On .Saturday Evening last, all things Laving been gotten in readiness, an Engine, called the “Georgia,” was put upon the Rail Road for the purpose of christening the Road, and testing ho r capacity for travelling. The success was com plclc. The most sanguine expectations were realized. Never did an engine move bettor. About live o’clock ,hc steam was ready—the engineer was _^ C vety thing was ready—she starts — “shq’n o ff” M id the old stockholder, whose ncart beat high with anxiety—“she’s oil” cried the crowd— “O whack” said Faddy-—“whoop-p*” shouted tho doys, ‘‘site goes it,” and away she wont, puifi.ng and blowing like tho young .hurri cane of lire West; dashing along upon her iron pathways with the speed of tho wild horse of the desert, she soon disappeared from tho eyes of the gazing multitude. In a few minutes she return ed in the same stylo of magnificence in which she departed and was greeted by the same ex pressions of admiration and satisfaction. After this, the engineer ran her several times backwards and forwards for a mile or two out of tho city fully testing her ability to perform the noble and laudable services for which she was created. Wc have no idea of puffing the establishment Up on this occasion,as we expect to lake a ride in a few days,when catching the aerial spirit of this (lying steam-dragoon, wc shall waft our readers into the realms of fancy, and—and—then wc shall give them “ile puff extraordinaire.” von the chronicle anh sentinel. As in all probability, the Rail Road Dank building about to be erected, will bo the last public building that will be built in a central part of tire City, it is proposed to have a clock placed upon it (by subscription) as the present cloek is too remote cither for the commercial part of lire community or the convenience of the citizens in general. FOR THE CIIUONICI.It /Nil SENTINEL. Mr. Jones—ln looking over the statements of the Ranks in their returns to lire Governor, —a few plain common sense reflections crossed my mind, and in reconsidering them 1 think they arc based in truth; they may not be general in their application, but certainly they apply, closely to very many—and times that have parsed has amply proved tho fact. it cannot cither serve the interests of the Dank—(some of thorn at least) or tho individual holders of stock to publish their names—lor I lie community arc excellent hands to guess pretty near how much a man is worth, and they do not miss very far, generally. Now when we hoar, and read, of Mr. So and So, —holding ids one, two, or five hundred shares of stock in this, that, and the other Bank, —the fust question is where in tho world did ho gel the money to pay in tile whole of his stock—when public estimate on his means perhaps wonld not set him up for half tlio amount—if all he possessed in the world was sold. Now surely here is one of the base ment stories in tho great house of difficulties; men have run mad—with their fashionable slocks, fancy stocks, —and other odious names which never ought to apply to a correct, substantial float ing medium for the good of this trading wotld. In the good old days of Banking times, —the surplus money of a substantial citizen formed the stock upon which an issue was made—would to God some such regulations were now among us —to save the honest upright citizen—who has something to lose by the pulling and swelling of stock-jobbers.

We would request our cotton planters to pay some attention to tho following paragraph from the Baltimore Patriot. If wc all encourage the manufacture and wear of nankeen cotton cloth, j we may render ourselves independent of forcign | ers, to the amount of several million- of dollars, j of light materials for summer use, especially | when cloth pnado of this nankeen is so neat and | cheap.

One great advantage the American Nankeen has over all other Nankeens is, ink can I be extracted by the use of lime or lemon juice and salt, without changing the color of the cloth.

The story of the attachment of the fixtures and carriages of the Greenwich rail road for a debt nf§1,500,000 to a contractor named Mackin- 1 tosh, is revived.

In one instance, a small planter, whose hopes ran high last winter, and who owned twenty-two slaves, sold three of his best men, for which ho had actually paid §3200, for §BSO, to buy pork and corn tor the remainder. In many places, heavy planters compel their slaves to fish for the means of subsistence, rather than sell them at such ruinous rates. There are at this moment thousands of slaves in Mississippi, that know not where their next morse is to come from. Tho master must be ruined to save the wretches from being starved. Our Louisville correspondent writes that the Bank of Kentucky has made an arrangement to take at par tho notes of the Tlantcrs’ Dank of Tennessee, payable at tho Bank ofLoutsiana. A singular circumstance connected with this step on the part of the Bank of Kintucky, will show how apt men are to step beyond the rules of pro priety in evil times. A merchant of high stand ing bought up nearly §10,600 of the Tennessee paper at a heavy discount, a day or two before the declaration of the resolution by the Bank ol Kentucky to take it at parr One of the firm to which Ibis gentleman was attached, was a direc tor in the said Bank, and so goon as the deter mination was made known, tho sobers of the Tennessee paper saw the object of the purchaser. A great excitement prevailed,—so much so as to call forth from the Bank Director a disclaimer of any knowledge of the affair, and to produce a prompt refunding of the Tennessee paper so pur chased. When public opinion can thus put down unfairness and treachery, it is in a whole some slats. Wo hope the people of Louisville will escape the ravages of the present storm. They deserve an exemption. The currency of the State in the worst possi ble condition, We see the Banks refusing to pay silver, and proposing to shave their own pa per. A gentleman the other day at Natchez, hav ing §3OOO of the Planters, Bank, demanded the specie for the same. Itwas refused. United States paper at 1 per cent, premium, or England ■ sovreign valued at _§s and current for §4 87, ! were offered. Thus is the honest dealer compelled to use the predated rags oftbo Bank, or forced * to pay anexorbitant premium for that which is ! convertable into par value. Wc do not know i what this means but it savors very strongly of f preying on tbe vitals of tho public at a moment when the great csl distress prevails, caused too by tho importer management of those very h* solutions. „ Wood used for steamboats along the river has fallen to throe dollars per cord; but there will 1 shortly he no ] boats to purchase it at even the t price. When the largest class bouts daily bring i ing down from 50 to 100 tons offreight only, the prospect is indeed gloomy. Such arc some of tho principle items of news 1 from tho interior. j From the N. V. Daily Express, April 27. For three days past, the number of failures have diminished astonishingly; indeed, only two or three of minor importance have taken places. There is a wonderful change in tho feelings of the 1 leading administration men,particularly thosejwho , were most noisy and clamorous in gelling away ' j the deposits, and breaking down the United States , j Bank. Many of these have fallen in the general calamity, and become ruined by the very measures \ I they so warmly advocated. Others are free to ! admit they were mistaken, and we believe not ’ one can be found who is an advocate of former I measures. From the New York American April 23. The Meeting of cue Merchants last even r ing at the Masonic Hall, was a remarkable one I for the vast numbers assembled—the entire dc ’ corum of the proceedings,—and especially for! • tho deep tho’ subdued and restrained excitement 1 which evidently pervaded the mighty mass. It ’ i was a spectacle that could not be looked upon ‘ | without emotion; that of many thousand men, 3 trembling as it were on the brink of ruin, owing ‘ Ito the measurer, as they verily believe, of their 4 own government, which should be their friend \ instead of their oppressor—and yet meeting with deliberation and calmness; listening to a tmrra s live of their wrongs, and the causes thereof, adop -1 iting such resolutions as were doomed judicious, 1 and then quietly separating to abide the result of e their fir m but respectful remonstrances. e From the AT. Y. Daily Express April 26. e The meeting of Merchants last night was one v ,of the largest meetings of any kind over held in I'this city. The morn will contain about tour - thousand persons; it was so crowded, that trot . ha t the number that wi-htid tc ! c p>. ;it, could even enter the pcitstl s—Tho Resolutions adop ted, have given general satisfaction, they are firm, dignified and to the point, clothed in such lan guage as becomes us as a suffering community, amt at the same lime such as tbe President ought to hear. The Committee include sixty of our most highly and respectable merchants, and those whp it is hoped will repair to the scat of Government. Would it not be well if the Mer chans of Philadelphia and Baltimore would as- . seuible at once, and appoint similar meetings,' that Committees from those p aces might bo in readiness to repair to Washington together, and I lima lay hefjra the President the Commercial, condition of the covintiy, and the femcd.es ne cessary for an improvement. Therejarethree dis tinct objects point a) out in the Resolutions.—. Tbe first is, That the Treasury Otdv.r bo re pealed. Tire second, That Congress be convened. And ihe tjiird. That sals on bands be suspen ded until January next. From die N. _Y.

Mr. Burke, you may know, is President of the Union Bank here. Rumor says he failed for 20 millions. It can scarcely be so much, though the amount is tremendous. Many smaller houses will fail in consequence, both here and in Natchez. If all the present crop of cotton here and in the country were sold for 10 cents cash, it would ■ not pay Half the debt into which these specula -1 tors have plunged themselves and the people. t Produce of all kinds is falling rapidly. For 1 cash in large parcels, Flour may be had for §5,50 - —Lard 6 cents—Mess Pork, §15 —Sugar, 5 cts. 1 —Coffee, 9a 9 j cents, and so of all ather articles, f The St. Louis steamboats will all lay up on their return, so little .business have they to do. ’ Many of them have been seized for debt, as well ■ as those belonging to Nashville and Louisville. 1 A merchant yesterday to whom was consigned ■ a cargo ot Pork, refused to pay the freight thcro * on, §llO0 —he paid on account §SOO, and offered to give up the Pork if the money was refunded. ■ Such things will convince you of the scarcity s of money. ■ Tiro news of the Mexican squadron you have 1 already. Nothing else of moment to communicate, except that the hanks are offering and paying 2 j per 2 cent for specie. The currency take the notes, 5 say of one of them, and drain out tbe specie, and I sell it to the same Bank for the premium. Largo ‘ dealings have occured in this way. Thus have ‘ the Banks become the fleeced. > Yours, &c.* s From the New York Herald. f MONEY MARKET, I TiiuasuAT, April 27. . Tho small patch of sunshine produced by the i nows from England is succeeded by the same ; gloom and despondency which have pervaded i every avenue of business for the last two months. United States Bank stock, and almost every other n the list, fell back to their old rates,fand some 0 j ,‘hera lower than ever. We have had a large pubh xneeting on the present distress, but its ef fects ot.’ t * lc state ot tlle mone y market would ap pear to ac.' g' oom to despondency, and despon dency to gk’'* ln- A groat mao7 ol ’J cctl °n3 are raised to the Com mitted formed at Masonic Hall. Instead of be ing composed enth.e.’y a particular description or class of traders, if is asketl ' vh f mechanics were not mixed with it. 1 " “"'h.V they should have been deprived of an oppL' l ’ ,ul J , * , y Lying their grievances at the footstool id power! Be that as it may, there is no help for • 4 JIOW - What is done cannot be undone. Today,”' B'o great mass of the committee will proceed to Washington. What will they do! what can they ' d°! The present terrible reaction will have its w. 1 y- It would really appear as if nothing cof'-d sta y its progress. No now failures were annou. ”' cet ' yesterday, but fears are entertained that we sh. '“ only have a pause for a short time. All the ef fects of tho banks and the state government have been directed to the resuscitation of tiro foreign exchange, but our domestic exchanges are in a more dilapidated condition than they were ever known in the history of this country. Many houses have failed purely from the derangement of the internal exchanges. Wo have heard of solvent firms that had funds at their credit in southern banks, and yet, for want of a domestic exchange-system, they could neither draw nor get remittances, so as to meet their engagements here. Even bank cheeks from some of the oldest batiks in the south have been protested for want of funds, or means to send funds to this quarter. No commercial country was ever in such a state of derangement as ours is at this moment in the internal exchanges. What can the Exe cutive do ! What can the Merchants’ Commit tee demand! If tho Specie Circular should bo revoked, that will not re-organise our domestic exchanges, or re-establish any system to carry on what commerce may yet exist beyond the mildew ot failure. Nothing short of u meeting of Congress should be the demand of tho mer chants. And when they do meet, that body ought immediately to create a new system of do mestic exchanges. Thodeposito bank system is a signal and a deplorable failure. There must be some general system created to transmit funds safely and speedily Irom one quarter of tbe court ■ try to tbe other, or tho remaining commerce of tho nation will bo in jeopardy. To organise a new national bank might be beyond the present ability of the country, in the present depressed condition of credit and confi dence. We have banks enough. We only want a consolidation—an organization of tho banks already in existence. If the President and Congress will not recharler tho Pennsylvania , United States Bank, why not consolidate a num ber of state banks now in operation at various points of the country, and give them a new and fresh existence by a charter from Congress ! In the large commercial cities throughout the Un ion, we have state banks enough that would un ite at once,and take a,ncw charter from Congress, i In this mode, a system of internal exchanges—a . new national bank might he created in a week; ■ if Congress were at Washington, and would act. i The credit and lands of the government, of fered to such u consolidated confederacy, would ; b ■ a sufficient inducement for them to accept of a I new charter. i Unless some such measure bo carried into i cllcct as spccdly as possible, the whole commerce , of this country, banking system and all, will most ■ probably go by the board before tbe Ist of July or August. The measure we describe, may be perfected and carried into effort in a month. Un less it be done, well may wc tremble through t! |C whole months of May and June to receive tl»o j news from England. Wc do not believe ' s ' j possible for the Ametican houses in Eng!* 1 " 1 ! to sustain themselves by the aid of tho bank at Bng ■ land, unles our government also act cotemporane ously for tho recognizalion of affairs in this coun -1 try. Tho extraordinary fall in tl )0 price of 1 American exports would almost, of itself, form > an item sufficient to sweep them t° nothingness. It is, therefore, probably that il lC mcn " ho, for ' years havo been the managers ofjßtr foreign trade, 1 both in the United Stales and England, will be ‘ destroyed for ever. But if, Etc foreign trade should go by the board, ca» wu llot save our do mestic and coasting trade! *' are on the brink ! ‘ of new dangers—wo are in the jaws ot a fresh panic in tire middling lower ranks of busi ness—in all the coasbug and internal trade, un- less Congress be e.e'e'-l together, and act in the ; wav wc have pon J,t ’ 4 “ VI L at once and forever, ‘I The dcranger>i" nt ,lie sa * c, y fund and cx- changes, sprine- same general causes j ! th it produce lfiUS * : ‘-’1 t!:e south, rn and western branches of trade. The Ilouae of Assembly has! jusl passed a law, compelling each bank lo lake I the notes of all the oilier banka at par. A hue ami cry is raised against this wholesome law in 1 tile Courier and Enquirer, but unless it be carri- . ed into effect, the whole system ought lo tall The I safety fund banks receive the privilege of money. Shall they be permitted to refuse their own notes of each other t Preposterous ! The same svs- . , lem has been in operation in Boston for many \ years, and it is proved to be excellent in i-s effects, j COMTIERtIA L. AUGUSTA PRICES CURRENT.
