For Baltimore.
The attention of the reader is direct
ed to the advertisement of the steam
ship Commerce, which leaves Savannah
for Baltimore on Saturday, 19th inst.
Fine Cotton Stalk.
We were presented, yesterday, with a
CottoD Stalk, about 16 inche6 high, ta
ken from the field of Mrs. R. A. Meyer,
Beach Island. It has nine branches,
and about sixteen forms on it. This ,
Stalk was taken from the field by a pas
ser by, who was informed by the over- ,
seer, that there were many more prom- (
ising. We shonld like to hare a hun
dred acres or so of just such Cotton. If
we were unable to pick ibout, we could
afford to hire help.
Sale of the Southern Pacific Railroad.
From the Marshall (Texas) Flag, of i
the sth inst., we glean the particulars 1
of the sale of the Southern Pacific Rail -
road, consisting of the twenty miles in
running order, iron, cars, track, appur
tenances and all other property belong- i
ing thereunto, together with the rights
and franchises appertaining to the old
company. The sale took place on Tues- ,
day, 2d inst., under the deed of trust
executed sometime last summer; and ;
after some little bidding, the whole of
this vast property, estimated by hun- ,
dreds of intelligent men to be worth ,
fully one hundred millions of dollars,
was knocked off to Dr. J. M. Senders, of
Harrison county, for the sum of forty
.thousand dollars!
An injunction had been issued out (
against the purchases, but as a bond of .
$500,000 was required to give it force, i
and as that bond had not been given up
to the latest dates, it will not amount to
much.
At a meeting of the purchasers, the
following resolution was passed.
Resolved, That the purchasers of the
Southern Pacific Railroad from Dr. J. M. :
Sanders, now organize themselves into ,
a stock company, under the law of the
State, approved 29th of December,lßs7.
The following officers were then cho
sen. 1
L. P. Grant, Presiden ; Benjamin
Long, Vice President: E. A. Blanche, '

New County.
A portion of the citizens of the coun
ties of Berrien, Lowpdes and Clinch held
a meeting on the4th inst., for the pur
pose of taking preliminary steps pre-*
paratory to the formation of a new
county, to be composed of portions of
the counties named.
A N*w Article of Export.— Wo no
tice (says the Charleston Naca) as freight
by the Luconia, which sails for Savan
nah to load for Liverpool, forty-one
boxes and fifteen kegs Silver Lead Ore.
We are informed that this lot of Ore is
from the “Cameron Mine,” in Spartan
burg District, which promises rich re
turns to the owner, and has been work
ed to the depth of seventy-five feet, at
which point the vein is a fine one of four
and a half feet width.
The Stamship Columbia. —The Co
lumbia did not leave New York at her
regular time of departure, having been
detained on account of the weather.—
She left early Saturday morning, and
will probably arrive at Charleston this
forenoon.
Dissolution. — We notice in the last
issue of the Wire Gross Repot/er, that
its proprietors, Messrs. Love & Hall,
have dissolved co-partnership by mutual
consent, Dr. Hall having disposed of
his interest to his associate and co-part
ner, Hon. Peter E. Love.
Protestant Episcopal Convention.—
We learn that this body, which met at
Greenville, adjourned on Friday, after
the usual business of the session. The
attendance was full, both of clergy and
laity. Among its acts, was the admis
sion to its connection of a third Church
in Columbia, entitled Christ Church. A
motion to extinguish the existing par
ish of the Mediator, was laid on the table.
—
Death op Capt. Calhoun. —Capt Pat
rick Calhoun, a gallant officer of the
United States army, died at Pendleton,
S. C., last week. He had been in the
service for a number of years. He was
a son of the late Hon. John C. Calhoun.
It is stated that the confeience
between the English House of Lords and
the House of Commons on the right
of Jews to hold seats in Parliament, lias
ended in the former agreeing to the
principle. The result will be thatEoths
child will take his seat in the House of
Commons.
*r a very large amount of corn is
annualljaroported into Boston, mostly

New Telegraphic Invintln
The Havana Prensa says:— A tie w in
vention of the Abbe Caselli, of Florence,
promises a radical change in telegraphic
dispatching. From a mechanism and a
ndw procedure—invented by Caselli,
with power to transmit to any distance
the/oc simile and drawing (even with
letters and figures in colors,) drawn
with the pen on usual paper moistened
in a certain liquor prepared with much
strength. The transmission is possible
of 60,000 letters per hour. The trans
mission of these dispatches, or of these
engravings does not depend on the hand
of the man, but the machine, put in
motion by electric and magnetic force,
works by itself. The operator has no
more to do than to put the Sispatches
below the machine, and take it off as
soon as the dispatch is transmitted.
This procedure is most simple; the
paper on which is contained the dis
patch or the picture that is to be trans
mitted, is rolled on one cylinder, and at
the station at which it is to be received, I
is another cylinder with a roll of white
prepared paper, on which the sac simile
is produced.
If this invention is a fact, there will 1
be a complete revolution in the electric ■
telegraph.

Colton Spinning on the Plantations.
The Philadelphia North American refers j
to an experiment, described by thei
Richmond Enquirer, which has been!
made on the plantation of Mr. George j
S. Ycrger, in Yazoo county, Miss., of!
spinning cotton on the plantation where!
it is grown, by machinery attached to j
that which works the cotton gin, and I
carried on by plantation hands. On
Mr. Yercer’s place, seventeen hands, j
consisting of three old men, six women
and the rest children, work at the ma-j
cliinery, grind the meal for all the force
on the plantation, crush all the ear corn j
for the mules, horses and oxen, gin the]
cotton and spin up 450 bales of it. Be
fore Mr. G. G. Henry’s new spinning
machinery was attached to the gin* four
men were employed at it to gin the cot
ton, and when the baleing was to be
done, additional force was required.—
The steam engine then in use, to work ]
the gin, would consume three cords of
wood a day, but with Mr. Henry’s im
proved machinery, it is found that it
will do all the work with from 1 1-2 to
1 3-4 cords of wood per day. If this be
true, and the invention can lie exten
sively introduced, it will at once addj
very greatly to the profits of the plan- J
ters, besides introducing a branch of
domestic manufactures into the agricul- ]
tural interests of the South.
JIT From all that we can learn from j
gentlemen coming from below, (says!
the Memphis Appeal, 11/A inst.) the hor-l
rors of the overflow are greatly increas- ]
ing. The prolonged duration of the
. high water is softening the levees every
where, and the river isbreaking through j
at hundreds of places heretofore consid- j
L ered safe. There are but few planta I
t •
tions that are not suffering, some more,
’ some less. Even on those sections of
j. larms not overflowed, the near proximi
ty of the water is blasting the crops.— 1
The Mississippi, indeed, seems inclined
to assert her ancient prerogative and to
claim her right of supremacy over her
* primitive domain—the adjacent bot
toms. It is many a long year since she
has thus risen in her highest majesty,
and when she does subside this time, she.
, will go down with a sullen grimace,
( taunting man for his puny efforts to,
. fence her in, and leaving death, desola
tion and destruction on all her shores.

A Severe Rebuke.—Senator Davis, ol
Missisippi, in reply to Douglas, who had
t made a flaming war Bpeech, remarked :
“ That he (Davis) never belonged tc

es Ruin.,—Tin Crops,
n- Since our last issue, some portions o
the country have been visited by copi
ous showers. The crops in this vicinity
ter and the counties adjacent, were nevei
Pa- raorc promising and healthy. Tw<

section will be made, with but few ex

New York.
We ail know that this is a great city,
and that it is daily grow,ing greater and
greater. London aud Paris have had
their day r , but New York, although but
in its infancy, outstrips them both,
whether we take into view, religion,
morals or rascality-. There is always
on „the tapis some excitement. One
week it is lotteries—next, gaming sa
loons, and last, though not least, the
fathers of that great city have turned
their attention to religious matters, and
prohibiting the sale of Sunday papers
by news boys on the Sabbath. But like
all other questions brought before large
bodies, there is a contrariety of opinion
among the fathers, as will be seen by
the following proceedings of one of their
governmental boards, reported for the
Charleston Courier, by “Pink, ” who,
by the way, is a spicy writer, and al
though he sometimes serves up appa
j rently old dishes, he manages to season
i them so palateably, that those who par
take relish them.
We would advise the Common Coun
cil (and why should we not when May
j or Tiemann undertook to advise and in
: struct our Governor) to let the Sunday
: news hoys alone, and if they wish the
Sabbath to be duly observed in their
city to turn their attention to the Mon
day morning Daily papers, in whose
employ there are thousands of Journey
men printers, reporters aud others, who
scarcely know when Sunday comes
round, but are kept on a continual
stretch of bodily and mental labor from
Sunday to Sunday, year in, and year
out. The Sunday papers do no other
labor on the Sabbath than the disposal
and delivery of their sheets, while the
daily offices ate hard at work all day
with their full force, ? getting out
a paper for Monday morning. In out
judgment it is “straining at a gnatjfnd
swallowing a Cammel.” But to
“Pink’s” letter—here is the portion
| we alluded to ; it is dated the Bth inst.
While other cities are disturbed with
] Vigilance Committees and election ri
j ots, our municipal rulers are having a
i rather good time. At a meeting of the
j Common Council, last night, there were
many curious things said and done.—
I The Police Commissioners,having yield-
I ed to the demands of the Sabhatharians,
; anil suppressed the nuisance of thei
i newsboys crying the papers on Sundays, i
I one of the Aldermen, more liberal in i
his views than most people, offered in
j the Common Council Board, last night :
a counter resolution. It was evidently
! aimed at the very class who have effect
!ed the recent reform. It is in this
l style :
Whereas, the ringing of Church bells
] liasbeeome an intolerable nuisance, dis
turbing respectable and quietly disposed
people, and drowning the voices of the
little newsboys who on that day are ena
bled to gain a little money for the support
of their mothers and sisters; and,where
] as, it is no more necessary for the
I churches to have bells rung on Sundays
j to call people together than it is for,
j other public places on week-days; there
fore, i
Resolved, That the Police Commission
ers be requested to direct the Trustees
of the different churches in this city to
discontinue the nuisance, of ringing
their bells on Sundays.
, Thus it will be seen that there are
two classes, who are disturbed on Sun
! days by extraneous noises. But anoth
er matter, in connection with the Suu-
J day question, was broached. It seems
] that the suppression of the newsboy's
crying was not made a solitary case.—
The old women and men having stands
J on the sidewalks, and who retail all
j sorts of knicknacks, from poor segars to
I dirty ice cream, on Sundays, have also
| come under the law of the new police
: regulations. In sympathy with this
| unfortunate class, the President of the
Board of Aldermen putin a plea of this
kind :
Whereas, in the judgment of the
j Metropolitan Police Commissioners, it
! has been deemed necessary for the pre
| servation of the peace on the Sabbath,
to prevent the sale of fruit and confec
tionery exposed for sale on stands
: throughoutthe city.and as the Common
Council have no desire to witness the
] infliction of unnecessary injury upon an
unfortunate class, who are entirely de
fenceless, and derive a sustenance from
, this source alone ; therefore,
Resolved, That the Common Council of
the city of New York request the Police
. Commissioners to desist from the en
, forcement of any resolutions which re
late to the removal of Btands on the side
walks used and opened for the sale of
! j confectionery or fruit on Sundays,
! where the same may be owned and oc
’ I cupied solely for retail purposes, and
*| under permit from the magistrate of the
-1 district.
In the Board of Councilmen, the Sun
day question assumed a still different
aspect. A petition, signed by the store
keepers in the Eigth avenue, was re
’ ceived, praying that the unjust compe
‘ titiou to which they were subjected by
1 the Jews, who were allowed to keep
2 their.stores open on the Sabbath, might
j be stopped.
Albany.
' | We were favorably impressed witii tin
- growing importance of this flourishing
j South Western Georgia city during om
j recent visit. We suppose it lias a pop
! ulation of about two thousand, whicl
will be largely increased by the nex
•' j business season. The Court House am:
■si several other new buildings are a credi
h j to the enterprise and public spirit of liei
j ] citizens and those of her county. Wi

than astonishing : from five to 30 dwts
of the shining mettal at each successive
panful of the slate and fraced quartz
was the result. We have not been out
to the mine for several days, but learn
that it is not so good as at first, but pros
pects still flattering. We iearn that the
vein lias been prosecuted to the depth
of 40 or 50 feet. This discovery has ;
