Paris and London as more pacific. Proposi
tions for a compromise reached St. Petersburg

mit the French and English fleets at any mo
ment into the Dardanelles. A conspiracy
against the Sultan has been discovered, and fif
teen or the leaders were executed. The object

to Turkey r.nd Russia.

Affairs in China. —The advices from Chi
na are to the 14th of May. The insurgents
had raised the banner of Christianity, and had
translated and extensively circulated the Bijor,
which had created immenso excitement and
seemed likely to lend to the total destruction of
the Tartar race. They also, had possession of
Nankin, which is represented to be in ruins,
and the whole district in a state of anarchy.—
They were preparing to march upon Pekin as
soon ns they received their expected reinforce
ment from the South.
[From the New Orleans Daily True Delta.]
Further from Texas.

tion schools.
The Victoria Advocate, of the 23d ult., says:
Mr. E. Benuet informs us that his sugar cane is
very promising this season. lie has stocks, six
joins of which have already ripened. He thinks
lie will average two hogsheads of sugar to the
aero. Although Mr. Bennet is making sugar upon
a small scale, liis experiments, thus far, have
shown that great profit result from the business if
carried on extensively, and with adequate force.
Two hands have performed all the work of culti
vating his cane, sixteen acres; and fifteen acres
of corn, which he thinks will yield fifty bushels to
the acre. A portion of his cane was planted six
vears ago last fall, which will produce as well as
that which was planted more recently.
There can be no doubt that a portion of West
ern Texas is peculiarly adapted, by climate and
soil, to the culture of sugar.
An affray occurred in the streets of Matagorda
on the 16th ult., between Terry Rend and Jack
Carroll, which resulted in the stabbing and sub
sequent death of Carroll. The latter, it appeared
was the aggressor. Read, after an investigation,
was released, the case being held to be one of
justifiable homicide.
The Matagorda Tribune of the 23d ult. says:
We learri that a considerable degree of sickness
.continues to prevail in some portions of the inte
rior, in the shape of local fevers and dysentery.
We hear of very little sickness, however, among
our neighboring towns along the sea-cost. Mata
gorda continues to enjoy uninterrupted good
health.
Messrs. Upshur and Brown returned to Austin,
gra the 19th ult., from an excursion to the head
waters of the Pecan Bayou, where they fc'd been
since June engaged in locating lands. The State
Gazette says:
They succeeded in making a largo number of
locations of the very choicest lands, containing
water and timber in aliundnncc. Their company
all enjoyed good health during their arduous trip,

sequence. They saw hut few Indians, and those
they met were ull friendly disposed.

mens, and plenty pf them, were those shown us
were obtained,
baler from Europe.

Horrors of the Chinese Rebellion.
In looking over the advices from China, re
ceived by way of San Francisco, we find some
most shocking details of the barbarities perpe
trated by the Chinese insurgents. Jtheir exas
peration against the Manchows seems to know
no bounds. At the capture of Nankin, their
cruelties to these people w ore hi most unparallel
ed in the atrocities of war. The accounts say :
Having decoyed seven hundred of Ms nohow
women into a building under pretence of get
ting them married to Chinese people, they
ruthlessly set fire to the whole, and reduced
them to ashes. They then registered, the in
mates of every house in Nanain, and the next
day went through the city, comparing the list
withrfhe inhabitants found in each dwelling,
when, if thev found more than the number giv
en in, (a very likely case,) they killed the odd
members, They then pressed every Chinese
into the army from fifteen to forty-five, killing
the children us useless, appropriating the young
er women, and making the older ones cooks
and scullions. They also engaged in an indis
criminate slaughter of the Bubhist priests.
Horrible Affair.
Assassination.— A correspondent gives us full
particulars of the assassination of Mr. Alplieus
Jones, by Dr. Miller, at Barnes’ precinct in this
county, which wc mentioned briefly a few days
since.
“Ono of the most bloody deeds on record, was
not long since committed by the linoentioßs and
unprincipled wretch, Dr. S. M. W. I). L. Miller, on
the person of Mr. Alplieus Jones, a respectable
citizen of this county. Tho facts in relation to
this outrage are as follows : Said Miller had, for
some months, been in the employment of said
Jones, and on tl*e night of the sth of June last, ‘
Jones’ wife left his couch and crept softly to that
of Dr. Miller; to which place Jones soon followed
her, and attempted to drag her out of the bed;
but while doing this Miller cruelly stabbed and
chopped him with a huge knife, which is supposed
to have been concealed about tho bed. After re
ceiving many death-dealing strokes from this mid
night assassin, Jones, with his entrails in his
hands, fled to the house of his neighbor, Mr.
Supples, to which place he was pursued by Mrs.
Jones and Miller, who had a double?! barrelled
gun. Fortunately, Jones, who was judicious
enough to nbandon tho road and take to the
woods, reached there before them, and fell ex
hausted in the door just as they arrived at tho
gate. Not being allowed entrance, they both re
turned to Jones’ house. After ransacking the
house for Jones’ money, (about $400,) but which,
during their absence, hud been secured by Jones’
mother, nil aged and decrepid lady, Miller mount
ed his horse, and took to flight. Mr. Jones has
lain in ahopeless and deplorable condition at the
house of Miv Supples over since, until his death on
Friday last.
Miller escaped on a black stallion, with a white
face, taking with him a pair of physician’s saddle
bags—black patent eyes, covers. He (Miller.) is a
man of low, diminutive stature, black hair and
contracted brow, nnd rather feminine voice. Said
Miller is a South Carolinian by biiib, and has re
lations in Alabama and Florida—to the former or
latter of which places ho may have made his
escape.
This unmitigated scoundrel should he arraigned
and brought to justice. It is hoped that his Ex
cellency, tho Governor, will issuo a proclamation
offering a reward sufficient to authorize this un
dertaking. There are many individuals who will
readily pursue the author of this bloody deed
who yet goes unwhipped of justice, mid appre
hend him, nnd bring him beforo the tribunal of
our country.
All newspaper publishers who would arrest the
career of this villain, will please insert this in
their columns.
We have heard it hinted that Miller was shot at,
and probably killed, by a party in pursuit of him.
This, however, has no better foundation than
vague rumor. —Alabama Journal.
Dttatli of Col. mists.
A dispatch in another column announces the
death of Col. Bliss, U. S. Army, at Pascagoula,
yesterday, of yellow fever. Among its crowds
of victims, none will be more regretted than the
accomplished and gallant officer, whose death
in the prime of a well spent and honorable ca
reer we now deplore. Modest and unassuming
in his deportment, a gallant soldier, a true gen
tleman, a good citizen in every position in
which he was placed, he so acquitted himself as
to elicit commendation, and the respect and
admiration of his fellow citizens. Wherever he
was known —in the camp, in the cabinet, in the
social circle—he was beloved. lie follow-t to
the silent tomb the brave old chief under whose
victorious banner he gallantly served and ac
quired well merited distinction, who early saw
and appreciated his merits, in him pineal a
well-founded confidence, and gave hitn his be
loved daughter in marriage. A noble spirit
has departed. Honor to his memory. Peace
to his ashes.
After the above was .ip type, we received a
communication, in relation to the death ot Col.
Bliss, from an esteemed correspondent, in which
he says:—A r . 0. Daily True Delta .
Upon the public life and merits ofoncsowell
and widely known, eulogy would be wasted.—
We knew and now speak of him only as he
appeared in private life, as a true-hearted, high
toned, worthy gentleman, of mild and polished
manners, an apt and well read scholar, an el
egant writer, and still, endowed with all the
native modesty of merit. Skilled alike in arts
andrarm%jailm and capable, whether amid the
cannon's iron hail at Buena Vista, by his Gen
era™ side, or, afill by his side as his son-in-law
uud private Secretary when the noble old sol
dier was called by the nation's voice to the
Presidential Cfflir, in every station lie appear
ed fS advantaip, in civil as in military life. —
Few men were of a more retiring disposition,
of more unostentatious worth. How loved, how
honored by those who knew lrim best, let the
sorrow shown at his loss tell more unmistabably
than these few’ words of tribute to his memory
from a comparative stranger. >
Sadly has President Taylor’s family been

“Sit illis terra lovis.”
From Havana.— The Mobile Register lias a letter
from a correspondent dated Havar 1 duly 29, from
which we extract as follows :
■ Since iny last, by the Empire City, our business
has been dull, as becoming the soason, the tonnage
ill port, and the low prices of our lending articles
in the United States. Transactions of sugars have
been slight, as holders have not been inclined to
part with them at any reduction in figures.
The U. S. sloop of war Albany has been cruising
off this port since the 21st, waiting vi communieato
with the Commodore of the Home Squadron on
matters of business, and in reference to certain
throe American seamen held unjustifiably in prison
hero, and six secreted on the Cargo Cortes —former
part’of the orew’ of the bark Jasper, which landed
a cargo of negroes on the south side, reported some
time since, but denied by this government. Yet
these men are detained for the offence committed
by the Jasper. . ,
llr. Julian Znlneta has just been released from
the Capanas Fort, on the promise of better conduct
that is, to be more covert in liis business nego
tiations with the coast of Africa.
The officers of the Spanish Government have at
last actually seized a slaver, but have not captured
the negroes, although it is supposed they will ob
tain them —some 700, landed nearßatamauo, south
side. The officers and crew have been brought to
Havana, and are in prison.
D. Francisco Marty is endeavoring to patch up
his late kidnapping of Indians on the coast of 1 u
catan, to obtain the appearance of honest purpose
but the discovery has been too broad for cover,
and ho will be made to return all that can bo found,
with payment for labor and damages.
The action of the late Mexican Consul here, m
furnishing sea protection to the pirate ship “Lady
Suffolk,” has been completely exposed. The docu
ments represent that they are based upon certined
papers by Judge Sharkey, Ac., which were never
issued from hi3 office. ‘Mr. Vivo will probably
be recalled bv Santa Anno, f-ora his Ministerial
charge at Madrid to explain, or account for these
I hings
Affecting Storv— The Memphis Appeal, ofFri
day last, says:
A most touching case, illustrative of Conjugal
love, occurred at our wars a few days since. A
man nnd his wife were coming up the river, when
the husband took sick and was supposed to’
died. When they arrived at this city, the wife had
a coffin purchased, anl her husband wns deposited
in that Inst home of the dead. Just before the
moment of eliding the coffin, however, and the
final intermenj|of! the deceasod, the bereaved and
ngomted wile insisted upon once more looking up
on and embrnjbtg the 4, 1d remains of tho deceas
ed partner Whether it washer
warm embrace or returning consciousness, certain
it is that the supposed corpse suddenly evinced
signs of lifo, uni, the pVoper restoratives being
applied, within twenty-fohr hours tho invalid wns
enabled to proceed oil hisfjournoy, with every pros
pect of a speedy reooviry, owing his life to the
untiring devotion and 1 eke'of his true and faithful
wife. I

The Fever in Pißladslphia.— A few days ago,
says the N. O. Tru Delta, we had a dispatch sta
ting that a disease, closely resembling ycllov
fever, had brultfß .tint in Philadelphia, brought
thither by foreign vessels, and that there wns
much alarm in consequence. A Philadelphia dis
patch of the 26 h ult., to the N. Y. Commercial
Advertiser, thus notices tho appearnneo of the
disease :
A severe form'of billions fever lias broken out
violently on the South wharves in this city. Seven
persons have already died. Tho disease is sup
posed to have been brought into this city by ves
sels passing the quarantine. The bark Mandarin,
which arrived this morning from Cienfuegos, lost
