FEDERAL 1.1IOS OFFICE, (Motel to the Corner of Hancock and Washington streets,) OPFOWTK THE cor JIT IIOOF. Oclf'thar|ir I'niTmily, We understand that Judge Nisbet has consented to address the successful Dcelairaers in the Soph- inore Prize contest, at the approaching com- mencmcnt. Few men could be found to discharge this office with more honor to the Class, the occa sion, and the Institution. Fine Pran. Our townsman, Maj. Harris, has presented us with several varieties of Pears, which we consid ered unusually fine. He gave them to us to eat, not to puff: and we only refer to the fact as afford ing a worthy example, which might be imitated with profit to others. Maj. Harris is an amateur fruit raiser; and at his country place, “Pomona," he is cultivating as fine fruit—Pears, Piumbs, Apples and Peaches, as can be found anywhere. Go reader and do likewise; don't say you can’t; you can. (a «!o it. Somebody sent ns an obituary ntoice from Hills boro, Ga.' signed, “a friend.” We can't publish obituaries or marriages without a responsible name is attached. A lovely niiflit! To sco a know-Nothing paper eating fire with a perfect gusto, because Southern Democrats voted for the Conference Kansas bill, and thou to see the same paper trumpet the patriotism of such deserters as Crittenden and Bell, sky-high! To hear such a paper denounce Douglas as a traitor, .- nd tli. n denounce Southern Democrats as traitors, for voting for a measure which Douglas and all the Abolitionists voted against. The Recorder stands for the picture. As our neighbor lias be come so savagely cruel on those Democratic Con gressmen who voted for the English hill, why don’t ho advocate Douglas over Crittenden? He might make something by the exchange; No principle is at stake, and with Douglas’ help, may be Sam might ho resurrected. Who knows? The hair of the dog is said to he goed for the bite. Times unit Hcniinol. A notice of the change in the editorial depart ment of this paper, was written for our last issue, hut was by some means overlooked. Col. Tennent Lomax has retired, and Messrs P. H. Colquitt and James W. Warren will take charge of the chair editorial. Mr. Ellis as publisher, is still connected with the paper. Col. Lomax was a courteous and able writer, and we shall miss him greatly in the fight we have to wage against tho enemies of Democracy. Mr. Warren wo do not know; but Capt. Colquitt's pen is quite familiar; he having had the editorial department of the Times & Sen tinel under his direction for more than a year.— We extend to Col. Lomax our best wishes for his prosperity in the new field to which his inclinations have brought him; and we hope the new- editors may find much more pleasure and profit in tlieir present position than usually attends the labors of political editors in the same field. Brother Ciisby, of Macon, hoisted tho Eagle bird, and brother Rowland, also of Macon, took the Shanghai Rooster, now let brothers Orme run up the white Crow,when we catch a white buzzard we will mount onr bird, if it happens to he close to any great occasion, like Christmas, or 4th of July, or St. Valentine’s.—federal I'nion. If the Union intends the “buzzard” as an em blem of some of its political principles, it need not wait to catch a “white” one. Runup theblack one—it will answer quite as well, if not better. [Sar. Republican. When wc hoist him, we shall feed him on the Bank articles of the Republican, as they are the deadest subject we know of. JI**. Hilt iiml (hr English llill. Wc were in error in stating,as we did last week, that Hou. Joshua Hill voted for the English Con ference hill. Mr. Hill was not in Washington at tin* time. Wc were led into the error.from the fact that 'lie entire representation from Georgia present, voted for the bill; but we forgot that Mr. Hill had to come home to consult his constituents as to whether he should vote for or against the Confer ence hill. Mr. Hill, however, paired off, we be lieve, with an opponent of the .bill, if our memory serves us right. This would indicate that had he been in his seat, ho would have voted as did his colleague, Mr. Trippo. As the Recorder considers t lis English bill, the tiles’. Black Republican Docu ment, and as Mr. Hill is, at least, not above sus picion as to his advocacy of the ‘document,’ will the Recorder cali on Mr. Hill for an explanation? We should he pleased to hear from Mr. Hill, as we do not wish to misrepresent him, and vve are anxious to understand his true position on this measure, that we may also do full justice to tho >outhr.ru Re corder. If Mr. Hill remains silent, we shall con tinue to understand him as favoring tho bill of Mr English, and, of consequence,in the same catego ry as the Recorder places those democrats and “Americans" who voted for the bill—viz: a sup porter of a vile Black Republican document. Our neighbor, certainly, can never support Mr. Trippe ngain. If he does, he supports a man who has voted for a tile Black Republican document, and be comes as guilty of treason to his section, as he makes his friend and brother “Americau” Mr. Trippe. “The fnricprmlent Nonlli.” We have received the first number of a new paper with the above title, published at Griflin, Ga_, by A. P Burr, Esq. It is a handsome sheet, . id the number before us evinces much care in ; reparation'. The polities of the South, if it has any, is to he sectional—that is, devoted to the South side of the Union only. We trust that " bile the editor is demanding everything for the .--noth that is right and just, he will not he un mindful of the rights of other sections; that he will love the Union as long as it is a just Union, and go in for a dissolution only when the co partnership ceases to he equal in its benefits to all the parties. If litis paper shall succeed in its independent character, it will be the first instance within our recollection, where a strictly neutral political paper has been able to stand at the South We wish the editor the fullest success in all hon orable and just efforts to defend the rights of tho South. Got bin Hat null I,eft. Our piscatorial friend, the Editor of the Wire Grass Reporter, on the 4th, or rather the 3d, of July, departed from liis customary line, by a de liberate, wilful and inallicious attempt to cut the “pigeon-wing after the fashion of Eighteen Hun dred aud Thirty-five. But lie was distanced in that field, by a competitor, whose lurely licks took the putty out'n the crack so elegantly that the Judge was forced to take his hat aud leave. Hear him : “Partners for a cotillon.” Forgetting our age, v. e rushed forward, secur- ed a partner and took our place at the head In a few minutes we were cutting the pigeon-wing in the style most approved in the year oi grace Eigh teen Hundred and Thirty-Five. When the music became quick and very exhil- cratiug, we even let off a few stitihes of that old aud popular piny-woods pas seal, “l'addy catch a rat.” Jeff was in the same sett, and taking on quite as extensively as ourself. The fact is we were getting on swimmingly, until looking over into another set, we saw a stout boy bearing our name, aud of whom we claim tiie paternity, ma king the same licks, and a number of others of a more modern date. We then remembered that we were getting old, and began to feel a little weak in the knees. When llie bow was tapped upon the hack of the violin, therefore, and part ners seated, we slyly laid hands on our hat, aud made our hegira homeward.” Death of Gen. Cleveland. —General Benjamin Cleveland died at liis residence in Habersham county on the doth of June. Editorial Corrr«p«ndrucr of the Federal I'nion—Front Savaanah to New York. The departure of a large steamer loaded with passengers for a distant port is always an impor tant event to many persons. It is important both to those who are about to embark, and trust them selves to the caprices of a stormy and treacherous ocean, and to their friends who are left behind Having engaged a State Room and deposited our baggage, we had leisure to contemplate the scene around us. Carriages were continually arriving loaded with passengers and their baggage, aud frequently among the passengers friends come to see them off, and to bid them a long, perhaps, a final adieu. Among the passengers many were intent on business, some in pursuit < f health, and a few, very few, were travelling for pleasure. I lies - travelling on business were anxious to start, and seemed to begrudge every moment that ilie steamer lingered at the wharf. Those intent on pleasure were making arrangements for their com* fort during the voyage, or enjoying the prospect from the deck of the steamboat. Some of the in valids looked melancholy, and their parting with tlieir friends was very tender and sad. Above us the steamer Commerce was taking on hoard freight and passengers for Baltimore. Below us, the Florida, a large side wheel steamer, bound for New York like ourselves, was continually receiv ing additions to her crowded decks. It is nearly Z o'clock, and the time for starting is at hand. First the Commerce casts loose from her moorings and floated gracefully past us down the river; soon after the report of a gun from the Florida ave us warning that she was getting under way. and the foaming water at her stern gave sure in dications that she too was off. And now came our time; the word was given, all who were not hound for New York must go on shore. The last adieu, aud the final shake of the hand is given, the signal gun is fired, the fastenings are cast loose; at Z o'clock, P. M., precisely, the propelle r Montgomery started on her way to New York, bearing with her, besides her ordinary crew, about one hundred passengers, like John Gilpin’s fami ly “ail agog to dash through thick and thin.” We are now on our winding way down the river, all anxious to take a parting look at the city of Savannah, which is fast receding from onr sight. The hanks of the river below Savannah may lie interesting to Agriculturists and for rice growers in particular, for there are several rich plantations to he seen from the deck of the steam boat, hut the scenery on this part of the river, is neither beautiful nor sublime. On approaching the bar at the mouth of the river, every one is attracted by the appearance of the water. On the one side | of a straight line are the muddy waters of the river, on the other rolls the blue waters of the ocean. This then is the dividing line between between the dominions of the River God, and those of Old Neptune; when we passed that line we considered ourselves fairly at sea. The shores of Georgia soon receded from our view, the blue out lines of some Islands on the coast of South Carolina rem ined in sight some time longer, hut at last they too were lost in the distance, and now on every side was nothing but water and sky. Soon after losing sight of the land, a bright object appeared on the Northern horizon, which the un initiated supposed was a ship on lire, but which the captain informed us was a light boat anchored on a shoal, to warn seamen of their danger. The keeper of tins light boat must lead a solitary life, shut out as he is from all the world by a dreary waste of water; he has, however, the satisfaction of knowing that he is out of the reach of snakes, of Sheriffs, small pox and mad dogs. Having a Clergyman on board, at 8 o’clock on Saturday night we were invited to attend prayers in the large cabin. As the weather was warm, the room crowded, aud the vessel rolling considerably many were very sea sick before the services closed- Sunday morning rose beautifully upon us, the sea was calm, the sky serene, two or three vessels were in sight, but at a great distance from us; many who had gone to bed the night before sick and disconsolate, rose this morning well aud in fine spirits. At 10 o’clock we had Divine service on the deck of the steamer under an awning. I know of no place under Heaven better calcu* laled to inspire awe and reverence for the Supreme Being, than tho deck of a ship on a calm day in the midst of the ocean. The officers and crew of the ship, and nearly all of the passengers attend ed preaching. The services were solemn and ap propriate, and appeared to produce a favorable impression upon all present. It was generally understood that we should pass Capo Hatteras between 10 and 12 o’clock on Sunday night.— Doubling Cape Hatteras is generally the great event in a voyage from Savannah to New York- It is there that seamen generally expect azdiange in the weather, and there we expect to meet tli steamers coming from New Y'ork. The Captain laid he should run in sight of the light on tho Cape, and nearly ail of the passengers, the ladie included, agreed to keep watch on deck and help the Captain double the Cape. All eyes, of course were turned in the direction in which it was sup posed the light would first appear. All of the steamers on the coast we believe at night carry a lantern at the fore top. One of the officers of the boat who had been aloft with a spy-glass, lookin out for the light, came down and made a report to the Captain—suddenly three rockets one after another shot up from our deck and rose high into the air. We then understood that our mate had discovered one of the returning steamers, and our Captain was saluting her. In a short time away in tin* North West three rockets shot up ap parently out of the dark waters. Those on board the returning boat had seen our signal and return ed tho salute. Three times that night was this beautiful salutation passed between our boat a tiie returning steamers, as one after another they passed us, though none of them near enough to The Blues' Dinner. With a number of other invited guests we sat down to an excellent dinner given by the “Bn'ES” on the 3d inst. After the table was chared, the following toasts were drank. The Miliedgeville Brass Band was in attendance, and gave the com* pany a treat in their way: REGULAR TOASTS. 1st. The Day and Event we celebrate: Glorious in the past, honored at the present: May the blood of our Fathers shed on that memorable oc casion be the bond and cement of our Union. 2d.

Yes, we can. Gov. Johnson did make the Road pay. Gov. Brown has made it pay; and if Gov. Johnson’s management did not make it pay so much as it now pays, it was not his fault: He could neither control freights nor travel. The article was “intended" for the very purpose it accomplish ed, viz: to gratify tho Democracy, and to make the enemies of Gov. Brown show their teeth — The Journal S( Messenger barked first—he was the worst hurt of the whole pack. Id?”We are requested to anuonnee the name of Chales J.

The light on Cape Hatteras at length appeared—we had doubled the cape, aud the passengers all re* tired to rest. During Monday several sail ships came in sight of us, hut none of them near enough for us to speak them. When wo arose on Tuesday morning the coast of New Jersey was in sight; as wc approached New Y’ork a dense lug lay upon the water, and vve feared vve should encounter a North East storm before vve got into the harbor, but about 9 o’clock the fog lifted, as tho sailors say; it rose up from the water aud dis covered to our view one of the most enchanting pictures our eyes ever beheld. The outer harbor of New Y’ork lay before us. On our right hand lay Long Island in all its beauty, on our left arose Staten Island with its numerous villas and beau tiful country scats of the New York merchants, perched upon its hills; near the water stood the forts and batteries that guard the entrance int New Y ork harbor, whilst over the waters of the hay floated in every direction more than a hun dred vessels of various sizes, names and forms We doubt whether the world can furnish a nror,. beautiful Panorama than New York haibor s- from our position on such a morning as this. But the near approach to the city recalls us to our selves. We are about to leave the steamer that lias borne us safely over the waters, and before vve depart wc have each and all of us signed a written testimony of thanks to Captain Crocker, his officers and crew including the servants, for their kind care and attention to us during our pas sage. We part from tho good steamer Mont gomery with the kindest feelings toward her Cap tain an d all on board, wishing them many years of health and prosperity, and the owners of the line much success in tlieir enterprize. We have determined to stay hut a few hours in New York at this time, hut propose first to take a tour in New England and then return to New York. We shall start for Providence this evening at 6 o’clock by steamer up the Sound. In our next epistle vve will givo you the benefit of some of our ex perience of travelling in Yankee land. B.

The present number is more than usually interest ing, aud much enlarged. To the Editor's table we sit down satisfied that before we get up, we shall find something extremely funny or pathetic. From the “Table” of the last number, we pick the fol lowing pungent crunrh, which we hand over tc our readers to taste and pass along : Those that detest puns, or cannot discover them, w ill please skip the dialogue: ‘ My eyes!” said the Potato to the Lemon, “how biliuus-you look to-day ! Y’our skin is as yellow as saffron. What can he the matter 7 ” “Lemon. Acidity of stomach—a family com plaint of ours. “Potato. Why don’t you take advice?” “Lemon. Advice! You know my poor dear brother dropped off the other day; and without being allowed to rest on liis mother earth, his body was snatched up by a member of the Bar, who, instead of acting legally, dissected him— absolutely cut him up. ‘Alitor the public good,’ said the rascal, as he squeezed out poor Lem’s last gastric juices. Take advice, quotha! It he was not allowed to enter a plea in Bar, what may I expect from Doctors’ Commons ?” “Potato. That’s true. I only hope poor Lem, though he was in liquor at the time, had strength enough to give him a punch under the ribs: he was a rum customer to the last, no doubt—hut I must say I wish his skin had been fuller. Do you attend the meeting to-night ? “Lemon. I feel rather soured at present. I met Running Vine just now with the invitations, and he hinted that there would he a squeeze, in which case I should decline, as they might press me to furnish drink for the company—in tact, it is al ways so w hen they call any of my family to their aid" But now, to be serious, my sweet, sweet Potato, if you should go. let me advise you not to get yourself into hot water: you’ll be dished to a certainty if you do. Onion, the strongest friend you have on earth, brought tears to my eyes by the bare recital of what would he the probahl consequences of your attending it. In ease of a row, you'll both have to strip—peel off. Now, uu dcr such circumstances, he’ll certainly excite some sort of sympathy; whereas the removal of your russet coat might attract more admiration than pity: ‘Lovely in death, would they say—‘Pallida mors,’ etc. Indeed, for my own part, 1 think you do look better in white. Oh! another thing I would say : Keep out of Horse-Radish's compa ny; he will he sure to get into a scrape, a greater one than lie imagines, perhaps—and as for Onion, (don’t let this leak out,,) 1 fear the rope will end him. I should not like to get into a stew with him—so, mum ! Ah ! here come Plum aud Pear. How savage they look ! “Pear. How* are you, my dear Lemon? Do de cide this question between Plum and me. On re ferring to Johnson, we find my numerical value estimated at two only, while the rascally Plum is set down fora hundred thousand. Its too ab surd : there must be some mistake.” “Plum. None at all. Please to recollect. Sir, that I weigh a stone more than you.” “Pear. From that I must beg leave to secede.” “Lemon. Stop this fruitless wrangling, or I shall he tempted to skin you both, to get at the truth. I'm not in spirits. As for you, Mr. Plum, no more of your tart remarks; and Mr. Pear, if you wish to be preserved, the less jarring the bet ter. Here comes our good friend Raspberry. How- do you do, my line fellow, and where have you been?” ‘Raspberry. In the most infernal jam you ever saw* : ’lion honor, ’twas insupportable. What’s the news?” “Lemon. There is a report which Bush lias raised, quite current here, that he served you up in sweet style last evening at tea table, before a party of ladies; and the cream of the joke is, that you were considerably down in the mouth. “Raspberry. Mere envy. You know he eulti vates the affections of Miss Rose Geranium, (a sweet creature, by-the-by. and has grown very much lately;) hut finding that she preferred me, he became saucy, which induced me to beat him into a jell v, and send him in that state to his friend I cni- son, who lives near Fulton Market. “Lemon. (Ruts his hands on hips, aud guffaws.) Bravo! What a funny limb of Satan you are. But Ras., have you seen old Gardener lately ? He’ll give you a deuced trimming when he meets vou. He says you ought to have done sowing your wild-oats, aud that, although it goes against i n ,- lnor j le ; rs of liis grain to complain of your treading on his count „ deceased, corns, he can’t stand it any longer, and must - peach.” “Raspberry. Peach, will he ? And are these to be. the fruits of my bearing with him so long ? He has been picking at me for some time ; and yet it was but yesterday, the ungrateful old rake, that I got him out of a scrape with Mr. Horse-Radish, who, after seizing him by the nose, threw a musk- melon at his head, exclaiming with an equestrian laugh: ‘That ought to make at least one mango.’ And go lie did, that's certain, all to squash.” “Lemon A challenge will ensue, doubtless. “Raspberry. By no means. No one knows better than Gardener that Horse-Radish shoots like the devil in the spring, and one fail lit- has already received from bun. It would be unreasonable to But drop the subject, for here comes Mrs. Tree, who seems to w ear a very cypressy look. “Mrs. Tree. Good morning, gentlemen. Y'ou have heard, no doubt, that I have lost those young limbs of mine.

It says: “We learn that the State Treasurer received $25,- 000 from the Treasurer of the State Road, as the nett earnings of the State Road, for the month of June. More bad news for the enemies of the State Administration,” Can the Federal Union answer this question?— What was the reason the State Road did not pay in similar amounts, under the administration of Gov. Johnson! Was this article intended as a trunk. Fiue growing weather, this. Adieu “Pear. Pine more.! I should say she is one of tiie pi lie-/,wots. There is very little of the weep ing-willow about her.” “Lemon. No, the stingy old creature! No doubt she’d have been cut down by the loss of her trunk —she’d have been chop-fallen then. Instead of pining, she talks sprucer than ever. I don’t be lieve she even went to the expense of having the poor little things inoculated ; a very little matter would have given them succor. She said the other day she was trying bark on them. But I vow, lu re comes Aspen. Aspen, why so agitated ? Is there any thing strange in the wind ?” “Aspen-Tree. I’m in such a flutter, that I can scarce tell you of our common danger. But in a word, whether it was on account of our extreme admiration for the Woods and the Forest, or that the Chesnuts and Oaks began to rail at him, and give offence, it has entered the head of Hickory which is very high just now—to root me out, and remove my trembling deposits from the bank on which I was reared by tlm side of Schuylkill. Supplication is useless. Old Hickory will not bend, though we tell him of our breaking—and ad vise all of you, who, like me, have branches, to ut and run. “Lemon. My skin stands a double chance to be saved—for if I cut, I shall surely run. But are you serious ? “Aspen-Tree. Serious ! I tell you the sooner yon cut stick, the better. Hickory runs wonder fully.

All in favor of taking our leaves, will please bow.” [They haw unanimously anti exeunt as fast as their limbs can cany them ] The Hearld of Freedom estimates the resent the present population of Kansas at 100,900, and thinks it will he 120,000 before the year closes.
