SHARP SAYINGS. Tbe Southern Standard, Charleston, of Tuesday last, Informs, that Elmund Bellinger, Esq. enga ged in a discussion at Clinton, on the 4th inst. said that "if tbe commercial interests of the city of Charleston were a clog to th State, then be agreed with Capt. Allen, that we had better make xcn4AlMcx, lit citf." 8uch expressions show bow utterly unfit some of the leaders in South Carolina are, to manage the grave affairs of the times. We would as soon put ourselves under tbo lead of the veriest madman or idiot, as under the direction of men so calleus to the claims of hiimaoity so profoundly igooraul of tbe charac ter of mankind. These are, indeed, evil days, when a public man can be even permitted to utter such sentiments in a civilized community. Thei e are they who are destroying the fut ire hopes oftbe South, by driving (torn tbe tontliern ranks all pru dent and just men-, mon who would shrink from no honorable peril, but who would turn with dis gust ftom the tide of phrenzied zealots. We tnut the good people of South Carolina will become sensible of the deep injury such things are doing ttu'Ui everywhere, and institute a reform and gjt I such tneo out of tho lead in the State. History teaches as that these 'Fuiiosos"are not to be de pended upon in the hour of danger. Should they ever be brought to the test, we venture to pre dict that the gentlemen here named will be very careful to call in tbe aid of wisdom at the last pinch, and keep as much as possible out of the THE GARDINER CLAIM. Judicial proceedings have been institutedajainst Dr. Gardiner, for the alleged fr-"i committed by him ia a claim, of $423,000, L .-.go auatainod by him on account of a heavy i..uing interest of his ia San Louis Polos!, 'having been rendered Talueloss by the advance of the U. 8. troops fn II. do Cuesta has been accused of wrtify ingln favor of the claim before the grand jury, who examined witnesses in this case. M. ds C. comes'ouVln the Intelligencer of Wednesday, and declares tbo statement false, as he knows nothing abont the claim of Dr. Gardiner. Mr. Secretary Corwin is accused of pushing this claim, with nn nsnal seal. We do not believe a word of this. It is, doubtless, an Incident of the Oilphin afTair, called np and applied to the present case, for par ty purposes only. OHIO. The Whig State Convention of Ohio, at thi-Ir late session, nominated Gen. Scon as the candi date for the Presidency, but at the saiuo time will cheerfully support tho nominee of a National Whig Convention not quite so (ositivc on this point as Pennsylvania is. Resolutions were pas sed approving of the improvement of our rivers and harbors by the General Government ; opposi tion to encroachments by the Executive power, and a paramount regard to the Constitution and the Union. MR. WEBSTER AND THE COMPROMISE. Mr. Wkbstrr, on a late occasion, while speck ing of the Compromise of the last session of Con gress, declared that if the North wilfully set aside that part of the Constitution, tho South wonld not be bound by this compact. If we understand W. Webster, he considers tbe Constitution a compact, which, when broken by any one of the parties is not binding on the other. We think this is correct and now if any one can tell us how a State, severeign or not sovereign, can com mit treason for not doing what she is not bound to do, wo will be very much obliged to bim. GEN. JACKSON 8 OPINIONS. Ulie Standard is laboring to prove that Gen. Jicsson was favorable to State Sovereignty, and consequently in favor of the doctrine of the right of secession.

In its course it passed between and partially struck two composi-J tors who were standing clatogether at the time, injuring them somewhat severely, and rendering them, for the mornept, qnite insensible. Taking a southerly course tho lightning dashed throngh the wall of the office, and entering tho kitchen through another wall felled to the grojlnd a pe- I gro woman (tho cook,) who was at work there. The young men in the printing office aroused by the screams of tho cook, ran to her assistance and by a timely supply of water were no doubt instrumental in saving her life. Dr. Haywood was promptly in atteudance. The cook now lies in a precarious state, ale being fur advanced iu pregnancy. At the moment the cook was struck, there were six to eight childrcu in the kitchen with her, not one of whom was injured in the slightest degree. How these children and the printers escaped death is most miraculous, more especially the latter, who were not more than two yards from that part of the wall shattered by the pas&ago of the fluid. It was most providential. The single conductor ou the front of the build ing is fully proved by this accident insuflieient to protect it, and no doubt the Board of Directors will immediately see the defeat rem-.-dicd. The injury to the building is trivial, only a small portion of the tin casing of that corner of the building struck, being torn off. MR. BUCHANAN. At a Democratic Meeting held In Lancaster, lVun. on the 28th of last month!, Mr. Buchanan made a very good speech in favor of the rights of the South-. We ought to bevthankfut for this, even if he has aa eye on the Presidential Chair which be lias a right to have, because oftbe adage, " A Cat may look upon a King." tango of those mischievous things, called shots j Sinking of bis own State, Mr. Buchanan says and shells. Their tongues wag bravely at the I'es tivo meetingbut this is not circumstance to tho showing eff they will do, when tbo "vile guns" shall beoome clamorous. "Oh, bow they'll make tbeir trotters play I" ' '''SUBMISSIONISTS.". This offensive word, ths use of which has done so to ttdi Injury to tho cause of Southern Rights is still ia flippant nee by tho extremists. The re proofs which follow it arc aot confined to people of other States, but there is quite a gathering up of spirit and independence of feeling within Sonth Carolina, in this matter; and the ultras may take to theuuelues tbe blame, if there be any, that they ( will be efficiently opposed on tlioir ovo ground. Tbo Charleston Evening JVetai has some very ksea sad satirical remarks upon tho pre sumption of these partizans. That paper says : "Standing th n as our opponents do at such an immeasurable elevation above those who have the presutnptlon to suppose themselves equal in intel lect Ib penetration in sensibility to wrong in ths perception to honor is it surprising that men SO lifted above the vulgar level so imbued with an exclusive spirit of patriotinu should find a vocabulary in correspondence with this moral and intellectual exaltation. Alas I for the poor sons t of Carollas who are bom to sueh mental obtuse ess whoaA inheritors of a submissive spirit whose Information is so imperfect and judgment so unsound, that when measured by so etevated standard as tbo mors radiant genius and lofty coirage of their opponents disclose, they should exhibit sued diminutive proportions. It has be come ths Wbit to apply corresponding epithets to objects placed at an Immeasurable 4kUn.ce from cs ia the scale of being in all moral and mental properties. Were tbe miscalled Submis-sienists on level ia this respect with the Secessionists they She is emphatically the Keystone of the Union Let a majority of her citizens sternly decide that the Constitution and the Laws should be faithfully executed that tho Fugitive Slave Bill shall nei thefbe regaled nor essentially modified that the use of our jails shall be afforded to the cit- tie' of our sister States for the safe keeping of their fugitives from labor whilst awaiting their trial and the danger will then have passed a- way. Let her citizens decide differently, at the approaching election, and the consequence may be disastrous," CisciNNiTi, July 4th. The Beard of health re port 43 Cholera, and 282 deaths from other dis eases, since the 21st of June. There is no ground for supposing that cholera prevails as an epidem ic, as every case can be traced to imprudence in diet. . CAUTION TO LADIES. A Cincinnati paper states that Dr. Muzzey was one day last week called on to perform a singu lar operation upon the head of a young lady liv-. I:ig on John street. It appeared that she had been in the habit of twisting and tying her hair so tightly that the scalp had become parted from the skull, and it was necessary to open the scalp to remove the matter which bad accumulated be neath. This is the first case of the kind we havo ever kuown. FROM JAMAICA. We have files of Kingston papers to the 28th of June. The papers are reiterating their com plaints qf the want of laborers on the sugar plan fations generally. The Standard says: "It is probable that ono-tbird, at least, of the estimated crop of this year, which should have been the largest exported many years from Ja- f resiling accessories, beckon ns away from dust and turmoil of the City. r. , V For my single self (single, because a bachelor pro km) I have just U-turned from a week's ab- senco in mat scene oi auciem revolutionary spir it and good modern mflk, theHttle town of Lex ington, Mass. One would suppose that with such milk, Lexington might afford a sort of moral punch sufficiently stimulating to the patriotism of Its people to induce them to project tbe erec tion of a monument more than 80 feet high, on the scene of the first revolutionary blood shed. Lexington has not changed her character as a purely agricultural town, for in her caso tho pro duction cf milk js not (as in this vicinity) a man ufacturing business. She abounds in large apple orchards aud pas tures, and her stock farms, not Surpassed by any in New England, furnish a great portion cf tbe, excellent milk which is used in Boston, whither it is taken every morning in numerous one horse carls and dealt out at five cents a quart to regu lar customers at their own doors. The milk men usually have farm of their own, but every even ing they collect mnch more of other farmers in their neighborhood, whom they allow for it 18 a 20 cts. a cans, containing seven quarts. The "mill; routes" are not owned by compan ies but by many different individuals, and the "good will" of a first rate set of customers, is re garded as a saleable property, and marketable at from 81,000 to $2000. Aoute, on which 87 quart canns of milk are retailed daily, usually produces a clean annual profit of 81,000. In New York, the milk business is conducted by companies who keep thousands of cows in a single building, and feed them without pasturage, on distill house slops, which produces large quan tities of milk, entirely innocent of cream, and very deleterious in quality. In the ten miles of rail road between Boston and Lexington, there is n rise of 100 feet, and the British red coats must have found it rather up hill work on the 19th of April 1775. HowevetF, ihe "down grade" facilitated tbeir return on tbit famous occasion, when (you may remember) they were somewhat in a hurry. The Steamship Union, in charge of Adams & Cos. New Orleans Express, arrived last evening only 6J days from New Orleans. In addition to the S'iOl.m in gold dust ship ped to Adams & Co. per Cherokee, $19,004 in dust was aboard the same vessel for their New Orleans oflice, making altogether J813 528-the largest shipment ever made to that great express firm, and four times greater than has ever been made to any other concern. This Uses not look as if the digging had done yielding. In Broadway, this morning, bright and early, I saw a procession of School girls, in couples to the number of about 100. followed by as many boys, bearing small baskets not a pick-nic, but a pick berry, party, going to ' Yonkers," to have a good time. We are now in the enjoyment of an abun dance of berries of various kinds. It is said that P. F. Barnum Esq. is one of the owners of tho Nicaragua line of Steamships, to which tho "North America" has recently been added. Why then was Mr. Barmuu bo indignant when it was announced that this ship was sold under her passengers, and would not proceed to Galway 1 The Irish authorities in various towns between Galway and Dublin had made arrangements to give her passengers a very cordial reception. ' The outrageous and systematic impositions upon Emigrants, at this port, (to which I have before alluded) begin to excite public attention. Foreigners in the United States owe it to their countrymen at home to warn them against the keepers ot Emigrant boarding houses, and emi grant forwarders in this City. These scoundrels plunder the poor emigrant in a manner, compared to which, highway robbery is commendable John Allen, ex-mayor of Rochester has come out in the "Herald," with a long and wordy ad vertisement, over the above signature, denouncing the N. Y. Commissioners of Emigration. .DESTRUCTIVE FIRE? 1 Svractsk, July 8. Two blocks of buildings on ihe south side of Clinton square, occupied by Wharton & Co., and 19 others, were burnt this monjiiij. The loss is 675.000. Strike Among the Factory Girls in Allegheny City dfcc. FiTTsni;na. July 7. This forenoon a number of factory girls in Al legheny city proceeded to the Hope cotton fac tory, for the purpose of enforcing the ten hour law. They intended to get the Hope girls to join them, but failed. They succeeded, however, in taking down a portion of the fences enclosing tho factory. The Alleghany police came on the ground and shortly dispersed them. The Hope factory continued work during the day. Soinc of the mills were not running, but the Eagle factory consented to run again to-morrow. No arrests were made. - ' !

From May 15th to 18th, shocks of earthquakes were numerous. A severe shock of earthquake was felt at San Francisco, Cal., on the 16th, and on the same day a very severe earthquake was f felt at Palnia, Island of Majorca, preceded by a clap of thunder. San Francisco, is in lat. about 38deg. N. long. 123 deg. W. Palma is in lat. 39 deg. N., long 4 East. Several severe shocks of earthquake wore felt at Polnta Pitre Guadaloupe, on the 16th and 17th May. An earthquake, attended by a thnnder and lightning storm, wan felt at Oeorgia, Central A- merica, on the 18th of May. . Hail storms, lightning and thunder storms, and tornadoes visited various places froru Texas to Maine, bctwoen May 13th and 20th, and were very severe. On the 15th May, an electric current was vis. Wule trom my place of observation, running from TO. W. to S. E., and iu tho cveiiinza briirht Aurora lighted up the North. Oubo morning of the lith, tho electrjc cur rent was still running, and in three hours moved 22J degrees Sonth. I was conversing with Mr. Hale, President of Geneva College, on the steps of the Atlantic Insurance Office, the morning of the ICth, and called his attention to the elrctric current which was then in full view, and remarked to him that it proceeded from a distant convul sion, and would be followed by rain. On the 17th tho current continued, but it was front South to North, and was attended by rains, showers, and. distant thunder. In Maji, 1818, from 10th to 13th, earthquakes were severe in the Province of Tuscany, Europe ; FATAL ACCIDENT. Avon, Nkw York, July 8. Mr. John Howell, a well known and opulent gentleman of this placo, was thrown from his buggy, yesterday, and almost instantly killed. . '' p From the Raleigh "ficgister. N. C. LIFE INSURANCE CO. The Annual Meeting of the Stockholders of this Institution took place on Monday last. The reKrt of the Directors shows that the company is daily growisg in pablic favor, and that it has taken a stand along with the most re liable institutions of this kind in the country for be.ddes meeting promptly all its losses and defraying all its uecessary expenses, it has re maining on band more than $46,000, to meet fu ture expenses and losses. ' On the subjects of Dividends," says the report, "the Directors have moved with great caution. At the first Annual meeting, no Dividend was declared, because they believed the best interest and welfaro oj'tbo company dictated shcIi a poli cy. '1 his yar, however they have declared a Dividend to Life members, of thirty per cent, on the premiums paid in by those who have renew ed their policies prior to tho first Monday of July. This is a most gratifying evidence of the prosper ity of the Company. Tho following Gentlemen have been elected Directors for the ensuing year, viz: Dr. C. E. Johnston, C. B. Root, J. F. Jordan, W. It. Mc- Kee, W. W. Holden, Seaton Galas, W. R. Scott, 11. W. Husted, W. D. Haywood, Perrin Busbee, F. C. Hill, W. D. Cooke and W. U. Jones. The old Officers of the company were unani mously ro-clectcd by the Board of Directors. IMPRISONMENT OF CHARLES L. BRACE. The fact that this young gentleman has been arrested and Imprisoned by the Austrian Govern ment while on a pedestrian tour in the Magyar country, Hungary, on the allegation or suspicion of political complicity with somu of the officers or others who took part in the Hungarian revolt, and whom he had steppei) out of the main road to visit, has been some time before tbo American public. There need be no uneasiness about our Government doing its duty to one of its citizens in Austria or any where else. Tho present Ad ministration may be trusted on that point. l'an time Mr. McCurdy, our representative at Vienna, has corresponded with the Austrian Government, jnd received assurances that may bo regarded as amicable and as favorable to Mr. Brace S-S. V. C-jm. Adv. I il P 0 RTA vfTTfu M MEXICO. Telegraphic advices from New Orleans, to July 5, states that late advices have been received there from Mexico. The Mexican government had issued orders for all Americans engaged in the Tehuantepec road, to leave tho Isthmus immediately, and troops were sent to enforce the order. A revolution was daily expected in li.vor of Santa Anna. It is said that General Arista had abandoned the Liberals on receiving a bribe from the priests to the amount of $350, W0. The Cuban government had demanded the recall of the Mexican Consul at Havana, on suspicion of his having been .connec ted with the Lopez expedition.
