COLUMBUS: Tiittday NornliiKi January !4U, 1850. LARUKHT CITY CIRCULATION. Post-Office Investigation. A special Agent of the l’ost-Oftice Depart ment has for several days been in this city in vestigating the causes of the loss of several valuable letters. Yesterday a young man na med John Chisholm, who lias occasionally been engaged in the l’ost-offico of this city as an as sistant, was arrested on a charge ot abstract ing letters from the office, and an examination of the case is fixed for this morning at!) o’clock. We are informed by Deputy Marshal Robin son that we were mistaken in saying that he had his pocket picked at the circus. It was another gentleman of that name. PMr. Singleton, a Representative in the last pngress from Mississippi, has been nomine ed and confirmed Consul to Havana. We notice that Mr. Hilliard, of Alabama, did not fulfil his appointment to lecture on slavery in Hoston ; hut we have not learned the cause of his failure. He was reported to be very unwell a few weeks ago. We arc not in formed whether Mr. Toombs still adheres to his purpose to discuss the question with the abolitionists. The Cahaba (Ala.) Gazette runs up the names of Franklin Pierce for President and Al exander H. Stephens for Vice President. It would not surprise us if this ticket should be irougly supported in the Cincinnati Conven tion. Col. Joel Riggs, late Comptroller of the State of Alabama, has become a joint proprietor of the Montgomery Mail. There are already in Russia 0,000 miles of telegraph wire, all of which aro continually used for official despatches. She has also tho longest railroads and canals in the world, and is progressing faster, with her manufactures, commerce, and additions to her territory, than any other nation except tho United States. Too Hard upon “ Sam.” Tho Hoard of Directors of the Hank of Ten nessee—at the head of which is the Hon, Cave Johuson—have recently passed a resolution that in the selection of Hoards for tho Hraucb es of tho Hank, no man should ho appointed to Hie position of a Director who belonged to the Know Nothing order. The Washington Globe announces an ad vance of two or three cents per acre in land warrants, but thinks that tho limited supply in market—caused to somo extent by the in terruption and delays of tho mails—is tho cause of tho advance ; and it anticipates a de ■ line as soon as the mails become regular. It slat os that tho issuo from the Pension Office now averages about 600 warrants per day. Congress. The substitution of Mr. Orr in the place of Mr. Richardson, as the Democratic candidate lor Speaker, does not yet appear to have much improved the chances for an early organiza tion, if we are to judge by the vote taken on tlie 24tli inst. Hanks received 96, Orr 08.— Most of the Southern Know-Nothings still vo ted for Mr. Fuller, although lie had withdrawn his name as a candidate. On tho same day whilo the Clork was call ing tho roll for the election of Speaker the Door-keeper announced a message from the President. Campbell, of Ohio, objected to its reception. On a sudden an excitement sprung up all over tho Hall; much turbulence ensued. Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, moved that the message bo received and demanded the previ ous question which was agreed to. Tho President’s message was ordered to be read, it was the same as tho one sent to the Senate; after reading it was laid on tho table, ‘flic llouso then adjourned. Later advices from Hayti fully confirm the defeat of Souloque (dubbed Faustin 1.) by the Dominicans, lie marched thirty thousand of his black troops against the Spaniards, but they Hod in confusion after losing only two or three hundred killed in the battle. Tho Span iards captured all their munitions of war, pro visions, and the sable Emperor's military chest containing all the funds he had raised for the prosecution of the war. Souloque himself es caped (probably being the first to run), and his place of refuge was unknown, but the Do minican General had offered a large reward for bis head, and the probability was that it would be brought in, as tho Negroes had turn ed against him. A “ peculiar institution” of the abolitionists is therefore in great danger, and it behooves them to render “aid and comfort” to their black sovereign and his government. Greeley, Sumner, Giddings, Hanks—are they not all mighty men of valor ? and why are they not already in the field ? The Sight to Naturalise. At tho present time, when the subject of naturalization and the rights of foreigners en gages so much of the attention of politicians, a decision lately made by the Supreme Court of California possesses some interest. Tho case came up on the application made by an alien directly to the Supromo Court to become naturalized under tho provisions of the consti tution and laws of the United States; aud the opinion was delivered by Judge Iloydonfeldt, formerly of Russoll county, Ala. It is adverse to the local enactments of some of the States. Tho lioll 1. The power to naturalixe is made a judi cial power by the act ot'Congress. -• Congress cannot confer any judicial pow er upon a State Court. :i. The provision of the Constitution of the United States, which grants to Congress the power to establish “An uulform rule of natu ralization, ‘ is construed to mean—that tho rule when established shall bo executed by the States. C The Legislature of California has, by ex press enactment, conferred jurisdiction ou the District i ourts of the* JStateto grant naturali zation, according to the rules established by Congress. J Tho opinion is nn interesting and closely ar gued one. but we hare not space to devote to it. The Action of Last Night’s Council Session At the meeting of the Council last bight, a ‘ communication from Gen. Semmes was read, ; announcing that he had reconsidered his reso- ‘ lution not to insist on the dissolution of the injunction restraining the Council from con summating the contract for the sale of city stock in the Muscogee Railroad to Messrs. Patten and Mustinn, and that he should prose cute it to the Supreme Court. Whereupon Aid. Jones offered a resolution to the effect that the present Council, by its proceedings in reference to the matter, did not consider that it was ratifying the contract of the old Council. This resolution, on motion, was laid on the table, after a spirited debate. The Council then reconsidered its action at the last regular meeting adverse to a ratifica tion of the contract: and Alderman Slade thereupon offered a resolution ratifying the or iginnl contract with Patten and Mustian, which, for want of a lull Hoard, was laid on the table. A resolution was passed, on motion of Aid. Chapman, authorizing the finance committee to borrow 331,000 or 35,000, for the purpose of meeting the debt of Patten and Mustian, and paying an instalment of interest shortly to fall due, on the bonds of the Mobile and Girud Rail Road. Tho Council cas*“l icsolutiou requesting ..... Senator and Representatives to endeavor to procure such legislation as will enable the city to sell certain unimproved lots in its north eastern section. Spain. The Madrid Gazette, of December 12th, con tains a royal degree sanctioning tho bill adop ted by the Cortes, which declares Spain an in violable asylum for foreigners, and that the giving up of political refugees shall never be consented to in any treaty for the extradition of criminals. Treaties between nations for the extradition of fugitives from justice, except for political offences, arc now becoming very common.— Their practical operation has been found of great benefit both to the nation demanding and to that delivering up tho criminal—they vindicate the outraged law and peace of the one, and protect the other from the addition of a murderer or knave to its population. And though most of the nations making these trea ties have not included political refugees, Spain is, so far as we arc informed, the first Euro pean power that has announced the principle as a settled policy of the government. It is an honorable ami liberal enactment of her rul ers, and bespeaks a remnant yet of her former greatness and spirit. Still further by the Baltic. Nkw Youk, Jan. 24. The lialtic brought advices from Londou ‘to the morning of the 12th inst. Advices from Montevideo announce that a revolution occurred on the 26th of Nov., and that tho city for four days was the scene of a bloody conflict—loo having been killed and a much larger number wounded. Order was restored on the 29th Nov., when Munoz and the revolutionary party embarked for Buenos Ayres in the steamer. Diplomatic agents and foreigners residing in Montevideowero requir ed to maintain a strict neutrality. Advices from St. Petersburg to the 3d inst., state that the War Council had declared its de liberations, and that it had transpired that the Russian tactics for the approaching campaign had undergone important modifications, and that orders had been sent from head quarters which indicate the intention of abandoning the Crimea, part of the troops having been order ed to reinforce Mouravieff, and others to join tho Grand Army of the Centre. Advices from Kiel to the Bth inst., state that tho waters were still open, and that the trade between the lower Baltic ports and those of I Russia was carried on with great activity. An American ship had arrived at Mentel, and was loading witli hemp yarn. The London Post has direct advices, which do not confirm the capture of Herat by tho Persians. Tho Outrage on an American Ship at Hong Kong. Wo have already published a short account ot the boarding of the American barque Rein deer, Capt. Nichols, of New York, at Ilong Kong, by a mob of English police, white and blacks, who forcibly took from her one of her men, who luul been placed in irons for mutin ous conduct, aud the fact that the captain w as subsequently fined by the English authorities s7o, for an alleged assault upon the mutineer who shipped at Now York as an American, but who declared he was an English subject on his arrival at Hong Kong. The outrage on t upt. N. lias called forth an earnest protest trom a number of American residents and mas ters of the American ships at Hong Kong.—| They speak in high terms of the conduct of I James Keenan, Esq., the United States consul I there, and of Capt. McClung, of the United ! states steamer Powhatan, on board of which Uapt. Nichols was compelled to take refuge Among the signers of the protests aro Thomas i H. Bohaettor, of Baltimore, and Wm. R. Yates ‘ of Norfolk. Coriv!<|Himlt>iiro of tlio Augusta Constitutionalist. Fire in Waynesboro'. Waynksbobo’, Ga., Jan. 2b, 1850. Jas. Garosku, Emj —/tear Sir: The town of Waynesboro’ presents a novel appearance to-day. Last night about twelve, our Court House was discovered to be on tire. It was burned down, ami the great mass of the Court papers destroyed. The Sheriff’s office, and the Ordinary’s were in the lower story of the ( ourt House, and with some exceptions, all shared the same fate. I’he firm ot Gray & Buford's store ami ilwel ling house were destroyed. Also, the law offices of Berrien \ Jones, Jones & St urges aud Miller & Maudcll. lam happy to inform you my own office escaped. The injury done to these gentlemen by the fire is very great. 1 cauuot as yet say the total loss sustained by the tiro, but several thousand dollars will have to be counted. The residence of Mr. Gray, Postmaster, was insured for fifteen hundred dollars, but it does not begin to cover the loss of the building. Every effort was made to I subdue tho fiery element in its course, bv our , citizens, who were present. Great credit is duo Mr. Clarke, who is now here building our new fire-proof house for the records. Also to Mr. Broom and Mr. Foster. It was only with the utmost endeavors that the entire town was not consumed. When I write you agaiu, I will give vou the amount of losses, kc. Yours, &c. J. B. ][ Hie Baltimore and Ohio Railroad train which arrived at Wheeling on Tuesday required the force of thirteen locomotives for tho passage from Baltimore to that city. The freight bu siness on the road has entirely stopped. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. Thuekdat, Jan. 24. Senate.— The bill appropriating money to tho Georgia Military Institute, defeated yes terday, was reconsidered and referred to a committee to-day. A bill certifying tho wholeof the statutory pro visions, and remodelling and changing our laws on the subject of Attachments and Garnish ments, was taken up to-day in the Senate, dis cussed, amended and passed. In tho afternoon the bill creating anew Cir cuit from Clinch, Ware, Charlton. Camden, Glynn, Wayne, and other counties, was taken up amended, and passed. The Senate then took up the bill to form Putaula Circuit out of Randolph, Clay and other counties ; and after some amendments it* was passed. Tim Brunswick Circuit will be composed of the following counties ; Clinch, Ware, Coffee, Appling, Wayne, Camden, Glynn and Charl ton. The House this morning on motion of Mr. Crook, reconsidered its action of yesterday or dering the reference to a special committee and printing of the treasurer’s report in rela tion to the per diem and mileage of members, of the last aud present sessions. The matter lies over. The balance of the morning session was con sumed in the consideration of a bill oft'ered by Mr. Jones, of Muscogee, providing for legal izing certain acts of commissioners appointed to organize the Exchange Hank in Savannah and allow further time in which to perfect such organization. The evening session was devoted to reading bills of House and Senate, first and second time. Mr. Jones of Muscogee, introduced a bill to compel parties complainants suing out injunc tions ne exeat and quia timet writs, to give bond to indemnify defendants for damages arising from such suits or writs. Friday, Jan. 25. House or Representatives. —The House met at the usual hour to-day and took up the Hill of Mr. Jones, of Muscogee, relative to the Exchange Hank of the City of Savannah, which at the hour of adjournment yesterday, was under discussion. The same was on mo tion of the mover thereof, laid on the table for the present, in order, I presume, to enable in formation desired to be obtained and presented to the House previous to final action on the Hill. The Bills proposing the establishment of general systems of education for the .State, be ing the special order of this day, were seve rally taken up. That which was offered by the Special Committee as a substitute for the bill of Mr. Pickett, was first considered. This proposes to divide the State into School Dis tricts ; to appropriate three fourths of the net proceeds of the Western & Atlantic Railroad, the present Poor School Fund, and to levy a tax of twenty-five per cent, on the State tax to further the objects of education. A motion was made by Mr. Irvin to lay the same on the table for the balance of the session. Having withdrawn the same, it wag renewed by Mr. Jones, of Muscogee, and prevailed by a con siderable majority. The bill offered by Mr. Lewis, of Hancock, was then presented to the House, but on account of this gentleman’s in disposition, was postponed until to-morrow, when it will be treated as the special order. The proposition to appropriate ten thous and dollars for the endowment of the “Botani co Medical College” in the city of Macon, was taken up and lost by a vote of 56 to 77. The House tlienadjournedto 3J o’clock, i*. m. A few unimportant bills were offered this evening, and the remainder of the time was occupied in reading Senate and House Bills the second time. The United States and Great Britain. The London Times, in reading the Washing ton Union a lecture, takes occasion to speak of the press and government yf this country in its usual disparaging tone. Hut after indulg ing Us whim in this subject, it says: It is, above all things, desirable that the two nations should remain on terms of peace and amity, and we can answer for the people of England’ whose opinion the Washington Union admits we faithfully represent, that they desire noth ing more earnestly than to cultivate the most friendly relations with all the world, but es pecially with the United States. The quarrel will never come from our side, but it is quite probable that thoso whom the American public suffers to misrepresent it W’ith tho pon and in the Cabinet may succeed in em broiling the governments of the two nations to a degree and to an extent which may commit their honor and render an ainicablo solution impossible. The very men whom the enligh tened American citizen avowedly dispises and repudiates at home, he may feel it impossible to disavow when they have compromised the honor of his country abroad. It is a favorite topic with those American newspapers which can never mention England except in terms of insult, to speak of the Eng lish press and government as if theirill-advised conduct blighted and repressed the feelings of good will whieh are ever ready to spring up iu the American mind towards England. The Washington Union waxes pathetic when it tells us how tender is the affection with which we should have been regarded by the American press and its admirers, if we could only behave ourselves meekly, decorously, in the presence of a fondly attached, but suscep tible nation. It may be so, but facts would seem to justify a different conclusion. Wo have entered into a war, the substantial justice of winch no European power has ven tured to deny. From tho American press we have met with nothing but abuse. Our rever ses have been exaggerated, our successes de med, and falsehoods have been put forth on behalt of Russia in the American papers which, to do her justice, Russia lias never had the effrontery to put forward In her own. We sought, unadvisedly as it has turned out, to recruit our armies in Canada, but the Ameri can government, while conniving at tlie foun dation by her citizens of piratical States in Central America, aud hesitating whether to receive theirjAmbassadors at its levees has refused to be contented with our explanations and pushed its demands of satisfaction for so trivial a matter to a point which the British government has flatly refused to concede We are well aware that the great American dimoemcy is little used to be approached with the language of plainness and sincerity it is hard for truth to exist in the presence oVabso at !r° r ;r the 9am > law of human nature t U gnes the tyrant his sycophants, gives to j ~o p„p]. c , . blrtrcß, ■ shmdVt iS b fn ter ‘ hat tho American people should hear the truth new than learn too late £<? w'Tl SCra n° ltS interests have been tamper- TANARUS” t “ Hercules grown i's ‘ h “ W ° wouM Sft y for ourselves 18 , th ‘ ‘ 111 the motives that dispose us to culti vate the most friendly relations with the Un!- place RteS ’ woakne!W and timidity have no Russian Official Report of the Surrender of Kars. The Invalide ltusse publishes General Mau ravieff’s detailed report of the surrender of Kars, as follows: “After the assault upon Kars, on Sept. 29, the Turks took courage for a time, expecting our troops to retreat. They were much aston ished, therefore, when they saw, on the con trary, the blockade maintained witli greater strictness than before, and our camp becoming transformed into a fixed and organized estab lishment, surrounding them on all sides, and daily receiving stores of every description. “Nevertheless, the hopes of the besieged once more revived when some troops of suc cor approached from Erzeroum. Indeed, Vely I’aclia, chief of the Erzeroum detachment, and afterwards Selim Racha, coming from Trebi zond, did attempt to march upon Kars, but their rear was always menaced by Gen. Son sohoff’s detachment. Our patrole also nnnoy od these troops, even in the very neighborhood of Erzeroum. “ All the time the supply of food was be coming exhausted at Kars; the weather was growing cold; snow had fallen upon the heights at Sagaulong; hunger provoked mortality amongst the garrison ; the desertions increas ed in number, and dejection became general. “ All these circumstances determined Gen. Williams, who directed the defence, to sur render the fortress. On Nov. 24th, the Aid-de- Canip of Gen. Williams, Maj. Teasdale, pre sented himself before Aid-de-Camp Gen. Mou ravieff, bringing a letter, in which Gen. Wil liams requested authority to come the follow ing day into our camp under a flag of truce, in order to consult upon an arrangement. Aid dc-Camp Gen. Mouravieff charged Maj. Teas dale with a verbal message to General Wil liams, to the effect that he was ready to re ceive him in the afternoon of the next day, Nov. 25. “At the appointed hour, on the 25th, Gen. Williams presented himself to the Com mander-in-Chief of the detached corps of the Caucasus—as the plenipotentiary of the Mu shir Vassif Pacha, Commander-in-Chief of the Army of Anatolia. Tho conditions of the sur render having been drawn up, were signed by Gen. Williams, and approved by Aid-de-Camp Gen. Mouravieff. General Williams was to return to our camp the next morning with the Mushir’s final reply, but his presence in the fortress being necessary to put affairsin order, and to bring the news of surrender to the knowledge of the garrison, the decision meet ing witli a passionate resistance from, some of the officers, lie sent his. aid-de-camp to inform us how the affair stood. “ The evening of the same day, however, Maj. Teasdale presented himself, with full powers in writing given by the Mushir to Geu. Williams, to settle definitely the conditions of capitulation, and also with a list of the Pas chas of the army of Anatolia then in Kars. “In the afternoon of Nov. 27, Gen. Wil liams accompanied by his staff and three Pas chas, entered our camp and signed the final conditions of capitulation. ‘‘According to the treaty, the residue of the army of Anatolia, which comprised the gari'i son of Kars, were to leave the fortress on the 28th, with their arms, their flags flying, and with the drum beating; but, upon the prayer of the Turkish commanders themselves, all the troops left their arms and ammunition in their camps, under the guard of some Ottoman sol diers, who were then relieved by ours. “ Although it had been arranged that the Turks should form in columns near the ruins of the village Goumhes at 10 o’clock in the morning, it was not until two o’clock in the afternoon that the Mushir of the army of Ana tolia, accompanied by Gen. Williams and some English officers, presented themselves before Aid-de-Camp Gen. Mouravieff. Our troops had previously been arranged in order of bat tle upon the two banks of the river Karstchi. The flags of the Turkish regiment were then brought to the front of our lines, and were re ceived by a company of carabiniers of the re giment of Toula Chasseurs, amidst the sound of music, and hurrahs caught up from battal ion to battalion. “ The portion of tlic Turkish army, consist ing for the most of old and feeble men, of diers relieved from an indefinite time, (the ltcdifs,) also some militia (Bashi-Bazouks and Lages,) forming altogether a total of 0,000 men, were, according to the terms of the trea ty, sent to their homes under escorts for the first half-day’s march, upon the condition that they should no more carry arms against his Majesty the Emperor, during the war. “ After the departure ofthe Redifs, the Coin mander-in-Cliief received a deputation from the chief inhabitants of the city of Kars. “ After the inspection of the Turkish regu lar troops (about 7,000 or 8,000 men) who be came prisoners ol war, Gen. Mauravieff gave orders for the distribution amongst them of provisions which had been prepared for them in the cuisines of the companies encamped up on the left bank of the Karstchai. On the same day the fortress was garrisoned by our troops, under the command of Col. DeSage, and the Russian flag was unfurled upon the citadel.” A letter in Lc Nord, from St. l’etersburgh says: ° “I* > s thought that Gen. Williams will be brought to Bt. Petersburgh. His position at Kars was far from being an agreeable one. He found himself between two parties, both wishing his death—the one because he was willing to give up the fortress, the other be cause he did not give it before. During the three days of negotiation, his only place of safety was the Russian camp ; lie did not dare even to return to the fortress for the night, but slept in a house situated at the extremity of the suburbs outside the walls.” California and Isthmus News.
