The Committee returned in a few minutes,
tnd reported the following preamble and re
el utions :
Whil" Railroads arc intersecting our highly
'avored State in every direction, connecting by
inks of gold her moat remote sections, break-
ug down the middle wall of prejudice that
titherto divided and separated our people, and
•pening new and large markets to the produc-
iona of her soil and climate. While iu almost
tverv County Town within our State, large
neetings of enterprising citizens arc beiug
ield, and projects devised for ritldiug thetn-
telves of tiie enormous tax and burden nt’end-
int upon small and restricted markets. While
'very where all around us, even at our very
loors, the effort is beiug made to place South-
vestem Georgia upon tbe highway of commu-
■ication with the world. We, the citizens of
lecatur county, arc unwilling longer to stand
idle spectators upon the great work of Rail-
oad iinproveme it, which with slow but steady
race is approaching our borders. We are in
he point of Railroad attraction. We are at
he head of navigation on the Flint river ; we
tre in 4 J hours of easy run of New Orleans by
’team,' at all times and through all seasons.—
With a road ruuning to Savannah, will here
effect at once a connection with the Gulf—
the great end and purpose of her present Rail
road euterprize. Nature herself points to
ilainbridge as being in line of connexion be
tween the Atlantic aud the Gulf. A mere
economy in the Baving of distance and money,
nust form here on this spot, a link in that
proat chain of connection. Such an economy
is slowly moving and guiding the South-western
Railroad in this direction.
With all the natural advantages of location
!o encourage us, with an interest inviting to
outerprize and capital to stimulate us, we offer
the following Resolutions:
1st, Resolved, That the Chair appoint a
Committee of uiue, to correspond with the
President of the South-western Railroad on the
subiect of the extension of that road to Bain-
bridge.
gud. Resolved, That as tlic sense of this
netting that is due South-western Georgia aud
promotion of her interest generally, that the
State should subscribe or loan her credit for
the sum of one million of dollars, or other
large sum of the stoek in the South-western
Railroad, that may be necessary to extend the
same to this place.
3d. Resolveti, That the Secretary of this
meeting send copies of its proceedings to our
Senator and Representative in the Legislature,
as also to the Senators and Representatives of
counties interested, with a request that u*c
their utmost exertion to advauce the sense of
this meeting as expressed in the foregoing pre
amble and resolutions.
4th. Resolved, That the Committee of cor
respondence act also as au Executive Commit
tee with discretion to call a meeting of the cit
izens of the county, whenever the interest ot
the euterprize shall require.
On motion of John YV. Evans, the preamble
and resolutions were unanimously adopted.
Under tiie first resolution the Chair appoint
ed the following committee:—Joseph Larr,
Esq., A. Y\ r . Cunningham, Esq., Daniel K&m-
bo, William Williams, Dr. John L. Crawford,
U. J. Smallwood, Duncan Curry, John M.
Potter, and John W. Evans.
On .motion of Dr. M. H. Martin, the Chair
man was added to the Committee.
On motion of Janies Griffin,
Resolved, That a copy of these proceedings
be forwarded to papers in Albany, Macon aud
Savannah, with a request that the same be pub
lished.
On motion, the meeting adjouoned to meet
again at the call of the Committee.

John i tchel.
Mr. Mitehrl has declined a separate recep
tion from the Irish cine societies, but will meet
them to-morrow on the occasion of his receiving
hi- friends in the Governor’s Re-Inn. The re-
tion will commence at 11 o’clock. It is
j :i l ?0 contemplated, we understand, that all the
Iri-h : lilitary organizations of New York,
Brooklyn ami Jersey City will meet .Mr. Mitcb-
el, together, on tlte Battery, in the Park, or in
Castle Garden. This will be more in conso-
uauce with Mr. Mitchel’s own feelings, and trill
-uit his convenience better than continually re
curring separate meetings. It is on this ground
;liat he lias declined a dinner from the con
federates who presented him with an address.
Besides tiie reception to-morrow at the City
Uidl of New York, and the reception at the
City Hall of Brooklyn in a few days, and what
ever united solitary demonstration there may
be, Mr. Mitchel will be honored with a grand
public diuuer in this city, and also with an-
>thcr in Boston.
Mr. Mitchel has been offered sums of money
from clubs and individuals, but has invariably
declined these presents. One benevolent gen-
leman, who did not affix bis name or address
.o bis letter, enclosed a hundred dollar bill,
tnd Mr. Mitchell was greatly puzzled to find
but his whereabouts, that he might return the
money.—-Veto York Herald.
. Itlun-ciiml Election.
An election was held yesterday at the Court
House in this city, for Mayor and Aldermen, to
•erve for the ensuing year. 1,572 votes were
registered, and 1,138 votes polled. The elec
tion was conducted in a very orderly aud quiet
manner. This gratifying state of affaire is
owing, in a great measure, to the Registery
Act, and is in striking contrast with the scenes
of liot and violence which, informer years too
frequently disgraced our municipal elections.
The following is the vote for Mayor :
DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

MACON, O A
TUESDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 13. 1853.
Id?‘\Ye acknowledge the receipt of valuable
pnblic documents, from tbe Hon. Joseph YY.
Jackson.
Folit.cal Intelligence.
The Paris correspondents state that the
French Government was amassing troops all
along the line from Strasbourg and Marseilles.
It would be. enabled to send off, to thtf seat
of war, 1 J.),00J men at five days notice.
The course of England is still a secret.
The Sultan has effi/tally announced his
intention cf placing himself at tbe head of liis
troops in the spring.
A new note has becu prepared, but neither
the. Czar nor Sultan, would listen to it.
No .ieciaive battle has yet taken place.—
There has, however, been much fighting. Load
cannonading has been beard in various direc
tions. Reinforcements are hnrrying to tbe
Russian standard. Additional levies of troops
continue to arrive at the Turkish camp. It
the scasou should permit operations of great
magnitude, both parties will soon be in a con
dition to carry them out.
A general attack is to be made immediately
upon the Russian line, which, being very much
extended, is quite vulnerable. The isl tnd op
posite Guirgero, has been taken and re-taken
several times by both sides; at present it is iu
possession of the Turks.
From Switzerland we learn that the Presi
dent of the Republic, James Fazcns, lias re
signed, the Government being in a minority
in important measures.
The Marquis Do Lirevera, Spanish Minis
ter to Mexico, is transfered to Berlin aud is to
be succeeded by General Tacon. Marquis ot

The “Art of Prolonging Life ” says:—From
the history of the Jews we are enabled to col
lect the following facts: Abraham, & man oi
great and resolute mind who was fortunate in
all bis undertakings, attained to the age of 175
years; his son Isaac, a chaste, peaceable man,
and fond of tranquility, to IS.); Jacob, who
was also a lover of peace but cnifty aud cun
ning, lived only 147 years; Ishinacl, a war
rior, 137; Sarah, the ouly female of the an
cient world with whose duration of life we are
acquainted, lived 127 years; Joseph a man of
great prudence and political talents, muck af-
Hicted iu his youth, but greatly honored in his
latter days, lived to the age of 11 J.
Moses, a man of extraordinary strength and
spirit, rich in deeds but weak iu word*, carried
his life, during which he was exposed to great
care and fatigue, to the age of 12J. But he
cvcu complains that tho life of man endures
only tbrce-score-aud-tpu, or at most four score
years r and we hence find that, in regard to
age. the case was exactly the same three thou
sand years ago as it is at present.
The warlike and active Joshua lived to the
age of 11J. Eli, the high priest, a corpulent
phlegmatic man, of a resigned disposition, lived
to be only 9j; but Elisha, severe towards
others and toward* himself, who despised con
vcnieuce and riches, lived far above lJU. In
the latter period of the Jewish State, the
prophet .Simeon, a man full of hope and confi
dence iu God, was distinguished by a life of 9j
years.
However replete with fables the history of
tho Egyptian* may be, the age of their kiugs,
recorded from the earliest periods present no
thing remarkable. The longest reign is some
what above fifty years.

Baltimore. December 4.—The Democratic
Caucus which assembled iu YY’ashington on
Saturday night, was tolerably well attended.
The lion. Edson B. Olds, of Ohio, presided.—
The lion. Frederick P. Stanton, of Tennessee,
offered a resolution affirming the Baltimore
Platform, aud favoring the doetriues expressed
iu the President’s inaugural address, but pro
testing against the interference by the General
Government in State politics. The resolution,
however, was ruled out of order, and an ap

Sporting Challenge —A correspondent
writing from Richmond, ua ierdate of Novem
ber Id, aud over the signature “ Nina," trans
mits to the Picayune tbe following challenge,
with a request to publish it:
A gentleman in the columus of tbe Spirit of
the Times, over the signature of “ A Young
Turfman,” has been pleased to designate Bos
ton a* “a miserable, lurching, skulking, white-
legged, bull-uecked, big-headed, black-faced
old rip,” neither “ a race horse himself,” nor a
getter of “ racehorses.” If “A Young Turf-
nan ” is only funning,” I have nothing to say.
If, however, he is serious in enteitaining any
inch opinions, I will run the get of Boston at
the Charleston races a match, four mile heat,
against the get of any other horse “ A Young
Turfman ” can produce, for $5,000 a side. If
he is inclined to accept the barter, he can do so
by communicating with Captain John Belcher,
at the Cherokee Ponds, near Augusta, before
die 1st January, 1S54.
A Murderer Escaped.—Arguel MeClaran,
sentenced at the hist term of the Monroe comi
ty, Ky., Court, to be hanged on the 19th De
cember, escaped from the jail at Glasgow on
the 26th nit. He was rescued by between
sixty and a hundred persons in disguise. He is
about twenty-two years of age, five feet ten
inches in height, of a light complexion, and a
downcast look. A reward by the State authori
ties will no doubt be offered for his apprehen
sion.
Disaster to the California Packet, and
Fifteen Lives Lost.—Advices from Lim
erick, Ireland, state that the brig California
Packet. McNeil v, sailed from Broadhaven on
the 3rd uit., with four hundred tons of iron,
and fifty passengers, for New York. On the
next day, having sprung a leak, her crew and
passengers were compelled to take to the boats,
two of which floated about the sea for several
Jays, duriug which 15 persons, after great suf
fering, died. The rest were subsequently
picked up.

Baltimore, Dec. 5.
The U- S. mail steamship Black YY’arrior,
Capt. Bulloch, arrived at New York on Sun
day night from Mobile, via Havana, which
port she left on the 29ih uit. Judge Clayton,
the U. S. Consul at Havana, had arrived on
the precccdiug day. The new Captain Gen
eral, Pizuela, was daily expected. He comes
with tbe authority of a Y’ice Roy.
Sugar was dull, with tbe exception of low
Brovins. which had slightly advanced.—
Freights were scares.
Shocking Affair.—Rev. Geo. \Y r . Cara-
wan, says the YVilmuigtou Commercial of 2d
iustaut, was tried before the Superior Court of
Beaufort county, last week, iu a case removed
from Hyde, for the murder of a young man
named Lossitor, iu November last, who had
been teaching school near Carawan’a residence
iu Hyde, lie was found guilty.
The North State YY’hig of YY’cdncsday,says:
“Just as the crowd commenced to leave, a
report of a pistol was heard, followed immedi
ately by another. Cara wan had two self-
cocking, siugie-barrel pistols. YVith one he
aimed at Mr. YY’arrcn. The ball struck just
above hi* heart aud glanced, making a slight
wound. With the other lie 6hot a hole through
his t/tvn head. As we are going to press, lie
lies a corpse in the prisoner’s box, a good part
ot hi* brain having run out upon the floor.”
Mr. YV’arreu was one ot the council on the
part of the State.
nr (Ye have received, too late for publica
tion in our insue of to-day, a feeling tribute to
the manly worth of our deceased friend aud
fellow citizen, Col. R. A. L. Atkinson. YYe
very much regret that the crowded state of
our columns, render it impossible for us to
publish this eloquent testimonial in our pre
sent number, but it shall certainly appear in
our next issue.
\ '' " [Prenidfttt’H IttLcftMRKC.
YVe publish to-day a synopsis only of the
President’s Message. This important public
document was distributed through most of tbe
Northern cities, but was transmitted to no
point farther South than Richmond, Virginia.
The consequence is, that we have not received
a copy in time for oar present issue, and be
fore the Telegraph goes to press again, it is
probable that all of our readers will have al
ready seen the Message reported elsewhere.
YVe do not understand why a copy of such a

Election.
The annual Municipal Election for the city
of Macon, took place on Saturday, the 10th
inst. Five hundred and seventy one votes were
polled for Mayor, of which Dr. Strohecker.
the present incumbent, received 299, and Mr.
Bond, (whig) 272.
Tbe following gentlemen were elected Al
dermen: Rosa, Mix, YY’ise, Thomson, Holt,
Levy, Ayres, and Rodgers, five democrats to
three wings.
The contest for the Mayoralty, was close
and energetic, and we believe that Mr. Bond
elicited the full strength of his party. i
Mnb*rripli«a to the Warrentan Kauri
At a public meeting held in this city on
Tuesday night last, it was voted to subscribe
$100,000 io the Macon & YVarrenton Road.—
The amount is not so great as we might have
desired, but if other communities subscribe in
proportion, we shall soon have a connection
with Charleston.
Death of Col* K. A. L. Atkinouu.
Another old citizen of Macon has been sud
denly called from time into eternity ! Col
Robert A. L. Atkinson expired at his rest
dence, iu this city, last YVednesday morning,
after a very brief aud painful illness. This
melancholy event has filled our community
with surprise and sorrow, for scarcely were
wc made aware of his confinement to his house,
before we were called upon to lament his
death. Col. A. was a native of Jefferson coun
ty, but for the last eight or ten years was an
influential and highly respected citizen of this
place. His warm social instincts attracted
around him a large circle of devoted friends
while his public spirit and active intellegence
procured for him a marked influence with the
community in which be lived, and the politi
cal party to which he was attached. He fre
quently represented our county in the Legis
lature, and there is reason to suppose that had
his life been spared a few days longer, he
would have been elevated to a highly honora
ble official station. It ia difficult to realize
that he who so lately walked amoug us, en
dowed with all the attributes of vigorous man
hood—the centre of many warm hopes and as
pirations—should now be a tenant of the cold
and silent tomb. Let this impressive admo
nition remind us of “ YY’hat shadows we are
and what shadows we pursue."
The immediate cause of this mclauchoh
dispensation was an attack of erysipelas,
which first exhibiting itself iu the eyes, passen
rapidly on to the brain, aud defied all medical
treatment. Col. A. was probably about forty
years of age, and in his death we have to la
ment the loss of a highly capable aud ener
getic eftizen, whose place cannot easily be sup
plied. “ Peace be to his ashes.”
The Fir*t Mbad of the Nranou
YVas caught in Savannah on Friday last, was
displayed in front of the store of C. A. Ells
& Son on Saturday morning, and was subse
quently served up at dinner by our good
friends of the Lanier. The proprietois of the
Pulaski House offered twenty-five dollars for
his shadship, but the Agent of the Messrs
Ells was not to be beaten off the track. He
gave thirty dollars, and would have felt
authorized to give more if necessary, for it has
now passed into a fixed fact that Macon mtTsl
have the first Shad of the season. YY'e had the
pleasure of assisting in the final ceremonies at
the Lanier, and we do not wonder that the ab
duction of such a luxury creates an excitement
among tbe Aldermen of our sister city.
, Among the'other delicacies served up at the
Lanier, were venison, wild duck and pheasant,
these dishes being accompanied with a boun
tifal supply of Green Peas from the Garden
of Mrs. Rose in this city! Green Peas in De
comber are certainly worth a paragraph.
Better Yet.—The Second Shad of the
season was bought in Savannah by the Agents
of C. A. Eli.s & Son on Saturday night-
was presented to one of the Columbus Hotels,
and probably there served up ou Monday
YVe understand that Ells has concluded to
let Savannah have the third Shad of the sea-

Bonner’* Report.
Through the politeness of a friend we have
been favored with a copy of Col. Bonner’:
Report, with the accompanying Map. The
main features of tliis document having been
already spread before the public, we do not
think it necessary to refer to it farther than
to recommend its general perusal to our eiti
zens, and also, a particular inspection of the
Map, which exhibits the relations of this work
to the other lines of Railroad travel. There
are still two great lines of Railroad that should
be chartered to complete our system of inter
nal communication ; one of these extends from
the Rabun Gap to Maeon, and tbe other from
Macon to some point on the Brunswick Rail
road. The construction of these, would giv
Georgia the noblest and most perfect Railroad
system in the world, and make Macon the
greatest Railroad focus. YY'ho will say th*
they will not be built 1

Stop that Knocking.
The Federal Union says, that “ the Military
Institute, the Lunatic Asylum, the Deaf aim
Dumb Asylum, and the Institution for tin
Blind, are till knocking loudly at the door oi
the Treasury for aid.”
The Military Institute, it appear.-, has conn
lowii from Marietta. The Deaf and Dam!
Asylum has walked up to tin* Capitol. Tin
Lunatic Asylum ha? stepped over from Mid
av—and there they all arc rapping loudly
for admission. There is a mistake about tin
Institution for the Blind—wc are authorized t<
say that it has not left town—but we admit
that the. other three arc quite enough to pro
duce a very considerable knocking. It certain
ly should be etopped, and if Georgia were not
so terribly in debt, and the Guardians of the
Treasury so very crusty, we should advise
them by all means to provide a modern door
bell. But then the expense ! And the grave
responsibility ! Mr. Trice would be in agony.
Mr. Strother would wish to hear from the
people. Mr. Reynolds would agree with Mr.
Strother. The Federal Union would have a
leader proving that our forefathers lived very
comfortably without door-bells—and finally
the poor Finance Committee would have the re-
pousibility forced upon them.
Under these circumstances, we do not know
how to stop that knocking at the door. YY’hat a
condition of things! Tiie.ancieuts had nothing
to compare to it. Orpheus, it is true, made
the rocks to listen and the trees to follow him.
But we never heard of his moving three-story
brick buildings, Military Institutes, or Chari
table Asylums. Addison says that every
good metaphor offers a subject for a good paint
ing. Let some artist try his hand at this. Let
us see how the Military Institute, the Deaf
and Dumb Asylum, (all Asylums are deaf and
dumb, as far as we know—which one is this ?)
tho Institution for the Blind, and the Lunatic
Asylum, “ all knocking loudly at the door;”
let us see, we repeat, how this singular morn
ing call of our Institutions will look on canvass.
Valuable Work?.
YVe have received from the publisher, C. B.
Norton, of New York, a copy of Poole’s In
dex of Periodical Literature ; one of the most
useful and laborious works ever issued. It
must be an invaluable companion for the Edi
tor, the Professor, the Scholar—indeed, all
who are connected with literary pursuits.—
By turning to its pages, you can see iti an
instant, where to find any article? which lias
appeared on any particular subject, in the
standard periodicals of the last half century.
Not only this, but tbe number, page, and in
many cases, the author’s name. The work
itself, is, in the elegance of its typography,
the quality of the paper, and the style of the
binding, a model of the art of book-making.
YY r c take particular pleasure in noticing the
publications of Mr. Norton—once an obscure
youth in Maeon—he has risen by the exercise
of talent and euergy, to the’ rank of a first
elass publisher in the commercial metropolis
of the Union. YY’e instance as specimens,
Gen. Stuart’s two splendid volumes on our
Mail and YYar Steamers, and on the Naval
Dry Docks; the two finest and most costly
works issued from the American press.
Roxi-iuot of Shmdtin.
The following is a spicy saying, addressed
by Richard Brindsley Sheridan to a notorious
Resurrectionist of Ancient Jests, who, under
some singular hallucination, imagined himself
a wit:
Most men tlepend upon tlieir memory for tlieir
facta, and upon tlieir imagination for'tlieir wit ; hut
this gentleman, reversing the process, depends u;>ou
his memory for his wit, aud bis imagination for hi*
facts.”
Had Sheridan lived iu our day, this bon-mot
would have made our cotemporary of the
Federal Union his enemy for life. The allu
sion would have been considered two plain to
admit of question.
Sheridan anti the object-of his witticism are
both dead. Unfortunately for our generation,
poor Sheridan lias no successor, while the
•loke-snateber lives agaiu iu every issue of a
Milledgeville weekly.
Pope has a couplet which our metropolitan
cotemporary may read with profit—if, indeed,
lie ever reads any production other than “Jo
Miller’s Own Jest Book.” The intelligent
reader will admit that the lines have wit
enough to redeem the grocenesa of the com
parison. Comparing second-hand wit to the
original, the poet says:
“ It is the same, and still ’ti? not tho same.
For food digested bear* another name.”
Let our Milledgeville Joke-snatcher pay at
tention to the Author of the Dunciud.

Some idea of the passionate aud burning
speech of John Mitchel, at his reception in
San Francisco, may be gathered front the fol
lowing extract:
“ I was a freer man in the Bermuda hulk
than the unhappy Irishmen who saunter and
simper in the Dublin Chrystal Palace, and
make believe that they are loyal citizens and
members of society. Their souls dwell in a
hulk. From the brown shades of the Tasma
nian wood, I had a clearer view of the great
transactions and destinies of mankind than
they in the centre of their vicious civilization,
and amidst the crushing race of hungry candi
dates for teit thousand offices—which are Eng
land’s bribes and the devil’s. Therefore, you
will see it is not in ignorance or forgctfidness
of what has been passing these late years, that
1 dare aguin utter the creed of Irish nationali
ty—that I hail - your sympathy with Irish re
bellion. There are Irishmen here to-night—do
you, my countrymen, tell me that our cause is
lost forever ? Is the history of Ireland over
then ? Do you tell me to go baek to my is
land dungeon, and disturb uo more the march
of Auglo Saxon civilization, and the Chrystal
Palace progress of the species 1 Forgive me
the question, iny countrymen! I)o not our
hearts leap up at the very thought of the next
European convulsion ? Do they not burn with
in us when we think of all that * peace and or
der,’ as tyrants call the chained quiescence ol
slaves—how it will be shivered to atoms ou
some early day—a day to be called a white
day forever—with a crash that shall shake the
pillars of the globe, ami how thrones and prin
cipalities will totter and rush down into chaos
before the stormy wrath aud execration of gods
aud men ? Bear with me. 1 have plunged at
once into the very heart aud centre of my ab
sorbing subject. It lias been the passion of iny
life; it has been the dream of my prison hours
by day and night. No wonder that 1 rush so
eagerly to meet your offered sympathy, my
brother republicans. No wonder 1 gladly
hasten to realize to myself the full meaning tit
that sympathy, and to let all tlte world, tricud*
and enemies, know the same. Yes, 1, an Irish
rebel and republican, and proud of the title—
1, who write rebel utter my name, and "car ii
its a frontlet between my eyes—am welcomed
aud greeted by the citizens of this most Amer
ican ot American cities, tor my rebellion auu

over pleasantly and quietly, :u.J certainly did not di- ’
ninish the eqjojtnent ol' any. At an early hour on j
Wednesday morning, the crowd retired, carrying
with them an exalted estimate of tho hospitality of
Gov. Johnson, and his most excellent lady.
The House took np on Monday morning the bill to
illow Warren Freeman, of the county of Bibb, to |
practice Medicine on the the Homoepsthic system,
and charge for the same. The hill after some discus- ]
?ion, passed by a vote of 59 to 21.
Sir. Andrew’s reported a hill to incorporate the
Griffin & Monticello Railroad Company.

Guardians, so as to give them power to make titled
to land in certain cases.

general system of education by appropriating $200,-
300 for that purpose.
The Senate passed resolutions of respect to tho
memory of Judge Dougherty.
A bill was reported to incorporate the Dalilonega
Mihing Company.
A resolution was introdneed to oxeludc new mat
ter after tho 19th of December.
Mr. IIull reported a resolution to appoint a Com
mittee of thirteen, to report alteration* and amend
ments in the bill dividing the State into Senatorial
Districts.
On Tuesday, tlic House took up the hill for the
pardon of Elijah Bird, which had been previonsly
re-considered. Most of the day was occupied in dis
cussing the hill, the discussion being paiticipated in
by Messrs. Smith, of DeKalb, and Fannin, of Troup,
in opposition to, and Mr. Lamar, of Newton, iu tavor
of its passage. The bill passed, 49 to 42.
The Senato was principally engaged in debating a
a biff to extend jurisdiction of Justices’ of the Peace
to amounts involving 50 dollars. The bill was lost.
Both Houses a.ljonrned at an early hoar on that
day, in consequence of tbe levco coming off that
evening.
On YVednesday, a memorial was presented from
Judge Scarborough, charging Judge Abner I*. Pow
ers, of the Macon Circuit, with misconduct in his of
ficial position. Judge Scarborough charges, that in a
case in which he was counsel for Ilenry Hodge?, at
the Oetober Term of tho Dooly Superior Cotut, that
after Hodges was convicted, he filed a bill of excep
tions. After the bill had received the signature of
Judge Tower*, ho removed two page?, which were
written in Judge Scarborough’s hand-writing, and
inserted two ia his own hand-writing. Judge Scar
borough further charges, that these two pnges very
materially altered the hill of exception*.
Tho memorial was laid ou the table for the present,
hut on Friday was taken up and referred to a Com
mittee of one from each Judicial District, consisting
of Messrs. Green, Lamar, Irwin. McDougald, Hamil
ton, of McIntosh, Y\ r alker, Smith, of DeKalb, Har
den, of Clark, McCurdy, Armstrong, Yopp, Robin
son, of Randolph, and Gartrell.

Tho hill appoint* a* Commissioners for this purpose
Eugenius A. Nisb.-t, Hiram Warner, Hines Holt,
John M. Berrien, and Charles J. Jenkins.
Tiie Senate took up a bill to change the name of
the Court of Oyer aud Tcnniucr, Savannah, aud give
the election of Judge to the City Council of Savan
nah. The hill passed.
The Senate passed a hill to lay out a new county
from the county of DeKalb. The new county is
called Fulton county.
On Thursday, Mr. Gartrell, of Cobb, offered a re
solution rescinding a resolution which had been pre
viously adopted requiring a vote of two-thirds to sus
pend the rules of the House. The two-thirds resolu
tion had effectually tied the hands of the majority, *0
much so, that the Democratic party would not be
able to suspend the rules in 6rder to take up a reso
lution to enter into an election for U. S. Senator. On
a motion to suspend the rules in order to take up the
resolution of Mr. Gartrell, a 'discussion of great
warmth and length followed. The motion wa* not
able to obtain tivo-thirds of the members present,
and consequently the resolution was not takeu up.—
Let it be borne in mind hereafter, when any action of
unpopular character is charged upon the Democratic
party, as the party in power in the present Legisla
ture, that the YY’higs resorted to a miserable device
to prevent their acting in accordance with the will of
the people.
The Semite occupied the day in discussing a hill
repealing the Act, prohibiting the importation of
slaves into this State. The bill was lost. Nearly the
whole of Friday morning was occupied in debating a
motion to reconsider this bill. Tbe motion finally
prevailed.
Iu the House, o.t Friday, Mr. Pickett offered a reso
lution to bring on the election of U. S. Senator on

much of the Judiciary of this State, as relates to
the Justices of the Peace so as to give their jurisdic
tion on liquidated demands to the amount of $100.
The Uousc passed a resolution on this morning,
providing for taking a recess on tho 21st inst, un
