The U. S. Mail Steamship Georgia, arriv
ed in New York on Friday, with dates from
San Francisco to the first of October.
The health of the Isthmus is good, very
few cases of fever and no cholera.
A military force has been organized un
der the direction of Gen. Paez, which is
great benefit to passengers crossing the
Isthmus. The natives are not allowed to
carry arms of any description. Gen. Paez
and his officers deserve great credit for their
vigilance and promptness in suppressing
murders and robberies. w &
The Panama Railroad is m good order,
and the cars run twice a day to Barbacu
Kingston, Jamaica, are quite healthy
epidemic prevailing.
The San Francisco Whig, of the first of
October, says:
Since the sailing of the last steamer
nothing of importance has occurred. The
news from the interior relating to mining af
fairs is somewhat uninteresting, owing to
the scarcity of water. Large numbers of
miners, however, are in the expectation of
doing a good winter’s business, dating from
the rainy season.
The annual agricultural and Hortieultu
ral Fair at Sacramento is now being held ,
among the prizes to be awarded are eighty
silver cups and goblets, and to those accils
tomed to American and European Standards
the weight and dimensions of some of the
Vegetable specimens are almostincreditable
The health of our city continues to be
good. Comparatively few deaths have ta
ken place, and the few cases of cholera hav
readily yielded to medical treatment. On
the whole, we may say that never has our
City worn a more healthy aspect.
Biscaccianti and the Alleghanians are
singing in the mountains.
I he United States Laud Commissioners
are ,in session at Los Angelos. Among
other important claims before them is that
of Col. Fremont.. «
The village of White Rock, near Piacer-
ville,_was destroyed by fire on the 15th insfc.
It is our painful duty to record the death
of John Cbetwood, Esq., who expired on
the 17th instant, lie was from New Jersey
where his father’s family resides. E. W.
F. Sloan, Esq., of this city, has been nomi
nated by the State Central Committee to
fill the vacancy occasioned by his death.
The immigration is fast coming in, and
the reports of sickness and privation on the
plains are heartrending in the extreme.
The relief train sent out by the State to
their assistance have been guilty of the
meannessrof selling them food and water.
The health in some portions of the mines
is bad. At Burton’s Bar, Park’s Bar, and
Ousley’s Bar several cases or sporadic chol
era have occurred, which have proved' far
tal.
A company of 1st regiment of cavalry,
numbering one hundred, under the com
mand of Major Fitzgerald, have left this
city for Cliasta.
More interest is manifested in political af
fairs than ever before in the history of our
State. The Whigs are at work in-every
section with an earnest determination, and
can scarcely fail of success. Many sterling
Whigs are stumping the State for Scott and
Graham. Unless trickery and corruption
triumph, as in our last election, the State
is sure for Scott and Grahum.
In San Francisco a Whig Club has beeh
formed' in- every ward. Meetings are held-
rightly. Nominations for part of the muni
cipal officers have been made,- and every
thing is being done to secure the Whig su
premacy throughout the State, 3
Hon. T. Butler King has resigned his of
fice as Collector of the port of San Francisco
and iris resignation has been accepted by
the President. Mr. King has been eminent

and he will retire from office with a con
sciousness of having faithfully performed his
obligations to the administration, and with
the approval of the great body of the busi

The Stockton Republican learns from the
sheriff of Tulare county, that the Indians
are quiet, and no alarms are entertained by
the settlers. Large numbers of emigrants
are settling down on the fertile plains with
theft families. There is every prospect of
that portion of the country beiner thickly

A man named Michiael Garth, fit Wes
terville* Trinity county, has been sentenced
to be hung* for the murder of Mr. Holt,
from Cole County, Missouri.
Since our last issue, the bark Russell, of
this port, has arrived from the north-west
with 4600 bbls whale oil, and 26,000 lbs!
bone. She arrived here in about five months
and a half from the time she left the Sand-,
wich Islands for the whaling ground. She
brings highly favorable reports from the
North-west fleet to August 2 2d, at which
time many ships were seen entering Beh
ring’s Straits, for the season in the Arctic,
which lasts till October, or as long as the
eel can stay ou account of the weather.

presidential election
The election in this eounty passed off un
usually quiet,, and with an unusually small
vote. There has been no excitement in the
county during the canvass, and none what
ever on the day of election. People voted,
or did not vole, just as it seemed to strike
their fancy at the moment. Many came to
this place and went home without voting;
while more did not leave their homes at all.
We anticipated something of this sort for
some time preceding the election. The
W higs were disappointed and indifferent,
and the Democrats careless and negligent.
It has been a negative sort of an election
here,—the Whigs were willing to let the
election go by default, and the Democrats
were willing to take it in that way and save
themselves the labor of any exertion :
In 1844 the vote stood.
Clay
Florida gone for Pierce.
Delaware gone for Pierce,
New Jersey gone for Pierce.
Indiana gone for Pierce.
Pennsylvania gone for Pierce by 25,000
majority.
Rhode Island gone for Pierce by 1000
majority.
Virginia gives a-large majority for Pierce.
Maryland gives 4,000 majority for Pierce
Kentucy doubtful, close vote. *
Tennessee doubtful.
Iowa, fauorable to Democrats. .
Ohio gives 20,000 majority for Pierce.
Accounts from Mississippi are favorable
to the Democrats. Mobile county give 400
majority for Pierce.
We learn from-a-passenger who left At
Ianta Saturday evening, that telegraphic
intelligence had been received just before
he left, announcing that Massachusetts had
gone for Pierce by 44 votes, North Caro
lina by 6,000, and that Tennessee, Kentuc

This of course is- the average of the votes
given, some of the Electors- receiving more
and others less. Mr. Flournoy, for instance?
rutting ahead of his ticket some twenty
votes and others on the Scott rieke-t Tun
ing behind near the same number.
It will be seen that the majority for
Pierce over Seats is 215 ; the majority of
the Democratic ticket over all others is 168
votes—the Tugaloos-getting two votes.
It is now given up by all parties,, that
Franklin Pierce has been elected President
of the United States, and though the re
turns are not by any mearis fall or com
plete, yet enough is known to exhibit this
fact,- and give a further indication that his
majority will be the largest ever given to
any candidate for that office.
In our own opinion this has been rightly
determined, and the President elect is fully
deserving the high honor and flattering
compliment thus bestowed upon him by
the people of this Government. We sin
cerely hdpe that his election ifisy result in
the continued happiness and prosperity of
the eountrv. His past history fully warrants
the belief that he will make an honest
faithful and capable Executive.
The following is the last news that we
have, The wires on the Northern route have
been down, and news of the result has been
rather slow in reaching this State; what has
been received came by the way of New

this paper the Prospectus of a new publi
cation, bearing the above title, to be issued
at Thomasville, on or about the first- bf
January next. ,The proprietor, Mr. John
son, is well known to the most of our rea
ders, having been connected with this of
fice for the past six or eight years. Since
our connection with the ‘Georgian,’ now
closing the fifth year, he has constantly had
the charge of its publication, and frequent
ly during that time has filled the place of
the Editor, We regret to loose his valua
ble assistance, and are - sure that our citi
zens, among whom he is known and es
teemed for his sterling character and- in
tegrity will share in these' regrets. We
congratulate the people of Thomasville in
gaining a citizen,- who-is id* every way de
serving their friendship and - confidence,
and who is entirely worthy the position
which be will occupy before them.
Tho Watchman, it will be seen, is to be

interests of that growing and interesting
section of Georgia-, We are confident that
this journal will meet the wants of the rea
ding public, and sincerely trust that the
Proprietor may be amply remunerated for
the outlay of labor and capital in establish
ing his journal.
Suspected PoisoHiHg and. Pari*
cide-Tenibie Disclosure*
Our neighbors of Looking Glass Prairie
have been thrown into most serious alarm
and excitement for the last few days, by rea
son of recent disclosures, affecting the char
acter of two of its citizens. We suppress
the names of the parties implicated, in eon-
m
sideration of the respectability of their rela
tives. The circumstances involve the com
mission ot a crime so. horrible and unnatu
ral, that it was considered an impossibility
under the Roman law. A crime of no less
a dye than the niurder of both father and
mother.- . j.
As we are informed, the facts are briefly
these: Mr. G. and his wife, lately residing
about six miles north-east from Lebanon,
were suddenly taken ill just after taking tea,
during the past spring. They were respec
table farmers, having a family consisting of
three children, the eldest a daughter about
fifteen years ot age. Mrs. G. died: within
two days after the attack, seemingly labor
ing under an attack of fatal cholera. Mr.,
vr. recovered; but soon after, being some
what indisposed, his eldest child, the"daught
er, prepared some gruel at his request. ° Of

A New Cure for Bronchial and Con
sumptive: Complaints.—Dr. Cartwright, of
New Orleans, communicates to-the Boston
Medical and Surgical Journal, an article
entitled—“'The Sugar-House Cure for Bron
ehial, Dyspeptic, and Consumption Com
plaints.” If is stated that a residence in a
sugar-house, during the rolling season, far
surpasses any other known means of restor
ing flesh, strength* and health, lost by
chronic ailments of the chest, throat, or
stomach. The rolling season is the harvest
when the canes are eut, the juice expressed
and converted into sugar. In Louisiana it
commences about the middle of October,
and ends at Christmas, but it is sometimes
protracted into January. Dr. C. 6ays the
vapor is most agreeable and soothing to the
lungs, and in his own case ebtirely removed
distressing cough; Me stood for hours in I
the sugar house inhaling the vapor, and
drinking occasionally a glass of the hot cane
juice.
Cuba and Ofetr UnUedTstecs.
The Madrid correspondent of the Kolnis-
cheZeitung writes under date of October 2,
that he knows from a sure source that the
American Ambassador at that Court has
lately renewed the offer of 1180,000,000
made under Mr. Polk’s administration, for
the island of Cuba. The Ministry, after
having made the matter the subject of spe
cial deliberation, replied that Spain no long
er thought of parting with the Island, but
would employ her utmost power fco keep-it.
As for the attempts of the filibusters to
which the .Ambassador had.alludednn, mak
ing his proposal* be no longer feared them,
but was read} 7 to suppress them- as soon- as
tneyshould be made. The army in the island
was strong, loyal and' trustworthy, and the
civil officers would; prove faithful to the last.
The reply concluded by requesting the Am
bassador not to renew the proposal. The
general belief at Madrid, says the writer, is
that the fiiibustiering reports are got up by
the American- Government, in order to in
duce Spain to sell the island. Accordingly
this reply of the Minister’s gives general
satisfaction, to the public of that city.

Washington dispatch dated: on
Monday last, says:
Gem Scott has, within a few days, ex-
pressed.bitnself as very confident of his elec
tion by a large majority, and his friends
though not so sanguine, have considerable
confidence. The Pierce men are • perfectly
confident of success, and are bet-ting freely.
General Scott will leave Washington to?
morrow morning for a few days. His des?
tination is not known.
If the General maintained his confident
anticipations to the last, the election news
must have come upon him like a. “thousand
of brick
nic, kept in the farm house to destroy
min, suddenly disappeared, and that the
daughter had inquired for poison at the
house of an uncle, about a mile distant;, that
the physician who attended, the dying foth,
er, requested, permission to examine the
gruel* but that it had been thrown away by
the daughter;, that the ensuing day a num
ber of domestic fowls died around the house..
But above all, the correspondence of the
daughter with the suitor, having been, ac
cidentally read- disclosed, to the astonished
relatives several circumstances proving the
suspected crime.
We learn that the coroner of St. Clair,
will exhume the dead bodies, in order to
submit the contents of. their stomachs to
chemical teats.
A-judicial investigation will afso be insti
tuted, the result of which we hope will prove
the present suspicions to be unfounded, and
justify the conclusion of the Romans that
parricide was- an impossibility.— Galena
