COOL WEATHER.
Yesterday morning was very cool for this
season of the year, so much so that broadcloth
was decidedly comfortable and stray sun
beams were eagerly sought after. Towards
noon, however, thc weather bccamo uncomfor
tably warm.
Bill or Fare at tiie Teleorapii Office.—
Yesterday was festival day at the Telegraph of
fice. At high noon, or a little thereafter, Isaacs’
sable mercury entered, bearing on his tray
fresh mullet—the first of thc season—think of
that; fresh oysters do., and reflect upon fresh
oysters to a man in thc up country who bade
them a long, lingering farewell full five months
ago; a dish of broiled birds, a thing to be appre
ciated always on the mere naming—jelly, fresh
breads, butter Ac., and so on—crowning the
whole with a bottle of Old London Dock. At
any other time we could write a glowing para
graph upon sti m a theme, but now thc wings
of fancy are o'crlulcn. We have dined—thanks
to Isaacs and lung may he wave. If any body
wishes to duplicate that repast let him drop into
Isaacs’ on Cherry street, a little below the Tele
graph office, wheie the boys have punched a.
hole through the cloth lantern, and he will feel

Cass said when they told him just after dinner,

MA1NE ELECTION.
It seems that the Black Republican ticket
is elected in Maine, by such decisive majorities
as to satisfy everybody of the fact on very im
perfect returns. This is a bad lick. At thc
last election two of the Congressional districts
were closely contested. The gubernatorial
majority in 1839 was 11,988. This year it
will in all probability be increased. This re
sult in Maine cannot fail to lend a new and
strong impetus to old Abe, and is itself in all
probability, a foretaste of what’s coming. We
started out in this canvass with thc impression
that thc Northern States would go solid for the
abolitionists but latterly have been trying to de
lude ourself into thc hope that some of them
might be wrested from thc enemy by the com
bination' This Maine business does not look
lik' ‘L It sounds a key note with any thing
jut a melodious or harmonious twang to our
ears. Still, Pennsylvania with a margin of
173,000 majority against Fremont, ought to be
saved by effort and a coalition, and Douglas
may possibly carry his own State, but we fear
he will not With Pennsylvania, Oregon and
California, Lincoln would be defeated, and
leave two votes to spare. New York is the re
maining hook to hang a hope upon, with a
margin of 44,000 votes over Fremont in 1836.
Wc are afraid that hook is not particularly strong
or well secured, but still great efforts will be
made to save it
This is thc whole story of clianccs to defeat
Lincoln. Neither Breckinridge, Douglas nor Bell
rebels, or hang them in cold blood as traitors,
if they shall render obedience to State rather
than Federal authority—is repugnant to every
sense of right, and merits, from the people of
thc South, thc severest rebuke. Such a rebuke,
we sincerely hope, will be given the doctrines
and its author at the November elections.

Baltimore, Sept. 8, 1860.
Arrest of a noted thief and Burglar.
Officer Gorman, yesterday arrested the noto
rious Lew Ward, one of the most consumate
thieves and Burglars in the country. Ward
has for a long time been connected with the
most noted thieves of New York, Philadelphia,
Boston and Baltimore. He was a partner of
the celebrated Capt. Green, now in thc Mary
land Penitentiary for a Burglary committed
upon the store of Mr. Sunerwine of this city,
lie was also tho Pal of the accomplished thief
and confidence man, Doc Stone and other noted
cracksmen. He is now arrested for participa
ting in the attempted robbery of thc safe of
Samuel Goruz, Auctioneer, and the successful
robbery of a large amount of jewels at the Gil
mor house. Shortly afler the above robberies,
detective Gorman got upon his track, and he
was so tightly pressed as to be compelled to
leave his carpet sack, which was captured by
Gorman, and it was found to contain one of the
most complete assortments of Burglars tools
ever seen. It also contained among other
things, a memorandum of thc names and num
bers of a number of stores and dwellings,
marked for robbery. It contained numerous
skeleton keys, marked with the number of the
stores to which they were to be applied, and
among others, that of Mr. Gorn’s. Officer
Gorman has done the whole country a service
by the arrest of this noietl rouocr. He was at
once committed for the action of the Grand Ju'
ry. Doctor Stone is also now in custody, so
that it is likely these two famous and danger
ous villians will be kept from the practice of
their nefarious arts for some time to come.

GARIBALDI'S MARRIAGE.
The Paris correspondent of the New Orleans
Picayune, gives the following interesting ac
count of Garibaldi’s Marriage and its denoue
ment :
I dare say you liave heard a great many allu
sions to Garibaldi’s marriage, and have been
rather puzzled to form an opinion whether he
was or was not married, the whole matter being
shrouded in mystery. I think I can tell you
the whole story. He was engaged to marry
Miss Josephine Rayinondi, a “daughter” (so
every body said) of the Marquis Rayinondi, a
wealthy Milan landed proprietor. The Mar
quis Raymondi lives with Ronconi’s wife’s sis
ter, and Miss Josephine Rayinondi is the eldest
of thc five children (all daughters) that have is
sued from this union. She is a tall brunette,
with brilliant eyes, regular, but prominent fea
tures, and a rather Hat face. She is two-and-
twenty years old. Last summer when the Ital
ian campaign was at its height, the Marquis
Raymond! and his family were residing at his
summer residence, Fino Castle, which is some
fifteen or eighteen miles from Milan, and is
situated on thc western bank of Lake Coino.—
Garibaldi and his band were at Varese. He
bad entered Como a few days before, and made
the acquaintance of the Marquis of liaymondi
and his family. The Austrians had inarched
forward, out of all communication between Co
mo and Varese, intending to concentrate their
forces by different roads on Varese in large num
bers, so as to surround and crush Garibaldi and
his followers.
The Podestct (Mayor) of Como was anxious
to communicate this intelligence to Garibaldi,
and made a proclamation to his fellow-citizens,
vwtiiu n ia|»v*ii vraa\; wi»iv . v . « ■■■
risk his life for Garibaldi’s safety. Nobody of
fered. When Miss Josephine Raymondi heard
of this, she became indignant at the cowardice
of inen, and offered herself as a volnntecr, say
ing to the Podcstat: “Give me the dispatch.
I will go to Garibaldi, and will bring back his
reply.” Thc Podcstat hesitated to accept from
young girl of one-and-twcuty (who by rear
son of her sex ran much greater risks than
man would be exposed to) services deemed by
men too hazardous to lie encountered. But
Miss Josephine Raymondi insisted so strenu
ously that the dispatches should be given her
that the Podestat yielded; besides, whom else
had he to send, and the danger pressed? She
got on her horse, and in an instant disappear
ed in thc mountain’s defiles. She knew every
path that lay between Como and Varese, for
from her youth she had trod them all afoot or
on horseback. She escaped thc Austrians, and
at sunrise was at Garibaldi’s camp. She deliv
ered the dispatch into his hands. She return
ed home as safely as she had gone to her des
tination. Being forewarned. Garibaldi was
forearmed; he forced Borgho Vico defile, and
drove back the Austrians beyond Lake Como.
After thc peace was made at Villafranca, Gari
baldi paid the Marquis Raymondi a visit at Fi
no Castle, for thc fair warrior of Como had
made a deep impression on him. lie asked
her in marriage of her father. The Marquis
was delighted at the proposition, and instantly
gave his consent, and thc marriage was an
nounced everywhere in the neighborhood, and
was soon heard of throughout Europe.
When the Marquis told Josephine that he had
given her hand to the Liberator of Italy, she
appeared stupefied, rather than delighted. She
could not refuse to wed Garibaldi, for every
Italian regards him os something more than a
demi-god—besides, what pretext could she give?
Her family took her stupefaction for the emo
tion natural to her sex at this supreme hour of
woman’s life, and they hastened thc prepara
tions for thc marriage. Thc whole Raymondi
family was soon collected at Fino Castle. Gari
baldi came with all his friends, and a second
marrirge was soon negotiated between Garibal
di’s son and a younger sister (said to be a beau
ty) of Josephine Rayinondi. All at once, and
the day before the time appointed for thc mar
riage, Miss Josephine fell sick. It was hoped
she would be better thc next day; on thc con
trary, she became worse; two—three—four—
five days came and went; Miss Josephine be
came worse. The physician said it was nothing
serious, and at last the father of the bride deter
mined to make her dress, and have her carried to
the altar; the marriage was to be celebrated in
thc chapel in his castle. It became necessary
to take sonic measure of this sort, for all Uie
newspapers in Europe were making inquiries on
the subject, and several persons from remote
cities had quitted their ordinary avocations to
act as Garibaldi’s groomsmen, (among them
Mons. Alex. Dumas) and they could not be ex
pected to wait there indefinitely dancing atten
dance upon a woman’s vapors. The marriage
at the rate of eleven miles jer hour.
The clerk makes the foll>wing statement:—
The Lady Elgin left the po t of Chicago at Half-
past 11 o’clock for Lake Sipcrior. Among thc
passengers were the Unioi Guards, of Milwau
kee, composing part of souc 250 excursionists
from that city. About Jalf-past two o’clock
this morning, the schoomr Augusta, from Os
wego, came into collision with the Lady Elgin,
when about ten miles from shore. The vessel
struck the steamer at mid-ships gangway, on
the Iarlioa’d side. The two separated instant
ly, and the Augusta drifted by in thc darkness.
At the raiment of the collision there was mu
sic and ■ Jancing in the forward cabin. In an
instant after thc crush all was still, and in half
an hour the steamer sunk. I passed through
the cabiis. The ladies were pale but silent.—
There ms not a cry nor a shriek; no sound
but a rush of steam and surge of heavy seas.
Whether they were not fully aware of thc dan
ger, or thether their appalling situation made
them spechless, I cannot tell. The boat was
lowered it once with the design of going round
on the larboard side to examine the leak. There
were twe other boats, but just at that moment
some peison possessed himself of one of them,
and we qere left powerless to manage the boat.
We succtcded once in reaching thc wheel but
were drifted away, and thrown upon thc beacli
at Wynela. Only two boats left the steamer;
one of than contained thirteen persons, all of
whom wire saved. The other bore eight, but
four of wloin reached the shore alive, the oth
er four beng drowned at the beach.
No acciratc list or number of persons on
hoard can be given, but the following estimate
is nearly cirrcct: Excursion party, 300 ^regu
lar passengers, 50; steamer’s crew, 35. Of
these, but 98 arc saved.
CapL Milott, of the schooner Augusta, in
his stateiusnt says, when he discovered the
steamer’s Ights, both red and bright, he sup
posed her to be from a quarter to a half mile
distant, and steering between North and North
east. It was raining very hard at the time,
and we kept our vessel on her course, East by
South, until we saw a collision nrolialilc, when
we put helm hard up str ” c *
two or three J“ st ab . aft the
on the port side. The steamer
kept on her course, the engine being in full
motion and heading tho Augusta round to thc
North side of the steamer. We got separated
in about a minute, when the Augusta fell into
a trough in the sea, and all thc head gear, the
gib-boom and staunchers were carried away.
We took in sail and cleared away the anchor,
supposing the vessel would fill. After clear
ing up the wreck we got up thc foresail. We
succeeded in getting before the wind and stood
for land. We lost sight of the steamer five
minutes after the collision.
Mr. Bccrnan, second mate of thc Lady Elgin,
states that at half-past two o’clock a squall
struck us. Ir( five minutes more we saw the
lights of a vessel one point off port bow. I
sang out, “haul a port’’ The vessel seemed
to pay no attention and struck us, justforward
of the paddleAox, on the larboard side, tear
ing off thc whtcl, cutting through the gnards
into the cabin and hull. We were steering
North-west by West a point to thc windward.
Our course wasnt that time North-west Af
ter striking us, the vessel hnng a moment and
then got clear. 1 went below to see what dam
age was done. When I got back the vessel
was gone.
When intelligence of the loss of the steamer
with the excursion party reached Mihvaukie
yesterday, it spread like wildfire throughout
the city. The telegraph office was thronged
all day with the relatives and friends of those
on boord, many of whom were presented with
dispatches in tears, and thc most intense an
xiety and excitement were manifested on thc
countenance of all. In thc first Ward of that
city it is said there was scarcely a house or a
place of bnsiness that had not lost some inmate
or employee.
All thc survivors unite in according to CapL
Jack Wilson, the commander the great praise
for his bravery and daring throughout. He
was foremost in confronting danger. He was
drowned within an hundred feet of thc shore.
Nearly one hundred persons arrived within fif
ty yards of the beach, but were swept back by
returning waves and lost Up to 9 o’clock to
night, only 21 bodies were recovered most of
whom have been recognized by friends as resi
dents of Milwaukic.

substance of a tin tinnabulatory performance by
the merry Bell-ringer in yesterday’s Augusta
Chronicle. We cut it out for reference when
thc election is over and the Bell-Everetts arc
groping around among the ruins of crushed
hopes to find a State which has gone for them.
They give us four—wc think they may possi
bly carry one, but that is doubtfuL The influ
ences which will shape thc result are now fast
developing. The Northern vote will concen
trate on Lincoln and the Southern vote on
Breckinridge. Bell-ringing will be abortive.—
Douglas’ boasted “ hold upon tho masses” will
resolve itself into just that portion of the North
ern Democracy which adhere to him—Breck-
■nridge will take the remainder. Thc North
ern vote of either alone will not be worth a
straw for 'any available purpose—combined,
they may divide some Northern electoral votes,
perhaps enough to defeat Lincoln. If not, thc
“ Giving it up,” will be to the Black Republi
cans and old Abe. Of all the candidates in the
field Bell has the least popular strength, but if
his friends in tho North throw their inite into
the common stock of opposition it may bo use
ful. That is all, in our judgment, which can
be predicated or hoped for from thc Bell sensa
tion.
“The Sooth Alone Snoi’LD Govern the
South,” &c.—We are indebted to the author
for a copy of this pamphlet, the greater part of
which is a speech delivered in St John’s Colle
ton, by Hon. John Townsend. It is an argu
ment for thc secession of the South and the for
mation of a new government for herself, when
Lincoln is elected. So soon as the result of
the election is known, the author is in favor of
a Convention of the States, and an election of a
Southern President and Congress; and his ar
gument is, that wc must take that or be driven
to a worse alternative. He maintains that thc
North has become essentially a hostile section—
is bent on abolitionizing thc South, and wheth
er shc can accomplish it or not, so sensitive an
institution as African slavery cannot be safely
entrusted in any of its interests, to unfriendly
hands.
This pamphlet is generally temperate in its
statements, and we have no doubt correctly
represents tho animus of the Lincoln party.—
Their aim is emancipation! True, most of their
leaders ride thc anti-slavery sentiment of tho
North as a mere hobby, and not one well-in
formed man among them, can doubt that eman
cipation would be equally mischievous to thc
black population and thc country at large. But
an .inexorable necessity is upon them. They
must lead abolition opinion or be crushed by it

with disorderly conduct It appears that ho
had stored in his hold a force carco of fighting
whiskey, under the effects of which he com
mitted several acts positively prohibited by
the laws made for thc government of this city.
He entered the yard of a lady, and demolished
such things as were laying loosely around, and
frightened the lady almost out of her wits.—
He then went to his own house, and inflicted
a sound thrashing upon thc partaker of his
joys and sorrows, and then cursed one of his
neighbors in varied terms, accusing him of
chicken stealing, &c. After exhausting hi-
rage he lay down and slept as calmly as Napo
leon did before a battle. His Honor ordered
him to pay $15 and cost.
AN UNPLEASANT SURPRISE.
A friend of ours related to us the following a
short time since, which is too good to be lost

the fire crackers must have sounded like the

Salt a Preventive of Rust in Cotton.—Ac
cording to a correspondent of thc Milledgeville
Recorder, who recently visited Mr. Dickson’s
plantation in Hancock, salt is a preventive of
rust in cotton. The writer says:—
We took peculiar interest in examining the
result ofan experiment made by Mr. Dickson,
which, to our entire satisfaction, went to show
that salt is aprerentire of the rust in cotton.
Four rows of cotton were planted in thin
land. One manured with guano alone; the sec
ond with salt alone; the third with guano and
salt; tho fourth left without manure. The
row that was manured with salt and guano did
decidedly thc best—was full of bolls aud not
affected by the rust That manured with gu
ano alone was rusted and did not do near as
well; also, the one that had no manure was still
more indifferent—badly rusted—not worth the
labor of planting, The row that had sale alone
applied to it, hail not near as much fruit as
where the guano had been used, but the cotton
was thrifty and growing, full of leaves and had
no rust This result satisfied us that guano,
or any other manure and salt in a judicious pro
portion, is a preventive of thc rust

The city Criminal Court commenced its Sep
tember term this morning. There will be a
large number of important cases disposed of at
this term of the Court Thc Exchange has a
scathing article in this morning’s issue, in which
it cites the course of the States’ Attorney, Mil-
ton Whitney, before the Grand Jury, a ’ s ’a fit
subject for their investigation. It is shown from
the report of the States’ Attorney himself that
he is, or was at the time the report was written,
a defaulter to the State, and as such, was not
entitled to the office which he holds, and should
be impeached and expelled. The editors of tho
Exchange are said to be able lawyers, and well
understand what they say. It is not improba
ble that such conduct will be the subject of in
vestigation by the Grand Jury, and if so, he
will have to undergo a severe ordeal, as the
Jury is now composed of men of such a clittrac-
acter as will not screen or overlook any thing
which he may have done amiss.’ There is not
a doubt, but that nine-tenths of thc friends of
law, order, and justice, would be pleased if Mr.
Whitney would resign anil allow the opportuni
ty of supplying his place with one in whom
they have more confidence.
The town was startled about 9 o’clock last night
by a report that Rass Levy had been shot and
killed by John English. The police office was
crowded by persons anxiously awaiting to bear
the particulars of the important event. The ex
citement, however, was of but short duration
and the dailies cheated out of their morning ex
tras, as thc report proved false. Judging from
thc sensation produced by this report, it might
have been safely calculated that some public
demonstration would bavc been made, if the
event had really happened. It is well known
that these two worthies, who for the last three
years, have been sworn brothers of the Bloody
Plugs, and each has killed his man, have re
cently quarrelled and are now at daggers points,
and are probably, each, awaiting a favorable
chance to fly at the other’s throat Threats the
