As l man doffs his flnunel in tho spring, piece at n time, the Republican haa beeu gradually drop* ping off its old nttiro for n week past. To day we preaont it to cur readora, with alight exceptions •peedily to bo removed, in an entirely ncw.nnd think, beautiful, costume. This change has been effected at a heavy cxpvnso and with tho determi nation not£to be behind the spirit of tho nge either in form or substance. Thua far wo have had cause to comylain of tho support oxteuded to us by tho public, and only refer to the matter to ex press the hope that it will be continued so long onlyas it may bo deserved. It is our desire to make the Republican all tbnt can bo Justly required in n political, news and commercial journal, and wc con fidently look to tho public to second our efforts in this behalf. The elegant fonts that make up our present is- ■ue, are from the foundry of L. Johnson JTCo., Philadelphia. .P9* Another attempt to fire the city of Macon was made a few nights ago. A ware-room adjoin ing the Floyd House was consumed, and tho latter greatly endangered. Tho Rev. Mr. Linebaugh has been com pelled to resign the pastoral chargo of tho Episco pal Church at Athens, in this Stute, on account of tho insufficiency of the salary to tho support of his family. Five mails came to hand Saturday morn ing from Mobile. ATnr.x.cuM.—“ Othello" was played most effee- lively at tho Atlieuteum Saturday night, and wo are pleased to add, to a good house. The produc tion of such heavy pieces, with so marked success, reflects the highest credit upon our Manager. All fho parts were very well acted. Mr. Bcunett adds strength to hie reputation upon every new trial, while Miss Reeder is wnrtnly greeted whenever ■he appears. Another good selection from Shakspcaro will be found in the bill for this evening. Mayor's Report, Ac. Some men, when they wish other pcoplo to be lieve what they themselves kuow to bo untrue, are too conscicutious to vonturc upon u charge di rect, but resort to that insidious weapon of attack, insinuation. A specimen of such tactics may lx* fonnd in the Georgian of Friday last, where it is insinuated that there is a portion of tho annual re ports of tho Mayor and Treasurer of Snvannah which those officers aro desirous of concealing from the public. We note the fact, and pass it without farther comment. The editors of tho Republican aro the duly elect ed printers of the city, anti the voluminous char acter of the documents in question is, to any rea sonable mind, a sufficient explanation why the Clerk did not undertake the herculean task of pro viding each office in the city with a copy. If tho Georgian was so particularly anxious for them to be seen by its readers, why did it not ndop'. the same plan for tiie whole which it did for u part ?—* Why was the Mayor’s Report omitted, and only that portion of the documents given which it thought might he distorted so us to answer a pur pose ? The second paragraph of tho Georgian’s intro duction to tho Treasurer’s Report is so worded as to convey to the incautious reader an impression not authorized by the facts. If it means by tho juxta position in which it has placed tho expendi tures of tho last two yenrs, to institute a compari son to the prejudice of the lntfor, the reader has but to glance over the list of items to disabuse his mind of the error. The expenditures by the mu nicipal authorities may, or may not, bu tho “ex penses of the city government." In proof of this, without alluding to other similar instances, we need only refer tho render to two entries under the head of “Stocks," from which it nppeurslhnt of the disbursements of 1855, two hundred and eighty- jivt thousand eight hundred dollars were expended in stock in tho Montgomery and West Point, nnd Savannah and Albany Ruilronds. By what rulo of justice can such an investment bo made to appear os pnrt of “tho expenses of tho city government?" Nashville anil Chattanooga Railroad Bridge Destroyed by Fire. We learn front the Augusta Chronicle Senti nel of Saturday thut five spans of the bridge over the Tennessee river, on the Nashville und Chatta nooga Railroad, were consumed, Thursduy, by fire. This is not only a serious loss to the company, but in tho present low state of tho river, must ne cessarily produce great embarrassment to trans portation of produce, and detention to the mails and travel. It will require some months to restore the structure. A good navigable river will, how ever, very much relieve the embarrassment caused by the disaster, os tbe boats can then reach Chatta nooga daily, and will transport freights and pas sengers to and from Bridgeport. The Synod of South Cnrolima, by a vote of 63 to 0 bus sustained tho division of the Presbytery j of Charleston, who refused to put the call from tho , church of New Orleans into tho bands of Dn. Pal mer. It is said that thut thcro is to bo an appeul to the General Assembly. Judge Stuart, of New York who has been on trial for several days, on a charge of bribery aud corruption, bas been pronounced not guilty by tho jury, but, on account of his “irregularities,” they recommend that ho resign his office. General Cass has been invited by the Kansas Free State Committee, to presont their state con stitution to the United States Senate. This will place the old gentleman in a tight place. Yiroima Looking Ui*.—At a special election held for State Senator, in tho senulorial district composed of Hardy, Morgan, and Hampshire counties, Armstrong, the American candidate, was elected by 232 majority. Iu tho last election Wise’s majority was 1,067. « Oomapondanea of tbs ftavaanah Republican. The tieorgimMJrgMmtHre. MiLUtnonvn.t.a, Nov. I.1d, 1865. •■RATI—DII.L* ISTSOlUICItl. By Mr. Beasley.

AC., REPORTED. NEW YORK CORRESPONDENCE of the Savannah Republican. Tho export* of gold and allver to Europe, havo about sensed, whether temporarily or perma nently remains to bo seen. The rates of Sterling Exchange are in favor of this country, and to pre vent specio from coming hero from Kuropo, for tho purchase of our Breodstuffs nnd other staple pro ducts, our market has been flooded with tho Bunk of England post notes puyaldo sixty days nftor sight. This is a rcs|>eotiihie dodge on the part of English speculators, and tho Bank thereby ohtninn a credit of threo or four months. Some of tho croakers here urgo that n removal of exports must speedily he resumed, to fill the Vacuum in thu Bank of England, caused by tho unohecked draiu to the eoutinout. On this contingency these in dustrious alarmists predict <*11 sorts of financial trouble to this country. It will tnko more than a few millions of specie shippod against tho current of Exchange to strengthen the great monied insfi- tutious of England and France, to shnke tho foun dations of our prosperity, and it is not improbable that it will ere long require all tho surplus resour ces, which those countries enn spare to pay fur the food which must bo provided to supply their defi ciencies. There is no doubt but that tho brend question in Franco nnd Ucrinnny has ns much in fluence upon the money crisis on the other side of tho water ns the war itself. Cortain parties uro also making much ado nbout tho return of moderate amouuts of American se curities from Europe for solo, but they take good care not to rnnkc note of tho ordors for Investments received by each steamer. The amount of U. S. stocks held abroad is estimated at between two hundred and fifty nnd threo hundred millions of dollars, and I have it from rcliublo parties that tho amount is steadily increasing notwithstanding the occasional return of n few thousands for sale here. Tho uucortuiuty with regard to the stability of the European Governments renders American stocks favorite investments tho world over. The new steamer Adriatic, of tho Collins' line, is rnpidly progressing, under tho immediate supervis ion of George Steers, whoso timo Js divided be tween the A. and tho mammoth U. S. steamer Ni agara, now nearly completed at the Brooklyn Na vy Yard. Captain Nyc, who has so long anil so successfully commanded tho Pncific, takes the captaincy of the Adriatic, and Captain AsuEldridgc, u favorite old sea dog in the merchaut service, as sumes tho command of the P. on her next voyage —leaving this port next Wednesday. Hon. J. J. Crittenden is in town, aud receives tunny honors from his friends. Mr. Thackeray received $1,000 for his four lec tures before the Mercantile Librnry Association, and the Association cleared $2,500. Tho American Institute has mndo an offer of $100,000 for the Crystal Palace, hilt tho Palace Association want $25,000 more. It would be u pity to destroy so beautiful a structure, and yet if the Institute don’t buy it, I urn at a loss to know what use it can bu put to. Cotton is firm, but there is not much inquiry.— Small sales aro mnking on a basis of 9J a t'Jc. for Middliug Uplauds. Sales in transition from South ern ports to Europo are mndo nt something under these figures. Rice is lower, closing nt -Ij a 5je.

Bill appropriating $10,000 endowment to tho Atlnntn Medical College—lost, after an amend ment by Mr. Lawton, of Clinthnm, asking tho same favor for tho Suvannnh Medical College. Bill to compel non-residents of this State own ing lands here to pay tax on the samo in the coun ties where tho lands lie—passed. Bill to enable suitors on bonds, notes, etc., to obtain judgment nt the first term, whon no auswer under oath is made—lost. Bill to niter nnd nmend Section 19 and 19, Arti- cul 1, of the C institution, touching the oath to bo j taken by Legislators, Ac.,—passed. The only other bill of general interest, which came up to-day on its passage, wns n somewhat singular one, authorizing any person who inny first | ferret out fulso and fraudulent entries in thu issu ing of land-grnnts to get possession of snid land, on paying the original grant fee. This bill led to some very d^iritod remarks in opposition to it; Mr. Irvin, of Wilkes, lending off, nnd being supported by Messrs. Jones of Muscogee, Harris of Fulton, Cannon of Rabun, nnd Johnson of Cass. Tho hill was finally lost, without a dissenting voice.— Mr. Irvin characterized it ns a bill for the benefit of speculators and to the public detriment. The House was not in session this afternoon, har ing yielded their Hull to Mr. Fanniu, of the Douf auil Dumb Asylum. Mr. F. gnve a very interest ing account of the system of instruction pursued ut this institution, and had several of his pupils in attendance, who very much interested tho su rf lens. SENATE. In tho Senate this morning, nearly tho whole time was spent in discussing tho bill for the par don of Jucob Mercer, which wus finally lost—ayes 29, nayes 51. Messrs. Landrum nnd Gibson sup ported tho bill—Messrs.Peeples und Swiney op posed. The speeches of all theso gentlemen were listened to with much interest, und were ablo nnd forcible. C***. Proposal to Drive Russia rttox the Ameri can Continent.—Wc learn from an elaborate com munication in tho Montreal Gazette, of tho 16th, that the Hudson's Bay Company havo guaranteed to the Russian authorities tho unmolested posses sion of tho Russian territory upon this continent while tho war shall last, npon condition that tho posts and trading operations of tho former in tho neighborhood of that territory shall continue du ring tho same period to bo free from attack by the latter. Tho British government 1ms sanctioned this guarantee by which tho Hudson's Bay Coin puny lire snved the expense of strengthening thoir posts by any military defences during the present war, while they obtain the absolute monopoly of the fur trade in that quarter—tho Russian com- inorce being entirely cut off. Tho writer in the Gnzotto think* this arrange ment a groat folly, and expresses his opinion of the selfishness of tho Hudson’* Bay Company with great freedom. In tho two yenrs of the pending war, Russia has absorbed into her uruiios eiglit hundred nnd sixty thousand men, und Franco into her’* throe hundred thousand, while Gront Britain ha* prolmbly absorb- ed about fifty thousand. Invasion of Ireland.—Wo see it stated In the London papers that twelve English militin rogi- incuts have buun ordered to Ireland. We presume they are intended to repel tho invasion from thu United States, about which tho Lomlou Times is ■o terribly frightened. F.x-Hponker Linn Boyd, of Ky., is said to* havo almost entirely recovered his houltli. Rachel and nr.n Profits.—The New York Tribuno figures up thut on Rachel's twenty-nine nights in that city, averaging throe thousand dol lars each, hor portion is twelve hundred dollars per night—thirty-four thousend eight hundred dollars in all—and M. Felix the manugcr’s twenty-three thousand two hundred dollars : “Of tho remaining twenty-nine thousand dollars appropriated to expenses a considerable portion is doubtless divided among the family. This estimate does not include the profits of tho Boston season, where nine performances was given, with nbout the sumo average result in New York. So with those, and making a generous deduction for incidental ex penses, M'llo Rachel may he safely supposed to have lodged iu the bank, as the result of the cuter- pri«o, thus far, n sum exceeding forty-five thousand dollars in less than two mouths. This we enn say from n prutty accurate knowledge* of M'llo ltacliol's receipts at thu capitals of Kuropo, in fur away tho largest amount she hut - over received for a similar number of night.- performances, confirming the fact which tho experience of every really great artist ] who lias visited this country attests, that iu no oili er is genius so highly uppricinted or magnificently rewarded." Rachel opened in Philadelphia on Monday night. She comet next to Baltimore, then to Washington, Charleston, Savannah, Havana and New Orleans, where she is to bo nt the commencement of Febru ary—to return to New York in tho spring. Rachel's Debut in Philadelphia attracted a large aud fashionable audience, who evinced the utmost enthusiasm. Thackf.iiay on Geouoe IV. and George Washington.—Thackeray’s lecture on Georgo IV. has been received with great favor. From a sketch of the lecture in tho Now York Tribuno wc muko the following extract: “With u shite nnd n piece of chalk Mr. Tlinckc- rny thought ho could form n rcspcctnblo likeness of | George IV., so far as tho external form of his fat friend wunt; but when he cumo to look into his I history ho found nothing hut a coat with a star on it, a truo-fit brown wig reeking with oil, aud a musk smiling under it, under wnisteoats, and more but u corpnlet simulacrum. All was grins, pad dings, parasites, nnd putrefaction. Ho signed his name sometimes witli a steady, sometimes nn un steady, hand as Goorge P. or Georgo It., to .State papers. This was his highest uientul effort. Olliers wrote them. Within five duys after his illustrious birth ho wns dubbed Princo of Wales, Marquis of this in England, Lord of tho other in Scotland, nnd Lord knows what in many other places. The cra dle of the royul infant wns encumbered with loynl gifts. Amoug others, there were wise men in America to hail the nppcnrance of this star iu tho East, nnd a curious Indian bow nnd arrow were sent to tho prince from his father's faithful subjoins iu Now York. Before ho could spoak, statesmen, not men, were busy kissing his little feet. As lie grew up this young lulus of England had more pictures taken of him than linlf England, even than Prince Albert, who lias a considerable weakness in that line, nnd Mr. Tliaekney said that lie remem bered when young there was hardly a dining pur- lor in any rcspcctublu houso iu Kiiglund from whoso wainscot tho countenance of this sweet prince did not look down.” Again: “Mr. Thackeray then, lifter a sketch of his con duct on the Catholic question, passed to the picture of his wedded lifo. When his wife wns first pre sented to him she tried to kneel,but, with liis usual grace lie lifted her, nnd, turning to his attendant, said, "I am sick—got me brandy!” Ho then reeled into the very clmpcl and hicctipcd out his vows.— But let us pass, Mr. Thackeray said, in loathing from this royal brute—n disgrace not alone to the name of gentleman, hut of man ! Thunk Heaven! there were gentlemen iu Englund ut thu time—men worthy of the name—noble in thought, iu deed, in love and duty to their country. Such inen ns Col- lingwood, as Southey and us Ilcbcr—men of tho sword, tho pon nnd the Bible—of such men, and they wore not few, England may well bo proud. “But if one George, snid Mr. Thnokory is clo- quent peroration, on that side of the Atlnutic, was a disgrace to that age, there was another Georgo on this side who was its redeeming honor—George Washington, the greatest citizen of the Saxon race. lie did not believe that in this day England would tolerate such u king as Georgo IV. It was howevor, fortunately exposud to no such trial, for England had to-day n sovereign to whos.e virtue ho was proud to bu loyul!” Romanism Scandalized.—In the Brooklyn Su preme Court, a suite has been brought by tho wid ow of one Charles Smith, u Catholic priest, deceas ed in 1831, to recover her dower in certain lands, conveyed by her husband, iu the iilicuintiou of which .-.lie did not Join with him. Tho lands con sist of two lots in Jay street, Brooklyn, valued nt $111,001), of which, in 1849, Charles Smith was seiz ed, und woieli ho convoyed in foe to Archbishop Hugs for the sum of$l,600. Tho plaintiff claims to have been the wife of Charles Smith at tho time of tlm conveyance oftho property, and for ninny years previous, and tnhnvu had two children by him. who are both living!—X. Y. Mirror. Anthony Bi iins Again.—Tho fumous Anthony Rums hits been sent by his friends, the abolition ists, to Oburlili College, Ohio, “to sillily for tlio ministry." lie has applied to the churnli of Jesus Christ, at Union, Fauquier county, Vo., for a letter of dismissal in fellowship, which was promptly re fused—and the proceedings of tho church are ac companied in the Port Royal Gazette with n letter from Elder John Clark, iu which Anthony is told many wholesome truths, nnd the “law und tliegos- peP’ lHid down very correctly und severely upon liis buvkars.—Pittsburg Post A few days ago 15 or 20 young nitm left Mobile to join Col. Kinney iu Central America. lion. J. J. Grit tendon. This distinguished gentleman arrived at Phila delphia on Monday, and wus received by bis polit ical friends with great enthusiasm. He was miw- naded nt liis quarter* ut tho Girard JIouso, and subsequently delivered on address, Iu tho oourso of which he said : I uin of tlm American party. (Throo cheers were proposed and given for thu American party, and then three more for tho Union.) I have adopted it from no selfish consideration. I have adopted it and intend to pursue it without four of consequen ces, from n solemn conviction that It is my duty to tuy country, to do so. I am u single individual.— My voice is weak nud a small one; but it shall bo dovotud to this cause, from u solemn conviction of my heart that I owe it to a country thut has bos- towed on mo honors und power* far beyond my de serving. I huve no pretensions und no aspirations whutsower. I menu to do my duty in this grout cuusu; 1 mean to preserve the sovereignty of this great country to tho people of this country. I feel no unkiiiduuss, no hostility to the foreigner whatever. I niu willing to offer him every hlussing our country affords. I will tell him —“Como sliuro them witi^us.’’ If you have boon the object of oppression in a foreign land, cumo here and bo free. If in u foreign laud you havo suffered from want, coino and share hi our plenty. Our laws shall protect you. Our luws will give you freedom, which you cannot enjoy anywhere in tho world liesides. Rut we reserve to ourselves tho right to govern ourselves. (Peals of applause.) Leave that to us. You shall havo ull tho bene fit lliiil our freo institutions njjord. That is tho great boon wo offer. What other country in tho world oilers the sumo ? None. Calf one go to any foreign land aud become invested with tho poor political privileges conceded to.the people of it ?— No; not one. Coino here and take everything but tho right to govern us. Wo must take euro that we shall not be made ulions in our own laud. This liberty is ours. Our blood and thut of our fatliurs havo been shed for it. It is ours by our right, and >ur title, nnd this land we intend to govern aud ivo will govern. (Applause.) I believe, fellow-citizens, that a chango in the inturalication laws is necessary to thu preservation •n«l parity of our institutions. Who clso can un- Uoratatul them but ho who inado them ? Where ho in the world huve u people beeu fouud rupii- i le of making such institutions? Aud shull he Who made them trust them to hands not tnuglit to I o this work? No! wo cannot safely trust them. «.Vo have in our knmls u great and mighty trust for | he whole human race, to show that man is capable ] f self-government. Wo havo had a long framing fur it. Wc think think wo are capable i f it, nud wo intend to assert our right to it. Let pouo interfere with us iu this great work. Our i dopted fellow citizens, received under tho snne- t ion of our luws, arc hound us much us we are to i ssist in this greut work. When thousands and hundreds of thousands aro pouring into tho coun- jry from the overflowing population of foreign lands wo must guard this right. Tiiu most obvi ous policy demands it at our hands. Wc must do It und wo will do it. (Applause, and cries of wo will.) This great principle will go on. It may bo rovil- | d. Those who maintain it may he reviled; blit tlm J-rineiplo which is so congoninl to our American 'mart will vindicate itself, and it will bo triumphant, i Applause.) I do not doubt this at all. Only let ms be true to ourselves. Let no reproaches he east i pon us by disappointed parties or partisaus, or t.isnppointed demngoguos turn ns aside from this |-real work. Persevere, and success is inoritnblo. 3 is ii fueling iu tho lieurt of every American citi- on. It will reach him every where; nnd in vain will nrtics, iu vain will faction inveigh against it, cast eproochcs on it. It is a principle of patriotism, t is the feeling of Americunism. It is human nn- are crying out. It is tho voice of patriotism peaking aloud in favor of tlm humuu race and it • ill prevuil, despite the wiles nnd tricks of deniu- ogues. (Applause.) A Crucifixion in China.—An American writing {••ora China to the New York Tiroes, after giving I n account of tho numerous executions of tho ro ods. says: Two weeks since, to vary tho scene, they had n crucifixion. A woman was sentenced to be cruci fied for the crime of having given birth to one of tho rebel chiefs. If u father is a rebel, his family is considered the samo, and the whole family, from tiie old man of four-sooro to the child of lour years share the sumo fate. The poor woman wus nailed to tlm cross while living, u gash mndo across tho forehead to thu bone, and tbe skin pouted down so ns to hung over the ears; after which tho breasts wire cut off; they then proceeded to break every bone in her body; ii large knife was next thrust into tho throat and passed downward, cutting the chest open. Tho executioner then thrust in his hand, und grasping the honrt, tore it from its sock et. and laid it boating and rocking before tho judge. Al Shunglue they drown them by dozens. lui'IIOVKMENTS IN Stlll'PINO.—TwollllOSOf ships (of nlx.ul 800 toil* « iii'Ii) uro running between Glas gow and Montreal, Canada. Tlioy uro built of Iron, and all their shrouds, stnys, back stays, in fuel all tlmir standing rigging, is made of wire- rope with hemp centres. This rigging, it is stated, is much preferred. It looks very light, and is, in fact, lighter than hemp of equal strength. It holds less wind, and is not subject to stretch nftor being once set home. Each shroud or stay terminates in a screw, by which it enn bo straiued to nny desired extent, nnd two men, in u couple of hours, can set up all tho rigging, even in n storm. No strain enn come upon the mast to break it, without first part ing tho rigging, so there is no danger of rolling tho masts overboard. This rigging is by far more du rable than hemp, and not more expensive at first. An improvement in the hnuging of tho yards is adopted in these ships, by which tho yards are made to turn in their lifts, and roll up the sails up on them, from tho deck, so thut it is never necessa ry to go aloft to reef or furl them, and these ope rations ure performed with much greater dispatch. Hiiari'eninh a Dull Kaz.oh.-~ Wo translate tho following from a German uciontiflo journal for the benefit of our moclinuic* and agricultural laborers: “It litis long been known that tint siniplo-t method of sharpening a razor is to put it for half an hour in wutor, to which has beeu added one twentieth of its weight of iniitintie or sulphuric acid, then lightly wipe it off, und alter a few hours set it on a hone. Tho acid hero supplies the place of a whetstone, by corroding the whole surfuro uniformly, so that nothing further but n smooth polish is necessary: Tiie process never injures good blades, while badly linrilonod ones me fre quently improved by it, although thu ciiuho of such improvement remains unexplained. “Of Into tho process has been applied to many other cutting implements. Tho workman at tho beginning of liis noon-spell, or when ho loaves off in the evening, moistens the blades of hi* tools with water aseifiod as above, the cost of which is almost nothing. This saves tho consumption of time and labor in whotting, which moreover Bpccdily wears out the bludo*. The inode of sharp ening bore indicated would bo found especially advantageous for sickles and scythes. In tho early part of tho eighteenth oentury a far mer was condetnued to suffer tho extreme penalty of the law for cow stealing, his wife called to see him a few days previous to hU-oxocution to lake a last farewell, whoa sho asked him— 'My dear would you like tho children to see you executed ?’ 4 •No,’ replied ho, whnt must they como for ?’ 'That’s jus! like you’ said the wifo, ‘you nover wanted tho children to have any enjoyment!’ NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
