COLUMBUS: Wednmdny Morning, March 1 1 ■". liAIUJKST CITY CIRCULATION. A private dbpatch received from Savannah last night, says: “ Nothing done furtwo days. Sales to-day fifty hales. No shipping Columbus llacos. The first day's race over the Chattahoochee Coarse near this city, being for three year old stakes, 2 mile heats, $250 entrance, came off yesterd yat the appointed hour. Os the ten entries made, seven paid forfeits. Frank Al len, Moidore and Gov. Johnson, contested for the stakes, which were won, we understand, with euse by Frank Allen, lie leading both heats. Time >l:42 —3:485. ♦ The City Court of Columbus. We find in the last Macon Telegraph the uot passed by our last Legislature establishing Criminal Courts in Columbus and Macon.— The act provides that on the “id Monday in April next, and every four years thereafter on the same day, the citizens of Columbus quali fied to vote for city officers shall elect a Judge and a Status Attorney or Solicitor for the Criminal Court of the city; the Judge to be a resident of Columbus. The Court is to have jurisdiction over “all minor offences committed within the corporate limits of the city of Co lumbus, and which do not subject the offender or offenders to the loss of life, limb or mem ber, or to confinement in the Penitentiary.” The terms of this Court are to be held the ■id Mondays in February, May, August ’ November, and at sueli other times ■■ ; Judge may order and designate. The salary of the Judge to be fixed by the Council, and payable out of the city treasury. The Solici tor is to receive specified fees. The Clerk of the City Council is to be also the Clerk of the Criminal Court, and is to receive for his servi ces the same fees as those now allowed to the Clerks of the Superior Courts. The Marshal and Deputy Marshal of Columbus to act as Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff to this Court, and to receive the same fees as are now by law al lowed to the county Sheriffs. “Confusion Worse Confounded.” The interminable question of the sale of the city’s Muscogee Railroad stock was again up before the Council on Monday evening. Im mediately after the reading of the minutes of the previous meeting, Aid. Thompson, one of the majority favoring the carrying out of the con tract with Patten and Mustian, moved an ad journment. This was done because of the ab sence of one of the Aldermen, and in view of the Mayor’s decision that the question must lio decided by a full Hoard. The adjournment was carried by the votes of flic Aldermen sus taining the contract. As the citizens—many of whom had attend ed to witness the action of the Council—were dispersing, Gen. Semiuos called a citizens’ meeting to consider the question, and at his request tlie Mayor took the chair and deliver ed his views of the state of the question. lie concluded by introducing the City Attorney, who read a written opinion, maintaining that the whole proceedings of the Councils were informal and illegal, and that no valid con tract had been made. Mr. Echols moved a resolution that tho meeting request tin* City Council to submit tlie question to tho citizens °t Columbus for their decision. Subsequent ly, on tho intimation of the chairman that the Council might decline to comply with this re quest, Mr. Quin offered another resolution au thorizing the chairman to call a meeting ol‘ the citizens, which was also passed. After some indignant remarks by Mr. Estes, the meet ing-adjourned, subject, we suppose, to the call of the chairman, Mayor Wilkins. Major Buford’s Enterprise. The Clayton and Eufaula papers give most cheering accounts of tho liberal spirit with which the people of Barbour county, \la., arc sustaining Maj. Buford’s Kansas emigration project. At a meeting held in Clayton on Thursday last, after a speech from Alpheus Baker, Esq., about SI3OO was subscribed by tlie citizens present: nine gentlemen giving sloooacli. Innnotherpart of tho county, Col. Edward S. Ottgave the balance on hand of bis cotton crop, fourteen bales, to aid tho enter prise. Quite a number of gentlemen in other counties havo sent Maj. Buford SIOO or s,’>o each. A meeting was to havo been lu-ld in F.ufaula ou Monday night, and we run no risk in saying that the “handsome thing” was done on that occasion by that spirited community. There can now be no danger of a failure of the enterprise, and those who intend to join the expedition should meet Mnj. Buford at Eufau la, Columbus, or Montgomery, by the time specified in his late appeal. We believe the 2d of April is the day fixed for the rendezvous in this city. Good Authority. The Washington correspondent of the Char leston Standard writes as follows, in his letter of the titli inst. : “ The foroigu mails arrived last evening at the State Department, and 1 understand they contained some important dispatches for the Government from London. It may be they contain the information that Mr. Crumpton has been ro-called—if not, 1 can assure you, upon the most reliable authority, that he will he ; lUrmisaed by President Pierce. It is the opinion ot Mr. Murry that tlie Walker government in Nicaragua will soon settle the Central Ameri can questions now in dispute between this | Government and Great Britain, and it is strong ly suspected that the reported difficulty be tween General Walker and Col. Kinney is all a ruse to effect ulterior purposes. This is the only rational solution of it. Otherwise, it was uncalled for, unnatural, and impolitic on the part of General Walker and his government.’’ On the Bth, he writes : “Every thing appears quiet about the State j Department, Mr. Marcy is awaiting a reply j to his last despatch asking Crampton’s recall, j If not complied with, his dismissal is certain. I This, however, will not nceessnrily affect the i friendly relations now existing between tin two governments.” ■ l ■ PARTY views and movements. .Sol i'll CvnoLlNA.—lit accordance with a call made by a portion of the politicians of this State (of whom Mr. On- is regarded as the leader), meetings were last week held in many of the districts to act upon tlie mooted and disputed question of sending delegates to the Cincinnati Convention. Very little interest in the question appears to have been manifested, and most of the meetings were thinly attended. Borne of them rejected the proposition to send delegates to a preliminary .State Convention ; , others appointed them by a majority upon di ! vision; and in others no opposition was made to the movement. We believe that the papers I representing each division claim that the re j suits susta u their view of the question. Be that as it may, tlie State will now be repre : rented, and it is understood that tlie delegates will favor tlie re-nomination of President Pierce. Massaciii sktis. —The American State Coun | eilof Massachusetts met in Boston on Tuesday |of last week. There was much bitter recrimi | nation between the National and the Wilson , factions of the order. Finally, resolutions were adopted pledging the American party of the State to tlie support of the Springfield platform, and refusing to sustain Fillmore and Donelson until it was unmistakably ascertain ed that they heartily endorse American princi ples. Pennsvi.vania.—The Pennsylvania State Democratic Convention, which met at Ilarris bu g oil Thursday last, appointed delegates favorable to Mr. Buchanan to represent the State in tlie Cincinnati Democratic Convention. The vote stood, for Buchanan 120, for Dallas 5. Resolutions in favor of the preservation of the Union as it is, deprecating the agitation of the slavery question, sustaining the Kansas- Nehraska bill, &c., were passed. Municii-ai. Elections have recently occured in Alexandria, D. C., and New Bedford, Mass. In the former city, the whole Know Nothing ticket was elected, with very little opposition ; while in the latter, the Citizens triumphed over the Americans by a small majority. The vote was about the largest ever polled in that city. ♦ “A company of five fugitive slaves passed through our city yesterday morning in a great hurry to reach Canada. As they go on the cars of the underground it is presumed they will meet with no obstruction. Some idea of the extent of tlie emigration northward may be had from tlie fact that this last company brings up the number of fugitives who have passed through this city on the underground within three months to one hundred and forty eight persons.” We cut the above from the Cincinnati Sun ot the nth inst. It is a very cool announce ment of the fact that the people of Cincinnati alone have connived at and encouraged the plunder of Kentuckians to the amount of not less than $125,000in three months ! If Ken tucky sutlers thus severely by the operations and management of ono town alone on her exten sive northern •boundary, what must he the ex tent ol her loss along the whole lino that sep arates her from Ohio, Indiana and Illinois?— It cannot reasonably be estimated at less than one million of dollars per annum 1 Yet, should Kentucky, in return, seize property of the citizens ot those States to indemnity tier for their rascality, the act would everywhere he denounced as unconstitutional, outrageous and revolutionary. Probably Federal authority would he called in to restrain or right it.— This illustrates the difference in tlie degree of protection extended to Northern and Southern property by the action of tlie Government, and, to our mind, proves that tlie Southern States will have to discard their constitutional scruples and protect themselves by taxes or reprisals on Northern property—else they w ill id ways he tho outraged and plundered portion ot the Confederacy, and the supporters of neighboring communities that thrive by the r connection and yet abuse it by theft and ra pacity. Let them take the remedy into their own hands, and, adopting the only recourse left them resolve to Spoil the spoiler as they may. Amt from the robber rentl his prey.* 5 — Tlie Cincinnati papers report that the reeen fugitive slave case in that city cos’the Gov ernment of the United States $22,000. The legal proceedings, and the employment of a very large number of deputy marshals, ren dered necessary by the popular disposition manilested to rescue the prisoners, involved this largo*ninouut. Tht-South, being the section ol the Union that.consumes most of the imports from which the revenue is derived, has to con tribute the larger portion of this and all other sums required to enforce law in Northern States. - - - -♦ y Recently, John Sadlier, a member of the British Parliament, committed suicide by tak ing oil ot almonds, and was found dead on llaiustciul Heath. The cause was, his perpe tration ot immense frauds, which were about to be brought to light. It is now reported, as a part of the intelligence by the Africa, that his frauds amounted to the enormous sum of 1,000,000 of pounds sterling ($5,000,000)! +. _ A Miscreant Properly Punished. An individual, whose name we have forgot ten, nor do we care ever again to remember it, was convicted at the last term of tlie Campbell : Superior Court for placing an obstruction on i ft® Atlanta \ LaGraugo Railroad, and senten ced by the Judge to the Penitentiary for the full term of eight years. Ibis, we believe, is the first conviction for the same offence which has yet been made in the State. Ilis Honor was justly severe, uuJ i he remarked that had the law allowed of liis : sentencing the prisoner for eight times eight years, he would unhesitatingly have done it.— I Atlanta Intelligencer. ■ ■ 1 ♦ W e learn that a Post Office lias been recent- I lv established at the house of Mr. Jonathan !

A Connecticut paper says that there are twelve churches in a certain county in that State without ministers, the preachers having gone into the Kansas land speculation.

The New York Herald, of Thursday, suys : “ We publish elsewhere two remarkable ar ticles, translated from Lo Nord, the Russian organ at Brussels, which enters into a length ened explanation of the motives of Russia in commencing the present war, and those by which she is now influenced in desiring to conclude a peace. The writer shows that the • war was a necessity impo ed upon the Empe ror Nicholas, by the very character and senti ments of his people, which irresistibly impel led them to undertake this crusade in favor of ; their co-religionists in the East. Ho contends that a passion for conquest is not a defect which can fairly he charged to the Sclavonic 1 race, and that such was certainly not the mo tive that led to the Turkish war. A sense of 1 duty and of duty alone, which would have j urged them to the same course in the case of i other oppressed Christians, was the influence ■ by which both monarch and people were actua -1 ted. The protection of the Eastern Christians being guaranteed by the action of the Europe an Bowers, the object which they had at heart is attained. Under those circumstances, the Emperor Alexander evinces sound judgment and a wise appreciation of the real interests of his people in hastening to respond to the universal feelings of Europe, by putting an end to unnecessary bloodshed. The government of Russia had done sufficient to gratify the generous instincts of its pooplc, and it would now gain more by proving to the world the injustice of flic prejudice which attributed to it designs of conquost than by persevering in a struggle injurious to the general interests of humanity. Such is tlie reasoning of the Czar’s official organ. It sincerity will, of course, lie judged of differently by those whose nation ality is interested in the question. It must, however, be acknowledged that it is consistent with the arguments originally put forth by the Emperor Nicholas in justification of his con duct.” The Kingdom of Oude in the Lion’s Mouth. “The Kingdom of Oude will be either se questered or annexed to tlie possessions of Great Britain.” Such is the late-t tidings from India. A few months ago England was said to be in a dilemma on this subject. Tlie most solemn treaties were in existence between the Hindoo princess and the Cabinet of St. James, guaranteeing tlie independence of Oude; and a large cession of territory and tlie sacri fice of certain valued rights had been made to ensure the same. How then was England, with decency, to seize the land she coveted, without forfeiting her honor ? Excuses arc never wanting, and one was found to suit the occasion. Good faith cannot be keptwith bad men, is the plea setup by England. The King of Oude is a very atrocious character, it seems, and hismisgovernment causes the mise ry of millions throughout some of the fairest provinces of llindoston. Therefore, philan thropy—of course anything but cupidity—gets the better of honor; and treaties are coolly violated in order that Oude may be annexed to British India. “ The King of Oude,” says the Bombay Times, “is to ho allowed .£IOO,OOO a year : his army is to be reduced from 80,000 to 15,000, and the entire administration of affairs to lie entrusted to the Resident General.” The idea of this Eastern potentate having caused the misery of millions of his subjects, would lead one to in fer that lie had imitated rather too closely the government of Great Britain ; and we are en couraged in this view of the case by a writer in the Edinburgh Review, who tells that liine tentlis of the inhabitants of Oude are in tlie position of the cottiers of Ireland—a sad lot, truly, but one not likely to be improved by their change of masters. The one hundred and fifty millions of people, at present under the rule of Englishmen in India, are worse treated than any others on the face of the globe. They are deprived, in many cases, of their religious rites; they arc over-worked, miserably fed and clad, and put to such tor tures to extort tribute money from them, that a grand inquisitor of Rome or Spain, in days gone by, would have shrunk back with disgust from witnessing. And yet with these millions of people under their sway, and this land of boundless riches in their grasp, such is the luisgovornmcnt of the East India Company, that British India docs not pay expenses.— The love of aggrandizement then must be the chief motive which urges England to this wan ton breach of faith ; or was it that the poor King of Oude was too pro-Russia in his sym pathies to please his emperious neighbors.”— Avgusta Chron. + Sevastopol not Fallen! Tlie following is an extract from a speech of Lord Derby: Within that time information of that fact, so far as it is a fact—because unhappily it is not a fact—[laughter*]—might be derived from the columns of any newspaper. Unhappily it is uot a fact. “ Sevastopol, tlie great strong hold of Russia in tlie Black Sea,” lias not yielded to your valor and to your daring, whatever that valor and daring may have been. It is true, that by unparalleled achievements, you have succeeded in forcing a portion of that stronghold. You have obtained posses sion of tlie Southern side of Sevastopol. You have destroyed the fleet of Russia—or, at least she lias destroyed them herself, and has saved you the trouble. [“ Hear,” and a laugh.] You have blown up, or you arc blowing up, those splendid docks which were miracles of art, of perseverance and of skill, but “the great stronghold of Russia” still holds you at defiance. In front of that stronghold, upon the northern coast, boleagured rather than belcnguring, lie your armies at this mo ment, while your fleets are floating at a res pectful distance from that stronghold whicli you declare lias yielded to the persevering constancy and to the daring bravery of the Allied forces. Although, therefore, 1 am I ready to congratulate her Majesty, as we are ! invited to do, upon the success which has been ! attained, I must yet say that the first para- j graph of the speech contains an erroneous j statement, and that the great stronghold of 1 Russia has not yielded to the daring and valor ! of your troops, however great that daring and ; valor may have been. [Hear, hear.] Strange Decision. flic Supreme Court of Indiana has recently decided that the2Bth and 29th days of Februa- i ry, in leap year, are to be counted as one day, and a note falling due on the 28th, cannot be 1 protested for non-payment till after the bank- ; ing hours on the 29th. Destructive Fire in New Orleans. New Orleans, March. 7.— The Lower Cot ton Press in this city has been destroyed by ! fire, involving a loss of $180,(X*0, part of i which amount, only’, was insured. Most Laughable Incident. A NEW I’ll ASK Ol TUB “ HOUSE QUESTION.” A most laughable story istoldby an English correspondent of tho New York Sunday Times, of what occurred a short time since on one of the railways running out of London. We thought that we were once witnesses and par ticipants of a droll adventure on one of the New York railroads, when a lot of hungry and blood thirsty Hungarian leeches, getting loose from ajar in which they were confined, spread themselves promiscuously over the lower limbs of the passengers, and commenced feeding to tho great surprise and consternation of all ; but the English story is far more ludicrous, and we intend spinning it out a little in our own way. It seems that in a four-passenger car on the London railroad there were two travelers on the occasion in question. One was a civil, quiet, modest, well-behaved gentleman: the other, who sat opposite him, was a lady, “fat, fair and forty,” who was also of modest mien and conduct. The train had hardly commenc ed moving, when the lady suddenly jumped up, aud, with a crimson flush on her counten ance, exclaimed, “ llow dare you ?” “ Dare what!” said tlie gentleman in astou in cut. ■ “ Insult me in that mannercontinued the lady, still swelling with indignation. “ lam not aware that I have insulted you in any way, form or manner retorted the gentleman, innocence and enquiry’ depicted in every lineament of his countenance. “ Well, don’t touch me again,” continued the lady ; “if you do, I’ll call the guard.” The gentleman sat marvelling, but silent, wondering what strange conceit bad got into his fellow traveler’s head, when suddenly she sprang up the second time, and in a fresh burst of indignation broke out with, “ I’ll not stand such impertinence and in sults. I’m a decent married woman, and your conduct is insufferable.” “ But, my dear madam, what upon earth has got into your head ? What do you mean ?” “ 1 mean that 1 will not be insulted. You mistake my character, sir, if you think I’ll put up with such impudence You’re an imperti nent good for nothing puppy, that’s what you arc and with flashing eye she resumed her seat. The gentleman was still wandering at tlie strange conduct of the lady, totally unconscious that he had given her the least cause of of fence, when she suddenly started np a third time with theejaculation, “ Keep your hands to yourself! If my hus band was here he’d pitch you out of the win dow. I’ll have you arrested the moment the cars stop. Keep your hands off, I say !” “ What hands ? what do you mean? You talk like a crazy woman, and 1 believe you are insane,” was the response of the bewildered gentleman. “ Let go of my legs !” broke out the lady, jumping up again, and this time in a perfect frenzy of passion. “ 1 don’t know anything about your legs— never touched them in my life—never want to touch them. l r ou’re as crazy as Bedlam — you re a candidate for the first lunatic asylum on the road—and I’ll have you arrested the moment tlie cars stop,” put in the gentleman, with honest indignation. “ And I’ll have you arrested for taking im pudent liberties with me,” responded the lady; a a equal amount of virtuous excitement mani fest in her countenance. In five minutes more the train stopped, there was a violent letting down of windows in the car occupied by the two enraged passengers, ’ and a loud duet of cries or shouts of “conduc tor,” “guard,” “anybody,” “everybody,” “this way!” followed from the twain. “ Wliat’s the matter ?” queried the anxious conductor, as he poked his head into the car, in haste. “ This woman is as crazy as a loon—mad as a March hare—take her out!” said the gen tleman. “ And this man lias been pinching ray legs all the way from London, the impudent scamp !” retorted the lady, glaring furiously in his face. A quiet smile came over the face of the con ductor as lie remarked that he thought he could explain the matter at issue ! And reach ing his hand under the lady’s scat, he drew out a live goose which he had placed there a few moments before the train started, not sup posing that the car would be occupied. The legs of the aquatic fowl had been tied all the while, but he had free use of his head and bill, and had been amusing himself by pecking away at the lower limbs of the lady. We think that this may be well called anew phase, if not a settler, of the vexed “goose question.” Spontaneous Combustion. Benson Blake, Esq., informed us yesterday, says the Vicksburg Whig of the 26th, that the tire bursted out of the centre of a pile of cot ton seed that lay by the side of his gin house, on his plantation on the Yazoo river, a few days since. The cotton seed had been expos cd to the weather all winter, and lie had com menced hauling it away, when the fire broke out of the centre of the pile. After it was ex tinguished, on examination it was found char- j red to a considerable depth, and bore the ap- ] pcarauce of having been smothered in for some time. Mr. Blake assures us there can be no 1 doubt of the lire originating from the heat of the seed. No doubt this is the cause of many gins burning down, and wc would advise all who have piles of cotton seed ly’iugabout their gins to haul it out forthwith. By the last treaty between the Government aud the Seminole Indians, aswc learn from the Floridian & Journal, the latter were confined to that portion of the country’ lying south of the Caloosahacthee. That vast region is to this day as much a terra incognita even to Floridians as it was when the Europeans first landed on its sandy shores. Tradition, however, repre sents it as a perfect ElDorado, containing j large bodies ot’ land capable of the highest cul- j tivation, and abounding in natural orange groves, lemons, banana, and other tropical fruits. Near tlie southern extremity of the State, and bordering on the everglades, is the Big Cypress Swamp, which is said to be t e present home of the Indians. Their number is said to be about 450. Heavy Failure. The L;uisville Times states that Capt. Cas- I sius M. Clay has failed to a very large amount. | Capt. Clay has been a large speculator in hogs for several years, and the recent decline in hog products is attributed to his failure. His j brother Brutus J. Clay and M. O. Johnson are the assignees. Highest Price of the Season. A crop of 147 bales of cotton made by Wm. i West, of Stewart county, (la., was sold in this place on the sth inst., at 10 11-ltlc., being the highest price that any crop has sold for this season on the Chattahoochee river. —Eufaulti !
