iiILV CtNSTITtITIONIUST BY JAMES OARDNER. FRIDAY MORNING, M ARCH 38. Contract Advertiser* I Must remember that five o’clock, P. M., every | Jay, is the latest hour for receiving their adver- , rising favors, for publication the ensuing morning. I i River News. The river is three feet by the mark. The steam- j er Randolph arrived yesterday afternoon. Officers Richmond Hussars. At an election, held at the City Hall on the 26th inst., the following gentlemen were elected officers of the Richmond Hussars : George W. Evans, Captain. William E. Hearing, Ist Lieutenant. Milo Hatch, 2d Lieutenant. John S. Sale, Cornet. New' Rooks. “ Christine ; or, Woman’s Trials anu Tri umphs,” by Miss Laura J. Curtis. It is publish ed by DeWitt A Davenport, 100, Nassau street, New York. A reviewer says of this work : “ Miss Laura Curtis bids fair to eclipse all the bright particular j stars that have appeared in the literary firmament I for the last ten years. “ There is a freshness about this book that is j truly delightful. There is nothing common-place. The author has marked out for herself a new field, and treated her subject with consummate ability. The interest is unflagging, to the end ; and wc feel, when we have done, that this is the advent in literature of one who will make her mark and take her stand among the most gifted authors of the day.” This work is for sale by M. G. McKinne. The Jullien Minstrels. This corps of melodists closed a very successful engagement in this city last evening. They came among us somewhat unheralded by the stamp of “fifty consecutive weeks of crowded houses and enthusiastic audiences in New York,” but if they have not as high an order of musical talent and managing tact as some of their predecessors, they give very agreeable entertainments, and there is an interest and romance as well as ability about Hernandez that will attract crowded houses every where. The ladies, proud of the noble daring and gallantry of this man, “will go to see him,” and partly to this cause we attribute the presence of the large number of ladies who attend the perform ances of the Julliens. But independent of this, the entertainments are well worthy of patronage. Windy Weather. The blustering condition of the weather, with the flying dusl, is rather in strange contrast with the weather experienced during the past four months. Extra prudence should now be observed by all oui|citizens, and our domestics should be watched and warned of the dangers which might result from any carelessness in handling fire. Our Firemen should see to it that their apparatus are in good working order —the proper officer should see to the condition of our cisterns —and the City Council should have an extra and efficient nigh watch on duty during theprevalence of the presen blustering weather. By being fully and timely prepared for any contingency which may occur, the apprehension of much damage is abated, aud we are ready to extend an efficient protection to property. We are indebted to the Hons. Howeli. Cobb, A. 11. Stephens, Robert Toombs and other members of Congress, for valuable public docu ments. The communication from Mr. T. S. Piggot, the Agent of the New York Associated Press, in replv to our remarks of Sunday morning last, will appear to-morrow. Mr. Nelson Robinson, a prominent and wealthy member of the Board of Broker’s, and one of the house of Drew, Robinson & Co., New York, died very suddenly in that city, on the 24th inst. At the Girard College, in Philadelphia, founded by & foreigner, and instruction given with out charge, there are three hundred pupils born in Philadelphia, and only thirteen born in other places, and not one foreign born child. The party of gentlemen who left Charleston for Kansas, some time since, arrived at St. Louis on tlio 14th inst., and left on the 17th, for Kansas, About the same time a large body of Tennesseeans, with about twenty-five slaves, arr ived at St. Louis, from Naslmlle, destined also for Kansas. jugF" We see it stated, that if tansey is planted around fruit trees, the borer will not disturb them. It may be true. Massachusetts for Fil lniore. We find the following in a late Georgia Know Nothing paper: “ The Boston Journal expresses the opinion that Mr. Fillmore will carry Massachusetts, and savs : “Gen. Taylor’s chances were not more favorable in 184-s than those of Mr. Fillmore, seem to be now, but he carried the State by a handsome ma jority. The prospects of Gen. Scott were not brighter at the time he was nnmi nated, yet Massa chusetts was one of the few States which gave him a plurality.” It seems that the editor of the Boston Journal is not the only one in Massachusetts who enter tains this opinion. The following is the opinion expressed by another citizen of that State, whose position entitles him to know something about public sentiment there; and the grounds on which it acts, llis remarks are thus reported : “At a recent meeting of the Know Nothings of Massachusetts, where reports were made by dele gates to the Philadelphia Convention, Mr. "Fames, one of the delegates, said that .“he could do more for tlx cause of freedom and for the millions of slaves, by standing by Millard Fillmore and Andrew J. Donelson, than by lulling: and believing that, he was willing to spend his strength, and as much means as his purse would allow, in carrying for ihese nominations to a triumphant success, i Loud applause.) The only thing tor the American par ty of Massachusetts to do was to come out nobly, honorabl)’, and frankly, and sustain the nominees. He believed that if the Council ratified the nomi nations, and went into the Presidential campaign on the- Springfield platform, for he believed that Millard Ftilmore uasas good an anti-slavery man as any R-mihuc in who eouid be presented,) they would carry the rotate by “twenty thousand majority.” Those opinions of Mr. Fillmore’s claims, on anti-slavery men, are not confined to Massachu- j setts. The New \ ork Express, a leading Fillmore Know Nothing paper, thinks Mr. Fillmore is ; against the Nebraska Kansas act. It quotes from ! his message in ISSO, on the compromise bills, and says: “ No man can doubt that the writer of this mes sage would, if iu public life in 1854, have resisted the disturbances made of these compromise bills by Mr. Senator Douglas aud Mr. President Pierce, both northern men. No man can doubt that Mr. Fillmore thus regrets, and deeply’ regrets, the an nulment of the compact of 132", and all the fear ful sectional passions excited by it.” The Indiana Tribune, a Black Republican Know Nothing paper, proposed a coalition between the ; Bla k Republicans aud Know Nothings of that | State, to watch the Indiana Journal object*, j on the ground that Mr. Fillmore is committed by j bis sanction of the compromise act of 1860, to the j Nebrasku-Kansas acts. To this the Tribune res- 1 ponds: “ How do you know that Mr. Fillmore does not • fully sympathise with us in our opposition to that * stupendous swindle of Douglas & Co.? All his antecedents are on the side of freedom, and in op- j position to the extension of slavery. Have you ever read a message—have you erer heard a speech f —have you ever seen a letter—has even a private conversation of his been whispered in your ear— j that would jus’ifv the conclusion that he was now , a pr 5-slaverv man in sentiment, and ha: he would i not sao i a a measure for the restoration of sue I Missouri Compromise or the admission of Kansas ; as a free Stale? If you have seen or heard any- : thing of the Kind, let us have it. We demand to know the foundanon of your fiiih befoie you again j indulge iu suen injurious imputations towards the j candidate of the American party.” The Old Line Whigs. We commend to all right minded National Whigs of the South, the following sensible and patriotic view of the duty devolving upon them in the coming contest. It is presented by the Huntsville, Ala., Advocate, a prominent anti-Know Nothing Whig paper. “ We cannot support Mr. Fillmore at this time, ; because, by doing so, we would, in our opinion, be 1 aiding indirectly, but materially, the Black Re- ! publicans. The order which brings him forward, i in a vain but deperate hope to gain power, is in fragments. As a national order it is a humbug. In the North, freesoilism gives it what strength it j has. In the South, it gives abolition ‘aid and comfort’by dividing the South. It is not in the! race for the Presidency. The struggle is between the national Democracy and the Black Republi- : cans. The battle at the North has to be fought between these two parties, The Democracy is or- j ganized against abolition as well as Know Nothing- j ism. The slavery question is the great and the true ! issue in this contest. As a Southern man wc can- ; not join in any effort to divide the South. We go with that party, and the only party there, which fights abolitionism, and at the same time defends the equality of all citizens. Know Nothingism cannot master abolition; and it impeaches the patriotism of a large class of our citizens, and thus can never be national —the defender of the po litical privileges of all citizens. “ To divide the South is to aid the Black Repub licans. To aid them is to aid in what will dis solve this Union. To divide the South is to throw the election of President into the House. To do that is to lead to a result similar to the Speaker’s election —to place in the Presidential chair another Banks. What Know Nothingism effected in ' the one case by voting for Fuller, it may and ; can do in the other case case by supporting a third candidate. I “In thus acting, anti-Know Nothing Whigs feel j and know they are doing their duty to their coun try. Thev have no assaults to make on Mr. Fill more. Tliev would, if possible, rescue his past fame from she injury demagogues ‘on a wild hunt after office’ are inflicting upon it. If he yields to the tempters and accepts the nomination, the prin ciples he will then imbody will cause him to be op posed. The good he has done will insure him respect and courtesy at their hands. They may love Ciesar, but they yet love Rome more. Prin ciples first, and then men. But good men cannot make bad principles right. The leopard cannot change his spots or the Ethiopian his ebony hue. Know Nothingismjremains Know Nothingism. It is still like the unconverted Saul, ‘breathing out ihreatenings aud slaughter,’ going up to Damascus to persecute the disciples of the true and living faith.” JTgT* The contest which has been going on for some time past, against Mr. Matsell, the chief of Police of New York, has been decided in favor of Mr. Matsell. I-vs The ice crop in New York is much greater this season than ever known before, and the retail price, it is reported, will be a fraction less than last year. There were three hundred and sixty-one deaths in New York, last week. The Portsmouth Transcript publishes a list of the deaths in that place during the prevalence of yel low fever, last summer. It occupies more than two columns of the paper, and comprises one thousand and seventy-seven names. The recollection, even, of that terrible scourge, is sufficient to cause a shudder. To the Editor of the Constitutionalist: Mr. Editor—“ Light,” in yesterday's paper, at empts to be witty upon the subject of street preach ng, and suggests the City Hall as a field for mis ii,nary labor. We have no doubt that if “Light” limself is not a frequent visitor of the place de signated, his locality is iu fully as great need of ight as the City Hall. City Hall. To the Editor if the C net tionalist. “ How can she thus . n call us by our names. Unless it be by inspiration?”—Comedy of Errors. I dare say Richmond is more familiar with the puffj’ gentleman Falstaff, than I am, and is con sequently better able to appreciate the force of in stinct, but I make this concession without regret because it is really of little consequence to me how he managed to get off the track of the Savannah Valiev- railroad—l only hope he will stay off. Speaking of his catechism reminds me of the scene in the play where the actress, waiting the response of the Oracle says almost inaudibly— “lt that Thunder V” Locomotive. Savannah River Valley Railroad. At a called meeting of the City Council of Au gusta, the following preamble and resolutions, in roduced by Mr. Butt, were adopted : W hereas, a majority of the Committee, appoint 'd to report upon the*propriety of the City aiding !i ihe construction of the Savannah Valley railroad; ind said majority being supposed to represent the views of a majority of the legal voters of this city. Therefore— Resolved, That the City Council will, with the concurrence of a majority of the legal voters of the City to be expressed in the mode prescribed bv iavv, subscribe £soo,<>oo to the capital stock of said Company, on the following terms, as a basis for future negotiations: Ist. The subscription not to be obligatory, un less the Savannah Valley Railroad Company shall within six months, obtain good and reliable cash subscriptions of sl,oo#,<loo, payable without quali fication or condition, except the condition of the whole sum being made up from parties other than the City Council of Augusta. 2nd. No discrimination shall ever be made against this point. In am-future arrangement of freights, whether local or through, Augusta shall participate fully in the advantage of the minimum rate, whether it be in the up or down charge for the transportation of passengers, produce or mer chandise. Srd. The principal business office and work shops of the Valley road to be in Augusta. 4th.

The connection between the Valley road and the Georgia railroad, shall be at some point west of Gumming street, and that of both of these roads, with the South Carolina railroad, shall be between the now eastern terminus of the Georgia railroad and the through Depot lot of the South Carolina railroad south of Walker street, and this latter connection shall be by horse power only. 6th. For the connection herein proposed, the railroads in interest, shall pay, or caused to be paid to the City Council of Augusta, such sum as the Council may deem a just equivalent for the same. 7. The City Council of Augusta to be secured one-third of the Directors of said Valley road, and that the Directors thus provided for and secured, shall be annually nominated by the City Council.

Try it, when : vou will be convinced that no preparation possesses I 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 j the flesh has wasted away, leaving nothing but I skin and bone, excites a healthy action, causing ! new flesh to grow out and till up the shrivelled j part. It restores the synovial fluid or joint water, I and this is the reason why it has been so success ! fol in diseases of the joints. In affections of the Spine, Liver, Lungs and Kidneys, this great reme dy stands before any other ever produced. For ague cake or enlargement of the spleen, it is a spe cilic. For any internal inflammation, you will find it gives great relief.
