[From the New York Evening Times.] •Southern Female Education. The North is right glad to acknowledge it, and acknowledge it she will—the south is doing some wonders in the way of improving girls. For years past, the land that a great gulf stops from reaching into the tropics, has been stretch ing its arms towards another equator, and the “imaginary great circle” is fast becoming more than a line among the divisions of the social sphere. In sugar and Howers it has long en grossed, their respective tastes, and even aboli tionism has generally done justice to it when ever it has dreamed of magnolia grandiflora or taken coffee. But it now brings out its chivalry in anew panoply. The gallant knight looks well, and we predict achievements that shall be embroidered in cloth of gold. It is really a most gratifying matter, ami calls upon us to revise the former edition of our ideas. Southern people, we protest, should let us know what they are doing, so that we shall he posted up when wo come to what is done. As it is, they teach the practical meaning of Emerson, that life is “a series of surprises.” They are get- 1 ting ahead of our statistics, and this is really tin- j pardonable in an age that has volumes ofsfatis- | tics, that are—that are not—and that are to be.; So we go. But this is going forward ; this is the mighty woman's movement; this is the mod ern Adam, undertaking the generalship of the young Eves, and preparing them to do fierce battle on the thorns and thistles, that the para disical mother, in an unlucky moment, spread over the unknown continents. Southern women, we rather apprehend, are more warmly appre ciated than the sex in any other latitude, South erners certainly think so. One thing is indispu table—their liege lords are charmingly attentive j to them. Nor is this strange. Southern civiliz ation has always tended inwardly—toward the j shaded rooms in summer, and the receiving fire- ! side in winter—and hence, woman is in her glory. It is dangerous for Northern women to go to the best sections of the South, as they pretty generally terminate the trip in raptures. The busy, out in the world, Northern husband ‘ thereby suffers. Soft words woo an extra bom out of him ; thenceforth to keep on good terms, and to be sure of good dinners, he has to humor notions, or otherwise take the word “help-male'’ to himself. But to tho facts. Passing by Maryland and the ‘‘Old Dominion”—"a mother'’ herself—we find that long ago Rip Van Winkle North Caro lina waked up on the rights of girls, and immor talized herself in Salem and other localities.— Then South Carolina entered tho field, and the 1 Charleston, Colombia and other Female Schools j made a vigorous sensation. Georgia has heat j them both. Whether Whitfield’s genius for the j Orphan House at Savannah or what else sowed , the seed, is not material ; but grand things have i been effected. Not to mention other points, Macon has a large Female College ; then Bishop Elliott’s establishmnet; then Columbus; and be- ! yond all, a little village that remembers Lafay ette and calls itself LaGrange, has immense in stitutions, (considering the population,) and an organic mania for the capture and training of j the dear young ladies. And now in a paper be- i fore us from Atlanta, arc the outlines of two j new projects, a Female College at Covington, with the names of Dawson, Cobh and Wayne \ connected with its Trustees, and another at ’ Cuiloden, to he called “Central Female Col lege.’’ . These establishments are liberally provided with teachers, libraries, apparatus, and other ap- i pliances, while their discipline is unsurpassed.— ! Alabama, for anew State, is ahead of all the I South. Huntsville, Florence, Selma, Summer field, Eutaw, Lowndesboro, Montgomery, Tus kegee and sundry other places of Indian sound or foreign euphony, are straining every nerve j for four-story edifices, and girls in their teens, (ill them. Mississippi has not repudiated this debt i to young women, and she joins in the race, just’ as if she had a clear conscience, with good! muscles to prove it. May the women redeem her! The sparse population of the planting Stales has made it difficult for a general public school system to he sustained : hut the wants are no bly met, so far as practicable, by this immense ! movement. We give it a cordial cheer, and thank the beneficent spirit of the day. Educa ted women will, by-and-by, educate the world ; and what newspapers, pulpits and Congresses shall we have then ! V> hat poems and home- , realities ! The time has fairly arrived for peo ple to have families, ami every bachelor should he ignored. Let the boys look out, and especially the young men at the colleges, for i sisters will rend them uncurtained lectures, and wives will make them blnsli for their bad> Latin. I From the Daily Register of the 12th iust ] laimting ot the Vice President. Yesterday morning, about 12 o’clock, the steamer Junior, Capt. Armstrong, brought up Vico President King ami his accompanying re latives from the steamer Fulton, which remains at her auchorage near Dog River Bar. They were landed on Government street wharf, where an immense assemblage of citizens had gathered of vtitness the debarkation. Col. King came forward, supported by two of llie officers of the Fulton, and was conducted ton carriage provided for the purpose. He appear ed to be extitmely feeble and attenuated though he bote his head erect, and his eyes glanced around seemingly with a sad, though pleased interest, to find himself once more on the soil of his beloved Alanama—the Land of Rest. ‘I litre vas a profound sensation jn the largo crowd present, as they gazed upon the Ibrm of the venerable statesman and patriot, thus en feebled by the heavy hand of disease—thus stricken by the arrows of sickness, in the midst of the honors which the nation has so recently bestowed upon him—and the sad countenances, the uncovered brows, ami inut> decorum of all, testified to the deep solicitude and sympathy which universally prevailed. The sail specta cle repressed the cordial and enthusiastic cheers which would have otherwise greeted our illus trious fellow-citizen upon his return to*thc em porium of the State which has so iong cherish ed him as her favorite sou. During the progress of the Junibrupthe Ray, 1 with with the national Hag displayed at her jaek-stafTthe State Artillery fired the Vice Presi- j dent’s salute of seventeen guns. Col. King, with his family, was immediately conducted to the Battle House, where he now has most pleasant and desirable rooms. It is, we understand, his intention to remain some j days in this city. Wo tru.-t that the fine woath- J er now prevailing, may alleviate his disease, and give him some slight increase of strength. For some days before leaving Cuba, the influence of the climate there was not so favorable, as had been hoped, but his passage to this port did j not increase his debility. Thackeray vj 'tm female ucciety. —Mr. Thack eray is, by no means, a universal favorite among ladies; yet no writer is more their cham pion than lie. In one of the -Messrs. Appleton’s late republications of his former works, occurs the following passage:—“One of the great bene fits a voting man may derive from women’s so ciety is, that he is bound to be respectful to them. The habit is of great good to your moral man, depend on it. Our education makes of us the most eminently selfish men in the world. We fight for ourselves; we push for ourselves; we cut the best slices out of the joint at club-dinners for ourselves; we yawn for our selves, and light our pipes and sue we won’t go out; we prefer ourselves and our ease; and the greatest good that comes to a mao from woman's society is, that he has to think of somebody beside himself—somebody to whom he is bound to be constantly attentive and re spectful. Certainly, I don’t want my dear Boh to associate with those of the other sex whom he doesn’t and can’t respect; that is worse than billiards—worse than tavern brandy-and-water ; j worse than smoking selfishness at home. But I I vow I would lather see you turning over the leaves of ?iliss Fiddlecotuhe’s music book all night, than at billiards, or smoking, or brandy nnd-water, or all three.” Zimtz anil Svntmtl.

EXPRESSLY FOR THE TIMES & SENTINEL, j New-Orleans, April 12.—There is a fair demand I for Cotton in our market to-day. Sales reached 2,000 | bales. Yesterday they reached 3,000. Middlings are i selling at 10c. New Orleans, April 14. Up to one o’clock yesterday, eight thousand bales of I cotlon were sold To-day the demand is good.

Mobile, April 14. The demand for cotton is good. Sales to-day amount to 2000 halos. Prices arc very hard ? Vie*- President King, continues very feeble. Gov. Cobb's Letter. Wo publish to-day the letter of Governor Cobb de- j fining his position, and cointnc-nd it to the attention of i our readers. We are gratified to find that His Excel- | lency cherishes a conciliatory spirit towards the Southern Rights Democracy, is willing to forget the past, and j co-operate cheerfully in the advancement of the prinei- j pies which we hold in common. Much of our opposi tion to him resulted from the mistaken opinion that be ; sanctioned the wild ravings of tho Togalo Faction, j which euu fiud no gentler epithet than “traitor” to do- i eiguatc the members of the great majority of the re- : organised Democracy. The letters of Messrs. Hull and ; Jackson have fully satisfied us that these difiorgaiiisers found neither a friend nor sympathiser iu Gov. Cobb, and though we think lie did wroifg in keeping silence curing the canvass, we comprehend llie motives which governed him, and are not disposed to make this a t ground of quarrel. It, therefore, Gov. Cobb can freely : co-operate with the Southern Rights men of Georgia iu ; support of Gen. Pierce** administration, we will not shut • the door against him. lie is in a position to do much for the common cause in his district by putting down a faction j which, to gratify, as it seems to us, personal hatred to I particular individuals in the party, would gladly pulldown I upon their own heads the pillars upon w Inch the tem j pie rests; and we aio not without hope, flint an inti | mate association with the pure and conservative states- I men who are now at the head of the government will i commend to his favorable nctiee the grout principles of I State Rights and State remedies, upon which the party in Georgia so unfortunately divided. Wo will, we presume, be permitted in al! kindness to ; j point out what we conceive to be one or two radical ! ; errors in His Excellency’s review of the history of the j : Democratic party ami of the present position of its chief, j Gov. Cobb docs not assert positively, but intimates i strongly, that the course of the Union party at the ! south was endorsed by the Baltimore convention. We do not think so. When the convention met, the corn | promise was pot an open question. It was the law of i the land. All organised opposition to it had ceased in the south. There were mobs at the north which occa sionally resisted that part of it embraced in the Fugitive slave law. In view of this opposition to the only re maining feature which was open to violation, tho con vention declared that it would “adhere to and abide by the compromise,” thereby placing the seal of its disap probation upon the treasonable practices of the abolition ists, and giving a guarantee to the south of the future enforcement of their rights, without expressing any opinion as to the odious features of the corn promise which were fixed facts, and had stirred up resistance at the south. General Tierce in his Inaugural went beyond the Baltimore Platform and declared tho compromise “constitutional, ’’ a position not by any means universally denied by the Southern Rights party, but did not sanction it as * ’fair, liberal, and just;” and his mind was evi- | dently directed to the Fugitive slave law, as the whole j context clearly proves. He makes no allusion to any | other feature of it but this, and in a preceding para- j grapli he evidently intends to relieve the South from all blame for the results of the agitation which grew out of j it, and to fix it home upon the northern fanatics by as sorting unequivocally that “if the federal government will confine itself to the exercise of powers clear!)’ j granted by the constitution, it can hardly happen thatfts action upon any question should endanger the institu- j tions cf the States, or interfere with their rights to man- j age matters strictly domestic according to tho will of their own people,” And in confirmation of this view, 1 wc proudly refer to the facts that Jefferson Davis is a j leading member of Ins Cabinet, and that the most deli cate mission in his gift was conferred upon Pierre Soule, * and that none of the prominent leaders of the Uniou j party at the south have received high office at his bauds, ,• We are also compelled reluctantly to differ w ith his j Exeelleccy as to tho doctrine of “Secession.” We can- 1 not regard it as an open question. It i. known that j the Southern Rights Democracy insisted upon the adop- j lion of the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions of the • Baltimore convention 4 *in their plain meaning and im port,” as a sine qua non of co-operation on their part with the National Democracy. This was done, and thereby the fullest aud most unequivocal sanction given ! to the proposition that in all conflicts with the federal government —“the State fIkiII judge of tire mode and I measure of redress and nullification is the rightful reme dy**—the ever memorable words of the Kentucky Rc ; solutions. *!: is u”o, therefore, far Gov. Cobb to set up in opposition to this plain declaration, the federal here sies of the l’uoc’amation, which its author found it ne cessary to explain, and tho great body of the party re pudiated, al -ng w ith Father Ritchie. We have not opened those subjects of controversy ! in any captious spirit, but to preserve the truth of his . tory, and k-. k p before the people the cardinal principles !of the Democratic Party, without which it would Ik* j dead mass, without life or power, except to elevate its > devotees to honors and office. The State Rights tie- j ment we regard as its distinguishing characteristic. It [; is the very corner stone of the edifice, upon which the \ whole superstructure of southern rights rests; and rath- • er than remove it from the temple, we would gladly j see the whole fabric totter to its overthrow*. The Spirit of the South and Capt. Abercrombie- j The Spirit of the South announces the willingness of ; tho Southern Rights Democracy of the District to sup . I i port the gallant Captain Abercrombie for Oongre**, at • the next flection. The Spirit says : ; 4i lt is fresh in the recollect fan of us all that when the l Northern anti-compromise wing of the Whig party. 1 achieved in the National Convention, a signal triumph } in the nomination of General Scott. Capt. Abercrombie | v. as among the foremost in repudiating their action, and | denouncing their nominee as unworthy of southern sup- j jxirt, and that throughout the canvass he maintained ] this ground in opposition to the entire Union press in this j district, as well as of a large proportion of the voters to whom he ow ed hi* election. It is an appropriate sequel j to this manly and independent course that he now spurns. ‘ the dictation of that rotten clique of disappointed Scott politicians wdio, seeking to ostracise him because of this- : act of fidelity to his section, vainly hoped through thema chinery of a convention to fasten upon the district a matt of their own stripe—some less scrupulous politician by trade far whom no abandonment of principle would be too shameless nnd for whom even Seward ism itself has: no terrors if its lurid glare serves but to light \h * way ! to the spoils of office. Foiled it this prime object, tho£ j next endeavored to preserve at least an apparent ascen dency by promising him a nomination, if he would but thus recognize their supremacy and lend his name and influence to their political schemes, but each new effort has only served to render his rejection of their foul j embrace, the more emphatic and decided.” Brunswick, Georgia—lts Port and City. This is the name of a pamphlet* “addressed to the ! commercial and business men of the United States and • foreign countries, by the Board of directors, of the city jof Brunswick.” it contains some interesting informa tion about the location, pori, and prospects of the city, but very little ns to the prospects of the Rail road t<‘ Pensacola. All that is said about this important mat i ter is contained in this short paragraph: ’’The Road j (from Brunswick to the Gulf .f Mexico, via Thonms j ville, in Thomas county, Georgia, to the port of St. Mark’s, in Florida; with a branch from the main line i at Troupville, to Albany, on Flint river?) is now under j contract, and the work is prosecuted under the most experienced and energetic management. The com pa ; ny propose, at the earliest practicable moment, to extend j it from Thomasvillo to Pensacola, in a direct line.” 1 They further state that the distance saved by the I road, when it reaches Florida, to all the commerce of i the States bordering on the Golf of Mexico, will exceed | 1,000 miles for each passage to and from Europe, and | the northern seaboard, and the insurance against sea risks will be reduced one halt*. They further state, that a bale of cotton weighing 500 lbs., can be convey | ed from New Orleans to Liverpool via Brunswick for $1 32 Ices than around the capes of Florida. The dis tance from the northern commercial towns to Tehuan tepec will also be shortened by ihit? route, about as much as the distance to and from Europe. The di rectors therefore hope that all western commerce will pass through Brunswick on its way to the north and Europe, and that trade and travel to Mexico and to California, and the Pacific, will find this the shortest, cheapest, and most expeditious route. If these san guine expectations are realised, they will unquestion ably give to Brunswick the full benefit of her natural advantages, and place her in a position to become the great commercial emporium of the South Quien eabe ? The city of Brunswick is situated on Tut tle river, ( an arm of the sea which passes between JekyJPs and St. Simon’s Islands, and flows into the interior upwards of 20 miles. The city i* only six miles from the sea. . Tiie mean level of the city is 1 5 feet above high tide water. The be6t anchorage nu.y bo found near the bluff, upon which the city i h built, ranging along the , whole extent of the town, at from twenty to forty feet water at low tide. The city is bounded on the north by a high pine land, which runs gradually back about twenty-five miles, until it reaches the sand hills in Wayne county, at an elevation of ninety-two feet above the tide water at Brunswick. It is further stated, that the mean temperature of the city is 67 degree*. The summer heats are tempered by cool breezes, reg ularly setting in from the sol; and the diseases ascrib ed to Homo parts of the low country of Georgia arc un known there. The neck of land which separates Brunswick from the Altamaha river, is has than 12 miles wide, and a canal connecting the two points is very near completion it will ho finished this spring. The directors anticipate that this canal will change the whole course of trade on the Altamaha and its wa ters, and bring the teeming wealth of the Oconee and Ocinulgee rivers into Brunswick. Much str ss is laid upon the lumber and turpentine trade, and in confirmation of this view, it is stated in the circular , that the Island of Cuba consumes 40,000,000 feet of lum ber per annum, in the single article of sugar boxes, which is supplied from Maine. This trade, it is thought, the port of Brunswick will in great part monopolise* The pine lands of Georgia embrace one sixth of the entire area of the State. Largo tracts of this country have been explored by gentlemen from North Carolina. The facilities for carrying on this business are said to be without limit, and in view of the facilities offered by the contemplated rail road, lands have increased 200 per cent. The directors conclude their circular with a veiy en thusiastic description of the future prospects of Bruns wick, and if half their anticipations arc realized, New Orleans will be a mere village in comparison. We i confess however that we look forward with pleasure to the time w hen she will become the rival of Savan nah. Her prospects at any rate are bright enough to induce our capitalists to turn their attention in that di rection. Temperance Halt—An appeal to the Ladies. We regret to learn that there is a debt hanging over this property of about twcutv seven hundred dollars, and that the Order is not able to pay it. The Hall, as is well known, is o;>en to the public, and is the only room in the city which can accommodate our population on festive oe casions We arc informed that in case of a forfeiture of the charter by the subordinate lodge, the building will revert to the Grand Lodge of the State, and that in that event, the Hall will probably be closed to the public. The heavy debt hanging over the Lodge depret-ses its energies and retards its prosperity, and may in the end, result in its dissolution and the forfeiture of the Hall. It is, there fore, a matter of public interest that the debt be paid. We are informed that all aid from other quarters is despaired of, and that the only hope of the order is from the gener ous munificence of the community, which is proverbially equal to all just demands upon it. It has been suggested that if this subject were presented to the Indies of the city, to whom the Sons of Temperance are the warmest and best friends, that their ingenuity could devise some expedient by which this burthen could be moved from the j shoulders of the Lodge. We fully concur in this opinion. J The approaching national anniversary will be a season of j peculiar interest in our city, as w e anticipate a visit fr*m ! the military of several of our neighboring ei ties, and we ] feel confident that a Fair for the benefit of the Lodge would add much to the interest of the occasion and meet with the approbation and patronage of the community. We make ! the suggestion merely for the consideration of the Ladies, i and will be pleased to see it abandoned, and some other I adopted which will more surely effect the object cont cm- j plated, and will cheerfully cooperate with them in what* | ever course they may think it advisable to pursue—satis- j fied.as we are, that it will be tho right and proper one. No time, however, should Ik? lost, and we hqie active efforts will at once be made to relieve the Lodge from debt, and secure the Hall to the use of the community. Asa farther inducement, if any were necessary to in- j creased activity in this good work, we are authorised to j state, that the net income wf the Hall, which is over £4OO | per anuutn, will, after the debt referred to is paid off, heap- ; propi iatcu to charitable puposes ; and thus a permanent fund be created to sustain iu part the Orphan Asylum and other charitable institutions of the city. The Southern Agricultural Convention. This body was organized at Macon, Ga., at the last Fair, and adjourned over to the Ist Moody in May next, at which time it w ill again assemble in Mont gomery, Alabama. Many of the Southern Stales have appointed dele gates, end it is confidently expected that the assemblage will be unusually large, and that it will include among its members most of the talent and worth of the agri cultural classes of tho south. Gov. Cobb has not ap pointed any delegates from Georgia, but recommends each county in the State t*> send up its representatives. We hope the suggestions of his Excellency will be acted upon: but in ease this is not done, wc hope every agri cultural society in the State will appoint delegates. Ample preparations have been made hv the patriotic citizens of Montgomery to entertain the convention ; and the Executive Commit tee of tho society have spared no pains to make this meeting peculiarly interesting and beneficial to the community. Addresses will he deliv ered upon subjects of most vital importance to the south ern planter, by the ablest and most distinguished orators iu tho south, and wc hope much will bo done to give proper direction and tone to the southern mind. The soutli occupies a peculiar position in respect to the rest of mankind. Her staple productions arc j>eeuliar j her labor is peculiar. It is, there fore, of the last importance, that southern opinion should be harmonised, and the whole energy of our people be directed to preserve the one, and fos ter the other. These are the primary objects of the ; convention, while it is proposed at the same time to j | look after every other interest. j The time for preparation is short, and if any thing j is to be done by counties or societies, it must be done | quickly. Statistics of Crime. We find much food for thought in the follow ing sta tistics of crime among w hite and free colored persons in the* several States of the Union. The contrast is any thing but favorable to the African race, and gives no j encouragement to the wild fancies of fanatics who sup- j pose the negro is capable of attaining a position equal to j that of the white man. The fcllowing is the ratio of convicts received in i Penitentiaries for 10 years ending 30th Sept. 1850 : States. White population.

This is not j the first instance, however, where the pour publican has j been preferred to the canting hypocrite. Second Congressional District. Our suggestion to hold a convention early in June, at Albany, Ga., to nominate a Congressman, has not been responded to bv the Party. No time ought to be lost, and we therefore urge it upon oar political friends, to hold county meetings immediately, and appoint dele gates. It is thought by some of our friends that America* would be a more suitable placo for the assembling of the j convention. We have no preferences. Let the placo j ( bv seketed which is most convenient. The great point to be attained is harmony. We would be* pleased to j have the suggestions of our friends upon this subject. There arc* several other gentlemen in the district, be side those heretofore mentioned, who would make able j representatives, and satisfy all parties. Among these is j Martin J. Crawford, of this city, whose devotion to j 1 the South and the great conservative principles of the i 1 party has endeared him to the Democracy. Where there arc so many persons whose qualifications i are so prominent, there may be some difficulty in tuak- I ing a choice; but w r e incline to the opinion that cither •; of those suggested would be cordially supported by the • people. They all possess tho requisite qualifications, en- ! tered warmly into the support of Pierce and King, and j are identifitul iu interest and principle* with the people of I the district. 1 W e hope our friends will speak out and give au earn- j eat of their devotion to their principles by cordially sc* ! eonding this movement to rally the party to the polls at j the next election. Our Book ‘Fable. Dcßow's Review for April. —A glance at this num ber of the Review has satisfied us that it is fully equal to it predecessors in the variety and interest of the subjects , discussed in its pages. The articles upon “Florida—its . position, resources and destiny,” and “China in 1853,” are of peculiar interest at the present moment, as connect ed with the rapidly extending commerce of the country along the shores of the Pacific.

General Marshall was highly popular in the region of the State where he re sided and was frequently elected to represent his eouu- ! ty in the State Legislature. He served hi* country in ] the war of 1812, and was a Brigadier General in the war with Mexico.

We refer our Alabama readers to an article from i the Alabama Journal , in which they will find a notice ! of a whig meeting in Macon county, at which delegates were appointed to a district convention, the object of which is to nominate a candidate for Congress—not withstanding the fact that Captain Abercrombie is already in the field.

('utton for Columbus. — We learn that Messrs, j Wells it Durr, yesterday, received thirty hairs of cot- : ton from Columbus, being the first ever received from j that city. It is the beginning, however, of a trade j which is destined to grow rapidly, and into great im- j portanee. We learn from Mr. Reynolds, the President \ of the Southwestern Company, that the work is rapidly i progressing on the Muscogee branch, and that the en- j lire line to Columbus, will he completed in the course <*f I four'or five weeks. If the next fall should be a dry one, | this road will bring to Savannah, during the next year, j fifty thousand bales of Cotton, which have heretofore gone to the Gulf ports. We have also heard that it is the intention to run the passenger trains through iu twelve hours. Should this be cone, it will add greatly to the trade and intercourse between the two sections. We look to the completion of this road to Columbus, as a matter of great public importance and sincerely hope that the Southwestern road may soon be pushed for ward through Stewart and Randolph, either to Eu faula, or some other equally eligible point.— Savannah Courier . Rishop Soule. — We had the pleasure, this afternoon, of meeting Bishop Soule, tho venerable patriarch of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in the United States. The old man is 72 years of age ; but his step is vigorous and hi*form erect, lie locks as though lie [ would outstand many more days of travel. Ho re- | marked, respecting his trip to California, that, in addi- 1 tion to the objects of his mission, he had another in centive—having journeyed through every other state in the Union, and the territories adjacent, he strongly desired to see the whole of California. For half a cen tury, this man has wielded no uncommon influence in the Church organization by which lie is now venerated as a patriarch. He is a powerful preacher—an effective de fender of tho Church, at all points—and he bears the unmistakable impression of the man on his massive forehead. Panama Echo. Mew Route to California. —A letter from Col. Miles, 3d Infantry, United States army, now in New Mexico, makes known that anew pass has been discovered from Albuquerque, seventy five miles from Santa Fe, N.

French Naval Expedition.—'The French Govern ment has sent a squadron of eight armed steam vessels, carrying a land force of 500 men, against the inhabitants : of one of the islands of the Archipelago of Bisagos, be tween the Cape de Ycrd and Sierra Leona.

We are not told what the character of tho reprisals was, but the information “that they were complete, and produced the roost salutary effect on the piratical tribes in the Archipelago and along tho coast,” is very sug gestive.

The spring has been unusually backward. Corn planting ha* been much retarded, and it ia very proba ble that “stands” will be imperfect. Cotton planting hardly commenced until the beginning of this week. It is questionable, however, if this will not be advantage ous in the end, as the cotton will grow* off freely, if the weather continues favorable, and have sufficient time to mature the crop before frost. For ten days past the weather has been warm and the earth has been refresh ed with occasional showers. The Tehuantepec Treaty. The Picayune has a dispatch, which was forwarded from the city of Mexico to Vera Cruz, on the 22d nit., by the new telegraph line, announcing that “the Pleni potentiaries, Conkling, Tornel. and Castillo Lanzas, sign ed a treaty last evening at 9 o’clock, between tho Uni ted States and Mexico, guaranteeing the neutral.ty and protection of the Sloo transit way across Tehuantepec, and the entire security of the capital invested therein.

It is confidently expected that eighty-eight miles of this road will be finished and ready for use by Decem ber. The lettings for gradation, masonry, Src., to the northern line of Tennessee were to have been made on the 13th iust., and it is believed by tho Mobile Tribune that the whole line of tho road from Mobile to within thirty miles of the mouth of the Ohio river is now tinder contract —and soon expects to have the agreeable intel ligence that the work of grading is> in progress on every section of the road. The Tribune concludes an article upon this subject with the following cheering paragraph: “In all this, we see almost the consummation of our great enterprise ; for all the great opposing obstacles have been, one after the other, surmounted, and now we have ! the certainty of being in communication with the mouth of the Ohio within three years at tho very farthest. Some of the direct ora say that in less time the work will be com pleted. We hope, nt all events, the determination will be registered by the directors ns a fixed the Mobile and Ohio Railroad shall be in operation in 1856, and as much earlier ns possible.” Rail Road Junctions.

Will Savannah go to Columbus, or Col’ umhus to Savannah, or both come to fraternize at Macon, or all stay at home !

The abolition disease is at the north, and must bo cured, if cured at all, by the application of the knife by a northern surgeon. We hail, therefore, every mani festation of conservative sentiment in that quarter, as “an Oasis in a desert.” The following article from tho Detroit (Michigan) Free Press is as refreshing as a great rock in a thirsty land, and gives promise of a healthier public sentiment in future at the north. The Editor very properly charges disunion sentiments and purposes upon tho abolitionists who apply the fuel to the flame at the south. This opinion is very forcibly sustained and endorsed by President Pierce in his Inaugural. The southern people have ever shown a commendable zeal for the Union, and have in no ease manifested a repug nance to it except when over dosed with the quack medicines of abolitionists nnd manufacturers. There is, therefore, no necessity for union homilies or farewell addresses here. They are the proper remedies for northern disease, and the Union quacks at the south would find a much wider field for their practice if they would emigrate to the north where the disunion dis ease is epidemic. Here is the article : [From the Detroit Free Press.] A SCRAr OF HISTORY. The history of tlle rise of slavery in the CTnit.d Stat-s makes the people of the north equally with the people of the south responsible for its existence. When the federal compact was formed there was not a free state on the con tinent. Each and every one of tile original thirteen held slaves. Thus, slaveholding was one of the integral and primary conditions of our confederation ; and was recog nised by the constitution itself. Yet with this mark of fallibility our country has grown in beamy, and grown as no government ever grew before, until it is non- the won der nnd the hope of the Chrisitan world. We are led to these reflections by perusing an article In the New York Democrat, having tor its put pose to do jus tice to tho south. The people of the north do not remem ber, when they assault the institutions of the south, that the greatest sacrifices necessary to the formation of the Union were made by the southern States. The revolu tion had left the confederacy largely in debt, and when the Union was finally established, there was no way of meeting the first expenses of its new being. Virginia responded to a call for aid, by the magnanimous cession of her immense domain beyond the Ohio. The provisions lor the settlement of this territory, and for tile survey mid sale of the public lands, for the national relief, naturailv included a temporary government for its term of minority, and prospective arrangements for its final place in the family of States ; and they were made in the broadest spirit of liberty. Slavery was not then an element of sec tional jealousy, and a common desire to limit its influence actuated all the members of the Federal Union. It was therefore decided, by universal consent, that it should not be permitted to enter the future States norili of the Ohio ; although for the protection of the slaveholders of other States, it was expressly stipulated that fugitive slaves could be reclaimed from the non-slaveholding States. Os all tiie representatives present when this act passed Congress, one only Mr. V ates, of New \ ork—voted against it: and it became a law and precedent in tho land. ■Such aro some of the historical laets which exhibit South ern philanthropy aud Southern statesmanship inavery ditferent light from that iu which they have been held up in the political harangues of fanatics ■ and it has now be. ecune a vital question with tiie more sober and patriotic citizo nsof tho north whether there shall not be a deter mined and effectual resistance to the restless spirit of insult and irritation which would open again the exasperating issues that so long threatened the peace of the country. The great national democratic party will wisely and firmly abide by the constitution and the compromises. In its pulley ot administrative justice, it knows no sectional divi sions, only as they are [tarts of the common country, each entitled to equal consideration and respect. The original condition on which each State united in the federative compact was, that tliei o should be no invasion of its popu lar rights, or interference with the sovereign control of its institutions. These, indeed, are well defined pledges of the constitution ; and any persistent departure from its principles would be a violation of good faith, and would surely lead to disrupture. e give [dace to these remarks, in view of an unmis takable movement in the north to revive tlieold anti-slave ry agitation. I'he demon of disunion has not been thor oughly throttled. She is gathering her forces foranotber onslaught upon |teaee and good order, and it behooves Un democratic party to sound the alarm, meet the attack, and beat back the motley crew who are following the black banner of fanaticism. More oi the Lola Montes The New Orleans Crescent give the following parti culars of the recent difficulty in the Varieties between the pugnacious Countess and Mr. Rowe: “It appears that Lola on the night in question, presum ing in the privileges of the buskhie<l craft, as well as on the blazonry of her distinguished title a$ Countess of Lands Celt, had insinuated herself behind the scenes of live theatre. Ir was at the moment that Miss Duee Barre was daneing. Lola, not satisfied with seeing the dance wished also to take a peep at the audience, and to tluit .-nd ventured beyond the side-wings so as to place herself in full view of a portion of the spectators in the boxes. Here she commenced telegraphing some of the kid-glove beaux in the boxes, and flourishing a bouquet , in a manner cals dilated to draw the attention of many of the idlers there about. Mr. Rowe, the prompter, (a gentleman well known here f.. y more than a quarter of* century, and respected alike far his conduct and for his age) exptetulatea with Lola far this strange conduct, assuring her that it w*?s likely to create confusion, etc., and requested her to dtsi-t. This the fugacious Loll disregarded, and flying into a towering passion, abused Mr. Rowe worse than a pick pooxol. Uowo tried to quiet her, but it was no go! Her blood was up and there she stood, uncorking the phials of her inextinguishable wrath and pouring out jxissiou like “A beau: iiul embodied storm.” A m&ntonl ln't have been quieter than Rowe was, if he had taken chloroform. He suffered iutUlt u}K>n injury, and when she smote him on the right cheek (metaphysi cally speaking) he turned to her the left also. Soon after .vas enacted the kicking business first above referred to, aud tiU'ti it was that the shrieks of Lola t rought to ht*r rescue her agent, the young man ot twenty-five, first men tioned, who choked Mr. Rowe, the oidI*of 1 *of man seteotv. About this stage of affairs, a large crowd having col lected around, attracted by the uusnal scene and by the nn melodious haranguing ofthe pugnacious Lola—whose language at the time savored of any kind but that pre scribed iu the ritany—the fair w,‘Trios escaped from the clutches of the police and went home to her downy pillow’ to repose—perhaps to sleep.”
