COL “CM BTTS: Saturday Morning, Marr.li ‘Wi liARGEST CITY CIRC CITATION. Hon. Edward. Everett haa consented to deliv er n lecture on the life and character ol \V ash ington, at Richmond, Va., and Washington ( ‘ity, the proceeds to be appropriated to the fund for the purchase of Mount Vernon, lie delivered the same lecture in New York, and the Tribune of that city, though admitting that it was a masterpiece of elegance and elo quence, violently abused and berated the lcc tnror because he failed to speak of Washing ton’s emancipation of slaves and other acts which that paper regards as proving that he was an abolitionist! 80 much for abolition liberality and decency. Its fanatical Advocates cannot bear even pure literature or religion, unless tinctured with political abolitionism.— Even a tribute to the Father of his Country— the patriot whom no party can claim, but whose fame rises above political divisions and creeds—is distasteful to them, unless replete with allusions to sentiments ami acts which they scruple not to pervert to the encourage ment of treason to tho Union which Washing ton cemented and to the Constitution which he aided so largely in perfecting ! - The first stoainers of the season, two in num ber, arrived at New Orleans from the upper Arkansas river, on the 17th inst. One of them had been fourteen months, ami the other twelve months and 0110 day, lockod up in the Arkansas river by the low stage of water.— Both brought down heavy loads of cotton and other produce. We cut the following from its prominent po sition under the editorial head of one of our ex changes from Northern Georgia: “A few sacks of No. 1 Flour and a tine lot of fresh Eggs, for sale at tho Standard OHiec. Call soon.” We presume that our fortunate cotemporary lias been receiving “remittances” of produce from his subscribers in payment of dues, and now wishes to exchange a portion of his “ re ceipts” for cash wherewith to buy paper, &c. A primitive and fair business arrangement, that, and one tlmt illustrates without indirect permutation the mutual dependence of two branches of industry. The Governor has issued his proclamation, requiring the officers of tho several banks in this State, to make out and transmit to him, within thirty days from the 13th inst., a true return of the condition of such banks, with the names of their presidents, cashiers, and stock holders. There are now nineteen United States ves sels of war at the Navy A'ard near Norfolk, viz : four ships of the line, three of the new steam trigates, three steamers, four frigates, four sloops-of-war, and one brig. They carry 789 gnus in all. This statement shows that an invading tleet would not find us altogether unprepared, and that Great Britain or France would have to abandon the blockade of the Baltic in order to operate effectually against us even in the commencement of hostilities. — New Banks In Georgia. Tho following is a list of the new Banks created by our Legislature during its recent session : Mechanics it Planters’ Bank, Savannah. Exchange Bank, Griffin. Hamilton Bank, Hamilton. Bank of Columbus, Columbus. Bank of Fulton, Atlanta. Bank of Cuthbert, Cnthbert. North-Western Bank, Ringgold. Greensboro’ Bank, Greensboro’. Bank of Morgan, Madison. Central Bank of Georgia, Macon. Unless our legislators wake up speedily to the evils of hasty legislation, we presume that in a vory few years the number of counties in tho Stato will be doubled, and there will be a “ Bank” in nearly every one of them. We shall then soon exhibit the spectacle of a State *pH/ 11 p and hunted. - An act to “ ereate and organize the Atlan tic and Pacific Railroad Company” has been passed by the Congress of Mexico. The capi tal stock is to be ten millions of dollars. There is already a railroad in progress of construc tion from Vera Cruz towards the city of Mexi co, and a small portion of it is in running or der ; but we are not informed w hether this line is to be a portion of the “Atlantic and Pacific Railroad,” or what places are to bo the ter mini of the latter road. Rev. Dr. Gumming, of London, a very popu lar and eloquent divine of the Established Church, has published works maintaining that the “end of tho world” will occur m 1865; but he has taken the precaution to extend the copyright of his books beyond that time ! The Doctor is a provident man, and we admire the precautions ho takes to provide against acci dents or mistakes. Wo trust that he may live os long as his copyright, and his works long “after him.” The store of Lallerstedt & Denting, at Au gusta, was robbed by burglars on Tuesday night, and on Wednesday portions of the stolen articles were found 011 the premises of John Body and Thomas Gibbons of Hamburg, aud Mrs. Sharkey, of Augusta. These persous were all arrested and committed. - ♦ Six hundred and ninety-one tons of iron for the Savannah and Gulf Railroad are now on the way from Wales to Savannah. This iron is anew supply to make up for the loss of a large sliipment a few months ago. Capt. Luce (the commander of the Arctic until she was lost) gives it as his opinion that the pieces of furniture seen from the propeller Edinburg belonged to the Pacific and were parts her wreck. On the other hand, Mr. Col lins doubts whether they belonged to the Pa cific, and has strong hopes that she may yet be heard from by one of the next arrivals from the Western Islands. Corn in Nashville, Tennessee, is quoted from fifteen to twenty cents per hushel Walker in Nicaragua. That the great and inevitable crisis in the affairs of the new Government of Nicaragua is near at hand, is evident enough; it is palpable that the collisions impending and unavoidable must very shortly either eventuate in the ex pulsion of Walker and his North American army from the country, or in the strengthen ing of his rule and the expansion of his terri tory. Should lie be able to repel the invasion threatened by the other Central American States, Mosquitia will soon fall into his hands, and he will then possoss a territory of large extent, embracing an extensive coast on either ocean, and of great fertility and varied natu ral resources. A glance at this territory as delineated on the map, with its commercial advantages and central position among tho small States of the Isthmus, will demonstrate its importance and future commanding influ ence. If Mosquitia (now tho least civilized and most sparsely settled of the petty Central American States) should he annexed to Nicar agua, adventurers from the United States would rapidly settle and develop it, and a very few years would make Nicaragua the coutrol ing and absorbing power in that portion of the continent. It is a knowledge of this fact, stimulated no doubt by European intrigues, which makes tho surrounding Status so jeal ous of Walker. There is another struggle to maintain a “balance of power,” and Mos quitia is the first “sick man” whose case Dr. Walker undertakes to manage. Tho patient disposed of, he will also lie administrator on his effects, aud will settle the estate by con solidation instead of distribution. But there are great difficulties in the way of Walker and his schemes, and we appre hend that without the indirect countenance of our Government, to the extent at least of non intervention on its own part and a mainten ance of the Monroe doctrine, he will not be able to maintain even his present foothold.— The remarks of Mr. Clayton the other day in the Senate (which wc notice more particularly elsewhere) we four forebode opposition rather than aid and comfort from tho United States: aud the following article from the Panama Herald (published near the scene of action) discloses a feeling and condition in Nicaragua itself which arc not promising for the new Government and its plans: Notwithstanding the strong sentiments ex pressed by our United States exchanges in fa vor of the Walker Government in Nicaragua, wc have never yet mot with one solitary rea son to change our first opinion, which wo have frequently expressed, that not only will Wal ker’s expedition prove a failure, but that Walker himself will cither be shot or driven from the country. We are no friend of a ne gro government, such as that of Nicaragua has to a great extent been, but still less are we favorable to a filibuster scheme such as that got up by Walker and his party, which can only result in and and blood shed. Our views 011 this, point are confirmed by every arrival from Greytown. By the last British steamer we are informed that the Wal ker Government only exists by tho most des potic rule, and that his whole followers would desert were it not for the dread of being shot, a fate which is sure to attend any one who even dares to complain. No one is allowed to leave the ranks, and the new recruits who join his army are unfortunate persons, who are picked up by force and actually made prisoners of, and kept so until their services are required as soldiers. His rule may sti 1 exist a very few r months, but its fate is inevi table. Six hundred foreign paupers witli nothing to recommend them but their buwie knives anil revolvers can never be successful in gaining the good will of people upon whom they force themselves; and just as soon as the slightest chance opens for tho purpose, will Walker and his followers be as mercilessly murdered, as have been the unfortunate victims of his rcck less’amliition since he entered the country. Look out for Them ! The following circular from the Bank of AVilmington, North Carolina, has been sent to the various banking institutions of the South ern States: Bank 01 Wilmington, N. C., 1 March 14, 1856. j Dear Sir : At the time of the disaster on the Seaboard Railroad, the 10th inst., Adams’Ex press Company had in charge four thousand blank impressions, eich, of the tens and fives of this Bank, which on the destruction of their freight car by fire, were scattered in all direc tions. Many of the notes werenot at all burn ed—how many it is impossible to tell. Wc have succeeded in recovering very few. Many of them will no doubt be fraudulently filled up aud put in circulation. Alter issuing five thousand impressions of each of these plates, ($300,000) we changed the style of tho red letters. The red letters of the first issue are straight at top and bottom ; those of the last issue (lost notes) are of curv ed outlines entirely—their position on the ten is changed—in the first issue the T. and N. j are above the signatures—in the last, these letters are placed lower, ami cross the signa ture lines. On the five the difl’ereucc isonly in the form of the red letters —oll the first issue it is straight at top and bottom ; on the last it is of curved outlines eutirelv. Os this last we have issued of the tens 300 impressions, No. 6,001 to 6,300,—and of the fives 200 impressions, No. 6,001 to 5,200,—in all SIO,OOO. We ask your co-operation in withdrawing | these as soon as possible, front circulation. We hope the distinctive mark of the red letters and a vigilant police may, in a measure, save I the community from imposition. We shall change the face of our next issue j entirely. Respectfully yours, S. JEWETT, Cashier. .Front Washington. Washington, March ID. The House bus adopted a resolution, in lieu of the majority and minority reports upon the Kansas contested election case, authorizing the Speaker to appoint a committeo of three to proceed to Kansas to take testimony and iu vostate the case. The sum of SIO,OOO is ap propriated for this purpose, and the President is requested to afford military protection to the committee, if necessary. The resolution was adopted by a vote of ayes 101 —nays 02. The Senate passed the Military Academy bill, and afterwards considered the Deficiency bill. From Kansas. Columbia. March 10.

The case of Martin Speer, which is now at tracting universal attention, (from the fact that our Minister, Col. Henry R. Jackson, it appears, is about to suspend diplomatic rela tions with Count ltuol, and leave the Austrian capitol on this man’s account) is one of the most important as regards the rights ot an American abroad, that has ever occurred in the history of our foreign relations. A great er case of out rage and oppression cannot be conceived. Mr. Martin Speer, a citizen of Brooklyn, New York, by trade a glass painter, while in the Austrian dominions upon business alto gether of a private at and innocent nature, was arrested by the police, kept in solitary con finement for seven months, not allowed to make his situation known to the United States Legation at Vienna : and then after repeated secret examinations before aPdlice Magistrate, upon the clearest evidence of his innocence, was convicted of high treason, aud sentenced to ten years hard labor in irons, Upon the trenches at Thoricmstadt, Bohemia. Upon the case being brought to the notice of the American Minister, Col. Jackson, lie promptly interfered to effect the release of Speer, and after a correspondence with the Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, lie be ing convinced that Martin Speer was not only innocent of any crime, but bad been most out rageously treated by the Austrian authorities, Mr. Jackson (without waiting instructions from his Government,) made a formal demand for the release of Speer. Mr. Speer has a wife and five children in Now York, who are naturally much distressed at his situation. Considerable curiosity is manifested in this city to peruse the correspondence, as it is inti mated by those who profess to be informed, that Col. Jackson’s response to Count Buol in making his demand for the release of Speer in point of ability, will compare with either Mar cy’s Koszta letter, or Webster’s reply to M. Hulsemau. Truth. P. T. Barnum and his Failure. On Thursday, Mr. P. T. Barnum was put under examination before Judge Hoffman, in New York, relative to his property, at the suit of Cushing & Cos., who have obtained judgment against him. The Mirror says: He stated that the sale of the Museum was a bona fide one ; lie bought it for $12,000 and sold it for $24,000 to Messrs. Greenwood & Butler. lie expressed his willingness to do anything the Court ordered, if in his power, to discharge his liabilities. He stated that in June last he was worth $500,000 above all his liabilities ; he had spent $50,000 per annum in Bridgeport where his real estate was prin cipally situated, lie agreed to accept and en dorse the paper of the Jeromes to a little over SIOO,OOO. lie continued to do so, as he sup posed, for renewals ; but, to his amazement, he found his name on their paper to thcamount of $ 150,000. Mr. Barnum further stated that he did not consider himself a bankrupt, as lie hoped to pay all his personal debts ; but if inability to pay the clock debts be considered a failure, then he had failed in January last, lie did not consider himself liable for those debts, he said, because some of the holders of those drafts were the very persons who induced him, by fraudulent representations, to endorse the paper; others had bought the paper at 25 to 2# per cent, discount, knowing that he had given his name without receiving a farthing’s value. The amount of mortgages and judg ments on his New York property was $141,- 500; the furniture, plate &c., at Iranistan, were sold for $2,000. The assets in his possession at present were $31,500 Crystal l’alace first mortgage bonds ; 078 lots in Cypress Hill Cemetery ; a bond against H. 1). Beach, for $12,000, for money placed in his possession in California; also a claim against Duncan, Sherman & Cos., for some $17,000, growing out of Owen 1). Mann’s in junction against the Crystal l’alacc. Mr. B. was questioned also on Friday as to his present means of living, and stated that he took boarders, and had the vegetable product of the Bridgeport farm of last summer, lie had friends who would keep him from starving, and had tendered him money. In reply to the question, he acknowledged that he had a gold watch, which lie would produce if required to do mi —also, a diamond ring. Being asked if he had a piano-forte, he said yes, but it was mortgaged for all it is was worth, as well as other furniture. Destructive Fire at Murfreesboro. Fourteen Houses in Ruins. The Murfreesboro, (Tcnn.) Telegraph pub lishes an extra on the 15th instant, to an nounce that a calamitous fire had visited that town about 3 o'clock that morning, and de stroyed property to the amount of $30,000. — The flames burst forth in the tinner’s shop of Mr. Barnes, on the north- east corner of the square, and speedily communicated to the grocery store of Messrs. Crockett it Ransom, who lost a large amount of wheat, corn, bacon, sugar and various other articles, supposed al together to amount to seven or eight thousand dollars, three thousand five hundred of which was covered by insurance. The Masonic Hall, which was in the third story of this building, was destroyed with all the furniture, jewels, &c., of Mount Moriah Lodge, No 28, of Mur freesboro Lodge, No. 205, and l’ithngoras Chapter, No. 28. The exact loss of the Fraternity cannot be estimated, supposed to be from six to eight hundred dollars. The grocery store of Messrs. J. A. Collier & Cos., was also completely de stroyed. The house occupied by Vi. T. Lane was considerably injured. The lire also com municated to the buildings owned by Messrs. J. A. Collier & Cos., and completely destroyed them as also the adjoining buildings of Mr. Thos. B. Clark, in which were two Groceries and one Storage house, one belonging to Mr. A. G. Crosby and the other to Mr. Clark him self. The loss of Messrs. Collier .k Cos. is esti mated at $1,500, and that of Mr. Clark at near $5,000. — Atlanta Bank. We are credibly informed, says Swan’s Bank Note List, of the sth inst., that the affairs of this Rank arc in a fair way of being speedily wound up. On Monday last, all the redeemed issues of the Bank were burnt in presence of George Smith. We have also heard that the Banking House and the unexpired charter of the Bank is offered for sale. We trust that the applicants for the charter of the “ Fulton Bank ’ will at once have their Subscription Books opened, and make arrangements for the establishment of a Bunk that will meet the wants of the commercial men of that region. Leap Year. \\ e are informed that a gentleman from a neighboring county, visiting this city a few days ago, casually called on a lady acquain tance, who availed herself of the loap-yoar privileges of her sex, during the interview, and proposed —and being a gallant, susceptible and sensible man—and the challenged parly too—he immediately indicated time aud place, ond on that evening two were made one.— Bright lie their future.— Xorfolk Xeirs.

Strict Middling Djc. . -♦— Terrible Calamity. I’iilLAPELfniA, March Hi. A terrible disaster occurred on the Dela ware river last night, opposite this city.— About half-past nine o’clock, ns the ferry-boat New Jersey was crossing the river front this side to Camden, she took fire when in tho middle of the stream, and, after grcatdiflieulty, owing to the floatiug ice, was run upon the bar opposite Arch street. There was about one hundred passengers , onboard—among whom the wildest conster nation prevailed. Many jumped at once into tho river—some clinging to the floating ice until rescued by small boats from the city— whilst others, not a few, it is feared,” were drowned. Tim boat was burned to the water"s ; edge in a short time. How many lives were , lost it i. impossible yet to ascertain. Steam i ers were sent out immediately to rescue the passengers, but when they reached the spot 1 all that were able to keep afloat in the water ■ hud been saved by the small boats. Among the missing arc Sallic Carman, of Camden : a little daughter of Samuel Grierson, of Philadelphia ; Edward Messclnimp, former ly conductor of the Amboy Railroad; John Fidel!, of Camden, and a large number of colored persons. The boat belonged to the Philadelphia and Camden Ferry Company.— The loss of life resulted from the boat not be ing provided with either small boats or life preservers. Matthew’ Miller, Jr., broker ; Mr. Howard, clerk, and Mrs. Shade and child, are also re ported as missing. Captain James Robinson saved eight men and two ladies in a boat which he launched with the assistance of another person. It is feared that the loss of life will reach fifty.— Many persons leaped into the water with their clothes on tire. Miss Carman was last seen with her clothing in a blaze. March 10, PP. M.—Only one additional body was found in the afternoon, making but three recovered altogether. They have been recognised as Abraham Junnie and Jolm Little, of Camden, and Francis Fitzpatrick, of Phila delphia. The two former were workmen re turning home to their families, and the latter was on a visit to his brother at Camden. The origin of the tire is not known. It hurst up suddenly from the five room, and spreading to the wood work, the pilot house was quickly consumed and fell in as the boat was nearing the wharf, rendering her unman ageable from 1 lie disarrangement of the tiller chains. The head sheered off” from the wharf, and the engine could not be stopped because the engineer had been driven from his post by tho flames. The boat thus carried the few remaining passengers 011 board away from the land. The number of dead and missing is about 30. The persons dead and missing mostly be long to Camden. Very few belong to this city, and there arc no strangers missing. 1 Au Important Declaration. Mr. Clayton, of Delaware, on Monday, the 17th inst., as we notice in the Washington Star, addressed the Senate at some length on the Central American question, holding that Walker is a brigand and outlaw, and that his acts and those of his followers were unlawful, and that they must be put down, lie was exceedingly severe on the Accessory Transit Company of Nicaragua, holding they had forfeited all claim to tho sympathy of this Government, by the aid and countenance they had given to Walker. He reviewed the new grant of the transit right to Mr. Randolph, given by Walker, and explained that it was one that by treaty this Government and Eng land must put down. lie also warned the young men of the coun try against identifying themselves with the fortunes of Walker, showing the illegality and gross impropriety of so doing on their part. Who Annexed Texas- Ex-Prcsideut Tyler has written tho follow ing to Geu. Green, a delegate from Texas in the late Southern Commercial Convention held in Richmond, Va.: Sherwood Foxiest, Feb. 28, 1856. Dear General —1 take occasion now to thank you for your kind reference to me in your re marks at the Richmond dinner. It would be indeed strange if my enemies could deprive me of the credit of having annexed Texas to the Union. I presented the question, urged it first in the form of a treaty to the Senate, met the rejection of that treaty by a prompt and immediate appeal to the House of Represen tatives, fought the battle before the people, and conquered its two formidable adversaries, with tlieir trained hands, and two days before my term expired, adopted and enforced the alternate resolution under which Texas took her place amid the fratcrniti of States. My successor did nothing but confirm what 1 had done. Nor is that all. Texas drew after it California, so that 1 may well claim that, in regard to that whole subject, Air. Polk was but administrator de bonis non. True, 1 would not have negotiated a treaty of peace without settling the slave question in that treaty, the omission to do which was a great blunder. Os this 1 will talk to you when 1 see you. Ac cept the assurance of my constant esteem. JOHN TYLER. ♦ A Story Finished. Some years ago a Cincinnati paper received and printed the first chapter of what promised to be a thrilling romance, with the expectation ! of being provided with the concluding poi-tions ; as might be needed. The chapter was very ingeniously written, and concluded by leaving the principal character suspended by the pan taloons from tlio limb of a tree over a peruen- ! dicular precipice. It attracted the attention I oftlie press, and inquiries were about to be i made concerning the continuation of the story and the fate of the hero. Day after day the victimized publisher looked for the remaining chapters, but in vain, they ncvcrcame to hand. Finding that they had been sold, and wishing to put a stop to the jokes tlieir cotemporaries were cracking at tlieir expense, they briefly concluded the story thus : Chapter ll.—Conclusion. After hanging to j the treacherous tree for four weeks, his pant a- I loons gave way aud Charles Melville rolled headlong over the yawning precipice. lie fell a distance of five miles, and came down with the small of his back across a stake, which so jarred him that he was compelled to travel in j Italy for his health, where he is at present re- 1 siding, lie is engaged in die butchering bu siness, and is the father of a large family of children!
