Georgia Penitentiary.
The Milledgeville Recorder of the 14th, says;
’‘There are at present we learn, in this insti
tution, tiro hundred and thirteen convicts—
forty of them having been committed to it
within the present year. This is a larger
number than has ever been in it at one time
before. The increase of crime, it would seem,
lias inspired the several Courts with a deter
mination to try the certainty of punishment,
rather than clemency, to bring about a sound
state of morals.”
Miss Charlotte Thompson.—We are pleas
ed to hear (says the Savannah Republican) of
the flattering reception and great success of
our young friend, in Her Majesty’s American
dominions. We take the following very com
plimentary notice from the Toronto (Canada)
Colonist, of the 31st ult:
“ Saturday evening, Miss Charlotte Thomp
son took her farewell benefit, and notwith
standing that the rain was pouring down in
torrents, she was greeted by a crowded and
fashionable audience, who fully appreciated
her powers and particularly her incomparable
rendition of Lady Gay Spanker, which was a
perfect gem of art. Os course the evening
passed off delightfully, and as usual the lady
was greeted throughout with the most gratify
ing marks of the just appreciation in which
her great abilities are held. This talented
young lady is just finishing the fourth week of
her brilliant engagement in Toronto, and her
absence will cause a void in our theatrical cir
cle which will be sensibly felt and which noth
ing will supply save her speedy return. Miss
Thompson, both as an artist aud as a lady,
is well worthy the sensi.tion she has cre
ated.”
A Magnificent Car.
The Machine Shop of the South Western
Rail Road, at Macon, has recently turned out
the most superb passenger car in the United
States. It made its first trip as far as Fort
Valley, on Saturday, the 29th ult., and we had
the pleasure, with a number of others, of in
specting and admiring it. As a specimen of
superior and tasteful architecture, it reflects
credit to the South and honor to its builder,
Mr. F. 11. Alley, Master Carpenter of theSouth
Western Rail Road Company.
The interior is a palace in miniature, the walls
and entire pannelling is of black walnut, which,
and every other material in the carpenter’s de
partment, grew in Bibb, within a few miles of
Macon. The car is furnished with a late
and improved style of pews, invite you
half way to dreamland to look at. No yan- '
kee baby-jumper could ride easier. It seems
that this Company are determined to spare ,
neither pains nor money in offering superior
facilities to the traveler. One thing is certain,
no road North or South can boast of a clever
er and more accommodating cabinet of officers.
This being the case it is useless to state that
the Road is extensively patronized, being about
the most popular road in the State. The above '
mentioned car cost no less than $3,200. It 1
was visited by many while standing at our De
pot, and was universally admired by all.

Kossuth on the War.
Kossuth has addressed another large meet- i
ing at J/anchester, England, lie counselled
England to a strict neutrality in the present ;
contest—not, however, from any regard to the
interests of England, but in the conviction
that the sympathies of the British rulers are •
with Austria. He distinctly charge; them on
this score, maintaining that they have never 1
expressed a word of friendliness or anxiety in
regard to the fate of Italy, while they had 1
manifested the profoundest solicitude for Aus
tria.
He hopes to see the ferments and agitation
of Italy extended to his native country : the
House of Austria is to him the dragon of his
tory, foetid and red with crime, against which
he has thundered for years, and he is averse to
seeing it strengthened, even by a moral appro
val. In this view the burden of his adjuration
to England is, "If you cannot help Italy, for
heaven’s sake do not help Austria, the oppres
sor of Italy. Do not allow your prejudices
against France and the ruler of France to
place you on the side of tyranny and wrong.’
Kossuth draws an ingenious distinction be
tween the French and the Austrian govern
ments; for in France the despotism is person
al and temporary, while the nation is essen
tially free, radiating the light of science and
art to all the world; but in Austria the des
potism is absolute, part and parcel of the na
tional life, depressing and 'flighting whatever
comes within its influences. If the taskmast
ers go to war, says Kossuth, let them tear each
other to pieces if they please, lie adds, at
the same time, that he knows nothing of the
intentions of Louis Napoleon, although he be
lieves that his interests were all on the side of
the independence of the nations.
Glass.—The flint glass manufactories (says
the Philadelphia Bulletin) will grumble at the
European war, for it will raise the price qf
saltpetre very-materially. Saltpetre is the in
gredient which adds the glitter and sparkle to
flint glass : the more you use, the more bril
liant the glass. It is more expensive than
any other material, and yet to a superintend
ent who wishes to turn out a good article, the
temptation to use a large propotion is great.—
Lead adds "body” and strength to glass; most
;f it comes from Galena, Illinois, though some
Spanish lead is used ; but the Spanish lead
lias too much silver in it, and is too hard to be
popular among glassmakers. Recently, 1 ir
ginia lead has also been quoted. The other
ingredients of glass are manganese (too much
of which will make the “metal” green,) pearl
ash (or soda-ash, which is sometimes used,)
and arsenic. The ingredients of green glass
are much less expensive. Speaking of saltpe
tre. the market reports quote the stock as small,
and rising 8J cents.
Seven Ur.—This “noble game,” says the
Louisville Courier, has lately been brought in
to public notice by a matched game, the pre
liminaries of which have just been arranged,
to be played by telegraph, between John I).
McGoodwin, of Paducah, and Len. Faxon, of
I Cairo. The regular stakes are 25 cents in
I money, n bottle ot Bond’s whisky, and the
championship of Jackson s Purchase : a bar
low knife forfeit. Charley Smedley has been
designated as bottle holder, and Col. J. C. No
ble as stake holder for the Paducah champion
I while Messrs. Phillips and Jennings will per-
I form the same offices for the cliainpion of
.■southern Illinois. The excitement is intense
and on the increase. Bets are ranging at abont
three yellow dogs to two Cairo lots on the
’ Padoeah player. We shall keep our readers

FROM OUR DAILY OF FRIDAY, JUNE 17.
The Celebration.
The glorious memories of “the days of ’7G”
are revived in onr city to-day by the celebra
tion of the anniversary of the battle of Bunker
Hill by our Military Companies. The Macon Vol
unteers and Bibb County Cavalry para led this
morning, and we understand the Floyd Riflemen
will turn out this afternoon. It is right that the
day on which was fought the first great battle
of the Revolution should be thus commemo
rated.
Where is He?
Can anybody tell where the Journal it Mes
senyer stands in politics ? Our neighbor bents
McCullom in turning somersets. Like the
Frenchman’s flea, when you think you’ve got
him, he aint there. Last week we thought ne
was in good train for becoming a Democrat;
ut this week he proposes to organize a State
Rights Constitutional Reform party; nt the
same time refusing to participate in the Oppo
sition meeting to-morrow. Fortunately, how
ever, it is not of much importance where our
neighbor stands, whether upon bis heels or his
head—about as good a use as some heads can
be put to.
That Extra Train.
The Savannah Republican of to-day in com
menting upon a paragraph in this paper com
plaining of the want ot an extra train from
Gordon to Milledgeville to accommodate the
Delegates and others who wished to attend the
Democratic State Convention, remarks in jus
tification of the President and Superintendent
of the Central Railroad that the former was
absent from his post, and no application was
made to the latter for such extra train. We
are not disposed to do either of the gentlemen
injustice, but wc should suppose that a regard
for the interests of the Road and an accommo
dating spirit to the public would have prompt
ed them to provide the train without being
applied to. However, it don’t matter now.—
The Convention has met and accomplished all
we wanted, without the presence of the “many
gentlemen” from Macon aud the disappointed
Delegates. The Central Road is the only loser
by its neglect.
Opposition Meeting.
The mongrel Opposition party, we learn from
a call in the Georgia Citizen, will hold a meet
ing at the Court House, at 11 o’clock to-mor
row morning, to appoint Delegates to repre
sent the county of Bibb in the Congressional
aud Gubernatorial Conventions shortly to con
vene. Wonder if they will be foolish enough
to run a candidate against Gov. Brown ?
They might as well butt against the Stone
Mountain.
The Nashville Excursion.
Mr. W. S. Brantley, of this city, has fa
vored us with a dispatch from Superintendent
George W. Adams, stating that the Excursion
train with the Chatham Artillery will reach
Macon next Sunday morning at 7.15 o’clock,
to remn’n here all day. The dispatch is dated
“Nashville, June 17.
We find the following in our Savannah Ex
changes of to-day:
Nashville, June 15.—The train with the
Chatham Artillery and other excursionists, ar
rived at 9 o’clock this morning. They were
met at the depot and escorted through the city
by an immense military aud civic procession.
Accident to Mrs. W. J. Florence.
The numerous admirers of this accomplish
ed and estimable lady will regret to learn that
she accidentally shot herself in the thigh one
evening last week during a performance at the
Howard Atheneum in Boston. We are happy
to learn that the wound though extremely
painful is not considered serious.
The Proposed Fair.
It will b?seen, by reference to the proceed
ing of our City Council, published in another
column of to-day’s paper, that the Committee
to whom was referred the communication of
the Hon. Howell Cobb, of Houston, iu rel '.tion
to the proposed Fair of the Direct Trade Asso
ciation for the exhibition of Foreign goods, re
port in favor of furnishing suitable grounds and
buildings, and the appointment of Committees
&c., to co-operate with Mr. Cobb and others
in making suitible arrangements for the pr< -
posed Fair. The Committee express the opin
ion, that if the enterprise of establishing such
a Fair is begun, our citizens will respond
liberally to all calls made upon them for its
support. An annual Fair of this kind held in i
our city will evidently boos great advantage I
to us, and we here appeal to our citizens to ;
lend a helping band to Mr. Cobb and his asso- .
dates in their laudable efforts to foster and es
tablish direct communication with Europe, and
thus relieve the South of the onerous, burthens .
and heavy taxes imposed by our Northern
brethren. Wc have been too long dependent >
upon the North —it is now full time to assert ■
our independence of her capitalists. There is ,
no reason why the South should be doubly I
tax 'd by paying tribute to Northern merchants
in addition to the duties levied by the gene
ral government. This movement of the Direct ,
Trade Association should meet with prompt |
and energetic c-operation thoughout the South
ern States. _
As it Should be!
A question is now being agitated requiring ,
a long term of naturalization in the case ot
Northern settlers in Southern States. The
New Orleans Cresent thus argues in favor of it, i
to all of which we say amen :
‘•We do not know why men, hostile to the very
heart by nature, should be allowed to come among us
and weildto our injury as much influence as wc can
to protect ourselves; and, therefore, we think that
all Northerners should be made to serve a very
lengthy naturalization term before they areallowcdto
vote in a Southern State. This would givetliein time
to be cured of the hot prejudice which many, even
of the conscientious, bring with them, and woald
clip the claws of the designing. Twenty-one years
would not be too long a term to serve for the right of
I voting on questions in which the salvation of our vi
’ tai interests is concerned.

A Word of Caution.
Before the canvass is fairly opened, and
whilst there is vet time for a word of caution,
to be heard and heeded, wedesireto call the at
tention of our Democratic readers, to some in
dications, which are not favorable to the suc
: cess of the party in the impending elections in
this State.
We do not refer to the evidences which have
been multiplied around us in the last few
months, of differences of opinion, in the party,
; upon different questions of national politics,
i which have been agitated with reference to the
j course of the Administration upon them. If
as we trust, moderate counsels prevailed in the
i Democratic State Convention, which assem
' bled at Milledgeville, on yesterday, these dif
ferences upon questions of national policy have !
' bean rendered harmless by the adoption of a I
platform which establishes no new article ofj
Democratic faith, and recognises no new test ;
of Democratic orthojjyxy, we anticipate no di- j
vision in the party upon any important ques- J
tion either of national or State policy (the par- ,
ty, we assume, will cordially unite upon the |
platform adopted by the Convention :) but
there ar? causes which, without such a division,
may imperil its success.
One of these causes ot the p sible defeat of
the Democracy in the impending elections, is
the very general impression among Democrats,
that there can be no formidable opposition ar- j
rayed against them, and that they will be per
mitted to carry the State and gather the fruits
of victory without an effort. In this impres
sion they are very much mistaken, as they
will discover before a month hns elapsed.—
The next general election in this State will be
one of the most important which has ever oc
curred in Georgia. The party successful in
that election, will secure the control of the
Executive and Legislative departments of the
State Government, for the next two years, the
choice of a United States Senator, and of two
Judges of the Supreme Court, the representa
tion of the State in the House of Representa
tives of the next Congress, and its vote in the
next Electoral College. An election upon
which, so many important results depend, will
be hotly contested. Aud even if the issue of
the election, regarded with a view to its re
sults, was not a matter of interest and impor
tance, it would still be contested by the oppo
sition with unusual obstinacy and spirit. That
opposition will be the American party in a
new disguise—the Know Nothing party with
another alias, adopted to screen it and secure
the co-oporation ot all the voters of Georgia,
who are opposed to the Democratic party or
to the State or National Administration ; and
it will enter the canvass with something of
the confidence and spirit of a new organization,
and with the conviction that its existence is
dependent upon the result of the elections. —
It is a very great mistake therefore for Demo
crats to suppose that the elections in October
will not be vigorously contested. The exis
tence of the opposition is involved in the re
sult.
We do not believe that any extraordinary
effort will be necessary, to secure a Democrat
ic victory in the approaching election, but we
arc anxious to correct the impression that
there will be no serious opposition to the Dem
ocratic party in those elections; because it in
dicates, on the part of those Democrats who
entertain it, a confidence in the strength of
their party, and a contempt for the opposition,
which may result in something more serious than
indifference. The party which is so confident
of its oin strength, that it despises tiie oppo
sition arrayed against it, will be indifferent,
and it is in danger of being thoroughly disor
ganised. This fact is illustrated in the r •cent
elections in Virginia. The Democracy, confi
dent of their strength made no effort in that
contest to secure a thorough organization of
the party. The consequence was that it was
disorganized by “free tights” among Demo
crats in counties and Congressional districts,
and almost overwhelmed by an opposition
which it despised.
Let the Democracy of Georgia be instructed
by the result of the Virginia Election, and by
a strict party organization in every county
and district in the State, protect themselves
against the consequences of an overweening
confidence in their strength,— -luyiista Con
xtitulioii'dist.

RICHARD CURD, c. c.
Elopement.
We are reliably informed that a Mrs. Hol
royd, wife of Mr. William Holroyd, a well
known and worthy engineer on the Georgia
Railroad, eloped from Atlanta last Monday
with a Mr. Tomlinson, a salesman in the dry
goods store of Mr. Meyers, taking $3,000 in
cash, being the earnings of Mr. Holroyd, saved
by years of industry and economy.
Mr. Holroyd reached Atlanta on Monday
night at 12 o’clock, and found that his wife
was missing. He afterwards learned that she
left nt six o’clock in the evening, and walked
to East Point—six miles —where she took the
curs for Columbus via Opelikn. Thence she
proceeded to Macon, and left her baggage in
charge of an rcquaintance. and proceeded on
to Augusta, where, on last Tuesday, Tomlin
son met herand they proceeded to Blanch ville.
since which fhey hqve not been heard from.
Tomlinson is a tine looking middle aged
man, weighing about two hundred pounds.—
Mrs. Holroyd is a full faced and cortiely wo
man, twenty seven years old. She is the sec
ond wife of Mr. Holroyd. to whom he has
been married several years, and he has never
suspected her fidelity, and they have, we learn,
lived uappily together.
They, as well as Mr. Tomlinson are English
people, and the guilty pair will probably at
tempt to return to England. The police of all
the ports are on the lookout, and though it
will be seen that if they manage .adroitly, there
is but a slim chance for them to get oft’. Mr.
Holroyd has always confided his earnings to
his wife, and the perfidious dame has left him
almost penniless. Her conduct is especially
distressing to the daughters of Mr. 11. by a
former wife, who are just entering upon wo
manhood, and are interesting and reputable
young ladies. They are deserving especial
sympathy, and should not be suffered to share
the reproach attending the infanio-s conduct
of a misguided step mother. We trust that it
Tomlinson is caught, Mr. 11. will make an ex
ample of him. Society is too t lerant of the
miscreants who prey upon its most sacred reg
ulations : and the licentious tendencies of the
times call for summary vengeance upon the
heads of those who glory in the shame of se
duction and adultery.— Ex.
Washington, June 10, 1859,
Lord Lyons has addressed a note to the Sec
retary of State in reference to the slave trade
portion of the Ashburton treaty. The treaty
provides that each government shall maintain
not less than eighty guns on the const of Afri
ca. His lordship does not exactly approve ot
the manner in which the arrangement on our
part is carried out, and he takes occasion to
animadvert with *oi(**_leeling upon the con
duct of Flag Officer Conover, against whom
some complaint has been made by the officer
in command of the British squadron on that
station. Or.r government will probably treat
this matter as it deserves. It is well known
that England has failed to carry out on her
part the eighth article of the treaty.
Voluminous despatches were received this
morning at the State Department, brought by
the Africa from our Ministers in London, Paris. ,
Turin and Naples. Mr. Dallas refers to the
Maritime Neutral rights question, and states
that it excites unusual interest among com
mercial classes, and that England, before she
I commits herself upon the subject, desires to
I know the exact position which the I nited
: States intends to resume. He mentions a
mong other matters the report, which was
current both in England and I-rance, that new
and strenuous efforts were being made to al
- existing difficulties, and put an end to hos
tilities.
James A. Peden, late Minister to the Ar
gentine Confederation, lias just arrived here.
He brings important dispatches to our govern
! meat, the purport of which has not yet been
made public. He confirms the report that
I'rqniza w as preparing for the invasion of Bu
enos Ayres, and tl.at much apprehension was
i manifested by the people. It was generally
believed that Lopez was aiding him in his op-
I orations.
