COLUMBUS: Saturday Morning, April ft, 1856. I.AE6EBT CITY CIRCULATION. We do lielieve thut old Winter ih mastered ..i last. After a contest unparalleled in the memory of the “oldest inhabitant,” he lias liccn forced to abdicate his reign in these parts and “make track'” for a trans-equatorial le sion—for, in spite of common figures of speech, he fins fled to the southern and not to the northern hemisphere. For several days we have bad weather warm enough for even the most delicnte or rheumatic systems; and “Sam,” two doors above us, reports a lively demand for an article we were all anathema lining n few weeks ugo. We thought nt the time that the prevalent antipathy could not last long, and now the realization of this idea is quite transput•rut. “Tempo)a mutant nr, it no* rum Mot.” Man is as changeable in his tastes as the seasons , and therefore lie should accommodate himself to the mutations of the latter with true philosophy. We wish the Chilians and Patagonians joy of the inhospita ble old tyrant whom we consign to them for a eason, and trust that they may bo able to im prove his manners and moderate his intensity iieforo they in turn give him his “walking pa pers,” for wo know very well toward- what, quarter he will then direct Ids footstep: ♦— - The Buinbridge Argus (a now and spirited paper, which ably advocates the interests of Southern (ieorgia) says tlmt the Town l.'oim eil of Ilainhridgc intend to submit to a vote of i tie citizens the question of subscribing I 00,- <IOO of stock in the Atlantic ami Gulf Railroad, “conditionally.” Wc presume the condition i that the road shull run to or through their insvn; but wo would submit to our cotcinpo iary that the location of the road will be de rided by a vote of the stockholders, and qoii tiouii! subscriptions could hardly be allowed a vote. The Crops. The (’usavillo Standard reports that notwith standing the extreme coldness of the past win ter, the growing wheat lias not suffered the damages which have attended milder winters. It is, however, unusually backward, and far mers throughout Cherokee Georgia are appre hensive that the rust will injure it,. The same paper says that the planters of that region are now (10th inst.) busily engaged in planting • orn, and that, but little progress has yet. been made towards planting cotton. The editor of the llainbridgo Argus says that •mee the late frosts and cold weather he lias passed through the counties of Leo, Dougher ty, Calhoun, Early, Miller, and a portion of Decatur, and is able to report tlmt the crops have not been injured by the lute cold weath er, but are growing finely. The fruit blooms, too, have escaped injury. Kansas—Movements of the Enemy. While the South is entering with spirit into the contest which, is to decide the future polit ical late of Kansas—which is to keep open the Territory, and the State when formed, to set tlement by Americans from every section, or to terminate in the exclusion of the people of our own section from its fertile plains—it is well enough to keep at the same time an eye itpon the enemy and note the extent and na ture ot his operations to thwart us. The North is not idle or indifferent at this time— tar from it; men are hurrying on to grasp the oharpo’a ritles which fanatical hypocrites so liberally supply. The “ Aid Societies” wero never so active or zealous as at present. A company from Springfield, Massachusetts, passed through Albany the other day; they numbered only twenty, but a much larger number are getting ready to follow them, and the ‘‘Society’ at that place had resolved to end on detachments weekly. At New’ Haven, Connecticut, forty persons were ready to start s ‘ soon as the election of Tuesday last was ‘•ver, and it was computed that that city would cud on three hundred in all. A company of one hundred men started from Exeter, New Hampshire, on the first of April; they had al ready selected a fine location near Topeka.— No doubt many other companies, of whom wc have no definite information, have already s'one forward. These movements show that the South is not too hasty in going into the contest, and that site must persevere with the same energy and determination with which she has entered into the struggle, or Kansas will yet be lost to her. We think it quite probable that, notwith standing the numbers sent forward already by the South, the North is numerically even with her in this year’s operations. Hut there is one material difference in the character of the emi grants from the two sections, which brightens uiir prospect for the future. Most of the Southern emigrants are “solid'’ and respect ‘ble men, or young men who leave behind them connections of ii iluenec and patriotism ; while the Northern colonists are chiefly vaga bonds for whom individually nobody cares, and who are merely used as passive political instruments. ft is therefore evident that in case of any collision or serious difficulty be tween them, there will he found to exist throughout the South a feeling of personal concern and sympathy forourcmigrantswhich will urge thousands to rush at once to their lide, while no such considerations will oper •ite at the North—for the Frecsoilcrs care no more (personally) for their colonists than the'’ do for the dogs that are slaughtered iu sum mer in the streets of New York. The noted racer Arrow and Mr. Keuucr’s b f. Minnow were to run a three-mile race over the Matarie Course, near New Orleans, on the Bth inst., and a spirited contest was ex pected Arrow, in all his races, and especial ly in that in which he beat Leeomte, has prov ed himself to be one of the gamest horses in this country. Minnow is only a three-year old, but she has run a number of races and has never been beaten. She has twice beaten Pryor, the horse that vanquished Leeomte the other day in a four-mile race. Large bets were made on the race in New Orleans, and very fast time was predicted The Jullien Minstrels, Last night, drew a very full house, and kept the audience delighted and surprised. Every part of the performance was excellent and well received. The bill for to-night presents a rich treat to the lovers of fun. Go nil. and you will get your full money’s worth. More Arms Captured! A correspondent of the .Syracuse Journal (Freesoil sheet; writes that five hundred rifles and six cannon have been seized by the Mis sourians at Lexington, and lie adds that “the captured arms were well disguised.” Very true —if they were those purchased by Beecher and Silliinan, they were “disguised” under the cloak of religion ; if sent by a Freesoil associ ation, they were instruments of treason and civil strife “disguised” in the garb of patriot ism. It is a great shame Unit the purchasers of these arms cannot he “disguised” in hang man's cap- and allowed a free swing for free dom. ♦ Now Orleans Bhcriffalty. Oil the 7th inst., (lie Supreme Court of Lou isiana delivered an opinion pronouncing the act of the Legislature in removing Mr. Hnfty iiom the ollice of Sheriff of the parish of Oi leans, anil the subsequent appointment by the Governor of Mr. Hell to till the vacancy, to lie constitutional. One of the live Judges dissen ted. Mr. iI ntty had announced his willing ness to give up the ollice if the Supreme Court decided the case against hint, and t his exciting and discreditable conflict of authority may therefore be considered at an end. Mr. Wm. IS. Arrington communicates to the Nevvmui Rhuic the results of several experi ments made to kill hots or grubs, taken from horses. Most, of the drugs tried had no effect, hut. nitm-pgroxi/ic oil killed grubs in one min ute and a half. Mr. Arrington says that this oil “may be administered with perfect safety to man or horse in proper menstruum.” We presume that lie is an M. I*.; but wc advise persons inclined to try the experiment first, to consult a druggist or physician as to the pro per quantity, or the strength of the “menstru um,” to he administered. The Ncwnan Blade, speaking of the Atlanta Examiner’s article about the La Grange folk sending a bottle of vermifuge to Newnan, says: “The Examiner, when discoursing upon the subject of “All-fools’ Day,” seems to have a holy horror of auythingliko Jokes, but such things become “a mere freak of a parcel of young folk anxious for fun” when perpetrated upon other people. It, looks to us like “strain ing at a knnt ami swallowing a camel.” Your point touched him in a vulnerable place there, Mr. Blade. But wc wish to whis per in your ear, in a tone so low that the pub lisher of the Examiner (who is a book •worm) can’t hear us, that there is no sort of necessity for spelling gnat with a Kay. Books of subscription to the capital stock of the La Grange and Oxford Railroad Company have been opened at La Grange. The Repor ter says that SI 00,000 Ims already been sub scribed. Ousting a Governor. Wc have noticed from time to time the ori gin and progress of the difficulty about the disputed Gubernatorial chair of Wisconsin, until its settlement by the surrender of the oth er parties to llashford, the Black Republican candidate. After Barstow had abandoned his pretensions and withdrawn, the Lieutenant Governor under him, McArthur, took posses sion and held out against llashford for a short time—it being reported, in the meantime, that the latter was organizing a force to place him in the oilice by violence if necessary. The fi nal scene in the drama is thus reported : The Governor (Bashford). —Well, Mr. Mc- Arthur, (taking off his overcoat and hanging it over a chair), l have come to take posses sion of these Executive apartments, and de mand of you the papers belonging thereto, the keys of the safes, desks, &c., together with all which pertains to the Executive chamber. Mr. McA.—(After a pause). Well, Mr. Bashford—or Governor, (smiliug and bowing to Bashford), 1 have to say simply this, that 1 hold the office of Governor of the State, under the Constitution, and denying as 1 do, the con stitutional rights of the Supreme Court to ex ercise jurisdiction over the case which they have just decided in favor of yourself, I must decline to vacate these rooms. Mr. McArthur to Governor Bashford—Do you intend, Mr. Bashford, to put me out by force if I refuse lo leave ? Let us understand each other aright. The Governor—l do not wish to say as much, Mr. McArthur, but— Mr. McA. (interrupting).—We are now oc cupying antagonistic relations, simply upon a political question, and I shall not treat it as a personal affront, sir, for you to answer mo in the affirmative, it such is your determination. If itisyour intention to use force iu ejecting me, and will so say, I will consider it constructive force, and yield. Mr. Hunter, (Private Secretary).— Come, Mr. Bashford, out with it. sav what you mean, net. like a man ! The Governor—Then, Mr. McArthur, I mil say, that should you refuse to give up posses sion of these rooms, peaceably, 1 shall feci it my duty to use what torcc would bp necessary’ to eject you. Mr. McArthur—That is sufficient, sir, l con sider this a constructive ejectment. J will now yield to you the possession of these apart ments. The Nownun Blade, in copying a late poetic offusiou from the pen ol’ a lady of this city, whose contributions have on several occa sions graced our columns, says of the fair au thoress : Wo copy the above from the Columbus Sun, for the following reasons: Ist. Because the writer of them was one of the first settlers of our city, in 1828, and with her husband, Dr. Henry L. Lestarjette, then, and for several years afterwards kept the Bell Tavern, now the Coweta House, which all our oldest citi zens will remember. 2d. Because she is a good scholar and a fine writer, as the above lines amply testify. 3d. Because sl.o is our niece, (our sister's daughter,) born iu Wash mgton, Wilkes county, Ga., andwhoso maiden name was Catherine Simms— and afterwards married Dr. Lestarjette, of Charleston, South ( arolina. 4th. Because she has shown her Southern blood, and particularly the revolu tionary spunk of her grandsires. And lastly, because they were well timed, being published a few days before the enterprising Maj. Buford awl his emigrants left for Kansas.— Jr. fi D , POST OFFICE, Columbus, G\.,J April 10th, 18-Vi. i Editor Daily S'tin —• Sir: You <lo the Postmaster and Clerks in this office injustice when you i-ay that the let ter from Mr. White, of Glennville, Ala., (sup posed to have been lost) was placed in the wrong drawer through carelessness.

It is known to most of our readers that, du ring the recent excitement occasioned by the reported prevalence of Small Pox in LaGrange, the town authorities of Newnan passed some stringent regulations in the premises and clos ed their port against any persons hailing from the infested city, requiring their Marshal to arrest and confine in the Calaboose any such person or persons as should have the temerity to violate the regulation. The tone and strin gency of these precautionary measures gave offence to \ oung America in LaGrange, who, to testify their anxiety for the personal health of the “city fathers” of Newnan, purchased a package or two of “ Vermifuge ” and forwarded it to them, with appropriate prescription.— Whereupon our Ncw nan friends, through the press of that place, reflect with considerable severity upon the good people of LaGrange, generally, and the physicians of the place par ticularly ; and so they make it, criminating and recriminating in style that would be amus ing, were it not that we regret to see so much bitterness between those who should be friends. It is not our intention to participate in the quarrel; on the contrary wc believe if the mat ter had never been given the importance of newspaper notice, it would have been allowed to pass as a mere freak of a parcel ol‘young folks anxious for fun; but we cannot agree with our Newnan cotemporary in his strictures upon the Physicians of LaGrange. We have the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with l)r. Ridley, the physician in attendance upon the supposed cases of small pox, and can readily perceive from his statement of the attending circumstances, how he fell into an erroneous diagnosis of them. Botli the cases had been in the vicinity of small pox, one indeed in the Hotel with it, and neither had any knowledge of contact with Measles, which being the case, and the symptoms of the diseases, in their ear ly stages being similar, it was but natural that Dr. R. and his colleagues should pronounce them cases of small pox; and the perhaps greater familiarity of Dr. Wadlawwith the dis ease, which induced them to send for him, is no argument against their capacity, but is rather commendable, sinee their anxiety for the safety of their fellow citizens induced them to throw aside everything like false pride, and take into council a physician whose acquain tance and experience with this unusual dis ease was perhaps greater than their own. Doath of Young Haimmond. Our readers will remember the horrible death of Amos W. Hammond, Jr., who was found on the morning of Christmas last affixed to the cow catcher of the passenger engine of the Macon & Western Railroad. We stated in our notice of the affair that suspicions were afloat that the young man had been foully dealt, with. Nothing, however, definite at that time could be proven, and the matter lias re mained to the present a mystery to those who believed otherwise than that his death was the result of an accident. At length, however, after the lapse of throe months, the question of young Hammond’s death baa been revived. We learn that a woman by the name of Taylor appeared before the Grand Jury on Tuesday, and charged two men, by the name of Taylor aud Harrison, and a woman, by the name of Davis, with the murder of Hammond. We have not learned the nature of her testimony : it was sufficient, however, to induce thoGraml •fury to find true bills against all the parties. The Woman, Davis, has been arrested ; Taylor succeeded in escaping, after being shot at by the Sheriff'. Harrison, we learn, is in iail at Chattanooga. The entire matter will soon undergo the in vestigation of a regular trial, when we will in forui our readers of the result.— Atlanta Intel ligencer.

Mr. Bell, of Tennessee, alluded to the rup ture between himself and Mr. Clayton, yester day. He regretted the occurrence, as it arose from a misapprehension on his part. If the Senator from Delaware shall say he did not mean to be personally offensive in his remarks relative to Lieut. Maury, he was prepared to make the amende honorable. A voice—“ That’s right”—and general good humor prevailed. Mr. Bell wished it understood, however, that without such disclaimer it was no bar gain. A Noiee—“That’s fair !” Mr. Clayton replied that be had no doubt but the Senate, with himself, regretted the disgraceful occurrence, especially as it had its origin in a misapprehension. He confessed that lie felt warm on that occasion, and was sorry for the exhibition. He could not bear malice after the frank and manly explanation of the Senator from Tennessee. He was glad to renew a friendship existing for more than twenty years. He tendered him his hand with all his heart. All present were pleased with the adjust ment of personal differences. Is the Prince of Algiers Heir to the Freneh Empire ? This is a question started by the New York Post, W'liieh states that the three most consid erable of the continental powers of Europe, ex clusive of France, some time since settled that question for themselves. They determined, four years ago, that no male descendant of Louis Napoleon should be regarded as the heir apparent ot hiscrowu. The empire, according to this arrangement, was to be Louis Napole on s lor life; when he died, Russia, Austria and Prussia pledged their word to each other “to restore the legitimate heir of the throne,” and to recognise no other. The Post, howev er, is of opinion that Louis Napoleon will un doubtedly exert himself to have these pledges cancelled, now that peace is about to be pro claimed. - The Waters of the Mediterranean. The phenomenon of so many waters con stantly flowing into the Me riterranean sea, and yet never perceptibly raising its level, is one ot the most remarkable in nature. AVe have recently seen the following explanation of this phenomenon, which, if not wholly sat isfactory, is at least ingenious aud plausible. The salt water entering the sea from the At lantic Ocean, is subjected to a process of evap oration, which, although by no means suffi ciently extensive to carry off the surplus quan tity, is yet powerful enough to remove a large part of its fresher particles, leaving, by the time the water arrives near the head of the sea, a brine, which, being heavier than the wa ter that is constantly pouring in from the ocean, sinks beneath it, and flows out in an under current by the same route iu which it entered. Ia us while there is a strong surface current always setting to the Eastward through the Straits of Gibraltar, there is, beneath the surface current, near the bottom of the Straits, an equally strong under current of very salt water pouring forth to mingle again with the waters ol the Atlantic. The existence of this under current was discovered many years ago. An Interesting Story. ‘■Shun, mine Shon,” said a worthy German lather to his heir often years, whom he had overheard using profane language. “Shon, mine Shon!— eouie here, an’ 1 vill dell you von little stories. Now, mine Shon, shall it P° a druc story, or a makes pelieve ?” ” Oh, a true story !” answered John. “ Ferry veil dcu. Here vas once a goot, nice obit slientleman, (shoostlike me), undthe had von dirty fiddle poy, (shoost like you) Amlt von day he heard him shwearing like a young tillian, as he vas. So he vent to der winkle (corner) and took out a eowhides, (shoost as I am toiug now); and he dook ter dirty fiddle plaekguard py do collar, (dis way, you see !) and volloped him, shoost so ! And den, mine tear Shon, ho bulljhis cars, dis wav, aud smack his face, datway, an’ dell him to go mitout bis supper, shoost as you vilt do dis efening.” Count Or loir’s Opinion of Napoleon. The Paris correspondence of tlio Indepen dence Beige pretends that the following are the exact terms in which tho Russian plenipo tentiary, Count Orlofl, lately expressed his opinion ot the character of the Emperor Na poleon : “ The groutost grief (chagrin) of my life,” saul the Count, “now that I know the Empe ror Napoleon, is that my late master, the Em peror Nicholas, did not know him too. If he could have seen him for but half an hour, not only would there have been no war, but the best relations would have been established be tween the two countries. The Emperor Napo leon had precisely those traits of character that would have exercised a great influence over the Emperor Nicholas.” KINK DRESS IIAT. ‘ (1 KNTLEMKN wishing a “FINE DRESS HAT ” —— A , so / fpriug wear, or a very light ami beautiful / M SOI! 11AT, should call and examine the “Ne PluecKK.
