Grbmiiig Jlispatcb. AXJCKU BTA. q-A: 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. New York Day Bonk. This excellent sheet has been enlarg ed, and Mr. George W. Coney, Jr. oi Charleston, has become one of the Edi tors and Proprietors, who will assuu e the duties of the literary deparlment < i hat paper. [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. Yours, A.

The bill introduced by Mr. Kennedy to establish a mail steamship line be tween New York, Philadelphia, Balti more and Europe, was read twice and referred to the Post Office Committee. Mr. Douglas, from the Committee on Territories, reported against the present organization of Dacotah. Mr. Seward called tip the resolution respecting the adjournment, and called the yeas and nays, and on agreeing to the House amendment, proposing to adjourn on the lOtli instant, and was concurred in—yeas 20, nays 27—conse quently both Houses will adjourn on Thursday next.

The House, immediately after organi zing, proceeded to vote oil the bill con firming actual settlers in their right to pre-emption lands in Illinois, which was passed. The Seuate amendment to the Diplo matic auit Consular bill, striking out the proviso confining appropriations strictly to the fiscal year ending oil the 30th June, 1859, was concurred in by the House. Mr. Maynard, from the Committee to examine the accounts of General Cul lom, late Clerk of the House, submitted a partial report, in which it is stated they embrace expenditures between one and two millions of dollars. They have examined seventy-seven witnesses alrea dy, and, not being able to close their labors, ask leave to sit at the next ses sion, and then submit a final report.— Agreed to. Mr. Bocock asked leave to introduce i bill authorizing the Secretary of the Navy to cause to be constructed, with out unreasonable delay, by contract, or it the navy yards, ten propeller sloops of-war or dispatch vessels, with full steam power and draft of water not ex ceeding twelve feet, equipped and arm ed both for speed and war steamers ; and also one side-wheel war steamer of draft not exceeding eight feet, armed aud equipped for service in the Chinese seas—and appropriates one million two hundred thousand dollars for the pur pose. Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, inquired how much they would cost ? Mr. Bocock replied that according to the estimates of the Treasury Depart ment they would cost one million three hundred thousand dollars. Mr. John Cochran gave notice that he would offer an amendment, increasing the number of vessels to twenty. Objection being made to the introduc tion of the hill, Mr. Bocock moved n suspension of the rules, whicli failed— ayes 127, nays 66—not two thirds. Mr. Harris, of Illinois, gave notice that he will, to-morrow, call up the re port of the Committee on Elections in the Maryland contested election ease— Whyte against Harris. The House passed the joint resolution giving a construction to tiie second sec | tion of the act of February 3, 1853, (continuing half pay to certain widows and orphans of officers of the Revolu- I tionary army, by which the pay will j commence on the fourth of March, 1848, j involving an expenditure of a million and a half of dollars. The House proceeded to the consider ation of private bills. The prospects of the crops in Spain and the rate of duties have closed, for the present, the export of flour from j this city to Spain. We are pleased, however, to record the opening of a new direction of export in flour, as a cargo of 1908 barrels and 400 sacks was cleared yesterday in the Spanish po lacre Paula, Maristany master, for Mon ' tevideo and a Market in South America. The cargo was “superfine" and stiper | fine extra, and was cleared by Messrs. Poujaud & Salas, being the first cargo of flour on a Spanish bottom for a South Amorican port.— Charleston Courier, bth inst. THE LATEST NEWS. BY TKLEGRAPH- Charleston Market. Charleston, June 7,1 P.

We were waited on this morning by Capt. Kelly, of the brig Emma Eager, from Havana bound to Matanzas, to load for this port. On the 18th ult., off .Matanzas about 2 P. M. while going in to that port, the Emma Eager was board ed by an English war steamer between 200 and 300 tons burthen, name un known. After coming on board, the British officer asked where the E. E was from, where bound and the charac ter of her cargo, to all which questions appropriate replies were made. The officer asked, why Capt. Kelly did not heave his topsail aback. The reply was that he did not think it proper to do so. There were no further questions asked, and no search made or examina tion of papers. The Emma Eager then proceeded on her voyage. —Charleston yews, oth inst. *•« Appointments by the President. Calvin L.
