Brooks, of Harris, under sentence of death, and passed tho same and sent it to tho House. In the Houso, most of tho business transacted was of a local character. Tho hill to make uniform the decisions of the Supremo Court of Georgia, and to regu late reversals of tho same, was discussed and passed by a vote of 95 to 37.

To meot this the city has not n dollar in its Treasury.— Where Is the money to como from ? Here tofore tho city has been able to obtain money by pledging its bridge reveuues, which usually umount in the first two months of tho year, to sorno six thousand dollars. That source having been de stroyed, tho city has nothiug now to oiler but the bridge itself. Whether they will bo ablo to obtain money on it is yet to be testod. if they succeed, bowevor, whore are they going to get the money to lift the mortgage. It is true our comprehen sion is quite dull, and possibly on this account we cannot see us others do, and especially those who have been tho active participants in throwing away tho bridge revenues. Possibly “Ono of the Com mittee,” or somo oue of the six Aldermen who voted for freeiug tho old bridge, can enlighten us. Joint W. White Not l)ea<l. This gentlcmau, who was arrested mid examined at Chattanooga, Tennessee, this fall, on tho charge of forging applications for laud warrants, and bound over for his appearanco before the Federal Court in tho sum of $25,0(10, was reported by uuinerous letters to his friends and con ’ nections, not long sinco, to huvo died in Arkansas. The hand writing so nearly resembled White’s, his brothers went to Arkansas and disibterred the body, nud decide that it was not White's, though it was dressed in his clothes. Tho whole scheme seems to have been concocted to defoat the ends of justice and relieve bis bondsmen ; but it was too lamely gotten up. Ho was a member of the Teunessce Legislature, a lawyer of fuir standing, and possessed so much of the confidence of the community previous to his arrest, that many were slow to believo him guil ty after hearing tho testimony, lie is now a guilty wanderer, hiding from tho consequences of ids enormous crimes. -■ ■ ♦ “Wliy don't Mayor Wilkins Pm no Injunction on I lie New Bridge 1” When iu the street tho past week, the above question has frequently been asked us by the opponents of the New ltridge— nud among others, some of tho opposing Aldermen. According to the best in formation wo have as to tho powers of the Mayor of Columbus, he possesses no authority to do an act involving tho ex penditure of money without being in structed by tho action of the City Council to do so. Tho Council having failed to authorise or require him to enjoin tho Bridge, ho has failed to do it, though, ns wo Amotc, ho has every disposition to do so. The fact is, the mnjority of tho Couucil huvo no desire to close tho New Bridge, as by so doing they would ccaso to liuve uu excuso for keeping the Old Bridge free, and of depriving tho city, in its most difficult crisis, of this reliable source of revenue. What other conclu sion can sensible men como to ? They can’t throw tho responsibility on Mayor Wilkins; lie Las no power to act iu tho matter except by their direction. The Chattanooga Gazette, of tho 27th, says: “Several weeks ago a revival com menced in tho Cumberland Presbyterian Church in this city, under Rev. Mr. Tem pleton’s oharge, and services were con tinued in that and other churches until last Sabbath night. We learn that be tween thirty and forty professed religion. At an election held in tho lvnoxvillo (Tenn.)

We have a full account of tho final pro ceedings of the Louisville meeting. On Saturday the business committee made tbeir report on the address and proposi tions of Mr. Fowlkes. Wo omitted yes terday to state that that committee was composed as follows: Rob. V. Richardson, of Tennessee ; W. G. Brownlow, of Tennessee; Franklin Go rin, of Tennessee; Judge Shannon, of Missouri; M. F. Crigler, of Ohio ; Lucius Desha, of Kentucky ; D. P. Henderson, of Kentucky; J. 11. Harney, of Ken tucky ; and Jeremiah Morton, of Virginia. Tho report of this committee was unan imous in tho expression of their convic tion, that all the rights of the stockhold ers will be secured by the payment of $327,000; that the new company will surrender the road and property, tho State of Texas will dismiss the suit, and the work w ill immediately proceed with out embarrassment. Their plan for rais ing this money, and for action subse quently, is embodied in a scries of reso lutions, containing the following propo sitions and recommendations, which were unanimously adopted : Au advance or loan is requested from each stockholder of the five per cent, stock, to the amount of fifty cents on each share; or, if the stockholder prefers, lie inay surrender to the company, in lieu of the advance, one-half of tlio fully paid stock. Sums thus advanced, with inter est, may be converted into full paid stock, ut par, within twelve months. For additional means, stockholders are earnestly requested to pay up before the 20th ot December all instalments now due on stock, and to advance the instalments which will be due on the Ist of January. Tho time for perfecting the arrangements expires on the 15th of January. It is also determined to expose for sale, as soon as possible, all stock on which in stalments now duo shall not be paid be foro the 20th of December, and all stock on which instalments due on the Ist of January shall not be paid. The President is empowered to sell tho stock donated, or surrendered, or forfeit ed, and authorized to dispose of the other assets of the company, and employ the funds in discharging these debts, with the limitation that all expenses shall be paid out of collections, and not out of any loan made to tlio company. Tlio convention appointed local ogents for collecting these instalments and ad vances, and surrender and donations of stock, with a power in the President to increase t he number and to fill vacancies. Tho ugentß appointed are Edwin Post, of tho city of New York; YV. & If. Burk hardt, of Louisville, Ky.; M. F. Crigler, Cincinnati; J. D. ltagland, Petersburg, Va.; YV. G. Brownlow, Knoxville, Tenn.; A. 1). Stewart and Charles MoLaurin, St. Louis, Mo.; A. M. Holbrook, New Or leans : Col. J. S. Bens Mobilo ; -lay Cook, Philadelphia; Boling Baker, Atlanta, Ga. ; Thomas J. YVilcy; Marshall, Texas. Direct remittances may be made to Mr. Fowlkes, President, at Memphis, or Mr. YVilcy, Treasurer, at Marshall. The elec tion of anew Board, and the new organ ization, was postponed to an adjourned meeting of stockholders, to bo held iu the city of New Orleans, on the 20th inst.—a fortnight from next Monday. The twelfth resolution declares it to be tho opinion of tho convention, from re ports and examination of the affairs of company, that all the rumors of the issue of fraudulent stock are groundless—that no such stock exists. It was stated in tho debate on this head that, instead of millions of shares fraudulently issued, the whole number on the books was hut 620,- 000 ; and that the New Y’ork stockholders iu the convention surrendered one hun dred thousand of theirs to tho uses of the company, leaving only five hundred and twenty thousand shares, at $0 per share representing $2,000,000. The committee strongly concurred with tho President in the proposal to reduce tho shares to their uotual value, as paid in stock at $5 per share, instead of rating them in account at STOO. A resolution was adopted iu favor of the construction of a further section of fifty miles of tho road as soon as possiblo ; and another recommending the call of a convention of railroad men, and delegates from tho cities, interested in this route, for tho purposo of combining action in favor of tho road, to be held at some con venient tiuio to ho hereafter decided on. Tho thanks of the convention were given in very warm terms specially to Dr. Fowlkes, for his able, faithful and cnor getio efforts made gratuitously for tho company, and expressing their confidence in bis ability, with the co-operation of tho stockholders, to raise tho company from its embarrassed condition, and place it on a firm and substantial basis. Thanks were also given, by name, to Y’ico Presi dent Todd, and Mr. YVilcy, tho Treasurer; and a very grateful acknowledgment was tendered to the fricuds in Texas who co operated in these arrangements with their friendly aid and counsel. The President of the convention, lion. J. Morton, spoke strongly in favor of tho report and the road, and the prospects of reestablishing the company. l)r. Fowlkes, tl.e President of tlio company, on being called upon, spoko briefly to the business of the meeting, in the following straight forward style: “In the report which I made 1 could not go into the prospects for raising mon ey. 1 have letters from stockholders from all parts of the United States, and with only one single exception, all ap pear to ho willing to pay up the money required. Hut further, if the -00,000 shares will ho surrendered, the residue will ho at par. 1 believe 1 will be ablo, in the city of New Orleans, to raiso mon ey, botween December 20th and January 15th, sutlicient to pay off all our indebt edness, and with $50,000 1 can make not a slight step towards freeing this compa ny. It is foolish, gentlemen, for ono as old as I am to talk of delay. 1 want to go to Chiua before 1 die. When this money is raised fifty miles can he built in ono year ; then you will have seventy-five miles. 1 have told Texas, give us this chance, and if the stockholders do not pay this money by the time, I, for one, cauuot and will not longer hinder the Stnto in her great and favorite enterprise. 1 have here tho opinion of tho attorneys, which says, though the executive sword is over your heads, still tho penplo of Texas de sire the road to bo finished, and will assist and protect you.” The convention adjourned on Saturday, to meet iu New Orleans, ns resolved on in ono of their resolutions. By that time we 1 hope to havo it in our power to report a consummation of these plans, so as to set at rest finally the question of the settle ment of these difficulties, and the final I adjustment of the affairs of tho company 1 on a solid basis, and the consequent pros ecution of tho great work to early com- ! plotion. Congress convened yesterday. Boutli Carolina Senator. In Saturday’s issue we announced the election, by the Legislature of bouth Car olina. of tho lion. James Chestnut, Jr., United States Senator for six years from the 4th of March next. He received 92 votes, a majority of 30. In spoak ing of the result, the South Carolinian has tho following remarks: This has probably been the most ani mated and protracted contest ever wit nessed in our Legislature. Each candi date has been adhered to with a tenacity fully exhibiting tho confidence which .their respective supporters reposed in them. Tho selection of Col. Chestnut is a most fortuuato one. Tho State, al though nearly unanimous in all matters involving the principles of Stato Rights, was in imminent danger of being riven and distracted by party divisions on points of very immaterial consideration. Col. Chestnut occupies the position which enables him to harmonize tho distracting elements, and preserve that unanimity so much to be desired. He belongs to the strictest school of State Rights—he be lieves that these principles are the chief corner-stone of tho Union. Ho is, how ever, not an ultra man ; ho was opposed to sccossiou, and took position openly and firmly against it. lie is known to be op posed to tho agitation of the slave trade question, and also to national conven tions, but does not regard advocacy of tlio convention as a surrender of State Rights principles. He may be termed a conservative State Rights man, and in that position is decidedly a representative man of South Carolina. Col. Chestnut is now about forty-three years of age, in the full vigor of his health and intellect, and his Senatorial career will no doubt be a calm, dicnified, firm and consistent one. Elected by no clique, faction or particular party, he has before him the opportunity of shaping his career un pledged and untrammelled. We believe lie will prove himself not inadequate to the position, or undeserving the high trust his friends have reposed in him. On Friday, Col. Chestnut was elected without opposition, for the short, or un expired term, of Senator Evans, deceased. On the announcement of the result, Col. Chestnut, in an appropriate farewell ad dress, resigned his position as President of the Senate, and Ills seat as Senator from Kershaw District. . Dungings in Hew Orleans* The TAttle Gianl and Traitor to his par ty, uud now the leader of the free dirt democracy, Stephen Arnold Douglas, had a grand reception in New Orleans on Thursday evening last, by the odds and ends and disappointed politicians of almost every conceivable hue. Verily, the Woutli is fast becoming revolutionized. How long will it bo before Senator Se ward will be making a triumphant tour through tho South ? Douglas and Se ward have both pronounced against the Dred Scott decision, and both hold to the doctrine of the right of a Territorial Leg islature to exclude slave property from a teiritory while in a territorial state. The only reaming difference between thorn now, is that Senator Seward has recently taken a forward stop, and de clared that the contest is between free and slavo labor, and that tho one or the other must eventually prevail over the entire Union. How long it will be beforo Dougins will be stealing this thunder, is doubtful. Judging, however, from the progress he has made in twelve months, it will not be long. Wo blush for our native South. The Princess Mathildo Bonaparto has received from the Sultan a most superb prayer-carpet, the valuo of which is re ported to be between three and four thou sand pounds. The phrases from tho po ets, which form the border, such as “Bose of the Garden,” “Bud of Delights,” &c., aro woven in pearls, and emeralds into the cloth of gold, of which the carpet is composed, while the sentence from the Koran, which occupies tho centre, is composed of diamonds.
