The current of business will bo directed to tlm city of Savannah, by ship ments of supplies direct to that port Irom tlm Nnrtb.tn proceed by the centra) toad in that State to tlm inland town*. All who are interested iu tlm Augusta and Hamburg toad are therefore deeply concerned in the completion ofthia scheme for connecting Charleston with Wikuiilgtun by Rail Road communication. Iu order to illustrate the truth of tlm remarks of the Mercury, so fur as the transportation or supplies to the ulterior is concerned, we state the fiict—that during the present reason, notwith standing the uuexampled pressure of tlm times, the short crop of Cotton, aud die consequent pressure in die money market, the upward freights enthe Snvanash uhu Muouo luiii Romi have been twice as great n* at tlm corresponding time Inst year—and a single twain of freight car* has left the Rail Koax> Depot at one TIME WITH SUrt-LlE* FOR AS HANT AS 40 DIFFER ENT counties, and among them were nrauy of tiie remote Cherokee Comities.

To chew the importance of tlicsccoimnunica- lion* inurirhi detail—we stntcp Tlm gross receipts of the Georgia Wail Road, now being constructed, for transportation, aie es-| inflated uponxpecific data to be 400,4X10 dollar* per uniiuyi. This amount is estimated Upon ilia] assumption ihut tho road will terminate at Adi- "Otlt. Augusta, the largest interior •conitnorcial city 1 of tlm South, i* the next point. Tlut.prrtienl population of Augusta is estimated at between seven und eight thousand inhabitants; and imme diately adjoining, connected by two bridge*, is tint important town of Hamburg iu South Caro lina. Of dm crop of Oottoii made ill 4835, dm 1 receipts at Augusta will-be 140.000 bales,und at Hamburg 35.000, making an aggregate of 175,- 000 bates, which,at 50 dollars per bale, niukes mi unmiiiit of 8,750,000 dollars. The sale of Mer chandise may be safely estimated to exceed seven' uiilfimu uf dollars,tlm* making nu aggregate com mercial tmsm«*R -of the year exceeding fifteen UM.ltim* of dnllurs. Bugging, Flour, and Bacon aro ‘leading articles of importation for interior consumption. Tlm commercial bnsinc*s*of Augusta ia carried oii bydieUuil Road with Charleston, and by I steam boats with Savannah—I through which-cities, all her import* uud exports are mude. The bu siness on dm Savannah River alone, vnnplny* 20 steam boats and about 50 tow bouts. TImfreiglil on dm import* of Anguela, from Suvanuxli, though curried at very low rates, exceeds 200,000 dollars per enuum. lJivereitig from the Georgia Rail Rond line, at a point above Athens to dm south, die communi cation i* opened by Forsyd* with Macon aud all south-western Georgia. Tho receipts ofCottop at Mncou the past sea son amounted to 80,000 bales, of die average weight of350 pounds, which nl the market value, produced over four millions of Dollar*. The re ceipts at other place* above Darien, amounted to 20,000 bule*, and in value to mm milium of dol lar* . The sales of merchandise ut Mucun fa r din year limy be estimated at 3,500.000 dollar*, und other place* on tlm river at 7 to 600.000 dollars, making nil aggregate commercial business for the year ot over ume millions uf dollars. The transportation of cotton uud merchandice on the Orotic** and Ocmulgee rivers, employs at present eight steamboats mid fifty tow bouts and pole boat*. From Macon to Savannah, the Cen tral Rail Road of Georgia is uboiit being construc ted. From Macon to Columbus on die Cliattahoo- chie river, tlm present counmimcafmti is by two daily lines of Post Coaclies,butwHlwidiontdoubt, soon require n Rail Read. Macon is nMues- timiiihly the second, and Columbus tlm third city iu commercial importance indie Southern Stales. Though of recent origin, they huve already out stripped their cider competitors, and ore growing w ith a rapidity only equalled hy dm most flour ishing towns of the north and west. The quantity of Cotton made in Georgia dm Inst season and exported by dm way of Co him- hu* und dm Chattahtiochw und Flint Rivws to Apalachicola exceeded forty thousand bales, and in value over two million of dollars, employing two steamboat* on tlm Flint nnd twelve on the Chnttahoncoie river. In diis section, of tho coun try. a large portion of tlie.best Cotton lauds are not yet brought into cultivation, and tlm produc tion is yearly increasing in u great ratio. We Imve staled foot a rail road entering tho nordmru boundary of Georgia, ut any point be- twevpn South Carolina and Alubumn, would com- niunicntis by the Georgia Rail Road dirough Ath ens to Augusta, and from that point wotthl com mand the trade ofboih Charleston and Savannah, thus giviifg n choice of dm two most important markets of dm Son them Atlantic coast. The city of Savannah in 1830 contained a pop- illation of 7900 inhabitant*. By information de- rival from dm local audiuritie*, the population i* now stated at 11,000. Th« exports of cotton from Savannah of the crop mndo in 1835, will be about 250,000 bales, which at the average value of 55 dollar* per hale, will unount to $13,750,000 dollni*. The export of rice of the crop of 1835, will be about 24.000 rn«k*. aud will amount in value to $450,000.— The exports ofLnmbernnd nil other article* may amount to $7511,000, making au aggregate of nearly fifteeu million* of dollar* in value export ed ofthe produce of the country from Savannah the present year. Tlm imports into Savannah the present year from all quarter* will exceed twelve million* of dollars, part of which is sold in Savannah, nnd part forwarded in the original pnekuge* to Au* gnsta, Mncon and other places in the interior.— The intercourse between Savannah and N. York ulone employs fifteen regular packets mnttv ol diem large ship*, borides transient vessel*. But the largest busmens from Savnnunli i* direct with Liverpool. In eight und a half months, to wit: from Oct. 1,1835, to June J6.1836. there wa* shipped from Savannah direct to Liverpool, 125,- 8U7 hale* of Cotton, which at tlm value of 56 dol lar* per bale, amounted to $6,919,385. From Savannah steamboats inn to Augusta, In Charleston, tn Darien, to Macon In the St.Johns River, Host Florida, and to ull die intermediate place* on the coast and river*. By a statement published iu die Savannah Georgian on the 17th of June 1836, it appears that the merchant* of Savannah were then own er* in thirty-seven ship* and brigs, beside* small er vessels, and steamboat*—that of these, eigh teen were ship* of tlie largest class avetuging over 500 ton* each. From Savannah the Central Rail Road will lend directly into the heart of Georgia, nnd ar rangements are being m»d« to count'd line* of steam packets running to Norfolk and Nuw-York. Having pointed mil the important cutntiicrcinl point*, placed in direct communication with the west by n rail road coming from thence, and en tering the northern boundary of Georgia, We now stile, the entire country embraced iu this sketch is almost exclusively n country producing cotton and rice, and consuming largely the pro ducts, niiinufactorie* nnd stock of the west.

B. PARKMAN. WILLIAM DEARING, JAMES R. BUTTri, UOB’T. CAMPBELL, T. G. CASEY. The Budget of tie Bubble Family, by Lady Bulwer. We scarcely, know what to suy of these vol* unies. There is certainly an interest-attached to whatever full* from the pen of this celebrated In dy, partly on accountef tlio celibrily of her hus band, and partly on acounnt of the painful and mortifying position in which she is placed, by her separation from Sir Edward. We have certainly hitherto evinced a dinposi. lion to battle for tire My in this family quaire), and came to tlie perusal -of this work, with a dis position to he easily 4>leased, but we have been disappointed most wnefully. There is not even ihe interest in these volumes which was found iu Chavcly, because there, the public expected and found, a caustic, personal satire upon a celebrat ed untlror and hi* family—a famous dish of gos- sip and scandal was looked for and found, but here tlie broad caricatures of tho Babble Family, are nlllost upon American readers, because they nre not acquainted wills the original*. It is true, that the lady tells us plain enough as tn her po litical antipathies, and we may conclude that the Bubbles are all Whig*, but further than that it is impossible for the American reader to diviue her ami. Some wag observed, upon hearing Vice-Presi dent Johnson’s long winded speeches, that he be. iieved now that he if killed Tecumseh, he musj Imve gone at him with twaddle. So it is with Lady Bulwer, having failed to auiliilate the Bar onet With satire, she has gone nt him with twad dle, ond if he survives the unmerciful dose, sho must turn him over to the Tecumseh killer. Lady BnWnr is undoubtedly a woman of fine talents and many acquiremehts, but her mind (a* well as her temper,) is entirely undisciplined.— Pussi-on, and genius, and learning, ail run riot in her composition, ond this book is a legitimate re sult of th&struggle. No personal or political novel ever did or ever will become o general favorite or conduce tn tho tasting fame of its author. No one can write a generally interesting story under high ex traneous influence. Swift, it i* true, produced a sathe upon the execration of traveller*, which has outlived his own time, ond v.*i\! survive ours hut Gulliver U such a masterly production that it might live upon the merit* of tho story alone, inriepeudaut of nil ulterior aim* of the author, This book will be read by every body iu spite of any criticism of ours, if it was only to glean imre aud mere,ihe few paragraphs ott which she makes a fling at tlm Baronet, nnd ill tills respect they will not be disoppointed, for she not only spits poison ut him, but spatters tha Whole mas. online gender with hnr venom—at least all tlmt are married, or who aim at that state. Only old batcimlors now find favor in her eyes, end truth, to say alielms drawn a noble hut odd specimen of tlie class iu Marmuduke Bubble. If oil her char- ncters were ns well drawn and well sustained as this mm, this wonld be a noble book. It is for sale at Col. William*'.
