We would state, in answer to ('apt. John
ston, of the ship Ufilled Kingdom, whose card ap
pears in another column, that our reporter's in
formation was derived from the Captain of the
steam tug that had the l uited Kingdom in tow a: i
the time of the accident. After all. there is no
materia! discrepancy Iwtwcvo tbe two statement.,
au l it looks very much like tlie.Cnptain. iu his ar

The Georgian of yesterday publishes the complaint
of the Charleston Mercury for having been left out
in the election of City Printer, after lieiug •• the
earliest to raise the issue upon which tbe election
turned,” do. Wonder if the Georgian it appre
hensive of a similar fate on its pari!
Lighting or St. Johns.—The gas was carried ,
into St. John.* Church for the first time Saturday |
evening last. We were of the number invited to |
be present to witness the illumination. The gas is j
introduced thro'two row of very elegant pendent I
rhuiidaliers. There nrc six ehandiiliers to the row
an 1 three burners attached to each, making in all
thirty six lights. Reside- these there arc others
sun plying the pulpit, desk, recess, and choir gallery,
all "f the most excellent workmanship, and in color
nr.d style corresponding with the interior of tin
bu !.ling. The upper portion of the glass globes
an- closed and -haded in order to throw the light
up .;i the congregation instead of wasting it above
where it is'not needed. The entire fixtures, we
understand, were manufactured in London, and
th, Church is indebted for tbe handsome donation
t" the liberality of a member of the congregation.
The light is soft and mellow, mid we suppose
siiiTicieut for the purposes of u worshipping assem
bly : yet, notwithstanding the largo number of
burners, the effect did not strike u- as particularly
imposing. Owing to the peculiar color of the inter
ior of the building no reasonable amount of light
can ever make anything liko a brilliant aiow-e.
We would not forget to add that the room is
most tastefully ornamented with wreaths and
festoons of evergreen, preparatory to the religious
festival* of the npproaching season—the hnndi-
w"rk, we presume, of the ladies of the congrega
tion.
SrpfiEvr CorRT.—The recent act of the Legis
lature fixes the holding of the Supreme Court as
follow*:
At Savannah—1st Mornlay in January and 2d
Monday in June.
At Macon—4th Mondny in January and 4th

A Mayor or thr Right Stamp.—Mayor Miles
of Charleston is determined thnt no delinquent shall
go unpunished. In the proceedings of the Mayor's
Cuitrt last Thursday, wo find the following item :
"The Mayor reported himself as not having a
platform front the street to the side walk as required
l,y law. Ilo fined himself $i."
Breadstuff* from tiif. South.—From Friday
noon to Sunday morning 1 tlth inst. there arrived
at Boston by sea about 2,000 barrels flour, 800
sacks rice flour, 20,000 bushels corn, 450 barrels
corn meal, and 100 sacks of wheat and rye.
Mexico.—It is said thnt the latest dispatches
received by our government from Mexico do not
confirm the overthrow of Alvarez, though they
represent the existing government a* in a very
precarious condition.
Mexican Asnkxaxiox.- The Washington cor-
rc-pondent of the New York Herald says:—Alct-
ter is in this city from General Gadsdon, our Min
ister at Mexico, giving a detailed account of the
lair conspiracy to overthrow the existing govern
ment of that country, and setting forth the
honest wish, as communicated to him hy several
of the more prominent Mexican citizens, /or
the interfoncc of the United Elates in placing
in.iiters in that country on a solid basis.-—
I nm further informed that a combination of the
wealth and respectability of Mexico has been formed
for the purpose of inviting American aggression
ini" the country, with the ultimate hope of forcing
upon the Mexicans the necessity of annexation to
th-' United States."
There are fields where one never raises the
snn.c crop twice in aueecs'ion -wheat after wheat
•or ry* after rye: we change and alternate them, and
tho harvest is good; we give n year of rep»»« anil
the harvest is better. The world of literature is
like enough to these fields of varying pro.lue-
tiveness. The eternal sower, “ who goes forth at
early dastn to sow his land," o|«m" hi* hand and

lame scenes, seen through the same intellectual
vi-ta, bring from kindred intellects different red-
tub. ps the same soul-stirring events move in a
graduated manner the pathos of this writer, or the
close reasoning of that moralist. No wonder tlion
If after all that has been said of the Kant, that

To tke American /‘tuple :
It is not lor a moment to he doubted, from tho
unusual delay in the organisation of the House by
electing a Speaker, the |ample have become in a
reasonable degree impatient, and may not truly
understand the r<i«ass which have been iustruiueu-
tal iu p*r|>vtimtiug this uuplenraiit state of allairs
at the Capitol. Briefly then to disclose these
causes, as the writer uuderrtaiids them, and upou
bis owu responsibility a* a member of tbe House,
does be deem it proper and right to refer to them
It has hy this time become thoroughly kuowu to
the country, that previous to tbe meeting of the
House, on lhe .'Id of the present month, the demo
cratic or adiiiiiiislratiou party held a caucus, nomi
nated Mr. ltiehurdsou for Speaker, aud passed a
resolution embodying their sentiment* upon some
of the present issues Iwfore the country, mid most
uuuecessanh, u* well as offensively, charging the
American party w ith "violently assailing civil and
religious liberty." The uiiuuimity exhibited iu
adopting the resolution wa* only broken by tho
withdrawal of the llou. William Smith of Virgi
nia, who retired from the caucus immediately after
its rcadiug. Here, then, we hnve the democratic
! members of the House of Representative.* (forty-
| eight of them) assuming to beexelusivelypatriotic
aud national, denouncing the American members
of the same body, ami resolving it to lie their high
est duty to maintain and defend tho principles of
the Kansas-Nebraska bill, aud the constitutional
right* of every section. They declare themselves
the opponent.* of the Americans, the Repuldieaus
ami the Fusiouisis, and there they take their stand
before the people.
The Americans, those elected as nuch, aud sjnt
here to represent the true sentiments of the Ameri
can organization, found, on comparing notes, and
ascertaining each other's views, that instead of har
monising and standing on the same basis, they j
were a duality, the men of a section, aud the tueu '
of the country. With tbe former, the latter canid
not act, for there wu* but a limited identity ofprin-

Austria is about to address an ultimatum, suiuuioii-
ing Russia, under the threat of breaking olf nego
tiations with her. to accept those conditions of
peace which the Wcslcrii Cower* rau admit at pres
ent, hut which they will not as .-out to alter auother
successful campaign.
The Berlin correspondent of tho London Morn
ing Chronicle, under dale of the 4th iust., says :
" It is impossible to sepurute what is true from
what is false in the peace rumors. It is no dould
true that all the cabinet* are anxious forpeuce, hut
it is equally true that it caunol tie said that nego
tiation* are goiug forward —as at the utmost, pre
paratory step* only are being made. Austria main
tain* the validity of the treaty of December 2,
and lienee all attempts of other German states to
exercise a pressure ou the Western Cowers, with a
view of pacification, have been completely pnral-
yxod. Austria, moreover, is uow ready to accept
tbe interpretation given to tbe third of the four
Vienna Conference points. Crussia has urgently
demanded at St. Cctersburgh that Russia should
:xpoiiciits of the broad and euiuprobonidva J name the eoadtUuM to whiolt alt* i.
views of the untioiiul men. It was evident. th>
that in the House there would he three parties con
tending for the organisation, or rather two in the
attitude of contestants, while the third stood iu the
gup, and stand there still, with the black flag of
republicanism waving on one side of them, and the
democratic banner, stained with au insult, flung to
tbe breese on the other. It is due to themselves,
and due to theeouutr.v, thnt they should maintain
their position, and refuse their aid to place in the
Speaker's chair, either Richardson or Bunks. They
w ill uot assist iu organising the House upon a sec
tional issue, nor nro they disposed to per|«tuatc
the blessings heaped upon a noble and generous
people, by the policy or measures of the present ad- communication whatever from Russia.
ud.y t.
this demand of Prussia i
Russia's reply
nfliruied to be conciliatory, but vague. The cubi-
nct of St. Petersburg!) shrinks from the difficulty
of making proposals that it may have the morlili-
cutiou to see rejected.
•• The cabinets of Munich and Dresden, promo
ted to a more influential position by tho policy of
France, have also essayed to influence Russia. The
measures they took to llmt end were highly ap
proved of at Car is, hut it rciuaiu* to he seen wheth
er they will be successful. Our best politicians arc
evenly divided. Some think peace near, and oth
ers distant. The most reliable facts indicate thut
the state of affairs stand* thus: There bus been uo
ministration.
At the commencement of the session, the Nation
al Americans decided to cast their votes for the
lion. Humphrey .Marshall, hccattse he was with
them in sentiment ami feeling, and deprecated sec
tionalism as wholly out of place iu the popular re
presentative body. He stood upou the America!)
platform, anil believed thut we were nil eitisens of
a common country, under the broad egis
"f a Constitution whose every obligation it is our
highest and most patriotic duty to fulfil, Mr.
Marshall's inline being subsequently withdrawn as
a candidate, the votes of our .-mall but resolute
band became somewhat scattered, but finally con
cent rated upon the Hon. Henry M. Fuller, of
Pennsylvania, a noble son of the Keystone State,
and a man who dignifies the appellation of an
American citizen. He knows no North, no South,
no East, no West; but. giving thanks to God that
hi.* lot has been east in this land of premise and
inqie. he bear* aloft the flag of hi* country, and.
pointing to its broad and ample folds, lie bids us
witness the insignia of freedom's last refuge, and
■oir passport through the realm, of civilization.
Forty odd Conservative National Americans now
hold the balance of power in tho House, and are
struggling with fidelity to arrest the consummation
ol a seetioual or Administration success. An in
telligent people cannot fail to jicreeivc the dignity
and propriety of their position. The black flag
shall never wave over the Speaker's chair, if their
efforts and constancy can avert so dire a calami
ty. If the people iltnire the success of either the
Democratic or Free-Soil Republican aspirants now
before the llou*e for the honors and emolument*
of the Speakership, tho accomplishment of their
wi-hes can lie iu some way, 1 presume, brought
about. The sign* of the times are ominous of pros-,
pc.-tive calamities to the Union—who shall avert!

Mkhsr*. Editors:-On examining your pa|»er
of Saturday umrniug, I perceive aoiuu would-be
oracle lias made a very enlarged statement about
th* ship United Kingdom getting aground and af
terwards floating, iu which ho <!e»cril*e* her as
*we«<piug and damaging u w hole fleet of ship* in
her untoward swing. 1 beg to state the truth with
regard to this ifiattor. The l iiitod Kingdom did
taku the gruuudou Friday umruiug, caused by the
Master of tho barque Yankee Uludu casting off a
forward spring before the time, as ho states his
ship was not properly fast and could uot bold u*.—
A* there wa* no place sufficient to moor my ship
to, she lay till uext flood. I then hud a steamboat
alongside and Pilot ou board, when wu floated oil,
and the flood tide actiug on our starboard quarter,
awuug us round, ns a matter of course. We clear
ed everything, merely parting the boom-loping*
left of u lighter, a rope not stouter Ilian our lead
line. The only other damage wu* the staving in
of our siiiiiII boat, which was in the davits ut the
time. We took the needful mean* to secure her
till she iigain floated, when wo were towed to our
berth with ease by the steamer Sampson.
My ship drawstoo much water for the mud bauka
of this river, and a stranger, in a port where there
seeiu* to be uo rule, or if any not executed, though
I guess we pay for such, may get into a little diffi
culty, but a sailor generally gut* out of such with
out much gas. If there were proper rules, and
strictly enforced, such uccidciit* would he seldom
met with, even with the largest class of ship*, ami
iu shullow water. 1 hope the next time your ma
rine correspondent writes on such mutters, he will
have something more worthy of his pen, if not of
more lieiiefit to the floating dock.
