C OLU MBTJS: Ti l y Mornlngi Mamli 11, IK5#. LAHUKST CITV CIRCULATION. The Races. The spring races over the Chattahoochee Course, near this city, commence to-day. We understand several stables of fine racers are on the ground. A dispatch from Washington states that the Baltic brought no communication from Mr. Buchanan to the State Department, and that our Administration does not feel any alarm on account of the concentration of British troops in Canada. ♦ Prices of Western Produce Palling. Cincinnati papers of the -id inst. report sales of Flour at $5 40; Wheat dull at $1 10; large sales of bulk Shoulders and Hides at 5] to OJc.; Bacon Sides at 7,Jc., Shoulders OA to 7 *c.; and Cheese at 10 to l‘2e. It is said that Mr. Singleton, of Mississippi, has declined the Consulate to Havana, lately tendered to him by the President. It is not often that this lucrative berth is declined, and we presume that it will not long go begging. Hon. Robert Toombs of the Senate, and Hen. Ilowell Cobb of the House of Representatives, arc both at present in this State—private bu siness having called them for a lew days lrom their posts at Washington. ♦- Vessels report that the ice-fields in the At lantic are more extensive and dangerous than ever before known, along the Northern route from the United States to Europe. Singular Fact. No citizen of the UnitodStatcs was ever con victed of treason. We find the above remark in a number of our exchanges. We would ask them, l'or what was Aaron Burr sentenced to death ? What was Dorr, of Rhode Island, imprisoned for ? —+ The Warrior river, on the 4th inst., had risen thirty feet at Tuscaloosa. The < ibserver reports the arrival there of quite a number of corn and coal boats from above. Wc believe that such arrivals at Tusc tloosa have been very rare for the last three or four years. The Georgia Penitentiary. The Augusta Constitutionalist, mentions a report that Gov. Johnson has vetoed the bill providing for a lease of the Penitentiary. As the same bill provided first for a lease, and in the event that could not be procured, for tbo removal of the institution to the Stone Moun tain, the effect of the veto will be to retain the Penitentiary at Milledgeville, under State management, until the next meeting of the Legislature. The latest advices from Havana inform us that a largo British fleet was hourly expected to arrive at that port, and that its destination was supposed to bo Nicaragua, ft may be that those of our citizens who are emigrating to Nicaragua will not be at all too fast in their movements. Perhaps some of them may even find the ports blockaded, and receive a polite notice that “filibusters are not admitted here.” Does anybody know anythingof a stray dogma known as “the Monroe doctrine ?” • - A gentleman, who has recently visited many of the sugar parishes of Louisiana, informs the Frankfort Banner that the complaint of the destruction of seed cane by the severe winter is general. In many places, also, tho stubble (ratoons that remain in the ground during the winter ami produce several crops without re planting) had suffered severely, lie con ider ed the prospect for a full crop this year ns very unpromising. New Orleans Cotton .Receipts, etc. The receipts at New Orleans up to the even ing of the litli ins 1 , amounted to 1,321,727 hales. The lied, Ouachita, White, Tennessee and Cumberland rivers were still open, and steamboat arrivals from ports ou all those s reams were reported on that day. The stock of cotton on hand on the fith inst. was 237,1 t) 1 bales. Sugars had slightly advanced—quotations 7J to 7 Jo. for fair to fully fair. Other leading articles remained at about the same prices as our last report. .... •. A New Motor ! We learn from the Selma (Ala.) Reporter, that the stream of water from an artesian well in that city has been turned upon a large wheel at the Central Warehouse to draw up the freight car from the river to the top of the bluff. The power was sufficient to draw up the loadod car, and the Reporter anticipates that the proprietors will find the experiment entirely successful. This enterprise of going down five or six hundred feet into “mother earth’’ to tap and bring up one of her natural elements wherewith to work machinery, is a striking instance of the power of human ge nius. There is a well at Caliaba which dis charges a still larger v \ume of water, and it was at one time intended to operate a factory by its stream, but we believe that it has not yet been applied to this purpose. Thunder Expected. The Washington correspondent ol’ the New York Evening l'ost informs that paper that our Ad • Lustration sent a printed copy of the correspondence on the Enlistment question to each member of the British Houses of Lords and Commons, by the steamship of the Ist inst. This mode of semi-official communica tion with a foreign legislative body is, we be lieve, a novelty in international intercourse, and it will not bo very apt to improve the tem per of Lords Clarendon and Palmerston. It is justified, however, by the attempt of these Ministers to impose upon Parliament an in correct statement of the matter and to misrep rensent the character and progress of the ne gotiations. Should the statement of the Post's correspondent prove to be correct, we shall probably have anew and more appalling “tem pest in a teapot “ when the Engl sh papers of about the middle of this mouth are received.— The great “Thunderer’’ will no doubt “spread” himself to do justice to the occasion, and timid poople would do well to stop their cars with cotton and brace their nerves for the shock. “An Unfortunate Affair.” Garland, the thieving New Orleans Treasu rer, lias been bound over lor trial in tho sum ol $25,000. His stealings, it is ascertained, amount to the sum of $200,000. The law, we believe, terms his proceedings “embezzlement,” and the press gingerly calls it “defalcation.” Had he been a low-bred, poorly-associated, moneyless scamp, and stolen ahorse, he would not have been allowed bail at all, or if granted it would have been in eight times the amount stolen, instead of only one-eighth. <• Dimes amt ilolUrK, and dollars aud dimes. An unjity jssskcti the worst of crimes;” j As we have stated, Garland tool: flight in a 1 schooner which sailed from New Orleans, but i was overtaken and brought back to the city. I The Captain of t lie schooner has also been held to bail on a charge of being cognizant of his crime and aiding him to escape, and the ves sel has been seized. Garland, wc suppose, will be imprisoned for a few mouths for the crime (unless ho pays up tlie bail-money and absconds); and should it be proved that any poor devil “without friends” carried his trunks or otherwise knowingly aided his flight, he will be sent to the Penitentiary for half a lifetime. *• The law is the perfection of human wisdom.” Another Leap Year Movement. A GUI was last week introduced into the Kentucky Legislature, imposing a tax of $0 on each SI,OOO worth of property owned by all old bachelors in th ■ State over thirty years of ago, to be applied to the education of the rising generation. This proposition to tax men to pay for the education of other people’s children is about as cool a proceeding as wc have heard of lately. We arc bound to regard it as originating in envy and prompted by the audacity peculiar to leap year. Should it succeed, we suppose the next step will be to mulct the unyoked male community in a further heavy sum to pay for the silks and satins, the jewelry and flowers, and even the enormous hoops of the married ladies, it was ordained of old, because of the transgressions of the first married pair, all the pleasures and enjoy ments of life should he mingled with penance and punishment, and perhaps it is impossible for bachelors to evade this law by remaining in a state of “sing e blessedness.” If the bill passes, the old bachelars of Kentucky will have to take choice of two taxes. Wc find the following in the Wilmington, N. C., < Commercial: Wilmington, March, 4, 1850. Mr. Loving—Dear Sir: By this morning’s package of German newspapers, published in my birth place, 1 find a positive statement that tlic notorious Robert Schuyler lives iu the town of Brugge, in the principality of Rmlolstade, Germany. There has been some two months ago, a report in this country of his death, at his villa near Florence, which seems now to be a real hoax. Yours truly, 11. L. Sciikeineb. Steamer South Carolina, Chas. Fry, master, arrived here on tlic morning of 25th inst., with a cargo of 1,280 bales cotton. This is the largest cargo of the season, and our friend •OLiarlio’ has fairly beaten ‘Tom.’ Try it again ‘Tom,’ ‘Charlie’ is ‘after you with a sharp stick.’ Berry good boat the Ben Frank lin, and wc don’t Mehin to Tampa much with her, but wc must tell you, ‘Tom,’ tlic ‘Old Nullifier’lias got you this time, and if you don’t beat her, there'll be ‘other fish to Fry.’ —Apalachicola Adv. The South Carolina has already carried into Apalachicola, this season, 15,320 bales of cot ton. This tells well for the popularity of her courteous officers. Tho Reports on Kansas. A synopsis of the report made by the Free soil majority of the Committee on Elections, on the Whitfield and Reeder contested election case, has reached us; and as the question is likely to be an exciting one in the present Congross and throughout the country, we copy the synopsis, which wc find in the Charleston Standard. When we receive Mr. Stephens’ minority report, we will also copy or condense it. The majority report was signed by Wash burn, the chairman of the committee, and the other Froesoilors, and tlic following is its sub stance : It starts out by representing that the alle gation on the part of Gov. Reeder is, that the Legislature which passed the election law, un der the provisions of which Gen. Whitfield was chosen, was imposed upon the people of the Territory by a foreign invading force, who seized upon the government and have exercised it ever since, aud that the people there are in a subjugated stutc. It then discusses at length the following questions: Ist. The necessity of having ail investiga tion of the facts in dispute. 2d. The effect of the act of Gov. Reeder in issuing certificates of election, to a portion of the Legislature. 3d. Whether the evidence to establish tho facts can be had satisfactorily by depositions. Upon the first, it is urged that the state of atlairs here has excited the feelings of tlic whole people of the Union—that it is the theme of a I'residcutinl Message and proclamation, and that sovereign States in different portions of the Union have considered the propriety of an interference by men and arms—that the question 10 be settled is whether military pow er has seized upon the territory and governs it by a strong hand—that this question in volves the existence of self-government and cannot be settled by groping among assertions and denials, but only by facts proven. Upon the second point it contends that the people of the Territory cannot be prejudiced by what Governor Reeder did as Governor— that the people are now contesting the seat through him—and that if it was not so, still Congress could aud should investigate it, if a reasonable doubt exists as to the right of Gen. Whitfield to a seat. Upon the third point it argues a commission to tnke depositions would be fruitless—that the President regards tho presence of the army there as necessary to preserve peace, and the execution of the commission would bring the belligerent parties face to face anil incite to hostilities : that it would be equivalent to an effort to obtain testimony on a battlefield, and that the commissioners would be powerless to preserve peace. In the course of the argument, the commit tee allude to the fact that, ordinarily iu despot isms their subjects enjoy some degree of peace and quiet; while in Kansas the settlers arc not only alleged to be reduced to a state of vassalage to a foreign power, but that per sonal safety is unknown, and murder aud out rage arc said to be the almost daily record of its history. We copy from the Official llepor of the City Council tho security offered by Patten aud Mustiun and accepted y the City Cou - cil. State of Georgia, 1 This Indenture, Muscogee County. / made this the 25th day of February, in the year of our Lord, 1850, between Richard l’utten and John L.

The Senate passed the fortifications bill. Mr. Brown introduced a bill for a railroad to the Pacific, to be built from a point South of latitude 37. It grants about forty million acres to the company, at fifty cents per acre, the company to deposit $500,000 as security for the fai.hful performance of the work, be fore obtaining a title. One hundred miles must be completed in eighteen mouths. The Government to pay SOOO per mile for carrying the mail until the road is finished, and for ten years thereafter. The road is to be forfeited if not finished in ten years. The right of way covers a width of four hundred yards. The House passed the Military Academy and the Invalid Pension bills. Mr. Stephens, from the minority of the Com mittee 011 Elections, made a report, containing an able argument in favor of sending Commis sioners to Kansas to take and positions in the contested election case. The subject was de bated. Washington, March 7. The Senate was not in session to-day. The House discussed the Kansas election case and adjourned to Monday. The Gulf Road. Our young friend, Milner, (by the way, one of the finest practical engineers in the coun try,) was in town a few days since, aud gave us some little information touching the pros pects of the “Pensacola Connection.” Mr. Milner is the son of Mr. Milner of the firm that has taken the contract for the grading from Pensacola to the Alabama line. The company will commence operations very soon and push them with all their energy. The gap from the State line to the point at which the contracts now existing terminate, is about 70 miles in length. Os this, the younger Mr. Milner informs us, twenty-five miles can be graded at an expense not exceeding SI,OOO per mile. The next ten miles will probably cost $5,000 per mile; and the remaining 35 will average about SO,OOO, per mile. The planters in Conecuh county arc likely, wc learn, to grade the road through their county, taking their pay in stock. Mr. Milner has little doubt that this arrangement will be effected. If so, it will accomplish t e grading of about 28 of the 70 miles as j ? ct unprovided for. Mr. Milner is very familiar with the topogra phy of the whole route and has great confidence in the early completion of the work. Things are certainly tending in that direction very strongly; and we do hope that our Mobile friends will early and practically move in the matter of their connection. It would be mor tifying, if a railway directly connected us with a port in another State before such a connec tion is accomplished as to our own seaport. All this ought to wake up our people, to the necessity of the much talked-of Coal Road. — Our Gulf connections, though beneficial, will not “make us,” except with the aid of a line to tap the bowels of the mountains, above. More Indian Murders in Florida. Correspondence of tbo Charleston Courier. Fort Myers, Fla., Feb. 26, 1856. Gents :—We have to record another massa cre by the Indians. A Mr. Hudson, a resident of this post, accompanied by his negro, Sam, left here some 15 days since for the ojster banks, in Charlotte harbor, with the intention of gathering a load of oysters for this place.— Tlieir prolonged stay excited suspicion that some accident had befallen them, and conse quently on Saturday last Capt. dispatched an armed boat party in search of them. They proceeded to the bank and found their vessel, a schooner, of 20 tons burden, dismantled of her sails, and the dead bodies of Hudson and his negro on deck horribly mutilated; near by another boat, burnt to the water's edge, was discovered, and on shore the body of an oyster man named Martin, was discovered in the same condition of the other two. The volunteers have taken the field, but as yet have accomplished nothing The country is inundated with water, which prevents the regular U. 8. troops from taking the field ; in fact the number here is totally insufficient to cveukeeppossession of the posts already established. The editor of the Democrat says that nobody believes us when we speak the truth. He has no means of knowing whether any one would not believe him if he spoke the truth.
