MOSDAY FEBRUARY 5, 1860.
CONGRESS
AA r D THE FREEDSDEN'I
BUREAU.
The announcement from Washington that
ail ihe Republican Senators voted afflrma-
tivtly on the passage of the bill introduced
by Mr. Trumbull of Illinois, to enlarge the
powers of the Frecdmap's bureau shows, we
think, a lamentable want of firmuess on the
part of some of the professed conservative
members in Congress. Mr. Doolittie availed
himself of that occasion to retract, by voting
for the bill, much that be had said, in his re-
c.-nt elaborate speech on restoration. If the
positions assumed by him in that spereh are
correct, then the bill is clearly a trespass
u jon the rights of the 8mtes and a flagrant
vi o'at ton of the Constitution. The theory oi
U;c indestructibility of the Federal Unton,
presented by. him in his able defence of Presi
dent Johnson's restoration policy, is in direct
antagonism with the assumption that the con
stitution authorizes any such intervention in
the affairs of the States, and the governments
ot the people, as is provided for in the Senate
bill. It can only be justified by the revolu
tionary doc r'n°, advocated by Mr- Stevens,
that the South is not in the Union, and it
was ibis doctrine that Mr- Doolittle opposed
in Ids speech.
Bit apart from the grave constitutional
objections to the measure designed to cn-
jar'e fbe powers of the Bureau, it is open to
just criticism upon other important points
entitled to serious consideration. The moral
effect of such a law would be injurious both
to the freedmen and the planters. The bi 1
provides that the Givernment shall feed,
clothe, shelter and doctor refugees and des-
timte frtediucu, and alto furnish them with
transportation. Tne provision is intended to
give only temporary relief to such treedmen,
but, prac'.ieally, it is a great induce
ment for tbc negroes to quit work
and become pensioners upon the bounty
of tbe Government. Many of them will feel
that it matters little whether they woik or
not, since they will be sure of a good living
iu any event. Instead of being urged to in
dustry by the lear ot want, they will really
be led to indolence by the promise of Gov
ernment rations. The bill is calculated to act
with equally bad effect in respect to planter.-.
It gives the Freedmen's Bureau almost abso
lute control in all matters concerning the rela
tions between the planters and tbe freedmeu,
and enables that institution, however unob
jectionable it may be as to the versonnal oi
its org tnizuiou, to dictate in matters that
should belong entirely to employer aud em
ployee. The result of such a policy would
naturally tend to make the planters anxious
to esc.tpe the surveillance of the Bureau, by
employing white laborers to supplant the
freedmen. The cost of the concern, accord
ing to the bill, would be another grave ob
jection to it. It provides, according
to tbe abstract published, for the ap
pointment of an Assistant Commis
sioner in each State, who shall have a salary
of live thousand dollars a year. E tch Assis
tanl Commissioner shall appoint sub Com
mis3!oncrs or agent3 to the extent of one for
. the Assistant Commissioners is allowed six
clerks, and each ot the county agents two
clerss. We can form some idea of the cost
of this plan, by considering wbat these agents
aione will cost in the matter ot salaiies.
It cannot but be seen by every intelligent
person, not biased by prejudice, that the
practical effect of the measure will be simply
to entail a heavy expense upon the Govern
ment ; to increase the discontent. of the freed
men, to give tbe planters more ground for
grumbling, nud to perpetuate an institution
tha; cannot be otherwise than objectionable
to the entire people of the South.
monopolist*. Upon the ootlapM of the rebellion the
President, In pursuance of the condliatoiy policy
which he hod adopted, pardoned numbers of t le moet
enterprising business men snd capitalists of the South
for the reason that it would the better enable them to
aid in the revival of Southern industry snd prodvc-
tion. Ono of the partners in the house of Trehnolm t
Oo. waa Hr. Wagner, a very efficient business mi n,
who partook largely in the vast prohta made by ita
monopoly, though the fact waa, of oourse, unknown to
the President.
“Mr. Wagner waa one of the first among the busi
ness men of the South who received the President’s
pardon. Mr. Trenholm was arrested, not ar e block
ade-runner, but an ex-member of the Cabinet of Jef
ferson Davis, but was released on parole."
The last proof that Wagner waa a skilful and suc
cessful blockade-runner waa this, that he ran tha
blockade of the Praaldent'a "exceptions” list

NICATION WITH AUOUSTA.
Trip or tha First Through Train.
We have already announced the re-opening of rail,
road communication with Augusta. We had the plea-
sure of being a passenger on board the train which
left this city On Thursday morning last, at half-past
seven o'clock, for Augusta. The day was delightful,
and the trip waa accomplished without the occurrence
of a single accident or detention to mar the enjoyment
of the auspicious occasion. The up train, under the
direction of that veteran conductor, Capt Pat. Whealan,
reached Millen precisely in sohsdule.time, the down
train from Augusta arriving precisely at the same mo
ment, thus completing the connection so long inter-
rupted by a most remarkable conjunction. At Millen
a considerable ooncourse of people of tha vicinity were
gathered to witness the interesting event of the first
psassge of ths cars over tbe track slnoe its destruction
by Sherman's force*, at the new dinner house erected
by our old Mend Bob Gray, near ths ruins of his old
mansion. A most sumptuous dinner was served
which gave tbe heartiest satisfaction to all who partook
of it. Even our old host aeemad to be rejuvenated—
ho was in excellent aplrlta, and aa a provider of crea
ture comforts, even excelled his achievements in for
mer days when he Justly earned the reputation of
hooping one of the beet wayside eating boueeslntbe
country.
At the junction, during the brief stay tar dinner, we
met Messrs. Maxwell, Duncan and Van Biccle, the
oontractors, who are engaged in the Herculean task of
reconstructing the road, and to whoae persevering en
ergy In the midst of difficulties and embarrassments
of the most disoouraging character the public are in
debted for ita present advanced state of completion.
From them we learned that the work on the main line
to Macon is rapidly progreasing, and that with reason-
ably fair weather they confidently expect to have the
entire line of road completed and In running order
early In May next. All the bridges between Millen
and Maoon are completed, and s large portion of the
ctobs ties are already on the line of the road. There
is no longer any embarrassment lor want of labor or
timber, and nothing now prevents the steady and rapid
progress of the work, whioh the public may reat as
sured will be pressed forward with vigor.
In passing over the new track we were pleased to
observe the thoroughness of the work and the smooth
ness of the paseage of the oars. When the "roonstruc-
tion” of the Central Railroad is completed, it will be
what it formerly was, one of the beet and safest lines
of railroad in tbe oountry.
Tbe importance of the re-opening of communi
cation with Auguste by whioh our city is placed again
in railroad connection with the railroads of the inte
rior of the State is already felt snd duly appreciated by
the business public, not only in the reduction of
freights bat in tbe renewed facilities of intercourse
with distant points.
The regular schedule of two daily trains between
this city and Augusta will commence to-day, and as
will be seen by the advertisement in another column,
with a view to afford tha business men of Savannah to
renew former associations with thair friends in Au
gusta, on Wednesday next tickets to go to that city
and return within three days will be told for $6. As
the same favor will no doubt be extended to our Au
gusta friends, it ia to be hoped that the liberality of
Mr. W&dley, ths pnblio spirited President of the Com
pany, may have the effect to promote a very genera 1
reunion of tbe business fraternity of the lister cities
of the Savannah.
SPhClAh NOTICES.
LETTER FROM THE CAPITAL.
{Special correspondence of the Savannah tin.; n
Mu.ledgevh.le, January 30, 1806.
Editor Herald: The election for judges of tbe
Supreme Court which has attracted hither eo many
candidates and engendered eo much bitter fcelir^,
passed off on Friday last, with what result you have
already been informed. To the surprise of all, Hon.
Dawson A. Walker of Dalton, was elected for the long
term, instead of either Hon. B. F. Lyons or General
Henry L. Banning. Mr. Walker silently worked hi*
way into the affections of the members, and achieved
a viatory over Gen. Benning contrary to the opinion of
almost every one. We thought that the contest would
lie between Banning and Lyons. The noted bank
decision of Gen. Banning when he sat on the supremo
b-.-nch is all that Is left by which to account for. his
defeat: for that lie is an eminent juriat none will deny,
and moreover he had military prestige, which has
hardly ever failed in this legislature to carry am to
the summit ot his aspirations.
Tne House has already pasaad a bill, which If it be-
oome a law, will materially damage the interests of the
railroad* of this State. The bill proposes to restrict
each railroad to tho charges for freight and passage to
the rai03 allowed tho Georgia road; and forbids them
to hire a car or a portion of a car at moro than a cer
tain amount, altogether too low for prosperous man
agement. The last provision affect* express com-
ponies, and would probably provent any new express
company from commencing business In the State
The passago of this bill by the House has alarmed
thaso who have bean placed in keeping of the railroads
aa well as these in charge of express companies, and
ro ore sen ta lives of both these intorost* havo been her*
to ffiduco the Senate 10 pause in the career of damage
to theso grc-Lpublic institutions. It is thought that
the Senate will be more just, and modify, If it doe*
not entirely reject the propositions of the House.
Tne only apeoch wo have had oi a public character,
during the session, was ono delivered by Hon. Joshua
Hih. in the hail of the House of Representatives, last
ovjging, on tho very eve of the election for United
Etatjc Senators. I will send you a synopsis of the
spsacli, which occupied two hours in Its delivery.
Mr. Gilson of R.chmond, has introduced into the
Senate bills for the relief of the stockholders of the
banUs of this State. Ono bill proposes to relieve tho
stallholders from personal liability for the debts of
the banks; and another to relieve tho banks from debt*
inca-rod by tho banks, for tbe purpose oi aiding in
tie prosecution of the war. Theootwo moaauree sworn
to be just, and though they may meet with opposition,
1 think tncy will pass ihe Legislature.
Tho woaihor has been most delightful during our
Btay in taia place. Indeed, aa far up In Georgia as
this place, scarcely any winter haa been felt. An early
spring augurs unfavorably for a good fruit yoer.

“C Z A IL.”
This horse was raised In Southern Russia by a Cir
cassian soldier. Like ttie Arabians, the nomadic
people of his tribe lurrn the strangest ami most In
violable attschniehis to their unexcelled horses —
They make their favorite coursers llielr special com
panions, and train them to be very fleet ami Intelli
gent. This Circassian, during one of his _ws"'*-<"'ing
, -. j uotu.v, mm soon found eager pro-
losers for the pnrchnse of his splendid horse. At
ast he consented to pari with him. lie was brought
before the purchaser, and there ensued a scene that
lias been used aa a subject of a poei’a pen. At a sig
nal fto n him, the horse,
*' With ttowing tall and flying mane,
WUh nostrils never stretched by pain,
Mourh bloodless to the bit or rein ;
And feet that Iron never shod,
And flanks unscarred hy spur or rod.
The hounding horse—the wild, the free—
Like wave that dashes on the sea,
Came proudly thundering on.”
There storid the noble horse, the admiration of
every beholder. No steed of Lite Tartar, or Ukraine
or Arab breed could be more beautifully formed.—
Never did Landseer or Rosa Bouheur see or Imagine
a more perfect animal.

The recent proceedings against blockade-running
companies at Charleston led the Washington Intelli
gencer to give the following curious particulars of
acme men engaged in that businoe* during tha war:
“In the early part of the war, while our blockade
was inefficient, the firm of Trenholm, Frasier A Co.
had an exclusive right from the Confederate Govern!
mem to export cotton. This monopoly was granted to
them on account of tho facilities which the Liverpool
broach ci the linn possessed for shipping such sup-
plica an the Government needed. The house ot Treo-
hoim A Co. purchased cotton In the South at eight
cent- c pound. Confederate currency, tod sold it
-abroad at nearly a dollar in gold, and also paid large
jronis upon the goods they imported. Subsequently
rhe rebel Government enlarged the privilege of ex-
porting cottou, tho risk having meanwhile become
g.cater by reason of the vigilance and number of our
cruisers. A number of companies then engaged in
the business, and among them the CUicora, in Somti
Carolina. ‘" " "
