SERIOUS RAIL ROAD ACCIDENTS.
Whithin the last two weeks, two accidents
of a very serious character have taken place
on the Georgia Rail Road. One befel the
upward train, near Bel Air, about ten miles
this side of Augusta, some nights since, by
which, according to the Charleston “ Cour
ier,” one passenger had his skull fractured so
badly that his recovery is considered doubt
ful ; tiie leg of another was broken, and a
third had his shoulder blade fractured. , The
other happened on Wednesday last, to'the
train going down. We understand that the
Cars were’ thrown, entirely from the track,
and some twenty, or thirty passengers were
more or less injured—the lady of Rev. John
P. Duncan very seribusjy so.
COTTON MARKET.
During the paSK*week our rket has
been quite still, the Augusta market having
receded from J to jths of a cent since the
late accounts. There is a disposition, on
jbe part of Planters, to sell, but the dull
state of the market keeps them back. The
next news will, tea considerable extent,
establish a rate at which the article frill
be sold. We now quote from 4J to 6$ as
the extremes here.

THE PRESIDENT, Mtt. CALHOUN AND TIIE
i OREGON QUESTION.
. We see it stated that negotiations are now
going on between Mr! Polk and Mr. Calhoun,
with a view to the entrance of the latter into
1 the State Department, in order to re-open
negotiations on the Oregon question, and
that they have nearly come to an under,
standing as to the policy to be pursued, and
the terms upon which the question will be
settled by the United Suites. It is also staled
• that negotiations have-again been opened, or
renewed, between the functionaries of tiie
two Governments, for ihe setllenient of this
perplexing question. If Mr. Calhoun goes
into the Cabinet—and we have every reason
to believe that he will, for it is well known
that there has been • misunderstanding be
tween the President and Mr. Buchanan, in
consequence of which the-latler tendered his
resignation, which, by.the-by, was not at the
lithe accepted—the 49th parallel of lathwffe,
and the navigation of the Columbia, w*B; in
all probability, be agreed to, if nothing less
is accepted by Great Britain. Wo are
trfcly glad rhnt there now appears some
hope of the peaceable settlement of this
question, although we i liavQ good reason to
belieye tliat, sooner or later, the whole of the
Territory must be yielded to our Govern
ment, pr war, wm ensue.
LATE FROM MEXICO —MB.SLIDELL DISMISSED.
The “ United States Gazette,” of the 2d
instant, say^:—Py letters from New Or
leans, and papers,|\ye have further accounts
from Mexico. The revolution, which was
commenced by the movements of Paredes,
has been consummated, anew government
formed, at the head of which he is placed-,
with a Cabinet as follows : Geneial Almon
te, late to the United States, of
War; Lewis Panas, of Finance; Joaquin
dell Gastello and I/anzas, (formerly Minis
ter to the United Slates,) of Foreign Affairs;
and the Bishop Beceova, of Justice.
Paredes was elected President by a con
vocation of Notables, two from e£ch depart
ment. A Congresses to be called, but no
esst'iitial change is 4* be made in the guar
antees of the Republic; “ the actual counsel
to remain,consult Avitli the President in
aj! serious affairs; the authorities of the de
partments to fermiiii.'sxcejning those oppo
sing the plan; the judicial power to continue
in the exercise of its faculties, as hetetofore;
previous political opinions to be respected.”
Cotton had been sold at 331 c. cash.
This government, We suppose, will not
stand longer than-that which has just been
put down, unless it should be sustained by
fear and force. Paredes, though called by
the Notables to the Presidency, will only
find himself at the ioad of the nol-ables. —
4'beio arc Mefiieftft Iff Wo (IP illucfUfor the
present, forbid republican power and peace
l in Mexico. We find the following in a let
ter : rt
“ To-day the American brig of war Som
ers airived from Pensacola, in ten days,
bringing despetches fur the American Min
ister ; the latter having not been received in
his quality, on the plea of his credentiels not
being in order, was to come down to Puebla
or Jalapa, until fiesh instructions should ar
rive for him.”
We subjoin extracts of two letters of our
New Orleans correspondent:
“ New Orleans., Jan. 23 d, 1546.
To J. R. Chandler, Esq.: —
“ The brig Purio has just artived from
Vera Cruz, in eight days. Mr. Slidell has
received permission to retire, or ordinary
parlance, has been ordered to leave the
country. He applied for an escort from
Julapa to the coast, and vvas refused, and I
understand that some officers of the U. S.
brig Somers have gone up to escort him
down. The best thing our Government
could do now, would he to send a squatidron
down to Vera Ctuz, since it is useless to
negotiate.
“ 1 am just informed that the Attorney
General intends to prosecute the parties
concerned in the late duel. Os course, it
will be a mere matter of form, as no Jury
in this city would find a man guilty of mur

“The news from Mexico, by the barque
Pario, to which I briefly made allusion yes

HON. A. H. STEPHENS.
The speech of our immediate Represen
tative, in favor of the sitting tnembei from
Florida, (Mr. Cabell) retaining his seat, is
spoken ofjn the highest terms of praise by
all the reporters at the Capitol. The cor
responds of the “ Baltimore American,”
in his letter of the 241 h ultimo, says :
“ Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, addressed
the House with much firmness and energy
ami ability in defence of the claims of the
sitting member. He argued the case as a
judge, and examintd the law of the case, as
one having a just observance of the laws,
and as one having a high respect for tiie
popular majority of the State of Florida,
and of all popular majorities. He said he
was bound to examine this question as a
sworn juior. He had done so; and after
examining the case most thoroughly und
conscientiously, he had come to tiie conclu
sion that the sitting member had a —.ajority
of all tiie legal votes.”
ALABAMA.
By a vote of the State Legislature, the
city of Montgomery has been decided upon
as the place to which to remove'the seat of
Government. The news was ivceived in
Montgomery with great demonsjtratiofQmf
delight. Guns were fired, speeches mbde
and liquors drank, and we gatheV frorrtnn
extra of rite Advertiser, that the whofSlowlF
joined in a glorious frolic on the occasion.
Governor Martin, of Alabama, has vetoed
the Bill for the relief of Hon. Wm. L. Yan
cy, the object of which was to remove his
disabi'l'rty.tp hold office under the State, tre
ated by his duel with Mr. Clingman of North
Carolina. It is thought than the Legislature
will re pass thc.Bill over His Excellency’s
head. .

public documents received during the pre

OREGON RESOLUTIONS.
On the 29th ultimo, tho Hon. Thos. But
ler King,- of this State, offered, in the House
of Representatives, the fullowing Resolu
tions on the Oregon question :
“ Whereas, by the convention concluded
the twentieth day of October, eighteen hun
dred and eighteen, between the United
States of Ametica and the King of the Uni
ted Kingdom of Great Britain, for the pori
od of ten years, and afterwards ‘indefinitely
extended and continued in force by another
convention of the same putties, concluded
the sixtli day of August, ip the yeat of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred ani twen
ty-seven, it was agreed that any country that
may be claimed by either party on the
northwest coast of America westward of thfi,
Sfony or Rocky mountains, now commonly
called the Oregon territory, should, togeth
er with its harbors, bays, und creeks, and the
navigation of all rivers within the same, be
•free-v*>d opsn-Tb fW'tMksels, citizens, and
subjects of the two Powers, but without
prejudice to any claim which cither of the
parties might have to any part of the said
country ; and with this further provision, in
the second article of the said convention- of
the sixth of August, eighteen hundred and
twenty-seven, that either party migln abro
gate and annul said convention, on giving
duo notice of twelve tnoulhs to the other
contracting party —
“ And whereas it has now become desira
ble that the respective claims of the United
States and Great Britain should he definite
ly settled, and that said territory may no
longer than need he remain subject to the
evil consequences of the divided allegiance
of its American and British population, and
oftlie confusion atul conflict of national ju
risdictions, dangerous to the cherished peace
nnd good understanding of tiie two coun
tries—
*’ With a view, therefore, that steps be
taken for the abrogation of the said conven
tion of the sixth of August, eighteen hun
dred and twenty-seven, in the mode pre
scribed in its second article, and that the
attention of the governments of both coun
tries may he mote earnestly and immediate
ly directed to renewed efforts for the settle
ment of all their differences and disputes in
respect to said territory—
“ Resolved, by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of Amer
ica in Congress assembled. That the Presi
dent of the. United Stales be, and he is here
by authorized, at his discretion, to give to
tho British government the notice required
by its said second article for the abrogation
of said convention of the sixth ot August,
eighteen Imhd[ett nnd twenty-seven, Pro
vided, however. That ill ■ order to affqfd auq
pie time arid opportunity for the amicable,
settlement and adjustment of all their differ-i
ences and disputes in tespecl to said territo
ry, said notice might not to be given till af
ter the close of the present session if Con
gress.
. “ Provided further, That the said notice
shall be accompanied with a proposition
from this Government to submit the claims
of the United States and Great Bt kain to
said Territory, to the arbitration of a person
or persons, qualified to determine upext their
respective rights in and to the same. Whose
decision’shall be binding upon both nations.
” Resolved, That the Committee oi Ter
ritories bo and is hereby instructed to report
a bill organizing a Territorial Government
in Oregon, to go t iato operation at the expi
ration of the notice “aforesaid,’ termiiating
the existing Convention between ihfc two
Governments, the President in his
discretion and by proclamation shall suspend
the same (vfrhicli lie is authotised to ds) un
till the next session of Congress thereafter,]
I provided that, at that time the rights of the
respective nations to the territory in dispute,
shall not have been definitely determined by
negotiation or arbitration : and further, that
a copy of the foregoing preamble and reso
lutions shall accompany tho notice to the
Government of Great Britain herein provi
ded for.”
SMALL POX.
This disease which formerly,carried ter
ror with its very name, is feat ed much less
at the present day iii this country,-for'two
reasons—first, its ravages are checked by
tiie general prevalence of vaccination ; a'ud
Secondly physicians understand managing }(,
far better than formerly. Still howtevery
the disease is to bo dreaded and guarded
against. For the benefit of tlier public we
therefore copy the following from au ex
change :
Dr. Fahnestock, of Bordenlown, in tin arti--
cle on Small Pox and Vaccination', comes to
the following-positions as tiie result of his
observation and experience: *
1. That vaccination is the Rest protection
from siptill pox. It -modifies the disease
and preserves life, although it does not in
ail cases exempt entirely from an attack of
variolous disease..
2. That re-vnccination becomes.tlecessa
ty to test the protection oftlie system.
3. That nf'er re-vaccination,an individu
al may have a teusonable certainly of ex
emption from nil attack of vaiioloid.
4. That re-vaccination should be resorted
to all persons upon whom it has not been re
peated, whenever the small pox assumes au
epidemic form ; as the changes constantly
taking ylace in the human system, render
an individtiafliahle to infection at one pe
riod whjytnay [lave been exempt at another;
and particularly as* that liability is greatly
increased by the existence of the variolous
constitution of the atmosphere, which fans
otherwise sporadic cases into epidemic pre
valence.

THE TWELVE SISTERS.
The following condensed account of Dick
ins’ humourous description of the twelve
months of the year, under the character of
the twelve Daughters, may be amusing to
many of our readers :
“ The first is cold, stern, and unrelenting.
Her name is January. The second is very
diminutive in size, and is frequently worse
than January, ami always as bad. Her name
is Fcbrua'y. The third is spiteful in dispo.
sition, boisterous in temper ami passionate
in the extreme. Her name is March, The
fourth is as capricious and wayward as an
infant; now ail sunny with smiles; then ab
sorbed iiu, us. Her name is A}>rjl. The
(iffll is a’Cright and laughing virgin, whose
hours of mirth are seldom invaded, and
whose pleasure is the cultivation of sweet
flowers. Her name is May, Tiie sixth is
more serious and sedate; she delights in
shady groves, where she reads or meditates
at her leisure. Her name is June. The
seventh is hot, fiery and voluptuous; seeking
in vain to quench her thirst of pleasure.—
Her name is July. The eight is a maiden,
whose looks bespeak that mellowness which
is also to be found in the fruits that bang over
her bowers, or in the harvests, the gathering
of which she loves to superintend. Her
name is August. The ninth is staid and
matronly in deportment, combining the re
mains of the passions of youth with the dis
cretion and resetve of mature years. Her
name is September. The tenth is uncertain
and mysterious in her conduct; at one mo
ment sportive and gay; at another dismal
and frowning. Her name is October. The
eleventh is unhospitable and cheerless, frigid
and cold in her manners, tic. Her name is
November. The twelfth is a miserable and
shrivelled creature, dressed in furs and slip
ping at every step. Her name is December.”
(K?“ The following passage, from Bulwer’s
writtings, contains one of the most beautiful
and felicitous comparisons that can be found
in the whole circle of English literature :
Happiness. —No man can judgo of tiie
happiness of another. As the moon plays
upon the waves, and seems to our eyes to
favor with a peculiar beam one long track
amidst the water, leaving tiie rest in compar
ative obscurity ; yet all the while she is no
niggard in her lustre—for the rays that meet
not our eyes seem to us as though they were
not, yet .ah* with an equal and unfavoring
loveliness,’ mirrors herself in every wave ;
even so perhaps, Happiness falls with the
same brightness and power over tiie whole
expanse of life, though to our limited eyes
she seems only to rest on those billows from
which the ray is reflected back upon our
sight.
