The present City Council of Mobile, have raised the salary of the Mayor of that city, heretofore S3OOO, to S4OOO. A fire occcurred at Woodville, Miss., a short time ago, in which property to the amount of $70,000 was destroyed. The block of fine stores—nine in number— known as Itoston Row, was burned, only one of which was insured. Wo learn from the Marianna Patriot, that last, week while Mr. Everett’s exhi bition at Greenwood, in Jackson county, Fa., was progressing, the scats fell, break ing a man’s leg. Mr. E. procured medi cal assistance, and advanced fifty dollars to pay the expenses of attention. —♦- The Watrous Impeachment Case. This case, which has for somo time been pending before Congress, was brought to a close on Wednesday last, by a vote of 111 to 01, declaring the evidence insuffi cient to establish the charges preferred. Gill House Burnt. Tbo Macon Telegraph learns that the gin house of Col. Dcmsey llrown, in Hous ton county, was again destroyed by fire last Friday. It will bo recollected that Col. llrown lost a gin house early last Fall, by some means, aud, as ho believes, by the hands of an incendiary. The “Daildy” Hall;. We saw the heaviest bale of cotton weighed at the warehouse of Messrs. Grconwood & Gray, on Monday after noon, which has ever been along in those parts. It weighed B‘JO pounds, and was very llttlo larger than a five hundred pouud bale. It hailed from Harris county, in this State. look Out fur Counterfeits. We have been shown by Mr. King, paying teller in the Ilank of Columbus, a twenty dollar note on the Hank of Ham burg, 8. C., which is the most perfect counterfeit ever perpetrated. Wo append the following description, as furnished us by Mr. King, that the public may be posted up in regard to tlicso bills: The body of the lotters “Bank of Ham burg,” darker than in good note. Divisions in the arches of the bridge in the rear of Vignetto darker than in good note. On good note, period after the word “demand”—none on counterfeit. On good note, commas between J. J. in Cashier’s signature—none on coun terfeit. On good note, in the “o” of No. on the right of note, two dots—none on coun terfeit. On counterfeit, with aid of glass, can see tracings around signatures, as though done with the point of a pin. On good note, the red engraving around “20” is much brighter and more distinct, than in counterfeit. On good note, the light back of palm tree, in centre of Vignette, is brighter, and shading much better. ■ A IleHcne. The Huntsville (Ala.) Democrat of tho 15th instant, states that on tho Saturday previous, Mr. John Q. A. Carter, of Whitcsburg, Madison county, was arrest ed by the Sheriff of Madison, by author ity of tho Governor of Alabama, on a requisition from the Governor of Penn sylvania, and was brought to Huntsville and delivered over to three Philadelphia police officers, who were about to secure him with hand cuffs, when several friends of Carter, armed, walked into the Sheriff’s office and told Carter to go with them.—■ lie did so aud the company mounted their horses and rode off. The Democrat says that about two hun dred citizens wore assembled, most of whom approved tho rescue, on the ground that Northern States would not allow similar process to bo executed there on the requisition of Southern Governors as in case of fugitive slaves. Sumo threats against tho Philadelphia police officers were intimated, aud a citizen, to whom they brought letters, very properly took them to his house, until they could got off on the rail road cars. Coilfgl'VlititOllAl. Washington, Deo. 20.—1n the Senate to-day the Pacific railway bill was dis cussed. A substitute was offered by Air. Wilsou, of Massachusetts, providing for tho building of that road by the govern ment, but bis amendment was negatived. In the llouso, tho old soldiers’ bill was discussed. A resolution looking to the census of 1800 was passed. A joint resolution was adopted that both houses of Congress will adjourn on Thursduy next, uutil the 4th day of Jan uary. Vessel Injured. Norfolk, Dec. 20.—Au arrival at this port announces that tho Southern Star was badly injurod at Harbudoes. Detention of the Stenmslilp Ariel. Halifax, Dec. 20.—The steamship Ariel arrived here to-day short of coal, in charge of the first officer. During a gale on the Bth iust., ti heavy sea struck the steamer aud killed Capt. Ludlow, aud seriously injured the second officer aud two seamen. The first officer was slightly injured. She leaves to-morrow for New York. ♦ ■” Tlie Negroes of the Nlngurn. The correspondent of tho New Y’ork Tribuno furnishes some interesting par ticulars in addition to the accounts wo have published concerning the departed Africaus of the Echo’s crew. He writes : “Let me remark of two peculiarities l noticed in the negroes of whom I am writ ing, as 1 have not seen a published allu sion to them. Many had ou their arms a kind of circumcision mark, which seemed to gain revereuce from those who were not thus particularized, aud to denote a sort of superiority in the tribe to which they belonged; others possessed double rows of teeth, ranged like galleries, one behind another, au eccentricity they ef fect by preventing the pulling out of the first teeth, by strenuously replacing them i if they do fall out. These negroes are j •abject to an abdominal disease, whioh is so disastrous in its nature, that I wonder ] how any of them live a month when it attacks them, although I am informed i they linger years after its appearanco. I GEORGIA CONFERENCE. SIXTH DAY. This body met at the usual hour yester day morning, and was opened with prayer by Rev. W. J. Parks. The minutes of the previous day wero read and confirmed. The Rev. C. R. Jewett and Rev. W. J. Scott of the Conference, and 8. Yancey, of the laity, were elected to fill vacancies in tho Board of Trustees of LaGrange Female College. The Rev. J. 8. Key was elected to fill the vacancy on the Committee of the Fund for Special Relief, occasioned by tho resignation of Rev. W. G. Connor. The Rev. It. B. Lester was elected in the place of Rev. R. Lane, removed to Texas, on the Fund of Special Relief. The Rev. John W. Simmons ,vas ad mitted to tho traveling connection. The Committee on tho Book Repository presented a report, which was laid on tho table. The Rev. John W. Burke, agent of the Tract Society, made his report; which was received and adopted. The Rev. J. B. Harbin, whose case was under consideration when tha Conference adjourned the day previous, was again called, and after some discussion, his character was passed by resolution ; but he was not elected to Elder’s orders. The Rev. C. K. Marshall, of Mississip pi, was introduced to the Conference. The Committee on Special Relief, made ttieir report, and the fund was distributed; nnd another collection was taken up for the same. The “Expunging Resolution,” which is designed to expunge from the rules of the General Conference of (ho Methodist Episcopal Church, South, the rule agaiu6t “tho buying and selling of men, women and children, with an intent to enslave them,” was voted on by the Georgia Con ference, und sustained by the unanimous vote of the Conference. Tho report of the Committee on the Book Repository, which was adverse to the plan of the Financial Secretary, Rev. R. Abby, was taken up and Dr. McFerrin addressed the Conference nt length in support of the Abby plan. When ho con cluded, Dr. Boring took the floor in reply to his positions aud in opposition to the Abby plan in to to, and before he had concluded, the hour of adjournment ar rived aud the Conference adjourned to 3 o’clock. At three o’clock the Conference re assembled and Dr. Boring resumed the floor and occupied about ono hour and a half in a masterly argument against the Abby plan. He was followed in a short, but good humored reply, by Dr. McFer rin, and in a few remarks by Mr. Myers, editor of tbo Charleston Christian Advo cate, in explanation. Tho Conference then called for the vote on tho question, and having voted approv ingly on some three points of the plan, the body adjourned. Unfortunate. One of our leading Presbyterian cler gymen, wbilo visiting a brother minister at Patterson on Tuesday last, for tho purpose of officiating in his pulpit on that evening, had his overcoat and shawl sto len from the hall of the residence of his fellow-preacher, while the family were partaking of their evening meal. In the pocket of the coat wero four sermons— one of which the gentleman designed de livering on that evening—but having lost them ho was obliged to speak extempo raneously, and, of course, under a disad vantage. It is hoped that the thief will road the discourses, aud so profit by them as to hereafter obtaiu his clothing in a more honest rnauucr. —Neivark Daily Ad vertiser. The Rev. Daniel Downey of Stanu. ton, Va. This clergyman, of tho Catholic Church, during last month, was sentenced to eight years’ iucarcoratiou in the Virginia l’eni teutiary, ou tho chargo of having shot ami killed in an altercation a man who had seduced and refused to marry a ser vant girl iu Downey’s employment. Since the trial and tho hearing of evideuce, it is said that popular sympathy has been in favor of tho accused, so as to consider the sentence highly severe. We see by the Htauntou papers that anew trial has been granted Mr. Downey by Judge Thompson. Ministers Solicited. We are serious in the expression of the opinion that those clerical geutlemeu, now visiting our city, would greatly benefit themselves, as well as benefit humanity, by inquiring iuto tho merits of Prof. Dauiiy’s Disinfecting Fluid, by adopting its use, and by circulating a knowledge of its virtues amongst their people. This course involves uo compromise of miuieterial dignity or influence, since the article is not a patent medicine, but is a scientific preparation sanctioned by highest medi cal authority as a Disinfectant, aud likely soou to be most widely aud successfully used as a Thera peutic agent.

This Gin, distilled in Londun from sound Bar ley, under the surveillance of the British Ex cise Laws, is delicately flavored with a tinc ture of tho Italian Juniper Berry, and some of the moat valuable restoratives of tho Vegetable Kingdom, rendering it, in the opinion of the most eminent modical men, the purest and safest stimulant or diuretic drink in use. It is a delicious tonic, of a soft and delicate fla vor, differing entirely from any other Gin, and devoid of that harsh, acrid tasto, which renders the article known as Holland Gin or Schnapps so objoctionable. Though not intended as a medicine, it is recom mended by physicians generally in cases of Dvs pkpsia, Gout, Rjisumatihm, Dropsv, Gravel, Colic, Cholera, Fever and Ague, Stricture, Diseases of tho Urinary Organs, the Kidneys and the Bow els, Nervous Debility, Ac., whilst the weaker sex will find liy its adoption a sure relief from those distressing annoyances which frequently attend their delicate organization. Dr. Valentine Mott, of New York, the highest medical authority, pronounces Charles’ London Cordial Gin “not only superior to any other, hut the best article of the kind he has ever seen.” It is peculiarly adapted to settlers iu the South ern aud Western States, as well as for travellers exposed to changes of water and air. For sale in quarts at seventy-five cents, and pints thirty-eight cents, by all Druggists, Grocers, Fruiterers and Couutry Merchants. Beware of imitations. Buy only CHARLES’. NONE OTH ER IS IMPORTED.

April 7.1858-ly. ♦ Woittlerful I—Accident and various applica tions have lately developed somo very wonderful and most pleasing results. Ono gentleman writes from Albany, N. Y., of very astonishing effects in liis case (given up by all the doctors of that learn ed capitol.) Auotlier case just transpiring iu Phil adelphia, now attracting uo little attention, to gether with somo others, a statement of which the Dr. is uow preparing, will soon turu such a tido of inquiry atid interest upon my ELECTRIC OIL, as was never before directed to a medical discovery. More has already beeu demonstrated than we dare proclaim ; us it would uot be half believed. It has afforded immediate relief iu many cases of Prolap sus uteri, aud Piles are relieved as if by magic. A gentleman from N. C. came here with his family to have his eyes operated on, having nearly lost them from Neuralgia and Rheumatic affoctious, lias been so relieved as to defer the operatian, iu tho cunildent belief that my Oil will restore him. It lias afforded most unexpected relief in tlie breast and side, atteuded witli cough aud sore throat, aud it at once relieves the worst kinds of ruuning sores, felons, and all painful affections; >t thoroughly aud promptly cures Rheumatism. John Wyeth, Esq., the well known druggist of Harrisburg, writes, Juue 6th, “that Mr. Forbes of that place, who had sulfered great pains about his loius and on one side about the hip, after using I)r. Jayne’s remedy a week, then had the aid of a pby sicitn some time, who bled him, 4c., was effectually cured with one bottle of my Off.” We want you to come, let us examine your case; do hst be dis heartened, :wc make uo false promises, we are a regular physician, and, moreover, you do nothnve to pay a long time for medical advico aud then be told you can not he helped.

Brngg'a Arctic Liniment.— Among all the medical discoveries aud inventions of the pres out age, noue appear to have met with the same triumphant success as Dr. Bkaou’s Arctic Lisi mint. This extraordinary medicine meets the wants of the public in the cure of such a large class of diseases that its value cauoot be over estimated. Iu all cases of rheumatism, neuralgia, ear ache, tooth ache, and all diseases affectiug the nerves, its oporatlou is miraculous. It is also in fallible iu curing all eruptive diseases of the skin, such ns erysipelas, scald head, tetter, ring-worm, etc., etc., and instantly extracts tlie fire from burns and scalds. Sprains and bruises it cures in a very short time, causing the coagulated lymph to be scattered and driven off. It likewise cures nearly all diseases of horses and cattle. The worst cases of spavin, ring-bone, pole-evil, spring-bait, 4c., yield at once to its curative properties. For sale in Columbus, Georgia, by DAXFORTU, NAGEL 4 CO.

The PER FORMING ELEPHANTS, Antony and Cleopatra, are the same which, for mouths, created the great est furore in Loudon and Paris, while more re cently their performances were the theme of uni versal admiration for months, at tho Broadway Theatre, New York. Their wonderful docility, and the perfection of their training, make them tlie most interesting specimens of the animal creation that the world has ever seen. All their faculties have been developed to tho greatest extent, and they stand forth aai gtneris, 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 complishod acrobats. In addition, Bailey & Co.’s Circus and Menagerie comprises a splendid collection of WILD A.nSTII^dIA.LS. The troupe of Riders, Vaulters, Lady Equestri ennes, Ac., is the largest aud most thoroughly artistic now traveling. The Clowns are the very embodiment of fun aud jocularity. Their jokes are humorous, frosh, spicy and piquant, full of hits at the times and follies of the day, yet entirely free from anything which tho most delicately constituted mind could take the slightest exception to.
