City Hotei.
i lii ; establishment was opened last evening, by
Mr. and Mrs. Starr, of the Augusta Hotel. They
mteDd to keep both houses “in the full tide of
successful” management.
The long supper table was very tastefully ar
ranged and bountifully supplied with those very
acceptable commodities, the transfer of which no
person desires to have attended to by an agent or
proxy. Those who engaged in the demolition of
the first supper, under the new regime at the City
Hotel last evening, will find others of the same
sort at the same place, and about the same hour,
from this time forward.
The City Hotel is now in flue order for the ac
commodation of visitors or transient custom, ami
under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Starr, we
trust it will have a long and prosperous career.
Connected with the building is the finest saloon
tn the South, where Loxgworth’s sparkling cham
pagne and the productions from the fine vintages
of France and Germany, as well as from Bourbon
countv, Kentucky, are always to be obtained.
The Post Office.
There are mans' persons who imagine, or show
it by their actions, that there is but little business
to do in the post office in Augusta. We were in
duced a few days since to make the enquiry, as to
the number of letters received in tiie post office
for distribution and delivery, and wo were sur
prised to learn that the number somewhat exceed
ed six thousand. About eleven hundred were for
delivery to oar citizens.
The delivery and forwarding of this number of
letters consumes time, and requires attention, and
if the post office is not open when the clock strikes,
and all the letters delivered when called for, we
are apt to condemn the inefficiency of ail employed
about the concern. But the letter department of the
post office is only a portion of the business. The
newspaper distribution and delivery of about fif
teen malls per day, are very important matters.
The mail department of the Government is very
systematically arranged, and all the local offices
tor delivery and distribution of papers and letters,
are expected to conform to the principles of ar
rangement. It is not the province of local post
masters to determine when mails shall be opened,
or closed, or forwarded. That supervising control
is in the head of the department. And yet we
hear complaints from persons who know nothing
about the ends to be effected. What may be an
erilltere, may be rendered a much greater griev
ance elsewhere, if any alteration is made.
It is a great mistake to suppose that postmaster;
are not disposed to be accommodating, but like
the rest of the human family, their patience can he
exhausted -not by one call, or two, or three, or a
dozen, but by being constantly taxed, at irregular
bout s for business, when important forwarding or
other duties engage their time.
In all post offices there is more or less inatten
tion to business, and as long us human beings man
age things about them, this condition will exist.
However, our intention was merely to state the
number of letters received here, and not to extend
remarks about post office affairs.
The Legislature of Tennessee have passed
a law, surrendering a portion of Shelbv county, (in
which the city of Memphis is situated), to Tipton
county. The act has caused considerable excite
ment, and the disposition to never surrender one
inch of Shelbv countv, is predominant in Mem
phis. J

The chaplain of the House of Representa
tives in Congress, is Daniel Waldo, a revolution
ary soldier, and about ninety-four years old. He
was elected on the last ballot by a dozen majority,
over a dozen other candidates.
Match between ax English Mare and an Ara
bian Horse.— An interesting race was run recently
at Cairo, between an English mare and an Arab
hor*e belonging to Hai ken Pacha, when the for
mer beat the latter. The length of the race was
eight miles, the time occupied b_v the mare eighteen
and a-half minutes, over a rough, gravelly, and
sandy road. The same race hvs been offered for
the last two years against all England, for 10,000
sovereigns, with the same horse, and not
accepted. The Egyptian princes are now con
vinced that their Arabs cm be beaten by English
horses. The late Viceroy Abbas Pacha had offered
to stake any amount up to 150,fio0f. on his own
horses, against any others that might be brought
to run.
Locked Up in Chancery.— Rumors having long
prevailed as to the amounts of the fund* locked
up in Chancery in New Fork State, a committee
was appointed at the last session of the Legisla
ture to investigate the subject. At the present
session the report has been made. It appears that
the total amount invested in bonds and mortgages
is $1,5. g.wb.v.t; in stock, besides cash in
the hands of County Treasurers.
The Boston Traveller mentions another reason
for discrediting the report that the Cullius' steam
er Pacific put into the river Shannon. Dire indeed
must have been the stress of weather that would
induce any captain to approach in search of shel
ter the rocky at.d dangerous coast on the south
west of Ireland. If the Pacific were damaged,
there is no accessible place up the Shannon where
she could effect repairs, I; could not be done at
Kiimsh, and the river to Limerick is navigable
only fi r vessels of four hundred tons burthen.
A Singular Exportation. A vessel lately left
San Francisco for China, huviu s as a part of her
cargo one bundled and seven coffins containing
the bodies of dead Chinese. This is explained in
this way ; Chinese speculators hire large bodies of
men tn China to work in the mines of California
The bodies of those who die there are taken back
to prove to those from whom they were hired that
their services were at an end.
The Know Nothings of the Kentucky Senate
refuse to resolve that the Missouri Compromise was

Philadelphia Convention.
The northern papers come to us heavily freight- |
| ed with the proceedings of this “most potent,
grave and reverend” Convention of Know Noth- j
■ ings, which met in Philadelphia last week. The |
j < 'atholic delegates from Louisiana, repudiated last
June, were admitted to seats; and subsequently a
Protestant delegate appeared, and after an effort
J to exclude him, he was graciously permitted to fill
a vacancy in the delegation.
We make up the following condensed report
j from the long columns of proceedings before us:
On Wednesday morning, Mr. Brewster, of Mas
; sachusetts, submitted the following as a substitute !
j proposition:
Whereas, The Twelfth .Section of the platform 1
adopted by our National Convention, in June
1855, was neither proposed bv the South nor sanc
tioned by the North, therefore stud section is here- i
by stricken out.
Mr. Ely, ot Massachusetts, proposed to add, and ;
Mr. Brewster accepted, the words :
"That as regards the support of slavery, we
abide by the principles and provisions of the Con
stitution of the United States, yielding no more,
and claiming no less.”
Ihe correspondent of the New York Tribune, I
says:
“ That in the afternoon session, the debate was
opened upon the Ely and Brewster proposition.
Mr. Ford, of Ohio, made a stirring northern
speech. The New York members quarreled as to
whether their constituents repudiated or embraced
the Twelfth Section. Mr. Barker stood up for the
Twelfth. C. C. Burr made a negro-phobia speech.
1 Others declared that two-thirds of the New York
| Americans repudiated the Twelfth Section, und
that, the party could not have stood up vvit lv that
: on tlieir backs. Mr. Ely, of Massachusetts, ex
i pounded his propositions as ‘Americanism’ when
we came together, but for slavery at the South and
1 anti-slavery at the North. Thus* he said, we have
I a two-legged platform in Massachusetts—Ameri
canism and anti-slavery; and you in the South
have also a two-legged platform—Americanism
and slavery. He defended this arrangement as
just aud proper, and as what his and the Brewster j
proposition intended to secure.”
The Brewster and Ely proposition was to be a j
substitute for a motion to appoint a committee to j
report business. It was adopted by ayes 104, to j
nay 65—a1l the free states voting yea and (the slave
States nay.
“On the announcement of the result, Mr. Bote-'
Her, of Virginia, made a vigorous speech. He
was constrained to believe that Americanism is be- i
ing fast merged into Abolitionism. Practically the i
Americanism of the North is Abolition. 1 say of j
the American party, I watched by its cradle; L ■
now stand by its grave. It no longer exists in the 1
land. The elements of which it was composed are
dissolved. \Ve will go home and take our princi
ples and make them the basis of the union of the
whole South. She will present an unbroken front
in defence of her rights.
This speech was received with great applause bv
the South, and created intense feeling throughout
the Council. The greatest confusion ensued, but
finally Gov. Call, of Florida was given the floor bv
common consent. He spoke in a similar though mil-
I der strain than Mr. Botelier. He said if the Twelfth
i Section was striken out, he should consider the
American party dead and dissolved, and should go
home. The Southern men all around cheered !
him and said, “Yes, yes.” He closed, however, iu- !
yoking peace, and moving an adjournment till to- !
morrow, which w as carried at tiUi p. m.
On Thursday morning conciliation aud harmony i
were marked characteristics of the Convention
they w r ere determined to save the country, that is,
theparty, and the resolutions agreed toby the Coun
cils in the District of Columbia from the pen of
Vespasian Ellis, editor of the Organ, and which
we published Saturday morning, w ere presented.
A motion was then made to abrogate the platform
•if June, 1855, which was carried—ayes 138, navs
1. During the voting on this question, several
gentlemen made remarks.
"Mr. Barker, alone of the New York delegation
voted No, making a speech doubted the good faith
>f the Northern Americans. Other Central ami
Southern Americans voted Yes, trusting to the
honor and good faith of the gentlemen to vote for
the substitute. Col. Bolling, of Va., said his bible
taught love to man and faith to God, and he voted
No. Mr. Botilier, of Ya., feared the Greeks bear
ing alms, and voted No. Gov. Call, of Fla, voted
Yes, in order to save the Union and the party, and
-aid “ \V v must stay here tiil wo can agree upon a
Platform.” Gov. Johnston, of Pa., did not want
‘ to ho charged with bad faith hereafter, and in giv
; ing his vote in favor of the striking out, said he
would vote No on the substitute of the Illinois gen
tleman unless it was amended to suit hint. The
' Itlegitle from Henry M. Fuller's district in Penn
sylvania, said, in giving his vote, that th, district
could not elect another member of Congress unless the
party went in favor of the restoration of the Mis
souri Compromise. Many Northern members gave
notice that they should vote against the substitute,
and denied that there was any bad faith iu doing
i so. Mr. Eustis, of La., (Catholic) refused to vote,
and the representative of the rival Council voted
No. President Bartlett voted No.
ti.„ .i .... ..I .... .
The question was then on the substitute of the
Vespasian Ellis or District of Columbia platform.
Considerable debate followed. Mr. Perkins, of
Connecticut, objected to it for three reasons :
“First, because the new platform embraced the
doctrine of Squatter Sovereignty as to the Territo
ries; second, because, while the twelfth section
meant something—this means nothing; third, be
cause tiiis Council has no right to make a platform
for the nominating Convention of to-morrow.
“Mr. Sheets, of Ind., proceeded to denounce the
repeal of the Missouri Compromise, but disavowed
extreme freesoil sentiments. He appealed to the
South to act with magnanimity, and not attempt
to justify a repeal of a solemn compromise, ami
then say we desire no further agitation of the mat
ter. It was like a man who should strike you a
blow and then retiring, say—‘l desire no further
agitation of this matter.’ ; Applause.!
“He -would assure the South that the twelfth
section must be got rid of. He was willing to ac
cept a compromise, hut the section must be got rid
of; he was willing to accept the Washington piat
form, for if there was anything in it, it was so cov
ered up with verbiage that a President would be
elected before the people would find out what it
was all about. [Tumultuous laughter.]
“ Three southern States had been carried on the
twelfth section; repeal it, and we will give you the
entire North. [Applause. | lie appealed‘to the
Council to take off this trammel that the great
North and Northwest may march to triumph. Do
this, and place on the ticket a good southern man,
and most of the southern States will be carried
with or without the twelfth section.
Gen. Zollicoffer thought there was 100 much
verbiage in the District of Columbia platform.
"There was a long and trying struggle and great
disorder before the voting on the substitute was
finished. It was declared at a o’clock—Yeas, luS;
Nays 77, and so carried.
"Great rejoicings followed from the Nationals ;
and the New Yorkers, to whom the result is main
ly due, were essentially jubilant. Scenes of terri
ble confusion followed. Criminations and re-crim
inations were rife, and it seemed several times as
if the assemblage would break up in a row. But
it survived it all, a great deal better than the party
will the new platform. Several western members
pronounced the party dissolved and dead, and said
they could not carry their people on such h plat
form .
" The President then put the motion to adjourn
until the regular meeting in June, which was car
ried unanimously.
From the lights before us, we have given the
main points of public interest connected with this
most unharinoniusasembiage. The platform adopt
ed is sui gen.uic.

Southern Black Republicans.
YVe see it stated in a telegraph dispatch to the
| New York Tribune, that there are delegates to the
j Republican Convention, in session at Pittsburg,
from the slave States of Maryland, Kentucky, and
one delegate from Missouri. The telegraph is sent
by Horace Grf.elet himself. How is this?
Colored Military Company. —Robert Morris,
J. YV. Clark, and other colored citizens of Boston,
have petitioned the Legislature of Massachusetts
for a special enactment authorizing them to organ
ize as an independent military company, on the
model ot the volunteer companies of the common
wealth. file petitioners are already organized as
a private military association, and are the proprie
tors of a handsome stand of arms.
Buffalo Repress
In Massachusetts, foreigners were not considered
worthy of being trusted with tire arms, when or
| gauized into military companies—but free negroes
were. This is Americanism in Massachusetts.
The inference follows, that free negroes will favor
the designs of the Abolitionists aud foreigners
' will not. “Acts speak stronger than words.” i
The railroad depot at Anderson was enured one
night last week and robbed of about six hundred j
dollars. It appears that the thief entered the sleep
ing apartments of the agent, after he had retired
for the night and took the keys from his pocket. i

In reply to the statement of the Washington cor- j
respondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer, that the \
President's health was so shattered and his looks
so ghastly and corpse-like, the Vicksburg Sentinel
says : “ From the stir his late message has made
among some of the dry bones of fanaticism in the
North, it would seem that President Pierce is
about the Uvett corpse that has startled abolitionism
for a long lime. It would not require many such
‘corpses’ to put to flight a whole army of traitors
anywhere.”
The cost of the smallest locomotive in use, is j
from six to eight thousand dollars. The largest, ,
which can draw a train of sixteen cars, holding i
eleven hundred persons, is worth twelve thousand
dollars. A first-class passenger ear costs three
thousand dollars; second, eighteen hundred;
freight car, six hundred.
The Dublin Mercantile Advertiser states that let
ters had been received from Glasgow announcing
the suspension of no less than four firms in the
corn trade, with very heavy engagements. The
same journal has commercial letters from St. Pe
tersburg, which state that owing to the sanguine
opinion generally prevailing amongst all classes of
a speedy peace, prices of wheat, oats and linseed
had continued to advance, and the Exchange on
England had also further risen.
It was stated on ’Change in New York on Thurs
day, that the private letters received by the Canada,
contained orders for the purchase of considerable
cotton.
The Tennessee Legislature has passed stringent
amendments to the free banking law of that State,
which, in the estimation of some, are considered
paramount to its total prohibition.
To the Public.
YVarkenton, Ga., Feb. 23, 1356.
1 notice in the Tri-Weekly Augusta Constitution
j alist, of the 22d inst., the following advertisement,
: published at the instance of Jesse M. .Tones, Esq.,
to which I propose making a few remarks in reply, '
! to exculpate myself from the slur which he has in- !
sidiously cast upon me in a public capacity. The
| advertisement is as follows :
| “ The copartnership of Jesse M. Jones and An
drew Jackson, Attorneys at Law, in the Town of
Warren ton, and doing business under the name,
| firm and style of Jones & Jackson, is now and for
ever dissolved.” Signed Jesse M. Jones.
To the dissolution of said copartnership, “ now
and forever,” I most cheerfully aud most cordially
respond amen. But for Jesse Mercer Jones to
surreptitiously bring it before the public, in a shape
derogatory to my professional character and stand
ing, not only shows his guileful calibre, but does
me a wrong which I will not submit to.
Tiie inference to be drawn from the above ad
vertisement is this: That Mr. Jones, having asso
j eiated himself with me in the above capacity, found
| that I was untrustworthy, aud that to save himself
| unharmed, he had to declare the copartnership
, “nowand forever dissolved,” with his name ap
! pended to the advertisement. This inference can
i not be sustained by facts.
! In the lirst place, .said copartnership was not
formed at my instance, but at the instance of Mr.
Jones. In the second place, 1 gave Mr. Jones no
cause of dissatisfaction whatever, bn! had sufficient
cause from him to make me shatter said copartner
ship into ten thousand fragments. I could state
them, but I forbear doing it unless he insists upon
it. This community understands it all. Being de
sirous of dissolving said copartnership, I wrote to
YH-. Jones, at Milledgevillc, to that effect, lie wrote
me no answer, with the exception of the above ad
vertisement, in which lie has sought to create the
impression, upon the public mind, that there was
something "rotten in Denmark,” and that he wus
compelled to flee to the mountains to save his olfac
tory nerves from the awful stench of dead carcases.
Ido not wish to do the gentleman any wrong. I
would not injure a single hair upon Ills head, but
simply wish to put myself right before the public.
\\ hen I wrote to him, 1 expected be would sigtiifx
ins assent to a dissolution, as a matter of course,
and then it could be published “ dissolved by mu
tual consent,” which is the proper way, and then
1 should not be put to the trouble of putting the
matter in print. But being as it is, 1 cannot help
it. Y ours, Ac., Ac., Andrew Jackson.

anything ever before made. The exceeding firm
ness, depths of light, and shade and richness of
tone, is wonderful. They do not reverse the sub
ject; but represent everything in its true position.
They arc without the glare of a Daguerreotype, and
can be seen in any view.
Instructions given in the Art. Daguerreotypes
as usual taken in every style of the Art. Speci
mens of Ambrotypes can be seen at Tucker’s Pre
mium Gallery.
