Footsteps of Angels.
BY H. W LONGFELLOW.
When the hours of day are numbered,
And the voices of the night
Wake the better soul, that slumbered.
To a holy, calm delight ;
Ere the evening lamps are lighted,
And, like phantoms grim and tall,
Shadows from the fitful firelight
Dance upon the parlor wall;
Then the forms of the departed
Enter at the open door;
The beloved, the true hearted,
Come to visit me once more.
He, the young and strong, who cherished
Noble longings for the strife,
By the roadside fell and perished,
"Weary with the march of life.
They, the holy ones and weakly,
Who the cross of suffering bore,
Folded their pale hands so meekly,
Spoke with us on earth no more.
And with them the being beauteous,
Who unto my youth was given,
More than all things else, to love me,
And is now a saint in Heaven.
With a slow and noiseless footstep
Comes the messenger divine,
Takes the vacant chair beside me,
Lays her gentle hand in mine.
And she sits and gazes at me
With those deep and tender eyes,
Like the stars so still and saint-like,
Looking downward from the skies.
Uttered not, yet comprehended,
la the spirit’s voiceless prayer,
Soft rebukes, in blessing ended,
Breathing from her lips of air.
0, though oft depressed and lonely,
All my fears are laid aside,
If I but remember only
Such as these have lived and died.
European Intelligence per Atlantic.
The United States corvette St. Louis sailed
from Malta August 4, to the eastward. The
following memorandum has been communicated
by the Austrian Minister, for Foreign Affairs to
the ministers of the several foreign courts: —
The events of the 2d of July at Smyrna pre
sent in a double point of view a serious devi
ation from the rules of international law.
Ist. The commander of the United States ship
of-war Saint Louis threatened his Imperial Ma
jesty’s brig, the Hussar, with a hostile attack,
leveling his guns against the latter, and announ
cing, in writing, that if a certain individual, de
tained on board, and whose nationality was con
tested between the two agents of the two gov
ernments, was not surrendered to him at a cer
tain hour, he would take him by force.
2. This act of hostility was committed in the
port of a neutral power, the friend of the two
nations. No doubt the threat to attack the ship
of a Sovereign State, and which carries its flag,
is nothing less than a menace of war. Now the
right to make war is necessarily, and by the
very nature ot that right, inherent in the sov
ereign power. “ A right of such great impor
tance, (says Vattel, Law of Nations , volume 2,
book 3, chapter 1,) the right of judging whether
a nation has a real subject of complaint, if it be a
case to use force to take justly—if prudence per
mits it—if the good of the State requires it—this
right, I say, can only belong to the nation or to
the sovereign which represents it. It is no
donbt among the number of those rights without
which a government cannot be conducted in a
salutary manner, and which is called the right of
majesty.” The founders of the republic of the
United States of America have fully acknowl
edged, from the commencement of the Union,
the rights reserved for the sovereign power.
The articles of confederation and perpetual union
between the States of New Hampshire, Massa
chusetts, &c., of the 9th of July, 1778, contain
the following stipulations :—“ The Congress of
the United States shall alone,and exclusively,ex
ercise the right of declaring war and making
peace.”
This basis of the public law of North Ameri
ca has been maintained and sanctioned by the
constitution of the United States ot the 17th of
September. 1787, which in the Bfch section ex
plicitly reserves to the Congress the power of
declaring war. The constitution of the United
States is, in this respect, in perfect harmony
with the public law ot Europe. But this right,
which is reserved for the supreme power of each
State, would be illusory and null, if the com
manders of naval forces, or others, were author
ized, either explicitly or tacitly, to undertake,
either at their own suggestion, or at the com
mand or with the assent of a diplomatic or con
sular agent, acts of hostility or of war against
the ships or *roops of another nation, without a
special order from the supreme authority ot their
country, notified in the terms prescribed by the
law of nations. It is impossible that the regular
governments of the civilized world should expose
their authority, as well as the general peace, to
the chance of hostilities commenced without
the.r knowledge, and without the special au
thority of the sovereign power, by any function
ary in foreign parts. We arrive at the second of
the two questions of international law precise,
clear, and adopted by all nations in the world, it
is the inviolability of neutral ports, the absolute
prohibition to commit any acts of war or vio
lence there even against an enemy against whom
war bas been declared. xModern history affords
but few examples of the latter case. One of
those rare exmamples is the the attack of the
Dutch East Indian fleet which had entered the
port of Bergen, in Norway, by an enemy’s ad
miral ; and, although that attack was repulsed
by the cannon of the forts of the neutral port.
Vattel,an authority universally acknowledged'
on the law of nations, nevertheless, accuses
Denmark, the neutral power, of having com
pl ined too quietly of a preceding so injurious to
its dignity and its rights. In order the better
to establish the accord between all nations and
all legists on this question, we may quote the au
thority of an American statesman.
The following is the opinion pronounced by
Mr. Henry Wheaton:
The rights of war cannot be exercised except
within the territory of the belligerent powers, or
out at sea. or within a territory having no own
er. It follows that hostilities cannot be fairly
exercised within the territorial jurisdiction of the
neutral State, which is the common friend of the
two parties. Not only are all captures made by
belligerent crusiers within that jurisdiction ille
gal and null, but the captures made by ships of
war, which place themselves within bays, riv
ers, at the mouth of rivers, or in the harbors of
a neutral State, to exercise the rights of war
from that station, are likewise null. For exam
ple, when a British privateer stations herself in
the river Mississippi, in the neutral territory of
the United States, to exercise the right of war
from that point, by going and coming, by ob
taining information at Belise, and by searching
ships which were descending the river—when
this privateer, we repeat, effected a capture at
about three English miles from the islands of
sand formed at the mouth of the Mississippi, Sir
W. Scott ordered the restitntion of the captured
ship. On the same principle, when a belligerent i
ship, being within a neutral territory, effects a
capture with her boats outside of that territory,
the capture is considered null. For, although
the enemy’s force was employed against the
vessel captured without the territory, no one
can be permitted to make such use of a neutral
territory in order to carry on war.” (The An
na. November, 1805, Robinsn’s Admirality Re
ports, vol. 5, page 373.
If every act of hostility against a declared
enemy within the territorial jurisdiction of a
neutral State, which is on terms ot friendship
with the two parties, be disloyal—if captures
effected belligerent cruisers within the bays of
the neutral State, or even by boats of ships with
out the territory, whilst the ships remain within
it, are null and illegal according to the laws of
the United States, and according to the decrees
of the maritime tribunals of Great Britain, the
attack of a ship belonging to a friendly power
in a neutral port would merit to be still more
severely stigmatized.
The Turkish Question.—Loiters from St.
Petersburg of the 13th, state that there was n° i
alteration in general business. The Turkish j
question was looked on as settled, provided the i
Porte would accept the proposition of the four
Powers. It was added, u all unpleasantness will
soon disappear, as the Russian forces move home
wards.”
Russia was preparing another campaign against
the tributes of the Caucasus, and expected to
take the field about the end of August. A flotil
la was being armed on the Sea of Azof to sup
port the movements of the army.
The following private telegraphic dispatch was
received in Paris, via Trieste:
Constantinople, Aug. 13.—The council has
deliberated on the note of the powers. It is dis
posed to propose the acceptance of it to the Sul
tan.
The Constitutionel says it has been accepted
conditionally on the Russians evacuating the
principalities soon.
A dispatch from Bucharest, 10th, states that
the greatest excitement prevailed among the
Boyards, in consequence of a firman from the
Sultan dismissing the Hospodar for having re
ceived the Russians with too much favor. This
fiiman having been read to the Assembly of
Boyards, they petitioned the Hospodar to retain
his office, to which the Hospodar assented. Up
on this the consuls of France and Britain imme
diately suspended their relations with his gov
ernment. The French consul has placed his
countrymen under the protection of the Greek
Consul, while the British Consul has declear
ed to the British residents in the principali
ty, that he could no longer officially protect them,
since the Hospodar opposed his sovereign’s com -
mands.
England — Prorogation of Parliament —Par
liament was prorogued by commission, on Satur
day. 20th ult.
The Queen’s Speech.— My Lords and Gen
tlemen.— We are commanded by her Majesty to
release you from your attendance in Parliament,
and at the same time to express her Majesty’s
cordial approbation of the zeal and assiduity
with which, during a protracted and laborious
session, you have applied yourselves to the con
sideration of the many subjects of great impor
tance to the public welfare.
Her Majesty has seen with much satisfaction
that by the remission and reduction of taxes
which tended to cramp the operations of trade
and industry, you have given fresh extension to
a system of beneficent legislation, and have
largely increased the means of obtaining the
necessaries of life.
The provision which you have made for meet
ing the demands of the public service, not only
in the present, but also in future years, is of a
nature to give permanent stability to our finan
ces, and thereby to aid in consolidating the
strength and resources of the empire.
The buoyant state of the revenue, and the
steady progress of our foreign trade, are proof* of
the wisdom of the commercial policy now firmly
established ; while the prosperity which per
vades the great trading and producing classes,
happily, without even a partial exception, af
fords continued and increasing evidence of the
enlarged comforts of the people.
The measure w'hich you have passed for the
future government of India has been readily
sanctioned by her Majesty, in the persuasion
that it will prove to have been wisely framed,
and that it is well calculated to promote the im
provement and welfare of her Majesty’s Eas
tern dominions.
Her Majesty regards with peculiar satisfaction
the provision you have made for the better ad
ministration of charitable trusts. The obstacles
which existed to the just and beneficial use of
property set apart for the purposes of charity
and education, has been a serious public evil, to
which her Majesty is persuaded that, in your
wisdom, you have now applied an efficient rem
edy.
Gentlemen of the House of Commons.—
We are commanded by her Majesty to thank
you for the supplies which you have granted for
the service of the present year, and for the pro
vision which you have made for the defence of
the country, both by sea and land. Her Majes
; ty will apply them with a due regard to econo
my, and consistently with that spirit which has
: at all times made our national security the chief
object of her care.
My Lords and Gentlemen. —Her Majesty
commands us to inform you, that she continues
| to receive from her allies the assurance of their
unabated desire to cultivate the most friendly
j relations with this country.
It is with deep interest and concern that her
Majesty has viewed the serious misunderstand
| ing which has recently arisen between Russia
i and the Ottoman Porte.
The Emperor of the French has united with
; her Majesty in earnest endeavors to reconcile
| differences, the continuance of which might in
| volve Europe in war.
Acting in concert with her allies, and relying
on the exertions of the conference now assem
. bled at Vienna, her Majesty has good reason to
hope that an honorable arrangement will speedi
. ly be accomplished.
Her Majesty rejoices in being able to announce
to you the termination of the war on the fron
tiers of the settlement of the Cape of Good Hope,
and she trusts that the establishment of a repre
sentative government in that colony may lead
to the development of its resources, and enable
; it to make efficient provision for its future de
fence.
We are also commanded to congratulate you,
that, by the united exertions of the naval "and
military forces of her Majesty and of the East
India Company, the war in Buimah has been
brought to an honorable and successful issue.
The objects of the war having been fully attain
ed, and due submission made by the Burmese
government, peace bas been proclaimed.
Her Majesty contemplates with grateful satis
faction and thankfulness to Almighty God, the
j tranquility which prevails throughout her domin
ions. together with that peaceful industry and
obedience to thp laws which ensure the welfare
j of all classes of her subjects. It is the first desire
of her Majesty to promote the advance of every
social improvement, and with the aid of your
wisdom, still further to extend the prosperity
and happiness of her people.
The Chancellor then declared Parliment pro
j rogued until Thursday, Oct. 27. Before closing
up, in the Commons, Mr. Monkton Milnes took
j occasion to ask Lord Palmerston if he was able
ito give any assurance to the House as to the
moral confidence which the government enter
tained with respect to the evacuation of the
Danubian principalities, so as to enable Parlia
ment to be prorogued without anxiety. To this
one point the attention of the country was main
ly directed.
Lord Palmerston replied—The answer as to the
confidence her Majesty’s government may be
given in the shortest possible space, namely :
their belief that Parliament may be safely pro-
I roged under present circumstances. With re
gard to the evacuation of the principalities, I can
i only say that I am confident that the Emperor of
Russia, having that due regard for his honor and
character which every sovereign of a great coun
ry must always be inspired by, will take the
earliest opportunity, after the settlement with
Turkey, and of his own accord will make a
merit of evacuating the principalities without
: the slightest delay. That is my confident ex
pectation and belief.
After this agreeable announcement,the Speak
er shook hands with Lord Palmerston, who re
presented the Cabinet, and the members took
their hats and went their respective ways.
Remarking on the Queen’s speech, the London
Times congratulates itself that the state of the
country fully bears out the language used by her
Majesty. It felicitates Parliament on the abun
dant reform in store next session, and on the
large amount of important legislation that has
been accomplished during the past session. One
session (it says,) has settled for good and for ever
the long vexed question of free trade, abolished a
heavy duty on soap, reduced one on tea, re-ar
ranged trie income tax, and provided a perma
nent substitute, modified the great part of the
customs and excise, including those very impor
tant parts which relate to the public press of the
country and the public vehicles of the metropo
lis ; remodelled the constitution of the Indian
empire ; removed the last restrictions on naviga
tion, and rescued the menagement of charitable
trusts from the malversation which has diverted
millions upon millions from their proper uses
and rendered the very name of charity ridicu-
The Morning Chronicle says the speech
offers little room for criticism. The other me
tropolitan papers pass it over with little remark.
New Saw Mill. —Among the many substan
tial signs of improvement going on in our favor
ed city, we yesterday noticed a new saw mill
about two hundred yards from the railroad
bridge. The bui!ding,when finished, will be
one hundred feet in and twenty-five feet
in width. It has a portable Engine of eighteen
horse power, driving a circular saw of fifty-two
inches diameter, and will cut on an average 5,000 j
feet of Mercantile Lumber per day. It is esti- I
mated that the Saw will cut through a log 25 .'
feet in length in one minute. The engine, boiler I
and running gear are from the manufactory of
John R. Anderson, of Richmond, Va., and the
mill is owned by Messrs. C. H. & Wm. H. Mc-
Leod, also of Richmond. We hail with pleas
ure this accession to our industry and enterprise,
and wish these men abundant success in their
business.— Sav. Rep.. Bth inst.

Have They a Reason.
Have the presses and stump-speakers of the
Webster party, who are now waging war upon
President Pierce’s administration, any good
and sufficient reason for their conduct? Mr.
Toombs said, only one year ago, that General
Pierce had been ‘‘a very consistent man in all
his Congressional career; that he had always
acted with the South, and was the safest man,
on the slavery question, North of Mason and
Dixon’s line.” The Washington Gazette,
whose language we quote, was rather shocked at
such praise, and u thought that Mr. Toombs
lauded the democratic candidate too highly.”—
But who has changed since September last?
Not President Pierce. He has indicated his pol
icy and the principles which would guide him
in the administration of the Government in his
Inaugural address, which has met the warm ap
proval of even his political enemies. Has he
recommended any measures of foreign or domes
tic policy to which any man of any party could
object? Not a sylable has he uttered or written
to which exception could be taken since the de
livery of his Inaugural. He has had no oppor
tunity of doing so, for he became president only
the 4th of March last, six months ago. Con
gres has not since been in session. No opportu
nity has been afforded the President for indica
ting the policy of principles ot his administra
tion farther than these were contained in his In
augural address. We have every confidence
that when these are brought before Congress for
its consideration, they will do honor to the con
i sistency and statesmanship of one of the purest
patriots our country has ever produced. But the
pretext for outcry that has been raised bv the
1 Webster party of Georgians the appointments.
Was there ever a more ridiculous humbug con
cocted by men of sens= ? That a President of
' the United States should be condemned—not for
the measures he recommends—not for the policy
he adopts—but for the selection of his inferior
agents, is preposterous;—espacially so, when,in
the judgement of his accusers and revilers, nine
teen twentieths of his appointments are unex
ceptionable. What a pity it is that the change
lit gs who tolerated so charitably Mr. Fillmoie’s
freesoil appointments, could not appreciate and
adopt the noble spirit of the whig who said, “ I
will wait to see what measures President Pierce
will recommend. I will judge him by the policy
of his administration. He may select such
agants as he pleases to fill the subordinate offi
ces. I will not condemn him lor that, if his ad
ministration shall be conducted on proper prin
ciples.” Here was an example of a right spirit
—of just judgement—of true honor.” How un
like the causeless snarling of his traducers.—Ma

Wiiy Mr. Buchanan never Married. —A
correspondent of the New Haven Palladium,
writing lrom Lancaster, Pennsylvania, briefly
records the reason : “ A short distance from the
city is the country residence of Hon. James Bu
chanan, American Ambassador to the Court of
St. James. Its general appearance at once in
dicates that no fair hand is there to train the
creeping vines or budding roses to their befitting
place—as you are aware that the honorable gen
tleman still remains in single blessedness ! The
story is briefly told. Paying his addresses to a i
young and beautiful lady of this city, each be- I
come deeply enamored, and they were engaged. 1
On a given evening she requested his company j
to a party at a friend’s, which he declined on
the plea of business engagements. Circum
* stances rendering it necessary, he, late in the
evening, gallanted a young lady to her home, and
on the way— they met. Mortified and chagrined
at what she deemed unfaithfulness and desertion,
and imagining the worst, she left the city early
in the morning, and returned— a corpse , Such is
the sad story of his early love, nor can the high
places of distinction and trust make him foiget,
nor the wreaths of honor that encircle his brow
bury the memory of the early loved and lost!’
Hon. A. H. Chappell, addressed the citizens I
of Atlanta, on Saturday night last, at the Ma- I
con & Western Depot, in one of the most mas
terly and eloquent speeches we have heard du- \
ring the cornpaign. His plain and lucid exposi- :
tion of the subject of the Executive appoint- j
meuts was a most complete vindication of the !
policy of Gen. Pierce, from the electioneering 1
abuse and misrepresentation of the Whig news- 1
papers and stump orators. He spoke with a
degree of earnestness and genuine sincerity of
feeling throughout his entire address, that can
only come from a consciousness of being enlist
ed on the side of truth and justice.
“ Thrice is he armed who hath his quarrel just,
And he but naked, though locked up in steel,
Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.”
Mr. Chappell was one of the strongest and •
most efficient Union Democrats in Georgia, du-j
ring the excitiug scenes of 1850 and ’sl, but I
now that the issues which divided political par- J
ties in those contests are definitely settled, he is 1

Death of Mr. H. F. Watkins.
The numerous friends of this gentleman, re
cently an operator in the Telegraph Office in
this city, will learn with regret of hi 3 death at
New Orleans, on Thursday morning last, at 11
o’clock, of the prevailing epidemic. Mr. Wat
kin's, we believe, was a native of Virginia.
As a mark of respect to his memory, the Pre

closed on Sunday next.
Madame Adolphe
Still holds her levees at the Globe Hotel, and
the number of visitors are daily increasing.
She calls herself a Sympathist; but let her be
Sympathist, Phrenologist or Physiognomist, she
seems to be successful in describing the various
characters of those who call on her.
We paid her a visit yesterday, and she gave us
a better history of the past and present con
cerning ourself, than w T e could write out. The
future, she also brought to view, and should it
turn out as correct as the past was given, we
shall not regret our visit.
The Weather. —We understand, says the
Savannah Republican, of the Bth, that the rains
experienced in this neighborhood last week were
very general throughout the country. A friend
informs us that copious showers fell along the
counties bordering on the coast south of this
city, where, in many places it was much needed.
Rains have been abundant, also in the central
part’ of Borgia, and in South Carolina the riv
ers are very full. Tbe St. Augustine Ancient
City, of the3J, says that “on Thursday last the
weather was cloudy, with heavy showers from
the east and south-east.” For three days past
we have had most delightful, bright and pleas
ant weather in this city.
Arrest of a Judge for a Violent Alsault.
—Judge Flinn,of the Criminal Court of Cincin
nati, was arrested on Friday, and held to bail on
a charge of making a violent assault upon Mr.
Jolliffe, a Lawyer. It appears Mr. J. took a
leading part in the meeting held the previous
evening, to urge the Legislature to impeach the
Judge, and at an early hour on Friday morning
as Mr. J. with his wife and niece, was proceed
ing to market, he was struck a violent blowi
which felled him to the ground. The blows
were repeated several times, until Marshal Ruf
fin ran up, and seized the offender, discovered
him to be Judge Flinn. Several of his friends,
it is alledged, were present as spectators of the
assault.
New Work.
We have received from the publishers, Messrs.
H. Long & Brothers, New York, a copy of a
new work just issued from their press, entitled—
“ The Lawyer’s Story,or the Orphan’s Wrongs,”
written by a member of the New York Bar.
It professes to be a romance founded on fact.—
We have not had time to give it a perusal, but
would judge from its title page, and the pains ta
ken in getting it up, that it is an interesting
wrork.
G. P. Putnam & Co., it is stated, have been
making out an application for an injunction to
prevent Messrs. Harper & Brothers from selling
the September number of their Magazine, con
taining “ Uncle Bernard’s Story,” which origin
ally appeared in the June number of Putnam’s
Monthly, duly copywrighted.
The fire at Augusta, Maine, on Saturday morn
ing (already reported) destroyed six saw mills,
machine shops, sash and blind manufactories.—
the valuable grist mill (the best in the State,)
built by the late Joseph D. Emery, Esq. and re
cently owned by Judge Rine and the heirs of
Mr. Emery—all the dry houses with their con
tents—the large kianizing shop recently owned
by the Kennebec and Portland Co., and which
was purchased a few days since by the Water
Tower Company—a large borrding house, and
all the stock and tools of the whole range ot
buildings.
Nothing but the old saw mill owned by Hen
ry Williams is left on the site. The dam and
bulk bead of the canal w'ere so much injured
that operations in the cotton factory will have
to be suspended for the present. Among the
principal sufferers are the Messrs. Williamson,
Mr. Atkins, and Messrs. Harden and Lelland,

The Wilkes Republican.
This is the title of a new Whig paper just
started in Washington, Wilkes county, by J. R.
1 Sneed, Esq , the first number of which reached
us yesterday. Its typography is very neat, and
i its selections show much judgment.
We copy from it the following enquiry con
{ cerning J. J. Jones, Esq., the nominee of the
j Administration and Johnson party of the Bth
1 Congressional District.
“Mr. Stephens’ Competitor.— The South
! ern Rights men in the lower part of this district
have run up the flag of a Mr. Jones, of Burke
I county, for Congress. This being the first inti
■ mation we have received of there being such a
man in the District, we are unable, for the pre
sent, to say aught either for or against him
We hope the Constitutionalist will give us the
grounds of his claims to this distinguished hon
or,”
For the information of the Republican, we
will state, that Mr. Jones is a talented young
lawyer,born and raised in the county of Burke ;
| a strong friend of the present Administration,and
supporter ot Judge Johnson. He has taken the
stump in support of bis principles, and made and
accepted several appointments to address the vo
ters of the Bth District j would be pleased to
meet Mr. Stephens at either,and is willing when
i the first Monday in October arrives, for the peo
ple to express their judgment by their votes.—
He has a heavy majority to contend against, but
is nothing daunted thereby. Mr. Stephens will
find him a troublesome customer.
Wilkes Railroad. —The Wilkes Republican
ot the Bth says: We are gratified to be able to
state that the cars are now running to a point on
the outskirts of our town, and distant but a plea
sant evening’s walk from the Public Square.—
The appearance of the Iron Horse has created no
little excitement among the young folk, who.
together with a considerable “sprinkling” of
“children of a larger growth,” congregate, in full
force to greet its daily arrivals. The superstruc
ture is rapidly being laid on the few hundred
yards that remain, and it is estimated that the
entire structure will be completed and ready for '
business during the present week. We v cu-d
state for the information of planters and the tra- !
veiling public, that due notice’ will be given by
the authorities of the road as soon as they are
ready to receive freight and dispatch it by a re* I
gular train.
The Missouri River has opened for itself a
new outlet into the Mississippi. On Saturday
week it succeeded in cutting a new mouth, or
debouch, into the Mississippi, across the point of
land lying about half a mile above where it has
run of late years. It now strikes the Mississip
pi in a direction which is likely to prevent the
washing of the Illinois or eastern shores to any
injurious extent. At the last accounts two
steamers had passed through the new chute, and
this may now be regarded as the main channel
of the Missouri.
Dangerous Bank Bills. —The Boston Travel
ler cautions its readers against receiving bills
purporting to be the issue of a Bank called the
Mechanics’Bank of Georgetown, D. C. They
are of the denomination of ones and three, dated
October, 1352, and signed F. W. Conch, cashier,
and G. Myers, President. These bills are fraudu
lent, no such bank being in existence.
British seamen (says a correspondent of the
London Times) speak very disrespectfully of the
talents of Russian sailors in handling their ships.
It seems that the greater part of the vessels are
older than deal-built ships can generally be kept
water-tight, and that the slightest approach to
rough weather compels a very numerous and
strenous attendence of hands at tho pumps.—
Jack says they daren’t put out to sea even in
fair weather, lor fear it should turn out foul be
fore they can get back into port. The Russian
sailors are admitted, however, to be good gunners.
The Exports of Dry Goods from Liverpool
and Glasgow to the United States, from May 1

We learn from the Washington Star, that a
despatch has been received from Pansacola, say
ing that Commodore Tatnall, (the commander
of the yard there,) whose alarming illness we
have announced, was dead, and that the viru
lence of the fever was such as to have compelled
the remaining authorities to close the Pensacola
Navy Yard, and move all hands some distance
up the river.
rCops in Europe. —The Excitement in the
BreadstuJTs 1 Markets —The correspondent of the
New York Commercial, under date of the 22d
ult., thus writes of the excitement in the bread
stuffs’ markst:
The intelligence u’hich you received by the
last packet, of the King of Naples having de
creed the admittance of grain of all kinds into
that country, duty "free, until December next,
produced a decided effect on the London corn
market, which was further greatly increased by
the measure just mentioned as having been a
uopted in France. It is now admitted to be
unquestionable that the harvest in Italy and the
Souih of France will be seriously deficient, and
all the purchases of wheat, &c., in the Black Sea
have lately taken place with a view to the
wants of those countries, while within the last
few days our market has likewise been resorted
to for the same purpose.
The large stocks of Odessa wheat taken by
our capitalists during the past month or two,
will therefore yield splendid profits. Mean
while the harvest throughout Great Britain is
going on much more favorable than was ever an
ticipated. The improvement in this respect,how
ever, has not been followed by a fall in prices.
That event wou’d have occurred but it has been
wholly counteracted by the continental demand.
Indeed, from this latter cause the buoyancy of
quotations has been remarkable, and from the
recent fall ol 12 per cent, a recovery has now
occurred of about 8 or 9 per cent., the advance
obtained yerterday on the best qualities of Eng
lish wheat being as much as 4s. sterling per
quarter.
To avoid being misled by this excitement,
however, will be well for your merchants to bear
in mind that much of the present high price
arises solely from scjthearcity of freight in the
Black Sea—a circumstance that will soon find
its cure, and produce a re-action. According to
the last advices from Odessa the rates paid so
vessels to this country were 15s. per ton forr
tallow, and 15s. Sd. per quarter, (equal to $3 90)
f for wheat.
[From the Savannah Georgian, Bth inst .]
The Contrast.
Whilst the Democratic press has been courte
r ous in regard to the candidate of the “ Conseva
-1 tives,” Mr. Jenkins, and has not denied to him
r talents or patriotism, we regret to say that the
“ Conservative” organs have, with hardly an
exception, pursued Judge Johnson with a viru
• lence and bitterness altogether discreditable.—
i Without intending to palliate such conduct on
1 the part of Judge Johasori’s political foes, we
, suppose the cause of their violence is easy of ex
t planation. Defeated on every issue presented
! to the American people by the two parties—
, Democratic an Whig—the Whigs must have
, come to the reasonable conclusion that their
, policy is not the one for the people, and that un
der their old name constant anil continued de
-1 feat must be inevitable. Hence, at the late Pre
■ sidential contest in Georgia, they were divided
in counsel and divided in action. The more
l partisan, if not the most consistent portion, re
mained true to the national organization, and
supported Gen. Scott, leading, it is true, a ‘ for
lorn hope,” but leading it under the name of a
national and a party fraternization. The other
■ portion, as a body, with Jenkins as their can
didate for Vice President, went into the support
of a policy still more doubtful of success, pro
-1 mising not even the forlorn hope of the Scott
men. They were designated as “ textium quids,”
and as a party, or a faction, left no trace behind
them by which their history could be written,
except that as they were no party and had no’
particular principles, they neither helped them
selves nor hurt the Democrats. Pierce was
elected, Scott defeated, and the Webster men had
not quite votes enough to call for a count at
Washington. With these results the political
campaign opened in Georgia in 1853. What
were the Whigs to do? As a paity they were
undone, and with no prospect of a coalition with
a sufficient number of Democrats, under a “ Con
stitutional Union” organization,to insure success
they bodly let go the name Whig, and, as occa
sion required, or convenience or necessity suited
they took up the name of“ Republican Citizens,”’
“Conservatives,” “Union Conservatives,” &e.
Amongst the politicians in Georgia who did
most to unite the Democratic party and blast the
prospect of the. Whig affiliation with any portion
of them, was Judge Johnson. Hence the oppo
sition of Whigs to him ; hence the cruel and ve
nomous shafts which have been aimed at him
by the “ Conservative presses in Georgia. Gov
erned by political piincipie,Judge Johnson would
not suffer tha temporary separation of portions
of the Democratic party, on questions of tem
porary existence, to alienate him, or those under
his influence, from the mass of the Democratic
party. In a coi.test with that party, Whigs
know they have nothing to hope under the
Whig banner. Hence their readiness to discard
their name, and to brand Judge Johnson as a
disunionist. Hence, we suppo e, the denial by
Mr. Jenkins of being in the field as a national
Whig, when recently interrogated on that point
at Calhoun, as stated by the last Rome Southern
er. Why is not Mr. Jenkius a national Whi« »
Was he not a friend of the Fillmore administra
tion ? Has he not denied that he was ever “ De
mocratized ?” Does he believe less in the con
stitutionality of a National Bank,orahigh tariff
ll 1 ® . limitation of the veto power, or anv other
Whig doctrine? Does he really believe the
Union would be in danger from the election of
- Johnson, or that “ Republican Citizens” «
could better guide the councils of the State
than a Democratic administration ? Why, then,
should he be elected ? No reason has been given, |
and none, we belie.ve, will be given satisfactory ,
to the people.
We learn from a gentleman who came down
from Camden yesterday, that no danger was ap
prehended from freshets in the Congaree and
Wateree Rivers, as they were both falling when
he crossed them in the cars. The Wateree had
risen within five feet of the freshet of August of
last year, and a very considerable raft had collect
ed above the Railroad Bridge, but a large force
was at work removing it, and no interruption on
that branch of the road was anticipated. A ne
gro belonging to Mr. Thomas McCaw, of Cam
den, whilst engaged on the raft fell into the riv
er and was drowned.
We understand, also, that the rains last week,
above Columbia, in the north-western portion of
the State, were partial and not very heavy, and
the water courses not above ordinary high water
mark.— Charleston Courier , B th inst.
Manufactures in the United States.—
The entire capital invested in the various manu
factures in the United States, on the Ist of June,

The Weather and the Crops.— We re
ceived by yesterday’s mail, the following letter,
dated, Cartersville, Ga., Sept. 7.
Ihe crops in this part of Georgia are quite
fine, commencing with a most bountiful Wheat
harvest. Corn is very good—a heavy crop will
reward the toils of the husbandman. Cotton
looks well and promises a full yield ; already are
our planters picking out this valuable commodi
ty and peacekeeper, and our little village has
already had its “ fiist bale.”— Charleston Courier.
Philadelphia. Sept. 6.— Meeting; of the Grand
Lodge of Odd Fellows. —Mayor Gilpin officially
welcomed the members of the Grand Lodge of
Odd Fellows in Independence Hall this morning,
and was replied to by Deputy Grand Sire Hor
ace L. Manchester, of Rhode Island, M. W.
Grand Sire W. W. De Sausure being absent
from sickness. Col. Seymoure, of South Car
olina, also made an eloquent and appropriate ad
dress.
All at One Fell Swoop. —The Philadelphia
Ledger mentions a singular mortality in the
New Orleans associate office of the mercantile
agency of Wm. Goodrich & Co., of that city.
All the clerks died successively and then the
agent. The doors were locked up by the porter,
a colored man, who also died the day after he
had telegraphed the state of things to the prin
cipal office.
The Plank Road t o Elberton.— We are
much gratified to perceive that this important
project, which was talked of a few years ago, is
beginning to engage the serious attention of our
citizens. We have ever looked upon it with the
deepest interest, and shall most cordially lend all
our aid to further the success of the cause. We
believe the people on both sides of the river are
ripe for the question, and there is no better time
to get up and push forward the movement than
now. We have not room or leisure this week
for the purpose, but shall take up the subject, for
a discussion of its merits, at an early day.—
Wilkes Republican , Bth inst.
Extract from a letter received in Charleston dated ,
New Orleans, Sept. 2, 1853.
“In regard to the growing crop, the advices
prior to the Ist of July were generally favorable,
but th£ heavy rains of the last two months have
caused the plant, in many sections, to shed its
fruit, and we hear serious complaints from this
cause, from this State and Mississippi. From
Texas, Arkansas, and a portion of the Red River
Country, the accounts promise a fine yield, and
from Alabama the reports are encouraging.—
With this report of the crop, and taking into
view the increased extent of land planted, we
have every reason to anticipate a yield fully
equal to the last, should the fall prove propitious.
The crop is, undoubtedly, more backward than
last season, and will be late in coming forward.
Os course the yield would be seriously cur
tailed should there be an early frost, or the crop
suffer from the ravages of the worm, &c„ and
these are sufficient reasons for our not ventur
ing any estimate at this moment.”
Startling Feat.
A Paris correspondent of the New York
Times gives the following account of the latest
amusement devised for the wonder-loving Pa
risians :
The feat of jumping from a balloon, the jump
er sustained by an India rubber rope, was duly
performed on Thursday. It was the most stu
pendous exhibition of daring and address that the
Parisians have yet been permitted to witness.—
From one side of the car of the balloon hung the
India-rubber cord, descending 150 feet, and then
returning and being fastened to the other side of
the car. It thus formed a strong loop. The
athelete was dressed as Mercury; his body, from
the neck to the small of his back, was enclosed
in a frame work, which enabled him to endure
the suspension without w renching or disloca
tion. The rope passed through an eyelet in the
middle of the back, placed so that he was held
in perfect equilibrium. When the balloon had
reached an altitude double that of the supposed
elasticity of the cord, the voltigeur appeared on
the edge of the car, looked over, shut his eyes,
and dove off into space. The eyelet slipped a
long the rope, so that the first 150 feet were a
positive fall through the air, without any resis
tance or break. The rest of the way was an
elongation of the rope. It stretched four times
its length, making in all a descent of 600 feet ac
complished in two seconds.
After having attained its lowest point, the
rope contracted once, perhaps 200 feet, and then
descended again. There was no further rebound,
and no oscillation; the voltigeur lay calmly cra
dled in midair, and probably spent the leisure he
was now permitted to enjoy, in recovering his
breath and contemplating the prospect.
seronaut above now commenced at the windlass,
and gradually wound his dangling friend up a
gain. In four minutes he climbed over the side
of the car, having made the fastest time that any
human being ever achieved, except such as have
been shot lrom a cannon, as Baron Munchausen
said he was. 1 think, COO feet in two s- conds is
at the rate of three miles and a half a minute.—
We are waiting now to know what will be done
next.
This is certainly a startling feat, but not half
so startling as the fact that the law of gravita
tion operates differently in Paris from what it
does in any other known part of the globe. Ac
cording to this law, a body rails sixteen feet the
first second of time, and in two seconds it will
have fallen a height of sixty-four feet. How
the man fell six hundred feet in two seconds, is
more a subject of wonder than the feat which is
so minutely described for our admiration. Per
haps the French Academy of Science will take
the matter into consideraiion and give a rational
explanation of the “Phenomenon.”
