Tiie third sitting of the Plenipotentiaries was •hi on Saturday, when they agreed that the Ans , i protocol, as accepted by Russia, should form oasis ot their negotiations and signed that pro pare and simple, giving it all the power and <f preliminaries, and upon that proceeded to discussion of the terms of peace. The Rus - ins conceded all the demands of the Western avers, almost without resistance. A dispatch dated Berlin, the 4th inst., states that Empemr Alexander had received at St. Peters -ga notification from Count Orloff of the signa :-,-e of the preliminaries of peace, and that his Majesty had, on the 3d inst., i Monday,) transmitted telegraph, to Count Orloff, a dispatch declaring approval of the signature. The Russian am bassador at Berlin had been informed of these cir cumstances. Tii ■ fourth sitting of the Conference was held on Tuesday, the Ith inst. The Tim-*' Paris correspondent writes, on the inst.: “No secret has been better kept than the edings of Conference up to the present mo- I ■s far as details are concerned.

FRANCE. T . • session of the Senate for the year 1856 was nedon Monday, the 3d, by the Emperor in per »in. who delivered the following speech : •• Peers and Senators: —On the last occasion of n-- imbling you, serious anxieties prevailed. T ■ allied armies were engaged in a siege, where tii.- obstiuaney of the defence raised a doubt of „, ■ Europe, uncertain, seemed to be await the end of the struggle before pronouncing - if To maintain the war, I asked you for a loan, tr-heli you voted unanimously, though the amount n igiit have appeared excessive. ■ The rise in the price of provisions threatened ti.- laboring class with general inconvenience, and u disturbance of our monetary system caused a fear ji ul T liusiiv-ss and labor would slacken. Thanks !,. . ar aid and the energy displayed both in France and England, and above all to the assis- . s.stanc- - - f Prov idence, these dangers, if they have n.i' eatiielv disappeared, have been for the most part averted. A great feat of arms at last decided in favor of the allies, a struggle unexampled in history far its inveteracy. From that moment the opin ion i.f Europe was more openly expressed. Our , sncYs were everywhere extented and strength ■•Ttie third loan was completed without difficul ty In country gave me afresh proof of its cou ti-i-i,- e bv subscribing for a sum five times larger ;~a that 1 asked for. It has supported with ad mirable resignation the sufferings inseparable fieai the dearness of provisions—sufferings alle ria.ed bv private charity, by the zeal of the nm iTa ipgiities, and bv the ten millions distributed to tie departments.' The arrival of foreign grain has . produced a considerable fall ; the anxiety niscdbv the disappearance of gold lias dimin -d. and never has labor been more abundant or wages higher. - Tjjj hazards of war have revived the military si- rit of ti.i nation. Never have there been so manv voluntary enlistments, nor so much ardor amongst the conscripts designated by lot. •' To this brief expose of the present situation must he added facts of great political signification. •• The Queen of Drear Britain, desiring to give a proof of her confidence and of her esteem for our country, and to make our relations more intimate, cici- ' ; r into France. The enthusiastic welcome she received ha- proved to her how profound were . the sentiments her presence inspired, and was of a nature to strengthen the alliance of the two peo ■ Tlie King of Piedmont, who, without look lug behind him, embraced our cause with that iiirag- ms spirit which he had before exhibited . on the field of battle, has also come to France to ' cvn- crate a union already cemented by the brave ry of his soldiers. “ These sovereigns have beheld a country, late ly -1 agitated and disinterested of its rank in the ■ .uneil.-'- of Europe, now prosperous, peaceable and sjiccted—making war, not with the momentary d diriums of passion, but with the calmness of jus- ■ tiee and the energy of duty-. They have seen that Franc- was sending three hundred thousand men • iss the seas, convoking to Paris at the same time all the arts of peace, as if she meant to say to Ter- e—'The existing war is to me only an epi s do. My ideas and my powers are always partly directed towards the arts of peace. Let us neglect a idling for a good understanding, and drive me t . throw into the field of battle all the resources anti all the energy of a great nation.’ ” This appeal seems to have been understood, and the winter, by suspending hostilities, favored 'i.o intervention of diplomacy. Austria resolved ,i decisive step, which introduced into the de liberations the entire influence of the sovereign of a ’.ast empire. Sweden linked herself more close- : iv to England and France by a treaty that guaran teed the integrity of her Territory. Lastly, the A ic ■ or entreaties of all the cabinets reaching St. JVi, rsburg, the Emperor of Russia, the inheritor cf a situation he had not created, seemed to be in spired with a sincere desire to put an end to the • auses that led to this sanguinary conflict. He de n-rosined to accept the propositions transmitted bv Austria. The honor of bis arms satisfied, it was lo his own bonoi- to give way to the clearly ex pressed wish of Europe. “ The plenipotentiaries of the allied and bellige • n? powers are now assembled in Paris to decide i the conditions of peace. The spirit of modera :ion and equity that animates them all necessarily creates the hope of a favorable result. Neverthe less, let us await with dignity the end of the Con ferences, and be equally ready, if necessary, to d rev the sword anew, or extend a hand to those whom we have fairly fought. ’ Whatever may happen, let us occupy ourselves . the means calculated to augment tlie strength and riches of France. Let us, if possible, draw < -: dm alliance formed by a community of glory md ".i niices, and of which peace will far better x reciprocal advantages. “ Finally, in this solemn moment for the desti ' ■! if w .rld, let us put our trust in God, to si - ; i iHe may guide our efforts in a direc .in conductive to the interests of humanity and civilization.” - I: menu- was most enthusiastically received a Ins passage to and from the Salle des Marc chaux. j ENGLAND.

From the Ffew York Trihnne. News by the Persia. The news by the Persia is not of considerable moment. In the British House of Commons Lord , aimers ton announced that the preliminaries ot peace had been signed bv all the representatives of the several parties to the Paris Peace Conference, and its tone appeared to imply a hope, and inspire a, general confidence in the establishment of peace. I he speech ot Louis Napoleon, which will he found elsewhere, was marked by a similar character. The Conference still continues sitting, but the na ture or result of its deliberations are not permitted to transpire. A debate has taken place in Parliament on the subject of Church rates in England, and a motion in favor of abolition of the impost was carried bv a large majority—Lord Palmerston and the mem bers of his Government sustaining the rates. A new measure of Education was introduced bv Lord John Russell, but as it proposes the introduction of religious as well as secular education, it is not likely to succeed. A severe and bitter attack was made on Lords Raglan, Cardigan, Lucan, the Duke ; ot Cambridge, and Gen. Simpson, by Sir De Laev : Evans, who exposed in strong and' forcible lan guage the inability and corruption of the English ! military system. Rumors of a dissolution of Par- i Lament were still afloat, but they are not reliable. I In Ireland, the Tipperary Joint Stock Rank had i tailed for £4oii,ouo, of which £200,000 was an over- j draft of the late Mr. John Sadleir, and the remain- j mg £200,000 is said to he connected with his diffi- : eulties.

Jacksonville, March 20.—One of our poor 1 health-so! kingstrangers—tired and overborne with I the pains and pangs of a diseased body, long en dured and unassuaged by time or place—had hitn selt conveyed into an adjacent wood, and deliber- ■ a‘eiy took his own life, yesterday. He had a bov driving him in a buggv to the scene of the tragedy, and on his way stopped at a gunsmith’s and there purchased and j-n-re-l a pistol. He paid for it, got 1 his change, and drove on. Reaching a secluded ; spot, he paid the’tioy for his driving, and the money ! for the hire of tlie vehicle, and told him to drive hack. Tlie boy had hardly driven fifty yards, when lie heard the crack of the pistol, and turned hack and found the unhappy victim with his brains blown out. He had put a" letter into the office, which has been sent on to bis brother in Boston, \ under an envelope, by the postmaster. The body was brought home to the Jtidson House, and to- i 1 lav respectably intern!. The name of tlie person is J. N. Knox, of Boston, but for several rears a resident of Alabama. Before committing the deed, he had deposited about *i,ooo with the keeper of the hotel, and took his receipt for tlie same. He j was in extremely had health, scarce able to walk, ; and had remarked that he had suffered more than : forty deaths. “ I rncit gui palitur.” T. Lol. L. VV.

It is proposed in general terms iu the report of i ihe committee ot thirteen, to sell the eighteen hun dred shares of the Georgia railroad stock, now owned by the city. If thev- had not seen how the ' details could be arranged to prevent a sacrifice, it is presumable they would not have suggested such a measure. I doubt if there is any man in Augusta, unless it is Real Estate, who, if he { had eighteen hundred bales of cotton for sale, | would insist on selling them at once, and in one j lot especially, if it was known to him that there was not any one man who would thus purchase ; them. The failure of the minority to turn up •lack, at the late meeting, should be a warning to Real Estate and others that in their eagerness to accomplish their purposes they are liable to miss the right path. Real Estate says “Who will tell me that any other place than the terminus of a railroad re ceives the great bulk of the produce, the growth of the country along or beyond its line?” and, ; unconsciously, perhaps, answers himself adverse ly in the statement that Atlanta is progressing, because, even with the incubus of connection, she is the recipient of heavy articles from New Or leans by the way of Montgomery, at such advan tage as'to enable her to undersell Charleston, Sa- I vannah and Augusta. These heavy articles seem | to be a sort of extraordinary dispensation of com ; merce in favor of Atlanta alone, as it mav be in ferred from the assertions of Real Estate, that no j other town under the sun could survive a connec tion. But I dare say there are some among our j citizens who, in the* early days of railroads, re member the importance attached to the idea of j tapping the great valley of the Mississippi, for the i identical purpose of participating in the trade of | these heavy articles. It was not at that time pro- I posed that Charleston or Savannah should supply I the great West with Pork, Sugar and Molasses, | but it was expected that they would be the recip j ents of them and other Western products at less I cost than by the dangerous and expensive route (around the Cape of Florida. The prosperity of Atlanta, if it proves anything, proves that its en ; terprising and industrious citizens have been wise | enough to fasten themselves upon the connection, | well knowing they were thus placing themselves upon a living stream of commerce, which, as it flowed on, would contribute to their success. Athens has about the same natural local advan tages as Atlanta, and Athens is at the terminus of a railroad. It seems curious, in view of all that | has been said against connection, but it is true, that Athens is dying out commercially because she has no connection. There is nothing mysterious in all ■ this, for Atlanta, like a great crane, has sense ; enough to know that eels are not the proper diet ■ for such birds. Whatever is true of Atlanta with respect to some j heavy articles, is also true of Augusta, and it is ; probable that Augusta can undersell both Charles ton and Savannah in all products brought to her : from the West ; lit is, of course, is'in accordance with the universal laws of trade. Products from the North, however, according to the same law, : can be sold for less in Savannah and Charleston than in Augusta, and for less in Augusta than in Atlanta. This is not the secret of success ; it re quires a long and weary apprenticeship and great energy and industry to learn that, and prosper. The unfortunate investments in paintery and put terv along the lines of railroads in progress, may indicate a strong disposition to participate in hum bug, which is always more or less fashionable, hut that does not prove that all who venture upon schemes of improvement are prepared to sell their birth right for a mess of potnge. I remember the first steamboat built iu Savan nah, and the curious crowd on the wharves in Charleston, when she made tier first appearance there. I remember the first iron horse that came to Hamburg front Charleston. And I also remem ber that there were old fogies in those days who scoffed at the idea that there could be anything j superior to a top-sail schooner, or ox cart, for the ; purposes of trade or travel. Remembering those things, I am not surprised to learn that there are ; those who resist the connection of railroads in this i city, and refuse to aid in the construction of the Savannah Valley road, because they believe that : trade will be so facilitated by them that the old ladies of Carolina and Georgia will tramp off to Charleston for their Hyson and Macuboy. Locomotive. '-z'C'The distance from Charleston to Atlanta is three hundred and ton miles, and from Atlanta to New Orleans, byway of Montgomery, is six bun di ed and sixty seven miles. From New Orleans to Charleston, nine hundred and seventy-seven miles, byway of Montgomery, but by the wav of Havana, twelve hundred and sixty-seven miles. To the Editor of the Constitutionalist : In my communication intended for the special benefit of Richmond, as appears by the Chronicle & Sentinel of last Friday, 1 did not aim to be smart, and if anything in it produced a smarting effect, it must have been the result of its truthfulness, which, 1 will hope to ho excused for saying, was not the result of effort or accident. 1 beg leave to the attention of your readers to the following remarks, Richmond says : “ Now will South Carolina, after spending years of labor and untold millions of money, in creating a trade like this, lie on her oars, and allow us to interpose between that trade and her great seaport, to divert it all to Augusta, and here bring in, not only the competition of our own merchants, but the rivalry of Savannah. She can cut us off without difficul ty.” In answer to this I would ask, if the thing is so easily done, why ha* not Charleston and South Carolina come forward before this and cut us off at once, by undertaking t<> build the Valley road to Hamburg or Aiken, and preventing it, as they had the power to do, from crossing the Savannah ? If it would be so easy, then it would certainly be easier for them now, as there would not he any new interests or old business relations established in Augusta to be bought up or otherwise dissolved. The truth is, the people of Charleston and Savan nah know they must inevitably participate in any improvcinent in the trade of Augusta, and that if her communication with them was cut off by a wall of fire, it would be more detrimental to her than to them. Suppose for a moment, that Richmond, Real Estate, and their coadjutors were to fill up the Savannah river with some solid material, (not water, for of that they are afraid, and yet I have no doubt would oppose the construction of an em bankment to keep it out*, then our commercial link would be broken; let them destroy the bridges, another link would be gone ; and then let them wall out the Waynesboro’railroad !! I What would be the consequence? In about twenty-four j hours tlie extension of the South Carolina railroad to Anderson, Ac., would be decided, and it is pro | bablc that in about the same time a line from i Washington to the Central road would have friends i ready to start that enterprise: This is a supposed I case, and if I am not much mistaken, these very ; active friends of Augusta would be pleased to see ; it realized, for 1 cannot see that their policy leads !to anything else. 1 have nothing to do with the I motives at the bottom of their scheme, and I am bound in charity to believe they think honestly their course in this matter is the proper one for their individual interests, and all I ask of them is that thev will let their fellow-citizens aet freely in accordance with their own convictions in matters of which, considering their intelligence, they are most probably as well informed as themselves.

But there’s one humbug more, atid the least of the train— That vapor thatsnrings from the novelist’s brain— The bubble called love, which its origin claims Alone in the fancy of novel-spoilt dames. 1 presume it is true, as we’ve all heard it said, It inhabits not seldom the college-boy’s head, j Imparting a smoothness and softness of skin ’ That is equalled by naught but the softness within, j Ah ! pitiful creatures, how can they esteem .'so highly the visions of which they but dream? But let them alone, they arc sure to repent I'.re in life's busy battle they’ve many years spoilt. When Poverty enters the threshold,' she makes it A point to give Love through the window his exit: And your lovely young wife, through the town all extol her, (’ant compare with the charms of the all-migldy dollar.

A writer in the Tampa Peninsular, which, by the way, brings nothing new from the Indian war, suggests the following plan, or driving out the Setninoles : 1 would land five thousand infantry, divided in to fifty companies of one hundred each, at flftv of the most acccsshlc points, simultaneous)v, with at least three months’provisions; let each cumpanv build a blockhouse for the protection of the provi sions, which can be done in one day ; leave ten j men to guard each blockhouse; let the other nine- j t v men operate as best they can, in small boats or j on land, as their respective localities may require; | at the same time let ten companies of horsemen from the interior operate on the Indians on the North side, while ten other companies guard our frontier.

FARRELL’S j CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT. THE beautiful and fertile region skirting the desert of Arabia, abounds with rare plants and odorous woods, whence are procured those aro | rnatic gums and balsams of which this Liniment is I composed, and by whose stimulating, unctuous and ; penetrating properties it is, when applied, diffused ’ through the whole nervous system, allaying the > most intense pain in a few minutes. Try it, when ; you will be convinced that no preparation possesses in so high a degree, its perfect anodyne qualities. Its action is prompt and effective. It penetrates the flesh to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, re storing use to limbs paralysed for years, and where the flesh has wasted away, leaving nothing but ! skin and bone, excites a healthy action, causing new flesh to grow out and fill up the shrivelled part. It restores the synovial tluid or joint water, and this is the reason why it lias been so success- ful in diseases of the joints. In affections of the : Spine, Liver, Lungs and Kidneys, this great reme -1 dy stands before any other ever produced. For ague cake or enlargement of the spleen, it is a spe | citie. For any internal inflammation, yon will find it gives great relief. It has no equal in the world | for Rheumatism—also, cramps, swelling, niimb | ness, weak joints, Spine and Chest, pains, wounds, I chilblains, burns, sore throat, bites of insects and i reptiles, salt rheum, warts, corns, mange, and in | deed nearly all diseases which require an internal application, and many others, are greatly benefitted i by it. It is used externally with great success in goitre, or swelled neck, Scrofula or King’s Evil, Liver Complaint, nervous diseases, Ac. For Horses or Cattle, it is as effectual as in diseases of man. Will cure any case of Sweeney in existence ; also, Spavin, Splint, Ringbone, Big-head, Fistula, Farcy, Foil Evil, Windgalts, Strains, Bruises, Ac. Look out for Counterfeits ! The public are cautioned against another coun terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan- • gerous of all the counterfeits, because bis having the name of Farrell, many will bttv it in good ; faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex j ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error ; when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil | effects. The genuine article is manufactured onlv bv 11. | G.
