WASHINGTON, July 10.
The rush for the new gold region of Frazer's
river is not 10 be- compared To California.
The spirit Of adventure has been excited in
the Atlantic States. aud were al quaIe means
of transportation to be found thousands Of
persons would in these duh times seek their
fortunes in the new III Dorado. There is the
more need of haste for the purpose of secur-
ing lots 10 the numerous towns aud cities that
are To be laid out in aud aroand the land OF

still further north, when they shall become
accessible. Ii is supposed with good reason,
that the auriierous region of which California

crossing Behring's Straits into Siberia aud

was found productive before the gold dis

tide OF southern TraveI RUINED.

A friend residing in an adjoining State, who
recently returned from Cincinnati, informs US
that the hotel registers of that city exhibit at
present but few arrivals from the Southern
States. He asked of us the probable cause !?
An all-suffcient answer-was found in our ho-
tells. one of which alone showed near agh hun
dyid arrivals in one treek :! The Southern travel
is changed to the Southern States through our
city and along the great Southern route to
Washington City. Southern men are now
employing their own railways, and spending
their money and leisure hours at their own
watering places where they are secure from
Abolition annoyance and robbery. Who will
question their right to adopt this long delayed
course of just resentment, and who does not
know that if firmly persisted in as we hope
it will be a lesson will be taught our North
ern enemies. which, :. sounding in dollars and
cents Twill be, apt to bring them to their senses?
Let them try for while the experiment of
getting along without the means derivable
from negro slavery which they are so intent
TO destroy. 1t will not be long before they
get tired of it, when we may look for some
thing like fairness at their hands. We have
long appealed in vain to their magnanimiiy,
comfy and sense of even-handed justice. Let
US now speak to their interests TO their pOck-
cts and to this end let Southern men stay at
home. confine their travel to the Southern
States, and spend their money at home, where
it will not be used as the means for their de-
struction.-Nenphis appeal.

The Most Unkfndest Cut of All.

For several months past. the Montgomery
Mad, following the ack-o'lantern of South
ern Rights Democracy" has been running
hand in hand with the Advertiser of that city.
One unacquainted with the antecedents of the
two papers would have noted tn m down as
twin-brothers in politics-so affectionately did
they agree on all points. But startling
change has very recently come over their
dreams. Though Hooper has made himself
lame of Leg in his efforts to keep up with
tie Advertiser, the latter suddenly turns its
love into something like contempt. and in
dignantly spurns the charge ofaffiliation with
the whilOm organ of the American party
Well may the innocent editor of the Mail
exclaim in the language of the noble Roman,
"The most unkindest cut of air. We trust
that this will prove salutary lesson to the
kind-hearted, honest and patriotic editor of
the Nail The Democracy talk nobly patriotic
about Union of the South, ian Undivided
South" &c, but when a Wing or American
takes them at their word. and presumes TO
throw up his hat in the front ranks, "a wet
blanket is thrown over his shoulders and he is
carried back where he can't disturb the Dem
ocratic chiefs by his enthusiasm.
We trust the Mua will not deem US imperti-
nent. Our object in citing this instance of
Democratic sincerity is to give reason for the
lack of faith in us, and TO warn our Ameri-
can friends of the danger of putting their
trust in Democratic Princes.-Hdrion (-4Ld)

Official Account OF the Failure of tn
Atlantic Telegraph.

A copy of Mr.. Fields official report to the
Directors of the Company reached Liverpool
shortly before the Kangaroo sailed. From
this report the following particulars are con-
dcnscd =
Soon after leaving Plymouth the Tele-
graph feet experienced heavy weather, which
continued for several DAYS The Niagara
lost sight of the AgamemnOn on the 2lst
June. On the 23d the Niagara arrived at the
appointed rend eZvous in mid-Occan, viz. lat.
52.O2. Ion. 33.IS, and found the Valoroue and
Gorgon there. The Agamcmnon arrived on
the 2jth, and reported experiencing a cOntin-
uauce of heavy weather. On the 26th the
weather was ry fine, splice was made on
the Agamrmnon and the paying out COM
menctd at noon. Shortly afterwards the ca
BILE got off one Of the groves on the Niagara,
and break occurred after about two miles
had been paid out Another splice was spec d.
lily effected, and the paying out was recon-
mcnccd. On the 9th, shortly after noon. the
electrical current ceased. and the Niagara
began to haul in hut Slly about 100 fathoms
were recover, d., when the cable parted-the
quantity lost from the Niagara being ~ miles
and 800 iathoms. About this time the ship
Alice Monroe bound from Liverpool, for
Boston, was spoken. ard letters were sent by
her to America The ships all returned to the
rendezvous aud on the 2Sth deputatiOn
from the Niagara went on board the Againcm-
non and found that the accident did not hap
pen ON board that ship. \ consultation was
held, and il was determined To recommence
operations. with the understanding that II an
other break should occur before the ships were
one hundred miles from the rendezvous they
should return and effect still another splice,
but if II break should occur beyond that dis
lance they should proceed ut once to Queens
town. At 2.25 on this day, paying out was
again commenced. and all went on favorabiy
until the 18th at 9.lS p. NJ. when signals
ceased To pass through the cable. a variety
OF tests were resort to but without effect.
The cable was fastened on board the Niagara,
and shortly after midnight il parted astern of
the ship making the total loss from the Mia
cara alone II little over 1870 miles. As test
of the strength of the cable, the Niagara re-
manned anchored by it for nearly two hours,
Notwithstanding that the depth of water was
over 1000 flthoms aud that the wind was
quite fresh at the time The Niagara and
Gorgou then returned to Queenstown expect
ing To find the Agamemnon and Nalarous
there but those vessels had not been heard OF
at the close of our dispatch The cause OF the
failure Is not known, and it remains to be
seen whether the AgamemnOn 5 report will
throw any light on tine subject. The paying
out machinery worked perfectly"
1t is shown by the result of this attempt
that there is still plenty Of cable left, and al
though nothing definite had been determined
upon, the impression in England was that
after coaling the vessels would Immediately
renew the effort to lay the cable.
