COLUMBUS: Largest City and Country Circulation. Monday Morning, Jan. 31, 1850. Sco reading matter on every page. Gen. Thomas Flournoy, an old and es teemed citizen of Harbour county, Ala., died at his residence in i'lufaula, on .Sat urday last, of congestive chills. The stables of Fletcher & Kcag, in Memphis, Tenn., wore burnt last Monday night, together with five otnnibusos and other vehicles, and fifteen houses. A small brick house adjoining, containing a quautity of hides, was also burnt. ——- The Gtand Jury of Montgomery coun ty, Alabama, havo found true bills against McManus, for tho killing of Dillard in that county last week, and O’Connor, for the murder of Kouso, in the city of Mont gomery, about ten days ago. O’Connor is at large, never having boen arrested. We learn from the Covington (da.) Times that tho barn and stables of Mr. Robert M. Rakestraw, six miles from t hat village, together with his entire crop of corn and fodder, was consumed by fire on the morning of the 19th inst. Tho fire was fortunately discovered in time to save the horses which were in tho stable at the time. Louisiana Senator. Wc learn from a dispatch in tho Mobile papers, that .Senator Rcnjainin received the nomination by tho Democratic caucus when it ro-assembled on Monday, (Gray’s friends having withdrawn from the cau cus,) and was re-elected by the Legisla ture on Tuesday, for six years from the 4th of March next. Tho voto stood 57 for Benjamin, and 55 for Gray. Both Demo crats. The tine dwelling of Mr. Chas. McCul loch, in Columbia, S. C., with its con tents, was entirely destroyed by fire on Wednesday night last. The firo was dis covered about midnight, and it is said the family barely escaped with their lives, having to pas out through tiro and smoke. From the location of tho fired points, it is evident it was tho work of an incendi ary. There was nil insurance on the house and furniture of $5,000, which it is said, does not near cover the loss. If you want to advertise, do it in the daily papers. They uro far more valua ble than all other mediums. Circulars, and indeed all other means of calling the attention of the public to your business, are inferior to regular and judiciously varied notices in tho daily press, because they are either received and destroyed as waste paper, or they are accompanied by matter of such slight interest as to fail to attract eager, frequent or timoly atten tion. Advertise in the daily papers—the cheaper the paper, the larger aud more varied circulation you arc sure to have. The Vicksburg Whig calls upon the “minority party” in Mississippi, whatev er that may be, to make a fight. It calls upon the Opposition to the Administration to follow in Southern latitudes the exam ple of the Democrats in Vermont—run candidates at all points and at every elec tion. Fight, first, last and nil tho time. For what will they fight '! for the spoils, of course. Then, since the ins have their pouches pretty well filled, as a moasuro of economy, the country would do well to keep them in, as the outs—being very hungry—would soon devour the entire carcase, tail, hair, horns, and hoofs.— Patriots are always in the minority. —♦ Montgomery and Union Springs. The Montgomery Mail, after copying the notice from tho Union Springs Gazette of tho survey progressing from Mont gomery, says “the line in its entire length is thirty-eight mile:, and the grades are very favorable. The road can bo built tor as little per mile as any road iu the Southern country. A liberal subscription along the line will make a road of it in eighteen months. Mr. Gray reports the spirit among the planters as most en couraging.” ♦ Motiile nnd Northern Hoad. Thu question of entering on the work of building a Kail Road connecting that city witli the Montgomery and Pensacola road, lias for some timo been agitated iu Mobile. Tho last Mobile papers contain u message from tho Mayor to tho City Council, in which ho urges some action by that body on tho subject. He pro poses the renewal ol’ tho city subscription of one million dollars, authorized by the Legislature to bo made to tho Girard road, and the issuance of bonds to that amount, having twenty-live years to run, to forward the enterprise. To render them certainly negotiable, ho suggests tbo k'lj vr • .*••* IUA, mill tu I'AUTG thirty-five hundredths of ouo per cent, per annum, for tho payment of tho inter est until, by tho completion of tho road, its earnings may bo made available for that purpose. 1 ■>format Inn Wanted. Tho Cincinnati Commercial of tho 22d instant, states that Richard G. Phillips, who arrived at New Orleans on the 28d of December last, from California, ou tho Quaker City, en route for Cincinnati, where his family reside, has not been heard from since that timo, by his friends. He had been absent in California seven years, and was returning home with the goldeu fruit of his labors. It is feared he has been foully dealt with. Tho Com mercial says he was six feet two inches in Ueight, of dark complexion, aud about forty two years old. His friends will thankfully receive any information con cerning him. Address 11. C. Phillips, Civil Engineer, Cincinnati, Ohio. Mr. Phillip Jesße, aged 120 years, died in New Garden, Russell county, Va., on tho Ist of December. It is stated that a I short time before his death he was able to attend to liis own household affairs, uud that while in liis hundredth year he cut and split oue hundred rails. The haUrange It. It. Connection. Tho last Enquirer contains an article in advocacy of tho construction of tho above road, and gives the following rea sons why it should be built : We are, on further reflection, tho more convinced of the importance of this con nection to Columbus. What our city still lacks is direct and cheap communication with the stock and grain producing re gions of the up-country. We need cheap er bacon and wheat especially, aud this route would afford the choicest und cheap est means of procuring such articles direct from tho packing houses and granaries. Then tho iron interest of this city is al ready respectable and growing, and what ever reduces the cost of transportation of tho raw material helps to foster the man ufacture hero. Another trade to be built up by a direct Rail Road to Northern Georgia is, as we have heretofore sug gested, the coal trade. Not ouly would cheap coal delivered here be a great con venience to our foundries and other work shops, and lessen the high price of gas, but wo begin to need tbo articlo for furl, and this necessity will increase and grow every yonr. Coal can not now be deliver ed here at prices admitting of its exten sive use, because of tho cireuitdus route by which it has to bo transported and tho necessary breakago of bulk at West Point. Rut let a car loaded with coal iu Chero kee Georgia be dispatched through to this city on a direct route and without any breakage, and more than one-half the freight is saved. The same change in tho mode of transportation will also material ly affect the price of many other articles of up-country production, but perhaps not to the same extent. Why build forty-five miles of Hoad to accomplish tho Enquirer’s enumerated objects, when tho facilities desired can he procured by the building twenty-two miles of road over a more favorable coun try for cheap rail road building, and which can he built and put to running at less than one-third the cost? Tlic contemplated road, of which we spoke recently, from the thirty-five mile station on the Musco gee Road, to Thomaston, is only twenty two miles in length, and has boen esti mated by competent engineers who have reviewed the route, not to cost over $9,000 per mile to make it ready for the trains. As this would be the extension of a road already in operation, it will require but little, if any addition to its running stock. While this road would give all the transportation facilities our cily could derive from the LaGrango road; it would give to tho Muscogee road the entire Ten nessee freight which would come through in unbroken bulk. This, to our ideas of economy, and of fostering care for exist ing works, is an item well worth consider ing- As to the advantages to be derived from the country penetrated, in the way of trade to our city, we consider the trade of the country penetrated by the Thomas ton road, a more than full equivalent to that which is lost for the want of the La- Grange road. And as to the trade of Harris, over which the friends of the LaGraugo road harp so much, it is already secured to Columbus by an impregnable barrier; aud should the road ever bo built, it is doubtful whether (tho distance being so short) ono-half of tho Cotton on the line of Hie roail would come over it. The Thomaston road will be built with in tho next two or tlireo years. Further by the Arabia. iu the Liverpool cotton market during the week tho sales reached 40,000 bales, of which speculators took 1,000 aud ex porters 4,600 bales.

Prince Napoleon had gone to Turin to marry the King of Sardinia’s daughter. His visit there is calculated to produce a great demonstration. Arrival of the Steamship Illinois. New York, Jan. 28. —Tbo steamship Illinois has arrived from Aspinwall, with dates from that port to the 19th inst.— She brings the California mails, and one million two hundred thousand dollars in treasure. Her Pacific news is generally anticipated. Iu California business was dull, but tho miniug news was favorable. The Costa Rican Congress has ratified the Belly treaty, after slightly modifying it. Another revolution was in progress in Chili; but the position of the revolution- ‘ ists was not fully developed. Consular Bill Keconshlrrrd. A dispatch from Washington states that iu the House on Friday, the tnotiou to rccon-ider the Consular and Diplomatic bill was carried by a vote of 101 to 98. j The African Slave Trade. We take tho following extract from an elaborate treatise on the African Slave Trade, from the pen of Robert G. Harper, of this State. Tho whole article abounds in unanswerable argument against the policy of tho revival of the traffic: Labor is like other valuable things in respect to its being cheap or high in price. It is influenced by supply and demand. — j If a country is so densely populated that , there is a superabundant supply ol labor, | the consequence is, it becomes cheap. If the laborers are comparatively few, the price of labor will he high. The demand for labor in tho .South is great, and con sequently the price is high. But why is the demand great ? Because the produc tiveness of labor is great. It is not be cause we are suffering for want of negro labor that it is high. It is because negro labor is productive of high profits. It is really an evidence of our prosperity. It is anything but an evil to complain of. And hero is the great mistake that is made by the advocates of this policy, on this point. They set out by assuming that the high price of negroes is a great calamity to be cured and remedied.— They clamor for cheap labor and cheap negroes. They may as well cry out against tho high price of cotton and sugar and rice. They may as well take the ground that the land in the country is too high, and that a general decline in prices of all property is a great desideratum to ho attained. The price of negroes is at an equilibrium with the price of every thing else in the South. To bring down negroes, is to briug down cotton aud land. The prices of all these go together. When cotton is low, negroes and land go low, and every interest in tho South suffers depression in a corresponding manner. But when cotton is high, land and negroes are high, and the business of tho country in all its branches flourishes It is anew idea to me, to bo crying out against our very posterity. Reduce ne gro labor—reduce its productiveness, which is the only way you can reduce its pl-ice—-and you bring upon us universal stagnation. And when you reduce the price of the negro, you not only affect it, by reducing his productive value, but at tlie same time you bring reduction upon everything else : and it reaches in its de pressing effects and sympathies the wages of the labor of the non-slavtholding in habitants, thereby involving in the ruin ous result all interests and all classes.— The time of distress arc when prices are low ; when negroes bring but half-price, and land and every other species of prop erty is low in a corresponding degree. It is then that all classes suffer, except those whoso business floureshes upon the mis fortunes of the people. When was this discovery made, that low prices and cheap labor were tho harbingers of prosperity ? Even in the North, where labor is free, it is anything else but an evidence of the prosperity of the country, that the wages of labor are low. And yet, that condi tion of cheap labor and low wages, which is the result of the disproportion of labor and capital, owing to the great density of their population, is actually presented as a proof of prosperity by the advocates of the African Slave Trade. We will further remark that if the croakers for more and cheaper Slave la bor will he patient hut a few years they’ will have it to their hearts’ content. The great transfer of Slaves going on from the almost non-cotton raising States of Ma ryland, Virginia and North Carolinia, to say nothing of those from South Carolinia and Georgia, to the more productive soils of the Mississippi bottoms, Arkansas, Louisana aud Texas, will in a few years produce such an over supply of cotton as to place the price of that article at a point which will sufficiently reduce the price of Slavo labor to satisfy even tho most enor mous gluttons for low prices. In Geor gia and South Carolinia, four hags to the hand is fully up to the average, whilst in the country to which this labor is being transferred, eight bales to the hand is below the average. The above suggested exchange of labor, assisted by one or two productive cotton years, will, we predict, fully satisfy the most inveterate croaker as to the imaginary demand for labor in the production of cotton. Seven cents per pound will quiet them. WANTED, OCCU 1’ANTS for two comfortable Rooms at Mrß. KIRVIN’S Boarding House, near tho Presby terian Church.
