Tlkj “sight-seeing’ portion of our cituens liiii'l their name is legion) have already been largely favored this winter. have h.nl exhibitions of various kinds, following eacli other in rapid succession, and among them one or two Circus troupes of decided protioien ey. But there arc “a few more of the same sort left,” and at their head stands Ballard, Hailey & Co.’s Circus, which will perform here on Monday and Tuesday next. The fame ot this company precedes them and warrants us in predicting that they will draw crowded tents and give entire satisfaction during their per formances here. You who have “halves to spend, prepare to spend them now; and be sure to take the boys nlong—for many a. juve nile gymnastic feat is destined to receive its impulse from the Circus exhibitions ot this gay season; and the memorable jokes of the clowns will live long in the mouths of “young Americans.” The Legislature. Our reports of the doings of this body, it will ho seen, only embrace Tuesday last. Wc learn verbally that ou Wednesday the impres sion generally prevailed that the sesssion would have to be extended to the 25th inat., to ena ble the two houses to get through with their business. —•— There is no intelligence yet of the missing steamship Pacific. Two steamers have been sent, out from New York to search for her.— If she put back into the port of Liverpool, or any other British port, the next steamship (the Atlantic will bo due in a day or two) will probably bring tidings of her. There is, we think, no reason yet for very serious appre hensions as to the safety of her passengers. - Hon. Robert Toombs, of Georgia, declining to receive any compensation for his lectures at Boston, the committee, at his request that the amount should be given to a society for aiding emigrants, have paid over the sum of SUM) to the German Emigrant Aid Society of that city. - ’ — Pensacola and Georgia Railroad. The Supreme Court of Florida having deci ded infavor of the constitutional rightof coun ties to impose a tax for purposes of internal improvement, the Floridian is of opinion that the entire Pensacola and Georgia Hailroad “will be placed under contract instanter, and prosecuted with vigor to early completion.” ■ One of the reports concerning the war, brought by the Arabia, was that Prince Pns kiewitch was dead, and that his last words were an injunction to the Czar to make peace. We now learn by the Persia that Paskicwitch is not dead yet, and of course his “dying in junction” was oil a fabrication.’ lie has an internal cancer, however, and cannot long sur vive. — - California Senator. We observe by the news in detail brought by the steamship Prometheus, that Ex.-Gov. Foote was the most prominent candidate of the Know-Nothings in the Legislature of Cali fornia tor the seat in the United States Senate : that, attar several days unsuccessful balloting, lie withdrew, but was afterwards re-nominated, there was a split, or rather a refusal to give up individual preferences, in the Know-Noth ing party, and lienee the failure to elect. It was thought that anew man would have to be brought forward, and the impression prevailed that. Hon. W. L. Ferguson, of Sacramento, would be taken up. The Democrats (who, in the Senate, are in a minority of only two) are using, and will continue to use, every effort to prevent an election. The inauguration of Gov. Johnson took place on the Bth ult. The Capture of Herat. When it was first reported that the Persians had captured Herat, the London Times con tradicted it; but later accounts seem to es tablish it beyond controversy—indeed the British press, instead of now denying it, are loudly denouncing the barbarity and cruelty which they impute to the Persians, hoping thereby to rouse up the warlike Atfglinns to war with Persia. From Lippincott's Gazetteer and other sour ces, wc derive the following information in re lation to Herat: It is a largo and important city in a small independent chiefship of the ■ ame name, and lips between Persia and Aff ghaiiistan, on tl H > British overland route to India, and commanding the trade ns well as the trausporsation along the route. In INiS A had 45,000 inhabitants. That year the Persians laid siege to if, hut the British threw “Ulcers as well as troops into it to protect it, at the same time tlin itening Persia with an attnek from the Persian Gulf, and thus com pelled the latter to raise the siege, ilt was really to protect this place that the British then iuterferred with the affairs of Yffghauis tan and established anew government there, against which its people rebelled in 184”, and so signally routed the British and their party, driving them from the country with terrible daughter.) Herat has several times been loken by tlie Persians, ami ns often re-captured •'3 the Affghaus—the British always hereto fore strenuously opposing every effort of Per sia to take or hold it. Its capture now is doubly disastrous and annoying to Great Bri tain. bocaiisc Persia lias evidently been insti gates to invade it by Russia, who is pushing her conquests in the same direction, and bv the capture of Kars now commands the over land route to India at a point farther West.— It is a significant indication of England's pres ent weakness that she does not openly attempt to retake Herat from Persia, which she only hesitated to do because such a step would ally I ersia with Russia, and India would doubtless soon be invaded by the armies of the two latter powers, and, perhaps, a rebellion of the discontented tribes stirred up. If the war continues, important event* will probably transpire in tltjs port the world One of the Ghaileston papers denies the truth of the statement, which has ‘lately bet-u circulating ou flic credit ol yneof its city co temporaries, that the elephant lostoverboard from a vessel outside the bay “f Charleston made its way til'elyto laud in ft storm. ♦ -*r- For some time the authorities of New York city have been resolved on having a great Central Park,’ further up town and much larg er than the old. one at tlie head of Nassau street; hut legal obstacles have heretofore stood fn the way of the project. These, it is stated, have now been removed, mid tlie Park will be rapidly constructed. It into cover an area of 700 acres of ground, and N estimated to cost Sn,<MMl,(Miil. ♦ The New York Evening Post learns that 1820,000 were bet by different parties in New York city ou the Persia’s making her late trip from Liverpool to New York in eight days. The losers will probably be more cautious in staking their money hereafter against the un certain elements. ♦ George A. Coffey, of Pennsylvania, late *i’residentof the “Republican Convention” of Pennsylvania, lias come out with a letter, openly repudiating his connection with that party. Feeling in Russia respecting the Peace. The Ceustitutionel publishes tlie following letter, dated St. Petersburg, January lti, in the evening. It gives un account of the effect produced at the Russian capital by the Czar’s acceptance of the Austrian proposals : A report is going tlie round like wild fire. 1 The Emperor is said to “have given his tullic j sion to the Austrian ultimatum. No one will i believe it to be true. Nevertheless, it is so. I No member of the Imperial family, or of the Council of the Empire, not one of tlie Minis ters, nor even M. do Nesselrode, could have predicted this morning the pacific reply of Czar Alexander 11. For the last few days Prince Alexander Gort schakoff, the Russian Envoy at Yiejma, has kept the telegraph in continual play, appeal ing to the good sentiments of tlie Russian Gov ernment in favor of peace. He pointed out tlie serious consequences that would result from a categorical refusal. This morning the Emperor Alexander sent for the Chancellor and M. deSeniavin, to make them acquainted with tlie decision lie had adopted, and liis wish that it should be imme diately communicated to Count Valentine Jis terhazy. It was the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs who was charged to take the note to tlie Austrian Plenipotentiary. At the same time a summary of the note was for warded by telegraph to Vienna. Count Nesselrode’s notification to Count Es terhazy commenced as follows: “in giving additional proof of thopacific sentiments which animate him in the interest of the balance of power of Europe, his Majesty, my august mas ter, lias wished to testify publicly the price he attaches to consolidate the bonds of friendship which unite him to the Court of Vienna and to the other Courts of Europe.” The Emperor Alexander appears to have consulted no one but himself in these grave circumstances. lie has just charged the Grand Duke Nicholas with the delicate mission of communicating liis decision to his brother, the Grand Admiral Constantine. We shall only know to-morrow at St. Petersburg what passed at that interview. At the moment 1 write. Cabinet couriers are starting in all directions with dispatches for the different sovereigns of Central Europe. Iho representatives of the ’Foreign .States at the Russian Court are on their way to the Chancery, to congratulate the Government of the Emperor. Count Valentine Esterhazy was not the last. lie seems much rejoiced at the unfomon issue of hia mission; but lie found M. de Nesselrode very reserved, and by no means disposed to give way to ebullitions of tenderness. The impression produced on the population of the capital, by the news of the decision of the Czar, is precisely this : great incredulity among the lower classes, and in the higher classes, where passing events arc known soon er and better, profound astonishment, and some expressions of discontent. I have no other news to communicate to-day. Groups are assembling in the streets, discuss ing the great news. A groat number openly manifest tlioir satisfaction, but the “ < >ld Rus sians,” tlie partisans of war at all price, are in consternation, and do not hestatc to declare that the Emperor Alexander 11. will not find a diplomatist who will affix his signature to a peace oonelud ed under such circumstances. Another Escape of Slaves. There seems to boa determination to make Mr. Gaines, the citizen of Boone county, Kv. who claims four of tho recent party of fugi tives, realize the fact that negroes can run away. We learn from good authority that tour more of bis slaves escaped from liis plan tation last night, and, asyet, their whereabouts have not been discovered. It is supposed, however, that they are still in Kentucky under the protection of an agent of the U. G. R. ft. In fact, it is quite certain they have not yet crossed tho river. The party consists of two women, a man and a small child. Out of ele veu slaves Mr. Gaines lms now but three, and, to judge from late events, there is no telling hoiv long he can rely ou their services, lie is now. and lms been for several days in the city attending to the present pioseeutiou. Cincinnati Toms. ■ - -+ It is stated that there iv kept at the \. York Dost Office a list of the Cashiers of bauks in the United States. M lieu letters are found di rected to that city to Cashiers who do not re side there, this list is consulted, the error cor rected, and the letter duly forwarded to its proper destination, It appears from this list that no loss than 503 letters for Cashiers have been misdirected to New York siuoe January Ist, 18t>4, all of which were re-directed and forwarded to their proper address. What a commentary ou the carelessnessof correspond ents, all of whom, probably, charged the de lay upon the Post Uffico Department. Coosa Silver Alines. Probably it is not generally kuovvu that Coosa contains some valuable Silver mines. We were shown the other day by Mr. Arnold, of llockford, two half dollar pieces just from tlie mint, the ore out of which this was taken came from the mine worked by Mr. Vine SmiHi. We have one of these half dollar pie ces in our possession, if any person desires to see it they can have their euriositr satisfied by calling around.— Wrtnmpka ftinpatch. The American State Council of Louisiana has resolved in favor of Mr. Fillmore for the next Presidential term. The small-pox is prevailing in Philadelphia to a considerable extent, and during tbe past mouth caused no less than 100 deaths, prinei- ■ pally children. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. <Vi|v|x>iii!r!n ‘ ol the Savannah Journal. Ti chhav, Felt. 1”. .Sum n;—in this brunch of the General A.~ scmbly to-day the Bill amending the act of in corporation of the Mechanics’ and Trader* Bank of the city of Savannah, was passed with an amendment, that each of its branches should be required to redeem in specie all bills issued by them. A bill to incorporate the Welaka steamboat Company, whs passed, whilst the bill to incor porate the Georgia and Florida ,Stcam-packet < ouipnny, was lost—as it seemed to bo the opinion of many Senators that its provision.- abrogated the liabilities of common carriers— by our Common Law—ami they preferred that they should be left where they nro A bill to limit the service of Grand and Petit Jurors of the City Court of Savannah—to ex empt keepers ol‘ cemeteries from service on juries, was passed. A bill to confer additional powers on the 1 Mayor of the < ‘ity of Savannah, was passed. The reconsidered bill to charter the North Western Bank of (lie State of Georgia, was passed to-day by a vote of 44 to 21. Tho committee appointed before the recess \ to investigate the nature of the suits against the State of Georgia in Tennessee, and to re commend action in relation thereto, made a report this evening. A bill giving discretionary power to the j Governor over so much of the Western and | Atlantic Railroad as is located in Tennessee, was offered by Mr. Dabney, ol'Gordon county, one of the committee ; and this bill will be the subject of discussion in the Senate on Friday next. Nothing else of interest to-day. Hoi sk or Representatives —This morning tlie House, by a vote of 42 to 01, refused to reconsider the bill, rejected on yesterday, ap propriating 850,000 to aid in the settlement of tiic Territory of Kansas. Dr. Phillips, of Habersham, supported the motion for recon sideration by some pointed and forcible re marks, ami was replied to by Mr. Harris, of Fulton. The bill to amend the charter of the Mechan ics’ and Traders’ Bank of Savannah, and to ap ply the provisions of the same to the Bank of Commerce, which had previously passed the House and Senate, with amendments, was tak en up, and the amendments of the Senate con curred in. The Committee on tlie Blind Academy of tlie city of Macon made a report, and the bill ap propriating $20,000 to erect suitable buildings in the city of Macon for the institution, was read the third time and passed. .V bill heretofore offered by Mr. Lewis, of Hancock, authorizing tlie Ordinaries of this State to pay accounts of teachers of poor chil dren, who have not been returned, was pass ed. Its object is to save the endless applica tions on this subject to the L igislatnro, in be half of those who arc engage 1 in this business, and was very proper in its objects. Tlie bill providing for attachments in certain cases, authorizing a seizure of the property of the citizens of those States who refuse to sur render fugitives from labor, was called up and discussed by Mr. .Tones, of Muscogee. Mr. Crook, of Chattooga, moved a substitute for it, providing I‘ov the levying a tax upon all goods, and articles manufactured in such free State. Upon motion ICO copies were ordered to be printed, and the whole question was postponed until Thursday next. Anew county bill, making anew county of portions of Early and Randolph, to be called Miller, was passed this evening by a large ma jority. The House made a bill appropriating SIOO,- DOO to the reconstruction of the Capitol the special order for to-morrow. 1 have no idea, from the indications thus far, that any sum will be appropriated on this subject, except to stop the leaks in the roof of the present old building. Its permanent con tinuance here is as uncertain as ever. Congressional. Washington, Feb. 11. In tlie Senate, a resolution was adopted, in structing the committee on Military Affairs to inquire into the expediency of abolishing the Military Asylum at Harrodsburg, Ky. The Host Office Committee was instructed to , consider the subject of a cheap oecan postage. Tlie Committee on Judiciary are instructed to consider tlie expediency of an appointment of a Commissioner to revise the public statutes, so as to reduce them, and to connect the text so as to render it intelligible to all. On motion of Air. Fisk, the Secretary of War was requested to report whether any and what additional fortifications were necessarv for our harbor defences. In the House, two ballots more were taken for Vrinter, without any election. Mr. Cullum retains in office Messrs. Barclay, Luck and Harris as assistant clerks, removed 2<i others and supplied the vacancies. ♦- Tho Florida Claims. I It may be of interest to our readers to know i what the “Florida Claims” are, which arc now ’ pending before the Court of Claims at Wash ington. and which are being pressed by some ot tlie first, lawyers in the country. The Flor ida Claims arose under the treaty of 181!) with Spain, by which Florida was acquired by the United States anil a part of ivliat is now the State of Texas was ceded to Spain. The 9th article provided that there should be a recip rocal renunciation of certain enumerated Claims on the part of the respective citizens or subjects of each country upon tlie other. Those claims were settled in pursurnoc of the 10th article, which provided that tho United States, exonerating Spain from all demands on I account of such claims, should make satisfuc tion for the same to our citizens to an amount I not exceeding five millions of dollars. But ! tl *e last clause of tlie 9th article provided for i satisfaction by tlie United States for injuries, if any, which, by process of law, should bo ! established to have been suffered by Spanish , | officers and individual Spanish inhabitants, by | the then late operations of the American army in Florida. It is under this clause that the claims now before thcCourt have ariseu. The l amount claimed exceeds u million of dollars. A letter has been received at the State De partment at Washington, D.C.,from Honolulu, Sandwich Islands, dated December 4tli, in which the writer states that strong fears were , t by the citizens of llilo that the lava would destroy the town. The fiery stream had reach ed within eight miles of the place, and from the activity of the volcano and the rupid pro gress of the lava, the worst apprehensions were entertained. + Rust and Greeley. lhe lion. Albert Ilust, of Arkansas, appear ed betore J ustiee Morrell yesterday afternoon in response to a writ issued upon the affidavit ot Mr. Treadwell, a citizen of New York, to answer to the charge of having made an assault upon Mr. Horace Greeley on or about the 29th ultimo. Mr. Rust appeared at 11A.M. this day and gave bail in the sum of SSOO for his ap pearance.— Wmhingtun Organ 12/A. An Unexpected Proposal of Marriage. FROM TlfK “Willow HEXtOTT PAPKES.

The New York Herald of Thursday says:— The Star of the West, Capt. Miner, sailed yes terday, at three, P. M., from pier No. 3 North river, with nearly 700 passengers on board, among whom were several of the arrested Fil libusters whose eccentric behavior has caused so much trouble to the United States govern ment authorities in this city. There was a large assemblage at the pier to witness the departure, and rather more than the usual amount of shouting, swearing, crowd ing, crying and excitement was indulged in. There was a U. S. Marshal on board, but liis occupation was gone, and the suspected Fillibusters walked tlie deck triumphantly, without the fear of the District Attorney bc lore their eyes, and with none to hurt them or make them afraid. —♦ W asiiington, Feb. 10.—Gen.

A document has been received by Governor Chase, of Ohio, addressed to liis Excellency, and signed “J. 11. Lane, Chairman Ex. Com. K. TANARUS., C. Robinson, Governor elect of Kansas; Geo. W. Deitzlcr, Sec., which states that an overwhelming force of the citizens of Missouri, supplied with artillery, is about to invade the Territory: and asks for assistance from the people ol the State.
