COU MBIN, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 8. 1858. Emigration to Nicaragua. “An emigration company is forming in this city with Nicaragua selected as the future home. A vessel is to leave Mobile on the 10th of next month, for the Central American paradise, and with the emigrants there collecting. The compa ny in this city is forming and preparing to leave. Maj. Ellis is forming the company here, and his office is at the Merchants’ Hotel, where he will be pleased to receive the applications of all who de sire to go along. This is a civil and peaceful en terprise, and those who go will land and be receiv ed, and suffered to look out, each man for himself, just as the ship loads of men do who land here from the old shores of Europe—Nicaragua is a place where citizens of the United States can set tle and thrive in a peaceable way, and there are thousands who want to do so. All necessary par ticulars about the emigration will be given upon application to Maj. Ellis.”— New Orleans Cres cent. The presumption of those who thus openly an nounce their intention to invade the territory of a neighboring republic, with which we arc at peace, in contravention of all national law and without provocation or excuse, is not often equaled: And that reliance should be placed on false colors and assumed names as an effectual protection from the interference of United States authorities under such circumstances, surpasses comprehension. — Everbody knows that “emigration is only a sy nonym for invasion, and “hollow ware,” for death dealing missiles and musketry. Pi’ctensions of this character are too “hollow” to be mistaken, or to conceal hostile intentions. Accordingly, with direct reference to this movement, the President, in his proclamation, enjoins all officers of the (gov ernment, civil and military, in their respective spheres, to be vigilant, active and faithful, in sup pressing these illegal enterprises, and in carrying out their standing instructions to that effect.— Journal of Commerce. Such is the commentary of the Journal of Com merce upon the announcement that a company of emigrants is shortly to leave our shores for Nicar agua, for tho purpose of peaceful colonization in that counti-y. It is to bo assumed, then, that when ever a number of individuals leave the United States for Nicaragua, they are associated in a conspiracy for hostile invasion. No matter what maybe their professions of peaceful intention, they are marauders. Pots and ovens are, by executive construction, to bo converted into mortars, cups and saucers into instruments of destruction and rat-traps, an invention for catching some luckless Nicaraguan. It would be difficult to conceive a more monstrous doctrine —one tho details and ap plication of which would more nearly comport with the ultra pretensions of the most absolute despotism. Tho right of expatriation is peculiar ly an American doctrine. In vindication of this right our Government in 1812 braved the hazards of a war with tho most powerful nation on the earth, and is ready we trust to submit the ques tion to the same tcrriblo arbitrament whenever it is practically denied. Put though we will shed our blood to maintain it when it is infringed by for eign nations, wo are equally ready to make the same sacrifice to suppress it, should it suit our views or policy so to do. Lot not the question be misstated. IVo say that the denial of the right of our people to go to Nic aragua, or elsewhere, singly or in companies, when they expressly declare a peaceful intention, and under circumstances of equipment not contra dictory of that declaration, is a denial of this cher ished right of expatriation. Tho doctrine assert ed by the Journal of Commerce cannot be support ed except upon the assumption of tho impossibility of peaceful emigration. If this hypothesis is a subject for executive discretion, the right of which’ we have spoken is a non-entity. It may be in dulged as well with reference to any other nation as to Nicaragua. Indeed it may be made to ap ply with equal plausibility and justice to inter state migration, and a company of Georgians moving to Texas may be arrested on the charge of having a hostile design against that common wealth. We arc not in favor of curtailing the Constitutional powers of the executive, but we are in favor of confining him to them. Ho is charged with the execution of the laws of the country, and, in this capacity, it is his duty to enforce obser vance of our treaty obligations; but in the per formance of this trust let him not override the rights and liberties of the people. We have no fault to find with his instructions to Federal offi cers to bo diligent in endeavoring to suppress “il legal enterprises,” provided ho does not intend to include all classes of emigration in this phrase.— Tho fact that the existing Government of Nicara gua has declared that emigrants will not bo allow ed to enter her territory, unless provided with pa ssports from Nicaraguan authorities residing in tho United States, does not authorize any action on tho part of this Government. If they choose to go, notwithstanding this prohibition, it is an affair to be settled exclusively between Nicaragua and themselves. Cognizant of the regulation, they can take tho risk ‘or not as they may con clude from a calculation of chances. No principle of international law requires this Government to take notice, or assist in the execution of any law appertaining to the interior and police regulations of a foreign country. Tnn Paraguay Expedition. —The Buenos Ayres papers rejoice at the news of the Paraguay Expedition from tho United States, and hail Com- Shubrick’s squadron as the agent to civilize all South America. Agricultural College. —A Virginia gentle man proposes to donate $20,000 for the erection of an Agricultural College in the vicinity of the University of Virginia, on condition that the far mers of the State will render the donation avail able for the purpose, by contributing an addition al sum of $50,000. London Star says a bill is being pre pared there by which no couple will be permitted to marry without finding two securities to keep the peace towards each other. -The sum required will ho from fifty dollars to one thousand dollars, according to the wealth of the parties. Portrait of Governor Troup. —Mr. Mair, of Atlanta, has deposited in the Senate Chamber a full length portrait of the Hon. George M. Troup. It has been painted by order of tho Legislature, and was taken from a cabinet bust in the posses sion of Col. Forman. Wo deem the likeness a good one, and tho Governor placed in a natural and striking positiou to those who knew him, He is represented in “a sitting position, with a leg crossed, surrounded with books in the Executive Department, pen in oue hand, an J the other hold ing up his memorable message to the Legislature in tho trying times in the history of the State as to its jurisdiction, wherein he says in his contro versy with the b ederal Government: , “T beseech you, therefore, gentlemen, that it is not, too late, and having exhausted the argument, step forth and stand by your arms.” Gov. Clark’s portrait, painted in Macon, is ex pected in a few days.— Milledgeville Recorder. FURTHER FROM THE RIO GRANDE. lutcrcstlng from Mexico. The Brownsville Flag, of the 27th ult., furnishes the following summary of the latest Mexican news, received at that place. It is interesting, and goes to show that the cause of the Liberals is not so desperate as, on hearing of Vidaurri’s defeat, we were led to expect. According to this account, 400 of Vidaurri’s men, taken prisoners by Mira mou, were subsequently massacred by his soldie ry. It seems that these Mexicans cannot imag ine a victory complete unless it is signalized by inhuman butchery of defenceless prisoners. By the last mail from Monterey we have the Bohtin Ojicial, of the 16th, which brings some in teresting news. Gen. Vidaurri had resigned his position as “general-in-chief of the army of the North,” and conferred the charge upon Col. Zara gosa, of Monterey, who had already began an ac tive reorganization of the Liberal troops. He had already an armed and equipped force of more than two thousand men. A forced loan had been imposed upon the com merce of Monterey, and a voluntary contribution had been opened, by which combined means it was thought that soon ample funds would be rais ed, enough, at least, to enable the frontiersmen to sally out again upon their enemies. It is stated that “treason in camp” has been the cause of Gen. Vidaurri’s defeat, as the following facts, stated by a Bolctin of recent date, will show: It seems that several of Vidaurri’s guns had been spiked by someone in camp, previous to the at tack by the enemy, who made a simultaneous charge exactly upon the point where the battery thus disabled had been placed; feeling confident that the fire of muskets would be the only resist ance to be met with ; and before that point could be reinforced, the enemy had gained too much ground. Confusion ensued, and the Liberal chiefs, thinking that all was lost, led a hasty, and, it is said, an inglorious retreat. Lieut. Nunez, of the Liberal army, a Spanish merchant named Flo rencio Alvo, and several others, are charged with the treason which is said to have occasioned the defeat of the liberal army at the North. The Reactionists, who have now a comparative ly free scope of country on which to rove, are committing all sorts of depredations upon every body and everything that belongs to or has belong ed to the Liberal party. They fell, recently, up on the hacienda of El Canelo, belonging to Gen. Aramberri, a Liberal, and after pillaging its con tents ad libitum, and dispersing the inhabitants, they sot fire to it, leaving nothing but tho ashes as vestiges of what is said to have been a beautiful place. Generals Pueblita, Iluerta, Coronado and Blan co were, by last accounts, threatening tho city of San Luis, which is now the stronghold of tho Re actionists. They had a very respectable force, their soldiers were well armed and equipped, and they were anxious to encounter their enemy.— Doubtless a battle may soon take place between the combined forces of those chiefs and those of Gen. Miramon. The Northern chiefs, Garza and Vidaurri, have received the official report of the total defeat of Casanova at Guadalajara by Gen. Degollado, and the capture of that important place by tho latter. In this achievement the Liberals have recovered all, if not more, than Vidaurri lost before San Lu is ; this being so, they can be said to remain in their former state, notwithstanding the partial de feat of the Northern forces. In the engagement between the Reactionists forces and those of Vidaurri 400 of the latter’s men were captured by tho former, who, after see ing them disarmed and taking from them their most valuable equipments, ordered his second in command to take them from his sight and do with them as ho thought fit. This inhuman wretch, who well knew what would ensue from such course, placed them in the hands of his soldiery, who were just then in a beastly state of intoxication. They tell upon the captives, who were entirely defence less, and a horrible massacre followed. At the end of the terrible scene, the lifeless bodies of four hundred human beings were found stretched upon the ground, mangled and weltering in their blood, a patent sacrifice to the holy cause of liberty. A rumor has been rife in town that Zuloaga had deserted the capital and gone south, in quest of some port where to embark for some foreign coun try. Of course, this is but a rumor, yet it is to be hoped there is some foundation for it.— New Or leans Picayune. llow Thf. Press is Affected by Dead Heads. Railroads occasionally complain of dead-heading, but no institution suffers so much from it as the press. A sensible writer says:— Tho press endures the infliction of dcad-head ism from the pulpit, tho bar and the stage, from corporations, societies and individuals. It is ex pected to yield its interests; it is required to give strength to weak institutions, eyes to the blind, clothes to the naked, and bread to the hungry; it is asked to cover infirmities, hide weakness, and wink at improprieties; it is expected to herald quacks, bolster up dull authors, and flatter the vain; it is, in short, to be all things to all men ; and if it looks for pay or reward, it is denounced as mean and sordid, There is no interests under the whole heavens that is expected to give so much to society without pay or thanks, as tho press. Buggy Accident. —Orlando Holland Esq., of Enterprise, Miss., on his return yesterday, from the Fair Grounds, in a buggy, was obliged to turn rapidly off the near end of the Flank road, to avoid a collision with a carriage. In turning the cushion slipped and he was thrown out,; the buggy passing over him. He was quite badly hurt about the head and feet, but was able to be out this morning. The horse carried off the buggy and smashed it.— Montgomery Mail, sth. Yesterday’s Elections and their Results—Seward’s Manifesto in Full Blast, The general results of our State election yester day—Gubernatorial and Congressional—will not be surprising to the managers of Tammany Hall. Morgan is elected Governor by a handsome ma jority, and the regular democracy have been beat en in a number of their old Congressional districts. Clark and Haskin are thus re-elected as anti-ad ministration candidates; Humphreys is elected over Taylor in the Brooklyn district; Geo. Briggs, fusion, over Elijah Ward, and Reynolds, anti- Leeompton opposition candidate, over Erastus Corning in the Albany district. Tho democrats, however, have saved John Cochrane, Sickles, Maclay and Barr in this city, which is more than they expected by one half; and have elected their entii*c county and judiciary ticket, which is also something more than the appearances of the can vass two days ago woulfl justify. The return for Governor, on the other hand, in dicate a gain of several thousand in this city by the republican candidate from the American side, and a very significant run of gains on last year’s comparative vote, in almost every hole and corner of the State. The Rochester manifesto, then, of W. 11. Seward, declaring incessant war upon the Southern institution of slavery until all the slave States shall be made free States, or until all the free States shall be changed into slave States, has received a nominal endorsement from the people of this commonwealth, which places Mr. Seward prominently in tho foreground as a republican can didate for the Presidency upon the bloody aboli tion and revolutionary platform of Lloyd Garri son and Theodore Parker. Thus the election of Morgan becomes the most conspicuous, the most significant, and the most momentous of all the results of all our elections for tho last twenty years; inasmuch as it places the republican party with a majority in the next Congress upon Seward’s warlike and disunion platform, until the party shall have otherwise de creed. The party must now consent to sink Se ward beyond the hope of resurrection, or consent to think with him and the Union in his designs to carry the war against slavery into the heart of the Southern States. This issue, thus broadly developed in the elec tion of Morgan, is the paramount result of yester day’s election, in connection with an anti-admin istration Congress. The agitation for IS6O now begin; but who can predict the end ?— N. V. Her ald. 3 and inst. Mexican Affairs. A Washington correspondent ofthe N. Y. Herald says : Senor Mata, the representative of President Juarez and the Constitutionalists, has left for Vera Cruz. Before leaving he was admitted to a private interview with the President, and another with Gen. Cass. The chief point of desire on the part of President Juarez isjto obtain some pecu niary aid from our Government, and Senor Mata was given to understand that our Government could take no part in the present contest in Mexi co, but should the Constitutionalists succeed, and evince a disposition to arrange the pending ques tions between the two countries and the claims of American citizens in an amicable and just spirit, they would find on the part of this Government, every disposition to afford them such moral and material aid as was in its power. The points on which such a negotiation might turn are: A railroad route to some port on the Gulf of California, a liberal commercial treaty, including reciprocity in certain articles on the northern and California frontier, and a treaty guaranteeing the neutrality of the Tehuantepec route. Senor Mata will return here before the close of tho session, so as to give the President an opportunity to request Congress to act before spring. Some of tho foreign ministers have been in communication with the State Department re garding Mexico. It appears that not only Span iards, but foreigners generally, were subject to severe proscription at San Luis Potosi|and oth er places. Spiritualism—Practical Manifestation In Pulaski County. Our sprightly contemporary, the Pulaski Times, whose attention has been drawn to spiritualism, gives the following remarkable manifestation in that county, the narration of which was overboard by one of the editors from the lips of a venerable and truthful negro claiming to be a “ mejum .” It is the first spiritual manifestation we have ever read about, which promised to be of much use, and it is a pity it should have been spoiled in the process of development, by the somewhat “irrev erent curiosity” of (he “ mejum” aforesaid. We will premise our clipping from tho story by stating that the venerable narrator and “ mejum” was out on a ’possum 1. unt, and had treed his game on an immense black gum tree, too big in his judgment 1 for his own cutting—and he thereupon betook himself to the “spirits” for aid: So I goes up to de tree and stuck my axe, as hard as I could, an lefit dar, an step off from the tree, an sed : Ef dare is de sjnrithere ob any black man dat is dead, what has eber been possum hunt in’ wid me, I wiM tank him to let me know it by cut ting down die tree. I say the same ting over tree time, an den I see de axe comin out ob de tree, an afore I could snuff my torch, away it was gwine cutting like blazes, jes like sum body; but I swar afore God, Josh, dar was not a soul dare but me an de dog. Ob course I knowedfor troof it was a spirit; my dog raise he brissels and growl—l make him lie down and hush he mouf. Bime-by, arter de axe had cut a big keerf, it stop and set down on de groun, jes like when you stop to blow, and rake de chips outen de place dats cut, wid your hand you know, and de chips fall outen de place, but I could’nt see no band nor fftiffin. Well, I want skecred a bit; I stood dare an de axe stood dare jest leanin up ginst nuffin. Tinks I dat must be Bill Chizzum, what use to go wid me possum huntin afore he died. Sez I, is dat you Bill Chizzum, an when I say dat, down fall de axe on de groun, and all do suadin I could do, it nebber cut anodcr bit. Den I knowed it was Bill, an he tink I gwine to ax him for de quarter dollar he owed me when ho die, an ho cut out for true. I tell you, Josh, I didn’t cotch dat possum; no sirroe bob—dis chile take he axe and cut for home, sartin.' —Macon Telegraph. Then and Now. Any one who has usually been present at the Capitol during tho Bi-enni&l Session, and who was in Milledgcville at the opening of tho first Annual Session, could not fail to be struck with the painful quiet of the latter. The members arrived in town and actually got out of the omuibus without acci dent. No collaring; no button-holeing, no whis pering, no printing of cards, and positively but little treating. The lame, the halt, and tho blind, stayed at home, much to the comfort of the mem bers, and the healthy condition of their own pur ses. A scene, however, of some interest oecured in tho House, which somewhat surprised us. It was announced, that the Door-Keeper of the House of Representatives was absent, and as the Speaker had the appointment, all at once four or five names were proposed, evidencing the spirit of the old session, if not the presence of the army of occu pation. A friend suggested to us, that the Presi dent and Speaker should have the appointment of all the subordinate officers —if that provision was made we would guaranty that neither of the distin guished occupants of the Chair could survive one siege—the tailor could not keep them in wearing apparel, and they would “die (not) of arose in aro matic pain,” but of bad whiskey and a bore in the ears. —Daily Federal Union. Frost. Not to announce the gladsome tidings that it has fallen nor to predict when it will whiten the roofs of our houses do we write this word. Would that wo could say the silent visitor has been here, or promise that the marks of his foot-prints would soon delight our eyes. It would be puerile and presumptuous in us to foretell its fall, after those who have been studying the clouds and feeling the pulse of the atmosphere, until their hair is frosted to the roots, have so signally failed in their prog nostications. But frost is to us like some dear friend who has promised to pay us a visit at a cer tain time, but who delays his coming, we know not why. Every day we expect ho will make his ap pearance, and it is pleasant to talk in the family about him, and to sweeten our frequent disap pointments with tho self-promise, that to-morrow we will surely shako his hand. In this light, we in the city are ploased to regard this white-robed dweller in the chill air. He has been talked about, wished for a thousand times, and most ardently ; his arrival has even been foretold, and once we thought he would have come, but he stopped seven miles beyond the bounds of our city, and since that the air has been too hot to allow him to enter. But to-day ho seems to be preparing the roofs for his carpet. Tuesday afternoon masses of slate colored clouds were piled up on a Western sky, and the sun went down through them. Light ning leaped from them, and spreading them selves over the stars they poured out drenching showers through the dark air, cooling it as they-; fell. Yesterday the wind from the North-west made the sun-side very grateful. It was a day for a bridal; as bright as the world is to happy childhood. And when it was all shade, walkers instinctively quickened their pace, and thought of shawls and overcoats. May we venture to hope that they who regale themselves with the sweet breath of the young day, will, on the mor row, behold hoar-frost ? Wo dare not indulge the pleasing hope. The leaves of our city trees may continue to flourish in greenness, and coals lie untouched in the cellars. But notwithstanding we bemoan the late coming of the fever’s destroy er, our wharves and thoroughfares are becoming noisy and crowded. A large and increasing business has been car ried on in our principal staples during the past three weeks. Cottop bales are awaiting pressure, though steam is working with all its might and speed. True, there are no signs of winter bustle and energy along Ilayne and Meeting streets, for their customers prefer to come and see and select. They must watch for tho silent blessing. But those sections washed by the river are alive with clatter and encumbered with the evidences of prosperity. Many have returned to their homes during the past week, many are waiting for frost to open the city gates. We would not advise any who fear the scourge to expose themselves to it. But the decrease in the number of cases and its diminish ed virulence, justify us in expecting its disap pearance even without the presence of frost.— Charleston Courier.

Washington, Nov. 2, 1858.—The Attorney General has given an opinion on tho construction of acts of July 29, 1848, February 3, 1853, and Augusts, 1854, granting pensions to widows. He holds a pension can in no case be paid for a period embraced in second coverture, and that it has been contrary to the whole scope of legislation on this subject that a woman should be paid a pen sion for the time she was actually married. It seems that the Pension Office has in some cases sanctioned a different practice. The present Commissioner, Mr. “Whiting, entertained doubts of the legality of such payment, and referred the sub ject to the Attorney General. Mr. J. Glancy Jones will not leave for Austria before the middle of December. No official information has yet reached the State Department of additional concessions said to have been made by Japan to this country, though such statements are considered reliable.— Nothing is thought of at present in Washington but elections. There is most intense anxiety. News from Mexico. Washington, Nov. 2.—Tabasco dates of tho 14th of October are received by the arrival of the New Orleans mail of Friday last. Governor Sar lat, the Zuloaga commander at Tabasco, had pro claimed martial law in his department, owing to the invasion of the constitutionalists from Chiopa, to oppose whom he was endeavoring to raise a sufficient force. A Singular Incident. —Last week, in Rich mond, as Edwin Booth was performing the char acter of Macbeth with his wonted and splendid effect, a very singular incident had like to have transformed the mimic tragedy into a real one. — The young actor was entirely absorbed in his part, the audienfce 1)6081110 unusually excited by his acting, and finally rose en masse with vociferous applause in the midst of the performance; just then Macbeth, on hearing of Macduff’s arrival bringing with him the forest of Dunsinane, in a paroxysm of terror threw his blade hastily from him; it struck one of the supernumeraries of tho theatre who stood behind the scones watching Booth so intently that he did not stoop to avoid the wea pon; the dagger passed into his hat and knocked it on the ground, and the frightened scene-shifter hurried away to watch the rest of the play in secu rer quarters. It must be rather difficult or dan gerous to play with one so entirely forgetful of everything but his role, as Booth seems to be.— In the same tragedy, he struck with a truncheon the shin of his standard bearer till tho fellow bont double and bellowed with pain. Tho audience were amazed at tho naturalness both of the great actor and his supporter.— N. Y. News. An Opinion of Congress.— Mr. Gurley, Re publican, elected to Congress, in Cincinnati, was formerly a Universalist minister. One of his op ponents was trying to persuade an old Methodist not to vote for him. “Do you think you are fur thering the cause of religion,” said he, “by voting for a Universalist—one who does not believe in a hell ?” “Yes,” was the old Methodist’s reply, “if by the time Mr. Gurley has been in Congress a year he does not believe there is a hell, then I am very much mistaken. I shall vote for him.” Victim of his Profession.— Mrs. Snow, who belongs to that long-suffering but most estimable class, editors wives, gives vent to some of her troubles in this wise : Mr. Snow knows the name of every paper pub lished in the United States and England, but he can’t for the life of him tell the names of his chil dren. Ho knows just the age of every American journal, but he does not know the age of his own babies. He knows how every contributor looks, but I don’t believe ho can tell whether my eye’s are black or blue. The world says Mr. Snow is getting rich. All I know is, he gives me money to clothe and feed the boys, and that, too, without a complaint of pover ty. I hope the world is right in opinion, and lam fully satisfied that it is, I shall advise him to re sign his editorial honors and spend a few months in becoming acquainted with his wife and children. The little ones will feel much flattered in making the acquaintance of so literary a gentleman. MARRIED. In Vineville, on the morning of the 28th ult., by tho Rev. Dr. Boring, Wm. F.
