(Limes avfo %mHneL * COLUMBUS, GEORGIA SATURDAY EVENING, OCT. 6, 1355. \\ hat Next ?—Kansas Emigration Aid society of Georgia. Now that the election is over and it is settled by a verdict of the people that there shall be no change in the uniform rule of national policy as to naturalization and religious freedom, we may hope to engage public atten tion iu the consideration of vital importance to the Southern States. The Kansas troubles are daily growing more com plicated, and no time ought to be. lost by the Southern people in a conceited movement to aid oor friends in that Territory, The Northern aud Southern ekerrnishers bare crossed swords upon the bordcra of Missouri and the event of the conflict has been favorable to the South ; but the battle proper has yet to take place, and unless the Southern hosts receive large and timely reinforce ments, they will be as powerless as L?onidas at Ter mopylas, to turn back the hordsof Northern fanaticism. We are afraid the Southern people are not alive to the immense interests involved in the struggle now going on in Kau&as. In our judgment not only the fate ot the Union but the destiny of the South are staked upon the issue. A Iready there is a decided Northern preponde ranee in Congress aud in the electoral college against the South. If fraternal feelings existed in the two grsud division* of the Union this disturbance of the balance of power in the Government would be cf no practical moment. But instead of love, direst hate pervades the Northern mind towards their brethren of the South. Not only are the emissaries of abolition tole rated at the North; but martyrdom in the abolition crusade is the surest pasport to public confidence and indeed the only infaiiblo avenue to the honors and emolu ment of office in the Northern Stales. Slavery is re garded by our Northern brethren as the sin par ex cellence of the American people. To steal a negro and spirit him across the border, so far from being repro brated as a sin, is regarded as a species of heroism which entitles the rogue to canonization. Hence the avidity with which the Northern people seized upon the pro ject of colonizing Kansas with abolition emissaries, and the astonishing success which has crowned the efforts cf the Massachusetts Emigration Aid Societies. Defeat in their purpose to gain control of the Terri torial Government aud thus legislate slavery out of Kansas, has not dampened the ardor of the fanatics.— The work still goes bravely on and emigrants are being doily forwarded to the Territory. Hitherto Missouri has had to cope single handed with the prolific holds of New England and the north-west; her success has been as gratifying as it is astonishing ; but the contest is unequal ; and without material aid from the South, the Missouri settlers must be overpowered. But how shall the needed succor be afforded ? There is no diiSculty about the matter whatever. There are thousands of Southern meu, “to the manner born.” who would gladly emigrate to Kansas, if the means were furnished them to pay the expenses of the journey and buy a pre-emption right to the soil of Kansas. A negro thrown in would quicken their zeal, but as this would be two severe a tax upon Southern liberality, or rather, more than it will stand, we think it had better bo abandoned at once, aud all the funds raised be ap propriated to the purchase of a pre-empt ion for actual settlers and the defraying of the actual expenses of the trip. If a judicious selection is made of the immigrants, there is no danger of their abandoning the South after they arrive In Kansas. We suggest then, to the next Legislature the pro priety of incorporating a ‘‘Kansas Emigration Society for the State of Georgia,’ 5 with power to establish Aid Societies in every county in the State, upon the plan of our great Southern Central Agricultural Society, aud its associated clubs in the several counties. In the mean time we, call upon the press and poli ticians of Georgia to bring this plan before the people. If any thing is done for Kansas, it, ought to ba done quickly ; the candle is burning at both ends ; twelve months will determine whether, the North or the South is to have Kausas ; or, in other words, whether South ern civilization is to advance pari passu with the growth of the Republic, or is to remain stationary aud, of consequence, to dwindle and die out, while the des cendants of the Puritans conquer the world, aud impose upon mankind their hard, stiff’, meddiing system of Government; and their morose, intolerant and hypocriti cal form of religion. Defeat of Know Nothings. The election, on Monday last, has placed upon the forehead of Know Nothingism in Georgia, the unmis takable brand of the popular condemnation. The ie* bke is signal, emphatic, and, we believe, final, Geor gia has recorded her voice iu characters of blazing light, against Know Nothingism iu all its odious features, both as regards its forms of organization in Secret Lodges, and affiliated Councils, uuited under a great central head, with the seoresy, the oaths, the obligations, the degrees and discipline, the grips aud signs and passwords, and as regards its leading and avow ed aims of National and State policy. The former, the mere paraphernalia of flummery and humbug inten ded to cajole, to beguile and to tie down the honest cit izen and deprive him of his free agency—the Utter, in tended to undermine and finally break down the Con stitutional bulwarks erected by the Fathers of the Re public, for the protection of the citizen of every clime and of every religion, who links his destiny with Repub licanism and religious freedom on our soil. Know Nothingism', in it inside forms and its outside develop ments —Know Nothingism iu its internal discipline and desigos, is alike rejected and condemned in Georgia.— The vote is hut an imperfect indication of the popular disgust with Know Nothingism : for, during the canvass it shifted its attitudes and changed its colors, and resort ed to adroit pal ations, in d iff.- rent localities in the state to meet every ex g-ney of the local sentiment. — It showed thus, in some counties, a factitious strength. Io some counties it was bolstered up by the popularity aud influence of men who, while professedly not sanc tioning its principles, allowed themselves to be used in it* behalf. Again, side issues were suddenly sprung up to dis tract the public mind from Uie'main question.. Preju dices against Gov. Johnson, growing but of past party rehiiioijs and party contests, were appealed to, ard with eff-ct. Misrepresentations and distortions of facts, in regard to the management cf the State Railroad, were plentifully circulated iu pamphlets and handb'lls, and voles were influenced thereby. But with ail these drawback?, the senlimeot of Georgia has been spoke n w?h crushing effect against Know- Nothingism. Georgia responds to the glorious voice of Old Vir ginia. She stands by her Seothern sister*. North Car olina, Tennessee, Alabama and Texas. She repudiates Know Nothingism, with its oaths and its obligations, its Northern associations, its proscriptive sentiments, and narrow minded intolerance, as uncongenial to interests, io cjvil and religious liberty’, and to Constitu tional rights. Now the prospect brightens, that the South may be come, on lb® paramount question of the day, “one par ty and one people. ’’ — Con. $ Rep. Baker County (Official.) GOVERNOR.

The steamship Star of the West, which arrived at New York on Sunday, brings intelligence of the election of Col. Kinney as Governor. The Colonel has issued his first proclamation, which is a brief and sensible* document. He pledges himself to spare no effort to procure from the government indemni ty for the losses at Greytcwu. The first number of the Colonel’s paper, the Central American, was issued at San Juan del Norte on the 15th of September. It contains the proceedings ot the meeting of citizens which elected Col. Kinney, and also the name# of the offioers of the new government. Among them we observe the name of W. H. Young as Government Attorney. This gentleman, we presume, is the Editor of the Central American, and is known to many ot our citizens from having resided here for some time, as Editor of the Evening Journal. Col. Walker has turned up again, and this time he is victorious. With a force of 150 men he defeated the government force of 400, which attacked him on the 3d. He has addressed a letter to Secretary Marey, justifying his own course, and very modestly instructing the Secre tary as to the proper course for the U S. government to pursue in relation to Nicaragua.— Sav. Cour. Later from Salt Lake. St. Louis, Sept. 29. The mail from Salt Lake arrived at Westport yesterday, bringing one month’s later intelligence. The train met Gen. Harney twenty miles this side of Fort Laramie, and the health of the troops was good. Lieut. Heath was killed at the battle of Ash Hollow. The IriWians tell in with a party of emigrants between Ash Hollow and Fort Laramie, and, alter shaking hands with them in a friendly manner, began shooting at them, wounding badly one ot their number. Black Babies —Barnum's Baby Show in Boston seems to have excited the good people ot that city to an unusual degree. But the oddest concomitant of th# ex hibition was Bateman’s rival show of colored babies, which threw Barnum’s altogether in the shade. A reporter thus alludes to one of the ebony urchins: “We nearly forgot it. The drollest thing of these baby shows, is a white woman with a black infant at the Bate man “Bazaar. How it happened, Mrs. Fowler or some other learned lady may be able to tell—‘to dis child,’ it’s all a mystery.” It appears that Mrs. Fowler was on hand in Boston, as well as iu New York, to show the beuefits derived from such expositions. We presume she did not allude to the physologieal mystery of “a white woman with a black in fant.”—N. Y. Mirror. Very Singular .—A wild man has been Raid to be roaming through the great Mississippi bottom, in the State of Arkansas. Numerous travellers and hunters have asserted that they have seen him, but none have ever been able to get near enough to give particulars con cerning this strange being. This creature is 9&id unmis takably to be a human being, over seven feet high, but with ail the shyness and habits of a wild animal. Yale College. —The present number of students in the collegiate department of Yale College is as follows : Se niors, 92; juniors, 109; sopbomors, 109; freshmen; 153 —total, 463. Stampede. —A regular stampede of negroes was made from this neighborhood on Saturday night the 15th inst. They were ten in number.— Charlestown ( Md .) News. Convert to Judaism. —The Rochester Democrat states that an American Protestant lady of that city, a few weeks since, entered the pale of Judaism, and last Sunday rhe was married, according to the Jewish ritual, to a descen dant of Abraham, . Profitable Railroad. —The annual meeting of the Hart ford arid New Haven Railroad corporation was held in Hartford on Wednesday. It appears from the annual re port that the earniugs for the past year hare been $730,’ 012; expenses and interest, $433,167. A semi-annual dividend of five per cent, and an extra dividend of five per cent, were declared, making fifteen per cent, for the year. Sixc of the Russian Fleet Destroyed at Sebastopol. According to the Courier des Etats Unis, the Russian flag counted at Sebastopol in the month of September, 1854, seventeen ships, 5 of 120 guns, the remainder of 84 guns ; four frigates of sixty guns ; four eorvetts or brigs 5 twelve steam-hips; and eighty two ships of inferior rank ; in all 108 ships, carrying 2,200 guns. This colossal Rrrnanent was destroyed by the Russians themselves, to prevent it from falling into the hands of their enemies. Death of Buffalo Chief. —One of the most remarkable Indians of the Northwest died on the 7th of September, at the great age ol about 100 years. Few visitors to the head of Lake Superior but have been struck bv the venerable and sedate appearance of Ke-Che-Waish-Ke, or the Buffalo Chief, the head and the most able chief of the Chippawa Nation of Indians—alike noted for his rare integrity, wis dom in council, power as an orator, and magnanimity as a warrior. He was confined to his Lodge only a week by sickness, pulmonary disease, and was buried one mile below Middle Fort, with military honors. Mexico. It would seem that the flight of Santa Anna having relieved Mexico of the curse of despotism against which its patriots took up arms, no cause remained for fur ther strife. That all who desired the prosperity of th# country could have united in measures to restore to it, peace and the blessings of rational freedom. But the signs are that the removal of Santa Anna, has only prepared the way for a struggle between, numbers of aspirants for bis place. Alvarez De Is Llave Haro y j Tamariz, Vidauri, and La Vega, each represents a fac tion and is supported by an armed force. The Liuten ant of Alvarez has already defeated a body of his ooun- I trymen with severe loss and surrendered the city of Zapatlan to pillage. Selfishness, ambition and ranco rous hatred seem to sway unbridled, the actions of the leaders, and the people, brutal, ignorant and demoraliz ed, follow them without reflection. Amidst the warring passions and appetites which desolate our unhappy neighbor, not a sign can be discerned of the restoration of peace, or the establishment of an enlightened and just Government, Later from Mexico* N. Orleans, Oct. 2. The steamship Nautillus has arrived with Browns ville dates to tbe 22d September. Gen. Castro was still in command at Matamoros.— Some of the garrison favor the plan of Vidaurri. Tha city is embroiled within, while the revolutionary force menaces it without. The besiegers numbered from 600 to 1,200, and demand an unconditional surrender.— Gen. Vidaurri is marching in that direction. San Louis Potosi was captured by the insurgents, \ and Giti. Guitian was killed. Tampico had pronounced io favor of the plan of Vi daurri ; and the people had driven out Gen Cassouva. i To Cleak Paint. — Smear a piece of flannel in ! common whiting, mixed to the consistency of j common paste, in warm water. Rub the surface | to be cleaned quite briskly, and wash off with pure I cold water. Grease spots will in this way be al most instantly removed, as well as other filth, and the paint wHi retain its brilliancy and beautv unim paired. Cleansing Window Blinds.— Soap or strong 503 p suds will destroy gr£en paint more readily than any other color; the lye has the same effect on oil paints that it has with groaef*. I have seen many painted rooms soiled by carelessness or ig norance of washerwomen, in the application of soap or strong spap water; when it dees not de stroy the paint, it may effect the laster.

For the Times & Sentinel. The Flight of Pam. I've taken my flight to my Northern home, The land of my triumphs and lame, The sunny South has no charms for me, And hated and scorned is my name. In old Virginia I found no rest, ’Twas the place of my fir t defeat; And the trusty knights of lanterns dark, Were slaughtered in crowds at my feet. To fair Alabama, in stealth I stole, And cautiously groped about— But my Noithcrn taint filled the astmoephere, And her citizens found me out. They said they scented my Hartford blood, And the Blue Laws I made of yore— And the Puritan sins of my early youth, Were thought of, and laid at my door. In North Carolina and Tennessee, My victory seemed complete ; As I strove with dark despair at my heart. To redeem my Virginia defeat. But my Freesoil platform they would not take. And proscription they would not stand— So anoiher disaster came over me there. And I fell with my secret band. It seem'd useless to struggle against such odds, For defeat was always my fate; But the tempter whispered—strike once more In Georgia—the Empire State. In every dark comer my lantern was lit, — I marshalTd my crew every where, — But—'twerc needless to tell the fatal result,— My enemies routed me there! Then away, away to my Northern home, The land where I sprang into fame— The sunny South, has no charms for me, And disgrace is attached to my namo. To the land of ismt, I take my flight, The Southerner curses my name ; And those that were lured to my Councils dark, W ill ever remember their sharne. Eufaula, Oct., 1855. SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE. ARRIVAL 0F THE STEAMSHIP PACITIC. New’ Yoke, Oct. 2. The steamship Pacific has arrived with Liverpool dates to September 22d, one week later than brought by the America. Gs-n. Simpson's despatches state that the capture of the Malakoff was effected at noon on the Bth, by French columns, under Bosquet, McMahon and Deesa rnating. The British column stormed the Redan, but after a j bloody combat was repulsed. The second attack was j organized the next morning, when the Redan wasevao* I uated. The loss of life was fearful especially among the offi cers. The Russians were expected to retreat to Perekop. They could not hold the North tide for want of provis ions. Nothing definite is known as to the next operations of the Allies. Four thousand to five thousand balls and immense stores of gunpowder were captured by the Allies. The Czar, in an address to his army, sajs : “I rely on your valour to repel all future attacks.” In a letter to the King of Prussia he says he will ac cept no conditions of peace dishonorable to Russia. The Czir, with three Grand Dukes, was equipped, with the intention of going to the Crimea. Nothing further from the Baltic. There are fresh reports of Austrian mediation be tween Russia and the Allies. It is reported that Russia will undertake to mediate between the United States and Denmaik. Markets.
