The Judge goes into an elaborate historical and le-

terms OF the treaty, and the principles of law they in-

We don't see how any body escape from his con-
illusions. He decides that the claimants entitled

is paid But it has been The usa 20 OF This government

Judge Bronson shows however that in these Florida

The Petersburg Intelligencer complains of the
Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad
Company for running their slow boat between Ac-
quia Creek and Washington, while their fast boat
plies between the Creek and Baltimore, and to this
circumstance attributes the failure of the Rich
mond & Petersburg cars to reach Petersburg on
Tuesday night last, whereby upwards of one hun
bred passengers were detained The Intelligent
Ger then says:
Can the Richmond Tmes-which is kind of or
gan of the Railroad Compahy-inform US why such
gross indifference 10 the interests of the stockholders,
il not to the comfort of the travelling community, is
allowed 7 Why coop up SO many passengers In a
small boat, where they can scarcely find sit
down. and delay them in this way on their Journey,
and keep their best boat carrying some ten fiji
teen passengers at trip, which suppose is as
many go to Baltimore by the round about way
down the Potomac Is II possible, as we have heard
1t suggested by some that the persons who manage
control The Richmond and Fredericksburg Railroad,
have larger interest IN the Seaboard and Railroad,
and are thus endeavorng to- make this line odous TO
travellers, ter the purpose of turning them in that d.
reeuon 1t is well known that these gentlemen have
| large interest IN the Seaboard road, for they have
openly avowed IT. but things have come to pretty
pass, II they are TO manage matters In this way
We think II is high time that the State and the her
stockholders, who are not Interested In he Seaboard
road, should look into this matter The Board of
u"N ho ufl0 ooth very PiohiPt 10 0hquiie
mo any alleged bad management on he railroads ia
this quarter We hope they will look into this case;
tor it suYpasses any thing of the kind that has ever
been oh rged on the railroads about here
We must turn our friend of the Intelligencer
over to the authorities of the fredericksburg Com
pany, of whom the Times is neither an organ, nor
kind of an organ for it knows nothing of their
counscls except by public report, and is as ready
70 condemn as to applaud what they do, according
TO the justice of the case.
In the present insance, it seems to US as little
probable that the managers of the railroad use their
slow boat in order to aid the Seaboard and Roa-
| noke railroad, for the purpose of constraining
passengers for the South to larry day at the Pc
tersburg hotels; for the Seaboard road is not yet a
rival of the Petersburg and Richmond line.

The remarkable Aurora Borealis which was
observed by our citizens with so much pleasure
on Monday evening last, appeared in all its spen-
dour to the people Of Charleston. The following
happy description by the Evening News seems to
show thu the briliancy of the beautiful phenome-
non was not diminished to observers in a southern

AURORA BoREALIs.-Our citizens last evening were
deghted by an Exhibition OF this rare and rarely beu-
ulul celestial visitor Its appearance was as an ook, d
tor as 1t was exquisite. At sunset, the western sky
was dyed with sot cool orange color This soon
disappeared, but scarcely had the sky put on the uni.
torn dun hsb evening" when glory was spread
ou upon the northern horizon. There, the sky was
covered with rich purple illusion, rich as to seem
the distant fires OF burning city From amidst the
exqu'sfe flush which enveoped all this region the
strednerS shot up 10 great height in slender perpen
di, uar shafts, OF deeper lines and of richer hues than
the massed loneliness from which they emanated-
They did not RISE fall and fiuctua as in the northern
ske9; but seemed to continue at permanent elevation
VARYING in height and in de pth of color This beau
hul spectacle continued until enveloped and merged in
the increasing brightness OF the moon but its presence
was still easily diScernibe in the peculiar whteness of
the SKY IN this quartz oil the heavens, The effect of the
moonlight upon 1t eng precisely that which it exercises
upon closely packed masses of cloud lying in the path
OF the moon. For hours, the spectacle still visible
and as the weather Continues cool and clear we nav
look for it again tonight. Is it an augury OF cold
