Poet.
St. Lons, June 21.—Daring the past week
the name of Logan D. Damarin, a very wealthy
citizen and prominent member of the Southern
Methodist Church and President of the South
western Publishing House, connected with that
Church, has been coupled with a serious scan
dal in connection with a young girl named
Emily Robinson, who served m nurse in his
family. To-day Mrs, Catherine Poe Robinson,
mother of the girl, filed a petition in the
Circuit Court, charging Mr. Damarin with forci
bly debauching her daughter and procuring an
abortion on her, from the effecta of which she
died ten days ago. The charges seem to be
mainly based upon a statement made by
Emily on her death-bed to her mother, a minis
ter of the gospel and one or two others, a brief
aocount of which was published here Sunday
last. Day before yesterday Mr. Damarin ten
dered his resignation to the trustees of tho pub
lication company, in consequence of the reports
in circulation about him, which was accepted.
The trustees, however, adopted a resolution in
dorsing Hr. Damarin as an upright, honorable
man, and discrediting entirely the reports with
which his name was connected. Mrs. Robinson
claims $100,000 damages. Emily was a mem
ber of the Trinity Episcopal church of this city.
Her father wa3 a successful sugar broker in New
Orleans before-the war, but died three years
ago in indigent circumstances. Mrs. Robinson
claims to be a sister of Hr. DeBow, of DeBow’s
Review, and cousin of Edgar A. Poe, the poet.
Popular Movement.—No better evidence is
wanted of the popularity of the proposition to
change the place for holding the next State Fair,
than the fact that about $GOOO have been sub
scribed by our citizens to carry it out within the
last two days. It i3 now a foregone conclusion
that the change will be made, acd our citizens
never did a wiser thing for themselves, their
children and the City, than to thus liberally sus-
'tain the movement - It is not so'lely to prepare
the Central Trotting Park grounds for holdtog
the State Fair that the present subscriptions of
money are being made. Indeed, the Fair is of
minor importance, for it will last but one week
and be held but once a year; but alter the vast
throng of visitors have departed, the various
improvements to be made upon the grounds, the
buildings, fountains, beautiful walks, etc., etc.,
will remain to our citizens for their enjoyment
and reereationat all times. They willall be the
property of the city, and all surplus moneys
arising from the use of the grounds or buildings
by private parties, will be appropriated to the
further improvement and ornamentation of the
Park, and thus in a few years it can bo mad?
one of the loveliest spot3 in the South. Nature
has already accomplished half the work, and it
now only remains for us to do the rest. The
grounds are a dead level, skirted on one side fcy
the Oemulgee river, on another by the Macon
and Augusta Railroad, and on the other two by
majestic and beautiful groves of trees. Already
a beautiful race track, which will require but
little labor or expense to put it in splendid order,
is on the grounds, and there is really nothing to
be done for bolding the Fair, aside from the
necessary buildings to be erected, which we are

The various boat-clubs of the city, under tho
inspiration of tho splendid prizes l£at will be
offered at the State Fair, are already putting
themselves in trim for tho contest. There i3
abundance of muscle in Macon that can be
made available at the oars, bet the most essen
tial things are to organize and go at onoo into
training. An enthusiastic boatist suggested
to ns yesterday tho propriety of selecting a
crew of the best oarsmen in the city and put
them in daily training with ono of tho beats now
at tho river, and meanwhile make up a parse
for the purchase of a first clas3 boat to be or
dered as soon as possible, and when it arrives,
then lot the picked crew practice with it until
the races come off. We think tho suggestion a
good one, and hope those gentlemen who ad
mire this manly and exoiting sport, but are too
far advanced in life to participate in it, will
help tho “boys” to purchase suoh a boat. Or,
if somo noblo Orceins would immortalize him
self, ho can do so by telling tho yonng men to
order such a boat as they want, ana ho will foot
tho bill.
V. Abel Rathbono Corbin, President’s broth-
rally chartered in 1833, and amendments made
thereto by successive Legislatures nplS4o,
“hen its name was changed, and in 1841, when
it was sola by a decree in chancery and bought
hy Tyler. ‘ .
The object of tho Legislature is expressed in
the 1st section of the original charter, and is
in these words:
“For the purpose of constructing and keep
ing up a railroad communication from tho city
of Macon, in tho comity of Bibb, to tho town
of Forsyth, in the county of Monroe,” tho snb-
:riber3 for tho capital stock hereinafter men-
lianed shall bo a body politic and corporate, by
the r.arao of The Monroe Railroad Company,
and shall have power to do all lawful acts,
‘ property incident to a corporation, and neces
sary and proper for the transaction of the busi-
U083, ana construction of the work for which it
is incorporated.” By the amended charter of
1S3G . bulking powers and privileges were given
to the Company, and they were authorized to
'Steed the road beyond Forsyth in a north
westward direction to such point near or on tho
Chattahoochee river, as may bo selected as the
'erciinns of tho Western and Atlantic Railroad,
?ad to make such connections therewith as to
vdciit tho continuous travel of cars and vehicles
from the ono to the other road. The primo
esd leading object then, of the Legislature
ia creating thi3 corporation and giving it its
franchises and powers, as dednciblo from the
several acts of the Legislature, was to secure a
continuous lino of railroad communication from
Macon to tho terminus of tho Western and At-
•intic Railroad. So long as that object Is se
cured, and carried ont in good faith, the origin
al purpose of tho Legislature is answered, and
it is immaterial whether it be done by the orig
inal proprietors, or by their lessees.
3. Has the Macon and Western Railroad Com
pany, the power under their charter and the
^needments thereto to make tho proposed
lease?
Tho 22d section of theactof lS3Csays: “Tho
several laws forming tho charter of tho Monroe
hailroad and Banking Gompanyshall be in force
jnd applicable to tho road extended beyond
Forsyth, in respect to banking privileges, and
in Ql! other respects, In the same manner as they
® f e in force and applicable to the road from
F <>rtyth to Macon.” , .
The 23a eection says: * ‘The existing charter
of the Monroe Railroad Company shaU continue
*o force in respect to the Monroe Railroad ana
•■'lubicg Company in aU matters in which it
dies not conflict with the provisions of this act.
The act of 1845 changed the name to Macon
oad Western Railroad, and took away tho bank-
privileges.
The actor 1847made Tyler the purchaser,
jailer the docreo of tho Court of Chancery and
uis associates a body corporate, by the same
duuis, and confirmed to them the original poio-
erso/ the.Monroc ltailroad Company, with cer-
Jr.d usceptions not material to be considered in

A Change fob Excursionists.—According to
tho Washington Patriot, the Government is
paying Treasurer Spinner, and Assistant Secre

their regular salaries, each ten dollars a day and
ten cents mileage while traveling in Europe for
health and pleasure. If that be so, we would
respeolfully inquire whether all the vacancies
in tho excursion department of the Government
are filled. Several friends are ready to file- an
application for a similar appointment, and will
make as many miles as possible before frost.

The Bottom of a Canal Drops Oct.—Mon
day morning, about 10 o’clock, the driver of a
canal-boat, while crossing the seven-mile level,
between New Village and Broadway, in Morris
county, New Jersey, heard an unusual rnmbliDg
noise, like that of muffled thunder, and noticed
that the waters of the canal were disappearing
rapidly. In a short space of time his boat was
left high and dry in the empty bed of the canaL
The water in the canal for the distance of a
miin and a half had disappeared in a pavity
forty by fifty feet in width. No outlet for the
water has yet been discovered. It will prob
ably cost the canal company $10,000 to defray
