The adjourned meeting, to receive the report of the Corfu) It tee of Thirteen, was held yesterday af ternoon at the City Hall. It was numerously at tended, as considerable interest was felt, for and against, the city subscription to the stock of the Savannah Valley Railroad. We publish in other columns the report of the proceedings. Interesting addresses were delivered by Prof. I. ! <la it v tv, C’ol. 11. 11. Ct'MMiKO, and Judge Jonx 1' Kino, in favor of the citv subscription—and bv .1 tidge W.m. T. Gocld, and Judge Wa. SonucT, in opposition to the measure. Letter of Mr. C'aruthers, of Missouri. W e have, from day to day, delayed, from want of space, the publication of this able exposition of political affairs and the state of parties, it is a document, however, that will keep, and our readers shall have an opportunity of seeing it in our col umns when the press of other matter will permit. Mr. Caruthkks is a Whig —an old line Whig—but he cannot, on account of old antagonisms to the Democratic party, join the Know Nothings and their Freesoil allies. He has felt that patriotism and duty required him to co-operate in the present juncture of affairs, as developed at Washington city, with the Democratic party. In giving his reasons he presents an exposition destined to produce a powerful influence upon the Whigs of the .South. What W ould Satisf y Them i The Nashville Gazette very pointedly says: "The Pierce organs denounce the American Convention for repealing the 12th section. When the lath section was adopted, they denounced it as non-committal and worthless. They were opposed to its adoption, and now they are horrified at its re peal. They have but one article in their creed, and that is to object to every thing that the American party proposes.” The .Savannah Republican, in copying the above, says: “ The Americans have not only repealed the 12th section, but have absolutely substituted for it theit own doctrine of non-intervention, and yet these pseudo-patriots but howl the louder.” The Nashville Gazette does not state why the ‘‘l2tli section” was repealed—nor why it was that the southern members temporarily withdrew when the old platform was nullified. We will supply the omission by using the language of Mr. Boris— that section “me not been, and cannot be ratified bj any one ]• 'ret: State in the Union.” Bui perhaps Mr. Butts’opinion will not be suf ficient. Then here follows what Mr. Boteler, of Va., a member of the last Philadelphia Know Nothing Convention said, in his place in the Con vention : " He had c ine here expecting to find national men, and he had heard professions of peace and harmony; but lie was satisfied, from the speeches made tins afternoon, that the American party of tin A. >rth wax com/xsd of A’, ditionisti. [Cries of “No ! No!” and much excitement.] lie was satis fied ol'the fact. He could hope for no union w ith men holding such sentiments; he considered the party a failure in a national way, and he moved that the Convention do now adjourn, sine die.” The Savannah Republican says the American parly “ repealed the 12th section.” Indeed! What portion of the party? Why was it done: Could the southern members of the party prevent it? Did they not try? And when they failed, what did they do? Why, they “gloried in their shame." Lassoed. —The new Know Nothing Platform in its 13th article draws up a bill of indictment against “the reckless and unwise policy of the pro mt administration” as “shown in granting to uu naturaUzed foreigners the right to suffrage in Kan sas and Nebraska." This part of the Kansas act has boon a standing theme for the patriotic denun ciations of the Know Nothing orators and papers ' \\ e may as well lasso them now as at any other time. Here is the clause in the Kansas act: Pr-rided, That the right of suffrage and of hold ing office shall be exercised only by citizens of the l mted States above the age of t wen tv-one tears, and those above that age who shall have declare., on oath their intention to support the Constitution of the l mted States ami the provisions of ifiis act Now this clause is copied letter for letter, comma for comma, w ord for word, from the act of Con gress establishing the Territory of Washington, "approved March -*,rd, Is;,:.;," by Millard Fillmore. Thin Mr. F. was in favor of letting “unnaturalized foreigners” vote then - Whigs and Democrats wort so also, for the bill excited no opposition, and was passed as a matter of course. In condeming the Kansas act Ibr this clause the Know Nothing Council at the same time passed sentence on Mr. Fillmore. —HuntsvilleDemocrat, March 12. Zdf r The anti-Nebraska caucus, which met in \\ asiiington City on the 11th inst., after listening to several speeches, in which they declared that the issue in the next Presidential election should be. “freedom in the Territories,” they adjourned until Tuesday next. Z-iF' Corn in Nashville, Tenn., on the 12th inst., was quoted from fifteen to twenty cents per bushel. Nkw Orleans, March 13. Cotton is firmer, with sales of fourteen thousand bales. Molasses 30 cents C gallon. Sterling Exchange S 1 .. Freiglus are tending upward. l-W~ The line of railroad between Huntsville, Ala., and Stevenson is completed. It is a portion of the Memphis and Charleston railroad. Within a few .lays land warrants have advanced in Washington city from four to five cents per acre. Warrants for eighty and one hundred and sixty acres are at £l.lO to £l.ll ; for sixtv and one hundred and twenty acres, at £1.0.5 to $1."6; for forty acres, at £l.lO to £1.1". The number of bales of cotton carried over the Memphis end of the Memphis and Charleston road for the year ending 2»th February 1554, wasliftv s;x thousand eight hundred and seventy-five, for 1 855 it was sixty-seven thousand seven hundred and iourteen, and for 1850 it was ninety-eight thousand nine hundred and eight bales. The Know Nothing candidate for sheriff (once a Democrat! in Davidson county, Tenn., was beaten by an nnti-Know Nothing Whig. In Shelbv conn tv, Tenn., “ two of the fattest offices in the coun ty” were secured by the anti-Know Nothings! These are or were Know Nothing strong holds. The Selma Sent hoi, the most rabid Know Noth ing paper in the State, is perfectly dumfounded by the nominations at Philadelphia. It swallows the “Verbiage Platform,” but can’t gasp out a word for the nominations. But its opinion may be in ferred from the incidental remark in an article on another subject. “The infamous and murderous t üba proclamation of Fillmore.” Harsh words, Mr. Sentinel, to use towards yatr file leader! Hox. J. Glaxcy Jones.—A correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes: The Hon. J. Glanct Jones, ot y ;, ut State, has been elected an honorarv member of the Georgia Military Institution. This honor, the donors say, is conferred on him as a just appreciation of the manner in which he has ever defended the constitutional rights of all sec tions on the floor of Congress.

Jxcxson, our Minister Resident at Vienna, and the Austrian Government. A correspondent says: “ The misunderstanding has been caused by the arrest and imprisonment of an American citizen named Pqe-ar, who after seven months close con finement, during which he was not permitted tocom munieate in any way with even his minister or con sul, was tried on the 31 st of March, 1854, by a secret and unknown tribunal, convicted of treason, and sentenced to ten years labor in irons in the trench es at Therisienstadt in Bohemia. Mr. Jackson, on the 4th of February demanded a properly certified copy of the testimony said to have been used in the conviction of Spears, and informed Count Buol in his note that unless lie received an affirmative reply within four weeks, he should, at the expira tion of that time, withdraw front a court where he could no longer remain with honor to his coun try or advantage to its citizens. As there is no probability that the desired answer will be forth coming, or that any testimony’ reallv existed against the man, Mr. Jackson inav be expected to leave V ienna shortly after you receive this.” The Hon. George Evans, formerly a prominent Senator of the United States, has been elected At torney General of the State of Maine. The winter in Europe has been unusually mild, while here it has been so intensely cold.

Now, gentlemen, you have got your £2OO a year, open columns, change front to rear, and let us have a taste. “Mose" did not oppose the appropriation to you, anil you should not oppose it to him. “Fair play is a jewel." Mose. To the Elitor of the. Constitutionalist: The last account (1555) published by the Com mittee of Accounts, shows that the Canal tax for the present year was estimated at £13,500, this, at a half per cent, would show the estimated value of real estate, in Augusta, to be £2,700,000. By the same paper, the general tax was estimated at about £37,317.62, which, at one per cent, indi cates an estimated value of £3,731,762. The dif ference £1,031,762, would be the estimated value of all other taxable property. Now if figures are facts, and facts are stubborn things, I have produced an array which must be equal to a battery of bombs, in fighting the “main battle.” Thus, the debt of the city is £400,000 and she has available property to the amount of £3,000,000 !!! I presume that it will not be claimed that the individual "stockholders” in this copora tion are not liable for its debts. Ihe £2,700,000 of real estate is owned bv about six hundred and seveutv-two “stockholders.” Now, if they had their exclusive sanctums” and each £IOO had one vote, then these six hundred and se venty-two iudviduals would wield an aggregate vote of twenty-seven thousand. Under such cir cumstances, considered by Real Estate as nothing more or less than just, what would become of the “outsiders?” The answer is obvious, they would throng the railroad depots not to bay Augusta, but to fly man it. J o say the least,it appears to me a little curious that any one professing to be sensitive about the delicate principle of city credit, should take so much pains to break it down, not only by underrating the abil ity of the city to meet any reasonable engagement it may make, but by udvocaliugu principle which is nearly obsolete. The power of money is ad mitted, but that the owners of real estate should claim the power to control and make all other in terests subservient to their views is at the present time ridiculous. The greatest outward demonstra tion of the liberty of England is, that the Commons have the privilege of voting the supply of money to the government. And in this country the same principle prevails; the object in both is to secure the poor against the oppression which experience has taught them would be exercised by the rich. in reference to the account published by the Committee, it is to be remarked that that for the present year is only an estimate, and is beaded probable, Ac., and I’doubt very much if Re al Es tate, even with the books before him, could have come much nearer than £15,000, in making up the £131,301.fi4, estimated for the year. Trie estimate itself does not prove anything, and Real Estate is in the same position—he says, “ the reed receipts from all sources does not cover the expenditures.” Tiiis may lie because tiie receipts, as estimated, nave not been realize/, or it may be that ihev were, md the expenditure exceeded the estimate! In either case I do not see any ground to support die intimation that from extravagance orsomeoth er culpable cause, the deficit of £15,000 is to he ■on idered as certain to occur annually. Real Estate has drawn a sad picture of the bur thens a poor fellow will have to bear incase lie should chose to dwell in his own house, if he should imagine the city sold. He puts it down tints: To the State and Cnuntv on its value.. .. £y no Insurance, 2 per cent go 00 Repairs, Ac., 2}4 percent 25 ot) City Taxes, 2J-6 per cent 25 0e» £73 00 This, of course, looks dreadful, and I have not the least doubt but that Real Estate honestly be lieves that it is so. Blit when we reflect that the poor fellow is now, and has for years, if the above is true, been paying £63.nn, the great bug-bear dwindles down to the pitiful sum of £10.0,;>. If Re\l Estate should succeed in frightening some d these £],ooii fellows just beyond the corporate limits, how would they stand then? The answer is easy, ils furnished by Real Estate: To the State and County on its value £3 00 Insurance, 2 per cent. 20 00 Repairs, Ac., 2 1 7 percent 25 00 £46 00 A grand difference of £25.00 :made 111 his favor. But when he finds mileage in his doctor's bill, the wear and tear of a horse and buggy, the inconve nience of schooling his children, and that he has to perforin a Sabbath day’s journey to Church, 1 would not be surprised to find him willing to pay £25 for the privilege of remaining in the city. 1 tear that Real Estate has essaved to play upon a harp of a thousand strings, without the spirit of a just man made perfect fund lhat he will have to watch and wait a long time before he will have an opportunity of investing his hoard at the sale of Augusta. Locomotive. A letter dated l’aris, Feb. 21, says: “I am informed 011 very creditable authority that a perfect understanding has been come to be tween the Emperor and Lord Clarendon with re gard to the interpretation to be given to the fifth point of the Austrian conditions, and that the English and French plenipotentiaries will conse quently act in perfect accord in the conferences. "The French government has at last taken a step which indicates, to a certain extent, what its real views are with regard to peace. The ,s iecle yester day published an article, in which it insisted, in contradiction to the Deb its, that the destruction of the arsenals and dockyards of Nicolaieff was ne cessarily comprised in the conditions accepted by Russia for the neutralization of the Black Sea; and in which also it said—what was far more important —that as the war was undertaken to establish a new equilibrium of power in Europe, something must be done for the suffering nationalities. Thu article is reproduced without the alteration of a word in the official Mbniteur. The sensation "produced by this reproduction is immense ; and no wonder, for it shows that the sentiments of the Siecle are those of the French government. The peace fac tion are overwhelmed with confusion at what the Mbniteur has done. As another ‘sign of the times,’ I may mention that the semi-official Patrie of this evening protests that the London Times did the French government great injustice the other day in representing that it leaned more to Austria than to England. “Prince Napoleon yesterday received Lord Cla rendon, and to-day the other plenipotentiaries of the conferences were nresenteu to him.” Menu \ <*uk Pens.—lt would appear to he a prevalent notion, that writing, though not reading, comes by nature ; for to write illegibly amounts to a fashion. Jacob Bryant said of Archdeacon Coxe’s hieroglyphics, that thev could be neither a “hand” nor a "fist” but a “foot, and that a club one.” They formed a clurasv tangled black skein that ran across the paper in knots it was impossi ble to unite iuto a meaning. On one occasion. Bishop Barrington, while expostulating with him for sending a letter he could not read, told him of a very bad writer a Frenchman of high rank, who, answering a letter he had received from a person of similar rank, expressed himself thus: " Out of respect, sir, I write to you with my own hand, but to tacilitate the reading I send you a copy which 1 have caused my amanuensis to make.” The carriage manufactory of N.

N. } r . Herald. From the South Side Democrat. Capital—Kentucky Know Nothingism. Decidedly the best practical legislative joke whichever fell under our notice, came off a few days since in the Legislature of Kentucky. The Senate of that State is Know Nothing in the pro portion of about three to two. At the period to which we allude that grave body was engaged in the discussion of that portion of the Governor’s Message relative to Federal matters, and a long string of resolutions of the culvert stripe, were in troduced and pressed to a conclusion. At this stage Mr. Martin, of Floyd county, a Democratic member, took a copy of the Constitution of the United States, and transcribed therefrom the fol lowing passage: Resole, d, That no religious test should ever be required as a qualification to any’office or public trust under the United States. Never dreaming, as it would appear, this was a “resolution” which every one of them was bound by the most solemn obligations to observe, these K. N. worthies tired up immediately, braced their nerves to resist this emmissary of the l’ope with his papistical heresies, and indignantly toted down tnc Constitution ! We quote from the Frankfort- Yeoman : “ Those in favor of endorsing the. Constitution were Messrs. Barlow, Conklin, DeCourcey, Ed wards, Gillis, Ilardin, Headley, Hogan, Kinsr, Mar tin, Matthewson, McFarland, iSilvertooth, Walton Wells—ls. “ Those against it were Messrs. Bucknor, Bul lock, Burton, Collins, Gillis, Edwards, Haggin, Harris, Hay, Howard, Irving, King, Kohlbass, I Ripley, Smith, Sudduih, Wadsworth, Williams, . Woodson, Wright—2o. “All of these gentlemen are Know Nothings, par excellence, and by this vote they virtually nullify j the clause of the Constitution of the United States, 1 of which the resolution was a correct copy verbat im <1 literatim /" This is unquestionably the best joke of the sea j son. Pass it round. A Distinction \ni> x Difference.— The printei '* bov is in the habit of draw ing upon the kindness - ol the newspaper patrons whom he visits weekly, for it small donation about New Year’s time.

Among others, it was handed to a worthy lady, who, ignorant of what was actually wanted, w ent to consult her bus : band, not out of bed at au hour so early as the call was made. " Here is the deevil’s printer,” said tie* good lady. "What will we due wi’ him?" " [file’s the dcevil’s printer,” said the husband, ; “ hae nothing to do wt’ hint, but if lie’s the prin ter’s deevil, gie him a six pence.” Mr. Rowcroft, the British Consul at Cincinnati, was brought before the U.

From our long acquaintance with the proprietor, and with numerous individuals who hare used his preparation with perfect success for the last tw< years, we feel no hesitation in recommending the article as superior to any of the preparations now in use tor the same purpose, viz: for restoring grav hair to its original color, a sure and perfect cure for baldness, and a never-failing preventive for Un failing of the hair. It is decidedly the best and most popular in use lor beautifying, preserving, restoring and strength ening the hair, relieving diseases of the skin, and removing scurff, dandrufl'and all eruptions and fe verish heat from the scalp. M e speak in relation to the above from what we know, having been personally acquainted with nu merous persons who have used the Restorative for the above purposes with the most gratifying re sults. It is not often we notice a patent medicine. In deed, we think we have never puffed one before ; but I’rof. Wood’s Hair Restorative is something si superior to most of the preparations of the day, that we cannot forbear asking the attention of out readers to it. - Catholic Vindicator.
