DAILY (ONSTITI TIO\ILIST
BY JAMES GARDNER.
TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 1.
Contract Advertisers
Must remember that five o’clock, P. M., every
day, is the latest hour for receiving their adi er-
Using favors, for publication the ensuing morning.
Proprietors of warehouses in this city and
Hamburg, will oblige us by having their stocks of
cotton counted early,to-day.
River News.
The river is in excellent boating order for the
heaviest draught steamers. The Talomicco and
Augusta are at the wharf unloading.
The Weather.
We ventured to indnlge in a complimentary no
tice of the pleasant weather, some few days ago,
but we are very reluctantly compelled to state that
there has been, since that time, a very decided
change. A few days ago, the wind got into a pet,
and acted in a very disorderly way, worrying the
pretty ladies, who were anxious to show their fash
ionable dresses, bothering the police, vexing the
Mayor, and giving extra employment to the young
gentlemen in the dry goods trade. After the
paroxysm of the wind had subsided, the rain set
iD, and quite a deluge of the commodity was pre
cipitated to the earth on Sunday and up to Mon
day noon. So far as Mr. Chapman’s pre-calcula
tions of the weather, or inferential synopsis of the
daily atmospheric changes are concerned, for this
locality, he was entirely mistaken.
The wind is as cold and chilly, at the present
writing, as if it had been dallying for an entire
season among the icy crags. The greater portion
of our peach and other fruit crop has been nipped
in the bud, and many precarious garden vegetables
which have been planted, and watched, and culti
vated with care, are lifeless. The cold ice-wind
has sounded the death-blast, and immature and
foeble vegetation, have yielded up their summer
hopes.
The season for the planters has now advanced to
a late period—but little corn has been planted—
and in many cases, the ground has not been in
condition for any purpose.
Kansas Meeting in Savannah.
There was a large and enthusiastic Kansas meet
ing in Savannah, on Saturday evening last. John
Boston", Esq., was called to the Chair, and Mr. B.
11. Bardie requested to act as Secretary.
The meeting was addressed by Hon. John A.
Jones, of Muscogee, Geo. A. Gordon, Esq., and
i)r. It. D. Arnold ; and resolutions adopted, af
firming the legal right of the extension of slavery;
and of the rights of the people of the South, alike
with the North, to carry their property to any of
the Territories of the Union—and the propriety of
encouraging Southern emigration to Kansas—that
associations should be formed to promote this pur
pose—that the meeting resolve itself into an Asso
ciation to be called the Chatham county Kansas
Association—that committees be appointed to raise
funds and dispose of them to advance the objects
of the Association.
The meeting adjourned to meet again on Weu
nesday evening next.
jgf* Another deputation from South Carolina
for Kansas passed through this city yesterday, to
join Major Buford.
We learn that another company is expected on
to-morrow.
The remark attributed to Lorenzo Dow,
that on the 27th March, 1856, there would be a
great flood throughout the land, is one of those re
markable prophecies of an extraordinary man tha
required only an abundance of water to fulfill it.
We understand Hopewell Presbytery com

Mr. White, of Kansas, addressed a large
meeting of the citizens of Columbus, on Friday
night last.
The timber and trees on the mountains,
surrounding Chattanooga, are on fire in several
places.
The small pox is prevailing at Chattanooga.
It was believed to be in LaGrange, Ga., but a med
ical gentleman in Columbus was sent for, and he
reported the cases to be simply the measles.
gSgT’ It is stated that efforts will be made to alter
the boundaries of Kansas, by including a portion
of Nebraska, and make the boundary the Platte

braska.
Z-sf~ Jasper McMillan has been convicted of the

l-$?" Among other matters before Congress last
week, in the Senate the Post Office Committee were
instructed to inquire into the expediency of abol
ishing the franking privilege and paying the post
age of members of Congress out of the public
funds. The Deficiency Appropriation bill was also
passed by the Senate.
The Mexican government has issued a de
cree which compels the pre-pavment of postages
of letters, hut fixes lower rates than heretofore

by the way of the plains of Apam and Puebla, is
under consideration.
Haro v Tamaris had a battle with Comonfort’s
forces at Puebla, in which Tamaris' forces suffered
considerable loss. The government forces had
been very successful, and were obtaining acquisi

Kansas investigating Committee are
about leaving Washington City, for Kansas, and
expect to reach Jefferson, in Missouri, about the
10th of April. There appears to be some difficulty
now in regard to the finances for the trip. An ap
propriation of SIO,OOO from the contingent fund
was voted for the expenses of the investigation,
but all the money belonging to the contingent fund
has been exhausted. But that trouble will be rem
edied in some way.
The Illinois brings news trull! the Sandwich
Islands that a lava stream is slowly but surelv wind
ing towards Hilo, a city situated on a bay by that
name, which, it is feared, must eventually be over
whelmed. This eruption is probably from the vol
canic peak, known as Mauna-Loa, which threw out
such immense masses of lava in 1852, and has not
yet ceased. Travellers represent the appearance of
the eruption at night as fearfully beautiful. The
lava was projected above the mouth of the crater
•bout five hundred feet, and the volcanic mountain
is gituated about ten thousand feet above the level
of the sea. However, that region is famous for its
volcanic eruption!.
: The Barnwell, South Carolina Sentinel, of
the 20th ult., gives the following as the rates of
prices in that locality: “In Barnwell, Bacon is
worth from 14 to 16; Butter 45 to 50; Corn 75 to
87%; Chickens $2.40 to $3.00 per dozen; eggs
12% to 15 cents; Flour, sl4 to sl6 per barrel;
Lard, 14 to 16 cents; Molasses 62 to 75; Sugar 12%
to 16 cents per lb., and last, though not least,
Candles, ( adamantine* very inferior article 50 cents

IW In the House, Congress, on Friday, the 28th
March, Mr. Lane of Oregon, called the attention of
the House to the horrible sufferings and the mur
der of the white settlers in Oregon and Washing
ton territories, by the twenty thousand Indian
warriors therein. No step of the Administration
has, thus far, been of service to restrain the savage
atrocities, and unless prompt action be taken, the
white settlements will be wiped out entirely. He
earnestly appealed for an appropriation of $300,000
to secure the services of friendly Indians to pur
sue and combat the foe, as in summer time regular
troops cannot penetrate their hiding places and
fastnesses. He introduced a bill for that purpose,
which was referred to the committee of ways and
means, who, it is understood, will take immediate
action upon it.
The Memphis Appeal states that at Mc-
Combs, press in that city, iron hoops is used in the

Opposition or Mars. —On the 2d of April, the
planet Mars, after an interval of more than twenty
five months, will again come into opposition to the
sun, and to its least distance trom the earth during
its present revolution. It therefore on that day
will rise in the East as the sun goes down in the
West, and even in the twilight may be recognised
by its brilliant red light. Indeed, for some time
past, it has been, after about eight, p. in., the most
conspicuous object iu the Southe-astern sky.
Nicaraguan Steamers. —The New Orleans Pic
ayune learns that the agent of the Transit Com
pany’s steamers there has received orders to take

A Crumb op Cold Comfort.—Alfred Conklin,

The Sydney (Australia) Herald, of December
ith, contains an account of a fearful fire and loss
if life which had taken place at Ballarat, which
u iginatedin the bar of the United States Hotel, and
spread with great rapidity to the adjoining houses.
The buildings burned were" the Criterion store,
Ydelphi theatre, Moody’s store, Adams & Co’s Ex
nress office, United States Hotel, Oak saloon, and
i number of small shops. Not less than ten burned
bodies were found in the ruins, though from what
■ause such a fearful loss of life was occasioned,
he accounts do not state. The only names men
tioned of persons burned are a Mr. Nichols, and
i miner named Bob Scarcroft. The loss is put
down at £50,000.
Fillmore, says the Louisville Democrat, is an
ill-used man by the late nomination. He is odious
to his party North—can’t get their support. On
the other hand, he is popular with his party South,
but the party itself is too unpopular in this region
to do him any good. So, between his own unpop
ularity North and his party’s unpopularity South,
fie will make a poor thing out'of it.
The Vienna correspondent of the London Times
says that an American commercial company is
about to be formed for the purpose of promoting
direct trade between America and Austria, and im
porting cotton and other products. He also inti
mates that a commercial treaty will be concluded

the Superior Court, when brought up for trial,

l-cf~ Col. John W. Forney has withdrawn from
iiis connection with the Washington Union. In
his closing address he says:
“I retire from mv connection with the Washing
ton Union with a deep sense of the importance of
the step I have deemed it necessary to take. My
associate, Judge Nicholson, is my personal and po
litical friend, and 1 cannot forbear this testimony
to his high qualities as a Democrat and a gentle
man. I have generally shared his feelings, and
have always reciprocated his friendship. 1 com
mend him most heartily to those who care to listen
to my suggestions.
Whomsoever may be nominated as the candidate
fur President, in 1856, by the National Democratic
Convention, whether the present eminent Chief
Magistrate or the man who is the choice of my
own State and of myself, or any other Democrat, I
shall be found supporting him with all my heart
and with all my energies.
The Galveston (Texas ) Confederate, of the 21st.
ult., says:
From all accounts the roads between the gulf
coast and Indiauola must be in the most terrible
condition. Owing to this, the article of flour, it is
said, is worth $25 per barrel in San Antonio, and
at some places it cannot be obtained at all. We
see it mentioned that a government train was
twelve davs going from Victoria to Goliad.
A very important suit between the title to Pow
der Horn and Indianola, wherein “Alfred Burnley
and others” are plaintiffs, and “Wm. C. Cook and
oihers” are defendants, has just been decided in
the Federal Court now in session in this city. The
jury rendered a verdict iu favor of the plaintiff’s
title, and assessed the damages at one cent.
Contradiction. The United Service Gazette,

land of regiments from service in the Crimea

ation of regiments to Canada, and also that no
orders have been given to the brigade of Guards
to «end any more drafts to the East.”

Henry Clay on Catholicism.
The following letter from Kentucky’s—Ameri
ca’s eloquentson, was addressed to Gardner Jones,
President of the University of Notre Dame du Lac,
near South Bend, Indiana :
Washington, March 23, 1850.
Dear Sir : I have received and attentively pe
rused the letter which, at the instance of the Pres
dent and faculty of the University of the Notre
Dame du Lac, you addressed to me the 4th inst. In
that letter they hare done me the honor to express
their approbation of a speech of mine in the Sen
ate of the United States, the object of which was
to heal all differences, and amicably to adjust all
controversies arising out of the existence of sla
very in the United States. Such testimony proceed
ing from a highly respectable body of gentlemen,
retired from the world, and regarding justly the
interests which belong to another and future state
of existence as paramount to all others, affords me
an inexpressible degree of satisfaction.
Nor is this at all diminished bv'the fact, that we
happen to profess different religio’us creeds; for 1
have never believed that that of “the Catholics was
anti-American and hostile to civil liberty.” On
the contrary, I have with great pleasure, and with
sincere conviction, on several public occasions,
borne testimony to my perfect persuation that
Caiholics were as much devoted to civil liberty,
and as much animated by patriotism, as those who
belong to the Protestant creed.
1 am not surprised that, in the seclusion of those
whom you represent, great solicitude should be
felt for the safety and preservation of that Union
which is our surest guarantee of peace, order, lib
erty, and public happiness. I hope and believe
that dangers which appeared to threaten it have
diminished; but there is still great occasion for
the exercise of a spirit of concord, mutual conces
sion, and harmony.
I request you to present to the President and
faculty assurances of my respectful acknowledg
ments, and accept yourself those of your respect
ful and obedient servant, H. Clay.

Worms I Worms ! —A great many learn
ed treatises have been written, explaining the
origin of, and classifying the worms generated in
the human system. Scarcely any topic of medical
science has elicited more acute observation and
profound research; and yet physicians are very
much divided in opinion on the subject. It must
be admitted, however, that, after all, a mode of ex
pelling these worms, and purifying the body from
their presence, is of more value than the wisest
disquisitions as to the origin. The expelling agent
has at length been found— Dr. M'Lane's Vermi
fuge, prepared by Fleming Bros., is the much
sought after specific, and has already superseded
all worm medicines, its efficacy being universally
acknowledged by medical practitioners.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR.
