The Sea Islands of Georgia- A correspondent of tlie South, (n paper published iu New York) who his been visiting along our coast long enough to see the in iguificciice of the islands mid harbors, writes a lengthy description, from which we take a few extracts. The writer is pleased with the Georgia seaboard, and lie may well be, for if he were to try the whole Atlantic si aboard from Maine to Mexico be could not hud a more healthy location, or one in which he could ei joy the comforts of wealth and refinement better. The writer says : At the southeastern extremity of Georgia is Cumberland, the hugest, the liigln stand the gem of these beautiful islands. Besides some few other fruits slid standing on the “Dungi ness grounds” there are hun dreds of healthy olive trees, now over s .x'y years in bearing, aud which till, plainer than words, what cotihl be done here in the production ot pure olive 0.1, Near the middle of tlit island, too, with its boundaries extending from the sound to the sen, is the “Siafiord Place,” the only perfectly kept-uu plantation homestead on the Georgia seaeuast, (the homestead, not the plantation). From tlie “Stafford House,” an ex tensive view is obtained, including Cumberland Sound, and far up, the St . Mary’s ltiver, winch is io be one of the new Atlantic outlets ot the hundred rivers which flow from the Western and Southern valleys into the Gulf ot Mi xieo.

Frobel lias begun the survey of tl e Coosa river, which was ordered at ihe hist session of Congress. As soon us the necessaries in Ihe way of boats and outfit have been secured, he will urge the work on to a rapid completion. The object of the sur vey is to complete and perfect the estimates of the surveyed portions of the contemplated water-line between the sou heastern coast. The uui'-r sal favor witu which this project "us received at the last session demon strates clearly, that its value to com merce is fully understood. Tlie com mittee to which it was entrusted re ported unanimously in its favor, and prospects are that a decided move will be made in the matter during the next winter. The project is of vital importance to the Yi est and of no 1 iss value to the South. Especially would it benefit the iron interests of Alabama and Georgia. ®i~A repor er of the Boston Tran script is in luck. Avery pretty girl asked him if a vacant car seat by his side was engaged.

[From thy New Orleans Bulletin], Died, in the city of New Orleans, on Thursday evening, the 17th of Sep tember, at 7 o’clock p. m., the Sov ereign State of Louisiana, after a lingering and paiufm disease, which she bore with Christian fortitude and patient resignation for two long years. Tlie’States comprising the family were in attendance upon tlie funeral, winch took place on Saturday morn ing, at her iale residence, the St. L mis II tel. The friends of hnrnau ilx.rfy, of every color aud condition, were likewise present and participa ted iu the solemn obsequies. Th 3 disease which caused the death of this git-tit State was anew type of debility, heretofore unknown to the medical faculty. The entire lamily of States are sat isti and now that the case of Louisiana was improperly and unskillfully treat ed. In fact, she was bled to death. Pulebotoiny had so reduced her con stitution that death ensued, leaving In r attenuated and after death a were skeleton and a ghastly sight. Buried now out of sight, and her star blotted out of the galaxy of States, nothing is hft to a mourning nut ion hut ihe vivid lecollections of lie once great fame and glory of tlie proud State whose last sad rites lm*o just been p* rforined. No longer does the flag of the nation, that waves o’er “ihe tiome of the oppressed of every land,” .flaunt the star of Louisiana. Death baft e eated a void that time alone can fill. Louisiana now sleeps beneath her own and, enshrined in the memory of her gallaht sons who fought so brave v to save lu i from the vampires that so erin l'y sucked her life blood away. But her brave defenders look hopeful ly forward to a day of resurrection when the stone will be rolled from ihe mout h of her sepulchre, and Louisiana will rise in her might and shine once again in her brightness as iu the days of constitutional liberty. A Fiendish Outrage -Two Chil dren Burned to Death by a Discharged Domestic. A Kentucky pa| er tells the follow ing horrible story: Some weeks ago a woman calling herself Bridget Mal iiony, applied to I)r. Jackson, of Co lumbus, Kv., tor the place of cook. Employment was given her, and for a short, while she gave satisfaction. A few days ago the doctor noticed some irregularities in her life, and notified her that she must look out for another home. This appeared to infuriate her beyond control —the pent up devil iu her nature hurst fort in a fury of pas sion that sent the doctor scampering for the police, and the lamily lor an of safety. When he returned, Bridget had d< parted leaving his mir rors and furniture a wreck. It ap pears tliat, from a mistaken kindness, she was not prosecuted, but allowed to depart unmolested. From his resi dence she went to tlie hotel or board ing house kept by ail estimable Ger man Catholic, named Switzher, near the M. and O. railroad. Blm easily imposed herself upon the good nature of lire lady, and was permitted to stop with her, paying her board in work. She behaved badly again, aud Mrs. S. discharged her. Jnsteael of going off, however, she vveut up into Mrs. S.’s room (it was immediately after breakfast ) and sent tor this lady iroui tne dining room. When she got into her presence she commenced to abuse her in a most shameful manner, Mrs. Switzlier tried to quiet her, and expressed sympathy for her Bridget told her she had better sympathize with herself, and made at her. Mrs. S. rushed down stairs, leaving her three children, consisting of a little boy four years old, two daughters aged respectively six and ten, iu the room. The oldest says that the two children were in the bed with the mos quito bar fastened down around it, and that Bridget deliberately took the lamp mid saturated the bed aud children with coal oil and fired it. Before assistance could reach them the passage was a solid sheet of flame, and tlm two children were burifbd, with the house and most of the fur niture. Tim fiend is iu prison, and the poor mother nearly distracted with grief at her terrible loss.
