Row of the Students In Havana.
The Students of the University of Havannah are
arrant Fillibusters from all accounts. An Havana
letter states " that on the 10th or May, the anniversa
ry of the landing at Cardenas, the Cubans cele
brated the day, by letting off crackers, hurrahing for
foeedom, sticking up pasquinades, making speeches
amongst themselves, in which they lsshed the Span
iards, and played many other pranks peculiar to
youthful buoyancy ot' spirit; and the embers of this
little flare-up were fanned a few days after, into quito
a blaze, by the following circumstances: A person
holding a place in the University—a man with a large
family—was displaced, and bis situation given to a
Spaniard. The injustice done to the first worked up
on their sympathy, which finally ended in a war of
noise, which lasted two or threo days, when seven of
the young army-leaders were arrested, tho Professors
summoned before the Captain-General, and some
threo or fonr dismissed. To one he said, * I am aware
that yon have been collecting money for the Cubun
Junta*,’and another, an elderly, French, medical
man, he was about to attack, when tho Gaul, In lan
guage more bold than Cubans dare to nso, told him to
atop, that he had not come there to be insulted, and
that if he was guilty of disaffection ho should be tried;
that he had come there with the conviction that ho
should be dismissed, Ac.”
Cyrilla—A Tale.
Whoever has read that delightful novel, '* The Ini
tials,” will not fail to purchase this tale, by tbo same
pen. There is a freshness and simplicity in the Btyle
of the author. Human character and manners are
depleted, by strokes as profound as they are appa
rently facile. For one interested in tho study of Ger
man character and customs, the Initials form a text
book. The scenes in Cyrilla are drawn from the same
land, but its characters are taken from a higher caste
of society than tho simple Crescenz and the high
Bpirited Hildegardo. Much *of the plot is unfolded
by dialogue, which is sustained with life and spirit,
and interspersed with interesting discussions. Many
of tho conversations take hold of the reader's atten
tion as if carried on in the drawing room, by gifted
and intelligent talkers. It is a work of much thought,
and of a high degree of literary merit. It will tuke
its place among the standard works of tho age. The

Emancipation In Cnba.
The Havana correspondent of the Charleston Cou
rier says that there is a report in that city that Cap
tain General Canbdo had received instructions from
Madrid to consult the slaveholders upon the propriety
of a certain plan, which is to liberate the negroes,
binding them to servo an apprenticeship, and by way
of compensation, to allow the introduction of emi
grants from tho Coast of Africa. This plan, it is
said, has been proposed by the British Government,
and is to be forced upon the people at any rate. Some
Spanish merchants entertain an idea to bring blacks
from Africa as emigrants, aud afterwards do what
they like with them.
The Havana correspondent of the Now Tork TVt-
bunt, mentions the same circumstance. The Bcbeme,
if true, is one to discourage the annexing of Cuba to
the United States. It bears, however, Impractica
bility upon its face, and is perhaps only a device lor
carrying on the slave trade, by introducing blacks
under the name of apprentices instead of slaves, with
out giving any other distinction between the two
other than the name.
Railroad Meeting Yesterday.
r The meeting of stockholders to the Savannah and
Gulf Railroads was held yesterday, pursuant to a re
solution. The gathering was not as largo as it would
otherwise have been, from the storm which arose at
tho hoar of meeting. R. Wayne, Mayor, was called
to the chair, and the following resolutions by R. R.
Cuylbr, Esq., were offered and carried:
Resolved, That the following gentlomen bo, and
they are hereby, appointed and requested to act as a
Provisional Board of Directors, viz.:

5. H.D. Weed,
6. R. Wayne,
. 7. Thomas Parse,
8. F. S. Bartow,
9. J. Stoddard,
and that the Board bo requested to perform the fol
lowing services :
To procure subscriptions, superintend the survey
of the route, propose and procure the necessary char

A. A. Smeta, Seo. R. Wayne, Chairman.
Before the passage of tho resolution, Capt. T. For
man informed tho meeting that, in the absence of
Dr. Scrivkn, he took it upon himself to state, that
that gentleman was uncommitted by the present ac
tion, and would feel at perfect liberty to decline or
acoept the presidency of the company. This was
agreed to by the mover, and the rosolntions passed
without a voice of dissent.

or,until we reached the village of Butler, where
»Engine and two ofthe baggage oars were thrown
— the track, and the train delayed four hours. Here
ttoat of the passengers had the pleMura of maklni
the aoqoaintanoe of two gentlemen connected wUL
the Central Road who will always have a warm place
in onr hearts and homes—Mr. Wadley, the superin
tendent, and Mr. Ferry, the Englneman. We harried
aseoonaitbe accident ooourred to ; the front of tho
train and there found Mr. Ferry still at his post,
though the Engine was tilted over on its side, pour
ing a flood of water on the Area and lotting off the
steam—he had previously sounded the whistle, ap
plied tho breaks and reversed the aetlon of the En
gine—and we are, no doubt, under God, Indebted to
his nerve and promptneM for the preservation ofthe
limbs and lives of tho passengers committed to his
charge.
As soon as the fires were out, Mr. Wadley com
menced to repair the damage with a precision of
Judgmeut, and energy of will, which Immediately
won the admiration of the oompany. all of whom
soemod proud to serve under such a leader—foremost,
however, among the workers were Ricker, of the
Muscogee Road, and Goetohios, of this city. In four
hours the disabled care were removed, the road re
paired and every thing in readiness to proceed to
our destination. Having procured another engine,
the train was harried on to Macon In good time,
where wn met with one of those surprises which are
green spots In the desert of life. A large concourse
or citizens greeted our arrival with loud huzzas and
flung open a large warehouse in which a lunch was
provided, that, for variety, elcganco and appropriate
ness. never was surpassed; and the wclcomo was as
cordial as the foait was acceptable. After lunch,
short and appropriate addresses wore mado by R. J.
Moses, Esq., of Columbus, and Hon. A. H. Chappell
and Mr. Lochrene, of Macon, which were received
cordially, and we continued our Journey, enlivened
and made happy by tho presence of the Macon Dele
gation—whom wo round to be as pleasant and clever
a set of good fellows, as ever rode in a car.
At the 90 mile station (Griffin’s) we partook of a
hearty supper of good things, with which that table
always groans, and bad the pleasure or meeting a
committee from Savannah. Hero we telegraphed to
Savannah that wo would reach the olty by 2 o’clock,
A. M., but, on account of Borne defect of the Engine,
we soon found that it would be impossible to make
time. How we regretted now the loss of tho “ Fire
Fly I” These last nluety miles were the longest and
most tedlons on tho whole route, though tho officers
on board the cars did every tiling in their power to
while away tho hours and make our captivity agree
able. Had we known that the fair ladies of Savan
nah were watchers with ns—that her military were
under arms—that her aged and eloquent orator was
at his post to bid ns welcome to “ the ancient city of
Oglethorpe" until tho peep of the morning,we
should havo been still more grieved at our bad luck.—
This, however, we did not learn until the buruing
eloquence of tue orator, the wreathed smiles of beau
ty, and the cordial grasps of the military, gave am
ple assurance that the annoyances of the long watch
were all forgotten in the gratltlcatlon of the ro-union.
In the gray of the morning twilight we caught a
glimpse of the steeples of Savannah, and tho tails
masts of the shipping in her noble bay—and the red
sun was just peering above the horizon when the
Chatham Artillery, Capt. Galley, welcomed us with
thirty-one rounds from his brass cannon.
The Delegations were now formed In lino and
marchod into a largo warehouse, in which an im
mense conconrse of citizens were assembled, and tho
entire military of Savannah—a body of citizen s '
diery which does honor to the State and nation.
Here. Hon. John McPherson Berrien welcomed us to
the city of Savannah, to their homes and hearts, in
an address replete with eloquence and cordiality. He
was replied to by Col. Seaborn Jones in his happiest
style. And now we commenced to taste tho hospital!-
ies of Sayannah at a table spread in the Hail on which
was found just the thing wo needed niter 24 hours of
wearisome travel.
A procession was then formed and escorted by the
military, under command of Gen. White through the
city to Monument Square, where we were dismissed
with the polite request to assemble again at 10| o’
clock, for the purpose of takiug an excursion to Ty-
bee Light. At tho hour designated tho guests of the
city re-assembled, and, to the sound of martial music
were conducted to tho wharves and aboard the steam
era Gordon and Welatka, which had been engaged
for tho excursion. Very, soon the Bteamers left the
S tay, and pointed their bows to the sea, and amid
e booming of the cannon, tho crash of martial mu*
sio, the cheers of tho city and shipping, and the live
ly reports of champagne bottles, we sped witli easy
grace over the broad waters of the bay—as jolly a
crew as over trod a deck—nor stopped our voyuge
until having passed Tybco Light we looked out upon
the expanse 6t “ the dark blue sea,” when the steam
ers gracefully ronnded to and approached Fort Pu
laski. The gallant officer in charge of this stupend
ous work of national defence, Lt. Gilmer, threw open
its gates and bado us welcome. After surveying the
work we assembled on the northern wall and were
treated to four round from cannon of the fort.. At
each discharge, a ball visible to the sight, flew over
the waters and bounding along upon their bosom at
length sank beneath tho waves. So perish every en
emy who may como beneath its walls!
Upon the ringing of the bells we re assembled apon
the steamers, and at tho invitation of their polite of
ficers, Commodore Brooks and Captain King, seated
ourselves around their hospitable boards loaned with
every good thing—and under tho stimulus of tho good
cheer provided, returned to the city. Tho excursion
was a delightful one, and was tho more acccptiblo as
some of the party had never felt the roll of the vessel
on the waves or seen the illimitable sea. Tho only
fault we found with the trip was tho too generous
hospitality of our hosts and tho absence of tho noble
men and women of Savannah, most of whom bad
denied themselves the pleasures of tho excursion for
the more abundant accommodation of their guests.—
We appreciate the delicacy ofthe compliment, though
we regret its consequences.
At night we were invited to a Ball in a capacions
room magnificently adorned, it is said, but we candid
ly confess that onr eyes were bo much dazzled by
too be witching smiles and twinkling feet of tho love
ly beings who flew like fairies through tho dance, that
we could see nothing but their lovoly faces, and hear
nothing but the music oftbeirswoet voices.
We refer our readers who are anxious to know how
tho room was adorned aud the table furnished, to
those persona whoso minds are mado of sterner ma
terials than ours. We can only say, that the occasion
was one of unalloyed pleasure to those who partici
pated in it, and that everything was done to make it
agreeable, which good taste could suggest and genius
accomplish.
Thus closed the festivities of tho first day.
Tho morning of Friday was agreeably spent In vis
iting the city and its environs. We have not space
to-day for a description of Skvannah. We reserve
this treat for a more opportune occasion. We will
but say now, that the view from tho Bteeplo of Dr.
Preston’s church cannot be surpassed for quiet beau
ty in the 8outh. It is a fairy scone—a city in the
forest—the daughter of civilization reposing in the
bosom of nature.
At 12 o’clock a largo party assembled at Armory
Hall to witness the presentation of a cake from the
ladies of Savannah to the ladies of Columbus. Col.
Jones but expressed our own sentiments when he
gallantly announced that a glance would satisfy any
one that be was not tho embodiment of tho loveli
ness and beauty of Columbus; though a glance sat
isfied him that ho beheld before him an emuodlnentof
the grace, beauty and lovoliness of the women of Sa
vannah in the array there assembled before him.
On Saturday morning the great body of our dele-
S n Btartod for home. Just before wo reached
n’s we passed tho “ Fire Fly,” which had again
mounted tbo iron track and wildly rushed along in
our rear, but two lato to Join in the festivities. As
the b’hoys caught sight of the engine a wild cry rent
the welkin, and it was treated to champagne and
baptised tho “ Columbus.” Tho cheers were not less
lusty when wo bid adieu to Mr. Wadley, Just before
we reached Macon. Ho was quito as popular as his
engine. No other occurrence transpired of sufficient
interest to record, on onr return trip. Tho journey
was pleasant, and though we reached home as smutty
os we were on our arrival at Savannah, each of us
rushed to their houiis—some to receive the warm
embrace of wives and children—others of partial
friends—and others to the familiar placo which is to
us as wives and children and friends, but one and all
with warmer hearts and larger affections than when
we left, mid absolutely overpowered with tho intense
admiration which we feel for the noble, accomplished,
hospitable and generous people of Savannah. We
are ail swell heads—tho disease is contagious, and
originates in the profusion of a generous hospitality.
May it Bprcad to the farthest limit of our glorious
State!
And now that we have returned to our own loved
home on the banks of the beautiful Chattahoochee,
and in the quiet of our sanctum review the boundless
hospitality of our sister city, we are ashamed of the
meagre entertainment to which this was a reclproca-
c , omfort ourselves with the reflection that
wo did what we could,” and he who does most can
do no more. Her generous sons, during tho lato fes
tivities, kindly complimented os with the idea that
wo were now part and parcel of Savannah. Wo are
proud of tho honor. Situated upon tho seaboard, she
flies upon her swift winged ships to the farthest east,
aud levies her contributions upon every foreign clime,
and npon her iron oars sho penetrates tho mountain
and dasert barriers which for so long separated her
fromithe prolific west. Her growth to commercial
greatness is certain. But great as Savannah is com-

While these great movements are going on in the
North, the foreign population or Canton are in a state
of great excitement, on account of an attempt made
by the French residonts to hoist a flag-stair for thp
tri-color in the public garden of that city. The Eng

but the French trade and interest are considered too
insignificant to sanction one for them. The disiiuto

Federal Treasury System. '
On the removal of the deposits of tho federal gov
ernment from the late hank of the United States, the
various State bauks in Now York and elsewhere be
came the depositories of the money of the govern
ment. That is to say: the head of tho Treasury dt{
partincnt delegated its duty to the corporate institu
tions or the several States^uid the results were found
to bo disastrous ta the publlo interests. The act of
1789, creating the Treasury department, provided
that it should bo the duty of the Treasurer “ to re
ceive and keep the moneys of tho United States, and
to disburse the Batne on warrants drawn by tho Sec
retary of tho Treasury, countersigned by tho Comp
troller and recorded by tho Register, and not other
wise.” Notwithstanding that this law remained in
force, It becamo the practico for the Treasurer, in
stead of “keeping the moneys” until demanded on
the warrant of the Secretary, to lend it to associa
tions of individuals, incorporated as banks. Thcso
in their turn lent to their soveral members as in
dividuals, who bccamo speculators and hazarded the
public money for private gain. The immense evils
which speedily resulted made the enactment of tho
Sub-Treasury law a necessity. This law was simply
to point ont the mode and manner In which the du
ties of tho Treasurer, as prescribed by the law of
1789 should bo carried out. He was to receive and to
keep the money. The federal constitution recognised
nothing as “money” but gold and sliver. The law,
therefore, designated the places and buildings where
tho money was to be received, and in which it was to
bo kept, viz: The Mint at New Orleans and that of
Philadelphia, vaults in the Custora-houBcs at New-
York and Boston, and buildings in Charleston and
St. Louis. Four Assistant Treasurers, were appoint
ed to keep the money at the four lost named places.

The Convention next Monday.
We are sanguine that the Bailroad Convention call
ed to meet in this city on Monday next, the 6tb, will
be very well attended, at least by delegates from tbo
Middle. We have seen no mention of the appoint
ment of delegates from any county in the West, and
therefore not expect to see any representation from
that quarter. This will be a source of regret, m it
wm hoped that at least the two sections more imme
diately interested would go into counsel together.—
Bat it is not a matter of so much consequence, seeing
that for the present the brant of the thing fails upon
the Middle. Bysndby.the West will be aroused,
and will then be prepared to unite, heart and soul, in
the work. In the meantime, the Middle will come
up to the scratch, and will thus pat the ball in mo
tion. Bo fir m we can learn, there is a decided feel
ing in all counties—men of substanoe are earnestly
taking hold, and the prospect Is most cheering, a
subscription large enough for the purpose will be
made, and wo shall have the read.

ed to Keep the money at the four lost named places.
These, with the Mint officers, to give bonds ror the
faithful performance of their duties. All collectors
and receivers of public money are required to pay
over the receipts promptly to these “keepers” of tho
money. When the money is in possession of these
" keepers” it can be transferred from one to tho oili
er depositories by the Secretary, being always in tho
Treasury. But it can bo paid out of tho Treasury on
ly according to law, on the warrant or draft or the
Treasurer, in favor of a government creditor. It can
then be paid in gold or silver only, direct to the hold
er of the draft or warrant. It is obvious that the re
ceipts of tho public money are not always equal to
the expenditures ot the same point. At New York a
very large proportion of the revenues are collected,
bat the expenditures are not so great as at some oth
er points. Nevertheless, the rate of dratts is gener
ally in favor of New York, and a draft of the gov
ernment, issued in favor of a creditor or disbursing
officer at any point, on New York will command a
premium. He may pay it away, however, to a credi
tor, but unless it is presented at tho point on which
it 1b drawn within a reasonable time for transmission
it may bo cancelled. Tho object is to prevent tho
drafts from remaining in circulation instead ofthe
specie. It is at once manifest that nuder this system
tho government action cooperates with business.—
The drafts upon a central pointforming araoet direct
remittance, and tending as far they go, to keep down
the rato of internal exchange.
Nothing can bo more conducive to the general
welfare than such a system, properly managed by a
faithful public officer. In the last two or throe years
the most monstrous abuses have crept into the Trea
sury department. * Great difficulties and expenses
havo been Inourrcd through the want of skill ih tho
executive head of the department, and tho most dc-
liberate infractions of the law have been perpetrated
by thoso sworn to support it. Over $1,600,000 has
been drawn out and loaned, on security of fancy
stocks, to brokers, under circumstances which require
the most searching investigation. Month after month
has the monthly account given the amount of Bpecio
in the Treasury, when fancy railroad stocks only
were there to represent it The apologists, for this
infamous infraction of law, endeavored to exenso it
by alledging that tho present head ofthe deportment
had so far countenanced it as to coutinue the loans.
What are tho necessities of tho case ? Tho Secreta
ry comes into office and finds an immense amount of
money loaned upon securities that will not command
it in tue market. If tho realization Is pressed im
mense losses must accrue, and the only mode is to
retrace the erroneous steps of his predecessor so cau
tiously os to involve the Treasury in tbo least loss.—
There can bo no doubt, however, but that the strict
letter of the Sub-Treasury law will bo adhered to
hereafter, and that its admirable operation in the
hands of a skillful officer will confirm that confidence
in it which even the late disregard of its provisions
has been able to shake.
The Meallla Valley.
Gov. Lane has published a letter in defence of his
famous Proclamation on the Mesilla Valley question.
He supports the tone of his Proclamation throughout,
producing arguments to convince the Commissioners
of Chihuahua, to whom tho letter is addressed, that
the true boundary of the territory lies, not within tiio
limits of Chihuahua, but in thoso of New Mexico ;
that it can be abundantly proven that tho latter has
exercised jurisdiction over Mesilla; thatthe Procla
mation was issued under a conviction of duty and
with tho aid of legal advice, and that any opposition
to lt will be visited with the penalties of law. Au
thority for the course pursued is claimed on behair of
tho Constitution and legal enactments of tho United
States. In fact the Governor takes very decided
ground. Tho tone of the communication is not un
dignified, and the statements put forth are apparent
ly candid avowals of the writer’s belief. All infrac
tions of Treaties, if any such have occurred in the
progress of the controversy, are charged directly
upon the Mexicans, and tho boundary is termed a
provisional line, for the reason that all the members
of tho American Commission were not consulted in
its definition. The concurrence of Surveyor Gray,
and the other refractory members, is deemed essential
to the validity of tho compact. The Governor rea-
sonawell,and his arguments merit attention.—N.

Edith Hastings, who was married last week to Fred

of Honitonlace over poult desoie, a wreath of orango
