COLUMBUS: LIROHRT CITY CIRCULATION. Wtdnml*y Morning, Jon. #T, IHSB. See rending matter on First Page. The President has issued a proclama tion for the sale of a rery large quantity of the pnblio landß in low*, in June and July next, at the tarious land offices in that State. Somo of them lie on each side of the line of railroads. --•- ■ ■ Glare ns Credit. We find in the Weekly Enquirer, of Tuesday, our dispatch giving the Euro pe’s news, copied without credit. Now, we have no objection to the copying, but cannot approve of this mode of sailing under false colors. The information con tained in the dispatch cost us about ten dollars, and wo think it nothing moro than justice for our cotemporury to buve informed its patrons of the source from whence it derived the news so far in ad vance of its sources of information. Post. Notes. Mr. Bullock has introduced, in the House of Representatives, of the Tenncs seu Legislature, a bill authorizing the Bunk of Tennessee to issue a million of dollars in post notes payable twelve months after date, it is a virtual exten sion of the capital and business of the bank, and its branches, ovor and above its present business, to that amount. . The steamer Ariel left Southampton, England, on the Hist ult., since which time she lias not been heard from. She has uuo hundred passengers, a large and valuable cargo, a heavy Kuglish and con tinental mail, and also .fit),IKK) in specie, on board. .Serious apprehensions are entertained for the safety of the vessel mid thoso on board, which apprehensions have been allayed to somo extent by the rumor, which wants coufinpation, that she became disabled and put back for re pairs. Wo hope the rumor may prove correct. ♦ A bill has been introduced in the Mary land House of Delegates, providing that such banks of the State as shall resume specie payments on or before the Ist of February, 1858, shsuld bo exempt from the penalties imposed by law for suspen sion ; that hereafter no bank shall issue notes of a denomination below twenty dollars ; and that hereafter no bank shall pay a dividend of more than eight per emit, on its capital stock, nor keep on band any surplus funds beyond eight per cent, of suid stock, but shall pay such surplus, if any, to tho ‘comptroller of the .State, for its use. ■ A joint resolution lias been offerred in the Legislature of Penusplvuuiu, recom mending the Governor to open a corres pondence with the executive of tho sever al States, on tho subjects of Banks and currency, with a view to arrive at somo uniform system of banking, and to sup press all notes under twenty dollars. Au attempt is to be made in the New York Legislature to prevent time sales of stocks; It is said thut a like attempt will also be made in tho Maryland Legislature. The suppression of such gambling specu lation would greatly benefit tho country by keeping business enterprise within legitimate channels. Toady tain. The papers of Charleston, Augusta and Havamiah, have been filled, for several days past, with tho most enthusiastic praises of Tbalberg’s uud Vieuxtemp’s ('oucerts. Wo have no doubt they make very fmo music for those who like tho style, but as for ourselves, it is too in tensely foreign and artistic for us to un derstand. And what is moro, we doubt very capitally if one half of thoso who go iuto ecstaeies over their music know whether they are play ing tunes or merely tuning their iustrumouts. With music, as well as with everything else, wo like thut best that we best uudorstand, and the French inusio, now so popular with tho fashionable world, is ns much beyond our comprehension as is tho French lan guage. In America give us American music, in Franco we should look fornoth iug else but French music. Tlie Huartrrmaster’s Depart meat. It is asserted that the deficiency in the Army Quartermaster’s Department—that is, the excess of expenditures over ap propriates—is seven millions eight hun dred thousand dollars ($7,800,(XX).) This amount will be required of Congress in addition to the very liberal sumjprovided for tho service of tho fiscal year. But the actual deficit is much greater than this, and will bo increased by tho amount of the contract just concluded for tho transportation of supplies to tho army of Utah, and by such other contingencies ns tho quasi hostilities now waging may oc casion. The aggregate, as alrondy as certained, is $9,000,000. The public fi nances have seldom been in such an un favorable condition as now. The revenue obstiuately refusos to advance beyond tho half utilliou per week, which supplies less than a third of the disbursements! Gov. King, iu his message to tho New York Legislature, says : “Out of 1,214,771 children iu the State between the ages of four and twonty-onc, 832,785, or sixty-nine per cent, of the whole, attend upon the public schools of the Slate, which are maintained at a cost to each pupil of eighty-four and a quar ter cents per month, or an aggregate per anuum to the State of $3,299,81)8.” Speaking of tho Kansas question, Gov. King says: “1 repeat here, what in my first mes sage 1 assumed as the deliberate convic tion of the free States, that ‘slavery in the States where it exists, exists by virtue of the local law alone, and that it neither exists nor is confirmed there by the force and ctfeot of the Constitution of the United States.’ ” The Wool Growers’ Reporter states tho decrease in 1857, as compared with 1850, to be 227,873 sheep, or 682,142 lbs. The clip of 1850 was 10,611,928 lbs., audthat of 1867, 9,829,809 lba. Correspondence of the Dally Sun- Chunnmuoo**, Ala., Jan. 24. Eds. Sun: The long wot spell and big rains, together with tbo low price of our great staple, and high price of our gro eery supplies, seemed to cast a gloom over our community, and for awhile eve rything about our village, and indeed our whole community, lihs been perfectly slalernaled. But the concurrence of sev eral events tended to disperse our gloom. The glad tidings announced by your pre cious daily visitor (the Sun) of the ad vance in cotton, has stirred up our plan ters, who have started their teams, roll ing off their cotton, to meet the iron horse, whoso snorting at the base of our mountain ridge wakes our morning slum bers, and wo are cheered with the hope that the meeting of the stockholders on Monday next will result in devising ways snd means of removing all obstructions, and that ere long wo shall see the stesm ears traversing our beautiful ridge to the Union Springs, which event will produce a great commercial change in all the bu siness transactions of litis region, moro especially in the cotton trade. Thou sands of bales will bo diverted from the Gulf markets I opine to your city and tho Atlantic ports. Our schools have again opeued, and our young folks returned to enliven the streets of the village. At the head of our Female College is the Rev. Dr. Elli son, a ripe scholar and a Christian gen tlemnu, who long presided over the first Female College established in the Union, (Wesleyan Female College, Macon,) where ho educated somo twelve or fifteen hun dred young luiiies, many of whom are the most distinguished females of our land. Professor Thrcadgill presides over tho Male Academy, ft gentleman of great experience, a thorough scholar and a per fect disciplinarian, who prepares a class of young men regularly for college. With such superior institutions, surrounded by the most refined society, where no temp tations are thrown in the way, for we have no loungers, no liquor shops in ail this region; and children uniformly boarded in the best private houses, all expenses included, at ten dollars, to parents and guardians who have children to oducatc no place entt offer greater ad vantages than Chunneuuggec. Yours truly, N. B. P. From the Cincinnati Price-Current, Jan. -0. The Pork Trade. The low prices current nt the close of last week induced several orders from dealers at the East, and some from the .South, and this produced quite abuoynut feeling in the market on Thursday ; and some parties in the city, seeing indica tions of an advance, purchased quite free ly with tlio view of “stepping out” again as soon as they could sell at a profit.— This was but adding fuel to the flame, and the prices of hogs advanced in three days fully $1 per cwt., the excitement reaching its culminating point on Monday morning; since then, however, the feeling has been quite dull, uud 25c. of the ad vance was lost, closing quite tamo. The receipts during the last three days have been light, but the advices from the country leave but little doubt that there are still a large number of hogs to come in. The roccipts at this place for tho week, the season, snd, comparatively, for some previous seasons, stand as fol lows: For the week 29,825 Total for tho season 378,057 Same time in 1850-7 343,817 “ “ 1855-6 389,391 “ “ 1854-5 338,343 The corresponding one with the past week, last season, the receipts were but 5,505, which closed the season. The in dications arc that we will receive at least 50,000 more at this place this season, af ter this date. Our advices from the West leave no doubt whatever of a great abundance oi hogs. At Louisville, Madison, Hender sou, Ky.; Evansville, Vincennes, Terro Haute, Lafayette, Richmond, and Crnw fordsville, all in Indiana, the packing, so far, has overrun the whole numbor pack ed at those places last season. At Gos port, Indiana, 20,000 have been packed so far, against 9,000 all last season, and at most of thoso placos packing is still going on briskly. At Oluey, Springfield, Graysville, and other points iu Illinois, the packing is ahead of last yoar, and quite a large number of hogs still to come in, and from all we can learn ws think the increase in number, as compared*with last year’s business, will be fairly 20 per cent. There will also beau increase in weight. Public Buildings. The National Intelligencer, in review ing the Treasury report, says: The statistics furnished by the Treasu ry report on the subject of public build ings erected or in course of erection are rather startling. The number of custom houses, post offices, marine hospitals, and miscellaneous works constructed or in the oourse of construction, and for which ap propriation have been mndo since 1860, are eighty-eight, of which twenty have been finished. The whole amount which has been appropriated since 1860 for these buildings is $151,000,000, and to complete these works will require addi tional appropriations of $9,000,000. — Members of Congress and citizens have asked for other new works at different points, the estimated cost of which is $7,116,000; and these new works, and probably many others, will bo urged upon tho attention of Congress during tho pres ent session. The actual expenditures on public buildings, during the last fiscal year, ex ceeded the whole amount expended for similar purposes for the 00 years that the government has been in existence previous to 1850. The whole number of public buildings authorised by Congress has beeu : Custom llnusea 07 Court Houles 13 Marine Hospitals. 24 Mint*, assay offices, warehouses, appraisers’ ■torus, Ac 17 Fire-proof vaults for public funds 00 Total 187 The appropriations at the last session of Congress for uew buildings were $2,682,861 95. Thu unexpended balance of appro priations in the Treasury towards the construction of publci buildings was on September 30,1862 #6,034,010 18 And new appropriations will be asked at the preseut session towards the works now on hand for #1,023.000 00 Making a total $0,068,810 18 available up to the close of the next fiscal year, 30th June, 1858, a period of about eighteen mouths. The report of the Bureau of Coustrue : tiou says that “ the total amount expend ed, including sites snd the estimated amount yet required to complete those in course of construction, is $31,602,415.” Francis Fena has recovered front the cities of Baltimore aud New Orleans SIOO,OOO, claimed to have been bequeath ed him by John McDonough, Esq., to be paid four years after hig death. GENERAL ITEMS. Hon. Nathan Clifford, of Maine, took hig geat in tho United States Supreme Court on Thurs day last. Capt. James Mclntosh, United States Navy, has received preparatory orders for the command of the home squadron, of which the steam frigHte Colorado, now in course of preparation for sea, will be the flag-ship. John S. Barr, of Alabama, has been appointed Consul to Melbourne, Austra lia, vice Mr. Tnrlcton. Capt. Mclntosh has received prepara tory orders, and will go out in the flag ship Colorado, to take command of the home squadron. Under the new code of revenue laws of the State of Mississippi, the tax on loan ed money is twenty cents on every one hundred dollars, or two dollars on the | thousand. The Secretary of the Treasury bus ap pointed Albert Blaigdell Superintendent of construction for the new custom-house at Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Tho Greensborough (Ala.) Beacon says that Col. Isuac Croom, of that place, has subscribed twenty-five thousand dollars for the proposed “University of the South,” for the endowment of n Profes sorship of Scientific and Practical Agri culture. The Washington Union confirms the statement that it is contemplated at the War Department to dispatch Lieut. Gen. Scott to the Pacific coast with a view of arranging for military operations against the Mormons from that side. This important movement has not, however, it adds, been definitely decided on. Two fashionable youug ladies, the daughters of wealthy parents, met in the Post Office at Syracuse, N. Y., on Friday, when one struck the othar a powerful blow in the face. The assailed went off whimpering, it was about the love of a young man. The Lowell, Mass., Courier learns that arrangements are being made to start up a part of the work on the Middlesex Mills in the courso of a few weeks. The Mas sachusetts Cotton Mills made a sale on Tuesday of 100 bales of goods, at au ag gregate of about $50,000, for foreign shipment. The Boston Courier states that owing to a blunder in legislation, any one who chooses to offer his services, and has them accepted, is now legally, a sufficient pilot for all inward bound vessels at that port. Yah-hah-Toxica; a chief of the Semi nole tribe, one of the delegation in tran sit to Florida, at the instance of the gov ernment, to induce Billy Bowlegs to emi grate westward, died in New Orleans of congestion of the lungs. The last number of Punch portrays Sir Colin Campbell presenting the whipped Indian tiger to Lord Palmerston as a New Y'ear’s gift. The Viscount says: “Well —upon upon my word—eh ! —l’m really extremely obliged to you—but—eh ! how about keeping the brute ?” Under the new law they have a double currency in Canada. Pounds, dollars, shillings, pence, cents, mills, are all legal tender, and payments to the Government, the Banks, the Law Courts, or individu als, may be legally made in either. The Recorder of New York city reports to the Council that the number of arrests for the month of December was 286. The number found guilty, 231. Number dis charged for want of proof, 55. Number paid fines, 170. Number committed to work-house, 01. The total amount of fines was, $1,162.48. The Cleveland Herald says au associa tion of Spiritualists are engaged in put ting up a building at Randolph, Chautau que county, N. A'., which shall be a per fect copy from the human form, minus the legs. The eyes are the sky-lights, and tho house has its front door, and all the vicera of the body fill their parts in this edifice. The buildiug is designated for the use of the association. John A. Seal, a married man, residing in Brooklyn, N. Y., has been mulcted in the sum of $5,000 damages, for playing with the affections of a young lady. Report of the Commissioner of Patents. The annual report from the Patent Of fice, the first from the present Commis sioner, was transmitted to Congress on the 20th inst. It embraces a complete summary of the operations of that very important and interesting branch of the government for the year 1857, and sug gests various improvements in the pres ent patent laws. Mr. Commissioner Holt has evidently given close attention to the office placed under his charge, and stud ied carefully its wants, as well as the existing imperfections in the patent laws : Applications for patents din ing year 1867 4,771 Patents granted, including design, Ac 2,910 Granted to citizens of the United States 2,808 Granted to citizens of other countries 42 The largest number of patents were granted to citizens of the State of New York, being 885 in number; to Massa chusetts, 421 ; to Pennsylvania, 814, and so on down to lvausas, 1. During tho months of October, November and De cember, the business of tho Patent Office deolined rapidly, yet tho number of pat ents issued during the year 1857 exceeded by 408 the number issued during the preceding yoar. Each successive year shows a regular increase of the number issued. Receipts of the office for the year sl9t‘>, 132.01 Expenditures for tho name time 211,682.09 Excess of expendVs over rec’ts $ 15,400.08 Tho excess of expenditures is occasion ed by payments for stationary, parch ment, and books purchased iu 1856, and by the falling off iu tho receipts of the office during the last quarter of the year. The following is a statement of tho pat ent fund:— Amount on hand January l, 1857 $ §5,109.54 Amount received during the year 196,132.01 Total resource* 351,301.56 Expenditures for the year 211,582.09 Balance January 1,1568 39.719.46 France is the only country in which a greater number of patents hare been granted titan iu the United States. With n population of nearly thirty-six millions, there were issued 6,187 patents; in the United States, with a population of twen ty-three millions, 2,910. Great Britain and Ireland, with a larger population than the United States, issued 2,115 dur iug the past year.— Washington Union. A correspondent of the Washington Na tional Intelligencer says that these pests will this year appear itt the State of Mis sissipi i, and most probably extend noi tli wardly into a small portion of South western Tennessee. They will also ap pear in a portion of the southeast see . u of Louisiana, particularly in the pari.- Iks of East and West Feliciana. They u ill not extend cast of the ridge in Missis ip pi ; but appear there (east of the ridge) in 1859, in connection with other large districts in Alabama. Georgia, &c. These locusts belong to the Southern tribe of thirteen years’ locusts. 1 TELEGRAPHIC. TELEGRAPHED TO THE DAILY SUN. From New York. Nnw Yohji, Jan 26.

The funeral of Miss Emily Gardner, late teacher in one of the primary schools in Roxbury, who died on Monday, took place yesterday afternoon. The circum stances attending the death of this young lady are of a peculiarly painful charac ter. She came before the school commit tee a short time since, at the request of several members, who wished to promote her from the ofiice of teacher in the pri mary school to the grammar school. Os an exceedingly nervous organization, she was so sensibly affected by the examina tion as to become insane, aud died from tlie effects of an over-excited mentality. The deceased was predisposed to insanity. Several members of her family have been similarly afflicted.— Boston Journal, 15 th. Surplus Wheat Iu Canada. The Toronto Colonist, in a statistical article on the grain crops of Canada West, states than th surplus wheat on hand is not less than 8,000,000 of bushels, and that no facilities exist unless they are afforded by the Grand Trunk railway for the exportation of this produce. Hither to Canada has hud purchasers for its sur plus wheat in every frontier town of the United States, and, indeed, purchasers in the New England States and New York have regulated the prices in Canada; but this year the United States itself has a surplus crqp, probably better saved than that of Canada. The occurrence, so for tunate for the United States, is the means of locking up in Canada for the present some two millions sterling worth of pro duce, for which there seems to bo no outlet. A letter to the Philadelphia Enquirer, from New York, says: Anew mania is beginning to display itself among the fair dames of Gotham. It is, of course, an exotic, and consists in a violent desire for a “handkerchief” of which useful article every lady is forced to carry two —one for use in the pooket—and the other for display in the hand. They are edged with lace. Price $1,200 a dozen. To carry tho more expensive articles, boxes of pearl have been expressly invented. — These are worth from SSO to $75. From these figures it will bo seen that it will soon cost as much to keep a wife in hand kerchiefs, as it does to keep the rest of the family in boots, buttons and house rent. A petition has been sent to Congress, by citizens of Ohio, asking the establish ment of a U. 8. Bank, with a capital of $00,000,000. This is a good time to urge such a measure, not only because the deranged state of the currency de mands it, but because the issue of Sub- Treasury notes is a democratic conces sion of the necessity for such an institu tion aud of its constitutionality. card FniJsrTxisra-.

FEVER AND AGUE.—A case of eight mouths’ standing cured by Dorbave’s Holland Bitters: Michael Kelly, No. 117 Seventh, near Grant street, Pittsburgh, says: “Lust July, while running on tlie river, on u cotton boat plying between Natchez aud New Or leans, 1 was taken with Fever aud Ague. For eight long months 1 suffered with this dreadful disease. The greater part of this time 1 was uun ble to work, aud spent ut least fifty dollars for dif ferent medicines, but found no permanent relief. Three weeks ago, one of my friends insisted upon my trying Bierbave’s Holland Bitters, saying that a cure was guaranteed. Afier taking it for one week, I must say I was a sound man. 1 have been nt work now for two weeks, and have had no re turn of the Chills or Fever whatever.” I certify that the above statement is true.
