Monday Evening, Jane 7, 1858.
Affair, In Washington and Kew Or
leans.
By our telegraphic reports it will be
seen that affairs wear a gloomy aspect
in both of these cities, and much trou
ble, if not blood-shed,is anticipated be
fore their charter elections are over
with. We hope for the best, however,
and that the movements of both par
ties, which looked so threatening at
our late advices, may be the means of
preserving order.
The Styx and Fulton.
There was considerable stir in,M ash
ington and New Fork on Wednesday
last, caused by a rumor that the button
and Styx had had an engagement, and
that the former had been sunk and all
handson board perished. It turned out,
however, that there was no truth in the
report, and the excitement soon died
away.
Crops.
A gentleman from Fauquier county.
Virginia, informs the Washington Unioi,
that the wheat crop in that county ha>
been greatly injured by the joint worm
and the fly. Not much more than hall
a crop will be harvested. The wef
weather has nearly destroyed all pros
pects for fruit.
A letter from Terre Haute, Indiana,
states that the farmers in that neighbor
hood are almost drowned out, not over
half the corn is planted, and a great
poi tion of that which is in the ground
will have to be re-planted—it is probable
that the com crop will be almost an
entire failure. Wheat, oats, barley,
&c., look very promising, and the pro
bability is that there will be an extra
crop.

[Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.]
Charleston, S. C. June 5,1858.
The city is fast being thinned out of
people. Hundreds are leaving daily,
by the various routes of travel, for mote
northern latitudes to spend the summer.
Most of those who habitually reside at
Mount Pleasant, and on Sullivans
Island during the summer months, have
already removed there, and the little
steamer Osiris, which plies regularly
thither half a dozen times each day, is
well patronized. In fact, I do not
know of a more plcasaut sail than that
to the Island and back, anil that too
for the very trifling sum of twenty-five
cents. The steamers Keystone Shite, for
Philadelphia, the Westernport for Balti
more, the Atlanta and Columbia, for New
York, sailed for their respective ports
this afternoon, crowded with passengers;
and freight. I learn there was not a
vacant berth in either ship, and the
Keystone State took some twenty without
berths. The Philadelphia Steamer is
well patronized. Excursion tickets are
issued for the low price of twenty-five
dollars, whicli takes the passenger to
Philadelphia, permitting him to return
at any time he may chose. The old
line to New York still keeps its price of
twenty-five dollars each way. There
is need of one more line, and that to
Boston. Were that done, we should be
well supplied with steamers plying be
tween all the principal northern ports.
Business generally is falling off. —
However, the retail stores are well filled
with buyers, especially A. F. Brown
ings dry-goods store in King St. The :
benefit arising from advertising liberal
ly is well illustrated in this case. Take
up almost any paper published in this
State, and uinong the advertisements,
the first word that meets the eye is
Browning’s, in large capitals &e. &c.
The Campbell Minstrels sailed for
New York to-day, with the intention of
playing for a few nights in Western
New York, and going to Europe in Au
gust. Their performrnces here, closing
with last night, were attended by crow
ded houses. The gallery of the Carolina
Art Association is constantly receiving
new additions to the paintings on exhi
bition, and well merits a visit from
every person who comes to the city.
Three trials for murder have been be
fore the Court of General Sessions, du
ring the past week. In the case of Mrs.
McKewn, charged with the murder of
her slave, the jury returned a verdict
of manslaughter. Jas. Hayes, charged j
with the murder of Colin Campbell,
(both seamen,) was found guilty. J. H.
Eieckles, charged with the murder of
H. Lindstedt, was returned not guilty
Lindstedt was a clerk in a grocery,
corner of Mary aDd Nassau Streets,
owned and kept by Eieckles. They
both occupied the same sleeping apart
ment, and on the night of 30th March
last, a little before 11 o’clock the pris
oner paid he was waked by the report
of ft pi tol. He called to the deceased,
and upon receiving no answer, he called
to a Mr H. Dryer, who resided in
same building, and who came down
with a light, when the deceased was
discovered with a discharged pistol ]y
ing partially on the breast and partly on
the left arm. Eieckles was arrested
and held at the Guard House for trial,
under the recommendation of ti#; Coro
ner’* ; my. Guy.
Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
Iwttm from New F.nglaucl.
CoNcoßn, N. H., May 28,1858.
Dear Dispatch: —l hope my long si
lence has not tended to p-.oducc any un
easiness, as to my safety; though if you
could fully realise the great difference in
temperature between this latitude, nnd
your own sunny clime, you would have
some occasion to apprehend unpleasant j
results. Notwithstanding the unseas
onable “ cold snaps ” which you have!
experienced this season, you are so farl
in advance of this climate, that you can!
not well realize a truthful compar
ison between the two sections. I jhave
in a few instances seen peas that were
“ up, ” and that is the only kind of
vegetable that is out of the ground, of
this years planting. Not half of the
farmers here, have yet planted their
corn, or potatoes; the trees are not
in bloom. The leaf of the oak is now
about as“large as a mouse’s ear,” which
is the old fashioned time to plant corn.
The season is unusually backward, and
the contrast is so great, and the weath
er and prospect so gloomy, that I am
already getting homesick.
I have not time at present, nor an
uclination, to speculate upon such a
state of things. I may at some future
time attempt to draw a comparison be
tween this section and your own favor
ed State. lam here at the capitol of
“ The Granite State," the home of
Franklin Pierce. It is a pretty little
city, and a busy place. There are about
12.000 inhabitants, and like your own
Atlanta, it is emphatically a Eailroad
town. Five different roads diverge from
this point, and their patronage alone,
will support a goodly city. The State
House is a plain and substantia] granite
edifice, with little pretensions to sho«
>r elegance, or even comfort to the per
sons of the assembled wisdom of the
State which congregates here once a
year. The Legislature meets here next
■veek, and like all other small capitol
towns, thcre-is for some weeks proceed
ng “ election,” a general brushing up,
and cleaning out, ami the city and her
inhabitants will come out next week in
their holiday suit.
There is considerable speculation as
to who will be elected United States
Senator, in the place of J. P. Hale ;
though the general impression seems to
be, that modest Jack is not yet satisfied
with liis long Congressional career; and
his friends have their plans well matur
ed to give him another term. Hale is
a shrewd fellow, and understands the
science of political log-rolling well, and
he stands more than an even chance to be
re-elected. But he will have opposition.
Jonathan Edwards, of Keen, is a very
prominent man in the State, and for
the country.. He is a Republican, from
the old Whig party ; is not as brilliant
as Hale, but has better common sense,
and is ou the whole, the best man of
the party in the State. It is no new
thing, either here or in any State, for
the best men to he beaten, and in New
j England especially, it would be the ex
ception if the best man succeeded.
But I wish to say a word about my
journey to this place. You kuow I left
Augusta at 4 o’clock, P. M. May 19th,
I have not in a long time, enjoyed so
pleasant a Eailroad ride, as that from
your place to Savaunah. The road seem
ed smoother, and there was less dust,
than ou any road I have since seen.
I was agreeably disappointed in the
appearance of Savannah. I saw more ev
idences of improvement, than I expect
ed. Instead of the stagnation, which
“Bell Brittian,” and some others have
asserted, in that city, I saw a great
many buildings in the process of erec
tion, and of the better class, 100. I did
not fail to pay my respects to our friend
Foley, of the Scriven House, and 1
found his reputation as a caterer to tht
wants of the travelling public, to be
well merited. I shall surely patronize
the Scriven House, whenever good for
tune calls me to the city of Oglethorpe,
and Foley is the “ landlord.”
You will recollect of hearing, some
months ago, of a new line of steam pro
pellers, to run between Savannah and
New York. After an inspection of the
lines—both of which left Savannah ou
the same day,—l concluded to take pas
sage by one of the new boats. 1 was in
duced to adopt this course, first, because
the fare was less—it being sls, by the
new line, and S2O by the old, —and next
because I considered them the safest
boats. I also understand, that this is
more directly a shouthern enterprise,
and therefore appealing more directly
to Southern men, and to Southern pat
| aouage. It is also true, that this enter- j
(prise has inaugurated a more popular
principle than the old Hue was
willing to adopt. Like many other en
terprises, which have grown rich on
the necessities of the people, the old
company refused to deviate from their
established rates, and thus compelled
their patrons to pay prices which were
in themselves extravagant, and which
rendered it difficult foi the merchant to
compete with other localities. The
b rsiness men of Savannah, and of the
interior, bogau to feel that their oppor
tunities were not as good as some of
their neighbors,and that in order to re
tain the trade and travel which natu
rally belonged to them, it was necessa-
Iry, to adopt a piinciple more in accord
ance with the spirit of the times ; and
that the fare and freight must be reduc
ed. Economy, and enterprise, were the
only elements requisite, in this, as in all
other enterprises, to insure success.—
Two new boats of 1,000 tens each were
at once put upon the stocks. They
should be Propellers because they did
not cost as much, and the running ex
penses were much less ; while it is ac
knorvledged on all hands, that they are
much safer, than the side wheel Steam
er. They afford more room for freight
—have less machinery, and will weath
er a storm much better. With these
advantages, added to the enterprise of
the managers, it was believed that a
reduction of five dollars in the fare, and
from 8 to 12 cents per foot in freights,
would give them a paying business, and
thus far tiieir expectations have been
more than realized. Their boats, have
proved good in every respect ; and the
number of passengers, and amount of
freight, has exceeded their most sail
guine expectations. The Montgomery,
Capt. Fred Crocker, the boat on which
I took passage, has accommodations as
good as the best, and good enough, and
I understand lies is a sac simile of the
Huntsville, her twin sister. Their own
ers, and managers deserve success, and
I feel confident that they will achieve it.
In fact, their entrepriseis already a suc
cess. Try them—you will save-money ;
be equally as well accommodated ; es
cape many of the dangers of the ocean,
and help to further an enterprise which
will benefit your sea port; and State.

We desire to call the attention of deal
ers in bale rope to the very Superior ar
ticle being manufactured at the Hemp
Rope Works at the Carter Factory, in
this city. The rope made at these works
is superior to any western article, be
cause of its being made of pure, sound
hemp unmixed with any tow, as is the
western article. {Besides (being much
stronger than the western—on account
of. its freedom from trash—it is said by
those who have tested it to be fifteen to
twenty pounds lighter to the coil con
taining the same number of yards. It is

rilllE UNDERSIGNED having secured
A the control of this valuable property, in
- eluding no, only the Hotel and Cottages of Mr.
Marks, but also the adjacent buildings of Col.
Oliver, with all the Saloons, Bathing Houses,
! Gardens aud Orchards, is now prepared to en
s terta n any reasonable number of guests in the
’ most satisfactory manner.
The reputation of the invaluable mineral wa
ters found in variety at this delightful summer
* retreat, and the extraordinary salubrity of the
e atmosphere, are too well and widely known to

that tho White Sulphur may be made, by suit
able exertions, the most fascinating retreat in
the South. I shall spare neither labor nor *»x
--j pense to secure for the place the unbounded
' popularity which nature has designed it to re-
L * ceive. My long experience in hotel keeping,
5 and facilities for obtaining the very best sup
. plies of every sort, will enable me to meet the
wishes of the most fastidious visitor.
An excellent band of music will be a part of
§ the attractions of the place, and shall contribute
liberally to tho enjoyment ol our guests. At
tentive servants shall he on hand in every de
partment, and if wc fail to please, it shall not
be from a want of the most indefatigable efforts
1* to contribute to the health, co . fort and rational
e enjoyment of all wl o come to seo us
