Arrival of the Steamer Arabia.
New York, Nov. 17. —The steamer Arabia
has arrived, bringing Liverpool dates of Novem
ber 5.
The Arabia brought 134 passengers.
The clipper ship Challenge had put into Fay
al, leaky. This is the vessel whose captain was
lately so ill while at the Chincha Islands.
The latest accounts from the Principalities
state that Bucharest and other cities had been
placed in a state of siege. Any one found in
correspondence with the Turks will be sbot.
The Turkish fleet left the Bosphorus on the
23th tor the Black Sea.
Rumors of a pacific termination of the diffi
culty were current. It is said that a conference
of the Powers in reference to the future pros
pects of Turkey would be held at London. It
was also said that Austria would resume medi
ation, as she said that her efforts in favor ol a
pacific termination of the difficulty will not be
fruitless.
The Eastern Question. —Reliable intelli
gence fiom the East was very scanty. It was
true that the Turks had crossed the Danube and
occupied Kalafat, and it was reported that the
Russians had repulsed them near that place.
Fighting in Asia was also reported to have
taken place. The mountaineers of Circassia
and Daghistan had defeated the Russians and
captured some of their boats.
Prince Paskiewitch has set out to take com
mand of the Russian army in the Principalities.
It was now stated positively that the Austri
an Envoy has pressed on the Sultan to accept a
new note, which the Czar had approved on the
condition that it was accepted by the Sultan
without modification. The efforts of diplomacy
were now directed to securing the joint assent
of the Sultan and Czar to that note.
There was talk of opening the Turkish loan
in the United States.
The allied fleets were collecling in the Sea of
Marmora, having been dispersed by a storm.
Latest and Highly Important from the Da
nube.
Liverpool, Nov. s.—By sub-marine telegraph
intelligence has been received that fighting be
tween the Turks and Russians was proceeding
briskly in Wallachia. A body of 2,000 Turks
appeared at Giurgeos and attacked the town.—
This brought on an engagement with the Rus
sian force despatched to the assistance of the
place, and great slaughter ensued. Another en
counter took place between 4,000 Turks and a
like number of Russian cavalry, between Kala
fat and Sothia, when the Russians were forced
to retreat.
England and Ireland.—Great inundations
had taken place in the south of Ireland. Much
damage was done at Cork.
The premises of J. P. Hutchinson & Co.,
American merchants at London, had been acci
dently burned. They were insured.
The ship Victoria, which left Glasgow on the
*th tor New York, took fire in the river, and
was burned to the water’s edge.
Italy.—Much alarm was felt at Naples of an
anticipated French invasion now that diploma
tic relations between the two countries were
suspended.
Mr. Owen, United States Consul, had arrived
at Naples.
A naturalized American named Papeir had
been kept in custody at Ancona by the Austrain
authorities on no charge, except that of enter
taing liberal sentiments. The American Con
sul had interposed, and, after numerous delays,
Papeir was finally liberated. He was. howev
er. still kept under serveiliance, because he re
fused to sign a declaration that he would never
again visit Italy. This seems to be a case de
manding the prompt action of the United States.
MARKETS.
Liverpool , Nov. s.—Cotton is dull and prices
irregular, especially for inferior sorts. Prices
were however not quotable lower. Sales of the
week 32.380 bales, of which speculotors took
4,250 and exporters 4,020 bales. Fair Mobile
6Jd, Middling s}d, closing dull. Stock 706,580
bales.
Breadstuff's were in more limited demand at 3d

Havre, Oct. 31.—Sales of cotton for the week
4.000 bales. Stock 64,000 bales. Market quiet.
Wheat firm. Flour slightly easier.
SECOND DESPATCH.
Turkey and Russia.—Omar Pasha, before
crossing the Danube, addressed a spirited pro
clamation to the army, stirring up their patrio
tism and declaring he would “sacrifice his body
and soul, to be revenged on the invaders of his
country.”
He kept bis word as to the Russian evacua
tion of the Principalities, and at the expiration
of the fifteen days, commenced hostilities in all
directions, and in good earnest. During the in
terim of fifteen days the Turks were actively
employed in transporting troops certain por
tions of the Danube, from which they could cross
with little further obstacle to the opposite banks
held by the Russians.
The passage of the Danube by the Turks under
command of Omar Pasha was effected without
opposition.
The reason assigned for the evacuation of Ka
lafat by the Russians, was the great mortality
which prevailed among the troops in the differ
ent camps.
It was rumored, however, that the Russians
afterwards returned to Kalafat, and in a pitched
battle had defeated the Turks. P
The main force of the Russians were in posi
tion near Bucharest,where several hundred pieces
of artillery were-posted, and every preparation
made for defence.
There were rumors prevalent that Reschid
Pacha had retired from the Ministry.
In the conflict at Giurgegos, which is stated
to have been very desperate, the Turks received
the worst of the fight and retreated up the river,
closely followed by the Russians.
The Turks respect all foreign property under
the Austrian flag.
Another dispatch from Vienna, byway of
Paris’ under date of November 3d, announces that
a battle had taken place near Kalafat between
the Turks and Russians. The Turks numbered
8,000, and the Russian force was only 2,500.
The engagement was a desperate one, and lasted
about two hours, when the Russians retreated
with a heavy loss.
Prince Gortchakoff had left Bucharest for
Karaiova. His departure produced a profound
sensation. A battle was expected to take place
in that direction. Karaiova was full of Russian
troops.
It was supposed that the Russians would pur
posely allow a considerable portion, of the Turks
to establish themselves in Lesser Wallachia, in
order to bring them to battle as soon as possible ;
and as the Russians felt confident of victory, they
would, after driving back the Turks, quietly
await the settlement of the affair on such terms
as the great European powers thought reasona
ble.
The combined fleets of England and France
lie at Lapsa, in the Dardanelles.
The Porte had despatched Namir Pasha to
Pans and London on a special mission.
All the Russian subjects in Turkey are placed
under the protection of Austria.
A refugee tumult bad taken place at Pera.
French and English officers were arriving in
Turkey in considerable numbers.
The Great European Powers were actively at
work to check hostilities.
With regard to the new note reported to have
been drawn up at the sailing of the Baltic, it is
stated that the Czar accepted it on condition that
England and France would guarantee the Sul
tan’s acceptance, which, however it is under
stood those countries declined to do, neither be
ing disposed to use coercion. The Czar declared
that this would be the last proposition that he
would make or accept.
A grand council of the Turkish dignitaries it
was believed was about to be called together in
Turkey to consult on the subject.
Omar Pacha’s Proclamation.—The follow
ing proclamation was addressed by Omar Pacha
to the Turkish troops previous to his crossing
|bt Danube: j
Proclamation.—lmperial Soldiers: When
fiim and courageous, we shall engage the enemy,
we will not fly—but sacrifice body and soul to
be avenged. Look to the Koran :on the Koran
we have sworn You are Mussulmans, and I
doubt not you are ready to sacrifice body and
soul for your religion and government. But if
there be among you a single man afraid of war,
let him say so, for it is dangerous to face the
enemy with saeh men. He who is under a feel
ing of fear should be employed in hospitals or
other occupation; but he who remains with us
and turns his back on the enemy, shall be shot.
Let courageous men, who have long manifested
their devotedness to their religion and throne, re
main ! Their hearts are united w’ith God, and
if faithful to religion they will piove themselves
brave. God will assuredly give them victory.
Soldiers ! let us purify our hearts, and then put
confidence in a God. Let us do battle—- saciifice
ourselves like our ancestors, and as they be
queathed our country and our religion to us, we
ought to bequeath them to our children. You
are all aware that the great object of this life is
to serve God and the Sultan worthily and thus
win heaven J Soldiers, may God protect all who
have the honor to believe and serve in these
Principal ities.
England.—The riots at Wigon had been sup
pressed.
The bullion in the bank of England had in
creased,
The effect of the last war news was not known
as the usual dispatch was not received from Lon
don just previous to the steamer’s sailing.
Money was in quick demand, and silver was
in great request for shipment to India and China,
and the price had advanced.
A Floral Festival.
Since the Augusta Fair, we have noticed a
great many allusions to the very limited display
of flowers there exhibited, and also, some very
commendatory suggestions as to the means of
arousing that interest of flora culture which
should belong so peculiarly to the Southern peo
ple. We do not think that the State Fair was
exactly the occasion for such a display. Hogs,
mules, horses, cotton gins, bed-quilts, &c., &c.,
gave Flora but a poor opportunity to be appre
ciated—besides it was not the proper seasonto
afford a very abundant display, and no one lelt
much interested,piobably,save those w hoe green
houses and parterres had received that attention
which leisure and wealth only can afford. The
spring is the season for flowers—when the woods
are green and leafy, when vines clamber up the
sturdy tree to exhibit their wealth of fragrance
and beauty, and shoot forth their myriad blos
soms, fit nestling places for the thousand warb
lers to pour their flood of song; all is then life,
mirth and gaety. When the gentle water lily
rests its delicate head upon the smooth surface
of lake or brook, the honey suckle too with its
varied hues softening the broken undulations of
hill and dale—the odorous sweet shrub, the hare
bell, the daisy, the thousand other wild flowers
that genial spring calls into life infuses through
out all natures bright and buoyant spirts, almost
clapping their rosy hands and whispering in per
fumed plaadits, the return anniversary of Na
ture’s birth. This is the time for a Floral dis
play. There are none so rich as to be able to
dispense with such delights, none so poor but
that they can|revel in the most gorgeous chariot
that Floral wealth can construct.
But we did not commence this article to
etherialise among flowers, so much as to call at
tention to suggestions that have been made for
the holding, during the spring months ot next
year, a series of flowery festivals in the principal
cities of Georgia, and extending, if convenient,
and our neighbors will join us into South Caro
lina and Alabama. The Home Gazette and the
Soil of the South, have introduced the subject
with such zeal and interest, that we second with
all our heart their suggestions. Who will lead
off in this matter ? What says Augusta, Savan
nah, Macon, Columbia, S. C., Montgomery,
Ala. ? We can speak confidently for Columbus.
Ihe ladies of our city, we know will respond
with that public spirit and appreciation of all
that is lovely and joyous, as well as useful, for
which they are so eminently distinguished. It
is already time that some steps were taken to
bring about such offerings to Pomona and
Flora, as will be worthy of our clime, and the
refinement of our people. Let a flowery holiday
be ushered in, and dancing youths and maidens
greet in laughing choruses, the rich festival of
. garlanded spring, beneath the May pole’s sha
-5 dow—and let the old be young again amid mirth
, an d merriment. Why may not such festivals
. take place—years ago, in “ Merrie England,”
. the May pole was erected, andjviHagers flocked
l in hundreds to intertwine the rosy wreaths of
spring. What can be more refining, more eleva-
I ting, more innocently joyous? What do flow
! ers not teach—what lessons of goodness and
, mercy do they not suggest—what emblems of
’ innocence, beauty and purity do they not pre
sent ?
t our voiceless lips, 0 flowers, are living preachers,
Each cup a pulpit, and each leal a book.”
: Flowers are indeed the “bright stars of earth,”
. gems that sparkle in the zenith, and deck the
pathway ot life—they are beneath, around and
above us, smiling companions wherever we go,
> that “give lessons to teach us how to live.” Can
leisure then not be afforded to give a “triumph”
to those gentle ministers of joy, love and peace ?

j Tragedy in Real Life—Love and Murder!!
[ The stain of blood has again crimsoned our
. city’s annals with a*• damned spot,” which will
, not “ out ” A man and a woman have fallen
. together in the full flow of an ardent and vigo
j rous life; while madness and murder have min
, gled in the elements of a terrible romance. Fic
tion, in her wildest flights, never pictured a
- more strange and startling reality than that
; which was yesterday enacted at No. 80 Bourbon
j street; and the scene, by those who witnessed
it, will not be readily foigotten. But, in the
unfolding of our tale, we must begin with the
beginning.
A young and beautiful artiste, attached to the
, corps ot the French Opera in this city, some time
[ since formed the acquaintance of a French gen
tleman in one of tae cities of the West. The
. I t renchman, as was natural, seemed to feel a
s | great interest in the rising fortunes of his fair
1 i EventLTlTT’h and Visited her frequently.
, i Uons and y thi e °, Ver ardenfc in hisatten
-3 yet kdfful hand y T eiked him with 3
yet skuiio! hand. Time passed on. Theladv
1 i and^ er husband—for she was married-started
3 I thl f Cl £ y and arrived here about ten
1 bey took lodgings at Mrs. Smith’s No 80
Bourbon street. A few days Xrwards the
r I renchman also arrived and took rooms in the
same neighborhood. He soon sought meins of
f renewing his acquaintance with the lair canta
t f r ‘ ce ’ and ? n federal occasions visited her at her
i lodgings- Il ! tl ee d , he appeared to be perfectly
: infatuated with her—begged her to sing tor him
and praised her music and her charms in the
[ ' highest terms of extravagant laudation,
j Yesterday at noon he paid his last visit to her
! L Wlth what burning words of melting madness
he told his tale ol unbridled love, none now alive
; can say ; but that he did so tell his tale, and re
ceive in answer a disappointing negative, can
scarcely admit of a doubt. Or, haply, both
loved—well—but yet “ not wisely,” and as they
could not live together, they determined to plunge
| together into the deep abyss of death! But it
were vain to speculate: one is already an un
honored tenant of the Potter’s Field, and the
other is unconsciously yet rapidly passing into
that “ sleep which knows no waking.” No cry
i j was heard ; no indication of a quarrel; but the
reports ot two pistol shots, discharged in quick
succession, brought the inmates of the house to
u l a i r l ltte * room t and there, such a sight was
beheld as made the beholders shrink back aghast.
.Near each other, on the floor, the artiste and her
tragic visitor were lying, and their blood, which
flowed separately for a short distance, mingled
at length in one common stream. The man
with hoarse groans, was gasping out his life, and
a portion of his brains nestled, like a terrible seal
of death, on the snow white breast of his com
panion.
The bullet, it would seem, entered the mouth
of the artiste , and passing along the base of the
brain, lodged in the neck. She lay speechless
on the floor, but her bosom heaved with tumultu
ous swellings and she moved at times as if she
lelt a sudden twinge of pain. Os her recovery
physicians entertain not the slightest hope.
,7 an hour after the fatal shot was fired the
sell-destroyer was a corpse. The weapon he
had used was a revolver, and well had it per
formed its allotted work.
An inquast was held on the body of the de
ceased by deputy coroner Terrill, and a verdict
attributing his death to a pistol shot wound, in
flicted by himself was returned. It appears that
he first fired at the artiste and then discharged >
another barrel of the revolver in his right ear ]
He was born in France, but bait lived several
years in England. The name he was known
by was J. Beltford, and he appeared to be about
forty yeats of age.
For some time after the tragic occurrence, al
ready described, took place, Mr. Sage, the artiste's
husband, was absent, and knew nothing of the
matter. When he returned and was informed of
it, he at first became frantic, after which he
fainted away, and was with difficulty restored.

TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 22.
See first page Daily, this morning.
The letter of our Milledgeville corres
pondent, containing the proceedings of the Legis
lature on Saturday, failed to reach us yesterday
morning.
The two back Northern mails, came to
hand yesterday afternoon.
The Public Printing.
A Milledgeville correspondent of The Corner
Stone , a paper published at Columbus, Ga., and
established about a year ago for the avowed pur
pose of advocating a dissolution of the Union,
has singled out the editor of The Constitutionalist
aS an object of attack and insinuation, and has
indulged in sundry malevolent speculations as to
our motives of action in matters upon which he
touches. These we pass in silence. We are
beyond the reach of injury from such a source,
and are content to leave the public to pass their
judgment upon our acts, and the motives of them,
without entering into a controversy with our
assailant.
We can have no feeling but that of contempt
for a man, who, on flimsy and hollow pretexts,
will conj ire up from his own dark and scheming
imaginings, imputations on the motives of one
whom he would injure if he couid, but cannot
reach in any other than this assassin-like man
♦aer.
We simply notice him to place ourself right on
a matter of fact. We are not a candidate for
State Printer, aor have we ever intended to be,
nor have we any pecuniary interest in the
scramble for that appointment.
Tampering with a Slave.
A man calling himself Edward Detrer, about
thirty-five years old, and said to be a native ot
Philadelphia, was arrested in Savannah on Fri
day, for attempting to entice off a negro man
the property of Messrs Kelly & Montmollin.—
He was taken before the Mayor, and informed
by that functionary, that unless he left the State
within a given number of hours, he would be
locked up for safe keeping. He chose to take
a speedy departure, and was escorted by one of
the police officers of Savannah as far as Charles
ton.
Chinese Jugglers.
Triis admirable troupe of Jugglers, who have
astonished all who have seen them by their won
derful performances, made their first appearance
at Conceit Hall last evening, and all present
seemed much pleased with what they saw. To
form an idea of their different tricks in magic,
throwing balls aud knives, springing, rolling
tumbling, &c., they must be seen to be appre
ciated. They give another performance this
evening, and we would advjse all to go and see
them.
The Hall was full last night. There is one
portion of the performance, however, we think
' could be well dispensed with. We allude to
the brass band being placed inside the Hall.—
, They will do well enough out of doors, but their
i music is any thing but agreeable within. Each
t seems to try which can blow the hardest on his
instrument, and they make a beautiful discord
, among them. We would recommend a good
’ Pianist—the music would be more acceptable,
1 particularly when ladies are present.
South Carolina Railroad.
Shippers of Cotton to Charleston, will see by
t - advertisement, that after the 24th inst., the rate
. of freight on Cotton will be $1 per bale.
Good Dividend.
’ The Board of Directors of the Bank of Au
, gusta, declared a dividend of four per cent out of
? the profits of the past six months, which is pay
-1 able on demand.
I A New Bridge over the Tugaloo.
We are pleased to learn by letter, that Mr. S.
Knox, has just erected, at the expense of about
SIO,OOO, anew Bridge over the Tugaloo river,
on the road leading from Pendleton S. C. via
i Carnesville to Athens, at Cleveland’s old Ferry.
r It is said to be a very substantial piece of work.
I Nf.w York Money Market.—The Times, of
the 16th, says the ease in the supply of Money
. offered at all in Wall-street is quite marked.—
- The large Banks are lenders on first class Stocks,
‘ at seven per cent. The weekly statement is re*
, garded as an index to a more comfortable move
| ment hereafter. Mercantile paper is held for
1 ten per cent, for choice names. Good lists, how
’ ever, continue to be sold at twelve per cent-
The tendency to ease in the Money market has
stiffened Foreign Exchange. The regular Ban
kers were holding at 109 i cash, and 109{ part
cash and part paper. Tiansient Bank namesi
109* to 109 J. The Africa, which sailed on the
17th took out half a million in specie.
On Monday night last, the residence of the
Rev. Wesley P. Arnold, of Wilkes county, was
consumed by fire. The Gazette is pained to
learn that everything belonging to the house,
together with all his provisions were destroyed.
Mr. A. is the circuit Preacher of the Methodist
Church for Wilkes county.
The present cheap Postage System of the
United States, it is alleged, has not come up to
general expectation, and there is a probability
that some amendments will be proposed at the
next session of Congress, increasing the price so
that the Department will not be a charge upon
the treasury. It is, however, very doubtful if
any increase will be made by Congress at this
late day.
At a meeting of the Directors of the Marino
and Fire Insurance Bank of Savannah, held Fri
day last Charles F. Mills, Esq., was unanimous
ly elected President, in the room of Elias Reed,
Esq., deceased.
Upon opening one of theiTconsigniHents of
gold from California a day or. two since, the offi
cers of the Americap Exchange Bank found two
boxes which should have contained about $50,-
000 worth of dust fj]led with shot. Where, or
by whom the robbery, was perpetrated, remains
thus far a mystery.
Decline in Brunswick Stock.—We observe
in the Npw York Mercantile Journal, reliable
authorjty in such matters, that the stock of the
(Qa.) Land Company is quoted at
6 a 6| ; This stock has for the month past, du
ring the money pressure, been quoted at 8i to 9J.
It would seem that while other stocks are re
covering from the depression, the quotation fig
ures of the Brunswick stock have a downward
tendency.
Dr. R. W. Gibbes, as President, has given no

[Correspondence of the Const. & Republic.]
Milledgeville, Nov. IS, 1853.
Mr. Editor: In the letter preceding this, I
stated that it was generally believed here that
the Democratic party would stand by the nomi
nation of the caucus, and, therefore, that Gov.
McDonald would probably be elected U. S. Sen
ator. The statement was correct. It was con
fidently believed and expected that McDonald
would be elected on the first or second ballot;
but contrary to expectation no election has taken
place. While the mass of both parties here as
sembled looked forward to the election as a mat
ter fixed upon for to-day, and certain to take
place, some ot the sachems were engaged in de
vising schemes which have produced this trouble
in the wigwam.
Below will be found the Legislative proceed
ings, and that portion of the proceedings in the
Senate which appears subsequent to Mr. Single
ton’s resolution, is nearly an exact copy of the
journal. I have been thus particular in furnish
ing your readers with a full and correct report of
the action of the Senate, in order that every one
may form his own opinion concerning the mo
tives of different members. Tour correspond
ent, at present, offers no comments, he “doth
nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in mal
ice.”
LEGISLATIVE PROCEEDINGS.
Senate.— The Committee on Internal Im
provements through their Chairman, Mr. An
derson, reported that (hey had examined the bill
repealing the 10th section of the act for the gov
ernment of the W. & A. R. R., and amending
the 2d section of the same act, and that they re
ported the same back to the Senate without the
expression of any opinion. Mr. Anderson also
reported a resolution in behalf of the same com
mittee, to authorize the two committees on In
ternal Improvements of the House and Senate,
to appoint a sub-committee of three from the
House committee, and two from the Senate
committee, to examine the Western & Atlantic
Railroad, and report thereon to the General As
sembly.
Two new bills were reported as follows:
Mr. Mosely : a bill to incorporate a Bank in
the city of Griffin, to be styled the “ Interior
Bank of the State of Georgia.”
Mr. Hill: a bill to re-enact and declare in full
force all acts relating to the incorporation of
Monroe, and extend its corporate limits.
Mr. Singleton introduced the following reso
lution :
“ Resolved , by the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives, That the resolution heretofore passed,
bringing on the election of a U. S. Senator this
day, be repealed, and that said election be post
poned until the next session of the General As
sembly.”
Mr. Stephens moved to take up the resolution,
whereupon the yeas and nays W'ere ordered to

1 hose whose votes are not recorded are : An
derson, Gaston, Smith andi Brown, of I'homas.
Mr. Stephens moved to agree to the rescdution
and on that motion moved the previousque.rtion.
Mr. Sturgis moved to lay the resolution on
the table for the present.
Pending the a message was receiv
ed from the House of Representatives, inform
ing the Senate 4 ,hat the House was ready to re
ceive them for the purpose of electing a U. S.
Senator.
Mr. Sturgis rose to a point of order—that the
motion to kay the resolution on the table takes
’ the precedence of the motion “ for the previous
question.”
Mr. Clark rose to a point of order—that the
hour of 11 o’'clock having arrived, when by joint
resolution the Senate and House of Representa
tives determined to go into the election of U. S.
Senator, the Senate could entertain no motion,
, but must repair to the Hall of the House of Rep
resentatives.
The Chair decided the point of order raised by
Mr. Sturgis—that the motion to lay the resolu
tion. of Mr. Singleton on the table for the pre
sent, takes precedure of the motion for the pre
vious question, unless the same was seconded be
fore the motion to lay on the table for the pre
sent was made.
Mr. Miller then mo ved the previous question
on the motion to lay the resolution on the table
for the present.
Before putting the motion for the previous
question, the Chair decided first the point of or
der raised by Mr. Clark, that the motion to re
pair to the hall of the House of Representatives
is prior to any other motion. Mr. Stephens ap
pealed from the decision of the Chair, and the
yeas and nays were called for on this question
yeas 46, nays 48. So the decision of the Chair
was reversed.
Mr. Claik mov ed to proceed with the order of
the day, waich was to repair to the Representa
tive chamber, fir .r the purpose of electing a U. S.
Senator, and insisted that a decision of the Chair
be made on tb e point—whether said motion was
in order. TKe Chair decided that the same was
a privileged question, and takes precedure of all
other motior is, previous question included.
Mr. Stephens appealed from the decision of
the Chair, and on the question whether the de
cision shal'l be sustained, there were 45 yeas, 49
nays. So the decision was reversed.
The quest ion then recurred on the motion of
Mr. Miller ior the previous question, and on the
question shall the main question be now put,”
the yeas and nays were, yeas 50, nays 44.
The pr evious question was then pint, “ Will
the Senate agree to the resolution,” whereupon
the yeas and nays were required to be recorded
and are, yeas 49, nays 45.
The yeas are, Adams, Bailey, Bea<l, Boyd,
Brown* of Baldwin, Bullard, Crawford, Crow
der, Dawson, Delamar, Dixon, of Talbot, Drake,
Dunnagan, Gresham, Griggs, Guyton, Hubbard,
Hull, Jackson, King. Knight, Lai aghridge, Lam
beth, Love, Miller, Moon, Mooi McConnell,
McLeod, Morrel, Newsom, Pratt, Peebles, Piles,
Pope, Ridley, Robinson, Saffold, . Simmons, Sin
gleton, Stephens, Stovall, Surren cy, Trammel,
Turner, Wilder, Williamson, Wil lingham, and
White.
Those in the negative are, B eck, Boggess
Biyan, Cannon, Camden, Chastain, Clark, Coch
ran, Cone, Collier, Dabney, Dean, Dickson, of
Walker, Drane,Dunwoody, Echols, .Green, Gas
ton, Greer, Guerry, Hale, Hill, Hi limes, Jame

ly, McGehee, Morris, Mounger, Patterson, Paulk,
Reynolds, Reddish, Sturgis, Strickland, Thomas,
Watts, Walker, of Crawford, Walker of Jones,
Wilcox and Whitworth.
Those whose votes are not recorded are An
derson. Brown, of Thomas, Deadwyler, and
Smith.
It was then moved that the Senate adjourn
until 10 o’clock to-morrow morning, and on the
motion, the vote stood yeas 48, nays 46. The
Senate, therefore adjourned until 10 o’clock to
morrow morning.
Messrs. Brown, of Thomas, and Smith were
prevented from attending by sickness. Mr.
Gaston, I understand, had stepped out shortly be
fore, and was not in the hall of the Senate when
the vote was taken on the question, “ shall Mr.
Singleton’s resolution be taken up ?”
A very warm discussion, participated in prin
cipally by Messrs. Miller, Sturgis, Ridley, Clark,
Hull and Cone arose on the various points of or
der mentioned in the above report.
The discussion, however, was entirely too ir-
regular to admit of a full and correct report. But
yet it was instructive, clearly showing the great
advantage which a member, well acquainted
with Parliamentary rules, has over his antago
nist, who is ignorant of them, however full may
be his information upon other points, and how
ever acute his logical powers. The excitement
was intense in the lobby and in the gallery du
ring this discussion, for upon the decision of these
points, depended the question whether the Legis
lature would go into an election for U. S. Sena
tor. It is impossible to form any surmise con
cerning the time when the election will take
place, if it should take place at all during the
present session. Gov. Cobb left for home on j
yesterday. He continued to urge' upon his !
friends to stand by the nomination. His con
duct has been worthy of all praise.
Gov. McDonald left to-day on professional
business, but is expected here again in a few
days.
The bill of Dr. Philips, creating a contingent
fund of $10,000„ and appropriating $4,000 as a
part of the printing fund for 1854, were read the j
third time and put upon their passage. The sum ,
of SIO,OOO was, on motion, striken out and t
$12,000 inserted in lieu thereof: in like manner !
the sum of $4,000 was stricken out and $6,000
inserted in lieu thereof. The bills as thus amend
ed were adopted, and the clerk ordered to inform
the house of the ; r passage.
House of Representatives. —The following
new bills wr re introduced into the house, to-day.
Mr. Fanning: a bill to make uniform the stan
dard of weight* and measures in this state.
Mr. Pottle: a bill to amend an act repealing
the 48th section of the 14th division of the Pen
al Code, so far as relates to capital offences.
This bill provides that jurors, who upon oath
shall say that they have conscientious scruples
concerning capital punishment, will be declared
incompetent.
Mr. Harden: a bill to incorporate Dallas, in
Paulding Co.
Mr. Taylor: a bill to compensate Grand and
Petit Jurors in Wilkinson.
Mr. Rucker: a bill repealing an act providing
for the compensation of Grand & Petit Jurors in
Elbert, passed in 1841.
A resolution calling on the Comptroller Gen
eral to report to the house the amount of taxes
paid by each county in the state, was offered by
Col. Martin, of Elbert.
The clerk was then instructed to read bills for
the second time. After which the house ad
! journed until 3 o’clock.
Afternoon Session. —The resolution intro
-1 duced in the forenoon, by Col. Martin, of Elbert,
' calling on the Comptroller General to report an
1 account of the taxes paid by each county, in
1 1851 and 1852 was adopted, with the following
amendment, that the Comptroller also report the
amount of bank stock, of real estate and of city
property.
1 A bill previously introduced, defining the lia
‘ bility of Railroad companies in the injury of
stock, was taken up and referred to a special com
mittee consisting of Reynolds, Arnold, Redding,
Thornton and Philips.
The rest of the evening was occupied in reading
bills the second time, after which the house ad
journed until 10 o’clock to-morrow morning.

The Macon & Warrenton Railroad.
Hancock, Ga., Nov. 18, 1853.
Mr. Editor :— lt is gratifying to the friends of
the Macon & Warrenton Railroad, to learn that
: the preliminary survey of the proposed route for
this road has been completed, and that we may
■ very shortly expect t.'i see something of an of
ficial report from the Engineer, giving the pro
bable cost of said road. Much credit is due that
gentleman for the prompt and efficient discharge
of his duties, and it is to be hoped that the same
energy and zeal will charactei ize this movement
from this, its incipient stage, to the final comple
tion of the road.
That it is highly important for this road to be
speedily built, is a. proposition that will be readi
ly admitted by all who have given this subject a
careful considerat ion.
Georgia, in developing her resources by Rail
roads, very wise ly encouraged their construction
1 by avoiding injitrious competition, which policy
is fully recognized, and appreciated, when we
see the prosperous and flourishing condition of
1 her two leading lines of road; to which nearly
every other in the tributary; the ex*
tension of these branches, and the rapidly in
creasing demands for transportation on these
lines, fully justify the Construction of another
road, which is seriously required by the country
through which it is to pass. Nor is the existing
necessity for this road lessened, when it is a re
cognized fact, by the planting community, that
the freights, charged on these two important
roads, are notv too high, and that it is also lamen
tably true, many o' our citizens are leaving the
oltier counties to find homes in Texas or else
where, and that we may see hundreds and thou
sands of acres of exhausted lands in these coun
ties, that must be re-claimed, by fertilizers,
(which can be used only when transportation is
cheaper) ar remain useless for agricultural pur
poses, and be as they are, eye-sores for the public
gaze, affording melancholy evidence to prove the
ruinous and blasting effects of that wretched
system of tillage so universal in some of the
Southern States. Mr. Editor, will you allow us
to ask the citizens, in the counties interested in
this road, if they are fully alive to their true in
terests in this matter, ready to show that they
are not less public spirited and enterprising than
their sister counties, who have less age, but have
set examples worthy to be followed. Will
Charleston and Augusta be wanting, when their !
interest is so deeply involved,—in a word, shall
it be ever said, that Georgians commenced what j
they failed to finish, —that all will do their duty 1
and this road may be soon completed, is the wish 4
of many. A Friend to Improvement. i
