t’OLI’WB! S. FRIDAY. DEI'F.MBhR 17, INS-S. 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. North British Review. Messrs. Leonard, Scott f- Uo.’s re-publication of the North British Review for Nov., has been re ceived.

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 to he accommodated by other Banks. heorgla Annual I onfirrenre. sr.com* day’s proceedings. Dec. Ift, ISJS —9 o’clock, a. m. Conference was opened with religious service by the venerable Dr. Loviek Pierce. Minutes of yesterday were read and con firmed. Pov, ,J. ,S. Key was excused from the committee on Education, and Rev. J. 11. Caldwell appointed in his place. A memorial was read from C. Austin, a with drawn member, making some complaints about the action of the church in his case. Referred to Ia special committee composed of Rev s. A\ .H.E% - an?, and Win. Arnold. The papers pertaining to the trial of Rev Noah Smith were read. The case was made the special order for Monday next. Rev. Mr. Ware of the Virginia Conference was introduced to the Conference. The names of several preachers who had been on trial one year were read and they were contin ued on trial. Rev. Charles Taylor, General Secretary of the Sunday School Society, addressed the Conference on the subject of Sabbath Schools. His remaiks were eloquent and well timed, and it is hoped will inspire the preachers to more zeal in this noble cause. Conference resolved to hold anniversary of Sunday School Society to night—the missionary sermon to be preached to morrow night. The following persons who have traveled two years and are eligible to Deacons’ orders and to membership in tho Conference, were called up and addressed by the Bishop. Robert AY Lo\ ett, C A Mitchell, Jacob C Neese, Goodman Hughes, A\ r A Parks, AV T M(•Michael, A M Thigpen, Geo II Pattillo, John AV Reynolds and AA r II Moss. All of these brethren were elected to Deacons’ orders and admitted as members of the Conference, ex cept Goodman Hughes, whose case was laid over. Arminius AY right was re-admitted as a member of this Conference. Rev. Mr. Landreth, from Kentucky, was intro duced to the Conference, who with, Rev A Gra ham of Florida, was reported as transferred to this Conference. A II Ogletree was located at his own request. Smith Davenport discontinued at his own re quest. Jas D Junkin discontinued ar his own request, on account of ill health. After several notices, the Conference adjourned till to-morrow. Congressional. Wasin no ton, Dec. 14.—Nothing of general in terest transpired in the Senate to-day.

In the House, the Watrous impeachment ease was decided. That body refused to impeach the Judge by a vote of ninety-one to one hundred and thirteen. Indian Troubles on the Plains. St. Lot is, Dec. 15.—The new Mexico mail of 22d Nov. has arrived. The Navajo war threatens to last for years. It was reported that the mail party from Albu querque to Neosho were massacred by the Ch ina nehes. Nothing has been heard of the mail party that left Neosho for Albuquerque on the 15th of Oc tober. iy .Thc steamer Augusta reached her wharf yesterday forenoon, and the Huntsville during the afternoon. The Augusta brought $85,000 in coin ; $50,000 for the Marine Bank, $20,000 for Mechanics’ Sav ing Bank, and 515.000 for E. tho J/olyneux, Esq. 5a r. Rep. lfi/A. Extensive Forgeries at St. Loris. —For- geries amounting to several thousand dollars have been recently perpetrated successfully at St. Louis by a sharper dressed as a countryman, who ob tained, ingeniously, the cheeks t>f various firms, for small amounts, in exchange for specie, from which ho afterwards adroitly forged cheeks for large eums. He escaped with bis plunder. 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 4 (’• ••sn’”,"'nil -ops stipulationsforcon- Tor mail service alone wi Jdcr ua ““ HF 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.— Washington States. 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.” New Counties. The Legislature created seven new counties, at the session just closed, viz : . Clayton, from parts of Fayette and Henry. Banks, from parts of Habersham, Hall, and Franklin. , ~ „ Quitman, from parts of Stewart and Lai dolph. . Nelson, from a portion of Gordon. Echols, from portions of Clinch and Lowndes. Johnson, from portions of Montgomery, an several others not recollected. Brooks, from portions of Lowndes and Ihoma.-. The last three are attached to the Ist Congress ional District. The whole number of counties in the State now stands at one hundred and thirty three.—Sav.

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.
