Look out for the Abolitionist!! Recent development* go to show that there is an unusual number of the abolition gentry prowling about the Southern route try. at the present time. The followin’ items should be read and pondered. has The Columbus Sun save, that one Charles H. Bray, who hails from Boston, was arrested in Mobile on the 2tth ult., by one of the police, whilst talking to Fremont, tree negroes, and favorable to the Harper's Ferry move, and other matters of that stripe, in a way not suited to a Southern latitude. He was taken before the Mayor, | who decided him to be a dangerous charac ter, and thought a colder climate would bast accord with his views. Brav was or dered to give bond of SSOO, or leave. The public would do well to be on the lookout for him. and keep him moving Northward. BTTbc Wilmington Journal says: We learn that a uian who had been in George town, S. C., during a good part of the last Summer on the plea of ill health, left last Friday it being intimated to him that it might save trouble to the community and danger to himself. He was a man of fine personal appearance, remarkably intelligent, and of gentlemanly manners ami address. Circumstances left no doubt of his charac ter as an emissary of those opposed to the institutions of the community,in which he was a sojourner. The Harper’s Ferry affair has aroused Southern vigilance, and Hie bus iness of emissaries will be fouud “extra haz ardous.” A writer to the Pee Dee Time*, whose at tention has been attracted by the publica tion of one of the letters found in Bronx's carjiet bag, addressed to Aloxzo G. Brad ley, communicates the followinging to that paper: Some time in Joly or August last, an in dividual who subscribed his name J. W. Brad ley. made his appearance in our town and took up his abode at one of our hotels. He said be bad been a practicing lawyer in New York, and had come to Georgetown for his health, where he intended to remain six montlis, and had no objections, during this period, to engage in teaching, or in the more arduous laliors of his profession. He ap plied for a situation as teacher to one or two gentlemen, and perhaps proposed a law copartnership with other*. He was without any letters of recomendation when he ar rived, and afterwards obtained only one such letter from a man m New York. He, of coarse, procured no situation. During his stay here he amused himselt by seeking information in a general way about the pop ulation, habits, Ac., of the district and its citizen*. He had cotne, he said, by the ad vice of his physician to remain six months, and intended to do so—at all events he would stay until the Charleston Convention. He was a devout attendant at church Ac. So matters stood until the report of the Har per's Ferry difiicuity became public here. • * * * * The accounts which reached our town on Saturday morning stated, in a reference’ to the Harper’s Ferry affair, that sundry let ters and documents had been found among the papers of the insurgents, and oar pereg rinating attorney took French leave of the place on Saturday eveurng without footing his bill at his bote!. May not, therefore. Alonzo G. Bradley be J. W. Bradley (?) the abolitionist to whom the inclosed letter is ad dressed ? And if so, does it not stand us in band to welcome all such strangers hereaf ter to “hospitable graves?” There is little doubt among the citizens that this fellow was an emissary in our midst. But as usu al, we have waked up too late. Is it not a warning to keep ever ready and on the watch tower—with our senses about us and our powder dry ? Bradley is a tall, spare built man, complexion rather florid, with sharp icatures—what is usually called “hatchet lace”—dresses very common, and wore while here a rather comical old white hat He lef: for the N.

The news from Brownsville, Tex as. which we publish to-riay, is of a most extraordinary character. For three or four weeks succeeding their first murderous and depredatory at tack u]on Brownsville, Cos rt in as’ robber band had liecu menacing the place. At length, worn out by con stant vigilance and alarm, and hav ing received assistance from Mexico —learning, moreover, that recruits forCortinas were on the way, whom it was important to cut off—the citi zens of Brownsville sallied out to at tack the beleaguering banditti. They fell into an ambuscade and were de feated, retreating into the town again, which Cortina* was at the last accounts more closely investing. The citizens of Brownsville had sent a most urgent appeal to New Orleans for prompt assistance, and we are glad to learn from the pa-1 per*of that city that the men and transportation for them were secur ed on theTth in*t.,all that was then wanting being provision*?for the ex- j pedition, which were no doubt soon contributed. We have therefore ev- i cry reason to hope that either from the Texas Hangers understood to he j on their way, or from the New Or- 1 leansrecru ts, aid will reach Browns- j villc in time to rej*eal the assailants. But how are we to account for the strange apathy and neglect of the Administration in this ease ? Mexi can assistance was promptly given j to our citizen* in the first conflict, and has been continued to the pres- • ent time ; hut no Federal force had started for the *cne of action at the timeof the la>t fight, though several weeks had cla|*cd since the invasion of Brownsville and the murder of its people. Had intbrination Ikcii sent to Washington that a -quad of “fili busters’* were collecting at Browns ville, though they molested not the j*ersous or property of any of our citizens, the flight of lightning dis patches would have been deem too slow to order the nearest Govern ment troops to repair to the locality and arre-t the expedition. But week after week the Administration has turned a deaf year to the ap|*eals of suffering and Iteleaguered South ern citizens for protection, ami they are obliged to look for foreign and private assistance ia repelling the attacks of robbers and cut-throats. We have heard a g**od deal lately about dissolving the Union in case a Black Republican Administration i* elected ; hut we think a much more pertinent and practical query is, fan the South endure another Northern Democratic Administra tion ? Mould even Seward have neglected the protection of the South as culjwibly as But-hanan has done ? I Cos/.

W illiaui 11. Mil***. We ha<l the pleasure of listening to the *iceeli of Mr. Stile.*, in the Hall of Representative*, on Thurs day evening the 10th is*st. The ball was crowded at an early hours, and all listened with marked attention fur one hour anti a half. The main object of the speaker was to point out the duty of the South in the Presidential campaign of ISSO, to expose the fallacy in the reasoning, and the defection of.Senator Douglas, and to show the inconsistency of Mr. Toombs in the assertion that he would sooner support Mr. Douglas, if nominated by the Charleston Con vention, than any one the Opposi tion might select. His remarks, were severe on both these gentle men. The exposition of the doctrine of squatter sovereignty, as recently set | forth in the widely circulated maga , zinc of the Harpers’, occupied the greater portion of the time. The article in the magazine had three fallacies, said Mr. S. Ist. That the ! condition of the people in the Terri j tories previous to the formation of a Territorial government, is like j that of the jteople of the colonies pre -1 vious to the Revolution. 2d. That ; the government of the United States 1 stands in the same relation to the i Territories as the government of i Great Britain towards the colonies. 2d. That the struggle in each case was for the same end—namely : The establishment of a local self govern ment. The manner in which the South hud been chrated and betray ed by the Kansas Nebraska bill, in troduced by Senator Douglas, which hill aloiishcd the Missouri restric tion, was severely commented on. In conclusion the comparison was made between tlie doctrine ofWm. H. Seward, who sought to disposers the jH*ople of the South of their rights in the Territories by the en actments of Congress, and those of Mr Douglas, who sought the accom plishment of the same end through the agency of the Territorial L m latures. Mr. Seward was like ; e highway robber, who met you in the road, and if he succeeded in overpow ering you, took away from you your property; while Mr. Douglas was like the keeper of some house that formerly was to he found in the re mote west, who, by a sign-ltoard, en ticed you in and at midnight, when sunk to unconscious slum I hi-, plung ed the poignard to your heart and then securely took away your pro perty. Which was the preferable of i the two ? If onr rights were sub mitted to Congress there was some chance of success, since those who sat in Judgment on them were American citizen-, and a large por tion of them from Southern States. But wliat chance of success had the 1 South in the other instance, when the Territorial legislatures were composed principally of representa tives of foreigners which the Emi grant Aid Societies had sent to those territories, in many ease* after only a month’s sojourn in America. For his part, if the Union must he dissolved by the election ot Win. H. Seward, he would rather see it go down like some noble ship, the flag of which, being the last thing seen should unmistakable evidence that j it was unpolluted. During the delivery of the speech there was much applause manifest ed, particularly when Mr. S. pro pounded the proposition that the South would never submit to the supj**rt of Stephen A. Douglas. Mr. S. gave intimation, in the conclusion, that there was one that might be brought forward whom the South won hi In* proud to support, who needed no other platform to reecom meiid him than hi* own sjtotle** in tegrity, and the Conetitntion of hi* country ; while Douglas would nev be supported, even if nominated, on so high a platform that hi- diminu tive form would reach the skies.

Mr. Douglas’ .\e Hook. Mr. Douglas ha‘. written a rvply to Judge Black’s strictures upon his Harter article. We have not and we do not intend to read it. He and his doctrine? are both dead, at least in lie* South. The feaiful commenta ry of the Harper s Ferry invasion throws a !;ght upon hi* faLe policy, that no logic | e >ald shed. If the Southern people in the State? need protection to their institutions from the aggressions of abolitionists, how much more must they need it in our territo ries? S ipjiose that it had been the law in Virginia that no protection to the slavehol der* should be afforded by the Government I of Virginia, or of the Federal Government, what would have been the result of the late • daring enterprise to produce insurrection? Senator D ugla-*, by his false doctrines of squatter sovereignty, would have our terri tories placed precisely in this position. How admirably it will further abolition designs and p > ry must be most apparent. Let the General Government be denied the power to protect the slaveholder in our territories, and let the territorial Legislatures, by un friendly legislation, or no leg station at all, put him at the mercy of such wretches as Browx and Cook, and how speedily would slavery crushed out o:’ a territory f The Harper’s Ferry emeuie lifts the thin veil he had woven over lit* policy, and shows it to he quite worthy of Seward or Greeley —a naked expedient lor abolitionizmg all of onr territories. The South, we are satisfied, will neither hear nor care any more about Sena tor Douglas’ abolition sophistries; she will assert her rights at the next Presidential election, and Senator Douglas can go off, if h pleases, to Senator Seward. The tact is, i is of no consequence to the South how any men or party in the North shall act in the next Pre-idemia! election. The more they are against the rights of the South, probably the better.— Charleston Mercury. Daring Attempt to Run off Slaves. — The Pedlars. —Since the Harper’s Ferry invasion the country people of Virginia and Maryland have been very prompt in ordering Northern pedlars out of the States. A few days since suspicion rested on a Dr. Boyd, who has been for some time pi idiing French goods, in Maryland, and on !ii> last visit, to Westminis ter, Md., his cargo was inspected.— The Washington Star says : His attention was “ailed to the fact that a shoe was mis-ing from ! one of his horses, and while he had jouuMvith the horses, to a blacksmith shop the opportunity was taken to l inspect his team. Amongst his traps was noticed an oblong box, i with some suspicious holes bored in ! the cover. Boyd, seeing that an inspection was goiug on, came from the blacksmith shop iu a hurry, ’ and assured the searchers that the Ihx contained nothing hut “French ifoods.” They choose to look for themselves, aud ripping off the oov- I er, lo ! there were enseonsed a negro , inai; ami his wife, with provisions, j clothing, etc., all things, necessary to enable the darkies to‘keep house’ ; until they reached the other side of Mason and Dixon’s line. The box was large enough to enable them to turn in it, i-ut not to sit up. Neither >f these slaves are the property, as stated of Clark Mills, hut the wo man !elongs to a Mr. Howell, who rents a place of Mr. Mills. Mrs. Howell, of Washington, went before Justice Goddard this morning, and testified that she had visited the Westminister jail, and recognized the negro woman there, (who wa* found Ktxed up as above described) as he • servant. The District Attor ney a a* consulted and he gave order fora requisition to be forwarded to the Governor of Maryland for the de livery of Boyd to the authorities j here for trial. Pickpocket Ai’rcMted. The Augusta Chronicle k Sentinel of Wed nesday says, that Officers Ramsey and King -tieceeded, yesterday afternoon, in arresting two out of tour pickpockets, who took up their quarters in this city on Friday last, at the Burke House, rtgi-tenng their names as Samuel Burns and Thos. Connally from Atlanta, and Cha. Thompson and Edward Stone from Wilmington, N. C. They are doubtles the same, or a part of the same trang, who were so successful in their oper ations at Atlanta during the Fair. One of them was detected in the pursuit of his thievish trade at the Circus yesterday afternoon, and was pointed out to the offi cers by a gentleman upon whom he had made an attempt the night previous. lie made a speedy attempt to escape, as soon a* he ob-erved the officers in pursuit, but was arrested near the Waynesboro Depot, and committed to jaiL His name was not as certained. Officer Ramsey subsequently repaired a -sone to the B uke House, where it was as certained they were stepping, having in his ha'.il a loaded guncane which he had taken from trie one arrested at the Circus, and with Mi Bi L. the proprietor ot the house, com menced a s-arch of the bsugage of the sus pected parti'**, when one of them entered the room and demanded to know their bus ;ne *. Ramsey immediate y made an at tempt to arr-t him. the p'ekpocket denying his authority and showing signs of resistance. During the li'gh words and scuffling w hich ensued, the pickpocket seized the cane, w hich had be u find upon a table, and dis euarged it at Mr. Ramsey, the ball passing through the fleshy part of his tbign, and in ti eting a severe it cot dangerous wound.— He was. however, overpowered and arrest ed, and committed tojiil. giving his name as Johnson. The other two pickpockets, who arrived in company with the two arrested, have probably made their escape, as they were not seen after dark iast evening. There is a popular notion, says Dr. Nich ols, that an li:slman cau drink whiskey. It i* an utter fallacy. - A Scotchman will drink them blind. A Yankee will drink them into conniptions. Irishmen are great and unequaled in many things; but whis key drinking is not of their accomplish ments, Whenever they attempt it they are sure to be beaten. Invariably they get the worst of it Why will they persist in at tempting to do wliat nature has defied them the power to excel in ? I insist that an Irishman ts the last man who ought to drink whiskey. The English swallow 32,000 000 gallons of spirits a year, and wash them down with oceans of hale, “all-and-alf,” or porter. Tne Irish, even with the help of their Scotch -descended cousiqs of Ulster, are barely able to worry down 8,000,000 gallons. GEORGIA CITIZEN. I*. F. W. ANDREWS, Editor. MACON, GA,, NOVEMBER 18, ’59.

It i notorious, that for naarly a month past, the Central Railroad lias been blocked up and unable to furnish transportation to carry forward the cotton crop from this place and points beyond. Notwithstanding its large numbers of Locomotives, cars, &e., with efficient and accommodating o ffieers, it is obvious that one Road cannot do the im mense and increasing business that is flow ing towards the seaboard from the interior, and which will go on augmenting yearly, as Railroads are extended through this State, Alabama, Tennessee and Mississippi. At th is place, the depot gates are closed against cotton shippers nearly half of each week, and the same complaints come from othej points, and what is the ett’eet ? “Why in the lace of sevaral advances in price from Eu rope amounting to nearly Two Dollars a bale, prices are barely maintained in the in terior towns, for the reason the cotton can not be got forward promptly to market, and it is not only the cotton planter that suffers every other department of trade is more or less aftected.

Bid well, Esq., of New York, takes the first rank in the Magazine publi cations of the age. It embraces all the beet articles of the English tluarterlies and other periodicals of that country, and is gotten up in a very attractive style—one elegant en graving and sometimes two appearing in each Monthly Number. The publisher has just purchased, at a c>*t of $1,200 of Mr. Sartain. the artist, two beautiful steel engravings for parlor orna ments, entitled, respectively : “Filial Af fection—Sunday Morning’’ and “ Home Scene—Returning from Market,” 22 by 14 inches, with margin for framing. He pro poses to present one of these to every new subscriber to the Eclectic. We have been favored by Mr. Daniel E. Paris, the business agent of the “Eeleetic” with a cop}’ of each of those splendid En gravings, whieh we will be happy to show to any of our friends who wish to see them. Mr. P. is sojourning a few days at the La nier House, where he will receive subscrip tions for the next year’s volume of the work. The Eclectic is published on the Ist of every month—each No. containing 144 largo octavo pages at $5 per annum. I*nlli’ Execulions. Tiik Legislature. —ln the House on the 15th, quite a spicy debate, sprung up on the motion of Mr. Lewis of Greene, to übol i>h the public execution of criminals con demned to death, aud to provide for their execution in private. The honorable mem ber from Greene remarked, that so fur as the public press represented public opinion it was unanimous in favor of the change from public to private executions. We protest against being included in the list of Jour* nalisU who are in favor of the change pro posed. On the contrary, we have contend ed, time and again, that if the odious and abominable principle of “capital punish ment’’ is retained in the statute books of this professedly t’kri.-tian Commonwealth, all the benefits supposed to arise from the example of such tragedies to the evil door should be preserved intact. In other words, the advocates of legal hanging profe.s* to believe that such penalties deter men from the commission of crime—that the sight of a fellow-mortal dangling between beaver, and earth, and being throttled in to eternity, is salutary and promotive of good morals ! This is the chief argument, if not the ODly one, in favor of the penal infliction f death. Now. why destroy this benignant feature of the sjiectacle by having executions done in private, where no one can witness it, except the Officers of the law ! Mr. Lewis said, truly, that “such ex hibitions were vitiating to public taste — vitiating to public moruls and did notact as a preventive of crime.” Let him go then for abolishing capital punishment, altogeth er, as after that admission, every Christian sentiment forbids that our laws shall be re vengeful and not reformatory. Mr. Deloney of Clurke replied to Mr. Lewis, and said that “all the acts of our Judiciary should he public. It was a horri ble idea to him, that a man should be chok ed off'in private. If a man is to be execut ed. let it be done publicly, he wanted no Bastile in Georgia. All the arguments of the gentleman proved that hanging un der any circumstances, was demoralizing.” Several other gentlemen spoke in favor and against the bill, and after some amend* meals, was Anally carried by yeas 88, nays 00! This is, perhaps, as much as could be exjiected, at this vinae, hut we doubt not, that as the public sense revolts, more and more, against public executions, it will not be satisfied with feeling and knowing that the dark deed of retaliatory and vindictive legal murder, is still a part and parcel of the secret criminal code of our enlightened and professedly Christian ]>eople ! The next demand will be the abolition of the Death Penalty xnd the substitution there for of confinement for life, at hard labor.

It compri zes statuary, views of Italy and other foreign countries, and a variety of Miscellaneous sub jects, besides prominent scenes in America such as Niagara Falls, moving Panoramas of Broadway, N. Y., Ac., Ac. For 50 cts, one can thus get valuable and pleasing in formation of far famed objects of curiosity of all lands, which it would take months and years to acquire, in any other way. Hr. Damour'* Project.—-We cheerfully give place to Mr. Damour’s Card, in reference to the establishment ot a Daily Paper in Macon, and sincerely hope that the Merchants and business men will at once respond, liberally, to the call he has made upon them. According to the Keport of the Comptroller General, of the State, Ma con ranks only the fifth in Taxable “prop erty returned to that Office, hut she is the third, in point of Commercial importance, location and business facilities, and ought to have, at least, two Daily Papers, to keep up with her neighbors in the march of improve ment. For ourself, we give way to Mr. Da mour, or any one else disposed to try the experiment, and will do all we can to pro mote the enterprize. Evening Express.—Wo welcome a new Daily of this title, from Savannah, to our Exchange table—Spencer A Estill, Pro prietors—Ambrose Spencer Editor. It is a neat Journal and promises well.

The Louis ville Democrat thus speaks of the Paint ing ; The Bunyan Tableaux at Mozart Hall. — Among the different amusements now open to the public, none hold a more conspicuous place than this splendid series of paintings in panoramic view. All the principle scenes of BuDyan's “Wonderful Dream” are delineated with marked fidelity to the orig inal in the highest style of Art. Those of our citizens who have not as yet seen this noble achievement of American genius should not fail to do so during its brief stay in Louisville. The -Tlaguetie Telegraph. The Line between Macon and Milledge ville, has been completed, and several mes sages have been transmitted backwards and forwards.

Dick & Fitzgerald, No. IS Ann Street, New York. Fire Department. At the hour of midnight on Tuesday night, the fire bells were sounded in conse quence of the taking fir* of a small wooden building, on 4th street, half a square be yond the Brown House. I sprang out of bed and jumped into mv clothes with my usual speed, and after going direct to the lire as fast as I could run from my residence, on the same street, I found every Company with their operators, and our worthy Chief and his assistant on the ground, and one of the Engineers at work, and the others in a moment after were at work. The lire was put out immediately, without damage to the many close adjoining buildings. Now this is nothing unusual for our Fire Department; but whon it is recollected that this is the first fire in about six months, and coming at that hour of the night when every on<* is suppos ed to be in their warm and comfortable beds; it speaks volumes for the efficiency of the Macon Fire Department. So thinks your CORRESPONDENT. Removal of tin* Capitol. MiLLEIXiKVILLK, Nov. ltth 1859. Mr. Editor: The present Legislature af fords the best opportunity for the removal of the seat of Government to Macon, of any session that has ever prececded it. The ac commodations here are very imperfect, so much so that complaints are tnade on every side. If your citizens are alive to their in terest, they will at once exert an active in fluence in the subject of removal. The members and the visiting public have be come convinced that Milledgeville is not the proper place for the seat of Government of Georgia, and I believe, I speak knowingl y, when I say the Legislature are ripe for ti le question, for instead of improvements, in tl .e way of accommodations, they grow misem bly worse. It is believed that the friend s of Atlanta will not interfere to defeat thi s’ desirable end, but will lend her influence for removal to Macon. The present Stati’ House is, and always will be, a dead expense to the State, and the sooner a large and commodious Capitol, and one worthy of the State is built, the better it will be for the State and her citizens. SOJOURNER, at the Capital. Our New York Correspondence. ArS Worksat the ft civ York Fair. The Annual Fair of the American institute till continue! to tbo close to attract a large S’ nuiubei of I'tir citizens,and many visitors if un the country. Added to the diver-ilied illus trations of the Mechanical and the Elegant Arts, the visitors themselves constituted no uninteresting exhibition ; and the student of human nature —when he had finished his in spection of huge pumpkins, and the almost infinite variety of dahlias —when he had fair ly looked the needles of the unnumbered sewing machines out ot place, and the fair at tendants out of countenance —he might prose cute his favorite study in a more general way, with the living,moving, speaking, and clbow inq examples before him, and perchance be hind him. At a Fair there is of necessity a very gen eral and indiscriminate commingling of hu man elements, without any regard to pre cise form and useless ceremony. Moreover, as the managers on the recent occasion did not coniine themselves by any very rigid rules of classification—in the arrangement of articles on exhibition—we may imitate them in our mode of treating the subject, on ly stopping here and there to notice such things particularly as may seem most worthy to engage our special attention. Illustration's os’ Photographic Art.— It is now a little more than half a century since the distinguished chemist, Sir Hum phrey Davy, and a Mr. Woodworth, sug gested the use of nitrate of silver in copying pictures on glass. But there were no results obtained, calculated to command general at tention, until Daguerre made his discovery of the process whereby images from the lens of the camera obscura are reflected uppn the chemically-prepared surfaces of metalic plates This surprising discovery of the French Ar tist—who thus made his pencil of the sun beams—attracted general attention ; and the new field, that opened alike before the true lovers of Art, and the mere fortune-seeker, was soon occupied by a multitude of ex perimenters, only a few of-whom have either achieved a decided success, or established a permanent reputation. Mr. J. Gurnet, who has recently opened anew Gallery of Photographic Art at 707 Bread way. was among the earliest, as he has ever been among the most successful, opera tors in this country. As early as the year 1840 ho established himself in this city. At that time the Art was but very imperfectly understood ; and now. among all who were with Mr. Gurtiev when he commenced his explorations in this new and interesting field of scientific inquiry and artistic achievements, he ahne remains. Moreover, since the ad vent of Mr. G., hundreds have attempted— by some short method—to acquire distinc tion ; but, one after another, they have dis appeared, leaving no memorial, and even their names are blotted out from the book of our remembrance. To accomplish any important results in such a field, at once requires patient study, delicate manipulation, and, withal, a natu ral capacity for artistic discrimination, which comparatively few possess, in a degree that insures a lasting pre-eminence. Since the first important discovery by Daguerre, per haps no man lias done so much a* Mr. Gurney for the development of that beautiful Art through which the forms and faces so dear to the hearts of millions, arc now embalmed in light, and the shadows of whose living presence are made tangible to the waking vision, as truly as love has enshrined tlieir memory as an undying reality in our souls. To a strong love and a natural capacity for Art, Mr. Gurney has added the results of long and patient study and the most untir ing industry. Having devoted nearly twen ty years of his life to careful experimental investigations, with the view of perfecting that beautiful process which describes forms by the liyht, lie well deserves the enviable distinction which has crowned his unwea ried efforts, and made him so conspicuous in the front rank of American Photographers. According to the Poet, who sings to us in the new “ Golden Age,” such men a; Gur ney are standard-bearers in the armies of universal Progress. ‘•The man who adds a science or an art, Or ne w invention, practically wise. Leads the groat host; while those who only talk Ol‘ what men did, are laggards in the rear.” Mr. Gurney’s pictures on exhibition at the Fair, certainly constituted the central attraction, in the department of Fine Arts. Some of his specimens of Photographic Por traiture, finished in oil colors —and others in pastel—for fidelity to nature, for force of ex pression, delicacy and transparency of color, and exquisite elaboration of all the details, are unsurpassed—if, indeed, they are equal ed—by auy similar pictures which have been submitted to our inflection ; and we hazard nothing in saying that they will compare favorably with the finest illustrations of the Art in Europe. There is one sweet picture that represents a fair form and sac by the affluence of dark auburn hair, as twilight shadows hover round thcmornii gstar—which, with out leading us to forget the tangible objects ’of earthly perfection, is yet an eloquent sug gestion of paradisal charms, and a warm, living, and breathing incarnation, of essen tial Beauty, The utilitarian observer will be sure to have his attention arrested bv the specimens of Imrkoveh Gutta Peri ha Roofing. which Messrs. Jouxs and Crosley, of 310 Broad way, have on exhibition. Tin roof? are lia ble to he soon destroyed by the process of oxydation, unless they are frequently paint ed, and shingles soon decay; but the Gutta Perch a Roofing is free from all such objec tions. Jtisutonee proof against the two great elements which act with such destruct ive power on the more perishable materials that compose the roofs of many buildings, so that while it is impervious to water, we are also as-ured that one may build a fire on his house-top without endangering his dwel ling. At the same time that it opposes such effective resistance to the elements, its great elasticity secures it against injury from the greatest possible extremes of atmospheric temperature. The expense of covering a house with this excellent material is only about fifty per cent, on the cost of a good tin roof, and it i* confidently asserted by experienced builders, that, the Improved Guita l’ereha will last twice us long. It is also used lorcurs, steam boat decks, etc., and may be readi’v applied to an old house without the labor of remov ing the shingles. It is. therefore, an article of great practical value, susceptible of gener al application, and it is doubtless superior to any article hiiherto employed for similar purposes. John P. Gruber, of 184 Chatham Square —manufacturer of Scales, “Weights, Meas ures, Pumps, etc. —has some specimens of his work, which perhaps surpass, in mechan ical perfection, any thing of similar kind, now or heretofore ffn exhibition in this city. Among his A-savers. Bankers, Brokers. Jewellers aud Druggist’s scales — varying in price from twenty-tivo cents to eight hun cred dollars—we find some exquisite speci mens of precise and elaborate workmanship, while even the Goddess who presides over the equities in human affairs, could not de sire a more beautiful instrument to symbol ize her office, than the massive and splendid ly polished Balance, that stood, during the continuance of the exhibition, near the en- ! trance to the Palace Garden.

Soda Water, and Air Pumps, j his small machinery and polished metal in struments of various kinds, all illustra! and enforce his claims as ofle of our most skill ful German mechanics. ft KWS ITEMS. Charleston, Nov. 13—The steamship Is. abel, which has arrived here from Havana, re|K>rts having passed, ashoie on the Florida beach, several vessels. The. ship Charles Croc!, or. xv'lh cotton anti tobao.-o, was ashore and bail bilged. She wa lying about twenty-live miles North of Cape Florida. The ship lliihnrg, (perhaps TTeidlchurg is flic name intended) from New Uileans, bound lo Havre, is m di.-tieas about twelve miles from Cape Florida. She is loaded with cotton, and thirty-one thousand dol lats in specie on board. The Ship Ebza Mallory, from New Or leans, the barque Mary Stow (perhaps Mary Coe is intended) troin Mobile, and the brig North, are all in distress at Jupiter Inlet. Washington, Nov. 12. — A man calling himself McDonald was arrested here last night by Oilieer Allen, to whom he made such admissions as to lead t* the belief that he was one ofßrowu’s party, and had es caped from the Armory at Harper’s Ferry. He said he was originally from Boston.— His breast and chest aie well peppered with wounds, as from shot Governor Wise, on being telegraphed, returned an answer to send to Harper’s Ferry for persons to identi ty the prisoner, and to inform the President of the arrest. John Brown’s Nurses. —A correspondent says : “ The lady who, with her sod, visit ed John Brown, for me purpose of offering her services as nurae, and wa 3 sent back with little ceremony, was Mrs. Marcus Spring, formerly of this city, and now of Etgleswood, New Jersey. She is the daughter of the Quaker abolitionist. Arnold Bufiam. Mrs. Cmld, who had offered to nurse John Brown, went as far as Baltimore when she w<* met by the despatch that his health was -dmost restored, and that all the benevolence of his friends should be direct ed to his family. She accordingly returned to the North.”— N. Y. Post. Gin House Burnt. —The gin house of Mr. Pleasant B. Joue*, five or six miles from this d'y, was consumed by fire on Wednesday nigi.t last—together with some twenty-five or thirty bales of cotton. The fire is sup posed to have occurred by friction ot machin ery, as it is diiven by water power.— Cot?- inglon Times. 12 th. Columbia, S. C.. Nov. 14.—Mrs. Yankee Robinson uigd in this towu this morning about three o’clock, in consequence of an in humation of the lungs. She was connected with the equestrian aud dramatic exhibition known as Yankee R >bin on's show. Suspicious Character Arrested. —We learn iront a ptivate letter received by a gentleman on a visit to this city, that a man by toe name of Wayne has been arrested in Bumo übe County, N. C. He was caught by Dr. Hilliard aud Mr. Patton, who took him out of his beJ. lie says that he killed a man in Virginia, but it is supposeed he was connected in some way with the Har per’s Feiry affair. An intercepted letter contains evidence sufficient to bring him to justice. It is said that there is a reward of $)00 offered for him by the Governor of Virginia. He had 8700 in money on hi# ; e son wh-n ariested, which he handed over to his lawyer. The people of the southern Slates should he on the look out for all suspicious looking Characters. — Columbia Guardian. Washington, Nov. 14.—Senator Douglas is a arrniugly ill. A council of Physicians has been in attendance ail night, though they disagree as to his probable recovery. It is reported in well informed circles here, that Sam Houston's proposition for a limited protectorale over northern Mexico has been increasing in favor with the Ad ministration ever since the breaking out of the distuibances on the 110 Grande, and that it is not uniikt-ly it will form an im portant feature in the debate of the coming Congress. Abolition Emissaries. — We hear that several servants in Culpeper have reported to their masters that they have been ap proached by strangers with inducements to run away. The people are exercising a be coming vigilance, we learn, to ferret out these incendiaries. The truth is, we have ■ o longer auy use. in Virginia, for the vaga bond tourists or itinerant peddlers of un known character, who have heretofore found fiee course among us. And it becomes our c tizens ‘o hold ail such to account.—Rich ti.oid Whig.', More Browns in the Field.—A letter frpm a gentleman near Brandy Station, Cul peper county, Va., says: ‘On last Sunday night week, it was as certained that three white men, strangers, ail armed, visited the negro cabins, (belong ing to a citizen living in that neighborhood) at a late hour, a-king questions of the ne groes, as to the names of the proprietors of me adj .cent fa r nn. whether they were at h rue, the number of negroes on each place, and if they did not wish to go oil’under their esc r .” Tne facts are stated in order to induce prop t inquiry and proper caution —Afcur.

We regjret to have to announce the death of Mi j. William 1\ B iwen, which occurred at his residence on L berty street, in tLis citv, about 8 o’clock this morning. Major Bowen has long maintained a high reputation lor his knowledge cf military af fairs, in which he was a distinguished profi cient. He was for sometime Captain of the Savannah Volunteer Guards, one of our best companies, and to him they aie much indebted for their accurate ands ddierly drill. Major Bowen, at the tune of his dtath was about 60 years of age. Steamer Excel Snagged and Sunk. — Tite steamer Excel , from Augusta to Savan nah, wa# snagged Sunday night last, at Flowery Point, fifty-two miles below Au gusta. The steamer had a light cargo of flour and corn. The flour is the prop erty of Den mead Wright, of Marietta.— The .f.treZisa new boat, built at Johnson’s Ltinding on the Savannah river, and cost 816,000. Capt. Bobert Johnson, the agent m tins cityn will leave to-night, with all the necessary tools, Ac., to boat. There is no insurance on the boat or cargo. The Excel had thirteen cab:n passengers on board at the time. They lost part of their bag gage. Neither the crew or passengers were injured. TnE Work of Incendiaries —During the last week there has been great destruction of property, caused by fire in Talbot Valley and in thi# county, which was evidently the woik of incendiaries. On Mon jay morning Oct. 30th, tue gin house and screw of Mr*. Wornb’e, was burnt, with some ten or twelvt Jbales of cotton—loss, a bout’s 1,800,00. On Wednesday morning afterwards, Mr. Allen Womb e’s gin house, containing about seventeen bales, was burnt—ks, about §I,BOOOO. On Friday morning’ John Mil lon's gin house wa# burnt, with about 25 bales—kzss, obout $2,200 00, all under cir eumstances to prove teat incendiaries were at work. What fiendish purpose can prompt to such vandalism, we are unabie to divine. There is evidently a concerted scheme for the destruction of property among some evil disposed persons; for all the burning could not have been done by one p-rson. unless he is empowered with übiquity. The g n house of Mr. Faisen, of tt is county, was burnt on Thursday night last. We have been unaide to learn the extent of :oss. In view of recent occurrences at Harper’s F.-rry and those unaccountable fires in our very midst, it behooves the citizens to ex ercise vigilance, and strictly en'orte the pat rol laws of the State. The old maxim, in regard to ‘’vigilance being the price of liber ty,” may be aptly changed and rendered thus : Eternal vigilance is the price of your property. — I'pson Pilot. 12th inst.
