William Jones of Burke Coun ty, whose gin house and packing screw with his gin and the seed of some five or six bales of Cotton, was burnt not long ago, according to the Waynesboro News ap pears perfectly satisfied, that ‘‘the blossom end of his next crop is gone.” - ■ - The story which has been going the roundsof the papersabout the unfortunate marriage of Washington Irving's firet-love to Dr. Creighton, a Presbyterian minister of great wealth, and her subsequent raving madness, all turns out to be a mistake.— Dr. Creighton is a poor Episcopal minister, and his wife belonged to a different family from Irving’s betrothed. Ail the romance, really so, is this: Irving was engaged to* be married to a young lady who died after the engagement was made, and ho never married. S. Crain, writing to tlie News {Flemingsburg.

The Athens Watchman, publishes two letters from persons in Nashville, denying that deaths had occurred in the latter place from the-use of beer and yeast made from the California Moss. It is admitted that sickness has been caused by the use of beer not properly fermented. The yeast is highly lauded, and said to be supplanting Soda and Salevatns. Are Negroes Falling!

Missionary Anniversary. The Anniversary of the Methodist Epis copal Church South, was held in Macon on Monday’ night of last week, Bishop An drew presiding. The Annual Report of the Secretary Dr. Sebon showed, that from small beginnings the amount annual ly contributed to the good cause has in creased yearly till last year it was more than two hundred thousand dollars. Upwards of three thousand dollars weie collected at the meeting, with the prospect of a large addition being yet made by persons not present. A Liberal Bridegroom. 1 The La Grange Repot ter is informed, by a Justice of the Peace of Tronp Comity, who had been recently called upon to per form a marriage ceremony, that after the due discharge of tiis duty, the bridegroom inquired the amount of the aamage, and on being told that to pay at all, or what, sum was to be paid, was entirely optional, the newly made husband tendered an eagle quarter, which was instantly refused, with the suggestion it might pay bis •fer riage back home. Guano Poisonous. W e see an accuuut, going the round of our exchanges, of a negro man who bad a wound in one of Ins bands, being poisoned bj the Guano in which be was working.

US' 3 Col. Barnes of the Chronicle , Sentinel, thus vents his spleen upon the la dies who discommoded him while report ing the i roceedings of the Charleston Convention on the 30th of last month. “The Institute Hall this morning, was packed an hour before the time of meeting, and it was seriously proposed at one time to resolve the meeting into a Woman’s Rights Convention. Not satisfied with the place assigned them in their own. gallery, the la< ies'eame, on the floor, on both sides of the Ilall, blocked up the approach to i lie Repoiters’ ilooi on the right of the President, at an early hour, even invaded the Reporters’ seats, and made themselves a nuisai.ee generally. We bore the inflic tion with our usual Christian philosophy and only wished that those who had any chil dren were at home with them, and those who had none were study ing how beet they might go down to.history in the character of Roman Matrons. From the Savannah M<irnfng > News. Letter From Hashiugtoa. Washington, April 28th. , Public interest was divided here, to-day between the Charleston and the Heenan and Sayers fight. But, when coining to details, the public found more interest in the latter. I presume that in northern cit ies this was the case even to a greater ex tent than here. The general opinion has been that the Convention would be broken up, either without a nomination, or with two nomina tions —one of Jefferson Davis by the South and the other of Douglas by the North. Should tins be so, it does not necessarily invoke a destruction of the harnu ny of the party, nor of the election by the Detyocracy. Should there be two plat forms and two or even more Democratic nominees, the electors choose, if they con stitute a majority of the electoral votes, would all cast their vut s for one of the candidates, and tor that candidate who may have the greatest number of electoral votes. This would Ire tiie best plan, per haps, for defeating the election ol Mr. Seward, or any Republican candidate. A Southern candidateon a Southern platform vrouJd arry 127 votescertain.. Only twen ty-four more IY‘ !1 *>e needed, or twenty sevenif Kansas beanm..!*^ the North ern Democratic candidate upou ti e North ern platform may carry a much greater’ number of electoral votes than that. But the electors would, of cotuse, unite on the Southern candidate. This would be pre ferable tb throwing the election npon the House, though in that body the Republi can candidate could not lie chosen. If the Convention should bo broken up in an ill temper—which is not yet to be apprehended—it would have n very ill elleet upon the proceedings of Congress. No restraint or forbearance would bo ex erted, and Northern.and Southern Demo crats wonld be brought into violent antag onism. The Republicans watch the pro ceedings with anxiety, hoping to take ad vantage of them. They do not -believe, to-day, that they will,have to fight Doug las, whose nomination they have hitherto feared. They have had an exagerated idea of the strength of Mr. Douglas in the Northern debatable States. But their fear of him, as an opponeuf, was based up on the supposition that he would have the unanimous support of the Convention, and that the South and the Pacific States wonld give him L 27 electoral votes. That is now believed to be out of the quenion, ami, therefore, they will trust the nomina tion of S ward. Many believe that Guth rie would run better in the Northern States than Douglas. Guthrie would be more likely to carry Pennsylvania than Douglas. But, ere this reaches you, the question will, no doubt, be settled as ,ar as it can be, by the Charleston Convention L have no doubt tlial Mr. Breekeuridge has, as reported, withdrawn his name as a Candidate. lie never intended to have his name used as the rival of Mr. Guthrie. The interest of the Administration in it e no ..illation and platform is confined to the rejection of Douglas and his Squatter Sovereignty doctrine. Photos. Washington Items. The excitement here is tremendous.— Douglas says be never will withdraw and bis opponents swear he never shall be the recognized Democratic candidate for the Presidency. Douglas’ backers looked fearfully Hue to-day. All ot them that had any money staked their pile upon liiir. when the seces sion took place j they lb ,ugbf the thing was dead sure. Their small change is iu a baa wny. Senator Simmons returned to-day, and is now prepared to submit to the Senate his proposed amendments to the Nicara guan anu Mexican treaties, and but little doubt exists as to their ratification. The developments respecting the inter est taken by England iu quieting the Met- i ican difficulties, have opened the eyes of! Senators, who are now satisfied that un less this Government act* promptly it will bo too late. 51 r. Davis, of Mississippi, will speak In j the 8. naff up at Ha TeriifojM re* fniba on Monday next. He is expected to make a slashing speech, and will pay liis respects in handsome style to Douglas” new-fangled doctrine. Uncle Dabney P. Jones. *‘A knight of high renown: Not Quixote” “bold, Nor Ain Mis of Gaul, nor Hudibras, Mirror of knighthood, e’er could vie with thee.” This war-worn veteran is still doing no ble service ip the cause of Temperance. No one dare question for a moment bis devotion and firmness. Like a true Knight, he has never laid off bis armor; aud his armor is now as and his trenchant blade as keen and glittering, as when first he enteied the lists to battle a# the friend of woman and blighted humanity. He is no less ardent in his advocacy of temperance in its low tide as in its full tide. Let tem perance be popular or unpopulai, Uncle Dabney remains staunch and true ’o tbe cause. When disaster oame upon the temperance cause in Georgia and the ranh’s of its advocates were broken and dismayed, and genius and lean ing and eloquence from Pen, Press and Pulpit, were not heard in advocacy of a. cavsc that was wan ing, old Blucher still maintained the field, his shield upraised and his taithful sword unsheathed. Well does he deserve the honorable title of the Temperance Cham pion of Georgia. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday last, he addressed the citizens of Barnes ville upon this subject. Dabney.P. Jones’ Division of Sons of Temperance, turned out in full force, making a magnificent dis play'. The Burnesville Brass Baud sere naded Uncle Dabney, causing the welkin to resound with the “concord of sweet sounds.” There were some forty additions made to Dabney P. Jones’ Division, as the re sult of Uncle Dabney’s labors. Amicalola Division No. 156, at Carters ville, is progressing finely, numbering neat one hundred members. This speaks well for Cartsrsvil)e and its citizens. While Uncle Dabney by bis zeal and labors, has kept alive the temperance sen timent in this State, theie are two other gentlemen whose efforts are worthy of all praise. The Order of the “Sens of Tem perance” are indebted to the fidelity and assiduity of their Grand Scribe, J. (J. C. Burnett of Macon, for their present heal thy condition. He is true aud tried ami eminently trustworthy. The Older of the “Knights of Jericho” t we much to the unremitting attention and untiring v : gi!ane of their able Grand Wor thy Recorder, W. G. Forsyth. His activi ty, energy and watchfulness in discharg ing the duties of his statioii have contribu ted to their present picspevity. Both of these gentlemen have (lie entire confidence of their brethren, and we trust will long .maintain their position which they have filled with so much credit to themselves, and benefit to their respective associations. —Atlanta American. Shipments of Colton. Great efforts are now made to attract cotton to Eastern States by an overland route from tbe city of Memphis, Tenn., via tbe Mississippi. Railroad facilities have increased of late so rapidly’ that competi tion for this trade has come to be consider ed noticeable, and eomsideinble capital is seeking Investment with the express object of aiding to produce the diversion sought. A cotton compressing establishment, on a large scale has been put in operation in Memphis, and tbe result of its labors has been very considerably to induce freights of cotton per bale. Btfore this movement the expenses on a bale ot cotton from Memphis to Portland were, $6 SO; since the Dales have been compressed tbe cost ol transportation between the markets men tioned has been reduced to $-1 50 per bale. To certain extent, it is more than prob able that Northern milk will hereafter be supplied by pet chases made .' n Memphis and shipped up the river, instead ci com ing for sale and shipment to this city. For instance, the sup ply Lor the York Mill, near Utica, in New York, and other mills still further in the interior, formerly was obtain ed in New Orleans, shipped to New l’ork, and thence to the places of con-umptio by rail. The river and more direct over land route may’ now Lq found cheaper than that which these cotton supplies have here tofore taken. Experiments have been made this season which indicate success in changing the direction of much of the ra w material used in factories having a locality so favorable to an interior route. We have not. however, s; much to fear from this movement as might be expected. New Orleans is the great centre where the cotton trade of the Spulhwest naturally converges. Bills to be cashed must seek this city, even if purchases are made in Memphis, and it is impossible to build up a great cotton mart where there are not’ lo cal monetary facilities for moving the crop. Id addition to this, the cotton market of Memphis can never contain much cotton that is not the pr ‘duct of Tennessee. Pur chasers cannot, therefore, find all the qual ities that are important in the .varied man ufacture even of our owu mills. Diabolical Odtbagb—One Shot and Another He no —We gather, from the Seguin (Texas) Mercury, c.f the 11th, the subjoined particulars of a most dastardly outrage : We learn that some tea days ago a par ty of seven men, paiuted up and otherwise disguised, proceeded to the residence of one Flowers, in D<*.Wilt county, and de liberately shot him dead in the presence of his little daughter, whilst he was plant ing corn in the field. The little girl was dropping corn for her father when she dis-1 covered the seven disguised men at the end of *he row, waiting for them to ap proach. Informing him, the father turned 1 tu tiee and was shot down. The party then took a person named Taylor, also at woikinthe field, carried him into the woods and hung him to a tree, and then fled. Our informant did not know what prompted the, parties to the perpetration of this bloody deed, hut presume it was in obedience to an edict ot the terrific ‘Judge Lynch,’ wbo lias exercised in some parts of the country for some years past, a dread and patent sway. Tho father of this man Flowers is said to have murder ed a negro of bis in Karnes county two years ago, and was compelled to fly from there in consequence. This may afford some clue, to the summary execution of i the son Child Kidnapped by Negreos and Black Republicans.— Aa advance proof from -the office of the New Bedford (Mass.) Times, tc the editor of which wc aro in debted for the courtesy, gives us the fol lowing intelligence: “Last Thursday, as the New York 4 p. ni., train was about leaving a mob ot ne groes and negresses took out of tbe car by force, and rnacVofl’ with, a girl aged about seven years, who came on the ship tsylvia, Capt. Swasey, from the Sandwich Islands, and had been stopping with tbe Captainat tbe Parker House. The mother of tbe girl, when dying at the Sandwich Islands, gave lier to the missionaries to be provided for as they might think best. The mis sionaries gave her to Capt. Swasey to be educated by tbe Captain’s wife, residing in Newport, R. I. The Captain has in Ins pos si ssion the papers proving his statement He had bought her ticket, secured her seat in tbe car, and intrusted her to the care of his sister to be taken to Newport wdien she was taken violently from her lawful guar dian by a band of lawless negresses, coun ten,\nced by a lot of negroes looking on, and w’as kidnapped from tbe depot. The chief w hite actor in this disgraceful outrage was Edw’ard Munroe, Esq., a justice of tbe peace and „ v unner of an express to New York. He .seized Capt. Swasey by the coat collar a.nd .commanded him—doing no violence whatsoever, nor making any dis turbance—to keep the. peace ot tbe com monwealtb.” The bleached remains of tbe emigrant party massacred at. the Mountain Meadow, in Utah, have been collected.into a single grave, and a stone monument, conical in form, fifty feet in height, new marks the spot where they rest. This is surmoun ted by a cross of red ceda \ twelve feet in height, on which is carved the following inscription: “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, saith the Lord.” On the base of the monument stands a granite slab, into which are cut tie words: “Hero 120 m ; n women, and children were massacred in cold blood, early in September, 1857. They were from Arkansas.” * A Culling Affray. Yesterday afternoon, (last Sunday,) two men named .Lindsey and Cox, got into dis pute at or near the Planters Hotel, when blows were passed, but no serious damage was done. Later in the day the difficulty was renewed at the boarding bouse of Mr. Martin, corner of Hunter and Pryor streets in which Cox received a severe stab from a pocket knife in the hands of Lindsey.— Lindsey had a hearing this morning before a magistrate, and was eommited for furth er trial. Cox is.confined to bis room, but his injuries are not consideaed of a serious nature. Both men were said to have been in liquor at the time of the difficulty. An other warning not to indulge too freely in the use i of intoxicating drinks. —Atlanta American. Hon. Joseph 11. Lumpkev-—At a meet ing of the Constitutional Union Party, held in Albany, Dougherty county, on tbe 21st April, Hon.

But we fear the day is passed by when tbe high-toned Christian gentleman can reach that most responsible of all offices in this government.
