OOLTXMTUTS: Honda? Morning, February 45, J 5. L ARARAT CITY CIRCULATION. The 22d. The lirtli-<la> of Washington was commemo rated in this city by a parade <>t two ot the militnvv companies, who made quite an Im posing and creditable display- t olumhus can boast of as tine volunteer companies us any city in the South, and on this occasion their turn-out was unusually full and attractive. , The Columbus Guards shot at a target tor the . prize of a gold watch, which was won by pri vate McDougnld. At night there was tv ball in Temperance Mall, and the exercises and festivities of the day dosed witli gaiety and gallantly. UUlttP’b ATHENAEUM. Mr. W. 11. tlrisp, with his deservedly po pular company, has been performing to good audiences the past week in this city, with the distinguished Tragedienne, Miss Klixa Logan, as principal star. Saturday evening was set for Miss Logan s benefit, and so grent was the demand for seats, that many hail to go away unaccommodated. The company, We learn, have made un ac cession of several performers of talent to the corps, among them, Mr. Chanfrau, at'omme dian of much celebrity in the New York thea tres, and will continue their entertainments during this week. Miss Logan, we understand, having complet ed her engagements with Mr. Crisp’s compa ny, left yesterday morning, for New Orleans, to till existing engagements in that city and Memphis. - ♦ Three Elephants, followed by a crowd of ad miring youngsters, passed through our city yesterday, going west, to unite with Robinson A Eldred’s menagerie and circus. -♦ The receipts of cotton at New Orleans up to Wednesday evening, Feb. 20th, are 1,1101,840 bales. The receipts on that day were 12,815 bales. ♦ The steam propeller Arctic, which put into the port of Halifax without learning any thing about the Pacific, arrived under sail and in a disabled condition—probably the result of her conflict with the ice. ♦ The Louisiana Legislature unseated several at tiie Know Nothing representatives elect from Mew Orleans, on the ground that violence was uced at the ballot-boxes at pvecinots in their districts; and it has now, by a party vote, removed .Sheriff llufty, the Know Nothing candidate elected at the same time, for the entne cause. This latter proceeding lias caus ed great excitement in New Orleans, and may lead to disturbances. -♦ The Legislature, on Friday. The only account we have yet received of the proceedings on Friday, is the following brief communication by the Alilledgeville cor respondent of the Savannah Journal: *’ Nothing ol particular interest, has trans pired to-day.” The same correspondent writes thus clieer iugly of the prospects of the Main Trunk Rail way bill: Y on may confidently rely upon the passage of the Railroad hill through the Senate.” ——* llie instructions given by the Administra tion to Governor .Shannon and the conunau dere of troops on the borders of Kansas, are of especial importance at this time. We copy them in another column. It seems pretty clear from these documents that the Governor is authorized to call upon the military to aid him in putting down by force, if necessary, the revolutionary government which the freesoilcrs sie concocting, nfl.l to compel obedience to the laws at Lawrence and Topeka. We trust that the work may be done effectually this time, and that we shall hear no more of “‘treaties’’ with rebels, or compromises with outlaws and traitors. The New York papers report that Governor Shannon is authorized to forcibly dissolve and break up the revolutionary Legislature to assemble at Topeka on (lie 4th of March, and predict that there will then lie a eontlict be tween the Federal authorities and the Frce soilere Os course the fighting part of the prediction is all gammon. ♦ A bill is pending before Kentucky Legisla ture to provide for a tax upon the slave pro perty ot the State, lor the purpose ot’ eniplov mg un efficient patrol upon the Ohio river, for its whole length along the Northern boundary of Kentucky, to prevent the escape of slaves into Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Such a meas ure seems to be absolutely necessary, in view ot flic many slave stampedes across the river, aud no doubt the State would be a pecuniary gainer by its adoption. Rut the question arises, the escape of the slaves being attribu table to (lie persuasion and assistance of the people of Ohio and other- bordering States, ought those States, or ought Kentucky, to bear the expense of the patrol thus rendered neces sary ? We will be told that reprisals or taxes upon the commerce of one State by another are unconstitutional; and so they'doubtless are, according to the letter of tho Federal Con •titution. Rut the act of persuading and aid ing slaves to escape, and harboring them after they have so escaped, is equally unconstitu tional ; and Ohio laws declare a slave brought into that State by his master to be free. Shall the uon-shiveliolding States be allowed with impunity to violate the constitution and rob Southern men of their property, aud must the South always stand upon constitutional scru- ! pics while thus outraged and insulted ? What i do they gain by the Union if it not only fails to protect them from depredation, but abso lutely prevents them from protecting them r*elvoK v . IVe observe by tho last New Orleans papers that the upper Red, Ouachita and White riv ers are now at a navigable stage, and that steamers are bringing cotton front their ports. Ihe moderate weather has also let out the tioats on the I ennessee river, The arrivals from these rivers have materially helped to j make up the large receipts at New Orleans this i week. The New American Platform. We are informed by telegraph that on the 21st the National American t'ouncil, in ses sion at I’hibidolphia, adopted a now platform, “the substuiicc of which was foreshadowed in the Washington Organ of the 15th instant, as a substitute for the platform of List June.— For the purpose of learning the provisions and spirit of this new platform, wehave referred to., the Organ of that date, and find that it was adopted nt a meeting ot the “Chief t'ouneil of the American party for the District of Colum bia,” and recommended to the National and I State Councils. As we are not informed that it was adopted word for word by the National Council, but only that it formed “the sub stance” of the action of the Council at L’hila- j dolphin, we will now give the substance of the j platform published in the Organ, and will copy verbatim that adopted at Philadelphia when we receive it. Section Jst consistently repents the “ae- ] knowledginent of the Supreme being who rules 1 the universe.” and thanks Him for our national blessings. (The Council is evidently resolved to “take no step backward” from that position.) Sec. 2d. “ The perpetuation ol’ our Federal Union, as the palladium of our civil and reli gious liberties, and the only sure bulwark of American independence.” Sec. Bd. must rule Amer ica,!’ and native-born citizens in preference to naturalized fur all offices; but 4th, persons bora of American parents temporarily abroad not to be excluded. Sec. sth. No person, native or foreign, to be selected for political station, who recognises any allegiance or obligation of any description to any foreign prince, potentate or power, or who refuses to recognize the Federal and State constitutions (each within its sphere.) aw paramount to all Other law as rules of polit ical action. (Thereby intending to exclude those who own civil allegiance to the Pope, and the “higher law” fanatics.) Sec, lith. “ Tho unqualified recognition and maintenance of the reserved rights of the sev eral States, and the cultivation of harmony and fraternal good will, between the citizens of the several .States, and to this end, non interference by Congress with questions ap pertaining solely to tho individual States, and non-intervention by cacti State.” Sec. 7tli. “The recognition of the right of the native-born and naturalized citizens of the United States, permanently residing in any Territory thereof, to frame their constitution and laws, and to regulate their domestic aud social affairs in their own mode, subject only to the provisions of the Federal < ‘onstitutiou, with the right of admission into the Union whenever they have the requisite population for one representative in Lon gross. Provided always, that none but those who are citizens of the United States, under tho constitution and laws thereof, and who have a fixed residence in any such Territory, ought to participate in the formation of the constitution, or in the enactment of laws for said Territory or State.” (This is “squatter sovereignty,” unadultera ted, and a joint rebuke of foreign voters sent on by “emigrant aid socioties, ’< and “border ruffians.”) Sec. Bth. The States to be prohibited from allowing loreign-bovn persons to vote or hold office, unless they have been naturalized ac cording to the laws of the United States. Sec. fith. Twenty-one years residence as a qualification to foreigners; lmt no interference with vested rights. See. 10th. “Opposition to any union between Church and State; no interference with reli gious faith, or worship, and no test oaths for office, except those indicated in the sth section of this platform.” See. II th. “‘Free and thorough investigation into any and all alleged abuses of public 1 unctiouaries, and a strict economy in public expenditures. ” Sec. 12th “Opposition to the reckless and unwise policy ot the present administration in the general management of our national at tairs, and more especially as shown in remov ing “Americans,” (by designation) and con servatives in principle, from office, and placing foreigners and altruists in their places; as shown in a truckling subserviency to thestron ger, and nu insolent and cowardly bravado to wards to tlio weaker powers: as shown in re opening sectional agitation, by tho repeal of the Missouri ( ompromise : ns shown in grant ing to unnaturalized foreigners the right of suff rage in Kansas and Nebraska ; as shown in its vascillating course oh the Kansas and Ne braska question: as shown in tlio removal of Judge llronson from the Collector-hip of N. York upon false and untenable grounds; a shown in 11 hi corruptions which pervade some of the departments of the government; as shown in disgracing meritorious naval officers through prejudice and caprice ; and as shown in tiie blundering mismanagement of our for eign relations.” Sec. 14th “Therefore to remedy existing evils, and prevent the disastrous consequences otherwise resulting therefrom, wo would build up the “American Party” upon the princi ples herein before stated, eschewing all sec tional questions, and uniting upon thosepurelv national, and admitting into said party all American citizens, (referred to in the :’,d.‘ tth. and sth sections,) who openly avow the princi ples and opinions heretofore expressed, and who will subscribe their names to this platform Provided, nevertheless, that a majority of those members present at the meeting of a local couiuml where an applicant applies for mem bership in the American party may, for any reason by them deemed sufficient, donv admis sion to such applicant.” seem loth. “A lice and open discussion of all political principles embraced in our platform.” 1 It is worthy of remark, that in the same number of tlio Organ containing this platform, the editors say that their views as to the pro priety of making a nomination this month have undergone a change, and that they now advo cate tho making of a nomination for the Presi dency at the earliest moment. This may be j an indication that the adoption of the above j platform and the prompt nomination of candi dates are part and parcel ot the same policy, i and that the triends of the one would also press i the other. Wc shall see. | - -*■ Fensacola and Montgomery Kail Hoad. Ihe 1 onaacola Gazette of the ltith instant says : Wo have the satisfaction to announce i that a contract has this day been concluded between the Alabama and Florida Kail Road Company on the one part, and Milner, Brougli ton & Cos., of Montgomery, on tho other part tor tho construction of the entire line of Rail Road from a point in the city of Pensacola, to be designated by the President and Director ot the Company, to the Alabama line. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. Main Trunk Bill Passed—Amended. Cm rvspoinlcnCe of tiie Huvanmdi Journal. Thiiusdav, Feb. 21. House or Kkhkksbntativks. —On yester day, in consequence of the death of -Mr. Cun ningham, the member from Forsyth, the House and Senate passed the usual resolutions and adjourned for'the day, to attend the body of the deceased to the depot, in its mournful pas sage to its fimilresting place in Forsyth county. The deceased was, probably, the oldest man in the House, and sunk under nn attack pt i pneumonia, increased in consequence of expo sure during the severe weather of the last few weeks. This morning the House met ut 9.1 o’clock, the clouds slowly, and yet continuously pour ing their liquid contents Upon the wet and muddy streets. A bill providing for the payot’ t'aptain Pat terson’s troop of mounted volunteers of Union county, for services rendered during tho re- j moval of the Cherokee Indians, heretofore un der consideration, was reported on this morn ing, by a special committee, who recommend ed the passage of a substitute in lieu of tiie j original bill, providing for the appointment of Commissioners by tiie Governor, to inquire j into the facts, and if they are entitled to pay, I to audit their accounts, and have them paid. The substitute was adopted and passed. The special committee on the Alain Trunk Atlantic & Gulf Railway, through their chair- j man Mr. Jones, made their report again this j morning. They report two amendments, one limiting the subscription of tbe State to $1,000,000, and the other not allowing the superstructure or iron to be placed on the road, until either the Savannah or Brunswick road are running cars in connection with it. The bill was considered and supported by Messrs. Irvin (of Wilkes) and Dawson; and opposed by Dr. l’hilips and Mr. Ward. On the passage, the yeas are 78—nays 50. The result was extremely gratifying to the friends of the measure. 1 think the measure will pass without difficulty the Senate. Tho day is breaking for Southern Georgia— her future is destined to be, I trust, such a one as will add to the dignity, strength and population of our State. Kansas Documents. The following documents, communicated to Congress by the President last Monday, will be read with much interest: Mr. Morey to (for. Shannon. Department or Statu, | Washington, Feb. 10, 1856. j Sir : 1 herewith enclose to you a copy of a proclamation by the President, dated lltli inst., duly authenticated, and also a copy of orders issued from the Department of War to Col. Sumner and Rrev. Col. Cooke, of the U. States army. The President is unwilling to believe that in executing your duties ns Governor of tho Ter ritory of Kansas there will be any occasion to call in the aid of the United States troops for that purpose, and it is enjoined upon you to do all that can possibly tie done before resort ing to that measure ; yet if it becomes indis pensably necessary to do so, in order to execute the laws and preserve peace, you are hereby authorized by the President to make requisi tion upon the officers commanding tiie United States military forces at Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley for such assistance as may be need ed for tho above specified purposo. While confiding in the respect of our citi zens for the laws, and the efficiency of the or dinary means provided for protecting their rights and property, ho dooms it, however, not improper, considering the peculiar situation of affairs in the Territory of Kansas, that you should be authorized to have the power herein conferred with a view to meet any extraordin ary emergency that may arise ; trusting that it will not be used until you shall find a resort to it unavoidable in order to insure the due execution of the laws and to preserve the pub lic peace. before any actual interposition of the mili tary force on any occasion, you will cause the proclamation of the President, with which you are herewith furnished, to he publicly read. 1 am sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, W. L. MARt’Y. lion. Wilson Shannon, Governor of the Territory of Kansas. ‘the Secretary of War to Colonels Sunnier anil Cooke. Wah Department, \ Washington, Feb. 15, .1856. j Sir: The President lias, by proclamation, warned all persons combined for insurrection or invasive aggression against tho organized government of the Territory of Kansas, or as sociated to resist the due execution of the laws therein, to abstain from such revolutionary and lawless proceedings ; and has commanded j them to disperse and retire peaceably to their j respective abodes on pain of being resisted by | his whole constitutional power. If, therefore, the governor of the Territory, finding the or dinary course of judicial proceedings and the powers vested in United Stntesinnrshals inade quate for the suppression of insurrectionary combinations or armed resistance to the exe cution ot the law, should make requisition upon you to furnish a military force to aid him in the performance of that official duty, you are hereby directed to employ for that purpose such part of your command as may in your judgment consistently lie detached from their ordinary duty. In executing this delicate function of the military power of the United States, yon will exercise much caution to avoid, if possible, collision with even insurgent citizens : aud will endeavor to suppress resistance to the laws and constituted authorities by that moral force which, happily, in our country, is ordinarily sufficient to secure respect to the laws of the land and the regularly constituted authorities of the government. You will use a sound dis cretion ns to the moment at which the further ; employment of the military force may be dis [ continued, and avail yourself of the ‘first op portunity to return with your com maud to the more grateful and prouder service of the sol- ! diev—that of common defence. For your guidance in the premises, you arc 1 referred to the Acts of 28th Feb., 1795, and I 8d of March. 1807, [see Military Laws, pages 861 and 128,] and to the proclamation of The President, a copy of which is herewith trans mitted. Should you need further or more specific instructions, or should, in tho progress of j events, doubts arise in your mind ns to the course which it may be proper for v ou to pur sue. you will communicate directly with this ‘ department, stating the points upon which you wish to bo informed. Very respectfully, Y our obedient servant, JEFFERSON DAVIS, Secretary of War. War Department, f February 15, 1855. j Sii . Ihe foregoing is a copy of the letters addressed to Col. E. V. Sumner, United States army, commanding at Fort Leavenworth, and ! to Brevet Coi. I*. St. G. Cooke, commanding . at Fort Riley, ami is furnished for your infor mation. 1 have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant, JEFFERSON DAVIS. Hon. Wilson Shannop, Governor of Kansas Territory. J ‘ ♦ _ * ARRIVAL OF THE HSTNA. Halifax, Feb. 22. The screw steamer-Etna lias put into this port, short of coni, with Havre dates to Feb. 5. She livings no intelligence of the Pacific, and nothing farther from England. The report was still current at Paris that Russia would not lie permitted to participate in the peace Conference. Russia’s acceptance had caused the greatest i astonishment in Turkey. Public confidence in the establishment of peace is increasing in France. From Spain, the advices are that a serious military conspiracy had been discovered at Madrid, having ramifications throughout the | North of Spain. No particulars given. -*• Now Ohi. f,a\s, Feb. 22. Sales to-day, 8,500 bales. The demand is i feeble, though prices are unchanged. Sales j of the week 52,000 bales. Receipts of the 1 week, 70,000, against 26,000 for tlie corres ponding week last year. The increase this i year to date, 825,000 bales. Stock on hand j 248,000 halos. The Pacific. Augusta, Feb. 22. Rapt. Lang, of tiie steamer Panada, thinks the report of the arrival of the Pacific in the Shannon is unfounded. Heavy westerly gales prevailed, and lie thinks there would be no difficulty in her putting hack under canvas, if disabled. The American Convention. Philadelphia, Feb. 22. The National Council having adjourned yes terday, the National Convention assembled to day. A temporary organization lias been effected, much time having been occupied in the examination of members, especially in the case of the Pennsylvania delegates, two sets being present.. From Washington. Wash lx/iton, Eeb. 20. Senate.—Sir. Douglas was excused from serving on the committee on foreign relations. A brief discussion was had on the Central American question, after which a resolution calling for the journal of the late Naval Board, was adopted? House.— Air. Mace introduced a bill to pre vent the extension of slavery to territory novth of 86 ‘leg. 80 min. It produced quite a sensa tion. lie moved the reference of the resolu tion to the committee on territories, pending action on which motion, the House resumed the consideration of the contested election of Delegates from Kansas. The resolution of the committee on elections, asking for power to send for papers and poisons in the case, was finally laid on the table by three majority, sub sequent to which the resolution was recom mitted with instructions. Washington, Feb. 21. Senate. —Nothing of public interest was done to-day. Adjourned till Alonday. House.— -Rev. David Waldo of the State of New York, a Revolutionary soldier, was chos en chaplain. Adjourned till Alonday. National American Council. Philadelphia, Feb. 20. The resolution to rescind the 12th section of the national platform was amended to-day by a substitute, which was adopted by a vote of 104 to 64. Pending the passage o*f the resolu tion, a motion to adjourn till to-morrow was carried. It is believed that tlieSouthcra dele gates will withdraw in a body if the resolution is adopted. Philadelphia, Feb. 21. The National Council Ims adopted a plat form, the substance of which was foreshadow ed in the Washington Organ of the 15th inst. This platform takes the place of that agreed upon in -Tune last, and was adopted by 108 to 77. A Hotel Thief Caught. Y esterday morning a man who registered his name at the United States Hotel, as 11. J. j Thomason, from Clarke county, Ga., was ar- I rested for practising the art of Hotel thieving, in which ho had been quite successful. About ten days ago, a gentleman, E. A. Tiun | lin, of Cass county, who stopped at the U. S. | Hotel, was robbed of nine hundred dollars, I and some other articles have been missed about the Hotel; and as there were some sus picions that Thomason was the thief, a close watch was kept on him by tlio proprietor aud others. On Tuesday night, he lodged in the the same room with J. W. Varner of Greene county, with whom he had some slight ac quaintance, and yesterday morning Air. V. found he had been relieved of fifteen hundred dollars, whereupon, Thomason was immedi ately arrested, and all the money’ recovered but one hundred and thirty dollars. Thoma son was committed for a hearing. —Auyiuta Cfirnii., 21*/. -■ ♦ Tlio Holy Places. iho Marquis do Forbiu Jansen, who was sent some time ago to that city by the French gu\eminent, tor the purpose of inquiring into the encroachments made at different times bv the Greeks upon the Holy Places at Jerusalem, belonging to the Latins, has at length accom plished his mission, and is now on his way back to France. Among the Holy Places in question is the great church of St. Alary, at Bethlehem, the nave and four aisles of which, exclusive ot the choir, have become a kind of bazaar, otten trequented, it would seem, bv tho rising generation of the above mentioned town as a capital play-ground; iutlie evening tiie women assemble there to enjoy the cool ness of the place, and tiie Bedouins of the neighborhood make it their council room, where they adjust differences among them selves. The choir is in the hands of the Greeks and Armenians, who celebrate their worship there, and nothing is left to the Roman Cath olics but a small chapel, which cannot contain one-fourth of the Latin population. The other sanctuaries, the restitution of which is claimed by tlio Lntius, arc the great- dome of the rotun da of the Holy Sepulchre, the monument and small eupulo enclosing the tomb of Jesus Christ, the stone of the unction at the foot if Golgotha, the seven arches of the Virgin be hind the Magdalen Chapel, the Church of the Sepulchre of tho Virgin at Oethseuinne, and the birth place of our Saviour, in the crypt, under the choir of the church of Bethlehem. During his stay at Jerusalem the Marquis de Forbin Jansen was decorated with the Order of the Holy Sepulchre, by the Latin Patriarch, who is the Grand Master of thatOnler. —Timm Correspondent.
