t'OUMBI’N, MOKIAY, KOTEUIB *. 1858. Hall Hoad to Lumpkin. The brief article which we permed for our Sat urday’s, issue was in type before we saw the re marks of the Enquirer on the same subject. Oth erwise, wc would have been more respectful to our cotemporary than to say that the importance of such a road to this city was not a debatable ques tion. We presume the Enquirer will admit that the proposed road will increase the trade and com merce of Columbus except upon a contingency to wit: the building of a road from some point on the South-western lino (say Americus) to Lump kin. Indeed this much is conceded when our neighbor says : “Such a road would certainly be a feeder to the Girard & Mobile Railroad Ac. _ Whatever feeds the Girard A Mobile Road must necessarily feed Columbus, not only because it enhances the value of her stock in that Company* but because it must, necessarily, be freight or trav el to or from this city. We quote further from our neighbor’s remarks: “But we regard it as almost inevitable that il the road was constructed to Lumpkin it would very soon be carried a little further east and make_ a connection with the G'uthbert branch of the South-Western Railroad. The distance would be so very short, and the advantage of the connec tion so great, that it would be effected as a matter of easy attainment. No doubt the SouthAV estern Railroad would itself bo willing to close up the insignificant gap. And when this was done, not only all the eastern travel and freight from Hor ence and other points along the road east of the Chattahoochee would avoid the route by way of this city as circuitous and unnecessarily long and go by way of Americus instead, but in all proba bility a large proportion ot the trade and travel from west of Silver Run on the Girard and Mo bile Railroad would take the same direction.” Our ooteinporary would not have written the latter sentence of the above paragraph, had he ta ken time for reflection. Fort Mitchell, and not Silver Run, is the point at which it is proposed to make the connection with the Lumpkin and Uor ence road. From Fort Mitchell to Fort A alley, via. Florence, Lumpkin and Americus, the dis tance is 111 miles, via. Columbus, it is only 81 miles—making a difference which must operate as a perpetual bar to the passage of Mobile & Girard freight over the lower road. We inquire, in the next place, into the proba bility of the construction of a road from Lump kin to Americus. We shall assume that if it be built at all, it will be built by the South- Western Company. If we may judge from their action, the citizens of Lumpkin are attached to this mar ket and prefer a connection with us. If it were otherwise —if they desired a connection with Americus, the best possible means to throttle such an enterprise would be to induce them to invest in the Florence road. Neither road would pay as an investment, and they could not be prevailed upon to build both. But the fact is as we have stated it —Lumpkin is anxious for the Columbus connection. What inducement would the South- Western Company have to build a road to 1 jump kin ? We do not know’ the distance from the lat ter place to Americus; but, it tucrc is any accu racy in Bonner’s Map, it is more than thirty miles, on an air line. We may safely assume that a practicable route cannot be secured under a less distance than 85 miles. We have already shown, from a comparison of distances, that such a road could not get any East Alabama trade. It would derive its chief support, therefore, from Stewart County. What does our cotemporary think of the probable value of such stock? This “iusignifi cant gap” would be suddenly magnified and be come a very significant gap in the profits of the Company. Now what would be the object of its construction ? To increase the business and en hance the value of the South-Western road, surely. But were it not built—if everything came to Co lumbus, in going East freight and travel would be forced to go over 25 miles of the South-Western road in order to reach Fort Valley, while by Amcr icus it would only pass over 42 miles of the same road. The South-Western Company, therefore, would build an unprofitable road 35 miles in length to gain a comparatively small amount of freight over 17 miles of road already constructed ,—a degree of fatuity and folly which we w ill not ascribo to the intelligent President and Directors of that Company. We have said that neither road would pay as an investment —in dividends to Stockholders. This, however, should not and will not deter the citizens of Lumpkin and Florence, and the people along the line trom seek ing a connection with us. The facilities for the transportation of their produce and for obtaining their supplies, besides tbo means of ready access to the best cotton and grocery market in the State which such a road would afford, would be a per petual source of income to them and, in the end would amply remunerate them for their outlay.— This city, in her corporate capacity can do noth ing ; hut she would be the beneficiary of such an enterprise and her people should not withhold the proper encouragement for its prosecution. J. L. Orr, Speaker of the House of Representatives, arrived in W ashington on I? ri day, and on Saturday evening was honored with a serenade at his hotel, lie was called out, and made a brief speech, and concluded with the re mark : * “I thank you heartily for this expression of your kind feelings towards me, and permit me, in ad dressing you perhaps for the last time, to conclu de with a quotation from the great Webster: •Liberty and Union, now and forever, one and inseparable !’ [Loud and long continued clieer ing.”] Wonder if Mr. Orr don’t want something! Or is he catching the Union itch, dry so? British Philanthropy. —The value of the British opium trade with China is fifty million of dollars a year. It is a contraband trade, out lawed by the Chinese Government, yet it is car fried on briskly. The English Government wag ed a war with China in 1840, because it declined to allow the importation of this pernicious drug, that destroyed its people by thousands. While with one hand England is stopping the African slave-trade, she is using the other to crowd the deadly poison down the unwilling throats of the Chinese. This is a fair specimen of British phi lanthropy. The Price of Editorial Happiness. —The happiness of the editor of the Fernandina News, “is secured for the week” by the presentation of some vegetables from the prolific Garden of Mr. Thos. Hawkins. The vegetables done the business ; but as if they were not enough, one advertiser sends him a box of candies; another a basket of ban anas, oranges and apples; another a suspicious bottle, covered with cobwebs; another a choice hunch of Royal Havanas ; another a peck of grist: another an overcoat; another two bricks and a bundle of laths. The first sufficed to-secure hi* happiness; the rest wrought him into a phrenzy of delight, and inspired the hope that a turkey will he sent for his Thanksgiving dinner, and for which he ventures his thanks in advance. _— . Hon. John Forsyth. This distinguished gentleman reached our city on Saturday morning,*on route for Washington. It has before been announced that he goes thither by the direction of the President who wants the aid of his information in relation to our difficulties with Mexico. As soon as his arrival was an nounced, the following order was issued by Capt. Paul J. Semmes, of the Columbus Guards : COLUMBUS GUARDS, ) Columbus, 27th November, 1858. } Orders, 1 No. 29. } In honor of the Hon. John Forsyth, Minister of the United States to the Republic of Mexico, now in this city, a salute of thirteen guns will be fired at the intersection of Bridge and Oglethorpe streets, at 2 P. M., under the direction of the Or dnance Sergeant. By order of Capt. PAUL J. SEMMES. John W. Hodges, \st Sergt. Columbus Guards. At the appointed hour, we .heard the booming of the cannon, and to its deep-toned welcome re sponded the hearts of our people. The shortness of his stay among us forbade his acceptance of further honors tendered him by this gallant Company. Mr. Forsyth was for a long time its Captain, and then, as now, it was the pride of our city. He left in the afternoon train of the same day for Washington. Health and good fortune attend him! From the Federal Union. Hon. A. H. Wright. Texas Valley, Floyd Cos., Ga., { November 19 th, 1858. J Dear Gus : —My mind has been running a good deal on what we were talking about the other day, and I have concluded to write to you and give my opinions more fully than I was able to do at that time. What was expected of you, Gus, when you were elected to Congress from this the stoutest and most unswerving Democratic district, not only in Georgia, but in the Union? You were unques tionably elected as the friend of the Administra tion, and had you not gained the confidence of the party in that respect, you would’nt have poll ed a corporal’s guard of democratic votes. No member ever entered Congress with more flatter ing prospects—with the confidence of a constitu ency almost a unit in political faith—with talents of a high ordor and capacity for anything, and warm personal friends who were ready to back your claims for any position your ambition might aspire to. You certainly had a bright career be fore you. Now what report have you to make of your stewardship ? How have the fond anticipa tions of your friends been realized? You have been in Congress about twelve months, and have as effectually annihilated yourself as if you had never been extant at all. You have knocked all the fat into the fire, and the conflagration has con sumed you. And how have you done it? Why first you went and slept with Toombs and Stephens, and caught the Douglas itch, and then imprudently exposed yourself to an airing in the newspapers, while the disease was in its confluent state. That was madness, Gus. 1 have known a man to be wrapped up in a straight jacket for less. No man can tamper with his consitution in that man ner with impunity, and I tell you, old fellow, you are now in a bad way, and your political end draweth nigh. How often, Gus, has your uncle Billy and the rest of your friends warned you against that pernicious habit of letter writing ? The least said about those letters, the best. They say nothing and say it badly at that. They as sume no position, enunciate no principles, no policy, no nothing. In fact you are nowhere, and don’t know it. Solomon (not old Billy) said “Oh that mine enemy would write a book.” You’d have been a foe to tickle his fancy, he’d* have gone to sleep over you, Gus, and woke up to find that you’d written, published and busted, before he’d fairly got bis nap out.* Men readily forgive rascality, but folly they rarely pardon, and you have sinned almost past redemption. But luckily for unfortunates like yourself, there is no evil without a remedy, and your uncle Billy is not the man to strike you when down without helping you on your legs again. In desperate cases, remedies must be strong to be effective, and in your critical condi tion I would strongly advise your total abandon ment of the art of Chirography. Forget how to do it and sign your name like Bonner makes cross marks on his maps. Your only safety is in total abstinence, for if ever you put pen to paper you are gone. When I heard of your first Douglas letter I went home mighty down in the mouth, your aunt Polly smelt a rat right off. What’s the matter old man ? says she. Nothing but some political news that I heard to-day, says I. What is it ? says she.— Guess, says I. All the missionary Baptists going to plump Hanks? says she. More than that says I. Good gracious! old man, says she, Bob Toombs aint said nothing and stuck to it, surely ? That aint a circumstance to it, says I. You’ll frighten me to death if you keep on this way. Cobb aint had the apoplexy ? says she. No says I, its about our Gus. Oh Lordy ! says she, you need’nt say any more old man, I know now, Gus has been a writing. She shucked and went to bed, without saying another word, and her and me lay there groaning, without sleeping a wink that blessed night. Wc feel very much hurt at you, Gus, for your uncle Billy is flattered in the belief, that he is considerably of an ass himself, and for you to go out of your way to break him down at his own trade is unkind, as the pole cat said to John Glenn when he put on his suit of corduroy. If you had your uncle Billy’s pluck and manli ness of character, you’d lie out of the whole,busi ness at once, and swear that A. R. Wright of Jefferson wrote those letters, and there would be no great harm in it either, for Ranee has so many sins to answer for already, that the additional en cumbrance would’nt amount to much. However, that is more than I can reasonably require of you. But I have the right to expect you to abandon that pernicious habit. If you can live without seeing your name in print, then confine your lit erary efforts to writing certificates for hair restor ers and pile ointments, that’s innocent amusement and can harm nobody, except those who take the remedies, and serves them right for being such fools. And if you must write letters write to me : and they won’t be wasted. But by far the safest course for you to pursue is to abandon the use of stationery altogether. The signs of the times look mighty squally for you, Gus, and sorry it is that your uncle Billy has to tell you so. Look at Turulin hugging every body that will let him. Look at Chastain, travel ing round, complaining of his biles, and getting every body’s sympathy, and see Billy Clayton (‘•the old man elephant”) how polite he is, hop ping about as nimble and spry as if he’d sold out and retired from the Tippoo Sultan line of char acter. What do they point to ? They point to the loftiest tumble for you next October that ever a man got, if you don’t fall into ranks again in double quick time ? You have kicked out of har ness, old boss, but fortunately for you, you hav’nt broke any thing, and now Just get your legs baek : again over the traces and go along quietly, like a j well broke horse, and dont get frightened at the Bullgine. When Aleck Stephens goes again to Illinois to have his picture painted, dont you have your doggerytype taken too, or you'll be hung up along with it and left hanging there for Bob and Aleck to come and to take you down, and wont you have to wait a long time, Gus? And when Bob Toombs talks Douglas at you again do you make him write it, and sign his name to it, and print it. or Bob will dodge you certain, Now I know What you will say when you sec me again, you’ll smile on your uncle Billy in that in sinuating way, g e your head a twist in that ami able bird-like way of yours, and talk about honor, convictions of duty, principles, Ac. Now Gus, they are all gammon when they dont pay and to make them profitable you must make them follow your lead and not you follow theirs. Always make your principles sebsurvient to your interest, and when it is to your interest to change your princi ples, right about face at. once, and make it a point of honor as well as duty, to come down on your old principles like a thousand of brick.— And that’s the way for you b> get your foot out of this Douglas business. Bob and Aleck have got the start of you in the rack back to the Democratic stand, but you have the wind and bottom and can beat them on the last quarter sretcb, if you dont spoil the sport by bolting—there lies your danger. And when you get safe back again, turn your pen into a tooth pick, dye your whisker? with your ink, and tear up your writing paper. Don’t have any thing more to do with Toombs and Stephens, and Doug las and all that set of skylarkers. They are not the sort of boys for you to associate with, they will always be getting you into trouble. Lean up to old Buck like a sick kitten to a warm brick, culti vate Howell, dig around him and dung him.— Climb up the hill there at Rome to Fort Lumpkin and talk to John, tell him you did’nt go to doit, you'll do so no more. That’s your platform Gus, stand to it, and Tumlin may bug tnc boys in vain: Gossamer Billy get as tight and airy as a tom-tit to no further purpose, and Chastain’s crop of biles won’t pay the expense of cultivation. Asa parting injunction, I would advise you to have the following little mottoes printed in large letters and stuck in conspicuous places about your house, so that whichever way you turn your eye will light on at least one of them. No write—No n d — letter—Forgot how —Cross roads his mark — Talk to you all day—Soy anything you want to hear—lint write, never—wont pay — Quit —Learnt better sense — Perish Penmanship — Stationery Avaumt!!! Now Gus you have the benefit of your uncle Billy’s counsel, an: 1 if you feel that you owe me any return for it. , uu can fully repay me by fol lowing it to the ietter. Do so, and if ever you rue it, my name isn’t Mu. Woodpile. A Hi-Broad Engine on its Travels. The Lfost Remarkable Leap on Record. —At Cincinnati, on Wednesday morning, a locomotive of the Marietta Railroad started down the track about half a mile, when the man in charge seeing a locomotive of the Little Miami Rock backing towards him, and fearing a collision, reversed the engine and jumped off. A minute after the two engines came together, when the impetus given to the Marietta engine, together with the foree-of the reversed power, started it towards the depot with the velocity of a rocket. The Gazette says : The down grade gave it additional headway, audit bounded along the track like a fiend incar nate, belching forth fire and smoko to the distance of twenty or thirty feet from the track, and literal ly bounding from the iron rail, threatening de struction to everthing that impeded its progress. Experienced judges of the speed of railway trains who saw this engine on its lightning travels say that it could not have been going at a less rate than seventy five to one hundred miles per hour ! Its final bringing up shows that their calculations could not have been far out of the way. Upon the track in the depot the moyning train, consisting of some four or five cars, had been made up, and about 100 passengers had already taken their scats. On came the engine with the speed of a destructive whirlwind, directly upon the track leading to the train, until within about four Ur five rods of the depot, when the fortunate accidental change of a switch drove it upon the other track. Almost before the persons standing by could realize that an engine had entered one end of the depot, the iron steed had bounded through the entire length, demolished an eighteen inch brick wall, timbers and all, at the rear, leaped across two road tracks —one about ten feet below the other—without touching either, and imbedded it self in a huge pile of coal in the yard of J. Coch nower. The distance leaped, from the wall of the depot to the lamp of the engine, could not have been less than seventy-five feet. All this distance through the demolished wall of the depot, it drag ged the tender loaded with wood, without break ing the couplings. But for the fortunate change in the switch, which threw the engine upon the opposite track to that on which the Cleveland train was standing, the loss of life must have been terrible. The force which rent a brick wall, eighteen inches thick, for circle of fifteen or twenty feet, would have smashed the cars upon the track into frag ments, and a fearful destruction of life and limb must have followed. The damages to the locomo tive is estimated at $3,000 to $4,000, and to the Little Miami depot, SI,OOO to $1,2000. Mexican Outrages on American Citizens. From all accounts, Mr. Forsyth, our minister to Mexico, will have a nice batch of grievances to aslc redress for when he reaches Washington.— Almost forced to leave the country to which he was accredited, he could not be permitted, it seems, to depart in peace. Not content with abusing him in its organ—calling him a thief, conspira tor, Ye.—the night before his departure the Gov ernment visited his house ivith a police force, claiming a person said to be a servant of Mr. Forsyth’s. Nor did the police force leave the min ister until the person claimed had paid $30,000 to the police. The minister left without an escort, was twice attacked by robbers, and the person who was taxed the $30,000 twice attempted to be seiz ed. And when the party arrived at Orizava, a claim of $60,000 was made on this person. But Mr. Forsyth declined to give up his servant, for whom he had a passport. But Mr. Forsyth was fortunate in faring no worse. After his departure, we are told, by a cor respondent of the New York Times, that an Amer ican was excommunicated while standing in the hotel in which he lived, for not going down upon his knees when ordered to do so by a priest.— Another American is now in prison in the city, where he has lain for two months, for God only knows what! The Government has preferred no charge against him, nor have prayers, entreaties, and protests of the good-hearted and patriotic American Consul here been of any avail in dis covering the cause for the persecution of this poor man. His family have been reduced to the most absolute want, and he lies in the hospital de partment of the prison severely suffering from acute rheumatic pains, contracted while confined in a close, damp, dirty, and stone-cold cell. Com plete victims of our stupid procrastination policy may be capable of a sigh of regret for the sad pos ition of this fellow-citizen. Some may even go so far as to wish to avenge his wrongs. Thomas Worral, an English gentle man of long residence in the capital, had received his passport and was ordered to leave the country forthwith. His order of banishment was given on account of non-compliance with the decree of May 15. Mr. Perry, the friend of the ex-Ameri can Representative, has his order to leave. Such are a few of the latest outrages on foreigners re ported to have occurred in the capital of the Mex ican Republic. Persons and goods are without protection; the last English mail had been detain ed by Government; correspondence between Vera Cruz and Mexico was interdicted: and unless some sort of protection is soon afforded, all for eigners will be compelled to leave the country for their own safety. Despatches have been received from Capt. Chauncey, of the Niagara, dated at Porto Grande, October 22. from which we learn that forty-five of the captured Africans had died during the pas sage to that place. It was found impossible to break up the filthy habits of the negroes, which greatly tended to spread the ravages of disease.-- Remonstrance was unavailing. Those portions of the ship allotted to them, in spite of every effort to keep them cleanly, had become almost a pest-house, filling the air with pestilential vapors. Captain Chauncey considers these negroes the most de graded class he has ever seen. The females, how ever, of whom one only had been lost, were in far better condition of health and habits than the males.— Wash. Union. Telegraphic. Sorted f6r the : tiS.
