Womlerf.lt Etacnpe from n Ferocious
Bull.
In the town of Bridgewater, last week, Brace
Hall, a little son uf Deacou Hall, of that placo,
was grievously gored by a hull, and almost mi
raculously escaped with his life.
The bull was a line young animal, whom the
lad—only some nine years old—had been in
the habit of driving, and it had uever niani est-
ed any considerable viciousness; Hut boys,who
had a bathing place iu a brook thut runs thro*
its pasture, had worried it by shaking their
clothes at it, and thus getting up the excite
ment of a chase, on Monday of last week,
little Braeo was passing carele sly through the
field, where were some forty nuimals, with this
bull among them, when it -® ”-.itly set upon
him, and tossed him repeatedly upon its horns.
A faithful dog which accompanied the hoy
attacked the bull, and caught upon its neck
with firm tce$h. The Iwllovving aud wild run
ning about Oi tho other cuttle in the Held, made
UDs«ri exciting scene. For ubout eight rods
the bull tossed the boy, tearing his clothes com
pletely off from him; uud the boy all tho time
endeavouring to reach a fence so ns to escape.
He had ulready touched the boards, when the
bullnguiu tossed him, aud his head struck
against the fence, teariug the scalp horribly.
But fortunately the horns of the auimal had
wrenched one of the boards oil’, and the victim
still self-possessed, escaped through the open
ing so opportunely made, into an adjacent lane-
The bull seemed more intensely maddened at
this escape, aud with nlmo.-.t human sagacity
turned down toward an opening- into the lane
some distance off. Hut the by had meanwhile
climed over unother fence, aud was beyond the
wild beast’s reach.
Completely exhausted, ho could do no more;
the faithful dog who had vainly endeavored to
restrain the beast, ha.steued to the boy’s father,
and by signs and moans attracted Ids attention,
and led him to the presence of his wounded
son. He lay bleeding aud nuked, but yet alive.
He was taken home and cared for, and we
understand there is every reason to belive ho
will recover from his injuries.
The self-possession of t!.c boy alone saved his
life, and with tho fidelity of the dog,deserves to
l» recorded. The bull was fenced in and shot.
A Bostonian In Search of n Wife.
A spruce, well dressed young man hailing
from Boston (says the Washington .Star of 2d.j
applied to Commissioner Moneypenny yester
day, for iuforinutiou us to tbc habits uud
customs of the Shawuces. The Commissioner
required the object ol the inquiry. The young
gentleman stated that lie had understood that
the principal Chief of thut nation was pos
sessed of large property in the way of money,
and Bluves and lands—was willing to bestow a
largo amount on any well recommended white
man who would marry his daughter, and that
be was in for It.” To an imprivy as to whether
his object was to ascertain tho customs as to
transfer the property, or those iu regard to the
rite of marriage, he, replied, •' I want to know
whether I cau hold the property, aud as 1 have
never seen either father or daughter, I want
you to give me a letter of introduction.”
The Commissioner suggested to the young
man the difficulty as to his holding skives
when it was to be supposed that lie was a free
state man. Hut he replied that he wouldn't lie
E articular on thut score. He 41 would take all
e could get—the more the better.” Upon u
suggestion that, as the young lady was a ward
of the commissioner, lie was not sufficiently ac
quainted witli him to justify such a letter, the
young gentleman offered to procure letters ol
recommendation from sundry distinguished
gentlmen—Senators aud others. These lie pro

equipped,” Ho stated thut he had culled on
the President and General Cass for letters to
the father, hut they declined interfering. To
a statement of the Commissioner's that he hud

he exclaimed eagerly, 44 You have seen her

Commissioner finally compromised the matter
by referring him to the delegate from Kansas,

Olio of the Wants of tho City.
As our city increases iu business aud popu
lation, the want of a City Directory, properly
gotteu up is the more sensibly felt. Some time
backuu enterprising gentleinun undertook to
get up a directory, aud published it for several
successive years, but for some reason „or other
it failed to be appreciated, failed to be support
ed, and was eventually abandoned. Now, tlio
want of it is greater and the chances for mak
ing it “pay” are better; aud this dull seasou,
when thero are perhaps some who are not en
gaged in a lucrative employment, is the time to
take lu baud the enterprise. That husiuess
will increase, and our population will iucreu.se
vastly the next season, we want no better
evidence than the increased husiuess facilities
—in other words, the increase of money. Re
cently several new banking institutions have
thrown open their doors, and “tho cry is still
they come.” Savannah is destined to be a
point of attraction, for men of Capital, and men
seeking business locations, and we anticipate a
ratio of increase in business and population in
our city, without a precedent in her history.
The weather for the past month lias no dou
promoted ton great extent the unusual degree
of health, our city now enjoys. The showers
have been just sufficiently frequent to keep
down the clouds of dust which accompany
drought. Yesterday looked a little towards a
“dry spell ’ but in the evening we were visited

Board of Health cannot be questioned, and we
are greatly indebted to them for the cleanly and

good citizen to feel ids own responsibility in
the matter of keeping down and abating all
nuisances that might promote disease. With

man-like manner. Tim dredge has ample ac

Culm.
Tho Washington correspondents of several
of our exchanges assert positively that tho in
fluence of Great Britain has Inicn lately brought
to licar for the purpose of inducing Spain to
sell Cuba to the United Stutes. Now, lot us
usk, does any man believe that if Fillmore were
President he would permit the acquisition of
that island, even ns a gift? Remember that
when Texas was seeking annexation he said ho
would never vote for her admission until she
ubolishcd slavery. Such, we do not question,
is his feeling nutu hi regard to Cuba. On the
other baud, the controlling reason why Mr. Bu
chanan has opposed the transfer of that island
to any other power than the United States was
that hucIi transfer would bo followed by eman
cipation, to the eminent hazard of tho South.

Mr. Buchanan’* Peeling* inward* ilia
Month In 1840*
The extract* copied below, are taken from a
speech delivered by Mr. Buchanan lu tho House
of Representatives In 1820. They show what
his feelings thon were In relation to tho Island
of Cuba. Thow show unmistakably that he was
oven at that time, In favor of tlie acquisition of

tlon to the South.
At tho period of which we speak, Mexico aud
Cotomklu threatened Cuba, as France end
Spain have since douo—they threatened to
wrest her from tho parylitlo hands of Spain—
the conquest to bo followed by einaucipatlou.
To this result, and its comcquences to the
South, Mr. Buchanan directly applied his re
marks. Hear what ho then said :
Important as this island may he to us in a
commercial, It la still more important in a po
litical viow. From its position, it commands
tho entrauco of tho Gulls, both of Mexico and
Florida. Tho report of our Committee of For
eign Relations truly siiys, “that the Moro may
be regarded as a fortress at tlie mouth ol the
Mississippi.” Anv power iu possession of tills
island, omi with a small naval force, could
hermetically seal the mouth of the Mississippi.
Thus, the vast agricultural productions of that
valley, whiolt is drained by tlie father uf rivers,
might be deprived of tlie channel which nature
intended for their passage. A large portiou of
tlie people of tlio State, one of whose Represen
tatives! ant, find their way to tuurkcl by the
Mississippi. For this reasou 1 feel particularly
interested in this part of the subject. The grant
law of self-preservation, which is equally bind
iug on individuals uud nations, commands us,
if we cannot obtain possession of this island
ourselves, not to suffer it to puss from Spuiu
uuder whose dominion it will lie harmless,
Aud vet our Government havo never even pro-,
tested uguiust its invasion by Mexico and Co
lombia.
There'Is still another view ol the subject in
rdatlou to this isluud, which demauds purll-
cular attention. Let us fora moment look at
tlie spectacle whicli it will present, in case
Mexico aud Columbia should attepmt to revo
lutionize it.—Have they not ulways marched
uuder tho standard of uuivcrsul emancipation?
Have they not always conquered by proclaim
ing liberty to the slave^ In tlie present con
dition of tlie island, what will bo the probable
cousequeuco ? A servile war, which, in every
age, 1ms been the most barbarous aud dcstruc
live; uud which spares neither age nor sex.
Revenge, urged on by cruelty aud ignorance,
would desolate tkeluud. Tho dreadful sceues
of St. Domingo would again bo presented to
our view, uud would ugaiu be uctcd almost
within sight of our own shores. Cuba would
be a vast magazine iu the vicinity of tlio
Southern Stutes, whoso explosion would be
dangerous to their tranquility and peace.
Permit mo here, Mr. Chuirtuau, for a mo
ment, to speak upou a subject, to which I have
never belure adverted upou this Uoor, aud to
wtiicli, 1 trust, I may uever again have occasion
to advert. 1 mcau tho subject of slavery. 1
believe it to be a great political, and a great
moral evil. 1 thuuk God, my lot has been cast
iu u State where it docs not exist. Rut while
1 entertain the opinions, 1 kuow it is uu evil
at preseut WITHOUT A REMEDY. It has
.been a curse entailed upou us by thut natiou
which now makes it a subject of reproach to
our institutions. It is, however, one of those
moral evils, FROM WHICH IT IS IMPOSSI
BLE FOR US TO ESCAPE, WITHOUT THE
INTRODUCTION OF EVILS INFINITELY
GREATER. Thero uie portions of tiiis Union
iu which, if you emancipate your slaves, they
will become masters. There cau be no middle
course. Is there any man iu this Union who
could, for one momciit, iudulgo the horrid idea
of abolishing slavery, by the massacre of the
high-miuded, aud the chivalrous raco of men
in the South? I trust there is not cue. FOR
MY OWN PART I WOULD, WITHOUT
HESITATION, BUCKLE ON MY KNAP
SACK, AND MARCH in company with my
friend from Massachusetts* (Mr. Everett) IN
DEFENCE OF THEIR CAUSE.
1 am williug to consider slavery as a question
entirely domestic, and leave it those States in
which it exists. Tlie constitution of tho United
States shall be my rule of conduct upon this
subject. I have good reason to believe, tlii’t
tlie honest, but mistaken attempts of pliili
thropists, have done much injuay to the slaves
themselves. Theso attempts generally reach
tlie ears of the slave, aud while they Inspire
him with lulsc hopes of liberty, and thus make
him disobedient, and discontented with his
condition, they compel the master to use more
severity, than would otherwise have been ne
cessary.
Alter contemplating this noble aud chival
rous exhibition of regard for tlio South, ouj
readers will bo surprised to learn that Mr. Hu
chauun’s opponents hava actually gurbled tlie
foregoing passages for evidence of ids hostility
to tlie.section in whosu defence lm was ryady
to buckle on his armor! To such an infamous
depth of partizan malignity und dishonor have
some of them, ut least, not scrupled to descend
Wluit must Mr. Buchanan think—what
must Northern men who havo up to this day
stood by tlio Soutli think—of a return so base,
lor uti expression of friendship so strong. Pc*
the sake of our section, for tho,good name of
tho race let us rejoice in,,the belief that few,
very few could be found in the South so utterly
devoid of gratitude. And let us nssure our
Northern friends that not only iu words, but
by nets, tlie South repudiates such sons as
a shame and dishonor to her.

Powers qf Mr. Dallas in ths Central Ameiican
Negotiations—Great Britain Urging upon
Spain the tale qf Cuba to the United States—
Her Motive to Checkmate J<ouie Napoleon's
Spanish Projects.
Tho statement of the London Times, that Mr *
Dallai Is empowered by ids government to treat
for a definite und final seUlemenVottho Contra*
American difficulties, independent of subsequent
supervision and action by the United States, is
uot correct. Mr. Dullus T instructions give Uiin
extraordinary latitude in treating upou the ques
tion, beyond two or threo points, which are to
remain as set down by the Secretary. From
tlie fuot that tho British Minister liuvo conceded
to these demands, aud that Mr. Dallas is on ull
other subjects on tlio Central American ques
tion at liberty to entertain tlie most luvorablc
terms ottered by the British Ministry, 1ms
arisen, doubtless, the iiuprestion pronounced as
a fact by tho Times, and now iu geuural circu
lation.
i learn, from a correct source, thut the British
, government hus again been urgiug upou Spain
he sale of Cuba to the United States, us the on
ly means left to replenish her exhausted trea
sury, uud to meet the dciuaudH upon her by
Euglaudju favor of ber numerous British
claimants. This intelligence is iu every way re
liable, and also remarkable, as indicitivu ol tho
long cntertnlued opinion iu Eugluud that Cuba
must ultimately become American property by
force or purchase. This second ctlort of Eug*
land to impress this lUct favorably upon Spam
was made during tho ministry of Espurtcro,
who wus uot ulunu averse to a consideration ol
tim subject, but refused to present the paper
making it, to ids colleagues of the ministry.
Tho British Minister at the court of Madrid,
however, through whoso bauds this Uu^ortaul
document hud passed, made O'Douiieti acquaint
ed with its conteuts, uud urged tho necessity
fur uctiou, if tho Queen’s government would
hope to sustaiu itself, aud which it could uot
do without fresh pecuniary uid.
WhetUhis question *f the sale of Cuba came
before the Cortes, at tlie commouccmeut uf the
lute Spanish Miuistry, it wus uot permitted to
be discussed; but the proposition, should it be
made just uow, it is thought would meet with
a fur diU'ercut reception, it is evident that the
Queen cauuot support herself any length of time
against the revolutionary spirit growing up und
eucoiirgcd in her dominions without funds to
buck her, uud those funds are not available to
her in any effort she may make for their ac
quirement in Europe, it is quite probable that
England is aware of this, us. well as of tlie de
sign ot Louis Napoleon upon the crown of
Spuin, tho success of which would be of far
more serious consequences to Kuglaud than that
ol Cuba passing into tlie hands of the United
States. So you see thut the Cuba question is
again up; uud this time it bids fair to become
ouo of surmounting interest to England aud tlie
United States. Strange, should England
abandon her old ally lor an alliance with the
United States. Shell an event is by no means im
probable. Further information will give ud*
ditiouul interest to the present interesting re
latious of Spain aud England.

Edk.nto.n, N. C., Aug. 2, 1853.
The prospects for the growing crop of Com
are very gloomy. We have had six weeks of
drought, and if it should hold on much longer,
1 kuow nut what we shall do for bread uext
year.
Coleraine, N. C., Aug, 4,185U.
Our crops are ruined by the extreme drought.
We Imve hud uo rain for six weeks.
We have also been favored with the subjoined
extract from a letter from u planter of Prince
Williams’ Parish, dated, tlie Uth lust:
44 Many planters iu this vicinity nre com
plaining dreadfully of tho want of rain. Some
say their cotton, corn, mid every thing else is
burning up. It is at present very dry also
with me, but 1 have bceu in no want of rain,
but on the coutrury have bccu, until within ten
days, injured by tuo much of it. My provision
crops are very fine, my cotton although hurt by
tuo much rain, is visibly improving every day.
Our cottou crops generally were late iu coiuiiu
up,und whethergoud crops will be made, will
depend upon the lateness ofu Bust and uthur
unl'orseeucoutingeiicie’s.’”-C'Aar/M/on Courier
A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican
writing from Independence, Mo., speaks of the
crops us follows
Ou yesterday evening the heavens threaten
ed rain, and dtiriug the night we lmd one of the
old-fashioned sort, calculated to cheer the
hearts of many of our farmers. The lute com
will be much benefited, but all the early com
wilt he blasted. Our county may raise a hull
crop, if the reports of the funnels be true, but
I think we will have more than this, despite nl
tho complainings of many. Our wheat yield
ed very abundantly—is all well cured for, stack
ed and secured from the weather.
The oat crop will not ho ns large as wo ex
pected, hut this mutters but little, lu the ad
joining counties, soutli mid southeast, very in-
different |crops will be nude, except wheat,
whicli is pretty goud. The corn iu many places
has tasseled when the stalk was only two or
three feet high, and the shoots have uot form
ed in consequence of tho drought. Tho farm
ers in these counties, aud iu the lower purt of
this, (on tiie prairies) have determined to save
their straw mid cut large quantities of prairie
grans for their stock during the winter. In this
way, perhaps, they may uot sutler so much
from tlie scarcity of com as ouc would imag
ine, mid they can enjoy tlie luxury of eating
wheat bread the coming season.
Parisian Gossip on Spain
Tlio Presse has a curious aud somewhat per
fidious comparison betweeu Marshal O'DouucH's
recent meusuru for the disarmament of the
Spanish National Guard and one of his procla
mations, dutod just two yeurs buck, 1st of July
1854. lu this proclamation U’Donnell says:
“The moment is come when we must declare
what wo are resolvd to,do in tlie hour of victoy
We are determined upon tlie preservation of
tlie throne, but without the Comuriliu whicli is
its dishonour; we liuvc determined upou the
strict execution of all o .r fundamental laws,
improving especially those concerning lhu
press and likewise the electoral law,” uud then
alter a list ot the laws to be vigorously main
tained and ameliorated, conies the phrase,—
“Above ull ns the guarantee of all these rights
we uru resolved upou the solid establishment of
the general militia!” (tlie National Guard.)
The proclamation euds with the declaration
that the above being Marshal O’Dounels, rea
sons lor “drawing the sword,” ho will not
‘‘sheathe it untill the end he cntierly mid radi
cally attained l” Some persons may perhaps
think that there is no smull degree of naivete
in thus opposing a man’s words and deeds of
to day to wliMuwere his deeds and words two
years ago : niid they may wonder ut of those
wim thus compare. But thougli our times may
have accustomed us to see the same men acting
iu political life with what, iu privatu lift*, would
be culled levity, Inconsistency, uud dishonesty 1
even though we may imve accustomed our
solves toj’cgnrd politic-* us quite a field of ac
tion apart uud special iu whicli the expediency
of tlie moment is tlie only tliiug to ho consider
ed; still, in spite of all this, it is not u moral
thought for a nation to see,its rulers blowing hot
and cold at every moment, veering wish every
wind und swearing now by what not long ago
they cursed. This does not help the work of a
nation’s proper and sound political education.
Tlie Paps lias certain details upon some of
tlio present leading men in Spain which are not
without interest. “Out »r twelve captain-
f ;cunmls, commanding in the provinces, seven
tad been named by tlio exclusive iulluenre of
O’Donnell, then Minister of War; “four were
rocommomded by E*pmtorn,one of them upon
his most energetic insists nee.” This “one,” so
especially supported by Esnmtero, was Fulcmi,
who, as captain-general of Aragon, replaced
Gen. Gurrou. “Amongst the quite recent
nominations,” says tno 1’ays, “arc those of
Gon. Messina, as chief of the staff; Gen. Yriastc
as inspector-general of carbineers} mid Gen.
Paula Ruiz, as captain-generai of Galicia.
San Miguel hndbeen, onlyTow months ago
mad* a duke, nnd put in command over thu
halberdiers. He resigned his post when the
critical moment cmno.aml was instantaneously
replaced by General Conchy.”
Tlie Pays recoils tlio circumstance of Gen.
Ferro’s decree «r the mouth of May last (Gen.
Ferro was inspector general ortho militia and
head alcalde,) by which was effected tho forced
inscription of all tlie male inhabitants of Madrid
ill tho militia, t. e. all who lmd reached eighteen
years or ago, and lmd not passed sixty. “This
levy,” says tho imperialist journal, “brought
tho numbers or tho militia up to 30,1100 Tint
only 20,000 of whom were armed. It appears
that nlmut 10,000, hut 110 more, took part iu the
Mayor Stevens, or Buffalo, * week or two Hince, 1
wn* requested,by a vote in tho Common Couu- -
oil, to rcelgu his office, because bo bad announc
ed his intention to support Iho Fremont party
but In a message to the Board on Tuesday, ho
declines to comply with tho request.
_ Tho BL Louis Domocrot, Benton, oObra one

the person who inserted nt tlio head of the
Btato ticket, os it appeared in that paper in
their issue of the 3d Inst, the words, “Black
Republican Ticket.” Tlie Democrat advaentes

The Pennsylvania Fillmore Know Nothing
Convention closed it setting at Harrisburg, on
the 5th instant. After tlio Presidential elec
tors had been appointed u resolution was of
fered empowering the committee to till the va
cancy in tho Fourteenth district. Pending its
consideration tho following substitute was of
fered.
Resolved, That 110 committee-no mutterhy
whom appointed—except for death or resigna
tion, shall liuvo power to cliuuge tho Fillmore

The resolution was debuted at considerable
length, amid various motions to adjourn slue-
