LARUKST CITY CIRCULATION.
The Muscogee Rail Road.
We congratulate tlio stockholder!*, as well
as the cizena generally of thin portion of the
State, on the very favorable report of its last
half-year’s business made by the Muscogee
ttailroail company through our columns yes*
terday. A not balance, after paying all run
ning expenses, of near ISO per cent, out of its
business, exhibit excellent management, and
is a measure of profit which but few railroads
realize; and a statement so encouraging must
have the effect of greatly enhancing the value
of the stock. The business of our city has
been immensely promoted by this road and its
Alabama connections, and the .trail** thus
brought to our doors, as well as the facilities
afforded to our local commerce, will be neces
sarily permanent and yearly increasing. The
Opelika and the Girard and Mobile Railroads
have been, und must continue to be, liberal
feeders of tins Muscogee road; and every mile’s
advance of the latter work will augment the
trade which it brings to our city and the busi
ness of the Muscogee Railroad. It is thus ap
parent that the business of the Muscogee road
can “take no step backward,” hut must go on
increasing and extending. Its stock ought to
tiring as high a market price as any other
railroad stock in the State, for not only lire its
present profits larger than almost any other,
hut its business is of that necessary and sub
stantial kind which must he permanent.

The'Justioes of the Inferior Court of Carroll
county, Ga., advertise for proposals for buil
ding a brick Court House in the town of Car
rollton. Rids to he opened on the 10th of
March next.
Information Wanted.
Mr. Spencer G. Moore, living near Nota
sulga, Ala,, desires to inquire of the wherea
bouts of his sou, Albert LaFayctte Moore, who
left home about the Ist of December. lie is
about 10 years of age. Any one knowing his
whereabouts, will confer a favor by addressing
(lie father at Notusulga, Macon county, Ala.
The Pacific.
We have at length tidings of this steamer
which but awaken apprehensions for her safe
ty. Stic sailed on her appointed day, the 28d
nil., three days in advance of the Persia, and
has now been out twenty days. It is hardly
possible that her coal could have lasted so
long, ami the probability is, therefore, that if
still art oat she is slowly progressing under
canvas alone, llut after the terrible fate of
the President, the Arctic and the Nashville,
the public mind is quickly agitated and alarm
ed by the failure of a steamship to make her
trip within a reasonable time ; and such is now
the feeling at New York. We learn by tele
graph that tho steamship Alabama, of the N.
York and Savannah line, lias been dispatched
in search of the Pacific.
In a number of the churches of Cincinnati,
on Sunday before last, prayers were offered
up for the escape of the fugitive slaves from
Kentucky, and from several pulpits incendia
ry sermons were preached, the object of which
was to stir up popular rebellion against the
laws! When fanaticism and rascality enlist
religious hypocrites on their side, it is difficult
to overcome them ; and we should not, there
fore, he surprised to hear of rioting and trea
son nt Cincinnati.
Charleston Baces.
The races over the Washington Course clos
ed ou Saturday. The handicap purse, three
mile heats, was taken by Floride, after four
closely-contested heats. Mary Blucskin won
ihe first heat, Nannie Lewis the second, and
Floride the third and fourth. Frankfort,
Adelina and Jack Gamble were also beaten.—
The second and last race a single dash of
three mites—was won by t'barite Bell, beating
Invincible and Frank Allen, in the good time
of 6:62.

Tho Accident to Gen. Cass.
The telegraph has briefly reported the seri
ous accident to this eminent and venerable
statesman, on Friday last. Fullor accounts
inform us that he was descending tho steps of
the I‘ateut Otliee. when he slipped on the ice
and fell some distance ns is supposed, as he
was seriously injured : hut no one saw him
fall. When discovered he was utterly insen
sible, his head badly cut, and his clothes cov
ered with blood, lie was taken into the Ta
lent Office, physicians sent for, and after re
ceiving aid from them and recovering his con
“ciousness, he was conveyed to his lodgings at
the National Hotel. We are rejoiced to learn
by telegraph that he wus considered out of
danger, and was improving, on Monday.— !
Universally regarded ns tike Nestor of the Sen
ate—-the ablest and most patriotic survivor of
the great men who lately contributed to its
character ami renown—the whole country i
would sorrow for his loss.
The Washington Organ says that the Gen
eral's first words, when lie had partially re
covered consciousness, were “Do, Morey,” l>o,
Mnrcy,” as if urging some measure or policy
upon the Secretary of State.
The Uncertainty of the Ballot Box.
Three of the many political parties in New
York have been engaged in a very curious tri
angular contest over a seat on the Supreme
t'ourt bench. It appears that at the late elec
tion, Davis, the Know-Nothing candidate, had
a large plurality over his competitors, but the
printed tickets east for him did not state, ac
cording to the legal requirement, the oHice he
was running for; his election was therefore
declarod illegal, and Cowles, the Soft Demo
cratic candidate, received the Governor’s com
mission. But in the meantime, l'eabody, the
Black Republican candidate, was prosecuting
his claim before the Supreme Court, and that
body has awarded him the sent, on the ground
that his ticket was the oidy one worded as ex
plicitly as the law requires. This settled the
matter, and a legal technicality prevailed over
the popular choice. Ours is a government of
the people and laic.

News Extraordinary.
Be it known unto all men, that this ninth
day of Feb., A. D., 185 G, at thecity of Girard,
it being tho regular monthly Term of the Jus
tices Court, in Beat No. 2, in the county of
Russell, Ala., held in said city, agreeably to
the statute in such cases made and provided,
nnd the Court being present, with dignified
and solemn countenances, aware of the impor
tance of their legal decisions, and desirous to
impart equal and exact justice to all concerned,
moved majestically to their seats and ordered
their Builitf to make proclamation to all par
ties concerned to come forward and they
should be heard. All of which was well nnd
faithfully proclaimed in due form of law.
When 10, and behold! no one appeared, and
after the most diligent search, no suit or com
plaint, civil or criminal, could be found ; and
after due deliberation, the Bailiff was ordered
to adjourn the Honorable Justices’ Court to the
next Regular Term. A Spectator.
Kansas Emigrant Aid Society.
At a meeting of tlie Executive Committee of
the Kansas Emigrant Aid Society of Mnsco
gee County, held at the Secretary's office at 12
M. on the Gth inst., the following resolution
was offered by T. Lomax, Esq., and unani
mously adopted by the Committee :
Resolved, That the subscriptions to the Kan
sas Emgrant Aid Society of Muscogee countv,
when collected, be ottered to Maj. Jefferson
Buford, of Alabama, on condition that he shall
execute bond payable to the President of this
society, with such security as tlie Executive
Committee shall approve, to transport to Kan
sas, free of charge, one reliable citizen of a
Southern State, within three months from the
Ist April next, for every fifty dollars he may
receive from the society; unless some good
and reliable citizen of Muscogee county shall,
by the 20th March next, accept the proposition
upon the same terms.

Land Warrants.
We extract the following from the financial
‘ column of the Washington Organ, of Friday
last:
Land Warrants have come in freely during
the past week, and have declined one or two
cents per acre. Several of the New York deal
ers refused to buy in large quantities on yes
terday, and offered to sell 120’s at $l,01f„
$1,02. .Should the supply be increased from
the country, which is expected, the prices wc
think must decline, as the demand West has
fallen oft'.
Mobile, financially, is in a bad way. The
present deficiency of the treasury is about
$30,000 and the revenue for its payment will
not exceed $20,000. The city expenses are
about SBO,OOO per year, and its revenue only
$04,000 —leaving a deficiency of about $16,-
000 on the commencement of the municipal
year of 1866. The tax on real estate in the
city is 2.70 on the sloo—2 per centof it being
a railroad tax.
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
i\j. rusjMfmlfiicv of tli Huvaiiiiuli .Journal.
Saturday, Feb. 8.
House or Hkphkhkntativkk. —The House
met pursuant to adjournment, and passed a
bill of the Senate changing the time of holding
the Superior Courts in the counties of Meri
wether and Butts.
The bill relative to public printing was then
taken up us unfinished busiuess, and after some
time spent in the reconsideration of the same,
a substitute offered by Mr. Lawton was adopt
ed and passed.
The House adjourned until 71 o’clock, P. M'., i
and will employ the evening session, I pre
sume, in the reading of bills the second time,
or final action upon those of a local nature.
Senate. —Some important general legisla
tion was carried through this branch of the
General Assembly to-day. A bill providing
for the mode and maimer of the election of the
Attorney General and all the Solicitor Gener
als in this State, by the people, was passed.—
Heraftor, therefore, these officers will be elect
ed, either in October or January, by the Peo
ple, and will hold their offices four years, as
they now do under Legislative appointment.
A bill to permit lime to be carried free of
freight on the Western and Atlantic Railroad
—when it is intended for agricultural purposes,
was defeated by a vote of 30 to 40.
An important measure—enacting that here
after no man who becomes Judge of the Courts
in this State, shall sit on any case where he
was interested as counsel—and to provide for
the trial of those cases. This is a wholesome
enactment. It is nothing less than gross cor
ruption, which should he punished by the
people, as Lord Bacon was punished by the
Parliament of England, for a man to preside
on the Bench of any of our Courts in any case
where his feelings can be supposed to lie en
listed in any way that can interfere with strict
justice, not even in a case where a principle
is involved —by which any of his cases might
lie determined. It is known to readers of
History, that England was once cursed by a
•Sir Edmund Saunders as Chief Justice of the
King’s Bench, who was elevated to that place
for the undisguised purpose of giving judg
ment for the destruction of the charters of the
city of London, and then strengthening the
despotism of the land. A free people cannot
he too jealous of the recurrence of such out
rages.
A bill to compel the superintendent of the
Western and Atlantic Railroad to sell at pub
lic outcry such iron as may become useless,
was passed.
The bill for the relief of the Bank of the
State of Georgia, in the case of its having paid
in the tax on the State stock, after the pas
sage of the net of 1852, exempting it from tax,
occasioned considerable discussion and arous
ed the treasury sentinels, and owing to the
objections offered to it, was, oil motion of Sen
ator Screven, referred to a select committee,
which in the afternoon reported unfavorably.
Nothing else of interest in the Senate. I
regret to inform you that intelligence reached
here to-day of the death of a member ol the
House of Representatives—Dr. Caldwell, the
Representative from Pike. That county is
particularly unfortunate, as during the last
session it lost its member, Mr. Arnold.
Mr. Kiddoo, of Randolph county, has been

railroad project.
1 notice in your paper received to-day, some
comments on the resolution of Mr. Spalding of
Mclntosh, in reference to a main trunk Rail
way. The movement is one which awakens
considerable interest among the members of
the Legislature.
Thecommittce consists of the following mem
bers of the Senate: Messrs. Spalding, of
Scriven, Cone, of Greene, Lawton, of Dough
erty, and Atkinson; and of the following Rep
resentatives : Messrs. Lawton, of Chatham.
Crook, of Chattooga, Burnet, Jones, of Musco
gee, and Lewis, of Hancock. This committee
is not only an able one, but combines and rep
resents the interests of every section of the
State. We understand that they will proba
bly report a bill for the construction of a line
of road, beginning at or near the point where
the boundary lines of the counties of Wayne,
Ware and Appling unite west of the Little
Satilla river—running to a point intermediate
between Fort Gaines and the junction of the
Flint and the Chattahoochee river, as the com
missioners may determine, with a view to the
extension of tho line to Pensacola or Mobile—
the road to be called the Atlantic and Gulf
Railroad and to be aided by State subscription
to the stock of tike Company, payable in State
bonds at par. This subscription to he less
than that of individuals, in order that the
latter may manage the affairs of the company.
With this road, all roads in the State shall be
permitted to connect.
This project demands the careful attention
of the people of Georgia, as it is an enterprise
of no small moment to its future interests.
Yesterday 1 informed you that the Judge of
the new Brunswick Circuit is the Hon. A. E.
Cochran.
The Governor in his appointment of this
gentleman, has shown his anxions desire to
provide for the administration of justice in the
newly created Brunswick Circuit, in the best
possible manner, and to gratify a very large
majority of the people of the Circuit, by whom
Judge Cochran had been warmly recommended
for his eminent position through their Repre
sentatives in the Legislature. This gentleman
lias been for many years an able practitioner
in tlie Southern and Oemulgec Circuits, and
has won for himself a high position at the liar,
and is greatly esteemed by liisbrethrcn of the
bar. During the last session of tlie Legisla
ture lie represented tlie county of Wilkinson
in tlie Senate, and to all who watched his
course then, he manifested a desire by his
course in that body to promote the State's
highest interests, lie will no doubt prove
himself entirely worthy of the confidence which
has been reposed in him by the Executive, and
will win new laurels as a judicial officer of
Georgia.
The British Treaty witli Japan differs very
little from that which was made with the U.
Sttites. By the latter, the ports of Simoda
and llakodade were thrown open to American
vessels; by the former, British vessels obtain
tho right of entering and taking supplies at
llakodade and Nagasaki. But as both treaties
contain a clause stipulating that the Japanese
shall eoucede to the foreign power with which
iu contracts equal rights to tlioso enjoyed by
the most favored nation, it would seem to fol
low that the three ports of Nagasaki, Simoda
and llakodade, are at present open to both
British and American vessels. The British
treaty, however, contains no stipulation for
the settlement of foreigners in Japan.

American Sympathies with Russia.
A phrenological examination of the head of
Young America, were the thing possible,
would, we imagine, show a decided indentation
where the organ of Reverence is supposed to
lie situated. In truth this enterprising indi
vidual—otherwise fast young man—has ever
shown a decided aversion for whatever is aged
and venerable. Custom in his vocabulary
’ mwuia dotage; hallowed by time, musty with
‘age; time honored institutiousjabused, ditto,
it is t hings young and growing and strong,
which claim the respect and coramand the as
sistance of this political Sampson. When the |
rest of the world is startled with dismay at
some bold innovation, or at least view it with
cold indifference, it is then tlmt Young Ameri
ca pitches in, and in that language of Hooper’s
hero, “ Somebody is bound to suffer.” ‘A |
reaping machine or a government may be the
result. Something old is “done for,” at any
rate.
It is perfectly natural, therefore, that the
mass of the American people, which, despite
all that may be said to the contrary, is but
another name for the character we have just
attempted to describe, should take sides with
Russia in the war now being waged between
that power and old Europe ; and all other ex
planations which have been given by the fogy
press on this and the other side of the water
to account for so strange a disposition, and all
reasons and remonstrances which have been
urged against it by the “friends of social or
der,” have shot wide of the mark, and dis
played a pitiable ignorance of the subject trea
ted of. In truth nineteen-twentieths of the
American friends of Russia have never known,
nor do they care to know, the cause of the
quarrel iu which they have taken so lively an
interest. The five points with them are five
cyphers ; the holy places, venerable humbugs:
while the bare mention of the “ balance of
power” is “as good as a play’ to excite their
risibilities. Satisfied that justice has nothing
to do with tho strife Young America has sid
ed with Russia because he finds in her a com
panion of his own uge, fresh and vigorous like
himself, while licr antagonists are withered
with age and bloated with disease. It is a
choice between budding greatness and effete
civilization, it is based upon the future, not
the present, and much loss the past. England
mid France have run their races. Russia lias
but entered upon her course. The former
have done all the good they were capable of,
while the latter is full of hope and prorflise.—
The civilization of the former must be trans
ferred to the latter, as that of Rome was to
Britain and Gaul. Civilization ncedeth vigor
to teed on; this England and France can no
longer afford it. The fire which blazed so
brightly through so many centuries has burn
ed out. It remains but to take from its
smouldering nslics a coal with which to kindle
another elsewhere.
Y outig America looks forward to tho time
when, in company with the free and enligh
tened Russ, lie shall visit the ancient capitals
of Western Europe and wander through the
scenes of the glories of by-gone days.—Atlan

Our Relations with Great Britain.
Washington, Feb. 6.
Mr. Buchanan’s letters by the Arabia repre
sent the state of feeling in the British Ministry
as very sensitive on our relations. He had re
ceived the request for Mr. Crompton’s recall
fourteen hours before the sailing of the steam
er, but had not presented it up to that time.—
Consequently no intelligence is received of its
effect Mr. Buchanan was informed, however,
that a positive demand was despatched of the
probable course here on enlistments, and had
doubtless sounded Lord Clareudon. Hence
his misgivings.
Mr. Buchanan thinks there is reasonable
ground for expecting peace on the propositions
presented to Russia, but our other Min
isters do not express the same confidence or
hope. The present plan is regarded by them
as means of preparation by Russia.

It is said that the block houses burnt by the
Indians are to be re-built, as well ns several
others at important posts; three at Fort My

are to be erected at Fort Myers.
The volunteers at Fort Meade are regularly

The United States and Denmark.
N. York, Feb. 4.— The Paris correspondent
ot the Commercial mentions a report that the
United States government had offered Den
mark thirty thousand dollars as complete com
pensation for her expenses heretofore in keep

dition offers a small annual sum for the future
maintenance of signals, light-houses, Kc. The

Threatened Difficulty with France,
A Washington dispatch says: “It has leak
ed out of the State Department that the French
government lias assumed a position in relation
to certain Russian vessels that have been
transferred since the commencement of tho
Eastern war, to citizens of the United States,
being at tlie time ot the transfer in American
poi ts, which it is likely will make difficulty
unless the President faints. A list of tlie ves
sels Ims been furnished to Mr. Mason, our
Minister at Paris, and the determination avow
ed on tlie part of the French ami English gov
ci aments to hold them as lawful prizes of war
if they arc captured. Mr. Mason, it is re
ported, exhibits some apprehension on the \
subject. The correspondence will probably
be called for in a few days.”

thousands of remedies for Diseased Lungs, under the title

for publication, is to Induce the public, or ut least Ik -
who are afflicted, to use one that contains articles “!
Heal Vm in Disease*. lam conscious tlint : 1
so doing, Tam acting most unprofessiouuil.v,and del",
torily to the interests of Medical Science and the rcguLu
Practitioners of Medicine. T refer to Woodman's Ciiern
Expectorant, which is a scientific remedy that I li" 1 ’

, This preparation lias attained a wide celebrity fw"‘
tlie universal success which has attended its use. I
coughs, colds, and in fact, any pulmonary coniplai l ’ 1 ’
Gib medicine, from its peculiar properties as a di-solv u’
and its soothing power to all irritations of the tliroid
will probably be preferred to any other offered to ll: .

also he found excellent, its natural and genial warnio’
keeping the digestive powers in proper tone.
