unanimity, and over four hundred thousand doRan
added by private Individuals.' In tbit they acted
without any charter In Georgia, and tailed In Florida
upon our ebarter for the Pensacola and Georgia
Railroad. Commissioners appointed In our act, ad
vertised the opening of books or subscription for the
capital stock of this road on the drat September. Two
days before this, via J on the 30th of August, another
eity meeting was held in Savannah, When heroin-
aens with equal unanimity transferred these sub-
seriptioruTto the Uoorgla charter for the Savannah
and Albany Railroad, to be extended to the Gulf In
that direction. The objects and resulted this second
meeting were not known to ns at the large and res
pectable Railroad meeting ornltUens or Leon Ooanty
held in Tallahassee on tho first. But it was apparent
to all tbatehe mere call published in the 8avannab
papers which bad reached ns, was calculated to cre
ate some doubt here whether such a proceeding was
not In oonsequenoe of a change of views In 8avannoh,
as to the route for her Railroad to.the Gulf of Mexico.
It had a depressing effect on the object of our meet-
lug, and many were induced to suspond their sub
scriptions until It was known what bad been done m
Savaunab. The newspaper accounts wero soon re
ceived, but they wero somewhat contradictory andun-
satlafactory. Not a few persons, who took counsel
perhaps from their wishes, professed to find them
confirmatory or the olt repeated allegation that Sa-
vannah never seriously intended to build a road
through Florida to Pensacola. Others took a more
encouraging view. In a low days a letter was re
ceived from a gentleman in Savannah prominently
connected with the whole movement, intended to ex
plain fully the design of the recent action taken by
that city, and its bearing on her preferred connection
with Florida and the Guirat Pensacola. The letter
contained ono or two remarks which afforded some
ground to fear that, although Savannah still designed
to build a road to an acceptable point in Mlddlo Flo
rida, sho might- bo content to leave Its extension
through to Pensacola to the people of Florida. It was
desirable that there should be no doubt on this sub
ject, and tho writer was immediately apprised of tbo
importance of removing all just grounds for such
doubt, by a full and explicit assurance from Savan
nah, and this has drawn a second letter, which clears
away every obscarity aud uncertainty.
The citizens of*Florida can now put down their
subscriptions with tho fullest assurance that Savan
nah is in earnest, and will bo true to her pledges*—
We can now placo ourselves in connection with the
great Railroad communications through other States,
both to the east and to the west, while wo secure the
.means or binding together West and Middle Florida
by a main trunk, ready to receive branches from eve
ry important commercial point on their own seaboard.
This will leavo but a short distance over which to ex
tend tho road to tho waters of the Atlantic, within
our own borders, os well as to connect with the
scheme of South Florida in her Railroad up the Pe
ninsula, from the Gulf to tho Atlantic, by which she
too will have access to the world or Railroads and of
northern commerce;'without further encountering
the delays aud dangers of navigation around the
capes.
We subjoin the coiTespondeuco above referred to,
in order that all may see the grounds on which we
rest our confidence, as well as that they may be con
vinced that there never has been any intention, by
this movement in Middle Florida, of losing sight of
the true interests or the whole State. We shall re
joice to see confidence and harmony restored, and all
unworthy suspicions and jealousies entirely removed,
and wo now earnestly urge “ a long pall—a atron
pull—and a pull all together.”

Savannah, Sept. 1,1853.
Dbar Sir Before this communication reaches
you, tho newspapers of our city will have conveyed
tho intelligence of the action of tbo citizens of Savan
nah, at their lato meeting upon railway affairs. I
apprehend that tho bearing of this action upon our
Florida connexion may not be well understood, and
I therefore undertake to write a few lines of explana
tion.
Tho Savannah and Albany Railroad charter grants
the privilege of constructing such branch roads, to
wards the North and towards the South, as the Com
pany may deem requisite. Having the power, under
this liberal charter, to make a branch to Florida, I
have always thought that it would be unwise to ap
ply to the Legislature for a new charter, and have
been making efforts for somo time post to get tho
control of the Albany charter, and those efforts bavo
at last been crowneu with success. Tho road to Al
bany and that to Florida will pursue a cqminon trunk
to tbo west bank of the Altiunaim river. From that
point, or near it, the Florida road will probably branch
off. Under tho organization recently formed, provis-
ertheless at liberty to extend a branch to Florida,
whether tbo main trunk be coutinued or not. By this
organization, foreign capital will assist as in the con
struction of the branch. This is very important to us,
because wo shall need two millions of dollars to reach
the Florida line, and oar'present subscription doeB
not exceed one million four hundred thousand dollars.
Tho organization does not bind us to enter Florida by
any particular lino. Wo ore allowed to run a branch
to any part of the line of East or Middle Florida. 1
will shortly proceed to London to negotiate this busi
ness. 1 have somo reason to expect success. At all
ovents it is worth the effort.
Tho Mobilo road is not designed to bo ft competing
road with Florida’s favorite central scheme. The In
vitation to co-operate in tho construction of the for-
four camo from London capitalists. Savannah unaid
ed would not undertake it; but the offer of such strung
help was Irresistible, more especially when we thought
that somo of this capital might bo advantageously ap
plied to our favorite Florida connection, aud we ac
cordingly mado arrangement for it iu tho organiza
tion. 1 hope, therefore, that instead of lessening, it
wilt increase the subscriptions in Florida. Middlo
Florida should now subscribe more liberally, bucauso
Pensacola may probably be sail ■‘fled with our connec
tion with her By means of tho Montgomery road, and
may be dlslnolmod to put down hor laonoy upon tho
Control road, after tho very liberal subscription she
has made to the Montgomery connection.
Any information that I have omitted to impart in
this brief letter, will most cheerfully be given if you
will honor me with a letter of inquiry.
I hope to hear of your entlro success in making up
the necessary subscription. Tho expectation of for
eign aid in the .construction of our Florida brunch,
ought to inspire confidence in tho enterprise.
Very respectfully, yours,
JAMES P. SCREVEN.
To Hon. Jambs E. Broome, Tallahassee.
Savannah, 17th Sept., 1853.
[essrs. B. F. Wbltner, R. A. Shino and Edward
Houston, Couimltteo for subscriptions iu Leon
County—
Gentlemen Your communication of tho Gth Inst,
has been duly received, and I avail myself of an early
occasion, after oar interrupted intercourse with Flori
da, to make reply to it. My letter to Gov. Broome
was designed to furnish him with proper explanations
of tho action of Savanuah in Railroad matters in
which Florida is interested, and to encourage and
promote liberal subscriptions in that Stato to the
Georgia and Florida Railroad. I nm surprised, there
fore, that its obvious meaning and intent should have
been misinterpreted. You state that as you under
stand, “ it seems intended to withdraw your attention
and separate your action from the interest of West
Florida,” and you intimate that it indicates a design
on tho part of Savannah not to comply with her
pledges to the peoplo of Florida. Tho sentence of
tny letter which had been tortured into meaning of
such portentous import,simply conveys an apprehen
sion that Pensacola may bo satisfied with our con
nection by meant ol the Montgomery road, and may
lie disinclined to subscribe to your Central rond after
her liberal aubacriptioh to tbo Montgomery road, and
advising that Middle Florida should, in consequence,
subscribe more liberally. This apprebensiou was
based on the opinion of a gentleman of distinction
in Pensacola, who intimated to me that much should
not be expected by Savannah from that city, because
the sum subscribad by her to tho Montgomery road
was actually a contribution to the Savannah road, in
asmuch as tho two roads must pursue a common track
for 20 to 25 miles, on account of tho topography of
tho adjacent couutry. My odvico to tho people of
Middlo Florida to subscribe liberally, was designed to
make up the apprehended dollclt on the part oi Pon-
sacola, so that the sum of $800,000 might ue obtained,
to secure the connection of onr road with the Geor
gia and Florida road in Hamilton county, and was
notlntented, ns you allogo, to separate the interest
of Middle and West Florida.
The recent action of Savannah has not produced
any alteration In hor purpose to connect with Flori
da and Pensacola upon the terms set forth in resolu
tions adopted at tho previous meetings of her citi
zens, but actually makes further provision for carry
ing out that purpose. Previous to the late meeting,
we possessed no charter by whloh we could construct
a road to Florida. At that meeting it was determin
ed to organize nndor the Savannah and Albany Rail
road charter, which obables us, without applying to
the Legislature for a new charter* to build to any
point on tho lino of Middle Florida. Savannah has,
it is true, agreed to cooperate under the aame char
ter with English capitalists in constructing a railway
to Mobile; but the organization requires that a
branch to Florida shall bo simultaneously construct
ed with the main trunk, and it depends upon tb«
people of Florida whether that branch shall go to
Hamilton county,-or aotne other point on the Florida
line. If the subscription or $800,000 Is mado to the
Georgia and Florida Rrllroad by Florida, Savanuah
has engaged to meet that road at a point ou tbo line
0 m Q comity* to be determined upon,and she
wm fulfil her engagements by building 1T0 miles of
the road to that point. Yon desire to know whsthor
say, *• this seems to imply that when this portion of
tho work is done, Savannah has nothing further to do,
and that thence to Pensacola it is a Florida underta
king, to'depend solely upon Florida capital, credit
and enterprise.’’ In reply, I hare to aay that it Is not
the intention of-Bavanab.aa I understand it, that tho
road ahonld stop there. It is to her Interest Uistlt

C. O. LANODON, Mayor.
Savannah, Ga.. llit) Sept.. 1853.
Dear Sir: To-duy I had the pleasure of an inter
view with tbo gentlemen who lead tho enterprise for
connecting the cities of Savannah and Mobile by an
air-lino railroad.
This connection was an object of so much solici
tude to our citizens, that they lately subscribed one
million of dollars to tho road leading in the direction
of Columbus. It was not then contemplated tlmt any
more direct line, at least for a long period, could be
undertaken with the assurance of success. It seems
now. however, that foreign capital, guided by an en
lightened forecast, is now seeking an investment by
which the Gulf and Atlantic willho connected at the
points Indicated, by a direct line running from the
city of Savannah, throngb Albany, in Baker county,
to Mobilo. Certain gentlemen ol London have agreed
to devote ten millions, should it be nccessaijr.for tho
consumation of this work.
The very best evidence I could givo you of the con
fidence of tho citizens of this place in the projected
enterprise Is, that the corporate authorities have been
directed bv a populur meeting to subscribe one mil
lion of doflara to tbo undertaking, and an ordinance
giving legal validity to this subscription is now be
fore the Municipal Board, and will soon be perfected.
By an inspection of the map, it will be perceived
that a large portion of the road from Mobjle to Green
ville would constitute a propur stem for the western
terminus of this work, and that it is evidently to the
interest of all parties to make this junction.
To ono of your liberal vlewi and intelligence, noth
ing need bo said to-illustrate tho advantages and fa
cilities of this great enterprise. Ail that is desired by
those engaged in its promotion U a charter throagh
the titato, and the privilege of making this junotion,
both of which,! bavo ventured to say, will be freely
accorded.
Add this to tho roads now In progress, chief among
which I rank tbo Mobile and Ohio, with its adjunct,
tho Mobilo and New Orleans, and Mobile becomes
permanently the center of Southwestern improve
ments.
An agent of the Savannah and Mobile Road has al
ready proceeded to London, and Its president will
follow early in October; and as it has been suggested
that some expression approbatory of tho work would
bo expected Irom our city, I would respectfully re
commend that appropriate resolutions bo adopted
either by town meeting, or through tho action or the
municipal boards, and that they be forwarded at os
early a day as possiblo to Dr. James 1*. Scriven, pre
sident of the Company.
I shall ask to be permitted to address to you any
communications I may havo to make touchiug the in
terests of our city.
With seutimeuts of respect, I remain,
Your obedient servant,

The Cotton Crop.—Tho Bayou Sara Ledger says:
It is truly distressing to witness tho vast amount of
damago dono to the cotton crop in this section by tho
rot. Tho rains within tho last month have caused
not only the forma to shed rapidly, but the bolls to
rot. On several plantations, recently visited by us,
the rot will lessen the. crop at least onc-lmlf. Wo
havo boon informed this is a general thing. A gen
tleman of our acquaintance, who has recently visited
tho Bayou Bceuf, Deglaize aud tho Atcliafaiaya, in
forms us that not more than a half crop will be mado
in that section. The caterpillar has taken possession
of tbo fields and have rendered thorn perfectly barren.
In East Feliciana, we have been told by reliable per
sons, tho army worm Is very numerous and doing
great damage. It will bo recollected that some time
since, wo predicted that not more than two-thirds of
a crop of cotton would bo made, and we are now con
vinced that there will bo less than that.

Trouble with the Creek Indians.
8omo timo ago tho U. 8. Marshal for tho western
district of Arkansas, had made somo arrests in the
Creek country, and tho prisoners wero rescued from
Ids cuftody. by force, by a company of Creek Indians.
The Fort Smith Herald of tho 17lh says :
It appears that the matter was brought np before
the Grand Jury, at tho lost session of the U. 8. Dis
trict Court in Van Buren, and soveral of tho Indians
engaged in tho rescue, os above stated, were indicted,
aud wo learn that tho U. S. Marshal has mado a de
mand upon tho chiefs far the persons indicted, and tho
Indians refuse to submit to an arrest, aad are deter-
mlued to resist. Tho difficulty exists among what arc
termed the “ Upper Creeks,” who appear to be moro
bostilo to tho whites and to tbo operation or tho Fed
eral Coarts, than the Lower Creeks, who are moreen-
lightened and more docile. Tho Council, before whom
this matter la to bo laid, will moot on the 10th inst.,
when wo will hear moro of tho matter. From pres
ent appearances, however, there is little or no hope
of their submitting, as they have,as we learn, lit their,
war-fires, and bavo icut their womeq and children
away. Aa matters now stand, they may be very just
ly termed " a speck of war.”
Expcnilvc Living.
It now only requires extreme exsctlofis from land
lords to place it out of the reach of laboring people,
as well as IhoHo in moderate circumstances, to live
with any degree of comfort in tho city. Provisions
and market articles have become enormously high,
and aa the means of purchasing grow moro limited,
E rices seem to advance. A good ham cannot now be

A Well-timed Admonition—“On a certain occa
sion,” says tho Rev. D. P. Willis, “I saw a man in a
rage with a person who had treated him badly, and
that ho was giving vent to his feelings of resentment
and i.idignation in terms very unbecoming a Chris
tian. In the midst of his excitement, and while wick
ed and siuful words wpro on his lips, ono of bis neigh
bors who knew him well, rtepped up to him. and gen
tly layiug his hand upon his shoulder, said softly and
kindly, "Brother, be sober and watch unto prayer."
It wus enough. Suddenly as calmness came over
tho sea of Galileo-when Jesus arose and said—
"Peace be still,” his augry passions subsided, and he
quietly retired without another word, to repent of his
siriH, and seek forgiveness from God. He “admonish
ed him as a brother.” * A word fitly Bpoken is like
apples of gold in pictures of silver.”’
Loss ov the Brio Albemarle and Eioiit Lives—
Tho brig Tornado, McCarthy, which arrived at Ber
mudu on tho 12th inst., from Baltimore, picked up on
the 8th inst, in hit, 35 30, Ion. 73, a seamen named
William Bradly, floating on tho hatch of a vessel,
who reported himself as tbo only survivor of the
crew or tho American brig Albemarle, Capt. Curry,
which sailed from Norfolk, on the 14th inst., for tho
West Indies, with' a cargo of staves. Tho nnfortn-
nate vessel was capsized fa the hurricane of the night
of the 7th, and all on board, consisting of Captain
Carry, two mates, a cook and five seamen, were lost,
exccping the one so providentially saved by tho Tor
nado.
Death of Lieut. Gov. Burns.—By nn extra from

BaOIRokx, Sept. 30.1853.
Tho activity and flrmne»s in tho Coffee market particular
ly noticed at the doie of our lost report, wu quickly fol
lowed by a lively speculative movement, which caused pri
ces to advance in the course of a few days fully fifteen per
cent, on all descriptions except Jav*. Tills sadden rise Is
mainly attributable to the course of the markets In Brazil,
wheuca late advices are becoming more positive and cer
tain In regard to the state of the present crop and confirm-
nry of slender supplies ol good grades suitable for shipment
to the United States. The Imports Into Baltimore alone
within the past two months are fifty per cent, less than
the receipts for samo period ol 1852 : and there is reason to
believe that tho Importation Into the United States will fall
considerably short of tho usual proportionate supplies.
Unless therefore consumption be materially curtailed we
Infer that prices must rule high for many months to come.
The business of the post month has been largo, but most
of tho operations have been on speculation ; the high pri-
ces demanded by holders having checked tho usual current
of trade at this season. Of the present stock, little more
than a third remains in first hands ; about 35,000 bags be
ing held by tho operators and mostly above tho quoted
rates. Thcmarkot for some days has been feverish and
sensitive, exhibiting occasional fluctuations In price, but
closes without activity.
