Sunday School s-Rev. (harles Taj Inr.
Tho value of Sabbath School is>ruction cannot
bo too highly estimated by any denomination of
Christians. To train up children in paths of vir
tue and morality—to plant into the soil “I their
young hearts, germs whose fruit ripens foreternity,
is the duty of every parent and is worthy the at
tention of every ecclesiastical body.
Rev. Charles Taylor, formerly missionary to
China, and the prewnt Agent of Methodist Sab
bath Schools South, made a few appropriate re
marks yesterday, upon this subject in the confer
ence assembled here, which we regret we cannot
fully report for our readers. He said, that with
the exception of his own Conference (S. Carolina)
he felt mere at home in this than any other South.
That to Georgia was due the credit of creating the
office he held, and that she took tho lead in effici
ent Sabbath School organizations. That as a
church, the Methodists were criminally negligent
in instructing the children grown up under their
care. The church Journals and Sabbath School
statistics bore witness to this tiu’t. I rcquently
there were no report from entire conferences, the
subject was ignored and the result was that chil
dren of methodist parents were swallowed up in
the world and left to the wiles and snares of the
Devil. He showed the necessity of early relig
ious training—that as the tree in the orchard had
to he bound down with chords, that it might grow
up in beauty and symmetry, so the child should
be restrained from evil ways, that it might he edu
cated in moral beauty and excellence. His plan
of Sabbath School Agencies was that adopted by
the Sunday School Union. That of making each
minister in charge of a church an agent —let him
have tiie co-operation of tho official members and
there would he a Sabbath Shcool at every ap
pointment. It was the best plan and would save
much expense. Agents for each State were not
expedient. Mr. Taylor then exhorted the Con
ference to energy upon this subject—that perse
verance was the motto—that Sabbath Schools
were the nurseries of the church and the ministry
—that preachers who cherished a hope of immor
tality, should impress upon the minds and hearts
of children the gospel truths—that when the
Sabbath School interest flourished, every other
church interest would flourish and have an active
growth.
(iov. Brown’s Administration.
The administration of Joseph E. Brown, the
present democratic Governor of this State, has
been, from the period of his inauguration to the
present moment, successful and satisfactory to the
people. In giving the meed of praise to his ad
ministration, we do not detract one i<>ta from tho
glory attained by other administrations. Wc
simply “give unto Ctesar the things which are
Caesars.” AYe do not endorse every recommenda
tion which Gov. Brown has made to the Legisla
ture, especially his suggestion about State aid
with “ample security” in his late message, but
his tion as a whole has been so wise and
and economical, that he justiy merits (he piauuU
of “well-done, thou good and faithful servant’’
from every holiest man in the State. AA e need
not refer to the acts of his administration in proof
of wliut wo say—we need not allude to liis hold
independent course in displacing officers—adher
ing to true and correct principles and his success
ful management of the .State affairs to vindicate
us in awarding to him what justice demands.—
We mean simply to echo the sentiments of the
people in wishing the shafts of malice thrown at
him to be broken and that he will remain another
term in the office which be now fills with so much
credit to his party and honor to the State.
Com. Mclntosh’s Correspondence.
AVASiNftTON, Dec. 15.—President Buchanan
communicated to Congress to-day (but not in time
to be presented,) the official correspondence be
tween Commodore Mclntosh and the British offi
cers at San Juan. Com. Mclntosh pronounces
the explanation of those British officers as satis
factory, fair and frank.
It is understood that the President makes no
recommendation of any course or policy to be
pursued.
Rnuk of Columbus.
We published on yesterday a statement of the
condition of the above Institution, made in re
sponse to a recent proclamation by the Governor.
AVe are gratified that it is able to make such a sat
isfactory showing to tho public. Such, however,
was expected from the able and efficient manage
ment which controls its operations. Its account
with depositors, being in round numbers $143,-
000 00, in their favor, is a sufficient proof of the
high confidence which our community feel in the
integrity of this Bank. It has recently, in right of
its chartered privilege, largely increased its capi
tal stuck, and the eagerness with which the amount
was subscribed, the demand greatly overrunning
the limit, is another gratifying evidence of the
same fact. AYe predict for it a profitable and use
ful career.

Bank a: Bainbridgc.
As au evidence of the prejudice existing against
banks, the good people of Bainbridgc were re
fused a charter to establish one by the last legis
lature. Every safeguard was engrafted into the
charter, while on its passage in the Senate, such as
making the stockholders personally liable for the
whole amount of the capital stock-giving the
Legislature authority to forfeit the charter Ac
but the bill was defeated in tho House. Mr Col’
quitt, the Representative from Baker, advocating
the passage of the bill, stating that there were re
i frictions thrown around the bill „* provilion9
embraced in the charter not contained in any other
Bank charter in the State. The bill was, however,
defeated and the citizens of Bainbridgc will have

Report of the Postmaster General.
In the postal svstem of the country every one
feels a personal iiitcrest. and the annual report of
its operations is consulted to discover what steps
have been taken, or are proposed to perfoct its re
sults, extend its benefits, and curtail within due
bounds, its necessary expenditures. From a care
ful perusal of the present report of Gov. Brown,
we are prepared to say that it will not suffer
comparison with any preceding one for fullness
of information, or a masterly grasp of the subject
confided to his administrative care. Every part
of the document in#cates personal supervision and
knowledge, even of minute detail, on the part of
its author. To appreciate properly the labor thus
involved, we must consider that this is a system
employing some thirty-six thousand subordinates
and contractors, extending to every State, county,
and village of our vast confederacy, and for the
adequate discharge of a large portion of the trust,
requiring a study of our relations with foreign
Powers, a knowledge of the routes and intrica
cies of foreign commerce, and an enlightei#d in
sight into the growth and prospective exigencies
of a people whose progress has so far exceeded all
calculation or prophecy.
No section of country has had its wants neglec
ted. The great routes from New \ork, Phila
delphia and Baltimore, westward, have been made
more certain, regular, and rapid, by the employ
ment of agents to take charge of the through mails
to the great cities of the West and Northwest;
while for old service between this and New Or
leans, which not long since took from six to seven
days, with frequent and repeated failures, we have
a reliable service in five days, with the prospect
ofa speedy reduction to three and a half. In view
of such results, the Postmaster General has wise
ly refrained from adding the route from New
York to New Orleans, across Florida via Cedar
Keys and by ocean steamers for the rest of the
trip.
The routes upon the Mississippi, from St. Loins
down, have been reduced in expense, and the
speedy completion of the Southern system ol rail
roads will greatly add to their celerity.
The success of tho overland semi-weekly mail
from the Mississippi river to San Francisco is an
nounced, but we are not informed in tho report as
to the time taken for the performance of the trips,
the number of letter.-, conveyed in this mode, or
the expense the .mvolved on the public treasury.
By reference t , the last annual report of Gov.
Browu, we fir I this expense to he $600,000 per
annum. If oar information be correct, the offset
of benefit to ; his expenditure is that mails are car
ried in twenty-seven or twenty-eight days from
St. Louis to San Francisco, partly through Mexi
can territory, and by a route where they aro lia
ble to attack at every moment from hostile Indi
ans, and that the insecurity of the route is so pal
pable that a demand has been made on the Presi
dent for a chain of military posts, exceeding in
expense probably the sum paid for carrying the
mails. AA r edo not see how Gov. Brown could have
omitted to put the line into operation agreeably to
the wishes of Congress, and we are satisfied that
he has shown great care and judgment in the se
lection of a proper route , but we fear that this
heavy expense is without adequate return to the
country in the only legitimate way of increased
and reliable mail facilities.
Tho opening of the Tehauntepcc route and its
success, is an event of the age; a great step in
the progress of civilization and commerce; and
for his agency in this work the Postmaster Gener
al will receive the thanks of the country. Tho
importance and benefit of this great enterprise to
the South and Southwest —to the valley of the
Mississippi, to Mexico, and to the rising empire
of the Pacific coast, it is impossible to over-esti
mate. The arguments for the establishment oi
this line, in the face of a powerful and interested
opposition, are set forth in letters to the chairman
of the House Committee on Post Offices and Post
Roads with a broad and statesmanlike vigor which
left no room for successful reply. The route is a
success, and New Orleans will soon be brought
within thirteen days of San Francisco.
The Postmaster General sets forth with clear
ness the expenditures of his department, and sub
mits suggestion to relieve the- present heavy charge
upon the treasury which, in the present financial
juncture, are well worth the consideration of Con-
I gross, _ i .,T.be ir 9re three: the acceptance of bids

mu postage on letters from three to five cents
each, and the substitution of stamps for tho use
of members of Congress in lieu of the present
franking privilege. By the first two it is suppos
ed some four millions and a half would be gained.
The estimated saving by the last measure is not
given ; but it is fair to assume it would be very
considerable.
There are other points of this interesting report
which we propose to notice at some future day.—

American Enterprise. —ln crossing the
Plains from Mendorza to San Luis, South Amer
ica,Lieut. Strain met. an intelligent American who
had crossed the Andes and pushed his way thus
far into the unfrequented regions of the South.—
The pursuit of Science, Strain supposed, had led
an enthusiastic votary to undertake this distant
tour into the semi-civilized region. Great was
his astonishment to find that the traveler was an
agent for au American patent medicine.
Rc-Upenlng of the African Slave Trade.
Two hundred and seventy-seven of the cargo of
Africans recently landed near Brunswick, were
brought up the Savannah river, and put ashore
yesterday evening about 3 o’clock, at tbe mouth
of Horse Creek, three miles below this city on the
Carolina side. One of the river boats is supposed
to have taken them from the boat which brought
them by Savannah in the night, to a point twelve
miles above that city.
AA’e learn on good authority that the original
cargo consisted of 420, and that not one of them
died, or was seriously ill on the passage. It is
supposed that the Wanderer acted only as a de
coy boat, and that the vessel that brought them
is at large. Citizens of our city are probably in
terested iu the enterprise, and those brought up
the river are supposed to be their share of “the
spoils” and have been distributed on their planta
tions. It is quietly hinted that this is tho third
cargo landed by the same company during the
last six months. —Augusta Dispatch.
Mount Vernon.—The first instalment for the
purchase of this sacred spot was paid a few days
ago to John A AA 7 ashington, by George AA r Riggs,
Treasurer of the Ladies’ Mount Vernon Associa
tion. The sum paid was $57,000, with interest.
The “Mouut Vernon Record,” published in
Philadelphia, and from which the above is taken,
says that a large sum is yet to be obtained, and
making an appeal to the peoplo at large, it sug
gests, among other modes of raising the required
sum, the establishment of clubs in all parts of the
country for sending for Stuart’s gold mounted
oil portrait, which the Association offers at the
small price of one dollar each.
Naval Depot in North Carolina. —AVe are
pleased to learn, says the Norfolk Argus, that
Secretary Toucey will issue an order to the Board
of Examiners, to report without further delay on
the sites for a Naval Depot of Construction in
North Carolina. The rich coal and iron mines in
Chatham county, indicate that as the favorite spot.
An attempt will be made to unite with this depot
the national foundry authorized by Congress.
Remarkable Ignorance. —Recent Loudon pa
pers contain the report of the Rev. Mr. Camclton,
to the magistrates of the county of Essex, which
shows a most deplorable amount of ignorance.
He says:
••To afford any idea of the mass of ignorance
brought into contact with tbe humane provision,
it may suffice to adduce 453 eases of prisoners
committed for felony during the past year, of
whom only nine possessed a due acquaintance
with the Christian religion ; that is seventy-six
oases, there existed a total ignorance of the name
of the Saviour, and that from the conversation of
ont mn on tb subject, it &m? out that tbe
knowledge of the fact of tbo crucifixion not only
excluded the idea of the atonement, but repicsen
ted to his mind that our blessed Lord died ju-tlj
for a breach of human laws : t hat to this deplora
ble deficiency in religious knowledge must be ad
ded an equal proportion of ignorance of the nio.t
common things, even extending to the euneut
month of the year.”

WOOD’S HAIR RESTORATIVE.
Among all preparations for the hair that have
been introduced as infallible, none has ever given
the satisfaction or gained the popularity that
Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative now has. His
Restorative has passed the ordeal of innumerable
fashionable todets, and the ladies, wherever they
have tested it,pronounce it a peerless article. They
find, where the hair is thinned, that it creates a
fresh growth —that it fully restores the vegetative
power of the roots on the denuded places, and
causes the fibres to shoot forth anew —that it dis
solves and removes dandruff, prevents gray ness,
restores the hair to its original color when grny
ness ha actually supervened, gives a rich lustre,
imparts the sofuess and flexibility of silk to tne
hair, and keeps it always luxuriant, healthy and
in full vigor. —JYcw York Tribune.
