COLUMBUS, TUESDAY, NOYEMBER 2. Dally During the Session. We send the Daily issue of our paper to Mem bers of the Legislature who take the Weekly, The Daily will be supplied for SI.OO, and will contain the proceedings of the Legislature and on dits at the Mr. Ellis, one of the proprietors, will be at Milledgcville the first part of the Sess ion and Mr. Colquitt will be found in the Senate Chamber, who will see that the Daily is supplied to subscribers. The Season. Summer has passed with its dust and heat and we are fast bordering on to old winter. The sighing wind no longer produces a grateful, cooling sensa tion, but is invigorating and will soon become chilling in its effects. These are the saddest days of the year. The sun hides itself beneath hazy clouds —the trees are loosing leaf by leaf thoir graceful foliage and all nature is being robbed of its holiday aypearance. While the winter is looked forward to with vis ions of gayety and cosy, comfortable fireside en joyments at home by many ; there are those who dread its approach as a season of destitution and distress. Then, in the midst of our own comfort and happiness, let Christian charity and benevo lence work deep into our hearts, and let there be no Levites of wealth and pride to pass by unheed ed the cries of suffering humanity. TheHFalr at Richmond, Va., a Failure. “It is a fact which cannot he denied/’ says the Richmond South of Wednesday last, “that the grand National Fair now in progress is a lamenta ble and unmitigated failure. The exhibition of machinery and stock is inferior to any previously made in this city. Melancholy looking people wander about the desolate grounds, with faces which indicate anything but approbation. In con sideration of the sum of fifty cents, the curious are allowed to enjoy the luxury of inhaling an atmosphere laden with dust, and to exercise their ingenuity in finding objects to examine. This ex orbitant charge,"of which wo have already, spoken in terms of just reprobation, has operated to the exclusion of many who would have visited the grounds had the admittance fee been at its former standard. But, while it has injured the National Fair, it has benefitted a large class of the commu nity who are entitled to congratulation on the re sult. Very many have absented themselves on this account, and by so doing have economized time, money and comfort, to say nothing of hav ing avoided a bore of the first magnitude. The amiable visage of Barnum'is alone wanting at’the gate-way to give the last touch to the affair. Is it not possible to secure the services of thatjmfcr familiaa\)f the humbug generation ? or, if it he too late for his actual, bodily presence to he obtained, cannot an ofligy of the greai/himble-riggerbe erec ted over the main entrance? It only lacks this last embellishment, and we respectfully submit that the omission should at once be “supplied.” Ron. John H. Lnderwood. The Atlanta Intelligencer of the 30th ult., upon the authority of au intimate friend of the above named gentleman, contradicts the rumor of his in tention to resign the Speaker’s Chair at the ap proaching session of our Legislature. As the name of Hou. John Milledge, of Augusta, has been repeatedly mentioned in connexion with the con templated vacancy, that gentleman has enjoyed a fair opportunity to ascertain the regard in which he is held by the Democratic press. _ . Mr. Breckinridge’s Letter. In another column, we give the letter of Mr. Breckinridge to the Illinois Committee in relation to the re-election of Mr. Douglas. It is cautiously worded and only prefers the election of Mr. Doug las to a Republican. ff&S* A western publisher gave notice that he intended to spend fifty dollars for the purpose of getting up anew head for the paper. Next day one of his subscribers sent him the following note: “Don’t do it. Better keep the money and buy a ‘new head’ for the editor.” The Richmond Enquiror, comes to us much en larged and improved in its general appearance.— The Enquirer is now in the 54th year of its exis tence. Mi. Walsh, in one of his late letters to the Jour nal of Commerce, says: “We may suppose the Moßlem pilgrimago to Mecca and Medina to boa prodigious physical as well as moral nuisance. Of the 200,000 devotees of the present year, a third at least have perished by maladies, not epidemic, but simply incident to their observances and modes of living during their sojourn in the holy cities. The appearance of such of the survivors as returned by Egypt is described in letters from Alexandria as wretched in the extreme.” Wm. F. Samford.—The Enquirer contains the able letter of the lion. Wm. F. Sam ford of Alabama to Hon. Henry W. Hilliard. It is the best argument we have ever read in favor of ie-opening the African Slave Trade. Our views on this subject differ with the writer’s, but we cannot withhold an expression of our admira tion at the ability with which he discusses the question. Death of a U. S. Officer.— The Charleston papers record the death of Geo. S. Wheeler, of the U. S. Revenue Service, cutter Wm. Aiken, in that city, Tuesday last. Lieut. W. was a native of Pennsylvania, and was attached to the late Japan Expedition. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald says that the Hon. John E. Ward will probably be offered the Mission to China, which is now vacant. It i9 ensy enough to prove anything when you have willing witnesses. An advocate in Balti more recently opened for the defence by; stating, W e expect to prove, may it please the Court, that our client was not present when the murder was committed, but was in a distant part of the city If the prosecution proves his presence, we shall prove that the deed was done in self-defence and after gross provocation.” That defence should be sufficient. Chess—Morfhy and Staunton. —A letter has been published from Mr. Morphy to Mr. Staunton, in which the young Americau repeats his challenge to the English champion. “ Permit me,” he says —anticipating certain objections—“to repeat what I have invariably declared in every chess community I have had the honor ot entering, that j lam not a professional player—thnt I uever j wished to make any skill I possess the means of pe- j I euniary advancement —and that my earnest desire j • is never to play for any stake but honor. My I friends in New Orleans, however, subscribed a | certain sum, without any countenance from me, ’ and that sum has been ready for you to meet a con siderable time past. Since my arrival in Paris I have been assured by numberous gentlemen that the value of those stakes can he immediately in creased to any amount; but, for myself personal ly, reputation is the only incentive I recognize.— The matter of seconds cannot, certainly, offer any difficulty. I had the pleasure of being first received in London by the St. George’s Chess Club, of which you are so distinguished a member; and of those gentlemen I request the honor of appoint ing my second, to whom I givo full authority in settling all preliminaries.” Office of the Board of Health, Mobile, Oct. 29. The Board reports 12 interments from yellow fever for the twenty-four hours ending at six o’clock this day. D. Herndon, M. D. Secretary, New Orleans, Oct. 29.—There were only tweuly-one interments from yellow fever in this city for the twenty-four hours ending at noon yes terday, according to the returns of the Board of Health. This is a gratifying decrease (Picayune.) Washington, Oct. 27, 1858. There is no doubt but that Admiral Kellett has instructions from the British government to pre vent filibustering expeditions into Central Ameri ca. The indications are that the President will shortly issue a proclamation with a view to prevent the violalion of the neutrality laws. The Secretary of War has received a despatch from Gen. Twiggs, confirming the heretofore pub lished accounts of a fight with the Indians in Tex as, and will take immediate measures for increas ing the militity force in that State. The California mails via Tehuantepec wero to have left New Orleans to-day. The company ex pect to deliver them in San Francisco in sixteen days. The General Superintendent of the Pacific wagon roads says the entire road from El Paso to Fort Yuma has been greatly improved and short ened during the past season ; that the road through Nebraska is probably completed, and that the Fort Kearney, South Pass and Honey Lake road is fin ished from tho South Pass to City Rooks. Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun. Washington, Oct. 27.—The despatch from Washington concerning cabinet changes, Ac., is utterly without foundation. No change is in con templation. Neither is it true that Mr. Clay has been recalled from Peru. Some other Washington rumors sent through by agents and correspondents over tho telegraph wires of late, are also erroneous. The President’s views and intentions on the subject of the tariff, tho Pacific Railroad, and Mexico, Central Ameri ca, Ac., arc not. to be looked for in the daily “des patches” from this city. The British government has given formal notice to the United States government that they will in ! terfere to prevent any further filibustering enter- I prises from the United States upon Nicaragua, j Costa Rica or any of the Central America States. ! This is no empty declaration, but a positivo and grave determination. To enforce it, the British government are about to send a strong fleet to the port of Greytown, and also to San Juan del Sur.— It is probable that some enterprises, of a character similar to that imputed to General Walker, are on foot, in regard to Nicaragua. Some mysterious movements from New York iu the direction of Nicaragua can only be accounted for on this sup position; and hence the interference of Great-Britan at this time. lon. The Indian War In Oregon—Battle at Four Lakes and Defeat of the Savages, Etc. St. Louis, Oct. 27, 1858. The overland mail, which arrived last night, brought letters to October 1, but no San Francisco papers. The Los Angeles Vineyard, of the 2d inst. i3, however, to hand. It contains an account of a battle at Four Lakes, Oregon, on the Ist of Sept., between three hundred troops, under Col. Wright, and five hundred Indians, in which the Indians were completely routed, with the loss of seventeen killed and many vrounded. The troops sustained no loss whatever. The Oregon State Legislature met at Salem on the 13th of September, and adjourned sine die, thus giving up the State organization until the regular admission of Oregon into the Union by Congress. Delazon Smith and L. F. Grover, who have been elected to represent the State in the United States Senate, were about leaving Portland for Washing ton. Several attempts had been made to set fire to Holland. There is no California news of interest in tho Los Angeles paper. The Minnesota Election. Chicago, Oct. 27, 1858. The St. Paul (Minnesota) Pioneer, of the 25th inst., states that definite returns from every part of the State, excepting one district, indicate that the Legislature will stand thus :—House, demo crats, thirty-nine; republicans, forty. Senate, re publicans, fifteen; democrats, twenty-one. California Election. Official returns of the California election, held Sept. 7th, areas follows : The entire vote cast for Judge of Sup. Ct. 80,797 For J, C. Baldwin (dem.) .... 44,597 For J. Curry (anti-Lecomp. A rop.) 36,200 Majority for Baldwin 8,397 The entire vote cast for Comptroller 79,518 For A. R. Meloney 44,280 For I. H. Dawley 27,761 For L. C. Gunn 7,477 Majority for Meloney over Dawley . 16,519 Majority for Meloney over Gunn. . 36,803 Majority for Meloney over both . . 9,042 From the counties of Colusa, Marin, Placer, San Bernardino, San Diego, Tulare and Yolo, no returns have been made to the office of Secretary of State, of the votes cast for Members of Con gress, owing it is presumed, to the refusal of the Boards of Canvassers of these counties to recog nize the legality thereof. This vote, however, is, with the exception of that cast iu Placerjind Yolo, unimportant: and in order to arrive at an approxi mation of the entire vote of the State for Mem bers of Congress, we here include the returns of these counties for Comptroller (Dawley and Gunn:) The vote cost for J. C; McKibben, i as per table 32,09S The vote cast for Dawley in Coun ties not returned 1,577 Total for J. C.

The entire vote cast forjudge of the Su preme Court in 1858 80,797 The Mcarauga Question—A War Cloud. It will be seen by extracts which we give else where from the French and English journals, that a strong feeling of excitement has been awakened iu France and England by informrtion received there, to the eflcct that theUuited States had sent vessels of war to the waters of Nicarauga, to co erce the government of that republic into a refusal to ratify the contract made with Mr. Felix Belly for the opening of an interoceanie ship canal.— That intelligence was also aggravated by a report of anew fillibustering expedition being fitted out by Walker against the States of Central America. While entire faith seems not to have been given to this intelligence, the papers, nevertheless, improve the occasion to read lectures to the United States upon its national characteristic of annexation, and to notify us that we need not take any open or se cret means to possess ourselves of the Isthmus of Nicaragua, inasmuch as the maritime nations of Europe would not for a moment tolerate such an assumption on our part. In connection with this subject we also find in the French papers translations of the letters that passed between our Minister, Mr. Lamar, and the Nicaraguan Minister of Foreign Affairs, in relation to the Belly contract. We givo translations of these documents. In the reply of Senor Cortez, the Nicaraguan Minister, it is declared that that government regards as null and void the two con tracts made with American citizens for opening the Isthmus route, and that the mission of Gen. Jerez to Washington was to cause the principle of justice to prevail with our government. We arc likewise informed that Mr. Lamar has demanded from Nicaragua tho sum of six millions of dolla rs, as indemnification for loss of American lives and property during the fillibuster war; that he has formulated against Costa Rica a further de mand of two millions on the like ground, and that he purposes making similar demands upon Salva dor and Guatemala. If t here be truth in these statements and mean ing in these threats,the sooner we brush up our mil itary and naval resources the better. We must either withdraw our pretensions or prepare to sus tain them.—-A 7 . Y. Herald. Central American Affairs. Washington, Oct. 30.—Private intelligence re ceived here states that Gen. Lamar has succeeded in getting suitable acknowledgements from Costa Rica, in relation to vexed questions which have been pending. The steamers which were destined for Lake Ni caragua have gone up the river unmolested. Washington, Oct. 30.-—The usual proclama tion of the President against fillibusters will be promptly issued. Marez presented an apology to Cass from Martinez for offensive allegations against the Union, in the late manifesto. Our government have no controversy with France in re lation to Central America, but in relation to Eng land, that subject is of a delicate nature. The Kentucky and Indiana Imbroglio. Louisville, Oct. 30.—The difficulty growing out of the arrest of Horace Bell, at New Albany, Ind., has been amicably settled, by the assurance on the part of the Bradenbergers, that Bell could be released on bail. Nicaragua—Gen. Lamar. Tho French and English papers have been dis cussing, in a tone not very friendly or complimen tary to this country, the present state of our re lations with Nicaragua. The Paris Presse of the 7h October says— We received yesterday, under the seal of tho Consulate General of Nmaragua, a document pre senting a rough view of the facts that have just transpired in Nicaragua. We think it our duty to publish the text of the correspondence W’hich took place between Mr. Mirabeau Lamar, United States Minister and General Martinez. These two docu ments have been sent to Paris by the ‘governments of Nicaragua and of Costa Rica. They demon strate that the pretensions attributed to Mr. La mar are far from having the violent and imperative character which the London correspondence at tributed to them. Still that does not prevent us from considering that these pretensions deserve in all respects, the attention and surveillance of European governments, which ought no longer to lose sight of the extra diplomatic projects of the American filibusters. The Presse then publishes the following corres pondence: The United States Minister to the Nicaraguan Min ister of Foreign Affa ire. United States Legation, Managua, ) August 11, 1858. j To His Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Nicaragua: Sir —Assuming annexed [publication made by the New York Herald of the 18th June last is the true and authentic copy of a contract concluded between Nicaragua and Mr. Felix Bel ly, I must inform you that any public or private arrangement of your government with that gen tleman will not be recognized or assented to, so far as it contravenes the just rights which American citizens have acquired in this country, and that the liberal policy flowing from the treaty of Nov ember last, in respect to the transit across the Isth mus, will be constantly sustained. The interests of Nicaragua, as well as those of all commercial nations, evidently demand the maintenance of that policy. As to the moasures that my government may deem it proper to take in this matter, I can not say. The contract of Mr. Belly is followed by a docu ment signed by President Mora, of Costa Rica, and President Martinez, of Nicaragua, who appeal to the European Powers against the United States of America. I regret (“admit,” in tho French translation) that these two chief magistrates should have seen fit to perform an act of distrust towards my government, and towards its agents in this country. But the gratuitous recriminations contained in that document, and the degree of at tention to their insolent character, are matters for the consideration of my government, not for mine. I have the honor to be vour very obedient serv’t MIRABEAU LAMAR. The Nicaraguan Minister of Foreign Affairs to Mr. Lamar. National Palace, Managua, ) October 12, 1858. j The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Nicaragua to “His Excellency Mr. Mirabeau Lamar, Resident Minister of the United States to Nicargua: Mr. Minister—His Excellency the General Pre sident of the republic has taken note of the senti ments expressed in your communication of the 11th inst., and has directed me to answer you in the following terms: The principle of the policy of Nicaragua, inter nal as well as external, is justice; and that justice my government stipulates for all, desires for all and requires for the people whose destinies are confided to it. Consequently, it cannot in any way alienate the exercise of its rights. On the contrary, it is determined to maintain inviolablv those rights that belong to the republic, with all the dignity that it possesses, and with all the means at its disposal. From this his Excellency the United States Minister ought to conclude that iny government has never thought and does not think to-day of interfering with the rights of the citizens ot North America, whose republic is at peace with ours; and to give him a pledge of the good relations which ought to subsist between these two republics, I must inform him that the treaties made with his countrymen in [reference to the transit are null and void—that of Stebius, because the transit has not been opened within the time stipulated, the company being notorious ly unable to fulfil its engagements. And as that company has raised some litigious questions, my government has sent General Jerez to Washing ton that he may there obtain the triumph of that principle of justice from which my government has never departed.* I have the honor to be your Excellency’s very humble servant. • ROSALIO CORTEZ, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Nicaragua. Telegraphic. REPORTED FOR THE COLUMBUS TIMES. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMSHIP INDIAN. Quebec, Nov. 1. —The Steamship Indian has arrived with Liverpool dates to the 20th ult. Liverpool Cotton Market. —Hales of three days 19,000 bales, of which speculators and expor- i tern took 1000 bales each. The market closing quietbut steady. Previous quotations were barely maintained. London Money Market.—Consols had slight ly declined, and were quoted at 28% to 98%. From Costa Rica. We have the Cronica de Costa Rica to Sept. 25. The National Congress was in session, and the pa pers are filled with the usual annual documents. The report of the Minister of the Treasury, Ac., states that the revenue last year amounted to $566,- 010, besides a forced loan of $49,212, which is a falling off of $212,227 from the revenue of 1856. The national debt now amounts to $300,000. Com plete peace lias reigned since the expulsion of the filibusters. The Minister says that thus far, the revenue of 1858 shows an improvement. The ar my has been put upon a very firm footing in ex pectation of another filibuster invasion ; and a de cree has been approved declaring, that all future invaders shall be treated as pirates, i. e., shot as soon as caught. The Minister of Foreign Rela tions pays a high eulogium to Com. Paulding,and says that the relations of the United States arc sat isfactory. A contract has been made with a French company to lay a submarine cable. The contract was signed Aug. 6, the day after the land ing at Trinity Bay, There had been recently many audacious rob beries in Costa Rica. Gen. Mirabeau B. Lamar, the American Minis ter, was formally received by the President of Cos ta Rica on the 13th Sept. The Cronica says eve ry facility w ill be given to him to treat if he so de sires. Herr Roodenbek, the to Cen tral Americn, had concluded a treaty of commerce, friendship, Ac., which was immediately ratified by Congress. Senor Zambrano, the Spanish Minister, had com menced negotiations for a treaty; but it being con sidered desirable to negotiate a common treaty be tween Spain and the Central American Union, Senor Zambrano had retired to Madrid, whither perhaps plenipotentiaries would be sent from all the States. Punta Arenas had, by decree, been raised tod he dignity of a city. In order to promote the Union of the Central American States under one government, the Costa Rican Congress had authorized President Mora to agree to a uniform system of currency, weights, measures, Ac., and to adopt a uniform tarifffor toll and other systems, Nicaragua. —We have El Nacional dejjeon to Sept. 18. The fifteenth of September, a general national holiday, was celebrated with much spirit. The new Constitution had been adopted with many rejoicings. The National Assembly’ had authorized Presi dent Martinez to take steps to perfect the Central American Union. The Ministry had been reconstructed as follows: Foreign Affairs: D. Pedro Zeladon. Treasury: Dr. D. Jesus de la Rocha, Government and War: D. Eduardo Castillo. Things In* Washington, 11s Telegraphed, to the New York Papers. Admiral Kellett, commander of the British West India squadron, will go at once to the waters of Central America to back Sir William Gore Ousley by the presence and significant prestige of the British fleet. Sir William leaves immediately.— Should General Walker or any fillibusters attempt to land In Nicaragua, Admiral Kellett is instruct ed, upon application of the existing government of that Republic, to use his force against the fillibus ters. The President and Cabinet say emphatically that whatever course particular Northern Democrats may pursue concerning the English bill, they in tend to stand by the provision excluding Kansas until she have a population of ninety-three thou sand, ascertained by the census, and will insist upon that condition as a party test. This declar ation will be substantially affirmed in the mes sage. The increase of the Paraguay force shows that tho expectations of the Administration have sud denly changed. It is now believed that if Lopez decides ou resistance, it will be necessary to send a large military force, under experienced generals, for land operations. The statement is current that George Saunders was despatched to Kansas yesterday, w ith instruc tions creating him Presidential legate, withppor ers of acting governor. If Indiana-Leeomptou Hughes gets anything diplomatic, it will be the Prussian mission, vice Gov. Wright, who has been long opposed by Bright. The Russian mission has too recently been filled by Col. Pickens of South Carolina to | be vacated for Hughes’ sake. Revised Democratic estimates givo nine South Americans in the next House. Mr. Dallas has written to the President that he will return home in the spring, and Mr. Clay has been recalled from Peru. I also learn that Mr. Preston declines the mission to Spain, after having intimated his acceptance. Secretary Cass had a consultation yesterday with Secretary Toucey about strengthening the Home Squadron, in view of our Mexican relations and the anticipated Spanish fleet for Cuban wa ters. It is probable that several vessels will be ordered home from forein stations for this shore. The movements of General Walker are regarded with much interest, especially in diplomatic cir cles, it being represented that he is well supplied with both men and money for his professedly peaceful enterprise. The Bible in Schools. —At the Synod of N. Y. and New Jersey, recently held at Orange, New Jersey, Rev. Dr. Parker, of this city, moved the following resolutions, which, after a very interest ing discussion, w T ere adopted: Resolved, That the education of children in the public schools, within the bounds of this Synod, re quires the more vigilant attention of the Church, lest by neglect of the Bible and those Christian principles which inculcate obedience to govern ment and respect for law. these schools should lose all power, and become subservient to the increase of infidelity, Romanism, licentiousness, and an archy. Resolved, That this Synod would express their regret that the Bible has been latety expelled from some of our Public Schools, and they would call upon all Christian people and friends of our civil institutions to use every proper Christian influence to restore it to its place. California Steamship Line. The American Atlantic and Pacific Ship Canal Company havejopened the line of travel to Califor nia across the Isthmus, and announce the sailing of their steamers at regular intervals from theports on the Atlantic and Pacific sides for the next month. This company possesses the grant from the Nicaraguan government for the transit across the Isthmus, and they have already sent down three steamboats for the transportation of passen gers and freight by the lake and river. These boats are now at their destinations. The company, some months ago, chartered the steamship Her mann from her owners, and that vessel left for San Juan del Sur on the 24th of August last, and will probably arrive at that port so as to commence her trips to San Francisco by the middle of November. The steamship Washington was purchased to run in connection with the Hermann, between New York and San Juan del Norte, and she is now being fitted up for that purpose. She will be rea dy to leave hereon the 6th of November, so as to have her passengers and freight at San Juan del Norte in time for the sailing of the Hermann from the other side. On her way to that point she will touch at Kingston, Jamaica, and after discharg ing her passengers for that island, pursue her route direct for her ultimate destination. According to the terms of the agreement with the Nicaraguan govormnent, the company are to build a railroad from Virgin Bay, on Lake Nica ragua, to San Juan del Sur, a distance of about 20 miles. Up to this point the travel will be by steamboat on the river and lake. At present the twelve miles over which the|railroad is to be con structed is over a good macadamized road to the port on the Pacific, where the passengers are to be received on board the Hermann from the compa ny’s wharf and conveyed direct to San Francisco.
