The Charleston paper* of lute have teemed
with communications in reference to tho Rail
llnad interests of that city. All of them exhibit
that grasping spirit which seeks to concentrate
“the 1.1on’s share” of tho trade and wealth of
tho South in tho sea-port of Carolina. What
signify such expressions ns the following from
the Courier of the 19th Inst.: “We feel no jeal
ousy in the city of Savannah. Wo desire her
prosperity in common with all that awaits us,”
when in such reports ns that of Col. Gudsdun to
the Knoxville convention, in the very communi
cation* with which it* own columns are full, in
tho correspondence of Charleston inns with the
papers of the North, in sliurt in every act that is
done, ovory word that is uttered, every scutcuco
that is written, the *hallowcst intellect can per-
coive that Charleston i* tho Alpha and Omega in
the thought*, affections, and design* of her citi
zen* ! We aro not disposed to find fault with
this controlling davotiou. Col. Gadsden speaks
in hi* letter to us of the natural love which he
feels for tho city of hi* birth, and imputes the
same to us. We do not deny the charge. We
do fuel a deep duvotion to Savannah, an absorb
ing interest iu her welfare, and thcro is nothing
honorable which we should hesitate to do in or
der to promote her growth and prosperity. But
there is a limit beyond which we should scarcely
venture to go, even in the advocacy of tho inter
ests of Savannah; a limit where her rights cease,
and beyond which to press unreasonable claims
would bo intrusive ami insulting iu a high de
gree.
Wc have frequently mentioned the fact that
tho Charlestonians are iu tho habit of speaking
of tho Georgia and .State Rail Ronds ns their
lino of columnnientinn with tho West. So
deeply impressed 1* this idea upon their minds,
that at times thuy seem to forget tho name of the
former. A correspondent of the Courier says—
“ I mn quite aware that there is a gap in the Geor
gia rail road line, at Macon”—and tho article of
which this sentence is the commencement, conclu
sively shows that the writer has been iu the habit
of regarding the gap at Augusta, as a gap i» the
South Carolina Bailroad Line. The object of nil of
the communication* of which wo have spoken iu
tho Charleston pnpeis, seem* to be lo fill up this
gap, mid to make the lim complete. The inter
est* of Augusta, us a matter of course, are oppos
ed to the connection of the Georgia and Charles
ton Roads. To effect that junction is to stab that
nourishing city to the heart! But what earn these
Carolina patriots for tho intercut* of Augusta, or
of Georgia, or of any other Statu or city, if they
should clusli, in the smallest particular, with the
ambitious views and prospect* of the city of
Charleston and the State of South Carolina 1—
They have udnpiod of late a ntyle of bravado well
calculated to excite tho indignation of every Geor
gian who reflect* upon it. No effort is to he
spared, no stone is to bo loft unturned, the South
Carolina Legislature i* to bo uppealed to, nay
tho Georgia Legislature i* likewise to be made
tiso of, in order to force tho penplo of Augusta
to submit to a measure which must blight her
prospect* forever! The Georgia Rail Road
is threatened with a rival, even more Carolinian
than it is presumed to have been. A desperate
effort is made to amuse its jealousy; upon the
ground, wo suppose, that it* director* aro not ns
anxious to uuito with tho Charleston Rail Road
a*iheir allegiance would seem to require.
“It therefore behoove* the citizens of this State,
of every class and condition, to concentrate their
means and energies iu one common eft’ort.unUing
and pulling together, to open an iron higliwav

.Messrs. Editors, this desideratum is, under the
existing stute of things, utterly uuuttuiuublc by
auy measures wo might suggest, or aid wo
might contribute fo advance tho construction
of Rad Roads connecting with tho Georgia Rail
Road. On tho contrary, every dollar loaned or
subscribed to effect Hitch connection is a boon to
Savannah, deeply prejudicial to the business of
Charleston, unless the interdict which exist* at
Augusta by the enormous exactions, levied iu tho
shape of bridge toll and license of all vehicles, to
couvuy property from the terminus of tho Geor
gia Rail Road to that uf tins 8011th Carolina Rail
Road, is removed.”
Charleston cau bo satisfied with nothing less
than a road of her own, “Hands off!” she ex-
chum* to t!io-corporation of Augusta and the
Legislature of Georgia. Wo defy you to deny
us ought that wo ask! Wo spurn your control,
your interference, tho cxcrciso of your taxing
power iu any shape or form uuupproved of by us!
Ifyou venture to act for yourselves, mark it! wo
“ the citizens of this Suite,” wo, Carolinians, will
run « road of oar own ! Look to the great West!
Do you not see that wo hold tho whole of it in

Had sho been told, or realized that ft more for

Unless deceived by report* like that of Col.
Gadsden “tho subscribers iu Tennessee” and "the
City of Nasbvillo” must have known that tho Geor
gia wn* not the Carolina Rail Rond, and that the
former terminated at the city of Augusta. They
would Iikuwi*c have known that Charleston was
not tho only seaport iu tho Universe; and that
their product* could find a market moro speedily
and cheaply by tho contctnplutcd railwuys to tho
cotnmerciul emporium of Georgia.
In conclusion lotus listen to the order of Wea
sel at the closo of his bombastic dissertation.
“Let then the city authorities of Charleston and
Atmustu, and the Rail-Road Board, meet, confer
and decide irrevocably the conditions and terms,
on which Upper Georgia, Nashvillo and Tennes

indignantly spurn from them this outrageous ap
proach of Caruliitii arrogunoo, nud wo believe that
the patriotic people of “upper Georgia” will see
their true interest* in opposing a measure so full

Tho intelligent (Commercial) Correspondent
ofthc Washington Union, write* from New York,
(Nov.l7th.)—“TheCaledouia which sailed yester
day, carried $1302,542111 specie, making fully $1,-
090,000 whipped from here and Boston *iuco tho
return uf the bank* was made up. It is curious
tlmt the $20,000,000 specie drawn by the indepen
dent treasury since January 1st, should have laid
less effect than $1,000,000 exported. Under the
former demand, the banks expanded rapidly; un
der tho latter, they “snug ship” withull expe
dition. This export of Hpccie is artificial, aud
results from what, a few year* since, would have
been laughed at its an improbable chimera—viz:
the ruin of British credit. Not only in New
York, butinovory.city of Europe and the world,
a Loudon bill would once have commanded cap
ital of any magnitude or description, Now, thcro
i* no merchant hut hesitate* to trust a British firm.
A large margin in price does not tempt him ; but
ho buys hi* bag of gold aiul ship* it in discharge
of hi* debt*. The general effect of this is not to
onlmuce specie in England, because the bill* tliut
are not bought must nevertheless be paid, unless
universal dishonor indeed overtake*them. Being
paid, the gold will return iu perhaps tho vessel
that curried it out. Tho bills of such bouses as
Brown Brothers, ortho Bank of Montreal, cannot
find discount in Engluud: ami produce is worse
than thrown away us a remittance by ativ, except
those of regular correspondent*.”

“Thcro wero considerable sales of Treasury Notes
this morning, which opened 99J, and closo nt^

paper in noticing the remittance* in specie, con
sequent upon tho position of the bill market, re
marks:—“Beside* these shipments, both the
Havre aud Loudon puckct*, that close to-day, will
take a considerable sum. It is believed by those
interested iu the trade tlmt tho arrival of so much
Hpccie on the other side from this country, will
have a very favorable iflttciicu on the intercourse

to defeat it—hut this morning a motion to recon

iu regurd to its ultimate fate.
An attempt was also made this* morning to re
consider the Whitney Resolution*; but received
a Sacramento defeat. I cannot see any harm iu
these resolutions. Tho action of Congress will
bo independent of their influence, and will be
bused upon estimates and considerations of which
nothing is known here at present.
Yours respectfully, AMANUENSIS.
MILLEDGEVILLE, Nov. 20,1817, (nt night.)
Gentlemen—Since mailing my letter to you
of this forenoon, I have obtained sight of the Sen
ate’s Journal of thi* morning, and now hasten to
givo you what of interest it comprises.
Mr. Marks reported u bill to authorize the Mus
cogee Rail Roud Company, to issue bonds, and
to authorize tho 3Iaconand Western and Atlautic
Rail Rond Company to indorse the same.
Mr. Hunter—To nuthorizo the Justices of tho
Inferior Court* to issue executions against de
faulting tax payer* in certain cases.
Mr. Willamson, from the Committee oa the
Stote of tho Ropublic, reported a bill consenting
to the purchase of land by the United State* on
Cumberland Sound, and ceding jurisdiction over
tho same.
Mr. Terrell, from the Committee on Internal
Improvement, made n report on tho Western and
down with despondency. Service* like those
should not he forgotten iu the clay of prosperity,
when the State is possessed of abundant re
source*. Besides, let it bo remembered, that it is
not a donation that is asked for—it is a simple re
quest to pay a just debt—and umotiuts to a de
mand thut might properly hu put in term* like
those—“when you wero poor and needy and
your cuoiuie* pressing hard upon you, I came
to your assistance—I furnished you mean*,—I
cl»tl«i>r1 ^-unr* ihiI(p>Iih>uu—1 f#*i| your hunger—-I
put arms of defence into your hands: and after
you had driven your foe* away,you acknowledged
your obligations to me, but pleaded your exhaust
ed state, uud i extended the time of payment
from poverty you have risen to wealth aud gran
deur; I again ask you for payment—with your
hand* full, will you send me away empty ?" For
thu life of me I cannot see any answer but prompt,
immediate payment, tlmt cun be made to such a
statement—nor do I understand the morality thut
should refuse compliance.
I hope the present Legislature will cud ibis dis
graceful contest between u supplicating creditor
and a prerogatived debtor, aud puy this money,
which i* justly duo; thu* digitalizing tho session
of 1847, by tho performance of an houorublo act,
too long delayed.
The Joint Committee on the Penitentiary are
engaged iu examining tho affairs of thut Institu
tion. Tho Committee, under the law of 1845,
appointed to tako thu account of materials on
hand, aud asses* it* value, have made their report,
from which it appears that thu materials on
hand exceed by some six or seven thousand dol
lars those reported by tho Principal Keeper, Col.
Redding,—in consequence, showing thu condi
tion of the Institution to he, to tlmt extout, iu a
more prosperous condition than is even described
iu tho report of that officer.
There is one thing tho Legislature should do
before adjourning, and tlmt is, to iucroasu the pay
of the Otllccr*. It i* impossible to retain cllici-
ciont mechanics to superintend tho convicts at the
pitiful rate of four huudrod dollars per anuutu.
More liberal wages would sccuro a continuance
of the best workmen; nud ill the end it will he
found a wise economy. When properly execu
ted thu fabric* of tho institution will bo in demand,
and enu bo sold nearly us fast as made—not sub
ject to deteriorate by being kept a long time, uud
then sold at less than the cost of the raw materi
als. However, these matter* are now being
brought to tho consideration of tho Constitution
al Visiters, and their opinions will perhaps bo
authoritative. Respectfully yours,
AMANUENSIS.
Commodore II. F. Stockton hits arrived at Phi
ladelphia. The Pennsylvanian remarks:
“Hosts of warm friends will welcome this gal
lant seaman-soldier to his home. During hi* ub-
seuco ill California, bo has been tho hero of sever
al remarkable and brilliant engagements. A bra
ver man, n warmer, truer friend, or a moro capti
vating companion, docs not live. We believe the
gallant Commodore is now with bis family in thi*
city.”
The dispute between Commodore Stockton
and Gou. Kearney, who have both done eminent
service, is much to bo regretted, and from publi
cations in tho papers, wc uppreheud that the acer
bity of feeling provoked thereby, wifi rather bo
increased than diminished by a public investiga
tion. The Commodore will booh deliver hi* tes

Further Important News from Santa Ft*.
FIGHTS WITH THE INDIANS.
Cincinnati, Nov. 10—12 oclock.
There ha* been another urrivul at St. Louis
from Santa F««, by which the papers of that city
aro placed in possession of further important ami
interesting new* from thut quarter.
Mr. Coons, of that city, Mr. Wetherod, of Balti
more, and Mr. Austin, of Dayton, arrived in St.
Louis on 12th. Mr. Wotlicred left Santa Foon
tho 8th of October, and Mr. Coons on the 18th
of tho Maine month. Tho latter gentleman tra
velled alone until lie rcachod the mouth of the Ar
kansas river, where he fell in with a train, und
soon after overtook .Mr. Wetherod crossing the
Middle Arkansas. Mr. Wotlicred’* party had
with them the Express Mail—the whole party
being under the charge of Capt. Turner und
Liout. Roger*.
As nineteen men belonging lo Mr. Wetherod’*
party were about crossing thu Arkansas river at
night, they were suddenly attacked by a party of
Pawueo Indians, who were evidently limit on
plunder. A pretty wurm engagement ensued,
but the Indian* soon broke, uud llud before the
well directed tiro of the rifles from Mr. W's men,
leaving niiu of their tribe dead on the ground. By
the murk* of blond on tho ground it suomod cer
tain tlmt they had been severely dealt with, as sev
eral more of them must have either boon killed or
badly wouiided. The Indians did not succeed iu
driving oil' auy of the live stock. None of Mr.
W.’s men were harmed by the attack.
On the next night, about twenty-five miles from
the place where they had been attacked, Mr. W.’s
parly again encountered tho Indians. They
scorned determined to have revenge for their late
defeats, aud made a vigorous and infuriated at
tack on the party, firing a shower of halls aud ar
row* into their camp, ny which one limn was
slightly wounded iu the urm, uud uuothcr struck
by uu arrow iu the leg.
_ Mr. W.’s party soon rallied, and poured a well-
directed lire into tho Indians, which scattered
them iu alt direction*, aud they were not molested
by them again that night.
The Iimiaus, on this occasion, did not show any
disposition to drive oil* the stock, hut seemed to
bo uctouted altogether, iu making the attack, out
of ruvongu for the loss of some of their tribe iu
the first attack.
On the following day the pm 17 fj'l in with the
command of Col Gilpin, at Wuhmt Creek, eighty
mile* from the first main force, They wero pro
gressing very slowly, owing to the want of forage
lor their cattle. There was a great scarcity of
grass on the plain*. For miles on the prairies, as
tar ns the eyu could rcr.ch,thoy presented a burnt
ami dosulalu appearance. Fires were seen every
night on the ha *s of the Ciiueroue river, which
presented a scene of awful grandeur.
Mr. Conussav* they were visited by very heavy
smnv storms, which greatly impeded their pro
gress. He think* that there must lie inilcli sutler-
ing among the emigrants and others travelling
that way at this droml season of the year. Many
men and teams must- actually perish for want of
food uud shelter, for, says lie, the country present*
a must barren and desolate appearance, there not
huiug a vestige of grass or a human habitation to
be met with sometimes for hundreds of miles—
and so severe and sudden are tile snow storms,
that it is impossible to oseape them.
Mr. Coon* made flic trip across the plains iu (be
short time of seventeen days, which is a remarka
bly short trip, when it is taken into consideration
tlio had weather hu cucuuuteticd. The day after
Mr. Coons left, a mail for the United Status, with
an escortjwas to leave Santa Fo. Cant. Korpouy,
of tho Missouri regiment, Capt. Hook, of tlio
Illinois regiment, aud Lieut. "Weightman, of Co).
Easton’s command, wore to accompany the mail
tfaiu. These officers come home forthe purpose
of recruiting for their respective companies.
There wero a number of reports in circulation'
iu regard to the assembling uf hostile forces at
Chihuahua aud El Passo—but nothing in ail of
ficial form had reached Santa Fo, from those
places, up to the time of Mr. Coon*’ leaving.
A numberofcominaiitl* at Suutu Fc were pre
paring to repel auy attacks flint might hu attempt
ed hytlie hostile Indinnsniid Mexicans, numbers
of whom are handed together for the purpose of
plundering uud murdering the pcucunidy dispos
ed inhabitant* whenever the least chance otVers
fur thum so to du.
31 r. Cook’s valuable lot of goods sent down by
Mr. Skinner, were captured by a large force of
McxieaiH. lie and Mr. l’omcroy wero taken
prisoners by the Mexicans.
The St. liarricii party from .Missouri had arriv
ed out safely.
Dr. Masiue expected to go with the Southern
expedition, which was fitting out at Santa Fe,
uud would return to tlio United States by thut
route.
