COLTJMBXJS: Satariliy Morning, May 17, 1H 6. liAKMKHT CITV t'IRCULATION. Our columQH this morning, are unusually full of stirring ami important nows. The reader, in search of the latest intelligence, will always find it under the general caption, ••Telegraphic Items.’ Our acknowledgements are due, and are most grntefully tendered our brethren of the city press, and of the State, for the vory kind manner in which they speak of us and of our recent return to the corps Editorial. Occu pying a neutral position, and determined as heretofore, to keep coolandneyer fling “mud,” we anticipate from our future intercourse and communion with them, through the Sun, a re newal of those pleasures which we have for merly enjoyed, and which havo been among the brightest of our life. ♦ Fresh Meat. Avery considerable portion of mankind live, in accordance w ith Scripture, by the sweat of the brow—really hard, tiresome, enervating, wcaring-nway labor. To support such in health and comfort, much animal food, despite the vegetarians, isabsolutely requisite; but the high prices of this food in very many quarters of the globe, necessitate limited supplies, and ns a consequence, the hard-working man, who deserves a better fate, is meagrely fed, and measurably donied the kind and quantity of diet best adapted to his wants. Asa further consequence, he suffers more from fatigue, lives a shorter life, is less able to work, and hence gets loss pay. The high prices of ani mal food are not caused by limited natural supplies, but the location of them. The earth affords a bounteous store of fish and flesh— enough and to spare,ifor all her children; but this store is not equally distributed; and while thousands of cattle are slaughtered for their hides on tho plains of South America alone, and are there left to rot, in many other countries fresh meat is almost wanting, and the very sniff of “ roast ” or “ boiled ” a lux ury. In Ireland for instance, the “potato and the pig ” are often the poor man’s only food— potato all the year, and pig very seldom—one pig, potatoes plenty. This seems a very un fortunate and unwise arrangement, but is only so at first sight. Tho unequal distribution of various kind of food, leads to exchange, in other words to commerce ami tho carrying trado ; and thus mouths are filled on sea and land; friendly relations established between various points of the compass ; and mankind gradually advance towards their final desti ny—a gigantic, working, harmonious family. Vet hitherto, tho vessels have not mastered tho fresh-moat problem. They could not, to uny great extont, transport live stock; and the laws of decay have put a veto on tho car rying of lresh-meat, butchered. At last how ever, a process has been discovered by which meat may be kept fresh, sweet, and wholesome, from three to eighteen months—long enough to carry it more than once around the globe and of course to any point on its surface. It is very simple, and the discovery of a French man. The meat is “boned” as far as practi cable, then dipped in a bath of boiling gelatine for six minutes, and hung up. At the end of two days, it is dipped in a solution of taunin and water—l3 dwts. of taunin to 2J gallons of water—and again hung up to dry for twen ty to thirty days, and tho process is complete. Rationale —The gelatine forms a pellicle, im pervious to air, and enclosing the meat thor oughly; tho taunin has somewhat the effect which it has upon hides, and is thus found to inorcasothe preservative power of the gelatine. [Wo use tho expression “ boiling gelatine,” but strictly speaking it does not boil. It is put iu a kettle, which is suspended in a larger kettle of boiling water.] The result of this disoovory will be cheap, and plentiful supplies of fresh meat, for the laboring classes every where. Nor is the poor man only interested. Epicures can now enjoy the tit-bits of foreign lands in all their native excellence—tender loins and masticnble steaks from South Amer ican pampas, and even an Apician repast of peacock’s tougues from Africa. A company has beon formed iu France to go into the new trade, and have already several large establishments at various places in Eu rope. We learn too, from the New York Post, that they are about opening a house in Cin cinnati on a large scalo; and we hope, ere long, to try our dentals on a steak front Ohio or Kansas. We have seen many a Georgia steak which was utterly impracticable; and whose makers seemedfairly iudictablefor infringment of the Gutta Percha patents. Wo havo not en larged upon tho necessity and dcsirableuess of animal food for hard-working men, because wo do not consider it an open question; especially in the South, whose sleek and shining Sam bos attest tho value of a due proportion of hog with hominy. The physique of tho South ern slave, is a perpetual rebutter of vegeta rian theories; as his shining face, mory laugh, aud contented disposition are auswers to the whinings of mock philanthophy. Georgians for Kansas. We learn that Capt. Moore, of Upson coun ty, says the Times and Sentinel of the 16th, will start for Kansas, in a few days, with a company of thirty men. Tho citizens of Up son contributed $1,200 iu aid of tho emigra tion. We also learn that Capt. F. A. Boykin, of Merriwethcr county, has raised a company of twenty-five men, and will shortly leave for Kansas. The citizens of the county have furn ished the men with abundant means to make the journey. We also learn that Capt. Cook, at the head of a company of Emigrants, left Adairsville, Ga., on the 6th inst., and that Capt. A. S. Hamilton, at the head of another company, left the same place on the Bth inst. Anew paper for the benefit of the working men of Georgia—now a very large, intelligent and worthy class—has been started at Athens, Georgia. It is called “ The Laborer,” and is published monthly by I. S. Gardner, at fifty cents per annum. The working men should support it, and can cosily run it to a weekly if they will CUSOHGIA ITKMH, A Medical student writing from Philadel phia to Savannah, says that his opportunities for the acquisition of medical knowledge were much better in Savannah than in Philadelphia. “The more f see in the hospitals here (Phila delphia,) tho more 1 have gratefully to ac knowledge, what a great advantage we had iu Savannah over the students here. They are not allowed to make any examination, nor to practico either hand or ear, aud often 1 feel compelled to tell my friends, that 1 urn very glad that I remained last winter in Savan nah.” A writer iu the Republican, takes the above extract as his text for a sermon; and duly sets forth the folly of supposing that nothing at home can ho good— while everything foreign must be very superior. The same sermon has been preached before, but it is well to keep dinging it into tho public ear, until they learn, at least, what is good for them. Monsieur Raymond Thomassy, (Commis sioner for the Italian Salt Work;: aud those of tno French West Indies) furnishes to the Sa vannah Republican, a very interesting article upon tho “savor of tho world,” —its nature, places and quantities in which it is found, its importance in manufactures, agriculture, as a soaaoner, &c., &c. Mr. Thomassy has it in contemplation to establish salt-works below Savannah, on a tract of land finely adapted to that purpose, aud owned, we believe, by the State. We trust Mr. T. will meet with all necessary encouragement; and consider it use less to enlarge upon the desirableuoss of a scheme, which if successful, would so greatly cheapen one of the prime necessities of our people, keep the State always well salted, aud perhaps enable us in due time to supply other states with this great sine qua non of Nature. The Superior Court of Decatur county, ad journed on the Bth after near two week’s ses sion. Two convicts were sentenced by the Court to tho l’ouitentiary,—Char’s Henderson for an assault “with attempt to kill,” —5 years; Aurelius W. McGruder, for “stabbing,”—2 years. The Railroad meetiug which was to have been held at Bainbridge on the 12th, and at which, books of subscription to the Main Trunk Railway, were to have been opened, lias been postponed to tho 17th inst., in con sequence of sickness in the family of Colonel Munnorlyn, Commissioner. Tho Augusta, Atlanta and Nashville Tele graph line, from Augusta to Chattanooga and Tullahoma, Tenn., is now open and in work ing ordor. A Convention of the American party of Georgia has been called, to meet at Macon, on the Bth of July next, “to consider of the ap proaching Presidential election, and such oth er matters as may bo thought conducive to the interest of the State aud of tho Union. Each county to send a number of Delegates equal to its reresentation in both branches of the Leg islature.” We take from the Brunswick (Ga.) Herald the following description of Brunswick as she now appears : “ Our docks are enlivened by the arrival of vessels laden with rails, spikes, &c., for the Brunswick and Florida Rail ltoad, aud by the bustle and activity incident thereto. The ring of iron, as it is placed upon the cars, which stand ready to receive the rails as they are de livered from the holds of the vessels, falls pleasantly upon our ears, as we pen this arti cle. Every rattle of the bars, every ring of the iron, seems to speak in plain language, and to say, “ The road so looked for, and so much desired, is now actually being con structed.” The shrill whistle of the locomo tive wakes tho whole town at daylight, and seems disposed to proclaim to the sleepers that tho indefatigable track men are off to their work on the road. The trussel bridge of two spans of lot) feet each, designated for the St. Ille River, is boing framed at tho saw mill of the Bruuswick Mill Company. The frames of houses are to be oeeu gradually overtopping the beautiful cedars and live oaks which grace our city lots and squares, and other signs of re turning life and animation, are plan ly visible. New stores have been established, and nter chants, attracted by the opening prospects of Brunswick, and the salubrious climate, arrive here by the boats, inquiring for stores to rent. Messrs. Savage & Harris have almost com pleted their large warehouse at the foot of Monk street, and we have information that other warehouses and wharves are about to be constructed. Brunswick is “looking up,” aud wo predict that the day is not far distant when she will take her rank among the mari time ports of the Southern Atlantic coast.” The LaGrango Reporter states that it is in contemplation by the Quarterly Conference of the M. E. Church in that city, to purchase tho LaGrange Female College ntid present it to the Georgia Conference. “Fivo thousand sub- Ageuts will be appointed in various sections ot the State to solicit contributions from those who may be disposed to give their aid to the undertaking. The College is situated on a hill commanding a beautiful view of the towu and country, with boarding arrangements for one hundred young ladies. In fact, the build ings are extensive, with laboratory, libraries, and one of tho most elegant Chapels in the South.” A Strange Head. The Napoleon (Ark.) Sentinel, of March 21, says : “ Wo were shown by Dr. Lebrader, a day or two since, a most remarkable and singular head—that of Foucher, a celebrated Chief of the Creeks. The singularity of the head con sists in two perfect mouths—a front and rear mouth, with a remarkable fact that it made no difference to his eating or feeding opera tions which mouth he used, as either answered the same purpose ; hut when ever he imbibed from the back mouth drunkenness ensued much sooner, than if he had taken it from the front. Such a head is worthy of the study of anato my of the medical faculty.” ‘V e find it so difficult to take in at one swal low, the two swallows above, we shall require a “ rear mouth” ourselves, to effect it. “My dear, said Mrs. Dogberry’ to her daughter, “ you should not hold your dress so high crossing the street.” “ Then ma, replied tho maiden, “ how shall l show the beauty of my flounced panta lettes that I have almost ruined my eyesight to make ? I’m sure I don’t care if the beaux do look at me.” TELEGRAPHIC ITEM H. From Washington. Washington, May 14. In tho United States Senate to-day, Mr. Clayton denied tin-truth of thestntement made by Mr. Crompton to Lord Clarendon, that he had admitted the right of England to the Bay Islands before the . igning of the Treaty o( 185(1. Mr. Clayton proved by Mr. Crittenden that Mr. Crompton distinctly admitted in Feb ruary last, that the statement that he (Mr. Clayton) had ever admitted a British title to Ruatun, was unfounded. The House passed the hill granting a million acres of land to Alabama and Florida, in aid of the construction of Rail Roads in these States. There is extreme danger that the bill for the removal of the obstructions at the mouth of the Mississippi, will be vetoed. A message on Nicaraguan affairs will be sent to the House to-morrow, recommending, it is said, a forci ble maintenance of the Clayton Treaty. Padre Vijil, presented his credentials to-day, and was received and recognized as Minister of Nicara gua. Tiie President, in his reception speech, declared his intention to preserve the neutrali ty laws. The United States steamship Susquehanna has been ordered to sail from Philadelphia to morrow for Nicaragua. The English papers received by the Atlan tic, publish the Queen’s warrants placing the colony of the Bay Islands under the authority of the Governor of Jamaica, and tho matter has occasioned considerable excitement in this city. From California —By the Empire City at New Orleans we have California dates to the 21st alt. News from California, unimportant, The George Law for New York has on board nearly $2,000,000 iu gold. The < tregon war continues. A body of reg ulars had been defeated by the Indians at Rogue River, ami twenty-eight of them killed. Cassades had been captured by the Indians, destroyed by fire, and several residents mas sacred. It was reported that a thousand In dians were approaching Dalles from the North. Several other fights had occurred, hut the whites were generally victorious. In Washington Territory the Indians were breaking out upon the settlements iu every di rection. The latest advices state that Col. D. Bucha nan had defeated the Indians at Rogue River and relieved the citizens in that vicinity. Our intelligence from Centi-al America is meagre. The Panama papers arc filled with the official correspondence of the dignitaries of State, the commander of the steamer and others, in relation to the reeent riots. From Nicaragua there is nothing new. The Very Latest from Kansas.—A cor respondent of the St. Louis Democrat, w r riting from Lawrence, May 7th, states that the grand jury had found indictments on a charge of high treason against Ex-Gov. lleedcr. Gov. Robison, Senator Lane, Roberts, arid other Free State men. News had been brought to Lawrence by Mis sourians, that secret hand bills were in circu lation, and forces were marshaling in the bor der counties, and the people had been warned to prepare for defence. K. N. State Convention of Pennsylvania. —Harrisburg, May 13,—The Kuow Nothing Stato Convention is in session to-day at Edie with closed doors ; sixty delegates in atten dance. A. W. Benedict, has been selected as President. Outsiders are in doubts as to the object of the Convention, but it is generally conceded that the twelfth section wing of the party predominates. Gov. Johnson and Gen. Small are among the delegates. Later. —Resolutions were adopted ratifying the nomination of Fillmore and Donelson ; de nouncing the administration for repealing the Compromise of 1850; aud condemning the Kansas Nebraska act as an outrage on the peo ple. A substitute was offered by Gov. Johnson, approving the call for a Convention in New York on the 12th of June, which was rejected. Johnson and fourteen other Edie delegates then retired. The ticket of the Union and State Conven tion was then ratified, after which the Conven tion adjourned. The Edie delegates held a meeting, aud are preparing an address to the people of the State. Highly interesting from Kansas. Iu connection with the dispatch above, we publish the following very full statement from the telegraphic column of the Petersburg Ex press: St. Louis, May 10.—Star of the West, with Kansas dates to Saturday last, arrived to-day. She brings important news. Gov. llohinson and family took passage on the Star at Lexington. Whilo on the way hither. Gov. Robinson was waited upon by a committee appointed by the citizens, and noti fied that they should detain him on the ground. They stated that he was fleeing from the Ter ritory to avoid arrest on an indictment for treason, which had been found against him by the Grand Jury of the United States District Court. Robinson replied that he had boen in formed by one of the jury, that an attempt had been made to find a true bill, but that it had failed. This dhl not satisfy the committee, and they insisted that Robinson should remain. Ho finally consented on persuasion of Mr. Perkin son, the captain of the boat, and Mr. Barnard, of Baltimore. The committee agreed to send a messenger to Kansas, to ascertain if an in dictment had been found; if not, all the ex penses of detention, were to be paid. The •ommittee consisted of Gen. Shields, Mr. Sawyer, and a number of the most respecta ble citizeus of the place, who reported that a dispatch from Loavenworthhad been received, stating that an armed body of men were eri route for Lawrence, for the purpose of de stroying tho evidence taken by the committee. While Reeder wits in attendance at the session of the committee at Lecompton, on tho even ing of the Bth, the Deputy Marshal served a writ on him to appear before the Grand Jury at that place, to answer a charge for contempt, in having fai ed to comply with a summons of the Grand Jury, previously served ou him ll"eder .efused to obey the writ, aud appealed to the Committtee to sustain him, but they de cided that they had no power in the case. Messrs. Howard and Sherman, however, ex pressed it as their opinion, that Reeder was protected from arrest by hh privilege as an officer: but Oliver dissented and said that the committee would not stand between him and the Marshal. Mr. Reeder said that although his life was in danger in Lecompton, he would remain ou his privilege in attendance on the sittings of the committee, and warned the Marshaf and his assistant, not to touch him at their peril. The Marshal left, but was expected to return on the ffth with a body of United States Dra goons. Judge Lecompte charged the Grand Jury on the sth, to indict all State officers and mem bers of the Legislature for high treason; but up to the 9th, no such indictment had been iound by the court, so far as the proceedings had been made public. ° TELEGRAPHIC. ----- ■+■ —— • Expressly for the Daily Bun. THREE DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE, ARRIVAL OP THE ASIA. Columbia, May ltl, 1856. The Asia has arrived at New- York with Liv erpool dates to the 3d inst., being three days later. Liverpool Cotton Market. —The Cotton Market was dull and depressed. Sales of the week 42,000 bales. Lower grades have de clined Jd.; better qualities are unchanged. Fair Orleans was quoted at 7d.: Middling, 6 5-10. Consols closed at 92jj. ALABAMA ITEMS. Tho Circuit Court at Montgomery commenced its session on Tuesday, Judge Pettus on the Bench —the docket is said to be large and im portant, and may require six weeks to dispose of. This is judge P’s first appearance on the woolsack in Montgomery, and the press there give him a warm welcome. Mr. Augustus A. Griffin has bought an in terest in the Troy (Pike county,) Bulletin. The Tallapoosa Times is tho name of anew weekly just launched at Dadeville, by Leroy Gresham, Esq. It will support Fillmore and Donelson in the coming campaign. The Florence Gazette 10th, reports “ tre mendious ” rains in that section, with some hail, and adds—“ the River is higher than for twelve months past, and were it to rise much more the crops in the river bottom would be overflowed, and consequently destroyed. The fine Tennessee River Packet, R. M. Patton, No. 2, with such gentlemanly officers, was at our landing on Thursday. Capt. Bar nard has consented to make a trip to Cincin nati expressly for the accommondation of per sons going to the Convention.” The Students of the University of Florence, have put forth the first number of the Southern College Magazine, edited by four members of the Senior Class. The subscription price is $1 per annum. The Cassville (Ga.,) Standard is pitching into the Dadeville (Ala.,) Banner, on account of the latter’s “bad spelling and bad grammar.” If a man means well and makes himself intel ligible, we don’t know hut that is enough. These oddities of spelling and grammar, like cross eyes in some human faces, have a cer tain ludicrous effect, which is not displeasing. Indeed the fun of the Standard’s attack is its reiterations of the Banner’s blunders. For instance, the Standard says : “Speaking of a hail storm, the editor says— ‘ Many of the stones is said to have measured six inches in circumference.’ Is they, indeed? Are that a fact, Mr. Banner ? “He thinks that ‘circumstances alters cases.’ Does they ?” , Tlio Dallas Gazette joins iu the hue and cry, about the removal of the Cahawba Land Office, and is hard down on “Mr. Shorter.” The Clayton Banner therefere says, in explanation and defence:— It is well known that the greater part of land to be entered at Cahawba, lies in this section of the State, and iu procuring tho re moval of the Land Office from Cahawba to Greenville, Col. Shorter desired only to equal ize the inconvenience in going to and from the Land Office. Political influences had no agen cy in effecting the removal, and the approval of Col. Shorter’s energy here is not by any means confined to any political party. Mr. Lewis S. Robbins, discoverer of the pro cess of manufacturing oil from rosin, is on a visit to Mobile, in company with several gen tlemen of means and influence from New Or leans, for the purpose of forming a Company in the former city, and establishing an oil manufactory. The News speaks highly of the project and of the new oil. From the Constitutionalist. Convention of the Stockholders of the Georgia Railroad. The Stockholders of the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company met iu this city on Tues day last. We publish in another column the report of Judge John P. King, the President of the Company, and submit the following ab stract of the report of Mr. George Yoiige, the general Superintendent. He states that no expense has been spared to keep up and im prove condition of property, and with the close of an unprecedented heavy business the stock generally is in excellent condition.

The gross earnings are an increase of $101,507 98 over that of last year. The Superintendent states that the business of the “ road suffers from imperfect connec tions at Augusta,” as explained iu bis last re port. During the year, there have been twenty freight cars built to replace cars worn out and destroyed in service. In the construction and outfit, there have been expended for motive power $32,157,83; for buildings $8 734 39- for cars $32,300 ; for track $119,468,71.’ The stock ot Freight Cars has been increas ed by the addition of 20 Box and 20 Platform ( ars; and make for efficient service 16 8 Wheel Passenger Cars, 5 8 do.
