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. Accident to an Erickson Link Steamer- 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 Castle, scalding four of the hands belonging to tlie boat, and four passengers. Wulllace Mauey, engineer, is supposed to be fatally injured,mid one or two others will probably die, The rest arc only slightly hurt. The boat got into New Castle, and live physi cians were brought on board to attend to the injured. The boat was then towed up to the city, and those injured taken to tlie Hospital. The boat was not Injured. Daniel Berry, and Alexander are the two most severely scalded. ^ Iron for I lie Georgia ami Florida II. H. We are grutillod to announce to our readers that the Georgia and Florida Kail road Company, through its president, has concluded an arrangement with Messrs. J’adellbrd, Fay A Co., Tor tho purchase of >,iio puts of iron rails of tho most approved T pal- turn, and the uecossury quantity of chairs and spikes. The order went forward hy the aleniuer of the 21st, and, and will probably lm delivered in Fa- vuuiuih on or before lliu 1st day of October. In the menutime tho llrst divieiou of the road will he pre pared lor the reception of the iron, so Ihut it may he completed and ready for business on or In-foro the Ural day of November. This will be grateful intelligence In nil who are in terested in this section of Hie .-bite, and especially to tint stockholders and the ciliscuiM of Albany and vicinity. It will save 12 miles of haul for the next crop, over Hie worst pari of the road between this and Americas, bringing us wilhin 21 milfosof Die depot, and it gives us a eertainlv that Hie road will 1)0 completed to the* place in time for tin- crop of next year.—Alboinj i’ahiol.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Several very eloquent speeches were de livered, all of which fully approved the course of Mr. Brooks, and a resolution was passed, to purchase for Mr. It u splendid cane. The cane is to have a heavy gold head, which will be suitubly inscribed, and also bear upon it a device of tho human heud, badly cracked aud broken. Tlie chivalry or tlie $outh, it seems, has been thoroughly aroused, On the 21«t instant quite a row occurred be tween some of tlie citizens ofBoydton, Vn., and tho students of Randolph College. 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 had fallen into the hands of the merciless Pa wife. ■? And now, though ycanS have passed, and the manly form of Bill Johnson is laid in the silent grave, l respect the mem- mory of him as a true friend and brave man in the hour of peril. Disturbance in Malta.—Serious dis turbances occurred at Malta on the even ing of the 6th instant, when a number of the Italian legion paraded through the streets of Valctta, singing songs of liberty, and using iusulting expressions towards the natives. Tho Inspector of Police, while endeavorjpg to pacify them,was mor tally stabbed, lmd only survived a few minutes. On tlie afternoon of the 8th the disturbances were renewed, and a very mutinous spirit having manifested itself their stock of ammunition imd been re moved, mid late in the afternoon the Hannibal ship, of the line, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Sir Houston Stewart, was towed into Marsamusotto luirbor aud took up a position in front, of the For Munoel encampment. Nearly all tho shops were closed throughout tho day, and much consternation prevailed when tlie mail left. J* Q. Wright* Co.tul^Pa|xr# nml 111 Chnthnm CounfjT J«H* Our forUnavanwj towards Jchb.

The Constantinople correspondent of the London Times, in reference to tlio treaty be. tween the United States and Persia, says that it was concluded under tlio uuspices of the itu*. sian Mission, und its spirit is directed itguiiM England. It pretends to be a commercial trra- ty, aud would bo so but for throe articles. The first of these says that Persia not being a mart timo nation, America will be obliged, for the 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-*- of whatever maritime nation should attack ki. The second gives Americans tlie right to have ships of war m tho Arab mouth of the Tigris. The third allows them to have a factory at Kkurnh. ^ The Londo Times’ Crimean correspondent sets down the Russian losses in and around Se bastopol at 86,000 men, while li 0,000 men mt. ished of fatigue and disease.

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.

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.

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.
