The Charleston Courier learns from passen gers by a British schooner from Nassau, that the brig Isabella, from Apalachicola for New York, was run ashore on Sheep Key Shoal on the 1 tith January, to prevent her sinking—ves sel a total loss, but cargo saved; also, that the ship Valparaiso, from New Orleans for Liverpool, went ashore about the 18th Janua ry, with a large cargo of cotton, all of which was saved, but the vessel was lost.

The first mate brought the vessel into the port of Charleston, where he, Anderson, and Henry Giraud, were arrested on a charge of having committed the murder. The grand jury failed to find a true hill against Giraud, but present ed Auderson and the mate. The trial of the mate, N. W. Lakeman, w ill now be proceeded with, and we will notice its result.

Secretary Marry lias again declined to re cognise French, as Miuister from Nicaragua. * - - ♦ The Alabama Legislature has passed, over the Governor’s veto, a bill giving s.'>o,ooo to the .Mobile Medical College. The Atlanta Bank. The .{iiestion of declaring the ('barterot this Dunk forfeited, and proceeding criminally against its officers, being now before the Leg islature, and sundry charges of illegal dealing and fraudulent pretences on the port of its managers having been preferred, we have ex amined the report of Solicitor ltleckley, the last sworn statement of the officers, and the report of the Legislative committee. From these we derive the following facts and con clusions : Hooks of subscription to thscapital , stock of the Dank having been kept open for a long time, without subscribers, in March, 1858, Mr. George Smith, of Chicago, Illinois, after consultation with the Commissioners and others, subscribed for 2091 shares in his own : name and four shares (one each) in the names of four other non-resident persons. The re maining five shares were then subscribed for by five citizens of Atlanta —making the 8000 required by the charter. The charter requir ed $7 per share to be paid in specie at the time of subscribing; and Mr. Smith drew up a bill of exchange on New York for the whole amount of this instalment, which was there placed to the credit of tin* .Atlanta Batik.— Subsequently, Smith and the other four non resident stockholders were chosen directors ; and after the election of officers, the President and Cashier came to Atlanta, and have since resided there. The officers, in their report, say that thu whole amount of the capital stock has been paid in, in accordance with the re quirements of the charter. The Legislative committee charge that all the stockholders of one share each were but nominal stockholders, and that the whole stock was really taken hy George Smith ; that it is a violation of the spirit and intention of the charter lor on# individual, and he a non-resi dent of tho State and not named as a corpora tor in the charter, to take the whole stock; that the $7 per share was not paid in specif at tiie time of subscribing, as required by the charter, and that the whole amount of the stock, or the SIOO,OOO required before the Bank could issue notes, has never been paid in ; that it appears from the first sworn state ment of the Bank that it had in circulation, on the 9th of .June, 1858, $179,000, and the com mittee charge that this was the Just day upon which it commenced business in Atlanta, and that it appears from the statement itself that the Bank di.lnot then have sloo,oooin specie, without which it could not legally have com tnenced business. The Solicitor reports that its notes had reached Atlanta before the Dank had an office there ora banking-house opened. It is not denied that the Bank has always promptly redeemed its notes and other liabili ties, and no specific charge of fraud or failure in any business transaction has been preferred against it. The principal business of the Dank, it is charged and admitted, is transacted through an agtut at Chicago, where Mr. Smith’s financial standing enables him to give character to the circulation. In this State, ex cept to a limited extent about Atlanta, it is suspected and its aetes generally refused. AVc annex tho Solicitor’s statement of its manner of doing business : “All business of this institution, so l'ar as the same is visible to the public, is, and since the opening of tho office in Atlanta, has ever been conducted in the usual manner, —advan- ces are made, loans granted, exchange sold, deposits received, and collections for distant Dunks and merchants attended to, upon the same terms, and apparently in the same spirit of accommodation and fair dealing, ns are custom ary with the principal Banks of Geor gia. I have heard of no instance, in which complaint has been made of unfaithfulness, fraud or negligence, or in which an obligation imposed by law or usage lias not been prompt ly met. “All tbc notesoi the Bank circulated in this vicinity, are passed out at the Dank’s counter, in tho various business transactions there tak ing place daily; and these notes, with all others issued hy the institution, are promptly redeemed in gold or silver, whenever presented for that purpose. The only other channel of cir culation. as lain informed, which the institution has, is through its agent at Chicago. This individual, although nominally an agent of the Dank, really does business on his own account, being, as it were, a wholesale purchaser of tho notes and usiug them afterwards for his own benefit and at hia own risk. He pays the Dank for them in bills on New York, which bills are secured by produce shipped for mar ket, by satisfactory endorsers, or by both.— This turn! supplies the Dank with Northern Exchange, and is drawn upon by the Cashier as occasion may require, or, if need be, it is Converted into specie to replenish the vault. “Notes are furnished to the agent at a lower rate ot interest, than to other individuals; a deduction being aiade on account of the large amount to which lie deals, and on account of his ni<l in protecting the circulation at t’hiengo and the North West. He affords this by re ceiving the notes iH payment for exchange on New \ ork, thus making Atlanta money servo the same purpose to the business man of (’lii cago. in the great matter of procuring New \in k funds, us gold or silver. Notes thus re ceived. are again put in circulation by the agent, and whatever profit or losses accrues, is not ot the Dank, but his own—the capital employed being his also.” The following is the latest published state of the condition of the Dank, made on the 10th February. 1865: UK so I UCK.s.

Smith, S. C. lligginson, President, and J. it. Valentine, Cashier, for a violation of the Penal Code. According to tho Penal Code, the pun ishment of directors or officers of a Dank for violating its charter is imprisonment in the Penitentiary. GEORGIA. LEGISLATURE. On rcHpomleiiru of the Savannah Journal. Fuidav, Feb. 8. Horst: of Ki;i*ttksfntativks. —The House this morning reconsidered the rejection of the bill on yesterday, proposing the construction of a railroad through Union county, to connect with the North-eastern railroad. They reject ed a bill by a vote of 34 to 68, appropriating $20,000 to improve the navigation of the Oc mulgce and Altaniaha rivers between Macon and Darien. Two bills to incorporate banks, one in the city of Griffin and the other in Co lumbus, were passed by the House. Also, a bill fixing and regulatingthe fees of ordinaries, clerks, sheriff s, coroners, justices of the peace, and constables, jailors, iYc., after undergoing a thorough investigation by the Judiciary Committee, was passed by the House. The standing committees of the House seem to have discharged their duties with commend able industry, and their recommendation of a measure rarely ever fails to be approved by the House. Notwithstanding the joint resolution to ad journ on tlie 20tli of this month, adopted by both Houses, 1 see no reasonable prospect of being able to do so, unless a large amount of business is left undone. I never have seen a Legislative body more industrious or orderly, and more disposed to work through their busi ness, yet 1 have no question the interest of the State will demand a few days beyond the 20th to finish the business. A bill to appropriate a sum of money to erect a monument to the memory of the lion. A. J. Miller, deceased, was offered this after noon by Mr. Phillips. The bill relative to the State Printer, print ing &c., consumed the remainder of the day and without any definite action thereon, the House adjourned to 74 o’clock, P. M. Senate.—l hardly know whether to charge upon the Senate, too precipitate action or a laudable desire, to pass no bill of a wrong character, or leave unacted on any measure of an important nature, hut it is certainly true, that more reconsiderations have taken place this session they have ever occurred in any previous one. I believe the ruling motive is to have correct and useful legislation, though sometimes it seems, they are not as prompt in its attainment with a view to the economy of time, as might be. To-day there were no less than five motions to reconsider bills, either passed or rejected, on yesterday, and much time was taken up in their discussion. The bill which contempla ted removal of the disqualification of Admin istrators, Executors and Guardians, from the office of Ordinary, was the first in order a>vl was reconsidered. ‘The -two Bank Charters whichwere defeated yesterday, also reconsidered ; one was for the town of Ringed—the other for Madi son, Morgan county. A long Message was received from thu Gov ernor, in relation to the sale of the iron of the Western & Atlantic Railroad—which was the subject of so much contemptible vituperation, on the part of certain newspapers, during the last canvass iu Georgia. The letters of Major Howard, and James F. Cooper, Superintendent of the Western it At lantic Railroad, were entirely satisfactory on the subject, and will, I presume, be published. A bill to allow persons who are legally di vorced to marry again, passed tho Senate. Nothing else of interest. Cotton Seed Oil. The proprietors of one of our linseed oil mills have commenced the manufacture of oil from cottonseed, and about four hundred bags of the seed arrived here this week from Mem phis, to be used lor this purpose. The oil is used lor burning. How far the parties will succeed in their enterprise, remains to be de monstrated. AYo believe tlm manufacture of oil from cotton seed has been carried on in the South to a greater or lesser extent, for several years ; at N&tcilez wc botiu.c, one ot* those mills has been in operation for some ten years, but, so far, the oil has not come into general use. The difficulty seems to bo in clarifying, as it will not burn in a crudejstate. Should our enterprising citizens succeed in preparing the oil for use, it will prove a most important article ot commerce. —Cincinnati l’ricc. Current. The Wakulla Times of the 30th ult. says: “ Perhaps there is now more cotton seed oil used for table and other purposes than even consumers themselves are aware of, to say nothing of the soap, which is of a superior quality, made from tho refuse of the oil after clarifying. ()n this subject, a friend, whose statements may be relied on, writes us: “ I notice in a Western paper that a concern in Cincinnati lias commenced the manufacture of oil from cotton seed. I will mention a few tacts, which may be of use to somebody.— There is a prejudice against cotton seed oil, but it is owing mainly to the fact that the seed have been extensively used for that purpose without hulling—the hull imparting to the oil a bitter taste, and a gummy substance, which iujured it for drying, audeausesa smoke when burning. Notwithstanding this, quantities of this oil have been mixed with linseed and lard oils, and the buyers have been none the wiser for it. Some three years since a friend of mine commenced the manufacture of oil from cotton seed. Tho seeds were first perfectly hulled, so that nothing but the meat of the seed was used. “ Alter the oil wasextraeted.it went through a clarifying process, (a simple one, but very perfect,) leaving it as clear and as pure as the best olive. For burning it has no superior, as it gives a clear brilliant light, without smoke, and for tho table it can scarcely be surpassed, tor it has deceived, and is still deceiving many good judges of tho article. Indeed, my friend assured me that he was unable to fill all tin* orders for oil put up for the table—hut lie ad ded : We dare not call it t’otton Seed Oil, lest it might prejudice the sale. “ Woof the Cotton growing States can safe ly feel ourselves perfectly independent of the world for oil for all purposes.” New Hampshire Politics. CoN. oim, N. ][., Tuesday, Feb. 6, 1860. The New Hampshire American State Conven tion to-day was attended by about 600 Dele gates. Gov. Metcalf was nominated by acclamation, and Greeuleaf Cummings, of Lisbon, was chos en tor Railroad Commissioner. A mass meeting held in the afternoon was largely attended. The Hon. John H. Hale, Amos Tuck and Geo. Nesmith were among the speakers. The Democrats anticipate u grand rally on Thursday next, when the Hon. John B. Wel ler, of California, Howell Cobb, of Georgia, and J. L. Orr, of South Carolina, aro expected to hold forth. The Steamer's News. Last night at ten o’clock, we received the telegraph news, by the steamer Persia.

The Belguique put back in a leaking condi tion. The Arago arrived at Southampton on the 25th ult. Kelly’ and Gilmour. of Manchester, have failed. Russia’s sincerity is very* much questioned, as formerly; but appearances are all fair and straightforward. It is rumored that an armis tice, for three months, has been agreed upon. France, England and Austria still accord, al though it is foreseen that grave questions must arise during the negotiations. No place of meeting has yet been decided upon. A despatch of Saturday says it will certain ly be either Paris or London ; and, also states that Baron Bulow will be the Russian pleni potentiary. It will be as late as Feb. 2d, be fore all signatures can be appended to the agreement to meet. The ships Horizon, Endcna and Mary Green arc lost. The public aro interested iu knowing all the truth of the alleged failure of the Jerome Clock Company in Connecticut, and the in volvement of Mr. P. T. Barnuin. Mr. B. has enjoyed the reputation of the possessijn of groat wealth for years, and lias also been es teemed a shrewd business mail, The manner in which the alleged failure is said to have oc curred, namely, by his leaving his name at tached in blank to various liabilities, has done much to weaken confidence iu his business qualifications. The Hartford Courant publish es a statement of the assets and liabilities of the Clock Company. The former is set down at $477,159, according to Mr. Jerome’s valua tion, which is reduced, however, by amount of deductions on various items, and by mortgage collaterals, to $220,144. The amount of debts is $555,843, $150,000 of which is mortgage debt to Barnuin. Barnuin says he is indorser for $510,000, and, as wc arc informed by the Courant, “ proposes to give SIOO,OOO to be released from his endorsements and acceptances, and the creditors propose to release him if he will re linquish all his mortgage and pay $150,000. 4he creditors propose to make anew company, witli a capital of $250,000, made up of the pa per of the old company*. There is a large amount of material, which is of little value ex cept to be worked up into clocks, audit is said there is now a large demand, and the business, with economy, can be made good. It is be lieved, by those who say they know, that if this proposition is carried out all will get their Ray. The Jerome Company has some ten or fifteen agencies in different parts of the world, which is tho cause of their failure.” The C/OUVRIIt Htivtv;** tl,3V<- Kv.l buuu ournv Oillttl’ failures at Bristol, growing out of the Jerome suspension.— Charleston Courier. The Salamander—Pseudostoma Pinetorum, Raff. This curious animal abounds in the sandy j districts of Middle and Southern Georgia, if j wo were to judge from tho innumerable hil locks thrown up by them, all over the pine lands. Up to this present date, however, it has not been our lot to get the sight of one, nor have we seen many persons who profess to have seen them, although living for years in the districts infested by them. Several years since, wc received an application from Prof. Baird, of the Smithsonian Institute, for speci mens of this animal, and we have been endea voring to procure one, but have failed to tho present date. Some confusion seems to exist in the public mind in reference to the species to which they I belong. Some affirming that they are a kind ; oflizzard, others that they assemble the go pher, and still a third, that they belong to the weasel or rat tribe. It is true that the fabled | salamander, which could stand the lire without 1 injury, was represented as a lizzard, and one i species of Hazards are called salamanders by ! naturalists, to which class the spring lizzard I belongs. But the genuine salamander, of | which we are treating, belongs to the mamma j Ha, genus Kodentia, and is a kind of ground i rat. A gentleman who has frequently killed them, • say’s that they never or rarely appear above the ground ; lienee very few persons have ever seen them. The only way to kill them is to find where a fresh mound has been thrown up, and sit near by and watch, until the dirt be gins to move. By shooting n little below the surface you may chance to kill one, if you wait lor him to make his appearance you will wait in vain. We hope some of our sportsmen will try their luck shooting salamanders, and bring us the first trophy they win, and it shall be given as a rare tribute to the natural history of Georgia.— Sparta Georgian.
