J Ascension of a Youthful |2£ronaut. About 2.000 persons collected yesterday after noon at Oakland to see Mr Kelly make the pro mised ascension in his balloon. The balloon for the occasion was one of the largest size, about 18 feet in diameter, and made of yellow silk. The scene lor the ascension was in the town, not far from the wharf. The arrangements for the manufacture of gas were not properly managed, and at 1 o’clock, the time fixed for the ascen sion, the balloon was not more than half full. At 3 o’clock it was two-thirds full, and the crowd becoming impatient, Kelly determined to try it. He had provided blankets, provisions, bags of sand, and so forth, but the ballon would not rise with him. Kelly being rather heavy, several lighter men then got in, but they were still too heavy. During this time the balloon was loosened and moved off about 200 yards, sweeping along near the ground. The crowd called for a boy. and a number of them who were near cried “ Let me go.” The car had been taken off so as to make the ballon as light as possible, and a light hoop about an inch square and three feet iri diameter, with a light board four inches wide lashed across the middle,offered the only position for a seat Upon one end of this board where it rested on the hoop, a boy named Joseph Gates, aged 16 yd&rs, took*his seat partner, who was* • atf little distance, cried to them to hold on till he had given the boy the proper directions; but be bad barely time to tell the boy to pull the rope when ha hould wish to come down, when the persons near let go, and the balloon arose It first took a southward course until it bad gone about two miles, when i? struck ano* her current ot air and took a northern course, and when la * seen was among the clouds, probably eight or ten miles,northeastward!y ot Oakland, and 800 • or 1,000 teet high. The boy wag Q. fruit vender, of this <yty was selling frpft,in Oakland yesterday His parents JivS in California street. «He went up without*»nv provisions or any clothing ex cept an ordJfary He weighed about ninety pounds, and. appeared to be about years ot age. tbongh he was really sixteen. ~ ' hold of the valve rope, when Kelly’s pawner fold him that it would be necessary to . puli it to let the balloon down. Some persons satj] they saw the boy pull the rope and saw it break butrhisisnot probable, as the rope ap pealed strong enough to bear two hundred • pounds. Nosoouer had the balloon risen than the crowd began to express their regie's Kelly tried to pacify them by saying the boy had been up before, but all hi% companions d*uy it. He was rising very rJTpidly when' last seen v and moving st>ll morerapiiily to the northeast. No one can tell what his fate may b«. He had‘%iot even fixed himself properly on his seat, bfftr w#is sitting on the edge ot the hoop and leaning ba*k. upon a rope. • It he does not succeed in op^ning the valve to let himself down, be will be in danger of becoming so numb with cold as to fall out, or be might be frozen to death by the ex treme cold ; or, if he succeeds in getting down safely,-no-one knows how far it may be from any human habitation. Several of these present assert positively that ■ the boy let the rop#^^and that it blew up over the netting. If this be true, there is little hope of his escape alive. *'’ l From the Alta Cal if or tiftt > Aug 30.] Safe Return of the Boy JEroagut. Joseph Gates, the boy who made an ascension in a balloon from Oakland on Sunday afternoon, and for whose safe return there appeared little ground to hope, arrived last evening in the Sac ramento boat, safe except a sprain in his ankle. He landed in Suisun Valley, fifteen miles from Benicia, and five miles from any house. He re tained his presence of mind throughout, during the hour and a half that he was in the air, in which time he travelled about fifty miles. He was excited when he started, but when be had risen a slight distance he became perfectly collected, and leaned back in an easy position against the cords. Here he sat, and for a long time heard the cries of the crowd below, and saw the whole bay and the couutry from San Francisco to Sacramento. The only unpleasant sensation he felt was cold in his feet. He took off one shoe, and tied a handkerchief about his foot, and then took off the other shoe, but dropped his handkerchief, and had to put on that shoe as it was before. He wanted to come down soon after the bal loon started, but the rope broke ; but he was not disconcerted nor frightened. He knew very well whither the balloon was goingjand wanted to land near Bonicia, but could not climb the ropes to cut the balloon, as he wished. This he knew was his only hope, and he persevered un til he succeeded in getting up to the body of the balloon and cutting a hole with his penknife. He was careful not to make the hole too large, and when he was satisfied that it was of the' right size, he slipped down to the hoop. The balloon descended very gradually, and as it reach ed the ground in the opoea plain he sprang off. The balloon, lightened of his weight, rose again rapidly. He then walked five miles before he reached a house, and the next day he walked to Bonicia. This aeonautic tour is, undoubtedly, one of the mest remarkable on record. When we consider I the youth and inexperience of the navigator, the | unexpectedness ot the trip, the scanty accomrno dations, his success in climbing up the cords and j cutting the balloon in a perfectly suecefsful man ner, and bis fortunate escape from the many dangers, the voyage has scarcely an equal lor ro mantic interest from the time of Mongolfier up to the present day. To climb the cords was a labor of extreme d fficulty, for they weie only about a quarter of an inch in thickness, and the distance irom the hoop to a point practicable for cutting was about twelve feet. But few persons could perform the feat of climbing such cords near the earth and much less three miles above, for that was about the height to which he ascend ed. He saw not a little danger, but his voyage will become famous, and his name will be spo ken from Euro|»e to Austialia He can sell or ganges and nu*s with a perfect rush tor a few days. One of the first questions, af’er his arri val here. w<s what his partner had done with the money ior the oianges and pea nuts in the basket he left behind He was not entirely sorbed by the romance of im voyage, nor for ful by the fright. A Cut© Yankee. The following good one is published in the September number cf Harper’s Magazine It is told by a correspondent who signs himself “ Timmins ” Among our passengers coming home, said he, was Mr. H , not long ago a deputy collector in our port, at the custom house ; a most enter taining gentleman, who has no idea that be is telling any: hmg amusing, until he is reminded ot it by toe loud laughter of everybody about him When I was Deputy Collector in New York, says be, l was sitting in my office one hot af rer noon, when a long. slab«ided. Yarikee-looking fellow came in with a kind of guilty look, his hat dangling in his hand, his head hanging on one side, and his eyes cast down, but with a curious kind of a smile too, as I thought, sneaking fitful ly across his face. He stood by the door for a minute, twirling his hat, and seeming to be afraid to come forward to where I was sitting. “ Well, sir,” I asked, “ what he wanted ?” “ Be you Mr H ?” said he. Yes, Mr H is my name.” “ Yaes; but be you the Deputy Collector of > New York State ?” 1 I answered that I was the Deputy Collector of the Customs of the city of New York. “Edzactly.” says he—“ yeas ; the very man I 1 want to see.” He hesitated again, and twirled his hat more 1 rapidly than ever. < “ What is your business with me? state it,” ; said I, rather sharply. “My time is too valu- - able to be wasted in useless talk or delay.” < “ Yaes,” said he ; “ ’dzactly so. Well you see, 1 I’ve got into a leetle trouble; and I come to see 1 if you couldn’t help me out a little.” 1 He fingered his hat again, and I grew impa- t tient and nervous. “Go on,” said I, “ and get through. What ia g your trouble ? and bow can I help you ?or what d j*gve / got to do with it,” . I f w Well,” he went on, “ I was dowH to Havana the other day, and being fond of smokin’ I bought a few cigars for my own use: and when we got back to ’York, I didn’t know that there would be any hurt in bringing in a few ; but as a man w T as bringing on 'em up Broad street, they was arrested ‘ for dewties,’ the man said— ‘ dew ties, and he said they must all be forfeited, or confiscated, and that I could not have none on em none on ’em,’ he said, 1 unless I could git em entered.’ And he told me I couldn’t get noneon ’em entered until you had give permis sion, and that he rather thought you wouldn’t do it, dewty <Jr no dewty. I was struck with his simplicity—his green ness. I thought at the time—and was disposed to overlook what might have been an attempt at smuggling, in consideration of the fact, that after all it was probably pure ignorance. So I said: “As you seem to have been igno rant of the revenue laws, I will enter your ci gars, and you can have them upon the payment of the duty. How' many had you ? ” “ Twenty thousand on ’em !” “Twenty thousand cigars for your own use ? This alters the case entirely.” “Wellnot’dzactly for my own use, but I wanted some for my friends to smoke tew That’s all.” ’ “ Well, sir, on payment of the duty, the cigars may be taken away.” Dewty! not arter they’re ‘ entered ,’ there am tno dewty , is there ? That’s what the man said tha» took them off the cart.” I explained to him that the cigars must pay a duty, and that it was a great favor to himself to be permitted to take them away at all. “ Well,” he said, putting on his bat,and hold ing the door ajar, “ I hain’t got no money to pay dewties; but I’ll go up town, up to street, i to see a friend of mine, and maybe he'll take ’em j out. Good-arternoon. 1” ! The next day, just as I was about leaving my desk, the Yankee •* operator” came in, bringing a dark, Spanish-looking person. « ••« [Ve come to get them cigars,” said he, “ that wa^ arrested for dewties. My friend, here, will payjjjia.dewties.” j Thaftcessary preliminaries were gone through the cigars were taken away. * • E#rly on the morning of the next day, as I i "*■’ sitting at my desk, I felt a faint tap on my shqplder ; and looking up, who should I see but » my Yankee customer standing over me! “ How de du to-day ?” said he. “ I am quite well, thank you ; but what do you want of me now ? j “ Nothin’,” said he—“ nothin’—got done!” | . And he gave a wink and a leer that none but just such a lankee as himself could give. I “We did that thing up handsome, did'nt we ?” j said he. “ W>>at thing?” I asked. i “ Why, them cigars,” said he. “ They was’nt Cuba cigars, them cigars was made in Connecti cut 1 I got a factory tneie myself; and I had them " took up,’ on suspicion. But folks.” he added,“ will like ’em iust as well as the choicest Havannas. Fact is there’s a good deai of decep cion piactuced about cigars J” I showed the impudent, designing, unscru j pulous lellow the door and he went out wink : ing and laughing. “ We did that thing up hand | som !” as it I myseif had been a party to the j nefarious transaction i Iron.—We mentioned (says the New York in a brief article on the subject of Iron our enterprising capitalists were attention to investments in the nrraTiffjjjcture of Iron, but we find that such in vestments although made to a very considerable j extent am in no way commensurate with the increasing consumption of the country. The j manufacture of Iron will undoubtedly very soon j become the most important business interest in | this country, and those who early engage in it, at favoiahle locations, must reap immensely profitable results from their invtstment. The many railroads now making through different paits of our inteiior, are giving access to mineral regions, the value of which are now little dream ed of by their present owners. We have un doubtedly Iron ore, in quality equal to any in the world, and we have it in the Iron mountain ot Missouri, and in Lycoming county, Pennsyl vania, in quantity positively inexbaustable. We have before us the report of the Lycoming Iron I and Coal Company, J. F. Butterworth, Esq . Pre sident, from which we learn that this company own some two thousand acres of land in Lycom ing county most of which is covered with hori zontal strata of Iron ore and Bituminous Coal in | quantity sufficient to produce fen millions of tons \ of Iron , and adjoining this tract are some fifteen ! thousand acres of land on which are the same veins of ore and coal. From the certificate of W. C. Frego, an old and experienced Iron mas ter, which accompanies the above report, we see that he says that Pig Iron can be produced in Lycoming county, for about $lO per top. It would seem almost marvellous that with Pig Iron selling at $35. that such extensive min eral wealth should remain undeveloped. Indeed we «lo not believe it will long remain so, for by this report we also learn that a Railroad is now being made from Elmira in this State to Wil liamsport, Pa., which passes directly through the mineral region of Lycoming county. The qual ity of the Iron made trom the ore of Lycoming county, would appear from the certificates an nexed to the Director’s report, and from Profes sor Hodges’ report, to be very superior. Mr. Hodge says in his notes taken when on the Geo logical Survey of the State “ The Iron made from this white ore is said to bring ten dollars on the ton more than that from any Centre coun ty ore. It takes the form of the mould in its minutest parts and makes strong castings, and when refined will bear repeated bending back and forth without fracture.” We feel that in encouraging the increase of the manufacture ot Iron by showing to the capi talist what to us appear as favorable locations for the erection of Iron works, we are benefiting not only the producer and consumer of Iron, but what to us, is of far greater importance, we are 1 greatly increasing the demand for healthy labor and thereby benefiting the workm- men whose service will be necessary to bring out thisminer al wealth. If is also a question of no small im portance land owners and farmers in the neigh borhood who have opened to them here new markets and new means of wealth. [From the N. O. Picayune 4th inst.\ From the West Indies. We have received files of the Kingston (Ja maica) Morning Journal to the 12th ult. The yellow fever, we perceive trom them, still continued to carry off occasional victims In Jamaica, as here, the sufferers are principally unacclimated persons. Among the deaths caused by this scourge we see recorded those ot Staff Surgeon Ferguson, ol the British armv, who died at Up-park Camp, on the 30th of August - As sistant Surgeon Walter W. Harris, who died at the same place on the 6th ult.; and Assistant Surgeon Gideon I\ W Griffith. ..f the 3<l West India Regiment, who died at Lucea,on the26th. ! These gentlemen had all lately ariived in the colony. There is Jittle room to doubt that he 1 th-re been sufficient field tor the operation of the j disease, produced by immigration. Jamaica would have suffered with all the severity that the Southern States have from this terrible pesti lence. The new Governor. Sir Henry Barkly, had not yet arrived, but intelligence had been received that he would arrive about the 13th of Septem ber. Mrs B-irkiy would proceed to Jamaica by way of New York, together with the Chief Jus tice, Su Joshua Rowe, and his lady, who are returning al er an absence of more than a year and a halt I hey left England on the Ist ult Sir Henry Barkly’s Secretary, Mr. Austin, had arrived on the 9ih ult. Immediately on thear riva ol the new Governor, however, he was to proceed to New York to accompany Mrs. Barkly thence to Jamaica. Sir Charles Edward Grey st’ll remained in the island, and we yet see no announcement of nis being about to leave it. A meeting, indeed, had been got up in Kingston to present an address to him on his approaching departure, but the ad dress is justly treated as of itself a burlesque on truth and merit and a> inviting, or rather pro voking, a warmer condemnation of his odious and disastrous administration, than the inhabi tants might otherwise have been inclined to express. That meeting was called by the Custos, at the instance of such parties as confer no honor on him by their expressions. Another meeting was immediately called by the Mayor, at the instance of every name of influence or standing in the city, not, indeed, for the pur pose of directly, boldly and justly condemning the conduct of Sir Charles, but of indirectly doing so in an address of welcome to be prepared for his successor. Mining operations are being pressed with a good deal of energy by the inhabitants, and un der ordinary circumstances the prospects of their I proving eminently successful would be consider ed more cheering. But, as usual, they are threat ened with blight from the “mother-country.” When the Government is not interfering to crush the hopes and efforts of the colony, power ful interests rise up and do for themselves what according to their creed she ought to be doing for them. So, now, such endeavors are being made in England either to monopolize the mines, or to prevent the formation of companies in England for working them, as the colonists de clare that they will only with the greatest dif ficulty, it at all, be able to surmount. Public meetings, however, had been held and strong efforts were being made to this end, and we can only wish them success. Letters had been received from those who emigrated for Australia in the bark Glentanner. 1 hey had arrived at Bahia in Brazil. One child had died since their departure ; there was a case of measles on board at Bahia ; and one passenger had been putin irons “for telling the captain he w - as ho Englishman” With these exceptions all were well. Mr. Joseph Stone Williams, a young member of the Jamaica bar, had been appointed Attor ney General of Honduras. The report given in the last Jamaica papers of the death of the Governor of Honduras proves to have been an error. That of the Governor of the Bahamas was meant. Highly Interesting from the Japan Expe dition. By the overland Indian mail, received in En gland, we learn that the United States expedi tion sailed from Loo Choo on July 3, for Japan. The announcement is thus made in the Over land Register of July 23:—Commodore Perry with the steamers Susquehanna and Princeton, and the ships of war Plymouth and Saratoga, left their anchorage on the coast of Loo-Choo, on the 3d inst., (or Japan. Tne Powhatan is now on her way from Singapore, and the Vandalia fiigate may be daily looked lor here, when it is exacted both vessels will immediately proceed to join the Commodore. The following inter- I esfing notice ol a visit made to the island of Bo- I nian we extract from the North China Herald j of the 9th inst: Information has reached us privately, that | while the United States fleet were in the neigh borhood of Napikan, (Napakiang ?) the Susque hanna and Saratoga went on a cruise eastward, and touched at sevetal beautiful islands, where 1 they distributed live stock. Tney also touched iat an island named Bonian. To their su-prise they discovered a few European residents, con sisting oi English, Scotch, Irish and Spanish, who had leit whalers and established themselves there. Amongst them were about eleven women. The Governor ot the island is a Scotchman. He claims the island as his own, and has been set tled there about twenty years. He has a family ot several children, one of whom was drowned a few days before the Susquehanna touched there, in endeavoring to cross the bar. The Commodore has made a purchase of a piece of land containing about ten acres, for fifty dollars. It is in a good situation, on one of the best sites of the harbor, arid is intended for a gov ernment coal depot. The island is mountainous, and the harbor excellent, having from eighteen to twenty fathoms of water at the anchorage. Shellfish, such as lobsters and crayfish, abound ; on land plenty of wild goats are to be found.— Plums, bananas, plantains, and other varieties of fruit, are abundant on the island. The Russian frigate Callas, and a Russian brig of-war, immediately followed the American squadron. With reference to the American Japan expe dition, we find the following in the Weser Ga zette:—“ft is stated that the Russian government has resolved to resist the attempts of the Ameri cans against Japan, and that the Russian squad ron which recently sailed lor those seas was in tended for that purpose. The Russian govern ment has sent for Professor Siebold, who resides on the bank of the Rhine, to obtain from him every information relative to Japan, and as to the best means to be adopted to defeat the at tempt of the United States. M. Siebold is w ell acquainted with Japan, having resided there many years. The Dutch government is said to be pleased with this determination of the cabi net of St Petersburg, as the Americans also threaten the Dutch archipelago, and as, moreover, the English press express themselves in favor of the Americans, and have lately begun to throw discredit on the Dutch rule in the East Indies.” British Intervention in South America. A letter in the London Times, dated Buenos Ayres, Aug. 2d, states that the fall of Urquiza has “just brought to light a piece of diplomacy that will redound little, in these regions, to the credit of Sir Charles Hotham and M. St. Georges. It appears, and beyond doubt, that, in the certain prospect of his fall, these gentlemen negotiated with the late Provisional Director the cession of the Island of Martin Garcia, the Gibraltar of the Parana, to the British and French Governments, as a guarantee for the free navigation of the in terior rivers. It is a most odious transaction, for which General Urquiza had not a shadow of right or authority, and will be resisted with the last drop of Argentine blood, and it may lead to com plications with the United States and Brazil, the remote consequences of which no one can fore see or predict ” The New York Herald remarks that the is land of Martin Garcia is the key to the whole ol that valuable portion of South America which has been for the last forty years undergoing a series of revolutions and changes of goverr. ment without number. It is worthy of remark that at the very time when this negotiation was go ing on, England and France were urging their tripartite treaty on the United States, by which we were to forego forever the possession of Cuba. An Editor’s Life.— The Demopolis"Sentinel thus plainly discourses on this subject: “ The fate of an editor is beyond question a hard one. Other kinds of business have inter vals of relaxation, in which the energies of the mind are invigorated by change; but there is no rest for either publisher or editor. It is his du ty to cater to the amusement of his readers, and in seeking to perforin this part of his duty, he chains himself down, and whilst the laugh is merrily ringing under his office, and everybody is exulting in exemption trom labor, he is taxing every faculty, turning his brains “topsy tuivy” —ransacking huge piles of insipid papers in quest of something for his readers. Those who have never felt the necessity of writing, regardless of the condition of the body, or the frame of! mind, can form no adequate conception of the I hardship of an editorial life. When he has i written, then comes the tug. Every blockhead has to pick at and critise his articles. The grave ! and phlegmatic has no relish for anecdotes, and the devil-may-care sort of a fellow thinks that ! too much spac*- is devoted to grave matters the i housewife scolds her husband for taking the pa- ! per, because there are no receipts in it tor ma king pies or curing whooping-cough—old maids are angry because no more marriages are an- 1 nounced. Thus it is that an editor can never please everybody.” Railroads in England.—The Travels and , the Receipts. —According to an official docu- • j ment recently submitted to Pa.liament, the i nUI T TT° f P® s f en S ers conveyed on the railways , ol the United Kingdom during the six months j ending on the dlst of December last, was 49- 886,123; of which 5,859.215 were of the Ist ] class. 17.524.651 of the second class, 26.484 866 ■, of the third and Parliamentary classes and 17,- j 991 were holders of season tickets. The aggre gate of receipts Irom this number of passengers j was £4 360 168 The receipts in the same ~pe riod Horn the transport of goods, cattle, parcels and ma Is, amounted to £4,5CD,105; and the to tal income derived from the two branches of traffic amounted to <£8.850 273. This was an in crease in the total income ove/ that of the pre ceding year of £602 336 : but it is remarkable that, with so large an increase in the aggregate, there was a diminution in the receipts from pas sengers 0f£230,659. This comparative falling j off of this branch of revenue is attributed to the effect of the Great Exhibition of 1851, in having not only augmented the receipts of that year, but reduced in s'ome degree those of the year fol lowing from the large number ot merely occa sional visitors to the capital, who had availed , themselves of the period when it presented an unusual attraction. Ihe Weather —Saturday night and Sunday gave indication of abundant showers of rain, which would have been serviceable in laying the annoying dust of the streets. The wind was from the Bouth and West and heavy black clouds overspread the whole heavens, but no rain came, and yesterday morning we had a sharp bracing wind Irom the north, which continued nearly j all day. We are not as yet advised whether this change had any effect upon the health of the i city.— Mobile Register ith. » t , r La^er from California. i k\v York, Oct. 4.—The steamship Crescent arrived this evening at 10 o’clock. She brings 000 passengers and a million in specie, in cluding among her treasure $40,000 of Australian gold, per Adams & Co.’s Express, being the first shipment Irom that county by the California , route. 1 he Crescent City left Aspinwall on the morn ing ol the 25th ult. On the second day out she met the steamship Star of the West. West ol Caicos she also saw a ship dismasted. The health ol the Isthmus was good, and the weather very pleasant. The news from the Isthmus was otherwise unimportant. Australia. —The Crescent City brings Aus tralian dates to the 20th of July, which had been received at Panama. The miners in Australia w'ere agitating a reduction in the license tax.— Large meetings had been held, which those in I attendance were armed to the teeth. Great ex citement prevailed, and it was feared that diffi culties would ensue. Fresh discoveries of gold had been made, and the mining intelligence was favorable. Valparaiso. — Valparaiso dates to the Ist ol September have also been received. The markets were dull except for flour, which was brisk at $8 50. Catharine Hayes was soon to complete her career at the rate of $2,000 per night. The papers give further particulars of the state of affairs at the Chinchas, growing out of the dif ficulty with the American ship Defiance. The Defiance, on going to sea, saluted the other American vessels, and was fined, A second sa lute was then fired, which so enraged the Peru vian commander of the port that he went on board the Defiance with three boats with armed men. After a severe encounter, the captain ol the Defiance was seized and bound, and then thrown into one of the boats, by which he was severely injured The Peruvian commander hav ing taken posse siou ol the Defiance, took her to Calloa, and retained the commander in prison. Mr. Clay, the American minister to Lima, forth with chartered the British steamship Bolivia, and went in her to Chinchas to investigate the whole affair. He has transmitted the result of his in vestigation in a dispatch to Washington Business has become paralyzed throughout the republic of Bolivia. The most exciting stories have reached Santi ago de Borgia of gold discoveries made on the Amazon and Branches rivers. The washings were said to extend tor forty leagues, and 25 pounds ol the precious metal were mentioned as the average ol one man’s labor. Pulaski Monument.— We are happy to learn that the Commissioners have caused the founda tions to be laid in Monterey square for the erec tion ot a equitable monument to the memory of Brigadier General Count Casimir Pulaski, and that on Tuesday next the corner stone will be laid with all due form by the Masonic fraterni ty. The volunteer companies of Savannah will participate in the ceremonies, and an address will be delivered by Henry Williams, Esq., ot this city. On tne 21st of March, 1825, General LaFay ette, then on a visit to th s city, assisted by the Masonic Lodges, laid the coiner stone of the monument now standing in Johnson square to the memory of Gen. Nathaniel Greene, and on the same day another was laid in Chippewa square for a monument to Count Pulaski. The amount of funds collected have not till now been sufficient for the erection of both monu ments. Hence the one in Johnson square has heretofore been known as the “Greene and Pulas ki Monument.” In 1820 the State Legislature granted a Lottery tor the purpose of raisi ig a fund for the erection ot these monuments, and we are gratified that the operations of this lot tery have at last resulted in the procurement ol the necessary means to build the second monu ment. On the 11th of October, 1779, Count Pulaski, in Savannah, sealed with his blood in death his devotion to American Liberty, and the anniversary of that day is a fitting period for the imposing ceremonials ot laying the corner stone for the erection of a monument sacred to his memory. The foundation is a substantial piece of work by Messrs. Lufburrow & Jones, and the superstructure will be reared by Mr. Rob-rt E. Lounitz. Why this monument was not reared in Chippewa^square, upon the corner stone laid by Gen. Lafayette in 1825, we are not advised. Sav. Republican , Ith inst. I he Weather. —After some eight days’ spell of fine, bright, spring-like, bracing weather, we were on Saturday introduced to one of those un meaning, provoking days, that so invariably ac company a fixed change in this climate. And on Sunday evening the change itself came, after the changeable day. Sunday was itself a de lightful day, but immediately after dusk the wind gradually veered towards the North, banged win dows and doors about a little, and made the “folks at home” fancy themselves all the more com fortable for the latter being closely shut. War mer covering at night was found necessary; and some people began to speculate on the price of coal. Yesterday opened with all but a wintry aspect, and although some ventured out without looking before them, they were reminded pretty keenly that it was not so warm as it had been. We know at least one who tooiv the first oppor tunity to get home and exchange summer drill for warmer woolen; and by the time night was coming on he wondered how he should have felt if he had not. Winter is coming now—that is a fact.— N. O. Picayune , 4th inst. Life Insurance. —The Superior Court has given a decision in the case of Callander vs. The Keystone Lite Insurance Company. It is clearly decided, that any misrepresentation or conceal ment by any applicant for insurance of a fact which is material to the risk, whether made by mistake or fraud, is latal to the policy—and that any lact, which, if known, would increase the risk or the premium, is material. The defence set up by the Company was, that Callander had committed suicide, and that moreover, he had misrepresented his occupation at the time of ap plying for his policy by calling himself a farmer, whereas, he was engaged in slave-catching. Lhese tacts were clearly made out on the trial, and the Supreme Court aflirrn that such defence is a good one, and fatal to the policy. Wisely Done. —At the recent session of the hock River Conference of the M. E. Church, held in this city, a series of resolutions were in troduced upon the subject of slavery. The Con ference very wisely considering, as we suppose, that the question was one over which they had no jurisdiction, that its agitation on their part could only result in stirring up bitterness and strife within the bosom ol the Church and it fur ther inflaming the sectional animosities which previous agitation had engendered, stamped the whole thing with the seal of their reprobation, by tabling the resolutions. Other religious de nominations would undoubtedly promote the ends of their organization by following the ex ample of the Rock River Conference upon this subject.— Chicago Democratic Press. Custom House Revenues. — We annex a ta ble ol the Custom House revenues for the year ending 30th June, 1853, which, it will be seen amount to SSB 931865 52 against $47 339 326 60 for 1852, and $49,017,567 92 for the fiscal year ending 30th June, 1851. New York, as usual, litres the largest, being about two-thirds of the whme. At the five principal ports comprising New York, Boston, Philadelphia, New Orleans and ban F rancisco, the aggregate exceeds 54 mil lions of dollars.

Crossing thk Atlantic in a week.— Since we noticed the statement made by Mr. Norris of the building of a steamship—himself the engi- I lie ®. r ’W. Griffiths the nautical architect— which was to cross the Atlantic in six days, a number of inquiries have been made of us re specting it. Answers to them cannot be given ; 18 • to Wa ' fc development of events, J?rom Major Norris and Mr. Griffiths we expect nothing ordinary, and if their vessel makes the voyage in eight and a half days, instead of six, ! the / m « st «et the broom. This would be most extraordinary sailing, as it would be an average of 360 miles every day. We shall be more than : satisfied it the new steamship does this. Any thing new that may come before us respecting it we shall report to our readers.— Scientific Ameri can. AUGUSTA, GA. SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 9. Election Returns. We have the following returns in addition to those published yesterday: Emanuel County. The Savannah Georgian of yesterday, says a report had reached that city, that Emanuel coun ty had given Seward upwards of fifty majority, and that the probability is that Seward is elect ed by three or four hundred majority. Rabun. A private letter received by us last evening, states that Johnson’s majority in Rabun county [official), is 260 votes. Savannah, Oct. S. In Lowndes, Jenkins’ majority is reported at 22, and Seward’s 38. In Camden,Johnson has a majority of 179 and Seward 180. In Montgomery,Jenkins has a majority of 239 and Bartow 209. Richmond County Democracy. In no part ot the State was the battle for the principles of the Democratic party, and the vin dication of the Federal Executive, fought with more gallantry, and determined nerve than in this county. Long overshadowed by a majority sometimes reaching near four hundred, the Demo crats have fought hitherto under the conviction of defeat, and fought only from pride of opinion and a stern sense of duty. The contest opened this year under not less disheartening circum stances. It was to be fought against a confident party, having at its head its most meritori ous son, whose home. and warmest friends were in our midst—here where he had not an enemy, and where there were none who did not wish him, in all respects, politics excepted, success and prosperity. It was under these circumstances, and almost without preparation or organization, and without a tull ticket in the field on which to rally, the Democrats went into the contest and marched to the polls. The result proved the party stronger than it has been for many vears. It is notorious that many Democrats voted for Mr. Jenkins, and yet his gain was but eighteen over the vote ot the Whig candidate in 1849. This encourages the Democracy to renewed ef fort, and they leei confident that one more such contest will give them the county. Col. Mil ledge bore himself gallantly [and ably through out—winning many friends by his frank and bold bearing, ar d proving even to his most zea lous opponents that he had talents, energy and popularity that are destined to be formidable to them, and valuable to the Democratic party in many a future contest. He has already proved that his services as a legislator are valuable, not to a party merely, but to his native county and State. The time will come when he will be again called into requisition. The Election—lts incidents and Excite ments. The week just closed has been probably the most exciting, politically, ever known in Geor gia. Certainly in this community there never has been any thing of the kind to surpass it. Both parties went into the contest on Monday last with high hopes, mingled with many anxious fears for the result. Every body felt interested. Every body felt excited. Not only did “the lords of creation,” but we may add “the ladies of crea tion,” and the boys and the little children partici pated in it. Even the musical little darkies felt it as they carolled in the streets to the tune of “I’ll bet my money on the bobtail nag, Will somebody bet on the bay ?” Every body bet something that had no scru ples against betting ; and no doubt some did who had, but the latter took pains not to let the left hand know what the right hand was doing, and we presume with equal quietness will fork over, or rake down the stakes. As the returns came in from day to day and from hour to hour by telegraph, and the prospects of the opposing candidates for Governor alter nately brightened and grew dim, their respective friends took their turns upon the anxious ben ches. In fact those benches were fully occupied all the time, and sometimes there was a little crowding to make room for all the mourners. Not a few who had never thought seriously be fore on the subject of betting on elections, in its ethical aspects, began to moralize most contritely in calmly reviewing the matter, and to suspect that they had done wrong. These salutary re flections were not confined to one side, but were equitably participated in by both Whigs and Democrats. Still there were occasions not only for hope, but for most jutulant ebullitions, kindly allotted to each, and their respective can didates were several times elected by the re turns, apparently, beyond a doubt. On Friday night, both the Chronicle office and that ot the Constitutionalist, were scenes of bois terous excitement, the streets in front were pack ed with a dense mass of citizens, and the air resounded alternately, with the cries of hurrah for Jenkins,Jiurrah for Johnson , the tooting of horns,tm trumpets andwitb other uncouth sounds. Soon however, the despatch from Athens was announced, “Rabun gives 400 majority for John son,” and very soon after Appling, Wayne and 1 Ware, as giving 154 gain to Johnson. These operated like wet blankets on Whig hopes, and soon the streets became quiet and almost deserted- - Much depended on the vote of Rabun. The returns fiocn Cass,and Cherokee, and Union,and Jackson, and Madison, had struck a chill of dis appointment to the hearts of the Democracy, which even the magnificent majority of Old Franklin, that ever glorious and immortal ban ner State of Democracy, tailed to remove. It was feared her gallant conduct was insufficient to replace the defections which had marked thi® eventful battle. But when Old Rabun was an nounced as faithful to her time honored flag of Democracy, the most perilous point of the con flict was hapnily past, and victory was certain. There have been many inaccuracies, some tri vial, some important, in the returns. Those of Rabun were afterwards reduced to 270 majority. ! and next to 260 for Johnson. Gilmer has been 200, 550, and 600 for Johnson ; Lumpkin 179 and 386, and other similar cases occurred both as ■ to Whig and Democratic counties. But yesterday the question was reduced down, not to “who is 1 elected Governor,” but “what is Johnson’s ma -1 jority.” A question we are still unable to answer with accuracy. Among the rumors yesterday, was, that the vote cf Franklin would be vitiated for informali ty ; but we considered that as one of the daily rumors set afloat to hoax, to perplex and worry 1 the already fevered public. This game of vitia- ' ting election returns is one that both sides can I play at, and one side would be as likely to lose as ! much as the other. Franklin, we presume, was se- ' lected as the county for the hoax, because the re jection of no other one county could possibly change the election. There need be no fears, however, but that the popular will as already expressed, will be res pected ; nor need there be any, that the State j has secured in the person of her talented son, Herschel V. Johnson, a worthy, discreet and ef ficient Executive. Hon. Mr. Barringer, the U. S. Minister to i Spain, recently had an audience with the Queen, l when he presented his letter of recall, and made quite a flattering address to Her Majesty, who responded in equally complimentary terms, ex pressing her desire to maintain friendly relations with the American government. Gas Works. We understand that the Gas Works are under going some repairs which is the cause of the gas being shut off for the last three nights. It is expected that in a day or two more the repairs will be completed. Gold and Lead in the Alleganies.—The Fairmont Virginian says that an old gentleman arrived in that town, a few days since, with some gold specimens of lead ore, and some spe cimens of what he contended is gold quartzi which he says he obtained from the mountains, but resolutely declines to state where he fonnd the ores he exhibits, and exultingly declares that if the one is gold, he has already enough of it on hand to insure him a thousand dollars at the mint. We learn from a telegraphic dispatch in the Augusta Chronicle 8f Sentinel, dated Montgomery, */llti. } the oth inst, that there were very few ca ses of yellow fever in that city, and'that the panic which existed last week had nearly sub sided. Business, however, was very dull. In our issue yesterday, the above paragraph was inadvertently published with the word Mont gomery omitted. We regret that the error should have occurred, but we believe any intelligent reader would readily perceive that there was something left out, and not construe it to mean that Augusta was afflicted with the pestilence— indeed it is proveibial that Augusta, like our own city, has been favored during the past summer’ arid continues to enjoy an unprecedented state of health— esto perpetua. — Chas. Courier , Bth inst. The Sloo Contract tor the Tehuantepec road, it is said, is complete. The contract was made with Sykes & Co., ot Sheffield, England, to com plete the plank road, from Suchit, to the Coatza coalcos river, to the Pacific, a distance of 76 miles, in one year from the first of December, and a railroad from ocean to ocem, 163 miles, in four years from the first of December. Mules. —The Huntsville Advocate says 7.500 mules have passed through one toll gate in Ken tucky on the road leading to Cumberland Gap, this season, destined for Georgia and South Car olina. The mule crop this year is estimated at 33 per cent, larger than usual. Prices, however, are very high in Kentucky notwithstanding. GEORGIA ELECTION.
