To-night is positively ilie last performance at the Theatre of the dramatic corps which have, for the past lew weeks, afforded such excellent enter tainments to our citizens. Anniversary Celebration. Yesterday was one of the brightest, sunniest, loveliest days our city has been favored with for many days. The air was balmy and spring-like, and Augusta’s pent up beauties were out in all their radiance to enjoy the day and honor the occa sion. The celebration of Washington’s Birth day took place according to programme, by the civil and military. Our volunteer corps were out in strong force, and their gay uniforms, the music of their bands and the streaming of banners, over their heads and from our leading hotels, enlivened our streets, and drew out a large concourse of well dressed people—grown people and children. The celebration at the Masonic Hal! attracted a large assemblage of the civil and military, and of the beauty and fashion of the city. After a beau tiful prayer by the Rev. Mr. Rtebso.v, \\ asking ton ’s Farewell was handsomely read by Mr. J. Bartow Food, and an appropriate and tasteful eu logy was delivered, in a graceful aud effective manner, by Claiborne Snead, Esq. At the close of h;s address, the orator paid a feeling, eloquent and well-deserved tribute to the memory of Andrew J. Miller, whose recent death has been so deeply de plored bv our city and State. Miller County. We are gratified to see that the House bill, form ing a new county out of Baker and Early, to be called -‘Miller,” in honor of our late distinguished fellow townsman, has passed the .senate and is now a law. This is an enduring compliment, alike honorable to the dead and the living. It is creditable to the Democratic party, so large ly in the ascendancy in both branches of the Gen eral Assembly, that this Legislature has named two new counties, “Miller” and “Berrien,” in honor of two of its most indefatigable and able opponents. Jsf“ We notice that Mr. Jamer B. Mkll, of Rice boro,’ Ga., has recently patented an improvement in plows. I-'S' - ' Mr. Z. L!. Hargrove, of Rome, Ga., has been appointed runic Agent on the Western and At lantic rail read. rST* The lirst engine manufactured at the Ma chine Works in Route, Ga., has been put in opera, tion at the extensive Homewood Steam Mills, near that city. Good Telegraphing.— The European news by the steamer Canada, was dispatched from New ) ork bv the New York and New Orleans Telegraph via Washington, between seven and eight o’clock on Sunday evening, and went promptly through to the agent of the Associated Press in New Orleans, whose acknowledgment of it was received at 11 o’clock P. M. American Enterprise in Mexico. —The Cleve land i Ohio i Herald, of the 13th instant, states that a party comprising several persons of that city 1 and others, are about to leave for Vera Cruz, whence they wil 1 depart for Tehuantepec route, so called, and adds : A wealthy company of Ameri cans. among whom is Wm. Cost Johnson’, <if Mary land, have made provision to open a stage road over the Isthmus, two hundred and sixty-six miles. The route to California by this will be some one j thousand eight hundred miles shorter than either of the lower ones. The grant under which the com pany operate is known as the Garay Grant. A bill has been introduced into the New \ ork Legislature which abolishes days of grace, and renders all negotiable instruments payable on the last day named, or if such day boa bolyday, on i the day preceding. Notice of protest to be given as now, or by depositing the notice in the Post Office of the place of business of the person sought to be charged. Mr. Collins gave notice that the steamers of his line, to avoid any danger from the ice, will not cross the Banks of Newfoundland, North of forty three degrees until after the Ist of August next. Oregon —Mr. Lake, the delegate from Oregon, has introduced a bill in the House to enable that Territory to form a State government, preliminary to admission into the Union. Bridgwo the Mississippi. The Davenport \ . Iowa) Gatet'e of January 24th, refers to the rapid progress of the railroad bridge across the Missis sippi between that city and Bock Island. It says : “ Daily we observe progress in the woodwork of the immense superstructure which is soon to span < the old Father of Waters. Yesterday we observed ’ that the second span was completed.’and now, we presume, the workmen will commence operations upon the great turn-table or draw. That finished, , the bridge will soon be in readiness for the loco motive. Tracking a Murderer. We learn, verballv, that a man named William Burge, a deserter from the United States armv, who formerly lived in this citv, was arrested on Tuesday last, in Troup countv. bv a Missouri sher lff. who followed him from that "State. Burge is charged vwtu having, with the aid of another man, stiH at large, committed a murder a short time sineein Missouri It is said that tliev waylaid and killed a mar. tor his money, and buried h'i-n in the snow; but the body being found, and suspicion at taching to these two men. the sheriff followed Burge from Missouri to this State. His p , lrsn j t and capture of the prisoner shows much shrewd ness and perseverance. Burge travelled bv land, sometimes by railroad, sometimes by stage and other vehicles, and sometimes on foot —registering a diffueat name at most of the hotels where he •topped. He carried about his person a small box, and wore a cap taken from the murdered man ; aud bv these chiefly the sheriff was enabled to identify him and keep his track. Cutting Burge’s varied registered names from the books, he was enabled to compare the handwriting at places along his route, and thus to assure himself that he was on the right track. Following up the fugitive in this manner, he reached LaGrange only one dar behind him, arrested him, as above stated, near that place, and immediately started back for Mis souri with hit prisoner in charge. Columbus Fib 31. The Philadelphia Convention. In the telegraph dispatch published yesterday morning, it was stated that the American or Know N.(thing Convention in Philadelphia had passed the platform of principles published in the Wash ington Organ , of the 15th inst., by a vote of lqs to 77, as suggestive of the platform to be constructed j by the National Convention to meet in June next. We annex the platform referred to. From the American Organ, Feh. 15. At a meeting of the Chief Council of the Amer- j icati party for the District of Columbia, composed I of delegates from the subordinate councils of said District, tbe following platform of principles and , opinions, was recommended to the National and j State Councils of the American party for adop- ' tion: Ist. An humble acknowledgment to the Supreme i Being who rules the universe, for his protecting ! care vouchsafed to our fathers in their successful I Revolutionary struggle, and hitherto manifested i to us, their descendants, in the preservation of the j liberties, the independence, and the union of these j States. 2d. The perpetuation of the Federal Union, as [ the palladium of our civil and religious liberties. : and the only sure bulwark of American Indepen- i donee. 3d. Americans must rule America, and to this end, native-born citizens should be selected for all State, Federal, and municipal offices or government employment, in preference to naturalized citizens, nevertheless — 4th. Persons born of American parents residing temporarily abroad, should be entitled to all the rights of nativeborn citizens ; but ssh. No person should be selected for political station, (whether of native or foreign birth,) who recognises any allegiance or obligation of any de- ! scription to any foreign prince, potentate or power, ! or who refuses to recognise the Federal and State ; Constitutions(eachpvithin its sphere) as paramount to all other laws, as rules of political action. 6th. The unqualified recognition and mainte i nance of the reserved rights of the several States, 1 and the cultivation of harmony and fraternal good ! will, between the citizens of the several States, and to this end, non-interference by Congress, with ! ijuestions appertaining solely to the individual States, and non-intervention bv each State with i the afiairs of any other State. 7th. The recognition of the right of the native born and naturalized citizens of the United States, permanently residing in any Territory thereof, to frame their Constitution and laws, and to regulate their domestic and social affairs in their own mode, subject only to tbe provisions of the Federal Con stitution, with the right of admission into the 1 Union whenever they have the requisite population for one Representative in Congress. Provided al ways, that none but those who are citizens of the United States, under the Constitution and laws thereof, and who have a fixed residence in any such Territory, ought to participate in the forma tion of the Constitution, or in the enactment of laws for said Territory or State. Bth. An enforcement of the principle that no I State or Territory can admit others than native i born citizens to the right of suffrage, or of holding ; political office, unless such persons shall have been naturalized according to the laws of the United ! States. 9th. A change in the laws of naturalization, ! making a continued residence of twenty-one years, if all not heretofore provided for, an indispensa j ble requisite for citizenship hereafter, aud exclud ing all paupers, and persons convicted of crime from landing upon our shores ; but'm ({interference | with the vested rights of foreigners. 10th. Opposition to any Union between Church ; and State ; no interference with religious faith, or ' worship, and no test oaths for office, except those ( indicated in the sth section of this platform. 11th. Free nnd thorough investigation into anv and all alleged abuses of public functionaries, and a strict economy in public expenditures. 12th. The maintenance and enforcement of all laws until said laws shall be repealed, or shall be declared null and void by competent judicial au thority. 13th. Opposition to the reckless and unwise policy of tlie present administration in the general management of our national affairs, and more es pecially as shown in removing “Americans” (by designation) and conservatives in principle, froth i iffit-e, and placing foreigners and ultraists in their places; as shown in a truckling subserviency to j the stronger, and an insolent and cowardly brava do towards the weaker powers; as shown in rc ' opening sectional agitation, by the repeal of the Missouri Compromise; as shown in granting to • unnaturalized foreigners the right to suffrage in I Kansas and Nebraska; as shown in its vacillating i course on the Kansas and Nebraska question ; as shown in the removal of Judge Bronson from the i Uolleetorship of New Y ork upon false and untena ble grounds ; as shown in the corruptions which pervade some of the departments of the govern j raent; as shown in disgracing meritorious naval officers through prejudice or caprice; and as shown in the blundering mismanagement of out- foreign j relations. 11th. Therefore, to remedy existing evils, and prevent the disastrous consequences otherwise re sulting therefrom, we would build up the “Ameri can party” upon the principles hereinbefore stated, eschewing all sectional questions, and uniting up on those purely national, and admitting into said party all American citizens, (referred to in the 3d, 4th, and sth sections), who openly avow the prin ciples and opinions heretofore expressed, and who will subscribe their names to this platform. Pro vided, nevertheless, that a majority of those mem bers present at any meeting of a local Council, where an applicant applies for membership in the American party may, for any reason by them deem ed sufficient, deny admission to such "applicant. 15th. \ free and open discussion of all political principles embraced in our platform. Respectfully submitted, Joseph 11. Bradley, President. John L. Smith, Secretary. Another Delightful Fruit of Know JVothingism. The Knoiv Nothing Washington correspondent of the Richmond I( n'uj, denounces the action of i Mr. Cullom, the Clerk of the House of Representa ; lives, a model Know Nothing from Tennessee. • How will Southern men relish the beautiful work ings of Know Nothingism, as practised by South ern men of their party, and as thus pictured by one of the Southern “ National Americans?” The appointments made by Mr. Cullom to fill the offices under his control, have very justly caused great dissatisfaction. It is currently re ported that he has conferred many of them upon ignorant, incompetent men. ami what in far worse, upon wool-dyed, thorough-bred Abolitionists. Pro fessing, as lie has always done, to he a National Ymericau in politics, such conduct is altogether unpardonable, and will doubtldss subjeet him to deserved reprobation throughout the entire South. There was no apparent obligation resting on him to make such appointments, for the almost unani tnous support which he received from the Black Republicans was avowedly given because of the position lie assumed in the last Congress on the Kansas-Nebraskab.ill. The inference then seems plain, either that his sympathies are with that pea tiferious band of fanatics, or that some agreement was' entered into before tiie election, by which they were to receive a proportionate share of the spoil. Due thing is certain, that he was looked upon with suspicion by many of the Southern Americans, the Kentucky delegation, with a single exception, voted against him, and it is highly pro bable that his recent course lias not caused’them to regret their action on that occasion. * i Another solution of Mr. Cullom’s late condue has been suggested in various quarters, which pos sibly is not altogether without foundation. It is believed that he is strenuously working to procure the nomination of Senator Bell for the Presiden cy, and in that event, to secure his election, it be comes highly important to conciliate the Republi can vote of the North. What more likely to win over the followers of Greeley and Banks than a pleniful distribution of the ’spoils •In winn ing this rumor, I may possibly be doing •> in justice both to Mr. Cullom and Mr. Roll an >, 1 will gladly make reparation—but trie ments of the former were so unexpected and were so different from what the National American par ty had a right to expect, that very naturally they have given rise to a great variety of speculation’s and conjectures. Cohgressional. Washington, Feb. 20.—Senate—Mr. Douglas, at his own request, was excused from serving on the Committee on Foreign Relations. House. —Mr. Mills*u introduced a bill to repeal ihe act to provide for the efficiency of the Navy. Mr. Cobb, of Alabama, introduced a bill to' ex tend the time for the payment of the duty on rail road iron. Mr. Mace introduced a bill to prevent the exten sion of slavery in the territories of the United States north of StP 30‘. (Sensation) He moved to refer it to the Committee on Territories. Mr. McMullen—Has the gentlemen given previ ous notice of the introduction of this bill ? * Mr. Mace—ls you examine the journal you’ll find it out. Mr. McMullen—l propounded a respectful ques tion, which is entitled to a respectful answer. The Speaker—The gentleman from Indiana has given notice. His motion is in order. Mr. Smith, of Virginia, appealed from the deci ston of the Chair, and was supported in doing so v - lr. Houston, Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, and Mr. ! Craige, pending which the House resumed the consideratuin of the resolution of the Committee ! on Flections, asking power to send for persons and papers m the Kansas contested election case. The House refused, by three majority, to table it !

Coroner’s Inquests.— Coroner Huiet has held ! two inquests in this village within the last week; \ one upon the body of John Seigler, who was ! thrown from his buggy and instantly killed, some : half mile out of town, on Wednesday last; the : other upon that of Wm. D. Thurmond," who died j Thursday the 14th inst., from a wound received in an affray which occurred at this place on the sale day for this month, between himself and Wm. P. Jones. Both these unfortunate individuals were young men of familv and of good standiug in their re spective neighborhoods. Their sad fate is truly to j be deplored Edgefield Advertiser, 20 th inst. - ——— ♦ Covered up in a Well.— Day- before yesterday, late in the afternoon, Wm. Hailing v«as covered lip by the caving in of a well he was digging at Mr. James Swearingen’s, some eight miles below this place on the Aiken road. The body of Mr. 11. has been taken out of the well. It is supposed that he i was killed immediately.— Edgefield Adr., 20 th inst. i A countryman in Pittsburg, the other day re- j ceived a lot of greasy bills in payment for his pro- > duce. He attempted to clean them by using a so lution of potash, which extracted the signitures. To make them as good as new he re-wrote the names, and in an attempt to pass them, was arrest ed for counterfeiting. After considerable of a fright aud an explanation of the circumstance, to his great relief he was set at liberty. The following question is being considered in an out-west debating society: “ Which has ruined most mefi—giving credit or getting trusted ?” At the last accounts the disputants were about “nip and tuck.” The substance of a verdict of a recent coroner’s jury on a man who died in a state of inebriation, was, “death by hanging—round a rum shop.” Washington, Feb. 20. —Messrs. Chubb Brothers, in their Circulars of to-dav, state that the Texas bill contains a proviso, which will not, probably-, [(revent the distribution of the seven millions s'e veu hundred and fifty thousand dollars appropri ated by Congress. Tlie acceptance by Texas is as follows: The State of Texas hereby- withdraws and abandons all claims and demands against the United States, growing out of Indian depredations or otherwise, w hich originated on or before the 2Sth of February, 1855, provided that this aban ment shall not apply to claims of individuals for j losses of property by the enemy. They quote warrants as follows : One hundred sixties, one dollar six cents; eighties one dollar seven, one hundred twenties, one dollar per acre. Norfolk, Feb. 19.—The Corn market here is very dull. There were 38,000 bushels received yester day, and about 50,000 bushels on the market un sold. Sales of white and mixed at 67 a6B cents. Cotton is selling at 9>.j' cents. Receipts mod erate. j Washington, Feb. 19.- The State Department j has sent into the Senate a mass of documents i bearing on the Central American question, as far back as 185'); among them *a plan proposed by | General Marcoieta to Lord Clarendon two rears j ago, that Nicaragua and Great Britain and the United States unite in a treaty settlement of the • Mosquito Indian question. Mr. Marey, in a letter i to Marcoieta, denies that Great Britain had anv sovereign right over any part of Ceetral America, and that to unite tvith her in a treaty as proposed, would be a distinct acknowledgment that she has, and such an arrangement would interfere with ! the claims set up by Costa Rica.
