In gold The Georgia left Havana on the "a
inst. but little sickness prevails in Havana. The
new Governor General is daily expected with two
thousand troops from Spain. The militia were
reviewed by the Governor General, and disbands al
on the 23d ut. Much indignation was excited
by The ungracious manner in which their arms
were required of them; large proportion Of the
muskets IN consequence, were returned to the
armory, unfit for use, having been dipped in salt
water and injured by various other means Cock
ades which once adorned the citizen soldiers, were
appended to the tails OF dogs, and otherwise con
temptuously treated. II said that upwards OF
two millions of dollars per annum was to be raised
for the support Of additional troops and other ex-
penses of tho Island. A French steamer of war
arrived at Havana on the lst inst, and exchanged
salutes with the town. No other foreign man-of-

~ The following is from the Lowell MssA)

American.
MAnsrkALERs In LOWELL I'VE understand
that one or more persons were in this city yes
terday for the purpose of capturing Dir. Booth,
the barber, who has shop near the Washington
House, very respectable man, who has been
in the city for some years. Mr. Booth was
formerly slave in Virginia. lie ia now in
Montreal, and his friends yesterday telegraphed
10 him that he had better remain there for the
present. We hope. however, he will return to
the city, for We think there are MEN enough in
Lowell who believe in the ~higher law" to pro-
tcct him against all the efforts Of the man.
stealers. In the meanwhile we recommend to
all persons who come to Massachusetts on th:.t
business, psrusal Of the account Of Haynau's
excursion to the London Brewery.
There arc not MEN enough in Lowell to act
on law high enough to keep seven thousand
young white women in that town out Of servi-
tude in factories, more aborious and unwho.e-
some than the slavery from which they talk Of
protecting these fugitive blacks.
There are not MEN enough in Massachusetts
to keep fifty thousand of her white women from
toll and confinement like that Of Lowell, and
yet that is the State that pretends to be dis
tresscd to distraction at the reclamation Of fugi-
tive slaves TO a servitudc where they have less
labor to do, less confinement to suffer, and less
privation to undergo than these white women
Of Massachusetts.
sB- The editor OF the Savannah Ne,cs goes
for the following and he is right.
lst. Congress should be required at its next
session to repeal the local law of Mexico, by
which the South is excluded from the United
States territories.
I'd. Congress should repeal, or so alter the
law adm itting California, us to preserve the line
of $780, and give the territory south of that line
territorial government with protection to
Southern property.
A series of measures tending to these or simi-
lar results, would give satisfaction to the entire
South, and silence forever the cry Of resistance
and disunion among our people. Such series
of measures would be but justcr to the South,
and We believe could be practically carried out
by the united and resoute action Of the South

at its late session, ordered geological and agri-
cultural survey of the State to be made under
the direction of Professor Millington, ofthe State
University, and gave very liberal appropriation
Of funds for carrying this desirable object into
immediate operation. A long list of statistical
inquiries has also been made out and printed,
and il now in circulation for obtaining authen-
tic information ON the state Of education, agri-
culture, and geology, together with the litera-
ture, history, and hcalthiness Of each particular

crushing machines have been ordered.
Business, hitherto backward, has given some
indications Of improvement. In Sacramento there
is decided briskness, and in this city there is
every reason to believe there will be greater activ-
ity in the course Of two weeks. The appearance
of the city is much improved by the fine rows Of
buildings lately erected, and the streets in pro-
gress of repair The great cost Of freights, ar
well the expenses Of building on the site of the
recent conAagra ton, have rendered money for
some time scarce, but the gold dust begins to come
in from the mines, and it will doubtless, from this
time for the remainder Of the season, continde to
flow in abundanily.
THE OVERLAND IMMIcRASTs.
A letter from Mr. Johnson, who took charge of
the company which started from Sacramento, with
supplies for the overland immigrants, is published
in the Placer Times 1t is dated Carson 8 River,
Ausust 3. He arrived there on the 5th, in I'D
vance of his tram, and found much destitution
among the immigrants. He bought up all the
-four that he could procure, and dividing IT into
rations of five pounds, distributed 1t as occnsion
required
The San Francisco Herald says:
There are now on the overland route not less
than sixty thousand persons. The first of those
who have arrived endured privations and suffer
ings innumerable, and it is but natural TO expect
that those " no come later in The season, will suf-
fer more severely still. The forty miles of desert
which stretch from the base of the Sierra Nevada,
are strewn with the bodies Of dead cattle, while
several persons have been found drowned, some
by accident in crossing the rivers, and more la
mentable STILL some by their own act, having been
driven to utter despair by their msfortures.
1t is proposed to send cut another expedition,
with the view Of establishing depot Of provisions
at the edge of the desert, and united effort is to
be made all over the State to aid in this charitable
undertaking. Wewsh that. by any feeble words
