The Union adduces the course of the Know Hothing party of Pennsylvania to prove that northern Know Nothingism is hopelessly abo- litionised, and glories over the rout of the Know Nothings in Georgia, where Johnson’s (Democrat) majority is very large; perhaps twenty times as large as at the last previous election, if the accounts that have reached us this morning are to be relied on. Messrs. Seward, Warner, Cobb, Lumpkin, and A. H. Stephens are electad to Congress. Mr. Trippe is the only candidate on the “‘American ticket’”’ who fs yet known to be elected. Tho result in two districts remainsin doubt. Our impression, howerer, is, that when the official returns reach us, it will be found that Mr. Trippe is the only Know Nothing chosen. The Intelligencer rejoices over the deter- mination of the Whigs of New York to follow the example of those in Massachusetts in the matter of refusing to fuse with any faction whatever. — We havo received from the publishers, Griffiths & Batcs, New York, the October num- ber of the United States Nautical Magazine and Naval Journal. It contains much valua- bie information to all whose business is con- nected with the sea.

The W: Convention.—On Wednes- day next, there isto be in Winchoster a Conven- tion of those interested inthe construction of the Alexandria, Loudon and Hampshire Railroad. There is every prospect that the attendance will be large, and that the result will be a concert of action to secure the necessary in- terest in the further prosecution of the work, which is all that is requisite to its prompt com- pletion. We have, of late, discussed the im- portance and feasibility of this improvement, until all our readers are well aware that we regard its construction as the key to the future prosperity of the most fruitful and healthfal agricultural region of the State, and to unlock mineral treasures (of coal) for the use of so- ciety, at least as rich and valuable as any now known to exist on the globe, and as eco- nomically to be brought into the service of commerce and the arts, as any other coal fields of the same extent and value, wherever they may be located. To our mind the first ques- tion which the action of this convention is to solve is, whether the agricultural lands within thirty miles on each side of the Alexandiis, Loudon and Hampshire Railroad shall in- crease in the next five years ten per centum in value, or one hundred per centum. If the convention accomplishes nothing, we must be content to have them remain long near their present value. If it yndertakes the task of raising the necessary fands, and its agents prosecute it with a hearty good will, in five years every acre of agricultural land within some thirty miles on each side of the work will sell for double as much “on an average,” as it will bring in open market to-day. Kinney & Co.’s Movements and Pros- pects.—The last trip of the Star of the West from San Juan, brought usa letter from a well- informed and observing gentleman in Nicara- gus, which only reached us this morning, hav- ing been entrusted to the care of a passenger on the steamer, who, of course, forgot to mail it to our address for some days after his arrival in New York. It is, however, well worth publication, inso- much as it exposes the falsehood of the ac- counts of the proceedings and prospects of Kin- ney & Co., which having been published for the benefit of the speculation, inthe New York Evening Post, have been copied by thou- sands of newspapers as truthful news of the condition of affairs in San Juan, &c. The following is the letter to which we refer above : Grerrown, Nicaragua, Sept. 15, 1355. W. D. Wattacu, Esq—Sir: Since the de yarn of the ‘‘ Northern Light’’ Col. Kinney as been elected civil and military Governor of this place. Notice had been given that a meeting would be held fur the purpose of form- ping ® government to protect lite and property. en the meeting was held, about the on! real residents and property holders of thie town who were present were Wood, Shepard, Mooney, and some Jamaica negroes. The Spanish inhabitants did not attend, and have with one accord since sent in a protest against the authority of Kinney. The English Consul and also the @aptain of H. M. ship ‘“ Eyni- dice,”’ now at anchor in this port, refuse to acknowledge the new government. Martin was absent at the time, but has since returned, and states that he shall still exercise the juris- diction given him some time 25s as he holds that ithas not yet been annulled. Kinney has bought the bogus Shepard grant, (deeded irre- voeably long since to Senator James Cooper et al,) and eceording!y lays claim to the whuie country! He is said even to lay claim to Punta Arenas, to a right to collect harbor dues, and to charge head-money on all pas- sengers —. the Nicaraguan isthmus! Takes issued a newspaper for effect in the United States, a copy of which I will endeavor to obtain to send ou. He also promises to establish aschool in a short time, which will robably be reported ‘‘ in the Stgtes’’ to be in ull blast, and flourishing. His force, ragged and hungry, still remains about the same, no recruits belongi ‘d here having joined him, though he aehen tedly enjoys the sympathy of the Jamaies negroes amona uss psaee to have private information that his main back- ers in the United States are the abolition lead- ers, with whom they say he is now privately acting in some sort of concert or other. Fabens meets with rather hard treatment here, his friends being evidently very scarce this region, He says he is about going to Granada, stating that he goes with full powers from Kinney to negotiate with the Government. He says he has in his possession a letter from eats to Kinney, requesting the latter to appoint some one to negotiate with the Govern- ment. This letter was in reply to that of Kinney, sent by Consul Nelson, of Turks’ Island, to Estrada, (President of the Nicaraguan Kepub- lic,) at Grenada, wherein K. protests that his purposes towards Nicaragua and her authority are peaceful and friendly, and offering to prove So to the satistaction of the Government, if Estrada would listen to the explanation wisich he would send some one to make. Estrada’s reply (the letter that Fabens has) amounts only to a deglaration that he was ready to listen to any be eanag that Kinney has to make. ours, &c., * 2 * The Very Last Roorback—wide last Fri- day’s Herald, in the Washington telegraphic column for it. Its stories, about the two Sey- mours, Mr. Wise, Cabinet councils, Seoretary Marcy, &c., &c., are the veriest falachoods, deliberately and knowingly concocted to make up for the lack of a single line of truth to be published as poming from this city per tele- graph. There was o time when the Herald’s Washington ncwe, by telegraph, years ago, was remarkably reliable. Of late years, how- ever, it seems that its makers-p of that col- umn in New York, prefer to imagine falsehoods 80 bald and childishly nonsensical as that he who fails to comprehend that they are false- hoods at a glance, may fairly be classed with the race of stolid and stupid fools, which never dies out. We have had a hearty laugh at tho openness of the mendacity of the roorbacker, who, sitting in the Hera/d’s sanctum, takes the liberty of making that journal’s corres- pondents in this city the laughing stocks of all the rest of the men of the press here, by at- tributing to their pens stories which, if theirs, would stamp them in the estimation of all the little boys in our streets, for either the biggort foola or the most unconscionable fibbers who ever played the mountebank under the pre- tence of gathoring news for the press. Freight and Salvage.—In a case where Government property had been shipped on board a vessel which was wrecked, and a large portion of the cargo was saved by the exertions of an individual, to whom fifty yer cent. salvage was decreed, the owners of the vessel claimed full freight on all the property saved. It was held, that although it is a gen- eral principle of law that freight is earned when the goods are delivered to the consignee, yet this principle does not apply without qual- iftcation to goods received subject to a claim for salvage. It has been decided by the courts, both in Europe and this country, that in caloulating freight the amount allowed for salvage should be considered as /ost, for the salvor isnot obliged to agree to a valuation, but may have the goods actually sold and take his proportion of the produce, which would there- fore be as much lost as if that portion of the goods had not beep reserved. The salvage is 3 loss, to which, by law, vessel, freight, and cargo are liable to contribute; and the salvage diminishes freight in such manner that no more than a rateable freight is due for the property. actually saved, exclusive of salvage. In this case freight was allowed only upon that part of the cargo which came to the possession the United States, after deducting so mich of the property saved from the Wreck a8 was req. quired to pay salvage. Indian Trost Lands in Kansas.—Infor- mation has been received from the Surveyor viction of duty as was ever shown by persons of maturer ago.

The survey of the Delaware lands will be completed by the last of November. The Iowa and Delaware lands can there- fore be valued and prepared for sale, nearly as soon as the ‘‘ Weas,’’ &0., can be surveyed, as the latter cannot be completed much before the middle of January. It: is presumed that all of these lands-will be ready for sale in the coming spring.

The epidemic is still on the decline in Nor- folk and Portsmouth. Sevoral new cases were reported in each place during Thursday and Friday, owing to the inclement weather. In Norfolk, there were five deaths and eight new cases on Thursday; and one death and three new cases on Friday morning. Among the victims are: Rev. Dr Jackson, Mr. Dubbs, Isaac Wilk- erson, Mr. Cully, Wm. Loring, Lucy Wilson, John Sullivan, Mrs. Lee. Dr. Powell writes from Norfolk, on the 5th, as follows: ‘¢ The gradual improvement which has been oing on fora week t continues. Every ay increases the number of stores which have been opened. Most of the Southern physi- cians and nurses have either left or made ar- rangements for leaving at an early day. t is reported that seventeen of the recent cases in Norfolk and Portsmouth have been persons who left those cities and imprudently returned. This statement may be an ex: r- ation, but every physician with whom I have conversed expresses the opinion that those who return now do it at an tmmunent risk.” According to a report from the Howard In- firmary, of the number of cases, cures, and deaths, since its establishment to the 3d inst., it appears that the rate of mortality among the whites has been 51 30-100 per cent., and 8 33-100 per cent. among the colored patients. Rey. Mr. Jackson, of Norfolk, is dead, and was beried on Thursday morning This is the sizth minister who has died, apd the second of the Episcopal Church. He was groatly b@ loved, and the event has deeply afflicted the’ people of Norfolk. A correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch, writing from Norfolk on the 4th instant, says: Wm. Hawkins, the keeper of the City Alms House, and several of the inmates of the es- tablishment are down with the fever. The occupants, I learn, are to be removed to the Julappi Hospital, four miles from the it, city. DT cegiet to inform you that Dr. D. M. Wright is quite ill of the fever. He has been con- stantly going since the commencement of the fever, and has at last yielded like the rest to the power of the disease. - Dr. Robt. B. Tunstall is out again, and will goon be fully able to enter upon the discharge of his professional visitations. Dr. Hargrove, of Richmond, {s also down ain. ee Williams, clerk of the court, and his assistant, Mr. Thomas, are both weil enough to be out agaia, siving good evidence of » fierce conflict with the fearfyl disease.

Byler, Dr. Nash, Dr. Friedeman, and E. Guy are out, and rapidly recovering trom the effects of the féver. © The weather continues cool, dry, and clear, but I gccasionglly hear of new cases; the dis- ease is still yery malignant in its attacks, and instances soon in death. "ont frost, it is hoped, will put « Analend ta ite existence our city, an enable us to feel ouce more Be the work of death has ceased. es Mr. D. Dubbs, the sexton of a2 Protestant burial grounds, died on Wednesday. Mr. vb. (writes the correspondent of the Petersburg Express) deserves more than a passing notice. He had had the supérintendence of burying the dead in the three Protestant burying- grounds of the city, and most faithfully hashe performed his melancholy duties. From the commencement of the fever, he has been in- cossantly engaged, and assisted during that time in consigning two thousand and three hundred to the grave. About three days ago, his wife was interred, when he was taken with the fever, and has now shared the fate of the many hundreds who preceded him. He leaves several small children, who in less than one week have been deprived of both father and mother. PORTSKOUTH. In Portsmouth, there were eight deaths and five new cases on Thursday—the new cases being caused by the too early return of ab- sentees, who are speedily attacked by the epi- demic, which is very malignant and in a short time carries off those whom it attacks, and they are speedily consigned to the tomb. Young J. Whitcomb Ashton, (who is about seventeen years of age,) the deputy postmas- ter, has entirely recovered from his severe at- tack of the fever. This young man, although but an assistant in the office at the commence- ment of the epidemic, permitted family and friends to leave him at his post, being determ- ined that the people of that section should not be deprived of their mail facilities and be de- barred from hearing from their absent friends. All left him, but he remained at his post, in the performance of the duties of which he was stricken down by “Yellow Jack,’ and con- veyed tothe United Statee Hospital. After his recovery be again went to his post, and breasted the pitiless storm of the pestilence, evincing as brave a heart and as firm a con- We do not know exactly how many persons it have been buried in i is be- tweem nine hundred and a thousand; and I have no doubt that before it is done, we shall have reached the thousand interments; and that of itself tells an awful tale in » population of three persons that remained here. The Doctors that came here to assist in the Mogg have all left with the exception of two; leaving, all of them assembled together and held a consultation, as to when it would be prudent for persons to return to Portsmouth, and they decided that they should not return until three or four frosts, and 8s many as possibly could had better remain “Me.

Y. Times, of Saturday. {> The illumination in Paris and the sur- rounding villages, it seems, was by order of Government, and not at all a voluntary popu- lar demonstration. A Paris correspondent cf the New York Daily Times says, that in the village where he resides a drummer paraded the streets at ten o’clock in the morning, and after having collected a crowd he directed all the inhabitants of the village to illuminate their windows on a certain evening by order of the local authorities, under a penalty of a fine of seven aad a half frances for every windcw not illuminated. EsSome of the New York city builders have very tae an excellent ‘notion.”” They insert a fire safe in the walls ofthe house they build, for the preservation of plate, jewelry, and money. This adds very little to the cost of a house, but is a very great advantage to its inmates. eee BOS eee ran (7 It is mentioned as a fact worthy of no- tice that the naval armament destroyed by the Russians themselves, to prevent it falling into the hands of their enemies, exceeded in num- ber of guns the whole naval force of the Uni- ted States, EF A letter in the St. Peter (Min.)
