COLUMBUS: Largest City and Country Circulation Mwturilay Morning, March 30, lhlil. The Newnan lJladc states that J. 1,. Calhoun has been appointed Quarter Master with the rank of Major in the Army of the Confederate States Ho is a nephew of John C. Calhoun. The Dadeville Manner says that Luke Davenport Esq , on Monday morning last killed the largest turkoy of the season. It weighed, “when dresaed, ill pounds. Us beard was sixteen inches long. Meat it who can. A dispatch from Richmond states there was considerable excitement thero on the 2<3th, in consequence of an order from Washington to send the guns on hand at llellona Foundry, to Fortress Monroe. —— Catholics and Israelite*. The Cincinnati Commercial says : The Hebrew organ and the Roman Catholic organ of this city are both frendly to the secession cause. The Israelite declares in its last number, “With every passing day we get more and more convinced that the secessionists are right,” and both journals have contained several elaborate defences of the principle of socessiou. The correspondent of the l'cnsacolu Observer reports a serious accident at the Forts to a soldier while on duty. He was leaning on his rifle, which was loaded, and in moving his foot it struck the trig ger causing the chargo to go off, shatter ing his arm so badly that it had to he amputated above the elbow He is a member of the Red Ragle Company, Capt. 11. L. Posey, which arrived a few days ago. - ♦ Mliort Ilviilc to Mriii|ihi*. The laying of the iron for the (rack of the Memphis and Clarksville Railroad was completed last week, us wo learn from the Nashville Union. Ity the way of the Kdgefleld and Kentucky Railroad this will open n new route—some fifty miles shorter than any now in use—to Memphis, New Orleans, 81. Louis, ko. — Regular through trains will shortly ho put on, we understand, making the trip to Memphis quicker by several hours than any other route. - ♦ Troop* for Pensacola. The Memphis Avalancho publishes a telegraphic dispatch received by Mr. Coleman of that city, on tho 20th. from Hernando, Mississippi, stating that six hundred troops would lenvo there the next day for Memphis, on their way to I’ensaoola. The Avalanche also stales that thirty young men of that city were to have left on the 20th witli the Irrepressibles of Hernando, having enlisted in the compa ny. They are commanded by Captain Chalmers. * —— W heat—Corn. We rejoico to learn from tho citizens of Troup county, says the La-grange Re porter, that the prospects for good wlioat crops were never more promising: and such is the news we seo from all parts of the oountry. Thore never was a time whon the people needed good harvests more than at present, if we mayjudgo from the amount of corn brought to our markots from the North-west. Our deal ers are constantly loading wagons with corn. Thcro novor has been more corn sold in Troup in one wiutor than has beon sold here the present season. ■ MW ■ Direct Trade. The Charleston Courier says that sev eral of the leading houses of that city are rnoviDg in the matter of obtaining their suppliee direct. One firm has already made arrangements for importing several cargoes of cotfeo from Rio Janeiro, for the summer and fall. Tho brig West In dian and schooner 11. P. Russell, are j loading for South America with rice and 1 lumber, and are expected to return to Charleston with from eight to ten thou- , sand bags of coffee for this firm. They are also arranging to establish a line of’ schooners for the West India trade. Kart Morgan. Yesterday wo published the names of the officers in command at Fort Morgan says the Mobile Tribnne, of the 27th.— D was oorrect at the time it was written ; | but it is not now, for Lieut. Col. Jones left the post last Monday, and came to the city. His place is now occupied by Col. Hardee. The appointment of Lieut. Col. Jones, in the first instance, was un derstood to be temporary. He is a skill ful officer and won the good opinion of all the garrison. For what service lie is to be selected we cannot say. The garrisou at Fort Morgan, we un derstand, is to be raised to a thousand men. At present we suppose there are at least seven or eight hundred already there, and we learn that they are rapidly being instructed in all the garrison du ties. From the Montgomery Advertiser. Appointment* of the Secretary of ttr* Treasury, The following appointments have been made by the Secretary of tho Treasury of the Confederate Btatcs: J. A. Williams, Collector, Stephenson, Mies. Thos. Bass, Collector, Athens, Ala. Walker A. Goodman, Collector, Holly Springs, Miss. L. L Jones, Collector, Hernando, Miss. Sam’l Bell, Collector, East Port, Miss. T. H. Shackelford, Collector, Atlanta, Ga Chas. I’. Polk, Collector, Corinth, Ala. W. T. Robinson, Collector, Chester, 8. C. W. T. Bartlett, Collector, Plorcuce, 8. C. Consulship* in the “ Upper Deep.” Senator Wade, in answer to an appli cant for a consulship, for which “nobody was asking,” said : “There is no such consulship on this planet. You may find it in some fixed star, not Vere” Cioitnuir of Alhm*. So many are the aspirants for the Gubernatorial Chair of Alabama, and so many have been brought forward by their respective frienJs for that position, that it will be rather a difficult matter to re concile so as to effect a choice of candi dates Another bone of contention which never fails to enter contests of this sort in that State, is the sectionul feeliug prevailing between North und South Ala baoia In the race about to commence, North Alabama contends that she is enti tled to tho candidate, and urges the claim of Robert Jemison, Jr., of Tuscaloosa. There is however, another gentleman who has long aspired to the position, and that is Hod. John E. Moore, of the same sec tion of the State. His friends, no less than those of Mr. Jemison’s, arc urgent in presenting his claims. In Middle and South Alabama there arc at least a dozen others all competent and whose claims are justly and warmly pressed. Old party lines having been obliterated in the State and the South, there is no necessity for a Convention ; and tho only alternative seems to boa free fight, oud let the people decide the matter at the ballot box. This in all probability will he the course determined on, us it seems to be the only way to afford general satisfaction. liiiallies* at Charleston The Mercury of the 20th says : The receipts of all kinds of merchandize usual ly bought at tho North, which have not been made “ free” uuder the adopted Tariff of ’57, have been very heavy. Tho supply of all the leading articles of the grocery trade is fully equal to the demand Tho supply of gunny bagging has beon increased by recent arrivals about 2,000 bales, and the stock in store in Charles ton is about 3,200 bales, or about one half the quantity required for our trade for the next crop. The stock imported into Boston in January and February of this year reached 14,000 bales, and tho stuck remaining on hand on the 10th of March was 17,000 bales in that place. Our jobbers in Hoyne and Meeting streets are doing a good business. Their stock of all the leading articles for the trade is good, but they have not laid iu a heavy supply of fancy and lino goods, as they very naturally supposed that these would not have been iu very general de mand. Tile Loan of the Confederate State* A Calculation The following extract from the Mobile Advertiser furnishes <tu estimate of tho value of cotton, whioh is to supply the basis of security for the proposal loan : With these data boforo us, it is not an extravagant estimate that the cotton crop of tho eight States, during tho next ten years, will increase 40 per cent. But when is addod to this tho consideration that iu the cveut of the border States : standing aloof from the South, an in creased emigration hither of the citizens j of those States, with their families of slaves, is suro to take place, wo may safely disregard the 41 per cent, of the i crop which is produced in those States, and base our calculations upon the former entire crops of tho United States. On that basis, tho expectation of future crops in the Confederate States is us follows: Bales. lstil 62 4,088,000 1882-63 4,228,000 1803-64 4,272,000 1H1',4 lli 4.620,000 1806 00 4.075,000 1800-07 4,825,000 1807 -08 5,000,000 1808-00 5,171,0181 1800 70 5,048,000 The next element iu the calculation is the average weight of the halo of cotton, ranging from 300 pounds on tho Atlantic coast to 400 on tho Mississippi river, and upwards of 500 pounds for tho Mobile market. This, wo think, may safely bo put at 440 pounds; according to which the duty per bale will be 55cents. These data give us the following results, as tho principal and interest of the $15,000,000 loan, for each year, the income applica ble to the redemption of the debt, and the bulanco remaining each year : 1 i>l>t.

Wo have received tho following card from Union Spriugs relating to the late tragedy enacted there a few days siuco, and which furnishes its own explana tion : A Cabs. —The deceased kuown as Thomas, Baulk, and bis brother, known ns Augustus Baulk, had not been on very frieudly torms for some time, and occa sionally their passions nearly involved them in personal collision. On the morning of the day on which Thomas Baulk was killed, before breakfast, de ceased took a gun and passing the room occupied by his brother Augustus, pro ceeded to the steps of tho passage to shoot a young dog that had annoyed the futil ity. An Irishman standing in the yard exclaimed, “Don't shoot him! Dou’t shoot him !“ wheu deceased returned the gun toils place. His brother Augustus overhearing this exclamation, believed that deceased had taken the gnu to shoot him, (Augustus,) but had been dissaud ed by tho Irishman. During breakfast no words passed between deceased and his brother Augustus. Very soon after deceased and his brother Joshua had re tired, Augustus came to tho door of the room where they were sitting and ex “You have threatened to kill me, l will Jsill you first,” and fired, but used no profane language. This statement is deemed but just to both parties, ami is made in order that no undue prejudice may bo indulged agaiust W m. A. Baulk, who, they are as sured, and do believe, will return iu due time and submit toa legal investigation. JOSHUA BAULK. Urn, llouaton'* Aciiuiracrnc*. From the Austin correspondent of tbe Houston Telegraph, we learn that Kx Governor Houston made application to Governor Clark, on the 10th, for the par don of a convict. So, it will be perceived, that Gen. Houston himself recognizes Clark at least as Governor dt facto. Important from Wailllngtsn, Washington, March 38.—Tbe .Senate to-day, among others, confirmed Carl Hhor/. as Minister to Spain; Cassius M. Clay, a* Minister to Russia, A. B. Dick inson, of New York, as Minister to Nic aragua; James!!. Harver, of Bennsyl vauia, as Minister to Portugal; B. F. Isherwood, of New York, as Kngineer-in- Cbiefinthe Navy; George W. Lane, as Judge of the Northern and Southern Dis tricts of Alabama. Captain Josiah Gorgas, of New York, in the Ordinance Depat tmeut, and Lieut. H li. Kelley, of Louisiana, of the infant ry, havo resigned. The statement that more troops have been ordered to land at Fort Pickens, is authoritatively denied, and no such orders have been issued. No nomination has been made to sup ply the vacancy on the bench of the Su premo Court. Mr. Archbold, the late Engineer-in- Cbief of the Navy, was offered that posi tion, but he declined and also declined a similar position under the Confederate States. The convention proposed by Great Bri tain to refer the San Juan dispute to ar bitration, goes over to the next session. Washington. March 28.—1n the Sen ate, Mr. Trumbull introduced a resolution that the true way to preserve the Union is to enforco the laws, and that resistance to their enforcement encourages disunion, and that it is the duty of Ihe President to use all the means in his power to hold and protect the public property, and to enforce the laws in South Carolina, Geor gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Lou isiana, and Texas, as in the other States of tiio Union. Mr. Trumbull said that this resolution expressed his views, and asked that it be printed. Tho Democratic Senators wan ted an immediate vote, but it was not granted. The Senate went into Executive Session, and then adjourned sine die. .Special to the Charleston Courier. Washington, March 27. —Fu1l details concerning the operations of the Post Office Department have been forwarded to Mr. Reagan, Post Master General of tho Confederate States of America, inclu ding the necessary blank books, sched ules, &c Patents have been issued for inventions to day to)citizens of the seceded Slates. This would seem as if they are yet con sidered citizens of tho United States. Col. Lamon returned to night from his visit to Major Anderson, amt has made his report to the President and the Sec retary of War. I understand it is of a strictly confidential nature, and will not bo made public. Purther by the City of Hnltliuore. The steamer Jura, Kangaroo, Nova Scotian, and Fulton, had arrived at Liv erpool. Messina has been surrendered to the Sardinians. Warsaw was quiet. Another Conference will be held on the Syrian question. , Dispatches from Syria aunounco that the Musselman have assumed a threaten ing attitude towards the Christians. Russian troops continuo to arrive at Warsaw. In consequenco of a personal dilliculty. Sir H. Jdulwcr refused to attend the American Minister’s reception on Wash ington’s birthday. Tho City of Baltimore brought eighty one thousand pounds sterling in specie, and the Vigo brought two hundred and forty-eight thousand pound sterling in specie.

Special l>ii|i*toti lo til* Uou.tiiutiouali.t South Carolina State Convent 1011. Charleston, March 28.—The discus sion on the question, whether the Per manent Constitution should or should not bo considered in publio session, was continued to-day. Appearances indi cate that the vote in favor of the ratifica tion will not be so largo as stated in my lettor on yesterday. The Convention decided to discuss the Constitution in secret session, by yeas ninety-four to nay* sixty. There is uothing new about Fort Sum ter matters. Grobgia. Washington Affair*. Washington, March 28.—At both ends of the Avenue to-day there were matters of groat importance discussed. Col. Lamon, who recently visited Fort Sumter, reported fully to the President, and tho matter was fully discussed in Cabinet counsel to-day. It is reported | in generally well informed political cir cles, that no order has yet been issued and goue forward for Maj. Anderson to : evacuate Fort Sumter, but it is confi dently expected that a spocial messenger will be sent, at an early day, with the necessary instructions. There is much talk about the discre pancies and inconsistencies iu Major An derson's dispatches to the Government; but it is believed that the Administra tion claims to possess the happy faculty ! of harmonising all of those disorepan i eics. Trumbull, of Illinois, iu introducing a resolution to-day, made a wur speech in the Senate, in which he expressed the hope that Liucoln would enforce the Fed eral laws in all the seceded States. The ! Republicans wisely determined not to put Trumbull's resolution to vote, and still more wisely adjourned shie die. The Commissioners from the Ceufede rate States remain firm and calm, and hopeful of highly favorable results to their mission. ■ - Public Opinion In Uuglnuil W lot I* tlionglit of tile American Crisis. New \ ork, March 27.— George Pea body, the American Banker in England, comes out iu a stroug letter against the coercion programme- of the Northern Abolitionists.
