COLUMBUS: URUHIT CITY CIRCULATION. Tuisdajr Morning, Mnli 30, ISSB. See reading matter on every page. We are indebted to Hon. Jm. H. Ham mond, United Staten Senator from South Carolina, for various public speeches and documents. On Tuesday, a Herman banker, named Ardelar, was arrosted in New York, on the charge of being a defaulter at Stutt gnrdt, Germany, in the amount of SIOO,- 000. _ Fire In Moutlcello. We learn, says the Ilainbridgc Argus, from a gentleman just from Monticello, Fla., that a destructive tire occurred in that place n few days since, consuming an entire block of buildings in the busi ness part of the town. American Cotton Planter. We are in receipt of the April number of the American Cotton Planter and Moil of the South. It contains its usual in teresting melange of agricultural mid horticultural matter. Published by Dr. N. It Cloud, Montgomery, Alabama, ut one dollar per year. ♦ An inspector of the New York Custom House, last week, seized a considerable ipiantiiy of arms—guns, swords, &c., be longing to a party of Mormons who came over in a recently arrived emigrant ves sel, and are on their wny to Salt Lake. Lieut. Sylvester Mowry has received later advices from Arizona, which state that (ln. Giimlaru, the leader of tho re bellion in Sonora, had been victorious over the Federal (lovernmont forces. The people living on tho ltio Grunde desire to be included in tho hill for orccting Ari zona into a territory which is now before Congress. — Tho Last Link. The Vicksburg Southron, of the 23d inst., is informed that the last bar of iron on tho railroad between Jackson and Now Orleans was laid the 22d inst. Some leveling only is necessary when tlie road can be used, and the connection is com plete between Jackson and New Orleans and Vicksburg by rail. The cars, it is contemplated, will run regularly between these places in less than two weeks ’■'lie Hootli Monument. The monument to the memory of the tragedian J. If. ISooth, preparing in Pos ton, is an obelisk nine feet high, upon a pedestal five feet six inches high, and is rapidly udvuucing to completion. The profile head, surrounded with luurcls, with which the front of the obelisk is to bo embellished, is completed in plaster. The monument is to be ready for delivery next mouth, when it will be sent to ltal timoro. — A private letter received in New York, dated llueuos Ayres, January 28, says: “This city is in groat commercial dis tress. Many houses arc failing, and hides are without price, us there are no buyers. When I landed hero last November, bides were Nelliug freely at 24 cents; now they can be purehased in tho city at from 111 to 17 cents. I was offered in the interior first class dry hides at 11 cents. The stock of dry hides in this city is 150,000 to 200,000.” ♦ Surrender of Billy Bowlegs. Tho Madison Messenger lias reliable information that Hilly llowlogs “lias sur rendered bis sword, and is now ut Tampa with’ his whole party, waiting the con summation of arrangements now being made, to be transferred to tho West. It is said the old gentleman was in a shock ingly ragged and dirty condition, when he presented himself at Tampa” It would seeui that the (low Boys did’nt give Billy much time to attond to his toilet. —• • ♦ Gen. I,une’s Ueply to Gov. Denver. The St. Louis Democrat publishes a card from this notorious leader of tho free Stuto men of Kansas in reply to tho proc lamation of Gov. Denver, denyiug his right to issue orders for the organization aud arming of tho mil it in of the Territory. He says that “one J. W. Denver, accuses him of arrogantly usurping and ruthlessly trampling under foot the legislative de partment of the government, and char acterises his acts as perfidious and tyran nical,” He then denounces tho Govern or as a calumniator, perjurer, tyrant, and pet appointee of the oligarchical aduiiuis tiation which disgraces (he nation. ——i Railroad* in Trias, The Houstou (Texas) Telegraph, of the 17th inst., gives tho following statement of tho length of grade and iron laid on Railroads in Texas : Ms. yr'd.

We boliove that previous to the day named the water will be let in, and that navigation will not be camnienced until the banks have been tested, and it has been ascertained that they are sufficiently strong to with stand tbe pressure ol water necessary to make tbe canals navigable. • Late advices from Texas state that sev eral oitizens of Webb County, had been seized and imprisoned by the Mexicans. A meeting of the citizens of tho County had been holden, which denounced the outrage. Webb County is in the South ern part of Texas, and borders on the Rio del Norte River, which proves tho bouudary line between Texas and Mex ico. The Kansas Bill in the Itouse. We flee it stated in telegraphic'dispatch es to the Virginia papers, that Mr. Ste phens gave notice in the House of Rep* resentatives on Thursdny, that he would, on the Ist of April, move to take up the Senate bill for the admission of Knnsus into the Union, and that on that motion he would move the previous question.— The dispatches further state that the proposition was acquiesced in by all parties. If this motion is made and the bill is taken up on tho Ist proximo, says the Augusta Constitutionalist, Mr. Stephens will probably propose its reference to (he Committee on Territories, and the strug gle will take place on that motion. The friends of the bill are strong enough to carry it, but If, by sickness, or absence from other cause, their whole vote is übi cast anil the motion is defeated, then the opposition will probably otfera substitute, and upon it domand the previous ques tion. What this substitute will be is not yet known ns the policy of the opposition in the House has not yet transpired. The southern Americans and northern Demo crat.", opposed to the bill, desire to adopt Mr. Crittenden’s as their substitute for the bill, aud to securo tbeir co-operation, ttic Black Republicans will probably adopt it. “ ~ The limlnltildge Argus. This valuable and interesting family and literary journal comes to us much improved in typography, and considera bly enlarged in its fair proportions. The Argus is one of tho best family papers printed in the State, and is highly de serving of the liberal patronage ot a Southern public. The principal editor, W. M. Russell, Esq, is a ready and graceful writer, and labors incessantly to make bis paper worthy of the liberal patronage it is receiving. lie is assisted in bis editorial labors by Miss Annie U. Blount, of Augusta, and Miss Mary E. Keen, of Bainbriilgo, both chaste and beautiful writers, and we doubt not their combined efforts will soon bring the Ar gus up to the highest standard of a lite rary journal. Wo wish tho Argus the most unbounded success in its attempts to explore the difficult and mysterious paths of Southern literature. The Argus is published at ISaiubridgc, Ga., by W. M. Russell, at $2 per year, in advance. The Future of Noulgniiiir}'. An English traveler, who was lately on a visit to the South, thus writes to the New York Day Book about the capita! of our sister State of Alabama : Montgomery is surrounded by a coun try that must, when all licr projected railways are completed, make her a great inland city, sccoud only to St. Louis.— Cotton, coal, iron, the cereals, marble, granite, &c., will come to her in abun dance—all she lacks is an outlet to her accumulating productions, on the Gulf of Mexico. This is offered by the projected railway lienee to l’ensucola, in tho State of Florida. I understand this road is under full construction with the excep tion ot about 17 miles. The whole length of the lino is Pit) miles, of which 50 miles have been graded down from Montgome ry, and 37 miles up from Pensacola, whilst 50 miles more are now being vig orously graded from the Florida line through Conecuh county. The iron.rails are being laid down for 30 miles from Montgomery, and it is said 4.5 miles will soon be in running order up from Pensa cola. It is a great and commanding work, and its projectors look forward to its completion in two years’ time. The completion of the road from Pen sacola to Montgomery at once connects New York, Cincinnati and Chicago with the Gulf of Mexico, with Cuba and Cen tral America, besides with Mexico and Texas. It is one of the base lines of communication in the United States; and Pensacola at the Gulf cud *of the base must become a great commercial city. The Houlen Overhauled for a Slaver On Sunday last the schooner N. B. Borden, J. M. Brightman, master, left Malanias for Savannah, with a cargo of molasses and fruit. She had left port about four hours, and was iu sight of Pan Matanzas, when the British steam sloop of war Styx bore down upon her aud tired a blank cartridge, at which she ran up her ensign and continued her course. The sloop then fired a shot, which fell a short distance in. the rear of the Borden. The captain of the Borden, thinking tho matter more serious than he had at first supposed, tacked ship, aud mnde for the sloop to know what was the matter. The sloop lowered her boat and sent an officer in it, who told Captain Brightmau that they had suspected lie was a slaver, and were coming on board to satisfy themselves. Cnpt. It. suggest ed to the officers from tbe Styx that slav ers did not visually load as deep ns lie then was, nor were they in the habit of carrying deck loads of molasses. A short examination satisfied her Majesty’s offi cer that ho had woke up the wrong pns sengr, nml he soon left for his sloop, car rying with him the maledictions of Cupt. B. and crew, who felt that it was a sense less aud useless interference. To use Cnpt. B.'b own expression, “1 eould have eat up the wholo boat's crew, if I'd bad salt enough. Tho occurrouco took place about four o’clock in tbe afternoon.—Sa vannah Rejiubltcati, 27 th. — Singular Accident on tho Mississippi. The St. Louis Republican of Monday states that on Thursday night, while the steamer Rodolph was moored to the Illi nois shoro taking on freight, some miles below here, the bank, which was very high and supposed to have been under washed by the late rise, caved in ou her side, burying nine men, and breaking down some thirty feet of the guard.— Eight were rescued unhurt, the other, a Spaniard, name unknown, was lost. Tborc is another of the deck-hands miss ing. It is feared that he was among the buried, aud was carried oil’ by the cur rent, which was very rapid. An Immense Claim. Nearly one half of Western New York is held by the owners under what is termed the Holland patent. A suit has lately been instituted to recover u con siderable portiou of tbe lands of the Holland Company, tho authority of its agents to dispose of them being disputed. The prosecution is conducted nominally in behalf of two children, residing, we believe, in England, but wo understand that among other prominent parties, the Bank of England is interested in the mat ter. A gentleman of Buffalo is tho nom inal defendant. Able counsel are en gaged on both sides. rfofemlanHl .lurors. Thb fcccnt expose of the mode in which juries are formed in Philadelphia is at tracting considerable attention from the very general belief that the system has often been carried out in other cities. It is a subject for serious consideration, nnd one demanding a thorough reform. The Philadelphia Ledger says : Judge Allison, in speaking of the man ner in which tho sheriff and his dep uties perform some of their duties, said it would be a question for tho court to determine whether it will not appoint two respectable citizens to serve the process es of the court. Considering how these processes have been served, and how the orders of the court have been disregard ed, the resolution to appoint some trust wort by person to perform the duties would appear to be a wise one. If the court can do anything to break up the business of “professional jurors,” it will go a great way to purify the jury-box and to deserve tl.e gratitude of the pub lic. For years past some of the worst characters of tho city have been hanging about the courts ready to be called upon to serve upon juries, and tbeir compliant friends, tho subordinates of the court, frequently, it is believed, slip them into the jury box when any special service is to be rendered to a friend, or any verdict ; given against law, evidence and justice. Nothing will ever restore confidence in it til! this whole brood of professional ju ; rors is driven out of court and honest ! men put in their places. It is iu the power of the court to do this favor to the public. The honest portion of the people ! expect that they will exercise the power. ♦- St. Lous, March 21.—A letter from Colonc Johnston, of The Utah expedition, describes bis march to Camp .Scott, com pliments his troops, and says the Mor mons have, as fully as words and actions can, manifested the intention that they will no longer submit to any government but their own, and that the people of the Union must either submit to a usurpation of their territory, nnd have a government erected in their midst, acknowledging no dependence upon or allegiance to the fed eral authority, or act with vigor and force to compel them to suocomb He expresses an earnest hope that every ex ertion may be made to forward supplies early iu the spring, under a sufficient guard of mounted men. *♦- ■ The famous ship Sovereign of the Beas, 2,400 tons burthen, was sold in London ! recently for $40,000. She was built in i !Bi>2 by Donald McKay, the Boston buil j dcr, who received for her the smart price of $1.50,000 from Messrs. French & Men ike, of New York. Before her sale in London, she had received repairs which cost $12,500. This is a striking instance of the deterioration in the value of ship ping within a year or two. ♦ Painful Occurrence. Last Sunday evening three or four youths, from our village, between the ages of sixteen and twenty, left their homes, and went strolling over the ad joining fields in search of amusement.— Getting into a playful romp, a pistol in the hands of one accidentally discharged, lodging the ball in the right breast of one of his companions, by the name of Thos. J. Bawls, inflicting a dangerous wound. Assistance was immediately procured, and the wounded boy brought into the village, where he has hud the constant attention of physicians. His condition is considered quite critical—the ball perfo rating the light lung, and lodging some where iu the cavity of the chest: where, j though the wound has been carefully j probed, tho physicians have not been able to determine. The sympathies of the community are very much enlisted in behalf of the un fortunate young man, who came into our village about two months ago, from Flor ida, for the purpose of attending school, but who, by this sad casualty, noiv lies dangerously ill, far distant from his home and his friends. This is n melancholy coifimenrary upon the impropriety of Sabbath amusements, anil ought to teach both parents and children many whole some lessons. —Anderson [S. C.) Gazette, March 24. An Unexpected Meeting. On the 23d ultimo, a passenger came to Portland by the steamer Anglo-Saxon, and took lodging at one of the city hotels. Next morning he took the cars for the city in company with a gentleman who had remained at. the same hotel with him over night, with whose countenance he somehow or other imagined himself fa miliar. They got into conversation iu coming down the Eastern Railroad, but nothing transpired to elicit the fact whether or not they were old acquain tances. When they arrived at the depot, and had attended to their luggage, one of the gentlemen inquired, in the hearing of the other, for a cab to take him to a cer tain street in Charlestown. The other said lie purposed going to the same street, and the two engaged the same convey ance. On arriving at the street in ques tion it appeared that they both designed calling on the same individual. This strange series of coincidences greatly puzzled both : but their mutual sui prise and delight mar be imagined but in a slight degree, when they found that they were brothers, aud that they had thus singularly met at the house of a third brother. One of them had been in the service of the l’uclia of Egypt for twenty two years ; the other has spent sixteen years in the East Indies, while the third has been in this country during nineteen years past. The brothers are natives of Scotland, and have not seen each other for twenty-four years. 1 “"” 1 CLOTHING AT AUCTION: ON M KPN ESDAY, ut 11 o'clock. wo will tall in front of our Store a Urge lot of SUMMER CLOTHING, just rcciived from Now York.
