Whig: James W. i of a heavy debt hanging over DeKalb county, of which the act of the Legislature, organizing tiie county of Fulton, made it obligatory on u-> to pay our proportionate share. And wjtile upon this subject we would call the attention of our Inferior Court te an examination of the funds collected from fines, forfeitures. Ac., which amount lias been extremely large in DeKalb county, and which funds should lie properly ap plied to the payment of the county debt, thereby lessening our proportionable share. We have, through committees, examined the list of children entitled to the benefits of tho poor school fund, and have made out and furnished the Ordinary with a list, and made such other altera tions ns we thought necessary and proper.

Wc have learned from good authority that sixty I or seventy dollars have been collected from fines j imposed upon defaulters by our road commissions, ! ami that twenty-four dollars of this sum is now in the hands of J.

The Journal, of Friday, reports three new deaths, and adds that “the whole number of cases under treatment, of whites and blacks, is over one hundred l A state of things truly alarming and distressing.” Grits in Georgia.—Hon. W. C. Dawson, in answer to inquiries respecting the crops in this State, writing to the New York Her ald, under date of October 9th, says that the corn crop will be sufficient for home con sumption, and not more. The cotton crop one-tbird less than the last year, fully. The potatoe crop almost a failure. The Prohibitory Liquor Law seems to have fared differently in the interior of Pennsylvania from what it did in Philadel phia and Pittsburg. The farming districts are said to have voted against it generally. Lancaster county gives 2,000 majority against it. Dr. H. M. Clemens, a representative from the county of Jackson, in the last Tennes see Legislature, was shot and killed in that county, last week, by a person with whom he had some previous difficulty. Dr. Graham received the verdict of the jury in his case with equanimity. He was smoking a oigar, and observed that he did not see how a jury could bring in such a verdict. John N. Govix, Hunt.

We heartily cen- wilh thorn in their presentments, but take . •.isiori, at the same time, to add one other -touree to the list—and that is carrying concealed wr.moir*. Thi® evil has so long been winked at (ai though prohibited by express statute) that the very boys in onr streets are armed with pistols and bowie-kuiver. We call upon the civil officers to look to this evil iu the execution of their office, ac-l all Order-loving citizens to do the same, and thereby put a stop to the evil, and save much loss of life. The Grand Juries of the first and second weeks . peak iu complimentary terms of our new court om in the City Hall. We agree with them : it deserves the compliment. Before bidding his honor. Judge Warner, adieu, to would present him our thanks for the faithful ; ::d dignified manner iu which he has performed the duties of his office. And to Col. L. C. Simpson, (who, during this week, in consequence of the engagement of L. E. Blcekly. Esq., Solicitor-General, has performed the duties of that office.) we tender ouiTsincere thanks lor the prompt nud courteous manner in which he has attended the calls of this body. All of which we respectfully submit. A. G. Ware. Foreman, T. G. W. Crussell, A merchant in New York, named Bonco, has been bound over in New York in the sum of 820,000, to answer the charge of fit ting out a slaver for the coast of Africa. Another Collision, A collision occurred on tiie Georgia Rail road, on Friday night last, between the up and down passenger trains, by which the two locomotives were smashed to pieces, and one of the engineers somewhat injured though not dangerously. None of the pas sengers were injured. We learn from the New York Journal of Commerce, that Leutze, the celebrated his torical painter, has just completed the painting for which he is to receive $10,000 from the hands of a private gentleman of New York. The subject is, “Washington at Monmouth,” and the picture is said to have been designed and executed in a man ner which will add to the fame of even Leutze. Haynes Convicted.—The Superrior Court of this county has been engaged for several days past in the trial of Dennis Haynes, for the murder of Griggs, near thi9 city, some months since. On Saturday the jury re turned a verdict of guilty. The members oi the “Hatter’s Protective Union,” of which John N. Genin is not a member, created some disturbance at the meeting in New York held for the selection of a candidate for Mayor. That he “docked his journeymen two dollars per week” was insinuated by the protectives in e noisy manner. I9L>The Savannah papers of Friday con tain a series of resolutions passed unani mously at the laat meeting of the City Council, expressing the grateful acknowl edgements of the citizens of Savannah to wards the Hon. H. V. Johnson, for having generously proffered pecuniary aid from the State to relieve the sufferers by the yel low fever in that city. Well Merited.—The New York Times says that one of the escaped seamen of the Arctic shipped on board the steamer Atlan tic the other day, but just as the steamer was about sailing, he was discorered by Capt. West, who took him by the collar and marched him ashore, saying he wanted no such men to go to sea with him. Washington Monument.—It is stated says the N. Y. Herald that the managers of the Washington monument, which for some years past has been languishing on the banks of the Potomac, are about relinquishing the work, and turning it over to Congress. Wc highly approve of this determination. It is only proper that if al national monument is to be constructed, as a mark of the venera tion in which the memory of Washington is held by the American people, that it should be a national work, recognized by the approbation and appropriations (which is quite as necessary) of Congress. It will then be a monument worthy of the name, and just as much the act of the people of the United States as if the present plan of drum ming up subscriptions could be successfully carried out. And it will also have this ad vantage—that it will then be a national work. It is rumored persistently, says the Paris correspondent of the New York Com mercial Advertiser, that the Emperor nearly fell a victim to an infernal machine at Bo- logne, Circumstantial details are given, of wires leading from his bed to a galvanic bat tery in the room below, and of their discov ery by a maid. Street Preaching.—The New York Ex press of Monday last says, yesterday after noon, the “Angel Gabriel” appeard before the City Hall, as advertised. He was im mediately received by the attentive police in that vicinity and politely escorted out of the Park. He was treated with similar courtesy in other parts of the city, and no doubt made fnlly aware that public sentiment at persent demands that he should make his visits as “few and far between” as possible.

This, however, is nothing to the great violin in Germany, which was so large that it required two horses to draw the bow, one stroke produced a sound that vibrated six weeks! Mr. Ws. W. Story, son o? tbe late Jus tice Story, now in Italy, has finished a stat ue of his father. Queer Custom.—In Japan what ai guest leaves on his plate is wrapped in a piece of paper and given him to carry away. Mr. Catherwood, the distinguished artist, was on board the Arctic, on his return from a brief visit to England on private business, and is probably among those who were lost. Mr. Catherwood will be recollected as the artist who painted the beautiful panoramas of Jerusalem, Lima, and other cities; also as the companion of the celebrated traveller, John L. Stephens, on his visit to the ruins of Palenque in Mexico and subsequently to Central America, * <-i' Jfc j-lti-- ~ C'rim.

The circumstances of the case are briefly as follows: It appears that a gentlemen has been in the habit of calling on the wife of the party referred' to, at a time generally when the husband was en gaged at business. His visits became so frequent as to arouse the suspicion of an Irish servant girl, and she discovered him several times in her mistress's chamber, she resolved to mention it to the sisters of the injured husband, who being satisfied of the truth of the statement, made known the facts' to the husband, who at once returned to the house and proceeded to his wife’s chamber, where his worst fears were realized.

A despatch to Sir George Samson, Gov ernor of Hudson Bay Territory, narrates the discovery of the remains of Sir John Franklin and company, who were starved to death, at Spring Fifty near Fox River. The Afrieo’a Sews, It will be seen by the European advices, by the steamer Africa, which we publish this morning, that the startling news of the annihilation of the Russians intha Crimea— the slaughter of twenty-eight thousand soldiers—capture of guns and sinking of war ships—surrender of Sebastopol, and other brilliant achievements, as brought by the Baltic, have at last turned out to be a magnificent humbug. The allies, it seems, have “a hard road to travel” before them yet before they shall be masters of the Crimea. The jingling of bells and huzzas of the multitudes in the English and French cities, over the snppossed most heroic achievement in the annals of modern war fare, most have sounded rather malapropo about the time the true reports came to hand.

London, Tuesday, Oct. 3,1854. Saturday’s steamer for the United States must still have been in sight of England when the long desired, anxiously expected news of tbe first battle in the Crimea reach ed London. The intelligence was, a battle and a victory. The government was the first this time to receive the news. It came in the form of a telegraphic despatch from Lord Stratford de Radcliffe, English Am bassador at Constantinople, to Lord Claren don, Foreign Secretarv. It was dated Con stantinople, Sept. 23d, and forwarded by her Majesty’s Consul-General at Belgrade, date o A. M. It was under date of Sept. 30th, as follows: The entrenched camp of the Russians, containing 50,000 men, with a numerous artillery and cavalry, on the heights of the Alma, was attacked on the 20th Instant, at 1 P. M., by the allied tsoops, aud carried by the bayonet at half-past th-ee, with a loss on our side of about 1.400 killed and wounded, and an equal loss on the side of the French. The Russian army was forced to put itself in full retreat. as-suranee, given in some respectable quar- al tors that at midday the guns of the Invalides would put the matter beyond a doubt. Mid day passed, but still the canon of the Inva lides were silent, and then doubts began once more to gain ground. On the Bourse the speculators for the rise began to hesitate till just before the closing of business, when it was suddenly announced that the cannon were actually ir ing. This news was gen erally believed, and the effect of it was eles- trical. As if with one common accord, hearty cheers were given by the whole of the assembled crowd, and many immediate ly iefc the hall fully impressed with the be lief that the fact was now beyond all doubt. It soon turned out,’however, that the guns fired were not an imperial salute from the Invalides, but the practice of the artillery at Vincennes; and thus the hopes of the Pari sians were once more dashed. I have taken some pains to ascertain the truth, and I have reason to believe that up to five o'clock no official confirmation of the fall of Sebastopol had been received, either by the French government or by any of the"foreign embus- j sics. In all official quarters the same doubt j still exists. News has indeed beenreccived | winch appears to give some sort of eonfir-1 nation ■ l the fact, but it does not place tho \ koff; and until the telegraph stations had been seized by the allies, each subsequent step in the progress of the invaders would he reported with the utmost speed. What ever effect may be produced on the purposes of the Czar by the disasters he has experi- - •- -■ mat enced, he cannot conceal from himself the character of his armies has been ruined beyond recovery by the defeat on the Alma. In Wallaehin the Russian generals had a difficult task to perform—being exposed at distance from their supplies, to the assaults of an enemy whom they could never reach except at a time and place of their own choosing. In the Crimea, on the contrary they were close to a vast storehouse amply provided with every necessary—their posi tion had been selected and fortified with the utmost care—and, like the Turks on the Danube, they were only called upon to make a stout defence. Yet, when the Czar’s forces are again tested, and under circumstances peculiarly favorable to their exertions, the onlj insult is immediate and decisive defeat. WeA I not undervalue, however, even in thorn j, a resistance which cost the allies so many brave and devoted men. The price we have paid for our success is heavy enough to compel us to respect our adver saries.

If the victors pursued the routed enemy to the forts on the north side of the harbor, it is more than possible that they may have successfully stormed them, and the fleet and city would then have been exposed without defence. The confidence of victory, and the rivalry of the three allied armies must havo kindled a spirit to which nothing could appear impracticable. Sonte- thingmust always depend, on such occasions, on accidents which may either favorer ob struct the efforts of tho attacking party; but in the absence of any unlooked for difficulty, the storming of the forts on the north of Sebastobol seems no more improbable than many similar daring feats of former wars. emy was estimated from 45,000 to 50,000 infantry.

Menschikoff occupies the field outside the walls of Sevastopol, with 20,000 men. The Russian garrison had burnt the for tifications of Anapa, nnd marched to the scene of action. Tho struggle recommenced on the 25th ult., and continued when the courier left on the 27th ult., at which date the Allies were within ten miles of Sevastopol. The Allies occupy Balaklava, are in com munication with the fleet, and command the proaches of Sevastopol, tt is doubtfully rumored that tho second line of defence of the Russians had been carried. The latest dispatches say that the Rus sians were completely shut up in Sevasto pol, and confirm the rumor mentioned above that their second line of defence had been carried. The allied army and fleets completely invested Sevastopol, and Menschikoff had been driven within its walls with the wreek of his army. It is rumored that Austria will consider the Czar’s prolonged refusal of the four conditions of the Vienna Conference as a Casus Belli. Messrs.

The Chronicle of this morning, after in vestigating the sources from which we deri ved the intelligence of the fail of Sebastopol The Russians have been totally defeated on j remarks that there were many details of the tho river Katcha, after several hours' sail- j story which savored rather top much of melo guinary conflict. They were purs'irid to the trenches before Sebastopol, now become untenable. The allies took all the forts on th bank of Sebastopol harbor, right The surrender of Sebastopol is reported. later date than Despatches of one day’s the above give additional details ; but the details vary, moreover, though the despatch es came from various quarters, they can all be traced to the same source, viz: the Tartar who brought the news to Bucharest. The French Ambassador at Vienna, M. de Bour- queney, has telegraphed it to his govern ment ; the Turkish Embassy at Vienna has telegraphed it to the Turkish Ambassador at London, but neither the English nor French government has received the infor mation from their own agents. None of the London papers have received the news from their own reliable correspondents direct. Vienna, Monday Night, Oct. 2. Advices from Bucharest, of the 30th ult., state that a second Tartar from Constanti nople confirms the intelligence forwarded at noon. Some details vary, others added. Fort Constantine was blown up. The other forts, with two hundred cannon, were taken by the allies. Twenty-two thousand Russians were made prisoners. Six Russian line-o?-battle ships were de stroyed. Prince Menschikoff, with the remaining ships, withdrew into the inner harbor, and dramatic effect to be implicity adopted, and asks why the news sent to Omar Pacha should not have beer, simultaneously sent to the English and French governments. Still, adds the Chronicle, there can be little doubt that by this time the desired success has crowned our efforts, and. at. all events, it can only be postponed a few days longer. Tiie retreat of Prince Menschikoff with his army would amount, in fact, to abandoning Sebastopol to its fate; and, although very little is certainly krown of the capabilities of the place for defence, we are at least, as- snrd that the term fortress ir- very inaccu rately applied to it, and that it could not of fer a prolanged resistance to the arms of the allies. Tho hope of tho Russian General would be no doubt, to receive reinforcements sufficient to enable him to advance and re lieve the town ; but when we consider that 20,000 additional troops, including a strong force of cavalry, must already, have joined the allied commanders, we may feel satisfied that they will give an excellent account of whatever hostile armj' may be brought to interrupt their operations.
