The practicabili ty of such a route will he better understood by all parties when they shall be “'sufficiently inhumed" on that subject by the Report of the F.ngincor now in the field. If the peoplo of Florida make good tlietr subotription of *800,• DUO, the books for which are to be opened iu Tallahassee this day, we have uo doubt that line of connection will be adjusted in accord ance with the mutual interests of the pnrties A line so far East through a couutry that has nothing to invite the construction of a railroad is not the favorite line of our people. A short- lino to connect through Thomasville with Tallahassee, would be preferred. But the settlement of this question depends mainly on the action of the peoplo of Florida. Savannah will make good her pledges whenever the con ditions of those pledges are complied with. In any event we hopo to see the connection consummated, by which we will not only obtain peedy accoss to Florida, but her people will bo made participants iu the benefits and ad vantages of our groat Atlantic and Gu|£Road, which they "Will find au outlotto the Atlan tic and Gulf ports, and by which they will be brought in conneotion with the entire railroad svsteu^pf the South and Southwest.

But uow within a fortnight of the lima fixed for opeuing tile subscription, it comos to bo known that Savuu- nah has her engineers, in Middle Florida it is true, yet has confined her operations to a line that must cripple the comtnsree of all our towns, including the city of Tallahassee, our squt of Government— merely to save four or five miles of distance end eight or ten minutes of time on a line of road 40U miles lung.

Gentlemen :—I this day received your commu nication of the 18th inst., and iu accordance with your request, inako au early, explicit aud I hope satisfactory reply; Our Eogiueer received uo instructions to make a survey in Florida. Ho wus directed to run a line to Humiltoti county. To avoid the OkefeuokeuSwauip, he ud vised that the line should be run to tbe north- western corner of thut county, and when uppotito the swamp a traverse line would detorniino whether wo could run a straight lino to a point iu Hamilton county, uaA of tho Alnpuha. Tho terminus of tho liuo, as run, is, I hnve been iufonned by Mr. Hol combe, tbreo miles west of the uorth-westerii corner of Hiiiuilton county. It is uot a fixed liuo, but mi ■".noriinental oue. Tho locution may be distant 10 20 miles from that liuo. A survey through a levol country, like that over which the ii^ie bus been run, C uts the Engineer in possession of all tbe necessary iiowledge of a very coasiderablc space on both sides of the liuo.—Swamps and Rivers alone fur nish obstacles, aud when they are reached, it is cus ternary to mako minute examination, for soino dis tance ubove aud bolotv the line. I liuvo received no report from our Engineer, but ii satisfied from wlint he said ttf me, in conversa tion ou this subject, that thore are no insurmount able engineering difficulties, ill entering your State by a more easterly lino than tboono which has been Afior running tho line to Hamilton county, Mr. Holcombe wua directed to run another from Bain- bridge, in Docatur county, to the Altamahu, but from a rccouuoisance mude of lliecountry, certain engi neering difficulties induced him to recommend a slight change of route, and whilst wuitiog instruc tions from me, having readied the Florida line, to ketp the party employed, he assumed the responsi bility of making the survoy altudod to in your let- tor. Tho survey reached the lake Mickasukoc, where it was stopped by Mr. Holcombe, uudor in structions from me, oxprossiye of uiy disapproba tive McGohnu, of your Slate, will give evi dence of my intentions ou this subject. Wheu asked by him whether 1 designed lo run a lino iu Florida, 1 answered in the negative, and gave him satisfacto ry reusons therefor. 1 hopo I have written onougli concerning tho sur vey to ulluy the fears that liuvo been nwukcued by the unfortunate employment of the corps in an us- ■MikeriteJ ieorlc. 1 will now proceed to state, that doTogaU's at til el aTe* tfo nV £ uWii" fn m rMlWMCJ}^ Shots in earnest in hor determination to build tho road with u duo regard to the interests of Florida, and is ardently desirous of co-operation in Florida, ud prepared to rcceivo it on Iho terras of a just nd lair reciprocity. She has no preferred route iu your Stale, because she is not sufficiently informed to determino that question, and she is not disposed to dictate one. Mr. Holcombe would, under my instructions, most cheerfully have complied with your request to run n Hue, had no received your application in time, but the corps are now well on tueir wuy to tho Allama- ha, and too fur to return. For four that tho line now being run, may give riso to suspicion iu Fioridaof tbo good fuilli of Savannah, I bog leuvo to state that if Florida does uot furnish the proper evidence of a cordial desire to co-ope- ram with Savannah by iiiakiur the promised sub scription, that liue, viz., to the Junction of the Flint and Chattahoochee, will probably he udoplnd. 1 liavo tho honor to be, most truly unu respect fully, your obedient serviuit, James P.

The Backwoodsman’s Fight with a Wolf. 4 W.,’ tho agroeablo correspondent of the Journal of Commerce communicates from 4 along the Krio Railroad' tho following sketch of s fight with a wolf, and how the backwoodsiuau told tho story: I was standing at the window, looking out at tho rushing river. Dark, wild and furious was the flow of (be torrent in the upper part of the basin, and the glassy pool which last evening reflected the mountains and the eky so clearly, waenow black and gloomy, and flecked with yoUow foam. One of tho ladies of our party stunding' noar ine was langhiug at a teninrk of Joe Willis's, while a group oflhreo or four wore discussing the preparation of some tableaux and charades. At the moment some person culled out to me for a story, to kill time while the charades worn iu process of preparation, ami as 1 turned to reply to the call, 1 caught sight of n woodman stunding outtido the door, and looking in on the group with open countouauce. He was a tsll, gaunt inau, at least six feet two in height, aud remarkably slender. He was lemiiug against the door-post, and his font wero a yard from it, so that ho leaned like a rail in a slauting posi tion, his sbouldor nguiust thn casing, as if h» meant either to hold it up or push it down. His long neck and head were inside the door, and Ills staro was expressive of vacant wonderment. But there was lifu iu his bluo eye, and a devil lurking there which you noticed tho moment-you •law him. It hud already attracted the aueiiliou of Miss , who sat alone ueur the window, looking steadily on the atrango faco that was so earnest iu its gaze. Tho instant I saw biiu 1 sprang forward : * Why Joo—Joe Willis—here is Smith. Smith, my dear follow, where did you comofrom! 1 thought you Was underground leu yenrs ago.’ * Not so bud as that, sir—glad to see you, though. How do you do, air—glad ouough to see you, *pon my word, sir. 1 declare, Mr. W , if I’d a’known you wus was up here, I’d a boon up lust night.— Queer times here now adays. Who’s ull those folks.’ 4 Friends of uiiue, Smith ; come in and I’ll intro duce you.* 1 Guess ! may ns well; queer too ; han’t spoke to a woman siuce 1 wus a boy; but here goes. Trot 'em out, now.' And my old friend stalked into the parlor an unstudied carolessless thut would have made ills fortuno in a city assembly room. * Ladies, my old friend, Joshua Smith ; 1 beg to presont him to your favorable notice. He used to bo tho best shot ou the river, the keenest hunter, tho best fouled fellow, and the truest frieud. I think I urn safo iu answoriug fur him uow as un changed.' 4 Why, Mr. W—, you aro presenting a perfect treasure,’ exclaimed Miss ——, running up and soi/.ing Joshua's hand kindly iiud cordially. But Joshua shook all ovor us the really beautiful girl (she will not see this) look his hand, and blushing from bis toes up to his crown, a regular six foot blush, Imckud fairly out of tho door. Be; Miss — was not to bo heutuo iu tliut wuy, uud by dint of bright eycc and winning wuys, she coaxed him into coruer, uud while tho rest relapsed into their for- ter employment*, she engaged him iu conversation. Ten minutes might have passed wheu a lull occur red, and Joe Willis took udvuntugo of it to liA his baud and impose silence, while ho pointed toward tho corner whero Joshua sut, with his back to us, talking at the black eyes of his captor. So we lis- *-“ed. And you see, Miss, 1 wa’nt going lo bn fooled how, (this wus tho first seuteuco we oaught,) d so 1 crawled along the stream to where you thn tall hemlock that leans over tho river. Just thore 1 hud seen a motion in the bushes, and I kind o' thought that the paiotor was iu there, but I wa’nt way 1 sueaked up among the bushes and looked into tbe cover, but 1 couldu't seo nothing, so I laid down flat, and dragged myself, snake-fashion, into tho hollow over thn other side there. You can sen a maple just above it. out there. Well, I hadn’t gone ten yards when I lieered a kind of a snarl and kind of a yowl, and there ho wus ; a grny wolf, HO or the regular (tort, with a young oue aloug side of her. Wasn't 1 sheared 1 1 reckon I was, some. I was skeered ull over ; but was worse iu my legs than anywhere else, for they wus cuught iu a bunch of brims, and 1 couldn't stir’em without scratching horrid bad. But it was scratch head or scratch legs then, 1 tell you ; and 1 left my trnwscr legs in the butlics, wheu 1 jumped ut her. She was a littlo too soon for me, though, mid I felt her teeth going through aud through the gristle about my elbow ; so, as you may suppose, I had only one arm left for much use, hut 1 was working tlrlndcring hard with that. I’d dropped my rifle at tho start, uud I had to trust to tho knife or nothing. 8o we wont ut it. 1 don’t know how I munnged the next two minutes. We rolled over and ovor on the ground, aud 1 never felt htr tooth, though bar claws nude snmo rags out ffwaTirml^Bm Iwus nigh giviug on it ui>. nnfi us knocking under and let her chaw me, when Mr. Willis and Mr. YV came toaring down through the bush, and I felt strong uguiu tho miuuto I seen them. It was u mighty closo shot, too, for I felt the wind of tho ball. 1 was lying ou tbit- side stretched out kind o' so, (and ho illustrutod here by a queer twist of his long body,) and 1 had the wolf by the throat with my right hand, und 1 was tryiug to got oil to him with my body, but ho was pulling and hauling like sin, und making tlio feathers fly out of at every scratch, when Mr. W shot, right ir my head. So wo scon ho wa’ut moro'n ten yards off, but it wus such a rough and tumble fight that ho hadn’t uo busioosa risking such u shot as that. What if he’d a hit mo then ? 'Twould u'blow- ed my brains out certain.' 4 But, Mr. Smith, if he had not shot tbe wolf, tlio wolf would have ‘chawed’ you.' • Chawed V That sounds kind o'queer. Don’t know us I ever hcerd u woman say 4 chaw' before. For ho didn’t hit tho wolf at all. Tbo bul let wont into ihe ground leu foot off'. ’Twunt the tiling, that shot, no how.’ but it wus, though, Joshua. For it scared the wolficu feet apart from eucli other, iu Die next second.’ 1 Oh, you're a listening, are you T Well, listen ers doirt bear no good of themselves. Scare m» and the wolf I Didn’t scare neither of ur. Too good pluck in us. We only backed off for breath and uuother round.' Likoly story I prtthavs you recollect your left i was iu a had fix, aud 1 think the wolf knew it; by the way she licked her lips, und worked at you fur about ten seconds ; and your knife, old fellow- how happened your ituifo-ilown iu the hollow, two roils offr I’d throwd the knife away for a fair fight: yot>, I had. My blood was up, aud 1 was ’ ‘Come, conic, Joshua, my hoy, if dm next hall had not bothered the wolf, and Joe Willis's knife nnd good stout arm taken the fight off your hands, I'd like to know what chance you think there would have been that you would bless your eyoa to-day with looking at thn faco of Alls* , oh, Joshua ?' ‘ Wall/ suid Joshua, strctchiug his long legs his heels, buried iu tho carpet, seemed half ' across the room, und looking around at mo wi piizzical expression, 4 Wail—1 don't know. 8ome things are blessiugs to some folks that ain’t bless- iugs to otliers. 4 ' Why, Mr. Smith I’ exclaimed tbe lady. 4 No offcuco, ma’am. It does me good to look at you; 1 haiu't seen sich sence—senee— do you know now—1 had my bringing up down East. 1 only came out here when 1 was about two-thirds growed.

So I finished his histoiy. 4 Willis and myself were just In time. Smith was fighting well, but the wolf had Lurt bis arm, and in his eagerness for u choking grasp, he had forgotlon *~ hold his knife, dropped it, aud they had rolled r out of reach 6f it. 1 think u half a second would have ssttlod Joshua. So 1 shot, intending only to frigliteu the wolf from tlio deliberate mouth ful in Joshuu’a shoulder which seemed inevitable, and it effected the purpose. Thoy separated for au instant, und 1 gave her the second bull inside the shoulder, hoping to reach the heart. It was a littlo out of the way; too close for good aim. But tho ball did scrvico, nnd disabled oue leg. Then Willis was ou her with his kuile before sho had recovered from the stunning effect of the bullet, and Joe had always a knuck of putting a knife io tho right place. ‘Joshua didn’t use his left nrm for a week or two after that. How loug was It, Joshua t* ‘Six mouths,’ gunned Smith. A few M|innlsh Facts, Like a camp follower, Spain lugs fjoiiind the march of progress, yet is on tbe march. From a German work on the present condition of tbo Pcu- iuaula, we guther n few interesting facts. No census lias been taken of the 8paui»h popula tion since 1788. Then, tho population was ten and a half millions ; now it is computed by our author to «e about thirteen millions—seventy to the square mile. Of this number, ona million two hundred and twenty one thousand cut read aud write ; six hun dred tliousuud more can read, but oot write—“ a low proportion, which the government is now try lug to raise." There are leu uuivertilies in Spaiu, ten normal schools, twenty-eight normal elementary schools, seventeen thousand boys’ schools, fivo thou sand girls’schools, two hundred aud ninety-seveu iufani schools ; aud tbe whole uuiuber of pupils in all of these is eight hundred aud sixty-nine thou sand. The system of education is founded on that of the French.

In 1850, there were thirty-two thousand eix hun dred persons in the Spanish prisons and galleys, of whom nearly throe thousand were women. The prisons arc generally not well conducted; hut there are a few which are worthy to be model establish- incuts, ow ing to the humane exertions, of a Spanish Howard, by the name of Montesinos. Ouo great obstacle to improvement in Spain, is the diversity of tho local customs, and the jrndous tenacity with which the people cling to thorn. For example, the government has for some time been endeavoriug to make the weights and measures uuiforu throughout lha couutry i but so far, with Utilo sueoess. The Museum of Art uud MauufHcture. at Madrid con- luius specimens of all the measures used in the va rious districts i jars, cuus, bottles, canisters, pip kins with long necks aud frith short, slender and uot-bellied, great and small. In some places, there is no fixed measures at ail i and in gauging quanti ties they go by iho advico* Of export farmers, or by rough estimates. Tho measures for wheat aro of overy kind of shape; not only do tboso in the town differ front those in tbo country, hut also iu some communes os many as two or three dissimilar wheat measures are used indiscriminately. Many families possess peculiar measures of their own, which pass current with the rest In sales aud purchases iu open market. And to all tbeso measures, the people per sist in adhering. The army or Spain consists of ouo hundred nnd one tliousuud men, aud the annual expouse of main mining it is little moro than five millions of do!, lara—fifty dollars n limn. The navy consists of about sixty vessels, of which twenty-two are steam ers. Thu industry of the nation is “ protected" by a high tariff, nnd consequently it is “visibly impro ving;" yet Spain does uot yet produce moro than one-third of tho manufactured articles required for hor annual consumption. The pressing wants of Spain are good roads, canals for trnflla and irri, gallon, aud tbe removal of obstructions from the beds of rivers. The mountainous surface of tho couutry, places an obstacle iu tho way of an ox- teusive railway system, which will nrohably remain long insurpcable. A vust emigration of Spaniards to Algeria haa been going on fur some time, l’poll tlio whole, as wo nKve hinted above, Spain is slowly waking up fVoin the lethargy of conturics, aud may be expected to urriyo at thn Good Time Coming, some tirao after the rest of tho world has become use to it. natbloR, Its uso nnd nbnse The seasou having now arrived wheu “ tho glassy, eool, translucent wave” invites us to lake a dip, a few bints to tbe inexporlen«e4 bather may he service able. Tbe manucr of bathing (say# Sir Arthur Clurkc), though n point of, tho first iinporlunco, seems by most pooplu to be thought of uo conse quence at all; but, let the offset of bathing bo con sidered, and this indifference will appeur in a strong light. By the compression of tho wliolo external surface of tbe body, which takes place on judicious immersion, the blood is carried on with increased force to the heart, and returned by thn reaction with proportional impulse. By this mcreasedaction and velocity the capillaries nre oponod, iho sluggish and tenacious humors loosened, aud the whole system is invigorated ; but all this depends upon total and instant immersion. To suppose that stepping iuto a bath, or wolting- the body by parts, will produce those effects, is an absurdity. Everything beyond a single pi«:n*r is preventive of benofit. By continu ing in tlio bulb the body is robbed of its natu:al heat, reaction prevented ; the vessels collapse, ami transpiration by tho natural chaauel of iho pores is suspended ; obstructions aro confirmed aud para lysis is frequently induced. To leap from a height into tho water is injurious. Au easy and nearly horizontal position is tho best for the moment of immersion ; and tho proper time for bathing is when the natural iucmiuliou Ij the strongest; and this, generally spoaking, will be after considerable exercise, but short of producing smieiblo perspira tion or fatigue. Nothing cau bo tnoro injurious than lingering on the margin of the flood till Ihe sluguatiiig fluids refuse to obey even iho spur of im mersion, The bath should be used only onco every day. With regard lo the exercise of swimming, it should be of modciaio duration ; when long continu ed, it has in uumhcrless instances, occasioned the loss of the use of limbs, nnd not uufrcqueuily proved fatal. Sir Arthur Clarke sooms conscious of tread ing on slippery ground when he advisos tho iadics to dispense with dresses while bathing. All incum- beriug dross, lie auys, not only injures tho primary influexce, but, by clinging to the person, checks the glow which should bo felt on comiug out of the hath, aud iu weak constitutions often totally prevents it. Bees at War. Ezra Dibble, a well-known citizen of this town, and for many yeara extensively engaged in the management of bcea, communicates to us the following interesting particulars of a battle among his bees : Ho lias seventy swarms of bees, about iquaUy divided oil tlio east and west sides oi his house. Ou Sunday, Aug. 14, about three o'clock, the weather being warm, nnd the win dows open, his house was suddenly filled with bees, which forced the family to flee at once to the neighbors. Mr. D. niter getting well pro tected against his assailants, proceeded to take a survey, and, if possible, learn the cause which had disturbed them. Tho seventy swarms appeared to ho put, and those on one side of tlio house wcio arrayed in battle against those ou the other side; nnd such a bat tle was perhaps nover before witnessed.— They filled the air, cover}ng tho spaco of moro tliai^one acre of ground, and fought desperately bulfor conquest; and while at war no living thing could exist in the vicinity. They stunc 3 large flock ol Shanghai chickens, iKurly all of which died, and persons passing along the roadside w. ro obliged to make haste to avoid their sting. A little alter six o'clock quiet was restored, and the living bees returned to thoir hives, leaving the slain almost literally covering the ground, since which but few have appeared around the hives, and thoseapparent- ly stationed as seutinels to watch iho enemy. But two young swarms wore entirely destroy ed, and aside from tho terrible slaughter of bees no other injury was done. Neither party was victorious, und they only ceased on the approach of night, and from utter prostration. The occasion of this strange warring among tho hoes is not eusily accounted for ; and those most conversant with their management never before witnessed or heard of such a spectacle as here narrated.—Conneaulf Ohio) Reporter.
