JIH- JLIJ I 1 -J’- ■■ 1 lW^ Post-Office Change. Mr. R. C. Forsyth, who has faithfully dischar ped the duties of Postmaster in this City during Gen Pierce’s and the past portion of Mr. Buchan an’s Administration, has resigned that office.— His friends will learn with regret that this step has been taken by him in contemplation of a re moval from their midst. The vacancy has been filled by the appointment of Dr. Henry M. Jeter, The responsibility of the office could not have beens devolved upon a more competent- and worthy gentleman. Thk Atlantic Caulk. —The late electrician to the Atlantic Telegraph Company. Mr. White house. has felt himself compelled to come forward and offer his services again to the undertaking.— He does this from a feeling of duty, as being so largely identified with the inception of the pro ject ; and also because be is convinced that the cable is readily recoverable. He therefore asked permission to make the necessary examination, and if that should be satisfactory to his judge ment, he offers to re-open communications with Newfoundland at his own risk, and to maintain it open at a moderate percentage on the receipts. Women betting on a Prize Fight.— lt is said that the wife of Morrissey, who is the daughter of a wealthy man in Troy, won $2,000 on the result of the fight with Heenan, and his father-in-law won SBO,OOO. In view of this fact, the Boston Traveller wants to know if New \ork is not a great State, and whether it does not speak well for the morals of a community when a woman stakes money on the probabilities of her husband being able to pound and beat another man till he is hammered to a jelly. Whereupon the New York Express asks if it is any worse fora woman to hot on a prize fight than to bet on elections, figure in free love conventions, walk the streets iu masculine apparel, fce., as sometimes happens in New England. France.—The imports and exports of France, for the year 1857 amounted in the aggregate to ten hundred and sixty-five millions of dollars. In 1847, ten years ago, under the government of Louis Philippe, they amounted only to four hun dred and sixty-eight millions. The increase has been livo hundred and ninety-seven millions, or one hundred and twenty-eight per cent: The in crease in population lias been small. The ad vaneo inado by Franco is perfectly astonishing. Her foreign trade lias quadrupled in the ton year’s of Napoleon’s reign. During the seven teen years of Louis Philippe’s reign it only trebl ed. French commerce, which, a few years ago, was far behind ours, now considerably exceeds it in value. Our foreign imports and exports in 1857 were only eight hundred and twenty-three millions of dollars. This French precedence of us, after we had long ranked next to Great Brit ain in trade, is not very flattering to our national prjde. Her commerce, however, is carried on largely in foreign ships. The tonnage of the United States is three times larger than hers. Consul to Geneva. —Wm. Fell Giles, .Jr., of this city, has received from President Buchanan, the appointment to the consulship of the United States at Geneva, {Switzerland. Mr. Giles is a son of the Hon. Wm, F. Giles.

Tue Troubles in the Navajo Country.— Advices from Fort Defiance to the 28th of Septem ber state that the train in charge of Capt. Lindsay, with Government stores, had arrived at the Fort on the 24th. 43 days had been consumed on the route from Fort Union. Maj Brooks arrived at the Fort on the 24th, having made a 5 days’ scout to Coleta and the surrounding country. The Indians were seen in large numbers, but could not be brought to an engagement. i Capt. Hatch, with I company rifles, Lieut. ; Whipple, with B company infantry, and Lieut. I Dickinson, left the fort on the 24tli for Laguena Negra, On the 29th Col. Miles, with his entire command, except a small garrison, left for Chusco and Tunieha. The forec consisted of Col.

They had had an engagement with the band under the command of Zarzellos Largos, the principal war-chief of the Xavajoes. Eight Indian’s were killed, and several horses captured. Extraordinary Memory of Shi el. the Irish Orator. Shiel, the celebrated Irish orator, was endowed with an extraordinary verbal memory. His mode of preparing bis speeches was altogether singular. In the O’Connell cnae in 1543 he recited his speech to the London reporters beforehand. “Great was 1 the disappointment of the reporters,” says his bi ographer, “at being told that, although lie had the speech in his head, nothing but a few memoranda existed on paper. Far greater was their surprise when he undertook to speak it for them by antici pation. With his hands wrapped in flannel, he kept slowly moving up and down the room, repea ting with great rapidity, and occasionally’ with hi 6 wonted vehemence of intonation, passage af ter passage, and paragraph after paragraph ; then, wearied with the strange and irksome effort, he would lay himself down upon a sofa, and, after a short pause, recommence his expostulation with the jury, his allusions to the bench, and his sar castic apostrophes to the counsel for the Crown. On he went, with but brief interruptions, and few pauses to correct or alter, until the whole was finished, and had been accurately noted down. ntten out with care, it was sent to the printer and, at the moment when he arose to speak in ©urt, printed copies were In the hands of those who had faithfully rendered his ideas previously. As he proceeded, they wore thus enabled to mark easily and rapidly any slight variations of phrase ology ; but these, for the most part, were so few and trivial as to cause little delay’ in the correc tion of the proofs. Georgia Legislature. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Saturday Morning Nov. 13, 1858. The House met pursuant to adjournment, and a motion was made to reconsider so much of yes terday's Journal as related to the resolution re questing the Governor to furnish certain inform ation in relation to the Western and Atlantic Rail Road. Messrs. Bigham andMilledge were strongly in favor of reconsideration, to jwhich Mr. Huffman was opposed. The motion, however, prevailed. An hour or more was taken up, in the reconside ration of a private bill, which passed at last. To the indomitable pereeverence of Mr. Mintz of Jackson, Mr. Wilhite is indebted for this. The unfinished business of the previous day that is the Macon and Brunswick Railroad bill, was taken up, the Report, with the several amend ments of yesterday were agreed to. Mr. Harris of Glynn, desired to make a remark before the passage of the bill. We were ready, he said, to sink or swim, live or die on this bill, and were bound to carry’ it. through, and stand by it like the Spartan band at Thermopolse, and so sure was he that the project would prove profitable tliut he was willing to accept the bill with all its restrictions. Mr. Bigham: This is a question of principle; it was inagurating a great principle. Though it came not in the same form as last winter the prin ciple was the same. Mr. Walker of Henry: The gentleman from Troup says we are on a raft again. I differ with him there. My motto is to live not for myself alone but for my neighbors. My God has blessed me with more than I ever expected to have or ev er prayed for. I have lived economically’, and now 1 can enjoy’ myself. lam as happy as any body else is. Georgia is my neighbor, and this road will pass through many lots of land which will increase their value. People would go there and become rich, and for this reason I will vote for the bill.! Mr. Bigham: The gentleman from Glynn has said he was willing to accept the bill with its re strictions. Look at your sister State who has given State aid. Leave the question of State aid to the people, the bone and sinew of the land.— You propose to put a debt, not upon yourselves but upon posterity. $200,000 is the amout of debt you will put upon the State, and you propose to pay that amount with the nett earnings of your road. Ilow can it be so? The idea is preposterous. Your first bonds wil become due in twenty years. In 33 years a race of men becomes extinct. If it is difficult to provide for the present, how much more so for the future? I ask my Southern Rights friends if they are willing to put tho State into such a position as to cramp her resources. Look at the position of the country. What would be the condition of the State in case of a war? He concluded with an amendment wishing to recom mit the bill, and refer the question of State aid to the people. Mr. Hardeman of Bibb, hoped tho amendment would not pass. We are the representatives of the people, and if we arc not disposed to take the responsibility of passing bills, we had better go home and let them send others. The gentleman last year hadjjealled it a raft, and now he wished them to vote for it, raft or no raft. Mr. Harris of Glynn: If I understand the motion of the gentleman from Troup, he wishes tho House to avoid the responsibilty, and refer the question to the people. It may be said that I seek to stifle the voice of the people. Tho voice of the people has reverberated from the mountains to the seaboard; had carried H. V. Johnson into the Executive Chair, aud kept Joseph E. Brown there. In 1855—’6, tho question had been be fore the people, before the House, before Govern or Johnson, than whom there does uot exist a more elevated mind, or more perfect gentleman; in short there does not live South of Mason and Dixon’s line, a man so eminently qualified as a statesman. Was not the gentleman from Troup in favor of selling the Western & Atlantic Rail road, and devoting the proceeds of the sale to aid in the construction of other Railroad enterprises? Members say that if the Stato can be secured un der this bill, they will vote for its passags. Is there anything in the bill which will commend it self to the favor of the State? It is said that the road will pass through a sterile country; the 12 counties through which the road will pass pay 1-10 of the tax of the State. They containsso,- 000,000 worth of property’. It is wise, it is prop er to aid them: and instead of $50,000,000 it would be increased to $500,000,000. Do I indulge in a visionary dream? Wo are faithful to our State, true to our section, when we ask for State aid.— Cherokee Georgia, before aided by T the State with the Western and Atlantic Railroad, was the dwell ing of Indians, bears and wolves; and now, is it not the garden spot of the South? We come to Cherokee Georgia, and like Peter, walking on the water, cry “Help.” Shall this cry be unheeded? Railroads’ will invite emigration and retain our sons upon the the soil where the bones of our rev olutionary fathers repose. The port of Brunswick is the best port on the Southern Atlantic. The waters upon which Oglethorpe first looked—tho. 3 same waters —smile still as tranquilly under the beams of the moon as they did then. It would be come the granary of the world, and wc could then dictate to them who now dictate to us. I have always been a Southern Rights man, and this is a Southern measure. Yes, sir, a Geor gia measure. Where is the cotton from this sec tion shipped; to Charleston. When great outlets of trade are opened, no port but Brunswick can sustain the teeming fleets. I stand upon the soil of Georgia, aud may the day’ come when she may depend upon no port, North or South to carry’ on her commerce. I propose to rise in the might of our strength and tell our oppressors their reign is over. Ido not believe there is a representative on this floor, should our soil be invaded,but would gird on his sword and leaj) as lightly to the con test as Jhe bridegroom to his chamber. But to day’ I invite you to no such feast; this is a peacea ble measure of dollars and cents. Mr. Findlay of Lumpkin: It is now a good time to give in my r experience—a better time than when 1 was converted. The gentleman says he is a Southern Rights man. lam proud to say I am a Union man. I never expect to be a candi date again. lam just as willing to vote to aid Southern as Upper Georgia, I represent the mountains but I shall vote it. The bill was passed, ayes 71, nays 68. Interesting Scrap of History. The following interesting narrative is copied from the Vicksburg True Southron of the 19th, having been furnished by an intelligent Raymond (Miss.) contributor. The story is well told, and is no doubt authentic : A Scrap of History for the True Southron. — It is often remembered that truth is sometimes stranger than fiction, and it is even thus in the story following, and which is so well authentica ted that it is woven in the history of our country. In the year 1674, two brothers of Oliver Cromwell left England for America, and settled in Wood bridge, New Jersey. Thence they removed and settled in Halifax county, North Carolina. Their names were John and Edward Cromwell, and they and their ancestors were originally called Cromwell. They fled from England to seek an asylum in America, from the political storms that then Impended over the name and house of the Protector. While on their voyage to this country, being apprehensive that persecution would follow them from the adherents of Charles 11, then on the throne of England, they determined to change their name: which was done with much solemn ceremony, by writing their name each on paper, and each cutting from the paper the letter M and casting it into the sea. The tarnily pedigree on parchment recording these facte, with many others relating to the fam ily, was with them in North Carolina in an orna mental chest with other things of value, when a party of Tarleton’s Legion, in 1780, marauding through that portion of Carolina, seized the chest and carried it off. These facts are undoubted. From the memory of the family the record was again mad# up and is still preeerred among then. In the calm retreats of Carolina, the proud aspir ing blood of Cromwell found repose. The furious political billows of Old England tossed them on our pure and shores. It is said that these brothers had no participation in the political dis turbance of their country, or the bloody work of their brother ; and in the peaceful and quiet shade of Halifax county, far from political strifo and bloodshed, they sat securely under their own “vine and fig tree.” Truly the beautiful and ex quisite Hues of Gray were here fully realized: “Some mute, inglorious Milton here may rest, Some Cromwell guitless of his country's blood.” Edward Crowell, the son of this Edward who emigrated from England, removed to Georgia and married Miss Rayburn, a sister of Geo. Rayburn. He had a large plantation on Flint river; lived in retirement, and was a modest, unobtrusive char acter. He had several children, among whom was Col. John Crowell, formerly a member of Congress from Georgia, and for several years In dian Agent. He dwelt in a magnificent residence at Fort Mitchell, near the Chattahoochee river, and not distant many miles from Columbus.— The story of their ancestors is still told in the family, but not boastingly, for they are peaceful, quiet people, who oppose every tendency to osten tation. The writer of this has been often, when a child, at the house of Col. Crowell, and never remarked any peculiarity in the family, although they had such a famous uncle as “Old Noll.” Reference for these facts can bo obtained in part from the history of North Carolina, where they are well authenticated. Fort Van Couvkr, W. T. \ October, Ist ISSB. ) Messrs. Editors : —Herewith I enclose extracts j of letters received from Col. Wright’s command in •_ the Indian country east, of Snake river. The wav is now closed, peace aud security are again restored to this country. It is now to be hoped that such a course of pol icy may be adopted towards the ludians as may for the future insure peace between them and the whites. The Indiana now conquered, and deeply’ impressed with tao utter hopelessness of contending with us in war, are receive such im pressions an i assume such position as our govern ment may in its policy assign them. What that policy should be, I think there can be very little doubt about. The effect of money annuities upon the Indian character, in the judgment of those best informed on the subject, has proved to be decidedly corrup ting and injurious. The establishment of schools, the erection of grist and saw-mills, the distribution of seeds, ag ricultural and mechanical tools and implements, and the encouragement of husbandry and the me chanic arts, judiciously and properly directed, would be productive of more real good to them as a people than one hundred times the same amount paid to them in money. But to effect any good results, from efforts of any kind with the Indian, you must exclude him from general intercourse with the white man, only so far as might be necessary’ to have a su pervision over him, and impart the requisite in struction. To the prompt and energetic action, the com plete, and perfect appointments and organization, the clear, decided, and unmistakeable course of policy, marked out and adopted, by Brigadier Gen. Clarke and the energetic and judicious exe cution of his plans and purposes, by’ the officers especially charged therewith, are due, the suc cessful and happy termination of a war which at one time threatened to be of the most serious and troblesome character. Honor, to whom honor is due. BALDWIN. Extract of a letter from an officer under Col. Wright's Command, in the Spokan Expedition. Camp near Steptoe’s battle ground, ) September 23d, 1858. j “On the 17th inst., a council was held with the Coucr-de-Lenes, their head chief Vincent, opened the Council by rising and saying, ‘My people have committed a great crime; we are fully conscious of it now; and are deeply forry for it. I and my people are rejoiced that you are willing to forgive us for it.’ Col. Wright replied : Couer de Lenes, as your Chief has said you have committed a great crime; y T ou attacked Col. Step toe when ho was marching peacefully through your country, and you slew some of his people. It has made angry your great father, and I have been sent to punish you ; but you ask for peace, and you shall have it, on certain conditions; the great spirit hears me. You sec that you contend against us hopelessly; I have a great many soldiers ; there are as many more at Walla-Walla, and I am expecting a large number from Salt Lake ; what can you do against us ? I can place my soldiers on your camas plains, at y’our fishing grounds, and in the mountains where you catch game and gather berries, and your helpless families cannot run away. These are the conditions on which you shall have peace : You must deliver to me the young men who struck the first blow in the affair with Col. Stcptoe, I will take them to the General.— You must deliver to me one of your chiefs and four of your men with their families, I will take them to Walla-Walla as security for your good conduct hereafter. You must deliver to me all the proper ty of every kind taken at the fight with Col. Step toe. You must allow all troops and all other white men to pass at all times unmolested through your couutry. You must not allow any hostile Indians to come into your country’, and you must not en gage in any hostilities against white men ; be sides 4 yeu must be at peace with the Nes l’erces. On these conditions you can have peace. I will withdraw from your country, and you can have peace forever. Vincent said he wished to hear the Nes Perces speak. U-chi-ma-li-kin, their Chief said; You behold me before you, I will lay my heart open to y’ou: I desire that there shall be peace between us. I will never go to war with you nor against any’ of tho friends of the white man. Vincint replied : It does my heart good and makes all my people glad to have you speak so, I have ever desired peace between us. There shall never be war between us, nor between us aud the white man. Tho pipe of peace was then smoked all round. The conditions were promptly complied with, and we have with us four of the young braves, and a chief and four men with their families as hostages.” Extract of a Letter. Still Later. Camp on Lah-Too Creek, Near Steptoes’ Battle-ground, Sept. 25. We are now on our return to Walla-walla, we have been here three days waiting for the Indians to come in. Col. Wright has made peace with the Spokans, Couer-de-’Lenes and Pow-de-’Orielles. The Palause’s have not come in yet. We have three of them in irons, and Col. Wright has sent word to their people “if they don't come in before he crosses Snake river he will hang them.” The Couer-d-’Lenes send with Colonel Wright one chief and four men, with their families as hostages. The Spokans do the same. The hostages are to remain at Walla-walla one y’ear. Day before yesterday Owhi earae in to make peace, he was confined, and word sent to Qual chin, (his son) if he did not come in his Father would be hung. Qual-chin came in yesterday at 8 o’clock and was hung at 84£ o’clock, (he did not receive the message sent by Col. Wright,) he beg ged hard for his life. The last words he said, were “G—dd—m.” Cami~a-kin. We have nine In dian prisoners in camp. I expect two of them will be hung to-night. We have recovered the two howitzers, (lost by Col. Stcptoe,) also the remains of Capt. Taylor and L.eut, Gaston, together with some others. Your* &e., I. B. £. Telegraphic.

The Fulton arrived at llarbadoes on the 15th ult., in ten days after leaving Norfolk. — Tho Water-Witch arrived at the same place on the 16th ult, eleven days out from Norfolk. The Harriet Lane also arrived at Barbadoes on the 20th ult., having made the passage from N. York in twelve days. The vessels stopped only a few hours, for the purpose of taking in coal, and then sailed for the rendezvous at Montevideo. Nicaraguan Matters.—The State Depart ment has sent an official note to Gen. Jerez, point ing out the impropriety of his course and express ing the dissatisfaction with which the Department regards his publication, warning the public against purchasing tickets for Nicaragua by the steamer Washington. Mr. White, yesterday, sent a note to tho Assis tant Secretary of State, with the request that it be shown to Mr. Cass, denyiug that any of Wal ker’s fillibusters went to Nicaragua in the steamer Washington, and saying that the company will not knowingly permit such persons to go thither in their vessels. The collector of the port of Mobile has been ap plied to for a clearance to a Walker emigrant ves sel, but has referred the question to the Secretary of the Treasury. Comptroller’s Report. We arc indebted to Mr. Thweatt, for a copy of his Report to the Governor. It is neatly printed by Mr. Lomax, State Printer. We have already made copious extracts from advance sheets of the Report furnished us by Mr. Thweatt, and such comments as we felt called upon to make upon the Report. We will only add, that the Legislature would have done the State a good service if it had ordered a thousand copies of this Report printed, instead of about five hundred as was done. The information contained in this Report can be ob tained no where else outside of the State House, and it is invaluable both to Legislators and to of ficers of the State, as well as to the people.— Daily Federal Union. Mahogany Stain.—-The color of mahogany may be imitated with a strong solution of logwood and fustic put on boiling hot with a brush. The color can be reduced to any depth of shade accor ding to the strength of the 1 iqtior employed. After it is quite dry the wood should be varnished and afterwards polished. A varnish made with drag on's blood dissolved in alcohol, and applied in two or three coats will make a. very good imitation of mahogany. When dry it should be rubbed down with rotten-stone and oil. WOOD’S HAIR RESTORATIVE Almost every body has heard of Wood’s Hair Restorative. That the word Restorative in this ease is no misnomer, wo have the testimony of individuals wliose elevated position in the country as well as tlicir acknowledged and honorable cha racter as gentlemen, render whatever they publicly asssertin the last degree reliable. Several of these have tested, personally, the hair preparation we are now speaking of, and certify to its amazing efficacy in the most public manner possible. Their certificates can be seen at the proprietor’s depot, 312 Broadway, New York, and once seen and properly appreciated, we have no hesitation in saying they will impress conviction on the most skeptical mind. Wood’s Hair Restorative is, doubtless, the best article of its kind ever yet pro duced. does not dye, but gives life, health and beauty to the decaying, falling and dead, restoring as if by magic, that which was supposed to be ir recoverably lost. Heads nearly bald, and others nearly white, are daily being changed to their pristine beauty, and faces covered with pimples arß rendered as smooth as an infant’s, and blushing as a rose, all by the use of Prof. Wood’s Hair Re storative.

Those who have seen this Grape are willing to testify in its favor. To those who are unac quainted with it we refer the following testimonial: Columbus, Ga., October 185s. MR. L. GORDY —Dear Sir: W'e the undersigned have seen and eaten of your delicious native Grape, and it affords us much pleasure to state, that we think we have never seen a Grape that would compare with it in excellence aa a prolific bearer, the size of its fruit and bunches, and their une qualled flavor. We hope that you may have astockof growingvines of this valuable Grape sufficient to supply the large de mand you will have for them. We recommend those of our friends who wish to raise the Grape, by all means to purchase vines of you, as your Grape is, in our opinion, less liable to rot, and ripens more uniformly than any other variety that we have seen.

THE undersigned announces to the citizens of Co lumbus. and in fact to al 1 Georgia, that he is now taking Pictures in as good style as they can be taken in the ’-Empire State,” either by a foreign or nattre ar tist. His prices range from that much ° despised sum fifty cents to ten dollars. And although he does not pretend to say that he is the best artist in the United States, yet he fears not the result of a comDarison with those whose reputation is bolstered up by long adver tisements and puffs of their own manufacture. He prefers that ladies and gentlemen should judge for themselves. And if those in want of a good Picture will call and give him a trial, he will convince them that he fully understands the modus operandi of picture taking. All he wants is a fair and impartial trial, and he fears no competition from any quarter. His Gallery is over Barnard’s Store, Broad Street, where he will be happy to receive visitors and show them his specimens at all timet*. G T.
