f^r Professor Baknino has consented to de
liver one more lecture in our city, lo-nigbt, at
8 o'clock, in Lyceum Hall. Subject: "How to
prevent and. relieve the weakness and distor
tions of the spine, that are to common in a
Southern climate among cliiidivn and young
ladles.' 1 Young people and parents have an
interest in this lecture, which is delivered free
of charge.
Thr Central Rail-Road.—We congratulate
the Stockholders in the Central Rail-Road on
the first dividend that they have ever received
from their investment. They have waited long
enough fur some return, but now the balk in
which their hopes are centered is fairly afloat,
Id a trustworthy, seaworthy condition, and they
have a just claim to expect still better things
In the luture. The debt of the Company Is
now paid off, and there is no reasoo apparent
to us why regular annual dividends of six
or seven per cent may not be made hereafter,
an annual fund being reserved with which to
lay down, in due season, a new and heavy T
rail, equal to the demands of any businrss
which can be brought upon the road. To this
end, a rigid system of economy and account
bilily, united loan intelligent add energetic ad
ministration, such as preeminently characterise
the Northern Hoads is alone requisite.
Our fellow-citixens too, tax payers ol Savan
nah ought to be congratulated upon the auspici
ous event. This dividend placet 910,000 in the
City Treasury, and we have a just claim to ex
pect that henceforth the city will receive at
least 930,000 a year for her investment.

Now, we shall see what propositions Mr.
Tatar has taken out. If they are favourable,
peace way be expected. If not, not. The Mex
icans will not probably consent to yield by trea
ty any territory on the other aide of the Rio
Grande. 'There is at Washington much talk
about peace. This would seem to indicate that
Mr. Tribt is charged with acceptable proposals.
Blood Monby.—A letter from Mexico, in
the Journal of Consource, says that General
Scott baa taken (he guerilla business in band,
"and by bis order, every murder that the Mexi
cans may commit takes $300 out of the nearest
alcalde's pocket. Although this may be rather
bard un the alcalde*, It will induce them to ex*
ert their influence, o( which they possess 'some,'
as a preventive of the evil,"
fjr The New-Orleans Bulletin says that the
whole number of deserters from Gen. Taylfr*s
army, lias been about seventy, nearly all for
eigners. They were in the battle of Buena
Vista, where thirty of them were killed.

Honorable Court of Common Pleas and Oyer sod
Domestics roa Oomr Consumption.—One
of our merchants advertises in our paper that
lie ha* just received a large consignment of
Boston laths, and it strikes a*, and most strike
other?, as not a little remarkable, that a popula
tion living in the vety heart of one of the best
lumber regions in the United Slates, with thou
sands of fallen pine trees covering the forests
in their immediate neighborhood, should be in
debted lo Northern enterprise for the very laths
uiih which their houses are constructed.
Another Instance arrested oar attention a
short time ago. In visiting the rice plantation
of a friend on the 8avannah river, we observed,
stamped on the side of the row-boat which car
ried us, the name of the maker in Ntto?York;
while one of our Carolina friends, a great lec
turer on agriculture and President of agricul
tural societies, gets even his "pig-yokes" from
the North, Instead of making them on his own
plantation.
While such supine indolence and such
short-sighted policy prevail among us, the South
most and will remain tributary to the superior
indostry aod energy of the North, which profits
by her neglect of her own true interests.
The resources ol the South need only be de
veloped to give to her children wealth and com
forts. Nature has done far more Tor us thao for
onr Northern brethren, hut they have husband
ed their resources, while we have squandered
and neglected ours.
Take for example the Slate of Georgia.
Vast quantities of her limber is now rotting in
in her forests, while Northern lumber comes
into our port. The finest water power in the
world which might be converted to a thousand
useful purposes, is allowed to waste itself over
rocks in its channel. The shad fishery on (he
Savannah river is yearly made a source of
large profit to a company from Maine. Our
canal furnishes our city only with eels and »eater
lilies l instead of being completed to bring os
down the lumber and the products of the Oge-
cbee I and in one word, we continue poor be
cause we will not make the effort to become
rich by developing the adtual resources In dur
power.
~ Agriculture and commerce absorb most of
the energies of the portion of our people .who
will work, while the class of "unproductive con
sumers" at the Sooth is fearfully large. The
professions have much to answer for In this
respect. Many sturdy young fellows who
would enjoy both health and competence if fol
lowing the plough, are wasting their energies
and their lives io a fruitless chase after "cases"
either legal, medjeal, or clerical, to the great
lots of the community and their own.
Georgia, we are happy to eee, Is waking op:
the former stupid idea that a gentleman was
one who wore white kids, and never worked, is
fast giving place to the sounder doctrine, that
the working-men, (either with hand or brain,)
are the true nobility of a country,- and stamp its
character at home and abroad. Upon the pres
ent generation reals the duly of developing the
intetnal resources of the Stale—of employing
her water power in turning the busy wheels of
factories! in exploring her mineral treasures—
In increasing her exports of lumber—and de
veloping all her countless resources. We call
ed attention the other day to Mr. Artopr's en
terprise, near Macon, for preparing Georgia
Marble, and the Brass Founderlfs in Augusta;
in our own city Mr. Webb's 8aw-Milla are en
gaged io sawing out laths; all of which are, we
irpsi, but the first steps towards greater im
provements in our home products, for domestic
consumption.

By the arrival at New-prleans of the steamer
Palmetto, the Edilots of the Picayune have
received advices from Vera Cruz as late as the
33d of the month just past.
Gen. Worth entered Puebla on the afternoon
or the I5th, after a sharp skirmish with a party
or lancers sent out to delay his advance.
Santa Anna was In the ciiy ‘at the moment,
but at once left, and pushed on towards the
capital.
It was reported that Gen. Valencia was be
tween Puebla and the capitol at the head of
fonrteen thousand men to resist our further ad
vance, bnt this is doubtful.
The result of the presidential election was
not known. 8anla Anna, Eiioriagn, and Her-
rea were candidates among others.
Santa Anna is said to have had a considera
ble force with him when he passed through
Puebla—variously estimated at from 1,500 to
10,000. It is shrewdly suspected that he in
tends to use this force to maintain his personal
position and secure the presidency.
Capt. Mayo, of the Navy, Governor of Alva
rado, started on the 13th Inst, for Talascoya.
The town surrendered to him without resistance.
On his return he was fired upon and Passed
Midshipman Pringle and five seamen were
badly wounded.
Gen. Shields con tidies to improve slowly.
Capt. Mason, of the Rifles, we are pained to
learn, died on the 15lh.
A party of guerillas have been surprised and
captured near Vera Cruz. The following is
the account of it in the language of a corres
pondent of the Picayune, dated May Qtst:
"Col. Tom. Banks, whu was the leader qf the
party, learned from a good source that such a
party had visited the suburbs of the city for sev
eral nights in succession, and had succeeded in
stealing several horses from the wagon yard.
By the consent of the Governor, he raised a
volunteer company of seven men, and on Wed
nesday night sallied forth to catch the vagrants,
but without making any discoveries. Last
night they thought to try their band again, and
accordingly about 10 o'clock they arrived in
the neighborhood of the yard. Four men were
placed where they could see and not be seen!
and the other three advanced in different direc
tion*, about one hundred and fiftyjrards from
the main body. They were not long in this
position before one of them discovered one or
two men advancing. He hailed bat they ad
vanced upon him. The Mexican in advance,
after getting his ribs scraped with a musket
ball, took to hla heels, whilst the other advanced
with a saber drawn for a regular set-to, but a
pistol ball settled him. Unfortunately for the
first one he ran close to another of our par
ty who brought him down with a rifle. It
was about this time that several others of
the guerrilla party made their appearance
for the fray, but they were soon madw to
retreat to a house near by. They had suc
ceeded in barrackading all thedoois but one
and biding their arms like cowards, when the
Immortal seven came up and burst upon the
door, taking them all prisoners without oppo
sition. On searching the house they found their
arms, and their horses and equipments were
found In the yard, which was enclosed by a very
high stone wall, and as our guard had never
been extended that far they no doubt thought
themselves perfectly secore. A more precious
looking set of scamps than these prisoners I
never laid eyes on. A portion of Col. B.'s par
ty stayed to guard the house and property, and
snereeded in arresting three men this morning,
all well armed and well mutinied.
Brevet Major Dimmock arrived at VeraCruz
on the 18th nit. from New-York, on the barque
Edwina, with portions of the 5th and 7th In
fantry and one company of artillery. He is or
dered to rendezvous at the Puente Nacional
(National Bridge) on the Jaiapa road until
further orders. «
The Eagle says that Col. Sowers was in
Vera Cruz on the 33d, with despatches for Gen.
Scott. The nature of them bad not transpired.
Mr. Kendall, writing from Xatapa under date
of the 18tb all.,'says: "Had Gen. Scott been in
possession of the proper means on the eve of
the battle of Cerro Gordo, the city of Mexico
would at this lime have been under the Amer
ican flag, and very likely without the loss of a
man—be had not the proper means, and the road
may not now be found an open way."
A garrison will remain here under Col.
Childs, composed of both regulars and volun
teers, every way able to hold the position against
any odds the enemy may bring.
There is no mistake that Geo. 8cott's pro
clamation, which went directly home to every
reflecting Mexican, is doing a great deal ofgood.
Santa Anna’s ascendancy over Mexican af
fairs has certainly not been overrated. Defeat
ed at Buena Vista, be rallied again for the bat
tle of Cerro Cordo, and now is attracting, ac
cording to the most reliable information, a new
army to bis standard. Mr. Kendall thinks
there are certain indications of another struggle
before reaching Mexico.,
Writing on the 19th uU., Mr. Keodall says
"Four men belonging to the army are to under
go most severe punishment this afternoon: they
are to receive thirty nlno lashes each, in the
Plaza^are to have their heads shaved, and after
the word "ruMer” is pasted on each of their
backs, arc lode drummed out of camp. This
thing of publicly whipping a man is most de
grading; but their crime was the premeditated
robbery of the house of a Mexican, and under
circumstances deserving of the most severe
punishment. Three of them belonged to (he
4tb Artillery, and one to the 3d Pennsylvania
regiment."
The punishment of these men, Mr. K. adds,
has gltfcn great satisfaction to the army. *

correspondent of the Delta, dated at Jaiapa; May
31st, completes our intelligence:

Caught a Tartar.—Between Camargo and
Mler, a short time ago, three Mexicans were
way-laying the read to rob a Mexican merch
ant of Maiamoroi, who they knew was coming
down frdto Mler with a large amount of money
in his possession. The merchant had three
men with him, aid It chanced before he reach
ed the spot where the robbers hod posted them
selves, that three Texan Rangers, who had
been ont on a scent, struck into the road a short
distance ahead othim, pursuing their way down
lo Camargo. It was after dark, and the robbers
mistook the Rape*'* for the merchant’s party.
They ordered them to hall and deliver, and the
Rangers did halt and deliver, but they delivered
bullets instead of money, and left not a robber
able to carry off his load—nil were killed, and
the merchant passed down in safely.
The mule train which left Matamoros about
the 13tb inst. for Camargo, under an escort of
Massachusetts volunteers, commanded by Capt.
Walsh, reached there in safety. The report
about tbelr being attacked, and the mules
stampeding, turned out to be Iscorrcct.
TheOth, 11th, 12th, I4lh and 15th Regiments
or Infantry, and the Regiment of Voliigeurs, had
been ordered to Gen.Scott. The 10th, 13th and
16th Regiments of Infantry and the 3d Dragoons
had been ordered to join Gen. Ta> lor.
It was reported in Matamoroa that |deui.
Col. Randolph, of the Virginia Regiment,
had, with a portion of bis command, captured,
on the 5th lost., 40 of Canales' men, at China.
The 1st Mississippi Regiment under Col. Da
vis, was to have left Cerralvo on the 20th inst.,
for the mouth of the Rio Grande. Col. Davis
was fast recovering from his wounds.
The health of Gen. Taylor's army was gen
erally good. The srnatl-pox, which alone lime
created considerable alarm among the troops
and the Mexican inhabitants in Saltillo, had
nearly disappeared.
From California*
The recent accounts from California indicate
that the Californians are so content with the
American administration, that they will never
again come under the Mexican sway.
The Californian of the Cth of February no
tices' the arrival of the Lexington. Capt.
Tompkins, who arrived in her, with bis com
pany and field artillery, was stationed at Fort
Mervine. Lieut. Halleck, or U. S. Engineers,
was to make permanent fortifications at the
most important points along the coast. He
was well provided with all necessary Imple
ments for the purpose, and had besides a saw
and grist mill. The Uxinglon was loaded with
batteries, 34-poundcra, mortars, Ac., Ac., ttir
military purposes. Col. 8tevenson's regiment
had not arrived, but was expected daily,
fortification will be erected at San Francisco,
There is abundance of timber, and water-power
almost inexhaustible, up the Sacramento river.
In consequence of the scarcity, of provisions,
Com. Shubrick, immediately after his arrival,
Issued a general order declaring that beef, pork,
bread, flour, butter, cheese, sogar and rice
should, for six months after the first of March,
be admitted Into the ports of California duly
free.
From the style in which the order is written,
the inference is that Com. Shubrick, and not
Gen. Kearney, has been constituted Governor of
the territory. It reads thus: "The undersign
ed, commander-in-cblef of the naval forces of
the United 8tates in the Pacific ocean, in virtue
of the authority vested in him by the President
of the United States," Ac.
The Californian of February 13lb, says ft
learns, by an arrival from Yerba Buena, that a
party of emigrants, sixty In number, left on the
other side of California mountain, bad suffered
severely. Nineteen started for the valley, but
only seven arrived, having been compelled to
eat the dead bodies of tbelr companions to save
themselves from starvatiop. Among the snr-

Napolzon and 8anta Anna.—We are not a-
bout to run a parallel between these distinguish
ed captains. But as it must have struck every
one that Santa Anna is a great Imitator of his
Imperial model, so it Is natural to look for some
points of resemblance between them. The re
sult of the comparison la, that the Mexican is
the greatest living parody or his illustrious pat
tern that a burlesque imitation can, in this way,
supply. Yet liters are some irpidents in tbelr
tolitical live*, if not tniliitary career, which
iirnish a parallel. Bonaparte controlled a re
volution lo his own ambitious purposes.—
So did Santa Auna. Bonaparte was banished.
So was his imitator. Bonaparte returned to
lower and dominion. So did Santa Anna.
4ere the parallel unlotiunately fails. Bona
parte promised victories to his legions, and
achieved more than he promised. Santa Anna
riedged himself to drive the enemy from the
mrders of Mexico, at the cost of self-martyr
dom, and redeemed his pledge by the loss of
every battle; and finally, by the desertion of hi*
charge. Bonaparte and Santa Anna both wrote
proclamations. Those issned by the first were
noble models of their kind. Those of the latter
were travesties of the heroic. We shall soon
know whUher the one, like the other, will wind
up bis career by a second exile: or terminate,
as he commenced, in burlesqne Imitation.
