The Resources of Georgia. This is a moit'prolific theme, and one lo which the attention of our citizens ought to be more generally directed. In noticing this subject, we are rather actuated by a hope that we may in duce others of greater experience, to direct their gttention to it, than by the expectation of what we can accomplish. Tltere is, perhaps, no part 0 f the civilized globe, whose resources are more completely undeveloped, than the State ofGeor j,atand indeed the entire South. Her people, heretofore have been so well satisfied with the j ar ge profits which the growing of cotton pro. duccd, that they have, thus far, almost entirely neglected every other profitable employment- The insatiate desire to make more cotton still rage* i ant l under the very defective agricultural ijitem heretofore pursued, much of the best cul tivable lands in the State have been exhausted for the want of a rotation of crops and proper management; and consequently rendered i ncapa iiie of producing such a return for the labor ex panded on them, as would render a fair interest on the large capital employed. We believe, therefore, that in many parts of our State the time has come, when a more ox. tensive attention to its mineral wealth would he beneficial, both to those who were thus em ploye.!, and the others who continue to attend to agriculture. Nor could the objection arise which partially presents itself with regard to the manufacture of cotton and wool, for we have al ready the two principal and most costly items in mining investments—the land which contains it and the laborers to work it. All, therefore, that would be needed, would be the small a mount of capital, necessary to erect suitable buildings and purchase machinery. This a mount is so trifling, when compared to the pro fits realized, that it could be very easily obtained —and if a single individual did not possess it, a company could be formed with sufficient means to insure success. The profit from such invest, ments would be large and certain. It is a known fuetthat a large portion of the mountain region of Georgia, teems with mineral wealth, easily to be obtained, and certain to return a large pro fit to those who shall undertake its preparation formarket. Would it not, therefore, be better for those planters, whose lands are now yielding but small crops, owing to their exhausted state, t) direct thcii attention to these sources of wealth, and thus relieve those who continue to make cotton, from the evil of over-production? Besides, the entering upon such pursuits, would render the growing of grain more profitable ; for thosa who were engaged in the uiines would re quire sucli for consumption, and although more would not probably be used than at present, yet there would be fewer producers. This would consequently he beneficial to the farmer ; and thus, whilst those who were engaged in the mines would be profitably employed, the benefi cial effects resulting from a diversity of pursuits would be favorably felt by all classes of the com munity; and our people less exposed to ruin from a too great a dependence upon the fluctua ting price of one single commodity, for their pecuniary prosperity, as they now are upon that of cation. It affords us pleasure to see that our capitalists arc turning their attention to the establishment of Cotton Factories in different portions of the State,an investment that has always, without a single exception, we believe, been profitable, paying an interest of front 20 to 50 percent.— Indeed wo cannot sec how it can he otherwise, as long as they are properly managed, and have as now, a difference of nearly or quite two cents per pound in the expense of transportation, &c., in their favor, in the cost of the raw material, which will always enable them to compete suc cessfully with the Northern manufacturers. We have, long since thought that the want of a diversity of pursuits was hanging upon the South like an incubus, and have often scon no u it-spirits fa ii for want of a iittie iieip, to carry out enterprises that would have been of lasting benefit to the community, merely because they had some new feature about them. But wo re joice to see that anew era as it were, is about to burst upon us, when besido tho“ gee and haw" of the farmer, may be heard the sound of the mechanic’s hammer, the hum of the spindle and the clatter of the loom—aye, and tho cheerful songs of a prosperous people. Every Cotton Factory erected in our midst vve believe to he a tower of strength to our institutions ; which by the way, need all the help they can get at present —and we look upon those who engage in such smterpriscs ns having done the State some ser vtce. It docs not ‘require optics sharp we ween’ to perceive the beneficial results which are al roady shewing themselves in our own State, from tho partial attention already bestowed in developing Iter resources, and diversifying the pursuits of her citizens. May she adopt the motto of “ Excelsior," until she become the Em pire as well as the “Model State of the South.” Plowing by Steam. —The Bangshirc (Eng ) Journal states that a patent for a steam plow Pas been taken out by the inventor, Mr. James - Usher, of the firm of Ushcr&Co., of Edinburgh and the machine will shortly he before the pub. be. The machine is constructed to plow six furrows at once, thus doing the work and sav the expense of stx double horse plows.- i great weight of the machine, which is es hrnated at three tons, may bo thought an objee bun ; but this is in a great degree obviated by Ihs uso of a large roller, which is so placed in the centre ns to balance the machine, and pre vent tho wheels sinking. The cost of the en tire apparatus is estimated at £3OOO. IFF Senator Gwinn, of California, has ad dressed a letter to the Secretary of the Treasury on the subject of the coast survey,channels and burbors of California, lie urges the estublish mcnt of a light.house at Point Conception, and ’be necessity of a Marine Hospital at San Fran eiscrij Stockton and Sacramento. The harbor °f San Diego and Trinidad Bay, he says, should be surveyed at once. Tho necessity of a mint 01 Francisco, with branches at Sacramento Ir, d Stockton, is also urged UP The Passions, like hoavy bodies down '"P hills, once in motion, move themselves, V ' l * know no ground but the bottom- Savanhand Augusta Kailroa«l. Os all projected or completed Railroads in Georgia, none, in our opinion, is more important than the one proposed to connect Augusta with Savannah. The only means of communication between these places, is the Savannah river, which is often so low as to preclude navigation, and it is ofthe utmost importance to the citizens of Georgia that their facilities of business and social intercourse should be augmented to the farthest possible extent. The people of Georgia have lutely turned their attention and devoted their means lo the establishment of mannfactories and their success has been commensurate with the efforts which they have made. A spirit of enterprise has been awakened among them, the influence of which is felt in the marked improvement of all classes of society, and the results of which may be found in the increased wealth ofthe planters and of those engaged in the business ofmanufac luring the staple products ofthe soil. The in habitants ofthe State of Georgia are distinguish ed for their hospitality and for the nobility of their natures, and when once roused ton sense of their inferiority as respects great works of interna l improvement, they put forth all their energies to raise themselves to a level with the most favored of the sister States. They need but to be convinced of the feasibility and impor tance of any work which will add to the wealth anil welfare of the community, to cause them to contribute of their substance, sufficient for its accomplishment. The interests ofthe public demand that a good Road should be built to connect these two important cities of Georgia. Such a road will probably cost $600,000, and should be the best road yet built in the Southern States. It should be a perfect Road, in order to sustain the com petition which it will have to undergo, and the Directors should avail themselves of all the im provements which experience in Road-building lias efforded, for thus they may be enabled to construct the best, and at the same time, one of the cheapest roads in the country. The estimated cost ofthe Road, $12,000 per mile, is much less than that of most ofthe prin cipal roads in the United States, and the through which it will pass is amply struct it, even should its cost exceed the esti mate made by the Engineer. The citizens of Savannah, should subscribe $400,000 and the remainder of the subscriptions required to ena ble the Directors to enter upon the work, may he readily obtained in Augusta and in the coun try to be benefitted by the construction of the Road through it. The Georgia and Central roads may be called upon to contribute to the stock, and when it becomes evident that there isa determination on the part of the Directors to build the road, the deficit in the subscription will be made up and the work may be comtnen ced with ample means for its completion. This Road will he of immense benefit tothe Stato and its seaport town, and still more so to the city of Augusta. Nearly all the proposed roads in Middle and North-eastern Georgia, point to Augusta as one of their termini. As she be comes the nucleus of commercial industry and enterprise, so will she increase in population, wealth and importance. Her progress is in evitably upward and onward, and the conscious ness of her high destiny should induce her to provide, by giving her aid, for the speedy and certain transposition of her products to the ocean. Some other means should be afforded than the uncertain river, and the foreign road which bears away the riches of Georgia and pours them into the lap ofthe commercial em porium of South Carolina. Let the citizens of Augusta have an eye to theirovvn interests and contribute liberally towards the construction of the Savannah and Augusta Railroad.— Horn’s Railroad, Gazette. Discovery in Oregon.— The California pa. pers mention the discovery of a new and fine enteranco to the mouth of the Coulutnbiaßiver. It is called the Southern Pass, and Inis hereto fore been represented to he impracticable. A French ship passed recently through it, and found six fathoms as the least water. Divorce. —The Legislature of Kentucky have passed a bill giving the Chancellorof Louisville jurisdiction to entertain a bill for a divorce on the part of Sallie W. Lawrance, against her husband, Timothy B. Lawrence, of Boston. Board of Mexican Commissioners.— The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia North American, writing on the 19th inst., says : The Board of Mexican commissioners will ad journ in about a fornight until next fall. They have received claims to the amount of nearly sl2- 000,000, and have disposed of a greator number of cases in the same period of time than any former commission. Without pretending to speak from any particular knowledge on the subject, I should not be surprised to know that the appropriation under the treaty covered the great bulkot the claims winch will be allowed. This opinion is ventured upon the extavagant and extraordinary character of many of the larg est claims, the representatives of some of which seem to think that the proportion of allowance will be regulated by the extent of the demand. The present Comissioners hahe adopted a wise and satisfactory rule, in requiring a written opin ion to be filed in every case, so that claimants may see the principles upon which each deci sion rests. Iron columns for buildings are much better than granite. \Y hen healed, in case of fire gra. nite columns split and crumble, almost like sand, under the least application of water. California would make forty-five States as largo as New Hampshire, and two hundred as large as Rhode Island. A pail full of ley, with a piece of coppejas half ns big as a hen's egg, boiled in it, will pro duce a fine nankeen color, which will not wash out. This is very useful for tho linings of bed quilts and comforts, Ac. The next Legislature of Virginia cleats a United States Senator. Already the parties are preparing for a vigorous ernvass throughout the iStatc Polar Origin of the Tides.— The Scien tific American says : “The source of the tides is to be sought in the great reservoir of ocean round the Southern Pole. This polar reservoir is agitated on opposite sides by the moon in its alternate lower and uppertransits, and by the sun in less degree. Here the great central agi tation seems to commence, and hence on all sides it seems to flow northward. From the South Pole this great agitation flows into the Indian Ocean; and proceeding northward, the great tide-wave strikes with violence on the shores of Hindostan, and finaly in the mouth of the Gan ges, where it expends its force on the shores in the form of the well-known and terrific bore ot the Hoogly. The Atlantic, in like manner, receives from the southern reservoir its great wave of tide, which passes northward with im petuosity, and expends its force on the shores of Britain and North America; where again it be comos the enormous steam-tide of the Bristol Channel, and the destroying surge of the Bay of Funday, so wall known to all the mariners From the South, in like manner, the Pacific should receive its great tide, were it not beriea ded out by innumerable submarine steppes, and its thousands coral reefs, and its myriads of hap py islands, to whose calm seas no propagation of this great borizontal.actiting wave can gain access. It is by depth and uninterrupted bot tom only that a great wave like the tide can force enterence; it is only the small waves raised by a local tempest, that travel the surface. An action like the tide, extending uniformly to all depths ofthe ocean,cannot be propagated on a superficial coaling alone. The tides are built out of the Pacific by submarine works, and en ter it alone aud with difficulty by the eastern side of America, where diffused and rapidly di minishing, the tide extends a certain way through the more open parts of the sea, contin ually diminishing in intensity. In the North Pacific wo have neither the bores of the Hoog ly nor the terrific tides of a Bay of Funday. I" Rom Mexco.— We have received dates from the city of Mexico to the 23d uit. A revolutionary movemontin favor of Santa Anna had been made at Jalasco, but the conspira cy was discovered and suppressed. The Monitor complains bitterly ofthe outra geous conduct of the Americans settled on the Rio Grande. It says that the Government of Mexico should call tin the United Stales to re press the troubles which these neighbors cause. The Slate of Mexico has imposed a tax of a shilling per month on each inhabitant of the State. It is intended to raise the whole revenue ot the Stale in this manner. feenor Baltasar Furlong, who rendered impor tant services during the American invasion, is about to be appointed Governor nfPuebla. Congress has establishment to take especial cognizance ofeverything relating to agriculture, commerce, mining, colonization and roads. Fhe Indians continue their ravages in Duran go. They have lately committed a groat many murders. The cholera is raging at Michoacon. Tennessee. —A large meeting has been held at Columbia, 1 enn , at which, resolutions in fa vor ofthe Southern Convention were adopted and the action of the Legislature in relation to it was condemned. A meeting has also been held at Memphis, approving the Convention, and tendering the public buildings of the city should it be determined not to go to Nashville. The Cherokee Nation — The National Council of the Cherokecs has been occupied for several weeks in devising some plan of paying their narional debt, amounting to SIOO,OOO. The history of this people is interesting. Their nation is divided into eight districts, each furn ishing three Representaitves and two Senators to the National Councils. For several years the nation hassustained twenty-two district schools, and proposes soon to establish an Orphan asj 1 um and two iarge National schools. About $22,000 are expended by Government annually for the support of common schools, in which the Christian religion, (farming, some of the useful trades and ordinary literature are taught. Most ofthe Cherokees have more or less education, and are extremely ambitious to rival their white neighbors in every art.—Tablequath, the Cher okee capital, is a pretty village, containing som e good brick dwelling and a court house. John Ross lias been the Cherokee chief since 1823. He is wealthy, and lives in goad style. His annual salary as President is only SSOO. Mem bers of Council are elected for two years, and receive $3 a day during session. Tho Chero kees are advancing rapidly, and may at no very distant day desire admittance into the Union. Improved Cotton Gin.— John Dußois, of Greensboro’, Ala., has procured a patent for an improvement of tlie Cotton Gin. It consists in an arrangement of the ribs, by which most of tlie motes and trash are removed by simple action of the Saw, and lodged in a box above the brush; the remaining motes and trash being removed as in tho ordinary Gin.—thus making a very super ior sample of cotton. It is as easily kept in Or der as any other Gin and works as fast. Testi monals to its worth are given hy many respect able planters who have used it—among them, T. M. Johnston, of Greonsboro’, and R. A- Baker of Summerfield. The latter says, “the difference in the quality of Cotton will soon pay for a gin." Improvement. — In consequence ofthe decline ofthe English wollen trade for the last few years, attributed to the superior color and finish ofthe fabrics, of Belgium and France, a superiority that has been sensibly appreciated by the im porters in this country; various efforts have been made in England to bring its cloths up to the continental standards. A process has there fore been invented called the Sterioloic. The wool is better picked nnd washed. Indigo is used for the foundation of the dye, instead of logwood and the finish is effected by a machine of superior character to tho Belgian. Tho cloth thus produced, is said never lo lose its glossi ness, the “feel" is soft, Mnd if wet, I'oses nothing of its lustre. . Mexican Octrage— The New Orleans True Delta, of the 19th inst. says : “By the arrival of the steamship Yatch, from the Brazos, we are credibly informed of an outrage, perpetrated recently at Matamoros, by the Mexican nuthori. ties, on the persons anJ property of American citizens, which calls for the prompt interference of our government. By the treaty of peace be tween Mexico and this country, after the close of the Moxicon war, our readers are aware that all goods imported into the country during the war, on which duties were paid to the American government were permitted to be sent to any part ofthe interior. Largo shipments of tobac- I co had been made during the war, to the ports ; of Matmoros, Tampico and Vera Cruz. A por tion of the tobarco, lying in store at Matamoros at the close of the war, was purchased by the extensive mercantile firm of S A. Bidden & Cos. of the latter city. Some time ago those mer chants sent a portion of their stock to the great fair of San Juan• All the formalities requisite to secure its transportation uninterrupted through 1 the interior of the country, had been attended j to, every package having on it the government stamp. While the train was passing through j Saltillo, the Judge ot that district, a lellow nam ed Gomez, who is to be one of the most notorious gamblers and swindlers in Mexico, seized on the tobocco, and by his own judg ment confiscated tho lot! Knowing his decis. ion would be reversed, if the subject were brought before the higher tribunals he denied the American merchants the right of an appeal. This was not all; for in addition tothe illegal confiscation of the tobacco, he fined tho Ameri can merchants some $27,000, and sent a special agent to Matamoros to collect il,witli i list ructions that if the fine was not promptly paid, to im prison the parties. Beldcn & Cos. of course pro tested, in due form, against such high handed outrages. It was no use. Their establishment was closed up, and an order for their arrest and imprisonment forthwith issued ; and to save themselves from a dungeon, Messrs. Bcidcn & Cos. were compelled to abandon their property and business, by crossing the river to Browns, ville. We learn that the determination of Mr. Beltlen was to go to prison, relying on his gov ernment for reparation and redress, and it was only through the earnest solicitude of his friends and the principal authorities of Matamoros, that he left the city, for had he been imprisoned, a scene of bloodshed would have been the result, such as the frontier had never witnessed. Th e inhabitants of Brownsville, on hearing of the order for Belden's arrest, were organising to cross the river, to wreak their vengence on all concerned in the outrage. The act ofthe tyrant Gomez, of Saltillo, and his agent, is openly den ounced by the Mexican authorities at Matamoros, and they’ feel confident that, as soon as proper representations of the affair are made to the Mexican government, the acts of Gomez will be disowned, and ample indemnification made to the injured parties. We understand that no time will be lost in laying the whole matter becoro our Secretary of State and our minister at the city of Mexico.— From ai vv . ive !u .rd of this affair, it is one of the itragi-s vve have ever known per. petr. on Aaiencan citizens by th« legalized robber- ‘it imbe _ilu nation, and if there ever vvns a ease her;.Ended the prompt interfer ence of the American government, this is one. Removal of Free Negroes from Virginia. —The hi:: which previously passed the Virgin ia House, appropriating $30,000 per annum to the colonization of free negroes of that State in Africa, is now a law, having passed the Senate, with an amendment which imposes an annual tax of $1 upon every male free negro in the State from 21 lo 80 years of age. Tho fund ari sing from this source to be appropriated in like manner with the $30,000, unless the Legislature otherwise prescribe. Coffee.— The Pittsburg Post states that at that place the sales of coffee have fallen off 50 pr cent, since the price ofthat article has advanced to the present exhorbitant rates. At Cincinnati a similar result has taken place, and at New Or leans, a writer in the Bulletin thinks that the sales are diminishing more than one-third or even ono-half. He gives the average stocks on the Ist of February for five years in that city, at 20,000 sacks, now they are estimated at 75,000 to 80,000. With reference todeficient cropsand decreased consumption, a correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, has a word to say. Admit ting that the yield of 1849, in Java and Rio is less by 800,000 bags than was that of 1848, he reasons that 200,000 bags of this deficiency will probably be made up from portions of the old crop held over in the shellin consequence ofthe low prices of 1848, and that tho diminished con sumption in Europe and America, in conse quence of the high prices of 1849-50, will he e qual to 400,000 bags, which two items will re duce *!■«.-Tieficicncy of last year's crop, in effect, to 200,000 bags. The Gazette adds: “In tlie country, vve understand,the usual sub stitutes for coffee, when prices are high, have been extensively resorted to; viz. rye, barley, potatoes, and sassafras. In this city, at must of the retail groceries in the outer part of town, burnt rye and corn are uow regular articles sale ; and a mixture of about equal parts ofeof fue, corn, and rye, carefully burnt, is exposed at some of tho large groceries in the central parts ofthe city, and sell at something less than one i half the price of coffee alone. This last pre- j p.iration, wo aro told is not at all unpalatable. The Philadelpha Board of Trade, at a stated i meeting held on Monday evening, adapted a me moiial to Congress in favor of a reduction in j the present rate of letter postage to two cents each, for all inland postage, to be prepaid, and recommended a free circulation nfsiinutar peti tions among the citizens, be to sont lo their rep resentatives in the State Legislature. The Board expressed the opinion that the proposed reduction is for the interest of all, rich and poor old and young, in every section of our country, in a commercial, social, moral, literary and po litical point of view Eruption of Mount Vesuvius- —Accounts from Naples of the 12lh ult. give deeply interest ing accounts of a fearfully grand and unfortu nately fatal eruption of Vesuvius. For a week, says a writer, we have now enjoyed the most splendid eruption which has taken place for many years. The ashes have been carried as far, we linow, as twenty miles, and no doubt, much farther. The lava descends in two steams, upon Ottajana, where it has destroyed a palace and much land belonging to a nobleman of that name, and another toword Torridcli Annunzia ta, while the flames and the immense masses of rock which are ejected, form at night a terrific spectacle. The roaring of the mountain was such as to disturb the whole country for miles round, and in Naples, the windows shook with every repetition of it, which was unceasing night and day. Immense crowds, of course, walked over to the side of the bay to get a near, er view; religions processions are moving about, for the intercession of the Madonna and the saints; and it is said that the Pope is to perform some ceremonial to cause the mountain to stay its ruinous proceedings. lam sorry to add that the accidents to those who went over have been very sad. A young Pole was stuck in the leg by a burning stone, which cut through tho limb, and he died on the mountain from loss of blood. A young American officer was struck in the arm, which hung suspended by a bit of flesh On his arrival in Naples he had lust so much blood, that an amputation could not take place, and as no reaction had up to this time taken place, it is not expected that he can live. A gendarme is also reported killed, and two men who had fallen a sacrifice to the eruption, were said to have been buried yesterday at Portici Some anxiety has been felt for an Englishman and his wife who had not returned from a visit tothe mountain; and yet crowds roll on nigiit and .day to see this wonderful phenomenon. From the neighborhood of the mountains, all the inhabitants have fled, and the powder from the magazine at Tom, has been removed. Line of Steam ers to Ciiagres. —The Wash ington Rcpuhlrc says: “The United Stales Gov ernment mail line from New York lo Ciiagres is receiving favorable notice from the New York press. On Friday evening last, the steamer Georgia, of that line, arrived at New \ r ork, af ter one of the most astonishing runs ever per formed on ocean or river. This was the first through trip of these inammouth steamers, and tho result lias proved all that could be desired, establishing the fact that the distance can be performed in seven days, even with adverse winds; and, with fair weather, it is conjectured that either the Georgia or Ohio can make the passage in six days’ running time. At the com mencement of this mail service by this line, there were delays inciJent upon so great an un dertaking; but as the ships have been completed and placed in service, they have not only fully realized the high anticipation formed but have actually challenged the admiration of all behol ders. When it was announced on Friday eve" ning that sh ' had arrived, there was uncommon excitement in the city ; for it was hard to credit that the distance could have been performed in that short space of lime. “The experiment (if it can be called such) made by the Government in assisting the great mail project, lias resulted in the production of a couple of steamers which can safely challenge the world. It is no longer a question, whether our ship-yard and machine-shop can produce the equal of the British mechanics, tho fact is substantiated that they cannot only equal, but excel. The construction of those ships has con ferred honor upon tho country, and every American heart may well beat quickly when the eye rests upon those splendid specimens of American skill. The constructor, George Law, is certainly entitled to the highest ciedit for what he has accomplished, and within n time which has distanced Government remoetilion with all its resources in money, dock-yards ma chine-shops, and engineers." Botany Bay Emigrants to California.— Among tho recent arrivals at San Francisco, were a number from Botany Bay, one ship alone bringing 60 convicts from Hobart Town. Oc casionally the valuable new citizens distinguish themselves by characteristic acts of daring and heroism, and are rewarded by tho authorities of San Francisco with a ball and chain, arid the privilege of working on the streets. & m ££> 3 In Macon, Ga., on Friday, 15th inst. Mrs. Riioda Augusta Wood, wife of Mr. Thomas Wood, and daughter of Erastus Graves, Esq , of New York, aged 30 years. By her death her family and her circle of relatives and friends, and the church of which she was a member, have been greatly bereaved and afflicted.— A humble, conscientious and earnest Christian has been removed from Iter place on earth to the unseen world. We mourn over our loss, but we be lieve,and we rejoice in the assurance that she is numbered with the family of the redeemed in heaven, and that she is now with them in the presence of her God and Snviour. Her life was ono of humility, of active piety, of faith in Christ, and Iter end was peace.— Her living example and hor dying testimony are precious; she “being dead yet speaketh.” (EpThc Savannah Repnblican will please copy the above.
