Monday Morning, Dec. SIS, IHSB.
LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION.
Gone.
Gbrislmas has gone; its pleasures have been,
enjoyed, its festivities shared, and its headaches
endured. Every body seemed to be happy,
every ono to be friendly, and, with a few slight
exceptions, no one was disposed to be belliger
ent.
The sable population were ectatically pleased
and evidenced the fact of contentcdness that
would set aback the shrieks and groanings of
the abolitionists.
No accidents of any moment occurred. We
observed that our friends and patrons, I. G.
Strupper, Brassill & Cos., Colla, J. B. Thomas
& (Jo., and Stovall did an unusually large bu
siness ; and then our friends at the “Gem ’
and “Bella” were found fully up to the emer
gencies of the occasion. tJan they not pre
scribe for a case of founder. Advertising in
the Sun is the only way we can account lor the
rush at those places.

saved.
Judge A. 8. Lipscomb.
Judge Abner S. Lipscomhe, the first Chief
Justice of Alabama, hut for near 20 years a
citizen of Texas, died at Austin, in that State,
on the Bth instant. Ho was an acting Judge

his death. He was a native of South Carolina.
Homicide.
The Savannah Republican loams that a mur
der was committed in Sylvania, Scriven coun
ty, Ga., on Saturday the 20th instant, by Ho
mer J.-Minchey, formerly a resident of Flori
da, on the body of Homer Scott, a resident of
the first named place. Scott received eleven
wounds inflicted with a knife, and sur
vived hut a Hhort time. The coroner’s jury
returned a verdict of murder against Minchey,
who was subsequently arrested and lodged in
jail.
Death of Father Mathow.
Among the items by the Canada, wo notice
the announcement of the doath of Father Ma
thew, thevonerated and world-renowued Apos
tle of Temperance. Ho died at Cork uti the
9th instant, in the 65th year of his age. A
good man has gone.
The Vicksburg (Miss.) Timess states that
the Vicksburg and Jackson Rail Ho ad has
been purchased by & body of “ solid men ol
that place, who have also guaranteed the com
pletion of the Southern Rail Road to tlm Ala
bama line, securing, beyond a doubt, the clos

Burning of the Knoxville
The splendid steamship Knoxville, of the
Savanuah and New York line, was burned to
the waters edge at Now York on the 23d
inst. She was valued at $200,000, but is said
to have been insured at only SIOO,OOO. The
tiro is believod to havo originated from the
carelessness of the workmen who were engaged
iu repairing her.
The Air Line Rail Road.
The Atlanta Intelligencer states that the
charter for that portion of the Air Line Rail
Road intended to be located in South Oarolinn,
has passed both houses of the Legislature of
that State. The surveying party, the Itelli

AnvK.NTUKKS OF a Roving Dii-lomATisT—by
Henry Wikoff, author of “My Courtship ami
it* Consequences.”
A cepy of this work, containing 320 pages,
muslin bindiug, has been placed on our table
by J W. Tease. We have not found time to
examine its pages. The reputation of the au
thor, however, is sufficient to attract attention
to the Roving Diplomatist. It is to be found
at Pease’s Book Store.

sustaining its reputation. It is to he found at
Fease’a Book Store.
Short Cotton Crop.
A dispatch from Abbott, of New York, says
the Senators and Representatives in Congress,
from all the cotton districts, have written lot
tors in which they all agree in the opinion that
the cotton crop of this year ia one-fourth short
of the crop last year, und that tlm present
crop will not exceed 2,700.000 hales. They
give this estimate as the result of observations
and conversations had with the planters, while
canvassing the cotton growing districts during
, the late presidential eleotiou.
The Neutrality Laws.
A dispatch from Washington on the 22d
instant, says that Secretary Marcy has stated
iu a private conversation that tho neutrality
will bo rigidly enforced against the recruiting
agents of General Walker but that the recent
order for the arrest of Garrison, Morgan and
Walker was merely au official preliminary to
the commencement of a civil suit against those
parties.
The First Shad.
W e are informed that the first shad of the
season bus actually been taken, aud that that
important event occurred on Christmas Day,
near Fort Jackson. We are further advised
that the illustrious stranger was taken by Mar
tin & Sterling, two of onr most successful fish
ermen, by whom he was sold to Mr. P. Galla
gbee, the enterprising dealer in the fish line,
for the moderate sum of S3O, and by the latter
forwarded to Mr. T. M. llogan, of Columbus,
Georgia.
So, it will bo seen that the epicures of Ma
con have missed the first shad from Savannah
this season. It has gone to Columbus with
our good wishes. We hope thoy will have good
Times over it. We >re only sorry that it is
not large enough to afford a treat to all our
Columbus friends. It will, no doubt, be fash
ionable up there to complain of a bono in the
throat for a week or so to come.— Savannah
News.
His Shftdship arrived in our city’ on Satur
day, and was mugnificiently served at “Tiuc
Gkm” that evening. We assure our Savannah
friend, there were good Times over it, and
that the Sun was by no means obscured. We
heard no Enquirer after it.
We are pleased to see this prefer ence give
our enterprising friend, llogan, who proved
himself last season the Banner fish dealer of
the interior.
His arrangements for the incoming Shad
Season have baon fully completed, and the
lovers of this delicacy of the tinny tribe muy
look out for his announcement shortly.
Bank of Fast Tennessee.
The Bank of East Tennessee—the Northern
Bank at Knoxville, closed Us doors on Satur
day the 20th inst., never again, in tho opinion
of the Register, to be opened for the purpose
of Banking. The Register says the closing
has taken many persons iu Knoxville by sur
prise, inusmuch as it was generally understood
that the paper redeemable at that place, con
stituted comparatively a small part of tho
Bank’s circulation. The paper was selling in
Knoxville on the 23d, at 80cents on the dollar.
The Eutaw (Ala.) Whig learns from a-gen
tleinen just from Livingston, Sumter county,
in that. State, that an insurrectionary move
ment had been disccovered among the negroes
at that place, and that prompt steps had been
taken to suppress it-. Twenty-five negroes,
and among them, the leader of the movement,
were arrested on the 20th and committed to
Jail. The leaders of the movement acknow
ledge that white meu wore at the head of it,
and that the outbreak was to have taken place
on Christmas night.
The country seems to be full of abolition

The Brunswick Herald of the 24th instant,
says the cars are now running daily to the Sa
tilla River, thirty-two miles from Brunswick,
and that the Messrs. Collins have some seven
miles of their contract graded, and are pro
gressing rapidly with the remaining nine miles
which will take them to Big Breek. Drs.
Briggs and McDonnld and other contractors of
Lowndes and Ware are at work between Big
Creek and the Alapaha, and as soon as Christ
mas week is over, several other contractors
will put their hands on the liiicv- The iron is
purchased for the entire distance and will be
laid next summer, which will give us a Road
of ninety-eight miles penetrating the richest
cotton region of Southern Georgia. We arc
now in daily receipt of cotton by the Road.
As au indication of what it will do when ex
tended the ninety-eight miles, wo may state
that some of the cotton now received is hauled
a distance of 100 miles to tho head of the
Road.
A Challenge.
Tho Now York Tribune states that T. F.
Meagher lately challenged IF. J. Raymond, of
the New York Times, to fight a duel. The of
fence* was the publication of a paragraph say
ing that Meagher bad broken his parole when
he escaped from Australia. The story is that
Raymond negotiated with Meagher and finally
retracted and explained the offensive para
graph in a manner to satisfy the demands of
the duelist. The sending a challange is con
traty to law in New York, and the Tribune
lectures Meagher for sending it, and Raymond
for not placing it in the hands of the District
Attorney.

A State Tariff.
“ The letter of Mr. Toombs, says the Peters
burg, Democrat, has produced quite jv flutter
and racket among the Black Republicans.
Heretofore, they hate been accustomed to treat
the various plans proposed for securing Direct
Trade to the State with ridicule. And the
truth is hut for the honest purpose of their ad
vocates we would admit he most of them meri
ted little else—fill being more or less mere
messes of moonshine.
But here comes a practical scheme, this of
Mr. Toombs—full of good, hard sense and
valuable suggestion—amounting to a simple
proposition to jiie Southern States to levy an
ad valorem tax upon all goods, wares aud mer
chandise offered for sale within their limits,
other than those imported directly from for
eign countries. This tax should be high
enough (Ist) to prevent all indirect importa
tions of foreign goods, and (2d) high enough
to raise sufficient revenue for all the imposi
tion, upon the people, of any capitation or
other direct tax whatever.
Proceeding on the correct assumption that
federal legislation has been employed to steal
away the trade of the South and to destroy
her commercial independence, Mr. Toouibs
proposes that constitutional State legislation
shall now he invoked to get it back.
The Rlack Republican journals understand
this—it is pla'ii and sensible. The nostrils of
the Yankee always sensitively acute to any
probability of peril to his purse, sent in this
proposition an easy, practical, feasible and
constitutional method by which the long cov
eted boon of Trade and commercial
freedom may be secured and enjoyed by the
South. They have no words of ridicule to
waste on this plan—it unnerves them, and
they blanch while they contemplate it, at the
prospect of having to unbuckle and surrender
much of their ill-gotten gain.
“It is a bungling attempt at nullification”
shouts tlie “New York Herald.” Surely not
of the constitution, the courts have repeatedly
ruled that it was competent for the States to
regulate their license tax iu any manner that
might occur to them as wise and-proper. True
it nullifies Yankee commercial dominion over
the South, and this nullification will not be so
“bungling” either, if the Southern States will
only go to work and act iu the matter united-
Jy*
Another Black Republican philosopher af
fects to see in it numberless seeds of heart
burning aud jealously and discord sown among
the States. How patriotic ! How cunsideratel
Especially when the yelping hounds of oboli
tion led on by such as himself have hunted the
South down literally to bay, and have forced
her to calculate the value of her connection
with the Union.
Mr. Toombs’ letter is a red-shot tired in the
right direction. It has hit our abolition phi
losophers and political economists, between
wind and water. A congreve rocket thrown
into a pile of combustible matter could not
have stirred up a wilder commotion than lias
this simple prescription for curing the com
mercial sickness of the South occasioned among
the Black Republican herd at the North.
Let the recommendation he followed up by
prompt action in the premises. Let North
Uarolina give her Southern sisters a lead.
Why not ?
The following paragraph from the Washing
ton Star, is in much the same spirit:
Startled. —The letter of Senator Toombs,
addressed to the Southern Convention, has for
some days past been a theme of very general
conversation among the public men in this city.
Its recommendations are well received, indeed,
by those from the South, with very few excep
tions. So general favor for them do they
manifest as that those from sections of the
North whose business enterprise are likely to
be affected by the action of tho Southern
States governments proposed by Mr. T. if es
sayed to be carried out, arc much excited on
the subject; showing thus, we think, that Mr.
T. has hit the right nail on the head.
They argue vehemently against the feasibil
ity and constitutionality of the recommenda
tions of Mr. Toombs. With so much earnest
ness, indeed, as that their effort to carry with
them convictions contrary to their wishes.
Mobile Waking Up.
We find the following article on the subject
of the probable chaugo iu route of the Mobile
and Girard Rail Road, in the Mobile Tribune
of the 23d instant:
Mobile and Girard Railroad. —The last
number of the South Alabamian, published in
Greenville, Alabama, contains an article from
which we learn that a formidable effort is on
foot to divert the line of the road from its ori
ginal location, to Mobile via Greenville, to a
line running down the Conecuh river, having
Pensacola instead of Mobile, as its terminus.
This is a movement which demands the imme
diate attention of our citizens. That the road
will be built in a few years to either Mobile or
Pensacola is certain. The residents of West
ern Alabama and Eastern Georgia need a rail
road communication with the Gulf—they have
the wealth, enterprise and force to build it,
and they are bound to have it. Two terminal
points are presented—one is Mobile ; it is the
most conspicious, and has been looked upon
by the people along thermite as the most desir
able ; but the want of interest at the present
time on the part of the citizens, induces the
belief that they will afford no assistance: con
sequently rtlose stockholders, who are now in
terested in the immediate prosecution of the
work, have directed their attention to an easier
and less expensive route, which, it is said, can
he obtained by following the valley to Cone
cuh river to Pensacola.
To effect this, extra inducements are now
held out to tho company—in Pike county it is
expected that $200,000 will be raised beforo
the meeting of the stockholders take placo in
Girard, on the 20th inst. Efforts aro being
made iu other counties on the lino to raise mo
ney for the purpose of inducing the stockhold
ers to adopt this route.
Under tho circumstanses, the necessity of
prompt attention i* certainly apparent. On
an air line from Union Springs, the distance
to Pensacola is about 25 miles less than to Mo
bile, and the original route to this place is
over thirty miles further than the one now
proposed to Pensacola, which would probably
leave the Conecuh l iver about twelve miles this
side of Audalusia. Taking these facts into
consideration, we believe that, unless our citi
zentf bestire themselves in the matter without
delay, the terminus of the load will be Pensa
cola.
Rewarded.
There is one bit of news (says the Picayune)
which will he very gratifying to the very many
friends of Cnpt. Fayssoux. Our correspon
dent, in giving on account of the memorable
sea fight between the Nicaraguan schooner and
the Costa Rican brig, says :
“The victory was as complete as important,
and Capt. Fayssoux has been rewarded for his
gallantry by having the thanks of the Repub
lic, and hacienda of Rossario presented to
him.

Liverpool Cotton Market. —The cotton
market was petive and firm. The sales in five
days were—on Saturday, Monday and Tuesday
21,000 bales, of which speculators took 3,000;
and on Wednesday and Thursday', 20,000 bales.
Fair Orleans was quoted at 7-Jd: Middling Or

and for the five succeeding days 41,000, of
which speculators and exporters took 7000.
The market closed firm, at an advance of 1-16

A Just Compliment.
The Liverpool Times, with less pretensions
than its London namesake, understands Ame
rican politics and American character much
better. Commenting on our late Presidential
election, it thus pays us a compliment which no
other people yet merit:
“It is amazing how soon party spirit, car
ried to the verge of excess, subsides in the
United States when tho will of tlie sovereign
people becomes known. The minority bow
with instinctive respect to that numerical pre
ponderance which it is the genius of the Amer
ican Constitution to represent. However fierce
the struggle, however superhuman the efforts
which have been made to secure victory, the
belligerents, when the battle is over, lay down
their arms without forfeiting each other’s re
spect. It requires a long eourse of education
al training in practiced freedom to obtain this
control, but it is possessed by the Americans
to an extent unknown in any other country
where free institutions exist; and the solution
of the enigma must he looked for in the fact
that every man’feels himself an atom iu the
grsat total—the equal of the foremost in the
land; and the self respect so generated pays
to the State the homage of an ungrudging sub
mission. Men deserve to he free who can
make such sacrifices for individual opinion,
and yet yield with patriotic philosophy to the
events which they cannot control. The Union
stands in little danger of destruction while this
noble sentiment animates the breasts of Amer
ican citizens.”
Arrest of Supposed Abolitionists.
Third Sergeant Thomas Price, of the Mount
ed Police, arrested in this city last evening, in
the vicinity of Dray ton-street an individual
named Janies Marshall, who was delivering an
abolition speech. From his appearance, it was
supposed that many imbibitions of Southern
red-eye had fired up his Northern feelings and
he undertook the responsibility of giving, to a
few little niggers, his opinions of Southern in
stitutions. They were very much amused at
him, and when he was arrested ■ gave three
hearty cheers at his success in getting lodg
ings at tho* Police Barracks. Another gentle
man of the same stripe was also arrested in
the vicinity of the market, and was locked.
They will he quietlyfeut from the city to their
Northern homes, and should be thankful each
at having escaped a coat of tar und feathers.
