We publish, almost entire, the views of “ A Statesman” which recently appeared in the Debate, the leading French paper in t’aris. The writer is supposed to he the Emperor Loris Napoleon. It hus created considerable opposition in England, it the Tuns* can lie considered as the exponent of public sentiment. The truth is, France is not able to carry on this war much longer, and is negotiating tor a peace, while England, equally crippled iu resource#, is disposed to roar lustily, for effect elsewhere. The people of the United States have heard the lion roar, in days gont by, aud care as little for it now us then. The Philadelphia Pennsylvanian contra dicts the statement that the election of Senator Bigler was a triumph of President Pierce over Mr. Buchanan. It is well known that Mr. Biol ek is the warm personal and political friend of Mr. Buchanan, and both very partial to President Pierce and his Administration. The Washington Union, say s : “Me regret to learn that lion. John G. Miller, ol the Missouri Congressional delegation, is still confined at home by a violent attack of rheumatism, and which has deprived him of the power of walking without the aid of crutches.” Jty The entire Temperance Ticket, for Com missioner', of Cassville, was elected on the 14th instant. The number of Hebrews iu the great cities is thus stated: New York, twelve thousand; Phila delphia, two thousand five hundred; Baltimore, one thousand eight hundred; Charleston, one thousand live hundred; London, twenty thousand; Amsterdam, twenty-fire thousand; Hamburg, nine thousand; Berlin, five thousand; Cracow twenty thousand five hundred; Warsaw, thirty thousand : Rome, six thousand; Leghorn, ten thousand; Con stantinople, eighty thousand; Jerusalem, six thou sand ; Smyrna, nine thousand; Hebron, eight thou sand. In Berlin there are two thousand Christian Hebrews, also some thousands in England. Fifty eight clergymen of the Church of England are converted Hebrews. The antediluvian British legislator, Col. Sib inonv, dies and almost simultaneously an antedi luvian British Judge retires from his >eat in the Court of Exchequer, to the quiet serenity of the House of Lords, with the title of Ampthill.

Crime and punishment. —A correspondent of the Cincinnati (Ohio) Gazette, states that there have been five hundred murders in Hamilton county, Ohio, within the last fifteen years, and that but om man has been hung there for murder during all this time. Hamilton county is that in which Cin cinnati is situated. According to Mayor Ricb, the debt of the city ol Boston, in addition to the water debt, amounts to *2,837,186.dfi; to meet which the city has cash and bonds to the amount of $1178,980.50, leaving a balance of indebtedness of #1,158,208.51. Tin water debt still outstanding is $5,241,961.11. G. W Mi'Hßay, proprietor of a billiard saloon m Memphis, Tennessee, was fatally stabbed l.v a man named Hudson, while engaged in playing cards at ins saloon, on the 2d of January. Hudson is a Texan, and a short time ago killed a Dr. Grant, in iloitstou, and made his escape. Governor Bigler, the newly elected United States Senator, from I’ennsyivania, has consented to re main at tire head of the Sunbnry and Erie Railroad Company, pto\ ided the retention of the presiden cy of the road does not interfere with his public duties.

General Scott, in his annual report of tlie condition of tlie army, urges a retired list, as there are some forty or fifty ©ni cer.-, mostly in tile higher commissions, rendered non-effective by tile infirmities of age, by wounds or chronic diseases, while thrice the number of junior officers are anxious for increased rank. He also recommends increased pay to the officers, and further says: "An increase of general officers is ft want very sensibly felt throughout i!,<■ army, and l beg to suggest one additional Major General, and two ad diti uial Brigadier Generals, to make, with the two Brigadiers of tlie Hue already in commission, five commanders for the geographical departments ol the tnnv, with six other Brigadier Generals for a. .'loots of theAdjufant General’s department, the - orps of engineers, the corps of topographical en gineers, the ordnance department, the commissari at of suirsistau.Ce, and the pay department respec tively.” AiiKKn i« Kt’ST mlk America, It' one not ac quainted with the tricks and falsifications of the Kuoiv Nothings should hear their war-cry of ‘ 4 Amer :<tn4 mud rule Aimri 'i lie would have strati:, c feelings, Let us examine into this empty brag, and so exiios" a new inconsistency of the Know V<*things.

All of these are natives of this country ; not a single one is of foreign birth; yet the Know Nothing cry is ‘•Amer icans must rule America !" Instead of the foreign born citizens of our country exerting a political potti-r eiputl to their njm'irit' power, they ate, in this res, wet, not represented in our national legis lature at aril.

Large Cargo of 4 Tender Lines.”— A New England geutleuian in California—savs the Alex andria Gauite —who corresponds with a young lady of this city, sent to his friend a letter, which arrived in the mails of the George Law, on the _ 4 ?th ult, and which comprises one hundred and forty mux pages of letter paper The Stars Shooting Wildly. The “combined Councils” of the Know Nothings of Richmond, Ya., have been perpetrating a very extensive bamboozling game, by adopting one of tbs Milledgeville “points of principle,” and mak ing it appear that the Georgia and Virgiuia Know Nothings are harmonious. The Richmond Whig says the meeting of the combined Councils of Richmond adopted “an Abolition programme,” and the friends of Botts and the meeting reply, that they got the resolution from one adopted at the Georgia Convention. But further investiga tion proved, that some “points” in the Milledge ville resolution were omitted in Richmond. We compare the two resolutions : H>* R • rhino it d ItSolution.

The American. Organ, of the 14th inst., still in sists that the much condemned resolution, adopted in Richmond, was taken from the Georgia “ points of principle.” The editor says : “ The Baltimore American Democrat, of last Sat urday, contains an urtiele under the head of ‘ The attempt to Abolitionize the American party in Vir ginia,’ which is too full of errors, both of opinion and fact, to he passed over without correction. That press assumes, that the adoption, by the com bined Councils of Richmond, on the Ist of January, of the series of resolutions (which we have hereto fore published) was an attempt to abolitionize the American party! Then this traitorous attempt originated with the American party of Georgia, one of whose resolutions was reiterated and en dorsed by the combined Councils of Richmond, and it is the main one of the two prominent re solves against which the Richmond ii'hig and the Baltimore Democrat have hurled their anathemas!” The Organ thus compliments the proceedings of the late Know Nothing Convention in Georgia. It is not wonderful, then, that Judge Cone was anx ious to adopt a different series of resolutions at the meeting of the party in Milledgeville. “ Nearly the whole North stands in direct antag onism to the “ twelfth plank.” Several of the Northern States declared in the National Council, then - desire to harmonize upon the basis of an ■ <■- clwion cf slavery from the platform. Georgia has responded to the proposition, as we understand, in a spirit of compromise on this question, hv the resolution which we have heretofore published. We regard it as the only feasible basis upon which the North and South can unite.” The Richmond JThig has stood square up to the Americans, and battled with uncommon zeal and tact against the Democratic party, and while it has given character and influence to the Know Noth ings in Virginia, it now fiends that it has warmed into life, an organization that compromises the rights and interests of the South. The editor now abandons the whole rickety concern, and is hence forth determined to occupy an independent posi tion and be prepared to “pitch into the Democra cy, orjur.y thing else—spurious Americanism, Bottism and. Abolitionism inclusive.” The Wh lip says “ Bolts and his friends occupy substantially the Black Republican platform.” The editor ought certainly to be a good witness in the case, as he has been working in the harness with “Boots and his friends” for some years past. This Richmond “ Black Republican” Know Nothing meeting, und the Rockingham, Va., meet ing, are creating some interest, and are straws upon the current of affairs, which indicate the course of the stream. We are very far from believing that any consi derable portion of the American party, of Georgia, can be drawn into the movements, now on foot to abolitionize the American party in the South. It is impossible that such an event can occur. But they should watch the political signs- the Butt’s epidemic may extend—othei ambitious men may arise who will bid for position among the North ern members of the party. While such action will not give prominence to men in the South, it will give strength and confidence to the Black Republi cans of the North. The future safety for the South, depends upon the united co-operation of her people, Tlie at tempt to delude the Know Nothings of Virginia by the adoption of a perve»ted resolution, which was announced as the voice of that party in Geor gia. should not be without its moral effect in this State. It shows “to what base uses” the party lias descended, and admonishes ns that the armed wooden house has been introduced into our .South ern Troy. If the scenes which are shifting »o suddenly, amt the new views so prominently set forth, do not arouse the people of the South—do not exhibit the ulterior designs of the prominent, wire-pullers in the Know Nothing organization we have placed too high an estimate upon the intelligence and patriot ism of the people of the South. From Washington. We have but little confidence in the statements which are daily sent forth from Washington by letter writers, in relation to matters which have not conic before the country through their legiti mate channels. The present disorganized eondi tiou of the legislative branch of the government, i is a favorable opportunity for indulging in an end- I less variety of speculations upon the probable ac i lion of the President. Below we give the letter of i ''lnn," to the Baltimore dated— \\ \suinotox, .tail, I<s, 1 - -i I. I The Cabinet have had under consideration the : expediency of suspending diplomatic intercourse with England, us a inode of resenting the refusal | of the British Government to afford reparation to , the United States lot th.: alleged violation of our I laws and natural rights, by recruiting troops in j this country. As no Congress is in existence, the i President cannot take the course I suggested yes terday--to send u special message io Congress, and devolve upon them the responsibility of action! ! for the protection of lips national character. He : may therefore take more direct means. The pro position before the Cabinet is to withdraw pur mm ! ister from England, and not send another until the Briti-h government shall comply with our demand for redress and satisfaction. There is little doubt that this course was determined upon last evening. The sitnatiou of the House and its utter aban donment of its cGlu titutiouul functions, will render necessary and afford an apology for the assumption i and exercise by the Executive of such powers us i the Constitution may confer upon him, under the most liberal construction of that instrument. Therefore, if 1 am not mistaken, the President is about to take some steps, independently of the . suspension of diplomatic intercourse with Eng land, which may precipitate an issue between this country and Gneat Britain. Ft is very important to the interests of the coun try that the Senate should Ire taken into the coun sels of the Executive government, and that the measures to be taken for the maintenance of the 4 honor of the country should at least have the sanction of that body. But no such measures as these, if taken while Congress is in its present paralyzed condition, will have the effect to induce tile British government to do us justice, or to change their policy in relation to the questions in dispute. The Executive power of such a government as this can command no re spect abroad, unless supported by the representa tives of the people But Congress is now regarded abroad as it is regarded here as a body more dan gerous to peace at home than formidable to foes abroad. lon.

Goodhue, Dem., received ; the highest vote for Speaker and will probably be elected [communicated.] University of Georgia and State Student* No. a. The plan of selecting talented young men of mer it, who are not themselves, and whose parents are not able to incur the expense of a Collegiate edu cation, of educating them, free of the expense# of board and tuition, provided they will undertake to teach within the State for a limited time, commands itsell to our consideration in the three following points: L The benefit resulting to the young tuen select- ; ed, and to others similarly situated. -■ The benefit to the cause of education in the State, ia securing the active co-operation of these ; young men a# teachers. 3. The benefit to the University. There is, in every community and State, a class of young men pssoessiag merit, talent aud poverty. The desire for education, the craving of the mind after knowledge, in some instances, causes the young aspirant to forego all pleasures, and almost to deny himself the necessaries of life, to enable him to obtain the food which his mind desires. The habits of deep thought, energy and self-deni al, thus acquired in his youth, soon make him a man of mark and position. But to whatever posi tion he may arise, a constant source of regret and drawback to himself will be, that he did not enjoy the advantage of a complete education. The fact that he has taken a high position in sooiety, with out a Collegiate education, instead of being an ar gument against it, would only cause us to infer to what position he would have arisen had he not been thus deprived. The plan proposes to step down, as it were, is to the humbler walks of life, (thereby removing the odium that Colleges are of use only to the rich) to take the most talented and meritorious, and give them, free of expense, all the advantages of a Uni versity education. It proposes to benefit, exclu sively, those young men who possess the two greatest incentives to exertion—” the pinchings of poverty and the goads of genius.” The large ma jority of young men designed to be immediately I benefited by this plan, have probably never, for a ! moment, dreamed of enjoying a College education; | but upon seeing their companions enjoying this ad vantage, they will be stimulated to exertion to im prove their own education. And this we consider one of the chief advantages of the system. It is the influence of example, and the great stimulus, that will thereby be given to the cause of educa tion. To secure the appointment, a certain pre paration will be required. Hence, many applicants will be induced to apply themselves assiduously, and if, at the proper time, they fail of receiving the appointment, the great desire of receiving a Collegiate education is implanted within the breast, and the aspirant is not apt to rest till it is gratified. Hence, in the course of a few years, there would be awakened, among the young men, an increased desire for education of a high order. The sons of the rich would not rest quiet, while the sons of their poorer neighbors were returning from College and outstriping them in the walks of life, and in ! this manner a general desire for education, of a I high order, would be extended. 2. That the State would he materially benefited Ln | the cause of education, needs to argument to show, j The services of all those thus educated would he ; secure in the business of teaching. There would ; be annually turned out a number of talented and well educated young men who would constitute an I effective corps of Southern-taught teachers—not to ! be simply teachers of common schools, hut to he | teachers of Academies of a high order. * Their education would fit them for this—aud from these Academies would issue the teachers of the primary schools. This plan has none of the objectionable features of a “ normal school,” and does not propose to educate normal school teachers, hut proposes to give young men all the advantages of the University, so as to enable them, if thev adopt the profession, permanently to establish Academies of the very hrst order. The return of these Students to their native counties, to establish a school, would do much towards increasing and I creating an enthusiasm in the cause of education. We might presume that fully half of all who would ! eujoy these benefits, would adopt the profession i permanently—consequently there would, in a short ' time, be a number (proportional to the number an nually educated) of Academies established over the State—which otherwise it is to he presumed j would not be. The business and promise of those j educated, being to teach, there would he, its it were, i a demand created fur scholars, and according to the ! laws of supply and demand, we may infer that the number of pupils would largely increase, i 3. We are conscientiously of the opinion that iu the course of time the plan would indirectly bene | fit the University. The history of the University of Virginia shows that it has very rapidly increas ed in numbers since the adoption of tliis system, and the general opinion seems to be that its popu larity in Virginia has been much increased thereby \ the vulgar prejudice that Colleges arc intended only for the rich, is destroyed, and tlie poor are brought directly to enjoy its advantage-. , One of the chief benefits resulting to the Uni versity would be (and it would be proper that she ; should receive some reward for her gratuitous la j bors ) the Academies thus established throughout tlie State, would be under the control of her own alumni. They would feel a warm interest in the prosperity of their alma mala, and would natural ly prefer sending their pupils where they were educated. Hence a more uniform system of educa tion would be established throughout the State i the same as adopted at the University. According to the Report of the Trustees, it is proposed thut live young men be appointed from each Congressional' IsUtrjot, imaking forty in alt,) under the name of ‘State Students of the' Univer sity of Georgia,” For them no charge would be made for tuition fees, and to each would be allow -1 cd #l5O a year to pav his board, Ac., provided he would pledge himself to teach, within the State, at ! some public or private school, as many-years as he ; enjoyed the privileges of being a Student free of expense. The number proposed no doubt is rather large to begin with, and it would be well to com ; lienee with a smaller number—say twenty-four ■ and if in time it pi used Siucecosfiil, this could he I easily increased, as the wants of the State require. To educate this number, (twenty-four) there would be required an annual appropriation from tlie State of $;',6.00. And we would especially in sist that this is not an appropriation to the Univer sity, It is aii appropriation to the people of the State - an appropriation to educate (he poor. Whatever appropriation, the members of the Legis ture in their wisdom may sue proper to make to the University in answer to the memorial of the Trustees, i and we hope they will do all that the cause of education m the State of Georgia de mands,) the funds necessary to develop this plan of educating meritorious young men at the expense of the State, should not therein be included, as that would not be an appropriation to the Univer sity. Indeed it would he well to make the appro, priution aim >tal, and if at any time it was round that the plan was not fulfilling expectations, it could be withheld. Thus, in addition to the ap propriation which may he made for the University, should be added the annual appropriation for the purpose of educating teachers. A very important question arises, if the Legisla ture grant the appropriation, liow shall the State Students be appointed ? Upon this, in a very great measure, would depend the success of the system. The most appropriate body to make the selections would be the Faculty of the University. To secure »lie appointments there should bo written testimo nials presented, clear!v establishing these three points, 1. That neither the applicant nor his parents are able to incur the expenses of a College educa tion. 2. That the applicant possesses talent, merit, and industrious habits. i. That he has made such progress in his studies us would enable him to join at least the Freshman Class. In no case should an appointment he made tin- , less these three conditions were fulfilled, or shown to be by testimonials. There are very many and obvious reasons whv the appointing power should be in the hands of the Faculty. They being aloof from local and extra neous influence, would be more apt to give tlie ap pointment to the most meritorious, as it would be an object of interest with them to secure the most talented and meritorious, independent of every other consideration, Again, from some districts i there might be no applicants, while from others there j would be more than vacancies. In that case, they j could transfer, or appoint others from districts in I which there were no applicants; and if from any cause a vacancy should occur in a district, test!- , menials of applicants would beat hand, from which the vacancy could be supplied. Me have thus in simple terms discussed the merits and details of this system of “ State Stu dents, the consideration of which we would com mend to the attention of the members of the Le gislature, who are interested in the cause of educa tion in our State. It has done much good else- : where. It can do great good in Georgia. Accident.— We understand that General Webb is recovering from the effects of a recent accident which might have proved fatal. The General was shaving himself before a coal fire, and suddenly turning around, his dressing gown was whisked into the grate, where it caught fire, and enveloped him in a blazing “fire in the rear.” He, with great presence of mind, leaped into bed, and wrapped himself in the blankets extinguished the names. The General is rapidly recovering, and a wag, remarking his absence from the lobby of the House, said that he supposed he had simply ‘‘paired off with Horace Greelev.” U'athinyton SUn- Additional by the America. The peace negotiations are becoming more com plicated than ever. Esterhazy presented to the pro posals, backed by Austria, to the Czar on the 28th ult., but Nesselrode’s circular had previously put an interpretation on the third point which the al lies cannot admit, namely: that Russia and Tur key shall mutually agree on the strength of the fleet to be kept in the Black Sea. The allies, on the other hand, demand of Russia to cede the mouth of the Danube, which she refuses to do, hence the prospect ot an amicable adjustment is very slight. Nesselrode has addressed a circular to the rep resentatives of Russia at foreign courts, stating that Russia accepts the third point of the ultrama- 1 turn of the Western powers, relative to the neu tralization of the Black Sea, in the following sense: “ That the right of Turkey to close the Straits be maintained ; that no ships of war he admitted into the Black Sea except Russian and Turkish; that the number of ships be mutually arranged by Rus sia and Turkey, by special treaty by these two powers alone. The allies, of course, reject this in terpretation. Esterhazy reached Petersburg on the 26th, and on the next day laid his propositions before the Russian Cabinet. Count Buol subsequently com municated to Prince Gortschakoff at Vienna the terms on which the Western Powers would assent ( to peace, dating those terms, were approved by Austria. [These terms have been already pub lished J. Russia makes known in Nesselrode’s circular her unwillingness to treat for the neutralization of the Black Sea, but is expected that she will abso lutely refuse to the cession of the territory required to keep open the Danube. The Western Gazette states that an additional article touching the third point has been added to the treaty of December 2d, between Austria, France, and England. It does not, however, impose on Austria the obligation to take part in the war in case Russia refuses to accept the third point as in terpreted by Nesselrode. The latest accounts from the Crimea state that the Russian troops had been reinforced by two reg iments of Huzzars. Also, that large bodies of Russian troops were marching from the Crimea to j Bessarabia. There was no intention, however, of i evacuating their position, as their places will be : tilled from the reserves. From Asia intelligence has been received that Omer Pacha has returned to Sonkoum Kaleb, re nouncing his intention of making an attack on Putois. The Russians took possession of the defiles at Hussain as soon as Selim Pacha returned to Erse rouni. The greater part of the Russian army will winter at Kars. Many persons were quitting Erzeroum under ap prehensions of an attack from the Russians.

Description' —Bill is about 22 years old, about f. feet high, and weighs about 190 pounds. He is rather black, has a large mouth, and shows his gums when laughing; is rather slow spoken, and has but very little beard. He hail on when he left a snuff colored sack coat. I bought him from Joel Dorsey, of Columbia county, and he may possibly be trying to make his wav back. A white man, calling himself‘JAMES ROBIN SON, was seen talking with the Negro, and it is my opinion that he has been decoyed off by the said Robinson. Said white man gave his name as Rob inson, and also as Dorsey. Said Robinson ot Dorsey is about 28 or 30 years of age, with promi nent cheek bones, black whiskers and hair, weighs about 180 pounds, and speaks rather through his nose. 0. 11.
