Technical Observation.
A few days ago a couple of men got into a
Sight, and as a consequence, it being naturally
the case, a ring of excited individuals got
around the parties, and each according to
his own feelings in the matter, gave his ad
vice.
“ Peg it Into him,” said the shoemaker,
“ hammer his upper leather for him, that’s
it 1 wax him mv lad, beat his sole out for
him.”
“ Out into his fat, old fel,” said the butcher,
“knock him on the head. Say! why don’t yer
punch his ribs ? Your a regular calf, you are!
Knuckle him, now yer got him, and make mince
r meat of him.”
“Dress him well.” said the tailor, “see how
he pants, fell him ! gire him a stitch in his
ribs ! button up his lip, and knock him bang
up.”
“ Tan his hide,” said the curl ier, “ peel
the bark _qff of his nose—and damage his
skin.”
“ This suits me exactly," said the lawyer, “get
his head in chancery, and bleed lim till he
pleads that he’s a good case.” Then advanc
ing to the other one, he said, “He's 4 doing you
an injury, he’s perfectly fce-rocious ; take
the law on him, and I'lMook out for the remain
der.”
•• I saw him strike you first,” said the car
penter. “Nail him 1 Knock his uprights from
under him ; cross cut him until he lies dor
mant. “UjArt a basket ofshavings on you
old chip.’wßl
“ Plug him in the eye,” said the tobacconist.
“Get a double twist on him. and then chaw him
up. Don't let him stump you, givo him one on
his nigger head.”
“What’s the row,” said the Police, coining up
after every one had gone. “Show us a chance
to have a grab at somebody.”
What Sort of Americans are to
Rule America?
The sapient Editors of the K. K. organs arc
just now entailing upon their readers a series.ol
profound articles on their cant phrase—“Aincr
cans rule America,” ringing all the changes ol
the pe'xmtal mood upon it; and lest the reader
should ,ose himself in the argument, numbering
their articles one, two, throe, &c., as they ad
vance. Now, without aiiy design of arresting
this beautiful argument, dull as it may be, we
cannot refrain from remarking, with the Mont
gome y Advertiser, tliat as America embraces
considerable diversity of populat ion, it is a mat
ter of some consequence to us of the South to
know the particular class or description oi
Americans who are to rule over us. Cannot
the K. N. organs beat little more explicit'! hi
the Northern States, the “American” party are
mostly Abolitionists, and concur in the design
of “warring against the slave power.” In the
South, the so-called “American” party are anti-
Abolition, of course, And direct their energies
mainly against “foreigners and Catholics.” As
the Northern interest ofthe Order is the stroirg
er of the two, we have evCry reason to appre
hend that in the event of a Know Nothing tri
umph in the Unioti, America would be ruled
by such native Abolitionists as Wilson of Mas
sachusetts, Johnson, of Pennsylvania, and ford
of Ohio. Will not the K. N. Organ give us
Its views on this particular branch of the sub

This Chinese Method op Tre vhng Cholera.
—A Chinese missionary recently wrote home
the following singular account:.
One morning after lmving_said inass J felt
symptoms of cholera. I had a difficulty ol
breathing amounting almost to suffocation. A
cold so intense took possession of my arms and
legs that 1 could not feel a hot iron applied to
them. Just then a Chinese Christian came to
see me, and as soon as he looked at me he said.
“Father, you have the cholera.” To be certain,
however, he looked under my tongue, and observ
ing the peculiar blackness of the veins there, he
remarked that unless I applied a remedy speedi
ly I would not live unlit night. I told him to
do what he could for me. He took an ordinary
Sin and begttn pricking me under the tongue uu
-1 he drew out from leu to twenty jet black
drops of blood. Then, after rubbing iny arms
gently, he tied a string very tightly about each
one of my fingers, and pricked each one on the
outside at the root of the nails until he brought
a drop or two of the same kind of blood from
each. Then, to see whether the operation had
been successful or nut, he pricked me with the
same in the arm, very near the vein that is usu
ally opened in bloodletting, and seeing no blood
issue, he pronounced it satisfactory. I still felt,
however, a fearful oppression of the lungs. To
relieve this, he rau the pin obliquely into the
!iit of my stomach about, two thirds of its length.
This operation the Chinese call opening the
mouth of the heart.) Not a drop of blood came
out here, but in a moment 1 felt myself entirely
reliefted, my blood began its circulation.my nat
ural warmth returned, and after an hour of slight
fever I went about my avocations. This is the
ordinav Chinese remedy. I have known it to
be applied to five of our’fathers in cholera, and
it failed only once.
Natural Bridge.—Among other California
curiosities, the Shasta Courier informed that a
natural bridge has been discovered near Wat
son’s Gulch, in Trinity county, which is describ
ed as being sixty-three paces through, sixteen
paces in width ; from the bottom ofthe gulch-to
the arch, about twenty feet: and tlie entire height,
from the bottom oftlie guleb to tho top of the
bridge, about one hundred leet.
On the right hand us you enter the arch from
the east side, is an apartment about 11 feet long
by 10 feet in width, and 7 feet high, in which
there are quite a number of curiosities, in the
shape of rude bowls, basins, &e.—No digger
either mule or female, ever passes here without
depositing either a stock or stone on the top el
some rock near this bridge.—About halfway
from the top ofthe arch tothetop of the bridge
,is another save or apartment, but which, be
cause of its position, has not as yet been exam
ined. This bridge is composed entirly of lime
stone. The water flowing beneath it is of most
excellent cfttality-—making the teeth ache be
cause of its excessive coldness.
In the very excellent letter of A. C. I
Walker, of Richmond county, accepting the A n-'
U Know Nothing nomination for Senator; be
writes as follows :
“I have never heard a reason assigned for!
breaking up the Union organ z.tlirei, under wiiicl;
we acted two years ago. lam still more mys-'
tifiod as to the substitution tor those principles,

This sudden zeal in the cause o! religion is quite
os unaccountable as either. Half the Know
Nothings of my acquaintance would ati.iut. as
soon acknowledge the orthodoxy of the grand
Lama, asof Martini Luther: and their familiarity
with the evils of foreign emigration is limited to
tlie occasional employment of a son of Erin, to
dig a ditch for agricultural or sanitary purposes.
If they exist as evils elsewhere, they are not
known or felt us such here. The abolitionists
alone complain of them at tho North. aud ift hey
only are disturbed by tlu-ir presence. 1 rejoice
exceedingly. If all tho plagees ol Egypt were
showered upon these traitorou heads. I do not
fivl called upon to relive them of their burdens.”
The Paris Alliance. —The New-York

Horrible Murder.
A negro girl belonging to Thomas Jenkins,
Esq., of Raleigh, Jf. C., blew out the brains of
an interesting daughter of Austin Frost, of
Raleigh, aged only 17 years, on Monday last.
The foul deed was committed with a shot gun.
The young lady, Miss Virginia, says the Star,
was sitting out in the yard, while the negro was
scouring one of the back rooms of the house,
when the rest of the family, were alarmed by the
report of a gun, and going to the back door,
found their daughter laying out in the yard with
nearly half of her head shot off. The whole
charge of the gun had entered the side of, aud
tearing off nearly the whole of the back part of
the head, while the brains lay strewn an over
that part of the yard. Immediately on the dis
charge of the gun, the negro leaped tlie fence
and absconded, but was caught before she had
gone very far. A jury of inquest was held over
the body and gave their verdict, that she came
to her death from the effects of a gun in the hands
of the girl Ellen, from cause or causes unknown.
—-The negro’s first account is, that as she was
going out of the house with the gun, she stumb
led over a dog, causing the gun to go off; but
since that, she has stated that she fell over a log
of wood. We understand, that it is the opinion
of the medical men in attendance, that the gun
must have been placed within a foot of her head
to have caused such a wound. The negro is now
in jail. z
I’rbpabatios for the State Fair.—Wc
were astonished yesterday, says the Montgome
ry [Ala.] Mail, to ascertain the extent of the
preparations making for the State Agricultural
Fair, in this city, on the 2d October. The ex
ecutive commitee—which, judging from its op
erations, must be both a discriminating and in
dustrious body—have purchased and enclosed
on our northern suburbs, a large and perfectly
level plateau of land, extending from the river
to the railroad, and have already made very
great advances in preparing the ground and
erecting the necessary buildings. The site is a
magnificent one, many feet above the river, (of
which and a great portion of the city, it affords
a splendid view) as level asa dining table, and
dotted here and there with a willow, oak, elm.
gum, and pine Three wells have been sunk,
affording a superabundance of as pure, clear, de
lightful wStcr as can be had anywhere. The
ground as yCt is only roughly redeemed from
the forest; a fortnight hence the executive com
mittee will have it as smooth as a well-kept
lawn. There are more than fifteen acres under
fence.
Jlanagement of tlie State Road.
Within the last two years, or since the State
R<snd has been under the supervision of Gov.
Johnson, one hundred thousand dollars have
been paid into the State treasury: two hundred
and forty-nine thousantl two hundred and eight
dollars and sixty cents have been paid out for
constructing depot buildings and equipments,
account-incurred under previous administrations:
two hundred thousand four hundred and eleven
dollars and sixty-one cents have been paid on
accounts since, including purchase of sixteen
hundred tons new rails ; and all currcnt-expen
ses for working the Road have been promptly
met.
These are facts which show that all the clam
or about the niismangement of the State Road
is fabricated for political effect, •'specially when
it is remembered that never before has the
State Road paid one dollar into the State Treas

A Nice National Party.
The following are specimens of the kind of
platform adopted by regular Know Nothing
meetings all over the State of New York.—
They are resolutions which were unanimously
adopted ut the “Senecca County American Con

the Order, the Albany Register, of the 11th
inst:
Resolved, Tliat the platform of the Ameri
can parly, adopted at Binghamton, meets our
unqualified approval.
Resolved, That we are in favor of a judi

vent intemperance; pauperism and crime.
Resolved, That we are opposed to the Ne
braska swindle and any more slave territory,
and that we will not nominate men who are not
willing to act in accordance with this resolution.

FURTHER PER WASHINGTON
All accounts concerning the fall of Sevasto
pol contained iu the Government despatches,
generally concede that the allies hold the city
proper and all fortifications therein; that the
Russians have retreated across the bay, and
now occupy the promontory and forts north of
the city.
The’Paris papers are discussing the question
whether Sevastopol will be tenable long, as the
Russians are masters of the forts on the north
side of the city.
It is rumored in London that the Russians
are falling back on Baksha Serai; but, the
French rumors say the Russians will certainly
hold the north side of the place to the lost cx

Baltimore Sun of yesterday morning:
“lEibrisburo, September 26.—Our city hea
presented a most animated spectacle today, and
is thronged to overflow with viiiters. All the
principtu hotels are decorated with flags and
banners are suspended across the streets at vari
ous points.
“The trains of cars continue to arrive crowded
with passengers, whilst wagons and vehicles of
every description are pouring in from the sur
rounding country. It is doubtful whether they
will all find sleeping quarters to-night.
“At twelve o’clock to-day the concourse
assembled at the railroad depot to receive and
welcome the President of the L nited States.
He was greeted with loud and prolonged cheers,
whilst a national salute of thirty guns was fired
by the military. He was accompanied from
Baltimore by ex-Mayor: Hollins. Hon. Joshua
Vansant, Hon. John P. Kennedy, Robert M.
Magraw, and Zcnoc Barnum, esqs.. and a large
delegation of Baltimoreans.
“After being welcomed by the authorities,
to which he briefly responded, he was conduc

dinner, accomdauied by tlie governor of the
States and a comittee of the Agricultural Socie

heartily welcomed by the spectators.
“The display of cattle, horses, chickens, agri

Arrest of Municipal Officers.
At New York, on Monday. Aldermen Her
rick, Moser, and Drake, and Councilmen Wan
dcll, Cooper, and Healy, were arrested to an
swer recent indictments by the Grand Jury,
charging them with official corruption. The
charges are briefly as follows:
Alderman Herrick is chargid with receiving
from Edward Waring SI 00 on the Ist of June
last, for his influence in the matter of the 86th
street grade. Also, with receiving similar sums
for the same purpose, aud from tthe same man,
or other occasions.
A second indictment against Aiderman Her
rick is on the complaint of W. K. J ones, who
charges him with asking a bribe in the matter
ofthe contract for raising the Joseph Walker.
Aiderman Drake is charged by AV. R. Jones
with asking a bribe for h’is influence iu the mat
ter ofthe Joseph Walker contract Sum not
named.
Aiderman Moser is charged with asking a
SI,OOO for bis influence in the same matter.
Councilman AVandell, of the Finance Com
mittee, is charged with offering to go in favor of
the 810,000 appropriation for the extension of
Canal street, &c., in consideration of a sum of
money not named iu the indictment. Wra. L.
Wiley is the complainant
Councilman Cooper is charged with offering,
for the sum of 8500, to use his influence to re
lease Peter Palm of his contract for cleaning
streets in the 11th Ward.
Councilman Healy is charged -with asking a
bribe of 81,000 for the farmers on their appli
cation for a stand or position for their wagons
west of West street, near Washington market. >
The accused were taken before Recorder Smith *
and held no answer to the allegations. The re-1
port tliat two police justices and some of the 1
heads of departments were indicted, is not cor- j
rect. The Journal of Commerce remarks :
“The Grand Jury have performed a signal
service at this juncture by examining into the
conduct of several public functionaries. They
have thus far only commenced their labors. A
wild field lies before them ready for their future
action. If the public shall be equally true to I
tlieir cause of justice, those will be elected in '
November who will save themselves and the
city of New York from the deep disgrace which
gross misgovernment and corruption have in
flicted.”
More Horrors Behind.
The editor of the Republican, writing to the
Chronicle & Sentinel, says, unguardedly, in
reference to Mr. Stephens' unanswerable argu
ment on the National Constitution of the Know j
Nothing party :
Nor could Mr. Stephens have read from the
Constitution adopted at Philadelphia; for he
has never seen that instrument.
There is, then, another “instrument”—anoth
er constitution behind, which the public has
not seen. There is, also, according to the Re- j
publican ofthe 11th of August, a “new ritual’ I
behind, which has never yet come to light.— |

indeed broken up, but it was only to give way
to another and more private concern, from
which you are excluded! You.are not thought

from the printed record, is sufficient proof.

J. M. Hutchings writes to the Mariposa Ga
zette, a description of the Yo-Semil v Valley
and its waterfalls. Mr. Hutchings, M*!'. Ayras,
and Mr. Millard, both of San Francisco, and
Mr. Stair, of Coulterville, for a party to visit
the place named. They appear to have started
from an Indian village on tire Fresno, where
they procured two Indian guides. ?Jr. Hutch
ings says:
From Mr. Hunt’s store, we kept an east of
north course, up the divide between the Fres
no and Chowchilla valleys; thence descending
towards the south fork of the Merced river, and
winding round a very rocky point, we climbed
nearly to the ridge of tlic middle or main fork
j of the Merced, and descending towards the Yo-
I Semity valley, we came upon a high point, clear
I of trees, from whence we had our first view of
i this singular nnd romantic valley: and, as- the
‘ scene opened in full view before us, we were
i almost speechless w ith wondering admiration at
its wild and sublime ifrnndeur. “What!” tx
. claimed one, at length, “have wc come to the
i end of ail things?” “Can this be the opening
of the Seventh Seal?” cries another. "This
far, very far, exceeds Niagara,” says a third.
We had been ont from Marijwsa about four
days, and the fatigue of the journey hud made
us weary and a little peevish ; but when ottr
eyes looked upon tlie almost terrific grandeur
of this scene, all. all was forgotten. “1 never
expected to behold so beautiful a sight!” “This
acene Moua amply repays me for my travel 1"
"I should have lost the most magnificent sight
that I ever saw, had I not witnessed this !”
were exclamations of pleasurable surprise that
fell from the lips of all, as we sat down to drink
in the varied beauties of this intoxicating and
enchanting scene.
On tho north side, stands one bold, perpen
dicular mountain of granite, shaped like an im
mense tower. Its lofty top is covered with
great pines, that by distance become mere
shrubs. Our Indian guides called this the “Ca
pitan.” It measures, from the valley to its
summit, about 2,800 feet.
Just opposite to this, on the south side ofthe
valldy, our attention was first attracted by the
magnificent waterfall, about seven hundred feet
in height. It looked like a long, broad feat Il
er of silver, that hung depending over a preci
pice: and, as this feathery tai! of leaping spraj
thus hung, a slight breeze moved it from side
to side, and as the last rays of the setting sun
were gliding it with rainbow hues, the red
would mix with the purple, and the purple with
the yellow, and the yellow with the green, and
the green with the silvery sheen of its whitened
foam, as it danced in space.
*****
On rushed the water over its rocky bed, and
as it reached the valley, it threw up a cloud of
mist, that made green and flourishing the grass
and flowers, and shrubs, that slumbered at the ’
mountain’s base—while towering 3000 feet;
above the valley, stood the rugged and pine-i
covered cliffs, tbat.Ju broken and spiral peaks!
girdle in the whole.
Passing further up the valley, one is struck ;
with the awful grandeur of the immense moun
tains on either side—some perpendicular, some
a little sloping. One looks like a tall light-!
house, another like a giant capittil of immense
dimensions; all arc singular, and surmounted i
by pines
Now we crossed the river, and still advanc-1
ing up the valley, turned a point, and before •
us was an indescribable sight—a waterfall, 2,- (
200 feet in height—the highest iu the world.— j
It rushed over the cliffs, and with one bold leap !
falls 1200 feet, then a second of 500 feet more.'
then a third of over 500 feet more- the three
leaps making 2200 feet.
Standing upon the opposite side of the val
ley, and looking at the tali pines below, tlie
great height of these falls can at a glance be.
comprehended.
About teu miles from the lower end of the
valley there is another fall of not less than 1,-
500 feet. This, with less falls and a lake, make
the head of the Yo-Seniity valley, so that this
valley is about 10 miles iu length, and from a
half to one mile in width; and. although there
is good laud enough for several farms, it can
not be considered, upon the whole, as a good
farming valley. Speckled trout, grouse, and
are quite numerous.

Fire!
About five o'clxrk on Sunday rooming last
the upper portion of one of those tenements
known a.3 the “Graves’ old wooden buildings,”
was dUcoverej to be on fire.
Several attempts to set fire to these buildings
have been made during the past year without
effect, and the fire of Sunday morning was evi
dently causal by the work of an incendiar y.
The three upper tenements were owned by
Mr. John H. Mann, and were insured for 8900
in the Southern Mutual. One was unoccupied,
and in which, the fire was fli st discovered. An
other was occupied by a German \Vatch Maker,
who had removed there the day previous. An
otlier was occupied bv Mr. Spienng a Boot and
Shoe Maker.
Tlie next tenement was owned and occupied
by Mr. B. Morris. He was insured in the
Hartford Insurance Company for 81000.
The brick building owned by the estate of
Kincldey, was partially damaged, bat fully in
sured.
Tho ow ners and occupants of neighboring
stores and dwellings sustained losses from the
removal of tlieir effects and the wetting which
is always incident to such occasions.
The fire department were early upon the
ground, but the combustible nature of tho old
building materials, their very dry condition,
added to the scarcity of water, rendered it almost
impossible to arrest the flames in the Graves’
buildings. entirely-consumed.

Whereas, The Government of the United
States having left the question of slavery to be
decided by the people of the Territory of Kan

The plan of the Capitol Extension.—lt is
! stated in the National Intelligencer that the
; plan adopted for the extension of the capitol in
■ Washington is due to the suggestion to the late
. Daniel Webster, and it adds:
! When the various plans were under discus
sion, in the nresence of the several artists, and
! before Mr. {’resident Fillmore, the plan of the
' extension as offered some years since by the
> Bureau of tlie Corps of Topographical Engineers
! appeared to have the most admirers. The chief
difficulties were in ventilation and light; when
Mr. Webster suggested the throwing the wings
off a few feet, and the making of the connection
by a short corridor. The idea was immediately
accepted, aud Mr. Walter was requested to
make a drawing accordingly. He made one,
which was submitted to a subsequent meeting,
i and was adopted by the President.

ATLANTA WEEKLY EXAMINER
A New Southern Enterprise!
SUBSCRIPTION ONLY
One Dollar per annum.
The Weekly Examixek will after the first day
of August next, be issued to subscribers, at the
low price of ONE DOLLAR per annum, paya
able invariably in advance.
Many reasons have induoed the proprietor of
; this paper to ernbarkiu an enterprise never be
fore attempted in the South, and which has
proved, not only auceessfid in the Anti-Slavery
States North and West, but has received a pat
ronage in the Slave States, that had better be con
fined. though at greater - ijainso, to tho South
i cm Press.
To obviate, then, the objection, as far as we
can, to tho price of the Weekly Examiner, we
from and alter the period designated willforwaid
it to subscribers at one dollar, per annum, and
this will place it within tho roach of tha poor, as
well as the rich.
To politics, news, and literature, the Examiner
will l>c devoted.- Our position in regard to the
first is already well understood. It is unnecessa
ry, therefore, to say more than that it sustains
and will sustain, tho DEMOCRATIC ANTI
KNOW NOTHING PARTY of Georgia and
the Union, to vMSch the South can look, with
confidence, to the maintenance of her rights, and
a strict adherence to the Constitution.
The NEWS DEPARTMENT of this paper
shall Le unsurpassed by any weekly paper in the
South Atlanta occupies a position, and embra
ces facilities, for the receipt and transmission of
NEWS, unequalled in the South. Every ad
vantage will betaken ot throe, to make the EX
AMINER a valuable news paper to our farmers,
who, in tho main, subscribe for weekly pope: s
only.
The Literary and Miscellaneous Department
will also receive a large share of attent on.
During the session of our Legislature, one ol
the Editors will be prevent to report the proceed
ings of that Body, foi the Daily Examiner—these
n ports will be transferred to the weekly and each
subscriber to it, will thus have a complete history
ol the session.
A corespondent to furnish tho proceedings o!
Ccngri-ss, and a New York correspondent, havt
also been engaged. In short, every thing that
can rear -naHy be expected of a weekly paper,
will be laid before the subscribers to the Exam
iner,
A large and fine assortment of now type has
been ordered, and is now on its v-»y from New
York. We hope to receive it tn time tor oui
next week’s issue, when not only will tlie ap
pearance of our Daily and Weekly be greatly
unproved, but a large quantity of reading mattei
will be added to both.
In adventuring upon this novi enterprise —on<
so important to Georgia, and the South—tho Pro
prietor anticipates a generous support. It is the
first established paper in the State, or tho South
wifli a large circulation, that has reduced its
terms, that it may be within the reach of any man.
As such. it is hofH-d and believed that the enter
prise will prosper.
We appeal then to the people to subscribe ;
particularly do we call upon the DEMOCRACY
and ANTI-KNOW NOTHINGS, to stand by
us. Send in yonr orders, by tens and by hun
dreds, and we will send you a large, well printed
piper equal in its every department, to any week-
