IfEORM & JOURNAL. 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. Wc know Mr. Brooks to Im? a man of great 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!” Impartial. 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 it is sufficient to say, that Peter Cooper, Esq., is the president, and Wilson G.

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.

Witnets the following: Washington, May 19.—Senator Sumner's Kansas speech is the most masterly, striking and scathing production of tbe session. The galleries were crowded with intellect, beauty aid fashion, and the ante-rooms were also thronged. His excoriation of Douglas was scornfully with ering and scorching. He designated Acnnfor Butler as the Don Quixote of slavery, and Doug las aa ita Sancho Panza. Mr. Sumner never be fore made such an impression iu force, manner, and emphatic style. He was animated and glow ing throughout, hurling defiance among the op position, and bravely denouncing the Kans! * swindle from first to last Some passages quite electrified the Chamber,and gave a new concep tion of tbe man. Finer effect has rarely ken produced. Congressional. Washington, May 20. -8enate.—Mr. Sea ard ineffectually urged the passage of the H'use joint resolution granting a government ship to convey food to the Cape Verde sufferers. The Consular and Diplomatic Appropriation bill was passed. Mr. Renjamin, from the Committee on Com merce, reported a joint resolution requiring the Commiraioner of Patents to take tbe necessary steps to obtain information relative to the cod sumption and growth of tobacco and eotton iu the different countries of the world. The resolution was passed. Mr. Sumner concluded his speech on Kan-a- afflrire. Ut. Casa characterised Ur. Sumner's Kauai speech aa the most anti-American In Ita ctaarar- ter that he had ever heard. Ueasrs-Douglaa of Illinois, and Maaon of Vir glnla, said Ur. Sumner was unfit for nswdnion with gentlemen, and wae entirely destitute of troth. Ur. Sumner replied in a strain of bitter vul garity. Great sensation was produced In the gallery, lobby, and in the body of tbe Home, many members crowding Into the Senate to hear such an unusual and indecent harangue. House.—Ur. Bennett, of N. Y., from the Committee on PubUc Lands, reported a hill r ating 1,0*8,000 acres of land In Wisconsin aid in the construction of three railroad, therein, of an aggregate extent of 500 miles.
