~~sbu*Bts, SATrnuiY, iMMini u, vm Pact Be Bull mad. A bill for the construction of thi- road is now under discussion in the United States Senate. It was introduced by Senator Gw in, who is advocat ing it with zeal and ability. The propriety of using American iron and contracting for three hundred thousand toon was discussed. It was argued that wc should not use foreign iron that English manufacturers had lowered their price ton dollars a ton for the purpose of breaking Ameri can manufacturers. Messrs. Clingman and Iver son argued that this was a very expensive rivalry (?) on the part of the English government, for as the English manufacture four millions of tons an uually, ten dollars would represent forty millions. That we might as well say that American cotton planters have lowered the price ol cotton to break down the competition of Algeria. Mr. Wilson, however, offered a substitute for .Mr. G win's bill, proposing government aid direct. This will open the old question of internal im provement on the part of the General Government, and wc may exjajct to hear the arguments in fa vor of the Buffalo and New Orleans Railroad, and the Mavsvillc road galvanized into life by Mr. Wilson and his friends. The following is Mr. Wilson’s bill: The President and Senate shall appoint five civil engineers, practically experienced in the laying out of and construction ol railroads, who, within two years shall locate the route of the rail road from the Missouri lliver to Sun Francisco, through the region of the mol t->d paral lels. If the Prcsideut approves of their decision, the railroad, as located by them, shall be built by the Government, under the direction ol a Hoard, to consist of the Secretaries ol Wurand the Interior, the Postmaster General, and the Attorney Gener al, who shall contract with the lowest bidder for its construction, in sections of not more than twenty-live miles in length. Money to build the road shall be raised by loan as needed, in sums of not more than $10,000,000 annually. • From the passage of the act till the locution ol the road> all public lauds between the aforesaid parallels shall bo withheld lroin sale, hut shall be open to pre-emption by actual settlers. After the road is located, the proceeds of the gale of lauds, for one hundred and fifty miles on each side, shall constitute a fund for the construc tion of the road, and the payment of tlie debt in curred for it. Mr. Wilson proposes this on the ground that the Pacific Railroad is a public necessity, and that there is no hope that private capital will invest in it. If done at all it must be done by govern ment. Christmas in Columbus. To-day is Christmas ! What joy and pleasure it brings to happy young hearts, and how it awakens in the bosom of the old, tions ! In Columbus it is celebrated us is a car nival over the waters. All, more or less, feel its , influence and welcome its advent.

It is decorated beautifully, and displays the most exquisite taste. Wc will not attempt a description, lest wc do injustice to the Ladies. Suffice it to say, it will do for inspec tion, and is suitable for the service to-day, “At Christmas bermerry and be thankful withal And feast thy poor neighbors, the great with the smell.” Congress. Tho Senate, yesterday, passed a joint resolu tion, providing for an adjournment from Dec. 23d to January 4th. Mr. Crittenden gave notice that he would call up the French spoliation bill on the 6th prox. The Pacific Railroad bill coming up, Mr. Wilson offered a substitute, a synopsis of which will bo found in telegraphic report. Mr. Foster moved au amendment to the hill, that the road should be built exclusively of American iron, which, after considerable debate, was carried by a vote of 25 to 23. Mr. Rice then spoke at some length in favor of liis bill introduced last Thurs day. aud a synopsis of which will bo found in the report. Mr. Rice introduced a hill organizing the Territory of Dakotah, pending which the Sen ate adjourned. in the House, a resolution was adopted direct ing the Committee of Ways and Means to inquire into the expediency of au appropriation for the Bth census. The consideration of the bill grant ing pensions to the soldiers of the war of 1812 was then resumed, but uo action was taken. Notice was given of a bill regulating the duty on imports. A resolution was adopted, calling upon the Sec retary of the Treasury for information in regard to the exports and imports of the United States from 1853 to 1857. The House then concurred with the Senate resolution, providing for an ad journment from Dec. 23 to Jan. 4. [. Journal of Commerce, Dee. 21. Ceatral America. It is expected that Sir Win. Gore Ouseley will conclude his treaty with Nicaragua in January, by which the Mosquito protectorate will be aban doned, Grey town ceded to Nicaragua as a free port , the Bay Islands surrendered to Honduras, and the Isthmus routes declared neutral and open to the commerce of the world. This done, Sir Wm. Gore Ouseley returns home, the British dominion in Central America becomes numbered mong the thing! that hare been. Tammany a*4 AnU-Tamaaay Democrat*. It is known to the Democrats of the country, that their brethren in New York find it is difficult to dwell together in unity. There U generally some local issue to separate and divide them into parties, so that they are often defeated by the con sequence of their own folly. The President, it seems, has healed the last division by a compro mise alike honorable t* both sides —Tammany is now to be recognized an the only legitimate or ganization of the Democratic party id New T ork, and all factions hostile to it are to he discounten anced. The happiest results are anticipated to flow from this peace-treaty, a? the democracy uni ted are strong enough to overcome all opposition. Messrs. Augustus Schell and Isaac \ . Fowler were present at the White House when tho contract for harmony and unity was signed, and we trust that i the bond of union is now effectually sealed. The League. It did not propose to build up a political party , and it did not do so, because the principle, or fact, that it was intended to combat, has not yet occur- j red, perhaps. But its objects were laudable, and worthy the hearty support of every true Southern man. The League was premature, but let the leaguers hold themselves in readiness for the oc currence of the event which they deplore, and they will find plenty to their ranks. We shall ask the privilege ourselves of doing duty to the South, in our humble way, by their side. — Tnskegee Repub lican. In the separation of Rev. Mr. Wrss from his congregation here, we can but add that the Church parts with a devoted, untiring Pastor, a pious and zealous Christian, and the entire com munity lose an exemplary citizen, whose return, at any future time, they will gladly welcome. Ilis j colleague (Rev. Mr. Austin,) by his gentlemanly doportincnt and uniform Christian courtesy, has likewise won an enviable position in the affections j of the Church and our people, generally. —Eos. j Enquirer. Hon. Jeremiah Clemens —This gentleman, ox- United States Senator from Alabama, is writing, it is said, a novel entitled “The Rivals: a Tale of the Times of Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamil ton.” The Memphis Eagle & Enquirer, confirms the report that the gentleman is about to take | the editorial charge of that peper. It says : “Standing upon a great national platform, he will advocate the Union as it is, and the Consti tution as it is, aud repel all sectional encroach ments.” It by no means follows that because Mr. Clem ens sustained a respectable position in the U S Senate, or can write a story at his leisure, he can edit successfully a daily journal. It requires pe culiar tact and talent to succoed in this branch of head work. The printer, if not the spirit, will say unto him, “write,” and keep saying it every day, whether he feels like doing it or not. And not only to write every day, but to write well, sensibly, and to survey the whole field of society, to treat every conceivable subject with thousands of eyes looking on to detect the slightest defects, or the least tripping. It is not strange that so many fail to go unscathed through the ordeal. — We wish Mr. Clemens entire success, especially since he is to be connected with one of the stauch est and ablest papers among our Western ex- j changes albeit it does not always properly give us : credit for tho a. tides it does us the honor to copy j from our columns. — Com. Balt. House of Representatives. Washington, Dec. 20. Mr. Hughes, of Ind., introduced a resolution instructing the Committee on Ways and Means to inquire into the expediency of reporting a bill making ap appropriation for taking tho eighth census. Mr. Whiteley, of Del., offered a substitute to confine the census simply to an enumeration of the people. The latter was rejected by 51 against 140. Mr. Hughes’ resolution was then adopted. The House went into committee of the whole on the state of the Union, and resumed the con sideration of tho bill granting pensions to soldiers of the war of 1812. Mr. Smith, of Illinois, wanted to include the soldiers of the Black Hawk War. He scouted the plea, that because the treasury was not full, jus tice should not be done those patriots. Jones, of Tennessee, while maintaining the duty of the government to provide pensions for those disabled by wounds or diseases contrac ted in the public service; held that it was not right or proper to inaugurate a general service system of pensions. A debate followed, for and against the bill, but without coming to a conclusion thereon, the com mittee rose. Mr. Phillips, of Pa., gave notice of his inten tion to introduce a bill regulating and fixing the duty on imports, and for other purposes. On motion of Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, a resolu tion was adopted requesting the Secretary of the Treasury to furnish a statement of the value of the imports from Great Britain and France into the United States, and the exports from tho last named to* those countries for the years 1853, 1854, 1855, 1856 and 1557, the information to be obtain ed from the returns of their custom houses. The House, by 130 against 66, suspended the rules in order to consider the Senate resolution proposing a temporary adjournment from the 23d of December to the 4th of January, and the reso lution was passed by 38 against 94.—Adjourned. The Coolie Slaves of Cuba. The workings of English philanthropy as man ifested in that power fostering and abetting the Coolie trade are illustrated by the condition of such of these unfortunate creatures as survive a transportation with which the “horrors of the middle passage” may not be compared. They havenothing like the capacity of the negro for la bor and endurance, and yet the same tasks are imposed upon them. A Virginia gentleman who recently visited the island, says that suicide is common among them, sometimes ten or a dozen hanging themselves at a time to escape the insup portable burden of their misery. No provision is made for their return to their native land from which they have been beguiled, aud their mas ters having no interest in them, except to get the greatest amount of work possible out of them du ring their period of apprenticeship, heap upon them labors which soon break them down, and often hurry them to the grave. “How terrible is the picture,” says a sensible New York paper, “and how truthful and suggestive the one single sentence —“Their masters having no interest in them!” And yet this trade is encouraged by the English as one dictated by humanity and tending to abate the horrors of the African slave trade.” [A r .

The Fashions —Part* December 2d. —The cold weather has produced a great display of cloaks, coats, burnous, Ac.; a variety of patterns in outer garments has been produced by Madame Petit , la Balaycuse, So. 4 Place Vendcme. The shawl-cloak, both of plain and spotted velvet, is a very large shawl, embroidered with guipure or jet, and fringed with chenille or small bells. There arc long burnous of black or brown cloth, with plaited sleeves and a round hood; very am ple cloaks of a description of white cloth spotted with black, without seams excepting on the shoul ders ; the velvet cloak decorated only with gimp trimming at the ends of the sleeves, and tassels on the shoulders; the long velvet jacket, either plain or with fancy trimmings up the front, be hind and on the sleeves ; lastly, we see splendid velvet shawls, descending almost as low as the dress, rounded at bottom, and having a hood of lace or gniLure. On velvet garments berthas of goiywa er late are fftai the oily dtoorstfti. Tire Atlantic Cable.—We understood that Mr. Cyrus W. Field received yesterday, from Newfoundland, a despatch of a nature calculated to revive the drooping hopes of the friends of tho Atlantic Cable. On Saturday last, the Superin tendent tells Mr. Field, some very good currents were received, and the word “Henley” was dis tinctly recognised, at about the hour when, ac cording to advioes received by the Arabia, Mr. Henley’f* large machine was to have been work ing- Thk Augusta Constitutionalist. —This pa per continues its warfare upon Gov.

The Democratic press of Georgia knows now its policy—plainly indica ted in its issue of the 19th inst., —and, in the main, if not as a unit; will join issue with the Edi tor of that paper. For ourselves, before the peo ple, and before a, or any, convention of the demo cratic party of Georgia, we are prepared for the issue which the Constitutionalist makes.

With our January number, we shall resume this subject.— Griffin Empire State. _ Prom the State Press, Dec. 16th. Naval Depot— A Word to the Georgia Delegation. We trust it will not be deemed obtrusive for us to urge upon the attention of our members in Con gress, a subject that deeply concerns our State — we allude to the projected Naval Depot near Brunswick, in which every Georgian and South ern man must and ought to feel interested. It will he recollected that more than two years ago, Mr. Dobbin, who was then Secretary of the Navy, ap pointed a Board of Examiners to report upon the best location for the establishment of such a Depot, between the ports of Norfolk and Pensacola ; and after thorough investigation, the Board reported Blythe Island, in the vicinity of Brunswick, as being in all respects the most suitabls and desir able point. Consequently at the session of Con gress 0f1856-'57 (thanks to the zealous and inde fatigable exertions of Hon. James L. Seward, the Representative from our first Congressional Dis trict) an appropriation of $200,000 was made for that purpose. Of this sum a portion has been used in purchasing Lao site ; but since then the Navy Department appears to have forgetten it—- our Congressmen have neglected it—a general lethargy seems t j have overspread it, and unless an effort is mad<- to break this Itip Van Winkle slumber, we apprehend the whole affair will be suffered to remain in statu quo until the “crack of doom.” Therefore, as a Georgian, and the con ductor of a Georgia journal, having her welfare at heart, we feel it our duty, and wc are sure the citizens of the State will sustain us, in making this appeal to our Representatives to act in this matter promptly , earnestly and faithfully. Their con stituents expect it of them, and it is incumbent upon them to do it. The Government has already invested too much money in the proposed Depot to suffer it to remain idle. The question is asked, why is not the Act of Congress carried out ? Econ - omy if no other consideration, should cause addi tional appropriations to be made at once to carry out the work already begun. Had this been a Northern appropriation, the project would long ago have been perfected; but our Representatives content themselves with emitting gas about South ern rights, Southern in teres Island Southern equali ty ; and then sleep upon their posts, suffering millions to go to tho North without stretching forth their hands to secure a beggarly pittance of a few hundred thousand dollars for the South.— The Northern people suck the marrow, and we grumble over the bones—they drink the pap and we lick the spoon—the dollars and dimes are thrown into their side of the scale, and our end kicks the beam. These things ought not to be. We might say more, but it is needless. Our Rep resentatives are not ignorant of the importance of this Depot not only to our own State, but to the South, and, indeed, to the whole country. With out, therefore, entering into an extended and un necessary argument, we conclude with the earnest hope, which will doubtless meet with a response throughout thej3tate, that immediate and effici ent action be taken in the premises. We deem it necessary merely to direct the attention of our Congressmen to this matter in order to secure the desired result. P. S.—Since the above was w ritten, we have found the following resolution, passed by the Leg islature on Saturday, the day of adjournment: “The rules were suspended and Mr. Stiles mov ed to take up and agree to a House Resolution re questing our Senators and Representatives in Con gress to urge the early construction of a Navy Yard on Blythe Island. Adopted. Chattanooga, To which State docs it belong—Georgia or Tcnn. The remarks in our paper of last week, in which attention was asked to the mooted point as the true boundary between this State and Georgia has aroused the proud spirit of some Tennessean, who boasting of a, residence amongst ‘hog drivers and mule raisers,’ indites his protestation against being Georgianized, in the Gazette of the 18th over the signature “Chattanooga.” His abuse of Georgia, her laws, her kid gloved aristocracy Ac., will furnish good laughing matter on both sides of the line. It is not our purpose to defend the great State of Georgia, against the strictures of “Chattanooga, ” nor to present her code, in con trast with that of the State with whose welfare we have become identified, ft has been remarked by men of comprehensive views, and safe judg ment, that Chattanooga is geographically and commercially allied to Georgia: and if, within her jurisdiction would receive that degree of attention and patronage from the management of the Wes tern & Atlantic R. R., calculated greatly to en hance her interests. Her frontier location, and her feeble competi tion with her now favored and prosperous sister cities of Tennessee, has subjected, and will proba ; bly continue for years tc subject her to an exis tence of neglected orphanage. The ca. sa. law of Georgia, alluded to in terms of detestation,and other flings at Georgia character, tending to ex cite the jealousy and prejudices of the feeble-min ded, and uninformed, may be characterized as inapposite, if not unbecoming to a high-toned and decorous consideration of the subject. One would suppose that the Gazette's contributor had expe rienced some loss of liberty from the immuring operationsof the ca. sa. law, and has removed his domicil beyond its clutches. Honest men in Georgia are never terrified by the law. Seriously, in order that we be not misunderstood we will say, that for many years distinguished Georgia Statesmen have questioned the correct ness of the South Eastern boundary between the two States, and being corroborated by many citi zens of this ity in the opinion that if a Hue cor rectly run would place this section within Geor gia limits, it would inure to the benefit of our city and adjoining country, wc ventured to suggestthe views published last week. We are governed by no antipathy to Tennessee or Tennesseans, but are moved solely by a desire to promote the pub lic good. — Chattanooga Representative. Correspondence of the N. O. Picayune. Paris, Nov. 25, 1858. This city wasueverso full as it is now. It is hopeless getting a decent room in a good quarter of the city. It is idle to think of procuring a seat in any theatre ten minutes after the curtain is up. It is hard to secure a cabinet in any of the fashionable restaurants, and impossible to get one at the Maison D’Or near midnight.

Many to see the world—an advantage they did not possess during the former Czars: For instance, there is an iron master in Paris now, named J&kobleff, who could not procure from Czar Nicholas leave to quit the country; for his income is set down at two millions of dollars annually, and the Czar was afraid that if he once left Russia with ayear’s income in his pocket he would never return, although his Russian estates are worth $40,000,000.
