Special Correspndence of the Dispatch. ■ Miii.f.dokvilt.e, Ga., I K November 9th, 1858. | Friend A. i —The question of the ie moval of the Penitentiary, came up in the House of Representatives to day, and elicited quite a spicy discussion ' from Messrs. Diamond and Kenan. This is an important question, and one which should be properly considered. We are decidedly in favor of removal. It mat ters but little where it be moved, so that the convicts can find work to do. Under the present managem nt, there is not more than half work performed I by the convicts. You may visit the 1 prison at any hour in the day, and you i will find fully as many loafers idliug L as you will in any of our country villa ges. We are no advocate of barbarity or inhuman treatment of convicts, but we do hold that they should, in compli ance with the sentences of the Court, be kept at regular labor. We doubt not I that the condition of many of the con victs is really move desirable to them than to be forced to labor for themselves and families, for we suspect that they perform less work now than when free. Better to abolish the Penitentiary than to suffer such a state of things to exist longer, lteform is loudly called for, and we"think that thiSiLegislature will fail of having performed its duty, if it I should refuse to remove this institution | to some more favorable location. , There will be a cotillon party given i to-night, at Newell’s, by K. A. and S. „ M. Combs. Being the recipient of a polite invitation, I shall be on hand, the thoughts of which impels me to dc si :t from writing further. Yours, CAi.uor.N-. Mn.!.EnOEVii.i,K. Ga., ) Nov. 10th 1858. f Friend A.—The great question of the f Senate to day was, the Bill allowing (bail privilege to slaves, and free per sons of color who, are or may hereafter he arrested for violation of the crimi nal law. Mr: Harris of Merriwether, E moved an amendment of the bill, by making it prospeetive in its action, which elicited a spirited discussion from Hill of Harris, Harris of Mcrri wether, Peynolds, Slaughter, Tucker, f .Spalding and Williams of Terrel. The ■ amendment was then lost by the fol- I lowing vote :—Ayes 44—Nays 58. A feature of this bill enables the attor- I J neys defending such slaves or free per r gons of color to hold a lien upon them until their fees are paid, which lien is to [ have precedence over all other liens. '• ’ This * feature furnished considerable ground for discussion, which at one time waxed warn. Upon the motion of Mr. Slaughter, tiiis objectionable fea ture was stricken out. After which j several amendments were offered to the i bill, and it referred for reconstruction j to a special committee of three. We j think that this is a good hill. There j is no class of citizens that labor under ; greater disadvantages than negroes. A man who owns slaves may have malic t ious enemies who upon the mere sus- | picion of a violation of the law by said j slaves, may commence a prosecution against them. The result is that if a prima facie case of crime be only made out, the negro is incarcerated in the county jail, there to probably re main for months, and the owner be thereby deprived of the services of his negro all the while. This is neither just or equ' table. A B«f county bill was passed by the Senate to day—said county is formed out of Lowndes and Thomas—to be called Brooks after the late gallant Representative from the Palmetto State. A just tribute to one of the bravest spirits of his day—the court house to be called Quitman, after one whose memory is embalmed in the affections . of his countrymen. As much as we : are opposed to the indiscriminate for- j mation of new counties, we are in favor ] of this new county Its territory is ample, has a fine population, pays a tax on about 3 millions of dollars. Anoth er new county bill, formed from Walk * er, Chatooga, and Catoosa —elicited i quite a personal controversy from the Senators of those counties, upon the height of Taylor’s ridge, whicli left the whole subject as dear as mud. This dis- : cussion was mostly confined to Cherokee Georgia, and afforded much merriment. This new county fell still barn —vote — Ayes 40, Noes G7. So one new county hill has been lost. Hon. W. H. Stiles delivers a speech ' to-night in the House of Representa tives onGeneral Politics. Calhoun. 'And where was the man stabbed, Bit V asked an excited man of a physi-1 cian. ‘The man was stabbed about an inch and a half to the left of the median line, and about an inch above the um bilicus,’ was the reply. ‘Oh, yes; I understand now. But I thought it was near the Court House.’ — It is stated in Hie English papers.tbat i more widows married within the last six months, in England and Ireland than within the previous six years. i Mount Washington is now covered with a coat of snow, which scorns deep enough to resist the influence of the sun ', for the coming six months.

As I look from the isle, o’er its billows of green, To the billows of foam-crested blue, Yon bark, that nfnr in the distance is seen, Half dreaming, my eyes will pursue; Now dark in the shadow, she scatters the spray As the cball in the stroke of the flail; Now white as the sea-gull, she flies on her way, The sun gleaming bright on her sail. Yet her pilot is thinking of danger to shun— -01 breakers that whiten and roar ; How little he cares, if in shadow or sun, Tney see him that gaze from the shore ! He looks to the beacon that looms from the reef, To the rock that is under the lee As he drifts on the blast, like a wind-wafted leaf, O’er the gulfe of the desolate sea. Tfius drifting afar to tho dim ."vaulted caves Where life and its ventures are laid, The dreamers who gaze while wo battle the May see us m sunshine or shade ; [waves, Yet true to our course, though our shadow grow We’ll trim our broad sail as before, [dark, And stand by the rudder that governs the hark, Nor ask how we look from the shore. An exchange tells the story of a preacher who observed that it is a stri king proof of the wisdom and benevo lence of Providence, that death was placed at the end of life—thus giving time to make the necessary prepara tion for that event. This calls to mind the profound remarks of the philoso pher, who admired the arrangement of placing Sunday at the end of the week instead of the middle, which -would make a broken week of it! This is equal to the philosopher who remarked that it was a wise provision of Providence, that large rivers always rnn near large towns. The Jew’s Hospital in New York.— This hospital was opened on the Bth of June, 1855, since which date, seven hundred and forty-seven patients have been admitted, of which six hundred and seventy-four have been treated gratuitously. The benefits of the insti- . tution have been enjoyed by the sick and unfortunate of all creeds and of all ! nations, without any aid from the State j or municipal governments. A Great Artesian Well —An arte- j sian well, lately opened at Bourn, Eng land, sends the water twenty-five feet | j above the surface, and discharges three ; i hundred and sixty gallons per minute, | or twenty-one thousand six hundred in j one hour. It feeds three mills, and is ' said to he the greatest well of the kind | in the world, except the celebrated one i at Paris. The one was noticed on the 1 twentieth of the month as made at Louisville, sends an inch stream sixty I feet high, gives two hundred and twen ty-five gallons a minute, or three hun dred and twenty-four gallons per day. ! Excitement at Louisville.—The trial j of Gilmore, at Louisville. Ky.. for kill- ' Coulter, a police officer, terminated on j ! Wednesday in his acquittal. As soon las the verdict was annonnced,Mrs.Coul | ter sprang out of her seat and rushed j I towards towards Gilmore with some-! j thing in her hand, which was supposed j to be a knife. This affair caused tie- i mendous excitement. Among the vows that a man has to j make in Japan when he is married, is I one that he will find plenty of tea and rice for his wife during her life. •.*.« In the town of Crockett, Texas, it is said there is not a marriageblc female. Two hundred guns were fired in Phil adelphia on Saturday, in honor of the triumph of the opposition to the Ad ministration. .-o. Ihe city of Selma,Ala., is to be light ed with gas.
