I’i oin our Bi’eiiing Edition of Yesterday
The Petroleum Company.
W'c direct attention to the following extract,
from our cotemporary, the Chronicle ami Sen
tinel, concerning this company:
Georgia Petroleum Vai>or Stove and
Gas Light CoMPANf.—An adjourned meeting
of the stockholders of the company was held
yesterday at the rooms of the company in this
city, to hear the report of a committee appoint
ed at a previous meeting, to open negotiations
with the owners of the patents, Messrs. Saroui
»V Bosworth, lor the purchase of their right,
Ac.
The committee reported that they hud made
an offer to these gentlemen, which had been
accepted, and recommended the company to
close the negotiations. The report was received
and adopted.
We learn that nearly all the stock necessary
for the inauguration of the enterprise has been
subscribed. The terms of the contract with
Messrs. Saroni & Bosworth are considered fair
and equitable, and it is hoped that the organi
zation will lie be completed in a few days. A
committee was appointed to wait upon the dif
ferent stock subscribers and collect the amount
subscribed. Those failing to respond to this
call promptly, will be stricken from the list. A
few shares of the stock are still undisposed of,
and we recommend to those of our citizens
who have any spare capital to invest, to put it
in this company.— Chronicle # Sentinel.

depended on the
they/fladc this year. Permit to say, sirs, that it
is my' opinion, if there was not one pound of
cotton raised this year in the eleven States ex
cluded from the Union, it would be the most
fortunate thing that could possibly happen for
us. We arc not going to starve if we make no
cotton, unless we are all fools. We ought to
make corn, wheat, rye, barley, peas, potatoes,
turnips, syrup, and dried fruits, of all kinds—
including wines from grapes, blackberries, mus
cadines, «fce., Ac., and we ought to raise cattle,
hogs, sheep, goats, chickens, turkeys, ducks,
Ac., Ac. In short, we ought to be independent
of cotton. We can be if we choose. If God
Almighty was to send a blight upon the South
ern country and kill every cotton plant below
Mason and Dixon’s line, so that not one pound
of cotton would be raised the present year, it
would be a righteous judgment on the North
ern fanatics. As long as we make cotton to
keep tho cotton factories of New England busy,
just so long will they send such men as Sumner
and Stevens to Congress. We can whip them
into terms by making no cotton. We will be
their slaves until we do it. Let the philosophic
statesman ponder aud inwardly digest these
thoughts. Agricola.
The Ilooi*Ei> Skirt and Baptism. —At De
troit, last, week, a rather amusing scene took
place during the baptism of a young lady, by
the pastdr of the Tabernacle. The minister re
quested her to assume the dress peculiar to
such occasions, but she declined to take off her
hooped skirt; the minister told her of the in
convenience that would result from her obsti
nacy, but like a true female she persisted ; but
when she came to desend into the bath thciuflated
skirt touched the water and rose up around her
like a balloon ; her head was lost to the con
gregation : she was swallowed up in the swell
ing skirl. The minister then tried to force her
down into the bath, but she was kept above the
surface by the lloating properties of crinoline,
and was buoyed up so successfully that it was
after much difficulty, and many forcible attempts
to submerge the lady, the minister succeeded in
baptizing the fair one. Finally, it was effected,
to the relief of the minister and seriously in
clined audience,who could not keep from chuck
ling in their sleevcH, and laughing in their packet
handkerchiefs.
Tired ok Proclamations. —The Shelbyville
Union is growing weary of the President’s pro
clamations. It remarks:
It is said that the President is preparing an
other “peace” proclamation. We arc getting
tired ot the “ proclamation ” business, and un
less the President stops it, his reputation will
suffer, ns did a certain Alajor General John
Pope’s up iu Virginia some years ago. If the
President really intends to restore civil law, let
htm do so, iu so many words and then stop.—
If he does not so intend we can see no use in
talking about it. When he issues his proclama
tion let it be in plain English, and susceptible
of but one construction. The Radicals are
frank as to their policy, and there is no chance
to misunderstand what they mean. Iu this re
spect the President, might well imitate them. —
In times like these, rulers should be as frank as
they are positive.
Mk. Peabody on the “ Rebellion,” “ So-
Called.” —We oopy from a Massachusetts pa
per the following report of a recent meeting of
the Boston Board of Trade:
“ A meeting of the Boston Board of Trade
was called last week to consider what action
should be taken properly to notice, and do
honor to Mr. George Peabody, who Is now ou
n visit to this country. We are informed that
the President statod the object of the meeting
and awaited.its action. No one suggested any
thing; at length a Mr. Bond moved au adjourn
ment, and a Mr. Atkinson, in supporting the
motiou, denounced Mr. Peabody, in no meas
ured terms, us sympathizing with rebellion,
and as receiving the news of Federal victories
in joyless silence. The Board evidently agreed
with Mr. Atkinson, aud adjourned without any
other action.” (!!)

* Escape of a Ship.—Wc understand that the
' sliip St. Joseph, recently arrived here from
Liverpool, llad a narrow escape on the passage.
It seems, as the matter is reported to us, that
among the cargo was a box marked "Sodium”
which was placed on deck with instructions to
the effect that if there was any trouble with it
front getting wet, or. otherwise, to throw it
overboard. Soon alter getting to sea, the cap
tain took a dislike to this box, supposing it
might be something of the nature of lime, and
possibly might set the ship on Are. So he or-
a couple of old salts to pick it up care
fully, and throw it over the sterir. Instantly on
its striking the water a territte explosion oc
■ curred, and an immense column of water was
thrown up, filling all hands who witneßaed it
with consternation and amazement. Captain
Alexander is entitled to much pjaise for acting
promptly with the terrible stuff (probably nitro
glycerine), for had a stray block from aloft, or
a heavy sea struck the box, as it lay on deck,
the ship might never afterwards have been heard
from, —Boston Evening Commercial.

(ui-tDcckln Constitutionalist.
The Trial of Jefferson Davis.
The following article, froin the National Ittr
telligcncer, will.be read with much interest:
The present references to the trial of Mr.
Davis have called public attention to this sub
ject, which very naturally, iu a large degree,
interests the public mind.
J4e indictment in the usual form for
h*s been found by the grand jury iu the United
States Circuit Court at Norfolk.
Mr. Davis indicted under the aet of 17‘JO, un
der which the penalty, on conviction, is death.
He could have been indicted under the act of
July 31, 1861, for a seditious conspiracy, the
punishment for which is fine, not over U>,ooo,
and imprisonment, with or without hard labor,
not over six years.
- One of the most important points is the
drawinjAof the petit jury, who are charged
with of the pHsoner.
The jury is to he drawn according to lot, or
otherwise, according to the mode practiced in
the State for selecting juries for the highest
courts of law. The number of jurors to be
summoned is left to the discretion of the court,
as at common law.
The act ol' July 10, 185:2, repeals so much of
life apt of 1786 as requires, iu eases punishable
with death, that twelve peii# jurors lie sum
moned from the county where the offense was
committed.
Under the actol June 17, 1863, no person is
allowed to sit on the jury who was in any de
gree of complicity with the rebellion. This is
an act ot controlling importance, because it
insures that the trial shall be before a loyal
jury.
Mr. Davis cannot lie tried by any of his Con
federates. His late will rest entirely with his
political opponents.
The jury must bo unanimous, or there can he
no verdict. This is the invariable rule of the
common law, and has existed time whereof the
memory of man runneth not to the contrary.
The presiding judge can rule authoritatively
on questions ot evidence as they may arise iu
the progress of the the jury always,
In criminal cases, return a general verdict
guilty or not guilty, they are practically the
udges of the law as well as the fact, and there
is no appeal from their decision.
There lias never been any exception to this i
principle in the common law, except that iu
eases of libel it had frequently been determined
by the Court of King’s Bench that the only
question for the consideration ot the jury, in
criminal prosecutions for libel, was the fact ot
publication and the truth of the innuendoes,
and that the court alone was competent to de
termine whether the subject of the publication
was or was not at libel. And it was for this
ruling of Lord Mansfield that the celebrated
Junius so bitterly attacked Lord Mansfield.—
Lord Camden, the friend of liberty, differed
from Lord Mansfield, and the matter was finally
put to rest by the inexorable aet of Parliament
of 32 George 111, known as Mr. Fox’s aet,
which determined the law against Lord Mans'-
ileld’s judgment, by expressly recognizing the
right of the jury to determiue the facts and the
law of the cate bv a general verdict of guilty or
pot guilty.
The trial eau only end in one of three ways:
1. By verdict of guilty.
2. By verdict of not guilty,
3. By the, inability of Ihe jury to agree.
11l the event of this third alternative arising,
the llrst question which will arise is, whether
Mr. Davis will be entitled to bail.
The Constitution provides that “ in all crimi
nal prosecutions' the accused shall enjoy the
right to a speedy and public trial.”
In determining whether Mr. Davisafter more
than a year’s close imprisonment, would be
considered, in the event of the disagreement of
the jury, to be discharged ou fall, would he a
question of legal discretion to lie determined
by the judge.
By the celebrated habeas corpus act ol 31,
Charles 11., it was provided, 6, “4 hat every per
son committed for treason or felony shall, if lie
require it, the lirst week of the next term, or
the lirst day of the next session of oyer, and ter
miner, he indicted iu that term or session, or
else admitted to bail, unless the King’s wit
nesses cannot be produced; and if not indicted
and tried in the second termor session, he shall
be discharged from his imprisonment for sueli
imputed offense.”
It Is not likely our judges would hike a less
favorable view of the prisoner’s application
than in the rule furnished by this statute.
The serious question would be, how many
rifi ms of the court have passed since the pris-
Hfeatc*'flifirst arrested V His counsel would ii^
:v •'
HPlft'for tin' last twelve months in lho
PHHRrTirginiu, or at least might have done
A further provision of the constitution might
perhaps also, iu the event of a disagreement of
the jury, he invoked in behalf of the prisoner—
that one which sets forth as follows: “ Nor
shall any person tie subject, for the same of
fense, to be twice put in jeopardy or life or
limb.
The meaning of this rule is, that a defendant
is in legal jeopardy the moment a petit jury is
charged with the decision of his case. But
though there has been some difference of
opinion on the point, it may be assault that
whqn the jury are discharged from the further
and tinal decision of the Case, because of tlieir
inability to agree, the prisoner luay be held to
be tried anew. At one time in England, where
the jury could not agree on a capital case, the
judge, instead of discharging them nt the end
of the term, had them carted round the circuit
with him. This practice, however, iB exploded.
In case then, of the inability of the jury to
agree, the utmost that the prisoner could ask,
from that fact alone, would be the right to be
out of prison on bail.
Liverpool Market.
We are indebted to our friends, Maude A
Wright, fora copy of Robert Lockhart & Demp
ster’s weekly circular.
Liverpool, May 11, 1860.
Cotton. —The state of the market during the
past week has been one of the most extreme de
pression. The monetary panic with which bus
iness has for some time past been threatened,
has at last set in with a rapidity and intensity
quite unparalled, and during the past two days
business in all its branches has been almost at a
standstill. There lias been a good attendance
of spinners in the cotton market, such as would
lu ordinary times have ensured a large business,
but the pressure to sell has been so great as to
cause buyers to pause aud purchase only tor
their most immediate wants. In the meantime
the stock here increases, and the means of
holding it diminish day by day ; on Tuesday
the bank rate ot discount was raised to 8 per
cent.; yesterday the suspension of the oldest
and largest discount house in the kingdom
spread dismay on all hands and stopped dis
counting everywhere except at the Bank of
England, and to-day the bauk-rate has been
further advanced to it per cent. This afternoon
the reported suspeusiou by the Government of
the Bank Charter Act afforded some relief, and
there lias been a little demand from specula
tors, but only at extremely low rates, 12d. to
12%d. per pound. Prices of all descriptions of
cotton are so irregular that it is impossible to
give reliable quotations. We make American
descriptions nominally '%&. to Id. per pound
lower on the week, although in several cases a
much greater reduction has been submitted to.
Sea Islands have been in very poor demand,
and are much depressed at a nominal decline of
2d per pound. Other long staples have de
clined 3-2 d. to lKd. per pound, according to
description and quality. East India and other
short-stapled descriptions have met with scarce
ly any inquiry, and must be quoted Id. to
per pound lower. The business “to arrive ”
lias been within a very narrow compass, and
no quotations for American shipments have
transpired. The total sales for the week are
45,830 bales, including 21,970 bales American,
of which 38,300 bales are to the trade, 3,520 on
speculation, and 4,010 tor export. Import 150,-
951 bales, including6s,l24 bales American. In
crease of stock 85,800 bales.
Manchester Market— This market lias fully
shared in the general depression, aud values of
all descriptions of goods and yarns have con
tinued to decline, with scarcely any business
passing. To-day business is reported by tele
graph to be at a complete standstill. We have
been unabte, so far, to perceive any signs of
qurtaikuent of consumption,
p Money Market.— The panic among the new
“limited” joint stock schemes, to which we
have called attention for several weeks past,
culminated yesterday in the.'stoppage of Over
end, Gurney & Co. “ Limited,” with liabilities
said to amount to about £12,000,000 sterling.
The result ot this has been a complete collapse
of credit all over the country, aud the stoppage
of all discount facilities except at the Bank of
England. The bank rate of discount was
raised! on Tuesday to 8 per cent., and ou to-day
to 9 percent.
prain Market.— The grain market, with the
prospect of war on the continent, continues
very Ann-with a tendency to advance, which is
for tk6 present checked by the financial difficul
ties,’ Wheat must be quoted 2d. to Bd. pqr cen
tal jiesser on the week, with a moderate de
mand. Flour sells rather more freely than of
late, at an advance of Od. to Is. per sack and
barrel. Indian corn in good demand, aud 9d.
to Is. per quarter dearer.
General Produce. —ln the produce market bu
siness has been almost at a stand still, aud
prices of most articles are quite nominal.
Lard, with very little offering, and strong
advices from the States, commands rather high
er prices.
Tallow was better early in the week, but
closeß very heavy.
Rosin has been in good supply, and about
2,300 barrels, chiefly block, have changed hands
at last week’s rjtes.
Petroleum—ln very poor demand, at easier
rates.
Cloverseed—' The sales for the week are about
1,500 bags American, at 365. to 385.; for the
balance of the stock, which is supposed not to
exceed 1,500 bags, holders ask rather higher
prices.
Bark— No sales reported; prices unchanged.
P. 8. Saturday, May 12.—The suspension
j by the Government of the Bank Charter Act
| has produced a favorable effect upon all branches
i of business. Cotton has been in good demand;
! sales 20,000 bales, including 5,000 tales ou spec
ulation and for export, at per pound ad
vance for American descriptions. The advance
of the bank rate to 10 per cent., which was an
nounced at noon, has, howevdr, caused the mar
ket to close with a quieter tone. Government
stocks and almost all kinds of good securities
have experienced some improvement. Several
mercantile failures of considerable magnitude
have been reported to-day.
[From the Richmond Times.
The Irish Exodus.
The great Irish exodus which menaces tliede
population of Ireland is naturally the subject
of much anxious discussion. Ireland has about
two millions of inhabitants less than it had in
1848. The commencement of the fever for em
igration which has since assumed such gigantic
proportions, wits ascribed to the terrible famine
in 1647, which elicited the sympathy of Christen
dom. But Ireland is no longera country where
the population is in excess ot the productive
ness of the land, nor are the wages of labor too
low for the support of life.
In both of these respects the improvement in
Ireland lias been unprecedented since the Islaud
was scourged bv pestilence and famine in 1847.
And yet although the impelling cause has ceased
the emigration still goes on with constantly in
creasing rapidity.
The great mass of the Irish emigrants who
are flying from tlieir homes, and crowding every
Trans-Atlantic steamer, are not wretched, pov
erty-stricken peasants. The leading London
journals admit that they are, for the most part,
*i well to do farmers, or the children of well to
do farmers, whose pockets jingle with sove
reigns.” “Great farms,” they tell us, are in pro
cess of abandonment, llelds are exhibiting the
squalor of neglect, and Ireland is in many parts
suffering as the Southern States now are for
want of labor and from redundant lands. Those
who remain in Ireland are said, for the most
part, to remain only “ until their kinsmen in
•this country can remit them the requisite pas
sage money.”
The English journals insist upon ignoring
the true cause of this great and growing exo
dus. They ascribe it to those natural laws of
emigration, which have, at various epochs of
history, compelled nations and tribes to burst
their own.boundaries and overrun other na
tions. “Sometimes,” these journals compla
cently remark, “it has been the Gauls. Some
times the Huns, sometimes the Visigoths—now
it is the Irish.” Thirst for the pillage aud con
quest of the rich countries in the South of Eu
rope, the wonderful fecundity of the inhabi
tants of the vast plains and forests of the North
ot Europe, and the pressure of population up
on the means of subsistence readily explains
tbe barbaric irruptions which overwhelmed and
annihilated tUe Roman Empire. Bui these are
not the causes which are depopulating Irelaud.
The soil of the Emerald Isle is productive, the
climate is soft and pleasant, and there is no
land half so lovely to the Celt as that from
which the good St. Patrick expelled the dan
gerous reptiles except the hated Saxon. The
irishman deserts his much beloved “gem of the
sea,” and seeks a home iu the uncongenial for
ests of Canada aud our new VVestoru States, be
cause the harden of English authority and the
exactions of Church and State are too heavy
for him to bear. He leaves his dear sea-girt
home with a heart torn by conflicting emo
tions.
To him no country is half so lovely as Erin ;
but his heart is full of festering detestation of
flits merciless rulers. The Irish emigrant takes
with him eternal hatred of the “accursed Sax
on.” llis waking thoughts and his dreams
when he falls asleep after a day of toil, are of
the deliverance of Ireland from the tyranny of
England. The Irish exodus is the result ot ha
tred of British rule. Establish a republic in
Ireland, or give them the descendant of one of
their own kings to rule over them, aud thous
ands of Irish would return to the land from
which they are now living in countless num
bers.
To those who are so blind that they will not
see the true cause of the great Irish exodus,
Thomas DeQuincpy’s splendid narrative of the
“ Flight of a Tartar Tribe" would prove in
structive reading. There, is no great event in
modern history less generally.knowu, or more
striking tg. the imagination, than the flight'
toss Ibo bonn'UvSS ateppes »! Aigy.alAJragttfcii
Christian ‘thrones (’Russia) fdrCeH 'nuUTohs'to
seek refuge behind that gigantic wall which
the greatest of Pagan nations (China) erected
around its vast territorial boundaries.
In 1771, in imitation of the Childrenof Israel,
a nation of Kalmucks, growing weary of the
despotism of Russia, determined by flight to
escape the oppression of a power which they
detested. Secretly, and with amazing rapidity,
the plans of the Kalmuck leaders-were matured.
Placing three hundred thousand women and
children upon wagons or upon camels; collect
ing their vast herds of cattle, and first discharg
ing the tempest of their desolating fury upon
their own habitations, with eighty thousand
cavalry to protect their march, the Kalmucks
commenced a journey which was to end beneath
the shadow of the Great Wall of China. On,
on, for days, weeks and months, that vast
column of fugitives, relentlessly pursued by the
gloomy vengeance of Russia, whose troops hung
upon the rear aud skirts of the fugitive vassals,
and poured a destructive fire of artillery into
the dense masses of flyiug women and children.
When contrasted with this wonderful exodus,
the retreat of the ten thousand Greeks, and that
of Napoleon’s vast army from Moscow, sink
into utter insignificance.
Encumbered with their women and children
for nine months, that fearful flight continued,
each day’s march being marked by bloody bat
tles between tbfe pursued und the pursuers.
And it was not until, on a bright morning in
the month ot October, 1771,. that the Emperor
of China, who, iu the pursuit of game, had
reached a wild frontier district, lying on the
outside oftlie great wall, lmd his attention di
rected to a vast cloudy vapor rolling from the
westward, which, by degrees, expanded, mount
ed and seemed to be diffusing itself over the
whole face of the heavens.
Soon the mystery of this vast phenomenon
was solved ; far from the cloud, as it was scat
tered by the eddies of the gentle morning
breeze, there began to gleam the beads of
camels, and a mighty host of men and horses
in tumutuous array. It was, in tact, the Kal
muck host, pursued to its long-sought haven by
myriads of enemies, remorseless as the wild
beasts ot the country which they had traversed.
The pursuit was only abandoned when a heavy
force of Chinese troops assailed the pursuing
Cossacks and slaughtered them without mercy.
But for all the horrible sufferings of their mar
vellous march, and for the torture of hunger
aud thirst and persecutions of savage foes, the
Kalmucks, were more than rewarded by the
humane policy of a Pagan Emperor.
Oncol the most beautiful and fertile portions
of China was given to the surviving Kalmucks,
and they have long since become a happy, rich
and prosperous people.
He Was a Stranger and thet Took Him
In.—The Titusville Herald copies from the
Washington correspondence of the Philadel
phia Sunday Mercury the following anecdote:
“ Mr. Culver lias been so seldom iu his seat
in the House, that the doorkeepers lost all
knowledge of him. He lias not occupied Ills
seat more than three or four times since the
opening of the session. The oilier day became
down to Washington, and started lor the capi
tol. He attempted to pass the doorkeeper of
one of the entrances to the floor of the House,
when he was stopped with, “ No you don’t,
sir; none but members of Congress allowed
here.” Culver stated that he was a member,
and the wide-awake doorkeeper informed him
“ that was played out; be had been fooled be
fore, and he was now up to snuff.” He 6ent for
Congressman Moorehead, who established the
fact; yet the doorkeeper was not convinced,
and would not let him in until Mr. Goodenow,
the head doorkeeper, came and qualified Cul
ver’s claims.”
The Express Companies.— The consolida
tion of the National Bankers’ Express with the
three leading express companies of the country,
lias, it is understßod, been finally satisfactorily
arranged. In other words, the three great ex
press companies which, until recently, enjoy
ed absolute monopolies oftlie express business,
each in its allotted district, havenow combined
for the purpose of exercising an unit ed monop
oly, and have given the National Bankers’ Ex
press one-fifth interest in order to prevent com
petitition. For this the sum of $5,000,000 was
to lie paid, the American Express contributing
its stock at *6,000,000, the United States Ex

Adams’ Express putting iu its stock at *9,000-

happy and gratifying-results.” We have received over a
hundred reams of inch certificates? but no advertisement
is so effective as people themselves say of a good
article. Our fortune and our reputation is at stake. The
original quality an| high character of these goods will be
sustained under evtry and all circumstances. They have
already obtained a sale iu every town, village, parish and
hamlet among civilized nations. Base imitators try to
come as near our n&me and style as they can, and because
a good article caiupt be sold as low as a poor one, they
find some support from parties who do not care what they

Who would not be beautiful? Who would not add to
their beauty? What gives that marble purity and dis

city belle? It is no longer a secret. They use Hagan’s
Magnolia Balm. Itscontinued use removes tan, freckles,
pimples and roughness, from the face and hands, and leaves
the complexion smooth, transparent, blooming and rav

injurious to the skin. Any Druggist will order it for you,
