The Circus.
The performances this afternoon uul to-night
will be a benefit t Madame Louise Toumaire,
the unrivalled equestrian. The skill and
igilitt of this lady on horseback are really
• urprislng, and her feats avo roeeived with
..rent applause. As to-day's performances
,-lose the series in this place, the company
will no doubt bring out their full strength and i

their exercises. Uo early to secure a seat.
Georgia Legislature.
Ou Saturday, the Senate was engaged nearly
ihe whole day upon the bill for the Sale of the
Western and Atlantic Railroad. The sum of
?3,500,000 was inserted as the amount of stock
to he sold to individuals. Without taking a
vote on the passage of the hill, the Senate ad
journed, but it was believed that there was a
large majority in favor of the hill.
In the House, hills were passed to change
iho times of'holding the Superior Courts in the
Pataula and Chattahoochee Circuits and to
add the county of Carroll to the Hit Cougres- i
sioual District. Both of these bills had pro- j
uously passed the Senate. The bill in refer
ence to the I’enitcntiary was considered and
passed. (Wo notice it more particularly in
another article.) A number of bills were read
tho first and second times, and then the llou-e ;
adjourned to Monday.

Tho House Committees.
We observe in some of the papers (and the I
usually correct correspondent of tho Charles
ton Standard is prominent in the matter) u j
good deal of indirect laudation id’ Speaker !
Banks for his appointment ol’ very able South
ern committees. No credit whatever is due i
him for this course, because he has in every
instance overwhelmed Southern tact and tal
ent by a majority ofTrce Soilers on each iui- ■
portant committee. In our opinion the com
mittees nro all very black, ami faithfully min or
the designs of the sectional fanatic who framed
them as well ns the Black Republican party
dint sustains him. IVe venture the assertion
that now, for the first time in our national his
lory, one section of the Union is not only ex
cluded from the bend of every committee of the
least consequence, hut is also in u minority on
every one of them! Never before was sectional
feeling carried so far as to deprive either divi
sion of the Union of tho chairmanship as well
as the majority of overy leading committee.
We have often had Southern Speakers of the
House, but never was the North so slighted
mid insulted by them; never was a seelional
biag and design apparent hi their appointments
“f committees. The generosity and liberality
of Speaker Ranks, indeed! The character of
these appointments unmistakably exhibts him
as “a political grimalkin, purring over paltry
schemes and mousing over sinister designs”—
promoting soctiouul strifes, and concocting
treason to the constitution and the Union.

Tho Vote by States.
On the final vote for Speaker of the House
ot Representatives, the State* divided as fol
lows : For Banks—Maine, Vermont, Massnchu
etts, R. Island,Connecticut, N. York, X. Jersey
N Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin—l I. For Aiken j
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, N. Carolina, I
8. Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Texas,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Missouri, Arkansas,
Tennessee, Kentucky, California—lß. lowa
was equally divided, li will thus he seen that,
• o far as the States were concerned, the vote
was u sectional one. except that lowa was di
vided, and California voted with the South.—
Should the election of President go the House,
however, a protracted and hitter contest may
he expected, and the result cannot now he
foreseen : os Delaware, Maryland, Tennessee
and Kentucky have a majority of Know-Noth
ings in their delegations, Missouri is Whig,
Texas is equally divided, having a Democratic
and Know-Nothing member, and the other
states that'voted for Aiken are Democratic.

Another Revolution in Mexico.
The latest arrival front Vera Crux, brings
accounts of another rebellion in Mexico. Haro

Coinonfort, aiyl had obtained possession of
Puebla, where, it was said, ho was exercising
great cruelty. Comonfort had sent General
ViJlarial, with 3,(KH* men, to attack (lie mo
lutionists, but the issue was unknown at the
latest dates. Should the rebellion make head
way, and Santa'Anna he recalled, he will ex

Georgia Penitentiary.
Ou Saturday last the House of I’epro-enta.-
tivos passed a bill relative to the Penitentiary
of the State, which appropriated $70,000 for i
the purchase of a suitable site at the Stone
Mountain, in Delvalb county, and the erection
•of the necessary buildings. The hill authori
zes the Governor to employ a chief architect,
and to order to the new location such number
of the convicts as he may think proper, under
a suitable guard, to work upon the building.
Such work as they cannot perform is to ho
paid for out of the fund appropriated.

We aro glad to see by the Kufauln and other
Alabama papers, that Major ltuford is receiv

that his company will arrive out in time to he

‘ A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing.”
\i h meeting held in Henry Ward Bcjeclier*
church, week before last, between s3o,t)t)G
and St HUM Ml of the stock **f the Kun.sus Knti
grant Aid Society \va- snb-cribed for in shares
of $2 each. In advocating the subscription,
Beecher .-aid, among ntliev things equally flip
p.mt and unbecoming, that “ the Sharp rifle
wasa aioral uyeut of more power to redeem Kan
sas slaveholders than twenty Bibles.”
This Henry Ward Beecher is a rather smart
specimen of that class of religious demagogues j
and imposters nt the North, who have made
themselves popular and secured fnt stations by
substituting politics or science for religion in
their discourses from the pulpit —men who put
on the priestly garb and assume the title of
ministers of the Gospel, hut whose “sermons”
have no more connection with the Bible or
religion than the jokes of a, circus clown !
have with the verse of Homer or Milton—who ■
have sold thomsclvex mid their talents to
a fashionable aristocracy whose sins have lo
he “whitewashed,” and for whose extenuation
the stern requirements of the Gospel have to i
he ignored or explained away by subtle sopliis- j
try, or shoved into the back-ground by some !
worldly “charity” or “principle” which neither
requires religious devotion nor ton largely taxes
the pockets of the congregation. Reedier him- -
seli'is a ‘■preacher” of the theatrical order, and j
delivers his discourses from a platform in front !
of the pulpit, with a .small table on which to
rest his manuscript while lie “cavort-” upon
the stage and tears to tatters the parts of liis
harangue intended to he striking or impre
sive. Tlie greater portion of Iris ‘•sermon” lie
reads from his manuscript witliall the monoto
ny of a legislative clerk reading sonic long act
of incorporation ; but there are occasional pas
sages in which he wishes to make a display,—
these he commits to memory, and with all the
mock pa - ion of a theatrical Cassius or Hamlet,
he lets off the eloquent declamation reserved
for the occasion, in thcincnutimc striding from
ono end of his platform to theother and throw
ing himself into every attitude pictured in a
school boy’s “Speaker.” This over, he re
sumes liis monotonous reading until another
tragic part, calls for extra performance and
energy, ilis discourses arc usually mi aboli
tion, on some recent striking incident or Ivor- j
rihle accident, on manufactures, or politics—
anything in fact but Christianity or religion;
arid they tally disclose (he character portrayed
bv I’ollok, who
•'Another fkispul preached (Hun Paul's,
Aml one that bad no Saviour in it.”
And the “whited sepulchres” who compose
his large congregation iu Brooklyn persuade
themselves that this is Gospel -worship and
genuine Christianity, and vote him SO,OOO or
SB,OOO a year for leading them in the way to
salvation and eternal life!
In reply to a religious paper >T New York
city, which censured his remark above quoted
about Sharp’s rifle ami the Bible, Beecher de
fends his sentiment by asserting that every
man will admit that to fell a tree an axe is
j more effective than a Bible; when a ship is
sinking at sea, the life-boat and not the Bible
is most likely to afford safety, ‘&c.,*&c.: mak
ing many similar comparisons, but nil of them
referring to physical agencies and effects;
whereas, iu liis lecture, he commended the
rifle as a stronger “moral agent” than twenty
Bibles’ This pitiful and shallow attempt to
justify his impious assertion is worthy of the
politico-religious party to which lie belongs.
It is part ami parcel of the casuistry behind
which they take shelter when the treason of
their “higherlaw” doctrines is exposed, lie
j was repeating the base abolition boast that the
: Sharp rifles in the hands of the Frecsoilcrs of
Lawrence deterred the law and order men from
assailing the town, when banc and Robinson
made their famous “treaty” w ith Gov. .Shan
non ; and lie was urging his pious communicants
to withhold their Bible-distribntion contribu
j tions fortlie time and invest them in funds for
j the purchase of Sharp’s rifle, as a more powerful
“moral ageut.” In plain words, Beecher lack
ed tho courage and candor to say openly that
his bearers should cast aside religion for a
while and resort to violence to make Sonth
; enters adopt their standard of morality, and
tlicrelore lie skulked behind a comparison of
the Bible and the rifle—instituting n nonsensi
cal parallel between a moral and a pbi/xieal
agent, and. quite reversing the “higher law”
rhetoric, ascribed to the latter the superior
virtue and power. Counselling treason and
violence, he yet wished to invest it with the
l garb ot morality and Christianity, and to fur
| thcr his malevolent designs ho was willing to
| degrade and discard the Gospel and ils teacli
j ings.
But the abolition crowing over the “moral
I agency “ and power of Sharp - rifle, as oxcrop- !
litiedin (lie history ot the Kansas di-uirhuti- j
cos. is as shameless and perfidious a reort as
was ever adopted by any body of men. With
these rifles in their bauds, the Free-oilers at
Lawrence quaked with tear of Gov, Shannon
and his pai ty, and pledged themselves not only
to abstain from resistance to Sheriff Jones and j
ether legal officers, hut to assist them in cur
rying out the laws. On the faith of these
promises, the Governor and hi- posse with
drew and left theta unmolested. Now , how
have they redeemed their pledge ‘.’ \Ve have be

sheet) containing a letter from its own “spe
cial correspondent,” dated Lawrence, K. T..

his efforts to bring offenders to justice, the
•Sheriff sent the following note to bane anil
Robinson, the Freesoil leaders wlio made the
treaty with Gov. Shannon, and received the •
reply subjoined. The correspondence needs
no comment :
Lawrence, Jan. 13, 183 b.
tiK.\£EALs Robinsonani>Lank— Gentlemen:
Did you or did you not pledge yourselves, nt i
a council held at Franklin, on the dav of
December last, to assist me, as Sheriff, in the ‘
arrest of any person in Lawrence, against
w hom 1 might have a writ, and to furnish me
witli a posse to enable me to do -o ?
Respectfully,
Samvel J. JoxE.q,
Sheriff Douglas eountv. K. T.
Here is tlie answer:
L v ahk.vi i; Urn, Jan. 18, 18,>B.
Sir: In answer to your note of yesterday,
we state that, at tlie time and place mention
ed, we may have said that we would assist any
proper officer in the service of tiny legal pro
cess in this city : and, also, that no forcible
re-.stance would he made to the arrest, by you,
of one of the rescuers of Branson, as we de
sired to test the validity of the enactment of
tiie body that met nt the Mission, called the
Kansas - Legislature, by an appeal to the Su
preme Court of the United States.
Vours respectfully,
[**'■‘“l] .. |(. Law.
S. J. Jones. Ksq., Present.
This reply is characteristic of the l'rcesoil
party, and displays at once their treachery
and their contempt for law and order. The
same day Jones sent them another note, in
■ quiriug whether they did nut acknowledge him
as the Sheriff of Douglas county, and wheth
er they recognized the Territorial laws and
j would aid him in carrying them into effect. To
which, says the correspondent of the Times,
j (lie answer would probably be returned that
; they did not recognize his right to catechise
’ them !
Alter these manifestations —after this viola
tion of pledges and exhibition of treasonable
purposes -it ought to be practically proved
’ that hemp also is a moral agent of some- power,
i and that Sharp's rifles arc no protection to
traitors and law-breakers in this country. <

The night after Mr. Toombs’ address ou
slavery in Boston, the Massachusetts Anti
slavery Society held a meeting in the same
city and adopted the following resolution :
Resolved, That iu the invitation extended,
by a professedly anti-slavery committee, to
that brazen and shameless advocate of man
stealing, Robert Toombs, ol Georgia, to conic
to Boston to defend the nefarious practices of
the South, after liis insulting boasts that lie
would yet marshal liis slaves around tlie base
of Bunker Hill monument, and defy Massa
chusetts U> liberate oneof them; and in liis dis
reputable appearance last evening, in the Tre
inont Temple, boldly doing his worst against
the sacred rights of man, and to defend “the
sum of all villanics,” the world is presented
with the climax of effrontery, on the one hand,
and of gratuitous folly on the other; audit,
clearly indicates how low is the moral condi
tion of the metropolis of the commonwealth
respecting the most revolting system of op
pression know n in the annals of time.
Mr. Toombs reasoned calmly ami logically I
with these fanatics, ami otnloavored by every
word ami sentiment to restore good feeling
and courteous relations between the two sec
tions. The above resolution attests bow this
spirit was met and appreciated, and it should
■ admonish our Senator that in forgetting the
dignity of liis State* and going to defend her
institutions before a tribunal which had no
right to arraign them, he has hut “cast pearls
before swine” and incurred for himself aboli
tion abuse and villificution only.
It is hardly necessary to add that the same
meeting passed a resolution favoring a disso
lution of the Union, and abused Southern re
ligion and morality without stint.

Russia and American Enterprise.
A correspondent now in St. Petersburg
writes as follows with respect to the opportu
nities for American enterprise in Russia:
There is in this country a wide field open
tor enterprising American merchants and me
chanics. The Russians tire getting sick of the
English and French monopolies, and are anx
ious to cultivate, trade with the United States.
Englishmen have done nearly all heretofore,
Mr. Wiliams’ being the only ‘American manu
facturing establishment in the country, and
Mr. Hopes, ol Boston, the only merchant. \t
a dinner party, the other dav,‘ at which there
were a number of influential gentlemen, I was
told, by one too who knows well the feelitms id’
the govetmucut, that it tin American company
would locate an American cotton ( raw cotton)
house in Russia, extensive nndexelitsive priv
ileges could be obtained. There is not a, sin
gle cotton house in the country, though there
is a large consumption of the article hy the
manufacturing establishments. All inul and
does come from England. There is nm,ues
tionably a wide door open here for a splendid
fortune in the sale of raw cotton, ami this J
get from the very best authority.
Shall tier, the telegraph man', has been here
as head of a company for the purpose of nego
tiating with the government for the purchase
of a large iron establishment, and if they can
succeed a large fortune will he made These
things arc well worthy the serious considera
tion of our enterprising merchants and me
chanics. Now is the time to strike, before I!us
siuagain gets mixed up with the English and
French people.
The only interest 1 fed in this matter, is
that 1 believe that American energy and en
terprise can do more to change the’ face and
condition of this country than any other upon
the face ot the globe. 1 his is a country of
great internal resources, audall it lacks
energetic spirits to bring it out.
