Certiorari—from Richmond. !•» J
The statute of 15th Febiuaiy, 1856, enacts
that the City Council of Augusta shall be and
they are hereby authorized to elect an office^
to be known as Recorder, in whom,they may
veat exclusive jurisdiction of all violation* of
these ordinances. Ac. The act also provide^
that said Recorder shall be elected and hold
his office for the term of two years, shall take
an oath befon the Mayor well and truly to;dis
charge the duties of his office, Ac: Held that
the object of this act was to promote good
government and order in the city, and that it
was the dnty of the Council to elect a Re
corder; and that it was clearly th* intention
of tho Legislature, that the office of Mayo*
and the office of Recorder should be separate
and distinct offices, filled by different per
sons, one of whom is required to take the
oath of office before the other; and that the
provision in the statute which authoilxes the
City Council or Mayor, in the absence of th*
Recorder, to appoint one of their body to
preside in tho Recorder’s court, contemplates
the tewponuy absence of the Recorder, ant
does not authoilze the City Council to abotii *
the office of Recorder ana direct the Mayi
permanently to act as Recorder.

firmer severity would not be a circumstance
tx what his conduct would be in that case.
Al ih a view to save their families from insult
au 1 their homes from rain, day before yester-
<U' they assembled and were proceeding to
eleit oUirers for two companies drawn up in
a l’ue, one white and one colored, when, to
th* astonishment of all, Cullen Baker, the
de-perado, aud his band were seen approach
ing in line of buttle in the most hostile ap-
peatmnoe. The colored company stampeded
for i minute, l»ut were restored to order and
pIauv by the cool behavior of the
wliifrh. When in about one hundred
yar It of tho place Baker spoke aloud
and nud. peace au.1 good will to those who
wonll not molest him. One or two promi
nent citizens advanced and explained the ob
ject if the assembly. Captain T. S. Vail, a
mail route agent, also went up and talked w ith
Bak.v awhile, when the whole band rode
awnj and croaacd the Texas tine that even

York rnd is Wing of invaluable service to
this ahappy people in this hour of their
dang r and trouble. Whether General Cat-
tanxu; will recognize, the militia organized

The lttipl* were powerless before Baker and
his ui* i, and will be before Cattereon when

responsible for not taking Baker, when

WISHING TO REPLENISH
A TERRIBLE INVENTION. 4
I Regiment of Soldiers, n Mils and a
half DNtant, to he Killed fa Four
Mlnaten. .
[From the Naahvi’le Press and Times, 23d.]
Some months ago a mechanical genius,
whose name we are not at liberty to disclose,
told us he had an idea, which he was en
deavoring to “work out,” by which a very
tittle army could be made irresistible against
any number of enemies. He promised to let
ns have the benefit of the idea if he found
that it could be mode practicable. Since
then he has diligently worked at it every
evening, Sundays not excepted, bringing it
“out,” ns he calls it Daring those months
his abstracted ain his isolation, tbe constant
succession of hopes and fears aboat the suc
cess of his project, which would be visible on
his face for days together, led many of his
neighbors to suppose -that he was mayo or
less crazy. He brought his long and absorb
ing labors to a successful termination about
four days ago, and bad the gratification of
testing the utility of his perfected idea, with
the most complete evidence of its practica
bility. The invention consists of a range of
guns of 0.76 bore and aboat forty inches
long, mounted on a carriage of very simple
structure, to bo hauled by one horse. The
width of the carriage between the wheels is
six feet. The gun barrels, twelve in number,
are ranged apparently parallel to each other
upon this carriage. We say apparently, for
their tine of fire is not strictly parallel, but.
divergent, so that at three hundred yards
distant the twelve bullets sweep a ,: ne of
about thirty feet They are ranged at equal
distances from each other, except in the mid
dle, where there is a space of ten inches, into
which is placed a telescope of considerable
power, and a nice arrangement for adjusting
the gnus in taking aim. This contri
enables the operator to send a ballet through
the bull's eye at sixteen hundred yards nine
times out of ton. The tabes themselves ore
rilled, are double the strength of ordinary
rifles, and are made strong at the breech by a
band six inches broad agd one-sixth thick.
They are all loaded at the breech. The
breech pieces arc all connected by a rod,
which is attached to a crank, one turn of
which opens and shuts (ill the breach pieces
and loads ‘die pieces, for the breech pieces,
by this motion, are brought in contact with
twelve tubes,, placed immediately .over the
breeches and containing the cartridges, the
sarno turn extracting the cartridge from its
tube, and inserting it with precision in its
place m the gun. The gobs are made ready
fqr firing by us simple and rapid a motion as
the turning of a crank. They ore fired by.
another slight motion,. which drives twelve
needles, inserted in the breech for the pur
pose, into the falmirate with which the
cartridges are conveyed. So simple, sure and
rapid are these movements that twenty-seven
rounds were fired in sixty-threa apeonds, * —-
