Judge DARGAS has returned to this city, and we are authorised n say that he has accepted ,he nom nation of the Democratic Convention, and is can didate for Congress. The more formal letter of ac- septance will be addressed to the Committee, from whom he received notice of his nomination al Tus. eaoosa. on the eve of his starting for home.
 The Judge will immediately take the field and canvas the District His opponent is little ahead of him at the beginning of the canvas. but he must whip up and work harl to keep ahead of him to the end.
 The acceptance of this nomination is a persona Il sacrifice of no small moment by a man of Judge Dargan's professional emnence and extensive busi ness. It was unsonght by him, and has been prof lered because the democrats believe that he can do his party and his country good servce-and he has cheerfuy surrendered himself to their will he will beor their standard manfully through stern and doubtful struggle. He has right 10 expect that they too will do their duty to themselves, and that
 the democ ats of the district will be up and dolng to secure their ascendancy. The tune is growing short and every true of lhe party should be at his post.

WoNnERTUL LAND SLIDE IN THE TOWN or WARSAW. ULSTER CoUETY.-.A correspondent writing from Ulster, says.
 "Never, within the recollection of our oldest citi- has nsture given such awful demonstrations of her freaks in this vicinity, AS happened here d few weeks sInce. On the night of the 3i of May last, Il large tract of land, comprising portion of inc farms of J. H. B. Dimond and Jas G. Bruyn, broke loose, and was carried by the iOrce of it's own gravity a bout l60 yards carrying with it fruit trees and va rious others of large size still standing in their upright position; others torn from their beds and scattered in most beautiful confusion. What has caused this rupture, one has, as yet aned Nought was heard of ie 'rnove' of this of mat ter, save of the neighbors says he heard the sound of crushing mighty wind" The first inli- maiion we had of any thing uncommon having taken place, was, that the RondouI creek below the slIde, was, on the following morning completely dry. On our arrival al the place. we found thai the earth had broken loose about 30 feel from the stage road, lead ing from Kingston Worsboro, running parallel with the road, for about l20 yards, forming chasm al the point where Il started. of about 100 feet per pendicalar. The whole body containing about 60 acres of land.
 In its passage it crossed the Rondoui stream, lie rally clearing the bed of all obsruciions and deposit ing it's contents to the height of about l5 feet in the bed of the stream for about l60 yards, forming dam a. one dash ihe whole stream impervious as masonry could make it. The waters above proved what has always been considered impossible name. ly, their powers of running Sup stream." This il continued to do for the distance of about two miles, 10 place called Hixon's dam, where after finding it's level, il recoiIed-wilh the help of human hands, and its own powers, il forced its passage through the adjoining lands, to find it's old channel below

At pubic meeting in the city of Charleston, ca lied to consider the proper to be adopted on he occasion of the death of Gen. JACKSON, Judge Hs- ger made eloquent and feeling address, concud ing with resolution, calling upon the State Legs- ture "to pay or cause to be paid to the memory of General Jackson, such tribute as may be deemed by poserIy worthy of the State, and worthy of the Pa- triot Hero who has left his impress on the age in which he lived"
 Similar meetings have heen held in all the princi- pal cities and which the tidings of his death have arrived, and every considerable place in the country will doubtless spontaneously join in the uni versal sentiment of national regret and veneraton for the illustrious dead.
 The Washington Union publishes extracts from journal of visitor at the Hermitage during few of the last days of General Jacksons sickness, from which some very interesting extracts may be culled for future publication.

The Washington Union announces the appoint Jneni of LOUIS McLANE of Maryland as Minister to England, in place of Mir ED. EVERETT. Mir McLANE was formerly Minister to England whence he returned in 1s32 to accept the office of Secretary of the Treasury, in the Cabinet of Gen JACKSON He represented his native State, Delaware, in both Houses of Congress- with great distinction, and is man of talent, high character, and great prudence and experience in public affairs. He was originally, we believe, federast in politics, but attached him- self early the "radcal' school of Southern demo- cras, and actively sustained Mir. Crawfor in ls24-5, and thence forward has acted with the democrats.
 He sails in the steamer of the 18th July.

THE BANK COLLECTION BILL AND THE REPuDIAToRs-WHo ARE THEY!-The Dal-
 las Gazette is urgent for the defeat of Colonel TERRY, as the judgement of the people against repudiation, and republishcs. gravely. as matter for public reflection, not ridicue, resolution sad 10 have been adopted in earnest by mee ting al Ca hawbs expressing the fear that the election of Col. Terry would lead to "repudaton." They might just sagey saney express the fear that the eec ton of Terry would lead to low waters, short crops the army worm and the yellow fever. There is not man in the State more firm in his opposition 10 any thing that snvors of repndaon or that leads to II than Nathaniel Terry. His principles, his votes his repeated and emphatic declarations, are all as strongly in favor of the most rigid maintenance of the public faith, those of any other public man or can he.
 The whole foundation for the silly story is that he vo ted in the Senate against the collection law now n force; upon He avowed ground that his judgement it required too much he safely collected, and might by requiring too much, weaken the security ofthe debts and lessen the absolute sum of collections. Thi | difference of opinion with portion of the legisla ture, upon the expedience of the rate of collections best calculated to wind the banks up most speedily and safely, is the ground of the violent assaults o which these Dallas resolves are specimen.
 Did it occur to these excited gentlemen. when they were running this muck against Nat. Terry for that vote, as proof of dangerous leaning towards the doctrine of repudiaion, 10 count up how many in the State and who, would be included in this ban of prescription as repudiaiors in principle, of the debts of the State. Did they look into the jour aals of the legislature and take list of the public men, who having voted with Col. Terry on the test question, are liable to the same perpetual dIsquah cations from public trusts which they seeking to establish against him' Had they locked with some carefulness into these facts, we thnk they might have hsstaIed before they attempted to get sp such
