COL U M BXJ S: TbnruH) Morning, February H< LARUEST CITY CIHCIIiATIO®- We would direct the attention of m- l.irly reudci'H lo the advertisement of Mosst*. mi- .v Rooney, offering their large mid fine tuck of ('arpeting ut cost. Mrs. Caroline Lee Hentz. much regret to hear ol’ the death of this talented and uuoompli.tfaed lady, lately a citi zen of Columbus. She died of Pneumonia, at ! Tallahassee, Florida. Mrs. 11 cut/ wus a wo man and an authoress of whom the South was justly proud. Though blessed with talents of a high order, site never forgot the appropriate tation and sphere of her sex, but, discarding the pretensions and follies of the “ strong minded women” of other localities, all her ac complishments and labors were devoted to the intellectual and moral improvcuiout of those immediately surrounding Iter, and to the men tal instruction as well us the entertainment of the thousands who delighted to read the pro- 1 duct ions of her pen. Her literary works will | live after her, ami their pure and refining spirit will still exorcise the wholesome inffu euce for which their estimable authoress was personally so distinguished. They have added 1 much to the measure of Southern female tal ent: and though the hurried productions of a I mind already deeply interested and tasked by other useful duties, they will long he regarded r.s highly creditable to American literature. Mrs. lleritz, we suppose, was about forty foe years of age, though in appearance much younger. She was in every sense a gifted and \ superior woman—in personal beauty aud i grace, in mental culture, and in every polite aud attractive accomplishment, she was con spicuous- exhibiting a union of graces and excellencies seldom combined in one person. She leaves, we believe, two sons and two daughters. Anew work by Mrs. Hentz has been an nounced as in progress through the press, by a Philadelphia publishing house. As her laxl production, it will ho eagerly sought and highly prized by her numerous friends and admirers. Only the Sun. The eastern mail, yesterday afternoon, brought us the Columbus Sun—“only this and nothing more.” Well, if we have to re ceive only one paper, we would as soon that that one should he our sprightly trans-Chat tnboocheo coteaiporary as any other. We read it, last evening, as we always do, with satisfaction. —Minitgomcry Moil. We thank our friends of the Mail for their compliment to our paper. The Sun is always hound to go through in due time, unless “Un cle Sam’s” arrangements prove a failure, for it vises as early and as regularly each morning as its great archetype in the east: but we must confess tlmt wc have our cloudy days, and these occur whenever the aforesaid Uncle Sam’s and Hooper’s Mails both fail us. Tracking a Murderer. We learn verbally, that a man named Win. Purge, a deserter from the United States army, who formerly lived in this city, was arrested on Tuesday last, in Troup county, by a Mis souri sheriff who followed him from that State. Purge is charged with having, with the uid of another man, still at large, commit ted a murder a short time since in Missouri. It is said that they waylaid and killed a man for his money, and buried him in the snow ; but the body being found, and suspicion at taching to these two men, the sheriff followed Purge from Missouri to this State, llis pur suit and capture of the prisoner shows much shrewdness and perseverance. Purge travel led by land, sometimes by railroad, sometimes by stage ami other vehioles, and sometimes on foot --registering a different name utmost of the hotels where he Shipped. He carried about Ids person a small box, aud wore a cap taken from the murdered man; and by tlieso chiefly the sheriff’ was enabled to identify him and keep his track. Cutting Purge’s varied registered names from the books, he was ena bled to compare the handwriting at places along Ids route, and thus to assure himself that he was on the l ight track. Following up the fugitive in this manner, he reached La (•range only one day behind him, arrested him, as above stated, near that place, and immedi ately started back for Missouri with Ids pris oner in charge. ♦ Legislative News. The action of our Legislature on Monday, reported in another column, will he found of unusual interest. The defeat of the •• Main Trunk Hallway” bill in the House, and the passage by the Senate of the bill to sell three fourths of the stock of the Western and At lantic I!>ailron<l, arc proceedings of much im portance. We understand that the session will pretty surely he prolonged until the end of , this week at least ; and we have a hope—very i faint, we must cm: that something may j yet be done for internal Improvement in j Southern (Georgia. Irish Settlement of Canada. A project lias lately been started to induce as many Irish resident* in Uio United States as possible to emigrate to Canada and organize a colony there. The Irish Emigrant \id So cieties called a cum ration to meet at Buffalo, N. \., on the I'ltli inst., to consider this pro- I position. A part of it* proceedings have I reached us, of which we copy the .substance: ; The report of the committee on finance sta ted that there are forty-eight millions of dol lars in the savings banks throughout the Uni ted States belonging to the Irish population. The finance committee also reported in favor of tho formation of a joint stock company for the purpose of purchasing lands west of Cana da, and selling tho same to Irish settlers and emigrants for not more than ten per cent on the first cost of tho lauds. Adopted. The committee on organization recommend ed the establishment of agencies at Heston, New York, Pittsburg, Buffalo, Chicago, St! Louis, and such places in Canada as the dele gates designate, for the purpose of giving in- ! formation and assistance to emigrants. Ad opted. A committee of five was appointed to pre pare an address to the Komau Catholic Clergy and laity of the United State* and Canada. Pur tic Daily Sun. COLUMBUS liACE.S.

GEOIIGIA LEGISLATURE. i 1 o: reNjmudcnee of the Savannah Journal. Monday, Feb. I*. Senate.* —The Senate continued to perfect the bill for the Incorporation of the Western uml Atlantic Railroad Company during the whole of to-day. When they had goue through with tlie whole bill, several additional sections were agreed to, and the prospect was that many more amendments would Be offered. Mr. Fambro, the author of the bill, moved the pre vious ipie.stion, which having been seconded, the main question was ordered to he put, atul was also decided in tlie affirmative; ami the report of the t Committee, ns amended, was agreed to; and when the bill was about to be put on its passage, Mr. j’ltchhrmn raised the point whether he could bo allowed to debate the bill, which the Chair decided in the affir mative : whereupon an appeal was taken from the decision of the Clmir, but. tlie decision was sustained. Mr. Buchanan then spoke at some consider able length, in opposition to the bill—arguing that the Hoad was now beginning to pay, and he thought the policy wrong to sell it at such a time. When he had concluded, Mr. Well born of Whitiield, again moved the previous , question, which was seconded, and the vote was taken on the passage of tlie bill, which resulted in its passage by nine majority—the vote standing 58 in favor, and II against. The Atlantic and Gulf Bail lload hill was defeated in the House to-day hy eleven majori ty, but I feel assured that it will he reconsid ered to-morrow. Nothing else of interest. IforsE or Uepbesknt.xtivr.s.—An effort to reconsider the bill to move flit’ Penitentiary to the Stone Mountain was made to-day, hut failed hy a large majority. The bill to incorporate tlie Atlantic and Gulf lluilroad Company, was taken up as the spe cial order and lost by a vote of 5b yeas, to bT nays. The joint committee on tlie Western and Atlantic Kailroad presented their report, which was read, and then withdrawn, in order that the committee might enlarge the same by em bracing therein a report relative to the expe diency of giving a preference lo Way-freights over through freights. The response of Muj. Cooopcr to said committee as well us that of Gov. Johnson, were read. Nothing further of interest has been done in this branch of the General Assembly to-day. *- foreign Items. We find these items of news in some tele graphic reports of the Canada’s intelligence, later than those wo published yesterday ; lee was breaking up in the Baltic, so that navigation had been resumed. Accounts from the Crimea state that Gort schukoff bad turned over the command of the Kussian army to Gen. Luders. On the Oth of January the Russians made uulexpeditiou across the iec to attack Kartell, but finding the allies on the* alert- they with drew. ♦ Tito Legislature of Alabama, (amongits very wisest nets,) appropriated $2,500 annually, for two years, to the Btate Agricultural Socie ty, to aid it in getting up its annual Fairs, the first of which, held last November at Mont gomery. was so auspicious a beginning. - Exciting News from Austin. We learn from a friend, who arrived directly through from Austin this morning, that at the moment he left, that city was in astute of the highest excitement which lmd been known there, or, indeed, in any part of the State, for many years. It had been caused by a most audacious attempt to outrage, or at least to override the law, by parties charged with hav ing been concerned in the burning down of the Auditor’s office—reports of which deed our readers will recollect having read a short time - since. Hynes, who was some time ago arrested on the clmVgo of having actually committed the offense, offered to turn State's evidence, and In liis subsequent revelations implicated Blanken ship and Lewis as parties to the deed The Sheriff of Austin thereupon attempted to arrest the former at Waco, but was prevented by the citizens ot that place ; who, however, pledged themselves he should make his appearance in Austin at the appointed time, to answer the charge. Lewis’ appearance was in like man lier guaranteed. I On Sunday evening last accordingly, Mon | day having been fixed as the day of examina tion, Lewis rode into town accompanied by about twenty of bis friends, all very heavily armed with double bairelled guns, revolvers and bowie knives. On the following morning, just before the stage left Austin for (ialvcston, Blankenship also came into the capital, in like manner escorted by some thirty of his friends similarly armed, and publicly declaring that all the Sheriffs in Texas could not arrest him, although they professed themselves willing that lie should undergo an examination before a magistrate. It is supposed that a similar body of men has never before been seen so heavily armed ns these were. Very great excitement was caused by their high-handed attempts to override the law and the authorities, tho whole city feeling outraged and indignant at them. Numbers of the oldest, most respectable and influential inhabitants had been so thoroughly aroused, as to be arm ing to aid in carrying the law into effect, if they should be needed. The Sheriff himself was subpoenaing a posse of fifty men and arm ing them, to enable him to arrest Blankenship, when the stage left. It was understood that he was determined and would be able to effect this, and that he had further resolved on not allowing any of the armed men accompanying tho accused to attend in the" Court-house, un less they should be needed as witnesses. There was no telling, however, how the affair would end.— Picm/vnt. i TELEGRAPHIC. —- Nkw Orleans, Feb. 20.

This gentleman, well kuowu in New ork ami elsewhere, who has made two visits to Russia, traveled over much of the country, spending some eighteen months there, has written a communication to the N. V. Herald in reply to strictures by the London Times, on some remarks previously made by him. We extract the fallowing, which, if reliablo, gives a somewhat different view of the power, dispo sition, commerce, resources, manners and cus toms of Russia, fromthatentertained by many. He says j While in Russia, during the past two years, 1 have read hundreds of misrepresentations in the F.uglish papers about the war and that country. Many of them doubtless have been made with a knowledge of the facts to tlie con trary, and perhaps many through ignorance. It is difficult to get an Englishman to believe that there is truth or power in any other pco ’ [ile hut their own. This ignorance and mean ness is readily seen by the foreigner when lie enters that country. Intelligent people have i often asked me, in England, if we had railroads, telegraphs, &c., in America. These insults j are not always the result of ignorance. They are put forth to make the American feel that his country is unknown to fame. Courtesy, particularly among officials, is a rare quality. In this respect the English will doubtless be greatly benefitted by the example of their nearest ally. The want of respect and decen cy towards Americans is the cause of their hur rying out of England into France, where they are always treated with the most gratifying consideration. With the government of Russia, as Ameri cans, we have nothing to do, except to be obe dient to the laws when we arc there. As neu trals we certainly have a right to form an opin ion as to tlie justness of the war, and in doing so we cannot see how England can expect the favor of Heaven iu the end. It is from mer cenary motives and from apprehension for tlie safety of her Indian possessions that she enters this mighty conflict. An imaginary Russian invasion of India makes England tremble. Her churches are filled with prayers for the cause of Christ and the success of her army in the sustenation of Moliumetlanism I Was hypocrisy ever so apparent ? She cannot serve two mas ters. Flic must he for God or the devil. The latter seems to be her choice. Asa ('Jiristian nation, how is it possible for us to sympathise with such hypocrisy ? We have no intrinsic interest in the success ol‘ Russia. Our trade with England is, perhaps, fully SIOD.OOO.OOD. With Russia it has but slightly exceeded $200,- 000. Our commerce with the latter is so very small that any one can sec that the American people, in tlicir almost unanimous sympathy with Russia, are not influenced hy pecuniary or political considerations. Throughout Russia there is butene opinion, aud that is, everything for defense. There arc no internal divisions there; but on the contrary, the whole nation is united in a firm and resolute determination to shod the last drop of blow! for the cause of God. Feuds among the members ol‘ the impcriulfainily arc never heard of. English uml French writers may indite letters for the press in London or Paris, dating them from Ft. Petersburg, aud [Hitting forth the grossest misrepresentations as to the social relations of the imperial fami ly ; but this temporary inflation of public con fidence will avail nothing in the end. The Imperial family is the most remarkable on earth for devoted affection towards each other. They meet daily, and mingle their prayers for their country, and the triumph of the cause of God in the unholy war waged against their church. The people assemble at all hours in the open churches and unite in solemn prayer for the same purpose. When they lie down at night, rise in the morning, and even iu the pursuit of their daily avocations, they never j forget to offer up their prayers for their F.nipe 1 ror aud their God. Notwithstanding this j seeming fanaticism, there exists in Russia the j most liberal religious toleration. All denom inations arc found there—Greek, Roman Cath olic, Armenian, Lutheran, Mohomedan, Pres byterian, and even the orthodox Church of England, in which latter church the pastor never fails to publicly pray for “her Majesty the Queen of England, kc., and that she may triumph over all her enemies.” Thus in this wonderfully despotic country, there is more religious toleration than would be submitted to in England, if wc judge from tho bad temper of the London press in reference to my pub lished opinions ou Russia. The whole nation is beginning to arouse it self; although the Hussions are slow in action, yet their determination endures to the end.— Another two years will find the whole country well prepared for war. No one there regards the present state of things other than in the light of preparation for war. Every where the energy of the people is put forth in the steps necessary for defense. At remote distances in the interior the soldiers arc kept continual ly at drill, and the instruments of war arc being multiplied with fearful rapidity. The entire Baltic coast is lined with batteries, and new cannons are being mounted by thousands, and new lines of defense constantly raised.— Wherever you go theory of defense is heard, end its nppliauccs are seen. I have never met a Russian that was unwilling to tight for his God and his Emperor. 1 never heard of any resistance to his calls for men. On this sub ject 1 made diligent enquiries. The effect of all this on commerce has been a sad thing to the merchants. Itbears heavier upon the English and German merchants than upon the Russian. The cessation of com merce has caused the merchants in Russia to direct their energies and means to other pur suits, and lienee the great increase of manu factories. Tlio cotton mills are running nmlit and day. Progress in the arts is to be seen everywhere. All kinds of fabrics, such as silks, cottons, linens, laces, cloths, &c., are produced in great quantities. The London Times may sneer at Russian fabrics, but in time it will find that importation from England will for the future never be as great as it has hitherto been. The English Government are grossly ignorant as to the extent of manufac turing industry in Russia. They forbid the exportation ot rolled iron to the Continent, expecting thereby to injure Russia, while in tact Russia has been exporting rolled iron to Luglaud, and has now on hand thousands of tons awaiting the conclusion of peace for ship ment. All sixes of plate iron are made there. Iron plates live by eight feet and copper six by fifteen, arc made iu large quantities. The blockade and non-shipment of iron do not aftect the iron men of Russia, because their sales arc made in advance for years, and the stock on hand is regularly paid for as fast as it is made. In fact the iron business is much larger than ever. The foreign trade is the same. Ihe home consumption has been enor mouslv increase.) The yield forthe past year is supposed to be at least, in pig iron, 281,001 tons, and of bar iron, 201,000 tons. The maximum yield heretofore has been about, iff pig iron, 210,852 tons, and of bar iron, 152,- 215 tons. I have the prices of different years, and 1 find no iucrease over the times ol peace. The yield of precious metals is very favora ble. That of silver will not be very great, perhaps no more than one and a half millions of roubles. I’lutiua mines are producing about the same asjforinct years. The copper mines are yielding about 4,845,700 silver roubles.— And as to the gold mines, they are doing better than ever. The income for the past year will be about 20,000,000 roubles, the maximum heretofore being, in 1848, 22,725,000 roubles. The agricultural districts do not seem to be affected by the war. The crops of wheat, rye, barley, flax, hemp, kv., appear tobo about the same as in former years. I saw no waste lichl nor any want of tillers. In the Smolensk and Saratoff governments most corn is raised, and my observations in the former led me to believe there was no likelihood of a diminution of crops. As to labor, there is plenty of it all over the empire, and at tlie same time I may say that 1 saw no great suffering from pover ty. There is no starvation, and beggars arc less numerous than iu England, and in fact 1 have seen more beggars in Liverpool and Lon don in one week than 1 saw in my whole two years’ tour in Russia. Affairs in Ilayti. A correspondent of the N. York Journal of Commerce tit Cape Ifaytien writes on the 4tli tilt.: “ Every thing is iu confusion here and all business at a stand. The llaytiens have had two engagements with the Dominicans on the frontiers. In the division which accompanied the Emperor all the troops of the South refu sed to fight, and left him ; in consequence of 1 which he has had to abandon his march. lie was on his way hither ; but the latest intelli gence is that the army has advanced again to Ounaminthe, and that all tlie troops are being collected to continue the invasion. For a time it was thought that the Emperor had lost his sway, and rumor even spoke of his successor having been named at Port-au-l’rince; but this requires confirmation. Those who de serted or refused to fight have been shot some twenty miles from here. A number of officers (all who have been taken) and many of the common soldiers have been executed. The most vigorous measures tire in force here for the collection of troops. The people are caught up in every direction and put in prison until they are ready to be sent off.” Important Decision. At its present Session in this city tlie Su preme Court, in the case of the Macon & Wes tern It. R. Cos., vs. Melinda Wynn by her next friend, decided that in a ease where a collision occurs between a railroad train and a traveler on the highway, and both parlies are in fault, and the Plaintiff in the action can avoid the fault of tlie Defendant in the exercise of ordi nary care, and docs nut do so, the Plaintiff’ cannot recover. The decision reverses the judgment of the Court below. We give pub licity to the judgment iu this case, because it is of great practical importance to our numer ous Railroad Companies, and the public at large.— Macon .Vesgciit/cr. Land Warrants. The market still continues depressed, and, in the absence of orders from the West, prices must give way. Advices from New York re port tlie “market heavy,” and the dealers seeking this market to dispose of their surplus. Although we noticed quotations on yester day at Si,DO for 80 sand 100’s, and $1,02 for 120’s, yet upon inquiry we learn that no actual sales were made over 81,01 a 51,01.1 for 120’s.
