Heavy Freshets and Loss of Life.
We are indebted to a friend for a private dis
patch irom Columbus, us follows:
Columbus, Dec. 31. —A heavy flood has material
ly injured some points on the railroad leading to
this city from Macon. It is reported tiiat a train
j fell in Randall's creek, and several lives were lost;
1 and that the train from Savannah, due this morn
-1 ing, had run off and two men were killed. Ran
, dall’s creek is about twelve or fifteen miles from
L Co! imbus.
Later from the Accident.
Columbus, Dec. 31—12 o'clock, noon. —The latest
news from the scene of the disaster is, that twelve
persons only escaped. There were forty killed
and drowned. The accident occured on the morn
ing train, which left this city for Macon.

Charleston Market.
Charleston, Dec. 31—1 o’clock I‘. M. — Cotton —
The market is quiet, and prices unchanged and
linn. Sales this forenoon 900 bales, at extremes
ranging from 11 to 11% cents.
J r if” “ Large and enthusiastic meetings,” in
favor of the Nicaragua emigration movement, are
reported by the Mississippi papers as having been
**eld iu Columbus, Aberdeen, Macon, &c., in that
te.
The population of .San Francisco is estimated at
seventy-five thousand or eighty thousand.
The total distance between St. Louis and San
Francisco, by the new overland route, is two thou
sand seven hundred and sixty-five miles.
Some of the western States are holding out
great inducements for the “ tide of emigration”

a law granting divorces to all parties who have

1 terns of news from the lialtimore Sun, of
Dec. 2Stli:
Mr. I'reston, our new minister to Spain, will
sail from Boston on the Gtli of January.
Death of an Edttov. —Clark Koontz, Esq., for
merly one of the editors of the Frederick (Md.)
Union, from which he retired a few months ago,
on account of ill health, died in that city on
Christmas day. The deceased was esteemed for
urbanity, amiable deportment, and moral char
acter.
Death of a Into U. S. Consul. —We learn that E.
Boston Buchanan, formerly U. S. consul at La
Kochelle, France, died on board the steamship
Ariel, during her recent protracted and stormy
passage from Havre to New York. The deceased
was a nephew of James M. Buchanan, Esq., of
Baltimore, our recent minister to Denmark.
Mrs. Cunningham. —A paragraph recently went
1 the round of the papers, stating that Mrs. Ci n.
siNGHAM-Bi itoKLL was living in style in New York;
that one of her daughters had married a southern
planter ; and the other was soon to enter the mat
vv/mial state, <fcc. This, according to the New
York correspondent of the Boston Journal, who
seems to know the truth, is all fiction. He hays:
She is not in easy “circumstances,” but is re
• ced and poor. All the ordinary avenues of em
ployment open to most women are closed against
ner. Her daughter, Augusta, has not been “mar
ried to a southern planter,” but to a poor young
man in this city, who has not ouc dollar to rely
upon but what he earns from day to day; and the
rumor about Helen is as apocryphal as the rest of
the story. _
| The Sixth Regiment. —The Sacramento Union,
laster describing the passage of the Sixth Regiment
Itlirongh that city, says :
1 Rut what has made their journey most interest
ing is the fact that it is the longest continuous
Inarch performed by the foot soldiers of a regular
■irmy of which there is any record in history. The
■iistance which this regiment has travelled, ou
Beaching Renicia, is just two thousand one hun
■red miles.
■ The Sixth Infantry is one of the most dis
tinguished regiments in the service. It was Col.
■afterwards General) Taylor’s regiment in Florida,
■ud with it he won his laurels in several hard
■Lught contests. In Mexico, the Sixth won sinii
far honors, suffering terribly ill the actions of
'iheruhusco and Mohno del Rev. It made some
famous marches in that country, passing from
General Taylor’s to General Scott's wing after the
battle of Ruena Vista. Some of its officers re
ceived wounds in Florida and Mexico. The Colonel
if the regiment is Rrevet General Clarke, Com
mander of the Department of California in the Fa
cade Division.

Terrific Explosion. —About 7 o'clock last even
ing, ibe boiler attached to the machinery of the
steam saw mill of Giles k Bradley, in the upper
part ol the city, exploded with a terrific noise. The
brick building in which it was situated was blown
to atoms, and the boiler itself thrown about one
hundred feet from its position. The damage is
estimated at between three and four thousand dol
lars, though the loss will be equal, if not greater,
irom the delay of their operations, the firm having
several very heavy contracts on hand at this time.
l.uckilv, all the hands were in the mill at the
time, and escaped with slight injuries to two ne
groes.—Savannah Republican, Dec. 21.

The “Wanderer” Case.
SIXTH DAY.
This case was continued yesterday morning be
fore Honorable United States Commissioner Henry.
On opening the court, Captain Luke Christie
was called to the stand, and remained there while
the Commissioner gave his decision on the point
raised on the previous day. The Honorable Com
missioner stated that he had given the subject due
consideration v and had examined all the statutes
applicable to the case, which he would proceed to
read, and let the witness decide for himself wheth
er his answer to the question proposed wonld
render him amenable to the law. His Honor then
read several sections of the various statutes on the
slave trade, among which was one providing for
tiie prosecution of coastwise vessels. On this he
remarked that lie interpreted the word “coastwise”
in its literal sense, and could not consider Captain
C. as coming under the operation of that section
by transporting negroes from the waters of the
Satilla to those of the Savannah, it being an inland
passage. He said, also, that he could not instruct
the witness that there was no law to implicate
him, as he did not know what he had done, or how
far lie might have rendered himself liable.
The United States District Attorney here rose
and said that when lie stated yesterday that in his
opinion Capt. Christie had {been guilty of no of
fence against the laws of the United States, it was
so far as his information extended, and lie had
asked the Court to instruct the witness that if be
iiad transported negroes from St. Andrew’s Bay
up the Savannah river, he bad committed no in
dictable offence. The District Attorney bad a!so
told the Court that he bad investigated the statutes
for the very purpose of bringing an indictment
against Capt. C., and of libeling the steamer La
mar. If lie had found anything at all tiiut, in his
opinion, would implicate the boat or her captain,
the Lamar would now have been iu the possession
of the Collector of the Fort, and Capt. Christie un
der bond before your Honor. The Distrtct Attor
ney is the public prosecutor, the representative of
the government, and as such his opinion should
have some weight with the Court, and some weight
everywhere. If your honor has any doubt on this
point, it would be well to wait till your mind is
clear. He would go so far as to say that if this
case is clogged by such decisions, the ends of jus
tice will be defeated, government disgraced, and
the law is a dead letter. He then proceeded to
give his rcasonswhy he did not consider the witness
liable in any manner. lie knew witness had
brought negroes from St. Andrew's Bay, or Jekyl
Sound, up the Savannah river, and asked the Court
to instruct him that if that was all he had dode,
no crime hud been committed.
The commissioner said he did not think the
transportation of slaves inland could be considered
an indictable offense.
Counsel for defense said he understood the
Court, in its previous remarks, to express a doubt.
The associate counsel for the prosecution again
objected. The counsel for the defense lias nothing
whatever to do with this case. Whenever counsel
rises to interfere, he would protest against it, and
asked the Court to make a note of it. Counsel
then went on to reiterate the position he had here
tofore taken, that this was a matter altogether be
tween the United States and the witness. The
defendants have nothing whutever to do with it,
and their counsel has no right to interfere.
Mr. Owens said the court is the party to whom
witness looks for protection. He was surprised
at what had been said by the prosecution, as he
had been before at many positions taken by them.
They contend they have a right to argue the
points raised, and after the court has made a de
cision, they can rise and discuss the propriety of
such a decision, and endeavor to influence the
mind of the court in the direction of a decision in
accordance with their views. When counsel for
the defense says anything about it, they tell him
he has no right to be beard. If counsel for the
government can be beard iu argument on any
point, the counsel for defense has a right to reply.
Mr. Owens admitted, in the fullest extent, the
right of the court to silence the counsel for de
leuse, but he must then also silence counsel for
prosecution. He reau a decision of an English
court, as reported by Wendell, where Lord A1 van
ley interposed and put a stop to a question which
was asked of a witness. This court lias made a
decision, and the witness knows whether or not
ho comes under any clause of the law. Your
Honor has read to the witness all the statutes hav
ing any hearing mi the case, and lias said to him,
“ If you come under the operation of any of these
clauses in answering this question, you may take
the protection the court affords ; if not, you must
answer.” Surely no government could require
anything more ; no prosecutiou, under this or any
other government, could ask more. The object of
this examination is to elicit the truth, and lie was
sure the prisoners at the bar are willing to stand
or fall by the truth. As to his own position, Mr.
Owens said, when the court was willing to hear
him he would be heard, and asked the court if,
when government argued a point, lie had not a
right to be heard in reply. It the court desired to
hear no argument, he was content to keep silent,
but if one side was heard, the other bad a right to
be heard also.
The associate counsel for the prosecution replied
that before the end of this examination the court
would see that the ends of justice were likely to
be defeated by the course it was taking, lie
argued at some length that defendants had no
right there, and cited the same authority used by
Mr. Owen, contending that it proved his position,
as in that case neither side interfered, but the
Judge himself would not allow witness to answer
a question which would criminate himself. He
went still further, and argued that when a ques
tion was asked a witness, the answer to which
might have a tendency to criminate him, it was
the duty of tiie court a’one to interpose. This
court has decided that the mere transportation of
negroes inland constitutes no offence, but govern
ment asks you to go further. The government
has a large interest in this matter, and it is for coun
sel for prosecution to push this case to the utter
most. The opposite counsel cannot show a single
decision, or rule of law, by which he can put us
down. The object of all those interruptions is to
create a doubt in theminds of witnesses and induce
them to withhold their evidence, thus taking the case
out of this Court and placing it in the hands of
parties who have an interest in defeating it. Coun
sel for defence says he wants the truth developed.
Would to God the whole truth could be brought
out. Ho was aware that to many witnesses on the
stand the law appeared like a confused mist before
their eyes, and from what quarter can this con
fusion so well come as from the counsel for defense?
This witness has so far committed no crime, but if
he withholds his testimony he will render himself
amenable to law. The government lias no per
sonal feeling in the matter; no disposition to per
secute or prosecute any witness. But if witnesses
come up and refuse to testify, they will per sect a
crime, and the government must then prosecute.
This is no threat, but a desire that the Court would
make the witness understand that he has commit
ted no crime in the simple transportation of the
negroes, but if he knows of any facts which will
throw light on this matter, and refuses to tell them,
he is guilty of misprision of felony, and liable to a
prosecution.
The Honorable Commissioner then said: “1
have read to you extracts from the law of the land.
If all you have done in this matter has been the
transportation of negroes from St. Andrew’s Bay
or Jekyl Sound up the Savannah river, no offense
has been committed. Whatever other acts you
may have done, that come within the purview of
the statutes, you alone can know ; I have read the
law to you, and you must now decide for yourself.”
The question was then repeated—“ Where did
you go with the steamboat Lamar from Bruns
wick?” Witness replied that he went opposite
Jekvl Island, to Jekyl Creek. Sawa lotof negroes
there, did not think they were American negroes.
Heart, there were about three hundred of them,
but did not attempt to count them. There were
some white men with them, who apparently had
them in charge, and helped to put them nn board.
Saw a vessel lying about three or four miles off.
Don’t know whether she was the Wanderer or not;
could only see her topmasts; could not see the
hull; it was a fore-and-att schoomer. This was
about December 2nd. There were six or eight
white men engaged in putting the negroes on
board; they were put on in the day-time. Car
ried them up the Savannah river about fourteen
miles, and lauded them on the Carolina side. Don’t
know the name of the place where they were land
ed, as I am not acquainted with the river above
Mr. Potter’s place. Several white men went up
with me—some of those who assisted in putting
! the negroes on board at Jekyl. Did not deliver
the negroes to any person. The white men point
ed out the place where they wished them landed,
and I ran along the shore and put them out. Four
of those who apparently had charge of the ne
groes went down with me from Savannah, and I
took one ou at Brunswick. Went to Jekyl in the
evening, and next morning went up to Brunswick
for wood. One negro was found dead on board
\ the boat on the morning we put them ashore.
| Q. What were the names of the white men who
i assisted in putting the negroes on board at Jekyl ?
I A. I don’t know the names of any of them.
I Q. Stale the names of any you' know who were
AUGUSTA, GA, SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 1, 1859.
present and saw it done ? A. Mr. Trowbridge was
one, Capt. John F. Tucder another. Mr. Henry
Dußignon was also present, and Mr. C. A. L. La
mar.
Q. What are Ihe names of these you carried from
Savannah to Jekyl? A. Messrs. Lamar, Tucker,
Trowbridge, and one more, whose name I don’t
know. Mr. Brown, one of the prisoners at the bar,
was here pointed out, and recognised by witness
as the fourth man. He could not recognise the
other prisoner, or remember having seen him
about there. Witness thought he would be able
to recognise any parties who assisted in putting
the negroes on board. The District Attorney then
called successively on Messrs. Harris, Jas. Club,
Buffington, and Elias Club, to stand up. Witness
failed to recognise either of them as having been
present at that time. Those who put the negroes
on boa:d looked like foreigners.
In answer to the question, how he came to go
after the negroes, witness stated tiiat between eight
and nine o’clock one evening, Capt. Stevenson,
the owner of the boat, came to his house, and told
him he had hired the boat out to go South, with
out him ; that the parties hiring the boat would
furnish their own captain, and had employed Capt.
Dickerson. Witness went down to the boat to see
that everything was right, aud that the boys were
all on hand. When the time for starting came
round, Capt. Dickerson was not to he found, aud
witness was obliged either to go himself or let his
boat go off without any competent man on boat'd,
so he took command, and started off. Took Capt.
Thos. Bourkeon board at Brunswick. Mr. Trow
bridge stopped at Jekyl; and the other white men
were left up the river where the negroes were
landed, except Mr. Lamar, who was put ashore
about eight miles up the river, at a place the name
of which witness could not remember. Don’t
know the name of any of the men who landed with
the negroes, except Capt. Tucker. Did not see
any other steamer at or near Jekyl while the La
mar was there. Don’t know of any other negroes
having been taken from thereabouts except those 1
took. Don’t know of any negroes having been
sent up the Satilla.
John Cuss, sworn. —Had seen the prisoners, be
fore. He recognised one without difficulty; the
other he did not recognise so readily. The prison
er, Brown, was one recognised. Is not apt to
know persons readily, alter recent acquaintance.
The prisoner stopped at witness’ hotel (Mr. Cass
is proprietor of the Cit y Hotel, in Savannah). Has
no recollection of having ever seen the prisoner,
who was absent from the court room.
Here the counsel for prosecution remarked that
it was important that the other prisoner, who was
absent from the court room in consequence c ' ick
ness, should be present; otherwise many wi ess
es must be re-examined, and much time lost. In
consideration of these facts, they moved a continu
ance of the case until the following morning, at 11
o’clock.
The counsel for defense considered it a reasona
ble motion, and had no objection.
The District Attorney requested ilie United
States Marshal to inform such of the witnesses as
reside in Savannah that they were discharged,
subject to the call of the court. In the meantime
they would not be entitled to per diem, his object
being to save expense to the government.
His Honor, the Commissioner, stated to the wit
ness, James Clubb, who had been imprisoned yes
terday, for contempt of court, tiiat m considera
tion of an affidavit which he hud made, and of the
fact that his offense was the result of ignorance,
the court would discharge him from further im
prisonment.
The court was then declared adjourned until
this morning, at eleven o’clock.
Interesting from Zanzibar.

Kew York Evening Post, Dec. 28.
Stabuikh Affair. —A fight occurred this morning
about one o’clock, between one Win. Harvey, a
sailor, and an Elliott street runner. Patrick Tra
cey, a policeman, in trying to arrest the parties,
was severely stabbed by the former about the
breast and hack Harvey was arrested by the
assistance of another policeman, who came to Tra
cey’s relief, and lodged in the guard house. He
was this morning turned over to a magistrate for
prosecution. We learn that Tracey lies in rather
a critical condition.
Charleston Evening Aries, Dec. 20.
Fiue.—The alarm of (Ire was given on Wednes
day morning a few minutes before two o’clock,
when it was found that the stables belonging to
the estate of Alex. Keenan, deceased, were on fire;
and we regret to state that the fire had made such
progress at the time of the alarm, that it was im
possible to save the animals. Seven mules and
three horses were destroyed.
The tire communicated with a cotton house ad
joining, and about seventy bales were burned.
The cotton was insured. The origin of the fire is
attributed to the carelessness of the ostlers or
boys who attended to the stables.
Our firemen, the Independent and Palmetto
companies, were promptly on the ground, and
woi ked efficiently to stay the progress of the lire.
Columbia Ihtardian, Dec. 30.
The South Carolinian of the same date, says ;
Y esterday morning, about half-past 1 o’clock, a
fire occured in Cotton Town, which consumed the
cotton shed of Mr. R. Anderson. Out of one hun
dred and thirty-seven cotton bales, seventy-five
were burnt. There were also destroyed ten horses
and mules. The cotton belonged to the estate of
R. Sondley, and was insured.
Naval Depot in North Carolina.—Command

From Correspondence of Savannah Republican.
Coi.cMura, Dec. 29, 1858.
Mr. Editor: I have but little to say about Cotton this
week. There is no demand, and none pressing on the market
—in fact, nothing doing. I think if lots were messed on the
market for sale, that lower prices would have to lie submitted
to it mm- be that lam wrong in this, and that the true cause
of tiie Inactivity lies in the fact that wSArc having -‘lots of
full” here now, and spe.nl,tors feeling assured of protit
enough on their accumulated hundreds and thousands of
bales, are amusing themselves cither at the Circus or “The
Buckleys ” The circus is a “good tiling in tho country,"—
a great institution—and always well patronised here.
“The Buckleys” are said by connoisseurs to be some. I un
derstand they arc well patronised by upper-ten dom.
We are having a great deal of rain now. It looks like we
are to have a year’s allowance at one time. The river has been
high, but is falling. It promises to . beatable for the balance
of Hie season. ,
Receipts of Cotton past week were greater tuan 1 expected.
They amounted to 4,400 bale*, making a tidal of 9?,000 bales.
Wc expect to receive from 25,000 to 30,000 bales more. Stock
on hand about 38,000 bales. Yours truly, O. P.Q.

ardent spirits, or other forms of dissipation. Generally in
