It is high time the traveling public of the South should amend their old summer habits, and instead of spending their time and money at Northern watering places, for which they gene rally receive abuse—not thanks—and turn their attention and give their pat ronage to the different popular springs in our own State, whose waters possess far superior medicinal virtues, for the invalid, and to those in search of pleas ure, agreeable and pleasant society, all of which can be enjoyed at much less expense than by a trip to the North.— The people of the South spend annually thousands of dollars at the North, which, if spent at home, would add to the wealth of many of our enterprising citizens in the interior, and in the dm course of trade the same money would find its way to our different cities, au4 contribute materially to their prosperi ty. Every dollar spent South, remain, with us, while that so lavishly throwi. away North, is gone from us forever. Several of our fashionable watering places are now open for the reception 01 company,or will be by the first of July In to-day's issue will be fouud an advei tisement from the proprietor of the Gordon Springs. These springs are an nually growing in popularity, and a, they are of easy access, and the water possess high medicinal qualities, we be speak for them a good patronage thi> summer. The proprietor has made ev ery necessary arrangement for the com fort of those who may pay him a visit -®. -> Charleston Slmitry. Last Monday's Mercury contains a no tice of the withdrawal of Jons Heart, Esq., its old aud faithful editor, he ha ving disposed of his interest in tha paper to his late partner, R. B. Riirn Esq. In parting with Mr. Heart we Lei as though we were parting with on old friend and acquaintance, but a the best of friends must part, we ca' only wish him every enjoyment in hit retirement. What Minister Lamar Thinks of Ni caraguan Veracity ?—When President Martinez determined to resubmit tin Yrisarri treaty to the Nicaraguan Con gress, after having allowed himself t< be congratulated by Gen. Lamar on its passage, our minister is said to have flown into quite a rage at the duplicity. So indignant was lie, says the Panama correspondent of the N. 0. Picayune, that he upbraided the President person ally fer his bad faith. Lamar, it is said, quoted from the Psalms of David: “Lo! I have said in mine haste, all men are liars," but he adds: “If David had lived in Nicaragua, he might have said it at hi» leisure /” * Rain in May. —Meriam of Brooklyn Heights says that the month of May of the present year thus far has furnished twenty-three rainy days, greater num ber than any one month of May for a period of sixty-nine years embraced in our meteorological records. Yankee Enterprise.— An attempt is to be made to recover tbe million and a half of dollars that went down in the Central America, although she is sunk it water over five-eighths of a mile deep and in a spot that is ninety miles fron the nearest land. UP Rev. Jas. Stacy was installed Par tor of the Presbyterian Church at New nan, last Sabbath week. Revs. Dr Wilson and R. T. Marks, agreeably to appointment of Flint River Presbytery, were in attendance and officiated on tin occasion. i«r The weather for the past four or I five days, (says the Cuthbert Reporter.) has been extremely hot. We have had several fine rains, however, which is cheering to farmers. The prospect for a good yield of corn and cotton is prom ising. IST The House Postoflice Committee I have decided to report in favor of pay ing Mr. Collins the $147,0130 withheld for the Ericsson. It is understood also that arrangements are contemplated to start that lino on the 3d of July, under an American company, who have pur chased the ships, and will run them to Southampton instead of Liverpool. Cant. Daniel Rr,m, of Washing ton, N. C., has obtained a patent for an improved method of extracting the Spirit of Turpentine from the crude ma terial, which, if we mistake not, will prove of great importance to that valu able branch of business, in all the tur pentine producing States. —#.< River at Vicksbceo The Vicks burg Whig of the 2d inst., says the ri ver at that point is swelling slowly, and now lacks about ten inches of the highest water ever known. Jjf” The Vicksburg Whig announces the receipt of a specimen of cotton yarn, made direct from the engitined staple, by the new process of Major Henry's invention. This will effect a radical change in our relations with the cotton manufacturers. A War With Great Britain. The feelings of every true American have been so much excited by the re cent outrages committed on American commerce by British cruises in the Gulf of Mexico, that their disrelish for war, particularly with our mother country, is daily subsiding, and in its stead a determined feeling seems to have enter ed every bosom, that these outrages must be put an end 1 1, not only for the present, but for all time to come, let the consequences bo what they may.— To judge by the spirit of the press in this country, of all political shades, the cost lias been calculated—the dama ges estimated—and although nearly all have arrived at the same conclusion, that at the out set we will be the great est sufferers, still as our country is young, energetic and recuperative iu its resources, our sufferrings would be of short duration, when compared to those of Great Britain in the end. A war between America and Great Britain would be no child’s play—once begun, it would be life or death to her, and ■nee more defeated by her young off hoot (which she would surely he) she nay hid farewell to all her past great iess, and will descend in the scale of lations from the proud appellation she low bears as “the mistress of the ocean, in whose territory the sun never tets," to a second if not a third rate European power, for France and Russia ire daily making themselves more and nore felt in the European scale. The members of both branches of Congress seem at last to have caught he spirit of the people, and some of hem are growing suddenly very bel igerant. Tbe war feeling seems to •e popular,.and they now are disposed to oter into it iu earnest, if necessary Ve find in the Washington Globe the ■Honing remarks made in the Senate in Monday week, by Senator Hammono. ■f South Carolina, which are short, i catesmanlike, and to the point. Mr. Hammond—l wish to say, Mr. resident, that I differ with the honor- We Senator from Georgia. I think here is much substance in these rc6o 1 itions; 1 think tbe resolutions of the i Jommittee on Foreign Relations have , ken high, strong, dear and true ground; and that if it is maintained • uuestly and faithfully by this Gov 6 rninentand by the country, they will , ocomplish all our purposes. It is not small thing to resolve that we are de* ‘ ■nuiued that England shall abandon t he right of search. I think it will pro- < ibly bring w ar. I hardly believe that ngland will abandon the right of learch without a war. 1 am not for making a declaration of ( var by indirection. If it is the inten ion of the Senate, if it is the will of 1 his country, whether we are prepared ■r not, to go into a war, let us make a ormai declaration of war. It is a rao nentous matter. Let it he done with ill proper form. If we intend to aban lon the ancient usages, if we offiit the •Feeiales" of Hie Romans, and send no uessengers for explanation ; let us at least cast the iiloody spear in due and . solemn form. I am not willing to he J iwept by the very first wave of public xcitement into so great a war as this— still less am I willing to he smuggled into it by an amendment to an amend ment. If we intend war let us declare war. 1 do not say that lam opposed 1 to it. We have just and ample f :ausc of war. We have received the I nost flagrant insults; aud I repeat that f tliis country is prepared to go into il ind will make a solemn declaration of i var, I shall not hang hack, nor will the i people whom I represent. But a war vith England will he the most momcn tons event of the last three centuries, if lot of any century since the world he s gan. lam not blind to the disasters md calamities the earlier period of it vill probably inflict on us ; yet I believe hat if England provokes us to it, she vill be rushing on her fate. It is per laps inevitable, sooner or later, and whenever she sets her time for it, that uust be our time. But, sir, let us ad lere to these resolutions ; let us give ler a chance to postpone an event, - which, whenever it comes, will change he whole face of human affairs. * i New Orleans. j We are gratified to be able to an nounce to our readers that the anticipa ted disturbances at NeWCrleans pass ed off comparatively with but few seri ms riots and but little blood shed,from j what was anticipated a few days pre- t f vious or even up to the day of election j (Monday.) It is a disgrace to the Ame- j rican name, and to American character, i that for a few years past, in most of om j Urge cities, the elective franchise could | not he exercised without danger to life i vud limb of the quieet ami law-abiding 1 citizens. It is high time a stop was put to this stateof things,and that rowdyism should be severely punished instead of 1 being encouraged by political parties,— . We are no advocates for Mob or Lynch iaw, hut there are certain circumstances under which their exercise is indispen sable to tlie common safety. , .*• A .tli-lnliclioty Present.

A portion of the car riage used by Napoleon in his solitary excursions on the Island, was taken to build the hearse that carried him when dead.

[Correspondence of the Dispatch.'] Lexixqton, Ga., June7th 1858. Mr. Dispatch :— I have never seen J in yonreolumns a communication from this quarter, and having a leisure mo j >nent, I propose to give you a few “jot tings down if agreeable. The grow ing crop of Corn and Cotton are very promising. The Wheat is being harves ted, and is injured to hut little extent so far as I can learn, or my observation has extended, by the rust. The Oats are however being seriously injured by the rust. The county is generally healthy—a few cases of illness and a few deaths of very old persons during the past week. For the past ten days a religious ex citement lias been in successful opera tion here, and several have made pro fession of Religion. The movement seems to he one of all denominations in union—and the order of the day seems to be an ignoring of everything else bat prayer meetings and preaching from seven A. M. to 11 P. M. at regular intervals. An abortive attempt was made to have 12 o’clock Court House prayer meetings, but it was no go. Such an encroachment upon the dominions of his Satanic Majesty was two bold a step for the timid, I suppose, and suc cessfully resisted by his Majesty him self! Court Houses are only fit places for Universalist Preachers and others who do not exactly conform to the hol low forms and ceremonies of the so-call ed Orthordox! But enough for the pres ent. Yours, &e., Moxtkzcma. Washington Union, in noticing the fact of Lord Napier's dispatching orders to the British naval commander on the Halifax station to forward at once to admiral Stewart, commanding her Majesty’s Gulf squadron, instruc tions to discontinue the practice of searching American vessels during the pendency of negotiations,or until specific instructions can he received from the| home government, thinks that move-1 ment may lie regarded as peculiaiiv: significant of the fact, that the residem j diplomatic agents of the Queen’s govji eminent in this country have become! sensible, at least.of the strong and ir-j repressihle repugnance of the whole American people against the exercise of any act of j urisdietion by vessels-of war; over American merchant ships. \% est Point Military Academy. The annual examination of the Cadets I of this institution is now in progress be- j foie the board of visitors appointed hyi the President. There are twenty-seven: members in tliegraduatingclass. among whom are Leroy Napier, Jr., and B M. Thomas, of this State. The Cotton Crop, The Savannah Georgian says: “The con tinued large receipts of cotton have put quite a different aspect upon the supply. The crop of last year was small, as com pared with the previous one,and up to the date of February 8, this year, the deficit was 574,1X10 bales in receipts as compared with the last. The deficit has now been absorbed, and there is an excess of sup ply of 40,000 hales over last year, and the estimates of crop are now 150,000 f bales in excess of last year, while the ; United States consumption will be pro r bably 250,000 bales less, making a sur f plus for export of 400,000 hales over last year." Counterfeits on the Southern Bank of Alabama.— Counterfeit 50's on this Bank are being circulated. Look out for i them! The Mobile Mercury gh\ s the following description of one which it has lately seen : “It is very well execu ted, with the exception of the vignette, which is indistinct, and the ’o’ in ‘so’ in the corner dies, which is smaller than the ‘s,’ We are told tiiat these bills have not been seen before for about three years.’’ Crop.* la Muscogee. Ufatoie, Muscogee Co., Ga.; )_ June sth, 1858. \ Editor Sac. Republican .—There is a greater breadth of both corn and cotton planted in this neiglioorhood, than there waslast year, aud the prospect for a greater yield of each is much more flattering at this time. Nothing ap pears to have retarded or checked the growth of cotton from the day it was planted. Frosts, cold nights, nor insects have not injured it. Its growtli has been onward and upward and I have never seen the plant present a more healthy and growing appearance. Much of my cotton is twenty four inches high —Corn is also promising an abundant yield. The wheat crop is harvested and will not yield, in this locality, scarcely half the crop that it did last year. The oat crop is a total failure. Truly yours, L. Preparatl on*. The Florida Peninsular learns that on the 27th instant, Col. Loomis received orders from Washington directing the following movements to he made im mediately, and place their ports in the best possible state of defence : Capt. Brannan’s Co. Ist Art’y, to take post at Key West. Col. Wynder’sCo. Ist Art’y to take post at Pensacola. Capt. Doubleday's Co. Ist Art’y to take post at Ft. Moultrie, S. C. Capt. Seymour’s Co. Ist Art’y take post at Ft. Moultrie S. C. Prompt measures were immediately taken to carry out the above orders. — It will thus be seen tiiat our govern ment is preparing for the worst. City Business Firms Breaking Ui>.— Ignorance, whether real or assumed, on the part of the News, never did astonish us. We have had sufficient foundation for saying that a number of business firms of Savannah will wind up their affairs to leave this city this year, and if the News lives till the close of the year he will see the truth of our assertion, how ignorant so ever he may feel on the matter at present.— Savannah Georgian, I m inst. THE LATEST NEWS. I BY TELEGRAPH- Rcenmptloii In Charleston nml Ham burg. Charleston, June B.—All of the Banks in this city resume forthwith.

New Yobk, June 6.— (via New York.) —On Saturday evening the Vigilance Committee arrested Mr. Lumsden, of the Picayune, who w;is, however, subse ; quently released. The Recorders have appointed eight hundred police in opposition to the Vi ■ gilants. Lafayette square was still in posses-1 sion of the mob.

The latest dodge is thus described : Two women promenade Broadway un til they have spotted their victim.— They address some casual remark to him. He replies, and they set forth] that they are married women—but in j consequence of neglect on the part of' their hush inds, are obliged to support; their families by going out upon thej Rtreet. The trio proceed down some dark street, and upon arriving at a fa vorable location, two men rush up and demand of the stranger what he is do ing with their wives. One of the men seizes him by the vest or throat, while the other relieves him of his watch or pocket book, the women cling to him! and seem to take his part. The robbe ry is accomplished, the men suddenly] discover that they have made a mistake. J The men having gone, the women sud denly leave, under the plea of stopping a moment or two to see a sick friend He waits until tired and then turns for home. —A r . Y. Express.
