APA LAC II ICO LA KIV ER.
Commerce on this river is gelling into very
bad repute here. The premium of insurance on
properly transported upon it, which was once
half of one per cent, has been pul up lo three
percent, and it is not certain (hut at that high
rale much insurance could he effected. Tin?
difficulty is not. the discovery of any new intri
cacies about the navigation, or natural difficul
ties of any sort, but dissatisfaction with the
manner in which property is managed by those
who have it in charge. Losses sustained long
ago, when property was sold for the benefit ofall
concerned, are some of them not yet adjusted :
but the little amounts due to those who had oth
erwise lost all, are retained by the owners or
masters of steamboats, who are yet men of pro
perly, and who pass as respectable in the com
munities around them. Some recent losses have
been managed in a very unsa'isfactory manner.
It is reported (hat the cargo of the steamer Tem
pest, which cost aoino $33,000, was sold by the
Captain, against the protest of the accredited
agent lor the underwriters, for $750, —the clerk
of the boat being the purchaser. It became ne
cessary to employ the I). S. Marshal to seize the
cargo. The underwriters have paid a total loss
on lire cargoes by one boat, and the boat wo be
lieve instill not lost. Not a great while ago, we
are told, a steamer loaded with cotton gut a.
ground. A time was fixed for the sale of the
cargo. At the hour appointed, a Northern cot
ton buyer was present, but he was told that as
only one other person was there to hid, it was
not deemed proper to proceed with the sale. Me
went away, and within an hour the cargo was '
knocked olf to the o her person, (he being con
neete I with the boat.) a. thiee cents a pound.—
The cotton was really hut very little damaged,
and was probably worth twelve cents at least.—
So it would seem that the difficulty was not, that
two persons were too few lo compose an auction
company, hut too many. These are samples of
many It ansa lions which have distinguished the
Apalachicola river from nil the other Southern
rivets, or rivers any where on this Continent.—
Whatever may have been the teal motives!)) the
various cases, lie transactions were exceeding
ly unfair, and give abundant reason for the worst
suspicions. If practices of this soil arc permit
te l by tlx: people in the neighborhood to lie con
tinued, (for we cannot control them here.) it is
evident ll at they furnish such strong induce,
men's to dishonesty, that men, however honest
themselves, will scarcely he trusted, has the
temptation should he 100 strong for their virtue*.
Tlie subject is of much more impo'-lance to
the people whose impoitsand exports puss upon
the river, than il is to the ci izens of New York
or any other portion of the country. Cotton will
not bring a fraction more in any market because
it has encountered great risks or been protected
by heavy expenses. The mischief therefore,
though at fust it may fail on underwriters and
denims at a distance, will ultimately (all upon
the planteis ami consumers. Their cotton will
he worth its value in maikel, less the charges
and fair calculations of profit; and the goods
they import will he enhanced in price by there
veisc operation of the same rule. So il need
not In* supposed that these losses are to come
out of Northern men. Il will lake more safe
voyages to restore a good reputation, than it has
taken of had voyages lo run it down; and all
these must he paid fer at the high rale, so that
very likely the underwriter!) will in the end
come out safe. The merchants of Columbus
have a great stake in this mailer. Two and a
half per cent each way on all the business of a
town, is quite enough to give rival places a great
advantage in the trade. So having given them
what we deem a suitable warning, we must leave
thorn to lake care of their own affairs, and bring
hack their river to the rank and reputation of
other rivers, by such measures as in their wis.
dorn they may deem best.
It was slated some short, time ago in the
Philadelphia papers, that a Dentist of that city
had discovered the existence of a ligament by
which, as he contended, each tooth was firmly
fixed to the jaw, and that by severing this liga
ment with a Knife or lancet, the extraction of
Ihe tooth could he effected with little or no pain.
Subsequently, however, il was stonily declared
by other dentists that no such ligament existed,
and that its alleged discovery, therefore, was a
sheer imposition. In the November number of
the American Journal oK Medical Science, pub
lithed at Philadelphia, there is an article from
the pen of Dr. Goddard, of that city, which de
clares that such a ligament does really exist;
and inasmuch as all who have teeth are likely
to take an interest in the subject, we copy his
description of it.— Unlit more American.
Description of the. L'g omentum Dmtis. —By
Paul Goddard, M. D. — A lew months since,
an advertisement appeared in the i’niladelphia
newspapers, staling that a dentist, by the name
of Humphreys, possessed the power of extract
ing teeth with very little force or pain, anil by a
mode peculiar lo himself. Conceiving that he
possessed merely an improved form of forceps,
or some similar instrument, il excited hut little
at tent ion on my part. But when I was informed
j,y Mr Borer, 1 hat another dentist, and the ori
ginal nisfoverer of the new method, (Dr. Cald
w< 11.) had taken out a very difficult tooth for him,
w ii|,out pain, and that the new method consisted
in culling wit a penknife something which held
the tooth in its place, 1 resolved to scrutinize the
matter eloM.dy.
Accordingly. I sought Dr. Caldwell’s acquoin
lance, hut found him determined to keep his
disco vet y a secret. I then procured a jaw, and
making a very careful dissection, satisfied my
self of the existence of a ligament. This con
hih'.h of short, strong, ligament oim fibres existing
(to one side of the human tooth only, and unites
the neck of the tooth lo the edge of the alveolar
process. 'The fibres arise from the edge of the
alveolar between the teeth, and proceeding for
wards in the case of the molars, and inwards in
, the case of the incisors, is inserted in the neck
of tin.* ooth. not quite the sixteenth of an inch
from the edge of the enamel. I's size (and of
comse i s strength) varies with the class of
teeth lo which it belongs. In the incisores, it
; h a narrow tape.like hand —in the cnspidali and
! hiciispi' a*», His wider, and in the nmla-es, it is
as wide as the neck of l lie tooth and very strong.
A few of its fibres are blended wi'h the gum in
i s neighborhood, and thus we may account for
us occasional laceration when a tooth is ex
11acted I h adhesion to the tooth is stronger
lhan to the jaw, and, if not cnl, if is commonly
dragged out with the tooth. Its ligmncntous
character is very distinct, the fibres being white
and shining, like tendon.
After making this dissection, I applied lo Dr.
Caldwell to remove a large molar, which ha<
given mo groat trouble for two or three yaars
and although mv tcelli had always yielded with
■ gmeh difficulty, he removed the one m qu.bUon

MACON, Dec. 25.—A narrow escape from

' One oftlie Clerks in the store of J> rnniati Siniih,
on Cotton Avenue, who slept in Die tiack •Vmiii,
was awakened in the middle of the night, hy a

o found (lie room filled with smoke, and the ffames
bursting up by the side of the wall through the
o floor! A bucket of water, which was provide n.
lially at hand, served to extinguish the fin;. On
, search it. was found that die lire had eomninni*

nafely discovered at the time it was, not onlv the

would have been reduced to ashes.
On .Sunday night, the upper floor of the store
of Messrs. Harwell Al Obear, next door to tm*
above, was discovered to be on fire, but owing to
y the lime of night it happened, (about 8 oVlock).
ii and the exertions of those who discover* d it,
e it was subdued before any material damage was
l* sustained. Had not the flames been discovered
1 at so early a period, they would not have stopped
j short of the river, a* it was a very blustering,
windy night. Wo understand the fire call gin in

Twciity-tiilb Congress—Third Session.
[Correspondence of Ihr Charleston Courier,"\
WASHING TON, Deo. 92.
The House got into an excited debate to-day,
1 on a petition offered l-y Mr. Adams a day nr two
1 since, for the e« ablislimeiit of a national Inter.
1 course with ihe Republic of H.iyli, and which
he moved to refer to the Committee on Foreign
1 Relation*, with instructions to consider and re
’ port upon it. The reference was agreed to; a
- number of similar memorials having been al
* ready referred to the same committee. And it
was on the instructions that the contest arose.
1J is reasons for moving the instructions Mr.
A. declared to he two. The first was, that Mr.
* Howard (the Chairman of the Committee) had
r made the declaration that petitions of a similar
character had heretofore lieeu referred to the
Committee on Foreign Affars, ami that that was
’• the last which was heard ofthem. The second
was that Mr. Howard had the other day given a
pledge, that if the House would again send these
petitions to his committee, they should never he
heard of again. Mr. A. contended that it had
. *K*en the settled policy of the United States to
Acknowledge Governments which were de facto
independent—no matter whether lhal indepen
dence had originated in right or in wrong: and t
this was a right by the law of nations, which no (
people could deny.
Mr. Adams then attacked the positions a*- j
sinned the oilier day hy Mr. Lfoare. when a
petition of similar import was before the House, ,
and when Mr. li. protested against its reception (
on the ground that the motives of the petitioner* (
were not such as, in the face of the petition it. 1
self, they were declared to he, hut that Under tin
assumed cloak ofa desire to secure the recogni
tion of Hayti independence, they were secretly
working out the ends and action of abolition.— j
Mr. A. was much excited in his manner and |
language on this part of the subject, declaring ,
that if the Hoii-c of Represent alive* were to set j
themselves up as judge* of the motives <>f peti- '
tinners—to ascertain according to such evidence
as they could get, whether the real motives were
such as accorded with the appearance they wore,
there must at once and for ever he an end to ai!
right of petition.
Step hy step, and in the faro of oft repeated
calls to order, Mr, Adams got full blown into his
favoiile topic of abolition. At one lime he was
ordered to lake his seat, and he did so. A mo
tion was made lhal he have leave to proceed,
which was agreed to—yeas 114. nays 47.
He then undertook to show that Gborui: (
Washington and Thomas Jkpfkkson, were aim- ,
liiionisi.s in the fullest sense of the term, and ,
dared any one to come with hi* proof in support j
of a contrary assertion. In this way he pro- j
ccoded some time, when finding the I Ions" he- (
coming pretty hot with his doctrine*, he rilnc- f
• ta nily yeilded the •■floor. Li the course of In* t
■ remarks, Mr. Adams was repeatedly called lo j
order, and parlieulat ly for speaking ol the servile (
hand of ihe I louse—meaning the Northern Loco (
Focus, Mr. BvNt’M said, if the gentleman he
allowed to go on, 1 hope some ol the “.servile t
part of this House,” (Nophern or »S ulhern,)
Would be permitted to answer him. 1 hope so, j
said Mr. A., that is what wc want, —only open
your mouths gentlemen.
Mi. Bynum followed. He said the South had
home and forborne in this matter too lung. It ,
was now the interest ol* the South lo enter into a ,
discussion of the subject. The South had been he. (
trayed and deceived hy its professed friends.— »
It was in the power of the House, if they chose, ,
so repress these debates, hut the gentleman from t
Massachusetts waft permitted to proceed. By ,
two parlies were the right® of the South Irani.; (

WASHINGTON, D e. 23.
In my letter of I jsl evening, 1 gave you some
account of the extraordinary debate whi. h we 1
hud in (ho House of Representa:ives on Mr. An
ams' motion to inst rue. I the committee on Foreign
Affairs lo consider and make a report on the pe.
til ion presmiled hy him for the recognition of

General Thompson ofyonr State made on the
subject, are the theme ufmiie.h conversulmn here,
and that they may he butter understood hy you
and those wlmm they more espe.dally inlens*, I
now give you Ihe snhstancc ufliiem, a* 1 mule:,
sluo I (hem at the lime.
Mr.T, did not rise he sail, t•> prolong the de.
hate,hut to bring it to a «•!«>-<* # i I*it v\ as possible for
j him to do so. Ile did not look upon this *u je« t
in the same light in which it had been icga'- ed
hv the geiuh’inan from North C.uolina, (.M .
Bigklow.) In one. sense he thought that the
discussion might he dangerous; but, more than
that, he thought it degrading and dishonorable
in a Southern man t «> discuss the subject here
or elsewhere. The only attitude becoming a
Soul hern man in relal ion to all effects ol (his de
scription was that ofsconifnl defiance. The R -
preseiilalivis ofllio South Upon questions n fleet- -
ing their interests, w-re driven to a wret died
system of special pleading, unworthy ofa eonn
ly court lawyel; and the su!-jeel, 100, had herni
t reatud with a lenity, which seemed to him high,
ly improper. He was not going lo argue tiie
proposition now before the II use. To do so,
would he io disgrace hmi-eli and the people
whose interests he represented,
Mr. Wish appeared to lake, objections to err.
lain portions oft hose observations, and lune rose
and said, that I lies** were strong observations.—
He had discussed this question, and he had iai*.
ed the question on the reception ol the petition*.
And he would discuss ii again—forced upon
them as it was hy the South il*el
Mr. Thompson said that his remark* l most have
been misiindeistood. He did not ailude to any
debate which had taken place on a subject which
lie had Ibrhone to name. Hi* remark* now were
addressed to the question immediately before
the House, and l»j' the discussion of which he
conceived the pride of the South lo l»< injured.
It was proposed that a departure should In- made
from the usage of the House, hy giving special I
instructions to a (’orninillec to report upon a
subject which, ofall others upon the face ol the ,
earth, ought to he thrust on* with s ’orn an I con
tempt. And suppose a hla* k miiiisl r were to ,
he sent here hy President Boyer, what would be (
the consequence? The Ins'Motions of the conn- (
try would reel like a drunaen man; nay the very j
act of such an individual landing on I <■ Ameii- (
can soil, would sound the knell of our Insiilu-
lions and our Government. If there was one
prayer, which, above ail others, he addiessed to *
I lie Du ly in the deep and fervent spoil, it wa* *
that the country might he brought to a cnnclu-
sive issue on this question, lie was far from
being afiaid of it, he, for his own part, desired it
above all other tilings. Might God grant that j
when it did come, the Institutions of the land j
on hi Im enabled to survive the shock. That
the Institutions of the Son'll would not do so if
the issue was not so ni made, he f It abundantly
convinced. If those who desired to have a black k
minister sent here from tho Republic of Hayti.
could have their wish, he believed lhal it would
be the greatest blessing which could happen to ,
tin* <oiilh. because it would give lo the South
that issue for which they most fervently prayed.
Let all the final ics hire and else where conic up
to the scratch. Thu South would then know .
what lo do. r
Ido no', of course, give the above a* a verbal 1
report, hut as only the substance of what Gen. T. J
said, as I understood him. He made his points
mucli stronger than I have put them, and hence, ,|
it has been said in (ho city to-day, that “the cri- „
sis is coming”—that, “if abolition he any longer il
discussed, the South will recede,” and other ii
things to t he same end.
Indeed, it is my own impression, that the 1
ll.mse cannot get along under the present slate
of things. The abolition resolutions, though n
well intended, are ineff’ dual, except ns the mere c
assertion of principles, which the Constitution
has taken core of. The fit h resolution prescribes e
that ‘•p’opo'ilioiistouuhing slavery,” shall not bo
debated. But this is i(effectual. We have, *'
every day, propositions touching the subject «.f ,
slavery that are discussed, and very freely, l y .
Ih>tli side*. I.’ these discussions goon, every
o*her imsinrsH must slop. The House most soon
conic so a dee. mod onlhe subject — and either e
cany out the intention of the abolition resold, h
lions, or else go into a full considcrat ion ofaholi- 11
: ion topics, petit ion*, propositions, dtc. abandon- ||
ing all other business. „
