COLUMBUS: Largest City and Country Circulation. Saturday Morning) April 30, 185 V. The Texan says that 1,400 bales of cotton had been shipped from San Anto nio to Mexico, and sold for from 19 to 22 cts. per pound. The Boston Courier announces that Mr. Geo. Ticknor is preparing a life of Prescott, a work in which he will have the assistance of the eldest son of the histo rian, Mr. Win. Trescott. Among those reported lost or killed, by the explosion of tho steamer St. Nicholas, wo notice tho names of Mr. and Mrs. Crisp. Whether those are the well known theatrical personages of that name or not we have not learned; but tlioro is reason to believe they arc, as it is raid thoy were contemplating n professional tour West about tho time this accident hap pened. We clip the following news items from the Brunswick Herald of the 27th : Haii,.—We had a hail storm here on Friday night. Tho cold weather in this viciniiy lust week damaged cotton and Corn in some localities. Mail Bust.— We learn tliut the mail carrier, in attempting to cross Big Crook on Saturday night lust, in conscquenco of the failure of the horse to swim, tho bug gy was washed down tho river, and tho western mail lost. Tlit Holly Canal Kalci-prlsc In Nic aragua* It scarcely admits of a doubt, says the Charleston Nows, that the enterprise of M. Belly, in Nicaragua, meets with the private encouragement of the French Emperor. It is said that a powerful op position has been formed against it there, on account of tho magnitude of tho privi leges accorded. A correspondent of n Now York paper writes as follows from Washington, in relation to the matter : “Three hundred engineers, surveyors, and other assistants, aro expected on tho Isthmus, connectod with M. Belly’s party. There is a party in the country which denounces them as French filibusters. It is almost certain that tho Canal project will fall to tho ground, from tho magni tude of tho work, tho difficulty of proeur ug labor, and tho enormous estimated expenditure. Thu least estimate of tho cost is $10,000,000. I have soon u pri vate letter from a gentleman now rosident m Central America, and who has been ‘■ngaged in similar works for twenty-five .years, stating that engineers who have surveyed M. Belly’s routo havo given heir opinion that the work, upon tho cheapest plan consistent with efficiency, will absorb tho labor of twenty thousand men ten years, that is to say that it will cost, for labor alone, something over ¥00,000,000.” Signs of tlte Times. It is unusual for public men of tho -outh, in tho Light of their fame and in llucuco, to persist in retiring from ser vice. But now, this singular spectacle is sSown in several instances. Mr. Sto j hens, of Georgia, peremptorily with draws. There is a smash up coming, ho m said to have remarked, and it is time m get otr tho train. George IV. Jones, of Teunessee, takes a similar course. Thfc s une is truo of Mr. Dowdell, of Alabama. Not least, Mr. Orr, of South Carolina, I ite Speaker of tho House, lias likowise infused a ro-election, and gone into vol untary retirement. Wo have boforo men tioned tho opinion of Douglas, as to com ing events, and the following, from the Washington correspondent of tho New York Express, shows that Mr. Orr has just tho same presentiment. After the adjournment of tho last Con gress, tho Speaker, Mr. Orr, of South t'arolina, was requested by a friend to give him his views on tho politioal future, ‘lr. Orr replied, without hesitation—“ln my opinion, tho Opposition will organizo the next llouso of Representatives, and, ■ f they select a conservative, national candidate, will also elect the next Presi dent.” —- Kail Itoml Meeting at Opelika.

Our Delegates, however, have come home much elated with the prospects of our Bead: all seem to think that tho ltoad will bo built beyond a doubt.

Very grave and iiuportnut questions, touching the interests of Cotton Planters, will come before the Convention for dis cussion ; it is iiuportaut, therefore, that each Cotton growing county in the State should bo represented. Finch county’ is entitled to three votes, but is not restrict ed as to the number of Delegates. Each couuty may send as many delegates as it may deem proper. At this meeting the election of officers takes place. Howkll Conti, Prei’t. Perry, April 26, 1859. - ... -- Manufacturing at the South. A steam fire engiuo is in course of con struction at Charleston. We regard this as a favorable sign of tho times ns con cerns our friends of the South. Hereto fore they have not sufficiently taxed their ingenuity and developed their resources. Let them pay somo attention to manufac tures and less to politics, and tho results must prova of tho most beneficial charac ter. Wo notice with pleasure that a cot ton mill is about to be put in operation at McMiuville, Tenu. Sectionalism will soon die wheu men learu the principles of public economy by practically testing them. Let the South spur industry and enterprise by her capital. Good results will follow for the wholo country. I'hila• delp/ua Inquirer. Wo are pained to learn thardispatohes have been received by Gen.“ Pillow, at Columbia, informing him that his sou | Gideon, is among the missing of the pas- ; sengers of the ill-fated St. Nicholas, lie passed through this city on Saturday last, j on his way to the General’s plantation in j Arkansas, lie was lost seen at or near the Pilot House, and the dispatches re ceived by Gen. Pillow leave littlo or no hope that his son is alive.— Nash. Amer. Laws for the African Slave Trade. Tho United States District Court for the Mobile District, Judgo John A. Campbell \ presiding, commenced its Spring Term on ; the 11th inst. The Judge’s charge to the j Grand Jury, which appeared in the Mo- j bile papers last week, is lengthy, and is j an able and lucid exposition of tbo law. j A considerable portion is devoted to tho j exposition of the laws on the subject of ! the African Slave Trade. The document is too long for our space. Tho following abstract, however, which we copy from tho New Orleans Picayune, gives the substance : The crime of “piracy” is next defined, ns a crimo against tho law of nations, which has disappeared from tho high seas, but the definition is applied to ex plain the municipal crime created by statute, in making the African slave trade piracy by our own laws. Tho char acteristics of that offence aro said to be t!;° Heme that of piracy, and tbo au thority of national legislation to'dcnounoo it as such is fully asserted. Next comes the Judge’s description of the moral enormity of the offenco and the provis ions by law against the actors therein. — The act is pronounced an “act of rob bery,” and scarcely a voyage is mado in which “murder” is not committed. For the immediate agents and instruments of this infamous trado, tho act of Congress (May, 1820,) provides that tho penalty of death, as for piratis, shall apply to every American citizen belonging to any vessel “who shall land from such a vessel and forcibly seize or decoy, or bring or carry away from any foreign shore, or who forcibly dotains or confinos in any such vessel any negro or mulatto who is not a slave under the laws of any of tho States, or who attempts to sell at sea .such a person as a slave, or lands him from the sea, or tranters him to another vessel to he lunded and disposed of as ft slave.” But not only the actual perpetrators of tho crimo alone, aro included in these liabilities to law. Those who on land speculate in tho trade aro also criminal, and tho laws havo penalties for them also; no citizen of the United States, as owner, master, factor, can build, equip, fit, load, or othorwise prepare any ship or vossel, or engago one to sail from the United States for the purpose of engaging in this trade; nor can any citizon of the United States take ou board, receive, or transport from any of the coasts of Africa, or other foreign place or country, any negro, mulatto, or porson of color, not an inhabitant nor held to labor under tho laws of any of the States, for the purpose of holding, selling, or disposing of such a person as a slave. Tho ships so employed aro forfeited, and tho per sons concorncd in any of these acta arc exposed to fino and imprisonment. There is another class of offenders against the law to whom Judgo Campbell especially draws the attention of the Grand Jury. It consists of those who hold in custody and ovyiership, or sell, or dispose of Africans brought into the country in violation of these statutes. He shows that, by tho act of Congress, neither tho importers nor any person claiming under them lias any right or title, as property, to any negro, even for a moment. Every such holding is a false imprisonment, and tho law makes it a crime, with heavy penalties. Every per son “who shall hold, sell, or otherwiso dispose of such porson ao brought in as a slave, or bo aiding or abetting therein,” is liable for evory offenco to a fine that may reach ten thousand dollars, and an imprisonment that may reach soven years. The Judgo proceeds to charge that if a party of Africans newly imported should be fouud for an hour in any pait of the district, in tho custody, or under tho power of a master, or agent, or ovorscer, or factor, or broker, either to bo held, or to bo sold, or disposed of as slaves, the penalty would be incurred.” Ou an arrest, the burden is placed upon tho holder of such negro, to prove that tho negro has been more than five years within tho United States. In addition to the penalties imposed upon tho criminal holder, tho law gives a bouuty to tho party who shall givo tho information, anil Judgo Campboll adds that the District Court has tho power to take measures for securing the appearance and delivery of the negroes on trial. This couiplotos Judge Campbell’s expo sition of the slavo trade acts, which aro properly guides to the inquiries of the Grand Jury into imputed offences against thorn. It is followed by a historical re view of tho origin of those acts, and the uniform support they have received by men of all sections of the Union, and especially from leading statesmen of the South, with a repetition of the moral and political motives for enforcing them rigidly at this time. As they aro not parts of tho judicial or legal questions, we only note tho concluding passage, which is in tho following terms: “F'or more than fifty years has the pro hibition of the trade been absolute, and during that period all the indications were that nono would bo willing to take any step backward. I am sure that wheu tho proposition to ro-opeu the trade was submitted from some responsible source, that the whole country was astonished with a great astonishment. “1 am sure that the fraudulent and practical efforts that have boon made to inako slaves of Africans, in despite of tho treaties and laws of tho United States, can awaken uo other sentiments than those of indiguatiou and disgust, and prompt to no other resolutions than thoso that will aid to maintain tho supremacy of the laws, lu reference to tho attempts to violate them in this district, 1 invoke your activo and diligent efforts to bring the malefactors to justice.” ■” - * l iilou Springs ltall Hoad. Tho meeting of tho subscribers to tho stock of this road is to take place in this city on Monday next. Tho great advan tages that will nccruu to this oitv from the building of this road aro so manifest and so well understood, that it is useless to recapitulate them hero. It will run through ono of the richest planting sec- ; tions of tho State, and if tho settlers 1 along tho lino will corno forward and j subscribe in proportion to their ability to j do so, the work will bo easily completed within loss thau two years from this date. We hope our own citizens will come for ward on Monday, and put their shoulders maufully to tho wheel.— Montgomery Con federation. Restitution. The County Treasurer has received from Bishop Cross, of Alabama, the sum of $960, returned to tho public funds by someone who became, years ago, wrong fully possessed of them. The Bishop says it is useless to attempt to discover the .source from whence the money came. ; ! —llunUviUe (Ala.) Advocate. Arrival of the Steamship Africa. New York, April 28.— Tho steamship Africa, which left Liverpool on Saturday, tho 10th inst., arrivod hero to-day. Her commercial news has been anticipated by ! the Circassian, off Cape Race. I It was reported in Liverpool, nt the time tho Africa left, that the peace Con | gross would assemble on the 23d of April, at Carlsrube, a city of western Germany, i and tho capital of tho Grand Duoby of i Baden. The report appears to bo confirmed that Austria refuses to participate in a peace Congress, unless all tho powers disarm simultaneously. Tho London News says it is just as possible that tho proposed Congress will embitter tho relations of the contending parties, as it is that its deliberations will avert war. The Paris correspondent of the Herald says that he lias good reasons for believ ing that Austria’s proposals, as to points to ho submitted, will bo unacceptable to F'ranco. Tiie Paris Patrio says F'rance cannot bo expected to diminish her army, or re mand to the arsenals a single piece of its cannou. Many French naval officers have been ordered to join their ships forthwith. War materials are accumulating at Marseilles to an alarming extent. Five steam frigatos have gone to Alge ria for troops. The late interview with Lord Cowley ami Count Walcwski, it is believed, re sulted in serious differences of opinion, affecting tho amity between France and England. In the smaller German States warlike preparations arc going forward. The Bavarian army is placed on a war footing. It was reported that tho Pope would protest affainst the Congress. It was rumored that tho King of Naples was either dead or in a dying condition. Holland und Belgium were said to havo concluded a treaty for their mutual do fenso in case of war. Territorial News.

FOB MEDICINAL USE, HAS now taken that position in tho world’s estimation which justifies its Proprietor in claiming for it A Superiority Unrivaled! Produced, as it is, by a process known only to the manufacturer, and extracted from the choicest grain, which grows nowhere but in a favored lo cality in the Valley of the MonongaDela, and con taining uo particle of deleterious admixture; it has acquired a reputation for perfect purity and intrinsic excellence, bused solely upon its inherent merit, which tho proprietor does not intend, so long as he controls the manufacture, shall ever be forloited, or iu any manner allowed to impeach the correctness of tho statements of the learned and distinguished Chemists whose certificates we publish herewith, lie has heretofore refrained from making public, by advertisement, the EXTRAORDINARY MEDICINAL PROPERTIES which this article is known to possess; and this silence ou his part has been induced by a sensitive dread that tho slightest suspicion should connect his name witli advertising empiricism, and the nauseous jargon of quack-nostrum circulars. Rut, for some time past, the proprietor lias been in tho constant receipt of unsolicited testimonials from all parts of the country, emanating from PHYSICIANS OF THE HIGHEST REPUTATION, and testimonials which speak with bucli emphatic and unqualified approval of the uurivaled quali ties of the AROMATIC VALLEY WHISKY, AS A MEDICINAL AGENT, in ail cases in which artificial stimulation has be come requisite—in order to restore, repair or assist tho functions and energies of nature—that he deems it his duty, oven at the hazard of which he has spoken, to make known to the world, in the moat public manner possible, these extraordinary aod invaluable properties of tiiis article, of his manufacture. It is not his purpose to recite in detail, a list of those diseases of the human system which have been known to be most favorably affected by the use of this stimulant. They are particulnly de scribed iu the various testimonials spoken of, which are open nt all times to tho inspection of our friends, but which we do not feel at liberty, with out special permission of the distinguished persons who have sent them to us, to parade iu the public newspapers. Suffice it to say. that the diseases ullur'ed to, comprise all such as aro incident to Tropical Lati tudes, to a CHANGE OF CLIMATE OR DIET, or to any other cause which disarranges or impairs the operaut functions of the human system; in ducing languor, lassitude aud depression, and thu multitudinous ills flowing from this source In alt such cases the Aromatic Valley Whisky ACTS AS A RESTORATIVE, assisting tho natural organs, by n stimulant which both in character aud degree, seems to ho in all thiogs most admirably fitted to reinvigorato, aud to cull back that tone and force of action, in the vital organs, so essential to physical health. It is to this extent that the proprietor knows himself to be justified in claiming for his manu facture, Hygienic properties and virtues which cannot bo overstated, nor over-valued. Its univer sal uso by the MEDICAL PROFESSION is most urgently recommended. Already has it found its way into the principal public and private Hospituls in the country, and wherever it has been once used, it foithwith becomes a requisite. I have analyzed a sample of “ Daly’s AromaPc Valley Whiskey,” and find it to boa pure article, of flue flavor, and without any deleterious admix ture. JAMES 11. CIIILTON, M. D., New York. Chemist.
