The prospect in South-western Georgia. We were at Americua last week where the ses sion of (lie Superior Court of’ Sumter county, brought together gentlemen from nearly every county in the 2d District. The reports from every county except one are highly favorable to the suc cess of Democracy. Our friends were nevermore confident of victory, and never more deserving of it than at this time. In most of the counties they have nominated good and strong men, and are de termined to eleet them. We feel confident that Algerine Federalism will find but little sympathy in South-western Georgia. James Johnson, lire am phibious nominee of the Webster men in the 2d District, has been all things by turns, and nothing long. He once professed to be a Democrat, but the Democracy were afraid to trust him. He then be came a hanger on of Messrs. Toombs and Stephens, and signed llteir bill of indictment against General Scott. Ofcourse he then considered himselfa mem ber o! the Webster party, and he has since enlisted into the Algerine rangers. We believe the gen tleman has never been very particular what party he belonged to, provided the pay was good. His principles, like Joseph’s coat, are of many colors, and his political coat was made to wear either side out, according to circumstances. Against this pie bald politician the Democracy have nominated the gallant young Colquitt, a knight without fear, and without reproach, and if dame Fortune has as good taste as most other Ladies, she will be sure to crown him with her favors. The Democracy of the 2d District have determined that Colquitt shall re present them in the next Congress, and whatever the Democracy determine, that they generally per form ; so that Mr. James Johnson, like Capt. Mar tin Scott’s coon, might as well come down.— Tele graph. South-western Railroad Extension. The Georgian says:—At the meeting of Direc tors of the .South-western Railroad, held at Macon, on the lull inst., it was voted unanimously I< ex tend the rood the distance of about thirty-five miles beyond Americas, provided planters and others along the line of the proposed extension will furnish two-fifths of the estimated cost of the work. Two fifths will he $225,000. according to the estimates. The extension will be in a right line through the 12th district of Lee, and the 4'h of Randolph, into the 3d of Baker county, striking the boundary of the latter at a point nearly mid-Way between Albany and Fort Gaines. The survey is to be made imme diately. We are informed that there is not the slightest doubt that the planters will subscribe the amount required of them. It is of course known to our readers that the road from Oglethorpe to Atnoricus has been for months under contract—the work in a state of vig orous prosecution. [From the Boston Daily Advertiser, Aug. 3.1 The New Constitution of Massachusetts—Adjournment of the Convention. On the day of the adjournment of the Con vention,the 11 til inst., it was in session, with the exception of a recess at one o’clock P. M. and another at seven, of an hour each, from nine o’clock on Monday morning to two on Tues day. During that period the final act of the Convention, embracing a summary of its labors from the commencement, was reported for the first time, forming a compact printed pamphlet of forty pages- It was read over, chapter by chapter, discussed in many of its parts, and a large number of questions were taken on va rious propositions, some by yeas and nays, and others by count. No material alterations, how ever, were made from the form of the original report except in mere matters of detail. All the measures of the majority were carried by a large superiority of numbers. In this document, all the amendments pre viously agreed on, in resolutions discussed in committee of the whole, and twice read and adopted by the Convention, are incorporated methodically with the existing constitution, em bracing all the provisions of that instrument, and its successive amendments not superseded, and excluding all parts which are so superseded, either by previous amendments, or by the reso lutions of the present Convention. The parts of the present constitution thus re tained, together with the most importantamend inents now adopted, consisting of fourteen dis tinct chapters, and occupying thirty-eight prin ted pages, are submitted to the people for their ratification or rejection, in a single act. A va riety of less important amendments now propos ed, to the number of seven, are submitted in dis tinct propositions, for acceptance or rejection by the people, by distinct votes. If accepted, they will be hereafter incorporated in the con stitution under the heads specified; and it re jected, they will for the most part hardly bo missed, and some of them, if missed, we con ceive not to be regretted. Among the present amendments thus incor porated in the proposition No. 1, are— -Ist. One which entirely changes the organi zation and manner of election ot the Senate, making the members eligible in forty single dis tricts, by a plurality of votes, instead of being elected in districts composed of entire counties, by a majority of votes, wherever that can he at tained, but in case ot failure by joint ballot ot the two branches, from the two candidates for each seat on the popular ballot. This amend ment was concurred in by almost general con sent. 2. It is provided that the council shall lie elected by the people, one member in each of eight districts, each council district to be coin posed of’’five contiguous senatorial districts. The members of the council are to be styled, if the orthography of the committee who reported the draft of the act adopted is to be followed, not counsellors, as heretofore, but couneil lors.” 3. Anew organization of the House ot Re presentatives, which is to consist ot four hun dred and seven members, elected annually, and four hundred and thirty oneelected on the years of valuation of estates. These representatives are assigned by an apportionment entirely new, which we shall explain hereafter. 4. There are some important alterations, in regard to the majority, and plurality of votes to be required in elections, of a somewhat complex character. 5 The principal State officers, viz. tary of State, Treasurer, Auditor, and Attorney General, are to be chosen by the people. 6th An important change is proposed in the tenure ot judicial appointments—the term of of fice of Judges of the Supreme, Judicial, and other courts, being limited to ten years, instead of being during good behavior. 7th. Judges of Probate, Registers of Probate and of Deeds, Sheriffs, District Attornies and Trial Justices, are to be chosen biennially by the people. Bth. The right of suffrage is opened to every male citizen, twenty one years of age and upwards, except paupers and persons under guardianship, who has been a resident in the common wealth one year, and in the town in which he may claim a’ right to vote six months —the condition of payment of a State or county tax being dispensed with. 9th. Provision is made for taking the sense of the people on the question of the expediency of a convention fora new revision ot the consti tution, in 1873, and in every twentieth year thereafter. It is also made the duty of the Leg islature to submit to the people the question of a convention for revising the constitution when ever they shall be requested so to do by votes of the people in towns and cities containing not less than a third part of the qualified voters. These are the principal, new provisions em braced in proposition No. 1. The seven other propositions, adopted in separate resolves by the convention, relating to writ of habeas corpus ; making jurors judges of the law in criminal ca . ses ; giving to State creditors the right to re cover ffieir claims by suit abolishing imprison ment for debt, except in cases of fraud ; pro hibiting the appropriation of school monies to any religious sect, “for the maintenance exclu sively of its own schools/’ prohibiting the cre.i’ tion of corporations by special acts, when un necessary ; and requiring the adoption, in . all banks to be hereafter established, of the New York system.

Consols are quoted at 97 1-8, The Turkish question is still unsettled, and doubts are increasing as to its final adjustment. Political Intelligence. The Eastern question, it is believed, has been nearly decided one way or the other. The prospect for peace is thought to be less favorable. The decision of the Czar would not be known, however, until the 12th prox. If he accepts, his troops will have to be with drawn from the disputed provinces. The conferees at Vienna will draw up a treaty, for the protection of Turkey in ail time to come. If the Czar refuses the ultimatum, or evades a reply, then the allied fleets will pass the Dardanelles, and active opera tions for the maintenance of Turk sli rights will be com menced. The conduct of the Russian Generals and the Prin cipalities indicates an intention to retain permanent possession. Russia shows no signs of retraction. It is stated that Austria will demand reparation from the United States, for the Costa affair, and that Turkey will he required to immediately procure his extradition. It is said that the Czar advised Austria to give the Uni ted States no pretence for interfering in the affairs of Europe. Later from the Fishing Grounds. New York, Aug. 17. Dates from Halifax have been received to the 1 3th inst. The American steamship Piinceton had been visited by Lord Ellesmere and other English officers, all of whom had been hospitably entertained. The English vessels were actively engaged in looking out for violations of the treaty stipulations, but no captures had been made. The Gardiner Case. Washington, Aug. 17.

NEGOTIATIONS AT ST. PETERSBURG. CO-OPERATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES- New York, Aug. 15. The steamer Humboldt arrived this evening from Southampton and Havre, bringing 380 passengers and Liverpool dates of the 3d inst. The America arrived at Liverpool on the 31st ult., and the Glasgow at Gree nock on the 30th ult. Among the Humboldt’s passengers is S. G. Good rich, late Consul at Paris. Russia and Turkey. —The Eastern question wears a less favorable aspect. It was feared that the Empe ror of Russia would decline to withdraw his forces from the Principalities, as stipulated in the propositions of the three Powers. The English and French fleets would in that case be ordered to pass the Dardanelles, and a peaceful settlement of the dispute be greatly jeoparded. A telegraphic dispatch, dated Constantinople, vJuly 20th, states that the Porte and representatives of the great Powers, had accepted the proposition of the Aus trian Minister, which arranged that the English and French fleets should withdraw from Besiea Hay. whilst the Russians evacuated the Principalities. Turkey would then send an Ambassador to open negotiations at St. Petersburg. Conferences wete also to be opened at Vienna by the consent of Russia. Great uneasiness had also been created by a decree of the Czar ordering a fresh levy of recruits through out the Empire. This was interpreted as looking to war. The statement is re-asserted that the United States had oftered to assist the Porte with money and active forces. The intelligence from the Principalities was important. Moldavia had declared itself independent of the Porte and refused to pay for the tribute ; a similar movement is expected in Wallachia. It is asserted that the Porte intends addressing an ultimatum to Russia, in which, after paying due regard to the rights of the Sultan’s Christian subjects, that sov ereign declares that if in spite of these repented assu rances the Czar should persist in ottering war, the Porte is resolved to accept it, but that the responsibility must lie with Russia. It is also asserted that this document has been communicated to the Ambassadors of France and England. Orders have been sent to the Hospodars of Molda via and Wallachia, ordering them to quit the Princi palities and retire to the right bank of the Danube. The Egyptian fleet arrived at Constantinople, on the 19th, with 12,000 men. Admiral Dundas, of the En glish fleet, with all his captains, had been on a rccon noissance of the fortresses. Another Ministerial crisis was feared at Constantino ple. There was a rumor in Vienna of a secret treaty be tween the United States and the Porte and the proba ble cession of Marmarriza. Three American frigates were said to he in the Bosphorus. Russia had demanded of Persia the cession of the Province of Tauris, jn lieu of .80,000,000 roubles due her. T From the Charleston Papers. ] NEWS FROM EUROPE, ARRIVAL OF THE HUMBOLDT. Baltimore, August 15, 1853. The United States Mail steamship Humboldt, Cap tain D. Lines, has arrived at New-York from Havre, via Cowes, having left the former port on Wednesday, the 3d inst. The Liverpool Markets. —The demand for Cotton since the departure of the Africa on the 30th ult. has been active. No change of prices, however, had taken place. The sales for the three days comprised 25,000 bales, of which speculators took 3,030 and exporters 3,000, leaving 19,000 bales of all descriptions to the trade. State of Trade.—ln the manufacturing districts of England trade had slightly improved. The London Money Market.—Consols had declin ed and were quoted at 97 5-8. The Havre Cotton Market had evinced no quotable change. The sales during the week ending the 2d inst. comprised 4,000 bales. Orleans was quoted at from 74 a 95 frs. Affairs in Eurofe.— lt was feared that the Em peror of Russia would not withdraw the troops from the Principalities, in which ease the allied Herts would pass the Dardanelles. A dispatch from Constantinople, dated the 20th ult,, states that the Porte and the great Powers of Europe had agreed to the proposition of Austria that the fleets be withdrawn and the principalities evacuated simulla neously. The London and Paris Funds, however, had declined in consequence .of a statement made in the Paris Constitutional to the effect that England and [.'ranee would not agree to this arrangement. It was reported that the Czar of Russia had ordered fresh levies of troops to be made. Moldavia had declared itself independent, and re fused to pay tribute to the Porte. A similar m wement was anticipated in M nllachia. It was asserted that the Porte was about to issue an ultimatum stating that if the Czar were not satisfied with the assurances of the Sultan, and persisted in of feting war, Turkey would accept it. The Hospadars in the Principalities had been order ed to retire to the right bank of the Danube. The Egyptian fleet arrived at Constantinople on the 19th ult. with 12,000 troops.

The whole j number of deaths for the twenty-four hours ending 6 | o’clock this morning was 219, of which 191 were from yel- j low fever. ’ The Mobile Tribune says : We may slate, on the best authority, that the type of the disease is entirely unlike that which is now prevailing in New Orleans. : There it was marked at first, and is now, by groat mor tality—one perhaps out of six or ten cases only being within the reach of curative means. Here not one in ten but does not yield to them. We know of five of our most respectable physicians who have, perhaps, in the aggregate, twenty cases, and there is no danger in any of them of a fatal termination. One of these gentle men, who has had much experience in treating the dis lease, assures us that he has never seen it developed in a form so mild and manageable. It may be concluded from this that the disease, if it assume the epidemio form, will be characterised by lit tle mortality. Progress of the Yellow Fever at New Orleans. New Orleans, Aug. 13. There were about 200 deaths from Yellow Fever in New Orleans on Friday. New Orleans Market. New Orleans, Aug. 13. Twenty-five hundred bales of cotton were sold du ring the week in New Orleans.

A irighiful railroad collision took place on the Provi dence and Worcester Railroad about eight o’clock this morning, near Pawtucket. It occurred between the regular up train from this city and an excursion train irom Wieting’s. The excursion train was out of time, and met the up train at Valley Falls. The collision was terrific. The train coming down suf fered mo.-t, the cars being driven together, two of them be ing completely interlocked The engines w’ere totally de molished. The number of persons killed is twelve, as far as ascer tained, and probably three times that number are seriously injured, besides a very large number bruised and slightly wounded. The up train received but little damage, and no person in that train was injured to speak of. The excursion train consisted of six long passenger cars, densely crowded. The collision occurred at a sharp curve, beyond Central Falls ; the down train was behind time, and proceeding at the rate of forty miles an hour, to reach the switch, from which there is a double track to Providence. In one minute the train w ould have reached the switch; the up train w-aited the usual time at Pawtucket, and then, having the right to the road, proceeded at a slow rate around the curve. The cause of the accident is said to have been owing to a variation of two minutes in the watches of the engineers. The greater portion of the killed and wounded belonged to Uxbridge and Whitensville. The following are the names of the killed: Rev. Mr. Penny, Episcopal clergyman, officiating nt Grace Church, Providence; Mr. Wood, of Northbridgo ; John H. Perkins,fireman, of Uxbridge. He leaves a wife and two children ; Mrs. Plant and Peter Plant, wife and son of George Plant, of Whitensville ; Mrs Mallory, wife ofS.B. Mallory, of Central Falls; A. Charlesw’orth, of Whitensville ; Thomas Browni, do.; Wni. Fullerlove, do.; Mrs Caroline Richmond, wife of John Richmond , Peter Rogers and Mr. Rogers, brothers, of Milford. Wounded. —Francis Reed, of Whitensville ; George Plant, do.; Hosea Ballou, Woonsocket; Edward Green, engineer of the up train, badly—several ribs broken ; Stew art Winslow, of Whitensville, badly ; Daniel Ganty, do., slightly; Martin C. Jefferson, brakeman, leg and arm broken ; John Brown, of Whitensville, four ribs broken ; Moses Bolton, badly; Mrs. Gladding, wife of Charles Gladding,of Pawtucket, slight’ >hn Marshall, of North I Uxbridge, leg broken ; Gee j, J’ .of Whitensville. do.; | John Crane, do., badly bruised ; b?i.'jyler White, of do.; Mr. Southwick, Superintendent of the road. And others, whose names have not been ascertained yet. The first ear of the excursion train was smashed to pieces, the tender having been driven through it. Most, if not all, of the passengers in this car were either badly wounded or killed. A large number who escaped serious injury were cut by the splinters. The second car was not much injured, but was driven through into the third car, about half its length ; the five rear cars were only partially damaged. In the first passen ger car there were only twelve or fifteen passengers, three or four of whom were killed outright, while nearly all the I remainder were more or less injured. In the third car the effects of the collision were frightful —some of the passengers were killed instantly, ana others received serious, if not fatal injuries. The car leaped over the second, and killed three persons who were attempting to escape by the windows. Later from Mexico. By the arrival of the steamship Texas, Capt. Place, from Vera Cruz, which place she left on the | Bth inst, we are in receipt of news from the city of Mexico to the 3d inst., and from Vera Cruz to the 7th iost. By an order from the President, the remains of the celebrated “guerilla” chieftain, Padre Jarauta, are to be exhumed and taken to Guanajuato, to be S there re-inurred, and to have military honors paid i them, and a monument to be erected over them ; ! to honor th memory of one who knew how to sa i orifice himself in defence of his comUry. They have founded in the seminary of Morelia, an academy of Belles letters. The Diario Official notices the appearance in the capital of Guerrero of anew epidemic, of a very singular nature, similar to the yellow fever, which is very destructive. It makes its appearance in a varieiy of forms; the patients terminate their existence by vomiting blood. Many of the most respectable inhabitants of Guerrero have died from it. The cholera ha 9 entirely ceased in Vera Cruz. The announcement of the fact is made officially. We have a specimen of summary justice admin istered in Mexico, which would do honor to our own “frontier tribunals.” The murderers of the Swiss traveller, at Rio Frio, we-e tried by a battalion of soldiers on the 23d, at Texeoco. The 24th was a feast day ; the 25th they were sentenced, and placed en capilla , (in chapel,) and on the 26th they were executed. 1 Mrs. President Santa Anna has arrived at Tacu baya, and joined her husband. On the Ist inst., she received the felicitations of the various corpora tions, military corps, etc., etc., upon her happy te turn to her native country. She enjoys the title of “La Exma. Senora Presidenta.” The Northern States, Durango, Zacatecas, Chi huahua, Nuevo Leon, etc., do not enjoy a moment’s quiet from the dcpredat.ons of the Indians. Fearful Calamity. Seldom have we been more painfully excited than by hearing the sad lidings leceived yesterday morn ing, that the family of Mr. William Hall had been thrown into irremediable sorrow by the loss of mother and daughter, in a single moment, and in the midst of seeming enjoyment. During this summer, the family of Mr. Hall have resided in the house of Col. Minge, at Point Clear; to which they retired three or four weeks ago, in the vain hope of restoring a sick child. After this loss, the family still continued at the Point, where they enjoyed the finest health, from constant bathing and wholesome exercise. Late on the evening of Thursday Mrs. Wm. Hall was bathing,—as was the constant custom —with her sister-in-law, and her own daughter, Caroline, an interesting girl about ten years old. Tbis sweet little creature, in the fresh enjoyment of the water and loulliful spirits ventured a little too tiir. In an instant, maternal affection in its selt-sacrifieing spirit, drove the alarmed parent to the rescue of the poor child ; but being equally unable to resist the deep wa ter, parent and child periehed together. Who can picture such a moment as this ! The onlv witnc-s of the catastrophe was Mrs. Joseph Hal!, who, equally impotent to save, could onlv call loudly fur help! Alas lat such an hour and"place, aid was too far, too slow for succor.— Molherand daughter had found a watery grave and in each other’s arms. The sad nigi t was past in vainefl'oiis to find the bodies; and when found, life was too thotoughly extinct for restoration.—iWo bile Register. From Deseret. Mr. Blanchard, agent of the United Slates mail contractors, arrived in Sacramento with the mails and files of the Deseret News down tot he 18th June. The grasshoppers are performing the work of destruction at a fearful rate in the Valley, and whole fields of grain have been ruined. The News deplores the calamity, and says : ‘The I ord of the harvest oniv knows howto furnish gleaners for his wheat fields, when his stewards have not either the ability or disposition to glean and save all he has committed to their charge, so that nothing be lost.” The Legislature assembled in joint session on the Ist of June, and after a three days’ session, during which they passed ten acts, adjourned. Hon. Chief Justice Read arrived on the 5 h ultimo, and took the oath ot office, administered by Brigham Young in person. News from Oregon and Washington. The dates from Portland are to June 30th.

Lennard to Miss Annie E , daughter of Col. William and Mrs. Re becca C. James, all of the above place. obituary. Every day’s observation teaches us that,separations upon earth must necessarily take place. However heart-renaing the consequences and saddening the reality, no human power can arrc9t the fiat of God, that reigns uncontrolled in Heaven and Earth. We desire to acknowledge the su premacy of infinite wisdom and bow submissively to the will of Him who doeth all things right; yet there are cases where the heart feels more sensibly the stroke of Providence. Such we believe are the feelings and sentiments realized and experienced by the aged parents, relatives and friends in the death of Miss Sarah A. Burt, who departed this life at her father’s residence in Columbus, on the 22d day of April, 1853, aged 18 years 6 months and 9 days. In the early departure of this estimable young lady, there is clearly depietea the truth of God’s word—that life is a span—that it is a vapor that appeareth for a little time and then vani-heth away. Though short and transitory as the morning flower was her career, yet she has left behind liv ing testimonials of her cultivated mind; her devoted piety and her enlarged benevolence. She graduated June 30th, 1852, at the Female Institute. For four years she was under the tuition of Mr. and Mrs. Slade. Her mind was fully developed by a rigid and thorough training in a liberal course of education. In this Institution she was distinguish ed by good scholarship, diligent application and a cheerful obedience to Iter preceptors. After graduating she entered upon the profession of teaching, and was engaged in con ducting a school at the time of her last illn. ss. The ruling principle of her heart was to do good. In the school, at home and abroad, in the Church and Sabbath school, this ennobling trait of her character was strongly displayed. She was truly the comfort of her aged parents. They loved her ardently and looked forward with pleasing anricipations of the realization of their hopes in her being the stay and support of their declining years. In view of all j her promised usefulness, the sympathizing heart can well imagine the anguish which pierced the parental bosom, when all their fond hopes were blasted forever. If no light broke forth from this sad and gloomy picture, inconsolable would be the heans of these bereaved parents, but in her daily walk and conversation were exhibited the strong evi dences of a life consecrated to God. In early life she had made a profession of religion. It was her happy lot to realize in a high degree the spirit of Christianity. She loved to talk of her Saviour, and in her correspondence with relatives and friends she delighted to record the feelings and testimonies ofa Saviour’s love spread abroad in her heart. She was a member of the Methodist E. Church. In this responsible station her Christian de portment was worthy of imitation. In the Sabbath school her ardent desire to train the young heart for the society of Heaven was conspicuous. She was loved by her pupils,and their attachment was only surpassed by her devotion to promote their happiness. But amidst this usefulness and surrounded by dear friends she was taken aw’ay—and can we doubt that she is happy—in that unseen world, which she sought with a believing heart ? No ! her happiness is beyond all casualty. No corroding cares can ever annoy that peaceful bosom. In the society of kindred spirits, she is permitted to sing in higher strains the praises ot her God and Redeemer. Shall we lament her departure ; can we wish her back amidst the trials and temptations of this unfeeling world? No, dear parents and sisters, dry up your tears! let your hearts swell with joy. Soon you will join your dear Sarah and unite with her in anthems of glory to God and the Lamb forever. A .Friend. Teresa Anne, only daughter of Timothy Quin, of Enon, Macon county, Ala. The deceased: was a strict member of the Catholic Church, and after a life of innocence and purity, when death laid his cold hands upon her, she feared not, but rather wished to appear before the judgment seat of God. Although in many a neart thou hast left a blank which may not be easily filled, still thy friends are consoled, for we know “that thou art not dead, but sloepeth.” Born for a brighter world, beyond the skies, Thy young heart shrunk not at thy Master’s call; Though ’neath the cold earth, now thy body lies, Thy spirit dwells in Heaven’s eternal half.
