The Union Springs Gazette complains of tho inadequacy of the Mobile and Girard Railroad, as nt present equipped, to transact tho business of the country traversed by it. After noticing tho mergelic steps taken by President t*eale anti others to prosecute the mtruction of (he Montgomery and Ui Springs Railroad expeditiously, it says: "The great necessity of thin rood is very ■verely felt at this particular Mt-biJo Jk. Girard Rond has recently' met ih a suceuf-hiun id reverses which has idercd it inadequate to the business of the Road. Although we feel satisfied that Ma- Howard, tho Ptebidcnt of tho Kuad, is exerting himself to tho utmost, wo would respectfully siiirgesi the propneiy of pur chasing n neVEngine, in order to obviato the great inconvenience Planters and others a>e subjected to in the delay of shipments. Wo have recently heard of Cotton being hauled from this Depot to (Montgomery and Kuluula, which should noi snd would not tucilities lor transportation over were •ufliciout. Wo sincerely hope to seo tins matter remedied." We nra suliahod that the misfortunes of tho 11 ad, nnJ not the neglect of tho Presi dent, are thejf causo of tho inetliciency complain* d of. The Occidents which have disabled tho engine* of tho road could not have been foreseen. Wo learn that another engine was last week disabled, after tho appearance of tho Gazette's article ; hut wo heard at the same lime a report (which wo presume to bo the truth) that M«j. Howard was making an eiTort to borrow temporarily an engine or two from the Muscogeo Road. We hope thut ho has been successful, ihnl very soon the road will be enabled to do all its business tvlth dispatch. The Constitutional ConvonUoti. The hill providing for the call of Convention to revue the Constitution w: dufealrd in I he benatu on Friday, upon point ui order, and with it fell tho only chance of Electing a reduction of thi number of members, of the Legislature Regarding this as ihe\aot.t important ques tion of tho session—believing thi people of Urn (Stale desired and expected this reform to ho initiated by the Legisla ture, and will be disappointed by its fail' —wo join the Southern Recorder in appeal to the people *qo hold its opponents to a strict account lor their vote." As we have said, thu bid waa defeated in the Benulu upon a point ol order, but thn vote on that point n<> doubt correctly indi- catea the intuntion of each Senator to call or defeat tho Convention—tho Recorder soya that “it was no doubt lbe settled pur pose on Hie purl of its opponents'’ to defeat (he bill. The point raised was that a bill similar in its character had been indefinitely postponed, and necotding to the Constitu tion tho tuiue subject could not come up again. 'I'bis point ol order was auaiainud by the Semite. Mr. McGehee moved to re-consider tbj> vole on tho point of enter. Mr. Harris raised another point, (hat n motion could riot be' twice re-considered, and this point was sustained by the Senate —thus d. leafing the Convention hill (or tho suasion— by tho following vote: H 1 Yeas—Messrs. Allred, Atkinson, Halt: < I Boggs, Burnell, By ~ ~ * * The Responsibility Fixed. The question, which of tho two parties from the South will bo responsible if a Black Republican is elected Speaker, has length l>eeu settled beyond further cavil. The '‘South Americans” have obtained foi their candidate enough conservative vote* from the North to have elected him if the National nr Administration Dunocrary had voted for him, and this without tbo aid ol ingle Douglas Democratic vote. On the 7th balloting, Mr. Gilmer, a Southern man nd one of the largest slaveholders in the louse, obtained 3G votes, comprising 2* South Americana" and a few conservative Northern Opposition members. With the 80 votes cast on that balloting for Bocock, he would have had 122, or 8 more than enough to elect. But tho Democracy would K givu up party for the axko of dcioating Black Republican. On tbo other hand, tho Democracy have ;ver yet cast for Mr. Bocock, their caucus nominee, votes enough to elect biin with tho entire Southern Opposition support. They have never yet rallied their owu entira parly, either North ar South, for Uncock. Boasting 101 members of tho House—so published and classified day after day by the Congressional Globe, the official paper of Congress—they have never polled for r 88.

J r r< Rccoiving and Forwarding BraiNW, AT Tl/K LOWELL WAREHOUSE, Another tact ought to bo taken into consideration. The Democracy are running a kind of fishy, compromise candidate, who refuses to say whether he will support Douglas or his squatter sovereignty form of frceaeil, while Mr, Gilmer repudiates bath. The Southern Democracy have voted for this kind of a man, for party merely, with out a hope of electing hun ; hut when they have a chance to elect a Southern niun who repudiates abolitionism in all its forms, they reluse to embrace the opportunity ! The question, which party will bo responsible if a Black Republican should bo elected, is no longer an open one. In this connection, wo refer to the. fair and truthful correspondence of tho Now York Daily Hews, copied in another col umn. Though the News is a National cratic paper (snd its correspondent is of the same stripe), it does justten to the South Americana” and acquits them of II responsibility for the present vt*ato of thu controversy.

Ueown, considering that it supported' him in the late canvnsa and didendcd him from charges of resorting te tbo sets of the desstgogue and aspiring to Federal offices, when pre ferred by the Opposition, it now thinks that he works through “tools,’' that ho has had bnlh (lie United Stales Bsnate ami the Presideney in view, and that the action of the late Democratic State Convention leaves him “no capital to trade opon.” "Poor J#e”! wo thought that the Bute Road and its profit* were hit capital, inalienable and all-powerful.

Of these, tho five from Illinois have from the first voted lor Mr. Bocock. Tho other eight have scattered their vote* among them selves. Thoro are 237 members of tho House; but tho highest number present at any of the balloting* baa born 831.

From this, It appear* that Gov.

Senator* Ivcraou, IJI^lcr and Pugh. From tho National Intelligencer. In Srsatk, Dec. 12.—-Mr. Iverson, rising to make a personal explanation, stated that in his remarks made on a previous day, ex- prcstivR of doubts with regard to the sound ness of a portion of the Northern Dernoc- tac'y, he did not allude to (heir views on the conduct end acts of John Brown at Har per’s Ferry, but to (Leir opinion* on the Territorial question—a manor which ho regarded of vital importance to tho South. In pronouncing the Douglas Democracy "corrupt and corruptible,” ho spoke in a political, and not in a personal or moral ; hut, believing ns ho did in the right ol Southern ■laveholdcrs to carry their prop- tslavo* into the common Territories of thn Union, and believing it to bo the duty f CongrcHS to provide for the protection of that property by law, ho could not accept ny other docUtno na sound oil this subject. Mr. Bigler regretted (ho remarks made hy Mr. Iverson, nnd (fought that Senator was exceedingly unjust to the Northern Democracy, who not only had no sympathy with Abolitionists, but were every whe^do- nuuncii) at tbe North as "dough face*,” hucnuBU of their alleged subserviency ^to Houthern dictation, lt is truo that North ern Democrat* had their own views with regard to tho propriety of establishing sla very in a Territory like Kansas, whoso »oll and climate they thought, and bad a right to think, were holier adapted to white than slave labor; hut Northern Democrat* had ever Blood hy the constitutional rights of the South, and their zeal met with a poor re ward in the*o auspicious cast upon them without foundation. He presumed that he bad himself spent hours, where Mr. Iverson bad spent minutes, in enforcing the ju*t rights ot the Houth. Thu Democrat* uf tho North watched with interest lbs lan guage held by Southern Senators on that floor, nnd those Bunaloru could do much to cripple tho energies of their political friends in thut section. Mr. Pugh aaid that he had no with to take part in thi* diacuasiou at the present time, hut ho desired to serve notice on Mr. Iverson, and on all who concurred in thn opiniou* of that .Senator, that ho would take occasion at a fuiuro day to ascertain cntegori'-ully their precise view* on tho ques tion ut isBUc. Ho wanted to know how many Southern Senators shared the opin ion* uf Mr. Iverson with regard to tho duty of Northern Democrats, snd ho wished to know this before the meeting ol the Charles ton Convention. Mr. Iverson staled that ho would Do ready to answer Mr. Pugh to his heart'* content whenever it might please him to make his intonogalories. ••Cousin John” J. Thrasher. In tho Houao of Representatives, last week, when the bill to amend tho charters of the city of Atlanta and the town of War- reulon waa under consideration, Mr. An derson of Bibb offered an amnndinent to exempt nun-rosidunls from tho provisions of the Bill. Mr. Thrasher of Fulton responded, (saya tho correspondent of the Auguata ••Dis patch”) urging (hat the gentleman repre sented a Railroad interest, the President of which is afraid he will be prevented from stopping up the streets and forced to more his depot. Other cities had just exactly lbe provision* asked in thin cb^rter. When Atlanta was aettfed the streets were laid out in view of making a «mall town. They now havo 12,000 inhabitants, and expect ■mm to havo 50,000 more, and they want Ihe power to widen *troets and n*in«s datu- ogos, Jo*t a* other cities and railroad* do. Mr. Williams of Muscogee wa* opposed .0 giving such extraordinary power* to small rived on Ihe Island when tbe General left, Lopez, not GaiTotod. A correspondent writing from Marion Alabama, to tbo Hempstead Courier, tells th* following extraordinary story : ISince the death of Sruor Francisco de O'Gsrcia, a Cuban creole, worth totno four millions of dollar*, aotno interesting devel opments hove been innde. The deceaed wa* thu intimate friond of Narcisso Lopez, and was implicated in tho Binto difficulty. The papers left hy the deceased prove that the person gnrrotcd in 1851, and believed by all the w*rld l» bo Nsrcisco Lopez, was somebody else; that Lopez was not garret- ed, but, through Ihe influence of ben or O’* Garcia, a substitute was procured ; Lopez was exoculed by proxy. Whether the au thorities or General Concha connived at this proceeding, we have no means of know ing ; neither have wo any authentic inform ation of tho *fate of Lopez. There wna a ■lory current, a few year* ago, in the town of Linional, district of Matanxu*, and not fin from Cardonas, that n stranger who inhabi ted a house then belonging to U’Garcin, bore a striking likeness to Lopez, in 1853 this stiangcr, who held intercourse with • of U10 Cutli* audience, but the hisaers expelled by the police, and ordor was preserved during the delivery of the lecture. The excitement now appears to be sub siding. .
