He advertised the Hotel, had a considerable amount of printing done, and ordered supplies for it from Savannah. About three weeks ago he took his de parture, leaving orders on his brother-in-law to pay his bills, and procured his endorsement to drafts on New Fork, amounting to 1800 dollars, which he cashed at the Manufacturer’s Bank. After he had gone, doubts were suggested by the bank, and a telegram to New York was answered “noac- count with James W. Geary.” He was followed to Savannah—affected great surprise at the answer— said there must be a mistake. More telegraphing was had with no satisfactory result—and meanwhile he dodged by way of Thunderbolt, escaped by the Florida boat, having sent forward his wife and ser vants by a previous steamer to Orange Spring. "While in Savannah, he had made extensive purchases far Orange Spring Hotel, and collected from one of the Banks a deposite of $500 under oath that he had lost the certificate. He left the Florida boat at Femandina, and has been tracked over a devious route, under different names, up into Southern too in the fece of the fact that there are some tlirce hundred Jjilis in eachjbranch to be read once and many twice, and - to~ be amended and discussed, and voted on, all within the space of less than ten working days. This is too much work to be well done in such short time, and especially when we^ remember that the Appropriation Bills have not been passed—the Education Bill is yet to pass the Senate's ordeal, and tlie Supreme Court and its reorganization has not been discussed to any very great extent in either House or Senate.

The Bill provides that the Decisions of the Court shall be the law of-the land until repealed by Legislative enactment, or reversed by a full bench, all concurring. I am happy to be able to state that the silly outcry which baa been raised against Judges Benning and Mc Donald meets with but little favor in the House, and thif Bill is no indication of a disposition on the part of the members to endorse the charges which have been made against the judicial integrity o these two gentlemen. The BUI was passed because a large majority of the members believed that this was the only way to secure uniformity and stability iu the law of the land. The bill to withhold the subscription of the State to the Main Trunk, and to cause a survey of a new route, Ac., was lost in the House.

Supreme Court. The resolution introduced by Mr. Cooper, of Striven, requesting Judges Benning and M 1 Don ald to resign their seats on the Suprme Bench, was in long debate in the Senate on T-.ursday, and was finally, on motion of Mr. Colquitt, of Muscogee, “laid on the table for the balance of the session” by a vote of G7 to 43.

Codification of tlie Laws. An Act to provido for the Codification of the Laws of Georgia passed the House on Wednes day. This Act, according to the Federal Union, provides. That on Friday, December 10th, 1858, the General Assembly of Georgia shall elect three commissioners to codify the laws, which code shall embrace all the laws in force, whether derived from statutes, common law, decisions of Supreme Court, or constitutional provisions, and shall be modelled upon the Code of Alabama. Commissioners to have an adequate-compensa tion, and to report to the Legislature of 1861, ami when adopted, the code shall supercede all other laws of every description. Notv Orleans English Opera TROUPE COMING. The Savannah papers announce the appear ance at tlie Theatre next week of the English Opera Troupe, whose performances gave such pleasure to the Macon Dillcttantc last Spring. Senator Dunglas In the South. Senator Douglas is journeying to Wash in gt on by-the way of his Mississippi plantation. The spoke< ! Wm. E. Smith, Esq., a candidate for Solicitor i and effective speech in favor of the Bill, and satis- I General &c. ; fie<l me that this was a dear ease for the exercise of Legislative clemency. The testimony was full and strong as to the lunacy of the prisoner. The Penitentiary was on the tapis in the Sen- ought to pass and that is the one put in by Mr. McWhorter of Greene, giving the Grand Jury of each county the right and power to pay mem bers, and to tax each county for the pay of its own members. I am in favor of this bill because I believe it would reduce the expeases of the Government, lessen the taxes, and improve the general char acter and standing of the Legislature. Poor preach would then get poor pay, and you would not see so much wrangling and quarreling and low down electioneering used to get to the Leg islature. When the people of the county knew that they had to pay for their own members, they would take good care to get tlie worth of their money by sending the best and smartest, and most virtuous men to attend to the public business. It would be well enough to add a clause that no county should send more than two members, or else Chatham, Muscogee, jBibli, Richmond, and a few other rich counties might stock a deck on the rural Districts. With this clause added, The Cotton crop of Georgia L estimated at 1 from this port a correspondent of the New York 11^000 souls, of which the bl $25,000,000. j Herald, on board dates a Lttor descriptive of! predominates, artfhold in conir,’ -.

This employs 125,000 negroes, besides owners, orerseers, Ac, The Iron crop of Pennsylvania, annually em ploying a capital of $5,000,000, and 5,000 men to work it, is nearly equal to the entire crop of of Cotton in Georgia; employing a capital of $110,000,000 and 125,000 hands. Cherokee Georgia has Iron resources equal to Pennsylvania and physical resources to develope them. If developed, Cherokee Georgia would make products nearly equal in value to the Cotton products of the State. Without the Rail Road, it cannot lie develop ed. The difference to Georgia’woujd be millions of Iron products besides those of the Farm, the Orchard, the Garden and the Dairy, for export, where she now imports, and pays for out of the Cotton crop. The Statesman who would an ticipate the grand spectacle, may sum up the items, fill out the picture, and gaze with admir ation. The difference to the W. A. A. Rail Road, would be, the addition of freights from a U. Road traversing the Iron region of Etowah Val ley, equal to all the way stations besides, put to gether. This is true, because four miles of this Road, just completed, now puts on and re ceives from the State Boad, more freight than is received at any other Depot, and as much as ten I say again, I am in favor of the bill, and then f the analler depots put together, (See Dr these Islands.

AA'c do not speak from any positive knowledge of the bets, but his present annual income cannot be calculated at less than one hundred thousand dollars. Certain it is, that in the course of a single month he must liave received from one establishment no less than six thousand dollars, judging from the number of machines sold by that concern.

The Commissioners of thc Litchfield Bank, in Connecticut, have reported that its circulation amounts to $32,000, instead of $2300, as alleged by the officers; that only $8000 of its capital had been paid in full in cash, instead of $80,- 750, as had been claimed; and that there is a large deficiency in the assets over and above all losses to be accounted for. The Commissioners further represent that they believe large sums of money liave been paid to bank-note detectors in New York to induce an enhanced and fictitious value to thc capital stock; that, according to a memorandum funished* by thc cashier, there has been paid $833 66, as follows: Monroe $33.60, Dye $166.67, Taylor $133.33, same par ties $500 more, which was added to the engrav er’s biU, which accounts for the bill as it stands.

According to the Cumberland (Md) Allegan- lan, an old man named John Brobst. living in the Glades, in that county, recently discovered tliat he was tho rightful oivner of a large tract of land in tlie richest mineral region of Penn sylvania, underlaid with immense scams of coal and iron, and valued at $8 000,0W. Brobst, it is said, lived on'thc land fifty years ago, became involved through his brother, mortgaged his property to its then full value, and came to Ma ryland, where he has ever since lived in indigent circumstances. The property subsequently- passed into the hands of his nephews, who af terwards sold it to a wealthy company. The difficulty of giving a good title to the property- led to the fact that Brobst was still alive. He was searched out, found, and taken on the Penn sylvania, and according to to AUeghanian, has sold out all his right for the sum of $2,000,000. Dastardly Outrage!
