Those who wish to purchase copies are requested to call at the office of publication. Tatum’s Sacred Paintings. We wore present last uight at the Exhibition of theso magnificent works of art. We con sider them fully up if not beyond the merit uc corded to them by the press. The venerable Divine, Dr. Lovick fierce, was present, and at the dose of the exhibition he paid an appropriate compliment to the Paintings, which would induce every person who has a love of the sacred, sublime and beau tiful to appreciate the labors of the Artist.— They will be exhibited again to-night. “A Lover of Good Order.” We cheerfully give place in our columns, to day, to a communication with the above signa ture, which seems to have been called forth by a paragraph in the Sun of Tuesday morning. What the editor of the Hun thought of the t'ity Criminal Court last August, and what lie uow thinks, makes very little difference. lie never has thought that a Court of its jurisdic tion in the t'ity of Columbus would be a ter ror to evil does equivalent to the inconvenience the citizen is put In performing Jury duty. If a reform has'taken place in consequence of its existence, we have been unable to see it. However, we will not discuss the merits of the institution at present. Its burthens and in conveniences have to bo borne, at leaKt, till the sitting of another legislature. At the proper time we will take up tlio sub ject, when wo fatter ourself, we .shall be able to show thut without higher jurisdiction, its benefits cannot be equivalent to its costs and inconvenience to the orderly citizen. In our notice, we intended no disrespect to tlie offioors of the court; for all of whom we entertain tlie highest, regard, as officers tit to iill the same stations in a higher court. The intimation of the “lover of good order” why tlio writer of tire paragraph deems tiie court unnecessary, is no reason for the sup pression of an honest opinion, lie was, it is t rue, under heavy bond for assault and battery, and settled the case to tho recorded satisfac tion of tbo couvt and plaintiff. Now what is t he intimation worth ? Ifow Is It. Is it just—is it equity, that Grand and Petit Jurors, (many of whom, if not all, earn their daily bread by their daily labor.) are compell ed to serve in the City Criminal Court without one cunt of compensation ? In other courts, jurors are allowed the pitiful sum of one dol lar per diem. In the City Criminal Court, the Judge has his salary, and the .Solicitor and the Sheriff, etc., have their fees, but the jurymen, no matter how pressing their pecu niary circumstances may be, have to lose their time and support themselves. And this too of a court which is said to support itself. Verily, this reminds us of the fellow who wits anxious to work his passage on tho canal, and so to do, took it a foot and lead tho horse along the tow path to his point of destination !

Mr. Jte Wolf — Dear Sir: I see from an article headed the “Criminal Court,” in your valuable pa per of yesterday , that your Editor thinks that body entirely unnecessary, and is disposed to cast ridicule upon it. It will he remembered that only a few months ago, during the sitting of the Superior and Criminal Courts at the same time, your paper was exceedingly com plimentary to the officers of the latter, and was so well pleased with the Court, that the Editor “could see no difference between the two, ex cept the saw dust, which divided the two rooms.*’ A great change has oonie over the spirit of the Editors’ dreams oflate. Why does he think a Court, which pays for itself, and has been established to work a re formation in the morals of this community, and to bring offenders of tho law, and distur bers of good order—no matter how small their offence—to justice, and to answer for their crimes! An unnecessari/ Body? Ifas it not worked well so far? Has not every infraction of the law, over which it had jurisdiction in this city, been brought to its notice ? lias not this certainty of punishment, rather than its severity, deterred offenders'.’ Taking away thereby all hope Os escape, which so emboldens them '! Perhaps the Editor’ in the Court Room at so early an hour, will give his readers a reason why lie thinks the Court unnecessary. A Lovkh ok Good Oilmen. From the Savannah Republican. How the London Times was Hoaxed! Macon, Nov. 21, 1850. Editor’ d}’ the Sao. RcjntbHoun. Sir—i notice iu your issue of yesterday some editorial remarks aud a copy of Mr. Cuyler’s letter to the London Times, relative to the far famed railway duel hoax, lately published in that paper. You say that timo will doubtless disclose the secret. J give you the following, as I believe, the true solution of tho whole mystery: 1, as well as tho New Englander, and per haps many others, supposed it to be a genuine hoax, played off on Mr. Avrowsmith, as we are very well capable of getting off such things in Georgia, suspected one of the Mail Agents be tween Augusta aud Columbus, of having a hand in it, and mooting him shortly after the appearance of tho story in the .American pa pers, accused him of my suspicions, when he stated to me that he had amused an idle hour, in fabricating the story, and getting into con versation with an Englishman who was pass ing over the route, on tlio subject of southern atrocities, read him his effort. The traveler requested the copy of the story, which he gave him, without suspicion of the use tlias would be made of it, and you may im agine his astonishment, as well as amusement, when it made its appearance in the Times, as a true and genuine scene, as witnessed by the acute Mr. Arrowsmith, on his passage from. Macon to Augusta oil the 28th of August last. Should you deem the matter of sufficient im portance, T think the above statement can he verified by affidavit. My interview with the Mail Agent was brief, and 1 have not seen him since to learn any additional particulars.— Should you desire it, I will do so, and furnish you with such further particulars as he may disclose. Yours truly, Jo. Georgia-Made Catawba Wino. The Augusta Constitutionalist of the 23d iust., says: “On Friday last Mr. Axt, of Crawibrdvilk, already favorably known in Georgia as a wine producer, exhibited at tho store of Thomas P. .Stovall & Cos., some specimens of wine made by him from the Catawba grape, grown in Georgia during the years 1855 and 1856. There were two samples of the vintage of 1800, and one of that of 1855—a1l known as Dry Catawba. Several cotyioiseurs were present and smacked their lips over these wines, be sides several others, who, though unassuming upon this abstruse subject, know a good arti cle when they close down on it; Mr. Axt’s wines bore the test triumphantly. Those of 1850 wore limpid and pure, having scarcely tho suspicion of sediment about them. The flavor was pronounced excellent—of good body and fruity taste. The wine of 1855 was uni versally considered the best, having improved by time. This demonstated that native wine, of the Catawba grape, will keep with us, when properly made. A bottle of Loiigworth’s Dry Catawba, of the vintage of 1852, was opened at the same time, and proved to be of excel lent. quality. This further demonstrated the same fact. Mr. Axt has achieved for himself and for the South a great result, in tho successful in troduction of this important branch of indus try into this State. His wine we would place in the very front rank of American wines of the same class, equal to the best Dry Catawba from Longworth’s or Work’s cellars. Message of the Governor of Arkansas. The Legislature of Arkansas met ou the 4th iust., and received the annual message of Gov. Conway. It is devoted entirely to State af fairs. The State finances are in good condi tion. A balance of $424,125, in gold aud sil ver, remains in the treasury. The Governor reports the State as rapidly growing in popu lation and wealth. In 1852 the assessment of taxable property amounted to $42,000,080; that of 1850 is $70,758,045 —showing an in crease iu four years of $27,859,901, or nearly seventy per cent., and he anticipates that, with prtidence, skill and economy, the State will be able, by tho time tho bonds given by her lull duo, to pay them in full, without oppressive taxation. Immense Growth. The population of Cincinnati within the corporate limits, is stated to be 470,000. Tho exports from that city for the year 1856-’0 amounted to $50,744,78(1: in 1851-’2 to oniy $08,284,890. This gives an idea of the great increase of business within four years. Tho imports into city the last year amounted to $75,896,901. Gold to Kansas. It is stated by tlio St. Louis Intelligencer, that $1,000,000 have been sent to Kansu from brokers in that city, for the purchase of Kan sas lands. ♦ Might and Main.

Serenado to Judge Douglas and Lady. I’iiiL auklfiua, Nov. 21.—Last uight a splendid musical party serenaded Judge Doug las, and his beautiful hrido, at the Girard House. The Governor’s Message. We spread before our readers in full the Message sent into both Houses by His Excel lency Gov. Bragg. We commend it to their attention and attempt no synopsis beyond a mere referenofe to some figures. The debt of North Carolina is set down at $5,038,892 55. and by virtue of acts passed by the last Legislature, bonds to the further amount of $1,180,000 are yet to be sold and the proceeds to be applied to certain specific purposes. There will also be provision re quired to be made to meet the State’s subscrip tion to the Western Extension of the Central Hoad—the State endorsement to tho bonds of the Charlotte Road, when called for, &c., &e. Tho revenue for the p*kstyear, from all sources amount to $891,901 97, to which is to be ad ! ded something additional fur deficits by Sher iffs, since paid, &c., making the whole amount $495,116 81. The ordinary expenses of the State government for the next two years are put at $170,000, or an average of $85,000 per annum. The amount of interest ou the pres ent bonded debt of the State $302,328’ 15, and additional interest upion bonds to ho issued this year, $70,000 together with $25,000 prin- I cipul for the Yadkin and New River Naviga | tion Companies making $308,164 15, which : with the $75,000 ordinary expenses will make the sum of $474,164 15, being considerably J more than the revenue provided.— Wilmington j N. C. Journal. A Singular Flower. Dr. Peck an English traveler, recently ex i liibitod to a learned society in England a sing ular specimen of a flower which lie obtained in Egypt from a mummy, and for which no place in botany has yet been assigned. The Doctor had it nine years, and bus exhibited it a, thousand times by dipping it into water a few minutes, when it gradually expands or blossoms. It is, when open, about one inch iu diameter. Its age is unknown. It was pre sented to the Doctor for iiis medical services in Egypt by au Arab, who asserted that he took it from the breast of a mummy, a female high-priest, and that it was considered a cu riosity. It has the uppearnnee, in its dry state, of a small poppy head ; hut when expand ed by soaking in water,pt resembles a beauti fully radiated starry flower like the ohrysan theum. From Bio Janeiro. Recent advices from Rio, by the Alice at Philadelphia, state that—“ The stock of coffee is increasing, owing to the fineness of the weather, which enabled planters to send in large supplies, The orders from France, Belgium aud England are large, and but few vessels are loading for the United States. You will not bo a little surprised when I tell you thatemigra ion is rapidly increasing here; the government is well aware of its great advantages, and has succeeded in attracting the attention of Europe an settlers. The French and Portuguese are increasing rapidly, and the English, Irish and Scotch arc coming in thousands and settling on the finest lands in tiie world. Brazil will as sume a proud position among the nations very soon. Hon. Chandler E. Potter, of New Ilamp shiro, was married on the 11th, to a Miss Mc- Neil, of Hillsboro, daughter of the late Gen. J. McNeil, and niece of President Pierce. A little thin old man, with a rag bag in his hand, picking up a large number of small pieces of whalebone which lay in the street, was asked how he supposed they came there. ‘Don’t know,’ he replied in a squeaking voice, ‘but I, spect some unfortunate female was wrecked hereabout somewhere.’ Steamboat Accident. On Tuesday night, about 11 o’clock, the Fairfield, Capt. IV. W. Buckley, with 672 bales of cotton, and a large number of passengers from Demopolis, struck a .snag when within two or three miles of Mobile, and punched a hole in her starboard bow, about two feet by three; but the captain promptly run the boat ashore, and proceeding to town in the yawl got up steam on tho Selma and quickly went to the relief of the Fairfield, and sent down the pas sengers and cargo in safety. That portion of the cotton which had been thrown overboard at the moment of the accident, had meanwhile beea secured by the crew, and was brought down by the Heroine, Capt. Buckley with great energy succeeded also in bringing his damaged boat to the city, where she was at once put under repair. Great praise is awarded by all to Capt. Buck ley for his prompt assiduity ; and to the lib eral rule of Cox, Bratnard A Cos., which allows any commander connected with their line to press into service whichever of theirmany boats may be at hand when an accident has occur red.—Mobile Register. Heavy Loss of Diamonds. A gentleman named do Souza, who arrived off Havre two days ago, by the Franc Cointois, in his hurry to land, would not wait an hour for the turn of the sea tide, which would ena ble the vessel to enter the dock, but landed by a pilot boat. In getting from the vessel into the boat lie let slip overboard a small box con taining diamonds, which he hoped would pro duce him a sum of €290,000. A bony was immediately placed to mark the spot, and an experienced diver was engaged to seek to re cover the lost treasure, in case of success he is to receive 1.000f., and lOOf. if unsuc cessful. He has already made one attempt without result, and willtnake anuther shortly, Jewish Ceremonies.

This celebrated case, involving the title to the land upon which stands the eastern abut ment of the bridge across the Chattahoochee at this place, was tried again at that late term of the Superior for Randolph county, Georgia, and resulted in a verdict against the Bridge Company of $12,000.

The following is extracted from the circular of the Messers. G. A. Thompson & Cos., dated London, Oot. 21: “EVery in both the develop ment of American Railways becomes more striking, and the returns which the leading lines fairly earn and pay upon their stocks are so great that they can hardly fail to attract more general attention from English investors before’ ioug. English railway investments may be said to yield at present prices a max imum return of 5 per cent., whereas, it is a very moderate statement to say that the prin cipal American railway stock yield a maximum return of 10 per cent. The management of American railways, judged from the careful and minute reports issued by the boards of di - rection, and tiie large amount of business con ducted on the lines is admitted by all who have examined tin; subject to be mosts.- tifac tory, and deserving of confidence. American securities are now largely held in England, as well as in France and Germany, and those who have gone into them with duo care have in re cent years derived returns on their invest ments not attainable in this country, and with those parties the disposition to make further purchases is quite general. With others who have merely general impressions regarding America and Americans, derivered from news paper reading, undue prejudices prevail. These prejudices are not’surprising, when the leading journals of this country loses no op portunity of publishing reports calculated to increase them; but time will show that re ports recently published, prejudicial to the American character, have not been sufficiently authenticated. To those who arc conversant will American business, it is well known that the merchants and bankers of New York and other principal cities of the Union merit the highest respect for the spirit of integrity by which they are guided in business, combined with the most enlightened enterprise. Well selected investments may be made in Ameri ca with as much confidence, us to security, as in any country in the world, and they yield greater returns than Can be obtained else where.” Gallant Boys. A few days ago two sons of Mr. .T. S. Whil hoite, of Monterey, in Owen county, Kentucky, one ten years old and the other eight, rode their father’s horse to the Kentucky river to water. Tlio horse plunged in and attempted to swim across the river with both the boys upon his hack, when near the middle of the stream they tried to turn tlio horse back towards the other shore. This made him capsize, and both the hoys slipped off into the water, and the horse left them. As they slipped off the elder said to the younger.” “Hold on to me, and I’ll swim out with you.” lie did hold on, and tho other actually swam ashore with him upon his back, dragging at the same time a tin bucket which the younger had upon his arm. Vermont and Kansas. Tiie telegraph advises us that Vermont has come up to the sci’atoh at last, and voted $20,- 000 to aid the Free Soil cause in Kansas. We are glad of this. It set'les the question as to whether any of the Northern States are rea dy to go in an organized capacity into the con test, and it is a point we want to have decided. We can meet them if we have to meet them, but the difficulty lias been in determining that a contest is inevitable. But if the States of the North go as States, to determine the social con dition of Kansas, then the Southern States, as States, must have a word or two to say upon the subject. We have not favored such a course. We have preferred leaving Kansas to her fate, and have thought it wise, of our own accord, to give an unnatural extention to slav ery. But if the North, defeated in her effort to grasji the government of the country, will indemnify herself by grasping the territory of the country, we must meet this as we must any other form of aggression, and drive her back. The amount of effort the State of Vermont pro poses to expend upon this work of outrage is not great, and it would have been more credi table if in exhibiting the purpose, she had ex hibited also the daring of a brigand. But the character of the action does not depend upon the extent of it, and avo present the matter as one which demands attention from the South ern States.— Charleston Standard. Preserve Your Hair. To those Avho are not aware that each parti cular hair on the head is a hollow tube, through which the fluids circulate Avhich con vey nourishment, and impart its peculiar shade of color, it seems incomprehensible how resto ratives can produce a renovating influence. While preparations of this nature were entrus ted to quacks, and ignorant manufacturers of perfumes and cosmetics, much and irreparable mischief was inflicted on many a credulous and deluded sufferer.
