The Soil of the South gives in tl e following letter, the fullest account we have teen of the catastrophe. Columbia Henry m. Feb. 14 ii, 13 5-1. Dean Sin:—The Steamer Alabama, in Which ,on;e of your citizens a-e interest ed, waß totally consumed yesterday even ing i ear this place. I learn that she took fi;a a little before sunset, opposite EJ vjmmd Talbot’s plantation, and in a few minutes was entirely envelope J in fl ones. Toe boat was run tq the Georgia side, and all hands safely landed on Jusnua McDonald’s plantation. About sunse she drifted by this landing a mass of i\ ones, and finally went agr uid at the O.r.ussa Shoals, where she now lies.— 09 pi? fny halts of Cotton may possibly lie saved in a damaged condition, but so jtff that boat apdcargo may be consider ed a tula) loss, To is is the second boat and cargo de stroyed within one week, the Eagle with about I§QQ bales, destroyed o.i Monday l$s f ; about ]LB miles btlow. (jf the origin of the lire J au> not in formed; from the appearance of the boat as she passed here i should presume she took lire foi w *rd ’ the eye.ring was very? windy, and as she swung off’ after thrl hands left her, the fire naturally spread / oil evfry side. One negro is said to be’ slightly burned, ('supposed to he’ong to Capt. Berry;l he clung to ihe rudder un til taken offhy one of the officers, (Nash) in a small boat. Knowing how apt rurnnt is to exage rate, I have concluded il best to let you know by mail. You will undoubtedly get full particulars in a day or two by officers or hands returning. Yours truly, J.B. TAYLOR. Cotton Burned.— The Savannah Morn ing News of the 9th inst. reports, that on | tiie Tuesday morning previous, ns the : clown freight train came near Station No. I 16, it was discovered that several bales of | cotton w ere on fire. Every effort was made to extinguish it, but notwithstand ing, front 100 to 200 bales of cotton to ’ gether with several freight cars were dc | stroyed. I V’ e also learn that one day last week ; some fiend or fiends in human disguise, 1 placed a log across the rails of the South- I Western Road, which threw off the loco j I motive, by which one of the hands was in-! staidly killed. The opinion gains ground that the Em peror of Russia, will, even at the eleventh hour, forego his ambitious design, and ac cept, with some modifications, the Vienna Note. On the other hand the Boston Rost says.—‘‘Letters received in this city by the last steamer from Europe, directed commercial agents here to foreign houses to enter into no business engagements at present, in conscqcencc of the probability i general European war.” Mii.ia.x Treaty.—The treaty n. gotiale I by Co’. Gadsden with M-x'co, was sent to Senate by the President, for their approval or rejection, on Friday the 10. h ins'. V rom the annual tabular statement of the Railroad Journal it appears, that the whole number of miles of railroad in the United States, in operation, upon the Ist div of the current year, was 15,511 miles; an increase of 2191 miles since Jan. Ist, 1553. Pacific Railroad Bills. —Washington, Jan. 31: Senator Foote of Vermont, will shortly introduce the Pacific Railroad bill, with a capital of seventy five million, one third subscribed by individuals, one third j waved by the government until 18S5, and one third given by government, in consid eration of which the mail, troops, kc are 1 to be transported.

The Patriarch of Weddings. — Rev Sebastian Sirccter, of Boston, married. 189 couples in the year 1853, and made twice that number of individuals happy of course. A young man named Philip Delau-ie. who was committed to jail in Provence to-.vn, New Jersey, in September last, f>r forgery, eloped a few days since with his jailor’s wife. The “fair” one carried off about SIOO with her, and the twain are supposed to be now on their way to Eu rope. Indian Delegation. —The Tampa He rald, of the Ist inst. says: “By the ar rival of the J. T. Sprague we are inform ed that four of the Indian Delegation to the Seminules in Florida, hive visited Billy Bow leg* at his headquarters, and that lie has requested an interview with the entire Delegation, a part of which re mained at Cailoosahathie. The whole number are now in the Indian country, but of their success we know nothing. Thirty-three tons of silver arrived at Philadelphia on Finlay las', from the New Orleans Mint, under the Superinten dence of ex-Marshal Kevser. The spe cie was put in small iron covered boxes, and it required no less thin six cars to convey it (torn Pittsburgh lo the city of Philadelphia. Tois immense treasure was transmitted the entire distance without any extra escort or fuss. In England they would use a regiment of policemen to escort it through a street. Consumption Baffled. —Since the days of Esculapius, medical men have striven in v.do to conquer that arch enemy of man kind, consumption. Dr. Ayer, of Lo. well. Mass , as we have every reason to believe, succeeded in attaining this object, nearer than any predecessor or contempor my. He calls his remedy Ayer’s Oerry Pectoral, by which name it has been favorably known for manv years in ali parts of the world. It is re commended by numerous eminent per sons as the best remedy for diseases of the throat and lungs pxlant. Dr. Ayer recently received a letter from lion. Dan iel Webster, m which that statesman speaks of the Pectoral in the highest terms, and mentions that he is personally knowing to the usefulness of this article in both America and Europe. New York •Sunday Times. Dr. Rogers's Syrup of Liverwort, Tar, and Cane halo gun. — Ihe value of this remedy for consumption, or any form of Lung disease, cannot he over estimated, and those who doubt its astonishing effi cacy, are advised to examine the state ments given in its favor by distinguished and well known citize is.
