Tlitt Ittinii Preacher.
1 1 wue Situ,lay uu I paaned through the
county ol'OranoT. that my eye was caught by j
a cluster oi'itorscs tied ta .tr a ruinous old tvoo.i- !
cit house in tin- UiiTcst, not far from the road
side. Having frequently seen auch objects
belbre through these states, l had noditfieulty ,
in un.lt rstanding that this was a place of reli
gious worship.
Devotion alone should have stopped me. to ■
join the duties of the congregation; but I must
eonti s the curiosity to hear what the peach-1
er of such a wilderness could say, was not the j
least of inymotivi
O.i mitering. 1 was struck with his fraternal
appearance. He was a tall and spare old
man ; his head which was covered with a !
light linen cap. his shrivilled hands, and his
voice were all shaken under the influence of!
a palsy, and in a few moments 1 ascertained j
he was blind.
The first emotions which touched the breast
were those of mingled pity and veneration. —
Hut oh ! sacred (tod ! how soon were my feel
ings changed ! the lips of Plato were never
more wort.’iy of a prognostic swarm of beus i
than were the lips of mis holy man! It was :
tile duy of sacrament and his subject of course j
tile pa.-sion of our Saviour. I had heard the
subject handled a thousand times; 1 had,
thought it exhausted long ago. Little did 1
suppose that in the wild woods of America. I
was to meet with a man whose eloquence I
would give his topic anew and more sublime i
pathos than I li td ever before witnessed.
As lie descended from the pulpit to distribute !
the mystic symbols, there was a peculiar, a
more man human solemnity in his air and
manner, which made my blood run cold, and
my whole frame shiver.
He then drew a picture of the sufferings of
our Saviour; his trial before Pilate, his as
cent up to Calvary, his crucifixion and death.
I knew the whole history, but never until
tin n had I heard the circumstances so selcct
i 1. so arranged, so colored! it was all new
and I seemed to have heard it for the first
time ia my life. His voice trembled in every
syllable arid every heart in the assembly
trembled in unison. His peculiar phrase hid
that force of description, that the original
scene appeared to be at that moment actuar i
broil! C OU. CJ' VS. W* KIW IIW lUCCS iff Uie
Jews; the staring frightful distortions of their |
malice and rage. We saw the bullet ; niy |
soul muddled with a flame of indignation, and j
my hands involuntarily clenched. But when
h? came to touch ou the patience the forgiv
ing meekness of our Saviour, which he drew
to the life, his blessed eyes were streaming to
. heaven; his. voice breathing to God and soil
i and gentle prayer of pardon on his enemies -
I “Fat.ier forgive them for they know not what
j they do” —tlie voice of the preacher which
‘had all along faltered grew fainter, until his
i utterance being entirely obstructed by the
force of feelings he raised his handkerchief
to tiis ryes, and burst into a loud and irrepres
sible flood of grief. The effect is inconoeiva
i hie. The whole house resounded with the
j mi lgled groans and sobs, and shrieks of the
i ivaole congregation.
It w is a longtime before the tumult had
I subsided so far as to permit him to proceed.
! Indeed, judging by the usual but fallacious
standard of my own weakness 1 began to be
vi r\* uneasy lor the situation of the preacher;
for I could not conceive how lie would be able
to let the audience down from tlie height he
had wound them without impairing the so
. icr.i my and dignity of the subject, or perhaps
shocking them with the abruptness of the fall.
But no; tliedesent was as beautiful and sub
lime as the elevation had been rapid and en
thusiastic.
The first sentence with which he broke the
awful silence was a quotation from Kosseau
• Socrates died like a philosopher, but Jesus
i Christ like a God.”
1 despair of giving you any idea of the ef
fect produced by this short sentence, unless
you would perfectly conceive the whole man
ner of the man, us well as the peculiar crisis
ia tlie discourse. Never belbre did I under
stand what Demosthenes meant by laying
such a-stress on delivery.
You are to bring before you the venerable
figure of the preacher, his bliifdness constant
ly recalling to your recollection old Homer
D iin ...in AiiUoti. as.-ociating with his slow
solemn, well accented enunciation, and his
voice affecting melody, you are to reinember
the pith of the passion and enthusiat in to which
the congregation were raised, and then the
few minutes of portentous, death like silence
reigned through the whole house; the preach
er removed the handkerchief from his aged
face (even wet from the recent torrent of tears )
slowly stretched Ibrtn his palsied hand which
ho; I it begins tlie sentence — Socrates died
like a philosopher;”—then pausing, raising:
the other hand pressing them both together ’
with warmth and energy to his breast, lifting
his sightless balls to heaven, and pouring his
whole soul in bis tumultuous voi"e: ‘-but Jesus
Christ like a God!” If lie had indeed aud in
truth been nn angel of light the effect could
scarcely have been more divine.
Whatever 1 had been able to conceive of
llie sublimity of Massillon, or the force of
Bourdaloue it had fallen far short of tlie pow
er which 1 felt the delivery of that simple sen
tence. The blood whieh had jnst belore rush-;
ed in u hurricane to my brain and in the vio-.
elence and agony ol my feelings had held my !
whole system in suspense, now run bock into
my heart with a kind of sensation which 1 can
not describe, a kind of shuddering horror!
The paroxysm of the blended pity and in
dignation to which 1 hud been tnuwpoited j.
subsided into the dee|iest abasement, humili
ty aud adoration. 1 hud just been lacerated -
and dissolved by sympathy, for a Saviour as
a lellow creature but now. with tear and
trembling l adore him as—a God! — lt irt. t

and agricultural freedoln of South-western
Georgia. The views which nre entertained
by the committee ol'the important advantages
to be derived from its construction nre respect
| fully commended to the people of South-west
ern Georgia, as embodying the sentiments of
5 that Convention.
It is not proposed to .enter into a labored ar
gument to shew the utility of the enterprise.
Public sentiment of South-western Georgia
has not from its earliest settlement, doubted !
the advantages accruing to it by uniting her
by Railroad or Canal with the Atlantic sen
l board. In accordance with this general feel
ing, its citiiSfcns have been invited to embrace
alternately two projects which promised to re
alize the golden fruits of a free & unrestricted
commerce. These projects were alternately
i embraced by many of the most wealthy and in
; lelligeut citizens of South-western Georgia,
j and after large pecuniary sacrifices on their
I art. both failed in consequence of a want of
, means to complete them. However great the.
: individual saei ifiees & humiliating the defeats
caused by the failure of these works, the pub
lic sentiment of South-western Georgia lias un
dergone no change or modification in regard to
| the inconvenience, delays disasters, and in
creased expenditures, incident to a Gulf mar
ket.
The construction of the South-western Rail
road. among malty other reasons strongly
commends itself to the people of South-west
ern Georgia upon the following grounds:
Ist. It will open a regular communication
with the Atlantic seaboard and the valleys of
the Tennessee river Ly Rail-way.
dd. It will become tlie great thoroughfare
of travel between tlie Northern and South
western Stales.
3d. It will greatly increase the pupulatlun
f South-western Georgia, and vastly im
prove her agricultural, commercial and social
condition.
Thg ClimULlUri'o “ilmii( a fi** reonnrlrft
’ in support ol tlie sc propositions in tbeir order.
It. has been already premised that it is cuper-
I erogation to attempt lo prove the utility ol the
’ eiit. rprize by a (abort and argument. There
| are certain self-evident truths in agriculture
j and commerce, as well as in polities and mor
als which can receive no support from argu
ment however ingenious or forcible.
The committee will recur to the first pro
i position. To build the South-western Rail
i road promises to develop the agricultural re
; sources South-western Georgia by giving
a cheap and expeditious Rail-way communica
tion with Savannah, which possesses the vari
’ ed and important elements of an extensive
coinlnerce —capital and enterprize. It is not
only in the sale oflhe cotton grown in South
western G orgia. that great benefits are ex
pected to result from its construction; but it
has other and greater claims which are anti
cipated in the differences of the nresent out
lays. and these to he made by the planters of
South-western Georgia. The condition of her
people will be improved in a tivo-lbld degree
by indie.,olubly connecting her with the great
, marts of Georgia. It is at Macon that it is
hoped that the day is not distant when all the
varied productions of Georgia will be eoacen
i 1 trated and again to be diffused. It is at that
point that the planters of South-wester,i Geor
gia court an alliance with the. seaboard and
. the mou itainsof Georgia. Experience proves
that it is to the planters’ interest to sell the
. fruits of their labors as well us to- supply llieir
wants, without being I arced to employ agents
i lor either. The freedom of selling of cotton
at Macon is guaranteed to every” grower ot’
the article. Whether the principle be right
i or wrong it is not now propose^to discuss it.
II lias ever been considered antagonistiral to
the i,(teres! of the planters who have been for
j red to yield to the restrictions imposed by com
mercial marts under the flimsy of pro
i tee ting purchasers of cotton from their friends.
The second proposition assumes that the
S. W. Railroad will become tlie great thor
| oughfarc of travel between the Western
I a.al Soiith-W, tern Biales. The comupt
! tee has the candor to acknowledge that this
will depend upon tile length and direction of
the Road. If the enterprise should be.ulti
mately pushed to Pensacola there can be but
, one opinion as to the influence which it will
! have upon the public travel of the Atlantic
; and South-western States. Pensacola com
bines many advantages worthy of consideui
i ion by the fric ids of (his great work. Her
line harbor healthy climate, and her j oximily
to the South-w.-stem States and the West
: India Islands give her superior claims to be
| come the South-Western depot of the great
enterprise. The Federal Government has
long si ies discovered her grent sup riority for
a naval station and has gone on to improve ]
the advantages which nature has given her.
; It has not Been however commensurate with
her advantages nor with the protection due the
commerce ol'the Gulf. The committee recom
mends to the friends of the enter; ns,- to look to J
I Pensacolaaa its ultimate destinutio.-i.A strive
with their available means Ibrits accomplish
! meat. It may truly he said to la- n work of a I
! national character and that assistance from
the Government of the United States ought |
!to be invoked in the prosecution ol this great
| and extended line of Railway which must link ‘
in embraces of iron the Atlantic und thgsQulf
The present Executive us the United !
States has indicated hie disrelish of u power
e luitned and exerted by Congress since the
early formation of the Federal Government
and il is not now to be expected that hi views
j would be changed if the present enterprise
when completed should shill ns by nngic from
the Atlantic to the Gulf and from the Gulf to
the Atlantic the military power and resources
of the American Government. This celerity
,is anticipated, and it is claimed by its friends
as identifying it willi the security and power
lof the Ailnntie and Gulf States. Debarred
at present from looking to the National Gov
ernment for assistance, we shall a.-k when th;S
time arrives that the Legislature of Georgia
shall become a party to the enterprise or render
such assistance as will ensure the completion
of the S. W. Railroad.
It has been but a li-w years since Georgia
undertook her Western mid Atlantic Railroad,
at an expense of several milllims of dollars.—
The people of South-western Georgia were a
moog the original friends of that enterprise,
and lore; aw the golden harvest m accrue from
its completion. They have submitted to tax- ‘
atio i without a murmur to curry out the origi
nal design of ils earliest nnd most enlightened
projectors. Will the Legislature of Georgia
with a knowledge of the justice of our claim
on the public coffers refuse to assist in tlie t:i
----s tract mu of the 8. W. Railroad / To qtics- j
tin I the assistance when Jinked in a suitable
way, und muter the favorable ciremnstarices ‘
ito lie urged iri behalf of the enterprise is to
j doubt its justice nnd enlightened patriotism.
The third ground is that it would grently
I increase the population of Kouth-western
, G rgi, und vastly improve her agricultural,
convnersml and social condition.
] _ This proposition though not asserted in the
i former, may be assumed ns tbeir legitimate
fruits. 8, W. Georgia like otla r regmrts of

ring the action ot tlie 23d. At a time when
the tortunesol the day seemed extremely pro
hlenmticnl when many on our side even des
piiirctl ol success—old Rough and Ready, as
lie is not inaptly styled, whom you inustkuow,
hj the by. is short tat. mud dumpy in person,
witii remarkably short legs—took his pos.tion
i ou a commanding height, overlooking the two
armies lliis tv,is alsmt three or, perhaps,
lour o'clock ia the ailernoon. The enemy,
tvim hud succeeded in gaining an advantage
ous position, made a tierce charge upon our
column, and linight with a desperation that
seemed lor a lime to ensure success to their
i ' r "‘ K : TI ‘V struggle lasted for some time.—
All the while, General Taylor was a silent
i spectator, his countenance exhibiting the most
| anxious solicitude, alternating between hope
and despondency. His stall, perceiving bis
i pei'ilous situation, (lor he was exposed to the
lire ot the enemy,) approached him and im
] p pred him to retire. He heeded them not.—
j Ills thoughts were intent upon victory or de
i leat He knew not at this moment what the .
J wotjl'i be. He felt that engagement
was to decide ms iu.„. n„
orders and selected his position. If the day
went Ugainst him, he was irrstriovufiljr lost;
; a io. 1,,,., t, L could rejoice in common with
his countrymen, at the triumphant success of
| our arms.
“Such seemed to be bis thoughts—his de
termination. And when he saw the enemy
give way and retreat in tile utmost confusion,
lie gave free vent to bis pent-up feelings. His
right leg was quickly disengaged from the.
pummel ol the saddle—where it had remained
during the whole ol the fierce encounter —his
arms which were calmly folded over his breast,
relaxed their hold—his feet fairly danced in
the stirrups, and his whole body was in mo
tion. It was a moment of the most exciting
and intense interest. His face was suffused
with tears. The day vvus won —the victory’
complete—his little army'saved from th<j dig-
I grace of a defeat and he could not retrain”

A \erj long and deeply interesting account,
in detail, ol the great buttle of Iduena Vista,

but Gen. layloh. His presence gave confi

army sacrificed. What punishment from an

1 he following characteristic anecdote is re
i luted by the Sullolk (N. V.) Democrat, in
j s,.caking ol the reprimand of Lieut. Hunter.—
i t nmmo lore K* arney’s noble c.onduct was cal
culated to make heroes:
“The trial and sentence of Lieut. Charles G.
Hunter brings to mind sense of disobedience
I of orders very similar and will be interesting
, to our citizens generally, as well as to many
ol our young and gallant officers of the navy.
V\ i know ol no case more suitable to a juxta
position than the Ibllowing:— At a time when
the Island ol Cuba was infested with pirates,
who were committing the most horrid outra
g-s and murder against the commerce and
lives ol citizens ol all nations, Captain (now
('oimuodoi-e) Kearney, with the United States
brig Enterprise, was sent to break up this
horde of pirates. During the cruise, he dis
covered a nest of pirates off Cup Antonio, in
possession of a ship and two brigs the ship
and one hug Amerieun, the other English,
which they wit** plundering in the vicinity of
one ol their strongholds, a dangerous reef pro
tecting them from the upprouch of large ves
sels, and n battery on shore to protect them
Irom bouts or small vessels.
”1 ominodore Kearney immediately order
ed the brig'* !fonts to lie manned, and also two
or three boats belonging to the merchant ves
sel. This command he gave to his gallant
second oilier. Lieut. James Mclntosh, with
positive orders not to pnrt company or sepa
rate the boats. Y\ ilh,these orders Lieuten
ant Mclntosh h'tV his vessel, but it was not
tong before he found that in obeying orders
he could accomplish nothing, as the boats of
the merchant vessels could not keep up with
him, (being dull and heavy ) and it was ne
cessary to pull abend us lust ns possible, to
cut olf one of the pirate’s vessels, which wns
attempting to escape, and consequently he
separated his forces, but succeeded in captu
ring four pirate vessels and setting tire to and
blowing up a tilth, beside* dcktrilyiiig a large
amount ol property on shore, with their hub
itutions, striking terror to it echini unity of vjl
toiiis tlml had committed such vast depreda

without great hazard, uml during u tremen
