COLTJMBXJH: ThuriMlM)’ Morning, MJ’ I* BS®. liAKtiKST CITY CIUCULATION. Sheriff Jones not Dead. A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican writing from l’nluruio (Kansas) May sth, re ports sheriff Jones, who was recently shot and as was supposed, killed, to be still alive, but in a critical condition. The letter is dated several days later than the Missouri paper which announced the death. K + Recruits for Walker. We mentioned yesterday, that the Orizaba from New York to Kan Juan, would take out reinforcements to Gen. Walker. One hundred and thirty men left Baltimore on Friday last for New York, it is said to take passage on theO., which was to have sailed next day.— They were chiefly from the interior of Mary land, and were organized in two companies. Rather Unusual. We were taken quite aback yesterday, after a brief absence from our chair, to find it occu pied on our roturn, by an ancient and matron ly lady of the feathered species, commonly called a hen. Never before in all our experi ence, had we such a guest in the sanctum, and it was with some difficulty that we induced her to resign the chair. Cicero, Ciesar, and other great and learned men, have believed in signs und omens, and wo were curious to know what this lion meant and what she wanted. — Perhaps she intended presenting us with a golden egg, thought we. Perhaps Mrs. Par tington is dead, and knowing our affection for her, has taken on this guise, in which to pay us a visit. Perhaps—but the mystery was soon solved. Driven from the “chair” to the “table,” and thence to the floor, our strange visitant indulgod in a few loud remarks that seemed to us very like scolding, and betaking herself to the rear of the sanctum, ensconsced herself snugly, and in duo time, announced to the world the birth of one rnoro incipient and hopeful chicken, making almost as much clat ter as if her egg contained a French Prince Imperial. While our visitor was lying perdu, her ‘boss’ came in with angry brow, and made u vigorous search for her ladyship, but we gave him no encouragement, not having the heart to disturb her. Should this nest-egg lead to a brood, great things may bo expected of them. Reared in the very midst of presses, printing ink, and papers, they will doubtless be most intelligent chickens. Gas. The demand for Gas in Charleston has so increased since the first meter was built, two others have been found necessary, their total capacity being 470,000 cubic feet; and it is now thought that the demand will warrant the organization of anew Company. Hitherto the cost of raw material has rendered tho manufacture less remunerative than was ex pected ; but tho new company having obtain ed a {latent for the manufacture of gas from wood, it is expected that their profits will be much enhanced, wood being so much cheaper than coal. Georgia Items. Hiß Excellency Gov. Johnson, and the Hon. James L. Seward, left Savnnah yesterday morning, to attend the Rail Road celebration, at Brunswick, which comes off to-morrow. The Superior Court of Chatham county will postpone its criminal docket till the 3d Mou day in Juuo next, in order to accommodate the Supreme Court with a room in which to hold its sittings. Drs. James E. Godfrey, and Joseph J. West, two young physicians of Savannah, have left for Paris, whero they will complete their med ical education. The Chatham Artillery, Capt. John E. Ward tired 70 minute guusin the l’ark(Savanuah) on Monday ’ast, as a tribute of respect to the memory of the’ late Gov. Troup, who was an honorary member of the Corps. The News, (from which wo get the above items) says:— Besides the unusually largo turn out of the active members of the corps, wo observed that one of the guns—the beautiful piece which having been taken from the French by the British, was surrendered to the Americans by Cornwallis, and subsequently presented by Gen. Washington to the Chaihaiu Artillery— was manned by veteran honorary n embers of the company, in citizens dress, with swords. The evening was remarkably pleasant, and the tiring was conducted with the regularity and military precision which characterises the evolutions and exercises of this thorough-drill ed and efficient corps. A meeting of the citizens of Savaunah was to be held yesterday, to consider the propriety of a city subscription to the Atlantic and Gulf Rail Road. Tho Annual Convention of Stockholders in the Ga. R. R. & llkng. Company is now being held in Augusta, and is numerously attended. The river at Augusta is in good order, and the boats still contiue to make their regular trips. A barrel of oil in tho Drug store of A. A. Solomons & Cos., Savannah was discovered to be on fire on Sunday morning last, and fortu nately extinguished in time to prevent dam age. The discovery was made by two pass ing policemen. Arrest of a Thief.—On Thursday eve ning last our City Marshal, having been no tified by telegraph, stationed himself at the Railroad depot and on the arrival of the ears from Macon, promptly arrested a young man named P. M. Smith, charged with having rob bed flie trunk of Fedrick Terry, at Macon of S2OO in gold. Upon the person of Smith was found $lB5 in gold, and a bunch of skeleton keys. He is a young man about 17 or 18 years old with an intelligent expression of countenance, but we fear he is already a oom firrned rogue.— Griffin Union. Commercial Bank, Selma. We learn from the Reporter, that books of subscription to this Bank were closed on Sat urday last, the sum of $305,000 having been taken—sufficient to authorize a commence ment of operations. The election of a Presi dent and Directors will be held on the 14th proximo. Rail Hoadbi and their Profits. Some enthusiasts, unmindful of the old : adage, “ too much of a good thing is good for nothing,” have longed for the day when horse power and mule-power will be superseded by steam; when MoAdam shall hide his dirniiiT ished head ; turn pikes, plank-ronds and toll gates be dimly remembered antiquities; and every man, in short, have his own railway, running by his own door. They think that will be a “good time,” and are impatient for its coining; but on its arrival, if ever it come, woe to the owners of railroad shares. Our enthusiastic friends have buttoturn their eyes to Ragland, and behold, if not full realization of their hopes, no mean approximation to it. England is literally riddled and beslashed with railroad tracks; every village has its depot, its accommodation trains, its time-tables, &c.— The roads are well constructed, thoroughly equipped, ably managed ; but they do not pay. Tho original holder of shares in any of the ten great English railways, say to the amount of $50,000, now finds himself minus SIO,OOO capital. The original owner in any of the eight chief French roads—-the only ones quo ted in the market—now finds himself plus SOO,OOO, for every $50,000 of original invest ment. The French fares are lower than the English, nor are their roads better managed than those of England, for English tact, skill, new inventions, etc., are all turned to the best advantage by their neighbors. The enormous disparity is solely attributed to the respective policies of the two governments. In England railway completion is fostered, and rival roads are encouraged; the business which might all be done by one company is divided between two, and each is thus less able to work at cheap rates—the end apparently sought by the English policy. In France, on the contra ry, no road is chartered which would material interfere with the business of another, and a general system of consolidation has been adop ted, which virtually reduces the whole number of roads to eight principal ones. There is food for thought in these facts, and a moral not unworthy the attention of Geor gians and the various conflicting interests in the South, generally. The maxim that “half a loaf is better than no bread” has never been in favor, we bolievo, with railroad men; and it behooves all projectors of such works to look ahead, and provide against “short commons.” George P. Morris, in his “Hits at the Times,” tells an amusing story of two rival stage proprietors who began boating each oth er down, till at last ono carried his passengers for nothing; his rival, game to the last, now offered a premium of 25 cents per head, and had tho glorious satisfaction of monopolising the whole travel; foralongtimeno one claimed the premium, but at last an inexorable passen ger pointed to tho published agreement, and demanded his quarter. It was handed him by the chivalrous und “enterprising” proprietor, but that was his last drive. He closed busi ness, and retired broken-hearted into private life—disgusted with the ingratitude of the public, and having for his only consolation, tho remembrance that he had driven liis rival from the field, and pulled him “up short” at tho gratis notch. In view of tho rampant rail road spirit now prevailing in some sections, we have related this story, and will conclude it with that often-quoted but sage scrap of Latinity, Verbum sap. The Charleston and Memphis liail Hoad, From the recent report of the Board of Di rectors, we learn that only one link of this great chain of communication remains to be finished—that is the section from Tuscumbia to Pocahontas, 71 miles. The road is now fin ish from Stevenson, Ala., (where it connects with tho Nashville and Chattanooga road, and by it with the Western and Atlantic,) to Tus cumbia, 129 miles; and from Pocahontas to Memphis 75 miles, with a branch to Somer ville 13 miles. Os tho forwardness of the work on the unfinished gap between Tuscumbia and Pochahontas, the report says : “ Most of this part of your road, as you were informed at your last annual meeting, had theu just beeu let to contract. The work of grading and masonry had progressed steadi ly during the whole year, with but slight in termission from failures of contractors, who have been promptly dismissed and their work re-let to others, until it is now believed that every section of it is in the bands of efficient and reliable contractors, who are progressing with such rapidity as to give satisfactory as surance that they will complete their work in time to lay the track by the Ist of Jauuarv next. It is estimated that tho whole cost of the road will be $5,531,219. The energy with which the Charleston and other stockholders, liberally aided by the State of Tennessee, have prosocuted this important work, is highly creditable to their enterprise and public spirit. We are glad to learn from this report that the work promises to be ultimately a source of profit to the stockholders. Tho business of the Western division for the past 12 months (without an Lnstern oounectiou) has amounted to $256,836, the net profit $140,863, or 12$ per cent, on the cost of construction; and wheu tho line is opened the whole distance from Charleston to Memphis, the greatly in creased business can hardly fail to yield a still larger per cent. Another Slice. On the authority of a letter from Mexico, which it inserts, the Journal of Commerce states that our Minister to Mexico has essen tially adjusted the terms of a Convention by which wo are to acquire auother slice of Mexi can territory—how large is not stated, nor the price to be paid for it. Not much wo hope. If this traffic in Mexi can slices is intended to be continued, we opine that it would be better to make a wholesale trade—buy down as low as Gen. Walker, and make a finish of it. We think Mexico should be content to be gradually absorbed without making us pay for the privilege of American izing and redeeming her. The price should be “nominal.” Severe Storm. New Orleans, May 8 This section ofcouutry was visited by a se vere storm yesterday. The telegraph wires have been blown down, and at Baton Rouge several houses were prostrated. Telegraphic Items. Congressional. —lll the U. S. Senate on Monday, Mr. Cass made a speech on Kansas art sirs. The House refused to suspend the rules to enable Mr. Cliugman to introduce liis resolution for the better protection of Ameri ! cans on the Isthmus. The bill appropria ting s3o, o'b) for keeping opeu the mouths of the Mississippi was passed. The Washington Homicide.— Mr. Her bert has been admitted to bail in the sum of SIO,OOO, and is to appear at the June term of the Criminal Court, to plead to an indictment for manslaughter. Tiif. New York Fillibubtkr Case. —Capt. Tiuklopaugh and the other parties charged with a broach of the neutrality laws in regard to Nicaragua affairs have been found not guil ty. Tiie Panama Riots.— Amos B. Curwiije, formerly Consul at Panama, has been appoint ed a Commissioneer to proceed to Panama, on tiie 20th inst., to take testimony rela tive to the recent riot and robbery. Tin; U. States vs. Postmaster Kendall In this case, the Texas case was continued at the instance of the U. S. District Attorney, although the defence pressed the trial and of fered to admit in evidence the testimony of the absent witnesses heretofore introduced. Fcrtuek per Atlantic.—Peace has been formally proclaimed. Important meetings of political parties pre sage trouble in Parliament. A Blue Book has been published, containing all the Central American documents. It is said that the discussion in the British Parliament, in relation to the fall of Ivars, will be the test question as to the strength of the Ministry ; and on the 28th ult. the debate commenced with a motion for a vote of cen sure. The treaty has also been laid before Parliament. Later advices from India and China state that l'rome had been destroyed by fire; that the insurrection in China was active; that the Imperial troops had been defeated at Shanghai, and that an extensive fire had oc curred at Hongkong. The Liverpool Cotton Market. —Some Circulars report Cotton as simply easier; oth ers quote Jd decline per lb. on the lower grades. The sales since the 26th ult., com prised 27,000 bales of which exporters and speculators took 3,500. Middling Orleans quo ted at C 5-10d, and Middling Upland at o[. On the 30th ult., the market was quiet, with a downward tendency. Congressional. —The senate has passed the House bill, donating 1,500,000, acres of land to lowa, for rail-road purposes. The vote stood, Ayes 31, —Nays 9; among the latter we notice the name of Senator Toombs. Quite an interesting debate sprang up in the Senate on Thursday upon the Danish Sound dues question, in which Messrs. Clayton, Seward, Hale, Bayard, Toombs, and others, took part. The debate hinged on the treaty making power of the President and Senate.— Messrs. Clayton, Bayard, and others held that the parties to the treaty having made it, were competent to unmake it. Mr. Hale held that the President and Senate were incompetent to abrogate it; and that the U. States could only be represented by Congress and the President, in the repealing of treaties. Mr. Toombs ap proved Mr. Hale’s views, and contended that tho Constitution delegated to no one the pow er of repeal, which must be accomplished ac cording to the terms of the treaty itself. He also opposed the whole movement against Denmark as a petty affair, too small for our Government to be engaged in. While admit ing that Denmark had no right to collect a toll, Mr. T. was willing to pay the dues, as they were a mere trifle, and so long as other great and powerful nations were paying their pro portions. He would however be for resistance if the United States were discriminated against. Georgia and Florida Railroad. From the late report of Col. Tift, President of this Road, we learn that it will be comple ted from Americus to Albany by Oct. Ist 1827, after which according to the report, the nett earnings will amount to over 16 per cent, per annum. But, if any one is sceptical, says the Report, he may reduce the cotton receipts even to 40,000 bales, and the return freight and passengers in the same proportion, and he will still find a nett profit of $46,460, or more than 11 per cent, per annum upon the capital invested. “The charter of our Company extends from Albany to Thomasville, 57 miles, and thence to the Florida line, in tho direction of Talla hassee, 14 miles, making a Trunk line from Alnericus via Albany and Thomasville of about 106 miles, with the privilege of branch roads which is enjoyed by the Savannah, Al bany and Gulf Railroad Company. This road is destined to form the great North and South avenue for trade and travel between the Gulf coast of Middle Floridaand tho interior of Ga.; and if the two great projects now in progress —the Savannah, Albany and Gulf Railroad and the Brunswick and Florida Railroad should cross our Road, tho first through Al bany to Mobile, according to their charter, I und the other through Thomasville, it would > add value to the stock of the several roads ; I they would eross at right angles to our roadj j and thus form mutual feeders.” Mayor Wood has had his salary iucreased from $3,000 to $6,000 during his absence from New York, and is also spoken of for Gov ernor by prominent Democratic papers of New York state. So much for doing one’s duty. | Mayor Wood has done no more; yet so unusu al a policy in these days of political and mu nicipal profligacy, has achieved for him an al most world-wide reputation. Ihe Richmond Enquirer is opposed to the recognition of Nicaraguan independence. Mr. Evans, Lnited States Senator from South Car j olino, is understood to be on the opposite side and anxious to be heard on the floor of the Senate. It is said that he will compare the course ot the Administration with thatof Gen. Jackson s during the Texan struggle for lib erty, and endeavor to demonstrate that the administration policy is not truly Democratic. Clerical Effrontery. A temperance paper in Portland, Maine, edited by a clergyman, says: “W e afiirn that it is the minister’s duty to tell the men how to vote, and if men vote wrong they should be rebuked for it, as for any oth er evil deed. The Nicaragua Meeting in New York. We have before us the full proceedings of this meeting, but cau only give the gist of the Resolutions, as follows: Preamble —Whereas, Every oppressed peo ple who are struggling for their natural rights and the enjoyments of civil liberty, have a right to ask the aid and assistance of any man or any people on the face of tho earth; and whereas, to granrt such aid and assistance’ is the universal and natural right of all men and all people ; therefore, Resolved Ist. That after ten years struggle against oppression, the people of Nicaragua had aright to invite General Walker to aid them. 2d. That Gen. Walker thus invited had a right to go, and is entitled to all honor, be cause of liis going, and liis success and brave ry. 3d. The United States should acknowledge Nicaraguan Independence, and repel the right of Britain or any other country to hold them to account for such acknowledgement. 4th. Nicaragua should bo in the hands of an acknowledged and friendly power, in order to the protection of American Commerce, and the preservation of quiet on this continent. sth. That we look upon our so-called neu trality law's, fastened upou us by Great Bri tain when we as a nation were comparatively in our infancy, and for which England is bound by no reciprocal law, as evinced by the recent developments regarding her secret aid to Cos ta Rica, as prejudicial to the rights and inter ests of our citizens; as wholly at variance with the great principle of our institutions, and as unbecoming the dignity of a great and liberal people. 6th. It is .she duty of the American Govern ment to protect its citizens wherever they may be. 7th. That the cold-blooded butchery of our fellow citizens at Virgin Bay, on Lake Nicara gua, by the savage Costa Ricans, and that, too, under the orders of their superior officers, was a wanton outrage upon humanity that ought not to go unpunished. [Applause.] Bth. That it is time the aggressive and in terfering spirit of the British Government in the Southern portion of this continent should receive a check ; and that the savage warfare waged by Costa Rica against the Republic of Nicaragua, aided and encouraged by that Gov ernment, demands the rebuke of this nation, and calls loudly for the practical enforcement of the Monroe doctrine. 9th. That in his present critical position, sustained by his brave band of chivalrous Americans and native Nicaraguans, nearly sur rounded by ten times as many barbarous Costa Ricans, with British rifles in their hands, and foreign mercenaries in their ranks, Gen. Walk er needs prompt and liberal material aid ; and remembering the aid which our forefathers invoked, and to which Koscicusko and LaFay ette so nobly responded, we, as citizens of New York, hereby pledge ourselves, to the best of our abilities, that he shall have such aid, and we confidently look to the citizens of our sister States to join us in our efforts in behalf of those who are suffering in the double cause of liberty and humanity. [Loud applause.] Two other resolutions were also adopted, which were introduced by Gen. Walbridge, who remarked that he had offered them in Congress, but without success. The first, enunciates the principle that an American ves sel, engaged in lawful commerce, carries her protection at her mast head, and her colors are the evidence of her nationality; it also de nounces as obsolete, the so-called rights of impressment, search, detention and visitation, by foreign powers, claiming their exercise to be just cause of war. The second resolution, denounces the intro duction of European systems of Government into the Western Continent, and claims that the sovereignty of Cuba should never pass into other hands than the United States, should her sovereignty ever be transferred. Thieving Negro Caught. A runaway negro, calling himself Tom, who says he belongs to Mr. David Williams, of Co lumbus, was yesterday placed in jail as a run away and thief. On the 25th ult., the store of Mr Whitner, corner Bull and York sts., was broken open and robbed of a gold chain and key, a silver watch, a fine pistol, and about $75 in cash. The key and chain were to-day found in possession of William, a slave who had them of Tom as security for money loaned, also a superior watch belonging to Tom, believed to have been stolen either in Columbus or this city. The accused will un dergo a formal trial on Wednesday.— Geo. $ Journal \Wi. Frank Ball, well known in the cities of the Northern and Eastern States as the principal mesmeric subject of Leroy Sun derland at lectures which he gave in 1846, and ’47 and 48, has commenced publish ing a series of papers entitled “The Ad ventures and Revelations of Frank A. Ball as a ‘Mesmeric Subject,’ ” Sunderland and he made more converts to mesmerism than were made by any other ten persons in that time. He now states that he never was in the mesmeric sleep, but did all the experiments by collusion; and he ex plains how it was done, and appeals to a number of witnesses to confirm the truth of what he says. He makes affidavit to the truth of his first paper which is confirmed in many of its most material points by a respectable gentleman now residing in New York. A letter from Washington 3ays that tho Su preme Court will receive no new motion nor hear argument after the 9th instant, and will adjourn on the 15th. It is doubtful whether an opinion will bo given on the Missouri slave case. The Attorney General designs, if tho arrangements of the Court will permit, to occu py one of the remaining days in arguing the case of the Marshal of Wisconsin, against Booth, involving the Constitutionality of the Fugitive Act. No counsel is engaged on the other side. Among the many preparations now in use for tho restoring, preserving and beautify ing the hair, thereare none that we can recom mend with more confidence than Rrof.
