What say the People on the Line t
We have ventured the opinion, that in the
present emergency, whether the Main Trunk
scheme shall fail or not, Savannah’s true policy
is to strike directly for Albany—and thence for
Mobile and Pensacola. But it is asked whether,
if this city shall have to bear the whole burthen
of the work, we are still in favor of tills policy.
We auswer no—-though not doubting lmt that
sho would bo found able to bear it, it necessity
should impose it upon her. But it is not right
that sho should be required to do it. And we
reply further that in suggesting tho Albany
route, we lmve been governed by the convic
tion that on that line alone could wc expect
important material aid.
If the people on that liae shall do for us
what the people on the Thomasville Hue are do
ing for Brunswick, that is, contract to grado our
road, or furnish subscriptions necessary to meet
the cost of grading, and tho wooden superstruc
ture, then we are for Albany and Fort Gaines
with a branch to Ktifuula—otherwise not. If
Savannah bus to meet the whole expenditure her.
self, of carrying her road beyond the limits of
Georgia, she should direct her course either to
East or Middle Florida, so ns to obtain aid from
Florida in connecting herself with the Gulf.
Our views are predicated on the well known
nuxicty of the inhabitants of Albany and Ett-
frtulsv and the vicinity of those points,to obtain
u direct railroad communication with Savan
nah, and their well known ability to contribute
to such a result.
Kuraula, on the East bank of the Gbattaboo-
ehie, has half a million of dollars (or did have
when we some time since visited that place)
to invest in such uu enterprise. The region ex
tending from Albany to the Alabama line for
the length and breadth of three counties, abounds
in wealth,—is, in fact, the great cotton growing
region of Georgia,—far excelling in productive
ness of any other. A similar belt, com
mencing with Barbour, (in which Kufaulu is
situated,) extends all across Alabama.
Now, if these people will not contribute,
in proportion to their ability, of course 8a.
vannab must look in another direction. But
if she can obtain co-operatiou from no oth
er quarter, would it not bo wise in those
to whom sho has entrusted her railroad in
terest to make the appeal to which wc have
alluded in a previous ntticlc : at all events, to
confer with the inhabitants on the Albany, and
learn what they are prepared to do.
Tho Northern people have certainly a vast
advantage over us in certain particulars. They
have the whole periodical press of the country
In their hands, and, unhappily in too many
cases, use it to our disadvantage. Our histories
have Ihjcu written tor ns, even from the little
epitome of tho school house to the more pre
tending volume intended to grace the hook
shelf. Until Mr. Bancroft undertook the histo
ry of the United States, we have Jlgured rather
as lesser lights in tho constellation than other
wise. fie has lent hts learning and ability re
cently to this great and long-needed work, and
has seemed to be more ambitious of the name
of a historian than the ephemeral applause of
a pnrtizan. Tho eiTeet of this upon ourselves
has not been immca<.. 4 *ly perceptible. Woof
the South ate almost exclusively an agricultural
people, and seeiu to he careless of the opinion
of the world. This, however, should not be.
However much we may be blessed with tho "mens
conscia recti," the enlightened should certainly
liave an opportunity of knowing us through the
medium of some impartial literature.
The knowledge of the Southern people, if it
can be dignified with tho name of knowledge,
which the English have, is derived solely from
this source. It will, therefore, not be surprising
that tho majority of the English are in profound
ignoranco of both our character and tho institu
tions peculiar to our region of country. The
British Reviews, which are acknowledged to
‘possess some of the best talent of Great Britain,
and may boast an ability and success equalled
by no others written in the English tongue,
have frequently, if wc may not say generally,
displayed a lack of acquaintance with us which
is absolutely stalling.
It has been gravely announced in an article
in one of those Reviews some year or two since,
' that, in North Carolina there existed a statute to
this effect: that, upon certain legal prerequisites
being complied with, a justice of the Peace
might issue a warrant against a runaway slavo
authorizing his capture, peaceably if possible,
bat in the most outrageous manner if necessary
An advertisement is quoted with some reference
to the statute from one of the North Carolina
papers, offering a reward fora runaway slave,
the captor being allowed tho delightful alterna
tive (il he chose to adopt it) oftaking him dead
or ulire. In another article upon Daniel Web
ster, a short time after his death—it is do
tibcratelv asserted that whenever Mr. Calhoun,
came in contact with the distinguished North
erner in debate, that the latter utterly annihilat
ed him. For all of this misrepresentation we
have to thank our friends of the North, who are
in the literary world. And what is remarkable
we never retaliate. We have never yet known
a journal even in the Stale of South Carolina,
(where to apeak of Mr. Calhoun with disrespect
was considered sacrilege) have the bad taste to
make such a declaration against Mr. Web.
ster, believing that the genius of Calhoun and
Webster and annihilation were not compatible.
But there is a stylo of newspuper literature
of the present day, which 11 read in Europe,
must give an interesting picture of our moral
condition—and suited us it is to the popular pre
judice in England, it must be greedily devour
ed. Mendacity appears to be tho most promi
nent qualification for their entrance into this
Republic of betters. They have the Editorial
Munchausen, tho correnpomlential Munchausen,
und a distinguished successor to tho Germanic
fabricator, who adds to the falsity of his own
tale tho usual correctness of the Telegraph.
Kansas by its distance lias opened ubeautiful
field to them—there they appear to havo dis.
patched the very masters of the science, for not
one single statement of theirs boa boou corrobrate

Main Trunk Charter-Letter from Col.
Lawton.
Savannah, May Id, 18/50.
R. lh Hilton Esq,
Dkar Sik When yon suggested to me this
morning that the circumstances under which
tho clauso was Insortcd in tho Bill, to charter
tho “Atlantic A Gulf Railroad,” requiring a re
lease or surrender from the Savannah, Albany
& Gulf Railroad, and tho Brunswick & Florida
Railroad, ought to Ik? given to tho publio in a
responsible form, I did not see tho necessity;
and so remarked to you at tho time. A few
moments reflection upon tho reasons urged by
you, lmve induced mo to adopt your suggestion.
Tho announcement to this community, and to
that wide belt of Southern Georgia Interested
to secure the liberal terms which the State of
fers, iu tho ebartor of the Atlantic & Gulf Rail
road, that tho Brunswick Company has declin
ed to do its part towards giving life to this
great enterprise, and bus power (perhaps) to
defeat altogether tho comprehensive design of
tho Legislature, naturally causes much surprise,
uml excites some inquiry. Why was the fate of
so important a measure made to depeud upon
the action of any other corporation? This en
quiry, I propose to answer by a simple state
ment of facts.
The loss of the Brunswick Dili iu the Houso
of Representatives was regarded as a deathblow
to “State aid” during that session; and when its
frieuds urged a reconsideration, it was simply
that it might lie upon the table as “unfinished
business;” and tbo company bo thus spared tho
moral effect of absolute defeat and rejection.
The most ardent friends of In* cnml Improve
meat were dqjoctod, and asserted roundly that
no BUI could pass tho present Legislature com.
mltting the State to a subscription or loan of its
credit to any Railroad enterprise. At this junc
ture, a joint committee of the two Houses was
raised, on motion of Mr. Spalding of McIntosh;
and by tills committee tho Bill for tho charter
of tho Atlantic and Gulf Road was reported.
On its first introduction tho Bill met with no fill
vor whatever from the more immediate friends
of the Bruuswick Road. Tho chief objection
urged was that it would run too high up to suit
their views—that tho natural result to be ox.
ported from a line, with the initial point fixed
at the corner of the threo counties of Appling,
Wayne and Ware, and tho Western terminus
limited between Fort Gaines aud tho Junction of
the Flint und Chattahoochee, would bo a rail
way far above the lino contemplated by the
Bruuswick interest. Tho friends of Brunswick
and the enemies of tho “Main Trunk” were al
most convertible terms; and the exclusive privi
leges which the former enjoyed under its charter
were brought specially to tho notice of members
whoso position in reference to the new Bill was
doubtful. Letters and maps, exhibiting objec
tions in detail, crowded the desks in the House
of Representatives, where tlic Bill originated.
Tho cry was soon raised that the State was com*
mitting itself to a long and tedious litigation, to
result, probably, in serious ultimate loss. An
installment of 20 per cent, said they, would he
paid iu und expended, wheu all operations
might be suddenly stopped by an injunction, at
the instance of tho Brunswick Company. Such
were their objections, and such the means used
to enforce them.
Then it was that several influential friends of
the Brunswick interest, away from Millcdge-
villc, were sent for, and came to the rescue.
The members of the Committee who introduced
the bill were approached by them, and such
changes proposed as would be entirely satisfac
tory to those with whom they acted. What they
desired, was to secure tho prospect of a lower
Hue than would naturally result from the wide
margin given by the bill ns it then stood. They
did not ask any change in the initial point, or
in the limits fixed to the western terminus; but
ouly that the line should tako such a direction
as would cross tho Satillu river “at or neur Wal
ker's Ferry, and in the vicinity of Wuresboro’.
This would cnahto that Company to form a con-
ucction cither at the initial point, or near Wares-
boro', as it might prefer. Some of the frieuds
of tho new hill resisted this proposal to amend;
but finally yielded their preferences to the wish
es of the majority, and to secure a union of all
Southern Gcotgia upon a bill far more liberal in
its terms, than any of those which had been re
jected by several successive Legislatures. Every
friend of tho Brunswick interest iu ami about
the Legislature, who made know his views, ex
pressed himself as perfectly satisfied with the
amended bill, and joined heartily in its support.
But we saw, that to ensure the passage of the
bill, we must go oue step further; and provide
that no portion of the State subscription should
bo paid until the two Companies before men
tioned should surrender any claim they might
have, to interfere with the location of the
“Main Trunk” Road.
This was necessary to quiet the apprehensions
of the class already described. The friends of tho
Brunswick Road had tiieir attention specially
called to this feature; and were told, that if there
was a possibility of any obstacle being, inter
posed by that Company, it ought iu fairness to
be stated at once ; so that wc should not have
our labor fur nothing. We were assured by all
of them, that tho Bill was entirely satisfactory
to tho friends of Brunswick—by one, that ho
would go on to New York for the purposo of
having this surrender arranged ut once, by
another, that one of the chiof managers of that
Company, (whose imnio appears among the Di
rectors recently elected at Brunswick) was then
iu Miliedgoville, was entirely satisfied with the
Bill, and that there would be no danger what
ever in inserting the desired clause. The Bill;
was supported warmly by every friend in the
low country, of the original Brunswick Bill,
und from them did the active advocates of tho
“Main Trunk” receive the warmest congratula
tions and heartiest thanks, upon the final suc
cess of the measure.
1 cannot believe that there was no sincerity
in all this. 1 must suppose that the moral obli
gation upon that Company and its friends to
comply with ull that was asked under tho new
charter was, at that time recognized. When
Middle Georgia and Cherokee Georgia were
appealed to to yield their objections and come
to the aid of long-neglected Southern Georgia—
to assist in passing a measure entirely satisfacto
ry to every portion of the country, south of the
Alutumulia, between the Atlantic and the Chat
tahoochee—were told that all other enterprises,
1 by common consent, were merged iu this, aud
wc asked no other lioon from the State—when
such appeals were nobly met and responded to
by the middle and northern portions of the
! State, and It.o hill triumphantly carried; was
i not this Company and its friends committed to
j the measure, und hound by every principle of
I honor and propriety to execute their part of tho
i engagement ?
J'orllaps we may be told that the Jirunswick
Company was not before tho Legislature ; and
no person there had tiie right.to bind them*
’Tis true, the Legislature did not have the
otter to surrender under the. seal of that coipora'
tion—’Tis true, no accredited agent of that
company,with power of attorney duly authenti
cated, presented himself at Milledgevillo.—But
that Company did present itself, through its
friends, asking aid, and recognizing tho powor
from which it received its charter. Those very
friends emne heartily Into this measure, which
finally became a law—tho most liberal overpass
ed by a Btato in favor of a corporation over
which it did not exerciso complelo control.
These nou resident Directors and stock holders
now think proper to arraign tho Legislature of
Georgia for its refusal to assist the Brunswick
Compuny by name—and thus only do 'thoy con
descend to notice the existence of a State whoso
polcy they determine to frustriute.
This new project was tho offspring of com-
promiff: and we were compelled to rely, to
•ome exteut, upon the honest purposes of those
with whom we toted. ir this obligation to sur
render is disregarded, a fraud will be practiced
upon the people ot Goorgla, the Executive and
the Legislature trifled with, and everything like
good faith trampled under foot
But I took up my pen to state facts; not to
discuss or condemn. Let a discriminating pub
lic fix the censure where It properly attaches g
and learn in whose fidelity they may hereafter
confide. Veiy respectfully yours,
A. R. Lawton. '

Arrival op Steamers.— 1 The steamers Flor
ida and Keystone State, from New York and

passengers and merchandise. We make our ac
knowledgements for late papers.
Walker and thoOrltlsh.
The Kingston Journal, of April 2ttth, receiv
ed at New Orleans, contains the following par
agraph :
We learn that intelllgeuco lias been received
from Gray Town, Ban Joan de Nicaragua, that
Her Majesty's ship Eurydlce, twenty-six guns,
Cnpt Tarleton, C. B., was compelled to fire on
Col. Walker and his party at that port, and 25
men are said to have been killed by the fire from
the ship. It is reported that Col. Walker at
tempted to attack Grey Town, which is the cause
of the frigate’s firing.
The People's Banner, of Monday, tho 28th, is
somewhat more explicit:
There was a rumor prevalent In this city soon
after the arrival of the packet on Friday last,
to the effect that there uad been a collision be
tween tho filibuster under the command of Col.
Walker and the British shlp-of-war Eurydlce, at
Grey Town. It appears that a demonstration
was made against Grey Town.
We imagine, says tueN.O. Picayune, that
the news which basso set agog the John
Bullism of tho Jamaica prints is nothing more
or less than another version of our own corres
pondent’s account of what took place between
Capts. Tarletou, of the Eurydice, and Tinklc-
paugh, of the Orizaba, on tho 10th ult.
This steamer arrived ot San Juan on that day
with some five hundred passeugera, principally
destined for California, only about seventy of
them being for Walker. Among the passengers
wus a man named Birdsall, or Blrchell, who Is
said to bo un ageut/)f Vanderbilt's,',the impress*
rjo of the Accessory Transit Company. As
soon as the vessel had anchored, this man hailed
a shore boat and went on board tho English
frigate Enrydice, lying in the harbor, and inde
ed an audience of the captain, to whom he sta
ted that tho Orizaba wus tilled with (filibusters,
destiued to reinforco Walker's army. Captain
Tarleton.as soon os he heard this, sent a boat on
shore to look for Capt. Scott, the agent of the
company, und shortly after despatched u pin
nace, full of armed men, to the Orizaba, with
instructions to prevent the debarkation of the
passengers. A few words from Capt Tiukle-
paugh, however, settled the matter, and the pas
sengers were allowed to proceed up the river,
leaving Mr. B. at Greytown.
Mr. and Mrs. Crisp’s Complimentary Ben
efit.—A large and fashionable audience was
present last night at the Gaiety theatre, on the
occasion of the complimentary benefit proffered
to Mr. and Mrs. Crisp by several habituates of
this elegant establishment.
Miss Matilda Heron, who had kindly volun
teered her free services to enhance the attrac
tions of the evening, played her great part of
Mariana, in “ The Wlte.” and won fresh laurels
by the admirable style in which sho did It. Mr.
Thayer, Mr. Charles, Mr. Chippendale/ and
others of the company—all of whom had liber
ally proffered their gratuitous aid to the mana
ger and his accomplished lady—filled their sev
eral parts acceptably; and Mr.Crisp himself re
peated his fine personation of Julian St. Pierre,
and was called before the curtain at the end of
his great fourth act.
Mrs. Crisp, in the afterpiece of the “Rough
Diamond.” made a great hit as Margaret.
After the first piece, Mr. and Mrs. Crisp were
called for, and appeared before the curtain,
amidst the enthusiastic plaudits of the audi-
once, and a perfect avalanche ofboquets. At
tiie same moment, one of tbo stockholders of
the theatre placed upon the stage a superb sil
ver salver and complete breakfast and tea set,
which ho presented to Mr. Crisp, with a few
appropriate remarks, to the effect that this ser-
vlco of plato was designed as a token of regard
from several of the friends of Mr. Crisp as a
man, a manager and an actor; and of Mrs.
Crisp, as a testimonial of their esteem foi her
personally and professionally. Mr. Crisp, tak
ing the gilts in his hands, said that though
when he undertook the management of the
Gaiety he had determined, if possible, to make
a good race for popularity, he had not hoped
that he should be “the winner of the plate.”
Leading off Mrs.Crisp, he then addressed the
audiencoina few words of graceful thanks,
paying a handsome tribute to Miss Matilda He
ron, and to the members of tho company, who
had so hundsomcly come forward upon this oc
casion with their valnable and efficient aid. He
then retired amidst the renewed and continued
applause of the house.
The Dispute about Central America.—We
learn with some little surprise that there are
people who give credit to and are alarmed by
the statement of a United States journal, that
the English and French Governments are about
to send military forces to Ceutrrl America, for
tiie purpose of expelling the “ Filibusters,” who
are now, like the Morgans of another century,
attempting to dominato in the Spanish main,
So far as tho British Government Is concorned,
there is not a word of truth in the allegation;
and we give the French Cabinet credit for more
prudence than to incur such useless expense.
The question between the Euglish and the united
Ttates’ Cabinets, as to the Clayton-Bulwer trea
ty, remains in statu quo. The British Govern
ment is willing, and most desirous, to refer all
the points in dispute to arbitration; it places no
limitation on the selection of an arbitrator, and
it will be bound by the decision of whoever is
choseu.—English paper.
Tiie Betrothed of the Princess Ma
rt.—The Hamburg correspondent of the
Brussels Independence writes:—“The
news which we lmve received from Stock
holm leaves no doubt as to the approach
ing marriage of Prince Oscar, second son
of the king, with tho Princess Mary of
Cambridge. Tho Prince will leave al
most immediately with the queen mother
for Paris. From thence ho will proceed
to London, to make a somewhat pro
longed stay, und will complete the arrange
ments for the projected union. Tho for
tune of the Princess of Cambridge amount
ing only to about £ 3000 a-year, it is be
lieved at Stockholm that at the next meet
ing of the four chambers of the Diet the
K ing will ask for an annual grant for his
son, in order to enable that prince to
worthily sustain his rank and that of his
court. This project alrcudy excites much
public attention.”
Tub Presidential Canvass.—A Wash
ington Jetter in the New York Times my a:
—An effort is making under the lead of
Sam. Mcdary, Senator Bright und other
Northwestern Democrats, now here, to
effect a perfect union among tho Delegates
of that section to the Cincinnati Conven
tion, to cast its votes as a unit for Pierce
or Douglas, whichever shall prove the
strongest. Michigan alone holds out for
Buchanan. Even this unanimity against
Buchanan destroys all reasonable hope
of his nomination, and Pierce’s friends
claim to-night that it gives tho latter the
lead again.
Politeness of Railroad Officials.
The editor of the Charleston Index,\n passing
u censure upon the tearing of some officials on
the “Georgia Road ” pays a Jost compliment
to tbo politeness of the conductors in the em
ployment of the Central and Wayneslmirow
Companies. He remarks:
To the credit of the State it can be said, that
there are railroads in Georgia, whose Conduc-
■ ■■ ■ ■ ■■ IM I J !■', 1 I

KK kca tor the politeness with which they

vannah, gofng ana rcturing, both on the Cen
tral and Waynesboro roads, though a strangei
to the Conductors aud baggage Masters—no
oomplaint can be made against them for want
of courtesy to passengers. If the Conducts
asked foryour .ticket, ft was politely done; If he
or any of bis attendants passed through the can
there was a kind tuaeifer In modo, that made
air feel that these gentlemen were ready to do
all in their power to make the time pass ofi
pleasantly. From the managers of these roads,
and in fact from every other, in the State, on
which we have had occasion to travel, theGeor-
gla road excepted, the same urbanity was ob
servant In the Conductors and other officers con
nected with the cars.
A Very Singular Affair.—A very
curious instance of confusiou has taken
place in a family iu Lumber street, on
Arbor Hill. A mother and her daughter
were both confined on the same day, each
having a little son. in the bustle of a mo
ment both babies were placed in a cradle,
and to the confusion of the mothers, when
the youngsters were taken from the cradle,
they were nimble to tell which was the

From Washington.
8ptvlal Di.-quttch to tho N. V. Tribune.
Washington', Friday, May 10,18.70.
It is distinctly intimated that the President
intends to veto the bills for improving the Ft
Clair Flats and the removing of the obstruction^
ut the month of the Mississippi.
The interesting question ol veracity between
Mr. Crumpton ami Mr. Clayton occasions much
comment. Of course our side must be r.ght.
(By Telegraph to Tho Courier an t Enquir-.-r.)
Washington* Thursday Night.
There is nothing conclusive in the ireign di»
patches received here. Mr. Dallas wiles that a
long argument had been adopted iu the British
Cabinet, ou law points involved in .Secretin-
Marcv's demand, ending with u refusal to
call, but was reconsidered. Efforts are still ma
king to prolong tiie correspondence.
From Our Own Coi respondent.
Washington’, May 1G—Mr. Buchanan is in
dignant at Lord Palmerston uud Earl Claren
don^ reiterated misrepresentations ns to the hi
bitration. He says that the whole character »i
their occasional and accidental reference to tbi*
subject warranted him iu supposing that the ob
ject was to sound our Government us to iu
views and not submit a specific propo rtion. As
evidence, bis playful manner.is cited, in which
he turned such conversations, being detei mined
not to regard tho suggestion ns meaning any
thing till the British Government became com
mitted by a distinct offer. According to hi*
view and that of others, the mode iu which it
is represented even now, could uot 1* acted up
on by tho Senate.
CHARU&rON, May wTv! M.—Cotton—We mav
no change to note in the market for thi- article —
Tlio inquiry to-day was pretiy lair, und sa!e- lotto
extent of near 1799 bales, at unaltered rates, wm-
offucted. Prices range from t*L to 11 >4 rents.
