FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1855.
The Russell Recorder.
We welcome this handsomely printed and
ably conducted paper to our exchange list.—
Published at Salem, Ala., by Joseph 8. Perry,
at 82 per annum, in advance. Those interest
ed in the section it represents will ’find their
subscription a profitable investment.
The Hon. N. L. Hutchins.
We perceive, is recommended by it corves- j
pondent of the Augusta Constitutionalist & Re
public, to fill the vacancy on the bench of the
Supreme Court, of this State, should Judge
Starnes decline a reflection. We take pleas
ure in copyiug into our paper the communica
tion, as it will doubtless be read with satisfac
tion by the numerous friends of Col. Hutchins
all over Georgia.
Senator Dixon of Kentucky.
This distinguished old line W hig, like many
of his old fiends, has distinctly declared his in
tention to “co operate in fixture with the Dem
ocratic party,” a determination for which he
accounts in the following language, which we
extract from a letter recently written by him:
“ You are right in supposing that it is my <
intention to co-operate in future with the Dem- 1
ocratic party. The Whig party, with which 1
have so long acted, has no longer a politica |
existence. I have no party now but my conn- ;
try. To this, I shall not cease to be faithful. — i
T'ie American party, divided as tt is into ftw!
two great sectional parties, the one Northern
and the Southern, can Only injure where it,
would scree the country: for instead of strength- j
ctunr the national men of all parties, it can on- i
ly divide them in all the elections, when union I
and eonccrt of -.'ration are necessary to the wry I
salvation of the c wintry. As far as I can judge. 1
the Democratic party, although weakened ini
the free States, is still national, and still co
operates with the Southern Democracy, in op.
position to the Abolitionists and Free Soilei -
of the North, who, to destroy the institution
of Slavery, would rend tin* Union asunder
and burr beneath the ruins of the Conatitu’.o
the liberties of the country."
Thus cue by eno the Statesmen of the day
are acknowledgcing the nationality cf the Dstn
ocralie patty, and turning to it as the only, re
fuge for the country in this hour of .danger.

A Sweet Potatoe.
We arc under many obligations to Mr. W.
| O. Holliday, us Fayetteville, for the mammoth
! Sweet Potatoe, which we received from him on
yesterday. Such a present we have not receiv
ed since the first number of the “Examiner”
was issued. At the time we write, we have no!
scales to weigh this magnificent esculent; but
fried, or roasted, it will serve us a week or more.
We should like to know how many more such
have been cultivated by Mr. Holliday, and if
his neighbors have been equally successful ? If
! they have, the vicinity of Fayetteville beats cre
ation for potatoes.
1 Hotel Accommodations at Milledgeville.
We are pleasad to see that the hotel accom
: modations at Milledgeville, are greater than
j they have ever yet been at that place. The
■ Federal Union, in referring to the interest with
| which the coming session is looked to by the
j people, says :
' “There are more men of talent and experi
ence elected to the present Legislature, than
I perhaps any that have preceded it. The new
I Hotel and increased accommodations in Mil-
■ ledgeville will enable those who wish todo so,
I tb bring with them their wives and daughters
j and this will make the Session more pleasant
I and interesting ”
i In response to this, we are gratified at being
I able to state, that during the session, Atlanta
will be fairly represented at our State Capital,
and from what we know, we are almost ready
to wager that our young and rising city will
bear of the palm of beauty from her sister cit
ies, in the person of more than one of its /air
representatives at Milledgeville, during the ses
sion. So look out widowers, and bachelor mem
bers of the Legislature—guard well your hearts,
while you guard the interests of the State 1
, The Result of the Election Complete. !
. We are indebted to the “Southern Recorder,”!
j the only paper from Milledgeville received by
:us on yesterday, for the following results of
| the election held in this State, on the first Mon
day of the present month. As the returns are
taken from the Executive Department, they
may be relied upon as correct.
“The whole number of votes polled is 104,-
443. Gov. Johnson received of this number,
54,461. Judge Andrews 43,721, Mr. Overby 6,-
261. Gov. Johnson’s majority over Judge An
drews, is 10,737 ; over Andrews and Overby
together, 4,479.
The number of votes polled for Congress
men. were 102,600.
Mr. Seward's majority in the Ist district, is
1635. Mr. Crawford’s in the 2d, 593. Mr.
Trippe’s in the 3d, 896. Mr. Warner’s in the
4th, CB. Sir. Lumpkin’s in the sth, 3,317. Mr.
t'obb's in the 6th. 3,976. Mr. Foster's in the
7th, 212. Mr. A. H. Stephen's in the Bth. 2,-
729.
' The Senate is composed of 73 Democrats and
38 Americans; the House stands 87 Demo
crats, 61 Americans, and 1 independent Whig
—showing a Democratic majority of over 60 on
joint ballot.
Upon the question of Removal, it will be I
seen that Milledgeville is far ahead of her com- j
petitors. The whole number of votes cast is j
83,116. No Removal, 48,707, To Atlanta.
29.347. To Macon, 3,436. Milledgeville over
Atlanta and Macon, 15,934; over Atlanta, 19,-
360.’’
Upon a result so glorious, we cannot but re
new our congratulations to our readers. FOUR
THOUSAND, FOUR HUNDRED AND
SEVENTY NINE VOTES over both An
drews and Overby ; and TEN THOUSAND,
SEVEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY
SEVEN over Andrews ; are majorities for our
gallant “standard bearer,” GOVERNOR H.
V. JOHNSON, that we did not anticipate at
any period of the late exciting canvass. They
show, however, most * ouclusively, that the peo
ple were alive to tho dangers which threatened
the South, and the Constitution, and that, de
spite the malignant and dastardly assaults made
upon the Chief Magistrate of our State, they
reposed full confidence in his ability and integ
rity, and manfully, at the polls, set their seal of
condemnation upon his traduccra, as well as
upotx the falsely styled “American Party!”—
The jieople may well rejoice nt the result.
Subjects for Legislation.
The Constitutionalist & Republic, of Augus
ta, contains an article under the above head, in
which there tire many valuable suggestions, al
though there are a few from which we dissent.;
On ‘ Banks and Banking” we agree with the 1
editor of that paper, that the discussions of the j
i past twelve mouths, “will have prepared the >
! members of the Legislature to give this whole!
subject full attention”; and we also trust that I
there will be “retaliating legislation against
those States which have nullified the Fugitive
Slave Law." This can be done, and within con
stitutional limits. Beyond that point, no one.
we presume, desires to go.
A “re-organization of the Supreme Court’,
is also desirable- The ‘ Constitutionalist" juat
; ly remarks that,
I “The Judges of the Supreme Court are made
(itinerants to an oppressive degree, and their de
cisions necessarily become in a manner, saddle
Lugs decisions. They are kept travelling all i
I over the State, and required to sit in remote I
i points, inconvenient to books and to n thorough .
consideration of legal questions, and yet are re- j
quired to make their deeistone at once and on'
j the spot. What guarantee can the public have'
; of correct decisions under such circumstances'! i
i There ahonld be fewer term of Court, and they
I held at’fewer places.'’

«. common school system should" receive the at

State. XVe cordially, too, endorse the editor’s

Sale or Lease of the State Road—all of which
c • wo shall take occasion to comment on at a fu

The Democratic Party and its Opponents.
The “American” press, in more places than I
oue, makes desperate efforts to prevent those
old-line Whigs xvho co-operated with the Dem
ocratic party in the recent election iu this State
from continuing their support in the coming
i presidential contest. It is but natural that it
should make touching appeals to its old friends i
to follow, in the course it has chosen; but-we|
think it is mistaken in its estimate of those j
friends and the motives which have prompted j
their action in the recent canvass. Hatred to j
democracy is rooted and grounded in the very j
natures of its editors, and as long asvur party *
bears a name so obnoxious to them there is J
no prospect of their co-operation with it in any I
measure, no matter how much it promises for |
the South or the country. They have opposed i
Democracy from their youth up, and their prej
udices against it blind them to the perpetua
tion of the Union, the hope of which alone rests
in the hated Democratic party. Not so, how
ever with those intelligent Whigs who responded
so promptly, and with so much-credit to their
patriotism, to the call of Democracy for help
against the secret order which threatened the
Constitution of the country, and the peace mid
security that inseparably attached to that ven
erated instrument, unimpaired. They onco op
posed the Democratic party from principle, and
not from a traditionary hatred of its name; and
when the issues which divided them from that
j party had passed away; and when it contended
for nothing but what they could heartily on
dorse; they disavowed farther opposition to St
and seeing that there was no hope for the coun
try in any other organization, and that its poli
cy was all that they cotdd ask, they came out >
from their own organization, which they felt to i
i be unsound and insufficient fox- their purposes,
| and fought bravely under the banner of the
! Democratic party. They acted conscientiously,
and the country will uphold them in their noble
disregard for the shackles of party prejudice.—-
There is not a man of them but feels he has done '
his duty, and no lachrymose appeals, or biting ;
taunts, can drive them from the course they
hax*e conscientiously pursued.
We believe these “old line Whigs,” as they
are termed, understand fully the position of na"
tional politics, and will act in the future, aa they
have in the past, in comformity with the pr< mpt
ings of their clear sense of duty; and it is plain
enough which way that directs. A glance at
the position of the parties now organized may
not be uninteresting to those who are still dis
posed to question the sufficiency of the Demo
cratic party for the wants of the people.
It is a significant fact that the entire Free
soil and Abolition party at the North, make di
rect war upon the Democracy. Were other
proofs wanting, this fact would alone be suffici
ent to establish the purity of the Democratic
party upon the slavery question, showing, as it
I dues, that it alone stands between the abolition
! ist and the consummation of his hopes. They
propose fusion with the “American" Party, and
with all other petty organizations that with
mushroon rapidity, have sprung up at the North.
And for what ? To defeat the Democracy!—
They combined with any and every faction for
the same purpose, and now they organize a grand
scheme, which they call the Republican party
and invite in all the isms of the North to make
one grand attack upon the stronghold of the
South—the Democratic party. Do we want
proofs of this? They are abundant.
The New York Courier if Enquirer, a. rabid
free-soil sheet, in speaking of the ways and
means of securing the objects of its party says:
“The first duty of all who wish to take th*
Government ont of the hands which direct it, is
to break down the Democratic party.”
To break down the Democratic party, it in
sists, is absolutely necessary; and the first great
object of the Republican party, as openly avow--
cd by its leaders, is just what the Courier & En
quirer recommends—the breaking down of the
Democratic party 1 The attempt to do this
was first made by the organization of the
“American” party. Henry Wilson, who was
one of the founders of that party ; does not
hesitate to declare the purposes for which it was
organized. In a recent speech he says of it :
I “ Gentlemen, within ayoe.r and a half a new
: ]>arty sprang into being, and that party
i wished to carry the country. It united trifh
! the anti-Nebraska sentiment hi 1854. and aided
' in sending some sixty or seventy members cf
I Congress tfho are opposed to the extension ,’f
I sla very; but the South demanded that the Arner
! ican party should be a proslavery organization.
I saw last winter, gentlemen, in Washington,
that an effort was made to enforce the Ameri
can party to bow down in abject submission to
the slave power ; and gentlemen, I made up my
mind that as a member of that organization, if
that organization undertook to be apro-dav. ry
j organization, if I had the power I would shiver
it into the thousand fragments. I came houu
from Washington, gentlemen, resolved to d > ■
what I cou.d to save the American party from |
becoming a pro-slaVcry erganimtior.—to tstve ■
it from annihilation.”
Here then we see that the original intention ;
; of the “American” organization was to “unite*
j with the Auti-Nebraska sentiment*” a sent!-;
! ment opposed to every principle of Democracy.
; and the very first step it made was to elect j
■ some sixty or seventy members to Congress’’ ;
’ over the heads of Nebraska Democrats I How ,
much Wilson and his followers expectel fr :n '
■ the “American” party, may be gather;! fr t
’ the rage he exhibited when it was attempt ’■
!-to make it a pro-slavery party." He detcr-
i mined to “rhiverit into a thousand pieces; '
‘ and be did so at Philadelphia. One of the shat- ■
! ’ tercd fragments was brought South, and tree
• j to the instincts of its progenitors, commenced
i| n war upon the Democracy. The people of the
i South, however, understood the matter, and ev.
f! erywhere, Democrats and Whigs repudiated
■ i the remains of Saturn’s half devoured offspring:
I and told these men who had brought the thing

iition—Republican party. No man will, with
the lights before him, dare deny this. And
yet we still see Southern men and Soathcm
presses, threatening and cajoling by turns; those
Whigs who have stood by the Democracy to
come out from them. For ourselves, we can
not appreciate the patriotism of those who com
bine with the Republic;’.:! party in effecting its
main object—the overthrow of the Democratic
party. To us, it looks a litllQ queer to see
Southern nun striking blow after blow, in echo
,of the abolitionist and free-soiler, at tho Dc
itfocracy. whqjx they candidly acknowledge that
it is die only barrier to the accomplishment of
their designs'
la view of this state of facts, “ old-linc
wbigs" who have, in the late election, co-ope
rated with the Democracy.” will be amused at
the efforts of the foe to win them over. They
feel that in the hands of the Democracy rest the
preservation of the Constitution and the rights
of the South, and will never strike at hands
thus employed ; but will stick by us til! the en
emies of tho country and tha Democracy, wheth
er hailing frem the North or South, are rout
ed “horse, foot, and dragoons.”
The Legislature'
The organization of this Body is command
ing the attention of thi-Ar-ti- Know Noth
ing and Democratic press at several points
of our State.
Prominent among those who are suggested
for President of the Senate, we see the names of
Bailey, of Butts; Morris, of Murray ; Lawson,
of Burke; Cone, of Bulloch ; Screven, of < ’bat
ham; Murphy, of DcKr.lb ; Lawton, of Dough,
erty ; Dabney, of Gordon ; Spalding, of Mcln
tosh; Wingfield, of Putnam; Guerry, of Ran
dolph ; and, for speaker, Stiles, of Chatham;
Phillips, of Habersham ; and Irwin, of Wilkes.
We doubt not-that the organization of both
branches of our Legislature, will be such as will
do credit to the State, and facilitate the business
I thereof. From the names suggested, as well as
I from others in the list of Senators and Repre
tatives, competent selections can easily be made.
But it is equally important for the transaction
of business, and its prompt despatch, that an
efficient Secretary and Clerk of
the House, should - besflected. These, with
.competent subordinates, wii! do more to advance
and perfect the business of /each branchy then
either the President of the’ Senate, or Speaker
of the House. Incompetent Clerk®, retard mote
than any other one thing, the legislation of the
State.

Letter of the Hon. H, A. Wise.
We presenj our readers to-fisy with tho let
ter of the Hon. Henry A. Wise, of Virginia
to the Anti Slavery Committee, of Boston, in
reply to their invitation to address them on the
subject of Slavery.
The Chronicle & Sent in :-i of Augusta seem‘
to think the letter is written in bad “forte?'—
Taste, ornotaste, it suit® the people of tlw
South, we venture to assert, better than any
thing else that could hare been written by that
sterling defender of Southern Rigiits sad South
ern Institutions. Henry A. Wise.
The invitation, in our opinion, was insultinr
to all Southern men to whom it was addressed;
its accompaniments, proposition to defray e>.»
penses, and pay One-Hundred and Fifty- do •
Inrs, to the lecturer, doubly so; and, to crown
all, the frank of the abolitionist Sumner, on a
letter addressed to the Governor cleet of Vir
ginia, was aa downritrlrt u. piece of Aboliti-n
impudence as was ever perpetrated. We re
joice that die gallant Virginian has responded
in the way he has done, despite its “bad taste,"
as tbo Chronicle & Sentinel has it.
We would like to see tho Southern States
man who would go to Boston at the invitation
of the Abolition herd there, to deliver a lecture
on Slavery, pocket Abolition go’; for it. and
then return to face his people in t ; Sou* ■! —
So will not Henry A. Wise, and so we hope
and trust will no one else.

Our citizens were cheered yesterday by the
arrival at this port, of the Arctic Relief Expe
dition. consisting'of the bark Release, Capt.
Hartsteine. and propellor Arctic, Lieut. Charles
S. Simms, from Lievely, Island of Disco, Green
land, September 18th.
The Release and Artic left New York 30th.
of May last, in search of Dr. Kane’s party, who
it was’feared, might hare had their vessel crush
ed in the ice, and so have been unable to return.
The relief vessels arrived at Lievely, on their
trip to the Northward. July sth. Thence they
coasted along the shore of Greenland, to lat. 78
38 N., touching at Hare Island, Upernavick,
Haklnvt Island, Cape Hatherton, and other
places. They were twenty-eig’it daya boring
through t c pack ice in Melville Bay. Thence
they crossed Davis’ Straits, and went up Lan
caster Sound as far as Admirality Inlet, where
the were opposed by a solid pack, which entire
ly stopped their progress. Then they passed
down the Western coast, examining Possession
and Pond’s bays. They were fast in the great
middle pack for several days, and had a f ir
prospect cf remaining there for the whiter; but
fortunately the ice, after a while, broke away,
and they were enabled to e cape.
The Expedition, passing still Southward,
reached Lievely on the 13th ult., having entire
ly circumnavigated the Northern waters as far
as the ice would permit. Captain Hartsteine's
vessels left Lievely on the 18th of September
for New York.
The last winter in the Arctic has been unus
ually servere. Many of the native perished
from exposure and starvation, having been com
pelled to eat their dogs. The extreme cold pre
vented the vsual hunting expedition.
The brig Advance, of one hundred and forty
five tons; » t sail in May. 1353, for Smith’s
Sound, under the command of Dr. Kane, who
was detailed to make exp.orations in the Arctic
regions by Mr. Kennedy, the Secretary of the.
Navy under Mr. Fillmore. The present Secre
i tary cf the Navy, M . Dobbin, entered upon
the performance of his duties before the Ad
vance sailed, and fully carried out the views of
his predecessor. On the 23d of July. 1853, she
arrived at Uperaavick, latitude 73 deg North,
on the coast of Gr enland. Nothing further
was heard of the Expedition from that time un
til vesterday.
The Advance wa left in Rensselaer bay, in
latitude 79 deg., where the expedition passed
two winters, The vessel was abandoned on
the 17th May last, (her flag and pennant flying,)
imbedded in ice fourteen feet thick, from which
it was found impossible to extrictae her; and
Dr. Kane and his men accomplished the remark
able journey cf one thousand three hundred
miles, on foot and iu boats, following the .ndeu
tations of the bays from Renssal; er to U|)erna
■ ick, where they embarked on board a Danish
v.?s! bonnd to Denmark. Thia vessel put into
Lievely. (Disco Island, where, by a remarkable
coincidence, she was falle in with by the
1.1 steine expedition, as above stated. As the
propeller of Captain Hartste no entered the han
dur, he espied a brig which immediately raised
i iie American flag. This ceremony was sup
posed to be a mere compliment from the Danish
vessel, but a whale boat soon left the brig with
Dr. Kane on board, and spread out “Pot Rock
Hag,” which had the name of Henry Grinnell
iqxm it, wb.er the truth flashed upon Captain
11 rtsteine that the lon absent explorers had
been found. Dr. Kane and his party accord
ingly embarked on board the Release and the

Schubart, cook. (French) who died from the
effects of amputation of his foot which was ren

t hreatened serious disaster. Fifty-seven dogs

The number of deaths among the crew is

of thest cold regions. The most intense cold
suffered was in latitude about eight -two deg.
North where the thermometer fell to sixty be

with instruments in making a survey of the in

then imbedded. The discoveries made by Dr.
Kane reach to a print Northward much further

and capes have been explored, and some of them

Commander Hartstein, when he accidentally
fell in with Dr. Kane, at Lievely (God Haven)
was about to proceed Northward to spend a se
cond winter in the Arctic Ocean. He deserves
great credit for his perse eranee, and for the
admirable manner in , hich he has carried out
the humane objects of the Government, which
properly sent him to relieve Dr. Kane from his
dangers. The propeller was found highly use
iul in navigating the intricate and narrow
openings of water among the ice. The highest

The Case oY Col. Wheeler’s Slaves.
DECISION OF JCDOE SANK.
Philadelphia, October 12 Judge Kane de-
livered an opinion this morning adversely to the
reception of the petition of Jane J ohnson to
quash the writ of habeas corpus in the case of
Passmore Williamson, pronoiraciug her to have I
no status in Court, being entirely without its |
jurisdiction.
The opinion is very elaborate, reviewing the i
whole case, and reaffirming his former opinion, j
He assertiil that the law of nations guaranteed |
the right of transit of slaves, and of even- oth- ■
er species of property, through territory where I
slavery was not recognized.
If the contrary principle was sanctioned the
time might come when the cotton of Louisiana,
the rice of Carolina, and the rum of New Eng
land, would be restricted from transportation,
without tho bounds of the Steto producing
them.
He maintained that the federal constitutution
recognised slaves as property, and up to 1830
slavery existed in the thirteen original States.
He said that Williamson’s duty then r.s now
was to produce Jane Johnson’s children.
Were the petitioner here to abide the action
of the courts she would have a right to be
heard, but being without the jurisdiction, the
records of the Court canuot be opened for a
stranger. .
On the conclusion of the delivery of this opin
ion, John Cadwallader, a member of the bar.
but not engaged in this case, in order to re
move a false impression fi’um the public mind
said from bis reflection of the circumstances at
tending the commitment of Passmore William
son, a proposition was made to amend the re
turn to the writ when Judge Kane replied :
“I will not receive an amendment now, but
will be prepared to receive it when the record
lias been completed.”
No such motion was subsequently made, and
the public impression that permission to amend
was refused is not warranted by facts.
Judge Kane replied that his (Mr. Cadwalla
der’s) impression was correct. He had been
prepared to receive a supplementary return from
Mr. Williamson's counsel, but none bad Itecn
offered.
Mr. Cadwallader suggested that an addition
be made to the opinion of the Court embracing
the remarks of a member of the bar not enga
ged in the case, and the reply of the Judge.—
He was induced to make the suggestion by the
best feeling towards a worthy but mistaken
man. hoping it might load to the adoption of
such a course as would end in his liberation.
Mr. Cadwallader is to embody the remarks he
made, when the Judge"wiil follow with his an
swer, bo aa to complete the record.
John M. Read, counsel for the petitioner,
said he had listened with attention to the opin
ion, but it bad failed to convince him that the :
petitioner and her children were not free the 1
moment they touched the soil of Pennsylvania. I
SS?* The last number of the Revue des Deux'
.Vo/iu'ci.cotitains a curious passage on the food i
of the ancients: The common notion is that
the ancients wore much simpler in their dishes
than we are—perhaps so, at least so in earlier
days—but, as we learn here, their viands were
more numerous; for, beside the dont'-stic ani
mals and the game eaten by us, they ate many
animals we never think of touching, except in
the last extremity. They did not disdain the
hedge-hog, the donkey, the cat, the dog. nor
that horseflesh, which as our school geography
used to tell us, ' is publicly sold in the markets
of Norway,” end which Isadora Geoffrey Saint
Hiliare has recently declared to be eminently
nutritious; nay, what is more, tiny considered
dog flesh to be equal in nutritive value to
chicken, and placed the donkey on u par with
the ox. Pork they consider the most indigesti
ble of al , and fit only for artisans and athletes.
It would be difficult, says the Leader, to pur
suade John Bull to dine off a surloin of donkey, i
or to ask the waiter to bring him "ribs of dog
with fried toadstools,'’ so strong is prejudice: I
we eat oysterg, and a few other mohisc’a, and.
shudder at the mention of snails. We eat mush
roons and truffles with gusto, and believe ail
other fungi to be poisonous. Nor can famiia
itself displace our fears. Find the Greeks bet

more succulent than ours.

’A’ue >.<>i:uixx»ie .Miss Murray on
American Slavery.
We find the following interesting announce
ment in the New York Times of last. Wednes
day :
We bear from pretty good authority that the
Honorable Miss Murray, the distinguised En
glish lady who has been traveling in the U.
Statec for some mouths past, is preparing a
book of observation and criticism upon our
people? and institutions ; and that she intends
to vindicate the institution of Slavery from the
alleged misrepresentations of Uncle Tom's Cab
in. Unless we have been entirely misinformed.
Miss Murray has come to the conclusion, as
the_ result of her personal observation, that the
social institutions of the Southern States are
decidedly in advance of those of any other por
tion of this country: that a higher degree of
culture and refinement is to be found there than
elsewhere in the Union : that Slavery is a bless
ing rather than a curse to the negroes themselves,
and that the picture of its cruelties and atrocities,
given by Mrs, Stowe in her celebrated novel,
are very gross exagerations, or so exceptional
as not at all to be taken into the account, when
forming a judgment of the institution itself.
She wiii make this a prominent feature in her
forthcoming book, and designs, we understand,
to enter upon a special refutation of the views
and representations of Mrs. Stowe.
“ Miss Murray’s book and especial}’ that part
of it which relates to this subject, will undoubt
edly make a sensation in this country us well
as in England. She is a lady of very decided
intellectual ability, of great accomplishment
and holding a position in English society which
will secure for her opinions on such a ’subject
the greatest consideration and respect. Mrs.
Stowe will undoubtedly find it necessary to
make some reply, and we are, therefore, likely
to have a brisk and exciting warfare on this
controverted subject.
The Tran-atlantic Telegraph. —In an ar
ticle which we published immediately after the
return ol the Telegraphic Expedition from New
foundland, —which article was written by a
gentleman not regularly connected with this
office, who accompaneid’ the Expedition in the
capacity of Reporter,—it was stated on the au
thority of Lieut. Maury, that a kind of plateau
existed, at the bottom of the ocean elevated above
the common level, on the route between New
foundland and Ireland, as if for the special pur
pose of facilitating the construction ol’a line of
telegraph, connecting the two Continents. In
his “Physical Geography of the Sea? Lieut
Maury alludes to this “remarkable steppe,” which
he says is already known as the “Telegraph
Plateau. The depth of water on it was repre
sented in’the article aforesiad to be in the neigh
borhood of “70 fathoms;” which however, was
a clerical error for 700 fathoms. Even this would
be more than three quarters of a mile,—a
depth by no means contemptible,—but we are
informed by Mr. G. W. Blunt, the Hydrograph
er, that there is no evidence that any such
plateau exists there.—Lieut. "Maury, in the
work above alluded to. speaks of the sounding
along the supposed plateau as being “probaolv
no where more than 10,000 fret,” Ten thousand
feet is about two miles, and there is a‘probable’
at that. On referring to Maury’s Sailing Dir
ections, dated Jan., 1854, we find a map of the
North Atlantic, but no soundings un the direct
route from Cape Race, (N F.,) to Cape Clear.
(Ireland.) Some distance to the southward ol
N ewfoundland, begining near the southerly limit
ol the Grand Bank, a line of soundings in the
directions of Capt* Clear is noted on the Map
averaging near 2,000 fathoms (hr 12,000 feet)
iu depth. None of the soundings are less than
1.650 fathoms, while one in the latitude of Cap
perhaps 500 miles distant therefrom
is 2.675 lathmos deep, or about three miles
Chis, to be sure, is better than six or seven miles
(the greatest depth ever reuehed by the plum
net.) hut cannot, on the whole, be considered
remarkably favorable.—J* ur. Com.

• 4 A Saddlebags Grocery.”
Among the presentments of the Grand Jury,
of Cass county, Go, the first week, we notice
the following:
“ The Grand Jury of the present week would
also most respectfully represent it as their opin
io:*. that something like e. saddle-bags grocery
has been kept by the Superior Court of ths
week, in the august personage of one of tie
constables, without license; wherefore we can
not eutely conclude that the Temperance cause
is highly esteemed, by that arm of the law, and
while we exonerate the Court from a knowledge
even of this newly established feature in the
traffic, still we must set our faces against nil
-addle-bag groceries, and mere especially when
kept by ticonstable in attendance upon the
Court. The particular constable we have con
clud'd thus to cannouiae, and hand his deeds < f
consummate effrontery aud shame, down to fu
ture constables, as a’well-marked instance ol
wilful contempt for Court. We did not set
