Arrival of the Steamer America.
Halifax, Aug. 16th.
The steamer America arrived this afternoon,
bringing Liverpool dates of the 6th inst., and
] 14 passengers. She passed the Arabia going in.
England. —Lord John Russell had brought
forward in Parliament his plan for the settlement
of the Jamaica grants.
Lieut. Maury had explained his wind and tide
theories to a meeting of Liverpool merchants and
had been cordially recieved.
Russia and Turkey. —The Eastern question
was nearly decided one way or the other, but
the aspect of affairs did not look promising of
peace.it The Czar’s final answer could not be
known until the 12th of August. It he accep
ted the propositions of the three Powers, his
troops must be withdrawn from the Piincipali
ties. The conference at Vienna, in pursuance of
arrangements, will conclude a treaty to protect
Turkey, at all hazards, for all time to come. It the
Czar refuses the ultimatum, or evades a reply .the
allied fleets will enter the Bosphorus, and further
active measures be taken to maintain the integ
rity of Turkey.
The conduct of the Russian General in the
Principalities iodicates the intention to maintain
permanent possession. Russia exhibits no signs
of retraction.
The bulk of the Russian army was advancing
inta Wallachia. The Russian Admiral had gone
to Sebastopool, to review the fleet there. The
Russians were also Notifying Jassy and Eucha
rist.
The report that Turkey had already recalled
the Hospodars is doubted. The warlike move
ments of the Porte continue on an extensive
scale. Fifty-two French field officers had en
tered the Turkfsh service.
A Turkish mob at i-aodicea had attempted the
life of the Russian consul.
The Druses and other mountaineers were ar
riving, and it ws evident that in the event of
war, all Mahomedanism would be arrayed
against Russia.
Austria —A Frankfort journal says that
Austria will not only demand reparation from
America for the Smyrna affair, but that Turkey
shall immediately procure the extradition of
Kosta. Letters from St. Petersburg say that
when the Czar heard of the Kosta affair he ad
vised Austria to do anything rather than give
the United States a pretence for interfering in
the affairs of Europe.
France. —In France every thing' was tran
quil. The Eastern question absorbed the pub
lic attention.
Spain. —The Mexican Minister had arrived at
Madrid. The grape disease continues.
Persia. —The cholera in Persia was increas
ing and the plague had broken out in Khordes
san.
MARKETS.
Liverpool , Aug. 6.—Cotton opened active at
the beginning of the week, but fell off at the
close. There were more sellers than buyers,
and prices were unsteady. Middling and lower
qualities had declined id. Sales of the week
4-1,200 bales—of which speculators took 3,950
bales and exporters 6,850 bales. The quotations
were : Fair Orleans 7d., Middling 6}d., fair
Mobile and Upland 6Jd., Middling 6d.
At Manchester trade was firm.
London Money Market . —U. S. stocks were
quiet but firm. U.gS. s’s, 6S, 111*; ditto 67, 68,
110;a 111. Pennsylvania s’s, 88 a 89. Mary

Consols had declined to 97i a 97 j.
Furthsr News the America.
The America from Liverpool the 6th inst.,
sailed from Halifax at six o’clock last evening,
with a light wind and clear weather, for Boston,
where she will be due at an early hour this
morning.
Russia and Turkey. —The Eastern difficulty
is within a few days of being settled, either for
peace or war. The public generally look on
the state oi affairs as less satisfactory.
The choice rests solely and wholly on the
personal will of the Emperor Nicholas. As it
required till the 10th or 12th of August to hear
from him as to his acceptance or not of the Ulti
matum of the four powers, we must disregard all
rumors, either tavorable or unfavorable until
then. No one but Nicholas himself can know
what his intentions are, and the multitude of
statements telegraphed from Vienna, Paris, and
elsewhere, are for the mere purpose of inlluencing
the markets.
The state of affairs at Constantinople and in
the Principalities remain unchanged. Only 6000
Russians will remain in Moldavia, the bulk of
the army being advanced into Wallachia.
Duke Constantine, the Czar’s son, Grand
Admiral of the Russian fleet, had arrived at
Odessa and proceeded to Sebastopol to review the
squadron.
Although the Hospodarsf nominally retain
power, the Russians had appointed a board of
three commissioners, nominated by the Czar, to
decide on all political and administrative mea
sures —their decisions being final.
It was reported that the Porte had already re
called the Hospodars, and that tbe Prince of Ghi
ka had declared his independence of the Sultan,
but both statements were doubted.
It was also announced that the Prophet’s ban
ner —the signal for a holy war—had been un
furled -, but this too, was pronounced false.
Warlike preparations, however, continued on
both sides, without interruption.
Syria is in a very disorganized state—the
Christians were leaving Antioch and Aleppo
for the coast. Drussas and other mountaineers
were arming. In other parts of the Turkish
Empire great confusion and disorder prevailed.
Cholera in Persia is advancing towards Ta
briz.
Great Britain. —ln the House of Commons,
Lord Jchn Russell stated the intentions of the
Government in regard to Jamaica. The prin
cipal feature of the plan is, that England guaran
tees £550,000 sterlin g to adjust the difficulties,
and appoints Sir Henry Barclay Governor.
Mr Gibson’s motion for the committee on the
subject of ocean penny postage is postponed till
next session.
Parliament is expected to be prorogued on the
18th or 20th August.

Denmark.—The cholera continued its rava
ges at Copenhagen. The total number of cases

had proved fatal.
Commercial Intelligence— Liverpool Cot
ton Market. —Since Wednesday, the 3d, more
warlike news, together with accounts of the
cotton crop per Pacific, checked the demand and
depressed the market. Holders offered freely,
and prices of American were irregular and in
favor of buyers, particularly the lower and in
ferior grades, which have declined *d. The
week’s business was 43,310 hales, (including
31,000 American,) leaving a stock on hand of
842,832, of which 571,000 bales were American.
Liverpool Corn Market. —The warlike ap
pearances tend to keep up, while fine weather
and free imports depress the market, which is
therefore inanimate, holders declining to accept
lower rates, and buyers acting on the reserve.
On the week, wheat is 2d. lower ; flour Is. low
er, and Indian corn firm at full rates. The har
vest in Great Britain will be late, and the wheat
crops are expected to be deficient.
London Money Maket. —Baring Brothers
report money in great demand, and discounts
dearer, out of doors. The bank’s minimum
rate unchanged. The funds continue depressed.
Silver in demand for India and China at &d.
advance.
Havre Markets. — Cotton dull— sales #f the
week to the 3d inclusive, 4,000 bales. Imports
same period 2,418, leaving a stock on hand of
118,000 bales, mostly American. Coffee gener
ally well supported.
Latest Intelligence. —The London Globe
indicates the probable course of events, if the
Czar rejects the proposition of the four powers,
viz. No actual attack on the Russians will en
sue ; the allied fleets will merely take up posi
tions under the walls of Constantinople; nego
tiations will be resumed; three months may
elapse before they are completed, and war this
year will then be impossible, and the whole
winter will be available to discuss matters.
This, doubtless, is only an ingenious guess. The
morning mail brings no additional facts.

SUNDAY MORNING AUGUST 21.
FOR GOVERNOR,

(concluded.!
• Milledgeville, Aug. 16, 1853.
The St. Nicholas, Metropolitan, and Prescott
House, are kindred specimens of elegance and
costliness, and on a larger scale. Taylor’s is
merely an elegant restaurant—the headquarters
of fashion—where the ladies, not less than the
gentlemen, drop in every hour in the day for
their broiled steaks and chickens, mutton chops,
ham, tongue, sardines, macaronis, soups and
salads, &c., to say nothing of the folio volume
of recherche dishes taken from European cuisine.
Also, for ftieir tea, chocolate and coffee, and
truth requires us to add, their Sherry cobblers,
cordials, champagne, and bottled ale. The others
are palace-like hotels, with no less costly profu
sion of mirrors pannelled in the walls and ceil
ings of fresco and gold, and chandaliers of bronze
and Bohemian glass, rosewood and papier mache,
velvet and tapestry, &c. The art of the up
holsterer and the cabinet-maker, and decorators
in Carton Pierre, have combined to make the
show rooms of these new hotels equal in ele
gance to the most celebrated show rooms in
European palaces, and apart from the historic
associations which place the latter immeasura
bly beyond rivalry, have succeeded.
The Western and Southern people, who fur
nish so large a portion of the transient custom
of these large show hotels, are gregarious in
their tastes. They like to be where the biggest
crowd is to be four. 4, and a showy hotel, with
its tinsel and glare, which can contain the popu
lation of a whole village, or the crew of a first
class line of battle ship, will be preferred by
them to a more quiet and smaller establishment,
where there is more comfort, but less display.
This is, however, not to be wondered at, nor to
be found fault with. Those who lead a quiet
life, remote from.crowds and the bustle of great
marts of trade, when they leave home for plea
sure, go to see the world. They wish to see
life in its contrasts to their every day experience.
Thus the crowded hotel and theatre, the rushing
throng of Broadway, the steamboats and cars
crammed with human life, pressing on from
city to city, and one watering place to another,
all have an agreeable excitement and never
ending novelty for the quiet townsman, and so
ber villager, and the retired country gentleman,
and their wives and daughteis, as well as those
who are off, to spend their money and see the
world for a few weeks of the hot summer.
The number of these, during the present sum
mer in New York city, is much greater than
usual. The Broadway Hotels are all the time
full with them, As soon as one set has seen
the sights of New York, and satiated their eyes
with the curious and beautiful congregated in
the Crystal Palace and other show shops of the
great emporium of American commerce, they
are of! for the falls, the watering places, the
lakes and the mountains, and set are

all of which is worthy the consideration? of those
who like to be in the hustle of or
are compelled by business to be henj in
Maiden lane, Pearl or Front street, H on or
Nassau, in the day, but sigh for the noiseless
quiet and repose at night fall, which will re
mind them of their distant home. This is es
pecially the case during periods of such exces
sively hot weather as New York has recently
been visited with, and which has caused scores
of deaths weekly.
1 here are doubtless already in Align ta num
bers of citizens returned from the Crystal Pal
ace exhibition and other places of public resort,
who have supplied, by verbal description, the
little left deficient by the newspapers. There
were other objects of less notoriety, but to me
suggestive of more that is interesting and really
useful, which attiacted my attention. But to
write a letter about New York and say nothing
of the Crystal Palace, would seem to some like
performing the play of Hamlet and leaving out
the parts of Hamlet, and the ghost of “ buried
Denmark.”
The Crystal Palace, in shorf, then, is a vast
advertising shop, more than answering the part
of an omnium gatherum newspaper, which ad
vertises every thing ever made, invented and
told, which the wants, or fancies, or tastes of
society might call for; and with this great dif
ference, that here the very objects themselves
are on exhibition. A world of elegant and in
genious, and of useful things, is here spread out
to feast the eyes and gratify the curiosity of the
spectators. It is a concentration of the show
windows of Broadway in New York, of Bond
and Regent streets_, London, and of most cf the
great cities of Europe. Not only superb bronze
and marble statuary, and plaster casts from the
great originals—not only oil paintings and co
lored engravings, some good, but most of them
so so—not only great works of imagination, but
exquisite specimens of costly furniture and plate,
combining taste and utility, and others gaudy
show and prodigality of expense, serve to give
splendor and richness to the show. Elegant porce
lain and Bohemian and cut glass, and silver and
gold plate, lent their attractions. Rare and cost
ly jewelry and fancy articles glittered in the
show cases—rich stuffs were draped and fes
tooned upon the walls. Thread lace skirts, price
SI,OOO, were spread upon a ground of black
velvet—nets to catch the silly imitators of aris
tocratic wastefulness. Every device extant to j
decoy money from those who have more than \
they know what to do with, into pockets where j
its value will be better appreciated, could in this j
great curiosity shop be found represented.
Very beautiful specimens of workmanship in
the useful arts, and in the production of objects j
of utility, were to be found*on all sides. Ido not ;
embrace under this head such articles as an Ita- ;
lian Centre Table of mosiac, formed of woods of
every color and shade, elaborately inlaid so as
to form tasteful scenes and fancy sketches, as !
this table was valued at the modest price ot
S3OOO. This would seem to exclude it from the
list of useful articles.
Some objects were elaborately produced of the
costliest materials, to exhibit skill and taste in
manufacture. There were show cases contain
ing elegant costumes from the Mantilla and Ball
Dress of the belle, to the Lace Cape and Skirt of
the cradle infant—the uniform of the Major
General and the felt hat and embroidered jacket oi
the school boy, and some of these costumes, par
ticularly the female costumes —are displayed on
wax figures as large as life, and twice as beautiful.
Genin, you may be sure, the man who bought
the first high priced Jenny Lind ticket, had oneiof
these show cases, in which, in the American de
partment, he showed ofl'his rich French goods on
his wax figures. Others, tailors, dress makers
and milliniers had their show cases. Others
again had their show cases to show off fancy
soaps and perfumeries. And so on to the end of
the chapter. Coachimkers, Boat builders, Piano
manufacturers and C abinet makers, Chandelier
makers, Clock makers, workers in marble, brass
and iron, in a hundred other pursuits, had their
advertisements also, and here the eye and the
mind would find some relief from the mere
glitter and tinsel ol ostentatous finery and irip
pery to that which partook of the useful com
bined with the ornamental. The honorable
rivalry of house against house and nation against
nation in such departments is worthy the atten
tion of enlightened minds. The competition
among the mechanics and manufacturers of Eu
rope and America, to produce the best articles
and improve on useful machines, will bestow
substantial good on mankind, and more than re
pay ten times over the expense of these costly
exhibitions. The true object of them has in
some cases been perverted, and selfish cunning
has availed itself of the opportunity to make
money unfairly, out of the privileges of the exhi
bition. It is not the advertising their wares lor
sale in this way, and having their clerks on
hand to distribute business cards. This is
legitimate enough, though in some cases pushed
toolar; but it is said, millions of Jewelry and
fine goods have been brought into the coun
try for sale, but nominally lor exhibition, and
which have thus passed the custom house fiee.
Whe'n the catalogue of articles on exhibition
makes a considerable volume, it would of course
be tolly in me to attempt to particularize. Nor
will space permit a commentary on the several
excellences of the different nations competing
for the honors. It is an exhibition in which the
state of the fine arts and industry in all nations
is represented, not completely,nor perhaps to the
best advantage, but still represented in an in
teresting light. Ido not consider the exhibition
a humbug. It is creditable to those who got it
up in design—in their labors, and in the main,
in the results. It is not yet what it is to be.—
The exhibition is still incomplete. While visit
ing it, from day to-day, the sound ot the ham
mer was heard, new boxes were being opened
and new objects brought to light. It will not
be complete till about the Ist October. There
fore, those who postpone their visit longest will
be best pleased, up to the completion.
I must close this prosy letter, yet I cannot
promise that I will not in my next tonch on
this or kindred topics : for when my pen dashes
into the politics of the present canvass, it will
not be withdrawn to return to themes suggested
by my summer rambles,
I was gratified on reaching Savannah and
since my arrival here, at intelligence of the
bright, and still brightening prospects of success
for the Democratic party of Georgia. The De
mocracy of the whole Union are warmly inter
ested in this approaching election, and prepared
to rejoice with us if we succeed. Let us not
disappoint them. It is to the Democratic party
the people of this country have entrusted the suc
cess of American policy and American progress,
and the glory of the American name. No other
party has won for it prosperity at home and hon
or abroad. G.
A Parallel.
Two wrongs never make aright, and it is
good neither in ethics or politics to paliate one
bad example by quoting another.
But it is legitimate to expose the hypocrasy
of those politicians who profess great abhorrance
of all opponents who have shown any disposi
tion to pander to abolitionism, and yet have
winked at the same thing when done by the
great men of their own party. For the benefit
of that class in Georgia, who .are just now
simulating a state of most riotorous indignation,
at what they are pleased to term Gen. Pierce’s
free soil appointments, yet, last year, would
have voted for Millard Fillmore, for Presi
dent, we copy the following parallel from the
Tallahassee Floridian :
“ A Rabid Free Soiler in Office."
Hon. Wm. J. Brown, of Indiana, has been
appointed as Post Office Mail Agent in Indiana
a highly responsible office. He is a rabid free
soiler of the rankest order. It was this same
Hon. Win. J. Brown who pledged himself to
the Hon. David Wilmot in 1849, when a candi
date in Congress for the speakership of the
House, that if elected Speaker, he would "con
stitute the committees on Territories, District of
Columbia, etc., in such a manner as would be
satisfactory to him and his friends”—the free
soilers. Yet the organs of the “ new order of
things” loudly proclaim that no freesoilers have
been appointed so office by General Pierce.—
N. V. Bulletin.
Poall this absurd and ridiculous twaddle, Mr.
Brown himself replies conclusively. His reply
is in the Indiana Sentinel, of which he is the ed
itor. We quote :
Ihe Louisville Journal gives the appoint
ment ot W.n. J. Brown as an evidence that
1 resident Pierce is bestowing his patronage on
lreesoilers. Does the editor of the 'Journal
know that W m. J. Brown on all occasions voted
against the VVilmot Proviso, whilst not more
than eight Northern whigs voted with him; and
that he voted lor the Compromise, the fugitive
slave law inclusive, whilst but one Northern
wnig, (Col. Taylor, of Ohio.) voted for all these
measures ?”
We should think such a reply w6uld silence
forever the partisan hacks who speak of Mr.
Brown as a “ rabid freesoiler.” But will it do
so? We shall see. Will one single whig paper
tell its readers that Mr. B. never voted for the
Wilmot proviso, but that he did vote for the fu
gitive slave law ? We shall see again how lar
the whig press are willing to do justice to a
man who, notwithstanding his pledge to the
treesoilers about framing the Committee on Ter
ritories, proved himself in the hour of need a
friend to the South, while a united Whig party
with only one exception, rallied under the black
banner of the enemy. We admit that Mr.
Brown’s bid to the freesoil member ot Congress
was a most unfortunate step in his political his
tory, but it has a paiallel in Mr. Fillmore’s fa
mous letter to u the Abolition Society ol the
county of Erie,” in 1838. Mr. F. wanted to
go to Congress, and so bid for abolition votes—
Mr. Brown wished to be speaker, and also bid
for abolition support—a striking likeness in the
two cases. Mr. Fillmore rigidly adhered to his
Erie pledges—opposed the admission of Texas
on the ground of slavery—favored abolition in
the District, and did everything which a deter
mined anti-slavery man might do; while Mr.
Brown saw the error of his way—voted on all
accasions against the Proviso, and finally, like
an honest, conscientious man, obliteratad every
remaining vestage or resemblance of freesoilism
by voting for the fugitive slave law. Now,
with this showing, we ask every candid man,
which of these two persons has exhibited most
“ rabid freesoilism ” —Mr. Fillmore or Mr.
Brown ?
Another. —Mr. Hughes, member of Congress
from the Washington County District in New
York, was charged with free-soilism, and with
securing the large local patronage of his district
exclusively to free-soilers. The Sandy Hill
Herald, a national paper, puts the charge to rest,
and says:
“ Nearly every important Post Office in the
county, (and we know of no other local pat
ronage in the gift of Mr. H.) is filled with lead
ing and influential Hunkers—men who support
ed General Cass—who ever have and who ever
will stand by the notional democracy, and will
always be found ready to do battle against any
ism that may present itself.”
Relief to the New Orleans Sufferers,
It will be seen by the proceedings ol our City
Council, published this morning, that they have
appropriated the sum of SSOO for the relief of
the sufferers in New Orleans, and have appoint
ed a committee of two from each ward to call
on our citizens and receive their contributions
for the sane praise-worthy object. The com
mittees will go the rounds of the wards on
Monday and Tuesday, and we hope that all-will
contribute liberally.
The City Council of Charleston, we have al
ready mentioned, conti ibuted $2,000 for their
relief, and W’e see by the Courier of yesterday
that the citizens had left at that office alone, for
the same purpose, $1,024, which has been
promptly lor warded.
The recent Accident on the State Road.
We are indebted to a friend for the follow
ing particulars, of,the recent disastrous explosion
on the State Road. Railroad accidents are be
coming too common of late, and those who have
control of Railroads, should enquire closely in'
to the causes.
“On yesterday (Thursday,) between Ack
worth and Marietta, say four miles from the for
mer and eight miles from the latterjp'ace, the
freight train stopped to take in water. The
boilers being hot and empty caused an awfu
explosion, tearing the locomotive into pieces’
and immediately killing the conductor and two
others attached to the Highwassee Road; also
wounding five others, one of whom will have to
have his left arm taken off above the elbow. —
The others sustained severe, but not dangerous
injuries. You might have picked up frag
ments of iron weighing from 75 to 100 pounds,
75 or SO yards off, where they were thrown. The
T iron where the wheels of the engine stood, was
bent into the ground. This detained the passen
ger train so long as to lose the connection, as we
did not get to Atlanta till 9 o’clock at night. The
Conductor killed leaves a wife, and as I under
stand, a family, who are living in Atlanta.—
It was an awful sight to see the legs of the kill
ed severed in twain and their bodies nearly in
two with their bowels hanging out. How vhe
engineer escaped, I cannot tell, as he was, I un
derstand, standing at the time on the back end
of the train.”
Canvass Appointments
The Hon. H. V. Johnson, and Charles J. Jen
kins, the Democratic and Whig Candidates for
Governor, we see by the up country papers,
have taken the stump. Their appointments up
to the 27th inst. are as follow :
LaFayette, Monday, August 22
Dalton, Tuesday, w 23
Spring Place, Wednesday, “ 24
Calhoun, Thursday. “ 25
Cassville, Friday. ' “ 26
Canton, Saturday, “ 27
About forty ships are now on their passage
from various ports in the East Indies and Pacific
to Boston, most ot them being from Calcutta
and Manilla. There are not so many vessels at
the East Indies as last year, in consequence of
the greater profit of Guano freights. At the last
accounts there were upwards of one hundred
American ships at the Cbincha Islands, or on
their passage to Callao from San Francisco.
Many of these were Boston vessels that would
otherwise have proceeded to the East Indies in
quest of business. Many ot the first ships in
this trade from Boston are there now trading
with Guano, and their homeward freights will
run Irom 20 to 50 thousand dollars each.
Ihe Washington Correspondent of the N. Y.
Herald, says that Captain Gibson has been re
ceived in that city by the Government in the
most satisfactory manner—every evidence be
ing given ot a desire to investigate his case,
and protect his right as an American citizen.—
To this end he has been requested to present an
account of the matter for the purpose of inform
ing the Government fully of the facts. The de
partments already contain a mass of documents
irom Colonel Humphrey Marshall, Commodore
Aulick, Captain McGruder, United States Consul
at Singapore, W. W. Shaw, &c., all corrobora
tive of Captain GibsonVStatement of the case
Mr. Belmont, our Minister to the Hague, was
instructed to make inquiries into the matter.
Since the Captain’s arrival, however, it has
been determined to make Mr. Belmont’s instruc
tions more precise, and that gentleman has been
requested to delay his departure till they can be
made out. There is little doubt that the instruc
tions will be—first, to demand of the Dutch
government the payment of the damages awar
ded him by their Court of Justice at Batavia;
second, the recognition of United States Consuls
in the principal ports of the Dutch East Indies
and a proper definition of the territory occupied
by them in the Eastern Archipelago.
General John Wilson, who now resides in
San Francisco, has written a letter io Governor
Foote,of Mississippi, about a group of islands in
the Pacific known as Navigator’s Islands.
With the letter General Wilson sends to Gover
nor Foote some pickings of cotton taken from
one of the cotton trees which grow on those
islands. This tree attains the extraordinary
height of thirty feet. The boll is about the size
of a goose egg. When the cotton tree is in full
bloom it presents a superb appearance, looking
like an immense snow-ball tree, ot the kind that
adorns so many of our gardens.
It is reported that information has been re
ceived from Judge Sharkey, the American Con
sul at Havana, which corroborated to the fullest
extent the statements published concerning the
secret arrangements between England and Spain
for the abolition of slavery in Cuba. This mat
ter has not yet been acted upon by the Cabinet.
The English and Spanish Abolition Trea
ts. —The becret Treaty between Britain and
Spain is, doubtless,jsays the Washington Star,
the subject of more serious concern with the
Government of the United States, than any
other question now before the world. Indeed, it
bids fair to prove to be the most important mat
ter handled by the present Administration.
England, in forcing or leading Spain into the
treaty in question, has probably put her in a
position in which, sooner or later, it will be in
cumbent on the United States to treat her as
though not a Government. If this treaty be
consummated, she will stand, through England’s
interference, just where Russia proposes to place
Turkey.
The conduct of England in this affair, is cot
only offensive but dangerous to the interests of
certain States of this confederacy and their citi
zens, and bids fair to be so treated. We shall
not be at all surprised, says the editor, to hear
shortly, that Mr. Soule is instructed to say to
Spain, that her conduct in submitting to Eng
land’s dictation and protectorate over the ne
groes of Cuba, is likely to compel the Govern
ment of the United States to consider her as ab
dicating her rights in and to that Island.
The Late Hot Spell. —ln Boston the ther
mometer on Saturday stood at 94 1-2, a tempe
rature which, according to the Traveller, has
been but once equalled in August, (on 6th, in
1846.) and never surpassed within the last
twenty-nine years. On August sth, 1838, the
thermometer rose to 94. On the 6th, 7th and
Bth of the remarkable September, 1849, to 94,
94 and 93, and the average of the night of the
6th was very nearly the same as that of the last
night. In these three days in September the
thermometer rose in the country about twenty
miles west of Boston, to 97, and on the Ist in
New York to 99. At Albany the mercury last
week crept up steadily and slowly from 39 on
Monday to 99 on Saturday noon.

The Jenkins Platform.
Slump Speaker —“Fellow-Citizens: Is not one
man as good as another?
Patrick —“ Yes, be Jabers ! and a great deal
better, too.”
Mr. Jenkins and other stump orators and ed
itors, put quite a Hibernian construction upon
the fourth resolution of their convention, which
denounced both parties as faithless to their pled
ges. They argue that both parties are unsound,
especially the democratic. They ask if Northern
democrats are not as bad as Northern whigs;
and in response to their own question, they shout
at the top of their lungs, “ yes! and a great deal
worse.” Mr. Jenkins had to try to prove that
the New York Democracy were unsound on the
rights of the South. According to his own show
ing the reverse of his inference was carrect. He
referred to the resolutions recently passed by
the Democracy of the Legislature as evidence
against them ! We shall comment upon these
strange conclusions of Mr. Jenkins, when we
can lay our hands upon the proceedings to
which he referred. But besides this he had
to step out of his way to defend Mr. Fillmore’s
administration. He had to attack President
Pierce’s appointments. He had to exclaim,
“God forbid, that I should go to the Demo
cratic party.” He had to inveigh against the
Administration of President Pierce for the ap
pointment of a mail agent , who was a free
soiler, when he himself would have elevated to
the Presidency a man who was a known and
avowed freesoiler. That is just the way with
all of these new-fangled conservatives who
were the other day Whig.? and now are re
publican citizens. They will abuse both par
ties—the whigs a little, the Democrats a great
deal. They will maintain that a Northern
Whig is as good as a Northern Democrat—
yea, and a great deal better. They will pro
nounce both parties corrupt, especia'ly the
Democrats. Will not the voters of Georgia
deal with them as they deserve?— Marietta Ad

The Algerine Law.
Section 2. And be it further enacted , That no
person shall be allowed to vote for Aldermen , who,
in addition to the qualifications now required ol
voters, does not own real estate to the value of me
thousand dollars , according to the annual tax as
sessment next previously made by the authority
ot the city Council, or has actually paid a tax to
said city of twenty-five dollors on real or per
sonal estate, or either, within the same year pro
ceeding such election, and no person shall be
eligible as Alderman, who does not possess the
qualifications herein prescribed for voters.
Os this law Mr. Jenkins gives the following
account :
“ Having carefully read and considered its pro
visions, 1 gave it, with the exception of a single
clause, my approval and support. With entire
concurrence of Mr. Miller, I moved to strike out
the objectionable section, and otherwise slightly
to amend the bill, which motion prevailed.
When it came upon its passage, j stated to the
House that the measure was local, that it had
been called for by a memorial then in my pos
session, (which might be read at the clerk’s
desk, if any member desired it.) and that there
was no counter-memorial, nor (so far as 1 knew,)
any other expression or indication of opposition
to it at home. No one objecting, The bill passed
the House as amended, and was returned to the
Senate for concurrence in the amendments.”
In the same letter he said :
“ But it is proper that I should advert to the
other alternative. As an individual, I must
frankly say that lam opposed to the repeal of
the act. Nothing has occurred to change the
opinion I entertained when I voted for it.”
In Marietta, on the 13th of August, 1853,
Mr. Jenkins, in a public speech, said that he
oelieved the principle ot the Algerine Law to
he right when he voted for it, and that he be
lieves so now. — lb.
Curious Rklic.—We are indebted to Col. R.
W. Pooler for the pleasure of examining an old
and very curious medal, which was found a few
days since in Drayton street, near Broughton,
by a laboring man, while engaged in digging a'
hole in which to deposit a post. On one side of
this medal, which is of brass-plated, is the coat
of arms of the Isle of Man, which consists of
three legs of knights in full armor, pointing in
different directions, and united by a triangle.
Around these are the words:
“ IVe stand firm to each other .”
On the other side are the words: “ Sir Jn.
Folie, Hd King att Arms , P:. C:r. 4* Tver, to the
Knights of Laxcy. Aug. 13, 1749.” Surround
ing the above is the following motto : In Love
and Friendship.”
The workmanship upon this model is quite
good, and the engraving on the coat of arms
would do credit to some of the celebrated artists
of more modern times. How such a relic came
to be buried in the sands of Savannah, is, of
course, a mystery. The question now arises,
whether we have a Sir John Folie, or decendant
of Sir John Folie, among us? and it will,
doubtless be discussed with interest. We invite
the attention of the curious and learned to this
question, and will be pleased if they will aid us
in the work of enlightning our numerous read
ers on the subject.— Savannah Cousier , 19 t/i inst
Three Thousand Majority. —Our friends
in other portions of the State are hearing of a
good deal of disaffection among the democracy
of the sth District. Notwithstanding all the
disaffection that does exist, we say, (and we
state what we know,) that the majority for
Herschel V. Johnson in this district will be at
least three thousand. The Democracy of the sth
District is almost unanimous. The places of
the few democrats who have bolted will be
supplied by good and patriotic Whigs. We are,
it is true, laboring under the embarrassment ot
having two democratic candidates, in the field,
Col. E. W. Chastain, the regular nominee of the
party, and Dr. J. W. Lewis, the independent
candidate ; but we trust that this embarrassment
will be soon removed. The contest is growing
warm, and the duty of every one is becoming
more and more apparent that he should sacrifice
whatever personal feeling, preference or desire
he may have, for the good and success of his par
ty.—Rome Southerner, 18f/i inst.
Louisville, Aug. 15.— The Indian Battle —
Defeat of the Sioux Indians. —A returned Cali
fornian, who has reached Independence, give*
the following account of the Indian battle, be
fore reported as having occurred between the
Sioux and Pawnes Indians.
The Sioux were aided in the war by the Chey
ennes Indians, and the combined forces were
about 5,000 strong. The Pawnees were assisted
by the lowas, Sacs and Pottawattamies, number
ing in all about 3,000. The opposing forces met
about fifty miles from FortKearney,and the battle
lasted all day, resulting in the loss, on both
sides, of from five to six hundred killed. The
Sioux party, though the most numerous, were
defeated.
A person who has come in from Fort Lara
mie says the above account is exaggerated, but
says that a great demonstration is being made,
and, had not the Pottawattomies interferred,
the Pawnees would have been defeated. He
thinks that hundreds insteadsof thousands would
be nearer the mark as to the actual number en
gaged, and the number killed was doubtless also
much exaggerated.
Mr. Jenkins on the Stump.
But a few days since it was the boast of some
of Mr. Jenkins’ friends that he would not take
the stump, because, to do so, was beneath the
dignity of a candidate for Governor. He has,
however, condescended to make stump speeches
like other candidates. Mr. Jenkins, on last
Saturday, spoke in Marietta. After a little
blarny, and a good deal of philosophising, he
came to speak of himself and his platform. His
remarks about himself were in too much of a
beseeching and deprecating tone to be altogether
in good taste.
In his defence of the Algerine law, he showed
himself an able lawyer and a shrewd tactician.
But the case was too bad a one for even the
ablest lawyer to sustain himself. The account
of the origin of the law, which Mr. Jenkins
gave, was substantially the same as we give in
his own language in another part of this paper.
In his labored defence of the law, he maintained
that the Aldermen for whom ho man could vote
unless he was worth a thousand dollars, had no
power except to control the laying of taxes, the
spending of money, and the finances of the city
generally. Avery trifling affair, according to
this view of Mr. Jenkins, was this matter of
taxation and appropriation. But, in the next
place, he contended that this control was neces
sary for the protection of property holders, be
cause the city authorities have the power to
raise and dispose of large sums of money. He
illustrated this view by reference to the railroad
subscriptions of hundreds of thousands of dollars
made by the citizens ol Savannah. This sec
ond view made this same matter of taxation and
appropriation an affair of no smail importance.
How the two views can be consistent with
each other, Mr. Jenkins and his friends will find
it hard to show. A complete answer to the
whole of his argument would be, that taxation
and represents ion should go together.
Mr. Jenkins compared the power of the board
of Aldermen, to the check which a grand jury
has over the Inferior court, forgetting that the
Grand Jurors are not elected at all, much less
elected by thousand dollar voters.
In concluding this part of his speech, Mr.
Jenkins announced emphatically that he be
lieved the principle of the law a good one at the
time, and that he believes so now. Here at least
there is no room for mistake or misunderstand
ing. He approved of this feature of the Alge
rine law in IS 11, and he approves of it in 1853.
Mr. Jenkins next took up portions of his cel
ebrated letter of July, and endeavored to show
that he had not been inconsistent. Os course
he failed ; for no candid and reasonable man can
compare that letter with his piesent position,
without being convinced that the two are alto
gether irreconcileable.
Mr' Jenkins then proceeded to discuss portions
of the platform—the platform of those who call
themselves the Conservative men and Republi
can citizens of Georgia, such as Toombs and
Stephens. These portions of his speech we re
fer to elsewhere. Mr. Jenkins is, in his man
ner of speaking, plausible and insinuating. But
he has now so bad a cause that with all his tal
ents he will make an utter breakdown of it.
The acknowledged purity and integiity of his
private life will not begin to atone for the odi
ousness of the political principles which he has
always held. We condemn his politics and his
political associations, leagued as he is with a
most dangerous faction of reckless politicians and
unscrupulous agitators. While we admit his
private worth, we suggest to our political oppo
nents, that justice requires that they should do
the same for Judge Johnson, who is every whit
the equal of Mr. Jenkins in talents, in integiity,
in moral worth and the purity of his private
life.— Marrietta Advocate, IS th inst.

SAVANNAH, Aug. 19. —General Remarks—W
almost every day for two weoks rain has fallen in
many places in Georgia, and, though wo have no
heard of any serious injury to the crops up to the
present time, there is a general fear expressed that
Cotton Will be seriously injured, if the present
woathor should continue. The rain causes the
weed to grow rank, and run to loaves ; and the hea
vy showers break otf the blooms, and cause the
bolls to rot. The rain has mostly been showers as
we hear that the region of country on seaboard
South of Darien, is still suffering with drought
The weather has been warm, and line for tho growth
of crops generally, and every part of Georgia, both
town and oountry, is represented to be particularly
healthy. J
Cotton. —Arrived since the 11th instant, 343 bales

to Now York, 599 do. Upland and to Charleston'
234 do. Upland—leaving on hand and on ship,
board not cleared, a stock of 3,808 bales Upland
and 149 do. Sea Islands; against 1,958 do. Upland,
and 66 do. Sea Islands, at tho same time last year
Two bales of new Cotton have been received
hero, ono from tho plantation of U. M. Robert of
Baker county, and the other from the plantation of
Samuel Muner of South Carolina. One bale of the
new crop has also been received at Tallahassee, and
ono at Mobile.
There has boon’but little business done this
week. It is emphatically tho dull season, and so
many of our citizens are now absent that there but
little doing of any kind of business. The want of
vossols, which interfered with the regular course of
trado has been removed. We have now quite a
tleet in port, though most of them have arrived so
recently as to be barely ready to receive cargo.
Since our last we havo had the news by three ar
rivals from Europe—the Africa, the ‘Humboldt,
and the America. The week's sales reported by
the Africa were 75,000 bales at Liverpool, and
16,000 at Havre, and for three days by Humboldt
25,000 bales at Liverpool without change of rates.
Tho advices by the America are not so favorable;
fair Cottons being quoted at Jd. lower, viz: Or
leans 5Jd , aqfl Upland with sales of 44,0ut)
halos for the week ending August 6th. This de
cline is no doubt caused by the war like news from
Turkey, as the indications arc, that there will not
be an immediate settlement of tho difficulties witli
Russia, and war eventually is highly probable.
