(fktttng pisjntfcfj AUGUSTA. GA: Saturday Evening, Mny ‘W, IHSN. GeorglnandCarotlna Banks. The late discussions in reference to the relative condition of the hanks of Georgia and Carolina, will render the following comparative statement of their specie circulation at the time of suspension, of general interest. In a short time we hope to present a similar statement, based on their condition at the time of their resumption : •ft * ■a*wooot*«»«wHis>so»o o :lJ33;lXOX«*.ri*Cl«OnfO I vt't-t-t-'iit-Mof?'i;oior-o)®i i c i S « T3O O *T l-OJM X *1 o <—■" HvOCt**" Tl *' W O w ~*' oT •f* * -* 3 S II "t d M “ 2 t' ® 9 O t- •f el ;l * O tl - “ s«H*o!rMOi>o-fiSoio =C; - k 505 c*« ->_x io j•;atit :i x o < s n io" o«c aV® o' *omio t* "" s JsSSKf.SSW'-SSsHs'^S < .•* .. . .. . . ™a; r : : 5 • * ■ * a a * ; • q, • • • 5 : ::: :: : p =:: : : S : : : = K ,g« 3 :: : :-g ■ : <*s .: \ \'g \: \ : ; : :£■* .3 ■ ■ J: ; -£| 'a i : = fc # - • a et - “ ' f g*i •*.=: .1 i 5* 3 : e g %a*-t 57 =?; ;J 7£ J 5 ; * il S^'"' S ® ® Htx, *#»■ rlHr«n-HHH 0C 3325555233*2 0000 «o«»?it"rr3i*>s‘i!teco>oeeCiaF-i I- I- *» *t :l X ~ -T 1- 7t 71 O « Q o 7.

It will be seen by reference to our * commercial department, that receipts! of produce at this market are gradually | * falling off. Stocks of bacon and flour ‘ are very heavy. 1 c Southern Pacific Railroad. | It seems that this magnificent bubble , has collapsed. At a late meeting of the stockholders in New Orleans, to take ] into consideration the affairs of the , company, it was stated that the whole , stock, amounting to $318,000 “was not , worth a chew of tobacca.” All the speakers exonerated Mr. Yeroer, the President of the company, but charge Wall street with the impos ture. It was stated that the project was got up by Rouert J. Walker, at Niblo’s Garden, in New York, and the first day the books were opened, he took . $10,000,000 of stock, and Mr. Joel G. j Sever took $5,000,000 ; they then wentj home to dinner, got drunk, and then] went back and subscribed for further similar amounts. Editors were induced to blow for the concern by pledges of stock, and largo subscriptions were thus obtained.— What ever became of the money is not yet satisfactorily determined. Georgia Items. The revival in Columbus still contin ues without abatement in interest. The Supreme Court at its late session, settled the Constitutional question as to the right of the present members of the Legislature of Georgia, holding their seats until the expiration of the next session. By this decision, the mem bers of the last session will retain their seats for another term. A likely negro boy, some 7 or 8 years old, belonging to Dr. Calhoun, of New nan, was killed a few days since by fall-! ing from a tree. nr The Catholics are about to erct a Church in Federicksburg, Va. w~ Miss Davis, of Loudoun county Virginia, shot at a Mr. Pope the other day for alleged slanderous language.— The ball passed through his clothes. ([if The Journal of Comtnerce says a steamship company has been organized under the name of “Northern German Lloyd” in Germany, to establish a re gular line of steamships to run between New York and Bremen. Crops lu Tennessee. The Cleveland Banner of the 20th inst., says : Although early in the season thej wheat crop promised an abundant yield now, we are sorry to say, it is not so promising. We have been traveling for fivo weeks in lower East Tennesse, and last week across to Nashville, and from the observations made, we are satisfied that the crop will not be more than a half one. It looks yeilow, spindling, and is very low, caused by the late cold weather and the fly. The corn and oat crops also look bad, but they have suffi cient time to eomc out; the wheat crop ts too far advanced, and will be a fail ure, to a great extent, in this section. • I Special Correspondence of the Dirpakh. Washington Travel*-Steamboat* Hotel* Ladles Congressmen, and ( General Gossip. i Well, Washington City is the place, say what you please. With a little in clination, one can catch a glimpse of the panorama of the world at large. j Here the tributaries of a thousand f places, on land and sea, pour into the e lap of our great Metropolis, everything f that is calculated to challenge the at f tention of the traveler. 1 After leaving the beautiful city of r I Augusta, with its rows of trees of wav ! ing green, its fragrant flowers, its love |ly women and gallant men; the cars | bore us rapidly on to Brancliville. As- I ter stumbling and groping about, for j “twas near the midnight hour,” we | transferred ourself to the Kingsville ; cars. The road from Brancliville to Kings ville forms the most uninteresting part j of the travel northward from Augusta, i Touching at Wilmington, Weldon and the various transit points, we got to i Acqua Creek. From this spot the expe rienced traveler knows how well it is to keep his weather-eye open. Extortion ; j begins from the time you put your foot I i on the boat, until it bears you back I again to the soil of Old Virginia. A quarter, if you speak to a servant, and oceenty-five cents for dinner, four quarters for the use of a thing big enough to turn round in, called a state room, three hours time, form part of the bill of fare on board; but they serve up a good dinner, and you find the cap tain a clever fellow. We pass on quickly over the waters of the Potomac. Yonder are the sa cred shades of Vernon—the bell tolls the solemn sound again ; a moment and the gay, laughing, boisterous company, on the upper deck, are hushed in rever ential silence. How grateful, how pro foundly beautiful, this sad salute of honor. Here no creed or faith is known or required; iu the unostentatious sim plicity of truth, the hearts of all pay i the glad homage to exalted worth. ■ Washington, at this season of the I year, is certainly- a delightful and desir- i able place. Its public squares ; green s parks ; sparkling waters ; lovely girls 1 on the promenade, are attractions to ( the stranger. ’ We attended, in company with a t friend, at the President's grounds, the t first musical exhibition of the season, 8 for the entertaiment of the citizens, by r the Baud of the Marine Batalion.— I Congress has very properly granted ex- c tra pay to this fine corps of musicians f for this service. They number thirty t odd, and perform twice a week, alter nating at the President's grounds and c the Capitol. Hundreds of both sexes f were out in full fashion, old and young, c gay and grave. Congress was well rep- i resented on these enchanting grounds. 1 We saw the Cabinet personated in Mr. i Cobb, whose characteristic urbanity was i plainly to be seen while returning the t hows of the numerous friends that sur- < rounded him on every side. Mr. Cobb, i I learn, is very much esteemed here, 1 and, perhaps, is the most powerful man 1 in the Cabinet. May his shadow never grow less. Mr. Buchanan spent his time with ] j the young ladies on the walks, be- 1 ; neath the shade trees that form a cir | cle directly opposite the poetic Potomac. I Among the ladies, conspicious, was | Miss Lane, the handsome nice of the j President. She is universally and de- I servedly popular, being one of the most sensible and accomplished women in the American Metropolis. Miss Cushman has heen delighting the people here. The other night she : appeared in the character of Mej Mer- i rilies —one must see her as she peforms < this part, to understand the reputation she has won as the Gipty Queen. The stock company is like the building, a very poor affair, the audience the most brilliant of the capital. In looking round we saw Messrs. A. H. Stephens and Crawford, of Georgia, in the pit, Senator Seward, of New York. Mr. Senator Dougins and lady, occupied a side box. Mrs. D. disappointed us agreeably, she is certainly very liand j some, and dresses in simple but excel- I lent taste ; like Miss Lane, she under- I stands practicing good sense in every thing. What a contrast between these j ornaments of the first class ladies of 1 the land, and the swelled proportions of the moving pyramids of dry goods and the mock glory of some of their inferiors. Georgia need well be pround of her . delegation in Congress—she is well ap ; predated at the capitol through them. The position and labors of Mr. Stephens, | in all the late trying and important events at the capitol, have placed hi nr prominently in the foreground of tlm nation ; his strength, power and ability, as the great Legislator, is well under stood by his opponents. He is known as the leader of the Administration side j of the House. > i Governor Quitman is in feeble heal! h, 1 anc ' l heard that he remarked, that se , venteen persons had died of the Na i; tional Hotel disease, and he expected 1 to be the eighteenth. Gov. Q. is too j valuable a man for the country to lose, t and we sincerely trust he may be re " stored again to his health. - Gov. Hammond, of South Carolina, is one of the most conspicuous men in the Senate, his reputation as a ripe scholar, a profound logician, and great legisla tive ability—is universal. Carolina hon ored herself in sending him to the Sen ate. Mr. Miles, the young and hand some bachelor Representative from the Charleston District, is quite popular in i Washington. Gen. Bonham, the suc ' cessor of the lamented Brooks, was ; pointed out to us as one of the distin guished in the House. He was Colonel of the twelvth Regiment Infantry in f the Mexican War. He is remembered -by those who knew him there, for every • quality that distinguishes pei6onal s worth and superior mental endowments. ■ He is the true type of a chivalric man. r He, with his talented and gallant col e league, Mr. Miles, seem to be rising L ' men; they have won reputations in Washington, as well for their marked ' ability, as their untiring devotion to 4 the interests of their gallant State. Mr. Otero, the delegate from New 4 Mexico, is a Spanish Mexican, an ac -3 complished gentleman and debater. He was educated in the United States. Du -3 ring discussions on territorial questions, 1 involving the interests, to some degree, t of New Mexico, he evinced great zeal 1 in battling for her lights. That dis 1 tant Territory is well represented in the 1 person of Mr Otero. There is much talk here, even at this time, as to who will be the next Presi dent, or rather nominee of the Demo cratic party, which is the same thing. Slidell, Lane, Toombs, Cobb, llrecken ridge, Wise, Hunter, Orr, Douglas, and many others, are variously mentioned in this connection. Another report has it our distinguished Senator, Mr. Toombs, i positively refuses to be a candidate, i This is also said of Gov. Cobb. Gen. j Lane, the delegate from Oregon, and, 1 by the bye, one of the most remarkable | men of the times, is talked of by those, for the Presidency, who seldom express their opinions prematurely, and who have the power when they do move.— Gen. L., you remember,was the Marion of the Mexican war, where he won proud laurels. He has heen compared, not unaptly, to Gen. Jackson. He has all the elements of a strong, powerful, j practical mind, and sure enough an An drew Jackson method of doing business, j We heard him in an off-hand effort in i the House yesterday, while territorial j matters were up. He is a vigorous rea- j soner, coming to the gist of the argu- | ment at once. He is a man that pre- j ' possesses every one in his favor that | comes in contact with him. His chances j for the White House, so far, seem bet ter than any yet spoken of. Willard’s Hotel is crammed; it is a first : - class House; two dollars and seventy- ® five cents per day for board; it has o courteous book-keepers and assistants o in the office, who will treat you well.— T The Avenue House, a new establish- f ment, kept by Mr. J. K. King, perhaps is as desirable to stay at as anywhere in the city, on account of the charges, its central situation to all places of public interest, and above all, the unceasing attention of its courteous proprietor to the comfort of his guests. Give him a trial when you come on. We heard great complaints by the i passengers, of the Conductor, Mr. Ryan, on the road from Branchville to Kings- i ville. Had not quiet counsel heen sug- > gested, some of the passengers were de- : termined to vent a mark of their resent- ■ ment upon him. His uncivil deport- : ment and contemptuous manner of ] treating passengers, we learn, is quite notorious. We wonder the proper of- U ficors do not sec to this matter. From Kingsville to Branchville, I learn, du- ■ ring one of the hottest days of the sea son, very recently, he carried a locked " coach along, and though politely solie- j ited, refused to open it until within a | few miles of Branchville. The cars be-! - ing much crowded, the passengers were very indignant. These are facts, as I many of the passengers gave their ad dresses to the writer of this,'.to prove j even more if necessary. We hope Mr.; 1 Caldwell will see to the matter. How j different the rudeness and impoliteness of ! this man to the courteous agent, Mr. \ Fowler, on the same train. The other ; roads in South Carolina have polite and efficient officers. Mr. Crock, on the ] road from Kingsville to Wilmington, is ! universally popular, I will close this, as I shall write you soon again. Yours, &c., Cambridge. —* Horrid Murder. DavidS. Lewis murdered Wells C. Dewier, his wife’s father near Searcy, White county, on the Bth inst., in the ' most shocking and brutal manner. The parties were moving to Texas, with their : families, and the bloody deed was com mitted at their camp, leaving the fami ly women and children totally unpro tected. Lewis made his escape. He is ahou; twenty-two years of age, has blue iiifeS and weighsabout 135 pounds. His height is about five feet eight or ten inches. He wore a brown cloth coat, a low-crowned black hat. He is a little . lame from a hurt on his foot. They , were all from Gordon county, Georgia. Des Arc Citizen. The] Turks. —Mohammed Pacha has decided not to return to Constantinople ■ for the present, but Hassin Bey, of his . suit, will leave by one of the Liverpool I steamers this week, with a dispatch from the admiral to the Ottoman gov > ernment, reporting the progress of his , negotiations in the ship building busi ness. »<♦■» A cloud upon the soul darkens the 5 world more than a cloud in the firma ; ment.
