Vandorveer at 16$o. per pound.— Tho cotton was tho produce of Mr. V.’s plantation in Montgomery county.

We learn by a slip from the Lumpkin Palladium that the lion. John A. Tuoker, Senator from Stewart county, died at Dawson, Terrell county, Ga., on Thurs day last. Mr. Tucker was the nominee of tho Democratic party for Superior Court Judge of Patuula Circuit. He stood, we boliovo, at tho head of tho legal profession in his district, and was popular with tho people. In announcing his death, tho bumpkin Palladium says, “this sad intelligence awakens in our bosom feel ings too big for utterance. We can but mourn his death, and tender his goiof stricken family tho gushing fullness of our heartfelt sympathy, and commit them to Him ‘who tempers the wind to tho shorn lamb.’ ” More Lnml Wnrrnnt Forget'lctt, Mr. L.

The Montgomery Mail learns that the negro, who murdered his mastor, Mr. Wiley Jenkins, in Pike county, Alabama, on Monday, tho I.lth instant, was subse quently burnt to death. It appears that the negro attempted to burn a mill in the neighborhood, for which his master whipped him. 110 then sought the first opportunity to kill his master, which he did, as beforo mentioned, with an axe.— Ho ran off, but was pursued aud caught, and dealt with by the neighborhood in the manner above stated. Wo aro oppos ed to mob law, but in instances of this kind, where the guilt is positive, wo con see no objection to making tho punishment thus summary and severe. Certainty und ■•verity of punishment will prove the most certain chock to crime. Nlmullng Committee* of the Senate.

Chnltmioogn a Georgia Town. The Chattnnooga papers aro discussing tho question, whether their town belongs to Georgia or Tennesseo. Tho Represen tative says it is a matter of controversy among old citizens, whether tho territory on which it stands is rightfully tho prop erty of tho State that claims and holds it or not, and that a determination exists with many to investigate and settlo the question. They contend that the Ten nesseo river is tho proper lino between tho two Statos, from the mouth of Chiok amauga creek, six miles above the city, to tho mouth of Nickojack Cave, forty miles below, by water. Tho Representa tive insists that it is naturally, if not le gally, the proper boundary, aud says a large number of the citizens arc anxious for annexation to the State of Georgia, with which sho is wholly identified iu sympathy, topography und trade. ‘l'elrgraiili to liuvuna. Tho Savannah News learns by a letter from C. C. Walden, of New York, that contracts have been made to build a lino of telegraph from Savannah to Cedar Keys, in Florida, via Fernandina, aud from thenco by sub-mnrino cablo to Key West, it is intended, as soon as this portion is completed, to carry tho cablo across the Gulf Stream to Havana. “It is our intention,” writes Mr. Wal den, “to make this one of tho most relia ble lilies over built. Tho contractors will commence workiu Savannah immediately, and wo hope to finish the line next sum mer. “Tho importance of having prompt communication with Key West, which is in fact tho key to our Gulf commerce, seems to havo boen overlooked by those who havo constructed most of our tele graphs, but tho necessity of it we think will warrant tho large capital necossary for tho construction of a propor telegraph ic liuo.” Congressional. Washington, Dec. 17. —In the House to-day private bills were proseuted.— Among other business, Georgia and Ala bama claims for depredations committed by tho Creek Indians were discussed, and have not terminated. Mr. Shorter, of Alabama, charged Mr. W’ashburne, of Wisconsin, with making falsoand slander ous remarks in relation to the bravery of Georgians and Alabamians. Tho House Ims adjourned until Monday. An Interesting History. Several years ago Prof. John lUhuy discovered tho virtues of a Disinfecting Substance never be fore used for that purpose. In combination with other chemical agents it makes tho most powerful Disinfectant ever produced. This article Prof. Darby used privately for a groat whilo, giving uw'Ay quantities of it to his acquaintances when ever it was asked for. Proving a serious tax upou his time nud money, ho was forced either to quit making it, or to put it before tho public os a com mercial preparation. As it had acquired some ce lebrity the oomtnuulty in which he lived urged its continued manufacture, and he thus found him. self shut up to the necessity of turning his dis covery to pecuniary account. Theso statements are matters of fact. Tho history of this discovery shows to wlmt beue fleient results scientitlc study may lead, when con trolled by patient research, directed by a well trained intellect, aud prosecuted with the devout spirit of un humble inquirer after truth. It is ex ceedingly fortunate for a gentlemau so sensitively I rellned as l’rof. Parky is, that his reputation in. stautiy redeems this important Disinfectant from ! the odium of quackery. lie takes especial delight In making known cither tho chemical constitution, or mode of action of his Fluid, to tho medical pro fession, und to all, indeed, who take interest in the subject. Prof. Daruv s preparation is fast acquiring that wide-spread aud permanent reputation to which It is entitled. GEORGIA CONFERENCE. FOURTH DAY. i The Conference wan opened at the ap pointed hour with prayer by Rev. A. Tur ner. Minutos of the day previous read and confirmed. * Tho Commitieo on the memorial of C. Austin, made a report, which was laid on tho table for the present. James W. Trawick and James T. Ains •worth were elected to Elder’s orders. Thefollowingstrangers were introduced to the Conference : Dr. Higgins, Dr. Mc- Ferrin, book agent, and Blue, Ilamill, Oliver and Sinquefield, of the Alabama Conference. R. W. Dixon and Francis X. Foster were elected to membership in the body. The names of a large number of looal proachers were called and elected to Dea con’s and Elder’s orders. A partial report was made by the board of ritewards, aud approved as the basis of settlement with the claimants. Dr. J. B. McFerrin, General Agent of the Nashville publishing house, mado an interesting report and expose of its con dition. hater from tlic Susan. By tho bark Oregon, Captaiu Cornelius Soule, which arrived here yesterday after noon, at 4J o’clock, from Barbadoes, wo are in possession of later news from the schooner Susan, which escaped from Mo bile last Tuesday night. The Oregon brings with her Lieutenant George F. White, of the Revenue Cutter Robert McCelland, who was carried away on board the Susan. Tho Lieutenant has kindly furnished us with tho following details : On Monday, December oth, Lieut. S. B. Caldwell, aud a boat’s crew from the McClelland, hoarded the Susan, then ly ing in the Bay of Mobile, some six miles nbovo the fleet, and uemanded her papers. The answer was that the Susan would wait at the lleet l'or them. Lieut. Cald well mado this report to Capt. Morrison, of tho cutter, who ordered Lieut. Cald well to tako the Susan to Dog River Bar, and there keep her ; and ordered Lieut. White to remain on board until otherwise directed. Captain Maury would not permit this and Captain Morrison concluded to ac company tho Susan to tho tlcot, and the two vessels went down on Monday night. Here they remained within one hundred yards of each other all night, Captain Morrison having informed Captain Maury that if he attempted to go out he would sink him. On Tuesday morning about ten o’clock both vessels weighed anchor and sailed about the bay until three o’clock. From three until dark tho time was’passed in sending aud receiving communications from each other. The last communica tion from the Susan to the McClelland was received at 10 o’clock on Tuesday night. Lieut. White was then informed that there was an agreement that the ves sel should come to auchor for the night, aud hearing tho anchor chains, supposed the Susan was coming to anchor, and re tired to tho cabin—and it was not until midnight that he heard orders that led him to believe that the vessel was still under way. On returning to the deck, he found the vessel heading down the channel to tho Mobile point light, and discovered she had not anchored at all, but by letting out tho chains had deceived both himself and the officers of the Revenue Cutter. It was a foggy night, and but one vessel was visible, which was supposed to be the Revenue cutter —but this, of course, was a mistake. The Lieutenant then immedi ately ordered tho vessel to come to an chor, but ho was informed by Capt. Maury that, though it was tho duty of the Lieu tenant to make tho order, it would not bo obeyed. Tho vessel then proceeded on her way uninterrupted, Capt. Maury sta ting that sho was bound to Greytown, and had Mississippi and Minnie rifles ou board. There are two hundred and twenty men on board, besides the crew. Among them, besides Captain Maury, there were Col. Frank Anderson, Col. Bruneau, Col. McDonnell, Maj. Ellis, Col. Rudler, Capt. West and Capt. Dreux. All tho men were armed with revolvers, and there were swords and other weapons on board. Lieut. White was kindly treatd by the officers on the Susan, and remained on board until last Thursday, when he was placed on the Oregon by which vessel he was brought to this place.— N. O.

MUSCOGEE PRESENTMENTS. - ’ fTIHE Second Panel of tho Grand Jurors for the 1 Fall Term of Muscogee Superior Court, sub-, iml the following as tho only Presentments they have to make: The first Panel havo so fully noticed every sub ject at all important thut we havo but little, if any thiug, to present. Wo cordially endorse and approve the most of their Presentments, and earnestly hope they may receive that attention and respect to which their importance entitles them. We have to dissent iu only one particular from tho Presentments of the First Panel. We do not think active members of the Fire Companies of the City should bo held bound to servo us Jurors. We regard this Department as of large impor tance and value to the City, and we think that the labor, the time, and tho money expended by the activu members of these Companies is ut least an equivalent for tho sorvicesof eitizensas Jurors. The Bridges iu tho County have boeu reported again aud again as iu bad condition. Ail of them are unsafe, aud several of them are impassable. The Peggy Reid Bridge, and the Bull Creek Bridge on the St. Mary’s Road, as also Randall’s Bridge on the Upatoie, are in a condition to disgrace the county, and to endanger tho lives of travelers. The public attontion has been so often, and to so little purpose, called to,this subject, that GraudJu rors have learned to present the grievance only as a matter of form. We have to thank his Honor Judge Worrill, for his kindness to our body, as also to the Solicitor pro tem., J. N. Ramsey, Esq., for his politeness and attention.

The PER FORMING ELKPIIANTS, Antony and Cleopatra, are the same which, for mouths, created the great est furore in London and Paris, while more re cently their performances were tho theme of uni versal admiration for mouths, at the .Broadway Theatre, Now York. Their wonderful docility, and the perfection of their training, make them the most interesting specimens of the animal creation that tho world has ever seen. All their faculties havo been developed to the greatest extent, and they stand forth sui generis, the most remarkable of their kind. They stand upon their heads, play upon musical instruments,ascend inclined planes, and go through all the operations of the most ac complished acrobats.
