MR. SANDERS 'PICTURE.-Our townsman Mir WM. c EAsTos, has sent to Mir. BoULLENEr's original picture by SANDERS. The subject is lhe sis of Thetis Achilles, after his quarrel with Agamemnon. This picture was painted in Italy and is the property of the artist who is now in Flor ence stud, ing his art, and is for sale. To those who are fond of pictures we recommend a visit to Bouilemet. We will not venture crique upon it until we have better opportunity of judging by closer personal nspecton but we venture ihe opinion that for the beauty of the principal figure, and the admlrahle disposition of light and shadow, the pie ture is a very beautiful specimen of art.

THE NAVIGATION OF CoosA ABovE THE FALLs.-We learn from the Jacksonville Republi- that steamboat has been launched, at the ssTen Island Shoa," which is intended to ply between the Coosa Falls, and Rome, Ga. The Republican says Tt is the intention of the proprletors to make a trip np the river about the first of September, by which lime it-is thought the rail road will be com pleted wirhIn fifteen miles of Rome Arrangements will be made as soon thereafter as practicable for regular trips. This enterprise is of immense im- pertance to that section of country it will open facilities for the transportation of products to the Augusta, Charleston and other markets, and enable the merchants to procure their goods from the north more directly and readily, and on better terms than to ship round by Mobile. This boa, is said he an experiment, and should it prove successful, 1t is the intention, learn, of the proprieors to put other boats on the river. It will turn large portion of the trade which finds it's way to Mobile, in ano- ther direction, and which nothing but the speedy struclon of railroad around the falls of the Coosa can opviate, and that only m part.

CAssIUs M. CLAY is getting into hot water in Kentucky, with his anti-slayery ianaticsm. His violence has brought out exGovernor Metcalf in hos tlity to the schemes ol emancipation, and in severe examination of the conduct and motives of Cassius himself Metcaf berates Clay as "ylain," "trai- tor," "heartess wretch" and charges him with sell ling his own slaves under unfounded pretences that they were vicious, so as to pocket the proceeds, while he teaches unconditional emancipation 10 ot- CTS. Clay rejons with equal wrath, and these two brother politicians are at daggers poinIs-and one of points of dissension between them is whether whggism be not in it's nature idendlcal with aboli tionism. Clay affrns it as he did last summer, electioneerng for the whigs. Metcalf and other sound men of that party are strongly resisting this madness, and il is to be hoped that they will be able to put down this mischevous man and his plans by the force of public opinion.
