COLT; Mill'S: Wtdiididay Mornlnft, Jan. 30, IfiSO. LARURNT CITY CIUCI’LATIOSr. _ We are informed that we were misled by n mistake made in tlio Enquirer, in our notice of the communication published in that paper, as to the date of the obligation ot tho Council to transfer 1000 shares of Muacogoc Railroad stock to l’atten and Mustian. It was dated the 17th ult., and not the 20th as copied by us. The City’s Financial Difficulty. Wo gave in our paper of yesterday morning a brief and hurried report of tho proceedings of the Council on the previous evening, rela tive to that seemingly-interminable subject of perplexity and embarrassment, the sale of the City’s Muscogee Railroad Stock. Wc appre hend that the matter is left in as unsatisfacto ry a mutt as at any previous stage of its tor tuous course. Gen. Semmcs stated that he would take the ease to tho Supremo Court to save tho city from expense, ns it was evident that it had to be carried thcro by ono party or the other; and he thought that a decision could be obtained during the term to com mence next woek at Macon. We understood Mr. Mustian to nay that uniter the construction put upon tho contract by the Mayor, ho con sidered the note for $2(1,000 to bo worthless, unless it was to be liquidated by a transfer of the whole stock according to his understand ing of tho contract; and that he should seek a reimbursement, not by a suit on the note, but by insisting on the full performance of the en tire contract. It will be seen that without a prompt and final decision of the question, the city is likely to bo further embarrassed and straitened in meeting obligations maturing this year; and there is reason, we think, to apprehend that tho decision may not be final. Does Gen. Hemmos propose only to prosecute an appeal from the overruling of his injunction of tho contract of the former Council? or does he seek a mandamus to restrain the consumma tion of the contract at its present stage, invol ving tho action of both Boards? If tho former is his intended course, wo presume that the decision of tho Supreme Court will not be final, as Messrs, l’atten and Mustian may bring suit on tho instruments executed to them by tho present Council ; and as this is hardly a case over which the .Supremo Court has original jurisdiction, a long and expensive suit may arise. Wo trust that a satisfactory solution of this vexed question—one advantageous and honor* able to the city—may yet be obtained, and wo shall look with interest to the result of the re-considered vote on the proceedings of tho Council of last week, as another important item of the bungling transaction. The Post Office Case. John Chisolm, tho young man mentioned by us yesterday as having boon arrested on a charge of abstracting lottors and money from the Post Office of this city, had an examination yesterday before Justices MeKendreo and Quin, which closed late last evening. They de ferred giving their decision till this morning. Affairs in Nicaragua. The accounts by tho Daniel Webster scorn to establish the durability of Walker’s govern ment, and to place it beyond the probability of overthrow by any parties now known to he hostile. Reinforcements had been constantly reaching him, until his army now numbers 850 men from tho United States, and the natives are represented to be decidedly in his favor and greatly attaehod to him. He abolished the old Mexican laws, and established an American code in their stead, which gives great satisfaction. Everything is at present quiot. Kinney, too, is represented to be highly pleased with the prospects of his peaceful en terprise, and very popular with nil of Ills colo ny. He is receivingaceessions by overy steam er, and the farming operations of himself nnd his countrymen arc said to he prosecutod with much industry and with every promise of abundant sueccss. Can any man doubt that the natives of the country will bo benefitted and elevated, and its power and resources immensely augment ed, by those expeditions—especially Col. Kin ney’s? It is stuted that Mr. Buchanan, getting im patient at the delay of the Stato Department to relieve him, has written to Mr. Marcy that he will leave London for this country on tho 1-th of February next, whether his successor is appointed or not. Chief John lloss, of the Cherokee Nation, lias vetoed a bill passed by the Council to pro hibit abolitionists being employed as teachers of the Nation. A report has been circulated that the Dank of Capo Fear, N. 0., was brokon, or about to suspend; hut wo observe that 10 shares of its stock were sold in Fayetteville on the -Ist inst. for sl2l per share. Tall Jumping. A Mr. J. L. Brazier offers, through the Lou isville Times, to bet from $5,000 to $.'10,000 that ho can stand Hat-footed on the ground nnd leap over a brick wall fifteen feet high and four feat thick! lie also proposes to bet that he can jump five feet further on a dead level than any man in Kentucky—three feet further than any man in the United States—one foot further than any nmn in the world. That fel low has no use for wings. The Tennessee Penitentiary at present con tains 273 convicts, of whom 4 are females. The Nashvillo Gazette thinks that crime is on the increase, as within the last three months 25 more admissions than discharges have been reported; whereas the admissions and dis charges have been about equal for a long time previously. During the cold term of last week, the ther mometer was at times down to 2d degrees be low zero at Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis. The Ohio river, says the Wheeling In telligencer, is frozen from head to mouth, the ice being at that point nine inches thick. The Mississippi is also closed. Wolves in lowa. The papers give frightful accounts ot the ravages of the wolves in lowa. The extreme cold weather seems, as usual, to have greatly emboldened these half-famished creatures, and they have made dreadful slaughter ot the stock of the farmers. But the most deplorable of their ravages is the destruction of human life several persons having been attacked and devoured by them. A man in l’attawattamie county was returning from a prayer-meeting with his two daughters, all three on one horse, when they were overtaken by a pack of wolves, the eldest daughter dragged from the horse, and devoured ! Only ouc shoe and a few rem nants of her clothing were found at tho spot the next day by the neighbors. The father and other daughter made good their flight while the wolves were engaged in their horri ble repast. A boy who left his father’s house to get water from a spring was also attacked and devoured —the water-pail, some marks of blood, and a lock or two of hair only being found at the spring to indicate his fate. The correspondent of the London Times, in the Crimea, has been compelled to leave there in consequence n f nomc renarks against tho sobriety of the soldiery. He was a victim to mob law. More Indian Outrages in Florida. In the Key West correspondence of the Charleston Courier, under date of Jan. 25th, wc find the following intelligence from the Southern part of Florida: Wo have disastrous news from the neighbor hood of Fort Dallas, (Miami River). The In dians have bee* hovering about the settlement for some weeks, and on the 7th a large party attacked some settlers living on the border of the Indian hunting grounds, 12 miles West of the fort, and killed l’etor Johnson and Edward Farrall. The others escaped, but returned the next day, accompanied by a detachment of United States troops under command of Capt. Hill. They were unable to follow the trail of the Indians farther than the Everglades, where they had embarked in their canoes and escap ed into the interior. The bodies of the mur dered men were found scalped. Their huts were ransacked and every thing of value car ried away. All the settlers around the Miami have conic into the fort and demanded the pro tection of the troops. The women ami chil dren have been brought to this city. How an Alabama Congressman got Complimented by the Ladies. The Washington correspondent of the •New Orleans Dee is responsible for the following “ incident” that occurred, lie affirms, a few days since in the House of Representatives at Washington. He says: A laughablo incident occurred in the House a few days ago. Mr. Shorter, of Alabama, rose when his name was called to vote, and in a very patriotic, independent strain declared that lie neither wore the white nor the red rose, and looked only for his guidance to the true interests of the country. That he voted for nearly four weeks for Mr. Richardson : but he now thought it time to try some other candi date. At this point Mr. Elliott, of Kcntuuky, roso and said if the gentleman from Alabama now deserted the Democratic candidate, he would never call him Democrat again. Whereupon, Mr. S. said that if it were against the wishes of his party that lie should vote for any other person than Mr. Richard son, he would continuo to vote for Mr. R., and sat down amid roars of laughter, calling out tho name of Richardson. In a doggerel address from the ladies in the galleries to the members of tiic House, remon strating against the rude, not to say disgrace ful, practice of smoking in the hall, which some members have been guilty of this session, written by some wag, the incident above men tioned is thus alluded to: “The wisdom assembled” from every quarter. Should be as polite os one Mr.SSr;— —r; Who, art inp: upon only half of a hint, Took hack, in his speech, all the spunk then* was in’t. Russia a Check on England. In the “correspondence of Ileury Clay,” re cently published, is a letter from James Madi son to Mr. Clay, under the date of October 30, IKIS, which shows that before there was any apprehension of an Anglo-French “ offensive and defensive alliance,” it was the opinion of some of our leading statesman that a good un derstanding should he cultivated with the Czar, as a check upon England. Mr. Madison says : “Since tho overthrow of Franco, Russia has acquired the highest degree of political impor tance in relation to the States. Asa great power, friendly to a liberal system of neutral rights, and with whose dominions our com merce had become considerable, she held, be fore that event, a distinguished rank, but by it her weight in the general scale has been much augmented. Russia forms, in effect, at this time, the principal check on the overgrown power of England, on which account, and many others, it is immensely the interest of these States to cultivate a good understanding with her sovereign. ■ ♦- Tlie following appointments have been made by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senato : “O. Jcnings Wise, of Virginia, to be sec retary of the legation of tiic United States at Paris, in place of Don Piatt, resigned. Edward G. W. ltutler, Jr., of Louisiana, to be secretary of the legation of the United States at Berlin, in place of (). Jennings Wise, transferred to Paris. “John N. Garesche, of Delaware, to be con sul of tiic United States nt the port of Matan zas. Island of Culm, in place of Edward Wor rell, removed. “Robert H. Seeso, of New York, to be con sul ot the United States at the port of Spczzia in Sardinia. “Jonathan S. Jenkins, of California, to be consul of the United States at Apia, Naviga tor’s Islands. “George V. Brown, of New York, to be con sul of the United States at Tangier, Morocco, in place of Samuel P. Collins, deeensed.” A Mexican Liner. Col. George Gayle, of Dallas, than whom a better-hearted fellow never breathed, was the cause of great merriment, in the recent Mac M hig Convention of this State. He provided by resolution, (which the Convention did not pass,) for the “dissolution of the Union, with in twelve months from date.” That was one of his freaks ! Aleck Clitherall, (our “incendiary friend ”) bethought him, that something must be done to quiet George ; and so he introduced a reso lution, substantially as follows : “ Resolved, That Col. George W. Gayle, of Dallas, is hereby declared to be a Liner between the United States and.Mexico, witli all the privi- j leges of Mexican citizenship, until the dissoiu- ! turn of the American Union.” B e can t say’ whether this resolve was pass ed. or not. “God nnd Liberty.”’— Mont. .Mail. The Presiiient on Kansas. Wasiijnuton, Jan. 25. A message was also received to-day in the Senate from the President, on the Kansas affairs, and urgently recommending the adop tion of such measures as the exigency of the case seemed to require. The matters pertaining to Kansas, would be attended by some serious difficulties and em barrassment. partly local mal-administration, partly from the unjustifiable interference from inhabitants of some of the States, with views foreign to the interests of the rights of'the ter ritory. The Governor of Kansas, instead of using constant vigilance in the exercise of his duties, had allowed liis attention to be divided and de viated from his official obligations by other subjects, he himself setting the example in vio lation of law and duty. This conduct had im pelled the President to remove the Governor. The communication also alluded to the mis directed zeal of Propagandists in emigration, and the clashing of slavery and anti-slavery interests, as a cause of much mischief, and it emphatically condemned the efforts to antici pate or force the determination of that ques tion in this inchoate State. Finally, the legis lative Assembly was for all practical purposes the lawful body, and the message condemned the formation of tho free State constitution.— Such a movement was revolutionary in char acter, but if it reached a point of organized resistance to the United States Constitution and authorities, it will become a treasonable insurrection, and lienee it falls to the duty of the General Government to suppress it. The message concludes by saying, that if the inhabitants of Kansas should desire a State Constitution, and that they be in suffi cient numbers, the proper course will be for a convention to recommend the enactment of a law to that effect. It also recommended special appropriations to be made to defray any expenses that may become requisite in the execution of the laws and for the maintenance of public order in the above Territory. The message was referred to the Committee on Judiciary, and the Senate adjourned till Monday next, A Tribute of Respect to the Hon. J. M. Berrien. Mr 3000X1: Superior Cos out, ) December Term, 1855. j At the opening of the Court, at its present Term, Col. Seaborn Jones in appropriate terms announced the recent decease of the Honora ble John M’Phersou Berrien, and moved the Court for the appointment of a Committee to prepare and report a suitable Preamble and Resolutions in relation to the character and memory of the deceased. Whereupon the Court appointed a Committee, consisting of Col. Seaborn Jones, Col. Hines Holt, and Judge G. E. Thomas. The Committee on a subse quent day of said Court, made, by Judge Thom as, the following report, which was adopted, ordered to be entered on the minutes of the Court, and a copy transmitted to the family of the deceased, as requested by the Committee.: 1 The Committee to whom was referred the duty of preparing and reporting a suitable Preamble and Resolutions relative to the de cease of the Hon. John M’Pkevson Berrien, 1 respectfully report, that— Another, and another, and then another of Georgia’s distinguished and honored citizens, have, within a short interval of each other, been cut down by death’s relentless hand. A Charlton, a Colquitt, and a Berrien, have trod close one upon the other, in their exit to the spirit world. The State and the country, the city and the hamlet, friend and acquaintance, have all heard the startling knell as it rung along the coasts and up the valleys and was echoed back again from tlic mountain tops— ‘■Tho mighty arc fallen! The godly man ceascth.” Who that has ever seen tho graceful form of John M. Berrien; who, that has ever listened to his chaste and commanding eloquence, can refuse him the tribute of his admiration, or refrain from participating in the general grief for his death ? He was a striking example of what study and system can achieve; of what a life of application and labor can accomplish. Me, his brethren, who have so often seen and heard him, and felt the subduing power of his oratory, delight to honor one who exalted his profession by learning and adorned it by his talents ; who won, by liis courtesy, no less than by his attainments, the esteem and good opinion of all who knew him. The Parlor had not a more perfect gentleman-—flic Court a brighter star —the Senate a more brilliant sun. Having filled up the measure of his useful ness and fame, when the summons came {which must come to all) lie died in the possession cf his faculties; in the bosom of his family; in the midst of his friends; in the city of his adoption, in the State for whose welfare and honor he had spent the energies of his youth and the vigor of his manhood; full of faith and full of hope, discoursing wisely on the future state. Such a man is a blessing to the world ; such a life is without reproach; such a death without fear! Therefore— -Ist. Resolved, That we, the members of the Bar of the Chattahoochee Circuit, desirous of commingling our sympathies with those of his niore immediate friends, do cherish, in com mon with them and the whole community, the memory and the fame of our most worthy and truly distinguished brother, John McPherson Berrien, and that we regard his death, not less a loss to his family, the legal profession and the State, than to the whole country. 2d, Resolved, That wc sincerely condole with his deeply afflicted, bereaved family, in this severe dispensation. 3d. Resolved, That these Resolutions be en tered on the Minutes of this Court, a copy of the same be made out and forwarded by the l lprk to the family of the deceased; and a copy furnished to each of the public gazettes in the city ofColumbus for publication. —♦ — —— l'lie New Commercial Advertiser says : “So inteuse was the cold in our composing-room, during the forenoon, (though the room is plen tifully supplied with hot steam pipes,) that frost full halt inch thick is formed on the in side, of so abiding a nature that it will take the impression of the types, and retain them i with great beauty. Several panes of glass bear printed sentences, and arclikclvto retain ; them throughout the day. Our Foreign Relations. Greeley, writing to tho Tribune in reference to our foreign relations, says that within a few years several of the foreign ministers have rendered their tribute to the worth and at tractions ot American women by the highest evidence of their appreciation of both. Mr. Bodisco married Miss Williams, of George town ; Mr. Sartiges, the French Minister, married Miss Thorndike, of Boston; Mr. Bcuneless, formerly Secretary of the Spanish Legation, married the sister of Madame Sarti ges ; Mr. Boileau, present Secretary of the french Legation, married the daughter of Col. Beutou : Mr. Marcoleta, minister from Nicn rngua, married Miss Kickhaffer, of Washing ton city; Mr. Uaroalno, late Chilian Minister gave two manifestations of this “distinguish ed consideration” to tlie United States, and now Mr. Stoekl is added to tlie catalogue. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. Saturday, Jan. 20. The following bills were taken up and pass ed by the Senate: To organize the Court of Common l’leas of the city of Augusta, and to authorize n Recorder's Court. To authorize subscriptions to stock in railroad companies by tho city of Augusta. To authorize the crossing of the River by the Savannah Valley Rond at “Bull’s Sluice, ’ its extension to, and a connection of Railroads at Augusta, &c. To establish and organize a Court in the city of Columbus. To change the time of holding the Superior Court of the county of Mcr iwether. To authorize Justices of the Inferior Courts of this State, to exercise Criminal Jurisdiction. lx thk House. —The bill, to provide for the sale of free persons of color, anil the substi tute for the same, which provides for the re moval of free persons of color from this State, was on motion of Mr. Jones, of Muscogee, laid on the table for the balance of the session. Also, the bill to endow the “Atlanta Medical and Savannah Medical Colleges,” was lost by yeas 40, nays 70. The correspondent of the Macon Telegraph writes, under this date: “ The past week has been employed by both branches, in discussion of leading bills’of gen eral importance. Many important bills are yet to be disposed of, most of which are en titled to mature consideration, and as the ac cumulated mass of business before the present Legislature up to the present time, exceeds that of the last session—l would not be sur prised if the session was prolonged to an unu sual length or another Recess suggested. The weather here is extremely unpleasant,—slip ping and sliding, sleeting, freezing and sneez ing, are in abundance and to spare.” What Russia Gains by the Capitulation of Kars. The advantages gained by Russia in obtain ing possession of Kars will in a great measure compensate her for the loss of the Crimea.— Russia, so long as she holds tills commanding position, can control the great highway of trade which finds its way overland from Tre bizond to Persia, and the countries of Central Asia beyond. Russia was just beginning se riously to suffer from the embargo on her commerce and the exhaustion of her war sup plies. But the capture of Kars enables her to divert the current of European commerce through Turkey to Central Asia, to channels across her own territories; and thus, the pres sure on her own trade being neutralized, Rus sia can recuperate for the war. And it is more than likely that, Persia being commer cially dependent upon Russia, and disposed to lean in the same direction, may be induced by that power to declare against Turkey for the purpose of extending its dominions.— Balt. American. Important to Postmasters. Our attention has been called to the fact that some postmasters are in the habit of send ing back to the mailing office letters reaching them for delivery, because they were not pre paid by stamps, but by money. This is wrong, and arises from a misapprehension of the law. In no case, indeed, should a letter, after it has reached the office of delivery, be returned for postage, much less should it be returned because the postage was not paid by stamps. It is the general duty of postmasters to see that letters are prepaid by stamps, but when (having been prepaid in cash, either through ignorance of the law, or inadvertence, or want of stamps on the part of the mailing postmas ter) they reach their destination, it is the duty of the postmaster to deliver them the same as though prepaid by stamps. It will necessarily happen, in the introduction of the stamp pre payment system, that supplies of stamps will fail to reach some of the small and remote offi ces at the proper time, and it would be doing violence to the citizens of those localities to return and thus delay their correspondence, because of a circumstance so unavoidable.— Entertaining this view of the subject, the De partment has instructed postmasters, not hav ing stamps, to forward letters as heretofore when prepaid by money. If an unpaid letter, from any cause, gets into the mail, and reaches its destination, it should be delivered cm pay ment of postage at prepaid rate. A good anecdote is told of one of the Chip pewa Indians now at the North. He was ask ed why Indians did not copy the dress of our people, lie replied: “Me thinks we started your fashions, your men now wear blankets as we do, and your women paint their faces and wear feathers!” GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS. quit! JURY have had under consideration (he slate of A the business of the Superior Court of this (Muscogee) county, and also the best method for its disposition : They find on tiic Dockets a very large and unusual number of cases, and, from the best information they can obtain, of tedious and heavy litigation. It is not the pur pose of tlie Jury to refer or allude to the causes which led to this state of tilings. Suffice it'to sav they exist, and in the opinion of the Jury, to an extent that requires a prompt and efficient remedy. It lias .arrived to a point which threatens, if it does not amount to, a denial of jus tice. That something ought to he done to relieve the Court and the country from the consequences of this State of tilings, all must admit. Rut the question is. what is tho proper remedy ? Adjourned Courts are impractica ble: inasmuch as tho sessions of tlie Supreme and Infe rior Courts and tlie commencement of the Circuit follow the session of tlie Superior Court and each other in such quick succession that there is no time to hold an a (Mourn ed Court. And if held after tile close of tlie Courts in tlie uthor counties of tlie circuit, it must he just before tlie re gular Term, and there will not be time to execute the judments of tlie regular Term, or the processes returna ble to the succeeding Term. Tho Jury believe that more time should be allowed for tlie session's of the Court., and that in view of tlie labor necessary to dispose of the im menso mass of business ponding before this Court, that tlie labors of the Judge of the Chatahoochec Circuit should lie full-tailed by taking from his Circuit some three or four counties, and adding tlie same to anew or some oth er Circuit, as suggested in a proposition now pending be fore tlie Legislature in session. With a view to be reliev ed of this existing evil and to ensure tlie speedy and prompt administration of Justice, (an object so desirable in every well regulated eoinmuuity:) the Jury would suggest to and earnestly request tlie Senator and Repre sentatives in tho Legislature from this county, if possible, to have the Chattahoochee Circuit reduced, in tlie man ner before suggested, so that tlie Judge may devote the time heretofore allotted to those counties to the business of tills Court. Alsu, to repeal the ac t passed at the last session, changing tlie time of the sessions of this Court, and to fix the period for its sessions so as to allow the greatest possible time for the transaction of the heavy amount of business before it. And we further recom mend that our Senator and Itspresentatires use their best efforts to have all laws repealed exempting tlie members of the Fire and Military companies of Columbus, from Ju rv duties. We desire the Clerk to furnish our Senator and Representatives with a copy of this part of our Pre sentments. forthwith, and that this Presentment he pule lished in tlie city papers.
