A third and inal meeting was appointed for yesterday, the 19th, From ITnh.—The latest dates represent the Mormons as in very hostile mood, and the U. Stat troops at Camp Scott not only very willing to grati fy a taste for actual hostilities, but in the opinion of heir Commander, Col Johnson, quite able to cop- with any force the Mormons were likely to brinV •gainst them. It is stated, however, that orders fron •ur government to Col. Johnson, passed through St Louis more than two weeks ago, not to commentti -ffensive operations against the Mormons antil the imval of the peace commission from United -Hates, and the trial through them of tho gentlei netbods of persuasion and argument. A long ad Iress to the President containing a statement of grie vances which was sdopted at a public meeting held in Great Salt Lake City the 16th January last, has just been received and is published in the Northern papers. H >» abusive and impudent. Eight hundred and forty discontented Mormons had been dismissed from Utah and were on the way to California under passports from Brigham Young rhe California papers say they have positive infor nation that a good deal of division and want exist in Salt Lake City, and affairs with tho Mormons gener- illy are at low ebb, notwithstanding Yonng’s threats and brsggadocia. The Florida.—In going down the river last S». tnrday, the steamship Florida met with about the first accident which has over happened to that gal taut craft. She broke her piston rod, and will have to lio over at Savannah until she can procure a new one from Now York. The Alabama took her place, end left Sunday evening at eight o'clock. May no worse accident ever happen to the good ship, and none is likely to happen if the vigilant care and tho rough seamanship of Isaac Crowell, her command er, can prevent it A better sailor never stood on deck—a more gentlemanly, kind hearted, attentive commander was never entrusted with the safety and comfort of sea-going travellers.

Our community has lost another valuable citizen in Dr. Tnos. R. Lamar, who died last Tuesday, af ter an illness of some weeks. Dr. Lamab, though perhaps naturally a man of impulsive and ardent temperament, was of a singularly quiet, unobtrusive and engaging demeanor, and carried with him the unmistakable impress of self culture and discipline. His life sped evenly on in the diligent discharge of every social duty, and his benevolent face bore the same genial smile, as he greeted us in the round of daily duties. He was one of the highest style of men, and a successful man if success be measured by the true ends of living. We shall miss him.— Everybody regrets that Dr. Lamar is gone ; but for liim—who can doubt that he reaps the reward of a well spent life ? Arrival of ilic Steamer Africa. New Yonx, April 16.—The British and North A- merican Royal Mail Steamship Africa, C&pt. N. Shannon has arrived, with Liverpool dates to 3rd April. Commercial Intelligence.

It will be i purely historical work, l nsed upon and derived from documents iu archives at Washington, known to but few, but to which Mr. Giddiugs’s position on Com mittee* of Congress during a long series of years, has given him fullestsaecess. IVrw C’nundiun Coinage.—Canada has just adopted a Decimal Currency. The new coins have been prepared at the English mint, and the fiiet con- sigument Is daily expected to arrive. The silver coinage consists of five, ten and twenty cent pieces. Cents have also been struck. As yet no quarters have been coined ; but the convenience attending their use will soon add them to thelist. This change will be an accommodation, not oolj iu Canaria, but also In our frontier States, between whose inhabi tants and the Canadians a large and increasing busi ness intercourse exists. The Dlornion*—The Mormons claim to have 480,U00 members of their Church scattered over the world. They have qj missionaries in Europe, and an equal number in Africa, Asia and the Pacific Isl and*. They have one newspaper in Salt Lake City, loaning 4.000 copies weekly ; one in Liverpool, issu ing 82,000 weekly t one in Swansey. South Wales ; one in Copenhagen, iu the Danish language; one in Australia ; one in India; one in Switzerland, in the French language. The “Bookof Mormon’’ has been translated and published in the Welch, Danish, French, German and Italian languages. Inuudnliou* from the JIia*i*aippi.—By la test accounts the breathes in the levee of the Mis sissippi river were still increasing in number and site and producing disastrous results. The latest despatch from New Orleans says: “The Mississippi river is committing a aeries of ravages and sad de vastations, that cannot be remedied this year. The breakages of levees continue in various directions. The cars on the Opelousas railroad are stopped by the crevasse on Bell's plantation. Great overflows ore threatened in every direction. The crevasse opposite New Orleans still continues to enlarge. There is also a large rise coming down tho river.'* Yellow Fever ni itio !Ycw York Quaran tine.—D< spa tehee from New York on Saturday an m-un-oth- mi'al of tbo Steam Frigate Susquehmn nab, from Gri-wuwn, where the Yellow Fever broke out on bosrd, to ii - number of 155 cases.

Congress on Saturday.—In the Senate, the Pacific Railway bill w s laid over to next session.— The Kansas Conference Committee had held two The decline reported by the Africa, by a compare son with the above, is l-8d. on Middling Orleans 1-td. on Middling Mobiles; 1 6d. on Fair Uplands and l-4d. on Middling Uplands.] State of Trade—Business in the manufacturing districts continued unfavorable. London Money Market.—No change is reported in monetary matters. General Sews. The —5,000,000 India loan had been taken at an avernge of 93. The political news generally by this arrival is un important. The Work Goes On. We stated last week that the Pensacola &. Georgia Railroad had been put under contract from the Apalachicola river to its Western terminus; the contractors obligating themselves to furnish the iron, build and equip the road and put it in running order. The parties agree ing to do the work, we understand are experi enced contractors, and gentlemen of means and character—thusgiving reasonable assurance of a faithful performance of their contract, and an early completion of this important part of the road: Since then, we are authorized to say, that the contract for the remainder of the road from the Scwannjee to Alligator-including the bridge across the river, and a mile of the read on this, side, has been let to experienced Georgia con tractors, who have associated with them seve ral enterprising Floridians, gentlemen who have been heretofore engaged in grading the road, and laying the iron between Tallahassee and Monticeilo. This work according to con tract is to be completed by the first of Janita ry, I860. This is a most important part of the road, and wc think the contract has fallen into the right hands—Messrs. Gilmer nnd Burcha eli, who have just finished a large contract on the South-West Railroad of Georgia, have just left here with the contract executed, and in ten days expect to have fifty hands at work. The Pensacola & Georgia road with the ex ception of a few miles, is now under contract from Tallahassee to Alligator—in fact, we may say all the way to Jacksonville; the whole of the Atlantic and Gulf Central road being tin der contract, the grading to be finished by first June. This is very encouraging to the early friends of the enterprise, and it is to be hoped that all opposition to the road will cease, and that everybody will put his shoulder to the wheel, and help to push the work along to a speedy and suctessful completion. I be only part of the whole road from Jacksonville to Pensacola.thatisnotnow under contract is that portion lying between Tallahassee and the Apalachicola river.—Tallahassee Sentinel, Our Convicts. Quite a large number of our citizens turned out last Monday evening to witness the depar ture for the Penitentiary of the criminals convic ted of felony at the late term of the Superior Court. The officer despatched for them from the penitentiary had gone down to Clinch and Lee, and brought with him the representatives of those counties. These two, added to the three from this, made the number five. Three out of the five seemed to be in fiue spirits, or rath er exhibited a total reeklessness of all conse quences. The two others seemed greatly mor tified and dejected. Can confinement in the peniteutiary for a term of years, benefit either the criminal or the country ? Wefcarnot. The number of convicts is daily increasing. The State prison will soon be overrun. What is to be done with the criminals ? Whilst we are not willing without further trial to abandon tho present system, wo must confess we are los ing confidence in its efficiency.—<S. IV. News. Ece County. Judge Allen, held coart for one week only in Starkvilie, commencing Monday the 5th inst. We did not get there till Friday- There was but little done besides establishing papers de stroyed by the fire. The question of a removal of the Court Ho use will again be agitated. Two places are named as suitable locations for the county site, Adams and Wooten’s. Either place would bo much more convenient to those having business at the Court House, from other counties. But the people of Lee should consult their conven ience first, that of otbors afterwards.—S. IV. News. A Crevasse at New Orleans.—On the liihsays icaynne, the river broke through the levee at John . Bell's plantation, opposite to Jefferson City, and though immediate attempts were made to close it, they proved wholly unsuccessful. Before night the breach was widened to at least, I05U feet, and every hour tended still to increaso its width. Through this wide opening a flood of at leaat twelve feet in depth rushed liko a young Niagara, presenting at the same time a grand and fearful spectacle. The whole plan tation is converted into a vast lake, which is con stantly enlarging its borders. and will, in the coarse of a few days, render boat navigation necessary in the streets of Gretna, McDonougliville anil Algiers The destruction of property resulting from the crevasso will prove immense. Tlte Firemen's Parade and Contest. YOUNG AMERICA TRIUMPHANT. Thursday was a beautiful day for the Semi-An nual Parade—clear, bright, cool; and the Depart ment turned out in full strength and numbers.— There most have been upwards of 200 in the four Companies, and such a number of scarlet jackets and burnished caps, to say nothing of the fine look ing men inside of and underneath them,—with all the “mersheens” in line, polished up to a despera tion of brilliancy, the streaming banners, and so on, made a handsome display. At least, all the ladies thought so, for Mulberry street was lined with them, and it was a very* beautiful and attractive lining at that. Windows, balconies and sidewalks were thronged with the fair, and the coarser half of creation crowded the street. After a review and march through Walnut street, the trial of strength and efficiency commenced.— Each Company was allowed fifteen minutes’ time after getting into order for playing, and the stream was to be drawn from a Cistern and projected, horizontally through a hundred feet of hose. The contest for prizes between the three En gine Companies took place under the general su perintendence of Chief Engineer Geo. S. Obear, Assistant Engineer H. II. North, and of the fol lowing Judges appointed from the Hook & Ladder Company: Foreman A. G. Brrrs, Messrs. George W. Price, E. Kirtlaxd, Jas. Campbell, and — McCallie. Ocmulgee No. 2, lead off: Foreman H. N. Ells. Engine 2d Class, built by J. M. Smith, New York. 8 inch cylinders and Sinchstrokc. Disuncemadc, 15-1 feet 5 inches. Young America No. 3, followed, and great in terest was felt for the boys. Every one even in tiie Fire Department wished them to succeed, and they did! Their Engine was purchased a few months ago, and is, of course, a pet with them. It is a 3d Class Machine, built by John H. Sickles, New York, 1 inch cylinder, and 9 inch stroke.— Foreman of the Company, J. D. Vanvalkesbcrg. Distance made, 172 feet and 5 inches, when their stream overleaped No. 2’s and the peg was re moved, you may depend upon it there was a shout! Now came the last remaining contestant—Protec tion No. 1, the victor in the previous contest, with laurels to preserve, as well as acquire, and a hard task before them. Foreman, F. S. Bloom. Engine 2d Class, built by James Smith, New York, 8 inch cylinder and stroke. Young America held their breath as the breaks flew up and down with the power of forty muscular men. The stream came snapping and sputtering—it crept along foot by foot—till it stoppedjust short of Young Ameri ca’s mark—1C9 feet 9 inches. A second trial and it fell largely short—a third still worse, and it was subsequently found that a bad fracture had occur red in one of the air chambers of thcEngine. But for this it is possible tho fate of the day might have been changed—at least No. I thinks so, but no one begrudges Young America her well earned laurels. It will be seen there is really little or no difference iu the power of the machines; and we arc confident that No. 2, with another trial, would have dimin ished what the figures now show. They are all fair Engines, and the Companies are not to be sur passed anywhere. The Fire Department of Mason we believe to be almost unrivalled in efficiency by any place of its size in the United States. The Hook k Ladder has a new and beautiful Carriage which carries its heavy load with great ease, had been beautifully decorated with flowers for the occasion, and the Company made a fine appearance. We have often had occasion to speak of the effi ciency of this Company at fires. The character of a large proportion of our buildings affords it great scope lor usefulness, and it is never found lagging. After the excitement of thej trial had subsided, the companies were called together, and the trump ets awarded by the Chief Engineer, in a speech substantially as follows: Foremen Vanvalkcnbnrg, Bloom and Ells: Gentlemen.—Before presenting you with the Prizes awarded for the trial of your Engines this afternoon, we are prompted to express to you our admiration for the display which the Department has made, as well as for the general and uniform good appearance of its members. We now present each of you tho Trumpet awarded to your Companies through us by those who have appreciated your services in times past, fully be lieving that whilst you occupy the positions in the Department which you hold, it will be necessa ry for your voices to be hoard through them only in tones of moderation to incite your men to duty. Foreman Betts.—From the character of the ap paratus under your command you webe deprived of taking part in the contention just ended. Oc- cupying so important a part of the Department as your Company does, we have upon this, as well as all other occasions, fully appreciated their services. As a small token of that appreciation wc present you with this Trumpet, knowing that your men have but to bear the word to obey. The Chief Engineer also read the following com munication from the Superintendents of the Rail Road Companies, which will be perused with plea sure as a gratifying testimonial to the efficiency of the Department: MACON, April 15th, 1858. Geo. S. Obeab, Esq., Chief Engineer Macon Fire Department, Macon, Oa.: Sib.—On behalf of the Companies we represent, and in their name, we ask your acceptance of the enclosed Check for $100, tendered to your Depart ment as a compliment for their prompt response to our call for assistance ou tho evening of February 19th, 1858, when the Depot buildings ol the South- Western and Macon k Western Rail Roads were in imminent danger of being burned by tho burning of a Car of Cotton on the Track between the Shops of the two Companies. Please convey to your members onr thanks for their services, and high appreciation of their labors on that occaaion. Our best wishes for the continued prosperity of your Department, collectively and individually, will ever remain yours. Very respectfully, Geo. W. Adams, Sup’t! S. W. R. R. Emerson Foote, Sup’t C. R. R. Alfred L. Tyler, Sup’t. M. k W. R. R. The Department then fell into line and marched homeward through Cotton Avenue. At the En gine Rouses of Nos. 1 and 2 they closed with three ! cheers for the Chief and Assistant Engineers—and parted in the best of fellowship with complimenta ry cheers for each other. The whole passed off in tiie best of feeling—the spirited rivalry necessari ly and properly existing between the different corps never passing beyond the line of good nature and politeness. Success aud many more such pleasant days to the Macon Fire Department. “.O, Cull me Flowers.’ Last week we commenced in a head strong fash ion on a julep! but this week we are etherialized, sublimated, rejuvenated and rising upward, wafted on the perfume of a “thousand flowers,”—spiritu alized, blest and “balmy,” not with vulgar red eye and Cognac, but with Heaven’s own incense fresh from Beauty’s bower. Enter one of Afric’s sable | From the Savannah Georgian (Dem.) April 13 To Messrs. Howell Cobb, Robert Toombs and Alex. II. Stephens A suspicion has existed in the public mind at the South, that a fraudand imposition has been practicea upon the country by Gen. Calhoun, of Kansas, in first declaring the election in favor of the pro-slavery party, and subsequently, at a very critical juncture in political affairs, reversing this decision. Senator Iverson, in the course of a speech delivered in the U. S. Senate, declared that Calhoun wa3 induced to make this last decision by Southern.men.and though the charge is a grievous one, lie failed to name the parties alluded to. This suspicion has grown almost into It positive conviction. All of you, together with Air. Thompson, of Mississippi, are charged wilh be ing the parties guilty of this transaction. The following is tho charge—together with tho au thority upon which it is made. The Washington correspondent of the South Car olinian makes the following charge: _ “ It is said that Calhoun was urged in tho strongest possible manner, to make the decision he has made, sons with a tray of flowery trophies—the Rose in r —. „„„ h« ..d fag™, naernu, L?r;5’.S°SSta; —the modest Violet—the gorgeous Lilly—the | their names—doubtless it will come out as a part of flelicate Fringe, and what else is lacking? all blend ed with the lively evergreen in one ravishing and delectable effect. All this darkey tells us is a pre sent from Miss Mary F ***** *» to us, a benedict, who bid good bye to life’s spring some years ago. Think of that, young gentlemen, and weep. Miss j Mary—our. most reverent and respectful devotion to you! Advertisements and so on. For pity’s sake, Messrs. Bostick k Kein, don’t go on at sichan agonizingratc! The public know very well that you are “old hands” at buying] goods (old—not Kean ; he poor fellow, is single,), and that you bewitch the ladies into all sorts of ex travagance with your delicate frippery and gew gaws. This you must answer for to a “ discerning public.” Can you do it? We fear not. So reads the history of the times.” Tho Montgomery (Ala.) Mail plainly intimates that the individuals referred to by the correspondent of the South Carolinian, are Mr. Cobb, Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Thompson:. Secretary of the Inte rior, and Messrs. Toombs and Stephens. We had information to the same effect, butnot being author ized to use name*, we forbea# laying it before the public.” the extract is taken from an editorial in the Charleston Mereary," and is substantiated by that journal, which is considered reliable nnd well in formed upon political subjects. All of you aro Southern men, and have been ele vated to your positions by constituencies who be lieved they were electing men who would faithfully and fearlessly guard the great interests confided to their keeping. One of you aro a member of the Cabinet, and responsible in part for tho honesty and good faith of the administration in carrying out that policy laid down before and after its inauguration.— Another is a Senator from Georgia, representing a S.ate w hose people are pledged to resist any attempt upon the part of the Government to deprive them of their rights and privileges. The last is the represen tative of a District whose people do not differ in Our second warning and admonition. Quit your fashionable follies. Buy spinning wheels (“ Georgy I opinion from tneir brethren throughout the State.— • ii ,i. n i • r , \ LniHtno-1 kou are all democrats, and stand pledged before the planners” they call em down in Florida,) knitting | oountry tosup „ ort atld maintain the doctrines and yarn, Turkey red and sich like—and don’t stand in the attitude of puhlic tempters. And there is a gentleman named Peon, Daguer- eotypist, keeps a gallery and takes life-like pictures, He sends for us on publication day to come over and see him —has something pretty and wonderful to show, no doubt. The man is mad—literally mad. Wc leave our den any how but about half a dozen times a year, and did he think to get us out of it to-day! O pshaw! Mr. Peon your pictures are very fine: Mr. Mantellini would no doubt call them “ demuition foin,” but it is a remarkable cir cumstance for the Editor of the Telegraph to call ou anybody—truly remarkable. On publication day in would be miraculous. Moreover, there is Stone, who sells hats. Mr. Stone is i gentleman of taste, with an eye to the becoming and beautiful—guilty in kind but not de gree with Messrs. Bostick k Kean, but as he only tempts the men into extravagance, we will say nothing about it. Stone has been collecting baits for the unwary for some time, and has got together a tempting collection. •Messrs. Campbell & Sons offer a great corrective and cement in large quantities, and so we will quit jests which ought not to be stale with such a good quick lime substratum. Skagg’s Patent Tire Tightener. This is a Southern patent, obtained by N. J. Skaggs, of Talladega, Alabama, only last November, and it is manifestly one of those I guised joy by so called American newspapers side country to support principles of the Democratic Party. You will readily perceive the interest that the people of Georgia must feel in knowing tho correct ness or falsity of the charge laid to youi accounts— and will we trust as readily appreciate the impor tance upon yoar parts to meet it with a denial or an admission. We express no opinion as to its probable truth or error, for we are in possession of no further evidence than that lurnishcd in this article,.- ndsuch a course upon our part would fail to satisfy tbo pub lic mind. These are troublesome times to Georgia,_ to the South, and to the Democratic party, whose existence depends upon upon its ability to execute its pledges to the country. It is meet that tho South should know her freinds, and how far they may be relied upon in this emergency. We, therefore, in tho name and behalf of the people of Georgia and of the Demo cracy of the State, call upon each and all of you to answer the charges preferred against you. We do not include Mr. Thompson in this case, for the rea son that we imagine the people of Mississippi will de mand of him an explanation of the fact that his name is not connected with yours in the charge. We clip the foregoing, from one of our Georgia "American Exchanges,” (which publishes it in an ec- stacy of delight,) merely to express our hearty and unmitigated disgust witli it—from the begiuniug to the ending—from the first to the last! No pub lic man should be held exempt from just c riticism or merited censure, and the Telegraph will be among the last to pin an implicit faith to any man or set of men. But when it comes to impeaching the fidelity to their own section of such men as Toombs, Stephens, Cobb, &c., on the authority of anonymous newspaper squibs—when we find such a democratic impeachment paraded with undis useful contrivances demanded in the every day life of almost every man. The effect of alter nate dry and wet weather upon carriage and wagon wheels is always a serious annoyance to every body who has occasion to own and use vehicles of any description. In drought be finds his carriage tires loose and rattling, much to his annoyance, and there is great dan ger of permanently injuring the wheels if he suffers the blacksmith to tighten the tires to the full measure of dry weather shrinkage of the wood work. Now here is an arrangement, which, at inconsiderable expense, removes all difficulty—enables him to loosen or tighten, his tires in a moment to suit the condition of the wheels in any stage of weather, and in that way to add to their durability and safety many fold more than the contrivance can possibly cost him. It is a short right and lef^ thread screw—with a sqaurc turned by an ordinary screw wrench, and propelling this screw on either end through the heads or ends of the tire which are turned up and abutt against the opposite ends of the felly. Nothing could be more simple and complete. Mr. Skaggs brother of the Patentee, is now in Macon for the purpose of introducing this patent, a mat ter about which there certainly can be no dif ficulty, because it is such a manifest and gen eral convenience and necessity. Tlic New Kansas Constitution. Mr. “Jim Lane” studied the fitness of things when he made the last Kansas Constitution. Free negroes are entitled to vote; and who shall say that Lane and his Kansas crowd have no right to choose their own associates, and are not well fitted for just such affiliation! It suits their tastes and habits to a nicety, so far as wc can understand them at this distance. Wc may congratulate Messrs. Critten den, Bell, Wise and their Southern colleagues upon the fact that in killing Lccompton, they arc indi rectly championizing such “popular sovereignty 1 os this, and advancing the cause of “negro suffrage.’ 1 Let Gov. Wise hunt up his “cbo skin and gizzard foot” letter at once! Nctv York Colton Market. From the Evening Post of Saturday, we have the following: 1 The cotton market has shown increased activity during the week, and for the past two days a considerable business has been done at hardening prices. The firmness of the south ern markets, in face of the penny sterling de cline in Liverpool, strengthened holders here, and as the demand increased, higher rates were paid for the more desirable parcels, of which there are now but few offering. The falling off in receipts at tbo gulf ports, has also had a stimulating influence upon operators in the staple, and it is now generally felt that little advantage will be gained by waiting longer. “ All anxiety about the ultimate extent of the crop is wearing away, since it is seen that, whether it may prove 2,900,000, or 3,000,000 bales, the result, as far as prices are concern ed, will vary little, as there is no prospect of any surplus remaining, or of stocks becoming too heavy for factors to hold. The prospect of next year’s crop, we believe, will exercise a greater influence upon the latterportion of the present one, than anything else at present ap parent. Should the next two or three months dcvelopc a favorable prospect, or otherwise for next year’s yield, the value of the staple will doubtless be influenced in a corresponding ra tio. Our domestic spinners are recovering from last year’s disasters more rapidly than had been anticipated, and will probably be active com petitors for the remaining portion of the crop. They arc buying pretty freely, and will have to do so to keep the mills running, as they have laid in no supply beyond their immediate wants.” by side with glorifications of Crittenden and Bell! it is a little too much, and we feel like starting a hiss. If the time ever comes when such men js these- identified iu every way and by the strongest possi ble ties with the South, may not be trusted—must be watched and dogged about on such slight occa sions—held to answer on evidence carefully cumu lated by patching extracts from anonymous penny a-liners, and so pelted with doubts, questions, and suspicions by their own political friends;—if char acter and reputation acquired by years of patriotic and consistent public service, is to be clouded by such a breath—why, character is worth nothin, nobody can be trusted and we might as well go into liquidation and bankruptcy at once. For our part, until we see good reason to the contrary, wc shall commit the business of assail ing and wounding our own political household entirely to the enemy, whatever disposition others may show to exercise such striking marks of a In fection upon friends. It was only a few weeks ago, that there was a similar assault on the evidence of the correspondent of the Picayune, aud but just now one portion of tho Democratic press have fin ished rubbing out the black marks against Col. Ward, which had been set down by the other. It is a poor, silly and thankless business, be it ever so well fol lowed. Zounds, isn’t it refreshing to see Stephens, Cobl) and Toombs called on to let the South know whether they are her friends or not!!! We hope the gentlemen so solemnly arraigned on such slight authority, will not condescend a re ply. The people of Georgia -will clear Messrs. Toombs, Stephens and Cobb, of the charge of treason to the interests of Georgia, on the .faith of their public record and without the certificates of tlie Montgomery Mail and those important gentle men, the newspaper correspondents. As for the attempt to involve Senator Iverson, as authority for such a charge, that we conceive is sufficiently exploded in the following significant paragraph from the Times & Sentinel. A Telling; Speech. We have read with unusual interest and de light Senator Toombs great speech in demo lition of Mr. Douglas, delivered somewhat long ago, (March 22d,) but in all the hurry and gen eral disarrangement of moving it was only last week that we sat down to look it over.— It is the first congressional speech we have no ticed, wherein the tortuous, contradictory and necessarily hypocritical course of the free soil- ers lias met with what we conceive to be a merited exposure and castigation. What was due to the scamps who set up all that outrage ous clamor about the Kansas Nebraska bill as a base violation of faith—a breach of solemn covenant on the part of the South, after an un flinching, unanimous, remorseless attempt, of ten repeated and running through four years, to abrogate that covenant by the Wilmot Pro viso ? What is now due to those who, while shrieking “and groaning over the attempt to “ cram the Lecompton pro-slavery Constitu tion down tlie throat of Kansas,” then proposed to “cram” anti-slavery down the throats of all the Territories, and now declare that not anoth er Slaveholding State shall be admitted into the Union! They are destitute of political principle. They arc ready to set up any doc trine or any plea to advance their own intense and fanatical sectionalism. Mr. Toombs lash ed them till they writhed, but not one blow fell amiss. Wade, of Ohio, confessed as much. We quote a paragraph; If you would put it on the ground that your objection is not to the cramming process, but to that which is to be crammed down, it would be well enough. The Wilmot-proviso man holds that you can prohibit slavery forev er in the Territories. That means that you can cram freedom whether the people want it or not, but take care how you cram slavery Mr. Wade—That is it. Mr. Toombs—That is it, says my friend from Ohio, who is always honest and out-spo ken, and straightforward, and I wish to God the rest of you would imitate him. He speaks out like a man. He says that i3 the difference, and it is. He means what he says. He and I can agree about everj’thing on earth until we get to our sable population, I do believe.” The fluttering of the pigeons told well for Mr. Toombs’ markmanship. Mr Stuart, of Michigan, as spokesmen for the wounded, read him a lecture on good manners, applicable to no terms or language used by Mr. T., which he could have spared and made a clean breast of the matter. It is an argument which should go before the country. The Kansas Biii. The failure in the House, last Wednesday, of Montgomery’s motion to insist on the House substitute to the Senate Kansas bill and the appointment of a Committee of Conference have considerably revived the hopes of the friends of the administration. The motion to insist failed by a lie, and the motion for a con ference was carried by one majority—the Speaker voting in both cases. The Confer ence Committee, it will elsewhere be seen, have been able to accomplish nothing as yet. They were to hold a final session to-day (Monday.) The failure to insist and the motion to confer were regarded in the House as a signal defeat of the anti-Lecompton forces, and there is a manifest disposition to give way in the Northern democratic opposition to the Lecompton bill. But the fruitful source of all mischief is the Southern opposition to the bill. If Kansas cotnes in with Lane’s free negro Constitution, it will be justly attributable to that opposition alone.

Cobb, Toombs and Stephens advised Mr. Calhoun, the President of tlie Lecompton Convention, to throw out the Delaware Crossing precinct returns, thereby giving the free- soilers the State of Kansas. We have not alluded to this heretofore, because we thought it mere idle gos sip,nml had too much faith in the integrity aud bones ty of these men to bolieve, that they would counsel or advise Mr. Calhoun to pursuo a'ny such course We feel called upon now to say, from the general character of the rumor, that we have reliable infor mation that it is not true, and they had nothing to do with Mr. Calhoun’s giving his award. Let this suf fice. Flood in the Mississippi.—At Lewis> Swamp below Fair’s Point, the levee has been cut by rafts men, for the purpose of- abling them the more easi ly to get out timber, and .he consequence is damage to the levee to the extent of $30,000 or 40,< 00. The levee has given way near Col Trotter’s plan tation, in Tunica county, and the river is sweeping through the coutry, passing through Phillips Bayou, and Moon Lake into Yazoo Puss. The extent of the inundation is very wide—the destruction of property vast, and the damage to the levee very heavy. The following illustration is given of the wit of Mirza Mohammed Ibrahim, the Orien tal scholar, who filled for fifteen years the chair of Persian at Ilaileybury: “ Dining one day with a gentleman well known for his con- iviality, the decanters halted so long before the Mirza that the host exclaimed with a little impatience, * Pass the bottle, Mirza—what do you call in Persian the man that stops the ine V— 4 We call him Mohammed,’ said the Mirza, with a quiet smile.” Following a Shark.—Some time ago, a gentle man and one of his servants, a stalwart negro, went fishing for rock on the Bay shore about ten miles t the city. They cast their hooks and lines, and waited for a bito. The big darky after wading out some feet from the shore, tied the line around his body. His master told him there was danger in do ing so ; but the sable fisherman suspected no difficul ' y or accident. Soon an old shark, a rent old sea os, came along and swallowed the bait with a good relish, snd Sambo held the line with a firm grasp.— The powerful fish, however, drew him gradually out in deep water, when finding hd was in danger of be ing carried out to *ea, iu order to cut the lice, he made a desperate grasp at his knife, which was fas tened to his head half shut, a portion of bis hair be tween tho blade and the handle; but it was too late The hungry monster of the deep, by a rapid move ment, slackened the lino and dashed furiously out from the shore, followed by the darky, who alter nately disappeared beneath the waves and rose to the surface, grabbling at his kuife as he rushed on with almost lightning speed in the wake of the shark. He was seen at the distance of nearly a mile, as he occasionally rose to tho surface ; but soon disap peared entirely far beyond the reach of assistance, aud a victim to his own hazardous daring and i n prudent temerity.—Norfolk Argus. A Charitable Row. The Charity Fete at tbo Crystal Palace on Thursday night ended with a scene of enpar- alleled confusion. In consequence of the de fective arrangements of the ladies’ and gentle men’s dressing rooms, the effort to recover the outer wrappings, confided by the visitors to the care of the attendants, resulted in a gen eral melee. One gentleman, attempting to enter the ladies’ room in search of his wife, was expelled from the building by the police, and the uproar occasioned by this incident caused a tremendous panic among the ladies, some three hundred of whom finally retired after abandon ing the hopeless effort to recover their goods. Profiting by the general confusion which pre vailed, the pickpockets became very active, and at 3£ o’clock a stabbing affray took place; the hand of the assailant, however, being ar rested in time to prevent more serious damage than the ruin of a coat and waistcoat by the point of the weapon. Many persons remained in the building until G o’clock yesterday mor ning, seeking the recovery of their property. The missing goods have been assorted, and ar ranged on shelves for identification.—jY. Y. Evening Post.

From tho London Times, March 26. Tiie Atlantic Telegraph. The operation of stowing the wire for a sec ond effort commenced on Friday last, 19tb, on board her Majesty’s ship Agamemnon, in Key- ham basin. An extra place for deposite has been constructed on her upper deck, abaft her foremost, capable of taking 215 miles each flake or layer. Here about 140 miles were deposited up to yesterday, Thursday evening, at an average of 27 miles a day. It will con tain together 260 miles, which forms the first portion to be laid. The place of deposite last year, in the hold, made the coil oval in one direction, close to the kelson, and oval in the opposite direction above. A different arrange ment prevails now; two additional bulkheads have been knocked away, and the hold pre sents tlie appearance of a basin perfectly *cir- cular in every part. The cone in the centre is 12 feet 3 inches high, and lias a diameter of 10 feet at the base and 5 at the top; it will be encircled by 1,050 miles of cable. The re maining 150 miles are to be coiled on the orlop deck, where the heavy shore end was placed last year. A new guard has been fitted for the Agamemnon’s stern, to prevent the cable from fouling the propeller. The cage previ ously used was weakened by its proximity to the copper on the ship’s bottom, which served as a negative to the iron. The galvanic action of salt water on it during the last eight months has rendered it desirable to provide a new one, which will not touch the surface until the load line is reached. On board the Niagara the boats forward on the upper deck are to be re moved, and a space prepared of 33 feet diam eter, equal to the reception of from 170 to 180 miles ot cable. For the approaching trial the Atlantic Tel egraph Company appear to have made very complete arrangements, through their engineer in-chief, Mr. Bright, who has been some days at Plymouth. The coiling on board the Aga memnon is superintended by Mr. Canning, who assisted m the operations last year, and who laid the cable across the Gulf of St. Law rence from Newfoundland to Cape Breton. Mr. Whitehouse, who completed the line from Varna to Balaklava, aud was charged with the first shipment and finings on board the Niag ara, takes the same duty now, with'thc aid of Captain Kell, who was engaged in laying the early Mediterranean lines. Mr. Everett, of the Niagara, accompanied by Mr. Clifford, one of the company’s assistant engineers on the former occasion, hasbeen intrusted with the supervision of the experiments carried on at the works of Messrs. Easton & Amos, under the advice of Messrs. Penn, Field, & Lloyd, whom the company have consulted upon the modifications to be made in the paying-out machinery, and with the concurrence of Mr. Bright, their engineer, and Mr. Appold, who invented, for a different purpose, the form of brake to be used. The staff of telegraphic clerks engaged last year has been retained, and some of them, under the guidance of Mr. Whitehouse, the electrician, are perfecting themselves in their future employment by transmitting and receiving, through the 2,630 miles of wire now at Plymouth, the class of messages anticipated on the closer juuetion of England with the United States and the con tinent of America.
