COLUMBUS: LAROBBT CITY CIRCULATION. Wednesday Morning, June l| ItftT* Hon. Alfred Iverson will accept our thanks for a copy of the Report of the Decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, and the Opinions of the Judges thereof, on the case of Dred Scott versus John F. A. Bandford. The ‘Walker Excitement. The enthusiasm for Walker still con tinues in New Orleans. He attended the Ampitheatrc on the night of the 28tli ult., in company with his staff, and was greet ed with the most enthusiastic demonstra tions of respect. He had also received and accepted an invitation to address the citizens of New Orleans on the3oth ult.— His friends say that within sixty days he will be amply supplied with men and mo ney, and all the necessary appliances, to return to Nicaragua and re-establish An glo-Saxon domination in that country. ♦ Arrival of Ibt Canada. The steamship Canada has arrived with three days later news from Europe than the Arabia’s. The Liverpool cotton market was un changed nnd no excitement existing. — Sales for the three days previous to steamer’s sailing Hi,0(10 hales. Money market was unchanged, and consols arc quoted at 03} to 93J. Dred Scott's Family Emancipated. The wife and daughters of Dred Scott, about whose case there has been so much excitement, was emancipated ut St. Louis, Missouri, on the 27th inst., by their own er, and was forthwith transferred to the guardian care and protection of their lov ing friends in the old Hay State. Won der how long it will be before they will wish themselves back in slavery, and their quasi friends will wish them in pur gatory;’ Fire In Nashville. An extensive and disastrous fire oc curred in Nashville, Tennessee, on the 27th ult., by which the Works of the Nashville Manufacturing Company were totally consumed. The loss is estimated ut SIOO,OOO, upon which there was an insurance of only about $56,000; but the saddest part of the accident, is the throwing out of employment a* out one hundred and fifty men, who were work men in the Works, and who will thus be deprived of the means of supporting themselves and families. Lots of Sympathy but No Money. Governor Gardner, of Massachusetts, for once in his life, bus done a good dceo in vetoing the bill for appropriating SIOO - for aiding the Free State party in Kansas, and the House refused to pass it over the Governor’s signature. That’s the way with abolitionism—always plenty of sympathy for the poor negro, but al ways very chary of tbeir dollars. As the above quotations are Democra tie, wo may publish without any violutioi of our “independence,” may we not, Mr Columbus Buu ?— Georgia Citizen. Certainly, friend Citizen, for nobod; would ever suspect you ol leaning lower Democratic principles after reading you paper for a week. But put yourself ui. der our tutelage for awhile, Mr Citizei and we think we can teach you how t< edit your paper without exhibiting you Kuow Nothing proclivities so muniiesth as you have been doing tor some tun past. Don't understand, neighbor ours, that we object to your proclivities foi any party you may have the mind ti favor ; it is only for your sailing uudei false colors that we have rapped your kuucklos, for which you will thank us after the hurting of the operation ceases. Mobile and Ohio Bail Hoad. The process of track laying on the Mo bile and Ohio Hail Hoad, says the Tri bune, in advancing with considerable ra pidity. Horse Hunter creek wns crossed last week. The read is now .complete two miles north of Macon. The Compa ny are increasing the number of working hands as fast as possible. They pay good wages, and employ every man that they can get to work. The iron recently pur chased in Boston lias been shipped, and is expected to arrive in a few days. Napoleon nml Alexander. A Faria correspondent of the New York Courier, alluding to the intimacy that lias grown up between Alexander 11 and Louis Napoleon, says: 1 kuow that the Emperor Alexander 11 has intimated, to his Imperial brother, Napoleon 111, a desire to meet him at Berlin, in the month of August next, and that that interview will take place if the Russian Autocrat declines the pressing invitation to come to Paris, which the Count de Monty was empowered to con vey, and is endeavoring to have accepted. The writer states further, that an alli ance, offensive or defensive, will soon take place between the two Empires, and that it will lead to the disolution of the Austrian Empire. This is rather start ling. hut by uo means impossible. Breckinridge's Successor. Hon. Jas. B. Clay, the son of the sage of Ashland, and an Old Line Whig, has been nominated as the Democratic candi date for Cougress, from the Eighth Dis trict of Kentucky, which was represented by Hon. Johu C. Breckinridge, in the last Congress. The name of Clay is a tower of strength in that District, and as it went Democratic at the last election, it is reasonable to presume that his chances for election are very favorable. .Rioters Arrested. The Grand Jury of Louisville, have found true bills against some seven pier sons, engaged iu the riot iu hanging the negroes in that city some time since by mob law, several of whom have been ar rested, and most probably will be tried at the present sitting of the Court. The Louisville Journal says one of those ar rvsted .fought like a good fellow when taken, but finally had to cave, as he was overpowered and safely lodged in jail. j Editorial Correspondence. Montoomf.rt, Ala., June 1* I arrived here Sunday morning and found.the city thronged with delegates to the Gubernatorial State Convention, as well as qgite a sprinkling of aspirants for the honors of the Governorship; and but for the knowledge that it was Sunday, the stir and bustle among the delegates and candidates would have led us to be lieve it any other day. At 12 M., to-day, the delegates assembled and the Conven tion organized in the Representative Hall of the Capitol. The Hon. John Erwin, of Greene, was elected President. The or ganization complete, a committee was appointed to prepare and present to the Convention, to-morrow morning, a series of resolutions setting forth such line of State policy in relation to State aid to Rail Roads, as would be a guide or plat form upon which the party should act in the approaching campaign; in other words, to engraft on to the great stem of Democracy the new sion of anti-State aid to Rail Roads. At this stage of the pro ceedings the disposition of the anti-State aid men was to adjourn the Convention over till morning to prevent a nomina tion until after the committee could bring forward, and the Convention adopt, the platform. Numerous motions were made to adjourn and voted down by decided majorities. On a motion to go into the nomination, a debate sprung up which showed that a largo portion of the body were opposed to any expression of opin ion touching State policy, and my opinion is that decided anti-State aid resolutions will be either given the go-by or voted down, if such are reported. One ballot was had this evening, and resulted as follows: John E. Moore, of Lauderdale, 150 ; A. B. Moore, of Perry, 107 ; W. F. Samford, of Macon, 77 ; John Cochran, of Barbour, 80; Felix G. Nor man, of Franklin, 19; and David Hub bard, of Lawrence, 18. Three hundred votes arc necessary to a choice. It is thought by many that the full strength of John E. Moore has been ex hibited, and this conclusion is arrived at from circumstances which arc too appar ent, that trading hits been going on be tween his friends and a distinguished politician in South Alabama, involving a seat now held in t he United States Senate by a North Alabamian. My opinion is, the struggle now is between Cochran and A. B. Moore. Some rich sparring is looked for on the presentation of the report of the commit tee to-morrow—all the members of which arc of the most ultra class of anti-State aid men. * * * Crops in Georgia. An intelligent gentleman who has long been engaged in cultivating the soil, and who has traveled over large portions of Marion, Macon, Sumter, Stewart and Chattahoochee counties, informs us that everywhere he lias been the corn and cotton crops are very backward and the cotton crop the most unpromising he lias ever seen. It is his opinion, that with .he most favorable weather from now till picking time, more than half a crop can tot reasonably be expected in the cotm tes named. The stands of cotton are not inly bad, but. what did come up has a tckly, stunted appearance, which he does tot think it can ever recover from, even •vill) tlie most luvorabie seasons; iu addi ton to whicli u great deal of it is dying ■utright, iu some instances leaving in ervals in rows of twenty or thirty yards, ut scarcely a single stalk. We hear like complaints from other quarters, and hence we conclude that the growing crop will uot reach beyond that of last year, it it even amounts to as much. The corn crops look better, but arc very backward. With favorable seasons, however, a fair crop may be reasonably calculated upon, and all the panic about breadstuffs may be safely put to rest. The wheat and oat crop in the section above alluded to, though they form but a small portion of its staple productions, is the most promising ever known, and if no disaster happens to it before harvest, the yield will be unprecedented. ■ ■ lnteretlK *•> Corn Planters. A writer iu a Memphis paper recom mends the subjoined plan for killing crows: Take a horse hair two inches long, tie a knot at one end, run it through a grain of com, and throw the grnins broadcast over your farms The crow will swallow the grain—tho hair sticks out at the mouth, and produces irritation and in flammation, which causes the crow to commit suicide by clnwing his throat for relief. This is no humbug. The Montgomery Messenger says it may be “uo humbug,” but thinks it a species of cruelty no man of good feeling would he guilty of. Did you ever have a farm, Brit.! If you did, and have had your corn pulled up by the pesky var mints like we’ve seen them do it, we think your sympathies for them would, like Bob Acres’ courage, “ooze out at your fingers’ ends,” or there are more of the Christian virtues in your composition than wo give you credit for. Virginia Elections. Ihe returns trom the elections in Vir ginia, which was held last Thursday, so far as received, show gains for the Dem ocrats. Richmond, for the first time in years, gave a Democratic majority. The entire Congressional delegation will pro bably still contiuue Democratic. Fire and Loss of Life. The India Rubber Company's building in Patterson, N. J., was destroyed by fire on the morning of the 28th ult. Loss $16,000. Five men were killed and one injured by the fall of the building. A Kiss for $7 30. The Chicago Tribune states that a man named Hosley, in that city, undertook to kiss the wife of an Indian doctor, named Brooks, with whom he was on terms of intimacy. The husband hearing of the matter, instituted a suit, for slander, ag unit Hosley, and the jury gave him a verdict of $760. Rail Road Connection. At a regular meeting of the City C oun cil, on Monday night last, the following proceedings took place, in relation to forming a connection between the differ •ent Rail Roads that concentrate at this point, which we publish by request, in order that our readers may see how the “city fathers” stand upon the question. When the time arrives for action upon the question, we shall not hesitate togive our views upon it fully and without re serve. Until then, we shall occupy a po sition of “armed neutrality.” By Aid. Gray Whereat, there has been an effort made, and now about to be consummated, to establish a railroad con nection between Savannah and Eufaula, Ala., viaCuthbert, and that said Road will operate, when completed, against the prosperity of this city, and the stock she owns in the Mobile and Girard Rail Road, be it Resolved , That the Mayor be, and is hereby authorized and instructed to call a meeting of the citizens, on , for the purpose of taking this subject into consideration, and adopting such steps as may be deemed necessary and expe dient under the circumstances. Aid. Quin moved that the resolution be laid on the table, which was agreed to. — In agreeing thereto, the yeas and nays were required to be recorded. Veas 7, nays 5. Those who voted in the affirmative were Aid. Clark, Durkin, Gager, Perry, Quin, Walker and Wright. Those who voted in the negative were Aid. Ayer, Chapman, Ellis, Gray and Sloan. Extension of the U. S. Capitol. A correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce, writing from W ash iagton, gives the following interesting ac count of the extension of the Capitol: A thousand men are at work on the capitol alone. That will be a wonder when completed. It is unsightly new, for the old dome is broken off and they are just now laying the foundations pi the new and splendid dome. Seventy two iron brackets, weighing between two and three tons each have been lifted to the summit of the building by the aid of steam power, and are to constitute the frame work of the base. The fluted col umns, large and long, now lying on the ground, will soon be raised to their pla ces, and the proportions of the magnifi cent superstructure will begin to appear by the time the travelers go by for the White Sulpur Springs of Virginia. Wal ter, the architect, is ambitious to erect for himself a monument at the same time, on the principle of Sir Christopher Wren’s Circumspice. Latrobe’s old dome had its day of admiration and vituperation, as has Greenough’s sitting statue of Wash ington in the eastern park of the capitol; but it has disappeared. Randolph’s sar casms will endure as long as the statues and paintings at which they are levelled, and the memory of the originals longer than either. Nothing can exceed the beauty of Crawford’s works, most of which are in shops adjacent to the capi tol some in an unfinished state, the Ital ians being at work upon them from the plaster models. Among them are the Genius of War, of Peace, of Industry, of Knowledge, &c. All these works are destined to adorn some portion of the capitol extension, while the interior rooms are growing beautiful under the skill of the pictorial artists. Indeed this build ing will of itself, be a vast museum open to the gratuitous inspection of the peo ple of the United States, and of the world, without money and without price. The rustic representative from the far interior, where arts and cities are unknown, will open his eyeß and mouth in wonder, as he looks upon the gorgeous works of art destined to decorate the capitol. In truth, such is the profusion of symboli cal ornament the Italian painters are putting on the walls of the committee rooms, that most persons will require an interpreter to bring them within the un derstanding. All this seems hardly com patible witli the simplicity of our institu tions, but what shall the Government do with its superabundant money? Disturbance in the Georgia Military Institute. The Marietta Georgian, of Thursday last, says: We understand that thirty of the Ca dets of the G M. Institute have been ex pelled for going into G. N. Eldred’s Cir cus Show, which has been exhibiting here for the last two days. The crime, as we understand, was in signing a written pledge, (which was a plain violation of the rules,) to go to the Circus, whether the Superintendent would allow them or not. We learn that five of them have left for their homes—thirteen have recanted, and intend trying to reinstate themselves— the others are to leave in a few days. We are truly sorry that a Circus should be tbe cause or such a material injury to our Institute, nnd hope if consistent with the regulations of the Institute, that the matter may yet be all amicably and sa tisfactorily udjusted. A Royal Marriage Likely to be Broken Off. Harper’s last Weekly adds; “Is the marriage of the Princess Royal to be bro ken oft ? ’ and adds the following curious statement: Strange rumors have been afloat in re ference to the marriage of the Princess.— It is well known about the royal circle that the young Prince of Prussia, during his long stay in England was allowed all the familiar privileges awarded affianced young gentlemen in a less elevated sphere, and that the graces of the young Prince's person and manners has a real, an unaf fected influence on the mind of the Prin cess Royal. To be brief, and so avoid circumlocutions, it was admitted that these useful scions of royalty loved each other as other people love, who intend to wed. The unpleasant stories in question say that the projected marriage is to bo set aside for the sake of public conveni ence. For reasons of a political nature, the Prince df Prussia is not to wed the Princess Royal of England. It is said that, after the decided feeling shown at the hustings, Lord Palmerston dares not propose the dowry which the Prussian Count considers essential. The London Times, of the 6th, admits that in England they neither know nor can learn the rights of the difficult v be tween the United States and Grenada, but that, “ whatever the United . .ates does in these regions will be better than the work of adventurers.” If our Gov ernment should take possession of the Isthmus, the Times concludes that Great Britain “ would have but small reason to I regret the change, and can only desire j that it should take place as quietly os possible.” California Seal. The advices from San Francisco by the steamer Empire City, at New Orleans, are to the 6th inst. The Golden Gate left San Francisco on the sth of May, and arrived at Panama on the morning of the 19th, bringing 810 passengers and $2,000,000 in specie, all safely landed at Aspinwall by half-past one o’clock the same day (19th.) The U. S. sloop-of-war St. Mary’s arrived at Panama from San Juan del Sur on the 17th, bringing as passengers Gen. Walker, and staff of six teen officers; of these Gen. Henningsen proceeded to New York on the Illinois. The news from California is of very little interest. The legislature of the State adjourned on the 30th ult., after a session of four months, and the passing of 280 bills. Among them was one sub mitting to the vote of the people the question of calling a convention to revise the constitution. The miners continued to supply the usual amount of treasure, and agricultu ral prospects were encouraging. Crops were far advanced but suffering some what from drought which prevails throughout the State. The health of San Francisco continued good, and about the usual number of crimes and casualties are reported. The following account of the condition of the mining business is from a San Francisco paper: “The accounts received from the min ing sections of the State continue to be as favorable as ever, and vast quantities of gold are shipped to the seaboard. The supply of water is generally more abun dant than usual, owing to the extraordi nary amount of snow lying on the moun tains. The quartz mills in the central counties are doing better than ever. The cumbersome machinery in use at first is rapidly becoming supplanted by that of a more suitable character, and there also appears to be much more system in the management of these quartz enterprises than formerly. Owing to the unprece dented height of the streams, the season will be far advanced before mining in the drained channels can be profitably or successfully carried on, and up to the present we have heard of no contemplated damming or tiuming operations. A Conspiracy In Mexico. A great excitement existed in Mexico at the last dates, in consequence of the discovery of a conspiracy to assassinate Presideut Comonfort on the night of the 26th ult., in which Osalles, Miramon, Cobos, Miranda and ex-minister Aguilar are said to be implicated. A certain No guera is declared to have been the person selected to perpetrate the deed. A num ber of arrests have been made, and the affair is undergoing a searching investi gation. The accused parties consist ex clusively of persons engaged in previous abortive attempts at revolution, and who owe their lives and immunity to the ill judged clemency of the President. There seems to be no doubt of the seriousness of this plot to overthrow the government. The Estnndarte gives full details of the manner in which it was revealed by the discovery of a note which had been inad vertently dropped near the palace gate, and says that the writer of this paper had confessed every thing. Noguera, the one chosen to carry into execution this atro cious plot, was a special favorite of the President. A Charlostown Alderman and §20,000 Missing. The usual quiet of the city of Charles town has been greatly disturbed in con sequence of the sudden disappearance of Alderman Ed. Ward. Many were inclin ed to disbelieve the story, but. upon care ful inquiries, it was found to be true.— It is probable that he left last Wednesday. He carried on the lumber business in company with Thomas Greenleaf, under the name of Thos. Greenleaf & Cos. Their wharf is located at the Neck, on the Mys tic river, and he has had the principal care of the business. It is thought that he lias taken from $15,000 to $20,000 with him, of money belonging to the firm and others, which will fall heavily on his partner. Before leaving, he converted his dwelling house and other things into cash, leaving nothing which his creditors can get hold of. lie has heretofore had the reputation of being an honest and upright man. He was a member of the Board of Aldermen of Charlestown, having been elected to that office two years ago by handsome majorities, from Ward 3. He was also a member of many of the Committees, and was a man who looked after the interests of the city with a careful eye. —Boston Traveler. Death of Lieut. Strain. We regret to learn by the Illinois, of the death of the gallant Lieut. Strain, whose suffering, heroic endurance and perseverance as a leader in the Darien Ex ploring Expedition sent out by our Gov ernment a few years ago have given his name to fiime. Lieut. Strain, died at Aspinwall on the night of the 13th instant, and next day was buried in the Mount Hope Cemetery. The Aspinwall Courier says: The funeral was attended by most of the officers of the Cyane, and a few from the Wabash, and some twenty-six sailors from the Cyane, fourteen of whom acted as pall bearers, and twelve as substitutes for ma rines. Ou arriving at the grave the Epis copal burial service was read by the Chap lain of the Wabash, and three volleys were fired over the grave by the sailors aforesaid. The pall-bearers and sailors in attendance were in charge of Midship man Gove, and the sailors (vice marines) in charge of Midshipman Allen. Both these officers and their detachments per formed their duties well—and the entire conduct of the ceremonies was creditably executed. Submerged Railroad. The New Orleans Crescent says':—A portion of the track of the Racine and Mississippi Railroad, which was built across a bottomless slough, half a mile in width, has sunk and disappeared from sight. The embankment wus constructed by throwing in trees and large brush wood, and piling the earth upon them. The slough was of such a nature that, even with this superficial mode of con struction, two years were consumed in throwing the embankment across it. The settling of the earth, during the progress of the work, caused the slough to rise a distance of fifty feet on each side, from ten to twenty feet above its former level. Rail Road Subscription. At a rail road meeting held in Conecuh county, Ala., on the 11th ult., the sum of 5,8,000 was subscribed to the Montgome ry and Pensacola Road, which, in addi tion to SB,OOO subscribed last summer, raises the subscription of that county to 510,000. The 4th of July next was fixed upon as a suitable period for holding another meeting, and a committee was appointed to prepare a grand dinner for that occasion. Speakers and railroad men are invited to come from all parts to join in the proceedings. —Ptntacola Gaz. No Starvation in Tennessee. Brownlow of the Knoxville Whig, of the 25th inst., says that the tales of want and starvation in Tennessee, so exten sively circulated abroad, are greatly ex aggerated. There is a general scarcity of grain, especially in five or six of the upper counties, owing to the failure of the crops the last season, and the temp tation of exorbitant prices that induced farmers to sell out too close. These with the early winter and late spring, were enough to produce scarcity, but no one has yet perished and the false alarm of “starvation” is a vile calumny and slan der on East Tennessee. We are glad to hear this, and only wish the same con tradictory statement might prove true in every other part of the country. Bank of Fulton. This institutiorf, being now firmly es tablished in the confidence of the people of the surrounding county, wishing to in crease its business, opened its books a few days since for further subscriptions, since when 379 shares of stock have been taken, making in all 2104 shares, of SIOO each, of which fifty per cent, has been paid in. Pursuant to previous notice, the stock holders of the institution met yesterday for the selection of directors for the ensu ing year, when the following gentlemen were chosen: A. W. Stone, J. I. Whitaker, E. W. Holland, Wm. Ezzard, A. Austell.—At lanta Intelligencer. Rise in Real Estate. Some years ago Henry Clay purchased some land four miles from St. Louis known as the “old orchard tract,” for sixty dollars an arpent, (the arpent 85-100 of an acre.) It descended to his son, James B. Clay, and the other day 45 arpents were sold at auction for SI,OOO per arpent. A large quantity yet remains to be sold. Rev. George M’Clatchey, a minister of 27 years standing, and of late a resident of Katesville, Canada, has been commit ted to jail for having forged a certificate of losses from fire, with the intent to de fraud the Provincial Insurance Company. The forgery was made perfectly appar ent. He'The following, from the pen of ex-Senator Ilannigan, of Indiana, will be appreciated by all: 11 We cannot refrain from calling the attention of our readers to the “ Hair Restorative” of Prof. 0. J. Wood. It will bo seen that he has numerous certificates from persons of the highest character, to the merits of his Restorative. From positive knowledge we arc also enabled to say that it is in every senso what it professes to be, and we do not hesitate to pronounce it the finest preparation for the head and hair whicli has, so far, been devised by human ingenuity. We have seen it arrest threatened baldness, and restore to the head its original profusion of natural and glossy hair, and when the latter has been prematurely tinged with gray, we have seen it, like magic, restore the colors of youth and health. The distinguishing property of this, we might truly say, miraculous “ Restora tive” is, that it gives to the person who uses it the same head of hair they wore iu youth, thus acting in strict compliance with the first and greatest of all toilet makers—Nature. No one who has used it will hesitate to unite with us in this testimony to its peculiar merit.”— Covington (Ind.) People’s Priend.
