COLUMBUS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER M-
Pataula Circuit—4 udgeshlp.
We published a few days since a letter trom
Judge Francis 11. Cone, of Greene County, to Col.
John A. Tucker of Stewart, the Democratic candi
date for the Judgeship in the Pataula Circuit, in
relation to his elegibility. After clearly pro’ mg
Col. Tucker’s degibility for the position, Judge
Cone proceeds to show that the present meumbent
Judge Kiddoo, of the Pataula Circuit, is entitled
to the office until April 1860 and that an election
cannot be legally held until the Ist Monday in
January of that year. He says :
“But there is another question connected with
the matter, which in my opinion renders it wholly
unnecessary to decide the quest-ion whether you
are eligible or not. In looking at the act organizing
the Pataula Circuit (Laws ot 1855 and ’GO, page
21fi) it is provided by the 2nd section of the Act
that an election for a Judge of the Superior Court
f or said District, shall he held on the first Monday
in April next (1856) and that lie shall hold bis ot
lice from his qualification, and for three years alter
the first Monday in October next, (1856)— this
makes the term of service about three years and
six months. .
Now the first section of the third article ot the
Constitution declares as follows “The Judges of
the SuiKjrior Court shall be elected for the term of
four years, and shall continue in office until then
successors shall be elected and qualified.
The Legislature possessed no power whatever to
alter this term of service, the Constitution has
placed it entirely beyond their control. It they
can prescribe the term of service ot a Judge to be
three years and six months, they can prescribe one
year, or any number of years. lam therefore o
opinion that the present incumbent is entitled to
hold his seat for the period of four years, which I
suppose will expire in the month ol April 1860, and
that no election can be legally held for his suc
cessor until the first Monday in January 18 > .
Nothing-can be more clear than the acts of the
Legislature should not be repugnant to the Con
stitution. This instrument having fixed the period
for which the Judge shall be elected to be four
years, the act which limits it to a les's period is
certainly unconstitutional and as a consequence
null and void. But under the Constitution the
Legislature had the power to order the election and
the time when it should take place. Now let us
see if the time mutt be the January preceding the
period at which the encumbents term of office ex
pires.
The act providing for the election of Judges by
the people (acts ol Georgia 1851 52, page 85)
says,
“That in each Judicial Circuit or district in this
State, an election shall be had and held for one
Judge of the Superior Courts of said District or
Circuit in the order following, on the day and time
hereinafter specified, that is to say, for the Eastern.
Middle, Northern. Western, Ocinulgee, Southern.
Chattahoochee, and Cherokee Circuits or Distiicts,
which said election for a Judge of the Superior
Courts, in and for the aforesaid Circuits or Dis
tricts, shall be had and held on the first Monday
in October 1858 and on the first Monday in Octo
ber in every fourth year thereafter.
Tho act which changes the time to January’ at
which the election is to take place reads as fol
lows :
Sec. 1. He it enacted rfc., That from and after
the passage of this act the regular elections of
Judges of the Superior Courts, Attorney General
and Solicitors General shall be held on the first
Monday in January —
Sec. 11. Repeals conflicting laws —(acts 1855
and 56, page 110.)
This last quoted Act fixes the election in
January for Judges, but does not designate
what January. A subsequent Act. found on
the same page wqb the one last cited, does specify,
however, that, the election of the Attorney General
and Solicitors General shall take place on the “first
Mondays in January, immediately preceding the
expiration of the term of office of the present in
cumbent etc.”
Ilow can wc determine the January meant by the
Legislature that the election of Judges should tran
spire ? It is simply by construction that we ascer
tain the Legislative mind. The January preceding
the termination of the office is supposed to be
the January intended by the Legislature —because
it avoids a vacancy which would occur if the elec
tion took place the January after the term of office
expired.
Apply these rules to the Pataula Circuit. The
Legislature fixed the time of expiration of Judge
of the Pataula Circuit in October 1859, and direct
ed that the election for his successor should come
off in January. What January did the Legisla
ture have in view ? Evidently the January prece
ding the Ist of October 1859. If it meant the first
of January 1860, wo would have to conclude that
the Legislature intended that there should be no
election until three months after the they supposed
the term of office expired.
It matters not in this view, that the Legislature
was mistaken in the time the office expired. Our
only object is to ascertain with certainty what Jan
uary was in the Legislative miml in reference to
he Pataula Circuit.

.This is more than that leported yesterday.—
The average of the week thus far is at the rate of
about 85 for each twenty-four hours, which would
give a total of 245. Should this not be exceeded
the week will show a decrease of 63 ; and allowing,
at the rate of 40 in twenty-four hours, for the re

of the yellow fever in Galveston, we are permitted
to publish :
Galveston. Oct., 22, ISSB.
Dear Sir: — I do not think the epidemic has at
all abated, nor do I think it can or will, while the
weather is so favorable to its continuance. We
have had for a week past, frequent showers with
cool Eastern and North-eastern winds. Although
the number of cases may not be so large, or the
deaths so frequent as they were two weeks ago,
yet considering the reduction of the number of
subjects for disease by recoveries and deaths, el
t'omito prleio, as the Spaniards call it, may be
deemed as active and as virulent as ever. Our
physicians are well broken down with fatigue, and
the principal one. Dr. Hurlbut, is now conlined to
his bed. sick.
1 here is scarcely a house in our neighborhood
that has not one or more cases of yellow fever in
it, except our own: and God grant that we may
continue exempt. I
Very truly, I

ty should be first concluded and ratified, in order
that the English treaty might be made to harmo
nize with it, but as delay with us was inevitable, it
was thought best for Sir W r illiam to proceed with
his mission, and secure by negotiation that stereo
typed article in recent treaties —“All other priv l
leges granted to the most favored nations. Uds
would secure perfect equality, and any want of
harmony can he afterwards corrected.

Mr. Buchanan and Cuba.
The Washington correspondent of the New York
Times says that Mr. Buchanan’s policy in endea
voring to purchase Cuba aims at five things, viz:
Ist. To satisfy the bishop and clergy of Spain
that the Catholic Church would not wane, and be
forced to a secondary position on the island in
the event of its transfer to the United States.
2d. To satisfy Christiana that her thirty mil
lions of private property on the island would not
be subject to the principle of agrarianism, but
would be doubled in value by the transfer.
3d. To satisfy the agriculturist that his market
would not be injured, but improved, by having
not only the ports of Cuba, but the whole country
free to his produce.
4th. To satisfy the commercial interests that
free trade would be accorded them here, while
they could discriminate at home according to
their own pleasure.
And, lastly, to satisfy the government that a
transfer of the island is actually necessary to se
cure lasting peace between the two countries.
Trouble for Nothing.
Our friend of the Teler/raph makes a detailed
statement of the various offices, State and Federal
held by persons in the respective Congressional
Districts in this State. He closes his article with
this paragraph, which, like a lady’s Postscript,
contains the gist of the whole article:
“Our readers will perceive that the “Times” and
Fed. Union” have no rightto complain,as far as the
distribution of offices is concerned, their districts
having more than their proportionate share. The
third District is “the poor dog at the frolic.” The
above list may bo inacurate but in the main is cor
rect.”
If we have read the “Times” and the “Federal
Union” understandingly, we have seen no com
plaint in either as to the distribution of offices in
the second or seventh Congressional District, It
is true our friends of the Times did copy an arti
cle from the “Patriot” which complained of the
neglect of South Western Georgia in the distribu
tion of the offices, but the “Times” promptly dis
couraged and disavowed the complaint. The
“Times,” however, said nothing about the second
District being overlooked: and we arc very sure
the “Federal Union” has said nothing about the
claims of the Seventh being disregarded. M r e
think the writer of the Telegraph’s article wanted
to complain for the Third District, and lugged us
in, to give some excuse for and plausibility to, its
dolorous cry of distress. —Federal l ‘nion.

Texan Movement Against Indians.
Reliable and authentic information from Cook
and the adjoining counties of Indian depredations
already committed, and of the hostile attitude of
the Camanches, renegade Kickapoos and Keechis,
has induced the Governor to forward a commis
sion of Captain to Colonel Jim Bourland, with au
thority to raise one hundred men, and to make a
campaign against the enemy. The forays recent
ly made, leave no doubt of the complicity of the
Kickapoos in the war, and authorize the belief
that the Wichita Indians are not altogether right.
Col. Bourland has received orders and instruc
tions which allow him much discretion in his op
erations. and will insure his eventual success.—
He is empowered to reclaim stolen property
wherever found—by force, if necessary. He is
also directed to pursue and chastise unfriendly
Indians without regard to nationality or lines.
Execution of a Woman.
Mrs. Twiggs was executed at Danville, Pa. yes

husband and Mrs. Clarke.
The condemned woman passed the night previ

with her children in her arms. She bade farewell
to her brother and children on the following morn
ing, and. after devotional exercises in her room,
was taken to the scaffold at a quarter past 10
o’clock, leaning on the arm of one of her spiritual
advisers.
A chapter having been read, and an impressive
Prayer offered up on the scaffold, Mrs. Twiggs
spoke for six or eight minutes, protesting her In
nocence, declaring her readiness to die and her
trust in a just Judge, only regretting to leave be
hind her two orphan children. She was much af
fected throughout. The solemnity of the scene
was made more impressive by her groans and sobs.
Even after the cap was drawn over her face, she
appealed to God in the most earnest manner, and
she asserted her innocence.

Louisville, Kv.. Oct. 20. —Horace Bell, who
released his lather and brother from the Bl'aden
burg jail in Kentucky, some time in July last, (the
father and son were committed to jail on the
charge of aiding in the escape of slaves,) was ta
ken on Saturday from the Fair grounds at New
Albany, in Indiana, without a warrant, and car
ried to Kentucky by police officers from Louis
ville, Ky. When it became known that Bell was
taken off, the citizens of New Albany became
greatly excited—the fire bells were wrung—a large
mass meeting was held—and about one hundred
excited people chartered a boat with the avowed
purpose of rescuing Bell.
An express had been sent from Louisville to
Bradenburg, warning the people there to be pre

Cotton Cultivation in Turkey. —A parcel
of American seed, forwarded by the Manchester
Cotton Supply Association to Turkey, has been
turned to good account. The seed was sown, and
the product looks very far superior to any cotton
previously grown in the Levant. It is estimated
that 50,000 bales of the superior article will be ex
ported during the present year, and it will be e*x
tensively planted next year. The area of cotton
soil is very extensive. The writer says the dis
tricts of the Dardanelles, Salonica, Yolo, Cavalho,
the Isles of the Archipelago’, the coasts of Asia
Minor, and especially along the Syrian coast, will
yield large and excellent supplies of cotton for the
future, if proper means are taken to promote its
culture. Some of the best districts for cotton are
also very favorably situated, of comparatively
easy access, and well supplied with labor. Even
in the vicinity of Constantinople there is abun
dance of land suited to the growth of this precious
commodity. The writer who supplies the infor
mation, adds that from personal observation and
the information he has received, he is confident
that ive may look forward to having, at no dis

BARBOUR COUNTY LANDS
FOR SALE.
HAVING purchased land in the West, I now
offer for sale both my plantations, lyhm on
the North Cowikee Creek. The place on which
I now reside, known as the Barnalvey Plantation
contains 2,475 acres, with a large proportion of
fresh and Hammock Jand. Th re are on the plain
tation 1,400 acres cleared, and in a fine state of
cultivation, thoroughly drained, with a large num
ber of well located ditches. The dwelling j 9
commodious, having 6 large rooms, neatly finish
ed, and is situated within the corporate limits of
Glennville, convenient to the Colleges and
Churches. The out houses are in good repair and
sufficient for the accommodation of 100 negroes.
On th s place, are two new gin houses, one of
which is propelled by water power, to which is
attached a grist mill, all in good order.
Lying broadside this place is my other planta
tion, recently owned by Col. W. fl- Owens, con
taining 901 acres. ‘The dwelling, out houses, gi n
house and screw are all new and well finished
and equally convenient to Glennville. Being de
termined to sell, 1 would not object to dividing
my lands to suit purchasers. To those acquainted
with these lands 1 need not say more—to those at
a distance, I would say that they cannot be ex
celled in point of health or productiveness in east
Alabama.
GJennvilJe is noted for the morality, intelligence
and refinement of its citizens. It is situated 12
miles from the Mobile and Girard Railroad, fi
miles from Jernigan, a steamboat landing on thy
Chattahooehie river, and 16 miles from Eufaula,
to which point the South-Western Railroad ot
Georgia will soon be completed. For further par
ticulars, address me at Glennville, Alabama.
P.S. As 1 am axioiu’io carry out my plans west
I propose if 1 can find a purchaser for ihe above
named lands, to let them go at the low price ot
twelve dollars and a half per acre, cash.
And if not sold before Saturday the twentieth of
November next, 1 will have them divided into
two or more tracts by a survey, and ofler them
on that day at public outcry to tho highest bidder.
Land buyers might do well to examine the
lands before buying elsewhere.
