Much is being said and written, just now, about tbe “ Independent movement.” The adherents thereof :nv full of excuses for their departure. (it being a new political feature.) while the opponents of the measure see therein the worst of political evils. We are cited to Gordon, Toombs^ and others, who it is claimed, cham pion or are in lympathy with the Independent movement in Georgia. So lar as the first named gentleman is concerned we do not believe he has ever expressed himself in sympa thy with that movement. In regard to the latter, while he has an intel lect inferior tc none on the continent, it is sometimes misdirected, as wit ness his speech in Milledgevidc before the war in which lie said he would “drink all the blood that would be spilled in a war between the States.’’ We ask if Im was not grievously mis taken, then, and may he not be mis taken in his policy now ? We submit th • fact that all Un political misery inflicted upon the Stale of Georgia alter the war was in consequence of a division of sent intent in the State. A few said, “let us unite and meet the enemy.” The many said, “let him severely alone— be will die of his own corruption.” What was the result of this non action, this want of unity ? One • liberty after another was wrested from us, our Treasury fell into the bands cf thieves, and the last vestige of freedom see ned ready to escape cur grasp. What did the people do ?

The effect of these victories has been to attract the tlcutiou neutral powers, and now England is medilaiing upon the question ns tn whether the original object of a Rus sian declaration of war was for the benefit of the Christians within the —Russian women go out: «loo’s with their children, but ‘seldom will, their husbands; and a man is not expetled to take notice of allot her man’s wife by bowing to her when passing in the street. — Juries in fldmvs murder trials decide whether 1 he fdfiWMed prison ers shall be imprisoucSt t**r file or hanged. In Sha’.nieelown a jury stood three for hanging and nine for imprisonment. They palled straws to ,-etile tlm que-tion, and on a verdict thus obtained a man was sentenced to death ; but when the facts came out a new trial was granted. —The expression, “so-long,” used sometimes in the sense of good-by in the Southern S.ates, was borrowed from negroes. It is a corruption ol the Turkish wool “salaant,” which, with the spread of Mahommedanism, traveled to the west coast of Africa, whence s ave cargoes were procured. The expression became also common in Glassgtiw and Bristol, during the last century, whither it was carried by sailors ot sla\ e ships. —A change has come over tin- spirit tit Henry \Va*d Beecher’s dream.

The following are tbe latest English Press telegrams with reference to the attitude of that power towards Russo-Turkish affairs: London, December 30.—The Nero Times of St. Petersburg reproduces vir ons reports current in ibieigu Newspapers that England intends to occupy certain points in the Ea-t, among others Gallipolis, C tuxiatino- pie and Batoum. The Nero Times considers that the occupancy of Con- st/.ntinople or Batoum will be equiv alent to a declaration of war. The semi-official Agence Russe says: “The report tiiat England has notified the Powers of her intention to occupy certain stations m the East is to pay the soldiers who were called out to quell the la bur riots last July is ueary §310,000, provided the Legislature decides to allow full pay tor the fractional mo. th over fifteen days.
