 ERoN STEAM RoAT.-The iron steam boat J. Randolph, made her first trip 10 An- gasta. from Savannah, on the 18th inst. ha- wing in tow two freight boats. The distance was performed in 72 hours. much t6 the sat isfacton of the citizens. Several deten- tions had occurred in the river from acclden- tai causes, not arising out of the working or the defects of the boat. The doubts which had been entertained of the capacity of boat of such light draft to tow heavy freight boats, of greater draft have been disslpated by the experiment. An invited company afterwards made apleasantexcur- sion, and were gratified with hermovements. The following description of her consuuc- ton and machinery, correcting several errors ! in former statements, is giving by the edi- tor of the Augusta GonstitutiosaIist
 The dimensions of this boat are 100 feet in length, 22 beam on the hull, and from s to 9 feet in depth in her hold according to her spring. Her bottom, and for three feet up, are of the best English rolled boiler plate iron, not cast as was stated through mistake by a brother editor, of 5-16ths of an inch in thickness, and all above of the same description of iron 4-I6ths of an inch. Her engine and machinery weigh about Is tons, and her (singel boiler l2 tons.- With her wood and water on board, she draws but 2 feet and inches aft and the same forward which ought to have been the extent of her draft but owing to some mistake in the fitting up in Savannah, or the press ure of the superincumbent engine and machinery, she is snagged for few feet immediately under, between } and 3 inches, making her greater draft between ? feet and feet inches. Her engine is condenslng one, of 36 horses power, feet stroke, intended to work expansive ly under pressure of l5lbs. to the square inch. It is from the manufactory of faw- cette, Preston & Co. of Liverpool, whose engines are solely used by the Steam Boat Company, and whose superiority from their first introduction upon the waters of this IT, yer, still deservedly maintain their well &C., quired reputation.

The office holders are in a sad predica. ment! their supply ofgold, with which they have been endeavonng to bribe the people, having becoming entirely exhausted. They accuse the Wings of buying up all they can lay hands on, with view of hoardino it up, but we do not believe there is word of truth in the charge. The N higs have not the means to pursue such course, as the "spoiis of victory" are in the hands ol their opponents. The disappearance ol the gold, however, Is very mysterious and some hold the opinion that it has been withdrawn from circulation ou account oi the quantities of spurious coin which have been palmed off upon the public.

She was discovered to be on fire about o'clock, P. M., when about l5 miles from the land, and so rapid were the flames that the efforts of the crew to save her were utterly fruitless.

PENNsYLvANIa.-The Hon. John q Natmough, member of the present Con- gfess, has been unanimously nonipated by delegates of the citizens of the third Con gresslonal district in Pennsylgania, opposed to the usurpations of Andrew Jackson, as a candidate for the next Congress.
 A large meeting has also been held at Southwark, Phil, in which the conduct ot the lion. Mir. Sutherland, their present re- fseseatative IT Congress, is very decidedly condemned, The following are two of the resolutions passed at this meeting
 Resolved, That we have no confidence m Joel 5. Sutherland, our mis-representa- tive in Congress-the man whose boasted democracy consists in gathering all office and power into his own hands--whose con- slstency IS III being inconsstent--who has first publicly denounced Andrew Jackson as a .Niwderer!ff and then lauded him as a patriot and sage--and who in his own language Sis a man of principle only i'll proportion to his interest.''
 Resolved, That we will oppose the re- election to Congress of Joel E. Suther- land, because he is a trading politician by professIon--a monopelist of office, and op- posed to inc democratic principles of rota- ton in ofFiee
 A meeting was held on the 2lst inst. at Spring Gardens, cordially approving the nomination of Col. Watmough; and among other things, condemniDg the corruptions and encouragement of the Post Office.
 Georgia.-We regret to observe in leading Georgia journal, (and one of the " Union" party, too,) deliberate proposi- tion to take possession of the lands now occupied by the Cherokee Indians, within that State, by main force. The reason for this conduct is most unblushingB stated to be that inc Supreme Court having decided against them, ard the highest State Court having also decided that the holder of Cher okee lands under the lottery distribution of the State, cannot take possession of his lot while an Indian resides on it, there is no resource left but to proceed eGtcie,titg iii 1 the business. \ more summary and equal 1 Y defensible ground of proceeding would be--we want the lands of the Gherokees, and are able to take them.-Ne,v Yorker

The abolitionists have really placed the blacks in an awkward and disagreeable position, having excited the public feeling against them the blacks are obliged to fly from their vengeance, and seek protection in other patts, where their increased num- bers 1t IS feared, will render the situation of the laboring whites uncomfortable, and for selt-preservationthey are torcedto make them=quit and seek another shelter
 The MoedbHry Herald of Tuesday last, says, that the upper part of Gloucester, N. J. "is literally overrun wth blacks, driven by the violence of an itfuHated mob rom their homes and property ID Philadelphia, to seek shelter and protection among the farmers of our county.

The Trenton, (N. j., Democrat, gives the following account of disturbance in that quiet and orderly city.
 si ,epeck q War.-Last Sunday night few disorderly persons collected around the colored Methodist Churchin this city, in which the notorious Isaac Abrams of Phil- adelphia was holding forth. After making some slight disturbance they saluted the building with shower of stones and brick bats which quickly demolished the win dows, and produced a scene of the widest uproar and confusion among the terrified congregation, who instantly abanoned the house and fled in every direction. The rioters then took to their heels and escap- ed. We hope our dty authorities will take every possible mems to bring these law less violators of the peace to oondiga pun ishment.

At the latter place he acted a very conspicuous part as a mock auction ger, conslgning to the flames the books be- longing to the Bishops library, as fast as they were knocked of, until the whole were consumed.
