Evidence on all sides is presented to u« of the great value of this cane to the peo ple of the South. But within the limits ot our city, it has been cultivated with more than ordinary success by our fellow-towns man. Mr. Edward Parsons, who has j a* placed before us a bottle of the syrup, ntan- •ifaeturcd by him front the. cane, of a quali ty superior to any that \re have yet seen.— Mr. Parsons tells us that he plantfcJ eight acres—that its yield per acre has been from ten to Srieen bushel* more seed tnan it could possibly have yielded in corn; ami ot fod der four times as much. Of =yrup, he has made from fifteen hundred to two thousand gallons, a portion of which he has sold at Til cents per gaJDn. Now, her. is. the r< - suit with Mr. Parsons of a first year’s trial of the Chinese .Sugar Cane, and waat dues it demonstrate 1 Nothing more nor • than that it must prove a source of wealth, and independence, (so far as sugar and particularly syrup and molasses are n- rerned,) to ever farmer in the South. We congratulate Mr. Parsons at his success, and thank him for his delicious compliment, •Stcce writing the above, we have b en com. pi: men led by Mr. T. J). Lines, a merchant of this city, with a bottle of Mr. M. O’. Fallon’s ’•golden syrup,,’ manufactured from the same cane in Newton county. Tori too is a very su perior article,ami sells readily in Atlanta, as we are advised by 11 r. Lines, the agent of Mr. Fnltoo lor its sale, at SI, per gallon. From eighty to one hundred barrel* of thus Syrup have been made by Mr. Fulton.

Particularly do we con gratulate you, Tax Payers of Georgia, at the prospect before you of being soon called upon to evidence your patriotic devotion to tbe State, by replenishing, from your well filled puns s, an exhausted treasury—a duty, no one in this fast uge can doubt you will discharge without a murmur!

At about 11 o'clock, A. M., it was first knowu among the passengers that tbe steamer had sprung a leak ati'i'was making water fast. A line was formed and men went to work nailing from her engine room, the fires having been already extinguished by the water. We gained on it so much as to be able to get np .-team again, but she held it up for a few minutes and stopped th >i forever Bailing continued in all part? of the ship and was kept up til! she finally went down. Darinz Friday sight the water gained gradually, but all being in good rked to the best of their ability, feel ing thy when morning came we might poe-ibly speak to .some vessel and then be saved. The fatal Satur'ayearne at last, but brought noth- ing but iucrea-ed fury. Still we worked on and about 2 o’clock P. M , the storm lulled a little and tbe clouds broke away; hope was re moved and all wjrked like giants. At 4 P. M., we spied a sail and tired our guns and our flag was at half mast ; it was seen and the brig Marine, of Boston, bore down upon 03 ; wc then coushlcred our 3afefty cer tain.

More than seventy vessels were waiting for cargoei, and arrivals from the interior had been de luged by rain.

Thie statement, wholly unauthorized by anything I have Bald or done, certainly oc casion! me no little surprise. While it is true that I supported the third resolution adopted by the late Democratic Convention, and still staid npou that resolution, and while I. think that the Administration has had sufficient time to recall Gov. Walker, and ought to be cen sured for not having done so, yet I most say that tbe support of Mr. Hill would, in my humble opinion, afford a very poor remedy fo r the wrongs that have been committed upon the rights of the southern people by the course of Gov. Walker in Kansas, We have differed from Gov. Walker and the administration (if they upprove or fail to con demn the courec) for the reason that we be lieved that great and vital principles have been thereby violated. Would a decent re gard for consistency allow us to redress such a wrong by giving our support to men who have always ussuiled and now denounce these prin ciples, viz: the principles embodied in the Kausas-iNebraska trill ? For one I have nev er considered the authors and supporters of that bill ua plotters und contrivers, who had> by the bill, surrendered the interests of the South for votes aud votes only ; und when 1 place such a construction on that measure, 1 may support Mr. Hill for office— but not uutil then i do not regnrd ( any mau or administration as constituting a great political party—indeed 1 think that in a government like ours the pre tensions of the greatest man are perfectly in significant in comparison with the least prin ciple. \Yith the position of the Democratic party of Georgia, I am entirely satisfied uml shall, with grout cheerfulness, aud every confi dence of the fidelity of its candidates to the principles to which they stand pledged, give them my support at the approaciiiug election.

Special Notices The Atlanta Intelligencer and Exami - ner—Addreis to the People. It lias been, for some time, the earnest de sire of a large portion of our friends, that the two Democratic papers published in the city of Atlanta, should be united together— Yielding to these repeated solicitations, the undersigned Proprietors of the Atlanta In telligencer and Atlanta Examiner, respect fully announce that this union has been con summated, the wishesofmutual friends grati fied, and the energies that have heretofore been divided, will hereafter he concentrated and consolidated in the maintenance of *ur well known principles. This arrangement will involve the necessity of au enlargement of the size of our paper, and an entire change of its typographical appear ance. We shall, at as early day ns practica ble, obtain ucw nnd beautiful typo, in order to complete this improvement, It is the purpose of the Proprietors to spare no expense or labor, in presenting to the public a newspaper commensurate, in every respect, with thesocial, political, and commer cial wants of the country, The point of pub lication, with it3 nnrivalcd advantages of ac cessibility and difinssion, must render it the most eligible for obtaining information by all classes in this section of the State. The ear liest news, by mail and telegraph, can be ob tained here, and distributed more speedily iu every direction, by our Railroad facilities, titan from any other jioint in the State. Tbe union of the large subscription lists of the two papers, must make our journal one of the most desirable as one of advertisement, in tbe State, and the patrous who have so libe rally encouraged us heretofore, will now find, under the change, an cnbunced advantage, and the united energies bestowed on tbe advance ment of its ioteresta will also redound to theirs, while by the Union of the papers and the en largement by the contribution of more edito rial labor, our readers will find themselves more than compensated by the change. Large as the circulation of our paper now is it ought, by the countenance and encourage ment of oar Democratic friends, to be increased so as to reach a more extended field of useful ness, and counteract the dangerous dogmas of both Northern and Southern opponents of the principles of the Democratic party. In conclusion, we take this auspicious occa sion to renew our pledge of fealty and devotion to the well kuown principles, which it has long been our pleasure os well as our pride, to ad vocate. J. W.

Z U AYCOOK, WILLIS CARLISLE, WR HILL, J H FULLER. ~ Atlanta, September ISth. Mr. E. B. WALKER, •Sir. I, with the rest of the Conductors of Ibis Road, received your circular, calling for in formation obout an ovcrchafac (or passage oil the Western Jit Atlantic Railroad,exactedofMr. U. H. Hill, as you say he has alleged in a pub lic speech. I cannot, in justice to myself, (the person implicated,) give you nn answer yea or nay, without a word of explanation. You know very well, sir, that for the last eight months I have been oil the Iload in the capac ity of a common train hand, and have had no- thing to do with a Conductor’s business, till the heavy presa of work on the line, called for ex tra help in tho running of trains. A few days since, about the 1st of the month I had charge of a train, which I had orders to run just behind the one in charge of Conductor Wing, aud which train I was running by ;Mr, Wing’s lead. Two gentlemen geton my train at Cartersville, and when I called upon them for lure, 1 charged one d filar and fifty cents. All the rigmarole of Mr. Hill about my various charges of $2, $L CO, and finally $1, is simply a falsehood. I charged Mr. Hill and tLc other pers n on the train, $1 50 a piece, and no more or less. This money I returned to the proper receiving officer, and there stands tho entry of these two sums ntt my book, tnd the entry end payment ol them made without prompting from any knowledge of these charges of Mr. Hill which have just been brought to my knowledge by your circular. I frankly admit that this was an overcharge ol twenty five cents, and Win, 1’aic, one of our old Conductors, will testify that I asked him at Marietta if the charge was right, for never having hid the control of a train in my life, until a few dayB before this time, 1 feared I might be wrong. Mr. Pate told me the regular cliargo on a freight train without a ticket, was $ I 25, 1 then looked over the company at the Hold to find both the gentle* men to return them their money; hut fitting to do so, I made the payment to the proper officer, ot $3 00. It dors seem to me, sir, u plain man, having nothing but a good namo to depend on in this world, that this is a horsh judgment of Mr. Hill, and 1 know it is an unjust one. Ceuld he have believed, or hoptd, that in this transaction that I was somclhiog else than a rogue I The facts as they ute, and as|I givo them-show how easily he might have given some better explan ation of my conduct, than he hudoneat New- nan, Covington, Griffin, and I suppose will do everywhere else he speak*, from now until Oa- tobar. I have, as you know, sir, bed no experience as a Conductor—was only placed in charge of a train fora few days, and have returned to my old post as a train hand, now the presa of our business does not need me ss a Condnotor. If I have played the rogue in thie instance, dwelt on with such joy by Mr. Hill, it wu without any motive. I played the thief, ta Mr. Hill has been playing the demagogue, ell for fun and no pay. Poor and humble as I am, I have, thank God,'always home the character of a truthful and honeit man, and Mr. Hill is the first man who has said otherwise. I am thankful too, that tho account between-Mr. HlUand myself, and the public, bad as he tries to make me, letvea inch a balance in my favor. Ho alon* accuses me, while thousand* brand him, and God le my judge, I had rathor deteend, even ftom tho poor place 1 hold, if there is an humbler one left for mo, than into the pit of degradation which the good of all times sends the man who will slan der and lie for a reward, if he can got one, or from mahee, if he cannot ft.
