n- j Ef;£Bsawuw GRI7ITN, JANUARY 27, 1053. We want Money. We are trader he necessity of having money, and therefore obliged to call on those indebted to this office to settle up.— No one can consider this an unreasonable or improper request. Wc have to pay cash for almost every expense we incur in ] the prosecution of our business, and surely we have a right to look for a response from our patrons at the ciul of the year.— To those who have already attended to us wc return our sincere thanks ; and wc tru>t others who have not, will call on us without delay. Wc have no alternative; we are obliged to have money; we cannot wait longer. To those who do not know what amount they owe, we are always rea dy to give that information. Our Jab Offioe. Wc have just furnished our office with j an additional amount of no&r job type’ which, together with those on hand, most ly purchase 1 year before last, make onr job office complete, for the execution ojj pam- i phlets. card*) handbills, or any other work | in our line, which we are determined to do j in the best style and on the most moderate j terms. Thankful for a large increase of pubUe patronage during the last year, we resprofully solicit a continuance of the same, pledging ourself that we will work as cheap as any oue else in the State of Georgia. We are determined tic one shall underbid us in our prices. Education. The article on Education, which was coaim Viced in oar last paper, is finished in to-arty-s. u ttitt ttc touiui on rue irrsr paare. It is from an able pen, and will largely compensate for the trouble of pe rusing it. Mr. Wadley’3 Resigna ion. The Dalton Tims of the 20th iust. an nounce • that it is now reduced to a certain tv that Mr. Wadley has resigned the office ■ of Superintendent of the State Road, his resignation to take effect from the loth of February next, when he will return to the Central Rail Road, where, we understand he will receive a salary of five thousand dollars for his services. Wc see it stated further that Mr. Yongc, of Atlanta, has been appointed to succeed Mr. Wadley on the State Road. Robison and Eldrecl’s Circus. Our friend Col Tidmarsh, the Agent o* thh old and world-renowned Circus estab lishment, dropped in on Monday last, and gave us an epitome of his last summer travels at the North. The company had) been well received, done well arid made monev. We did not know which most to admire, our old friend or the line carriage aud pair he was driving. The carriage is a splendid piece of workmanship, and the ! painting on the panuels beautiful. This old and popular company will exhibit here ! on Monday the 7th February next, atZeb ulon ori Tuesday the Bth, at Bartlesville on Wednesday the 9th, and at Forsyth on Thursday the 10th. “Good wine needs no bus!),” is an old proverb; and this company needs no recommendation from us. for it recommends itself wherever it goes. For particulars see advertisement and bills. Price of admission to the whole fifty cents. | The Mayoralty. There seems to bo considerable com mo- i tion already, in the under currents of our little city, towards providing a groat fath er to guile its future destinies. It is well enough to “take time by the forelock” in ! most matters, though in this we think J docs not come on until the first Monday in April. A meeting was called at the court house on last Saturday, but, owing to this cause we presume, there was but a slight attendance, and the meeting postponed. Wo have heard two or three names men tioned, and there may be others of whom we have not heard, or who have not yet been brought forward. First, there is Judge P. B. Cox. Eve ry body knows Judge Cox—cue of the “oldest inhabitants”—was here before the streets were grubbed out, or before we had regular preaching. Judge Cox is a good fellow, as every one knows—has •dusk to Gridin in all her difficulties—has never been behind the curtain in an emer gency, but whenever she has called for his services, lie has answered and been ready. Col. I*. W. A. Doyle is also spoken of by his friends. Col. Doyle is a worthy and gool c tizen, public sprite'! and energetic. II . 1 ui.so would make a good Mayor. Col. \V m. R. Phillips has also been looked to, and would fill the Mayor’s chair with grace, dignity and ability. Either of these gentlemen would make a good incumbent of the office; but as they cannot all be elected, the people must choose and determine between them, and others should they come forward. Savannah. Notwithstanding our “up-country pre judice,” there are few things from abroad give us more pleasure than to hear from time to time of the growing prosperity of the city of Savannah. The Republican of the 20th inst. states, that twenty-three ves sels passed out over the bar on the Thurs day previous, bound for different ports, and some eight or ten more were expected to leave the day following. Is UieCiaT.il I-o-; hi Giifflii? Why no, you goose, what makes you I think that ? There is no Small Pox, as tar as we know, within fifty miles of (bif fin. The last case here was about five yeats ago, and then nobody else took it but a poor little dog. The little dog took it and was killed, and that ended the small pox in Griffin. ” Spiritualism, Phrenology, Animal Magnet- j ism, &o. &o. Wc are informed that Professor Brack- ’ ■ ette, from Kentucky, will lecture at early I candle light, on Thursday and Friday j j nights of this week, and we hope he will; have a respectful hearing from our citizens.! Here lately, we had Rev. Mr. Harris, who, in five lectures told, or tried to tell all about our right to converse with the spirits of just meu who had departed this life. In looking at the Mountain Cove Jour nal, it speaks of disclosures, &e. from, as we-understand it, “the Spirit World.'' — What else? Why next, here comes mag netism and clairvoyance, who make equa pretensions aud quite as many disclosures. Take for example the disclosures of An drew Jackson Davis—this last has pub lished a book of disclosures, containing nearly oue thousand pages.. But next, j here comes Professor Brackette, on Phre ! uologv, the disclosures of which Will be j announced to the citizens of Griffin, in a j free lecture this evening (Thursday.) Well as we have heard all the rest, let us go and see what he has to say. Shouldn’t be surprised if he tells us something we nyver heard before. „ Status to Gen. Washington The House of Representatives on Mon day, the 18th hist, passed, minim covdra,- dicente, a resolution ropria ting Fifty Thousand dollars for erecting in Washing .tnn _Cit3L a Bronze ‘Equestrian Statue of Gen. George Washington : thus substan tially carrying out a resolution of Con gress of 1783, and, in the flash of a iuo ment, discharging a high and solemn duty, which had from time to time, for half a century, been moved in vain. We understand that Mr. Mili.s, whose I statue of Jackson is now the pride of Washington City and wonder of the age, is to be employed to erect the Sta tucof Washington. And now, as the Washington Monu ment moves on so heavily aud tardily, and has not yet been raised one-fourth its con templated height, and as both the monu ment and statue are intended to commem orate the virtues and services of the same great man, would it not be well to stop the monument right where it is, and finish by surmounting it with the statue ? We think it would be the very idea. The monument, as it now stands, would make a noble pedestal for a statue about twice the natural size, say from twelve to sixteen feet. ______ “Bill}? Bowlegs. v This old Indian Chief is not as unprmcJt pled as his movements would bespeak him. Billy, it appears, was disposed to keep faith with the white man, and go West, but has been actually coerced to another cource. The other Indians, it is stated, j , took his wife and children away from him i and forced him to object to the treaty and , flee into the Everglades. This at least is oue story, dt is also said that a younger and more energetic dndian has been ele vated to the Chieftaincy of the tribe over him, and the mass of them have determin ed to remain where they are or fight it out. I How all this news is obtained we do not i > know. • The Gendiner Fraud Henry May, Esq. and others, appointed by Government to search for Gardiner’s : silver mine in Mexico, for which Govern j ment pd:i! I'hu four hundred thousand clol- reached \\ ashlngton city. Their report has not transpired, but it is said will confirm the report that no mine could be found by the Commissioners, though they traveled six teen hundred miles on mules in search of it. A Washington letter says : Senator Soule, chairman of the Gardiner claim committee, will give the subject early at tention. Mr. May and his colleagues have brought witnesses with them to prove that the claim is a grand humbug. It is stated that Gardiner’s trial will proceed as soon as the facts already ascertained are com municated to the District Attorney. Ac counts say that Gardiner travelled with the Commissioners on their return as far as Havana, and then left them and has not returned to the United States. Rev.

Noith Alabama and Savecuali Rail Road The following interesting article came to baud through the Savannah Republican of Monday last. Wc have barely time in to-day’s paper to call attention to it I and make room for its insertion. We shah ; give it a more extended notice in our fu ture numbers. We agree with the writer that the lino is one which would bring an immense amount of cotton through to Sa-_ i vannah from North Alabama, besides otlu !er produce, merchandise, passengers, &c. ; The road could lie built for two millions of dollars or less. Indeed, commencing at | Griffin, aud using it as it was made, it ! would half build itself, aud yield splendid dividends when completed. In the pre-, sent plethoric state of the money market, there could be no difficulty in securing the funds for a project so promising. from ih>- Sv.n.irr.h Republican. Messrs. Editor* , — Permit me to call your attention to a projected line of Rail- j road, not put down on any maps, but! which, wlumi carefully examined, will be! found vastly to contribute to the trade! and commerce of Savannah, and the in-! crease of tonnage and passengers going over the Macon and Western and Central Railroads lfvou will examine the map of Ten nessee, Alabama and Georgia, and draw an air line from Memphis, Tennessee, to Savannah, Ge<'rgh), it will at once ap pear that Decatur, North Alabama, Grif fin and Mac.otT, Ga. are nearly upon that lina. A line of road, therefore, reaching from Memphis, Tenn. to Savannah, via Decatur, to Griffin, would at once be pre ferred above all rubers to Baltimore, Phil adelphia and Nt\* York, for all descrip tions of freight P mn the South and South west seeking those points; also forali merchandise shipped from the i cities seektup li ~” oOU Ri aud South-west J within its influence or range. It would also control a vast amount of travel which will otherwise take the East Tennessee and Virginia Railtoad. it: fact, it is the only iou;p, including all roads already made, or in cmit-mplaiion, which will .icarr# freight or l {—• ■v> k MS il,c East Tennessee am! Virginia route from North to Sou: h vrs Memphis. The roa i from Memphis to Decatur \ will be completed in three years at fur | thest (a distance ot less than two hun dred miles) under the charter of the Memphis and Charleston R. R. Cos. and the only portion of this contemplated new route to build is from Decatur, Ala. to Griffin, in Georgia, a distance of about 170 miles; and it is rather a temarkable fact, that, following the air line from De catur to Griffin, lea !s us through, or very near to the only practicable route known from North to Middle Alabama, to wit: through Morgan, Marshall, touching the lines dividing DeKalb and Cherokee from St. C’iair, and through the centre of Ben ton county, near Jacksonville, the county site, thence to near Gadsden, aud through Newnan, to Griffin. This Road would, to a very considera-! ble extent, drain the w hole of North Ala- j bama above and below the Muscle Shoals, which region of country is generally! known as the lennessee Valley, making I annually from seventy-five to one huu- 1 died thousand bales ot cot'on, varying | according to season, and with a plank i made to Gi k t-er; T#nu• woivt. thirty miles North of Decatur, Ala. from i ten to twenty thousand baies more would, in all piobability, seek its way to Savan- Upon reaching the Coosa Valley, froSc^ ,J!,ie > ‘ ,l a * Talladega county, the IUI!S irou & section of the at le.rst twenty thou sand ha I winch would be tributa ry to it. | Thus, it will bep(Ls eive ‘ i > lhiU in t!ie article of cottonaione?^ rro a d woul(1 iu * tersect a portion of eonnt^L-‘* e^and ' n S roni one hundred to one h umfredhK?. and twe,,l y thousand hales, and, uiih the rL plank road, or roads, could one hundred and thirty thousand baleML Again, goods purchased in Balti(r\ ,re ’ Philadelphia, or New York, would, most necessarily, he soot by way of vatmah, to supply all ti;e coun try intersected by ibis contemplated road to Memphis, I eim and beyond that point, to a poMCn pf West Tennessee. Mississip pi, Arkansas and . i Besides and would induce a considerable carrying iiatie all along Uie 11 from St, L'-nis, another arti , which she has*N® x * “Lange for utter pro'ije.s of Other set.* lions ot tiie counti v 1 And the -rrunG reasons why I ieve, all these anticipate*! reginh* will be real ized, is, in the fact mainly, that Decatur, North Alabama, vm this new route to Griffin, Georgia, is nearer Savannah than Chattanooga is to Charleston by railroad. The distance from Chattanooga to Charleston by railroad is four hundred and forty-four miles The distance from Decatur, Ala. t<> Griffin is 170 miles—the distance fiom Griffin to Savannah is 249 miles—mnkim in all, the distance from ! Decatgr to Savannah, 419 miles. But, allowing the road ut diverge at diffierent points, H is sufficient to establish the important fact, that Decatur will be as near bavannah foi height or travel, as Chattanooga is to Charleston Making a difference of length, oy railroad of 130 miles, and by the river of 185 miles in favor of ihe new mule tu Savannah—suf ficient, in my esti -iiiti:;:;, to overcome all competition by other lines. ihe distance in miles being so much in favor of this new Rom], it is confident ly believed am! maintained, that it is the only possible way to control the Cotton of the Tennessee Valley to the Atlantic I ports; because the Memphis & Charles ton Road can afford t<> carry cotton from Decatur to Memphis, and steamboats from Memphis to New Orleans for three dollars per bale including insurance, or, at most, throe dollars and twenty-five cents, hut, by the road from Decatur via Griffin to Savannah, it can be carried at tne same rate, because insurance will he saved. In this case, Ido not at all con ceive it doubtful, how the large hulk of cotton w ill go —dearly to Savannah—it being a wcli ascertained fact, that prices are generally better for North Alabama cotton at the Atlantic ports, than are re alized at the Gulf ports, which is suffi cient to induce it to go that way. Bu’ the present rates charged from the Ten nessee river to Savannah or Charleston, say $5 per hale including insurance, would not for a moment be submitted to by any planter or shipper, knowing the, difference in cost; consequently, no cot t,)r> can be expected with rnv show *' r j eason, to seek th(> A:la.i,ic pf.r;-., vfu u communication hv railr >; :> i, Memphis, unless this p'bjected toud ‘is j built. j Ihe country Ihruujh Marshal, and for | some distance through Cherokee, is moun tainous and rugged, but presents no for midable obstacle in building the Road —-it being intersected with valleys run ning in the direction of Gadsden, which approximates the air line already men tioned. I here can he no question, that the j freight and travel alieady mentioned, as I likely’ to lie brought on this line of road, i would yield a considerable revenue, and \ \ r j'jtke it, in fact, a good investment, at j fifteen thousand dollars per mile, or pr >- (,’bahly more. And*when viewed in all its . iinportatrt^jearings upon Savannah A Bal timore, York, it jis would* he | experienced in capita! to build it. j ■ ihe writer- trusts that enough has h!- j ready been stated, to point out its great ; importance, and to call public attention i b> it, and speedy action in getting surveys j ar d estimates made bv an experienced j engineer, and if he succeeds to this extent ! tor the present, he will remain satisfied, and will have accomplished the task he has undertaken being entirely satisfied as to the final result, when estimates and surveys are made. W. M. January, 1833. Gen. Pierce and the Abolitionists. Ever since the Cabinet appointments for the in-coming administration have been spo-_ ken of. the abolitionists have been trying to give matters a complexion favorable to themselves, In every cast of the dramatis persona to conduct affairs at Washington for the four years from and after the third | or one or two of their own! | kidney were certain to be incorporated. Mr. Dix, of New York, was held on to with snapping-turtle pertinacity, with a determination to shove him into the Cabi net whether the President elect was will ing ofnyt. t l t Sow m our huflphl^opinion (of course it is merely an inference) Mr. Pierce never thought seriously for the first time, of ap pointing Mr. Dix a member of his Cabinet, The whole talk about Mr. Dix has grown out of the efforts and wishes of the fresoil ers and abolitionists. We are confirmed in this opinion by the following letter, from the Washington correspondent of that rabid abolition sheet the New York Tri bune. The abolitionists find that Mr. Dix has let down at Washington—that they cannot get him in the ring—and this letter is written to ease him down quietly—and also, we suppose, in the hope that they can carry that pure patriot, Hon. Jeff. Davis, of Mississippi, off the turf with him. The facts may be true, as stated below, ; as far as they apply to Mr. Hunter in con j neetion with Mr. Dix, but we will venture I the assertion, not one word further. Mr. ; Hunter has no objection to a seat in the j Cabinet alongside of Mr. Medary or Mr. Davis, we will stake our word upon that. Jefferson Davis’s nomination too, is certain J*> be conlirmerr the ap-! probation of Mr. ’if (ne President j makes it. We have but little doubt, from what has 1 leaked out, through different channels, from the President elect, that his first con ception of a Cabinet was, to unite and amalgamate into one, every branch of the old Democratic party, upon the Union Compromise—to induce each branch to l drop its ultraism, and unite into one upon mutual concession. He has discovered this will not suit Seward, Dlx, and others of the freesoil and abolition stripe, and he has dropped them. The following is the letter, to which we IJiave reference: of the New York Tribune.] Cabinet Ass -.ira. Jan. 14, 1853. The Denip cra . tic Congressional hive is at this ‘ II excited a state as during the previous to the meeting of their late NAtitfl^ 11 convention. The trou ble grows out of Ablations made by Hon. on; ‘lU.hlU 1 . I ,] his recent flying visit to Washington lie promulgated the facts that Mr Hun- I ter, of ."“bna, had not tendered his de clension of°the State and that though Gen. Pierce had not pJ”’ flvc * y made up his mind, he was very much in clined to invite M- Medary, of Ohio, into the Post Office Department; Mr. Jefferson Davis, of Mississippi, to be Secretary of War, and Gen. John A. Dix, of New York, to take the Portfolio of the Treasury De partment. After learning these matters, Mr. Hunter consulted with his friends’ and coining to the conclusion that it would never do to trust himself in such company in a political boat so officered—he sent to Gen. Pierce a polite declension of his kind proffer. \ our readers may rely on the facts above stated. His act meets the hearty concurrence of a large number of his fellow Democratic Senators, among whom I may name Messrs. Achison, But ler, Bright, Douglas, Cass, Brodhcad, Downs, Charlton, Adams, and others—in all, numbering from twelve to fourteen; some of these gentlemen—Tugaloos and Cassmcn—avow their determination to vote against the confirmation of Jefferson Davis, while all of them make no secret of their determination of exercising their con stitutional prcrogJPlre of voting against tno confirmation OrGen. Dix, if nominated to the Senate. This ‘is the occasion of the bobbery. Mr. Francis P. Blair, and his connection by marriage, young Mr. Wood bury, of Boston, are believed to be doing their best to reconcile the malcontents to the “cast” above mentioned—but, so far, in vain. For they manifest a settled de termination to force Gen. Pierce to depend on Whig sympathy and support to consti tutionally make up his Cabinet of such in gredients. Hundreds of letters have been written to the General from this city with in the last two days for and against Dix and Davis, while Mr. Francis P. Blair and his co-workers have doubtless urged the cause of Dix with unsurpassed eloquence and earnestness. The weight of this epis tolary testimony has been decidedly n gainst them. So many and so vehement have byen tlm representations of this sort | which have prone to Concord within the l last forty-eight hours, as to render it quite I impossible for Gen. Pierce to compliment Gen. D;x after this fashion, unless willing to do it at the expense of open and de cided hostility to his administration, at the outset, of nearly one half the Democratic nnrty of Congress; and more than half the j Democratic members of the two Houses, : who are not after offices for themselves or i adherents. | Under these circumstances, it is urged j by those in whose opinions I place eonfi j dence, that Messrs. Dix arid Davis will be j dropped from the programme in double j quick time, and that tiie original design of making up the new Cabinet, with Hun ter and Matey as its leading features will be adhered to. Whit is needed in Griffin. A College, or Collegiate Institute for i males is needed— greatly needed, in Griffin. /If such school were established, many boys would be well educated who will otherwise scarce be educated at all. Many would be educated at home, under parental guardian ship, who may be ruined by evil associa tions abroad. What multitudes of youth have thus been ruined by College life away irom home ! But the following table will I show that as a matter of pecuniary interest, the citizens of this place would act wisely to contribute at once Ten Thou sand Dollars for erecting buildings for this school—and that in doing so, they may safely calculate on having this amount refunded annually for five years to come : Ist. It is reasonable to expect that fifty students from abroad would be sent to-such school, or College. These would pay * |in o - annually each, S3OO, ftl*ooo 15 000 2d. 20 Coll^ e students *rom this town who would otherwise be educated a broad, would be a saving annually of SIOO each, 2,000 10,000 3d. 20 families would likely settle here for the purpose of educating their children, whose store ac counts would be annually each SSOO, ‘ 10,000 50,000 * 4th.

Additional pat ronage to Hotels and Liv ery stables combined 500 2,500 6th. $15,000 worth of town property now for sale would be enhanced in value 10 per cent. 1,500 Ith. $15,000 worth of town property to rent : would increase in rent 10 per cent. 1,500 7,500 Bth. College buildings would cost SIO,OOO, on which undertakers and mechanics would clear 1,000 9th. Other building and improvements to be made in consequence of such institution being lo cated here, worth to me chanics, &c. annually 1,000 5,000 $33,000 152,500 It is believed the above estimates are quite reasonable. But if there be any doubt, take half the amount for the first year and we have $16,500, and in five | year's we have - $76,#00 brought into the j place by the establishment of such school. I I leave others to decide what proportion iof these amounts would be ‘profit. The merchant, for instance, can calculate for | himself what profit, lie would make on the j sale of SIO,OOO worth of goods. The | writer is candidly of opinion that one year j after such institution goes into operation i the people would be repaid for building it j —and that it would add greatly to the prosperity of the city in after years none can doubt. J.'ll. CAMPBELL. Griffin, January 21, 1853. Griffin, December 25th, 1852. Mr. Editor :—Travelling in the cars, we arrived early in the morning of this date, in a town, not over one hundred miles from your city. Among the inter esting things seen there, while we staid but for a short time, was an object, deaf and dumb and looking nine ways for Sun day.

We say to all friends, take care of hen’s beverage. It is equal to a powder magazine, full of brimstone, salt petre and carbon, enough to blow to atoms a cannon of 42 pounds calibre, let alone stomachs, guts, skulls, and brains; equal to a coagreve rocket in explosion.
