COLUMBUS: Wednesday Morning, March 18, 1857. LARGEST CITY CIRCULATION. City Treasurer’s Report. The reader will had on the third page of our paper to-day the report of Mr. Lloyd, City Treasurer, giving the condition of the city’s finances on the 12th instant. Cash on haud at that date sll 58. Tho Duel that didn’t Oocur. The duel uuuounced in Saturday’s Mail, which was not to be “ postponed on account of the weather,” did not come off. The affair was not, as we supposed, between Posey and Dykous. J. W. Phillips, of the Chambers Tri bune, appears to have been the party to whom Mr. Posey desired to pay his respects. Mr. l'osey returned to Montgomery on Mon day morning, and has furnished to the Mail ‘‘A Card,” embodying the correspondence in the affair, which, on account of its length, had to lie over. Hog Report. VVe publish this morning from the St. Louis Merchants’ Reporter, n statement, as full and as reliable ns any that will appear this season, of the number of hogs killed in the West for packing purposes. It covers the whole coun try, and required enterprise and industry in procuring and compiling the figures and facts. It is now well known that the crop is shorter than last year by six hundred thousand head. The fact, has excited operators, and all the markets of the country are wild, considering the early stage of tho season. At present pri ces consumption must fall off. People will eat beef, and fish, and vegetables, before they will pay such rates for pork and bucon. Wo wnnt the planters of the surrounding country to read and ponder over tho facts it contains before they plant all their lands in cotton. Theatrical. Our citizens we know will be pleased to learn that we are to be favored with a profes sional visit from tho Nashville Company. We may expect them here in the course of a week or ten days, and lovers of the drama and comedy will joyously anticipate much rare amusement and rich mental feasts from these talented dramatists and comedians. The lessee and manager is Mr. J. If. Ferdon. In the play of “ Ingoinar. the Barbarian,” those ac knowledged star artists and widely famed metropolitan actors, Mr. and Mrs. W. M. \\ ard, will personate the leading characters of lngomar and l’artheuia. In the comedy line, that seoond self of the comical liurton, Mr. J. 11. Tozer, will be commauder-in-chief. We anxiously await thoir advent in our city, and our anxiety has doubly increased on reading the following from the Georgia Telegraph of the Kith instant: “Great success, in spite of wind and weath er, has attended the Nashville Company the past week, and they open to-night (Monday) a week’s career which can hardly fail to be one of unusual brilliance even for them. The town will bo lull of visitors in attendance upon the races, and few of them will lend a deaf car to the claims of the irresistible Tozer—a come dian scarcely behind llurton in comicality— the dramatic genius of Ward—and the attrac tive grace and beauty of his estimable lady. 1 he whole company sustain themselves ably, and will reap a harvest in Macon. ’’ As we understand these celebrated perform ers are ably sustained by other actors of emi nent genius, we sincerely trust our citizens will extend to this excellent company a com pensating patronage during their brief sojourn in Columbus. .Dean Cotton in Alabama. Hie Kean cotton recently noticed as having been sold in Now Orleans for nineteen cents per pound, was produced on the plantation of Col. John M. llurke, in Wilcox county, Ala bama, who says it can be raised in this State in equally as great abundance, and with no more trouble than the ordinary cotton which now sells at twelve cents. Ilis attention was first called to it by an article, which appeared in the Mobile Tribune, urging planters to give it a trial, and notwithstanding the general opinion that it could not bo cultivated with profit on our soil, ho engaged in the produc tion of it. Last year he raised fifty bales, and so well satisfied is ho of its adaptability to the soil ot Alabama, that ho has determined to devote liis attention exclusively to its cul tivation. 1 his pioneer etlort of Mr. 11., to improve the character of our cotton, is certainly vory commendable, and we hope that his example will lie lollowed by planters generally through out the cotton region. JN egro Thief Picked Up. The Mobile News says a man by (he name of John Wilson, a New Yorker, was arrested near Nnpoleonville, on the 10th snstant under circumstances that led to the belief that he had stolen and was running off with a negro fellow, the property of Mr. lien. Smith, of Benton, Ala., aud who, together with Wilsou, had been working for some time pnst at Mor ton’s bakery in Mobile. The negro on being closely questioned, acknowledged the name of his owner, when the two were takeu to Mobile and locked up. Wilsou was required to give a bond of SIOOO to appear at the City Court to answer to the charge of negro stealing. The negro was remanded as a ruuaway. The Guano Islands. The Navy Department has issued an order to Commodore Mervine to dispatch a vessel to Jarvis Island with a view to making soundings, ascertaining its locality, aud the quantity and quality of the guano said to exist upon it.— Also to visit the island to which Commodore ltoutwell was dispatched in the Independence, but was unable to exploro on account of the peculiar season of the year. Relief to Broadway. A proposition is beforo the Hoard of Alder men of New York, to open anew Avenue on the west side of the city for the relief of Broadway, 75 feet wide, by extending and wi dening Greene street from Fourteenth street to Canal street, aud then widening Church street and Trinity Place to the Battery. For tlif Hally S.m, Pronunciation Corrected. Messrs. Editors: There are two words in the English language that are so cruelly persecuted with false pronunciation, that 1 have conclud ed to come to the rescue through your columns. Tho first is the celebrated fertilizer, guano. This word is almost invariably pronounced in in three syllables, gu-un-o—whereas it is a word of two syllables only, and should be pro nounced gwano ; a in first syllable having tho same sound as in the word fate. The second is the word preventive, which is frequently pro nouuccd in four syllables, pre-veu-ta-tive—the ta should be omitted, there being no such word in our language as preventative. P. —♦- - —, A Rights of Reporters and Corporators. The ease of the ejectment from the Council Chamber, by the order of the Mayor of Colum bia, 8. C., in 1855, of the editor of the Caroli nian, came before the Court of Sessions in Co lumbia, on Thursday last. The Carolinian says: ‘‘After the evidence on the part of the plain tiff making out his ease, we think, very clear ly, was closed, Col. M. Gregg, one of the coun sel for defendants moved for a non-suit on a point of law, that the Mayor and Aldermen of the city, alias the City Conned, were lawfully in possession of the Council Chamber, as their domicil or castle, to which the entrance of citi zens was altogether permissive, and only at tho will and pleasure of said Council; that the pre sence of citizens at legislative or municipal coun cils was not a right of the citizen, hut a privilege allowed by a body in session, in which preroga tive it was supreme—having the right of exclusion and expulsion, at will and without cause. ‘‘The motion was earnestly pressed and ad vocated by Col. Gregg and J. D. Tradewell, Esq., and opposed by John Bauskett and It. Yendon, Esqrs. [The extraordinary proposition of Messrs. Gregg and Treadwell was overruled by his Honor Judge Withers. ‘‘The evidence was closed on Thursday eve ning, and yesterday the case was argued by Col. Bauskett and R. Yeaden, Esq., for the plaintiff, and Col. Gregg and J. D. Treadwell, Esq., for the defendants. At the close of Mr. Yeadon’s argument, his Honor Judge Withers, adjourned the Court to 10 o’clock this morn ing, whon he will deliver his charge and com mit the case to the jury.” How Emancipation Works in Jamaica. A lecture was recently delivered in Phila delphia by Mr. Robert Campbell, on “The Ne gro in Jamaica.” As Mr. Campbell, so we are informed, has long resided in that island, his testimony is entitled to respectfiul considera tion. In the course of his lecture, he made the following admission: “The present condition of the island was not calculated to give it a high rank in the eyes of the world. The negroes having ascertained that by culture of small portions of ground they can support themselves, are satisfied to do so, without the exercise of energy. Asa natural consequence, a traveler through Jamaica will find large estates, once rich and fertile, now laying absolutely in waste, and overgrown with grass. Although cattle can be raised, yet beef is imported ; although Indian corn would flourish extensively, yet meal is pro cured from America; although the coasts of the island abound in fish, yet Halifax supplies the article; and numberless other commodities arc imported that without difficulty could be produced at home.” Patent Suit Against the United States Gov ernment. U. S. Circuit Court, N. Y.—lngersoll, J.— March 4.—Sickles vs. ltogers.—This was a motion of injunction against the United States steamer Bibb, to restrain'the use of improve ment in casting the steam chests on the cylin ders, patented by Fred. E. Sickles, Sept. 19, 1845, and applied to that vessel without the license of Mr. Sickles. Mr. McKeou, the Dis trict Attorney, appeared for the Government to resist the motion, but the same question having been decided in favor of the patentee on Tuesday, in the case of Sickles vs. Samuel L. Miller and Horatio Allen, the Court order ed au injunction to issue, Mr. Dickerson agree ing with the Attorney that ho would not serve it until thirty days, giving the Secretary of the Treasury that time to pay the patentee for the use of the improvement. This is probably the first time that the Government has appeared in Court iu the character of and infringer of a pa tent, and the prompt decision ought to be a warning to Government officials not to disre gard the rights of patentees. The Cuba Slave Trade. A letter in the l’icayuuo from Havana, says: “The slave trade is quite active now, and ves sels are almost daily dispatched to the coast of Africa. The brig Miller, formerly of your city, sailed hence on the 4th. She cleared this cus tom house for Montevideo, but every body saw her slave deck when she was being fitted up in Regia. We hear of no landings all along the coast, and the fact is so notorious that every onebegius to believe that eertaiu parties, high iu office, not excluding foreigners, have lent themselves to the scheme, and are in actual possession of nice sums for their complais ance. Rrig. Lerrano, Governor of Trinidad, is reported to have realized over $200,000 within the last thvco months, for which he lias been removed from office by Gen. Concha. He is a native of the town of Puerto Principe, and one of the few Cubans who have ever been able to get au important office iu thoir own country.” A Columbus Graduate. At the recent annual commencement of the Medical Department of the N. York University, no less than ono hundred and twenty diplomas were awarded to graduates, nearly one half of whom hailed from Southern States. Os all this number, George S. Hardaway, of this j city, graduated with the highest honors. We 1 learn from tho New York correspondence of \ the National Intelligencer that “ tho three j medals contributed by Dr. Valentine Mott to j tho most distinguished candidates for gradua tion were awarded, Mr. George S. llarda- i way, of Georgia, coming in for the bronze one as the writer of the best clinical report.”—Kn quirer. A correspondent of tho Boston Traveler, writing from Kansas, mentions a rumor that there has been secretly organized in Missouri about 3,000 armed men, to invade Kansas and take possession of the Shawnee, Miami and other Indian reserves that will be opened this spring for settlement. The Shawnees have made their selections, and the remainder, con taining about two thousand claims of ICO acres each, comprising some of the finest laud in Kansas, will be open early in March. The Missourians, it is alleged, liavo been selectiug claims for months past, but the whole story is probably greatly exaggerated, if not untrue. In the sugar market of Havana for tho week ending 7tli tliero was no falling off either in the demand, supply or prices of sugar, aud more activity was anticipated in this line.— The exportation of sugar during the übovo week was 28,268 cases, 7,734 of which were consigned to New York. Exports of sugar for 1857 up to 7th March, 124,426 cases. From the MenLantN Importer, tit. Louis. March 4. Hog Statistics. We present below a full statement, with the , exception of a few unimportant points, of the number of hogs cut during the present season. The compilation from Missouri, Illinois, lowa, : ami a portion of other States, is made up from : the correspondence of the Secretary of the .St. Louis Chamber of Commerce, and that of In j diaua, Kentucky and Ohio from returns re ; ceived by the Cincinnati Prices Current. Tho I total amount between the two tables differs to | some extent. The difference may be accounted for, in some degree, from the fact that at this place we have added several new points to the list heretofore published, and further, that important errors have been committed by the Prices Current of Cincinnati. For instance, LaGrange, in lowa and Missouri are given by that print with exactly the same figures, while there is but oue point by that name; and Lcwistown, 111., is put down this year at over thirty thousand head, while the actual sum is but three thousand five hundred. By another season our own publishers will be likely to assist more generally in the collection of valua ble statistical information on this and other commercial subjects. The deficit, this year, according to our state ment, is (il’li,B7<> head, being G 0,431 greater than the deficit given by the Cincinnati Prices Current. We think, after a careful examina tion, our statement will be found correct. The yield of lard this season is, as far as we can ascertain, about two pounds to the hog less than last season. The proportion of bar rel pork and box meat put up this season is greater than last season ; and of box meats, that is. meats intended for the English market, greater by thirty per cent, than in any pre vious year; consequently, notwithstanding the pork crop is an exceedingly short one, the quality of bacon prepared for, and which will be exported to England the present season, is greatly larger than that of any previous sea son. The exports to the East, so far as they have been received, compare as follows: 1855-8. 185 G-7.

Our readers will, perhaps recollect that, some eighteen months ago, Jame3 A. Price, was put upon trail at Union for the murder of a man named Hughes, in the far-famed “Pea- Ridge ” country. In consequence of the ill ness of one of the jurors, a mis-trial was had. Before tho setting of the next term, Price es caped from prison and made his waj’ to Ten nessee, where he remained until last December. He was then apprehended, brought back to Union jail, again put upon trial, last week, and found guilty. The sentence of the Court was stayed by the motion of liis counsel, Messrs. Herndon and Bubo, for anew trial, which will be determined in the Court of Ap peals, in May.— Yorkvillc ( S. C.) Enquirer. Almost the Georgia Uniform. A crazy man caused some consternation a few days since, by entering a passenger car on the Central Rail Road, near Rochester, New York, primitively clothed in a hat, cloak and a pair of boots. A sudden flush of heat caused him to attempt to hang up his cloak and “cool off’,” which caused some screaming, a little fainting, the stoppage of the train, and the return of the lunatic to the asylum where he belonged. Civility is a Civility is a fortune in itself, for a courteous man always succeeds well in life, and that even when persons of ability sometimes fail. The famous Duke of Marlborough is a case in point. It was said of him by one cotemporary, that his agreeable manners often converted an enemy into a friend; and, by another, that it was more pleasing to be denied a favor by his Grace, than to receive one from other men. The gracious maimer of Charles James Fox preserved him from personal dislike, even at a time when he was politically the most unpopu lar man in the kingdom. The history of our country is full of examples of success obtained by civility. The experience of every man furnishes, if we but recall the past, frequeut instances where conciliatory manners have made the fortune of physicians, lawyers, di vines, politicians, merchants, and, indeed, in dividuals of all pursuits. In being introduced to a stranger, his affa bility or tbe reverse creates instantaneously a prepossession in his behalf or awakens uncon sciously a prejudice against him. To men, civility is in fact, what beauty is to a woman; it is a general passport to favor ; a letter of recommendation written in a language that every stranger understands. The best of men have often injured themselves by irritability and consequent rudeness, and the greatest scoundrels have frequently succeeded by their plausible manners. Os two men equal iu all other respects the courteous one has twice the chance for fortune. —Philadelphia Ledger. ♦ The French residents of Havana, in accord ance with a suggestion and invitation of the Cuban citizens, have joined in extending to Lamartine (now poorly off in France) an invi tation to make for him. in Havana a home. It is not yet known whether “Le grand poete, le grand orateur et le grand historian” Lamar tine will quit la belle France to necept such a | noble tender. —.— i A correspondent of the Herald says that it | is absolutely certain that lion.

To those who are not aware that each par ticular hair on the head is a hollow tube, through which the fluids circulate which con vey nourishment, and impart its pcculair shade of color, it seems incomprehensible how resto ratives can produce a renovating iniiuence. While preparations of this nature were en trusted to quacks, and Ignorant manufacturers of perfumes and cosmetics, much and irrepar able mischief was inflicted on many a credu lous and deluded sufferer. But when scien tific men like I’rofssor Wood, bring the lights of physiology and chemistry to bear upon the treatment of such specialties, the result is the complete success which the certificates of thousands of relieved sufferers bear testimony to.
