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 mences its session in this city on Wednesday even ing at eight o’clock. Tiie opening sermon will bt preached by the moderater Her. Dr. Samuel K. Talmage, in the lecture room of the Ist Presby terian Church. l-jf- The " Georgia Hussars ” from Savannah, are in Charleston as the guests of the Charleston Light Dragoons. Mr. Wright, Esq., a member of the New nan bar, and several youug gentlemen of Newnan, passed through Atlanta a few days ago, on their way to Kansas. 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 river. This new line would carry the northern boundary of Kansas about sixty miles into Ne braska. Z-sf~ Jasper McMillan has been convicted of the murder of Madison Kino, lie was tried at Barn well C. 11., and sentenced to be hung on the 25th July next. A man by the name of Weathkrsbee, says the Barnwell Sentinel, was severely stabbed on the 27th ult. £-s*” Gen. M. Roubles, the recently appointed Mexican Minister to this Government, is on his way to Washington. Advices had reached Panama, as we learn bv intelligence brought by the Illinois, that the In dians on the Atlantic coast of Veragua had at tacked Santiago de Alauje, a town of New Grana da, and had burnt it nearly down. 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 charged. A railroad from Vera Cruz to Mexico, 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 tions of men and munitions of war daily. 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 per pound.’’ 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 place of ropes, in baleing cotton. It is cheaper than ropes, more expeditious, and preserves the bale more securely. 'UW The first section of twenty-two miles of the Sacramento Valley railroad, inCalifornia, has been completed. S3F” A telegraph line from Tuscumbia to Hunts ville, Ala., will be ready by the 10th of April• Lenoir’s flour mills, in Tennessee, recently destroyed by fire, will soon be in operation again. IrSF” There are rumors of fillibustering expedi tions against Tehuantepec. The American Union says the Interior Bank at Griffin is not winding up it? business?. The Savannah Georgian is rather severe on Crisp’s dramatic corps, playing in that city. 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 no more passengers for Nicaragua, and take only those who have through tickets for California. Tn this state of things the Nicaraguan government has chartered a sailing vessel to take out emigrants who may desire to go. What an Abolitionist ! —The property of Cas sius M. Clat, the great Kentucky abolitionist, is advertised to be sold at auction, and include? twenty-two slaves, men, women, ami chiklren ! A Crumb op Cold Comfort.—Alfred Conklin, for more than twenty years United States Judge of Western New York, the warm personal and politi -al friend of Mr. Fillmore, and minister to Mexico mder that gentleman's administration, in a long letter of the 11th ult., declares he cannot support Mr. Fillmore. Death of a Relative of the President. —Mrs. Rachel Rowean, a cousin of President Pierce, md mother of Thomas Rowean, Esq., of Boston, lied on Monday evening, aged eighty-six years. 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 shortly between the two governments. The Clay Monument Association of New Orleans have fixed upon the 12th of April, the anniversary of the birth of Henry Clay, as the day of per forming the ceremony of laying the corner stone of the proposed monument. The market at Washington, it appears, as in New York, is being overstocked with Land War rants. The Star reports a further decline of four ;o five cents per acre. John D. Murrell, of Lynchburg, and said to be the richest man in Virginia, being worth $2,000,- 000, died at New Orleans a few days since. The jury in the Cox divorce case, at New York, have returned aVerdictfor the defendant, Mrs. Cox. The Wilkes Republican of Friday last, says : “Armstead P. Stokes, tried and convicted of murder, and to whom a new trial was granted by the Superior Court, when brought up for trial, (dead guilty of voluntary manslaughter, and was sentenced to the Penitentary for three years. 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.

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. Madame Anna Bishop is said to have taken up her residence in Australia, with a married daugh ter. On Friday, of last week, a shock of an earth qake was felt in Nelson, Amherst, and Albermale counties, Ya. 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. M’LANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manu ufactured by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa. All other Vermifuges, in comparison, are worth less.
