He knew of i Ihu circumstances. They were not raised fur the ’ j proteclion of the Cherokee Counties. There warn three companies in the Urigudu from the I county ho had the honor lo represent. One r company had been mised to p olocl that county, and belonged to a regiment which had been raised by order of Gov. Behley, hut not a man had ever been culled out. When it was known the regi -1 ment was not wanted, that company had been dts ' handed. Alicrwards tiensral Nelson made a call, and m three weeks die whole brigade was ready 1 lo march. Gov. Hchicy had nothing lo do wtlh it. Gentleman say they are willing lo nppropn - ale money to lake them back, and in die next I breath say die appropnalion is unconstitutional. Ho did not understand this. If the Senate would appropriate money lo lake diem back, ho thought I - the Senate could appropriate money lo carry them on Ihcir march to Florida.

It f was rial unconstitutional. Gentlemen need ap -5 prebend no difficulty on tbaljtcore. Gov.

He i argued, that this was such a c ontingency as the I contingent fund was calculated lo meet; as would authorise the Governor lo draw his warrant *n ■ the contingent fund without instructions from • the legislature fie did not feel himself author , tsed lo vote a donation, and he placed the item on other grounda. (Ts be Continued.) _____ CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. I ’ AIWIVIA. Tlturaclny Evening,Nov. 30« Shortly anterior lotho recent election for Gov ernor of this State, the Southern Recorder and 1 Georgia Journal both expressed a conviction lhat in consequence of the witholding of the last in , stalment of the Surplus Revenue duo to the Stale the Contra! Hank would he unable lo complete the distribulion lo the counties, which had just been commenced by that institution. Dr. Fort, lb* President of llio Dank, fearing that such an impression among the people would operate un favorably to tbe election of his friend and patron Gov. Schley, in the counties which had nol yet received ibeir distributive portion, professed lo be very indignant, and declared through a letter to the public, published in the Standard ol Union, that Ibe Hank was able, and Would carry out tbe distribution, without the aid of Ihe remaining in stalment of the'Stir,plus Ravenue. In order lo do this the Hank was compelled to borrow *230,000 ol some of other Hanks of the State, for w hich it pays interest at the rate of seven per cent. This amount however not being sufficient, the Hank line been compelled lo resort again to the same expedient and for that purpose the sanction of the Legislature is sought,authorizing the Directors of that Institution lo borrow $ 100,000 more. The resolution to that olfecijhas passed the Senate and is now before the House for consideration. The Stale has thus become a borrower of funds at 7 per cent; which it loans out <0 its citizens at 8 per cent; and ti e boasted ability of the Bank to carry out tbe distribution without Ihe last instal ment of the Surplus Revenue, consists merely in its ability to borrow money money upon the cred. it of the Slate. The first question which presents itself for our consideration is, whether the Directors of the Bank have any legal authority under its charter to borrow money ! If they can lawfully borrow one thousand dollars, they may lawfully borrow one hundred millions ! If they can pledge Ihe 1 faith df tho Slate for 230,000 dollars, they may under the »7 m 0 sulllori, y » ,ld P ower pledge » for an amount sufficieu.' 10 bind all ,he P ro P rr, . v and people of the State, and exei.J* 0 * mortgage upon them and all that they possess to seed' 6 I,s ’ repayment! The Central Banki- the property o: the State—nay, it is the Treasury of the State itself in tbe shape of a bank of discount and de posiu; the faith of the Slate is pledged for the re demption of every bill which il issues, and it is authorized to issue its own hills only la Ihe a mount of its actual fimdt on hand, cither in specie or the notei of solvent banks. The bills of a bank when issued, become debts duo by the bank—and if the Directors of the Central Bank had no legal authority under its charter lo issue their town notes for the $230,000, for want of the funds to predicate that issue upon, we ask what j right have they lo create any other description of debt against the bank to tbit extent? Can they thus evade Ihe charter and involve the Stale lo an indefinite and unlimited amount at their own dis cretion! But il is said that the debt thus incur red by borrowing this money is lo be discharged in bills ol exchange, ala fulureday! These bills may be dishonored whom they are presented, or j those upon whom they arc drawn may hava fail j ed, and the Central Bank will thus he subjected, ; either aa drawer or first endorser, to damages for non-payment, and in addition lo this the holder of the bills will, cither in the event of non-accep. Unce oi non-payment have as perfect & complete a rightto demand payment,of them from the Bank in specie as he would to demand it for the bills of the Bank itself. In every view which we can take ! of this mailer, we look upon this act of the Di rector# of that Bank, as a most unwarrantable assumption of authority and dangerous to the rights of the people in the extrema. If they can thus pledge the faith in the Smie and bind it for the payment of whatever sums they choose to bor row upon iucredit,for whateverpurpoaea, tho mo n»V power of the State is elloclually in Ibeir hand -the people become the ►laves oflhcir will.and are subject lobe taxed loan unlimited extent lo raise the means lo discharge w’mever debts they may Choose to create! Nay .they may just a* rightfully b orow money lobudd rail roads and dig canals so, the hvnefil of the people,aa they can borrow j ( t 0 j cn j out for the convenient* of the people! p or ,, ,i lpr purpose il is « debt created, for ffi* pjy m „„ of , which they make the funda.meansand faith of dm j Btatv liable, and if they list* iha legal right * p 0 *- fl ■> rfIJSUM Uvtl t 4 '. w> kolivW ll* *in V lO len.lout again equal'.> nil and ample U their j po.ver to dclrrmine ll.v expediency of borrowing l , it to iovert in roads a:nl cxiub!

SIR. —We invite your attention lo the rail road line,for northern and southern travellers,! (trough the state of Virginia. The completion ol the Rich mond and Fredericksburg rail road, and the highly successful operation of that and tho Petersburg rail road during the pa.t summer, has rendered this an economical, certain and agreeable route. Such a connection exists belweon the lines on these rail roads, and th, llallifax, Wilmington and Charleston steamboat line, ibat this route to tho north,and particularly lo Washington city, has ad vantages ol a marked kind over all others. Arriving at llallifax in a little more than two days after leaving Charleston, you may lake your seat the next morning to Gary’s Depot, at the junction of the Petersburg, and the Portsmouth and Roan oke rail roads. By taking the cars for Petersburg at this point, you arrive there tho same afternoon and in Richmond at an early hour next morning. Leaving Rijhmoiid immediately, you breakliist in Fredericks burg, and ,wiih but nine miles stage travelling, ar rive in Washington by steamboat the same aitor noon. An advantageous connection also exists between the lines of these rail roads and the llallifax. W it minglonand Charleston Steamboat Line. Arriving at llallifax in little more than two days after leaving Charleston The passenger may take his se«t the next morning lo Gary’s depot, at the junction of the Petersburg and the Portsmouth and Roanoke rail road Hy taking the cars for Petersburg at this point, he arrives there the same afternoon, and pro ceeds northward as ‘bdibre. The distance of tao hundred miles from the Roanoake to Washington, is thus comfortably pass ed in 21 houa The fare is sll. Passengers for the north can proceed lo Balti more ihe same evening they arrive in Washington, and reach Now York the next evening. The steamboat -navigation on this rou'o is closed for a shorter time in winter than on any route lu tho north, and is sometimes uninterr pled for ilic whole season.
