C OLUMBUB: Wrdnmda)’ Morning, Mnreli H* I.AHUEXT CITV CIRCULATION. Sale of Lots in Brunswick We observe that the proprietors of th* “< ity of Brunswick,” Gn., thinking the present a favorable opportunity to dispose of their property, advertise that they will sell 300 buil ,|im; lots at public auction in the town, on tho loth of May next. We, mention this sale for the benefit of such as may be inclined to make investments on the strength of the really promising prospects of Brunswick as a com mercial seaport. ■ - More Goa at Washington. We speak not figuratively, for Washington is abundantly supplied with the description of gas usually alluded to in that sense. But Mr. Menchant, from the committee on the Dis triot, has reported a hill incorporating anew (las Light Company of Washington and George town. The Organ says that this company propose to supply gas at $3 per 1000 cubic feet, instead of $4, the price charged by the present company. That paper further says that the consumption of gas at Washington is very great “in consequence of the large amount required hy Government. ‘1 he whole country is interested in a roductionof the cost of gasat Washington, audwcthcrotorehopc that die hill will lie passed. There arc other cities that we wot of, whoso consumption of gas is also considerable, without aid from Govern ment officials, and we wish that they too could get the article cheaper and better. The Charleston News contains a notice of the arrest in that city, on Friday night, of Calvin Lewis, an escaped convict from the Penitentiary at Milledgovillc, who wus some time since sent there for robbing the Georgia Railroad Depot at Augusta. ♦ The Governor of Ohio has demanded of the Governor of Kentucky the surrender of the negro woman charged with the murder ot her child in Cincinnati, to be tried for that offence according to the laws of Ohio; and Col. Gaines, the owner of the woman, lias placed her at the disposal of the Governor of Kentucky to meet the requisition. The fugitive slave law having been vindicated and upheld in this case, though at an immense cost, tlie slave will no doubt bo surrendered to the Executive of Ohio as a fugitive from justice. Now let us sec whether the Governor and people of Ohio will act with liko good faith and fidelity to the con titution, the next time a fugitive slave is de manded of them by the Executive of Kentucky. The Charleston awl Memphis Railroad is now finished to Tuscumbia, Ala., and between Tuscumbia and Memphis the work is far ad vanced, the Memphis end having been in ac tive operation for sevoral months. It. is stated that the Freosoil Legislature of Kansas, now in session at Lawrence, will elect two Senators to the Congress of the United St ates, and will proceed to adopt a code of laws for the State. The New York papers report that though the fragments of cabin furniture seen upon the ice by the Edinburg corresponded with the fixtures of the Pacific, they were such ns are to be found also on many passenger packots, and therefore may have belonged to some other vessel than the Pacific. -—,—♦- • Theatrical. The New Orleans Picayune contains the fol lowing paragraph : Mil. W. 11. Ciusi*. —The Gaiety theatre has been leased by this excellent actor and experi enced manager, and will commence anew sea ion on Wednesday or Thursday of this week, lie is determined t > conduct the Gaiety with vigor, and produce novelty after novelty, with a strong and talented company, who are now on their way to this city. Mr. and Mrs. Crisp, both admirable actors, Miss Reedor, a beautiful lady and accomplish ed actress, Mr. Chippendale, an excellent low comedian, Mr. James S. Browne, the favorite comedian, Mr. W. F. Johnson, now of the com pany, Mrs. Place, Mr. Thayer and others, are in form the frontiel of the theatre, which will doubtless make a prosperous close of the sea son. - ♦ Cigars. The Havana correspondent of the New Orle ans Delta, writing outlie Bth inst., and speak ng of the Cuban “Balania,” or commercial luminary, for 1854. which had only then been published, says: “ The number of cigars stated in the llaliui /.a to have been exported from the whole island in 1854 is 251,8155,000, which are valued at 81,180,578 87.1. “ 1 have a pretty intimate personal knowl edge of the cigar trade, and substantially state my belief that the lowest average value that can he put upon the cigars exported from this city is sls per M., whilst the price current for 1851 very reliable authority) places the number of cigars exported from this city alone in that year, at nearly 204,000,000, and 1 be lieve the same rule would apply to almost ev ery article exported. Then there are millions of cigars of which no entry is made at the Custom House, to avoid the 75 cents per thousand, export duty. “It will scarcely answer for mu to let the public into all the little secrets of our trade in cigars, but l positively attirni that not one tenth of the things retailed in the United States as Havana cigars have heen manufac tured in this city.*’ The Mule Market. A correspondent of the Louisville Courier, writing from Paris, Kentucky, Ith of March, says: “ S. M. llibler, cue of the light auctioneers, reports about 1,800 mules offered. He sold near 700 head for $60,000 : 42 head of mules, three years old this spring, sold at $l3B per head; 54 head at $l2O, others at S9O, SBO. etc.; 82 head of two year olds at $108; 25 head at $99, etc.; 55 head of colts at sll7 ; others SBO, S6O, etc. Stock cattle brought s‘B4, $27, S2O, sl2. Horses sold from $225 to S2O. Capt. Leer, of Bourbon county, sold his famous old jack “Buena Vista” to Messrs. Chenault Cos., of Madisoncounty, f0r53,200. In his younger days he rated at $7,000. He lias mado the Captain a little fortune. Infe rior jacks sold at S7OO, S4OO, $l3O, etc. Stal lions went a begging. party views and movements. Riiodk 1 si, a mi.— Both the Know Nothing and the Black Republican Conventions ot Rhode Island have nominated G. W. Hoppin for re-election. They split, however, in refer ence to a portion of the State ticket, and euch has its own candidate for Lieut. Governor and Treasurer. The New York Daily News con tradicts the report that the delegates from Rhode Island to the Cincinnati Democratic Convention are in favor of the nomination ol Pieroe. Judge Dot glas. —l he friends of this gen tleman deny that he will refuse to accept a nomination by the Democratic National < on ventiou, and intimate that he will be support ed in that ho ly as the Democratic candidate for the Presidency. Thk New Youk Hums. —The New York Daily News (Hunker organ) says: “It the admission of the Hard delegation from this State to the Cincinnati Convention depen ded upon the votes of those delegates trom other States already elected, there would be a majority of probably two to one, so far as we can learn, in their favor.” The News says that at the last fall election in New York 50,- 000 or 75,000 Hards were “in the Know Noth- I iug cauip,” hut that they will not stay there if a nomination “tit to be made is made at Cin cinnati. It and its party do not consider the re-nomination of President Pierce as a nomi nation “fit to be made.” It says : “No Frank Pierce, no man connected with him, no man likely to repeat his errors, confide in his friends, or perpetuate his policy as to the State, can expect to draw back these Hard Know Noth ings to their allegiance.” The Savannah Republican (Know Nothing) charges that the Journal and the News of that city, neutral or independent papers, are in reality “masked batteries” to open and keep up a tire on the American nominees. The News denies this, and re-asserts its independent character. The Journal repeats that it never professed neutrality, though it has little liking for party controversies or contests. It reiter ates the editor’s announcement in his prospec tus_: “ Those who know him will not, and others must not be surprised to tind the paper an advocate of Democratic principles.” Nkw Jersey. —The Order of United Ameri cans in New Jersey disapprove of the nomina tion of Mr. Fillmore, and manifest dissatisfac tion at the conduct of the Know Nothings. The Georgia Citizen, late a Know Nothing paper, continues to ridicule Maj. Douelson's qualifications and fitness for the Vice Presi dency and to denounce his nomination. New Hampshire, as we have already men tioned, is one of the States in which the “straight-out Whigs” have made movements towards a re-organization of the old Whig par ty- We judge, however, from the returns of last week’s election so far received, that their candidate for Governor lias not polled three thousand votes in the entire State. The Republican State Convention of Con necticut met at Hartford last week, and nomi nated a full State ticket. Gideon Welles, of Hartford, is the candidate for Governor, and Henry B. Harrison, of New Haven, for Lieu tenant. The public mind is now somewhat alarmed about the steamer Arctic, which, under tlie command of Lt. Hartstene, was diapatched in search of tlie Pacific. Iler orders were to ex plore tlie most northerly track, and as her re turn before this time was anticipated, appre hension as to her safety is now aroused.— Some, however, indulge in hope that she lias found tlie Pacific in the ice, and not being able to extricate her at once, is lying by to aid her as soon us possible. ♦ Wo find the folowing in a report of the pro ceedings of the House of Representatives on the 14tli inst. Wc do not believe the charge made by Washburn, but notice lt for wliat it may be worth. If true, Reeder, the political friend of YVashburn, of course knows all about the matter : and why was he not called upon to substantiate it, if true ‘■ Mr. YVashburn, of Maine, argued in favor of the resolution empowering the Committee on Elections to send for persons and papers in the Kansas case, lie said that Governor Ree der was removed because he would not be a slave and tool of the President, who had offer ed him a mission to China or Great Britain if he would resign the Governorship of Kansas. Mr. Smith. 1 believe it to be a bold, unmit igated falsehood. It is unbecoming any mem ber to repeat such newspaper statements. Mr. Washburn. 1 believe every word ot it. There are gentlemen here who can speak for the Executive. Mr. Smith, of Virginia: Do I understand the gentleman to make such a charge ? Mr. YVashburn : 1 have seen it in tlie news papers—n correspondent made it and dared the YVoshiuton Union to deny it—l dare the gen tleman from Virginia to make such a denial. - Dreadful Catastrophe. Pnu.ADKi.i'iiia, March 16.—Tlic ferry boat front Jersey last night, while crossing the Del aware, took fire. Many jumped overboard, and JO were drowned. The boat was consumed. Undignified Proceedings in the U. S. Senate. YVashington, March 14. During the debate in tlie Senate to-day, be tween Douglas, Trumbull, Crittenden and Sumner, language of an extremely pointed and personal character was indulged in. Such vi tuperation has rarely been used in the Senate chamber on any previous occasion. Xo per sonal quarrel, however, is likely to result from it. Our merchants, says the Dallas (Texas) Her ald, are all abandoning Red River and Shreve port, and will, in future, ship their purchases via of tho Gulf to Galveston. Even if they should have to haul them from Houston it will cost them less than by the Red River route.— The last two years’ experience on Red river will add immensely to the trade of Galveston and Houston. Posthumous Birth. lhe Paris Sieele relates an extraordinary incident as haviug lately happened in the Rue de r aubourgh du Temples. Asa coffin, con taining the body of a woman who had just died at a house in the street, was being removed for interment, blood was seen to ooze from it. The bearers were ordered to stop, and the cof fin opened, when the cries of an infant, under the shroud, announced that the dead woman had given birth to a living male child 1 It was taken and consigned to the care of a nurse. The New liine of Telegraph. Mr. D. 11. Craig, agent of the Associated Press in New York, has addressed a letter to Don. Amos Kendall in relation to the improv ed line of telegraph recently patched up by Mr. Hughes. The line is already in operation a greater part of the way between New York and Washington, and according to Mr. ( raig, may speedily be expected to _ supersede the , House and Morse instrument from Halifax to New Orleans. Mr. Craig savs : If, in doing so, they should happen to deal a death blow to the unprincipled parties who have recently combined to swindle the Press and the public by extortionary tolls, they will receive, as they deserve, the thanks of every business community over which the wires may ! pass. I will state further, that, at the expiration of three years from this date, you will see a Hughes line extending from Halifax to New ’ Orleans, on the seaboard, and from New Y'ork j to Buffalo in this .State ; and 1 do not hesitate to add still further, that whenever and wherev er these lines go into operation, the House and Morse lines will be crushed out. No man of telegraphic experience, who has the least practical knowledge of the capabilities of the Hughes instrument, and who knows the par ties who own it, as well as the character of the parties and the worth of the systems it is designed to compete with, can anticipate any other result. <>n the other side of the contest, we shall have an inferior system worked with instruments and wires so dilapidated that they have been for years unreliable, in the hands of superannuated managers, without adequate means and without energy, and bent on per petuating old abuses—managers whose latter years have been passed in pecuniary squab bles among themselves, who have never har monized on any one point excepting ns to how they Could the most closely grind the nose of the public, and whose characters, moreover, arc weighed down by a mass of odium almost heavy enough to sink them even without com petion, while on the other there will be a vast ly improved system of telegraphing, with new and thorough built lines, managed by a few wealthy men of the highest social standing, of great energy of character and large practical experience in all business matters, and who are firmly resolved on a thorough reform in the telegraphic business throughout the coun try. In a conflict between two such parties, can any one doubt as to which side victory will incline ? Mr. Craig gives the following notice of the Hughes machine: The instrument known hy this name is the invention of a gentleman of Kentucky, whose name it bears, and is the result of many years labor spent in ingeniouspractical experiments. It may be called a Printing Press and a Tele graph Instrument combined, for it prints all its messages in large and plain Roman capitals. Its rate of speed is twenty-eight hundred to three thousand words per hour at each end of of a Line of any length—making an aggregate of from fifty-six hundred to six thousand words per hour over one wire. The Hughes instru ment demonstrates the practicability of send ing and receiving messages in opposite direc tions over tlic same wire at the same instant of time, with the utmost ease, regularity and reliability. It will consequently require but one wire and one operator, at any given point, to send and receive from four to six times the number of words that could be transmitted in tlie same period of time over two Morse wires by the aid of four operators. Another great advantage of this instrument over tlic Morse and House inventions, is this: It can be work ed on long circuits continuously and with the most perfect accuracy in all states of the at mosphere—neither rain, nor snow, nor mist, having the least perceptible effect upon it.— Thus, at seasons in which Morse and House instruments are utterly powerless, the Hughes machine will work as reliably as in tlic most favorable weather. There arc also satisfacto ry data for the assertion, that the Hughes ma chine will work more perfectly on a wire of one thousand miles in length than the House or Morse instrument will on a lino of but one hundred miles in length. The simplicity and durability of tho new machine will compare favorably with the Morse, and are vastly supe rior in those respects to the House invention. Several of the machines, intended for immedi ate use, arc now completed. They have been thoroughly tested on every point, by practical telegraphists, who declare unequivocally that they fully answer every expectation they had formed of them from the invention’s claims.— Those machines will soon he put into practi cal use upon the new line above referred to between this city and Philadelphia. YVe sincerely hope the new Company may ! accomplish all that Mr. Craig anticipates, and | wish them the most complete success. The Morse line, like all monopolies, is effete and corrupt, and seeks to make the public who use it, pay for its inefficient management.—.tn gnsta Sentinel. Congressional. The Free toilers suffered a defeat in the House of Representatives last Friday, which doubtless annoyed them not a little.* It was a motion for the previous question on the Kan sas election case. Tlie vote stood 78 ayes to 9t; nays. So that these gentlemen will have to hear a little more debate on tlie subject. Thus far, if the YVashington Star is to be believed, they have found the discussion non paying. (>f the result, so far, that paper says, it lias been to make it so plain that all now comprehend the fact, that the cause of those who dub themselves the Free State party of Kansas, lias nothing whatever but the perversion of truth and sheer pretensions to depend on.— Not a single item of proof of the truth of the allegations on which the power to send for persons and papers is asked lias been attempt ed to be adduced by any one es the many gentlemen who have advoca'ed the adoption of the resolution to that end. Its supporters, (adds the Star,) have lost ground woefully throughout the debate, be cause that has made it plain that their case is a mere budget of the sheerest false pretences. YY e have no idea that their resolution can pos ibly command the support of a majority of the House, though it is very probable that a com mission w ill be sent to Kansas to take testimo ny. Tho result of their journey will be more fully to expose the conspiracy and intrigues of tlie emigrant aid societies and the Abolitionists in the Territory to carry their points hy frauds, misrepresentations, and violence. —*• Mail Lost. Tlie Bt. Louis Republican states that it has been satisfactorily ascertained, that the mail for Boston, sent from that city on the 29th January last, never reached its destination, nor. has anything been heard of it. Two business houses of St. Louis are sufferers—one lor S3OO, aud another for s6oo—and the pre sumption is. that the mail was a very valuable one. Ihe I‘latte Y alley Railroad route to the Pa cific, in latitude 41, is just reported on by an engineer. Ihe proposed termini are Council Bluff,, on the Missouri, and Fort Reading, on the Sacramento; distance 1,800 miles, water and wood plenty, and 1,000 miles easy graded, and the balance more expensive The cost estimate is $140,000,000 TELEGRAPHIC. Telegraphed for the Daily Sun, New Or j.eans, March 17.—Sales to-day four thousand bales. Prices unchanged.— Strict Middlings [c. Receipts of two days twenty-six thousand bales. Arrival of the George Law. New York, March 15.—The steamship George Law has arrived at this port from As pinwall, with 51.250,000 in gold. A correspondent of the N. Y\ Herald says that a Commission of British and Nicaraguan Agents met at Grey town, and settled the Mos quito dispute, and that the treaty was on its way to England. The Central American Gov ernments had united against Walker, and hos tilities. it was anticipated, would shortly com mence. Several European Governments had issued instructions to their squadrons in the Atlantic anti Pacific inrelation to events there. Louisiana. From the last annual report of the auditor of public accounts of Louisiana, we learn that the population of that stateconsists of 575,922 persons; of whom 262,083 arc slaves, 23,013 free colored persons, and 299,026 free whites. The aggregate is ten thousand less than that shown by the last previous report, the only increase appearing in the free colored popula tion. The effect of the fatal epidemics which have been sweeping over Louisiana during the last few years with such unusual malignancy is here plainly visible. This fatality appears also to have materially retarded the agricultu ral development of tlie State, as wc learn from the Now Orleans Delta that the statistics of the present year show “an absolute falling off in several important productions.” During the year the State yielded 361,660 hogsheads of sugar, 614,376 barrels of molasses, 340,585 bales of cotton, and 0,915,730 bushels of corn. The area of cultivation has increased during the year 42,378 acres, the total under culture being 1,460,457 acres, of which 346,205 are devoted to sugar cane, 541,912 to cotton, 566,- 944 to corn, and 5,396 to rice. The aggregate assessed valuation of property in the State is §319,854,654, being an increase of §19,858,- 478 in n year, and the total amount of taxes assessed is §1,609,475, an increase of $580,- 568. The total number of acres of uncultiva ted land subject to taxation is set down at 3,970,520; but this the Delta thinks must be a misprint, as the same last year was set down at 5,420,254 acres. The number of educated youth is given at 68,098. Canada. The Canadian Ministry has been defeated in Parliament, and has asked that body to allow them two days to resign. The Governor is very much perplexed, as there were hardly men or party in Canada able to form a Govern ment. A correspondent of the New Y'ork Times, writing from Toronto, Canada, mentions a story which was current, of the discovery of a plot having for its object the annexation of Canada to the United States. It is said that when Mr. Seward, sometime ago in the United States Senate, spoke of the probable conduct of Canada, in the event of a war with England, he proceeded not on a vage estimate of the state of public feeling, but on tangible documentary evidence in tlie shape of letters from influential parties on this side, then actually in his hands. And it is added, that the conspiracy lias been blown upon, and that the Governor General is now in possession of the names of eight members of the Canadian Parliament, and of a number of Canadian Magistrates, who have been en gaged in treasonable correspondence with Mr. Seward. W e regret to learn that the gin house of Hon. Jas. Searcy, Senator from llcnry and Dale, was consumed by fire on Monday of last week, and that Mr. Searcy himself met with a seri ous injury in the effort to save his property from destruction. The fire was communicated accidentally from a burning brush heap at a short distance otf, and made such rapid pro gress, that Mr. Searcy who had entered the gin house for the purpose stated, was forced to jump from the scaffold, in doing which lie suffered a fracture of the leg. so severe as to cause the bone to protrude through the flesh. His numerous friends will be glad to know that lie is nevertheless doing well, and fast re covering. —Enfaula Spirit. A rumor is current in YVashington, to the effect that the war upon American filibuster ism, which has been hinted atbysome English and French journals, will lie commenced in the seizure of American steam packets and other vessels bound to San Juan with rein forcements for Walker. Another rumor states that the North Star, which sailed from New Yoi-k last week, and another packet which sailed on the Bth iust., will be anticipated by United States cruisers, and on their return to this countrywill be libelled. A Locomotive for Mexico. The Philadelphia North American mentions that asp endid locomotive had been built in that city for a railroad in Mexico. The ma chine is now complete, and will probably be despatched withina periodof two weeks. Ifer name is the Mosso Hermanos y Compania, and she is intended to run upon the railroad from Vera Cruz to a distance of fifteen miles, which is as far as the road has been comple ted. The weight is between fifteen and six teen tons. The mountings are of German silver, “find of fanciful as well as tasteful workmanship, causing the engine to present an unusually brilliant appearance. Tlie cost was about eleven thousand dollar*. Wonderful Elephants. Mr. William Cooke's two wonderful per forming elephants in England, have been pur chased by Mr. Sands, the celebrated Ameri can equestrian manager, at an immense cost, for the circus of Sands k Nathans, and are now on their way to New York in the packet ship Northumberland. The astounding per formances of these animals defies all descrip tion, and lias been the theme of universal wonder and admiration wherever they have appeared. They stand on their heads and on their hind legs, sit up and lie down at the word of command, march and perform a va riety of feats too numerous to bo described here, but tlie most astonishing feat of all is the ascension of one up a narrow inclined plane to a height of between 20 and 30 feet, at the tlie of which is a small circular pedestal. The huge animal having accomplished the perilous ascent stands on his head and hind feet alter nately, which to be believed must be seen clearly proving that, although so clumsy ill appearance, they possess more than an ordi nary share of agility. printing; AM) WRAPPING PAPER.
