They were about six nnd a half miles from Columbus last, night. The camp will he moved on Monday to a point about twelve miles from Columbus. The first line will be run from Columbus to Albany, and we learn will probably go near the following places; ns near as practicable with the s^vey: Cottage Mill, Jamestown, Richland, Dawson and Albany. After this survey is com pleted the route from Columbus to the Florida line in the direction of Tallahassee will he run. The corps is splendidly equipped and under the field direction of Engineer J. L. Cowan. Within one week after the first meeting of business men to discuss this enterprise the work of surveying the route W’as begun. There was no noise or 28,619 flourishing of trumpits about this enterprise. Our business men took hold of it in a quiet way and in the same manner they propose to push if to a successful completion. Gcorgin Midland Notes. The trains crossed the iron bridge over Bull Creek yesterduy. This bridge is a splendid and graceful structure, built by the Phoenix Bridge Company, nnd is sixty-five feet above the water. Willis’Creek trestle is nearly finished. Train 8 will pass over it by the middle of this week, after which track laying will not he interfered with by streams for a long distance. The contractors will put down about one mile of track per day. The telephone line is being extended to Cold Spring, which is the headquarters for Captain James nnd the Chattahoochee Brick Company. The work on Flint river niers is being rapidly pushed and there is no apprehension now of stoppage from high water if it should come. The telephone line will be soon extended to the Flint river camp, making it about fifty-three miles long. A lot of fiat cars for the Midland arrived yes terday. During the week the road has received about twenty-five cars of steel rails. The ships which are loaded with rails for this road seem to always get in port and generally on time. Some of the new roads in Georgia have had fun with delayed ships, we learn. It is confidently expected this road will be en tirely graded and most of the rails down for the entire distance between Columbus and Griffin by February 1 next. The remaining eighteen miles to McDonough will he completed very soon thereafter. The track is being put in splendid condition and fast time can he made on such a road. The passenger equipment has been largely con tracted for. The conches will he the very hand somest Jackson & Sharp can build. That is de scription enough to describe the cars as luxu rious, handsome and of best quality. Several new settlers are preparing to move up on the line of the Midland. Among these are Hirsch Bros., of Seale. This progressive, wealthy pointed a committee to visit Columbus and see what could be done. “Should this road passthrough Stewart county our citizens will cheerfully grant the right of way and all the material aid in their power.” A Macon special to the New York Times says : “The Macon and Athens Railroad Company be gan work yesterday on their proposed extension to Florida, starting in ten miles below Perry, Ga., with fifteen laborers. Legal steps have been taken to-day by the Macon and Florida Air Line Company to stop them, as they claim to control both the Lane and Thorp charters, the only two granted by the legislature from Macon to Florida. The locating engineers of the latter railroad are now in Dooley county, and the road is being pushed forward rapidly. It will open a new and much more desirable route to Florida when com pleted. Connections are to be made with various railroads at Gainesville, Fla. Jefferson Lane, the principal contractor, is now in New York at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.” Headquarter* for AY odd luff l*re*ent* a! Nehomburg’N. Solid Silverware. Silver Plated Ware. Bronzes.

The B ut or Cut Off. Early last night a break was discovered 1 the Cutlihart Hants It. The Cuthbert Liberal, In speaking of the Co lumbus and Florida, says: “ We have known from the commencement of the Georgia Midland that a connection south of Columbus must lie made. The Chattahoochee river is too uncertain to he depended upon. There is no doubt that the route by Cuthbert nnd Bain- bridgo to Tallahassee is the most practicable for the road. And it is equally certain that by Cuth bert is the most practicable route to Albany. From Tallahassee to St. Marks, on the gulf, a road is already built which will bo donated to the new road when it is completed. Prior to the war, all the goods for Middle Florida were shipped into St. Marks, and all the cotton and tobacco grown there went to northern markets through this port. The road built to Tallahassee would give a direct outlet to the gulf, through a port with amide depth of water to admit vessels of sufficient si>.e to carry out and in ail freight handled by the road. It would give to Colum bus a move direct line to the West Indies and South and Central American ports than any other inland city of the south. In addition to tins, the road could connect at Bainbridge with the Savannah, Florida and Western and at Tallahassee wit li the Florida Rail way and Navigation Company to Fcrnan- dnm, giving it the advantage of two direct routes to Atlantic ports. At Bainbridge it would meet the bouts that ply the Flint and Apalachicola rivers to Apalachicola, giving another gulf outlet in tlmt direction. At the mduth of the Flint river it will find the Pensacola and Atlantic, a hianch of the great Louisville and Nashville route, leading direct to Pensacola, Mobile and New Orleans. If a branch he built to Albany it 1 will connect with the Brunswick and Western \ there, direct to Brunswick, giving it the advan- ! taRes of a third Atlantic port. When we remem- | B F.

The steam ginnery of Messrs O. C. & Will Tor- bert at Society Hill, Ala., was destroyed hv fire Friday evening, together with about four bales of cotton. The fire was accidental, and we un derstand that there was no insurance. This is the second time this lull that these gentlemen have lost their gin house. They have the sym pathy oftheir numerous friends in their misfor tune. A Money Thief Captured. Yesterday Bailiff Abney had a lively chase al ter an Alabama thief. Friday night John Drake, celored, stole $19 from Tony Wright, a negro liv ing on Mr. George Young’s plantation in Russell county. He came to this city, but was followed and pointed out to the bailiff yesterday morning at Springer’s corner. When the officer went to arrest him he took to liis heels, and a lively chase ensued. Four negroes aided Bailiff Abtiey and they finally overhauled Drake in the park. He was brought back and turned over to the Alabama authorities.

The men who are building the Georgia Mid land are no adventurers. They are practical business men, and they mean business. They must and will have a southern connection for their road. A glance at the names of the mem bers of tiie executive committee, who have charge of the preliminary work, will convince any man that there is something more than gas behind the movement. But we must not suppose that the road will certainly be built by Cuthbert. Nor should our people feel discouraged because two efforts to build the road have proven failures. The greatest enterprises that have blessed tlie world have been built upon the ruins of stupend ous and frequent failures. The road must be built and Cuthbert must have it. But it will not come os a matter of course. We must work for it. Our future depends upon it. With it our Advancement in the next decade would surpass the hopes and expectations of the most sanguine. Without it, we are done. Who will move in the matter?” Another Comment. The Lumpkin Independent has the following to sny of the Columbus and Florida: “The prospect for building a railroad from Columbus to Florida is again being agitated, and is attracting more than usual attention. Several prominent citi zens of Columbus have procured a charter and subscribed $5000 for having the surveys made. An engineer corps has been secured, and was to have left Columbus one day this week. Two lines will be surveyed; one running from Columbus to Albany, and the other to the Georgia line in the direction of Tul- .lalmssce. In speaking of the importance of this now road to Columbus, Mr. G. Gunby Jordau says: “The Buena Vista railroad is hurting us. The Americus, Preston and Lumpkin has almost actually come to our warehouse doors and takes our cotton away from us. The Pensacola and At. lantic took a part of our trade. Yes, we are being damaged and must get our rightful trade back.” “The citizens of Cuthbert and Bainbridge are becoming Interested in the matter and will en deavor to secure the southern connection.
