We are gratified to learn that Geo. O. Clarke, of New York. ex Gor. Paine and Gen.

D. W. C. Clarke, of Vermont, P. Greeley, Eeqi, of Bos tea, and others, in company with Senator Rosk, of Texas, have arrived in this city on their way te Texas, whither tbey will depart by the steamer of tbe 12th inst.

The gentlemen composing this party represent large railroad and' moneyed interests, and the entire confidence of heavy capitalists of the Northeastern States will be given to the report they may make on their return to New York and Boston. It is their intention, we learn, to snake a tour of recoaaoissance through the coun try, which now appears likely to be the theatre of magnificent railway enterprises, taking their departure from Galveston and proceeding, via Houston, Austin, to Ef Paso, and returning on some more northern liue towards Memphis and Vicksburg. Tbe great moneyed strength and influence with capitalists which these gentlemen represent together with the knowledge and large expen ence tbey possess as practical railroad men, will enable them to proceed with the work of con traction without delay and before the meeting the next Congress, and to prosecute it with energy and expedition, should the result of their examinations prove as favorable as may be anticipated, and should such judicious and liberal legislative aid and encouragement as the marni tade and importance of the great project demand, be extended by Texas and other States which the contemplated road will traverse. Prom the well known zeal and ability with which the extraordinary claims of the Southern routs for the Pacific railway have been presented and advocated in the Senate of the United States and elsewhere, by Gen. Rusk, and from the fact that he is now accompanied to the proposed line of this route by gentlemen, of the character and standing and the powerful means we have referred to, we are justified in looking upon the movement now making aa likely to prove of the highest practical and economical We donttj not the party will meet with a cordial reception in Texas.

Oua Constjls Mr "run East. Mr. Bryant, of the New York Evening Post, who is now pur suing his travels in the in a letter dated at Smyrna, drawn attention to tbe extra ordinary powers possessed by American Consuls In the Turkish dominions. They have in fact a power nearly absolute on the lives and property all Americans who come within their consular reach. 'These powers grov out of the public law and usages of the Ottoman Empire, which are specially sanctioned by our treaty with the Sultan, and by acts of Congress sanctioning arid confirming the usage.

By the treaty, citizens of tbe United States who may be sojourning in the Turkish dominions, are protected against all molestation, unless charged with some crime or offence, and even when charged with any such offence, they are not to be arrested and put into prison by the local authorities but the Minister or Consul has the power to try and punish them. In the provinces this right of arrest and imprisonment is so absolute that the Pacha has no right even to inquire into the caue of the until after the expiration of three days In thennean time the Consul may deal with the prison a summarily and as capriciously as he A law of our Congress was passed in 183, Test fc in out Consuls in Turkey the "judi cial "power execute this to issue his warrants fo Uhe arrest of any citizen of the united tat charged in Turkey with an offence "agaYfet law," to arraign and try him, and on eonvicvtoo, to sentence him to fine and imprisonment. Vrbe law of Congress makes provisions for evital punishment In certain but if a Cr ul should desire to bang op aa America? at any me within three days alter arrest, there is aoi will save them or i ia the Turkish law which orize interposition.

w111e published Cansail dated Debu Wa have reoelved a communication signed awawssa "One of the. Committee," in reply to some re marks which we made upon the resolutions adopted at the last meeting of tbe Board of As sistant Aldermen, relative to the assets of the late corporations and the consolidated debt We regret bar space will not permit ns to publish the communication. We think, however, our. cor respondent will find most of his arguments an ticipated la the remarks we made wljen the sub iect was first acitated. It seems to ns the whole question lies within rerv narrow limits.

What does the law require What is the meaning and Intent of the act of consolidation aa affecting the disputed question I A correct answer of these interrogations deter mines the whole controversy. Where the terms ef the raw arw TOriiivoeat.ww eamit'flpari from its plain requirements under the pretence of obtaining equity. Where there hi no doabt about the intent or letter of the act of consolida tion, we mar not transgress Its provisions under the plea of doing justice. It is the duty of the Common Council to carry out, and not endeavor to evade the act of consolidation. For example, the commissioners are directed "to divide the debt of the old corporation between the several municipalities in proportion to the assessed value of real estate within the limits of earn, accord.

ing to the State assessment roll for 1851." Upon the principles assumed by our correspondent and other advocates of tbe resolutions in ques tion, relative to political corporate existences, the above provision of the act of consolidation is a huge violation of equity. But who propose to disregard it We make these remarks merely to direct attention to the true and only issue, to wit the requirements of the ci'y charter. We express no opinion upon the intrinsic equity of the object which the resolutions propose to effect, simply because the act. of consolidation being in our opinion perfectly clear and conclu sive upon tbe whole question raised, we do not think such an opinion pertinent to tbe inquiry. We should not forget, in discussions of this kind, to distingnish between the city of New Orleans and its officers.

The free white inhabit ants of New Orleans are the body corporate into whose possession and ownership have passed all the property and assets of the defunct corporations, and which has assumed all their debts. The legislative power of this corporation i vested in a Common Council, the executive power in the Mayor and other officers. The duties of each department or the government are defined. The executive may not trespass upon the legislative, nor vicetvrHL. The authority o( the two branches of government is coordinate, being derived from )he same instrument.

But the art of consolidation, though placing the general administration of the affairs of the city in tbe hands of the Common Council, Mayor, Ac, has created another body called the Commis sioners of the Consolidated Debt of New Orleans, with special powers and for a specific purpose. The authority of this body being exceptional, its powers and duties must be strictly construed but so far as they are distinctly enumerated. being derived from the same instrument, they are coordinate with those of the other branches of govern meat. The Common Council can no more supervise or alter the acts of tbe comnTis sioner in their sphere, than the latter can do the like thing to tbe Common Coun cil. The commissioners were vested exclusively with the power and duty of ascertaining' and apportioning the indebtedness of the old corporations at tbe date of consolidation and oT funding the same.

They were entrusted with tbe city's credit and empowered to issue tbe bond nf the new city in exchange for tbe obligation of tbe old corporations, or to sell the new bonds and apply their proceeds to the payment of the old matured debts. But here their powers end. So far, however, they are exclusive and entirely free from the control oi the Common Council It is precisely besause tbe resolutions assume to the Common Council a control over the action of the commissioners in their legitimate sphere that we oppose their adoption. We think the resolutions contemplate an assumption of power on the part of the Council of which it was pur. posely deprived by the Legislature.

If the commissioners erred in fixing tbe amounts of the indebtedness of tbe several districts, the Common Council cannot correct the error by its own action, because it bas no jurisdiction over that matter, any more than tbe Board of Commissioners can correct the errors of the Common Council. Again, tbe powers of the commissioners being exceptional and subject to a strict construction, and no authority to receive assets being given to them by the act of consolidation, the commis sioners are clearly Incompetent to take or use the assets of tbe old corporations. We regret our space has not permitted us to notice in detail the arguments of our correspondent. There are' several errors into which we think he has fallen and which we should have been glad to have poiuted out A Military Incident. ft is our good fortune to be able to record one of those pleasing incidents that occasionally occur to give a higher and better notion of the human heart, and elevate our ideas of mankind in gen eral.

'The Louisiana Greys, Capt Francis Leech, one of our finest bodies of citizen soldiery, paraded on Saturday last, and visited the lake via Carrollton, for the purpose of target shooting. The parade was intended to celebrate the third anniversary of their re organization, and was a very briliiant and gratifying affair. After the close of the target shooting, the company, with its iuviled guests, consisting of Cols. Wood, Floyd, and a number of other military gentlemen. sat down to a fine dinner at the Lake Hotel.

Toasts were given, and appropriate remark made, and at tbe close of them the company re turned by tbe Jefferson and Lake Pontchartrain Railroad. On their return to their armory in this city, tired with tbe marching and amuse ments of the day, it was recollected by some one present that CoL Ward, of Austin, who commanded the company on the day when it cap tured San Antonio from a Mexican force out numbering it as ten to one, was sojourning for a short time in the ciiy. This fact was communi cated to Capt Leach, with the expectation that he would notify the company of tbe fact, and request them on some subsequent day te appear and pay their regards to their former command er, bui iapi. i.eacu. wuu a prompuiuue uuiy military aud commendable, immediately gave orders to "form in line right face march," and marched the company off to the City Hotel, in quest of Col.

Ward. We do not recollect the particulars of the fight at San Antonio, nor have we at present the time requisite to search for mfnnte information. It is sufficient to say that in 1836 the Louisiana Greys, then under the command oi uoi. vvara, in com pany with a number of Texans the whole force not exceeding two hundred men attacked and took by storm the fortified city of San Antonio, garrisoned by a. Mexican force of nearly two thousand men.

"They were compelled, on account of the superiority of the enemy and the peculiar character of the contest, to deviate from tbe established methods of capturing cities, and instead of sweeping through the streets under a galling fire' from the windows and barricades, tbey entered the first Loose they came to, and nrorressed ny cutting from one dweiimg to another, until they reached tbe main body of tbe enemy, when tbe fighting was at once closed by a brilliant and decisive victory. In this gallant contest a great many of the men were killed, and C). Ward lost a leg and an arm. With ibis brief summary of the olden story our readers can better understand Uie character oi tne meeting wuicn ioob piace Between me Colonel and tbe company he formerly command ed. The' occasion was to him as unexpected as as it mast have Jeen gratifying.

Indeed, be was with some djfficnlty discovered, and was not apprised of the object of his captivity nntil he was presented to the company. We have neither i ume nor space, to recora ue iwurjui wuw occarred between them. Suffice it to say thai sach hearty meeting are rarely met with, and rarely recorded. The entire absence of any premeditation or pre arrangemenr, tbe evident deep feellajg of eo)d goJJert mutilated form rave speaking proof ef the zeal with which he sb sarajaasi wiaavas nan mat his eoantry's foes, the eager and ardent A 00, Idlers who snrroanded him. 2.itSf.BW olfonB' toter9 every dsy we d.

And snutber soul in Heaven The fearisi of March. A very old blunder is repealed in the follow ing paragraph, which we have found in one of our ezchauge papers I'ompHment to Svnttaw. l)o our readers senersllv Inn th reason why tbe 4th of March ws chosen tbe dsy of the inauguration of tbe President of the United Slates? It was selected neraose tbe 4th ef March in rv kmr niiiuruiju 11 oui ll'M. I raillMl, CSIlOOt COBI OD onnuay iw at teas rurtc oouatea year. If Ibis means that the 4lh of March for the presidential inauguration every fourth year can not come on Suuday for at least throe hundred years'1 from tbe day of the first inauguration, ii is strangely forgetful that the 1th ol March, lr49, the day for Gen.

Taylor's inauguration, came on Sunday, as did the 4th of March, IS J5, tbe day of the inauguration of John Qumcy Adams; and it ut straugely unobservant that tbe same thing win uappen 111 ici 11 11 means that there is any peculiarity in the 1th of March, which dis tiuguishes it from any other day in the year, in regard to the succession of the days of tbe week upon which its anniversary occurs, the mistake is quite aa great There is no day of the year exempt from the. rule of invariably recurring succession, returning upon the same day of tbe week after a certain cycle of years. Iu every twenty eight yearn tbe days of the month come back to tbe same days of the week in tbe same order. The 4th of March, aud eveu tbe 29th day of Feb ruary are no exceptions. Wilhiu tbat same pe riod every day in the ordinary year will have re curred four times on every day of the week that is, there will have been four Sundays, four Mon days, four Tuesday, Ate, throughout to four Sa turdays each, for every day in the year, from January 1st to December 31st, inclusive, and there will have been one February 29th for each day of tbe week, from Suuday to Saturday, iu elusive, but not in the order as stated.

Tbe or der varies, so that each day of tbe year for every fourth year during the cycle will be on a diner ent day of the week, so as to complete the week four times. Hence there will be a 4 lb of March, as well' as a 1st, 2d aud 3d of March, four limes on each of tbe seven davs of tbe week iu everv twenty eight years, dating forward from any year whatever, and counting backward as well as for ward but these days do uot recur at intervals of seven years. I hey recur at such intervals tbat tbe day of the month racursupona different day or tbe week every fourth year. The law of sue cession which establishes this rule as invariable is vry simple in its principle, but it is as fixed as the astronomical data in which it finds its ne cessitv. Tbe notion therefore that ahe selection of the 4lh of March for the inauguration or the first President was made from some special regard for a mysterious convenience in the day, rests on a very singular ignorance of simple, natural and mathematical facts.

But, in fact, the first in auguralion did not take place on the 4iU ul March, lien. Washington was inaugurated on Thursday, the 30th of April, The 4th ol March was designated by tbe old Congress a tbe day for putting the new constitution into opera tion, in a general resolution passed September 13, 1788, in these words Ketotvtd. That the first Wednesday in January next be the day forappuintiug electors in the Be feral 8tatee which before that day shall nave ratified tbe constitution; tbat tne nrat Wednrsdsy in ertruary next be tne day Ibr tbe electors 10 assemuie unaer cue new constitution ana voce for a President; and that the first Wednesday in March next be the time, aud the present seat of Congress the place, for rouiuieuciug the proceedings under the uew COUSUIUUUB. These days were arranged for convenience at exactly one month apart; and it will be per eeived that there is no direction for any inaugu ration of President on the first Wednesday of I March, which happened to be the 4Uj. There was no inauguration until nearly two month afterwards.

The appointmeut of the. old Con gress was for the tirsag in March not for the 4th day of on th for tbe commence ment of thajiew Alovscaaient The constitution made no provision onhe subject. The commencement nf the presidential term was subaequeally fixed by law. Congress, in March, I t'Ji, passed an act regulating the elec tion of President and Vice President the same which is now in force with amendments made in 1804, to conform to the alteration of the con stitution in regard to tbe mode of election. By that act the first Wednesday of January was retained for the receipt of the electoral votes at Washington and the first Wednesday ia Febru ary for the counting aud proclaiming them.

The twelfth section, however, prescribes that tbe term of the President and Vice President "shall. in all cases, commence on tbe iih of March next succeeding tbe day on which the votes of the electors shall have been given." This day was nadoubtedly selected because it was tbe fourth anniversary of the first Wednesday In March, 1789, thus completing fall term since the Go vernment was first put into operation. The se lection', was therefore one of accidental conve nience, and not of deaigu, and was made by law not by the constitution three years alter the firet inauguration had taken place, on a different day of the month.

At the meeting of citizeus of Savauuah on Weduesday last, to lake into considaration the propriety of the City Council appropriating funds for the improvement of the navigation of the river and harbor, tbe business waa prompt ly Transacted.

A resolution was adopted re questing the City Council to appropriate $100,000, to be expended in improviug the navigation the sum to be raised by the issue of seven per cent bonds. The meeting was organized, the pream ble and resolution offered aud carried, aud tbe meeting adjourned, all iu the space or tea minutes.

Rv a further appropriation, which no doubt tbe future will provide, these two feet mar be increased to live, thus giving us a cbaunel tiiroueli which all vessels drawing nit mnre rtran tweutv feet ma come up to the wharves of our city.
