Mr. Kiill’s Remarks at ih* WefaterFesfiva'* At tlie dinner recently giv. ti to Mr. Webster at Savannah, Dr Richard D. Arnold, one of the Y r i-*e Pres dents on the occasion, after some very appropriate coinpliine itary remarks, offered flic following toast Our Guest, the llm. Tumhus But f sr King. — The friend and efficient advocate of our Naval and Com mercial Marine,and Ocean Steam Navigation. “Hon or to whom honor is due.” Mr. King responded as follows: Mr President and Gentlemen: —For the senti ment complimentary to myself, winch htis just been given, and tor tire manner in which it has been given and receive 1, I lcg yuu to accept my sincere and grate fill thanks. If any thing I have done in the discharge of my CongrcKooiml duties shall be considered, or found to be, beneficial to any or all the great int .‘rests of our country, my aim will have been attained. Your ap preciation, so eloquently nnd beautifully expressed, I had not ventured to hope tor. I trust, however, that the measures to which allusion has been made, will b found in their operation to meet all your expectations, and that we shall ffod in them, not only the means ot pn motiiig our commercial and siiciiil intercourse in time of peace, but thut th**y will afford us tire most ef ficient means of defence and offence m tune of war.— A-* one of these measures wis brought forward, prin cipally in consequence of the information and advice received from yo i> Jutting fished g.rest,(Mr. Wkmtsr) then Secretary of State, Dreg leave to state some of the c rcumatanccsconnected with it. At that time, Hll, I there was no law mill turning tlreemploymetit of any portion of the Navy on our coast. We had one Squad ron on the coast of Brazil, one m tire Pacific, and one in th'* Chinn Seas. No ships w r** kept or authorized by law to be k. pt in commission at home. We hid not so much as a coat guard tn warn us of t ie upptoach of an enemy, or to op/mse Ins descent on any fmrtion of our coast (iur iliiHc dues with Great Britain had iiMMiiiied a most threatening import, I much more than the people of cither country aapposrd. Information c mfi lentialy com nu i:c iteJ by the then i Secretary of State enabled me to see the peril we of the South especially wer * in, nnd 1 immediately brought forward tlie meusure, which became a law. for the es tablishment ot a Home Squadron. This Squadron was designed more especially lor the defence ot the South ern coast, where it was imm'Jiately ordered, and has ever since been employed. Tire measure wim denounc- Jby t.i* AhnUiionistsns one dtsigned for “tire pru* t- cUoii ol slitVchofd<*ii,” and your guest received his ull share of their abuse lie not only recommended he oata blah ment of such a wjuadrou, hut h* w*i)t a secret agent ttire West Indies to nsc rtam tire numb r Hid description of tr*ojis winch were b ing assembled there for the purpose of making a descent on ihe South •rn ctmst It wa* known that n large number of black troops tad been organized, and that extensive war-like props ationa had been um !■• at Berrati la and other places, u tire purpose of striking a heavy blow at tire South, in re event of a war. It was necessary to aseettain the Ktent ao-I character of tlrese pre|Nirations, that tn is irt*4 might be devre dto meet them ‘Lina was Van*. I he ageat returned with the necessary information md the Government was thus prepared to act in th most prompt and effective manner. Gentlemen, as one of your Representatives in Cos. j gres, it became my duty tu consider how tar ouruav rcasources might be regarded as adequate to th* protec tion of our commerce, and. as I muy siy, our nlinoM utidefeuded and extensive sea coast. It must be ap parent to every one that the people of the United State will never sanction the policy of maintaining in time <> peace those extensive naval armaments nnd powerfu llects which w.ll be necessary for the protection of ou | commerce nnd the defence of our coast in time of w?u 1 his would involve un expenditure greater than isnou required lor the economical administration of our Gov ernment It became necessary, therefore, to adopt n system which w II not only support itself and greatly extend our lo:eig:i ami domestic trade and intercourse, hut Is* inimedntely convertable into n naval force,suf- 1 licieutly powerful to inert any emergency which may mis- The successful employment of steam in naval warfare and in flu* commeicnl marine ot other great luarntinie powers, ren h ied such u system not only prod tcahlc but absolutely nee -seriry, to the uiumt ‘tinner “lour jiusilion in th * commerce of the world. This! system consists in the employment of steam ships, so c instructed as to render them in all respects suitable fr naval warfare, in the transportation of the mail, passengers and freight in our foreign and domestic trade I—nnd 1 —nnd this syst. m, 1 am happy to state, has, by the measuies of the last Fdigress been adopted. \Ve are to have one line of steamers between New York and 1 Bremen, consisting of five sh ps of about eight hundred i tons burthen, each ();ie line between New York and Liverpool ol five ships of about three thousand tons each. One line between New York and New Orleans of four ships, of not less than fifteen hundred tons each. O ie ship ol one thousand tons, to run twice a month between ilnvanna and Chagres, and two large steam ers on th’ Pacific, to run from Panama to Oregon, touching ut intermediate ports Thus we shall have eighteen steamers, superior on an average for power and speed, to any the world has ever seen employed in commerce, and capable of forming a powerful fleet in the event of war. 1 have, for some y # *Hrs past, regarded a t'*nni navy as of the utmost importance to our whole country, and alrsolutely necessary to the protection of our Southern’ coast, and hence my efforts to procure its establishment, j 1 beg leave to mention a circumstance which shows in I j a most tavornliie light, the lioernl feelings and views of ; Noithem and Western members of Congress towards | the South. When the measure for the establishment of these lines of st eu.iers was brought foiwnrd, it was ?mt doubt-! ed that the amount which flic Government will receive j foi postages from those to Europe will rep -y the amount to be g ven to the contractors ; but it w is urged tint >is ! I the mail is now carried by land between N w York and New Orleans every day, that the transportation ! “fit once a week by w.terwoukl not reimburse the amount—s*29o,oo —-equired to put it in operation.— But when they were assured th it this hne was required lor the promotion ot Southern commerce and inter course, their objections were at once withdrawn, and the measure passed both il <uses almost without a dis ■ anting voice When I entered Congress there was not a smgie * cyan steamer belonging to the Navy. When | the measures which have since been adopted, shall be j carried into effect, we shall have a fleet of five and J twenty w*ar steamers. Possessing superior speed to any | in the world, and thus capable of meeting a foe on their | own terms, tins w ill, of itself, he a force almost, it not j quite, sufficient to secure our sea coaSt from the inva sion of an enemy. I beg leav<* t > say a few words with respect to the progress of our internal improvements, and the prospect? of Savannah. At a very great cost the Central Railroad 1 has leen constructed to the city of Macon, where it is met by other lines of Railroad, extending, or which i w ill soon extend, to the Tennessee river. From thence communications by Railroads will soon be extended to Knoxville. Nashville and to the great North-west, communicating with the Lakes, the middle and upper ; portion of the V'alley of the Mississippi. From Macon we shall go to Pensacola, the great naval station and the best port on the Gulf of Mexico. About ten yeai ago. this gigantic system of inland communication was commenced—a lew- years more of persevering eflbr w.ll suffice to complete it. In iny opinion, no man ha.~ yet formed an ad* quite idea or conception of the rc i suits to this city, which are to follow They may safe ly be compared to those which were felt by the com merce of New York on the completion of the Erie Ca nal. They will, in my opinion, be vastly greater Some things must be done to render these results avail able. Your harbor must be so improved ns to admit sh ps of die largest ciass to pass to your w harves w.th ! lacdity. As commerce increases,ships of greater ton nage will be employed. A tew years ago it was not | common to see an Americ in meichnnt ship of more | thrin six or seven hundred tons. Now th-*y are build in? them ot two thousand, an 1 it will not be long ere 1 w s e them ol three thousand tons burthen. Swan- ‘ nah possesses the on J y harbor in the Stuthrrn States | into which ships of this description can enter. Ail I that is req died is to tak** away tile obstructions to their approach to the cty You also require a naval estab lishment to he connected w.th that at Pensacola by R idroad for the protection of ou c unmerce in the Gull and on the Atlantic, and to prot< ct our extensive un fo tifie I const from invasion from the British establish- ! ment of n similar kind, almost on our borders, in tli* West In lies. Th so objects .t is the duty of your rep resentatives ill Congress to attend to. In conclusion.

WE, the Grand Jurors, Paunel No. 1, tor the county ot Bibb, May Term, 1847. beg leave to make n .*w brief general presentments. We h ive endeavored u> embrace in our two weeks’ labors all the su.rjeetsso •oiciUy presented to our consideration, in the very ap propriate nnd lac> I charge ol his Hono:. Ju Ige Floyd. The subject of Public Education was dwelt upon by iis Honor with p *cuhar interest and fervor, and it is a •ource of unfoigned gratification to the Jury, to be able . report this county o< well provided for on this subject, i to make it unnecessary to 1 *vy n further tax the pres ent year. The Poor School Fund now in the hands of di Treasurer, nmountatoten hundred and eighty-seven lollars and eighteen cents, and m the course ol the year will tie increased to iilnjui fouiteeu hundred doitars, (by ceipts from the Btite,) which is thought amply sufli cfont, by the very wo thy Treasurer of said fund, for ins nil iniportnni and benevolent object. Near four hundred children ure reported in this county, as entitled to its benefit. We hive examined the hooks of the Receiver of Tax Returns,mi l report them creditable to that officer: we recommend to him. however, to compel all persons riving in Land, to furnish the numbers of the lot .and district, as without them, the tax cannot he made out of the property. We allow the Tax Collector, n* his insolvent list, eight hundred and twenty-six dollars and n nety-three cents. We respectfully suggest to lh* Inferior Court, tot.ik • charge of these executions, and cause as many of them to he collected ns possible ; and for the future, that n list of all delimiters be sum shed the Managers ol Elections, and that no one be allowed to vote who Ins not pai l his taxes. From the high character ol our Inferior Court, we trust tins statute will no longer be a •lead letter, but will be strictly enforced. The high character that has been so uniformly ac corded to the Clerks o* th.* Superior and Inferior Courts, .or ih** methodic and arrangement of their papers nnd the neatness of their books, is fully sustained by our exam inations. I he Jail so neat nnd cl?an, and in good repair—ex- cept the fonce. which needs prompt attention. The Court House is found to he in bad con iition, nnd unless promptly repaired. Widbc itnU*.. illy damn god.— li tile means oi the c mty are insufficient loi the im mediate repairs of the public buildings, we recommend to (he Interior Couit to levy such extra tax us will cover such expense.
