CoYtna’s Cutbssut Lnrrsn."—We have received,, with a request to puLlisli, u long review of Hr. Cuyler’e letter to the Railroad Meeting held some months since nt Cutlihort. Its extreme length Induces us to divide 11 into several numbers. The first cukes its appearance today. All will' be em braced In our next iwr% issue. They are veil written, and will doubtless command an iilenslvc perusal. As regards Hr. Cuyler, we leave him to take are ul himself—as we know of no one better capable of doing It. Our columns, of coarse, us at his service if he shall think St to avail hlmieiret them for a reply. " .upward, would bo subscribed to the road by the people of Alabanta and Bahdolph County | and (Ortho purpose of consulting ph this subject the meeting was held. It appears that there tyere three competltoia that desired to be connected with tho projected Railroad, via i The Brunswick Company, that proposed a connection over their line through Albany to -Brunswick; the Savannah, Albany and Gulf Company^- thatproposed a connection oyer their line through Albany to Savannah, and lir. Cuyler, In bcbalr or the South Western Railroad, who proposed a conuectlen at Outb« bert, via Amcricus, and thence over the South Western and Central Railroads, to Savannah. Had the letter of .Hr. Cuyler beonjert to per. Ibfm its office witb the cltlaons to whom It was addressed; and if, Influenced by. Its arguments, the people were willing to aid in placing shackles on their own Industry, by which they were constrained forever to transport their suiipUes and the products of their labors dis tance or from eighty to one hundred miles ftu> ther than what would seem to be their nearest and legitimate route—why, it was their own business, and the public bad veiy little concern In it But when this letter is published in the ual newspapers or Savannah, aud sent broadcast into tbe commercial world, its argu ments nut only uureluted, but receiving, as It would appear, the sanction of the people of Savunuab, und stamped with the impress of being the voice of tbe city, its publication, to my mind, is fraught with incalculable mis chief. Cotton in Montuoiury, Ala.—^ha -Mont gomery llfuif of last Tuesday says: There Is already a Silling off In the receipts of cotton hero, though we presume there will be still a considerable Influx for a week Or two lo come. One Diet, however, may be relldd on: limy planters are through with their crops already, while the large majority will be done picking within a week. The crop Is very d»it,and within a month the fact will be so demonstrated, that' speculators will be unable to devise theories to keep cottondown. When >e couslder the abundance of money in tbe mild, now—the high prices of all descriptions of property—tbe immense and growing de nied for cotton—the undoubted shortness of lbs present crop—we are surprised that plant- in should sell at present prices.

It un a dervalues the property and resources of a large part of oar citizens, und serves to irritate the already not very amiable feelings existing be* tween country and city. Savannah is made to appear to be quarreling with her bread and butter, and smiting the pap that gives her suck. It is an evident fling ut the Savannah & Gulf Railroad, and as the city of Savannah Is interested in both the Central and Savannah & Gulf Railroads, it presents the deplorable pic* ture of a "House divided agaiust itself.” With capitalists abroad,this letter would have the effect of crushing completely the credit, and thereby stopping tho progress of the Sa vannah and Gulf Railroad. It iufurms us "that fifty miles of that Rood is nearly completed, that there is a thud sufficient to carry it tweu- ty miles further; that there is yet one hundred and Ally miles more of this terrible pine bar reu to be passed before the Road reaches Al bany; und, after getting there, there is rather the dread that there is nothing beyond Albany that will ever pay the expenses of the Road.” Mr. Cuyler gives the experience of the Cen tra) Railroud, und says ; "After 18 years of the daily passage or the Railroad Cars for 80 miles through this terrible pine barren ‘belt,’ the Central Railroad Company does not realize enough irom thisportiou of the Road to pay the expenses of keeping it up.” He informs uathat the city of Savannah has put a million of dollars iu the Havuuuuh and Gulf Railroad, and that nothing less than two millions of dol* lore will carry it to Albany, and that ihit turn mutt be raised indtpendent ef Savannah. By such a deplorable picture of uflitirs it must be apparent to the most humble tux-payer in Savannah that the million of dollars put in the Savannah and Gulf Railroad by the city is ir* retrievably sunk, aud that hereafter there la an annoal tax fofover entailed upon the city of seventy or eighty thousand dollars, to be levied upon the tax payers to meet the Interest It may be urged that this sum could be easily raised by a city as largo as Savannah, yet w>me*unfon<een occurrence might happen; a conflagration, such as that which burnt one third of the city of Charleston, or that which once swept away nearly the half ol Savannah, might again,occur; then this tax would be found oherous. So will argue capitalists abroad holding the bonus of the city, and they will be. gin to reflect, that this sum, together with its other liabilities, is a large indebtedness for the city to carry, and they will become timid Guardians and Executors will begin to consider whether it is a safe investment for their wards and the estates, they represent, and they will begin to hesitate.'"‘£nd the last, but not least of the mischief resulting from tbe publication of this letter will be, that the credit of the city will be sapped and shaken. My purpose, Sirs,is to strip this document of its gaudy trappings, to cost them to the right and left, and expose its rottenness to the public view. I will show that this "terrible pine bat* ren belt” is the most valuable agricultural por' tionof our State, and that the Savannah, Al bany add Gulf R.

Gllngman to a committee of citizens of Charlotte, North Carolina. Ashbvilu, N. C., Oct. loth, 1888. Gentlemen r When I waa last In your town I stated to you and to your friends that though I might not bo able to accept an invitation to meet the citiszens of your county boron the Prezldentlal election, yet I would certainly en deavor to do bo alter that event, provided Fremont should ctrry a majority of the votes. Though I do not regard that contingency as probable, it la still the part of wisdom to be prepared for it, I now write to yon, therelbre, to say, that If aU things suit, 1 will bo with «.——n. Norami*,, That i could be selected , and preparation made, and still would precede by a few days, ■' e assembling of our Legislature. Should the black republicans prevail, there ts uo spot of ground 1 would so soon stand on as In that town where the lint Declaration of Independence was made, and in that ooonty which Lord Cornwallis (s man well qualified to express a correct opinion) prononuced " the most rebellious county in America." Ourancestonhaulsr greater difficulties to encounter than we are now compelled to meet. The Sontbera States have a population four times as great as all the colonies then bad, while the beat part of the North, I mean the men of courage, and honor, acknowledge tho justice of onr cause,and an with ua in foaling. Instead of having to make governments 3e novo, wo bar* organized State Sovereigntlea to act at once. I hold, however, that the condi tion of things which may possibly occur, would not only Justify the action of any single State but even authorise individual resistance; for any toe white American might well refuse to be so degraded as to become tho slant of the Uur'lororarlrera 8 mado that revolution to maintain the equality ts men, and communi ties likewise. They resisted the payment of a paltry tea tax, because ita Imposition was an assertion of the right of the British government to rule them. That government waa controlled by a body of manly, high-toned men;andyet our ancestors refused to accept even them for mastere. But the leaders among onr enemies to my certain knowledge, the meanest Ur. Cuyler says: “If you will cast your eya on the map of Georgia, at the place where th 31st parallel of North latitude crosses the Flint river, io Decatur county, and thence ran It East on that parallel to the sources of the River Buwannee, lb the county of Clinch, then Bonth- wardlytothe Southern boundary of tbe State, and along that boundary to a point on tbe St. Hary’s river, distant twenty-live miles from the town of St. Hary’s, thence iu a direct line to a are, n my dhwu auuwioug*, we hicmkm and most contemptible creatures upon earth, excepting only these In the South that an willing tu be governed by them. ‘ inalr — A few venaTpreseee that hoped to fatten on the spoils ef government as corrupt as Fremont would establish, and a few traitors to their sec tion and race, would attempt to produce a di version in favor of onr enemies, but they might receive awlft attention tom our Committees of ivernmtnts could take .ivannah, thence up Savannah river to the lower part of Burke county, thence Westward to Flint river iu Dooly county, aud thenco on the Eastern margin or tho Flint to the place of beginning, the eye will embrace an area of laof equal to one-thini part of the whole area nd Georgia. If you will calculutethe slave as well as tha white population, and the production of cotton, within the area io embraced, you will see that the slave population Is not a twenty- third part of the whole—that the white popula tion la not a tenth part of tho whole ofthe popa-' lation of the State, and that the cotton Is not one sixteenth of the whole product of Georgia. The region referred to la that great pine belt which Intervenes between the sea coast and the mixed oak and bickoiy lands of tho Interior, and Western and Southwestern border of the State. It taa region, which, by reason of the sparseness of Ita population, the scantiness of iu prudoetloa, the general sandy nature of ita soil and IU numerous unbrldged streams, has presented a formidable barrier to direct laud communication betweeu.the wealthier portion* of our territory and the nurta-of commerce on the ocean. ltd extent la tom eighty to one hundred and fifty miles in breadth, and It will avenge two. hundred miles in length tom East to West."

A proper feeliog la already pervading tbe masses ul the South. Tho Idea thrown out in some quarters, however, that we should manifest our resistance only by refining to hold office under the new administration, u an abanrdlty. We should thereby net only deprive ourselves of the benefit of a government which wean taxed tosupport.butweihould assume the contemp tible altitude of tho Aatatlo, who unnslatlngly, and in sullen silence, submlu to oppression and torture. Equally prepootexooa la the idea relsned to iu the North, that we are threatening to revolt agalost the government. Thosethathaveatoed by the Constitution are entitled to hold the or ganisation of the government It waa decided by the Parliament that James the Second, by violating the Constitution, had abdicated the government, and left the throne vacant. So those States that refuse to obey tho Gom-tlta- tion, are to beheld as having gone out of the Union. Let Massachusetts. New York and oth ers stay out or It, and at the same time low the use of Southern tolghta for their ships, and Southern purchasers for their manufactures and imports. When their intercourse with ns Is placed on tho footing common between foreign and hostile governments. If they do not find sufficient consolation In the Idea that (hey are freed in their consciences tom all responsIbUl- ’ for the sin aud turpitude of Southern slavery, jen let them, by force of arms, get hock into UuUnlon If they can. With respect to those personi who are for resistance, but who say that wo oagbt to wilt for an overt act, and in tha mean time allow our enemies to take possession of tho govern* ment, and obtain theoontol of tho Army, Na vy and Treasury, they manifest the bright of fatuity.
