CQLUMBIJH: liAHOIIT CITY CIRCULATION. : Saturday Morning, Aug. 11, 1858. I See reading matter on every page. A Healthy Town. The Albany (Ga.) Patriot says there hare been only six deaths recorded in 1 that place during the last eight months 1 out of a population of nearly 2,000. Arrest of Negro Stealers. We learn from the Savannah News that on Wednesday last John Griffin, Esau Leo and Thos. G. McFarland were arrested in that city, on the charge of negro stealing. It appears (but the negroes were stolen frotu Dennis Sapp, of Burke county, by Griffin, and sold to Lee for fifty dollars. In default of bail, tho trio were commit ted to jail to await an examination. Thu j negroes, two in number, were also taken care of. Mad Dog in Alabama. We learn from tho Autauga Herald that a rabid dog was killed at Vernon, Ala., on Sunday last. The Herald states that no person nor other animal was hit- , ten before the dog was dispatched. Mad dogs in latitudes as tar south ns Vernon are rather unusual. Wo have not seen one for thirty years, nor heard of a well authenticated case of hydrophobia in the same latitude within that time. Bibb County Tux Returns. The following return of the taxable property of Bibb couuty, has been com piled by a correspondent of the State Press from the Tax Collector’s Books. It shows an increase of $713,941 over lust year’s taxes : Polio 939 Children from H to 10 ... 837 Profession* 47 Dentiete 3 Daguerreotyplsts 2 Slaves 5,086 Value of Slaves $2,946,27 !> Value of land 1,075,16(1 Value of city property 1,963,76 K Money and Debto 2,371,433 Merchandise 780,304 Capital invested in Stocks, manufacto ries.

There will soon be, says the Memphis Ledger of tho 14th iust., some strange facts made known with reference to the intimate connection between the Citizens’ Bank and two of our Hail Hoads, in both of which Messrs. Walker nnd Turner were directors, and at the same time an accu rate history of the Little Rock Slate Company must be written, when many gentlemen will stand side by side with True and his band of thieves and depre dators, who have been figuring hero in high life. We do not know who these gentlemen are, but the facts will appear; a wonderful history is being written. The Little Rock Slate Company, the Arkansas Rail Road, aud the Memphis and Charleston Company mixed up with the credit of the Citizeus’ Bank ! Such are the ground works of the wonderful developments about to be made. We know nothing of the reliability of the suspicions afloat. Our National Wealth. The last number of Do Bow’s Review, gives the following estimate of the na tional wealth of the tho United States It will ho seen that tho value of farms, stock and implements of agriculture amouuts to nearly one-third of tho whole valuation, equalling the combined esti mated value of the public lauds, navy yards and vessels, fortifications, public buildings, commercial marine, railroads, canals, factories, mills, gold and silver coin and bullion, and foreign and domes tic goods on hand. Value of farms and cultivated i0i1....55,000,1X10 000 Value of horses, cattle. sheep,,4c 1,600 IKK),000 Value of agricultural implement*.... 500.000 000 Value of mines.....’ 4,500,000,000 Value of dwelling houses 3,500,000,000 Value of railways and cuuals 1,100,000,000 Value of factories, mills ami machiue shops 400 000,000 Value of commercial marine 200,000,000 Value of agricultural produce, do mestic manufactures and foreign goods ou hand 1,900,000,000 Valuo of gold nnd silver coin and bullion 300,000,000 Value of public lands, ships-of-war, fortifications, navy yields, public buildings, Ac 4,000,000,000 Total $32,000,000,000 Better Times Ahead. It is said in New Vork that quite an active business movement is cotumenoing in the commercial circles of that city.— Some of (ho merchants have extensive orders to fill. It was expected that the Fall trade would l>o considerable, but from presoul indications, it will bo larger tbau even tho most sanguine anticipated. Country merohauts and retailers are gen erally out of “stook,” nnd tlie prospect of better times will induce them to re plenish their stores to tho extent of their ability. From present indications the whole country will be blessed with an abundant crop. The money panic nnd financial storm have passed over, and the hoarded capital will soon find its way into the ordinary business avenues after tbe re turn of confidence. Under every aspect of tbe present condition of affairs the prospect for tbe future is cheering to all engaged in the business pursuits of life. Bank Notes. The Memphis and Charleston Rail Road Company have resolved to reject the bills of all banks except such as are of un doubted solvency. The following is a re liable list of tbe banks whose issues will be received by the Company for passen gers’ fare and freight charges : Alabama.—All Banks except the Old State Bank and Branches. Tkknessek.—Bauks of Tennnessee, of Chittanooga, of West Tennessee, Union Bank, Planters’ Bank Gxorqia.—The Banks of Augusta and Savannah. Booth Carolina.—All the Banks. Louisiana.—All the Banks. Here it is now. Here is the news from k Kansas’. Tbe Vincennes Gazette has it: V _ English Bill damned 1 “Ye Great V Pacificator” Forked End Up ! 1 Lecomp ton, Jr., Unanimously Kicked Out of Kan •as! 11 The Bribe Spurned!!!! Tbe Blavs Question Forever Removed from Congress—in a horn 1 Douglas and the President. After all it seems Mr Douglas did not differ materially from the President on tbe general principle that a Constitution of the people should be submitted to the people of a territory for ratification. In a recent speech at Pittsfield, 111., Mr. Douglas thus referred to the vote in Kan sas rejecting the Lecomplon Constitu- j I tion: By tho death of Lecompton there is a termination forever of the Lecompton controversy. It is at an end, and there ! will be no cxcn.se for that controversy to arise again, unless it is brought up in an improper and mischievous manner, for mischievous and improper purposes. I say tbe controversy can never arise again, I for this reason. The President of the United .States, in his Annual Message, declared that he regretted that the Le compton Constitution had not been sub mitted to the people of Kansas. I joined him in tho regret. Thus far we agreed, lie then declared that it was a sound pol icy to require the submission of every constitution to the people. 1 agreed with him on that. He then declared, in his opinion, that hereafter the example set in the Minnesota case, where Congress required such a submis sion, should be forever followed as a rule of action. I agreed with him on that.— Then what did we differ about? lie add ed, that while it was a sound principle that a Constitution should be submitted to the people, and that he hoped hereaf ter Congress would always require that to be dono, yet, there were such circutn ! stances with regard to Krnsas, that ren dered it expedient to admit her at once. 1 differed with him as to that. That point is now decided. The people of Kansas have decided it forever. I trust that he is satisfied with that as well as I That being the case, why should not he and I go together in the future, each standing firmly by his Minnesota recom mendation, that hereafter a Constitution shall be required by Congress to be sub mitted to the people in all cases ? If we only do that—stand by that principle in the future—then the Lecompton contro versy can never again arise ; the friends of self-government will all be united.— Let us, then, rally upon a common plank and platform, upon which all na tional men may stand, and upon which all the friends of popular sovereignty may stand shoulder to shoulder. This is certainly intended as on over ture for reconciliation with the Adminis tration, and it remains to be seen how it will be received in that quarter. Sena tor Douglas is evidently very reluctant to quit the National Democratic fold. An Item for Abolitionists, There are as many slaves within the folds of the church in the South, in pro portion to tbe population, as there are white persons, and more in proportion to numbers than there are of the white population at the North : Connected with the Methodist Church, South, are 200,000 Methodists, North, in Virginia aud Md 15,000 Missionary nnd Hard-Shell Baptists 176,000 Old School i’resbyterians 12,000 New School I’resbyterians, (supposed) 6,000 Cumberland Presbyterians 20.000 Protestant Episcopalians 7,000 Canipbellitcs or Christian Church 10,000 All other sects combined 20,000 Total colored membership, South 405,000 It is safe calculation to say that three for every one connected with the churches attend Divine service on the Lord's day. In the oxtreme Southern States there arc more, for the owners and overseers require them, in many iustnuces, to turn out to preaching generally. Then the 465,000 multiplied by three gives us 1,395.000 slaves in attendance on Divine service in the Soutli every Sabbath. Millious of dollars have boon spent and hundreds of valuable lives lost iu the at tempt to evangelize Africa, and yet slave ry, the abhorred, cursed and reviled in stitution of slavery, has brought five times tho number of negroes into the church than all the missionary operations of the world combined. Slavery has tamed, civilized, christian ized, if you please, the brutal negroes brought to this country by New England kidnappers; it has elevated them—phys ically, morally and mentally—and there fore it has proven a blessing to the negro raee. And this dny, the several Chris tian denominations in the South are doing more for the souls and bodies of the col ored race than all the freedom-shriekers, froesoilers, and abolitionists out of hell! And unfortunately for the peace of Jeru salem and the good of the colored race, there are too many of them out of tho infernal regions! —Knoxville Whig. Statistics of Kansas. The population of Kansas is 80,000, of which Leavenworth City furnishes 8,000 and Leavenworth couuty 15,000. Tho portion of the Territory north of Kansas river embraces over half of the Territory, nnd ouly one-third of the set tled country. Atchison county contains 8,000 popu lation ; Doniphan 8,000; Nemaha 2,000; Brown 2,000; Marshall 1,500; Calhoun 3,000; l’otawatamie 2,500; Riley 2,000; Jefferson 3,000. Leavenworth, Jefferson, Potawatamio, Brown and Doniphan contain ludinu re servations unsettled by the whites. The population of ludinns who still retain their tribal relations is about 3,000. Leavenworth county is tbe wealthiest in tli© Territory. Atchison, Doniphan, and Douglas, next in order. The wealth of Leavenworth City is es timated at $10,000,000; Atchison at $2,- 000,000; Lawrence at $1,000,000. The principal towns along tbe river are, commencing at the mouth of Kansas river, Wyandotte, situated at the junction of the Kansas and Missouri—population 1,200. Quindaro, on the Wyandotte lands—population 800. Weimar, settled by Germans—probable population 400. Delaware—population 500. Leavenworth —population 8,000. Fort Leavenworth— permanent population 500. Kickapoo— populationsoo. Sumner—population 450. Atchison City—population 1,500. Doni phan—population 1,000. lowa Point— population 800. While Cloud—popula tion 600.— St. Louis Democrat. New Orleans Howard Association. The New Orleans Crescent of the 14th instant, says: The Howard Association. —The officers and members of this noble organization met last evening, for the purpose of taking their usual steps toward the relief of in digent sufferers by the yellow fever—tbe fever having now reached such a point as to call them into notion. A resolution was adopted declaring tbe Association to be ready to go to the as sistance of the indigeut sick by yellow fever; the operations to begin to-morrow. From what the Howard Association has done in years pa-t, we may safely prom ise that this year it wilt keep ud its good name, and win blessings on alt sides, no matter how bad the fever may beoome. Pensacola. Our city, says the Pensacola Gazette, has been full of “strangers” for the past five or six weeks. Our citizens already j begin to realize the benefits to be derived j from our railroad enterprise. Our hotels | are crowded with guests —some seekiug pleasure, some health, some business.— j Our city is now, as it were, upon a bal ance, between a long era of obscurity, 1 nnd a bright business future. True, there ’ has been but little increase in business, apart from rail road operations; yet, business men are laying plans, and set ! ting their pegs, with a view of increasing 1 their business as soon as the growth of tbe city, at and rail road communication j with tbe up country will justify it. Pen- ‘ sncola is destined to be a place; yea, a city. Nature has dono her part, and it remains only to the people to do theirs, i This they will do, in time. What Pen sacola wants is the trade from tne cotton j region of Alabama and a portion of Geor- , gia and Tennessee. This she will get, by the laws of commere, ns naturally and as certainly as the sparks fly upward or j water seeks its level. Let the rail road to Montgomery be finished, thereby con necting Pensacola, Dot only with the in terior of Alabama, but with the whole business South ; from the Atlantic to the Mississippi, and you might as well un dertake to dam up tho Great Father of Waters, and turn its course to tbe Pacific, ; as to divert the trade from a large cotton ; growing region, to the Bay of Pensacola, i And wby? Simply because here is the ‘ best harbor on tbe coast of Florida, | Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana or Tex as ; and because nature has made here every provision for a large commercial emporium—including beauty of loca tion, the best and an abundance of pure spring water, a salubrious climate, and an abundance of tbe best timber in the world, with every other prospect held out to a city population, of health, pleasure and prosperity. The early completion of tho Montgomery and Pensacola Rail Road, is now a fixed fact. The work is steadily progressing, and in less than eighteen months from this date we con fidently expect to hear tbe snort of the iron horse from Montgomery. Some five or six miles of the track at this end of the road is now completed, and tbe iron is here to finish the road eight or ten miles further, so that in a few weeks the road will be in readiness for the burthen and passenger cars for a distance of fif teen miles from Pensacola. Major Chase, the President of the Company, is now absent, on a visit to New York, and, probably to Europe, on business connected with tbe road, and is expected, before he returns, to make a purchase of iron sufficient to complete the road to the Alabama line. Thus the work goes bravely on, and the day is not distant when Pensacola will be, to men of business or pleasure, one of the most de sirable cities of tbe South. An Eccentric Traveler. A young lady of foreign accent and of very eccentric demeanor, who was dress ed in white, with yellow boots, alighted at the Peterborough station, from an ex cursion on the Great Northern, on the 16th inst. Tho address on her luggage was as follows: “Her Divine Majesty, the Zion Holy Ghost, Empress of the Universe, Beloved Bride of Heaven, and Passenger to Silverdale, near Lancaster.” She said she was an angel from Heaven, and presented to one of the clerks at the station a kind of tract, chiefly in Latin and French, about one-third of it being in English.— Stamford Mercury. Ignorance and conceit are two of two of the worst qualities to combat. It is easier to dispute with a a statesman than a blockhead. Dyspepsia and Debility Cured.—The odore Frank, Esq., of the Pittsburgh and Steuben ville Kail llrad Office, says : “ For years I have been an invalid from Dyspep sia. With a hope of relief I resorted to many ad vertised remedies.hut failed inderivingthebenefit sought for uutil f tried your Holland Bitters, the happy effects of which upon the digestive organs, and in restoring a debilitated system, causes mo to recommend it confidently to all suffering from Dyspepsia.” Caution.—Be careful to ask for Bcerhave's Hol land ltittcrs, manufactured by the sole proprietors, BENJAMIN PAGE, Jr., & CO.

Facts for tlic People.—lt was a noted saying of the great Dr. Magendie, when lecturing before his class, “ I care not a button for theories , givo me facts.” This is likewise the motto of the celebrated Dr. Bragg, who, by a careful observance of facts alone, lias l>eeu enabled to briug his medi cal preparations to such perfection. His latest in vention, tlie Arctic Liniment, Is also his greatest invention; and it may be stati das a “ fad for the people,” that it is tlie best liniment now in exist ence, and destined to supercede all others. Anoth er fact is, that it never fails to cure those diseases for which it is lecommended. The best evidence of the value of a medicine is, that it effects a radi cal curt, amt this is eminently the case with the Arctic LiDimeut. It cures Rheumatism, Neural gia, Paralysis, Sprains, Bruises, Burns Scalds, Ac., and alleruptive diseases: and is equttlly efficacious in caring the diseases of animals, such as spavin, riug-bone, poll-evil, Ac.

Ainbrotype art is one of the most pleasing _L and fascinating arts in existence. Although one of the most youthful, it far outstrips all others in absorbing interest. In popular enthusiasm and the attachuient of all classes and conditions of persons, our art carries the sway. Its peculiar ex cellence is available in our open walks of life, among the putdic objects and distinguished char acters of our country. But oh! how much more valuable and lovely in the domestic circle and fires de! There is its most peculiar charms aud brightest triumphs ; togazi upon the lasting shad ow of a near and dear friend who is mouldering in oblivion’s grave. The true artist, in this reflec tion, feels the moral and elevating power of his profession ; the family group pictured by the light of heaven, under the guidance of artistic skill, shows one of tho most capt,rating pictures that can well be conceived of. We have produced ma ny such, and never without a glow of exultation. Ambrotypes, oh ! what delight To gaze upon thy worksoflight, How high the polish, pure the tone, And every face in nature's own Lovers, of all others, are the best subjects for sitting, although the most difficult to please. We have witnessed many a scene when the eye flashed with lustre, and the tell-tale face showed that the heart throbbed at the first glance of the magic picture. Ob! see what a picture! Behold what grace lives in the poaturo and beams in the face. As the sunlight transfixes the soul-speaking eye, It flashes in joy, thuugh there’s nobody nigh. Who nobody is, there is no need to tell, Since the lassie herself knows the secret so well, Enough that we trace such touching perfection, The intended and object of cherished affection. Columbus.
