COLUMBUS:
Largest City and Country Circulation
Tuesday Morning, Hot. HI, 1860.
Capt. Benj. Gardner, of tho Quitman
Guards, Troy Ala., recently addressed a
letter to Got. Moore of that State, ex
pressing opposition to separate State se
cession, but that he stands subject to his
call in any event. •
Acquittal,
We understand, says tho Tbomasvilla
Reporter, that Thomas F. Drew, who
killed W. L. Tooke, in Madison county,
Florida, was tried last week for the of
fence, and returned by the jury “not
guilty.”
Census of Augusta.
S. N. Jackson, Assistant United States
Marshal, has furnished the Augusta
Chrouicle with a census of the city of
Augusta, including the Distriots, by
which it appears there are 10,401 whites
and 8,888 blaoks.
Proclamation of Gov. Brown.
The Legislature having passed the Con
vention Bill, Goj. Brown has issued his
proclamation in couformity with the re
quirements of the Aot, ordering an elec
tion for delegates to said Convention and
requiring of those elected to meet at the
Capitol on the 10th of January, 1861, to
oonsider the mode, moasure, and time of
resistance.
January Elections,
On Saturday, the House of Representa
tives passed the bill whioh originated in
the Senate to amend the Act of Dec. 16th,
1859, so as to change the election of Jud
ges of the Superior Court, Attorneys and
Solicitor Generals, and county officers
from the first Monday in January to the
first Wednesday in January, exeept as to
Ordinaries.
Merino Sheep.
We notioed, on Saturday last, in the
stable lot of Messrs. Harris & I’ridgeon,
a small flook of rery fine merino sheep,
the larger portion of wbioh were lambs.
We understand they are for sale. This
is an excellent opportunity for those of
our planting friends who desire to add
sheep raising to their other interests, to
obtain good stool to begin with. We
would adrise all lorcrs of fine stock to go
and sec them.
Fire at Station Three.
Thursday morning, about 2 o’cloob,
aays the Tallahassee Floridian, Ladd’s
store at Station 3, on the Peneaoola and
Georgia Rail Road, was discovered to be
on fire. The fire had so far progressed be
forealarm was given that it was impossible
to arrest the flames, and the building and
contents were entirely consumed. Lobs
supposed to about §9,ooo—insurance
6,000.
Attempt to Fire a Ciln House.
On last Saturday or Saturday night,
says the Tallahassee Floridian, of tho
24th, an attempt was made to burn the
gin house of Mr .Wm. Q. Tondcr, in Leon
county, near Lake Miccosukio. On Mon
day morning Mr. Bourtuey, the overseer,
discovered that a lighted torch had been
put under the door of the gin house, but
fortunately the cotton which had been
put in on Saturday was wet from a heavy
rain which had fallen that day, and would
not burn,
Unfortunate Occurrence.
On the night of the 10th inst., says
the Fernandina East Floridian, three free
negro sailors, who constructed a portion
of the crew of the brig Wingold, Capt.
Loring, and who were confined in the
jail of this place, were removed and havo
not since been heard of. Six froe negro
seamen were forcibly taken on tho night
of the 17th from the bark N. IV. Bridge,
Capt. Lang, now lying in the Sound, off
Cumberland Island.
Tile Poor in New York.
“rink,” the New York correspondent
of tho Charleston Courier, the 2lßt inst.,
says : It is estimated that of the twenty
five thousand persons who havo been dis
charged from labor in this city since tho
eleolion, fifteen thousand havo been fe
males. The benevolent societies will have
to tax their energies to tho utmost this
winter, to save from starvation and mis
ery the thousands who will be deprived
of the means of subsistence in conse
quenoe of the election of Lincoln.
Reduction of the Legislature.
The bill for the cell of a Convention of
the people to reduce the number of mem
bers of the General Assembly, was voted
down in the lloueo of Representatives
Saturday, by a decisive vote.
The Judioiary Committee reported a
substitute for the original bill, which
proposed to empower the Convention
which assembles in January uext to set
tle the question. The vote on the origi
nal bill shows, of ooorse, that this sub
stitule was previously rejected. We are
of opinion that the January Convention,
though oalled for a different purpose, will
have full power to oorreot the evil. So
desirable is the reduotion of the Legisla
ture, and ee unequal and unfair is the
present arrangement, that a Convention
for that speoial purpose should be oalled.
The people properly informed on the sub
ject would doubtless ratify the move
ment
o
Grand Jury of Burke on Secession.
In the general presentments of the
Grand Jury of Burke county recently in
session, we extract the following:
In noticing the Executive’s Special Mes
sage to our Legislature, we endorse that
portion of tbe same reoommending the
Legislature to appropriate sufficient
means for placing the State in a condition
for defence and fully approve of the
course of the Legislature in voting the
Executive the money. And we hope the
day is not far distant when uot only
Georgia, but all her sister States, whoso
interests are identified with her’s will
meet in convention, and declare them
selves free from all further Northern
Aggression, and let our motto be, “Since
Equal Rights are denied us in the Union,
we declare our Independence out of it.”
Klghty Horses Roasted Alive.
On Sunday evening recently, the sta
bles of C. Lent’s Red Bird line of omni
busses, corner of thirty-second street and
tenth avenue, New York, caught fire from
the carelessness of one of the Btable men
who went into the bay loft with a lighted
candle, and before the flames could be
extinguished, tbe entire stablee were des
troyed, together with eighty out of one
hundred end twenty-one hones.
To Hancock and all Co-operatldny
lata. A/’
Eds. Sun ;—Does the honor and safety
of the South demand secession? If so,
she ought to secede. Who Is te deter
mine this fact ? Each sovereign State
alone has the right to do so for itself,
but not for another. Therefore on each
State devolves the responsibility of ac
tion in the premises. Georgia can act
for Georgia alone. She may counsel with
any and all the slave or cotton States,
and add to her council her action or ex
ample, but so far as they ore concerned,
she can go no farther.
Let each State exercise a generous
confidence in her sister States, but in a
matter involving honor and safety, let
no State determine its action by that of
any other.
Suppose one of the eight cotton States
should refuse to act, shall the same,
therefore, submit to dishonor and ruin?
Or shall one of the fifteen slave States
(Missouri for instanoe) shall the fourteen
submit to Lincoln's rule ?
If the cause is adequate to so violent
a remedy as secession, then each State
must act for itself and determine whether
she will yield to the pressure of the
oause or not. In a matter of smaller
moment, delay for 00-operation weuld be
justifiable. South Carolina, Florida,
Alabama, Mississippi, Texas, wo can not
doubt; nor does the writer doubt Geor
gia and North Carolina ?
The spontaneons notion of the South
ern heart and mind, when uncorrupted
when it has spoken, is for seeeesion; I
am willing to trust this action. 1 would
take the rote of erery Southern State to
day before speakers and writers have an
opportnnity to arrest the natural impulse
of the people, and abide their deoiaion.
STATE SOVEREIGNTY.
Glennvillk, Ala. Nov. 24. 1800.
Ede. Sun :—A writer in your paper of
to day, over the signature of “ Harbour,”
represents that many of our people are
pleased with the programme, suggested
in your paper of the 21st iLst., by “John
Hancock,” and others are in favor of Gov.
Fitzpatrick’s plan, both of which, 1 un
derstand to oppose separate State seces
sion, and favor co-operation, which I re
gard as tantamount to right down sub
mission.
Your correspondent will pardon me for
stating that he evidently does not under
stand the feelings of our people. We have
had three large meetings of men of all par
tics in the county, and the only ones that
has been held, in which resolutions were
adopted, without a dissenting voice, in favor
of immediate, separate, Stale secession. And
tho ono at Clayton on Monday last, the
largest meeting that ever assembled in
the county, nominated for delegates to the
State Convention, three distinguished
gentlemen, who are kuown to favor the
immediate withdrawal of Alabama from
the Union. There will be no opposition
to this ticket, aud if there was, I hon
estiy believe (aud 1 am not without the
means of information) that out of about
2,800 votes, there would be a majority of
2,600 in favor of.
SECESSION STRAIGHT.
The Abolition Raid.
Kansas City, Not. 22.—Dr. Massey, of
Fort Scott, arrived here this evoning.
lie left Fort Soott on Tuesday last. The
rumor of the burning of the town on
Monday laßt was untrue. lie confirms
the account of the murder of five men,
and the capture of others who have
probably met the same fate. Montgom
ery’s men are well armed with Sharp’s
rifles and navy revolvers. They have
plundered the town ofl’aris and arrested
many of the oitizons. The people have
petitioned tho Secretary of the Territory,
in the absence of Gov. Medary, to como
to their assistance with Federal troops.
Leavenworth, Nov. 22.—1n view of
the present state of affairs in Southern
Kansas, a call has been issued for a
public meeting to sustain Gov. Medary
in enforcing law aud order in the Terri
tory. Tho oall is signed by a number of
prominent citizens who have hitherto
acted with the Free State aud Republican
party.
Warsaw, Mo., Nov. 22.—A mass meet
ing was held here to-day, for the purpose
of organizing a military company to aid
the border settlers. Haud-bills[|are cir
culating throughout the country calling
on the oitizens to rise en masse, to prepare
to defend their homes from invasion by
Montgomery’s band. Montgomery de
clares that he means to carry on the war
until he frees every negro iD southwestern
Missouri. Largo quantities of guus, re
volvers, and other implements, have been
shipped to Kansas for the sufferers.
Warsaw, Nov. 23.—The inhabitants of
the vioiuity of Oceola are under great ex
citement, apprehending an attack from
Montgomery. It is said that a portion
of bis band is at Ball’s mills, 25 miles
distant.

Vicksburg, Nov. 20. —We are called
upon to record a Bad disaster to the line
passenger steamer Belfast, while ou a

Tompkin’e Bend, sixty miles above Vicks
burg, last night, nnd sank in thirteen
feet of water.
It is thought that the boat oan be saved.
Ilcr cargo of cotton is considerably dam
aged by water. Fortunately, there wore
no lives lost.
The Boston Money market.
Boston, Nov. 22. —N0 serious results
have as yet attended the finanoial pres
sure, and remittances from the hottest
points of the South oontinuo to come in
as usual. The statements of repudia
tion by Southern creditors, so far as this
oily is ooncerned, is untrue. Should
the emergency require it, the Directors
of all the Boston Banks propose to dis
count to the amount of five million of dol
lars, which will Bpeedily make money
easy in this city.
Call for a State Convention.
Columbus, 0., Nov. 22. —The Daily

Extensive Purchase of Vr Uni/.
Hons for the South. ‘ —
\ esterday there arrived by the steam
er City of Hartford, from Hartford, one
hundred and eighty cases of Sharpe’s
carbines, containing ten pieces each,
making in all, arms for one thousand
eight hundred men, and forty cases of
conical balls, each containing one thou
sand bullets, or forty thousand cartridges
in the aggregate. These arms and am
munition were ordered by telegraph from
the Governor of Georgia, and will be sent
to Savannah by the next steamer. The
same faotory has also received orders
from Alabama for one thousand staud of
the same death dealing weapons.
Cooper & Pond, of this city, receive
from twenty to fifty orders daily from
South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia—
and people who suppose that the South
is not a paying customer, may be aston
ished to know that their business trans
actions in this line are strictly on a cash
basis. Cash within thirty days is their
invariable rule. Most of the orders are
for rifles and navy revolvers, though
Cooper & Pond supply an immense num
ber of flint lock mußkets. They lately
sent twenty gun carriages to Georgia,
and have done a brisk businessin all kinds
of small arms and ammunition with nil
the principal southern States.
Another large house in this city has
filled orders for about five thousand stand
of muskets of the United States pattern,
and has sold large quantities of artillery
swords and army pistols. Its orders
oome from all the southern States; but
mainly from those in which secession is
regarded as the only remedy for southern
grievances. A third extensive establish
ment has supplied an immense number of
Colt’s revolvers and rifles to Georgia,
principally to Columbus. All the whole
sale houses and agencies in the city have
been hard prossed to supply the orders
for every imaginable species of weapon.
To the above list may be added Ames’
Manufacturing Company, which has fur
nished Georgia with cannon and with
three hundred artillery swords, and has
done a large miscellaneous business with
all the aggrieved States.
South Cnrolina is tho only southern
State which has an armory of her own.—
It has been in operation some years, and
turns out good work, though at a cost
not less, probably, than that of the class
of arms in the North.
Muspenslon of Debts
The bill to grant, relief to the banks
and people of this State passed the Senate
yesterday by a vote of 92 to 15. Its pro
visions are—
1. Repeals so much of the act of 1857
as forbids the banks of this State from
sending thoir notes out of the Stato for
the purpose of discounting drafts.
2. Repeals so much of said act as pre
vents the banks from selling any but sight
checks.
8. Suspends the operation of all acts
inflicting pains and forfeitures on the
banks and their notes.
4. Prohibits the levying of any ft fa in
favor of tho suspended banks during such
suspension, and of any fi fa against the
banks during the time their debtors are
thus protected, provided that the defen
dant in either case shall give security as
is now required for the stay of execution.
5. No plaintiff in fi fa shall have the
same levied upon the property of any in
habitant of this State, except upon affida
vit that the defendant is about to remove
his property beyond the limits of this
State, or of any county thereof.—Milledye

Manufacturer’? Bank.
We learn from the Cashier that this
Hank has redcomod more than SIOO,OOO
of its bills within the last two weeks, and
at the same time has paid o'if nearly its
entire deposit account, ammountiog to
full SIOO,OOO more; thereby paying and
taking within that short time more than
one half of the liabilities of the Bank.—
Its circulation is now only about $160,-
000, which is expected to come in and be
taken up in the collection of debts due
the Bank during the present winter.
This Bank has always done its full
share towards accommodation the busi
ness of the place, but the extraordinary
state of atfairs now existing, and the al
most total inability to collect its debts, or
roalize upon its assets at this time has
rendered a suspension necessary. The
officers think they can pay the circulatian
and debts of the Bank, and also pay back
to the stockholders part for ther stock.
Our own confidence in the solvency of the

The New Oregon Senator.
Mr. E. D. Baker, the newly elected
Senator in Congress, from Oregon, made
a violent Republican speech, at the
theatre in San Francisoo, a few days be
fore the Presidential election. It avow
ed and justified Mr. Seward’s whole doo
trine of the “irrepressible conflict.” His
style of defending this dogma was of the
highest flavor of the Helper book. He
was jubilant in his anticipations of the
extinction of slavery, and was cheered
by his audience when he proclaimed to
them “you, to save your souls, can’t help
saying hurrah for the weaker party.”—
He wound up that part with explicit
avowal:
I would shoulder my rifle to suppress
insurrection ; and yet in my own impul
ses, in the depth of my own reflection, I
feel that if Mr. Reward, looking forward
with tho eye of a great statesman and
philosopher, said the conflict was irre
pressible—God go with him ! I endorse
the sentiment.
Whereupon the report says there were
“tremendous cheers,” after he proceeded,
in a Garrisonian strain, to anticipate the
triumph of universal freedom, “resplen
dent in oomplele steel, and brandishing
in her right hand a flaming sword, red
with insuppressihle light.”
Theso be the “moderate” Republicans!

Florida Lrglalature.
By Florida papers we learn that the
Legislature of that State convened yes
terday. Gov. I‘jrry is decidedly for

that Florida will follow South Carolina
out of the Union.
