Tims i'.runsw iek lets remained in its shell lo this hour. llul an important change is a! hand. |»y t!ie close of Nov ember, the Macon A: lonnswiek Kailmad will be coin- plH* d, eoiineeting the latter city by a direel line wit it Macon, Atlanta, Chattanooga and the Great West, while a cross.-line by Columbus (Ga.) connects this with the line through .Montgomery, Selma, Meridian and Jackson. »o the Mississippi at Vicks burg. lint, in addition to this north westerly out look, Urunswick has an- oth*r line of railroad in progress near !y due West through Albany ami Kir fan la *o interiteet the afor**sai«l at Mont gontcrv, meeting thcre<*r at .Selma a new north.. • est line thence to Mem phis. P»y these roads, she will be ren dered the most convenient ami accessi ble Atlantic port to a vast and fertile rot ton-growing area, whence her re ceipts will be counted by the hun* deeds of thousands of bales ; and her harbor be crowded with vessels load ing with cotton as it already begins to be with vessels shipping Timber to various fort igu and domestic ports on either coast of the Atlantic. Ten years hence, lirutiswick will be among the foremost of Southern seaports, with her lines of steamers to New Yolk, flavannn, and Liverpool, with a pros- »ect of growth ami greatness whereof Ualtimore affords the most sir king premonition. * (The coast survey ami marine soumlings say 10 feet at low and 2Gk at high title. Ed. News.) The Savannah Morning News com ments on this article as follows : We are not at all surprised that the New York Tt:thunk, in its zealous solicit title for the commercial prosper ity of kite South, should advocate the building up of another seaport in Geor gin, with 4 lines of steamers to New York, Ac.” The more seaj>ort8 there are on the South Atlantic coast to di vide the commerce ot our section, the more small commercial centres will then be tributary lo New York. We confess,however, that we have been tin hie to comprehend the lively in terest manifested in the Brunswick scheme by some of our eotemporarics in tiie interior of the State. The Ail- gust a Chronicle, ior instance, advo cates with etpml zeal the making of great seaports ol both Port Itoyai and Brunswick, lias our Augusta friend ever asked himself the question who are the interested parties in these new proj< cts ? We are aware that the Senior ed itor of the N ews, and perhaps a few other ant itpialed fogies of his coterie, who cannot se?an inch further into tlio millstone than 2te who picks it, are trying to propagate the bugaboo that northern capitalists are investing in the Port Royal ami Brunswick en« terprises, simply with a Mev to di vide the volume ot-Sonthem'comineree and so scatter it amdng small and un important shipping centres, thati no oiio po|nt will have strength enough to assume imlepemleisof, and that* all, by their, very weakness, will W 4*^ pendent upon acd tributary to New. t l ork, and olher northern markets, v ic object‘of this shallow subler= is apparent.

About ten years ago, an effort was made to obtain -late aid by suhsc. ip* tion to the Brunswick & Florida Road. This met violent opposition. The presses ot Savannab dencauced il in unmeasured terms, at unconstitu tional ami unjust, an outrage upon the people of the State, &c. The Bill was afterwards amended transferring the proposed State aid to the Atlautic & Guff Ron], atul passed. What a cltauge! The presses of Savannah be came as quiet as sucking pigs, and from that day to this not a murmur has escaped them on the subject. In 1301, iu spite of the desperate efforts of its opponents, the track was laid from Brunswick to Teheauville, 00 miles, connecting with the Atlantic & Gulf Road. Scarcely had the last rail been laid to that ]K>int when the Savannah Republican, advocated its being seized by tl^ military authori ties ot Savannah, a military neces sity, the stock being owned tUQSlly at the North. A lewfweeks belore, the iVntral Railroad, by management or mismanagement, had |>ermitled all their Steamers, one after another, to go North, where they were seized by the IT. S. Government aiid used against the Confederates. ‘ Some of tin se Steamers were sent North after ot heis of the same liue had l»een seiz ed. \\ li* the military authorities of Savannah t r the Republican could see no improprit ty in this, we are at a loss to determine. it was m#t long before the sugges*. lion of the Reputdican was adopted. The road was seized, taken up, and what become of the Iron? A large portion was used on the Live Oak, a branch of the Atlautic & Gulf Road, extending the mil road communica tion of Savauiiuh. The print did not see, at any rate, it did not express any opinion that any injustice had been done. Our people could not perceive the justice ot being robbed, even though it enriched Savannah—this was perhaps from viewing things at a different stand-point. When tlicj Republican was taken possession of by parties who had no claim to it, our people felt an outrage hail been committed. When it was restored, they rejoiced that justice had been done even to an enemy. And we re pcctfully commend to Ills pe rusal, his own comments ou the trans action. We understand that lately, the Republican avows himself as not unfriendly to Brunswick. “Is Saul t oo, among the disciples”—we are glad to learn it is so. At the last Session of the Legisla ture an act was passed, endorsing the Bonds of the Company, by the State. One ot the conditions was the relier ing of the State from all liability arising from the destruction ot 66 miles of road taken possession of by it itllie instance ot the Republican Thai the stockholders after seven or eight years were lo lie even iudirriTtly com pensated iu part, was horrible. That this road, supposed to have been killed, was to rise again, was not tolerated. The Savannah Press discovered more unconstitutional acts in the measure, saw more devils, goblins, ghosts and spectres, than an old toper would have done in a week’s at tack of mania porta, overlooking the. fact that several members ol the Leg islature living “mighty Highly” Sa vannah, proffered to vote ibr the Bill, with all its horrors, if they would make No. 6. on the Gulf Road the lower terminus of the road. “Wlmt a difference twixt tweedledee and tweed ledum—tneum and teuin. Notwithstanding the desperate ef fort of foes, Brunswick ha3 quadru pled in population within less than three years—we trust an earnest ot her fatnre growth and prosperity. We do not charge all the people ot Savannah with hostility to Bruns wide. Far from it. There are many, perhaps a majority ol her citizens, who*would shrink from doing ufi an injoatice.— Many of them have purchased lot* and intend locating here. We bid them welcome. That “Ring” that once lorded it over the State of Geor and still does'oyer Savannah, baa been closely watched for fifteen and many matters t&Kt are to be buried is the past, may homed to the surprise of the engaged m them. i BRUNSWICK.
