Effect of Climate on Consumption.—The Med
ical Faculty aro beginning to question tho opinion
-which has eo long prevailed among modical men,
that achangoof climate is beneficial to persons
Buffering with tho consumption. Sir James Clare,
or England Jias assailed the doctrine,with consider
able force, and a French physician named Carri
ers has written against it; but the most vigorous
opponent of it is Dr. Burgess, of whom a recent
articloin Chafnbcrf Edinburgh Journal gives an
an account Dr. Buboess contends that climate
has little or nothing to do with tho euro of con
sumption, and that if it had tho curativo effects,
would be produced through the skin, and not the
lungs. That a warm climate is not in itself bene
ficial, he shows from the fact, that tho disease ex
ists in all latitudes- In India and Africa, tropical
climates, it is as frequent as in Europo or North
America. All the curative resorts, now in fashion,
aro more productive of consumption than any local
ity of Groat Britain. Naples, Florence, Nice, Ge
noa, Venico, all generate more consumption than
London, Liverpool, Edinburgh, and Manchester.—
Madeira, tho chosen paradise of pulmonary patients,
is more unfavorable to the disease than England.
Aix and Montpelier are no better, if not worse.—
Pisa is woreo than all; so that Italian climate, for
consumptive-cure, is pronounced an arrant “hum
bug.” Change of air, in the same climate, is the
sanative theory of Dr. Burgess, deduced from the
most expansive observations and industrious exper
iments in “climatology.” "Give mo Italy, or I per
ish," “give us a warm climate,” which is now the
iashionable cry of rich patients, will soon bo
changed to “change of air at home,” in tho opinion
of Dr. Burgess, whose new theory will bring con-
Bolation.if not cure, to every poor person who la
bors under this oifiictivo malady and cannot take a
voyage to Italy.
Progress op Humbug.—The Spiritual Tele
graph, for last week, has an account of a ghostly
communion recently held at Auburn, State of Now
York, (that hot-bed of “isms,”) in the coureo of
which the spirit of Henry Clay, wo aro gravely
.told, was evoked, and spoke (through the “medi
um”) as follows:
“The Medium” Hooking into tho Spirit World]
jawed bis head and exclaimed:
“Yonder is Mr. Clay! His tall, majestic figure
moves gracefully. Feasting his soul in admiration,
ha raises his eyes, to the high conony, and tracing
the lpUy and noble columns, ho meditates, and says:
“0, why did not tills scone open before upon my
eyes i Hero aro joys hitherto to mo unknown, here
eternal harmony swells around and above, and even
loposa has a voice that lulls to unison. There is
jio Constitution to bo broken—no compacts to bo
violated—no platforms to be erected, to concentrate
action. No strifo or war of words is required to lib-
* crate tho captive from bis fetters; but the soft zo
e iyrs of eternal love breathe over us, cheering and
vigoratlng the happy throng; while smiles of
‘eternal truth play on the faco ol tho Kederaor of tho
'World, to gladden the hearts of all. And the sol
emn pinna of praise and thanksgiving now go up
from my brother servants and ray humblo self;
II. Clay.”

Now-llamnsliiro, as commissioner of land claims

Brunswick and Florida Railroad, otherwise called
Brunswick and Pensacola Railroad.
Tho prominonco which hna been given to this
hitherto abandoned, now revived project, by the
communication of tho Honorable Samuel Foot,
President, in tho American Railroad Journal of
August 7,1852, tho letter by “Traveller" In tho
Savannah Georgian of the 1st inst., and an article
in our own columns written on tho authority of Mr.
Alexander Scranton, “Agent of tho Company for
procuring subscriptions aud tho right of way”—
render it necessary that a calm survey of tho wholo
subject should meet the public eye. The Savannah
Courier claims to bo the friend and advocate of
tho Brunswick eutorprize, and it is reasonable to
suppose that if any impropor representations shall
be made against tho Brunswick Company, or if any
fair questions concerning the funds of tho Company
shall bo nskod, that journal will bo able to cor
rect tho ono or gnawer tho other.
Tho revived enterprizo is claimed os n Georgia
proceeding; its action is within our limits; and its
failure would be a stain on tho State's honor. It is
therefore tho duty of any and every citizen to ex
amine this projoct, “root and branch”—its origin—
its connections—its prospects, and its probable re
sults. Truth, and nothing but truth, is the great
objoct wo havo in view. We will endeavor to
show that theso Georgia gentlemen, Messrs.
Blacksheab, Knight, Scranton, and others,
though acting in perfect sincerity and good faith,
havo never received true information as to the real
state of things.
Simultaneously with the movements which were
made some seventeen years ago, to revivo tho
commerce of Savannah, a vigorous effort was made
to build up tho town of Brunswick, which town,
from tho day of its first survey and location,had nev
er been tenanted by as many as an hundred inhabi
tants. Considerably over half a million of dollars
was spent in that effort,chiefly by tho pooplo of Bos
ton, and there was an utter and entire failure,
marked by tho remains of an unfinished Canal to
the Altamaha, and au unlocated Rail Road to tho
Chattahoochee River. Tho projectors of this
schemo held a charter for a Canal and Rail Road
to tho River Altamaha, and another charter for
Rail Road between Brunswick nnd Florida. They
became purchasers of nearly all tho Town Lota
and of largo tracts of land adjoining, on which “to
oxtend the area of (municipal) freedom,” and tho
chief of them seriously and cxullingly spoko of the
best plan for paving tho numerous streets of the
now commercial metropolis.
These aro matters of history, known to tho peo
ple of Georgia, and they were indellibly impressed
on tho memory by the record of a lost sum, filty
thousand dollars out of the public treasury, gener-
uualy tubeutibod by the Lcm^ntiiro “to aid nnd
assist tho opening of tho port of Brunswick.”—
That record will bo adverted to in tho sequel.
Tho charter for tho Rail Road, and the amend
ments thereto, give authority to construct "a JlajJ
"Road communication between Brunswick and tho
" Territory ol Florida,” and “ ono or more Branch
“ Rail Roads from their main trunk to the Florida
“ line," or “ to construct and opon a Rail Road
“communication between the State of Florida and
“ tho city of Savannah, instead of Brunswick, should
“ tho stockholders deem it necessary and advisa-
“ bio.” Five dollars per share of one hundred, are
to be paid at the time of subscribing, and that
money is to be paid by the Commissioners into a
Bank in Savannah, or into tho Bank of Brunswick,
which once, and for a brief space, rested on tho
Bank of Turtle River, but now exists at Augusta.
A subscription oi one million dollars (with tho five
dollars per share paid and deposited,) is by tho
original charter a pro-requisite to organization.—
After that, another million may be taken, on pay
ment of five dollars per Bhare down, and thoeo two
millions may be “increased one-third,” or $6G6,666
G6-I00. We thus see the charter and privileges of
the Brunswick and Florida Rail Road Company.
And now as to its organization: Wo aro
informed that this took place at Brunswick
on tho 17th day of Juno last, by the election of Di
rectors, who subsequently elected the Honorable
Samuel Foot, (Senator from Vermont in tho Con
gress of the United States) their President. No
evidence has yet been given of the bona fide sub
scription of ono milliou of dollars, in the spirit of
the charter, and tho payment and deposit© of fifty
thousand dollars in cash. It is remarkable that the
communication of Mr. Foot, tho President, does
not contain a lino on this subject. “ Traveller,” or
Mr. JvDsoir, says: “ A subscription of a million of
dollars to the stock being required by tho charter,
prior to organization, tho Commissioners announced
at Brunswick that more than that amount had
been taken.” The btatement of our friend, Mr.
Scranton, is, “that- the cash subscriptions in
Southern Georgia, New-York, and Boston, amount
ed, on tho 17th of June last, to 81,283,000— a li per
fectly good,” See., See. And yet the inference, not
only from the silence, but from tho actual represen
tation of Mr. President Foot, is irresistible that no
speb subscription ss the charter requires was over
made. That gcntloman says that a contract has
been made with Collins & Alexander “for
building tho entire eastern division of their road
for $13,000 per mile. This division extends from
Brunswick 130 miles west to Thomasvilo, Georgia,
with a branch from near Troupvillo, north-west 58
miles to Albany, on Flint river,” and that tho Com
pany is to furnish the contractors with iron rails at
$45.00 per ton. Ho further says: “With tho ex
ception of the iron which the Company will require
to purchaso, tho contractors receivo all their pay
ment for tho entire work from tho Georgia subscri
bers to tho Company’s stock, and this subscription
is made up by tho wealthy planters along the lino,
and already is amplo in amount to pay for all tho
land, land damages, fencing, bridging, grading and
track-laying." Ho also says: “Tho contractors
aro men of wealth, and so well satisfied aro they
with tho ability and promptness of these subscribing
planters, that they havo covenanted to take upon
themselves tho collection of those subscriptions,
without expenso to tho Company, and thus to put
tho wholo eastern portion of the road in running
condition, from the collections they toill make in
Georgia, on tho Company finding tho iron.”
Lot tho statement of Mr. Foot bo placed in fig
ures:
188 miles of Road and 10 miles of Siding, at
$13,000 per mile, will cost 2.674.000
Deduct for Iron Rails, 198 miles at 4.500
per mile 891.000
by (ho Commissioners, according to Mr. JuiSson.
- Tho fact is notorious that tho planters’ notes are
conditional, and that the wholo havo not yet reach
ed the sum of half a million. Contradiction of drift
is challongod. And tho fact that tho Company of
fer its bonds for $1,200,000 to pay for iron, coupled
with tho statement of President Foot that tho notes
of tho planters were to pay for everything but tho
iron, shows conclusively that there was no real re
liable cash subscription whatover, to tho Brunswick
and Florida Road.
Toshow what theso planter’s notes aro, look at
tho following from tho Albany Patriot republished
in tho Georgian of July 6:
“N.W.Collier, Esq-whohas boon appointed agent
of tlio Brunswick and Florida Rail Road Company, ter
the purpose of procuring conditional subscriptions for
stock, called a preliminary meeting on Satuiday. Tho
proposition of the Company It to take notes due and
payable when tho Rail Rood shall bo so fer completed
that tho cars run from Brunswick to tho east bank or tho
river opposite to Albany. Over fifty thousand dollars of
slock has been taken this week.”
ltiswoll known that agonts aro out along tho
wholo lino note, seeking theso conditional notes,
and tho statement is repeated that those notes do
not yet amount to half a million. No cash sub
scription or unconditional subscription has been
made by tho pooplo of Georgia, unless for a trifling
amount. According to Mr. Scranton, ns relatod
by us Borne days ago, tho cash subscriptions must
havo been in New-York and Boston,
could they not pay for tho iron 1
Theso conditional notes aro not authorized by
but are believed to be, in direct violation of the
charter, which oxpresaly requires $5 per share to
bo paid cash. Such notes woro never in tho con
templation of tho Legislature which gavo tho
charter. Tho planters aro honorablo men, and aro
well disposed to pay, but such notes are not re
coverable in law. There is mystery in this organ
ization. There is mystery ns to tho Company’s
funds. Tho poople of Georgia havo a right to
know what the truth really is.
But Collins and Alexander are to build tho
Road for planter’s notes, “ duo and payable” when
tho Road roaches, in running ordor, certain points.

Yellow Fever in Charleston.
Our city has been filled with rumors, for tho laat
two days, of the provaiouce, in Charleston, of yel
low fever in a malignant form, and according to
tho accounts, the mortality is already very great.
Wo sincerely hope it may not be truo, yet, it has
reached us in so many and such reliablo forms that
wu cannot doubt that tho disease Has mado its ap-
pearanco in that city.
Tho papers, however, are perfectly muto on tho
subject, whilo tho country is being filled by passen
gers and others with what we believe to bo moat
exaggerated accounts. Under such circumstances
we think tho journals would be but serving the in
terests of tho city by giving faithful daily reports of
tho progress of tho aisoase. This, however, is a
matter Tor tho exercise of tho discretion of tho au
thorities. with which we havo nothing to do.—Au
gusta Chronicle It Sentinel of Tuesday,
Wo havo for several days past been in possession
of the fact that there waa yellow fever in Charles
ton, but we have not raontionod it, lest an improper
motive might be attributed to us. A resident of |
that city assured us last week that a young man
on acquaintance of his, had died of it, and that
many ns fifteen cases wero reported to have exis
ted on Tuesday last. This may bo an exaggera
tion, but that there havo been a number of cases of |
yellow fover in Charleston, and that it is thereat
this time, information from various sources leaves
us no room to doubt. The Catholic Miscellany |
of Saturday, published there, contains obituary no
tices of fivo who died of yellow fever, and four who
died of stranger’s or country fover, which is under
stood to bo tho samo thing—all within a Week. It
should be romombered that tho Miscellany publish
es obituaries of Catholics only.
The FresheL
river opposite tho town presented a singu-
lar spectacle on Friday afternoon and Saturday.
The variety of objects indicating the approach of
the freshet was curious—such as trunks of trees,
branches, planks, timber, fenco rails, rafts of cane
reeds, tufts of grass, etc., etc. During about half
tho time, whilo the tide was coming in, tho resist
ance of tho descending flood to tbo tidal wave
caused all theso floating objects to remain porfectly
stationary.
We learn tiiat tho plantations of Messrs. Cuts.
holm, Pritchard, Berrien, Winkler, and Cuyler,
were overflowed yesterday. In somo of theso coses,
however, the water had boon admitted to save tho
embankments from rupture, though, in at least- one
instance, the stop was subsequently regretted, as it
might be unnecessary. The result will proba
bly bo known to-day, as tho water undoubted at
tained to its greatest height last evening. Tho
wind blew all day yesterday from tho North East
—a most unfavorable circumstance.
Locomotives for the Central Rail Road.
We aro pleased to obsorvo that tho Central Road
has adopted the plan of drawing their passenger
trains by lighter locomotives than somo of thoso
hitherto used. Tho “ Clintonand “ Spartaf’ aro
machines of this class—weighing only about twelve
tons each. Tho former is already doing good ser
vice on tho road. Tho latter has just arrived here
from tho manufactory of Messrs. Rogers, Ketciium
Sc Grosvenor Such machines os thoso aro am
ply adequate to perform the scrvico for light pas
senger trains, and will save a good deal of woar
and tear to tho road. Wo havo often been surprised
to see engines weighing from 17 to 20 tons appoint
ed to do this light work. It is like appointing a
giant to a task which a common-sized man can do
just as well.
Speaking of Engines, tho Central Rail Road is
soon ro recoivo ono which will bo quite a curiosity.
It is called tho " Spring Hill,”—coat, with tender
attached, about $3,000. Weight about four tons.
It will be permanently stationed at tho depot hero,
for tho purposo oi pushing about thoso loaded cars
which aro now hauled so slowly and laboriously
by tho hands about tho depot. For this object, it
will bo a most valuable servant, saving both time
