the afternoon was consumed in a rambling, inef
fectual, general discussion of this matter Nearly
, ul . ! and disregarding the will of the majority
ot the people of Georgia, expressed in the result
of the late gubernatorial election, to have the

matter, the House adjourned.
I t is to be hoped that the House will take no lias
itv inconsiderate action on this bill. Let it be re
membered that tbe people in their sovereign capa
city distinctly and unmistakably willed, by their
suffrages, that the Capitol should remain at Mil

Capitol to any other place will be directly contrary

in this State. * y
P- S. A very laughable occurrence took place
to-day in die Senate chamber. The gallery was
filled with pretty ladies, and several of the mem
bers, unable to resist the temptation, left the dull
arena of legislation, to go and breathe a lighter,
pleasanter atmosphere, and whisper soft-nothing
to the fair. A\ lute thus enjoying themselves, some
envying, less fortunate member, interrupted the
proceedings of the House, by moving to grant leave
of absence for the remainder of the day, 10 the
I members in the gallery, supposing they could not
sufficiently compose their minds to come down t<>
; dull business. Tbe permission was loudly and
unanimously granted, much to the discomfiture of
the “ladies’ men.”
;From the WustauyUm Union.'
A Proclamation.
/>// the President of the fnited States of America-.
Whereas, indications exist that public tranquili
ty and the supremacy of law in the Territory of
Kansas are endangered by the reprehensible "acts
or purposes of persons, both within and without
the same, who propose to direct and control its
political organization by force: It appearing that
combinations have been formed therein to resist the
execution of the territorial laws, and thus, in ef
fect, subvert by violence all present constitutional
and legal authority : It also appearing that per
sons residing without the Territory, but near its
borders, contemplate armed intervention in the af
fairs thereof: It also appearing that other persons,
inhabitants of remote States, are collecting money,
engaging men, and providing arms for the same
purpose : And it further appearing that combina
tion* within the Territory are endeavoring, by the
agency of emissaries and otherwise, to induce in
dividual States of the Union to intervene in the af
fairs thereof, in violation of the Constitution of the
United States.
And whereas, all such plans for the determination
of the future institutions of the Territory, if carried
into action from within the same, will constitute
the fact of insurrection, and, if from without, that
of invasive aggression, and will, in either case,
justify and require the forcible interposition of the
whole power of the general Government, as well to
maintain the laws of the Territory as those of the
Union.
Now, therefore, I, Franklin Pierce, President of
the United Slates, do issue this, tnv proclamation,
to command all persons engaged in unlawful com
binations against the constituted authority of the
Territory of Kansas, or of the United States, to dis
perse ami retire peaceably to their respective
abodes, and to warn all such pri sons that anv at
tempted insurrection in said Territory or aggres
sive intrusion into the same will be resisted, not
only by the employment of the local militia, but
also by that of any available forces of the United
Stetes; to the end *>f assuring immmunity from
violence and full protection to the persons, proper
ly, and civil rights of all peaceful and law-abiding
inhabitants of the Territory.
It, in any pare of the Union, the fury of faction
or fanaticism, inflamed into disregard of the prin
ciples of popular sovereignty which, under the
Constitution, are fundamental in the whole struc
ture of our institutions, is to bring on the country
tbe dire calamity of an arbitrament of arms in
that Territory, it shall be between lawless violence
on the one side, and conservative force on the
other, wielded by legal authority of the general
government.
I call on the citizens, both of adjoining and ol
distant States, to abstain from unauthorized inter
meddling in the local concerns of the Territory,
admonishing them that its organic law is to he
executed with impartial justice; that all individ
ual acts of illegal interference will incur con
dign punishment; and that any endeavor to inter
vene by organized force will be firmly withstood.
I invoke all good citizens to promote order hr
rendering obedience to the law ; to seek reinedV
for temporary evils by peaceful means; to discoun
tenance and repulse the counsels and the instiga
tions of agitators and of disorganizes; and to
testily their attachment to their country, their
pride in its greatness, their appreciation of the
blessings they enjoy, and their determination that
republican institutions shall not fail in their
hands, by co-operating to uphold the majesty of
the laws and to vindicate the sanctity of the Con
stitution.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my
hand, and caused the seal of the United States to 1
be affixed to these presents.
Done at the city of Washington, the eleventh day
of February, in the year of our Lord
suit.. one thousand eight hundred and fif

THE CRITERION;
A LITERARY AND CRITICAL WEEKLY JOURNAL,
pi Cage*, 4 to,
wir \s commenced on the third of November,
1-55, and has thus far received very gen
era! approbation. Anxious to extend its influence,
an i olace it upon a substantial basis of support,
th - Publisher de-ires most earnestly to direct the
attention t>! the thinking public of America to its
I claims upon their consideration.
The main feature ot the t ill i r. 17 1 ON is its A--
Smrx of < 'ur •> ;,t LlCrntnre. In this department
are <riven thorough and able criticisms of all the
most important books as they are issued, pointing
out rheir chief characteristics, and indicating their
moral tendencies, thus keeping its readers inform
ed of all new publications which deserve their at
tention.
tr VLSI) CONTAINS
Copious Intelligence of Affairs in the Literary
World; Gossip concerning Books and Writers;
Announcements of contemplated Publications; and
Lists of New Books issued in America and Europe.
The Grama, Music, Fine Arts and Science, also
receive attention, and several columns of carefully
selected and agreeable matter are given in each
! number. In addition to the above .there is a de
partment of Miscellanea for reading, of an enter
taining character, carefully selected from new books
and the ablest reviews, and a weekly collection of
Notes and Queries, which contains a great variety
of curious and valuable information.
It is confidently believed that a journal such as
the CRITERION, cannot fail to have a good effect
upon our national literature, and to some extent
upon our national character. It will be found es
peciallv valuable in directing the attention of youth
to works of real excellence, and encouraging an j
appreciation for valuable reading, which is being 1
rapidly destroyed In the circulation of superficial
and sophistical books. To the leading man the j
literary intelligence alone must render it very tie- j
sirable; and to all who wish to promote an im
provement in taste, the encouragement of merit, *
and an uncompromising condemnation of vicious j
si vie, mock sentiment, and evil principles, such an
enterprise cannot -at least, should not—be indif
ferent.
To members of Historical, Literary and Scien
tific Societies, Lyceums and Debating Clubs,
the subjects discussed in this paper will, sit all
times, prove of peculiar interest, and it is the de
sign of the editors to thoroughly canvass, from
time to time, those important philosophical ques
tions which agitate all inquiring minds, correcting
false theories, and encouraging profitable investi
gat ion.
The CRITERION is published at -S3 per annum, |
payable yearly, bait' yearly, or quarterly, in ad- i
vaiice. Specimen copies supplied, on application I
to tile Publisher. CHARLES R. RODE,
