New YoRK, November 2O.- We under
stand that Mr.. J. Fl. Wade, Director of the
Western Union Telegraph Company, will go
out in to-morrow's steamer, for the purpose
Of making arrangements for building the
end of the Pacific Telegraph Line. Material
for the line has been purchased, and is now
being shipped from Boston Ui1 Cape Horn.
From present appearances, there is every
reason for believing that when the spring
opens, the work on both ends of the route,
as well as the center, will be vigorously COM
menced. Two agents have already started
across theP lains, by different routes, for she
purpose of more thoroughly surveying them,
and of meeting Mr.. Wade in San Francisco,
when the route which the wires are to take
is to be finally determined upon.
FORT KEARNEY, November 2O.--Messrs.
Edward Creighton and W. r. Stebbins,
agents Of the Pacific Telegraph, left here
this afternoon, bound Westward. They will
survey the whole route to Salt Lake thor
oughly, and make contracts for the con-
stIuction of the line as far as Julesburg early
in the spring.

Lecture Before the YOung Mems MORGAN
tile Library Assecintion-Bayard TayIor
on the Races.
The largest audience that has assembled in
Smith h NixoR's Hall for several years, was
present last night on the occasion of Bayard
Taylor's lecture on "Man and Climate The
great experience of the speaker among al
most every race Of people, and certainly in
every climate capable of becoming the hab-
itation of intelligent beings rendered him
peculiarly qualified TO elucidate his subject.
He commenced by stating that all philoso-
pliers agreed that the noOest study of man
kind is man; and thousands have devoted
themselves TO the subject with enthusiasm;
but the great mistake generally is, that we
take ourselves as the tJ pc of the race, and
judge others by that standard, without re-
gard to the circumstances by which they are
surrounded. We might, if placed under the
same circumstances with the greatest GRIM
inals, be ourselves culprits and die igno-
miniously.
The animals feel, know, and think hut
man clone knows that he knows, feels that
he fetas, and thinks that he thinks. All
men, in primitive state, are morally SINH
lar, but differ physically and intellectually.
In Bulgaria they hang the intellectual man,
that there may be no agitation and that all
may be nearly equal; in many countries,
DOuetlhB hBHSi Ci' i'l1@u'iOni they huhSlo
him.
All races have many characteristics in
common, but in the minutia they differ.
These variations are chiefly the result of
climate; and in using that term, particular
parallels of latitude are not meant, but SINH
lar isothermal lines, which are varied by q
great number of outside causes.
There are three grand divisions of climate,
the tropical, temperate, and the polar; and
each is inhabited by race peculiar to itself.
In the tropical regions men are passionate
and impulsive, but lazy-ten days work
being sufficient TO keep a man year; in the
temperate zones they are cool, calculating,
and energetic. The speaker minutely sub
divided the different races, but our limited
space forbids our going into details, and we
will only state that he regards the Austria
lian as the lowest type of the human
Species and the Circassan the highest.
He claims that it would be folly to attempt
TO transplant race from its natural climate,
to a totally opposite. England indeed held
India, and France, Algiers; but it was only
by constant transplantations. Let the Euro
peans, now within the tropics, receive no
new additions from without, and their off
spring would become enervated as the ma
tives themselves. The Anglo-Saxons might
obtain Cuba, and Mexico, but they could
only be kept by uninterrupted emigrauttion.
All progressive civilization originated
with the white race, and all others tacitly
admitted its superiority. 1t was the great
intellectual motive power the facial angle
of the white man was 90o, while those Of the
Hottentot was but 60o.
His details of the different characteristics
of the race were exceedingly interesting,
but are necessarily excluded, as our space
will not permit us to publish them.

The evidence in this case proceeded before
Judge Storer. The witnesses examined in
the forenoon were F. Farelhaber Wash.
Rubuth and Polly Mclean. These Witnesses
considered, from the remarks and conduct
OF plaintiff, that he was insane last spring.

meFsage from God for her, but she didn't ask
him what it was, as she thought him in
sane.
Mrs. Gas testified to several acts of John,
from which she concluded, also, that John
was not sane at the time in question. This
witness gave absorption of the new system
which John Hobart had proclaimed: John
Martin was to be King, Louisa to be Queen;
and they were to be drawn in carriage with
six white horses.
Stephen Ball, one of the defendants, also
testified at some length in relation to the
acts of the plaintiff, from which be formed
an opinion as to Johns insanity at the time

The Secession ExeItement in the South.


The SeeessiOH Excitement in the South.
AUGUSTA, GA, November 20.-The largest
meeting ever held in Green. County came off
on Friday last. The most influential men in
the county participated. Resolutions of
conservative character were almost unani-
mously adopted. They urge the call of a
State Convention of all parties to calmly
consider the evils threatening the destruction
Of the National Union, appealing to the peo-
pie of the Union to discard the coupsels of
agitaGng politicians and demagogues of all
sections and rally to the support Of our i'm
periled Government. They say the politicians
instead Of allaying the excitement have
stirred 1t up; instead of repudiating national
distTust and dislike, they have promoted il;
instead of removing causes of dispute, they
have created them for the sake Of power and
Office. In both sections they have pandered
to the passions and prejudices of the people
at home, keeping each section ignorant of
the patriotic conservative feelings of the
other, until, mutually exasperated by the in
cendiary disoTganizing representatives of
hungry oftice-seekers, both sections find
themselves engaged in a fierce controversy
which they had no hand in bringing on.
A large meeting in Hancock County, on
Saturday, adopted, unanimously, firm con-
servative resolutions, declaring that the
election Of Lincoln was no cause for dissolu-
uon, but the un1flendly Legislation OF many
of the free States is an Outrf ge on the COM
munity of the Union, and demanding resist
ance.
A majority of the counties in the State have
held meetings in favor of secession. Many,
however were strongly conservative, while
some were in favor of retaliatory legislation;
but all favor a State Convention, aud all OPP
pose coercion of the seeding States.
A meeting in Bryan County declared that
no Northern fishermen or hunters should
hereafter operate in that section, and that
those at present fishing and hunting be
notified to leave.

B. Smith & Co., which was referred to the
Commissioner of the District.
Also, from VIM. Glenn & Sons, which was
likewise referred.

Mr.. Horton moved that the City Council
be requested to authorize the Board of City
Improvements to raise the stone abutments
at the foot of Mill-street 80 as to receive the
superstructure of the iron bridge to be built
at that point, and that the Clerk be in
structed TO advertise for proposals to do the
work, accordingly.
FURTHER TINE ASKED.
Mr.. Stagge presented communication
from the contractors for the work on Brown
street, setting forth that the residents on

ing leave to postpone the same until the lst
of May.

GARBAGE.
After the transaction of the regular busi-

and the Mayor stated that the matter seemed
now to work well. People and contractors
began to understand each other. 1t was also
! suggested that the contractors would doubt
less show an avidity to attend to their duty
in the premises, owing to the fact that they
were working for ready money, cash-and
sure pay; terms which would be somewhat
rare this winter. 1t is well if the people
have this hold upon them, furnishing, as il
| does, additional assurance Of strict perform
| ance.
