UANKiao "i ULKOaD AND COMPANY. i of Wednesday last we an- r ,ult of the stockholders’ eleo- i the following gentlemen were elected Directors of that Company ; \\ f). Johuston, J. J. Waring, John ff.

It will be gratifying to the public at large to know that the new Beard comprises busi ness and linaucial taleuts, energy and per gonal inllueuce of the highest character, which is a sufficient guarantee of a wise and pradent management oi the affairs of the Company and of an energetic prosecution of the repairs of the road to a speedy comple te Mr. Wadley, the new President, was % many years as General Superintendent of the road, intimately associated with its late President, R. R Cuyler, Esq., and partici pated with him in the labors of conducting the Company to the condition of unexampled prosperity in which it stood at the opening of the war. He is emphatically a practical railroad man, combining with skill and ex perience great persoual energy, which qualifications pecullaily At him for the duties ot bis new position. We feel that we are not promising too much when we say that the public may be assured that under ■ihe auspices of the new Board the work ot reconstruction and repair of the track of the road will be pressed forward with ail possi ble speed to completion, and that the aflairs of the Company will be managed in such a aniuner as to give public satisfaction and ensure its highest prosperity. We learn that Mr. Geo. \V. Adams has re signed his position as Geueral Superintend ent of the Company, to take effect at such time as his withdrawal will not be prejudi cial to the interests of the Company. On accepting his resignation the Board passed a omplimentary resolution, tendering to Mr. Adams their thanks for ‘'bis long and faith ful service as General Superintendent of the Company.” In this resolution the Board jjave the hearty concurrence of the majority of our citizens, by whom Mr. Adams is re spected and esteemed as a worthy gentle man and laithful and efficient officer. His connection with the Railroads of Georgia commenced in 1838 He was for a period of eight vears General Superintendent of the Southwestern Railroad, which position he resigned at the earnest solicitation of the late President, R. R- Cuyler, to take that ot Gen era Superintendent of the Central Rail Road ;□ November, 1858. The Board of Direct ors of the lormer Company, on his retire ment, voted him, as a testimonial of their appreciation of his services, a Costly set of silver plate. Relic* oft lie Bombardment of gavannnn- A countryman standing on the sidewalk on Bay street near the Custom House, a few days since, was attracted by the operations of a gang of negroes on the other side of the street, who were engaged with shovels clean ing oat the gutter. Every now and then a negro would stoop down and pick up a can non ball and throw it on one side, and then resume ids digging for a minute or sp, when be would pick up another ball and throw it down in like manner. All the negroes were similarly engaged. “ Well, well, exclaimed the country man, “I never had no idee that the Yankees piled so inauy cannon balls and bumbahtlU into old Savaaoab before. Why, they moat made 'em whilzz about the old burg like a swarm ol bumble bees when -they can dig ’em out of the ground as fast as that. No wonder the swellheads gin in at last. ” Hia curiosity having been raised to the highest pitch he walked across the street to get a nearer view of the interesting process of exhuming the Yankee bombshells. As he approached the gang of negroes he saw what he had not observed before, that a chain was attached to each shot, and on a little closer examination he discovered that the other end ot the chain was attached to Ihe leg of the negro. His aatonishmeul waa now greater than ever. He looked on for a minute in silent amazement- At length, as one of the ne groes near him picked up his ball and threw it on the giound again the length of the chain to the right ot him, he ventured to ask: “I say, buck, what upon yeath is you all doin' with them cannon balls?” “Jiat takiu care of ’em,” replied one of the negroes. “Well, what have you got ’em chained to yaur legs that away for ?” “So the cussed rebs can’t steal ’em, ” plied the intelligent freedinaD. ‘ Heaps t f thieves about here boss.” Well well,” said the unsophisticated indi vidual from the rural districts, “I’ve hearn Savannah waa a monstrous thieving place, hut I didn't spose cannon balls had to be chained to people’s legs to keep ’em from being stole.” To prevent the repetition of such imposi tious upon the credulity of unsuspecting per sona the auihorities have had the chaps wLo sport the ball and chain in our streets label led with conspicuous placards.

The Atlanta papers record more scrapes in that place. A desperate affray occurred at Barnesviile, in this State, December 26. in which a Mr. Taylor, ol Chambers county, Alabama, was killed, and also another geutleman named Pounds. The attack was made upon Tay lor, with intent to kill, as is supposed. Tay lor, in defence, killed one ot his assailants named Pounds, but was immediately shot tn several places by another Pounds, brother of the gentleman whom Taylor killed. Mr. Taylor died shortly after he was'shot. A imii named Ennis was killed in Atlanta Monday night; and another named Harris wounded. The Columbus Sun is tryiug to impre=s upon tbe authorities of that city, that dead animals iu the streets are unhealthy. The river at Augusta marked fourteen feet seven inches ou Friday last. At the county election, held in Augusta Jan. 3d, John D- Smith was chosen Sheriff', Oen La Fayette McLaws Clerk of the Supe rior and Inferior Courts, and John P. C. W uitehead Solicitor General. The Macon Messenger learns from a relia ble source that the musteriDg officer will be in Macon during this week for the purpose ,t musteriDg out the 137th regular (colored) nriment now on duty at that post The Messenger says the whites or negroes inu! re move from the neighborhood of the encamp- .ment. The Columbus Enquirer says a gentleman af that city has received a letter irom Hon. R Toombs, dated Havana, Dec. 22d. Mr. Toombs was in good health, and was highly '(leased with Cuba. Mrs. Toombs had joined him. The Provisional Governors of the Southern 3tates have all been paid at the rate of $3,000 per annum. Gov.

The following suggestions from the Nash ville Union and American, one of the ablest and best ot our exchanges, will commend themselves to every humane and beuevolent heart: ‘We frequently meet with poems and other tributes to the ‘Confederate Dead.’ Whilst the dead who sacrificed their lives for the principles which were presented to them in the late war are entitled to our admira tion and gratitude, and to a perpetual place in the memory of the Southern people, there is yet a living duty resting upon us. The widows and orphans now suffering for the necessaries of life and thousands ot maimed ; survivors call for our respect ami sympathies Iu all of the L -gislatures of tbe Southern States we have witnessed with gratification movements looking to the amelioration of these classes. Our failure places our crip ples beyond the pale of assistance by the Federal Government. No pensions, no boun ties, no land grants inure to them. The de- crepid Confedejate soldier must rely upon the kindness of friends. The empty sleeve and the absent leg must be supplied by the kindly offices of the more fortunate. Hap pily, in this work of chanty there need enter no political question. “The war is over, and whilst the govern ment can take care of the unfortunates who were maimed in its defence, those of tht? other side fall upon the list which addresses itself to the feelings ol’ abstract humanity and private charity. There are cases in which the benevolent feelings of human na ture are enlisted without regard to the causes of the misfortune. Th°re is scarcely a city, town, village or hamlet iu the Sooth iu which there are not representatives ot the miseries aud misfortunes of war. It is due to the l(etter impulses of human nature that these sufferers be relieved. Let us not forget these duties and obligations. The cold and cheerless winds oi December remind u-t for cibly of these claims, aud enforce them upon our consideration and attention. Let not the higher and kindlier qualities of our nature fail to assert themselves while there are so many objects of our tender regard.” Id this connection we note with pleasure the esiablLhment of a Southern Soldiers’ Re lief Association in Memphis, with some of the most estimable men of Tennessee as a board of trustees, who have assumed control of the enterprise. The Appeal, in alluding to this institution makes some touching allusioos to the gallant men who become maimed for life in our be half, and who now deserve well of our peo ple Where can the shattered victims of the lost eause look for support but to those who hoped and worked with them? .Whose hearts should warm to them so tenderly, as we Who came out of the battle with stroug limbs and unbroken health ?
