The New Post-Office Appointments.
The recent appointments of Postmasters for
Augusta. Savannah, Macon and Columbus, af
ford us the opportunity of paying a tribute to
the good qualities of some of our persona'
friends.
Mr. SmTTHk, the Appointee lor Augusta, is
extensively known in Georgia, and wherever
known ie held in high esteem for bis gentleman
ly bearing, amiabl" disposition and pleasant man
ners, while his fuse talents and pure character
have commanded the respect even of his oppo
nents. H* has shown marked ability, and untir
ing energy in all the newspaper enterprises, polit
ical and literary, ia which he has been engaged,
and the many thousands of subscribers he brought
to their support demonstrated at once the power
of his pen and the strength of his popularity
He has always been distinguished for industrious
and toilsome habits, in all his undertakings
which give assurance that he will till with cred
it and usefulness his new sphere of duty. His
friends can be numbered by thousands who will
hail his appointment as Pcgtmaster with pleas
ure.
It is due Or. Hall, the present incumbent, to
say tint he will retire with the good will and
respect of the entire community ot Augusta.
Not a wool impugning his capacity and fidelity
to his post, has been alleged against him that
we are aware of, and in his removal he but shares
with his political friends in '■ the fortunes of
war," under the operation of the truly republi
can princiole of rotation tn office.
The Appointee for Savannah, Mr. Solomon
Cohkn. at present holds, and has for several
years he'd, 'he respnn ible posit®i of Cashier ot
the Central Railroa '• & Banking Company. This
is a sufficient guaranty of his fitness for the
Postmastership Mr Cohkn was for many years
previously a leading member of the Bar of Sa
vannah in fui practice, and his abilities pre well
known to the profession. He is a gentleman of
intellect and of fine character.
Th* Appointee for Macon. Mr. James A.
XisssT. has for several years occupied the posi
tion of Postmaster of that city, and his reap
pointment is a just compliment to his efficiency.
He is a member of the legal firm of Pos. Nisbet
& Poa. who are in full practice, and in this posi
tion he established himself long since as a man
of intellect and practical business habits.
The Appointee for Columbus. Mr. Robkki’ C.
Forsyth, is a son of the late distinguished Gov
John Forsyth, of Georgia, and brother of
John Forsyth, Esq., one of the most brilliant ’
and vigorous political writers of the South. He
has a hereditary claim to talents, and we presume
he is not deficient in this family gift. For seve- ,
ral years he was in the Columbus P. O . under his ;
brother, then Postmaster, and must during that i
period have acquired practical knowledge of his
new duties. We have not seen him since his boy
hood,and can speak of him from personal knowl
edge. The other gentlemen named we have long
known intimately. In what we have here said,
we believe we have done them no more than
justice.
Homa Gazette for Sale.
The Senior Editor of this rising, and already I
well established literary paper, offers his half in
terest for sale.
Though but one year and seven months es- .
tablished. it already numbers 2.300 subscribers.
Tais indicates that the enterprize meets with
favor, and offers strong inducements to a gentle
man adap'ed for the position. J ,
Mr. Smythe in his address, published in the
last number of the How Gazette, says :
•• However great our success has been, I will
frankly «ta»e. that it has not equalled my expec
tations Perhaps it has exceeded those of anv
one r |se. I hope no one will suppose that I am
complaining. Such is nn* the tact. We have
no right to eomnlain. The public has extended
great encouragement to us. A person with
ample means might well be satisfied with what
we have accomplished in one rear and seven ,
months Noaimilar enterprise, in this Sta'e. :
ever met with the same amount of lavor in the ‘
same length of time. We have so far. toiled, .
without profit. It is true, the the Gazette is
yielding now. a* th- ra’e oi nearly one thousand
dollars over and above expenses, but our pockets
had to discount heavily for ■ considerable time,
to sustain it. Our time has been thrown in, '
and our reward for that, exists only in the pres
ent value of the subscription list. Such is the
true state of the case.’-
Mr. Surras says that his terms will be rea- j
•enable.
Mr. Whyte, the Junior ejßfr, says in the ■
same number
u Not yet more than a year and a half old. its '
list of sub-'•nbers amounts to nearly two thou
sand fiv han 'red. No journal of a literary char
acter at ibaSo <ti>, has ever advanced with the
same stri ». That it is already upon a firm >
basis is beyond a doubt.
We cherish the most sanguine hopes in re
ference to the future. The ‘ Home Gazette” i
has now acquired a reputation,—whether well I
d»s*rved or not we will leave others to deter
mine. It numbers among its friends many
warm supporters of Southern Literary enter
prise, and there are few among its readers who
have not displayed the kindest feelings toward
it. That it shall be worthy of such generous I
efforts in the future, no diligence and no effort
will be spared.”
It l» to be hoped for the credit of our city and
State, that this opportunity for literary success
and a prosperous intellectual enterprise, will not
remain long unsought.
If anything were needed to stir up our city
pride to sustain the with increased kind-
ness and liberal patronage, it may be found in
the suggestion of its removal to a public spirited
communitv.wher* merit is never overlooked,and
where a noble appreciation of home enterprise
is always moat handsomely appreciated. It is
this com men lah'e trait that his given to Savan
nah much of that irrepressible energy and mor
s’ power that is impelling her onward in her
brilliant car-»r of prosperity anrbgreatness.

Fourth District Convention.
We copy from the Jeffersonian the following
j portion of the proceedings of the Democratic
~ I Convention, to nominate a candidate for the 4th
Congressional District:
~ On motion of Col. Nelson, ot DeKalb—
_ Resolved, That each county be entitled to
twenty-three votes, that being Ihe highest rep-
, r resentation present.
, On motion of R. M. Stell, of Henry—
Resolved, That two-thirds ol the votes cast in
0 this Convention be necessary to the nomination
il of a candidate.
The following resolutions were then intro
duced by Col. Nelson, of DeKalb, and after an
eloquent and able speech from B. D. Thomas
r ‘on. Esq., of Heard, in which the true positions
-of parties were defined, and a powerful argument
. in tavor of the entire unanimity of the Demo
cratic party, were unanimously adopted.
r Festival, That there are no longer issues that
'• should divide the democratic party.
Resolved. That the importance of the ap
proaching State election most absolutely require
a thorough organization of the Democratic par
’ ty. and that anything like proscription or party
t tests further than the principle* of the Baltimore
r platform of 1853. and reiterated in President
Pierce’s Inaugural Address, can be productive ot
nothing but evil.
s Resolved, That it becomes the duty of every
i democrat who desires the success of his prinei
. p'es. to unite cordially in the support ot the
choice of a majority of the party, and the choice
~ should be directed to the man who can best har
monize the party.
• Resolved. I'hat we will, as a party, maintain
the resolutions of the Georgia Convention ot
0 1850, hoping that, if ever another aggression up
on our rights be attempted, all of the South, hav

Articles on the Temperance Question.
We have many essays and letters, and oc
casionally proceedings of public meetings, some
of them quite long, pressed on our attention for
publication. It is impossible to make room for
them all, in a journal devoted to other objects-
But we will endeavor to give the courrent news
and movements on this subject, to the extent we
can compatibly with other duties.

FIRST DAY—MORNING SESSION.
The Southern and Western Commercial Con
’ vention. which adjourned from Baltimore in De
’ cember lint, to m, - I in this cil v. .-omm.-m-od its
session yesterduy morning, at 100 clock, in the
great. Hall of the Exchange Buildings.
1 There were not less than two thousand per-
1 sons present, which number is only a small por
tion of the delegates and strangers now in Mem
phis. For the last three days the tide of striui-
' gers pouring into our city has been constant, and
’ still the stream continues, without anv decrease.
5 Every hotel in the city is crowded to its utmost
1 capacity with visitors, and “ the cry is, still they
come!” _
Among the arrivals are some ol the most
: prominent and influential citizens ol our conn
tiy, who have come to give the benefit ot their
' wisdom and deliberation for the promotion of
' the objects sought to be consummated at this
most important meeting.
At the opening of the Convention, yesterday
' morning, we noticed Senator Bell, of Tenn ;
Gov. Foote, of Mi s; Ex Gov. Quitman,of that.
1 State ; Hon. Robt. Johnson, ot Arkansas; Gen.
Memucan Hunt, of Texas, and many others,
whose names lire well known throughout the
length and breadth of our Union.
' Major .lames Penn, of Tenn., Chairman of
' the Committee of Arrangements, appointed by
the President ot the late Baltimore Convention,
in accordance with a resolution adopted by that
'. body, culled the assemblage to order, and after a
1 few introdii tory remarks introduced the Rt.
Rev. James H. Otey, who off. red up n prayer.
At the closeefthe prayer. Mr. Penn, tho tem
porary Presiilent, introduced the Hon W. (’.
Dawson, of Georgia, to the meeting as its presi
ding officer, with the following remarks : —“ In
December last this Convention met in Balti
more, and to preside over the deliberations ol'this
body nt that time was elected II >n. W. C Daw
son. According to the rules which govern cases
of this find, Mr. Dawson is now the presiding
officer of this Convention, and I now invite him
to the Chair.”
Mr. Dawson rose, and, in reply to the invita
tion extended to him said:—“The President of
the late Baltimore Convention claims no r ght
to the Chair to day. This is a Convention com- I
posed in main of gentlemen who did not attend
or belong to the meeting at Baltimore, and there
fore I have no right to the position of acting as
the presiding officer of this body.”
“ Grn. Roots— l rise for the purpose of making
a motion, which I know will meet with the ap
proval of this meeting. His that W. C. Daw
son be ejected by acclamation the President of
this Convention ”
This motion was unai iiouslv carried, when i
Mr. Penn appointed Menis, Leßoy Pope, John |
Bell, and Bishop James H. Otey, a committee I
to conduct the President elect to the Chair.
The President then delive.ed the following ad
dress :
Gentlemen of the Convention
of the South and Il'cst:
I feel honored by this exhibition of your con
fidence and attention, unexpected as it is to me.
As the President of this Convention, I will only I
sav. I will try to discharge the duties of this po- .
sition, faithfully, and impartially, with the main
object in view for which this Convention has
been called. As the President of the late Balti
more Convention, I should say a few words be
fore I enter upon the duties of Chair assigned
me. lam no sectional man. [Applause ] Per- '
haps it mav be mv duty to say to you, as I was
one of the individuals who aided in calling the
Baltimore Convention, that in making that call I
I was governed by no motives inconsistent with i
the harmony of this great purpose. I have seen
for years that the land which gave me birth had
been deprived of her rights, and hence it was
that I became energetic in accomnlishing the
purposes of this Convention, for the benefit of
my country.
The wants of the South-West, comnriercially. I
have long been the subject of conversation, and.
in some of the States,discussions; hence the call |
of the Conven'ion. held in Bdtimore in Decern
her last, and the Chamber of Commerce of that '
monumental city should ever be lemembf-red lor
the spirit and energy with which it has claimed
for the West and the South their just equal, and
natural distribution of the exports and imports
of this great and glorious country—and here, we
stand to-day on the hank of the Great Father of
Waters, perhaps on the spot, which may become
one of the great crossing points of this magnifi
cent river for this magnificent Railroad, which
shall unite the waters of the Pacific and the
Atlantic, and which will harmonize and frater
nize the people of this mighty confederacy by |
iron bars from Ocean and Ocean—on that spot
we are now to hold our council—to investigate I
and discuss the important interests of Agricul
ture, Commerce, and Manufactures, much of
which has been presented to the world by the
Baltimore Convention in that admirable paper
submitted bv the Chamber of Commerce of that
city ind the published proceedings of that Con
vention.
This Convention is for no unjust, unfair, sec
tarian or unconstitutional purpose—in opposition
to no geographical interest —hut to examine into
i plain and admitted rights. Ifany speming see-
I tional antagonism appear, the reply is, we are
members ot one family—children of the same
mother, only younger than our elde.s—by one
statute of distributions, the Constitution ol the
United States entjj.led.us to the same rights—to |
an equal share of the same heritage that we
claim, potbinarrhore. Scarcely that—ask noth- ;
ing more, and would not. if we could, take any
thibg more. We know our blessings, as a fami
ly, have been abundant, and that we have lived
on plenty and prosperity,upon what we have
receWW?Bßr’now, we are growing up—our
wantshave increased,and posterity has claims
we should regard. In other words, we desire to
improve our domain, to improve our ways, to
regulate our family intercouse, to tran c act our
own business, and not to trouble our sisters in
manageing our own affairs with one another, or
strangers—but we are hereto ascertain how we
can best manage our heritage, and to develop
the resources and fulfil the duties incumbent
upon us.
Our Agricultural interests first demand our
serious attention How shall we be best develop
its resources. Let us look at the great West, the
Valley of the Mississippi, draining at least 1,-
250,000 square miles, the South, and those lands
bordering on the Atlantic and the Gulf;—let
us examine the present productions of these im
mense territories, and their capability when
fully developed. The contemplation is won
derful. What a surplus of productions is pre
sented—ard then the question arises, gentlemen,
where shall this immense surplus of produce be
consumed ? These questions are before yoq.and
these questions must be answered. What are
we to do? We must examine into our high
ways and see what improvements are necessary,
. and if we find them not sufficient to carry off
1 our surplus products, we must provide artificial
I means f rso doing. Then we are next to as-
I certain the cheapest and best means to carry our
• surplus productions to our consumers, and also
I to ascertain the points on the Atlantic, whithin
: our own section of country, to which this sur
plus should be directed. The question then oc
curs, would it not encourage our agriculture, if
the planter should be the exporter of bis own
productions ; and if so, should their exportations
not be made from our own ports? Could riot
the planter thereby avoid much of the interme
diate agency which so heavily taxes his produc
tions, and of Bourse diminishes his receipts.
Many of you, gen'lemen, arg planters, and un
derstand your own interest, and will no doubt
pursue it.
Our commercial, next to our agricultural in
terests, wiM then be the subject of your action.
The policy of a direct trade is before us, and was
the main questi On of the Baltimore Convention. I
Would It not be wise to encourage our commer
cial men to export our productions and import'
onr foreign supplies directly from our own ports’
I think the laws of trade will regulate this, but
not until we improve the facilities for the trans
portation of our products to our own ports and
habors, a-d cause those port, and harbors to be
improved. And for this purpose our attention
should be directed to the propriety of claiming
of the General Government, such appropriations
as may be necessary to remove all obstructions
at the mouth of the Mississippi, the great outlet
of the West and South-West, and in the other
ports of the Atlantic and the Gulf
To encourage c.ur.-..r,ervv, cpqi( dryihties, im
nriigra'ciou. s'n'J linsis of steamers should be es
tablished between om ebiei poiu, somii Ameri
ca and Europe, and for this purpose the South
and West should ask from the General Gnvern-
ment the same aid which has been granted to
certain companies in our Northern ports.
The important subject of encouraging mart:
factures is legitimately before ;.nd ffie pro
position will nn doubt be considered, what means
shall be adopted as best calculated to stimulate
our people to make investments in this gr»at j
source of natural prosperity, and thereby produce i
a division of labor, which will encourage agri
culture. gnd increase our population, ami remove
much of our dependence upon other States and
nationa. Can we not, gentlemen, increase our
wea'th and independence by judiciq.j, or g n j Z a.
tions o! the m««»« 'wmch a kind Providence has
placed us in possession? Shall we slumber
longer? Certainly not. Let us develops our
beautiful and unequalled inhyrjUncc—ue/ofebur
energies to the expansion of our Agriculture, our
Commerce and our Manufactures—promote in
dustry—encourage our people to the education
of tbeir children at home with the wealth we
extend abroad—maintain and erect school houses.
Academies, Colleges, arid Churches, at home,
suitable to all our necessities—establish p,es.es
to sustain our interests and or.r policy, our great
confederacy, and the constitutional rights of the
States, and let us unite harmoniously to secure
commercial and industrial importance at home.
And then let us patriotically end by construct
ing the great work of the age and the world, the
Pacific and Atlantic Railroad, with such bran

j the lion. John Bell, on behalf ol the Committee
of Vice Presidents, who were instructed in the
| forenoon to report as to the manner in which
the vote of the Convention should be taken, of
fered the following resolution:
Resolved. That on all questions which may
| arise in this Convention the vote shall be by
States, each State represented casting one vote.
There being no dissent, the report of the com-
I rniltee was declared accepted.
Col. Oakev. ol Lmisiana, then moved that a
j general committee be appointed from the dele
gates of each State for the purpose of presenting
j to the Convention what subjects it shall act up
: on and the older in which such subjects shall he
i taken up. After some little discussion, this mat-
I ter was carried.
J S Bvrne. Esq . of Mississippi, moved that
the Chair appoint, a Committee of three to take
charge of the printing of the Convention ; which
j being carried, the Chair announced that such
; Committee would be appointed in the morning,
i The Convention then took a five
; minutes, that the del gates from toe different

mittee was as follows :
i Alabama—L. Troost and G. P. Beirne.

The next motion was from Mr. Chambers, of
St. Louis—“ That every gentleman, in rising to
address the Chair, should give his name, and
each delegate should sign every written resolu
tion presented to the Convention.”
The Chair suggested that this motion was un
necessary, as he believed that the importance of
doing this was so clear, that the delegates would
need nothing further than the suggestion of the
Chair, to induce them to act as the motion der
sired.
On motion, Mr. Hamilton Smith, of Indiana,
was elected one of the Vice Presidents of the
I Convention.
Luther M. Kennett. Esq , of St. Louis, then
suggested, that inasmuch as there was no im
portant business before the house, and as he un
derstood that Gov. Foote was then in the hall,
but intended soon to return to Mississippi, that
he be invited, through the Chair, to address the
Convention upon the general objects for which
it was convened. This was opposed, on the
ground that aiCommittee had already been ap
pointed to declare what matters could legiti
mately corpp before the house for discussion.
On motion of Mr. Baylor, of the District of
Columbia, the committee on the preparation of
business retired to deliberate.
After this committee had retired, there were
louil cheers from all parts of the house for Gov.
Foote. This distinguished gentleman uy invi
tation came upon the stand, ai d made the follow
ing apology for not complying with the wishes
of the meeting:
“ I assure you. gentlemen, I am truly grateful
for this unexpected manifestation of your esteerp
I came here to witness your proceedings, and
this call is something I had not looked for. I
am engaged in duties across the line which now
occupy my attention, and which I deem impor
tant to the country. Were Ito undertake to
address you. I am sure I should disappoint you,
and fall far below the dignity of the occasion.
I nevertheless return to you my most sincere
thanks for your kindness, and ask you to allow
me to decline the honor of accenting the invi
tation to address the Convention.”
The meeting then adjourned till 9 o’clock to
day.

Battle -with Electric Eels.
The marches and standing waters near Cala
bozo and the Orinoco, are filled with electric
eels. It is difficult to catch these eels with com
mon fishing-nets, as thev bury themselves in
the mud. The Indians fish them with horses
and mules, which are driven into the water.
The noise occasioned by the stamping of the
horses drives the eels out of the slime, and irrij
ta'es them ; they swim on the surfape of the
water, and press themselves against the b»lly of
the mules and the horses. A strange comhat
now begin,; the Indians, provided with long
thin bamboo canes, encircle the ditch ; some
climb the trees, whose branches extend horizon
tally over the water. By wild screams and
threats with their long canes, they prevent the
horses coming ashore, and escaping. The eels,
terrified hv the noise, defend themselves by the
repeated discharge ot their electric forces. }t
seems for a time as if they would carry off the
victory over the horses, fqr npany of the latter
succumb to the force of the invisible electric
blows, which the eel, give on the belly, the most
sensitive part, and they sink beiow the surface
overcome by the shocks. If one, escaping from
the shocks of the electric eel, reaches the land,
it falls at eve y step, and sinks down on the
land faint and exhausted. In the first five min
utes, two horses were already drowned The
eel. which is five feet long, preisys against the
belly of the hors", ..mi discharges its electricity
along its whole length, which etuii the abdo
men, entrails, and heart of the horse. jEne In
dians maintained that if the horses were (ti iyen
into the waterol ole- trje eels on two consecutive
days, nope would die the second day. The eels
now timidly approached the shore, where they
were caught wi'h little harpoons attached to
long ropes. If the ropes were perfectly dry. no
electricity was felt while hauling out the fish, j
but it was communicated through the wet ropes.

Liverpool, May 27.—At tho date of our circular
advices per Arabia on the 20th inst., our Cottor
market closed steadily with some symptoms of in
creasing demand; and estimated sales of that day
of 8000 bales. On Saturday a very firm stand
was made by holders, and some grades wore mor<
sparingly offered and of difficult purchase at th<
quotations, which restricted the business to sales o
7000 bales. Tho Canada arrived on Sunday, and
her advi e- tended to confirm tho extreme preten
-ions of holders in the business of Monday, but a
check was given to speculative operations by tb<
mnouncement of political differences existing be
tween Turkoi and Russia, which also slightly af
fectod tho public fund.s and gave rise to a spirit ol
caution. This fooling has more or less influenced
the daily transactions since, notwithstanding the
accounts of tho trade in Manchester are mort
encouraging, and the advices per Pacific, to hand
on Tuesday evening, are calculated to strenglher
tho position of importers. The business this wook
■ s reported nt—Monday 7000, Tuesday 7000, Wed
nosday 5000. Thursday 7000, the market wearing
1 quiet although a steady appearance at tho close
but with free offerings and prices sc treely so buoy
■ nt. as on Saturday last, and it will be noticed by
reference to returns thatagcod portion of the sales
tiro comprised in other than American descriptions.
Tho total sales of tho week amount to 64,540
bales, of which 6380 are to speculators, and 2750
to exporters, and include 2390 bales of American
of which 8210 are to speculators, and 9310 are to
rters, leaving 42,410 bales of all kinds to the
trade.
. no import for the same time is about 83,657

Havre, May 2S—Our Cotton market at the
close ofour preceding circular wore rati or a dull as
pect, and after tho receipt of tho advices by th-
Arabia, showed no symptom of animation, the sales
on Tuesday and Wednesday averaging little men
than 1000 bales daily, solely for consumption, but
it well supported prices for good descriptions On
Thursday wo were put in possession of despatches
by tho Franklin which not being qf a tenor to ere
ite any now feature of importance here, the saiei
on that day amounted to about 1100 bales, with
rather loss firmness in prices. On Friday, how
oyer, there was some degree of spirit manifested in
ho demand, chiefly directed to the low and infe
rior Cottons, which for some time past had been
neglected, and of whio the prices wore relatively
ower than ot or kinds, and the salei, amounted t.i
about 2000 bales, prinointilly for Alsace. But at
the close o’ 1 the week our market, again rolaps'd
into a dull stale the sales on Saturday not oxcecd
ng 600 Lalos, in 1000. without, however, any ma
'erinl difference tr> notice in our quotations. The
advices from tho United States, received on San
day, via Liverpool, wore upon the whole little cal
culated to p’ oduco a favorable feeling hero, and at
'he opening of this week business wot extremely
limited, tho sales on Monday nq( reaching beyond
300 bales. Yesterday after the reeeipt of our cor
respondence, via Southampton, tho same want of
»p rit continued to predominate, only 350 bale
having found buyers at our quotations annexed.
The sales during tho past se’nnight. therefore,
amount to only 6194 bales, mostly in Vnitod States
Cotton ; bu' as th? idipovt may reckoned at
