POLITICAL ITEMS.

LIVINGSTON ARIsH. "A correspondent from Pom.
chatoula whose letter we have not room for gives
us an account of Breckenridge meeting at Tick
faw station, which was addressed by Hon. G. Ire
son Bradley. Mr.. B., our correspondent says, was
particularly severe on the Douglas men and on
the sub-elector on the Douglas ticket for boiling
the regular nominations 1.-THE committee of ar
rangements calledupon Bell man to take a chair
as VieePresident and another Bell man to go on
the stand and organize the meeting. They both
medestly deelined.a Our correspondent adds that
the Union cause is gaining strength every day and
that the people soon to be addressed by the en-.
ergetie and eloquent eleetor for the District, j. o.
Fuqua, Esq.
SIGNS Of THE TIMEs.--A vote was taken ON the
steamer Panlco (which runs across the ake) last
week, which resulted as follows: For Bell and Ey-
erett, l03; Douglas and johnson, 6s Breckenridge
and Lane. 81. A correspondent, who sends us the
above, adds:
The significance Of these figures will be more
apparent when il is remembered that the voters as
class are the representatives of an intelligent
and solid, and patriotic portion of the population
OF your cty--the wealthy Creees. 1t may be
easily inferred from the above, that were the two
wings Of the Opposition united Breckenridge would
be nowhere.
Too MucH HusnLIArIoN.-The Texan Advocate,
among other reasons for supporting Douglas and
johnson, gives the following;
First, we think that Mr. Breckenridge submitted
to toe much humiliation in accepting the nomina-
ton of boiling party, after having been over
looked by the National Convention.
PREFER EACH 0THER.-Hon. w. A. Richardson,
of Illinois, in a recent letter, says:
The advocates Of Breckinridge prefer Mr.. Lin.
coin to MF. Douglas, and the friends of Lincoln
prefer Mr.. Breckinridge to any other candidate
except Mr.. Lincoln. / believe the election of
either Lincoln or Breckenridge would menace the
peace, the quiet and the tranquility of the country:
and entertaining these views it is my duty by All
means in my power, to prevent the election of
either.
ANOTHER GUS FOR BELL I'VE learn from the
Tnskegee Republican that Gen. George w. Gum
is canyassing Macon county for Bell aud Everett
Ctr Orr AT rHE KNEES. ."-The Macon (Ala@
Republican says:
Virgil S. Murphey Esq, one of the Breekinridge
electors, who is stamping the county on his own
hook, was taken rather aback at Loachapoka the
ether day. Alter having, as he thought, weund
MI Bell up pretty etieetaaly in the web Of his own
record he confidently appealed to his audieace to
KNOW whom they would support. With q uaaniul-
oas q. voice they exclaimed, John Bell.r Mr.. Mur.
phey, who was probably not before aware thai
Loachapoka always votes one way, was doubtless
ratler surprised al this emphatic declaration of
brelelence for the only national candidate for the
sss rEssssslaeaey In November next the whole country

York journal of Commerce, a high.toned Demo.
craac paper writes as followss
Among Democrats who are net ofYice-holders OF
eSpectants, there is growing feeling iu favor of
Bell and Everett, and hope that New York or
Pennsylvania will withhold its electoral vote from
Lincoln, and thus permit the South to send Bell
to the House and Everett to the Senate. No one
honestly claims the election of Douglas or Breck-
inridge by the people. The only question is shall
the Democrats coaspire to elect Lincoln, with
view to spite each other.

Bell and Everett club of Allegheny City, Pa, was
tlaeld on Tuesday evening last The Pittsburg Pest
(Demoorstio) says of it:
The attendance surprised the most sangEine
friends OF the Constitution and the Union, and gave
them moro courage to persevere in their work.

PHOTOGRAPHS FROM gALLooN.-our readers,
Says the Providence Journal OF the 17thinst., will
remember with pleasure the account which Dr..
Heime OF this city gave in the Journal Of balloon
ascension which he made in Boston on the 4th of
July He suggested in his narrative the possibility
sof taking photographic views from the balloon.
The idea has been active in his mind ever since.
accordingly, he and Mr.. Black, Of Boston, re-
nowned photographer, made the proper arrange
ments with Messrs. King and Allen, of this city, for
ascending in order to Try the experiment. They
were delayed by the unpleasant weather, and then
BY unfortunate accident to the valve of the gas
pipe, which prevented them from filling their bal
loon AZ an early hour yesterday. In the afternoon,
however, the imitation was completed, and Mr.
Black ascsnded to tie hight Of twelve hundred
feet his balloon being held by rope, where seve-
raj attempts were made. Tho higher ascension,
which would have furnished more extended view,
was necessarily postponed, because the clouds
arose and obscnred the sky. The entire results
cannot be known until the negative plates are fully
developed; but we learn that Mfr. Black regards it
- demonstrated that hird's-eye views may be
taken in this way. The experiment is one Of great
interest.

Ea Cresceat--You will oblige me by contradict
ing rumor, said to be current in New Orleans, that
the works at Ship Island had been destroyed and
the'foroe employed carried away by the late gale.
The fort in course of construction was not dam
aged, nor is it supposed it will be by any similar
gale. The wharts and plank roads leading to the
works were carried awayi one temporary build.
ing, having been undermined by the waves, fell
down; several chimneys were blown down.
The force at the island, during the night of the
18th and morning of the 18th, gave all the assist
sance in their power to the survivors from the
steamer Young. The u. S. schooner Baker, on the
18TH brought over thrteenpersons from the island,
seven belonging to the steamer Young and five to
the yacht Randall, capszed of the west end of
Ship Island on the 18th. One of the crew of the
Young died at Ship Island on the morning of the
18th. On the 14th the body of an unknown man
was found by some of the employees en- the east
end of the island, and handed over to the care of
two of the crew Of the steamer Anna, who it is be-
lieved buried him. The steamer Anna was in
search Of the survivors of the steamer Young.

THE JuDGE AND THE HIGH SnERIFF.--A queer
scene was lately enacted in an English court.
About the middle Of the day the grand jury, having
concluded their business, came into court with the
remainder Of the bills and Mr.. Justice Blackburn
dismissed them, thanking them in the usual form
for the assistance they had rendered to the admin
istratIon Of Justice. It appears that the High
Sheriff Of the county had requested the learned
Judge to pay the same compliment to the gentle.
men who had attended, but who had not actually
served On The grand jury as many OF them had
come Q considerable distance to perform the duty,
but The learned Judge said he considered It in,
necessary TO do so and it was understood that the
High Sheriff expressed his intention Of thanking
them himself. When the Judge had addressed the
grand jury he was about to proceed with a trial
that was before the Court; the High Sheriff rose
and, addressing number of magistrates who we're
on the bench, said that be also-here Mr.. Justice
blackburn interposed, and said that he could not
allow the High Sheriff to proceed. The High
sheriff seemed determined to go on, when the
learned Judge laid his hand on his shoulder, and
said shat he could not permit him to speak. The
High Sheriff still persisted, and the Justice
threatened that Il he did not desist he would
aine him. This had no effect the Sheriff would
not sit down, and the Justice said Mr..
aiigh Sheriff, feel myself called upon to fine you
Eseo1 This had no effect upon the High sheriif,
and the Justice then threatened to commit him for
contempt Of court and interfering with the admin.
istration of justice. The High Sheriff thereupon
resumed bis seat, and the event caused great SEN
aatiun among the magistrates, who were yery mn.
znerous IN the town, and the bar. It was reported
4hata correspondence had passed, in which Mr..
Justice Blackburn offered to remit the fine, and
that Mr. Evelyn, in answer, only sent the Judge
. ckaek for the money. Afterward Mr.. Scarlet
and other gentlemen we're seen 10 be in conversa,
