In lint rnnfiirt of public opinion, in regard to extending
credit of the State to incorporated companies, or to
. w enterprise at all, we can only assuredly speak of
the ascertained public will, in regard to the prosecution of
^Stntc Ibmd, on the State's account. In reference to
,|,i. we believe there is no clashing of sentiment; the
people of (icorgia, we believe, are as nearly unanimous on
i)ii, subject, as it is possible to lie on nny subject. Tbe
onb question therefore seems to be, tbe diiection which
tl,o toad shall be continued, and the point ut whicA; it shall
terminate.
It seems to us that the voice of the country will he found
l )( , t j mt pic road shall he continued as centrally through
the State as practicable, to terminate at a point which
will offer to the trade of the Road, the amplest choice of
markets ; having at the same time always in view, the
throwing as much of that trade into our own towns as p«s-
lilde. Perhaps these desirable results will be found to be
|i#st attainable, by bringing the Rond directly through the
Stato, from its present terminus, to the Scat of Govern
ment. Be this course, a choice of markets will he offered
the trade of the road, unsurpassed. The road would he
joined at some point of its route by the Georgia Railroad
Compnnv, thus affording an easy, cheap and expeditious
route to Augusta, tho Savannah river, and to Charleston.
The Central road would join jt at its terminus—thus af
fording; an equally easy uceess fo Macon, on the one hand,
and to Savannah, on the other. What more could lie de
ntil to advance the wealth and convenience of our people,
limn this, wc cannot imngino.
fo terminate the road ut Maeon, would he adding an
o»neee«s«ry distance of some forty miles to our seaport,
nnd making an entirely unnecessary roundabout and ex-
pt-nsr. n» it seems to us, without purpose ; ns by the route
indicated, she would he able to command her proper
.bare nf the trade of the road—and this, we presume, is
nil that die ran demand. Besides, if this roundabout way
aorr adapted, the greater nearness to Augusta and Charles
ton, In the Georgia Railroad, which would join the State
Road would, to a moral certainty, exclude our own sea
port from most of the trade brought into our Suite by it;
•i ii would, under such circumstances, to a dead certainty go
to Charleston, it being unreasonable to suppose that trade
wifi go a roundabout way to seek a market, w hen as good a
one can I* found by a shorter, and consequently, cheaper
route.
The distance from the seat of Govcrnm a? to the present
terminus of the Stale Road, is something over 80 miles,
end we are informed by the most competent authority,
that the route is so favorable in n local point of view, that
ll could and would be built at least fifty per cent, less
thsnthe work already under way. Indeed the State Road,
U it* present termination, lias from tbe arduous nature of
the ground rust so much, that w ithout its extension over a
mure favorable and less expensive distance, it can never
1* piohlnble to the Stole. The temainder of the rood will
I* built at fifty per cent, less, and lie altogether tbe most
profitable end of the road; moreover the same locomo
tives, mid all the other apparatus of transportation can
and will with only the expenses of fuel, servo a. well for
tho whole route, as for the half.
Bv this route, the whole interior of Georgia will bo
twilight within a dnv or two of our own seaports, meeting
with their produce, this great road at every point ; it will
double nur wealth, and more than double out comforts; and
> 'other public objects sinks into comparative unimportance,
when compared with this great enterprise. YY’e do not
(ear that the State will be lacking, in this mnttci, to her
own heitinterests.
We have thrown out these hasty icmnrks.as about ns i»-
tcrcutiiig a subject of converse w ith our renders as we
rslid think of; and wc believe tbe more they ore reflect-
''I on. the more sound and reasonable will they be found.
W« confidently leave the subject with those who w ill have
tiictoo it.
Gren. Taylor, with two companies of Dra
goons from Tampa Bay, passed through this
city on Tuesday last, on his way to Chatta
hoochee. The General had with him, a Chief
of the 1 allahassee’s, the son of Neamathla,
and his negro interpreter. His object, we
learn, is to endeavor to find the fugitive
Creeks and induce them to emigrate, as well
as to aid in the remov; ] of the Apalachicola's.
\\ e understand the Tallahassee’s and Micco-
snkies have of late shown some disposition to
he friendly—several of their head men have
been in at Tampa and signified their determi
nation to collect their people, and emigrate to
the West. General Taylor is, however, mak
ing active preparations for a winter campaign.
He at least hopes to induce the Indians to re
move east of the Suwannee, and thus give
peace and quiet to the frontier settlers. The
Indians, General Taylor informs us, are not
embodied, neither is it believed they will he
again found in any considerable numbers.
[Tallahassee Floridian, Oct. 13.
Land Sales.—We believe all those who
feel an interest in the prosperity of Louisiana,
were not a little rejoiced when the President’s
proclamation announced that the public lands
were about to he brought to the hammer, after
a delay which had exceeded the average du-
tation of human life. This joy, however,
received a damper, when we received the ad
vertisement of postponement from the general
land office. Upon inquiry we find that the
reason for delaying the sale is found in a claim
which the heirs of Bernard d’Hauterive have
presented for five hundred thousand acres of
land, principally in the parish of Iberville, and
extending from the Mississippi to the Atclia-
f’alaya, and along both sides of the latter river.
There are about twenty townships entirely,
and nine more partly covered by the preten
sions of d’Hauterive’s heirs.
Verily this is the era for reviving old pre
tensions, and it would not greatly surprise us,
should some one or other claim the whole pub
lic domain.
If the d’llauterive’s succeed, they will be
come immensely rich, for the lands in question
are among the richest in the State, fit for the
sugar cane, and worth, perhaps, five millions
of dollars.—N. O. Courier.
The Cherokee Indians, in their late negotia
tion with tbe Government, made a particular
and earnest request that they might be paid,
not in specie ot Treasury notes, but in the pa
per of the United States Bank of Pennsylva
nia. In compliance with the request, the ad
ministration is now actually paying them the
notes of that institution. Who will not say
that an Indian is smarter than a locofoco.
[Lovisrtlle Journal.
Fires.—A fire occurred at Staunton, Vir
ginia, on the 4th instant, which burnt six
houses, three shops, six stables, and seventeen
horses.
The stables attached to the United States
Hotel in Greenfield, Indiana, with twenty-
one horses, have also recently been-destroyed
by fire.
In Taunton, Mass., a large number of the
finest buildings on the square have been con
sumed. Taunton is said to l»e one. of the
most beautiful villages in the world.
A Goon Hit.—A capital anecdote was re
lated to us yesterday. One of our Cincinnati
belles, a beauty of the first water, was recent
ly at Saratoga, and attracted much attention.
Among strangers there was considerable
speculation about the fair lady’s identity, &:c.
A new corner, one day, observing the number
of dandys dangling about her, and following
in her wake, inquired who she was. “ That is
the Great. Western.” “ Is it I I presumed as
much, from the number of flats she has in
tow.”—Cincinnati News.
MARRIED
Near Rockville, in Putnam rounty, on the Ulh inst., by
YVra. Turner, Esq., .Mr. Wilt Bagi.y, to Miss Winston

Died outhie 5th inst., at Murfreesboro, Tennessee, Mrs.
Eliza Jones Dickinson, wife of David W. Dickinson,
of that Stale. It would be a vain attempt to depict the
anguish which this dafk dispensation of Providence bus
rust upon the relatives ;lnd friends of this lovely and inter
esting woman. In the spring-tide of life, abounding in
the blessing* of earth, suriounded by a wide circle w ho
devotedly loved her, she has been c alled away, and has
gone to her place amid the society of the redeemed. 11.
to thosc> who weep her loss, there ran he any alleviation in
the bitter cup of their sorrow, any mitigation of the blow
under which they are bowed down, it is in the assured
knowled.e. that ours alone is the loss ; for to her “ to tlie
was gain;” she has only relinquished earth for heaven,
that “ mortality might be swallowed up of life.” Her I
confiding trust in the Savior, to whom she had earlv de- ,
voted herself, was snstained with unabated constancy !
through the valley of the shadow of death.” and she feared j
no evil, for he was with her and enmfintrd her;” and with
her expiriig breath she claimed him as her Shepherd tied
her Lord. Tints passed away one of the purest spirits ot
earth, and Heaven has gained another shining one, to bow
before the throne and a lure the Lamb forever.

Cherokee Lands.—Major C. L. Hinton,
one of the Commissioners to sell the Cherokee
Flax prepared by Machinery.—An in
vention has recently been marie which bids
fair in course of time to effect a revolution
equal to that accomplished by the invention of
the Cotton Gin. It has been put into practi
cal operation, and produces flax of a fineness
that is capable of being converted into cloth
of any texture by the same process as cotton.
Experiment has shown that linen cloth now
selling in our markets for GO cts., may he pro
duced at a cost of only 25 cts. We have seen
a sample of the flax which in fineness and the
disposition of its fibres resemble cotton, while
it preserves the strength ami lustre of flax.

The London Qurteriy Review, in an able

lates the following amusing anecdote: The
commander of a Russian Exploring Expedi
tion, cruising in the Atlantic ocean, came
across to a remote, and as he thought, hereto
fore undiscovered island, of which he was
about to take possession in the name of the
Czar, when lo ! he was met by a sharp built
little sloop of sixty tons, which hailed him to
ash if he wished, for a pilot ! It was a Connec
ticut skipper, who had cruised off that way to
“ seek his fortune.” He-now commands one
of the most splendid of the New-York liners.

Inconsistency.—The Van Buren party,
wherever they have possessed a control over
Banks, have been bank men ; and yet they
have been bitter and unsparing in their de
nunciation of Banks. Their course in Mis
souri proves this. There they have created a
bank, which is in every sense of the word a
monopoly. No other bank can he created
in the .State by the Legislature while this ex
ists. Tire hank and the State then are link
ed together; the directors are chosen by the
Legislature, and the present Van Buren direc
tors are now striving for seats in the body

their places ! Recollect, this is Benton’s own

The present Van Buren candidate for Gov

party to call himself a Democrat of ’9S, to
which he responded thus : [Rich. Whig.
“ If I were to say I was a democrat of ’9S,
to the charge of deceit against me woujd he
superadded that of inconsistency' against our

but few criminal presentments to make
j f here is, however, one inure subject of vital importance
to this community, which we feel unwilling to pass uiino-
riet.-l—we allude to the improper latitude given bv the
owners and holders of slaves; we feci on this subject more
particularly at this time, in consequence of the vile slanders
that are lavished upon tlie slave-holding States by the
northern abolitionist and fanatics—and while, we believe,
we have more humane and benevolent feplings towards
our slaves, than they have either for them or ns, \oi we
believe it would be more conducive to the interest and
happiness ot both master and slave, to enforce more rigid
disHfiline, and keep them from rambling through the
cno ttrv. and often collecting in unlawful assemblies.
It is with feelings of mortification we have to notice tlie
recent assemblage of a large number of slaves in or.r
county, in a riotous tumultuous and dismderiv manner,
headed and protected by three white men, to wit: Philip
f rotter, John Fielding, and Joseph YY". Curetnn, in such a
manner ns seriously to endanger the public peace and
quiet of our citizens; and we are only prevented from dis
charging our further duties as Gr md Jurors, in directing
theoflendets to he indicted, by the consideration 'hat two
of them have fled the country. So we can, under the cir
cilinstances, only regret the existence of that featuie in
onr criminal code, which prohibits the trial of a single
rioter by himself, and we cannot close the consideration of
this subject, hut by recommending o ir next Legislature to

not at all abash him. He immediately betook
himself to the stump for the vindication of his
character. “ l did appropriate tlie money to

Land at 50 cents per acre.—It may not
be uninteresting to some of our readers to be
apprised, that the reduction of a portion of the
refuse Chickasaw lands, to fifty cents per acre,
took place under the graduation principle, on
the 1st September instant. Heretofore the
minimum price at which they were subject to
entry, was one dollar per acre. These lands,
although not the best in the country, have, ne
vertheless, among them many fine spots suita
ble for cultivation, and would make very com
fortable farms for small families.

To the Editors of the Recorder:
Gentlemen—In the. belief that the members of the
House of Representatives, of the approaching Legislature,
will desire to hnve at their head, a man of ability, of char
acter and conduct, who will place more valuo upon ihe
reputation of the party than upon the office, I take the Hb-
erty of suggesting to onr State Rights friends, the name of
George YV. Crawford, of Richmond, as a man emi
nently qualified to fill the Speaker’s Chair. This sugges
tion is made without the knowledge of this gentleman, or
•f his personal friends. It is made, in the btdief, that the
party has the right to command the talents of its gifted
members, and because it is not believed that Mr. Crawford
is a man to seek the office. True merit is said to be al
ways modest. In the present instance it is believed to be
so. It is at least certain that this gentleman has not here
tofore made himself an exception to this rule; and those
who have observed his public course, have no apprehension
that he ever will. A LOOKER ON.
T S NOW receiving a supply of articles in his line, care
fully selected, and warranted to be of the best quality.
He offers them for sale in tlie confidence that they cannot be
surpassed in this market; a few of the leading articles are
enumerated : Betrars. Cogniac Brandy, Chatnpaigne Brandy.
Jamaica Ruin, Holland Gin, Monnngahela Whiskey, Peach

and Port Wine, Cheese, Cordials, Crackers, Spertn and Tal
low Candles, Table Salt, a variety of Preserves, Pickles,
Snuff, Playing Cards, a variety of Candles, Sweet Oil, Spirits
of Turpentine. Almonds, Olives, Capers, Catsup, Gunpowder
Tea,Smoking and Chewing Tobacco, Figs, Nutmegs, Lemons,

Also, 20 boxes and half boxes of Itaisius, of tlie new crop, all
