Augusta, for stealing. The night previous to his arrest, he had lodged in the same roon- with J. W. Vainer of this county, whom he relieved of fifteen hundred dollars. The Stone Mountain Hotel, lately destroyed by tire, has been rebuilt, and will be shortly prepared for the reception of visitors. It will be a supper house for the passenger train on the Georgia Rail Road. Mr. Buchanan and Lord Clarendon. There must be some mistake in the first telegraph* ie dispatch of the Canada's news, alleging that angry I words had passed between Lord Clarendon and Mr. Buchanan on the Central American question. Nei ther of these parties are likely to resort to such argu ments. Besides, there has been no important cor respondence between the two Governments on this ♦ subject since the President’s Message, which would provoke any extreme opinions or actions. Lord Clar endon’s speech in the House of Lords, stating that he had proposed referring this matter to tho arbitra tion of a third power, must be a revival Qf the old sug gestion. No formed proposition was ever submitted to this Government; but in a conversation between Mr. Buchanan and Lord Clarendon about a year ago, Lord Clarendon presented it as a mode of adjust ment. Mr. Buchanan replied then that there was only one potentate whom the United States would in any way consent to accept as an arbitrator, and he was Nicholas of Russia, whom England had made war with. It may be that Lord Clarendon has re cently renewed- his offer, and hence the allusion in his speech. Our Administration will not now ac-, eept arbitration.— X. Y. Tribune. Peace Proposition. tPeace measures arc progressing favorably. Pre- Yminaries of a Protocol were signed at Vienna, on the Ist inst., by the representatives of France, Eng land, Turkey, Russia and Austria, by which it is Agreed to open a conference at Paris within three weeks. Lord Clarendon will bo the English Pleni potentiary at the Peace Conference. The report that the Emperors of Russia and Aus tria will visit Paris during (he Conference is doubted. The Armistice already agreed upon will probably end in March. Paskievvitch is dead. The Peace Plenipotentaries are begining to as semble at Paris. American National Convention. Philadelphia, Feb. 23, P. M.—The Convention is at fever heat. Tho Southern delegates hold a meet ing this afternoon to determine on what action they will take. Feb. 24th.—Nearly the entire day has been spent in discussing a proposition to postpone the nomina tion of candidates for President and Vice President to a convention to be held in this city the 3d July next. It was finally laid on the tablo by a vote of 128 to 73. The Convention then adjourned till Mon day. World’s Infidel Convention. The last number of Lloyd Garrison’s Liberator contains a call for a world’s convention of Infidels and Abolitionists, to meet in the city of New York, in May*nerxt. Their call opens with tho following \ paragraph : “We the undersigned, desirous of promoting the improvement of our race, and believing that the doc trine of the divine authority of the Bible is one of the greatest hindrances to its improvement—and be lieving further, that this doctrine has no foundation in truth, and that a fair and thorough investigation Would lead to its speedy and general abandonment, invite all, in whatever part of the world they may dtvell, who feel an interest in tho matter, to meet us in New York in May next, and to adopt such meas ures as may he calculated to spread through the world what may appear to he the truth npon this important subject.’’ The New York Herald says, these deluded vision aries, who seek “the improvement of the human race” by abolishing the Bible and constitution and laws, and all the institutions which constitute the strength, the glory, the safety, and the hope of civilized socie ty, and mankind —repulsive and atrocious fanatics— arc hut the active auxiliaries of the Seward Holy Abolition Alliance. The convention is to lfcheld in New York, some time in May next, perhaps during the anniversary week of our religious societies. What a jubilee will be this ominutn gather via to our Foureritc philoso phers and socialist reformers, great and small! Tom Paine against the Bible ; Fourier against all the ex- j pcrience and teachings of six thousand years; the i Jacobin Club against the founders of the American Constitution ; the bats and owls of dark ness against the eagles of the sun and the doves of the ark ! There may he much to deplore but there is nothing to fear. Pierce at the Worth. A Methodist congregation of Newark, N. J., have erected a splendid church edifice which is to be ded icated on the Ith Sabbath in February. The Rev. Bishops Janies and Simpson, of the Methodist Church North, and Pierce, of Georgia, are to officiate. The •Spartj, Georgian says: “So anxious were they to secure the services of the latter gentleman that, after failing to effect it by several epistles, the church sent out the Rev. Mr. Cox, their pastor, with instructions to remain with the Bishop until his consent was obtained. This ho gave reluctantly, as we understand, entirely upon the principle of bringing about a better feeling, if possible, between the two great branches of the church. The movement we regard as an important one, and pregnant with good results, materially ns well as ecclcsiasticall}'. That, the same people who in effect deposed a Bishop for his connection with slavery twelve years ago, should now send hun dreds of miles to get another Bishop equally impli cated with the other to perform an act of holy con secration for them, looks very like a relenting for the past, and that a conservative spirit yet lingers among the laity of the North, despite the acts oftheir conferences, or their representatives sh Congress.*’ Touching Inoident. An affecting occurrence took place s£im> time ago iir a seaboard town in England. Six little children got into a boat on the beach and a mischievous boy shoved it off. The boat drifted away to sea before the children were missed. Terrible was the agony of the mothers when they knew it. A number of men went off in all directions, every boat was on the look out until far in the night. Daylight returned, and still there were no tidings from the helpless children; the day wore away, and still nothing was heard from them : they were either lo3t on the wide ocean, fS’ buried in its unfathomable depths. A Ply mouth fisherman, fishing early next morning, dis covered something floating in the distance ; he bore -down to it, and discovered it to be a boat, and at the bottom six children, all huddled like a nest of birds, fast asleep—God having mercifully given them that blessed solace after a day of terror and despair. He took them aboard and gladdened their despairing little hearts wjth the promise of taking them home. Between three and four in the afternoon, the fisher- man was seen in the offing, the l>oat astern. All eyes were turned towards him ; the best spy glass in the town was rubbed again and again, and at last they could fairly see that it was the identical boat. The news fiew through-the town—the mothers came frantic to the beach, for there were no children dis cerned in the boat; none to be seen in the sloop.— Intense was the. agonv of suspense, and all alike shared it with the parents. At last the boat came in and the word went round, “They are all safe and many a stout hearted man burst into tears, women shrieked with joy, and became almost frantic with their uosupportabl© happiness. It was, indeed, a memorable day; and a prayer, eloquent for its rough sincerity, was offered up to Almighty God, who in his infinite mercy, had sparred these innocent chil dren from the perils and terrors of the sea during that fearful night- Five of these children were un der five years of ago, and the sixth was but nine years old. The “German Immigrant Aid Society,” of which he is treasurer, was the recipient of the SIOO declined by Senator Toombs for his recent lecture at Tromont Temple, Boston. {ffy* Father Mathew, instead of being at tbeFejee Islands, as has been stated, is said to he in Ireland, having sometime since returned from Madeira, whith er he proceeded a year or so ago for the benefit of his health. Wc learn from the Cambridge Chronicle that Edward Tyrrell Channing, for thirty-two years Pro- I fessor of Rhetoric and Oratory in Harvard College : died on Tuesday night, of congestion of the lungs j aged about sixty-five years. I The Aldermen of the city of Chicago, a short time since, passed a bill making an appropriation for the purposo of providing themselves with gold-dead ed canes of the value of SSO each. The Mayor veto- j ed the bill, but ten out of fifteen members of the j Board re-passed it, and eight of them, furnished i themselves canes at the expense of the city. Wo learn from Missouri papers, that McKen dree College was burned down a few days since.— The students escaped without injury ; one or two lost their trunks of clothing and books There uns only $2,000 insurance on the building. isr* The Senate of Virginia, on the 11th instant, passed a bill to provide for the statuary already com pleted, and to provide for additional statutes for the Virginia Washington Monument. A blank in the bill remaining to be filled with the names of four per sons, from a large number of names proposed the following were elocted : Gen. Thomas Nelson. Rich- j ard Henry Lee, Gen. Andrew Lewis, and George Mason. The Kansas Freeman says that the officers j are rather puzzled how to apply a provision of the law, in that Territory, relating to the right of Indi- j ans to vote. The law says that Indians who have: “adopted the habits of white men” shall vote, and ; the difficulty is to settle what shall be sufficient proof j of such adoption. The last one suggested is that the “aborigine” shall he made to drink a pint of raw Kansas whisky. If he does it, he can go in ; 7 not ; he must stand back till he has acquired that valua-1 hie political accomplishment. Payments for the Crusader.

Harris, Esq., in Hancock county, on Friday the 15th inst., Mr, Al bert Winfield Seymour, aged 21 years. How dark and mysterious to us are the dispensa tions of Providence. This young gentleman, the pride of a doating mother’s heart, the idol of a fond sister and brother, had just entered upon his majori ty when the fell destroyer came, and with his “icy breath,” blasted all their hopes. The anguish of their bereavement cannot be written in words. Tic was endowed with a noble and generous hoart. Os him it may be truly said, he was amiable, dutiful, affectionate. Ilis remains were brought to Green cs boro for interment, and a numerous procession of friends and relatives followed them to the tomb. Died at his residence in Wilcox county, Ala., on the night of the 15th of Jan., Isaac Mixon, in the Gist, year of his age. The deceased was a native of'Darling ton District, S. C., but removed to Alabama while a young man. He connected himself with the Baptist Church at.an early age, of which he remained a consistent mem ber up to the time of his death. Far more than five years he was the subject of severe affliction which he bore with a patient and cheerful resignation. He faithfully discharged every duty which his position imposed upon him. All who knew him loved and esteemed him as a good and honest man. L. L. V. This is to certify that J, as one of the late Firm of W. A. Colclough & Co.—having sold my entire interest to A. B.

IHAVE just received from New York, Balti more, and Philadelphia, the most extensive as sortment of Valentines ever offered in this place, and every thing connected with them, such as Writers, Verses, Envelopes, Lace Paper, Ac,, and am prepar ed to fill orders, Wholesale or Retail, at prices from five cents to twenty dollars. J have invoked Ver.us, the goddess of beauty and love, and her darling Cupid, and they have gracious ly chosen for their retreats the Madison Book Store, and have commissioned their friend, Benjamin G. Liddon, as high priest of love, courtship and morvi mony. “The world is full of poetry—the air Ts living with its spirit; and the wares Dance to the music its melodies And sparkle in its brightness.” This spirit of poetry arouses our loftier train of af fections, which are borne upon the gilded wings of Cupid’s messenger, in the form of a Valetine, tosome fair friend breathing the pure sentiments of friend ship, esteem, and all the kindlier regards for those to whom we donate. It may, perchance, be received with silent approval, told only by the fair face. “Where eloquent blushes burn and fade, Rich with the wealth of warm emotion ; Or starry dimples mock the shade. Like jewels in a restless ocean.” Valentines are the ambassadors of thought, where language fails. They substitute, in glowing eloquence, the reading of the heart, by their symbolic meaning. Faithful to my trust, as a se vant of the public I am doing all in my power to further the interests of those youths and maidens who are suffering from an ; affection of the heart. To all, of every age, and of j every rank in life, T oiler a specific that has never j failed. Such is the wonderful power of the Valen | tines sold by me, as a philanthropist and conservator | of the tender passions, that none make love without j sending one as a pioneer. BENJ. G. LIDDON.

Burnley, Esq. It contains 1050 acres, more or less, about 150 cleared, the rest in the woods, and I hazz-rd nothing in saying, that some of this land is as good as any to be found in the county.— There are about 200 acres oak and hickory land, well adapted to the growth of corn and cotton. But to any one. wishing to engage in the Lumber business, this place offers rare inducements. There is a good SAW MILL, with excellent water privileges on the premises, and by a small outlay in fixing up the dam, any one of industry may soon realize the amount paid for the place. There are also, two sets of Mill Stones, which is an inducement to any one wishing to erect a Grist Mill. A good framed House with several Negro Cabins stand near by, for the ac commodation of a miller and hands. The market for lumber is good. The mill is two miles from Powelton, ten from Sparta, and six from Mayfield. Public roads pass by the the mill to each of these places, which bring them in direct commu nication. Tho route surveyed for the Rail Road from Wammton and Milledgcville is but a short distance from the line of the land, and if it is built, will make the tract almost invaluable. I wish to sell the wholo in a bo iy, but if desired, will sell in parcels to suit purchasers. Several clligible building sites, with good Springs, make a division quite practicable. As I am too far re i oved to make these lands avail able, my residence being in the Southern portion of the .State, I am determined to sell, and I promise any one in want of such a place, that by applying to me early, at Perry, Ga., they shall have a bargain, eith er for their own use or for speculation. - W. B. SEALS. Perry, Ga.rDcc. 28, 1855. Notice to Trespassers. I WARN any one against encroachments of any kind upon my land, in Hancock county, as des cribed above.
