A GEORGIA REsOLUTIoN.-We find in the
proceedings Of the Georgia Legislature the
following, that body at the time having un.
der consideration the resolutions in refer.
ence to The appointment Of Commissioners
to visit the other slave States:
Mr.. Davis, Of Dade offered the following
resolution:
Re'olred. further, That said Commission
ers. after due consultation with the Com.
missiOners Of the other States, be required
to repair forthwith to the mountains of
Hepsdam, where the abolitionists roar, and
the fire-eaters qnietly gnaw file, and the
WhandOodle mOurns over the ruins Of this
once glorious Union, and they report for or
against cooperation, as TIE eMgency Of the
times may demand, or they in their wis.
dom may determine.
After spending the whole morning aud
nearly the afternoon in discussing the reso-
luton, on motion Of Mr.. Tracy, of Bibb It
was indefinitely postponed.

MODERN DIscOvERIEs.-Bayard Taylor,
the celebrated traveller, thus sums up the re-
suit of modern discovery:
Within the last twenty-five years. all the
principal features of the geography of our
own vast interior regions have been accu-
rately determined; the great fields of Cen
tral ASIA have been traversed in various di-
rectlons, from Bokhara and Oxus to The Chi
nese wall; the half known river systems of
South America have been explored and sur
veyed; the icy continent around the South
ern Pole has been discovered; the North
western Passage, the ignis fdt,t,ts of nearly
two centuries Is at last found; the Dead Sea
Is stripped of its fabulous terrors; the course
Of the Niger is no longer a myth, and the
sublime secret of the Nile is almost wrested
from his keeping; the Mountains of the Moon
sought for through two thousand years have
been beheld by a Caucasian eye; an English
steamer has ascended the Chabba to the
frontiers of the great kingdom of Bornou:
Lelchardt and Stuart have penetrated the
wilderness Of Australia; the Russians have
descended from Irkoutsl1 TO the mouth of
the Amoor; the antiquated walls Of Chinese
prejudice have been cracked and are fast
tumbling down, and the canvass screens
which surround Japan have been cut by the
sharp edge Of American enterprise. Such
are the principal results of modern explora-
ton. What quarter Of century since the
form of the earth, and the boundaries ofits
land and water we're known, can exhibit
such list Of achievements?

Tricks ON TRAVELLERS London

TRICKS ON TRAVELLERS London
American of the 9th of February, says:
We learn that an outrage has been COM
mitted in Palestine on two American trav-
elers, the Rev. DIR. Deyburn and Mr. Low.
These gentlemen, being on their way to the
Dead Sea across the wilderness OF Engedi,
had halted for refreshment, on the 26th ult.
on the shores Of the Jordan, when suddenly
party of Arabs, one of whom had been
having a conference with their guide, an
Arab sheikh. rushed upon them from an
ambush with pointed spears and at full gal.
lop, demanding their money. Mr.. Low pre-
sented bis revolver, but it missed fire. where
upon the Arabs took their watches, jewclry
and clothes, and disappeared across the riv-
er, taking two OF their horses. which were
afterwards found. The sheikh galoped off
to Jericho for help. Mr.. Low was fortunate
enough TO discover an Arab cloak, and he
and his companions, scantily clothed, made
the best Of their way TO Jerusalem. Nj.
Page. United States Consul, took immedi-
ate steps for the discovery of the robbers
and the restitution or the spoils. lie de-
manded Of the Pacha that the Arab sheikh
should be kept as hostage, which was
done. The event will undoubtedly lead to
the demand for guarantees for the better
security of American travellers.

A PRAIRIE on FRE.-The correspondent
of the London Times, who accompanied the
Prince of Wales through Illinois, gives the
following vivid description of prairie on
fire
AS these fires especially at this season OF
the year, do the land much good, the pro-
grese OF the contiagration was watched with
perfect indifference. Soon the sky, from
rejecting narrow strip of red, lit up with
an angry glare as the mass of fire spread
beneath 1.-THE little patches Of flame be-
gan to crest the undulation, ragged columns
oil dense iiery smoke streamed away in lurid
masses as IT it would carry the fame and
heat up into the clouds themselves. An
hour more and the three fires bad apparent
ly joined, or, at least were so'close togeth-
er that they formed one large belt of flame
that covered the earth and lit up the sky
for miles and miles. The fire was at least
eight or niue miles distant from Dwight,
and from there it looked comparatively
small space in the immense horizon of land
around, and only by the bright orange
hame In the distance, and the mass of fiery
sky above, could one judge adequately of
the real area occupied by the burning
plains. Not so. however, as after long
ride you apr cached them from the wind
ward side. For mile and more before
you reach the edge of the fire you are in its
bright orange light, which makes every
thing as visible as If it were MONDAY, and
the sun was shining iiercely through blood
colored hase. You can hear the sharp
barking howl OF the prairie wolves as they
rush away for the darkness. and see prairie
hens fiuttering from place to place, and
often turning in their. wild terror full into
the smoke, and they fall aud perish in
stantly. At last you gain little rise and
look beyond into such scene as nothing
but prairie fire can show. Ii spreads out
a sea of red smOuldering ashes. going for
miles in all directions, while the deep white
ridge of flames ahead mount the slopes with
awful rapidity, and flap their heavy tongues
up into the air with h0arse roaring noise
that fills you with astonishment and almost
terror. Hour after hour you will stand.
fascinated with the terrible beauties of the
scene, as the mass of red sultry ruins grows
and grows each minute, until your ewes are
panied aud heated with its angry glare, and
you almost dread the grand, fierce sheet of
fire, which has swept all trace of vegetation
from the surface of the prairie.
On Monday night, when near twelve
o'clock, the wind changed little and turn
ed the flames nearly back upon the ground
they had already devastated, and this at
once checked their progress. On the next
day, however, they sprang mp afresh and
ragged faster and faster than before, and the
whole extent of the prairie east of Dwight
was hidden under such dense cloud of
yellow smoke as never saw before.

DEADLY ASSAULT ON A WIEE.-A man.
named Patrick Griffin, attempted, yesterday
afternoon to kill his wife, Della Griffin. 10
the house of Mr.. Batchelder. on Post street.
near Montgomery 1t appears that she did
not want to live with him. and had gone to
work at Batchelder's. Griffin went there
and made violent assault upon her with a
bowie-knife. cutting her hands and slashing
at her as she ran and she attempted to de.
fend herself with her hands. II appears that
this is the fourth time that Griffin has thus
attempted TO kill bis wife. the second time
at this house. He expresses determine.

AFFAIRS IN MIssIssIPPL-Th st. Louis
Evening News has the following in regard
TO suffering in Mississippi and disatfec;ion
among the people:
We learn by. reliable advices receiv-
cd from citizens of Mississippi now in ST.
among the people of that State, at the vio-
lent coercion of Mississippi into the vortex
of secession, by the arbitrary leaders of the
movement, aud particularly at the refusal
OF the convention to submit the question Of
secession to popular vote.
1t will be remembered that very re-
spectacle minority of the delegates were
elected as 'Co-Operationists were dragoOn-
ed and browbeaten into an abandonment of
their views aud the desire Of their constitu.
ents, and forced, against their own better
judgment, by the outside pressure brought
TO bear OH the convention to vote for the
ordinance of secession. In the 'co.opera-
ton counties the dissatisfaction of the peo.
pie is greatest, though its public and con.
certed expression is repressed by the terror
ism still maintained by the secessionists.
The people were not prepared for the se-
we're trials which secession imposes upon
them. Their crops last year were short,
aud in the counties bordering on the Ala
bama line the utmost desttution exists.
Planters who generally make fifty to sew
enty.fve bales of cotton, made last year.
only ten to twenty; and even this scant
crop cannot be sent to market, on account
of the disturbance of trade. The people,
therefore. are in debt, and suffering from
want of the cOmmOnpst npcpssarips of life
1t is not surprising, then, that they should
be discontented at the movement that not
only deprived them of a country and flag
but which subjects them to the severest pri-
vatiOns and hardships, with nothing but the
dreary swamp light of an expensive South
ern Confederacy to cheer them.

RAILROAD TRAIN IN A Snow DRrFr.--A
railroad train from Rouse's Point for Og-
densburg, about the middle of February.
got stuck in snow bank, and was eompeil-
ed to remain all night and until the next
afternoon. notwithstanding two locomotives
were attached to it. There were twenty.
ilVe passengers on board, who suffered from
hunger as well as cold. The latter was in
tense, and as the wood of the train had Civ
en- out, the fences along the track were
stripped to keep the passengers from freez-
ing. A messenger who was dispatched to
them from way station was badly frozen.
The train Was three days making trip
usually run Ia four or I've hours.
