\V'« perceive from the proceeding* of the stu
dent*' meeting in the University of Virginia,
that » »•<■/ efficient arm of Southern defence
| hu been brought into the service. Hunter C
Port, of Georgia wai elected President of the
j Young Men s Southern Rights Association of
j ihe University of Virginia. Twenty-five bun-I
' dred copies of an Address to the Young Men of;
tiis South were issued.
The Young Men of the country are, perhaps,
more interested in the cause of Southern Free
dom, than any otherclass. In the course of na
ture, upon them the duty of maintaining the
equality of the South will soon rest—if the
Government of the conntry degenerates into
oppression and tyranny, they will suffer and
writhe helplessly under it, unless they prepare
themselves betimes for resistance to Federal en
croachments. Every young man should weigh
his position well, and “see that the Uepuhlic
rccrives .no detriment" from his want of brave
ry and patriotism.
liostciDi —A difficulty occurred in Houston
county on Sunday last, between Mr. SMlTH,and
Mr. Benson, a wagoner from Marion countv
in which the latter was killed, and tiis son very
severely injured. It originated from drinking
iuo much whiskey.
CaLHous os Tilt Constitution.—The Secre

designs publishing, also, as near as possible, the
life aud Writings of the late Senator, in a ae

Censcs.—The census relurus show in the
cities named the following number of iuhabitauts
viz ; Savannah, June Ist, 1850—16,< 60, an
increase since 1845, of 3,202. Columbus- 5,942-
Griffin— 2,946.
Death or J. J. Auuubon.—This celebrated
naturalist died recently, at his residence in
New York, at the age of 76.
This celebrated man was the son of an
Admiral in the French navy, who took him to
France, where he received an accomplished ed.
ucation. lie returned to Louisiana, his birth
place, at the age of about seventeen years, and
entered upon his paternal estates. He early
manifested his fondness for natural history,
which he pursued through life with unabated
enthusiasm, and with a success that has made
him a world-wide reputation.
The life-like fidelity and beauty of his
delineation nf the Birds of America, placed
him in the first rank as an artist, whilst his mi
nute aecttracy in describing their habits, proves
him to have been the closest observer.
Thi Cat out.—The identity of the Fill
more party and the “Constitutional Union"
squib, we have never doubted, but facts can
now be cited of indisputable authority. The
Athens Banner, a Democratic Submission print,
has received the proposals for carry ing the mails
in Georgia ; the Athens Herald, a Whig South
ern Rights paper, complains of this favoritism ;
and a Whig Submission journal wipes ils mouth,
and says the President is determined to reward
the friends of the Union ! Millard Fillmore
is in full fellowship with the Constitutional Union
party Stick a pin, tin re, Southern men !
The Augusta Republic.—By ilie way, the
disposition in certain quarters, to crush the
Republic, is a most contemptible piece of
submission malignity. The South should be
proud of such able advocates as Mr. Start he,
and we love and know our own Georgia 100
well, to think that she will not reward his merit
bv a liberal support. Let the friends of the
South see that their journals are supported.

Mi msioth Cave in Indiana.—A great mam
moth cave has been discovered seven miles
north of Leavenworth, Indiana. A party of men
at first discovered a cavern or room large enough
for a man to enter, and derctermined to explore
it. They found that this room entered into
others, and these into still others, and that ap.
parontly there was no termination to the rave
They followed the main passage, some 4 or 5
miles, according to iheirhest calculations, when
they were admonished by their lights that they
must return. On their way back they visited
some of the rooms which they had passed, in
which they found large beds of Epsom salts in
nearly a pure state We are also informed that
the cave contains fine specimens of saltpetre,
plaster of Paris, alabaster, &o , of which the
party procured many fine specimens.
Dry Feet—We will give our readers a re
ceipt for making hoqts water proof, which is
worth more than our subscription price to any
person will try it. Moisture generally pen
etrates the soles of the hoots, the upper leather
not easily dried. To render the sole impervious
to water, order your boot-maker to cut pieces of
canvass in the proper shape, dip them in melted
pitch or tar, and lay them upon the inner soles
before putting on the outer soles of the hoots
This simple process will insure dry feet without
making tile boot clumsy. We have tried the
experiment, and would advise all whose sole*
are afflicted with cold or dampness, to do the
•amt.

day night last, when, on account of the heavy
rains, there was no performance ! Mr. Smyths
endeavors, in his paper of Thursday, to explain
the reason for his “fast” announcement, and
says .- “1 he handle of the press was being

Irish Charcoal from Peat.—The London
correspondent of the National Intelligencer, in
his letter of the 20th ult. snys : “We are glad
to find that the experiment of converting peat
into charcoal in Ireland continues to proceed
successfully. The charcoal thus prepared is said
tobo denser and better filled for the manufacture
of steel or irou than the best English wood char
coal. It is even asserted that iron manufactured
with this article is equal to the Swedish. This
charcoal is also very excellent for many other
purposes; for founder's uses and for the manufac.
ture of gunpowder. It can also be produced at
a little more than half the cost of wood charcoal.
Without taking into account the additional pto
duct which Mr. Owen by his patent can obtain
from peat, ifall these expectations be realized,
will not only prove a fine speculation for the pat.

O’ Tiie Chinese have a terrible modo of death
in their criminal code—that is to kill the culprit
by depriving him of sleep. Lately a scientific
gentleman made a communication to the Asiatic
Society of London on the subject. A Chinese
merchant, accused and convicted of having kill
ed his wife, was sentenced to die by the total
deprivation of sleep. The execution took place
at Amoy, in the month of June last. The con
demned was placed in prison under the surveil
mice of three guardians, who relieved each other
at every alternate hour, and who prevented him
from taking any sleep, night or day. He lived
thus for nineteen days, without having slept for
a single minute. At the commencement of the
eighth day, his sufferings were so cruel, that he
begged, as a great favor, that they would kill him
by strangulation.

44 You have noticed the new TnrifFproject.~
The attempt was to change the present revenue (

valuation, by greatly increased duties on Iron I
&c., and by making free of duty articles used ;
by the manufacturers—and all this in the form 1
of an ainendmeut to a little bill to fill up some I
deficienciences in past appropriations The at- j

man of tile Committee of the Whole, Mr.
Meade, ol Va , ruled it out of order, as incon
gruous with the object of the bill and his de
cision was sustained by 102 to 87—barely 15
majority. The protectionists had everything .
against them, decency, precedent, law and the \
whole force of the friends of a revenue tariff,
and jet they wi re beaten by on y 15 votes.—
Ami they were beaten only because the project
was too nanow to ge. iu all liieir interests. It
was a Pennsylvania scheme, and outraged the
New Englanders by propo.mg no increase of du
ties on Cot one. About a dozen of the latter
voted against it, ur rather voted in favor of me

not at all improbable that they will sold agree

the result, though the little time tiiej have left,
may prevent their carrying out their policy at
the present session If they lose all hope o 1
doing so, one great motive for keeping back the
slavery agitation will be lost. But they have
not yet given up the tariff project.

The cori espondence is copied by the National

One of their objects if staled to have been to
urge a recognition by our Government of the
Republic of Liberia. Mr. Webster received
them with the most gracious assurauces of his
sympathy with their objects, nnd then turned
them over to the President, who was equally
profuse in gracious professions.
As one strong ground for the recognition of
this so-called Republic, they slated “that Eng.
land alone now curries on a trade with Africa
that amounts to five millions iteiling, or nearly
twenty-live millions of dollars every yeur.”—
This statement covers an enormous falsehood
for if it means any thing pertinent to the matter
in hand, it means that this amount of trade
would be affected by the political relations of
Liberia. Now the whole exports of that coun
try iri 18-19 amounted to only $676,769, and her
whole imports to less than half a million. The
English trade here spoken of, is made up of
many branches, nnd tiie principal part of it is
carried on with Egypt and Morocco.
All these movements are from the impulse of
anti-slavery, nnd all have for their object to de
press, discourage and humiliate the South. Li
beria is to be a black Republic, under the pat
ronage, and for the exaltation and support of
Northern philanthropy. In three years the in
dependence of Liberia, nnd Hayti too, will be
acknowledged, and we shall have African Di

and entertaining Mio fashionable world ut their
residences in Washington. 1 uin informed, on

The correspondent of the Charleston Courier
writes, concerning anew draft on the Treasury
fir the benefit of the North, ns follows :
“A movement in the Senate by Dr. Gwin, of
California, is worthy of notice, in connection -
with the new interests springing upon the Pa.
cific const. He lias called, by a resolution,
which was adopted, for information and corres- 1
poiidence with British authorities, relative to
any proposition for the purchase by the U. S. of.
the Hudson's Bay possessions, and of their ‘pea.
scssory rights' in Oregon. A renewed move
ment on this subject may be expected. The
proposition of salecame from Sir George Simp,

but the Rrilish Government refused concurrence
in the project The U. S. Government neither
made ihe offer nor signified the wish to receive
one. Pi ivate individuals in the United Slates
entered into Die negotiation, will a view to
prevent profits, and an attempt was made with
out success, to induce the Seriate, in Executive
ses-i in, to pass a resolution recommending to
the Executive, a negotiation for the purchase
It is still alleged that if the United States will
take the initiative in a negotiation, the British
Government will accede to the withes of the
Hudson's Bay and Paget's Sound Companies.

doubt, approve of a purchase that will strength

Fromthe Mobile Register, Jan. 30.
The President nnd Dtrectorsof the Charleston
and Memphis Rail Road and the friends of lb„
enterprise have just held a meeting at Hunts
ville, to receive the report nf the experimental
survey, and to determine the location of the
route. Gov. Jones,Capt. Nich. Davis, Col, Mills
and Mr. Clapp, of Mies., made speeches. 'The
report of the Chief Engineer, C. F. M. Garnett,
gave the result ot the explorations, *he estimates
ot cos:, and tiie direct and im-idenlial advanta
ges of the road; representing, as such docu
ments always do, the enterprise in question to
be most practicable, important, economical and
desirable in the Union. Tne following is his
summary of the peculiar advantages of this
Road :
“There is no road nor chain of roads, in the
Uni ed fiia.es, 2Slj miles long, which runs
through such a fertile region. There are bu,
three Railroads in this Country which loose so
little distance over an air line, anu two of these
are lines connecting this, with the fiouth Atlan
tic coast. There is no line coiinec.ing the wa
leraol'lne Mississippi or Ohio with the Atlantic,
on winch sucli g'-uile grades are used. Tltere
are a few grades uear tne centre of this road, o,
53 feet per unle, no where else do they exceed
42 feet per mile N»r is this last rate exceeded
on toe lines connecting tins with Ciiurtealon or
fiavunuah,except a: tiie Plain at Amen in south
Carolina. And on the line connecting this with
the Chesapeake Bay, no grade Is used exceeding
68 feel per mile. This road, completed and iu!.
ly supplied with the cars and mo.ive power for
tne large trade expected, would exceed hut little,
a cost of 12,9(10 per mile. No oilier line between
the great Western Valley and the Atlantic will
cost less than four limes that sum. Lastly , tiiis
road is defended from all cuiupuliliuii, in a re
markable degree, by the peculiar features ol the
country, and this remark applies not only to this
road itself, hut to the entire system of roads
forming the nearest line from Memphis, through
all the large cities to Boston.
In conclusion, let us consider tha value of this
road fur national defence. By means of tiiis and
the lines connecting with it, Memphis will be
connected with the sca-bonrd, on the Chesa
peak Bay, at Charlestn, Savannah and -Mobile.
This system is worth more, for the defence of
the country, than all the furtificatiuns that could
be erected. These, together with tiie North,
eastern to the South-western extremes of the
United Slates, will save the Union if any thing
can accomplish that great end. If, liowev er, the
mad spirit of fanaticism should destroy our glo
rious Union, these roads are essential to the po
litical existence of the South.
Considerable difficulty was experienced in
in determining the exact location of the road
from Memphis to Chattanooga, in consequence
of the conflicting claims of the intervening lo
calities, each of which naturally wished the road
to pass through its own bailiwick. The direc
tors Anally agreed that the road should take fol
lowing rather zig-zag route: From Memphis
to La Grange, Tcnn., oil nn old grade construct
ed several year* ago ; from La Grange to Tu*.
cumbia; from Tuscumbiu to Decatur, taking the
line of the Tenncsseo Valley road ; from Decrtnr
to Huntsville; from lluulsville through Jackson
county to an intersection with the Nashville and
Chattanooga marl, on or near Crow Creek.—
The portion of the road from Memphis to La
Grange, will be pul under contract immediately,
and is to be finished in one year—them being
no legal impediment to its immediate construc
tion. The time of letting the contracts on the
rest nf the road will depend upon the rapidity
with which the remaining stock shall be taken
up. The President and Directors are sanguine
that this will be speedily done. By the charier
3,500,000 of stock must he sub cribed before the
road can bn put under cnntrnct. The amount
already subscribed is about two millions, leaving
a half million to be taken before the road can In
put under contract, nnd another half million fur
its entire completion."
The Commissioners' Court of Lauderdale
county in this State has subscribed $30,000 to
the Charleston and Memphis Railroad, provided
the road he located on the north side of the
Tennessee river, in that county. Madison coun
ty has subscribed SIOO,OOO unconditionally, to
the same enterprise, and the people of .Marshall
county, Mis*., have voted nearly unanimously
to contribute the same amount.— Mobile, (Ala )

Transfusion ofthe Blood We find in the
Courier des Etats-Uuis of the 23d ult., a curi
ous and interesting case which occurred in the
Hospital of Saint Louis, in Puris, lately, in
which the blood ufune person was transfused in.
to the veins of another, and the life ofthe rcci.
pient saved, or at least prolonged by the op
eration. The patient was a woman, and after
her accouchement a profuse and exhausting
hemorrhage followed. Her pulse had ceased to
beat for several minutes, and nothing mum than
a slight undiilutory shudderingcould be perceiv
ed from time to time. She was evidently dying
and as a last resort oT bis art, the surgeon, AI,
Nelaton,determined to try the effect transfusion
w ould have, which determination was soon car
ried out One of the attendants,M Dufour, vol
untarily offered to lose his blood in tho cause
humanity,and the required quantity being taken
from Ins arm, it was injected into n vein of the
pationt,'g head and passed immediately into ill,,
system. The blood was injected at about its
natural temperature. Tiie whole quantity was
roni thirteen to fourteen ounces. 'There were
two injections, the first of about eight ounces,
and after an interval of five minutes, five or six
ounces more. The woman revived imrnedialolv
and was doing well for a week after the opera,
tion, when alio was earned off by inflammation
of the bow els. The transfusion was considered
however, perfectly successful.
Within the last twenty-five years, there Itavo
been not loss than ten or twelve cases of trans
fusion in England and Germany, and ull have
been successful, the account says But, upon
the supposition that they have not all been, «til|
if a majority lias, it is encouraging enough to
justify lite experiment in desperate and in very
doubtful cases. It the blood of all healthy per
sons is physically and cheiniully the same, or
very nearly so, reason would seem to indicate,
that in cases where a deficiency in ihe quantity
of blood in the system is what makes the dan
ger, then an artificial supply would be a natural
remedy — Washington Globe.
