4 THE WEEKLY C'JROXICLE & SENTINEL. Thoughts. They come when the sunset Is bright on the mountain ; They come when the moonlight Is clear on the fountain ; At mom and even, By minutes and hours, Th»-y come from the forest, From birds and from flowers. They come when some token Os days past will rise, As a link to the present, And then they bring sighs; They come when some vision Os hope and of fears Rushes on to the future, And then they bring tears. They come when the sea mist. O’er ocean is rife, And tell of the shadows That hang o’er our life; They come when the tempest Its thunder and gloom. Spreads round, and they speak Os the earth and the tomb. They come when the ripple, Is low on the lake, And the plQver is nes ting Bv fountain and orake, And the twilight looks out, With gems on its breast, And thay whisper that all — Save themselves are at rest. They come when the light wind Is fanning the leaves; They come w’.en the flower cup The dew drop receives— By night s noont de silence, By day’s noontide hum. At all times, oh deeply And darkly they come. From, the Southern Recorder. Decisions Supreme Court, Milledgeville* May Term, 1848. Thomas F. Persons.

ADDRESS Os the Directory of the East Tennessee na<l Georgia Kailroad Company to the Public* By the authority of the Directory of the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Company, the Committee charged with the duty would respectfully solicit the attention of the citizens of East Tennessee, nnd of others interested, elsewhere, to a candid consideration of the facts, statements and suggestions, in the follow ing Address. It is well known, that about ten years ago a large amount of funds was expended on an East Tennessee work of improvement. We allude to the Hiwassee Railroad. Had that improvement been carried on to completion, as originally designed, Ithout the suspension that has taken place, East Tennessee would doubtless be reaping a rich harvest of prosperi ty. Embarrassments,however,ofone kind or an other, forced a suspension of the work. With its failure were crushed, for a time, the hopes of its most ardent friends ; and many of them were much injured and embarrassed in their pecuniary condition. Cast down, yet notcon quered, they have not ceased to struggle, and recently have given evidence, not to be mistak en, of their magnanimity and devotion to the cause of improvement. Popular clamor charg ed that there had been and an un pardonable waste of funds ; that the work had cost much more than it was worth ; and that new friends could not come into the partner ship on equal terms. To remove this difficul ty the Legislature of the Suite, at the request of the friends of the enterprise, passed a law authorizing and directing the valuation of the work done, in its present condition, and the valuation ol the paid stock in the Company to an equal amount with the valuation of the work. Mes-rs. Luke Lea. of Bradley, and David A. Deaderick. of Knox. Commissioners ap pointed by the State, arid Messrs. John Craw ford and David Cleage, of McMinn, Commis sioner* on the part of the individual Stockhol ders—all gentlemen of the first respectability, and in every way well qualified to discharge the duties rssigned them—after due and patient de liberation. have assessed and valued the work done on the road, in its present condition, al the sum of /our hundred a. d fifty-four thousand dollars, being just one-half of the amount ex pended up to the Ist of April. 1848-—the State losing one-half of her expenditures, and the individual Stockholders ■ ne-half of the amount paid in by individuals. It i» proper to remark that this reduction is not the work of the Directory the Committee represent. It was authorized and sanctioned by the State, through the representatives of the people in the Legislature, and by the assent of the individual Stockholders. The old Stockholders by this surrender of their interest, h..ve acted nobly, and have laid a broad ground for a great pub lic benefit. By this reduction it is readily seen that great advantages are presented, and will accrue to new Stockholders. By an amendment to the Charter, and with the assent of the Stockholders, the name of the Company is changed, and it now assumes and lakes the corporate *name and style of the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Com pany.” The Road is definitely located the whole distance from the Georgia line to Knoxville, a distance of ninety-eight miles The grading and masonry are completed from the Georgia line to Blair’s Ferry on the Tennessee river, a distance of sixty six miles, with the exception of a section of about three miles, not very hea vy work. A portion of the grading is also done on the North side of the Tennessee river. A good bridge is constructed across the Hi wassee river. The road, though left so long unprotected, is in a good state of preservation, audio repair it will cost very little. The work is all of the most substantial character. The road is well located. Its grades in no instance exceed 33 feet to the mile, and its most rapid curves have a radius of 3,100 feet. The origi nal estimate for its cost of construction was $ 11,500 per mile ; which, had the work pro gressed without suspension, it would not. it is believed, have exceeded. The same amount of work, the Committee believe, cannot any where be shown for as small an expenditure as liie amount of the present valuation, viz: $404.- 000. which includes also the real estate held, right ofway procured and all other assets of the Company. The Committee believe they may safely challenge a comparison of cost with any improvement in the Union of the same chsiac ler. taking the valuation of the Commissioners as the cost : and at which valuation the road is now put into the new Company. The State of Georgia, by a Legislative act. has granted to the Company the right and pow er to connect our road with the Western and Atlantic Railroad, al Dalton, or at any point we may select West of that. If we connect at Dalton, the connecting link in Georgia will be about 15 miles ; if VV est us the tunnel, it will be about 9 miles. So large a portion of the road being already graded, and ready for the superstructure, cap ital now vested will very soon yield a dividend: hence an investment in it is much preferable to one in a new enterprise. Moreover, the track of lie road is now well settled, and in good condition for the superstructure render ing it less liable to get out of repair, and much less expensive in keeping it up. Thus you see, fellow-citizens, the main diffi culties under which the Hiwassee Railroad Company have labored are removed, and the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Compa ny lakes the place of the old Company, under more favorable auspices, and clear of its em barrassments. The new Company, tinder its new corporate name, through its Directory, now appeals to you. With adequate means the road will very speedily approach the centre of East Tennessee. Till now. the difficulties were not removed, and the appeal could not, in good faith, be made. Now it comes in good faith and in earnest VV’ill you listen : will you reflect I We ourselves to your judg ment. your patriotism, your interest ’ The question will not be asked, we presume. “Will the construction of ihe East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad benefit East Tennessee This is conceded by all But the question may be asked. “ Will it be productive—will it pay ?” This will be pertinent We will, therefore, slate a few facts and make a few suggestions, which, in our estimation, will an swer the question in the affirmative. The construction of our road will unite the centre of East Tennessee with the South, the natural market for our products. Knoxville and Greenville and Maryville and Athens and Cleveland, will be placed in juxtaposition with Augusta and Savannah and < harieston, and through them will have commercial intercourse with the wold Who among you, fellow-citi zens, can estimate the value, socially and com mercially, of such an intimate union of inte rests. It would be felt and acknowledged in all department* of society, and in all branches of industrial interests. We will state a few facts, out of many that might be given, to show that a railroad extend ing into East Tennessee, and connected with Southern roads, will be productive. East Tennessee coversan era of 16,000 square miles, or over ten millions ot acres, and contains at this time, u population ot not less than 350 000 and is capable, in every resj»ect. of sustaining as dense a population as any section of coun try of the same extent. The trade of East Tennesee. including exports and imports, does not. it is believed, fall short of fifteen millions of dollars. This estimate is founded on data reasonably certain, and is not exaggerated. She is rich in mines of iron. lead. zinc, copper, coal and ether minerals, and in quarries of marble. Her water-power abounds every where. Her soil is productive in all the grains and root crops, which most cheap!* sustain anima! h'e. and such as are most needed in the Southern portion of our Union With the increase of population and the stimulus that cheap and speedy transportation would beget, production might be increased to an almost unlimited ex tent. Tne annual production of pork for market, m East Tennessee, does not fall short of 80.000 dollars She can have an immense surplus of corn, wheat, oats. Irish potatoes, hay, fruits, garden vegeub es. poultry, butter, cheese, eggs ic. Lime too. can be produced in immense quantities for market, and would sell readily at a profit to tne producer, and a s*v 4 ng to*the i consumer. 1 The surplus of articles which will not now bear the cost of transportation in wagons, would soon be quadrupled, mxtung a clear gam to the 1 producer over his present income; for such surplus articles are now wholly lost. Toe iron business in East Tennessee, now large and of great importance, is annually in creasing : and with the facilities and impulse that would be given to this branch of produc tive industry, by the construction of our road, its magnitude and importance cannot now be even estimated. The cons’ruction of our road would, at once, enhance the value of our lands to an amount more than sufficient, if vested, to make the road. The history of railroads proves beyond a dis pute, that wherever constructed they greatly increase the ordinary business of the country carried on at the time they go into operation, and that they create new business. More es pecially is this so when constructed along a mainline of trade and travel as ours will be. They stimulate and encourage the agricultur ist, and when he thrives all other branches of industry share in his prosperity. It is ascertained certainly, that Railroad stocks are more profitable than bank stocks every where. They are mire certain in their divi dends—are safer, as the capital is attached to the soil—the capital cannot be burned —can’t runaway nor can it be carried away in the pockets of a defaulter. Money vested in a railroad is as safe as mo ney vested in mortgages on real estate —is as profitable, with much less trouble and expense in attending thereto. As these facts, with many others that might be named, satisfy the Committee beyond doubt, that our Road, if complete, would be of im mense benefit to East Tennessee, as well as to our Southern neighbors, they as fully and con clusively satisfy the committee that the road will be productive—that it will pay. It may be asked, and indeed is asked fre quently can Tennessee alone make her im provements ?—is she able ? We answer with out hesitation, she can—she is able. The will ing mind to the work is all that is needed to in sure success. And to prove conclusively that she has the ability, it is only necessary to re mark that one-half of the funds already expend ed on our Road, were paid by less than 150 paying stockholders. We do notask nor do we think it the proper policy, for single individuals to vest large sums in stock. We would prefer, and we deem it the true policy, for the interests of the commu nity, that every citizen should become interest ed in the stock of the company ; and that it should be parcelled out and distributed in small amounts. In this way the burden would be light, and not oppressively felt by any. The requisite amount of funds could be paid in more easily and sooner, and the country could sooner enjoy the great benefits to be derived from the investment. Books are now opened for the subscription of stock in the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Company ; and with the view of en deavoring to have the stock distributed accord ing to the suggestions of policy before stated the Directory have appointed agents in the different counties to receive subscriptions of stock A list of agentsis appended, to which others will be added as may seem necessary. The agents are respectfully, but urgently re quested to commence operations immediately. To the agents appointed, the Directory would say friends give us jour aid. Try to obtain subscriptions from your fellow-citizens. Let us unitedly make the effort, and persevere in it. If love ofcouutry w ill not urge to action, let ns urge the desirableness of improvement of personal and social condition ; and. higher, and above all, with some, love of cent per cent. Nothing hut an effort, a strong, a long, a united effort, will effect our object. Let us make that effort, and the committee will not permit themselves to doubt a favorable result. We will not indulge in misgivings. We pre fer to indulge the anticipation of your favora ble response ; and therefore we appeal to our fellow-citizens, boldly, urgently, though respect fully. The directory hope to obtain aid from our Southern friends, and the effort is now making. If successful, we know it will stimulate us all to renewed and increased energy. If unsuccess ful, let us not despond. lie can accomplish the work ourselves; and self-reliance is true digni ty. Let us, if need be, show to the world, that we are as ready and w illing to pul our shoul ders to the wheel, and help ourselves, is we have been lo volunteer to fight the battles of our country. We ought not to omit mentioning that the Charter of the company is one of the most fa vorable ever granted to a corporation. Ils cap ital sto ?k is forever free from taxation, and all the property of the Company is free from tax ation for the term of twenty years from the completion of the road. It is now submitted to you, fellow-citizens, whether this work shall be abandoned, and the amount already expended become a total loss to the State and individual Stockholders; and, more, whether East Tennessee shall remain in her present pent up condition, shut out from a profitable competition in the open markets of the world. Will you slumber over your inter ests, and suffer the rich boon within your grasp to pass to others, lean deserving. perhaps, bat more watchful of their interests ! Be not mis taken, or unmoved. East Tennessee cannot enjoy full prosperity without the improvement for which we plead. She will never have fulfilled her duty, nor reached her true position and destiny, until she opens up to herself the highway to the world. That highway we point out to you. And we hope now, fellow-citizens, we have fu filled a part of our mission in this cause, when we have thus, in this hasty Address, held up to your gaze, and within your reach, the magic wand the appropriation of which to yourself would insure prosperity. Fellow-citizens, it is for you to decide. Our appeal is with you. We will not permit our selves to doubt as to what will be the result of your calm and deliberate consideration of this subject. You will say the work must not. shall not. be abandoned. An enlightened policy forbids it—the ' onor and the best interest of our common country forbid it—and we know that your best interests and ours forbid it. We therefore look to you in confidence. If you act promptly and vigorously in aid of this work, you will enjoy self-gratulation for having done right ; and yon will be entitled to and will re ceive the lasting gratitude c r your posterity. Wm. F- Keith. j I T. Lenoir. W.m llkiskell )' Committee. T. Nixon Van Dyke, I A. D. Keyes. Athens, .April 28, 1848. Col. Seymour--His Batallion--Santa An- na. From private letters received from Col. Seymour, we find, says the Journal and Mes senger, that he is still at Perote, and that the health of his batallion is improving. We ad verted some time since, to the great mortality that had prevailed amongst his men, and we give an extract from his letters, which thus ac counts for it : *■ Perote is a healthy place, and I am satisfied in my own mind, that there are no local causes for disease existing here, but that the seeds of disease were engrafted in the men before they came here—they were leading an idle Camp bfe in Columbus, from April to October, where they contracted measles, and other diseases; they were then stationed at St. Juan avowedly the most unhealthy place in all Mexico, and then in th**ir dibihtated condition, they made a forced march, in a dreadful storm, for a day ami night, over the mountains, to this place.— That disease and death have been in a peculiar degree the fate of those poor men is evident from these facts. A large company of regulars who have been here over eight months, have lost but five men. another strong company of detached men. (composed from different re giments) have lost about as many. In a compa ny of Dragoons of Bd. about a dozen have died, and in Capt. Foster’s company which came up with me. but four have died since they came into the country, while the other four companies of the Batallion are fearfully reduc ed in numbers. 1 have every reason to be sat isfied wuh the conduct of my men. The vol unteers eq a illy with the regulars, are orderly and well behaved, and perfectly subordinate, and manageable.” Col Seymour had u«ed every precaution for the prevention of disease, having had the sick temoyed from the Castle to thelarge airy Hospitals in Perote. after having given his per sonal attention to the cleanliness, and condition of the buildings Ihe burial service was or- ' dered to be read over the dead, and as far as ' was practicable, had them burned in coffins.— To the latter subject he thus alludes : : " Much against my wishes we have at times to bury our dead without coffins, it being im- 1 possible to procure boards at any price, and this E mode is not contrary to the customs of the • country. I witnessed the other day the cere monies or rather the preliminaries, of a Mexi can burial--a fine coffin, gaudily painted with religious devices, figures. A:c.. is kept at the Padre’s house—l had before seen it there, but supposed that my host (for I have often been 1 his guest.) kept it as an act of penance for him self, a memento marie. but I was mistaken. It is the common property of all his parishioners, and they can ail see for themselves, the tene ment which at some time or other they are temporarily to occupy. Like the bed of the Procruste. it is adapted to all shapes and sizes, for men. women, and children in turn occupy it. Wnen a Mexican dies, the coffin is carried I to the house of the deceased, and the body ■ decked in sandy grave clothes, (also common I to ail the dead.) is placed in it. and carried to ■ the grave. The body is then taken out of the I coffin disrobed, and placed in the grave, and I as the earth is thrown in it. a couple ot stout | men are employed in pounding it down with i beetles According to orders from Head Quarters, Col. Seymour received Santa Anna, his way to Vera Crux at Perote. paying him the honors due to the President of the Republic—- he thus describes the interview: i •• 1 have had an opportunity of seeing Sants Anna, the 'Napoleon of the W est as he styles himself On Monday morning his aid. a nice I dapper-looking uUie fellow, accompanied with a while Hag, called upon me, and reported that the Ex-President was about three miles from town, waiting for permission to enter the place. I mounted my horse and accompanied by about twenty officers, rode out to the Hacien da. where he was resting with his family—His large travelling coach with six mules attached to it, was standing at the entrance, and the court or plaza was filled with lancers, dressed in their gaudy Mexican uniforms, with red streamers affixed to their long lances—there were about sixty of them, and they constitute his bodyguard. Santa Anna came out to meet me, and I made him a short speech, to which he replied ; he then introduced me to his wife and to his daughter, by a former wife, and then followed mutual introductions, with the offi cers. Now for an imperfect sketch of Santa Anna—No account that I have seen of him does him justice. His countenance has been re presented as indicative of cunningand treachery, cruelty, and sensuality—but Ido not so read his face, that index of the mind. In the first place, there is nothing Mexican about it—he has a good forehead, a handsome black eye. bl,t not of that piercing brightness which indicates sub tlety and treachery, bu a fine, expressive, speaking round large orb ; his face is neither oval nor what may be called peaked, but rather massive—he was close shaven with neither whiskers nor mustachios, his haircut very short, stiff and of pepper and salt color—there was more of the civilian than the soldier in his ap pearance; rather above the middle size, but he stoops, and in consequence of his wooden leg, he walks with very much of a limp. He re mained* day and night in Perote.and warmly expressed his gratitude for the attentions he received. In one respect he is like Othello, “he is damned in a fair wife”—of the meaning of which expression, the world is very much at a loss. But that Senora Santa Anna is sur passingly fair, that old anchorite St. Anthony himself would not dispute Her features are Grecian, with a fine black eye, and very pret ty hair -her manners are very lady-like, and she conducts herself as one accustomed to the American style, and, unlike her country-wo men, wears a bonnet On Tuesday I despatch ed them to Jalapa under an escort of Dra goons.” “ I had a few days since the renowned Col. Jack Hays of the Texan Rangers to dine with me. He looks lika anything else but a fire eater; he is very slightly built, and of under size, of thin visage, and with no marked fea ture, except a fine eye; he dresses very plainly and hat nothing brusque or military, either in his air or carriage. He is a plain uneducated man, modest and unassuming in his manners, and nothing egotistical in his conversation. You would sooner lake up any one else as the great Mexican fighter, and the bold and reckless troo per.” llliiiuins. the Most Remarkable Cure Ever Recorded.-- IFa/cZodoro’, l/e., July 30, 1815 —Bear Sir: Having experienced great benefit from your invaluable medicine, I feel it my duty and privilege to let the world know what it has done for me. Possessed of a strong constitution naturally, I had enjoyed perfect health previous to the spring of 1813, when 1 was troubled with a difficulty in my leftside, attended with considerable pain. Sometime in July I was violently attacked with a cough, which continued until fall; then 1 was confined to die house eight months, during which my cough was very se vere. I frequently had spells of coughing which lasted two hours; daily raised large quantities of dis agreeable matter, accompanied with blood. Some times I raided a quart of bl.x»d at a time. 1 consulted three physicians, all of whom did theii best to restore tne; gave me up; said they could do no more for me; I must die; it was impossible for me to live but a short time. ' One of them said my lungs were gone. Al this critical moment, when eminent physicians had exhausted their skill, friends despaired of my life, my own hope of recovery at an end, I resorted to Dr. Balsam of Wild Cherry. Wlreu I had taken one and a half lollies those se vere spells of coughing were removed. I continued taking the Balsam until spring, 1844, when I cea>ed to bleed at the lungs, my health and strength nu proved so that 1 left the house, but was not able to work for a year. Now my health is good, lam able to do a day’s work every da) on my farm. James Comery. Witness, Thomas Benner. For particulars, see Dr. Wistar’s treatise on Con sumption, to be had of the agents.
