There was a densely crowded house at Concert Hall last night, consisting of many of our most cultivated and sash ionahle people, to hear Mr. Burton, in his delineations of Aminadab Sleek and I Toadies, The great comedian was very j creditably sustained, and tiie perform-i ance went off with immense enthusiasm, j It was an entertainment for which our j citizens feel grateful to Mr. Maiictiant, and we trust that he will be induced to! give us further opportunities to attest the appreciation in Augtflß for substan tial attractions. * «•♦-. Mount Vernon. Our friend, Mr. Wx. 1. Eve. as well j fras his accomplished lady, will pardon us for attributing to him, in our yester day’s paper, honors which only grace the brow of woman, by making him Vice Regent of the Mount Vernon As sociation. tsf course it was a typograph ical error—hut the types ought to have known that none hut woman is worthy to wear the laurels won in that noble cause. Mrs. Eye will bo entitled to the highest consideration by ail who revere the name of Washington, and her name will go down to posterity with those few noble spirits who have devoted their energies to the work of securing his home and grave from the hands of speculation, and setting it apart as a national Mecca. We are glad to perceive that she has succeeded in arousing a noble emulation in behalf of the cause among our citizen soldiery and firemen. When they unite in be half of any cause, it is hound to pros per. We perceive that Miss Cunning ham has just paid over to Mr. Wash ington the first instalment of 807,000, and funds for the second payment are accumulating in the hands of the Vice Regents throughout the country. .—.

How ard, in front of store to-morrow morn ing. Close of tiie Legislature. Our correspondent having failed to send us the proceedings of the closing session of the Senate we copy from the Savannah Republican, a condensed state-! merit of the discussion on the bank bill,j and the concluding incidents of the ses-j sion. The House hill to compel the banks j to comply with the Act of 1857 in ms-1 king their semi-annnal returns to the Governor, and to privide an additional penalty for all future violation of the same, was taken up and read. Mr. Gibson raised a point of order, and maintained that the subject matter of the House bill had already been re jected by the Senate in its vote in oppo sition to Mr. Tucker’s hill, and the adoption of Mr. Stubb’s amendment. Mr. Stiles urged the point of order. Tiie delinquency charged, and the penalty imposed, were the same in Mr. Tucker's bill and the bill of the House j now under consideration. It was there-1 fore not competent for the Senato to en tertain the latter. Mr. Slaughter, held that the two! hills were identical. The two bills were read and the ob jectors to the motion confounded. Mr. Slaughter, being driven from his first position, fell back upon another, even more untenable. He insisted that the adoption of Mr. Stubb’s substitute for Mr. Tucker'B bill, did .not amount to a rejection of the latter. Mr. Stiles replied that the bills had 1 been read and they were clearlyidentical. Tiie constitution and the rules had also been read and their meaning was clear. The Chair decided that the adoption of a substitute did not amount to a re- j jection of the original. Mr. Stiles appealed from the decision of the Chair. Mr. Gibson addressed the Senate warmly on the subject and appealed to gentlemen, whatever might be their hostility to banks, not to wage war up on them by a violation of the Rules of tiie Senate, the law and the Consti tution. Mr. Stubbs thought it coqld ho per fectly plain that the decision of the chair was wrong. Mr. Slaughter said this was an impor- I tant act of legislation, and should uot s he defeated by a mere technical rule. ‘ | The people had declared, by an over- ' whelming majority, that "the banks were standing out in defiance of all law, and Senators should not dare to go home to their constituents and tell them they had done nothing to punish the outrage. Mr. Billups—The question before the Senate was simply whether the adop | tion of a substitute amounts to a rejec ! Hon of tiie original, as contemplated jby the rule. He thought it clearly was. | Mr. Williams, of Terrell, took the j same view of Mr. Slaughter. Air. Colquit should vote against the bill of the House whenever it might come up, but it was clear to him that the decision of the Chair was right. The yeas and nays were called upon, sustaining the decision of the chair, ; and resulted : yeas 48, nays 30. Mr. Harris, of Worth, then called I the previous question upon agreeing to ■the report of the committee, the effect jof which was to cut off debate and j amendments. The yeas and nays were called for by Mr. Gibson, and resulted : yeas 40 ; nays 23. On the question “shall the main , question be now put r ’ the yeas and nays were required and being taken, it appeared that no quorum voted. The roii was then called, when it ap peared that a quorum was present. Mr. Slaughter got the floor and went into a long and indignant tirade against the banks. | Mr. Stubbs replied in aspirited speech. Mr. Gibson claimed the, right to re ply to the Senator fro* Dougherty, , "ho had made some unauthorised allu- I sions to himself. Mr. Slaughter withdrew his motion in order to remove the ground of debate ; and thereby prevent a reply from Mr. Gibson. Mr. Pope renewed the motion, and 1 i Mr. Gibson replied. The motion of the > ■ friends of the Banks had been alluded .1 to and condemned Those motions , j were legitimate and they were driven t to make them by the attempt to gag the M opponents of the bill and crush our dis | mission by a call of the previous qnes -1 tion. The very brute had the light to ■ j complain when he was trampled upon. , | Not content with the previous question, , | they had actually moved to shut up i and imprison Senators and deny them ' the right of locomotion. Was such an > outrage ever before attempted upon i freemen ? Some sharp words occurred , between tiie Senators from Richmond and Dougherty. ' Various motions were made to ad -1 journ, but ruled out. 1 The previous question was called on t' a motion to agree to the report of the . j Committee on the bill. Sustained: yeas, , 57; nays 20. Mr. Stiles desired to know if there ‘ was not a rule that required the Senate ■ to adjourn at 9 1-2 o'clock, and if so by - what authority had that rule been set . aside without a vote of two-thirds? The chair said no motion to adjourn had been made. Mr. Hill, of Sumter, said he had made , the motion a half dozen times, but the 1 Chair would take no notice of him, and J had once ruled him out of order. Mr. Stiles then said, with great ex citement : Then, sir, there is no rule to keep me here and I shall leave the i Chamber. Mr. Stiles and some other t opponents of the bill then retired. The bill was put upon its passage, j and the yeas and nays being called, re sulted : yeas 56, nays, 13. The scene from beginning to end was . among the most excited that ever oc . curred in the Legislature of Georgia, and at one time it appeared that it was ; impossible to quell the strife. I learn - that Gov. Brown had, already, his pro clamation calling the Legislature to gether Monday morning if the bill should fail. : Various complimentary resolutions ■ were passed, and the officers responded 1 to calls. Stiles, Billups, Tucker and Hill, of Sumpter, also responded hand somely to calls upon them. Both houses 1 contiuued in session, enrolling and signing bills until 2 1-2 o’clock Sunday : morning, at which time they adjourned I sine die. Sonora and Chilluairua. The Washington Union gives a graph s ic picture of the resources of SonoTa, . over which and Chihuahua, the Presi dent recommends thatthoUnitedStates ’ should assume a temporary protecto rate, iti reprisal for outrages upon Amer ican citizens, and upon principles of self-preservation, anil of humanity to the people of these frontier States. Son ora contains fifteen millions of acres of land, and a population of 120,000, in cluding Indians. The Union says it is, beyond ail doubt, the richest mineral ' region in the known world, blessed with a fine climate, and in the valleys the richest soil. Sugar, cotton, wheat, corn peas, beaus, are the fruits grown in a | luxuriousness and profusion unknown . even in our Southern possessions. It is no doubt a very fine country, j but it has been the curse of our coun try, that the phantoms of wealth and luxury are always teeming in some re gion a little further West. Like the ap ples of Tantalus, they are too apt to elude the grasp after all, and we may as well content ourselves in governing and civilizing the barbarians that haunt the possessions we already possess to ward the setting sun, before we under take to add to our domain in that direction. We want no more territory to be appropriated to Indians and free labor. Col. Burns and his brother Willie were guests at a dinner party given by Consul Beverly Tucker at Liverpool on the 22d Oct. The Colonel (writes one who was present) seems quite infirm, although only sixty four years of age; i his hair is white as snow, and his hand ! trembles very much. He spoke of his father, of his mother, of Scotland; ; had lived in India nearly thirty years, never during that time having had a ; day's sickness. He talks of and sings his father’s songs. He sang the air | which Robert Burns wrote to his motli ; er, a very sweet thing, and “John An derson my Joe.” j Mr. Charles Lanman has resigned his place in the Department of the Interior ■ in order to devote his whole attention to the publication of his “Dictionary of Congress.” . Dibed.—The Grand Jury of Williams burg, Va., found an indictment for libel against tiie editor of the Williams burg Gazette, because he had published a card, over a responsible signature, and paid for as an advertisement, which re lated to a citizen of that place. The judge dismissed the case, says the Nor fold Examiner, as unworthy the atten ' tion of the court. Roger.!. Pryor, Esq., is to be pre-j sented with a service of plate for Ids! energetic action at the Virginia ccnven- j tion. Bishop Fitzpatrick confirmed nearly j four hundred persons at Saxonville, on Thursday last. Mrs. Fanny Kemble Butler has con sented to give a reading in Baltimore on Monday, the 20th instant, for the “Home of the Friendless.” Two sloops of war (yet unnamed) are being built at Philadeiphia, and one is nearly ready for launching. The board of.education of Marietta! school district, Marshall county. lowa.; have declared that no girls who wear | hoops shall be admitted into the school j of that listrict. A resolution has been introduced into ; the Georgia Legislature to prevent the circulation in that State of the pamph let concerning the Brownlow and Pryne slavery discussion, 011 the ground that it is a dangerous document for the slave population to get hold of. A wise measure.—TV. O. l'ieayune. Mr. M. F. Richland died in Miller County on Thursday last, of an injury inflicted on his person on the Ist inst.. by .one Daniel Pickren, who has fled to parts unknown. The deceased was drunk at the time of the affray. TilK OCEAN STEAMERS. Hailing Days to ant from the United States. FROM EUROPE.
