to Ihe Russian capital. A manifesto of the Aus
trian Emperor was expected to appear on Satur
day morning, but for some reason did nat.
g The “ Ides of August” will occur on the 17ih
of this month, a day which every one is looking
forward with the greatest interest. A declara
tion of war is not expected, but unless Russia
(evacuates Moldavia, a conflict between the Aus
trians and the forces of the Czar tnu.-i take place
in a short lime, Prince Gortsclgiknff, the Rus
sian Ambassador, is so engaged that he rarely
leaves his writing desk before three o’clock in the
morning. He iias given up all hope of bringing
Austria over to Russia, although such is not the
case at St. Petersburg. The attention of the dis
tinguished diplomatist is now directed especially
to Prussia, where discord, weakness and vascilla
tion still prevail. Singular as it may appear,
fight months ago the Prussian Government was
far more zealous in the cause of the Turks and
their allies titan the Austrians, the very reverse
us the present state of affairs. Jealousy is the
main-spring of these singular movements. The
Imperial crown of Germany is the ptize for which
the Austrian and Prussian champions are con
tending. The remaining thirty six German
States are far less power r ul, and always willing
to unite their fortunes with those of the party
ivhicii promises the most gain. A more pitiable
itiate of things could scarcely, exist.
, The Emyeroi of Austria will set out for the
Eastern frontiers of the Empire in the course o
k few days. It is believed tljat lie will place him
self at the head of his splendid army.
Baron Geringer lias been appo.nted Austrian
Commissioner for the Principalities, to co operate
with the Turkisli authorities. As there are many
Poles and Hungarians in the Turkish army, (now
80,000 strong on Wallachian soil,) it is evident
enough that they will not be allowed to come in
contact with the Austrians. The Russians have
entrenched Galatz as strong as the ‘Turks did
Kalafat. The works at Ismail and Ibruiia have
also been greatly strengthened. The Russian
flrlilla, consisting of tweuty-tive steamers and
fifty six gun boats, lies before the former place.
The English and French urc in full possession of
the mouths us the Danube.
Mention is made of a severe and .fficully bet ween
St. Arnaud and the Prince Napo eon, as also of
Ihe recall of the latter. The Russians have
lately received a reinforcement ul 13,01)0 men at
Trflw, the capital of tiie Trans-Caucasus. The
division was three months ‘en ruutc’ from Ru.-sia
It was feared that the Russians thus reinlorced
would prove too powerful for the disorderly bat
talions of Selim Pachj. There was a growing
prospect that the Persians would at last embrace
the cause of the Turks, and thus cause a diver
sion in tiieir favor. The Russian Minister at
Teheran, M. do Aniskotf, lately left tne Persian
capital, after having demanded of the Scltah to
declare for one side or the other. Sfjould the
Russians annihilate the Turkish army in Asia,
which does not appear improbable, Persia would
then be compelled to embrace the cause ot the
Czar. The Turks have lately murdered several
Ol their Polish and Hungarian officers.
A letter from Bulanin states that Selim Pacha’s
army consists of but 2 ),000 men, 12.000 of whom
are wretched Bashe Bowks, the must irregular
and worthless us all irregular--.
An Adjutant of Schamyl iiuJ been received at

presents. Nu constant be kept

would do well to send a strung detachment to
assist the Turks in Asia. Titer? ii ive been many

The ©cuiuSgce Bar.
Walk into the court house and tak° a view of
theOcinulgee bar. We presume you ar a strung
‘err* iiffwe-w-m-ifHr.td ucp you to the various mem
bers ot the legal fraternity. Tnere is a siispi ti
eion of business, and the lawyers are chatting
merrily, and enjoying the jokes cracked at each
other’s expense. Wheie is the Judge ?is your
fi-st enquiry. Suppose he has stepped out siwltuc
But wlmt is Rat plain-looking farmer doing oi.
the judge’* bench ? Whv he has assumed that
seat ? You see a shrewd looking lawyer I lining
to the farmer who has on homespun pants, and a
pair of brogans.. That lawyer, nuw. yon say to
yourself, is trying to get Ins hand in the farmer’s
pocket. You tremble lest the honest-looking
yeoman ho imposed upon.
“Rat-lap-tap,” goes a knife or pencil in the hand
of the farmer.
“Silence in court,” cries John 11. Fitts, sher
iff.
“Proceed with this case, gentlemen,” ejaculates
the farmer.
You are astounded. What can this mean ?
you ask. Is Ihe old fellow crazy^
Again the farmer speaks.
“The court will now deliver its opinion in the
niatter of the demurrer in the case of John Doe
vs- Richard Roe.”
The w hole bar prick ud their ears, and are nil
attention! You are still mnrp astounded as yon
hear a succinct exposition of the law in plain, for
cible language, so that a child almost can under
stand it. Vou are led on step by step, and there
is no resistiug the conclusions arrived at by Judge
Hardeman.
“Judge Hardeman did you say ?” you ask, as
vou .Mart Irotn your revery. “Ah ! well, y-e-s,
1 ‘spose that is the Judge—a wonderful plain man,
but a blamed good lawyer!”
Yes, friend, that is Judge R. V. Hardeman,
and not a country cracker. Physiognomy and
phrenology are certainly great liars in si me ca
ses, we are all compelled to admit.
Judge Flardeman, as you see, is rather above
medium size, lias small blue eyes, sandy hair, a
low forehead, and florid complexion. lie is an
honest man and a gentleman. His cliaiacteris
ticß as a judge are firmness, without crabbedttess,
quick insight into every point raised, and the
rarest impartiality and honesty of purpose we
have ever seen upon the bench. He is affibie
and courteous in bis intercourse with the bar, and
particularly so to the younger members.
Your attention is excited by the immoderate
but half-smothered laughter of a squad who sur
round a large and imposing-looking man, whose
head is inclined to be frosty, but whose bright
hazel-eye gleams with all the fire of youth. The
jukes are repeated, and besides the members of
the bar, the outsiders and the jurors even, are
leaning forward to catch the scmtilatioiis of wit
as they corrurcate Irom the eye, the mouth and
very toss of the head of the centre of attraction.
The laughler becomes too loud, and a gentle re
proof from the court ensues. A quiziea! look, a
half smothered utterence, or a knowing wink
throws the court offhis dignity and he joins in
the laugh.
Order is restored.
“Jeremiah Wilkins vs. Peter Simpkins,” calls
file court. “Foster for the Plaintiff, Cone for
the defendant.” The first witness lor plaintiff is
called, and examined by plaintiff’s attorney, and
ex judge Francis H. Coue rises, and lor a mo
ment looks at Ihe witness to see what manner of
man he is. Then begins the examination, and
all that witness knows in favor 0 f defendant is
bound to come out, nolens volens. And it is not
often Cone resorts to the harsh manner of exam
ining, either. But he adapts himself to the hu
mor of the witness, who is drawn out impercepti
bly to himself.
“Go and iwn, Mr. Witness.”
Anothor one is put upon the stand by plaintiff
and a question is asked him. Ere witness can
open his mouth, he is electrified by the word.
“Stop !”
Then follows one of the ablest arguments
against the legality of the question you have ev
er listened to. L’gal lore is poured out from a
fountain which seems inexhaustible. Statutes
are quoted, cases cited, English law commented
upon, civil law expounded, Mosaic law elucidated
and deductions drawn (rum all in such a manner ‘
as presents to your eyes a living law library, with j
the mental stomach of an ostrich to digest the j
whole, and give nourishment to the point raised, i
If you are not a lawyer, this may not be so in- j
teresting to you as the speech now about to be j
madaMo the jury.
Cone is not an orator, is the strict sense ;
of the term. We have none at the Ocmulgee
bar, which is composed of lawyers, not orators.
Judge Cone has not the passion, the language",
tbe imagination, the fancy, the swelling intona
tion, the impetuous torrent of feeling, necessary
to constitute an orator. But what difference does
it mase ? He is as successful as a mail can be,
and he is a good speaker. He addresses the ju
ry. Now they are convulsed with laughler, and
now they become serious. Now they listen to
a keen and searching analysis of the testimony,
and now they hear an exposition of the law, made
simple enough for the capacity of one who is not
a lawyer. Now they are puzzVd to know wheth
to laugh or to be serious. You see that the
speaker’s words are taking effect—his object is
a ccomplisbed.—[lndependant Press.
Proscription-
Some of our cotemporaries think it a small bu
siness for a great Governor of a great State, like
Georgia, to refuse to advertise in a Whig paper,
especially when there is no other pap-r in the
neighborhood where such advertising is required.
It is doubtless a small business, but those who re
j Ter to it should recollect that this picayune pro
! scription is in perfect keeping with the character
of the man. If we are not mistaken about one
i of the first acts of his administration was to dis
continue most, il not all, the Whig papers direct
ed to the Exeeuttve Department. YVe were not
surprised at this, for we believed his Excellency
to be a man too much wedded to error,to willing
ly tolerate the presence of truth-telling Whig
| journals—ill -y conveyed silent admonitions
i which his surcharged conscience was loth to
! confront. To revel in the darkness of the Fed-
I eral Union and its kindred prints is a luxury which
I the biiter party vindictiveness of the Governor
i would nut. forego for the most refined and eniight
| ened reasoning of the ablest mind in the universe.
What more reasomble, then, than that his Ex
■ celleniv should nurture with the pap of official
! patronage these pels of his congenial mind ?
| Ilo>v could they he expected to swear by the
j Governor and the Administration, it they were
■ not paid for it. The Whig press of Georgia has
no equivalent to render for Governor Johnson’s
patronage. ‘They prefer tube proscribed by.rath

A Contrast.
Last season when Jacksonville was nearly de
stroyed by fire, intelligence of the calamity was
brought to Savannah by Capt. Postell of the
steamer Seminole. In a few hours after the
news reached us, some $3,100 in money besides
supplies of provisions, were voted by the City
(Council and suoscribed by our people, and Capt.
King of the steamer Wclaka was deputed to con
vey them to our unfortunate friends on the St.
Jo ms.
A few months later, when Savannah is visited
by pestilence, and hundreds of her children are
stricken to the earth, Jacksonville not only clos
ed her port against us, (lor which as a precau
tionary step we do not complain.) but she at
temptsto exclude us (rom the river St. Johns, and
even fires upon tins same Capt. King and steam
er Wclaka, who but a short time before had been
to them the messenger of sympathy and assis
lance.
In addition to this, when Jacksonville was vis
ited by small pox last winter, a really contagious
disca-e, ne never thought of cutting her people
off, but continued to supply them with the mails,
and to furnish them with means of transporta
tion for themselves and their produce.

Crossing the Line. —The Platte Argus, of
the 20th August, learns from a reliable source
thaton Monday and Tuesday.(the 14th arid 15th.)
one hundred Missourians passed at Salt Creek
Store, with the view of becoming citizens of the
territory of Kansas. We are informed that the
tributaries ol Grass Hopper, Muddy and Rock
Creeks, are well timbered, unsettled and fertile
as any portion of the territory. The adjacent
counties of Missouri will send one thousand ol
their young men as soon as the hemp crop is se
cured.
An Insult to Southern Merchants. —The
New York Tribune thus pointedly insults South
ern Merchants who do business in New York :
“ Southern merchants do indeed keep away
from New York for the reason that they can’t
pay their debts ; there is no doubt that if the job
bers of this city had not trusted Southern traders
for the past three years, they would be a great
deal better off'than they are.”
This is from an intellectual madman, named
Greely, and of course needs no comment.
