The following despatch to our cotton men, re ceived yesterd*? at noon, and handed to us by Mr. Wilcox, is probably a brief abstract of the news bv the Kova Scotian. No steamer is nam ed : Liverpool, May 3. Decline in Cotton variously reported at i to $d. Austria lias invaded Sardinia. War ra fting. The Southern Baptist Convention Lately in session at Richmond, Virginia, ad journed on Tuesday last, 10th Inst, to meet in Savannah, Georgia, on the Friday before the second Monday in May, 1830. Rev. Jno. A. Broaddus, of Virginia, is appointed to preach the introductory sermon, and Rev. W. H. Mc Intosh, of Alabama, alternate. Cereals. The North Georgia Times, (Dalton) speaking of the wheat crop in that section says, in many localities, the fly and rust have destroyed whole fields and gives it as his opinion that the crop in the counties mentioned will not be a half one this year. We presume the same statements in the mat ter of rust would be true with regard to small grain crops all over the state, and even in Flori da. The complaint of rust in oats and wheat appears to be universal. Tnllure or Jacob Little. The papers announce another failure of Ja cob Little, king of the Wall Street Stock bro kers, last Thursday.

At there seem* to be ranch divewity of opin ion as to the place wherothe Convention shall assemble, we suggest that each Delegation shall meet and name its favorite place and communicate the result to the democratic pa pers of this District. We believe that the delegation from this county have as yet ex pressed no preference. The Crawford meeting passed a resolution in favor of Forsyth. Wo hope that this difference of sentiment upon an immaterial point will be speedily settled. The next point for settle ment is the time, but it seems to be generally understood, that our Convention shall not as semble until the opposition name their candi date. The vacancy on the Supreme BENCH. Judge McDonald will send in his resignation as soon as he writes out one or two opinions in cases in which he presided. The unfortunate successor is not yet known—we say unfortunate because we think the office of Supreme Covrt Judge in Georgia demands more ability, pa tience, capacity for labor, and good temper than any other in the country, and yet the salary is hut a pittance.

The above Bill of Fare was thoroughly and appreciatively discussed at Horne’s on Satur day afternoon last After the cloth was removed Judge Nisbet opened the talk of the evening in a very classic and eloquent address in which he alluded to the duties, responsibilities and infldenccs of the Profession—the high aims and objects of the lawyer—his poor pay—and very gracefully touched upon the (act that, notwithstanding the laborious life, the constant application to the dull details of professional business which was required of all who rose to eminence, still it was pleasant to know that many who had achieved great reputation for learning and skill in the abstruse science of the Law, had found leis ure to wander occasionally out of the beaten path, and gather a garland in the fields of poet- ry and general literature. The learned speak er was happy to state that the guest of the eve ning had illustrated the truth of his bust remark. Judge Nisbct closed his address with a senti ment commending the guest of the evening to the people of Tennessee, his new home, as a man and lyawer worthy of their confidence and re spect Col. Dailey was then called out, hut he was too full of emotion to speak as he can speak.— He spoke of the condition of things in the North ern States, that the race of legal giants had been lies, sent toN. Weed, Esq., of Macon, preserved in alcohol in a glass bottle The fruit must have shrank very much from the effect of the alcohol, and yet the largest strawberry in the collection considerably exceeds in size, the lar gest fresh fig we eTer saw. This berry is over two inches in diameter, and only two of them (to make up the plural) could be embraced ina saucer of strawberries and cream. From the same source, we have the Report of the Second Industrial Exhibition of the Mechanics’ Insti tute of San KraiiiU.-o, ina pamphlet of 147 pa ges, twenty-two of which, in small type, are oc cupied by a list of the articles on Exhibition, and indicate an astoni-bing program of this new State in the Mechanic Arts. The Annual Jol'ii i --. by James A. Ranks, Esq., contains many interesting facts. He es timates the yearly product of Gold in Califor nia at $93,000,000. There are 4,400 miles of Canals and flumes completed in the State for minningope^tions, at a cost of over $12,000,- 000, and 800 miles more in course of construc tion. Tlie taxable property of the State Is $100,000,000. It has 135 Flouring Mills; 175 Saw Mills; 150 (Juartz Mills. Its quicksilver mines, if worked to tbeir full capacity, be thinks would cheapen this metal to near the price of iron. Silver, copper, magnetic iron, coal, pla tinum, chromium, antimony, nickel, palladium, sulpliatc of iron, bismuth, tin, arsenic, cobalt, manganese, borax, iodine, sulphur, porcelain, meerschaum, natural soila, limestone, gypsum, alabaster, marble, saltpetre, are among its oth er mineral products. Rut it was principally of the vegetable wealth of California tliat we designed to speak. This address asserts in respect to Cereals, that while forty bushels per acre of wheat is the largest rc- supplanted in the affections and esteem of the | corded product, and twenty-five the average people.and dosed in • fading tribute to the Law- product, of the wheat growing Atlantic States, yers of Georgia and especially to the Rar of the Macon Circuit Judge Lamar was called upon and made a fe licitous reply; endorsed all that Judge Nisbct had said in regard to the guest, except as to the poetical garlands worn by the Col. Judge I.. said he awarded CoL B. a prominent position as a Lawyer, but could not say as much for him as a poet This as a matter of course, brought down the house. California shows an average of thirty to thirty- five bushels—forty to sixty bushels as a com mon yield, and lift and 120 bushels per acre have Iron produced. To show the durability ol the soil, a Held of barley containing fifty acres is instanced, which, from a single sowing, produced five crope, the last of which yielded forty-three bushels to the acre. In relation to vegetables and fruits the state ments of tlie Address are still more remarkable. Mr. Hill was then called out and made a cap- j j„ regard to grapes, it remarks that in France > - two to five thousand pounds per acre fa regard ed as a good crop, hut an ordinary crop in Cali fornia is ten to thirteen thousand pounds, and (Miron thousand pounds not unusual. The fol lowing paragraphs are quoted from the Ad dress: * Tlie vegetables of California, in quality and ital speech, proving though Third Kelley !>o a good book, all the law and eloquence and wit extant are not contained in that memorable vol ume. Mr. Hill’s description of the Macon Bar as he first knew it, thirty years since, was elo quent, touching and impressive, and we regret that time prevents us from furnishing a detailed Commercial TION.” We had forgotten all about tlie Southern Commercial Convention at Vicksburg, until wc saw a dispatch announcing that it met ac cording to appointment, last Wednesday, with a representation of eight States. Charles Clark, of Mississippi, was elected President. Spratt, the inevitable, was there, the first on the ground, with a speech and a string of resolutions in fa vor of going into the African Slave Trade. The fiery Ex-Senator Foote, of Mississippi, or wherev er else he may now hail from, denounced Spratt and his concoctions and opinions as treasona ble. The acquisition of Cuba, and a controlling influence in Central America, were urged upon the government, and the duty of secession upon the South, in event of the clecU'on of a Black Republican President Well, when secession comes, let him who dreams of peace and harmo ny even in a Southern Congress and Confeder acy, take a lesson from these Commercial Con ventions. and though he might reasonably anti cipate a greater harmony of substantial inter ests. he will liardly look for less conflict of opinion and exacerbation of temper. “The price of liberty is eternal vigilance,” says Jef ferson, and he might also have justly added, “an eternal clamor.” Let those of us who sometimes turn away ear-sort-, heartsick and disgusted from the never ending, unprofitable and shameful squabbles of tlie present Congress of the United States, console ourselves with the reflection that, after all, a free government is but the mastery of popular opinion—a.maste ry which necessarily presupposes a strife of ev er varying opinion. The price of free govern ment is an eternal war of opinions—a never ending clamor of controversy. The Harp or A Thousand Strings, or Laughter for a Lifetime.

Wc* are indebted to L. II. Briscoe, Esq., the Compiler, for the Digest of Tax Laws of the State of Georgia, prejiared under authority of the last General Assembly, for the use of the reve nue officers of the State. It is a pamphlet of little short of a hundred pages, and bears ample evidence of the fidelity and skill with which Mr. Briscoe has executed the task assigned him. i cry ‘ 'unexpectedly to us, we must confess, tlie Supreme Court of Ohio refused to grant writ of habeas corpus in behalf of the Oberlin Rescuers, and accordingly, six of them have plead guilty and been sentenced to a day’s im prisonment and $25 fine. Tbfaj of course, is a mere nominal penalty—the result, perhaps of some private understanding all round. We supposed Ohio would make an issue with the Federal authorities in this matter, and get up an interesting struggle in which some blood might be shed, or breeches torn for abolition principle. That was clearly Grealey's under standing of tlie matter, and Giddings too, in a sympathetic letter in which he compares Cleave- land to Boston in ’76 and the “rescuers” cor n-spending, wc infer, to the tea party, or per- liaps to the Attucks mob, expresses “great con fidence in the Supreme Court.” But he rays the rescuers committed an error in not killing “the slave catchers.” How is it that the bottom lias fallen out of this bloody and brave arrange ment to put Ohio in anhs against the slave catching F'edcra! authorities ? and fruits. Time will admit only of brief ab stracts from roy note-book and agricultural re ports, which will, however, show more clearly than figures of speech, the capacity of our soil and climate. _ Among the most remarkable and well authenticated of these, without stopping to give names anil dates, which, by tlie way can easily be furnished, I shall mention the follow ing: A beet weighing 125 pounds; another measuring three feet six inches in circumfer ence, could not lie weighed, as it was young and tlie owner wished it to complete its growth; a ]>otato weighing eight pounds; a yield of 700 bushels of potatoes per acre; a very compact cabbage weighing fifty pounds; a turnip weigh- Speeches and sentiments were made by Mr. ; wanfa rt of^^y4h^^^r^"fu^ Hall of Oglethorpe, Mr. Pringle of Houston, j measuring; twenty-five feet in height; a pump- Judge Cochran, of Brunswick, John Cochran, kin weighing 2C7 pounds; on one vine there of Laurens, DeGraffcnreid, Whittle, Judge Cole, : Rraw four pumpkins, which together weighed Stubbs, Speer, Anderson, J.

Mr. Lanierin tlje course of his remarks speak ing for the junior members said, that while he did not desire any of the Masters of the Bar to leave the State as our guest was about to do, still if one or two of them desired to retire from practice, and a complimentary dinner would bring about the retirement, he for one would not withhold hfa contributions to a similar testi monial at any time, when such an arrangement could be made. Itibli Superior Court. During the past week. Judge Love tried sev eral important cases, but was compelled to leave to hold Brooks Superior Court, which is iu ses sion this week. Judge Lamar is pressing the call of the Dock et. and dispatching the business rapidly. The divorce case of Annette Mean, vs. Jas A. Mcara, after a long and warmly oontested trial, result ed in refusing the application. Mrs. Means was represented hy Stubbs A Hill and Speer A Hun ter. The defendant by Bailey, Powers, and Lanier A Anderson. Case of Rice, vs. Temples and wife, occupied a day and resulted ina verdict in favor of Plain tiff, for amount of note less one hundred and fif ty dollars. On motion for now trial it was granted, Judge Love having erred in his charge, and also on the ground tliat Jury erred in first finding for the full amount of note with inter- .-st DeGraffcnreid A Whittle for Rice, Stubbs A Hill for Temples. Divorces were granted in McDonald va Me Donald, and Smith vs. Smith. The criminal Docket was taken up yesterday morning. TbelState va Simmons, forBastar- dv—a plea of guilty, and ,-cntenwJ to three months’ imprisonment. The State, vs. Libby and Thomas, charged with stealing front a trunk at the Brown House, was flat down for yesterday afternoon. The prisoners in this case are boys who were at tached to th* Piccolomini party, and are charged srith having broken open the trunk of a person connected with the Troupe. They arc said to lie respectably connected at the North. .Several true bills have b«o found by Uic tiiand Jury.

The fight has begun in Europe and no roan can tell where or when it will end, and with wliat consequences. The Persia brought news of the formal declaration of war by Austria against Sardinia, and the marching of an im mense army of80,000 men to the work of sub jugation. All Italy responds in enthusiastic de fiance. France having formed a treaty of alli ance with Russia, fa moving to the defence of Sardinia, while Prussia will take up arms in sup- pertof Austria. These powers muster in all, not short of 1,800,000 fighting men, and threat en a blaze of War on the European contjnej^ si ch as has ncrvqcJbOG* w:< “ ''\Vhat part England will take in this terrible struggle is yet a source of conjecture merely.— The alliance between Franco and Russia, it fa said, has taken her by surprise and placed her in a most unpleasant dilemma.

Weed for a copy of “The Pacific Commercial Advertiser,” Hono lulu, Hawaiian Islands, dated 10th of March last. It has been sixty days on the way—not a long time, distance considered. The Honolu.

Surveying Schooner, F’cnni- Kecp it Before the People. We shall be better governed—wc shall have fewer laws and plainer laws and better laws— we shall have cheaper tax rates—less excite ment in our elections—we shall have more love of state honors and state offices—we shall have our best men in the service of Georgia— we shall have fewer aspirants for National ap pointments—in conclusion, wo shall have all things appertaining to tho glory, the welfare and interest of the State in more abundance, if the proposed reduction and reform of our present Legislative system is effected. We have not seen as yet, any opposition to the movement—the press and people of all parties in the State favor tho change, and we arc glad to see that in some of the county meet ings of both parties resolutions bare been pass ed faroring the reform. Let the work go on —let the members from each county be called out so that they will be pledged to carry oat the programme. The people are in favor of it and they are entitled to be heard. One Slander Refuted. We find in the F'cderal Union the following from FI X. Broyles, Esq., which sufficiently disposes of the Broyles and Waters slander, on the Governor, rehashed by the minority in the late Cass-Countv Meeting from the columns of the Atlanta Confederacy. It fa a sufficient in dication of the animus in which these small slanders arc urged against the Governor, to say that thongh this letter was first sent to the Con federacy, that jiaper refused to publish, because stiy \fie'ac&*m Fife case, thereby shielding Jo seph K. Brown from the Just ccnsuio of« mr. rupt and swindling bargain.” In other words it was a perfect refutation of tho charge made, ami the Confederacy does not like to see its flimsy superstructure of prejudice ami misconception overthrown. For the Southern Confederacy. Mr. Editor:—In an article headed "Rentier unto Cwsar, Ac., Ac., published in the semi- wecklv Issue of tlie Southern Confederacy of date 10th April, 1K59 and near the close of that article appears a clause of which tlie following fa a copy to-wit: “And* more than this, though this individual fills a fat office near the person of the Governor, — j- • —-J bu charge that while Govcnor Brown offered an insignificant job to a poor Correspondence of the Georgia Telegraph. Baltimore, May 9th, 1859. You seem to be in the midst of a season of gaieties, and the citizens of Macon must be hav ing a “good time generally." It was a happy thought to blend together the military and ci vic clement, and thus enwreath the sword with the intermingled branches of the olive and the myrtle, in giving effect toyour recent jubilee.— Such an arrangement was in good taste, and highly typical of the hnrmony which should ever exist between brothers and members of the same family, of whatever persuasion, occupation or positiou, when called upon cither to repel the common enemy, or contribute to the sum of their general happiness. The large tum out of the Military, and the number of Sabbath School children which graced the occasion by their presence, speaks volumes for the public spirit and moral tone of your citizens, and ar gues a zeal on their part, for the spiritual as well as the temporal welfare of the rising gene ration, which may well be cited as an example worthy to be followed by others. There has been considerable animation in the Southern part of our city for several weeks past, on the subject of religion, which lias recently been increased to a perfect furor, by the con version of a noted character by the name of Jo seph II. Edwards, who lias figured conspicu ously, of late years, in tlie Police annals, and who has been a prominent leader of one of the most celebrated political fighting dubs of the City. It is said the hanging of tlie three men of a similar class with himself produced a pow erful effect upon him, and shortly after the ex ecution, Ills wife perceiving the peculiar state of his mind, prevailed upon him to accompany her to tlie Church, where ho was so wrought up on by his own reflections, and tlie earnest ex hortations of tlie preacher, as to induce him to throw himself at the altar and try aloud for mercy. So unexpected and powerful was liis example, that many of his former associates fol lowed—and yielding to his earnest exhortation, have also forsook their former evil ways and united themselves to the Church. Many others are nightly joining, and the effect is likely to be felt in other parts cf tlie city. These reformed men have united together and formed them selves into what they have styled the “Myspah Band." I am not aware of tlie origin of the name, but presume it fa indicative of the pecu liar character or characteristics of its members. From present appearances, this movement will effect a reform among the class of men who have heen the associates of those who are en gaged in it, which neither moral suasion, nor even the strong ami of the law has heretofore been able to accomplish. An extensive fire occurred on F’riilay night last, which destroyed the old and dilapidated building which stood at the comer of Hanover and Cam den Sts., and which lias been a Rye Store for years. Several other buildings of similar char acter were also destroyed. The loss will fall on the Insurance Co., as the property was all pret ty well covered, in the various offices. The sites of thou old buildings will now be covered by handsome stores, which will much improve the neighborhood, and be a great convenience to that locality. The only reason for lamenting the casualty, fa tlie injury sustained by some of the firemen, whilst engaged in their duties.— The accident occurred whilst several of them were upon one of the fire ladders, which broke, and they were precipitated some twenty feet to the ground, one of them receiving, it is feared, a fatal injury, and several others were severely, but not seriously hurt. Xaturc lias now assumed her most attractive garb, and fa wooing by her smiles, and warmly urging the denizens of the city to her embrace. Many are yielding to her irresistible charms and preparing for a sojourn amidst her romantic hills and sylvan groves. The Germans, who are her warmest admirers, are already throng ing the suburbs on every conceivable holiday, and on each Sunday, and devoting their best energies to the singing of poems to her praise, and the quaffing of Lager in her shady bowers. Nearly all of the old country seals in tlie su- resorted to by the entire German population on •»•*» e-md-y, for beer and exercise, and on such occasions a scene orauIuutii<Hi i„ print ed which bailies all description.

All the luxuries of food, drink, try against the late Parliament, it fa anticipated, apparel, equipage and furniture, figure largely will turn almost entirely upon considerations connected with this great struggle, and tlie con stituency will probably go for neutrality, while the Derby ministry undoubtedly incline to the support of Austria and the Vienna treaties.— But it will be a difficult matter for England, however much she desires it, to escape embroil ment Tied up as she fa with the Germanic powers, and vitally concerned as she fancies her self to be, in the preservation of tlie lialance of power on the continent, she must alike abandon her old friends, and her traditional policy, and lapse into an insignificant isolation* galling to her pride, and at war with all her pretensions, if she assumes to sit quietly by and see the monster powera of France and Russia arrange the political status of Europe to suit themselves. Wc take it for granted that England will feel herself compelled to “pitch in" before the con troversy is over. One of the most serious aspects of this appre hended struggle is of a financial character. It will perhaps entail a general European bank ruptcy. The continental powers are all “hard up”—find it difficult to maintain their peace ex penses—already owe tlie Inconceivable sum of ten billions of dollars, and are now in the mar ket for loans to the amount of two hundred and ninety millions more. England fa in no better, but in perhaps a worse predicament than all the rest, except Austria. It fa among the great dangers of such a convulsion, as is now appre hended, that it may discredit- national securi ties sufficient in amount to unsettle tlie pecuni ar}- condition of the civilized word. Outside of this consideration, we see not why this Euro pean commotion should seriously impair any industrial interest this side the ocean. The world must still be fed and clothed, and there is no accumulated surplus of grain or bread to fall back upon. On the contrary, the war will in crease the demand for both from this country, and wliatcrer einbarrasments may temporarily arise in the cotton market, we cannot regard them as likely to become serious ay permanent Fire In Rlaricltn, Ohio.

His first page is a chronicle of the dif ferent eruptions of this Volcano for eighteen years past, illustrated with wood cuts of a very primitive style and execution.

Judge Nisbet would (if electe<l,) take his position among the greatest statesmen of his day. There fa none of the demagogue about Judge Nisbet. but he loves hfa country for his country’s good. We would sug- geet tho propriety jot placing the mime of Judge Nisbet licfore the Democratic Convention for the Third Congressional District; to be the nominee of said Convention. These lines arc written without the knowledge or consent of Judge Nisbet. Wc would nominate Macon as the place for holding said Convention, as it is more central, the accommodations more exten sive, and as it is likely that the Supreme Court will be in session at Macon on or aliout that time, and many of the delegates to the Conven tion will have to attend the Supreme Court, provisions corresponding advance. The advices received yesterday by the Anglo-Saxon show that the movement which has set in, in both these direc tions, is likely, in the course of a few weeks, to reach an extreme point War, in the outset, exercises either a marked, depressing or stimu lating influence on the securities and commodi ties a fleeted by it; and it fa not until the pub lic inind becomes accustomed to the contempla tion of its consequences that anything like stea diness can be again attained. Until this nor mal condition of things be reached, of course speculation will be active to profit by the op portunities which these fluctuations will throw in its way. Out of tho numerous interests that will either directly or indirectly feel its influ ence, there are but few in regard to which, at tills early stage of the complication, any posi tive calculation can be made. We can only generalize as to results; but these, on the whole, we think, will not be found to hear un favorably on our own business prospects. One of the first effects of the war will un doubtedly be to create such a stagnation _ in manufacturing industry abroad as to diminish the demand for our cotton to an extent which can only be determined by the circumstances under which hostilities are entered upon, and their probable duration. If it is to be a strug gle such as Lord Derby and English statesmen generally anticipate, then we may calculate that for a long time to come the agricultural inter ests of the South will be severely affected.— But as there is no evil without its compensating good, the effect of this check will probably be to developc our own cotton manufactures, and to thus eventually render us independent of for eign consumption. In our import trade there will also be some disturbing influences at work. The necessity that foreign manufacturers will l>c placed under of realizing their stocks at almost anv sacrifice, will for a time flood tlie market with cheap goods. Tlie large importing houses which have already disposed their spring and summer purchases, will not feel the influence of the competition, but it must hurt the retailers. Its effects, however, will be only temporary so far ns F’rench manufactures are concerned, and, as regards German goods, those who choose to hold on to their stocks will lose only the inter est of their money. A blockade of the German ports by France; if the war extends beyond It aly, which will be one of the immediate neces sities of a general war, will effectually put a stop to any further importations from that quarter. Against these inconveniences, such as they are, we have to lialance many encouraging and cheering circumstances. If the South is to suf fer for a season, the West, which has had its period of ordeal, will benefit by the influences which produce that suffering. Its hreadstuffs and provisions, which for the last few seasons could not find a market will become at once so enhanced in value, as not only to repay its farmers for past losses, but make them rich.— The Southern planters can live for a while on their profits oi the last fow years, whilst but for tliis godsend of a war the Western farmers would have keen still condemned to a profitless struggle, literally starving in the midst of abun dance. It fa impossible to predict tlie extent to which Europe may become dependent upon us for the necessaries of life for some years to come. If, as there is reason to lielicve, tlie war becomes general, vast numbers of producing hands will be withdrawn from agricultural pur suits, and to us tho belligerents will have to look for a large proportion of their food supply. Tlie result will necessarily be to send to this country, from this source’ alone, an immense amount of foreign capital, which will more than compensate us for the falling off in the con sumption of cotton. Thus wc see that in a commercial point of view, the results with which we are threatened by this European convulsion are not of a very alarming, or discouraging character. Financial ly speaking. wedo not see that we have any greater causes to fear them. In proportion as foreign securities become depressed, it is cer tain that our own securities will become en hanced in value. Capita! abroad under the influence of the long continued stagnation by which it fa menaced must seek new and safer channels of investment, and these ran only be found here. We have, therefore, between the revenue arising from the additional importations wliich will be thrust upon our markets, and the increased value given to our government securities, a fair prospect of being placed in a Pftjitfon not only to discharge the arrears which to wipe out the public"(iefit^ifseff* 'fliusTwhilst the European nations are compelled to increase the heavy burdens under which they are alrea dy staggering, we shall be free from obligation in regard to all the world *n<l at leisure to give full development to those grand schemes of im provement which are necessary to complete and fortify our chain of communication between the remote points of our vast empire. If these deductions be based on correct pre mises—and to all appearance they are—the war in Europe will not only not injure seriously any of our interests, hut ultimately" benefit the whole. It will give ns the means of paying off our debts, place capital and customers within tlie reach of our manufacturers, enrich our farmers, furnish their wives with cheap crinolines and laces, and give us a good time generally, until the pletho ra, induced by such a comfortable state of tilings, calls for the oorrectior of another pauic.
