DIED,

On September l, at his place near Rock Creek
church, b. c., Captain WILLIAM G. SANDERS,
aged 81 years, native of Maryland, and recently a
citizen OF Florida.
He was we'll known as a man of singular benevo.
lencc honesty, and patriotism. A gallant officer in
the late war with Great Britain he was taken pris.
oner under Col. Boerstler at the Beaver Dams, on
June "a, 1873. As a volunteer ia the late Florida
war, he was shot through the body in February,
1896, near Camp lizard, on the Withlacoochee
while at the head Of band of friendly Indians.
This wound and exposure to the seventies of eli
mate in Canada and Florida, shattered his iron con-
stituiion, and FASTENED his decease.
Wherever he was known, his high sense Of honor
was proverbal; and long will the poor in his neigh.
borhood mourn in him bouefactor whose money
and labor were freely expended in their behalf He
was soldier and an honest man; in peace and
war, without fear, and without reproach.n
Ills funeral will take place on tomorrow morn
ing "wednesday at 10 o'clock, at Rock Cree,
of hs family, are respectfully invited TO attend with.
out further notice.

MEXICO.

Our advices from Mexico are those brought by
the Water Winch to New Orleans, and are contained
IN the New Orleans papers Of the 18th. No lecla-
ration OF had been made by Mexico, ut the time
the Water Witch left Vera Cruz; nor is 1t possible
to determine whether that nation will take any hos
tile measure, or what she will do. In the absence
of all means TO carry on war with the United
States, and without credit TO borrow money abroad
with army poorly fed and clothed, and worse
paid, we do not wonder that Arista's troops are
now deserving him by hundreds, and will do so by
thousands, as he advances toward the possibility Of
having fight with the troops Of General Taylor.
We are glad to notice the active preparations
making by our government TO meet any exgency,
both by and land; and if Mexico should be fool
enough to make inroad into Texas, they will be
met upon the margin of the Rio Grande, and then
we will dictate terms of submission within the
"halls Of the Montezumas." We say this, not in a
spirit of bravado, nor with the least disposition to
use the superior physical force of this government
to bear down and crush weak and deenceless peo-
Pile like the Mexicans; but we would say that, if
Mexico, without cause, embarks in mad crusade
against the United States, thereby disturbing the
regular channels of commerce, and to the deriment
of all the peaceful relations now existing through
out the world we have an abiding hope, and we'll
grounded faith, that our government will "carry
their arms where they find their enemies" That
''no war of posis'' will be adopted, merely to pre-
vent these semi-barbarians from robbing our hem
roosts, but that an immediate advance upon the
cities of Mexico, Puebla, &c, and the capture of
Vera Cruz, will follow the first overt act of the
Mexican government The course taken by the
United States in the case of the Barbary powers
must be pursued in the event of a with Mexico;
and the demonstration should be made with suffici
ent means and energy to sirangie this puerile war
IN Its very inception.-.Ntc London Democrat.

THE FORTIFICATIONS AT ROUSE'S POINT
ON LAKE CHAMPLAIN


The Notifications now being erected at Rousc's
point, on an island in the lake, is within labout
eighty rods of the line, and was commenced last
year under the direction of Capt. Beaverton. The
present works are much larger than those COM
menced on the same site by Col. (then Cept) Tot
ten in 1878 The ground is not solid, and large
piles have been driven into the earth to great depth,
under the power of a sixteen hundred pounds ham,
mer, On these piles large timbers are laid, then a
thick timber floor, and next come the stones. The
foundation ofthese works. owing to the nature Of the
ground, requires great and skill, and admits of
but slow progress. The fort, when completed, will
be 40 so feet high; and it is situated within
few rods Of the channel of the lake, (Which here is
about 60 rods wide,) will be able to destroy any
thing ahoat which may attempt to pass it. There
are now upwards of a hundred men employed by
the day, and they are constantly increasing. Capt
Beaverton has recently been called to West Point,
and Lieutenant Mason has assumed the superin-
tendence ofthe work--a gentleman of superior tai
enis and requirements, and who is fast gaining the
esteem of the community.
We have Major Graham here aso--an astrono-
mer of superior talent, who has established an OBJ
servatory the public grounds, and is nightly en-
ployed in taking observations and making calcua-
lions. Major Graham is indefatigablc in the duties
of his station.
In addition, we have the Hon. Albert Smith, boun-
dairy commissioner, running, settling, and monu-
menling the boundary line.

From the N. O. Picayune. August q.

Since the departure of The artillery volunteers for
the State of Texas, the city has again reapsed into
its previous dullness. The volunteering for the
four regiments of infantry and rihemen is going
noiselessy but briskly on. The thunderstorm and
rain Of Friday evening somewhat purified the at
mosphere and abated the intense heat--the weather
is warm and sultry enough for anybody's business.
This would seem to be the general impression, too;
for not soul has remained in the city, excepting
those whose presence business renders indispensa-
bly, nect ssary. We question much, however, many
Of them, like the man who would not stop in pur-
gatory, may not go farther and fare worse. What
ever be the difficulties inconvenience to which
we are subjected, we can congratulate ourselves on
the continued good health of the city and although
il may be accounted premature to crow, yet many
are sangune that the destructive breath of postience
will not corrupt our atmosphere this season.
The clone Star Guard" WINS organized last even
ing in the third municipality and attached to the
regiment of Louisiana Volunteers. They will pa
rade with the regiment this morning, according to
orders.
Our readers hardly need to be reminded that the
volunteers are to be reviewed this morning in Lafay,
cite square, by Major General Gaines. We anti
cpaie a snowy and enthusiastic turnout on the oc-
cason.

The thunderstorm of Saturday appears to have
extended over large district of country. At Taun-
ton It was particularly severe and the Bristol print
works at that place were struck with lightning-oc-
casoning, however, little damage. In bingham, the
houses of Henry Hersey and Grdley Stodder were
somewhat damaged by lightning. The railroad in
Worcester was struck but the fluid was SO conduct
ed offby the rails that little damage was done. In
Fichburg barn was struck, and two heifers kill
ed In Hubbardstown, the barn Of Major Davis
was struck, and consumed with 25 or 80 tons Of
hay. The lightning also struck the house of David
White, and the chain shop Of H. Kendall in South
Gardiner In Tempeton, the barn of Mr.. Stock
well, and the woods adjoining, were set on fire by
the lightning. The meeting house and several
houses were also struck there. In Westminster,
the house of Isaac Searn was struck, and young
lady, Nancy Perry, instantly killed. barn was
burnt in Lunenburgh.
At New Haven, CT, The Lancaserian school
house, and the dwelling Of G. P. Stillman, were
struck.
On Staten Island, the store of Joseph Simons, a
porter-house, hickory pole, and the schooner
Elisha Brooks, were struck. A man named Jacob
Bush, at work under the bow of the schooner, was
so much injured that his case was regarded as very
critical.
At Sing Sing, in Westchester county, the light
ming struck the atore of Marshall g. Stevers, the
dwelling Of Judge A. lockwood, and in several
other places. In Mount Pleasant. sonie of the out
buildings of II. Rockwell were struck. In no case
however, was any person injured
We have accounts of the fury Of this storm Of
Saturday from New Jersey Pennsylvania, and so
down South. At Norristown, Pa, the rain fell in
torrents, raising the water of the Schuykl sudden-
y TO the height of ten feet, and carrying off bridges
mills, &c, and flooding lands and roads to the inn
minent danger of persons passing thereon The
lightning struck in several places in Norris,own,
and the house of Geo. Camm, some two miles off,
injnring the wife Of j. Camm of Bucks
county, and a Miss Camm of Philadelphia, and
stunning others of the household. Mrs G. was in
critical condition.--.4lbmy Argus.

This evenings mail brings no further news from
Mexico or Texas. The two following paragraphs,
which we take from the New Orleans Picayune OF
the 26th, embrace all the military intelligence re-
ceived by this mail;
"According to announcement, Major General
Gaines accompanied. by General Lewis, reviewed,
on Sunday, the regiment of volunteers raised by
Colonel Dalin, and which consisted of upwards OF
$50 men, The Orleans Ecaireurs, the Lone Star
Guard, and part of the Irish brigade, were upon
the ground General Gaines addressed the volun-
teers, assuring them that they would soon be called
into active service. This only has been wanting TO
induce the most active volunteering on the part OF
our enthusiastic population
"General Gaines has ordered two companies Of
infantry (aiely arrived here, route for Texps) to
Baton Rouge, for The protection Of the munitions OF
war there collected"
The New Orleans Bulletin of thosame date states
that the two companies Of regulars are under the
command Of Capt. Sewall.

MEXICAN VESSELS OF wAR.--About eighteen
months since, Messrs. Brown d Bell, extensive
builders of this city, received all order from the
Mexican government for six schooners of war, OF
about so tons burden each. They were completed
about six months since, and lay at the yard OF
Mcssrs. Brown & Bell, awaiting an order from the
Mexican government, accompanied with the money
which was to be paid for them. The order came,
with plea of inability to pay. About two months
since, however, three Of them were paid for, and
despatched; and the other three now lie at Messrs,
Browne Bells yard awaiting like demand.

OUR POLITICAL PROSPECTS IN GEORGIA NEVER
WERE BRIGHTER.

WERE BRIGHTER
Scarcely day passes without seeing or re-
ceivlng letters from every portion of the State
They are universally Of highly cheering charac-
ter. Never have the democracy of Georgia been
more united; never have they had candidate for
the governors chair who appears 10 have concern
tracd so completely upon himself the affections and
devotion of his party. In the Cherokee country
and among the mountains, we receive almost daily
assurances Of the fact, that Mr. McAster will OBJ
tain greater majority than given 10 the demo-
cratic party in The contest Of 1874 In that strong
hold of repubcansnl, his nomination appears to
have met with general reclamation. In Central
Georgia he will not lose democratic vote. In the
southern and southwestern counties, he will gain
greatly upon the wings. And in the southeastern
counties, along the seabonrd, we do not hesitate TO
say that the vote he will receive will greatly exceed
that which was given 10 MIR. Polk. All that is ne
cessary for the democracy do will be 10 come 10 the
polls. The wings are relying wholly upon their
staying at home. Let there be a general turn out
and they KNOW that George w. Crawford must be
Defeated 1t is the duty, therefore, Of every demo-
crat who feels spark of devotion for the great prn-
clples of civil liberty which have given its name to
his party TO be upon the ground and to do his duty
The elective franchise is high prcrogative. No
freeman, who can, should fail to exercise il. Rtcol-
in the election of Mr. McAllister but for loud and
decisive expression of feeling the part of the peo
pie against the leading measures of wing policy
There is an old saying, that "it is the first step
which costs" and this taken by the Multiplying
party IN Georgia when they took up Gen. Harrison
IL is equally true that il is the last blow which gives
the final and complete triumph; let this be struck
by the democratic party in l8i5-Sarannah Geor-
gian.
