Mii.lkhgevii.lk, Nov. 28, 1851.
Thanksgiving day was observed in this place
in the usual manner. Tho doors of tho stores
wore nearly closed during tho whole day, but
an attentive observer might have seen that many
of thorn were ajar and that those within occa
sionally received a customer. Divine service was
held in the Methodist find Episcopal Churches.
In tho forenoon, by provioun arrangement, Mr.
linker, pastor of the Presby terian Church of this
city, preached to the united congregations of
the Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian Church
es. Rev. George White, of your city, officiated
in tho Episcopal Church. While i think that
many customs of our Northern brethren would
he **uiore honored in the breach than the ob
servance,” 1 cheerfully admit Unit we have rea
son to thank them for tho example they have
set us in this particular. Long may our pcopio
continue to unite annually os one great congre
gation, to return their tlumks to the Supremo
Being for the unprecedented blessings and pros
perities which tliey enjoy through llis bounty.
Mr. Baker staled tho interesting fact that 27
States hod appointed yesterday as a day of
Thanksgiving.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
On motion of Mr. Floyd, the order vVns sus-
pebded and the Bill to pardon Cornett of Morgan
wus taken up. On his further motion, tho Bill
was mado the special order for Tuesday next.—
The object of the postponement, ns I understood
it, was to have a fuller house upon the decision
of a question aflbeting the life of a human being;
there being ut present some thirty or forty mem
bers absent.
On the call of the Counties tho following
Bills wero introduced nnd road the first time :
Bv Mr. Tift, a Bill to authorize the Savannah
und Albany Railroad Company, to make uud
use Plank or MeAdatnized Ronds in connection
with or in lieu of their road uud brunches, and
to authorize the State to assist in tho construc
tion of said road, on certain conditions therein
named.
By Mr. Shcwinakc, a Bill to incorporate Hope-
well (Baptist) Church iu Burke County.
Mr. Patterson from tho Committee to whom
was referred the Bill in relation to the Pine lands
of Camden County heretofore reported, made a
report in favor of the same.
By Mr. Price, a Bill to incorporate the Romo
Branch Magnetic Telegraph Company.
By Mr. Anderson, u Bill to lay out a new
county out of parts of Habersham, Franklin,
Jackson and Hall.
By Mr. Smith, a Bill to compensate owners
qf Slaves executed for capital offences.
’ By Mr. Mobley, a Bill to regulate the prac
tice in Courts of Law aud Equity and to tlefinc
t^e powers of the same.
Mr. Thurmond presented tho petition of John
J. Flournoy of Jackson County, praying the re-
peul of the law which declares the deaf nnd
dumb idiots so fur as to appoint guardiuns for
them ; also to establish the right ot Polygamy.
This latter crotchet must have taken u vciy
tenacious hold of the bruin of Mr. Flournoy, for
I remember he wus before tho Legislature, lour
years ago, with a similar petition. 1 wonder lie
don’t remove to Turkey# where ho might enjoy
the privileges ho is asking for, without requiring
the united wisdom of tho Stute to frame u law
tq enable him to enjoy a wife or two more,
By Mr. Thurmond, a Bill to authorize hus
bands to collect, sue for, and recover all tho
property, reul aud personal, of their deceased
wives without administering on their estates,
and also to prescribe their liabilities for the debts
nnd contracts of their dcceuscd wives in certain
cuscs.
By Mr. Clark, of Stewart, a Bill to provide
for the payment of tho creditors of the Bank of
Darien.
By Mr. Stephens, n Bill to provido for the re
pairs of the State Roud, and to incorporate the
Wcste a a id Atlantic Ruiln.a I Ci np my. The
object of the Bill is to sell so many shares of

morning. II.
Millkdcevillk, Nov. 28,1851.
A Bill has been introduced into the lower
brunch of the Legislature, by Mr. Clark, of Stew
art, to authorize the subscription of three hun
dred thousund dollars, by the State, to tho stock
of the South-Western Rail-Road—'for the pur
pose of extending the same in the direction of
Fort Gaines. Tho Bill provides that the above
amount shall be subscribed by the State ns soon
as a similar amount lias boeri subscribed by indi
viduals. It bus been the policy of the State,
heretofore, not to aid in private enterpises ol this
character, tho subscription of twenty thousand
dollars to the Millcdgeville and Gordon Rail-
Road, for tho purpose of rendering the scat of
Government more accessible, having been the
ouly instunco, heretofore, of udeparture from it;
but, it seems to me that the peculiar circum
stances of this case may well warrant a change
of measures. Tho South*Wcstem # Rail-Road
now extends to Oglethorpe, on Flint river. Sou th
und west of that place, he ten of the incut fertile
tributary to the proposed road, and much of tho
produce of which now goes to Apulnchicola.
That produce iR taxed with the increitHcd cost of
freight and insurance consequent upon tho long
und dangerous vovngc around the peninsula of
Floridu, nnd would, at onco, neck nn Atlantic
port if tho menus for its transportation were pro
vided. Already, tho citizens of Eufaula und its
vicinity arc taking meusurcB to raise monoy for
the purpnso of building a brunch roud to tho
proposed extension, and it is behoved that the
uuiouut required tbr tliut purpose can be euHily
made up. The quantity of cotton, from the ad
joining counties in Alabama, tliut would be trans
ported over the Eufaula branch, together with
that from tho counties already alluded to—ull of
which would ho turned iu the direction oi 8uvnu-
null—would, probably, amount to from 100,000
to 150,000 bales. Hut, it will bo asked, whut in
ducement has tho 8tutc to subscribe to this
work ? In the first plucc, tho proposed roud
would greatly enhance the value of property,
and cause tho rapid settlement of vacant lands 111
South-Western Goorgia—these lands having re
mained vacant only heenuso of the inconvenience
and great expense of getting cotton to murket.
Tho additional amount of tuxes that would nn-
nnally accrue to tho State, in conscqucnco of
tho increased wealth of that section of country,
would greatly more than pay the interest on the
amount subscribed, and, in a lew years, would
pay both principal nnd interest. In the second
jiluce, the .South-Western Rnil-RodTI, since it
lias been in operation as far as Oglethorpe, has,
1 am told, yielded nett profits of something liko
8 per cent, per unnum. With tho increased bu
siness tliut it would do in consequence of its
extension, it is evident thnt it would prove a good
investment for capital. In tho third place, oftho
four millions that huvo already been expended
by the State iu tho construction of tho Western
nnd Atlantic Rail-Road, tho pcopio of South-
Western Georgia huvo already paid, in tuxes,
more than the amount asked for; and,cut oft*,ns
tliey are, from any Ituil-Road connection with it,
they have, heretofore, derived no benefit from the
expenditure. It would seem, therefore, tliut sheer
justice to thorn would require the Stuto to givo
them this aid, especially when, us is shown above,
she can do it without injury to herself.
There are other amendments of a national
character, which furnish strong reasons for tho
building of this road, to which 1 may nlludo
hereafter* lt'is sufficient for the present, how
ever, that in the above remarks I have called the
attention of your people to a matter tliut ncurly
concerns their interests.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. Gardner presented the memorial of tho
citizens of Pike against the formation of a new
County.
Mr. Dawson, of Green, introduced a Bill to
pardon Joliu B. Malone, otherwise John B. Hull
of Green, now confined in tho Penitentiary for
life,
On motion of Mr. McDougald, the House took
up his Bill to prevent the introduction of sluves
into this Stute for sale or hire. Mr. McDougald
mid Judge Merriwetlier offered certain amend
ments. which were ugreod to, and 150 copies of
tho Bill us upended ordered to be priuted. The
Bill wrh then urndo the special order for Wed
nesday next. There is no doubt a general de
mand by the people of the State for the enact
ment of such a law, und the qnlv diversity of
opinion among members appears to bo iu regard
to tho provisions of tho Bill, so us to rcuucr it
more etYcctuod.
The House then wont into the consideration of
Bills of a local character, and after expending
somo time therein, adjourned till Monday
morning.

The Done Star Order*
The Lafayette, La., Statesman lies a commu
nication referring to some scurrilous and calum
nious retnarks of the Washington Republic, in
reference to this new order,—which we learn is
progressing in numbers beyond all precedent,—
in Now Orleans, Lnfuyettc, and other portions of
tho South-West. The New Orleans Delia
copies tlie Statesman's articlo, prefacing it with
tho remark, that, since its rccont effusion against
gentlemen of the highest honor and respectabi
lity, who were connected with tho Cuban Ex
pedition, the abuse of the Republic has grown
to bo the highest compliment which can be
offered to any association of gentlemen and patri
otic Republicans:
“ More FiUibusterism is tho caption of an edi
torial of tho half of a column in length that ajff* *
pea red in the Washington Republic of the 28th'
October, devoted to a tirade against tho Order
of the L0110 Star, denouncing as having for its
object the invasion and plundering of a friendly,
power, uud tlioso connected with it ns lonfcrd
and scoundrels. Never did a more reckless and
fulse statement appear in print.
“ The constitution plainly and explicitly sets
forth the object of this order to bo the extension
of the area of liberty and elevating the character
of mankind. Men of the highest standing nro
at its head. None nro admitted who do uot pos
sess a good moral character nnd enrn n liveli
hood by visible r.nd honorable means. It dobs
uot nt ray itself against the government; on tho
contrary, it will support all republics to the last
extremity. Tho laws of our country are not,
nor will they be infringed 1 religion is not trench
ed upon, nor will it bo; Cuba is not mentioned.
Then why this wholesale abuse of an order which
is entirely secret, enlisted iu n worthy and noble
cause? Would to God thnt tho Republic was
enguged likewise, instead of pampering and sus
taining an administration which tronts those
near our borders seeking liberty and freedom, as
did France poor nnd uutortunnto Italy.
“ It requires secrecy and unanimity to accom
plish any great object, and in the right manner
lias this order set to work. From the well di
rected nnd extensive arrangements (bat baVfe al
ready been made, ere n year passes round, from
twenty to thirty tliousuud members will bo con
nected with the Older ol the Lone Star, thus ac
cumulating a fund wherewith to build an engino
to work in the cause of liberty, capable of extin
guishing despotism any and everywhere. No
order iu the world has prospered nnd spread with
the same rapidity. Thousands uro knocking at
its door for admission, uud applications for char
ters nro coming from all quarters. Soon will its
effects and influence bo felt. Where once tyran
nical and oppressive laws governed the people,
those bequeathed hy the Almighty to his children
will have been substituted. Intelligence, liberty
aid freedom will reign, in lieu of ignorance,
treachery, aud despotism. Tho treo lias been
pluntcd; itH roots urc penetrating in every di
rection ; its branches uro extending und its leaven
becoming countless; und nil the virulence blown
forth by tlie Republic has only tho effect of ac
celerating Its growth. LIBERTY.

an instance of more emphatic and comprehensive
cursing tliunllie tallowing from In go Id shy’s Jack
