THE CENTRAL GEORGIAN SAH’Ij B. CRAFTOU, COUNTY PRINTER. California. News. of SANDERSYILLE, GEORGIA TUESDAY IfOV. 9, ;1852. N 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 ly successful! in the exercise of his duties 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 ness men of San Francisco, The North Carolina has arrived from China,- bringing news as late as July 20; The Istest dates from Oregon are to the 18th inst. A newspaper has been started st Puget SouDd, called the Columbian.— Coal has been discovered in large quantities *t Puget Sound; 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 •fettled. 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. The success of our ships will be known within .-he next ihirty days, and till then we look /or no material alteration in prices. For he sperm per schooner Fame, recently ar h-ed. $ L 15 has been offered, and refused. ; olar is selling at 05e for Crude ; $1 io to ‘I 25 for manufactured. 150 bbls elephant SI arrived on Tuesday.

St. Mary’s Money In bills under $5 Will be received' in pay ment of demands due this office. Frost.—-After several days of extremely warm weather, wo were visited on Sunday morning with rain, and y esterday morning considerable frost was seen in this vicinity. 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 ky, and Vermont, were considered do ubt- ful.

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 Orleans.

Our readers will find in- another part o 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 an independent journal, and devoted; to- the 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 COMMERCIAL. COTTON.

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.

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.
