GEOUGIA LEGISLATURE.
We observe nothing of particular interest in
the proceedings of the Legislature, but what has
already been noticed. The Georgia Journal 0T :
tho 9th, says—“The Seuato and House were
befc hurily engaged, on yesterday, reading newly
introduced bills, aome of qii important character.
Wa hope to be able, next week, to present our
readers with mine thing of interest in relation te
the-action ofbotli Houses ”
C3*The Legislature of Alabama convened at
Tuacalnosn, die Capitol of that State, on the 2d
iutt. Mr. Cottrell, (L. F.’ tvas elected President
of tlie Senate without opposition. The vote for
Speaker of die House stood: Col. Walker (L.
F.)49—Cal. Young (W.) 41. Eight members
were absent, tiz of whom were Whigs. It will
tlm*4e seen that when Ute House is full, parties
will stand 52 Locos—48 Whigs. There are sev
eral aspirants for the vacant seat in the Senate of
tho U. States, but it is the gcuerni opinion that
Cok King will insist on a re-election.

from Capt.Tuh’ott since the 23<i of Sept, last-
Tlm duty a*«iaued me, waa to trace tho ridge
round fVdm tlmlieud of Arnold's river to Spider
lake, nml thence on tlm Kettm bec road (or loud
(Vein Augusta to Quebec) vvhoro it crosses the,
houudnry lino. From the head of tho Connect!-,
cut to the point of mu first separation to sixty
utiles, thence to Spnlder lake thirty-five utiles, mid
thence to thi* place forty miles, all of which my
long legs Imve measured nnd lltu Schntulder emu-
pass coursed. Thu route wna throughout irreg
ular and circuitous. We took a pilot nt Cnunnii,
Imt lie proved of no service; it only requires hit
active limn to climb trees occasionally,- and ytftl
can explore every hcction of tho country.
Our life Im* buuu onn of excitement; sometime*
wet. nt other* burnt; now frozen nnd occusiona ly
melting: often stufil-d to surfeit nnd then starved
down to a skeleton. Every tiling, however, hit*'
Eunn olV successfully. Captain Tulcott will
Imvu nrpumplislmd a vast deal of work for the
time we Imvu been engaged upon the survey.
I'o this point (tlm Kennebec road) and twenty
miles Imv oml, tlm line, ns yon are aware, is not
in dispute, and (should hardly suppose itcould
lie. n* fur mile* and utile* the ridge i* composed
of Licit and distinct grauiturlifis, us if nature had
intended them to be the dividing wall* between
two countries.
Ofieu Imve I wished yon wore with us, to enjoy

ly make room for it* to pass. Un Spider lake wo
cutnn ucrora some St. Francis Indians; they kill
ed u bull utoosu for its, tuite.h larger than a horse;
Ins nutter*, or “armed chair," alone, worn five

to six pounds.
Uno of the most delicious dishes I nvnr tasted
was composed of the nose, heart ami liver of the
moose. 1 have a small sextant, by which! get the
latitude from Utu meredinu alt. of the sun, nnd

Oriental.—A society bus lately been formed in
London lor the purpose of preserving Oriental
literature, and causing texts of standard works in
every branch of Oriental literature to lie printed
iu tlm Syrino, Arabic, Persian, Turkish, Sanscrit,
nnd Zend language*—and in those of India, Thih-
ct,China.nnd the countries that lie between China
and Hindustan. At present, the. whole literature
of Asia,-with the exception ol’Thibet, axistsWnly
in manuscript—copies, thei efore, can never ha
'numerous, nnd must always be expensive. These
diflciiltic* will Im obviated by the foriuatiou Of this
socialy.—Boston Journal.
Hail Hoads.—An idea prevail* very generally,
that Rail Ronds are productive only for transport
ing passengers and light freights. This we believe
to be erroneous. It appear* by tlm Report of tiro
Lowell Rail Road for 1838, that tlm receipt* for
freight and passengers were $240,219 94, of
which $J05,182 69 were for transportation vrf
merchandize—exceeding hy more than $13,000
the entire expense* nfthe Corporation overe've
ry kind during the year.—This result is the more
conclusive, when it is remembered, that the Low
ell Rail Road is nuiy 26 miles long, and that the
Middlesex Calial i* in operation l-etween the same
ports. On tho Boston uttd Providence RuilRoad,
thu merchandize receipts for the same year were
$72,939 11. On the Boston at|l Worcester Rail
Road the receipts for passengers were $122,-
495 92; while that for freight amounted to $100,-
000. Similar results ore shown by thu business
on tho Norwich Worcester nnd Roil Roads.
The Savannah and Macon Rail Road, though
not completed hy one-third of the distance survey
ed, ha* also tested tlw question, and to now yield
ing largo returns uti tlm transportation of cotton

The Source of the Thamte.—Within two mile*
of Cirencester is the source of tlio Tliutnes, a
clear fountain in n little rocky dell, known by
the tmiue of tho Thames Head. This is the little
iufuutiuu stream, so grout u giant when it arrive*
at its full growth. * * * • *
Tho little dell, wlienr.o tosites tlm gentle C *- U M
stream, isitt hotseusnn perfectly dry; hut the
drought that stop* tho supply at the fountain
head, has but slight effect on the course of the
stream. It lies so many dilii-runt feeders from
various nurt* of tlm country, that at Lcchlndc nnd
Gricklude it runs on iu usual course uninflu
enced by tlm scarcity at the head. There is an
mousing i-tory told of a simple Cockney, who, oil
his way from Bristol to London, ranted aside to
visit die source of the river he wn* so proud of.
It was a warm summer; there had been no ruin
for throe week*, und the spring wa* dried up; he
said w.th mi expression of the utmost alarm and
sorrow, “ Wbnt ruin \bto must cause nt London!
Wlmt will tho poor people do for water f"—
and his busy fancy conjured up n direful picture
of a thousand ill* consequent upon tlm steppage
of tlie strcuui; no more ship* arriving nt Loudon
laden with the wealth of the world, file bankrupt
cy of rich merchants, the shutting up of Change,
the fuilurn of the Bank of England, the anguish
of ruiticd families, and tlie defeat of thousands in
the agonies of thirst.
The Germans tell a similar story of n traveller
who visited the spring* of the Danube; und
which, as we are upon the subject, may serve as
a pendent to thu story of our Cockney. Tho tra
veller in (Lift case was a .Swabian; uud whenever
the Gormans wish to palm off a joke, a Swabian
is sure to be tho him. On timming iu wlmt u
small stream the water trickled at the source of
that great river Danube, In- liirtued tho hold reso
lution of stopping it up. He put hi* baud across
it; uud he fancied tho various cities upon its
course deprived of their supply of witter by this
deed, he exclaimed, in pride ofliis heart, “What
