Inaugural Address of Governor Broome, of
Florida.
The new Governor of Florida, the Ho;>James
E. Broome, was inaugurated, as we leariNfrom
the Tallahassee Floridian & Journal, at Talla
hassee on the 3d inst. Previous to the adminis
tration of the oath of office, Governor Broome
delivered an Inaugural Address, in which he ad
vocates the increase of the School Fund of the
State as a measure of State policy, and urges that
such additions should be made to it from time to
time as a due regard for other interests may justi
fy. He is, also, in lavor of cot,summating the
great State enterprise of connecting with bands
of iron its Western, Eastern and Southern sec
tions, and wilt take pleasure in co-operating with
the Legislative Department of the Government
in all proper measures for securing it. In the
election ot General Pierce to the Presidency, he
understands the people to have decided in favor
of the doctrine of Strict Construction, and can
not doubt that the President will firmly and
faithfully enforce their decision, and adds that it
is hardly necessary to say that such an adminis
tration will receive his cordial and hearty sup
port In reference to the removal of the Semi
nole Indians, he speaks as follows:
The removal of the Seminole Indians from our
State is another of those questions of which I
may briefly speak. They are here, a blight to
our prosperity; in violation ot their treaty obli
gations, and in open defiance of the power, au
thority and importunity of the Federal Govern
ment. Their presence prevents the influx of
population, which the salubrity of our climate
and fertility of our soil would invite—depresses
the price and retards the sale of large bodies of
State lands, the proceeds of which are wanted for
purposes of education and internal improve
ments. Their treachery renders insecure the
lives and property of our frontier population—
keeps them in a continual state of anxiety and
alarm—prevents the organization of Schools, and
forbids the employment of capital in useful en
terprises. They occupy a part of our teiritory
which, if opened to settlement, would soon be
come one of our richest and most densely populat
ed sections. Its superior adaptation to the cul
ture of Sugar, Spanish Tobacco, Sisal Hemp,
with a great variety of tropical fruits, would
make it an inviting field for the investment of
capital and the employment of labor. Under
such circumstances, the State can never sanction,
and I hope will never submit to a policy which
looks to anything short of their removal.
With a view to facilitate so desirable an ob
ject, the General Assembly, at its last session,
passed a law entitled “An Act to provide for the
final removal of the Indians of this State, and for
other purt>oses ” This law devolves on the Exe
cutive important trusts, and the conflict of
opinion in reference to his duties under it, may
justify me in saying more on this subject than,
und.*r other circumstances, would perhaps be
proper.
The 16th Section of the 3d article of the Con
stitution of this State, fixes the law making pow
er, and prescribes the manner in whic * laws
shall be passed, and a reference to the Journals
shows that the law under consideration was
passed in the manner prescribed by that section.
The 10th section of the same article of the Con
stitution prescribes, as one ot the duties of the
Executive, that “He shall take care that the laws
be faithfully executed,” and one of the obliga
tions which 1 am about to assume, under the
solemn sanctions of an oath, is to “protect and
detend the Constitution of this State.” I need
hardly sav to you, fellow citizens, that I shall
consider it a part of my constitutional duty to
see that this law is “faithfully executed.”
In connection with this declaration, it is per
haps due to the anxiety prevailing on this sub
ject that I shall speak briefly of the general re
quirements of this law.
First, the Governor is required to raise one
brigade of volunteers, commission the officers,
and tender the brigade to the Federal Govern
ment for the removal of the Indians. These
duties are purely executory, and will be promptly
discharged. Second, should the General Gov
ernment decline to accept the services of the
brigade, the Governor is required to secure the
frontier settlers, and employ the Brigade in car
rying out the provisions of the law in that part
of the Peninsula now occupied by the Indians,
and is authorized, under certain restrictions, to
borrow money on the faith of the State, for their
subsistence, transportation, pay, &c. These lat
ter duties, however, the law requires to be dis
charged under the proviso contained in the
eleventh section of the act, which is in these
words: Provided, That the Governor shall not
commence actual operations within the Indian
boundary until the 4th of May next, and not
until he is satisfied that the General Government
has determined not to remove said Indians by
force or otherwise: Provided, further, That if
actual hostilities 6hall be commenced by the In
dians before that time, the foregoing proviso shall
be of no force or effect.”
Thus it is seen that there are two contingen
cies, and only two, upon the happening of either
of which the Executive is authorized to order
the Brigade into actual service. One of these is
that the Indians shall commence actual hostilities,
and the other is that he shall be satisfied that
the General Government has determined not to re
move said Indians by force or otherwise. To decide
whether the General Government has so deter
mined, may prove one of the most delicate and
difficult of all the duties imposed by the law ; but
it is a duty, and I pledge myself to discharge it
to the best of my ability. In doing so, I may
commit errors of judgment, but none, I hope,
which will compromise the interests or dignity
of our commonwealth. °
Governor Broome concluded his address by
stating that the powers with which the Execu
tive Office would invest him were derived from
the Constitution, and should neither be enlarged
by assumptions of those reserved by the people
or by encroachments on those delegated to the
other departments of the Government, and said :
My purpose shall be honestly to administer
the Executive Department, with a view to the
best interests of the State, and of the whole State.
That a defective judgment will often lead me
into error, I have too much reason to fear ; but
conscious of the rectitude of my purpose, I may
ask your indulgence for my errors, for they will
never be intentional. And now, witn an hum
ble reliance, (as I hope.) upon the Supreme Ru
ler of the Universe, tor that wisdom which will
enable me to discharge rny duty in such a man
ner as to promote your interest and His glory, I
am ready to take the oath of office.
The oath of office was administered by the
Hon. Leslie A. Thompson, one of the Associate
Justices of the Supreme Court, in the words fol
lowing:
“I, James E. Broome, do swear that I am duly
qualified, according to the Constitution of this
State, to exercise the office to which I have been
elected, and will, to the best of my abilities, dis
charge the duties thereof, and preserve, protect
and defend the Constitution of this State, and of
the United States, so help me God.”
Col. Henry P. Jones, we are informed by a
correspondent, died at one ol his plantations in
Laurens county, on Sunday morning last, of in
flammation of the bowels, aged 65 years. He
was born and reared in Burke county, and was
one of her oldest and most respectable citizens.
His father was a sterling Whig of the Revolu
tion, and battled manfully tor the liberties of his
country. Col. Jones was one of the wealthiest
men in Georgia, a great amount of which he
accumulatod by his indomitable personal ener
gy. He was bland and modest in his manners
and in his heart benevolent and kind. He leaves
his large estate to six children.— Sav. Republi

A Third Set of Teeth. — Humphrey Powell,
aged 75 years, residing west of the great Pee
Dee. in this District, has a new set of tront teeth
both in the upper and lower jaws, in every place
where the old ones had rotted out, or been ex
tracted. Thirty-two years ago he states he lost
some of his teeth, and others at intervals since
that time. The number of new teeth which be
has cut is seven, being the number of front teeth
which he had lost; two of these, however, are
small as yet, having made their appearance only
a few weeks ago. The old man is strong,
vigorous, and looks as if he might Jive a good
while yet. — Marion Star.
Fall Fashions. ,
It is a prevailing custom now for our modistes
and directors of the fashion to set aside particu*
far days once or twice in the year, for a general
exhibition of the fashions that are to prevail dur
lDgthe season. Last week gave us a fair sam
p e of autumn weather, and of course it was a
usy time among the fashionables up town.
cLune & Haskell, whose establishment em
races every article known to fashionable life,
and whose facilities for attaining and adopting
the most approved Parisian modes are unequaled,
opened their establishment, during several suc
cessive days, giving a day to each department.
Thus we have had an opportunity of examining
the most approved fashions without more trou
ble than is necessary to walk from one room or
counter to another. On the day given to bon
nets a most beautiful assortment was on exhibi
tion, and more than three hundred of the most
exquisite bonnets that a combination of perfect
taste and rich materials can produce, were sold
in ten hours.
The Dressmaking Department was equally
crowded. We saw whole wardrobes finished
and ready to be sent to their respective destina
tions The fashions for street and evening dres
ses vary but little from those of the early spring.
Pagoda sleeves, the most graceful things ever in
vented, still continue in favor, the attempt to in
troduce bishop and other sleeves gathering on a
wristband having quite failed of attaining
fashionable approbation. Basquines are still
worn, and open bodices, sometimes laced over
the chemisette with bands of velvet or quilled
ribbon, still prevail. Indeed, the principal
changes lie in the trimmings rather than the
geneial form. In that we saw some beautiful
efforts of taste, almost every dress presented
some original varity of trimming, velvet rib
bons, quipure laces, quilled satins, or all these at
times mingled and relieving each other, giving
that endless variety which prevents any two la
dies dressing alike, and yet imparts that prevail
ing air of the same style throughout, which we
call fashion.
A street dress of purple silk was much admir
ed. The skirt was trimmed with five flounces,
each edged with an embroidery of polka spots in
in black. It had a jacket corsage with lappets
falling back from the bust, and a basquine edged
with spots like the flounces. The sleeves are
composed of five falling frills edged like the bas
quine and flounces.
Brocades and moir antique are but lightly trim
med, the richness of the material rendering
much ornament, not only superfluous but in bad
taste.
A dress of black moir trimmed with homiton
lace edging and embroidery, where black bugles
were prettily introduced, running down the
basque and around the sleeves, was greatly ad
mired. The skirt was long and sweeping, but
the broad rich waves watered over it would have
been broken, and their effect destroyed by any
attempt of trimming, therefore none was attemp
ted.
Chrildren’s Clothing. —Nothing can exceed the
costliness and labor lavished upon children’s
clothing this year. Saques and trowsers for lit
tle boys, are completely laden down with em
broidery. There is in McCone and Haskell’s
case, in the Crystal Palace, a dress that a flower
painter might look upon with admiration. The
saque is of ruby velvet, embroidered with a
border of flowers in their natural tints—fuschias,
with their purple urns, depening as if in the
sun forget-me-nots, small and delicate, as we
find them on the river side ; clusters of climatis
blossoms, and that delicate leafy spray, which it
would seem nothing but a fairy’s needle could
imitate, are blended and wreathed in the border
so like the real flowers, that one half fancies
they must ripen and droop as the originals do.
The white cashmere, embroidered down the
sides and around the bottom in white silk; they
are left open a little on one side of the instep,
where the embroideries meet, and altogether are
chaste and beautiful, as the saque is superb. We
select the dress for description, from a bewilder
ing variety of the most unique and beautiful
things ever invented to make the loveliness of
children more lonely still, because the needle
work is a miracle es art, and the whole dress is
really the most perfect thing of the kind that we
have ever seen.
For Little Girls, the dresses are also superb.
We remember one of white cashmere, with a
border of the most delicate palm leaf trimming,
aud a broad sash plaided by the same colors on a
white ground. Lappetts. falling off the should
er, give that cherub-like breadth across the
chest, which we all love to see in a little girl.
The under sleeves, pantaletts and chemisettes
worn with this dress are of embroidered cam
bric. Another little girl’s dress, with more
warmth of color, was a cashmere of that rich
tint which we find in the heart ot a cactus blos
som—red, with a bluish glow. This was made
in three flounces, each flounce edged, two inches
deep, with a wreath of roses woven in the cloth ;
a pretty jacket rounded off in front, and edged
like the flounces, composed the dress. Halt a
dozen of these dresses were sold while we were
looking on.
Ball dresses are cut low in the neck, with very
narrow sleeves. Instead of falling square across
the bust, the lace berthe diminishes gradually in
width to the waist. This admits of a rich
trimming upon the front, and take a stomacher
form more graceful than the fashion that preceded
it.
Sleeves and chemisettes of the most costly
honiton lace are now worn with every kind of
dress that admits of them.
There can be no excess in the embroideries
used, for the most fashionable are such as leave
the original fabric doubtful, so completely is it
covered with needlework.
Infants' 1 Dresses are enriched more than ever
with embroidery. We saw robes upon McCune
& Haskell’s counter, worked a foot deep in the
skirt, and with the front breadth covered with
the most elaborate patterns.
Infants' Cloaks. —The cloaks of white merino,
that go with these dresses, are almost invariably
enriched with borders embroidered in white
roses or more intricate designs.
Among the ladies’ cloaks, which are more su
perb this year, and more varied in style than has
ever been known before, were some unique op«ra
cloaks of white cashimere lined with pink silk
and edged with heavy white fringe nettled upon
the cloak four or five inches deep. The pale
glow of the pink lining through the fringe and
tassels about the hood had an effect delicate as
the blush in a white rose. Another of white
satin faced with a trimming of white velvet,
one stripe cut, the other uncut, laid on the gar
ment diagonally, was beautiful for for a bridal
garment. Another of corn-colored silk, lined
a »T d -rt rin T 7 ed witkl wtute i was greatly admired.—

Pensacola and Georgia Road.
Subscriptions to stock in this road are gradu
ally progressing in this county. On Monday
last $60,000 were taken, making the subscrip
tion thus far, with scarcely no effort, nearly
SIOO,OOO in Leon. Ihe recent movement by
parties interested in the Brunswick Road, to
bring about a compromise and union between
that road and the Florida, Albany and Savan
nah Comf>any, makes it of the first importance
that active efforts be at once made to secure the
SBOO,OOO pledged by our Convention. We call
upon the people of Middle Florida to arouse
themselves.
###*###
We are pleased to be able to say that some of
those who have heretofore regarded the whole
movement in Middle Florida with coldness,
have put their names down among the list of
subscribers. Thus opposing views seem to be
harmonizing—circumstances which augurs ul
timate success.
P. S. —The Eight Hundred Thousand Ta
ken !—Since writing the above, we learn that
individuals in this county have subscribed the
whole amount pledged by the Convention, to
wit: SBOO,OOO. The subscribers are all citizens
of Leon, and well able to meet their subscriptions.
It is expected that by the first day of January
next at least two hundred hands will be placed
on the road.
gjThe stock was taken this morning. This
movement will not cut off the other counties in
the Middle from the opportunity of sharing in
the cost of the work, but they are still expected
to subscribe liberally, as we are confident they
will promptly do.
We make this announcement with the most
unalloyed satisfaction, feeling assured that an
impetus is now given to the work that must re
sult in its success.
From the foregoing announcement, which we
find in the Tallahassee Journal, of last Saturday,
it would seem that our Middle Florida friends
have gone to work, at last, in dead earnest.
SBOO,OOO in a single county looks as though the
people of Leon are getting tired of living out of
the world. Well we don’t wonder that they
should be. The wealth oi Gadsden, Jefferson,
Madison and Hamilton can very easily add
$500,000 to this amount. But subscriptions are
not all. The Floridian tells us that at least two
hundred hands are to be placed upon the road by
the first day ot next January. Good again.
That is the true spirit. In building Railroads
we never for the life of us could see the wisdom
of the stand still policy. When the money is
subscribed and stockholders stand ready to pay
in their instalments as called for, why not call
for them, and go to work. And the work once
commenced —on with it until the cars commence
running, and the profits begin to accumulate for
division.
As for the Savannah end of the line we hope
we shall not have to wait until the first of Jan
uary before we can announce that the work—
not of surveying nor of locating—but of grading
has commenced upon it. What say you Mes*rs.

Rabun Gap Railroad.
The Engineers of this road have arrived in
our city and are now engaged in prosecuting the
survey of the route to the North Carolina State
line, on the completion of which the company
design commencing the work of grading on the
Tennessee section of the road.
The contractors, Bangs & Co., have already
advertised for 3000 laborers, for another part of
the work, and every movement of that enter
prising company tends to justify and establish
that feeling of confidence in their energy and
ability, with which the public mind has been
inspired, and every assurance is felt that the en
tire road will be completed as early as is consis
tent with the magnitude of the work.
The Rabun Gap Road will be of incalculable
advantage both to East Tennessee and Charles
ton. It embraces within the scope of its trans
porting facilities, a section of country whose ag
ricultural capabilities are immense, containing a
producing and consuming population already
large, but which, under the stimulus of transpor
tation advantages, will be doubled or quadrupled
in a very few years. But the minerals of East
Tennessee, constitute the chief element ot its
wealth. Its mineral opulence is known even
beyond the Atlantic, and Europeanjcapitalists
. have already embarked in Copper and Lead mi
ning among us. Some of the richest and most
extensive beds of Copper, not to mention Lead,
Iron. Coal, Marble, &c., will be commanded by
the Rabun Gap Road. Mining operations in
East Tennessee are in their merest infancy.
Perhaps no section on the Globe of equal extent,
I possesses more undeveloped wealth than East
Tennessee. Its coal and iron are literally inex
haustable, its copper is reported to be equally 60,
! its Lead is abundant, its Marble is adjudged to
| be the finest in the world, and its numerous
quarries are full of it, and altogether our valleys
and mountains are “ rich beyond compare.”
’ We hail the anticipated construction of the Ra
bun Gap road as the key to the rich and varied
treasures of East Tennessee.— Knoxville States

1 To Merchants and Shippers over the
Western and Atlantic Railroad :
Chattanooga, Sept. 13th, 1853.
A short time since, Gen. W. N. Bishop, Agent
of Western and Atlantic Railroad at this place,
called upon Sample & Co., and stated to them
that he had it in his power to withdraw the
Receiving and Forwarding Business from the
Commission Merchants altogether, and could do
the same at the expense ot the Western and At
lantic Railroad, except a charge of three cents
per 100 los forDrayage. He also, further stated
that he would still allow the business to be done
by the following houses, viz: J. F. Brooke &
Co., S. R. McCamy, and Grenville & Sample,
provided, they would agree not to ship any Goods
upon what are known as the “Daily Line of
Packets,” consisting of the Alabamian, Chatta
nooga, Molly Garth, Fanny Malone, Atlanta a d
Union ,• also that they, the aforesaid Commis
sion Merchants, would further agree to ship only
on the steamer Loudon, (of w hich Gen. Bishop
is half owner) and two other Boats which he
named. Not having any interest whatever, di
rectly or indirectly in any or either of the Boats
above mentioned, Samples could not consistent
ly with their sense of duty to their patrons, con
sent to withhold Goods from a large majority of
the Boats in the river and ship only upon such
irregular and transeient Boats as Gen. Bishop
had an interest in, or as his partialities or preju
dices might dictate. They therefore declined his
proposition, feeling that they could not, as hono
rable men, connive at such a palpable fraud upon
their patrons and the public. In accordance
with what seems to have been the determina
tion ot of Gen. Bishop, piedicted upon a refusal
to comply with his proposition, we are credibly
informed that a messenger was despatched to
Loudon to bring down the steamer Loudon to
Chattanooga; and notwithstanding our solemn
protest against the illegal proceeding, he refused
to deliver to us the goods marked to our care and
address; but in utter contempt of law, caused
the same to be drayed from the deport to ihe
steamer Loudon, to be shipped to what he sup
posed to be their point of destination. We will
further state, that we are informed and believe,
that a portion of said Goods were detained on
the cars after their arrival in Chattanooga, until
a messenger could go to Loudon and direct the
steamer Loudon to come down to Chattanooga.
The steamer Fanny Malone, Capt. C. C. Sp.ller,
was in port during the whole day (Tuesday)
and, under the existing circumstances, agreed to
take all of the freight then offering for the no
minal sum of 10 cents per 100, in order that the
owners of such freight might have an opportuni
ty of taking the matter into their own hands,
and that no interest except the personal gain of
the Railroad Agent might be urged in palliation
of this high handed outrage.

Stock Farms.
The upper portions of our District seem to
have been intended by nature for stock growing
purposes. The extensive ranges, thickly set
with indigenous grasses and wild pea vine, upon
which cattle thrive better than on domestic
grains, certainly were intended for some use in
nature’s economic plans; and we have always
looked forward to the time when these hereto
fore undeveloped resources would be appropria
ted, as the dawning of a new era in her history;
and in conjunction with the great internal im
provements now in progress, and the establish
ment of manufactories destined to place her
arnong the first in the State. It is, therefore
with no ordinary degree of gratification we com
mence to note these changes in her borders.
All know that the Blue Ridge Road is a fixed
fact; and we are sure the following will go far to
show that stock-growing is fast becoming a sta
ple of our weath. The|Hon. R. F. Simpson,
Capt. John Maxwell, Col. John D. Williams
and Wm. Griffin have purchased the Bone Camp
place, on Chauga, with a view of converting it
into an extensive stock farm, and giving special
attention to the rearing of sheep. The scientific
knowledge of some of these gentlemen especial
ly our ex-Congressman, places success beyond a
doubt.
Capt. Wagner, of the German Company, we
are informed, is at present engaged in importing
a number of Electoral sheep, and a regularly
trained shepherd from Europe. The known
superiority of this breed to any in the world,
makes them peculiarly valuable, and there is no
telling the change they will make in crossing
I upon our own domestic stock. He deserves
great credit for his enterprise, and, we are confi
dent, will in luture reap a rich reward by his
speculation.
Maj. W. S. Grishman proposes devoting much
of his time and capital to the growing of stock
on his new mountain farm; and, if he raises as
fine mules and other stock on his new place as
he did at West Union, we are sure it will not be
long before we shall have the pleasure of noting
him again.
Col. Wm. Sloan owns a large stock farm, over
the line it is true, but in the same region; and
we were pleased to see Maj. J. N. Wtutner, Jr. j
passing through our village last week op his
way to these monntains, where the Judge has
purchased an excellent farm, and already has a
nunr ber of mules and horses; and will, we have
no doubt, soon have some of his fine Durham
cattle. He, too, we are confident, will give the
sheep a trial.
There are many others starting in the same j
direction, and we venture the prediction that in
less than ten years all of these extensive tracts
of unappropriated lands will be brought into re
quisition for these purposes. We shall in luture
numbers give a few extracts from writers on
the nature of rearing sheep, and an article on the
water power of our District, and the facilities
for manufacturing purposes.— Pickens Courier.

the Proprietor offers the Daily at $6,00, and the
Iri-weekly at $4,00 to all new subscribers, and
to all the present subscribers who pay up ar

The increased facilities by mail tor Daily and

The importance of Augusta as a leading com

The value of a commercial, political, and news

Theatre. —Mr. and Mrs. Crisp, and Mr. Bux
ton and Mr. Fuller make their appearance again
this evening
The Fair.
On Monday next Messrs. Clark & Co., on the
corner of Broad and Mclntosh streets, will have
on exhibition at their jewelry store, the different
premiums to be awarded at the State Fair to be
held in this city They will also have on exhi
bition the different premiums, in the shape of
silver pitchers, given by our warehousemen. The
latter we have seen. They are of massive silver
and beautifully wrought, and will not only be
highly appreciated by the fortunate comptitors
but are highly creditable to the donors.
While on the subject of the Fair, we will men
tion several articles manufactured in this city
and intended tor exhibition, which will no
doubt carry off premiums.
Harness— From the manufactory of Mr.
Albert Hatch. The specimens consist of a double
and single harness, gold and silver mounted, and
quill stitched. The workmanship is beautiful,
and the prominent portions of it being stitched
with porcupine quills, gives it a lasting quality
and continued brightness while the leather lasts.
Ihe great advantage of quill stitching is, that
when it gets soiled, it can be washed and then
it looks as well as when new. The hames, bitts
and trace buckles are heavily silver plated on
steel, which gives them greater strength—the
small buckles are covered with leather, and the
straps passing through them work on rollers,
which prevents wear. Some of the quill stitch
ing, which is really beautiful, was done by one
ol -Mr. Hatch’s apprentices. This hames, was
inteuded for the world’s fair, but was not com
pleted in time. It will do credit to any work
shop in the Union, and we feel proud of' it as a
product of our city. The sett is valued at SIOOO.
Guns. —From the manufactory of E. H. Ro
gers. First, a Double Barrelled Shot Gun—bar
rels of laminated steel—mounting of very heavy
sterling silver. The stock is of curled walnut,
highly finished and engraved, and will compare
favorably with the best London makers. Ma
hogany case and implements complete. This
gun is valued at $250.
Secon l. A Rifle—Cast steel barrel, telescopic
globe and plain sights, with a shot barrel at
tached to same stock, which can be put on or off
at pleasure. This Rifle is silver mounted, and
the stock is of black walnut, finely finished. It
is put up in a mahogany case with all necessary
implements. Valued at $l6O.
I hird. Another Rifle, with cast steel barrel
and Clark’s patent loading muzzle. The barrel
is fluted and the stock is made of the finest curled
walnut—mounting, heavy silver. This Rifle i«

cessary implements. Valued at $l5O.
Ihe Guns noticed above we have seen, and
for neatness of workmanship and finish, we do
not think their superiors can be found in the
country.
There are a number of other articles prepared
for the Fair, manufactured in this city, which we
will take another opportonity to notice.
The Campbell Minstrels are Coming, again.
Our numerous readers will be gratified to learn
that this popular troupe of Negro Melodists will
pay our city another visit. Their indefatigable
agent, F. C. Cross, called at our office yesterday
and informed us that he had succeeded in enga
ging the Ball Room of the Augusta Hotel, where
the Campbell’s will hold forth. We do not
know that they could have selected,a better lo
cation. The Hall will comfortably accommodate
five hundred persons, and is centrally located.
are gratified to learn that these favorite
Minstrels met with a warm reception in Charles
ton and Savannah, and we feel assured they
will meet with another in this city on their re
turn. They open on Monday night.
Beware of Counterfeits.
We understand that one dollar bills of the
Mechanic’s Bank, and of the Bank of Augusta,
raised to five, are in circulation in the interior of [
this State. They are poorly executed and easily j
detected by any one in the habit of handling j
bank bills, and we publish this notice to put
those who are not,on their guard. Keep a look 1
out for the circulators of these bills.
Choioe Family Flour.
Messrs Fleming & jVI ill er will receive our
thanks tor a small bag of Family Flour sent us j
I yesterday. It had no brand on it to designate
the mill at which it was ground, but we have '
given it a trial and find it good. They keep it j
for bags by the dollars worth or 100 lbs. ;
The Chincha Island Outrage. —lt is stated
that reparation will be demanded for the outrage
| at the Chincha Islands, and advantage taken of
| the departure of Hon. Samuel Medary and his
suite lor Chili to send despatches to Mr.
instructing him to push the demand with vigor.
Another Competitor.
From present appearances there will be quite
a number of competitors for the premiums of*
sered by tne Agricultural Society and our Ware
housemen for the best five bales of Cotton. We
were show n yesterday another sample from the <
plantation of Mr. H. P. Hampton, of Columbia 1
county, w’hich is of good staple, color, and well
ginned. From the samples so far exhibited to
us we would 6ay, taken as a lot, it would bring
a fancy price.
The Cotton Crop.
Florida.— We have been politely furnished
(says the Charleston Mercury) with the follow
ing extract from a letter of a highly respectable
Physician in Alachua county, to a gentleman in
this City :
l ' During the last few weeks my practice has
been quite extensive, and I have been in every
direction around this place, and I have on every
occasion inquired of those who made Cotton,
what they supposed their loss would be by the
recent rainy weather. Some few have put
their loss at one-half, and some few again at one
fourth ; but the large majority of planters seem
to concur in the opinion that the loss is fully
one-third. My impression is, that an average
crop, or one equal to that of last year, will not be
made in this section of the country.”
Hog Crop of Ohio.— On the Ist of October,
about one-half of the counties of Ohio had fur
nished the Auditor of State’s Office their annual
statement of personal property listed for taxa
tion in 1853. The number of hogs in 44 coun
ties is set down at 1,315,498, against 696,031
last year. It is, however, doubted, if the real in
crease is as as large as the returns make it ap
pear, in consequence of the repeal of the S2OO
exemption law.
The New York Tribune, basing its calcula
tion upon the railroad statistics furnished by the
London Statistical Society, and which give
among other things the average number of miles
traversed to one passenger killed, come 3 to the
conclusion that if a railroad should be built to
the sun, every passenger would, by the laws of
chances, be killed before reaching his fiery des
tination. At the ordinary rate and speed, it
would take 514 years to reach the sun : but 228
years of continuous railroad travelling brings the
passenger up, and this would only carry him a
little more than half way to the sun. In Ger
many, however, the statistics are more favora
ble to human life, for “ during the years 1848,
1549, 1850,0 n a length of railway open of 8480
English miles, the number of passengers con
veyed was 51,713,297, the miles travelled 1,155,-
436,890, only one passenger had been killed.”
It will be altogether best, therefore, that when
the railroad is to be built to the sun, it shall be
under German management.
Protestant Chinamen. —The Nevada (Cali
fornia) Journal mentions it as a curious fact that
many of the Chinamen in that region are Protes
tants, who take oath on the Bible in courts of
justice, and say they were converted in China
by the labors of a missionary, whom they name
with much love. They are peaceable and in
dustrious, and give practical evidence that “their
faith is illustrated by works.”
The La Farge hotel has been leased by Mr.
Lanier, formerly of Macon, Ga., for about $45,-
000 a year. It will be ready for the reception
of guests on the Ist of December.
House Telegraph Line . —This company has
now fully established itself with wires leading
to New York, Philadelphia, and Washington,
worked by the House Printing instrument, and
have obtained an excellent character for accura
cy, reliability and despatch.
Alledgkd 111-treatment of an American
Captain. —The San Francisco Herald publishes
a letter from Captain Give, of the American
schooner B. F. Allen, dated Acapulco, August
24, giving account of the ill-treatment which
he and his crew had received from the Mexican
authorities at that place. On various frivolous
pretexts, his vessel was taken from his posses
sion by an armed force, and he and the crew
beaten and abused, and finally imprisoned.—
S~The authorities, at the dath of the letter, still
had possession of the vessel, and it was thought
would confiscate her. The American Consul
and the Captain were about to join in a protest
against the conduct of the authorities.
The Methodist Church Suit.— The New
York Book Agents oi the Methodist Episcopal
Church have agreed with the Church South on
a plan for the adjustment of the whole matter in
dispute, which is, that it shall be referred to the
Hon. Judge McLean, of the Supreme Court of
the United States. Both parties have done well,
to leave it to the arbitration of such a man as
Judge McLean. The Judge is expected in New
York in a few days, to meet the commissioners
of the two branches of the M. E. Church.
The Pacific Railroad.— A San Francisco
letter in the N. Y. Tribune says :
Meetings are to be held weekly of our citizens
on the subject of the Pacific Railway. We shall
furnish a map ot statistics in regard to the com
merce of the Pacific that will astonish all Eastern
people. A company will be organised and rea
dy to build the road lrom San Francisco to the
State Line. California will be no laggard in
this matter. The road must be built and that
without delay.
Cood Institution.— There is a “Six Penny
Savings Bank” in New York, for the benefit of
children and others, which has been in operation
only a short time. The deposits already amount
to SIO,OOO : one of the first of which was by a
barefooted boy, who in a single day put in 31
cents, beginning with 5 cents, to keep them from
his parents, who took his earnings to buy liquor.
It strikes us this institution is worth looking
after with a view to imitation.— Phrenological
Journal .
The Right of Way. — The following deci
sion embraces a principle of some interest to our
readers:
At one of the city courts in Cincinnati, a
few days since, a driver was fined $25 sot run
ning his wagon against a pedestrian who tvas
crossing the street. The Judge decided that at
all regular street crossings pedestrians had the
right of way, and that the law requires a driver
to hold up when he sees a foot passenger cro s
ing in front of his taein. The same principle of
law holds good elsewhere, and is worthy the
notice of both drivers and pedestiians.
