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. Mortuary. —The number of deaths from yel low fever throughout the city during the twenty four hours ended at noon yesterday, according to the returns of the Boad of Health, amounted to 42. .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 maining thirty working hours of the week, the de crease will be 50. — .

This detachment, consisting of four hundred and fifty recruits, left New York city on the 21st of July, and arrived at Fort Vancover on the 26th of August, without any casualty ex cept the loss of one man. This very rapid trans mission ot troops between points on our vast ter ritory so remote from each other is no less com dable in those having charge of their transporta tion than it is gratifying to the government.

FOR THE TIMES. Yellow Fever—Galveston. The following letter to a gentleman of this city from Judge Thompson—formerly Judge of the Su preme Court of Florida and now a resident of Gal veston. Texas—giving an account of the progress 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 L. A. Thompson. I Alfattit ili WtohltutfoH* j. Washington, Oct, 23.—1 t is understood here that the President of Ban Salvadore has written a letter to the effect that neither that republic nor Honduras and Gautemala have any connection with the stupid manifesto ot Mora- and Martinez, asking European aid against the United States. It is.believed in certain circles here that five hundred to a thousand dlnigrants, armed ala Kansas, will be in Nicaragua before the Ist of December.

George N. Sanders is here, it is said, to have a finger in that pie. It is said that Sir William Gore Ouseley will leave for Central America to-day. The treaties he is instructed to negotiate, dratts ot which ha\e already been prepared, will be entirely satisfactory to our Government. It was desired that our trea 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.

The President lias respited for a fortnight Bar rett, who was to have been executed to-day. 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.

From the Austin Gazette, Oct. 9. 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 terday, for ha ving taken part in the murder ot her husband and Mrs. Clarke. The condemned woman passed the night previ ous to her execution rather comfortably, sleeping 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. At ten o’clock and thirty minutes the drop fell, and after struggling for a few moments the wretch ed woman hung lifeless.

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 pared for the party from New Albany. Governor Willard, of Indiana, has promised to issue a requisition to the Governor of Kentucky for the delivery of the men who captured Bell. Another expedition left for Brandenburg last night, heavily armed, and it is reported that the Kentuckians are armed and concentrating to meet them. Additional by the Persia.

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 tant day, a supply of cotton from the Ottoman em pire second only to that of the United States.— European Times.

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. 11. BASS. Oct 22,1858. d&wtf NOW OPENING.
