MONDAY MORNING, JANUARY 9. 1854.
SPIRIT OK THE PRESS.
Saturday's Mail devotes its editorial columns to
a well prepare! summary of current events.
The Ptnni/ Poet has a leader upon its future

a« certain as any future event can be."
The Ktlquirtr publishes an nrtiele from the Wash
ington Union, upon Mr. Douglas' report on the
N'e'>raska question, {noticed Saturday in the Din
poteA ] Commenting upon this article, the Enqui
r-r expresses its pleasure to fiud that tho Adminis
tration avai's iiselt of the first occasion to throw its
whole weight on the side of the South in a contro
versy of extreme delicacy and importance.—
"From this perilous duty Mr. Polk shrunk and
General Taylor marched over to the enemy.—
Here U a Northern man, truer to the South than
iter own sons."
The Whig also has also something to say about
Nebraska. "Some doubts are thrown out, whether
or not the Administration will support a bill which
does not recognize the Wilmot Proviso us opera
tive in that territory. If not, and a schism ensues
between them and their best friends, [the Free
soilers, according to the Whig.] the consequence''
must bo disastrous." The Whig introduces the
f .Mowing extract from the Washington correspon
dence of the Petersburg Democrat :
"'Alien the bill comes up for action, you may
look ou' lor old-lashioued wincing and cavorting.
If the Administration support it, the Democratic
Fr<"> toilers wi'l buit the pariy iu a body. Squalls
a:eex;>ected."
—And concludes with the following from the
Washington Sentinel:
It KHW to us that the proposition to extend the
principles of the compromise of 1850 to Nebraska,
* i'.l force skulking politicians to show their hands,
and to come out plainly iu the face of the country,
it it bus that < licet, it wilt render a greatsi rvice t»
the country, 110 aiutter what its ultimate late may
be. .

IIOU3E OF DELEGATES.
Saturday, Jan. 7.
A message was received from the Senate, anr:oun
cing the passage of sundry bills already noticed in
their proceedings, which were appropriately re
ferred.
The Speaker laid before the House a communi
cation from the Secretary of the Beard of Public
Works, in answer to a resolution of the House, sta
ting that there have been expended of the sum ap
propriated to the Covington and Ohio Railroad
»8~,000, and that in the uext fiscal year there can be
judiciously expended, in addition to the appropria
tion already made, S-'.OOO, 00.
The communication was ordered to bo printed.
Mr. Maxloky presented the petition of the Ex
change Bank of Norfolk for a re-charter, which,on
his motion, was ordered to be printed.
The Speaker announced the following commit
tee on the part of the House to examine the books
and affairs of the Bank of the Old Dominion, viz :
Me-srs. Garuett, Skinner, and Campbell.
The engrossed bill to amend ttie chartcr of the
Dora Coal and Iron Mining Company, being the un
finished business of yesterday, was again debated.
Mr. Patrick withdrew his motion for recommit
ting the bill, and Mr. Bukord renewed it.
The House decided to recommit the bill.
Da motion of Mr. Smith of Kanawha, the House
took up a bill to amend the 16th section of an act
incorporating a company to establish a turnpike
road ironi the city of Richmond to Williamson's Ta
virn.
[This Turnpike Company, which owns the Brook
Turnpike, ha- been deprived of its toll* for some
mi nths. Their charter provides the mode of ascer
taining when the road is out of order, but prescribes
no mode Ly which it may be ascertained when it is
in order. It declares that when the road is found to
be out of order, the gates shall be thrown open and
no tolls shall be received upon it until it is put in or
der; but as there is no provision to determine when
it is in order, there is no authority to close the gates
bnd demand tolls. The road was declared out of or
der la-t summer, and the company ask now for an
amendment in their charter to give them the power
to charge tolls whea their road rUall be in order; and
this bill gives them that power.]
Mr. Mavo moved the indefinite postponement of
the bill, which motion was sustained by him and op
posed by Messrs. Smtth of Kanawha, and Ei.lyson.
Messrs. Mavo and Ellyson both referred to the
history of the proceedings in the county of Henrico
" ith reaard to the road, deducing opposite conclu
sions as to the justice of the case. Mr. Mavo con
tended that all had been fair and just, and that the
power of charging tolls ought not to be granted to
the company, which he contended had forfeited its
charter. Mr. Eli-vson deui< d that the charter had
been forfeited, and argued that the plainest princi
ples of justice demanded that the Legislature should
re-instate the company in its authority to demand
tolls and control its property.
Before the question was taken, on motion of Mr.
Staples of Patrick, the House adjourned.
A Jolli old "Bkick."—Cymon, of the Boston
Post, tells a etory of a staunch old pillar of the
church, in New York, who having imbibed too free
ly during his new year's calls, was r jeling home
wurd in; happy as a harlequin, singing snatches of
Bnehanalian verse, occasionally dolling his .antique
"tile," and huzzaing in the most patriotic manner,
when he met one of his brother churchmen, who
expressed bis surprise at such an exhibition; upon
which the jolly old "brick" replied:
"You see—hie—brother, the fact is, that 1 have
worshipped the Lord, faithfully aud true, for the last
titty—hie—years ; so 1 thought that I would now—
hie—take a day to myself!"

Mife to proceed with the distribution oi" tho "gilta"

Msyo's bridge, and being anxious to get to her resi
dence on Byrd street, between tith and 7th streets,
she determined to take a near cut, and for that pur
pose climbcd the small fence that divides the
Richmond and Danville Railroad lot from j4th
street. The reader will remember that the South
line of this lot is divided from the river by n high
and heavy atone wall, which finds iu Kastern ter
ruination at the abutmeut ot Mayo'* bridge. In
climbiog the fence her object was to pass along this
wall and thence by IJaxxU's mill homeward, but as
she stepped upon it she aiaggered, lost her bal
ance, and instantly therealter was precipitated to
its base below, a distance ot about tweuty-fivefeet,
crushing her left ankle so badly that it protruded
through the skin, and otherwise bruising and inju
ring herself so severely, that it is leared she will
not recover. As soon as possible alter the acci
dent, the unfortunate young lady was conveyed
home, and Drs. Brown and Bolton immediately
sent lor, who promptly attended her, and did all
they could to relieve her sufferings. When w.~
beard fromher on Saturday she was then suffering
severely. Of course the poor creaturo hus no one
to blame but herself lor her rni-ifortune, and we
trust it may prove a warning to others who have
been in the habit of making tbi-* wall n
to do so no more. The wonder to us 1?, that falling
Irom such a height she was not inuautly killed.
Between I and 2 o'clock Saturday, a consultation
of physicians was held, when an operation was de
termined upon, and shortly alter, Dr. Johnson, as
sure i by lira. Brown and Wilson, proceeded to am
putate the broken limb just abovetbe ankle. Yes
terday afternoon, on enquiry, we were glad to
learn that the pati'iut was doing as well as could
be expected. Miss Wilson is about 14 years of
age, and bad just obtained employment iu the
Cotton factory. Being dependenton her own exer
tions for a livelihood, we trust the benevolent la
dies of our city will see that she ueeds uotiiing that
can add to her comfort.
Valuable Invention—Commission
merchants and others who occupy tall houses, and
olten find it necesnary to remove beavv and lijht
goods from the basement to the fourtb'or ti'tb sto
ry above, will do doubt be cratified to learn that
Mr. I*. L. Hates, of Baltimore, ha-* succeeded in
inventing a Ught, cheap and handsome Hoisting
Mackinc, by which one man can easily perform as
much work as two can by the old method. This
machine is erected upon scientific principles, and
alter having beon thoroughly tested, is said to stir
pats every thing of its kind yet discovered in this
country. Attached to the wheel is a chcck, by
which it can be stopped at pleasure, adding great
ly to its convenience iu case of an accident. But.
i s greatest recommendation, iu our opinion, is the
amount of labor saved by its use, which, of itself,
must be it high recommendation to merchants and
others, when laborers Hre commanding such ex
orbitant prices as at present. Already we find
that two ot our enterprising business firms have
availed themselves of the advantages afforded by
this new invention, and many others will do so as
soon as they see its operations in the large eatab
luhruentsof Mr. E. Il.Skinkeron Karl street, and
the Messrs. Crenshaw, on the basin. By referring
to our advertising columns the reader will find the
notice ot Mr. Bates, who is prepared to supply
our business men with his new and improved
Hoisting Machine, at short notice ansi on moderate
terms.
iheOOr v—Norma.—The performance
of Norma on Fiilay night, was certainly a very
brilliant and triumphant achievement. Madame
I>k Vries excelled all her past efforts he.e. Her
Norma was indeed a superb performance. She
acted the character with great spirit and fidelity.
Sijnor Arnoldi performed Polliane with decided
credit to himself; and Coli.etti's Ornvtsso was
admirably done. Signora as Adclgi
sa, performed with accuracy and propriety, fiie
is a remarkably unassumiug and rather timid ac
tress. Her timidity affects her voice—producing
occasionally, a tremulousness, which in some pas'-
sages adds to its patboe; but is iu the general a
draw back, doing injustice to her powers. Her
tones are svvee: aud correct, and with a little more
boldness would have a greatly increased effect.—
Her personation of the part allotted to her Friday
night, won tor her the good feeling of the house.
We were mistaken übout I'ozzolini appearing in
Norma. He took no part in the Opera. The cho
rus was very fine and the Orchestra rendered the
delicious music of the piece with marked skill aud
sweetness
There wag a full house to wi-ne-s La Somnabul*
Saturday night, and the entertainment was very
fine. Madame DeVries in Amina elicited general
applause, and l'ozzolini was himself again, per
forming Elvino admirably. Arditi and his orches
tra delighted the audience with their superior ex
ec atioQ of the brilliant music of the opera, and elici
ted rapturous applause by their performance of
Jullien's lumous Prima Donna waltz.
Hard Joke.—Michael Ivunkles paid Eli
zabeth Murray a visit lust Friday, and wheu about
leaving, helped himself to a flannel shirt aud a
pocket handkerchief, that did not belong to him,
regardle.-a of the remonstrances to the contrary
ol his lair friend. To tiy the feelinsrs of the good
natured dame, Mike paid no attention to her calls,
but once out of her sight, he stepped into the wood
cellar of the same house, and raising up a log of
wood, deposited the wearing apparel under ir, and
then made his exit. Supposing that Mike intended
to retaiu possession ol the goods, Mrs. Murray ap
plied for a warrant, which was placed in the hands
of the Watchmen, who took him inte custody, re
covered the shirt and handkerchief, aud brought
him before the Mayor the next morning, when "he
was examined, admonished and then discharged.
Olk Bill.—Next Tuesday evening the
admirers, in our eily, of the great Norwegian vio
linist, are to have au opportunity of attending a
grand concert, to be given by himself and popular
assistants—Strakoscb on the piano, and that musi
cal prodigy, little Adelina Patti, whose sweet, en
chanting notes so enraptured her hearers when
she was last here. The reputation of Ole Bull is
too unbounded, and the anxiety everywhere too
k'reatto hear him, to admit of a doubt that the
bouse will be filled when hi' concert takes place.—
We therefore invite attention to his advertisement
iu another column, aud say to our readers, 6ecure
your seats at once.
Montgomery Guard Ball.—This much
talked of affair will take place to-nijht at the Union
Hotel, and we have every reason to believe that (hose
who attend will be highly delighted with the genera)
arrangements made tor the occasion. The Commit
tee to whom were entrusted the necessary prepara
tions, have spared neither labor nor money to give
entire satisfaction, and to render the celebration a
fitting one for the grand event in the history of our
country which it is intended to commemorate. The
Hth of January cannot be passed lightly over by a
people whose second independence from British
tyranny was gained on that eventful day. The bat
tle of New Orleans was a grand period for our citi
zen soldiery, whose bravery there defeated the ve
terans of England, and it is proper, therefore, that
our Volunteers should annually recur to it as a proud
moment in the history of American freemen, and it
is no less right that our citizens should join in the
merriment and rejoicing, for to it we owe in a mea
♦itro the happiness and independence we now enjoy.
From the character of the management, and the
.Teat care taken to exclude improper persons, there
is very little doubt that the Company at the Union
Hotel to-night., will be composed of our best citizens,
and the evening prove one of pleasure and enjoy
ment to all who participate in the entertainment.—
If you have not obtained a ticket yet, but desire to do
so, you had better call at an early hour this morning
and supply yourself, as but a limited number are to
be sol], and they may run out before night
Not Dose With—Juines Atkinson was
before the Mayor i»»t Satordny, to am*wit to the
rlmrge made itraiwt him of stealing $5 trout James
Jones on tho 30th ult.; but ax Jones refused to ap
pear, the examination was postponed until Wednes
day m \t, and a wurrai.t issued ageinet Junes to
briu? him into Court. The Mayor has no idea oi'
permitting men to swear awnv the character of
■jtbeßK, by making chnrpi! that Uit y cannot sustain;
iinA havtni: made their black mark, by imputation,
then shrinking out of it by keeping from Court,
and thereby preTcntinj the accused from proving
his iotioconoe. If Atkinson is jruilty, he should be
(Mini-.hud; but If Join* baa perjured bimaeif, ho

Wakmkh Up.—Win. Day, a worthier
free negro and awl notorious rogue, was handsome
ly warmed with a rowskin latt Bafitrday iiiortcu-g,
by order of the May < r. for stealing wood from some
person unknown. Flogging a creature ao utterly

Postpoiied.—The examination of tlie ne
gro boy Daniel charged with shooting and maim
own6d by Mr. Davis, will not take place
until Friday next, when the physicians of the

states that Mr. Davis' man hat lost one eye by the
shot, and that several shot have been taken out of

The Italian Opera Troupe will give

Olb Bull's Colony.—As mauy articlei and cotr
munications have found place in the Eastern papers
and been copied extensively in ths West in relation
to Ole Bull's connection with the colony in Panr
syivatiia, reflecting much discredit upon that gentle
man, vse furniih our readers with the following let
ter from Ola Bull's attorney, extracted from the
N. Y Herald of the 21st u!t.:
Jumci Gordon Hennett, Esq, rear Sir:—Having
observed ia t vour paper of lha lsth icst., a letter
h udeci ''Oio Boll's Colony in Pennsylvania." I deem
it iny duty, as the counsel of Mr. Bull, {he being ab
sent from the city,) to correct the impression which
the pubiic wouiu leceivo from thai letter, almost
every parngraph of which is without 'oundatiou.
It seems the ostensible author of this production is
one a medical man, wiio emigrated from some
place at ihe westof this colony, and has been, since
iiisi arrival, living, rent irep, in a bouso of Mr. Bun's,
and otherwise most plentifully partaking of his
bounty.
While pretending to be a warm frieod of O'.e Bull
and the Norwegians, he has secretly avowed that he
would have alt the Norwegians routed aud settle the
colony with Uerinan*—to which race he bc.'ongs. He
endeavored to obtain the situation of ovajseer, iu
which he failed. His whole career since his arrival
at the colonj has been characterized with duplicity
and imbecility, never having accomplished anything
except to bring a man with him to the colouy, who
has turned out to be of the stamp with himself.
It is so evident that this letter emanated from and
was written to curry favor with certa:n parties who
were connected with the late association, that jus
tice demands that 1 should give a full history of JVlr.
Bull's unfortunate connection with it.
In the summer of 1852, John K. Cowan, of Wil
liamsport, Joseph T. Bailey, of Philadelphia, and
olliers, procured for themselves au introduction to
Olu Bull, and through the agency of a person who
was then hia attorney, persuaded him to
a project which he had nearly complettd, of pur
chasing lands in Virginia, and to enter iuio an asso
ciation with them to found a colony on lands in Pot
ter county, of which they were the owners. Fif
teen hundred dollars were exacted from Mr 801 l to
pay the expenses of a trip for the whole party up to
view the lands Afarmor, who lived in tne vicinity,
was solicited by a person connected with the atfair—
but whose uame, fortlie present, I withhold—to rep
resent to Mr. Bull, as he passed through there, that
the lands were worth au acre, und increasing in
value.
Mr. Cowao, who headed the party. {alsely repre
sented to Air. Bull, aud also to Mr. Dudley, a well
known merchant of this city, who ha* escaped />nly
with a less ot $3,000, that certain lauds, and
the only level or cleared spot in thr whole trnct of
twenty thousand acres, belonged to him and hia as
sociates. and thus induced Air. Bull to consent to
found the colony there. A large sum of money to
expended by »«lr. Bull in procuring and forwarding
emigrants: aud, finally, a meeting was held in Phila
delphia, (Mr. Bull not being preseut,) at which
Cowan was appointed sole superintendent, and man
ager, Bailey treasurer, Mr. Bull president.
Teu thousand dollars were obtained from Mr. Bull
by Cowan, without giving him any equivalent, not
so much as a receipt. Bailey, through Cowan and
another, got from him twenty-live thousand dollars
more, for which it is now alleged that they were to
give Mr. Ball deeds to certain portions of the land ;
but uot the scratch of a pen was given to Mr. Bull
tc show it.
Cowan, some ten months after he had received the
money, wns reluctantly induced to give a deed for
about ten thousand acres, out of wtiich he covertly
excepted all the trace that induced Mr. Bull to tauks
the purchase. This decepticn wai not diacoveied
until after I was retained as his counsel, and went
personally to the lands to examine the validity ol
the titiea, &.C., when l ascertained that Bailey and
Cowan did no:, and never bad, owned a foot of this
tract —all ol which belonged to Mr. (ieerge Hteward
■ >n, of Philadelphia, of whom they bad made seve
ral ineflectual attempts to purchase it. Under this
deception, Mr Bull .lad expended from his owu pri
vate purse, $Jo,(feil, iu putting up buildings and sat
isfying ihe demands of aetileis, who complained
to hiui that Cowuu did not pay them fur their
work.
Bailey held on to the #£5,000, and still Mr. Bull hod
never been able to get u deed, or rhe slightest equiva
lent; and when lie wrote to have the money returned,
or else a deed, received as his only satisfaction the
answer, "that he was a foreigner, and could not hold
lands." Mr. Bailey, I knew, bus the reputation of a
a shrewd artificer in gold and the bnse metals; but the
fact that he did not discover that Old Bull, the Nnr
weg a> , wai not a native bora Yankee, till alter he
had get his money, does not sjieak much for his his
torical learning.
in July last 1 was employed as Mr. Bull's counsel,
and finding matters in this curious state, 1 adv.sed
him to abandon the whole concern, and demand t
return of his money .
After nearly hree month's time spent in collecting
evidence in Potter t/y and elsewhere, and in frequent
met ting Jot the counsel for the respective parties, a
comproinUe win effected, by which Mr. Bull return
ed the deed to Cowan, and received back his $1U,04X)
in the shape of a bond, payable in six, twelve, eigh
teen and twentf-fi>ur months, and be retired from
the association with a loss, as he asserts andean show,
of nearly $40,000.
By that settlement, Ole 801 l was to pay • certain
schedule of the debts of the association every dol
lar of which has been paid as fast as the parties could
be communicated with; Bailey, Cowan, ice., assumed
to pay the balance of the debts, and have not done
so; and it is the con-payment of tfceae debts aione
that has citased all the suffering at the oolooy, and
subjected Mr. Bull to the abuse of some of h:<
colonists.
The base attempt to throw the blame of the mis
management of the colony upon O«o Bali is in keep
ing with the rest of the Hibtnue. Cowaa was the »u
--penotendeat, and Bailey, at hia own urgent ao'icita
lion, was treasurer of thr association that founded tlifi
colony ; and on theli beads alone wilt tall the odium,
and <o them alone can be j-i»tly attributed any bad re
pute or mltfnintiiement of the colony.
Mr. Bull being wholly uriacijuuinttii with the price
ot the laud, wua induced by tnese parties to take it
a' $1 and $i 40 per acre, when it wan welt known la
Philadelphia that for years theownoraof belter land*
In the immediate vicinity have only rallied thetn at
from twenty-lire t©se*enty-ftve cuts.
Thla kn>gkt of the pill box osieir» in b's letter tbat
he knnwt that Mr. Bull luat no money in b!a connec
tion with the coiony j that he teaold the land for
double the amount he paid for it. and that nothii p hut
• friendly transaction took piaea between Mr. Bull
and the land owu-rt.
Now, erery word of tbi» hi knew to be fa'se, ot
elae he pledfud hta wuid to what he knew tiothinj
about.
X» to the 9i,MO received by hia coonael, it aeeroa
