The Atlanta Lxltpendcnt of the 11th instant aaja: OOV. SMITH AMD THR LAND SCRIP. Considerable growling is going on in reference to the diapoaition of the land scrip by the Oovernor. Had the amount been scattered in the State no practical good conld hare resulted from it. But sheer justioe would dictate that the oiti- zeat of the State should participate in its benefits in the moet practicable way, and that would be to aeleot a given num ber of young men each year, promiscu ously or otherwise, who will reoeivo an education at the State University free of charge for tuition. By so doing, all parts of the State ought to be satisfied. And the Sanderaville Georgian of the 10th, talk, thus sensibly: The Georgia Aobici i.tcral College. By reference to extracts from other jour nals, it Trill be seen that the location of this institution has been finally settled by Got. Smith in turning over the land scrip donated by Congrees for snch pur- poee, to the Trustees of the State Uni versity st Athens. That Gov. Smith has acted wisely, time, we believe, will clear ly demonstrate. Aside from the neces sity of the step on the part of the Exec utive, else the forfeiture of the fuDd, it also provents what was feared by many, a division of tho sum donated and the establishment of two or more feeble in- stitntions whose benefit to the State would scaroely have been felt outside of the immediate vicinity in which they were located. The truth of tho matter is, our educational facilities are much weakeued by a want of concentration. If one-balf the so-called Colleges were united in one genuine University the countiy would be greatly benefitted thereby. That the Old Capitol was our choice for the location of the Agricultural Col lege, we are free to admit; but this, it seemed, could uot be accomplished withont a division with another aspirant. \Ve endorse Gov. Smith’s action. The Milledgeville Recorder, speaking of the Governor awarding it to the State University, while other places were try- ing to get it, says: Those who sought to give other direc tion to the food, have shown utter ioca pacity for the self-assumed role. The Legislature aat and adjourned to a day subsequent to the time of forfeiture of the funds, and took no effectual action to save it to the State. The State Agri cultural Society dilly-dallied and lost their opportunity to control it And eo the Governor found it—ready to be loot to the State by the inaction of those to whom it was tacitly committed. Something must be done, and that something must be, to deliver it to some institution, hav ing the organio existence, required by the terms o: the grant The University was and is the only snch institution, not exolnded from the benefaction, by the laws of Georgia. It is true, some think Conley’s sale of the scrip obviated the danger cr forfeiture. But that is doubt ful, at the least, end it were unwise to needlessly peril the fund on such a doubt. Ty the Governor, there was no escape from the alternative and he acted pru dently for the beat interesta of the State. TELEGRAPH NEWS By the New York Associated Press. WASHINGTON. Reports of Committees—Congressional Mows. Washington, April 11.—The House Committee on Private Land Claims have agreed to report the Senate bill extend ing the Actor Jane 22, 1860, relating to private land olaims in Florida, Louisiana aud Missouri, with an additional aeetion allowing confirmation upon proof of pos session, sinoe the acquisition from Franee. The House Judioiary Committee have unanimously agreed to report on tho bill of Mr. Hams, of Virginia, in favor of re pealing the test oath on Southern Ante bellum claims for mail and census service. From Um Mobil* Bogislor, 7Ui April. Shame 1—And now comes the Wash ington Patriot, which professes to be the metropolitan organ of the American Democracy, and essays to ridicule Alex ander H. Stephens as an un teachable mouther over “dead issuea;’’ and also oomes a Southern newspaper—so intense ly Southern that it cannot tolerate the Northern Democracy—and copies the Patriot's article with approbation. The times are indeed ont of joint, and men are lost in the mazes of political demor alization, when such fruit grows upon, wbat should be, such trees. And yet, neither the Washington editor, who tries to laugh, nor the Mobile one, who re produces the abortion as fanny, is worthy to tie the shoes of the Demo cratic sage and statesmen of Geor gia. whom they would ridicule into their owlish wisdom. Mr. Stephens, like Aristides of old, is too sound a Democrat to suit our degenerate Athenians. They tire of hearing him called “the just," and they would banish him from their mean and cowardly company. Mr. Stephens' true offence is that he will not admit that the Constitution of the United States was made a “dead issue” by the surrender of Lee's sword at the end of a war waged before all the w rid “to save the Union.” He is simply a Constitutional Democrat, a character that cannot be understood by the par boiled, modified things called Democrats, who were whipped out of their courage, their dignity and their principles in the late war. The Chicago Coir.—Mrs. Leary ’s cow, with the crumpled horn, we fear, is in a fair way of losing some of her Chicago laurels. A Swedish paper, oalled the Norrhopingt Tidenda—a title which is anffleient guarantee of its honesty of pur- pose—declares that, a short time ago, a man arrived at Kettilatad from America, bringing with him a large amount of money and a big box filled with jewels and other valuables. He was taken with the small pox and died; bat some days previous to his death be cenfesaed to eevoral persons that he, in connivanoe with with others, had started the fire wbieh consumed the metropolis of the West, and that be only succeeded in es caping after surmounting many obstacles. AtslRtl Magra HmhIcMo. The Albany Central City of the 10th, Patterson and John Simmons, two colored voters, employed a few leis ure momenta on Tuesday evening of last week, in a warm debate ae to who sup ported One’ wife and child, she being John's sister. During the discussion One threatened to kill Johu if he dared to oome outside of tho house. John uiu oo, and vaa instantly shot down, the first ball passing through his hips, and the second through the abdomen. John died Wednesday evening, and- Goa now lire in jail awaiting trial.

The National Perfumery — Organism* tion—Ite Political Declaration. New Orleans, April 11. — In the National Colored Convention, the Com mittee on Organization reported and named Fred Douglas for President; James H. Ingraham for First Vioe Pres ident ; George T. Baby, Secretary. Ro pier, of Alabama, offered the following: “Resolvetl, That we, in the name of the colored meu of tbe United States, repu diate any sympathy with tho late Labor Reform Convention, held at Columbus, Ohio, and also tho Convention Df Liberal Republicans, oalled fur the 1st of May at Cincinnati.” Referred to the committee on resolu tions. Harralson said there were but two political parties in the country—the Republican and the* Democrats. The Cincinnati Convention was a Democratio convention. Pinchbaok opposed the passage of tho resolution, as it carried on its faoe tbe condemnation of Charles Sumner. He (Pinchbeck) would remain hero in Con vention a long time before his voioe should be raised to oondemn Mr. Sum ner. MISSOURI. A Dreadful Kesmbsst Kxploslon* St. Louis, Mo., April 11.—The steamer Occanus, from Red River, for SL Louis, when near Brooks’ Point, twenty miles above Cairo, at about 4 o'clock this morning, exploded her boilers, tearing the boat to pieces. All the officers are reported killed. Many passengers were scalded to death, or drowned. No names are yet reoeived. Sixty-five passengers were on board, and it is reported that but four or five were saved. NEW HAMPSHIRE. The Great Flood up North. Concord, N. H., Apiil 11.—The Mer rimack river is rising at tho rate of from 4 to 5 inches an hour. An extensive freshet isimminent. Reports from above, on streams tributary to the Merrimack, say that tbe late rain was very disastrous to property and covered the railroads. The bridge on the Contocock river was swept away last night. Tbe ice is rapid ly disappearing. NEW YORK. min In Mexico. New Yohk, April 11.—A Matainoraa special of the 10th says, telegraphic com munication with Reynosa boa beet re-es tablished, which shows that the Revolu tionists are not approaching from that direction, Palaccas is not enforcing the blookode of the Rio Grande.

TENNESSEE. Frank Cheatham n Candidate. Memphis, April 11.—General Frank Cheatham announces himself us a candi date for Governor, subject to tho Demo cratic State Convention. CANADA. Speech from Mr. McDoagal—HleOplaloa or Ike Treaty—Relallaaehlp Between Canada and Great Britain. Toronto, Canada, April 11—Hon. Wm. McDougol addressed his constitu ents at Almonte last night He con demned the scheme for a Pacifio Railway now being carried ont by the Canadian government as involving enormoni ex- K nditures, and aaid it would have been tt«r to have relied more upon water communication aud the American Rail road. He next referred to the treaty of Washington. It waa jnrt possible that Great Britaio and the United Stales might continue to differ about tha con struction of the treaty, in wbieh case Canada would not be called upon to take any action with regard to it; but recent information seemed to indicate that the difference would be settled, and Uiereforo the matter would oome before oar Parlia ment. It would be a fatal mistake for oar Parliament to refuse to confirm the Treaty, to which the head of tbe govern- ment bad attached bis signature. If the Dominion remains a part and parcel of the British Empire, we must submit to the oonaequeuore ol that position, and most be ready to do our pert towards currying out arrangements that may have been entered into, between the mother country and Foreign countries. We cannot remain as a port of the Em pire Mid act as ou independent notion.— We must be witling to allow tlua impe rial gore rum ant, in iu dealings with us, os otha* foreign countries, to make snob bargains as they, in their wisdom, aud in accordance trilb the public opinion of the Empire, may find necessary, and we must aoquicsoe like good subjects, and put up with the consequences. McDougal was quite ready to discuss the propriety of a political change, if it waa found that our position was an em- barrssment to ourselves and to the mother countiy. He was quite prepared to con aider wbat waa the best, the wisest and safest course for ns to take ; bnt, in par liament, they could not disouss this ques tion. They must there deal with things as they are. They must en courage Canada as u part of the United Empire. Tbe Maritime provinces were satisfied with the fishery olaims. He considered the importanoe of the ooncemion mads to the United States, and this matter had been generally over rated. As to the navigation of tho St Law rence, he held that it would be an ad vantage to Canada, to allow Americans an equal right on that river, and that in point of international law, they were en titled to it any way. He argued that the Imperial Government was, alone, respon sible for the treaty. ENGLAND. The Trial of O’Ceaaer Ike lieicen'e Ae- lellent—Twrlrg foathi end Twenty Lnekee. London, April 11.—The case of Ar thur O’Connor, tbe assailant of the Queen, came np in the old Bailey this morning. The prisoner made an inef fectual attempt to withdraw his plea of assaulting the Queen, with the mitigat ing ground of inaanity. A jury waa impanueled to inquire into the mental condition of tho prisoner.— O’Connor was sworn in hii son’s defense. He teetified that he (the father) was a nephew of Feargus O’Connor, and that several members of the family, besides the prisoner, were insane. The oeeuaed, he stated, was quite a student when n ohild, and fell into bad health, from which ho bad suffered ever since. The S risoner was wounded iu the head iu 866 and received injuries which ren dered him insensible for some time. The witness further testified that the prisoner was never connected with any political association. The jury was satisfied as to tho sanity of the prisoner und brought in a verdiet of (jti’lty. O’Connor was sentenced to be imprisoned twelve months and receive 20 lashes. THE BROOKLYN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, Cash Capital and Assetts $2,000,000. I W, M, C0LM, forretmry, m.

Murphy, in which he makes pretty tr— use of my name, and which I should not condescend to uotloe were it not for the general absence of fhet in his statement. It la true he has sinoe purchased my interest In the mill which I purchased on the 10th of Msreh, and which he ordered stopped In January last, without my oonsent, partly to coarea ma into an unfair settlement, and partly because the Umber surrounding it bad beoome so culled as to leave that portion remaining of very poor quality. As tbe mill is still in the same poeiUon the public may be curious to know how he manufsotores that "superior car and bridge lumber" ont of such mate rial.
