IMILY CONSTITUTION ILIST BY JAMES GARDNER. WEDIIBIDAY KORMING, JAS’V. 1«. River News. The river is iu good boating order. The Au gusta is at the wharf and will probably depart for Savannah to-day. 'alley River Railroad Charter. The amended charter for the Savannah River \ alley Railroad Company, passed by the recent legislature of South Carolina, will be found in an other column of our paj>er this morning. The charter for the Edgefield A Augusta Railroad Company, is too long for us to promise its publica tion entire. We have it, and will exhibit it to any person who desires to read it. Augusta and Waynesboro' Railroad. In our notice of the report of the Directors of this road, we should have adopted more explicit terms. Ahe deficit referred to, was after purchas ing three locomotives, three passenger and six baggage and mail and fifty box and platform cars. The receipts, over|disbnrseinents for the past year, amounted to and the deficit resulted af ter )<aying for this out-fit for the road. . yf* In an affray near Barnwell C. H. recently, Sam no, Jbfcoat and Thomas Chav stabbed and mangled each other very severely. Ruin. 1-5? A man by the name of Marlow, an Eng lishman, was frozen to death, at Newberry 0. 11., on the 3d inst. lie was a machinist. Joshua Sowdkn, the old City Marshal of Columbia S.

Strong suspicion rests upon a negro. Ir'/’" Eieut. Hautscff, who was supposed to have been killed by the Indians in Florida, was subsequently found alive, and he is now in safe quarters and doing well. I'he Know Nothings still defining their Positions. Me continue to publish portions of the interest ing snd edifying debates, in the House of Represen tatives, showing the variant and conflicting views oi the Know Nothings upon fundamental articles 'fl their creed. Even the Southern Know Nothings are at loggerheads on radical points. The Roman Catholic proscription, which was so important a feature in the Know Nothing programme during the contests of last summer, is now a bone of con tention which is dividing the harmonious fraterni ty of Know Nothings south of Mason & Dixon’s hue, and threatens to shiver into fragments the Southern wing. With such a picture of distracted councils, how is it possible for this organization to effect any good for the country ? With all their ef forts to tiud common ground for harmony ol thought and action, the Know Nothings cannot hold together the repellant fragments of their own party How, then, can these Americans hope to rule America? There are supposed to be about one hundred and seventeen Know Nothings in Con gress, all elected on the one agreed upon proposi tion that "Americans should rule America,’’ though disagreeing among themselves on the Catholic question, and the celebrated Twelfth Resolution oi their Philadelphia platform. Vet they cannot come together upon any member of their Order, as fit to be entrusted with the Speakership? What a com mentary upon their proposition above quoted! “ A house divided agaiust itself cannot stand." V portion of ’he Virginia Know Nothings would knock from under the edifice the twelfth Resolu tion. This careens the ricketty concern in a North ern direction, rendering it rather unsafe for South ern politicians to dwell therein much longer. The Louisiana Know Nothings and the Mobile District of the Alabama fraternity are tugging manfully to pull away the Roman Catholic proscription pillar ■ I the edifice. Mr. Smith, of Alabama, i* pressing his back manfully on the other side of this pillar, to keep it in its place, but with ali the Northern aid which rallies to him, it begins to tremble and tot ter. When these two pillars are gone, away goes the house lira! Sam built. Tiie fraternity wilt have to coine together, and star; a new edifice, from the foundation, ou a more solid basis, and with souuder materials. The old Episcopal Church on Sixth street in Washington city has been purchased by the Ro man Catholics, and is to he placed under the charge of Rev. J. B. Do.vki. vn. It would scent that the Catholics are thriving under persecution. InrsutusT. —Reverend Usnuy Wkbd Bhbcubb in his last letter in the New York Independent-, thus gives his opinion upon farming upon borrowed capital: “ No blister draws sharper than “interest” does. Os all industries, none is comparable to that of interest. It works day and night, in fair weather and in foul. It has no sound in its footsteps but travels fast. It gnaws at man’s substance with invisible teeth. It binds industry with its film, as a tlv is bound upon a spider’s web. Debt rolls a man over and over, binding him hand and foot und letting him hang upon the fatal mesh until the long legged interest devours him. There is no crop that can afford to par interest money on a farm. There is but one thing raised on a farm ilke it, and that ts the Canadian thistle, which swarms new plants every time you break its roots, whose blossoms are prolific, and every flower the father of a million seeds. Every leaf is an awl, every branch a spear and every single plant is like an armed host. The whole plant is a torment and a vegetable curse. And yet a man had better mako his bed of Canadian thistles, than attempt to lia at ease uuon interest. < 'arretpemdenoe of the CknutUuiiQnaUit. GEORGIA EEGINL YTERE. Millkdgevillk, Jan. 14, Tha Sonata and House war-' compelled to adjourn to-day, until to-morrow morning, without transact ing any business, as a quorum was not in atten dance in either House. The recent disagreeable weather lias, for several days past, prevented the regular connection of many of the railroad trains, and so seriously impaired the roads and bridges ;.s to reader staging impracticable, and in many places impossible, hence the failure of members to arrive at the appointed time. This evening's train brought in near thirty ; more than half of whom have sped p dav or two at away station, for the want of con veyunce. With the number that will reach her to-night, I presume an organization may beetFected in the morning.

Wut Senator Hale hates President Pierce. —A Washington letter gives the {billowing expla nation of the bitter personal enmity of John P. Hale, the Abolition leader in the Senate, towards the President. The writer says : Hale’s speech in the Senate in answer to the President's imputations upon the motives of iho minority of northern voters, produced a strong impression. It was bitterly personal, but no man. ha* had greater provocation ior invective than the New Hampshire Senator, whose influence at home w ith the Democratic party was crushed by the efforts of Mr. Pierce. It is said that when Hale, then a Democratic member of Congress, stood out against the annexation of Texas, his enemy rode sixty miles at night in a chaise, to prevent the Democratic paper, of the follow ing day, from taking sides with his insubordina tion. The mercury stood at thirty-two degree* b*low *»ro at 3t- Paul a on the 84th »lt From the Xational Intelligencer. Paris Correspondence. Pari.-. December 18 1855. —It is very evident that all classes in this Empire are desirous of peace, including the Emperor himself. It is required for th» stability of every thing, the throne included. Every body talks about peace, and it is the upper most" thought at present in the minds of all ! French men. The press of this countrv, girdled and restricted as it is, would not dare to write so much on this subject were it not the earnest and longing desire of the Government, llEmpire est ia /Miij. It appears rather a paradox, but the fact is that this war has confirmed those celebrated words, for if victories do not follow each other as { in the time of the great Nadoleon, LEmpire sera j perdu , the fearful expenses, horrid waste of life, j general distress throughout France from the cha- I teau to the cottage—for all feel the expenses—the ‘ high price of food, and still higher prices antici pated, the cry of the hungry and the unemployed, and the depression of commerce and manufac tures, all combined and acting upon the popula tion, will, if continued, cause trouble in the Em- j pire, and in 1556 may be one of the most memora- l ble years of history. That there is also distress in Russia, arising from I the present war. there is no doubt; but it is on a inncli more limited scale, and does not affect the great mass ot the population, but is principally confined to the foreign traders, the bankers, and such as reside in the great cities, who are really sufferers, and among them may be included the wheat growers of the Danubian provinces. No na tion has exhibited such devoted patriotism and liberality. The voluntary gifts to the war are very great, both in numbers and amount. A great iron house, who might be supposed to he very heavy sufferers by the war from the decrease of the for eign exports, have voluntarily given the Emperor! one million of dollars; a banking house in St. Pe tersburg lias, in like manner, contributed seven hundred thousand dollars; Demidoff’, the rich no ble, contributes as a voluntary offering, besides his regular taxes, three hundred thousand dollars per annum whilst the war continues; whilst hun dreds of thousands of others contribute with ; equal liberality, according to their means ; and, if I it should be necessary, the Greek church of Rus- • sia, the richest in the world, would devote all its | wealth in support of the war—the nobility equally j so; and the very serf's would volunteer life and for tune t many of them are very rich) for the Czar, re- i ligion, and country. I n Russia, this is a national ! and religious war, and us such t\ ill be maintained j by all classes to the most desperate extremity. Tic Russian finances, thus far, are good and iu I t healthv condition, and the general opinion is that ; they will continue so, and that new loans can be negotiated; and if such and other means were to fail, the clergy, nobles, and rich men would come forward promptly with their mighty resources. The expenses of a Russian army are not half those of tne French troops. Besides, they are car rying on this war at home, and have not the im mense drain of a foreign expenditure, and no fleet, nor hundreds of transports and steamers lo main tain, but only the army. Nor has the trade and commerce of Russia suf fered to the extent that the British press represents. No greater proof of this need he required than an xamination of the St. Petersburgh and Moscow price currents, by which it will be seen that the prices of Russian productions rule very nearly, and, iu the most important items, quite as high as be fore the war. Land transportation in Russia is very cheap, and especially in winter on the snow, when all supplies of colonial and other foreign merchandise are rapidly transported in immense quantities into and all over the Empire, and its productions, in like manner, brought to the Prus sian and other neutral ports for export in the spring and summer. All the materials of war, as sulphur, -altpetre, powder, arms, See., arc being constantly sent into Russia by continued trains of Herman wagons, or by sleds when the snow is on the ground, which it is from November until April, without intermission, in Russia and the territory immediately adjoining her. Wheat, and that prin cipally in the Southern provinces, is almost the only article which is lower in price ; and while the war has depressed that article in Russia, and given cheaper bread to her subjects, it has had directly the contrary effect in England and France, and the high price of it is one of the most formidable ami tlarming difficulties that are staring the two latter Governments in the face. Prussia and Sweden are profiting greatly by this condition cf things, and many immense fortunes are now making there. It should be, and no doubt is, a great inducement for both of those na tions to keep out of this war, to say nothing of the fact that the capitals of both would most pro bably, in such an event, he in possession of Russia in a Very short period after hostilities wore com menced. Russia, under this war, is fostering her manu facturers, and, if it continues a few years, from being, after the United States, one of the best customers of England, she will require but little of her fabrics. The Emperor Alexander is very popular, but he has not the talems, decision, nor force of charac ter of his father, the late Emperor, who, if he had lived to conduct this war, would have been uni versally admitted to be “a great man,” which he really was. It is said that a few hours before his death the chamber was cleared of every body but the Empress and his son Alexander, when he spoke of the war, which he called an unjust one. It was on the above occasion that Alexander pledged him self to his dying father never io make peace except j on honorable and lofty terms, and that he would, agreeably to his dvmg injunctions, support the re ligion and honor of Russia. This, i fear, is destined to be a fearful war, in which all parties will suffer dreadfully—England more than France, and both more than Russia. J have no confidence in the peace rumors, unless the Allies are willing to agree to terms which they have heretofore rejected. One serious misfortune in the field to the latter would probably result in placing Austria, Prussia, and a large portion of Germany on the side of Russia. From high au thority f know their nobility and their armies are almost exclusively in favor of Russia, and it is gen erally believed, a large majority of their popula tion. The Socialists, Red Republicans, and the revolutionary spirits generally, are with the Allies, as they believe that Lord Palmerston intends to have a war of opinions, when such scum are thrown to the surface and have a chance to rule. Russia has recently made a loan, and though the British papers notice it as a proof of her exhausted condition that she had to go to Berlin to obtain this loan, yet if the war continues, England her self, as well as France, will have to knock at all the doors of the Continent for the same purpose, and even now the continental bankers are largely interested in the French and English loans, though nominally negotiated at London and Paris. A member of Parliament told me very recently that the next loan by England would be for twen ty-five millions of pounds sterling, and France will soon require another of nearly equal amount. Both will be obtained without much difficulty, but fu ture ones will depend very much on the events and prospects of the war. I see no reason to change nty previous views as to the deficiency in the supply of breadstuff's, and that France will require a foreign supply of from twenty-five to thirty millions of bushels of wheat. There is but little prospect that food of all kinds will decline; certainly not materially until the new harvest. We have a great many Americans at present in Paris, and the erv is “still they come.” The gaiety of tin city has not yet fully commenced, nor will it until after Christmas!. as the noblesse are still at their chateaus. A few evenings since I was at a small parly at the hospitable mansion of our fellow-citizen, Mr. Walsh, whose amiable and excellent wife receives every Friday. 1 was highly gratified on this occa sion in meeting our country woman, Mrs. May, and her highly gifted daughters, particularly Miss Ju liana, who, for the last three or four years, lias been perfecting herself in music in Italy, and in tends devoting herself to this fascinating profes sion. She sang three or four times to the perfect delight of all present. She has a'most powerful, sweet, and perfectly well-toned voice, which has been most exquisitely cultivated. Several distin guished musical dilettanti were present, who could scarcely believe that one not a native of Italy, and especially that une idle sauvage of America, could attain such perfection in the divine nrt. She will certainlv deserve, and no doubt will receive, a dis tinguished reception on her return to the United States as a musical artiste.

Robt. K. W. Allstox, President of the Senate. James Simons, Speaker House of ‘Representatives. Front, the Washington Star. Who Walker Is. Washington, Jan. 7, 1856. W. D. Wallach, Esq.— Dear Sir: As your readers hear a great deal in these “ latter days ” about General William Walker, it may be well enough to tell them wito ho is. 1 accordingly con dense from a narrative furnished by an intimate friend of Walker the following particulars, which, if von choose, you may publish in the Star: William Walker was born in Nashville, Tennes see, and is now about thirty-three years old. His father is James Walker, "Esq., a citizen of Nash ville, of Scottish birth, and very much respected. His mother was a Miss Norvell, an estimable lady, front Kentucky. Walker, after quitting school iu his native State—which he did with much credit und honor—commenced the study of medicine iu the University of Pennsylvania, where he gradu ated. He then went to Europe, entered ihe medical schools of Paris as a student, received a diploma there, and, after some time spent in travel, returned to this country, went to Nashville, and commenced the study and practice of the law. Walker is thus both lawyer and physician. From Nashville lie went to New Orleans, and was, for some time, edi tor of tiie Orescent. In June, lbso, he went to San Francisco, and became one of the editors of the /Rrald. While in this position, an article appeared in the Herald animadverting upon the judiciary, to which exception was taken by Judge Parsons, of the District Court, who forthwith summoned hint before his court, and inflicted on the editor a tine of SSOO. This Walker refused to pay, and was ac cordingly imprisoned, but was subsequently dis charged on a writ of habeas corpus, issued from the Superior Court, which action was sustained hv the Legislature at its next session. The next enter prise in which Walker was engaged, was the fa mous expedition to Sonora, with the disastrous re sult of which your readers are as familiar as they arc with his more recent history. From the above, it may be seen that Walker is of respectable family, intelligent, well-educated, a regularly trained physician, and a graduate of one of the best schools in America, lie is, besides, a man of indomitable courage and perseverance. When a student in Philadelphia, strange as it may seem, lie was remarkable for his diffident and ever taciturn manner and gentle disposition. In person, he is rather under than above the medium height, and was formerly of fair complexion, somewhat freckled face, with light hair, grey eyes, and high check bones. In giving the above particulars, which refer mainly to points that are creditable to him, it is not my purpose to palliate in any way ilis tillibusteriug propensities. If. From the Federal Union.
