Mr. Moseley—Prom tho Committoo on the Penitentiary—To make it tho duty of tho Trea sury Committee to iuvostigato and report tho condition of tho Penitentiary during those years when there shall bo no sessiou of tho Legislature, and to require tho Governor to appoiut throe per son* to examine tho raw materials and tho assets* of the Book Kcupor, and report tho same to tho Governor. Mr. Jackson of Walton—To oxplniu “an art declaring mid making certain the law defining tho liability of endorsers and securities to promissory notes and other iiHtrumeiils, when tho holder thcrcofslmll fail to proceed to collect tho samu af ter notice;” passed Doc. 20,1841. Also—To explnin tho 5th see. ofnn act approv ed March 26th, 1767, for the limitation ofuctions, and for avoiding suits ntlnw. Mr. Till—To Bocnro tho poor School Fund of the Suite, and to make tho mconio uniform and permanent. A number of local bills woro also introduced by difiereut members. Tho House took up and passed tho bill ofSoti- ate, to provide for the establishment and locution of an Asylum for the Deaf, Dumb, and Blind, by a vote or 110 Yeas, to 9 Nays. Mr. Moseley from the Committee on tho Pen itentiary, presented a report on the affairs oftliat institution; 201) copies of which were ordered to bo printed. The House took up tho spccinl order of the day, being the Bill to provide for tho removal of the sont ofgovernnient of this Stato, to the Town of Atlanta, in DcKalb County. Air. Gaulden proposed uu aineiidmentto tho iirst section,which provided that the government shall he removed iVoin Millcdgeville whou satisfactory assurances shall ho rendered that it shall bo accomplished withoiitexnensetotlie State. Mr. Nciuit proposed as a substitute, to remove the sent of government to the City of Macou. A hurricuno followed. Messrs. Bartow, Harris of Baldwin, and Gartrell, opposed the removal.— Messrs. Nisbot, and Jackson of Walton, in favor, Mr. Bartow's effort wus admirable, mid elicited tho plaudits of u large and interested audience.— Air. Harris also is highly commended, as was Mr. Gartrell. Messrs Nisbet and Jackson spoko with ability. The former geutleman touched utopic, that, as I thought, was rather unfortunate for the cause lie espoused. He romurked that tho pub lic buildings in Millodgevile had been erected at a 'great cost, and evoit now appropriations were called for occasionally, for repairs, &c. Tho drift of his argument seemed to bo to provo that the work was badly dono, and that it would bo boat to abandon thorn for better, which would not need repeated appropriations for ropairs, &c. Ou hearing which, I was reminded of Esop's fable of the Fox, Swallow and Flies. A Fox, as Esop tells the story, swimming acrosss a river, became entangled in some vines near the bank, whore he wa {exposed to the uttneksofswurms of fliospvluch being observed by a Swallow, he kindly offered to drive them away: “by no means, says the Fox, f or if these who ure sufficiently gorged should bo driven off, another more hungry swarm would succeed, and I should bo robbed of every remaining drop of bland.” If the Stato lius been sucked pretty deeply by tlio money expen ded on tho buildings, I seo no reason why there fore site should be subjected to tho sutne treat ment from another hungry set elsewhere. Tito buildings necessary for the government and its offices, are completed and paid for—die expense is passed; and I cannot understand the economy of incurring it over again: for in truth I regard the promises to build ns similar in texture to some of those to pay which many of our people yet re- member to their cost. But to return to tho hill—-The vote was taken on receiving Mr.Gnttldcu’s amendment,whichwas agreed to. Yeas 60, Nays55. Tho House then adjourned until 9 o'clock to-morrow morning— when I suppose (ho Stato House, Executive mutt- sion, Arsenal and Alagaziue, with their appenda ges will bo transported to Macon, Atlanta, or some more favored spot, os if touched by thereat of the Lamp. In tho Senate, a motion ntudo by Air. Marks, to reconsider the hill rejected yestoruuy to estab lish a system of common Schools, wus lost. Mr. Simmons reported a bill to define tho lia bility of Hupreseulutives of duccused copnrtucrs in certain cases. Also, to explain and amend tho first section of an act assented to the 21st Dec. 1821, in rela tion to “estates tail." Several small bills wero al so reported. Air. Snider moved to amend the resolution of tho House relative to electing a Director Ibr tho State of tho Bank Stuto of Georgia, by insert ing the “15th iustuut” os the day, wmch was agreed to. The following bills were passed in the Senate: A bill to reorganise the Judicial District of this State, and to equalize tho lubors of tiio Judges of thn Superior Court, &c. To amend tho Charter of the Alemphis Branch Kail Road & Steam Boat Company. M’llO (till n I* tin. I fmi jn 4 .... AIAYOR’S OFFICE, Dec. 11,1847.

The annual Convention of tho S’oekholders of tho Central Rail Road & Banking Company of Georgia, was held yosterduy at the Exchange. Dr. Burroughs, Alnyor of the City, presided.— Robert H. Grilliu, F.sq., acted os Secretary. Tlio Reports of tho Prosidont and the Engi neer of the Company were submitted mid road. It was then decided by tho Convention to ad mit the holders of eight per cent stock to the priv iloge of voting, a lurge majority voting in favor of grouting them the privilege. It was subsequently resolved to authorize n conditional subscription of $250,000 to tho stock of tho Southwestern Rail Road Company in lieu of tho conditional subscription to the extonded road which has heretofore been contemplated. Another resolution wax passed authorizing an application to the Legislature so to amend tho charter us to ollow tho Alayor and Aldermen of Savannah to ho represented at t'.io BoaVd by a Director of their own selection. The proceedings shall appear in our next pa per. EtP’As our business engagements are such ns to require our sorviecs almost exclusively in our office, wo have beou unable to koop paeo with many changes that have recently taken place in the business houses oftlio city, and consequent ly have not taken us much notice of them as wo otherwise should havo done. We however ob served yesterday, that Air. George S. Nichols has taken tlio old stand until rocently occupied by Air. I. W. Morrell, mid is now opening n now and extensive assortment of Clothing, which cannot fail to please those who may examine it. Air. A. B. Gardner has commenced tho Glass, Crockery and House-furnishing business in tho store heretofore occupied by Alessrs. Weeds & .Morrell, No. 102 Bryan street; and Air. Phillip Kean has moved from Owens’ buildings to the store in which Alessrs. John Southwell & Co. carried on tho Clothing business. Tliero ore several others who wo would tako pleasure in noticing, but ns most of them continue to do business where they are already established, and tlio demand oil our columns is unusually ur gent at this season, we must content ourselves with referring to their respective advertisments to be found in our pnper. sSssssb ment, providing thaf'tho provisions of this section do not, nor shall they bo deemed to, apply .to that portion of the country west and south of the riser Nueces, excopt so fores to withdraw, and if need be, tt> rescue our army from the region Of the Rio Grande." This amendment wnsryectedby a vote of yeas 8 to nays 123. • Mr. Delano offered an addition to the oleventh section providing “that nothing herein contained shall be considered as approving the conduct of the President, in taking armed occupation of any territory lying botween tlio river Nueces and the Rio del Norto, and claimed hy Alcxico ns uever having constituted part of tho province of Tex as during the timo thot Texas constituted part of the Mexican Republic." This was iiejkctkd BY A VOTE OF 97 TO 27. ' Upon tho final question “shall this bill pass 7" tlio ayes woro 174, Uio uoes 14; in the Senate tho ayes were 40 and tho noes 2. This is the histo ry of tho proceedings of Congress which “stereo typed," according to Whig prints, a palpable false hood upon the records of tlio nntioiu In this act, according to thoir interpretation involving tho grossest moral turpitudo, and proclaiming a dis graceful “lie" to tho world, nearly tho whole of tho Whigs In Congress participated. After it had become a law, the President of tlio United States was bound, as tbo Executive magistrate of tho nation, to curry out its provisions, to regard and to respect its declarations. - IIo did so ; and be- catiso ho now assorts in his mossuge that “the ex istence of the war having tints been declarod by Cougross, it became my duty under tho constitu tion and tho laws, to conduct and prosecuto it," he is at once met with consuro and abuse, ns at tempting to screen himself undor a “stereotyped falsehood." If, then, it bo urged tliut the Whigs iii Congress voted for it—-tho only roply to bo made is, “ True—but they voted for a lie Voted fora lio 7 Is it necessary for the Whig party thus tocrimiuuto and to vilify itself in order to rcnch the President? Woro evor politicians placed in ho dosporato a position boforu? But tho organ iiiSuvanuah attempts to excuse this gross departure from truth and morality upon tho ground of coercion. “ The call (if the previous ques tion precluded all debate”—and thus “ tlio Whigs, many of whom protested against tho preamble, and all of whom wero known to be opposed to it, were driven cither to withhold aid from our army or vote for the bill with this preamble, and a stern souse of patriotism compelled them to choose tbo last alternative." Certainly a call oftlio previous question never worked such wonders hefaro. The Bill of tlio House, to niter and amend an act to incorporate the Snvuimuh Oseeliee and Altamaha Canal Company,passed 2Gtli Deo.1826, Several local bills wero passed. Among those lost, I noto the following : To authorize tho Central Rail Road & Bank ing Company and the Aliicon &. Western Rail Road Company to form a junction in or near the limits ol the City of Macon. To reduco the number of tho Justices of the Inferior Courts in this State. To authorize the Courts of Ordinary to grant lettors testauientuiy to persons not citizens of this Statu. To alter and amend the 7th section, 1st article of tlio Constitution of this State. oiways operates to precludo debate; when imme diate action is requisite upon nbill (as was tlio case under consideration) it is always made; but cer tainly there never wus a more ridiculous “non acquitur” than tho supposition that it placod the Whigs in this most trying dilemma. The sumo majority which sustained tlio cnll for tho provious question, would liuve sustained tho preamble to the bill, containing the declaration that iear exist ed by the act of Mexico. Soonor or later tlio ques tion would havo been raised, and tho dilemma made. And tho same majority that would huve passed the preamble after debato would have pas sed the bill, without tlio aid of theso patriotic Whigs, who voted fora "palpable falsehood,” or “a stereotyped falsehood,” or a “palpable lio,” os taste or humour may havesuggested tlio term rath er thun “withheld aid from our army." They could not hate withhold aid from our army! “Their stern senso of patriotism” could have hud no prac tical utility whatever. Our army would huvojicen aided without its exercise; and the only benefit ac cruing to the nation by their vote was in tho mural effect produced by tlio unanimity of Congress up on tliut subject. And now, when that unanimity is referred to, they tell us—“ It did not oxist—there was no such thing—wc voted for a lio! Our stern sense of patriotism compelled us To vote for “a palpable lie !” And Air. Polk must not use it as any tiling else!” Oh ! slmme where is thy blush! They voted for a “ lio,” knowing it to bo such. “ Many of them protested against the preamble, and all of them were known to be opposed to it." And tlio ex cuse set up for this conduct is that they wero forced to do so, or “ withhold supplies from our army,” which is assuredly the idlest of humbugs, since they did not have the power (supposing tho will) to withhold them. — noriind|)f tli'o condition of Uie publiqdebL ^ To to only singio elrbumstance, ho iufijned llj'b ’Representatives of the people, that thi i Wefe lit tho hinds ,ofr Reid, Irving* <& Co.,bo U exceeding the amount of the advances model them to thfe Btflto, Tind pledged.as seon- rityfoiuo paytrfbht'yfHh^a advohces,oqual to the vao of about £22^0P. ‘ In tills .■tato'ment ho hoi ;iade tin error of about £14,000, equal to about 170,000.

When Reid, Irving &Ca, disposed of £15,000 of theso bonds, there rcinaijud in their hands £3,000 boyond the amount nctitilly duo to them, which excess wus pledged as security for tho payment of said n- mount. As payments wore made from timo to timo on theonountdiio, tho State was clearly en titled to have a rateable proportion of the excess restored to t. There is evidence in the Execu tive dcpartiniut of un acknowledgment hy Reid, Irving & Co.oflhis right oil tlio part of thu State. Yet strange t» say, during four years, ill which interval $301591 have been paid upou this debt, as per message of his Excellency, he has failed to exercise this at/cnowledgcd right, and bus permit ted Reid.Irviig & Co.,to retain the whole excess of £8,000 iu tkeir hands, in addition to the £15,- 000, although there remuins duo but the latter sura ; and although two years ago §101,591 had been paid into thoir hands, ns per his Excellency’s message. In Tact, speaking in round numbers, there ought not to have been nn excess at this tithe of more than £1,500, unless his Excellency, iii (lice oftlio originul contract, hns hy some snb- ioquent arrangement with Reid, Irving & Co. vhich ho hns not made known to the good puo- jle of Georgiu, placed an additional number of houds iu Uieir hands. Wo nre now gravely told by his lute Excellen cy iu his recent inessnge that “it might bo regard ed ns an alarming incident, if tho bonds ‘ pledg ed to them, ns a security for their udrtuiccs to thu Stato, and exceeding tho amount of theso ad vances about £22,500, should bo put afloat on tke market,” nnd we are referred by his Excel lency “fora “guarantee” against such contingency to tlio “established integrity oftliat firm."

As we per ceive that the Whig presses, taking their cue from General Headquarters ut Lexington, ure dis posed to make this matter a topic of remurk, and in order to do so, are manfully struggling to excuse their party in Congress from rcprouch on the ground of supporting tlio bill containing this (to them) most hateful declaration, wo pro pose to give the subject u moment’s consideration. Wo shall show by the proceedings of Congress upon this bill, that while a very large majority of both Houses gave it their support upon its final passage , questions were raised during its discus sion in the House of Representatives, the deci sion of which approved aud justified the whole course of the President. The first section of the bill gnve to the President authority “to resist any attempt which may. bo made oil tho part of any foreign nation, to ex clusive jurisdiction over any port of the territory oftlio United States, or any territory in disputo between thfl United Slates uud any foreign gov Corrniponiteucoof tho SuvnumihGoorginn. MILLEDGEVILLE, Dee. 13,1817. Messrs. Editors :—-Queer things nro going on hero. ‘Tlio Stato is being zig-zagged in evory di rection by tho Legislature, in chartering Rail roads. Ill one house n road from Macon to Mad ison hns been incorporated, nnd in the other,one from Atlanta to West Point. Tho movemont in relation to the Wilkes Road has proved the sig nal for a general scramble. So much for Rail- Roads, which are destined, if all the charters nre carried out, to cross and jostle each other like “Busses" in Broadway. Tho “financial talents" of the late Governor are beginning to bo “appreciated." He came into offico at an auspicious moment. The general causes which had begun to operate, and had enabled other States to extriento them- solves from their embarrassments commenced to be felt in Georgia when lie succeeded to offico.— In addition to these, there were local and particu lar causes at work;—the Inking from tho counties tlio tuxes usually voted to thorn, and placing them in tho Treasury of tho State,—tho arrest of expen diture on tho State Rail Road;—tho saving of ex pense by die reduction, and by the biennial ses sions oftlio Legislature,—the increase of taxation, and other legislative measures,prior to Mr. Craw- fa rd’s election,which throw resources into the Trea sury,Imd the effectofappreciuting Slate bonds,and enabled him to make heavy payments on the public debt. People look to offubts and not to causes. Tho payments on tho debt took place aud tho bonds appreciated in value (\f\er ho cauio into ■office, and the idea was sedulously urged that what wus subsequent in time must have necessar ily been the effect of thu preceding event, nl- though tliero was in fact no connection between tho two. “Post hoc, ergo, propter hoc," was tlio argument of tbo friends of Mr. Crawford; and with those good people, who look not beyond the mirfaco of thiugs it proved conclusive. Tlio Whig Press kept before tlio people tho rise in the Stato Bonds nnd the diminution of tlio pub lic debt which succeeded tho election of Mr. C.; but kept carefully iu the back ground tlio logis- tive measure which prcccedcil that event, and which produced that appreciation, and effected Unit diminution. Hence tho popularity of the late Governor,certainly not pcrsonul, arose from tho iiiistukeu astimato formed of Jiis financial abilities. Some one has well observed that “the impartial future will soldoin fail to correct tho er rors of a mistaken present.” This process is going on in relation to his late Excellency—cir cumstances are developing the fact that he was notliing more nor less than the conduit or sewer through which the treasure raised by legislative enactments passed into the pocket of the public creditor. The intelligent not hljuded by party mists always know this, but a fuct of recent oc curence Htuggers the fiiith of those most credu lous of the “financial abilities of his late Excellen cy.” • In bis rCccnt message, he has betrayed bis ig. E2F Gen. Sbeilds passed through Atlanta on Moitduy evening. HF* Dates to tho 29th ult., from Vera Cruz, have been received nt New Orleans. Nothing new had transpired. A mail from the city of Mexico was hourly expected. Tho 3d und 4th Kentucky uml 4th Indiana regiments had arrived at Vera Qruz. Win. I, Mitchell, Esq., of Athens, Ims been ap pointed by Gov. Towns, Chief Engiuuer oftlio State Road, iu place of Mr. Garnett. Col C. F. M. Garnett.—The Atlanta Miscella ny oftlio 4th inst. says—Wo have seen it stated jn our exchanges that this gentleman has been elect ed Chief Engineer of the Charlotte and Columbia Railroads. This is n mistake. The gentleman appointed to that offico is a brother of Colonel Garnett. Itbeuiunttam. Tais is ono of tho very nrevulcut complaints pe culiar to our climate, and is certainly among tlio most painful and agonizing to which humanity is subjtet. Many are the ‘remedies’ ottered for its cure, though low are such iu reality. But it is bolievud that a cure for Rheumatism does exist, und that lens of thousands now sutlering, uud des pairing of relief, might obtain positive and per manent exemption from this dreadful disease. Thn following certificate, which has lately bueu received, will ciutblo tho afllicled to judge for theiBselvcs. It is an EXTRA'ORDINARY CASE, and far the satisfaction of the incredulous, it has beennttested before the Mayor of the city: “Hereby certify, tliut for the past thirteen years, I hate been severely afjlicted with attacks of Rhcttimtism, principally iu the hands und limbs, ucconpnuicd with great stillness of all the joints. Samitimes the pain has been so great tliut I have beenuuable to move, uud my general health wus almnt completely destroyed. I was troubled with low spirits, my bruin was seriously affected, and die incessant and severe pains I hail often en dured, made mo repeatedly wish for an end ofmy suffiriugs by death. I think no linmnu being can iimqiuu my tortures. For relief I tried ev—■- thi eg—all my earnings went to the doctors, the vurious ports of Europe to which I sailed, _ soiglit medical advice, auu was for a considerable time under the care of the most celebrated physician 7,; in Liverpool, buthedid mo no good. On my arri ve in New York, last September, 1 wus obliged to leive my ship, us I was unable to walk a step without assistance, and iu other respects was in a druudful situation with thu renewed attacks. I was taken to the City Hospital, and put under the care or I)r. Moses land Dr. Hoflinan, and some other, physicians of the Hospital for the space of six weeks, but,-as I-only got worse, I was token to the Seamen’s Hospital ut Staten Island, where I was several weeks undergoing a process of mer cury.—This nearly killed me, nnd tlio doctors told me I mist soon die. As I had road the advertise ments ofDr. CHRISTIE iu tlio newspapers, and the gr<nt cures that were said to bo uiuue by his Gulvniie Articles, I determined as a lost hope to seud t« the office and get some. Ou stating my cugc, tke Galvanic Bands for tho wrists und limbs nud the Magnetic • Fluid woro recommended. The ptoplout tlio Hospitul laughed at uie for get ting them, and told me not to show them to the docton. I put them on nud used the Fluid. !• or tiie first few hours I felt no clutnge, but the next morning tlio stiffness in my limbs had decreased, and tiie pain wus loss; by night I felt better iu COLUMBUS, Dec. 13—Cotton,—Stock on hand, 15,058.

HY THF. BRITANNIA, AT BOSTON. Extracts of letters received in this City, dated, LIVERPOOL, Nov. 18, 1847.—Sinco tho de parture of the last steamer, the pressure in the money market has slightly abated, and there were symptoms of a more decidedly favorable change ; until, in the last few days, farther failures, inelu ding a very largo brokerage house in London, huve causod renewed depression und distrust; tlio position of Bank of England is somewhat im proved,but they adhere to their minimum rate of8 percent, for discounts, \\hilo their branches do nothing under 9 per cent, per annum.
