Moore of Alabama has approved the bill passed by the Legislature im posing a tax of SSOO a day on Spiritual Manifestations. Col. Luther J. Glenn, recently nomina ted for re-election to the Mayoralty of Atlanta, has declined the honor tendered. A son of the Hon. John Letcher, of Virginia, died at Lexington, in that State, on the 4th, from lockjaw, superinduced by a splinter wound in the band. Margaret Fox, “ex-spiritualist,” writes to the New York Herald denying that she is now in any way associated with medi ums or spiritualists, and intimates that the whole thing is a humbug.

The powers invited to the proposed European Congress are all those that were parties to the treaty of 1815. It will convone in Paris, early in January. —i ♦ Reducing of Expenditures. The Secretary of the Treasury esti mates the expenditures of the United States Government for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1861, at $66,714,928. This is a reduction of $6,313,049, com pared with the estimates of last year. Montgomery Confederation. The last issue of this paper contains the valedictory of W. R. R. Wyatt, Esq., who has from its inception been associa ted with Col. Seibles in the editorial de partment. Mr. Wyatt’s place is supplied by Edwin A. Banks.

Road have elected Chief and Assistant Engineers, with instructions to proceed immediately to finish the location, pre paratory to letting out the contract for grading, which they intend to do about the first of January. Adjournment of Legislatures. The “assembled wisdom” of Georgia adjourned sine die Friday evening. In our next impression we will publish the most important general and local Acts passed and approved by the Governor. The Alabama Legislature adjourned Saturday morning, to meet again the 9th ofJanuary. Who’s Afraid! * The Educational Journal suggests to the citizens of Forsyth the propriety of organizing a Vigilance Committee for the Christmas holidays. Nobody’s afraid of anything, but nothing would be lost if every community would observe the same caution. + Hard to Beat. The Chattanooga Advertiser, says a gentleman of that city killed three pigs on the 7th inst., pigged 12th January, and which were not quite eleven months old, that weighed 205—224 and 225 lbs. nett—making an average nett growth of 11 oz. and a fraction for each day from littering to killing time. He had another hog littered March, 1857, that weighed 673 lbs. nett. Hon- J. L. M. Curry. This distinguished member of Congress j from Alabama, who has delivered a speech j in the House of Representatives, replete : with sound doctrine, is a native of Lincoln county, Georgia. His father removed to j Talladega oounty, Ala,, where the son , still resides, but tho latter returned to I Franklin College, where he graduated in 1843. He served three terms in the Ala- > bama Legislature, and was elected to i Congress first in 1857. The “Solid Men’’ of Memphis, Tho Avalanche of Thursday publishes a list of persons, the value of whose pro perty in the city is assessed at and above $20,000. It appears that three own pro perty to the amount of over half a mil lion ; twelve over $100,000; fifteen over $75,000, and forty-two over $50,000 and upwards. Many of those enumerated own twice as much property outside of the corporate limits of the dty. Another Gin House Burned. The Americus News of Thursday, says “the gin house of Wm. B. Marshall, of Schley county, was consumed on Satur day night last, with twelve bales of cot ton. It was set on fire after midnight, certainly by an incendiary, as no work bad been done about the gin for several days previous.” Serious Accident, The Lawrenceville (Ga.,) News of Thursday learns that a little son of Mr Henry Kirby was caught in the cotton gin at the Factory in this* place on yes terday, and seriously injured. His leg is horribly torn, though amputation will not be necessary. The Savannah Express of Saturday says there are now due at that port sev eral vessels heavily laden with Rail Road iron. The Sentiment for the South, 1 In the debate on Federal Relations in ! the Georgia Legislature Friday, Mr. Fan nin of Morgan declared it was theduty of 1 Southern Representatives in CoDgress to unite iu the election of Speaker. Mr. Williams of Muscogee said that, Demo crat as.he was, he would vote for any American for Speaker rather than see a Black Republican elected. This is the spirit 4hat should inspire not only every Representative of the South in Congress, but every one of her sons whether adopt ed, or “native and to the manner born.” Ihe line of demarcation between parties in Congress is the slavery question and upon this our enemies are united, and march to tho conflict in serried column. On the other hand we behold the South divided upon three several candidates, and demoralized by the division. The triumphs of mere party compared to the success and preservation of Southern rights are contemptible, and the Repre sentative who subordinates the one to the other at this crisis, should be held to a severe accountability at the stern tribu nal of public justice. True, the combin ed strength of the Lecompton Democrats and Southern Americans would not be sufficient to effect a choice for Speaker, but it would present the long desired and sublime spectacle of a united South. This effected, the South would be satisfied though her combined force in Congress formed only a moiety of the strength of the Black Republicans. We say if the Southern Americans will not merge with the Democrats and cast their votes for Bocock, the Democrats should determine so far as they are concerned that the re sponsibility of a divided South should not rest upon them. They should not hesi tate to coalesce with the Southern Amer icans and thus concentrate the strength of the South on some Southern man. It would be preferable to the elevation of a Black Republican to the Speaker’s Chair. The South may succeed in affecting an organization by this course, but never, under existing circumstances. In the sectional contest raging, our Representa tives should obliterate and ignore party lines and affinities ; if they will not prof it by their example a common danger and fortune should teach them to bury all minor points of difference and pres ent an undivided front to their adversa ries. Hogs for tke South. The Chattanooga Advertiser, of Thurs day, says hog3 in fair sized droves, are daily arriving at that point, for Southern shipment; buyers are giving 5 cts. gross and several lots have exchanged hands. Messrs. Chandler & McCamey have killed for themselves and private parties, up to this time, about 2,500. These gentlemen, in consequence of the high ruling rates of hogs, will not pack as largely as they ’ have in previous years. They will p”ob ably exceed five or six thousand. From an inspection of the W. and A. Rail Road books at the Chattanooga depot, we find that the numbers shipped from this point up to Dec. Ist, is 10,860 against 6,920 of last year. In the month of De cember, 1858, however, there were shipped 8,060 —a heavy transaction.— Hogs have come forward earlier this year than last, owing in a measure to the de mand for money and the scarcity of Corn beyond the vallies. We dare venture the opinion that the number shipped this year will not be so great as that of last season, and then the hogs shipped this year will not average near as heavy as they did last season. Homicide. The Ilayncville Chronicle of Thursday learns from a gentleman who has just re turned from a visit to Butler, that a diffi culty occurred near Greenville, on Fri day last, between two brothers-in-law, Smith and Davenport, in which the latter was killed. They are both men of wealth, and the dispute is said to have originated about property. The Atlanta Intelligencer learns that a man named Martin Warren, aged about 30 years, was instantly killed by a fall from bis horse, on Tuesday evening last, near Conyer’s, in Newton county. He was a resident of Newton county, and leaves a wife behind him. Gann Retaken. The Marietta Advocate of Friday says : Gann who was under sentence of death for the murder of Collins, and escaped from the Cobb county jail a short time since, was retaken in Madison county and brought back last week. Brown’s Friends in New York. “Pink,” the New York correspondent of the Charleston Courier, says the sym pathizers with Brown in that city are preparing for a grand demonstration.— Addresses will be delivered by Ra+ph W. Emerson, Dr. Cheever, and Wendell Philips. ♦ Homicide. A man named Medcalf was shot by another named Sturkie, in Calhoun coun ty, Ala., and died in fifteen minutes. Sturkie was arrested, went before a Magistrate, and was released on the gtound that he did not kill the man he shot at. A Bad Egg—Singular Incident. On Saturday morning last a gentleman J in her Majesty’s service, residing in < Leith, sat down to breakfast, and was in ’ the act of breaking an egg, when, much to his consternation, it gave a loud re port, started up to the ceiling, and in an instant was dashed to pieces at his feet. The gentleman’s face was slightly I touched by the egg iu its ascent. This singular circumstance is accounted for by the decomposition of the egg, and the foul air it contained. Caledonian Aler cury. ♦ Almost a Tragedy. Yesterday afternoon, at the Artesian basin, a man, whose name we did not learn, either intentionally or accidentally fired a pistol, upon which policeman Hor ton attempted to arrest him. Iu the scuffle, the man attempted to shoot the officer, and succeeded in getting a bullet through his coat, but without inflicting any bodily injury. The individual was taken to the Guard House, and will be apt to be made to suffer “some” before be gets out of the scrape.— Montgomery Con federation, 1 6th. Arrival of Capt. Farnham. United States Deputy Marshals O’Keefe and Peyton, of New York, arrived in the city this morning, having in custody J. Egbert Farnham, who is charged with j being connected with the Wanderer, as her Captain. He was placed in the Chat ham county jail, where be%ill probably remain until the next term of the United States Circuit Court. —Savannah Express, 15 th instant. An Abolitionist Betrayed by Slaves, The Raleigh (N. C.) Register has the following item : “We learn from a friend that a man who says his name is John D. Williams has been arrested and confined in Hills borough jail, on a charge of tampering with slaves. He is about 25 years of age, and is travelling as a book-agent. He was twice betrayed by slaves, to whom lie communicated bis Abolition senti ments. He was still in jail on the 3d. We would not be surprised to hear that he has been lynched. He no doubt will be, if h? should not leave as soon as he is turned out of jail.” I Votes on tbe Balloting for Speaker. A recapitulation of the votes cast for Speaker in Congress showed that those cast for tbe Black Republican candidate have been increased by one vote (Sher man’s) making 111. Mr. Bocock still receives 83, voting himself for Mr. Barksdale of Mississippi. Mr. Pughvotes for McQueen of South Carolina. Twenty of the South Americans including Mr. Briggs of New Y'ork vote for Mr. Boteler of Virginia; three of them viz: Harde man of Georgia', Gilmer of N. C., and Moore of Ivy., scattered their votes.— There are eight Anti-Lecompton Demo crats who scattered their’s. Stallworth of | Alabama, Adams and Brown of Kentucky are absent. The combined Southern vote is 113, which wants three of the number necessary so a choice. Should the Rep resentatives from the South unite, they would be powerless to terminate the con test unless a few Anti-Lecompton Demo cratswere secured, or Messrs. Stallworth, Adams and Brown of Kentucky, one j South American and two Administration 1 Democrafs were present. | The Forrest Divorce Case—Filial Report of the Referee. A. C. Bradley, the referee in the For rest divorce case, has made his final re port to tbe Supreme Court of the city of New York. The folio wing is the material part: Catherine N. Forrest, vs. Edwin For rest. To the Superior Court:—The sub scriber, the referee named in the judg ment of the Court in this case, the 24th day of July, 1856, respectfully reports : I That he has been attended by tbe res pective parties, and heard their proofs on the matter referred to him in the said judgment; that having regard to the cir cumstances of the parties respectively, the sum of four thousand dollars per annum would be a suitable allowance to the plaintiff for her support ; that the same should be payable from the 19th day of November, 1850, the day when this suit was commenced, quarterly, on the first days of February, May, August and November, iu each year; that so much thereof as shall have fallen due at the time of the decision of the Court on hearing of this cause on this report, to be paid within thirty days thereafter, and the residue as it becomes due, to the United States Trust Company of the City of New York, for the plaintiff’s use. Montgomery and Union Springs Rail Road. The Union Springs Gazette of Thurs day speaking of the above Road says : The Corps of Engineers are now loca ting the line, and the hands will be placed on the work as soon as practicable.— When completed, we have every assu i ranee of its durability, as all the material 1 will be of the best quality. The Engi neers have succeeded in getting an air line, with the exception of a single curve, which will enable them to make good time, a very important item tkese.days. The great necessity of the road is very | severely felt at this particular time, as j the Mobile & Girard Road has recently j met with a succession of reverses which ’ has rendered it inadequate to the busi : ness of the Road. Although we feel sat isfied that Major Howard, the President of the Road, is exerting himself to the utmost, we would respectfully suggest the propriety of purchasing anew En gine, in order to obviate the great incon venience Planters and others are subject ed to in the delay of shipments. We have recently heard of Cotton being haul ed from this Depot to Montgomery aud Eufaula, which should not and would not be, if the facilities for transportat ion over this road were sufficient. We sincerely hope to see this matter reconciled. Letter from Charlestown. Charlestown, Va., Dec. 1859. The prisoners are in much the same condition as in my late report. Last night Cook was busily engaged in writing, and seemed little inclined for conversa tion. Coppic was rather more talkative thati usual, and freely spoke of his boy hood’s home—of his happy school-boy days—his early and elysian dreams—his young heart’s hopes and dreams. He said he never would have been here had he not been led by his feelings of affec tion to follow the fortunes of his brother. He represents his brother, Barcley Cop pic, as he expresses it, a weakly young man, and unable to undergo the expos ures of such a rash campaign. That he followed with a brother’s instinct “to shield and save his younger brother.” B. Coppic, with Owen Brown, Francis J. Merriam and Charles P. Tidd are still at large, with a reward upon their heads. Before they bade each other good night, Coppic said to Cook, ‘•John, our time is drawing short!” Cook cheerily replied, “Why, Ed.! we’ve got another week.” His tone was lively and his apparent cool ness great, though I shall not be sur prised to find him the first to give away at the fatal hour.

Hr, Ten Broeck’s Movements on the English Turf. We see by the latest files of the Eng lish calendar, that Mr. Ten Broeck has been making several additions to his string of foreign horses, and that he in- j tends to press a brisk campaign upon the English turf next year. For the New market Craven meeting, which comes on in the spring, he has entered Optimist, Maggiore, (late Pretty by Night,) May flower in a sweepstakes of 50 sovereigns. He has entered Cbiffaniere, and Even hand in the Hopeful Stakes for two year olds, at the Newmarket October meet ings. He has entered Maggiore in the Select Stakes of 50 sovereigns at the Newmarket 2d October. He has entered Chiffouiere in the Malcomb Stakes at the Goodwood, for two year olds, in the two and one thousand guineas’ stakes for 1861 respectively. We have not noticed the names of Evenhand and Chiffoniere among Mr. Ten Broeck’s horses before, and have a notion that one of them is a Lexington two years old, which went over with Starke last spring. A mail or two will tell.— Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times. ♦ Killed by tbe Cars. Mr. John W. Drane, of Columbia coun ty, in attempting to get off the cars at Saw Dust, on the Georgia Railroad, on Thursday evening last> was instantly killed. His head was severed from his body, and he was otherwise shockingly mutilated. Mr. D. was about thirty-eight years of age, and resided near Dearing, in Colum bia county, whence he had gone on busi ness to Saw Dust depot, and in stepping from the cars before the train had stop ped, he met with this fatal accident.— Aug. Constitutionalist, \lth. Tbe citizens of Prattville Alabama, held a meeting recently aud ordered a man named Cleveland to leave. Cause abo lition sentiments. Tbe. Latest Agon y. | A Virginia lady, who resides not a thousand miles from the town of F., whilst on a recent visit to some friends I residing in the city of New York, made j quite anew, novel, and (to her)-disas | trous discovery: ‘ * ‘ ’ It seems that the-yoemg-lady-i-n ques j lion, mistook a gass burner iu her room j for a bonnet rack and accordingly placed her bonnet thereon. In her absence the servant visited her room for‘the purpose 1 of lighting up tbe gas for the night, and thinking that the bonnet was nothing more nor less than tbe usual shade upon the burner—not observing very closely— lighted the gas and left the room. In a short time thereafter the young lady re turned to her room in order to gether bonnet and some other paraphernalia, but lo ! and behold ! she found that in her absence her beautiful “love of a bonnet,” had been converted into a pile of white ashes—that it had burned up ! The Merchants of Charleston. In tbe Charleston papers we And a card signed by near sixty different mer cantile firms of that city, addressed to the merchants of the South and South west, representing their facilities for sup plying goods on terms as favorable as to i price and credit as aoycity in the Union. Their importations from abroad are very large, and their facilities for obtaining goods from Europe are unsurpassed by any. They invite merchants of the South, who trade with New York, to give Charles ton a trial, aud if that city does not come up to its professions, they will be sub jected to little inconvenience as the op portunities for going farther are offered ; every few hours. New Inventions for Cotton Planters It is generally known that Mr. George G. Henry, of Mobile, has patented ati in vention for spinning up cotton on planta j tions. Since then he has obtained two additional patents, one of which is for an improvement in the treatment of seed cottoD, by which Ire obtains oil, oil cake and manure, the other is an improvement in the art of saving cotton, by which it can be picked not only while icet, but in continuously wet weather. Georgia and Alabama Ball Roads. The following bills have passed the A1 abama Legislature : To authorise the Georgia Western Rail Road Company to continue their Road into Calhoun -(formerly Benton) county, in that State. To incorporate the Columbus and La fayette Rail Road Company. To revive and amend an act to incor porate the West Point (Ga ) and Tennes see River Rail Road Company. Disturbances in Philadelphia—Riot ous Anti-Slavery Demonstrations. Philadelphia, December 15.—An anti slavery fair was opened in this city to day at Concert Hall, and an anti-slavery meeting is also being held at the Assem bly Buildings. The contractors of the fair having sus pended a large flag across the street in front of the hull, with incendiary and ex citing inscriptions upon it, the Mayor of the city requested them to remove it, which they refused to do. The Sheriff j thereupon ordered the fair closed before j 3 o’clock p. m., and the offensive flag was removed. The prompt and energetic measures of the authorities caused intense excitement among tbe Black Republicans and Aboli tionists. A meeting of the anti-slavery society was immediately called, to take counsel as to what course they should pursue. They finally resolved, amid great ex citement, to proceed in a body to the hall for the purpose, as they declared, of pro tecting their property. Intense excitement prevails throughout the city and there is every prospect of a serious riot to-night, unless the authori ties interpose. G. W. Curtis lectures to night upon the slavery question. A conservative meeting has been called outside to adopt measures to prevent the dissemination of principles and senti ments intended to arouse intense animos ity and to check hireling incendiaries from making inflammatory addresses. The Mayor has taken every precaution to prevent disturbances. SECOND DISPATCH. Philadelphia True to the Union. Philadelphia, December 15, 9 p. m The anti slavery demonstrations to-night proved a miserable failure. The audi ence assembled to hear Curtis did not at any time exceed 200, while the conserva tive meeting outside numbered 10,000. The Union meeting was addressed by John D. Miles, Richard Peters and other gentlemen of the highest standing in our copjm'inity, who advocated sound Union sentiments, and proved that Philadelphia was true to the Union. The mob began to throw stones at the. windows of the Curlis meeting, but the demonstation was promptly suppressed, and several of the rioters were arrested. The Mayor and Sheriff were hissed by some of the Curtis audience, but the bis sers were expelled by the police, and order was preserved during the delivery of the lecture. The excitement now appears to be sub siding. i ______ Estimate* of the Cotton Crop. Neill Brothers’ circular for Liverpool by the Europa estimates the cotton crop at 4.300,000, the same as by last steamer. Wright’s circular says that these high figures are unwarranted. Cincinnati Market. Cincinnati, Dec. 14.—The money, mar ket, to-day, closed decidedly more strin gent. Hogs are quoted at $5 75 to $6 25 per head. Sales to-day amount to 5,000 head. The receipts of tbe season amount to 247,000 head, against 278,500 head, during the same time last year. Western mess pork is quoted at sl6. Lard, in barrels, is quoted at 10c. Allen A Hall’s Acquittal. Nashville, Dec. 14. — Tbe grand jury of this place have failed to find a true bill against Allen A. Hall, who was charge i with the killing of G. G. Poin dexter, of this city. How Colds Should he Treated. Dr. Hall’s Journal of Health says that there are three things which every man should do the moment he is satisfied that he has taken cold: Ist, eat nothing; 2d, go to bed and cover up warm, in a warm room; 3d, drink as much cold water as he can or as he wants, or as much heyb tea as he can ; and thus using himself, in three cases out of four, the subject will be cured in thirty-six hours. On the con trary, if he allows his cold to go two days tmmolesied, he can swallow noth ing that will affect it in the least; and the cold, with such a start, will run its course of about a fortnight, and whatever is swallowed then by way of physic, is a useless hindrance. It is a mischievous though somewhat popular fancy, “ feed a cold and starve a fever.” Feeding a cold is feeding a fever; a cold always brings on fever, and never begins to get well until the fever subsides, and every mouthful swallowed is so much fuel to sustain-the fires of fever. It is indeed fortunate that as soon as the cold is fair ly seated nature allows no appetite, otherwise the most common colds may be followed by very serious results, and unless upon a very sturdy constitution would almost prove fatal. ♦ r “Gwine Back to de Ole Plantation.” The steamer Cicile is advertised to leave Charleston Thursday next, for Wil m mington &c., the object of the trip being to convey the negroes employed on the Charleston and Savannah Railroad to their homes in North Carolina and Vir ginia, where they will enjoy the Christ mas holidays with their families and friends’ We wish them a happy time “the old (and young) folks at home.”— Sav. Republican. Death. “ Let us be thankful for death. This* may appear to some unreflective persons an invitation so preposterous as to excite their risibility. Thankful for death! yes, indeed; what would becofltie of the I world but for death ? How sood 1 be assimilated to hell! What a’ restraint j on the wicked is th§ fear of it :J jHqw much greater enormities they would prac- j tice without it! And in the case of those whom fear djes not “restrain, we are comforted by the reflection that it will 4 soon rid us of them. Let us be honest without making any mawkish preten sious. I, for one, frankly acknowledge that my sorrow for the wrongs perpetra ted by certain princes and priests is soothed by the anticipation of death soon delivering the world of the burden of ‘ their villainy. Ho! miscreants! death, j inevitable death, is on your track ! flow the thought of it comforts me about you! It is the Lord’s consolation, and 1 will not shut my heart against it: ‘Fret not thyself because of evil-doers ; neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity; for they shall soou be cut down as the grass, and wither as the green herb.’ At the same time, then, brethren, that we are ready to bear death a grudge when he bereaves us of our friends, let us be equitable and ac knowledge his kindness when he destroys our foes. Agaiu, what would become of the Church without death ? Is he not the Church’s most eloquent advocate ? Who would enter it were it not death who ad vises them to seek a refuge tbore ? And who would rernaiu in it but for death's persuasions! “ Finally, is not death a messenger of mercy, for whom the wearied saint will wait and long with ardent desire that he may deliver him from pain and sorrow, and set his spirit at liberty for flying away and entering into the heavenly seat? The sin of the world being first considered—as much as death is its pen alty, so much is it a blessing in prevent ing the evil consequences of sin rising to such a height ns would have mnde life on earth unendurable. Even the antedilu vian duration of life has produced the frightful result to such an extent that it was necessary to change the system and shorten the term. Three score years and ten form a period long enough either for sinD'mg or suffering. And it is long j enough also for an active man doing so i much good work as wil! qualify kirn for the highest honors of the heavenly kiug dom.”—Discourses by (he Rev. W. Ander son. Splendid Auroral Display off Cape Horn—Tire Southern Eights Seen from the “Southern Cfoss.” The ship Southern Cross arrived at San Francisco on the 22d of October from Boston. The Southern Cross, under Capt. Howe, left Boston on the 10th of June, making the passage in 134 days. She passed the Straits of Le Maire, August the 10th, be ing sixty days to Cape Horn. Then she of course got the wind in her teeth, and being reduced to her small canvass, the stout ship battled the elements for twenty three days off the Cape, the great er part of the time in heavy gales of wind frequent rain, hail and snow squat.s. On the night of the 2d September, du ring a tremendous gale, a wonderful phe nomena manifested itself. The rare spectacle of an aurora australis, or Southern lights, was witnessed. It com menced about 14 o’clock in the morning and increased in splendor until towards daylight when it gradually faded before the light of day. Our informant states that the whole heavens were of a deep red, which color was reflected in the ocean, upon which a fearfnl sea was run ning. These were surm< unted by combs, not of tho usual white, but almost blood red. Some of the crew were much frightened. Once during the night a tremendous hail and snow squall hustled upon the ship. Through the whole of this the flames assumed the same roseate hue, and when a spray flew over the ship it fell to leeward in ruddy showers. Be tween the squalls in the clear places in the sky, the mysterious lights were seen shooting up in spiral streaks nearly to the zenith—now flasLing out in the in tense darkness with meteoric brilliancy, looming up against the horizon as with the blaze of some terrible conflagration, so that the glare was reflected upon the sails. Capt. Howe and his officers say that they have never witnessed anything equalling this display for magnificence. During the gaie, several times at night brilliant eomosants, or balls of electric fire, appeared flickering at the mast-heads, yard-arms and other salient points. Report of the Rail Road Engineer. The Tallapoosa Times has been favor ed by President Slaughter, with a peru sal of a letter from the Engineer, which shows that the cost of the Opelika and Talladega Rail Road will fall much below the average cost of roads. Indeed we are assured that, for much of the distance, nature seems to have contemplated the enterprise, by the nice adaptation of the surface of the earth, to the bed of a road. We give below the estimated cost, as re ported by the Engineer, and trust that the friends of the enterprise will take fresh courage, and soon give us the shrill whistle of the Iron horse, to awaken the energies of our people. Av’ge cost of grading per mile, $5,563,00 Bridging, 247,00 Tallapoosa River Bridge', 18,500,00 Culverts, 426,00 Length of road about 82 miles, Total cost of road Bed, ab0ut,536,600,00 Atlanta Rolling Mill. Editor Albany Patriot: Supposing that your readers will be interested, I give you some of the facts which I learned from Messrs. Blake, Scofield & Markham, proprietors of this new branch of indus try. Their business is the re-rolling of worn-out rail road iron. Capital invested $125,000. They employ 130 hands, and work night and day. They burn 32 tons of coal per day, costing $5 per tou. They roll 30 tons of iron per day, which pays S3O per ton. They pay Mark A. Cooper for new iron for working with old rails, about $2,500 per month. They pay hands every two weeks from SI,BOO to $2,500. The power used is two engines, one of 100 horse power, and one of 24 horse power. Traveler. A Rati Road .Luxury.

Charlestown, Va„ Dec. 15.—The town is rapidly filling up with strangers to witness the approaching execution. The system of excluding citizens adopted on the occasion of Capt. Brown’s execu tion is not to be repeated. Gov. Willard, of Ind., accompanied by Mrs Crowley, of New York, the sister of Cook, and the Hon. D. 11. Voorhees, Attorney-General of Indiana, arrived here yesterday and visited Cook. The interview w'th his sister was most affecting. Later in the day, Dr. Staunton and his wife, of Indi ana, and Miss Hughes arrived. Mrs. Staunton is a sister of Cook, and Miss Hughes a cousin. They also visited the prisoner, presenting a scene of grief and anguish scarcely to be described. They all promised to see him again, but through the advice of Gov. Willard, each wrote him a few farewell lines and all the ladies have left for their homes, the male rela tives designing to remain with him to the last. Arrangements have been made to have the body of Cook taken to New York for interment. Some of Coppic’s relations are expect ed to arrive to-day.‘ His body will be sent to his mother, at Springdale, lowa.- The bodies of Greene and Copeland, it is thought, will not be claimed, and will be decently interred near the gal lows. The prisoners this morning were cheer ful, and making religious preparations for death. Cook was much cast down after parting with his sister, but is now calm and collected, awaiting his doom. The hotels and private, houses are all crowded. A strict surveillance is kept on strangers, though those who come from curiosity and are well vouched for on the question of our peculiar institutions, are allowed to remain. Three gentlemen, friends of Coppie, visited him yesterday. He ‘lived with them in Ohio during his boyhood, and they speak of him as having been a quiet and inoffensive youth. They will remain with him until after the execution, and take his body to his mother. Gov. Willard’s interview with Cook last evening for the purpose of delivering a message to the prisoner from his sister, Mrs. Willard, was very affecting. Gov Willard is much attached to Cook, and wept over him as if he was his own son. His lamentations could be heard through ou the building. Charlestown, Dec. 16.—Shields Green and John Copeland, the two negro Har per s Ferry conspirators, have just paid the forfeit of their lives The crowd in town is very great, and the execution was witnessed by at least 1,600 people. At nine o clock the field was occupied by the troops, and seven minutes before eleven the procession made its appear ance, and had arrived on the ground at 11.5 The prisoners were in a wagon, in which also were the sheriff and jailor. They mounted the scaffold with a firm step. The caps were then placed over their heads an appropriate prayer was made by the Rev. Mr. North, of the Pres byterian Church, and they were launch ed into eternity. Before the rope was cut Green was heard to utter a fervent prayer, but Copeland was not heard to pray. Green’s neck was broken, and he died without a struggle. Copeland writhed in v.olent contortions for several minutes. In the scaffold the prisoners bid adieu te the three clergyn, eD> Messrs. North, Vaugh, and Lehr, and hoped to meet them in Heaven. lhe drop fell at eleven minutes past eleven. The bodies will be placed in jail for interment to-morrow. Last night, on the receipt of the news of the attempted escape of Cook and Cop pie, Gov. Wise telegraphed Gep.'Tuha. ferro to take possession of the jail, .which was accordingly done. San Juan Island. Difficulty— The Full Dispatches of Gen. Scott. Washington, Dec. 15.—The full cor respondence between General Scott and Gov. Douglass, of Briiisli Columbia touching the San Juan difficulty, and which resulted in restoring the joint military occupation of the Island, was received at the State Department. From this, it appears that Gov. Doug lass first proposed a civil occupation of tbe Island, with tbe organization of a per mauent government, under magistrates to be appointed’ by the two powers con jointly. To this Gen. Scott objected, and proposed instead, a return to the joint j military occupation, which proposition | was finally accepted and the terms agreed upon. | These terms are that only two conipa. I nies are to be permitted ou tlie Island one British and one American, each cod sisling of a hundred men, and that all other troops shall at once be withdrawn. These two companies, moreover, are to be under specific orders drawn up by the two Governments conjointly. In accordance with this arrangement, orders were at once given for the with drawal of all except one company cf the American troo; s, and they were so with drawn before Gen Scott left. The British troops, however, had not arrived on the Island when the General sailed. Sugar Crop of JLoiiislaiia.
