Tbu b this momentous, deeply agitated matter settled for e little white, at least, af ter a full, exhaustive; elaborate discussion, by the best talaat in the House, by a pre ponderating majority against it. It has been an exciting struggle indeed, and the whole State bos felt breathlessly interested io ils fiaai i-rae. Tie sopportcr* of the bill have b« from all the sections of Georgia’s un- traversed and unchecker d railroads desti tute of iotarnal impruvemeut, their agricul tural and commercial resources undeveloped laboring under marked disadvantage for want of c <o:rnercial fucililities. and pertrnac - iously and unwearyiogly clamorous for etyuul rights, privilege? and benefits with the res maiuing developed portions of Ihs Stale. The opponents of the measure have been the flourishing populous trade emporium* ef the State, Ibe two great coio'sal railroad monopolies and their tribatariee, well esta blished upon a s.un-l basis of remunerative trade, resulting from the enjoym-mt of ex traordinary commercial advantages, and whoee atnnal golden karve-ls would be m»- teria'ly decreased by the establishment of rival rood ; and all the lections lying imme diately upon the line, and deriving their value from the prosperity of these monopol ies. Which of the two great conflicting par- ties bare the best and most just foundation for tbeir etaitrs. I will not prelend to decide, it is’a matter requiring tbo combined aDd unbiassed wLdaai. talent, discrimination, statesmanship and palrioii.m of the legisla ture, ia their h.ghcst sovereun capacity, de- iiOtaritg fit the interests of tbe tcWr Com- oioowtalrii, ar.l b end by a solemn obliga tion to promote and advance tbe public \reaL Another cLsa bare voted ogainst the bill because they were opposed from principle to omnibus' measures, founded, as they a e, upon the iniquitous, eorrupiug system of • log rolling." They were un.villi'g to iup» port a measure which they condemned, to gam the uicc*» of one which they approved and some of tbe enterpr»:s contemplated in this bill they would saact.on under re- coi.- sidcratioas.

SraiNortiLD, Nor 30. W.T Tuckerman, formerly Treasurer cf the Eastern Railroad at Boston, was arr, si t'd last night at New Haven for mail rob bery. He is now in jsil and confessea hi* guilL Bostox, Nov: 30. The arrest of IVm. T. Tuckertban it is thought will explain the robbery onhe Ha- ran mail for the State of Maine, missing about the 21st of Nov ; also tbe mail from Portland for iV. Y, and the mail from Bos ton for N. Y., all missing on the New Ha ven land route about the same rime. Tho missing Havana mail contained about five hundred letters, one hundred of which were for merchants of Portland, and doubtless contained many remittances. The evidence against Tuckerman is deerr. •d conclusive, and it .s understood confess, es his guilt. Uis operations were mainly on Sunday nighl trains. Ue would take passage at New York with a large trunk, in which a carpet bag containing clock weights to make it heavy, and during the temporary absence of the baggage mastir he would steal a mail bag and depoait in his trunk. He acknowledges haring 3800 werth of stolen postage stamps. Five hundred dollars in bills on the Lee Bank oi Massachusetts were found upon him. The Philadelphia mail for Boston, with other*, being missed, the several Railroad Superintendants on the New York and Boston route, the Postmasters and Special Agent Holbrook, have been for several weeks on the alert, and hare now probably captured the robber. The amount of the robberies is supposed to be largo. Tucker man will be examined at New Haven to* morrow. Mobilx, Dec. 11, 1857.
