COLUM HUS: ‘l'll lii'Htlay Morning, March ‘ll, IS3O. UAItdKNT CITY CIRCULATION. Supreme Court of Geornia. We loam from the liitelligeucci', that tliin Court met at A lantii on Monday. Judges McDonald and Denning, the Assistant Depor tee, tiie Clerk of the Court, and many leading members of the bar, were in attendance. Judge Lumpkin had not arrived on Monday. The men mentioned by us the other day as having been arrested on suspicion of having robbed the store of Lallerstedt & Dcniing, *f Vugiistu, liave had an examination and been committed for trial. Two women, who were also arrested, have been discharged. —— ltobbcry of a Bank Agency. The agency of the Dank of Charleston, at Jacksonville, Flu., was robbed, on the night nl (lie 20th inst., of a package containing •'B*s,- 400, principally in notes outheDankofCharlcs tuii. The agent, Mr. G. C. Gibbs, odors n to ward of SIOOO for the recovery of the money, or a proportionate reward for any part of it. -♦ The Adriatic, the new and gigantic steamer of the Collins line, is now rapidlyapproaehing completion, and will be ready for launching about tin- sth of April. The prohibitory liquor law being still in force in Rhode Island, the article cun only be proi'iireil from the drug stores for medical or mechanical purposes. The prohibition, how ever, does not appear to have been conducive to the public health, for two of the patent medicine establishments of the city have re turned as their sales for last year 1,000 bar rels and 432,000 bottles of medicines, amount ing to the sum of $700,000! ♦ The ice at the North was still an obstruction to the navigation of many rivers last week.— The Hudson was frozen over and impervious to navigation above Tarrytown. The Dela ware was still choked up, and navigation to Philadelphia had not been fully resumed. The ice was breaking up in the upper Ohio river, but would gorge in many places and till up the bed of the river. ♦ We are glad to see that the people of South Carolina are becoming more and more aroused to the importance of sending emigrant* to Kan sas. Very spirited and promising meetings have been held in Charleston, Columbia, and a number of the Districts, and a determination to act promptly and liberally lias been mani fested. In portions of Georgia and Alabama, too, the people are taking hold of the subject in a spirit becoming its importance. Maj. Buford’s enterprise has been handsomely en couraged and aided, and there is no doubt of the entire success of bis expedition, lie will undoubtedly take out a large company and establish a nourishing settlement. The 3d day of April is the time for emigrants to join him in this city. Bear it in mind, and be ready to start at that time. New Counties. IJesitles organizing several new counties (we had greatly too many before), our lust Legis lature changed the names of two old ones. It re-christened Kinchufoonee, Webster; and Mc- Intosh, I’res ton. We believe that our enor mous list of counties now includes the names of all the great men of the nation, living or dead, nnd all the Indian names known. We are only aware of “Hiawatha” and “Hilly Bowlegs” among the Indian names yet to be honored in this way, and we presume that their time will soon come. Our own county of Muscogee lias been lopped off and frittered away to make new counties, ultil it now lias • oily one voting precinct outside of this city, and there was a bill before the last legislature to lop off that precinct for anew county ! We presume that this will not only be done at the next session, but at least two more counties will be formed out of Columbus—one consist ing of tiie Wynnton settlement, and another formed by dividing the city proper along the line of “Hattie How.” We trust that the can didates can afford to wait patiently for the ac tion of the Legislature, and that in a few years we will have counties and cities enough in Georgia to accommodate all aspirants for of fice. •• Save mo from my Friends.” Tlio British papers were lately jubilant over a visit paid by the Sultan of Turkey to an En glish masked bull at Constantinople, and con sidered the occurrence as so unusual and ex traordinary as to indicate a great revolution in Turkish sentiment and civilization. Such an occurrence was never known before—both Turkish religion and custom opposing such levity and frivolity ns a heinous offence.— lienee the attendance of the Sultan was her alded as a most notable incident, and consid ered as marking an era in Turkish history.— I tut now the other side of the story comes to us in a letter from Constantinople, dated Feb. Htli, to the London Morning Advertiser. This correspondent (who is of course an English man) writes that Lord Stratford, the British Ambassador, compelled the Sultan to violate the religion and the public sentiment ofkisnation by “many threats and much coercion;” that the poor “sovereign” protested “with tears against such an infringement of his dignity,” but his English “ally’’ was inexorable; and that when the promise hud been extorted and became known, “the chiefs of the Mohoimue dan priesthood gathered around their prince and entreated him to resent the insult offered and defy the menaces of the Christian ambas sador.” He was, however, too weak to resist, and attended the ball os previously reported. Among other scenes offensive to Turkish good manners and decorum, the “Christian” managers of this frolic had a French cook dressed up to resemble a bear, who repeated in the presence of the offended Sultan some doggerel verses in abuse of ltussia ! Subse quently to this affair, the French made a simi lar demand for the Sultan’s presence at one of their balls, and paraded 10,000 troops in the streets to enforce their demand. Truly, the Allies are not only protecting, hut but also civilising Turkey—with a vengeance I PARTY VIEWS AND MOVEMENTS. A Washington correspondent of the New York Herald writes that the “Southern Amer ican?” at the National capital now admit the cheerless prospect of .Mr. Fillmore s election, and are half inclined to surrender. He inti mates that a portion of the Democratic partj are encouraging this feeling by holding out in ducements for a union of the Southern Know Nothings and the Democrats. The same wri ter speaks thus of the Democratic aspirants and their prospects : “It is now ascertained in political circles that Mr. Duoliaimn will get no Southern State in the Convention. Ihe supposed partiality of Virginia means nothing sincere. Louisiana, surely anticipated, is cer tainly lost to him. General l’iorces lricnds arc cheered, but are not quite contidcnt of the two-thirds vote. That rule will probably de capitate all the present prominent aspirants. Ai.aiiama.—lion. George 1). Shortridge, last year the Know Nothing candidate for Govern or, ami lion. Alex. White, lately a Union Whig Representative in Congress, have published an address to the American parly of Alabama, in which they express their entire disapprobation of the recent platform adopted at Philadelphia, give it as their opinion that no Southern man can safely stand on it, and propose another Convention to be held in July next at Nash ville, to lay down an acceptable platform. Louisiana. —The Tliibodanx (La.) Minerva, a Know Nothing paper, says that the Louisi ana delegation to the Democratic National l ‘(invention arc pledged to the support of .1 mlge Douglas. Wo thought it strange that a dele gation headed by Mr. Soule should be favora ble to the re-nomination of President Pierce, and we feel confident that the Minerva lias correctly represented Mr. Soule’s position at least. Ohio. —The American State Council of Ohio met at Columbus last week, and adopted a re port and resolutions repudiating both the platform recently adopted at Philadelphia and the nominations of Fillmore and Donelson— not, however, without strong opposition and a stormy debate. Ex Gov. Ford presided, and “opened the ball” by making a speech defend ing his course in seceding from the Philadel phia National Council. Maim:. — The Whig members of the Legisla ture of Maine lisld a meeting on Thursday of last week, and passed resolutions declaring that it is not advisable for the Whigs of Maine at the present time to take any action in re gard to the nomination of candidates for Pres ident and Vice President, hut to maintain their organization, and take such action as future circumstances may dictate. The Whig State Committee were requested to call a State Con vention in July next. New Hampshire. —The Concord Patriot publishes returns from the whole State with tiie exception of four small towns, which gave last year Baker, 133; Metcalf, 70; scattering, 15. This would make the vote stand : Wells, Democrat, 32,070 Metcalf, Abolition K. X. 32,120 Goodwin, Whig, and scattering, 2,480 The whole vote (says the Patriot) will ex ceed 0(5,000, or 2,000 more than that of last year when the largest vote ever cast was thrown. The Senate will stand 14 Democrats to 8 Ab olitionists and Know Nothings. In regard to the complexion of the lower House the Patriot says : “Whole number of Representatives elected,* 314; Democrats, 150; all others, 1(54. This gives an apparent majority of 14 against tiie Democrats; but among those reckoned against us are a number who cannot be relied on for Metcalf.” Hon. David Wilniot, the Chairman of the Republican State Committee, has called a Re publican State Convention to meet in Philadel phia on Monday, the Ifith of June, for tliepur pose of choosing delegates to the National Con vention and making State nominations. Immense Steamship. The tendency iu steamboat architecture is constantly to larger and larger vessels. The Persia is found to consume less coal, according to her tonnage, than any of her smaller con sorts in the Cunard line. She runs fasterthan the others, carries more passengers and freight, and requires but a very little larger crew than they. Anew steamer is expected this year from England, properly named the Leviathan. Her tonage will be 22,000 ! Her estimated draught of water, thirty feet, has given rise to a question about her port of en try Itere. Portland, in Maine, claims to be alone able to accomodate her, w hile New Yor kers insist that site will be otffiged to bring her freight, to the emporium, and say that by go ing round through Long Island Sound, she can take thirty feet of water to Morris’ Point, eighteen miles from the Battery. Then the passengers and cargo can be quickly taken by steamboats to (lie great city. Land Warrants. There is a little depression in the market to-day, mainly owing to an effort oil the part of large dealers in New York to get up a panic in the market similar to the one produced by the same sort of movement in November last. Country dealers should look well to till such movements, and by a concert of action among themselves avert the heavy losses they may be otherwise subjected to. A system of tele graphing front city to city to the effect that warrants arc heavy and declining, has been kept up for a day or two.

The most horrible occurrence that we have heard of for a long time, says the Gallatin (Miss.) Argus of Friday the 14th, occurred eight miles from that place, on the Jackson road, at the store of Mr. Allman. Allman was smoking iu the store room, and being called to breakfast, started out, and, it is supposed, passed over a keg of powder, dropping fire in to it. The house was leveled to the ground by the explosion that ensued, and was soou wrapped in tlauics. Some persons near by ran to the spot, ami succeeded m getting Airs. All man from the ruins, badly, but uot dangerous ly hurt and bruised. No property was saved; and a gentleman just from the spot says that the skull and ribs of the unfortunate Allman were all that remained visible of him anunig the smoking ruins. Snt Lovengood’s Daddy, ‘Acting Horse.’ “ Hold th t ere lioss down to the yearth. “ He’< a spreadin’ his tail to tiy now. “Keep him whar he is.” ‘ Wo,’ ‘wo, Shavetail.’— ‘lie’s a dancin’ a jig.’ These, and like ex pressio s, were addressed to a queer-looking, long-legged, short-bodied, small-headed, white haired, "hog-eyed, fuuny sort of a genius, fresh from some bench legged Jews’ clothing store, and mounted on ‘Tun-poke,’ a nick-tailed, bow-necked, long poor horse, half daily, half devil, and enveloped all over in a perfect net work of bridle reins, cruppers, raartigales, straps, ciicinglcs, and red ferretin’ who had reined up in front of Pat Nash’s grocery among a crowd of wild mountaineers, full of light and mean whiskey. “ 1 say, you durned ash cats,just keep your shirts on, will ye ? Vou never seed a rale boss till 1 rid up ; Tarpoke is just next to the best boss that ever shelled nubbins, and lie’s dead as a still wurruin, poor old Tickytail.” “ What killed him, But V” says an anxious inquirer. ‘Why, nothin,’ you tarnai fool; lie j st died so, died a staudin’ up at that. Wasn’t that good pluck ‘! Froze stiff ; no, not that adzact ly, but starved fust, and then froze afterwards, so stiff that when dad and uie pushed him over lie jist stuck out so (spreading bis arms and legs) like a carpenter’s bench, an’ we waited seventeen days fur him to thaw afore we could skin him. Well, thar we was—Dad an’ me and Sail, and Jake, (fool Jake we called him fur short,) an Phinoas, an’ Callilmc, Jane an’ Sharlottean, an’ Simon, Saul an’ Caslius, Henry Clay, au’ Noah Dan Webster, an’the twin gals, and Cathrinc Second, andCleopatry Antony, an’ Jane Lind, and Tom Bullion, and mam herself, all left without ara boss to crap with. That was a nice mess fur a ’spcctablc white family to he slasbiu’ about iu, wern’t it '! Ibe durned if didn’t feel sorter like stcaliu’ a boss sometimes. Well, we waited, an’ rested, an’ wished, until well on into strawberry time, hopein’ sum stray boss inout cum along, but dog my cat, es any sicli luck as that ever cu is whar dad is, lie’s dratted mean, an’ lazy, an’ ugly, an’ savage. ‘Well onenite, dad he lay awake all nitc a snorin’ an’ rollin’ an’ a blowin’, an’ a scratcli in’ an’ a whisperin’ at mam, and next morniu’ says he, “But, I’ll tell you what we’ll do ; I’ll be a boss myself, and pull the plough while you drive me, and we’ll brake up corn ground, and then the ‘old quilt,’ (that was mam) an’ the brats kin plant or let alone, jist as they darned please. So out we goes to the paw paw thicket, and pealed a rite peart chance of bark, and mam and me made gears for dad, and they bccum him mitily; then lie would have a bridle, so l gits an old umbrillcr what I’d found, its a little forked piece of iron, sor ter like onto a pitch-fork, ye no, an’ we bent and twisted it sorter into a bridle bit, snafil shape; (dad wanted akurb as hesaid he hadn’t work’t fur sum time, an mite sorter feel his oats an’ go to cavortin’.) Well, when we got the bridle all fixed on dad; he champed the bit just like a boss (he allers was a most kom plicatcd, durned old fool, any how, and mam allers sed so when lie wern’t about) then I put on the geers, an’ out me an’ dad goes to the field, 1 a leadin’ dad by the bridle, and atoat in’ the gopher plough on my back. When we come to the fence, 1 let down a gap, an’ it made dad mad ; lie wanted to jump the fence on all fours, horse fashion. 1 hitched on to the gopher, an’ away we went, dad leanin’ forad tu liis pullin’ rite peart, an’ we made sharp plowin’, dad goin’ rite over the sprouts an’ bushes same as a rale boss, the only differ ence was he went on two legs. Presently we cum to a sassfrac bush, an’ dad to keep his karacter up as a boss, bulged rite squar intu it, an’ tore down a hornit’s nest, nigh on to as big as a boss’s head, an’ all the tribe kivered him rite strait. Herared and kicked once or twice, an’ fotclied asqual wussnor ara boss in the district, an’ sot into runnin’ away jist as natural as ever you seed. I let go the lines and hollered ‘Woa dad, woa !’ but yc might mout as well said woa to a locomotiv. Ge whilikins! how he runs ! When he cum to a bush, he’d clar the top of it gopher an’ all; praps he thought thar mout be anuthcr settle ment of bald hornits in it, an’ that it wur safer to go thru, an’quicker done; every now and then he’d paw the side of his head with fust one fore leg an’ then the utlicr, then he’d give himself an openhanded slap, that sounded like a waggin whip, lie a runnin’ all the time, and cr karryiu’ that gopher just about as fast an’ as high from the yearth as ever a gopher was karried, 1 swar. When he cum to the fence lie busted rite thru’ it, turrin’ down nigh unto seven pannel—scatterin’ an’ a breakin’ the rails mitily, an’ there left gopher, geers, sin gletree, and klcvis, all mixed up not wuth a durn. Most of his shirt stuck on the splinter ed end of a rail an’ nigh onto a pint uv hornits staid with the shirt stingiu’ it all over, the balance on ‘em, about a gallon and a halt', kept on with dad. He seemed to run jist about as fast as a liornit could fly, fur it wur the titest race l ever did see. Down thru the sedge grass they all went, the hornits makin’ it look sorter like a smoke all roun’ dad’s head, and he, with untilin’ on yearth on but the bridle, an’ nigh onto a yard of plough line a sailin’ behind. •1 seed now that lie was aimin’ fur tiie swim miu’ hole in the creek, whar the bluff is over twenty-live loot pcrpcndikclar tu the water, an’ hits nigh on to ten feet deep. Well, to keep his karacter as a lioss, when he gut to the bluff'he jist leaped off, or rather lie jist kept on a runnin', kerslunge into the water he went; I seed the water fly plum above the bluff from whar 1 was. Now rite thar boys he over did the thing, if that was what lie was arter, for thar’s nary lioss ever folded durned fool enuff to lope over sicli a place ; a cussed mule mout a done it, but dad waru't actin’ mule. 1 crept up to the edge and looked over, thar was dad's bald head for all the yearth like a peeled onyun, a bobiuup an’ douu, an’ the hor nits a sailin’ an’ a circlin’roun’ turkey buzzard fashion, an'wvery once in a while one, an’ sometimes ten, ’ud make a dip at dad’s head. He kept up a rite peart dodgin’ under, some times afore they hit him, an’ sometimes arter, an’ the water was kivered with dead hornits. ‘What on yearth are you doin’ in thar, dad’ sez I. ‘Don’t (dip) yer see these cussed (dip) internal varmints (dip) arter me ? What, sez 1. them are hoss-tlies thar—yc arn’t really feared ov them, are yc 1 Moss-flies, h—ll, sez dad: they’re rale (dip) geuewiuc, bald hornits, you (dip) infernal cus.’ Well, dad you'll hcv tu stay rite thar till nite, an’ arter they go to roost, cum home, and I’ll feed yc. 1 sorter think you won’t need any curryen lor a week or so. 1 wish 1 may never see to-morrow, (dip) if I don't ruinate you (dip) when lgct out, sez dad. ‘Better say you wish you may never see an other bald liornit, if you ever play lioss again, sez I—an’ knowin’ dad’s unmolificd natnr’ 1 broke from them parts, and sorter cum to the copper mines. I staid hid out until next af ternoon, when 1 seed a feller travclin’ an’ sez I, ‘what was goin’ on at the cabin this side the brook when you passed it 7” Why, uutliin’ much, only a jj’aij was sittin’ in his door with narry shirt on an’ a >7oy-aii was greasin’ his back au’ arms, bis head was about as big as'a ten gallon keg. an’ lie hadn’t the fust sign of a ~v t >—all smooth.’ ‘That man was my dad,’ sez I. ‘Been much fightin’iu this naberhood, lately ?’ sez the traveler, rather dryly. -Nun wuth speakin’ ofpussonly, sez I. Now boys I hnint seed dad since, and would be i'eard to meet him in the next ten years. Let's drink.’ And the last I saw of ‘But’ lie was stooping to get in at the doggery door with a mightily mixed crowd at his heels. ♦- Correspolidi'uce of the Charleston Courier. Jacksoxmij.e, March 20. One of our poor health-seeking strangers— tired and overborne with the pains and pangs of a diseased body, long endured and unassu siged by time or place—had himself conveyed into an adjacent wood, and deliberately took bis own life, yesterday, lie had a boy driving him iu a buggy to the scene of the tragedy, and on his way stopped at a gunsmith’s and there purchased and proved a pistol, lie paid for it, got his change, and drove on. Reach ing a secluded spot, he paid the boy for his driving, and the money for the hire of the ve hicle, and told him to drive back. The boy had hardly driven fifty yards, when he heard the crack of the pistol, and turned back and found the unhappy victim with his brains blown out. lie had put a letter into the office, which has been sent on to his brother in Boston, un der an envelope, by the postmaster. The body was brought homo to the Judson House, and to-day respectably interred. The name of the person is J. N. Knox, of Boston, but for some years a resident of Alabama. Before com mitting the deed, lie had deposited about .SI,OOO with the keeper of the hotel, and took his re ceipt for the same. He was in extremely bad health, scarce able to walk, and had remarked that he had suffered more than forty deaths. —♦ - The Fire-Arms Men. The Washington Star of the 14th says : Among those from a distance now in Wash ington, are an unusually large number of gen tlemen interested in patent arms ; the consid eration in Congress of the bill to increase the efficiency of the army, which proposes to ex pend a considerable sum in improved fire arms, having attracted them hither. They have, among them, a dozen different kinds of rifles, muskets, pistols, &c., nearly all of them being decided improvements on the arms now in use in the public service. An inspection of their samples shows that we are advancing quite as rapidly in the art of killing as in any other art whatever. The difficulty will be in deci ding which of the very many decided improve ments will be most available for the public service. The class of persons who liave them in charge, are famous for carrying smooth tongues in their heads, and are generally able to argue, each iu favor of his own gun, as as tutely as any Philadelphia lawyer for his cli ent. The War Department and the House and Senate Committees on Military Affairs may make up their minds to undergo a cross-fire ordeal from them, almost as much to be dread ed as a cross-fire from their several patent weapons. Recent English papers report that the High landers of Glenmore, in Inverness-shire, feel ing aggrieved and indignant at the slanderous charges brought by Mr. Macaulay against their predecessors, in his last volume of the History of England, assembled together, and headed by a piper playing the “ Rogue’s March,” pro ceeded to the Black Rock, near Glenmore House, and there burnt in effigy the distinguish ed historian. The assembled crowd gave three shouts of execration as the effigy was consum ed. Macaulay, when in the Highlands, resid ep for a considerable time at Glenmore House, and this act of the indignant Highlanders has caused no small sensation in the district. ♦ The Sea Serpent in the Highlands. The villago of Leurbost, parish of Lochs Lewis, is at present the scene of an unusual occurrence. This is no less than the appear ance in one of the inland fresh water lakes of an animal which from its great size and dimen sions has not a little puzzled our inland natu ralists. Some suppose him to be a description of the hitherto mythological water-kelpie: while others refer it to the minute descriptions of the **sea serpent,” which are revived from time to time in newspaper columns. It has been repeatedly seen within the last fortnight by crowds of people, many of whom have come from the remotest parts of the parish to wit ness the uncommon spectacle. The animal is described by some as being in appearance and size like a “huge peat stack,” while others affirm that a “six-oared boat” could pass between the huge tins, which are occasionally visible. All, however, agree in describing its form as that of an cel: and we heard one, whose evidence wo can rely upon, state that in length he supposed it to be about 40 feet. It is probable that it is no more than a conger eel after all, animals of this descrip tion having been caught in Highland lakes which have attained a huge size. He is cur rently reported to have swallowed a blanket inadvertently left on the bank of the lake by a girl herding cattle. —English Paper. The Camels. The camels and dromedaries purchased and otherwise procured by Major Wayne and Capt, l’orter under the appropriation made for the purpose at the last session of Congress, in Asia Minor, (Feb. 11, 1866,) embarked, and the vessel would sail with the first fair wind for the United States. The number of animals procured is 33, viz : 6 male and 15 female cam els ; 4 male and 5 female dromedaries. The vessel is expected to arrive at Indiano la, Texas, about the last of April, at whiefc place they will be landed and suffered to re cruit before being employed for army trans portation purposes. Several of the animals arc a present from the Viceroy of Egypt to our Government.— Waahinyton Star. The scientific world will learn with regret the death of the celebrated astronomer, Von Biela, which took place at Venice on the 18th of February, in his 74th year. At an early age he entered the service of Austria, and it was in the year 1820, while quartered with his regiment, the 18th infantry of the line, at the little town of Josephstadt, in Bohemia, that he made the interesting discovery of the comet (called after him) circulating round the sun, between that luminary and the orbit of Saturn. Having retired from the army, he spent the last years of his life in the study of his favorite science—astronomy. Well Fotgotten. The Biughampton Democrat says : “ The London Telegraph, enumerating the American cities which the Britishers could take ‘just as easy’ in case of war between thetwoeountries, leaves out New Orleans altogether ! We can’t account for the omission except on the ground that they took it in 1814, and do not think it necessary to take it over again.” Judge Breekenridgc, in reprimanding a cri minal, was answered by him: “Sir, lam not so great a scoundrel as your honor takes me to be.” “Put your words closer together,” replied the Judge.
