I THE DAILY TIMES. MONDAY, OCT OBER 4. The Proof. Ti.e Enquirer* in response to a caJi from us to produce the proof of Mr. Tucker’s inelligibility to the |fiiceof Judge of the Superior Court, quotes a part of Section It, Article 1. o( the Constitution of the State ol Georgia, which reads as to!lows : Art. I , Sec. I'.— * * * “Nor shall any Senator or Representative be elected to any office or appointment by the Legislature, having any emoluments or compensation annexed thereto, during the term for which ha shall have been elected, with the above exceDtious (Justices of In ferior Courts, Justices of the Peace, and officers of the militia,) unless he shall decline accepting his scat, by notice to the Executive, within twenty daj s alter he shall have been elected; nor shall any member, after having taken his seat, be eligi* ble to any of the aforesaid offices or appoint’ ments during the time for which he shall have ‘ been elected.” Perhaps, it should be premised that Mr. 1 ucker jB, at present, a Senator to the Legislature, and that hia term,aseuch, will expire on the first Monday in October next. We will also remark that, if elected, his judicial term will not commence until I the former shall have expired. This we mention 1 to obviate the conclusion which might be drawn [1 from the position we have assumed, and which I might seem to place us in conflict with See. 1> I Art. 11, in the Constitution. We are unable to seejiow an unprejudiced mind I can consider the above extract from the Constilu- I lion, without admitting that it can have no appli- I cation to the case of Mr. Tucker. The whole, 9 paragraph, or section i3 one sentence. The first 9 portion of it imposes a restriction on the power of I the Legislature to elect a member of its own body I to any office of emolument, in totidem verbis ; I the latter poriion, parts of which have been itali cised by our cotemporary, makes express refer ence to tho same offices and appointments, and mug, by every principle ol hermeneutics, refer to the earn Qinode of election. What, for instance, could ‘‘ the aforesaid offices or appointments” be I supposed to mean, but those, the incumbants of which were to b 8 elected by the Legislature ? No other rational interpretation can be placed upon the language. If any support is needed for this position, it is furnished in the fact that, by the Con stitution, of which the abovj section is a part, the | election of Judges of the Superior Courts was made by tho Legislature ; and siucs the framers of that instrument cannot be presumed to have anticipated a change in this regard, we are bound to infer that they acted in the premises with ref erence, exclusively, to that form of election. So much for the letter ol tho Cons'itution. With respect to the reason of’ the restriction in the clause wo have quoted above, little need be said. That it applies to elections by the Legisla ture, and not to elections by the people is obvious. The framers of the Constitution, foreseeing the danger of intrigue and corruption which would be incurred by allowing the Legislature to choose one of its own members to fill an office of emolu ment, very wisely determined to guard against it. It wou'd not be trespassing too far upon the region of romance to suppose it possible, that in the ab sence of this provision, a Legislator might be found whose conduct could be swayed by the promise of support for office. Indeed it would necessarily result in converting our Legislative halls into electioneering chambers. Men would ha candi dates for the Legislature in the hopo of further promotion by that body, and, if elected, instead of serving their constituents and the State, would de vote their talents and energies to their own service. To forestall this evil the 2d section of the Ist ar ticle was incorporated in the Constitution* The argument cannot be mad* to apply to elections by tho prople, and hence we infer, both from the letter and spirit of the instrument, that it was never intended to be so construed. To-day and To-morrow- The Savannah Rebuuican of September 29th says: “The Administration—we say it cherriuliy, though an opponent to the party that brought it into power— has stood firmly by the South and adhered, with hardly a solitary deviation, to the policy claimed as essential to our security.” Then the policy of tho Gabinot has been a wise one—the South has had wise counsellors there — they have “adhered with hardly a solitary devia tion” to our interests—they have ‘‘stood firmly by the South” and their selection should be a matter of congratulation with the Republican. Again the Republican of October Ist, —two days after tho above compliment is paid tho Cabinet, —says ; He (Howell Cobb) was a fast nag, but has, un fortunately, we fear let down by getting into the wrong stable. Buchanan’s cabinet is a mangy affair, and if all the tenants do not come out unfit for the turf, wo shall be willing to surrender our pretensions to prophecy. Railroad Meeting in Pickens Cos. There was a large and enthusiastic Railroad meeting in Jasper, Pickens county on the 14th of Sept. The following counties were represented by delegates—Cobb, Forsyth, Lumpkin, Pickens and Gilmer. It was the sense of the meeting that a Railroad from Marietta, Cobb county, through Cherokee to Duck Town, would be of “general interest to the State in developing the resources of State aid was asked. It will be a bad policy for the State to embark in Railroad schemes. The Richmond Duel.—lt is apprehended, we learn, that the Hon. Sherrard Clemens, M. C„ who was severely wounded in the late duel with O. Jennings Wise, cue of the Associate Editors of the Ricnmond Enquirer, is not likely to recov’ er. At the fourth fire, it will be recollected, Mr. Clemeus was wounded in the hip joint, and there are_evidences of mortification having taken place. The Panama Railroad to Australia.—We learn that, among the passengers by the Niagara was Edward Cunard, esq., one of the directors of the Pauama Railroad Company. Ho reports the negotiations with the English Government rela tive to the despatch ol the Australian mails via Panama, is nearly completed, and no doubt whatever is entertained that a fair trial of the new route will throw all the extensive traffic of that region over the Panama Road as it has been already demonstrated by Lieut. Porter to be the shortest route by several days. It i 3 expected that the steam service wil be performed by the extra steamers of the Cunard line; aud this fact alone is a sufficient guarantee of tho manner in which it will be done. A woman named Scheliiug, at Groveport, 1 rankiin county, Ohio, [committed suicide and murder, on the 22d, by ..throwing lour children (one boy and three girls, the oldest 12 years of age and the youngest 2,) and herself into a well, thirty five feet deep,and drowning them all— She is supposed to have been insane through jealously. Mr. James Gardner. This distinguished Georgian recently made a speech to the Democracy of Bunker Hill, in or near Boston Mass, which we should be glad to place before our readers Which \io are denied this pleasure by its length, we will express our gratification at the fact that Mr- Gardner has de parted from the rather beaten track of Southern Or ators and thought it proper to declare, from a ros ttum in freesoil Massachusetts, such sentiments as would be greeted with applause by a Southern audience. The speech is Southern,constitutional, patriotic, and we commend him lor his manliness and independence. ♦ Hon Robert Toombs. This gentleman made a speech in Washington, Wilkes County, on 33th Sept, at a Rail Road meeting. The object of the meeting was to effect an extension of the Rad Road from Wash through Elbert county to Hartwell in Hart couuty, Appropriate committees were appointed. Emerson Foote, Esq. We regret to learn the death of Emerson Foote Esn., superintendent of tho Central railroad, which took place Thursday night, Sept 3Jth, ol yellow fever, at Savannah. He was long and favorably known to the people of Georgia as a man of the strictest integrity and probity,and regarded by all who knew him as the very soul of honor. English Cotton Manufacturers. The London correspondent of the Liverpool Mercury, writing on the afternoon of the 14th of September, says: “Tha cotton manufacture in England is stated, on good authority, to be in a Letter state than it has beon.at any timo, since the year 1846. On -somo ofthe recent shipments of twist, the profit is said to be two pence per pound.” Tha reports from tho Liverpool Exchange, on the altornoon of the 14th of September, were fa vorable to the cotton trade. The report says:— “The Manchester market has again advanced to day as much as onodburth to a half pence in yarns and three pence per piece in cloth ; and even at these prices, spinners are not very willing to enter into large contracts—the very prospect of a fur ther rise thus tending to check the extent of busi ness, which, however, continues very extensive, particularly lor India and China.” The Period of Life Subject to Insanity. The London Lancet says that to determine the .period ofli‘e which furnishes the greatest number of insane persons, it is sufficient to bring together the records, made up under different circumstan ces. One of these, made at the Bicetre, France where poor men only are received ; another at tho Saltpetriere, a hospital for poor women ; the 3rd, an establishment devoted to the wealthy, have been examined, and it appears that the age which furnishes tho greatest number of insane is, for men that from thirty to forty years, while for women it is that from fifiy to sixty years. The ages which furnish the least, for both sexes, are child hood, youth, and advanced age. Among women insanity generally appears earlier than among men, indeed, from twenty to thirty years of age. The rich are more subject to insanity, in propor tion, than the poor. _ Gen. Joseph Lane. This brave soldier and indomitable Democrat is at present on a visit to our State. Cen. Lane was always a favorite with the Democracy of the Old Keystone State, and he will be mado sensible of this fact by the attentions showered upon him du*. ring hia stay.— Pennsylvanian. The Great Calamity. The universal grief and sympathy excited by that most tragical of tragedies, the loss of the Austria and the destruction of over five hundred human beings by drowning, suffo cation and fire, should net prevent a rigid inquiry into the conduct of those, living or dead, who were in any degree responsible for the great calamity. Here is a well ap pointed steamship, with an iron hull, and divided into water-tightcompartments, un usaliy well provided against perils by fire and by water, and, withal, carrying boats enough to save every soul on board, allow ed to burn to the water’s edge, apparently without a single well considered and well directed effort either to smother the flames, or to provide for the safety of the passen gers. The fire did not originate, as some times happens, in a concealed and inacces sible poition of the vessel, but on the deck of the steerage, a point exposed to the con stant supervision of fhe officers and open to the immediate and adequate application of water. Moreover, as the fire was caused by a heated chain, which had been careless ly dropped, itseeins as if the small part of the deck in flames could have been instant ly and effectually deluged. Under these circumstances and with the additional fact in their favor, that the fire broke out in the daytime, so that darkness was not added to the horrors of the scene it seems that even if the flames could not have been smothered, the eight life boats might have been safely lowered, and the passengers taken on board in an orderly and decent manner. Several of the boats were launched in such a lubberly fashion, that they were immediately swamped or cut in pieces by the screw; and all effort to escape by the other boats seems then to have been abandoned. As to the conduct of the officers, it is perhaps not just to condemn individuals until the evidence is more thoroughly sifted; but it appears that the helmsman deserted his post, leaving the head of the ship to the wind; while Mr. Brewis, apparently an observant witness, asserts that he did not see an officer dur ing the fire, and that the captain was heard to exclaim, as he rushed distractedly about “We are all lost!” a spectacle not calcula ted to excite heroism either among his offi cers, the crew or the passengers. It seems also, that the first, second, and third offi cers. besides two petty officers and the steward, managed to save themselves; and that the eaptain and fourth officer, were lost in the water while endeavoring to clear away a boat. We repeat, however, it is not proper to condemn individuals until further information is obtained; but it is not untrue or unfair to .say of the offi cers generally, that they seem to have been unfit for such a crisis, that they lost their presence of mind, and that the destruction of life was largely increased by their lack of discipline, and the absence of some ener getic heroic spirit, compent to quell the confusion and panic which prevailed from the first. —Journal of Cojnmerce. Frost. —The weather for the past week has been cool and pleasant, and yesterday morning our vicinity was visited by a frost. The health of our city and country contin ues good. —Albany Patriot , Sept. 30th. The Steamship Florida. The New York Journal of Commerce of Tuesday last, says: “The steamship Flori da left New York on Tuesday, the 21st inst., for Savannah, On Wednesday after noon, when about forty miles North of Hattera-, she met with an accident to her machinery, which disabled her. On Thurs day morning she fell in with the brig Mary E Milliken, from Philadelphia for Cardenas, to which vessel a part of the passengers were transferred, in the steamer’s boats, with the understanding that they were to be landed at Tybee next day. While re turning under canvass, she was met by the steamer Augusta, hence for Savannah, who took her in tow, and arrived here late on Sunday night. “The steamship Star of the South arriv ed here yesterday with the fifty-three pas sengers that had gone on board the brig Mary E. Mil liken. The steamer Augusta left in the afternoon with ail the Florida’s passengers, including those brought by the Star ofthe South.” Judge J. B. Bishop and family, who were on board the Florida at the time of the accident, reached tiieir residence in this city on yesterday afternoon. They came through by land from New York. The Judge states that the sea was very rough at the time of the accident, and the only appre hension on board the Florida was, that she might drift on to Cape Ilatteras. By the aid of rockets aud cannon they attracted the attention of the Augusta, and the noble commander ol that vessel soon came along side and proffered every assistance in his power to extend. Large hawsers were attached to the Florida, and the Augusta towed her safely to New York on Sunday night last. In the afternoon of Monday, the passen gers who had sought safety on the Mary E Milliken were snluiy conveyed to New York in the Star of he South. We unde 1 stand that nearly all the pas sengers immediately registered their names in the steamship Augusta for Savannah. From the Isthmus. The United States steamship Saranac was at Aspirnvall. Senor Obaldia had been elected Governor of Panama by 1,400 majority over the min isterial candidate. The election, contrary to expectation, passed off quietly. South America. It is reported that Peru is about declar ing war against Ecuador. The Merimac and Decatur were at Cailao. Dates from Valparaiso to August 15th report peace prevailing throughout Chili. Boiivia had reduced her army one-half. Venezuelan accounts say an attempt at revolution had been made by Genarai Su gor, who was sent to occupy Laguayra, but he found himself without armed soldiers, though nearly a thousand men collected. He turned backward with several influen tial Liberals, and was arrested. General Seubette, with the Spanish and Brazilian ministers, started from Caracas for Lagua yra, and telegraphic dispatches from the former place, give hopes of a speedy and satisfactory settlement. Central America. General Lamar has arrived at Costa Rica. General Obaldia has been elected Governor of the State of Panama. Nicaragua was quiet. It is rumored that San Salvador is about invading Honduras. The Honduras railway project is regard ed as entirely abandoned. The cholera was disappearing from Guatemala.

Mrs. Partington. —“Bless my soul,” ex claimed old Mrs. Partington, as she dropt her knitting, “you Ike, unite that gourd from the kitten’s tail, and read this. Here it is officiously denounced that the great Snubmarine Gigantic Paragraph Table been excessively replcted. And just to think, it has already been destituted to base purpos es, for the delegators on the machine have discoved letters exporting to have written by an old bachelor named Buchanan to another man’s wife —Victory somebody ; who they say has a houseful of children; poor man, I don’t know what he wants with her. Its an outrage upon plurality; yet everybody hails it with distressive de nominations of delight, simply because a poor delegate female woman has been silly enough to write on it. The two nations united, indeed! And here we can’t even have the dan ville connection, which is of more impor tance than the dissection ofthe two condi ments by excentricity, because somebody else (without authority) they wouldn’t ax it! Oh my ! Go to play Ike !” And the old ’oman began to nod, Bloody Duel near Memphis. —A letter from Memphis, Tenn , to the Lancaster (Pa.) Examiner, says that a duel was re cently fought near that city by Mr. Watters, of Virginia, and Dr. J. E. Nagle, formerly of Pennsylvania. They fired two rounds with Derringer pistols, both being wounded at each fire. They then, by agreement, resorted to revolvers, and continued the fight. Mr. Watters was riddled at every shot, and it is said, died on Sunday night. Dr. Nagle was so badly wounded that his recovery is though impossible. Paraguay and the British Minister.— According to a letter in the New York Ex press, dated Buenos Ayres, July 30, a most ridiculous quarrel has arisen between the ( British Minister near the Argentine Repub lic, and President Lopez, cheif magistrate of Paraguay. The latter received the for mer in robes of State, but with his head covered. The Minister took umbrage and made formal complaint to the Paraguayan Secretary of State, who briefly replied that the Queen of England so received Foreign Ministers. The irate Minister demanded his passports ; received them, and went away in a merchant steamer, called the Little Polly. In the night the Paraguayan war steamer Taeauri ran into the charm ing Little Polly, and the yet excited Minis ter claims that it was done on purpose, and as an additional insult, though it was palpable that those on board the Taeauri could have no knowledge of the Minister being on board the Little Polly. The sto ry is ridiculous : but makes an excitement paragraph. T elegraphic. REPORTED FOR THE COLUMBUS TIMES. New York Market. New York, Oct. Ist. Sales of Cotton to-day four thousand bales.

The New York Times professes to have advices from Washington, that Sir William Gore Ousley, on the part of Great Bri'ain, has negotiated with Senors Molina and Je rez, on the part ol Nicaragua, a “Treaty of Friendship, Commerce, and Navigation,” which has already been approved by the British Government, and is certain to be ratified by that of Nicaragua. Its chief object is to prevent privileges being grant ed to the people of any country that are not equally granted to British subjects. In mat ters of trade especially, the Englishman is placed by Nicaragua on a par with the citi zens of the most favored nation. In article 20, the right of transit be tween the two oceans, on any route that may be hereafter constructed in Nicaragua Territory, is fully conceded to Great Britain and it is distinctly stipulated that no for* igners will be permitted to enjoy privileges from which British subjects are excluded. The British Government accords a con ditional protection to the inter-oceanic route, guarantees its neutrality, and promises its influence to induce other nations to do the same. The most important stipulation, however, is that which, in the event of Nicaragua failing to protect the persons and property of passengers traversing the Isth mus, gives to Great Britain the right of employing force for such a purpose. Asa set off to tho above, the New York Express has the best personal authority for saying the Nicaragua minister in this coun try has neither signed nor negotiated any such treaty with Grent Britain. The Times must have known that Senor Jerez arrived in July, when this treaty pur ports to have been negotiated in June. The acquaintance of Sir Gore Ousley and Senor Jerez was not made till August. Washington Slates. Mr. Buclianan’s Message to the Queen The Milwaukee (Wis.) Sentinel of Wed nesday says: Exception being taken by some mem bers of the Jewish persuasion to one par ticular paragraph in the telegraphic de spatch sent by President Buchanan to Queen Victoria, Dr. Isidor Kalisch, Rabbi ofthe Bne Jeshurun congregation in this city, wrote to the President for an explan ation. Yesteiday Dr. Kalisch called upon us to read the President’s reply, and re quest its publication in the Sentinel. It is as follows: “Washington City, Sept. 11,1858: “My Dear Sir— l have received your favor of the sth inst., and permit me to say that in the construction of my answer to the Queen I think you are somewhat hyp ercritical. Most certainly I never intended by using the expression, “All the nations of Christendom,” to cast any reflection up on the Jews. Such an idea never enter ed my mind. Both as President of fhe Uni ted States and as an individual, I have ever been the advocate of religious liberty and the perfect freedom of conscience. For many of your persuasion I entertain the the highest personal regard, and I would be the last man in the world, either in an official document, ora private letter, to use any expression derogatory to their eharac* ter, or calculated to wound their feelings. Yours very respectfully, “James Buchanan. Rev. Isidor Kalisch, Milwaukee,” Yellow Fever. —The Galveston papers continue reporting deaths from yellow fe ver in that city. The News of the 21st says: “We hear of many new cases, but they are generally quite light attacks, and are easily managed.” The Fever has al so made its appearance in Houston and Richmond.

Sept. 9-wtdtim HAIR RESTORATIVE. Many kinds of Tonic are advertised that we are assured will strengthen the hair and prevent its falling out, but none that we have seen used does all that it promises, save that of Professor O J Wood’s. This we know is good from hav ing tried it, and witnessed in several cases its truly beneficial effects. Dr. Wood was kind enough to send us a couple of bottles, aud after finding that it prevented our hair from falling out, we presented a bottle to a friend who had been bald for at least thirty years; it has restored Ins hair entirely, and it is now as thick and glossy as when he was twenty five. This we say in all sincerity and we shall be glad to have our friends try it for themselves, as we believe it is just what it profess es to be For real worth, Wood’s flair Restora tive is undoubtedly the best preparation now in use for restoring hair on bald heads, changing gray hair on bald h;-ads, changing gray hairs to Itheir original color, and for acosmet cor cure for pim ples, it is fast taking the place of other prepara lions. No toilet no/-a days is complete with out it. If any one should ask us what in our opinion, arrived at by an impartial test, was the best and most honest compound remedy lor preserving and beautifying the hair,and restoring gray hairs to its original color, and the locks to the bald headed we should, without hesitation say, Professor O.
