Captain rinrthen, ol the brig Wissahickon, at New
York, from Aux Cayes, whence she sailed on the Bth
inst. gives the follow ing additional intelligence from
Aux Cayes, which he was requested ‘.by the American
and French consuls) to give on his arrival. Capt M.’s
statement ol the difficulty he experienced on account
of the unsenled state of uffurs at that place, is as fol
lows :
“ l was detained during twenty-four hours in conse
quenoe of not being able to obtain my papers from our
Consul, having my clearance from the custom house,
and tit every other respect ready to proceed on the voy
a e. Iwas at his office tour limes during that day, and
reui.iin-d therefrom thirty minutes to one hour each
time. I was told that he would be home presently. I
left his office at 3 o'c'ock.P. M. and determined to
proceed without my ship papers, in the morning. As
I was going on board, a gentleman, Mr. Shoutberg,
who keeps the American Exchange Coffee House, call
ed me and gave me a letter purporting to be from tlie
American Consul; it contained all my ship papers;
also bills of lading, which I was requested to sign, that
had been entrusted to our Consul, and open letters,
which I was also requested to seal and deliver as di
rected.

ed to do .

Capt. J. B. MARTHE.v,of brig Wassahtckon :
D-’ar Friend—My situation and the stare of affairs
at pivsrtn in this country are such, that 1 dare not show
my head. <Since the establishment of monarchical go

insulting to all white citizens, and by the common herd
my lite, and that of the French Consul, has been re
peatrdiy threatened, but especially mine, as the Hay

Capt M further states—
The Dominicans had taken two villages, (which con“
tirui9 our previous advices,) burned them, and put the
inhabitants to the sword ; the villages were called Petite
Revtere and Dametnare, on the south side, and were
advancing on Aux Cayes with a body of five or six
hundred men. All the citizens were under arms. All
the stores and custom houses were closed, and business
suspended ; none but women and children in the piace ;
vessels in the harbor were lying idle. A ship of war
as seen-off the south side of the Isle of La Vache,
with all but her lower mast shot away, supposed to be
the Hay tien frigate, (the only one ;) and small coasters,
to the number of nine,oi 10, 15 and 20 tons, manned
with a most motley looking set of rabble in the shajie
of sailors, to go and fight the Dominicans by sea ; and
that without a single gun, and even without powder,
or good side arms.
Several old guns were fired from the wharf on the
eve of my departure ; at whom, I do not know, as no
enemy was in sight. They made no more report than
a pop-gun, and the General swore vengeance on the
Americans for importing such powder. Some person
present told him it was some General Taylor had used
in the Mexican war, and that be had some left to dis
pose of.
A female Miner.
The only white woman i have seen in the mines is
the wile ot a Frenchman, who came here from Calcut
ta. Bhe dresses in trowsers,ar.d wears a thin hat and
red shirt, as most of the miners do, and her hair being
cut short, is not suspected of being a woman, probably
by tie-tenth of the persons who see her. The first
utne lsaw her 1 was digging m a hole in the Mokel
may, a tew feet from where she and her husband were
wot king in a rocker. 1 noticed her feminine look and
thoughtful expression of countenance, and mentioned
it to a man who was working near me. He informed
me mat what 1 supposed to be a remarkably handsome
young man, was a woman; that she was the wife ot
the man at woik with her; (hat her husband was once
a wealthy merchant at Calcutta, and that the wife had
been accustomed to ease and luxury. Failing in busi
ness and becoming poor, the husband determined to
dig a fortune out of the earih in California, and the
wile, true to her companion, only consented w hen be
promised she should accompany him. I have seen her
at woik With ihe pick and the spade, early aud late;
tiicie is ever a thoughtlul expression on her counten
ance, but sae never seems discouraged; and yet the
unfortunate pair have liad the worst of luck, not hav
ing dug gold enough to jfoy their living. This is one
ol tint most romantic incidents that a life in the gold
diggings in Calttoi nia from time to time develops.—

Scene at the Post Office in California.
On Saturday morning, at an early hour, despite the
sir-iight-tlownw ,idness ot the rain, and the muddy,
slippery, contemptible condition of the streets, a multi
tude besieged ihe Post Office for fetters, which would
hive done honor to the intelligence ot the proudest
mciropo.is in the Union. Os course all could not he
a c. iouKxiated at once, and so “ a way ol coining at
it” was adop'ed, which reflected still more lustre on

meir ranks for three and tour hoars. “Places” near
the window were sold for five and ten dollars. All
this was done in a rain, to hear up against which

A Remedy that Cutes,
Various remedies have been offered and puffed into
notice lor the cure of diseases ot the lungs, and some
have been found, no doubt, very useful; but of all that
have yet been discovered, it is admi'ted by physicians,
aud all who have witnessed its effects, that none has
proved so successful as Dr. YVistur’s Balsam of Wild
Cherry. For asthma, shortness ol breath, and similar
affections, tt may be pronounced a pos trve cure. It
has cured asthma in many cases of ten and twenty
years’ standing, alter physicians had declared the case
beyond the reach of medicine.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Wherever tins medicine is introduced, it at once at
tains that high reputation which it so richly deserves.
What can stop its sale, when on every hand can be
witnessed its wonderful cures. The worst cases of
asthma, recent but dangerous coughs, (aud also those
that are ol long standing,) bronchitis and consumption,
(m its early stages,) are always cured by this remarka
ble medicine.
Be not deceived by impostors—Tlie public should be
carelui to get the genuine article, as the imitations and
counterfeits being put up by those who know nothing
of medicine, or of the diseases of the human system,
are entirely unsTc and dangerous.

SALE Or’ LOTS IN THE TOWN OF
OGLETHORPE.
np HE un Jersigned, being the owner of about 600 acre
|_ of Land, VV rsTof Flint river,on which the South-
Western Railroad will, for the present,and perhaps tor
many years to come, terminate, will soon have it sur
veyed nnd divided into Lots ot suitable size tor business
and private residences, and will offer them for safe, at
public outcry on the premises, on the 16 th day of Jan
uary next.
T he site of the contemplated town is in Macon coun
ty, about two miles above Traveller's Rest, upon high,
dry and < leva ted pine land, with good pure water, free
Irom lime. Ou the West side of the River there is but
a narrow strip ol second low ground, entirely tree from
marshes and lagoons.
The plan of the town will soon be lithographed nnd
copies distributed in the principal towns and cities of
the Slate, for inspection by those who may wish to pur
chase lots. An act ot incorporation, under the name of
ihe town of Oglethorpe, will be applied for at the ap
proaching session ot ihe Legislature. It is now certain
that the Railroad will he completed to that point in
time for the crop ol 1850. The grading is piogressing
rapidly, and the iron for the Road as far as Oglethorpe
is contracted lor, to be delivered in Savannah next
January.
The attention ol capitalists, and of all who may wish
to share in the business which wiil spring up in a plnce
where at least 70,000 bales of cotton will be sold annu
ally, is respectfully invited to the sale of the lots as above
specified. An inspection of thp map will show that it
is the point where the business of the great cotton-grow
ing section of Georgia will concentrate It wilt be a
trade worth contending for. Not milv will the counties
West of Flint River now furnish annually 70,000 bales
of cotton to be shipped from Oglethorpe, but the open
ing of a Railroad to that point will bring that important
and growing section of Georgia into close proximity to
a market for their produce, and will be the means of
bringing into cultivation thousands of acres of land now
lying idle, and thus the quantity of cotton produced
there will be greatly increased.
The terms of the sale will be liberal,being one-fourth
ensA.and ? he remainder in twopqual instalments of
one and two years. The titles will be indisputable.—
I have a complete, unbroken chain of titles, from the
State down to myself.

dred ue es fme Land, are now making preparations to

mediately on the load leading from Lanier to Ameri

We challenge any and all competition intermedi
ately on the South-Western Railroad, as regards its
favorable locality, the purity of its water, its health
fulness, and its prospects ahead for a flourishing and
permanent business, it i believed by competent judges
that from 7t) to 80 thousand bags’of Cotton will be
brought to that |>oint for sale annivally, and it certainly
behooves all who have capital U>invest, and desire to
come in competition for the vast trade which is mm
-1 pelled to concentrate at Cuyi.er, to examine it before
making up their minds to purchase elsewhere . All
such >ve respectfully invite to the sale of Lots ns above
specified.
Our terms of sale will be one-fonrth cash, and the
remainder in three . qual instalments of one. two, and
three years. The lilies will be indisputable We say to
