Shortly after our last paper went to press the j
Republican of the 21th inst came to hand, con-|
taming a large dose of spite, spleen and splutter '
about the election of State Printer. The editor j
of the Republican says; ‘‘/a rinc of the large ]
number uj neir members, we visited Afilledgeville Rt i
the opening ox the Session, with the hope of break- I
ing down the pernicious system of trading iu |
votes, and offered to become a candidate with a 1
pledge to engage in no combination or barter.” j
The plain English of which is, that the editor of j
the Republican believing that a large portion of j
the members were green horns, and cculd be ini- ■
posed upon by gas and fustian, be generously
condescended to be a candidate, and allow them
the honor of voting for him, pledging himself to j
keep all the money and not divide with any other !

mistake. A very large proportion of the mi mbers

OPINIONS OF THE EUROPEAN PRESS.
Richmond, Nov. 26.—Northern papere received
here give us the following opinions of the Euro
pean Press.
Tho London Times in an editorial on the New
York Chamber of Commerce and the Confederate
steamer Alabama, says the New York Chamber
of commerce bad better send Captain Wilkes af
ter the Alabama; we cannot undertake to capture
this one Confederate cruiser; we are sorry that
the Brilliant was burnt, aud so we are that the
towns on tho Mississippi were burnt, and that
the murder and dishonor of the men and women
of Alabama took place - These scenes is said to
have suggested the name of this terrible cruiser.
The Lincoln Government lias again backed down.
The Diario de la Mariano says as soon as the
representative here ot Her Majesty at Washing-
ton, 6enor Tassara, received details of the case
he visited an i read Mr. Seward a dispatch of the
Captain Genera! of Cuba, iu which the facts of
the case were slated, aud necessary reclamation
made. Mr. Seward assured the Spanish repre-
seritafive, in the most categorical manner, that
t ie United States Government highly disapproved
of the conduct of the naval officer who violated
our laws and territory, and was willing to give
complete satisficiton to the Government of Spain.
The Loudon Star, in an editorial on the escape oftke
Alabama, says it is known that as many as nine other
s'rips Tie being built or equipped in British harbors for
the service of the Confederate States, If they were

year for the Ians and journals, tbe Governor
(Johnson) got tliose that wore lacking printed at
this office; and the job work was all printed at
our office. Tbe members all knew tbat the print
ing could not be done according to law in Savan
nah. The editor of the Republican speaks of the
private history ot the election of fetato pi inter as
disreputable to those engaged in it. li that edi-

The Planting Interests.
It is certain that unless peace be

ring sections, or at least the blockade
of our ports shall be raised during the
next three or four months, there will
be less cotton planted next year than
there has been the present year. Plan

ure of pitching a crop of cotton next

the future, and manufacturers and
investment of capital. Aud I do not think tha>
he who invests with a prospect ot these large pro
fits. should ask to be released from all persona!
lialfflity iu case of failure.
Patriotism alone seldom prompts the investment
of capital. Nor indeed is there more patriotism
in the manufacture of iron, than there is in ma
king corn or wheat. These are as necessary as
iron, and iron can no mnro be made without them,
than they can without iron. We compel the
planter who attempts to make money by raises
grain and fails, to pay his debts.
Why then should he who invests hip surplus in
an iron foundry-arid fails be exempt from the pay
ment of his debts?
1 he fact that oue is attempted by an individual,
and the other by an association of individuals,
does not alter the principle or the justice of the
case.
Again, this bill is obnoxious to the most grave
constitutional objections. The 5th paragraph of
the 4th Section of the 2d Article of the Cnnstitn-
liou of this Stale, contains the following language:
"Nor shall any law or ordinance pass which refers
to more than one subject matter, or contains mat
ter different from what is expresseel in the title
thereof.” And in the 6th Section of the same Ar
tide, it is declared, "Tile General Assembly shall
have no power to graut corporate privileges to
private companies, except Banking, Insurance.
Railroad, Canal, Flank Road, Navigation, Min
ing. Express, Lumber and Telegraph Companies ”
This bill proposes to give this private company
“corporate privileges." not only for the purpose
of carrying on the “uueeing of iron and coal, and
preparing the same for use,” but it gives them
the power ot erecting and carrying on furnaces,
emits, and all other buildings, machinery and fu tures
necessary for tiie successful operation of the le
^gitimate business of said company, and the bene
ficiul management of its property, and for the traits
purtation ot its iron and coal, and other pruceetis.
issues ami profits of its mines mills anil property
to market,” and declares that it shall ‘ have pow
er aud authority to purchase least; and bold any pro
perty. real, personal aud mired, which may be
deemed by saul comp my necessary fur its purposes.
It also invests tiie company with “all and dog
ular tbe rights powers and an horities which are
necessary to enable it (in Dade county) to locale,
construct aud maintain, such Railroad or Rail
roads, as the directors may deem necessary for tbe
convenient transaction of its business.
If this bill becomes a law. this company not
only lias power to carry on the usual business of
mining iron and coal, which so far as the purpo
ses of mining aie concerned, are complete, when
the coalistakeu from the earth ready for market,
aud the iron ore ready for the furnace, or at fur
thest. when it is converted into pig iron, and ready
for the manufacturer, but it has the power to
erect mills for tho manufacture of iron into bar or
into steel: aud to erect such fixtures and machine
ry ns it may find necessary for the successful ope
ration of its legitimate business, and the beneficial
management of its property. Under this part o!
its charter, it may deem it beneficial in the manage
meat of its property, to erect a nail factory, a fectary
fertile manufacture of knives, razors and aR other
kinds of cutlery, a factory for the purpose of ma
king machinery lor cotton factories, and one for
making threshing machine:-,, corir-shellers, plows,
hoes, and all kinds of farming utensils, and may
oncaoe in the manufacture of arms aud ordnance,
and in a word, in making all sorts of articles auo
things made by the use of iron and coal. All
these are legitimate and useful branches of indus
try, but tbe Constitution certainly does not au
thorize the legislature to incorporate a company
with all these powers and privileges.
The noun mine is defined thus: “A subterrane
ous work, or excavation tor obtaining metals, me-
talicores.or other mineral substances, a pit, a
cavern.”
The verb mine is defined thus: to dig ores,
mines or burrows; while the noua mining is de

But our people will be all the bet
ter olH’or this omission to plant cot

les of prime necessity which may be
planted profitably, whicn have here
tofore been almost wholly neglected.
Planters can make as much money

vegetables,’ as they formerly realized

to the neglect of almost everything

ate here the various kinds of crops
which may be planted with profit.
Ali intelligent farmers know from
their own wants what toe people
need and absolutely suffer for, even
those who have plenty of money with
which to purchase. The people need
not only an abundance of bread and
meat, poultry, &c.. but a hundred
other articles which can only be sup*
plied at present by our own planters
and farmers. We trust that the plan
ters will consider the subject of these
remarks maturely during the ensu
ing winter. Without their aid a large
portion of the non-producing people
must approach the verge of starva

there will be severe suffering e oie

The business of mining is therefore an employ
ment as distinct fiom that of manufacturing, as is
the business of planting and raising grain, trom
that of milling or baking the products of the mill
into bread. The Constitution has authorized the
legislature to grant to fining Companies corpo
rate privileges, but it has distinctly denied to the
legislatuve the power to grant, like privileges to
manufacturing companies. Whether wisely so or
not, is not for us to determine, as we have sworn
to support the Constitution as it is But if we
could avoid this objection to the bill, aud could
find iu the Constitution a grant of power to incor
porate a manufacturing company, we must admi -
that a bill which incorporates both a min rig and
a manufacturing company, refers to more than one
subject mailer, and, therefor* violates the ottier
provision of the Constitution, which I have first
quoted.
But the objection does not stop here. The bill
also incorporates a Kail Road Company, and au
thorizes the company to locate the Road or Roads
and to take the lands of private citizens for the
construction of these Reads, by paying jnst com
pensation. Mining is one employment—one sub
ject matter—Railroading is another distinct em
ployment—a different subject matter. But
here again the Constitution is violated, as it do
clams that no law or ord nance shall pass, which
contains ‘matter different from ivliat is expressed
in tiie title thereof.”
The title of this act has net i xpressctl one word
on the subject of Railroading, nor would any one
reading it. suspect that the bill granted ail ilie
powers aud privileges necessary to enable tbe
company to construct one or mere Rail Roads. It
may. however, be said that the business of Rail
reading is connected with that of a mining aud
manufacturing company of the chaiacter intended
to he organized, as it must have transportation to
and from the works. If so, may >ve not also, with
equal propriety, incorporate iu the same bill, a
steam boat company to carry the products of tbe
company by water, and a plank road to enable tin-
company to bring supplies of piovisions to its
works, and a merchant mill to grind meal anti
flower for its operati ves, and a commercial compa
ny to supply the officers aud workmen with goods,
and a telegraph company to enable the managers
to receive intelligence rapidly in matters of inter
est to' the company. In a word, as the business of
mining, manufacturing, navigation, commerce,
and planting, while different subjects matter, are
relief of suffering, and earnestly hopes that abun
dant and frequent contributions will continue to
be made for the relief of our poor, yet he would
rati er that a Committee of citizens should be ap
pointed to receive and distribute turthercontribu-
nons, than to have so great a responsibility con
turned for so long a time entiiely upon himself.
His memorandum book of the distribution of
what has been placed in his hands, is held ready

Milledgeville, Nov. 26th. 1662.
The Krulal .Aliirder in Missouri.
It appears that the Yankee command
ers in the South, not satisfied with their
former works of ossnssination and pillage,
and encouraged by the Government’s neg
lect of retaliation, have ventured in Mis
souri upon a diabolical slaughter of our
prisoners that is without a parallel outside
of the annals of the Sepoys. The outrage
is one of cold-blooded and horrible detail;
but its important incidents may be related
in a few words.
The statement was first published in a
New York paper, that Brigadier General
McNeil had, in the early part of the last

The following extract from au order recently

By order of General Van Dorn.
M. M. KlMMF.I.; A. A. G.
It will be seen by the foregoing order, that
Gen. Van Dorn takes upon himself all the re
sponsibility for tbe “failure” in his late battle at
Corinth, lie says it arose from no fault either of
his officers or his troops, but was his own mis
fortune.
This is true magnanimity, and as rare as it is
genuine and manly. Such an avowal evinces a
nobility of soul ttiat is as creditable to the head
and heart as the winning of a battle. It is the
first instance of the kind since the war commenc
ed. where the commanding officer has made pub
lic acknowledgment of his failure and confessed
that the fault lay at his own door.

, t, , • xx- ■ 1 spread Confederacy. But who can portray the an-
ers at Palmyra m Missouri because a I P; gl , creared in y ber „ aved home s, or depict the
tory citizen ot that otate had been carried * —* *
off a prisoner by* our forces. From further
accounts of the affair in the enemy’s own
publications it appears that the missing
man, Andrew Allsman, was a legitimate
prisoner of war ; that on the descent of
the Confederate forces upon Palmyra he
was captured by them ; that lie belonged
to the Federal cavalry, but that being too
old to endure all the hardships of active
duty, he was detailed as a spy, being ‘fre
quently,’ as one of the Yankee papers
states, ‘called upon for information touch
ing the loyalty of men, which he always
gave to the extent of his ability.’
When General McNeil returned to Pal
myra, he caused a notice to be issued that
unless Allsman was returned in ten days
lie would shoot ten Confederate prisoners
as ‘a meet reward for their crimes, among
which was the illegal restraining of said
Allsman of his liberty.’ The ten days
elapsed, and the prisoner was not returned.
The following account of what ensued, is
condensed from the Palmyra Courier, a
tory journal, without any variation trom
I he language in which it describes the
deed of the demons with whom it was in
sympathy :
“The tenth day expired with last Fri
day. On that day ten rebel prisoners al
ready in custody, were selected to pay
with tlieir lives the penalty demanded.—
A little after 11 o’clock, a. m., the next
dav, three Government wagons drove to
the jail. One contained four, aud each of
the others three rough board coffins. The
condemned men were conducted from the
prison aud seated in the wagons one upon
each coffin. A sufficient guard of soldiers
accompanied them, and the cavalcade
started for the fatal grounds. The ten
coffins were removed firnn the wagons and
placed in a row, six or eight feet apart,
forming a line north and south. Each
coffin was placed upon the ground, with
its foot west and head east. Thirty sol
diers of the 2d M. S. M. were drawn up
in a single line, extending north and south,
facing the row of coffins. The arrange
ments completed, the men knelt upon the
grass between their coffins and tbe sol
diers. At the conclusion of a prayer by
the army chaplain, each prisoner took his
seat upon the foot of his coffin, facing the
muskets which in a few moments were to
launch them into eternity. They were
nearly all firm and undaunted. The most
noted of the ten was Gaptain Thomas A.
Sidtier, of Monroe count)’, whose capture
at Shelby ville, in.tlie disguise of a woman,
we related several weeks since. He was
now elegantly attired iu a suit of black
broadcloth, with a white vest. A luxuri
ous growth of beautiful hair rolled down
upon his shoulders, which with his line
personal appearance, could not but bring
to mind the handsome but vicious Absa
lom. There was nothing especially wor
thy of note in the appearance of the oth
ers. A few moments after 1 o’clock the
chaplain in attendance shook hands with
the prisoners. Two of them accepted
bandages for the eyes, the rest refused.—
A hundred spectators had gathered around
the amphitheatre to witness the impressive
scene. The stillness of death pervaded
the place. The officer in command now
stepped forward, and gave the word of
mmtnand—‘Ready! aim! lire!’ The
discharges, however, were not made simul
taneously—probably through want of a
perfect previous understanding of the or
ders to fire. Two of the rebels fell back
wards upon tlieir coffins and died instantly.
Captain Sidtier sprang forward and fell
with his head towards the soldiers, his
face upwards, his hands clasped upon his
breast, and the left leg drawn halfway
up. 11c did not move again, but died im
mediately. He had requested the Soldiers
to aim at his heart, and they obeyed but
too implicitly. The other seven were not
killed outright ; so the reserves were call
ed in who dispatched them with their re
volvers.”
agony produced by voids that never can bo filled.
It is ours to lament a youthful patriot. To re
cord the death of one whose love of country
prompted te voluntary service in the ranks of her
defenders. One who left an endeared home to en
counter the perils or the battle-field and finally to
offer his young life a sacrifice on the altar of his
beloved country.
Thus died the youthful, the lamented R Mem-
MlNGER Campbell, ere vet he had attained the
period of manhood. He fell mortally wounded on
the sanguinary battle field at Sharpsburg, and
died in the hands of the enemy after protected
suffering, far away from the home of his child
hood, and the loved ones whe during weeks of
torturing suspense vainly hoped that he might
survive tho alas! too fatal wound.
LoDg will the subject of this tribute be remem
bered. But amid the anguish that only can be
felt by those who are called to pass through simi
lar bereavements, there is yet light that shines be
yond the youthful soldier's grave. ‘There is hope
in his death.” Though young he had dedicated
himself to the service of his Maker, and by a con
sistent walk as well amid the temptations ot the
camp, as when engaged in the ordinary duties of
life he evinced to all around him. that he was in .
deed a Christian soldier, and though death came
suddenly* upon him, he was prepared to enter upon
a higher service, and is now beyond the reach of
all earthly trials and temptations.
Farewell belovpd Memminger till in a brighter
happier world, we shall meet to part no more for
ever.
From infancy to manhood,
How lovely was thy walk;
How gentle every action.
How pure thine every thought,
“None knew thee but to love thee,”
In friends how rich thy store.
Fond friends who loved thee dearly,
Thine early loss deplore.
