Contract between the Planters of Sontli*
ern Georgia ami the llriiiniwlek Cone
pany.
An iutclligent writer in the Thomasville
tVa/chinan gives the following very adequate
explanation of the reasoning why tlie planters
of Thomas, Lowndes, etc., entered into a con
tract with the Uruuswick Company to grade
their road to the Allapaha. Speaking of that
contract lie says:
A word as to the wherefore this thing was
done. After the passage of the Main Trunk
Bill ono of two things suggested itself to the
citizens of this soetiou as necessary to Iks done
in order to secure the road—ono was tho sub
scription of six hundred thousand dollars which
would give them the control of the work, and
failing in this to obtain the co-operation of the
city of Savannah for tho same purpose. The
Jirat was so improbable of effectuation that no
ctlbrt was made. Tho second was attempted
but resulted in failure. Leading railroad men
In that city were written to on the subject, and
the oiler made to raiso the necessary subscrip
tion jointly, but we received no encouragement
whatever.
In fact tho matter seemed very cooley to bo
settled that tho iMain Trunk was to run some
thirty miles above us, and the Savannah and
Gulf Hoad to rundown Mast to tho Alanaha
and connect with the Florida lioad, thus leav
ing us a gap about sixty miles wide without
any Railroad at all. Tho Brunswick Company,
were conferred wirli, and they told us that they
were satisfied that a Railroad from tho Atlantic
to the Gulf to be profitable, ought to rim
through our section, but frankly admitted their
inability to build it without help. They told
us further, that if we would put our shoulders
to the wheel and give them such a lift as they
were sure we could, that a Road should bo built
for us—lienee the action of the meeting at
Hrunswick, hence the contract above men
tioned.
Now I most respectfully ask, if there can lie
found any fair minded man who will say. in this
view of the ease, that any fraud has been prac
ticed upon tho people of Georgia, the Execu
tive or the Legislature trilled with, or any viola
tion of good faith. Should the Atlantic A Gulf
Railroad Canipuiiy be organized, and tho Bruns
wick Company be treated with as honest men
and equals, I have no doubt but they will he
found ready to assist in carrying out the Legis
lation of the State, provided it can done without
violating their owu engagements and sacrific
ing their friends. Thomas.
We have heard of no body who blames the
people of Thomas for their action. They want
ed a road to Thomasville. They were
ready to make sacrifices to gain their purposes.
They determined, in advauee of the meeting of
the Brunswick Company on tlie only course
which seemed likely to secure them their
cherished object. That they were, to a certain
extent mistaken as to the feeling lit this city
tec very well know—though we are not surpris
ed that they were mistaken. The prevailing
sentiment in Savannah lias never been adverse
to tlie line through Thomasville. The meeting
that instructed our city Council to subscribe
$200,000 to tlie “Main Trunk" did it with the
full conviction that theThomasville route would
bo adopted—and witlfwi earnest desire, on the
part of many, that it should be adopted.
IVe have agiiiu and again expressed tlie
opinion that the policy of.Savannah in connect
ing herself with Pensucola, was to run ns near
the Middle Florida line as practicable.
But, though we justify and commend the ac
tion of the people of Thomas and Lowndes, un
der the circumstances as presented to them, it
is impossible to pronounce the same judgment
on the conduct of tlie Brunswick Company in
refusing to give the release required by the
Main Trunk charter. Colonel Lawton’s letter
shows that the provisions of the bill rendering
their release necessary were put in to make it
acceptable to Hum, under the .solemn promise of
the representatives of that Company, that tho
release would he promptly given. How then
their refusal can be justified is to us inconceiva
ble. And while we do not question but the
people of Thomas and Lowndes are able to
build their road not only to tho Allapaha but to
Thomasville, they will excuse us for saying that
tlie time will probably come when they will feel
that the State’s subscription of a million (or
even half a million) of dollars was too lightly
thrown away, when it might have been made
subservient to their purposes.

Several Persons Scalded.—Philadelphia,
May 29.—At 4 o’clock tills morning, the steam
drum of the steamer Union, of the Ericsson
Line, from Baltimore, exploded when off New

Lkcomptoh K. T, May 15, 1850. J
Main. G. IV. Deitslerand S. M. Gran,
s Lmmnct K; T.
On yesterdy I received a communication ad
dressed to me, signed by ono of you as a pre
sident, and the other as secretary—purporting
to have been adopted by a meeting of tho citi
zens of Lawrence, held on yesterday raornlug.
After speaking of a proclamation Issued by
myself, you state, that—
41 There may be no misunderstanding, we
bog leave to ask respectfully (that we may be
reliably Informed) what are tho demands
against ns; wo desire most truthfully and
carnustlv to declare, that no opposition what
ever will now or at any future tinio, bo ottered
to the execution of auy legal process by your-
sell or any person acting for you—we also
pledge ourselves to ussist you if called upon, in
tho execution of any legal process,” Ac.
From your professed ignoranco of the de
mands against you, 1 must conclude that you
are strangers and not citizens of Lawrence, or
of recent dato, or been absent for sometime,
more particularly when un attempt was made
by my Deputy to execute tho process of tho
First District Court of tho United States for
Kansas Territory against ex-Governor Reeder,
when he nmdo a speech in tiie room und pres
ence of the Congressional Committee, anu de
nied the authority and power of tills Court, und
threatened the life of said deputy if he attempt
ed to execute said process, which speech and
defiant threats were loudly applauded by some
ono or two huudred of tho citizens of.Law-
renco, who had assembled at the room on learn
ing tho business of tho Marshal, and made such
hostile demonstrations that the deputy thought
he aud his small -posse would endanger their
lives in executing said process.
Your declaration that yon will, “truthfully
and earnestly otter no opposition now or at any
future time to the execution of auy legal pro
cess, Ac.,” Is, indeed, difficult to understand.
May l usk, gentlemen, what has produced this
wonderful chiuigo in the minds of the people of
Lawrence ? Have their eyes been suddenly open
ed so that they are now uble to see thftt there
are laws in force in Kansas Territory which
should he obeyed, or Is it that just now thoso for
whom 1 have writs have sought refugo else
where? or it niuy possibly be, that you now, as
heretofore, expect to screen yourselves behind
the word legal—so significantly used hy you.
How am l to rely on your pledges when 1 am
well aware that the whole population of Laxy-
renco is armed and drilled, and the toWh fortitlcu,
when loo, I recollect the meetings and resolu
tions adopted in Lawrence and elsewhere in the
Territory, openly defying the laws and the offi
cers thereof, and threatening to resist them to
a bloody issue, and verified In the attempted
assassination of Sheriff Jones while in discharge
of his official duty at Lawreuce ?
Are you strangers to all these things. Surely
you must be strangers in Lawrence. If no out
rages havo been committed by the citizens of
Lawrence against tho laws of tho laud, they
need not fear any posse of mine, but I must
take the liberty ol executing all processes in
my bauds us United States Marshal in my own
time and manuer, aud shall only use such pow
er ns Is authorized by law. You say you call
upon the constituted authority of the Govern
ment for protection. This indeed sounds
strange, coming from a large body of meu,
armed with Sharpes rifles und other imple
ments of war, hound together by oaths aud
pledges to resist the laws of tho Government
they call on for protection. All persous in Kan
sas Territory, without regard to location, who
honestly submit to the constituted authorities,
will ever find me ready to uid in protecting
them, and all who seek to resist the laws of the
land and turn traitors to their country, will find
me aiding in enforcing tho laws, it not as an
officer, as a citizen. Respectfully yours,
J. B. Donaldson,
Marshal of Territory of Kansas.
A Richmond contemporary, to whose indus
try and taleuts our readers are under lasting ob
ligations, (the Dispatch) grows amusingly witty
over what he pungently terms—
A Shari* Business.—The fellows that have
been sent to Kansas by the Abolition Emigrant
Societies have been driving a sharp business
with Sharp's Rides. Instead of an instrument of
death, they have very sensibly converted that
remarkable weapon into a staff of life. Instead
of shootlug down Border Ruffians at eight hun
dred yards, they have shot down their brother
Yankees at 1G01) miles. Beecher, Greeley and
Co., supply the champions of freedom with
Sharp’s Rules, which the said champions box
up and send back to the East, selling them at
reduced prices, and then demanding more arms,
when Greeley and Co., purchase up the identi
cal weapons and send them again to Kansas,
where they are forthwith boxed up again, and
so forth, ad the proceeds goiug to buy
bread and meat of the Missourians, and miser-'
able whiskey to keep up their drooping spirits.
It is a sharp business of Yankee eat Yankee all
round, and truly edifying to behold.
The Documents.—The documents accompa
nying the answer of Mr. Mnrcy to Lord Claren
don’s last dispatch are said to be voluminous,
and contain accumulated proof sustaining the
original positions, and furnishing evidence de
monstrating that the officers of the Foreign
Legion were in the pay of the British Consulate
nt New York, ns late as January last, alter Mr.
Morey's last, dispatch on the subject and Lord
Clarendou’s previous disclaimers of complicity
on tho part of his officials. Mr. Dallas will also
he instructed to state that Mr. Crampton’s own
letters corroborated the testimony of the wit
nesses against him on tho enlistment trials.
Arrest of Ron hers—John' Ustick, alias
Johnny Williams, alias New York Pet, was ar
rested by officer Hicks, on Monday night, ut
Hockuday’s stables, where, according to his
own confession, he had gone with the intention
of robbing Mr. Hockaday of $(100, which lie laid
recently learned that gentleman had in his pos
session. 1 n order to accomplish tho thlng more
successfully it nppeurs he requested a friend of
his to give Mr. Hockaday a cigar saturated with
opium,which, when smoked, would produce n
deep sleep. The friend that lmd premised to
perform this part of the transaction betrayed
him, and put Mr. Hockaday on his guard, who
requested the officer to lie in wait for him,
which lie did and arrested him as lie was enter
ing the house.
It nppeurs that this is tho same man that
robbed Mr. Smith, the Kentucky drover, of
some $300, a few weeks since, hy entering his
room when he was asleep, and taking it from
the pocket of his pantaloons, which he had
taken the precaution to place under his head.
This nlllilr ho also acknowledges, and impli
cates a man by the name of Gorman who was
also arrested und is now in jail.—Charleston
News, May 30.
U. S. Mijvbrxmkxt Finances.—Tho
Tonus debt is now rapidly being 1 audited
ut the Treasury Department. After pay
ing rising seven million on this score, in
cluding interest, there will, it is said, be
a surplus ut the close of the fiscal year
on the thirtieth of .lune, estimated ut
over seventeen millions.
Snow.—At Cuvenovia, N. Y., there
was heavy full of snow Monday afternoon.
It commenced snowing about 10 o’clock
und continued to snow profusely until!
about noon. The ground, the fields, and
tlie 1 rocs, were completely whitened. The
temperature of tlie weather was freezing
cold. 'Phis is something remarkable for
this time of year.

Hu concluded by counseling firmness ou our purl:
und, when tho time does come, the North would
come out of tho buttlo as she did in tho times that
tried men’s souls—with victory perched ii)m>u her

Now, wlmt will our readers say to such a reply
to tho foregoing as wo give bolow from tho Rich
mond DLijKitch ? Will they not agree with us that
tho editor of (hat paper has committed us grievous
an “outrage” upon Col. Brewster as did Col. Brooks
upon Mr. Sumner ? Could anything bo inoro insult
ing ? Listen :
That “Col. Brewster,” who.yelled out “Liberty
r Death,” must be a very ferocious and dangerous
Jorson. Wo wonder that tho commonwealth of
dassachusotts permits him logo at lurge. “War
to the knife, aud the knife to tho hilt I” If tho
South wauts to play the game of wur, come on, und
tho North will cumo out or it as slio did out or the
tlmos that tried men’s souls I It makes our blood
ruu cold to listeu to Dlls savagerous man. Is there
no way of appeasing him V Is he obdurate to all
apologies ? We assure Col. Brewster that tho South
had nothing to do with the gutta percha cane
wherewith a Southern individual chastised a Nor
thern individual; and thou, if us vile a slander hud
boon uttered in tbo capital of any Southern Btato by
ono Southern man upon another as that of Sumner
against Butler, it would havo bceu visited in a simi
lar, possibly ,a severer mauttor. There is no ani
mosity in the SdUth towards tho North ; uo doubt of
Northorn courngo. Tho South Uoob not confound
Hie North with Northuru/m' sailers, who, we pre
dict, if they want war to Dm kite aud tlm knife to
tho hilt, wouldj'come out” of tho contest not us
the true Northern meu “out of the times thut tried
men’s souls,” but as tho Northern freo sailers
“came out!-’ of 1-awroiico tho other day—alter all
their vapoHug about Sharpe's rillos und dying in
freedom’s battles. Judging from this precedent,
we havo no doubt tho abolitionists would beat the
South, but it would bo pretty much as tho witty
and gallaut Col. Hanson, of Maryland, said, tho
Americans bout tho British in the battle of Bludens-
burg—-“in tho long ruu.”
Wo hope Col. Brewster will become culm aud no
allow hlmsctf to nnnihllato all the Southern States ol'
the Union ou account of tho walloping which a
single Southern man bestowed upou a very iude-
cout Yankee. As for old Massachusetts, let her be-
come cool, and coaso to sot herself forward as prin
cipal instructor in tho school of obedience to the
laws, seeing that she bus voluntarily und deliber
ately nullified tbo laws ortho land, ami at this mo
ment 1ms no counexlon with tho Union except os a

ami draining it of its life-blood. No such rebel, nub
lifyer amt outsider as Massachusetts has any right to
be represented at all in the United States Senate, still
less to complain that representatives of a law. violatin')
constituency suffer in their own persons from the viola
tion of the law, As to thu noncsonso about “the
tlmos thut tried men’s souIb,” it is suggeslivo of llm
shoo-trudo, which Involves tho only sort uf soles
that Massachusetts regards as of any real impor
tance. If the South “comes un,” as some of the
speakers defiantly desire her, she will “comoon”
to buy shoes, gutta jmruha canes, wooden nutmegs,
and other notlous of that kind, uotto light—horrible
thought—with thut demoniac und highfalutin ('ol,
Brewster.
Conduct of Col. Sumner Approved.—The
conduct of Col. Sumner, commanding the U. S.
troops in Kansas, meets with the approval of
the Administration, of which he has been offi
cially informed, and complimented for hia
prudence.
Land Pirates.—We have been Informed by
a gentleman who has the best opportunity of
knowing, aud In whoso statements we haae full
confidence, that there Is now, and has been for
some time past, an extensive system of land
robbery carried on in this section o( the State,
hy parties professing to be land agents. Chains
of Titles are forged from the drawee of lands'
which are vacant, and where the owner, is un
known, aud thus the rightful owner, or the
parties purchasing under fradulent deeds, will
loose the value of the land.
We give this information to warn the owners
of land, and the purchasers of laud in this sec
tion to look to their righto. We would recom
mend tho Grand Juries of the several counties
to investigate this matter, und muko examples
of the parties, if they can be identified, who
are thus seeking to prey upon the community.

Aii Adventure on*the Plains...
In the year 18—, I undertook the per
ilous journey of-'crossing tho Plains, on
my way from the Atlantic States to •Cali
fornia. Our company was composed of
nine persons. Among tho number was
Bill Johnson, formerly a hunter and trap
per of the West.
At the close of a beautiful day in May,
we found ourselves seated around a blaz
ing camp-fire upon the banks of the Little
Blue River, some two hundred miles from
St. Joseph,M issouri. Some of the company
had Spread a blanket upon the grass, and
were busily engaged in a game of curds,
while myself and Bill Johnson were eager
ly discussing the propriety of haying an
antelope hunt on the succeeding day. Wo
soon came to the conclusion that we would
spend the day in hunting, ns our train
was going to stop here several'days to re
cruit our animals. I cunnot say thut
I enjoyed a sound slumber that night,
because I was anxious that morn
ing should arrive, for 1 expected rare
sport on tho coming day. 'ihe much-
wished for morning came at last, and af
ter despatching a hasty breakfast, und
informing our comrades that we would re
turn by sunset, we dcpnrted with our ri
fles on our shoulders.
For three hours wojtraveiled in a south
erly direction from tlie camp, without
seeing any game at all; and being some
what tired and disappointed, we concluded
to seek shelter from the rays of the burning
sun, and take a Bhort rest. Following up
a ravine a Bhort distance, we came to a
sink, or hole, some twenty feet deep; the
sides, which were of solid rook, were al
most.perpendicular. Carefully examing
this curious spot, we at length discovered
an excavation in the wall, just large
enough to admit a man with ease. This
was soon accomplished, and wo found our-
sclves in an apartment about uino^ feet,
square, with walls of solid rock. This we
thought wonld afl’ordus tlie desired shel
ter, aud we were just comfortably seated,
when my compunion hastily Hprang to his
feet, saying:
“Bo silent! I hear a rustling in tlie
grass, which is probably caused bv an elk
or antelope, You stay here j” and seizing
his rifle, lie stole cautiously down the ra
vine.
lie was soon lost to view umong tlie
shrubbery which skirted tho ravine, leav
ing me alone to meditate upon the probu-
bl? cause of the noise we had just heard.
But 1 was soon startled and surprised by
seeing my companion come running to
wards tho cave, with anxiety aud alarm
plainly depicted upon his countenance.
“Inlines 1” he exclaimed, as he rushed
into tue cave.
Then ho commenced blocking up tho I
entrance with loose stones and fragments of |
rock which lay scattered around. Tills
awakened mo to u sense of the danger we
were in, as at that time the Pawnee Indi
ans were known to be hostile to tlie whites,
butchering alt who full into their hands,
To my inquiries of iiow many there were
of our enemies, my compunion replied):
“There are two, mounted on fleet hor
ses, armed with rifles und bows, and most
hideously painted.”
Our enemies were probably aware of
our place of refugo, for instead of coming
up in front of the cave, they crept cau
tiously around to the edge of the sink, and
stationed themselves out. of the reach of
our rifles, but so as to command the cn-
trniice to our subterranean retreat.—
Their persons were out of our view, but
by their shadows upon the opposite wall
we could note their nmnamvres.
They evidently thought, there was but
one ol us; but at that they did not deem
it prudent to make a bold attack in front,
for by so doing they would expose their
persons to danger-therefore they chose the
less dangerous plan of starving us to death,
compelling us to ■ surrender, or shooting
us if we attempted to escape. Thus in a
manner we were completely in the power
of these savages, unless by some stratagem
we could manage to escape. But soon
as night sut in, und spread her mantle of
darkness over the land, making our situa
tion more dismal than before, my com
panion took his station at. tlie entrance,
ready to give the savages a warm recep
tion if they made an attack.
I was not capable of enduring such
hardships as my companion, therefore he
advised me to seek that, repose I so much
needed, while ho watched the muuccuvrcs
oftlieonemy. I laid down upon tlie hard
floor of the cavern, and soon fell asleep.
L intended to relievo my companion in
guurding about midnight, but so soundly
did I sleep, that the dawn nfthc day was
just breaking in the east when I awoke.
Still at his post stood the old hunter,
without u visible trace of tatigue or suffer
ing upon his uimily countenance. With
the exception of the lone shriek of the
coyote in tlie distant hills, all was silent
without, und 1, thinking the coast clear,
was about to pass out, when my com
panion pulled me back, and in a low whis
per said:
“Do not move; now is our most dan
gerous time; but 1 will foil ’em yet, damn
’em 1” And immediately placing ids hut
upon the muzzle of his gun, he slowly
moved it through the entrance. The
Indians, who were on the look-out, per
ceiving it, mistook it for his head, and
fired, two bulls piercing the crown of the
hat. Dropping if, we supposed the Indi
ans would show themselves. Bnt not so.
My companion seeing this scheme wus
about to fail, commenced making horri
ble groans, us one in mortal agony. This
the savages took to be a sure indication
that their balls hud taken effect, and giv-
a yell of triumph, which demons might
have envied, they rushed out in full view.
“Fire!” cried my companion, aud the
next moment the sharp report of our
rifles raug through tlie cavern, while our
enemies, giving a simultaneous bound;
fell with a crashing sound upon the bottom
of the sink—each one a corpse!
Placing the (lend bodies in the cave,
we mounted our enemies’ horses, and were
soon galloping into camp, to the grat
ification of our friendsj who supposed we

advantages which tlie treaty grants to her com
merce, to have a licet in the Persian Gulf, with
an order to defend Persia against tiie enternri-*-

Washington, Muy 30, IMG*
The President sent a message to Ihe Senate
yesterday relative to Central American nlfaity,
enclosing a letter front Secretary Matey to Min-
ister Dallas, dated the 24th lust.
The letter reviews Great Britain’s pretensions-,
and says that the President, rather tliau submit
to obligations without reciprocal benefits, would
deem it his duty to propose to Congress the an-
nullmen of the treaty. He is willing, however,
to refer all questions embracing the rightful
limit of Belize, the Buy Islands uud theMoMpn-
to Territory, arising from the treaty, to eminent
men of science ia Europe aud this country.
Mr. Dallas is instructed to ascertain whether
tlie existing ditlerences can be promptly ter
minated hy direct negotiation, and it they can
not, to discuss the conditions of arbitration on
those points of difference to which this method
teems requisite and applicable ; it being assum
ed that oil other points would afterwards yield
to a conference between Mr. Dallas and Loul
Clltreudon, conducted in a spirit of cordiality
and frankness.

Albany Patriot, of yesterday, says:
Freni what wo can learn uml see, most of the
crops are in nn unusually healthy and growing
condition. Tlio late Klmwera havo refreshed
everything in thoHlmpeof vegetation, and wo
imagine the nkw atui hue are being nimbly ap
plied. Should the seasons continue good from
now out, our section will boast of tlie largest
and best crops ever made. We learn from pa
pers in tlio up country and portions of Alabama
that seasons are very good. The weather lms
been unusually warm for tlm past few days.
We hear of no sickness.

11 Tho Empress Eugenio is likely to remain an in
valid fin* life. Her feet are paralyzed, uud though
tlio physicluus hold out the hwpo that a tew days may
restore iter to loir former health,her recovery Is ve
ry problematic.”
A letter from Paris to tlio Manchester Guardian,
says:
“ You will havo remarked that In tlie accounts ur
tho ceremony of churching tho Empress, hor ma
jesty was obliged all tlm time to remain in a chair
uihiu wheels, being unable to go through I ho fa
tiguo liratty Other way. Her health Is far from sut
isfactory; flho is extremely weak, und tho cohoes or
tho Tuillortem ropcul all manner of expressions of
discontent with M. Dubois, whom, it is now ulfirm-
od, presided over the Empress' confinement iu a
most unskilful way. These things are easily and
lightly said, always innucli cases, whenever tho re-
null Is uot precisely whnt is desired. Tho Empress
Is, hy uo tnuuns ot u strong constitution; and a first
contluumout, when tlio fresh vigor of early youth la
past, Is, nine times out of ten. an extremely trying
ovent. So it has proved iu tills case, aud the recov
ery to accordingly slow uml lull of accidents, for all
of which tho yttlcluiis zeal ot courtiers and chatter
ing idle women, makes poor M. Dubois responsible.”
