Tbe Drama.
Of Mr. Fleming and bis dramatic corps now on a
Tit to this city the Savaunah itepnhlican of the
2Vth remarks:
The short season just now passed —ending for
the present this evening—lias been highly suc
cessful, so far at least, as the efforts of Mr. Flem
ing and his corps are concerned. The public has
not responded with houses as good its were deserv
ed, but it is the beginning of the season, and one
marked by the intense business application of most
•f the frequenters of the Athenaeum. The next
representation in order, beginning on the 6th of
December, will be the Knglish Opera. Meanwhile
the dramatic corps will make a visit to Colutubus
where they will open on Monday evening next, and
then at Macon —returning here in two nr three
weeks, or as soon as the first opera season shall
have passed. We warmly recommend Mr. Flem
ing and his company to the theatrical public of
Columbus and 31 aeon, ana mm ttiey m
to us well satisfied with their v isit. If they do not
make a good impression and draw good houses,
we shall be sadly disappointed. They deserve en
couragement, not only for this year’s business, but
as an earnest of the future.
On Thursday evening Mr. Fleming made his
first appearance as Hamlet, lie conceives the
part so well, and plays with so much correct feel
ing, that we arc not surprised at his preference for
the tragic muse, but we adhere to our opinion, that
there is too much heavy work and hard study for
the other actors iu these great Shakesperian pieces
—let alone the fact that they have been played over
much of late years, and that the public taste sets
strongly in favor of those comedies which are
based upon the realities of our own time. Mr.
Fleming huduo reasoy to be dissatisfied with his
reception—and that by a fair house—the best of
the season. In view of this fact, we arc not sure
that our own impressions arc those most accepta
ble to the lovers of histrionic art.
The last representation will take place this even
ing for Mrs. Fleming’s benefit, and vh- can bespeak
for her a good house. She has many friends and
admirers here already, and wc are sure they will
not be unmindful of her claims. “Ingomar” is the
play selected for this occasion, with Mr. Fleming
in the principal character, being his third appear
ance; Mrs. Fleming as “Parthenon* The after
piece will be “Uncle Sam,” in which Mr. Kemble
will appear. Mrs. F. will sing two of her popular
ballads between the pieces.
United Staten Senatorial Election.
Columbia, S. C., Nov. 27, P. M.—There were
two unsuccessful ballots in the South Carolina
Legislature to-day, for United States Senator.—
The second ballot resulted thus :
Ex-Gov. Adams, 37 John McQueen, 22
0. C. Meminger, 80 Col. Manning, 21
K. B. Rhett, 24 James Chestnut. 21
The Next United States Senate. —The
United States Senate—which convenes in De
cember, 1859. and ends on the 4th of March, 1861
-—will be constituted politically as follows :
Northern Democrats, 9 I South'll Opposition 2
Southern Democrats, 28 j North’n< Opposition 2. r >
37 | 27
As Oregon will undoubtedly be admitted into
the Union this winter, with her two 1 nited States
Senators, the Democrats will have twelve majority
over the Opposition on all political questions. —
This estimate gives the Opposition a Senator in
New Jersey and one in Minnesota, which it is
very doubtful whether they will obtain.
Indian Reminiscences —Gen. Tom Wood
ward’s Letters. —The very interesting and valu
able letters written by Geu. Thomas S. Wood
word, now of Louisiana, to the Senior editor of
the Mail and to other persons in Alabama, con
cerning the early history of Alabama, especially
in connection with the first Creek Indian War,
will shortly bo issued from the press iu Montgom
ery, in pamphlet form. These letters will make a
neat little volume of about one hundred and twen
ty-five pages, and will be retailed at half a dollar
each, or sold in quantities of twenty or over, at
twenty-five cents a copy.
Several of the letters have not yet appeared in
print, and will be read with much satisfaction by
all who feel an interest in our early history.
Orders may he addressed to the publishers of
the Montgomery Mail , enclosing the money.
Pacific Railroad. —A petition has been pre
pared and circulated for signatures, praying Con
gress to provide for the construction of a double
track railroad from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
with a collateral telegraph—the work to be done
by ten distinct companies, in as many sections,
each being paid its share of one hundred millions
of dollars as its work may be done. No lands are
to be given; none but American iron and other
materials of American manufacture must be used
the fare for through passenger* must never ex
ceed three-fourths of a cent per mile, and the whole
work must be completed within five years. For
the construction of a Toad upon these conditions,
the petitioners say they “will ever pray.” Wcdo
not doubt it.—-A’. Y. Times.
A Negro Running for Representative in
Maine. —An election for Representative, to fill the
place of Win. Chase, resigned, took place in Port
land, Me., on the 18th inst. Neal Dow, the great
temperance and negro-equality champion, and a
colored man, named Peter Fraud*, were the prin
cipal competitors. There being but an indifferent
selection for candidates, comparatively few votes
were cast, but the people generally preferred the
white mau to the Republican of a darker shade,
and bo “temperance and freedom” triumphed by
a majority of seven hundred and seventy-two
votes.
jjS9*“A despatch from Washington to the N. Y.
Herald , states that
The history of the claims of our citizens against
foreign governments, called for by Senator Benja
min’s resolution, is progressing rapidly at tbe De
partment of State, and will be presented to the
Senate at the earliest possible day. The amount
involved will be found to be very heavy, probably
over fifty millions of dollars.
That portion of the President’s forthcoming
Message referring to Mexican affairs, will show a
strange state of things. The claims of American
eititens against Mexico amount to about fifteen
jNUlions of dollars-
From the Daily Federal Union
Resignation of Hon. John K. Ward.
SENATE.
Saturday, November 27.
Mr. Hill of Harris introduced a set of Resolu
tions as follows:
Whereas; we have learned with profound regret
that the Honorable John E. Ward of the county
of Chatham, is about to resign his seat as Sena
tor, Therefore be it Resolved, that his connection
with us has been agreeable, urbane and manly.and
as President of ibe Senate, he has shown himself
prompt, impartial and efficient. That Chatham
county, will loose a faithful Representative, and j
the Senate of Georgia a presiding officer second to
none. In his contemplated mission, may the
Ruler of all things guard and protect him in the
laud of the Stranger and so shape his labors that 1
they may redound to the interest and glory of
China and America. The resolutions were taken j
up, read, and passed without a dissenting rou e.
The lion. John E. Ward then arose and ad
dressed the Senate as follows:
Senators: —The relationshship which has so
long, and on my part, eo pleasantly existed be
tween us, is about to be terminated. When more
than twelve months since 1 4 was elevated by your
kindness, to the position which 1 am now about
to resign into your bauds, and vested with the
powers which 1 now surrender back to you; from
this place I gave the pledge, that T would dis
charge the duties of that position—that T would
exercise those powers faithfully, honestly and
impartially: how far I have been enabled to re
deem that pledge is for your decision. On tin
part, as your presiding officer, I have received
only icffjrcvt iui<i kin<lticp!s. It would be strange,
indeed,if I could, without regret, part from such
a body. If I could, without emotion, to such men
I would say farewell. Upon that floor, as the Se
nator from the county of Chatham, , 1 have en
deavored to be true alike to my immediate con
stituents, and to the people of this State.
Engaged as wc have been, in the discussion of
questions of most intense and exciting interest
to our constituents —questions, in the solution ol
which, within the broad limits of our State, there
was no man too rich, no man too poor to be in
different. It was certainly not to have been ex
pected, hardly to have been desired, that there
should not have been an earnestness which may
have produced irritation, perhaps temporary
alienation.
But all this must long since have passed away,
before the consciousness that each Senator was but
struggling to advance or to defeat such measures
as be believed would promote or injure the best in
terests of his State.
Popular applause in this country is the due,
the only reward of the faithful public servant. It
is most natural, that he should seek to win, and
when won, to prize it, yet he may sometimes be
called upon to sacrifice oven this legitimate object
of ambition, to tread the rugged path of duty.
God give me strength ever thus to act, though
every friend forsake, and 1 be doomed to walk
that path alone.
I had hoped that our separation would have
been only at the close of tbe present session, but
I have been suddenly summoned to enter upon
the discharge of other duties. In their perform
ance, I must leave my State and my country. 11
I may but promote the prosperity of that State,
and advance the interests of that country, my am
bition will have been gratified.
Neither time nor distance can efface from my
memory the recollection of Georgia. Beneath
her bright sun, fortune rocked my cradle! By
her sea-girt shore was the home of my infancy,
the play-place of my childhood ! Beneath her
sod, moulder the ashes of the loved and lost.
I may have differed from many of her true sons
upon that policy which would best promote her
glory. In the hour of her prosperity, with peace
and plenty within her borders, in the contempla
tion of ber own motto, I may have too closely
studied “moderation,” but (let the storm gather
around her, let her be plunged into conflict, (right
or wrong,) with any power under the canopy of
Heaven, and wherever duty or pleasure may have
called me, in whatever service I may be engaged,
her first cry, echoing across lands and seas, and
oceans, shall strike upon my ear, and as the weary
child flies for rest to its mother’s arms, so will I
hack to her bosom, to mingle with her sons, with
them to triumph, or with them to fall.
Senators: The hour having arrived when, by
your rules, I am required to declare the Senate
adjourned until 3 o’clock this afternoon, ami hav
ing placed my resignation in the hands of your
Secretary, as your presiding officer, I have per
formed my last official act. As your companion
and friend I bid von farewell.
.1 udge Allen a Candidate.
By reference to our advertising columns it will
be seen that Judge Allen is a candidate for the
Judgeship at the ensuing election. This an
nouncement may well take every one by surprise,
for reasons we will mention.
Ist.He owes his election to the place he now oc
cupies, to the nomination of the Democratic party
which he cheerfuly accepted, and took the benefit
of. He now repudiates the action of t’ a t party.
2d. He plainly avowed himself not a candidate
for re-election, by a letter published in the Bain
bridge Argus. He now repudiates that.
3dßefore the convention assembled which made
the present nomination, he gave his assurance, in
writing, that ‘‘he could not consent to retire (from
the candidacy) only at the bidding of the Dern
ocoatic party —that there would, he presumed.be
a Convention, and that he should most cheerfully
abide its action.” He now repudiates that.
4th. He declined to he a candidate to avoid a
‘•heated contest.” He now repudiates that . be
comes a candidate to produce a “heated contest.”
The frequent reversal of Judge Allen by the
Supreme Court has been the .subject of complaint.
It can be said in his defence, that this he could
not help. But the public cannot excuse such re
versals of himself. —Albany Patriot.
“More Groaning Under Railroad Taxes.—
The farmers of Dubuque, lowa, who allowed the
county to subscribe tbeir credit to the Dubuque
and Pacific Railroad, now want to get rid of pay
ing the interest, as the railroad pays nothing.—
The Philadelphia Ledger says:
They have determined to test the constitution
ality of the question as to whether they are bound
to pay the railroad tax. The ground on which it
is resisted is, that the railroad company did not
comply with the conditions of the loan. This
would be a much better and honester plea in a suit
against the railroad company than against those
who in good faith purchased the bonds. While
the farmers of lowaare grumbling at paying debts
already contracted, they have another scheme be
fore them proposing that the State issue a loan
and assume a debt often or fifteen millions of dol
lars, to aid certain railroads which will tax the
people as many dollars as they now pay cents. —
The argument is that it will benefit the State. If
it does not benefit the State there will be future
arguments for repudiating the debt.
The Paraguay Fleet Wanted for Mexico.
Wc printed yesterday an interesting letter from
an ex-British naval officer to the London Jtaily
Xcirs, upon the subject of the expedition which
our government has just despatched to Paraguay.
From the care and circumstantiality evinced in
this letter there can be but little doubt that its
facts and conclusions have been drawn from the
Dictator himself. The writer of the communica
tion in question has, it appears, lately arrived in
London from Asuncion, with the Paraguayan
youth who weut to London by Lopez’s orders to
finish their education. The writer attempts to
excuse the attack of Lopez's forts upon the Water
Witch, and defends Lopez against the statements
made by the American company, which claims
indemnity for having been broken up after recog
nition by the Dictator. Furtker, the writer pleads
in favor of Paraguay, saying that we can ruin
her if we so desire, and though there is here and
there a little bravado, yet the thing looks through
out a good deal like a white flag or an olive
branch.
Now, to set the matter right before the people,
we again remind our English cotemporary of one
fact: Our government has sent a special com
missioner to Paraguay to arrange certain matters
in dispute between the governments. That com- ,
missioned i? escorted by a respectable naval force, I
but he goes on a mission of peace, and prooeeds
to the capital alone, and exactly in the same man
ner that any ordiu^ v y diplomat, under ordinary
circumstances, would adopt. He will investigate
everything and act fairly and liberally in every
way. The contingency that the fleet will be used
for anything more than a show is so remote as to
be almost beyond the bounds of probability. Lo
pez will find Judge Bowlin prepared to treyt with
Paraguay in a perfectly fair way.
It is well, however, that this Paraguayan fleet
has been fitted out. It is not at all improbable
that in view of the complication of Mexican affairs
there will be work for it in the Gulf, where the
vessels should be concentrated immediately, and,
with as many more as can be got ready for sea. or
dered to wateh ibe operations of .Spain, which
Power, supported by France and England, now
menaces Mexico. Our interests forbid us to think
fora moment *f allowing any of these Powers to
obtain a hold upon the frontier of the United
States. H e are the nearest neighbor of Mexico,
and must shield her from the attacks of European
Powers. As soon as possible the Paraguay fleet
should joe mustered under the guns of Han Juan de
f 100. The Paraguay affair is a flea bite in com
parison with the great events that are coming in
the Gulf.— X. Y. lieruhl.
! senators From North (aroiiua.
We ‘learn from Italeigh that a caucus of the
democratic members of the North Carolina legis
lature has agreed upon candidates for the federal
Senate to till the vacancy occasioned by the resig
nation of Judge Biggs, arid the one about to oc
cur bv the expiration of Gov. Reid’s term of ser
vice.
We are glad to learu that,for the first of these
vacancies Air. Clingman has been nominated by
acclamation : and. as the democratic nomination
is equivalent to an election, we have the happi
nc” to congratulate Mr. O.’s numerous friends
and political admirers of his certain election to
the Senate.
For the prospective vacancy we learn that, after
a few ballot-tings, Governor Thomas Bragg, the
present able and popular Executive of North
Carolina, has been named by his party. We ex
ceedingly regret t-1 >• loss of so sterling a democrat
as Senator Reid ; urn the federal legislature, of
which he has b< u one of the most useful mem
bers a long tin ■, and regret that considerations
of locality should have operated to his prejudice
as a resident in the western portion of the State :
but. if we must needs lose Mr. Reid, no man from
all eastern North Carolina could have been found
more acceptable by reputation to the democracy
of the Union than Gov. Bragg.
North Carolina may well be congratulated on
the prospect of being represented iu the Senate
by two gentlemen of the ability and popularity of
Messrs. Clingman and Bragg.— Wash. I ‘/non.
.lambi Taken by the Dutch.
One of the items brought by the steamship City
of Baltimore, and published in yesterday’s Herald,
was thatJambi was taken by T the Dutch. It is
almost identical with the old joke that the Dutch
had taken Holland. Jambiis a town of Sumatra
—one of those Dutch islands in the Indian archi
pelago made familiar to American readers by Capt.
Gibson’s romantic story- of the Castle of Weltevre
den. .lambi is a small town on the island <pf Sum
atra, having* a population of only some three thou
sand, and being the capital of an independent State
of tbe same name. The inhabitants are Malays,
and arc not much troubled with religious ideas.—
If the invaders had belonged to any other race of
people than the Dutch, we might, in our general
ignorance of the cause of quarrel, have been led
into the supposition that the missionary enterprise
was at the bottom of it. As it is, we must be sat
isfied with the supposition that the Jambese peo
ple had given some cause of offence to the Dutch
authorities at Palcmbaug, and that this was the
teterrima ettusa belli. Whatever the cause of
quarrel, however, Jambi is in possession of the
Dutch, and, as it does not appear that they* are
treadiug on onr corns, we may wish them a good
bargain in it. Conquest and annexation seem to
be the order of the day. Whose turn next?— N. Y
Herald.

The Slave Trade —Resolutions and Speech of .Mr.
MrtZjeß.
The interest felt in the ease of the slaver Echo,
about to be tried in the Federal Court in this dis
trict has lu'ade itself manifest thus early in the
Senate of the State, in the following resolutions
introduced into thx?t body r by Senator Mazvck:
Resolved, That the Constitution of the United
States contains no grant of power to regulate, pre
vent or restrict commerce among foreign relations;
and, therefore, all acts of Congress purporting to
prohibit or interfere with the slave trade, between
foreign countries, are unconstitutional, and have
no rightful force or effect.
Resolved, That the act of Congress declaring
the slave trade to be piracy, if it be understood as
affirming that it is piracy’ in the nature of things,
and in the sense of the Constitution, affirms what
is not true; aud inasmuch as it purports and in
tends to convert into piracy’ what is not so in the
nature of things, and in the sense of the Constitu
tion, the said act is unconstitutional, null and
void.
By a vote of twenty-five yeas, to fifteen nays, the
resolutions were referred to the Committe on Fed
eral Relations.
Christianity in China.
It is not a little remarkable that four of the most
powerful nations of the earth, in negotiating with
the most populous of all the Pagan nations, should
have united, as they have done, in securing in
that nation the free diffusion of the Christian re
ligion. The Russian Treaty secures “protection
for all who shall embrace Christianity, the same
as enjoyed by other religionists tolerated in the
Empire.”
The American Treaty secures that. “Any per
sons, whether American citizens or Chinese con
verts. who, according to its tenets, peaceably teach
and practice the principles of Christianity, shall,
in no case, be interfered with or molested.”
The English Treaty says: “Persons teaching or
professing Christianity, shall be entitled to pro
tection,” Ac.
The French Treaty runs: “No obstacle shall
be interposed by the Chinese authorities to the re
cognized right of any persons in China to embrace
Christianity, obey its requirements, without being
subject to any penalty. Missionaries to bo un
molested,” Ac.
These treaty stipulations show, says the Boston
Traveler:
1. That the Christian religion has a command
ing power in the sentiments of the rulers of the
rnunt powerful nations of the earth. It is a recog
nized institution of great moral value, and is pro
vided for in the most solemn transactions between
the empires of the earth.
2. That Christianity was to die in less than fif
ty years, was the confident anticipation of the
most distinguished infidels who were ontheearth
half a century ago. These treaties show it has
lived. These prophets, where are they ?
3. These treaties will conduce, beyond ques
tion, to the rapid spread of the Christian faith
throughout the long benighted Empire of China,
removing many hitherto formidable obstacles.
4. This recognition of Christianity as an insti
tution. and providing for its protection as it
spreads, is a powerful encouragement to its friends
to use their most vigorous efforts for its universal
diffusion.— Char. Courier.

the use of one single bottle of this medicine proved
of incalculable benefit, having freed the stomach
from all sense of depression, and removed every
symptom of dyspepsia. 1 would also remark,
