Editors—Tho Georgia fVatchman, of the 19th Instant, contains a letter from E. R. Young, Esq, relative to the reported arrangements for tho union of the Savannah and Brunswick Railroads, which de mands of mo a statement of tbe facts therewith con nected eo far as I am concerned. I do not seek controversy oil this subject—I simply, desire respect fully to correct certain statements in the letter of Mr. Yonng, and to give the.facts which led him into the error of supposing that the Directors of tbe Bruns wick oompany 44 will, in a short, timo receive from the proper source such proposals for the union of the two companies, as will meet their approbation and ac- aceptance,” and the Editors of the Journal of Com merce into the announcement that arrangements with that object in view, are about to bo consummated, entertain toward Mr. Young the most respectful re gard. I regret moat exceedingly tho publication of his letter, and tbe necessity which impelled me to correct the statement of the journals which contained it. Some time in the month of August last, and pre vious to the meeting of the citizens of Savannah, held on the 30th of August, at which it was determined to prosecute tho enterprise of a Railroad to tho Gulf, un der the Savannah and Albany charter, Mr. Young sought and had interviews with me on the subject of a compromise, or nnion ofthe Savannah and Bruns wick companies, and desired to know whether I would receive propositions from tbe Brunswick company, of which he was a Director? I replied in the affirmative, and stated that Savannah desired to cultivate friendly and commercial relations with his section of country, that she had uever refused, and would not now re fuse, to receive propositions calculated to extend these relations. He then told me that he wasonhla way to New York, and was determined to force pro positions from the Brunswick Directors. I predicted to him what would be tho result of his efforts, and tho minutes of tho proceedings of that body, published below, verify my prediction. My conversations with Mr. Young on this subject were such os ought to be held between citizens of tho same State, they were frank and ingenuous, but Ido not understand that wo were ever very nearly agreed upon the basis of compromise, as ho states, for neithor party was then authorized to carry on negotiations even for the liasia of a compromise. Upon the return of Mr. Young from New York, wc had another interview on this subject. I explained to him tho action of tbe citizens at their late meet ing ; that Savannah now possessed a charter by which she could, from tbe liberality of the powers granted in it. not only construct a road to Mobile but a branch &1bo to Florida—that by meana of tbe latter only could it be expected that any comprpmUo could, be effected, but that wo bad negotiations pending with English capitalists for liberal aid to our enterprise, and Savannah had made certain pledges to the peo ple of Florida, and that until theso questions were determined it would bo improper and embarrassing to negotiate with a third party, bnt I could see no ob stacles in the future, on our part, to a union of inter ests with the counties of Lowndes, Thomas, and De catur in a joint road from Warosboro’. Our conver sation on these topics was of such a character that determined not to have another interview witli Mr. Young, but at tho solicitation of a third party, and in order to bring the matter to a close, I addressed him the following letter, and in reply received a commu nication from him enclosing a copy of the proceed ings of two meetings of the Brunswick Company, held in New York, and a mom-trandum signed by him. It will bo perceived, from a perusal of my letter, that I expressed a willingness to receive for the Sa vannah Directors,any-propojifrotu that Mr. Young might have to make from tho Brunswick Company. In reply, I received ne propositions from that Compa ny, but a resolution offering to receive “any formal communication which citizens of Savannah may now or hereafter propose to this Company, within a period ot three months from this date.” With the memo randum of Mr. Young I bad nothing to do. He says it was written by Mr. Roberts, but I presume at the dictation of Mr. Young, inasmuch as his signature is affixed to it. No other parties having signed, It is his instrument, and I acknowledge to have received it in the Harne envelope which covered his communication to mo and tho minutes or the Brunswick Hoard of Directors. From these minutes it appears that the communication of Messrs. Yonng and Nightingalo un derwent some modification previous to its being act ed upon by the Board. What waa tho character of tho modification the minntes do not explain, and we are yet to learn. Those documents were submitted by me to tbe Board of Directors of tbe Savannah and Albany Railroad Company, at tho second meeting after tholr organiza tion. They were respectfully received, but have not been acted upon. It U a common custom for publio bodies to reoeive communications, it being respectful to do so, and yet not to consider or entertain them. What tbe Bavannab Board of Directors will do in the premises I cannot at this time indicate, but it is evi dent that Mr. Young was mistaken, and labored un der a misapprehension when ho stated in bis letter of resignation that the Brunswick Company would, in a short time, receive proposals from the proper source which will meet their approbation and acceptance, and hia tender of resignation, in order to make room for a representative or tbe allied iotoreste waa preci pitate, and I may add ill-advised. I am also free to admit that he believed negotiations were going on; bat if be will reflect that to condact negotiations be tween corporate bodies tho parties negotiating must be authorized to act, and that there were no authoriz ed agents of either company in the transactions in which he participated, he most confess that he wae mistaken In hlsimpresaionaon this snbjeot. I was surprised to see tho unfortunate letter of Mr. Yonng in the Georgia fVatchman, and still more so to find it In tbe Journal of Commerce, accompanied by an editorial statement to tbe effect that 14 arrange ments are about to be consummated between the Sa vannah and Brunswick Companies, tbe result of which is expected to be the construction of a Railroad from the Atlantio to tbe Gulf.” I took immediate steps to rectify the atetement of the Journal of Commerce, and authorised the editors of tbe Georgian, News and Republican to correct it, because In tho attitude of the whole qneetion, it wu calculated to mlalaad parties In regard to the actual condition of facta. It *U1 be peroslved upon a reference to their editorials, that each editor hu bandied the sntyect in a different way. Two of thou editorials I uw and approved, bnt the third, wbloh Mr. Young hu selected for oom- ment, I did not see. I am, however, responsible for tbe statement of (be Republican that no arrange ments have bun made for tbe consummation of the union of the two enterprises u stated by tbe Joum- nal of Commerce, and -that no negotiation! are pend ing for tiist purpose. I did also uy to the editor of the Republican that tbs Savannah and Albany Com pany oould not properly undertake negotiations with the Brunswick Company at this time, beoaose of tbe present Mate or complication ,^ He afihlre, with pledges, which they woald not and will not violate.

Both of these routes bavo boon-surveyed In preparation for any contingen cy that may arise.

The people of Savannah do not and bavo never en tertained hostile feelings to tbe Brunswick road. Mr. Bartow In his letter of February 20, 1863, expresses their true sentiments on this subject. Ho writes 44 The people of Savannah are much misunderstood if they are regarded u Inimical to the interests of any of our brethren In tho Southern part of Guorgla.— Surely it is tho interest of Savannah to allure Inter course with every portion of the State. Her whole history has been one of continued and palatal strug gle to supply by the means of art, those connections with tho country which nature denied. I will nof now recapitulate those efforts, They are familiar to all. Through every step In this prolonged labor Bhe has encountered difficulties springing from hor isola tion and her weakness. She baa felt how much tbe gronnd gained has cost her in the expenditure of streugtb, energy and wealth, while others from anoth er point of view have expected more than she was able to perform, and blamed hor laggard spirit, with an lujustlae whioh she has proudly but keenly felt.” Tho editors of tho Georgian treated this subject on tho 28th February, 1863, as follows: “ Another thing we may add, while Savannah feels no hostility to Brunswick, (we should rather Bay Northern speculators in Brunswick property,) orto - auy other town or city, she will do what she can to prevent Brunswick, or any other city from appropri ating trade and commerce whioh she can make tribu tary to herself. Savannah is punning no 4 dog in the manger ’ policy. If sho were, wo certainly should not sustain ber in it. Sho Is not striving to prevent others from building a road through Southern Geor gia—while determined to give no aid in building one herself. Ou the contrary having nearly accomplished other great undertakings which have for years task ed to the rtmost her capital and energies, slit rests not for a day. Summoning up hor strength for anoth er gigantic effort, she proclaims to the world ber de termination to build a Railroad of probably not less than four hundred miles, to bring about a connection between herself, South-western Goorgia, Middle and West Florida, New Orleans, Texas. Mexico and Cali fornia. She has determined to build this road be cause she believes hor highest and dearest Interests to be involved in its construction. If tbe Brunswick operators with a road from that place, Savannah makes no objection.” • When the Brunswick road was first projected, Sa vannah was not in a condition seriously to contem plate tho construction of a road to South-western Georgia. It will, however, bo recollected tbut Col. Seward, with a wise forecast, had the charter of the Brunswick road so modified by tho Legislature, us to empower tbe Company to construct to Savannah or Brunswick at its pleasure, thus giving indications of its probable eventual terminus nt Savannah. As far back as 1847, a charter tar a railway from Savannah to Albany was granted. This road was strenuously advocated in our city some timo previous to tho re sumption of tbe Brunswick enterprise. Savannah bad spent ber millions upon the Central, the South-west ern, tho Muscogeeo and the Augusta & Waynesboro’ roads, and had slso agreed to expend a considerable sum upon the Opelika road. Some of these having proved to be profitable enterprises, sho felt strong enough to turn her attention to the South-west, but having no charter to carryout hor designs, tho Bruns wick charter being in other hands, she availed herself of the Albany charter to accomplish her object of a connection with the South-west and the Gulf of Mex ico. Tills charter is perhaps tho most liberal ever granted by tbe Legislature of Georgia, and enables her to construct a road to the western boundary of the State, on tho Chattahoochee, with brandies in a southerly and northerly direction, boundod in length only by tho limits of tbe State. In a letter received from the capitalists of London, who have so favorably considered our enterprise, they say, 44 It is impossible, for tlioso not acquainted with the locality, to doubt that the route from Savannah is immeasurably supe rior to any other.” Tbe main trunk of this road she proposes to locate as soon as tho route to tho Alata- maha can be fixed, and immediately thereafter to be gin the work of construction. A bona fide subscrip tion of $1,000,000 bos been made by the city to tho enterprise, and large subscriptions have been and are being mado by her citizens. She has expectations of important aid from several sources. In these sho may be disappointed, but she basthciei// aiuf the power to accomplish much without it, and where those quali ties exist, failure seldom occurs. I feel no disposition and will not retort upon tho Brunswick Company tbe unkind remakB ot Mr. Young, one ofthe Directors of that Company, upon the prospects of tbe Savannah Company. I have uever written nor spoken disrespectfully of that Com pany, nor of my fellow citizens in Georgia, who are engaged in that enterprise ; nor will I now—but I have pledged myself to use all honorable means, and I will carry out that pledge, to place Savannah in connection by railway with South-western Georgia, and thus promote an identity of interests between them.

Meeting op Board op Directors, Oct. 13,1853.— Board mot pursuant to adjournment. Present—J. P. Sanderson, President; Messrs. Dongias and Ledwlth Directors. Ordered: Whereas, doubts have been expressed as to the ultimate completion of the road, which doubts have influenced subscribers otherwise well disposed, to neglect tho payment of their iuHt&lments with the promptness which is necessary to insure an economi cal andfauidprogressof the work ; Therefore, Resolved, That the Bourd of Directors see no rea son to despair of the speedy completion ot the road. That they have expended & large sum of money tar machinery, tools, carts, provisions, and other essen tials, also in locating the route of the road and in opening several miles thereof, and will immediately and energetically progress with the actual work upon tho road: and that justice to those subscribers who have paid and whose money lias been thus expended, requires the board to enforce payment from all others by all tbe legal remedies in their (lower. Ordered, therefore, That the Secretary do proceed forthwith to cause suits to be instituted against all subscribers to tbe capital stock or tills Company resi dent in Florida who nave not paid their first instal ment ; that James M. Baker aud M. W. Smith, Esq*., be requested to superintend such suit as may be brought in Columbia county under tho foregoing res olution, and John P. Sanderson and George W. Call, Esq8., be in like manner requested superintend such suits as may be bronght in Duval county, and that said attorneys, or either of them, bo authorized to re ceive subscriptions and pay tho same over to the Treasurer. And whereas, also, subscriptions to the stock of tills Company, were tnado in Savunnah under the tal lowing stipulation, viz: “ Savannah subscriptions to tho stock of tbe Alli gator and Jacksonville Plankroad Company, jnyable in instalments as called for in common with the sub scribers at Jaeksonvdle and elsewhere, and to be ox- pended on the last twenty miles of the road " ply, created, as you inppoae, an Immense sensation.

Tho Island is one of the most beautiful in tbo world; very fertile admirably culti vated, and combining in its scenery tho characteris tics both of tho tropic and temperate zones. We dis covered a ruined castle, 650 feet long, on tho summit of a mountain, besides many anciont tombs, hewn in the rocks. Tho northern part of the island is moun tainous, and covered with dense forests in which wild hours are found. Tho trip was altogether tho mo*t fantastic and peculiar I ever made. We took a tent, but lodged mostly in the cimg-qiw’a, or Government bouses, which are vory neat’ aud comfortable. Our native escort furnished us with provisions and bear ers for our baggago. On Monday the fltli Inst, tho Commodore returned the Regent's visit at Hlieudi, tin* royal residence, three miles from hero. Ho wont in state with a procession of more than two hundred officers, seamea and marines, with two field pieces and two bands. Great numbers of the natives came to witness our aray. We entered the royol castle at Sheodi, but did not sco either the young Pri co or Queen Dowager. After tbe reccptition we had a grand native dinner nt the Regent's house, I par took of thirty-ono nondescript dishes, and was then obliged to stop. Everything passed off remarkably well.

I never had such a hard day’s ■ ® ._ vn tlOUIJloOD work in my life, although wo only travelled 12 mile*. ‘ I had seven men—officers and seamen—with me. Two of them broke down completely, a third barely „ ged liimsclf along, and the others were wonilly fa tigued. Wc climbed down a mile of precipice by hold ■ ing on to the corners of rocks and roots of trees, shot a wild bom,kindled a fire and roasted his flesh, and had a grand time generally. The Benin islands are of volcanic formation, and though in lat. 27° N., tlu- vegetatlon is that which is elsewhere found near the Equator. The inhabitants—30 in nil—are English, American and Kanak—mostly runaway sailors, who raise a few vegetables which they sell to sailors. Port Lloyed is a splendid and secure harbor, and thu onh one in ail this part of the Pacific whicli will answe'r as a stopping place and calliug station tar our new Paclflo steamers, when they get under way. We can even afford to lose the chance of n station in Japan, if wo get Port Lloyd. Altogether I have employed my timo pleasantly and profitably, since entering tin service. We returned on the 23d. and found the Ply mouth in from Shanghai with the mails—my first dcwf from home is nearly seven months. We leave here tar Jeddo in throe days. The length of our stay is ol course uncertain, but as soon as I get back again to some Chinese port, 1 shall resign, and make straight across the Pacific. I have a mighty hunger to get back to Civilization. I am tired to death of barlmr- Ians, especially of the Chinese, with their mon strosities and abomitations, and I suppose tho Japan ese are not much better. What I see of the opera tion of tile Japanese laws in Loo-Choo disgusts me. 1 ‘ nn.Na bis AUTOBIOGRAPHY, CORRESPONDENCE. REPORTS, MESSAGES, ADDRESSES, AND OTHER -WRITINGS, OFFICIAL AND PRIVATE.

C., makes the following communication to tho Indejundent Press, which may be very valuable to tho cotton planters, all, or nearly all of whom bavo stained cotton this season. Let the method be test ed : Mr. Editor:— Having discovered a simple process by which cotton soiled by the late rains may be cleans ed and whitened, I make the suggestion tar the bene fit of fanners. Take a common wheat thrasher and raise the cylinder ono inch, tho box one-half inch, which will throw tho frails an inch from the cross-bar. and by placing tho cross-bars an inch apart tho dirt and trash pass through and fall in a heap near tho thrasher, and separately from the cotton. In this way I cleansed enough dirtv cotton to make Home three bales of ginned cotton in about two hours. It can be cleansed as fust as several hands can feed the thrash er. and when done, is as white ns that which has open ed since tho rain. Very respectfully, Joskph H. Black.
