THE COMMERCE. OF THE EAST.

The newspapers Of the country are noticing at
length the late successful voyage Of the steamship
Colorado, which vessel arrived at San Francisco,
March aOth, from Hong Kong and Yokohama. 1t
is argued with much plausibiity, that the new
route will produce considerable changes in the
eourse of Eastern commerce, and that in future
the bulk Of it will pass through the United States.
The Richmond D,spatal bays:
remarkable event has just occurred, which We
may consider as the forerunner OF commercial
revolution which is to give this Empire" control
Of the East India: trade. The Pacific Mail Steam
on the 1st day Of January and reached Yokohama,
Japan, on the 22d, and Hong Kong, China, on the
SOeh of that month returning, it sailed from the
latter port on the 17th and from the former on the
the 10th instant. The adv,ces by the Colorado
were selegraPhed to New YORK, and appeared in the
papers of that city on the 21st. The same inteli-
sence vas directly forwarded to London, and
reached that city at least twenty days in advance
of the date at which it would have been received
there by way OF the Cape or the Isthmus of S3uez.
The Colorado was the first steamship that ever
made the round trip from San Francisco to China.
By her, news is placed in London from Hong Kong
in thirty-two days, and from Yokohama II twenty.
Two days The commerce WILL FOLLOW the hne o
the intelligence and wnen the Pacific railroad, OF
railroads ere completed, this country will moncpo-
lie the Chief trade of the East Indies, and ever

BRUTAL ATTEMPT AT HoMIoDE-Ye Yesterday
morning, between and 10 O'Clock, most brutal
assault was perpotrated on the person Of Mr.: ELL
jah Ashworth, Of Dawson county. The particulars
of the unfortunate occurrence are as follows, and
may be relied on as correct, for they gathered
from most reliable source. =. -,
! Mr. Ashworth had been in the city with his
wagon, and on Friday was trading in the store Of
he camped in Langston's wagon yard, on the same
street, and yesterday morning started on his way
home, in company with another gentleman, whose
name we were unable to learn. s-1--i':
Whom about five miles from the city, on the
Peachtree road, and on top Of the hill some two
negro on the roadside leaning upon the fence.
They spoke to him and passed on by. AS soon as
they had passed the negro ran up behind tLe
wagon, and aiming navy pistol at the old gentle-
man, who was sitting In the wagon fired and dse-
verely wounded him in the back. The negro tEen
ran around the wagon and attempted to shoot the
other man, who was walking by the side of. the
horses, but the pistol snapped In the meantime
the horses; taking fright, commenced running, and
tho man at whom the pistol was snapped ran after
them, endeavoring to stop them, the negro maxi
ing no attempt at pursuit.
Just as the wagon had CROSSED the bridge over
the creek, Mr.. Ashworth was jostled out, and was
taken into the house of Mrs. Plaster, where he
now lies severely wounded.
We learn from DR.. James Alexander, the atten-
dant surgeon, tnaG inc Dau LOOK eHect IN Gne pacK
near the spine, on the right side, and though in
hicdng severe wound, tits hoped not mortal
one. zEsa7-s-' j5-5zs=
The gentleman who was accompanying MIR.
Ashworth, states that he saw several negroes in
Adamson's store at the time Ashworth was trading
there, and that he recognized the negro who COM
mitted the deed as one Of them.
Soon after the occurrence o large n1mber Of the
neighborhood people collected and commenced
pursuit Of the william. They tracked him across
the creek, and at last accounts, were still tracing
him, with q fine prospect Of SUCCESS.
The attendant circumstances render no doubt
Of the fact that O cowardly and brutal homi-
eide was attempted for the purpose OF robbery.
We trust the feud may be captured
