piimh : in Chiragj.—Touching scene in Court.—
j ar ,a VcN'anroe was murdered in 01 irago oil tlie
niplit of the 2d inst., by her husband. The hus
band was arrested, and in court a little son of the
prisoner, only lour years old, was introduced as a
witness. The scene is thus described by the Tri
bune:
After he was brought in, his attention was first
drawn to hii playthings, until his timidity being
overcome, he told in his cbiidish, lisping prattle
how bis father struck his mother, and she fell
down: how the blood ran and she was “very sick:”
how he stamped upon her after she lay upon the
floor, at the same time imitating, with his
tiny foot, the motion; how his mother lay in a dark
room, and was “so bloody:” how his father drew
her forth by the hair of the head, and suiting the
actiou to the word, he grasped both hands in the
Pair; how his mother tried to get up but could not,
swinging his little body to imitate the mother, how
he had no dinner in the day time, for his mother
was asloep on the be J, but bis father got him j TbUheStur Sp.ineleJ Banner, oh. Ion* may i! wave,

his mother was in the bed at the time, ail bloody
by tlie nose; how she lay on “the boards” (the
floor) with blood all round her, bow his father
wiped up the blood with a dish cloth and put it in
the pan: how lie did'nt see why she did'nt die be
fore. for his father did it very ofteu. And finally,
w hen asked if his mother was drunk, he distinctly
said “no, hut fader was.” It was a scene long to
be remembered by all who heard him in the in
nocence of his childish confidence, tell his tale,
whicb not a hearer could doubt; not yet old enough
t • realize his loss or the danger in which he w”as

In our last communication we intimated that we
did not intend to remain long in New York at that
time. In accordance with that determination we
took passage on board the steamboat Plymouth
Kock for Providence, E. I. This, with another
boat, forms a daily line of travel in connection
with the Railroad from Stonington to Providence*
between New York and Providence. Having a
few hours to dispose of before the steamboat left,
we chartered a hack and rode around the city.
The first thing that impresses a stranger in New
York is the magnificent hotels and store houses on
Broadway, and the large number of extravagant
private residences on 5th Avenue and some of the
adjacent streets. Has not this extravagance in
private buddings, and extravagance in living to
match, caused many of tlie failures, and much of
the distress that hag lately afflicted the city? Af
ter, visiting the Crotcn Reservoir, the Crystal Pal
ace, and a few more of the lions of the city, we
returned to the steamboat and commenced our
voyage up the sound. The Plymouth Kock is one
of those large and splendid steamboats that daily
arrive at and depart trotn New York, which have
justly been denominated floating palaces. It has
three tier or stories of rooms one above another,
all magnificently finished and furnished with splen
did mirrors, carpets, Ac., Ac,. We had between
six and seven hundred passengers on board, and
yet were not crowded in the least, but to all ap
pearance could have accommodated many more.
Most of the servants on this boat were free ne
groes. and they contrive to make themselves a
perfect pest and annoyance to all travellers from
tbe South. We could get neither information nor
service from them. They appear to study how to
make themselves just as disagreeable and unser
viceable as they possibly can without positively
refusing to obey you. The owners of steamboats
and hotels will have to abate this nuisance, or they
will lose much of their Southern custom. We
have found the white waiters generally much
more attentive, obliging and kind, than the free
negroes. C'uffee without a master, soou becomes
insolent, lazy, self important, and of no account.
The scenery on tho sound for many miles
above New York, is very beautiful, and we sat on
the deck of the steamboat for many hours enjoy
ing the prospect. But there is such a thing as be
ing satiated with sight-seeing, for the time. Our
eyes and our mind became fatigued, anu we re
quired rest. Next morning when we arose we
found ourselves at Stonington, Connecticut. 'I he
boat had arrived there at 2 o’clock in the night,
and most of tiro passengers had gone on to Prov
idence and Boston by tbe night train; we, how
ever, preferred enjoying a full night’s rest on the
boat, and take the accommodation train at 7
o’clock in tlie morning. Stonington is a small
town on the sound and does not appear to have
much commerce. In our last war with Great
Britain, a British fleet bombarded this place, and
attempted to take possession of it, but a battery
of IS pounders ou the hill, energetically served,
planted cold iron in tlie ribs of John Bull with so
much judgment and success, that he was soon
glad to haul off and repair damages, and the old
gentleman was so disgusted with this specimen of
yankee notions that he did not repeat his visit.
That portion of Connecticut which the Stoning,
ton and Providence Railroad passes over, is rocky
and appears sterile by nature ; but the industrious
inhabitants have made the most of what arable
land they have, and the farm houses and villages
look neat and comfortable, and every stream of
water is made to labor for tbe benefit of man
When our train arrived at the depot in Providence,
we were met by a large crowd of people, and sa
luted by the firing of cannon and a band of martial
music. As this was more than we had bargained
for and much more than we expected, it will be
necessary to explain the cause. It seems that an
encampment of Knights Templars from Rich
mond in Virginia, on their way to Boston to assist
their brethren of New England in celebrating the
annivi-rsasy of St. Johns, were on the cars with
us, and it was to honor them that the Knights
Templars of Rhode Island had made this demonstra-
‘ Ifeiv ike IY*rlil is given l« Lyisg.”
The John Arrowsmitbs, it appears, are not all
dead yet—at least the knaves and fools seem
still to be rampant. We take the following from
the editorial column of the Toronto (C. W.) Globe
of the 18th instant, which will be news to the
dwellers in this latitudo.
The ‘Regulators’ in Savannah, Georgia, have,
within the last month, bung Jive men and
whipped two women."
Now. will the Globe be good enough to tell us
here on earth it got so ridiculous a story from?—
It is hardly necessary for us to say there 13 not a
shadow of foundation for the statement. We have
no‘regulators’ in Savannah. Mr. Globe: have hung
no men; have whipped no women, and never in
tend to. or to allow it to be done.—Sav. Ucpublican
June 30tA.
In the very same number of the Republican from
which we clip the above scathing rebuke of liars,
is published a letter from Tampa, Fla., charging a
Vigilance Committee in that town with hanging
four respectable citizens—and but two democrats
could be induced to follow tbe bodies to their
graves! The Republican could publish that bare
faced munchauseu, and uot smell a rat—all be
cause it contained a flingatthe Democratic Party.
It was a most damnable outrage in a Canada paper
to publish that the Regulators iu Savannah had
whipped two women and hung five men—but it
was a marvellous proper thing in the Republican
to publish equally as great a slander on the town
of Tampa, and the few Democrats in it.
Blackberry Brandy.
“The most singular substance submitted to our
ditorial inspection lately, is a bottle of brandy,
made by Dr. Teague, of this village, of black
berries. It is a limpid, colorless liquid, of most
agreeable odor and highly pungent taste. It
seems to be a decidedly better brandy than that
made of the peach, and there is no mure difficulty
its manufacture. It may be that tbe blackberry
will yet become one of our most valuable natural
productions. In itself, it is healthful, almost a
medical berry. The cnrdail and jams made of it
are thought worthy of a place among the various
prepartions of the medical dispensary; and we do
not see why blackberry brandy should not also
become a most useful as well as very genial drink.
We trust our enterprising friend will push tho
matter on to success. He might thus perhaps
mark an era in the history of stimulating bever
ages. As at present tested, a bushel of black
berries will make a full half gallon of first-rate
liquor, without the foreign aid of strychnine, or
any other poisonous agent.”—Edgefield Ailcertiscr.
If this be true, and we don’t doubt it, then the
Blackberry may be put down as the most valuable
of our natural productions. What will it not
make ? If good Brandy can be made with this
berry, what a blessing the discovery will bo to the
world. The berry is so abundant, and so easily
obtained, we might readiiy anticipate the time
when poisoned liquors will be driven out of our
markets entirely. We hope other persons will
try their hand at making brandy from the Black
berry, and give the world the results of their ex
periment.

The Banks.
The Act passed by tiro last Legislature to pro

this State for non-specie payment, required
among other things that “the affidavit of Bank
officers, to their annual and semi-annual reportes
shall in all cases slate that the Bank of which they
are officers has not by itself, its officers or its
agents, in any particular, violated tho provisions
of this Act.” rind on the 1st of June last Gov
ernor Brown issued his proclamation calling upon
the Banks for a statement of their condition ; but,
with the exception we believe of the Central Rail
road Bank and the Manufacturer’s Bank of this
city, none of our Banking institutions have seen
fit to comply with the above cited prevision.
Now we would like to knew whether these mon

the law of the land—and that, too, a law of their
own making. Is there no way of compelling them

tion; aud although none of the honor was intend- j in hunting doves over tho wheat fields—these
ed for us, we had our share of the noise, confusion
and dust. Providence is a large city, containing
as we are informed, over sixty thousand inhabi
tants, and is said to be one of tho richest cities
the Union of its size. Its buildings, both public
and private, look neat and comfortable, but not
elegant or tasteful. Providence may be well call
ed a Quaker city; utility and neatness, comfort
and economy everywhere predominate over mag
nificence and show. No beggars or vagabonds
are seen in the streets, and the city has a broad-
brimmed and straight-laced appearance. Brown
L Diversity, one of the best literary institutions in
the United Slates, is at this place; and we believe
tlie inhabitants of Providence have generally been
liberal promoters of education. The city is situa
ted at the head of Naragansett Bay, about 30 miles
from Newport. The steamboat Perry runs be
tween Providence and Newport twice every dav,
Sundays excepted. We took passage ou board
the Periy at half past 9 o’clock, July 2d. and ar
rived at Newport a little before twelve. The city
of Newport near the water has an ancient and rus
ty appearance. Upon the^rill there are several
large hotels, and several beautiful private residen
ces built by parsons of wealth, who spread a por
tion of each summer here, and the balance of the
year elsewhere. The beach where men and wo
men congregate for bathing is back of the city,
nearly a mile from the business part of the place.
Here are a large number of small houses for chang
ing clothes, and when dressed in the uniform of
the bath, they march into tlie surf and meet the
flowing waves as they roll in upon the beach.
But few visitors are here from the South at pres
ent; it is too early in the season. The celebrated
Stone ruin, mentioned in Uooper’s Red Rover, is
iu a park on tiro hill near one of the large hotels.
It is a round tower, built on eight pillars all of
common stone laid in mortar. When, or by whom
it was built, or for what purpose, no one can tell.
It is believed by many that it was built before the
prilgrim fathers landed at Plymouth, and even be
fore America was discovered by Columbus. Hear
ing that tiro people of Narragansett were going to
celebrate tlie anniversary of our independence ou
tbe 5tli of July, by a Mammoth Clambake got up
in primitive style, we determined to he there. Our
route lay across an arm of the sea, then across Ca-
nanuient island, then across another arm of the
sea, in all about 7 or 8 miles. We arrived in good
time to see tho manner of cooking the clams.
They first dug ftiree large holes in the ground ;
at the bottom and around the sides of the holes a
large number of rocks were placed, then a fire is
made in the holes, and when the rocks are .suffi
ciently heated, tlie fire is raked out, and a large
quantity of sea weed is thrown into the hot pit;
then sixteen bushels of clams were put in, and
over them another layer of sea weed, and over all
a covering of gravel aud dirt. The clams are thus
stewed and baked until they arc thoroughly done,
and are consid red by many a great luxury. Be
sides the clams, one thousand Lobsters were cook
ed and served up. which together with unnumber
ed pies, cakes, and other fixins, made a feast, not
only fit to set before a King, but fit to set before a
Sovereign people. Some fifteen or sixteen hun
dred persons, full one Jialf ladies, we should say,
partook of this feast. The girls of Canannicut
Island, celebrated for their beautiful complexions
were there in all their glory, and we must confess
that many of them were very pretty; and the la
dies from the towns and country round about,
were there, in all some seven oi eight hundred
Just before the dinner, we had an address
delivered on the occasion, by the Rev. Mr.
Church, a Baptist Minister from Wakefield. It
was one of the best 4th of July orations we ever
heard; learned, patriotic and eloquent, and al
though he dwelt much upon our civil and relig
ious liberty, and upon our equality as citizens, he
never once mentioned negro slavery, nor made any
remarks derogatory to Southern institutions. Mr.
Church besides being a gentleman and scholar is
said to be a warm hearted Christian, and a true
patriot, and we rathe r guess he is a Democrat. Af
ter dinner many of the young people, and tiie Sun
day School scholars, took an excursion on the wa
ter in a steamboat. We returned to Newport
much pleased with our excursion. We think we
have seen the way in which Adam and Eve cook
ed clams, if they ever indulged in such luxuries.
We have seen, also, how the sons and daughters
of Rhode Island celebrate tiro4thof July. I forgot
to mention that out of the whole crowd assembled
at the Clambake, we saw but two men intoxicated,
and they, like ourselves, came from Newport! there
was no intoxicating drink on the ground. B.

Chester, July 10.—Yesterday evening, after sup
per, J. I. Robert Wilson, who lived about four
miles above this town, was killed by his step-son
John O. Darby. It is said that Wilson was essay
ing to hand-cuff his wife, Darby’s mother, and take
her up stairs for the purpose of cowhiding her,
when Darby, who was a young man about nine
teen years old. and iived in tlie family, interfered
and was attacked by Wilson with a drawn Bowie
knife. Darby retreated from the house and round
it, Wilson followed him closely, with fail intent,
when Darby again entered the house, jerked up a
loaded shot gun and discharged the contents into
the breast of Wilson, killing him instantly. Of
course liquor had a large share in this most de
plorable business. Darby came to town last night
and surrendered himself to the proper authorities.
We understand that Coroner John Knox, Esq.,
has been sent for, aud doubtless will hold an in
quest on tbe body. Wilson has been tho guardian
of Darby up to tiie present term of the Conit of
Equity, when bis letters of guardianship were re
voked at the instance of tiro young man himself.
This may have stimulated Wilson iu his assault
on Darby.—Carolinian.

Effects of the rust.—The Columbus Enquirer
says.
We hear still farther reports of fatality to stock
from eating oats affected by the rust. Cattle we
learn have been killed by it iu Russell county,
and we heard a report on Tuesday that a gentle
man in Barbour couniy, Ala., had lost several
mules turned in upon a fo ld of oats only .Sunday
previous. We repeat our warning to fanners—
inquire into the truth of these reports, and make
cautious experiments with your own.
Home.—There is a world where no storms in
trude. a heaven of safety against the storm of
life. A little world of joy and love, of innocence
aud tranquility. Supicions are not there, nor
jealousies, nor falsehood with her double tongue,
nor the venom of slander. Peace embraces it
with outspread wings. Plenty broodeth there.—
When a man entereth it, he forgeteth his sorrow,
and cares and disappointments; he cpero tli his
heart to confidence, and to pleasure not mingled
w ith ramose. This world is the well-ordered home
of a virtious and amiable woman.

Senator Douglas was received this evening with

hundred from Chicago and the adjoining comities
proceed to Michigan city, and there met Judge
Douglas and escorted him to this city. Tlie ar

speech in belialf of the citizens, by Clias. Walker,
President of the Board ot Trade.

The Vicksburg Whig has a friend, who proposes
a new plan for the supression of duelling, which if
it obtains will now, hereafter, and forever, put an

that when a difficulty occurs between two gentle
men, the matter shall be referred to a court of hon
or, who shall settle it, or decide whether it is ne
cessary to fight or not. In case of the court de
ciding in favor of a fight, tiro parties to he com

to be arrested and hung for mnrder.
Summer Santlif j and Seasonable Right* ousnrs.
Having qnile as mucli the fear of God as the
fear of gentility before our eyes, although we may
not lay special claim to either, we venture a word
upon the custom of the time in regard to popular
rigliteousuess. It lias become the fashion of em
inent clergymen to repair to the country during
tlie “heated term,” and equally customary for fash
ionable churches to present closed doors during
that period.
We do not intend to object to tiro allowance of
the claim of those servants of the Lord who min
ister to our spiri'ual warns during the cold season
to enjoy a respite and relaxation daring dog days.
This may be all right aud proper enough.
But, as the majority of poor sinners of the city
are rightly supposed to stay at home while wealthy
saints go to the seaside or the springs to “spread”
and enjoy themselves, we do object, in the name
of common sense, consistency and humanity,
to all or any of our leading churches being closed
during the vacation so enjoyed by fashionable
righteousness.
There are plenty of young and itinerant clergy
men, ready to supply any one and all of our pul
pits during the Summer rambles of their regular
pastors. We wish this fact recognized and acted
upon. Let us have churches open iu Summer as
well as Winter. Religion and humanity demand
it. And no argument can be urged iu favor of
closing churches during the Summer season,
which might, not be properly treated as an argu
ment in favor of closing the gates of Heaven and
the doors of Salvation for the same period, and for
the same cause.
The religious life aud practice of professed Chris
tians is orthordox, sectarian and fashionable
enough without bringing tho dog star Sirius and
tbe “heated term” into Church discipline. What
ever fashion may teach to the contrary, God is
God of tbe Summer as well as Winter, and Christ
was not the Christ of Summer resorts and fashion
able society alone. The mother of Jesus did not
live at Saratoga, Newport or in Fifth avenue.
Christ and the Apostles labored uot alone during
cool weather, not for the affluent, aristocratic and
fashionable, but for all men, “in season aud out of
season.”
And while we are unfortunately educated to ad
mire otbordox and fashionable churches, orthodox
and fashionable ministers preaching on orthodox
aud fashionable gospel, orthodox and fashionable
congregations sealed on orthodox and fashionable
cushions and listening to orthodox and fashionable
sermons and going to and returning from church
iu orthodox and fashionable carriages, adorned
with othoidox and fashionable postillions and foot-
men in orthodox and fashionable liveries, it is ear
ning the pomp circumstance aud pride of orthodoxy
and fashionable re igion too far to say that the gos
pel shall only be preached to the poor, unfashion
able and lfetarodox multitudes at such times as
orihordoxy deserts the watering places and other
resorts of Summer loafers and conventional Cbris-
tians.
Neither the value of human souls, the truths of
the gospel or the glory of heaven is changed by
the change of the seasons; therefore let our
churches, now about to be closed, be opened again
at once, and kept open through the year, or let
them he closed forever. The righteousness which
would establish a different rule is no better than
blasphemy, and should no longer be respected.
Open the churches and keep them open. There
are devoted and able men enough to till all their
pulpits. Give them the opportunity and the peo
ple the benefit of their labors, and remember, Ob
most proper and fashionable saints, that tbe road
to heaven does not lie along the corridors aud pa-
vi 1 lions of Summer hotels alone.— X. Y. Duily

Woman.—How continually, in retrement and
in the world, is the lesson of submission forced
upon woman. To suffer, and to be silent under
sufferings, seems tho greatest command she has to
obey,while man is allowed to wrestle with calamity,
and to conquer or die in the struggle.

As a husband, father and master, lie was

Church near twenty-five years, proved himself
worthy, prompt and unassuming, and in his last
days bore satisfactory evidence of the reality of
true and vital religion. While all we have said
be true, we claim not for him perfection. He, like

This Plantation lies oil Chattahoochee River,
five miles above Fort Gaines the western terminus
of the S. W. Rail Road, and ou the road from the
latter plaeo to Eufaula, on which a daily stage
passes; it has fine improvements to-wit—a new
two story dwelling house, large and commodious;
with seven rooms, all ceiled and painted with brick
chimneys to six rooms, a new gin house and new
cotton screw, and framed negro houses, all new
and complete. The house lot and negro houses
are well watered and so is every field on the plan
tation; with a good garden and orchards of apples
pears, poaches Ac., attached. There is about 800
acres of corn and cotton land in cultivation, all
nearly dead level, whose productive quality can
lie judged from tho fact well authenticated that 30
hands have actually cleared $63,000 from 1650 to
1857, from tlie sales of six crops of corn and cotton
made on tbe place, and this too over and above all
plantation expenses.
This Plantation lies on tlie Georgia side of the
Chattahoochee, opposite Col. Archibald McKays,
and contains about 1200 acres of land more or
less, and will be sold on tlie usual favorable cred
its of land sales, all to be specially declared on the

.South-western Georgia is the cotton growing re-
