DULY CONSTITUTIONALIST BY JAMKS GARDNER. TUESDAY MORNING, JAN’Y. 15. | "JOS’ We received a letter, a few days since, from Mr. J. J. Milner, enclosing two dollars for sub scription to the Weekly Otnftitutionabet • He will please state to us the name of the office he wishes the paper sent. River News. The river is in good boating order. The Telegraph Lines. We are pleased to learn that the telegraph line is in good working order in all directions. Look out lor the Burglars. We notice that these midnight prowlers have been operating in Charleston, very recently, and there may be some few delegates in our city. Supreme Court. The Savannah Republican, of the 14th inst., says: “This is the day appointed by the late Act for the opening of the Supreme Court in the Savannah District. Judges Lumpkin and McDonald arrived in the city Saturday, and took lodgings at the Pulaski House. We also perceive the name of T. R. R. Cobb, Esq., Reporter, on the register of the same establishment.” Congressional. We refer our readers to the abstract of Congres which we take from the Wu-di rected towards an organization of the House up to the latest dates received from Washington. The strength of the opponents of Democracy is suffi ciently puisant to disorganize ihe House, but 100 feeble to effect any unity or harmony among them selves. Peace and the Eastern War. We have, for the past few weeks, labored through long articles, taken from different European pa pers, and the correspondence from the crowned heads and parties belligerent, as well as through column after column from the American press, in search of something definite in regard to the pros pects of peace in Europe—but we have found noth ing but speculations and badly managed negoti ations. The prospect of peace is about as gloomy as it was at the first sailing of the British and French fleets at the beginning of the war. The French and English are heartily tired of the war, and the Russians would be pleased if hostilities would cease ; hut, until there is a decided back-011; by some of the parties, the war will coutinue. Edgefield and Augusta Railroad. We solicit attention to the communication signed “ Observer.” The charter for this Railroad was obtained at the last session of the South Carolina Legislature, and we learn is a perpetual one, and makes Augusta the terminus of the road. We are not, at this time, prepared to say that the Savannah River Valley Railroad enterprise is less or more worthy of the consideration of Augus ta, than the Edgefield and Augusta Railroad. Both are now before the people of Augusta, and we trust they will receive that full and timely consid eration which the important hearings and interests involved, demand. There were conditions, we learn, affixed to these charters, by the last Legislature of South Carolina, which are regarded as very objectionable. We are not fully apprised of the exact character of those conditions. When they are well known, and tho roughly examined, it will be time enough to repu diate both, or select either of the enterprises. Granite Mills Flour. In the commercial department of the Journal oj Commerce, on the 4th inst., we find the following paragraph: “Southern flour is 12%c, lower, with salesof7oo bids., at for mixed to good brands, and s9(<i;slo for fancy and extra. We notice a new brand, named “ Granite Mills,” just introduced from Augusta, Georgia, which promises to he a very desirable addition to our stocks for bakers’ use, being very strong. For family flour, a little more care or skill in bolting will he requisite to give it a high character.” We presume the above remarks refer to the qual ity of flour known as superfine—the finer quality, where the “ little more care or skill in bolting” is attended to, is classed here as “ extra family flour,’ ’ We know of no flour in the Union that should have a “ higher character” than the “ extra family” flour of several of the Georgia mills. Augusta and Waynesboro’ Railroad. This road has, since completion, been leased to the Central. The total earnings of lease $172,- 558.4 c The disbursements and liabilities $192,- 459.49. The deficit $19,903.09. The deficit is pro posed to be met by temporary loans. The report closes thus: ‘‘The freighting business must come chiefly from Augustr, the counties bordering ou the Georgia Railroad, and those lying North of it. For this business we have competitors in the Charleston Railroad, and the boats on the Savan nah river. Through these channels it has long flowed, and from them it may he difficult to divert. But uc Imre a business to build up, and it mad be done from the trade of thosi sections. The question is, can we make it to the interest of the Merchants of Augusta and the country above to deal with us ? There can ho no doubt but we may, if wo transact their business with promptness and dispatch, and deal justly and liberally with all whose conven ience, business, or interest, our road and its man agement may affect. And as we have the ability, disposition, and determination to do this, there is no reason why we should not gradually increase the. business of the road, and make it remunerative to the stockholders, and a convenience and benefit to the public. paragraph latest accounts from Albany, N.

Commodore Gregory has taken command of the i new steam frigate Merrimac, at Charlestown, Mass., ■ which is nearly ready for sailing. Robert C. Gilchrist, Esq., has been duly ap- j pointed a Commissioner of the Court of Claims, j in and for the District of South Carolina. Margaret Oliphant is the authoress of “ Zaidee,” a romance which has just been concluded in Black wood’s Magazine, and which many readers have attributed to Buhvcr. Letter-writers from Harrriburg, Pa., say that Governor Porter’s chances for election as United States Senator are daily improving, and that his success is more than probable. The Governor is engaged in the iron business. We learn from the Lauresville Herald that Charles Allen, Esq., a venerable revolutionary soldier, died at his residence in that district, on Saturday, the sth instant, in the 03d year of his age. Mrs. Sophia Ann S. Ladd, relict of the late Wm. Ladd, of Portsmouth, N. H., President of the Amer ican Peace Society, died of lung fever on the morn ing of the 20th ult., at the residence of Rev. S. 11. T> ——» seventy-five years. M u. Ttler, Esq., late of Charles City County, died at his resilience in Norfolk city, on Tuesday morning last, of consumption. He was the broth er of the Hon.

The “ Monroe Doctrine” is compressed in the sentence of one of Mr. Monroe’s messages, “that the American continents, by the free and inde pendent condition which they have assumed and maintained, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers.” A Mrs. Lucinda Thompson recently obtained a bill of divorce from her husband, in Crawford county, (Ohio,) Common Pleas, at BP. M. At 10 o'clock the same evening, she was married to a Mr. Talcott, in the presence of the Court and Bar. They have a "fast'' way of doing business in Crawford. Black Bashaw, a horse well known, died on Saturday, the 29th ult., of colic or inflammation of the intestines, at Tullytown, Bucks countv, Pa. Bashaw was a beautiful glossy black horse, with white hind feet, and a stripe in the face, llis height was fifteen hands three inches. He was much admired by the best judges for his majestic form and elegant carriage, strength and size. Samuel Rogers, banker and poet, has at last yielded the life on which he had so strong a hold ; he died on the morning of the 18th of December last, aged ninety-six years. Rogers had probably a larger experience of life than any mau of modern times ; for, as long as his life was, he lived every day of it. He published his first volume of poems in 1787, and thus made liis dehut before the great grandfathers of the present generation. Mr. Schleiden, the Minister resident of the Re public of Bremen, waited upon Lieut. Maury a few days ago, with a highly-wrought and beautiful gold medal, which was presented with a very com plimentary letter. The medal hears the inscrip tion : “To the promoter of science, the guide of navigators—Lt. M. F. Maury— an honorary ac knowledgment of the Senate of the Republic of Bremen.” We learn from the New Orleans press, and through private letters, that the amount of produce landed at the wharves of that city, the present sea son, has no parallel in all its past history. The effects are very sensibly felt in the greatly en hanced price of labor, particularly that required in the business usually transacted on the levee. As an instance, it may be stated that $1.50 is charged per load by the drays and wagons, and a common dav - laborer commands $5 per day. From the Wash ington Star. Interesting and Important from Nicaragua We have private advices from Nicaragua by the last steamer, which tell of the re-organization of the government, deposed not long since by Walker, at a point in the north section of the Republic, and that Honduras has sent troops to its aid, &c. The letter to which we refer, says: “ President Estrada, who - left Granada just before Walker took that city, has re-organized the Nation al Government in the Department of Segovia. He lias with him the minister of finance, General Mar tinez, the superior military chief of the department of the east—Granada—and nearly all the officers of the army of the late General Corral, and many other citizens, proprietors and notables of Nicara gua, and is at the head of the national forces. “The governments of Salvador and Honduras, far from sympathising with Walker, have recognized the national government of President Estrada, and Honduras has sent to him a considerable bodv of troops. The two expeditions sent by Walker against the department of Segovia and Matazalpa have been defeated by the national troops and one of the killed is General Valle or Chelan, the person who denounced General Corral. The cities that have fallen under the oppression and tyranny of Walker have been abandoned by their male Inhabitants. Walker, to oblige them to return, published a de cree, carrying with it the penalty of a fine of from to #IO,OOO against those who would not return. Walker lias seized the effects of many of those who have refused obedience to bis degree, and has of fered them at public sale; but all persons (natives and bona fide resident foreigners have refused to buy on any terms property thus pretended to have been escheated. “All the silver taken in the raids of Walker has been distributed among the chiefs of the pirates. French carried away with him some #9,000 in sil ver and #-20,000 in drafts upon the Transit Compa ny. which had been accepted and since paid. The soldiers ■of Walker) have not yet received even the first dime of the money stolen, as I explain above, from Nicaraguans. ‘All the citizens of the country rest in terror under the violence exercised by Walker, and many of those ('strangers) who were under him, have abandoned him on realizing the desolation and real condition of the country. The few naturalized citizens, who called on Walker first to enter the country, in order to gratify their own ambition and desire for vengeance, now weep over the scenes of blood and misery which they have thus brought on Nicaragua, anil there has re turned to them the spirit and instinct of self-pres ervation. in force equal to that with which it actu ates all other citizens of Nicaragua. Walker is surrounded with enemies in disguise, who remain about him only in the hope of meeting an oppor tunity to fall on and kill him. “ The commotion and reaction throughout the country is so general and so spontaneous, that M. Roman Rivas, the son of the President created by Walker, and held in fact as his prisoner and pup pet, has organized a flotilla in San Juan del Norte, composed of six boats and eighty men. He has j gone up the river with this force to take possession ■ of Castillo Viega and San Carlos, and hold them j against the fillibusters. “ President Estrada has not onlv his own forces i and those sent to his aid by Honduras, but C’osta ! Rica has already on the wav to join him three thou j sand men, while other troops are moving to his aid from Gunanacaste and Guatemala. "The want of arms, the great distance to be tra velled, and the little security of their routes of : march, have alone prevented the complete defeat of Walker to this rime. The newspapers of the United States in the interest of Walker are striving to present a false picture of Nicaragua. The situation of things her by no means accords with their representations of them. Thev are fal sifying every tiring and deceiving, with misrepre sentations of the truth, the moral sentiment, and conscience of the people of the United States.’’ This letter reached us in French, and we trans- , late it for the information of the Stars readers. 1 The writer we know well by reputation—is a nat uralized citizen of Nicaragua of high character and standing. A dispatch from Washington, dated the 11th in stant, says: “ The Supreme Court this morning sustained j the claim of Pearson B. Reading to an extensive ranche at Buena Ventura, in California, thus as- j firming the principle established in the Fremont case. Therefore, the fact that Reading acted with j the United States forces against Mexico, does not ! invalidate the grant of the Mexican government.’’ From the Washington Union. Congressional. THIRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS —FIRST SESSION. Washington, Jan. St. —Senate. —The Senate did sit to-day. House. —The proceedings of yesterday in the House were characterized by a determination, on the part of a large majority! to persevere in the session to a late hour. A number of ballots were | taken, and, as usual, some most significant debate. 1 Mr. Smith, of Tennessee, delivered an able speech iu defence of the administration and the Demo -1 cratic party. Mr. Whitney followed iu a defence of the Bth article of the ’ Philadelphia platform. Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, called out Mr. Giddings, of | Ohio, in commenting upon a letter written by the I latter, in which Mr. Campbell was spoken of. Mr. I Talbott and Mr. Campbell, of Ky., both made I personal explanations. In the course of the bal -1 lotting, Mr. Robison, of Pa., who had voted steadi- I ly for Mr. Banks, rose and stated that, inasmuch as Mr. Banks had not yet declared himself a mem ber of the American'Order, and as there were doubts about it, lie wanted to know if he was at tached to the Order; and if he was not, lie (Mr. Robison 1 would no longer vote for him. This call ed out Mr. Damrell, of Massachusetts, who again certified to Mr. Bank’s Americanism. To this, Mr. Carlile, of Virginia, an American member, wanted to know if Mr Banks was a Rockwell American 1 or a Gardner (national) Know Nothing. To this no satisfactory answsr yvas returned, nor to the de mand of Mr. Robison, and the latter changed his vote from Banks to Pennington. It was apparent that if Mr. Banks was proved to be a Know Noth ing he would lose some votes. The next most important scene was the brilliant and remarkable speech of Mr. Caruthers, of Mis souri, tvho went on to show wliv he could not vote for Mr. Fuller, who was put forth as a national man, and yet voted for Mr. Pennington, for Speaker, with ; the fact, in the memory of the members of the last House, that Mr. Pennington had voted for Mr. El liot’s preparatory proposition to repeal the fugitive slave law, and in the present Congress was himself voting for Banks, (ultra republican and know noth ing,) while Mr. Fuller tvas being voted for bv tueky, HTsfrifh’ .-uTA'D the gentleman (Mr. Caruthers) was not a Whig; and if so, why he acted with the Democrats and opposed the Whigs? It is impossible to describe justly the reply of Mr. Caruthers, his retorts upon • Mr. Cox, his admirable defence of his vote for Col. Richardson, and the extinction of the Whig party iu the embrace of Know Nothiugism. The House . was intensely absorbed, except when the wit and repartee of Mr. Caruthers excited irrepressible laughter. The Democrats, throughout the long ■ session, and up to the hour when this abstract is 1 prepared, voted in unbroken column, and made 5 few explanations, contending themselves with al lowing their principles to speak for them. 'The 1 House was still in session at the hour of going to press. Washington, Jan’v. in.—Senate.- —Mr. Clayton submitted a resolution calling on the President of the United States for a copy of a letter from Lord John Russell to Mr, Crampton, dated January 19, 1853, in which it was declared that the British Government “intend to adhere strictly to the treaty of Washington, of the 19th of April, 1850, and not to assume any sovereignty, direct or indirect, in Central America.” The resolution was adopted. A resolution was also adopted authorizing the President of the Senate to assign rooms in the north wing of the Capitol Extension for the use of the Court of Claims, during the present session of the Supreme Court. Several memorials were presented of officers of the navy complaining of the action of the naval hoard. An extended discussion on the subject arose, in which Messrs. Brodhead, Mason, Hale, Benjamin, Jones, of Tennessee, Mallory, Toucey, and others, participated. Without disposing of the subject, it was passed over informally; and, after au executive session, the Senate adjourned until Monday next. House. —-The resolution of the Democratic mem bers in their last caucus, to vote against adjourn ment, and to remain in session until a Speaker was elected, intended as a new demonstration of their disposition, if not of their ability, to bring about an oganization of the House, so far from having contributed to such n result, served only to in crease the animosity of the opposition, and the scenes which occurred on Wednesday night stand in striking evidence of this declaration. The ex periment intended to he tried by the Democratic party was tried, and it has proved to he a failure. From five o’clock on Tuesday until eight o’clock on Wednesday morning no ballots for Speaker were taken, until the most obstinate strugle on va rious propositions to adjourn, calls of the House, Ac., Ac., had been made by a portion of the Amer ican party, and defeated." After remaining more than twenty hours in continuous session, the Dem ocrats at last voted in a body for the adjournment, leaving the country to judge whether they, as a minority of the House of Representatives," could do anything more than they had done to effect the organization, and at the same time to adhere to their obligations to the Constitution. Excepting an occasional hurst of bilaritv during the protract ed sitting, caused by the good-humored speech of some one of the members, the temper of the House was exceedingly good, when we consider the exci ting issues involved and the nature of the divi sions of parties. Nothing decisive or important was accomplished during the night, and when the House adjourned, at half-past eight o’clock Thursday morning, it seemed to be as far from the election as when it assembled on Tuesday at 12 o’clock.

The Norfolk Argus states that no more than about 25 per cent, of the fig crop in that vicinity came to maturity; and assigns the yellow fever that prevailed there during the summer os the cause. Tt says : “ A large portion of every kind, except a small white variety, called the “celestial fig,” exhibited signs of decay before they were fully ripe. A small soft spot was first observed, generallv on the spot to-wards and nearest the ground. This in creased rapidly until the whole fig was a mass of very offensive ami disgusting putrid matter. It maybe worthy of note, too, that portions of the leaves on some of the shade trees changed to a dark color, and wethered as early as the middle of September.” The Rachel Troupe. The Charleston Courier, of yesterday, sars: “ We understand that in consequence of the con tinued indisposition of M’lle Rachel, she was una ble to perform at Havana, and the company was dissolved. M’lle Sarah Felix, and some of the members of tbe company, arrived yesterday morn ing in the Isabel. M’lle Rachel and others left in the British steamer for Southampton. No Speaker Yet. —Why don’t they fuse ? The people are getting tired of this torn-foolery. Near ly one hundred ballots have been taken to elect a Speaker, and there is no more prospect of succeed ing now than there was thirty days ago. What a spectacle to present to even our own country! to sav nothing about Ihe other nations of the earth, who are looking to the workings of this model Ite | public. The Democrats of the House are iu a mi : nority, and have nothing to contend for but their principles and position. | Why don’t the opposition fuse there as they did at home to get there? Republicans could vote for Know Nothings at home without any compunc tions of conscience. Why can’t they do so there ? And the Know Nothings, in turn, could vote for the blackest kind of republicans in order to defeat a Democrat. Has a change of place changed the propriety or the principle of the thing? Sam and Sambo were lovely in life —why should they thus separate in death ? “When a man ceases to be consistent, he ceases to be honest.” [Cleveland Plain Dealer. Within a few days past, we observe in our Balti more exchanges, a’suit was brought before Justice Durham, by John W. Bloomer, against the Gas Light Company of Baltimore, to recover damages in consequence of the withholding gas from him. It was set forth by the plaintiff that the previous occupant of the store was in arrears for gas, but that he had offered, and was willing to pay, for all that had been burnt since he had come in posse* sion of the business, but the Company refused to allow him any light without the entire bill was set tled. The counsel for the Company contended that they had the right to withhold of supply as they thought proper. The Justice, however, thought differently, and gave judgment for #IOO damage*.
