Mr. Patick O’Donohue, one of the Irish pat riots and exiles in Australia, who escaped and arrived in San Francisco on the 22d of June and who reached New York on Monday, in the steamship Northern Light, has declared his in tention ot becomig a citizen of the United States, and went through the usual forms at San Fran cisco on the 23d ult. He has published a full and very graphic account of his adventures in \ an Dieman’s Land, and the trials incident to his escape, from which we condense the follow ing facts: It appears that Sir William Dennison, the Colonial Governor, had several times ordered his arrest and imprisonment, and exercised to wards him petty acts of tyranny and outrage, until life became almost insupportable. From the moment of the last arrest and imprisonment, Mr. O’Donohue determined, if pos&'ble, to effect his escape; and, on the 6th of November last, returned from Port Arthur to Launceston, and communicated his intentions to his trusty friend, G. D. They both, after a long interview, con cluded that he stood before God and man ab solved from the moral and honorable responsi bility originally implied and understood by the w parole” entered into by himself and the other State prisoners, and. without further hesitation, his escape was fixed upon. Mr. O Donohue im mediately drew up a statement of facts, touching the illegal and oppressive conduct of the gov ernment. and placed it in the hands of a mem ber of the Legislative Council at Melbourne, to be published after his departure, in order to justi fy his determination to escape. As none but English vessels trade with the town of Laun ceston, Mr. G. D. started in a steamer for Mel bourne, to make arrangements for the transit of Mr. O’Donohue from thence to some port free from English authority. G. D in a few days, effected a passage for him with the captain ol the Earl of Lincoln, bound for Callao, of which he was informed by a letter brought by Mr O’N., of Sydney, and one ot the Y. Y. steam line. His subsequent hopes and fears—succes ses and disappointments—adventures and hair breadth scapes—Mr O’Donohue, himself nar rates as follows: By recent colonial statutes, severe penalties, by fine and imprisonment, were adjudged against all captains and officers of ships, or others, aid ing or assisting in the escape of prisoners of the Crown from Van Dieman’s Land. By a recent order of Sir Wm. Dennison, an imprisonment of five years, and hard labor in a stone quarry in the chain gangs of Port Arthur, loaded day and night with thirty-six pounds of irons, hung sus pended over me in the event of being detected in an attempt to escape.—This I viewed as worse than a sentence of death; and I was even liable to be hanged if found armed, in my at tempt at escape ; hence, with myself and poor O’N., the effort I was about to make involved loss of liberty, life or death ; but this nob'e spe cimen of an Irishman never quailed before the impending danger. I stated to him my inten tion, and concealed none ot the dangers which might result from failure. He shed burning tears of enthusiastic fervor, while he hung upon me, and said, “ that his wife had long ago con jured him to release me from theStyrant Denni son, or to lose his life and property in attempt ing itand he said that he was then resolved to do her bidding. It was hastily agreed that I should meet him that evening at the house of Mr. G , and there change my dress, and accompany him on board at eight o clock that night. I hastened to my lodgings at the house of my worthy friend, Mr. K., of Landhill, and packed up my wardrobe, which was very scantily supplied; still, scanty, though it was, I was obliged to leave it and sixty volumes of books behind me. O’N., and I met at Mr. G s house at 8 o’clock. I put on a sailor's jacket, and we walked at a quick pace to the Y. Y. steamer; he took me on board and placed me in his own berth, from which he re moved me at daybreak next morning, to the platform of the engine room. At 7 o’clock he removed me thence to the furnace room, and placed me in a stove, which he locked upon me. 1 just fitted into it like a monster pie in an oven, and certainly resembled a large black, be greased bedaubed animal about to undergo the process of baking. I had been in this domicile for tne space of an hour, when O’N. unlocked the door of it, and with consternation pictured in his face, he stated that Mr. S. the other of the ship, had consulted with him, and that they arrived at the conclusion I would be suffocated if I remained in the stove, and that as the po lice were about to commence their customary search, I must go ashore. This was a most ap palling announcement. It was the 9th De cember, my friend D. had his arrangements made in Melbourne for my reception and ship ment from thence; my own hopes were buoyed up to the highest pitch of excitement—and all thus unexpectedly frustrated! There was no time, however, to be lost, as the police were prowling about; Ibid poor O’N. good morning, and stepped on the wharf. Pondering at what had just occurred, and viewing my grotesque ap pearance in a sailor’s uniform, scented with tar and grease, as I made my way through the black slums, I burst into loud laughter! But what gloom, despondency and sorrow pressed upon me a little afterwards, as I beheld the ves sel with her stearn up, gliding down the Ta mer ! I now anxiously looked forward to the return of D. from Melbourne, and on the 17th December the Y. Y. again bore up the river; and on hastening to the quay, I found my friend coming ashore in a boat; I also saw O’N. busy about the deck. D. and I had a short interview and met by appointment that evening. We then arranged to see O’N. next day, and accordingly met him, when atter a brief conversation, it was resolved that I should again go on board the steamer at 8 o clock on Sunday night, as 9 o’clock on Monday evening, the 20th December, was fixed upon for the vessel sailing for Mel bourne ; and live or die, I should proceed in her. On, Sunday, the 18th, I had three interviews with G. E ; and at 8 o’clock he accompanied me to the steamer, when O’N. placed me in his berth, where I lay until 4 o’clock, and was then removed to the engine-room ; and at half past 7 o’clock O’N. led me through the furnace room to the receptacle used for holding the coals consumed by the furnaces. It was adjoining the furnaces, but partitioned off with sheet iron. In the centre of this was an aperture, or trap-door, which opened into a cavity underneath. This cavity, surrounded everywhere wit i burning flames, was selected as the apartment that I was to occupy in making my exit from the per fidious Dennison. The chances were gloomy in the ex reme. The danger to me of suffocation • was too apparent to poor O’N. whilst, with quivering lips, he bid me enter; for, “ There be things which we must dream and dare And calculate ere thought be half aware •” ’ and wfthout further reflection I pushed forward i nto the first chamber on hands and feet. O’N. having forced the trap door, he launched me in to the cavern beneath it. He then closed the trapdoor, and directly filled the entire space with coals. I was thus ensconced in a compart ment about seven feet in length, three in width, andl two in height; and by its formation I was obliged to lie in a recumbent posture. It being lined on all sides with sheet iron, when the fur naces came to blaze in full strength, the heat and want of air made the den very insupportahle. I dreaded instant death by suffocation or apo plexy. The ordeal, too. was terribly tedious. After about an hour, O’N. dreading fatal conse- Suences, caused water to be pumped into my ungeon by means of an opening in the ship’s keel. I was then placed between the two great elements, fire and water —saturated from head to foot, with water, while fire raged all around me. The police search occupied two hours, after which O’N. opened the trap door, and helpen me into the coal recess, from whence he brought me to the engine-room. I was greatly exhausted, but soon rallied. Thus ended the police seach at Launceston ; but, on reaching George’s Town Heads, being 40 miles down the river, O’N, informed me that I should again conceal myself in the same place that I had just been in, as the search in George’s Town for prisoners was even more rigorous than at Launceston. The anticipation of the second life or death ordeal made me very uncomfortable, and I looked forward to it with much anxiety. Having arrived at George’s Town I was again removed to the fiery dungeon, where I was kept three Lours, while search was made ; and my escape was indeed very narrow, for the place set apart for coal over my head was searched closely by the police constables. On releasing me from this purgatorial recess a second time, I was considerably weakened. On au ung my head through the trap-door, it closed rim A + a ‘j U^>on me > an< * a hurried effort of poor u iX . to disentangle me, I narrowly escaped. On regaining the engine-room, this fine Irishman uwu ? v , er 106I 06 a fond parent, as he cried out, What do I care, now that you are free ?” I was now' again placed in O’N.’s berth, where I remained from Monday evening till Wednes day at noon, when we reached Melbourne wharf. On arriving at Williamstown harbor, the previ ous night, there was a strict police search ; but I lay undiscovered in my berth. Immediately on casting anchor at Melbourne, on Wednesday, the 22d of December, Messrs. J. L., B. and D. three gentlemen who were aware of my contem plated escape, came aborad ; and it was deter mined I should walk ashore just as I was dressed, in an old blue trowsers and checked shirt, black and greasy, and haggard as any fireman could look. The quay was crowded with people, and amongst them a large sprinkling of police and detectives, horse and foot. My friends stepped ashore, and carelessly walked on. I followed in their steps, and in a few minutes they entered a friend’s house, where I also entered. After having had a little refreshment, my friends pro cured a vehicle drawn by a fine spirited horse ; and myself and D.?B. and L. drove off at a gal Jant rate to the mansion of Mr. Michael L , the brother-in-law of Mr. 8., about foui miles be yond Melbourne. My friends returned to Melbourne, and I re maine'd at Mr. L’s during Wednesday night, the entire of Thursday and Thursday night; and on Friday morning, the 24 of December, Mr. P. C. and Mr. Fitz, of Melbourne, having visited and consulted with me on the previous evening, it was deemed advisable, for my better security, to remove a long distance from Melbourne, to a se cluded and remote part of the forest bordering on the sea-shore. A part of Port Philip headland, on one of the solitary beaches of Hobson’s bay, was therefore selected as my rendezvous for the present. Accordingly, at six o’clock on the morning of Friday, the 24th, an Irishman named Bill D. was chosen as my guide, and having been presented by Messrs. C. and Fitz with two brace of pistols and a supply of ammunition, I took leave of my generous hostess, her beautiful sister, Miss Grace, Mr. L., Mr. C. and Fitz; and mounted, armed, and accompanied by Bill D., entered up on my journey. The throng of pleasurable emotions which that morning gladdened my soul—the feeling of triumph at having, so far, baffled the ruthless Dennison—the enthusiastic and fond regard manifested towards me by the hospitable inhabitants of Melbourne—the cheer ing prospect before me of final success in effect ing my escape, and the consequent hope of be ing restored to the home of my love, and to a land of liberty—and these heart-stirring reflec tions rushed so impetuously through my brain, that I was almost bewidered with joyous ex citement. But yesterday, and I was the fettered slave of the veriest wretch that England com prises in her hideous category of petty tyrants— “ Such a long power and overgored success Concentrates in all that’s merciless.” And to-day, all but a manumised freeman ! The thought overwhelmed me with delight. After many adventures and hair-breadth es capes, he succeeds in hiring the captain of the small cutter Oberon, then about to sail to the South Seas for tortoise shells, to convey him to Tahiti, that island being under the protectorate of the French. They sailed Tuesday, Bth Feb ruary, and reached Tahiti the 3d of April. Du ring the last thee days of the voyage they suf fered much for want of water, until relieved on the third day by the commander of the barque Sarah Hooper, an American vessel, bound from San Francisco to Sydney. Upon landing, O’Donohue continues: “I went ashore, and waited on Capt. Kelly, the American Consulate, at his private residence. I stated to him the particular circumstances in which I was placed—satisfied him of my identity as one of the Irish rebels ot 1848—and requested that he would afford me the protection of the American flag. He received me with great uijianity, and without hesitation placed me under the protec tion of his flag, and of the American government so far as he was empowered to do so by virtue of his office. He informed me that there was a British Consul, Air. Miller, residing at Tahiti, and, to avoid collision, he advised that I should remain incognito, during my stay at Tahiti. I had, since leaving Van Dieman’s land, as sumed the tubsiquent of John Thompson, and Capt. Kelly now deemed it prudent that I should continue to use my assumed name. There were thirteen vessels lying at anchor, two or three bound for American ports, byway of Cape Horn—but none of them likely to sail for some months, and Capt. Kelly informed me that it was necessary I should obtain a passport from the French Commissarat of Police, authorising me to remain ashore. He accordingly wrote a lettei to the proper authorities on my behalf, and making himself responsible for me, upon the presentation of which I was furnished with the necessary passport. Capt. Kelly apologized for not being able to accomodate me at bis establish ment during my stay at Tahiti, as every room was occupied by American captains of vessels in harbor; however, he sent for the proprietor of the Washington Hotel, and gave me in charge to him, with strict injunctions to make me comfor table. This courteous and kind reception by the representative of the American government, inspired me with new confidence. It was now one hundred and five days since I escaped from Launceston, during which period I had suffered great privations, and the intense heat of the climate of Tahiti soon produced a sensible change for the worse in my general health ; languor, extreme debility and loss of appetite rendered me quite prostrated. Besides, my anxiety was no' altogether allayed, because, in the event of the British Consul getting in formation respecting my identity, it was pro bable he would call upon the French Governor of the island to place me under arrest; and, in such case, it was difficult to see w’hat might be the consequence. It is true I had my gallant friend, Capt. Kelly, to shield me; still, the ques tion would in all probability have occupied a good deal of negotiation between England and France, and meanwhile I might have been de tained in custody. These considerations weighed heavily upon me, and I wistfully gazed at every sail that entered the harbor, in the hope of speedy relief. At length the bark Ob’anto, an American ship, Capt. Kendrick, cast her anchor. She was on a trading voyage from San Francisco to the Society Islands, and had most of her cargo of oranges, pigs, goats and cocoa-nuts already on board. She was not five minutes in harbor, when Capt. Kelly sent a confidential gentleman, ! Mr. Adims, on board to secure a passage for me 1 to San Francisco, which he accordingly obtained although the vessel bad still to touch at two other islands to complete her cargo. Capt. Ken- ' drick sailed for one of these islands (Emio) on 1 the 19th April. It was only twenty-five miles distant, and he promised to return forme. Ac cordingly, on Wednesday, the 27th April, he re turned, and I left Tahiti and crossed over with the captain in a whale boat. We sailed in the Otranto from Emio on the 30th of April, and after touching at another island, where we were detained two days, we sailed direct for San Francisco. We were car ried a considerable distance to the westward, and to the leeward of the Sandwich Islands, con sequently our voyage was tedious, calms and head winds having prevailed.

SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 31. FOR GOVERNOR, HON. HERSCHEL V. JOHNSON. Os Baldwin County. Proprietors of Warehouses in this city and Hamburg will please have the Cotton re maining on hand carefully counted for us early to-morrow morning. We publish in another column of this day’s paper, the able communication of “Con stitution,” which a few days since wag refused admission in the Chronicle 8f Sentinel. On what grounds this was done, consistent with the pre sent course of that paper, we are at a loss to de termine. We did think that, inasmuch as the editor seems now to be on hot trail after Free Soilers, he would have paid high for such an ar ticle—inasmuch as every reader will now see that from the evidence furnished by Mr. Web ster himself—he was a Free Soiler worth a thousand of those whom the editor is endeavor ing, with so much zeal, now to make appear such. One of two things certainly will take place when he sees “Constitution” in pxint—either he will refresh the recollections of his readers by showing what were Mr. Webster’s senti ments on this subject, or he will drop the ques tion, and cry enough. Steamer Osprey. We would call the attention of the travelling public to the card of the passengers in the steam, er Osprey, on her recent trip to Philadelphia. The Osprey is a fine sea boat, and since the re duction in the price of passage, has met with good encouragement. Capt. Bennett, we have heard highly spoken of as a commander. Southern Medical and Surgical Journal. The August No. of this interesting Monthly is on our table. It contains four original articles on subjects of interest to the profession, and its usual quantity of extracts and miscellany. It is published monthly in this city by James Mc- Cafferty, and edited by Dr. L. A. Dugas, Pro fessor of Surgery in the Medical College of Georgia. Correction. We stated a few days since that Francis S. Burtow, Esq., had declined the nomination of the Whig convention recently held at Holmes ville, to represent that party in the first Con gressional district. We were led into the error by seeing a letter of Mr. 8., written previously, in which he expressly declined the honor, pre ferring private life. From the signs of the times we think the citizens of that district will grati fy his first desire; at any rate he has our best wishes that such may prove the case. “Drowning Men Catch at Straw*.” We copy the following from the Athens Her ald, of the 28th inst. The editor, who formerly was a kind of Southern Rights whig, (induced no doubt by the Banner taking the Union side of the question) does not relish the “Re-united” holding up Mr. Jenkins to the people of Geor gia for the part he took in enacting the odious Algerine law, which disfranchised a large ma jority of our citizens from exercising the dearest right of a freeman, the choice of his rulers. After making light of the subject, he concludes as fol lows : “The best of the joke is, that their own wit nesses turn against them. Mr. Gardner, editor of the Constitutionalist & Republic, a gentle man who happens to have a soul larger than a grain of mustard-seed, shows the “Algerine law” to be a humbug, and Democrat as he is, acknowledges that he voted for Mr. Jenkins' re-election, notwithstanding he was one of the parties difranchised, so far as the election of Al dermen was concerned, under its operation ! The noble-souled editor deserves much credit for his frankness and candor.” Had the editor of the Herald , a particle of the “whole-souled” that he ogives the editor of this paper credit for, he would have appreciated the motives which influenced Mr. Gardner in writing the paragraph alluded to, as also for his voting for Mr. Jenkins, under the circumstances in which he was at that time place, and; the Herald man should have been thankful for small favors, instead of endeavoring to make poliitcal capital out of it for his candidate for Governor. Another. Under the head “Skies Bright,” we find in the Griffin Union, of the 28th inst., an extract from i a letter said to be “from a source entitled to the highest credit,” which concludes as follows: “I learn that even Col. Gardner, of the Con stitutionalist, has admitted that, if the election were to come on now, Mr. Jenkins’ majority would reach five thousand, but that he hoped a reaction would take place ( before the election.” M. Gardner, the editor of this paper, is ab sent from the State, and will be for a week or two to come, but we venture the assertion, that if he made the above admission, it was to a Whig, one who he thought had a soft place in his head, and would be green enough to commu nicate it to some whig paper. If our whig op j ponents can lay no more flattering unction to j their souls, they will find themselves badly beaten in October next. Sunday Reading. We are not in the habit of filling our paper on Sundays with long sermons. We have Chur ches enough in our city, and able divines, and those disposed to listen to good sermons have every opportunity of doing so. But if our read ers, old and young, will commit to memory, and act up to the five precepts given below, we think it will do them more good than a dozen sermons printed in Sunday papers : Evil Reports. —“ The longer I live,” says a writer, “ the more I feel the importance of ad hereing to the rules I have laid down for myself in relation to such matters : “ 1* To hear as little as possible whatever is to the prejudice of others. “2. To believe nothing of the kind till I am absolutely forced to it. “ 3. Never to drink into the spirit of one who circulates an ill report. 4. Always to moderate, as far as I can, the unkindness which is expressed towards others. “ 5. Always to believe that if the other side were heard, a very different account would be given of the matter.” Judge Starnes. The following is an extract from a letter to the Editor of the JefJFeraonian , and will no doubt, be read with pleasure by the numerous friends of the above named gentleman in this section of the State.

He delivered the opinions of the court in cases which have fallen to his lot, during the past week, with discrimination and clearness, and I believe, to the satisfaction of the entire bar. A gentleman, a scholar, and a jurist, he will prove a worthy successor of the Hon. Hiram Warner. [communication.] Judge Hillyer vs. Mr. Webster. Mr. Gardner : — A short time since, the Chronicle Sentinel published two communica tions, one signed “Forsyth,” and the other “Hamilton,” each giving an account of a politi cal meeting recently held at Cumming, and at tacking Judge Hillyer, for saying there, that Mr. Webster was a Freesoiler ; whereupon I sent that paper a short article, signed “Consti tution,” in support of the Judge’s charge; and in the Daily of the 26th ultimo, in a notice to correspondents, the editor says: “Constitu tion is informed, that we have twice published the speech of Mr. Webster on the Compromise, made on the 7th of March, 1850, and as our readers are presumed to be familiar with it, we cannot consent to occupy our columns with isolated extracts, cut here and there from it, to endeavor to prove him a ‘ Freesoiler .’ It is somewhat remarkable, after making that speech he should have been so vehemently denounced by the Fieesoilers, had he been one.” Now let us see how the case stands with this editor: Ist. He publishes two articles, in which a gentleman is attacked for making an unjust charge, and refuses to publish an article sup porting the truth of the charge made. A beau tiful idea he must have of free discussion. 2nd. He calls the article which he refuses to publish, “isolated extracts, cut here and there,’) referring to but one speech and intending to give an idea of its unfairness, when two speech es are quoted, and the sense fully given ; or at any rate, he does not give the public an op portunity to judge. 3rd. He replies to an article which he re fuses to publish, for he says : “It is somewhat remarkable, &c.” which is a reply , poor though it be, and poor ii is. Any one who is acquaint ed with the political history of the time, knows that the Freesoilers would have, been satisfied with Mr. Webster’s vote, had they thought, like him, that the application of the Wilmot Proviso to Utah and 1\ ew Mexico would have been a re enactment of the will of God; but being dissat isfied with his judgment, not his freesoil sentiments i they denounced his conduct. Probably the Chronicle Sj Sentinel is a little apprehensive for the result, should the people have it proved to them that Charles J. Jenkins suffered his name to be associated with that of a Freesoiler in con nexion with the Vice Presidency. Below I hand you the article for publication : Mr. Editor Your correspondent, “Hamp ton” seems to be indignant at the charge of Freesoilism.made by Judge Hillyer, in his speech at Cumming, against Mr. Webster, and under takes to prove by his vote upon Soule’s amend ment, that the charge is unjust. Now I propose to try Mr. Webster by that vote, and I am sure every reasonable mind will be convinced that he was a Freesoiler, at heart , and hence untrust worthy. The vote alluded to, unexplained by what was said at the time, would seem to make out a case as to his soundness upon this subject, and that he had the moral courage and patriotism to do what was right, fearless of opposition at home, and regardless of the opinion of others; such, however, was not the fact, and I will now pro ceed to prove it. In his speech of the 7th of March, 1850, in the Senate, Mr. Webster says: And I will say further, that if a resolution, or a law, were now before us. to provide a ter ritorial government for New Mexico, I would not vote to put any restriction into it whatever. Ihe use of such a prohibition would be idle, as it respects any effect it would have upon the terri~ tory; and I would not take pains to re-affirm an ordinance of nature , nor to re-enact the wiU of GodP h urther on in the same speech, and in the same connexion, he says : “ Wherever there is a particular good to be done; wherever there it a fool of land to be staid back from becoming slave territory ; lam ready to assert the principle of the exclusion of slave ry. I am pledged to it from the year 1837 ; I have been pledged to it again and again ; and I wUI perform those pledges; but I will not do a thing unnecessary, that wounds the feelings of others, or that does disgrace to my own under standing.” In the speech made by Mr. Webster on the 17th of June, 1850, in the Senate, he says : “ I have no more apprehension to-day of the introduction or establishment of African slavery in these territories, than I have of its introduc ion into, and establishment in, -Massachusetts. 77 Further on in this speech, in which it will be recollectedfhe was giving his reasons for voting for Soule’s amendment, he says : And let it be remembered, that I am now shaking ot New Mexico and Utah, and o’her territories acquired from Mexico, and of nothing else. I confine myself to these ; and as to them, say 1 see no occasion to make a provision against slavery now, or to reserve to ourselves A i, of making such provision hereafter.— ~ *• ls res ts °n the most thorough conviction, that under the law of nature, there never can be slavery in these territories Thus it will be seen, that he did not vote for the amendment, because he believed it was right ! for these people to determine the question of) slavery for themselves, but because he didn’t! want to irritate the people of the South, by 1 voting otherwise, when voting as he did, could \ do the Free Soil cause no harm ; and to this mo- J tive his vote is to be ascribed—not to a sense of justice, for had one foot of this territory been so i situated that it might, in his opinion, become slave territory, he assures us ha would have voted otherwise. Had he believed, like Halei Chase, Davis and others, that this territory might become slave territory, he would have voted as they did ; a mere difference of opinion, not of feeling, was the reason he did not. If it be answered that he held the same opinion as to all the territory owned by the United Sta.tes, except that ol I exas, and that he would there fore have extended the same provision to all’, which is as much as the soundest man could have done; I reply, that he was still as much k Free Soiler, at heart, for not robbing us of terri tory, likely to become slave territory, when he [ said we had none such, as that man is a rogue* * at heart, who does not steal my money simply because I have none to steal. I must apologise for even this short letter, but I felt that a word should be said for that stern patriot and honest statesman, Judge Hillyer, and I have therefore trespassed upon, your readers ; much as I dislike to say anyth) ng of the depart* ed, but to praise. Constitution. From a statistical digest just published, it ap pears that the human famil y numbers $700,000 ,- 000 ; and its annual loss b'y death is 18,000,00-0 which produces 624,400 tons of animal matter, which in turn generates, by decomposition', 9,000,000,000 cubic feet of gases, which are cleared away by the atmos; here, by vegetable matter decomposing aixd assimilating them sq r their own uses. The Galveston (Texas) News says that the j walls of the State Capitol in Austin are now nearly completed to their full elevation. The appearance of this edifice is said to be very impo sing, standing, as it does, on the high elevation at the head of Congress Avenue, and presenting its full proportions to the eye from a great dis tance. Its six massive columns in front, rising from its basement to its summit, add greatly to its architectural appearance. The whole build" ing is constructed of the perfectly white and beautiful stone so abundant in the neighborhood, which is polished to the extent of its capacity, which is but iittle short of the polish of marble. It is expected that it will be completed suffi ciently lor the next Legislature to hold its session in it. The Crops. —Within the last tew days much rain has fallen. Our crops are, at present, doing well. In visiting Polk county a week ago, we remarked that we had seldom seen better crops. By a private letter from Tennessee, we are informed that one of our acquaintances expects to make twelve barrels of corn to the acre. The writer adds,that Georgia will never starve while the Tennessee river runs.— lb.

Pierce’s Northern ap pointments, exhibit on the part'of their authors, a degree of bare-faced effrontery almost sublime. Have these Whigs never heard of one Millard Fillmore—of one Thomas Corwin—more— (we ask it not without the respect due the mighty dead.) have they never heard of Daniel Web ster? We suppose they have, for Millard Fill more is their idolized Ex-President, Thomas Corwin, one of the ablest members of his Cabi net, and Daniel Webster was, in Geor-gia, their chosen candidate for the Presidency, 1 at the last canvass. Well, we challenge them to mention the name of a single man whom i Pierce has appointed to a prominent office, who I | is more of i< Free-Soiler than either of this trio. f ! These guardians of Southern institutions have > voted, or were only prevented, by death, from i voting for both Fillmore and Webster. Now ■ we defy them to a comparison of the recorded i sentiments of a single one of Pierce’s prominent i | appointees with those proclaimed at different ■ times by Messrs. Fillmore and Webster? Dare • j they institute such a comparison l We believe i ! not. Our readers will observe that we make no at tack upon either of them. One has gone into retirement —the other to the grave. We only refer to them to expose the unblushing impu dence of those who, having extolled them to the skies,*now object to the appointment, by Presi dent Pierce, of raefl, whose sentiments on slave ry, were neither better nor worse than those pro mulgated by Fillmore and Webster. Southern Whigs were willing to make a President (of either of these distinguished “Free Soilers,” (they were both Free Soilers, if opposition to the extension of slavery constitutes a Free Soil er,) and yet if Pierce gives a petty Post Office or Collectorship situated in a northern State to a Free Soiler, southern Whigs rend the air and our ears, with their cries. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.— Suvannah Georgian , 29th inst. ! Ths Game of Brag.— The Whig party have j always been good at this game. There never has been an election in Georgia since that party has been in existence, that they were not going to carry by a triumphant majority. And though they are usually defeated, yet when the election comes round again, they begin at the old game, and trumphet forth their vaunted victory in ad vance. This remark was suggested, by a letter received from a friend in Cherokee, a few day’s since, which fully verifies what we have said on this point. The writer remarks: ‘ You need not give credit to one-fourth of what you hear from this section, about whig success. If I gave credit to what is reported respecting Spalding, | Pike, Monroe and Meriwether, Johnson will be beat in those four counties, from 1,200 to 1,500 votes, but knowing the Whig game, we let it pass for what it is worth.” Only think of that, gentle reader. Pike, Spalding, Monroe and Meriwether, to give Jenkins 12 to 1,500 ma jority, from 300 to 375 majority in each county. , This is a specinfen of the fairness of our adver saries. If they are half as bad mistaken about their prospects, in other portions of the State i their disappointment must be awful. If wa I were as sure of Johnson’s election, as we are ; that the four counties above named, will give him a majority of at least five hundred, we i should give ourselves but very little further trouble about the election. What say you Dem ocrats of Pike, Spalding, Monroe and Meriwe j ther ?—Georgia Jeffersonian, 28 th inst. The train from Augusta did not arrive in this city last evening until about seven o’clock, hav ing been compelled to wait for a culvert to be repaired that had been washed away on this side of Graniteville by the recent rains. —Charleston , Courier , 30th hist. i We learn from a correspondent of the New berry Sentinel, that negroes are selbng in Mont gomery county, Kentucky, briskly,at the follow ing rates: men from 1000 to $1,200; boys 12 or 13 years old from 800 to S9OO, and my informant •saw a youug woman, and child three months old, ;sell for SI3OO. Ohio being a near neighbor soemstomake no difference with prosperous Kentucky about the price of slaves.— lb. We perceive that Robert Bunch, Esq , British | Consul at Philadelphia, has, with the permission of his Government, exchanged with Mr. Mathew the late Conad at this port, who is expected to I commence his duties in Philadelphia in a few ; days. The Philadelphia Enquirer says that Mr. 1 Bunch, although he has resided but a short time in Philadelphia in his official capacity, made a j most favorable impression, and that many friends , will sincerely regret his departure.— lb. A letter to the editor of the Morning News dated Chocochattee, Florida, July 21,1853, says: “The country generally, is healthy: how long it will continue so, I cannot tell, The rainy season is now upon us, and if it continues throughout as moderate as it has commenced, we may expect a comparatively healthy year. When I w rote to you last, I stated that the indications of th* weather were in favor of a continued drought, from which we had begun to suffer. My arrticipations were generally realized. Some localities, however, received partial showers. The crop of corn will, in consequence, b# some what under an average, ranging from 0 to a full crop. My own, I put down at J. Cotton prom ises finely so far. For about three weeks past, the rains have been pretty general and very plentiful. There will be, 1 think, plentiful pro visions made in the country for the present in habitants. *#**## # “ A most distressing occurrence transpired a few days since, in the neighborhood of Old Tampa. A Mr. Tillis was in this neighborhood, making up a drove of beef-cattle, some fifty or sixty miles from home. It appears that in his absence, his daughter, a girl of about twelve years old, was sent alone to a neighbor’s house, to stay with the neighbor’s wife a few days while the husband would be absent on some business. The distance was perhaps two or three miles;, with a plain trail, s,nd no danger was apprehended. Five days afterwards, when the girl was perhaps expected to return home, the alarming and most distressing intelligence came to the home of the unfortunate girl., that she had not been seen at the neighbor’s house at all. She had become lost, or perhaps had been de stroyed by wild beasts. The afflictive intelli gence reached the father on the Bth day. At the last accounts, upwards of forty men were in search of the lost one, and it was said that some signs, where the poor famished girl plucked the buds of the palmetto, to subsist upon, had been discovered. God grant that she may be found in time to save her.” Carrollton Railroad.— A corps of Engi neers, headed by Mr. Foote, arrived in our town Friday or Saturday last, and commenced opera tions on Monday morning, in the survey of the route for the contemplated and much talked of Railroad from Griffin, Ga., to Decatur, Ala. They took up their line of march from this place, in the direction of Carrollton and Decatur, and will probably be engaged on this end of the route, some 10 or 12 weeks, when they will return and complete the survey from Newnan to Grif fin. We have no doubt the road will be built, and before two years, we hope to be able to chronicle the arrival of the “ iron horse” at Car rollton, Newnan, Griffin and Savannah,from the fertile regions of the West. So mote it be. [Neuman Banner , 28th inst. A True Bill Found. —The Placer (Califor nia) Times says : A true bill was found by the Grand Jury on the 29th, against James Collier, Collector of Customs at San Francisco under Gen. Taylor’s administration, on charge of using $300,000 of the public money. An officer of the U. S. District Court will probably be despatched after the offender. The punishment provided by statute is not less than six months, nor more than ten years’ imprisonment. Investigations are understood to be proceeding in the matter of the charges presented against Thomas Butler King, with what result remains to be seen. The Washington Star says that the evidence on which the charges were preferred against Mr. Collier, was forwarded from the Treasury Department at Washington, and that officers started after Mr. Collier, who was at Steuben ville, Ohio, when last heard from, by the Nica ragua line, leaving California on the Ist of Ju ly. [Telegraphed for the Baltimore Sun ] J Salem, July 26. Later from Buenos Ayres—The City still Be sieged -Montevideo dates to the 4th of June have been received here. Also same dates from Buenos Ayres. The city was still besieged, and guerilla contests were ot daily occurrence. Many have been wounded or killed, particularly among the outsiders. The National Congress at Santa Fe had adopt ed a constitution lor the confederated provinces, in most respects like that of the United States. It had been accepted by Urquiza, but it was not probable that the authorities of Buenos Ayres would accept it, while Urquiza, with an army and fleet, surrounded the city. The time allowed vessels in the port of Bue nos Ayres to load, had been extended 12 days. Washington, July 27. Washington Affairs. —In the Criminal Court this morning, Dr. Gardiner’s counsel made a motion to continue the case, on the ground that there was no prospect, at present, of the return of the Mexican commissioner. The Court de clined on the ground that the commissioner was daily expected. The jury in the case of Schaumburg are still out. Senator Chase, of Ohio; Col. U. M. Harrison, Consul to Jamaica ; Judge Smith, of California ; Judge Potter, of Ohio, and Captain Depera, who led the charge at the National Bridge in Mexico, are in town. The latter is spoken of as likely to receive a handsome Consulship. Col. Paine, of Rochester, and Charge Seibles left this evening. J. Oliphant, recently removed form the office of the Register of the Treasury, has been re. stored. M. S. Parker has been appointed mail agent on the New Haven and New London Railroad. It is understood that the squadron sent to the fishing grounds will remain there permanently. The Washington Postoffice is being enlarged. Col. Berrett is a very popular officer. Easton. Pa., July 26. Freshet at Easton—Damage to Canal and Rail road.—A very heavy storm oi rain visited he*re last night, doing considerable damage. The wa ter rose very high, washing away the road in some places. The towpath on the canal, some fifteen miles below here, was also washed away so as to stop the passage of boats. A culvert on the Belvidere railroad, below Miilford, was also washed away, preventing the trains from passing Philadelphia, July 27. Funeral of J. Price WetheriH. —The funeral of the late J.

The quotations wore unchanged, viz : 6sd. for fair Orleans and 6|d. for fair Upland.— There was a tolerably good enquiry at the latest dates, but the prices for the lower grades were easier and the market c'osed tamely. Our market has been quiet all the week. The sales amount to 309 bales, 48 at 8 ; 9 at 9$ ; 50 at 10 ; amd 202 at 10 J cents.
