He gives It a different Interpretation. His opinion was and Is, that It furnished no license to settlers north of the line of 30 30 to establish slavery. In other words, his idea of “non-intervention” made it altogether a one sided affair. Under It as ho understood tho Compromise the North was fully authorized to bring in free States south of that line, but the South was still pro hibited from briuglug in slave States north of it, And yet many who were Compromise men in’60 for tho sake of the “great principle” are now supporters of Mr. Fillmore. To show that we do him and them no in justice, we quote from his late Rochester speech: “Those measures, usually called tho Cornpro miso Measures of I860, were not in all respects what I could have desired, but they were the best that could be obtained alter a protracted discussion that shook the Republic in Its very foundation, and I fslt bound to give them my official approval. Not only this, but perceiv ing there was a disposition to renew the agita tion at the next session, I took the responsibili ty of declaring, iu substance, in my annual message, that 1 regarded these measures as a “final settlement of this question, and that the laws thus passed ought to be maintained, until timeund experience should demonstrate the necessity of mollification or repeal.” Ithen thought that this excitiug subject was at an end aud that there would bo no further occasion 1st 2d. 3d. 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th ALTERNATES.

Job Printing Promptly, Neatly anil Cheaply^Done. The public in general, and oar Democratic friends in particular, will remember that there is connected with the Georgian 4* Journal es tablishment ono of the most thoroughly equip ped job offices in this section of the Union. If we are correctly advised, some of the most beautiful specimens of job work ever done in Savannah have lately passed from under our presses. Give as a trial. Our facilities enablo us to execute every de scription of letter press work from a mammoth poster to the smallest card, aud from a book to a circular, with neatuess and dispatch, upon the most satisfactory terms.

Nicoll, Cohen and Ward, on tho occasion of his visit to Savannah, occur these words : “They doubtless thought not, uud determined even to strain their consciences and pay him/mch compliments as they might bestow upon an ex* President.” This language, IT taken seriously, places those gentlemen, without their knowledge or authority, in a position which they are by no meanB content to occupy. Holding the places which they then did—tho first as a judicial officer, the second as Aider- man, and the third as Mayor of our city,—they are quite willing that in the relation of oppo nents of Mr. Fillmore, their complimentary notices of the distinguished guest of the city may stand as the record of that transaction. to introduce it into the legislation of Congress. Territorial governments had been provided for all the territory except that covered by the Mis souri Compromise, and had no suspicion that that that was to be disturbed. I have no hesi tation in saying what most of you know alrea dy, that I was decidedly opposed to the dis turbance of that compromise. Good faith, as well as the peace of the coun try, seemed to require that a compromise which hud stood for more than thirty years should not be wantonly disturbed. These were my senti ments then,fully and freely expressed, verbal ly and iu writing, to all my friends, North ant South, who solicited my opinion. This repea seems to havo been a Pandora’s box, out or which havo issued all tho political evils that new atfiict the country, scarcely leaving a hope behind, and mauy, 1 perceive, are ready to at tribute all these to our Southern brethren. But is this just? (No, no.) It must bo borne in mind that this measure originated with a Northern Senator and was sustained and sanc tioned by a Northern President. I do not re collect that ever a petition from a Southern State solicited this repeal; and how could south ern members of Congress reflue a boon thus of fered by the North to the South ? It could onl ’ bo done by sacrificing themselves upon the a! • ter of their country lor their country’s good; and this is certainly expecting too much from political men in times like these. The blame, therefore, it appears to me with all due defer* enco, is chiefly chargeable to those who origi nated this measure; and however we may de plore the act, it affords no just ground for con troversy with onr Southern brethren—certainly none by which they should be deprived of the fr political rights.” (cotamkirilMo.] ’ ^ ta td, I cannot bitter •pandit than bjr writing yon.

When we recollect that the land seen by ub wastlieidantieal group seen by the look-out aloft of the daring crew of Columbus, we can easily imagine their delight by a comparison of that experienced by us. We immediately tucked ship, heading S. E., after an unsuccessful attempt to get sound ings. Sunday, Juno 15.—Havo run the same course (S. E.) all night, up to 8 .o'clock this murning, Hon. P. S.

A dispatch from Washington says: Col. Brooks stated In his speech that in anti cipation of the action of tho House, be had ton days since sent his resignation to Gov. Adams. There was decided applause in the galleries during the delivery of Ills speeoh, especially at points where ho replied to-WoodruiT and Rem ington. Shocking Mukdkk ok a Youno Laiiv.—A letter in tho New York Tribune, dated Erie co., Fa., July 8, relates tho following tragedy growing out of a love nllalr: A man by the name of Huyt hud for some time been paying Ids attentions to a Miss Allen. Ha waa over 10 yearn old, while she was ill her 15th year. The girl’s lulhcr had asked lloytl for tho loan of a revolver, which ho was known to have, to shoot rjrta with. Ilo had, according ly, loaded every barrel, und after dinner pro ceeded to tho house »r Allen, for tho double purpose of seeing Ills daughter and delivering bis pistol: hut after spending sum* time with the girl, she told him thatsho would not marry him, and that if ho was out of tho way she (maid get other bonus or another liniiu, when 11,1(1,01.1 n mntiinnUii linultnllfiti Im ilonm without a moment’s hesitation, ho drew from his pocket tho pistol, ami placing it to her head deliberately fired, when sue screamed and fell Hethonplckod|her up and laid heron tho lounge or settee, when he fired a second lau rel. the hall passing through her head forward of her ears. Tho mother of the girl, who was In au adjoining room, on hcai'ing|licr scream, started to go to her assistance, hut Ilnyt com menced firing at her also, but without effect. He then immediately left tho house and ran In to the woods, os was supposed for tho purpose of secreting himself, hut instend of so doing went os quietly ns possible and gaveliimscls up to the proper authorities. Iu his exnm'n itlon lie said that ho *had no intention of shooting or hurting his victim a minute before tho .deed was done, He confessed everything, saying he was perfectlysano, hut docs not know why he fired at the girl s mother, oh he did not want to bum her. He was committed. “Stephen ArnoldP’Et tu,Brute”: One of the speakers at the Knownothing State Convention spoke of the author of the Kansas-Nebraska Act—as “Stephen Arnold” —“this Arnold—tills Little Giant way oat in the West there—what’s his name?” “Douglas, Douglass,” said tho meeting, in a gnflUw of merriment, and with demonstrations of delight at the hit! Yes! in the heart of the Empire State of the South, in this insidious, indirect and unmanly way, the noble Douglas was branded as a traitor to his country, by a party which one year ago resolved that tho enemies of tho Kansaa-Nebarska bill were tho enemies of tho Constitution and the South!. Yes, tho man of all others who has shown the most indomitable courage and constancy in confronting Abolitionism upon Its own soil— the man who. in 1863, breasted the whole storm of anti-Slavery fury—the man who, with on almost peerless moral courage, dared tell his own State she was wrong, and answer back faco to face the angry scoffs, jeera and menaces of his own fellow-citizens with such a majestic bearing of conscious rectitude -with such solidity and strength of reason and argu ment, that she lias recalled and reversed her judgment—the man who, more than all others, has planted tho Democracy of this country up on true Constitutional ground, so that it is now tho solo remaining party link between the two sections of this Confederacy—yes, this man waa jeered at by a Stato Convention of Georgia ns a second Arnold. We have no words which can add force and significance to the mere fact /—Macon Telegraph. The subjoined paragraph gives a clew by which, if wo are rightly advised, tho reader’* curiosity as to the authorship of the witichsm so appropriately noticed by tiie Telegraph, may be gratified : — Knioht of the Beakd.—This chivalrous in dividual, also made a W-right violent tilt at “Old Buck.” Let him remember bis fate at the hand* of “little Eleck,” and beware of encoun tering larger game! when we tacked and run W. by B.s lat. 2Grt)7, long. 70:46. Good breeze from S. S. E. until 3 o’clock,when we were liecalnied two hours,with every indication of a storm; eight distinct g usts could be counted in tho horizon. It was eemed prudent to shorten sail, aud make oth er preparations fora squall. Fortuuutcly, we had but a moderate shower of rain, leaving us a good breeze from E. S. E., with the aid of which we were euabled to continue on our course at an 8-knot rate, oil anxiously looking for Abico Light, or Hole in the Wall, as it is laid down on the chart, when Young America was again heard from the mast-head; but in stead of land, ho, it was fish, ho. The atten tion of all was directed to a line astern, attach ed to whioh was to be seen jumping and flouii- ring a large fish, which, when pulled on board, § roved to be a dolphin. I have read many escriptions of the beautiful changes of color of this fish through the various stages of death, but to form an idea nearly correct they must be seen. Their color in health is various shades of purnlo and gold, and utter deuth a pale sil ver. Our sail master ordered the throat cut, that tho blood might escape, it being consider ed poisonous. The Ush was cooked for supper, ana, if it could be eaten without fear of poison, must be an excellent fish. Shortly alter supper, our look out discovered a revolving light, which we knew must be Ab ico. To the credit of our navigator, we mast say, that the light seen was dead ahead—prov ing that his course, from tho meridian observa tions of tho day, had directed him right to a point. Indeed, we havo good reason to believe that he understands to a dot his business, and that he is very correct iu all ids calculations. Run within five miles of the light, aud laid the vessel too, not deeming it prudent to up- 8 roach nearer so dangerous a coast ut night, [ondayJune.16,at daybreak squared away for Nassau course S. by W. Abico on the North, and Harbour Island on the South, 54 miles apart. From the entrance to Nassau is also 54 mile* without soundings. After Abico light is sunk, Nassau light is in sight. A corral reef called Hog Island crosses immediately in front of the town, between which aud the town is the Harbor where there is safe anohorago for many and large vessels. On the approurii of strangers, they wonder how it is possible to get in, for the chaunel which is very narrow, be tween the light and the port canuot be seen un til within an J of a mile. Vessels going in must be run so as to have the fort to starbard, aud the light on the extreme western end of Hog Island to Iarbard. The water inside Is so clear that objects may lie distinctly seeu at the depth of 25 or 30 feet. Wharf accommodations are very poor, freight is loaded and discharged by lighters, a tedious and expensive mode. If some man of enterprise would build a wharf iu water deep enough to aceommodato all clusscs of shippiug, it would certainly he a greut accom modation, and pay the owner a liberal profit. Tiie town is well fortified, with two large forts aud agnrison of black soldiers. Tiie Police officers, are black men, dressed entirely in white, their particular number on each arm, in large black figures: to a stranger they make an odd appearance. The nrlncipul business of the townlsdlrectly or indirectly from wrecking. Vessels are almost daily lost on tho reefs of this group. I have been told that on an average about one wreck, (or property saved) per day, is taken to Nassau from the adjacent Islands, where uil is sold at auction. New Providence Island is 21 miles long and about 7 wide, with a population of 10,000. Thu delicious,•jnucb’resembllng'ln flavour, a peach. The true grows to a largo size, aud produces much fruit. Mummy upplo (sapota) seems to be a variety of Hapaolla. Tho fruit grows very forge, but are not nearly so inubh esteemed as sapaulla;-thetreemukes u hundsoraoshade.—- Bahama Cherry.—In appoarance very much resembles the luarellu cherry of Pennsylvania, hut not similar In taste;'in the coar is to be found several small seeds os In tho apple. The troo grows to the size of a r quinco. There is another called Trinidad cherry, which only dif fers from the. former in shape. Goosberry Tree.—Grows to the height twenty feet, bears abundantly; tho fruit il similar in taste to the English goosberry, but in appearance does not resemble it. Tonka dean— 1 This plant grows well on the Island, hut is not generally cultivated. Tho seeds or bouns are used for flavouring segars. Cupor.—This is a vino growing bush, sup ported by trffias, bears well, the bud is prepared In suit aud water, and used in preparing u souse for boiled meut, Ac. Gitaba Tree.—Grows abuudauty all over the island, a small tree aud produces much fruit, of which**-celebrated- confection known as “guaba jelly” is made. Jujube Tree.—Grows well but not generally cultivated. Tho fruit is ripe late iu Septem ber: anil used for making jujube paste. The fruit resembles the crab apple. Pimento or Allspice—Tree grows to the height of thirty feet, makes a good shade; the berries aro pickled uud dried iu the sun, when they are fit for use. Noyo.—This is a vlue, cultivated on Trellis, tiie loaf is very fragrant aud the fruit is used for flavoring confectionary, etc. Noyo cordial gets its pleasant flavor from this fruit. AlmomrArrows luxuriantly, more used for its shade,than fruit, it bears abundantly, but the fruit is not ho good as from Europe. Baujau fig tree.-—This is un odd lookiug tree, the branches from the main tree grow to the grouud, when they take root und become a new tree, the limbs from this now tree again grow to tiie ground, take root, und so continue to spread, until they form a period grove ull at- tuchcd. It is not a fruit bearer,but valuable for shade. Bamboo.—Planted for bodges, aud grows very tall, bears a large blossom once in tiie year. Cotton tree.—in the absence of oak, the pride of tho States, in tlio way of trees, the cotton tree is us good a substitute, it grows toun im mense wize, and is the most noble lookiug tree on the Island. 1 was beneath one tbut shaded a space of ground 114 feet in diameter. The trunk, looks.like a map of rocks. From the main body, large flakes extend out some 16 feet looking like fragments of curb stone. It bears largo puds of cotton, very tiuo and silky in appearance, but lias not been found to suit manufactories. In staple it is long uud strong, and much tho color of tiux. India Rubber tree.—Grows luxurantly, but is not cultivated. Banana.—Grows from u sucker, without limbs —tiie large leaves nud fruit grow from the top of the trunk,.each tree producing ono bunch of fruit nt a time. Coconut tree.—A sprout from the fruit, finds its way into tho ground and takes root, when the fruit lull's from the sprout, which continues to grow ns it were wrong end up.gTho tree blos soms when live years old; tiie blossom resembles corn tuasil, aud first makes its appearance about eight feel from the ground ; al ter which the blossom uud fruit are constantly on the tree, every crop growing above tho others, two bun ches never growing from tho same place. When the tree is very old it 1ms grown to a great height, aud the leaves and fruit form u cluster on the top. Oranges lemons and limes, grow well, but areseldoiu allowed to ripen on the trees, be cause of the demand for shipping. The char acter of the fruit has been much injured by this practice. When the fruit arives in tho States, it is forced ripe, prematurely; whou it is neces sarily sour aud uusable. Most fruit trees are planted in small hollows iu the rock, some of which are natural, and iu tiie absence of natur al cavities, they are worked out, when the tree is placed iu tho hole, aud the root covered with a Binall quantity of soil. In tills condition the tree grows and bears luxurantly, for many years. The whole island seems to be an im mense corral reef, from which the sea has re ceded. This rock contains a property well adapted to the support of tropical fruit and certain plants. There is no doubt but tbut it would be valuable as a manure, if decomposed, or grouud ns Plaster of Paris. Date.—Treo much resembles the palmetto of South Carolina ; not much grown. Mango.—Tree and fruit much resemble the pear; the fruit when quite ripe is rich and jui cy, not unlike a peach in flavor. Tamarana.—Tree grows to a forge size: leaves similar to a locust; bears abundantly; the fruit makes a refreshing drink with water, aud is much used us a preserve ; in flavor very tart. Plumb Trees.—There are several varieties, but entirely unlike »ny grown in the States. Alligator Pear, properly Arocator.—Grows to a lurge size, and produces abundantly. The fruit sometimes weigh two pounds; resemble a pear on the outside, but the interior is nearly all occupied by a seed, which is large und very hard. Thu edible part of the pear looks and tastes like marrow—used on bread, is an excel lent substitute for butter. Star Apple, Sugar Apple aud Acot are amongst the fruit ot less importance. Cosara.—A plant of Hie root of which starch is made. It is also, when cooked, a good sub stitute for potato or yum. There are two va rieties of this plant, one of which is poison ous. l’aupu Tree.—Hansomely shaped; the fruit is used for preserving; leaves aud blossoms project from tiie extreme top of the trunk, as with tho bauana. Jumba Beau.--A handsome tree, the seeds of which are used by the natives for mnkiug bracelets, necklaces, etc. Wild Pine.—A little plant similar to pine ap ple ; bears neither blossom nor fruit; is found snugly seated on tlio limb of a tree, where it is Boston Traveller his the following partifcuters of the diabolical attempt: The house in question 1* capacious and strong* ly built, two stories slid a half high in front, and three In tfle rear, with a cupalo ou top, and is worth- several thousand dollars, it 1* situated-on-Unlou-*qu»re, opposite the new Baptist meeting house, and is occupied by Mr. Wetheren, whose family numbers seven, and by his partner, Mr. Gyrus Brown, and raiuily, five in number. The explosion occurred at about 1 A. M. Mr. Wetheren and his wife slept in a chamber .n the rear, above ths sitting room, and below 'the latter la ths cellar kitchen, in which, as is supposed from the staves that were found, the keg of powder was placed. Mrs. Wetheren was aroused by tho noise' of tho explosion, and though she bad uo distinct idea or what had occurred, spoke to her hus band, who immediately became aware that a dense smoke was filling the room, the plaster ing of the sitting room below having been torn off in such a manner as to admit its free pas sage. He hurried down stairs the back way, but could not enter the kitchen on account of the thick smoke. He perceived, however, that the house was on fire, and directing^ his wife audohildrento leave by another passage-way, he obtained a firkin of water standing neur the house, and with the aid of the neighbors, who soon assembled, succeeded in quenching the flames, though the powder smoke which filled the house for several hours led the inmates to search repeatedly during the night, from four that iu some part itwus still on fire. Tho chief scene of disaster was iii tiie rear.— The kitchen is a mass of ruins. A stout brick wall is in some parte thrown down uud in others cracked and broken so that it nrtujt be demolished. The window frames uud blinds are blown out bodily, some of them landing at a considerable distance from the house. The stout partition of a shed adjoining the kitchen was thrown down, the doors being blown off and broken. The wall above the kitchen wus blown up. aud tho furniture of the sitting room had fell down, filliug the kitchen with broken stuff, furniture, bourds, crockery, Ac., in une mass of ruin. The large cooking stove iu tlio kitcheu was broken. A considerable quantity of matches were found upon the top of it, of a different knd from those used iu the house, iu tho cellar a partition was blown down und tho beams started. The parlor, which is iu front, on the same floor with the sitting room, is filled with the fragments of the furniture with which it was furnished. A heavy sofa lies in front of the fire pluce, having been thrown across the room by the rising ot a portion of the floor for about a foot. Mahogany chairs were broken into small pieces, aud a card table was nearly demolished together with many smaller articles. A look ing glass fell with the face dowuward upon tiie flour and was not broken. The window frames of this room were blown out. This is the chief dumage in the part occupied by Mr. Wetheren. Itwus fortunute for the inmates that they all slopt in the upper part of the house, which is unfqjured, the powerful powder bloat finding vent by bursting out the sides of the lower part of the building. The clock in the kitchen of Mr. Wetheren stopped at half past one, which indicates very nearly the time of the ex plosion. The iumatesof the adjoining houses were all awakened by the shock, wliien shook tiie fur niture as if an earthquake had recurred. This morning a large crowd were examining the mins, and measures were taken to have a le gal Investigation, by calling on u justice of the peace to hold a fire inquest.

For some time past intem perance lias been greatly on tlio increase, and during the present season quite a number of places havo been opened where intoxicating IL quora could bo procured without stint. Find ing the evil increasing, the ladies of that uu- usually quiet village have taken the matter in to their own hands. Yesterday morning a delegation of about seventy-five, headed by an American flag, car ried by a stout sailor, paraded through the streets, and proceeding from place to place, destroyed all tlio liquor they could lay their hands on. Demijohns und decanters were smashed, and barrels ol rum, gin and brandy were rolled into tho streets and their heads knocked In. Wherever any of the “critter” was found, loud shouts would resound from the assembled Indies.—Gloucester (Mass.) Tele graph. July \Hh. principal town is ^assail. There are' two vil lages of Africans, ono of them Gants town, im mediately iu the rear of Nassau. The houses are one story high, with roofs thatched with Palmeto. to 1834, Slavery existed ou tiie Island up I Whon it was abolished by an net of Furl foment, sic “ Lord Pembroke's Recipe foe Marino Port Wine.—A short timo back, at a public dinner, lzonl Palmerston related a pleasant story how a certain I.ord Pembroke was in tho habit of tolling ids guests thntjjfor the goodness ol all his other wines they had the assurance only of his wine morrimuts, but for tho excellence of the port he could personally vouch, having made it himself. The following, a correspon- dent Informs us, is tho veritable recipe which h s Lordship adopted:—Eight gallons of gen- uiuo port wine, forty gallons of cidor, brandy to till tho hogshead. Elder tops will give it the proper roughness, nnd cochineal whatever strength of coloring you please. Tho quantity made should not be less than a hogshead. It should bo kept foil two t years include, and as long in bottle before it is used. Tlio New York Churchman demands that an example l>o mado of Rev. D. Y. Tying or Pldludelphlt, for his recent “Kansas Ser won.” with a proviso that ail slaves then iu bondage, should serve out an apprenticeship with their master or owner, of seven years; accordingly since 1841 there have been uo slaves there. The negroes are generally tall, well made men, and in habits rather immoral; little res- S ect is paid to important coutructs, many of iem have been taken from unlawful slavers, und are “tattooed,” according to the order of the particular tribe, they may have been mem bers of in Africa. Most of the small trade is done by negroes, fruit tiring the principal item. The meat exhibit on tiie market is not invit ing, except mutton, which is very good. The sheep seem to be adapted to this climato, being covered witli a coat of hair; giving them very l«uch the appearance of goaty- I saw some in tlio country quite fat. The market is well supplied with fish amongst them may ho found turbit, bone fish margute, angel, snapper, grunt, yellow-tail, barauutu, hound, amber fish, black fish, tang, u variety of shad, beside turtle,speckled lobster aud conk; tlio latter is quite an article of food on the Island. The only small animal of gamo Is the raccoon, which are quite numerous. There are very few birds—tho principal aro quails and wild pigeons. Tho latter uro quite nu merous in tho full months, and have whito heads. We found a visit at tlio fruit and botanic garden of Dr. Dumcorao, quite a treat; the Dr. treated us witli the utmost degree of kindness, sparing no pains to give us every information witli respect to fruit und flowers. Our attention was first attracted to tlio screw *iina (pundamus) by its singular uppeuranco; tio leaf is similar to tliatof the nine-applo, hut ‘ Pingy; looks to Thu limnil icon much larger, very tough and stringy; looks to be Hulteble for papor making. The broad tree cullucl water from the atmosphere, which is conveyed to the stock, where it is held in the hollow of a leaf. It is said that in very dry weather the birds drink from this plant. Pine Apple.—The blossoms, winch resemble miuiaturo sun flowers, make their appearance about 15 Indies from the grouud, where the fruit grows uud ripens. Tho plant blossoms when 18 months old; ut the end of fourmonths more tho fruit is ripe nnd ready to pluck. The small slips mirrouuding tho truit are then set out, each producing a new pluut. A sucker from tlio old plant is allowed to grow, which also produces un apple for tho next year. An acre of land will support 24,000 plants; they arc planted 14 inches apart, und require to be kept clear of weeds, but the ground is not worked alter the plants are set out. There are several varieties: the sugar loaf, bird eye, Spanish sugar loaf, etc. The former is most esteemed. The same field will produce but three corps, when the land is applied to other purposes, and new grounds planted. Beene Plant.—Grows luxuriantly but not spontaneous, of little use on the island, us its mcdiciual quality is but little known. Myrtle.—Grows spontaneous on the ndjacont Islands; myrtle wax,mado from tho bud is quite uu item of trade. None of the forest trees common to the States uro to ho found on tlio Island. The only pluut growing spontaneous aud ill large quan tities common to the States is hroud foot. It is found iu almost every State in the Union. Tho climate solubrious, mercury raugiug throughout tho year from 60 to 100 degrees, Summer generally from 82 to 88, highest 100, winter 60 to 70. Tho inhabitants are hospi table, klud aud polite. The town well located on a slope of the range, so that, each street back overlooks ull in trout, all having an open view of the sea, as well as the advantage of sea breeze. A. Bummmaii is the present Governor of tiie Group, aud is quite popular and much liked. Mr. Freeman is American Consul at Nassau, Imt wo were uot so fortunute as to meet him, he is highly Himken of as an officer, and gives general satisfaction, Tlio habits of tbo people are decidedly Eng lish, they ride iu English carriages, dialect English, and reeling English: Imt are almost entirely doiiendent upon tho united States for what they buy uud sell. Aud tbo only rireuiu- stunco that strikes one from the States is that they should 1*1 ong to the other sfdo of the ocean.
