Price of Negroes in Georgia.—A friend j just from the up-country, informs us that at a ' sale of negroes that took place in NVarrenton. Tuesday hist, young and likely negro men I brought from $ 1200 tojs 15<K). Thesale was made | on a credit of twelve months, and the pur- j chases made by parties not interested in the > property. The Augusta Chronicle of yesterday says, at ‘ Sparta on Tuesday last, forty-one negroes, be- | longing to the estate of Thomas L. NVynn, late i of Hancock county, w ere sold, averaging sH4<i , each, including old negroes, children and in fants. One hoy, twenty-twoyears old. a com mon field hand, sold for SISOO. The sales were on cash terms. In NVilkes county, on the same day, lands brought much higher prices than any one sup posed they could command at the present time. Sar. lbpoldican. Ex-Peesii»ent Pierce in Norfolk.—Ex- | President Pierce left Baltimcre Monday after- ; noon, on the steamer for Norfolk, lie was a<*companicd to the boat by the Baltimore City Guards, of which company he had been elected a life mvinlH*r during his stay there. A tele graphic dispatch from Norfolk announces his arrival there Tuesday morning. He and his wife w ill be the guests of S. T. Sawyer, Es<j., Collector of the port, until the sailing of the I . S. steamer Powhatan, which w ill take place in about a week. He g<»cs to Afaderia. where he will be the guest of the U. S. Consul to that Island, and where he hopes his wife’s fail ing health will be rest ore* 1. United States Treasi i:y Estimates. —It is stated that the treasury estimate of appropria tions for the next fiscal year have been made . up, and despite every effort to reduce them, the total amount estimated is about seventy millions. The estimate for the NVar Depart ment alone is twenty and a quarter millions— being largely increase*! bo the anticipated Mor mon w ar. The total Nav.il estimates, includ ing the special service and the construction of the new steam Hoops of war, amounts to four teen millions. Oi’ERATIons of the U. S.

De* line in H*m;s at Cincinnati.—As we stated a w eek ago, says the Louisville Journal of Saturday last, now, that a goo* 1 many hogs arc started tow ard Cin* innati expecting to re alize the late quotations in that place ($5 60 to $5 no,) prices have gone down. Private dis patche* from Cincinnati quote the market dull at $5 to $5 25. Western Emhjkation.—The Sumter (Ala.) I Democrat says that the annual tide of emigra tion to the NVcst has fairly set in. Hardly a day pa* es that we do not see perfect caravans of wagons, men, women ami children, and fre quently considerable numbers of negr<K*s, go ing through our streets on their way to seek new homes. Some go to Texas, others to ‘ Louisiana, and others still to Arkansas, while 1 some of them stop in our neighboring State ! Mississippi.

Virginia, isone of earth’s favored localities. The “hunger I mobs" should emigrate to that place immvdiate l ly. The Tazewell Advocate says that corn is sold at 2'l cents per bushel, for fattening hogs. | • A correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch writes: “Living is cheap enough—only think ' of eggs at 6 pence per dozen, chickens at six pence each. ba<*on 10 cents per pound, corn 25 cent* per bushel, and wood only $1 |kt cord, delivered at your door.” Paying Specie.—The following banks in South Carolina continue to pay specie: Union Bunk of Charleston, State Bank of South Car olina, Bank of Charleston, Commercial Bank of Columbia.

Shipments of Treasure from California. —The shipments of treasure from San Fran- I cisco by steamers for the muuth of October, 1857, compared with those of a corresponding jieriod of last year, shows n falling oft' of 474, 707 dolhus. and for the ten months of this year the decrease is $4,544,792. Fcgitivk Slave Excitement.—. Veto JorZ-, Dtr. 2.—There is considerable excitement in Brooklyn, respecting an attempt to capture a runaway slave for the purpose of returning him to Savannah. A writ of habeas corpus was issued, returnable to-day; but, in the mean time the negro was spirited away on the un derground railroad. I’xiTEi, States Sexatob Elected. —Ex-Gov- ernor Hammond has been elected to the Uni ted States Semite by the legislature of South Carolina, to till the vacancy occasioned by the death of Senator Mufler. Delaware Uxitko States Senator. —It is . rumored that Senator Bates, of Delaware, will resign, ami that Mr. Comegyns, the former in cumbent. will be appointed by the Governor. The legislature is elected in that State every two years. According to present indications lion. Mr. I.amar. of Texas, will be appointeil minis- ' ter to Nicaragua. THE SLAVE TRADE. The Columbia CaroJinian publishes the fol lowing as the resolutions reported to the Sen- ! ate of South Carolina, by Mr. Mazyek, from the special committee to whom was referred that part of Gov. Adams’ Message which re lates to the slave-trade : Ilewlml. That the chief and almost entire - productive industry of the slaveholding States, ' is agriculture, to their successful prosecution of i which the lalmr of negro slaves is indispensa- I bly necessary. Itmolrril, That there is a great and growing I deficiency of agricultural labor in the said i States, w hich the natural increase of the slave I population is inadequate to supply. Jiemlted, That the effect of prohibiting the importation of slaves from abroad is to limit the expansion of the productive industry of the said States, and of the population which that industry sustains to the ratio of the natural in crease of the slave population. Itixulrul. That the importation of slaves from I abroad would accelerate the development of the agricultural resources of the slaveholding : States, and promote their progress in wealth, population, and general improvement, and that ; such importation, carried on under proper reg ulations, would not be inconsistent with the principles of justice and humanity. Ilttolreil, That the effect of an entire sup pression of the African slave trade, would be to contine the negriKs to their own country, | ami preclude them from such means of relict from the pressure of a redundant |>opiilatiou. as might l>e afforded by emigration in the only form in which its benefits can be extended to I them. Hetvlred, That the Act of Congress declaring I the African slave trade to be piracy, it it lie ' understood ns affirming that it is piracy in the nature of things and in the sense of the Consti- I tution. affirms what is untrue; mid inasmuch as it purports mid intends to convert into pirn- | cy what is not so in the nature of things mid in I the sense of the Constitution, the said act is tin- I C'-nstitutional. null and void. AMOUNT Os SPECIE IN THE COUNTRY. It becomes important at the present time to ’ ascertain how much specie there is in the conn- ■ try ; in other words, the amount of that cur rency which cannot be depreciated or in any ! way disturbed by any explosions. The specie ■ basis of the banks is stated tube about sixty' millions, mid the inquiry turns to the amount in genera! circulation among the people. On this point the Philadelphia North American says: j We have taken the pains, for our own sat- J isfaction, to look over the official figures for a i series of years, in order to approximate a .safe ' opinion upon this subject, and they develop ’ some results of striking interest at the present juncture, which ought to inspire feelings of en couragement eveu in the most desponding.— Notwithstanding the enormous depletion of precious metals during the hist seven years, it will be seen that the coinage in that period ex ceeded the exports by mi amount almost equal to the whole coinage during the prcceeding fif ty-eight years: Coinage.
