The Overflow.—Our Now Orleans tiles roceiv*
yesterday, si* o truly sad accounts of tho devasta
tion by the overflow of the Mississippi. Tho ef
fects are moat seriously felt in Washing-ot coun-
tjr, Mi«*ieeippi,and Plaquemines Parish,Loui-iana,
where vast numbers of tho best plantations in tin-
West aro torn to piece* or completely submerged.
The Aew Beacon.
The Herbor Light, about to bo erected at the
•ait of the Bay, is designed os a guido for vend*
from the lewer end of Fig Island. To distinguish
it from all other lights in that portion of tho city,
the enclosing glass of tho lantern will bo of a red
oolor.
The structure will consist of a cast iron shnfr.
rsaembllng in form and proportions r largo candle
atiok, having a height of tbirty-fivo feet from its
base to the centre of the light. The base will be
of granite, oetngonol io plan, to which tbo shall
will be firmly secured, and the framo of the lnntert.
surmounting the shaft, will be of iron nnd octagon
al in its oatline. It is proposed to uso gas fur this
light irntcid of oil, and to increase its brilliancy a
Fresnel lens of the sixth order will be introduced,
which will refract the greater part of the light
emitted from the large gas burner, so as to throw
tho raja out in horizontal linos and thus give
greater concentration and intensity. As tho lens
to be introduced is one of 3C0° it will throw o
handsome light in front of the City Exchange and
Custom House, as woll as down the river.
To light the gas at the top of the shaft, it is pro
posed to use a sliding taper that will bo drawn up
through the centre of the column until itrenchc!
the burner—the gas having been turned on from
below.
A movenblo rope ladder will bo attached to the
atruoture for ascending to tho lantern when the
glasses require cleaning, or when repairs become
necessary.
The tctal height of this beacon above low tide
level in the river, Is about eighty-three feet. The
workmen broke ground for tho foundation Thurs
day last, and the structure will bo completed in the
course of a few weeks.
Medical Lecturi to Ladiks.-Mts. Mansfield’s
Lecture to Ladies will be found announced in our
advertising columns this morning.
The interesting and valuable character of thi*
lecture may bo judged somewhat by the extracts
from papers in other places, which accompany the
advertisement.
Thousands of ladies, it is said, in tho first social
clr-les throughout the Union, have expressed wn*-«i
mad earnest nod ovon enthusiastic au’mi ntion o (he
■iyo and character of her discourses, their ii ter-
•it and their valuable amount of practical inform-
atioQ delicately conveyed in a manner indicating
and even proving an extended and accurate
knowledge of the causes and nature of the illness
ao i weaknesses so prevalent, especially among
ladies of cultivation and refinement.
The lecture, it will bo seen, commences at 11 o’-
elook Tuesday morning, if ft docs not storm. It
Will dote at about 12 o’clock. *
We need no better evidence of the real object of
the convention which has held its session annu
ally In the South for some yenrs past, nnd con
cealed its true character by adopting a fraudulent
name, than the sentiments of the gentleman they
have selected as their permanent President, Mr. J.
D. B. DeBow.
Mr. President DeBow made an address, Thurs
day evening last, before tho Alumni Society of
the Charleston College, of which wo find the fol
lowing notice in the Mercury of tho day follow-
Ing:
“As tho community will soon bo afforded nn
opportunity of reading for themselves this truly
Southern and patriotic speech, wo will do no more
than simply congratulate our fellow citizens that
we hive still in our midst men who onterhiin do
tided views and Hiito to express them. Disunion
Mr. DeRoio looks forward to at the haven of our
rest, and our rock of refuge."
JJJWe donotproposo to reply tosuch sentiments, or
to question the right of Mr. DeBow to utter thorn,
even on a purely literary occasion. Wo commend
him for his honost declarations, especially as they
aro rnado just on tho evo of another meeting of his
pet convention. Tho public will no longer grope
in the dork by the aid of false lights, nnd tho
southern people can now determine whether the
leadership of such a man is a info one for themselves
and for the country.
American Medical Convention,—This body
held its annual session in Washington city, last
week. W® find nothing of general interest in its
proceedings. A resolution wns adopted miming

Pension Fraddb.—Isaac Holoombe, of Fnyotte
county, Ga., has beon arrested by tho officors of tho
Pension Bureau, to await liia trial for the coin-
mission of frauds in obtaining revolutionary pen
sions.
Tho Pension Offico has received official informa
tion of the conviction of James U. Buchanan, of
Arkansas, orrested some months ago by Us order
for forgery and other frauds in obtaining bouuty
land warrants.
Savannah Funds In Charleston*
The Charleston Evening AWs, in copying nn
article from tho Republican stating that .Savannah
funds aro at a premium iu tho furinor city, re
marks:
“Now wo deny most eraphntioally tho purport of
tills statement, evidently designed to dissuminoto
the impression that Savannah credits nnd hills nro
gonorully lit a premium of three-r/uarter per cent.
In Charleston. Her bills ore only bankable «t par,
nnd no bank hero would sell n draft on Suvnmmb
Mow par, or for less than n premium for the dif
ference of exchange. Tho above statement is
founded on n special case, where the fears or inter
cJt of the party induced the transaction. Tho
hunks and merchants of Charleston, much strong-
er than those of Savannah nnd Augusta combined,
and having stable credits in the great marts of the
world, hear with perfect complacency this small
'fire in the rear.*”
The t'cM»riVr,with its characteristicoxtravngnnco
—for it never fails to “run thing.* into the ground’
a little deeper than a’ y body else—takes up tho
matter nn*l favors its readers with the following
specimen of financial M highfalutin"—(wo crave
pardon for tho word):
Their 1‘ar Value,—Tho Evening News, of yes
terday, in noticing somo rather niuiuing com
ments on tho fact that Savannah Exchange had
been sold at a premium in this city, says that 8«i-
vauiinb hills iu Charleston “aro only bankable at
par.” Very true; and everybody who has any
thing to do with Georgia money knows that even
this is par complaisance and not oy any means
par r.rci lit nv.
This strugglo against an unpiensnnt truth is
infinitely diverting. It appears to us that tho
A’eirs, whilo apparently attempting to controvert
our position, makes a substantial confession of its
truth. It tbo Charleston banks, ns stated, refuse
to sell bills on Savannah “for less than «i premium
for the difference in exchange," our statement is
entirely correct. Why this “premium,” and dif
ference in exchange, if Charleston money is as
good at homo us are bills uud checks on Savan
nah.
Tho boast about tho strength of the banks nnd mer
chants of Charleston,come* with an ill-grace.at least
ao far us tho former are concerned, nnd involves a
fraud on tho public. It U useless for ono to boast
of hi® fiouucinl strength who is, confessedly, una
ble to pay his debts, or who, when able, perpe
trates n wr<ng upon his creditors by n refusal to
pay. Prompt responses to all liabilities aro the
only test of financial soundness, nnd our Carolina
friends will soon find out the fact. It will not do t
in this cnlighlenod financial ago, for the banks to
bar up their doors nnd continually proclaim from
tho house-top that they are honest and solvent,
and all tho time refusing to ].»y.
As to the Courier's contemptuous fling at the
standing if Georgia currency in Charleston, it is
only worthy of notice when that paper sliiill be
able to give n reason for its assertion. We defy
it to givo one why it should be so. But in point
of fact tho statement is without foundation. Geor
gia bills have been piwsing at par amongst tho
merchants i.f Charleston ai d taken on deposit by
their banks for years past.
In further eqqort of the statement contained
in our iiist attieic, and in answer to the gassy ex
plosions of :he Cinritstoit press, Wi-give tlio loi-
lowing extract Iruinu letter now before u-,written
by a business house in that city, and dated Cih
insi
” Exchange on Savannah and Attgfsm com
mands '>i.e p, r feat, piem ium; Savannah and Au
gusta notes are in dem in«J, and very scarce.*’
This looks very like tolerating Georgia money
in Charleston !
We may also add the following incident shewing
to what straits the very best of tho Charleston
banks arc driven while tho newspapers nro trying
to puff them into nn easy position:
A gentleman of Georgia was in Charleston last
week nnd had a check on the Bank of Charlu-ton,
ono of tho few specie-paying banks «»f that city.—
Ho presented it nnd asked f- r their own bill 8
in payment, which they refused. llo then
asked for Georgia notes, stating that they
would answer him ns woll, and that he hud under
stood they were nt a discount in Carolina. This
they also re'u-e- 1 , uml gave him notes on tho Bunk
of the Stnto of South Carolina.
Such facts are a complete answer to all tho the
ories and beasts of tho Charleston Press.

Tnr. Amkkicanb and Kansas.—Our friend of
the Augusta Constitutionalist doc? not “play fair”
in its comment on our urticle upon the late Amer
ican triumph. We were arguing on democratic
premises, and tho conclusion is nt least good
against Democrats, himself nrnong tho number.—
We defy any of them to controvert the logic!
Again: tho apparent inconsistency between our
article of Saturday (in which we put in the claim
f>r tho Americans) and our article of Thursday
(ah' wi ig who were tho real “traitors to tho South’
this linn), is no itcon-retency at a!i. Each is based
Oa good democrat c authority, only that Democra
cy is divided against itxlt'on tho joints in ques
tion. Iberj are two distinct wings among tho
southern D,moerney on this Kansas result. One,
ropris uited by tho Constitutionalist, arc throwing
up their hats over tin administration triumph un i
a vindication of southern rights nnd honor; our
claim in behalf of tho Americans is good against
this wing. The second, of whom tho Savannah
tie trginn may bo considered a representative, nro
gnushing their teeth and swearing tho South has
been betrayed, dogrnded nnd disgraced ; our ar
gument of Thursday, proving treason upon the
democratic party, is perfectly unanswerable against
this wing. Does our friend of the Vonttitntioimh'sl
comprehend?
A' to our being tin “outsider," to this “English'’
fight: that is the very position from which we may
take an honest nnd impartial survey of the field.
As to crowing over the passage of this American
hill with a British nntne, and which nobody seems
to comprehend—wo don’t intend to do It. We have
air a iy sai l that wo have a certain degree of con
tempt for all (ii.it species of legi-latimi, but a Mil]
greater contempt f«*r A’"»»»«», and have no particu
lar objection to seeing tbo buzzard driven out by
tho crow. Had wo been n member of the House
and convinced that tin: English bill was tbo Iasi
and only resort, to get rid id Kansas we might have
voted for tho novel experiment, but under no other
circumstances.
UV again insist that tho Constitutionalist do
justice to tbo Southern Americans, on its onn
promises.
Tammany II kit sat to “ Cuow.”—Tho great
Tninmnny Society o| Now York, eomidured the
oraclo of Democracy iu that quarter, refuses to
glorify over tho lute “triumph of tbo Administra
tion.” They held u meeting Monday night of
last wouk, nnd us soon its a member rose wish reso
lutions congratulatory on the pa-sago of the Eng-
li*h bill, n motion w® made to ii'lj.,urn nnd tbo
meo'ing dispersed. This, again, i »> ks badly for
our democratic friends. The Daily AV» * fears,
and not without reason, “that the tomahawk,once
wielded with nirh effect by tho braves of tho old
wigwam, lias passed into tbo bands of tbo fquutv®
nnd old man, who are more ready to oat the maize
and Miioko the caluiut(eulumet?; of penro with their
double tongue 1 foes linn to give the war shout for
their grout father at Washington.”
Strange that Democrats are so blind that they
cannot sec that their party has completely broken
down and gone to tho dogs!
A New Democratic 1’i.or against tre Tiika-
scry.—A Wiisbinglon correspondent says : “line
of tho most extraordinary propositions that will
bo under consideration in Otigrc-s is tbo Pension
bill of Mr, havuge. According to the report of
tho Commissioner of Pensions, who was called
upon for tiio information, this bill in itu original 1
shape will cull for about eleven millions of dollars |
n year, and with the iinlicipuleil amendments for j
time It more, probably nonr twenty millions. Were j
it not for tbo strange legislative vagaries of the j
present C'ongrers, it would badly bo necessary to
speak of this monstrous proposition : it would die
under tiio weight ol its own absurdity. There is
not, however, the least probubiliy of such a bill
passing the Hunato, should oven tlie House pass it.

Confctalon*
A Bailor dto.1 recently in Toxss, nnd on his donth
bod con faired that ho wns ono of tho crow who
murdered Mrs. Alston, of South Carolina, thirty
years ago. Mrs. Alston was the daughter of Aaron
Burr. She sailed from Charleston for Now ^ or i c i
in n brig, and on tho trip the crow mullniod, und
murdered all tho officers and passengers, Mrs. Al*
‘ton bolng tho last ono made to walk the plunk.—
Tho sailor remembered iter look of despair, nnd
died iu tho greatest agony of mind. Mrs. Alston
was ut ium time a resident of Wilmington, Dela
ware. Her diMippeiiruuco remained a mystery for
many long years, aud was Iho subjoct of a thousand
conjectures.
The above is going tho rounds of tiio press. We.
have no doubt it is but a rehash of nu old story
that was extensively published some fifteen or
twenty years ago, nnd which, when traced up,
proved to bo wholly groundless. Tiio incidents of
the two versions are alino-t identical.
Independent Pointful Movement In
North Carolina.
Wo observe by the Raleigh Register thnt Dun
can M. K. McRae, Esq., announces hiinstlf nt tiio
earnest «oliuitution of many personal friends, nn
independent cindiduto fer tlm Governorship of
North Carolina. Ho lias heretofore been n Demo
crat, but asserts his determination to bo bound by
no parly tie? uud controlled by no puUcul platforms.
The Register, a strong Whig j >urnul, and favor-
ably inclined towards AincricunRm, proclaim* its
determination to support him. This looks liko n
formidable movement iu tLo “Ohl North State,”
once so gallantly Whig, and so true to Henry Clay
toward? a determined conservative opposition to
modern Democracy, with a view to tiio lormation
of a liberal, independent, national Union party.
We shall not be surprised to hear of other South
ern States emulating tho example of North Caro
lina.
A Piiowkhi.k Pki.iran*.—The Atlanta .4»ifri*vw
learns from a Mr. Boyd, of Webster county, thnt
during tho prevalence of a severe thunder shower,
on Sunday night, tbo 25th nit., nnd immediately
after a heavy peal of thunder, an immense number
ofptlScan* fell upon hi* plantation. Hundreds
were found upon the placo tho next morning, ar.d
five large ones were caught while the flock were
endeavoring to escape. Tbo wings of tho prison
ers were clipped and they placed iu Boyd's mill
pond, wore they mill remain.
Do in i. a s’ Policy for tub FuTntK.-Tho Wash-
ington correspondent of tiio N. Y. Herald says :
The discussion in tho Senate to-day on the Ore

D mglas lias no intention of joining tho republi
cans <>n nny other subject than the Kansas bill;—
and thiit mcirure having now been disposed of by

He will not, therefore, bs found acting with Walk

explicitly that no personal feelings shall interpose

Fiiance and England,—The Now York Even•

Person* of inteipg'nco nnd observation, just

on both sides of tbo channel, is growing more nnd
more unfriendly every day,—nnd that but little
else was talked of, besides tho chances of war bo

to have given uttcrunco to his mortification ami
