Tbe fora* of United His tea troops is entirely inadequate to patrol and protect tbe extensive boundary.

McPheetere. and Bobert Allas. _ U'sstio in Cniao* cv a InoMonvs—A yeaog loestlo ran ihr engine “Gonrdin” on the South Carolina Kstlroed the other day, and give it snob n turn as it never had before. Tbo boy knew something scoot engines, and, when nobody was looking, jumped aboard the “Goar- •lie,” open'd tbe throttle-valve as wide na pos sible, and then went down tbo ringing grooves like lightning, lie blew the whletlo at each crossing, knocked over one or two oars, and only stopped wbon his engine gave on!, and 1 oiling np prepentlTely to raking e new start. He was not captured, for he had tbo demon of speed In him, and mado for tbe woods, beyond ell endeavor of sane man lo etch him. Tu following eurioos epeoimen of Jspsnoso English was received by the superintendent of e San Frsnoiseo street railroad from a gentle- Mr. Davie* Historical Society Speech, which fs construed by some of the leading Bad- leal paper*of tbe North aa a declaration of ua di ing war against tbe dominant Slates, pleases those people mightily, They here not read anything ftr a long time which appear* to do than so couch good. 01 course, a* the “friends and defenders of the Union per excellence" they feel a great deal or inusard regret at anything which indicate* the perpetuity of disunion sentiments amd longings in eight millions of white people of the United States. Of oonrte they are bound to feel regret, or oonfea3 themselves ahameless hypocrites, who are merely trading in Union sentiments end don’t like to have them too common no ae to impair the market. But candor oompels m to say that if they feel any grief, they bide it completely. They rejoloe over their Interpretations of Ur. Davis’ speech “ae one who findeth great spoil.” They prooced to argue at length that these are the true sentiments not alone of Ur. Davie, bnt of every Southern man, women and child, negroes alone excepted, and all tbe telk’of newspapers and pnbllo men of tbe South that they ere wil ling to live quietly and peaceably under lb* lews end government of the Union Is arrant hypoc risy. Ur. Davis tells the truth and ell the rest ere lien. Now a man believes just what ho wants to believe. These peddlers in Unionism want to believe that every Southern white man is hoe tile lo its existence—why! Because they hare need that opinion to fill their own pockets, and they hope to use it for that purpose a good wbilo longer. If the; really cared for tbe Urn ion Ihry would be slow in accepting any one man’s testimony egalnst tbe ooncnrrent voice of pnbiio prints, legislatures and conrentlone. The proposition wonld seem preposterous. But wishing to believe, end wishing their party end their readers to believe tbit the Federal Union will be perpetually menaced, down to tho end of lime, by the Southern whites, and therefore it wilt be necessary to repress the people and keep them under a qxsel military domination, they wonld aooept any one man’s testimony against tbo voioe of tho people. And this illustrates the true spirit of that corrupt and selfish party. They would gladly redoes tbe Union party down to the ten thou sand leaders end fuglemen, if they could safely do it, end then divide the spoils per ospltum. When it corass to dividing tbe spoils tbe fewer tbe Union men tho bolter and the heavier tbe dividends. The war for the Union now has taken the form of Treasury grab. THE GEORGIA FBEH. A Hob or Hsu ok tbk Bsupsoe. — Tbe Memphis Appeal thus reports some remarks made at Grenada by Ham Carter, a Mississippi negro loader: “It happens," said Ham, “that yon, not we, must succumb. You may not like it, bnt there is no help for you. We havo the nnmbers, and do not propose to yield an inch. Yon may think this Bsdioal, half negro, half carpet-bag mongrel government, as yon call it, insufferable. It will become more and more intolerable to yon. Yon mast odneate all these colored people. We make you pay now for four mouths* schooling for our children; yon shall pay for nine months' per annum. You mast stand aside, too, and be satisfied to see us msnage sll tho affairs of tho county and State. You don't like it I see you don’t," continued 11am, “and if you can't bear it and ean't get into that new State of beatitude you were fix ing np at Jaekson, Tennessee, a few days ago, let me advise yon, young man, let me urge yon affeotionately—go west” And aa another illustration of tbe prliry of conciliating tbo o>operation of tbe negroes,” tsbo tbe following from the Bicbmond Whig: A leading Virginian statesman, who to day Andrew Hammett was found guilty of *ha murder of Mr. Boekmore in Wilton Superior Court on Thursday, and on a recommendation to mercy by tbe jury was sentenced to the peni tentiary for life. Mas. Flobxxcz Thousob, of Midiaon, died suddenly of heart disease at Covington, on Thnndsy. On Tuesday night Ml T. B. Couch, proprietor of the hotel at Kingston, died of in flammation of the bowels.

In addi tion to this branch of trade, the provision bosi- neaa there baa become in enormone item in the commercial statistics of the State. Maoon has everything in her favor. A united community of business men, a wide and prolifio field to work in, end unsurpassed facilities are ergu- menta In favor of Macon which cannot be set at naught by envious rivals. Tnz Savannah Chamber of Commerce, on Wednesday, adopted the resolutions of the Maoon Board of Trade, which, in cnbatenoe, pledgee the former body lo tbe support and en couragement of a system of direct trade be tween Savannas end Liverpool on a permanent basis.

Tax Noetu Gzoeqia Oottob Clop.—The CartertersTille Standard end Express says The cotton crop in this section is fine in ap. p-eranco—too fice in onr judgment, for the weed Is so luxuriant and large that it will be an acoident if half of the bolls will open. It al ready 00vers the ground completely, and effect- ualiy exoludes the sun and air from tbo mass of fruit on the lower limbs; and failure ini dis appointment we fear will be tbe result, if some measures are not adopted to let in the sun and air. Tnc average Liwreneoville man improves the shining hoars by pitying marbles until that ex citing sport palls on his appetite, and “then whets off with a ehunck of a fight,” as the Her ald vigorously phrases it. A revival in the Methodist Church at Dawson is going on with unabated interest, and daily additions are being made to its membership. Govs&bobs Burrs and Josbson.—Under this head, tbe Colnmbus Sun takes the following extraordinary view of tbo meaning of cx Gov. Johnson’s last letter: close of tho last canvass, to satisfy hiunelf, approaobed a leading old colored mao, whom be bad known from boyhood, with the follow ing toqulry: ‘Uncle Jseob, toll me candidly why did yon all go for Grant as against Greeley, yonr life-long friend?’ Uncle Jsoob, hesitating awhile—’Because you white people went for him.' White Virginian—'Suppose we bad all gone for Grant, what then?’ Uncle Jaoob, promptly—‘then master, wo would have gone for Greeley.’ And yet it Is the white man cf Virginia who draw the line of oolor.” Old Corruption Cameron on Grant and tbo Tiiirtl Term Qncttlone Bern* Batter* etc# A Herald correspondent who bw been spend ing a few days at Bedford Spring*, Pa., found old Corruption Cameron there »nd straightway, after the msnnsr of his kind, prooeeded to in terview him. In Tepiy to a question what he though of the third term Agitation, old Corrup tion said: While a third term is possible I cannot think it probable. I sgreo with the Herald in the prin ciple it makes, that no matter bow good and pa- triotio a President may be the oonititntion should not be so framed as to make the people depend on the magnanimity or patriotism of any to Speln, who wanted to irqnlra into the ** posiibUtty or introdnoiog street cars in Yeddo: "Sir, I heard that yon were railroad oumpany.

Bnt I cannot think it possible that Grant wants another term. He has often ex pressed to me a wish to get bsok to his farm— away from tho cares of office, where he might enjoy peace and qnietneae for the remainder of his life. Hie amoition has been satisfied.

Th«°.J>» has been prudent in his investments, which wtU give him an ample competenoe to live on. No, I cannot believe that he will be a candidate for a third term; and ae for the office-holders around him forcing and flattering him into running again, I don't fear, aa he is not the soon to be moved by either force or flattery; and yet we oannot ted what may happen.

Em aejs the office holders of Alachua county have gone to Masaa- chrsetts to spend the summer.

Tn Courier.!onrnalaays it doe* not question the statement of the Albany Journal, tbit Senator Conkling were OMaf J oatiee he would have the pride and the ambition to rank him aelf with Jay and Marahall, bnt the denee of is he wonld not have the brain*. ,uJHruinruU-ta«i. toe xcCvm muo vi c uu.c*. nor Johnson will call cut a reply from Gov. Smith, and that tbo unpleasant controversy be tween tbcm will be resumed. We hope not, and really we do not eee any oocaaion for it. We do not understand er-Governor J. aa mak ing any charge of deception against Governor Smith, and until be daea ao, we think that the Governor may very properly let the oorre- spondenoo cease. The ex-Governor’a denial that he intended in hie previona letter to acquit Governor 8. of a “rumored’’ charge of decep tion towards himself, does not amount to an affirmance or endorsement of that charge, and It seems to na that the Governor wonld be over- eeuaitive so to aanstrne it. It strikes ns that onr cotemporary has a very carious idea of the amount of seisibillty neo- eatary to render a man amenable to tho charge of being “overaentltive." Who Shall wx Sikd to thi Llqiblxtdee ?— Tbe Athens Watchman has this under the above bead: A gentleman informed us the other day, that after listening to Governor Smith’s admirable address. In which, among other things, he urged the people to send their best men to the Legia* latnre, he asked that gentleman privately how are the people to know who are their beat mvn ? The Governor, in anbstanoe, replied: Send those who do not want to go—men who have bnalne«* of their own to look after. Yon may rest well assured that the man who ia moat anx ions to go is preoisely the man who ought not to be eleoted. Wo hope tho people will act on this sound and sensible advice when a no’her election shall be held. The Governor ia right. The man most anxious to go ia preoisely the one who onght not to ba Rent. But how are yon going to find that out? The men who aro keenest lo hold office gen erally protest almost with tears in their eyes that they don’t wsnt it—that they are “no politicians”— that they have more business to attend to than they know how to get through with—that it wcnld be too great a sacrifloe of their priralo interests, etc. Why Lord bless je, Mr. Governor aad Mr. Watohmau, this not wanting to go is one of tho very commonest tricks of the hungering, thirsting demagogue. We thought yon were bettor posted. Yon mutt find some other recipe for manufacturing a Legislature of “best men.” A warns in the Athens Watchman charges the “city father*’’ of that plaoe with loaning the oity money—whloh tho writer parenthioally and plaintively says has been wrung “from the hard earning* of honest poverty”—to rich speonlators in Angnsta. A bxw use for caterpillar exterminator has been developed in Dougherty county. The ool ored eisters down there mix it with milk for the purpose if getting rid of their fellow worms of the dust. Oottob picking has commenoed in good earn est in tbit section, according to the Albany Central City; which adds that the oatorpillzr is on a terrible rampage in the lower pert of Dongherty oonnty, and that the boll worm hss pnt in an appearanoe. Tax Chronicle end Sentinel says a great deal of waste Is going on in the ice manufsetored in that city, “on account of the wsnt of con sumption.” Thx Columbus Guards paraded for the first time ainoe their reorganization on Wednesday with forty-four rank and file.

Jacob Bthbix, the Swiss living in Columbus whose attempt to commit snioide on the IGlh of July by swallowing two ounces of ieedenum we noted at the time, tried it again on Wednesday by shooting into the ride of hlshead just behind his eyes. He is not seriously hurt. Will it Pat to o> Wot?—The Gwinnett Herald asks and answers this question aa fol lows: . We met a yonng men about a weak sines en hie return from Texas. Ha informed na that J, e TU raised in Gwinnett, but about two years rinoe like a great many of the young men of the country, got en idea that he must go Wait in order to make a Using. TJe reports from there had led him to believe that it w*a a land flowing with “milk and honey. He aeoord- ins lett the “old worn ont field** of Georgia, and after looking around, settled down in Texae. After two jeon straggling wltt tho chill* aim th* climate of that “Eldorado, he peeks hi* baggage end returns to the lend of hie nativity.

Tho loss of the steamship Atlantie, of the White [Star line, and the City of Washington, of tbe Inman lme, both of which ran into shallow water end foundered on the rocks, hss set inventive minds to thinking whether some device oonld not be mado to prevent such acci dents in the fotn’e. One inventor, Mr. E. D. Gird, of Syracuse, N. Y., has a very simple plan which bu already attracted the attention of eome of tbe steamship owners. This plan is based on the law of apeeifio gravity, which makes the pressure exerted by a column of water twenty fathoms deep end much greater, of coarse, then that exerted by a column only four or five fathoms In depth. Tho apparatus oonslsta of abollow lino or flexible tube, at the lower end of which is a weight and an air- chamber, with a pisiou, upon the outer surface of which the pressure is received. The upper end of this tabs is attached to tbo ship in tbe engine room, and a pre;.snre-gnage, resembling an “aneroid” barometer, indicates constantly tbe depth at which the weight is depending with as much accuraoy, it ia claimed, as the steam guage indicates the pressure on the boiler. As the vessel nears land tbe air-cham ber comes towards the scrfaoe, the pressure be comes less, and the resnlt is told by the guage, which ia constantly beforo the eyes of tbe en gineer. An alarm bell is also attached to the gauge, so that in case the vessel enters very shallow water the signal of danger is at ones sounded. The inventor says that a gauge can also be plaoed in the captain's room, and claims, furthermore, that tbe same apparatus oan be made to iudioato tbe bpeed of tho vessel. Tito Nlacara Tragedy—An Appalling Tragedy. Mack’s Niagara Letter to tbe St. Louis Democrat] I have bad the curiosity to inquire a good deal about the young people who went over the falls in a host about six weeks ego. The trag edy hss boeH well written and universally read— how a young man, with his intended bride and her brother, hired a boat a few miles above, and, in attempting a pleasure ride, were car ried into the current and swiftly dashed over the falls. I yesterday visited tbe place where the boat was hired, and talked with many who were familiar .with all the inoidents of the aad happening. I was astonished to hear them all agree that on the part of tbe prinoipal aotor in tbe maltor, it vn h coo cf deliberate eni- cide. He bad ran away frem home with his father's money, and was shout to make a for bidden marriage. Ha had got his license, and was to have been married that afternoon. He proposed a boat ride, to whiob his intended bride and her brother contented. He hired the boat in what ia called Chippewa creek, wbioh emptie* into the Niagara liver, abont two miles above the falls. Ho was warned of the danger, ons onrrent in tho middle of the river, and said be had no intention of going into it, hot pur posed to stay in tbe oreek, or oonfiae himself to tbe quiet water along tbo shore of tbe nver. He pulled directly for the middle of the stream, which he knew to be inevitable death, and when the strong onrrent struok the boar, and headed her for the rapids and the falls, he made no effort to avert his fate. A young xnan who saw it all aBsnred me yesterday tbst it was clsar oaae of intentional destruction—and that after the strong current had been reaoh- thtre wns still Fulvatiuu possible in steering from tbe shore before she had strnck tbe rapids, but that no effort of the kind was — J t -»*♦*«jf’—rriTr-i "o current to drif: the in a boat ride over aav-,., - __ . 8... ri ._ nver.

There was no possible destination for tho man in tho direc tion in which he was rowing—aoross tho xiver, and he certainly cannot have hoped to row aoross that swift currant and bark again un harmed. Haring gitbered all the facta that were attainable in the exact locality of the trag edy, X am oonvinced that tbo theory of design is more planr.ble than the theory of accident. Ibe Miserere nt »l.

The German peaiua camo to steal tho secrets of too Lilin genius in the eternal war between both raoc*. No pen can d» scribe the solemnity the Miserere! The night advances. The Basilica is in darknera. Her altars un covered. Through the open arches Ultra pene trates the uncertain light of dawn, which seems to deepen the dark shadows. The latt taper of the tenebrario ia hidden behind the altar. The oatbedral resembles an immense mausoleum, with the faint gleaming of funeral torches in the distance. The music of the Mis erere ia not instrumental. It is a anbiimo choir admirably combined. Now it oomes like tbe far-off roar of the tempest, aa the vibration of the wind upon the ruins or among the cypresses of tombs; again, like a lamentation from the depths of the earth, or a moaning of heaven's angels breaking into sobs and corrowfnl weep ing. The marble statnes, gigantie and of daz zling whitenes, are not completely hidlen by the darkness, but appear like the spirits of past ages coming ont the sepnlohres and loosing the shroud to join the intonation of this canticle of despair. The whole church is agitated, and vi brates a* if word* of horror were arising from tbe stone*. This profound and sublime lament, this mourning of bitterners dying away into airy circles, penetrates tbe heart by the intensity of its sadness; it is tbe TOice of Borne supplicating Heaven from her load of ashes, ae if under her aackoloth she writhed in her death agony. To weep tiros, to lament ae the prophets of old by the back' of tha Euphrates, or among ths scattered stones of tbe Temple, to sigh ts this anbiimo cadence, be comes a city whole eternal sorrow baa not marred bar eternal beauty. Thus she ia eu slaved. David alone can be her poet. Her oantiele ia majestio and nnequaled. Borne! Borne 1 thou art grand, tbon nrt immortal even in thy desperation and abandonment! The hnman heart shall be tby eternal altar, although the faith that has beeu tby prsitige shall pen ish, aa the oocqusata that made tby greatness have departed! None can rob thee of thy God- given immortality, which tby pontiffs have sns- atained, and which tby artists will forever pre serve. The Badieal pro lent. President of the Utailed states Senate. Tbe Chioago Times has the following pen photograph of the Hon. Matt Carpenter, one of tha honorable Senators from Wisconsin, and if Grant and Wilson shonld die, the xnan who wonld preeide at the White House. It’a a lively picture for the Yonng Men’t Christian Associa tion and other trooly loyl and piotts people of the Badieal persuasion to oon template: An illustrious visitor shook the dost of the Garden City from off his feet on yesterday. He left for the happy hunting ground* of the grass- grown streets of Milwaukee, and took with him no regrets from the inhabitants of Chicago. He passed through the oity, as one-third of the travellers in thia world do, only to admire its beauties and marvel at its unparalleled pro greas; he left it, hurriedly, for the oily’s good, illustrious and infamous at onoe; the incarna tion of the seven deadly sins; the third in sno- oeasion to the throne of the United States; and the chief of sinners. A compound of cuticle, bone, and muscle; a mixture of wit; sot de- banohee, and gambler; the third oemmoner in the realm, and more oommoa than any; wearing the livery of society, and work ing in the interests of the devil. He registered himself, in a bold hind, as “Matt H. Carpenter, Milwaukee,” and was not re quired to pay in advanos. Bnt then ha brought uinch luggage, and his back-pay scrip was not all nsed np in haek fares at Long Branch. Matt Carpenter ia a pnblio man, a good deal in th* eame way that many a brazen huzzy is a public woman. He la public property, aa muoh ao aa the lowest Cyprian. He quotes scripture freely, and is strong on the nse of dash words; bnt Ids researches in the holy word never got beyond the recital of the doings cf Susannah and the elders, and the way the weak-kneed nsaimist went for the gorgeooa blonde, Mrs. Uriah. At odd times be goes to tbe play, bnt is very even in hia attendance on the opera bonffc. The ballet, he thinks, is “ devilish good,” and whisky punches the care for all ills. He is a great drinkor, and from hia early days consecrated himself to the bottle. He narrow ly escaped death onoe by refusing to relinquish his hold on a demijon of bonrbon, and was ever after under Uie control of democratic ideas. He made a powerful constitutional speech oo oue occasion, and lay around help lessly drunk for days on another. His hair is fluffy and hia wit weak, bnt his back ia as broad as the road that leads to destruction, and his red orba twinkle under heavy eyebrows, as did the light in the burning bush thst soared the first geologist. Matt ia held in high respect by absent friends, and is damned by moat of those who oome near him. He is magnetlo in his attraction, and will lie ton missionary colleotor and give buttons to n blind disciple with as easy nonobalanoe aa he reoeivea back pay cr preaohes a temperance leetnre. His ability as a poker player wonld stamp him aa one of the pasteboard nobility, and the way he pnllb in the Jack in “seven-up” is prims facie evidence of hia relationship to the great prototype of knaves. PUBLIC SALE GRANDEST SCHEME EVER KNOWN! It. D , a distinguished I’reach advocate, was recently condaoting a suit for separation brought by a woman against bsr husband. Tbe counsel for the latter having exhausted his stock cf arguments, proceeded to read to the court a number of letters written by his client to the plaintiff before their marriage, copies of which hid previously been served upon his opponent “The oourt shall de termine,” fce oiled, “whather the writer of let ters glowing with so pure and tender a £tme of love could be otptble of commuting the enormities charged against him.” M. D., quietly placed an open volume upon tbe Judge’s desk, observing aa his opponent began to read, “The court would perhaps like to fol low the text.” The letters hid been stolen from Bonsseaa’* “Ncuvelle Heloise.” Another Application lo Caterpillars. The Tallahassee Floridian of last Taesday suggests another dose for tho oo'.ton caterpillar in the following: Ksbocebz Oil.—Experiments havebeen mado in this oonnty upon the caterpillar with kero sene oil, and it is found to do splendidly, at least for tbe time. Tbe worms keel over as readily and completely as with the Paris Green or Arsenio, and it seems that it is nothing but tbe smell of tbe oil which kills them. At least so say thoso who havo tried it. Tha oil oan be diluted so aa to make oue gallon do for an aore of cotton, which rednoes the oost to something like 20 or 25 cents an aore. It ia only necessary to threw in a little lime or other alkali to make tbe oil mix with the water, and yon have the thing acmplete. With the oil remidy, the Paris Green, Ar aenio and other com pounds which will no donbt bo disoovered, we think it ia sife to prediot that the day or the caterpillar haa past and the peat will hereafter be numbered among tbe many terrible ev.ls which have at different periods enrstd tbe race and blighted the labors of man. Point Cleab Luck.—A correspondent of the Mobile Bsglater tantalizes up country people with a report of an am&tenr marooning expedi tion from Point Clear: And such luck aa they had 1 What a 1st of iPL 1 .titi n /L thir.Ji ibyv u heoA'rbr J rvhoreu twnU atingaree*. Hungry and tired they soon turned homewards, well laden in baskets, there to lay aside their fisher gtrb and pnt on oivitized suits. Tueue is a town in Kennebeo ocuoty, Miioo, whore one man holds the offiio of Grand Master of tho Grand Lodge of Masons, Noble Grand of an Odd Fellows’ Lodge, President of a Yonng Men’s Christian Association, Superin tendent of three Sunday-schools, Justice of the Peace, and foreman of a jury, besides holding official position in three distinct Temperance organizations, and attending to hia regular business aa an insurance agent. That now ia the eoxt of man to play a hnrdy-gnrdy with one hand and a fiddle with tho other, a bag pipe wilh hia elbow, and a brass dram with one foot, while he whistled an aooompani ment and nsed hia spare foot to kiok a dog, and heid a contribution box on hia knee. And yet oxolaims the Tribune, they say business ia dull iu Maine and no ships n-building. A Trade-Union Sample. Tne strike of sixty men in a single rolling- mill in Ghioago, says the Commercial Adverti ser, a few days ago, threw fifteen hundred men ont of employment. This may havo been fan to the sixty, but It was very hard upon the re maining fourteen hundred and forty. All be longed to a Trade-UnioD, and when the s-xty quarrelled with their employers on a question of ten cants’ pav, the others had to “go ont,” or be tabooed and persecuted. It was a signal illustration of tbo beauties of tho Trade Union system. The rebellions sixty were finally beaten, and returned to their work, but, in tho interval, the fourteen hundred and forty stood unwillingly idle, while their families wanted bread. That is to say, oounting the usual average of five persona to a family, more than seven thousand persons were left to suffer while the sixty strikers fought ont ths battle with the masters. The Chioago Inter Oosan says this Union of the iron-wotkers “is one of the strongest organizttions of its charaoter in the count'V, being seoond only to the Typo graphical Union in capability to enforce iu or ders.” The injustice and tyranny of the whole system ia exhibited in a very strong light in this instance. Thx Floeida Oottob Chop.—The Floridian of the 19th says: The caterpillar, wo believe, remains abont in tfafu quo. Several planters have been eaten entirely ont, and many others are apt to be. Tbe crop, it is thought, will turn out mnoh bet tor than last year, though nothing like it prom ised a ehoit time ainee. Three or fonr weeka ago, the prospec: for a largo erop was perhaps finer than any year since the snrrender. A very large quantity of improved seed was planted, and tha erop had been well cultivated and was fruiting finely; but alaa for human calculations man proposed, but the caterpillar has dia- posed almost aa fully aa usual. There seems to be no doubt that the “poison business” will pay, and next year the planters will take time bv the forelock and get the start of the worm. Bnt query—how many of us will go under between now and then? Doss Putt describes tbe British House of Peers as “a body of men exceedingly qaiet and unpretending in manner, not remarkably strik ing in countenance, and to badly dressed that it seemed an affectation.” A local geologist of Terre Haute says thst any person having a taste for gold mining can clear from forty to sixty cents a day almost any- where in Vigo county, Ind.
