Cortina*, (he* Cruder of the BROWNSVILLE ASSAULT. The New York Times give* the fol lowing statement respecting the leader of the recent attacks on Brownsville, in Texas : Public attention is at this moment diverted from the outbreak at Harper’s lerry to one of another sort in the re- . gion of Brownsville, Texas, headed by Cortinas, said to be a Mexican. The extent of this guerilla chieftain’s opera tions, and the pertinacity with which he pursues his murderous plans, would lead to the belief that he is giving free course to deep seated and long smothered feel ings of revenge. If the information we have at hand respecting this man is cor rect, and we have every reason to believe it is, such is the true stale of the case. “Cortinas is about forty-five years of age, and was born at a ranch on the Tex as side of of the Ilio Grande, known as Edinburg, some ninety miles above Brownsville. During the Texas war with Mexico the family of Cotinas was according to his story, robbed and un mercifully treated by the Americans. — . Since that period he has led rather a predatory life, some times at peace, but in the main robbing, stealing horses, and in various ways evincing his hatred of the whites. A few years since one of his friends or companions was executed at Brownsville, and Cortinas himself w as imprisoned at that place eighteen months ago, and on his escape or release he vow- ; ed signal vengeam-e against the sheriff and other citizens of the town, by whom he considered himself grievously wrong ed. It is in fulfilment of his oath of re venge that Cortinas is now, with other disaffected Texans of Mexican birth, half breeds, Indians and ruffians of various grades,endeavoring to lay waste Browns ville and its vicinity. This affair does not originate in any ill-feeling on ihe part of Mexicans on the other side of the Rio Grande: and whether Cortinas or any of his band have in reality experi enced ur.just treatment from their fellow citizens of Texas, we of course do not pretend to decide, it is probable these outlaws will continue the war upon Brownsville until a stroug force arrives, when they will doubtless flee into Mex ico.” Important Imperial Decree— The Deception of the Anieri eau niuoler. The following most important, Chi nese decree ap|>eared in the Perkin Ga zette, of the 9th of August. It gives a very nvsderatc account of the British repulse on the Peiho, and professes, on behalf of his Celestial Majesty, the most friendly feelings towards the Uni ted States and the American Envoy. < f the Americans, it speaks as follows : ‘•The American Envoy John Ward, kept his engagements with Kneiliang and his colleague ; sailed to the port of Pch-tang, and begged for permission to go up to the capital to present a let ter from his government. We accord’ ingly authorized hts admission into Pe kin to present it, and having this day perused the letters addressed by the American Euvoy, John Ward, to to Kweiiiang and Hwashana. and laid before us by those Ministers, we find the language so respectful, the true hearted ness that has prompted them such, that we have authorized the En voy in question to present the letter he is charged with from his govern ment to Kweiiiang and his colleague, whom we have sent to receive it. ‘•As regards the exchange of his trea ty, be ought properly to return to Shang hai and exchange it there, but in con sideration of the long voyage he ha* made, we (are pleased) specially to au thorize that the seal be appended to the treaty, and it be delivered ro llangfuh to haud in exchange (for another copy) to the aforesaid Envoy, that from the date of the exchange there may be peace and commerce forever more. Thus do we manifest our great desire to show a nursing tenderness to the men from afar, and our appreciation of good faith and right principle. “Let Kweiiiang and Ilwashana signi fy this our pleasure to the Envoy John Ward for his information. Respect this !’* Cotton Shidments. —The following inlaud movemeut of cottou begins to at tract attention in commercial circles: During the year ending August 31st last, the Cineimiatti Chamber of Com merce report states that there was receiv ed at Cineimiatti 49,946 bales of cotton, the highest quantity at any previous year being 29,t00 bales in 1836. Os the first named quantity, 3700 bales were shipped up the < >hio river, and 35,400 bides were sent by canals and railways northward. Philadelphia re ceived, in 1858, 12,000 bales of cotton by railroad from tin West, but for 1850 we are unable to say w hat quantity has to come; it will probably go above 20,- 000 bales. But the largest receipt of cotton for the northern interior is now over the Illinois Central Railroad. It is stated that forty one cars were loaded at Cairo with cotton, in a single day of last week, and 2,000 bales were sent over the whole line of the road during October, for the factories of Western New York. The record of transactions in cotton is not currently given at St. Louis or Cincinnafi, as it should be, and still more important is the existiug neg lect to note the direction shipments take from Memphis, which is the great cot ton market for the production of Ten nessee, and part of Arkansas. The shipments from Memphis for ihe week ending October 22d, are definitely giv en, however, and they stand at 7889 bales to New < Means to 4407 sent north ward by river, of which 1049 bales were sent to St. Louis, and 2758 to the Ohio river and Cincinnati. Whether there are other shipping ports from which c t ---ton goes northward we are not aware, nor whether the Kentucky railroads car ry it. Probably 150,000 bales will so reach the manufacturing establishment of this city and the country west and north of us, from the crop of 1859, sine* -U),- 000 bales <>f last gear’s crop cauie to Cincinnati! alone. The western com mercial interests will oblige us by mak- I ing note o; this new trade, and by push ing it with vigor. An Inccndiary Absented.—We were in formed by a reliable gentleman, just on the eve of going to press, tliat on Monday night last, in the viciuity of Social Circle, a person w ith a lighted match was discovered in the act of setting fire to a gin house. A gentle man tired his gun at ihe parly and instant ly killed a negro. When the gun was dis charged an individual was seen to run, who was overtaken and captured, and was sup posed to be the instigator, or real incendiary in question.— Atlanta Confederacy , Xov. 24. —The habitues of the Berlin opera are much excited about a theft of the diamonds of Miss Emily Frierl*erg, a prominent mem- i ber of the ballet. They are estimated at a value of #B,OtIO. She wore them during the performance on the evening previous to her , departure from Cologne, when she placed them in an iron box in her trnnk. On her i arrival in that eity she found, on opening the trunk, that the box with the uiauionds was gone. Jli*|*la< el ( oulidcuce. During the present week a trial took [dace in our Superior court in which the State was plaintiff and Joseph Callahan the de fendant. It appeared in evidence, at the i trial, that Callahan had been tampering with a negro in the employ of Mr. Pardue, and , had promised the negro if ho would run away from hin owner, that he (Callahan) would sell him three or four times, divide . the profits equally, and then set the negro ! free. The negro seemed to thank Callalian ! for his kind nets, and eucouraged him with the belief that he was all right, but he took care to promptly inform his owner and em- Eloyer of the advances and offers of Cal la au. The negro induced Callahan to be lieve that all the arrangements for leaving the city were completed, and ou the night of the first of September, both were to meet it Mr. Purdue's -table—each take a good mule, leave the city, and probublv travel rapidly, during that night, so as to prevent, or at least make it difficult to effect their capture. At the appointed time, Callahan and the negro were at tde stable. The ne gro told him that they were now ready to leave—that he would* bridle and saddle a pair of mules—and he wanted Mr. Calla han to renew his promise to him then, as to what he would do. ‘•I faithfully promise,” said Callahan, “that I will act honorably up to all my promises to you—will sell you three or four | times—divide the sales with you, and then j set you free.” The mules were then caught and saddled 1 —the stable door opened, and the negro and I Callahan led out their stoeds. It has often been said, and was never more truthfully exemplified than ou this oc casion, that “tlie course of true love never : runs smooth.” Callahan appeared devoted in his affi-ctions to the negro, while the dar kie was involving Callahan, step by step, in i inextricable trouble. I'l*on information given by the negro, a police force were secretly stationed in the stable, and overheard the promise made by Callahan to the negro. After the parties had left the stable with the inales, and while Callahan was in the art of mounting his mule, he was politely informed that his presence was immediately desired at the guard-house, to which place he was conduc ted by a police -quad, and was subx-quontlv lodged in the jail of this county. He had, in the terms of our laws, stolen this negro, inn-much as he appeared to exercise control over him, and was in the act of running away with him when he was arrested. The jury returned a verdict of guilty. This case may not afford encouragement to managers of the under-ground railroad, or to negro-.tealers generally, hut it is au im pressive lesson, as well as a high compliment to the faithfulness of our slave |*opulath>n. When Abolitionists read this reference to an affair which occurred in this city, they might do well to “make a note of it,” or they, like Callahan, may afterwards medi tate within the gloomy walls of a southern prison or penitentiary, on the troubles which result from misplaced confidence.— Ckmsti tutionalist. I>i*u(li of hi. (■. roiudcxlcr, i:*<|. The Nashville (Ten.( Union and Ameri can, of Saturday, Nov. 19th, comes to us draped in mourning for the death of G. G. Poindexter, E-q, one of the editors and proprietors, who was killed tlie day previous • by Mr. Allen A. Flail, one of the editors of the Nashville AV/ot. The Union and .1 m erican thus alludes to the sad event: Death of 0. G. Poindexter. —The sad du ty devolves upon us of announcing the death of our associate aid Iriend, G. G. Poindex ter. He was killed yesterday morning by Mr. Hail, editor of the Daily Xetct. Mr. Poindexter was a native of Virginia, and of a family, both on Lis father's and mother's side, (his mother wa9 a Gilmer,) eminent for patriotism, talent, and courage. He was born on .‘>oth November, 1829. He graduated at Dartmouth College, in New Hampshire, and the Law School of the Cum berland University, at Lebanon. In 185 G, he was the Democratic Elector for the Eighth District in this State. The late Hon. A. V. Brown, who knew him well, and ap preciated his many manly virtues, appoint ed him Chief Clerk of the Department, over which he presided in 185 b. This office he held only about one year, and resigned it, on solicitations of the publishers of this pa per, to become one of its editors and pro prietors. The engagements of his associates have been such during mo9t the lima of Mr. Poindexter's connection with the paper, as to throw most of the editorial labor on him. We may safely say, that no man in this country ever earned, in the same time, a more enviable reputation in this capacity than that which has been achieved by our late deeply lamented colleague. Asa man, he was as nearly faultless as humanity can become; lor the manly courage, which, careful of the rights of others, is yet fearless in tlie defence of the character of its [asses sor, will by no true man be imputed as n fault. Courteous in all his intercourse with others, he exacted the same courtesy to him - j self. Counterfeits.—A few weeks ago we men tioned the fact that a number of counterfeit bills on the Canal Bank of Selma for Mont gomery funds, by a stranger sdto was alter- j wards arrested at Macon, Ga. Tt seems that there are other counterfeiters of the Canal Bank notes. Some days ago, a man named A. E. Taylor, upon whose person #llO in counterfeit notes on the Canal Bank of Lou isiana, and #19.1 25 of good money were found, was arrested at Memphis, and the police of that city were on the track of some of his accomplices. It would be well to keep a lookout for such swindlers. We learn that the Teller ol Selma Bank has re covered the money out of which that institu tion was diddled by the chap arrested at Macon.— Selma Reporter , Xov. 22. Elopement. —The New York papers chro nicle the elopement of the proprietre-s of a fashionable hoarding house at Brooklyn Heights. She left the house of her confid ing lord at an early hour Saturday morning ostensibly for the purpose of going a shop ping, but in reality with a view cf effecting a union with a gay Lothario, with whom she was determined to link her future for , tune. Alter the twain had met in New York, according to previous agreement, ihey secured their passage on the City of Baltimore and sailed for Europe, having previously made al’ necessary arrangements.

Wink at Chaklestowk—„4r rtval of the Military—Cause of the Xeic Excitement — Quiet Restored , dr. Harper's Ferry, Sunday evening. — Gov. \Y ise arrived at half past 4 o’clock this afternoon, in a special train, with full four hundred volun teer soldiery, embracing nine com panies from Richmond and vicinity. Ho left about i' o’clock for Charles town, with four of the companies, and the remainder will follow in the morning. They have full camp equip* age with them, and it is his intention to form a military encampment at Charlestown, until after the execu tion. Arrangements have been made to obtain supplies of provis ions for them from Baltimore. The excitement on Saturday mor ning was caused first by the receipt of a rumor that a desperate fight was going on in Clarke county, be tween a party of strangers and citi z.ens ; and the Alexandria Artillery, which was then at Winchester, was despatched with a number of armed volunteers to the seat of the rumor ed disturbances. Whilst this excite ment was at its height, and before the report was discovered to be with out foundation, a gentleman named Smith Crane arrived here from lJel air, near Wheeling, where he report ed a number of strange nten to be congregating, between two of whom he accidentally overheard a conver sation, the purport of which was that a body of five hundred men were to a train of ears at that place, rush through to Harper’s Ferry, and attempt the rescue of Brown and his companions. He immediately set out for Harper’s Ferry, to apprise the inhabitants of what lie had over heard. (In reaching Charlestown he re ported to Col. Davis, who immedi ately telegraphed to Gov. Wise for five hundred troops. The troops have arrived. Governor Wise has gone to Charlestown, ar.d all isagain quiet and will doubtless remain so.

A negro woman who tasted of the tea. is also very sick. The nurse con fessed the atrocious deed, and the object of it, to get rid of her little charge. Mr. Har ris hail procured tlie arsenic to poison rats, and a cautionary remark from him in laying it aside, suggested the infernal idea to the nurse. Sale of West End Lots. —Gabriel B.

The Wanderer's Trial—An Over Zealous Yankee — Circumstantial Evidence—Xot Guilty — Persecution —A Yankee Turning Prosecuting Attorney—His Charge to the Jury—Begging for a Verdict, and Prom ising to Intercede for Pardon. Savannah, Nor. 28, 1859. My Dear Doctor :—l have been sojourn ing, for a couple of weeks past, in the beau tiful city of Oglethorpe, and have availed myself of the occasion to attend the trial of Brown, Rajesta and Aouira, charged with the crime of piracy, in having been a part of the crew of the Wanderer, and assisted in the importation and landing of Africans. As some things have transpired which the [tapers here have not, for reasons best known to themselves, recorded, I havo thought it projtcr to give jour readers an idea of how justice is administered in a U. S. Court. It will be remembered tliat the three men above mentioned, we arrested on suspicion, more than a yeur ago. It seems that they were quite strangers who had occasion to sojourn, for a short period, at the city hotel, and finding it necessary to replenish their wardrobe, they stepped into the clotlirag store of a certain spindle faced yalike*, here, of decided Northern proclivities, who after the manner of hi* section became inquintivo, and because his customers happened to wear clothing which had evidently “seen some aervice,” and because the Re pull iron had recently published an articleabout the land ing of tha Wanderer's cargo : and because he ascertained by asking impertinent ques tions, that one of them knew a certain slave trader named Jack Miller, this Solomon of the shears imagined, or at ha termed it on the stand, suspected that they were of the Wanderer's crew ; straightway lie gives in formation to the District Attorney, who had them arrested and thrown into prison. , An examination was held before the U. i. Commissioner and the men remanded for irial, at the May term of the U. S. Cir cuit Court, his honor Judge Wayne, not only continued their case, to the Novomber term, because ('apt. Corrie was included in the indictment and had not been arrested, but refused to allow them to be bailed, thus dooming them to spend a long, hot und perhaps unhealthy summer, in the jail of this county, which is any thing but a pal ace. Fortunately the city was unusually healthy, and they escaj*ad with their lives, though oLe of their number, Aucika, has contracted a consumption, which will no doubt carry Dim oft’, in a short time ! But “the longest day must have an end,” the year finally rolled around and their case came up for trial. 1 attended at the court room every day, and watched the pro ceedings with the same deep interest which seemed to pervade the entire community. Your readers are already aware of the re sult of the trial, and as the papers here have published full reports of the testimony, it is unnecessary for me to do mere than allude ta it in general terms. The evidence was entirely circumstantial, very strongly circumstantial, I mutt admit—and which 1 believe that nine tenths of the people hero, believe that those three men were part of the Wanderer'a crew, still there was room for doubt, and I don’t believe that any twelve Southerner*, or men who ought to be allowed to remain in the South, could be found in Savannah, who would have brought in a verdict of guilty. The .Jury were out about hours, one man persisting in his determination to convict, but he fi nally came to his senses, and a verdict “not guilty” was rendered. I assure you, I nev er saw so many perfectly delighted men in my life, as were here when the result was made known. There was an intense excite ment throughout the city, which pervaded all classes, many persons having remained up the best part of Tuesday night, in the hope of getting the verdict, and when it was rendered on Wednesday, it took all the Marshals aud their deputies to prevent a popular demonstration in the court room. One would have thought, after such a clear expression of public opinion in favor of the prisoners, and ao triumphant a vin dication from the charges brought against them, that the government would have given their further persecution over as a bad job. On the contrary they were, at once sent buck to jail, to await trial on two other indictments. What the exact na ture of these two additional indictments is, I have not been able to learn, but believe they are fur holding and abutting the hold ing of African negroes, contrary to the stat ute, Ac. This charge was clearly contained in the first indictment, and this additional attempt of the government and its officials, to punish these men for the commission ot no crime, is looked upon by almost the en tire community of Savannah, as a wicked and malignant persecution. It has been plainly enough perceptible to every spectator throughout these trials, that the Circuit Judge came here fully impressed with the idea that the dignity of the United States had been insulted, and that it was his duty as the representative of the Govern ment, to inflict summary punishment upon these men, na a satisfaction of the otfended dignity aforesaid, lie has not failed to in sult the prisoners, and their friends, w hen ever opportunity bus presented itself; he has attempted to browbeat and intimidate witnesses, when it appeared to him that they tavored the prisoners ; lie lias allowed the prosecution to introduce evidence so clearly irrelevant that the merest tyro of the law in ’ tho court room, was surprised at the pro ceeding ; lie has favored the prosecution throughout, and to crown it all, his charge to the Jury at the close of the trial, was a move perfect argument against the prison ! ors than the effort of Mr. 11. R. Jackson although that gentleman fell fainting into his chair, at tho close of four and a half hours speech. I wish I had the room to give your rend ers an abstractor this charge to the jury.— It would make them open their eyes, but it would, at the same time, give them some idea of how justice is administered in a gov ernment court. After debating, at some length, on the enormity of the offence, and entering into a full history of the law against the slave trade, Ac., iu the course of which, he claimed that Congress hud an indisputa ble right to regulate the trade in negroes, as in every thing else, and to declare the bringing of Africans into this country to be piracy, and deserving of the punishment of death—his honor had the entire testimony rend to the jury, as taken down by Judge Nicol. “The court” then proceeded to sum up the ‘evidence, and to present its strong points, declaring it to he a complete chain, not wanting a single link. He stated to the jury that it was not his province to speak of the conclusiveness of the evidence in its entreaty, but he did take it up and apply it to the several counts in the indict ment, and declared it to be conclusive on each one of them. For instance, it was necessary to prove, Ist. That the Wanderer was ow ned by an American citizen. This he declared to he proved beyond the p tsaibiti ty of doubt by the evidence of certain Char leston w itnesses. 2nd. That she went to the coast of Africa, and returned witli a cargo of negroes, which were landed on tho coast |of Georgia. This, he declared, was plainly proven by the evidence of Mr. Chjcever, who calculated her course to Africa and back, and by Messrs. H.vkkis, Clibb, ami others, who saw the negroes on board. The third, and lust count —that the prisoners were of her crew or ship’s company, which, he gave as his opinion, was proved conclu sively by the evidence of various witnesses. Now, my dear sir, can you tell me the dif ference between giving a jury an opinion of the conclusiveness ot evidence, as a whole, and giving one as to the cooclusiveness of three separate counts, which, taken togeth er, make up the whole ? But did you ever before hear of a Judge on the bench telling a jury that the evidence before them was sufficient to condemn tho prisoners at the bar? The Judge even went further, he beyye.d for a verdict. He told tho jury that they were sworn to bring in this verdict ac cording to the evidence. From his charge it was plain that he considered the evidence conclusive, therefore it was their duty to convict. Now what, think you,did he fur ther? He told them they must not allow any feeling in favor of the prisoners to influ ence them, hut that if they brought in a verdict of Guilty, lie and li’s brother asso ciates would join in a petition to the Presi dent for pardon, and that such a petition had never yet been disregarded! Would you have believed it? A circuit Judge of the United States begging for a verdict agaii.st men whom he declares to he guilty of ft crime deserving of death, and then promising if they were found guilty that he would beg the President of the United Stales to pardon them! Credite posteri ! But this letter has already grown too long, and I must close. 1 have other matters to speak of, nnd will take occasion to do so in a subsequent letter. lam anxsous that the southern public shall knowjust how this matter has been conducted, and with your permission, will give them some additional points in another letter.

The Legislature of Texas has ordered the I troops to arrest Cortinas’ band. The reports from Brownsville caused intense excitement throughout Texas. The small town of Gon zales raised 200 men in two days. Cortinas has returned Campbell, the depu ty Sheriff, to Brownsville, unharmed, against the wishes of his men. Gen. Houston recommends the Legisla ture to authorize the rising of a regiment of mounted men to protect the frontier from the attacks of the Indians. l oluntccr Tlilitnry Convention. A large and respectable number of officers and privates, belonging to the different Vol unteer Companies of the State, met in this city on yesterday, and adopted a resolution, requesting the Legislature to make an ap propriation so as meet the wants of the Volunteer Companies now organized, and those to be organized, hut waiting aid from the State, so as to supply them with arms. A resolution also was passed, requesting the State to erect an armory for the manufac ture of small arms and artillery j also, a res olution recommending the Military Institute at Marietta, to the fostering care ol the State. As to the jersonnel of the Convention, we have never seen a more intelligent looking body of men in Convention. The meeting was presiiled over by Capt. John W. An derson, of SAvannal;, and Lieut. llanleitek, of Atlanta, and Private Robert Grant, of Savannah, as Secreta ies. Col. Wii. S. Rockwell, Chairman of the Committee of ten, reported Resolutions embracing the a bove objects, which were unanimously ad opted. Also, a resolution was passed requesting the Legislature to apj>oint a committee to prepare a military code for the State, and report at the next session. The Convention was addressed by Gov. Brown, who heartily entered into allot its proceedings, and stated to the Convention that the State was able to appropriate $150,- 000 for purchase of arms, &c., without in creasing the present rate of tax.
