American Convention Postponed.
We have been requested to state that the Convention of
the American Party, called t<> assemble at MUIodgeviUe
the 13th, has been postponed to Thursday tho 20th Dec.
This has been done in order to give more time for the ap
pointment ol delegates.
Tho American press in the Stato will please call atten
tion to the chauge. nor 27.
JS/* This day having been set npnrt by the
Governor of Georgia for Thanksgiving and Praise,
no paper will be issued from this office to-morrow.
-JTSf Tho steamship Stato of Georgia will sail
for Philadelphia at 12 o’clock to-day, her departure
having been postponed from yesterday to take
aboard some freight.
Tubatrical.—The performances at tho Atho-
nseum the last two evenings fully establish the
claims of Mr. Bennett to a high rank among the
actors of his day. Richard III. was played Tues
day night, and though greatly marred by the twi
light in which it was preseuted (the gas,from some
cause, refusing to perform its office) the perform
ance, upon the whole, was highly creditable. Tho
closing act, especially, was represented with fine
effect. We doubt if the tragedy of llosworth Field
could bo much improved upon on any stage. The
dogged, desperate courage of the iron-hearted
Richard was fearfully portrayed ; while tho char
acter of brave and gallant, though calm and pas-
sionloss Richmond lost nothing in the hands of Mr.
Crisp.
Virginius was performed Inst night to a thin
house,owing, no doubt, to the political meeting whieh
attracted large numbers, and tho sloppy condition
of the streets. Yet tho circumstance seemed to
work no abatement in the spirit of the Company.
The play was represented with excellent effect, and
to the satisfaction of all present. Tho rendering
of some parts in tho character of Virginius by
Mr. Bennett, were peculiar, and we thought a de
cided improvement upon the acting of others
whom we have seen in the same piece."
American Nominations.
Tho friends of law and order assembled in strong
force at St. Andrew's Hall last evening. C. A. L.
Lamar, Esq., was called to tho Chair, and Spencer
^urrcll appointed Secretary.
^On motion, Henry Williams, Esq., in behalf of
the nominating committee, proceeded to submit the
following ticket for the ratification of tho meeting:
For Mayor.
ED. C. ANDERSON. •
[(ferreapondence of tho Savannah Republican.)
LA TIC It FROM CALIFORNIA.
For Aldermen.
Thos. S. Wnyno.
John N. Lewis.
A. N. Miller.
Gilbert Butler.
Dr. Sol. Sheftall.
Jos. G. Rodgers.
Chas. ft. Mills.
Dr. Chas. West.
J.J1. Unllio.
Richard Bradley.
John Mallcry.
R. A. Allen.
Tho ticket was received with hearty npplnuse,
and unanimously nominated. Mr. Williams stated
that those members of tho present Board whoso
names do not appear upon the ticket, were tendered
a nomination, and that they declined to serve.
Tho mooting was addressed by Mr. Dawson,
when a motion to adjourn with three hearty cheers
for the American party, was mude and carried.
Of the men here presented for tho suffrages of
our citizens, it h» wholly unnecessary for us to
speak. They arc all well known ns men of char
acter and worth, while the candidates for Mayor
and a majority of tho Aldormon aro about to close
up a year’s administration of our city afl'uirs that
will stand in our history as a monument of public
spirit and official fidelity. The admirable manner
in which our city has been governed, and all its in
terests cared for, during the year that lias passed,
has stopped tho mouths of cavilers and challenged
universal approval. These things cannot bo de
nied, and they appeal to thojntcrcsts, ns well ns
the justice and gratitude, of our people.
It remains to be scon in tho coming election
whether justice and tho public weal, or the relent
less behests of a political faction, shall prevail—
whether the peoplo of Savannah urc willing to
confide the great and growing interests of tho city
to tried and trusty hands, or whether they arc to
be regarded as a legitimate prize for party plun
der, the stock in trade upon which demagogues
•hall fatten and rise to power. We fearlessly sub.
mit the issue.
[For tho Savannah ItepalUican.]
Democratic Ticket.
Jfeuri. Editort.—I see by the Evening Journal,
that tho nominating convention of tho Democratic
party has, probably, agreed upon tho following
ticket.
For Mayor, Dr. J. P. Screven; for Aldermen,
Dr. Wayne, John G. Fulligant, Dominick O’Byrne,
Johnson, Wm. J. Basinger, Sol. Cohen, J. .J.
Kelly, R. D. Walker, Lnehlison, A. R. Law-
ton, Thos. M. Turner, and Dr. Arnold.
Rumor has it also, that the committco supposed
the public might think tho proposed candidate for
Mayor already had as much business as lie could
attend to, ns President of tho Gulf Rond, chief of
the Water Works, head of tho new Hotel, Sonntor
in tho Legislature, Ac. To remedy this, should lie
bo elected, rumor further has it that the Alderman
who mny bo chosen Chuirmnn of Council, will dis
charge the duties of Mayor and receive the salary.
If this bo true, it would appear that Dr. fi. is not
the real candidate for Mayor, but that Dr. Wayne
or some other person upon tho Aldermen’s ticket,
is. Dr. 8. merely lends tho use of hin name, while
tho real candidate runs in disguise.
I hope this rumor will not prove true.
A NO-PAHTY MAN.
Pleasant Incident.—We happened, says the
Southenn Recorder, to be in tho Representative
Chamber tho other day When tiio names of eandi
dates for the vaenney on the Supremo Bench were
announced. When Charles J. Jenkins was named*

It is stated that Mr. Clark Mills has finished
the equestrian statue of Gen. Jackson (similar to
that which adorns Lnfuyotto Square) for tho city
of New Orleans, where it will bo inaugurated on
tho 8th of January next with much pomp and cere
mony.
The flrKt premium for the best Factory Cloth at

INTBRKSTING FROM CENTRAL AMB!
Marin* Dlaaataroon th* Florida K<
Key West, Nov. 26th.
Mean Kditon: The stenmship Star of the
West, Capt. Minor, from San Juan, arrived nt this
port at 7 o’clock, P. M., of tho 23d., with 100 pas
sengers and a small amount of speclo. She brings
San Francisco dates up to the 5th, and Groneda and
Grey town papers of Inc 13th and 17th. The Star
of tho West received on board from tho yard of tho
agent, Asa K. Tift, Esq., ono hundred and sixty
tons of coal. Tho wheolcrs were throo hours aud
forty minutes in placing it in the coal bunkers of
the steamer. This dispatch we bclievo to bo un
paralleled. The entire detention of the ship was
but six hours. She left ut 1 o'clock, A. M., of tho
121th.
We are indebted to Purser Owou aud to tho
messenger of G. II. Wines A Co., for full files of
California and Isthmus papers—from tho former
we glean nothing of any especial importance. Tho
Indian tribes of Oregon nnd Washington Territo
ries, had taken up tho tomahawk in earnest, and a
serious nnd extensive war had commenced. Report
said that 70 or more whites had been killed and ns
many China-men; ami in several places United
States troops and families nro in very dangerous
positions. Tho volunteers nnd United Statos
troops had turned out liberally ami had in several
skirmishes punished tho rod skins severely, but tho
Indians on uccouut of their numbers, had gained
decided advantages at tho latest accounts.
News bad arrived at San Francisco from
Valparaiso, that Henry Mciggs tho fogcr, would
probably be arrested by tho Chiilian authorities
and be sent to tho United States by tho first Amer
ican man-of-war. There is uo treaty of interna
tional extradition between the United States nnd
Chill, but tho Chiilian government had ns a matter
of courtesy ordered that ho should bo arrested and
delivered up to any person nutuorjzod by Minister
Starkweather to receive him.
Tho Novelty distillery was destroyed by firo on
2d, and soveral persons killed—loss df property
$120,900. Tho city of Canon was destroyed by
fire, and great loss nnd suffering bad ensued.-—
News from the mining districts was most encoura
ging. Two bunking houses in Marysville alone
had bought during the last 8 months five nnd a
quarter millions of dollars worth of dust.—
Great cxcitcmcut had been created in Tuolum
ne county by tho discovery of a large nmount of
very rich and extensive auriferous deposits under
Table mountain. This mountain is of basalt, from
100 to 708 feet in height. Under tho basalt is a
layer of gravel and clay which had evidently once
been die bed of a river. Extensive tunnels and
shafts have been made into the bowels of tho moun
tain. Tire pny dirt reached is found to bo abundant
und so rich that in one place ono hundred square
feet varying in depth from one to six ^ect puid
$100,000. The whole mountain has been taken up
by the miners—nnd claims were selling from 15 to
$35,000 each.
The Custom House statistics show that 27,204
persons had arrived nt Snn Francisco by sen, during
the first ten months of this year, and 18,314 depar
ted—showing a gain of 8,990.
An interesting geologicnl formation has been
discovered in eno of the hills nenr the town of
Volcano. (?) A shaft, after reaching a depth of
sixty feet, struck a soft blue rock, which could be
brokeu up, however, in blocks, by hard blows from
a pick. In this rock nro innumerable traces of
leaves of trees of many varieties. Some of thoso
were obtniued perfectly preserved. On penetrating
into this rock a few feet, it became firmer, nnd
blocks were taken out whieh were evidently frag
ments of trees, in quite a degreo of petrifaction.—
Under this were found boulders, nnd other water
deposits, overlaying a slate bed rock.
Tho most interesting news from Nicaragua is
tho trial, conviction and execution of Don Poncitt-
no Corral for high treason und conspiracy against
the Government.
On tho 5th Inst., Gen. Valle, of the Army of tho
Republic, delivered to Gen. Walker letters inter
cepted by him, addressed by (Jen. Corral anil tien.
Martinez to Santos Guurdioln, Into a general officer
in the Legitimist Army of Nicaragua; those let
ters, together with another from Gen. Corral to a
friend, intercepted at the same time, betrayed tho
existence of a traitorous understanding between
Gens. Corral, Mnrtincz, Xntruch nnd Gunrdioln to
overturn the present Government of tho Republic,
which hut u few days before, with tho Bible in ono
hand and tho treaty in tho other, nttlio foot of the
altar, in tho Temple of tho Almighty, in the pre
sence of his Saviour, lio (Ocn. Coirnl) lmd sworn
to respect, obey nnd uphold. Gen. Corral was
forthwith arrested, and charges nnd specifications
wore prepared against him, and a Court-Martial
summoned to try him for high treason. The Court
met, nnd nftcr a patient cxnminution and consid
eration of tho proofs und letters, found him guilty
of tho charges uml specifications, nnd sentenced
him to bo shot. The finding nnd sentenco were
approved und confirmed on tho 7th, nnd ho wns or
dered to be shot in tho I’lnzn lit 12 o’clock of tho
8th. Tho hour was changed to 2 o’clock, in order
to enable tho prisoner to complete his preparations
for death. At that hour ho was led forth, nnd, in
the presence of the Garrison, wns shot in the great
squuro of the city of Grenada. Gen. Corral was
Minister of War under Ocn. Walker, lie wus
much beluvud by mnny, and immensely popular in
the country. Hu met his fate with tho composure
of a soldier, and was evidently n man worthy of n
better end.
On the 10th, His Excellency tho President, sur
rounded by the Ministers of State, tho Cntnmnn-
dcr-in-Chief, and other distinguished persons, re
ceived the Hon. John II. Wheeler, Minister of the
United Status near the Republic. The Minister in
a neat and appropriate address, acknowledged, on
the part of the Government which he so ably rep
resents, tbo independence and sovereignty of flic
Government established by the treaty of tho 23d
i.ltiino, and assured his Excellency of tho kind re
gard aud well wishes entertained by the Chief
Magistrate of tho United States towards tho Re
public of Grenada. Tho President returned the
compliments in a few happy remarks, when Col.
Wheeler advancing, they interchanged a most cor
dial greeting of the hands. Tims dosed the inter
esting ceremonies. A nutionai saluto was fired on
the Plaza.
The Angel of Pcaco now smiles on this benight
ed and unhappy country; her steps uro slow and
sure, nnd her ways aro kindly nnd good. Already
does this beautiful land fuel her blessed, benign
and sacred influence. Tho people of Nicaragua
begin to see the morning’s dawn of true liberty
when all men will lie actuated by u love of coun
try, when civil strife shall cease and peace, harmo
ny and concord reign supreme umid the Councils
of State.
Now, tho imtillud ground thnt in years gone by
termed with the fairest products of tho earth,
where now nought is but a vast wild and unculti
vated plain, peace will place her band to the plougho
and progress and wealth will follow on its trucks;
the long deserted Hacienda will again lie inhnbits
cd, Hie crumbling churches rebuilt, the remnant,
of families will he gathered together, nnd liv-
nmidst the homes of their fathers, cementing love
nnd fraternity, living in peace and building fur
themselves and their children a nation and country
which “ manifest destiny” declares to ho mighty
and grand.

[For the Savannah lb-publican.]
Mkssus. Enrrons:—I hnvo heard at different
times recently, thnt there had been objections made
to closing up n passage which leuds to Iho hank of
tho Warsaw river, called tho Thunderbolt rond.—
In your paper of tho 27th inst., I observe that tho
attention of tho Rond Commissioners is called to
this subject. May I ask tho favor, through your
columns, of giving an explanation of this matter?
Warsaw river, about four miles front tho city of
Savannah, comes up to the main laud nnd inukes
u high and handsome bluff, about three-fourths of
a mile in length. Many yours ngo, a portion of
this bluff was laid out into lots and called O’Bry-
nnsvillo; more recently it 1ms been called Thuij*
derbolt. The extent of tho lots laid out occupied
about one half of tho whole bluff, runniug buck
from tho river to tho common rond, made for the
use of tho lots. After those lots were laid out,
they were sold, with tho privilege of tho buck
struct; consequently the road to tho respective lots
runs on tho farthest portion or lino of lots, nnd
uot on tho river lmnk. This plan, however, hits
not been the governing plnit of O’Bryansvillo, but,
contrary to the original design, n rond bad been
used running on tho river hank, nnd passing
through tho respective lots—and theso were pnssn-
ges nt different places to tho river bank, of which
the rond now closed nnd complained of was one.—
Such hud been the condition of this place for years
past, nnd the property considered of littlo value.
An increnso of the population of Savannah
caused some persons, who could not remove fur from
their business nnd homes, to desire n country re
treat, and the memorable summer nnd full of fifty-
four increased I hat desire. Tito other portion of
this bluff wns then laid off into lots, nnd tho road
in the rear continued open, so that oneh lot has nn
entrance from this back roud. In tho purchase of
tite lots more recently sold, a front street wns re
served, nnd now, by a conventional understanding,
this street is opened about a half inilo in length,
which affords tite villagers u pleasant nnd hand
some promenade. The public road is also open in
the rear of the lots, und cannot bo cloned ; not so
however, with tho front street, for each lot-holder
in O’RryunsviUo hits the right to extend his fences
across his lot to low water mark.
This is a brief statement of tho condition of tho
roads. As there is no fence ucross the Thunder
bolt rond, until tho continuation of the lino of lots
which havo been sold crosses, nnd ns the rond in
tho rear of thoso lots is public, anil tho rond in
front is not public, n visitor will sec thnt it is sim
ply through cloincncy that tho uso of tho hand-
soldo street on the river has boon granted, oneh
lot-holder in O’Bryansvillo having the right nt ntiy
time to extend his fence from the rear of his lot to
low water mark. Tho snmo privilege might bo
granted to tho more recently luid out portion, lly
this explanation it will be seen thnt no one is in
jured by tho fonco across Thunderbolt road, and
consequently no onp cun justly complain.

On the Oth of October the Emperor went on

Penitent ary Report.
The Principal Keeper of the Georgia Penitentia

modorn plan” nnd of proper dimensions; Hint
lights nt night ho hereafter allowed tho convicts,
Ac. The deaths in the institution for the year past

Washington correspondent of tho Baltimore Sun
thus speaks of the new dome of tho Capitol:
“The old dome is fust disappearing. When re
moved it will he superseded by one far exceeding in
utility and magnificence even thut of tho celebrated
“St. Peters’s.”
••Tho liuButiful invention of Professor Walters
will rise three hundred feet ttbovo the hasemeiii
floor, and reach three hundred nnd eighty feet
above tide water. It will contain ono hundred aud
twenty four windows, inuny of which will he
eighteen feet in height: decorated with entablatures
which will bo emblematical of the most important
events in American history; and such arrangements
have been adopted that all visiters, from those in
the springtide of life to tho h<mry-lmircd veteran,
can easily ascend, uml from tliu loftiest of nil our
lofty eminences behold the extent ami grandeur of
tho National Metropolis.”

We gather tliu following interesting statement of
facto concerning tliu Lunatic Asylum from the re
port of the Superintendent, Dr. Greene.
Tlicro remained nt tho commencement of tho
year, Oct. 2nd, 1854 :
Male Patients 78, Feiunlo Patients 07,—total
145.
There have been received during the year : Male
Patients 43 Femiilu Patients 30,—total 73.
There huvu been in tho institution during tho
year: Mule Puticnts 121, Female Patients 97,—to
tal 218.
CM' whom twenty-throo wero discharged, forly-
one died, nnd one eloped. Of the dentils, 15 wore
epileptics aud idiots, H paralytics, (» from 00 to 75
years of age; and every one of them, individuals
in tho lowest possible statu of vitality 11ml beyond
any hope of mental restoration. Much wrong and
injustice is donu to us, as well as to thoso unl'ortii-
nato people, by the failure (as before stated) in
very many instances, to bring thorn* to tho Asylum,
until in an absolutely dying condition.
There now remains in the Asylum: Mule Pa
tients 84, Female Pullen Is <19,—total 153.

and Servants (independent of regular duties of
Officers, Attendants and Servants,) with estimate

The regular appropriations for tho institution for
each of (lie ensiling two yonrs, thnt nro doomed

Oxen Vkurus Houses,—An enthusiastic ad
mirer of oxen, in pleading tiioir claims in tho
Stock Register, says:
Oxen nre much better in mnny respects for work,
ing than horses ; sumo of which advantages may
l>e summed up ns follows: They cost much less
in the first instance, and are therefore moro within
the roach of men of moderate menus. They nre
less liable to disease, ami if an accident occurs
which disables them from labor, they may ho con
verted into food. If a horse should happen to
break a log, a bullet might ns well he put through
his head at once, for lie is worthless ever after; hut
if tliu same accident happens to an ox, ho enn be
converted immediately into beef, provided lie is
sufficiently in flesh ; or if this is not the case, tho
wound can generally bo so far cured ns to enable
the animal afterwards to fatten.
The ox will cat less food and of a conrscr kind
than tliu horse, and needs less attention in order
to thrive. He will work in localities impossible
for the horse, and go forward patiently with labors
which would chafe tho other into utter intracta
bility.
No man who has ever witnessed the two kinds
of animals nt work around a saw-tnill yard, for in
stance, can fail to have been struck with this dif
ference in their character. Hitch a span of horses
to a log which is too henvy for them to start at
once, und in nine cases out of ten, uftor one or two
efl'orts they will either break racir harness, splinter
a whifflotreo, or lmlk, and refuse to draw at nil.—-
Now try it with a yoke of well broken oxen, nnd
they will lay out their utmost strength with tho
same gentleness nnd good will for the twentieth
lime, as they did nt first.

The investigation of the murder of Francis Hyatt, nr-
tired til our Issue of yutor*lay, took place at the Coint
House yesterday, commencing at 12) j o'clock, before Jus
tices Russell nml Connell. The room was filled witli
spectators, anxious to ascertain the result of the investi
gat Ion, which lasted until 0 o’clock in tli.! afternoon, an
Intennlasiou of an hour and a half occurring at dinner
time.
First witness sworn—
Jos. 8. CronclL—Did not know deceased. Between 1»

Mi. J. II. llaliersliHiu was there also, mid u man was do
ing something about the gns fixtures. The ruling subsm
is in the cellar under tlm billiard risim. I remained there
aliout hull 1111 hour; don't exactly know how long. Can't

you lie willing to swear tlmt you did not see him;" an
swered, “couldn't say." Haw smoke after bearing tliu ru-
port of n pistol or gun. The bar kee|ior was sitting
in it choir behind the bar, and fell. Immediately after
the report I went out. Tlrere wus a man nearer the bar
keeper limn I wits; don't know tint that 111.111 was Lewis;
um unwilling to swear to it. After sum - hesitation, tire
witness said. 'Jeiitluiuen, I'll tell the truth uliout it, 1
was drunk." Cannot swear tlmt I recognize tlmt mill,
(incnuiiig Lewis.) On Iteing usked, "can you swear ymt
don’t know him;'’ he made no answer; but said "I was
tight la-t night ami am tight now." Here Justice Hus-
sell called to the Sheriff to take witness to jail und keep
him there until lie wus solier. Witness then Mild, ‘ I mu
perfectly sober now.’’ Being asked if In* did not this
morning point out the prisoner living the person who
committed the art.he replied: "1 said llale-relmiii uml I
were at Haywood's corner, mid saw a man drunk come
by, called Captain Henry, of tile army, who went into tho
billiard room. I In lleve 1 saw him again iu the billiard
riMim. The limn whom 1 saw standing ut the end of thu
counter, when I saw the smoke was a little lurger than
myself. Don't r 'collect any other |ierson coming Into the
har-risun. 1 said if I saw the mmi, und lie did not shave
his head and cut his whl-kers off. I would know him again.
Here he was told to look round and sav if Nuthauiel l*w is
wnsimt the man. Witness would not look round. Several
persons were then brought before witness iu the court
room, among them was Lewis. He said Lewis was the
limn nt the end of tlm counter ut the time tlm pistol was
fired, t was in the billiard room at the time; also J. Jl.
Habersham, Win. Uowen, Capt. Henry, the bur keejier,
(IIvatt 1 nud another man—damned If I know who he
was. The mmi called for liquor; tlm bar keeper refused
to give it to him, telling he was too drunk, uml would
tlmuk him tomorrow when he was solier fur not giving
him any. Tlm mull kept asking for liquor, Hyatt still re
fusing. Tlm former then said Im must Iiuve it, hut tho
Imr keeper persisted iu his refusal. At that time Henry.
Uowen. and lluls-rslmiii, walked to midships of billiard
table; they spoke of hearing wlnit wns going on at tlm
end of the counter. Then I heard it report and suw
smoke; I suw the bur keeper lean over and fall from his
seat. The)iiioineiit the pistol fired, or immediately there-
utter, 1 recognized Win. Hee coming up from thu eating
silisni. The man who st<ss| at thu end of tin- counter
then walked out. I left and went to the I’ulu-dri House.
Did not see the pistol. N'eith r Howell, lli-nry, nor Hah-
crshnni fired the pistol. The man who tired the pisi<,l
was in the liar-room at the end of the counter. Don't
know the name of tlm man who went out ahead of me.
Crush Kxvminkh.—Being Intoxicated at the time, does
all this not appear like a dream to you? Answer—As I
did not see the pistol, d d If I know whether the liuin
nt tin- counter shot him or he shot himself. 1 know that
what 1 have said is true.
Capt. Henry sworn—
I ci nfess with shame nnd reluctance to being intoxica
te I hist night. I don't know nuything of tho affair.—
Have an indistinct recollection of hearing a pistol shot,
and of usking Mr. Habcr-dmm what was tho matter. Mr.
II. said, •• a man wus shot, let us see who it is." 1 refused
and went out. 1 think the prisoner (Lewis) wns with us.
1 never saw him la-fore. 1 think lie was present—at
least that is my impression. 1 did not know deceased;
nm n stranger here; think the slmt was iu thu direction
of the bar. Having some ex|M-rienco ill such sounds,!
to icluded some one lmd been hurt.
Capt. Hryuti, Chief of Police, sworn—
Doing notified that a man lmd been shot nt Arbour
Sa'.onn. uliout In o'clock lust night, 1 hastened to the
spot. I poii information from tlm parties present ut the
difficulty, I caused the arrest to be mude. I went to Cur
ran's bar-room in Hay hum. w hore 1 found Lewis and
took him to tho Gunrd House. 1 then sent for Justices
Connell nnd Russell. I went to the sci-110 of tlm dilficul-
ty soon after the occurrence; tlio body was lying behind
tin- counter; saw the wound; it was near the left temple
over tin- left eye. The brain was oozing out nnd the lasly
quite dead. 1 wns satisfied Lewis had 110 arms at tliu
time 1 arrested him. lie was very much iutoxient -I
Deceased wns named Francis Ilyutt. At the time
of the arrest, prisoner was disposed to converse, but
1 checked him; ho exhibited some feeling—not mine
than is usual un-b r excitement when on > lias been ar
rested. This is tlm only dires t jiositive evidence I have.
Witm-ss further stilted that prisoner made some singular
remarks when arrested—among others, "by 0—d, I’m
not twenty yet.”

changed his resolution, aud advancing to prisoner, laid
Ids hand upon him nml sai l. " this is the inn 11 who killed
tiie liar-keeper. It was done in the Arbour Saloon: Im
