Mr. Tift de clined the proposals in the Committee, and declined them In the meeting—not but that they would pro mote his Interests and the interests of tho people of Albany,bat from the fear that In accepting them he would be dealing In bad faith towurds Gen. Brisbane, one of tho parties to the charter, who owns a large body of land lying on the direct route from Savan nah to Albany. Now far be it from ns to cast any unkind Imputations upon Mr. Tift, yet we may be permitted to express our regret (and will not our fu ture legislators take note of the fact in granting other charters?) that the Interests of Savannah, tho inter ests of Albany, the interests of Southern Georgia— yes, of all Georgia and of much of Florida, had to be sacrificed to the interests of one man ; and he, not a citizen of tho State I As regards this city, wo do not complain. Tho consummation of her connection with the Gnlf will not be delayed one day, as we shall pre sently show, by Mr. Tift’s chivalrous devotion to Gen. Brisbane's interests. But that tho interposi tion of this gentleman's lands should bo tho means of preventing a railroad communication north, south, east and west from Albany must be, we think, a source of regret to the people of that place. The action of Savannah In this matter Is worthy of herself. Never had her people so much reason to be proud of their home as on this day. To Col. Tift, claiming to use it for Gen. Brisbane’s interests, though believing herself legally and morally entitled to control It, she has relinquished the charter under which the organization was formed. The largo as semblage which met yesterday—ono of the most re spectable meetings that we have ever known con ▼ened in this city, adopted unanimously the resolu tions in favor of a new organization for the construc- tim nf * road to tha Florida line : recommended the transfer of tho private subscriptions of between four and five hundred thousand dollars to the company to be formed under a new charter, and urged upon the corporation a subscription of one million, instead or the half of that sum already made. Dr. Bobbvbn, with characteristic energy, waited not even an adjournment of the meeting before com mencing the work of obtaining a transfer of the sub scription previously obtained to the proposed new oompany. Thus far we have heard of no stockholder who has not renewed his subscription. Some have quadrupled, some have doubled their amounts. In conclusion—for we have space fpr no more—we port at an adjourned meeting, to-morrow, at 12 o'clock. On motion, was laid on the (able. The following resolution waa passed— By F, S. Bartow, Esq., seconded by J. Stoddard, Esq. Resolved. That the city of Savannah, and Col. Tift, for his recent subscription of a million and a half of dollars, be excluded from voting at this meeting. Ur. Hit called for a vote ou this resolution by stock which was not entertained. Dr. R. D. Arnold now moved to take up the resolution, .for the appointment of a Committee, offered by Col. Tift, and seconded by Capt. Tho*. Forman—the same being call ed waa passed—and the following Committee was appoint' ed by the Chair, In accordonce with the samo : Hon. J. M. Berrien, Col. N. Tift, R. It. Cuyler, Esq., Ur. J P. Screven, and Ueo. W. Anderson, Esq. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned until 10 o’clock to-morrow, to recclvo the report of the will say that the prospect of a road from Savannah to the Florida line was'never brighter than on this day. Timely Relief. The U. 8. revenno cutter Hamilton, Captain T. C. Rudolph, of Charleston, on a crnlso off the coast of Georgia and South Carolina, on the 18th instant, fell In with and boarded tho bark S. E. Baxter, Captain Joseph Darnabv, of Philadelphia, bonnd from Apa lachicola for New York, which former port she left on the 16th Instant. Captain Dabnabt was found pros trate with inflammatory rheumatism, and wholly un able to perform duty. He requested Lt. Morrison, the boarding officer of the cutter, to tako command of the bark, and make the nearest port. Accordingly Lt. Morribon kept off for Savannah light, bearing south-west a distance of thirty-five miles. He receiv ed a pilot on board at an early hour yesterday morn ing. The bark is now anchored in Cockspur Roads, and Captain Dabnabt has been brought up to the city, and placed under skillful medical treatment. On the 13th, in answer to a signal, ho was boarded by Captain Sawyer, of the bark Cuba, in lat. 27° 30", Ion. 70° 50" West, who kindly supplied him with medicines, and otherwise administered to his necessities. On Wednesday, P. M., as related to us, the signal of distress was made to tho steamship Au gusta, Capt. Lton, from this port for New York, which waa noticed from tho steamer, but she kept on her way without inquiring into the nature of tho case. Of this we are at a loss to account, it being so entire ly contrary to the well known character of Captain Lton and the officers under hla command; and we doubt not will bo satisfactorily explained, at least we hope so. The conduct of Captanl Sawyer waa such ns beoomes the true Bailor and humane man, and is spoken of by Capt. Dabnabt with the liveliest grati tude, whoso sufferings for tho past ton days have been of the moat painful character, rendering him os help less ss an infant; and bat for the timely relief of the catter, and the devoted personal kindness of Lieut. Morrison, might soon have been beyond medical re lief. Frost.—There was considerable Frost in the neigh.- boihood of Jacksonville, Ala., on Saturday morning ibe 31st Inst, bnt not enough to do injury. The brig Qipsey, Capt. Boyd, arrived at New York on the 33d from Mayagues, reports that the latter place was healthy at the time of the sailing of the brig, and that sugar and molasses was coming in fast, .• Suicide of s Minister, Ac.

It aball be re turned to tbo subscribers, without deduction or charge. 1 ' It la evident, from these extracts, thst the conditions of the organisation have not been oomplted with | that the present meeting of subscriber* for stock, under the provis ional organisation, is not a meeting of stockholders capable of binding the company; that the subscribers for stock are, by the terms of their subscription, released from all liabili ty } the whole organisation Is Told by tta own limitation and It would require tbe consent of both the subscribers for stock, and the holders of tbe charter, to continue tbe pres ent, or to constitute a new organisation. Wo think that either of these alternatives is Impracticable at present, for the reason Hint a majority of the Savannah subscribers are opposed to constructing a road on tho line to Albany, aa fixed by the charter, and believe It to be for thetr Interest to run a line southward, In the direction ol Tallahassee, FIs. Whilst the holders of the charter believe It to bo their duty, the Interest of stockholders, and vital to the Interests or South-western Georgia, that the road shall be construct ed on the chartered line to Albany, which la In a direct line to Mobile and Pensacola, its eventual destination. Wo concur In the recommendation or tbe majority of the committee, that tbe charter be surrendered to the persona who formed the present organization; and though the construction of this great work, and the hope of South-western Georgia for a direct connection with a seaboard market, seem to be deferred forj a time, we have reason to believe that, with a new organisation, and the aid of foreign capital, the road will be commenced and com pleted within thp time limited by tbe charter. It was moved by lion. J. It, Berrien, seconded by R. R. Cuyler, that the report of tho majority Committee bo adopted. The following waa offered by Col. Gaulden, as a substitute, and seconded by Col. Marsh : lUsolval, As tbe sense of this meeting, we will build the contemplated Railroad upon tbe route suggested la the Chief Engineer’s report, vis: the Tallahassee route to the Chattahoochee. This road to be denominated the branch road, at and from the nearest point that it approaches Al bany. That ao soon aa It la practicable and bo soon as Al bany or those persons in that quarter will furnish two thirds of the means necessary, we will complete the main trunk to Albany. Which waa lost. On motion the qaestlon mas taken on the adoption of the report, &c., presented by Hon. J. M. Berrien, and tho samo was adopted. On motion of Dr. Screven, seconded by R. R. Cuylor : Rcsolml, That the subscribers to the 8arannali and Al bany Railroad Company will transfer their subscriptions to the stock of the Company, to be organized under tho char ter, to be applied for to the next Legislature. Oa motion, the meeting adjourned R. WAYNE, Chainnnn. Fbbl. s to oome. with Brunswick. The fact maybe ed as fixed that Savannah will have a road (whether Bruns wick has one or not) 'at .for aa tho county qf Thomas, at least. The million already spoken ot will carry the road some ten mllea south of tne Alatamaha, another million would Insure Its extension to Thomas eounty. I may, I think, go further without Incurring censure for mere boast ing, and eay, that if. Indeed, a canal from the Alatamaha to Brunswick Is likely to deprive ui of *11 the lumber and other products of the great region watered by that river and Its tributaries, there la room and chartered right to ex tend the Ogeechee Canal, fifty mllea through the beat pine forest In Georgia, to tbo aeme Alatamaha river, if a railroad ■hall be fonna Inadequate to secure for ue all that trade. Then le no existing charter for a railroad from Savannah to the northern line of Florida. In an amendment to tbe Brunswick and Florida Railroad charter, there Is no pro vision for that Oompany to build to Savannah Instead ol Brunswick.

But this I can, I think, with truth aar, that If the Drunswlck company sball build their road, there will be two roads to meet you both, either of which vour people can use as they may find moat conducive to their Interest.

They have (ailed to obtain a satisfactory agreement for the control of the charter, by a vote of a majority of the h ireholders, and after what lias occurred during the meeting, they feel constrained to express tho opinion, that tho subscriber* should surrender the charter to the Representative* from Albany. In order that there may be a distinct understanding of tbe reason, for the opin ion above expressed, the committee beg leave to present a Preamble and Resolution*, which a majority of the commit tee agreed upon, aa proper to bo pawed by tho meeting.— Tho gentleman who claims that tho charter should bo sur rendered to those who mado the provisional organization, in case of disagreement, as to the route of the Road, declines to acquiesce in the view which is taken in tbe said Pream ble and Resolutions, nud Is not content that the subscriber* should exerclso the power* therein set forth.

Sirs I learn from our mutual friend, Mr. Hilton, that you intend, soon, to hare a meeting of the citizens of Florida, at Tallahassee, ti discuss the matter of connecting, by railroad, the city of Pensacola, with an Atlautic port, and that you have expressed to him a wish that I would pre sent my views, in person or by letter. My engagements preclude my personal attendance. I have looked steadily, and worked hanj. for many years, fora connection, through South-western Georgia, of Pensa cola with the city of Macon, and thus^^ only with the Atlantic ports or Savannah and CharlffliB, but, directly, with the great railroad routes of the Middle States—north, east and west. I am persuaded that in the course of time that connection will be made. My fellow citizens In con siderable numbers, felt anxious to obtain a more direct con nection. nnd upon their manifestation of that anxiety I de termined to give them all the aid In my power. They have nut their shoulders to the wheel, and are now seeking to luilik* road hence, aa directly aa may be. towards your great Gulf port. It is natural that our people should look for the establishment of the line in the State of Georgia as for as the Chattahoochee, the boundary between your State and-this on the west. Your Legislature, recently, In a spirit of wisdom and liberality, granted a charter, by which Pensacola can be reached by the Georgia lines. 1 am aware that many of your prominent nnd worthy men have looked to the building of your central road, from Pensacola entire ly through your jurisdiction, to the waters of the River □t. John’s. Mr. Cabell’s letter to hts constituents apprised me of that desire. An effort of that character is just as natural and praiseworthy as is the wish of our fellow citi zens to have the road through all the Southern counties bounding your north line. I have not foiled to examine, with attention, the proceed ings of a mooting hold at Monticello, on the 7th of last month, and seo therein a desire to conciliate the people of your Eastern border, whilst you are endeavoring to connect yoar Western and Middle sections with tbe Atlantic, in a more direct inode. You think, doubtless, that ths task of building the Central Road is too heavy for your citizens to bear, and you wish to avail yourself of the resources of the people here to enablo you to get out on the broad Atlantic, at a well established commercial point. Your proceedings at Moaticello seem to invite an understanding between the people of Middle Florida and Sarannah, that about half of the great Pensacola road shall be in your 8tate, passing by your Capitol, and that tho other hair shall be in Georgia.- You feel COLUMBIA.

That the citizens of Savannah, In town meeting assembled, hereby ratify and confirm tho subscription ol $500,000, made br the City Council, to the capital stock of the Savannah and Albany Railroad. Re-otred, That should circumstances occur to make It ad visable in the judgment of tbe directors, to change their or ganization, and to commence the work bn a leu subscrip tion than two millions of dollars, as provided for in tho or ganization of tho Company, this subscription by tho city of Uavanuata shall nevertheless be valid and of full forco :— Provided, That the work be commenced at. nnd carried on from Kavanuah, or from a point on the Central Railroad near Savaunali ; And provided further, That no portion of the subscription of the city of Bavannah shall bo expended, until tho sum of at least Qve hundred thousand dollars ■hall be obtained from other sources. Resolved, That the city of Savannah, in making this sub scription, looks to a direct connection with the Gulf of Mex ico nnd South-western Georgia, nud should tho Savannah and Albany Railroad Company fail in obtaining the neccs ■ary means to extend the road from Savannah beyond tho Alatamaha to Albany, this city will le at liberty to prose cute her enterprise by such route as may best promote the accomplishment of her design, and be most conducive * the commerce ot tho State. And whereas, tho Savannah and Albany Railroad Com pany, up to thia period, has foiled to obtain the necessary means to extend the Road from beyond tho Alatamaha to Albany, and this city Is, therefore, by the very terms of the action of November last, at full liberty to prosecute bor enterprise of a connection with tho Gulf of Mexico by such route as may best promote tho accomplishment of her de sign, It la Resolved, by the subscribing stockholders here pro- sent and represented—That It Is our purpose, upon and with a subscription of one million of dollars, to build a railroad from Savannah to a point west of the river Alatamaha, crossing that river In the vicinity of Doctor Town, or in the vicinity of Oglethorpe Bluff, or in the vicinity of Beard's Bluff—crossings equallv fair for the extension of the road to Albany, on the one hand, and in a direction through Decatur County to Fensacola on tho other hand. That it Is furtiier our purpose to extend tho said Road from the point west of the Alatamaha river, through the southern tier of counties in Georgia, by tho most direct and practicable route, to au eligible point in Decatur county on the northern boundary of Florida, or on tho western bank of tho Chattahoochee river, at which to unite with the Flo rida and Georgia Company in carrying on tho road through West FJorlda to Pensacola. F’or this purpose we will use every oxertion to procure the necessary means,and we can not doubt our ability to accomplish tbe task. That it is further our ” “ Jou feel the necessity of contributing, promptly and liber ally, to the work, and have, in a sensible and patriotic man ner, said openly, what your people ought to do and will do. All this. I beg to say. is calculated to give much satisfaction to the inhabitants of this city. A movement such as you - p on . .... .. . Poisoning.

To build a Railroad from Savannah to Pensacola is no huly-dny work, but a great and difficult undertaking. Tlie resources at hand in tbe two States would not be sufficient to do the work. Aid from abroad must be sought, but that aid will come. It ia because such a road would be national in Its character and influences, and be cause it would bo part of a great thoroughfare to and from our Pacific possessions that funds would corao from Now York and from abroad, and I have in my hands, strong as surance that they will be forthcoming if we start right with proper guarantee that these funds will be properly applied. We probably agree, then, on this interesting subject. You are taking an activo and prominent part in this good work, and nro, in every way entitled to know what has been done and what can. and will, probably, be done by us. 1 desire to give you, with perfect candor, a succinct account of the proceedings and efforta of the people of Savannah in regard to tbo Pensacola road. Many of the merchants and Lot holders of thla city have long desired to see a Railroad hence, to and through the .Southern tior of counties, but it was not in their power, ex hausted as they were by their liberal expenditures, Indeed great sacrifices, in aid of the improvement* now just about being finished, to build such a road, and some of the South ern counties themselves have not been able, until oflatn, to contribute any largo sum for the purposo. In this state ot things, Northern citizens nought to bring the city of Brunswick again into public notice, and unite our Kouthern counties, by a road, with that port. In the summer of lost year they re organized the Brunswick aud Florida Railroad Company to build tho road which was projected- some six teen years ago—surveyed—and thon abandoned after con siderable outlay of money. The kindred work ofthe Bruns wick Canal was at the aame time revived and recently, there has been added to these two. a joint stock Company, operating upon the Town Lots of Brunswick and adjacent lands at a valuation of three millions of dollars. In Au gust last a gentleman from toudon, engagod In business, as a Banker in that city, camo to Georgia to promote the In terests of a Belgian Company which, the public paper* had informed us, was seeking to raise funds abroad to build a Railroad from Savannah through Albany. (Geo.,) to Mobile and tbenco to the Mississippi. He placed himself In com munication with the Representatives of tho Savannah, and Professor Alexander C. Barry’s Trlcopherone, or Medicated Compound, fornreserving. fastening, softening nnd promoting the growth or tho hair, cleansing the head, and curing diseases of the skin, and external cuts, bruises fro. The common consent of all who have used Harry’s Trl- cupheru*. whether for the improvement and iuvigoration of the hair, or for eruptions, cuts, bruises, frc., places It nt the bend nil preparations intondod for tho like purposes. This is no ill-considered assertion. Figures and wets bear it out. Tho sales average a million of bottles a year: the receipts, in cash, $100,000. This year the business will exceed that amount. Tho number of orders which dally arrive at the depot and manufactory, 137 Broadwny, New' York, address ed to Professor Barry, enclosing cash, and requiring Imme diate attention, would scarcely bo believed. Tlie whulesalo demand is from 2.000 to 3,000 bottles a day. probably ex ceeding that of all the other hair preparations conjoined. The popularity of the articlo everywhere, and the liberal terms to dealers, combine to increase its sales with great rapidity j nnd improvements in its cnm]>osition. made nt considerable oxpense. add* to its reputation ns well as in trinsic value.

Accordingly there was an organization of the Savannah and Albany Company, and Dr James P Screven, of this city, was chosen President thereof. The precise natnre and history of that organization you will And in the printed pamphlets accompanying this letter.— It waa contemplated, as you will aee, that upon tho forth coming of the two millions from 4 across the water,” the people here were to subscribe half a million and then that tbe two and a half millions should build a Roilrotd from Sa vannah to Albany. These last mentioned proceedings stir red up those gentlemen who had longed for a rood hence Southwestwardly towards the Florida line, and In feet, in spired our people generally with great anxiety to soesuch a communication established. The City Council of Savannah desiring to invito the two millions of foreign capital to Geor gia. passed a resolution to put down the whole of the flva hundred thousand dollars acquired under the arrangement to which 1 have adverted, coupled with a proviso that their constituents shoull, in public town meeting, first, giro theic sanction, and council further provided for a survey.— A public meeting followed. By the time of its assemblage, it was quite evident that the two million from abroad would not be subscribed except upon terms considered so anreastnable os not to be entertained even for a moment. Our citizens could not bear to be baffled ; they saw publica tions and statements, scattered about, ofthe powers aud resources of tbe Brunswick Companies, and many of them were led to believe that there would, in brief space, be a railroad from Brunswick to Thomasvllle and Albany, and a Canal from Turtle River to the Alatamaha, and that Bruns wick, thereby might be the means of drawing off the people ofthe South-west from this seaport. They determined to provide one million of dollars to bnlld a railroad from this oity to the Alatamaha River, whleh might be continued to Albany, If funds for that parpoeo were provided, and to be carried, certainly on a direct line towards the juncture of the nint and Cbattaboocheo Rivers, on the way to Pensaco la. The report of the proceedings of the Town meeting you will find ia a number ofthe Savannah Republican which I now tend. Our people have. In my opinion, determined resolutely that one million be expended ss stated above, and they have also determined (so for as 1 have been able, to gather their views) that the line shall, with their funds, be extended in a direct ooune towards the junction wift '* view to Pensacola. I venture, in this connection, to nay that they will agree to carry the work to yoar border In Thomas County, to be run thence to Tallahassee or Its vi cinity. The lubecription already up to 9000,000 is now go ing on, and will soon reach the million. 1 have said that many of our dtisens were led to believe that the Brunswick rood would bo ballt; That opinion was not general at any period, and I hasard nothing In saying that now there are very few, if any, who believe It. The opinion of well informed persons hare bos been mod* up af ter maturely considering the manner of tbe re-organise (tons of the Brunswick Companies, the statements whioh have been put forth, and ooatrastiof what has actually been done with the representations of pragma. Because this 'opinion has been freely expressed hero; the people of Savan nah, I regret to say, have been placed by some of their fol- during the time of the assignee’s sale of clothing, will please return the same to maj-27 PHILBUICK fr BELL. vaxxaii.
