™*'“ € toting JUsiKiicU AUGUSTA. GA: Hnuday Evening, Jnn. *5, IWS. j X. Y. Legiulwtore. The Houfco of Assembly is still unor ganized, and the prospect is no better than it was two or three weeks ago.— The Americans, having s* von or eight members, hold the balance oi power, and the wheels of legislation are thus locked, and the people of the State are congratulating themselves on what ma ny papers term, a “lucky accident, and hope ninety of the hundred days ■will thus glide away. Ifr The Jacksonville (Fla.) AW about to be discontinued at that place and removed to Fernandina. |ff* Mr. Edward H. Fro he, original ly from Europe, but for several years a resident of New York and other North ern cities, has taken charge of the typo grapical department of tho Bainbridge Argus. % g§f“TheNewnan Banner learns that, Jas. H, Graham, the Sheriff elect of that j county, was accidentally shot in the thigh, In Newnan, on Tuesday bv the discharge of his own pistol. In as cending the Courthouse steps, the pis* tol fell from his side-pocket to the j pavement, causing its discharge into his Tight thigh, ranging upwards. The wound is thought not to be dangerous, j Bather funny, we think, that a sheiili should be found violating the law against carrying concealed weapons. Jsx-Pr*»l«len« Fillmore and the Sabbath. A correspondent of the New York 01- ermr lately met the Ex-President at a social party, and bad liis cariosity excit ed to know tlie secret of such a vigor ous old age. in one who had undergone so vast anSimount of public labor. “Yon appear to lie in excellent health, j sir.” I remarked , .. “I have taken but one dose of medi cine in thirty-seven years,” he replied, “and that was forced upon me li; my; friends, and was entirely unnecessary. •'lt is rather remarkable, sir. ' I said, j “that one who has passed through such a career of toil, care and vicissitude its you have, should maintain a condi tion of uninterrupted bodily vigor. “I owe the fact,” he replied, "to an originally stong constitution, to an cd-; ucation on a farm, and to life-long bab- 1 its of regularity and temperance. I never smoked or chewed tobacco; 1 never knew intoxication. Throughout all my public life I maintained the same | regularity aud systematic habits of liv ing to which I had previously been ac customed. I never allowed my usual hours for sleep to be interrupted. TV Sabbal.li Inhnnjs kefi -u a (tail ol ra-t. Be-1 sides being a religious duty, it was es-| ge-ntial to health. On commencing, my Presidential career, I found that the; Sabbath had frequently been employed bv visitors for their private interviews; with the President. 1 determined to pui an end to this custom, and ordered i mv door-keeper to meet all Sunday vis- ■ itors with an indiscriminate refusal. While Chairman of the “Committee on Ways and Means” in Congress, and du ring my entire Presidential career, my labors were always onerous and often excessive, but I never suffered an hour; of sickness through them all.” Later from Texas* The United States mail steamship! Mexico, Capt. Lawless, from Indianolai and Galveston, the 10th insf., reached: her wharf at an early hour this morn- l ing. The news is six days later, and, principally concerns the recent furious ( gale in the t talveston waters, where it was much longer and more severe than in our liar!-or. it having prevailed, saysj i tlie Abies, “for half an hour with ter-; ( rille violence.” It will lie noticed, by those interested in meteorological sei- 1 ence, that the storm made its appear- j nnee at Galveston as early as 7 o'clock;, in the morning, some six hours before it did here. The steamboat Island City, glnce nr-1 1 rived at Galveston, met the gale at an < earlier hour in the morning, the other., side of Red Fish Bar. The storm jsde- 1 1 scribed as terrific. She, bower, rode out i the gale with no damage beyond the , loss of a new anchor and cable, the lat- , ter being snapped asunder like a mere thread. All accounts at Galveston represent ! , the country as quite impassable for wa- , gons, and scarcely so for stages, and even for travelers on horseback. The ' Trinity ha-, not been higher for four' i yi-ars before. The Brazos is also very | liigh. and planters were improving the opportunity to get their crops to market. 1 The remains cf Hon. Anson Jones i were buried on Tuesday with Imposing . ceremonies. A beautiful and touching eulogy was delivered by Hon. Askbel ' Smith. The Democratic State Convention - met at Austin on the Bth, Dr. Taylor, . of Cass county, presiding. It was! thought Judge Wheeler would be nom inated for Chief Justice. Lieut. E. Fairfax Gray. U. S. N.,ofj Houston, has resigned his commission,; and will enter upon the practice of the law. Gov. Runnels has vetoed the bill for : the relief of the Houston aud Texas! Central Railroad Company, by the amendment of its charter. A*. 0. I‘icaymu, 20th inst. ' tr Gov. King, in his message to the New York Legislature says; “Out of 1,214,771 children in the State between tlie ages of 4 and 21,882,- 735, or ttxty-mne per cent, of the whole, j attend upou the Public Schools of the State, which art- maintained at a cost to each pupil of 84 1-4 cents per month,, or an aggregate per annum to the State of $8,299,8'J8.” Speaking of the Kansas question, he says : “ I repeat here, what in my first mes- \ sage 1 assumed as the deliberate convic tion of the Free States, that ‘ Slavery in the States where it exists, exists by virtue of the local lawalone.an.i that it neither exists nor is confirmed there,nor anywhere, by the force and effect of theConstutiouof the United States. ’ ” [ Written for the Dispatch.] ZULEIME: A STORY FOUNDED ON FACT. —o — BY TV SIIE EMERALD. Zuleime was to be married ; a stately church was illuminated, and a fashiona ble minister waited to perform the cer emony. Zuleime was very beautiful ; her s was the warm sunny beauty of an Eastern houri-dark glancing, gleam ing eyes, curlsof shining jet, and cheeks tinged with the crimson glow of a sun set cloud. The robe of flowing satin, the rich lace, and llashingldiamonds were almost too gorgeous for a young ljl I,l ’ > but they became Zuleime well, ***' lent a strange brillancy tohei loveliness. Tlie proud triumphant smile that tiem blcd on her red lip become her too and those who saw U forgot or missed not the blushing cheeks and drooping eye that should characterize a bride. The groom was an old man , is, form was shrunken, and his face wrmk-1 led with age, but he was Mtrnuur fc| Chnwte dt Gamba, and possessed a splen-j did hotel in Paris, a chateou on the , i Seine, a gorgeous equipage, and liveried | servants. Ah ! my lady Countess you j | may wellliftup your head and smile tha., ; smile of haughty triumph, for a bngh ; and brilliant prospect lies before you : | boundless wealth will pour all the loxu-, ries of the eartli at your feet; a “ title e . I sounding charm” will greet your ear J and while these are yours the world | will lavish its sweetest smiles, and lion- j I icd words upon you,—but ah, Zuleime, j I doth no remorseful memories stirwithm j i n f vc.nr nroud heart. Do, the depths of your prouu heart. v. you not think of another bridal that J [ hive turn, had you not bartered j ■ I that which a woman should hold dear- j , | est—her truth —for rank and wealth a j bridal perchance less gorgeous in outward • «how, but where the priceless jewels of i love and truth would have sparkled j j brighter than your rich gems’ As your eye rests on your titled bride-j I groom doth not memory recall a noble j I form, and when his arms encircle you ! j jo you not remember other anus that! , clasped you in an embrace of passionate, ! i ove ? Do you not rememberone proud j (and beautiful as yourself—a child of genius, a young enthusiast who lavished | all the wild burning love of a passionate | | heart on you, his idol—do you not j I tremble, and shudder when you think of j ' the anguish that will wring his bosom when he learns your perfidy ? And : i when you wander in the bright lands j whether you are going ; when the sub j i lime mountains, and glittering glaciers of Switzerland rise before you ; when ; Italy's sweet lakes “ woo you with their 1 chrystal faces when the exquisite ; creations of her sculptors and her paint ers, and all the wondors and the glories : of classic land are spread out before you ■ —will you not think then of the artist j | soul that would have revelled in these ; of the familiar voice that would have i added the charms of eloquence to those j lof nature and of art. Ah, no, Countess j Zuleime, such memories will never visit j your cold heart, —or if you do recall the past, it wiil be with a sneer at the senti mental folly of your youth, eooooeo The Paris season was at its height ; I gayety reigned pre-eminent; there lradj been balls, routs and entertainments ofj every description and now the tenu monde was on the quivioe for the Counte de Gam- j ba’s grand soiree, which was to intro-1 ducehisjoung and beautiful wife to; the fashionable world. All Paris was dying to see the Countess,', of whose grace and beauty it had heard j such flattering reports—and now cu- . rioßity was on the eve of being gratified. | The Hotel de G-amba was a large and i imposing edifice of white marble. The j interior was finished and fitted up in a style tbit realized the mqg-nificence of; the Arabian Sights, t bn ail only at-,' tempt the description of or.e salon and that the smallest and most simply 1 furnished of the suite. The curtains that j draped the tall windows wore of blue j satin, thickly embroidered, and heavily fringed with silver ; the frame-work of the chairs, sofas, and fautenils were of ivory inlaid with silver ; the covers of! azure satin, wrought with the same| device and materials as the curtains : j the soft luxuriant carpet of rich velvet j tapestry was also blue, mingled with j white. Mirors extending from the floor J to the ceiling, and pictures of rare, beauty adorned the walls, set in frames | of frosted silver, wrought with wreaths j l of flowers. In the corners of the apart-1 i nient, on marble pedestals, were placeu I exquisite casts of four great master j pieces of sculpture. The carved man-1 | tie was ornamented with vases of porce-, lain, filled w ith gorgeous exoticks, that ! filled the salon with a subtle delicious j fragrance. This room with its gleaming lights, splendid furniture, and warm ' perfumed air was as yet unocupied; it | was early, and the expected guests had not arrived. At nine however a man entered it cautiously, like one who wished to avoid observation. He was | youthful and strikingly handsome, the sculptured god on his marble pedestal was not more perfect in feature or symmetrical in form; yet liis dress was ' | ioilfcfl and travel stained, his rich , j brown hair hung in heavy disheveled t; masses over his brow, and his eyes—oh f heaven! how fearful was the gleam of ■ those wild eyes; their azure hue waß almost lost in the fierce red fire that , burnt and flickered in them. r > He paus.fi in the centre of the apart ment and gazed around, taking in , every object slowly, with a hitter scorn ful siulle. At length his eye fell on a - picture on the wall, the portrait of a l i beautiful woman ; he approached it and t stood long, regarding it with that same terrible hitter mocking look. A slight a sound struck on his ear, a light foot , fall and the rustling of garments; he , turned hastily and disappeared through -a door leading into the conservatory at the same moment that the original of , the portrait —the Countess Zuleime on- g , tend by another. Ah! bow radiant, i how peerlessly beautiful was Zuleime. . Her robe was of rose colored velvet. - flowing back on either side in a long i train, and revealing tin under dress of ! white satin. She had diamonds on her + : brow. or. her bosom, on her bare nrins, in the clasps Os her girdle, and in the i rosettes of her tiny slippers; at e\ cry ■! movement they dazzled, the beholder j with their gleaming and as she walked, ! left a stream of radiance behind her. , jlO *!E CONOLfLTD.] ?

Mr. Brown replied, and at length ri- I (lieulcd the idea of presenting a medal ' to Commodore Paulding. He oonten- | ded that Walker’s expedition was not unlawful.
