Mrs. Bryan, Editress of the '“
fWcr, discusses the adoption of knee
breeches (by the men only,) and pro
flounces it a “ refreshing” innovation
to those who have finely shaped calves ;
to the spindle-shanked, the kind Edi
tress offers to loan some of “our surplus
padding.”
The Editor of the Intelligencer , who
evidently thinks he cannot see too much
of the ladies, seconds the motion, and
amends by proposing the adoption of
the Bloomer costume by the ladies as it
tends to the same end, namely, the dis
play of calves.
Both our cotemporaries may lie accus
ed of carrying fashion to extremeties.
Blackberry Wine.
This wine, if rightly made, is to our I
taste, better than any Catawba that
ever came from Longworth’s cellers,
vud we have been at the trouble of pro
curing the following raceipes for its
manufacture from one who knows all,
about it:
To Make Blackberry Winb.—To one j ]
gallon of blackberries, add one pint of' \
boiling water, let it stand until it be- i
gins to ferment, then press off the liquid ; 1
and add a half poimd of the be6t; j
brown sugar, putin a cool place until j,
fermentation has nearly ceased, which ]
will be in eight or ten days, according i
>o the temperature of the weather, ]
then cork up the vessel closely until I j
fall, when the wine should be bottled. ]
Be careful to cork the vessel before the j (
wine be<x mes too acid, even should the i ’
fermentation be rather active. I'
The above receipe makes the best I
wine, but the following is more approv
ed by some as yielding more wine and i
nearly as good. 1
To a gallon of juice pressed from the ]
berries, add two quarts of water, and
three and a half pounds of sugar, and i
proceed as in the fiist receipe.
Any body who drinks wine by itself j ]
stands in some danger of becoming aI,
“guzzler,” so here is a recipe for ma- i
king something good to eat with it. <
To make good mock mince pies—mix '
one cup of sugar, one of molasses, one
and a half of bread crumbs, one of ci
der vinegar, one of seeded raisins, and s
four of water, three eggs, one ounce of (
•loves, one ounce of soda—this will
■ake material enough for three pies.

Crop Correspondence.
Auburn, Ala., June 7th, 1859.
Editor of Dispatch: —l have just return
ed from a trip into Chambers county,
and have given very particular atten
tion to the condition of the crops in
that region. lam under the impres
tion that unusual*? lIU S e amount ei
•otton has been planted this yeaT. On
one point of my route the ootton fields,
one after the other, stretched off into
the distance as far as the eye could
reach. I conjectured that there was two
miles of solid ootton bes jre me. It was
a rich and pleasing sight.
In general the plant is quite small.
Whe severe drought and cold nights and
mornings have retarded its growth.—
The continued dry weather was oausing
•erious apprehension in the minds of
the farmers until on Friday evening 3d
inst., when we were visited by a suc
cession of copious showers. Just at
night it wound up by a thorough ground
eoaking rain. On Saturday morning
•very cloud hail vanished from the sky
and the faces of the tamers.
The corn I found looking tolerably
well,but I think there is entirely too lit
tie planted for a supply in case there
should occur a short crop.
On some plantations the oats were se
▼erely atfccted or ruined by the rust.—
On others the rust had done no materia
damage. One tanner had cut his oat
as soon as they had begun to turn aui
tcred them like hay. They were ver
■ice. My horse relished them much.
The gardens were in woful pight unti
fee rain on Friday.
The new wheat has been brought t<
mill and is found of good quality.
Special Correspondence of the Dispatch.
Bomb Ga., June 9, 1859.
Editor Dispatch l have but little rrewi
to-day. Everything seems to be quiet.
Our merchants expect a good trade as
•con as the wheat crop* begin to come
The steamer Cherokee arrived last
mght, and I understand the river re
ssain* in good boating order. The mail
mute from this place to Jacksonville,
Ala., (fourhorse coaches) has been dis
•ontinued, though, I loam, Col. Powell
will continue to run tbe line, so the
traveling public will not suffer by the
mail being discontinued. Our Tax Re
ceiver says (so I am informed) the taxa
ble property of this county will hi
about one million of dollars more thi
year than what it was last. Judge C
H. Smith, of this county, deserves cred
for bringing about this increase in th
baxes, by examining the returns of l&t
year, and having several to correct thei
returns, and intimating to them tba
they would not get off so well again.—
Bo much for a good officer and an hon
est man.
I have no particular change in out
produce market to notice. The snpplj
of Bacon is good. Corn is scarce it

Hon. B H. Hill arrived here Tues
day evening and left Wednesday morn
tag fqr some point in Alabama. If you
know of any county in this- State, that
*» likely to suffer for the want of some
ermp&mt. self sacrificing, patriotic county
bmng man, to represent it in the next
Jaglalature, please inform the citizens
of that county or counties, they can, by
early application, get as many as they
’ need from thus county to represent them
We have more than we need at this
time, and I bar e no doubt but what
their patriotism would lead them to aban
don homes and their dear ones too,
: (those that have any) to supply the de
•'! ficiency in these counties. I feel inter
: e6tcd in their representing some coun
, i t y, for they seem to think it is a duty
they owe to their country, and unless
: they discharge that duly, and that at
the next legislature, they will prove
recreant and go down to their graves,
leaving this, our happy country, in debt
j and at war with all other nations, &c.
They aie honest, and that is reason why
[ take an interest in their behalf. If
you know of any Congressional District
that is likely to suffer for a rcpieseata
tive just inform .them we can spare a
few of that stripe also. All orders prompt
jbj filled, if we don’t have to warrent
i them good, genuine, &c. I see by the
Courier of this city, that the Americans
of this county will hold a meeting Sat
urday next.
We had a slight shower last night but
not enough to do any good.

Transport of Troops by France.—A
correspondent of the New York Com
mercial Advertiser, writing from Genoa
under date of May 17, says :
It is truly astonishing to witness the
celerity with which the French trans
port their troops and munitions of war.
Four steamships arrived at Genoa in
the morning at 10 o’clock with 7,000
men, 000 horses, and 70 pieces of ar
tillery, and by 4 o’clock in the after
noon they were off again to Toulon for
another like freight, This is only a
small specimen of what Louis Napoleon
has done and is doing. The English
men here are amazed at all this, and
well they may be, for if Napoleon can
in forty hours plant 60,000 men, and
artillery in proportion, in Sardinia, how
long would it take him to place 100,-
000 men on the shores of England, f
with a navy quite as efficient as that of
Great Britain to protect them?

The Urge cotton house here referred
to, has done an immense business, anu
by its enterprise has contributed large

Nkw York, Juoe 6—A letter from
Pernambuco, of April 30, says a most
fearful storm swept the Southern coast
of Brazil on the 13th instant. It is rep
resented to have been terrible in the
oxtreine. The whole coast, from Bah'.u
i Southward, is lined with wrecks. The
damage is enormous. The loss of life
is frightful. A Brazilian frigate went
down with over 400 souls on board ;
only forty were saved.
The Yellow Fever iz worse in Rio than
it has ever has been known. People are
dying by the thousands. Its devasta
tions among the shipping are unparal
led. One English brig had buried five
captains, and the sixth was not expect

> Tin Thousand Dollars Additional
r Paid to JonN A. Washington.—From
the Secretary’s report in the Mount Ver
non Record, we observe that another
7 instalment of 110,000 has been paid
1 over by Mr. Riggs, the Treasurer, to
e Mr. Washington. Out of $200,000 pnr
chase money, only about $30,000 now
; . remains to be paid. But, “apart from
the sum requisite for its pioper mainte
~ nance and safe guardianship, the Re
gent ascertained from reliable sources
* that it will require about $20,000 to re*
d store the grounds and make the repairs
y necessary to arrest the rapid decay now
going on.” Therefore, the Regent will
not be able to authorize the cloging of
'* the last payment until a sufficient sum
has been secured to cancel the instal
o rnent and to meet the responsibilities
assumed as soon as the purchase is con
cluded.
Was there ever a plan of woman’s so
admirably conceived, managed, and,
6 carried so completely onward to success
as this? Herculean though the task
seemed but a few months a:o, the Re
3 gent has parried all opposition, and the
8 great results already accomplished pro
t claim more eloquently than tongue can
. speak or pen write. Every State in the
j Union, if we mistake not, excepting
South Carolina—which has surely done
> enough in giving us the chief officer,
-for it is the native State of Ann Pamela
i, Cunningham, the Regeut—has a Vice
, Regent; and in each of those States a
beautiful system of management is pur
sued, and which will be better under

List of Killed, Wounded and .Vis-sing.
**♦*«
We briefly alluded, iu our paper of
yesterday morning, to the explosion of
the steamer John (i. Lawton, which oc
curred at a place called Gum Stump, 20
miles above the city on the Savannah
1 river about 8 o’clock, Thursday even
, ing. ' The Lawton had stopped at a
curve in the river, to allow the steamer
Excel to pass on her way to this chy,
and the explosion took place after the
latter boat had passed about 30 yards
beyond her. While the boat was sta
tionary the engineer had gone up to his
supper, having examined the cocks, and
telling the fireman not to increase bis
fire. After the Excel had passed it was
discovered that the engine had been
stopped on the centre, and it was while
they were endeavoring to put it in mo
tion that the explosion occured.
Early yesterday morning, the steamer
Swan was dispatched up the river to the
scene of the disaster, with Dr. Fish and
othor gentlemen on board, but, after a
diligent search,they were unable to find
any of the bodies of the killed. I pto
this time but one body has been recov
ered—that of James Strobhart, son of
Mr. H. J. Strobhart, of this city, who
was found in the march, still living,and
died after being taken on board the
Excel. Eight bodies, including those of
Capt. Keebler, Mr. JolmS. Montmollin,
and Mr. Goette, of Barnwell Dist., S.C.,
have not been found. The boat sunk
shortly after the disaster, and, with her
cargo, will prove an entire loss.
Below we furnish a corrected list of
the killed, missing'and wounded :
KILLED AND MISSING.
Captain TG Keebler, missing.
John S. Montmollin, of Savannah
missing.
Master James Strobhart, died on the
steamer Excel.
Washington Goette, of Barnwell SC.,
missing. , ,
Wm Grant, deck hand, missing.
John Vi illiame, pilot, (colored) mis
sing. ...... !
Joe Stone, Fireman (colored) missing.
John llobertson, waiter, “
Colored deck hand, name unknown
missing.
No reasonable doubt can be enter
tained that such of the above as are mis
sing, were killed instantly.
WOUNDED.
MissG. Morrell, Savannah, foot much
injured by jumping from boat into a flat
alongside.
Mrs. Hindley, badly scalded.
Mrs. Strobhart, leg injured from jum
ping on flat.
Mr. H J Strobhart, of Savannah,much
bruised and scalded, and had several
ribs broken.
Mr. Augustus Osmond, badly hurt
had oue eye knocked out and the other
badly injured, and his head fractured
He was picked up under a cluster of
trees. [Mr. O had two negroes on board
one of whom is missing and the other is
uninjured]
S Hindley, engineer, badly scalded.
Thos Shea, deck hand, badly scald- I
ed.
Jane Fleming, (colored,) stewardess,
badly scalded.
William Fleming, (colored) steward,
bruised.
Stephen Ott, (colored,) cook, badly
scalded.
Harry, (colored,) belongs to Mr. Ge
nobly. badly ec&Uled.
Three other colored boys, whose
names we did not learn, were badly in
jured, one of them receiving a severe ;
wound on the head and another in the
breast.
Mr. Joseph H. Morgan, the mate of
the boat, and two deck hands, were the
only hands on the boat uninjured. Mr.
Morgan deserves much credit for his at
tention to the wounded. But fpr his
extraordinary exertions we learn that
many of the ladies on board would, in
: their frenzy, have thrown themselves
into the water and been drowned.
In our hurried notice yesterday mor
, ning, we omitted to mention that Dr.
Fish was also in attendance on the
wounded.
We learn that Mr. Osman, who was
taken to the hospital yesterday morn-
L ing, is doing well, and that hopes are
3 entertained for his recovery. We have
not heard from the wounded negroes,
I two of whom, Thaddeus Winkler, and
the man belonging to Mr Genobly, it
is thought cannot survive their inju

! Jackson, daughter of Stephen D. and Mary J.
Jack-on, of Monroe Co.,Ga., aged IT years.
Tliis young lady was cn a visit to some friends
in this city when she was violently attacked
with Pneumonia which terminated fatally after a
'few days continuance. She had always been
amiable in her disposition, and exemplary in
her deportment, but had made no profession of
religion. For several weeks before her last ill
ness, she had expressed to her more intimate?.
| friends, a lively concern for her soul’s salvation. ;
This interest was deepened into penitence dir i
! ing her sickness and her surviving friends cher
iished the belief, that God was merciful in the
i forgiveness of all her sins. Her end was peace
ful and only a few houfs before her departure
she expressed her entire resignation to the m
‘ vine will. She was kindly cared for, not only
, by the relatives who ministered around her sick
’ bed—but by mauy sympathising friends who
had learned to love her for her many good qual
ities of mind and heart. Her remains were at
i her own request removed to the homestead in
Monroe county for interment.

1 1 whole apparatus. This is eflected by the drip |

in use during that length of time, as their certifi

before the public.
The improvements recently added, by which ;
THE MOST PERFECT VENTILATION is insured, j
a great saving of ice has been obtained, more j
frigid air produced, and durability eflected, ccr-,

GALVANIZED IKON has been substituted for
the shelving in lieu of /.luc. thereby enabling us I
to offer them entirely free Irom oxycizalion and I
corrosion, and consequently void of that disa

in other Refrigerators. In addition to their be
