Monday Morning, June S, 1H56.
LARORNT CITY CIRCULATIO*.
We attended the exhibition and concert giv
en on Friday evening, of the pupils of Mr.
Keiuerer'a Juvenile Singing School, and were
much edified and pleased at the novelty of the
exhibition ns well as the very apparent im
provement of the pupils. Mr. K. seems per
fectly at home in the midst of the juveniles,
and they appear delighted with the exercises.
Upon the whole, we think the small pittance
required as tuition, well spent.
The New Washing Machine.
We desire to call the attention of the public,
and more especially of mechanic's, to this new
machine now in daily operation at tho l’erry
House, where it has completely entrapped the
affections of the washer-women. The public,
we know, are somewhat weary of washing
machines, and have been much disappointed
in them. Still wo believe it possible for hu
man ingenuity to invent a satisfactory mechan
ical washer, and this machine realy seems to
us to meet every want. It is simple, not lia
ble to get out of order, docs it work thorough
ly and at the same time without injury to the
fabric ; nnd greatest desideratum of all, it is
easily worked, and compels the operator to
maintian an upright and healthy position. In
stead of promoting back-ache and side-ache,
we consider it a euro for them, and the exer
cise taken by the operator os highly conducive
to health.
Believing the machine a first-rate one, and
that money is to be made out of it, we should
be pleased to see some of our mechanics take
hold, and while clearing a handsome profit for
themselves, also oonfer a great benefit on the
public. We do not give an elaborate descrip
tion of the machine, as we hope the reader will
satisfy himself by personal inspection.
Wo see it stated in an Alabama exchange,
that a number of shares of the stock of the
Central Bank of Alabama, located in Mont
gomery, sold recently in Mobile, at slls per
share. The Bank has been operation only
about nine months.
Two men—named Jacob Freeze and James
Lawrence, charged wi s h the murder in the
most cruel manner, of a negro boy, the proper
ty of the former, decamped from Shelby coun
ty. Ala. recently. They ate said to have left
■it the direction of Georgia. They are thus
described— Freeze is stout built, 35 or 4b
years old, weighs about 140 pounds. Law
rente is goodlooking, weighsabout ISOpounds,
and is about 1U or 20 years old.
The Selma Sentinel understands that the
oitizuns of the neighborhood have offered u re
ward of s2<>o for the apprehension of tho two.
or $l6O for Freeze.
Wheat Crop in Texas.
Tho Houston (Texas) Telegraph, learns
from an intelligent gentleman from Tarrant
County, that the prospect of the wheat crop in
that county is good, and much better than was
anticipated two months previous. It had re
covered from the apparent damage by the se
verity of the winter, and is promising a good
yield.
From Central America.
Advices have been received at New Orleans
by the Granada, from Virgin Ray to the Bth
ult. The Costa Ricans had retired front Nica
ragua to Costa Rica, and 300 wounded Costa
Ricnns had been shipped from San Juan del
Sur to Punta Arenas in Costa Rica. Walker’s
loss at Rivas is stated at 100 killed and wound
ed, nnd that of the Costa Ricans at 650. The
accounts in the Panama Star and Herald are
very confused and unsatisfactory. Neverthe
less, it appears to be certain that the Costa
Ricans have evacuated Nicaragua. There is
nothing to throw any light on the actual state
of affairs in Nicaragua, hut it appears that
the Costa Ricans are not very well satisfied
with the result of their invasion, and that the
state of affairs in Costa Rica is not very prom
ising. Business, it appears, is entirely sus
pended, money and credit is wanting, and
trouble is anticipated
Cause of Crampton’s Dismissal.
The Washington correspondent of the
Charleston Standard, in a letter of the 27tli
ult., says “the reply of Lord Clarendon to Mr.
Marcy, was considered by tho President as an
ample apology, so far as the government of
Great Britain was concerned, and so it was
received. But as Mr. Ornmpton was personal
ly disagreeable and objectionable to us, he is
merely returned to his government that they
may supply his place by another. Many agroed
with t e Administration that the apology was
only good so far as international law was con
cerned, aud that Mr. Crampton remained per
sonally as obnoxious as ever.”
Nioaraguan Meeting in Memphis.
We learn from tho Memphis Eagle and En
quirer that an adjourned meeting of the friends
of Nicarngua was held in tho Court House
Square on the evening of the 19th inst., which
was largely attended. That paper says :
Near oue thousand persons were present,
and all seemed animated with the same l'eeliug
—that of deep aud heartfelt sympathy for the
struggling Republic of Nicaragua, and for
Walker ud his men.
After several stirring speeches had been de
livered, the following resolutions were adopted
by acclamation:
Resolved, That tho present war between
Costa Rica and Nicaragua is one to be settled
by themselves as nations.
Resolved, Tlrnt we know of no law that will
prevent our citizeus. as individuals, from giv
ing aid to men struggling for a free govern
ment.
Resolved, That when a European powersliall
interfere in this contest —but not till then—
we will insist that our Government at once
evoke all its resources of men nnd money to
uphold the ** Mouroe doctrine,” of repelling
-ueb interference, with man to man and gun to

A Consul for Nicaragua.
Charles 8. Willet, late assistant editor of
ie New York Mirror, has been appointed
1 ii-wl for Nicaragua, at that port., nder the
ilker-Rivas government. The office is said
. “be worth $2,000 per annum.
Fraud upon tho Government.
Suspicion of fraud, says the Savannah
News, having been excited in the Pension
office at Washington by the great number of
new claims for bounty land mid pensions for
revolutionary service, sent from Columbia
county, in this State, as well as by the incon
sistency of the affidavits of the claimants, the
head of that department despatched Mr. Ste
phen G. Dodge special ugent to Georgia to in
vestigate the claims, which, owing to the re
spactablc character of some of the witnesses,
had been passed with considerable energy by
our delegation in Congress. Mr. Dodge came
to Savannah, and through U. S. Marshal Dan
iel H. Stewart, communicated with Deputy U.
S. Marshal Thomas L. Ross, of Macon, who
met the agent in Augusta, and proceeded to
investigate the claims. Evidence of the most
unmitigated fraud was obtained, and Mr.
Dodge, leaving Mr. Ross still prosecuting his
inquiries, catne to this city, where he obtained
warrants for the arrest of Dr. Henry A. Ram
say and Richard W. Jones, of Columbia coun
ty, on the charge of having fabricated testimo
ny in support of false pension claims. Pro
ceeding to Augusta, the warrants were placed
in the hands of Deputy Marshal Ross, wlio,
assisted by Marshal Christian of Augusta,
made the arrests on Sunday last. Rumsay
and Jones, with some twenty witnesses, were
brought to this city, and the examination was
commenced before United States Commission
er Charles S. Henry on Wedntsday. Judge
Henry required the prisoners to enter into
bonds for their attendance during the examin
ation, of $6,000, which bond was given by
Ramsay, but in defuult of which Jones was
lodged in jail. The examination of witnesses
disclosed tlie grossest fraud and deception
which had been practised upon persons whose
affidavits had been obtained in support of
false claims, and on Wednesday night Dr. Ram
say, who seems to have been the plotter and
principal executor of the scheme to defraud
the government, absconded during the night,
forfeiting liis bail, and has not since been heard
of.
We understand that false papers had been
made out in some twenty cases, all in Colum
bia county, and that in the procurement of
the necessary affidavits, the grossest imposi
tion was practised upon honest and unsuspect
ing persons.
Much credit is due to Mr. Dodge, the Gov
eminent agent, for the energy and prudence
with which he has conducted the investigation
by which tho fraud was brought to light; and
to Marahals Ross and Stewart for their prompt
ness and industry in bringing the offenders
and the witnesses before the Commissioner.
Vigilant efforts are being made for the re
arrest of Ramsay. Jones is still in Savannah
jail.
Difficulties in Paraguay.
The Journal de Commercio, of Rio Janeiro,
snys the New Orleans Picayune, gives an ac
count of an extraordinary difficulty between
the Government of Paraguay and the French
colonists of Nova Bordeos, copied from the
Mercantil of Alegre, of the 26th of March.—
The colonists, it appears, had had land donat
ed to them on their arrival, and at once set
energetically about cultivating them. Long
and heavy rains, however, followed by a pro
longed drought destroyed their plantations,
and they found themselves reduced to the pit
tance which the Government of Paraguay had
promised to allow them for a year.
This little means of support, too, was soon
so seriously diminished, aud they were treated
with such unmerciful rigor, being deprived
even of shelter, that, filled with despair, they
commenced to flee to the interior of Chaco,
preferring to live among the Indian hordes
rather than be subjected to the despotism ot
the Paraguayan authorities. Excited by this
course, the Government, it appears, perpetra
ted unheard of excessos. The justice of the
peace of the colony was ordered to ascertain
how and whither the colonists fled ; and the
purpose of compelling those still remaining in
the colony to disclose the retreat of their com
panions, lie inflicted on them barbarous vio
lence.
This proceeding, of course, made the colony
revolt still more determinedly, and the people
declared that they wished to return to their
own country. President Lopez hearing of this
resolution, intimated to the colonists, by a de
cree of the 29th of December last, that from
that day forward all Government aid would be
withdrawn from the colonists; that at tiie end
of a week from that time the colony would be
broken up ; and that by fifty days afterwards
they would be required to repay to the State
all the expenses incurred on their account since
they lmd left France. Under these circum
stances, the French Consul in Paraguay ad
dressed a note to President Lopez, asking for
explanations.
To this notehis Excellency gave a very rough
reply. The consequence was that 339 foreign
ers found themselves night nnd day without
shelter and without means of subsistence, as
no proproitor would venture to give to them
for fear of exciting the anger of tho govern
ment. In this state of misery the report leaves
the poor victims of one of the South American
colonization schemes.
While the government could exert its cow
ardly severity in this infamous manner, it was
powerless against bands of robbers and assas
sins who infested various parts of the country,
iu some cases killing even soldiers sent to aid
in serving process.
“♦
Brunswick and Macon Rail Road,
It is not generally known that at the last
session of the Legislature a charter was grant
ed for a Rail Road from Macon to Brunswick,
or to some point on the Brunswickaud Florida
Road. Its charter jrivilegesare unexception
able, being the charter of the Brunswick and
Florida Railroad Company, except to location.
The incipient steps for the survey ba.e al
ready been taken. This is an enterprise of
great practical importance to Brunswick, and
we shall watch its progress with much interest.
We can assure the friends of this city that the
enterprise is in the hands of men who are not
in the habit of looking back when they have
once put their hands to the plow*, and we may
therefore look for a display of energy that will
soon give us a direct communication with cen
tral and upper Georgia. Will the Republican
give us a demonstration of how this enterprise
is to “inure to the immediate and great ad
vantage of Savannah ?”

Congressional.
Washington, May 29. — The Senate parsed
jill the House Land Bills.
A message was received in both Houses from
the President, announcing the dismissal of
Crampton, and enclosing Mr. Morey’s reply to
Clarendon’s last note.
Mr. Marcy states that the conciliatory spir
it shown by Groat Britain, and the regrets ex
pressed for the infringement of our laws, are
satisfactory ns regards the the British Gov
ernment, but as the President cannot concur
in tlie opinion that Crampton nnd the Consuls
are innocent, tbey have been dismissed. He
expresses a desire that the diplomatic relations
of the Governments shall not be interrupted.
In the House, the Committee upon Territo

During the meeting, despatches giving the
account of the destruction of Lawrence were
read, which created intense excitement.
Over Refinements of Language.
The following admirable hitisfrom the New
Orleans Picayune. It touches a point upon
which all readers of modern literature must
have spent some admiration :
Among all the improvements of the age,
none, perhaps, are more striking than those
which have recently been made, and indeed are
at present making, in the language of ordina
ry life. Who, in these days, ever reads of
boarding schools ? Nobody. They are trails
formed into academies for boys aud seminaries
for girls; the higher classes are “establish
ments.” A coachmaker’s shop is a “reposi
tory for carriages” : a milliner’s shop, a “ de
pot;” a threadseller’s an “emporium.” One
buys drugs at a “ medical hall;” wines of a
“company and shoes at a “mart.” Black
ing is dispensed from an “ institution and
meat from a “purveyor.” One would imagine
that the word shop had become not only con
temptible but had been discovered not to be
long to the English language. Nowadays, all
the shops are “ workhouses,” or “ places of
business;” aud you will hardly find a trades
man having the honest hardihood to call him
self a shopkeeper. There isnow, also no such
word as that of tailor, that is to say, among
speakers polite. “Clothier,” has been discov
ered, to be more elegant, although the term
tailor is every bit as respectable.
Instead of reading that, after a ball the com
pany did not go away tilUdayiight, weare told
that thejoyous groups continued tripping oil
the light fantastic toe until Sol gave him warn
ing to depart. If one of the company happen
ed to tumble in a ditch, we should be inform
ed that “his foot slipped and he was immersed
in the liquid element.” A good supper is de
scribed as making the “tables groan with eve
ry possible delicacy of the season.” A crowd
of briefless, lazy lawyers, unbeneficed clergy
men. and half-pay officers, arc enumerated a
“host of fashion” at a watering place, where
we are informed that ladies, instead of taking
a dip before breakfast, “plunge themselves
fearlessly into the bosom of Neptune.” A
sheep killed by lightening is a thing unheard
of—the animal may be destroyed by the elec
tric fluid, but even then, we should not be told
it was dead; we should be informed that “the
vital spark had fled forever.”
All little girls, be their faces ever so plain,
pijted or pitiable, if they appear at a public
office to complain of robjoery or ill-treatment,
are invariably “intelligent and interesting.”
If they have proceeded very far in crime, they
are called “unfortunate females.” Child
murder is elegantly termed “infanticide,” and
when it is punished capitally, we hear, not
that the unnatural mother was handled, but
that “the unfortunate culprit underwent the
last sentence of the law, and was launched into
eternity.” No person reads in the newspapers
that a house had been burned down ; lie per
haps will find “that the house fell a sacrifice
to the flames.” In an account of the launch
not that the ship went off the slips without any
accident, but that “ she glided securely and
majestically into her native element;” thesaid
“native element” being one in which the said
ship never was before. To send for asurgeon.
if one’s leg is broken, is out of the question ;
a man indeed may be “despatched for medi
cal aid.” There are now no public singers at
tavern dinners, they are the “ professional
gentlemen; and actors are all “ professors of
the histronic art.” Widows are scarce, they
are all “interesting relics;” and as for nur
sery maids, they arc now-a-duys universally
transformed into “young persons who super
intend the junior branches of his family.”

The variegated umrblc from above Loudon,
Tenri., that our citizens have been accustomed
for a year or two back toseepass over the State
and Georgia Railroads is beginning to make
its appearance again ou its way to Washing
ton City. Tkis-inarblh is pronounced to he, of
its variety, unequalled iu the whole world for
beauty and lustrous finish. Its native bed is
on a creek above London, t which point it is
brought down in flat boats, and from thence
by railroads and the Potomac river carried to
its destination. For months back the supplies
of this material have been stopped by low-wa
ter. but the recent floods in tlie up-country have
made the transportation again practicable and
easy. Wo have beam told that these huge
blocks that we see on our cai’3 are delivered
at the contract price of eleven dollars per cu
bic foot in Washington. They arc considered
too precious even for this rich government to
use in tho block, and consequently they must
be sawed into thin veneers for facing those
parts of the capitol extension that require
sumptuous and elaborate adorning. About
1200 tons, it is thought, of these veneers will
be necessary lor tlie ornamental work iu the
two new wings. Some idea of the beauty of
this newly discovered mineral may be inferred
from the fact, that only the mantelpieces that,
by way of experiment on the market, was ever
made of this marble, brought in Philadelphia
$1260. It would be no vain boast if a fellow
could say, “ he was in town with a pocket full
of ‘such rocks’ ” as these.— Atlanta Intelligen

Vindication of the late Lord Raglan.
The London Morning Chronicle thinks that
the peace will clear up many misrepresenta
tions about the war. It says :
“It is now ascertained that at the battle of
the Alma, not 6,000 troops were left at Sevas
topol. The Russian Plenipotentiaries have
this at the Conference, Lady Raglan has a
letter in her possession, proving that Lord
Raglan sent to St. Arnand, when the battle was
gained, to say that lie was pushing on to cuter
Sebastopol, and that the French commander
in-chief refused to support him, and required
him to move ou to Balakhvva. Had Lord Rag
lan been commander of both armies, we should
have been in Sevastopol at the very opening of
the campaign.
“We are further in a condition to state that,
four times over, Lord Raglan ordered the bom
bardment of Odessa, when he found the enemy
drawing strength from it. The order was tel
egraphed to Paris, and four times Napoleon
prohibited it. We can oniy state that, at the
battle of Tcheruaya, the English General sent
to the French Commander to say that he would
seize the bridge over the river, and intercept
the resreut of 25.000 Russians, who the Rus
sian Plenipotentiaries now say were complete
ly disorganized. The French Commander
again refused the offer, and allowed the Rus
sians to escape.”
A Word to the “ Hard Up.”
For goodness sake, don’t look so melancholy!
Better times are in store for you, see if there
ain’t. Why, man, one would suppose you were
condemned to the pillory, torture or something
like the “ pit and the pendulum.’, Come,
now, be cheerful; if you can’t pay your debts
immediately, do the best you can and pay
them as you are able. “ Care killed cat” —if
you haven't fifty cents to luxuriate on julep
and strawberries with, appropriate half the
amount for something less delicate and more
wholesome. Kiss your wife, if you have one ;
if you haven’t, then kiss somebody else’s, or
get married immediately—for acts of despera
tion frequently result happily and beneficially
in their effects. If you have got any children,
roam with them ; if you haven’t, roam with
your neighbors’. Look upon the bright side
of everything—put on a cheerful countenance,
keep your mind in the right trim, and, if you
find that your native town won’t support you
for the services you may render, why, pack
off to Kansas—there’s plenty of room out there
for you. At all events, be cheerful.

reach tho ground. At the end it is armed with
a small sharp substance, with which it pierces
insects and lifts them into the calyx, where
they arc grasped by the plant and appropri
