I! Icarr. that Georgia has enoagh *ron and

dem and the world, I am ready. I am glad
to recant. 1 want now to refer to the Ma,
coo A di'ttorwick Railroad. The bills cf
the Georgis Railroad, were for a long time
10 or 20 par cent discount. Who lost this
10 or -20 per cer.:! The people of course.
Who got the beceSt cf it ? The Railroad
Company. Had the Georgia are! Central
Railroads, had the aid ia the way ve seek

attention .of the House pirticularly to one
point. The Central Railroad in its recent

Gentlemen talk about bonds to secure the
State from los*. Suppose the Roads were
to fail, who believes the State would forfeit
there bonds? For one I should say to the
Raada, take the $3,000,000 to pay lor our
foBy; for tho State ‘ had better lose this
money than impoverish these sections So
gentlemen let private companies work this
themselves. Uonds to be paid in 30 years
you say. On then bonds tho interest is
$28,000. Now Suppose these companies
fail to pay that interest when it is due,
won't the State pay it at once 1 For the
credit of Georgia, I should tote to pay it.
Keep Georgia independent, and posterity
will never regret that we had lived.
Mr. Kenan was not long; but he spoke,
rt was with eloquence rarely lieart^ upon
this floor.
Mr. Speaker then followed hint in one
of bis most happiest ami most telling ef
forts. As the Speaker did not linieli, 1
shall give you hut an outline of this very
able argument, and report him more fully
when he has closed.
He rep.llcd the idea that there could be
corruption in this “dv. Said in the Na
tional (ioaD*d?j 'b the efforts to s. -
cot the inembors. wh> i-nned with cor-
roptro"' no slam was found upon any mem-
t^c from the South. He regretted that
gentlemen on this floor had used the term
Octal bus. This had first been used by old
Benton, on an oacasion, which renders the
word, to him, peculiarly odious, Gent'emeu
talked about eoinbiiution. it wts n sight
more cheering to hint, t a see the neglected
sections of the writirg in this demand than
to see them eomo up hero, one at a time,—.
If you can’t consider the merits of each one
of thes: roads as they are, then move to
strike out one Road at the time and the
merits of that Road will then oome up for
discussion. There was a cnmliruHion in the
city of Savannah, which he did loathe. It
was the combination to charge planters two
and a half per eent. for the sale of their
cotton. Fie followed and answered the ar,
eumeufs of the gentleman from Baldwin,
and others.
As time presses. I must postpone the bal
ance of this argument, till he has dosed.

The Present Monetary Arisi*.
Tho nionewry crisis is tho all sbsorhtng
feeling. Even the gratiljing
from India this week, which points to the
speoiiy suppression of the rebellion, is in-
■ FW»M iwiuuioreiv,, -■ j
sufficient to distract attention from
severe ordeal through which we sre parting
and which threatens the sp-'edy dtsraem-
berment of utl commrteisl r, atfons. I he
stoppage of the Wester; bank ol Scotland
and Its hundred branches, with the foilnwe
of great houses which arc every day an
nounced, appear to be but the beginning ot
the end. The evil lies deeper than the
surface, und its cause terms so far to havr
eludovi thu Yiglltncft ot’ the shrewu busioosj
classes in this count y whoso property has
become seriously depreciated hy what is
possing around.
The present crisis, vro are lolJ, differs
from that which prevailed ten years ago in
this essential—that, whereas in 1847, our
linanci.il dillicu!ti;S were ti e result of over
speculation, of great railway scheams, and
of bad harvests, gold in largo quantities
was then sent out of tho country to buy
food, und a great ronton of the trading
community had Poked up its capital in
unproductive enterprises at home. Admit
ting the justice ol these deductions with
reference to the time referred to, how is the
present monetary crisis to be accounted for
when none of iliese evils has been in ope
ration ! The la«tharvest "as one of the
earliest and most boups'ul with vvhich the
•ountry was ever h’ si, and speculation, in
the usual acco-atiou of the mrm, has been
kept within rery moderate limits. By some
we are assured that our difficulties may be
- —. .r... me orrr trading ol a few great
firms with the f'nited Suites j by others to
the constant efforts of the Hank of France,
the European banks, and tho American
bunko, io -v—o «... a-i-t» by others to
the operation ol the bank charter- In dinar
surmises may he found, if not the whole
troth, a portion of the truth, but the fact is
undeniable thatsit the present moraont we
witness the humiliating spectacle of the
three greatest commercial nntions in the
world—England' France and the United
Stales—being brought tc the verge of
bankruptcy for want of a sufficient supply
of that metal which unhappily rules this
planet—gold. In every oilier essential
these three great nations are relatively
richer than they were twelve months back.
The last harvest iu each of them was more
than ordinary prolific, ami production in
the great staples was going on healthily and
prosperously until thi-panic made its ap
pearance. when industry immediately be
comes blighted.tho price of all cotninodN
ties instantly falls, credit is all hut annihi
luted, and the owners of substantial prop
orty are reduced to a state of collapse, like
a patient struck down with cholera at the
moment ha believes his physical enorgies
to be the strongest. There must be some
thing radically wrong in the monetary syj
tein of each.couutry when a-late of thing
like ibis follows an abundant harvest, and
all but brings the social machine to a dead
lock.
These evils every one admits. They are
patent to ihe world; they effect high and
low, rich and poor, old and young, hut cs,
penally they effect Ihe poor. Commercial
credit is the life-blood of the nation.—
When that is disorganised or gone, society
is in a fair way of resolving into its origi"
nal elements. If a remedy for these con
stantly recurring panics cannot be found
! or do uot exist, i! is our duty as rational
| beings to submit to them with tho best
! grace we can command, hut in our humblo
the people of this reelm. This property
receives large additions from year to year,
but its moneyed representation doee not ins
crease, and allhough railways alone have
added throo hundred millions to uur fixed
oaoital within Ihe time of tho living genera
tion, the circulating medium bos received no
proportionate increase. An increasing pops
illation is doomed to work with fewer and
fetvo- monetary inatrumoxta.and henco it is
that extortionate'usury tr.u-t become normal
and permament;" With the truth of this
ixlract crory commercial reudor must ugrec,
and as wo have often shewn in those col
umn), the personal interest of the bunk pro
prietory is too often at issue with the inter
est of the people -a condition of things
which tught not lo exist, and the present
suspension of the Bank Charter by tho gov
ernment of Lord Palmerston must bo the
fororunnor, if thu nation is true to itself, of
its speedy und pentfiauient annihilation

DISASTER ON ST. JOHNS BAR
Total Wreck of the United States Mail

XO LIVES LOST.
>y*a nre indebted to tho kindness of Col
M P. Stovall, of Augusta, and Mr. J. Eer
ruby, of Florida, passengers on the above
steamer, for tho f Uowing particulars :
The Welaka, Capt McNelty, left Jack-
sonvillo, Florida, at 10 P M on Thursday
the 3d inst., for this port. On crossing the
Sf Johns Bar the next morning about 1
o'clock, some part of the tnachinorv gave
way, which prevented Capt. McNeltv
from having any control over her. A high
siM wua running at tho time and tho steamer
drifted landwards and ran on tho breaker.*,
where she grounded and thumped heavily
for some time. At length a heavy sea
struck hor and aha gave way, parting almost
entirely in two. The p ssengers (about 2.>
in number) clung to the wrecked steamer
until daylight, when fortunately the steamer
Evorgladc eamo up and lowered her life
boats and took thorn all otT. Many - of the
passengers camp on the Everglade to this
eity yesterday. We nre pleased to loam
that no lives were lost, and that the passen-
girs speak in the highot terms of the cool
ness and efficiency or Capt McNelty in the
hour of peril as a commander. A compli

not occur, nnd under a sound system”of
national finance they would disappear for
ever. Under the existing system, when
the gold contained in gold coin is more
valuable in the market as bullion than it is
worth as coin, it U exported as merchandise
in which case we arc deprived of its legal
tender, and then the rise in discounts stran
gles the home trade. This is the prinoip
which we see in operation at present, but
this evil would disappear at once if, instead
ot putting an arbitrary value upon gold by
act of parliament, we allowed it to fluctuate
in price according to the law of supply and
demand, like any otherarticles of commerce.
.Sweep away at once the cumbrous machin
ery ot the hank charter. Let the Crown
resume in prerogative of creating a nation*
al.paper money bas:d on the annual taxa
tion of the country. With this money the
Crown would pay it-* deht3 ( and when the
Crown became creditor to the public it wot Id
take hack its own money in acquittance of
taxes.
The money and taxes would exactly
balance each other, and tho former would
pass out of circulation as the latter were
discharged. One of the great virtues of
this national paper money would be, that
it would always be floating amongst our
selves, and discharging the exclusive pur
pose for which it was called into existence,
its non-liability to export would save the
drain for gold, for the efllux of gold is the
fundamental cause of our misfortunes. By

From Texas,
A joint resolution, requesting their Sen
ators and instructing their Representatives
in Congress, to urge the passage of a law
for raising of a regiment of Rangers, for pro-'
taction of the frontier from Indian depreda
tions, has patted the Texas Legislature.—
The Galveston news says:
“ The increasing frequency oflndian out
rages upon our border population, and the
inadequacy ol the present military force of
the United States to repel and punish the
marauding savages, demand the immediate
action of the Government, and we trust the
importance of tho subject will be so appar
ent to the President, that he will devote a
portion of his first annual message to it.
The Belton Independent records further
Indian depredations in that vicinity. On
the 11th they stole and drove away over
one hundred horses. One cavallado of
about eighty in number were takon from
within three miies of Gateaville, the county
scat. A party had started in pursuit. Mr-
Lewi?, son-in-law of Moses Jackson, Esq ,
was killed on Pecan Bayou, near Camp
Colorado, by Indians, or men disguised as
such. Others had bean attacked by them,
and thero^was a general disposition among
the settlers to leave, unless immediate as
sistance was sent to them.
Crime in New York-
The following citract from the I’resont
ment of the Gram) Juy; made on Saturday
hy tho Court of Sessions of New York city,
form a sail eoinmoutary upon the etate of so
ciety in the “Metropolis
That th re ia in the city at the present
time an alarming increase of crime, which
demands at tho bands of those in authority
a mest proiflpt and decisive action.
The unusual number of case? od tho calen
dor presented to us show that a large m»
jority of them are committed hy the youth
of our cityfrum 15 to 20 years of age—some
of which are the most aggravating- In con
versation with some of them they .how a
perfect indifference to thoir fate having been
schooled in, and graduated from, houses that
aro a disgrace to our city—some of which
we have presented to the Court.
In reading in our daily papers of the mid
night and daily uesassinutions, murders,
highway robberies, burglaries, Ac., it bes
hooves this Grand Jury and others to call
upon tho city authorities and Police Com
missioners to increase their furee imme Irate
ly, with good und true men, for the protec
tion of the lives and homes of our citizens
I he habit of carrying concealed weapons
ah.nt the person, such as pistols, slung shots
dirk?, Ac.,is a crying evil in our communi
ty to which special attention is called. Of
a largo number of cases before us, we have
seen the youth end aged cripple nnd maim
ed for life by this unlawful and unwarranta
ble practice, which calls for our severest
cordcmnstion.
The Penitentiary on Blackwell's Island
at the present time is crowded with inmates,
a part of tbc female department heing'allot-
ted to the males: and unless a stop is put to
crime in our city, the prison must he enhir>

that Grmneaa of character, gn - ily and
