COLUMBUS: Ei-triay Morning, Miy I*so. LARUBBT CITV CIRCULATION. Jury Duty. Wo gave in yesterday's issue the decision of his Honor Judge Colquitt, as to the liability of members of Volunteer corps and Firo com panies, to perform jury duty in the new Crim inal Court of the city. Via learn that his Honor’s decision will be cariied up to the Su preme Court for confirmation or reversal. City Court. Retailing without License. The State vs. John McOovran. J. A. Fox, Ksq., Solicitor General for the State. L. T. Downing, Esq., for the Defendant. Verdict—Guilty. Fined $26 and costs. In the above case, a point of some interest was decided by the Cort. We don not under take to give it in legal phrase, nor to quote the Court. It seems that there was more than one offence; and the first indictment was quashed, it having been proven that the par ticular offence theroin specified, had already been atoned for, by payment of a fine in the Mayor’s Court. The Judge held that in cases of retailing without license, where the lefend ant ha 9 been acquitted or convicted in the May or’s Court, such previous acquittal or convic tion, may be plead in bar of further action in the Criminal Court of the city, for and on account of the same offence, as to identity of offenco in point of time. That is to say, the man who lias retailed without license on the 4th of March, for instance, and has been fined therefor in the Mayor’s Court, can not be again punished for that offence. Rut if it ho proven that he also retailed without liuccnse, on any day previous to March 4th, and that such pre vious retailing had not been before the Mayor, the case is cognizable in the City Court, and cun there be tried. The City Court having concurrent jurisdiction with the Superior Court, it cannot pass upon a case which would bo donied trial in tho latter Court. Trial would bo denied for unlicensed retailing, pre viously punished by tho Mayor. The Late Vetoes. The Washington correspondent of the Charleston Courier, alluding to the President’s veto of the St. Clair Flats bill, and the bill for deepening the mouth of the Mississippi, says : Os course, if he vetoes these, no improvement bill will escape him. These two bills were passed first, as pioneer hills, because they were believed to be ns national in their character as any works could be. Both have heretofore been prosecuted under appropriations from Ihe government. An attempt will be made to pass the bills by constitutional majorities, notwithstanding tho President’s .objections But this will fail. Somo opposition inny be made against Mr. Pierce's nomination at tho Cincinnati Conven tion on this score. It is doubtful whether the Democratic party arequito prepared to sustain so strict a construction of tho Constitution on this subject. Off for Kansas. We learn from tho Atlanta Intelligencer, that a company of twenty-five enterprising young men, from Morriwether county, passed through that place last Tuesday, on their way to Kansas, under the command of F. A. Boy gan. Sam Houston. The Houston (Texas) Telegraph of tho 12th inst., says: “ From a private letter received in this city from Washington, I). C., we learn that Sam Houston has declared himself an in dependent candidate for the Presidency.” Trouble in the Atlanta Medical College. Tho Intelligence of ‘2lst, says: We very much regret that certain reports prejudicial to this institution have for the last three days been in circulation throughout this city. Thoso reports refer to the means resorted to for tho procurement of subjects. No better effort to injure the College could be desired, than the charges that have been bruited about Asa simple act of justice we are requested to ask of our fellow eitizeus a suspension of all ill fecliug and opinion in the premises till an authorative and official statemout of the truth involved can be prepared, which will soon be done. England and the United States. The London Daily Nows lias tho following comment upon tho demand for Mr. Crampton’s recall:— “ That which Mr. Crampton did was done openly and frankly. Ho announced to the Cabinet at Washington that the Queen's gov ernment would be glad to receive recruits in Halifax for a foreign legion, and for months and months he explained all his plans to Mr. Marcy- -showed Mr. Marcy Lord Claret lon’s instructions on no account to ruu any risk of infringing the laws of the United States. He remained in the most confidential communica tion with Mr. Marcy on the subject; and ns soon as it became apparent that the United States government were averse to tho scheme, it was abandoned, and the depot at Halifax was broken up. To ask, under such circum stances, for tho recall of Mr. Crampton, is really to invite the English Cabinet to disgrace i self for tho aiuuseiueut and gratification of the government at Washington, and we confi dently trust that the good ense of tho Ameri can people will see the matter in this light.” This last argument is certainly very ingeni ous. It is not a very pleasant alternative that is offered—acceptance of the British construc tion of the enlistment difficulty, or non acceptance for want of “ good sense.” But as there are two sides to a question, it will be well to hear from Mr. Marcy, who may have an issue of veracity to make, such as has been forced upon Mr. Clayton. Strange Bird. There is in the possession of Mr. J. N. Low is, of this place, says the Yorkvilie (S. C.) Citizen, a bird that is evidently exotic. Al though it can fly, it was caught about four miles from town without any difficulty. Its bulk is about that of a pigeon, body of a beau tiful dark blue, shauks green, long and slender, claws 1J inches; its bill is red, tipped with green. It appears to preferfighting to running; and the mystery is, how it evergothere, as its legs could never have carried it somehundreds of miles, and its wings are too short for a flight of more than a few hundred yards. It is well worthy the attention of Ornithologists. Ladies Skip! A Correspondent writes: “1 notice in the Sun, a laudable ambition to be a reformer. You need wish no better field than tho present status of female health, and the ways of wo men in these latter days. Os course T tliiuk you above any silly simpering about the “lust best gift,” Ac. Ac.. to the end of the nauseous chapter. Give the women a good, honest talk. Tell them whither they are tending; and that the way they now carry on, will not do—not begin to do, and must be reformed. In a word, put upon paper the •id thoughts—that we who love them, as the best and most important part of creation, —cannot help having, Blow up . Runout your longest guns! If need be, car ry your point by storm.’ Then tolow sun dry severities on thin slippers, small bon nets, long dresses, Schottisches, Redo was, “masterly inactivity,” crotchet work, over dressing, flippant talk at balls and parties, and so on and so on, through the long catalogue of female mal-praetioes. Our correspondent certainly suggests a fruit ful theme. But he may, or may not, be sur prised when wo tell him, that for our own part we differ with him toto rcclo, iu his cen sure of the gentler sex. We admit the facts, and we deplore them; but we do not hold the ladies responsible; nor can we, with any ‘how of justice condemn them. The lamentable physical deterioration of American women, is a source of sorrow to every thinking mind, and is the burden of many an editorial. As the fair sex are but human, we must admit also, that they have their share of follies, frailties, feeblenesses. Rut so far from visiting upon their heads the blame for these follies, we lay it upon men —not to tlatter, nor to in gratiate ourselves in the good opinion of the fair, but simply because the truth is the truth, and wo would not wittingly be guilty of in justice. We hold that men are to blame for ninety-nine one hundreths of the evils coin plained of, and we undertake to make our as sertion good. It is the sterner sex who need a “plain talk.” Let us look at the facts. Mr. A., has a daughter to be educated. He will talk to you by the hour about female fol ly, but what does he r/o? He lias bis daugh ter educated in tbe same manner, as the daugh ter of Mr. 8., his neighbor. You do not find him inquiring what is best, or what is right. All he troubles himself to know, is, the man ner of other people’s doing; and as a conse quence most young ladies are trained up, as drosses are made, according to the latest pre vailing pattern. The head of the house, if he wishes reform, should himself inaugurate it. “ A young gentleman goes into a ball-room. Whom does he seek ?—the wise, the amiable, the good, the intelligent? Not he. lie looks up the pretty, the “accomplished,” the fash ionable, the elegantly dressed, the rich. It is the truth, and we defy contradiction of it, that a plain woman, iu a plain dress, without rent-roll, is no more noticed in “ society,” to our eternal shame bo it said, than a statue— not so much, if the statue be a rare one. Men complain of the ridiculous fashions. But let a woman depart from them, and she finds herself a laughing-stock. We venture to say that if a lady were to array herself in the bonnet, only, of ten years ago, and prom enade Brodway, she would not only be stored at, and made the target for vulgar joke and comment, but be dished up in the morning pa pers—perhaps as one of the strong-minded. We hear a deal of complaint about women secluding themselves, not taking sufficient ex ercise, &c. &c. What is the masculine prac tice in this respect? How many men can you lay your finger on, that will give up their day books and ledgers, for an hour’s stroll with their wives? Not one in twenty. The wife is left at home, most of the day, and often a large part of the night, that the husband may pursue his darling object—inordinate wealth, llow many men retire when they have got enough, and devote themselves to domestic pleasures, and efforts to make homo what homo should be? Not so many as one in twenty. These remarks might be indefinitely extend ed ; but this, every reader can do for himself. The subject needs not elucidation, but serious thought; and we shall conclude it with one or two observations, which though palpably true, and generally known, are very seldom thought The female nature is very different from the male. The one is passive, the other active ; the one negative, the other positive; the one recipient and defensive, the other aggressive and militant, lu a word, men were made to woo, and women to be won—barring occasion al exceptions of mannish women, and woman ish men. The controlling element in a wo man’s nature, is desire to please the other sex; and this is inborn, inwoven, and she is nut culpable for it. Divine wisdom so ordain ed, and iu aid of this, woman lias been given a nicer and quicker perception, than man. Obedient to these laws, women, a majority of them, consult not their own taste, so much as their idea of what will make them acceptable in the eyes of the other sex. Was there ever a woman known, who did not strive to look well, and be handsome. Why? Because beauty is the first of virtues? No. But be cause men have made it so. Let us then, who are so unxious for reform, begin it ourselves. Let us remove the beam from our own eyes, that we may see clearly the mote in tho other sex. Let men show by their acts, that they prize worth above beau ty—amiability above wit—simplicity above gandincsß—modesty above elegancy true taste above display— warmth of heart, and cultivated mind, above wealth—and jolly, jo vial, boisterous, ruddy health, above meritri cious delicacy nnd effeminato beauty, and w C will soon have no room to grumble. One more word aud we have done. Men, most men, are often guilty of an offence, which in our eyes, outweighs all the frailty of woman. We allude to the abominable flatteries which they dispense so freely. Let them look after their own skirts, and it will be full early to attack those which they know very, very little about. TELEGRAPHIC! ITEMS. From Washington. May lit. —The President has vetoed the bill for the improvement of the St. Clair 1 lats, nt the mouth of the Mississippi river. It is understood that the President will not veto the net making appropriations lor the im provements in the Savannah river. The ease of Mr. Crampton was considered ’in Cabinet session to-day. it is confidently believed he will he immediately dismissed. The Mouse of Representatives lias refused | leave for the introduction of a resolution for inquiring of the President iu relation to the recent alleged murderous Assaults in Kansas. The House passed joint resolutions nuthor i i/.ijig the Secretary of the Navy to dispatch a vessel to Cape Verde vfith provisions private ly contributed. Mr. Buchanan is indignant at Lord Pal- I merston and Karl Clarendon’s reiterated mis representation as to the arbitration of the dif ficulties with Great Britain, lie says that the whole character of their occasional and accidental reference to this subject warranted him ifi supposing that the object was to sound our Government as to its views and not sub mit a specific proposition. The Hon. John (i. Miller, a member of Con gress from the fifth district of Missouri, died on Sunday last. Later. Mr. Crampton was not dismissed on Satur day, the Cabinet having determined to wait for the arrival of the Asia’s mails before they came to a final decision on tbe matter. Latest from Knnsas. St. Louis, May 10.—A letter inthe Repub lican says that Gov. Shannon had sent an ex press from Lecompton to Lexington with the necessary papers to arrest Robinson and se cure bis return to the Territory. The Committee of Congress are now in ses sion at Leavenworth, and it is understood that when they return to Washington, Mr. Oliver will make a minority report. A letter from Kansas, dated the 9th inst., states that the Missourians having threatened to destroy the testimony of the investigating committee, sealed packages were forwarded to Washington in charge of Robinson. They were not discovered at Lexington, and Mrs. Robinson proceeded with them after the ar rest of her husband. Astor House, N. Y. New York, May 19.—The firm of Coleman & Stetson, the landlords of the “Astor House,” has been dissolved, iu consequence of their in ability to meet tlie acceptances of A. B. Cole man, of the “Burnett House,” in Cincinnatti, Ohio, amounting to $140,000. All the regu lar debts of the Astor House are secured, and Mr. Stetson will continue the business. For Kansas. The Columbia (S. C.) Times of the2lst inst. says : lieu. A. C. Jones, of Laurens, S. C,. arrived yesterday in command of a company of the young men of that district as their Cap tain, bound for Kansas. Every district in the State ought to send out a company to “occupy a place in the picture.” Ceil. .Tones is accompanied by his wife, whose influence cannot fail to operate for good upon the noble young men who have placed themselves under the command of Gen. Jones, The company will leave for Kansas this mor ning, via. Augusta, Ga. The Charleston Standard says: From letters received by persons in Charleston from rela tives who have recently gone on as emigrants militant to Kansas, we learn that they have formed themselves into a Rifle Company, at Atchison, of which F. G. Palmer was elected Captain, R. DoTreville Ist Lieut., R. D. White 2d Lieut., and J. Vanderhorst 3d Lieutenant, and expect soon to be ordered on to take part in the disturbance which is expected soon to be brought to a crisis at Lawrence. At pres ent, it would seem the office of the pro-slavery party to give law and order to the Territory, and they exhibit the ability to perform it. Privateering. The Baltimore American remarks that, un der the principle now established by the allied powers, privateering would be piracy, and this our contemporary presumes, is the object of the agreement to which England and France have come, and which they will no doubt seek to impose upon the world as inter national law. The powers making the declaration have, however, cxpressedly disclaimed for it an obli gatory character upon nations not represented in the Conference, and content themselves with a resolution to apply to such nations, and solicit their acquiesencein the principle. Such an application to this country would be entire ly useless. And if, in the event of war, pri vateering should be treated as piracy and pris oners bung up, the United States government would be compelled to retaliate and hang up every prisoner taken from the government vessels of its enemy. On the shoulders of the party pronouncing privateering piracy, would rest the entire responsibility of the barbarous character which the war, in such an event, whould necessarily assume. Sav. Republican. Little Freak. The Loudon Times in enumerating some of the consequences of the late war, says in the jauntiest maunerpossible : “We may certainly say that we spent last year £35,000,000 more than we should have done but for that little freak of the Emperor Nicholas.” - —— - ♦ ... Minister Crampton. The Blue Book lias been received here, and shows that Mr. Crampton has made some strange statements of the conversations with Mr. Marcy and Gen. Cass, as well as with Mr. Clayton, 110 takes care to inform his govern ment that all our public men give up all the points in dispute as to the rights claimed by Great Britain in Central America. Gen. Cass will have to make an explanation on his own account when the Senate meet again.— H* ash. Cor. Charleston Counter. Jenny Lind Goldschmidt. The Philadelphia Ledger, states that private letters from London speak of Jenny Gold schmidt s success there ns fully equal to her former triumph. Her charities*have been as usual, most noble; matrimony has chastened her caprices : English air nnd diet have re established her health, and her boy is the im age of his mother. Counterfeit Gold. The Rome (Ga.) Courier understands that some of the rascals, who have been through that section passing bogus Gold Dollars, have been arrested at Centre, Ala. These counter feits are likely to deceive the unwary. Thev’ nrc in size and color a sac simile of the genuine coin, but arc without the “ring” and theword Liberty on the head is so badly blurred that it cannot be read. Me would caution our readers to be 011 the lookout, for it is supposed that there are quantities of these spurious coins in the northern parts of Georgia and Alabama. Boston lost by fire during the month of April 5-325,000 worth of property. T KLEG RAPH TC. —♦ Expressly for the Daily Bun. SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE, ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA. —♦- CoLUMiiiA, May 23.

Spann, to the effect, that it was at his, and not Thomas Parker's instance, that J. G. Smith wus arrested in this city. We make the correction with pleasure. Padre Vijil. The New Orleans Delta gives the following account of the Nicaragua Minister at Wash ington : Padre Vijil is a remarkable man, and enjoys a greater imputation, as a thinker and scnol ar, thau most of his countrymen, at home or abroad. He is now in the maturity of his pow ers, being about forty-nine or fifty years of age, and has improved his natural and search ing intellect by comprehensive and varied ob servations of men, manners and things. The Padre was at one time a lawyer prac tising in Granada, we believe, and enjoyed a very great prestige as an accomplished jurist and a skilful speaker, being almost as effective in court as in chambers, in pleading as in ad vice. He became connected with some of the political movements which agitated Central America periodically, and had to choose be tween exile and death as the penalty of his patriotism, or his rashness, or his ambition, or whatever it may t e called. Accordingly he had to leave Central America, and was refused the privilege of returning in the character of a lawyer, or a soldier, or a politician. Only one role remained which he could play with any adequate chance of success, and iu time he resolved to perform it, and re-appear in his native country under the protection of the Church, and in the surplice and stole of the priest. A priest might act as lawyer when occasion required, but it is somewhat novel to find a lawyer with sufficient hardi hood to become a priest. In his new capacity the Padre won many friends and rapidly rose to distinction in the ecclesiastical world, securing universal respect by his charity, his talents and his unquestion able virtues. In diplomacy he soon distin guished himself as much as in theology, and we see the practical result of his sagacity and energy in the recent appointment which he had received from the revolutionary government of Nicaragua. Personally the Padre is a very accomplished individual, with a splendid phys ical as well as mental organization. He is said to be one of the handsomest men in Ni caragua. With his fine well-balanced head, his stately bearing, his polished manners, his insinuating eloquence, he is likely to overtop by a head (if we may use the significant phrase of Homer) all the diplomatists, foreign and domestic, assembled at Washington. Diplomatic Difficulty. It is no doubt true, as we see stated, that Mr. Orampton’s letter, detailing the substance of alleged conversations with Mr. Clayton, about the right of England to Ruatan and the adjacent islands, was written to sustain Lord Palmerston on the American ques tion, against the strong Parliamentary oppo sition with which he was threatened. Mr. Crampton’s letter was well calculated to have that effect, and calculated to appease un indig nation that was fast acquiring a formidable nature throughout England. The interests of the commercial and manu facturing classes of England would be serious ly jeoparded by a conflict between the two countries—and it would be equally disastrous to our own. But the people of Eugland, or at least a large and influential portion of them, were averse to hostile relations, and consider ed that their Government acted wrong iu the enlistment difficulty, and were disposed to consider their Government partially wrong in its construction of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. But Mr. Crampton’s letter removed that opin ion, and they were measurably compelled to sustain the English construction of the treaty, when they were assured that Mr. Clayton him selt admitted that theirconstruction was right. Short as Mr. Crampton’s letter is, it was an unfortunate one for this country. Jf it con tained truth, Mr. Crumpton has been faithless, which we do not believe—if it conveyed a lalsehood, it is enough of itself, consideringits important influence at the present time, and its effect in the future, to have caused an imme diate suspension of Mr. Crampton’s diplomatic relation to this country, even though there were no other considerations which should have reduced it. The position of Mr. Crampton is an anoma lous one. Incarrying out the presumed orders of his government, he violated our neutrality laws, and disgraced his ministerial character; and in making talse reports to his government, about conversations held with public function aries of our country, he has impugned his personal character for veracity and honor. Such a man should not be retained as the accredited minister of England, and in in tercourse with our government.— Aug. Const. Target Firing—Oglethorpe Infantry. The Augusta Constitutionalist of the 20th inst. says: This company celebrated their an niversary, on Saturday last, at a rural retreat some few miles from the city. It is, perhaps, unnecessary to say, that the article’s usually found on “ both sides” of a bill of fare, were in abundance, and that the company fared sumptuously. The target shooting was quite exciting, as there were a number of “crack shots” to con tend for the prizes. Private Benj. Simmons won the Company’s prize—A Silver Cup, inlaid with gold: three shots, averaging 2 10-16 inches. 1 rivate George W. Piet ce, the Company’s Gold Medal: three shots, 3 9-16 inches. Private Robert Walton, the first prize pre sented by the honorary members—A Silver Goblet—three shots, 2*6-16 inches. Corporal A. Force, the 2d prize presented by the honorary members—A Silver Water Dipper—average shots 4 14-10 inches. Private Chas. MeKinne. the 3d prize of the honorary members—A Silver Butter Tub— ! average shots 0 13-10 inches. Honorary member Col. Wtu. Davis, won the first prize presented by the Company— A beau- | tilul Silver Goblet, inlaid with gold—average three shots 4 14-16 inches. Honorary member Moore, (for Mrs. C. Mc- Ivinne) won the second prize of the Company —A Silver Cup—average 5 7-16 inches, The Commission officers’ prize was won by Capt. E. Starnes, of the Oglethorpe Infantry A Silver Goblet and Salver—average shots 5J inches. The shooting was with muskets, off hand, at a distance of sixty yards.
