From tlie Baltimore Sun. Thirty-First Congress?1st Session. Washington, July 27, 1850. Senate.?Mr. Davis, of Massachusetts, presented the credentials of the Hon. Thomas E\viog, appointed by the Governor of Ohio to till the vacancy' occasioned by the resignation of the Hon. Thomas Corwiu. Mr. Ewing having been duly qualified, took his seat On motion by Mr. Sebastian, Ordered, That Lemuel II. Lincoln have leave to withdraw his papers from the files of the Senate. Mr. Douglas, in pursuance of notice, introdu ced the following resolution : Resolved, That the following he and is adopted as a standing rule of the Senate: That the "previous question" shall be admitted when demanded by a majority of the members of the Senate present; and its effect shall be to put an end to all debate, and bring the Senate to a direct vote. A message was received from the House of Representatives, by the Clerk, announcing the death of the Hon. Daniel P. King, a member of the House from the State of Massachusetts, j and the proceedings had thereon. air. Davis, of Massachusetts, delivered a eulogy on the deceased; and, *after passiitg the customary resolutions, the Senate adjourned. An Indian Waiv Bkewinc.?The Van Purer; (Ark.) Intelligencer of the 6th inst. says: that on the 16th ult. a party of Chtfrokees and Creeks, numbering eighty warriors, armed and equipped for the occasion, marched upon Wee woka, in the Seminole country, on the ixorui Fork of the Canadian, with the view of attacking a-negro town where there were over a hundred able bodied men, and taking a number of said negroes, alleged to be slaves of certain Creeks and citizens of Arkansas.- It seems the party of Indians camped some ten or twelve miles from the negro town, intending to go the next night and charge upon it. The news of their arrival reached the negroes and they armed themselves and sent word of defiance to the # Creeks, and the next day a party of Seininoles, all stript and painted appeared 011 the opposite batik of the creek, who sent a banter for a fight. Upon these beligereut demonstrations, they concluded to come to a parley. When last heard from, the head chiefs of the Upper Towns (Creeks)had repaired to the scene of difficulty, ami with the chiefs of the Semilioles were waiting for the arrival of Col. Duval, the Seminole agent, to go into couucil. This negro town is a den of runaway slaves where every negro who can make his escape from Louisiana and Arkansas is harbored. It should be broken up by the military; some day, says lite Intelligencer, it will be the cause of serious troubles between the different tribes and the Seininoles, as well as between the citizens of Arkansas and that tribe. FEELING AT THE NORTH. , The editor of tho Petersburg Daily News, in some remarks to his neighbor-of the Intelligencer, expresses his utter want of faith in any of t!ieS?or\()! Ha^vffeutly kuows something about it. He says: "'ilm difference between the editor of the Intelligencer and ourselves is simplv a matter of faith. He expects justice from tho Northern people on the slavery question. We do not, We have not been unattentive observers of the j course of the Northern people on this question j for many years 1 ack.

The sacred desk is profaned day after day by fanatical teachings of enemies of our institutions. The merchant who is all smiles to you at his counting-room, when he leaves there at night goes home to ponder over the frantic exhortations of the 'Independent' or the 'Liberator.' Our people have been imposed upon by representations that the number of this class is very few. The reverse is the case. The number of those who are for us is very few."

It is called the Sea Cow, and was captured by Mr. Clark fn St. Luce's Sound, South Florida, where they are often seen. The specimen is a bull?the mat# of it having been killed in the capture. Ris about ten feet long, with ahead not unlike vlrat of;i cow, very small eyes, teeth in shape and position like those of a cow. It has on the breast two flappers, something like a 1 urtle's, hut armed w ith nails. The tail is fan shaped, tin* skin smooth and of a lead color, and very thick. The flesh is eatable, and is said to taste like beef: its vital organization, except in having tiro hearts approaches that of the Cow.

East ']V.\np.s?nr: and Grorgia Railroad. ?We had the pleasure yesterday of a few iniu tites conversation with the agent lor tne Mate of Tennesee, Dr. J. G. M. Ramsay, who passed through Charleston on his way North, for the purpose of purchasing the iron and equipments for the Tennessee and Georgia Railroad. We learn from the Doctor that forty miles of the Road, extending from Dalton to Calhoun, on the lliwasses River, are nearly ready for the iron, and it confidently expected that the cars will be in motion on or before the first of January next. Within the year 1851 the rails will be laid on fortv miles more which nro nlrendv rrrniled and prepared for the timber. This brings it up to the Tennessee River.?Jb. HbaIWIXO TilK I.ION IN Ills Dk\.?TllC Boston Traveller notices as a fact that cotton goods made by the Tuscaloosa Manufacturing Company of Scottsville, Alabama, are now sold in the cotton market. This is a sign of the times not without its interest. It denotes that cotton spinning has already been brought to such perfection at the South that she can com pete with the manutacturers,of the East for the supply of their own especial markets. At present the remark doubtless applies to only the coarser descriptions of merchandise. But all experience has proved that, whore success has attended the manufacture of those, that of the finer fabrics was sure to follow in due season. In noticing the establishment of a new factory in Georgia, some time since, the Augusta Chronicle took the occasion to remark that the day was not far distant when that State would be able to spin every bag of cotton raised within its limits. To do so, it said, would require only eight or ten times as many spindles as are now in operation in the State. OTTO CAMDEN. S. C. FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 2, 1850. PUBLIC MEETING. AT the request of many Ci? izens a Public Meeting will be held on Saturday the 3rd day of August next, at 11 o'clock, at the Couit House, to adopt measures necessary for building a Plank Road to the Nprth Carolina line, JAMES DUNLAP,. Intendant T, C, JjgT" To-morrow is the Plank Road'meeting. ?57" With pleasure, we will comply with "A Subscriber's" request. u To arms?To Arms, Let the Welkin Ring." It will be seen by the telegraphic reports that the probability of the Clay compromise bill passing, is increased. What, we ask and we put the question home, to the South, are you prepaied to do ? What are you determined to do ? Will you yield ? If so, pay it at once?bend your necss to the yoke?bare yourselves to the lash?and let no single brave effort win that shade of respect which might make the world mourn your fall. But that is not a supposable case. The South will never yield. Embodied in that Bill is enough to degrade and unequalize her lorever; and the South cannot submit to that. But where is our Lexington ? The deep policy of the North evades the high and noble acts (speaking comparatively) that gave us a Concord. They have 110 Pitcairu. In the absence of this, shall we allow them to accomplish a worse object, and stand by and say "they have spilled no bLood yet." Where are the spirits of old ftlecklenburg! Every day we are idle we " are fiddling while Rome is burning." JSP" It is the Patriots of every age and nation who live not only on the records of their country's archives, but in the hearts of their couutrymen. The aspirant for fame may for awhile dazzle the eyes of the giddy multitude, but it is the name of the patriot that Mothers teach their babes to lisp, and Fathers teach their sons to revere. And who are the Patriots? Leonidas, Washington, Kossuth, are dazzling examples. ' They were Patriots ' unit tagaytt&mny "wronj^." Persia wished to enforce a certain supremacy over Sparta, and Leonidas met them and perished at Thermopylae A simple tax was requested by Great Britain from the Colonies, and the fires of Lexington electrified the heroes of'76. The Austrian powers have exerted the will of a majority over Hungary, and Kossuth has battled nobly, though vainly, for Hungarian Rights. Yet the wrongs of all of these embodied in one would fall into insignificance, compared with the aggressions of the North upon the South. Have we Patriots in the South? Why then are their voices not heard ? Why do their swords not glitter in the sunlight ? Why does not the Banner of Southern Rights float with the bright inscription, "We raust have the stars?or you must have the stripes."? Let the passage of the Compromise Bill be our Lexington. Let us have a Bunker Hill about Bah timore. Fort Moultrie yet stands?and long ere seven years have passed we mav locate our Yorktown. Let the Patriots of the South arise. No longer fondly dream of security?until now they have said, "give U6 all up, just to save the ' glorious Union,' don't resist our aggression it might cause a dissolution"?but now they begin to mix the hoarse threatenings of "troops," "regular army," "the navy," if we do not yield. Let him who most admires the character of Washington be the first to draw his sword?to demand all our rights, and enforce our demand at the point of the bayonet. The Mayoralty of Charleston. Several gentlemen have been put in nomination for this honorable position by their respective friends in the city of Charleston,'to-wit: <3en. John Schnierle, cx-mayor, Dr. John B. Irving, Maj. Edward Manigault and George N. Reynolds, jr. Esq. The present incumbent, the Hon. T. L. Hutchinson, declines a re-election. Hon. R. B. Rhett. The Mobile Herald says: "It may not be known that this gentleman is descended, on the paternal side, from an ancestor of the late John Quincy Adams, on the maternal side. A correspondent informs us that the family name of Mr. Rhett is Smith, and the mother of Mr. Adams bore that name. Two brothers emigrated to the U S. The one fixed his abode in Massachusetts, the other in South Carolina. These were the ancestors of Messrs. Adams and Rhett." From Tennessee, Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and Florida, we hear of public mt;t;iiij?n Luiiufniiui)^ iuu v^uiii|uuiiusc cinu cnuuising the Nashville Convention, and new delegates being elected from counties before unrepresented, to the next session of the Convention. Dr. Samuel Henry Dickson. This distinguished gentleman has returned to Charleston, his native city, where he intends permanently to reside. His return is hailed by demonstrations of rejoicing. A dinner is to be given him on Tuesday next, by the members of the medical profession of the City and Neck, who are desirous of congratulating him upon his return araong them. Editorial Change. B. Garden Pringle, Estj.' has retired from the editorial charger of the Charleston Evening News. His place has been supplied by the Hon. B. F. Porter, whose reputation as a finished writer, assures us that the News will lose nothing by the change, but will continue to be one of the best edited papers ol the day. Judge Porter is a gentleman of distinguished ability, uamiable and accom. plished; a genuine patriot, and true hearted Southerner." Mr. Cardpzb will remain as associate editor of the News. Served him Right. We see that Senator Foote, who is styled a "great compromiser,'' has incurred the just indignation at least of some of his constituents. At a recent large meeting of the citizens of Harrison county, the following, among other resolutions, was passed:? "Resolved, That we have viewed with extreme regret, the course pursued by the Hon. H. Stuart Foote, one of the Senators in Congress from this State, in the support and sanction he has afTorded to the bill called the compromise bill, as reported by the committee ofthirteen; that in giving said measure his-suppprt. as he has done, he has aided in tarrying into effect the very mea^ ure against jthipli lhe slaxeholdiug states have so loudly rei mbnstiated, and jp}?ugrossly misrepresented the wishes and intereists'of his constituents. In view, ! therefore, of the ^reat interests at stake, and the | imminent peril in which the interests of our State and of the Union is involved, we do hereby invite the 6aid Foote to''resign the seat he now holds in the Senate of the United States, and hope that similar resolutions may be passed in every county "in the State." ' The South United. The Washington Correspondent of the Charleston Mercury writes: The recent indications in the Southern States have greatly strengthened the hands of the true friends of the Soutnun Congress, and some whose disposition heretofore has been somewhat equivocal, have been induced by the unmistakeable evidences of public opinion at home, to take a much more decided and bolder position. This has not been without its effect on our opponents, and many of them are beginning to calculate the probable cost of a persistance in their aggressive policy. In fact, were it not for the supposed divisions, and consequent weakness of the South, this would be promptly abandoned. Union and harmony at home will in the end secure us our rights. The Compromise. It will be seen by reference to our telegraphic correspondence, that two important votes were taken Tuesday, on Mr. Clay's bill. But we by no means assent to the conclusion of our correspondent that its fate is settled. There are several Senators who still linger in the hope ofeuch amend ments as will allow them to vote for the bill, but who, we think, would not assimtto it in its present shape. These, Wbu Id, of course, vote against laying it on the table. There will be another effort made to restrict the boundary of California. -* ' / Mtrcury. mm*, TWj jl I.. ? The following amendment to the Compromise Bill, offered by Mr. Bradbury, of Maine, it will be seen, has passed the Senate by a majority of two votes:? "Strike out all. after the enacting clause in section 39, and insert in lieu thereof as follows: "That the President of the.United States, be, and he hereby is authorized, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to appoint three commissioners, who shall have power to agree with such commissioners as may be appointed under the legislative authority of the State of Texas, upon a line of boundary between the territory of the United States and the said State of Texas commencing at the point where the Red river is intersected by the hundredth degree of west longitude, being the southwest angle of the Indian territory, and running to a point on the Rio Grand, to Jie agreed upon by the said commissioners; and also to agree upon the terms, conditions and considerations upon which such line shall be established, and the proceedings and agreements of the said commissioners shall be as soon as possible, transmitted to the President of the United States, to be by him submitted to Congress, Avith such recommendations as the circumstances, in his opinion, may require, for the aunroval and action of Coneress there ri ? vj upon; and the said agreement, when approved by the Congress of the United States, and the Legislature of the State of Texas, shall be obligatory upon the parties." Prof. Hopton.?Being forcibly reminded of this gentleman by the conflagration of his property night before last,* we again thought of a duty which we had almost entirely neglected?which was, to announce his election to the Chair of Chemistry in tbe Medical Department of the Uhlvfcffeity of Missouri.

And as "Aurora, fair daughter of the dawn, Sprinkled with rosy light the dewy lawn," a lone wanderer trom the land of Bruce and Burns, took his stand on a green bluff, and with pleasing wonder at two conjoining streams whose waters refused to mingle. One, as if - ? f 1 ~ ltnnf.1,,0,1 AM linf \IM nrl _ conscious oi superiority, uasirucu uu un " 1IIV4 ing way, disdaining even a word or look. The other moved jiertsively by, and thus addressed the subject of his affection: '',Why this coldnes? For many days and nights I have been journeying to meet thee, and, after all, am I to be despised and forsaken?" The haughty one replied, "The hill from which 1 gushed is hedged with green bowers, decked with honeysuckles, crowned with ancient oaks, and pavillioned with golden clouds. I have meandered through gay meadows,smiling fields,and groves where angels and men hold converse. As I travelled on, the dews gemmed my bosom, the showers laid their tribute at iny feet, the birds serenaded me, the zephyrs fanned me, the lilly and the violet sipped nectar fro.in my- lips, and the azure queen, with her maids of honor, used me for a looking-glass. I am on mv way to the realms of Neptune, where I may find com panionship worthy my birth and fortune " On ? on glided the brooks, side by side they walked the pebbly pavement. And now the scornful one gave herself to reflection Thought she?"if I wend my way to the seas 'lonely and alone,' the sunbeams will waste me, the cavern will engulf me, the dike will obstruct my path; or some tawney giant, from ClaylnntfT will throw his polluted arms around ine. Better grant the suit of this plebian wooer, and instantly she rushed into his arms, esteeming him, but the more for the lowliness of his lot" Scotia's son, transported with the scene, spoke the following words in his own dialect: " Fair daughter of the woods," Thou dost illustrate the conduct of many of Adam's children. Oft times have I beheld the blushing virgin in x L iL. ner re<Ml8, as sne wrung iue uuai i. 01 an imao* suming, but worthy son of a rustic sire, priding herself on the grace of her form, the bloom of her cheek, and'the brightness of her eye, like Bun-set gloriefc whwi the da^is past.* But after a few lonely years, she has seen loveliness in sobriety, beauty in integrity; and has rejoiced to bind the heart she broke. I have seen the opulent young man, richly clad and profusely jewelled, as he looked through the smoke of his cigar, and sneered at the farmer in his field. But ere five score months have sped, that same young man has stood a haggard, tattered, trembling suppliant at the door of liitn he spurned. 1 have looked upon the impenitent sinner as he turned, with sarcastic mien from the earnest entreaties of the man of God. This was when trees budded and vernal odors were breathed forth by garden and landscape. After a few waxings and waning? of the moon, when the forest was shorn and the fields were gleaned, I have seen this same man languishing in his last sickness, with that once despised minister of the gospel kneeling in prayer at his bedside." A. G. Charleston, S. C. *One of the chief towns in North Carolina was originally called Cross Creek, from the fact that it was situated at the junction of two creeks whose waters flowed across each other. After a short distance,however,they united, formingone stream The place was settled by the Scotch. For the Camden Journal- . MILITARY FAME. Military fame is popular. Perhaps no species of renown is attended with greater eclat and more general enthusiasm. Whatever associates itself with the name and fame of a people must he popular. A high criterion may be observed us adopted standards of mental worth; elevated and pure may be the literature of " a country, yet the all-absorbing interest in the "circumstances of glorious war" seem evor to nervadeand influence the of public mind. Scarce. jy more than two circuits of the earth on her axis have intervened since even as earnest if not so eloquent apostrophies to the endeared scenes of the battle field, have been poured forth, as ever broke from the sorrow stricken spirit of the Moor in his pathetic adieu to a departed occupation. Wherever the chivalric emotions are awakened and high souled valor bursts forth in its original purity, there the acclamations of an enthusiastic populace go up, and the loud huzzas which rung upon the dying spirit of Botzarris, proclaim " the red field to be won." I know they are the shouts often of a relentless foe, often the blinded homage of the over-awed and astounded canaille, even sometimes the precipitate and infuriated exultations of senseless Molochs, whoso savage pride gloats upon the lifeless forms of their victims, but the thrilling wonders of a hard-fought battle field become house-hold legends and appear as fairy tales in the truthful records of a nation's histor^' Books and experience teaoh us the magic feeling which the fame of a hero awakens, The name of Joshua, whose hoaven-nervod arm and courageous spirit, crowned the onco brow-beaten Isrealito with "victorious marches" in the I plains of Ajalon.and boforo Gideon, is sufficient I to exemplify the character of military greatness in the olden time.
