Judg ing by a glance at its contents, we should think this a more interesting number than any we have seen. It is late in making its appearance ; but this is caused by circum stances which were unavoidable, and the publishers assure us that, after the August number, the work shall appear promptly on the first of each month. After an exam ination of this number, we may say a few words more respecting it. Charleston —P. C.

It again comes to hand with out an engraving; but we have no doubt thepatronsofthe work will excuse this trifling omission, as the “Topographical Sketch” which was prepared to accompany it is pub lished. We give the editor’s excuse for the omission : “in our last we promised a Plate in this number, and we did so bona fide, nothing doubling that we should redeem the promise; and it is wiih deep regret and mortification that we fail to do so; of the cause of which failure we have a few words to say. “ When the first plate was published we made a con* tract with our Engravers for a second plate in June, and in May remitted one third of the stipulated price, promising to remit the remainder before the delivery of •he plate —which was to be on the 25th ultimo. After the issue of our June number, and just as we were on the eve of sending the. final remittance, we received word from the Engravers that nothing had been done ‘0 the plate, because the whole amount was not then received!! “We were taken by surprise, but it was then too late to remedy the evil, and in consequence we have no plate ready, although we have published the Typo graphical Sketch which was prepared to accompany it; and wc are compelled also to announce that no other plate can be issued in this volume, as it is entirely <oo late to make anew contract nnd have any work faithfully executed in season.” So soon as we can find time to peruse the number before us, wc will give our opinion of its contents. the “ savannah republican” Came to us yesterday in an entire new and beautiful dress.

We think from all we can learn, the Company are in considerable doubt whether it is best to put the Road from Modison to DeKalb “ imme diately under contract” or not. If they consult their own interest, they will not ex tend it another mile. The Stock is in all conscience low enough now; but the longer they make the Road the shorter will be the price of Stock. CT’l'he Chronicle and Sentinel is in ecstacy about his big “ squash.” It is not, he says, as large as some which have been heard of; but then it has a “ beautiful color” which is “ remarkable.” ‘Well, we have no doubt it is very pretty, and that friend Jones is tickled with his present; but if he is so delighted with a “ squash,” how would he feel if he should meet with our good for tune and be presented with four large “ rooster pies?” Think of that, Master Brook! don’t lend your paper.

We observe that a recommendation has been made by one of the Delegates to the great National Convention which nominated General Harrison and Mr. Tyler, that the surviving members of that Convention should re-assemble, in the same place, at as early a day as practicable, and “ by a solemn protest against the base treachery of the man who has been placed at the head of the Nation, endeavor to prevail upon him to vacate the office which he is now exercising with such deleterious influences upon all the best interests of the Countiy.” 07 s * Honorable James A.

The Paris (Illinois) Sentinel says, “ The chief workman in our office, being a Pres byterian minister, has gone to St. Louis, to attend a Synod, in consequence of which, our sheet is only half its size,” 07*What perspiring times these is! a<&urqim mib st m a <© st ir * TITLES. No people in the world boast so much of their equality as Americans; and yet, iu no other country is there half the struggle for social distinction, or half the envy and dis trust existing between the high and low. For with all our vaunted equality, we have extremes in the grades of distinction which divide the multitude as widely from each other, as in other countries the noble is se parated from the plebian. It is true vve have no standing titled orders, guarded by the factitious aid of government, whose honors, irrespective of merit, descend to a lineage of blood made noble by the “divine right of kirfgs.” We have no crowns or coronets, or stars or garters —and the path to wealth and honor is perhaps as equally open to all, as in this age of the world is practicable; still we have an aristocracy, and of course the inferior orders, until we come to the off-cast, who is courted before election, and afterwards kicked aside, until on a similar occasion; he is reinstated as one of the “sovereignty.” But however much a man may pride himself upon his elevation, the son of his obscure neighbor, will, in all probability, by personal energy and merit, attain a rank from which he will look down upon those who inherit his own name. Wealth and fame must in our country, be earned to be kept; and it is because personal exertion will secure those objects of life, which are so dearly prized, that we are all so eager in their pursuit. This republican (?) passion for distinction, is no where, except in a desire for wealth, seen so plainly, as in our fondness of titles : republican titles, of course, such as among equals raise one above another. We have multiplied these marks of distinction, until Colonels, Majors and ’Squires are as thick as fleas in Florida, and every aspiring youth who has arrived at the dignity of Mister, calls on the ladies, and owns a razor, considers himself the lawful expectant of one of these titles—at least Squire, and perhaps Colonel. But of all the prefixes which it is the misfortune of a man to have fastened to his name, we con sider ‘Squire, the most perfect mockery; and, speaking phrenologically, we should say that a man who is ambitious of this title, must have “ love of approbation very large,” and a most frightful “ depression” in the region of “ common sense.” Occasionally, perhaps, we may meet with an embryo law yer with less brains than vanity, who having read a few pages of “ Blackstone,” and at tended Court once br twice as a “ student of Law,” feels somewhat inflated on having his titular honor acknowledged by his ac quaintances as they accost him; but with these exceptions, this is a distinction, which human ambition, grovelling as it is, will scarcely stoop to attain. Such, however, is the rage for titles that a man who pretends to a decent character, and does not receive this title, especially on being addressed by letter, is as great an anomaly as a dog with out a tail. Os a “ Georgia Major” we hard ly know what to say. He is certainly a ve ry notorious personage, and his notoriety we consider quite unenviable. The “ Pica yune” has said, with more wit than truth, and not much of either, that in Georgia if a man kills a rattlesnake the exploit secures him a title of Major, and if he kills a thou sand, he becomes a General; but the mis fortune is, that all the applicant has to do in many cases, is, to signify’ his willingness to receive the title, and it is conferred viva voce. We have more honorary Majors than there are who hold commissions. These military dignitaries have been so much the subject of comment in different parts of the Union, and the source of so much merri ment, that from a respect we have for our State, we refrain from any further remark. Colonels are of some higher dignity. On parade, he is frequently the highest officer who is seen in his “ regimentals.” He has the command and speaks the word of author ity. He is the “ lion” of the muster-day. When we hear a stranger addressed as Colonel, we conclude he is a man of at least some respectability, and we are apt to ap proach him with more deference than if he had been addressed as plain Mister. We also usually find those gentlemen who have obtained this title by common consent, with out having held the office, possessed of dig nified mien and established reputation. A lady whose husband has this title, is ad dressed as Mrs. Colonel A., or Mrs. Colonel 8., and we believe the ladies consider it as a compliment, and are pleased with it; but should a lady whose husband glories in the title of ’Squire, or Major, be addressed as Mrs, ’Squire A., or Mrs. Major 8., the re sult would be a call from her husband for an “ explanation.” This, wc consider conclu sive ou the subject of the higher dignity of Colonel; but the abundance of any thing diminishes its value, and we have altogether too thick a sprinkling of Colonels in Geor gia, for them to sustain tbeirdignity. Their title passers with great currency, but still is very much depreciated We have some other thoughts on the sub ject of titles which we will offer at a future time. 07*Tho Virginia Banks have determined unanimously, in Convention, to resume specie payments on the 15th of September next. LATEST FROM ENGLAND. ARRIVAL OP THE ACADIA. Sixteen Days Later from Europe. The British Rsyal Mail steamship Acadia arrived at Boston Thursday morning, about 12 o’clock. Site left Liverpool on the sth, and brings both London and Liverpool pa pers to the morning of that day. During the first ten days the Acadia ex- Eerienced very rough weather, with strong ead winds. She passed one large iceberg. At a public meeting at Manchester, an address had been presented to Hon. Edward Everett, ambassador from the U. States. The accounts from all parts of the coun try respecting the prospects of the harvest, are of the most cheering character. The state of trade is about the same. The markets have a downward tendency in con sequence of the promising state of the crops, the easy rates of money, and the stagnation of business. The reports of Russian successes in Cir cassia are not confirmed. The difficulties in the Turkish provinces of Bosnia aud Servia appear to be quieted. The French claim to have gained some new successes in Algeria, but these succes ses, like those achieved by our own troops in Florida, do not always “stay” successful. The rich and beautiful American heiress, Miss Thorne, now at Paris, is about to be married to the Count de Pierre. Several shocks us an earthquake have re cently been felt in Morocco, and in the south of Spain and Portugal. • Meetings of the shop-keepers of Man chester, Wolverhampton, Leicester, and other large towns, have been held to con sider the prevailing distress. The extensive firm of Messrs. Hay and Ogilvie, merchants and bankers of Lerwick, have suspended payment. Upwards of thirty persons, of a fishing party, were drownded near Bangor, Wales, on the 24tb, under circumstances which ren dered the calamity in the highest degree afflictive. The troubles in Ireland still continue, without any prospect of remedial justice or satisfaction.—Even the prospect of an abun dant harvest does not appear to allay the murmurs of discontent. Twenty houses and a quantity of valua ble property were burnt and damaged at Rotberite some time since. Six sail of line-of-battle ships had been put in commission by the British govern ment, in addition to those already in service, and it was supposed they were destined for China. * More than five thousand operatives were out of employ in the mining districts of Truro, and about an equal number of wo men and boys whose service had been con nected with mining operations. The dis tress among them was unparalleled. Latest accounts ftom Spain speak of re newed difficulties in the formation of anew Cabinet. In the mean time the public bu siness issuffering, the public treasury empty, confidence lost, and the laws openly defied. The crops and the vintage, however, give promise of an abundant harvest in most of the provinces. The ratification of the long pending trea ties between Great Britain and Texas were exchanged on the 27th, by the Earl of Aber deen, plenipotentiary of Great Britain, aud the Hon. A. Smith, plenipotenti try of Texas. London, July sth, 1342. Rumors are rife in London of dissensions amongthe Conservative party, and that there is even a serious difference of opinion in the Cabinet arising out of the Poor Law Bill, and certain of Sir Robert’s propositions in the House of Commons. A serious breach is reported to exist be tween the right honorable baronet at the head of the government, and the noble lord who presides over the Colonial department. This has been more than suspected for some time ; and recent circumstances seem to il lustrate and strengthen the fact of its exis tence. The manner in which Lord Stan ley Was put down by Sir Robert Peel in the House of Commons, in the act of rising to speak on an important question, with his papers arranged, and his notes prepared for a set speech, made a strong impression on the House. The Premier was of course submitted to : but the effect upon the Colo nial Secretary was manifest. The indignity was too marked to be forgotten or forgiven. The British Parliament is at present oc cupied with a discussion on the appalling and increasing distress throughout the coun try, Mr. Wallace having on Friday moved as an amendment to the order of the day, for going into a committee of supply, a series of resolutions to the effect that parliament should not be prorogued without an inquiry being instituted as to the extent of the dis tress and the best means calculated to afford, relief. Latest accounts from Batavia speak in frightful terms of the effects of the late earth quakes in the islands of Sumatra and Java. ‘These earthquakes were caused by anew eruption of the volcano of Gonnong Gon tour, the highest in Java, which covered the rich country around it with ashes and lava, and entirely destroying some of the finest coffee plantations of the island.—Many lives were also lost. The house of S. Oppenheim & Co'., a Hamburg firm, connected with the Man chester trade, and formerly of very high standing, has just stopped payment. Some insurrectionary movements at Fi gueiras (Catalenia) and Bafcolonia had been suppressed. Others were apprehended at St. Sebastian and Tolosa. The south and west of Franco had suffer ed much from extreme drought. At the last accounts, one or two mild rains, extend ing over most of the parched districts, had served to allay the fears of the inhabitants of the total annihilation of the crops; but the injury done was in a measure past remedy, and want and deptivation must of course be felt by the poorer classes. The tribunal of Bilboa bad passed judg ment on several iudividuals concerned in the insurrection of list October; twenty are sentenced to death, and twelvo to the gal leys. There is much fermentation in Wallacia. Arms and ammunition have been landed from the Danube, and bands of brigands overrun the country—nay, make incursions towards Widdin. There have been several more failures at Manchester, and very little confidence is now felt, even in those which have been considered the strongest houses. Pardon so Francis—Another attach up on the Queen. —The couvict Francis, who fired at the Queen, has been reprieved. There does exist a doubt that the pistol was loaded with a destructive substance. He still asset ts that he had not intended to in jure her Majesty, but did it with a view to get provided with a home for life similar to that of Oxford. He will be transpoited for life to a penal settlement. The announcement of his reprieve bad scarcely been made known wheti the public were alarmed by a report that another and exactly similar attempt had been made up on her- Majesty’s life. The details are al most too farcical for notice. It appears that as the royal cortege was returning on Sun day from the Chapel Royal, in St. James’ to Buckingham’s Palace, a deformed youth presented and snapped an old rusty pistol at the carriage in which her Majesty was seated. He was seized by another youth who wrested the weapon from his hand, but the policeman in attendance refused to take him in charge, believing it to be a hoax, on which he was permitted to escape. He was apprehended m the course of the day, when it was discovered that he had recently and repeatedly been heard to say that he ad mired the conduct of Francis, and regretted that he had not succeeded in his attempt; that Francis was a brave fellow, and he wished he had been in Francis’s place, for he would do for the Queen; that he had a prime air-gun and pistol, and he would use them in the same cause. The pistol had an old flint, lock with a screw and rifle barrel. Upon detaching the barrel, which was done with some difficulty, from the screw having become exceedingly rusty, owing to its long disuse, there were found in it a portion of very coarse powder, a piece of tobacco-pipe, and some paper wadding. His motive is supposed to be the same as that of Francis. The Overland Mail—lndia and China. — The Indian mail arrived at Marseilleson the 29th of June. The following telegraphic despatch reached London on Friday:—Gen eral Pollock bad joined Sir It. Sale at Jel lalabad, re-establishing on his march the authority of Thomas Khan Sullpoora. He was to march on Cabul as soon as he was joined by Colonel Boulton. General Eng land had re-united troops, forced the passes and joined General Nott at Candahar. Cap tain M’Kenzie had arrived at Jellalabad, with offers from Akbar Khan, release his prisoners on conditions. The answer was not known. General Elphiustone died on the 23d of April. The accounts from China arc interesting. On the 18th of March, the Chinese, 10,000 or 12,000 strong, tried to retake Ningpo, while another force attacked Chiughae. In both instances they were repulsed with con siderable los3. It was remarked that all the Chinese sol diers left dead at Ningpo and Chiughae had a few dollars about them. It is supposed from this that a gratuity was issued to them immediately before they attacked the city, in order to induce them to advance. It is said that the Emperor has ordered that the provinces which are the seat of war shall defray the whole of its expenses. We may conclude, therefore, that the Cabinet of Pe kin do not conceive it necessary to make a great national effort against their foes. The inhabitants of the invaded provinces are naturally disinclined to bear the whole of the heavy pecuniary charges ne cessary for carrying on hostilities. The consequence is that the Chinese army to the south of the Hangchow river is in want of pay and destitute of supplies, from which cause the troops were in such a state of in subordination that it was expected they would shortly disband themselves. The death of Shah Sonjah, is nlso con firmed; he fell by the baud of ZemaunKhan, brother of Dost Hohammed. The most satisfactory intelligence had been received of the Cabul prisoners. Capt. M’Kensie, one of their number had been permitted by Akhbur Khan to visit the camp at Jelalla bad on parole, as the bearer of despatches from Major Potlinger, and to treat for the ransom of his companions. He brought news of the death of Gen. Elphinstone on the 23d of April. The other prisoners were doing well, and had been treated with kind ness. An enormous sum is demanded for their ransom. Sir Henry Potlinger continued at Macao. The destruction of the garrison Ghuznee is confirmed. Colonel Palmer left the cita del on the 26th of March, and took up his quarters in a portion of the town. There, as in the case of Cabul, the Ghaznces, ap parently without orders, attacked the troops, and a frightful slaughter ensued. The lead er of the insurgents, Shumshoodeen, inter fered, and took the officers under his pro tection, and they are described as now liv ing as prisoners in the citadel. About 100 only of the Sepoys are supposed to have es caped. A letter from Bombay states that all the British prisoners taken at Ghuznee had been put to the sword. Other letters of a later date, however make no mention of the circumstance. Hungary.— The Augsburg Gazette states that on the 9th of June a disturbance of a serious nature broke out in the city of Pesth, in Hungary, occasioned by the discontent of the journeymen tailors respecting a differ ence with their masters of the corporation in the matter of a savings’ bank. Sixteen hundred of these men refused to work, and marched in a body out of the town. Some cavplry was sent against them, and forty were brought in as prisoners. Immediately an attempt at rescue was made by the jour neymen and populace. The town house, which contains the prison, was attacked-*-its windows demolished—and the lights in the streets destroyed. The military were oblig ed to act, and many were wounded on both sides. The next day 3,000 shoemakers had threatened to join the tailors, and much ap prehension was entertained for the tranquili ty of the town. The riots continued on thellfb, and were only appeased by the magistrates consent ing to the release of the prisoners, except ing three, however. According to the Lcip sic Gazette, about thirty persons have been maimed or wounded in this disturbance.
