The Milledgeville Kailroad.
A correspondent, writing to ua from
Milledgeville, says:
If we only had the Mayfield Railroad
running through, I could get yon » P°°d
list of subscribers here. Nearly every
one here takes a Macon Daily, but would
prefer one from Augusta ; but the cir
cuitous route they must come puts them
a day behind time. Augusta and the
Georgia Railroad have lost more by the
non-completion of this road in the last
two years than it would have taken to
complete the road throngh to Macon.
It is to the latter sentence in the fore
going paragraph that we desire to call
particular attention. It is true that the
iujury caused to us, individually, by the
non completion of the Milledgeville
Road, is of great importance to us indi
vidually ; but the injury done to the
trade and to tiJe other interests of the
City are of great importance to the
whole community.
Our correspondent is correct in his
conclusions. The want of this road is
seriously felt here. Its completion
would he of the greatest advantage to
our community. Why it is not com
pleted, we are unablo to say.
We need not recapitulate the advan
tages to l*e derived from the completion
and opening of this road. They were
deemed-of moment enough to authorize
a subscription of half a million of
dollars by the City Council of Augusta.
Since that time, another advantage will
be derived from the connection of this
road with the Columbia and Augusta
Railroad, forming a throngh line on the
shortest route from the Northeast to the
Southwest.
We invite the attention of those inter
ested to this subject, and urge upon
tbeir earliest consideration the import
ance of finishing the road without delay.
More Sympathy.—A correspondent
in the interior writes to us as follows :
“I confess I don’t understand how the
Const nationalist and Chronicle and
Senlinel made you pay the SI,OOO for
getting the Press news. It seems me
an outrage. It will eventually inure to
your benefit.”
We are thankful for the good wishes
of our friends ; arid hope that we shall
always deserve them.
GEORGIA ITEMS.
A little child of David Norman, in
Clayton county, fell into a tub of hot
water prepared for scalding hogs, and
was so injured that it died in a few
hours.
Bishdp Lytk-li will lecture in Atlanta
for the benefit of the poor on Thursday
night.
Mr. J. W. Hunt Reynolds, of Frank
fort, Kentucky, has sent SI,OOO to Col.
Mott, of Columbus, for the poor of that
city.
The ship Java, wrecked on Warsaw
Shoal, was sold on Monday for $155.
The Stevdores of Savannah are on a
strike,
Mr. John Landrum and his wife died
in Cuthbert on the same day, last week,
and were buried in the same grave.
R. J. Moses, Esq., of Columbus, pro
poses to import Scotch labor for South
western Georgia. He urges that the
reason some emigration schemes have
not worked well has been that the
labor has been obtained through unre
liable agents, who picked up unreliable
loafers in New York, who would not, of
course, stick to their contracts. Major
Moses proposes to get a thrifty and
reliable class of people who will'make
good citizens.
Morb Good Words.—The Savannah
Advertiser , says.
The proprietors of the Augusta Con
ttilulioii'ilist and Chronicle gave a sup
per on Friday night last to the attaches
of the Telegraph office and the em
ployees of both papers. They could
well afford it out of that little bonus of
five hundred dollars paid each of them
by the Daily Press.
And tbfe Baitibridge (Ga.) Argus thus
discourses on the same subject:
Our friend, E. H. Pughe, editor and
proprietor o! that live paper, the Augus
ta Daily Piwtss, has been forced to pay
the proprietors of the two other papers
in that city one thousand dollars lor the
privilege of publishing the telegraphic
dispatches ol the Local Association, We
know nothing of the justice or injustice
of the demand, but we are pleased to
see that bur friend, notwithstanding the
stringency of the times, was enabled
promptly to pay the amount, and con
tinues to "puss onward and upward,”
determined not to be outdone in the
con lest for the palm, The Daily
Presh is the official paper of the city ol
Augusta, end has been recently awarded
the right' to publish the list of letters in
the city post office on accoufit of its cir
eolation being larger than that ol any
other Augusta pnper.
Prentice says the muddy streets of
Louisville are proof that the inhabitants
are not transgressors; for the way of
transgressors is hard.
Does the old fellow mean to say that
the Louisvilliaus are soft in their undei
standings.
Suffrage Rod Amnesty.
It seems there is a scheme on foot
among the politicians by which , the
South is to sanction impartial suttnge.
aa it is called, and the North, or the
Government, is, In return, to grant »ui
venal Amnesty and representation in
Congress. Governor Orr, of South
Carolina, and other lending politicians
North and South, are said to be engi
neering the project.
It is well that it should be dietinerfy
understood what ie meant by ‘‘ttnpar
tiul" and by “qualified” suffrage. Such
terms signify nothing more or leas than
negro suffrage—that is the cat in the
meal tub, whitened a little by plausible
won)*. Never wee a better example of
Talleyraud's maxim “Words are very
useful in concealing our ideas.”
We do not care, at present, thoroughly
to discuss the proposed project, but it
serves to illustrate the sudden and vio
lent changes to which politics and poli
ticians are liable. Not many days
since the Constitutional Amendment
was rejected by the Legislature, partly
fjr the reason that it imposed upon ua
negro suffrage. It was denounced by
the press ns inlumous for the same
reason that it compelled ns to make the
negro our equal at the ballot-box. It
did nothing of the sort, however; it
merely proposed to apportion every
where in the United States representa
tion accordiug to the voting population.
If the Southern States chose to give the
right of suffrage to the negroes, they
would be entitled to a representation in
Congress greater even than before seces
sion. If they chose to refuse it tbeir
representation would be less, because
three-fifths of the negroes would not be
counted as formerly. The power of the
States of prescribing the qualification of
voters was left untouched. The Legis
lature could admit or exclude the
negroes, as they cho9e, and howsoever
they might decide, the privilege of rep
resentation in Congress, according to
the number of voters in the State when
restored, would remain intact. This
was the whole story, and upon this was
predicated the assertion that the Amend
ment imposed negro suffrage upon the
South.
How much better Is the scheme pro
posed ? By the Amendment, the South
had the choice to admit negroes to vote
or not. The only condition was, that
representation in Congress should be
guaged by voting population, If the
treaty proposed by these politicians is
perfected, the South will be left no
choice, she will be'bound by its condi
tions to submit to negro suffrage. If
that is not worse than the Amendment,
it certainly is no better.
The suddenness of this change won
the part of the politicians, leads to the
suspicion that it was not the alleged
negro suffrage feature which aroused
the violent opposition to the Amend
ment, and that we must seek for the
cause of their denunciation of it in
some other clause than that fixing the
basis of representation. We all know
that their self-sacrificing love of the
popular interests would not have suf
fered them to allow a whole people to
remain disfranchised and without their
rightful representation in Congress,
merely because they themselves were
excluded from office for a time, while
every other right which their fellow
citizens enjoyed was restored and guar
anteed to them. No, this is a sort o(
dog-in-the manger conduct, of which no
one can believe these eminent men to
be guilty I What, then, was the cause of
the summitry rejection of the Constitu
tional Amendment?
Quintus.
Cincinnati and Charleston Rail
road.—A correspondent of the New
York Times says (his great work, which
was projected many years ago, is being
pushed steadily forward, and- will be
ruuning, before many months, to the
foot of the North Cirolina mountain.
This road opens up for Knoxville the
rich Cotton lands of the Little Tennessee;
and the mineral wealth of Smoky
Mountain, and will, when completed to
the seaboard, pour them into the lap of
Charleston. By the construction of a
road from Augusta to the Blue Ridge,
via the Savannah valley, and a connec.
tion, from Augusta with Port Royal,
the great West will find the shortest
route to the sea, and Augnsta become
a great depot for Western products, from
which shippers at Savannah, Port Royal,
and Charleston will make up their
cargos.
The completion of this work is only a
matter ot time. The scarcity of money
at present forbids any material aid to
the enterprise from this section ; bnt
two or three good cro.p years will give
us means for the prosecution of the
work, when, we can not doubt, that an
enterprise of such preeminent impor
tance will receive the attention it
deserves.
Augusta is the natural intersecting
point for the great central line from
Washington to New Orleans with the
shortest line from the Chio to the
Atlantic. An examination of the map
will prove this to be true. Let those
who croak about Augusta as'a finished
city, and talk about going to some more
promising locality, look well to the
natural advantage* of this sturdy city,
before hazarding the uncertainties of a
change.

that it means JUST WHAT IT CARRIES ON ITS FACE WITHOUT DISCOUNT.
