hiwassce railroad bill, and think great injus
tice is being done by public meetings held, im
pugning the motives of the Executive of our
.State, who acted from principles of State pol
icy.
Utli. Resolved, That the above proceedings
be mihiisticd in the Savannah Weekly Journal
ami Weekly Constitutionalist, witli a request
that all others friendly to the cause will copy.
On motion, the above preamble and resolu
tions, without dissent, were adopted.
The Chair then uppohited J. J. Field, R. R,
Umit and E. W. Chastaiu,u committee of three,
to correspond as requested iu resolution 1st.
The meeting then adjourned.
Benjamin Johnson, Chairman.
W. R. Culeean, Secretary.
Gov. Kectler.
Those disposed to complain of the appoint
ment of Reeder as Governor of Kansas—ami
we confess to have linen of their number—should
not fail to note what our Washington corres
pondent says of his sentiments, in regard to
slavery, at the time of his appointment. Who
could have believed that the mail who could as
sert that he would ns soon buy a negro as a hog,
would in a few months liecome the idolized
leader of the anti-slavery party 1
The treachery of Reeder has proved hisselec.
tion to have beeu. indeed, unfortunate, yet we
do not see how the Administration is to lie
blamed for hla appointment. For, had he re.
raained true to the sentiments professed by him
when seeking the place, the fact that he is a
Northern man, would have made his hilliienec
much more potential for the introduction of sla
very into Kansas than could have been that of
any Governor taken from the South.
We have but to odd that the statement of our
correspondent is one which wo believe may lie
received with implicit credit. Will not the oppo
sition journals of Georgia, who linve shown the
good taste frequently to draw from his letters,
copy that one to which we have referred ?
Mr. Brook'* ntl nek on Senator Sumner,
An account will ho seen under our Telegraphic
licud of a most outrageous assault made by
Mr. Brooks on Senator Sumner. 11 the facts be
as they are stated, it most undoubtedly would
be justly characterised as such.
The dispatch must bo received with great
caution, as we have lio doubt that .subsequent
disclosures will change the appearance of the
matter which looks now extremely discredi
table.

Tl»e UnitedStatesCnmiU-Their Voyage
VTIiclr Pedigree, Uses, Ac>
New Oki,bans, May 15, 185(1.
Dear Della : I, your volunteer reporter, left
this city on the 0th, at 7, A. M., ns a passenger
iu the good old U. S. transport Fashion, com
manded by an old friend and uuvlgutor, Capt.
Baker. On the evening of the same day we
made last to the U. S. storeship Supply, on
board of which were the long expected “cam-
els.’’ A week before the Supply had tried to
land them in Texas, but the weather was so bad
that it could not bo done, and it was deemed ad
visable to take them out iu the Mississippi river,
for which purpose the Fashion was despatched
by Col. I). D. Tompkins.
But l am straying from my subject,
The United States ship Supply loft the poll
of Smyrna on the 15th of February, having .‘13
camels in all on board, nine of them being dro
medaries, or ridiug camels. Most persons on
this side of tho Atlantic are under the impres
sion that a dromedary only differs from the or
dinary camel by buying but one hump on its
back; but I must tell them that such is not so,
us the only difference is that the dromedary is
much better made, more symmetrical, and there
fore much fleeter. Two of them are Bactrian,
or two humped camels, which were brought
over for breeding. Twenty-two are beasts of
burthen. Of tills original stock ono only died,
and that by accident in bringing forth. Six
calves were born on the passage. Three of these
died from accidents, one of them from “fits,**
leaving two, which are alive und thriving, and
making in all fit, being one more than was
j started with.
1 The ship arrived at Matagorda on the 2Uth of
I April, having had sr» days’ sea voyage. One of
these camels was on board ship niue months,
ho being m present tons from ,tlio Regent of
Tunis, Six of the dromedaries were presented
to us (“Uncle Sam") by the Viceroy of Egypt.
Most of them liave shed their liaiiv and they
are more ov less perfectly naked.
Thecross of the Bactrian, or two-liuraped, with
tho one-humped female,producesa powerful one-
Iiumncd animal called a “Boogdhu ” or “Tiulu,”
which resembles n mule in its inability to con
tinue its race ; or if it does procreate, the issue
is a puny, worthless creature called u “Kou-
hours.” A “Boogdhu,” or “Tiulu,” will carry for
short distances from twelve to five hundred
Washington Correspondence.
Vetoes of two River and Harbor Bills—Savon-
nah Appropriation—Senator Sumner—Hie
Appearance and Manner,
Washington, May 19.
Two vetoes hare signalised the day—of the
bill making an spproprlatioQ for the deepening
of the St. CUlr Plate, in Michigan, end of that
making an appropriation for Improving the
mouth of the MlsaUaippl river. In this the
President la consistent with himself—with his
past actions and declarations; but whether his
course consists well with the present need of the
country, with the proaent wishes of the people,
and with his present popularity remains to be
seen. These vetoes were by no means general*
ly expected. The friends of other improvement
bills consequently stand in fear, as they have
good reason to do. But the principle of the
Savannah river appropriation does not come
within the range of the inhibition the President
has prescribed to himself.
Mr. Sumner has the floor of the Senate to-
day^ind is delivering a nineteen column speech,
as I am privately assured ; for these speechess
are often In type before their delivery. Not on
ly ho9 Mr. Sumner written and printed this
speech, but he has memorised it. It is are
view of the Kansas troubles-~elaborate, thorough
and severe. It is one of the severest efforts of
its kind that has been made this session—more
preguant with denunciation than, any other-
denunciation of the Congress which enacted the
Nebraska bill, of the Senators who have lately
defended the pro-Slavery party, in Kansas, of
the President, and especially of Mr. Atchison.
He is speaking os I write, in his third hour,
and of course will lot be able to finish to-day.
Mr. Sumner is a rhetorician, and not an ora
tor. Tall, and of well developed yet not fleshy
frame, easy and light of motion, oflutelllgent
countenance and impulsive manner, aud with a
full and sonorous voice, and, as I say, a fine
rhetorician withal, he is yet notan orator. He
lacks the ease and confidence with which his
qualifications should by all means impress him
and he lacks tho free boldness with which the
convictions of right he doubtless feols should
inspire him. In the most severe passages he
utters, he appears to be, not wishing for un
antagonist, but deprecating the appearance of
one. Ho always seems to the listener to be put*
ting forth the truth, or what he regards as such,
dubiously, which I used to hear it said, was “not
half as powerful as a lie well stood to!”

The Hughes* Printing Telegraph In-
itrument.
New York, Mav 19—We are gratified to
learn that this wonderful Invention has at length
received its finishing touch, anil will be imme
diately placed upon the new line between this
city und Philadelphia. We are assured, upon
undoubted authority, that the machines, so far
as it has been possible to test them through a
coil of wire 100 miles in length, have realized
the most sauguine expectations of Mr. Hughe*
aud his friends, and there appears to be no rea
son to doubt that the invention will speedily
work au entire revolution in the telegraphing
throughout the world. This invention may be
called a Printing Press and Telegraphic Instru
ment combined, for it prints all messages iu
plain Roman capitals, with unerring correctness,
and at au almost incredible rate of speed, aver
aging, In the ordinary despatch of business,
from twenty to twenty-five thousand letters per
hour.
The Hughes’ Instrument clearly demonstrates
the practicability of sending and receiving mes
sages in opposite directions over the same wire,
and at tho same instant of time, and with the
utmost ease, regularity and certainty. It will,
consequently, require but one wire, and but one
operator at any given point, to send aud re
ceive as much business as can be transmitted by
the aid of four or five operators, and unequal
number of wires under the Morse system. Anoth
er equally important pecularlty connected with
the Hughes invention is the undoubted fact,
that it will work perfectly iu all states of the
atmosphere,neither mist, rain, or snow having
any perceptible effect upon it. Therefore, at
seasons when the Morse aud House instruments
are utterly powerless, even in circuits of 50
miles, there is every reason to believe that
the Hughes instruments will work reliably in
circuits of one or two thousand miles.
The simplicity and durability of the new ma
chine will compare favorably with the Morse,
and is vastly superior in these respects to the
House invention. The governing principle of
this invention is wholly dissimilar to that of the
Morse, House, and all other telegraph instru
ments, and, consequently, there can be no dif
ficulty on the score of the patent, which, we
understand, has been sold to the American
Telegraph Company, (a new association, hav
ing its headquarters in this city, but composed
of gentlemen of the highest respectability in
different sections of the united States and the
British North American Provinces, and of which

The Growi.no Wheat Crop.—We liuve ad
vices from all parts of the western States, in
cluding Kentucky, Tennessee,Missouri, Illinois,
Ohio, Michigan, Iowa, and Wisconsin, from
which we learn that with the exception *f Ten
nessee, where it has been frozen out, the grow
ing wheat looks exceedingly promising and
healthy. The breadth of land sown with wheat
last fall, was greatly increased over former
years, and the indications now are that, should
the present month prove favorable, the wheat
crop of 1850 will be the largest, by twenty-five
per cent, ever gathered in tho Union.
The large quantity of snow which Tell at the
commencement of the cold weather, and which
remained on the ground during the entire win
ter. protected the wheat plants from the severe
frosts, and as soon ns the warm suaH of April
heated the earth, they sprung up withuuuRual
vigor. If warm, wet weather should prevail
during the latter part of this month, and the
first week or two of June, it is to bo feared that
the growth will bo too rapid and luxuriant, and
would causo the stocks to “lodge,” and in such
case the rust, tho great enemy of the wheat
crop in this climate, would destroy the hope of
the husbandman. Under these circumstances,
it may bo sot down as ou admitted fact, that
the wheat crop caunot ho decided ui>on with any
certainty, until after tho middle of June.—Cin.
