G. RAIFORD, Ordinary. “the union of the states and the sovereignty of the STATES.” COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 15, 1858. FROM UTAH AND THE MORMONS. [From the Los Angels Vineyard, April 24th;] Intelligence has been received in this city from Utah that the. Mormons had evacuated Salt Lake City about the middle ofMareh, and that the Uni ted States troops were about to enter the city and occupy it as a military post. This report undoubtedly came front Salt Lake City about the time stated, but, from a comparison of dates, we are compelled to discredit it. [Correspondence of the Alia Calilornian.J Los Angf.les, April 23d. Thers is some very interesting news from Utah. It comes through a parly arrived at San Bernardi no in buckskin dresses on the 20th inst. In the party were Messrs. D. Clark, D. Starks, Jo. Mat thews, and others, recent residents of San. Bernar dino, and several old residents of Salt Lake. Colonel Kane, who appears to be acting as cotn sioner, with a power to treat, after a conference with Brigham Young, had gone to Camp Scott, as Fort Bridger is now called, ft was believed that the movements which followed were the results of his conferences with the conflicting parties. Brig ham Young has issued a circular to all his follo wers, commanding them not to fight, nor even to oppose the Army of Gen. Johnston, and that as the army advances they retire from the northern to the southern counties. He commands his people to avoid all contact with the soldiers, as it is not good for them to meet. With their wives, their little ones, and their herds, they are to vacate the country of Salt Lake including the city, which is to be given up to the use of the military post. This circular was seen and read by these gentlemen, but they did not bring one of them on. When they left the movement had already begun and they assert that by this time the city is vacated, and the army of Gen. Cumming is in operation. All thoughts of war or fighting are abandoned, and it is believed that peace will prevail from this time forth. There no longer exists among them any intention of destroying their property or leav ing it, believing that lor all lossps they sustain in consequence of the c ccupai ion by the troops they will have a claim upon the government. The retiring population are to form colonies in the South, upon the Colorado, the Mohave, and in the valleys of the Sierra Nevada. Mftny of those who left, San Bernardino were badly treated in Salt Lake because they “came from hell.” It is said that the people have ceased to use su gar, tea, coffee, and other articles which are con sidered indispensable in housekeeping, because these things are not to be had. There is also said to be a scarcity of material for women’s clothing, and many of them go dressed in pants and coats. The people of the southern settlements are al most in open rebellion against the church. They are taxed so enormous for the support of their army that their substance is nearly eaten up. The tax amounts to 33 per cent. r of their whole prop erty. These facts are discredited from the fact that they come through Mormons. The next two weeks will verify or disprove them. [From the San FraueiscogGiobe, May 4, g From private advices received in this city we understand that the Mormons are actually engag ing in erecting extensive fortifications on the trail towards Oregon, some hundreds of miles north of Salt Lake. We are told that at one of these forts 1 one hundred men are constantly engaged, and that other positions are also being marked out and fortified. This looks like an em gration r:ort - ward, and a determined resistance to an “enemy n the rear.” From Kansas. St. Louis, May 31.—The Kansas correspondent of the Democrat, ot this city, gives many rumors and conflicting accounts of the recent troubles in”the southern part of the territory. It is stated that some two hundred settlers have organized near Sugar Mound, and a still larger number of Missourians encamped a short distance from them, it was thought a battle would ensue between the parties. Gov. Denver has commissioned Sheriff Samu el Walker to proceed to the scene of disturbance, and report to him when he deemed it proper that active measures shall betaken to restore order. The latest news from Ossawatomie stated that that place was’threatened by three hundred Mis sourians, and messeugers had been dispatched to Lawrence for arms. It appears from correspondence emanating from the headquartets of the Kansas militia, published in the Lawrence Republican, that Captains Mont gomery and Payne were deprived of their commis sions on the 18th of February. The Ossawatomie Herald confirms the accounts of the murder in Lynn county, on the 19th. It is rumored that Crockett’s party is now be sieged at Fort Scott by a party of free State men, who are waiting reinforcements, in order to take the place by storm. The Democrat has information from a gentle man who has just arrived from Kansas, that a Deduly United States Marshal who has been sent in pursuit of Montgomery, had been taken prisoner by the latter on Thursday night last. After some conference he was released. From California. In addition to the news heretolore communicated by telegraph, we select a few other items of news of interest: The Napa Reporter suggests that a convention of delegates from all the mining counties of the State be held in San Francisco to consider what is best to be done in regard to the unjust legislation which compels the agricultural and commercial population to bear too great a pioportion of the expenses of the State government. R. E. Doyle, late of San Francisco, and G. H. Giddings, of Texas, have purchased the contract for carrying the United States mails between San Diego an San Antonio, awarded to James E. Birch, who was lost on the Central America. Col. Fremont arrived in Pear Valley, Mariposa county, on the 16th ultimo, and was welcomed by all with the greatest rejoicing. Public respect was shown by the lighting of huge bonfires on Mount Bullion, and the firing of quicksilver flasks heavily charged with powder in lieu of a cannon. Festiv ities were kept up until a late hour. The overland mail arrived at San Diego, about two weeks ago, in twenty-four days front San An tonio, and the Dieguenos had burned some powder in glorification over the speed attained. From the Charleston Courier, June 7. From Key West’ The U. S. Transport steamer Atlantic arrived in this port yesterday from Key West. We are indebted to iter commander, Capt. Talbot, for a copy of the Kdy of the Gulf of the 29th nit. The Atlantic embarked companies B and H artillery, atPunta Rassa, on the 2d inst., left com pany Bin command of Capt. J. M. Brannon, to garrison the works at Key West, and brings com pany H eighty-seven men, under Capt. Seymour, to garrison Fort Moultrie. The Atlantic will leave here for Fort Dallas on the Bth inst., to embark Col. Wynders’ command for Key West, and thence to Pensacola, to garrison thewoiksol that harbor. The U. S. steamer Water Witch, Commander Rodgers, arrived at Key Weston the 3d instant from Norfolk, was coaling and would leave on a cruise on the 14th. Her Britannic Majesty’s gun boat Jasper, Lieut. Pim, from a cruise, was at Key West, and had steam on when the Atlantic left. The Key of the Gulf, reporting the departure ofthe British steamer Styx, from Key West, of 25th ult., -says: The visit of the Styx to our harbor was, no doubt to watch the movements of the brig Huntress ; but as she was found to be in the possession of our custom-house officers, the English commander deemed it wise to “lay low and keep silent.” “Pray doctor, had your mother a son?” Let me see! she had two daughters, but whether she ever had a son, —I really cannot recollect.” [From the Charleston Mercury.j Brunswick Ga., Messrs. Editors : Kansas and the Utah question having in a measure disappeared from the Stage, I trust you will give me sufficient space in your columns to call attention to the beautiful and rap idly increasing place that heads this communica tion. A short sketch of its past history may not be inappropriate. Upwards of an hundied years since the British Government selected Brunswick as the site of a city', and the Provincial Governor, Oglethorpe, under instructions from them (then) reigning monarch, George 11, caused the city to be laid out. From various causes to us unknown no progress was made in the settlement of Bruns wick until sometime in tha year 1836 ; a company of Northern gentlemen, who had purchased a con siderable portion of the old town of Brunswick aud most ofthe land immediately adjoining, procured an Act of Incorporation from the Legislature of Georgia, and proceeded to lay out their lands and sell the same for town lots under their corporate name of The Proprietors of the City of Brunswick The commercial crisis of the next year had its ef fect, and Brunswick lay dormant until within the last two years, when, owing to the United States Government having selected this port as a site for a naval depot, new life now has been infused, aud it now bids fair to be one of the most important seaports in the South. Brunswick is situated on a beautiful bluff of close sand, extending nearly three miles in length, at an elevation from ten to twenty feet above high water on the north shore of a great inlet or arm of the sea, as Turtle River, and at a distance of about eight miles from the ocean. Eighteen feet water can be found at the bar at low W'ater, and the average rise of the tide is between six and half and seven feet. About the time ofthe original location by Oglethorpe a Brit ish seventy-four gun-ship entered the harbor and lay at anchor off the town for a whole year. A fine sea air, abundance of pure water, and salu brity of climate at all seasons of the year, combin ed with the deep water, bold shore, and facility of approach to the harbor—no pilotage being required, there being no current to contend against—are some of the natural advantages of Brunswick, and must render it the cheapest commercial port in the United States. One drawback upon the prosperity of Bruns wick hitherto, has been the want of communi cation with tlie interior. This, however, will be remedied by the Brunswick and Florida Rail road, now in course of construction. The annual meeting of the stockholders took place on the 13th May SYid from the President’s report, a copy of which I have sent you, presents a highly flatering statement of the condition ot the Company.— This road is intended to run from Brunswick to the port of St. Marks, on the Gulf of Mexico, via Tallahasse, Fla., with a branch to Albany on the Flint River. I will quote to you a portion of the President’s (Coi. Henry G. Wheeler) report as follows: “We present to you a Company having about thirty-one miles of road in daily operation, not a single trip having been lost since it was opened— and carrying the United Sattes mail—with thirty miles beyond tlie present running point graded, about eighteen of which are cross-tied ; a floating debt of $75,000 —entirely within the control of the Company, and against which we have assets and available means, and cash to the amount of 33,- 000; and with a total mortgage debt of eight thou sand five hundred dollars.” Tlie steamers between Florida and Savannah pass here three times a week, and it would be a very pleasant trip to run down here from Charles ton—far better than going to Sullivan’s Island, for we have as much ofthe sea breeze and none of the mosquitoes. Wehave every inducement for an idle man in Summer, and you should come down and see us Capital fishing and hunting, and the finest kind of oysters all the year round. Tom Hillier, formerly of the City Hotel in your city, and lately of the Rantowles House, has the Oglethorpe House in his place. He has leased the establishment for seven years and is keeping a first rate house. The Hotel is a large four story building, with piazzas all around up to the third sto ry with a wing attached, and is situated on tks bank of Turtle River. Here we never fail to have a breeze, and the nights are deliciously cool. I have been living at the hotel some fifteen months, and have only known two legitimately hot days. There has been a great improvement in the hotel since it has passed into Mr. Hiller’s hands. His fare is capital—the very best that can be had in Savannah or Charleston—and everything that the country affords are to be found there. Carriages, horses, capital servants, a billiard saloon and bar, and last, though not least, a yacht for sailing excursions, can always be found at the Oglethorpe. Messrs. Editors, it would add ten yews to your life to leave dear old dusty Charleston fora week, and enjoy a sail over the beautiful bay upon which Brunswick is situated. My paper does not afford me space to eay any more about this, my new home. My thoughts, as those ofevery Carolinian, still revert to the State that gave me birth ; but I must say that I have never met a place with greater natural advaDtges. It only wants people; not “the people” such as Car lyle terms ‘‘the great unwashed but people who can profit by and improve them. Such I trust, we will soon have, and when we do, Brunswick will have a proper place in the picture. We have ma ny Carolinians here already, and I trust that the State .that supported and assisted Oglethorpe in the settlement of Georgia, will cherish and build up this favorite location. W. B. F. From the .-outhern Georgian. Hon. M. J. Grawford. The petitions for extra mail service between Fort Gains and Bainbridge, ofthe citizens of Clay, Early, Miller and Decatur counties, sent some few weeks ago, to our efficient representative, Hon. M J. Crawford, were duly presented to the Depart ment by him. We are sure, from the spirit of his very polite letter, relative to the subject, that no man would be more gratified than Mr. Crawford to see the object of the petitions consummated. — But, let us hope on —when the Treasury again gets flush, he’ll no doubt try again. Mr. Crawford will please accept thanks for his effort in behalf of tlie citizens of the above named counties. REPLY OF THE DEPARTMENT TO HON. M. J. CRAWFORD. POST OFFICE DEPT., J Contf,act Office, > May 19,1858. ) Sir :—I have the honor to acknowledge the re ceipt through you, of petitions from citizens of Clay, Miller, Early and Decatur counties, Georgia, for increasing mail facilities between Blakely and Bainbridge, in that State. Weekly tnaily service was put in operation be tween Blakely and Bainbridge on the Ist of Octo ber, 1856; and afterwards, at your instance, an ad ditional trip per Week was ordered, which com menced in February, 1857, and has continued ever since. And, in March last, on application made through you, the semi-weekly route irom Blakely via Steam Mill, to Chattahoochee, Fla., was order ed to be changed to end’ at Bainbridge. This or der took effect on the Ist ultimo. So that, since that date, there has been a four-times-a-week com munication between Blakely and Bainbridge—the mail leaving the former on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday; reaching the latter on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday ; aod reaching the former on Wednesday and Sun day at I P. M., and Wednesday and Saturday at 7 P. M. Considering these facts, together with the press ent depressed condition of the finances, the Depart ment feels constrained to decline incurring increas ed expense for mail transportation between the points named. Yery respectfully, Your ob’dt. servant, E. L. CHILDS. For the Second Ass’t. P. M. Gen’l. Hon. M. J. Crawford, Ho. of Reps. Troubles are like habits—they grow bigger by nursing. Don’t meet trouble half way for they are not worth the compliment. Army Movements. Among tlie passengers ofthe steamer Minneha ha, which left St. Louis for Leavenworth on Sun day Inst, were Gen. Calhoun and family, Gen. Eas ton, Maj. Martin, U. S. A., Coi. Clarkson, and other noted gentlemen, together with a returning dele gation of the Masonic Order, which had come to this city some days ago on theJKate Howard. A correspondent at St. Joseph advises tlie St. Louis Republican that a portion of the second regi ment of United States infantry, withdrawn from garrison at the distant post ofFort Randall, loca ted towards the source of the Missouri, passed that place on the 25th inst., on their way to Fort Leav enworth. This detachment will occupy Fort Lea venworth during the absense of the col lecting there for the Utah expedition, as we have already learned by telegraph They were under the command of Capt. Lovell. The following gentlemen were the officers in command : Lieut. McMillan, adjutant; Captain Lyon, company B; Capt. Garener, company D ; company 11. They bring no news ftrom Fort Randall, but report everything quiet. We learn, from aj Carrolton (Mo.) paper, that the troops designed for Utah, ascending tlie Mis souri river, are deserting every chance they get.— On die steamer Oglesby, recently, there were three hundred troops, out of which there were fifty de sertions before that boat passed'Hill’s Landing.— It is 4 suspected by some that Mormons, in disguise, are following the soldiers, and afford those who are willing to desert an’opportunity to escape. The true and only reason, however, for this disposition to desert, lies in a general order issued a few weeks ago, forbidding payment to tlie troops until their arrival at Fort Maramie. Editors, Officers and the Law, “The Sheriff of this county informs us,” says the Thomasville Reporter, “that an individual con nected with the press of a neighboring town ap plied to him for his advertising, and offered to do it at an exceedingly low rate. The individual in formed him that he had obtained the advertising of another county by promising to do the business for nothing. Does it not occur to this man that such a course is exceedingly dishonorable?” Will the officers reflect that the law will not permit them to charge the people one price and pay an editor another I “And even if it did, is it not most unfair and unjust to do so ? We regret to have to speak of these things; but we must say that such conduct is shameful and ridiculous. We advise officers to select a paper in which to do their advertising, pay the regular rates, and not to think of speculating in their office at the expense oi the honest people of tlie country.” The Right Spirit. The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, have unanimously, through Mr. Mason, reported the following resol chons: Resolved, That American ships at sea, under our flag, remain under the jurisdiction of the country to which they belong, and therefore that any visi tation or molestation is an infraction of the sover ignty of the United States. Resolved, That these aggressions demand such unequivocal explanation as shall prevent their re currence forever in future. Resolved, That the Committee approves of the action ot the Executive, and are prepared to re commend such future legislation as circumstances may require. Cfias. Sumner Gone to Europe. Mr. Charles Sumner, tlie senator who represents the State of Massachusetts, has gone to Europe.— Before his departure lie issued a valedictory “to the people of Massachusetts,” in which he says he did not resign his seat in the Senate because he desired another “opportunity of exposing the hid eous barbarism of slavery, now more than ever transfused into the national government.” Mr. Sumner, we trust, will find a more congenial politi cal atmosphere on the other side ofthe water. He is certainly not satisfied with ou. government; and we confess to a little surprise that he should longer remain in the Senate. It must be exceed ingly disagreeable for Mr. Sumner to associate with “the barbarians” from the South ; and it is not at all improbable that the latter gentlemen do not find Mr. Sutnner the most delightful companion in the world. Mr. Sumner will feel better when he gets to Europe, and it will be a satisfaction to him to know that his absence will not be regretted.— Wash. Union. Washington States, June 3d. Douglas’ New Measure of Protection and Redress. Senator Douglas this morning introduced a bill to revive and put in force the act of the 3d of March, 1839, in relation to the North Eastern Boundary, with such modifications as make it ap plicable to the present controversy in regard to the right of search and visitation. The bill thus revived puts at the disposal of the President, to be used when necessary to resist the unjust claims of Great Britain, the naval and mil itia ofthe United States; authorizes him to call into service fifty thousand volunteers, or so much thereof as may be necessary ; and also appropri ates and puts at his disposal $10,000,000, with the right to borrow tlie same. It also authorizes the President, if he thinks it necessary, to send a spec ial ambassador to Great Britain. The act to con tinue in force for sixty days after the next meeting of Congress. The bill introduced by Mr. Douglas confers all these powers, in the precise language of the act of 1839, except that it strikes out “boundary,” and inserts “visitation and right ofsearch” in lieu of it, with one or two verbal alterations. The act of 3d March, 1839, which it thus oppor tunely proposed to revive, passed the Senate, on motion of Mr. Buchanan, by a unanimous vote up on the yeas and nays , the names of Benton, Buch anan, Calhoun, Clay, Crittenden, Webster, and others, being recorded in its favor. In the House of Representatives, the same bill passed by a vote of 197 in the affirmative, and six in the nega tive. The proposition now is therefore, to vest in President Buchanan the same power and discre tion which were awarded nineteen years ago to President Van Buren with such extraordinary una nimity, and which resulted in the establishment of a cordial peace and a restoration of fraternal feel ings. a m The editor of the New Orleans True Delta, whose prominence in the late Vigilance Commit tee movement in New Orleans, has made him pe culiarly obnoxious to the Thugs of that city, thus speaks of the effects already discernible from the organization of the committee: “Order Reigns in Warsaw.”— We organized ourselves into a small but efficient company of rangers last night, between ten and eleven o’clock, and marched around town through the usually most stiring portions, and about in those precincts where the Thugs usually most do congregate, brought together by the attractions of five-cent groggeries, and a desire to hatch schemes of out rage and assassination. Our perigrintions were unrewarded by any thing approaching to an item save this of stating that the quiet and order which reigned was most striking. We did not even see one disreputable character. The barkeepers were dozing over their counters or had closed their rooms. The most perfect propriety reigned. We imagined that abont that time all the Thugs who had any baggage were packihg it up preparatory to commencing their travels in searclt oi a more congenial climate at‘the shortest notice; a good many, we imagined, were just then very busy try ing to steal skiffs to transport their precious per sons across the river ; a good many, we imagined, were snugly stowed away in well selected places of concealment, whence they will be hunted out by the Vigilants like wolves from their dens ; and all, we did’nt imagine, but knew, were “shaking in their boots”—those who had boots to shake in, and those who did’nt did some good shaking barefoot. Many a Thug had a fearful presentiment last night, thata wholehide was a luxury that he wouldn’t enjoy more than twenty-four hours longer. Ver- ily, the diesiic of the Thugs has come at last—the “days of wrath” have burst upon them. New Party. —A movement is in progress, it is said, at Washington, contemplating the co-opera tion of all the opposition elements to the Adminis tration in the name of the People’s Party of the Union. The main features of the proposed organ ization are the ignoring of all questions productive of sectional strife ; the protection of popular rights a judicious system ot internal improvements; a settled and firm foreign policy: prevention of the landing of foreign criminals and paupers; the pro tection of the ballot-box, and an extended period of residence after naturalization as a condition to the exercise of the elective franchise; the fostering of American genius and art; and that every Territory rising into a State should have a constitution and laws framed by citizens of the United States who are permanent inhabitants, under such rules as Congress may prescribe pgr* The Richmond Whig and several other Southern papers, are advocating the building up of anew party to put down both the Black Re publican and Democratic parties. Its plan is a good one, remarks the Nashville Union, if it can be carried out. It expects Democrats to join in order to put down the Black Republicans, and the Black Republicans to join in order to put down the Dem ocrats ; and thus Black Republicans and Demo crats are to fraternize together to put down Black Republicans and Democrats. What a wonderful party this would be. It reminds us of those sing nificant lines of a forgotten poet : “Big fleas have little fleas, And these have fleas to bite ’em ; These fleas have lesser fleas, And so, ad infinitum .” Mississippian State Gazette. [3P” Judge Douglas, of Illinois, on Monday last, introduced into the Senate a bill to restrain and redress outrages upon the flag and citizens of the United States. The bill provides that “in case of flagrant violation „of the laws of nations by outrage upon the flag, soil or citizens of tlie Uni ted States, or upon their property, under circum stances requiring prompt redress, and when, in the opinion of the President, delay would be in compatible with the honor and dignity of the Re public, the President is hereby authorized to em ploy such force as he may deem necessary to pre vo,,t ti.o poifjcuiiiiuu ui‘ such outrages, and to ob tain just redress and satisfaction for the same, when perpetrated ; and it shall be his duty to lay the facts of each case, together with the reasons for his action in the premises, before Coegress, at the earliest practicable moment, for such farther action thereon as Congress may direct,” Hon. W. L. Yancey, in his speech in favor of reviving the slave trade, delivered at the late Mont gomery (Alabama) Convention, uttered the follow iug sentiment: “He did not love every section of his country equally. A man who knew no North, South, East or West, but was for the Union, was for the spoils without reference to the rights of the people’ His the speaker’s—first love was for those nearest him, if he had any left, then it was for his neighbor; whom he was directed to love as himself, and he would try to do so, if he would permit him. When justice is done to ourselves, our next care should be to see that we did no injustice to others.” Judge Taney. —The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press says: The rumor of the resignation of Chief Justice Taney is again revived, and a number of names are suggested in connection with the vacancy. Some of your jurists will doubtless be looking for ward to this, of all the judicial positions the most desirable. The venerable chief, beloved and re vered by all parties, is unquestionably more leeble than usual, and, although as clear in his intellect almost as he has ever been, is known to look to re pose and retirement. You may be well assured that there is some ground for the rumor that he contemplates a separation from the Supreme Court. Attorney General Black, Justice Ellis Lewis, Re verdy Johnson, James A. Bayard, are all canvass ed in connection with the position. Senator llayne on the Bank of his State.— We extract the following remarksof Senator Hayne of South Carolina, from a debate in the Senate on the 24th ult., in which reference was made to the banks of his State, and the action of its legislature in relation to those which suspended during the last winter: “Mr. Hayne—Not altogether Here let me say a very few words, with the Senator’s permission. I think the cause of our stopping was that we had a Bank ofthe State of South Carolina that has not a shadow of responsibility attached to it. It is the people’s bank; the capital is owned by the State government, and it is public property, to be stolen and speculated upon, and that bank had accommo dated almost every person in the community that was not well off; and when the crisis came, she went by the board first. If she could have stood, there would not have been a single bank in the State of South Carolina that would have suspen ded.” __ Mad’i.lf. Titiens. —This lady now, the brightest star of the musical stage, is a native of Hamburg, but of Hungarian extraction, and descended from a noble family. She was boin in 1834, and is thus in her 24th year. Like most great musical artists she showed a disposition for the art at an early age, and, after having received instruction from an eminent Italian master, she appeared on the Hamburg stage at fifteen. Her outset in life was romantic. A young man of considerable fortune fell in love with her and sought her hand; but her unconquerable attachment to the stage led her to reject his addresses. Her guardian (her father was then dead) used ail his authority and influ. ence to get to withdraw from the stage, and a sort of compromise was made that she should do so for twelve months at all events, to return to the stage at the end of that time should her inclina tion for it continue unabated. At the end of nine months her love of her art prevailed : she return ed to the stage, sacrificing to it her domestic pros pects. While performing at Hamburg she was seen and heard by the directors of tlie Opera of Frankfort-on-the-Maine, who immediately engag ed her. At Frankfort she appeared in the great parts which have since rendered her famous. Her growing celebrity attracted the attention of the di rector of the Imperial Theatre at Vienna, with whom she entered into an engagement for three years, of which one year is yet to run, her present visit to London being on acongetor a limited time. At Vienna she soon rose to the height of public favor, and was on the point of renewing her en gagement with the direction of the Imperial Thea tre, when Mr. Lumley, arriving at Vienna at a critical time, was enabled to make her a more eli gible proposal, and to secure her for her Majesty’s Theatre. Eccentricities of Genius. —The recent suicide of Herbert shows (as a Richmond cotemporary well remarks) that great intellectual development is not generally accompanied by a well-balanced character. Thackeray, in his lecture on Swift, af ter paying homage to his vast genius, asks signif icantly ; “But would you have liked to five with him?” Indeed, every lecture ofthe great satirist upon the eminent humorists of England shows us that a man may be a great author, or a fine poet, or a magnificent writer, and yet, as a man, be small, selfish, and utterly unworthy the repect and con fidence of his fellows. The most popular novelist of the age, Charles Dickens, whose pages are so sparkling and delightful, whose sentiments are so pure and noble, is personally, pretentions, syco phantic, and what is more important, deficient in the great virtue of truth, as his notes on America abundantly prove. Dr. Mackay, the really charm ing poet, who has lately visited the South, has just given us a touch of his moral quality in the London Illustrated News; and Sir Edward L. Bulwer, who describes virtue so beautifully in his more recent P. H. COLQUITT, Editor. novels, has exhibit and a degree of brutal selfishness and inhumanity to his wife that would disgrace a London coal-heaver.— Washington News. Another Freshet in the West. —A tele graphic dispatch to the Nashville papers, dated at Cincinnati, May 26th, states the heaviest rain ever known, fell in that region the previous night, and continued raining for about twelve hours. The river and creeks were rising with frightful rapidity —railway bridges had been carried off in all direc tions, and the Ohio had risen nine feet within the last twelve hours. A dispatch from St. Louis, on the 25th of May, states that the river there had risen about five feet, and was then three feet higher than at any former time this spring. The dispatch adds, “all the up per streams are rising, and the upper Mississippi rapidly.” A dispatch from Memphis, on the 25th, states that the river is rising at that point, and was with in fifteen inches of the highest point attained by the late rise. For the last two months the western and south western section of the Union has been visited by storms and inundations unprecedented in our his tory. The loss is beyond computation. Affair of Honor. —A correspondent of the Canton (Miss.) Citizen, writing from New Orleans gets off the following hit: It is stated, that another “affair of honor” was stopped by the timely interposition of friends, be tween a newsboy and a Dutch rag picker. It is darkly hinted that the affair is only temporarily postponed, not abandoned. The conflicting state ments of the respective friends of the belligerent parties, render it extremely difficult to arrive at the real origin of this lamentable difficulty. But it seems that in the pursuit of his arduous duties,the itinerent collector of abandoned scraps, laid his ir- hook, in an unlucky moment, upon a bun dle of newspapers, which the vender thereoi had placed upon the curbstone during a temporary en gagement in hostilities with a rival in trade. The Dutchman at once resigned the wares, on the de mand of the real owner, alleging, in excuse, that the dirty appearance of the papers led him to believe that they weresubjects in his lawful domain,and that, lie had no intention of trespassing upon the prop erty of another gentleman. This excuse, although well and honestly meant, no doubt, conveyed a disparaging estimate of his property, which no hon <,~u“ “‘ “■“‘’-y onuld bo expected to permit to pass unnoticed, and hence 4he .r „„tes ne tween the parties, which has created such a pro found sensation in the clubs and among the select circles to which they belong. It is much to be de plored that valuable members of the community should be so reckless of their livps. What if the gentleman did, in a hasty moment, declare that the newspapers were “tirty,” should not an admission on his part that, on further examination he discov ered that they were only “slightly soiled,” be suffi cient to justify the withdrawal the harsh and offen sive epithets, that he was a “bloody, blundering son of a sea-cock,” applied to him by his adversa ry? I think so. But Mynheer stoutly maintains, and in this he is backed by his friends, that noth ing less than a written admission of the erroneous ness of the assertion which assigned a quasi marine character to the avocation of his respected progeni tor, will satisfy his wounded honor. Celestial. —An astronomical writer, thus de scribes some of the wonders of tlie heavens, now visible : “That ruddy luminary now visible in the south erly section of the heavens every fair evening— —that red cornelian of the sky—is the veritable planet Mars. He is not far, in apparent position, from the constellation Scorpio. His distance from us, as he completes his circuit every twenty-two months, varies from about 240 million miles to fifty millions. This variation in distance occasions of course a diversity in his apparent size. When nearest to us, he appears somewhat as at present —large, glowing, brilliant, and some twenty-five times larger than when farthest from us. At his remote extreme, he is hardly notices hie as an or dinary star. His diameter is 4,200 miles. He presents to the good telescopic eye, spots on his full orbed surface, which have declared the fact and the period of his axial rotation. His orbitual speed is about fifty five thousand miles an hour. — He was in opposition to the sun nearly three weeks since. Mars is an object now worthy of more than a mere cursory glance. Give him an attentive look; and after having satisfied your eyes with his rubric rays, turn to wards the west, and view the silvery Venus, now in her crescent phase. These two planets are sometimes in conjunction ; and, perhaps thence arose the fable of autiq ity respecting the rude conduct of the fiery god Mars and the beautiful goddess Venus. Religion at Home. —“ Let them learn first,” says Paul, “to show piety at home.” Religion be gins in tiie family. One of tlie holiest sanctuaries on earth is home. The family altar is more ven erable than any altar in the cathedral. Ed ucation of the soul for eternity begins by the fire side. The principle of love, which is to be carried through the Universe, is first unfolded in the family. “I do not allow my religion to interfere with my business,” was very honestly uttered, not a thou sand years since. Such a rule of life in a model professor will block the influence of many a pray er with the ungodly. A Magnanimous Husband. —Not long since, a widow, one of thofee whom we are in the habit of calling well preserved, by the name of Madam II , yielding to the ardent solicitations of one of the young literary men of Paris, married him. On returning from the church and the may or’s office, the lady took her husband aside, and said. “Pardon me, my dear, for I have deceived yon:”—“In what ?” said the young man of letters, much troubled. “I told you that I had 200,000 francs, and .”—“Well, and you have not? Never mind ; it’s all the same to me.” “No that is not it exactly ; I have two millions!”—the hus band forgave her. An Irishman was challenged to fight a duel, but declined on the plea that he did not want to leave his mother an orphan. Few persons have any idea of the extent of busi ness in the Dead Letter Office. During a single year, in addition to $50,000 in money returned to its lawful owners, there have been found in the letters and restored drafts, checks and some other valuable papers amounting to three and a half mils lions of dollars. To Destroy Flies —To one pint of milk add a quarter of a pound of raw sugar and two ounces of ground pepper. Simmer them together for eight or ten minutes, and place it about in shallow dish es. The flies attack it greedily, and in a few mo ments are suffocated. By this method, kitchens, etc., mav be kept clear flies all summer, without the danger attending poison. The sun is called masculine, from its supporting and sustaining the moon, and finding her the wherewithal to shine always as she does of anight and from his being obliged to keep such a family of stars. The moon is feminine because she is con stantly changing. The church is feminine because she is married to the State, and time is masculine because he is so otten trifled with by the ladies.— Punch. Who Pops the Question in Cabot..— A most extraordinary’ custom prevails among the Vizees a powerful tribe occupying an extensive district in Cabul. among the mountains between Persia and India. The women chose their husbands and not the husbands their wives. If a woman be pleased with a man she sends the drummer ofthe camp to pin a handkerchief to hits cap with a pin which she has used to fasten her hair. The man is obliged to marry her| if he can pay her price to her father. Number 24
