V competent Job Printer, of good habits, will flud permanent employment at tlie Sun Job t iflice. ♦ The .Montgomery Advertiser says, that its warning in reference to au infringement on its copyright for publishing Gov. Winston s Ve toes was only made jocular ly, and that it wants no other copyright than a right to copy the Vetoes from the journals. Wo still adhere to our opinion, however, that if originality enti tlns an author to u copyright, Gov. Winston or his assignee is clearly entitled to a copyright for these rare State papers. A Shanghai hen near Portsmouth, Va., Jias laid an egg, through the half-transparent shell of which could be read the inscription, intide, “Fever will not return 1856”! The editor of the Norfolk Herald has seen the egg, which was sent to him by Mr. Perry, the owner of the hen. There wore a number of Chinese characters on the inside of the shell, hut these were probably some Shanghai lays, and were not intelligible to the good people about Nor folk. It is not recorded that Wyman had been in that neighborhood; neither had the “fool- Idller”—that’s evident. We notice that the Western papers generally arc already predicting a very large wheat crop tliis year. They estimate that a larger amount than usual lias been planted, and they regard the snow that has so long covered the ground as a great help to the crop. The Chicago Journal estimates the value of the snow, as a fertilizer and protection to the crop, ns equal to live inches of manure. ♦ The Atlanta Intelligencer thinks that the New England delegation to the Democratic National Convention will be almost unani mously for the re-election of President Pierce. .Should this be the case, the probability is that he will command nearly or quite a two-thirds vote, for it is understood that most of the Southern delegates as yet appointed are also for him. Significant. The French Journal ties Debuts has an article designed to show that uji to the present time the interests and purposes of France and Krig- Ifind have been identical: but that if the war continues in the Baltic or in Asia, it will only subserve the private interests of England.— The inference is, that if the Allies have to carry on the war, in the opinion of the French editor, the interests of France will he subserv ed by an expedition against Poland or some other vulnerable part of the Russian territory, and that France is not particularly desirous either for a campaign in Asia to protect Bri tish India and the overland route thither, or for giving her ally an opportunity to retrieve by naval victories in the Baltic her reverses before Sevastopol. The opinion is gaining ground that the discussions in the Conference at Paris will disclose conflicting aims and poli cy between these powers, and that at its close the union between them will not by any means be as cordial and sincere as it has heretofore been regarded. The Politicians in a Row. The American Council and Convention at Philadelphia have been several times reported to he in a state of great excitement and con fusion. In tiie former body, after the adop tion of a substitute for the l‘2th section of the platform of 1855, the “wildest excitement’ pervaded the Southern delegations, and many of their members withdrew. In the Nomina ting Convention, when it became apparent that the majority was for Fillmore, we are inform ed by telegraph, the delegates from Connecti cut, Rhode Island, Ohio and Massachusetts, and a part of the delegates from Illinois, lowa and Pennsylvania, seceded. The North ern wing of the party appear to have carried their point in the Council, while the Southern party triumphed in the Convention; and the probability is, that in the Southern States many members will repudiate the platform hut adhere to the candidates, while in the North numbers will “ignore” the candidates but stick to the platform. It is impossible as yet to pronounce what effect the action of the two bodies will have upon the strength id’ the party as a national organization. The Ariel Murder Case. The trial of Lakeman, the first mate of the Ariel, for the* murder ot her captain, is still in progress in Charleston, and lias occupied many days. The Standard of the 2(>th iust. dates that rumors were rife that Anderson (the boy first tried and acquitted, and who had been permitted to leave the city) had uiado important disclosures, which wore “ greatly calculated to change the feeling with which parties implicated wev -. a short time since, re garded.” The Standard is well assured that these reports are true, and that the confes sions of Anderson will be used in case the cause of justice should require it. - The papers of the towns on the Ohio river are anticipating a great flood from the melting of the ice aud snow, and they are urging per sons on the hanks of the stream to use all available precautions to lessen the amount of injury that must ensue. - Mob Law in Illinois. On the 15th inst., a large crowd assembled at Charlestown, Illinois, to witness the execu tion of a man who had been condemned to death for the murder of his father-in-law. But before the hour set for the execution, a respite from the Governor arrived, extending the prisoner’s term of life ninety days; upon hearing whicli the mob became much excited, aud finally a portiou of them broke open tho jail, brought out the prisoner, and hung him from the branch of a tree. The sheriff was unable to withstand them, but has since ar rested several of the leaders. The impression prevails at Milledgeville, we learn, that the Legislature will conclude its labors and adjourn on Saturday next. Tint.er News from Califorr in. The steamship Daniel Webster, which arri ved at New Orleans on Monday, brings later dates from the Pacific coast. There had been considerable rain in California, and the pros pects of the farmers; were considered good; minors’prospects also regarded as excellent.— The Legislature had not been able to elect a Putted States Senator, and it was believed that no election could be effected during this session. Tlx-Gov. Foote was the Know-Noth ing nominee. Messrs, banders and Hammond, former collectors of the port of San Francisco, had both been indicted for embezzling the public funds. No more fighting with the Indians in Oregon was reported. It was stated that all the Central American States except Nicaragua liad formed an alli ance; also that Col. Kinney had gone to Gran ada to effect an alliance with Walker. Should these reports prove to be correct, it will no doubt turn out that European intluenee lias been at work to prejudice and combine the other States against Nicaragua, and that Kin ney ami Walker, hitherto rivals and .jealous of ench other, see that they must act together against acommon enemy. In this contingency, our Federal authorities will have to be very busy and active to restrain American adventu rers from going to the aid of their late coun trymen. We arc convinced that the foothold obtained by our people in Nicaragua will not only be maintained, but advanced, and that the republic regenerated by them will soon attain a commanding position in that quarter. —♦ — 1 The New American Platform. We have received by mail an authentic copy of the new Platform adopted by the Know- Nothing National Council at Philadelphia, but as we find that our report of it, given last week, was entirely correct, and indeed a ver batim copy of the most important sections, we do not deem it necessary to re-publish it now. A correspondent of the Washington American Organ thus gives the vote upon its adoption: “New York gave an unanimous vote for it, i saving and excepting that extraordinary man, ! Mr. barker. Nearly half the Pennsylvania ; members voted for it. Governor Johnston and his followers voted in the negative. New Jer | sey and Delaware voted unanimously in its favor. Five national members from Massa chusetts voted for it, and eight ultra men from that State against it. Louisiana was equally divided. Ohio, with Gov. Ford in the lead, gave nineteen votes against the platform. Four conservatives from that State voted in the affirmative. The only delegate from Florida (Ex-Governor Call) voted in its favor. He is a thoroughly national man. Maryland gave five votes for, and three against it. Tennessee gave nine votes for, and three votes against it. Kentucky stood seven for, and five votes against it. North Carolina was divided, and Virginia was unanimous against, the platform.” ♦- Russian Circular Accepting Peace. The following is a translation of the circular issued by the Russian Government to its di plomatic agents, in which it announces the acceptance of the Austrian proposals. This document is dated St. Petersburg, Jan. 10. “ Public opinion in Europe lias been strong ly excited by the intelligence that propositions of peace concerted between the allied powers and Austria had been transmitted to St. Peters burg through the intervention of the cabinet at Vienna. “ Already the imperial cabinet, upon its side, had made a step in the path of concilia tion, by pointing out, in a despatch bearing date the 11 th (23d) of December, published in all the foreign journals, the sacrifices which it was prepared to make, with a view to the restoration of peace. “This two-fold proceeding proved the exis fence on either side of a desire to profit by the compulsory cessation imposed by the rigor of the season on the military operations in or der to respond to the unanimous wishes which were everywhere manifested in favor of a speedy peace. “In the despatch cited above tlie imperial government had taken for basis the four points of guarantees admitted by the conferences at Vienna, and had proposed with regard to the third point, which had alone led to the rup ture of the conferences, a solution which dif fered rather in form than in substance from the one put forward at that epoch by the allied powers. The propositions transmitted to-day by the Austrian government speak of the same fun damental proposition—that is to say, the neu tralization of the Black Sea by a direct treaty between Russia and the Forte, to regulate by common agreement the number of ships of war which each of the adjacent Powers reserves the right of maintaining for the security of its coast. They only differ appreciably from those contained in the despatch of the lltli (23d) December, by the proposal for rectifying the frontier between Moedavia and Bessarabia, in exchange for the places on the Russian Territory, in the actual occupancy of the ene my. “This is not the place to inquire if these pro positions unite the conditions necessary for in suring the repose of the East and the security of Europe, rather than those of the Russian government. It is sufficient here to establish the point that at last an agreement lias been actually arrived at on many of the fundamental bases for peace. “ Due regard being had to this agreement, to the wishes manifested by the whole of Eu rope, and to the existence of a coalition the tendency of which was every day to assume larger proportions, and considering the sacri fices which a protraction of the war imposes upon Russia, the Imperial Government lias deemed it its duty not to delay by accessory discussions a work, the success of which would respond to its heartfelt wishes. “ It has, in consequence, just given its ad hesion to the propositions transmitted by the Austrian Government ns a project of prelimi naries for negotiations for peace. “ By the energy of its attitude in the face of a formidable coalition, Russia bus given a measure of the sacrifices which she is prepar ed to make to defend her honor and dignity ; by this act of moderation the Imperial Gov ernment gives at the same time anew proof of its sincere desire to arrest the effusion of blood, to conclude a struggle so grievous to civilisation and humanity, and to restore to Russia and to Europe the blessings of peace. “ It has aright to expect that the opinion of all civilized nations will appreciate the act.” - The Hon. Edward Everett has been invited by the ladies of Richmond, Virginia, to repeat a discourse on the Life and Services of Wash ington, which he is preparing to deliver in Boston, on the 22d of Feb. He Ims accepted the invitation, and appointed the 13th of March for its delivery. The proceeds of the lecture are to go towards the purchase of the Mount Vernon property. GEORGIA LEGIHLiATTIRE. (mi • 11 1 1"1 11. 1 1 1 | in- s.iv.uumli Journal. Monday, Feb. 25. 1 am gratified to be able to announce to yon, that the assurance made in my note of Friday evening, in relation to the success of the At lantic and Gulf Railroad, has been realized to day, by its triumphant passage through the Senate. A number of motions were made to amend the bill, but none of them were agreed to. The only one which seemed to recom mend itself to the Senate was one providing for the representation of the State in the board of direction- -but as was announced by Mr. Spalding, it was contemplated to introduce a joint resolution: to accomplish this, which was done this evening, Mr. Spalding offered a resolution providing that the Governor for the time being shall east the vote of the State of Georgia as a stockholder in the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, at all elections of directors and at all meetings of stockholders. Sknati;. —An unsuccessful attempt was made to reconsider the action of the Senate of Sat urday, relating to the bill restricting Bank agencies in this State. Mr. Pope communicated the fact, that the Senate had yet sixty of their own, and two hundred House bills requiring action, and it would lie advisable to dispense with reconsid erations for the future. 11l 1.1. s ON THU ill i> AS SACK. A bill to appropriate money to Dr. Head for services rendered during the prevalence of the Small Fox in Oglethorpe, l’asscd. The Atlantic and Gulf Railroad bill was ta ken up by sections, and considered. Dr. Screven labored unceasingly and unre mittingly for its passage, unamended, and may bo considered one of the champions most effectual in its success. The bill passed— yeas 55, nays 251. A bill to incorporate Garnet llill Mining Company. Passed. A bill to allow Administrators, Executors and Guardians, residing out of the State, to control stock in the State. Passed. A bill declaring who shall be competent witnesses. Passed. A bill appropriating SI,OOO to fixing the Capitol, and leaving the question of re-con struction or reiuovaltothcpeoplc. Mr. Brown of Baldwin, offered a substitute, appropriating $7,500 to repairing the Capitol. Mr. l’opc offered an amendment striking out $7,500 and inserting SIO,OOO, and also au additional sec tion, appropriating $5,000 to repairing the Executive Mansion. He withdrew the first amendment, however, upon the request of Mr. Brown, who stated that $7,500 would be suffi cient, the point having been decided by com petent persons, The section was added and the substitute of Mr. Brown passed by a vote of 72 ayes, to 10 nays. A bill to appoint a Commissioner for the Green and Pulaski Monument Lottery. Lost. V bill to regulate suits in theSnpreme Court. Passed. A bill allowing the testimony of practising Physicians to be taken by interrogatories.— Lost. House of Repuksentativks.—The follow ing bills of tiie Senate were passed by the House, to-day, viz: A bill digesting and amending the various laws on the subject of Attachment and Garnishment. A bill to au thorize all controversies to be submitted to ar bitration, and providing the mode of settling the same. A bill making public profanity penal, Ne., and a Bill confering on the Justices of the Inferior Court of this State the criminal jurisdiction now exercised by Justices of the Peace. The Senate amendments to the Bill of the House appropriating a sum of money for the completion of the Lunatic Asylum were con curred in; also to the Bill relative to the re moval or re-construction of tiie State Capitol. This amendment demolishes the original bill with the exception of its title, and appropri ates seven thousand dollars for the purpose of repairing the present building. A number of unimportant bills of the Senate were passed. A Timely Warning. Extract of aii official letter from Air. Maicy to Mr. Crauipton, dated April 20, 1854, one | month after the declaration of war in Europe: •• The undersigned is directed by the Presi dent to state to her Majesty’s minister to this government, that the United States, while claiming the full enjoyment of their l ights as a neutral power, will observe the strictest neu trality towards each and all the belligerents. The laws of this country impose severe rc ! strictions not only upon its own eitizens, but i upon all persons who may be residents within | any of the territories of the United States, ; against equipping privateers, receiving com i missions, or enlisting men therein, for thepur | pose of taking part in any foreign war. It is not apprehended that there will be any attempt to violate the laws; but should the just expectation of the President be disappoint ed, lie will not fail in his duty to use all the power with which lie is invested to enforce obedience to them. Considerations of interest and tiie obligations of duty alike give as j suranee that the eitizcns'of the United States will in no way compromit the neutrality of their country by participating in the contest I in which the principal powers of Europe arc now engaged.” 11 was in the face of this notice that the British government, through the agency of Mr. Crumpton himself, proceeded to parcel out the United States into recruiting districts, and for a period of six months to continue “enlist ing men” in defiance of all the counteracting efforts and remoust ranees of the local officers lof the United States.— H'ac/t. Union. - ■ -- —•— Revolting Murder. A most brutal murder was committed near this city on the Houston road, on the IStliinst., upon the person of an old and trusty negro i man, named Sam West, well known to and much respected by our citizens. He was a wagoner, ami on his return home, had camped for the night. He was found next day with Ids head split open with his own axe. The blow fell near the temple, lie had upon his person money, the amount not known. A man by the name of Thomas Sorril lias been arrest ed as the suspected murderer, and after a pre liminary examination before a Justices’ Court, has been committed. Upon him was found some of the negroes’ apparel.— Macon Messenger. Gone to Bed in a Snow Bank. Between It and 10 o’clock at night a person passing near tiie head of the turnpike saw a man, undressed with the exception of liis shirt, lying asleep in a snow bank. His garments had boon carefully taken off and were scat tered all about him. He was found to be a resident of the neighborhood, who had got so far homeward, in a drunken condition, and, supposing himself to be snug in his own cham ber, had taken off his clothes and gone to bed. —Salem Gazette. - —♦_ - A Reason. A lady walking a few days since on one of the wharves in Yasked a sailor whom she met, why a ship was called “she.” The son of Neptune replied that it was “because the rigging costs more than the hull.” The Superior Courts—Times for holding them. The General Assembly has passed a bill and the Governor has approved the same, fixing the times for holding the Superior Courts in a number of counties as follows: In Marion outlie first Monday in March and September; in Harris on the second Monday in April and October ; in Muscogee on the first Monday in May and November ; in Lowndes on the third Monday in June and December.

The Kickapoo Rangers threat en hostilities, and the Free State men are pre paring for them, and two mounted companies have left Lawrence for Eaton, where a conflict is expected. ♦- The Philadelphia Convention. Philadelphia, Feb. 25. The resolution declaring that the Convention had no right to prescribe a platform opposing the nomination of any candidate not in favor of the Missouri Compromise was lostby a large majority. The Convention then was about to proceed to nominate, and Mr. Fillmore’s pros pects were apparently in the ascendant, when the delegates from Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, a part of Illinois, lowa ancl Pennsylvania seceded. —a Cincinnati, Feb. 25. The river is rising. The ice lias broken up and seven steamboats sunk. Congressional. Washington, Feb. 25. The .Senate adopted a resolution, calling for all the correspondence on the British Enlist ment question, with the evidence deemed ne cessary to show the connection of British agents with the violation of our neutrality laws. Jones spoke on Kansas Question. Nothing done in the House. ♦ It is stated as an additional item of news concerning the peace negotiations, that Prince Gortschakoff, when signing the protocol at Vienna accepting the propositions, demanded that Prussia should be invited to take part. Count Bind supported the demand, but Bor quency and Sir 11. Seymour wished to refer to their governments. Defective Orthography. Tiie following is tiie exact spelling of the superscription of a letter, which a day or two since was dropped in the postoffice at Middle boro’ : “Abell llychmun Ilalleighphacks Mass.” Strange to tell, it reached the one for whom it was intended, Abel Richmond, Halifax. . Would have the Reason. On Tuesday last Mr. John Roe prosecuted his shop mate, Robert Loud, for an assault and battery. While tiie complainant was under examination the following colloquy took place between him and the defendant’s counsel: “ Did you not call my client here, and de fendant, a fool ?” “ I did.” “ Why did you sir?” “ l decline to answer that quostion.” •* Why do you decline it ? I’ll appeal to the court to punish you for your contumacy. You I ought to he fined for contempt. I’ll let you know that you can’t call my client a fool, with out giving your reasons for it.” ‘.I don’t know that my reasons have anything to do with the case.” “ I’ll let you know they have. Now answer the question.” “ Well if 1 must, I must. 1 said 1 thought lie was a fool, because lie didn’t know better than to hire such a chucklehead as you to de fend him.” The counsel dropped the witness and let the question of contempt pass. Taxing the Oysters. Gov. Hiseiu a late message transmitting certain documents from the Board of Public Works, recommends an increase of the revenue of Virginia, by a tax of- one cent per bush el upon oysters taken from the Virginia shores for exportation. He says about twenty-seven millions of bushels are taken away every year, only one-sixth of which are carried in Virginia bottoms. At the valuation they bear where taken, (twenty cents per bushel) they were worth $5,400,000, and the proposed tax would yield $270,000. per annum, inclusive of the cost of collection. He says that hands engag ed in this business earn from two to ten dollars daily. JOSEPH GARI i \, DEALER IN CIGARS, TOBACCO, SNUFF, &c., One Door below Andrews, Ridgeway A Cos..
