THE BAHY TIM %S. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10. Hon. B. H. Hill. A fining tribute to the legal ability of the above named gentleman, is paid by the correspondent ot j the Macon Journal &. Messenger- It was the case of Parsons vs. Lucus in Monroe Superior Court in which he was engaged, it oc cupied live days of the Court, and the speeches before the Jury were said to have been able- Ihe writer says; “All were able arguments, but with out intending any disparagement ot the claims of either of the eminent counsel, whose names have been mentioned, truth, and a proper appreciation of the talents of the Hon. iB. fi. Hill, require a special notice ol his argument. 1 have heard Berrien.Colquitt and Lumpkin, in one of the most important cases that has ever been submitted in Georgia, to a jury, but 1 have never beard a more able address than that of the .Hon. gentle man in this case. For ‘skillful arrangement ol his legal propositions, and appropriate presenta tions of them, in a strong and convincing manner, he is unsurpassed; in his arrangement and .argu ment olfacts, he has not an equal, lie has a happy manner, peculiar to hirnself, of interspers ing in his argument, just at the right place, the moat powerful and stirring pathetic appeals—re lieving the direct subject of its weariness,_and ma king every head a novelty. The bar was crowd ed with ladies who came to hear him.” Law and Order. —North and South. We are told that the people of this vast Confed eracy are or.e iri interest, feeling and sentiment. That we are children of a common father, wor shipping at the same altar, sitting around the same hearth-stone, loving the same house-hold gods, occupying different chambers under the same pa ternal roof. It is a glorious thing that harmony and good-teeling—the well-being of every regula ted house-hold, should exist. Rules and restric tions are necessary for the common good—that the strong may not tyrannize over the weak — that the hero of disobediance and misrule may not infringe upon the sacred rights of the lover of or der and equality-that all may share alike the heri tage and patrimony of a common parent. This is in accordance with the rules ot justice and equity. What remedy is ihere when a part of the house-hold keeps the law -abides by the contract —holds sacred the obligations of brotherhood, while the other infringes upon the law—grows in solent with power—disregards the lies which unite the heirs of a common possession i These thoughts are suggested by the arrival and disposition which is to be made of the three hun dred captured Africans recently brought into the Charleston harbor. They are in a State, where t he warmest Southern blood flows—where slaves darken every rice field—where high-toned chival ry and independence characterize the people— where the Africans themselves desire to remain in servitude than return to Liberia—and yet, bowing to the majesty of the law—holdiug inviolate its mandates—the people of the South with one voice cry aloud let the law be executed, let the Africans he returned against their own will in ac cordance with.its preeepts. We ask for nothing hut that which the law entitles us—we scorn, we re pudiate the idea ol grasping authority through the channels of a heartless mob !—Change the scene. Land three hundred fugitive slaves at a port in Boston—the law requires that they be returned to their owners, and the people rise up in resistance to it—they snatch away the slave from the master, with all the fury, zeal and enthusiasm which the christiaus of the Middle Age tore the Holy Sepul chre from the hands of the infidel Muselman ! And yet, in the face of all this rebel ion, they talk about the disobedient children of the South and really say, they will “whip us into subjection.” We commend the poisoned chalice to their own lips I _Savannah Georgian. We regret to embarrassment into which our honored cotemporary has lallen, and shall feel a yet more puDgent sorrow if this embarrass ment shall operate a discontinuance of that paper. We have a hope, however, that the Democracy of Chatham will not be content to dispense with the services of so valiant a champion, as the Georgian has ever been, of their principles. Mr. A. R. La mar, its present or late editor, fe justly regarded one of the most talented journalists in the South, and being strongly imbued with the doctrine of Sonth ern and State Rights, the loss of Iris zealous and able advocacy at this time we should deplore as a calamity to our section. The Slaves— Habeas Corpus. The slaver of the brig Putnam, who are con fined in Jail at Columbia, were to have been tried on the Bth, on a writ of Habeas Corpus. They allege that they have been confined undercolor ot authority, charged with some offence against the U. S. laws. That they have not been informed of their offence. That they have not been examined before any magistrate, nor has there been any examination of their accusers confronting them, or any evidence against them taken in their presence, but they have been imprisoned, and are still held in piison, without any lawful commitment, and contrary to law. They are to be tried before Judge Magrath.

Ihe details are given, but are too disgusting to repeat, [FOR THE COLUMBUS TIMES.] A Suggestion to Planters. I have been long conviuced that every consider ation of benefit and advantage to owners and man aaers, recommended a change in the employment of Overseers— making the year to commence and end on the first of October, instead of the first of January. All that remains of the year’s work on the first Oct., are cotton picking and coin gath j ering. A manager taking charge at that time would prosecute them with more energy and care, than one who expected to leave at the end ol the year. He would hurry the cotton picking in order to have all the time possible to prepare for the ne.x t year’s crpp. He would gather and carefully house the com, with an eye to its use by himself. He would put down the crops of small grain with more care, expecting himself to reap them. He would more carefully fatten the pork—hogs, ex pecting himself to use the bacon. The plough and grazing stock would he taken in charge at the commencement of Winter, and he would feel, in taking care of them, more interest and respon sibility, than if he had to carry them half through it and then turn them over to a successor. Between the first October and first January there ia much time that cannot he devoted to cotton picking, this he would feel more interest in appro priating to repairs, ditching, &c., preparatory to the next crop, than would one who expected to leave at the end of the year. Again, thus taking charge on the tirt October, his means ot ascer taining the capacities of the plantation and the force upon it, would be far superior to what they would be under the present plan. But] forbear to extend this article, believing that 1 have said enough to call the attention of the planting community to it. It is easy enough of accomplishment. Will not the Southern Cul tivator, the Soil of the South, the Agriculturists soon to assemble at Atlanta and the Cotton Planter’s Convention of Houston County, give these suggestions such consideration as their im portance seems to demand, in the opinion of, at least, one PLANTER. The State Hoad, On the 30th ult., but too late to he no ticed in our last week’s issue, the Treasu rer of the State Road paid into the State Treasury the snug little sum of s*33,ouQ of net earnings for the month of August. In addition to this, we are informed the Su perintendent has kept back a considerable amount as a fund to be used in the pur chase of more new iron, with which to re place that part of the road where the iron is worn. The road is kept in excellent or der, and more repairs have been made du ring the last year on the track, than were made in any one of the last several years. There are over three hundred hands at work on the line of the road, and have been most of the summer. All employees are paid monthly. Every debt against the road is paid promptly at the end of each month, and no new debts are permitted to accrue. Not a dollar ot the monthly payments into the State Treasury is from any other source than from net earnings of the road. Upon this subject we speak advisedly. The $33,- 000 paid in for the last mouth, added to the different amounts heretofore paid into the Treasury from the Ist Marclt last, make up the aggregate of $150,000 net earnings for the last six months, is not this a pret ty fair semi-annual return made by the peo ples’s servants having the management of our great State work ? We opine it is— what will the croakers say ? If the law would permit it, the Governor could reduce the taxes much more than he has done. The statute makes it his duty to raise $375,000, and not more than S4OO - The tax has heretofore been assess ed in reference to raising the larger sum. $400,000. This year the (icT'mur and Comptroller Gono~; assessed it in refer ence the smaller sum, $375,000, which was all the reduction they were authorized to make under existing laws. Whether the money is needed or not, it is the duty of the Governor and Comptroller General to assess the taxes so as to raise at least $375,000, as the law now stands. If Ihe next legislature will pass an act in accord ance with the recorrmendations which Gov. Brown made to them at, the last session, authorizing him to apply the net earnings of the State road in payment of the taxes, the road after this year could almost pay the taxes of the State. This is the way to do things up Brown. — Fed. Union. Movements of U. S. Troops in Oregon. The Indian Wak. — A letter from San Francisco, dated August 4th. to the New York Herald , referring to the I'nited States troops in Oregon, says : Troops are, however, marching from all parts of the coast to Walla-Walla. The detachments of the third artillery, which first left there, arrived safe at Fort Vancou ver, where the men were armed for the field, and then proceeded up the Columbia river to Fort Dallas. Here they encamp ed, to the number of about 300, lor some days, while the officers were mounted and the necessary preparations were made for entering the Indian country. The follow ing were the officers of the four companies belonging to the division :—Company A — Lieutenants Robt. O. Tyler and Hvlan B. i Lyon, Company B—Lieutenant George j P. lhrie end James Howard. Company G— ! Lieutenants James L. White, Dunbar B. j Ransom and Lawrence Kip. Company M—Captain Erasmus D. Keys and Lien- Lieutenant Geo. F. R. Dandy. Captain James A. Hardie, Company G., was expec ted there by the next steamer; also, Com pany D. under command of Captain Fran cis O. Wvse, and Company R, under Capl. Edward O. C. Ord. The division at the Dalles marched for Walla-Walla on the 6th of July, It was expected that it would take them about 1 twelve days to cross the country to that j post, which is Col. Steptoe’s position. As : soon as a sufficient force is collected at that point the first column is to be formed of ) seven hundred men, under command of Colonel Wright, of the ninth infantry. They | wpre to leave Fort Walla-Walla on the first j of August, to proceed northward through j the Spokan country lying west of the Rocky j mountains, to meet the Indians who defeat- j ed Col. Steptoe. As these tribes are now j Hushed with their victory, and can bring ; over 3,000 warriors into the field, they may j determine to meet our troops. If so. we shall hear aceouuts of a most sanguinary battle. Another column of three hundred men, under command of Major Robert S. Gar nett, of the ninth infantry, is to leave the Dalles August 15th, to march northward through the Simcoe and Natcher country lying east of the Cascade range. Col. E—, fourth infantry, under oommand of Captain Henry M. Judah, is en route for Fort Van- couver. A company of seventy-five dra goons, under Lieu*. John T. Mercer, have arrived at Stockton on the.ir way to Oregon, from the southern country. By the last steamer, went home Lieut. John S. Macon, third artillery, on recruit ing duty ; also the wife and children of Captain Taylor, ot first dragoons, who was killed in Steptoi’s defeat. By to morrow's statement, Captain J. W. T. Gardiner, of first dragoons, returns East on sick leave. His post, Fort Crook, is h it in charge ot Lieut. Carr. Also, Lieut. J. S.

A Madrid telegraphic despatch says that a mili tary expedition is preparing for Havana. Fur'her riots are reported in Caudia, and Chris tian® killed. What lias become of the Cable ? The cable gives no sign. It was duly opened in New York on the Ist instant with all sorts of demonstrations, and it ought to acknowledge this ovation by opening its mouth for once at least; yet it continues to be speechless. The difficulty is care fully concealed from all except the initia ted, or is permitted to leak out little by i;t tle. By steamer Irom Europe we are ad mitted to a knowledge of the existence oi certain retardations to thn transmission of the electric current, and which present dif ficulties in the way of the practical work ing of the cable. On this side, we have a significant fact in the retirement ot Cyrus W. Field from the direction of the compa ny, proving that discord exists among the players upon this.“ocean harp.” It is hint ed that his resignation is due to a fore knowledge ot’ the outbreak which is cer tain to ensue among the electricians and their partizans. The line is still under the superintendence of Engineer Bright, whose incompetency delayed the submersion of the cable a twelvemonth, and of Electrician Whitehouse, who occupies it exclusively in experiments to perfect the working of in struments of his own invention—instru ments ascertained in this country to he far inferior to the delicate apparatus of Mr. Hughes. When the line shall have passed from the blundering management now con trolling it, to one imbued with the true spir it of American enterprise, we shall expect some practical results from the accomplish ment of tin's great work.— Washington Union. News from Kansas. Governor Denver, of Kansas, has recent ly published a letter by way of a reply to unanimous petitions presented to him by residents of that Territory, request ing him to convene an extra session of the Legislature. The governor declines to call the extra session, showing that at the pre sent time there are no members of the Le gislature whose official terms have not ex pired. He also expresses the opinion that the next election should be held under the last apportionment, according to the act of , February 20th, 1857. He concludes by saying that he had consulted the President and the Attorney General of the United States oti this point, and both agreed that the next election should be held under this apportionment. Electoral Vote in 1860.—Before the next Presidential election, three new States, additional to those voting in 1856, will have been admitted, viz: Minnesota, already in the Union, with Kansas and Oregon to come in next winter. In 1856, the whole number of electoral votes was 296; with the above-mentionod new States, the whole number in 1860 will be 306. Of this num ber, 254 will be required for a majority. And of the 406 electoral votes, 120 will be long to the Slave States, aud 186 to the Free States. The majority of the North over the South is-thus shown to be 60. From Washington. The Paraguay Expedition—The Law 1/- plicable to the Captured Slates, <f 'C. Correspondence 6f the N. Y. Herald. W ASIIfNGTON, Sept. 3. The selection of the Commissioner to Paraguay occasions the President no little embarrassment. There are several appli cants who are strongly pressed, hut the President desires the man whom ho ap points to possess three important qualifies tion.s: First, he must have brains; second, to *peak and write the Spanish and Portu- j gnese languages; and,third, possesses suf ficient prominence as a democrat to silence I the complaints of such as claim the cilice j on the score of compensation for services w ithout regard to fitness for the perform ance of its duties. The matter will he de cided shortly, and the decision will relieve many anxious persons from the suspense which they have suffered long. The Paraguay expedition is becoming every day of greater importance. The President is determined not to fail in the means of bringing Lopez to terms, as it would be a national disgrace if that despot should rob American merchants of millions, and fire into a national vessel with impu nity. As the Platte squadron is to be en larged thirteen or fourteen vessels, part of which will be unable to ascend as far as Assumption, it became necessary to have a commodore on the station, and within sup -1 porting distance of Captain Pige, who is j to do the lighting, as he h.-.s done the ex ploring on this river, Cum. Shubrick, who heads the li-t of navy captains, has been placed in command of the whole squadron, and Captain Page is second in command, s that they will be in Jose connection iu the organization of the squadron and the performance of its duties. Judge Black’s force in the Attorney Gen eral’s office are carefully examining all the aw*, and decisions relative to the disposi tion of Africans taken onboard slavers.— The case reveals a positive obligation on the part of the Executive to send them back to their native land. The proposition had been started that they were free agents, and aa such, could elect to remain or go back, as might please themselves; but a case was decided by Judge Harper, in Louisia na, in July, 1830, which overruled this point, and left them no agency in the mat ter. The act wasdeelared to be imperative. It is generally a matter of gratification to people here that the slaver was taken to a Southern port, and that the trial of tiro crew will take place where the citizens of a slave State cun show their appreciation both of the slave Trade and the laws for its suppression.
