Cj )t lailtj Cnnßtituturaalist. BY JAMES GARDNER. TUESDAY MORNING, JAN’Y. 1. Democratic and Anti-Know Nothing Meeting. The Democratic and Anti-Know Nothing party of Richmond county are requested to meet at the City Hall, This (Tuesday) Afternoon, at 4 o’clock, to appoint delegates to the Convention which will meet at Milledgeville, on the 15th of January, for the selection of delegates to the Cincinnati Demo cratic Convention. The Stars are Peeping Out. We intimated, a few days ago, that the desire so generally expressed by the Know Nothing party, that the “ agitation of the Slavery question should cease,” would develope itself, and reveal to the : people of the South “ a combination and a form j which should awaken feelings of alarm and just : indignation. The stars are beginning to peep out, as the hazy atmosphere is passing off. The editor of the Washington “ Organ" says, that he has “ received letters from prominent gentlemen of the South, two of whom were tnemi*r» of the late Nation al Council in Philadelphia, approving our this) sentiments in favor of a toleration of opinion on the Slave question.” Now, what are the people of the South, or rather the members of the Know Nothing party, required to “ tolerate"t We copy the precise words of the Organ — “ It is so with the North. They claim that Congress has the right to prohibit slavery in the Territories, and to refuse admission to States with constitutions tolerating slavery." This is the sort of entertainment to which the Know Nothings of the South are invited—this is the policy of silenc ing all further agitation. If these “claims” are granted, in the name of Heaven what is there left for the South to hang a hope on, that wild aboli tion will not loom up in giant proportions, and crush the institution of Slavery entirely. A tame submission to this “ toleration ” would be tanta mount to an acquiescence in the refusal to admit Kansas as a State, if her people were to determine in favor of Slavery—it would invite even to a repeal of the Fugitive Slave law. Are the people of the South—-without regard to party affiliations—prepared to “ tolerate” such sen timents ? The Democracy, we proclaim, are not and will not. We have noticed the sneers in some of the opposition prints, that the “ National De mocracy will meet in Cincinnati, and patch up a platform, which will he so constructed as to mean one thing at the South and another thing at the North.” It is enough to say in reply, that the De mocracy intend to do no such thing. Such an im putation, in the face of the granite position of the National Democracy in Washington—in view of the high and strong grounds assumed in the recent elections throughout the country, and in the tone of the Democratic press generally, can have no in fluence, with sensible men who read and think. Where are the leading Democratic “organs,” thai are advising the people of the South to “ toler ate" such principles as the Northern Know Noth ings “chum,” from their Southern partisans? Where are the “prominent (Democrats) of the South,” who are disposed to “tolerate” such a “ claim' ’ We call upon the opposition press to publish them to the world, as we do in their case that the Southern people may “ take due notice thereof, and govern themselves accordingly.” The New York Evening Post , of the 27th Dee., says: “ If anything certain can be predicted of the Cincinnati Convention, it is, that its resolutions will be an echo of the views of the Slaveholding party. It cannot be otherwise.” The Post is fre quently quoted from, bv the Know Nothing press of the South, but we presume they will omit all ref erence to the above opinions. The Cincinnati Convention must enunciate sound constitutional principles—it must proclaim to all sections of the country, the sentiments of the reso lution lately so unanimously adopted in Washing ton city by the Democratic party—it must meet the issues fairly and squarely—and when its nomina tions are announced, we believe that the people will rally to their support with a zeal and enthusiasm almost without a parallel in our history. The masses of the Democracy are sound, and they are determined to have sound men and sound meas ures—the fungous portion has sloughed off, and gone either into the ranks of the Northern Know Nothings, or the black Republicans. In the coming contest, the Democracy desired that there should be but one party at the South, but their advances have not been reciprocated. There can be no doubt, however, as to the result in the South—every Southern State will support the nominee of the Cincinnati Convention. If our Houthern Know Nothing friends are fastidious about co-operating with the Democracy, they mav con sole themselves, for the work can be well done without them, although it would enhance the value of the result, and exhibit the influence and power of the South, if the achievment could be effected by the joint efforts and harmonious power of all our people. The most promising future that has ever dawued upon the Democracy of this Union, at the advent of any Presidential election, now light up the hopes of the party and cheer them onward. Fanaticism and Murder. We insert to-day an account of one of the most lamentable circumstances, which has occurred per haps since the witchcraft days in Salem, Mass. It is melancholy to reflect, that such scenes could be enacted, in a city of so much refinement and intel ligence h* New llavon, and where the world re nowned Yale College is located, but in that region of isnut, it ought not perhaps so much to surprise us. There the “mind is studious of change and fond of novelty,” hut it lias mounted on an unfor tunate hobby in this instance. Read the account in another column. The Trenton (N. J.) Am-*ri. itn say s the Belvidere Delaware Railroad Company have recently erected along the line of their railroad, posts marked “whistle,” and “ring,” These posts are erected at certain distances from all road crossings and stations, to notify the engineer of the train when to blow the whistle and ring the bell, thus contin ually reminding him of the necessary signals to be given of the approaching train The road is being fenced in. A few days ago an old inau was robbed ou the steamer Empress, plying on the Mississippi river. The guilty parties were soon after arrested, and tried under the Judge Lynch code, with a display of much forensic eloquence, and the sentence of the jury was faithfully executed—one person re ceiving one hundred and fifty lashes; another fifty. They were then set ashore. Au exchange says: “A little child of out ac quaintance was rendered seriously ill last week, by chewing a handsome enamelled ball ticket, which its mother had given it to play with.

It is said that Mr. .Soule, of New Orleans, has completed his book upon the subject of his Span ish negotiation and the Ostend Conference, and that it contains rich discloures. He has been un well for some weeks, and his intention to promul gate the exposition before the meeting of Congress has been, therefore, defeated.

Southern Medical Journal. We have received the January number of the Southern Medical and Surgical Journal. It con tains several valuable original communications, and some selected articles of considerable interest to professional readers. In the editorial depart ment, there is an interesting article from Prof. L. A. Dugas upon the efficacy of the frigorific mixture of ice and salt as a local anaesthetic, in surgical operations. The Journal is published in this city, by Mr. James McCafferty, and edited by Prof. L. A. Dogas and Henry Rossignol, M. D. Dividends in South Carolina.

From the recent report of the Board of Mana gers of the Georgia Conference Missionary Socie ty, we extraotthe following; Augusta City Mission, served by Rev. J. 0. A. Clarke, has abundantly prospered. A large and sightly church has been erected by the city liber ality, and a society organized, consisting of more than two hundred members, and several on proba tion. This will hereafter he a separate and self sustaining charge. A flourishing Sabbath school, with all necessary requisites, is in connection with it. But the Boat'd recommend a continuance of a Missionary among the whites in Augusta, who need his labors. It is an inviting field. Augusta Colored Mission, served by Rev. ,1. M. Armstrong, is reported prosperous, and with the following statistics: Four hundred and seventy five members, two hundred and eighteen proba tioners, four preachers, thirty children catechised. Money paid preacher, $42.83. The Honorable 11. W. Hilliard, of Alabama, is quite ill, front accounts received from Mont gomery. Death. —-Hon. Jos. B.

The intelligence was brought from Fort Myers, bv the U. S. steamer Ranger. The Ranger left Fort Myers, on the morn ing of the 22d iust. Fort Brooke, (Fla.,) Pec. 23,1855. —An exploring party under command of Lieutenant George L. Hartsuff, 2d Artillery, consisting of one Sergeant, one Corporal and seven privates, were suddenly attacked by a party of Seminole Indians, at day light on the 20th ihst., about sixteen miles South east front Fort Simon Drum —that party being about forty miles Southeast from Fort .Mvers. The party left Fort Myers on the morning of the 7th instant, and up to the time of attack, were en gaged in making a re-examination of that portion of the Big Cypress Swamp examined bv the troops last winter. Three men of the command arrived at Fort Myers, on the night of the 21st; it is sup posed that Lieut. Hartsuff and the remainder of his party have been killed. Most of the public animals with the expedition, some eighteen in number, were also shot down! Lieutenant Hartsuff, when last seen had one arm broken, and is supposed to have been wounded in bis side. Private Hanna, of Company G., 2d Ar tillery, one of the party, who escaped’, brought the above information to Fort Mvers. Hanna was wounded in the abdomen, not seriously, it is thought; he left another of the party, private Baker, also wounded, about eighteen miles from Fort Myers. Baker gave out at that point and could come no farther. The Indians making the attack were some twentv-five or thirty in numbers. Two companies of tlie 2d Artillery, were to leave Fort Myers on the morning of the 22d inst., in search of Lieutenant Hartsuff and the missing members of his party. Other movements of the troops in the direction of the battle ground, were ordered immediately on the receipt of the information concerning the attack. The above information embraces every tiling known, officially, concerning the attack, up to the departure of the Ranger, and is respectfully fur nished for the information of the public.

Shawnee Mission, Kansas Territory, 1 _ . Dec. 12, 1855. f Dear Sir : Knowing the great interest you take in Kansas affairs, although much fatigued from my recent campaign against the Abolitionists, I hasten to give you a brief account of the affair. I was at Westport, Mo., on the Ist inst., waiting for the ex pected arrival of our Georgia friends. When I left Sparta, I was informed that they were on the way, and I cannot account for their long journey. How ever, they had not arrived when the news of the outbreak l eached here, and I left for the scene of strife. When I reached Lecompton, on the 2d, I found ; about fifty men in urms, prepared to repel an attack j from the Abolitionists, who had threatened to at- j tack the place, and hang Jones, the Sheriff of Douglas county, and a prisoner by the name of Coleman —a pro-slavery man, who had killed an Abolitionist in self-defence, and had delivered him self up. From that time, pro-slavery and law and order men poured into the camps of Wakarusa and Lecompton, and by the sth, there were not less than five hundred at Lecompton and twelve or thirteen hundred at Wakarusa. That you may the better understand the ground, I will inform you that Wakarusa (the camp), is about seven miles east of Lawrence. The town of Franklin, the out post of Wakanesa, is about half-wav from Law rence, in the middle of a prairie, without a tree be tween it and that vile hole of the outlaws. Law rence is situated on the Kansas river, flanked on both sides bv a thin copse of wood, and the entire rear exposed to the prairie. In the immediate rear, and within good cannonading distance, there are fine elevations for artillery. Lecompton is about ten miles west of Lawrence, on the Kansas river. At Wakarusa, there were four pieces of artillery— one nine pounder and three six pounders. At Le compton, there were two six pounders. I never saw more during and resolute men in my life, than the men of these two camps; and I must admit that 1 was anxious to see the valor of the two par ties tested, entertaining a confident belief that the Abolitionists would be made mince meat of in a few hours. The Abolitionists had all advantages, except personal valor. They had in a fort in Law rence, over one thousand men; organized into companies and batallions, well officered and drilled, the result of four months’ preparation. They were armed with about five hundred of Sharp’s' rifles, two or three cannon, and the remainder with all other kinds of guns and pistols. They had stone houses with port-holes; their streets were ditched and barricaded, and had they the valor and a good cause, five thousand men, armed as ours were, could uot have taken the place. But as the storm which they had raised approached, their knees trembled, and their hearts failed. They hoisted white flags over their houses, sent for the Governor, and gave up the contest. Yet so much were they afraid of our men, they remained in tlieir fort, armed and guarded, until our forces were dispersed, and the last man gone. There was some guerillo skirmishing. Our pickets and scouting parties drove them all into Lawrence, from which place they would not ven ture. Several of their men were shot, some ten or twelve prisoners taken, including S. C. Pomeroy their leader, upon whom was found some interest ing documents. By these papers the fact was de veloped, that the secret armed organization of the Abolitionists extended through Nebraska, lowa, Illinois, and perhaps other States. They were in daily expectation of some fifteen hundred men from lowa, and when Pomeroy was taken, he was on his wav to lowa, to haston the march of these men. With others, I volunteered to guard the house of Gen. Clarke, which had been threatened; and the demonstrations made by armed Abolition ists in the immediate vicinity, were so pressing, that Gen. C.’s family left for Missouri; hut before the campaign was over, these men were glad enough tii take shelter in Lawrence. In the mean time the house was converted into a garrison, and strict descipline was enforced, with guards out all night. On the night of the 7th, when it was known that Clarke, had gone to the Wakarusa camp, three men rode up to the house, was hailed by our party, and not answering, was fired into, they returned the fire and rode of—-all in the dark—no'one hurt of our party. I never saw men keener for a fight than ours were —all they wanted was to lie led to Lawrence, and it required the utmost skill of the Governor, and the field officers to get them away after (he settlement. 1 am satisfied that our cause could not have been in better hands, but I am still better satisfied, that unless the people of the South come to their aid, our cause is lost, and the finest country on the face of the globe will have to he abandoned to a band of reckless fanatics. This is, indeed, a lovely country; the fertility of the soil, as a general thing, exceeds all other countries that I have seen or read of. Timber is scarce, but believed, by those who seem to have experience in such things, to he suf ficient by an economical management. From this place, through the Shawnee reserve up to Lawrence, Douglas and Lecompton, and all around that re gion, there is, undoubtedly, timber enough. The country immediately around Lecompton surpass es all.' Men who have tried it, and others who claim to understand it, say that slave labor pays better here than in any other part of the South ; and J am inclined to think so. 1 hope old Georgia will send her quota out early in the spring. Navigation will be open in March, and travelling cheap from St. Louis. H. Congressional Proceedings. Tit IKTY-FOURTH CONORKS8 —FIRST SUSS I OX. HOUSE. Washington, Dec. 28. —Mr. Seward submitted the following resolution: Whereas it is apparent, under the existing dif ferences of opinion in the House, that no organiza tion thereof can be effected without some effort to unite all that agree on the doctrine of non-inter vention as asserted in the Kansas and Nebraska act—viz: that the people of the Territories shall be left perfectly free to regulate their own domes tic policy; and whereas it is indispensable to effect an organization that all differences of opinion oil other questions should be postponed without com promise or concession on the part of any member voting for this resolution: be it Resolved, That William A. Richardson bo chosen Speaker of the House of Representatives, for the Thirty-fourth Congress. He stated that he introduced the resolution tor the purpose, if possible, of embodying the senti ments of members in regard to the doctrine of non intervention, and for the purpose of relieving mem bers of the American party from what they consider an insult in regard to their peculiar position on col lateral issues outside of the doctrine of the Nebraska Kansas act. He thought that if national conserva tive men were in the majority they ought to elect a Speaker; that the American party, which claimed to be national, agreed with the democratic party on the principle of non-intervention ; they could t ote for his resolution without compromising a single other principle. There was an irreconcilable differ ence between the American party and the democrat ic party so far as other issues were concerned, but they could postpone those issues and unite upon the great principle that the people in the Territories be left free to establish their own domestic institutions their own way. In regard to legal questions, he did not think they were proper to be considered in this House; that it was the business of the Courts to decide whether the principle of squatter sovereignty was recognised in the Nebraska Kansas act, and, also, whether that act was constitutional. It was the business of Congress to make laws, and the busi ness of the Courts to construe them; and if that law was unconstitutional, they would decide it as they would all the complicated questions arising out of it. ; Mr. Clingman asked the gentleman to modify his resolution, by adding afier the words, “that the ; people in the Territories be left free to settle their ; own domestic institutions in their own way,” the j words, “subject to the Constitution of the United States.” j Mr. Seward accepted the modification. | He modified his resolution by striking out of | the first section of the resolution the words “ that J the people of the Territories shall be left perfectly | free to regulate their own domestic policy, in order : to provide for the difficulty which gentlemen were j attempting to throw in its way in regard to the i construction of the Nebraska-Kanaas act. That ' any sensible man must know that a variety of j ; opinions would exist as to the construction of any j law passed by Congress; and when gentlemen come i ; up here and seek to ask of members their particu l lar opinions as to the effect of particulars laws it was evident that as long as that policy was pursued | they could not harmonize. He, therefore, with drew that part of the resolution which asserted the ! 1 principle of non-intervention, leaving the question ! in regard to the power of the people of the Terri- j tories to legislate or prohibit slavery in the Terri- | tories entirely out of the issue, to be settled here- ! after, and at a different tribunal, where it properly i belonged. He thought it was the duty of those j who were opposed to the further agitation of the ! slavery question, who desired it to be taken out of Congress, or, in other words, who wanted the gov- j eminent to take its hands off that question, to I come up and say so by voting for the resolution he j had submitted. The Democratic party did not de- j sire further agitation upon the subject, and invited ! all who were opposed to it, and who were desirous j that the Union of these States should be perpetu- ! ated, to meet them upon a common platform, and declare that the question should be taken out of i the halls of the national legislature. After some considerable discussion, Mr. Ssward withdrew his resolution, as it was obvious the House would not harmonize on it. Samvel 0.

The number of subscri bers were eighty-seven, among the most responsi ble in the city. The number of shares taken was eighteen thousand four hundred and forty, rep resenting the whole two millions of the stock, less $1,560. The amount of subscription paid in, we could not accurately ascertain, as there are several subscribers who have not named their per centum. The aggregate, however cannot vary much from SBOO,OOO. The sum required to put the bank in motion and to save the charter was only $200,000.
