The oU saying that a "bird that can singahcf 'WOTt -ring, ought to be made tSaESg,” .cannot always be carried out. •Hi d Souther ner can sing loud and long whenever it Vrishee to propound inter rogatories to the Oturitr, or when de bouncing the Opposition as traitors, but -•when it is requested to answer a very ' felmplo question, it suddenly becomes 'vrondcrfully unmusical. .It won't sing, jpttd although we have tried our best in Uwo instances we have not been able to Snail's it sing. . Instead of answering openly and --candidly whether it would support Ste phen A. Douglas if he becomes the homineo at Charleston, it exults that Hr. John E. Boulighy of Louisiana a -Southern Opposition Representative has written a letter advocating l)is nom ination and. election. We don’t ask whether Boulignyor any other man of .whom we have never before heard, en dorses Douglas. We want to know if the Southerner right here in the Fifth District—the organ of the Rome Regen cy—the guardian of Southern rights and Southern honor—the Judge of the acts of the Southern Opposition Repre sentatives in Congress—the paper that -manifests such great uneasiness lest we should endorse Henry Winter Davis’ ▼oto for Pennington and asks its con temporaries innumerable questions to .test their soundness, we want to know if ttwill support DouglasJf he be nomi" noted by the Democratic party, ThesQeneeof the Southerner proves that it Seated to say that it will support the great Northern leader of its party— even if tint party gives the word of command. It is time then that al 1 boasting about the soundness of the Northern Democracy should cease. " But since our neighbor has so gently given us the hint, perhaps it has been so busily engaged patching up the fpAhea broken in his “glass house” by the stones thrown at us, that he has not -bad time to answer our question.' Wo iherefore put it again and earnestly beg that it will be answered. Will the South erner support Stephen A. Douglas if he be dominated by the Charleston Conven* tionj Pleats answer this week. ■ W Extern Billy Smith Nonplussed Few persons know how the lion. ffm. Smith, of Virginia, obtained the tobri- quet of “Extra Billy,” Joshua Oiddings, in a recent lecture on “Scenes in Con gress,” explains thecircumstancesinthe foliofiring accounts of the memorable pro ceedings, against John Quincy Adams, many years ago: “ Mr. Ghldings said that on the eighth day, as Mr. -Adams was speaking, he be came impatient under the constant in terruption by Southern men, among whom was Mr. Smith of Virginia. “He had been a contractor, and at the end of every year be demanded extra compen sation, and the clerks of the depart ment bad given hjm the sobriquet of 'Extra Billy.’ He is the same man you recollect, who, on last Christmas day, took the egg-nogg in Congress, and now, I believe, be is called 'Egg-nogg Smith.’ Mr. Smith arose, and the speaker said: “The gentleman from Massachusetts has the floor.” 'I know that,’ said Mr. Smith; 'but I want to make a sugges- sion for the benefit of the gentlotnen from Massachusetts.’ Mr. Adams turn ed around with a scowl, and said, 'Non tuli auxilio,’—which means, ‘I des.ro no such aid.’ But Mr. Smith, like many others, had forgotten his Latin, aud stood still, not knowing what to answer. Turning to Clu-istopcr Morgan, ho said: Morgan, what the devil does that mean V Mr. Morgan was something of a wag, and said; 'Why; you see the old gentleman has become perfectly en raged, and he is telling you to go to— you know the place where, (pointing downward.)Mr. Smith recoiled back in to his chair os if he had been shot, and so for as my knowledge goes, never again alluded to the namo of the man until he had been dead seventy years.” teTMqj. Ben McCulloch, now in Washington City, has received a dis patch from Gov. Houston, tendering him an important military command in the service of Texas. Texas, like Virginia, is now fully aroused to the resolution to protect herself, and not to wait longer for the aid of Federal forces, «U of whom are needed to hold Sail ,],uan, to protect the Northwestern Territories from terrible Indian tribes, and to catch filibusters and slavers. Opposition State Convention. : The Savannah Republican, whoso edi tor is chairman of the Opposition Exec utive Committee, informs us that the ^committee have under consideration the questions of time and plaoe of calling the convention. When the discussion was going on In some of the papers up on this subject, we took no part in it, feeling confident that the whole matter was hs good hands, and would be prop erly managed. We oris soon to. have -theanjamnsoemeotof aeaUfor a con vention, aud wo hope every county in the State vriU respond promptly and with unanimity. There vraa a time when we hoped that all the elemento of opposition of the South to frecaollism could bo united, but that hope doee not now exist.— Stephen A.Douglas’ "short cut to all the ends of Black Republicanism” is the road in which Southern Democrat* must travel, or quit their party. The latter they will never do. As long as 'they are plastered with a little of the “adhesive property” they will stick to gether. The Southern Opposition party Is aow theSouthern Rights party. It trill tight Black Republicanism and Squatter 'Boyccelgutr, They stand upon the plutform.of 4859—containing the same principles of Abe Alabama Democratic and the Georgia December Democratic Convention#. Ihese principles-will nev- er be adopted aWJharlestQ*.. The Squat ter Sovereignty delegates, oriio are in the majority, and will control that body will never allow it. Let us then organ* lie, upon the Constitution and,the en forcement of the Laws, as interpreted ■by thedSupresae Court, and -if tho antt- Dou'gliu Democrats care anything dor principles they must unite with ns in 'carrying them out. We hope to hear -from the Executive Committee at an ■esty dBy., and then see oil go to work In earnest. -., -■»•»»»* ■ ■■ Sinodlak Cask.—On the 26th of tost December, a little son of Tho*. Cran dall, of McKean township, Erie county, Fa., aged 10 months, While playing on Abe floor, was suddenly attacked with jfrrotomaof choking, and was sup posed to have partly swallowed a piece of aljwoud husa. The little fellow, al though temporarily relieved, continued to pino away tttotU the 82d of February, when bodied. A post mortem exami nation was made, and in the windpipe, below the breastbone, wasfound a spiral • noil of brass wire, for an inch long mid ,1-12 in diameter, completely imbedded in the membrane. It was the spring of j). clothes pin, »»d retainod all its elas ticity and power, MTTho Shoemaker's Strike hf repor ted os rapidly extending to all thoprin* jipal manufacturing towns of*'— **— setts.

Foster, tho nominee of the State Convention for Governor, is an Anti- Lecompton Democrat. Alas poor Buck 1 Tbe NoRTn-irxsT Passage.—Some year ago the British government offered a reward of twenty thousand pounds sterling to the discoverer of the North west Passage. The prize has been al ready awarded by the Government to Sir It. McClure. 'This officer sailed from Behring’s Straits, and reached the fu: ti- est point eastward attained by any ves sel. From this point he abandoned his ship, after being two years shut up in the ice, and ana still proceeding east ward, joined the expeditions from Baffin’s Bay, tlioroby completing tbe voyage and journey across the North American continent from the Pacific to the Atlantio. The friendB of Sir John Franklin, however, claim that the credit is due him, and that his widow is in consequence entitled to the money. Singular Case of Somnambulism Tho Manchester Mirror says that last Thursday night, during the violent snow storm which was raging at that time, Mrs. Helper, wife of George Hel per, of Fisherville, arose in her sleep without awakening her nurse, who was sleeping with her, and passed out at the back door, and jumped or fell into a well, 40 feet deep, containing about two feet of water. The nurse subsequently awaking missed her, when search was made and she was at length found in that precarious condition and extrica ted. She had long been fearful that some of her children would fall into the well, and had frequently dreamed about it, and had probably been dream ing on this night of such an accident and went to the supposed rescue. She escaped with a few slight bruises. Fatal Conflict- with a Runaway Ne gro.—This morning w<> .learn that a run away negro, belonging to Mr. ivObt. • Y. Ware, was found at the gin house ot Mr. Chas. H. Molton, in this county.— Messrs. Molton and Ware, and the lat ter gentleman’s overseer, (whose name we nave not heard,) attempted to arrest the negro, who, armed with a scythe- blade and pistol, fired the latter, the ball striking Mr. Molton in the fore head and inflicting a painful but not dangerous wound. Mr. Ware and liis overseer, it is stated,-than fired upon, the negro, killing him instantly. Tho coroner was immediately sent for, and the inquest will probably be held this af ternoon.—Mont. Mail. Yellow JsssflkiNX Flowers.—This is itfoe season, says the Augusta Constitution alist. when the beautiful and highly aro matic, but dangerous, yellow jessamine flower is in bloom. Parents, and moth ers partienlerly, should inform their ‘Ohiltiron that those flowers are poison ous. .Wfe hare on former occasions call ed attention to this matter, and have heattf ctf many children who have died from the chewing these flowers. If this fact is generality known it may save toady a fohd parent premature grief ov er loved offspring. Toe Pemberton Mills.—The Pember ton Mills property has been sold at auc tion to Mr. David Nevins, for $76,00 The iron and the mutters detached from the buildings now standing and the ruins of theold mill were sold for $11,900, the purchase being understood to be al so for Mr. Nevins. Th# Wheat Crop.—During our recent trip into Rhea county, we mode partic ular inquiry of the leading fanners of that county as to the present prospects of tbe wheat crop, and all united in re- presenting it as anything but promising —whole fields had been entirely frozen out.—Chat. Atlv. 9th, Mr. Seward's Bid for the Chicago Nomination. The N. Y. Express makes the follow ing remarks aboutMr.Beward’s speech ;n the Senate on the 29th ult: What is most to be remarked in this remarkable apeecli, from certainly a most remarkable man—is not any new light that it sheds upon the relationship North and South, on the slavery issue- hut tho toning down, the glossing over, and the rounding off of tho sharp cdgeB of tbe mischievous, if not revo lutionary, sentiments advanced by the orator in his speech in this State, a twelvemonth ago, and more particular ly in the famous “irrepressible speech” at Rochester. Thus, we look in vain now for a repetition of that Rochester phrase; in vain for the extreme measures against the "pro-slavery oligarch” so earnestly urged then, in vain for a word or sentence of any kind, that would lead to the belief that the speaker had ever dreamed of such a thing as an irre pressible conflict. But we do find in their stead the most glowing panegyrics of this Union, and the most saint-like appeals to toleration ami fraternity, coupled with an unequivocal expression of theatrical horror at the treason of John Brown, and of reproach for all who Reek, like him, to “enforce their peculiar principles by tho sword.” The main object of this speech from tho original patentee of the irrepressi ble conflict is transparent enough. The object is to conciliate, os far as possible, the conservativefelement of the Oppo sition, with a view to the contingencies of the coming Presidential election.— The doctrine enunciated at Rochester by Mr. Seward, before he went to Eu rope, was so alarming, that, in view of the fearful agitation since, which has been in part its bitter fruit, many Re publicans even were doubtful of the expediency of taking him as their standard bearer. It is to quiet these fears that this oily speech was expressly made. '■ But anybody can see, it is the incendiary, professing to help extin guish the conflagration after lie 1ms ap plied the torch. In other words, it is the Senator's highest bid for the sec tional nomination at Chicago ; tho last, card, whicli is expected to win for him the stakes for which ho has been playing bo desperately theso many years post. The Dome of the Capitol.—Tho fol lowing interesting estimates connected with this towering and costly structure, ore taken from the report recently com municated to Congress: The whole weight of iron work requi red is 3,7000 tons, of which 1,900 tons have been erected during the last three years. Tho original design laid before Congress was altered in 1856, and $100,- 000 appropriated in' August of that year, and $500,000 on March 3d, 1857. Another change was made last year, to accommodate Mr. Crawford’s figure of Freedom and its pedestal for the top of of the dome, it being larger than the first design. The dome cannot be re stored to the original plan without large loss and retarding its completion. Tho sum of $301,800 41 has been expended on the demolition of tho old dome and irogress on the new. Tho balance on mml is $398,145 59. The turn of $245,.- 000 is required for the completion. Tho total cost will bo $901,000 and three years more time is necessary. 1©*“Judge Douglas in a democrat— as good a democrat as lives today.” So says Gen. Cass, the venerable Sec retary of State. Our contemporary of the Union and American says ho is a “gambler in politics." Gov. Wise says his doctrines are a “short out to all the ends of Republicanism.” We can guther from those views what constitutes “as good a democrat as lives to-day.”— Judge Douglas is a type of tho democ racy of the clay. The article may have been good in its time, but it has been mixed up witli so many of tho bad things which characterise the politics of tho country, that even a "gambler in g olitics” illustrates, adorns, and digni- es it. And yet, true men, pure men, of all parties, are invited by its leaders to embrace itl Wlmt a fall it would be for them to comply 1—Nashville Patriot. Bathing Below the Zeros.—The Bos ton See says: We stated, the other day, thut a Dr. Mayo G. Smith, of Newburyport, had accustomed hiuisclf to bathe in the op en or icy, as it might be, river durinj i'jo winter. In a Tetter to the Ilernlc of that city, he says: “This is the fourth winter I have bathed in the river or sea -since my return to the United fjtates. I have rbn five miles, divested myself of clothing, dashed into the river, swam amid ice cakes, then dressed anc ran two miles home. I have dived into the stream from the oml of a pier sev en to fifteen feet into the channel, whose rapid current and tidal motion ordinarily prevented freezing—or if fro zen, I have cut the ice, and at no time this or tho preceding winter have I been sheltered by house or shed; but after a bath such is the warmth that summer clothing would suffice for covering.— The coldest morning it was 15° below sero, or 47° below freezing point. I us ually run a couple of miles, uso flesh brush and towefs, sometimes stand in the snow, frequently dry myself in cold northeast winds. 1 take no beverage, no coffee, tea, or spirituous drinks; nor do I use tobacco. I never feel cold af ter leaving the water; .never suffer from colds; never have coughs -, 1 never had disease of any kind; no aches; no pains. My bathing time is by or before sunrise.” The Lost Steamship. The Hungarian was one of seven ]x>w- erful screw-steamers owned by the alon- troal Ocean .Steamship Company,' which were employed in running between Liverpool and Quebec nnd Montreal in summer, and to Portland ill winter, touching at Cork.

She is of iron, 2,500 tons burden Plans und Specifications will be furnished was built on tho Clyde in 1857, nnd was classed A 1 at Loyds, whore her hull is insured; her cargo being probably in sured in part ill the United States. She was valued at about £4,000. Tho Hun gariiin was a beautiful specimen of na val architecture, her bows rounded to that curve whicli modern ship-builders have adopted ns the shape which offers least resistance to tho water. The rest of the hull was also in graceful pro portions. Tho vessel was 320 feet in length, her breadth of beam 39 feet, nnd depth of hold 27 feet. Sho was propelled by double engines of 350 horse power.— The engines were constructed by Mes srs. Tuiloeh & Denny, Dumbarton, and tho vessel built by Mr, William Deuny & Bros, of the same place. Her crow, nU told amounted to 110, which includes about 40 waiters. As this number was somewhat reduced nt the present season, it is probable the crew did not exceed 100 persons. Sho had accommodations for 150 cabin nnd 300 steerage passengers. The Montreal Company have already lost one vessel, tho Indinn, which let' Liverpool on the 9th of November last ami was totally wrecked on tho island of Mary Joseph, Nova Beotia, on the2ht of that month, under circumstances nearly similar to tho present.—N. I'. Sun. .Surprise Party Surprised.—Young America uot long ago undertook to have asupriso party at- tho house of Dean Richmond, iii Buffalo , N. Y. In full feat jers, with outubles nnd drinkables nnd music, the self-invited guests, to the number of two hundred, drove up to Dean’s door, rung the bell, nnd pre pared for a rush in; hut they reckoned wrong. Dean answered the bell in per son, and, of course, blocked up the en trance. Tho Buffalo Express tells the rest: lie politely asked the business of the leader of tho party, lie is inform ed “that this is a surprise party.” lie assures them that ho is not surprised nt all—is no4RPnirprised at anything now- a-days—does not intend to have a party that night—when he wants one he will make proper preparation, and bid the guests himself.* He wishes them a a pleasant “good night,” and closes the door. This was fairly turning the ta bles on Young America—tho surprisers were the surprised party. * uml Hpei l>y Col. 0. M. Pennington, Chief Engineer. By order of tho Board of Directors. JOHN II.
