NEWS ITEMS. oath Carolina Hail Koad and the Sabbath* At a meeting of the stockh ildura of the Sout larolina Rail Road, lately hold in Charleston [essrs. Wighlman, Smith and Cross, a committee n behalf of tho Meihodist Annual Conference, resented a memorial touching the desecration of le Lotd's Day on the Road. The followirg reao utions were thereupon adopted by the Company : R o'.ved , That it is expedient that one day in se ren should be a day of rest from labor and from bu |bines pursuits. I Resolved, That it is the senso of this meeting, Ithat all Sunday labor on the So. Ca. R. R. and its Ijbranches should be discontinued, except us regards lahe currying of the public mail aud other cases of g&mergeney, and that the Directors be requested to sffect this desirable end as far aud as soon as prue i£cabl. Extending the Area of Fueedoh.—ln the Senate of Ohio a series of resolutions have been [ecemly introduced, front which we take the follow ng as the most important : Resolved, That if it be Heaven’s will, as we hink it is, to consecrate the whole continent, with the islands of the sea adjacent thereto, to freedom, : nd to place them under the protection of our (lag, true American citizens will not murmur at the de crees of Providence, but on the contrary, wiih all other good Christians, will say, “God’s will be done.” France.—Louis Napoleon is doing things in grand style in Paris. His first imperial ball, which took place on tho 14th ultimo, was attended by two thousand guests, two hundred and forty being English. All appeared in the new Court costume of short breeches and silk stockings. The Em peror entered the ball room with lady Cowley, wife of the English Minister, leaning on his arm. The • former intimates and confidants of Louis Napoleon iare struck aghast by the formality with which |they are shut out from the Emperor. He is said to be very difficult of aecess. The Due de Tarente, only son of Marshal Macdonald, is one of his Chamberlains, and the Bishop of Yancy his grand almoner. All the public institutions have had their titles changed to imperial establishments. L The Emperor is enjoying himself like a hog in a harvest field, and no doubt just at this time thinks France is a “great country.” ft OccurATio.N of Sahara by the French. —Official in- Sjelligeace from Mr. Hive# declares tho story destitute of pouudatiou, and that the French government denies any of the supposed transaction which had taken ■pace in its name and by its authority. There was no wrench vessel-of-war at Samana at the period when the Kjccupation is alleged to have happened. HI Mrs. General Gaines, it is said, is about to enter another suit to recover the Urge amount of prop erty claimed by her in Louisiana. The suit fwifl be based upon the will of her fattier, the late ‘Daniel Clarke. I Spirit Rappings. —According to the report of the Superintendent of the Ohio Lunatic Asylum, ,The re are at present confined in that institution t wen- Hy-six victims of rapping*” delusion, the ■lumber being equally divided between males and Ifernales. I The latest intelligence from Concord is to the affect that Medary, of Ohio, will not go into the Ipabinet. P Forty-five penalties, of S2O each, have been im aposod on the Erie Railway Company, for violation |of the statute requiring the engine bell to bo rung •at the crossings. The complaint was entered by a citizen of Corning. | The Hebrews and Louis Napoleon. —lt is stated Ithat Louis Napoleon has publicly recognized the jgright of the Hebrews to the full and unrestricted Stcnjoymom of their religious opinions and coretrio fiues in France. N’ It is said that magnets or bits of load-stone are Inow used in countries subject to earthquakes, to in dicate their appronch. At such times the nmg inet loses its power of attraction in a great degree. |K Senatorial Election in Maine.— Portland, Feb. 2d. A vote was taken to-day in the Legislature for IT. S. ■Senator. Iu the Senate, on the first ballot, Fessenden, pwliig, received 18; Clifford, dem 13. In the House, Fes |ieuden_6s, Dana, dem., TO, scattering 12—no choice. I Monumental Movement. — Harrisburg, Feb, 2. The Suite Legislature has finally passed a kill making an appropriation to aid in tho erection of a Monument iu In dependence Square, commemorative of the original thir teen States and the signers of the Declaration of Inde pendence. Caloric Enuines.— The New York Express says that Captain Ericsson has received orders for about 300 of his caloric engines, hut it is not aware that he has consented to supply any large number at present. The Augusta, Ga., Banks have advanced the rate of . northern exeluinge and afff now asking half per cent premium for Bight cheeks on New-York and other north ern citics. [ Mrs. Craig.—We are gratified to see that the Senate of tne United States, on last Tuesday, amended a bill for the rolief of Moses Olinstead inserting a clause providing for a pension to the j widow of Lieut. Col. Craig, who was killed in iu July last. Mis. Craig, as is perhaps generally known to our readers, is a Georgia lady, •the daughter of President Church, of Athens |cuileg. H The Atlantic and St. Lawrence Railroad fCoitPLETED.—The rails on tho whole line of the Atlantic and St. Lawrence Railroad, from Portland I to Island Point on the Canada line, are laid, aud ; the locomotive has passed up to the Point and back. President Fillmore will be accompanied on his Southern tour by Secretaries Conrad aud Stuart, and piobably other Secretaries. The President never has been in the South-West, and is anxious to see tho great valley of the Mississippi, and iti great mart, New Orleans. Dismissed from the Army. —A dispateli from Washington says that the President has dismissed Major Kingsbury, of the sixth Infantry, and Lieu tenant Hawkins, of the Mounted Riflemen, for neg lecting a settlement of their public accounts. Col. May, U. S. A., who distinguished himself in the Mexican war, is about to marry one of the m Mtj.vea.thy and accomplished daughters of New York—the scion of one of our steam kings. Report on Commerce and Navigation.—The annual report on commerce and navigation, shows that fourteen hundred and forty-four vessels have been built the past year in the United States, meas uring three-hundred and fifty-one. thousand four hundred and ninety-f mr tons, and that our aggre gate tonnage is now- four million one hundred and thirty-eight thousand tons. Maine built last yeai three hundred and fifty-four vessels, measuring one hundred and ten thousand and forty seven tons. The Jerry Eescue Case. The New York Herald says : “Enoch Reed the colo red man whose . case has occupied the attention of the United States Circuit Court at Albany during the past week, was yesterday morning declared guil ity of assisting in the rescue of the fugitive slave Jerry, from theoffieers who had him iu charge at Syracuse. Notwithstanding the combined efforts of the abolitionists of this and other States, headed by Gerritt Smith, to save Reed and his coadjutors from punishment—and although they succeed ed iu staving off the trials until excitement upon the sub ject had entirely died away, except among themselves — tile national constitution and the Congressional compro mises of 1850 have, in this instance, been fully sustained by au enlightened and impartial jury. This is a glorious triumph of the laws of the land over those agitators who would set them at defiance. It is a triumph of the princi” pies of justice over those fanaticism, that will be apprecia ted by the masses of the country, and one that will be of infinite service in restoring that good feeling with our Southern brethern, which for a time had been disturbed by the groundless insinuations emanating from rival States and cities. y Futher by [the Canada. Great Britain. —Fears are entertained in England of a coupe de main by Napoleon. Napier, the English Ship Builder, had received orders from Napoleon to build six teen Frigates for him. The British Admiralty, however cancelled the order, and instructed Napier to build the same number of Frigates for the British Government. — The Government are also instituting enquiries of the Rail Road Companies as to how many men, horses, and muni tions of war they’could carry to.specified points in case of emergency. A large Militia station is to be termed near Birmingham. No more regular troops are to be sent from home, and great activity prevails in the different Navy- Yards. The Grear West. —ln “1836 the commerce of the lakes was computed to be $6,461,274 in value. In 1843 that value “had become $89,538,726, In 1848 it was $186,484,905; and it is now more than $200,000,000. “The area of the Mississippi valley is 1,500,000 .square miles. If populated as densely as New England, it would hold 60,000,000 of people. If populated like England, it would contain 345,000000 of souls—nearly equivalent to one-half the present population of the globe. Less than seventy-five years ago it oontainod but 20,000 people, besides aborigines ; now it contains more “than 11,000000 of civilized inhabitants. It can support a denser population than any country of like extent in the world Divorce Cases. —Forty applications for divorce are now entered on the docket of the Massachu setts Supreme Court—almost equal to Connecticut. Anew establishment for the manufacture of bonnets has been organized on an extensive scale in Foxborough, Massachusetts. It is calculated to turn out ten thousand straw bonnets a year. It employs 2,000 females and 150 men ; but not more than one-fourth of them work in the factory, they being “aid by the piece. It appears from returns just made, that the to tal number of destitute juveniles, including infants’ in all Ireland, was 83,000, of whom a very large proportion permanently resided in the work ousea. France. —Louis Napokon was to have been married to Madame Montigo on the 30th ult. The dowry de manded for the Bride was five million francs, Twenty line of battle ships, eighteen frigates, and fifteen smaller vessels are being built in tlie"French navy yards. Flowers and Fruits. —After doing much, very much to foster and increase among our citizens the taste for cultivating flowers and fruits, to decorate and enhanae their pleasant home, Mr. Peabody returned to his own on Wednesday night, bearing with him the warmest wishes of a large number of newly made, but much attached friends. While here, he received orders for a far larger quantity of his fine strawberry plants than even his exten ive nursery can supply. In two or three years time our Mobile market will boast as abundant a supply of choice strawberries as that of any city in the Union-Mobile Reg. The Soil of the South. —ls rich iu the variety of its productions. Its thoughts on Agriculture are clear and comprehensive. It is a monthly of 32 pages, at One Dol lar per annum. The Agricultural and Horticultural de partraents are both ably conducted ; the former by James M. Chambers, the latter by Charles A. Peabody. These men are engaged in a worthy & noble, calling & certainly deserve the countenance and patronage of their felloiv-citi zens of the South. An improve in the system of Southern farming must be’manifest to every observer; and Agricul tural Societies, aided by Agricultural preriodicais mst work out this improvement.— Dem; West Telescope Gas CoMrANv.— W are pleased to learn, that the Board of Directors of this company yesterday declared a dividend of seven per. cent, out of the profits of the past six months. This is an excellent dividend when it is con sidered this is the first six months business of the company and that they have not yet completed the different avenues of piping through the city.— Const. 6 th inst. I! Mail Robbert.— A large robbery of the mail, between Clarksville and Paris, Tenn., took place a few days ago.— The mail carrier, who is suspected, lias disappeared.— Twelve letters, containing amounts varying from $250 down to sl, are known to be missing. A “‘Liquor Bill,” is before the Legislature ot Ohio which allows the mauufacturer of spirituous liquors in the State, the transportation through aud storage in the Suite, and the sale of liquors by “any one, without restrio tion, for medicinal, mechanical and sacramental purposes. Louisiana Senator. —The Louisiana House of Rep resentatives refused to go into the election of a United States Senator. Tho Senate has referred the question to the Judiciary Committee. Philos Andelfhos. —We notice by the Philadel phia papers, that the hubs of the Engine and Hose carriages are armed with iron points, for the pur pose of cutting away the spokes of any rival car iage that comes in collision, and of course, acts alike a circular saw upon all that they encounter, whether mail or beast, or mere painted wood. One of these, w hile two companies were racing on Sat i urday evening, struck a horse standing by the curb stone, and the poor auimal’s legs were shockingly lacetated. Austria has just addressed a domineering note to the government of the Swiss Confederation, threatening to resort to extreme measures, unless the Capuchin monks, expelled from the Canton of Ticino, be restored, a s they are claimed as Austri ansubjects. Letters from Vienna sta'e that Aus tria is disposed to pick op a quarrel with the Swiss. Mr. Sam. Medary of Ohio, is said to be strenu ously opposed by the Ohio people for a cabinet offi cer, and remonstrances against his choice have been forwarded to Concord. Mr. Cambell, Representa tive from Ohio, (Free-Soiler) has been offered the nomination for Governor of that State, butjhas not determined upon its acceptance. Site of the Pulaski Monument.— Robert E. Launitz, Esq., the contractor for the erection of the new- Pulaski Monument, left Savannah on Satur day fir New Y’ork, having come for the purpose of selecting the site of the structure. A vessel is now loading at Richmond, Pa., with eoa l or Australia. This is the first shipment of the black diamonds of Pennsylvania to that far off laud of goldeu promise. Lous McLane is uow spoken of for the Department of State in the new Cabinet, and Mr. Staunton, of Tenn., for the Navy. Taxes in Ci.ncin.natti. —Quite a number of the tax payers in Cincinnati run into the thousands. Mr. Nicho as Uongworth as high a $19,177. He must feel poor labout the time the tax-gaterer comes rouud. Ilis taxes, probably, exceed those of any other individual in the State. John Riddle, sen., pays the next highest in Cincinnati, $5,446. Eleven pay over $3,000; twenty-six over $2,000 : eigh ty .one SI,OOO ; and two hundred aud fifty-four SSOO or over- The venerable Jacob Barnet pays $2,857, and the Burnet House $3,150. Robert Burns, the Ayrshire poet and ploughman, who died neglected and unfriended, is likely in his descendants to mingle with the'aristoeraey of Britain we see, by our late English files. Major Burns—or Colonel —at present holding* a high situation in India, has his patent of nobil ity made out, and will shortly be gazetted as Baron Ellis land, the name of Burns’ farm. Mr. C. 11, Kingsmore of Abberviile District S, C., and M. D. by profession, and a young man of fine talents, has given up the spatula for the pencil, and gone to Italy to tudy painting, From the Savannah Courier. The Burial Place of Gen. ,Greene. S. T. Chapman, Esq. I noticed in tho Georgian of yesterday morning, some remarks made upon the follow ing extract from the Providence Journal: “General Greene died in Georgia, and to this day no man knoweth of his sepulchre.” In the course of tile remarks, the Georgian states, “vve are informed that there is still living in Savannah, one who having attended his funeral, can point cut a small circlS w-ithin which was his grave. The person to whom we allude, is Andrew Marshall, the aged Colored Pastor of one of the Colored Baptist Churches in this city.” I am aware that Mr. Marshall is very familiar with the traditionary history of ravannali ; more so, perhaps, than any person now living, who has enjoyed equal means of information. From his lips I have received statements concerning the revolution, and the period immediately succeeding it which were afterwards confirmed by in telligent soldiers of 1776. f.’r. Marshall, however, 1 think, cannot designate the spot where the remains of Gen eral Greene are to be found. Judge Johnston, in his life of Gen. Greene, says : “On the morning after his death, his corpse was brought down by water, and received on the river bank by the military and municipality of the place. The citizens all followed in procession to the grave yard, which to the honor of Christianity, is in Savannah, common to all sects, or all mankind ; and the funeral ceremony was read over tile corpse by the Honorable William Stephens, as there was not at that time a minister of the gospel in the city. The body was then depositedin a vault, but tho identical vault still remains a subject ot inquiry. “The graves and vaults are all disposed in regular rows; and there are four contiguous vaults, in one of those rows; in one of which four it is ascertained the body was deposi ted, but which of them, still remains in doubt.” Some years ago a committee was appointed by the City Council of Savannah to search for the remains. This committee examined several of the vaults, but circumstan ces prevented them from extending the search to all. 1 do not remember the names of the gentlemen composing the committee, but think two of them were Charles Har ris, Esq., and Mr. John Ash. Judge Johnston also says “that he had been repeatedly told by Judge Stephens, that the body of Gen Greene lay in the tomb of the Joneses.” That tomb, when the Judge wrote, had not been searched ; and it was his opin. ion, that there was much evidence to prove that it was placed at first in that of the Grahams. The Judge does not furnish the evidence for thinking that General Greene was at first placed in the vault of the Grahams. There is a gentleman now residing in,Savannah, who has given me the following history of th e affair, and I have no doubt that Judge Johuston had received the same account. General Greene received from the State of Georgia a confiscated estate of a royalist, whose name I will not mention, together with the family vault in the Cemetery as an appendage. This vault afterwards became the pro perty of Mrs. —• My informant also states that some time after the interment of General Greene, the above lady, accompanied by several of her confidential servants, went to the Cemetery, removed the body and buried it near the spot upon which the Quoit Club no.v assemble. It was said that in this vault had been placed the remains of two British officers and Mrs. , who was a staunch royalist, regarded it as an indignity, that a rebel General should be placed beside two of the King’s officers. There is also another tradition, that Gen. Greene was ptaced in a vault belonging to tiie ancestors of Captain Rpberl W. Pooler, of this city. This gentleman informs me that his mother had frequently *told him that Gen. Greene was placed in her family vault—that the Com mittee above referred to examined this vault, but couldnot find any traces of the remains. He also says that it was generally understood that the heavy Silver Plate on the lid of the coffin was removed by a negro man named Joe who was employed to close the vault. This boy Joe, was a notorious thief ; having been particularly expert in stealing pigeons, he was generally known by the name of Pigeon Joe. Which of theso statements is tile most re liable I do not pretend to say, but it is my opinion that any search for the remains of Gen. Greene in the Ceme tery will be unsuccessful. Very respectfully, GEO, WHITE. The French Empress.—A correspondent of a Northern paper gives the following history of the lady who succeeds Mrs, Howard in the affections of the present occupant ol the Tuilleries: “A worthy Scotchman, by the name of William Kirkpair.ck, was for some time the American Con- , sul at Malaga, and, failing in business, was succeed ed by George G- Barrel, as a United Stales Consul at Malaga. This was, I think, under President Monroe’s administration “Mr. Kirkpatiick’s eldest daughter Maria, or ‘Mariquita,’ ns she was familiarly called and known by all Americans there, was a very fine, dashing, lady, and married llie Count de Teba a younger brother of the celebrated Palafoix, who behaved so gallantly at the siege of Saragossa, and who in reply to a demand of surrender, declared he would continue*the defe-.ce by ‘War to the knife.’ “The Palafoix family embraced numerous titles, and was singularly brave and noble. “This husband of Maria Kirkpatrick (Count de Teba) was a gallant soldier and so cut up by wounds as to be unable to mount his horse without aid, and when in the saddle looked more as if he was hooked on than seated there. “The new Empress of the French is no doubt the daughter of this Countess Teba, ‘Mariquita Kirkpatrick,’ who was the daughter of William Kirkpatrick, late United States Consul at Malaga— not British Consul—not Fitzpatrick—and not Irish. “The British Consul at Malaga was William Laird, another Oid Scotch gentleman, and he was followed by Mr. Marks, an Englishman. “If the new Empress of France was Countess Teba, as stated, then her mother is dead, as also is her father, and she took the title of her mother.— The name Montego, under which she passed in Par is, is perhaps one of the family names or titles of the Palafoix family.” “Where there’s a will there’s a way,” says the old proverb, and Shakspeare’s marriage was a cu rious proof of ihis; ‘or in the days ot the great poet it might have been said, Shakspeare is the ty’ill. and his wife Hath-a-wap ! Taking the Veil.—At the convent of the Sis ters of the good Shepherd, yesterday forenoon, two young ladies were received as novices, and a third entered the final vow’ of the Order. The Archbishop prefaced the ceremony with an appro priate lecture. Many ladies and a few- gentlemen, of various creeds, were present, and the ceremo nies are said to have been exceedingly touching. [S/. Louis Republican 20lh ult. Dan says his sister is a member of the Non-Resis . tanee (Peace) Society, and she is so tender-hearted that she can’t be even persuaded to strikes light. Railway Signals. —Signal Extortion, Signal Neglect, and Signal Impudence. Governor Hebert, of Louisiana, is said to be conval escent. Free Negroes.—The number of free negroes in Texas is less than that of any other State in the Union, being only 331. lowa has 335 ; Pennsylvania-53,823;—Virginia 53,829; and Maryland 74,077, a greaternumber than in any other State. A Shipload of Wivf.s—An immense emi grant ship, called the Caroline Chisholm, is about to sail from Southampton, England, for Australia, with nine hundred young women of . good character as emigrants. Mrs. Chisholm, who, having lived in Australia, is famous for her generous interest in behalf of female emi grants to that country, will accompany them. The expectation is, that all these “gentle crea tures” will be eagerly sought for in marriage by i industrious and hardy miners, farmers and shop keepers.
