After the tenth balloting, Mr. Green, of Bibb,
roee and nominated “WalterT. Colquitt, the Colo

with a titter of langhter all over the House.
After the 12th balloting bad been announced,
Mr. Green, ( Democrat) of Pike, moved that the
General Assembly take a recess until Monday at
10 o’clock, and that the Senate repair to its Cham
ber.
Dr. Ridley moved that the Senate repair to its
Chamber, which created Borne discussion.
Dr. Singleton moved that the Senatorial election
be postponed till tbe neat session of the Legisla
ture, which was ruled out of order. He then
amended his motion to postpone tbe election till
the Ist of March.
A good deal of confusion ensued. The Preei
dent looked obfuscated. The democracy were
afraid to try another bsllot.
Mr. Green insisted upon his motion, and the
yeas and nays were called, and it was carried ; so
the Senate repaired to its Chamber.
3 o’clock, r. u.
Tbe Senate this afternoon had under diacußsion
the Bill to charter the Branchville ar.d Savannah
Rail Kosd Company.
Mr. Miller, of Richmond, offered an additional
section, providing that the privileges granted shall
not tako effect until the South Carolina Legislature
shall repeal the privileges granted to Jones <k
Kennedy, of collecting toll at the bridge at Au
gusta.
Mr. Anderson said, that he believed the Legis
lature of South Carolina had acted unjustly in
giving Jonesdc Kennedy the privilege alluded, but
he did not think it right that a measureof this kind
should be killed on that account.
Mr. Miller replied, atating in his usual able man
ner, the grosa injustice of South Carolina, and the
duty of the State of Georgia protecting her own
citiieus by demanding the repeal of those grants.
The discuaaion was further participated in by
Messrs. Moore, and Stephens, and Hull, for the
amendment, and Mr. Jones, Mr. Dunnagsn, Mr.
Pope, of Wilks, and Mr. McGehee, against it.—
The amendment was lost, yeas, 27 ; nays, 42; and
the Bill was passed by s large majority, and the
Senate adjourned.
In the House, nothing was done but 1 lie reeding
of Bills a aeoond time.
It is supposed that the movement this morning,
postponing the election of U. S. Senator till Mon
day next, waa done for the purposo of communi
cating with Gov. McDonald, as to whothor he
shot Id not withdraw his name, as it seemed he
could not be elected, and it was only sorviug to
distract the party. lam still of tho opinion that
he cannot be Senator, and doubt whether, under
the circumatances, any one oan be.
It shows very plainly, that the dominant party in
the Legislature have no principles in common,
which can be represented by a member of tbeir
party. They are composed of such iuconsistent
and contradictory elements, that one man cannot
repreaent. I propose that thoy take a man from
each wing of tho party and pass a resolution that
the two are one, and lot them both go on to the
Senate. Gkokgia.

Directors shall dcom it advisable to do so,” on
which tho yoss and nays were called for. It was

Mr. Green, of l’ike, moved to strike out tho
dau.-o in the bill, which provided for the oxomp
tiou of tho Road from taxation, which gave rise to
considerable debato between Mosers. Thomas of
Gwinnett, Cone of Bulloch, Mioro of Lincoln,
Miller of Richmond, and others.
A motion was made to amend tho amendment
by exempting the Road for seven years alter its
completion—and another until the dividends on

These two gentlemen from Alabama are com
missioned by the Governor, to solicit the Legisla
ture of Geoigia, to give them tho right of way, for
the extension ot tho Northeast and Southwest Rail
road in Alabama. This Road runs up tho Will’s
Valley in Alabama, and they desire to go through
tho territory of Georgia some where about Chat
tooga or Dade County to reach Knoxville Ten
nessee.
This is an important matter tor the various in
terests in Georgia and ought to receive attention.

IK SENATE.
The Senate met this morning at half part 9
o'clock.
A bill to incorporate the Bank of St. Mary's, and
to extend the charter to 1880, was read. This bill
makes private property of Stockholders liable tor
the obligations of the Bank.
The bill to loan the Bonds of the State of Georgia
to the amount of $500,000, to the Southwestern
Railroad Company, upon the condition of that
company giving the State a mortgage open the
entire Road now constructed, and the extensions
to Americas, came up this morning for action in
the Senate.
Mr. Dunnagan.ofHall, said it would give him
great pleasure to do anything to gratify the gentle
man from Bibb, that lay in his power. He had
been recently down in the country where this road
is proposed to be extended, and had seen the Sena
tor from Bibb’s “quarter,’’ in Baker county, but
it was inconsistent with his avowed principles, to
loan ont the credit of the State to any private cor
poration.
Mr. Hull, of Clarke, desired that the bill should
be recommitted, in order to allow him to make a>
amendment. He was of the opinion that the pro
poeed loan would be advantageous to the country
through which this road would pass, as well as the
State.
Mr. Dean, of Bibb, said, that the conditions of
the proposed loan were amply sufficient to secure
the State against any apprehended loss. The
Company would give the State a mortgage upon
the road to Oglethorpe, upon the road from Fort
Valley to Butler, and npon the extension to Ame
ric it ill of which being of the full value of a
million and a half of dollars. He hoped that gen
tlemen would act with liberality towards that sec
tion of the country, which ia destined, if properly
developed, to be the garden spot of Georgia.
The discussion upon the merits of this bill was
oonb jued till one o’clock, when the Senate ad-
In the afternoon, Mr. Stephens, of Hanoock, took
the fioor, and advocated the passage of the bill
under consideration. Ido not heeitmte to eey,
that Ur. Btephent’ argument wee one of masterlj
power and eloquence, and 1 only use the language
of a distinguished Democratic member of the
House, when l ray, that this speech was the speech
o''he session.
He said that gentlemen had talked about prin
ciple ' —principle I —that they were opposed to this
loan upon principle. He would like to know what
great principle it was that prevented geutlemen
from extending their liberality to Southwestern
Georgia. Geutlemen said that they came here to
legislate for the State—the State. They don’t
want to legislate for tbe people—oh no! but for
tbe State—the State I He would like to knew, if
to aid the people in deve’oping the rich resources
of their country —if to enable them to have facili
ties for communication with other portions of the
State—was not the beat legislation for the State,
and its people, that they O' old do I
I cannot now give you a satisfactory idea of the
apeecb, but will endeavor to write it out in full for
the benefit of your readers.
Mr. I'ope,of Wilkes, rose to reply. He said the
Senator from Hancock has made .a most eloquent
and able speech, and has presented the subject in
its most favorable view; but he has neglected to
notice the true princ’ple of this bill— the impro
priety oj utiuy the credit of the State for the vte ofa
pritate oempany.
What is the application which is now made to
the Legislature I
The Southwestern Railroad Company asks for
the loan of tbe bonds of this State, in the sum of
$500,000, to enable it to extend its road to Baker
county—and uow for whose benefit is this loan to
be ! The Central Railroad, one of the wealthiest
corporations of the Southern country, owns $200,-
000 worth of stock, and Savaunah and ber citizens
about $300,000 worth of stock, and it is to enrich
these parties that this loan is asked for.
The Senator from Hancock most touchingly asks
us, are we not to dispense charities to those who
are needy! lam willing to do so, but I desire to
discriminate between the ebjects of my charity.
If one who has his coffers full comes to me in the
attitude of a suppliant for iny benevelence, I turn
away from him, and give unto him who hath
neither bread nor meat, nor where to lay his head.
Does tbe gentleman from Hancock want to know
what is the bad precedent in this case ?
Mr. Stephens—l do.
Mr. Pope—Then I will tell you. To lend a
private corporation the credit of Georgia for half a
million of dollars, to speculate on and use in any
way they may see proper, is “a bad precedent.”
But, say the advocates of this bill, we can’t build
this Road for many years, if you don’t help us—
we are grasping—we want to build it immediately,
and by the Slate’s money. This is the application
before you.
Mr. Moore, of Lincoln, mado an ablo speech
against the bill. Messrs. Miller, Clark and Daw
son made able speechos for it.
Tho Senate then took a vote on the bill, and tbe
yeas were 83, the nays 49, bo the bill was lost. The
Senate then adjourned.
HOtSK.
In the House of Representatives, this morning,
the amendment of Mr. Pottle to the Tax Bill, was
reconsidered and rejected.
A number of amendments wore added to tbe
Bill of tbe Committee, to tax Banks ami Railroad
Stock very heavily.
Mr. Irwin made an able spooch in favor of tho
ad valorem system.
Mr. Walton, of Richmond, addressed the House
in opposition to Mr. Pottle’s amendment, to ex
empt all indebtedness from taxfßkon. The speech
was one which showed the profound acquaintance
of that gentleman with tho true principles of taxa
tion, and contributed greatly to the defeat of the
amendment.
The Bill of tho Committee was finally rejected
by an immense majority.
Dr. Phillips said that after the multitude of
amendments, he did not know his own bill, and
disowned the paternity of it.
Tlio House have now under consideration Mr.
Waltou’s substitute, and after adopting several
amendments, they adjourned. Georgia.

Dr. Ridley, of Troup, offered a Resolution tore
quire the Governor ol Georgia to appoint a compe
tent Attorney, to apppeur in and manage ail suits
agsiusl the Western aud Atlantic Railroad, in the
Courts of Tennessee.
Tho Bill to pardon Jam os L. D. Register, of
Troup County, for tho crime of murder, was taken
up as the special order of the day. Dr. Ridley
stated his reasons for opposing this bill, that almost
sll the male citizens of Troup County, has signed
a petition against the pardon of Register—that
Register had an impartial trial, and was defended
by the ablest Counsel of tho State, and found guilty
of murder, by tho Jury.
Mr. Clarke, of Baker, was in fa or of the pardon
being grantod. lie considered this a case for the
exercise of tho clemency of the Legislature. Ho
regarded the provocation given, the slander circu
lated by the deceased, against tho wife of Register,
as sufficient to drivo any man to the commission
of such a deed.
Tho Bill was passed by a largo majority, and tlio
Senate adjourned till 3 o’clock.
In tho aftornoon, tho Bill to pardon George M.
Ray, of Houston, was, on motion ol Mr. Miller
postponed till Tuesday next.
Gen. Williamson, of Newton, from the Commit

tho 3rd Section of the 3rdnrticlo of the Constitu

to the people, with tho opinion of tho Committee
that the Bill should poss. Tho Report waa agreed
to, and the Bill was passed.
Tho Bill to provi/o for thegranting of new trials
in certain cases, was also favorably reported back
from tho Committee, and waa immediately read
and passed.
Also, a Bill to require Testamentary Trustees to
make Annual Returns, which was passed.
The Bill to incorporate the Savannah and
Charleston Railroad Company, was road.
Mr. Miller, of Richmond, offered an amendment
to provide that this charter shall not go into effect
until the Slate of South Carolina shall repeal the

Mr. Miller contended that the righto of his con

HOUSE Or RKTBESENTATIVES,
In the House of Representatives to day, a Bill
was introduced to increase the salary of Judges of
Superior Courts to $2,500.
Also, a Bill to divide the Western & Atlantic
Railroad into shares and sell the majority of tha
stock.
The ad raiorem Tax Bill, lost on yesterday, was
reconsidered, and lost again. I hardly know what
to think oft he conduct of tho House of Repre
sentatives, wasting three days in crowding this
measure with odious amendments only to destroy,
and now there has been nothing at all done
to make a satisfactory Bill. 1 am, however, in
hope that no bill will be passed, and that the
Taxes of the next two years may be assessed, and
collected under the present system, which, with
all its defects, is more jost and cqna! than the
other.
The Committee on Internal Improvements
through Mr. Walker, of Richmond, their chair
man, presented a very able Report, in relation to
the grants of privilege to Railroad Companies in
Alabama. The Committee are unanimously
opposed to giving Alabama permission to come
into Georgis, near or in the County of Chattooga,
crossing the Western and Atlantic Railroad and
going into Tennessee toward Knoxville.
This is the project for which Alabama appointed
two Commissioners to Georgia, to advocate and
solicit the passage of this bill.
Upon the ground of courtesy and reciprocity, it
might have been proper to grant this privilege.
The conduct of Alabama towards the Savannah
and Mobile Company is understood to have been
exceedingly grievous. But in this case it would
have been suicidal to the welfare of the State Road
and to the interest of Georgis, to allow such an
intersection as that desired by Alabama.
The efforto which have been made so tor to elect
a United Slates Senator baa completely failed. A
meeting was held to-night by the “ reorganized,”
to endeavor to make some disposition of the mat
ter—but as usual they could not harmonize. Only
abont one half of the members of the party were
present, among them there was a luke-warmnesa
which weamost singular.
A Committee was appointed to report some
course for the meeting to pursue, after being out
about two hours they returned, and recommended
tbe party to voto on the first ballot for one of
three geutlemeD, McAllister, Chappell and Iver
- son, and on the second ballot, centre on the man
having the highest number of votes. This plan
was acquiesced in by about fifty or sixty of thoae
I present, with a good many dissenting.
, Under snch circumstances, itis doubtful whether
’ an election tan take place. Judge Iverson who
lia very keen after the place will be here to-morrow,
to endeavor to create a feeling in his behalf.
Governor McDonald is understood to have writ
ten a letter to Mr. Dean, tbe Senator from Bibb,
complaining very bitterly at the treatment which
he has received. He says, his friends placed him
in this position, and they must arrange matters as
they best can.
The conduct of Mr. McDonald is considered by
his own party friends, to have been anything else
: than magnanimous. They charge him with allow
‘ ing his came to be a fire-brand in the ranks of the
; party. He has been effectually repudiated—his
friends cannot elect him, and why did he not come
forward at the right time and withdraw his name
from the consideration of his friends in making a
choice of a United Btates Senator. He would then
have manifested that spirit of self sacrificing de
votion to principle, which would have commanded
the admiration of his party, and in all probabilitv
it would have produced such a reaction iu his
favor, that he would have been made the unani
mous nominee of his party. Now he is regarded
j as an incubns.'upon the party, retarding its hsr
' mony, and as having tatally destroyed its fnture
i suocess iu this State. Geobgia.
Washington Correspondence.
Washington, Jan. 19, 1554.
Tte placid surface of the political waters, which
seemed to be forced intoquieseenei by the tabling
of the preamble and resolution offered some time
ago by Mr. Cutting, one of the New York “Hards,”
has again been disturbed by some gentle politics]
breezes; and as agitation generally tends to purify
both the atmosphere and the watery element, it is
to be hoped that the same result may L-llow po
litical agitation here.
On Tuesday last, Mike Walsb, of New York,
thinking it time that the Hurd) should speak out
iu meeting, took occasion to define the position of
the two wings of the Democracy of that State, and
did so in his own peculiar way, much to the amuse
ment of the House, though not much to their en
lightenment. Mike is as much of an original
cliaractcr as David Crocket was when he first ap
peared in Congress. Both wero bred up iu a pe
culiar circle, though differing toto celo from each
other, and each imbued with all the peculiar char
acteristics of the people among whom they were
“raised.” Crocket was a back-woodsman, a log
cabin hunter: was familiar with all the ways,
habits, tricks and cunning of the panthor, the
boar, the wolf, the fox, the coon, and other “var
mint and knew how to haudlo the rifle, how to
“still hunt,” “fire hunt,” and tohu it with hounds.
He knew the haunts and the habits of the daeraud
the wild turkey, and his language, anecdotes, illus
trations, &c., partook and smacked of the wild
woods life he had been brought up familiar with,
and had the rariness of novelty and aptitude to
those less accustomed to this sort of half civilized,
half-savage life.
Mike Walsh, on the other hand, is “a Bowery
boy;” hos been brought up in the midst of wealth
and refinement, yet as much apart from both as
Davy Crocket was. He is ono of the ‘B’hoys,” a
c'ass of persons in our cities, and especially in
Now York, better known than eusily described.
He has their raw style of talking, tinged albeit
with the Bowery “flash” a little too much for the
House, yet provocative of laughter, rather more
than conducive to dignity ami decorum. Yet, the
Hon. Mr. Walsh has many excellent traits of char
acter; he is blunt, frank, honest and fearless;
speaks what he thinks, andtbinks whathe speaks.
Not fully enlightoucd as to the peculiar charac
teristics of the “Hards” and the “Softs” by what
had fallen from Mr. Walsh, Mr. Smith, of Alaba
ma, desired him to state what was tho difference
between them ; to which request he roplied by
saying that there was tlio same difference there
was between au honest man and a rogue. This
reply was rather more amusing than instructive, as
his speech had been. Finally, however, Mr. Cut
ting, of Now York, was drawn out, and replied to
the interrogatory of Mr. Smith, by going into a
history of the divisions in the Democracy of Ire
State, and pointing out the course each division
had pursued, in relation, more especially, to tho
Presidential cloction in 184 S, and tho slavery ques
tion before, at, aud einco that poriod.
The speech told with good effect upon the mem
bers of the House, especially from the South. They
could sco that tho “Hards” wero those who had
on all occasions sustained tho Constitutional
rights of the South, while the “Softs” were the
Buffalo Platform men ; those who had united and
acted with tho Abolitionists in 1848, and who had
opposed, at the time of their passage, and resisted
since, the execution of tho Compromise Measures.
Very significant marks of approbation wore
given by the House aud galleries during the de
livery of Mr. C.’s speech, and at the conclusion
Mr. Bayley, of Va , aud many other members con
gratulated him thereupon, expressed their high
satisfaction, and assured him of thoir warm sym
pathy and support.
The Washington Star, only noticeable bocause it
is known to speak tlio sentiments and feelings en
tertained by the Administration—for which it has
lately received a Postoflics advertisement, worth
some two or three thousand dollars—endeavors to
cast ridicule upon Mr. Cutting’s spocch, though it,
at tho same timo, admits that “it is a great
speech.” It endeavors to excite the prejudice of
the State Rights men against the “Hards,” by say
ing that Mr. Cutting forgot to tell the House that
the “Softs” wore strict constructionists, while the
“Harda” arc more liberally inclined, and there is
no tolling how soon they may he in favor of mea
s urea of consolidation. I note this not because it
is worthy of tho least notice of itself, but as show
ing how anxious the Administration is to excite
prejudice against tho “Hards,” and toimputo some
sort of virtue to the “Softs.” The suggestion is
not warranted by any fact whatever; neither wing
having boon testod by any vote involving the ques
tion of construction of tho Constitution, except on
the Compromise Measures, on which the “Hards”
are right.
On the evening of the same day, Gov. Foote, of
Mississippi, on his way to California, via New-
York, addressed his National Democratic friends
at tho National Hotel, forabout an hourand a half,
upon the topics most interesting to them, the poll •
cy of the Administration —what they had a right
to expect from a President elected upon the plat
form Gon. Pierce was,and how they had been disap
pointed and placed under the bar, while Froesoilers
and Secessionists had been the recipients of the
highest honors in tho bestowal of tho Government.
He was especially sevore upon Col. Davis and Mr.
Cushing.
Mr. Clayton resumed and concluded his remarks
upon the Clayton—Bulwer Treaty, on Monday, in
tho course of which he reviowed the ipse dixit
opinion of Sir John Harding, in regard to the con
struction of the treaty, and showed that his opin
ion conflicted with that of Lord Palmerston and
Lord John Russel; aud that he really know noth
ing of the subject.
There is little doubt but that tho next dispatches
received by Mr. Crampton, the British Minister,
will contain an acknowledgement of the correct
ness of Mr. Clayton’s interpretation of the treaty,
which is that claimed now by our government;
and that the British are desirous to avail thom
solvcb of any favorable opportunity to give up the
protectorate they have so long claimed over the
Musquito Indians. Such an opportunity is offered
them by the sale of that country, by the Musquito
King, to an American Company, which is about to
commence settlements in it, and hold out induce
ments to emigrants to locate there.
The election of Gov. Brown, as United States
Senator from Mississippi, closes tho door to any
hopes Mr. Clemens, or his friends, may have enter
tained, of his being tendered the War Department.
Gov. Foote declared in bis speech the other evening
that Col. Davis was a candidate for the seat in the
UnitodStatcs Senate: that he wrote to his friends
to press his claims, and that they wero urged, but
urged in vain upon the members oftlic Legislature.
Gov. Foote declared that lie, himself, was beaten,
not upon the compromise, or a personal issue, but
by repudiation , not a man having been elected to
the Legislature who was not opposed to paying the
State Bonds; and Gov. Brown was the favorite
with the Kepudiators; it was he who forced in
that issue.
The majority of the Judiciary Committee of the
Senate, have reported in favor of Mr. Phelps, of
Vermont, holding his seat. He was appointed by
the Governor last spring, to fill a vacancy; the Le
gislature met but could not elect a Senator, and he
came in to have the question of his right to the
seat, determined by the Senate. So stands the
case, which is a new one.
The terms of the treaty negotiated with Mexico,
by Mr. Gadsden, so far as they are known, do not
appear to be universally acceptable. But, the coun
try purchased, said to contain 89,000,000 of acres,
will open a wide field for those restless energies
which might have been expended in filibuster
ing attempts to acquire the country in an unlawful
and discreditable manner. Santa Anna needs the
money, which we can just as well spare as not.—
The treaty gives us the Tehuantepec route for a
railroad to the Pacific. Let us also have a ship ca
nal across the Isthmus, which is a feasible measure
and a Tastly important one.

Tbe Sum sod Rome Railroads.
Kis»9To>-, Ga., Janaary 21st, 1854.
Mr. Editor :—We beg, through your columns, to
call public attention to gross negligence and mis
management upon the State Road and tbe Rome
Branch. Continually, of late, the connection be
tween the cars from Rome, and those up for Chat
tanooga has been lost, causing a delay of a day and
night to all passengers going up. Os three in
stances recently we have been witnesses. These
repeated failures are attempted to be excused on
the ground that the State Road time is faster than
the regular or meau time, but surely this is a mere
pretext, since if the State Road time is ahead, the
Rome and other connecting branches should be
governed by asimilar standard. We do not charge
the blame upon any man, or set of men, but sim
ply state facts in order that censure should be
visited upon those, who by error or carelessness,
subject the travelling community to delay and in
convenience. Mast Passes&xks.
We were shown vesterday mornirg a very dan
gerous counterfeit of the S2O bills of the Bank of
Georgetown, in this S'ate, the signatures of D. L.
McKay the President, and J. G. Henning the
Cashier, being imitated so closely as almost to
deoeive those gentlemen themselves. The genuine
bill however, has a vignette on the left hand side
of s’ female face, » hiie tbe counterfeit has an eagle
surmounting a shield, holding a scroll in its beak,
with the words inscribed therein ot “State Sove
reignty and National Union !” On the right in the
genuine is a scroll ood taming the denomination of
the note in large figures, while in the counterfeit
there ie a fall length female figure in armor. There
are also other differences between the two, but we
have we think mentioned sufficient to put the un
wiry on their guard.— Charleston Courier,

The reply of “Nous Verrona" to our comm uni
cation ontbissubjectjundoabiedly mikes themost
of the coee in favor of the road, end is also much
to be commended for ito good temper and oour
i t**y.
let In relation to the übeence of any public ne
cessity for this road, (the first of our three posi
tions,) if tbo most untenable of the throe, it is
certainly that iu the correctue* of which the
! Georgia Railroad has the least interest. We shall
1 not, therefore, dwell upon it—observing by the
wav, however, that the Macon and Wuirenton
j Road proposes o save 20 inilee of strging by build
; ing 70 miles oi Railroad, and that every purpose of
i public conveu cnee would be tetter served, by a
road from Eatonton to Greensboro’, or some con
tiguous point od the Georgia Kailroad, of lees than
one-third of its length.
When drawing the pleasant picture of Georgia,
with Milledgeville as its great “heart,” giving liie
and vigor to its extremities, the intelligent writer
mast certainly have indulged himself in a hearty,
though quiet, laugh in his sleeve.
2d. Iu relation to the inadequacy of former esti
mates, and especially of that made by the Georgia
Railroad in 1844, we remark that an estimate now
and thtn are very different things. We have been
gnided by no viewof theexisting business between
Warrenton and Macon. “Nona \errons” has
pointed out the sources of travel. We cone*do
them—and therefore concede, in our estimate, a
travel equalling the highest realization of the most
prosperous road for travel iu Georgia.
Again, no considerable development in the way
of creating products for transportation, can be
expected in the old country through which this
road passes—analogous to that in Cherokee Geor
gia. All the cotton is raised iu it now that oan be
raised, and all carried by rail already.
We have been guidedffn our estimate, therefore,
not by the past, but by the developed business,
finding data in the actual experience of sueoessfui
roads. Our estimate, too, conceded the through
travel. It gave the Macon and Warrentou Road
the full benefit of the enormous development at
tained by the Georgia Road in travel.
Iu relation to down freight, “Nous Verrons”
does not fairly state the relative ooets of transpor
tation from Augusta to Charleston and Savannah
respectively. Including not freight merely, but
insurance and wharfage, it sometimes costs more
to get cotton to Savannah than to Charleston, and
rarely above 25 per cent, (instead of 100 per cent)
more—that is to say, cent? per hundred. At
present ratea from Moan* to Bavaimft, the 'cost is
50 cents per hundred. From Macon to Charles
ton, It will be (at present and propped rates,) 12}*
to Warrenton, 25 to Augusta, (we believe) for
drayage, and 25 to Charleston—making 65 cents
ora difference of 15 cents per hundred, or 60 por
bale. The Macon and Warrenton Road cannot
well reduce its rates, nor can the South Carolina
Road permanently reduce its rates; and the Goor
gia Railroad can scarcely make the requisite re
duction (even supposing the Central to remain
as it is,! to secure any largo share of the freight.
It is certainly in the power of the Central Road to
reduce as much or more than the other roads, and
thereby maintain its command of substantially all
the freight. Nor need the reduction bo by any
means ruinous. A reduction of 15 per cent, could
better bo afforded, thau the loss of 25 per cent, of
its down freight. This would put it beyond com
petition, other than those occasional chances,
which would carry bales by hundreds, instead of
by tons of thousands.
Add to this the increased chances of delay and
detention in Augusta, and the fact that the South
Carolina Road is not less crowded than the Central,
and the latter road must command the cotton, even
if it all started from Macon. The effect of “entang
ling alliances,” however, seems to us to havobeen
decidedly underrated by “Nous Verrons.” As to
travel these might be less troublesome; but they
would certainly be troublesome customers in ar
rangements for throngb freight.
As to np freight, wo are of the opinion still, that
its quantity has been over-estimated. Os course,
the Macon and Warrenton route would have the
monopoly of what waa bought in Charleston, but
not even that beyond the competition of the Millen
and Branchville route, if built. Nor is the amount
large, when we consider that Savannah supplies
is could country mostth of the supply, and busi
ness relations are already established.
Freights from Now York or Boston, (and we be
lieve. Philadelphia,) are the same, both by weight
and measurement, to Charleston and Savannah.—
However, Savannah being equal as to water freight,
and cheaper by Kailroad freight, would have the
monopoly of such freights still. It is an error,
therefore, in “Nous Verrons” to oonsider them
equally divided.
3d. As to the relation of the Georgia Road to
the Metropolitan, (*omewhat ludicrously so call
ed,) if we are right in supposing, the latter would
do a small business itself, then it would, of course,
bring a small business to the Georgia Road. If it
does a larger business it is by lowering rates, and
therefore, profits.
The Piedmont route is considered by “ Nous
Verrons,” “ a wild fuuoy,” because the links from
Chester to Nowborry, and from Abbeville to Wash
ington, would be “ across the country with not a
single town of any size in the route.” Now, the
idea of a railroad winding about in quest of large
towns, we think pretty well exploded. They are
generally regarded by the travelling public, rather
at toll gates, to be avoided. We think the Macon
& Warrenton Roar., itself, if built, woo'd be better
located by choosing the best gronnd, without re
ference to towns—probably from coming to Macon.
This would, with less expense, give the Georgia
Road an advantage of some miles additional trans
portation. On what would the proposed route
from Manchester to Aiken, have to rely other than
what the abovo routes would have. (It is about ns
long as them both.) Tho socret of it all lies in the
idea well expressed by Nous Verrons. If the in
vestment paid no direct interest, the capital is al
ready invested in the long route between Bieh
mond, Va., and the Georgia Road, excepting the
three links referred to, and no interest need enter
into the estimate. If it be to tho interest of the
Georgia Road to retain tho through mail on
180 miles, instead of on 50, so far it is her interest,
as well as that of the Greenville and Columbia
Road, &c , to invest in the one r ther than the
other of these routes. If tho prospects of the M.
& W. Koad for any other than passonger business
are gloomy, as wo confoss they appear to ns, then
it is certainly the interest of tbo Georgia Railroad
Company to exert itself rather for the former route
than the latter. It is erroneous to suppose there
will bo little travol on the latter, except from the
North. From Abbevillo to Washington, by stage, .
is about 42 miles, by Railroad, about 106x140x751
815 miles. Most of the travel so well described
by “ Nous Verrons," as stimulated by the M. &
W. Road, between Virginia, North Carolina, and
South Carolina, and South West, would be better
accommodated by this than any other route, even
supposing the Cheater and Newberry road not
built. There may be temporary difficulties in
procuring the charter in North Carolina, but we
cannot suppose a stato of things so at war with
public interests and rights, to be permanent.
But we do not wish to be too tedious. We are
asked what we think of the Eatonton and Monti
cclloßoad? We certainly think, that if it be a
poor investment, that furnishes no sufficient rea
son why the Georgia Road should also cripple
itself with a like one. So, too, (while no bitter
ness is exhibits i,) we are suspected of conflicting
interests. We certainly have made no appeal to
any illegitimate influence. The matter is before
the public. It will be some months before the
Georgia Railroad Company can act decisively up
on it. Private capital has, as yet, shown no indis
creet haste in seeking this investment. We trust,
therefore, that the action of all parties in the pre
premises, may be

The Baltimore American of Thursday says: In
consequence of the increased rate of freight* de
manded by vessels in the Pacific, Messrs. Barred*
& Bro. agents of the Peruvian Government here
have received instructions to advance the price of
Guano from 840.20 to SSO per ton, which rate is
now demanded for all consigned to them from the
Chincha Islands. The agents hereafter, will not
sell less than fifty tons, so that the general sale of
the article will be by the commiaeioß merchants
and regular dealers. The very favorable results
1 derived from the use of this fertiliser, have induced
farmers to apply it extensively and profitably to
| their lands, and it is supposed the quantity on
hand wii. scarcely equal the requiriments for the
i spring crops. The increase of four dollars per
1 ton is a large advanoe on an article which is now

DIED.
In Mobile, Ala., on the 15th lost., JAMES H. DART,
aged 19 years and 8 months.
This promising yourg man, who was thrown upon hs
own resources at the early age of 12 years, and has al
ways sustained an unblemished character, was married in
this city 18 mouths ago, and set out for Mobile, full of hope
and confidence, with a buoyant heart and bright prospects
before him; but alas! forthe unc:rtainty of human life,
the King of terrors claimed him as a victim, and after an
illuess of 38 days he expired, leaving a devoted wife, with
her child, to mourn his loss.
“Mindi.-th a"d wasteth away, yea, man giveth up the
ghost, and where is he!”
Died on the sth inst., near Thomaston, Upson county,
Mrs JANE COBB, wife of Maj. Wm. A. Cobb.
The deceased had been for many years a member of
the Methodist Church, and died, as she had lived, a Chris
tian. Nearly her last words were Though 1 walk
th'o igh the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no
evil, for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they
comfort me.”
OBITUARY
Departed this life on the 12. h inst., at the residence of
Henry HeeUi, Warren county, Ga., Mrs. JANE LUNG,
consort of William Long, in the 19tli year of her age.
She has left one pkdge of her love, a little son, to her
devoted and almost heart-broken hu band. Few ladies
have lived more beiovod or died more lamented ; but her
numerous friends and rc atives sorrow not as those who
have no hope. She embraced religion when 18 yeirs of
age, and attached herself to theMethodi&l E. Church, from
which time until her death, she gave evidence that she
had experienced a change of heart. Mrs. Long was truly a
believer in her Lord and Savior ; her seat is vacant in ihe
Church militant and in the family circle, but she inhabits
a mansion in the* kies. A. B. T.
JOHN F. WILLIS, youngest son cf William and Nancy
Willis, died at the residence of his Mother, in Upson coun
ty, Georgia, January 6,1854, in the 10th year of his age.
In him the vernal bloom was not only bright and beau
tiful, but rich in its promise of autumnal fruit. In his dis
position, John was eminently affectionate and amiable;
in his manners, ir ltd and gentle; in his morals, interrupt;
and was loved by all who knew him. He embraced reli
gion last September, while in Colhge, at Oxford, and at
tached himself to the Methodist K. Church. He soon after
wards returned to his Mother, and commenced the
study of Medicine; but God, in his wisdom, saw fit to re
move him from earth, and settle him In that upper and
better country where co physician Is needed. He was
taken sick on Tuesday, the 20th of December, and was
confined 18 daya; during which time he was not heard
to say that he wished to recover; but often paid he want
ed to depart and be with Christ. He njoiced often while
sick in hope of Heaven. His thirst for water was great;
but, said he, I will soon be where I shall not have to beg
for water to quench my thirst; but shall drink of the
water of life and thirst no more. When life was fast com
ing to a close, he would clap his hands and rejoice, point
ing his finger upwards and saying to his Mother, Brothers,
and Sisters, weep not for ine. The before his death,
(believing that he was dying) he called for the Fan ily,
and others who were with them, and gave them, one by
one,ar affectionate farewell, with an exh? nation to meet
him in Heaven. To the Doctor who attended him, he
said, “ Vou have done a faithful part by me,farewell;
meet me in Heaven.” In this happy frame of mind, he
continued through the next day and till 9 o’clock at night,
when he fell asleep In Jesus. He has left a widowed
Mother, five Brothers, three Sisters, and many friends, to
mourn his loss. But while they mourn, they sorrow not
as others that have no hope. M. B.
