DULY CONSTITUTIONALIST! BY JAMES GARDNER, TUESDAY HORNING, JAVY. 29. River News. The river is in good boating order. The steam- i er Augusta left on Saturday for Savannah, with ! eight hundred bales of Cotton, six hundred sacks | and four hundred barrels Flour, twenty-five liun- ! dreu bushels of Corn, and thirty bales of domes- ; tics, with sundry articles of way freight. To “A Citizen.” We indulge in no controversies with anonymous writers. I.ight in front of the Post Office. Many persons having business at the Post Office, and visiting the Reading Room, last evening, de sire us to make the inquiry—What is the reason the Lamp in front of the Post Office was not lit last night? Wood for the Poor. We shall be pleased to receive contributions of money from any of our citizens, to be applied to the purchase of wood for gratuitous distribution among the poor. It is totally unnecessary to makc anv special appeal, if the frozen earth beneath our feet, the cold atmosphere in which we move, and a general knowledge of the wants of the poor, on all such occasions, do not excite a benevolent feeling. Practical Charity. \V e were informed yesterday of an act of prompt and serviceable kindness to the poor of our city, by W»i. J. Eve, Esq., as worthy as it is character istic of the man. Learning on Sunday that many poor families were suffering during the present severe weather for want of wood, he went immedi ately to his plantation, and put early' yesterday morning in requisition every wagon he could load, and every animal that could [mil, and sent to tin City Hall for gratuitous distribution about twelve cords of wood. This one fine deed is better than a thousand fine words of sympathy for the poor. Snow ami Sleighing. Daylight on Sunday morning disclosed to out citizens the ground and roofs of houses covere* with snow to the depth of two or three inches, ant trees and shrubbery glittering and bending witl the weight of ice and icicles. Some rude, butjolh and successful efforts were made at sleighing, an the merry tinkling of bells were heard in man places, as rough sleds on wooden runners, passed b with their merry cargoes. Yesterday the sno\ commenced melting, and before night our strep were filled with mud, slush and snow in a trails live State. The sky continued of a dull grey hu the sun having peeped out for a moment. Sale of Negroes at Abbeville C. H. We call attention to the sale of about one km dred negroes, at Abbeville C. H., on the 13th an 14tb days oi February next, the announcement which will be found in our paper this morning un der the head of new advertisements. Southern Carriage Repository. We are requested to call attention to the advei tisement headed “Sign of the Skeleton Wagon. The British ship Kartell, Capt. Tt;ji.\E;: lying at \ t-uus' Point, below Savannah, and load ing for Liverpool, was discovered to be on fire, or Saturday last. About five hundred bales of Cot ton, and a quantity of Timber were on board.— Fire Companies from Savannah went down, am we presume, extinguished the lire without grea loss to ship or cargo. Mr. E.

The Boston Post knows a bald headed bachelot who is so sensitive upon the subject that he wil not go to the opera, for he is convinced many young ladies amuse themselves on these occa sions by counting the number of bald heads in thi house. The following is the result of the recent elections iu Edgefield District: “Tillman Watson, Senator; Thos. G. Bacon, Clerk : Janies Kidson, Sheriff; W. F. Durisoe, Or dinary.” The total number of votes polled was two thou sand five hundred and sixty-eight.” Rev. Joseph Goodman, of the North Carolina Conference, M. E. Church, died at his residence in Halifax, on the 17th instant. Austin 13ri in, of Fairfield District, was found frozen to death near his own residence, on Wednes day night. Gen. Scott, it is said, has failed to find anything in the eviden -e taken in the late Court Martial at New York, on Lieut. Ualdkman, to impeach the integrity of that officer, and has accordingly or dered him to report himself to his regiment for duty. A postal reform meeting was held at the As tor House, New York, a day or two ago, when Peter Cooper, Esq., was appointed Chairman. Several addresses were delivered, and it was determined to push the matter earnesly before Congress. The Nebraska legislature lias adopted a resolu tion requesting Governor Izard to proceed to Washington and use his influence ia obtaining the passage of a bill granung one hundred and sixty acres of land to actual settlers in that territory. The supply of warrants in the New York market Is increasing, and one hundred and sixty acre war rants have fallen off to $1@1.03 per acre. The other sizes are 51.05 31.03. T. C. Blanchard, Esq., late publisher and pro phet ir of the Jacksonville, florid* R-pui can, died at that place on the 2C>th inst., aged twen ty-three years and four months. The citizens of Louisvitie have decided, by a ma jority of thirteen only, to loan $1,000,000 to the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. Col. John P. Adams, late L”. S. Consul at La guyra, died in New York on the 22d instant, aged forty-three years. Dr. Henry Mitchell, of Norwich, Conn., and formerly a member of Congress, died on the lS’h instant. Petton Randolph Hampden, E?q., one of the most eminent lawyers iu Missouri, died recently at his residence in Boonville. We learn that the store of Moses Joiner in the lower part of this county, was burned on Saturday night the 14th inst. It was first broken in by a negro man, owned in Savannah, and afterwards set on fire. These facts were ascertained by bis own confession. The ware-house at 14th Station, wa3 broken in on the same night, and a small amount of money taken out, and some letters in the post office bro ken open. —Central Georgian. Let the People Organize the House. The proposition first made by Mr. Letcher, and since re newed by Mr. Faulkner, that the members of the 1 louse resign, and allow the people to send niembe rs in their places, who can and will organize j the Hoc.se, must commend itself to popular favor the mo re reflection is given to it. Indeed, the question is reduced to the alternative of insisting 1 upon this course, or of submitting to a continued j disorganization. It is now sufficiently demonstra ted tb at the present discordant materials cannot agree upon a mode of organization. Had the ; Democratic party obtained a majority, there would have ’oeen no difficulty and no delay. A Speaker would have been elected, and the House would, from the first day of the session, have proceeded smoothly on with the public business of the coun try. But the passage of the Nebraska-Kansas bill, | with which the Democratic party was identified, raised in the States North of Mason and Dixon’s line, a storm of free-soil excitement which succeed ed in gathering in its sweep all the elements of j faction, fanaticism and anti-slavery sectionalism, and iu calling to its aid all the narrow prejudices of Know Nothing bigotry and intolerance, which combined and drove from the National Councils nearly the entire body of National Democrats from ’ the North. Opposition to the Democratic party, of every shape and shade, combined at the South with the same narrow prejudices of Know Nothing bigotry , and intolerance, and succeeded iu displacing a large number of Democrats, thus reducing the Democratic party to a powerless minority. The result is an opposition to the Democratic party and the present Federal Administration, numbering one hundred and fifty-six members out of two hun dred and thirty-four. Os this latter number, there is a clear majority of Know Nothings. Now, as this Know Nothing party claimed fur itself princi ples deserving the approval of the American peo ple, and sought power on the ground that it was a j ;iarty better capable than the Democratic party, which it assailed of administrating the govern- ! iient, it follows that they, having the majority, are under pledge to their constituents, to unite togeth er on the principles common to their Order, and •leet a Speaker, hi the canvass, before the people, hey ignored other questions not involved in their reed, and made Know Nothingism the paramount (uestiou. What excuse have they now, consistently vith their past course, to allege as the reason that hey do not unite—that Know Nothingism is not he paramount question—that there are other ques ions existing on which they differ among them dves irreconcileably, and that, owing to them, hey will disregard the mystic tie of Know Noth ng fraternity, and refuse to form a Know Nothing rganization ? But this matter we leave to be explained hereaf ■r in Know Nothing lodges, and to Know Nothing onstituencies. The reasoa assigned to the public j ■*, that the Northern Know Nothings aud the ma ,rity of the Southern Know Nothings stand op- • osed to each other on the Nebraska-Kansas bill— ae former being unanimously opposed to, and the .tier in favor of the bill. This bill being then, the test, we find that the ivocates of the Nebraska Kansas bill, whether Democrats or Know Nothings, are still in the mi >rity. They could not organize the House even their votes were united upon a Nebraska-Kansas mdidate for Speaker. The Anti-Nebraskaites have a majority in the louse. Had they all united on a candidate, they ould, at the opening of the session, have elected a speaker. Mr. Banks has several times come vvitli .n three votes of being elected, and iu those very .allots more than that number of Anti-Xebraska tes who voted, refused to support him. Anti-Xe jraskaism had, too, its family quarrels and differ •nces. It, too, had within itself irreconcilable an agonisms. Therefore, the House could not be or ganized on an Anti-Nebraska basis. Opposition to the Administration holds a major ty in the House, yet that majority can not coalesce .n that ground. The Know Nothings hold a majority, yet they jail not coalesce on Know Nothingism. The Anti-Nebraskaites hold a majority, yet they •an not coalesce on Anti-Xebraskaism. i The Democratic party, supporting the Adminis ration. opposed to Know Nothingism, and advoca ing the Nebraska bill, did coalesce, and stand har noniouslv together, and voted steadfastly for an xpouent of their principles. But being in a hope ess minority, they could effect no organization. The minority being unable t» elect a Speaker, nd the majority, who stand in direct antagonism, ieiiig unwilling to organize, and pertinaciously re using to do so, the alternative is clear. Perma lent disorganization, or resignation, so as to allow he people to decide the question. On this subject, .vo adopt the language of the Washington Union: 1 “ When the proposition for a genera! resignation vas made at an early day of the session, it seemed o excite a feeling of merriment, but experience j i las shown the wise foresight of Mr. Letcher, who . isrt made that proposition, and, in the present tate of things, it becomes a question for sober jonsideratiou. If the friends of Mr. Banks have , t resolved irrevocably that no other member, even ’ if their own party, shall be Speaker, and these ’ mti-Xebraska members who have declined to vote , v for him are resolved never to aid in his election, ; t . we assume that an organization of the House is j impossible. It is, therefore, upon the assumption hut the fact is established, that an organization of die House is impracticable under existing circum- ’ stances, that we turn to the proposition for a gen- j ? ‘ral resignation as the only sure means of again putting the wheels of government in motion. If members have made up their minds to adhere un alterably to their present positions, they have vir- j (ually determined that no organization can take place. We do notsee, in such a dilemma, how any member who has come to this conclusion can ob ject to the proposition for resignation. The ma chinery of the government is stopped, and, after 1 seven weeks of persevering effort, the fact is de monstrated that the present representatives of the j people cannot put it in successful motion. The ; people, therefore, have made a mistake in the se -1 lection of their agents, and the people have a right to expect their agents to return to them and allow j them to correct tlieir mistake. “ After seven weeks of discussion, each member seems to be more than ever confirmed in the pro- I i prietv of liis own course, and in the conviction i that he is faithfully representing his constituents, j No progress has been made m the House, what ever may have been the result in the country, in ascertaining upon whom the responsibility r for the disorganization rosts. Each division j and section and member adheres doggedly j i to the position that somebody else is the responsi . ble party, and ail the discussion has only strength : eued this conviction. No one section of the House, therefore, can be expected to resign unless the j ; others, or portions of them, will do the same. The 1 i proposition, therefore, for a general resignation, is manifestly fair, and, as it seems at present to be i the only suggestion which promises success, we are sure that the people will soon begin to demand its I adoption.” c ! Mors Leap-Year Developments.—The Lowell >' • Xf:i says that the leap-year ball of the carpet factory girls came off, according to announcement j on Thursday evening, and was a very pleasant af | fair. The ladies, it says, to the number of about " j seventy-five, healthy, robust, cheery and lovely, 6 : took the carriages, called for their beaux, were j driven to the hall, jwhere ladies managed, selected . ! their own partners; ordered the supper, aud glori ■_ ously paid all the bills. The partners selected . I spoke well for the judgment of the girls. The Neict says -. “ We were amused, however, on observingbright .. | eyed lasses, with rougliish eyes, trip up to demure , young men and soltcit die honor of tlieir hand for the‘next cotilion.’ Who could refuse ? One eu j raptured soul engaged himself to eight different ladies for the ‘Monev Musk,’ and to six others for - ‘Hull’s Victory I Many a poor heart hid away un ci der a vest was irretrievably ruined. But it could not be helped. “The company broke up about two o’clock, when the ladies escorted their beaux home, and then went ; , off' to their own.” u , Firkin Madison — Thismorniug, nbout 1 o’cloak, ' a fire broke out on tbe freight tram at the Depot of - the Georgia Railroad, consuming two freight and t one box car loads of cotton destined for Augusta.

Mii.i.edgeville, Jan. 26th 1856. HOUSE. <‘ J appropriate ten thousand dollars to the Macon Botanieo Medical College, which was lost on yesterday, was this morning, on motion, re considered, with a view of inserting five in the ten thousand—ayes 72, nays 38. The bill providing for the sale of all free persons of color, who are found within the limits of the State, after a specified time, came up as the special order of the day. This bill gave rise to a consid erable discussion. Messrs. Crook, and Phillips took ground in fa vor of its passage. Messrs. Jones, of Muscogee, Dawson, Haynie, and Thornton, against it. A motion to postpone indefinitely was carried by a vote of lives 65, nays 54. A bill to appropriate ten thousand dollars to the Savannah and Atlanta Colleges, was lost by a vote of ayes 44, nays 00. The House then adjourned to 10 o clock, A. M., Monday. SENATE. The most of the forenoon was consumed, on mo tions for re-consideration. Mr, Fambro moved to reconsider the bill restricting the labors of Factory employees, under the age of sixteen, to ten looms a day. This bill was adopted in lieu of the one introduced bv Mr. Fambro, to repeal the old law, which makes it unlawful to work minors in Facto ries before sunrise, and after sunset. The motion to reconsider, was advocated by Messrs. Fambro, Murphey, Moore, of Lincoln” and Beaslcy, and opposed by Mr. Screven. Mr. Moore contended that it. was essential to the interest and prosperity’ of Factories, that all hands employed should work the same length of time, otherwise, their business would be greatly deranged, and ten hour, a day was too short a period for the long summer days. The bill was reconsidered. Mr. Camden moved a reconsideration of the bill, repealing the act, which prohibits the introduc tion of slaves into this State for sale. Mr. Buchanan led off in a lengthy argument in support of the motion. He thought it bad policy to repeal the existing law. As a question of econ omy, it was wrong. By introducing gangs of ne groes, you present temptations to the people which they could not withstand. They will borrow mo ev and buy negroes, even at, high prices, and when a reverse comes upon the country’, ruin and disas ter yvill follow close upon its heels. This" position was elaborated at some length, by reference to the past history of Georgia. He admitted that negroes are cheaper in some portions of this State, than they are in Virginia. The reason for this yvas to be found in the fact that the newly opened, large and fertile tract of country, embraced within the boundaries of Texas and Louisiana, has increased the demand for slave labor, and consequently en hanced the value of slaves in that section which supplies Southern markets. But the depression in Georgia might be temporary ; and many who are now soiling negroes at comparatively low prices, are probably forced to do so, on account of embar rassments. occasioned by paying high prices, while the law, which some were now seeking to repeal, was not in operation. Mr. McMillan followed in opposition, ne said there yvas no force iu the position assumed by some, that throwing open our doors to the intro duction of slaves for sale, would have the effect of draining Virginia and Maryland of their slave pop ulation, and making them ’free States. He appeal ed to the statistics of the country, and the history ; of slavery in those States—Virginia particularly, 1 in confirmation of what he said. The last men- I tinned State, although she had, for years and years, j supplied the Southern and Western markets", con ■ tained, at this time within her borders, not onlv ! a greater slave population thau she ever had be j fore, but more slaves than any other State in the : Union, Vct in the face of these facts, gentlemen, for want of a better r-ason, would still insist upon j the argument.. He also urged that it would be in j jurious to Southern interest, at this juncture, to ■ refuse to repeal the layv. Slavery yvas struggling for an existence in Kansas, and needed all the aid j she could get from every quarter, moral as well I as phy.-icial. Refuse to repeal this law, you give j an additional argument to the Abolitionists : against your brethren in Kansas. He yvas for free trade in negroes. They were recognized as pro- I perty ; and the same layvs which governed trade in ! other species of property, should be extended to j this. Mr. Peeples was the next speaker. He thought ; the gentleman last up very unfortunate in his re ference to the slavery statisticsjof the border slave States. If there yvas an increase in the slave pop i ulation at all, the increase was as nothing, in com ! parison with, the rapid increase of that class iu the more Southern States. In making this compari ! son, you tnus» take the old States, and leave out t Kentucky and Missouri, which were more recently settled, lie thought it was to the interest of the ! South to adopt that policy, which would prevent the border States from sending off'their negroes, i and thus lessen their interest in the institution of ! slavery. It yvas the prevailing opinion of manv, that slavery yvas destined to recede from its North ern limits, and travel southward. It yvas our duty j to check that tendency, instead of hastening its ! consummation. He argued further, that the poli ! ey of introducing more negroes would tend to im i poverish the State. It would be the means of more . rapidly exhausting our fertile lands, and involve i the people in debt. He urged also tlie past action 1 of the Legislature, as an argument against a re peal. The law bad been repealed tyvice, and re -1 enacted by each ensuing Legislature. Mr. Pope yvas also in favor of reconsideration, and against repeal. He considered the question in its moral and social aspect; and made a strong and feeling appeal, upon the ground that the traf fic in slaves is revolting to humanity, and at vari ance yvitb the spirit of Christianity. The Senate refused to reconsider by a vote of ayes 41, nays 51. And tbe old layv stands repeal ed, so far as the action of the Senate is concerned. What will be its fate in the House, I cannot say positively. I am, however, inclined to the opinion that it will pass that body also. BILLS ON THEIR PASSAGE. To organize a Court of Common I’loas iu Augus ta. Passed. To organize a Criminal Court in the city of Co lumbus. Passed. To authorize Justices of Inferior Courts to exer cise criminal jurisdiction in certain cases. Passed. To add the county of Worth to the Southern Ju dicial Circuit. Laid on the table for the present. A resolution introduced some days ago, declar ing that the Legislature would adjourn sine die on the 25th of February next, was called up, and gave rise to several short speeches. It yvas denominated by its opponents a Buncombe resolution ; and upon the ground that its adoption would not hasten le gislation, and that the body would not adjourn be fore it gets through yvith the business, a motion yvas made to postpone indefinitely. The motion yvas lost. Judge Cone then offered, as a substi tute, a resolution limiting speakers to ten minutes. Before a vote could be bad, either upon the substi tute or original, a motion to adjourn until ten o’clock Monday morning prevailed. N. < K )M M ERCIAL. Augusta Market, Jan. 27, 0 I’. M. COTTON.
