Cmstihdimtilist fc Htpnlilir. JAMES GARDNER, JR.,) and : Editor!. JAMES M. SMYTHE, ) Al <U STA, GA~ WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOV. 12. ' THE LARGEST CIRCULATION IN THE STATE. CT7~ Sw first page Daily and Tri-Weekly. Governor Cobb's Inaugural Address. Although it has been some days since the In augural Address by Gov. Cobh was laid before our readers, we fee 1 inclined to make a few com ments njx>n some portions of it. We were ex ceedingly gratified at that part in which he al luded to the Western & Atlantic Railroad. We quote his language as follows: ‘‘The State Road constitutes the only excep tion to this general remark. This work, in its origin, gave promise of great advantages to the State, in developing the resources of the vast and interesting section of country through which it passes—and in forming the most important link connecting the western waters with the Atlantic • oast. In the realisation of these anticipations, we find ample compensation for the labor and capital which have been invested in this impor tant enterprise. It now depends, in a great measure, upon the fostering care, enlightened judgment, and unbending firmness of the repre sentatives of the people, to render it a permanent monument of the wisdom and forecast of its patriotic projectors. 1 ’ We are pleased to see that Gov. Cobh mani lests so zealous a desire to see this great work maintained and carried out by the State. We aie al:.o pleased with his views upon the subject ol education. Ihe true and ]>ennnueiit pros perity of a republican State, depend upon the proper culture of the minds and morals of her |HH»ple. There are some portions of this address to which wo feel hound, by a sense of public duty, to express our dissent. Alluding to tin- late Coin ) rorni.se, he says : I hat ( oniproinise was based upon two im portant principles: The first recognised the great American doctrine of the right of every people, in the organization of their State govern - ments, to determine for themselves, whether or not, they would have the institution of slavery as a part of their social system—a principle dear to every republican heart—and one upon which rests the whole fabric of American institutions— thus repudiating that other doctrine so justly odious to the people of the South—of flic right and duty of Congress to reject a State applying for admission into the Union, because her Com btitutiun tolerated the institution of slavery.” 1 here is no doubt that the principle was re cognised, that new States might lie admitted into the Union with slavery, or without it, as the people might determine for themselves at the tune of applying tor admission into the Union as a State, lint the principle of tquut rights teat not recognised, nevertheless. The people of the non-slaveholding States can goto New Mexico oi Utah, with their property of every kind, with out hindrance or disturbance. Does the Com promise recognise the right of the Southern slave bolder to go to those territories in a similar way ' Mr. Cobb, and every intelligent man. who ever read the Bills, knows that it does not—that the Bills recognise the right of the slave to contest the right of his owner to hold him, as a slave to labor and service, in the courts ol the territories. The slaveholder, therefore. . ... icgt ui going io mem, subject to the hazard of a lawsuit with his slaves. Slavehold ers will not go to them under those circum stances. What a mockery, therefore, it is, to say in the Bills, that they may come in with slavery, or without, as the people may determine lor themselves at the time of applying lor admis sion. The most effectual preventative to the removal of slaveholders to the territories, is in corporated in the Bills, and then, the deceitful, cheating words are put there, that the people may determine lor themselves, when applying lor admission into the Union, whether they will have slavery there or not. What would any man, not an idiot, expect the result to be, wben slaveholders would scrupulously stay away from, and anti-slaveholders alone would move to the territories ' How then, can Mr. Cobb say of the Union, as lie does in another part of his address, that it is ’ a Union of sovereign States, cemented by a Constitution dispensing equality and justice to all its members 1 Constitutional Union men, now that the canvass, with its excitements, are over, will reflect calmly upon this subject. They will not be able to find the great constitutional equality and justice, which their leaders have lold them it contains. They will see in it no grateful opening of the territorial gates for South ern slaveholders. They will see that those gates are strictly guarded by anti-slavery sentinels, under this miscalled Compromise; yes, that the Demon of anti-slavery is there, wielding the sceptre ot its rapidly growing and overshadow ing power. But the worst feature in the whole matter is, Mr. Cobb's declaration, that this Com promise must be maintained as a final scttlemc.it ol this territorial and slavery question. Every one can see that the South has no hopes of get ting territory tor the extension of slavery, ex cept from Mexico. Slavery is now abolished in all those Mexican States. If then, they, or any of them, should be admitted into the Union, and tins Compromise, as a final settlement, should be the test of the right of our people North and South, to move there, what would be the conse quence ’ Why. Southern slaveholders would have the privilege of going there to measure strength with their slaves in the territorial courts. The North has outwitted the South, especially as Southern representatives have wil fully laid their wits aside, from timidity or some tliiug worse, and if this experimental stroke of the Compromise is to decide the question of Southern rights, in all future acquisitions ol territory, the South has been outwitted to her eternal shame, and future degradation and servile dependence. How expansive Southern benevolence and brotheily affection is ! It expands all over the Union, while the anti-slavery power is contract ing her limits , marking her boundaries, and say ing to her , ‘‘ THI S far shalt thou go and no FARTHER ! ! ” We would distinctly state, that, in making these remarks, we are not re-opening the issues which have been settled by the triumphant votes of the people. We believe that it is now gen erally conceded that the vox popult (the voice of the people) is the Barometer of Truth. In o ur judgment, this opinion must be taken with some grains of allowance. It is not true, when the people have been misted by selfish and ambitious leaders, in whom they reposed confidence. We believe they have been misled in this matter of the Compromise. We should be untrue to reason, to justice, to truth, to our country, and our God, if we did not say so. But, be that as it may, whether the vox jmpuli is the voice of truth or not, it is the voice of power. The will of the people must prevail, and we bow to it, whether, in our opinion, it is wisely or unwisely expressed. Thus much we have thought proper to say in reference to Gov. Cobh’s Inaugural Address, to vindicate the truth, and not to re-open an issue upon the miscalled Compromise. The Arsenal. We are glad to see that our old friend, Colonel Tallcott, has again been placed in command of the Arsenal near this city. We are gratified at this, both because of his ability, in a military ca pacity, and the acquisition of our community, in him, of a valuable and public spirited fellow citizen. We think it is time that this section should lay in its claim for the dispensation of some greater degree of governmental favors. We should not desire them if the public service would not thereby be promoted. With the ex ception of two or three places in the South, our section of the Union has no public works belong ing to the military department of the govern ment. There is not, in the whole Southern country, a more favorable local ion for an Arsenal than this near our city. The Sand llills are as healthy as any s|iot in the Stale, and this would lie as convenient a place as could he selected for an extensive depot of arms. At least one hun dred thousand stands of arms could lie kept here to the greatest advantage. Abundant water power could he obtained, from our canal, to pro pel machinery necessary to keep them in repair, and our rail road facilities offer the best means of their early transportation, South and South west, to points where they might be needed. We, in common with the citizens of our sec tion, would he gratified to see this enterprise car ried out. It would be the more gratifying, as the Arsenal is imderthe command of one, whose gallantry was so brilliantly illustrated iu the re-, cent war with Mexico, ami who is so comjietent to superintend an extensive establishment of the character suggested. We briefly thrown out these views, and trust that the subject will be seriously taken into consideration, in those quarters, where the pow er lies to consummate so desirable an object. Melancholy. James B. Bishop, Jr., aged about 17 years, a son of one of our most worthy citizens, on Mon day morning last went on a hunting excursion, and his non-return in the evening, was a cause of much anxiety to his relatives and friends. On Tuesday, strict search was made for him. The last seen or heard from him was from a negro belonging to Mr. Delaigle, who saw him about 0 o'clock on Monday morning in the vicinity of bis master's plantation. Kvery exertion was made yesterday to discover him, without effect) until towards evening, when his liody was found in the field ol Dr. Garvin, surrounded by a pool of blood. It is supposed he accidentally shot himself, ami as bis gun was not found with him, " ii J *‘ - Ai.-4.i-. .«o uiUtavuiliig IO make his way towards home, and fell where his body was found. We deeply sympathize with bis bereaved parents. Thanksgiving. It will be seen by the Mayor's proclamation, that I Imrsday. the -7th inst., has been set apart by our City Council as a day of Thanksgiving and Prayer. Mous. Adrien. This celebrated magician opens this evening at Concert Hall, and will exhibit some ol hisas touisliing performances. Devon Stock. We had the pleasure, yesterday afternoon, of looking at four line heifers of the above breed, ini - ported by R. Peters, Jr., of Atlanta,and hrougnt to the city by Combs & Co's Express. They were in fine condition, and we think will make a valuable addition to Mr. Peters’ present stock, which, from what we can learn, for purity of breed and beauty of form, will bear a compari son with that of any private gentleman in the country. T. Butler King, the Collector at San Francisco, has brought the press and the merchants in a mass aliout his ears, for having put in suit a large number of forfeited bonds, given during the jiast two years, for the production ol certified manifests of clearances from American ports, of American goods which have been imported via the Isthmus of Panama, and iu which cases the bonds have been forfeited for unavoidable rea sons, in many eases, from non-recept of letter forwarded in proper time, and containing mani fests duly certified, and complying with all the requirements of the law. The merchants have held a meeting, and ad dressed a memorial to the Secretary of the Trea sury, and commissoned Mr. Macondry, one of the wealthiest men in California, whom failing health compels to return to the U. States, to bear it. The amount covered by these bonds is esti mated at not less than four millions of dollars. Novel Salute. —ln recent papers received Irom China, it is said that the British men ol war Cleopatra and Lily fired, at noon, on the last 4th of July, a salute of twenty-one guns each, with the "stars and stripes" at the fore, in honor ol the anniversary of our national indepen dence. The ‘‘China Friend,” speaking of the event, says it is the first time such a thing was ever done by any British vessel in Chinese waters. The circumstance is only cne of a thousand signs denoting the daily increasing re spect of all nations for the American republic. Consul to Havana.— We clip the following announcement Irom the National Intelligencer of the Bth inst: ArrOINTMENT BY THE PRESIDENT.— IV. L. Sharkey, to be Consul of the United States, at Havana, iu the Island ol Cuba, in place of Allen F. Owen, recalled. The People ol Columbus; in public meeting, have authorized the city council to subscribe 81.70,000 to the Mobile and Girard Rail-Road. This subscription, it is believed, will insure the completion of the road to Chunuenuggee. The Telegraph Case. —Judge Kane, of the U. S. District Court, in Philadelphia, on the 6th inst. ordered a decree in the case of the Morse vs the Bain Telegraph Line. The decree grants an injunction, but stays its operation until the ; Decree of the Court upon the report of the Master, provided, the Defendants, shall within] ten days give bond, with sufficient security to be approved by the Courts, in the sum of 515,- 000, conditioned that the defendants shall answer j ] and account to the complainants in such manner, ' as shall be finally adjudicated for all gains and profits, on such sums as the Court may decree ] recoverable, which the defendants, or- either of ! them, may receive at each and every station or office, either within or beyond the jurisdiction of this Court, for the transmission of messages in whole or in part over this line £of Telegraph within the jurisdiction, and what belongs to or is connected with the defendakt’s line of Tele graph, within its jurisdiction of the Court, from the date of this order to the time of the Decree of the Court upon the Report of the Master, and also to pay and satisfy all sums to which the ] complainants ruay be adjudged at Law or in Equity entitled'to recover by reason of the in jury done to them by the continuation of the in fringement of the aforesaid patents during the period, from the date of this order to the time o the decree last aforesaid. The decree goes the whole length in favor of the Morse Patents, as decided in the Bill and enjoins and restrains the defendants, their servants or agents from the further construction or use of the Bain Line. Thos. Dunlap, Esq,, was appointed Master. The Auric Expedition. —A dinner to Mr Grinnell, and the officers of the Artie Expedition, , was given at the Astor House, in New York, on Tuesday evening, by the English residents of that city. About one hundred and forty persons sat down, and the occasion appears to have been one of much conviviality. Mr. Henry Grinnell offered the following toast on behalf his father : “The Rescue of Sir John Franklin. May it nev er be abandoned until his fate be positively as certained.'’ Midshipman Griffin declared it his opinion that the search would be renewed the ensuing spring, when the Advance and Rescue would again leave this port under our tlag and under the patronage of Government. He de clared the willingness of every officer and man to re-enlist lor the expedition, and hoped, for himself, that he might be one of the party. Wo inter fionqthese remarks that the search is not yet abandoned. An object of much interest was exhibited at the lower end of the room. It was the Arneri- 1 can flag which Capt. Wilkes carried in his 1 antarctic expedition, and Lieut. De Haven in his arctic. It bore an inscription to the client that it was at the service of any one who would carry it farther. Solicitous.— The following individuals have been elected Solicitors Generals, in addition to those already mentioned in our paper of Satur day : P. F. D. Scarborough has been elected in the Southern Circuit: Joseph A. Thrasher, in the Flint; John J. Word, in the Cherokee; Thos. P. i Kaffidd, in the Oomulgee; Win. J. Peeples, in the Western; and John M. Weems, in the Northern. The Arctic Expedition. —The presentation of medals by the British residents of New York city to the seamen of the “Advance'' and 'Res cue'’ lately returned from lie- fw-arcti alter Sir John Franklin, took place on Thursday after- \ noon, on board the North Carolina, at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The medals were pre sented by Anthony Barclay, Esq., British Consul, and the ceremony was witnessed by a large in vited company, embracing quite a number of la- ' dies. In addition to the medals, a small sum 1 of money was given to each of the seamen. Slow Promotion. —Commander Jas. D. Knight of South Carolina, who recently died on board 1 the U. S. sloop of war Germantown, which he ] commanded on the coast of Africa, is represented j as having been an excellent officer, and was about sixty years of age. Commander Knight I is numbered 53 on the list ot commanders, the 1 second grade ; and at the time of his death he had \ been in the service ot the U. States thirty-seven years! Had he lived to the age of three score years and ten, he night perhaps have been pro moted to the rank of Captain—and allowed to command a frigate or ship of the line. Eclipses in ISs2.—According to the calcula tions ot Mr. Gibbs, the great Almanac maker) there will be six eclipses next year, three of the : bun and three ot the Moon. There will be a great eclipse of the Moon the 6th and 7th of January next, visible and total in this section. Duration 3 hours and 10 minutes. The Father Mathew Concert.— Miss Hayes’ concert at Niblo's, New York, on Wed nesday evening, for the benefit of the Rev. Theo bald Mathew, was not attended by such a nu merous audience as was expected. There were about a thousand persons present, but the num ber would have been much larger if the price ot tickets had been fixed at a lower rate than that asked, §2. As it is the good man will pro bably realize about §1,500. *§News. —The Baltimore Sun says: “The Le gislature of Georgia, met at Augusta on the 3d inst/ 1 his is news to us, and will be. perhaps, to our readers. A correspondent ot the Baltimore Sun, writing troin New-York, under date of 7th inst. says: “It is currently rumored that two Hungarian officers, feelingithemselves aggrieved at the letter relative to Kossuth, published in the X. York Herald yesterday, defied the proprietor to a mor tal combat, which was, of course* declined.'’ The Diploma of the Mass. Institute awarded to Ayer's Cherry Pectortal by Prof. Webster when Chairman of their committee on Chemi cals, is now on exhibition at the American Col lege in this city. It is set with the medalion awards of the three • great Institutes of Art in this country ; and also the Gold Medal of the Medical Institute at Na- ] pies. Surely this discovery has received the . honors of the great, as well as the gratitude of < the humble it cures.— Philad. Sat. Courier. History of Bologna Sausages.—A foreign I correspondent of the National Intelligencer, who ; had visited Bologna, in Italy, says: t “ Bologna being chiefly known to be through 1 its sausages, 1 took some pains to post myself up ( on the history of sausages as a branch of the fine i arts in that city; but all I could find on the sub- i ject was that there existed in Bologna a peculiar i race of dogs called Bolignini, which were fed and 1 AUGUSTA WHOLESALE PRICES CURRENT, NOVEMBER 12, 18 5 1.

We give place to the bil lowing extract: “ The rumor of Chevalier Hulsemann having demanded his passports, in case of a national de monstration in honor of Kossuth, is, as I inform ed you three days ago, a pure invention on the part of letter-writers and telegraphic newsmon gers. The truth about our relations to Austria is this: Prince Schwarzemberg, the Austrian Premier, has sent a despatch to Chevelier Hul semann,complaining very much at the course pur sued by our government, in regard to Kossuth.— The Prinee says, it was the letter written by Mr. Webster to Mr. Marsh, at Constantinople, which caused the Turkish Government, hacked by the governments of the United States, France ami England, to disregard the remonstrances ot Austria and Russia, and to deliver up Kossuth to the American commander of the Mississippi. “ Austria looks upon this act ot our govern ment as an ungracious one, &c.; hut refrains from all threats or insinuations. At all events, if Aus tria has any sinister views, she has not made them known to our government, though Che velier Hulsemann, who was instructed to read the despatches to tlie American Secretary #f State, may not have read the whole of them. At all events, our government is a government tie furto , and can only deal in realities. Austria has as much reason to complain of England and France as that of the United States. England i and Fiance are nearer, and have a direct influ ence on the destiny of Turkey, and it is absurd to suppose that Austria, in breaking off diploma tic relations with us, could continue them on any principle of honor or propriety with Eng land and France.” Powder Driven Locomotives. —We are in formed that Mr. Dagget, ot Koxbury, of- flying machine’’ notoriety, lias lately finished a model ! of an engine which he proposes to work with powder instead of steam. It consumes about two ounces of power per mile with the weight of four of five cars attached. It can he used on common roads, applied to common carriages, and it is said to he perfectly noiseless in its opera* 1 tions. We learn that several successful tests i have been made in the presence of two or three : scientific men and engineers, and that Mr. Lee, Superintendaut of the Boston and Providence Railroad, thinks favorably of the invention, and j has consented to lay the subject before the Direc- I tors of that road.— Boston Jour. Money Marrf.t, Saturday, Nov. Bth—The Pacific to-day took out $900,000, including §771,500 in American gold, and 25.304 sover eigns. An order lor SIOO,OOO in silver was not | filled in time for this steamer. The Insurance Companies reduced their rate temporarily, at the solicitation of shippers, so that the above was charged only 3 of one per cent; hereatter the rate will be *O. There is less inquiry for business paper, but no farther change 111 rates. There is sufficient capital here for all the real wants of the community, and the large exports of specie during the week can have no injurious erfeet upon business, except in disturbing public confi dence. The shipments of coin to the South lor the week somewhat exceed $500,000, and sar i thersums will go on Monday; all this however, and more, will be returned to us in Exchange. Foreign Exchange closed without mateli.ll variation from our rates quoted this morning, most holders remaining firm to the last. The demand for hills, however, was moderate, and parties wishing to sell bills at the last moment, were compelled to concede a decline. As most drawers were indifferent about selling, this was only done in a few cases.— Journal Commetee. (Telegraphed for the Charleston Courier.) Baltimore, Nov. 10—7.15 P. M. In the New-York market to-day, Monday. Cotton was unchanged, and sixteen hundred bales were sold. The stock on hand has con siderably decreased. Rice was steady,and Flour has declined six cents. Advices have been received to-day at Boston from Port au Prince to 23d of September, which state that th» Emperor of Hayti, has agreed to one year's truce with the Dominicans. The House of Representatives of Buenos Ayres , have elected Rosas Governor for life. General Oribe is considered a traitor. Baltimore, Nov. 10,4,30 P .M. It is now believed that the whole Whig State Ticket has been elected in New-York. Mr. Gardner Howland, of the firm of Howland & Aspinwall, died suddenly on Sunday in New- York. i The U. S. Steam Frigate Mississippi, has ar rived at New-York from Ginraltar. which poit she left on the 15th ult., with forty two Hunga rian refugees. Two most important witnesses in the Christi- 1 ana case, escaped from jail in Philadelphia yes- 1 terday. < The Boston Democracy and the Fugitive s Slave Law. —At the great Democratic meeting held at Faneuil Hall. Boston, on Thursday night] 1 to ratily the Democratic nominations for c elections which took place on Monday, in Mas- 1 sachusetts, resolutions were unanimously passed S endorsing the Baltimore platform of 1848, and as- t sorting that the Democrats of Boston “go for a a faithful execution of, and acquiescence in all the t Compromise measures settled by the last Con- ' Stress,” and that the “legislative enforcement of ' the second section of the fourth article of the 1 United States Constitution, which expressly re- 1 quires that fugitives from labor shall be delivered r up to the party to whom such labor shall be due, a is one ol the vital conditions of that compromise, f and was introduced, carried, and will be sustained 0 by the Democracy of the United States. ’’ I ARTICLES.
