president's report.
Atlantic k Gulf It. R. Co.,)
Savannah, January 1, 1872. [
The President and Directors re
spectfully submit to the Stockhold
ers the following statement of affairs
of the Company for the year ending
the 31st ultimo.
The,'gross earnings of the Com
pany for the year 1871, exclusive of
amounts not yet adjusted with con
tracting Companies, but which be
long to the earnings of the year,
amount to $1, 044,6(17 98, derived

Total $1,044,007 98
As compared with .the earnings
of tint previous year, t he earnings
for 1871 show an increase or $12,(396
9T. This increase is small in itself,
hut in a view of all the conspicuous
causes, which have impaired the
value and the volume of railway
transportation during the last six
months of the year, it should be a
subject of congratulation, that any
increase has been obtained at all,
and that this Company has not suf
fered in common with most of its
contemporaries, while it is signifi
cant of the amount to which this in
crease might have been augmented
•had these causes not existed.
During the first six months of the
year, the business of the Company
was prosperous and active, showing
n increase on the business of the
amc period in 1870 ot about twen-
y-threc per cent. After the expira
tion of this period, the cotton crop
as severely damaged by successive
wins of extraordinary violence,
and, following upon this providential
cause of a reduction of the resources
-of transportation, ensue* a warm
struggle at competitive points, re
sulting iu a large reduction of rates.
The cotton receipts of the Road
from September 1st, 1871, to date
as compared with the.cotton receipts
for the same period in 1870, fell off
56,276 bales,- while the comparative
-earnings cJ the Road declined about
fourteen per cent. The gross earn
ings of the year were therefore sus
tained by the successful results of
the operations of the first six months.
The advance in these months was
98,484 08, the loss in the last six
onths was $85,787 11, and the dif-
ice between these amounts is
12.696 97, the increase above sta-
ted.
It may be unnecessary to indulge
in reflections as to what better re
sults might have been accomplished
during the past year, in view of a
larger production than the country
yielded, i)ut as experience With rail-
I ways terminating at the Southern
Atlantic, ports has indicated, as an

r to that of the outward and the gross
be improper to “*
tema, Hut with » rrop^,
poontrx ou which the road is depeo
dent, the earnings for the past year
would have been highly satisfactory.
The general balance of the Treas
urer, and the report of the General
Superintendent, hereto appended,
exhibit the condition of the Com
pany’s affairs, in their respective de
partments.
The true position of the Company
in its most important aspect seems
not to l>c understood. Its road is
commonly regarded as a finished
work. In previous reports this im
pression has been carefully sought
to be removed.
The Atlantic & Gulf Railroad is an
unfinished enterprise. It has not been
completed to the terminus designed
to be reachcd?by the originators of
the scheme, as specifically indicated
by its charter from the State and on
which the subscriptions of the State
and airthc original Stockholders of
the Company wero predicated. The
charter declares the route of Road
shalljic sclcctcd'“with distinct refer
ence to a speedy connection with
the Gulf of Mexico, at Pensacola or
Mobile;” and again, that it was “the
intention of the State of Georgia, by
this act to^,provide a main trunk
railwayJacrossTher “ territory, ^'con
necting the Atlantic and the Gulf of
Mexico.” Thisjintention, so-'emphat-
ically declared by the act of the Leg
islature, in response to the main
purpose of tUe§ projectors of enter
prise, has been as emphatically
adopted, and as steadily pursued bv
their successors. The administra
tion of the Company has regarded
the completion of the Road to Pen
sacola or Mobile, but preferably the
latter, as not merely essential to[tlie
true objects of the charter, but as
important to the ultimate* prosperi
ty of the Company. If any deviation
from this leading pupose lias occur
red, it has been temporary, ami
with a view only to strengthen the
main hire by lateral lines, bv which
it would be at once supported and
protected. It was not until the
close of 1870, that any'pausc in the
progres^of the main line was en
tertained,^jand tjic experience of the
yoar 1S71 is sufficient to show that
the ..Company should not rely Ex
clusively on its temporary local es
tablishment. Local improvements,
though sensible, may be slow—slow
er still, because of calamities. Com
petition may bo arrested to prove
only the lull of an ever-shifting strug
gle, and so, too, the development of
new non local business may be re
strained by causes as multifarious
as they may be unexpected. Under
such conditions, and with an income
not commensurate with the invest
ments of the Company, sand liablerto
fluctuations as uncontrolable as they
may not prove very successful, the
soundest policy would look to an
early resumption of the Westward
progress of the Road and to its com
pletion to it legitimate terminus.
The Board of Directors, not at
any time unmindful of the. import
ance of this object, and pausing onlv
for a favorable opportunity for ac
tion, have determined that the line
should be extended so soon as the
necessary means can be obtainod
Active measures have been taken to
restore a restoration of the public
lands in the State of Alabama, gran
ted to the Company, and of which it
was deprived by limitation in 1867,
and other measures will be adopted
as soon as they may be authorized
l\v*the proper occasion.
It is not now proposed to enter
upon an elclwrate discussion of this
important subject. Perhaps the val
ue of the completion of the Atlantic
k Gulf Railroad to the State, to the
city of Savannah, to their co-stock
holders and to the country at large,
is already sufficiently manifest But
aside from the reasons already set
forth of its importance to the Com
pany, we may be permitted to sug-
•gest, that it may prove the most po
tent balance that can be established
against the vast railway consolida
tion scheme which is penetrating
the Southwest with %igantic*trides,
and which has justly alarmed the
whole commercial and railway in
terests of the jsouth. Threatening
to absorb the resources of the South
Atlantic ports, and to despoil their
railways of supplies ot transporta
tion, they must bring themselves by
theshortest routes in contact with the
great markets on the Gulf, and thus
seek the tributes justly due to grea
ter celerity and cheapness of trans
portation. Tho value of the com
merce passing around the Florida
Capes was estimated, before the
war, at $400,000,*000. This must
be greatly augmented by the natur
al Improvement or the Gulf States
under the development of their rail
ways and the increase of their popu
lation and production, and if there
is force in, the prominent law of com
merce and trade, that they first
seek the nearest available market,
New Orleans, the most conspicuous
of those on the Gulf, must continue
ttr concentrate the largest share
To this point, a commanding system
of railways brings a great volume of
commerce to swell the ponderous
burthen of the Mississippi and will
unite New Orleans with jthe the
Southern Pacific Railway. It is to
reach these grand objects that the
completion of the Atlantic & Gulf
Railroad is aimed,.looking to estab
lish the shortest line of communica
tion between the Atlantic, and Gulf
cf Mexico, to share in the vast com
merce passing from the one to the
other, to carry it into and cross-‘the
territory of Georgia, to aid in de
positing it in her own seaports, and
to give them a second connection
with the Southern Pacific Railway,
below the thirty-second parallel.
If these views ‘ arc chimerical, it
may follow, that the Port of Savan
nah especially, must surrender the
extension of one of the strong arms
of her present progress and future
attainment to a new power threaten
ing to sap the foundation.of her com
mercial establishment. If, on the
contrary, the project of the Atlantic
and Gulf Railroad is susceptible of
the development in its entirety, with
which sound reason seems to invest
it, its worthy of an energetic effort
for its early consummation.
Assuming New York as the ob
jective point, the route via "Mobile,
Montgomery, Atlanta and the Rich
mond Air Lino, will be about 200
miles shorter than tho route by the
extension of the Atlantic and Gulf
Railroad via the Coast Roads’ while
the liTtter route beyond Savannah
may he in adverse control. Savan
nah must, therefore, depend on her
advantages by sea to Northern and
foreign ports, in conjunction with
her possessing a short rail route be
tween New Oilcans, Mobile and the
Atlantic. Computing" the distance
between New Orleans and New York
by what is known as the Richmond
Air Line, at 1363 miles, the distance
from New Orleans to Savannah
would 614 miles, and the freight
mileage from Savannah to Now York
by sea would be*200 miles, making a
total of 814 miles against 1363, and
a difference of 449 miles in favor of
the rail and water route via Savan
nah. The time made on the latter
would be nearly the same as on the
former route in the transportation of
treights, while the difference of cost
must go to the advantage of the
latter in the ratio of the difference ot
freight mileage, or nearly as eight
to fourteen.
To these conservative advantages,
looking to the protection of the ex
isting interests and to their future
promotion, should be added others
tending to open a new and inviting
path for immigration, locally and
westward, over a short line in 'a
temperate latitude, to the develop
ment of a large local commerce now
unknown, at or intermediately be
tween the termini, and to the en
largement of the concentrating and
distributing power of these and of
every point through which the line
will pass.
Submitting them, as involving the
highest interests of the Company,
these proixisltions are laid before
the stockholders, and their co-opera
tion respectfully invited to promote
the extension and the completion ot
the road to its originally projected
terminus.
John Screven, President.
The Chairman then read a com
munication from Morris. Ketchum,
Esq., inquiring whether the stock
holders were willing to authorize the
Board of Directors to act as agent
of the Company in considering a
proposition to lease the road to cer
tain capitalists for a term of yearg.
Action with reference to this com
munication was deferred until to
wards the close of the meeting, and
the Secretary read the minntes of the
preceding annual meeting, which
were adopted.
Col. J. L. Seward, ot Thoinasvllle,
offered a series of resolutions rela
tive to the extension of tae road
westward to the termini originally
contemplated by the charter of the
Company. The resolutions were
seconded, and Col. Seward, R. H.
Hardaway, Col. Screven, Dr. R. D,
Arnold, Hon. B. F. Bruton, and
others, advocated their adoption.—
The consideration of questions as to
the probable cost of completing the
road, as'well as the assistance that
would be. extended by the State,
were discussed at length by the
Chair, M. C. Smith, Esq., Judge J.
R..-Alexander, and' Hon. James M.
nunter—afyer which the question
recurring on the passage of the reso
lutions, they were unanimously
adopted.
Col. Seward then read a preamble
and resolution relative to the necesi-
ty of encouraging through Rev. C.
IT. Howard, .immigration to points
on the line of the road, and request
ing State and corporate aid in behalf
«of the project. Adopted.
THE KETCHUM LETTER AND THE PRO
POSED LEASE,
Mr.’D. G. Purse then asked if it
was- in order to consider the com
munication of Mr. Morris Ketchum,
and being answered in the affirma
tive, "the communication* was again
read, and Mr. Purse offered a reso
lution to authorize the; Board of
Directors ,to|act collectively as agent
of the _ Company .relative to any
proposition7that might Be made to
lease the road for a term of years,
and then urged its passage.
Dr. R. D. Arnold objected for the
reason that no proposition could'be
considered until it was made, and
moved to lay the letter aid resolu
tion on the table. j
Captain E. T. Davis, Thomas-
ville, said he hoped the litter would
be- politely considered, and that a
reply then be written to Mr. Ketch-
uin. He was in favor, le said, of
leasing the road on goo|l security,
provided the party leasing would
make it pay well, and after placing
it in good order, to return it to tho
stockholders at the expiration of the
lease. ii n i ■■■’. •
Captain J. M. 13. Lovell said that
if thcre“was not money iu the road,
Mr. Ketchum would not have sent
his communication, and he therefore
thought that the Company had bet
ter manage the road themselves.
Col. ScreveR thought that the
letter and resolution, should be con
sidered at once, and after several
amendments and provisos had been
read, the following resolution, pre
pat ed by Hon. B. F. Bruton, of
Bainbridge, was unanimously adopt-.
ed:
Resolved, That in response to the
communication of this date from
Morris Ketchum, Esq., addressed to
the presiding officer of this meeting,
in reference to the lease of the road,
etc., the Directors are hereby in
structed to invite a specific and
definite proposition, and that when
such a proposition is received by
them, if it is such as in their opinion
is entitled to earnest consideration,
that they shall proceed to lay the
same before a convention of stock
holders to be called as early after as
practicable.
ELECTION OF DIRECTORS.
The stockholders then proceeded
to elect fifteen gentlemen to consti
tute a Board of Directors for the
ensuing year, with the following re
sult: John Screven, R. D. Arnold,
Wm. Dnncan, John Stoddard, Hiram
Roberts, Charles Green, W. H.
Wiltbcrger, J. L. Yillalonga, A. M.
Sloan, Edward Lovell, R- H. Hard
away, A. T. McIntyre, W. J. Young,
C. J. Munnerlyn, W. O. Fleming.
Each of the gentlemen received
the full vote of the stockholders, and
the meeting adjourned.

The Presidential Outlook.-—
Among that class of politicians who,
thrde months ago, could see but one
candidate, there is now an anxious
query whether President Grant is
reasonably certain of carrying sev
eral important States, wherein con
fessedly serious political blunders
have been made. New York, Mis
souri, Louisiana, Georgia, and per
haps Indiana, will vote, it is feared,
against Grant, if he is renominated.
Their loss would probably cost us the
field. Such a tiket, however, as
Trumbull and Blaine, or Wilson and
Calfax, or Colfax and Hawley,
would carry either of these States
without loosing the vote of any that
could be got for Grant. Every po
litical campaign has its watchword
that gives the clue to the popular
sympathy. All the signs of the times
indicate that the key-note of the Re
publican party in the next campaign
will be reform in public administra
tion. With such a spirit a candi
date who needs to be defended and
apologized for, explained and clear
ed up at every point, is Simply not
available. To' all such the people
will apply the French motto, Quis'
excuse slacouse. He must be above
the necessity of defense.—Chicago

that if we can’t secure those claims
peaceafly, why then we must resort
to the arbitrament of arms and make
the money come at the point of the

that we should make a peremptory
demand upon Great Britian lor the
immediate payment of those claims
upon pain of finding herself at the

should send over fifty or sixty ele

be a fight about the Alabama*claims,

iu fighting. Whenever a Be J lair boy
was found on this side of the river he
was unmercifully beaten, and when a
Benwood boy was discovered in BeH-
air tbe flogging was rapid with inter
est.
Not longer ago than last Saturday
week the boys of the two places met on
the ice and engaged in a regular pitch
ed battle, using stones and even pistole,
ome of the combatants are now in the
Marshall county jail, awaiting trial for-

of boys, about one hundered and fifty
on each side, met on the ice, by appoint
ment it would seem, and engaged in s
most terrific fight.
Every eonceivable'missile was 'used,
and several of the combatants received

raged with fury for about two hours.
One boy, a ’ad about thirteen years old,
