The mulattoes in the United States are W one-eighth as numerous as the blacks ; the free ■yll mulattoes are more than halfof the free blacks R In the United States the number of and their descendants is nearly S or 10 to 1 of those that were imported; in the British West Indies there are not two remaining for every 5 import ed, and their descendants. About 10,000 im ported Africans survive in the southern States. About 2,500,000 slaves are connected with the field work ot agriculture, in every 100 of whom . 2 are employed upon hemp, 5 upon rice, 6 uoor. p sugar, 14 upon tobacco, aud 73 on cotton and other products. There are 347,525 families fu* holding slaves, or 2,000,000 peisons. One fifth k of the slave properties are in a single slave, and Bt nearly one-half in less than 5 slaves. W New York has about one-eighth ol the popula- M tion of the Union, Pennsylvania one-tenth, De- I laware one-two-bundred-and-sixty-tnird part. K In the last ten years Vermont gained but ten per B. , cent., whilst Wisconsin gained 886 per cent.; in WF 60*years Deleware gained but 54 per cent., and Hfe’ Tennessee 2701 per cent. There are about two families to every 11 free persons in the Union, B and one dwelling to a little more than six per- P sons. The average age of white persons in the Union is 23 years; of free colored, 24.54; of slaves, 21.35; and the age which equally divides each of these classes of population is 19 15 for whites, 20 - 27 for tree colored, and 17 02 for | slaves. Not more than 20 000 persons who were r in the country when the Declaration ot Indepen p' dence was signed can still survive.

The largest proportion of foreigners is in Wisconsin and Minnesota, being about one third of the whole; the least proportion is in North Carolina, being 1 to 229 natives; in South Carolina, 1 in 32; in Arkan sas,! in 98; in Mt-sissipi, lin 62. More than a quarter of the free persons born in the South f have left for other sections; only one sixth have lett the eastern or middle States: only one-tenth the Southwest. 726,450 persons born in the tree i States now live in slave States; whilst 232,112 / born in the slave States reside in the free. 1,800, L 000 foreigners reside in the free States, and less ' than 400,000 in the slave States.

If the United States increase in the next 100 years as last as in the last sixty, the total popu lation would be 447,159,670; if as fast as be tween 1840 and 1850, deducting imigrants, 252, 152,290. The most moderate ratio would give in 1900 70,000.000 and in 1950 125,000.000, of whom 64,000,000 would reside in the'valley of Mississippi. The annual increase of the United States has been nearly three times as great as that of Prussia, notwithstanding what she gained from Poland, more than four times as much as Russia, six times as much as Great Britain, nine times as much as Austria, ten times as much as France. Upon the basis of past increase in 1950 France would have 61,000,000, and Great Britain 83.000,000. There are 38,183 buildings usee for religious worship in the Udited States, having accommo dations for over 14,000,000 psrsons, and of a total value, including other property, of $87,446, 331. There are about 30,000 clergymen. The Methodists have more than half ot all the chur ches. There are about 5 churches to every 3 000 of the total population. The churches of Char leston accomodate a larger portion of the whole population than do those of Boston. The federal government has granted over for ty-eight millions acres of land tor school purpo ses, and over four millions for universities.— Maine has a larger proportion of scholars at school than any other state or country in the world. Denmark exceeds the United States; the United States exceeds alt other countries, even including the slaves. Thus, there is one person at school to every 4.9 whites and free colored, aud one to every 5 6 of total population ; in Prussia, 1 to 6.2; in Great Britain, 1 to 10; France, 1 to 10.5; Russia, 1 to 50 ; Portugal, 1 to 81. In New England so admirably is the school system that only one person over twenty years of age in every lour hundred of the native whites is incapable of reading and writing; in the South and Southwest the proportion is 1 to 12 ; in the Territories,! in 6; in the slavehold ing States, 1 to 12; in the non-slaveholding, Ito4o ;in the whole Union, Ito 22. The pro portion of the illiterate to the whole foreign born is 1 in 12. Thera were in 1775 thirty-five newspapers in the United States; in 1810, 359; 1828, 852; 1840,1,631; 1850, 2,s26—circulating annually nearly five hundred millions of copies. Os the newspapers in 1850, 855 were whig, and 742 democratic. The public libraries of the United States contain near five millions of volumes. In the slaveholding States thirteen free color ed persons in every 10,000 are in jails, prisons, or penitentiaries; in the non-slaveholding 28 in every 10,000. ‘About one-third of the paupers on the Ist of June, 1850, were foreigners, al though they constitute but one-tenth ot the pop ulation. There are 1,449,075 farms and plantations in the United States, averaging 203 acres each, and of the value, with implements, each $2,362 ; about one-thirteenth of the whole area of the organized States and Territories is improved aud one-eighth more is occupied, and not improv ed. In New England 26 acres in the hun dred are improved; in the South, 16; in tht Southwest, 5. About' one-sixth of the nation al domain is occupied or in ownership.

Health or the City.— The weather con tinues cool and overcoats and fires are not un acceptable. In exposed situations in the city at 6 o’clock yesterday morning, the mercury iu the thermometer, ranged, we learn, 40 to 42 degress. The atmosphere, also, appears to be very pure so much so that several of our leading Physi- ' cians, whose authority on such matters stands ; deservedly high, have, we understand, in an- I swer to enquires on the subject, stated that there i is no danger now incurred bv absentees and strangers in visiting Charleston, consequently, we have daily many arrivals, and our vaiious hotels and boarding houses are gradually filling up. We would recommend, however, those who have not past the Summer with us to be prudent on their arrival and avoid exposure.— Ch. Courier , 4th inst. AUGUSTA, GEUK(tIA. THURSDAY MORNING, NOVR 9.

We find on our table quite a number of new and interesting works, some of which shall re ceive further notice fiom our hands after we have leisure to peruse them. At present w*e have had, with few exceptions, barely time to do more than glance over their pages, and to render our thanks to the several parties, who have so kindly sent them to us. From Messrs. Thos. Richards & Son, we have received the following works which are for sale by them. Party Leaders; Sketches of Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, Andrew Jackscn, Henry Clay, John Randolph, of Roanoke Ac. By Jo. G. Baldwin, author of the Flush Times of Alabama and Mississippi, New York, D. Appleton A Co., Publishers. This is a most excellent and interesting pro duction from the pen ot Mr. Baldwin, wh it would seem never writes, without writing well The Flush Times of Alabama and Mississippi' was well received, and we think the present wqrk will be still more acceptable to the public. It contains sketches of the public services and personal character of some of the most prominent men, who have been connected with our govern ment, from the days of Jefferson to the death of Clay. These are eloquently written and show a large fund of information on the part of the Author, in relation to the political affairs of our country since the Revolution. The writer is no* bigot to any party, or blindly attached to any man. He writes impartially and censures bold ly. Those who read his sketches of John Ran dolph or Henry Clay, will not fail to give the whole volume a careful perusal. Emanuel Philibert, or the European wars of the XVI century. By Alexandre Dumas, New York. Published byD. Appelton A Co. Like every thing Dumas writes, this novel is thoroughly Frepch in its conception, and abounds in Melo-Dramitic Scenes. Still these scenes are painted with such skill that the reader will find it a most attractive romance. It contains over 500 pages, and is printed and got up in the usual neat and handsome style of the Appeltons. The Virginia Comedians ; or, Old Days in the Old Dominion. Edited from tho Mss of C. Ef fingham, Esq., In two volumes. This work is designed to portray the manners and habits of the people of Virginia, prior to the Resolution. The w riter seems to entertain a strong partiality towards the“F. F; V ? s.” The Nursery Basket —A Hand Book, of Prac uh in u/e proper contents of a Nursery Basket and the manner of preparing “Baby-Clothes.” It should be in the hands of every young couple- Captain Canot ; or Twenty years of an African Slaver; By Branty Mayer.

G S. etc., etc. No. IV. A most valuable work, and should truly be “read by the million. 7 ’ Messrs.

I he Ladies Complete Guide to Crochet, Fancy Knitting and Needlework—By Mrs. Aun S.

The Cabin Boys Story—A Semi Nautical Ro mance founded on fact—By the author of “The Pirate Doctor,” etc., etc. A handsomely printed and illustrated work and one that has been well spoken of by the press. We have only had leisure as yet to bestow a cursory glance at it pa ges. It seems to be an interesting narrative of the Adventures by Sea and Land, ot a young sailor. We are indebted to Messrs. Stringer & Towsend, of New York, for the followtng: Robert Bruce, the Hero King. By the author of ‘•Wallace, the Hero of Scotland.’’ Any thing connected with the days of Robert Bruce will no doubt be interesting, not only to his own countrymen, but also to a large class of readers The present volume is well written and will prove interesting. W e are also under obligations to the respective Publishers for the icllowing. Hunt’s Merchants Magazine and Commercial Review. October, 1854.

Car rier having got into the car, soon rose above the heads otthe multitude, when to the astonishment ot every spectator, he cut the cords which held the balloon to the earth, and sailed off rapidly to wards the sky. The disappointment of Mr. Elliot, who was anticipating a magnificent aerial voyage, so affected him that he fainted. Carrier succeeded in making a safe descent, very much to the suprise of eveiybody. Acquisition of Cuba. —The Washington Un ion noticing that some of the British journals have recently favored the idea of the United States getting possession of Cuba, says it has been the “unfaltering purpose” of President Pierce to acquire that island honorably, and he believes this duty to be binding upon him still* no matter whether the question is considered in its relations to humanity, to commerce, or to freedom. Additional Ltfe Boats for the Collins Steamers. —The owners of the Collins steam ships have decided to furnish each of the ships with five additionallife boats, which, with what they have now, they expect to be able to pro vide for 400 persons, witu water and provisions for several days in ordinary weather- Each ship .will have eleven life boats, including the old oues. The new boats ordered are of the largest cla-s, and will be nested on deck, and so prepar ed tha* they can be put afloat and equipped in twenty minutes. Each boat is to be numbered and have a crew attached, also numbered and ticketed. Thanksgiving Day. —lt will be seen from the Goveror’s Proclamation, that he has appoint ed Thursday the 23J irist., as a day of Thanks giving, Humiliation and Piayer. It is to be hoped that ail our people, wheth er of the bie sed or affl.cted, will set apart the day specified, for the solemn purposes set forth in His Excellency’s Proclamation. Dead Hogs. —lt is stated iu the Cambridge (Md.) Democrat that a number of hogs have been found dead in different woods in that coun ty during the receni dry weather. It is suppos ed they died for want of water, after eating a a quantity of acorns, which are very heating to them. Tney were iound alongside of ponds ot water, which they had drank treely of after do ing without for several days. The Weather. —The Savannah Georgian o 1 the Bth inst., says;—'’Although Yellow Jack has disappeared, Jack Fiost (real, killing Jack.) most provokingly delays his coming. Sunday night was the coldest of the season—sufficiently cold lor a heavy trost, but lor the wiuu, prevail ing a little too high, from N. N. E. Yesterday, at nightfall, it was warmer, the wind prevailing from the east, and 'favorable prospects of rain wexe apparent, however.the temrerature a wholesome irost this morning—u promise, however, which may not be fulfilled. We are glad to perceive, in the meantime, that our friends heve uo (ears about coming home. At every coiner we meet a cheeriul face, and grasp the hand of a returned absentee—indeed, they aie already as numerous as "Good mornings’’ at the Post Office. * Florida Cotton Croj. —A letter from the Neighborhood ol Tallahassee, dated November 2d contains the following remaiks in relation to the cotton crop: "Our crops are not what they promised to be some time since. The rot has been unprece dentedly destructive to cotton within the last six weeks. I doubt jf we are not short ol last years product.’’ t A simple and efficient plan for facilitating the posting ot letters in the most populous parts ol London has been adopted. It consists of placing pillar letter boxes along the leading thorough fares, at intervals Os half a rnile or thereabouts. , These hollow pillars will be fitted Tor the recep tion of letters, and fixed in the footway, in such a position as not to obstruct trafie of any kind, and the Post Office Department will itself bear the whole cost ol the construction and erection. The letters are to be taken out every hour, so as to continue the present admirable system of the London Post Office, whereby any letter posted within three miles of the General Post Office, is delivered to its address within a period of not more than two hours from the time at which it was deposited in the letter-box. Treaty Between the United States and Russia. —The Union publishes officially the trea ty recently made between Secretary Mhrcy, on behalf of oi r government, and Mr. Edward de Stoeckl, the Russian Charge d’Affairs, on behalf of Russia. T. he two high contracting paities re cognise as permanent and immutable the foUow princapies, to wit: Ist. 1 hat free ships make free goods—that is to say, that the effects or goods belonging to the subjects or citizens of a power or State at war are free from capture and confiscation when found on boahi ot neutial vessels, with the ex ception of articles contraband of war. 2d. T hat the property of neutrals on board an enemy’s ve'sel is not subject to confiscation, un less the same b.i contraband ot war. They en gage to apply iue»e principles to the commerce and navigation of all such powers and States as shail consent to adopt them on their part as per manent and immutable. By another article tjje contending parties re serve themselves to come to an ulterior under standing as circumstances may require, with re gard to the application and extension to be given, if there be any cause tor it, to the pi in* ciples laid down in the first article. But they declare trotn this time that they will take the stipulations contained in said article Ist as a rule whenever it shall become a question, to judge of the rights of neutrality.

Death of Mr James Screven —lt is with : ;he deepest sorrow that we have been informed >f the death, yesterday by drowning, of Mr. James Screven, third son of Dr. James P. Scre ven, of this city. We have no words in which to comment upon this most melancholy event, by which one deeply endeared to his family and friends—just entering upon an early manhood— has been snatched away, as in a moment. How unsearchable the dealings of Providence! Welt may we exclaim : God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform, He plants his footsteps on the sea And rides upon the storm. * All that man can know is that “He is too wise, to err—too good to be unkind.”— Savannah Georgian , Btk inst. Arrest of Judge Knowlton. —The U. S. deputy marshal arrived here vesterday, having in custody Judge Knowlton, of the circuit court. Judge K is arrested at the instance of the Hon. Caleb Cushing. The difficulty, we understand, grows out of an injunction granted by Judgei. Knowlton in the suit of Cushing vs. Hungerford, The Judge is brought before the U. S.

Nov. 4th — The Frightful Oc cident on the Rock Island Railroad. —The accident on the Rock Island Railroad, by which 30 oi 40 first class passengers were killed or wounded, was caused by the train running over a horse.— At the latest accounts all the sufferers had been removed to a large stone building on Scott street, in the village of Joliet, and the employees of the Railroad Company, as well as the people of the village, were using every effort to alleviate their ! sufferings. It appears that when the engine was thrown j offthe track, the two forward passenger cars | were thrown on the top of it, and the steam es- | caping, wasdriven with tiemendous force thiough the dense mass of human beings packed closely j amongst the wrecks of the cars. The engineer, W. G. Brown, was fearfully j scalded. His brother, acting as fireman, had both of his legs broken. A gentleman uamed Caiter, from Poughkeepsie, N. York, was terribly burn ed and scalded. G. W. Albion, of Monroe coun ty, Ohio was also badly scalded. Sarah Albion, of Monroe county, Ohio, burned and scalded.— Mrs. Cox, of Washington county, lowa, was se verely injured. Catherine Laughlin, of Wash ington county, lowa was also very seriously in jured. Mr. Carpenter, of Canandaigua, New York, was terribly wounded, and has since died. It is feared 10 or 12 others will die. One ac count says at least 40 passengers ate more or less injured. [second dispatch ] Chicago, Nov. 4th.—Eight more deaths have occurred from the effects of the Rock Island Railroad Accident, among them the wife and two children of .Win. C. Laugblin, of Gettys burg, Pennsylvania. Twenty-five others are still lying dangerously wounded, many of them not expected to survive. Washington, Nov. s.— The Case of Captain Gibson —The arrival of Captain Gibson in this city yesterday caused much conversation, if being supposed that his visit is in some way connected with the forthcoming letter threatened by Mr. Belmont, relative to his case. The Cap tain brought a valuable collection of ornamental work forwarded by Mr. Vattemare to the State Department. It is thought that Capt G. has some important disclousures to make relative to the late minister ial conference at Osfend. The important docu ments which so tortunafly felt into his hands will be given up to the State Department. Capt. G. had an interview with Mr. Marcy yesterday.

Departed this life at her residence, Stonoy Point, Wilkes county, Ga , on the morning ot the 30th of October,. Mrs. Martha Wellborn, relict of the late Col. Abner Wellborn, aged seventy years, one month and five days The deceased had been, for a number of years, a devoted and consistent member of the Baptist Church at Greenwood, and ever adorned the pro fession which she had made. She has left numer ous friends and ro’atives, and six children to mourn their irreparable loss ; but they mourn not as those who have no hope, for they believe their loss is her eternal gain. In her last hours she impressed a full confidence of her acceptance with her Di vine Mastor. Her sickness was protracted and painful, yet she murmured not, having that assur ance in tho atonement made ~for her by her Lord and Saviour which destroys the effects of pain and f.^ r^ c^s sting of death. Throughout a long Uio she had been blessed with almost uninterrupt” ed healih, having scarcely ever taken medicine un'il her last illness. She lived to see all her chil dren, but one daughter, hopefully converted and become membeis of the Church of Christ; and oh* may tbe prayers of a dying mother be answer ed for that daughter. “ Low she lies who blest our ©yes Through many a sunny day, *.he may not smile, she will not rise. The life hath past away. et there is a world of light beyond, W here we neither die nor sleep ; She is there ol whom our souls were fond. Then wherefore do we weep.” W. R. W. NEW PALL GOODS. LD.

I Ino Executive Department, » Milledgeville, Ga. ) THE dispensations of Providence towards the people ot Georgia, during the last twelve months, are calculated both to inspire gratitude and subdue the heart. On tho one hand, they have enjoyed general prosperity, and on the otner, in many sections of the State, they have been visited by disease and calamity. Therefore, in the recognition of our dependence upon the Supreme Ruler ol tho Lni verse, it is meet tha our songs of praise should be tempered with deep contrition and earnest sup plication. Therefore, I; Horsohel V. Johnson, Governor of Georgia, do issue this, my Proclamation, appoint ing Thursday, the Twenty-third instant, as a day ol Thanksgiving humiliation and prayer, and re commend all religious denominations in the State to assemble in their respective places of worship, and perform such devotional exercises as they may deem most appropriate and likely to propitiate the favor of Heaven upon our State and Country.
