GEORflMN & JOWL. FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 30. From Wnshlngton. Washington, May 29—The Senate has pass rathe house bUU granting land to Alabama ami Louisiana for Railroad purposes. The President sent In a message to Congress, informing them of the dismissal of Crumpton, and the Kritish Consuls. The House made the Dill for th« admission of California nnder the bogtu constitution the special order of the day for June 23th Squatter Sovereignty.—In answer to the Republican, it gives us no trouble to say that we are opposed to squatter sovereignty—and have ever been since the principle was udvunccd. Can the Republican say as much for its candi date for the Vice Presidency, A. J. Donelson ? i lur memory may be at fault, but have n decid ed impression tluit ho was one of the few South- oru Democrats who espoused that dogma when tir»t brought forward by Hen. Cass. Keeper* of boarding houses are referred to tin ordinance in the advertising columns of this morning's paper, in which they are interested. Democratic State Convention.—Wo arc glad to boo our Democratic friends In several counties moving in the matter of the appoint inent of delegates to the Fourth of July Con. vuution at Milledgeville. That Convention will receive the report of the delegates to Cincinnati, and appoint Presidential Electors. The counties of Worth and Clinch have alrea dy nj)ointed delegates,as follows: 11 ’orth County.—-Messrs. Edward Barber and Wm. A. Harris. Northern MeUtodloM «n* lUrery. We have published the mgJorRy report of the Committee on Slavery, made to the General Ae- eembly or the Methodist Church North, In see- aion at Indianapolis, making alaveholding a dU* qualification for church membership. It seems probable that this report will be adopted. Out* side Abolition influence is said to have been to* tivcly at work, with a view to briug about such action aa would bear upon the result of thePrc* aidential election. A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican thus alludes to the pest, by way of contrast with the present, exhibiting, aa a cotemporaiy remarks, 44 the progress made in that body by the fell spirit of Political Religion. i«n, since its withdrawal from the conservative Christian influence of the Chnrch South. "At the General Conlcrence of 1830, which sat at Cincinnati, there were then but about four or live prominent members of that body who would avow Abolition sentiments ; now they claim from two-thirds to three*fourths of the whole body. In the election of delegates to re present the various Annual Conferences in the present session of the General Conference, the slavery question wasuiado the test in every case. The editors of the Northern church Do pers, had kept the question constantly before the public eye. with a definite object m view, viz: that the holding of slaves should be made a bar to church membership, by a rule of dis cipline to be adopted at this session of the Gen eral Con fereucc. The Con ference has met, and a committee on slavery, consisting of ope mem ber from eech Annual Conference, thirty-eight In all, has been appointed. In this, and all other standing committees, the delegation from each Annual Conference appoints one of its members to represent them on these commit tees; hence we may conclude that the member selected for- the Committee on Slavery, fairly represents the sentiments of his colleagues and Conference on that subject. I have taken considerable naius to ascertain the strength of parties on this committee, and the result is, that 1 find there are twenty-six out of thirty eight for extreme measures on the slavery question.

I The same correspondent goes on to say,—and Thu Crooks T< »tiinouinU. | ue are sure every Southern man will acquiesce We would recommend to our friends in Caro- in the wisdom of the conclusion to which he iiua that the presentation of the stick and piece of plate to Mr. Brooks bo portioned to some more suitable occasion. The act of Mr. Brooks was a purely personal matter with himself; it was a necessary act, from the fact of Mr Sum ner’s irresponsibility in u personal way. It seems to us to be bad taste, and rather taking a leaf from the book of Beecher, Theodore Par ker, and others. How would it sound for the gentleman who presents these offerings to say— Mr. Brooks, allow me, in behalf of the citizens of , to present you with a cane, Ac., in testimony of our high nppreciat lou of the mas tcrly and able manner in wlricb you threshed the abolitionist Sumner, Ac.,—as these things are usually done ? We do not like to interfere in the affairs of our sister State, but should like to see the Charleston and Columbia papers en deavor to put a stop to the further prosecution of the matter. To say the least of it, it would l>e placing Mr. Brooks in rather a rediculous position, inasmuch as it would appear that Mr Bry.iks was more valued for the strength of his. arm than his prowess in debate. We ask the consideration of this idea from the Carolinians. comes— •• Should tlie extreme measures, now arrived at by the Abolitionists, lie adopted, uud the minority so far acquiesce in such an action us to endure it, the effect would be that the An nual Conferences now orguuizcd in Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Western Virginia and even Maryland und Delaware, would lie com pelled to withdraw, or cease to form any part of the M. K Church. For it is concluded by all that no slave Stuto would tolerate the exist ence of a Church in their iuid»t under the cont trol und government of such ultra measures. It is tofsave annihilation of these conferences that will force the conservatives, as they call them selves, to re-organize and form a new body. It would be far lietter, however, if all the Slave States would unite in one organization—all join the Chuich South, and let the free States unite undivided iu another. This must ultimately lie the result, uud the sooner the matter is per manently settled the better.” The following is an outline of the report of the minorty 44 Not beimr able to agree with the majority, they have agreed to present the following rea sons :—l. It conflicts with the constitutional provisions of the church, which prohibits the alteration or revoking of our Genera! Rules, ex cept by the concurrent action of the General and Annual Conferences. This report proposes to make a new test of membership, oy making the fact of slavcholding a bar to membership hereafter, and nlso affects the standing of our present members, by requiring them to be brought liefore a committee for an offence not now known—and this is to lie done, by the bare majority of the General Conference instead of twodhirda of both Geueral and Annual Confer ences. Thus making emancipation and non- slaveholding a test of membership. 2. Because our discipline and action against slavery is at present as strong os the good of the slave and existing civil laws will uilow. 3. Be* cause the majority report considers and admtlt What Is Thought of It. The New York Day Rook thinks—and we are of the aarae opinion—that if Mr. Brooks had given the Abolitionists one hundred thousand dollars in cash to electioneer with he would not have done them so great a favor as by flogging Mr. Sumner—though its editor confesses that ho has scarcely seen a man, who has read Sum ner’s speech, who does not say he was served just right. A dispatch from Washington says: .

A correspon dent uf tlie Philadelphia Journal says : ... , ... , ... „ , The very best of feeling prevails, and us yet And we tell our Southern Inends, with all . no severe or unbecoming language hits been candor, mid with nil friendship, that unless | used. The impression is liecoming stronger they desire to convert thewhole of tho free h States into determined antagonists, they must unite with their conservative fellow-citizcus in those States iu frowriing upon and denouncing alt such attempts to bully and frighten those who differ iu sentiment from them, ns that perpetrated by Mr. I*. S. Brooks upon Mr. Sumner.” The Commercial intimates very explicitly for itself and its canter native (?) friends, that if tlie South does not niuko haste to rebuke Mr. Brooks, they, for their part, will join tlie Aboli tionists. To which, all that we have to say is, gentlemen, do your worst: we ask no favors. And our opinion is that the sooner those who were waiting for such an excuse as that fur nished by the act of Mr. Brooks (much as we may regret that act) to take themselves into tlie Abolition camp—tho sooner they join the traitors the better. A ml if it will help them on any, we promise to retract all that we may liuve intimated in the way of disapproval of Sumner’s chastisement. The following we find in a letter from Wash ington : "Mr. Crittenden said: 'This is u shameful outrage ;’ to which Senator Toombs replied: • No, it is not.’ Mr. Crittenden rejoined: 4 The Senate is no place for it.’ Senator Toombs an swered : 4 Tho Senate is the very place for it. 1 ” The Richmond Examiner thus remark* upon the " outrage: ” 44 llo concludes a two days’ discharge of scholarly platitudes and pedantic dullness by venting a Lltliy stream of billingsgate on heads hoary with age; answers insult from men who would afford him personal satisfaction with vul gar epithet: und when caned for cowardly vitu peration, falls to tlie floor an inanimate lump of incarnate cowardice, and most glorious exem plar of the man of ptuce." The following is from the Richmond I ring: "A Goon I)kki».—As will be seen by tele graph, Mr. Brooks, of Smith Carolina, alter tlie adjournment of tin* Senate mi yesterday .admin istered to Senator Sumner, the notorioim and foul mouthed Abolitionist from Ma»saehui<elts, no elegant and effectual caning. Wo are re joiced at this. The only regret we feel is, that Mr. Brooks did not employ a horsewhip or a cowhide upon his slanderous back, instead of a cane. Wo trust tho ball limy be kept in mo tion. Howard and others should catch it next.” The Annapolis Caxottu slates that efforts are making to have that city constituted (lie head quarters of the eastern division of the army. It is proposed to use Fort Madison for tho accoiii uiodationof the soldiers, while Hie officers will provide tlieir residence in Annapolis.

Great interest is felt by the outsiders, among whom are men from ull sections of our church. Lord Goderich.—Lord Goderich, who has taken up the Central American question in the British Parliament, is a young nobleman of high promise, and a great admirer of American in stitutions. Ho is tlie oldest son of I/ird Itipou, who ut one time was Premier fora few months, and known, for his wunt of success,as "Goosey Goderich.” He was afterwards President of the Board of Trade under Sir Robert Peel’s ad ministration. Tho present Lord Goderich’s politics differ from those of ills family. He is a strong radical. On tho death of ids father and uncle, Karl do Grey, tho two fortunes will be merged in him, and he will lie, after Lord Westminster, probably the wealthiest peer in England.

Mr. Gordon addressed the Board, reviewing the testimony closely and candidly; after which, upon motion of Alderman Lachlison, seconded by Alderman O’Byrne, the fine was remitted. Reports ql Committees were next iu order. Committee on Lota and Wharves, Alderman Bradley, Chairman, touching the application of Messrs. McAIpin and Stiles to land brick at the public wharf, reported unfavorably. Alderman Lackllson moved a reconsideration of the re port, and offered a minority report. Alderman Lacklison thought brick a product of the soil, and therefore entitled, underexistingordinon- ance, to land. Alderman Allen thought, upon Jha.same principle, cotton could be landed. He contended tlie ordinance referred to was intend ed to allow only the landing of vegetables and small wares. Alderman Cohen read tlie ordin ance, showing what could be landed, confirming AUfehnan Allen’s view. Alderman Arnold thought the ordinance plain, uud would sustain the majority report. He would vote for confirm ing tlie majority report. Alderman O'Byrne spoke in favor of the minority report. Alderman Posy spoke in favor of the majority report. Alderman Kelly moved the question. Minority report confirmed. All other reports confirmed, among which were one extending the lease of the ground story of the Exchange to R. B. Hilton & Co.; one allowing Mr. Thommassy, certain privileges in the manu facture of salt, &c. &c. A communication was offered to the Board by Air. Robt Habersham, relative to the erection of a wooden addition to the residence of W. Neil Habersham, desiring to have the matter referred to Council, to know If tlie improve ments wero Iu violation of the Fire Ordinance. Alderman Walker moved a reference of tlie matter to a Special Committee. Aldermen Posey and Allen favored immediate action. Alder man Walker simply wished to have tho ordi. nance observed—he would not oppose tlie im provements if they are not in conflict with the law. Dr. Posey proposed au amendment to tlie existing Fire Ordinance to allow tin or tnctul to lie used as a covering to additions to houses. Alderman Arnold approved Dr. Posey’s sug gestion, and moved an amendment to the ordi nance accordingly. Aldermen Allen, Bradley. O’Byrne and Cohen, spoke upon the subject, Alderman Basinger offered an amendment to the 2d section of the Fire Ordinance, allowing the use of tin. Alderman Arnold’s motion prevailed. Alderman Basinger’s proposed amendment to the Fire Ordinance was referred to Commit tee on Fire Department. An amendment to tlie Ordinance relative to the place of holding Police Court, requiring the Court to be held at tlie Exchange only, was road. A motion was made to lay the proposed amendment on the table. Alderman O’Bryne sustained the amendment; butwonld consent to have the matter laid over if ho could see any necessity for delay. Iu petty offences ouly, Al derman O’Byme had no objetion to have tried at the Guard House; but thought, all things considered, one place should be fixed upon— either hold the Court at the Guard House or the Exchange. Alderman Arnold, seconded Alder man Walker’s motion to lay the matter on the table until next meeeting of Council. Carried. An ordlnuncc relative to a plankroad to con nect with the Ogcchee Plankroad, within the limits of the city, wan read the second time, and passed. Several petitions were read and passed, or re ferred to appropriate Committee. In relutiou to the petition of Henry Williams, Esq., as ex ecutor, and individually, praying relief from double taxes. Granted. Afterwards reconsidered. Upon motion of Alderman Cooper, the peti tion was laid upon tlie table until ho comply with usual rule. Relief was granted in similar cases iu favor of I)r. C. W. West, and Mr. Jew- stun. In a similar case, Thomas Heury, trustee Ac., petition referred. Caroline S. Compton was relieved from erroneous tax. Michael Kill, mau was relieved from double tax. J, M.

Tlie Board ucccpted the invitation of the Chief of tho Fire Department to inspect the engines and fire apparatus under the euro of tlie colored firemen, upon tlieir uunual parade to-morrow. The special committee, to whom was referred tho matter relative to the construction of tlie Mamin School House, reported that thus fur ull tlie work luid been accomplished in u substan tial uud workmanlike manner—iu all respects (ucditnble to tlie architect and builder. Alderman Allen referred to street gossip re lative to tills building. Alderman Cohen asked, in substanco, of Alderman Allen if ho intended, in what he said of "street gossip,” to refer hi any manner to himself—(Alderman Cohen)— to which Alderman Allen replied—"well, If you pleuse so to consider it.” Aideman Cohen responded: "Sir,! pronounce you a puppy— you have suid you hold yourself rrxpomiblr, und 1 hope you will prove yourself so.” Alderman Cohen was immediately culled to order. Con siderable discussion followed among tlie respec tive members of the Board. Alderman O’Byrno opposed tlie reception of tho report, principally on tho ground tliut two, If not tlirco, of tlie Committee had previously expressed un opinion in favor oi the building, and, therefore, not competent to act Aid. Arnold did not wish to consume time - he originated the moveineent of Die Committee The Commltteo, composed of cxiierts—men of character In tlieir profession—huvo given the matter careful Investigation, and he moved tho report lio spread upon tbe minutes uf the Coun cil, and that the same be published. Alderman Cohen had no objection to receive and print, but was opposed to approval. Upon motion of Alderman Arnold, tho report was re ceived and ordered printed. He next moved the adoption of the report. Alderman Cohen wished his name recorded os saying no. Upon a call of ayes and noes, the following was the re sult, viz: Ayes—Aldsrmen Bradley, Champion, Basin; ger, Kelly, LacKllsott, Cooper, Posey, Arndld. Noes—Aldermen O’Byrno, Walker, Cohen. Aid. Walker said be voted no ou the ground that be considered it sanctioning a plain viola tion of ordinance. A communication was read from D. It Dillon relative to valuation of a certain building foot of West Broad street, ou the wharf, belonging to the city. Aid. Champion offered a isolation to pay Mr. D. $050 for said building. Adopted. Aid. Cohen arose to apologise to his Honor and to the Board for luuguage applied to Aid. Allen; but wished it distinctly understood that he did not withdraw the remark personally to Alderman Allen, unless tlie cause for tlie same was withdrawn. Alderman Allen replied tliat the remarks were intended alike " for Alderman Cohen and others’’—or for any one uud ull who had parti cipated in the 44 gossip ’* alluded to. Alderman Cohen said he had indulged in no gossip, but in ull he had said he had been specific. Alderman Allen said he had reference to the general de bate and to tulk on the street, and nothing per sonal to Alderman Cohen: upon this explana tion Alderman Cohen replied he would cheer fully withdraw tlie epithet applied to Alderman Allen. In this report we may not have retained the precise language of the Aldermen in ail things, but we believe we have preserved tlie substance of what was xiid.

Tho cholera continues its ravages throughout the greater part of the empire, in Rio de Ja neiro, however, it had uimo»t disappeared. The total numlftr of deaths from cholera, from the time of its lir.-t appearance to the 31st of March, is repotted iu tlie Journal de Commerdo, of the 2d of April, as 4^25.

Iu the Journal do Commerce), ol the 3lst of March, accounts are given of tlie ravages of the disease in other provinces. A letter dated Sao Luiz, March Nutates that iu that capital of Maratiiiao, tie- disease had changed uud assum ed the appeuruucc of the epidemic dysentery, or of u dyseutericepidemic. The mortality from tills cause, during the flr.«t sixdayaofthe month is reported at 18, outol'u total ol‘30, iu the popu lation of about 30.U00. The weather was very hot there. A letter dated Parahyba, March 17, represents both tlie city and the province generally, of tliut name, to lie in a lamentable condition from the afllictions of the scourge, it is regarded us having reserved the word, of its malignity, its treachery, and its tenacity, for that portion of tho empire, in the capital itself,the population of which is given at lo.OUU, the mortality of tlie ltitli was ID, and had never been less than 30 a day since the disease broke out, nml the pro portion was similar iu other parts of the pro vince. Thu inhabitants were so afraid of tlie contagion of tlie disease that hooks were used to change tlie linen of tlie patients; uud inter- meut at the capital was liecoming very difficult. On the banks of the river Parahyba, where tho disease was nt first very severe, it had slight ly abuted in malignity. Ou the sea coast uud on the river Mamangoane, on the. other hand, it was committing terrible havoc. There were not medical men enough to attend to tbo sick, those there were demanding exorbiant fees, remedies were scarce, and what was worse still, there was a scarcity of provisions, increasing from day to day. Natuba, which had just suffer ed sadly from un foundation, had been next ut terly desolated by tlie iiestileuce, iu live days. In the Proviucc of Peruurobaco, the disease had been no less mortal, but is reported to have appeared to be about to decline. A communi cation, dated Recife, March ID, says that tbe previous day the deaths nmounted to sixty-three, making n total of 2,040, since the commence ment of tiio disease. This is a sad proportion, even if the population of thewhole district— some 38,000, according to Lippincott's Gazette —is referred to, and terrible indeed, ifonly tliut of the city proper—18,000*-is regarded; uml tho latter appears to be what is intended by tbe writer. In Iguatassu and Goyannu, tlie disease con tinued with unabated malignity. Some propri etors there hud become no longer able to curry on tlieir estates, their slaves having all died; and at Nazareth, it is stated, not only all tlie slaves died, hut the proprietor, his wife, and their children succumbed in one fell holocuust! Tho new colony of Piineuteiras had also suffer ed severely, having lost 1.0 out of its small com munity. Fron Sao Salvador, the capital of Baltin, letter dated March 23, states tliut tlie epidemic was unfortunately not yet quite extinct iu Unit province. In Sao Salvador itself, cases were said to bo pinoipuUy confined, however, to persons of Irregular habits or given to excess. At Conde the epidemic was increasing, and it had made its appearance at Itnplcuru. Yel low fever lmd made its appearance ut San Sal vador, and U0 patients lmd already been taken to Mont Serrat hospital, all belonging to foreign vessels which had arrived at tlie port.

Such arc tlie provisions of this curious docu ment! Tlie reader perhaps knows that within u few years maHcuuue clubs have augmented so considerably in Paris that the other sex arc al most deprived ol* eveiilng society. Tlie com plaints of wives, sisters and others uguiust the dubs is the perpetual subject of conversation, which the few adventurous men who do go into society are obliged to hear. Then the Bourse, the horse-race, the chase, the stable, the green- rooms of the theatre, tho pipe, etc., help enor mously to swell the incentives to tlie formation of such a club as tliat of the Revolts. The name itself indicates the nature of the institu tion. It is organised to carry on reprisals. The same chronicler who gives the above copy of tho Constitution, says that there is a se crct annexe, which, among other piquant pro visions, gives to members tlie right to inscribe on a bulletin board, placed in one of the rooms of tho club, the name and qualities of any per son or persons of whom they may have suffered wrongs, with a statement of the nature of the wrongs. The Club is organized on a high basis of re spectability. Tlio black ball has been freely used, and it will be curious to follow the operations of this unique institution.

Mr. Scmner'n Version of the AiTnic, Mr Saiuuer having been waited on by the House Committee gave a statement of the uflair —He says after the adjournment, lie continued at hia seat waiting for the mail. We quote ns follows ; While thus intent, with my head bent ever my writing, I was addressed by a pereon vs in- approached the front of my desk, so entirely unobserved that I was not aware of his pres ence until I heard my name pronounced. As i looked up, with my pen in my hand, I saw a a foil man, whose countenance was not Imili- ur standing directly over me, and nt the same moment 1 caught these;; wordss "I have read your speech twice over carefully, it is a libel ou South Caroliua and Mr. Butler, who i* & relative of mine.” While these words were still passing from hi* lips, he commenced a succession of blows with u heavy cane on my bare head, by the first of which I was stunned so as to lose sight. I nu longer saw my assailant, nor any other person or oblect in the room. What I did afterward* was done almost unconsciously, acting under instincts of self-defence, with my head alreudy bent down; 1 rose from my seat, wrenching up my desk,which was screwed to the floor,and then pressing forward, while my ussailaut contined uU blows. 1 had no other consciousness until I found myself ten feet forward in front of my desk, lying on the floor of the Senate, with my bleeding head supported on the knee of a gen tleman, whom I soon recognized by voice and manner as Mr. Morgan, of New \ ork. Other persons there were about me offering friomliv assistance, but I did not recognize any oftlic-ni. Others there were at a distance,^looking on and offering no assistance, of whom I recognized only Mr. Douglas, of Illinois, Mr. TooniLs. of Georgia, and I thought also my assailant stand ing between them. On cross examination, Mr. Sumner said that lie was entirely without arms of any kind, and that he had no notice or warning of any kind, direct or indirect, of the assault. Tlie statement of Mr. Snmnerwas the subject of remark in the Senate Tuesday. Mr. Slidell called the attention of the Senate to a telegraphic report, published this morning, jiving a report of the evidence of Mr. Sumner jefore the joint committee, who were investiga ting the^assault on|him. A long debate on tills subject ensued, attend ed by some excitement. Messrs. Slidell and Douglas disclaimed nuy knowledge tliat the assault was contemplated. Mr Toombs denied being near Brooks when tlie assault was committed, but lie approved of tlio act. Hud Mr. Butler been present, he would lmve assumed nil tlie responsibility. Mr. Wade, of Ohio, said if the principle of as saults was to prevail, he would have to come in to tlie Senato Chamber armed. "Although you ure four to one, I do not fear to meet you. A man can die in no better cause tbau the’defence of tlie liberty of speech.” Mr. Wilson, of Mass., said the assault was brutal, cowardly, aud murderous. Mr. Butler promptly aud emphatically denial tlie charge that it was of that character. Fatal Accidknt—\V«> regivl lo learn tractor, R It.
