From the Carolina Times. SAVAxNA, GA., June 15, 1857. Genlemen: I have just seen, copied from your paper into the Barnwell Sentinel, a letter. from a gentleman in Kansas, who after speak ing of Col. Orr's visit, and matters, asks what d' ition will be made of the funds raised by Baer and Treadwell. The most satisfactory answer which I can give to this inquiry, will be found in the enclos ed communication, under which I act and which I beg, therefore, you will do me the favor to pub lish. The opening portion also, will successful ly refute the assertion which occasionally reaches us from some Northern quarters, that Atchison and Stringfellow have given up the struggle for slavery, and now contend only for Democracy. Neither Col. Treadwell, nor myself have had personally, anything to do with the disposition of the funds which have been raised. With the exception of a portion of the amount subscrib ed in Columbia, retained.to defray travelling ex penses, and to be hereafter accounted for, I have thought it wisest for many reasons, not to receive the funds at all, nor allow them to pass through my hands; but have imposed upon the chairmen, of the various meetings, the duty of making the collections and remitting them di rectly to Gen. Atchison, the President of the Executive Committee, in checks payable to the Treasurer of the same, Mr. Russell. I prefer red that the money should pass directly into the hands of those men of exalted character and well tried fidelity, to the.South especial ly, entrusted by our party in the Territory with the responsible duty of executing their plans, and providing for the general good of the cause, and whose name is a sufficient guarantee to the whole country, of the faithful application . to proper urposes of whatever money the gen erous outh might place in their hands. I am gratified at your proposal to do some thing in aid of Col. Clarkson especially. It is an act of justice in which I desire to participate, and I beg you will accept for that purpose the enclosed small amount. I have heard of his generous and unselfish devotion to our cause, and of his kindness to our boys. We ought not to let him suffer for it. As is well said in my commission-" We ought not only to feel but to act as if feeling a moral obligation to see that such real friends suffer no ruin from their zeal and generous confidence.". There are many of our noble friends in the far North West who have suffered similarly in their gallant efforts to defend the South and sustain her suffering emi grants. I trust the country will not forget them, will not consent to leave them only " mementoes of ingratitude." I do hope and I do believe, that the wealthy and powerful South will so lib erally respond to their appeal as to enable the Executive Committee not only to provide for the more pressing exigencies that first demand attention, but to do something also towards averting that ruin, and repairing in some meas ure those disasters which many of our boldest and most gallant partizans there have sustained in their glorious and hitherto successful struggle to defend our common rights. Very truly, your ob't. serv't., ALPHEUS BAKER, Ja. Editors Carolina Times, Columbia, S. C. LEAVEXWORTH CITY, K. T., February 17, 1857. To the people of the South and to the Conserva tives of both Sections of the Union. Believing that the very existence of the South ern people, and that the progress, glory, and power of our common Union depend on main taining the present relations of the white and black races among us; and being further fully pursuaded that these relations cannot be secure, or permanent in Missouri, nor indeed, in any other State, unless they are established in Kan sas ; which from its geographical position, the face of the country, its soil, climate and pro ductions, is a natural boundary and indispensa ble appendage, and outpost of our institutions, we have hitherto unceasingly, labored to that end. We grieve to say that in the toil and sac rifices we have undergone for the common good of our section, nay for the common good of our whole nation, we have hitherto not been encour aged and sustained to an extent commensurate with our expectations. It is, however not yet too late for the friends of our cause to retrieve the delays of the past. It is known to the coun try that last year our party constituted the undcr signed an executive Committee to raise funds and provide for the general good of the cause. The events of the past summer involved serious expenditures, both of time and money, which, in our reliance on their generous efithusiasm, we had expected would be met by contributions from our Southern brethren ; at least we had confidently hoped that a fair proportion of the means, for the money expenses, would be sup plied from that source. C are for the ultimate success of the cause demands that we frankly advise our friends, that these hopes have not been realized. Guder the circumstances above alluded to, your committec (over and above the amount realized and expended- by thcm) contracted an indebtedness (to be paid out of expected contri butions) amounting in the aggregate to near forty thousand dollars. This sum is still due, and -owing to sundry generous, and zealous members of our party-most of whom are poor, and are now sernously embarrassed by credits -and advances they afforded, only from motiv-es of devotion to the common cause-to our cause -to your cause. Whether the future may bring its like exigencies or not, it is certain that every one who truly sympathizes in our aims, ought not only to feel, but ought to act as if feeling a moral obligation to see that such real friends suffer no ruin from their zeal and gen erous confidence; and should the future (as pro bably it may) bring similar exigencies and wants, then surely a wise policy demands that there be left no such souvenirs and mementoes of South ern apathy-or ingratitude. The Territorial legislature, now, in session, it is.understood, will pass an act to hold a Convention in September next, for the purpose of framing a State Consti tution, and applying for admission into the Union: the election for delegates to which the bill proposes to happen in June next. - Could all our partisans who have been driven from their homes be brought back, we have no fears of the result of tint election. Since, however, then, crops have been destroyed, and many of their houses burnt, and most of them are with out means, it is not probable they will return in time, unless under a reasonable expectation that a present subsistence will be supphed them on credit, or some other guaranty be provided against their families coming to'suffer. This being done, we shall not lack for num bers ; lbut this failing, all is lost. And should the bill not pass, or the application for admis sion be rejected for the present ; sooner or later, the time must come when we shall need their homesteads in the territory to be occupied by our partizans rather than those 'of the adverse parts-. And the former must come soon or the latter will step in before them, and they will be too late. In short, we need now both friends and immigrants: and for both of which our zeal urges the undersigned to make you this last appeal, trusting it will not be in vain. We have commissioned our distinguished and eloqucnt young friend, Alpheus Baker, Jr., or Alabama, to lay these matters before you to collect and remit funds to our treasurer, and to arouse a spirit of immigration to strengthen our numbers. Mr. B. is fully advised as to our policy and the exigencies of our cause. We have the highest assurance of his zeal, integrity, and re sponsibility, and commend him to your sympa thy and confidence. With sentiments of pro found respect, your obedient servants and Broth ers in a common cause, (Signed) D. R. ATenIsoN. B. F. STRINOFELLow. Wss. H. RUSSEL,. J. BUroRD,. A. G. Booan. IMPoRTANT FROM MexsCo.-It 'appears from our California files that there is some serious ap prehension that the communication will be cut off between Acapulco and the city of Mexico. The Indians, numbering from 4,000 to 5,000, have revolted near Chilpancingo and have defeated the fusiliers of the government and killed the - prefect of the district. The cause of the out'>reaks is that their priest, who has been preaching insurrection from the pulpit, has been arrested, and is now in prison at Acapulco. Old Gen. Al varez has just left Providencia with his Indians to subdue the belligerents ; ifhedoes not succeed, the communication will be very soon cut off be twen A&eapnlco and the capital. LEAVENWORTE, IN KANSAS.-We have bee shown, by a friend and neighbor, sa the Ne C rleans Picayune, a letter received, by him fro a gentleman in Leavenworth city, Kansas' Te ritory, fronr-which we make an interesting e: tract: " This is the biggest two-year old, in the wa of a town, I have ever seen. The city, so calle contains a population of four or five thousan containing among other things, "too numerou to mention," four large hotels, (all crowded three banks, three steam mills, &c. The imr gration is pouring in rapidly from all quarter and things are pretty quiet in the political line Ax Oi.D INFIDEL.-The Hon. Joshua R. Gi dings has written a characteristic letter to th Tribune, in which he says that the " God c Abraham" is not his God; that he despises hii and holds him in contempt; that he is an idc or the deity of the slave holders, and they ai right in worshipping him. He (Giddings) don worship nor believe in the God of the Bible, bi has one of his own-that is, an anti-slavery Gc -a nigger, we suppose, or some hedeous cre: ture wZo thinks at pillage and theft. Seriousi; though, is it not disgraceful that a widely cire lated newspaper should give currency to this ol driveller's blasphemy ?-Kneo ork Day BooA GRAssHOPPERS IN MINNESTA.-The St. At thony (Min.) Express speaks of the ravages of t grasshoppers in that region as follows: "The reoion arotInd Monticello is literally aliv with grasagoppers. Never in our life did we se so many of these troublesome and destructive it sects. They crackled under one's feet like bri tle shells. There was no such thing as avoidin them; whichever way one looked or went the were manifesting themselves. Though not ye half grown, they are already doing immense dan age, and unless they speedily emigrate must dc our every thing green in Wright county." To DEsTRao FMEs.-To one pint of milk ad a quarter of a pound of raw sugar, and tw ounces of ground pepper; simmer them togeth< for eight or ten minutes, and place it about i shallow dishes. The flies attact it greedily, and in a few mi ments are suffocated. By this method, kitchen &c., may be kept clear of flies all summer, witl out the danger attending poison. THE TRAVELLER'S MED1CINE.-The followin excellent recipe will be found convenient f< travellers and others, exposed to the intestinn irritation that usually follows a change of die and a change of water: " Tincture of camphor, an ounce and a hal tincture of capsicum, half an ounce, compoun spirits of lavender, one ounce. Mix and take f< an adult, twenty to forty drops at a dose-acco ding to circumstances-several times a day necessary, to allay the irritation. It is said that Mr. Dallas has been applied t by several very distinguished men in London, b know something of the Rackensack University < Arkansas, as they had been informed that tb honorarydegree of L. L. D. had been conferre upon them, and they had remitted the initatio fee of ?2. Some wags in Rackensak, no doub have been amusing themselves. The Texas Pioneer says that the crops in the county are in fine growing condition. A larg crop of corn, and a fair crop of wheat will b gathered. Cotton is doing well. It snowed at Fountain City, Wis., on the 16t: of June, sufficient to whiten the tops of the steam boats. --'.....--- - The Fincastle (Va) Whig says that the weathe in that section, particularly after reight, has bee1 uite cold for several days past, and there wer several pretty heavy frost at the Sweet Spring uring the past week.

PI'Ena DAvis & Sos-GENrs :-A mor chat of Linnoens, in this State, informs me that re ently one of his sons wvas severely bitten on theclej by a rattlesnake, from the effects which he sufferro< most dreadfully. The family chancing to have som< of Perry Davis' Pain Killer in the house immediatela ommenced bathing the bitten place, without knowinj whether it would or not afford theoleast relief, but sur prising as it may seem, the poison was soon observoi to eude from the wound, and in five or ten minute the young man fcll fast asleep, entirely free from paic or any effect from the bite, except the lesh wound which healed very soon. By giving publicity to thi fact in your pamphlet designed for. southern and wes tern distribution, and such countries as poisonou reptiles more or less abound in, it might serve the caus of humanity, and be the means of supplying an arti :e, the want of which has long been experienced.
