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 his accession to the French throne, has added $1,350,000,000 to the debt of France, which now amounts to $2,415,- 000,000, a sum almost as great as the total debt of the United States. Napo. Jeon's wars have cost him about $500,- 000,000, and since 1851, the annual deficit of the French revenues has aver Bged $50,000,000. Magistrate's Election. — At the election for Magistrate in the 600th dis trict, on Saturday, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Matt. Sheron, Esq., Captain John Reynolds was elected without opposition. The unexpired term includes the present year. Mr. Roland Whitaker was elected Constable at the same time. Lecture. —Rev. J. S. Lamar delivered his third lecture on the acts of the Apos tles, at the Christian Chapel on Sunday night. His remarks were based on the second chapter of Acts, and embraced a learned review of the interesting inci dents treated of in that chapter. These lectures are deeply interesting, and we are pleased to learn that they will be continued. Our Colored Population. —lt is estimated that there are 14,600,000 persons ot African descent on this con tinent and the islands adjacent thereto. In the United States, they number 4,500,000 ; Brazil, 4,150,000 ; Cuba, 1,500,000 ; South and Central Ameri can Republics, 1,200,000 ; Hayti, 2,000,000 ; British Possessions, 800,- 000 ; French, 250,000 ; Dutch, Danish, and Mexican, 200,000. 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 left Charleston in November; 642 are now ready 10 Tear*. The total receipts for the year were $58,153; disburse ments, $83,349. Budget or Books. —From our enter prising friend, Mr. Quinn, who keeps the Literary Emporium, on Broad street, nearly opposite the Daily Paras Office, we received the following : Frank Let- Mt Illudraled A netpaper. February 2di Tke Found Tablet Harper's Monthly; The Galaxy ; London Soci ety i Godey't Lady's Book .- all for Feb ruary; and a Book of Poems Laut Veneris, by Swinburne, to which we will refer at some future period. 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 the especial attention of planters and others interested, to the auction sale of horses and mules, the particulars of which may be found in another column We are assured and believe this sale will be conducted upon the most equita ble principles, and in a spirit of the 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 is used* Let everybody interested atteud. 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. Bn tEclegrapl). TO THE ASSOCIATED PREBB. PROM WASHINGTON. <o»(ri)»louB|. Washington, Jan. 28—P. M. 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. mitcellanrou*. 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 obliged to give notice of sales, it will be at the mercy of speculators. It also lboks as though the efforts to reduce the tax on whiskey will be ineffectual. Mr. McGinnis, whose nomination as Minister to Stockholm was rejected on Saturday, sailed a week ago, thinking his nomination was certain. 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 deemable the present year, meets with considerable opposition in the Ways and Means Committee. Friends of the measure desire to get it out of the hands of the Committee. It is believed it will pass the House. The Collectors and Assessors rejected Saturday, hold their offices until the 4th of Marbh next, unless the President nominates and the Senate confirms other nominations. Colonel Carrington stationed at Fort Reno, New Mexico, has been removed. The people there attribute his ineffi ciency to losses by Indian depredations. Baron Stoeckl is un his way troin Russia to resume Ministerial duties at Washington. Repnrt of Ibe New Orlennt Biot Committee. New York, Jan. 28—P. M. The He aids Washington soecial says the New Orleans Riot Commission will report this week. The report will not be very favorable to Louisiana.
