COLTJMBtJS: Tiii'iidny MornlßK, February •<, 1 #*• I. AIUiKST CITY CIRCULATION. PRINTER WANTED. A competent Job Printer, of good habits, will find permanent employment at tin* Sun Job < Mice. ♦ Her IliKt p*gc. ♦ Probably Fatal Affray. About o’clock on Sunday evening, a quarrel arose iu the Oglethorpe. House, in this j city, between John Chisholm (the young man recently held to bail on a charge of purloining valuable letters from the post office in this city) and John Wood, barkeeper at the Hotel, and from words the parties came to blows. We learn that Wood had thrown Chisholm to the floor, and that in this, position the latter j drow a pistol and shot him through the body. Wood was last night considered very danger ously, if not mortally, wounded. Chisholm immediately lied, and has not been arrested. P S. Chisolm was arrested Sunday night, at I a ‘•tatiouon the Opelika Railroad, where bent- ; tempted to get on the cars going West, and was brought back to this city and committed to jail for examination. Mr, Wood was in a very critical position yesterday evening, and but little hope of bis recovery was entertained. Uroceries in New Orleans. It will be seen by the ((notations under our Commercial head, that the prices of several leading articles of Western Produce have ma terially declined in New Orleans, and that they are now selling at more reasonable rates. We trust that our merchants will “make a note of it,” and avail themselves of the opportunity thus afforded to feed our community at tiring prices. ♦ Arrest of Burge’s Accomplice. E. D. Worrell, charged with being the ac complice of Wm. Purge (whose arrest in this State we noticed the other day) in the murder of a man in Missouri, was trucked to the house of his father in Dover, Delaware, and there ar rested mi the 19th inst. He denied commit ting the murder, but acknowledged that he was standing by at the time. He had, how ever, a pair of saddle-bags, a watch and a blanket in his possession, which a brother-in law of (Jordon (the murdered man) recoguizcd as the property of his connexion. Worrell was taken hack by the officers to Missouri, without waiting for a requisition. The prompt and speedy tracking of these men through several States, while they were using every artifice to delude nml evade their pursuers, and their arrest on the same day in States more than athousand miles apart, speak well for the efficiency of our police system. We wish it was as efficient to prevent and quell disturbances of the peace as it is to catch offenders after the commission of crimes. Cheap Oats at Atlanta. The Intelligencer of yesterday morning, says “the amount of oats in this market is larger than was ever known before. One week ago they were selling from the wagons in our streets at 50 cts. per bushel. On Saturday an abundance could he had at -5 to 30 cents.” Material Aid for Kansas. In tin* last t’ahaha (Ala.) Gazette, we find a note from Mr. IV. W. Boykin, of Portland Beat, Dallas county, who is one of a Committee ap pointed at the late Kansas meeting in Calioba, informing the editor that he has “obtained pledges amounting to about seven hundred dollars, ami may possibly obtain more.” This is aid to the project of Maj. Buford. The subscription of so large an amount in a Beat that does not poll exceeding thirty votes, speaks well for the cause in that portion of Mahaiua. The amount, he says will shortly be placed in the hands of Boykin and Mcßae, in Mobile. Making Good Time. We leavn from the Apalachicola Advertiser, that the steamer Ben Franklin, (’apt. Berry, left that place on Wednesday the 13th, and made the trip to Eufaula and returned Sun day the 17th, carrying into port a cargo of 1267 bides of cotton. This, remarks the Ad vertiser, is the best time ever made, and the cargo, the largest of the season. Decisive. The Washington correspondent of the t'h(trieston Standard writes (February 20tli): ” Uovernor Shannon assured me, before leav ing the city, a few evenings since, that, he was instructed to arrest every member of the Kan sas Free Soil Legislature, should they attempt to assemble under the pretended State Consti tution.’’ We trust that lie is also instructed to hold them to answer a charge of treason against the United States, and that the ease will be prosecuted with a determination and to a result that will be a warning to nil similar conspirators and law-breakers. ♦ A New Sugar Cone. The Agricultural Division of the Patent Of fice in Washington, has been taking some pains to introduce the Chinese Sugar Cane and to promote its culture in this country. We ob serve that Mr. 11. Dour and Mr. W. Furbringer, of New Orleans, advertise the seed for sale. The True Delta says of this plant : “This new product bids fair to become of immense national importance. It has succee ded admirably in almost exert/ strtkm of the Union, growing to a height of twelve to fifteen feet, nnd yielding, by estimate, 12.1 per cent, by weight, of beautiful crystalled cane sugar; also, twenty-five tons per acre of excellent greeu fodder, much relished by cattle, swine, and the like. Hut the yield in alcohol is more important. The llolcus gives 182 to 190 gal lons to the acre. In France Mr. dc Heaure gard obtained from the juice of this plant an alcohol of excellent flavor, which he sent to (he market of Marseilles, where it realized the “i>me price as the alcohol from grapes.” Land Warrants have declined one cent per acre in value since our last quotations. The Washington paper’s still insist that there must be a further decline soon, and attribute the present holding up to the fact that the com missioner has been so occupied by pressing business in the Pension Office that he had not signed any warrants since the 12th inst. The News from Europe. Onr telegraphic despatches will be lound ol unusual and exciting interest. Again we are told that wc are on the very brink ol a war with Great Britain, and that so great is the in compatibility ol the views ami claims ol the two Governments, that no peaceable solution of their difficulties is apparent. Their res pective representatives have passed the limits of calm and courteous discussion, and each hotly maintains the position his Government has assumed. The London press, too, indul ges in hitter vituperation of the United .States, ’ and fans the flame of strife. We apprehended that a crisis of this kind was near at hand, when we read the report of Lord Clarendon s remarks brought out by the Canada. We could find in them no indication ol a change ol any position on the part of the Government he ; represented, and we felt that the Administra tion at Washington c >uld not admit the claims 1 or the propositions of England. Our case is so evidently right, and so clearly made out, ; that it is difficult to account for the haughty | stubbornness of Great Britain, Whether her menacing attitude is assumed because, in her present mortifying position before the world, she feels that a little bravado and bluster is wanting to restore her prestiye, or whether she really attaches importance to the claims she has set up in reference to Central America and the enlistment policy, and seriously means to maintain them by force of arms, the future must determine. But, backed as our Admin istration is in this case by the almost unani mous support of the country, it is idle to ex pect that Great Britain (however “allied” or backed) can either frighten the I nited States into terms or maintain by arms her pretensions. —* - The Municipal Difficulty in Montgomery. The citizens’ meeting held last week, to take into consideration the amended charter and the financial condition of the city, was unable to agree as to the propriety or the practical effect of the restrictions complained of, and ad journed without action. At- a meeting of the Council held on Friday night, wc understand, live members resigned, the Council first elect ing in their places five prominent citizens fa vorable to the amendments passed by the Leg islature. Hon. Geo. Goldthwaite, lion. Wm. L. Yancey and F. Bughee, Jssq., wc learn, were three of the gentlemen so elected. Five other Counciliiuui announced their intention of re signing us soon as the new members are quali fied, so tlmt live more “reformers” may then ho elected, and thus the control of the city’s affairs will pass into the hands of the party sustaining the action of the Legislature. ♦ We have the first day’s proceedings of the Know-Nothing National Council (not the nom inating convention) in full; and wo find that neither Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, nor Mississippi, was represented. In fact the entire South was hut meagcrly represented, and the only men of much distinction or note appearing from it were Zollicoffer ami Brown low of Tennessee, and Pike and Fowler of Arkansas. Fourteen nou-slaveholdiug States wore represented, and several of them largely. • A convention representing all the “isms” of the day—Black Republicanism being the dom inant feature—was held at Pittsburg, Pa., on the 23d inst. Its object was to bring about a grand fusion of all factions to carry the Presi dential and other elections of this year, and with this object in view, it is intimated, it will admit everybody “and no questions asked.”— The piebald assembly acted with harmony enough to call a “National” Convention to ! meet at Harrisburg on the 1 7tli of June, to nominate candidates for tlie Presidency, and then adjourned. The New York Herald states that the pre vious offer to refer to arbitration the Central American dispute, was made about a year ago by Lord Clarendon to Mr. Buchanan, and that Mr. 15. then replied that there was only one potentate in Europe whom the United States I would in any way consent to accept as arbitra- | tor; he was Nicholas of Russia, with whom j England was at war. The New York Sunday Atlas 1a paper that supports Mr. Buchanan tor the Presidency) states tliat on the Ist instant eleven removals were made from the night-watch of the Gov ernment store-houses in Broad street, and on the 10th twenty-six laborers were discharged from the same locality, and that the cause of their removal was that they had all expressed i themselves in favor of .lames Buchanan for the | next Presidency. —♦ The Triumph of Giddings’ Principles, The Washington correspondent of the New York Evening Post, who is well unformed as to the abolition movements, writes as follows : “ In regard to the Committee on Territories, it was the desire of some republicans that (.! hi dings should be honor* 1 with the chairmanship as a testimonial of appreciation of his eighteen years of hard lighting in the House for the principles which have just triumphed in the election of Speaker. But the appointment of , Grow, of Pennsylvania, the successor of Wil • mot, and not a whit less strenuous in support ing the great tree-soil proviso, was an act ; hardly less emphatic as evidence of Mr. Banks’ ; northern proclivities—especially as Biddings comes second upon the committee.” ■ Mormon Wheelbarrow Emigration. The St. Louis Republican has the following: —An item has lately come to our knowledge which we know to be a fact. And that is the wheelbarrow emigration among the Saints, over the plains, to Salt Lake, in the spring. And with a view of accommodating and expe diting their transit to their new home, the wheelbarrow expedient has been suggested and acted upon. An establishment has received an order, and are now manufacturing about live hundred of the vehicles. Itis proposed that many young men, and those with strength and physical en ergy to endure the trip, can pack their kit of provisions in a wheelbarrow, and trudge aloii” to the Valley of the Saints. The experiment at all events, will be tried. Great Sob- of Negroes. We understand that the sale of the negroes of Mr. Montgomery Bell, deceased, at Valiev Forge, on Wednesday last, brought an aggre gate of 8180,000. Some of the negroes sold a high as $2,000 each.— Xah. flntetu. TELEGRAPHIC. ARRIVAL OF THE ATLANTIC. THREE DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. PROBABLE WAR WITH THE UNITED STATES! Peace Prospects in Europe Favorable. COTTON STEADY. Telegraphed for the Daily Sun. Augusta, Feb. 24. The Steamship Atlantic, from Liverpool, has arrived at New York, bringing European news to the oth instant. Cotton was steady and unchanged iu prices. The sales of the three days since the sailing of the Canada, were 28,000 bales. Consols 001, to 90{j. At London, war with the United States was considered imminent. It was rumored that Mr. Buchanan had demanded his passports. The European Peace Conference will meet j about the last of February, at Paris. The i prospects for a treaty of peace, were still con sidered favorable. STILL LATER. Alt RIVAL OF THE ASIA. COTTON QUIET AND DROOPING. Augusta, Feb. 24 — 0 M. The steamship Asia lias arrived at Halifax, with intelligence three days later than the At lantic, bringing Liverpool dates to the Olli instant. Cotton wus quiet and unchanged, the mark et drooping. The sales of the week since the sailing of the Canada, amounted to 58,000 bales. Consols 01}. Money tighter. The peace prospects were still considered ! good. SECOND DISPATCH. , Serious Difficulty between the United States and England. Iligli Words between Ministers ! Augusta, Feb. 24—!)} P. M. The relations between Great Britain and the United States, were assuming a threatening aspect, and the funds were depressed by re ports concerning them. It is confirmed that strong and high words had passed between Lord Clarendon and Mr. Buchanan. The tone of the British Government organs was insult ing towards America. — .+ — .. The American National Convention. The American National Convention, in sess ion at Philadelphia, lias refused, by a large majority, to defer the nomination of candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency until July. The Convention lias adjourned over until Monday. ♦ - - Savannah, Fob. 25. Nothing doing in cotton to-day. Holders ! firm at Saturday’s prices. Buyers seem ilis ! posed to wait for a concession. Flare up in the Philadelphia Convention. Piiir,Ai>i:r.ruiA, Feb. 23.—The American Convention, yesterday, organized by the elec tion of .Ephraim Marsh, of Now York, Chair man. The delegates from Pennsylvania, who repudiated the twelfth section of the National Platform, after great opposition, were admit ted. This caused the wildest excitement among the southern delegates, numbers of whom withdrew. The Louisiana delegates were unanimously admitted. A split in the ! Convention to-day seems inevitable. The Convention. Pim.iDKLi'iiiA, Ecb. 28.—The Convention to-day has been at fever heat. The Southern ers meet this afternoon to determine on their ; course. The Texas Debt Bill. The Washington Organ ol’ the 21st instant, says: “It remains undecided whether the debt I bill recently passed by the Texas Legislature l will be accepted by the Secretary of the Trcas- I nry, because it is not yet officially known 1 whether the act accepts, without condition, the i law of Congress. The liberation of $7,750,000 } from the Treasury depends upon this fact.— The State of California is said to be similarly j circumstanced with reference to her Indian I war debt. Congress two years ago made an appropriation designed to redeem the bonds of the State representing this debt, but requiring the concurrent action of the State Legislature to enable the creditors to get their money.— ; The Legislature has not acted, and the funds ! to the amount of nearly a million of dollars are lying idle in the custody of the General Gov ernment.’ Bishop Pierce. The Petersburg Express of the 20th instant, j says: * “ This eminent divine and efficient officer of the Methodist E. Church, South, passed through this city yesterday afternoon, en route i fov Newark, New Jersey, where he will dedi cate anew church on Friday next, assisted by ; Bishops Janes and Simpson. Bishop Pierce : was thrice invited by letter to preach the ded icatory sermon, but refused, when the congre gation deputed their pastor to visit the Bishop at his residence in Georgia, and importunate him until he acceded to their wishes. lie lias at last consented, and at considerable incon venience goes to Newark in the hope that his visit may tend to restore the good feeling and brotherly love which once existed between the churches North and South.” I'he Kansas Herald of the 9th of February, >ays that there are three prominent falsehoods before the public: No. 1. That the Missourians came over here and destroyed the ballot box at the election of the bogus State Constitution. The election wa> broken up by citizens, bona-fide residents ot the Territory—not a single Missourian hav ing anything to do with it. No. 2. That Missourians came over here and destroyed the Register Press. This is sn absurd, that every hotly hol e only laughs at the impudence of those who make the state nicnt. \V e say, and challenge any man hero or elsewhere to contradict it. that Missourians ‘/n/ not conic over here and destroy or aid in destroying the Register Press. No. ■>. The Herald of Freedom says : ••That an election was held at Leavenworth on the 1 {'Hi January, and two hundred legal votes given. Every body here knows this is false. Lite city authorities interposed, and the higher law party dared not even attempt to hold an election here on the 15th. Cotton Movements. From the circular of Messrs. Neill, Bros. A Cos., of New York, prepared for the steamer which sailed for Liverpool lad Wednesday, we quote as follows: There is now an increase in receipts as compared with last year of 640,0011 bales, an increase of foreign exports of 380,000 bales, of which 141,000 are to Great Britain, and an increase ot stock of 100,000 hales. “The southern telegraphs show that the item of receipts will be further augmented next week, the joint deliveries in New Orleans and Mobile amounting tv 74,000 hales for the seven days, against 35,000, or more than double, still there are strong indications of the supply from the deep rivers tributary to New Orleans be coming exhausted, and without reference to the extent of the crop grown and held from last year, which wc still think cannot fail, •hort of 3,500,000 bales, it is becoming very problematical if nearly n.s large a quantity will reach the ports. For any sucli result we arc entirely dependent upon the tributary steams, and those which supply New Orleans j are in very nearly as bad a position as at this time last year. It is to be remarked, too, that the bulk id ! the Alabama crop was last year delivered in 1 the Spring months, only 142,000 bales having reached Mobile before this date. This year, however, that port has had good rivers most of the season, and 380,000 baleshave got down, leaving comparatively little for the Spring, even after a large allowance for increased growth. We do not think there is the slightest war rant for the reduction of the estimates of growth advised from the South, but there is daily less j i certainty as to the quantity which may be de- ; livernl this year, and the large wants of this ; i country and the continent of Europe sire worthy ! of attention. “ The Exports have been unusually large ! this week, amounting to 126,000 bales, of ‘ which about one half, say 04,000 bales, have ; been to Great Britain, 15,000 to France, and j 40,000 to other foreign ports. A falling off’ ! however lias taken place iu the number of ships ; | now loading, especially for Great Britain. Strange Mail Matter. An entirely new article of transmission in f the mails was received at the postoffice of this ; | city a few days since. On opening one of the j western mails wlmt should bounce out of the | bag but a small dog, properly addressed to the owner and marked paid, aceordiugto the rules of the department. The little fellow seemed glad to get his liberty again and to breathe the fresh air once more. He arrived at lus desti nation apparently safe and well. SofaraS wc j are aware, this is the first instance of the traui*. portation of live animals by mails. But there is no felling to what ues such a convenient means of public conveyance limy be put when it is once in successful operation, and no other way present s itself. AVc do not know that this is a worse perversion of the design of our pos tal system than occasional practices of members of Congress in sending their washing thou sands of miles to their homes, under the mark of public documents, and with the frank of postage free.- —Western (A*. 1.) /Jan. “Main Trunk Hoad” in North Carolina. There are many reasons for feeling an inter est in the progress of this good old iState. If . slow, she is sure, and her prudence lias given ! her the advantage of the experience of other tstates. \Y© have now before us the closing j report of the Chief Engineer of the North Carolina Railroad Company, (Walter Gwyun, Esq.,) announcing the completion of the work, with the exception of three miles of rails to be laid, which will he performed in a few days. This road commences at Goldsborougli, and extends to Charlotte, near the South Carolina line, 22'! miles, passing through Raileigh, Hillsborough, Greensborougli, Lexington and Salisbury. It was commenced in July, 1851, and “the ceremony of ‘breaking ground’ was performed at Grecnsborough by the llou. Cal vin Graves, whose casting vote, as Speaker of the Senate, for the charter of the company, lms won for hint the appellation of ‘the pilot who weathered the storm,’ although in doing so lie sacrificed himself with Roman devotion j to its fury.” The Engineer states that the extension of ! the North Carolina railroad into Tennessee j and to the seaport at Beaufort is in progress, j The road just finished was built principally by ; farmers on t lie route w orking out a half million of their stock upon their own resources, “an achievement unprecedented in the annals of the public works of thisor any other country,” ami is stated to vindicate the energy, enter prise, and industry of the citizens of the State.” The capital stock of the company is four millions of dollars, the State owning three mil lions and individuals one million. There is now a complete railroad line through North Carolina from north to south, and the prosperity of the State in all respects seems to be onward. —Savannah llep. Product of North Carolina. The popular idea that North Carolina pro duces nothing hut “tar, pitch and turpentine,” ’ is fast being dispelled by the railroads with i which the energy of her citizens is covering her territory. Last year the county of Hyde ! exported corn and wheat to the amount of $860,- 000; and the county of Edgecombe raised and shipped $400,000 worth of cotton. The exports from Washington, N. C., for last year amount ed to 81,020,013 12, of which 887,045 was to foreign countries. Since the opening of the Central railroad to Greensborough, there have been 539 barrels of Hour sent from that town, of which 800 went to Norfolk; 15,000 barrels of dried fruit were among the first receipts in Norfolk which resulted from the opening of the Central railroad. A Gymnastic Senator. The Boston l’ost, referring to Senator Hale s attack on the President's message, says: “Jack Hale turned a summerset, stood on his head, walked on his hands, and cut up other antics to amuse the Senate when the message was read to that body, and finally resumed his seat without injuring anv one or tearing his clothes.” —— * To give an idea of the value of property in this city, we mention the figures in two trans actions which have lately taken place. A lot on College street near the square with twenty five feet front brought $500,00 per foot a few days since, and a lot on the North-east corner of tlie square sold at SSOO per foot. Other property according to location sells at propor tionate .rates throughout the citv. —Xiixhrille Gazette. ♦ “Hoop” Accident, Hoops arc dangerous iu some places. Read and tremble, hi New York a day or two since, a full-rigged lady was walking up Broadway, when one of the hoops with which hercircum anibients were inflated, the ends of which had not been strongly secured together, suddenly broke loose and flying back with great force, tore completely through the outer garments and struck a small boy who was standing on the sidewalk about twenty feet from the lady. The boy was taken home senseless ; it is feared he will not recover. The hoop is already re covered.
