Newspaper Page TextCOLUMBUS: Friday Morning, February ‘l l. t *'>*>• LARGEST CITY CUICUIATIOI Alabama Legislation. We find in the Montgomery Advertiser ol Tuesday a complete list of the Acts nud Joint Resolutions passed by the (legislature of Ala bama at its Into session. They number 379 in all. Most of the acts of general importance we hate alrcudy noticed. We find that the joint resolutions providing lor a Btatc < ’(inven tion to amend the Constitution passed botli Houses. An act was passed to re-district the Htate for the election of Senators, and to ap portion Representatives among the several counties, according to the lute State census; also an act “to render more efficient the sys tem of free public schools in the State of Ala- ( bniua.” The bill to make a loan to the Ala bama and Mississippi Railroad company did not pass both Houses over the Governor s veto, as we erroneously stated the other day. We have already mentioned all the acts extending i State aid to railroads that were passed. Acts were passed to incorporate the following rail road companies: the Clayton branch of the Mobile and Girard Railroad, the Y\ inchcster | and Alabama Railroad, the Florida and Ala bama Union Railroad, to consolidate the stocks of the Atlanta and LaGrangc Railroad compa ny and the West Point and Tennessee River Railroad company ; also, an act to incorporate the Selma and Tuskuloosa Telegraph company. We count just one hundred divorces granted by this Legislature! This, wc think, is a had showing for Leap year, and will prove an im pediment to the full exercise of ladies’ bissex tile privileges in Alabama. A large number of the acts passed were vetoed by the Govern or, hut again passed, as the constitution of Alabama provides, by the two Houses. On the whole, this Legislature lias done mere than any other ever held in Alabama to foster in ternal improvement; and although disappoint ed sections may complain, and those opposed to State aid on principle may agitate against the policy, we believe that our neighboring Htftte has, by her limited loans to railroad companies, inaugurated a system that cannot fail to advance her prosperity and increase her wealth and resources. The propositions to extend aid to emigrants to Kansas, and to counteract tho fanatical leg islation of Massachusetts and Vermont, failed, nr were not pressed to a vote. ♦ Senator Toombs publishes a note in the Washington Union, wherein he denies the truth of the report that the Boston Lecture Committee appropriated the SIOO, which he refused to receive, to a society for aiding fu gitive slaves to escape to Kansas. He shows that it was given to a German Emigrant Aid Society. Gon. Sam Houston. It. was telegraphed tho other day that this gentleman had written a lettev to Gen. Fierce informing him that he could not be induced to remain in official station at Washington. The mail brings ns the letter, which, it appears, was written in the spring of 1858, before (leu. Fierce lind formed his Cabinet, and was in tended to offer some suggestions as to his course. The letter itself was a pretty good one, so far as its sentiments were concerned, but perhaps rather officious. Some of the Washington news-manufacturers having allud ed to and misrepresented it, Gen. Houston has thought proper to publish it; and that is the whole upshot of the matter. There is a report, however, that tho old General intends to construe the action of tho late Legislature of Texas as an invitation to him to resign, and will resign his seat in the Senate accordingly. National American Council. We find in some of ouryostorday’s exchanges telegraphic reports of some of the preliminary proceedings of the Know Nothing National Council, which met on Monday at Philadel phia. It is reported thatannttempt was made to exclude the Louisiana Catholic delegates, on account of their religion, but it failed— yeas 50, nays CO. There is another report that the set of delegates from Pennsylvania favor ing the repeal of the tilth section of the plat form of 1855 wore admitted in preference to those friendly to that section, and that this decision caused hitter feeling among the South ern delegates. The 12th section is the slave ry plank. The Steamship Pacific. The public apprehension of the loss of this j vessel has been quickened bv Ihe opinion said to have been expressed by some of the passen gers of the Persia, that the latter stcamercould not have withstood the collisions with the ice which she encountered hud not hcrliull been of iron. A report is given in our telegraphic dis patches, however, that the Pacific had put hack into a British port. This is doubted by the telegraphic reporters; but the Columbia Times has the report in a more explicit form, given in so circumstantial a manner as appa rently to strengthen the probability of its cor rectness. The editor of the Baltimore Patriot telegraphs to the Times (19th inst.) that Mr. Collins had received a telegraphic dispatch from Halifax, containing the gratifying infer- > mation that a private letter had been received j at the latter place, per Canada, from Liver- j pool, stating, that in consequence of the sever ity of the weather, the Pacific had put into the river Shannon, on her passage down the En glish Channel, and is, therefore, doubtless in safety. The Whigs of New Hampshire, in StaleCon veution assembled, have nominated Icliabod Godwin as their candidate for Govornor. It is evident thnt Icliabod lias only been chosen to lead a “forlorn hope,” and that liis poll will not be long enough to reach the persimmons by a great number of tallys. Still, if he has what Senator Sumner denominates “ back bone,” he may somewhat break into the ar rangements of the great parties. We will re port further of what happened to Icliabod, after the election. Flour sold at Wheeling on Saturday last at $6 50 per barrel. A few months ago it sold there at $9 50 to $lO. Kansas Affairs. All the recent accounts from Kansas suund like the premonitory token of a mighty storm. Both parties wove arming and collecting all the munitions of war. Recruits, arms and money were reaching the Freosoilcrs troiu the Northern and Western States, and the pr<>- slnvery men were calling on the gallant Mis sourians for aid. Hundreds of rifles, a few cnnnoii, and extensive supplies of ammunition have horn already procured by the Freosoilcrs at Lawrence, Lecompton, and other places, and they manifest every determination to trample the laws of the Territory under foot and to proceed with the organization of their revolutionary government. Not only does the proclamation of tho President show that the j Federal Government is tiwiirc ol the imminent danger ol a conflict, but Gov. Shannon's lmsty departure from Washington for his post seems to alford additional evidence that the issue is soon to be made. It is reported that he had instructions to travel night and day and to lose no time in reaching Leavenworth. At that , and other stations on the confines of Kansas, the Government has about 800 troops, and the ; rumor is that the Governor Ims authority to j command their services. Wc are glad to hear ! that among them is a company recruited in j South Carolina. ♦ Persia, Great Britain and India. The telegraph announces a “speck ol'war ’ between (treat Britain and Persia, and an offer by Turkey (a verr “sick man'’ yet) to become the physician and prescribe a healing balm in other words, to act ns mediator. This af fair, we believe, has not grown out of the cap ture of Herat by the Persians—at least not ostensibly—but arose from a demand by Mr. Murray, the British ambassador, that Persia should receive an English consul at Teheran, and a refusal and opposition on the part of Persia so marked that tue English envoy has demanded an explanation ami satisfaction.— lie threatens to sustain one Mirza as the Brit ish consul at Teheran by a naval demonstra tion of his government, unless his demands are complied with. It will also bo seen by a telegraphic streak, that tho British Government has resolved to take under its management the territory of an other Indian principality, and to pension off its king on a salary of $500,000! Is that fili bustering? or would it be so, if practised by tlio United States or Russia? — A Municipal Muss. The city of Montgomery, Ala., is in a pre dicament, and no opening for an escape from it, with unscathed honor and a whole corporation, lias yet been discovered. As well as we un derstand the nature of the case, these arc the facts: The Legislature, a few days before its adjournment, passed an actiniposing such res trictions upon the corporate authorities as to prevent their levying a sufficient tax to meet current expenses and accruing obligations.— The law, it is said, was hurriedly gotten up and passed, and no time for its repeal oramend mentwasallowed. The Council petitioned the Governor to kill it with the veto; but that functionary, fond though he is of excreisiug the “one man power,” chose to select his own occasions for using it, and declined to inter fere. The Council say that under the law they are so limited that they cannot redeem the bonds for tho State House, the Plank Roads, and other liabilities, and that repudia tion must bo the consequence. They have therefore resolved (with one exception) to re sign on Saturday; nml as there will then be no authority to order anew election to fill vacancies, the city will have no Council until the next regular election. It docs not clearly appear to ns how their resignation will either pay the bonds or lessen the expenses of the corporation (for wc believe that the Cuuncil men get no pay), and we are consequently un able to see Low they wiU help the matter by “throwing up.” But perhaps the mortifica tion of their position and the indignity offered them are insufferable, and they have therefore resolved to “retire in dignified despise.” We wish them a happy deliverance. New Kansas Movement. The following letter has been received from Kansas, addressed to the Governor of New York, which has been covered by a message from him to the Legislature of that state, now in session at Albany. Motion was made from the Republican side 1 of the House to refer the communication to a special committee, whereupon a warm debate i sprang up, and the result was not known at the \ last dates from Albany: !.\'vm:x( i; Cl rv, K. T. | January 1, 185(1. i To Hi .v /•’.reeflenty, (for. Clark— “ Sir: We have authentic information that an overwhelming force of the citizens of Mis souri are organizing upon our holder, amply supplied with artillery, for the avowed pur pose of invading our Territory, demolishing our town, and butchering our free State citi zens. V\ e hope to ho able to hold out until assistance can reach us. We respectfully re quest, on behalf of the citizens of Kansas, that such steps may he taken by the people of the States as humanity suggests, to prevent the successful carrying out of so iulunnaii an out • cage. “J. 11. Lam,, “ Chairman of flic Ex. Coin, of K. T. “I’. Roiiinson, “Governor Elect of Kansas. A Sharp Judge. The Paris correspondent of the New York Times says: A few days ago a scandalous affair was to be tried before tho Court of Assizes of the Yonne. Wken Court co veiled, it was found that all the ladies of the locality were in at tendance. On seeing all these toilets the Pres ident said : “The persons that are in Court do not know, perhaps, the nature of the suit which is going to commence; Ibegall honest women torctire.” Not a soul moved. “Sergeant,” said the President, “now that all the ho cst wo nen have left, turn out the rest!” The acting Governor of New Mexico, in his message to the Legislature, states the popula tion ot the Territory to be upwards ol’ sixtv one thousand. - A St. Louis paper, advocating the purchase of a steam fire engine, says that “it won’t drink whiskey or throw briek-hats.” GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. The Main Trunk Bill Reconsidered !! Cot of tin* Savannah Journal. Tuesday, Feb. lb. Ilm -1: or Kkprkbbntativks.— The House assembled this morning at the regular hour. Mr. Jones, of Muscogee, moved to reconsid er the rejection of the bill to incorporate the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad Company, and sup ported the proposition by a lucid and argu mentative address. Mr. Phillips opposed the reconsideration unless lie could be assured by the friends ot tho measure that tlie bill would be again re ferred to the joint committee, by whom it, was reported, in order that changes might be made, conformable to his views of correct policy.— He declared that lie did not led any antago nism to tlie measure relative to the building up ol’ Brunswick; that this for years lias been with Irina cherished policy, and all lie desired uoiv to <l<> was that tlie people ol the different sections of the .State might fie placed upon an equal basis, &c. Mr. Lawton replied, and in true manly style, compatible with his frankness, and superior intellect. Mr. Johnson, of Cass, delivered a bricl speech in which lie declared that whilst lie did nut regard the section of the State from whence be comes under any peculiar obliga tions, as a section, to that portion of Georgia, to be more immediately benefited by the Rail Road under consideration, for the Western and ■ Atlantic Rail Road was constructed to subserve the interests of the whole State, and not that of Cherokee Georgia alone—lie hud voted for this bill, upon the question of its passage, as a Georgian, and a Southern man, and that he should support its reconsideration for the same reasons. The remarks of Mr. Terhuue, were not lengthy but appropriate and impressive.. He referred to the struggle endured by the friends of the Western and Atlantic Railroad; the sneers with which they were taunted when they suggested ultimate profits to the State as a consequence of its construction, and direct ed Legislators to the last report of the Super intendent as a reply to the incredulous oppo nents <d‘ tiiat great enterprise, lie alluded forcibly and clearly to the important commer cial interests which would be subserved by the building of the Atlantic and Gull Railroad. Messrs. Harris, of Fulton, and Millcdge, also supported the reconsideration and intima ted clearly their interest us Georgians in the final passage of the bill. The motion prevail ed—yeas 74, nays 53. The bill proposing to pay the Corporators of tho Union Branch Railroad, damages to the amount of several thousand dollars, which they allege they have sustained by virtue of a subsequent grant of their franchises to the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad compa ny, was put upon its passage, and lost by a vote of 9 yeas to 98 nays. No other business of importance has been disposed of to-day. It is now the prevailing opinion that the 29th of this month will close the present session of the General Assembly. In thi: Senate, a motion was made to recon sider the action of the Senate in passing the bill for the sale of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, upon which Messrs. Spalding, Buch anan, McMillan, Dabney, Hardeman and Wingfield spoke. The motion to reconsider was lost by eleven majority. Tlie committee on the State of the Republic reported a bill to-day, to authorize the Gov ernor to call a Convention of the people of Georgia upon the happening of the contingen cies contemplated in tlie Georgia Platform of 1850. A Bank in Hamilton, Harris county, was chartered in tlie Senate, to be called the Bank of Hamilton, and anew county to be called Colquitt, was created out of the Territory of Thomas and Lowndes. This bill lias passed both houses. Nothing else of interest. Additional by the Canada. Halifax, Feb. 18th.—It is rumored that Turkey lias offered to mediate between Great Britain and Persia, for the adjustment of their differences. In the House of Lords, Earl Derby regret ted that the Queen’s late’ speech, at the open ing of Parliament, contained no conciliatory paragraph in relation to America, and espe cially in regard to the enlistment of soldiers in the United States. Lord Clarendon ex plained, that the correspondence between the Ministers of tlie two governments was still going on, and that the difficulty was susceptible of a peaceful solution. He added that no slight was intended in not mentioning American affairs in the Queen’s speech. In India, Great Britain, it is said, is about to seize upon the Kingdom of Ouda, allowing the King a pension of half a million of dollars. It is reported that the Pacific is safe. The report rests upon the authority of letters received by a firm in Halifax, dated Liverpool, I the 28th. Doubtful. ♦ . Prom Washington. Washington, Feb. 18. lathe Senate, the doings of the late Naval Hoard were discussed. Also, the message ol’ Hie President on Kansas affairs, enclosing the correspondence of the Territorial officials, in cluding the letter of instructions to Colonel . .Sumner, U, S. A., to hold himself in readiness to respond to (he requisition of Governor Shannon. The President’s course was sus tained by Senator Toucey and opposed by Wil son. In the House a resolution was adopted, re questing the President to transmit to that body all laws passed by the assembly ol’ Kansas, and all executive proceedings and correspon dence of the Governor of the Territory. A bill was introduced to enable the people of Oregon Territory to form a State Govern ment preliminary to their admission into the : Union. Also a hill to re-establish the boun daries ol’ Kansas, and to prohibit slavery there : and in Nebraska. Both bills were referred to the (Freesoil) Committee on Territories. Washington, Feb. 19. Nothing important was done in either House to-day. Tlio Senate was in executive session, and confirmed the appointment of Shannon ns - Governor of Kansas. — Tho Pacific. New York, Feb. 19. The propeller Arctic, which went in search of the Pacific, arrived at Halifax yesterday, without seeing onytliiugof the missing steamer. The Canadians have propounded a scheme for the annexation of all tlio territory, now under lease to the Hudson Day Company, to Canada. They also wish to acquire the Rus sian possessions in North America. The lease of tho lludsoußay Company expires in 1859, and may, perhaps, not be renewed, as the treaty of neutrality which that Company has made with the Russian Cos. is received with extreme discontent in England. It is contend ed that Canada can furnish men and means enough to conquer the Russian Possessions with the aid of the British fiectin the Pacific. Should the war continue, it is very likely that our neighbor North of the Lakes will under take to expel tlio Russians from the continent. > Failure of the Lower California Filibusters. The San Francisco papers contain an ac count ol the failure of the Filibustering Expe dition against Lower California, which sailed from that port recently in the bark Archibald Uracic, under command of Capt. Sherman, who claimed to hold a commission from Gen. Alva rez. Arriving off Cape St. Lucas, Capt. Sher man, fell in with the bark R. Adams, which ho chartered lor $3,000, and enlisted a portion of her men. Cruising off and on, they cap tured a Mexican schooner, with which they afterwards went within five miles of the an elioi'uge of La l’az. Capt. Sherman went ashore in his boat to see the Governor, and demand why the latter had not saluted him when ho came in the harbor. The Governor demanded bis papers, and finding them not satisfactory, arrested the Captain and three others, and put them in prison. The next day tlio Governor tired on tlie vessels, killing one man and wounding two others. The men learning that their commander was in prison ; became disheartened and took refuge undcr j the American ffng on board the R. A. Adams. ! The American Consul warned the Governor ; not to tiro into the American bark, xvhich the latter did not do. The Governor, however, required the Consul to haul down his Hag, in consequence of his interference in tlie matter. Tlie command ol'the Governor was complied with and Capt. Sherman and his friends ,ue still in prison waiting for advices l' l- * 1 ® M uxl ~ , co.

Sew*. — — —♦- ’ The Committees. The New York Herald says: Tlie anti-slavery element is the governing power of the House committees. The Speaker, for example, has framed the Committee on Elections in favor of Governor Recder, nolens volens, as tlie rightful delegate from Kansas; the Committee on Territories of the right stripe for the Wilmot proviso; the Committee on the District ot’ Columbia, quali fied at a moment’s notice to report a bill for abolition of slavery in said District; a Judici ary Committee itching for tlie repeal of the Fugitive Slave law, and so on to the end of the chapter. Thus organized, wc are prepared ci tlier lor a bill to repeal the Kansas-Nebraska law, or a bill to repeal the fugitive slave law - , or a bill to abolish slavery in tlie District of Columbia, as the first report from these stand ing committees, though we suspect that the Committee on Territories will open the ball according to the extremest “higher law” doc trine of that veteran abolitionjjapostle, father Joshua It. Ghidings. + Tho Public Lands. A report not yet published, prepared at the General Land Office, in compliance with a res olution of the House of Representatives, shows the amount of territory subject to the act of August, 1854, to graduate ami reduce the price of public lands to actual settlers and cultiva tors: Os the first class, one dollar an acre, there are 18,708,759 acres ; second class, seventy five cents an acre, 15,054,148; third class, fifty cents an acre, 11,540,920; fourth class, twenty-five cents an acre, 0,485,827; fifth class, twelve and a half cents an aci - e, 25,114,- 353 acres. This land is divided amongst tlie following States:—Ohio, 70,495: Indiana, 458,700; Il linois, 1,384,510 ; Wisconsin, 1,906,757 ; Michigan, 8,785,990; lowa, 595,480 jMissouri, 13,850,020; Arkansas, 14,212,610; Louisiana, 7,806,340; Mississippi, 7,602,043; Alabama, 14,089,502 ; Florida, 6,848,560; making in all 77,561,007 acres. It appears from a statement prepared at the State Department, giving the number of Amer ican seamen registered and enrolled in the United States for the last sixteen years, that forthe year ending October, 1840, there were 8,091, of which 730 were naturalized; and for that ending October Ist, 1855, 9,986, including 300 naturalized persons. A Slave Case in the Supreme Court. An important slave case from Missouri is now before the United States Supreme Court. The points particularly in issue arc, first, the right of citizens of slaveholding - States to carry their slaves into non-slavclioldiug States for a temporary sojourn there, without the loss ol’ their right of property in such slaves; and, next, the constitutionality ol’ the Missouri compromise, as involved in the question of the right of Congress to legislate with reference to slavery in the United States territories. The Union says that the lion. Ilcvcrdy Johnson, of Maryland, one of the Counsel engaged in the case, spoke at great length on Wednesday, and with more than his accustomed ability, liis masterly and elaborate argument against the constitutionality of the Missouri Compromise was listened to with the most profound atten tion. Serious Difficulty. Last night, a difficulty occurred between a student nf the College and one ol’ tlio City Mar shals, in which the former was struck down and carried to the guard house. He was res cued by the students in a body, who entered the guard house and bore him off. The mar shal was severely beaten, and several of the students hurt, though we believe not danger ously. We regret, for the sake of the good order of our city, that in such circumstances our police is so inefficient, In every community the su premacy of law should be upheld at every haz ard. The circumstances of the case should bo fully investigated, and even-handed justice meted out without fear or favor.— Columbia Carolinian. The Sharks Frozen. It is said by the oldest settlers that such severely cold weather lias never been experi enced in Florida until this winter. Captain ! Bostes Do Oca informs us that sharks have , boon frozen to death during the late cold spell, | in Charlotte Harbor. Suoh an event has not | transpired, to his knowledge, for the last thir i ty-five years.— Tampa Peninsular. “Hit Him Again.” The citizens of Eastport, Missouri, were so well pleased with the conduct of Mr. Rust, of Arkansas, in his “affair” with Greeley, of the Tribune, that, immediately on the receipt of the news that ho had cudgelled Horace, they procured and forwarded to Mr. Rust a gold medal. The medal bears this inscription: “Presented to Hon. A. Rust, M. C., from Ar kansas, by bis friends of Eastport, Missouri;” and on the reverse side Hit him again.” We learn, says the Chattanooga Advertiser, that the first train of cars passed over tlio Tennessee Bridge on Thursday night, tho loth, being completed lon days before tho set time in contract—and for each day the contractor will rceeivo S3OO, thus securing to him the snug little sum of S3OOO.
