Their | Engine, also, attracted universal admiration. It was a new one of Philadelphia construction—a , lirst class Machine—beautifully decorated—and purchased by the members of the Company at an expense of $3,200. Both constituted as fine a turn-out in personnel and materiel—as can be seen anywhere. ! The Review and trial of the Engines took place on Mulberry struct in the afternoon—the Macon Companies entering into the controver sy with their accustomed energy and spirit. The street, the house-tops, galleries and w.n- dows were thronged with the beauty, fashion bone and sinew and young humanity of the place. There were about 240 Firemen on the ground, handsomely unilomied and equipped, and their Engines and carriages beautifully dec orated. No. 1 had placed on their Engine a little fairy girl, elegantly dressed, and by her A New Car Lock.

In Mr. Dougherty’s invention, we have a brass hasp which is itself a lock.

These locks are made at a small cost, and will soon be app ied to all the cars on the Macon & Western Reid, and introduced on the other roads.

Sumter Democratic Meeting- The Democratic party of Sumter county held n meeting last Tuesday—nominated del egates to the State Convention—endorsed Sen ator Iverson and Gov. Brown,and passed a vote of thanks to their representative in Congress, Hon. Martin J. Crawford. Jones and Worth County Courts Are in session Ibis week—In Jones most of the litigated business will be continued, and it is probable the coart will adjourn to day.

After the contest Atlanta No.' burst their hose m the exhibition of the working of their Engine. The next morning after repairs she threw 201 feet 2 inches. At five o’clock in the evening, the whole De partment and a few invited guests, partook ot an excellent collation in the Saloon of the Pas senger Station House, spread by Freeman.— Here Y’oung America was awarded the palm of Tictory in the contest between the Macon Companies, and the announcement was follow ed ly a wild huzza from the boys, which grad ually was sunk and lost in a clatter ol knives, the busy hum of conversation, the call for speeches and the responses, among which Col.

Sec. 5. Every person who may have been held as a slave who shall come or be brought or be in this State with the consent of his or her alleged master or mistress, shall be free. Sec. C. Every person who shall hold or at tempt to hold in this State, in slavery any person, or who shall hold or attempt to hold, my free person in any form, or for any time however short, under the pretense that such person is or has been a slave, shall, on convic tion thereof, be imprisoned in the State Prison for a term not less than five years nor more than twenty years, and be fined not less than one thousand dollars or more than ten thou sand dollars. Sec. 7. Any person sustaining wrong or in jury. by any proceeding punishable by the .(receding sect'on of this act, may maintain an action and receive damages tberefoi in any court of record in this State. Sections eight, nine and ten pile up an agony of penalties against any State official, sheriff de puty sheriff coroner, constable, or other officer of the State, or policeman, who shall aid in exe cuting the fugitive slave law, either in the arrest, detention or return of a fugitive, and section eleventh and last, authorises the Governor to appoint an attorney in each county as counsel for fugitives under this statute. It will be seen at a glance that no statute could liave been shaped in more direct antagon ism to every principle of comity and Constitu tional right and duty. New Y'ork in this bill, not only formally denies all obligationsaml rites of hospitality, which she is bound by the plain est principles of the common law to extend to the citizens of foreign governments holding ami- cable relations with her own, but she proposes arbitrarily to arrest, imprison and fine every Southern citizen who shall pass through her territory with his household, to enjoy the hos pitality of others. For such an offence she de spoils him of his servants, fines him tisn thou sand dollars and imprisons him twenty years. And in order to prevent all possibility of re dress under the Constitution, she scouts at the authority of the Federal Government She makes stringent penalties against all of her citi zens, who shall aid in the cnforccmcn't of the fugitive siavc law, as enacted by the Federal Government; she abrogates the act, practicsdly, by requiring a jury—and were it possible to obtain a verdict of rendition under it, tliat ver dict itself under the federal statute, delivering the slave to his master, would consign the mas ter, under section sixth of this bill, at once to fine and imprisonment, for claiming and holding a slave in New Y’ork, contrary to law. In short, it would be impossible to invent a more outra geous bill, than this which has passed the New Y’ork House of Representatives. There is not an intelligent citizen of that State who would not be forced to admit, that a casus belli might arise at any time in ten minutes between any two nations of Christendom, on precisely such laws as this—denying the right of transit to property and person—robbing the peaceful citi zen of a foreign power on the highway, and pre scribing the mast atrocious penalties of fine and imprisonment for no offence against the law of nations. \Ve say this bill contemplates no great er offence against the Constitution than it does against the lawjof nations; and by it, the repre sentatives of the State of New Y'ork assume to deny, under the constitutional compact; to the people of the South, rights of transit and hos pitality to which they would be entitled as the citizens or subjects of a foreign power. Now of what use arc the federal compact— sonablc prostitution as this ? Do we say, it is mere brutem fulmen—mere stuff of politicians to palter to a popular abolitionism i—that the Senate may not pass it? or if passed, it will be a mere dead letter? Well, all this may lie and probably is true; but we are bound to consider the statute as an embodiment of public opinion, and it stamps with mere lolly and inanity any governmental system which seeks to embody in one nationality a people one half of whom brand the other half as felons, deny them the right of transit, condemn them to fine, impris onment and spoliation, even if an adverse wind ity of answering! should blow them unwillingly under the hostile , . ,u- , b t ; f Ti . in< i uir .v, but he would make known tohis jurisdiction of their fellow citizens.

Our Da- guerrean Galleries are a decided institution of Macon. The facts, as I learn them. Northern Crime Seems to be going ahead at a fearful rate, and there is a degree and amount of diablerie about it, which fortunately the criminal records of the South may be challenged in vain to parcllcl. Our homicides seldom spring from a lust for gold—seldom grow out of deliberate preconcep tion ; and when they are the result of purpose, it is ordinarily in vengeance for some fancied or real injury. Deliberate, unprovoked murder is of rare occurrence in this section ; while every day it is becoming more common in the North, so that hardly a daily print from that direction comes to us without one or more cases. One' of the most atrocious we ever read is that of Marshal Potter, arrested on the 10th instant, at Bangor, Maine, who murdered and robbed his two brothers sleeping in the same room with himseff and then fired the dwelling, burning his mother and nephew—all for the sum of $150 plunder. west of Dublin, were about these: The negro had been a run away for some weeks, and came in to Gen, MTar- ren, "the executor of the estate of the late'Robert Higdon, who attends the Superior Court of the County, and the Gen. gave him a few lines to the overseer, directing that if he chastised him, to do it in moderation. The instructions were shamefuliy and most inhumanly disregarded— for, it is said, he deliberately whipped him to death, without a moment's suspense. Seeing the negro expire under the lash, he got his horse, mounted him, and rode off the premises in the direction of Ilawkinsville. If hp should be taken and surrendered to the officers of the County, I believe that several hundred dollars could be easily made up to reward the captor of the scoundrel.

YYe arc proud of the Macon merchants—for liberality, enterprise, politeness, good taste, in telligence and a thorough acquaintance with their business, they cannot be equalled. The past season's experience shows all this to be true. There is scarcely a house in the city which has not exhausted and replenished its stock Extract of a Letter from the Editor of the “Upsoo Pilot." Knoxville, Crawford Co., Ga., V April 10, 1859. $ Soon after my arrival here ou yesterday evening, I saw t'rom the large assemblage of people collected about the Court-house, that something unusual bad happened. The mys tery was soon solved, for I learned that James Revel, who was convicted in this county at the March Term 1858 of the Superior Court for the murder of \\ f . Y\ r . Hammack and who af terwards made bis escape from Jones county jail, had on last Monday been arrested in Ma rion county Tennessee, and brought here in irons by his captors, a Mr. Griffith of Tennes see, and a Mr. Willis of Alabama, who at once received six hundred and fifty dollars, the re ward offered by the relatives of the deceased, for the apprehension of llevel. After'supper I visited the prisoner then in the custody of the Sheriff and surrounded by a guard. It is generally known that lam not accustomed to lionize either great or little vil lains—men who possess hearts regardless of social duties and whose lives habitually and wantonly violate both the laws of God and three or four times during the winter, and now the Spring has reached us, tho cry is, still they come.

I expected that Revel would exhibit the for me to-rccount them, as your exchanges will furnish you with all the matter on the subject you may-wish to present to your readers. The stern and inflexible purpose of the Gov ernor to abstain from any further interference with the execution of the law, and its vindica tion in the death of those who have paid the penalty of its violation with their lives, lias been productive of two effects. TYhile it has grati fied the morbid appetite of the masses, who de light in occasionally witnessing such spectacles, it has had the better effect of giving assurance of immunity for the future from the acts of out rage and violence which we have suffered from the class of outlaws to which these men belong ed.—If -the latter consummation, so devoutly to lxs wished, shall be realized, it will amply’ repay the shock which has been experienced by the virtuous and good portion of our citizens at the exhibition of this heart-sickening scene. No event has ever elicited a more intease in terest, or greater degree of feeling than has been manifested here since the conviction of these criminals, and as the day of their execution drew near, this feeling increased; and on the morning of the fatal day on which it was to take place, the excitement had expanded to a degree of tension which it was painful to con template. Every other thought seemed to 1x5 :hatGov. Brown was the man, that even the op position have lost all hopes of the last crumb which they thought would accrue to tl^m from a division in our ranks. It is true, there is one paper, (professing to bo democratic,) a recent immigrant among us, which seems to have open ed behind the times on Georgia politics, that has.been discussing this question. YYith this exception, the democratic press is almost an unit in favor of Gov. Brown. In his zealous opposition, “Columbia” seems to have forgot ten that every county, for which delegates have been appointed, lias not only endorsed his administration, but many have instructed them to stand by him to the last.* It is a “great error at the threshold” into which he has led himself, to suppose that any such question is agitating the people of Georgia, and much less the democratic party. Y’iewing “the great democratic ship" from his “disinterested stand-point," he expresses his distrust for her safety’ and “is not a little con cerned," because, forsooth, the friends of the Banks may give Gov. Brown the '■‘■cold shoulder” and perhaps oppose his election. YYc have an abiding confidence in the justness ol our cause, and in this opposition sec no reason why we should become so excessively alarmed.

YY'alker, and oneof Mr. Sickles’ servants, who witnessed the signature of Mrs. Sickles’ to her confession of guilt During the delivery of the Hon. R. J. YY'nlk- er’s testimony, the prisoner was so overcome by emotions, that he had' to be temporarily remov ed from the court room. Thc Court adjourned, pending the admissi bility of Mrs. Sickles’ confession. It details her criminal intercourse with Mr. Key. The Anticipated Cuban TION. YYasiiington, April 14.—The opiuion seems to be strengthening here that thc report about the Cuban revolution is based on good grounds, but it is thought the demonstration will be confined to tbe residents and nativea.of the Is land. Those that are best informed, insist that our government will, to the extent of its present means, endeavor to prevent any fillibuster aid plicity, as well as its perfection. In sales of importance, such as of land, hous es, or other transactions involving large sums of money, thc affair is placed in the hands of a no tary, who, for the time being, becomes an auc tioneer. The property, whatever 1x5 its nature, is usually examined by very competent judges, who fix upon it a price, considerably less than its value, but always sufficient to prevent any ruinous loss ov a concerted plan or combination of bidders. The property is then offered, con formably to previous notice, with this fixed val uation stated. The notary-auctioneer is pro vided with a number of small wax-tapers, each capable of burning throe or five minutes. As soon as a bid is made one of these tapers is placed in view of all the interested parties and lighted. If, before it expires, another bid is offered, it is immediately extinguished and a fresh taper placed in its stead, and so on until it flickers and dies of itself, when the last Bid becomes irrevo cable. This simple plan prevents all contesta tion among rival bidders, and affords each a reasonable time for reflection before making a Revolt!- higher offer than that of bis predecessor. By this means, too, the auctioneer is prevented, from exercising undue influence upon the bidders, or hastily accepting the bid of a favorite. It also saves him from deciding between two parties contiguous buildings, trees, lawns, streams and waterfall, presented a picturesque view, which nothing hut thc pencil of the artist, or the ap pliances of photography could pourtray, and it is hoped that the occasion has been availed of to perpetuate it Composed of elements which the smallest agitation might have fermented in to a fearful explosion—yet this vast multitude was calm and quiet, its countenance placid, and its mien subdued. There was not even that swaying and surging and waving which is gene rally observed In such immense assemblages of people. Its composition was varied, but conspicuous could be seen its German clement. This peo ple, following their instinct for shows and spec tacles, were present in great numbers, and as usual, in families, to witness it as an exhibition, nothing more. Fathers with their children by the hands, and mothers with their children in tlicir arms, were there from early morn till noonday, standing all the while, and looking as wistfully and complacently as though they had been waiting for the raising of the curtain at a theatre, or for tlie signal tap of the leader of thc orchestra at a concert. - To this class belonged the mass of thc females who were present, and but a comparatively few of others were to be seen nearer than a quarter of a mile distant from the gallows. The same thing occurred on this occasion which I have noticed at all the executions where J have been present, viz. a sudden turning of the heads of the multitude a moment before the falling of the drop, and the equally sudden re facing to the front, to witness the death struggle. —** -“tm*- j* b qualities so essentially necessary to calm the j east ^ dubious, waters of that Convention.
