fCorroapoadeuco of tho Savunuah Georgian. J
MILLEDGEYILLE, Dec. 10.
Gentlemenl present you the following epi.
tome of tho remaVka made to tlio Senate, by the
talented Senator of the 520th district, Mr. Wig-
on the oceaaion to which they refer—end I
touch to y ou for tho corrootneu of the report.
On Friday, the 17thinst., on the passage of the
Ytil to authorize a junction of tho Central Rail
Road, and the Macon &. Western Rail Road, Mr.
\Fifgina strenuously opposed its passage. “Ho
■aid it could not receive bis support, unless it was
first approted and sanctioned by the city of Ma
con; and warmly contended, that it was the duty
of the Ceutral Rail Road Company, and that of
the Macou & Western Rail Road, if they desired
n junction, to have petitioned in their owu names,
in a proper and becoming manner, to tho Legis
lature of Georgia. That it was not iu good faith
to the city of Alacon, to attempt or to connivo at
an attempt, bs indirect means to accomplish that
which they have not openly aud niaguanimiously
demanded.
Mr. Wiggius further said, that the apparent
■snow* iu this project,were Messrs Cooper,Stroup
*Sc Wiley, a portion of this interest located in the
^City of Charleston. And thus have immunities aud
.privileges been conferred upon these roads, and
•upon the City of Savannah, without any requi-
isition. or application being mado to the General
. Assembly, by the parties directly interested.
Mr. Wiggins among other tilings said, that
while the city of Macon was marshalling her
means, and enlisting her beat taloiit to aid and ac
ceierate the city of Savannah, In the consumma
tion of her design for the construction of her road
little did she dream that alio was fostering a combi
nation of powers that would ride rampant over her
•authorities, and make the restiug placo of man-
■sions the pathways of their commerce.
On Saturday, the 18th, upon the passage of
tho bill to increase the stock of Uie Marine & Firo
Insurance Bank of Savannah—
Mr. Wiggins rose and said—ho hoped the bill
under consideration would receive the approba
tion of Senators, and that they would give to
Jtazeolons support. The increase of popula
tion, and the commercial demands of the city re
paired its passage.
Mr. Wiggina contended, that Augusta and
Charleston, had a decided advantage over the ci-
ty of Savannah, from tiio very fact ofthoim*
mens* amount of banking capital allowed them.
In order to.enable the latter to competo success
fully with these rival' markets, it is essential to
grant similar (hciiifies, provided it can be done
Without injury to other interest, equally objects
of Legislative paotection; he thought none con
flicted with the provisions of tho bill|undcr consid
eration-lie should vote for it—he desired to act
liberally towards our own seaport.
He also remarked, that the mercantile aud
financial interests of Savannah and Macon were
closely allied; and by a cultivation of their mutual
interests, they will prove formidable competitors
to all adverse interests. In Macon there was but
little banking capital, and tiie chief circulation
were the bills of the Mechanics* Bank of Augusta
and bills of the Bank now applying for au exten
sion of its capital. That tho management of the
Marine Bank had largely secured the confidence
of the people .in the Central, and upper
portions of the State, aud with tho exten-
*ion of the privilege that it now solicited,
he hoped and believed that the Directors of that in
stitution would view it as an additional evidence
of confidence, and stimulate them to continued
endeavors to increase aud retain it. There
should be no rivalry between Mucon and Suvun-
pah—bat a generous emulation, as between sis
ters, possessing a common interest, aud subject
to a common destiny.
In my haste to save the mail of yestorday,
omitted to sty to you, the House took up the re
considered bill, for tiie relief of Peter Trezevaut.
which was passed, by 4 majority; yeas 62, nays
68. If tho Senate respond to the action of the
House, this long delayed claim will at last be set-
Bed, and justice be done iu the preraisos.
Your obedient servant,
AMANUENSIS.

Gentlemen—I scribble the following in haste
the House of Representatives li&vo consumed
great portion of the morning in discussing mo
tions to reconsider bills and resolutions, passed,
rejected, or adopted Saturday lost. The Jour
nal of that day having just reached my hnrnls,
give you extracts of general concern, nnd such
local matter, as may interest your readers.
On motion of Mr.- G; r.rell, the Houso recon
sidered the resolution, adopted on Friday, refer
ring the election of Judges of tho Superior
Courts to the people to determine, by endorsing
on their tickets “ by the poople,** or •* by tho Le
gisloture.” The yeas are G4, the nays 66.
The House concurred in several amendments,
made by Senate to its bills—amoug*them, the bill
to incorporate the Savannuh and Albany Rail-
Road Company.
The following bills, among others, wero pass
ed i
To add Ossabaw Island to tiie county of Chut
ham.
To incorporate tho Irish Union Society ol the
city of Savannah.
To amend the laws af this 8tata regulating Pi-
lotage, and defining tho powers of tiie Coimuia-
aioners of Pilotage—and further to protect the
navigation of tiie Savannah River, so far ns the

Some half dozen bills wero lost: Among them

Jug Company in the county of Muscogee.
Vecoud, to levy a tax upon dogs in tiie county
Richmond' A third, to make it penal to kill deer

- Mr. Clay and Che Wllmot Democracy,
'By claiming to be a “ better Tariff man than
Mr. Cluy,” Mr. Polk succeeded in gaining tho
electoral vote of New York. Since his true
character has been developed; her intelligent
voters repudiate both him aud his measures by
thirty thousand mujority. Tho Wilrnot Demo
cracy of Now Hampshire and Penusylvauia are
ready to do likewise.”
We liavo clipped tlio above extract from the
Augusta Chronicle nud Sentinel of tho 17th
inst., ns a fair specimen of an article which com
mences by propounding a question to us. Tho
article itself is a "critique" upon some remarks
which we took occasion a few days ago to offer
in reference to “ tlio Clay and Anti-War meet*
nigs” held at the North in response to the Lex
ington speech. A specimen of tiie proceedings
oftheir meetings wo liavo ulrendy given to our
readers. No language of. abuse, vituperation,
and insult ngaiust tho South has boon too strong
for their sponkers to use. Tho ruthloss lash of
tlio tyrannical master, and “ the blood spurting
from the back of the slave," uro topics upon which
thoy have delighted to dwell. No abolition
meeting which has had Tappnu for its President
aud Gcrritt Smith for its orutor,could have offer
ed deeper insult to the Southorn people. Yot
such assemblages as these have been held in res
ponse to the 8cntiments of Mr. Clay, and have
proclaimed 'their reverence, affection, and idola
trous devotion to him ns the great exponent of
their opinions on nil subjects, nnd especially up
on the sluvo question. And tiicse are the assem
blages which the Augustu Chronicle and Senti
nel, a Southern print, is eagor to defend npon
the ground “that the people should enjoy their con
stitutional right peaceably to assemble, and discuss
all sulyccts which concern the public welfare."
Our renders will perceive at once that tho pre
cious paragraph extracted above, falls with mar
vellous propriety into a defence of these Federal
Abolition meetings. To whom, inquires tho wri
ter, will you appeal in order to put a slop to
these assemblages 1 and by a reply of this sort to
nn expression of ours,broadly proclaims that they
are "the gatherings of the American people." Will
yon invoko the assistance, ho asks, of tlio majori
ty which elected Mr. Polk ? That mujority no
longer exists—and then ho proceeds to show
when and how it has been lost. Does ho show
that it has been IobI iu tlio South? No. In the
slave holding States of the West? No. But he
point* in triumph to the “thirty thousand majori
ty of the intelligent voters" of New York who have
repudiated Mr. Polk and his measures. Why did
this majority repudiate Mr. Polk ? which of his
measures was so odious to them? Cun it be pos
sible that tho Chrouiclo aud Sentinel places so
low an estimate upon the common perception
und intelligence of its readers ntf to suppose Ibr n
mo me ill that thoy will be humbugged by the sug
gestion that New York gave her vote to Mr. Polk*
becauso he claimed to be a better tariff man than
Mr. Clay? Were there no other assignable cmiso
for the Into Democratic defeat in that Stato, what
mau in his sound senses would attempt to account
for it upon this ground ? Tlio argument might
have been applied with somo degree of plausibility
to Pennsylvania, hud the Whigs been successful
there, but to Now York, wbosu interest lias ever
becu opposed to tlio tariff, whose masses aro
known to bo unti-TuriilV u commercial uud agri
cultural State, almost entirely, to attempt to fix it
to her, is to perpetrato ail ubsnrdity which re
floats badly enough upon tlio intelligence or tho
sincerity of the writer. No man of nn ordi
nary perception enn be ignorant of the fact that
New York was lost to the Democrats on ac
count of tho Wilrnot proviso ; that a minority of
tiie party, dissatisfied with tiie act of the majority
of tho Syracuse Convention, either voted for tho
Whig ticket or did not voto at .all, and that thus
the Federal party, by tho force of unanimity in
favor of the proviso, and against the rights of the
South, wore triumphant over the Democrats, a
majority of whom manfully stood tip against the
proviso, aud in favor if the South, although it

Scott refused m n hasty manner, whereupon, the
former remarked, “I will do it, sir.” “Then I ar

The army is excited, and if wo may judge from
what we hear at this distance, more than a inoiety
of it sympathizes with thu Generals sought to he

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
On motion of Mr. Charles J. Iugersoll, the spo-
cial order of tiio duy, biting the report of the
Cominittco ou thu Rules, was postponed till to

Mr. Butts offered a joint resolution to restore
the mail between Washington aud Richmond to
the old contractors at tlio rates formerly allowed,
and to iudoinniiy the now contractors for dama
ges.
Tho message of tho President of tiie United
States, giving his reasons for withholding his
signature to tlio River and Harbor Bill, passed
by tiie last Congress, came up next, us the un
finished business of yestorday.
Mr. Pottit inudo a spirited speech, against tlio

P. hud concluded,
Mr. Jacob Thompson arose und announced
the death of Senator Speight ; und after pro
nouncing upon him an appropriate eulogy, tho

Movements of the Ocean Steamers.—Tho Hiber
nia was to sail from Liverpool on the 4th of De

Tho Caledonia will sail from Liverpool for
Boston, ou the 19th of December, nnd return from

Bite of a Rattlesnake.—Dr. Leo, of Hartford,
Conn., who has practised extensively at the
South, status that he bus treated five cases of rat
tlesnake bito, mid all of them successfully. His
remedy is alcholic Honor—either rum, brandy, or
gin—given in large doses. A linlf pint every fif.
teen minutes, making a quart iu an hour, 'is not
too much to he givon ns soon as possible after the
bite. This rornedy has been used at tho South
to a great oxteut, and lias never boon known to
Ikil of a cure. The liquor absorbs or deadons
the fatal virus, nnd never bitnxicotes tiie subject
so long vifl tho virus oftiio reptile is in the system.
From tlio l’cmiaylvnuian.
The N. Y. Legislature—Pope Pius IX.—Col.
Young hns introduced into tlio Senate of New

uudorrulos, wore laid on tho table, to receive tho

press in animated language the enthusiastic senti
ment with which tlio Republicans of New York
view tho struggle of tlio Roman Poiiliil’, to free
his Church from tho dominion of temporal poten
tates, aud to sucure to his People thu blessings of
good government:
Kuwlvcd, (if tlio Assembly concur,) That tho

Trenton, N. J., Oct. 2,1315.
Mr SetliW. Fowlo, Boston:
Dear Sir—Permit me to address myself,
through you, to all who nro suffering with any
pulmonary complaint, and advise and recommend
all such to use at once Dr. Wistur’s great remedy,
a medicine which I sincerely believe will cure,‘if
a cure be possible, and uot waste their time and
money on tho many trashy and worthless nostrums
of the day. Oue year ago lust fall, I took a sudden
cold, winch settled at once upon my lungs. I was
soon obliged to take niv room. A severe cough
followed, and I soon lost my appetite, and conse
quently uiy strength. I became very much re
duced, sutlered severe pain iu tlio side, breast,
shoulders, &c. I coughed much nights aud raised
large quantities of mattor, sometimes accompa
nied with blood. I continued to grow worse, and
was obliged to consult a physician, who visited
ami prescribed forme several times, but afforded
mu little relief. I became alarmed ami discour
aged ut my situation; my family and neighbors
supposed 1 could not live long. Fortunately I
found ono of Dr. Wistaria pamphlets, aud like a
drowning man “catching nt straws,” I took cour-
age, and sent immcdinlolv for a bottle of
WISTAR’S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY.
My disuaso was so deeply rooted, however, that I
was obliged to got a second und a third bottle be
fore I began to improve perceptibly. I kept on
until I ban taken two more bottles; continuing to
improve-1 soon regained my upputite and strength.
I continued to grow better until tlio summer,
when l was able to do a days work on my farm
every day, and have continued so to do. My
health has not been hotter for four years than at
this time. To your invaiuublo medicine, uow so
universally popular, I feel indebted, through
Providence, for tlio preservation ofniy life. Try
it for yourselves Signed,

Night Sweats, Hoarseness, aud sound of the
voice indicating ai; alarming state of disease; my
appetite was gone, uud my strength hud so far
fulled me that iny friends und physiciuu were per
