Savannah Races. The races over Tcnbroeck course at Savan nah, were to have commenced yesterday. The \,. w . -ay* excellent sport is expected and that ample preparations have been made for the iic.i ommodatioti of the public. Among the horses on the ground wo notice the names of Mary Hlueskin, Frank Allen, Hamuel Letcher, Caroline, Kate Hunter, Nich olas 1, Marksman, Olio, Alice Jones, Hetty Hawkins, Seabreeze, and others. - ♦ < mo hundred dollars have been appropriated by the City Council of Macon, to furnish the de erviug poor of tliut city with wood during the cold weather. ♦ Murder in Florida. Advices received at Charleston, by the steam er Carolina, from .Jacksonville, Florida, it ap p. ai's that a family named Shivc, consisting of father, wife and two children, had been found murdered at Indian Itivcr, Florida, and the house in which they resided had been burnt. ‘I lie deed, some supposed, was done by the In diniis, but suspicion also rests on other parties. The ,Savannah Republican learns that Fros. James Woodmw, of Oglethorpe l nivarsity, has resumed the duties of his chair—having been absent in I'.urope for the last eighteen mouths in attendance on the Lectures of emi nent Professors in the Natural Sciences.— Whilst abroad, he formed an extensive ac quaintance with flio leading Naturalists of the age, and their modes of instruction. He also procured for the College a valuable apparatus, during his absence. Whilst at the University at Heidelberg, af ter having been in the Laboratory of the tlis tinguished Professor Hnmsen for several months, the Degree of Philosophy, “suinina cam lavth ,” was conferred on him. Professor Woodrow, has declined the Chair tendered him L>y tho Trustees of Franklin College. — - Distressing Occurrence in Bryan- The Republican of Tuesday morning says a rumor was atloat in Savannah Monday uigiit to the etl'eet that a carriage containing three gentlemen, when crossing a bridge in Bryan county, on Friday last, broke through and the whole party were precipitated into the river and drowned. It is said that Win, 15. Gauld .-ii, Ksq., was one of the gentlemen; the names of the others were not given. As noth ing was heard of the occurrence by passengers <m tho Albany railroad, which runs through that county, it is thought there may be some mistake about it. Congressional. In the Senate oh the sth instant, Mr. Butler from the Judicary Committee, made a report declaring Mr. Harlan, of Ohio, not legally elected to the Senate. Mr. Toombs was to make a minority report. The House refused to suspend the rules to take up the Faciiic Railroad Hill. ♦ The following gentlemen were ou Monday la-t, elected ollicors of the Central Railroad and Hanking Company of Georgia, for the en suing year : 11. It. Cuvier, John W. Anderson, Andrew I.owe, Thomas Purse, Win. Crabtree, John R Wilder, John B. Gallic, W. It. Fleming, F. G, Dana. The last two are new directors. —— ♦- - - t he Kufnula Spirit of the South learns that a negro answering to the description of Mose who lately killed his master, Mr. Lindsay, in Henry county, Alabama, has been arrested and lodged in tho jail of Decatur, Georgia. Dr. Hoolo not Dead. AVe learn from the F.ufaula Spirit of the South that tho announcement last week of the death of Dr. K. S. Houle from the blows in ttirted upon his head by Avery Nolen, was premature. Notwithstanding an extensive and terrible fracture of the skull, there have been some favorable indications which have even in spire-1 hopes of a recovery. Cold Weather in Florida. tin the 2Jd of December the Thenaouter at Mieanopy, l’.ast Florida, stood 22 degrees, at sun rise, which is colder than lias ever been known in Hint region. Standing water froze to the depth of two inches, and ice uceumula ted fiiv several days. Tins Missouri Legislature organized perma nently on the .JOth. W. D. McUrneker, Dem ocrat, was chosen Secretary of the Senate, and Robert Harrison, ‘Democratic Whig, Speaker of the House. The Bentonites are said to have fused in opposition to the Democrts. s The Kail Road. We learn that there is every reason to hope Hint with ordinary industry between now and the first of February, the requisite railroad subscription will he made up. An earnest ef fort to obtain additional subscriptions will be inado during the next few days and with any thing like a liberal response, suecess is cortaiu. Let every roan who Ims not yet done his duty avail himself of this lust opportunity to aid in tin- good work. The directors of the Road wdl meet at Macon, Georgia, to-morrow and vh- shall soon know our destiny. It will also Re seen from the advertisement that a Rail Road convention will be held in this place ou I liar lay the l oth instant. l,ot every body who do-ires to see the interests of the county promoted, attend. Hufauta Syirit, Jan. 6. The Girard Railroad. Thu Troy American assures us that we n*.ay well “entertain strung hopes’ that the (Jifttrd Railroad extension in Dike county will be put through. And it truly soya that there has been no movement put on foot so well calculi. - ted to advance the interests of Colnmbus ,jus this. It lias no sort, of doubt tiiat if the rail road is extended Into or through Pike, “the ent ; rc trade of the county will be diverted from Montgomery to Golninbus and Savannah,” as “nothing but an Unyielding necessity now com pels its people to trudge through tho prairie mud to reach Montgomery.” Os the extent and value of the Pike county trade, it says : “This is a matter of more importaii- o than many may suppose who are not acquainted with the.character :uid resources of I’ikecotmty. Tho census returns of 1855, show a population of 20,012; 1 1,228 whites, and iT,3(lß'slaves. — Since then the increase has boon very great and is still rapidly going on. The lands in the county are very fine and of course productive and the trade of the county is huge slid profit able, and mu and continue to increase- Is it any wonder then, that the two cities, Montgomery and Columbus, should have their hopes and fears upon the subject, of the extension of the road?” The American cheers us with the u-suranco that its people arc fully alive to the importance of tlie work—that in every section of the coun ty liberal subscriptions will be made, and that those who tire not able to do much arcstill will ing to contribute their miles. This is the pro per spirit, and the spirit that is bound to suc ceed. The Hoard of Directors were to have met in this city yesterday, and this matter was one for their consideration. We trust that they arc resolved to go to the utmost limit of their ability and resources to advance theextension. Coin rnbjis Hit y ni-rcr, A Fast Train. Speaking of the arrangement of the Missis sippi Central Railroad, the Memphis Eagle of the 2dth nit. says : “The morning train from Holly Springs did not arrive at the junction on Monday until af ter the main train for Corinth had passed, and thereby passengers going either way were com pelled to lie over. This train crept along so slowly, that a passenger, who had his hat thrown oil', actually went back two miles after it, and then caught up with the cars.” . This must be the train which, a year or two since, rashly made a race with a calf running along the truck, and got distanced.—Montgom rg Mail. You are at fault brother Hooper. It is the one which overtook a lame darkey on foot and some passenger pitying his condition, asked him to ride. Cuffec rolled around the white of his eyes, and after telling the benevolent gentlemen “lie was in a hurry',” quietly hob bled on. Action of tho Charleston Chamber of Com merce. The subjoined preamble and resolutions, sub mitted by Henry Gourdin, l’sq., at a quarterly meeting of the Charleston Chamber of Com merce, held at the Mills House on Wednesday, the Slstult., were adopted. They evince, says the Courier, a spirit of magnanimousjiberality to which we arc glad to give dilfusiou, and which we have always felt was thoroughly characteristic of our commercial metropolis.— All rightly directed efforts to advance impor tant enterprises affecting Southern interests generally, will never be impeded, on our part, by considerations of merely’ local preferences. Whereas, a Company is about to be estab lished, to be Called the North and South Amer eau Steamship Company, for the purpose of running a line of steamships between the city of New York and l'ara, at tho mouth of the Am azon, touching at Savannah, Bermuda, St. Thomas, Barbadoes, Demarara and Cayenne; the stock of tho said Company being owned in the cities of New York and Savannah, and the said Company having applied to the Congress of the United States for an appropriation for tho transportation of the mail from and to the United States by tho said steamers; and, whereas, in the opinion of the Chamber such a line of steamers cannot be otherwise than ben eficial to the trade of the whole country, and to tho South more especially, by making the city of Savannah the last point of departure from, and the first of arrival in the United States, therefore, Resolved, That this Chamber respectfully rec ommend the application of the North and South American Steamship Company to the favorable consideration and support of the delegation of the State of South Carolina in the Congress of th United States. Resolved, That the President of the Chamber be requested to transmit a copy of the forego ing preamble tutd resolution to our Senators and Representatives in Congress. Cotton Backing. The Chamber of Commerce, of New Or leans, has issued a circular for general distri bute among factors, merchants and planters, in which complaint is made of the practices of false packing cotton. The Chamber lias de termined to endeavor to put a stop to the prac tice, by throwing all the burthens of expense, which accumulate upon such practices, upon the planters. The following is the pointed resolution adopted : Resolved, That in the ease of falsely packed cotton—“plated,” and packed with intent to defraud—wherever it bo discovered, and the marks are so preserved as to be identified, it should, in the opinion of this Chamber, be re stored as nearly as possible to the original con dition, and sent back until it reaches the door of the packer, with all its accumulation of ex penses. It is to be presumed that many, if not all, such cases originate in the malice or dishonesty of employers, aud the course re commended would be likely to induce such vig ilanco on the part of the planter as to guard against the recurrences of acts involving his good name and interest. - Explosion of a Lady. M. Bragelone tells a story of n young Eng lish lady who had the pretension to believe that she knew how to speak French and dress in the French mode. She bought one of those air-crinolines, ordered it home, and put it on, for the first time, for a soiree. But the cloth, it appears, was defective; for the first time she sat down, after her arrival at the party, a formidable noise startled the people present, and the lady sprang to her loot, fiat as a bal loon collapsed. Like a true Britou she did not lose her presence of mind, and added tranquil ly, “Oh! that is nothing; nothing nt all—it is only my w ecanigue that is deranged !” Punch says it requires nil early start, tmw-a days, for a man to get round hi M wife. Letter from the Quarter Master General of the Nicaritpuan Army to the Mayor of Columbus. New (JitT.KANM, Jan. 1 1857. Siu: 1 take the lihorty of enclosing a list of l subscription, which it is hoped you will favor with your encouragement aiul influence. The cause iu which your sympathies and those of your fellow citizens arc solicited, is one of vast interest to the South, and needs at this mo ment assistance and svmpatby.

Mason Pitcher and 8. F. Shatter, Com missioners of tho Nicaingunn Government. I have the honor to bo. Your obedient Servant, TIIOS. F. FISHER, Quartermaster General Nicaraguan Army. To the Hon.

The following statement of Cotton receipts at all the ports as compared with those of last year, is made up to tiie 2d instant, by the Mo bile Register. DECKEASE.

No such bill is required about here —the la dies are so very pretty.— Telegraph. We generally take the matrimony first and the bill afterward. —Central Georgian. And the “bill” with its silks and velvets, its lionoton and crinoline sometimes resembles a snipe’s—two long to look “pretty.” —•— An Arkansas Joke. An Arkansas correspondent of the New Or leans Picayune tells the following good one: In early times, in a county not far off, these country dram shops were common, as they were all over the Stole, where the b’hoys met every Saturday evening: to shoot for whiskey and get drunk; and cool off with a fight or two. Ou one of those occasions a big strapping six footer, full of “bust head” and Dutch cour age, having been beat at the mark by another, slapped his fists together, and swore lie was “spiling for a fight” and could whip any man whj> could beat him shooting. This was not noticed by the man for whom it was intended. That, of course, made him braver and madder. Ho roared out: “i kin whip any blink eyed sucker who kin beat me shooting, whoop-ee!” The man aimed at still said nothing. Six-footer here biled over so he waikedrigbt up to him, shook his fists in his face and said, “You kin shoot, kiti you? but you darnt to fight me—Fin a unanimous hur see! W’lioop ee!” The man addressed still said nothing. .Six footer roared again the louder, and said lto must have a fight if lie had to “buy it.” “Look’ere! Slickemgreasy, if you’ll give me S a far fight I’ll give you a cow and calf.” Slickcm deliberately began to strip. Says he, “if thars anything to lie made I’m in. Sixlboter turned a little pale—could’nt back down now—struck a ring—pitched in, and Sixlboter got most confoundedly and soundly i thrashed. “Rose, shook tho dirt off, and swore he I wouldn’t pay, “for ’twurnt in the bargain he was to lio swallojicd.’’ Slickcm said, I’ll sue you. “Sue away!” said Sixlboter; and mounted his bear skin aud rode off. Slickcm went to the county scat, saw a law yer, and told him his case ; lawyer told him it was a good case, and he would gain it for him, told him to make out an accountfor work (lone, and sue before a justice of the peace. He did so; justice of the peace gave judge ment for plaintiff, and ordered the constable to drive the cow and calf to him. Here it rested. Tho defendant was heard to say : Well, 1 reckon that mout be law, but my i loosing that cow and calf all conic 0’ my not kivcringnll the pints in the trade 1 ’sposc!” “I’ll Call Around and Pay. What a world of woe is contained iu these few words to the poor artizan and mechanic! . “I’ll civil around and pay,” says the rich man, to avoid the trouble of going to his desk to get the necessary funds, and the poor mechanic is obliged to go homo to disappoint his workmen and all who depend upon him for their duo.— It is an easy matter to work; tho only real glory in this life is an independent idea of be ing able to sustain yourself by tho labor of your own hands, and it may be easily imaged what crushing force there is in “I’ll call round and pay,” to the laboring man, who depends upon that pay for subsistence. If those who could pay would only pay at once, it would place hundreds and thousands in a condition to do likewise, and would prevent much misery and distress. Dignity nnd Stupidity. There is but one step from dignity to stu pidity, and some persons are wicked enough to assert that the latter is often mistaken for the former. We onoe knew a man who was con sidered remarkably dignified, and when lie died the physieiuus said it was from “softening of the brain.” Oh dear. It is not whut people eat, but what they di gest that makes them strong. It is not what they gain but what they save, that makes them rich. It is not what they real but what they remember that makes them learned. It is not what they profess, but what they practice, that mak ! t ieni righteous. These are plain and import nt truths, too little heeded by’gluttoris, spen! brills, bookworms and hypocrites, .!- yu>‘ t ‘ ‘oastltutianalist. TELEGBAPHIC^ TVivimiMl'.l for the l aily Hu: .

A uiau traveling, entered a tavern, and see ing no one,present but the landlord aud a ne gro. Shortly, he asked Sambo if he was dry ? Sambo said lie was Stranger told him to go to the bar and take something at his expense. Negro did go. and shortly left. Landlord says to the stranger: “Are you acquainted with that nigger? ” “No, never saw* him bofore ; but why do you ask ? ” “1 supposed so from your conversing with him and asking him to drink.” “Oh,” said the stranger, “I was only expe rimenting. The fact is, I was dry myself, and 1 thought that if your liquor didn’t kill the negro in fifteen minutes, I would venture to take a drink myself.” Landlord’s curiosity fully satisfied. Large Family. Mrs. Grcenhill, a Loudon matron of the last century, had thirty-nine children by one hus j band, all born alive and baptised, and all, save two nt single births. The last child was born after his father’s death, and lived to be a ser gcon, practising in Bloomsbury, the author of a work on “embalming.” In commemoration | of this remarkable fertility the family took for their crest a gryphon with thirty-nine stars on its wings.— Notes and Queries. Increase of insanity. The rapid increase of insanity is a signifi cant commentary on the times; upon our man ner of living and thinking. Indeed, when tve consider the habits, physical and mental, of the present generation, we almost feci that we shall ere long be obliged to subscribe to the general truth of Shakspcare’s aphorism. “We have all eaten-of tho insane root.” The eagerness with which all seem to engage in race for wealth, for pre-eminence iu social positions, iu the professions, and in all those conditons requiring intense mental activity; the total and entire neglect of the laws of physical being; the denial of indulgence in in vigorating sports, and the puritanic rigidity with which we abstain from innocent pleasures, all tell severely upon the delicate portion of our organism, the nervous system. With neg lect of the observance of the simple law’s of nature we add to the causes that bring ou a hasty decay certain artificial habits which rap idly facilitate the destruction of that suscepti ble instrument of the mind, the brain. Alco holic and narcotic stimulants aie resorted to, which rapidly reduce the vital force, and leaves us in a condition but illy fit to support us in any sudden reverse of circumstances. Our original stock of vitality is sufficiently small without subjecting it to the vitiation that nou observanoe of nature’s laws is sure to bring on.— Pittsburg Chronicle.
