Official
Decisions under the new postage act, made by
the Postmaster General after consulting with
the Attorney General.
June 11, 1851.
The postage on all books, and on all other
printed matter, except newspapers and periodi
cals published at intervals not exceeding three
months , and sent from the office of publication to
actual and bona file subscribers, must be pre
paid.
If the amount paid and marked on sr.eh prin-’
ted matter is not sufficient to pay the whole 1
postage due, the excess of weight beyond that
paid for is to be charged with double the rate
which would have been charged if pre-paid, and
the postage on such excess collected at the of
fice of delivery.
If, by the neglect of a postmaster, such mat
ter is sent without prepayment, the double pre
paid rate must be collected on delivery.
Postage must be charged on all letters, news
papers, and other matter, according to the dis
tance on the route by which they arc forwarded ;
and this (unless otherwise directed by the sen
der) must be the route by which they will soon
est reach their destination, although that may
not be their shortest route.
On letters to and from Great Britain, ( and
the continent of Europe when sent through Eng
land,) the rates of postage and mode of rating
will be the same as heretofore, except as to let
ters to or from California and Oregon, in respect
to which special instructions will be hereafter
given,
On all letters to or from the continent of Eu
rope, not sent through England, the United
States inland and sea postage will, in all eases,
he combined, and will be twenty cents the sin
gle rate, without regard to the distance the same
are carried within the United States. The mode
of rating will be the same as heretofore. [Full
tabular statements in regard to the rate of post
age, both foreign and inland, will soon be pub
lished.]
Subscribers to periodicals, to obtain the bene
fit of the provision in regard to prepayment,
must pay the full quarter’s postage before the
delivery of the first numbers, when there are
several numbers to be delivered during the
quarter. If, by reason of any increase in the
size of the periodical, or otherwise, it shall ap
pear that the whole quarter’s postage was not
paid in advance, the subscribers will lose the
benefits of prepayment, and the numbers re
ceived during the w hole quarter will be charged
with the double or unpaid rate, and the sub
scriber will be credited with only the amount
paid in advance.
Uuder the provisions of the 2d section of the
new postage act, no neivspapers, other than those
published weekly only, are entitled to circulate
free of postage in the counties where published.
The office of publication is the office where the
newspaper is printed.
In determining newspaper postage, the dis
tances are to be computed from the office of
publication, and not from the county line of the
county in w hich the paper is published; and
the distance is also to be computed over the
route on which it is carried.
Newspapers published, weekly only in a coun
ty joining Canada iine may be sent free to Can
ada, provided they do not leave the county of
publication until they cross the line into Cana
da.
Newspaper publishers may send and receive
their exchange newspapers to and from Canada
free of charge.
A newspaper is not a periodical within the
- meaning and intent of the provision which re
quires the postage on periodicals to be paid in
advance, and declares that the postage thereon
•null be one-half of the rates previously specified
in the second section of the act. All subscribers
to newspapers were, and still are, required, by
the provisions of the thirtieth section of the act
of March, 1825, to pay one quarter’s postage
in advance ; but by so doing they are not enti
tled to have the postage reduced below the es
tablished rates.
Payments in advance on newspapers and pe
riodicals can only be made by the subscribers at
the post ofice where they arc to be delivered.
The postage on newspapers, periodicals, and
other matter .not chargeable with letter postage,
when sent out of the United States, must be
pre-paid at the Tull rate. Publishers may pre
pay postage on their issues, but can have no de
duction of postage on account of such prepay
ment. When a periodical is published only
quarterly, the actual and bona file subscriber for
such periodical may pay in advance, and have
the benefit of the advance payment, provided lie
pays to the postmaster at the office where he is
to receive the periodical before its delivery. If
a periodical is published less frequently than
quarterly, the postage must he prepaid, and at
the full rate.
Letters mailed before the Ist day of July,
though delivered after, will in ali cases be charg
ed with postage at the rates in lorce at the
lime of the mailing thereof.
N. K. IIALL, Postmaster General.
’The editor of the Buckeye Eagle, after hear
ing Jenny Lind sing, “l know that my Re
deemer Ih'eth,” was so worked up with the
pathos of the music and the poetry that he
went off and joined the church: “for,'’ said
he,” if there is anything more heavenly in
heaven itself, it is indeed worth all the effort
it is said to require to try to get there.”
David Crockett used to say of the late Philip
Hone, with whom he was in Congress, that
he was the perlitest man he ever knew —
“cause why?” said the Colonel, “he allers puts
his bottle on tire sideboard before he asks you
drink, and then turns his back so as not to
see haw much you take! ‘This,’ adds the Colo

LETTERS FROM TIIE NORTH—\O. 17.
New Haven, Juno 14, 1851.
I went yesterday evening to re-peruse tli© Todten
buch about which I wrote you some time ago—Much
is opened every day for public perusal iu this city. I
will now give you a few sad extracts from some of the
Warble Pages . Among the many beautiful Monu
ments erected by the spontaneous munificence of the
living, testamentary of their undying respect for the
immortal dead, which stand declaiming, in staistieal
eloquence, of their several virtues, all around, was one
surmounted by a chastely sculptured Urn, over which
was carelessly thrown a mantle, which hung in
graceful drapery down the sides, on which was sculp
tured, in relief, the name of tits deceased— Daggett.
These beautiful Parian Tombs, standing among the
languid boughs of the Weeping Willows, are the ar
tisiical and mute hieroglyphics here on earth of the
praiseworthy virtues of Use redeemed Armies of the
skies.
Immediately in front of the ponderous Egyptian
gate, as you enter, may be perceived a beautiful little
Parian Tomb, the entablature of which is crowned by a
very chastely sculptured statue 6f a lap dog. with bis
head elevated, looking perpetually up towards Heaven,
as if striving to discover the soul of Ids little master,
whose name is engraved, in relief .upon the scroll
upon which lie stands— Albert. This is very simple,
yet, truly affecting —for, be it known that the dog is
the hieroglyphic if friendship in the soul of man. I
do not know where the Artist got the idea, but it
shows plainly, to my mind, that he is a man of genius.
The tallest and most magnificent looking monument
in the country, is that erected to the memory of Henry
Trowbridge. Not far from this one, are several oth
ers with Urns on the tops of the entablatures, from the
tops of which burn as many eternal lights, emblematic
of the immortality of the human soul.
In the extreme Northern part of the Cemetery is a
Gothic Parian Monument—(and, far, the most beauti
ful one there) —erected to perpetuate the memory of
Mrs. Ann Gerry, wife of Elbridge Gerry, one of the
signers of the Declaration of Independence , and
\ ice President of the United States—each of whose
Gothic res is surmounted by an Eternal Light.
Not for from this, is one with the following simple
inscription upon it—‘A Mother’s Grave.’ Above it
are two leaves of laurel so twined as to form a beauti
ful Coronal —signifying that the soul of the person is
crowned with immortality.
A little farther oh may bo seen two Tomb Stones
standing side by side, one of which has the following
inscription upon it, I know that my Redeemer liveth .’
Henry W. Allis, the only sonpf Solomon W. and Emi
ly Allis, who died March fl\ c Ist, 1542, aged 10
years.
1 The less of this cold world the more of Heaven.
The briefer life the earlier immortality .’
The other contains the following inscription, ‘Fran
cis E.. daughter of Salmon and Emily Allis, who
died February ‘ Jlh , IS4O, aged 18 years.’
‘‘Not my will, but thine be done’
In the Western part of the Cemetry, may be seen a
beautiful monument erected, by parental love, to the
memory of their twin children, Ellen Trowbridge and
Mary Elizabeth, daughters of John William and
Jane Louisa Fitch. On the Western side of this
monument is sculptured, in Basso Relievo, a guardian
Angel hovering over two children with a tender and
protecting benignity while bearing them up to Heaven.
There is, also, near the centre of the western por
tion of the Cemetery, a magnificent Egyptian Sar
cophagus of Samuel St. John.
A little farther on, and nearer the entrence gate, is
a monument erected to the memory of William Wal
lace, on whose eastern side is sculptured, in relief, a
harp with the strings broken ! Bclotv this, is the fol
lowing inscription, ‘We weep, but they have done
with tears.’
Still farther on, and very near the gate, is an Egyp
tian monument, erected to the memory of Eli Whit
ney, the inventerUf the Cotton Gin.
\ cry near tlds last, is a Tombstone erected to the
memory of Mrs. Elizabeth T. Stone, on which is sculp
tured, in bold relief, a band resting confidingly, upon
the Holy Bible, beneath the patient lolling of a lan
guid Lily in early flower. This is r cry simple, yet ve
ry beautiful. The Lily, the fairest of the field, bows
its head, as if weighed down, in the morning of its flow
ering, by the cold frost of a great sorrow, emptying its
dew’y libation of tears—(its only offering to God,) up
on the rooky foundation of its utmost trust, the golden
Pharos of the shores of God—the Holy Bible. This
is the only Light House that can cheer the weary soul
of the patient mariner while voyaging on the troub
lous Sea of Time. By this great awakening light—
burning alike amid the tempest and the storm —through
sunshine and through shade—is the soul led, unerringly,
into the Celestial Heaven. After every other Light has
ecased to burn—some blown out by the adversity of the
raging tempest—others obscured by the darkness of the
impending storm— this bright shining Beacon of God—
like the cloudless Sun at noon day in Heaven—may be
seen glorious above all change,ffixed and immortal in its
splendor, burning upon the Celestial Hills. On a
beautiful Tomb Stone, erected to the memory of Mrs
Almira Dibble, is sculptured a Rose-tree stem witli a
full-blown rose newly broken oft’—signifying that the
wfe was cutoff in the prime of life, when her highest
hopes were in their fullest blossom. This is very af
j fcciing and truly beautiful.
Not far from this, I perceived sculptured on a Tomb
Stone of a little child that bad died in early infancy, a
Rose-bud newly broken from its parent stem.
Not far from this last, is another very beautiful
Tomb Stone, erected to the memory of Sarah Ella,
daughter of Samuel B. and Rebecca T. Gorham, on
which, just above the inscription, issculptured, in alto
relcivo, a beautiful white Dove ascending into
Heaven.
On nn old Tomb Stone, standing amid many others
much decayed by time, J read, with considerable diffi
culty, the following inscription, ‘//arc lyes the Body
of Israel the Son of Hezdkiah Brainanl,.assistant. lie
dyed a member of Yale College, Jan. Gth 1748, aged
23 yens.’
Close by this, was an old Tomb Stone whose inscrip
tion was so obscured by the effacing fingers of time that
I could not decypher it. Its Emblem was a winged
head.
I observed a very plain and substantial monument,
whose style pleased me very much, erected to the mem
ory of the Hon. B. Storrs, ayd bis only daugther
Eliza Storrs, of New York. /
On a beautiful little mongfnent, erected to the mem
ory of Ilarriette Augusta, infant daughter of Els
\vorth,and Ilarriette B. Maltby, 1 year, 8 months and
8 days, is the following beautiful and consolatory in
scription—'She is where the ransomed are.’
Not far from the entranco gate, over which is in
scribed, ‘The Dead shall be raised ,’ is a tall, but ve
ry plain granite monument, erected to the memory
of Noah Webster, the great Lexicographer—on the
base of which is merely sculptured, in bold relief—
‘Webster.’ This is enough, for the man who could
compile such a Dictionary of the English language,
needs no ostentatious monument to perpetuate his
memory.
Not far from this, is a beautiful monument, cut out
of Portland Stone, to perpetuate the memory of the
lion. Asa Chapman. The style of this is not only
chaste but beautiful.
On the top of a plain circular pillar, not far from the
gate, may be seen the following inscription, on a copper
plate embeded in the stone— ‘ Alice Sleeps .’
Close by’ this, is another done in the same style,
with these words engraved on copper— 'Her name was
Mary.’
On a plain white monument, erected to the memo
ry of Harpin Lum, is the follow ing inscription— ‘ Bles
sed are the pure in heart.’
I have idst said that over the entrance of the pon
derous/Egyptian Gate , is inscribed— ‘ The dead shall
be reyfsed.’ Is it not a lamentable thing indeed for any
nation to affect to contemn the learning and Fine Arts
of another, and, at the same time, mako use of all
their wisdom and Art to enrich herself? Methinks
that this is certainly not only the most lamentable, but
the most unjust, thing that ever happened under the
Sun ! This, we do, as a nation, every day of our
lives.
This leads me to ask, what advantage have we over
the Egyptians ? None that I can see, for the very life ‘
of me. They believed in the immortality of the body.
So do we. We bury the body with the expectation of
its rising again. So did they. Now, what advant
age have we over them ? I know we arrogate to our
selves a good deal ; but hdVe we, in fact, a particle
more than they had ? I have long examined this sub
ject, and find they were just as well off in regard
to the knowledge of a future state, as we are. Just
what they taught in their great Book of the Dead,
about a future life, we hear taught here every Sun
day in our Churches—but nothing more. Is uot this a
very wonderful as well as an instructing thing ? J
think it is. When I find that the Apostle* quoted the
traditional wisdom of the Egyptians, in regard to a
future life, and the noble or ignoble destiny of the good
and bad of the departed of this world, I say to
verily, verily this is a very presumptuous pcnplf in
deed ! If we wish to be confirmed in this belief, all
that we have to do is, to read the Hieroglyphical
Scripture on the Cerements of the Mummies in their
Catacombs, taken from tlieir renowned Book of the
Dead. Y r on will then say that Moses was right in be
coming acquainted with ail the knowledge and wisdom
of the Egyptians.
If a man cannot draw admonition from the perusal
of such a Book as this, lie would not, although‘one
Should arise from the dead ’ to teach him. This is
truly a little city of the dead, but very populous withal.
These little Tombs and Monuments are the untenanted
images of the beautiful ‘’Houses not made loith hands,
eternal in the Heavens ,’ which the souls of the depart
ed now occupy. Here we have beautiful-bordered
streets and willow fringed Avenues, just as we see in
a large and populous city. But all is silence. There
is no language spoken here, but the eloquence of the
Lamb, which is louder iu Us meekness than ten thou
sand thunders. This is the expressive language of si
lence, which is the eloquent vernacular of the Angels.
Every Tombstone Monument and Sarcophagus is a
speaking Chapter of this Great Book which contains
the pathetic History of all the speechless, speaking
citizens of this silent, audible little city.
Qii one of the monuments, embowered in a beauti
ful forest of Weeping Willows, is sculptured a winged
Hour-glass, representing, Tempus fugit. This is ve
ry beautiful and speaks volumes to the soul.
Before I conclude this letter I would beg leave to say
that a more chaste or classical singer than Mrs. Ennna
Gillingham, cannot be found in America. Ilow any
people, as well informed as the citizens of New Ilaven
generally are can forego the pleasure of hearing such
a divine Cantatrice, is truly a mystery. In her pecu
liar line, I do not know of a single American lady to
bo compared with her. In fact, there are very few
Italian Artists equal to her. The ineffable delight
which I enjoyed at the Temple last night, cannot be ex
pressed in any but the language of Angels.
The Serenade, called The Star of Love, was ex
quisitely rendered, and showed, at once, in the impas
sioned language of pure love, what a loveable being
was there ministering to our delight. I eannot speak
too highly of her whole performance—nor eon I fore
go the pleasure of speaking in the highest terms of the
admirable performances of Messrs. WiHcox and Ains
worth, on the Piano Forte and Flute.
The Song called Sweet Bird , by Mrs. Gillingham,
with IJute Obligato accompaniment, by Mr. Ainsworth,
was really excellent. The Song called ‘ Rocked on the
cradle of the deep,’ was sung by Mrs. Gillingham with
admirable expression. /In fact, I do not know that I
ever heard it sung bejm by either male or female—al
though the Theme Is one better adapted to the male
voice.
But the Nectar an<F Ambrosire of the musical Sym
posium, were the Soena and Cavatina, from the Opera
of Ernani, by Verdi, and the exquisite little Scotch
song, called‘Down the burn Davie love.’ The first
of these was never rendered any better by Parodi, and
the trilling was perfect. This trilling was not the mere
spasmodic scattering of notes out upon the air, as I
have before heard, but the clear pipings of those beau
tiful birds which sing all day long in the Orchards of
Rosetta. Mrs. Gillingham is the best singer of the
real Scotch Ballad, that I ever heard.
The woman who possesses thjr power to enchant
the souls of immortal beings, as she did ou Friday
night, with the ‘richest overflow of bliss that ever
poured from Heaven,’ is an Isis, and has sucked the
soul of inspiration out of the hallowed lips outlie radi
ant Osiris.
Transported with thy heavenly melodies.
As when that wingless Swan* all suddenly
Received new pinions for its native skies-'-
On which it soared aloft exultingly>-
I feel new pinions to my spirit given,
Wherewith I may ascend from earth to Heaven.
A ladder now leans down for thee this even,
Like Jacob saw on Bethel-plain at night,
Down which the Angels came to him from Heaven,
When from their footsteps music fell like light
Out of the Sun, till all the place grew bright.

LETTER FROM COLUMBUS.
Columbus, Ga., June 28, 1851.
Dear Citizen: —l have, after a brief absence, ar
rived once more in the great city of Manufactures,
which, at this time is rather dull in the way of trade, but
brisk in revivals and political maneuvering.
We have been blessed with a considerable outpour
ing of the spirit on all the Churches of this city, par
ticularly the Methodist, which has received a bountiful
reward for her labors in the work of ‘calling sinners
to repentance,’ by adding to her list of probationary
members, over two hundred persons, principally youths
of both sexes, varying in age. from ten to sixteen years;
all —in the language of the enough to
know that,‘the wages of sin is death.’
I am inclined to think that the Temperance cause is
loosing ground here. Drunken men are seen daily in
our streets, whiskey shops are on the increase! Some
wholesale merchants sell by the bottle in tlieir back
rooms, where, a great deal of drinking is done, some
times to excess, to the injury of the ‘Bar Rooms,’ and
the loss to the corporation, of so many retail licences.
This is certainly a great, and growing evil, which all
men who love God’s image, should, at least, try to sup
press. There is no telling the effect, and the amount
of blessings that, the late revival would have brought
upon this community, if the leading members were men
who condemned the trading, in ardent spirits ; but on
the contrary, many, very many, of the most prominent,
leading men of our Churches, are engaged in this traf
fic. True, some otour Churches, a while back, purged
their bodies, by excommunicating such of their mem
bers, as were engaged in the ‘’retail’ business. But
this purging produced no great amount of good. The
enemies of the Church of Christ, immediately turned up
on the little whiskey dealers, who had been expelled from
the society of ‘God’s chosen people,’ and said to them
—‘serves you right, you had no business aspiring to
boas big knaves, as the elders that were your Judges.’
Oh ye ciders, know that ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is
like unto treasure hid in a field ; the which v.lien a man
hath found, he l.ideth, and for joy thereof gocth and
selleth all that he hath, and buyetli that field.’ If you
love God, and wish to hand down to your posterity, the
fruits of a well spent, industrious life, leave your whole
sale traffic. If you lovo your fellow man, and hope
for happiness in the world to come, scan your whole
sale traffic in the cursed spirits which makes to him,
this lovely earth a Ilell.
Preparations are being made for celebrating the
approaching anniversary of our National Independence ;
which I hope will be done without any party feeling,
other than a decent emlulation to excel iu doing hon
or to the birth day of American liberty.
The military, and citizens generally, will form in pro
cession at ten o'clock A. M. and march to Temper
ance IL !1 where the Declaration of Independence will
be read by Capt. J. A. Girdner of the city light Guards,
and an address delivered by R. E. Dixon of the Colum
bus Guards. At three o’clock iu the afterneon the Sons
of Temperance moet at their room, form procession,
march through the principal streets, return to their Hall,
where an address will be delivered by the Rev. Dr. L.
Pierce. This good old man lias carried the cross of
his Heavenly Master,and fought in the cause of Tem
perance, caring no more for the wholesale dealer, than
the petty retailer. For upwards of thirty years ;he is
an able advocate. Our citizens expect to hear some
thing good, which they will, no doubt, if they get to
the Hall in time to procure seats.
Considerable feeling exists towards our city authori
ties, on account of the course pnrsed by the Mayor in
taxing the productions of American Artists, and per
miting foreign mountibanks to go free. Madame Ru
mour says—and, she sometimes tells the truth— that,
these strolling gentry, have a peculiar way of get
ting around our city fathers ; I do not wish, to be se
vere, but must say that, the tax cf fifteen dollars, on
the greatest production of modern genius, and Amer
ican Art. Tower’s Greek Slave,’ is most assuredly
a disgrace to our city. It certainly must have been an
oversight; if not, our city fathers should know that the
gentlemen employed to exhibit the works of American
Artists, will not stoop to tho low, pitiful whining of an
Italian ballad singer. The office of Alderman, at best,
is a very unthankful station, frequently receiving abuse
for their services; but, the Mayor receives a salary of
seven hundred dollars a year, and therefore, should
watch over the honor and interest us our city. I men
tion these‘rumours’ and facts, that the present incum
bents may have an opportunity of justifying their con
duct before the next election, if they wish to be re
elected.
The Fire-Eating Journals of this city, appear to be
ready to wheel into line of-battle-, at-a moment’s warn
ing, and I think are only waiting for orders from head
quarters, OSCAR.

To Correspondents.
“Bloomer” writes rather pointedly and graphically,
for our sheet. He is a little too high in the pictur -
esqueiv fiad admission into the columns of the Citizen.
Perhaps our Bachelor Brother of Cherry street can
accommodate him, as he has been lately philosophizing
upon bifurcations and collateral fancies, and can, con
sequently, do the subject more justiee than we can.
Our country friends who desire political and
other notices published in the Citizen must send them
direct to this office. We cannot be expeeted to take
things second lnmd and oat of season from others.
£s§r Our kind adviser of Columbus gives a most sub
stantial reason for the course he deprecates. To “take
the Bull by the Horns” is often the best way toprevent
hi? goring, while showing the white feather always in
vites aggression and insult. In the ease indicated,
however, there is no cause of apprehension.
, One Day in Advance.
Our paper, this week is issued and dated one day, in
advance of the usual time of publication, with a view
to give the hands in the office an opportunity of going
a ‘ fourth of Julying,” and the Editor the privilege of
attending the Convention at Atlanta. Next week, the
usual day of publication will be resumed.
A Campaign Paper.
The Georgia Citizen will be forwarded till the day
ol Election and a week or two thereafter, to individuals,
and clubs at the following low rate.
Single copy. 75 cts.
Ten copies. $5,00.
Cash to accompany the order. A few warm Union
men in one of the South West counties have already or
dered 100 copies for distribution during the campaign,
and it will be a very easy thing for our friends in fifty
other counties to do the same. Will not the Union

the hint and tile expmple noticed, Th im
portance of Information aipon# the peo

there is no much good emi bo effected bv
the gratuitous of the documents. A little
exertion on tfie part of one or two individuals in each
county will be all sufficient to raise the sum stipulated
as the price of 100 copies, and we will undertake send
ing them to any address designated. As an induce
ment for a little extra exertion in carrying out this
proposition we hereby offer to send 50 extra copies
gratuitously to that one of ten counties which will raise
the largest clnb fin-the campaign Citizen.
Our wealthy Union men in this way can do the
cause an essential service while they are helping us to
sustain our press. Individuals who send us $5 or $lO
shall have the corresponding number sent weekly to
any address designated. Wake up L’nion men and
all come along!

Infanticide. —Early yesterday morning, a white
infant child, new-born, was fished up by a negro man
from the river opposite to the mouth of 3d St. in this
city. Several negroes were out at dawn looking after
their fish-lines opposite the city and saw two white fe
males walk up and down the bank for a while, one of
whom carried a small bundle which she finally threw
into the water, when both disappeared. On opening
the bundle after it was taken out of the river, a dead in

negroes, but we.forbear.naming them,.until we can do
so on better authority.

The AffC of Conventions.— Kvery class of
people, nowadays, go into Conventions, to consult and
deliberate and act in relation to the matters most inti
mately connected with their respective callings and av
ocations. The Politician meets with his fellow to se
lect bis candidate for office and lay down his platform
of principle. The Religious world meets in Conven
tion to confer about Church matters. The Women
meet in Convention to settle “woman’s rights” and
the Planters and Merchants have had their meetings
of business and trade. But lo and behold! when
the Mechanics of Georgia propose to meet to-day, to
take counsel together for the good of their class, there
is a muss kicked up at once about (he matter, and all
manner of reproach is poured upon the heads of those
who dare assemhlo in council! Yea, even mechanics
are found who throw cold water on the movement and
denounce the same as dangerous and injurious. Ev
en party Hack , who for popularity’s take, once advo
cated the cause of the “dear mechanic” now tremble
lest their quondam patronizing friendship may bo quo
ted against the party to which they belong.
Well, we have not time to-day, to meet out to such
time servers and Sycophants the contempt we feel for
them; hut if God please, wo will “meet” some of
“them at Philippi” ere long, and Endeavor to show that
if traitors can meet in Convention to plot disunion ,
mechanic citizens may well be excused for the crime of
meeting in Council to promote Union among them
selves !

LETTER FROM DOOLY.
Lebanon, J une 2.4 th., 1851.
L, F. \V. Andrews, Esq..
Dear Sir :—I have received the Georgia Citizen
which I presume you forwarded. I take no political
paper, nor do I wish to be identified with any party.
As the servant of the church I think it prudent to be as
silent as possible. And my candid sentiments ave that
there is so much corruption in the country it is difiicult
to find an honest politician. I find the Bible from long
experience the best code of laws I have seen, and tbe
best Director}- in all cases. I desire the prosperity of
the errantry. The Union of the Confederacy (when
our Honor is not to be compromitted,) and a firm Union
between Georgia and South Carolina as well as every
Southern State in ease of difficulty. As to your can
didate for the Gubernatorial chair, Mr. Cobb, I am not
acquainted. But from the indication of the weatlier,
the people would prefer at this time the Corn to the
Cobb. Y ours very Respocfully,
J. C. Postell.
Rrsjronsr. by the Editor. Tire Reverend J. C.
Postell was indebted to one of fiis friends fin- tlw copy
of tire “Citizen’’ received by him, his name not being
‘on oar I foot;. Its reception need not therefonp hnvkeo
stirred up Fiis pioas wrath against the “ corruptions”
of politicians, as it seems to have done. Perhaps if he
had taken more political newspapers of the rig///
; stripe and less of sectarian journals, he would not have
been so distrustful of the honesty of the former. It is
possible, also, that if he is sincere in making the Bible
his daily Directory, he might have discovered the fact
that according to its code of laws, obedience to the
“powers that he'’ is a cardinal principle of that Book,
and utterly inconsistent with civil war, treason and dis
union, with which he evidently has some sympathy of
feeling when he expresses the wish that Georgia may
make common cause, with secessionists of other South
ern States, in their projects and schemes of dissolution.
Our Reverend friend, perhaps without knowing it,
seems in this respect to be governed by the “ higher
law” notions of Messrs. Seward & Cos. which gives to
every man the right, by virtue of his private interpreta
tion of Bible doctrine—to look upon laws and constitu
tions of Government, with sovereign contempt and
scorn. If this be so, we envy not the man nor his
principles.
As to the wit of his l 'fiing'’ at the Union candidate
for Governor, we have only to say, that Cobbs are very
useful things in their way, in the physical economy of
nature, being the heaven-ordained method by which
we arrive at the more precious grain, or the “full corn
in the ear.” As we cannot have the latter without the
former and as a sound Cobb is better than a blighted
and worm-eaten Kernel, we should, as wise men, not
throw away tlie Cobb, without a reasonable hope of
getting something better for the sustenance of animal
life.
The Georgia Infant Drummer.
Benson A. English, the Infant Drummer and whis
tler, from this city, appeared at the Tabernacle, N. Y.
on Friday evening last, in a “Grand Concert of Messrs.
Benjamin and lleevingen’s Classes of 1000 Young
dies” and with the most unbounded applause. It is
confessed, on all hands, that such a musical ptodigy
never before turned up the astonish and delight of the
world. Five thousand people were present at the
Tabernacle on the occasion of his first appearance The
following notices have met our eye in the New York
papers.
‘The Infant Drummer who plays at the Tabernacle
this evening, was in our office this morning with his
uncle, and exhibited to us those remarkable faculties
which make him one the wonders of the age. lie is
but two years and four months old, remarkably bright
and interesting in appearance, besides being as beauti
ful as any child we ever saw. 1 Lis uncle, after in
troducing him to us in a formal manner, lifted him up
to the table, and gave him his drum and sticks. lie
immediately beat the roll as furiously and scientifically
as any old drummer in the army 5 after which he gave
us Hail Columbia and Yankee Doodle. lie also whis
tled several tunes with wonderful precision and exact
ness.
This wonderful little fellow is a native of Georgia—
was born in Macon, Bibb county, in February, 1849
at the age of three months he began to notice tunes and
try to keep time with his hand—at eight months he com
menced playing on the drum, and at niue months could
whistle a tune. Ilis gentleness and baby like appear
ance, as well as his quick and pleasant obedience to his
unolo and Mr. Thomas, who has him in charge, are al
most as wonderful as his musical talents. lie will per-,
form at the Tabernacle to-night, and we advise every,
body to go and hear hint.—iVegt York Day Book, JM.e
27.
From the (N.Y.) Picayune, June 28.
Every one remembers the sensation tljat was created
in this town somo few months ago by the advent,ofa
baby drummer. A few days since \vo were visited by
a still more extraordinary prodigy. JJe ,is enly -two
years and a half ,of age, from Macqn, Georgia, and his
name is Bepsou A. English. Although he is a year,
younger than the former one, ho is his superior in every
respect, and what is more, is not at all bashful, and can t
be frightened out of his drum sticks by a crowd of peo
ple. This little fellow is accompaned to the city by his
parents. We do not know what are their intentions in
regard to him, but we advise them by all means to give
the public a chance to see and hear him in some suitable
place. If he don’t astonish the community, it will as
tonish us.

Rail Road Celebration. —We understand
that the citizens of Oglethorpe and vicinity are making
preparations to celebrate the occasion of the arrival of
the first locomotive at that joint, and the completion
of the S. W. Rail Road. This Festival is set down for
the 10th, Thursday next, and will doubtless be a bril
liant and joyous affair. ‘
State Rail Road.
From the report of the State Finanoe Committee,
just published by authority, we glean the following
items of interest. A recent examination of the Road
front Atlanta to the Tunnel (10G miles) has been made
with the following results:
OF TIIE RAIL.
“The entire length of the State Road to Chattanooga
on the Tennessee river is 138 miles. Four kinds of
Iron rail are used on the road 5 thus:
From Atlanta to Casy’s water station, a plate or flat
bar, - - - - - - 5 miles.
From Casy’s to a short distance beyond the
Chattahoochee river, a bridge or U. rail, - 5 miles.
From that point to Ackwork, a plate or flat
bar, 24 miles.
From Aekworth to Kingston, the bridge or
Cl rail, - - - - - 25 miles.
From Kingston to Calhoun, a plate rail, 21 mile*.
From Calhoun to Dalton, a flange rail of 40
tons per mile, - - - - 20 miles.
From Dalton to Chattuiinooga, a flange rail
of 50 tons per mile, - - - 38 miles.
This statement exhibits tbe fact that fifty miles of
the State Road is laid with a plate or flat bar rail. It
should be borne in mind that this rail lias been in use
since the commencement of business on tlie road, say
1545. It is much worn—broken in many places, and
would be very dangerous, but for the numerous repair
ing parties, distributed along the distance engaged, ac
tively in patching where needed. It apjveacs to us that
every particle of the flat bar should lit* removed, at the
earliest practicable moment.’’
OF THE SV r ERST It V CTW R E AND BRIDGES.
“The superstructure of the road to the tunnel is in
process of an early and- thorough renewal.
The Bridges were carefully examined, and it gives
us pleasure to say, that they have been made stronger
and more secure than when first erected under the su
pervision of Col. Long. In this remark we do not iu
clade the bridge over the Chattahoochee, as that is so
shortly to be superseded by the very superior bridge
nearly completed by the contractor, Mr. Denmead.
The apprehensions wlueh we knew were enter
tained and freely expressed during the bust year as to
the Bridges and superstructure, have been discovered
by us, on examination, vow to be unfounded.*’
CARS AND LOCOMOTIVES.
“Belonging to the road at this time are thirteen Lo
comotives, of which seven have been purchased since
April, 1848 —and which may be esteemed good :
4 Passenger cars,
2 Baggage cars,
4 Box cars, and.
6 Platform cars.
Tlte road needs at this time additionally:
10 Passenger ears,
200 Box cars,
100 riatforin ears,
4 Baggage cars, and
15 Locomotives.
In the absence of Legislative provision for a moder
ate equipment, as above suggested, ill view in some de
gree, to- render the State Road less dependent than it
: is, and has ever been, at least until a Legislature shall -
assemble, we have advised Mr. Mitchell to negotiate at
s/nce, if practicable, with the several Rail Rid compa
nies connected with the State Road s the put chase from
them of fifty box and platforirv cars.”
The committee recommend as follows Z
“Depots, large, substantial and secure, arc wanted at
several points; indeed, we think they should be pro
vided at every important point along the road.
A machine-shop with capacity for every purpose of
the road, should be erected at or near Kingston or
Adairsville, so as to enable Locomotives requiring re
pair, to be put in order, without traversing the whole
length of the road.
It occurs to u, that upon the completion, of the
Milledgeville Gordon Rail Road, tle Penitentiary
might readily, and most profitably to the State, be con
verted into a shop for the manufacture of Cars for the
use of the State Road only. The employment of con
vict labor in this form, will prove more profitable to the
State, and be less liable to the objections which are
constantly and speciously made, to bringing such labor
into competition with other mechanic labor.”
The Committee also express themselves opposed to
a sale of the Road, for Educational or other purposes,
by a labored, and to us, a sound argument.
SOURCES OF SUPPLY.
“Under a liberal and proper policy, we venture to
assert, that she will in five years, be in the receipt of a
nett income from the road, of not less than half a
million of dollars annually. That such an anticipa
tion is not extravagant, lei us refer to the sources of
supply, all of which are connected intimately with the
business of the State Road ;

In addition to the roads enumerated, built and in pro
gress, may be added the roads of Alabama ami South
Carolina, as also the extension of the lliwassie Road,
from Knoxville, East Tennessee, into Virginia, to
Lynchburg, a point east of the Alleghany mountains —
this latter extension rendering the States of Kentucky
and Virginia, and a portion of North Carolina, tribu
tary to our Road. In fact, through the instrumentality
of some of the roads in progress beyond our limits,
the Cumberland, Tennessee, (Jhio and Mississippi must
necessarily furnish passengers and freights. Nor
should we omit the important fact, that throughout the
greater part of the entire length of the Coad (13b
miles,) we have a dense, active, industrious and thriving
population, the products of whose labor are to be
borne to market over this road, and its return freights.
Business of the Western Atlantic Rail Road from
the 15th Sept. 1845, to 30 th April, 1851, inclusive.

From tlje last table, it \vill be seen that the business of
tho Road, the present year, will reach nearly $300,000,
ifthe same ratio is continued for the remaining 5 months.
Under the circumstances, this is a very flattering ex
hibit of the condition of the Road, and of its prospect
ive income to the State, when placed under proper
equipment aud more efficient management.

Drunkenness.
In all probability to this cause may he attributed
nine tenths of.all the ills of fortune to which the human
family are subject, and to go through the various steps
by which the sober man descends into that horrible con
dition of confirmed inebriation, would fill more pa-res
than can. be written. But enough can be said to show
that step by step is taken to secure that wretched doom
tliat many are now suffering, who can tell the time
when home and friends were smiling and kind. It
a well known fact, that as much has been done in. the
way of reforming public abuse as can well be done nr
that shape. Societies have been farmed- and every
meaans, human and Divine, appear to have been ex
hausted, and to but little effect. Public opinion e-v*a
appears to have lost its force. Lam aware that this
enormous, monstrous evil is gaining ground in this vi
cinity, and how to arrest its progress claims the united
effort of all sober men. And, unless something be
done, soon, I am fearful many, very many, will fill
drunkards’ graves that might be useful members ofio
ciety. To this end might there not be anew mode
that could be used for this jmrjxjse? Suppose the so
ber man would take one who hits fallen, raise him. give
him some comfort by clothing him and taking some
friendly notice of him, so far as to let hint know that be
is yet one of the human family, provide him labor ac
cording to his physical strength, and gradually as the
disease disappears—(for a disease it is.) This would
be striking at the end of the monstrous evil. The class
\ of drunkards are fast increasing in our city and ooun
. try: and from the utter neglect shown them by sober
men, I am under the impression that they will fall upon
l the country a disgraceful item of public support. I
have known one instance in which the plan proposed
fully succeeded. At least ten years have passed,since
I saw the drunken man taken up from the ditch, and
he lias not returned thereto, but is now carrying on a
successful business, and sustains an honorable reputa
tion, and is redlh ed by all as a perfectly sober person.
