We are pleased to learn that efforts are making bv the Young Men’s Library Association, and with j probable hopes of success, to induce Mr. Thackeby, at the close of his course in Charleston, to deliver one or two Lectures in this city. 11 an arrange ment is made, the first Lecture will be delivered about Mondav or Tuesday evening next. Iron .Steamboat Company. At the election for Directors of the Iron Steam boat Company, the following gentlemen were cho sen : p, r Augntta —Wu. 11. Stahx, T. S. Mktcalf, Wx £. Jackson, J. Sibley, Alfbed Baker, Leo. W. Lewis, and P. A. Scranton. For Savannah —Eow. Padexforo, .C. 0 Dris coll, C. F. Mills, A. Law, and J. Washbuhn. At a meeting of the new Board, on Wednesday last, Wm. H. Stark, Esq., was unanimously elected President. Death of Professor Henry. Rev. Robert Henry, D. D., formerly Prof, s-un of Logic and Metaphysics, afterwards President, and for some years past, Professor of Greek in the .South Carolina College, died in Columbia, at two o’clock, P. if., on Wednesday last, sth inst. Prof. H. was connected with the College for about thir ty-eight years, and his death will excite a thrill of regret throughout the wide spread circle of the Alumni of that institution. Cold Weather. The inhabitants of the southern State, have complained considerably about the extreme cold weather the present season. Its duration and se verity mar be regarded as unprecedented. But, in the north, as well as the north-west, the rigors of the cold have been so great that vast numbers of domestic animals have died, commerce has been suspended,ships and steamboats have been destroy ed bv the drifting ice, and steam cars blocked up, on railroad lines, by the drifting sleet and snow. These impediments to business are not the inter ruptions of a day, but havo continued for nearly a month past. On Monday last ice was about eigh teen inches thick on the Ohio river, opposite Cin cinnati; and about the same time, near Buffalo, X. Y., the snow was lying in drifts about twenty feet high. The Vote for Clerk. We publish in another column, the vote in the House of Representatives in Congress, for Clerk. It is rather an important record, and will he inter esting and instructive to all who examine it. The Black Republicans and Northern Know Nothings, and a considerable portion of the Southern Know Nothings, united upon the election of the Hon. William Cullom, of Tennessee, for the office ol Clerk of the House. In the fusion, we notice the names of Messrs. Trippk and Foster. We desire that it should not be forgotten, that Mr. Cullom, the Clerk elect, was a member of the last Congress, from Tennessee, and an anti-Xebrun til man : anti was defeated in the 4th Congression al District of Tennessee, at the late election by Mi- Savage, on the ground of his opposition to the Kansas-Nebraska bill, and in a district which gave Gen. Scott nearly a thousand votes majority ovei Gen. Pierce, at the last Presidential election. Mr. Ct'LLOM is a Southern man, and that ought to satisfy the people of the South, and hence many Southern Know Nothings voted for him —and he is an anti-Nebraska man, and that satisfied the Black Republicans of the North, and they voted lor him —hence the fusion, and hence Cullom* election. Thus we go. yep” James Merritt was found dead and frozen, near Athens, on the 2d inst. Rum. SsfProt. Charles Sbott Venable, the recently elected Professor of Natural Philosophy, in tin State University, has arrived in Athens, and en tered upon the duties of his office. Thursday, the 14th inst., is St. Valentin V Day, and this being leap year, we presume ‘‘busi ness letters” will be numerous. Mr. John Macghath, for many year- a very eminent merchant of Charleston, died in that city on Wednesday morning last. TjgJ - There is a project on hand, to run a line, consisting of four steamboats between Columbia, S. C., and Charleston, in opposition to the Charles ton Railroad. A granite Capitol is in process of erection in Columbia, S. C. The last number of the American Illustra ted newspaper, contains a likeness of Senator Toombs, of Georgia. The tine residence of Mr. John A. M. Bat tle, in Mobile, Ala., was destroyed by fire on the 2nd inst. Nils On the Ist and 2nd inst. twenty-two thous and bales of Cotton were sold in Mobile. Appointment by the President- 5y and tn'C the ad vie: and content of the Senate. —George M. Dallas, of Pennsylvania, to be envoy extra ordinary and minister plenipotentiary of the Uni ted States to her Britannic Maiesty, in the place of James Buchanan, recalled at his own reu■■< st. At Kent, Connecticut, on the 4th a crot d of anti-liquor law men gathered, by appoint .-ent, at the Court House, where justice E. M. Eel log had lined a man #4O for selling liquor. As the jus tice was returning home in his sleigh, his horse was stopped on the high road, and he was dragged out of it by a mob of fifty or one hundred men, who then proceeded to tar and feather hint. He was then ridden on a rail. Senators Unseated.—The three Know Nothing members of the Louisiana Senate from New Or leans have been unseated, and their three Demo cratic competitors declared to be legally elected, notwithstanding the destruction of the ballot boxes on the night of the election. Paragraphs of intelligence from the Savan nah Sews, of yesterday: Steamer Charles Hartridce Bornt. —We learn from Messrs. Brigham, Kelly A Co., Agents for the boat, that the steamer Charles Ilartridge, Capt YV Taylor, was burnt on Monday last, at Nest Egg Bluff, seventeen miles above Hawkinsville. The Hartridge had on board five hundred and sixty bales of cotton, all of which, except one hundred bales in the uold, were consumed The steamer was owned by Messrs. Brigham, Kelly & Co., Capt. Taylor, and Messrs. Cowart, Brother A Co! The cotton was consigned toJ. Jones k Son, A. S. Hartridge, J. W. Lathrop A Co., and N. A. Har dee. We regret to learn that there was no insur ance on either the boat or cotton. At a meeting of the Directors of the Merchant-' and Planters’ Bank, held yesterday, Hiram Rob erts, Esq., was elected President, and Augustus Barrier, Esq.. Cashier. The Bank will transact bu siness for the present at the office of th- Sava:, nah Institute tor Savings, until the completion of their new Banking house. At a meeting of the Oglethorpe Mutual L >an As sociation held iast evening at the Exchange, #s,ouu were sold, viz: #I,OOO at 38 percent; #I,OOO at As 1 * ; and «i<y at 39}..;. ZuSU Ihe New York correspondent of the Charles ton Courier, says: “Robert J. Walker, whose opportunities of forming a correct opinion on the subject, are as good as those of any outsider, believes there will be a speedy peace in Europe. He thinks s > for three reasons. Marshal Paskiewith bequeathed his dying injunction to the Emperor to make peace, and no one in Russia, says Mr. Walker, ever gives advice that is not certain to be agreeable to the Emperor. Minister Seymour, at Vienna, is averv careful, cautious man, and would not give rise to hopes that there was any probability of disap pointing. And finally, which is the great argu ment induced by Mr. Walker, in confirmation of his opinion, the Russian Government wish to con clude the railroad already commenced from the Capital to the Crimea. Great railroad schemes, Mr. Walker thinks, exert an immense control in the action* of both nation* and man Corre»}K>ndence. of Ike Cunetitutionalist. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. Milledoevillb, Feb. 6, 1556. •SENATE. The Senate agreed to a resolution offered by Mr. Spaulding, of Mclntosh, that a committee of five be appointed to meet a similar committee from the House, and that the joint committee report upon a bill authorizing the construction of a main trunk railway, from some point on the Eastern bank of the Chattahoochee river. The committee appointed to examine the returns of his Excellency the Governor, from Banks of the Interior, Atlanta Bar k Ac., presented a report. On motion, the majority and minority reports were ordered to be printed. bills on their passage. A bill to protect and confer upon all societies, whether charitable, secret or literary, the same i privileges now enjoyed by religious societies, churches Ac. Passed. A bill to incorporate the Georgia Air line R. R. ! Company, The capital is #1,000,000. Passed. A bill to incorporate a Bank in the citv of At lanta, to be called the “Bank of Fulton/’ Capital j *300,000.. Passed. Some few amendments were adopted restricting j the power of the Bank, and requiring such con ditions, that there can be no little possibility of fraud and deception, and consequent injury to the j holders of the notes. A bill to compensate the Grand and Petty jurors of Taliaferro county. Passed. A bill to allow Wm. B. W r afford to build a mill-dam across the Conasauga river, iu Murray county. Passed. A bill to explain and amend an act to regulate the mode of sueiug the bonds of Executors, Ad ministrators, and Guardians, approved Jan 15th 1852. Passed. This bill is to give creditors, the same ample • remedy against Executors, Administrators and \ Guardians, as is given to Legatees, Distributees j and Wards. A bill to change the time of meeting of the Gen- , eral Assembly of Georgia from the first Monday to the first Wednesday in November. Passed. A bill to change the mode of Executors, Admin istrators, and Guardians, of making their returns ; to the Ordinary. This bill provides that the umn- , oer of bales of Cotton, the number of pounds, the ! amount received, when they were sold, to whom j sold, Ac., must be specified. Passed. A bill to instruct the Governor to employ the convicts in tlie Penitentiary in quarrying granite ! with which to rebuild the Capitol. Lost. A bill to authorize the Ordinary of Taylor coun- : :y to pay to Wm. A. Graham, and C. Rousseau, j certain monies. A bill to make the fees of the Ordinaries iu this I state, uniform. Referred. A bill to prohibit the retailing spirituous liquors , without license, and to prescribe the mode in which such license shall be given. A quart in the small- ; ■at quantity to be sold. The license are to be ob- ■ mined from the Inferior Court, except where the j power is vested iu the corporal authorities. The oill contains many specifications, regulating, re- j striding, conditioning and qualifying the sale to ; negroes and free persons of color, and providing | for remedying abuses in this traffic. It is a strin- ; gent bill and calculated to prevent a repetition of j ihe evils resulting from a free, indiscrimate, uure- ! strained sale of liquor to blacks and inulattoes, ! free and bondagea. Another important feature j in the bill is the requiring liquor shops to be closed ! on election days. Much desultory, rambling dis- , cussion took place on this section. One gentle- I man, Mr, Billups, objected to it, because it was squinting at the Maine Liquor Law, and he should \ ■verbe. opposed to that law. Ii would, also, in rease the use of intoxicating drinks, as tlie can didates would each have their barrel of liquor, ; named after them, on the field, and whoever was a j friend could imbibe freely from the barrel, and i consequently the best liquor would draw the “iloat- ! ing votes.” Another, Mr. Long, of Glynn, seemed to have an idea that it was calling in question the , intelligence and good sense of the people of Georgia, to pass this odious section. He was in favor of prohibiting wholly the traffic on .Sundays, but with regard to the sale on he other days, he was most irreconcilably ipposed to stopping it by legislating against it. It was not right to do this. There was only a few- Touting votes could be caught by this means; the sound, respectable, order-loving, patriotic citi zens, were entirely free from all such influence ; and this, if passed, would be a libel upon their in’ telligence. Mr. Calhoun, exemplifying thegopd results of such a measure, said that in bis county the liquor dealers had been politely requested to close up their shops, and having acquiesced, the consequence was that the election passed off quiet ly and friendly, undisturbed by lighting, or any sind of turbulence and disorder ; while at all the preceding elections, many disgraceful scenes had occurred. Judge Cone, drawing upon his long experience and observation, made some sensible and truthful remarks on this matter. At all elec tions there was a sufficient number of “floaters” :o create a great deal of disturbance, and give much trouble to the authorities in quelling the ebullitions of these disorderly spirits when excited and infuriated by liquor. All past experience most plainly manifested the evil consequences of allow ing such men access to whisky, and while it was no privation, and no insult to peaceable men to have these prohibitory enactments, it really did work to advantage in keeping the “stuff’” from those who would undoubtedly use it freely, if allowed to so. Mr. Landrum also spoke strongly iu favor of this section. Mr. Blood worth, of Carroll, offered an amendment that seemed to strike with peculiar force upon the Sen itor’s “perceptions of the ridiculous,” and pro- Juced considerable excitation of the risibles of the members. It provides that no liquor shall be sold m Milledgevillc during the session of this General Assembly. The bill and all the amendments were finally laid on the table for the balance of the ses sion. This is a noble measure, and fraught with Jeep interest to Georgia. The ends contemplated by the bill are certainly necessary, and of momen tous importance, and as meritorious as any that nave engrossed the attention of this body. In nothing is it more essential that there should be a refot .n, of some kind, than iu the retail traffic of liquor to negroes, and the suppression of every kind of distribution of liquor to white persons on election days. lam aware that the “Maine Liquor Law” is as delicately and gingerly touched in this State, as if it were flimsy gauze that would not bear rough handling; anil also that this measure “squints” at that law—but, nevertheless, in con sideration of the many evils it would remedy, and abuses it would do away with, and the great bene fits it would confer, I am disposed to think ii would be proper to have passed it. A bill to alter the oaths taken by witnesses lie fore t’nt Grand Jury. Lost- ayes Hi; nays 95. HOUSE. The House agreed to the Senate amendments to the General Appropriation bill. Aves 53 ; naysso. An amendment was added to the bill by the Sen ale, appropriating #lls to Mr. John \V. Duncan, of Baldwin county, as compensation for pamphlet copies of the acts of the last General Assembly, given to the Clerks of the Superior Courts by him. The bill next considered, authorized the con struction of a Railroad from some point in Union or Fannin county, through the valley of the Little Hightower, to connect with tlie Northeastern Rail road now contemplated. It is to be called the Hi wassee Railroad. The whole day, morning and afternoon, has been consumed in the discussion if this bill, and the matter is still pending. Messrs. Wood of Fannin, Smith of Union, and Crook of Chattooga, supported; and Messrs. Dawson of Greene, Pickett of Gilmer, and Philips of Haber sham, opposed the bill. The discussion was still pending, when the House adjourned. A. From the Wathinffton Union, sth unit. Congressional. Washington, Feb. 4.—Senate,—The entire day was devoted to business, with llie exception of a debate on the proceedings of the late naval board ; which commenced during the morning hour, and was resumed towards the close of the session. The special order, being the Central American question, on which Mr. Foote had the floor, was not reached until so late an hour that Mr. F. de clined speaking to-day, and the subject was post poned until-tomorrow. A very large number of bills were introduced, many of them having re ference to the continuation of works of internal improvement bereretofore commenced under the authority of the government. Mr. Adams intro duced a bill to amend the naturalization laws. After on executive session tlie Senate adjourned. House. The first business of the House was the administering of the oath to the members. It was apprehended by some that when the name of Mr. Whitfield was called, objection would be raised to his being sworn, and that the Kansas ex citement would begin. He was sworn, however, j without serious opposition. The usual message was sent to the Senate, announcing to that body the election of Mr. Banks as Speaker. A commit tee was appointed to wait on the President and in form him that the House is ready to receive anv communication he may desire to ‘make. A reso lution was introduced appointing Wm. Coilorn, Esq., Clerk of the House of Representatives. It was adopted—ayes 126, noes 99—tlie Republicans and Know Nothings generally voting for Mr. Col lom, and the Democrats against him. The mem bers then proceeded to the choice of seats; after which, a resolution was offered, declaring Mr. Giossbrenner the Sergeant-at-Arms, and pending its consideration, the House adjourned. After the adjournment it was announced that there would be an anti-administration caucus in the ball at 7 o’clock. House.— The Speaker administered the oath to support the Constitution of the United States to the members, the representatives of each State, and the delegates from the Territories, advancing ai their names were called out fur that purpose bv the Clerk " 1 When the name of John W. Whitfield, of Kan i sas. was called. Mr. Grow said he did not intend to interpose any objection to the oath beiug administered to this delegate. Out of deference to the wishes of • gentlemen with whom he acted, he would withhold i objection, though the circumstances surrounding the question were such as would warrant it. He hoped, however, to be heard on some future occa sion on this subject. Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, said that his constitu- j outs were in a deep state of excitement, owing to j the proceedings here during the last two months. They had held mass meetings, and sent him the resolutions which they had adopted. A constitu-j ent (if his, a Kentuckian by birth, had been dia- ! bolically murdered in a most cowardly manner, j i having been -hot in the back, as lie had been j credibly informed, by an officer in Kansas, now ; under the pay of the general government. They had been so much engaged in the organization of the House that an agitation of the question now ! would only be attended with confusion and embar- i rassment, and be wished this to go forth as the : reason why lie did not now object ‘olliu adminis- j j tration of tlie oath to Mr. Whitfield. The delegate was then sworn in. • On motion of Mr. Washburn, of Maine, it was re solved that a message be sent to the Senate inform ; ing them that a quorum cf the House had assem : bled, and elected as Speaker th • Hon. N. P. Banks, of Massachusetts, and that the House was now I ready to proceed to business, Oti motion of Mr. Pennington, it was resolved that a committee be appointed, in conjunction with J ; a similar one of the Senate, to wait on the Presi- j dent of the United States, and inform him that a t quorum of the two houses has assembled, and that j Congress is now ready to receive any communica tion which he may be pleased to make. Mr. Thurston submitted a resolution that the j : House will now proceed to the election of a Clerk aim voce. j The resolution was laid on the table- ayes 103, ■ j noes 85. Mr. Sage offered a resolution declaring the Hon. Will iam Cullom, of Tennessee, Clerk of the House of Representatives. Mr. Orr moved to lay the resolution on the tabic; j ■ which was disagreed (o—ayes 103, noes 113. j Under the operation of the previous question, | j the resolution was then adopted by the following j vote —yeas 126, nays 89: I Yut* Messrs.

Know Xothingism again Denationalized. ! : The zeal with which the South Americans in ('ongress have labored, during the last two months, : to elevate their little band of reformers to the dig ’ ! uity of a national party, has not escaped observa j tion. It seemed to be meir special object to contest 1 ! the palm of nationality with the Democratic party, j Amidst their solicitude ou this point they almost forgot that there was such an organization as the i republican party, and ignored any knowledge of | i the fact that most of tlie republicans were as good ; Americans ns themselves. The exclusiveness with i which some of the leaders directed their batteries against the Democrats, gave rise to frequent con ! i jectures as to the cause of their silence iu regard 1 : to republicanism. It will bo remembered that one ‘ of the shrewdest of their tacticians, Mr. Zollicoffer, • : fairly exhausted his resources in his efforts to ex -1 I cite suspicions as to tlie soundness of the antece -1 j dents of such champions of nationality as Kich • I ardson and Stephens. There was not only slirewd -1 l ness of generalship, but originality of wit, in the ! I spectacle exhibited when Mr. Zollicoffer, who 1 : stands on the celebrated twelfth plank, in which j the power of Congress to prohibit slavery in the j Territories is expressly preterm Hied, stood up with 1 : impressive gravity and catechised these gentlemen j as to their belief in the constitutionality of the 1 j Missouri compromise! ‘ : The plan seemed to be arranged that Know : Xothingisrn, as represented by its chosen standard ; bearer, Mr. Fuller, was more national than Demo cracy, as represented by the gallant Democratic i candidate, Air. Richardson. Mr. Fuller’s progress in nationalism -in - ■ the beginning of the session ■ had been so astonishingly rapid that some incred ulous people doubted whether his conversion was • I not rather too sudden to entitle him to head the ~ j column of nationalism. However, it answered ; tlie purpose, for the time being, of enabling tlie ‘ Southern brethren of the Order to point exultmgly • ! to the fact that their candidate for Speaker stood ou a platform more national, as they maintained, than that of 1 tie Democratic candidate. But. uufortu -1 nately, tlie labor of Mr. Zollicoffer lias all been lost, , and Know Nothingism lias been as completely cut | in twain by .Mason and Dixon’s line, anu donation i j alized, upon the election of Air. Banks as Speaker, | a- it was at Philadelphia upon the adoptiou of the ' , celebrated twelfth plank in their platform. The ' seven national (/) Know Nothings . Mr. Fuller liini .. self being one of them) who allowed Mr. Banks to 1 j be elected Speaker rather than unite with their j Southern brethren in securing the election of Air. Aiken, have utterly destroyed all the pretensions ‘of their organization to nationality. If it be said : that their votes were not cast for Mr. Bauks, it can : also be said that they were not cast for Mr. Aiken, when they knew that, if they voted for .Mr. Aiken, the election of Banks would be defeated, and if j they failed to vote for him, Banks would be Speak i er, They did not absolutely stone the Apostles, 1 I but they stood by and held the clothes of those i j who did !
