We copy from the Charleston Mercury of yesterday, the following commnnica Son purporting to come from a widow lsdy, a resident of that city. It is a good offer, and if old Buck, had not keen in so great a hurry in sending these poor unclad, uneducated,unchristianized Africans hack to their nativesoil,perhaps to take another trip in a slaver to Cuba, , and re-experience all the horrors of their 1 first voyage, we think he would acceed ] to the proposition. She offers fifteen worthless negroes, well educated, some «lad in Broad cloth, some in Crinoline, for the like number of naked and igno rant Africans. If substituted,they would present quite a contrast to the natives and give them a different idea of negro life in America. There are thousands of other negroes in this country, about as valuable to their owners as the wid ows, which we Lave no doubt would he I, readily exchanged for young Africans. ■ 1 W T e would suggest to the Abolitionists J of the North to go in for the importa- < tion of acorgo of naked Africans, bring 1 them South and swap them off for well ? informed and well clad worthless dar- J kies—it would be beneficial to both a parties. But we doubt much if they j 1 could get the wilting consent of the lat- ! * tei. | * Mb. Kditob :— Seeing in your paper j J the arrival of some three hundred Afri- 1 ' cans at our port, and learning that our i 1 Government have no alternative but to j ? send them back to their native land |' (when the poor unfortunates desire to ! r remain here, in which, for the sake of j J humanity, we ought to gratify them,) I: am induced to apply to you for advice I r and direction iu what way I can be of 11 service, Messrs Editors, lam a lone j n widow, my dearly beloved consort hav- j ° iug deceased thirty years since, leaving j *’ me (as his sole heiress,) what would be ! considered a handsome property, viz: P several shares of bank stock, some a bonds, undoubted (for the interest was regularly paid), and about twenty ne- ] '- grocs,who were hired out at good wages j a the income of the whole of which was j n more than sufficient to enable me to live j P comfortably, and make my half yearly contributions to, the Ladies’ Benevo- j t! lent Society, Fuel and Garment Societies j of recent date, and my other eontribu- a tious tb the poor of the Church of which ' ° lam an humble member. Since the j** decease of my dearly beloved consort 1] 11 have had the sole control of this pro-! ° perty, and my great trouble is now, that j s lam unable to make my usual contri-; buttons as above mentioned ; and for j this reason, that although my dividends ! a and interest on all will be regularly |' P aill ; my expenses, personal and a domiciliary, are no greater, the income a from my negro hire amounts to almost : nothing. When I say nothing, I mean ’ no more than pays taxes, clothing and c doctor sbills. Those that always paid * punctually, in life of my deceased bus- 1 band, eight to ten, and even twelve , dollars per month, what with deduction 1 for sickness and bad weather, when, as a they said,no work could be got,only,pay ' now what will about cover the above mentioned expenses; hence I am i nable c to support myself as formerly,fur 1 must j deprive myself to enable me to do some-' * thing in support of the poor. Now, 1 gents, I wish you to assist me when i ' make this offer : I have fifteen able, I healthy negroes, whom I will exchange I for fifteen of the recent barbarians, as! i they are termed. My negroes come to < me to pay their wages, finely dressed in i expensive muslins and hoops, very much finer than what I wear myself—that is. the women ; and the men in broad cloth coats and pantaloons. Now Ire 1 if agreeable, deliver the above mentioned fifteen .negroes to the Marshal or the President, for the same number of the barbarian Africans who are now at Fort Sumter.

At the supposed end of wliat lias al ways been considered the longest aven ue of the Mammoth Gave, nine miles from its entrance, there is a pit, dark ■ and deep and terrible, known as the Maelstrom. Tens of thousands have i gazed into it with awe whilst bengal , lights were thrown down it to make its fearful depths visible, hut none ever had the daring to explore it. The cele brated guide Stephen, who was deemed insensible to fear, was offered six bun dreil dollars by the proprietors of the Cave if he would descend to the bottom of it, but he shrank from the peril. A few years ago, a Tennessee professor, a learned and bold man, resolved to do what no one before him had dared do, and, making his arrangements with great care and precaution, he had him self lowered down by a strong rope a ■ hundred feet, but, at that point, his courage failed him, and he called aloud to he drawn out. No human power could ever have induced him to repeat the appalling experiment. ’ A counplc of weeks ago, however, a • young gentleman of Louisville, whose r nerves never trembled at mortal peril, being at the Mammoth Cave with Pro fessor Wright, of our city and others, 5 determined, no matter what the dang • ers and difficulties might be, to explore the depths of Jthe Maelstrom. Mr. Proctor, the enterprising proprietor of the Cave, sent to Nashville and procur- I ed a long rope of great strength express t ly for the purpose. The rope and some necessary timbers were borne by the guides and others to the point of pro posed exploration. Tiie arrangements 1 being soon completed the rope, with a heavv fragment of rock affixed to it, was let down and swung to and fro to dislodge any loose rocks that would be likely to fall at the touch. Several were thus dislodged, and tho long con tinued reverberations, rising np like dis tant thunder from below, proclaimed the depth of the horrid chasm. Then the young hero of the occasion, with several hats drawn over his head to pro tect it as far as possible against any mas ses falling from above, and with a light, in his hand and the rope fastened around | his body, took his place over the awful j pit and directed the half dozen men, j who held the end of the rope, to let! him down into the Cimmerian gloom, ! We have heard from his own lips an J account of his descent. Occasionally masses of earth and rock went whizzing past, but none struck him. Thirty orj forty feet from the top, he saw a ledge, j from which, as he judged by appear-1 ances, two or three avenues led off in different directions. About a hundred feet from the top, a cataract from the! side of the pit went rushing down the! abyss, and, as he descended the side of j the failing water and in the midst of j the spray, he felt some apprehension that his light would be extinguished,! but his care prevented this. He was landed at the bottom of the pit, a hun dred and ninety feet from the top. He found it almost perfectly circular, about 18 feet in diameter, with a 6mall opening at the point, leading to a fine chamber of no great extent. He found] on the flour beautiful specimens of, black silex of immense 6ize, vastly larg-1 er than were ever discovered in anvj other part of the Mammoth Cave, and also a multitude of exquisite formations | as pure and white as virgin snow. Ma ; king himself heard, with great effort, I by his friends, he at length asked them j to pull him partly up, intending to stop on the way and explore a cave that he j had observed opening about forty feet above the bottom of the pit. Beach ing the mouth of that cave, he swung himself, with much exertion into, it, j and, holding the end of the rope in his hand, he incautiously let it go, and it, swung out apparently beyond his! reach. The situation was a feaiful one,; and his friends above could do noth' ng i for him. Soon, however, he vnade a! hook of the end of his lamp, and, by extending himself as far over the verge j as possible without falling, he succeeded in securing the rope. Fastening it to a' rock, he followed the avenue 150 or 200 yards to a point where he found it; blocked by an impassible avalanche of, rock and earth. Returning to the.! mouth of the avenue, he beheld an al-! most exactly similar mouth of another ; on the opposite side of the pit, but, not being able to swing himself into it, he < fastened tire rope around his hotly, sus pended himself again over the abyss, i and shouted to his friends to raise him to the top. The pull was an exceeding ly severe one, and the rope, being ill i adjusted around his body, gave him the i most excruciating pain. But soon his : pain was forgotten in a new and dread- ' fill peril. When he was 90 feet from the mouth of the pit and 100 from the bottom, swaying and swinging in mid-’; air. he heard rapid and excited words! i of horror and alarm above, and soon 1 learned that the rope by which he was] i upheld had taken fire from the friction j ■ of the timber over which it passed.— : Several moments of awful suspense toj those above, and still more awful to him ' below, ensued. To them and him a fatal and instant catastrophe seemed inevita- j ble. But the fire was extinguished with a bottle of water belonging to himself,j and then the party above, though ex hausted by their labors, succeeded in | drawing him to the top. He was as calm and self-possessed as upon his en trance into the pit, but all of his com-1 panions, overcome by fatigue, sank’ down upon the ground, and his friend j Professor Wright, from over exertion and excitement, fainted and remained for a time insensible. The young adventurer left his name I carved in the depths of the Maelstrom] —the name of the first and only person] that ever gazed upon its mysteries. Visitors at the Sew York Hotels. The New York Herald took the pains] to ascertain a few days ago the number; ,of persons at the various hotels in that! city, and found that it amounted to' nearly eight thousand, three-fourths or i more of whom were strangers proba- j bly. This seems a small number for so! large a city, but the same paper states; that about twelve thousand other visi- j tors are quartered in private dwellings. Tub Weather —We are indebted to Dr. John F Posey for the following sta tistics in regard to the weather. The j average temperature from the Ist to the 13th inst. has been at 7 o’clock A. M., j 74.7, 2 o’clock P. M. 81.4, and at 9 o’clock P. M. 77.0. On the 6th, it commenced raining and has rained every day since, except the 10th. From the sth to the 13th, 10,140 inches of water fell, the greatest quan tity having fallen on Sunday last, reaching 3,100 inches. We believe this tiie greatest quuntity which has fallen in any one day for a long time.—Savan nah Hep. 15 th inti. Singular Death.— The Pine Bluff, gentleman just elected to the Legisla . jure of that State, from Calhoun coun ; ty, died the day after tho election. It is said that he was in tho habit of re ' j marking in all of his speeches, that if j he could just be elected to the legisla ture of Arkansas, he was ready to die. Singular. Hon. Geo. W. Summers, in a card, declares that he does not “intend, un j der any circumstances, to become a can 1 didate for the Governorship of Virgi -3 u'a ' English Liberality.—A deputy ser- geat at arms of the House of Commons ' has received a serviced plate, for plan -3 ning the excursion of the members to ’ Cherbourg, and carrying it out success -1 fully.

He ran 1 away from Niagara with S6O of his em * ployer'6 money, came to Troy, spent the money in riotous living, stole $lO 1 from boarders at a house where he stop ' ped, and then made the run to Albany, ■: passed the Sabbath in the restaurants '! and then went to Pittstown, where his ■ j career was ended by an arrest. The " ] precocious vagabond is in jail. The Illinois Sen atokship.—From pre j sent appearances, we think there wili be ' no election for an Vniteti States Sena ! tor by the Legislature to be chosen in : Illinois this fall. The two houses act 1 ! separately in balloting, and the Senate can hardly fail to attain a majority of 1 i the friends of Douglas ; thirteen mem bers hold over, most of them anti-Le -1 compton, and the opposition must elect eight of the twelve to be chosen this ! Fall to secure a majority. If no elec- I tion takes place, there can he no choice j before 1861, as the sessions of the leg j islature are biennial. —Louie idle Journal. ———— ! Suicide. —Edward Tucker, the engi i neer who some years ago, as will be re membered, ran a train of cars, beloug i ing to the New Haven Railroad Com- I pany, through the drawbridge over Nor | walkjliver, at Norwalk, Conn., which I ] resulted so diastrously to human life, I J committed suicide a few eveningß since, ; in New York, by opening the veins of i one of his arms with a razor. The Crops. We have heard a great deal about | poor crops, short crops, &c. We have, just returned from atrip, in which we; I passed through Cusseta, in Chattahoo j chee county, Richland, in Stewart, thence to Preston, in Webster county, ! thence to the corner of Sumter county, j near the Glasses Mineral Spring; thence by Friendship to Buena Vista,in Marion, county ; thence by Glenalta and Hollo-1 I cae to Columbus. We do not profess to j ibe much of a judge of these matters, j but according to our judgment, such as it is, we never saw the crops finer —! peas, potatoes, corn and cotton. Ini some places we saw streaks of rust, or something else, which appeared to affect the cotton injuriously, but generally ; the weed looked flourishing. There 1 i was cotton open at the bottom ; there i i were bolls all along to the top, and* I blooms enough to make a good ci op if i | they could all mature. This was our| I conclusion from looking at the fields as! |we passed along the road. It may be! ! ! otherwise in other sections ; it may ev-! en be different in that section of the country away from the road, but we felt all along as we went on that the >, people in that part of the country had!] been wonderfully blessed, for which we 1. hope they are duly thankful. —Columbus \ Corner Stone, 1 4th, e »«+»» | The Language of Love. ] “ Dost thou love me!" asked a youth, ; < in the holiest hour of love, the first in j 1 which souls meet and give themselves j ( away. The maiden gazed on him, but, 1 answered not. “Oh! if thou lovest 6 me, speak!” continued he; but she ] ( gazed on him still, and could not.—j g “ Then I have but dreamed of happi- j ness, and hoped that thou didst love me; J but now all is over—both happiness and j 1 hope !” said the youth. “Dearest, do 1 not, then, love thee?” - the maiden then asked, once and again. ! “ But why so slow to say U?” inquir- * ed he. She answered, “I was too happy to speak, until I heard and felt they pain.” j Droves of Houses.—We have uninten tionally omitted to notice the large <; amount of horses and mules that have and are daily passing through our city. The number of droves, though some what smaller in size, are by far, more 1 numerous than we recollect to have seen at any previous season. To-day, there j ’ has already two droves passed through! our city. If the Stock growing States are as pregnant with bacon hogs as re-! cent developments proves they are with mules and horses, we need entertain no fears but that we will have an abund- , ance of “ hog meat ” another year.— , Marietta Patriot , 14 th. Hail.—A terrible hail storm visited the neighborhood of Bethnay, Ire- , dell county, N. C., on Wednesday week, doing much damage to corn and other crops and killing poultry. Hail fell and covered the ground to a depth of four to six inches, and high wind pre vailed. The extent of the storm was circumbscribed within a few miles. The Lafayette Elopement. Rev.

Some of our young friends have, no doubt, experienced this pleasant and uncertain sensation. For their benefit, and for the benefit of those who imag ine they are in possession of the pas sion, we publish below a short colloquy, j apparently, which was reduced to wrp ; | ting by thfe author—not intended for the public eye, but came into our pos- j ; session by being unfortunately dropped i I in the street: ! A woman’s heart is a curious some- i j thing, which may be, and is at times, i ]so ■ til led with contradictions, that she, : herself, would be puzzled to give an ex i planation of the inconsistencies of her own acticns; and it is a fact that, 1 whenever sympathy and gratitude are 1 the two strongest emotions of her : heart, the object which excites there emotions to the greatest degree, will , rarely fail to become an objeet of deep er interest to her. Love is invisible and undefined ; emanates from an unknown source ; is pure, holy and sacred, sub dues the giosser feelings ; love is the soul of the angels, which, like a light , from Heaven, cast a halo around us ; love is often unsuspected even when it is gnawing the hearts vitals up.

The gastric fluid re acquires Us solventpower, and theernde ’ I nutriment, which Was a load and a burthen to the sufferer, whilebisdigestive organization was 1 paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the wholesome revolution created in the system, the basis of activity, strength and health. e the nervous sufferer, while tormented liy the 1 acute, physical agony orNeuralgia, Tic-doloreux f or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter ’ rors, wakened by periodical tils, threatened with " paralysis, borne down and dispirited by that •' terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of ! nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain ' or disability arisingfrom the unnaturalcondition \ of the wonderful machinery which connects cv ' ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate beneflt s , from the uscot this Cordial, which at once calms, " invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous organization.

While it renews the strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material , which is to be subjected to their action. As an 1 appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.

To j those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible m ilady. There are many I perhaps who have so trifled with tlielr constitu j tion that they think themselves beyond the reach iof medicine. Let not even those despair.

During my sickness I was attended I by three physicians in our place, but received {no help. 1 also tried the various remedies ro- I commended for such complaints, but they af .l forded me no relief. As a last resort, I was ' persuaded to try Wis tar's Balsam, nf Wild l j Cherry , and by using four bottles I was restored I, to better health than I have enjoyed before for : i ten years. This statement may be relied upon - as strictly true. Betsey Perkin. The above certificate was given in the pre [ sence of Dr. A.

We have refer ' race to DR. SANFORD’S IXVIGORATOR, OR LIVER REMEDY, that has performed cures a most too great to believe, were it not for the u doubted evidence that accompany the testimo f nials. It is, in truth, the greatest remedy known ’ or Dyspepsia, Jaundice, or a general debilit that so often baffles the skill of our most eminent physicians. 1 Dr. Sanford has been for a long time one of the eminent physicians of New York, and it is said, most of his cases were treated with the Invigo : rator with such invariable success that he has been induced to offer it as a family medicine, and let the world have the beneflt of his discovery. If those who are troubled with debility, head ache, languor, or slow, lingering fever, wiU try a bottle, we think they might save physicians’ bills, and day?, perhaps years, of suffering.— 1 QUINBY & CO 7 Are again open for the Season.
