THE DAILY TIMES. OBTOBER 7. yy Onr readers will not forget that we re* ceive telegraphic dispatches every day at an im mense expense, and that they will always be loupd in another column. Whatever ot interest transpires throughout the United States, is pub lished in this Journal simultaneously with the pub lication in New York. The Enquirer’s Reply- We reciprocate the compliment of inge nuity paid us by the Enquirer, but cannot perceive what bearing our profession can have upon tie question on which we are at issue. An attempt in this way to enlist prejudice against the argu ments of an opponent, is a fashionable and approv ed resource of the advocate of a weak position. Such an object, however, we do not charge upon our cotemporary. We are invited to consider the following hypothetical propositions : “if the Constitution originally forbade the mem bers of the Legislature from electing one of their own number a Judge, (as the Times admits it did) could those members by their own act, without an amendment of the Constitution, transfer to an other tribunal the power to elect one of themselves to the Bench? ft they were authorized by the Constitution to elect the Judges, but forbidden by it to choose one of themselves, could they evade this Constitutional restraint by passing a law authoriz ing the Governor to make the appointment and empowering him to choose one of themselves ? and if they could not thus make a “cat’s paw’ ot tne Governor, could they of the people ?” The Enquirer says, “were we arguing this question as a lawyer, we might rest the case upon this rejoinder to our neighbor’s plea.” T his takes all the edge from the compliment. If it had said ‘were we arguing this question as a sophist,” it would have been more intelligible, and would have saved the profession a very ungenerous thrust. We do not understand how it escaped the sagacity of our neighbor that each of the above proposi tions involves ap> titio principii. In order to answer the first question in the negative—the position of the Enquirer—it is necessary to assume that the disqualification of a Senator or Rep resentative to bo elected to any office of emolu ment, in Art. I, Sec. II of the Constitution, \s gen eral, and not special, or having reference to the power of appointment by the Legislature. This js the question in controversy between us, and this he cavalierly takes for granted. It is obvious that, unless the restriction be taken in that sense, there can be no difficulty in maintaining the affirmative side of the question propounded by our neighbor “to candid, reasoning men.” The prohibitions in the Constitution are the only limitation upon the power of the Legislature; for Sec. 22 Art. I, declares that “The General As sembly shall have power to make all laws and ordinances which they shall deem necessary and proper for the good of the State, which shall not be repugnant to this Constitution.” If, thererore, ’ it is not uucomtitutioml, “the Legislatum can, by its own act, without an amendment of the Constitution, transfer to another tribunal,the pow er, and elect one of its own members to the Bench.’ So much for the argument of our neighbor, “as a lawyer.” The remainder of his article is devoted to the consideration of the ‘‘manifest meaning” of the Constitution. We will not go over the ground again, and refer to our previous article for a reply thereto. We are indebted to him for Webster’s meaning of the word “eligible,” but he within the gilt of the Legislature* Such, we have contended and still insist, is the natural and proper construction of the sentence. P. S.—Since writing the above, we have read an article in the Enquirer of yesterday, over the signature of “Smith,” commenting on our position- The views of the writer, we think, are fully met by the considerations we have already advanced. He gives us a position we have never assumed, when he says we have discovered a w r ay by which “one may be a member of the Legislature and at the same time Judge of the Superior Courts of the State of Georgia. We expressly guarded our selves against this inference in our last article. Corrections. Many inaccurate statements, says the Union, are going the rounds of the papers in relation to astronomical matters which show, not only the ignorance of the writers, but the carelessness of the publishers who insert them without due consider ation. In numerous papers we have observed statements that the brilliant comet now visible in the Northwest (known as Donati’s) is the same which appeared in 1264 and again in 1556. This is not correct, as there is a wide dissimilarity be tween their paths. The comet of 1556, known among astronomers as Charles V’s, is supposed to be identical with Tuttle’s’ third comet of 1858, which can now be seen only with the assistance of a telescope. Its period was about 292 years, but owing to the retardations in its motion, caused by the attraction of the larger planets, it is now ten years behind its time. When the comet which is now so conspicuous was first discovered, its or bit was found to be so near that of the first comet of 1827 that the two bodies were surmised to be identical, and to return every thirty-one years.— This supposition, however, does not seem destined to be confirmed. The accurato calculations of its elements, which have been published, combine to render it almost certain that several thousand years must£elaps6 before it again visits our system.” We also observe a paragragh in some of the pa pers to the effect that a few evenings since “the three planets, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus, appeared in range on the western sky.” This is somewhat incredible, since while Mars and Venus are in the Southwest shortly after sunset, Jupiter is then be low the horizon, and does not rise until about ten o’clock, alter which it may be seen in the North east. Venus is now in Scorpio, Mars is just en tering Capricorn, and Jupiter is in Gemini. The American Party—lts Record. We do not intend further to discuss the question ofhhe fair record of the -4mericau # party with the Macon Journal and Messenger. We thought its boast about the “proud position” of its party be fore the country simply a figure of speech of the editor and are unwilling now to disturb his happy frame of mind by the statement of facts familiar to every school-boy. The name of Hon. Andrew J. Miller is cited with others as leaders of the Amer ican organization. This may be, notwithstand ing his reluctance to become a member. If our neighbor will turn to the Journal of the State Senate, ne will find the name” of Andrew J. Miller recorded in favor of the resolu tion, which says| “opposition to the principles o* the Kansas bill is hostility to the constitutional right, of the South.” As he w, 3 . leader, we do not presume were he living, he would now de nounce thelbtll as a “aham” or"larce.” Thi how •ver, has been the case with the other Americans who voted with him and it is pronounced “con* sistency.” We are satisfied—we will not repeat our argument—or make any illusion to the 12th section or other platforms made by the American The Washington Monument. During the three years,says the Washington Unior, that the know-nothings had the control of this work, which they obtained in such a disgraceful manner as to excite the indignation of the whole country, the monument was raised four feet! And this was only done by using stones which had been presented previous to their usurpation, and by usmg marble which had been rejected by the old board as imperfect. At length, in very shame, they abandoned an undertaking which it was evi dent they had no power to carry on, and there is good reason to believe that in more competent and trusworthy hands that structure will attain the proud elevation that was originally designed.— The attempt to pervert a great national work to mere party ends has resulted as all such attempts should result, in mortification and disgrace. In the hands of the new board of managers the pub lic may feel confident that the interests of the Monument will be sedulously attended to, and that the free-will offerings of a patriotic people will be applied in accordance with the wishes of the donors. Hon. W* L* Yancey. The Richmond Enquirer, says: Unity, harmony and concert of action are the only means of obtaining that justice and right we all so much desire , and this great end can never be gained by assaulting, suspecting and decrying such men as William J.. Yancey for great zeal in behalf of Southern rights. Virginia may not at present be prepared to go as far as Mr. Yan cey and his friends, but she is unwilling to see Southern men hunted down for any efforts promp ted by an ardent devotion to her cause and the cause ofher sister Southern States. We regret to learn from our cerrespondent that “Col. Yancey is at present at the Warm Springs, in Georgia, suffering from a severe attack of neu ralgia.” __ _ More About the Cable. (3|The Electricians, who have -been engaged day and night in examining the cause of the cessation ol signals through the submarine telegraph, have come to the conclusion that the defect is a loss of insulation about 270 miles (along the cable) from Valentia. This, calculating the amount of slack cable paid out during the later days of the submerging operations, would place the fault 220 statute miles from shore, or somewhere upon the mountain range .which divides the depths of the Atlantic from the comparatively shallow water leading from the Irish coast- Hon. A. H. Colquitt. We copy the following from the Atlanta Daily Intelligencer-’ “We are glad to see that this gentleman has been nominated by the Democrat** ic party ot Baker County, to fill the vacancy,oc casioned by the cutting off the residence of the old Senator, Mr. Cumbie, into the new county of Mitchell. It is gratifying that such a man as Mr Colquitt, will occupy a seat in the Senate during the approaching session. Already versed in the Legislation of Congress, by a membership of several years in the House of Representatives, he will be able to bring all the experience acquired in that field to bear upon the measures suitable and necessary for the good of the State of Geor nf such raen £3^Mrs. Cox, aged 104, died in Albany, N Y last week.

The accompaniment is in part orches* tral and part upon the piano. It is considered a great and striking novelty. Mrs. LeVert. To those of our citizens'who know that Mrs. LeVert is a native of Augusta. Ga., the following tribute will be read with much pleasure—to those who know her as a highly accomplished and talented lady, and devoted and efficient friend to the cause of Mount Vernon, we feel that they will be delighted at its perusal. We copy from the Washington City States: A Noble Woman.— lt is seldom indeed that we see a woman who has mixed so much with the world, and is so well known in fashionable life, as is the case with Madame LeVert, who has so good and noble a heart. Of her efforts towards the purchase of Mount Vernon, a corres pondent says: Of the untiring energy of Madame Le- Vert too much cannot be said; her zeal knows no diminution, her activity no re pose. Her persuasive voice reaches all classes jmd ages. The Military hear it, and pay their tribute to the hero who led their fathers to victory. Her spirit ente.s where woman’s presence is denied, and in the sanctum of the Lodge, the Masons pour out their golden offering to their ven erated Brother; Firemen bring to her trea sury testimonials of love and gratitude; School Children catch |her enthusiasm, ana send their hearty contributions to Mount Vernon, while Planters from the interior turn no deaf ear to her appeals. To a woman possessing the nobleness ot soul belonging to Madame Levert, this beautiful co-operation in her patriotic la bors must yield a heartfelt gratification that no eulogy could enhance; and history will not fail to record that her time and taients were nobly consecrated to a glorious cause. The Society Islands. Important news reaches us from the So ciety Islands 4 dated at Riatea and Tahaa, ou the 9th of June, and at Tahiti on the 12th of July. The governors of the first named islands—who have the power of appointing or dethroning the King—had, it appears, taken the supreme power from Tamatoa V. son of Queen Pomare, of Ta hiti, who was elected chief magistrate about a year ago. The ex-King then decided to return to the home of his mother, Pomare, and thus the islands were leit without a ru ler. In this emergency the governors of fered Cousul Owen, of the United States, to surrender the Islands of Tahaa and Ria tea to our government, and handed him of ficial letters to that effect for transmission to Washington. This movement gave great offence to the representatives of England and France, who incited a sort of revolution against the governors. In this state of affairs the French war brig Hydro graphe arrived at Raiatea, and her com mander took Mr. Thomas Croft and Mr. Jordan, American citizens, into custody, and conveyed them to Tahiti on account of their annexation proclivities. Logical Baggage Master. The post of Baggage Master on a rail road train is not an enviable one. There is often a wide difference between the company’s regulations and the passenger’s opinion of what articles, and what amount of them, properly comes under the detiom nation of baggage; and this difference of opinion frequently subjects the unlucky official of the trunks and band box depart ment to animated discussions with a cer tain class ot the public. We heard lately an ancedote of “George,” the affable B. M. on Capt. Cobb’s train on the Virginia and Tennesse road, which is too good to be lost: A passenger presented himself at a way station on the road, with two trunks and a saddle for which he requested checks. The baggage master promptly checked the trunks; but demanded the extra charge of twenty five cents for the saddle. To this the passenger demurred, and losing his temper peremptorily asked — “Will you check my baggage, sir?’’ “Are you a horse?” quietly inquired George. “What do you mean, sir?” exclaimed the irate traveler. “You claim to have this saddle checked as baggage?” “Certainly—it is baggage,”.positively re turned the passenger. “Well,” said the “by the company’s regulations nothing but wearing apparel is admitted to be baggage; and if this saddle is your wearing apparel of course you must be a horse. Now, sir, just allow me to strap it on your back, and it shall go to the end of the’road without any extra charge whatever.” The traveler paid his quarter and offered George his hat.—Bristol News. John Minor Botts. There are strong indications that the Know Nothings will nominate John Minor Botts of Virginia for the Presidency in 1860 He will run on a Native American, Protec tive tariff, and Internal Improvement plat form. Botts favors a National Bank, but IJIS put ly mm m/. .-- - r _ * 1 policy until after the election. Of course no one acquainted with the political field imagines Botts can carry a majority of the electoral votes, but he is undoubtedly the most available man for the Know Nothings, since Crittenden refuses to be run.— Southern Argus. The California Congressioai Eleo tion. —In order that no one may be misled in regard to the vote lately given in Cali fornia for McKibben and Stewart for Congress, which has been paraded in the Press , we state that the election, so far as they were concerned, was illegal, the Leg islature having, by an act at its last ses sion, changed the time from what it had been, and postponed it until a later day. That that body had a legal and constitu tional right to make the change there can be no question; and that the regular Democ racy took this view of the case, is apparent from the fact that they made no nomina tions and run no candidates for Congress. Had they done so, there is no doubt that their nominees would have received a large majority of the popular vote, as did their candidates for Judge and Comptroller. Be ing law-abiding and law-sustaining citizens, they chose to postpone their action until the period fixed by law. We should not be surprised, however, if McKibben and Stew art should come into the next Congress, and claim seats under an election thus clear ly illegal-nor should we be surpiised either, if every Black Republican in Congress shall vote for their admission in order to illus- * trate the beautiful workings of the “High er Law” doctrine, as enunciated by Will iam H. Seward.— Pennsylvanian. Direct Steam Communication Between Virginia and France. We have been favored with the perusal of a letter from Mr. E. Lacouture, the en ergetic and enlightened originator of the proposed line of steamers between Norfolk and St. Nazaire, in France. Mr. L. is now in France, but expects to return to Virginia during the next month. He has strength ened the company by important additions and happy combinations—in a word, he has labored energetically in a work which he has so long and perseveringly prose cuted. He writes that france is all ready, and that it only remains for Virginia to do her part, so that the enterprise may go into instant practical operation. He had just returned from a tour through Bretagne, and from a visit to the magnificent port of St. Nazaire, which is to be the port of con nection with the lines from Norfolk, That port is anew but wonderful creation, on which have been brought to bear all the im provements that science has discovered.— The railroad encircles the docks with a girdle of rails, and cargoes of vessels can be easily discharged into cars which will directly transport the merchandize to all j points of Europe. Railroads are finished even to the frontiers, and are in immediate connection with all those of the neighbor ing nations. In the same manner merchan dize destined for the United States, may be received at St. Nazaire, which is nearer to them, by forty eight hours, than any other port or the British channel.— ‘Richmond Enquirer, Telegraphic.

The letter, after pointing out that the proper channel for the petition was through the Govenor General, says that it was nev ertheless on account of the eminence of the parties signing the petition laid before the Queen, who received it very graciously, though she was under the necessity of de clining the request that the Prince of Wales, or some other member of the Royal family, should perform the service requested. marriedT” In this city at the residence of Dr. S.

Sept. 9—w&dfim 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 ued does all that it promises, save that of Professor 0 J Wood’s. This we know is good from hav ing tried it, and witnessed in several eases its truly beneficial effects. Dr. Wood was kind enough to send us a couple of bottles, and 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 his hair entirely, and it i9 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 i3 just what it profess es to be For real worth, Wood’s Hair Restora tive is undoubtedly the best preparation now in use for restoring hair on bald heeds, changing gray hair on bald hads, changing gray hairs to their original color, and for acosmet cor cure for pim ples, it i9 fast taking the place of other prepara tions. No toi'et now-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 residing gray hairs to its original color, and the locks to the bald headed we should, without hesitation say, Professor O.
