COLTJMBTJS: Thurad*y Morning, January 31, 1850. LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION. The Justices’ Court yesterday morning con cluded its examination of the charge against John Chisolm, by requiring of him bail in the amount of SB,OOO to appear and answer the charge of purloining money from the Post office. - We are pleased to see that Gen. James N. ltethune, the Editor of the Comer Stone, has so far recovered as to bo able to resume his editorial duties. In his late severe aflliotion the General had the sympathies of our entire community; and the pleasantry and philoso phic spirit with which he announces his re sumption of the pen afford another proof of the oxcollont qualities that entitle him to the high regard of his fellow-mon. The Corner Stone is independent of any party organization —takes its cuo from no “extension” platform or suggestions of party expodicncy—and is therefore honost and consistent, if not popular, in its political course. Its undeviating devo tion to the South is unquestionable and relia ble ; and wo trust that though tb® boOtly cir culation of Us oditor has been restricted by bis misfortune, that of the Corner Stone is in creasing and may never bo seriously ampu tated. “The New World” Is tbo title of a handsome volume that lias been submitted to us for examination. It was an advance copy in the hands of an Agent who is now in our city soliciting subscriptions for the work. From the hasty examination we have bostowod upon it, we believe it will be found an interesting publication, containing tho loading incidents in the history of both North and South America. It is plentifully illustrated with portraits of the leading char acters and skotclios of prominent scenes and incidents in the history of the two continents, and oontains about 1000 pages of reading. A map, showing the latest boundaries, divisions and surveys, accompanies the book, and adds interest and value. Tho American Cotton Planter. Wo havo feccivod tho November and Decem ber xmmbors of this handsome and valuable Southern Agricultural Monthly. It abounds with artiolcß of much interest to Southern plan ter*, and will also be found entertaining and instructive to all classes of the community. Its editor is Dr. N. B. Cloud, Lockland, Ala., to whom all communications should be addressed. Price $1 a year. Flint Cirouit. lion. James 11. Stark, late Judge in this Circuit has resigned, and G. J. Green, Esq., of Griffin, has boon appointed by the Governor to fill the vacancy. Southern and Northern Colonization. Wo learn from tlio South Carolina papers that a company of tliroo hundred men, under tho dirootion of 11. Posoy, has been organized in Abbovillo District, for tho colonization of Kansas. In this Stato and Alabama, also, men enough can readily be found, but the money to boar their expenses is moro difficult to obtain. This seems very strango, when we oousidor that most of the capital of the South is vested iu negro property, and that the in centive for Southern emigration to Kansas is tho preservation and enhancement in value of that property. Wo notice that the abolition colonizers of Kansas are carrying out a scheme for raising funds which scorns to bo moro effective, what ever may be thought of its honesty or legality. It will be recolloctod that at one of their Con ventions the Froosoilers of Kansas resolved to issue scrip, redeemable by tho State when they obtained the ascendancy and control afitu affairs, to be used in buying up and paying tho expenses of abolition emigrants to Kansas. The other day, after a harangue to an Illinois audience, an abolition emissary from Kansas sold this scrip to tho amount of SIOOO in cash; and no doubt great efforts will bo made all over the North to carry out tho same unlawful and reprehensible game. It will thus become a matter of speculation. Capitalists of the reckless and adventurous class will see that by buying tho scrip at half its nominal value they will make a “splendid” speculation, pro vided thoy can carry the State for frecsoil.— And capital throughout the North being thus interested in the success of tho abolition move ment in Kansas, who can doubt that every effort will be made to wrest tho Territory from the South 1 It will soon beoomo a land of paupers, retained by Northern capitalists to vote its“freodom” and their gain; and the substantial Southern settler, with the capacity and working force to make it a producing and thriving State, will bo driven out with his proporty by abolition laws. This state of the case shows the necessity for prompt and energetic Southern action. — Let not slaveholders rely on the advantage al ready gainod by their friends in the organiza tion of tho Territory. That will prove no ob stacle to Northern capital and rapacity, unless the South sends forward emigrants promptly and liberally. Southern capital is to be affect ed by the result of the struggle, and it should seek in time to protect itself. If the South losoe this battle, she may as well surrender every other outpost without a struggle, for the same abolition expedients will be used in ony future contest between tho two sections, and the success of tho Kansas plan of opera tions will indueo capitalists to invest moro con fidently hereafter. Gross Superstitions. The Terro Haute Express says that at the fTjeution of Hubbard, a few days ago, in T?*.b*sh county, for the murder of the French C-fluly, after he Was entirely dead, the inelo £'*4 u taken down, and moro that five ftsndted ‘arsons went in and touched him, ti.oir isaeons for so doing, that it would Li the riitufo pfoteet them from witchcraft.— Vharop* that hearts hung with the crowd tooS, ut it np in small pieces, and Ciwidad p ouJ Omofcg them to act as a charm in protecting them in the future from ague and other diseases- sno of our Representatives. The Savannah Journal has a MilleJgavillo correspondent who gives sketches of some of the members of tbo Legislature. From bis last letter we clip the following notice of one of the Representatives from Muscogee: “ Jack Jones,’’ as he is familiarly termed, is in truth “a chip of the old block,” and if spared, 1 think, bids fair to rival bis justly distinguished father. He rarely ever permits any subject of im portance to pass that he does not “pitch in,” and it is not often he retires from the contest second best. Representing a constituency many of whom are the “elite” of Columbus, and of the State, he seems to bear in mind very faithfully their interests, and is ever ready to stand forth fear lessly their champion, when attempted to bo encroached upon, either by insidious ap proaches or open attacks. He thinks, speaks and acts for himself, and I know of no member upon the lloor, who acts with more supreme contempt for “Buncorab.” Being blessed with a handsome competence in life, he does not need one of the great in centives to action, so often requisite to force a dovelopement of mental powers, which worldly independence, alas, too often clothes in purple and fine linen, and then suffers to dream away existence in inglorious ease. With him I hope It may be otherwise—and that be will let a noble aiwl lofty ambition to serve liis day and generation, prompt him to a lull developement of those talents that nature has bestowed with no penurious or frugal hand. Lord John Russell’s Letter. We have already announced that this letter, which, as Mr. Clayton had asserted, disclaimed I on the part of Great Ilritaip any intention to I assume jurisdiction over any part of Central I America, was communicated to the Senate I the other day by the President. We now have I tho letter before us. It bears date January I 10, 1853, and is addressed to Mr. Crumpton, I then, as now, tho British Minister at Wash- I ington. The chief object of the letter was to I bring about a joint arrangement botween I Great Britain and the United States for guar- I anteoing Greytown as a free and independent I port, and indemnifying Mosquito for witb- I drawing her claim of jurisdiction over it— I Lord John declaring that “what is apparent I should he made to conform as far as possible with what is real. What is apparent is that the King of Mosquito exercises sovereignty over Greytown ; what is real is that he had no authority there whatever, but that a committee of Europeans and Americans carry on the Government at that port.” After stating the terms and the manner of proceeding by which he thinks this can be effected, and declaring that Great Britain “has no other interest in Mosquito than that which is derived from an honorable regard for her old connection with the Indian nation of Mos quito,” (referring to England’s former alliance with these savages during her wars with Spain,) Lord John concludes with this explicit sentence : “The peculiarity of this case is, that certain I neighboring States deny altogether the inde- I pcndenco of Mosquito, and the Mosquito n- I tion ro liable every day to new incursions I upon their territory. We can make no com- I plete provision against this danger. Our policy I is to do all that honor and humanity require in 1 behalf of the Mosquito nation; but we intend I to adhere strictly to the treaty of Washington I of the 19th of April, 1850, and not to assume • any sovereignty, either direct or indirect, in I Central America.” | As tho treaty referred to (known as the I Clayton-Bulwer Treaty,) was negotiated du- I ring Lord John Russell’s connection with the I government, it is a very reasonable supposi- I tion that lie better understood its meaning I than Lord Clarendon, who now maintains that I Great Britain did not, by that agreement, I surrender any of her old claims in Central I America, but that tho treaty was to be con- Is trued prospectively only ! Mr. Bright on the United States. I At public meeting of the Marsdcn Mechan ics’ Institution, at Manchester, on the 14th December, Mr. Bright, M. P., in the course of a speech, deprecating the war, said: “ Many of you have relatives or friends in America. That young nation has a population about equal to ours in those islands. It has a great external commerce. It has more ton nago in shipping than we have. It has more rail roads than wc have. It has also a great manufacturing interest in different branches. That is the young giant whose shadow ever grows, and there is the true rival of this coun try. How do we stand or start in the race ? The United States Government, including all the Governments of all tho Sovereign States, raises in taxes probably from X 12,000,000 to ,£15,000,000 sterling in the year. England this year will raise in taxes and loans, and will expend nearly £100,000,000. This popula tion must raise and will spend probably £BO,- 000,000 within this year more than that popu lation will raise and spend, and in America tliero is far less poverty and pauperism than in England. Can we run this race on these terms and against these odds ? Can we hope to be as well off’ as America if tho products of our industry ore thus swept away by tiro tax gatherer, and in tho vain scheme of saving Europe from imaginary dangers ? Can poverty be lessened among us, can education spread, cau the brutality of so many of our population bo uprooted, can all or anything that good men look for come to us, while the fruits of our industry, the foundation of all social and mor al good are squandered in this manner? Pur sue the phantom of military glory for ten years and expend iu that time a sum equal to all the visible property of Lancashire and York shire, and then compare yourself with the United States of America, and where will you be ? Pauperism, crime, and political anarchy nre tho legacies we are preparing for our chil dren, and there is no escape for us unless we change our course, and resolve to disconnect ourselves from the policy which tends inces santly to embroil us with the nations of the continent of Europe.” Tho Massachusetts Legislature at their lost I session perpetrated a curious blunder in pas- I sing an amendment to the constitution, which I they proposed to submit to the people. The I intention was to prohibit naturalised citizens from voting, without a previous residence of 21 years iu tho United States. The effect of tho proposition they adopted would, be to prevent all persons except naturalized citizens from voting at all. “That no person should be entitled to vote in this Commonwealth unless he shall havo been a resident within the juris diction of the United States 21 years, and legally naturalized.” Gov. Gardner recommends them to wipe out and begin again. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. o>rrcsponlence of tin* Savannah Journal. Monday, Jau. 28. This morning at great peril of limb, from the heavy sleet that presented an almost un broken glacier in our streets, the House met with commendable punctuality, and commenc ed their morning session. On motion ot Irwin, of Wilkes, it reconsidered by a voteof <il to oil, its action of Saturday laying upon the table for the balance of the session, tho bills provid ing for the removal of free persons (of color) from our State, by laying a tax upon that class of our population, to be devoted exclusively to that object. Messrs. Irwin, Jones, of Musco gee, and Thornton, participated in the discus sion of the subject. The matter lies over. The bill proposing to establish a general sys tem of public education in the rudiments of an En glish education, being the special order of the day, was taken up, and after being amended in several particulars, was finally gone through with, and a substitute for the same was offer ed by Mr. Stiles —the substance of which is for the Governor to appoint a commissioner, at a salary of three thousand dollars, to traverso the State, gather information, and report to the next General Assembly. Mr. Stiles supported hissubstitute in a well prepared speech, which, owing to bis infirm health, be asked and obtained permission to read to the House. Before he concluded the House adjourned over, and the matter is suspended until to morrow. The evening session was devoted to a call of the counties; about 40 new bills were introduced, most of them of a local character, and of no interest to your readers. In the Senate, a resolution was orffered by Mr. l’ope to-day to provide for the appoint ment of a committee of both branches, to con sider when it is likely the General Assembly will be able to adjourn, sine die. This move ment contemplates the 26th of February as the day when the business may probably be got through with if proper devotion to the multi tude of subjects now before tho Legislature is shown, the adjournment can be accomplished by that time : though this is doubtful. A bill to form anew county, from the coun ty of Clark, to be called “Terrell,” was de feated to-day by a large majority. The bill incorporating a bank in Athens to be called the “Bank of Athens,” was finally adopted to-day, without the amendments of Judge Cone, which were not pressed by that gentleman. A bill to incorporate the LaGrauge and Ox ford Railroad, was taken up and passed at the urgent request of Dr. Beasley, the Senator from Troup, who stated that the corporators desired to commence the work at once. The Governor’s Message onthe Vermont Resolutions. —The Governor communicated to both branches of the General Assembly to day, a special message, covering certain Reso lutions transmitted to them by the Governor of the State of Vermont. The message is characterized by great dig nity and ability, and worthy the present excel lent chief magistrate of our State. It breathes a spirit of manly patriotism, of calm but firm maintaiuance of our own sovereign right, as States—and at the same time invokes the constitutional men of all sections of the country to unite for the purpose of preserving if possible the integrity of the Republic. Gov ernor Johnson in allusion to the present condi tion of things at Washington and the prospects of the county, uses the following language in conclusion: “It behooves the State of Georgia as an in tegral portion of tho South to do whatever she can, to arrest the tide of aggression, or failing to do that, to place herself in the safetest atti tude of self-preservation. It may be, and I trust that such will be the result, that tho un ion of the sound constitutional men of all sec tions, of which there are gratifying indica cations, may prove strong enough ultimately to arrest tlie machination of fanaticism and save us from the storm which now darkens our political horizon. But it is vain to expect that our assailants will voluntarily relent their pur pose, or relax efforts for our destruction.— They will either conquer the friends of the constitution and the union, or they must be conquered. Iu the latter result the rights of the South will be maintained, but in the event of the former, the South must take care of herself. Such is tho awful issue which is now presented to the country.” He then reiterates his recommendation, con tained in his late Biennial Message, that the present Legislature should provide for the call ing of a convention, to provide for the contin gencies contemplated in the solemnly announc ed declaration of Georgia, through her con vention in 1850. I regret that time will not permit me more at length to comment upon this able State paper, which was received by the Senate with evident marks of high appro bation. Col. Lawton, of Dougherty, offered a resolu tion, requesting the Governor to return the Vermont resolutions to the Governor of that State, without comment; and expressed him self as approving Gov. Johnson’s message. Pending the consideration of this matter, the Senate adjourned. Congressional. Washington, Jan. 25.—The House had three ineffectual balloting* to-day. Jan. 26.—Mr. George H. Dunn, of Indiana, offered a series of resolutions in the House to day : Ist. That no man should l>o oleotcJ Speaker who will Hesitate to restore the Mis souri Compromise. 2nd, That the Compromise should be restored as a necessary and certain means of reviving harmony, concord and union. 3d. That the factional agitation of the slavery question, in and out of Congress, is unwise, and unjust to every section of the country, but until tho Compromise is restored, it is a solemn duty to perish in our efforts to that end. The first resolution was rejected by a vote of 103 to 102—tho second was adopted by 101 to 100—and the third rejected by a vote of 103 to 100. Mr. Fuller offered a resolution declaring that the agitation of the slavery question was unwise, and unjust to a large portion of tho American people, and injurious to every sec tion, and ought not to be countenanced. This resolution was adoptedby a vote of 106 to 100. Mr. Meacham offered a resolution declaring that the repeal of the Missouri Compromise was an example of the useless and factious agitation of the slavery question, and unwise and unjust to the American people—adopted —ayes 108, nays 93. Tho House then adjourned. Washington, Jan. 28. Senate.— Mr. Cass strongly denounced the position of Great Britain in relation to the Mosquito affair.— Messrs. Clayton and Collamer made a few re marks ; after which the Senate adjourned until Tuesday morning. llovsK.—Only one vote for Speaker to-day, without au election. The plurality resolution was tabled by a vote of one hundred and six to one hundred. It is rumored that Mr. Dallas has been ten dered a mission to England. Me had received no news from the steamship Arabia, now due, when we went to press. New Epoch iu the Treatment of Fever and Ague. The introduction of Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure inaugurated anew era in the treatment of intermittent and remittent fevers. It ai reats them, in all cases, with absolute certain ty. Free from quinine, arsenic, salicine, and every other drug perilous to the general health and constitution of tho patient, its swift and thorough cures leave no sting behind, ihe miasma of the swamps and alluvial districts of the South and West, is harmless to the trav eler or settler provided with this powerful an tidote, as it is not only a remedy tor, but a preventive of all the diseases generated by un wholesome air. No caries of the bones, no enlargement of tho joints, no swellings of the glands or contractions of the muscles, follow the use of this innoxious specific. The most distinguished chemists indorse it, and wherever it has been introduced, it has superseded eve ! ry otherprepnration designed for the same pur pose. I See what the President of the Pharmaceuti cal Society of Missouri says of Rhodes’s Fever and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria: St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 10, 1850. Having noticed tho certificate ot chemical analysis given hv the celebrated chemist, Dr. J. R. Chilton, of New York city, in favor of Rhodes’s Fever and Ague Cure, that it contain ed neither Quinine, Arsenic, Mercury, nor Strychnine, and having received numerous ap plications for it, I was induced to send to Mr. Rhodes for the medicine. Since then I have disposed of a large quantity, mostly to resi dents of this city, who have invariably been cured by it, and to whom I can refer. I am, therefore, satisfied in recommending it to be all that the proprietor represents. EDWARD S. WHEATON, President of the Pharmaceutical Society of Missouri. Brunswick and Florida Rail Road. We are indebted to David W. Lewis, Esq., for the Report of the President and Directors of this Board to a meeting held at Brunswick on tho 3d of May, 1855. As this enterprise is exciting considerable public interest just at this time, we condense a few of the most im portant items of the report for tho benefit of our readers. It seems that the expenditures up to that time were $214,500, leaving them in posses sion of a liberal char ter —line of Railroad clear ed, forty feet wide, for ninety eight miles— land damages settled for the same distance, with the exception of one or two points—twen ty miles of road nearly graded—five miles of superstructure laid down —one locomotive, and six freight cars—with surveys covering the whole line to Thomasville, one hundred and fif'ty-eiglit miles —with a branch to Albany, sixty miles. The advantages claimed by the Report for Brunswick, may be summed up as follows :—a magnificent harbor—easy of access—great depth of water—secure anchorage—capability for impregnable defences, salubrious climate, and a location almost unequalled, for the fa cilities with which stores and supplies may be obtained. Holding a prominent position near ly midway between the Chesapeake and the southern cape of Florida—lying near the out let of the vast commerce of the West Indies and Gulf of Mexico—with peculiar adaptation to the wants of the California trade, and those new channels of Commerce, opening up with Asia, the Islands of the Pacific, and coasts of South America, by its connection with some port on tlie Gulf of Mexico, by which the trou ble, expense and delay of tho navigation round the cape will be avoided, all point to Bruns wick as a great maritime port prospectively. The report further claims that Brunswick is five hundred miles nearer the Pacific coast than New York, and nearer the Mississippi river than any port on the Atlantic. About 600 miles from Vicksburg, much of the trade of the great west for Europe it is supposed will diverge to that point when the Railroads are finished. All this, together with the loeal trade of Florida, Southern Georgia, &c., it is anticipated that Brunswick w T ill be a great city, and her Railroad pay a handsome dividend. This all looks plausible enough on paper, and leaves room for much hope that the enterprize will succeed, notwithstanding some of our wise-acres look upon Brunswick as de facto and prospectively, a one horso town.— Central Georgian. Manufactories in Lauderdale County. Ala. Cotton Mills.— We take great pleasure in chronicling tho prosperity of the manufactur ing interests in this county. Messrs. Martin, Weakly & Cos., have already in successful ope ration, two large Cotton Mills, which consume about two thousand bales of cotton annually, and have been so skilfully managed as to yield their owners handsome profits; and such has been their success that they have recently bought a fine Mill site justbelow their present mills, and are now getting out the timbers for a now factory which will be the most capacious building of the kind in North Alabama, suffi cient to contain 4,000 spindles and 100 looms. Messrs. Baugh, Kennedy & Cos., have re solved on filling their fine and commodious building with machinery. When this is con summated that property will yield a good pro fit to the enterprising owners. Wc are informed that one of our enterpris ing townsmen is now on a visitto the northern manufacturing cities, to inquire into the prac ticability of establishing a Steam Cotton Fac tory in this place. The gentleman, we trust, •will learn that a Steam Factory can be made profitable, and go to work immediately, and show that tho South can carry on all kind of factories as well as the North. Wool Factory. —We havo neglected hither to, to notice the fact that Messrs. Milner, Mays & Cos., (successrs to Milner & Kennedy,) have erected a fine new building, and will soon have in successful operation, their new machinery. They have been doing a fine business, and can not supply half the orders for their excellent blankets and negro clothing. —Florence Ga zette. Sea Island Cotton. Mr. Joel B. Smith has a lengthy communi cation in the Ganzales Inquirer, in which he undertakes to prove that Sea Island Cotton can be grown more profitably than the short staple, anywhere within 75 to 100 miles from the coast, from the Sabine to the Rio Grande. He makes a detailed comparison from both crops from the time the seed is planted, till the proceeds of the crops arc obtained in cash, deducting all expenses, lie assumes that one hand may plant ten acres of either Sea Island or Upland Cotton, and that 15,000 pounds of Upland in the seed, or 3,750 pounds of lint, is a fair average product, which, after being sold at 8 cents per pound, and deducting all expen ses, leaves, as the nett proceeds, §261,75. He next assumes that the same ten acres would produce as a fair average crop, 9,000 pounds of Sea Island Cotton in the seed, or 2,250 pounds in lint, which after being sold at 25 cents per pound, and deducting all expen- J ses. leaves, as the net proceeds §512,81. being more than double the profits of the Upland Cotton. Mr. Smith then proceeds to give a number of instances wherein his calculations have been fully verified by planters, who have made a fair trial of both kinds of cotton. commercial. office of Tin: imi.v >rx j January 31,185 ti. ’ j 1 The cotton market yesterday, was dull, without an, 4 perceptible change in prices.
