Mr. G. B. Lamar was elected President of

The former has been for many years the Presi-
dent of the Bank of tho Republic in New York,
aud hU name, as ono skilled hi tlnauelal affairs,
will give groat strength toouruew institution.
It gives us great pleasure to hall the pronto-
ttou of Mr. Jno. C. Fkkrii.l to the olTlee of
Cashier, so long Teller of the Planters’ Bank of
this city. While we realize the loss the latter
Institution will sustain in his resignation,we at the
same time appreciate the gain of the Bauk of
Commerce in so admirable an officer.
We understand that the Bank will soou go
into operation, with a capital paid in of 4300.*
000.
Tho great difficulty which our community
has heretofore labored under, viz : the want of
capital for business, is being speedily relieved.
We will be enabled at the opening of the next
business season, by the assistance of our enter,
prising citizens, to offer facilities equal to every
requirement of trade.
A Stranger in our Waters.—Wo had the
pleasure of meeting many of our mercantile
friends at tho invitation of our enterprising
merchant Mr. Joseph W. Wcb9ter, on board of
the beautiful schooner which bears his name.
She is one of those large sized schooners which
seem to be coming much lu vogue, and like the
iMyal Scanton, belongs to the lino of New
York packets. We hall the accession of such
beautiful craft to onr wntora, aud Merchaut
Marine.
As may be supjtosed our host did not allow
ua to thirst the while, the glass, the toast, the
merry jest passed around, the setting sun onlv
too soou reminding us of the shore, and tho fact
tlmt like all mundane pleasures,we should bring
to a close the christening of the Joseph fF.
fVebster.
Mr. Bright.—The Indiaua State Sentinel is
authorized to say that Hon. J. D. Bright’s name
will not be before the Cincinnati Convention as
a candidate for the Presidency.
Should the Presidential nomination be given
to the South, we doubt whether the Convention
could do better than nomluate Mr. Bright for
the Tice Presidency—the post which he now
holds as presiding officer of tho Senate. His
Democracy is of the adamantine—or, to speak
oonchologically,—of the hard shell order.
Georgia and Florida Railroad.
The Albany Patriot, of the 8th, contains the
first annual report or the President and Engi
neer of the Georgia and Florida Railroad. The
road, we understand, will he finished from
Americas to Albany, by October 1st, 1837,
though a portion of it will lie finished much ear
lier. President Tirr makes a calculation which
works out the nett profits of the road, when fin
ished to Albany, at over 10 per cent, per an
num. We extract as follows:
This calculation is based on existing facts, and
the comparative business of the South-Western
Railroad, with which wo councct, aud is es
teemed to be a calculation which will be realiz
ed in practice. But if any one is sceptical, ho
may reduce the cotton receipts even to 40,-
000 bales, aud the return f reights and passen
gers in the samo proportion, and he will still
find a nett profit of 840,400, or more than 11
!>er cent per amuun upon tho capital invested.
The charter of onr Compauy extends from
Albany to Thonmavllle, 67 miles, aud thence to
the Florida line, in the direction of Tallahassee,
14 miles, making a Trunk Hue from Americas
via Albany and Thomasville of about 100 miles,
with the privilege of branch roads which is en
joyed by the Savannah, Albany and Gulf Rail
road Company. This load is destined to form
the great North and South avenue for trade and
travel between the Gulf coast of Middle Florida
aud the interior of Georgia; und if the two
great projects now in process -the Savanuah,
Albany and Gulf ltailroud and the Brunswick
and Florida Railroad—should cross our Road,
the first through Albany to Mobile, according
to their charter, and the other through Thomas
ville, it would add value to the stock of the
several roads; they would cross ut right angles
to our road, und thus form mutual feeders.
Tire Port Pkhcivai..—Dr. Percivul tho poet,
whose death is announced as having occurred
in Illinois a few days since, though a native ol*
Connecticut originally commenced the practice
of his profession as a physician in Charleston,
8. C. He was appointed in 1824 an assistant
surgeon in the II. 8. Army, and his fine scien
tific attainments caused him to be nominated
professor of chemistry ut West Point, hut he
resigned his commission. The latec yeurs of
ills life were devoted to geological labors. Dr.
Percival never married. He was a man of sin
gularly retiring and unobtrusive manners, ami
seemed to delight in solitude.
A bill lias been introduced in the British
House of Commons by the Attorney General,
for the purpose of punishing as criminals trus
tees who have abused their trust. The hill is
likely to become a law.
There is, perhaps, nothing which more re
quires the attention of legislators than tho con.
duct of trustees. Yet a law of the nature above
proposed, if carried into effect, would cause all
persons to decline an office which is a thankless
one at liest, und, under such circumstances,
would tlx frequently criminal responsibility on
au innocent party. The abuses of trustees are
oflener by an over-indulgence to the ceriui ijue
trusts than in any other way. The Ijest method
which could be adopted, would Iks to place trus
tees (wlicu they accept tho trust) upon tho
same footing as administrators, causing them to
give l>ond and make returns of receipts, expen
ditures, &c._ .

say that l feel eneouragomcr
other and abler and letter men than I have
taken tho samo view of their duty In this crisis
which my own convictions have pointed out to
me. From all parts of tho conutr.v comes the
cheering intelligence that gallant, and patriotic,
aud high-minded leaders of the old whig party,
ever faith fid to the conservative principles which
they have professed, are rallying to the defence
of the constitution from the attack of its fanat
ical assailants. On which side soever of this
chamber I cast my eyes, I behold men whom
the whig party ever delighted to honor lending
their courage and strength to the success of
that common cause which we together have es
poused. Sir, the end is not yet; others will fol
low. The time will come, and come very soou;
sooner thau they think. As the desigus of the
enemy Itccomo more and more developed, the
patriot hand will be augmented with trosli re
cruits. Yes, sir; let the note of alarm be sound

formed; let them l>e told of the momentous cri

will crush It to the earth,once nnd forever.
We owe it to our respect for Judge Love to
publish the following commhnication, though as
to tho facts luvolved, we suppose the letter of
Gov. Broome conclusive. The reason why Judge
Love's card has not appeared earlier in our
columns is that the paper containing it was mis
laid :
[From tho Thomasville Watchman.]
To the Savannah Journal.
In the issue of the Watchman before the last,
I published a communication over the signature
of “Hope,” in which was tho following sen
tence :
“ There is a charter in the State of Florida
for aroud from Tallahassee to tho Georgia line,
which was obtained and is now held for the sole
purpose of connecting with any road naming
from the Atlantio through here (Tohmaaville)
towards the Gulf, and that this road would he
built by tho time, or before, the Main Trunk
would reach this place, no one tor a moment
doubts."
The Journal among other things, says, tlmt
iftlio facts stated in the above sentence can lie
properly established, they would materially af
fect the public sentimont in regard to the loca
tion of tho Main Trunk Rond. I quoto botli my
own nnd the Journal's language from recollec
tion.
The.se facts were stated upon tho authority of
W. O. M. Davis of tho city of Tallahassee, a
gentleman of high character and confessedly
one of the best lawyers in the State of Florida.
For the last two days I have had the pleasure
to travel with Mr.W . R. Pettes of the same
place, whom the editor of the Journal knows
well, and he confirms the facts as stated by Mr.
Davis. Mr. Pettes gives mo tho further informa
tion that the company is not only regularly or
ganized, (of which by tho w ay both Davis and
lumself arc members) but that the line has been
surveyed aud located, aud a profile of the route
filed in the office of the Secretary of State as re
quired by law. I learn also from Mr. Pettes
tlmt tho company havo the privilege of running
their read, if they wish to do so, to the East Pass
on the Apalachicola river, which is the best
harbor on tho whole Gull const excepting the
hays of Pensacola and St. Andrews.
Necessary absence‘from liume for several
weeks, and pressing engagements, will prevent
my giving further Attention to this matter for
tho present, hut, 1 promise the Journal that il it
is desired, I will when convenient, get up the
law and the testimony, and put the question be
yond doubt. P. E. fiovi;.
Theology of i\nv England.
Rev. David Wallace pastor of tho Associate
Reformed Presbyterian Church of East Boston,
lms lately published a thick phumphlct in which
he makes an effort to give u true view of the
New Englaud Theology of the present, as judg
ed of by her leading divines of the present nud
past generation.
The following ore the conclusions to which
the writer comes:
"There are some among the orthodox of New
Eugland, wno hold und teach the doctrines of
the IWestmlliter Confession of Faith, as held
and taught by the Puritan fathers. This class,
it is to be feared, is not numerous. There is
another class of the orthodox which must ho re
garded os holding und teaching, to all intents
and purposes, the Anueninuisin of John Wes
ley. This class is increasing. The tendeucy of
things seems to lie to sink all doctrinal differen
ces between Wesleyans and Calmians.'’
"That theology, however, which claims to he
the theology ot New England, embraces the
great middle class. It teaches tho decrees of
God, a particular providence, election, nnd the
perseverance of the saints, as taught by Calvin
ists generally. It rejects the imputation of Ad
am’s sin and Christ’s righteousness, and a limited
efficacious atonement It asserts tlmt man’s
ability is commensurate with his responsibility,
and tlmt his inability consists altogether in his
unwillingness. As to the doctrine of sin, de
pravity, aud regeneration, there exists a diver
sity of opiniou. Some bold to a depravity of
nature antecedent to actual sin, and to a degen
eration of spirit, in which man is altogether
passive. Others reject the doctrine of n sinful
nature, assert that all sin consists in unholy and
sinful exercises; ami teach a regeneration,
which is hut a change in the governing pur
pose of the soul.”
Shipwreck ami Awful Suffering at Sen—
Ten Uvea Lost-.Narrative ofC'nptaln
Rudolf*
[From tin* quo hoc Gazette, May :i.]
We have by private hand news from St Johns
to the 19th ult. The seal fishery had so fur been
pretty good. About 40 (one-fourth of the whole
Heel) had arrived, with about 100,000 seals.
It was feared, however, nimt the remainder
would meet with but indifferent fortune. A
dreadful shipwreck had occurred to a vessel
commanded hyCnpt. Rudolf, well known among
us.
Tho British hark Blake, of KOO Ions, Edward
Budolf master, belonging to Messrs. Firnie, Bro*

Ship Island harbor, State of Mississippi, Uni

bound to Gork for orders, in fine trim nnd beau-
ful order, on tho 8th February last, with a lino
fair wind aud weather, with every hope ol’niak-
ng a good and prosperous passage.
On the 13th, during a snow storm, she was
capsized;seven wore washed overboard, the
decks buret open, all tho hatches washed nil’,
and every morsel of provisions carried away.
The remainder of those on hoard were without
food or drink for five days; on tho eighth day a
small cask of water was got at and a half drown
ed rat was caught und devoured; afterwards a
man died and his body was reserved to be eaten
and was actually eaten In part , when on the
ninth day after the disaster, the schr. Pigeon

lioard ; two died of cold and starvation : aud
seven were saved.

VIRGINIA I'OI.ITICS,
Tho Petersburg Congressional District in Con*
volition, for the a ppolntment of delegates to Cin
clnnatl, refused to passed a resolution intraduo.
cd in favor of the nomination uf Gen. Pierce.
The result however, says the S. S. Democrat, is
no indication of the feelings of the Convention
in usmuchas many of his friends voted to lay it
on tiie table. Before the selection of the dele
gates, those in nomination were reftised to de
tine their position. This was done by Messrs.
Meade aud Ifarvle, (who were afterwards chos
en) us follows:
Mr. Meade avowed that, first of all, his vote
would be cost for that man whoso record squar
ed best with tho democratic doctriue, and whose
nomination would tend most to advauce tbe true
interests of his party—that, though of ull men
hi the country he preferred the llou. It.M. T.
Hunter, he was iu favor of tendering the stand
ard to our northern friends, aud that among the
threo most prominent of them, he had hardly
a shade of preference—that he eudorsed hearti
ly Mr. Pierce’s political course, aud regarded
him a Bafe, sound and reliable democrat—that
Messrs. Douglas and Buchanan he looked upon
as equally reliable, and as betweeu the three
the Convention could hardly err In the selection
of either—aud though of the three northern
men, as iu the case of Mr. Hunter at the South,
hopersonully preferred Mr. Buchanan, he could
uot say that he should cast his vote for him at
Cincinnati—that he should go there prepared
to sacrifice everything hut principle for the
good of the cause.
Mr. Harvie declared frankly that his prefer
ence was for R. M. T. Hunter over any man
liviug—that if he tiad the President to make,
Mr. Huuter would be his man for the position,
but that liko Mr. Meade, in the peculiar condi
tion of affUirs, he was for tendering the stand
ard to the North, and that he looked for tbe
nomination of Mr. Hunter as only a resulting ef
fect of inability on the part of the North to
agree upon one of its leading statesmen—that,
like Mr. Meade, he should goto that Convention
with uo predjudlces in his heart agaiust the
nomination of any of the eminent statesmen
whose names have been mentioned in that con
nection, but that he felt constrained to say, that
his decided preference was for Mr. Pierce above
any of the Northern candidates, hut that, as in
the case of Mr. Hunter, lie was - prepared to
sacrifice his preference for Mr. Pierce if de
manded by the true interests of the democratic
party, ana that he had no opinions which he
was not prepared to give to the Convention, if
asked for.
MORE SUPPORT TO MR. Flt.LMOltE.
The American State Council of Massachu
setts at Boston yesterday, after nominating aR
officers men known to be friends of Mr. Fill
more, laid on the table by a largo majority res
olutions repudiating his nomination for the
Presidency, and in favor of a representation at
the seceding convention in New York on the
12th of June.—JV. F. Commercial.
The following dispatch tells the rest of the
story:
Boston, May 7. -The seceders from the Am
erican State council of Massachusetts, to the
number of ubout fifty, conveued at the Adams
House last evening, and chose delegates to at
tend the Natloual Convention at New York on
tho 12th of June. Resolutions were passed re
pudiating the nomination of Fillmore and Don-
elson.
MB. HUNTER.
The Essex Congressional District of Virglniu,
in appointing delegates to the Cincinnati Con
vention, passsed the following resolution com
plimentary to Mr. Hunter: ’ ,
1st. Resolved, That in view of tho vital is
sues involved in the upproachiug Presidential
contest, it is important to select us our standard
benrer, a statesman of Incorruptible integrity,
ripe experience, eminent conservatism, unu one
fully identified with all the great measures that
make up the Democratic Platform.
That without detracting from the merits of
others, we may truly any that our own fellow-
citizen, the Hon. R. M, 1, Hunter, of Virginia,
combines those essontial requisites in a pre-emi-
ncut degree. To him is the country, us much,
if not more, indebted thau to any other livlug
statesman, for the succors of the principles of
Free Trade. For the sanitary inlluencoH of the
Sub-Treasury. For tho organization and estab
lishment of tho warehousing system.
For the creation of a tribunal for the adjudi
cation of privato claims uguinst the United
States. For tho inauguration of a system in ap
pointments to, and removal from civil office,
which, if faithfully carried out, cannot lull to
impart to the official corps a much higher de
gree of efficiency than bus heretofore been at
tained. For his successful efforts in restraining
the appropriation to wild und reckless schemes
of Internal Improvement by the Federal Gov-
eminent, aud lust, but by no means the least,
tor his earnest, consistent, and efficient main
tenance of the rights and sovereignty of the
States, as tho only meaus of preserving tho In
tegrity and securing tho perpetuity of the Fed
eral Union. We therefore earnestly commeud
Inin to tho favorable consideration of the Cin
cinnati Convention as peculiarly fitted to con
duct our country safely through the difficulties
both Foreign and Domestic, by which it is at
this time so fearfully beset.
The delegates appointed were Messrs. M. R.
H. Garnett nud Eustace Conway.
M anufactuuk'TiF*3otton.—It is estimated
that 701,406,704 pounds of yarn were spun from
cotton in England during the year ending Janu
ary, 1865, of which 440,108,131 were exported,
and the balance retained for home consumption.
Tiie quantity of yarn produced iu the United
States is stated at 230,730,000 pounds. The uv-
erago weight or cotton prints is six yards to the
pound; the weight of foreign prints Is about the
same; therefore, the raw cotton necessary to
produce a yard of calico or domestic costs ll
und 2 cents. There ore twenty-eight print
works in this country .producing over 3000 pieces
per week.
A lew weeks since, iu the Nicholas* Circuit
Court, Kentucky, Mr. Garret Davis was bullying
a witness named Roljcrts, and derisively culled
him captain, when the following dialogue took
place:
Witness—I am no military man, Mr. Davis,
but when you aro elected President, 1 hope you
will give me a commission. (laughter.)
Mr. Davis (furiously)—If 1 were President,
the first thing I would do woidd he to have you
hung, sir 1
Witness (with a quiet bow)—Thank you, Mr.
Davis; hut If I live until you become a Presi
dent to have me hung, life will become a bur
deu.'*
The Assassination of tlic Kntisas Sheriff.
The Chicago Times, the organ of Senator
Douglas, has the following startling comments
upon the late assassination of Sheriff' Jones, of
Kansas:
The assassin chose his horn* when thick dark
ness hid him from every eye: and even when
thus shrouded he appeals to have lacked the
moral courage to look his victim in the face;
for he shot him iu the buck. Here we have the
practical results of that military evangel preach
ed by rifle Beecher and his confrere Dutton.
Hero wo find a poor misguided unfortunate—we
say unfortunate, for his lot Is worse than that of
his victim—who lacking the courage to be bold
ly had, seeks to do the Emigrant Aid Society
some service, and of aiding tho cause in the*
prosecution of which ho undoubtedly went forth
\vlth a Bible iu one hand and a rille in the oth
er, by committing a secret assassination of a
mim upon whose lace, even while aiming at his
file, ho dare not look, Tho caitiff’must huvo
strengthened his hand and steadied his aim,
while his pistol was wavering over the spine of
his victim, by recalling to iniud Parson Dutton’s
sermon. His nerves must have required such a
sedative; nnd when ho sped tho bullet on its fa
tal errand wo can Iwlleve that ho repeated Dut
ton's Scripture quotation—“tho sword of tho
Lord and of Gideon.” If tho doctrino of re
sistance to tho legal powers of tho land Imj not
only taught lu high places with impunity, but
openly applauded by men holding high posi
tions .socially nnd Intellectually, is it any way
strango that tho ignorant, deluded by the so
phistry and acts of their iKjttera, should secret
ly put in practice what tho others had openly
proclaimed and taught V We think not, for it is
perfectly consonant with ull tho lessons taught
u« by history. And thh murder :■ tho fill blown
development of tho Garrison nud Phillips’ idea
that resistance to tho execution of tho laws of
tho Unite4 States is not a crime, But a virtue.

tKXuimd TIME*.
The animal meeting ol' tUo’American Tract
Society held'iii New York last Wednesday, call
ed forth no very brotherly manifestations on the
part of some persoris present. The abolitionists
have been labouring hard, for some time, to
make the society au instrument lor tho dissoml-
nation of their fanaticism. Not succeeding they
became enraged 4»ud It Is said,threatened to turn
out the old officers, Probably finding It imiws-
slbte to curry out this purpose, ono of their mem
bers disclaimed it with consldemble.indlguatiou.
We coudeuso from the Frening Post a re
port of the . proceedings of the first day.
Rev. l)r. Knox, from the‘ Executivo Commit
tee, read n report., in which he stated tlmt* the
condition of the affUirs of tho Society, were nev
er ill so nourishing a condition us now. The
recoipts during tho year have Been huger than
during any previous year.
Dr. Bacon, of New Haven, moved that the
regular business lie suspended. Ho said that
incendiary document* und assertions hud been
made, tliut there is to be au attcinpt'to revolu
tionize this Society. 1 deny it, and will uot
submit to any such imputations. (Isnid and
prolonged hisses nud cheers, which tho chair
man finally succeeded in checkiug, by, saying
that he did not wisti God’s lmly home turned in
to a theatrical exhibition.) He wild a reverend
gentleman at Ids right, declared these incen
diary sentiineuts from the pulpit, Inst Lord’s
day.
Dr. King said he never, upon any occasion,
had used any such expression us the gentle-
mau, whom he hail uever seen before, had just
Imputed to him, lu the gross and improper at
tack he has just made upon his private charac
ter. (Cheers and hisses.) lie was able to de
fend himself; but he would uot enter upon a
warfare with tiie weapons of which Dr. Bacon
had set him the Improper example.
A resolution was adopted to investigate the
operations* of the Executive Committee. A
great deal of debate, contusion und excitement
followed. Several persons attempted to speak
at the same time. Cries of “order” aud hisses
were heard from ull parts of the house. Kffbrts
were made to lay the resolution on the table;
and after beiug laid on the table, it was imme
diately taken up again, and disorder, noise and
confusion followed. The voices of raauy of the
speakers could not be heard. An eflbrfc was
made to pass the resolution, when Dr. Leouard
Bacon said:
The question must be taken by ayes aud nays,
or the Society disorganize itself, and become a
mass mob.
Rev. Dr. Hewitt—There is no foundation for
the remarks of Dr. Bacon. (Great Confusion.)
Dr. Cox—I have full faith in the operations
of this Society, but I am iu favor of an Investi
gation.
Dr. Knox followed in favor of a committee of
Investigation, though he had full faith in the
operations of the executive committee.
There Is no man on the floor, said lie, a great
er advocate of the Triict Society than 1 am. On
voting fora committee of investigation. Ido
not by any means express or believe anything
against it.
Reverend Joseph Thompson said: I move the
following resolution;
Resolved, That without expressing any opin
ion as to the course of the Executive Committee
in the past, or implying any want of confidence
in those committeemen, ns the managers of the
society, that fifteen persona be appointed to ex
amine into their operations and report it the
next annual meeting of the society.
Several persons rose at once to
great noise and confusion.
Dr.Bethune at length got the attention of the
Houro nud said:
A great deal has been said about Cteznr’s wife
and suspicion.
Well, sir. as regards this soolety, of what has
Ciezar’s wife been charged ? Nothing. Why,
then, press an Investigation of the executive
committee when there Is no charge against it?
I think It would be preposterous.. 1 have no
fear of the result of an examination, but I do
not Irish to express the shadow of a doubt up
on the directors of this society. I am not go
ing to be so false as to vote for an examination
of an uuimiieaclied committee. (limes «ud
chews.)
Dr. Hewitt—Every voice on this occasion has
acquitted the committee.
Dr. Bethune said—Mr. President, I vote for
this investigation if any member will lay .a
charge on the tablo aga.nst this committee.
The excitement, confusion and speaking was
continued for some time, when Dr. Adam’s reso
lution appointing ii committee of investigation
who should report at the next animal meeting,
was called up and passed.
The meeting then adjourned to tho Taberna
cle, the directors remaining to elect officers for
tho ensuing year. Tho followiug were chosen,

The late Court-Martial at Charlestown.
—The marine general court-martial, recently
held at Charlestown, for the trial of Capt.
Jabez C. Rich, of the U. 8. marines, an account
of which was reported for this paper, have
found the gallaut captain guilty of the charges
S ieferred against him,nnd sentenced him “tobe
ismissed from the U. S. marine corps.” We
are gratified, however, to state that the Presi
dent, despite the extraordinary finding of the
court, has mitigated Its sentence to suspension
for two months. It is the general opinion of
the officers on this station, and of all the resi
dents conversant with the circumstances con
nected with the vexatious charges preferred
against Captain Rich, that the finding and sen
tence oi the court are in entire antagonism with
the merits of the case Boston Post,
Things at Nashville, Tex.w—Jus.
Walker, the lather of General Walker, of
Nicaraguan notoriety, is a resident of
Nasliville. Ono of the lots vacated by the
recent burning of the Nashville Inn was

lars a foot. Tho small pox lms broken
out in Nashville, though not of a very
malignant form.—Sweet potato seed have
been selling at #5 per bushel in that city
this spring, aud none are now to he had
