COL U M B US: 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. .lames 11. Murks aud brother, of the Bayou Sara Ledger, wore tried recently at Sr. Fran oisville, La., for the killing of Mr. Robertson, of the Chronicle, and acquitted. The residence of Dr. Samuel D. Holt, a mile from the city of Montgomery, was set on fire last Monday night, and was with grent diffi culty saved. , ■*— We understand that the recentsession of the Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church ut Tuskegee, decided against the establish ment, for the present, of a denominational pa per in the city of Montgomery. Col. Thomas F. Hunt, late Quarter Master General of the United States Army, died in Now Orleaus on the 22d instant. Col. 11. was a native of Salisbury, North Carolina. The dwelling of Mr. Floyd in Atlanta, whs consumed by fire on Christmas day. The fam ily were all absent at the time and nothing was 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 of the Supreme Court of Texas at the time of 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 ing of tile only gap that has broken the com munication from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mis sissippi, at Vicksburg. - 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 gencer also learns have advanced as far as the Savannah River with the most satisfactory re sult. ♦- 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. Hahi-kr for January, is at hand, fully 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 emissaries who arc doing their utmost to stir up a rebellion among the blacks of the South. TU y should be looked after with great vigi lance, and when caught, made to.pull hemp. and Florida Railroad. 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. Communicated. Wagoners would find a profitable bnsinessin running from this place to Savannah in com petition wilh the Rail Road. I have just settled for the freight of a no top light buggy $12.10 aud two parlor .chairs SB. At the old price of wagoning 75 cts. per hundred pounds for one hundred miles would ho cheaper than this rate of freight. How long are we to submit to this onerous tHX 7 COLUMBUS. We would suggest to “ Columbus” that it is not usual to haul chairs by the hundred pounds. Fretty good freighting, however, at $ 1 for a chair from Savannah to Columbus.

The last uumbor has a cut rep resenting au enormous Shanghai hen, with u very loug pair of legs, a short tail, very high up, aud stupendously long ueck, surmounted by a face of Fillmore, looking down with fond solicitude upon a Ringle little chicken labelled Maryland. 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. Ret ii aiuer the printer at the end of the year. Sett. p with him TELEGRAPHIC. Nine Days Later from Europe. ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA, Halifax, (N. S.) Dec. 23. The Royal Mail Steamship Canada, Capt. Lang, has arrived at this port, bringing Liver i pool dates to the 12th iust. The steamship America sailed on the Gth, but encountered a furious storm off Cape Clear and put buck on the 10th. The Canada took her place and sailed on the j 12th. The Canada brought the America’s mails ! and passengers. The America was badly dam | aged. She lost her bulwarks and boats, and j had her forward saloon completely gutted.— : Onemarionly was injured. She put back to Liverpool on the morning of the 11th. General Intelligence. Tho Captain and fifteen others, passengers and crew of the lost steamship Lyonnais, were rescued by a vessel and carried to Bordeaux. ! The boat in which they were found was the j Captain’s. Among the rescued were Mrs. I Strong and Mr. and Mrs. Bailly, of Connecti cut. The names of the others are unknown. Severe gales have been ragingin the British I Channel. The ships Adriatic, from New York < and J. L. Rainer, from New Orleans, were lost. ’ The ship Latin Rookh, for Charleston, return ed with loss of sails. Numerous disasters among the shipping have occurred in the Mediterranean. The Paris Conference will meet some time during this month The Plenipotentiaries will be the same as at the last meeting. Prussia has invited a Conference of the great powers with regard to Neafchatel. France and Austria have advised her to abstain from military demonstrations during the pending of the question, promising to support her views. The King of Prussia has presented the reso lution of the German Diet on tho Neufcbatel question to the great powers, inviting them to join in a collective decision with a view to se cure her recognized rights. The ship New York from Liverpool for New York, was wrecked on the Bth of Dec., near Dungannon. She had a full cargo and two hundred passengers. Three men only were drowned. A deputation from the citizens of Liverpool and London had waited upon Lord Clarendon to ascertain what is meant by the British de monstration against New Granada. Father Mathew died at Cork on the 9th inst. The Loudon Times in an editorial, backs out from the Arrowsniith Georgia Railroad hoax. Monssud Bey, cn the part of the Pacha of Egypt, has had an interview with theManches tev Commercial Association touching the culti vation of cotton on the river Tigris. Commercial Intelligence- 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 leans 0 15-1 Gd ; Fair Uplands at 7d., and Mid dling Uplands at G;{- to 6£d. Thesales for the week ending thejGth inst. were G 9,000 bales, 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 to Jd. on the lower qualities. 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. —Savannah flrorytan. Supremo Court of Alabama.
