Th« Vellow Fever Disappearing. It affords us sincere pleasure to notice by ear Savannah &. Augusta exchanges that the epidemic which ha3 prevailed so violently in those cities for some time pact may now be considered almost at an end. By extracts in another a *lu:n it will be ob served that there wa° no death by y ellow fever in Augusta, on Tuesday, and none in Savannah for tho three days ending on Mon day evening, tho 30th inst.. while the state of the weat her in both places indicated that but & few fore the vi would pi epidemic. The gradual abatement, of rhe fever for several days past has induced many of the absentees to return and our af- flected cities are again rapidly begining to as'uuuu their wonted appearance of business and industry. In Charleston, also, we nre glad to see that the disease is rapidly aba ting and wili, probably in 'he course of a few days, have entirely disappeared. had been turned over to j form a shelter, and several lay scattered \ about in different directions. Of thoi-e found on the island, one was supposed to j have been an officer, as he had a telescope j strapped over his shoulder and his doub.e- j barrelled gun lay underneath him. From the mutilated state of many of the ; corpses, and the contents of the kettles it is evident that our miserable countrymen had beeu driven to the last resource*—can nibalism—a* a means of prolonging life. There appears to have been an abundant stock of ammunition, as the powder was emptied in a heap on the ground by the na tives, out of the keg* or cases containing it, Hire of Knou-Xoililngl.in. The Missouri Dunocrat (Benton’s organ) attribute? the rire and spread of Know- Xothingism to the sins of the adm’nistra- tion of General Pc.xe: the ch ef of which sins, aceoidlng to the Democrat, is his pro scription of Benton and Houston. If this be the fact, it strikes us ns somewhat sin gular that one of the first and m i*t decisive victories gaineJ by the se'tct order was the defeat of Benton him e’.f. The Know- Nothings in St. Louis retorted to a strange method of avenging the wrongs which the administration had iufiic ed upon Benton when they united with the Whigs and the friends of Gene al P e.-ce to bring ab >ut the and a quantity if ball and shot wa3 found j overthrow of the arch apostate from th bc-Ow nigh water mark, naviug been left on i Democratic party.

The Griffiv Election-.—The American Union, published at Griffin, attribute * the recent defeat of the regular Whig and Dem ocrat candidates andthe election of a third person who had not been considered a can didate in the mayors election in that place, to the action of the temperauco party and not to the Know Nothings. The temper ance men mu-r have conducted their pre- lemenary operations with a good deal of se ct ecv and •*b r cwdr.o*a to have effected so striking a result. A new faction has sprung up among tho democrats of Minnesota, founded upon matters of railroad policy,and styling them selves the “Anti Fraud" party. They de nounce the passago of the Nebraska Bill, go for free homes of one hundred and sixty acve.s to actual settlers, s liberal system of education for the people, and advocate the annetment of a prohibitory liquor law. Excitement at a Political Meeting.— Gen. Cass delivered a political speech to l,f,00 persons at Chicago on the fiOth irwt. He wai listened to with great attention,but alter he sat down, some one callol for three groan * for Judge Douglass, who was also on the stand. The call wa ; hissed down, but ; cheers were given for Ohio. Pennsylvania, and Indiana. The Chicago IVilntne says : At this juncture considerable confusion j prevailed when sonic 'me called for a ■-•peech | from Frederick Douglass, (black man) who j was in the room. It was caught up and responded io, apparently, by five hundred persons. The effect was as exeitiug as if a bomb-shell had been thrown into tuc room Col. Rnowhook rushed upon the ‘-cand and blandished his fist ft’, the crowd, while Col. Hamilton declared in the most emphat ic manner, t.lia if Douglass came in the stand, lie would have him rent to the watch house. $ucli an uproar as followed we have seldom witnessed. It seemed ns if pande monium had broken loose, acid tho threat* of the Nebraskaites only made the matte- worse. Federiok Douglass had the good sense to retire, during the confusion, but the crowd did not know it. The meeting was dispersed by some ore turning off the gns. We learn that .Jacob Mercer, who was recently tried in Stewart county for the murder of Green B. Lee, has been convict ed of the offence and sentenced by J ud ge Cr * w- fORD to be hung on the 20 th day of Decem ber next. The case received the most pa tient investigation, having occupied the Court four days. |@r Mr Finney, a dent isf, late of Alex andria, Egypt, is reported to have found a atnffed tooth in a mummy, and several teeth ia other mummies which bore marke? of filling. If true, this is certainly one of the most remarkble facts which modern perse verance has yet brought to light concerning the arts of the ancients. The New York correspondent of the Char, loston Courier says: “Philander Doesticks” whose real name is Thompson, is in business in that city.

The commencement of Spring was very fine, but June and July were colder. We were unable to get out of the bay until the 6th of August.
