Democratic Convention iu Alabama. This body has adopted a series of resolutions of the genuine Democratic type. They are in exact consonance with the principles promulgated bv the Democracy of Georgia, and just such as must be proclaimed by the Cincinnati Convention, and must be borne alofi on the banners of the Demo cracy, in the east and in the west and in the north aud in the south, during the approaching contest. We are indebted to the politeness ol' one of the gentlemen connected with Adam's Express Company for a copy of the New York Evening Ex preu, of Saturday evening last, in advance of the United States mail.

The Ohio Legislature convened at Columbus, on the 7th instant, and the House organized by the election of Nelson' H. Van Voorhis, Black Repub lican, as Speaker. In the afternoon, Gov. Meoill’s annual message was received, which occupied two hours in reading. It treats on local affairs exclu sively. The Cherokee belle, .Miss Jennie Hicks, was married on the ldtli of December, at the residence of Chief Joan Ross, at Tah le-anali, in the Chero kee Nation, to Mr. Steepler, brother-in-law to the Chief. Her pretty face and brilliant wit, it is sta ted, created many admirers in our northern cities and watering places during her vacations from school in New Jersey. Miss H. is a daughter of Judge Hicks. .Several cargoes of Chinese slaves have recently arrived at Callao, and other ships are expected. 4 u short time since landed five hundred and twelve persons, and had lost one hundred and twenty-two on the passage from Canton. The car go was sold iu a few days to good advantage. The owuers of farms find the Chinese slaves better workmen than oilier-. The dispatches recently sent to Mr. H( ohaxan are at unusual length, the administration having supplied him with every available document, to gether with instructions on the prosecution of the Central American question. The injury to the pine timber in Orangeburg District, from ilie late storm, is said to be incalcu lable, and only to be estimated by millions. The roads were rendered almost impassable.

The weather in Middle Florida ha* been very saver* Thu Presidency.— The Savannah Journal pub lishes a portion of a Otter from a Southeru Sena tor, from which we make the following striking passage: “ I am anxious to set- your comments on the Message. lam decidedly of opinion that Pierce ts the - proper candidate for the next trial, Tha South will be untrue to herself to forego the oppoi - tunity of a distinct trial of the Northern people upon the issue he boldly presents —and presents in the best possible way: not by party resolutions of * Convention, but as the matured judgment of a President, who, although a citizen of a Northern State, upon the responsibility of his oath to sup port and defend the Constitution, exposes the dan ger to the l nion from Northern aggression, and justifies the Southern States in their just and mod> ate course." Compliment to Prof. Lie her. The South Carolinian, of yesterday, savs: “We understand that a meeting ol‘ the students of the South Carolina College was held last eve ning, at which a resolution was passed unanimous ly requesting Prof. Lieber to withdraw his letter of resignation of his Professorship.” We clip 'he following paragraphs of news from the Savannah Groo/ian, 15ih ins;: Loan Association. —The sales of the Savannah Mutual Loan Association, last evening, were $■4,000, at 26 p r cent. The new Florida steamer, Thomas 0. Haight, which sailed hence on Friday, broke her larboard w heel near Pico Creek, and has returned for re pairs. Her passengers were lauded at Darien. The subscriptions to the Exchange Bank yester day amounted to something over half a million, ‘ii'per cent, of which was promptly paid in. The Bauk start* under the most favorable'auspieas Consistency of President Pierce. The Washington Union says: “The abuse showered upon President Pierce, because of hi- bold assertion and masterly vindi cation of the rights and duties of The States under the Constitution, seems to infer that all this was a new development of principle. It is, on the con trary, in exact ami conclusive consistency with the whole career of the President, from the beginning of his public life down to the moment of his elec tion as Chief Magistrate of the United States. He has never, for a moment, wavered on these great questions, llis record in both houses of Congress is so complete, that in 1852 it was compiled and circulated by the advocates of Gen. Scott, thrsugh the Northern States, to show that Gen. Pierce was completely identified with the very doctrines which he is now denounced for reiterating in his annual message! It is well to remind the country of a fact which the enemies of the Democratic party seem anxious to conceal.” Every word of this is true to the letter. The un- | compromising war that President Pierce has, dur- I ing his whole political career, waged upon Aboli tionism, has won for him the bitter hatred of the j whole crew. No Northern man is more obnoxious | to them, or has been more formidable to them, wherever, in the past history of the country, his I influence has been exerted. It was he who, for a j time, prostrated and drove from the State of New i Hampshire, John P. Hale, and this is the secret of the late furious personal assault of that inveterate agitator upon the President. Borne aloft to the United States Senate, on the great anti-Nebraska wave, which swept down so j many of the true and patriotic men of the North, . who helped to pass the bill, Hale now, from that j position, fulminates his thunders against the great j antagonist of his traitorous war upon the Constitu- I tion. The Freesoilers of the North, sympathizing ! with him, listen eagerly to his words, and South ern men, we are mortified to say, are engaged at j ; the same time with Hale, though for different pur- j poses, in the same work of denunciation. They war upon the President, and at the same time vote j for Henry M. F< llkr, of Pennsylvania, an original 1 anti-Nebraska freesoiler, the friend and ally of men I who were arrayed in hostility to the South when I her Constitutional rights were at stake. The fact that Mr. Fuller does not now advocate j the repeal of the Act, should not, of itself, atone I i for the past, or render him now acceptable to South i ern men. Even Horace Greblv concedes that the repeal of the Act is hopeless and impracticable. Were it otherwise, what assurance have the South that Mr. Fuller would not now be leagued with him to accomplish that result? We have not yet seen any confession, from the lips of that gentle man, of any change of opinion on the Constitu tional rights and bearings of that great measure. Mr. T. S. Piggott. This gentleman, the Southern Agent of the As sociated Press, for the Telegraph line, arrived in this city, from Columbia, yesterday. The Colum bia Carolinian, of the 10thinst., says: We regret the departure from amongst us of Mr. • T. S. Piggot, the Agent of the Associated Press, who left to-dav for Augusta. For two years he has ! been a very important acquisition to the daily press ;of our city. His energy, attention to business, ur j bauity and friendliness made him a general favor ; ite. We commend him to our friends at Augusta, I as worthy of their appreciation, while we give him up grudgingly. Another paper in Columbia, the Examiner, in its last issue says: In parting with Mr. Piggott, it is due to him from our business connection with him iu one of the daily papers of the city, to say, that he has dis charged his duty faithfully, promptly, and to the satisfaction of all concerned. He is a gentleman of courteous manners, very amenable in his inter course with the press, and very obliging in every respect in the various details connected with his position. The Association could have no more effi cient and courteous officer to attend to their in terests than he is, and we take great pleasure iu commending him to the kindness, courtesy and attention of our Augusta cotemporuries, cordially wishing him a pleasant residence among them. W e are pleased to welcome among us a gentle man so favorably announced, and trust that our intercourse with the Agent will be as pleasant and satisfactory as it has been with our cotemporaries in Columbia. We cordially welcome him to his post, aud to our city. The Recent Disturbances at Bethany College, Va. Mr. Philip Burns and nine other students who quitted Bethany College in November, have published statement of the reasons which in duced them to take this step. The question of slavery had often been publicly debated by North ern and Southern students previous to Sunday, Nov. 11, without causing ill-feeling on either side; but on that day, at the president’s request, Mr. Philip Burns chose lor the subject of a sermon, “The Great Principle of Liberty,’’ and alluded to West India emancipation. Theexeitement became intense, and a tremendous stamping and hissing, is is alleged, was made to silence him. Then about one-third of the audience rushed out with loud cries and imprecations. Stones were hurled against the house, and it, was proposed to conduct Mr. Burns to Buffalo creek, hard by, and baptize him in the name of the “peculiar institution.” The mob, however, were frustrated in their purpose through the vigilance of Mr. Burn’s friends. The next day about twenty Northern students held a meeting and resolved to leave the College, unless those connected with the mob were publicly rep rimanded or expelled. On the following day one of the Professors told them that if they did not return to their classes the Faculty had determined to expel them and publish their expulsion in all the leading papers of the Union. Ten of the twen ty students remained firm to the resolution they had pss.-.'d, and failing to obtain any redress, they quitted Bethany College.— Haltimo,r Son. Rains of Middle Georgia. —The following table exhibits the amount of rain which has fallen at this place, during the Inst six years, in inches and hundredths of an inch : 1850 1651 47.39 3-652 50.24 1853 .48.75 1654 44.35 1855 51.52 Total 295.51 Mean.... 49.25 The whole amount of rain falling on the whole surface of the globe within the above period would form an immense ocean more than tu •ftityfour nod a half ftl deep over the whole surface of the earth, and in that part of the world supposed to have been deluged by Noah’s flood, the amount falling in the same proportion over the whole Western Continent , would have probably covered the tallest mountains of Asia Minor. fntnil t /, a .
