“ Executive Usurpation.
IVe were much astonished to read in the last
Journal and Messenger a severe invective a
gainst Mr. Buchanan—for what? For using
his official power and influence to secure the
passage of the Kansas bill! says that paper
‘•No one will pretend to deny that every device has
been used, and every appliance bcoughtinto requisi
tion to press through Congress the Kansas bill. The
Administration resorted to every expedient to do this
Members of the Cabinet and federal officials, public,
ly and pri vately, on the floors of Congress ana in tho
itreets, attempted to force through this rneas_ure—not
is a national measure, bnt as an administration party
measure. The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Patriot thus alludes to this outside press,
ire."
And assuming the charge confessed, onr
aeighbor discourses eloquently of executive ty
.-anny and usurpation—of contravening “pop
ilar legislation,” (which just now, we sup
pose, must mean black republican legislation)
ind of paralysing the popular will. He com
pares James Buchanan to the English James I,
in a style which would do credit to any Tope
ta print in the country, but which looks
itrange enough in the columns of the Journal
& Messenger.
We fear, on this topic of the Kansas Bill, our
neighbor to use an expression of Dean Swift,
don’t know what to be at.” Some time ago
lie was complaining of the “ temporizing po
licy” of the administration. When the first
annual message came and relieved him some
what of his fears on that head, be thought the
whole South should “ unite in sustaining” Mr.
Buchanan’s position as affording the best set
tiementwe can get of the Kansas troubles.—
When the special message came, its views met
Lis “ entire approval” and he denounced all
pposition. But last month, new light comes
rnd he exclaims “ Hands off, we want no
Kansas Bills.” In the course of three or four
months he has boxed the compass completely.
Beginning with charges of temporizing, imbe-
ility and vascillation by the President, he
vrinds up by characterizing him as a tyrant,
usurper and dictator—a James First—brow
beating Congress and trampling the popular
will under foot. Commencing as a zealous
friend of the Kansas Bill, impatient of all op
position and a little distressed with doubts
whether even Mr. Buchanan is quite enough
its friend, in a few weeks he forgets his love—
cries hands off—enough—we want no Kansas
Bills!
We are afraid Mr. Buchanan will never be
Mr. Editor.—-I observe in the last Journal &
Messenger the protest of Messrs. Anderson, Free
man, Jones and Harrison, against the action of
tho Mayor, in voting the Stock of the City in the
Maeon Gas Light Company, at the recent election
for Directors, contrary to a resolution of thc City
Council, Instrnetiiig him to vote for certain per
sons for Directors. This Resolution had only three
affirmative votes in its favor, in a full Board of
eight members, ail present; one of the Protestants
being one of those whom the Mayor was instruct
ed by the resolution to vote for. After reciting the
action of Connell on the 9th inst., they say
1st. That the Mayor had “no right or power" to
represent the City Stock in said annual meeting of
the Gas Company, except in so far as he was au
thorized so to do “by the Council of which he is
but a single member—that he would have had no
right to vote for the City at all, if he had not re
ceived authority from the Council, &c.
Now thc answer to the above protest, and the
authority on which the Mayor acted, can be found
in the Telegraph of March 1st, 1853, and I pre
sumo every unprejudiced man in the City will say
the Mayor was right, after reading the resolutions
appended below.
At a meeting of the City Council^held February
25th, 1853; Present—Dr. E. L. Strohecker, May
or, G. W. Adams, Johnston, Whittle, Clayton,
Holt, and 0, F. Adams, Aldermen; Smith absent
and one vacancy,
Alderman Johnston offered three resolutions in
reference to Gas, which were unanimously adopted:
1st. Authorizing the Mayor to subscribe for
Stock in the Macon Gas Light Company to the ex
tent of §10,000, prescribing conditions, &c.
2d. Authorizing the Mayor to contract with the
Gas Company for lighting Sixty Street Lamps, &c.
3d. Resolved, That his Honor the Mayor, and
his successors in office, be and they are hereby au
thorized, to represent and vote the Stock of the
City of Macon in all meetings of the Stockholders
of the Macon Gas Light Company.

Advantages of notation in Crops
1. Each crop exhausts the soil of certain ele
ments. Continuing the same crop for many
years consume these elements. The soil will
not produce that crop longer. Another crop
will consume another order of elements, and
will flourish when the first will not grow.
2. Each plant, while growing, throws off
certain matters which are not favorable to the
growth of successive crops of the same plant.
Plants in this respect are somewhat like ani
mals, always avoid their own excrements.—

The Ocean Mail Bill.
We find the following synopsis of -Mr. Flor-
pens that the Telegraph is almost a stranger to
all our public men, and has nothing to ask or
expect of them in any way. If there is a press
in Georgia altogether independent of mere
partisan and personal considerations, it is thc
Telegraph. We simply speak to what is right
and proper in itself; and if the Democrats of
Georgia wish to build up a party which will
be of service to the State, they must not be on
thc watch to assail and undermine their own
public agents. They must be willing to accord
a fair construction—a measureof justice which
they themselves would demand, and leave thc

News from Cuba.
The steamer Black Warrior, which arrived at New
York on the 19tli, from Havana, brings intelligence
from that port to tho 14th inst.:
Reports from Havana are to tho effect that eigh
teen British gun-boats are stationed around the is
land, on coast survey and to prevent the landing of
negroes ; that American vessels trading about the
island have been boarded and searched in the most
insolent manner by them, withoutany ground of sus

The ball on board of the ship-of-the-lino Isabel II,
on the night of the 11th, was a magnillicent jam. The
illumination of the vessel from deck to the main-top,
and of the navy-yard, with tho continuous arched
ways leading to the ship, was perfect—the decora
tious gorgeous and profuse—and the company em
bracing nil the wealth and beauty wo can boast. The
value of the diamonds blazing in the jrowd was im
mense—said to bo counted by millions of dollars.—
The only fault was tho impossibility of seeing, or
individualizing. You could not approach a friend
except by casualty in the moving muss, or reacli any
particular object of attraction except floated to it
mid lace and brilliants. All the vessels- of-war in the
vicinity wore illuminated, and tho show upon the
bay and shore was a brilliant confusion—decoration
and light realizing all the fancy of eastern legends
and story—a night scene of poetry, without a rival

Fenella was fine-featured, fresh, fleet-footed
fairy, frank, free and full of fun. The fisher
failed, and was forced by fickle fortune to
forego his footman, forfeit his forefathers’ fine
field, and find a forlorn farmhouse in a forsaken
forest. The four fretful females, fond of fig
uring at feasts in feathers and fashionable fine
ry, fumed at their fugitive father. Forsaken
by fulsome, flattering fortune-hunters, «Lo
followed them when first flourished. Fenella
fondled her father, flavored their food, forgot
her flattering followers, and frolicked in frieze
without flounces. The father, finding himself
forced to forage in foreign parts for a fortune,
found he could not afford a farthing to his five
fondlings. The first four were fain to foster
their frivolity with fine frills and fans, fit to fin
ish their father’s finances. Fenella, fearful of
flooring him, formed a fancy for a full fresh
flower. Fate favored the fish factor for a fez

Alley's footsteps faltered, and food failed. He
found himself in front of a fortified fortress.
Finding it forsaken, and feeling himself feeble
and forlorn with fasting, he fed on the fish,
flesh and fowl he found, fricasseed and fried,
and, when full, fell fiat on the floor. Freshin
the forenoon, he forthwith flew to the frnitJiil
fields, and not forgetting Fenella, filched afiir
flower, when a foul, frightful, fiendish figure
flashed forth; “Felonious fellow, fiager.cg
my flowers, I’ll finish you! Go say farewell
to your fine felicitous family, and face me in a
fortnight!” The faint-hearted fisher famed
and faltered, and fast was far in his flight—
His five daughters flew to fall at his feet and
fervently felicitate him. Frantically and flu
ently he unfolded his'fate. Fenella, forthwith
fortified by filial fondness, followed her father’s
footsteps, and flung her faultless form at the
foot of the frightful figure, who forgave the
father, and fell flat on his face, for he had fer
vently fallen in a fiery fit of love for the fair
Fenella. He feasted her fill, fascinated by his
faithfulness, she forgot the ferocity of his taw,
