The Convention of Governors of
varionrf States invited to assemble in
Atlanta, by Governor Smith, on the
kOtbef May, to disease and deliber
ate upon the practicability and feasi
bility of constructing the proposed
Atlantio A Great Western Canal, will
he an occasion of vast importance and
magnitude; and we trust that it will
resnlt in great good to the enterprise,
and will arouse general pnblic inter
est to its claims as one of the great
est and grandest schemes o( internal
improvement, as it really is, in the
eonntry.
The magnitude of the Bcheme does
not consist so much in the construe
tion of the proposed canal itself, as
its aooomplishment will open np the
means of a commercial intercom inn
nication extending, in its benefits, to
all Sections of the country. It is a
national enterprise, equal in its pro
portions and influences to almost the
whole era of our common country
lying East of the Mississippi river,
nor can we say that its benefits will
not extend io all pqrts of the country
East of the Bocky Mountains. It
will bring to the East, at cheap rates,
the productions of the grain-growing
West, and return to the West the
luxuries of the South and of the trop
ical regions.
The building of railroads from the
Atlantic to the Pacific was a great
conception, and the consummation
was a grand triumph of enterprise
directed by American skill and ac
complished by Amerioan pluck. As
grand as the building of these rail
roads are, opening up as they do, to
settlement by sturdy pioneers large
tracts of land hitherto useless as the
material wealth of the country, we
are not certain these stupendous
strides in the march of progress are
of greater importance to the country
generally, than the bnilding of a great
canal, affording the means of cheap
transportation between large and
populous States, teeming with wealth
and enterprise that only need to be
made richer and more prosperous by
just such a work.
The object of the proposed Con
vention of Governors, is to have a
free utteranoe of opinions in regard
to the subject under consideration—
to see in what manner, and under
what kind of organization and co-
opsration, the interests of the pro
posed canal can be best subserved and
promoted. The step taken by Gov
eruor Smith will, doubtless, meet the
approbation and the hearty response of
all men who are capable of taking an
interest in the general progress and
prosperity of our country. It places
Georgia as the foremost State in ef
forts to consummate a scliome gigantic
in its proportions and grand in its
its result*
CAPT. WILLIAMS, or THE STEAMSHIP AT
LANTIC.
Capt. Williams has been severely
criticised and condemned m regard
to the wreck of the ill-fated Atlantic.
It has been charged that the steamer
was sent to sea without a sufficiency
of coal, and that the Captain was
grossly, and even criminally, neg
lectful of his duties and reckless of
the lives of his passengers in nearing
the coast of Nova Scotia, so danger
ous to ships. A reporter of the New
York Herald interviewed the Captain
on the 4th, from which interview we
gather the substance of the statements
made by him.
The ship was sufficiently coaled
fer the voyage but for three days of
heavy weather. He accounts for his
being so much out of position solely
on account of the current, which
must have been a northerly as well
as westerly set. He allowed what
was ample, namely: eight degrees to
the eastward. He was certain of his
position on Monday noon because
both barometers agreed, and the ob
servations were taken by different
instruments and observer*
In reply to the Herald reporter as
to how he struck the land when, ac
cording to all his reckonings, he
should have been at a safe distance
f.om it, he replied that he had already
stated that a northerly “set” proved
greater than he allowed for. For
two or three preceding days he had
found the ship, by observations, to
have been “set” to the southward and
eastward of her position. By reck
oning he was not astonished at this
southeasterly “set,” knowing the
heavy northerly and westerly galeB
that had prevailed in the Atlantic
during the winter; -in fact, when
making the nor-hern passage home
ward bound he decided to near the
Virgin Bocks more than Cape Bace.
£Capt. Williams claims that he per
formed his whole duty during the
disaster.
cr The communication which
appears in another column, over the
signature of Mr. Samuel A. Burney,
of Madison, is published by us at the
earnest request of the writer, who
claims that he has not been courte
ously treated by our neighbor of the
Herald. In making the publication,
we do so with no intention of taking
np either side of the controversy.
Mr. B. says he has been “denied a
hearing in the Herald,” and insists
that he should have some opportuni
ty to reply to an unjust attack, as he
regarded it.
The Rochester (N. Y.) Demo
crat and Chronicle says the Barnes-

I am truly sorry, Mr. Editor, to have
trespassed so much on your valuable

letter, I would bave been willing to bave
