City Fiaamcci.
Through the attention of the City Clerk,
Mr. H. C. Holcombe, we learn that the city
taxes charged on the books for the present
year amount to 21,000. Of this amount
$17,300 have already been collected. The
uncollected portion, amounting to $3,700, is
in the hands of the city Marshals who arc
industriously urging their claims and en
deavoring to settle up the tax affairs at as
early a date as possible. In relation to the
small sums arising from other sources than
the general tax system a detailed statement
will probably appear in a few weeks.
Though it has been decided who is Got-
eruor of New York, the election excitement is by
no means over. Suits have been commenced
against tho editors of the Courier and Tribune
for libels upon Mr. Barker, the Know-Nothing
candidate for Mayor, aud the prospect is that the
matter will give bnsinoss to some of the Court?
aud many of the lawyers for mouths to come.
It is understood that the orders recently
given by the Navy Department to prepare
different vessels for sea with all possible des
patch, have nothing to do with any appre
hended difficulty; on the contrary, these ves
sels are intended to replace those which have
served out their time in our squadron in the
Chinese Seas, some of which arc already on
their way home.
The Louisville Courier says that $225/300
have been subscribed to the capital of the
Louisville and Memphis Air Lino Railroad
The amount required to organize the Com
pany is $3,300,000
The Austin Texas Gazette contains tho
letter from Governor Pease in relatiou to the
deposit by the Pacific Rail Road Company
of stock of a doubtful character in lieu of
the $300,000. The terms of rejection are
decisive and final.
The Agricultural Fair.—Our readers
must not forget, says the Augusta Sentinel
that the Fair opens in our city on Monday,
December 4. Let all who can, contribute
to its stores of useful and ornamental arti
cles, and let not the strangers who may
visit us have any grounds of complaint in
regard to proper accomodations. Our ho
tels are all in fine order, and we hojio many
private houses are prepared to entertain
friends from a distance.
Colored Know-Nothings.—In New York
colored persons, possessing property requis
ites, are allowed to vote. A Know-Nothing
Lodge of colored persons was organised in
Elmira, N. Y., last week, being the eighth
of that complexion in the State. .
The people of Knoxville will vote
ou the 2nd of December upon a proposition
to take stock for the purpose of erecting a
Telegraph Lino from Dalton to Knoxville.
This is a good move, and we hope it will
not only be successful in Knoxville, but
that tho people along the line will take the
matter up and act upon it.
Russian Recruits in Kentucky.—The
Louisville Times States that a young gentle
man of that city had been tendered a Colo
nel’s commission in the Russian army, aud
that he will probably leave the United
States about the first of February or March,
in company with several other Kentuckians,
for St. Petersburg, unloss something else
turns up nearer home.
North Carolina.—We are pleased to
learn that Hon. Davied S. Reid, the present
Governor of North Carlina has been elected,
by a majority of eleven votes, to the United
States Senate to fill the vacancy occasioned
by the expiration of ihe term of W. P. Man-
gum.
We notice by the Washington pa
pers that members of Congress are already
arriving in that city in considerable num
bers. preparatory to entering upon their du
ties at tho e ommoneement of the session on
Monday next.
Large Failure in Philadelphia.—The
Ledger says: ** The very enterprising firm
of Reeves, Buck & Co., Iron Manufacturers,
it was announced yesterday. _ had stopped
payments, their liabilities being variously
stated at from $900,000 to $1,400,000, with
assets to the amount of 53,000,000. This
firm has extensive iron works in Phoenix-
ville, in this State, and, we believe, nlso at
Bridgton, West Jersey. We have heard no
particulars as to the cause of the suspen
sion, but we presume it results from the
shock the iron business has received from
the difficulty experienced in negotiating the
millions of bonds so freclv given in pay
ment of railroad iron, With so large a
margin of assets as here shown, it would
hardly seem possible that any loss can ulti
mately ensue, or that the concern will stop
operations. A year ago the iron business
was esteemed the most prosperous in the
oountry. Now it is probably the most com
pletely prostrated.”
From our Charleston exchanges we
learn that a meeting of the Directors of the
Charleston d? Savannah Railroad was held
in that city on Saturday, at which it was
ordered that two parties be immediately or
ganized under the direction of Mr. McRae,
the Chief Engineer, with the view of com

general ea/ee in very targe. Of eon me the prices
of food, shelter, fuel, and all the necessaries of
life, mud eventually adjust themselves- to the
pressure of the times. Already provisions and
coal begin to decline, and house rent? uiu. t follow
suit when the letting season commences.
Nothing enlivening in the way of an excitement
has a? yet broken the monot-mr of the current
week. Just as* the merctrrial spirit? among ns
had worked themselves into a fever on the Soule
affair, and Young America began to " flare up ”
under tho supposed insult to our National dignity,
the flame of patriotic indignation was provokiuglv
extinguished by the news of Louis Napoleon’s
-backdown," aud we were left without a topic
capable of stirring the public pulse. M'o were
going to have a war meeting on the subject when
this damper arrived. It spoiled a grand dramatic
point, like the malicious supernumary who, to
gratify a personal spite against Kean, informed
the representative of Richard that the Duke of
Buckingham was not only taken, hut that his head
had been cut off.
Tho news from Sevastopol, received yesterday
by tho Canada, is particularly uninteresting. Be
siegers and besieged arc just where tho last previ
ous intelligence left them—at a dead lock and no
prospect of either giving way at present.
The “latest footings ” of the returns for Gov
ernor no longer excite any interest, it being uni
versally conceded that Myron H. Clark is the
Governor elect; anil a cold water majority in the'
assembly being also a fixed fact, the liquor dealers
and liquor drinkers are mournfully speculating on
their prospects under the coming dispensation.

The “ Knickerbocker Gallery,” tho first gift-
book of the season, is to be published to-day.—
This book, as I suppose you arc aware, consists of
original articles by a large number of distinguish
ed American writers, and is to be embellished with
the portraits of forty of the contributors. It is
one of tho most ingenious dodges in the benefit
way that I remember to hate heard oij and does
honor to the cuteness of Brother Clark, who, I
believe, is a Yankee, from tho Granite State.
The proceeds are to be expended in the purchase
of a farm for the editor of the Knickerbocker, and
the way in which he has tickled up the literati and
roiicd them into this scheme is really masterly.—
The volume will, however, be a gem, and well
worth its price—five dollars. Next to Barnaul's
Autobiography it will be the great hit of tho sea
son.
Apart from all other circles, and wrapped up,
as one may say. in the solitude of its own orig
inality, we have iu this city a - circle ” devoted
exclusive!) to spiritual matters. Messrs. Brittan
& Partridge, editors uud proprietors of the Spir
itual Telegraph, the Rev. Thomas L. Harris and
Judge Edinoudr are the high priests of the new
philosophy, and it is said that the number of dis
ciples in New York is about five thousand. The
reduetio ad ultm-than is carried to its ultimate in
their arguments and hypothesis, ami it is shrewdly
suspected that thuy draw upon their imaginations
for a considerable portion of their facts. Tile boss
mediums, at the evening meetings, held next door
to Grace Church, in Broadway, insist that they
have witnessed miracles to which those of the
New Testament—with the single exception of the
raising of Lazarus—are small affairs : but it is a
singular fact (hat in their more marvellous state
ments these medium-* arc only corroborated by
each other. I have not been able to find one
“outsider” who has seen chair.-and tables spon
taneously mount into the air. or has been himself
lifted from the floor, and suspended iu tho atmos
phere like it balloon, as these favored individuals
claim to have been at sundry time? and places.—
All the phenomena arc not. however, referable to
hallucination. I have myself seen a table move
nearly a foot along the floor of my ow n parlor
when there was no individual within les- than ten
l’eet of it. and no power employed upon it except
the will or wish of a person present. Yet I have

nteraplated an important
rising in the course of a few days. The
same paper also publishes a bold and ener

professes to have received advice* by a pre
vious arrival, which it states thus.
“Our correspondent in Havana, than
whome no man on the island is better in
formed, feels certain that the day for the In
dependence of Cuba is rapidly apprbehine.
He is sure that the diseaffeetton to the gov
ernment is now far greater than ever before
and that the Creoles have very generally of
late managed to procure effective arms,
while a Critical examination of the govern
ment’s means of defence, made by the chiefs
of the patriot organization, has satisfied
them that their plans mast succeed. We
shall certainly not be suprised at any time
within the next three months to hear of* rev
olution there, and that the revolutionist* hold
all the island except a few fortified positions,
long enough to make armed emigration frotft
the Unted States to Cuba a lawful procedure,
the emigrants taking the chance* of a cap
ture on the way.”
Arrest of Kidnappers in* Kentucky—
Great Excitement and Important Disclo
sures—It has been discovered that a gang
of villians has been organized for some time
in Kentucky, who obtain their livelihood by
stealing free negrose in Ohio and selling
them into slavery. A letter from May sville,
Kentucky, to the Frankfort Yeoman, says:
“Kidnapping free negroes in Ohio and
deluding our slaves from their masters to
recapture and sell them, is an estblished
profession of a gang located upon the bor
ders of the Ohio, combining with negro tra
ders in the interior of this State, thereby
boldly conducting a villainous system of pri-
aey heretofore unknown in the annals of
crime in Kentucky
“On Friday morning this community was
apprised of the fact, through the agency of
colored persons, that a free negro girl was
forcibly taken from Ohio and brought to Ken
tucky. Suspision on the statements of the
negroes (which is not veidence in Kentucky)
proved that Lewis, Allen, and Henry Young,
of this county, were the individuals in whose
possession the girl was found.
“Arrests were made, our best and promi
nent citizens turning out to capture the
rogues. Lewis and Allen Young were forci
bly taken by the people from prison and
delivered to the autonties of Ohio, where
they) will be disposed of as the aggravating
merits of this case deserve. Henry Young
is detained for trial on this side. Thus this
suffering community is to be rid of three
brothers whose bold career of crime was a
terror to the peace and safety of the public.
“Lewis ,and Henry Young openly boast
of their detirmination to burn the city.
They confess it to be their source of live
lihood to steal a free negro or to decoy oar
slaves and sell*them to negro traders.* The
city council met on Monday morning, and
ordered a meeting of the people to protect
their rights and property, for within five
days the city has been fired in various
portions of the town, and the alarm bell
ropes cut; in the mean time seven or eight
of our slaves were missing. The town
meeting called by the council was presided
over by the Mayor, resolutions were adopt
ed, and committees of vigilance appointed.
Startling disclosures have been made re
garding the late terrible powder explosion,
with other acts of violence, known in the
calendar of unhappy events in Maysville.”
Tbe President’* Message Foreshadowed
The well informed Washington correspon
dent of the Philadelphia Ledger, thus sup
plies an outline of the topics of the Presi
dent’s forthcoming Message:
The Secretary of the Navy, who has cer
tainly introduced order, and efficiency in
that most important department charged
with our national defence, will recommend
a further increase in the Navy. Contracts
have been entered into for the engines to be
put on board of the six additional steam fri
gates for which appropriations were made
at the last session. The engines must be
| ready on, or previous to, the first of October
j next, when the building of the ships will
! have sufficiently progressed to receive the
i engines on boara. Should the engines be
J not ready at that time, the contractors will
forfeit large sums of money. Tbe first ship,
it is expected, will be ready in Boston ; but
all of them will be launched in the course
of the year 1855. The increase of the navy,
contemplated by the Secretary, is over and
Chattanooga and Nashville will lie compli

has been chartered to convey troops to the
Crimea.
Intense anxiety prevails throughout Eng
land aud Franee in reference to the uncer
tain and critical condition of their armies
at Sebastopol. It is evident that there are
fearful apprehensions as to their ultimate
fate. There are many who think the allies
are in a very critical position, and that a
serious repulse or total defeat may befall
them.
RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA.
It is now stated that Russia has signified
her willingness to treat with Austria on the
basis of the four conditions. This, howev
er, it is believed, is only intended to sever
Austria from the Western powers.
Affairs between Austria and Russia re
main about as at previous accounts. Tbe
Czar has made no concessions and will not
move from his former position. No move
ment of active hostilities, however, 1ms tak-
eu place.
THE DANUBE—ASIA.
Affairs on the Danube and in Asia were
without much interest, Omar Pasha was
preparing to give the enemy battle at the
first opportunity.
HUNGARY AND POLAND.
The accounts from Hungary represent the
people there as ripe and anxious for rebel
lion. They are impatient to join the'allies
ngainst Russia.
Poland was also much agitated and anx
ious to unite with the allies.

The Yrhmic Tribunals.
We read in Galignani: Although most
minute researches have been made at dif
ferent times respecting the terrible Yehmic
or secret tribunals, which flourished in Ger
many in the middle ages, no records of their
proceedings, nor any of the instruments
which they employed in putting to death
the victims whom they condemned, have
yet been discovered. This lias been ascrib
ed to the fact that they were accustomed to
hold their sittings in caves and in the midst
of forests, on mountains, and that they
did not deem it prudent to have recourse to
writing. The remains of one of these
strange tribunals have at length, however,
been discovered. M. de Mayenfisch, mar
shal of the court of the Prince of Hohen-
zollern Sigmaringen, fancied that he per
ceived in the wall of one of the galleries of
a museum of rare aud curious arms, the
trace of a secret covered with plaster. lie
caused the plaster, which was very thick,
to be removed, and discovered a wooden
door. The door was removed, aud behind
it was found one in iron, fastened with four
enormous locks. With great difficulty the
locks were opened, and a subterranean pas
sage. of a rapid descent, was seen. M. de
Mayenfisch, accompanied by the employees
of the museum, entered with torches, aud
after walking upwards of three hundred
yards, found that the passage was entirely
blocked up with rubbish. The rubbish was
removed—there were not fewer than 68
cart loads of it. Then a vast saloon was
open. On the walls at certain distances
were wooden figures clumsily executed, of
the Holy Virgin and St. John, the Baptist,
together with a number of crucifixes. Be
tween these objects were instruments of
torture, such as heavy chains, pincers, poig-
nards, iron rings, and a sort of cap in iron
with sharp points, designated apparently to
be put on tbe head. In tho middle of" the
place was a large stone slab or table, and
around it were ten stone seats. On the ta
ble was a hammer, five balls in black v ood,
and a copper plate—at the bottom of which
were in ba? relief a crucifix, the Holy Vir
gin and St. John the Baptist. On the table
also was the iron seal of the Saint Yehme.
This seal it was which more than anything
else proved the purpose fur which tho cavern
had been employed. The hammer was
probably that with which the initiated
were accustomed to strike three times on
the doors of the persons whom they were
charged to summon before the secret tribu
nal : the plate and balls were probably em
ployed in voting—four vote? being sufficient
to cause a condemnation to death—the only
punishment the Saint Vehme was accus
tomed to inflict. It is on record that in the
principality of Sigmaringem the last Yehm
ic court was held in 1417, under the presi
dency of Duke Ulric of Wurtumburg.—
Some time after, when the two Counts of
Zolleru, who had been cited before a secret
tribunal, possessed themselves of the coun
try, they abolished the secret jurisdiction,
and caused the place in which it had been
accustomed to hold its sittings to be fastened
up. It is very likely that this place is that
which has just been discovered.

A despatch from Boston, dated tlie 35th
inst., says:
The steamship Canada reached her dock
at half-past 8 o’clock this morning. Her
mail? were brought up last night "by the
Neptune, and forwarded iu the 9 o’clock
train for New York, where they will he due
at 5 o’clock this afternoon.
The Canada had her figure head and bow
sprit carried away, and her cutwater and
how somewhat injured: but in every other
respect she shows no sign of her collision
I with the steamer Ocean last night.
The Ocean in going down the Bay, with
the Forest City and Boston in company,
seems to have been compelled, bv the prox
imity of these boat?, to attempt to cross tlie
Canada’s bows.
Tho concussion caused great consterna
tion on hoard the Ocean, which was increas
ed by the flames bursting out from the in
setting of the stoves, and many of the pas
sengers leaped overboard.
The Canada promptly backed water, but
was so close to the Ocean that the collision
was unavoidable, and a large hole was
knocked iu the Ocean’s side, abaft the wheel
house.
Boats from the Canada, Forest City,
Boston, ship Westward Ho and other? im
mediately put oft' to the rescue, and so fin
as known all the passengers, except the
three before reported drowned, were saved.
The dead have not yet been indentified.
Tlie man is about 30 years old, the woman
35 and the girl 6. They jumped overboard
at the time of the collision. It is thought
the wounded will all recover.
The Boston, with many of the rescued
passengers on board, anchored below Ia?t
night, and all the passengers returned m
the city this morning.
The Ocean was a side wheel steamer,
with wide guards, and
well appointed and

She was of 60U or 700 tuns burthen,
about four years old, and owned by Unite

The United States Senate.—Twenty-
seven Democrats have been elected or hold
over in the next United States Senate. The
legislatures of South Carolina, Florida, Ala-
barn, Louisiana, Arkansas and North Can -
lina, are democratic, and will send seven
democrats more from those State?, there
being two to be chosen from North Carolina,
making thirty-four democrats certain out of
sixty-two members, all of whom except four
were in favor of the Nebraska bill, and, ir
is believed, will be against any attempt to
disturb it. The opposition have eighteen
members elected. Iu addition, they have
the controle of the legislatures in lows,
Indiana, Illinois, Pensylvania, Wisconsin,
and New York, and may elect six Senator-
in those States, increasing their force intlie
Senate to twenty-four. The New Hampshire
legislature, which will have to elect two
Senators, is yet to be chosen. The Senator
from Missouri is doubtful, and so is the Sen
ator from California. It will be seen, there
fore, that the Democrats will have a work-
ing majority iu the Senate in the session of
1855-56. The House will be largely in op
position to the Administration.
