Barbonr—This gentleman, late one of the Editors ot the Atlanta Intelligencer, expired at La Grange, of pulmonary consumption, on the 7th instant. The Reporter of the 8th says He has been lingering upon the verge of the grave for many months, and his death has not been uaex perted. Some time ago he connected himself willi the Methodist church, and we have every reason to believe that he died with a perfect reliance upon the Christian religion. The "l'tailed My a o<l of the Presbyterian Church.»—A body of delegates from New School Presnjterian Churches of the South, having seceded from the N. S. General Assembly, on account of n ;' , i i ' 8 I* vnr y action, commenced a session at Knox ville, Tennessee, under the above style on the 1st atant, for the purpose of devising some plan of or ganisation. Last Wednesday a report and resolu tion* were adopted, appointing a Committee to attend the next Old School General Assembly at New Or leans, with instructions to propose terms of Union on the basis of a "Declaration of Principles " adop ted by the Synod. This Committee are Rev. Dr. Reid, of Virginia, and Rev. Mr. Marshall, of Ten nessee, with Dr. Boyd, of Virginia, and -Mr. McClain of Mississippi, aa alternates. Dr. Boyd wss appoin ted to consult with the General Assembly from which this Synod has withdrawn, and which meets at Chi cago in May next, in reference to property in which I lie Synod is interested. Revival of Hu.».<■»».—The N. Y. Herald of the .lb says:—Within the past few days business has revived in a surprising manner. As soon as the lakee open and the spring movement begins in the West, we shall be as busy as ever, despite the late hard times. We have never, for our part, published so many advertisements as during some day* of the past few weeks, Our receipts for advertising alone have varied from a thousand to fifteen hundred dol lars a day, and we have frequently been obliged to make a present to our readers of an extra sheet in order to give them the news. If this goes on, and trade continue to revive a» it lias begun, we shall ahortly be obliged to issue a triple and quadruple sheet several times a week. • Fritflilfnl nfrocily in Ilou.tou County. 1 We learn tlmt a dreadful crime was committed on Mnj. Belvin’s plantation in Houston Co ,lmt Tuesday afternoon,upon the person of Mrs. Bryant, the young wif«ol Major Belvin'a overseer. >’.ie had r.-tired lif ter dinner to tako a nap. and some time thereafter the servants outside the bouse, hearing moans, en tered her room and found her frightfully mutilated about the head and shoulders by blows from an axe. An old negro woman and young negro girl about the bouse were arrested and confessed to making the assault while the unfortunate Isdy was asleep. She was alive up to Saturday night, but «<• much in jured asto render it douhtttal, even if life is spired, whether she will ever regain the full use of her fac ulties. The affair uaturi.lly created the most intense excitement, and there was some disposition to exe cute the perpetrators on the spot, hut they were final ly committed to the jail in Perry to stand trial in Houston Superior Court next week. The old wo man, is, we understand, a negro of very bad char acter. .TIr. Krcrctt'n Oration* in Savannah and Au gusta, drew rapturous plaudits from the press of thoseeities.

It is supposed a pretty smart haul of money waa made. Of course the robber left this point on the cars, or got on them at some of the upper stations lor the purpose of committing this robbery ,und doubt less bad a confederate stationed at the place where the pouch waa thrown out.” The Jaffa <Outrngc—Tbo New Y'ork Observer says that the perpetrators of the horrible outrage and murder In the family of Mr. Dixson, at Java, in Syria, have boon arrested and condemned to death. Four teen murders have been perpetrated within twoyears in the vicinity of Jaffa and Jerusalem, on persons of dlflVrent nations, and no notice has been taken of them by government. The American Consul in- Gem raf in Egypt, Mr Da Leon, by his promptness and energy, brought about the seizure of the perpe trators. »j r .

Ho died on Saturday Morn ing, at half past seven o'clock, and his fuueral took place Monday, the 12th. llis mighty energies fought disease, pain and death to tbe last,- for up to within a day or two of bis death he is represented os still pros ecuting bis abridgement of Congressional debates. Remarkable as lie was in intellectual endowments, in industrious, untiring application the country lias nev er produced his equal among its great men. He was a man of giant mould in all his proportions, and though of late years justly no favorite in this section, thire are few, after alt, who will not regret to hear that "Old Bullion ” is gone.' Won’t “Wait for the Wagon.”—Minnesota has passed a bill amending her Constitution, so that the State executives may be qualified, and enter up on the duties of their respective officers at a sped, fled time, in the event of a longer delay on the part of Congress to recognize Mincsseta as a Statu of the Union. This amendment is to be submitted to the people ou the second Monday iu April, 1858, provided the State shall not be admitted prior to the time of holding said election. The terms of office will com mence 00 the 1st of May, nu.t continue until January I860, except that of the auditor, who will continue in office until 1961.

The Americans and Russians had joined in with the English and French iu the demands on China. Cominisaiom r Y'eh was still .3 pi isoner of the English at Hong Kong and bound for Calcutta. La ter advices from ft. Thomas state that Gen. Santa Anna had arrived there, but was bound tor Mexico via Havana. Fortifications in Cnbn.—;Thu New York Eve ning Post lias been informed, from a reliable source, that for some time post, the Government of Spain has been quietly but effectively engaged in improving her defences on the Island of Cuba, probably iu an ticipation of some combined effort to wrest the “ev er faithful Island" from her possession. The latest improvements in the an of war and military arms are readily adopted. Fillibuslrriaui.—We are informed that upon the representation of the Mexican Minister that par ties at the South are engaged in organizing unlawful expeditions for the invasion of the Northern portion of the Republic of Mexico—the movement being directed against the Sierra Madre country—the President has promptly caused instructions to be is sued to prevent such expeditions from being organ ized or fitted out within the limits of the United States.—(Nat. Intelligencer. I.ntc.t from Flail.—Utah dates to March 1st have been received at St. Louis. Gen. Johnston had at that time »n(efl active force of eighteen hundred men and one thousand animals, in good condition, together with a large force of volunteers, mainly Advertisements, Ac. Messrs. J. B. & W. A. Ross, our neighbors on the opposito corner, offer as usunl, a very large and comprehensive stock to meet their heavy whole sale trade. Rumor hath it that tlic sales of this firm do not fall much below half a million annually, and their ware-house is probably the largest in the State. A store of over 200 feet depth, and occu pying two floors, is not often met with anywhere. Messrs. W. \Y. Parker & Co., as dealers in fan- cry Dry Goods, have such an established reputa tion with the ladies that we will only point to their announcement of new seasonable goods. Mrs. Howland is ready with her Spring and Summer stock of very attractive Millinery. Next to the pretty face it was originally designed to shade, what can be prettier than a pretty bonnet ? Bkldex & Co., have fine styles of summer tiles for juveniles, ns well as for persons ofmaturer de- velopcment. Their ventillators we find to be vciy light and comfortable. R. P. McEvor, .is now located in his new quar ters, Granite Block, Mulbery Street, and will re ceive a visit from everybody, if only to admire his beautiful store. A large stock of handsome Crock ery neatly arranged, with all its gilding and paint ing, makes a showy exhibition in itself; but Mr. McEvoy has displayed great taste and liberality in fitting out ids establishment. It is one of the most attractive we have ever seen. He has recently received n supply of those pa tent Fluid Lamjis which consume the fluid by evap oration simply, and produce 11 whiter and more brilliant flame than is ordinarily procured from gas. A few evening’s trial inclines us to very favor able conclusions about this lamp. We find it fault less in the way of illumination, and much to our surprise less fatiguing A the eye than any other light, unless it be that of pure sperm or wax. The flame of the Kerosene burner, to say nothing the disagreeable odor it emits, is exceedingly inju rious to the sight. Let the eye rest on it a mo ment, and all else, for awhile, is blackness; and an hour or two of reading or writing by it will confuse and confound vision for the rest of the evening.— It is, however, the cheapest light for general illnmi- uating purposes we know of. A six jet fluid burn er, will consume a pint of fluid in about live hours, and produce for that time as much light as an ordi nary gaa burner witli pure eoal gas. The flame nearly or quite as large, and a smaller proportion of it blue. The reader can therefore form his own estimate of its economy, bawd upon this estimate and the price of the fluid. Jackson Barnes.—We are pleased to note that our friend Barnes, well known to the reader one of the quandam proprieiors of the Telegraph, has resumed his business of Book-Binding and Blank Account Book Manufacturing, an art of which he is a thorough master, and iu the pursuit of which we wish him signal rucccss. YVoon’s Gallkrt.—This is .is complete, well fur nished and thoroughly appointed establishment of the kind ns can be found almost anywhere.

YYe were pleased to see at Wood’s such evidences of skill, enterprise and prosperity. E. Winsbip has replenished his lately bare shelves with an abundant stoek of clothing adapted to the season. Titor. Fowler.—YVe again invite attention to the Lectures of this distinguished Phrenologist, whose reputation in that department of Science is altogether unrivalled. We are pleased to see that he has been highly successful in his Southern tour this winter. Tn* Fire Department, it will be seen, baa ap pointed ita customary semi-annual parade for next Thursday, when there will be a trial of strength and capacity between the different companies, and an award of Prizes. This is usually an excilin day in Macon, and this time the interest will be increased by a new competitor. Young America, with her new equipment, will give No. 1 a hard tug for the laurels, and No. 2 has been fixing up with evident intention. The Fire Department is our great "institution,” and we shall display onr bunt ing from the now Telegraph Office for the first time in due honor of the parade. Itlrs. Sholi’s Concert, Last Friday evening, was quite a successful affair. A large and most intelligent auditory, gave very decided demonstrations of appreciation to both the artists, Mrs. Sholl’s voice is one of remarkable sweetness and power, and she has the material of a first rate cantatrice. Mr. Vicweg is an accomplished musi cian—a splendid performer, both upon the Piano and Violin. Early iu the Field. If any reader of the Telegraph feels that when at a seasonable hour, uu ample Julep is brought to him compounded in Jaugstetter’s best style—tem pered to an icy coolness—flavored with delicious syrups—and, better still, with a handful of bright red strawberries, ofJaugstetter’sown raising, gath 1 consisting of trappers and person*accompanying the i erc d as they glistened with the morning dew, and trains. It is now the universal impression tlmt Gen- | noir lving in such beautiful contrast with the living cral Johnston would not await reinforcements before making the attack. Nothing farther laid been heard of the Mormon preparations. Judge Iioring.—We are glad to see that this gentleman, recently removed his position of Judge by Governor Banks, of Massachusetts, is appointed as Sub-Treasurer at the port of Boston. The Coming Summer.—It is said that the Earl of Rosse, one of the first astronomers in Europe, has told a gentleman in England that he anticipates one of the most intensely hot summers this year that has ever been known, and he advises farmers to bnild sheds for their cattle, by way of protection against the extreme heat. Narrow Gicniir of n U. S. Vessel.—The U. S store vessel Release, Lieutenant Parker command ing, which left Boston, January 30, with stores for the Mediterranean squadron, nrrived at Spezzla, Mnrch 3. after a stormy passage, and a narrow es cape from foundering. She was only saved by throwing overboard her two guns of 3700 weight each. Tlic I’tnh niillnililcs.—If is stated that tbo President will appoint n commission to proceed to Itah tor the purpose of inducing the Mormons to yield obedience, by representing the determination ofthe government to reduce them to submission, and the uselessnens of opposition. Gov. Powell and Ma jor McCulloch are spoken of as the commissioned.

Joel Crawford* Major Joel Crawford, of Early county, Georgia, died at his rrridcncc, ou the 4th. No man in tlic State enjoyed a wider or better reputation. Be commenced his eareer aa a lawyer in Sparta, iu 1808—enlisted as a volunteer in the war of 1812— was brevetted aid-de-camp to Gen. Floyd, and in this capacity served throughout the struggle with the Creeks. He was twice elected Representative in Congress, under the general ticket system—be held from Gov. Troup tlie appointment of Commis sioner for scttliug tlie boundary lino between tlic States of Georgia and Alabama, and was one of the Board appointed for the survey and location of the State Rail Road. Southern Commercial convention A list of Delegates to this Convention, under ap pointment by the Governor, and the Address of the Committee of the Convention, urging a gener al attendance, will be found in the Telegraph of to day. The appointments will hardly fail to inspire general approbation and confidence. The dele gates are nil men of mtelligence, reputation and position, selected without party Lins, and present ing, as we conceive, a fair embodiment ol publl opinion in the State. Unless exception be taken to the meeting of the Convention and to any rep rc.-entatiou at all therein, tho course of the Govcr nor in this matter must therefore be entirely satis factory. The Address ofthe Convention Committee also meets our fullest approbation. It is most judicious ly conceived and admirably expressed; and wc hope will have its effect in assembling at Montgom cry such a body of Southern Statesmen as shall be clear and unmistakcablc exponent of Southern opinion. Let us know where we stand, and upon what and how far it is possible to concentrate the Southern mind in the great work of self-defence and self-preservation. True, the Convention is not called as a political body, but in the existing state of political questions, ita deliberations will undoubt cdly take that shape, and afford some reliable indi cation of public sentiment. It is in tlie aspect alone, that we feel any inter est in the Montgomery Convention. Experience has shown, and all reason would lead us to conclude, that nothing particularly valuable in the way of building up Southern trade could be elaborated by an assemblage called upon so definitive proposi tions, and ranging day after day in loose and dis cursive debate over the whole field of “matters and things in general.” Successful schemes of trade and profitable business operations are not to be de vised and carried out in that way. But were it possible for the Southern States to concentrate heartily and unanimously upon some defensive political policy, naturally suggested by the present position of affairs, a great work would be accomplished both for themselves and the coun try. Intelligent men, who dread a dissolution of the Federal Union as in itself a perilous experi ment, or a kind of treason to tho cause of republi canism and free government, and to the memory of a patriotic ancestry by whose toils and blood the government was established, ought to reflect upon the manner in which such a catastrophe is likely to occur. It will never oceur, we venture to predict, as tlie result of a settled conclusion, or by tlie wil ful and deliberate forcing of the one party by the other to this mutually understood and clearly re cognized extremity. It will probably come at last like all family breaches, by surprise and in some sort accidentally. Every day, week, month and year brings an increasing alienation of feeling be tween the two sections. Northern injustice, insult and domination is rankling with every sun, deeper and deeper in tlic .Southern breast. Almost every feeling of national consanguinity between the two sections is already gone, and in its place is arising a sentiment of actual hostility. Thus it will con tinue, until it shall find a head most probably on the floor of Congress, on some comparatively tri fling occasion, which shall devclopc tills feclin; All force by actual collision—and, (it may he to the astonishment of tlie actors themselves), show that tho Union is already gone irrecoverably—gone through an intensity of mutual hatred which ren ders even its nauie intolerable! Such, it seems to us, is the way in which the Union will be dissolved, if dissolved at all. It will not come by “calculation” or by “pre-determination.’, The* non-slaveholding States will certainly never ‘calculate” in that way. The YVcstem States would never agree to give their river outlets to the sea into tho hands of a foreign power; and tho Northern sea’ board States would never coolly bargain away and forfeit Southern trade. Either w ill do us justice rather than coolly permit and suffer these inconve niences. Disunion will coiue, if at all, as tlic inevi table fruition of an uncompromising hatred, rank ling and_ deepening through years of insult and wrong, itself thercsultofa belief that it can be safety indicted—of that contempt for,' and undervaluation ofthe South which is so sedulously cultivated and encouraged by tlic Northern frcc-soil politicians.— The best preventive of war is said to be a thorough preparation for it. A thoroughly united and de fensive attitude would secure us from aggression The Union will be safe when the North feds it in danger, and practically they will be its most effec tivc ( focs, who shout the loudest for it. That inde pendence of thought and action—that noble devo tion to principle, which secured it, must alone pre serve it, or it will sink into universal contempt and execration as the mere instrument of an unscrupu lous and unconstitutional despotism. In consulting her own self-preservation, the South will most ef fectually consult the preservation of the‘Federal Union. “A Printing Bureau.” YVe see by the YVashington correspondence that Congress is about to do, in our judgment, i unwise thing in establishing a "Printing Bureau.’ For example, the Herald correspondent says "I learn that the Select Committee ofthe House on Printing intend to report a bill for the establish ment of a Printing Bureau. The hill, I think you will find will be in accordance with tlie ideas and view- t-xpivs.-fd from time to time in the Ili-r:ild. Printing, binding, engraving, all Congressional re ports and debates—in fact everything that is now done outside, by contra, t or otherwise—is to be car ried on and accomplished by the Bureau thus es tablished. There is to be a Superintendent, a Com missioner of Binding, Ac.’’ It is a strangely conceived idea, at war with ev ery result of experience in every department ot the Government, that anything in the way of sa ving and economy is to be effected by these Bu reaus or nay multiplication of such officials. Y\ e believe that euquiry would establish the fact that every public service effected through them is done loosely and wastefully, and there is no more neces sity for a Printing Bureau, than for a Blacksmith- ing, Carpentering, Bricklaying, or Tailoring Bu reau. There is no mechanical service required by the Government which can be more easily confined within the limits of a just economy, either as to amount or price, than this one of printing; and a Committee of both Houses, with plenary power, would serve every purpose, ami serve it better than this Printing Bureau, which, as a permanent estab lishment, would be more accessible to corrupt in fluences than a Congressional Committee. The multiplication of officials is a disorder of the times, which needs abatement—but so far from abate ment—this project will call for a thousand more government employees and officials. It will waste money—open the flood-gates of abuse and corrup tion, and finally have to be abandoned at great loss. Good Practical Sense. The practical good sense of Gov. Brown, as wc learn by the Federal Union, was worthily displayed a few days ago, in re-mailing to the Gov. of Maine a bundle of fagots, in the shape of abolition resolutions passed by the Legisla ture of Maine and inelosed to his Excellency by, the Governor of that State, with the re quest to lay them before the Legislature of Georgia. Gov. Brown very quietly returned them from whence they came, without note or comment, and this is what we hope he will do with every thing of the kind which comes from the non-slaveholding States. The object of snch missives is simply to-inflict a taunt and stir up bad feelings and excitement; and it should be met and foiled by a course of quiet contempt! To transmit such stuff to the Leg islature with the comment it deserves, might have done, when something like sisterly amen ity from the non-slaveholding States was the rule and not the exception ; but it is of no use now. YY r e may safely assume that every North ern State Legislature has let off its annual blast of of defiant abolitionism without any of ficial information from the Governor on the subject; and he will consult economy and dig nity by quietly sending them back or lighting his cigar with them, as is most convenient. Should any of those States, have anything kind, friendly or respectful to communicate, the Governor will doubtless surprise the State by giving it to the Legislature. “Who Would a Thunk it!” AN AFFECTING INCIDENT. There are sunny spots in what the illustri ous Pogram calls ‘ the nutral sile of private life,” in the genial warmth of which the haughti est and sternest spirits unbend and melt and fuse in heartfelt sympathy. One of these is indicated in the little narrative below, from the New Y'ork Express, which describes a most affecting interview between Jolm J. Critten den, Humphrey Marshall and Joshua Gid dings!!! The stern and bitter fanaticism of Giddings— his unrelenting hostility to the South and to Southern men, dissolves at once into the melting mood as he encounters these distinguished coadjutors in the Kansas contro versy. But why should Giddings confine his friend ly co-operative grip and genial sympathy to Messrs. Crittenden and Marshall ? Mr. Crit tenden’s speech is published and commended in the Southern (Milledgcvillc) Recorder, and is copied in whole or in part and complimented by most of the Georgia American prints. If that made this illustrious tri "so united” in warm tears, true patriotism and gushing sym pathy are there not many more in the same hoi}’ communion ? In a word—if Giddings is non- "following” Crittenden, most of our Geor gia American presses arc doing no less and are in the same crowd. Let them reflect u pon the natural suggestions of this "interesting inci dent !” The Express, in its Washington correspon dence. has the following interesting incident “On Saturday last, while the discussion upon the Kansas question was in progress, and while all parties in the House were more intent upon arrangements for the final struggle than upon the arguments of speakers, and while all were in doubt as to what might be the ultimate course of Mr. Giddings and his confreres, the Hon. Mr. Crittenden came into the ball, and, near the door, was joined by the Hon. H. Mar shall. But a moment was permitted them for communication, when Mr Giddings went for ward and taking Mr Crittendon warmly by the hand with a recognition of Mr Marshall at the same time, he said : ’Who could have be lieved this of me, that I should be found with you, following you? But while I have spent a long life in fighting against enemies, and am ready still to fight them, I have never fought and cannot now fight, against my friends. 1 remember well the occasion when, the ban of exclusion having been passed upon me in this House, I had taken my hat and was about leav- 000 whites and 8.000 free blacks. jsTmi'* 8 ’' ing, I met you, Mr. 'Crittenden, with Henry groes, (slaves) employed in field labors Tu Clay at the door, and that you each gave me, * l ’“ c ” ’ ’’ ■ ’ in that moment of trial, the warm hand of sym pathy and friendship. I do not forget, for the great end’s sake, strange as it inay seem to some, and censured as I may be by many, in memory of the past, I am with you, I go with you.’ A gush of the warm tears of a true pa triotism here came forth from the three so uni ted, and the fate of Lecomptou in the House was so sealed past redemption.” Georgia Baptist State Convention This body will convene at Americas, Georgia, on Friday, the 23d inst. Reese’s Manual.

The necessity for and convenience of such a work as the foregoiug is tooapparent for comment. It gives in a compact and connected form infor mation indispensable almost to every citizen of the State, and which is accessible otherwise only at tlie inconvenience and expense of legal counsel or of laborious search through a multitude of Statutes.— The author has done an important public service in this work, and wc hope will be well rewarded for ids labor.

The Fate of the Kansas Bill. X” of the Baltimore .Sun, speaks very con- ntly of the passage of the Kansas Bill in pite of the recent breakdown in the House. He says:— As I observed in my published letter ol Saturday, th coalition has culminated. It cannot and will not stick together. The black republicans have made the worst record for themselves, and the democrats need not b« afraid to meet them on the stump. Not only will Lecoinpton pats dean, but the democrats and national men who vote for it will be able to sus tain their positions triumphantly at homo. Krd-: 8 will pans ; thu league will be dispersed, and the President will be sustained. 1 hose who laugh last, laugh be:-t. The Kansas bill is now in a benutilul position, and will become dear to every national man from the very dangers with which It whs beset, and the odds and ends of all factions who opposed it. The demo cratic party will be purified. Summer Temperature of the South. To correct a very common misapprehension that the Summer temperature of the South is necessarw ly higher than that of the North, wc copy the fol lowing paragraph from a Letter of Sargeou-Geaer- al L:*vson, recently addressed to Semttor Yulcc, respecting the climate of Florida. This letter cm bodies niauy interesting facts and observations— the result of personal experience and accurate thermowctric records kept for a series ol yean. Its statements, therefore, may be relied on. YY’e have room, however, for the followingparagfiph only: For example, the winter at Fort Snclling,^Iir ncsota Territory, is 48 degrees colder than at Fort Brooke; but the summer, at Fort Brooke, is only about 8 degrees warmer. The mean Annual tem pemture of Augusta, Georgia, is nearly 8 degrees, and that of Fort Gibson, Arkansas, upwards of 10 degrees lower than at Tampa, yet iu both these places tlic mean summer temperature ishigherthon ut Fort Brooke. In the summer season the mer cury rises higher in every other part of t-be United State, and even in Canada, than it does along the coast of Florida. This is shown by meteorological statistics on file in this bureau. At Portland, Me., and on the coast of New England the thermometer attains an average height in summer of 04 degrees F., and in winter descends to 7 degrees, having an annual range of 101 degrees. At Fort Mifflin, near Philadelphia, the thermometer has an annual range of 87 degrees, rising to 94 degrees F. in summer, and falling 8 degrees in winter. At Fori Moultrie, Charleston harbor, the average range is 70 degrees, being in summer 90 degrees, and in winter 20 de grees. At Fort Pierce, (or Capron,) Indian River, Florida, the range is 59 degrees, its average maxi mum being 94 degrees and the minimum 35 de grees. At Fort Brooke tlie annual range is 58 de grees, having a summer maximum of 92 degrees, and a winter minimum of 34 degrees; while at Key YY'est the average annual range is only 35 degrees, being for summer 89 degrees, and 54 degrees for winter. If we were to extend our comparison by including the stations of the interior of the United States remote from the influences of the sea-breezes, tho difference would be still more apparent. This point will be illustrated sufficiently by comparing the temperature of Florida, as above given, with that of portions of Texas lying w ithin the same pa rallels of latitude. At Fort Brown, near l he mouth of tlie Rio Grande, where tlie summer heats are much modified by the strong coast-breeze, the mean annual range is 07 degrees, or from 95 de grees in summer to 28 degrees in winter. In the interior of Texas, tlie range is very great, the sum mer heats rising to a mean of 112 degrees in the valley of the Rio Grande at Laredo, (Fort McIn tosh,) and to 103 degrees at the posts on the up per plains. It falls to a mean of 20 degrees in winter in the Rio Grande valley, and to 10 degrees on the plains, making the range near 92 degrees in each case. At Fort Smith, Arkansas, the range is 108 degrees, having the- summer temperature of 103 degrees and the winter temperature of 5 do- grt'M.” Receipts from the State Road. YVe are gratified to find the following fu the Fed eral Uniou of last Friday: ‘YY’c learn that tho debts due by tlie Road so far as discovered, have been paid by Dr.. Lewis, the present energetic and faithful Superintendent, and that from this time forward be will be able to make monthly payments of the nett earnings of the Road into the Treasury. Oil YY'cdnesday last, Col. Trippe, the State Treasurer, received from the Treasurer of the Road, §20,000. YYe are informed that the Su perintendent has purchased new iron for some four or five miles of tlic Road, and is having it laid down, and the track thoroughly repaired, wherever re pairs are needed. Gov. Brown’s order is that the Road bo kept in first rate condition. If the Super intendent can do this, and keep the Road out of debt, and can pay regularly some §15,000 or §20,- 000 per month of clear cash into the Treasury, the people will begin to appreciate both the value of the Road and the value of the services of such a Superintendent. Should no great casualty hap pen to the Road, such as injury from floods or tlie burning of bridges, we have no doubt wc shall be able to announce to onr readers monthly payments in future. “YY'iili such men as Dr. Lewis, Dr. Phillips, and Col. May at die head ofits affairs, the people have sufficient guarantee tlint proper economy will be used, and every dollar made by the Road faithfully aceouuted for.” The Atlunta Intelligencer, remarking upon this paragraph, expresses a confident opinion that with ordinary crops and in the absence of casualties by flood and fire to the Road, twenty-five thousand dollars will hereafter be paid in monthly to the State Treasury, by the Superintendent ofthe Road.

Her exports, which once amounted, under a different politr, wU her soil was cultivated by slaves instead of ap. prentices, to $ , are now reduced to the pitiful amount of some four hundred thousand dollars a year, (a sum which the crops of two Cuban sugar planters will over balance) while her imports exceed one million three hundred thousand dollars and show a balance of tndf against her of more than 600,000 dollars anne ally. The peculiar source of the prosperity of Cn ha then, is her possession of slave labor. §bt owns six hundred thousand slaves. It is this element which she has, and which the oibrn want; and by all logical sequence, you must ascribe her unquestionable superiority to thii cause. It is as clear as proof can mate it! tat this matters nothing to the Abolitionist! H? won’t believe the proofs, more than this, k won’t read them .' He don’t wish for the trati, and he won’t find it. It would only serve to destroy his self-esteem, which he cherishes even more than another man. It would kt show him what an ass he was, and whit iso he had made his idols. It is slave labor then. It is tbe possen'oi of these six hundred thousand African slave-. which is the peculiar source of her prosperity. They are employed in the production ofrapr, molasses, aguardients, coffee, tobacco, fruits, indian corn, potatoes and cotton, whenever tie price justifies the culture; butif cotton is not now produced, the neglect comes from economic and not from climatic reasons, it is simply be cause this article of culture is now less remu nerating than tbe others. In the third volume of Commercial Reports, printed by order of the Senate, page !•& « lave “the computed value of the production of Cuba in 1855,” amounting to a total of 900,000—a sum almost incredible when consi dered in reference to the laboring force produc ing- it. Of all the agricultural products whiJ> go to compose this immense amount, tbe rag# is the most important. In tbe table >wa which we quote, the sugar is set downata val uation of $36,000,000; Molasses, $2,WO,Oft Tobacco, cigars, cigaritos, &c., $32,000,000: Fruits, $2,000,000; Coffee, rum, boney. minerals, &c., 5,500,000;—Tqfal.
