N§Rr BY MRS. SIGOURNEY.
Weep for the smitten bud that falls
Jg Untimely from its stem,
And never in fond affection’s eys
Must glass in glowing gem,
Nor in its fragrant bosom know
The joy that noontide 3uns bestow.
Weep for the reprobate who steals
A Dishonored to the dust.
Life's highest purpose unachieved,
And mocked its Holiest trust;
—weep for him who stained the scroll,
the Giver of his soul.
But as for him whose mortal span
Completes its perfect round,
His gifts well used, bis length of days
With every virtue crowned;
No tears for him—he gains the bliss
Os more exalted spheres than his.
The statesman who for his country’s cause
Marred not with selfish aid,
But ever to her hour of need
Witn patriot ardor came ;
W rite his pure deeds, for future years,
In glory, all undimmed by tears.
iSi No tears, ssve what the heart of love
£8 O’er its own loss must weep ;
Yield ye his fame to History’s hand
Por unborn time to keep ;
Lift high the page, that, earth shall see
That Heaven can give and Man may be.

THE INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT IN MICHIGAN.
The result of the recent iiidepei.de t political
movement in Michigan does not prove entirety
satisfactory. We notice that the Detroit Adver
tiser refuses absolutely to yield its support to the
ticket. We suppose from the ore ot the whig
press in that State, prior to the holding ot the
independent convention, that the movement met
the cordial approval cf all paities and interests in
that State opposed to the Nebraska swindle.
Although it is with extreme reluctance that we
yield the whig organization lor any other, lor
political action, yet we could see in the State of
Michigan a good and sufficient reason tor the
whigs engaging in an effort of alliance with other
parties, to redeem the State from its present
thraldom. The whig party in Michigan was in
a hopeless minority, and had beeu rendered so to
some extent by a departure from the creed and
policy which lay in the path of popular senti
ment. There is a strong free sentiment in that
State, which, if it had been propeily regarded by
the national admin stration of 1850, would have
brought the whig party to a permanent ascen
dency. But that was not done, and the party
was weakened, distracted and disheartened, and
since that time has not been able to make a suc
cessful rally against the enemy.
To every true whig it was desirable that the
present party in power (Demociatic party) in
t' that State should be routed. The only way to
effect that object was to incite a movement that
would lay hold on the popular sentiment. The
incipient steps were taken to effect the object,and
bo far as we could judge from indications, with a
feeling of entire harmony on the part of the
whigs.
From the Detroit Daily Advertiser.
The Mass Convention held at Jackson, in this
State on the 6th inst., for the purpose of bringing
about a union of all the opposers of the repeal ot
the Missouri compromise, seems to have resulted
l not only in the substantial triumph of free soil
principles, but in the creation ol a new party or
ganization, which is in fact but a reproduction of
the free soil party under a new name.
We are much mistaken if the great body of
true whigs who signed the call for this conven
tion do not already realize that they have been
grossly deceived, and deeply regret their agency
in enlisting the whig sentiment of the State in a
movement which must ePher merge the whig
party of Michigan into abolitionism,or introduce
into it elements of distraction which will in the
end prove ruinous. Weaie informed by a gen
v-tlenian present at the convention that it was
completely in the hands of the free soil leaders;
that they entirely controlled its nominations, and
that the great mass ot intelligent whigs who
went there willing, in the present crisis, to lay
aside for a time party distinctions, for the pur
pose of wresting the State from the hands of the
present administration, and exerting their in
fluence for the repeal of the obnoxious clauses of
the Nebraska bill, we r e surprised and indignant
to find themselves suddenly metamorphosed into
free soilers, however amused they may have been
at the quite unnecessary baptismal ceremony
which took place on the occasion.
From the Detroit Correspondence of the N. Y. Post.
The new organization is called tne republican
party, as it stands more nearly upon the old Jel
fersonian platform than any other party now ex
isting. All parties joined in this convention.
Hundreds of democrats, who had never acted
with the free-soil party, were here and joined in
the proceedings, aud there is but little doubt the
whole whig party will come into it. The De
troit Advertiser (silver gray) will not, perhaps,
support the ticket, but will not oppose it. The
proprietor, George Wales, was once a democrat
and then a free-soiler, (a member of the Buffalo
convention.) and finally turns up a silver gray.
He admits, however, that not a corporal’s guard
of the whig party coincides with him.
There is Title doubt but that this trcket will
sweep the State by several thousand majority
that a reform legislature, a republican senator,
and, we think, three members ol Congress, will
be elected in the State. It is hardly probable
that any/attempts will be made to defeat Ste
vens, who voted against Nebraska.
Frorrrthe Albany Journal, [Seward whig.) July 13
Having found the whig party of the North, on
all occasions, and in every emergency, the most
efficient and reliable organization, both to resist
the aggressions of slavery and to uphold the cause
of freedom, we concur cordially with the Courier,
that it is best, now and ever, "for the whig party
to stand by its colors.”
There are. however, occasions and questions
which warm other agencies into ac ion. The
wanton and wicked Nebraska swindle stns the
indignation of thousands who aie not oidmanly
active as partisans, but whose sen turn nta and
sympathies prompted the Saratoga movement.
Itconttmpi tes, we undentand, a gathering or
* freemen, irrespective ol party, to give emb di
ment to expressions ot dissent to this shaa.eiul
violation ot compacts anu compromises w hicb
secured a potion ol the territoi v purcnased lrom

the election to Congress of representatives who
Will labor fea/lessiy to repeal that swindling
statute. The assembling ot an enlightened, pa
. triotic convention, with such views, cannot tail
to exert a salutary influence.
But that convention can in no manner or sense
interfere with the duties or lessen the response
bifities of the whig party. The cause of freedom
may be essentially aided by auxiliary efforts. By
combining the suffrages of ail who deplore the
Nebraska outrage, aud almost unbroken vote in
tne next House of Representatives might be se
cured. This surely is an object worth aiming at.
From the Albany State Register.
Believing as we do in the wisdom and patriot
ism ot the whig creed, the soundness of whig !
pricciples and the vaiue ot the whig party, we
Bp are entirely opposed to seeing it disbanded. It |
bolds the reins of power in the State; it has the
Legislature and the State officeis, and will con- j
tinue to have them with the executive depait- !
ment for years to come, unless it casts them away j
by itsown madness and lolly. Tne whigs, if
they will but remain true to themseives will car- ;
the Union in 1856.
But there is great wickedness in this sectional !
organization; for when it shall be accomplice
when the North and the South shall stand in dis
tinct bodies over against each other, divided by j
geographical lines, the Union will be practically
dissolved. Tnis sectional division, embodying j
sectional prejudices, and rousing sectional am- ’
mcwities, is what the great Washington saw as
the chief danger to the future of this country,
r- .. with prop be it earnestness and solemnity be j
warned his countrymen against it. Will ansi
abandonment by tbe whig parry of its principUs
gnd its organization add one vote in Congress in
the State of New York against the extension of
human slavery? Can one man be elected to
Congress from this State, now or hereafter, by
any party whose opinions are doubtful on that
question? We suppose not. It the rallying cry
of the new organization is to repeal, what by
any possibility can it accomplish? Before such
a measure can be perfected the territories will
have settled the question themselves by coming
into the Union as States.
[From Gleason’s Pictorial of July StA.J
Portrait of Miss Eliza Logan.
Wep resent to our readers this week a portrait
of Miss F.iiza Logan, the actress, from a daguer
reotype by Whipple. To very many her name
is already as familiar as a household word • tor
during the past two years, she has played bril
liant engagements throughout the leading cities
ot the Union. But there may be o hers, who
possessing that laudable curiosity which is char
acteristic of our countrymen, might desire some
brief account ot this most estimable lady. Miss
Eliza Logan was born in the city of Philadel
phia, in August, 1830. Her father, Mr. C. A.
Logan, is well known as an author, manager and
actor; and fir twenty five years sustained his po
sition as comedian, with credit. The value ot a
good education was duly appreciated by Mr. Lo
gan and his wife, and their children received
that careful culture which the best schools afford.
Miss Logan was educated at Lancaster, Pennsyl
vania; and exhibiting decided predilections for
the stage, her parents permitted her to make her
first appearance as Young Normal at the Chestnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, which effort was
crowned with entire success. From this place,
she visited Cincinnati, where she performed some
time, serving her termot probation in the ranks,
before aspiring to command; and it is evident
that to her father she is much indebted for many
acquisitions, which greater experience than she
has enjoyed, could alone procure. Her populari
ty has increased trom the day she first assumed
the position of a star, and her recent engagements
in Boston, Nashvilie, Memphis. Savannah and
other places have gained lor her not only exten
ded fame, but have produced on the part of man
agers a desire tor frequent visits trom one ot the
most profitable Amencan actresses. The Boston
Evening Gazette, speaking of this lady, recently
remarked: “ Were we to describe Miss Logan
to one who had never seen her, we do not think
that we could convey a better idea of her abili
ty, than by styling her a wholesome actress; one
whom you do not witness with tear and trem
bling lest she break down, but who creates a
sympathy by the physical power she possesses
to deliver, with pathos and force, those lengths
which so often tax others of less nerve.” To
this we would add that, correct in her readings,
and intense in her delivery of impassioned pas
sages, Miss Logan never (ails to approach a point
with decision, though by her originality she
sometimes disappoints those who have seen the
representatives of Evadne, Pauline, Julia, etc.,
and are prepared for conventional climaxes,
which she avoids, preferring to step aside from
the beaten path, and leave to impulse what oth
ers owe to art. In short, we think the great
beauty of hur performance is the wonderful ac
curacy in the detail of the character she repre
sents; the accuracy with which she modulates
the emphasis of every word; her natural, easy
gesticulation; the expression of her look, the
truthfulness of her conception, and finally the
happy and perfect manner ot its execution. In
the private walks of lite, Miss Logan sustains a
reputation sur ’assed by none. Tbe death of her
father left to her charge the support of a mother
and a family of younger sisters. How nobly
she has toiled, it would not become us to state.
Her career thus far has been onward ; and with
the blessing of health, there is no limit to the
height in the dramatic world to which she may
yet attain.
Taking Things Easy. —A Philosophical
Woman.— As an exhibition of the right kind of
people tor this world, we give place to the fol
lowing letter of a woman to her husband in
California. It is bad enough for a woman to be
left “ to her own resources,” without being visit
ed with other misfortunes in addition She ap
pears to taue things easy—as she should.
“My Dear Husband ; As its some time since
you left us tor California, I suppose you would
beglOto hear how we are getting along in
your absence lam happy to say we are all
enjoying very good health on the whole. Just
at present, two of the boys have got the small
pox, Amanda Jane has got the typhus fever,
Betsy is down with the measles, Samuel go*
hooked by a cow the other day, and little Peter
has just chopped off seven of his fingers with the
hatchet. It’s a mercy that he did’nt chop them
all off With these trifling exceptions, we are
ail well and getting along nicely. You needn’t
he at all anxious about us.
*• I almost forgot to say that Sarah Matilda
eloped last week with a tin pedlar. Poor girl!
she’s been waiting for the last ten years for a
chance, and I’m glad she’s married at last. She
needn’t have taken the trouble to elope, though,
for I’m sure I was glad enough to have her go.
She was a great eater, and I find the baked
beans don’t go off near so fast now as they did.
Ihe way that girl would dig into pork and
beans was a caution to the rest of the family.
“The cow took it into her head yesterday to
run away, which was very fortunate, I’m sure,
for the barn caught fire last night and was con
sumed. I was in hopes that the house would
go, too, for it’s very inconvenient, but the wind
was the wrong way, so it did’nt receive much
injury.
“ Some boys went into the orchard the other
night and stripped all the fruit trees. I am
very glad of it, lor if they had’nt, I presume the
children would have made themselves sick by
eating the fruit.”
Atmospheric Telegraph for Transport
ing Packages —The Special Committee ot the
United States Senate, to whom was referred the
memorial of Ithiel S. Richardson, asking for an
appropriation to test the feasibility oflbis pro
posed atmospheric telegraph, have recommended
compliance with the request, and reported a bill
authorizing the construction of a tube, under
the supervision of the Postmaster General, on a
direct line between Washington and Baltimore.
This was the method persued to ascertain
whether the magne ic telegraph invented by
Prof. Morse could be availed of for the various
exigencies of business and social intercourse by
persons widely separated. It was apprehended
that the force of tbe electric current would be
spent, or that some ur.forseen obstacle would be
prevent its transmission, beyond a very limited
distance, till actual experiment had resolved
the doubt. And a similar success is hoped for
by the committee, in the present case, to dissi
pate the fears of those who predict a less effi
cient operation through a longer line of tube
than that which is exhibited in the model shown
at the Capitol, which they declare works admi
rab y, and seems to have overcome all difficul
ties, and some which have long been supposed
insuperable, in the practicable operation ot the
atmospheric telegraph. This model is described
in the report as follows:
“It consists of a horizontal tube of one inch
clear diameter, one half of which is straight,
w hile the other half contains curves designed to
represent the sinuosities of the tube passing
over, uneven ground. One small air-pump,
placed near its centre, aud communicating with
either end of it, exhausts it at pleasure lrom left
to right, or from right to left. A piston, or plun
ger, three inches long, and fitting the tube loose
ly, but followed by several detached disks, or
washers of leather, which accurately fit it, is in
serted in one end of the tube, separated by a cut
off and a few strokes of the pump produced in
the tube a partial vacum. The cut-off is then
reversed, and the plunger set free on the side of
the vacum , relieved from the resistance of the air in
the tube, and propelled alone by the pressure of 1
the atmosphere, passes through in a time whol- -
ly unappreciahle by ordinary means.”
Mr. Richardson refers to a still more practical j
test of the working and capacity of bis tele- :
graph, in a tube a mile long, of three inches '
clear diame’er, and following the elevations and
| depressions of an ordinary ungraded field ; and
the certificates he produces show that the mile
was traversed by the piston or plunger, to which
i was attached a weight ol several pounds, in much
less than a minute.
If the tube be comp'etely exhausted, the at
mospheric pressure being about fourteen and i
three-quarter pounds o the square inch, the pis
ton should pass through the exhausted tube at
a speed equal to about six hundred and thirty
five miles per hour, modified by its weight and
friction- But a perlect vacum is not to be at
tained in practice. It is asserted, however, by
the committee, that such a degree ot exhaustion
is easily attainable, as will secure a speed and
p>wer equivalent to the propulsion of fifty tons
two hundred miles per hour. The mails which
now consume twelve hours in passing between
New York and Washington, may in the opinion '
of the committee, be carried between those
cities in two hours by the proposed atmospheric
telegraph, and at a cost so diminished, that the
Department might send six sets ot mail where
it now sends one, without increasing its expense.

Population, and Education in Georgia.
According to the Census ot 1850, the popula
tion of Georgia was as follows :
Total number of whites 521,592
“ “ free colored 2,931
“ “ slaves 381,672
Os the whites, there were males 266,233
*’ “ u females 255.337
Free colored males 1.375
“ “ females 1^556
Slaves, males 188,857
“ females 192,825
Entire population of the State 906,185
Os the white population there are 41,200
adults who cannot read and write. Os this
number 16,552 were males and 24,648 females.
This is apparently a rather bad showing for
Georgia; but when the nativity of her illiterate
population is inquired into, it will be found, we
apprehend that a large majority of them were
born in other States—particularly in South and
j North Carolina. We regret that the census re-
I turns do not exhibit the nativity of those who
do not read and write, but from the returns of
this county, we are satisfied they are mostly from
South Carolina.
In substantiation of ;he above, it appears from
the census returns tha 37,522 of the white popu
i lation of Georgia are natives ot North Carolina,
and 52,154 of South Carolina.
Deal and dumb, blind, insane and idiotic.—On
the Ist of June, 1850, there were in Georgia;
Deaf and dumb 266

Crops in Cherokee—Copper and other Mines
—Horrible Death—Catoosa Springs.
Red Clay, Whitfield Co., Ga.. )
July 16, 1854. J
Messrs. Editors: —The weather within a few
days past has greatly moderated, and is now
quite pleasant, the nights being so delightfully
cold, Covering on our beds is found quite com
fortable.
The farmers have been for a u r eek or two
very busily engaged in harvesting their crops of
wheat, oats, hay. &c., all of which, in their
abundant yield, richly reward them for their la
bor. Corn crops never were better, and should
good seasons continue, the destitute portions of
Georgia and adjoining States will know where
to apply and get their sacks filled at very low
rates
- I have recently visited the principal Copper
mines in this county, some of which are said to
be as valuable as any in the world. The mines
owned by the Hiwassee Mining Company, from
which large quantities of ore are being sent off
daily, the most of which passes through your
city, are estimated at ten millions of money.—
There are other mines not yet in operation
which are said to he equally valuable. Fine
surface indications of copper, zinc, lead, iron,sil
ver and gold, have been discovered in almost all
the counties in the Cherokee country; and
whenever the people here get hold of sufficient
capital to enable them to make the proper tests
ot this country, it will be seen, it will equal in
mineral wealth any in the world. The scene
ry along the route through the mountains to the
mines is truly sublime. The road lies on the
banks of the Oconee river.for a distance of twen
ty miles. This little stream comes dashing,
foaming, roaring, and sparkling over rocks and
precipicee, presenting a spectacle in many pla
ces almost too grand to behold.
Mr. Henry Stansell, of this neighborhood, was
instantly killed on Thursday last by tbe flying
to pieces of the cylinder ot a threshing machine,
many ot the teeth penetrating his body like so
many rifle balls.
There are now about eighty persons, visitors
at the Catoosa Springs. Those who like good
accommodations, good water, and good company
will do well to visit the Catoosa. The gentle
manly proprietor, Mr. Hickman, is bent on doing
things up brown , just as the peopie would have
them.
The health of this country is very good, all
bowel affections, which for a time prevailed
here, having in a gn-at measure subsided,

Attack on a Sheriff. —Mrs. Robinson,
the veiled murderess, at Troy, N. Y., made a
violent attack upon the sheriff, a few mornings
1 since, as he entered the jail to convey her break
fast to her. It appears that without provocation
| she seized a brass candlestick with marble bot
! tom, and struck the sheriff a severe blow with
! it over his eye, knocking him down, and inflict
j ing a considerab'e wound on his face. His only
offence was the enforcement of the prison dis
\ cipline. She has handcuffed and chain

Jullien’s Start in the World. —ln Lon
■ don, it is said, Jullien was never recognized ei
j ther as conductor, composer, or artist. The on-
I ly position he held was that oi leader of a cotil
lon band which furnished dancing music for balls
and private parties, at so much a night. His
wile became famous for furnishing exquisite
boquets for the London aristocracy, and amassed
considerable money, when he opened a saloon
and gave shilling concerts, at which polkas,
quadrilles and waltzes weap played to audiences
unable to appreciate music of a higher order. j
The Crops. —The wheat crop in the early
part of the season appeared slim—the fears of
our farmers generally were, that they would not
realize the seed they had sown; the wheat crop
has since been gathered, and to be over »
half an average crop. The oat crop is now gath- ,
ered, and proved to be abundant and very good.
The appearance of the corn crop at present is ex- I
ceedingly flattering.and should the balance of the !
season prove favorable, the crop of corn in this
and adjoining counties will be very large, and
for which the planter may expect to be well
paid. Although from the present prospects an
unusual quantity of produce will be made, but
not in proportion to the increased demand; the
crop will probably be a third larger than usual,
the demand will be increased double or thribble.
Favored as we are likely to be with a good crop
this county, it will come far short of supplying
the demand within in its own borders. All ot
which extra demand may be accredited to the
copper mania as our idle crokers term it.—Bah

Crops.— Out recent visit to Madison, (says
the Tallahassee Floridian of the 15th inst.,)
where we met gentlemen from various parts of
the State, furnished an opportunity (or learning
something relative to the general prospect of the
crops in Florida of which we availed ourself.
We heard but one expression on the subject
The crops every where are represented to be
most promising—they could not be better. One
person remarked, when speaking ot the corn
crop, that he had never known such a prospect
since he had been in Florida. On our way
home, we had the pleasure of riding over the
crop of the hospitable Capt. Lanier, whose
plantation is situated in the heart of that rich
body of land known as “Patterson’s Hammock, 7 ’
some ten miles West of Madison Court House.
We have never seen such corn as our kind host
carried us through, while his cotton crop is deci
dedly the best we have met with anywhere.
Much of it would„reach to the shoulders of a
person on horseback, and is as full of “fruit 77 as
could be desired. In one instance there were
counted on a stalk as many as thirty-four bolls,
nearly all of which were full grown. The Cap
tain estimates that with no disaster,his crop will
average three thousand pounds of seed cotton, per
acre, and from our inspection and the character
of the land, we should not judge the estimate at
all extravagant.
Why People Don’t go Pleasuring. —The
absence of the usual crowds at the wateiing places
this season, says the Baltimore Sun, is a subject
of general comment with the press, and there is
a very unanimous opinion as to the cause. It is
not alone at Cape May that hotel proprietors
look back at the dull prospect before them; New
port and Saratoga are equally deserted. A high
money market is the rein which generally brings
extravagant living to a halt, and many of these
who usually attend the summer resorts, have
found their last winter’s residence in town with
its flashing splendor and elegant luxuriousness,
has made serious inroads upon the pocket. The
whole matter may be summed up in a paragraph,
and the New York Courier does it in this way.
When men live up to the extreme of an in
come which, though nominally large, is not the
product of property accumulated and laid aside,
but the mere profits of a business more or less
precarious-rwhen upon such an income they build
“a house and a half” after the fashion of a ducal
palace, and furnish throughout in a style which
would make most dukes stare with wonder at
the outlay and the bad taste, it is not at all sur
prising that when Erie and Harlem are “down,”
it is found impossib'e to allow Madatn and Miss,
and young Master to polk and gamble the sum
mer away at the rate of three hundred dollars a
week,exclusive of extras, which mayor may
not be twice as much more. And thus it is that
in the present condition of financial matters,
quite a large number of those who would have
thronged the halls of Saratoga, Newport and kin
dred places, stay away because they have not
the money wherewith to go.
John Mitchel, the Irish patriot, last week de
livered an address before the Washington and
Jefferson Societies of the University of Virginia,
The subject was “True Civilization,” and the
means of attaining it. The cant about materi
al p:ogress/>f the present day receives
cism at his hands :
“The highest civilization in the world means
simple justice; yet, if you ask the first ten men
you may casually meet in a railroad car what
they mean by the civilization they talk of, (for
everybody talks of it, and congratulates him
self and his neighbors upon it,) nine of them will
tell you that it is steam,that it is electricity,that it
is a printing pres', that it is carpets and uphol
stery, that it is gunpowder or gas. One man,
protounder than the rest, will perhaps answer
that it is commerce—infinite imports, unbound
ed exports, and an unheard-of trade, world-em
bracing commerce, that brings distant nations
near, making them a family ol mutually helpful
brethren. Such is the current talk.
“Now, ,t is not altogether clear that discove
ries in art and science, how widely soever ap
plied and made subservient to men’s conveni
ence, are any real improvement, demonstrate
any real progress towards anything good, are
civilization, or so much as instruments or fur
therances of civilization. The printing press, or
the electric wire, is a material vehicle of
thought, of wisdom, of nonsense, or of vice, as
the case may be. If a man tells a lie at one end
of the wire, it will not come truth at the other
end. The railroad carries men very qu ckly up
on their business, such as it is, ba their errands
good or evil, be tbeir intents wicked or chaiita
ble. The sumptuous appointments of houses
and carriages are indeed a splendid garniture of
life, if men do not forget the way to live the
while. As for what is called commerce, cer
j tainly there is nothing intrinsically base or evil
! in trade or traffic, yet it may be said with at least
| equal truth that there is nothing elevating, refi
| nmg, or purifying in it. ‘As a nail (saith the
sons of Sirach) sticketh fast between the cor
ners of stones, so doth siu stick fast between
buying and selling.’ However that be, certain
it is that there is no more ruthless tyrant on
! earth thin the true commercial spirit; arid the
! present age has seen no more human beings slain
i in one nation, for the mere sake of commerce,
I in three year*, than any thirty-years’ war ever
slew—more miserably and ignominiously slain
j than war at its worst and wickedest could ever
j slay.
The every-day sentimental cant about uni
j versal benevolence and peace—the peace of trade
and Commerce, and Crystal Palacedom—meets
j with little mercy at the hands of the Irish pat
i riot:
j “Not peace, but war, has called forth the
grandest, finest, tenderest, most generous quali
ties of manhood and of womanhood. What
: made America, and breathed into her nostils a
fiery life? War. And oh ! Heaven! whatan
made Ireland, and brought her into the pit of de
basement whereshe lies now? Pence,patience,
; and perseverance under insolent oppression, and
i tha very jaws of national death.”
According to Mr. Mitchel, the fierce hostility
to the growth and power of Russia, now so pop
ular, is ill judged and wrong. Russia is our
great co-adjutor in true civilization,
i “Os all the people, and tiibes, and tongues, and
I nations now extant, there are two—one in the
east, Russia; one in the west, America—on
j whom has devolved, all I believe, the task of
carrying on the main concerns of the world, in
these our days—the task of taking order, not for
the re-generation, but for the conservation of
the human race.
i “Placed physically in two hemispheres—
placed morally at two opposite poles of thought,
in two separate centres of action, these two na
tions appear to me—now that Asia is dead, and
Africa unborn, and Western Europe in the ago
nies, almost with the death rattle in her throat—
these two young nations seem to be set each in
i s place, each with its own work to do, each
with its own problem to solve, at its own proper
peril. The main difference is that Americans
will themselves work out their experiment:—
the Russians will have theirs worked out upon
them, and for them. These two nations are
now, in the only proper sense of that term, the
civilized and civilizing nations of the globe.”

Negotiations at Madrid. — d Few Word*
Direct from Mr. Soule. —The Paris correspondent
of the Cincinnati Gazette writes—what indeed
was foreseen as the inevitable resuit of his ne
gotiations—that Mr. Soule has no longer any
hopes of an amicable settlement of the Cuban
question. The correspondent says, he derives
his facts and conclusions from Mr. Soule himself,
and that they are therefore, worthy of entire
confidence. These facts and conclusions are jto
the following effect, viz : that the responses and
general conduct of the Spanish Cabinet have
been so uniform from the day on which his first
demand was made, that he has become convinc
ed that their minds were made up in advance as
to what line of conduct they intended to pur
sue. r
“ No turn which he cou'd give to the negotia
tions has succeeded in changing the uniformity of
their replies, or the obstinacy with which they
seem determined to cling to. a settled line of
policy. This conduct on their part is bassed on
two hypothesis which possess their entire con
fidence ; one of which is, that England and
France will lend her their assistance, in case of
emergency, while the other is, that the demands
of the Goverment of the United States are mere
demagogical threats made to subserve political
ends, and no based on the true sentiment of the
people of the United States. No treaty has been
concluded between France, England and Spain
oil the subject; but conferences have been held,
tiom which Spain has gathered sufficient assur
ances to give her confidence in their ultimate
support in case ofactual war. The only ques
tion which Spain believes divides the parties is
the question ot slavery in Cuba, and upon this
question, when it comes to the point, she will
give into her allies, so as to secure their support.”

They presented a hill with four counts against
! Walter Bishop, Thomas Jackson, Martin Stovel,
• John Morrison, Samuel Proudman, Walter Phe

: as follows :
, First, that on the 26th of May, they, with five
i hundred others, to the juiors unknown, did un
-1 lawfully assemble together in a manner that con
-1 stituted a riot; second, that on that occasion
i they disturbed the peace and committed an as
; sault on Sullivan A. Cutting ; third, that they
• made an attack upon the court-house in an un
lawful manner. Bishop, Jackson, Stovell and
Morrison, were arraigned on this indictment,

the day of trial will be fixed.

OBITUARY.
It is with feelings of no ordinary sorrow, that
wo are called upon to record the death of Joseph
Henry Lumpkin, Jr, Esq., who doparted this
lire on the 12ihinst.,in the 27th year of his age.
When one, in the morning of life, in the begin
ning of a career of usefulness and honor, is taken j
from the earth, whilst others, whose removal would
i an addition to the welfare and happiness to the
| communities wherein they reside, are suffered to
live on, human minds cannot but wonder at the
ways of Providence, and acknowledge that they
are, indeed “inscrutible and past finding out.”
J. 11. L., was bern in Oglethorpe county, on the !
13th of March, 1828. On attaining his majority,
he was admitted to the Bar, and commenced the
practice of Law in Lexington, where, by his inde
fatigable energy and attention to the interests of
his clients, and by bis superior talcnt3 as an At
torney, he soon won for himself a large and -daily
increasing practice, and a reputation every way
worthy of the i lustrious name he boro.
By his death, the Bar has lost one of its most
promising members, and our community one of its
most useful and public spirited citizens.
The vacancy which his death has occasioned in
these spheres of life may, indeed, be supp.ied ; but
who can fill ti e void which his loss has made in
the hearts cf his devote i wife, children and
friends? Alas ! their's is a loss, which, however,
time may midgate, the anguish of it can never re
store. As a husband and father, he was one of the
best and most devoted, who ruled his household
with a gentle firmness, and a love that had no limit.
God comfort thosewhose loving hearts are now left
desolate! Ardent in his attachments his friendship
partook of the warmth and energy of bis charac
ter, and,made him a whole-hearted friend ; one
ever thoughtful of feeling and interest and ever
ready to do good services for those he loved ; as
none know better than ho who pens this feeble tri
bute to his memory.
“ Fare a ell, dear friend! This earth that bears
the dead,
Bears not alive a nobler gentleman.
Adieu ! and take thy praise with thee to Heav
en ;
Thy faults be buried with thee in the grave _
But not remember’d in thy epitaph ”
Lexington, July 15th, 1854. y

At the date of our last review the market closed quiet

! the sales on Saturday and Monday summed up 9750

i ward with less spirit, and the operations since have been
i on rather a limited scale, "the business of the tin - e
; days, ending on Thursday night, comprising only 3500
j bales. Yesterday the demand was still more restricted
j by the extrejne pretensions of factors, and the sales were

sums up barely 14 000 bales. With regard to prices we
! have little or no change to notic.e in mixed lists and the
finer grades, but even running Stict Middling having
been scarce and in good request, has commanded con
siderably higher figures, rendering it necessary for
us to advance our quotations for it £ cent
