<?o set thy house iu order now,

I hat bids thee to prepare—
there is now no time to parley,

The warning is to thee—

An open full and free;
The gospel s now inviting all

The Savior blest, is waiting still,
Sinner, on me, and you.
Oh ! do not make the vain excuse ;
Thy life is but a span ;
Oh ! say notstiil. ’tis time enough.
Pro rastinating man ;
The warning has been given you,
The watchman on the wall,
Has seen the sword approaching fast,
And b.os “ prepare to lall !”
Tis now insulted justice’ claim,
That must be satisfied ;
The barren tree’s been watered well,
By many a gushing tide ;
But still no fruit—no flowers yet!
Amidst its leaves are found,
It only yields a deadly shade,
To younger plants around.
Tis mercy that has spar'd the tree ;
Her cry would always be,
111 tend it well another year,
Its fruit you then shall see ;
But spring is gone; and summer now
Has nearly pass'd away—
And nought that barren tree doth show,
But ruin and decay !
And now, go get thee ready, man,
For death is at the door ;
Though an unwelcomed visitor
His entrance will bo sure:
In vain your prayer for mercy—
Relentless death has none 1
And e’er an autumn sun has set,
Hisvict’ry shall be won !

Trial of Bishop Doane.
Camden, N. J., Sept. 6.—The Court of Bish
ops re-assemoled this morning, and after prayer
by Bishop Polk, of La., proceeded with the case
of Bishop Doane.
Before the court adjourned yesterday, after de
ciding not to admit the commsitee of the New
Jersey Diocese, Bishop Bronnell, one of those
who voted in the negative, as would appear, on
the ground that he deemed it illegal to admit a
third party, (not the Bishop,) yet willing to hear
the Diocese, moved that the court hear the Dio
cese through the respondent, Bishop Doane.
This motion was the first business in order
this morning, when the court again excluded the
respondent and prosecuting Bishops whilst de
liberation was had on the motion.
The vote yesterday on the rejection of the mo
tion to admit the Diocese was as follows:—Yeas,
Bishops Kemper of Wisconsin, McCoskry of
Michigan, Delaney of Western New York,Whit
tingham ot Maryland, Chase of New Hamp
shire, Upfold of Indiana, Greene of Mississippi,
Rutledge of Florida, and Wainwright—nine.
Nays—Bishops Brownell of Connecticut, Hop
kins of Vermont, Smith of Kentucky, Polk of
Louisiana. Elliott of Georgia, Lee of Delaware,
Johns (assistant) of Virginia, Eastman of Mas
sachusetts, Potter of Pennsylvania, Otey of Ten
nessee, Williams (assistant) of Connecticut,
Freeman of Texas—twelve.
In regard to the memorial by 130 persons,sup
posed to be members of the Diocese of New Jer
sey, an explanation is necessary. Bishop Meade,
in his speech on Saturday, alluded to the memo
rial as having impelled him to make a present
ment. Bishop Doane, in reply, said that he and
his friends had heard of it, but never had been
able to see it, or ascertain the names by which
it was said to be signed. They accordingly be
lieved them to have been clandestinely obtained.
He demanded to see the memorial, as a right.
Bishop Meade replied, that he should have
them, but on the court meeting yesterday morn
ing he declined lurnishing the memorial, on the
ground that Bishops Burgess and Mcllvaine ob
jected. When the prosecuting Bishops made
their argument yesterday, and submitted the le
gal opinion of John C. Spencer, they did not an
nounce the name of the author, but said it was
the opinion of a distinguished jurist. Bishop
Doane demanded the name of the author. The
prosecution refused to give it. Bishop Doane
then appealed to the court and was sustained.—
The prosecution then announced Mr. Spencer as
the author Bishop Doane then charged them
with having violated the canon which prohibits
prosecutors from having counsel, unless the re
spondent is allowed the same advantage. The
debate was continued until noon without com
ing to any decision.
[second despatch.]
Camden, Sept. 6.—The court of Bishops final
ly took a vote on the proposition for hearing the
Diocese of New Jersey through the respondent,
and the motion was lost—yeas 10, nays 11.
A resolution was then unanimously adopted,
giving Bosnop Doane permission to read any
document on his own responsibility, but not as
coming trom a third party.
Bishop Doane then went into court and asked
whether such documents as he might read would
be entered on the journal. This question was
not decided at a late hour this evening
|third despatch.]
Philadelphia, Sept 6—l learn that in the
Court ot Bishops the motion that the diocese of
New Jersey be heard through Bishop Doane
was not voted down, but was withdrawn by the
mover, Bishop Brownell.
Bishop Johns then proposed an order that the
court entirely recognise the right of Bishop
Doane to lay before the couit the results of inves
tigations caused to be made by the diocese of N.
Jersey into the truth of the charges made in the
former presentment. The motion was rejected
by a tie vote.
Bishop Elliott offered an order that at this or
any subsequent stage of the proceedings, the
court will cheerfully hear from the respondent
the results of the investigation by the diocese of
New Jersey into the charges. Adopted unani
mously.
Bishop Doane said that while he was thank
fur for small favors, be regarded this as none at
all, and considered the action altogether as a re- ?
jection of his diocese.
Before proceeding with his argument on the
second motion proposed by him, that the pre
sentment be dismissed, Bishop Doane put the
question, 4, 1 s it the meaning of the order just a
dopted that respondent may now present to the
court the papers prepared by the committee of
his diocese, together with the testimony and acts
of the Convent on, and that said matters will be
entered upon the journal? 7 ’
After private deliberation, the court replied,
“That it would hear respondent read any paper
prepared by the commiitee of the diocese, and
enter said testimony and acts upon the journal.
Adopted—yeas 16, nays 4. The court then ad
journed until Wednesday.
Philadelphia, Sept 7.— The court of Bishops
- re-assembled at Camden this morning. After
debate a motion to rescind so much of the order
of the court which permitted the respondent to
read the evidence taken by his dioces, was re
jected.
After a long secret session on order was pass
ed, setting forth that the court distinctly declares
that it does not recognfze any right in the con
vention of the diocese of New Jersey to appear
as a party before this court.
Bishop Doane was then admitted, together
with his presenters, and made a speech on his
motion that the presentment be dismissed. He
also read thp report of the committee of the dio
cese protesting against the present action of the
court. Having concluded, the court was again
cleared to deliberate, pending which an adjourn
ment was carried till to-morrow. (
The German Turner’s National Festival I
AT IVew York.— The German Turners are now 1
enjoying their annual festival at New York On 5
Mondry mowing at 7J o’cbck, the Turners of.
Now York assembled at their headquarters in
rational Hall where the sneaker of the Balti
more I urner Society, Mr. Moser, presented the
Turners of New York with a beautiful silver
horn, as a token of respect for their achieve
ments in the cause, on the part of the Turners
ot Baltimore. The speaker accompanied the gift
with a few appropriate remarks, saying that it
w T as the wish of all those whom he represented I
that, when this horn called them either to the
defence of the liberties of this country, or for the
obtaining of those of the land of their childhood,
the Turners, to whom this present was being
made by their brethren, would readily and
cheerfully follow the lead. May it be a sign of
courage in the hour of danger: a sign of victory
after battles. The Turnwaits (manager) of the
Society of New York, Mr. Denzler, accepted the
horn in the name of his brethren, making few
remarks in answer to the patriotic words of the
speaker from Baltimore.
A procession half a mile long was then form
ed and, accompanied by four bands of music,
they proceeded to the cars, which conveyed
them to the Harlem Pleasure Gardens. A large
number of delegations from the distant cities
were present. Louisville, Ky., was even repre
sented. At the Gardens an address was deliv
ered, and various gymnastic feats were per
formed. The Tribune says :
After these exercises were over, the Turners
dispersed all over the Garden, and imbibed free
ly of the refreshments at the different stands,
but no liquor was sold, and we did not observe
one drunken man ; on the contrary, all enjoying
themselves in a social manner as much as the
prevailing h-at would allow. In the course of
the day a great many people, mostly Germans,
but also some Ameiicans, men women and
children, rode up to the Garden, and we presume
that at four o’clock in the afternoon not less
than five thousand persons were present.
The whole garden was like a camp. Groups
of singers were spread all over it, and when the
Glee Club commenced the song—
“Frei wiedes adlers maecntige Gafahie,”
the hearts of ail present beat in joyful emotion.
About 3 o’clock in the afternoon, the Turners of
the other cities took a frugal dinner—the New
Yorkers chosing individually their own time and
convenience. After the dinner was over, the
gymnastic performances commenced anew, and
were again carried out remarkably well.
About 6 o’clock the Turners assembled at the
calling of the Turnwart’s horn, and after having
tormed in procession, made their way to the
city.
Yesterday morning at 9 o’clock they were to
wait upon the Mayor and Common Council.

The Dry Goods Market.
There has been a very fair trade during the
month, both in Domestic and Foreign Goods
Prices have ruled steady. The difficulties of the
money market had no immediate effect on the
trade, as it was singularly well supplied with
money from the steadiness of its own returns.—
Its receipts were large, and fewer acceptances of
country customers had to be renewed than usual.
Stocks are not large, even of Foreign Goods,
though the importations have been large and
mostly entered for consumption—few going into
I store. The consumption of the country is very
| large and extended, and requires increased im
j ports for its supply. The sure mark of there be
: ing no goods in material excess is that holders
are firm in price. At the close, and as we write,
! the demand is increasing; and September will
prove a very active month. Jobbers were never
so busy—never so pleased with their present
and prospective trade—and never more flush of
; money than they are now.
We particularize as follows:
domestics.
; Brown Sheetings and Shirtings are not in
great stock. Favorite styles are rather in scan
ty supply, and in quick demand. Both heavy
and medium styles are selling to arrive. Prices
are buoyant.
Bleached Sheetings and Shirtings are also in
moderate stock. Fine grades sell quickly at
12£ al3 cents. Medium 4-4 are scarce.
Drills are Jess active, but not in heavy stock.
Browns at 8 cts; bleached, 8}; and blues, 9J :
are Him, but not buoyant.
Cotton Flannels arq very active at full prices.
Osnaburgs are in low stock, and the supply is
below the demand, both of 4-4 and 7-8 goods;
prices consequently are looking up.
Denims sell briskly as soon as they arrive, at
10 cents. There is no stock.
Strip s and Ticks are in good assortment,
with a good home demand, at steady prices.
Printing Cloths have rather declined, and the
demands is very slack, with some accumulation
;of stock. The quotations are—
-40x44 45 56x60 55
44x48 55 60x64 65
48x52 5f 64x68 6f
52x56 5| 68x72 6f
Prints have been and continue in active de
mand. Good madders sell at 95 all cents. —
j The supply is good and varied, and iuvites a de
mand. The consumption ot this article is always
i large.
i Ginghams are steady. The leading styles re
alize 11 cts. quickly, with little stock.
De Laines are in brisk consumption, at good
remunerating prices. The new goods sell as
soon as they arrive. Hamilton and Manches
ter at 18 a 20 cents for fine to good dark styles,
and 22 a 225 tor high colors. Fine Manchester
are quick at 22J a 25 cents.
Woolens are all firm in price. Heavy brown
and black Cloths are selling moderately at
i $1.45 a $1 75. Good Beavers at $1,875 a
$2 25.
Fancy styles of Casimere are in moderate ac
! tivity. at $1 00 a $1,125 for common, and $1 37.}
a $1.50 for finer grades. Plain styles are in good
request, and steady in price. Satinets are firm,
and lower grades are active. Tweeds are inac-
I tive. Linseys are in light stock, but good as
sortment. The sales are 20 a2? cents, mostly
20 a2l cents. Flannels are getting scarce and
dear, especially scarlets and orange, at 25 cents.
The lower qualities move most freely. Blank
ets are in poor stock, but are in request at rising
prices.
A Thrilling Scene. —A few days since, as
| the express train tor Baltimore was passing the
vicinity of Naaman’s ereek, at the rate of torty
miles an hour, a horrifying sight was witnessed
by those having charge of the train. A man,
apparently a fisherman, inhabiting one of the
shanties dose by, who was laboring under mania
a potu, had thrown himself upon tne rails for the
purpose of selfdestruction ; but two females hav
ing drawn him off, were engaged in a dreadful
struggle to prevent his again throwing himself
betore the train. One had a deadly grip of his
legs, while the ether was kneeling on his breast
as the iron horse went thundering by, just graz
ing her clothing; indeed, so close was she that
her own escape from instant death was most im
: inent. The whole scene occupied but an in
stant, and scarcely any of the passengers were
awaieof the calamity that had been impending.
Those who witnessed it were horror struck,
knowing the impossibility to prevent the de
struction of all three if tin maniac succeeded in
struggling only a few inches nearer the rail.—
Phila. Ledger.
Shipwreck and Great Loss of Life. —The
British ship Nessree was chartered at some Dort
in India, in April last, to convey a number of pil
grims (who were returning, after a lengthened
pilgrimage through Arabia, to various parts of
India) on a voyage to Bombay. She was fitted
up accordingly, and, on taking her departure,
had, besides the crew, no fewer than 400 people
on board ; also, a valuable cargo. On the night
of the 17th of June she encountered a terrible
gale. rhe passengers, ascertaining she was
driving ashore, became frantic, and attempted to
escape by the boats. The attempt, as may be
imagined, proved fatal. A tremendous rush cap
sized them and at least sixty perished. The de
struction of the ill-fated vessel soon followed
shortly after midnight she struck, and the next
minute her masts, with at least 100 of the un
happy creatures clinging to the rigging, gave
way and fell overboard. The occupants were
either crushed to death or perished by drowning
In the course ot a few hours the vessel entirely
broke up, and the whole oi the remaining pass
engers and crew were plunged in among the
breakers. Great sacrifice ot life followed. Out
o! the 450 souls who were alive the night previ
ous, all, with the exception of 94, perished.—
Ihe 94 survivers were washed ashore on frag
ments of the wreck.
The New York papers mention a report that
a distinguished financier of that city has left
•uddenly lor Europe, and also hint that he is a
defaulter.
Chinese Food. —A writer on China mentions
that the modes of’ living among the Chinese are
exceedingly curious, differing materially accor
ding to the rank and wealth of the people ; but
that the extremes of luxury and misery are n®
where more ludicrously contrasted. Those who
can afford to purchase rare and expensive delica
dies, grudge no cost for them, as is proved by the
price paid for edible bird s nests, (glutons com
positions, formed by a kind of swallow, in vast
clusters, found in caves in the Niobar and other
Islands.) SSOO being someties given for a picul,
weighing 135 pounds and three quarters.—
In the streets multitudes of men are employed in
preparing these for sale, with a pair of tweezers,
plucking trom them every hair,or fibre of feather,
or extraneous matter; and at the same time care
fully preserving the form of the nests by pushing
through them very slendor strips of bambo.—
Shark’s fins are highly prized, and when dried
they fetch a great price. The beche de-a-mer,
(a horrid looking black sea-slug) brought from
the Pacific Islands, is exceedingly esteemed by
Chinese epicures. But while the rich fare thus
sumptuously, the mass of the poor subsist on
the veriest gerbage.
The heads of fowls, their entrails, their feet,
with worms, sea reptiles of all kinds, rats, and
other vermin, are greedily devoured. We have
noticed lots of black frogs, in half dozens, tied
together, exposed tor sale in shallow troughs of
water. We have seen the hind quarters of a
horse hung up in a butcher’s shop, with the re
commendation of a whole leg attached. A lod
ger in our hotel complains, that his bedroom be
ing over a kitchen, he is grievously annoyed
in the morning by the noise of dogs and cats,
which are slaughtered below for the day’s con
sumption—but not at our table. Not a bone or
green leal is ever seen in the streets; some use
is found tor eveiything that would be refused
elsewhere.
Officers’ Pensions.— A pension question Os
some interest is understood to be pending before
the Secretary of the Interior, viz : whether an
applicant who is breveted for gallantry, in an
action in which he receives the wound for which
he is to be pensioned, is entitled to be pensioned
at the rank which he held when wounded, or at
the brevet rank conferred on him by the Presi
dent, to date back to the day of the action above
mentined ? There are many such cases growing
out of the Mexican war, the applicants in all of
them contending, of course, for the greater rates
of pension, which would be due under the in
creased rank. It strikes us however, that there
is nothing in the law to justify pensioning them
at a higher rank than that in which they may
have actually served when receiving the wound.
[Washington Star.
The Crystal Palace.— lt is said thatthe di
rectors of the Crystal Palace, following the suc
cessful example of the American Institute, have
determined to add instrumental music to the
other attractions of the exhibition, and that
Dodworth’s popular band have been engaged to
play nightly. The exhibition will close in De
cember.
Death of Admiral Cockburn.— Among the
items of news brought by the last steamer, is a
notice of the death of Admiral Sir George Cock
burn, of the British Navy. He died at Leaming
ton on the 19th of August, at the advanced age
of eighty-two. Those who remember the late
invasion of this country, by Great Britain, will
not fail to recollect the outrageous—outrages
which reflected the deepest disgrace on the
British Nation—committed under the authority,
and even in many cases under the personal su
pervision of this British naval commander. He
was styled, during the time he remained in the
waters of Virginia, the “ Scourge
of the Chesapeake,” as it was duiing this period
that the Commodore burned the houses and rob
bed the henroosts of all who lived near enough
to the shore to be visited by the marauding par
ties despatched by him. At Washington, among
other unpardonable atrocities, he mutilated a
small monument erected to the memory of those
gallant men who stormed Tripoli and Algiers,
and reduced to submission the pirates of the
Mediterranean—a feat from which British com
merce derived even more benefit than that of
this country.
The account of his death in the Londan Times
is accompanied by a detail of the services he had
rendered his country, and of the many favors he
had received from the Crown. He was evident
ly a man of talent and of great naval prowess,
and it is with regret that we are compelled to
notice the smallness of acts in the Chesapeake
—actions utterly at variance with the high
souled gallantry claimed for the officers ot the
British Navy.— Baltimore American.
The Printers Ten Commandments.
1. Thou shat love the printer—for he is the
standard of thy country.
2. Thou shalt subscribe to his paper—for he
seeketh much to obtain the news, of which ye
may not remain ignorant..
3- Thou shalt pay for his paper—for he la
boreth hard to give ye the news in due season.
4. Thou shalt advertise—that he may be able
to give ye the paper.
5. Thou shalt touch nothing that may give
the printer trouble—that he may not hold thee
guilty.
6. Thou shalt not borrow thy neighbor’s pa
per, for thereby thou wrongest thy neigbor and
the printer too.
7. Thou shalt not read the manuscript in the
hands of the Compositor—for he will hold thee
blameful.
8. Thou shalt not seek the news before it is
printed—for he will give it you in due time.
9. Thou shalt ask him but few questions of
things in the office— from it, thou shalt tell
nothing.
10. Thou shalt not send abusive and threaten
ing letters to the editor.
The w riter of the above decalogue seems
to have omitted three very important com
mandments, which we take the liberty of ap
pending.
11. Thou shalt prepoy thy postage in all cases
upon the very reasonable supposition that it is
easier for you to pay three cents, than it is for the
editor to pay five.
12. Thou shalt write legibly all articles for
publication, carefully crossing thy t’s and dot
ting thy i’s, lest thou shalt give the printer trou
ble, and thereby merit his displausure.
13. Thou shalt not take the paper for eighteen
months, and then leave it iu the office to be re
turned by the Postmaster, marked “refused,”
and when asked‘o pay for it, excuse yourself by
saying you never sub«cribee for it.
Any one keeping strictly rhe above command
ments, can have the “right of way” to our office
whenever he chooses, besides the piivilege of
the “arm chair” and the perusal of halt a dozen
of our exchanges. —Yorkville (S. C .) Remedy.
A Happy World.— This is happy world—
who says to the contrary is a fool, or "something
worse. There is everything to make us happy.
The land, the sea, and sky contribute to our en
joyment. The man who has a good heart sees
pleasure where a bad person beholds nothing
but gloom. The secret, then, in being happy
and enjoying this world is to possess a virtuous
heart. Who is the most cheerful and contented
man in your neighborhood ? It is he who has
nothing but a kind heart. Nothing rufles his
temper or disturbs his repose. The morning
sky, the evening cloud, rolling waters, the bloom
ing landscape, the teeming forests, and fields of
snow, give him pleasures others never dream of.
It is he whose mind is “led from nature up to
nature’s God,” and every day that he lives is as
contented and happy as it is possible tor man to
be. Depend upon it, the world is a beautiful one
and contains a thousand sources of enjoyment
which they can only see and feel whose hearts
are pure,and whose lives correspond to the word
of Eternal Truth.
Affection —We sometimes meet with men
and women who think that any indulgence in
affectionate feelings is evidence of weakness.
They move among their children and dying
friends with the coldness and heartlessness of an
iceberg. There is not a more unnatural or in
human sight on earth than man or woman given
over to the hardness of their hearts. Parents had
better pluck out their children’s eyes than their
hearts. Who that has ever experienced the
love of a brother or sister, or the joys of friend
ship, and values their sympathy and affection,
would rather be deprived of seeing all that is
beautiful in nature than be robbed of the hidden
treasures of the heart? Let us cherish the best
affections of the heart, and indulge in the warm
and gushing emotions of filial, parental, and bro
therly love. Call not the sympathetic tear
weakness. Our Saviour wept for those he loved.
God is love. Love God and all his creatures. —
Love everything that is lovely. Teach your
children to love God, to love their patients, to
love their brothers and sisters, to love the rose,
and everything that is lovely,

The Weather.
We have had quite a spell of wet weather
within the past day or two, and as will be seen
by our report under the commercial head, the
river has risen fourteen leet since yesterday
afternoon, making 20 feet water in he channel;
and when we went to press last evening, it was
rising at the rate of six inches per hour, and
every prospect of more rain. It has been rain
ing in the upper counties for the past three or
four days, and will do much damage to the Cot
ton crop, if it does not wash away the Corn
crops on bottom lands.
At Kingston on Friday, and for several days
previous, heavy rains fell. We learn the rains in
that section of Cherokee were general and
heavy. This will account for the small number
present at the Mass Meeting at Kingston. We
understand the speaking was all done within
doors.
Low Down Demagogueism.
We have seen no more striking evidence of the
petty shifts to which the Whig press in Georgia
is reduced in its warfare against Gen. Pierce’s Ad
ministration, than the following, taken from a
late number of the Columbus Enquirer :
What are we coming to. —A correspondent
of the Baltimore Clipper, writing lrom Wash
ington under date of August 22(1, relates a lact,
which, in connection with other circumstances,
sheds a small ray ol light on the policy and
practices of the men now in power. Is it true
that a negro is employed in a Government Office
and enjoys the profits of a place which was in
tended only for the tree white citizens of this
country? And what will be the apology for
this ? As is said hereabouts, that the abolition
ists supported Pierce, and he ought, therefore, to
reward them, we suppose it will be now argued
that this is a free negro, that somewhere voted
for him, and is, therefore, entitled to office.—
What say our former fire-eating friends to the
extract below; and what do the citizens of
Georgia think ol it ? If these things are done in
the green tree, what may the South expect in
the dry ? It ought not to astonish any thinking
man if the notorious Fred. Douglas is sent as
Minister to Hayti, or some other negro concern,
before the end ol another year.
“ A friend says that some days ago, he had a
bill against an individual for professional services
rendered by another, and set out to find his resi
dence, that the money might be collected. He
inquired in almost every direction in the North
ern Liberties, but without avail, until he hap
pened to accost a black woman, who was well
acquainted with the person alter whom search
was being made, for he was her husband. Our
friend had thought that the debtor was a white
gentleman. ‘ Where is your husband?’ asked
he. ‘At de ofifus.’ ‘What office ?’ His offus.’
Our informant now presumed that the negro
was a professional bootblack, or barber ; but hav
ing received specific directions, he at length
found his customer, at ‘de offus’ in the Patent
Office building—he being a government em
ployee and receiving a salary which many a
poor white man would be glad to have for ren
dering similar services.”
Now the story itself bears internal evidence
that this government employee, was some negro
employed to sweep rooms, fill the buckets and
pitchers with water, wash windows and door
steps, run on errands, or do some other menial
service, which, in this part of the Union, white
men are not very ambitious of performing. It
may be true, and is doubtless true, that in Wash
ington, though in a slaveholding District, there
are poor white men who are glad to get these
menial positions. The fact that this collector
of bills had to hunt about the negro quarters and
inquirer among the negro women after his em
ployee’s debtor, proves tnat the government offi
cial was not a very high official. Why did no*
this “ correspondent of the Baltimore Clipper
name the post held by this negro at ; de offus ?’ ”
Had he done so, it would have been found, doubt
less, that it was not as high in the social scale
as that of “ a prolessional bootblack, or barber.”
Any one who has been in the habit of visit
ing Washington, must have noticed negroe em
ployees in menial capacities about the Depart
ments. We remember calling once on Presi
dent Polk, and being received at the door, very
politely, by a negro, who we presume was Gov
ernment Usher for the nonce. We have no
idea that he was rewarded by that position for
any vote he had thrown in the Presidential
election.
Gen. Jeff. Davis, Secretaiy of War, that ultra
anti-abolitionist and fire-eater, so obnoxious to
our “ Republican Citizens ” of the Enquirer , has
an elderly and respectable looking grey haired
negro as his Door Keeper or Usher, at the War
Drpartment. He will take a gentleman’s caid
to the Secretary of War and bring back an an
swer with a decorous humility that it would
puzzle a white man to rival. We doubt whether
even the editor of the Enquirer , southern man
as he is, would ask his removal.
It is an amia -le, and we think, a highly cre
ditable trait in Judge Campbell, the Postmaster
General, that he persists in retaining a couple
hut hhi I old negroes, who have grown grey in
the public service, about the General Post Office
building, in humble and menial capacities, though
rudely beset by some able bodied white laborers
to turn them off and give the places to them
selves.
We confess to that southern taste that would
prefer being waited on by the negroes. We are
glad to perceive that Judge Campbell, and pro
bably all the other heads of Departments, de
cline yielding to that persecuting prejudice and
| hostility exhibited by the northern people
! a o®hist the negro race. This hostility is no
where stronger than among the abolitionists.—
I hey, with ail their pseudo negro-philism, will
see a negro turned out of employment and starve
to death rather than work by the side of him.
Our sympathy is all on the side ot the poor
negtos, and not with their hypocritical persecu
tors.
K is to hoped the next humbug of the Colum
bus Enquirer will be less on the Foss and Fog
order.
It was only last month the New York Tribune
w'as pouring out the phials of its wrath upon the
President for employing a white carriage driver
and dressing him in a blue coat with brass but
tons fastening thereby a badge of degradation
upon a free born white citizen.
1 hus northern abolitionists and southern
Whigs “ vie with each other in clamorous de
nunciations” of our republican President.
The Tournament. —A letter from the Capon
Springs, Va., gives an account of a tournament
which came off at that fashionable watering
place a few days since. There were many
“ gallant knights and ladies fair present on the
occasion, and the tilting is described as very ex
citing. The Knight of Stafford, a Mr. P., was
the victor, and was duly crowned with the lau
rel wreath. ‘‘And now,” says the account,” all
is anxiety and stir among the ladies, as to whom
will be offered that crown, and selected as the
queen of beauty. Soon, however, he has deci
ded ; the interesting Miss ,of Georgia, is
he chosen one.
At night followed the ball, where the young
mif 6 j Was en *kroned amid garlands and flowers,
Ihe dance—the waltz—music, and gaiety now
rule the hour. Sweet children dressed as cupids
and nymphs—the rich dresses of the knights
and matrons proud, passed and repassed in the
dance, like a fairy scene. A rich banquet closed
the midnight hours.”
We regret to learn (says the Savannah Re
publican) that Mrs. Henry Jackson, mother of
the Hon. Henry R. Jackson, of this city, depart
ed this life on Sunday last, at Athens, Ga., after a
very brief illness. Truly, “ when sorrows come,
they come not single spies but in battalions.”
Com. Tattnall.
This noble son of Georgia, whose death, at
Pensacola, we noticed in our last was the son of
Josiah Tattnall, formerly Governor of this State,
and was at the time of his death, about 55 or 60
years of age. Honorable, high-minded, and
chivalrous, his useful life was adorned with all
the characteristics of nature’s noblest virtues.
Ardently attached to his profession, he was ever
ready to assert his country’s rights or to redress
her wrongs. He was at the repulse of the British
at Craney Island in 1812, and was afterwards at
the battle of Bladensburgh ; and during the late
war with Mexico he was commander of the
“ Musquito Fleet,” under the walls of Yera
Cruz. On all occasions he conducted himself
with bravery and gallantry. Commodore Tatt
nal leaves many iriends and acquaintance in
this city, whose hearts will pulsate with emo
tions of sorrow on receiving the melancholy
tidings of his death.
The Savannah Republican says : “We pre
sume that his remains will be brought to this
city, and will find their last resting place in the
family vault of the Tattnalls, at Bonaventure,
four miles south of this city. ‘‘Peace to his
ashes.” __
Health of Mobile.
The Yellow Fever in Mobile seems to be on
the increase. The Board of Health report 27
deaths on the 4th—22 by Yellow Fever ; and
43 deaths on the sth—32 by Yellow Fever.
The U. S. ship Decatur, Commander Whittle,
arrived at St. Johns, N. B. on the 16th ult.i
from the coast of Labrador. She was the first
United States vessel of war that the oldest in
habitant of the place remembered to have seen
enter that harbor. Accounts from the Cape of
St. Mary’s and Labrador fisheries are far from
encouraging.
Large Cargo of Segars &c. —The clipper
brig Adams Gray arrived at New York on Tues
day from Havana, after a passage of nine days.
She brings the enormous quantity of seven mil
lions of segars, together with a quantity of box
sugar, pine-apples, oranges, &c.
Extensive Fraud. —A New York despatch,
dated Sept. sth, says : A man named Gutman,
well known here, and engaged for a long time as
custom-house broker in this city, enjoying the
full confidence of a large portion of foreign im
porting houses, disappeared last Thursday mor
ning, and has not since been heard of. He is in
debted, it is alleged, to the Union Bank about
one hundree thousand dollars. Also, to Messrs.
Spies, Chust & Co., and several others, for
amounts varying from $5,000 to SIO,OOO each.
Re has left a wife and large ramily of children
in this city. The presumption is that he has
gone to Europe.
The Royal Yacht Club Race. —The time
of the vessels competing in the Royal Yacht
Club Race at Cowes is given in detail from the
English papers. The Sylvie, the American
yacht, was defeated by the Julia, a British yacht,
in six minutes and a few seconds. The owner
of the Sylvie, has challenged the victorious ves
sel for another race.
Departure of Emigrants and Missiona
ries to Liberia. —The barque Gm, Capt. Law
lin, was to sail from New York on the Bth inst.,
on a trading voyage to the coast of Africa, tak
ing out two Missionaries of the Old School Pres
byterian Church, viz : Rev. Edwin T. Williams
and William Clemens, with their wives, who
go to the island of Carisco. The New York
Colonization Society will send out about 100
emigrants on the 15th of October. About the
same time, another expedition will leave Bal
timore and Norfolk, with over two hundred emi
grants. Quite a company is gathering in Cir
cleville, Ohio,and in Indiaua, with the design of
emigrating this fall.
Commerce of Louisville. —The Louisville
papers of the Ist publish the annual commercial
statement of that city. The total receipts of
bagging and rope during the past year have
amounted to 85,795 pieces of the former, and
89,773 coils of the latter, which at a tair valua
tion, are worth $1,700,000. The hog product of
the season was equal to 100,000 barrels of pork,
and the consumption of flour 101,340 barrels.
The Report in Parliament on the Cuban
Slave Trade. —The important report recently
laid before the English House of Commons, by a
special committee on slavery and the slave trade,
alleges that the fact is notorious, that slave-tra
ding vessels are fitted out in Cuba under the
guns of Spanish men of war; that great facilities
are afforded to the importation of negroes ; that
when once landed, they are called natives, and
all attempts to trace and liberate them are com
monly defeated ; and these abuses have increased
precisely in proportion to the bribes accepted by
the |Cuban government. Up to 1840 the
the Captain-General received a half a dollar for
every slave imported; but Gen. O’Donnell, in
1843. succeeded in raising this fee to three doub
• loons a head ; and, with the exception of Con
cha, who refused the bribe, the same blood-mo
ney has since been levied by every Governor Os
the island. Nor does the crime stop here. The
interests involved in this trade are mainly those
of high and mighty personages at Madrid, who
have power to obtain the recall ot any honest
officer, and who contrive to keep up all the hor
rors of this system to gratify their own avarice a*
the expensse of humanity and of the national in
terest.
Commenting upon this report, the London
Times discourages the folly of protecting Spain
any longer in the enjoyment of her slave trade,
and partially recommends that she be handed
over to the tender mercies of the American filli
busters.
The Jackson Mississippian states that the
High Court of Errors and appeals has refused to
grant a re-argument of the case instituted a
gainst the State by Johnson, the holder of the
Union Bank bonds. The question is now fairly
before the voters, whether or not appropriations
shall be made by the Legislature to pay the *
judgment.
Pacific Railroad. —Advices received at St.
Louis give authentic information that the sur
veying party headed by Major Stevens, the new
Governor of the Territory of Washington, sent
to explore the northern route of the proposed
Pacific railway, had reached Camp Cushing, (
near the mouth of the Yellowstone river, having ,
thus far divided into three parties, and explored 1
three separate routes. 1
Bransby Cooper.— Among the deaths re
cently reported in London, we notice that of Mr_
Bransby Cooper, the eminent surgeon, nephew j
and biographer of the late Sir Astley Cooper, j
which occurred suddenly at the rooms of the
Athenaeum Club.
Sale of Manufacturing Property. —The
Arkwright estate in Rhode Island was sold at
auction on the Ist inst.,for $32,600 to William A.
Howard. It included 108 acres of land, 51 tene
ments, and all the buildings necessary to a man
facturing establishment, except the mills, which
had been destroyed by fire. The fall is 23 feet
on the north-west branch of the Patuxet river
and the milffe when in opetation contained 8,000
spindles.
The New York Courier and Enquirer calls the
late “ Whole Wofld’s Temperance Convention,’
in which the Rev. Antoinette Brown and her
coadjutors figured, the “ Rest of the World’s Con
vention,” and finds in some of its doings, occa
sion for the following pleasant paragraph:
An inconvenience otfen anticipated from the
intermixture of the sexes in public business., be
gan to be felt on this occasion, through the indis
cretion of the managers in placing two young
and well-favored female secretaries at the re
porters’ table. Reporters are not usually the
i lads to slight such gilts of Providence as this,
and we observed that a lively stage of acquain
, tar.ceship, if not of flirtation had been attained
|at an early hour of the second day. It is no
| “ private grief’ of ours, as our readers enjoy the
j satisfactory assurance that we regard but the
smallest portion of the talk of the day as worth
reporting in our columns :—but we counsel those
journals who make these reports a ll feature,’ ’ to
look to it. Such a rose colored medium as in
vested the reporter’s table at the rest of the
World’s convention, cannot be favorable to dis
creet, impartial, or elaborate reports.
The U. S. sloop of war Jamestown, Captain
Downing, from Montevideo, was going into Rio
Janeiro, 25th July.
Great Silver Mines Discovf.red in New
Mexico. —A letter from New Mexico, in the
St. Louis Republican, states that some time
since a very rich mine of silver was discovered
in the Sierras of Los Arganos, by a party of va
gabond Mexicans. Mr. Stevenson, an expe
rienced miner and a very wealthy man, from El
Paso county, immediately purchased from the
discoverers this mine,and having had it thorough
ly tested at the mint in Chihuahau, has com
menced working it on an extensive scale. An
other mine has also been discovered by an old
miner, who sold out to Mr. Hendree (since kill
ed at El Paso) and two Mexican capitalists.—
The writer adds:
As to the value of the discovery, no estimate
i can be placed upon it. Many old miners have
{ visited the mine, and with one assent have pro
' nounced it unequalled in Mexico, or in the
j world. The vein commences near the toot of
the immense Sierra of Los Organo, on the side
of a Canon, called u La Cueva, and runs direct
into the thickest part of the mountains thus giv
ing positive assurance that there can be exhaus
tion of metal, for from the summit to the bottom
of the mountain extends one solid mass of lead
and silver. The principal vein is over four acres
in width, a great number of less width,
branch out right and left. To give you some
idea of the wealth of this metal, eight pounds of
ore from the surface yielded one dollar and over
of silver in a little cuidrada or ash-turnace, where
more than a third of the silver was lost; every
vara depth that is dug displays metal richer and
richer. The work will be carried on by the
present owners on an immense scale, as it is
evident they will not sell, having already been
offered large sums of money for the mines.
It is said that the Hon. Robt. J. Walker was
the gentleman who was robbed of $2,900 by a
waiter at the Metrqpolilan Hotel, N. Y., a few
days ago. A large reward was offered for the
recovery of the money, and when the sum was
found upon the servant he was allowed to go,
Mr. Walker positively declining to prosecute.
Death of Ex-Governor Poindexter.—
Hon. George Poindexter, formerly United States
Senator from Mississippi, died at Jackson, in
that State, on the sth inst. He was the first
delegate to Congress from Mississippi, and on
her admission into the Union was immediately
chosen U. States Senator, which position he held
for a great number of years. He was likewise
at one time Governor of the State. In early
life he was a supporter of Gen. Jackson, but in
later yeais he became an inveterate opponent of
the Old Hero, withdrew from the democratic
ranks, joined thi whigs, advocated a re-charter
of the United States Bank, and supported whig
measures generally. Subsequently he retired to
private life, until a few years ago, when he
again came out as a democrat, but failed to gain
any prominence in the ranks of that party.
1 COMMUNICATED.]
Mr. Editor —Permit me, through the medium
of your valuable journal, to call the attention of
the officer whose duty it is to inspect the opera
tions of the City Scavengers, and to know that
their duty is performed, in removing the clean
ing of yards, &c. from the streets, from day to
day, when deposited in time, and in accordance
to the requisition of the Ordinance.
It is an unpleasant task at any time to com
plain, but at the present season when we have
an abundance of rain, and extreme hot days,
it is requisite for each and every member of the
community to keep their lots , sinks , &c. in good
and healthful order, thereby extending good to !
all. Our Health Officer in this part of the City is j
an industrious man, and I am sure if it was his j
duty to have the dirt and filth removed, or the j
drains repaired in our section, it would be done;
but wffioever has charge of the performance of !
this duty, he is particularly invited to examine j
the deposits , drains, &c. &e, of up town.
A Friend to Health.
[Correspondence of the Mobile Tribu/ie.]
Gainesville, August 31.—1 promised you
when leaving Mobile, to write you occasion
ally, giving an account of the prospects ot
the growing crop. In obedience to that pro
mise I now write from this place, and will
write again from Columbus. So far, I have
only travelled through Choctaw, and this far
into Sumter. In Choctaw', which you know
is r.ot a rich county, the cotton is good. I heard
of but little complaint until I got to the upper
edge of the county, where they complain very
much of the worm, and from that to this point
the worm has done considerable injury. The
frequent rains also have caused the weed to shed
the top crop. I noticed few blooms as I passed
the fields. They say here that this county will
not produce 500 lbs. to the acre. I imagine,
however, that it is yet too early to form an
opinion ; tor should it remain dry for two weeks
longer, my opinion is that the worm will disap
pear, and more cotton be made than is anticipa
ted ; still there will not be an average crop in
this county.
A Cheap Damp Destroyer.—By placing an
unstopped bottle or more open vessel if conven
ient, containing strong sulphuric acid, in any
part of the room, the moisture becomes rapidly
absorbed, and the salubrity of the apartment con
sequently improved. The great capacity of sul
phuric acid for vapor, and the cheapness of the
acid, renders this mode of absorbing humidity
very economical.
Vt., Sept 7. Vermont Election.
—The returns of the election held yesterday,
as far as received, indicate no choice of Gov
ernor by the people, the Whigs having lost
as compared with last year. Fairbanks, whig
has a large plurality, but the result will de
pend on the Legislature, which runs very
close. The temperance question operated to
such an extent that it is impossible to classify
the members so as to arrive at the true state of
parties.
