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.

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.” (!!) An Aktificiai. Watek Spout—Nabrow * 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. „ M | yf— ’ ■-- Major Thomas Walton, of <Jen. Longstreet’s staff, and Capt. Harold B. Maury, of the 48th Mississippi, Harris’s brigade, were to have .fought a duel in Sunflower county, Mississippi, recently. The meeting was prevented by tfie arrest of Capt. Maury. I . (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 press putting in its stock at *5,000,000, and Adams’ Express putting iu its stock at *9,000- FOR SALE. - W,L, be sold, on Wednesday, the 13th day of JUNK, at Berzelia, ONE SAW MILL, ENGINE AND BOILER, and fixtures complete and in elegant order.
