GOLD DIGGING IN GEORGIA.

The Milledgeville Recorder of the l7lh instant
says: Persons engaged in this pursuit in our gold
region have of late we learn, been much stimulated
in then labor in consequence of the handsome profits
they have in many instances recently realized. We
are credibly informed that in the neighborhood OF
Dahlonega there are from fifteen hundred TO two
thousand pennyweights found daily At one mine
on Battle Branch there was lately one lump found,
WORTH it is said, one hundred and twenty eight dol
lars. 1t is supposed, from present prospects, that
there will be at eas, from three to four hundred thou
sand dollars realised in that section from the pursuit
within the pre- ent year. The late success in this bu
sness is drawing the attention Of many others to it,

the want Of capital and credit would effectually
prevent it from going into operation if il were
chartered. Then what can be gained by
joining the hue and cry Of the Clay faction
against the Administration The great body
OF the Wing party agree with the President in
almost every measure recommended to Con-
gress. Tariff for revenue will afford sufii,
cent protection, incidentally, to satisfy most of
the Northern manufacturers. The Wings out
OF Congress are in favor of the Exchequer. In
truth, there exists no just aud sufficient reason
why every honest and patriotic Wing should
not rally to the support Of the Administrations
II they do SO, (and we think they must,) they
may rely upon this fact: the diminution of
numbers caused by the detection and disruption
of the Bank faction, will be more than compen-
stated by accessions from the Democratic party.
The moderate and conscientious portion of that
party are also perfectly willing and ready TO
throw off their ambitious leaders-the Dema-
gogues and Destructives-and unite with honest
men in the work of regenerating the Republic.

MIR. MANGUM.

We have on two or three occasions sacrificed
small space in our columns to a comment on
the course of this Senator from North Carolina.
We have paid this tribute to the station he oc-
cupes, not to the politician himself. The OPT
Mons and conduct of the Senator may frequent
ly exert important influences, when the example
of the politician can attract neither abetlers no,
imitators. Linked in action with great men,
copying their acts, and borrowing the ideas and
eoquence which he could not originate, he has
by mere association reached an unmerted emf
nence of reputation and position. On account
of station only we notice his conduct. His
oratory, except on the floor of the Senate cham
Der, would be harmless. We promised that we
would at some leisure moment CRAFTY his aspi-
rations by giving short biography Of states
man so distinguished. In the mean time, till
that moment arrives, we shallretresh his memo
ny with few detached incidents as memories
pour servr ihistoire.
AT this time Mr.. Mangum is understood to
be the mirror which is to reflect Mr.. Clay's
greatness in the Senate the instrument that is
TO re-echo his principles the disciple who is
personate his character, and retain in lis pris-
,ine vivdness the image Of the Kentucky Die
tator before the Senate and the People. Of
course, MIR. Mangum's confidence in Mr.. Clay
is now entire and implicit Was it always SO 2
The following passage from one Of his speeches,
tie whole tenor of which manifess that the
blow is intended for the Lama of his political
idolatry, demonstrates the revolution, the en-
tire change, that his principles and sentiments
have undergone:
have lost all confidence in certain part of the
Senate in reference to any conciaory disposition
the dustnent of this great and dangerous subject
(the larif) | look to them for nothing hope
from them nothing. lsish the country poud say,

The great and dangerous subject is again to
be agtated. Will Mr.. Mangun's political lit
tleness be 50 hatter,d by the privilege Of play
ing lctor to the Dictator, that he will battle for
high protection, or will he return TO his first
love2 We fear the result.

THE SENATE AND THE NAVY

The friends of the Navy everywhere, are greatly
distressed with the of the House of Represen-
tatiyes in relation to the Navy appropriation bill.
They however rely upon the Senate, with much conf.
dence They neither can will believe, that such
rash receive the sanction ofthat highly in
teectual body. The whole nation has strong regard
for the Navy Nor have they been remiss in express
sing their wishes TO the members of Congress on the
subject Almost every paper in the Union, has APP
pauded the course of Judge Upshur, account Of
his able suggestions, presented to Congress with the
view of sustaining our gallant Navy. We can assure
our Representatives in all sincerity that they have
grossly msinterpreted public opinion in voting to
strike the million of dollars out Of the navy BILL and
they will find that they have erred when they meet
their constituents,

EXPLOSION OF TWO LARGE STEAMBOATS,

MIR. Fowler, the clerk of the steamboat Taey-

last night on the Gondoa, who informs us that as

She came up with the steamer Douglas, off Canadian
Reach, about one hundred and twenty miles below
the mouth of the Ohio in a sad and disabled cond-
ton. Ii was midnight, and about half an hour be-
FORE the steampipc Of the Douglas that connects the
boilers with the cylinder had exploded, disabling the
vessel and killing and woundng many of the passen-
gers. All the occupants of the ladies' cabin, with
the exception of a little girl, were either killed or
dangerously scalded We are unable to procure the
names Of the sufferers but we learn that among the
killed was MIR. Leonard, of New Orleans, three
children and a servant Three ladies, two children
and three men were badly scalded as to render re
covery hopeless Three other ladies were slightly
injured

her up to Smithland where medical aid was obtain

Mr.. EpIroR Permit me, through your valuable
paper, to call the attention of the public to very
markable cure effected by the application Of the
wel-known Vapor Bath, the invention of Major
BoYp REILLY, now resident in our city.
Mrs Quickly, an elderly lady, residing near the
Navy Yard Bridge, had, for length of time, been
afflicted by severe attack of infammaory rheuma.
tsm The blood in the patient had forsaken the sur
face as is often the case when persons in advanced
years and of spare habits take cold her skin had
sumed the CHASTITY hue of death, and excrucatng
spasmodc pain shot from the right shoulder into the
breast, threatening death at each respiration, which
might have been the consequence had it reached the
heart the lungs. To add to her suferngs, her
right hand and arm were, from excruciating torture
deprived Of all power of motion. Medical aid hav-
ing failed to afford relief Major Reilly, by and with
the advice of the respected family physician, made
the first application of the vaor bath, which restored
the vital stream TO the surface allayed the pain and
relieved the right arm as to enable her to raise
cup of drink TO her lips; the second application has
restored her far to allow her not only to leave
her bed but also her room, and she may now be
sdered in state of conyaescence.
