g ()31tTTMBTJB: ] Largest City and Country Circulation. Monday Morning, May 10, 1850. Wo invite the attention of our citizens to tho communication in to-day’s itsue, signed “Tallapoosa,” which we copy from the Dade villa Times. A dispatch from New York on tho 12th, announces tho failure of Jacob Little, a broker, for two4hiliions of dollars. Tho announcement, created quite a fluttering in- Wall street. - The Southern lUptlit Convention. This body, wlych lias recently been in session in Richmond, Virginia, adjourned on Tuesday last, 10th inst., to moot in Savannah, Georgia, on tho Friday beforo tho second Monday in May, 1801. —— Mr. J. S. llyington, Cotton buyer in Montgomery, wo learn from tho Adver tiser, was thrown from his buggy on Thursday evening, nud seriously injured. He was thrown on his head and was sense less for several hours, but was much bet ter on Friday. Tho Augusta pnpers contain tho an nouncement of the death of Mr. Sidney S. Browne, which occurred in that city on Friday morning. Mr. Browne was a printer, and was for several years of the firm of Browne, Cushey & McCaffcrty, job printers of that city. He has left a large family of children to mourn his loss. ♦ Heavy Sail! iignlnal Com. Vander bilt. A suit lias been commenced in the Su prewe Court of New York, to recover two million dollars front Com. Vanderbilt, on tho ground that he never accounted for largo sums of money received by him ns President of the Nicaragua Transit Com pany, and particularly of the SIO,OOO per month received from the l'ncifio Mail Company, so long as no lino should be run between San Francisco and New Y’ork by the Transit Company. ♦ I'nlversnlism to he Ulscasseil. Wo learn from the Amcricus Republi can that a controversy on the doctrine of Ijniversulisin is in progress between Rev. U. B. Clayton, of the Universulist faith, and Rev. W. J. Scott, of the Methodist Episcopal denomination. The discussion is conducted iu u series of six letters each, which are to appear weekly in the Repub lican. Mr. Clayton opens the discussion, and his first letter is to appear next week. If they arc not too long-winded wo will endeavor to give them a hearing through tho Sun. ♦ The State Tax Low. Wo publish to-day, for tho benefit of all whom it may concern, the two first sections of the Tax Law passed at the last session of the Legislature, by which it will be seen that ill every ease where property is given in at n rato below its taxable value, ‘the Reoeiver of Tax Re turns is authorized to assess a proper value ou said property. It is evident, from the representations of the Comptrol li r to'the Legislature, that alargo amount of the property owned in this State lias heretofore been given in much below its value, thus depriving State of tv large amount of its legitimate revenue, while it increased the taxus of those who give in at a proper valuation. Wo are glad to sec this irregularity has been provided for. and hope the assessors will koep a vigilant eye to the enforcement of live en act mout. ♦ Kni-t liquako nt Sea. Mr. R. A. Cox, a passenger in the hark Wiivonuh, arrived at New York fiom Rio do Janeiro, thus describes an earthquake which was experienced on board the above vessel: April 27th, 3 a. m., we were suddenly awoke from our sleep by a trembling of the vessel, nut unlike a vessel rubbing ov r a coral reef. The shock lasted about Si) seconds, and in about two minutes was repeated more sensibly, the weather at the time, and before and after, was pleas ant. ivitli light, easterly breezes, bearing from thence to four poiuts. At 615 a. m., felt the third shock much stronger than the two preceding ones; it lasted from 20 to lit) seconds. Our first inipressiou was that wo had struck some unknown reef; hut tho second and third shocks fully convinced us that the motion was that of an earthquake or volcivnio eruption. On observing the barometer, we found it had fallen from one to two tenths, whether from the state of the atmosphere or front the trembling of the vessel we cannot say, but think | the latter would produce tho result. At the time of tho shock w-o were in about bit. 32” long. 70° 25', Bermuda bearing about Wl at nearly ti degrees. • K K (lliiiiry Discovery. In another part of our columns, says i the London Photographic News, will he found the details ,of tv very singular dis covery by M. L. Scott, by means of which sounds may be made to record themselves, whether these sounds are those of musical * instruments, or emitted by the voico iu singing or speaking. Professor Wheat stone, during liis recent visit to Paris, was invited by the Abbe Moigtto to in spect the papers on which these sounds ! had printed themselves, and is said to j have been greatly surprised and pleased with what he saw. The mark produced ou the paper by a particular note is inva riably the same; so, also, if a person speaks, tho tone of voice iu which he speaks is faithfully recorded. As yet no practical advantage has been obtained by this discovery; but M. Scott is sanguine that, in course of time, he will so.far im- j prbve his apparatus, that it will be capa- j ble of printing a speech, which may bo ! written off rerhalim, to tlie great saving of tho labor nt Parliamentary reporters. ~ , W Sail Accident, We regret to loam that Mr. Wnt. A. j Pittman, an esteemed citizen of this cotiu ty, residing in the South Eastern portion [ of the county, was dangerously wounded on the 2nd inst., by the accidental dis charge of a shotgun, while out hunting, j He went to set his gun down, nnd sup. | poses the hammer struck on a log which I was lying by his feet. The charge enter cd about the left farest, and was turned | outward by the boues, producing a fright wound. . We are happy to state, however, that be is in a fair way to recover, though | badly injured. - t Vedoicee ( Ala.) H> ‘rcunj. I From the Tallapoosa Tlmea. Tiic Opelika and Talladega Hoad. The Two Iteporta. Mr, Editor: Instead of tho advocates of the vail road route by LaFayette going along the line of their road and ascertain ing what amount of produce would be transported over tbeir road, if built, they took it into their heads to fall back on the census report of 1850, ns a reliable data. Any man acquainted with the locality of theroads, can ut once see the fallacy of this course. “The West Point road cuts off the south-eastern, and the Dadeville route would cut'off the south western por tion of their county. Avery intelligent farmer in tho southern part of that county, not long since, said that LaFayette could not control more than one half of the cot ton made in the county, if both roads were built, and she offered as fair a mar ket as West Point; yet, they set down all Chambers and a part of Tallapoosa, as supporting their road, when they would not get one bale of Tallapoosa cotton, and not more than half of the Chambers cot to if. Again, they claimed the Cherokee cotton; but Cherokee has a navigable river to Rome, an eastern market, aud the Georgia Rail Road Company are now building a rail road from Dalton to Gads den, on llio Coosa river, and at the south west corner of Cherokee, which will bo done bcTore they cun build to Oxford. Then of course, as nil commerce tends eastward, we shall never see a single bale of Cherokee cotton passthrough LaFay ette to Columbus. Then, according to the calculations of an excellent engineer, who rode over their route, that the moun tains south-east of Oxford caunot be pass ed with the amount of subscription likely to be raised. The road must then stop at LaFayette, (where they have aimed to stop,) instead of Louiuu or Wodoweo.— Then how much ootton will Columbus get by this operation? Only the half of Chambers and probably all of that raised in Randolph. Rut again, they add 5,212 bales for tho increase of Randolph since 1850, and nothing for the increase of any of Hie counties on our route. Why this omission in their fair report? Did they see that Chambers bad increased only 50,000 acres and probably bad turned out tlin* amount to pastures aud broom sedge? That 1850 was Chambers’ palmiest days, we have no doubt, but Randolph has in creased 100,074 acres of cleared lands, and they mill 5212 hales for that—of course they ought to have done as hon estly by Tallapoosa, Coosa nnd Talladega ; for Tallapoosa lias increased 168,308 acres, Talladega 125,365, nnd Coosa 128,900 — making in all, 422,568 acres. Now if 160,074 acres give 5,212 bales, 422,668 would give 14,000 bales to ho added to 20,622 bales, which they were pleased to give us, making us 34,622. Add to this 5,000 that we would take by running through the best portion of the Chambers farms, would make us 89,622 bales. Then take from their route 5,000 for tho West Point road, and 5,000 for ours, and it leaves them with just about 23,752 bale.?, which g’ves us a balance, ac cording to their own showing, of about 16,870 bales in favor of our route.— We beliovc that census takers arc gener ally very unfaithful, nnd therefore unre liable. For this reason we were directed to a different course, nnd as far ns was in our power, followed it to tho letter. We went along the lino of our intended route to the owners of gins, and enquired how many bales were ginned in each neigh borhood that stood a fair chance to be transported over this route, nnd set down tlioir reports accordingly, until we got to Talladega and Calhoun; these wo got front intelligent men, which they gave us from some former calculations, as being about 21,000 bales each, wo setting to our account Talladega and Calhoun, not believing that a railroad would ever cross Oxford Mountain. But deduct Calhoun from our list, and we have 44,000 bales; near double what they would have. Rut we left off’ several neighborhoods for want of time, nnd some cutne in too late to be added to tho account. Taking an other view, wo would take from West Point 7,000 bales of Tallapoosa cotton, 16,000 of Montgomery, and 10,000 of Wetutnpka. Add to this 21,000 for Tal ladega, and we have 63,000 bales. Add Calhoun, and we have 74,000 bales. But gentlemen acquainted with the country in Shelby and St. Clair, say that if our road connects either at Coosa station or at Cliildersburg, we will draw the cotton from tho Coosa valley, parts of St. Clair and Shelby counties,adding from 15,000 to 20,000 bales. Then we have a chance for 90,000 or 95,000 bales, and of dry seasons, to draw cotton from the town of Selma, along our road. Add to this, our road would pass between five quarries of fine marble already worked, with more ready to be opened, of every oo!br, and near fine slate and limestone, iron and copper ore, in abuudanoe, and be connected by the Selma Road, only a few miles distant, with immense coal beds, kilns of lime, nnd iron furnaces, incorporated with capitals of several millions of dollars. We reported 180,000 bushels of wheat, but think our estimates are entirely too low, getting our estimates from wheat merchants in Talladega, who only reported what had been bought up I and sent off', while many farmers have not j sold out their wheat. Thus when the cot ton nnd wheat is carried off, wo shall have millions of minerals to keep our cars and hands busy on our road. Add to this, that by tho time we can connect j with the Alabama and Tennessee Rivers Rail Road, that road will be connected with New Orleans and Y’icksburg,, nnd by that time Y’icksburg will be connected with Shreveport, and will make ours tho great Texas route of travel. The President of tho LaFayette route says thnt # ifwo build this road Wetumpka will tap us. Just such a tap ns we should like exceedingly. Wo would then send her dry goods from Savannah, which she now sends to Montgomary by the West Point Kail Road, and then boats them up to Wetutnpka at heavy cost. Then we : would draw along our road alt of her cotton during the fall and dry winter seasons. Tap us ! If a western market can tap nn eastern market, does lie not talk nonsense when he talks of joining at I Oxford T Will not Selina draw ill’ all of \ his Randolph nnd Chambers cotton?— And then will not Montgomery draw it all when it gets to Opelika? But the people up iu Talladega say the eastern markets are much the best; that you havo. to pay only one per cent, ns com missions in selling and buying in the eastern citie9, while in the west, it is 21 per cent.; that in the eastern cities cot ton buyers get money 3 percent, cheaper than in the Western; that insurance is higher around the capes; therefore, if a 1 western market road taps us, it is to our profit, and to the profit of the eastern ! cities. TALLAPOOSA. ! The Princess Clotilde has introduced a novelty in Paris —the Idushet! and a blush ‘ is such a rarity, and in fact impossibility, with ladies there, that she is really envh>d j as the possessor of some new charm not j accorded to French nature. Prom Cuba—The Filibuster*. The Havana correspondent of the Sa vannah Republican, under date of the 10th inst., says : On the 3d inst, tho Spanish bark Nueva Apolo, urrived here from Cadiz. She re ported having seen, close to the coast of this island, two American screw steamers under sail, crowded with passengers.— j Instantly the report was raised that they • were filibusters, and tho feverish excite ment that ensued among certain classes in | this city, proves how very slight a hold Spain has upon their regard or affections. The same day the Spanish propeller fri gate l’etronila proceeded to sea, having only about a fortnight’s provisions on board, to look after the two reported screw steamers; since which nothing has been heard on the subject, of an authentic nature, and an impression prevails that the report was untrue. A Junta of tho chiof authorities of the Islaud was held towards the end of last week, to take counsel, as is believed, respecting these filibusters, should they attempt to land on this Island. The Right Reverend the Bishop of this Diocese was at the Junta, so the business for which it was convened must havo been of an im portant charucter. The Spauish steamer of war Colon has gone to I’ort an-Prince, as I am positive ly informed, with orders to convey the filibusters I inded there to New Y’ork. If tliis proves to be the truth, it shows a greater degree of generous feeling than could have been expected, and thus ex hibiting contempt and disdain for the putty efforts of the filibusters, will go much further to put nn end to filibustcrism than the plan formerly followed of imprisoning, punishing, garroting, &c. + Tax Act of 1858. An act to make tho receivers of tax re turns in tho several counties of this State hereafter to be elected, assessors of taxes in certain cases lieinafte# nam ed, and for other purposes. Whereas, It is evident that there is a large amount of property owned in this State, that is returned far below the value thereof, thus depriving the State of a con siderable amount of money which would otherwise go into her treasury. Sec. 1. Be. it therefore enacted, by the General Assembly of the State of Georgia, from and immediately after the passage of this act, it shall be the duty of each receiver of tax returns in the several coun ties of this State, to examine, carefully, each return presented to him, and if, in his judgment, he shall find* the property embraced in said return, returned below the value thereof, it shall be his duty to assess tho value thereon. Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, by the authority aforesaid, that in case the indi vidual making such return, shall consider tho assessment made by the receiver too large, be shall be permitted to leave it to three disinterested persons, one of whom he shall select, and the receiver shall se lect one, and these two shall select a third party, a majority of whom shall tffctermino the.amount of assessment on the property embraced in said return.

Corrie was again before tins United States District Court, (Judge Magrnth,) on Thursday, 12th instant, tho occasion being the arrest of the defendant, under a bench warrant issued from tho United States Circuit Court from Georgia, by Judge Wayne.— The United States Marshal, D. 11. Ham ilton, Esq., executed this warrant on Thursday, aud presented his return with the body of the defendant, for the judg ment of tho Court. Judge Magrath, in an elaborate opinion, reviewed the laws nnd ruies which govern the jurisdiction in this class of offences clmged against W. C. Corrie, and concluded with ajudgment re affirming former decisions, and claim ing exclusive jurisdiction for the Court in South Carolina. This is the third application, we be lieve, that lias beeu made from Georgia, for tho transfer ami delivery of Win. C. Corrio, for trial in that Federal District. Charlatan Courier, May 13.
