This report is quite voluminous, but clear, perspicu ous, unreserved, and conclusive, we learn. It embraces the original con tract between Major Cooper, Kimball, Lomon, Baum, and others, for construct ing tho road; it contains all the particu lars of the discovery of the fraudulent bonds, and the consequent action of the Board by virtue of which Major Cooper was constrained to resign; it comprises documents through which the interests of oertaiu stockholders were transferred to H. I. Kimball and others; aud, in deed, in it is embodied a brief but sue- cicnt history of this remarkable corpora tion, which, though organized for the practical operation of a practical enter prise, has a history which, for adven taro, misfortunes and thrilling denoue ments, challenges romance. Wo hope to publish tho entire report at an early day, and thus afford our readers an insight into this long-debated question. TELEGRAPH NEWS Ujr the New lurk Associated Press. NEW YORK.

Jnl, Torm.llMt. of tha Court of ortltnarr, of uMouitf- On Tlnnsiky right an elegant social collation was given to the delegates to tho Southern and Western Railroad Assooia tion nt the Kimball House. Quite number of invited gucsta were present Ez-Qovernor Brown presided. After all had partaken of the very inviting refresh ments provided by Mr. Crittenden, Gov. Brown, in a short address, welcomed the representatives of tho railmitis to our oity, and spoke with satisfaction of the fact that tho different sections of the country were at peace, and looked upon railroads and tho traffic which they cre ated as agents in harmonizing differences and perpetuating peace, as well as nil other benefits. Ho concluded by oalliug upon Mr. Alien, the President of the Convention, who expreesed the opinion that railroads and telegraphs were making the world into a smaller compass and enabling mankind to make rapid strides towards grasping and taking in tho whole. By these man is making conquests which may extend fur beyond any one’s present conceptions, us at present wo-qre furin advance of anything ever dreamed of even in our own early days. Col. Ed. Vernon of tho official ltuUway Guide was called upon to respond on tho part of the press, whogavo it us his opin ion that Railroads would more effectually reconstruct tho Sonth than all tho acts of Congress. Hon. B. H. Ilill was called, and re sponded on tho part of tho legal profes sion, who said ho had taken stock in five Railroads, al ways nmler recommendation of eminent financiers, in whose judgment ho confided, and never yet found one that had paid a dividend; and that finally a littlo over a year ago, when a railroad enterprise was presented to him by Hie venerable President of this festive occas ion, (Gov. Brown) which tic said would be certain to pay, he believod it ati.l went in, expecting to receive liaudsomo divi dends, but not a dollar had yet been re alized by him. Gov. Brown responded that it was very unkind in Mr. Hill to apply the term venerable to him, ns though he were old. Ho was really a young man. Mr. Hill said that by tho word venera ble ho meant distinguished. The apolo gy was accepted. Col. T. P. Snffold responded to a call upon tho agricultural interests present, who spoke eloquently of tho twin sister hood of Agriculture aud Railroads, and related an account ol a Railroad meeting lie attonded in his native town when a boy, where one man expressed the opinion that no one in that country would over see a Railroad who did not go to Augusta in a wagon to look at it. Another—Major John B. Walker, now re-idiug in Madison, ex pressed tho opinion aud the hope that he would live to see a Railroad from tho At lantic to tho Pacific, which waa then looked upon as a crazy, visionary idea. Colonel G. W. Adair responded to a call upon the Real Estate interests of the country. He said ho was an old Rail roader—commenced bis career in this business many years ago, oa a fancy con ductor on tho Georgia ltuitroad, and bad tho pleasure of bringing in the first train tba- over came to Atlanta, and so morkod has been his progress and advancement ua a great Railroad genius, that ho was now aota&lly a Director of a Street Rail road. " _ , _ Mr. E. G. Barney, of tho Selma, Rome & Dalton Railroad, in response to a call, related having seen the first engine and passenger car that ever w;ia in America, and a very amusing incident of an old lady who, on reading an account of tho same rauning at the rate of fifteen miles an hour.. «aid it was not so; that nobody could live who was carried that rapidly, os it would toko away the brcatli of any mortal. , In closing, Gov. Brown proposed the health of llis Excellency, Gov. Bmitb, who was unable to be present, to which Dr.. A. L. Hamilton responded in an elo quent speech, and tho guests adjourned, after having spent a most pies—nt and agreeable hour. The Committee of Arrangements con- ■listed of Messrs. A. 0. Ladd and W. C. Morrill, who discharged the duties as signed to them meet creditably to them- Trumbull un.J Schorl lu New York- Tke Georgia Hoad Committee at work— Bollock's Rascality belag Developed — 81:4,000,000 of unnecessary Bonds—A t majority of them Uncoastitatlonal- Clews to be Called Upon. New Yobk, April 12.—Many called upon Senators Trumbull and Scliurz to-day. *. There was a heavy vote in tho Meth odist Conference tn-day In favor of lay delegates to tho General Conference in May. The Committee of the Georgia Legis lature to investigate the registration and sale of Georgia State Bonds, during Bul lock’s administration, held a session at tho Grand Central Hotel yesterday. Tho oommittee is composed of Messrs T. J. Simmons, John I. Hall and Garnett Mc Millan. Alton Angier accompanies them as Clerk, and General Robert Toombs ns Counsel. Bonds to tho value of $12,000,000 wore sold, $7,500,000 of which were in aid of various railroads, and the remainder, ac cording to Bullock’s statement, were mode for legislative expenses and to meet the interest upon previously dated obligations. It is claimed that all in ex cess of $1,000,000 were unnecessary, and that the majority were unconstitutional, and the fctate of Georgia is not respon sible for them. The powers of the committee gre main ly to enforce the registration of theso bond. Evory holder will be required to register, and tho examination will relate to the manner in which they came into his possession. To-day the committee will visit Henry Clews & Co., to make inquiries.
