TIE SANDWICH ISLANDS-Thc New York Tribune
lcarns by private advccs from the Sandwich Islands
that the question Of commencing negotiations for the
ccsson Of the sovereignty Of the Islands to the United
States upon such conditions as will secure to the in
aLitants all their civil rights and their property is
being generally discussed by the foreign residents in
the Islands 1t is the opinion Of our correspondent
that the general desire for such cesson will operate
upon the minds Of the King and Chiefs. The repre-
scntavcs of Great Britain and France arc very much
disturbed at this state of facts Accordingly, on Au-
gust 80 they asked audience Of the King and Privy
Council 'for the purpose of expressing their sent-
mcnts respecting some occurrences which they con.
ccive deeply involved in the sovereignty Of the King
and tho independence of the Islands" This had bee:
granted to take place after the date Of our dispatches
If these representatives speak highly of American
sympathy and so FORTH it is supposed there vii result
state of feeling which will drive the King to im-
mediate application to President Pierce. Very posi-
bly, the question of annexing the Islands may be
brought before the next Congress.

SrEAM.MIiL ExTaAoRDINAEY-We paid a
visit the other day to the new Steam Mil OF
Christie d Minis within four miles Of our vii
lagc, and must take this occasion TO record our
high satisfaction of what We there witnessed
The machinery was built and put in operation
by Mr.. George Sinclair, Of Columbia S. c. To
say thai it is crcditlblc to him as mechanic is
but mcagrc praise. We do not cxaggcrate IN as
Scrtng that it entities him to a high position
among the members of his craft. Every part Of
it is perfect and the whole has been put together
with the skill Of master workman. AS an evil
dcncc Of this, five hands can at this mill, turn
ont lumber at the rate of one thousand feet per
hour with single circular SAW This was done
in orr presence with apparent ease.
True merit ever deserves commcnda;ion and
we should b. lacking in our duty as u gazetteer,
did We fail to notice the excellent handwoYk Of
Mr. Sinclair as exhibited in the Steam Mill Of
Christie & Minis. We advise the owners Of P.
ney Woods throughout Ely2tiel'l to turn llcir
attention to Steam Mills. Well constructed and
properly managed, they must pay.

Our ScE.Vcl system.

We were sratlfied to perceive during the last
session OF the@Legislature SO much interest
manifested i'll our free school system, an inter
est resulting in step forward, in the shape OF
increasing the appropriation. One of the first
duties of tic State is TO educate her children,
and whatevermay he the amount required from
her Treasury to discharge this duty, we hold
that it is one of the wisest and most profitable
u:cs she could make OF it, The Legislature
did Il rairiofic thing, moreover in this ncrcas-
ed appropriation, for the more Of her children
she educates the larger nHrher ofgood ciizehs

CoTroH CRor.--We are assured by our far
mers that the late frost has cut off the cotton
crop at least one fourth. Throughout the up
country the cotton was several weeks later in

what was anticipated. The effect, we think,

The Editors of the n. o. Picayune have been
favored with the subjoincd extract from pri-
yate letter to a friend
Gen Gadsden, our Minister, is getting along
smoothly with this Government 1t is agreed
that neither American nor Mexican tr o;s shall
occupy the disputed territory in the Nlcsa Val
ley while negotiations are pending. THIS was
proposed by Santa Anna, and readily accepted
by Gen. Gad,dcn. The best feeling at present
seems TO prevail in the Government toward
Americans. For instance, an, American vessel
was detected in smuggling, Or at least pretty
strongly suspected, i'll the port If Acapulco; be-
ing detained, aud an officer having been placed
on board until an examination should take p!ace,
the Captain one night slipped his cable and put
to sea with the officer on board. He waS Iur-
sued, ovcrhaued and brought back, and then,
with all his crew thrown into prison. Ga d rep.
resentation from Gen. Cad dcn, however, the
vessel, Captain and crew were released.

Conn IN EAST FLoWInA-The only serious
objection we have heard urged against this now
f.voritc part OF Florida, is the great uncertainty
of the provision crop. We were speaking on
this point the other day to ncyhbor Of ours,
when he informed us that mutual friend Of Us
both (who had plantation in that part of the
country had made this year .ftty b"sAcls per
acre throughout his entire crop. This is mag
niticent-enouyh to make Jim Vaughn him
self smile with satisfaction. We are glad to
hear of such uccess,-hope somebody may make
such crops forever and day.
While writing the above, a gentleman comes
in from our public square and informs us that a
caravan Of six wagons with nigscrs and white
folks according, are just passing through our
place for this same East Florida. 1t seems that
they are all from Grccnvillc District. t.-W.

DECIM,TIoH.-A As an average calculation,
we believe il woul be fair to say that the yell
low fever has d"cmatcd all the communities
it has visited. Tnis estimate, if erroneous,
may he considered as below rather than above
the mark. The proPortionate loss is, perhaps,
smaller in New Orleans than in any other
town, but here it may be considered as en-.
bracing fully onc-tcnth Of our population. This
was our loss in three months and half Mo-
bile was decilnatel in one month. So of Gal
weston, Vick>burg, Thibodcanxand" other towns
Natchcz, with population estimated during
the summer below three thousand, lost, in two
months, three hundred and fifty. Bnt, perhaps,
the scvcrcst loss WAS III the small village of
Lake Providence, where Il population, never
cstimred over two hundred, the loss was one
hundred aud twenty. --Ncw Orleans Dcim
