By the President: Lewis Cass, Secretary of State. no other language, with which to characterize | snch a decision, than to denounce it as a gross act of judicial wrong. The people of Georgia will not, and ought not to submit to sueli an ad- ! ministration of injustice. To concede a corpora- ! tion sueli a privilege would be the most unmiti gated outrage ever perpetrated under the name of law, in any country. We hope when tlie decision comes to be written out in full; aud we under stand it better, we shall be able to think differ ently in-reference to it. We have heard tlie Court spoken of in very harsh terms, publicly, for this opinion, but a suspension of judgment should be given until its merits can be better knosvn.—.4/- luiita Intcl'iarncer. The Supreme Court. In another column we publish the recent decis ion of tho Supreme Court as referred to by tliti Macon Telgraph With tlie accompanying re marks of that journal we coincide. The last re marks, however, if true, (and we take it for grant ed tiiat it is,) surprises us. Tlie Telegraph says; ‘•Tlieslecision in tliis changes the judgment of the Court as rendered when Judges Warner and Nisbet (Starnes) were on the Bench, when tiie same question came before them iu a similar ease ■So we go! Old tiie glorious uncertainty ot the j law.” j When this Court was established we thought j that a point once decided by it was finally deei ded—put to rest forever. From the above, it would appear tiiat a change of men is a change of law; that the decisions of one set of Judges may and will be overruled and reversed by a suc ceeding set. Our simplicity is betrayed in tiiat we thought when a legal point bad been ones de termined by the Court, that point would never mon go up. The d-csion now made, however—in' fact, tiie very entertainment of the appeal—shows tiiat we were wrong. If tliis Court ran reverse decisions of a former, a future Court can and may reverse the decisions of tills. If tliis lie so, of wlmt value is the Court! Are we any more certain as to what is law than we ut convention, iii duplicate, und I w ere before it was instituted? We thought tlie Court was to decide what the law was in certain case, of doubt. We knew of no other use for such a Court. When its decisions vary or con flict, it is entitled to no more respect, to no more confidence—than tiie lower Courts. If tliis case is a fair sample of the reliability of tiie decisions of the Court—an index to its ralar—we feel compelled to regard it as an un mitigated humbug, which should not be longer tolerated. The right of parties litigant are quite as uncertain as before, and the Court fails to af ford the Judges on tlie Bench of tlie lower Courts that guidance which it was the design it should. If it fails in this, which we thought its main de- s'gn, it does not pei form its office, and should ifi abolish'-d, and the money wasted on it spent more usefully.—National American.

Bonning was a candidate for the Supreme Court Judgeship, the objection was urged against hint that having acted as attorney in the Columbus Bank cases, parties interested in those corrupt and rotten swindles were parking his claims because they believed he would decide all points in favor of the stockholders of these cotrupt institutions It is said that in order to secure his election, he promised not to sit in any of those cases In which lie had been employed as conns.!. At the late Macon term of the Supreme Court a ease involving the same principles came up—whereupon Col. Win.

Origin of Brandy.—Brandy began to be distilled In France about the year Villi, but it w as pre pared only as a medicine, anil was considered as po-sessing such marvellous stu ngihoning and sanitary powers that the physicians named it “the water of life” (l euu de ric), a name it still retains, though now rendered, by excessive portions, one of life's most powerful and prevalent destroyers.— Raymond Lully, a disciple of Arnold de Villa Nova, consult-; ed this admirable essence ui wine to be an emanation from the Divinity, and that it was intended to reanimate and prolong the life of man. He even thought that this discovery indicated that the time had arrived for the consum mation of all things—the end ot the world. Before the means of determining the true quantity of alcohol in spirits were known, the dealers were in the habit of employing a very rude method of forming a notion of the strength. A given quan tity of the spirits was poured upon a quantity of gunpowder in a dish and set on fire. If at the end of the combustion the gunpowder continued dry enough, it exploded, hut if it had been wetted by the water in the spirits, the flame of the alcohol went cut without setting the powder on fir.-.— This was called the proof. Spirits which kindled gunpowder were said to be above proof. From the origin of the tern) “proof,” it is obvi ous that its meaning must at first have been very indefinite. It could serve only to point out those spirits which are too weak to kindle gunpowder, but could not give any information respecting the relative strength of those spirits which were above proof. Even the strength ol proof was not fixed, because it was influenced by the quantity of spirits employed—a small quantity of weaker spirits might be made to kindle gunpowder, while a greater quantity of a stronger might fail. Clarke, iu his hydrometer, which was invented about the year 17 JO, fitted the strength of proof spirits on the stem at the specific gravity of 0,920 at the temper ature of 60 degrees. This is the strength at which proof spirits is fixed in Great Britain by act of Parliament, and at this strength it is no more than a mixture of 49 pounds of pure alcohol, with 51 pounds of water. Brandy, rum, gin; and whisky contain nearly similar proportions.—Scientific American.

We suppose the above announcement has been instigated by the recent decision of the Supreme Court at Macon in regard to the liability of stock holders for the debts of a Bank after the charter has expired. We hope, however, that no such remedy will be adopted by the people. We can not see any benefit to arrive from the abolition of the Supreme Court. If their opinions are such as to cause them to forfeit the confidence of the peo ple, there is another course that may be adopted. We have no doubt that the decision referred to, will cause intense indignation wherever it is know n among all right-thinking men. Whatever may he the h gal defence it is capable of having, it can have no equitable or just defence. It is lit tle short of a public outrage, perpetrated in the name of law,and under its sacred panoply. But because of such a decision we do not desire to see the Court abolished. What is needed is a Court whosejdeci ions will be uniform, legal, equit able arid right. Let us have that.—Atlanta Intel ligencer. From the N. Y. Herald. Will Hie Atlantic Telegraph Fay. Now that all uncertainty as to the effectual laying of the submarine telegraph is dispelled, the next great question asked on all sides is: Can it be operated with so much rapidity as to make it a paying institution? So far as experi ments have gone that problem stili remains un solved But the difficulties that have been al ready overcome give assurance that whatever present difficulties may present themselves to the. instantaneous transmission of messages from con tinent to continent, they will be in like manner successfully grapped with and overcome. Wliih- the cable that, was discharged from the Niagara and Agamemnon after the tailure of the first attempt w as laying at Kcyharn, an expensive series of experiments _ was tried to ascertain the velocity with wliich words could be transmitted through it. These experiments were conducted by Mr. Whileliousc, tho electrician ofthe com pany, at tin expense, we believe, of some .‘§10(1,- OUU. The result was not very encouraging to tbe prospects of the company. It appeared that but seventeen words in eigh teen minutes—or, say a word a minute—could be effectually transmitted. By the application, how ever, of Hughes’ instrument, that rate of trans mission was quadrupled. Subsequently, accord- ir-e- to a report then published in the London Tiiucs, Mr. Whitehouse succeeded in sending five words per minute, through miles of cable, and expected that eight words could be transmit ted with ease and certainty. Whether tho result so stated to have been attained, or that expected to be attained, was or w ill be actually realized, is somewhat doubtful. We incline to the belief tiiat there has been considerable exaggeration in dulged in, somewhere, in regard to these experi ments. We do not think that Mr. Whitehouse ever succeeded in sending five-words per minute through tlie cable at Kevham ; and it is a ques tion whether the submersion of the cable at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean will expedite or re Vspinwall, took among the passengers a party of scientific gentlemen, w-lio are bound to l’sru to make observations of tho great solar eclipse in September; they go out under the auspices of the Fmithsonian Institution, and are furnished with a fn e passage by the 1 nited States Mail steamship, the Panama Railroad, and the (British) I'.-n itic Steam Navigation Companies.

Mr. Bradley, the proprietor of the Ancestor Saw Mills, while at work, was ‘caught in the breast by a circular saw and ins tantly cut. through the body. His liver was torn out and thrown some twenty feet across the mill. A most extraordinary circumstance connected with this affair was that the accident to the parties in whose word we have implicit confidence, was witnessed "by a large number of tlie unfortunate man's neighbors who were present at the time, and who have been in the habit of congregating in the mill to witness the operations of the saw. After he had been cut through the body he arose from the floor on which he had alien, and, lifting a portion of his intestines—which with other parts of his mangled body, lay sintered | around—walked forward with it several feet, when j he sat down and expired, without having uttered a word from the moment he received his fatal wounds.

Assuming that the | « better cncuinstances, and could not bear to he line was* kept constantly operated for the who twenty four hours of a day, and that the tariff of prices was a dollar per word, charging for address, date, Ac., the gross receipts would only amount to $1,44" per day, or a little over half a million a year. But as it would uot be likely to do more than half that amount of business, the receipts would probably reach no higher than a quarter of n million a year, which would leave only some $70,000 above the interest of the capital invested to go toward salaries, expenses, wear and tear, &c. 8o that at that rate of transmission aud that tariff the line would be very far from proving remu iterative to its stockholders. If, however, by the use of the Hughes or some other instrument yet to be invented, the rate of transmission should be as high as five words per minute, the gross annual receipts, at full work, wetild be two millions and a half a year, and at half work a million and a quarter; or, not charg ing foraddtess or date, say a million dollars a year.

From the Nashviiit- Patriot. Extension of Ante. Ran Territory. The N. Y. Journal of Commerce has an article to show that the people of the British government are much more anxious to sec Cuba and Mexico annexed to the United States than are the citizens of this country. Not only does the London Times openly advocate the annexation of Cuba by the United States, and demonstrate the advantages that would result to Great Britain from such change, but the London Morning Herald, the re puted organ of the Derby Cabinet, and the mouth piece of conservatism in England, as opt-nly ad- portion of jfexico, atu\ tfie estalili.s'hment of the protectorate proposed hy General Houston, over the Mexican Republic, in such form and to such an extent as should he necessary to secure to the Union good neighborhood and to the people of Mexico the benefit of orderly and well regulated Republican government. A great change must have taken place in the public sentiment of Eng land, when we find such sentiment of Great Britain in the columns of the exponent of ultra conservatism. The reasons for the change are dis cussed as follows: “The Biitish are large creditors both of the Spanish and Mexican Governments, aud they have found their debtors are more than ordinarily faith less, notwithstanding the liberal sacrifices they have made. At a meeting of the English holders of Mexican bonds, held in London, on the £3th of last May it was officially stated that nine half yearly dividends, of U14 per cent, were in arears and that too, under the reduced scale, so liberally agreed to by the bondholders in 1851. Of Spain a similar if not more lamentable, story could be told by the English creditors of that country. It is natural, therefore, that the English should grow tired of being defrauded, and of seeing the money which is justly theirs, squandered aud pilfered by the reckless employees, and hungry and unscru pulous officials. Tlniy know that, were their clai to become a lien on Cuba and Mexico, and w ere at those countries to he “annexed” by the United States, they w ould be careful to receive both prin cipal and interest, and that the impetus to the pro ductiveness in Cuba and Mexico, which would he given by American enterprise, would be of very important benefit to them in opening a more ex tensive market for their manufacturers. They are also aware that a very large portion of the Cubans and Northern Mexicans desire to be annexed to the Great Republic, as the only means of escape from the corruption and misrule to which they are now subjected, “These are among tlie reasons why British sen timent with regard to the growth ofthe United States, and particularly in the Direction of Cuba and Mexico has undergone so great a change. With ref er enee to C'nha, there is another aud a very powerful reason which impels tlie British people to wish to see Cuba annexed to the United States, and that is, the knowledge that the moment that island be comes American territory, the slave trade ceases; and that so long as it belongs to Spain, so long will the slaves be imported in spite of treaty obliga tions. and blockading squadrons. “Circumstances may arise, when it will become necessary for Mexico to cede another large slice of her territory to the United States, and when we iy be bound to take it; and in the same way, circumstances may arise tinder which we may be compelled to acquire Cuba in the interest of the island, and of the peace of the world. But we need be in no, hurry. Fillibuster expeditions and violent conquests are as unnecessary as they are immot'al. If we acquire a portion of Mexico.it will be at the request of the Mexicans, and for a valuable consideration; and the acquisition will be more bcueffieiai to the Mexicans than to us.— If the threatened Spanish expedition of “llt.tflMt men, and n large fleet for the invasion of Mexico,” ever leaves the shores of -Spain and reach those of Mexico, the attempt of O’Donnell, Santa Anna, Zuloagn, and the priests, re establish Spanish su premacy iu Mexico, may n -t improbably result in the speedy gratification ofthe wish expressed iu the Loudon Times.” • Dan Rice's Trained Camel Killed.—Dan Rice's trained camel was killed on Friday last.

The Supreme Court of Georgia, We regret very deeply that the recent decision of a majority of this Court in the case of Robin- son, at the Macon term, has furnished a nucleus for all the elements of opposition to this tribunal. Tlie twenty odd volumes of the reports of this Court contain abundant proof of the necessity for a correcting tribunal. Uniformity of decision was the great end for which it was established—and this could have been attained had the Judges ad hered to the old common law maxim of following the decisions made by their predecessors. This we conce.ive was their-duty—and whatever no tions subsequent Judges might entertain as to the law governing a case—they were not to bo made the exposition of the law ichcn the principle had been previously decided. State decisis, is a imixira of great value and is as imperative npon a Court as any otlier principle of the common law. Had this maxim been observed, we would not have had the many - comments ofthe press, which at this time, we fear, is doing so much to overthrow this Court, and there would have been no necessi- ty for legislation so as to produce, for the future, uniformity of decision. We have no commeuts to make upon the course of the majority of the Judges, who reversed, in this case, the previous decisions of the Supr. ine Court. We have held them in high estimation for integrity and ability. We decline the expression of any censure, for their presiding in this case, as no just opinion can properly be formed as to what was their duty in this particular, until we are informed fully of what had been their previous connexion with what are called the Bank cases. We have noticed a very clear and pertinent ar ticle over the signature of “Fiat Justitia,”in tbe Savannah Georgian ; and whilst vve ara willing to assent to the general principle, that upon the dis solution of a corporation, the debts due to and from it are extinguished, we are persuaded that that principle cannot, and does not control Bank ing corporations like that of the Bank of Co.tint* 1 bits, which contain provisions shewing, umuistake- ably, that the legislature intended that the corpo rators should he held liable after the oxp' ration ot their charters for certain descriptions of indebted ness. We forbear to go into the argument. The whole snbjei t of corporate liabilities will doubtless en. gage much of the attention of the approaching logisl.-.tiue. If indeed the reorganization of the Supreme Court, upon a better basis than that of the act of 1845, can he effected, and the Court thereby be made to command public confi dence, w e shall rejoice at such a result, though brought about by au agitation aud discussion we lament.

It will be seen that, at least, a portion of tbe cit- izens of Canada, are becoming tired aud disgusted with the coustant increase cf black passengers by “underground railroad.” The Canadians are beginning to find out that the Abolitionists of tlie North are too generous in sending runaways into their country. After the Abolitionists succeed in stealing a slave, why is it that they do uot provide a home, or means for his support ? and not force the “poor negro” out of the United States into a community that is already overflowing with thiev ing-, lazy, trifling negroes, and where the people are b> ginning "to groan under the infliction. Tbe very meanest negroes are those that the Abolition ists arc able to steal; and this is tlie class that run into Canada. Well may the citizens of. that l'ro- viuce begin to look about them, auJ prepare to de fend themselves against such a rapid increase of renegades. Let them shut tiie door against run away negroes, and let the Abolitionists fitiJ » home in their own country to settle down their stolen property, aud very soon their warm sympa thy for the “poor slave” will become as cold as ice. Hear what Col. Prince says : “Hon. Col. Prince said he was wishful to move a rider to the measure. Tbe black people who infested the land were the greatest curse to tbe Province. The lives of the people of the West were made wretched by the inundation of these animals; and many of the largest farmers ot tbe county of Kent had been Compelled to leave their beautiful farms, because of the pestilential swartlv swarms. What were these wretches fit fot? Nothing. They cooked our victuals sue shampooed u.s but who would not rather that these duties should he preformed by white men? The blacks were a worthless, useless, thriftless set of beings. They were too indolent, lazy and ignor ant to work, too proud to be taught; and, not only that; if the criminal calenders ot the country were 1 xamined it would be found that they were a ma jority of tlie criminals. They were so detestable that unless some method was adopted ol prevent ing their influx, into this country by the "under ground railroad,” tbe people of the West w ould be obliged to drive them out by open violence. The bill before the house imposed a capitation tstx upon emigrants from Europe, and the object of tt" 1 motion was to levy, a similar tax upon tlie blucfo who came hithi rfrom the States, lie now tuoyed seconded hy Mr. Patton, that capitation tax ot 5* for adults and 3s. 9d. fur children above one vest aud under tom teen years of age, he levied on [" r ‘ sons of color emigrating to Canada from any foreign country.” “Ought not the Western men to be protected from the rascalities and villauies of the. b ack wretches? He found these mat with tire, and food and lodging, w hen they were in need; and would be bound to say tiiat tbe black men of tlrt county of Essex would speak well of him inifi* j respect. Blithe could uot admit them as bring equal to white men; and; after a long and close >,: '‘ servation of human nature, he had came to th® conclusion that the black man was but 11 so and intended lor slavery aud that l:e was til for uot®' ing else. (Sensation ) Hon. gentlemen might try to groan him dow n, but he was not to be iuov*“ hy mawkish sentiment, and he was persuti'-e® that tht-y might as well try to change the spit: ® the leopard as to make tbe black a good citueu-'" lie told black men so. and the lazy rscals shrugged their shoulders snd wished they “* never runaway from their “good old ntassa * Kentucky. If there was anything unchrisM 0 what he had proposed, he could not sec it, so feared he was not boru a Christian.” t.iqaor Inspector. The last Legislature passed “An Act ““^us ing and empowering the City Council ot - uj> ta and the several city authorities in th .
