A correspondent of the Athens Whig, says—“ Mr. Towns, tlu* Democratic nominee for Governor i*f Geor gia, is badly treated hy his own party. All the Demo cratic papers announce him to his tellow-Citifens as George W. Towns, when in fact his real name is George Washington Buomaparte Towns. I tor one do not like to see a man thus “curtailed of his fair pro portions.” Whether it is because they are afraid that the name will kill him, or that he’ll kill the name, I know not, but still it is not fair.

O Picayune of the 21s* July Later front the tuny of Gen. Taylor* Th*.* steamship James L Day ( apt Woo*], arrived at a late hour last night from Elios, whence she sailed on the lsth inst. We are indebted to Capt. Wood for the prompt dt ivery of paper**. Coi. Reuben Davis, of the 2nd MissLss'uoi Riflemen, and Col. ri. Curt s, acting inspector general under Gen. Wool, came passengers on jfie James L Day. Col. Curtis left the camp at Buena Vista on the 29th ult. He furnished to the American Flag of the 14th inst. an outline of the news which we give below. It is the moat definite and interesting w* nave had for sometime from the army of Gen. Taylor. Papers from San Luis Potosi to the 6th inst. have been received hy the Mexicans at Matamoros. The news has not transpired, but is looked upon as favorable to tlu* Mexicans. It was reported that Gen. Scott had marched ironi Puebla and then countermarched, upon learning the r< f>tanc** to be offered him twenty-five miles from the capitol. We hav no faith in news thus half disclosed and halt kept back. r l wo teamsters in tii- • employ of the Quartermaster's Department, were drowned from on board the steamer Big liatehee on the night of the 10th inst , on her pas sage up from the mouth of the river. A collision took place between the Big Ha tehee and Lama, and the two men jumped or were knocked overboard. Copt. Hill, of the Hhtehee, and lowered his boat and made search for the men but they were not to be found. Up to the time of his departure from Buena Vista every thing had remained quiet in camp. The Mexican forces at San Lu.s were variously reported at from four to fourteen thousand. They are commanded by Gen Valencia. A march against Gen. Wool had been determined upon, but appears to have fallen through (Jen Wool received timely notice of it on the 26th uit. and made aiiangein*nis foi a hearty welcome. It was afterwards ascertained that the brigade of (Jen Minon, now by another officer,) fanning the ad vance. had approached within sixty or eighty miles of Saltillo. Heie the soldiers began to desert and dissen sions arose, which induced a countermarch, and rumor said Gen. Valencia was en route from San Luis to join Gen. Santa Anna at the city ol Mexico. [Wecan con tradict this rumor upon the authority of San Luis paper* received in this city within the last few days. These papers state Gen Valencia to he still in San Luis making preparations for tlie reception of Gen Taylor. They mention that despatches ordering Gen. Taylor to inform a junction with Gen. Scott, hy the way of San Luis had been captured, and they feel certain that Gen Taylor will march upon that place. The regular troops under \ alencia an* stated at nine thousand, and strenuous ap peals are made to tin* people to Mist in the defence of the city ] The troops nt Buena Vista (2900) are in good health* and under (Jen. Wool's command progr -swingrapidly in the “ school of a soldier.” Gen. Taylor is still ut Walnut Springs, qnfot'y await ing the arrival of those reinforcements so often prom-f ----ed nnd always delayed. He desires to go forward or bark ; thinks be bus n prospect of getting more rein forcements than nec-essaiy for mere garrison duty country, but uot cm ugh to prow cute hostile movements. He has I*l.ooo rnt .mu, 800 wagons and 8.000 mules waiting ready to move forward. The camp near Mur, designed to be the bead-quar ters of Gen. Hypping and the “ School of Instruction,” baa been selected ut the Sulphur Springs, about tim e miles from Mier, at the junction of the Alamo river with tho Rtn Grande. It is said to Is* n delightful place, ami some LftoO Hoops ate already eolfoctej there. Col.

Our latest dates from that ciiy are to the 2d of July A slip from the New Orleans Delta, of the Bid. gives Inrther rumors ol pr<*Jiminary negetiation for p *ace,aud that three commissionera had been appointed by Mexico to confer with Mr r i iibt,nt a pface eight leagues from 1 uebin. The writer ol a letter says, “ that he docs not do ibt that n treaty of’ pence would be conclu le-J nt once by tlie curnin -fo-tcry. He also says that the Peoc * i'.nty hav tiec.iine so considerable in the enpitoi, that h-.‘ think* that S.mta Anna (who is always on the side of the strongee*,) will soon pionounc * himself in favor of |M*ace. The Mexicans were still fortifying tin* city of Mexico, but the means of the government were so limit ed, that w* do not doubt that it will not be more than a day s work lor Gen Fc tt to demolish all the Mexicans have done m three months, in case they should show resistance.” Tin* Mexicans maybe disposed for peace,but we give very little credit to tueir profaasiotis. They probably want to gam time to arrange a formidable attack on j some portion of our armies. I N ws from Tampico s iys that Col. De Russey, while penetrating into th * interior with about 150 men, was attacked by a luge body ot Mexicans, with whom they luui considerable lighting. Other troops were sent to i lus relief and h’ returned to Tampico. He had 20 men killed, a:id 10 wounded. Thg Mexicans, it was Bald, lust about 150.

Our extracts are taken from Winner & Smith's European Tunes, and t harle* Wrimer's European Mail, which with other Liverpool papers we have received thiough this arrival. The political news is destitute of importance, with the exception of the defeat of M.

The steamer Sarah Santis left Liverpool for New York on the 15th ult.—met with some damage to her machinery after having proceeded sdo miles, and put back.

Corn from the Black Sea—The Semaphore de Marseilles, of the 21st instant, menuuns that 479 vessels arrived from Constantinople, from the 22d ult. to the 6th .nstant, 344 of which came from the Black Sea, laden with grain.

The Swedish government has ordered that foreign corn may be imported without paying any duty. In Germany, emigration to Ametica, on u wholesale scale, is stilt going on. The United States get the ma jority of the emigrants, and nearly ail the best, tfome villages are entirely depopulated by this emigration ma nia, and the Governments are fa-ginning to be alarmed at it. England. Liverpool, July 4 —The court has continued at Buckingham Palace, hut beyond the King and Queen oi the Belgians, and the announcement ot Her Majes ty’s intention to proceed to Scotland before the end of j the season, nothing lias transpired out of the ordinary routine. His Royal Higlm-ss Prince Waldemar of Prussia, who distiug nshed himself on the banks of the Sutlej ns an amateur soldier m the British army, arrived in this country, and on Friday dined with her Majesty. The installation of Brine** Aibeitas Chancellor of the Uni versity ot Cambridge is to be celebrat *d with great splendor on Monday next, u the presence of the and a large circle of reyal visitors and nobility. The business ut the House of Lords has been confin ed to the reception of the mass of private and seas onal Gills* usually crowded into the fag-end of the sitting, and of hearing the royal assent which has been given by commission to a great number of bills, seventy-three of which were thus constituted law* on Thursday evening last. In the Commons, some of the most prominent minis terial measures have been withdrawn, owing to the ad vanced period of the session, and the difficulty of keep ing honorable members together the eve of the com.iig general election. The Washington—The Washington arrived on die 27th uit. at Southampton. The passages fa tween Hi emeu and Southampton have mu great measure jus tified the sanguine estimate of her qualities made m New York The voyage from Southampton to Bre men was accomplished in 44 hours; the voyage from Bremen to Southampton in 46. The Washington lett Bremen on the 23th, discharged the pilot at 12 p. m ,at the uiouih of the Weaer, and steamed into SiMithamp ton docks on the 27th ult., in fine stylo. She took up her station at the eastern side of the dock* The im mense size and shipshape appearance of the veeoel tiaveexcited general admiration. In consequence of the eager curiosity expressed to view the interior, the American Consul has resolved to issue tickets of ad mission to fa* sold at Is each, the proceeds to fa handed 1 over to the Mayor of Southampton lor charitable pur poses. Messrs. Smith and Ashley, of Southampton, have completed new hot well* for the Washington; and not a doubt is entertained, that when they are fitted, she will put toith,to th** full extent, h*-r extraordinary pow er* of speed.

Company’j mentner Biuto, and the Corstnr, with one or two small vessels lor the conveyance of artillery an l troops,— the whole na val forces being under the command of Captain Me i>->ugall, the senior officer on the station. With this xpedition Sir John Davis entered the Bocca Tigris ot 9 a. ni. <4 the 2nd April, surprised the Anunghoy fotts, 13 well ns tho e on the Islands of Noith nnd South Wantong. and carried them on both side? of the river in u few minutes The guns amounting to 450. were spik ed, nnd ad the arms and ammunition collected instantly destroyed. Having thus secured n eoraninmention with Hong Kong, the expedition advanced up in the riv-*r, nnd reached Whampoa late in tfa* afternoon. All th * troops were transferred on board such ve*s*-fa ns coul! proceed up the river, ‘ir John reicficd the barrier, fbrm j <*d of *tak*s. and extending across th** river, nt 9 A. \l mi the 3d of April, and forced n passage The f.ms nt Whampoa and Wookingtap fired round allot and grape at the division un ler Colonel Brcreton. but hy his judi j cious management he avoided their eff-cts : nnd being i * Actually supported by the guns of the Piuto, the gal lant Colonel took possession of those fort*, spiked the gun*, amounting to 200 more, and destroyed nil the am munition and magazines. Tlie river being now cleared of impediments, the expedition advanced up to Canton, and here the strong fort callod French Folly waa event uully demolished like those sower il wn the river, and I the guns spiked—making a total of 670 gi in * disabled F;nce tin* preceding morning. These vigorous proceed ings reduced Keying to reason. Aft r some farther } < hin<-sc procrastination, Keying was compelled to wait humiliatingly upon the Governor, who received him nt the British (Consulate. After a long conference, Keying solicited time for consideration befote he a cored ed to the terms dictated at the point of tfa• bsyonef by <ir J**i i DiVis. Ou it**’ Gih. geneial erd.- ‘s were i**Hj.'d to I commence the attack on the City of Canton, but be tween eight and nine o'clock it waa notified that K-v ----mg bail yielded to the terms of Sir John Davis, just in time to save the city, and the assault was countermand ed. A Government notification was immediately i*u ej, of which the following arc briefly the heads : 1 At the fixed period of two years fiom this day, | the 6th of April, the City of Canton shall be opened to British subjects. “ Her Majesty's subjects shall he nt liberty to roam for exercise or amusement in the nrighlxiuring country without molestation, returning the same day,as at Shan ghai, and any persons molesting them shall be severely punished. ”3 The aggressor* of the two seamen in October last, and on Colonel Cheaney and others at Foshan on tfa* 12th of March shall be made examples of.” A space on the Honnnsufo of the river for the erec tion of warehouses, &c ; a site for anew church: and other minor arrangements, including tfa* keeping the nvi*r front before the factories clear of boats, were provi ded for. ‘1 he opinion generally prevail* that the terms of the new agreement are of such pur.iniount importance a* to justify the serious steps tafo*n hy John Davis. The deldjr of two years before tiie city of Canton shall be opened to British subjects is generally complained of a* ajU evasion and a violation of the treaty of Nankin— Gieat alarm prevailed at t’auton hy the fast accounts, and the merchants were removing their property under ’he apprehension of violence from the < hinese. In In dia. the distressing state of the dominions of the Nizam rendered it probable that the Indian Government would interfere for the purpose ot restoring order. General Taylor and his state Carriage. The extreme simplicity of G*n. Taylor’s habit* has j become p'overbial; but, like ail human beings, if the old General was not proud of Ins dress or of the pride and pomp of“ glorious war,” he had his weakness, and it and is played itself in his state carriage. Tins magnificent vehicle was one ol tlie last purchases the old s<.l iter nnde ere he started for th • wars —it was none ot these high-backed, four horse soft cushioned coat-of-arms panned *d aflnirs such as M-irtm Van Buren imports-d from England to ride in wun fa* was President, but it was, in vulgar parlance, a Jers y wagon, and one of the ugiiest and most inconveninit ones ever sent out from mat sand son State. We have no doubt that this same /agon was kepi in some little country town until n was discovered itm no one would buy it, and u was sent out to New Orleans to sell. Now old Zack look ed at it. and it st-nick U* fancy os on? of the most lux uriant,strong axil-tree,hardoeafod, low backed,fiiai-rat.t \ c * rn ®B eß ,bal ‘*ver was made , so he bought it, slipped | ll * anJ in due -ini ‘ landed it at Corpus Christi. it wis I evidently Gen. Tayloi’s pet ;fee k.*pt it standing right 1 up beside Ruigold’s and Duncan's batteries as if he | would have those sons of thunder blaze away at any body j n ° l *( was die greatest carriage that ever I w*as made. The old General was never seen in it. By many it was supposed that the top was so low that such a thing was impossible. When he started to Matamoros fiom Corpus Christi, it was made the carrier of the old Genen.l * Biu- chest, and the celebrated over coat that I £'* wounded at Buena Vista. Alter the battles of the Hdi and 9th, a change lor two hours a.ul tiuv'-. even iiimuit .H caine over his feelings—lie liad read uo doubt es General Scotts splendid m.uiary carriage”—and old Zack came to he conclusion tlrnt he must put on a nttlr giandcur, *o he got into 4is ml nary carriage, and ‘tarted l ro, n Point Isabel to Matamoros, to complete his I v cl °r]es by driving Ai ista from that town. No record was ever made when he resumed hi* old grey, but j > iore fiw? distance was c.mpiaed, a sick *ol- I diet woe in the General’s place, and lie hunsen waa n ! gain on horseback. Nottung of an exciting natutc*(*c curred to the o.d “ Jerse y carryall ” lor a ! -;g time. It wusdu y dragged about and *tatio?v>d vh re its owner cotiiii sec tuai n Was takcu cure oi nnd hone re J. it w. nt up to Moutcr. y, and finaliy down to Victoria Wlien the General was ordered back from lus march to Vera Crux, the old wagon top looked exceedingly surly, and its wheels screeched awfully. Ou this tup it met with a sad disaster. A drutiken tea,u-ter run his baggage waggon into it, tore the fund wh vis off, and otherwise laid it in ruins. Ndw, tlie old General had philosophy enough to ptck**l without reputing, tlie orders that were so humiliating to hi* pride ; hut he had not philosophy enough to pocket the destruction of j *ge carriage, ao he rode up to the unfortunate team j s tex,aiid catching hun by both euis.he sliook the fellow’s I violently, exclaiming ‘ what did you do that tor ; I brought the wagon away from Corpus Christi.” The excitement pushed away, the old General ca t u linger ing glance ut the rums of his pet, uiul left it to decay be side tiie road.—A.
