“ I Knew he Owed the Printer.”
BY SSIOKER.
Tn youth I saw him first
Hale, hearty and well dressed ;
With a look that told you plainly,
His conscience was at rest.
In after years I saw him—
His hearty look was gone ;
His peace of mind had vanished,
His pride of manhood flown.
I knew ho owed the printer,
I knew it by the air
Os general deficiency
That peeped out everywhere.
Henever advertised then.
Ho nover read the news,
I ntil he did through ignorance
Both time and money loso.
No one knew his business,
No one knew his name,
Some thought him dead or broke —
No matter, twas ail the same.
The wide world jogged along,
(i he printer with the best,)
Save him who would not jog,
But lagged behind the rest.
So back he went—back—b ick
A disappointed man ;
Jumping in his little sphere,
From fire to frying pan.
At last in desparate mood.
He roused his dormant will;
And did —what d’ye think ;
Paid the Printer'& hilt.
(doing the other extreme,
lie published everewhere ;
Who he was—What he had —
Price and place of store.
Being a reading age,
People saw his name ;
And wanting what he had,
To his counter came.
Being a taleing age,
People spread his fame ;
Custom grew—money flew,
(His safe received the same.)
He pr< spered in his trade,
And goes on prospering still.
Why l —Because he advertised
And Pays his Printers hill.

Deep Ocean Sounding.
As this subject now engrosses the attention of
many of the scientific men of the present age, it
may not be uninteresting to know the results of
a discovery which has been introduced by our
neighbors on the other side of the Atlantic, for
the purpose of testing the existence of a founda
tion to the ocean, and also to know of what it is
composed. There has for several days past been
lying in the Southampton waters an American
government surveying brig, named the Dolphin.
This brig, which is empowered under an act of
Congress, in connection with the scientific re
searches of Lieut. Maury, of the National Ob
servatory, at Washington, tor the purpose of en
tering into a series of meteorological observations
and discovery, left Chesapeake Bay on the 31st
of May, and has completed a perfect line of soun
dings across the Atlantic to Rockule,of the west
coast of Scotland. The distances between each
place of sounding averaged about one hundred
miles. A line was then run to the Azores, to
the north of which, about a parallel of iorty-live
in a south-west direction, an elevation was dis
covered on the bottom of the ocean of about six
thousand feet, the soil indicating a fine yellow
chalky substance, mixed with a small portion of
the finest sand. After leaving the Azores, the
Dolphin took a westerly direction, still succeed
ing in discovering bottom. Steering north, she
made a direct line to the “three chimnies, 77
where, at a depth ol one thousand nine hundred
fathoms, bottom was also discovered. At this
point Lieut. Berryman, in charge of the ship,
finding the position of the weather untavorabie
to a contination of their research, made sail, and
came into Southampton. The greatest depth at
which bottom was reached was 3,130 fathoms, in
lat. from 41 to 43, lon. 51 to 56. The explorers
have brought home with them specimens of the
soil which has been discovered at their various
places of sounding, and which will be laid be
fore a committee of scientific men at Washing
ton, for tb*» purpose of analyzation. The tem
perature of the water was also tested at various
depths, specimens of which have also been pre
served. During the whole of the observations,
particular attention was paid to the width, depth
and force of the currents in different parts or the
ocean, ail of which have been carefully noted,
for the purpose of being fully discussed and ex
plained. The Dolphin intends returning atjthe
latter end of the week, and should the weather
permit will take a line of sounding to the eastern
edge of the Azores, that being a portion of the
Atlantic which has at present remained unex
amined. Os course a further explanation of the
results of tins expedition will not at present be
given, as the whole of the matter collected is
being carefully preserved for the uses and ex
planation of the gentlemen at Washington.
There is one interesting matter in connection
with this subject, and the non-existence of
which has been the great drawback to all pre
vious results being satisfactory, and which is the
very simple method by which the sounding ap
paratus is rendered entirely perfect and useful.
In all previous attempts the great puzzle has
been how to get back the weight when it has
once reached the bottom, and it is a well known
fact, especially amongst seamen, that in deep
sea sounding, however carefully or strongly a
line may be made, it never has, after being once
sunk, been recovered. In this respect, however,
Brother Jonathan deserves much praise, for he
has invented a plan by which the weight, upon
its reaching the bottom, becomes immediately
detached, and the line, therefore drawn in with
perfect ease. The plan is this: A hole is drilled
through a G 4 lbs. or heavier shot, sufficiently
large to admit a rod of about J of an inch in
diameter. This rad is about 12 or 14 inches in
length, and, with the exception of about 1£ in
ches at the bottom, perfectly solid. At the top
of the rod are two arms extending one from each
side. These arms being upon easily acting hin
ges, are capable of being raised or lowered with
very little power. A small branch extends from
the outside of each ot them, which is tor the pur
pose of holding by means of rings a piece of wire
by which the ball is swung to the rod. A piece
of rope is then attached by each end to the arms,
to which again is joined the sounding line. The
ball is then lowered into the water, and upon
reaching the bottom the strain upon the line
ceases, and the arms fall down, allowing the ball
to detach itselfentirely from the roil, which is
then easily drawn in, the drilled portion of which
is discovered to be filled with a specimen of that
which it has come in contact with at the bot
tom. Theie are other advantages also in con
nexion with the invention, which are of great
utility in the carrying on the discoveries, and
which no doubt will so materially assist the
scientific researches of the world, that the sub
ject of W’hether there is or is not a bottom to the
sea will no longer remain a difficulty to answer.
Is THIS Independence.—We have read with
the strongest feeling of disgust, mingled with
no small degree of horror, an editorial in the
“ Independent Press ”of the 24th instant. The
editor of the paper seems to have thrown off
every kind social or moral, or we
might say, assumed that degree of u indepen
dence™ which when carried to such extremes,
hugs itself in the rotton bosom of licenciousness.
With the merits of the old qurrel we have noth
ing to do, but in our opinion, there is no provoca
tion or insult that can justify such vindicative
ness. Hostility, such as this, towards the dead,
is, we think, unparalleled, and coming, too, from
one who has set himself as a beacon to guide
and warn—must destroy the usefulness of his po
sition, and instead of lowering the object of his
abusive attack, will, we are confident, destroy
the very desire of his heart—the vindication of
himselt. This may be to hirn insensibly, the
first step towards degradation, one which should
be most carefully avoided ; and if he proposes to
himself a career of usefulness, he will forever

Mineral Wealth.
The superiority of our Stone Coal, is admitted
by the best of judges, both in the Smith’s iorge
and in the Coke. The blooms made from the
latter commands a high price, the Coke contain
ing so small an amount of sulphur as scarcely to
be detected by the closest analysis. Our manu
facturers when they enter the market with Pig
Iron, or Blooms, are exempt from those anoy
ances, which sometimes bring bankruptsy and
ruin on their eastern neighbors, through their
iron being “red short,” having been refined by
Coke made from coal, containing a large amount
of sulphur.
Again, the Coal through this region contains
less volatile matter than any coal yet analyzed
in the Union, or has ever come under our obser
vation ; it is then, better adopted for manufac
ture of those kinds of Iron where toughness
and tenacity are the principle characteristics, it
will also produce one fourth more Iron from a
given quantity of ore than any other kind of
coal.
A new vein of Slate Coal, has lately been
discovered and is now in active operation ; fine
specimens of it can be seen in different places ;
in some its color is intermediate between vel
vet black and dark grayish black, it is termed
Peacock Coal, having the color ol that bir .’.’s
feathers on its surface; it breaks out in egg
shaped concretions and has a beautiful lustrious
appearance, it burns longei than canal coal,
cakes more or less and leaves a slay.
Phis coal lies in deep veins never less than
five feet, and as high as thirty; this coal is very
valuable if properly managed in the mines, it
makes but a small quantity of fine coal, it de
generates a large amount of carbonic acid gas,
and requires a good supply of fresh air to keep
the mines well ventilated.
Canal Coal, color between velvet and gray
ish black, and is sometimes called parrot coal,
this kind has always commanded a higher price
iu market than any other species of this miner
al, it is so resinous it can easily be ignited as the
cander and gives out a clear white flame burn
ing with great briliancy, this coal is not only a
favorite in the parlor and cooke stove, but it is
invaluable in the gas warks; a pound of good
canal coal properly Heated in a small aparatus
will yield live cubic feet of gas, equivalent in
illuminating power to a sperm candle, 6 in the
pound, on a large scale are however, three and
a halt feet of good gas, is all that should be
expected from one pound of coal. The Ca
nal Coal can be cut with a knile or turned on
the lathe into tumblers, tea-cups, sugar bowls
and every kind of toy, and sells readily in the
bank at about twice the price of any.other kind
of bituminous coal.
We have traveled through most of the great
mining States, and having no interest in the
matter, whatever, we are at liberty to say we
have not seen any place where minerals abound
to such an extent, and have the same natural and
artificial facilities as there is here. In Pottsville
Va., they have to sink deep slopes or shalts, in
Richmond, Va., the same, some of them several
hundred feet deep. The Maryland mining
company, have had to lay down a track at an
enormous expense, before they could get their
coal to market, and in nine out of ten instances in
those countries, the iron ore has to be conveyed
a long d stance to the coal, or the coal to the ore.
But here the case is different, the ore and the
coal being almost in all cases located together.
Enough then, has been said on the coal and
Iron subject to give men of capital and enter
prize, aii idea of the inexhaustible beds of coal
and iron in oar midst, they will see at a glance
that there cannot possibly be a better locality
for the manufacture of every description of Iron.
Rolling Mills erected here would find a market
for all they made at their own rates for years,
the roads under construction, chartered and pro
jected, will all w’ant iron, and there is no better
place to make it than in East Tennessee.

What Democracy Is.
It is well enough to refer to the first princi
ples occasionally, for the purpose of refreshing
the memories of the old, and instructing the
youth of the country. We have never seen De
mocracy better defined and the duties of the
Democratic party more lucidly explained, than
in the following article taken from the Ohio
Statesman, Oct. 9th, 1844. The sentiments are
taken from a speech of the Hon. Geo. M. Dal
las :
DEMOCRACY IS—
-Ist. The essential legal equality of human
beings.
2nd. The people the source of legitimate pow
er.
3rd. The absolute and lasting severance of
Church and State.
4th. The Freedom, sovereignty, and inde
pendence ol the respective States.
sth. The Union a confederacy of compact,
neither a consolidation nor a centralization.
6th. The constitution of the Union, a special
written grant of powers limited and defined.
Again :
Ist. No hereditary office, nor order nor title.
2nd. No taxation beyond the public wants.
3rd. No national debt if possible.
4th. No costly splendor of the Administra
tion.
sth. No proscription of opinion nor of public
discussion.
6th. No unnecessary interference with indi
vidual conduct; or property or speech—
7th. The civil paramount to the Military
power.
And again:
Ist. The representative to obey the instruc
tions of his constituents.
2nd. No favored class and no Monopolies.
3rd. The elections free, and suffrage univer
sal.
4th. No public money expended except by
warrant of specific appropriations.
sth. No mysteries in government inaccessible
to the public eye.
6th. Public compensation for public services,
moderate salaries, pervading economy and ac
countability.
This is the chart and compass by which the
Democratic party has arisen to its present
strength, and the country to its high position in
the ranks of the great powers of the earth.
Read it, Democrats, and cherish these great car
dinal principles of the Democratic party.
Judge Johnson's Address at Macon—Mr.
Knowles Criticism.
Messrs. Editors :—ln the last Recorder, an
extract is published from Judge Johnson’s ad
dress to the Female College at Macon, which
embraced his language heretofore pronounced
unscriptural by Mr. Knowles. It is the only
paragraph in which even his theological accuser
could detect anything to which any objection
could be urged. That your readers may he en
abled to appreciate the merits'of the sentinel
upon the watch towers of religious liberty, I
give you the paragraph entire :
“the relation of wife and mother.”
‘■The relation of wile and mother is the conse
quence of marriage ; which is at once, the foun
dation of the social state and the immage of
Heaven reflected to earth. Hence, its true na
ture and its resulting duties should constitute a
leading feature in female education. Parents ex
pect their daughters to marry; and the young
ladies would plead guilty to the ‘soft impeach
ment,’ if I were to insinuate that they indulged
the same expectation. But, if we were allowed
to judge from observation, it must be admitted,
that tew parents and still fewer daughters seem
to comprehend the true character and respon
sibilities of the conjugal bond. The highest no
tion of marriage that generally obtains, at the
present day is, that it is a contract between the
parlies, professedly founded upon the considera
tion of mutual love, and solemnized by the Priest
or Magistrate. Thus regarded, it is a mere per
sonal union, formed to promote natural and tem
poral pleasures, rather than spiritual happiness
and Heavenly bliss. Thus regarded, it contem
plates the distinction of sex, as toundded alone in
differences of physical organization, and there
fore, that marriage being only for the accom
modation of such distinctions and their conse
quent dependencies, has reference only to the
present life. Society and government treat it as
a civil contract, and we fall far below its high
claims, if, by dignifying it, as a religious institu
tion, we simply mean that it is of Divine ap
pointment. True marriage exists prior to and is
independent of its public solemnization. The
hymeneal vow, the ceremony and the nuptial
feast, are but the outward forms of an inward
union. The distinctions of sex do not consist in
differences of natural organization only, but they
are the results of real pre-ex istent distinctions of
mind. They are spiritual as well as natural;
psycichal as well as physicial. The body is but
the form and incarnation of the spirit—the body
of a man, that of a male, and the body of a wom
an, that of a female spirit. True marriage is the
conjunction of two such spirits, brought together
by the attraction of that Heavenly affinity.”
Bub I should not have reiterdted the last piti
ful effusion of the editor, if he had not remarked :
“ We have good grounds for believing that the
address has been modified and intentionally kept
out of our way.” This is just what was detect
ed. If the original manuscript had been sent to
Mr. Knowles, he would have had “ good ground
for believing’ it was a modified copy or that
the speech was not delivered as written. Mr.
Knowles set out to make capital out of the ad
dress and no effort on the part of Judge Johnson
and his friends could arrest him. New I say to
you Mr. Knowles the extract above is in the
exuct words of the original manuscript, and
word for word, without the slightest alteration
or modification, as it was delivered. I mean
what I say, and you can know who says it if
you apply at the office of this journal. The field
then is open for your critisra. You have promised
to point out what is unscriptural. Proceed with
the truth.
But Mr. Knowles insinuates that the address
“ has been intentionally kept out of his way.”—
If thus, permit me Mr. Knowles to say, you hon
or yourself over much. The address was sent
to press and distributed without even a thought
on the part of Judge Johnson or any ot his friends
that you existed. The latter from the day you
penned your first critique, never dreamed for a
moment that he could expect justice at your
hands. Amicus.
Important Treasury Circular.
Modification of the Tariff. —The follow
ing circular has been addressed by the Secretary
of the Treasury, to a number of prominent New
York merchants, which indicates that he intend*
to recommend to Congress some alteration of
the present Tariff: —
Treasury Department, Sept 20,1853.
Sir :—The increasing revenue and accumu
lating amount of money in the treasury, render
it most probable that the tariff will be made a
prominent subject ot discussion and examination,
with a view to reduction, during the approach
ing session of Congress. In the meantime, and
at as early a day as may be, I am desirous to
obtain from the most reliable sources, the best
information of the working of the present rates
of duty upon the leading branches of industry of
the country, and of the effect to be expected
from the proposed modifications.
Understanding that you take an interest in
this subject, and have given some attention to
it, and perhaps have been in situations to place
within your reach veiy valuable information,
you will much oblige me by communicating to
this department your views thereon, and by fur
nishing lists of articles now subject to duty,
which, according to such views, should be duty
l'.ee, and of such other articles on which the
present duty should be reduced.
The existing tariff naving been designed gen
erally and substantially for revenue and for a
fair and equal operation both or between the va
rious sections of the country and the various
branches of industry, the same objects should
undoubtedly be kept in view ;l,„anJ the reduc
tions, if any shall be made, should be bo arranged
as to afford an equal participation in the benefit
to every interest and to every section. Arti
cles which enter into our manufactures and
those which do not come into competition with
American products are those about which there
will doubtless be the least question.
Besides these objects in the proposed reduction
of the tariff of such an arrangement as will af
ford proportional benefit and relief to every por
tion and interest of the country, there is anoth
er which ought by no means to be disregarded.
I mean, to abridge the labors of the custom
houses. This object will be consulted by adding
to the free list articles of general consumption,
and articles paying little duty, which but for this
consideration might properly be made subjects
of revenue, 1 am very respectfully,
James Guthrie,
Secretary of the Treasury.

Two Weeks Later from California.
New York, Sept. 25. —The steamer Northern
Light, from San Juan, arrived at 1 o’clock this
morning, bringing San Francisco dates of Sept.
Ist, $1,350,000 in gold on freight, and $500,000
in the hands of the passengers. She also brings
650 passengers. She connected with the Brother
Jonathan from San Francisco, which brought
down 700 passengers and $1,500,000 in gold on
freight.
The steamer Cortes arrived at San Francisco
on Aug. 28, with the passengers who left New
York in the Northern Light on Aug. sth. All
were well.
The specie by the Northern Light is consigned
principally as follows: Duncan, Sherman & Co.,
$400,000; American Exchange Bank, $200,000;
Adams & Co., $200,000; Burgoyn & Plume,
$300,000.
The steamer Oregon, for Panama, left San
Francisco on the Ist, with nearly $1,000,000
gold on freight, which was consigned principally
as follows: Page, Bgcon & Co., $200,000; Adams
& Co., $400,000; B. Davidson, $100,000; Wells
& Fargo, $75,000.
The miners were generally doing well.
Emigrants from China and across the plains
were arriving in great numbers.
A large shipment of quicksilver had beem
made to China
The excess of shipments of gold for the past
eight months of 1853, over the same months of
1852, is nearly $10,250,000.
Strikes among the laborers continue,and were
generally successful. Bricklayers had struck for
sl2 and hod-carriers for $6 per day, and had been
successful.
Indian hostilities on Rogue River were un
checked.
The two men who murdered Mr. Beckwith,
at the Volcano diggings, were arrested on board
the Brother Jonathan just as she was about to
sail. Their names wereDuch Harry and James
Fox.
A large meeting had been held at San Fran
cisco in favor of the immediate construction of
the Pacific ra lroad.
Politics were waxing warm, and several pro
minent democrats were canvassing the State in
opposition to the re-election of Gov. Bigler. Dr.
H. M. Gray had been nomfnated for Mayor of
San Francisco by the whigs, and Capt. E. J.
Harrison, agent o! the Nicaragua steamship com
pany, by the democrats.
The taxable property of the city had been as
sessed at $29,000,000.
Nearly one-half the town of Sonora had been
destroyed by fire. The flames broke out in
Barnum’s Hotel, and swept down the whole
north part of Main street. The business part of
the city escaped. Loss $40,000.
The town of Kelsey’s Diggins, in El Dorado
county, was burnt down on the night of the
25th ult. Loss $40,000.
Indian War in Oregon. —Dates irom Ore
gon to the 26th of August have been received.
An Indian insurrection had broken out in
Paogna river valley, which created great con
sternation among the inhabitants. Several tribes
had united and commenced war of extermina
tion upon whites. Many massacres had already
been committed. Among the victims were Dr.
William R. Rose, and John R. Harden. Lieut.
B. V. Griffin, with a company of troops, had
made an attack upon a party of Indians, but was
obliged to retreat, himself wounded.
An expedition under General Lane had gone
to the scene of action, and bloody work was ex
pected. Twenty whites had been butchered.
San Francisco Markets. —The markets
have been dull since the sailing of the last stea
mers, the demand from the interior being light,
with no immediate prospect of improvement.—
Flour closed at prices favoring buyers. Inspect
ed Gallego aud Haxall, $22 a $23. Clear Pork
$26; Mess $24; Hams 164 a 17c., Butter 28 a
29c.; clear bacon 15c.; keg lard 14 a 15c.; mess
bacon 10 a 124 c. Sugar firm. New York
crushed 16 a 17c. Liquors in moderate demand.
American Brandy 70c.; whisky 58 a 60.; Coffee
depressed. RiolsJc. Candles depressed. Dry
Goods exceedingly dull for staples, Desirable
Prints in demand at good prices. Naval Stores
in fair request. Spirits of Turpentine declined
to 71c. Rice unchanged, with no sales of Caro
lina.
We learn from the Portsmouth, N. H. Chron
icle of the 22d inst., that the fishing squadron is
dispersed, by the orders carrying the vessels to
different destinations.
> . r * nceton goes to New York, the Cyane
to Washington; the Fulton to Philadelphia, and
the Decatur is already at Boston, fitting for dis
tant service. The commodore will probably
haul down his broad pennant to-morrow. All
the vessels for the squadron have been on the
most energetic service since July. They have
passed over nearly twelve thousand miles in
their several cruises. The Fulton, alone, under
her indomitable gallant Watson, has accomplish
ed four thousand miles. She would make an ef
fective dispatch vessel for the emergencies of the
Navy Department—and she ought to be retained
for that purpose.

Judge Johnson on Foreign Emigration.
In the summer of 1847. Judge Johnson deliv
ered a Commencement Address at Penfield,
from which,we take the following extract. It
expresses the Democratic sentiment of this
country, which is always warmly in favor of the
oppressed of other lands, and prompts a kind and
fraternal welcome to these who come, pilgrims
of liberty and republicanism, to find peace, hap
piness and protection under the sheltering wing
of the American eagle. It stands in happy con
trast with the narrow policy which the Whig
candidate for Governor in 1849, of increasing the
obstacles to the naturalization of foreigners, so
zealously had advocated. It stands as a noble
rebuke to the firey intollerance which inspired
Mr. Toombs in the Convention which nominated
Mr. Jenkins, when he poured forth his denun
ciations against foreigners as a set of Red Repub
licans, German Jews, &c.
Does he, or Judge Johnson express the senti
ments of the people ? Let the ballot box an
swer.
“ In the benevolence of its policy, our govern
ment throws wide its doors to the emigrant from
every land; and thousands annually avail them
selves of this asylum for the oppressed. They
come into our midst, incorporate themselves
with our society and after the requisite residence
and legal formalities, they assume the duties and
receive the privileges and immunities of citizen
ship. They come ignorant of our laws and in
stitutions and entertaining natural sympathies
lor the customs and institutions which they have
left. Heretofore, however, emigration has not
been sufficient to destroy the homogeniousne.s
of our population. But the recent accessions to
our territory, the happiness which is enjoyed by
the free citizens of this Republic, and the mise
ries consequent upon want and oppression, which
exist in the old world, must greatly augment the
'influx of foreigners to this country. In view of
this, many indulge the apprehension, that it may
introduce a mixture of population, so different in
their political affinities, as to jeopard social order
and thwart the legitimate operations ot our gov
ernment. To prevent these dangers, there are
those who favor the policy of entirely excluding
foreigners from the rights and privileges of citi
zenship. Bui: this would be repugnant to the
genius of our institutions, and would betray a
selfishness unworthy the expansive designs of
our Constitution. Others, again, insist that our
laws of naturalization should be so modified, as
greatly to prolong the time of probation. But
this would not meet the apprehended danger.—
For the evil does not consist in their possessing
the rights of citizenship ; but rather in the fact
of their ignorance of the principles of our govern
ment. There is no reform ng and enlightening
power in the denial of, or a protraction of the
probation for the rights of citizenship. But, on
the contrary, rather a discouragement to reforma
tion. But extending to the emigrant the benefits
ot naturalization laws, he receives a personal in
terest in the government; feels that it protects
his person, his character, his industry and his
property. This begets patriotism, and patriot
ism prompts to allegiance and subordination to
the constituted authorities. The remedy, then,
is palpable and obvious. Close not our doors
against the wandering exile who seeks shelter from
the storm of oppression, under the ample wing of
the eagle of liberty ; nor yet protract his time of pro
bation, less you dimish the strong incentives to in
dustry and virtue, which the prospect of early na
turalization holds out to the foreigner. But let us
have amongst us, so all-pervading an influence of
intelligence and morality, that the moment the
foot of the emigrant touches our soil, he shall be
surrounded by an atmosphere, which will en
lighten, elevate and purify his mind and heart.
Let him appreciate the value of our institutions,
by observing the happiness which they confer,
and the force of our laws, by the protection
which they afford to person and property. Let
his propensities for vice and dissipation, if he
have them, be subdued by the entire absence of
the means of their gratification. Let him be
stimulated to frugality and temperance, by the
bright example of their universal practice by
ourselves.”
The Richmond Enquirer has a letter from
General Felix Huston to Dr. Samuel Cartwright
of New Orleans, on the subject of the compara
tive health of black and white laborers in the
South, and an extract lrom a recent publication
by Dr. Cartwright on the same subject. These
papers show that while the W'hite laborers in the
South have been swept to the grave by the
Southern epidemics like chaff before the wind,
the black slave has been unharmed, thus show

drudgery in the Southern climate. A correspon

The late Tallahassee Sentinel contains a pro
clamation of the Mayor of that city, which states
that the ieparted presence of yellow fever at
Newpoit has rendered it necessary that the city
authorities should take measures to preserve the
good health of the citizens, by prohibiting the in*
troduction of anything from the infected district*
w’hich might tend to alarm, or be the means of
producing the epidemic among then*. Conse
quently, the bodies of any who have died in
places infected with the disease, will not be per
mitted to be brought within the limits of the
city for the purpose of interment, The citizens
are recommended to cleanse their premises by
removing everything likely to engender disease,
and to make a free use of lime on their out buil
dings and fences, and occasionally to burn tar on
their lots and in their dwellings.
The Thomasville Watchman of Wednesday
last, learns that three deaths had occurred from
yellow lever at Newport, and sty* that the stage

had occurred at lallahassee. No mention of it
is made, however, by the papers.
reviews in the London papers of the Bri
tish T. rade reports for the month of July, made
up to sth August, make mention of an enormous
increase in the Wine Imports 1,119,481 gallbns,

Ihe Legislature of Maine convened at Au
gusta, on Tuesday w’eek, in obedience to the
Proclamation of the Governor to consider the
subject of the purchase of the lands belgnging to
Massachusetts, situated in Maine. The subject
was referred to a Committee, consisting of seven
on the part of the Senate, and twenty-three on
the part of the House.
The English and French Protest.
The National Intelligencer of Friday morn
ing, reiterates its rumor of the previous day, that
the Ministers ofßritain and France did join
those of Austria, Prussia and Russia, in virtually
protesting against the conduct of Captain In
graham—holding now, however, that their
action was “ a mere expression of the opinion
on the part of the respective Governments that
the conduct of Captain Ingraham at Smyrna
was a violation of the law of nations.” As the
Intelligencer’s editors have better means of
knowing the exact views of the Ministers of the
five Powers above named, than any other jour
nalists in the United States, the Washington
Star takes it for granted that they are correct to
the extent of their intimation that England and
France do not like Ingraham’s conduct.
The masses of Europe, with one accord, hail
it as a harbinger that at least one Government
will not permit Russia and her satraps to walk
rough shod over her rights, in their work of
crushing popular rights everywhere. The in
tense excitement it has created all over the
Continent, operates as an alarm, warning all the
Governments of the old world that they rest
over mines which may explode at any moment.
They dread least some such occurrence may
shortly prove the match exploding them all.
It would not be wonderful, therefore, if the
French and English Ministers would like to
intimate to our State Department, that their
masters and mistress don’t like acts which thrill
the hearts and souls of the various people of
Europe with renewed hopes that the day of their
regeneration is not long distant. We are still of
the impression, however, that they have been
too sensible to commit themselves verbally, or
on paper, to an indirect endorsement of the po
sitions of Russia, Prussia, and Austria, on this
affair.

The Ingraham Demonstration. — At the
meeting held in New York on Tuesday evening,
to do honars to Capt. Ingraham, letters were read
from several prominent gentlemen who had
been invited,but did not attend. Gen. Garibaldi
excused himself from attending on the score of
indisposition, and Mr. Meagher trusted that he
44 should not be considered as acting with any
impropriety toward the committee, if bearing in
mind that” he is “ not as yet a citizen of the
United States,” he refrained from “taking an ac
tive part in a public council, summoned to de
cide upon an act done in foreign waters, by an
officer of the republic.” Hon. Robt. J. Walker
considered the seizure of Kosta a clear violation
of law and justice, and an outrage of our rights
in view of his declaration to become a citizen of
the United States. Hon. Edward Everett ap
plauds Capt. Ingraham’s course, and declares
that both the wrong and outrage were on the
part of Austria, as Kosta was under the protec
tion of Turkey, but he does not express any opin
ion as to his claims to American protection, by
virtue of his declaration to become and Ameri
can citizen.
Democratic Meeting.
Pursuant to public notice, a meeting of the
Democratic party of Richmond county, was held
at the City r Hall, on Wednesday evening, 28th
inst. Henry Johnson, Esq , was called to the
Chair, and Robert A. Whyle requested to act as
Secretary.
Col. Jas. Gardner, after a few preliminary re
marks, offered the following resolutions, whichi
being seconded by Dr. J. M. Hill, were unani
mously adopted :
Resolved , That the Democratic party of Rich
mond county, have undiminished confidence, in
the integrity and patriotism of Gen. Franklin
Pierce, President of the United States, and have
a firm reliance, that the pure record of his poli
tical life on all constitutional and sectional ques
tions, will remain untarnished, and thejpledges
of his Inaugural Address to the people of the
Union, will be fully redeemed.
Resolved , That we recognize in Herschel V.
Johnson, the standard bearer of the Democracy
of Georgia, in the present contest against agita
tors, federalist, and whigs, a sound and reliable
exponent of Democratic principles, a patriotic
co-laborer in the work of quelling sectional ani
mosities, and of stiengthening the hands of the
Federal Administration against taction and sec
tionalism, and that his patriotism, intellect and
exemplary life, alike recommend him to the suf
frages of the people of Georgia for the office of
Governor.
Resolved, That we recognize in John J. Jones,
of Burke county, candidate for Congress, a Dem
ocrat of fine intellect and high character, of
sound political opinions, and worthy the cordial
and zealous support of the Democratic party, and
of all the friends of the Administration, in the
Bth Congressional District.
Resolved, That at this late stage of the can
vass, for seats in the Legislature, the Democracy
of Richmond county deem it inexpedient to no
minate a ticket to represent the county in the
Legislature, but pledges itself to give its support
to such candidates who may be presented for
their suffrages, as sympathise with the Federal
Administration, and whose character for intelli
gence, virtue, and patriotism, and regard for the
interests of the county, will be a guarantee of
fidelity to them.
On motion, the proceedings of the meeting
were ordered to be published.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.
Henry Johnson, President.
Robt. A. Whyte, Secretary.

Jefferson county, Ga., Sept. 26th, 1853.
Mr. Gardner—
Dear Sir: —l take the opportunity to drop
you a few lines to give you a short history of a
Bear Chase on Monday, the 29th of August, in
Jefferson county, Ga., on Briar Creek. Theie
were about thirty men met for the purpose of
hunting a Bear whose signs had been discovered
in different places where he had been, in corn
fields eating corn, water mellons. Peaches, &c.—
About eight o’clock in the morning, a portion of
the men, with about twenty-live or thirty dogs,
principally hounds, entered the Swamp, and in
about thirty minutes roused the Bear in a place
called by the citizens thereabout, Noketchy Is
land, and about the time he entered the open
Swamp, which was a very short time, there
were lour guns discharged at him, all without
effect. The dogs run him until nearly twelve
o’clock, by which time he had got back to near
the place where he was first started, during
which time he had been shot some eight or ten
times more. He w’as then brought to a bay and
•hot some six or eight time more and killed,
though not without some injury to the dogs.—
There were some five or six dogs badly wounded.
The Bear was, I suppose, tolerably thin in order;
he weighed 204 pounds, a pretty good Bear for
Jefferson county, Ga.
Many Bear Hunters.
Hogs—The Crops—Prices.
We clip the following remarks from the Cin
cinnati Gazette of the Bth:
We have, in accordance with our custom, en
deavored to obtain from the various parts of the
Western States, reliable information with re
ference to the crops and other matters connect
ed with the Agricultural interests of the country.
From the advices so far received, we draw the
following conclusions: Wheat has proved a fair
aver ge crop, both as regards quantity and quali
ty ; and the stocks now in the country, including
the surplus from previous years, are large, and
will prove equal to any demand that is at all
likely to be expected. Oats in this section were
light, while in other places, especially farther
West, the crops were heavy. Taking the whole
West, the yield may be set down at two-thirds
of an average crop. The yield of Barley was
heavy. Potatoes two-thirds of a crop. Hay
light in Ohio, Kentucky, and a great portion of
Indiana, and the surplus tor export will be small
er than usual. Corn looks exceedingly well,
and with a favorable fall, the yield will be from
a full average to one-fourth excess. In some
places the yield per acre will be below an aver
age. but in almost every section there was an
increased breadth of land planted. Os Hogs the
■upply is from one-fourth to one-third greater
than last year. The quality is, in some places
better and in others not so good as at this time
last season ; but taken altogether, it may be re
garded as a lair average. Beef Cattle are every
where scarce, dear, and in demand—and there
cannot, in any event, be an average supply.
Farmers are increasing their stock as fast as pos
sible, but it will be three years before we may
expect the usi.al supply of Beeves.
[From the Charleston Mercury , 21 ih msf.J
Cotton Crop in Florida.
We have been politely furnished with the fol
lowing letter from an intelligent and reliable
source, Ly a mercantile house in this city :
“ Tallahassee, Sept. 17.
The Caterpillars are not so bad as heretofore
represented. A few days since I noticed them
for the first time, and set them down as the first
crop or hatch. Others say it is the second crop;
in that case,Cotton will be cut off at least a third.
I still incline to the opinion that it is their first
appearance, which will occcasion not more than
half the loss above stated. I have never known
so destructive a spell of weather as we have had
for the last two weeks on Cotton. All the open
Cotton is either beaten out into the ground, or
sprouted. The grown and half grown bolls,
many of them, are rotted. It is hard to esti
mate now the loss, but you may rely on it that
an average crop cannot be made. In addition,
what is usually the fairest portion of our crop,
will this yeai* be very sorry. I received a letter
a few days since from one of our iargest and best
planters, who plants in the heart of the greatest
Cotton growing district in this State. He says
that before the rains his crop was not as good
as usual, “though his neighbors said theirs were
very fine.” The Sea Island Cotton, on an
average, was better in comparison this year
than the short staple, up to the late rains, but
has suffered more than the other from the cause,
for this reason, that with the short staple, after
it has sprouted, by sunning and keeping it tossed
about until dried, we can make a tolerably de
cent looking article; but when the Sea Island
sprouts in the boll, it is impossible to roll or gin
it, from the fact that the seed becomes soft and
crushes between the rollers, producing, as you
know, a stained and, foul cotton sample. Os
course the evil runs on for weeks to come, until
ail the sprouted Cotton is gathered; as a mixture
with what opens later oontinues the difficulty.
The Sea Island planters must saw-gin that por
tion of their crop. They talk now of a loss of a
third. I presume the quantity of Sea Island that
will go through New Port and Cedar Keys this
year, will be between 4 and ,7000 bales.”
j Weather and Crops. —The weather for the
past few weeks has been exceedingly unfavora
ble for cotton crops. We hear of much com
plaint and apprehension amongst the planters.-
In fact it is supposed that scarcely an half crop
will be realized this year. The corn crops are
flourishing. A gentleman from Ti-ihamingo states
that corn in that county is offering at $1 per
j berrel. Fine crops in Marshall.— Holly Springs

Where verthat great Medicine called
H. G. Farrell's Celebrated Arabian
Liniment, has boon introduced, it has performed
the most extraordinary cures in the annals of medi
cal history—every body who uses it once becomes
it warmest friend—they not only keep it always
on hand for the benefit of its timely use in cases
ofemergency, but recommend it to all their friends.
It has been before the public for nearly ten years,
and yet is daily developing new virtues; many dis
j oases have been cured by it, for which the pro
j prietor had never recommended it; its magical vir
' tues spreads through the land with the speed of
lightning, and many, very many poor invalids who
supposed their days on this earth were fast drawing
to a close, have been by a persevering use of this
invaluable Liniment, healed, and now rejoice in
| the blessings of health, and the enjoyment of this
! beautiful world. Read this to believe, and not to
j doubt. Inquiro of your neighbors whom you know
to have used it, and they will tell you that no med
icine ever discovered possesses the half of its extra
ordinary healing powers. The racking pains of
rheumatism and neuralgia yield in a few minutes
to its powerfully anodyne properties. “ The lame
are made to walk.” Old sores, which have rendered
the subject a loathsome thing to behold, are heal
od. The weak an trembling, from deranged state
of the nerves, by the use of this Liniment, rejoice
in the recovery of their former health and strength.
Many long standing affections oi the liver, lungs
and kidney have yielded to its use after the various
remedies had failed. It is very efficacious in cu
ring the diseases of hors ’s and cattle, such as swee
ny, sprains, bruises, swellings, cramps, lameness,
dry shoulder, splint, etc., an.d if used in the begin
ning, never fails to stop tho furthor progress of fis
tula, poll-evil, ringbone and spavin.
Look out for Counterfeits. —Tho public aro cau
tioned against another counterfeit, which has late
ly madeit3 appearance, called W. B. Farrell’s Ara
bian Liniment, the most dangerous of all tho coun
terfeits, because his having the name of Farrell,
many will buy it in good faith, without the knov -
ledge that a counterfeit exists, and they will, per
haps, only discover their error when the spurious
mixture has wrought its evil effects.
The genuine article is manufactured only by H
G. Farrell, sole invontor and proprietor, and whole
sale druggist, No. 17 Main street, Peoria, Illinois*
to whom all applications for Agencies must be ad

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 2-I.— Cotton. Arrived
since the 10th inst., 7223 bales. Cleared in the
' same time 2475 bales. Stock in presses, and on
shipboard not cleared on the 23d instant, 18674
bales.
_ The receipts of Cotton are still comparatively
limited, but as there has been some considerable
1 increase en the supply of last week, witioai a
■ corresponding increase in the demand, the id
■ vantage ii prices has been on the side of buyers,
. and we notice a deelino of J a j cent from the
i rates ot last week. The sales of the week sumip
, about 3900 bales, taken principally for Franceand
, England, with some few parcles for tho Continent
and the North, and the market closes with very
iittle animation, as there appear to bo but few or
ders at present prices. The transaction* have been
almost wholy in new crop, to which our own
quotations apply, and we would remark that the
average quality of tho receipts is considerably be
low that of the same period last year.
_ The backwardness of the crop, and the obstruc
tions to its roacning market promptly and freely,
aro demonstrated by the comparatively limited
extent of tho receipts, which up to this time arc
only 11,210 bales of the new crop , against 65,86 d
, bales to same date last year. Tho obstructimtu
which we refer are tho e which we anticipated ii
i our Annual Statement,(and which grow out of the
prevalence of yellow fever in tho city and in the
l river towns. As to the probale result of the crop,
it seems now to be the general impression that the
prospects for a liberal yield aro decidedly less fa
vorabio than they appeared to be in the middle
j and latter part es August, the continued rains b»v
--l ing interfered materially with picking operation:,
I and caused injury to the crop in various particu
