lowa, 1,657 in Kentucky. 245 in Michi
gan, 222 in Kansas, and 72 in Alabama.
Education in Spain. —The low state
iuto which the Spanish monarchy has
lapsed, is seen in the literary character
of many of the officials. Out of a total
of 72,157 municipal councilors, no less
than 12,479 are unable to read or write.
Among the number are included 422
Mayors and 938 Deputy Mayors.
Expensive Glory. —Napoleon, since

total debt of the United States. Napo.
Jeon's wars have cost him about $500,-
000,000, and since 1851, the annual

are pleased to learn that they will be
continued.

The British Periodicals.—We in
vite attention to the advertisement of
the Leonard Scott Publishing Company,
in our columns this morning. It con
tains the list of publications of this
Company, and particularly the British
Reviews all of which are of the high
est literary character, and represent the
several political and religious parties in
the British realm. This renders them
particularly interesting, and ought to
secure for them au extensive circulation.
Aißictir Colonisation. —The an
nual report of the American Coloalta
tioa Society show* that during the past
yoar 1,165 colored person* enrolled
themselves to embark for Liberia ; 600

FnKEDWOMAN BURNED TO DEATH.—A
colored woman who had been residing
on the premises at the corner of Greene
and Wilde streets, was so badly burned
on Friday night last, that she died from
the effects of it on the following morn
ing. She was sitting by a stove and fell
asleep, when her clothes took fire, and
before she could receive any assistance
was so badly burned as to cause her
death as already stated.
Accidents of this character ought to
be sufficient warning to cause people to
be more careful of themselves, especially
women, when near a fire.
The Horse Auction To-Morrow at
the Palace Stables.— We would call

horses and mules, the particulars of
which may be found in another column

utmost candor and fairness. Among
the many fine horses offered there will
be a span of the most beautiful and in
all respects the most graceful and stylish
to be found anywhere, including a fine
cabriola and harness complete. Besides
a large variety of others suited to almost
any purpose (or which this noble animal

Young Men's Lirrary Association.
—At the annual meeting of the Young
Men’s Library Association of Augusta,
held on the 21st iost., the following offi
cers and managers were elected for the
present year:
GEO. T. BARNES, President.
R. B. BULLOCK, Wc« President.
J. W. WALLACE, Secretary and Treas
urer.
MANAGERS.
Geo. M. Thew, D. B. Plumb,
John Bones, A. C. Ives,
Joseph Milligan, C. M. PECK.
CHARLES T. SMITH, Librarian.
The Association is fortunate in having
such officers. They are gentlemen who
will take no little interest in its welfare,
and will do all in their power to pro
mote its growth and prosperity. The
Library and Reading Rooms are insti
tutions which ought to be encouraged
and sustained by our citizens, and, un
der the energetic management of the
present officers, we are sure that they
will be
Personal—The Hamlin Brothers.
—Mr. A mony Bruce, ye walking Agent
of the Hamlin Brothers is in our City.
Mr. Bruce is also a correspondent of the
New York Sunday Mercury, over tho
signatnre of “Here and There.” He
visits our City to make arrangements for
t'te early appearance here of the Ham
lin Brothers, whose wonderful perform
ances are the theme of admiration and
praise wherever they have been. As
well as their own performances, they
have several additions, all of which con
stitute a very attractive entertainment.
The Savannah Republican of Friday
last, says : The benefit of the Hanlon
Brothers to-night will undoubtedly be
the event of the theatrical season, and
nothing we might say could in any way
increase the intense desire of the .Sa
vannah public to witness their grand
and truly thrilling act of Zampiirerosta
tion. The Hanlon Brothers were the
originators of this bold and daring feat,
the dinger of which must be seen to be
properly appreciated. The athletic
(irace and apparent ease with which
these tearless and peerless Brothers per
form inis seeming impossibility, chal
leugcl the admiration of the astonished
and awe-stricken audience. 'there is
an original style of modest abandon
about these gentlemanly gymnasts in
everything that they perform, which is
pleasing, and in the ‘‘Three Flying
Men” they exhibit an intrepidity and
contempt of danger which sets teur at
dcficnce. Many timid people are apt to
turn their heads away from such a
daring spectacle, but we can assure
them that the cool audacity displayed
by the Hanlons robs the exciting scene
of all terror, and inspires the spectators
with a feeling of confidence in their
ability to perform everything they at
tempt, successfully.
The entire company will be taxed to
their utmost to-night, ns the programme
comprises some of the most difficult
feats ever attempted on any stage by
this talented troupe, while the selections
are such as will richly reward those who
are fortunate enough to obtain a glimpse
of the stage—we speak not now of
seats, for if the rush lor reserved tickets
continues to-day as it began yesterday,
he will indeed be lucky who can find
even standing room.
Outside of the great bill of attractions
presented this evening, tiicre are stronger
reasons for the bestowal of a perfect
ovation to the beneficiaries. It may not
be generally known here that the Han
lon Brothers enjoy throughout the coun
try not only the confidence and esteem
of all with whom their business relations
bring them in contact, hut they are re
spected and honored in the social walks
of life for their unsullied character, and
for the possession of those traits of re
finement and dignity which distinguish
the gentleman from the self-conceited
and vulgar clown of public life. Added
to this claim is the chaste and superior
order of entertainments which the
troupe have furnished our citizens, not
a vulgar act or word being permitted to
defile their fair reputation as honorable
men and star members of the profession
of which they are shining ornaments.
Give them a bumper to-night, and thus
tangibly attest our appreciation of tal
ent and refinement.

SENATE.
Among a number of petitions was
one for a national Bureau of Education*
The Military Committee reported a
bill forever prohibiting peonage.
The Library Committee reported a
bill amending acts regarding copyrights.
Passed.
The President was directed to inform
the Senate why the Govei nor of Colo
rado is absent from his post; why here?
Who paid his expenses ? When and
how often absent from his post? The
same inquiries were ordered regardiog
other Territorial Governors and Indian
Agents.
The Judicial bill goes back to the
House with amendments. It proscribes
the machinery of the habeas corpus, but
excepts from its operations military
offenders, or those tainted with rebellion
prior to the date of the act.
The Tariff bill was taken up.
Adjourned.
HOUSE.
Mr. Trimble, pf Kentucky, introduced
a bill repealing the cotton and sugar
tax. Referred to the Committee on
Ways and Means.
The bill to amend the District fran
chise, extending it regardless of sex,
was introduced. A motion to refer it to
a special committee of five was lost—
yeas 49, nays 73. It was referred to the
District Committee.
An unsuccessful effort was made to
refer impeachment to a committee of
seven, on the ground that the Judiciary
Committee lacked time. The Chairman
said the committee had time ; and in
answer to what the committee was doing,
said that would be known at the proper
time. No one outside of the committee
knew, he said, and branded all reports
sent North as false.
A bill passed creating a commission
to examine into the Treasury Depart
ment.
Mr. Stevens’ bill was taken up. Mr.
Julian opposed the bill, as he favored
keeping the Southern States from repre
sentation indefinitely.
Mr. Stevens modified his bill mate
rially, and appealed to Mr. Binghatn to
withdraw his motion to refer, so the bill
might be completed.
Mr. Bingham declined, wishing the
House to decide.
Mr. Stevens said .the reference of the
bill would be its death."
A bitter colloquy ensued between
Messrs. Bingham and Stevens. The
Speaker called Stevens to order for say
ing he did not believe a word Bingham
said.
The bill was referred to the Recon
struction Committee by a vote of 88 to
65. Adjourned
Veto of (lie Colorado Bill.
Washington, Jan. 28—P. M.
The message returning the act admit,
ting Colorado was read to-day. A sense
of duty prevents its approval. With the
exception of an additional clause, it is
the same vetoed in May last, which still
awaits the Senate’s reconsideration. He
is anable to perceive any reason for
changing his opinion, but sees additional
reasons confirming the wisdom of his
former veto. The additional section
makes the bill more objectionable.
The Constitution of Colorado provides
that the laws existing shall continue.—
Among these is one absolutely prohibit
ing negro suffrage.
The recent territorial legislature
almost unanimously refused its repeal,
and pending the passage of the act by
Congress the territorial legislature
passed an act denying jury rights to
uegroes.
The bill before me, says the President,
grants rights denied by the Legislature,
and by the Constitution of Colorado.
This incongruily and protest-on the part
of the people against a State govern
ment clearly indicate the impolicy and
injustice of the proposed enactment. It
is a subject of serious inquiry whether
the enactment is not au attempt to exer'
cise powers not conferred by the Consti
tution.
The President submits evidence of the
repugnance of the people of Colorado
to a State government.
The total population of Colorado is
27,909. Fifty thousand is required for
Congressional representation. He ar
gues the injustice of allowing this small
community one Representative and two
Senators.
Such admissions of States were not
practiced in early days. Florida’s ad
mission in 1845 resulted from sectional
strife, which we would do well to regard
as a warning of evil, rather than an
example for imitation.
He shows by statistics that other
States, when admitted, had a population
entitling them to one, nearly to two
representatives. Every organzed Terri,
tory, equally with Colorado, is entitled
to admission. Logical precedent admits
Dacotah, Montana, Idaho when they
present themselves, giving us ten new
Senators and five Representatives,
furnished by a population scarcely enti
tled to one Representative in existing
States, while the average population for
two Senators is now nearly a million.
He argues that the Enabling Act for
Colorado was passed under false statis
tics, and the deliberate decision of the
people against forming an Enabling
Act, besides the bill is so framed as to
render its execution impossible. He
questions whether it is not in itself a
nullity, and argues at some length the
incongruities of the bill. In conclusion
he says, the admission of the State is
regarded an epoch in our history, mark
ing the progress pf the nation, but he
cannot see that the proceeding accords
with the uniform policy of the Govern
meut in the admission ot new States.

Washington. Jan. 28— P. M.
The Supreme Court in several lottery
and liquor cases, decides that the pay
ment of Federal tax does not authorize
business prohibited by State laws.
J. Q. Charles, member of the Colo
rado Territorial Council, denies, by tele
graph, the passage, over Governor Cum
ming's veto, the bill excluding uegroes
from juries. The bill passed, though
consolidated, did not change the law.
The movement throughout, he says,
is intended to affect
Colorado’s admission.
A circular from the Mexican Legation
aaysL. Spurious Mexican bonds have
been issued under the auspices of a
pretended land and mining contract, and
were offered at low rates. Hard words
arc used towards Daniel Woodhouse.
The circular adds that the only valid
bonds on the market are signed by
Fuetites and Iguac-io Mariscal.
The 'limes' special says the extremists
have piled up the rates in the tariff bill
so high that there is. a possibility the
bill will fuil altogether.
There is a small prospect of the
House Gold bill, now in the Senate
Committee, being reported soon.
It appears if the Government is

The Tribune's special says Allison’s
proposition to issue fifty millions of three
per cent, notes, to take the place of
compound interest notes, which are re

considerable opposition in the Ways

measure desire to get it out of the
hands of the Committee. It is believed
it will pass the House.

Saturday, hold their offices until the 4th

nominates and the Senate confirms other
nominations.
