In the House, tho bill providing for the safe-j dra^n *nd registered before twelve o’clock.—
dared to mas* a free will offering from the Demoo-
racy of my native State. I ramediately after the ae-
tiou of this con veation—a portion of the State Ex-
ecutive Committee caUed a Convention to assemble
on the nth of this month, fortheporpoaeofappoint-
lag delegates.te tho Charietton Convention. Thia
call was made upon the avowed gronnd, that the
Executive Committee alone was intrusted with the
power and duty of calling Conventions—and that
the ect ofthe Democratic members ot the Legisla-
tsre, in calling the December Convention, was an
unauthorized ararpetlen of power on their part. So
far as the record goes, the issue made by the Exec
utive Committee was with the Democratic members
ofthe Legislature, in which 1 think a moat unjnrt and
illiberal attack was made upon a huge body of as
true and faithful Democrats as ever assembled us
the State; either as aucovbntion or a> member* of
a legislature. In conforming their action to tho uni-
hnu usage of our party for many yean, they had a
light to expect the support and sanction of their
Democratic brethren ot the State.
Whilst, however, neither the executive committee
nor their recognised organa, at the time of calling
tha convention ofthe 14th inst., made a direct and
open issue with the action of the December con von-
turn in its recommendation of my name for nomina
tion at Charleston, yet tho charge was made in dif
ferent quarters, that there existed dissatisfaction in
the public mind, in reference to it.—Many of my
Mends who fully approved and sanctioned ail that
lad been done at the December convention, advis
ed with me as to the proper course to be pursued.—
The iudioatlooa were that the democracy of Georgia,
would ffq divided and distracted, at a time, when
every patriot in the State felt there existed the great-
cat necessity for union and harmoay.—Issues rising
in magnitude and importance far above all conaid-
orations of personal advancement or interest, were
fast forcing themselves upon us-requiring for the fu-
lais prelection otoar rights and honor,the undivided
and cordial co-operation of every true andloyal son
ofthe State.—With thia feeling I fully sympathis
ed sud determined to direct my conduct accoiding-
ly — 1 therefore responded to those who had address
ed me oa the subject, and frankly stated to them the
course 1 deaited them to pursue and reason for it.—
Whilst I entertained no doubt whatever of the pro
priety and regularity of the December convention. I
neither desire nor would I accept the vote of tho
Jitate at Charleston, against the will anti voice of a
majority of the democracy of my own State.-Indeed,
I went further sad said, that 1 could not c onsent that
vuy name should tie presented at the Charleston con
vention, if the oppmntion to me in Georgia though
a minority, should be of such a character either in
numbers or feeling, as would endanger that union
and harmony in our ranks, which I regarded as so
essential lb view of the alarming crisis, through
which the country was now called to pass.—As the
a nestion was made, though indirectly, upon the ae
on of the December convention in reference to my-
•elf, I urged upon my friends to participate in the
movement for tha March convention, that there
might be a fall and fair expression of the popular
will on the auyect. 8u far as my own personal po
sition in the matter was conoerned, 1 waived all
qaestions of regularity and legality—desiring to
know what were the feelings of the democracy on
the subject. It vh Immaterial to me, whether that
information caiue through the channel of a regular
or an irregular convention.—to learn the fact was
my object then i—and to set upon it, is my purpose
now.
The March convention has assembled and its pro
ceedings ore now before me. I have carefully analy
sed and considered them in connection with the ac
tion of the December convention. The result is,
that i am artli satisfied that J have received daring
fliis contest the wsttu and earnest support of a de
cided majority of the democracy of the State—for
which 1 feel most deeply and eiacerely grateful. It
is clear to my mind, however, that the opposition to
ice though not so openly avowed is eqaally decid
ed. Under these clrouinstances, I regard the longer
ccnnection of ray name with the nomination at Char
leston. as calculated to produce diaoerd where there
should be harmony, and diatraotion where there
should be unity, with this conviction there is no
room for hesitation as to my oourse. 1 must with
draw my name unconditionally front the canvass
and this letter is written for the purpose orannminc-
ing to aii who may fool an interest in the matter, hut
partH-niarly to the delegation from Georgia, to the
Charleston convention, that 1 have done ao.
1 will sock some other occasion to express to those,
who have extended to metheir generous confidence
and earnest support.my gratefhl appreciation of their
conduct.
In oonunoa with our brethren of the Sooth, we
approach a contest involving the issues of life and

Mexico—The Ball Opened
Tho news from Vera Cruz would seem to
indicate that the ball has opened thereabouts,
and that matters are approaching a crisis—
though crisiscR, it must be confessed, aro very
common things in that country. It is to be
hoped that the legitimate Mexican government,
which we have recognized, may soon succeed
now in establishing its authority generally
throughout tho interior, and seettro once more
tho capital. Miramon, it seems, has already
been repulsed to his attack upon Vert Cruz,
thqugh tho nows is so meagre that not much
can be uaado out of it The Spanish forces
from Havana, to aid the revolutionists, H ap
pears, have been unfortunate, and caught a
•fei '3Sb?
which Com. Turner has thought it his duty to
pursue. He doubtles had instructions from his
government how to act to a certain contingency,
and has, most likely, obeyed them. We shall
be alow to condemn him unless there is good
cause far it, and until tho circumstances of the
case shall he fuQy known. Our naval officers
are men of good sense and patriotism, and they
do not usually act without having goo! reasons
for their action. We shall by no moans con
demn Com. Turner. Our present impressions
are to his favor. Wcltave recognized the Juarez
Government, and that alone. Consequently
there hi no government in Mexico but his known
legally to us. Tho other party must bo consid
ered by us revolutionary and traitorous. If a
third party chooses to telco a hand in the fight
and aid the revolutionists and traitors, by what
law are u» debarred from taking a hand in it
also, and assisting the government which wc
have recognized and with- wWoh *• _ are. at
peace * If Spain, directly or indirectly, is going
to assist the revolutionist and rebel, Miramon,
ws have at least an equal right to assist the gov
ernment tint- we hare recognized, as Com.
Turner, represenfing the United States, it ap
pears, has done. What the withdrawal of the
exequatur from our Consul at Vera Cruz means,
we do not know. Probabiy we shall after a
iltae.
After the atrocious butcheries committed up
on American eitizenein Mexico by Miramon
and his associates, w* are in no humor to use
honeyed words to regard to him. Wc regard

Tltc Oldest Negro on Record.
Dr. Horatio Bowen, of Clinton, Jones coun
ty, mentioned to us the death of Sam, a native
African negro, at the plantation of his master,
Mr, A. J. Billingsly, on the 24th of December,
1859, When captured in Africa to be brought
to this country, he says he was 45 years old—
lie landed in Charleston, and was bought by
the Lowther family—lived with them in .that
city nearly twelve years, and were in their pos
session till a few years, since. From Charles
ton, Sam was carried to Savannah—staid there
forty years, and moved to this section about the
year 1826. At this time, he came under the
notice of Dr. Bowen, as hb had occasion to at
tend him to cure a bone felon on his finger, and
his gratitude never ceased, but exhibited itself
whenem the Dr. came near him, in expres-
sions half in'African, iw i»« -never learned to
speak English well. From tho evidence of re
liable persons, and tho negro’s own statement,
he is supposed to have been over one hundred
and forty years old at the time of his death.
This is the same negro Sam, to whom, if we aro
not mistaken, an illusion is made in White’s
Statistics of Georgia, as being a very old negro,
and having died a few years previous to the
publication of that work; but the record of Itis
death was a mistake.
Tho Court could have been adjourned until
Court in course by dinner, but for the absence
of Counsel.
As it was, not a single jury case was tried,
and but one verdict taken.
What will the lawyers do in Twiggs? was
the frequent but sad inquiry made to a host of
gaunt, anxious and hollow-eyed counsellors in
attendance on this ghost of a Court, and who,
shortly after enjoying the bountiful board of
their landlady, Mrs. Evans, ordered their horses,
paid their bills, gave their last dime to the ost
ler, and vamoosed from Marion to reach Macon
late at night Two or three of tho foreign bar
remained over to gather up the crumbs, collect
tltc small remains of fees front threadbare law
suits, and to have their slumbers disturbed by
tho fiddling, dancing arid boisterous revelry of
tho Night Hawk Club,-an institution which
meets at Marion twice a year, for the purpose
of organizing a choir, whose notes arc some
what in antagonism to the melodious strains
which the visitors' at the Italian Opera lust
week were delighted to Bear. The Night
Hawks are a wide awake set of fellows, and
blessed with a gift of continuance in their pe
culiar orgies, which if bestowed upon literary
and agricultural pursuits, would surely lead to
fame and fortune. We must confess, however,
that while we commend their industry, we pro
test against the appropriateness of the hour se
lected for the celebration of the virtues of Pike’s
distillations.

An Irish Joke—now it got Paddy
OUT OF A SCRAPE.
To jest is an Irish peculiarity. W c saw this
national characteristic used by an Attorney of
this city with much force and effect before Jus
tices Granniss, Wood and Ellis, yesterday mor
ning. One Peter Lawless had prosecuted Pat
Crowan and Pat Nounan for an assault and bat
tery upon his person, on Friday morning last
Capt Griffin conducted the prosecution, and
Samuel Hunter, Esq., tho defence. Lawless
appeared in court with blackened eyes and bro
ken nose, and swore quite enough to make out
his case.
Tho counsel for tho defence, in opening the
case, stated that he admitted the battery, but
expected to show that it was the result of an
“Irish joke.” Wc have heard of such things,
but never before saw one practically illustra-
trated. We must do Mr. Hunter the credit to
say he did prove the case a joko beyond a ques
tion. Quite a number of witnesses testified that
the piosocutor and the prisoners were in’ the
habit of pelting each other with rocks, potatoes
and other missiles—that on Friday morning
they began their usual fun, prosecutor throw
ing stones and prisoners Irish potatoes, when
unfortunately a potato struck and dislocated
prosecutor’s nose. Yes, strange as it may
seem, an Irishman bad his nose broken by an
Irish potato, for a sargdtn was in court and
pronounced prosecutor’s nose out of joint R
was abundantly proved that prosecutor had ad
mitted that it had been done in fun.
o——jj i-iv.uw poor injured
man, but’ the prisoners like whole soulcd Irish
men had offered to pay him for the injury, this
was all they could do.
The court acquitted tho prisoners on the pay-1
men t of costs. It seems that Irish jokes are
sometimes nose splitters and not side splitters.

This story is not credited here for several
reasons. It was proved on tho examination,
by threo or four persons of credit, that she
went down to Staten Island on the afternoon of
her disappearance. Her character for probity
and the Christian virtues is also too high to ad
mit of such an accusation. The theory is much
more plausible that her body is lvimr in thn

We are glad 'to learn, from a long article in
yesterday’s paper, that the Savannah Republi
can reciprocates tho hospitablo and friendly
spirit in which wc propose to go into their
State Convention, on tho terms of their invita
tion, -and vote them over to the Democracy.—
Ho is ready for a union, and proffers to tho De
mocracy in his “independent opposition party,”
‘place of refuge—a shelter from democratic
storms.” “Come, rest in this bosom,” as the
minnow said to the whale. Friend Republican,
your “shelter” is insufficient for the guosts you
invite; and besides, it is but a Jonah’s gourd
shelter—it withers with every sun. You re
quire a new thatch every year, and such a frail
shanty is worthincithcrrepairs nor enlargement
Come you ana enter the democratic house
against which tho storms have beaten in vain
for halt a century, and you shall have room and

Abolition Practice v*. Abolition Precept—
Tho Chicago Times says that a large wholesale
house in Chicago lately sent an agent into Mis
souri to look into tho circumstances of one of
their debtors in that State. The agent went,
and shortly reported that tho debtor had noth
ing of value, except a couple of negro'children.
Uis employers were Republicans—every man
in their house was a Republican—yet they
wrote back to levy on the negro children, and
hold them for tho debt This was done, but
without effect, for the distressed debtor could
not raise the funds. The Republican firm then
wrote to have the children sold to pay a debt
of $600.

monize all interest*, and thus ensure the prompt
building of tbe road. That tha road; if btult, will
prove of vast advantage to Augusta and to Macon
and Charleston, and to the people all along the line,
and also to Sonthweat Georgia, we have never for a
moment donbted. But the paramount question with
many who take stock in such enterprise* is in regard
to the dividend. Not only must men be satisfied
that the road will benefit the towns and the people
as above mentioned, bnt capitalists require to see
the per cent they are likely to get from their invest
ment. Macon needs the road, to furnish her anoth
er outlet to tbs sea, and relieve her from the fond
embraces. of the Central Company. Augusta and
Charleston need tbe road to enable them to com
pete, on something like equal terms, with Savannah,
for the rich products of Southwest Georgia, constant-
E * creasing, and now only a mere drop to what
must eventually become. The people of Han-
, Baldwin and Jones need the road to give them
the choice of market*. Bat here the ever reunrring
question is “will it pay.’! Unless men- can feel satis-
fled it will, the road will never be bnilt.
Another imp
important question, and that upon wh
the main difficulty hinge*, i* in reference to :
Inch
JHi . the
route. It is held by many that the interests of Au
gusta and Charleston require a direct route, and by
the shortest line, between this city and Macon. Tbe
object is to get cheaply and directly to the cotton
fields of South-west Georgia, and to secure the great
through travel from Montgomery and all points
South and West of it. This will necessarily divert
a Urge travel from the Georgia Railroad and from
the Atlanta-A West Point Hoad, in which the Geor
gia Read is largely interested. Even tbe cirenitoos
route from Opelika by Columbus, Macon and Millen
to Augusta, draws now some of tbe travel from the
West rot«» *nd the Georgia Roads. It must readi
ly be seen that all it,* newer and all the influence
ot the Georgia Road will be orougtu t* u, r against
the direct ronte. and the only route, if any, that that
road would look upon with favor, is tbe route which
shall connect with tbe Georgia Road, the higher up
the better.
Can a direct road of 118 or 115 miles be bnilt, and
at wbat cost I It is held by its friends that such a
road can be bnilt more cheaply, per mile, than on
any other line, that the country is more level, snd
better supplied with timber, and that there-will be
less bridging and trestle work. Bnt it is said in oppo
sition that the country through which a read would
pas* ia pAnr-and unproductive, and could furnish
little freights. We know nothing of the tacts, tint
resume the land ia very- similar to that along the
ieorgia Road for forty or fifty miles above Augus
ta, which twqpty years ago was considered worth-
less, and which ia now quite productive and in de
mand at largely advanced prices.
We suppose that *16,000 per mile is a full esti
mate for tho direct route, and *80,000 per mile for
the route from Warrenton. Mr. Wm. G. Bonner,
ly years ago made a preliminary survey of the
route from Warrenton to Macon, estimating the dis
tune e at 71 miles, and the whole cost of the. road a-
bout *1,750,000. But iron is much cheaper now than
then, and improvements In construction will lower
the oast of tbe road-bed. Perhaps tbe direct road
can be bnilt fur *1,800,000, and the Warrenton road
for *1,500,000, cask. Bnt wncre is the money to
come from—when will the subscriptions be raised.

_From these figures it wonld appear that the War-

ocal freight would probably be heavier on tbe
Warrenton route, though that is doubtful, but tho
direct shortest route would have much the advan
tage in contending with the Centra] road for freight
from Macon and beyond.
We do most sincerely hope that conflicting inter-
eats may be harmonized and some rontoagrtied on,
and that the road may be speedily built. Augusta
for years has desired to reach Hancock, Baldwin
and Jones, andthe rich oountry Southwest of Ma
con. The Central Hoad now takes some ten or fif
teen thousand bales of cotton from Milledgeville,
nine-tenths of which we aro assured would come this
way, ifit could. Old Hancock, the most improving
connty in the State, will furnish large freights to the
road, and her people are ripe tor it.
British Tuans with the Ukiteu.States —The
London Times’ city article ol the 28th nit. contains
the following statement, showing the growing im-
rortance to Great Britain of her trade with.the Uni-
ed States:
A »«<■■■-'k..« i-o.od by the Board of Trade
ofthe declared value of British »»d iitaii proauco
and manufactures exported from the United King
dom daring the past year. From this document tbe
following list baa been compiled,'showing the order
in which the varions communities ofthe world rank
as our customers. Its chief feature is again tho ex
traordinary growth of onr Eastern trade. In 1857
the value of onr exports to Australia was exactly
though better in 1859, than in 1858 shows a decline.
Within theaameperiod also, onr dealings with Chinn
have doubled. Contrasted with the figures ofT858,
‘hetrade without own possessions during the past
year, which sflll constitutes more than 33 per cent of
tbe entire export operations of the United Kingdom,
presents an increase in all instances save those of
he West Indies, Singapore, the Channel Islands,
Mauritius, the Ionian islands, and British Honduras.
The shipments to tbe United States, which experi
(•need a serious check after the p»nic of 1857, have
recovered to a point beyond their former acale.jrad
are now more than 17 per oent of onr total exports
foreign and colonial, and 87 per'cent pfour foreign
exports alone. Germany, although her trade with us
has declined tor the past three years, takes about
half as much as the United States, and then follow
Sooth America and Holland. France again pre
sents a falling off sufficient to indicate a moat un
healthy state of the commercial relations of the two
countries. In 1857 Turkey stood before Kussia 1 bnt
last year their positions were transposed. Spain,
Portugal, Naples, and the Papal States all figure on
the unfavorable side. -Sardinia however, shows a
good Increase. Sweden and Norway have alto
carried on a largo trade, while that with Belgium ha f
been unsatisfhcfbnr. Finally, it is to bo remarked
that our trade with European States is every year
becoming of a more secondary character aa compar
ed with that which ws havo^stsblished among our
colonial and American progeny. It is to those quar
ters that the magnificent augmentation exhibited
in the present total over 1858, and which renders it
of unprecedented amount, is entirely due. The gen
eral Increase is -£13.831,671, white to the colonies
and the United States it was £14,092,424.
