For the Citizen. j
Rejoicing* of tlie Democracy.
Mr. Editor:—Just at this time the Demo !
cracy of Georgia are giving vent to the very
greatest inconceivable Never be
fore, “ within the memory of the oldest inhabitant,”
was the like known. The great celebrations in
the northern cities in honor of the successful
laying of the cable, may have been accompa
nied with more pageantry and show; but iu the
face of every Democrat you meet, in the path,
the public road, or in the streets, is worn a self
complacent smile, with an air of self importance
as though the greatest achievement of the age
was laid fir in the shade, because under the
Administration of Joseph E. Brown the W. i
A. Railroad has paid some moDey into theSt.itu
Treasury. All of which we admit, and, as a
Georgian, wonderfully glad that we can make
the admission. It is nothing more thau should
have been done long ago, and every citizen of
the State, regardless of all party, should now
begin to inquire into the tardiness of common
justice to the people in connection with this
important work; and not only so, but to go a
little farther, and know for himself the Cause of
perpetrated wrongs, and of the perversion of
violated trusts in the management of the peo
ple’s money arising from their own great work.
If men would thus act—aud it appears to be a
standard of high honor that they should—the
eyes of the people would be opened to the past
management of the Road, which would iuduco
them hereafter to hold in the utmost horror the
mere partisan who would prostitute the vital
interests of the State by a disgraceful pander
ing to party interests.
Now, for one, we are willing to give Gov.
Brown all the credit due him iu directing aud
looking after the affairs of the Road. Not one
particle which ought to be placed to his credit
should be taken from him, for most assuredly
he will need all he can get, whether deserved
or not. He is entitled, to say the least, (and
thus far we go and no farther), to the credit of
doing more than any of his illustrious prede
cessors ; or, to speak with more accuracy, and
indeed with more truth, ho has been merely the
organ of an aroused public opinion, whose po
tent influence would long ago have been felt if
it had been fully aware of the many corruptions
intimately connected with the control of the
State Road. So, after all the noise, it must be
manifest that Gov. Brown has done nothing
more than any other man would have done un
der similar circumstances. We are not dis
posed to disparago (far from it) the integrity or
honesty of the present incumbent of the Exec
utive chair; but what we mean to eay, and in
tend to say, is, that after the expositions in the
last Gubernatorial canvass, in connection with
the State Road, no member of the Democratic
party of Georgia, who might have been placed
at tlie head of affairs, would have dared or con
templated the idea of squandering the money
of the people, the just earnings of their proper
ty, for personal ends and party purposes. We
have ever boeu an ardent friend of the Road,
and always opposed to its sale, and once had
the honor to record our vote against its sale,
and, if similarly situated, would take the great
est pleasure again of recording our vote against
it. The man who would, of either party, if in
his power, use or convert the legitimate proper
ty of the people to partisan purposes, would be
acting iu derogation of the honor and privileges
of a freeman. But as the people have nearly
arrived at a proper point on this question, it is
confidently believed that the future is filled
with brightness. So long as the dear people
continue to have an eye to the State Road mat
ters, just so long will Mr. Gov. Anybody receive
money into the Treasury; but it they should
ever again sleep over their just rights and dear
est interests, in this connection, as they did up
to the fair opening of the canvass last year,
somebody else will get all their money while
they are having pleasant dreams of the glorious
Democracy.
The next thing we will hear from the Demo
cratic press of Georgia will be the giving of
reasons why the Road has not paid under for
mer Administrations. But, perchance, in their
efforts to place the present Administration in
advance of any other read of in the annals of
Georgia, they have already furnished us with a
clue to the main reason, and very unwittingly
got entirely out of hearing of the music. Hoar
what the Federal Union of the 7th September
says, the channel through which all the good
deeds of the “ powers that be’’ must come:
“The Road is kept in excellent order, and
moro repairs have been made during the last
year on the track than were made in ny one
of the last several years. There are over three
hundred hands at work on the line of tlie Road,
and have been most of the summer. All em*
pleyees are paid monthly. Every debt against
the Road is paid promptly at the end of each
month, and no new debts are permitted to ac
crue. Not a dollar of the mouthly payments
into the State Treasury is from any source other
than that of the nett earnings of the Road. Up
on this subject we speak advisedly. The $33,-
000 paid iu for tlie last month (August) added
to the different amounts heretofore paid into
tlie Treasury from the Ist of March last, make
up the aggregate of $150,000 nett earnings for
the last six mouths. Is not this a pretty fair
semi annual return made by the people’s ser
vants having the management of our great State
work ? We opine it is. What will the croak
ers say ?’’
Well, we are not able to anticipate the an
swer of a croaker; but we see the fear of an
enraged and insulted people in the paying out
of their money. The result of their labor aud
toil has made Democracy do what the highest
principles of honor and justice failed to accom
plish. Now, according to the showing of the
Federal Union, the amount paid into the State
Treasury for the last six months, ending in Au
gust, under the most disadvantageous circum
stances, was one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars 1 Under this statement, then, for twelve
months,'the amount would reach three hundred
thousand dollars I Now, we don’t ask croakers
anything, but we ask all sensible men how it
comes to pass that, when tlie expenses of the
Road are very heavy, that $300,000 can be
paid into the Treasury, when heretofore tiery
year the Road brought now debts, in the shape
of higher taxes upon the public? This is a
fair question, and let Democracy answer it;
but, for goodness’ sake, don’t nil speak at once,
and please don’t let loose the sluices of abuse
upon the Know Nothings !
Last year we had the pleasure of hearing, for
the first time, the Hon. B. 11. Hill. There are
many, doubtless, in the city of Macon, who
heard his last effort at that place. This was
tho first time we heard him, and after hearing
him again in other places, we do not wonder
that tho scajos have fallen from tho eyes of the
Georgia Democracy aboqt tfip manqgement of
the Hoad. He awakened the people to a Bonsn
of the existing corruptions connected with tho
Itoad and its management. I recollect well, in
his speech at Macon, when speaking about tho
.Ltdto Jload. after having held up its manage*
ment and Its managers to thp audience in a
light well merited, because ho proved his ease
as he went, he intimated tho Rtrong probabili
ties of bis deloat; but said if he could know
that be was in tho least instrumental in inau
gurating anew policy, he woqld feel prouder of
his position than to bo crowned &aug or wear
the diadem of a Caesar. And, although voted
down by mere numerical strength, his political
friends are proud of his achievements last year
before tho people of his native State. His bodl
and independent stand, and fearless expositions
of the doings of the dominant party, have
added to Jiis lame and endeared him to his
friends. And wo wish the idea borne in mind 1
that, at the time, BeD Hill was laying a founda
tion for 4 change of policy promotive q! the iiir
terests of the poopie, in defiance of jhp furui of
numbers. Tbe very men who now huve the
effrontery to como out in the light of day and
claim lor their party all the creuit lor tho ‘
good result* in the management of the Statu j
Road, aro the very identical menwho toil
ed night and day in hewing alaudora upon
the noblest on ol Georgia, iu etylo and
manner such as we seldom, it ever, wim si iu
this country. So the Democratic puty of Geor
gia may pile upon one of the noblest spirits iu
j the land mountains of abuse; but the lanio Mil

; of the people when the “cohesive potvef ol

For the CiiiZ u.
JltM'on A Briumuick Railroad.
Mr. Eitok : It uj pcuis to me that this
would be a very favorble time to nuke an
other effort to raise a subscription to stock
! for the building of rhe Macon & Brunswick
Railroad. A flattering prospect lor a
good fall trade lias bceu Somewhat damaged
by* the yellow fever being iu Savannah.—
Cotton being our great staple, anything
transpiring to impede its progress to mar
ket seriously affects the Sale and price, there
j by throwing a damper upon all other branch
les ol business. In these days ol steam ami
1 lightning lines, every moment’s delay may
prove ruinous to those who are compelled
to hold on to their Cotton, from unnecessary
delay, besides being compelled to p ay inti r
! est on money a greater length of tun*'. As
all trade depends more or less upon Cotton,
j ft nd every one depends, to a certain extt-ui,
upon trade tor a livelihood, it becomes every
one who expects to remain here—uo mat
ter in what capacity—to render his mite
in opening a ready transit for our main sta
ple, so that it can at all times be pushed on
to a market.
I have been informed that a large portion
of the Cotton to be purchased in the Mont
gomery market this season would have
passed through this place, if the fever re
ports had not got out.
Macon is the only inland city of commer
cial importance where contagious diseases
will not spread. Time has proved this. In
1854, while the yellow fever was raging in
Savannah and Augusta, there was a large
number of imported cases daily arriving
and stopping in all parts of the city, all of
whom were nursed with care and attention
by their friends, and in no instance w'as it
known to spread—not even to the nurses.
’54 was unusuallly hot, and very favorable
for fever; but alter the plant was imported
and planted in our midst, for the want of
impure air to feed upon, it withered and
died without leaving a root behind. Situa
ted as Macon is—so easy of access that it
can be visited at ail times without fear of
contagious diseases—will it not be a place
of considerable mercantile importance, if the
citizens will improve her advantages, when
it can be so easily done ‘!
The Engineer who surveyed the route to
Brunswick enumerated sufficient advantages
to have insured the building of the Road,
and in all probability it would have been
commenced before this, if the citizens had
not depended upon State aid for its con
struction. To make this Road of the most
advantage to Macon, a sufficient amount
of stock should be owned by the citizens,
so as to have a voice in directing the affairs
of the Road. Otherwise, Macon could be
made a mere Watering Station, and derive
but little profit from the enterprise. An
amount sufficient to insure the building of
the Road could be raised in this city, if all
would take a proper interest in the matter ;
and, as it seems to be the opinion of every
one that it would be for the general good, a
proper direction is all that is necessary to
insure success. There are at least one
thousand persons within the city, composed
of mechanics, clerks and merchants, that
could take one share of one hundred dollars
each, and .pay it in by instalments, and
scarcely miss the amount. The City could
subscribe to $250,000 without inconvenience.
Capitalists and real estate owners could
make the amount up to one half million dol
lars. This amount for Macon would insure
the building of the RoaJ. The taxes would
not be very onerous to the citizens. It would
take five years to build the Road. The city
could sell fifty thoimn 1 dollars of bonds
each year, and by that means save a large
amount of interest, and would not be pay
iDg it upon the whole amount of slock until
the stock was paying a dividend much larger
than the interest paid upon the bonds.
I wish to oall the attention of the reader
once more to the fact that this is tor ihe
benefit of all. You cannot point out a sin
gle branch of coiruneice or industry that
would not be benefitted, more or less by the
building of this Road, The population will
increase, the value of property be enhanced,
and labor will be iu more demand—there
being more consumers there will be more
trade, and so on, to the end of the chapter.
The directors can make it to every one’s in
to a small extent, to be a stockholder. Inter
est, the first place, by alio wing all stockholders
to have a free iide, once a year, over the
Road, when the annual meeting is held;
also, to sell stockholders passage tickets
over the Road at all times for a less amount
than to others—something upon the prin
ciple that a merchant sells to his clerk some
thing near cost—the free-ride tickets trans
ferable, when the owners do not wish to
go themselves. The other pm .lege only
transferable with the stock. 2nd. Discrim
inate in favor of the stockholder’s mer
chandize, cotton, &c., even when then the
cotton had been sold to other parties, there
by insuring it to go over their own Road
and to the stockholder a little better price
in the sale of his cotton. People aie very
apt to act in accordance with their interests.
When a Road is built those adjoining derive
the most benefit, and if they fail to contri
bute towards its construction the directors
and stockholders would be justifiable in spec
ulating upop th* pi in every honorable way.
Those who build the Road should derive the
most benefit. It is generally known that
wherever a Road has been built lands ad
joining have enhanced in value tenfold, and
‘the owners, in most instances, Os those very
lands refusing to aid the Road by taking one
dollar’s w o f'th pf slppk. \VJ:i (e ijjis is thp
case, the director's should usj; their Jcnowl- j
edge to the Road's profit. The estimated !
cost of this Road is one and a half million
of dollars. I thL.k it is a safe calculation to !
pount that $500,000 expended for the befit!
lands along the toute would sell for three
times the cost, after it was certain that the 1
Iload would be built. In many instances' 1
the entire lot of land could bo bought for
what is paid for the light of \yay alter a
knowledge that the Road will bo built has
increased thpir value. It app< ats to me that
the directors In this enterprise ought to be
able financiers enough to put this work in
course of construction, and depend upon the
maxim that those who help themselves are
the first to obtain aid from others.” It is an
easy to bpild a Road w hen >.ll the mpf.ey is
; raided, and very little credit < api.pj by pay
i igg it pgt. Those only caru fame who can
I Ciggb.qt with geeming obstacles ant] ueyiae I

Desitli of nnothor Citizen.— lt
is our sad duty to record the death, about two
weeks since, at Northampton, Mass., of Mr.
Moses D. Barues, Watchmaker and Jeweller of
this city. His disease, we believe, was con
sumption, and when he lelt last summer lorthe
North, was in very feeble couditiou; but from
accounts that niched us, we had indulged the
hope that his health had been much improved,
by a sojourn among his native hills. But alas I
that hope was frustrated by tiding* received
here, on l\ edncd*y, of his demi-e, and by the
return of his bereaved widow, the day follow
ing. Mr. Barnes was much esteemed in this
community by a largo circle of friends and ac
quaintances who uow mourn his early depart
ure from the scenes of earth. Os all those there
are none who do nut extend their heart-felt
sympathy to Mrs. B. in this her hour of almost
utter loneliness and deep aflliction.

Mr. Kennedy has made a mistake, as Savannah
is not on the direct and through telegraph line.
Macon is the proper place for the connexion.
Tlie Clirlstlui) Spiritualist.—
The next num er of this Bi-m .nthly paper
will not be issued before the 27th inst. The
delay has been necessary to give us an op
portunity to test the public sentiment, more
fully, as (,o the prospect of the success of the
experiment. On this point we have every
reason to be satisfied. We believe that the
paper will receive sufficient patronage to
defray the expenses incident to its public i
tiou, notwithstanding the predictions of
croakers whose ‘ l wish was father to the
thought,' 1 that such a publication would die
a natural death, in Macon, or anywhere in
the South! Let the hundreds of Spiritual
ists in Macon and region round about see to
it that the scoffers of our sublime philoso
phy cannot triumph, after this fashion, over
their most sacred feelings and principles, but
by an earnest work, in behalf of the “ Spir
itunli-’T,” put it In a condition to meet all as
saults that may be made against the cause

The Press ox Revivals.— The comments
and announcements ot the secular press upon
the revivals show, we fear, that the brother
hood is not at home on that subject. For illus
tration, the Atlanta American announces that
a “wonderful revival” ip that city, ‘‘is just now
in full hlftitl, and promises the achievement of
incalculable good.” One of our Northern Geor
gia friends speaks of it as a “sQusgtion,” and a
i Uolupabus print some time ago announced that ;
! the revival there was “'discontinued,” while an
other pronounced it only abated.”— Georgia
; Tele/rajph.
i When we come to consider that most mod- |
| ura revivals are attended with great excite- j
meet, with much of the storm and tempest and
I lightning and earthquake, (say nothing of the
’ fire) which distinguished the manifestations on i
’ 4 tt. Hiiuit, upder the old Jewish Dispensation, ;
j we do not see but there is a peculiar liuieas in j
i the phraseology ustd to deseiibe the process ,
iby which such revivals arc manufactured ! In

Dead . —Mr. J. Beattie, jr., well known to
many of our citizens, as Agent for several Pa
tent Inventions, and who was in Macon, the
past summer, engaged in disposing of the right
to lugersoll’s Patent Hoop Tie, for baling Cot
ten, died, a few weeks since, at the Brandreth
House, in New York, a victim to the yellow
fever, which he contracted at quarantine ground,
Staten Island. It is stated by the Montgomery
Advertiser that he was a passenger on board
the screw steam propeller Montgomery, sailing
between Savannah and New York, about three
weeks since, going northward. On arriving in
New York City the steamer was quarantined,
owing to the existence ol yellow fever in Sa
vannah, and the passengers were compelled to
go ashore at the quarantine station, (Staten
Island,) where they were kept two days and a
half, in compliance with the orders of the port
physician. Here Mr. B. contraoted the yellow
fever, and died after coming up to New York
City, (at the Brandreth House) having been ill
just five days. Ilia remains were sent to Ver
mont for interment.
Mr. B. was a gentleman of many of those ge
nial qualities of head aud heart which made
friends and attached them to him with bands
of steel. Peace to his ashes.
Personal.— We had the pleasure, the
other day, of taking by the hand, the Hon.
Alfred H. Colquitt, Representative elect from
Baker, who was in town on a visit to his rela
tives. Ho looks well, aud ready for a legisla
tive campaign.
Dr. J. C. C. Blackburn, the gentlemanly and
talented editor of the Lumpkin Palladium,
honored our sanctum with a brief call, on his
way to Augusta, last week. The Doctor has
seen some aftlietion, lately, and his visit east
ward lias reference to the improvement of his
eye-sight, which has been impaired. The
“Palladium” is to be enlarged and otherwise
improved, and we commend it to the notice of
our merchants, as an excellent advertising
medium, for Stewart and adjacent counties.
Dead.—Rev. Dr. Mandeviile, Pastor of
the Ist Presbyterian Church of Mobile, died
in that city, on Sunday morning, last of Yel
low Fever.
Upson County. —CM. P. W. Alexan
der, Capt. J. W. Green, Wm. Traylor, W. W.
Hartsfield and D. W. Womble, have been ap
pointed delegates to represent the American
party of Upson county, in a Convention to be
held in Griffin on the 27th inst., for the purpose
of nominatiug a candidate for Solicitor for the
Flint Judicial District.
America ti Nomination*.— We
learn from the Columbus Sun that the Conven
tion oi the American party, which convened in
Amerinus on Saturday, nominated for .Tadgcr v(*
the Fataula Circuit, James L. Wimberly, Keq.,
of Lumpkin, and for Solicitor General, Jesse
Norwood, Esq., of Cusseta.
Revivals in t Americus. —The revival men
tioned in our last is still going on with consid
erable interest. About 35 persons have con
nected themselves with the Methodist Church,
and others are expected to join other denomi
nations. Beside the meetings that are held
daily at the Methodist Church, our Baptist
brethren are holding service every evening at
their meeting house, whi?h we learn will con
tinue during the week.— Sumpter Republican.
The Americus Press should not be so one
sided as they are in their accounts of the do
ings in that part of the religious world. We
have, for example, seen no notice, as yet, of
the large four days’ meeting recently held at
Plains of Dura, in Sumpter county, and of the
revival in progress in that vicinity. True, the
denomination alluded to is not quite so popular
as some others, but this ought not to be a rea
son for the suppression of facts which transpire
within their bailiwick. We, therefore, take the
liberty of stating that the State Convention of
Universalists held its annual session at the
Plains, last month—that there were ten evangel
ists present from several States, and that there
were 32 additions to the Church at that place,
as the result of the labors of the occasion.

a half dollars, mailed to them, will bring
I you promptly a whole, half or quarter tick

Saturday, and as money is always welcome,
should you, like others, be found with some
twenty, fifty or seventy thousand dollars,
y ui will be able to convince your friends
that you selected the right ticket.
