The outlay would be about equal to the purchase

a ’ I ?tart towards a penneoant improvement of

An app nation of eitlier ot these, after the peas,

rrsu.t being highly gratifying and encouraging to hio
sr t and Lis neighbors.
I am aware that guano has been used in small
; utilities by several gentlemen of your State, and by
one, 1 believe, in the application to wheat, to the extent
ot several tons. There can be no such difference, in
y opinion, between the soil and climate of Virgmia
and Georgia, as to make any considerable difference

grow • iol cotton is concerned, that there can be any
‘P“riquestion, o.,question about it.
As to the s-ggestion that it may not be as well suited

Not with tan img ihe unfavorable weather, there was

I mg w iii'ii” ib- settee , are removed from the ground
I door ; yet a the ronririerrceni; M ot the m-eting the
1 J. or was I'Ao-iliirJs occupied, and both galleries were
comple'ely toil. At eight o'clock crowds were still
P'Urtng into die hall, and duting the meeting three
fourths of the vast area of the ground floor were oceu
: pied by ciosey conipaered ranks of men, while thegai
’ lene- and passages and the large stage were densely
| crowded. VVes ioolil put down four thousand persons
I as a very f i:r and moderate calcjiation.
f> line featu.es ot the meeting were especially grati
| lv tig to tile true friends of Mr. Webster, in addition to
| ibe great numbers io attendance. First, the com pose
non ol that vast crowd. It embraced all ranks; the
wealthy, those in moderate circumstances, and those
j “hose capacity to tort is their only but sufficient capt
:ai; merchants, professional men. and meclian'cs;
young in? id e aged and ol 1. ih 1 composition ot tiir
: meeting was indeed lull of promise. It \v;is obvious,
i on a survey ot ttie multitude, that it was, in the proper
j hse ot the word, a popular gathering—a spontaneous
coming together of men, moved hy tin ir own impulses,
j their reilow-cttizeus their earnest wish that
| -Mr. W ebster may a: length receive the reward ot his
| great pahoc services through such it long couise of pa
t notie devo ;on to his country’s good. In this f<*sp* , ct
j ‘Be meeting bad a significance which it would be un
; wise to overi iok or disregard. Even ihose who were
most sanguine with reference to ihe movement must
j have been agreeably surprised to find the admiration
ot Mr. \V ebster difiused so w idely through all classes
! of the community ; and those who honestly doubled
| Mr. Webster’s general popularity must have had such
I doubts entirely removed.
! Another gratifying feature was that it was essenti 1
iy a W ing meeting, ft partook.of na hybrid character.
A t apprehension prevailed, in which we acknowledge
j tiiat vve shared to some extent, that tire lead in the
movement might be taken by certain gentlemen, whose
! erranc movements some time ago so effectually served
.the Democratic party, perilled the election of a Whig
Senator and the success of the State Whig ticket, shook
j the confidence ot their fellow Whigs,and thus materi
ally curtailed their influence in the Whig camp. For
i tunately, however, tins error was avoided, and tried
, and true \\ higs. w ho maintained their fidelity to W’hig
| principles and the Whig party when so many swerved
| under the influence of personal jealousies and feuds,
j were the prominent nienon the occasion. No one can
doubt, that u movement is a genuine Whig enterprise
] in wnioh such men as Moses 11. Grinin 11, Frederick
i Tallmadge, J. S. Thayer, and other fanhlul men take
j a prominent part.
Nor was this all. The Whigs who last evening so
i eloquently, and wi'h such manifest conviction mat they
j were engaged tn a work worthy of their utmost ener
gies, advocated tie* nomination ol Mr. Webster, were
not only steadfast and unfaltering Whigs, but they have
ever been warm and ardent and laborious friends of
Mr. Clay, and are well known as such. This we ac
count a most hopelul sign. Their p r eferrnce his al
ways been lor a statesman for President, and Henry
! C ay tor their fi st choice as the embodiment of elevat
|ed salesmanship and pa'riotism Upon him their af
lections were earnestly fixed. He was just the man,
n his vigoious days, to win the love ot political adhe
rents. But the idol of their attachment is removed from
pub ic life, and, true to their first principle—a statfs
■iav to conduct state affairs —they turn w ith trust
to Daniel Wehster.and we doubt not will luborearnest
ly to promote his nomination and election ; and we all
know that t’ e friends . f H uy Clay are the men that
both can and vvdl work. They do not content them
selves with merely talking.
And yet another feature was encouraging. Although
the exceedingly able address was received with fre
quent outbm-ts of applause, and the resolutions were
received with a unanimous “aye,” of the most genuine
and cheery kind, the enthusiasm at the close of the
meeting, was of a bet ter sort than at the commencement.
Partaking at first chiefly of the character of a desire to
have Mr. Webster in the Presidential office, as was
very distinctly to be observed, it gradually rose into an
intelligent conviction that the object of the meeting
ought to be accomplished, and could be. it the Whigs
were true to themselves—as was no less manifest to
those who analyzed ihe demonstrations made towaids
the close, until they culminated in nine such hearty
chei'is fir Daniel Webster as were wont to be given in
olden time for *’ Harry of the West.” * We feel well as
i sured that if Mr. Webster’s friends in other parts of this
•State, and in other States of the Union, will hut take
an initiatory step like that ot laM evening, and thus
give the Whig party every where an opportunity of de
claring their views, his nomination will be secured, and
his election be placed beyond reasonnbl - doui t.
Commercial Advertiser, 6th inst.
The Webster meeting last night was not so large
nor so enthusiastic as had been expected. A good
deal of disappointment was felt at the absence of Mr.
Ovate, the charm o! whose brilliant oratory had no
doubt drawn many to the place. It seems evident
from this meeting—if evidence were needed—that Air.
Webster, with all the great qualities of his intellect,
and with the many admirers who delight to do him
honor, does not possess that electric power which ral
lies the masses to hts support. He is not a popular
man,and can hardiy hope to be a popular candidate
for th Presidency— Tribune.
The demonstration last night in favor of Mr. Web
ster, owing,doubtless, to mency ot the wea
ther, was not so large as his Iriends had reason to ex
pect. The very large hall,however, which had been
secured for ihe meeting, was quite half fuli during the
greater part of the evening, and it was certainly as
well-dressed, orderly and respectable an assemblage as
ever convened in our city.— Times.

communications from R. R. Cuyier, Esq , and Vle.-srs
Padletord, Fav &, Cos., of Savanfiah, in relation to li e
prti-peet ol receiving aid from Savannah towards the
extension of file South Western Road and the chance
of obtaining Railroad iron t>y “mortgage on the road
and property, if one should i>e graded Irom a point
equi distant from Oglethorpe and Eutauia, to the lat
ter town.” Messrs. Padletord, Fay 5t Co..express the
opinion, for w inch they give their reasons, that the iron
cannot be purchased on such security, on a reasonable
length ol credit.
Mr. Cuyier writes as follows:
Savannah, Feb 20, 1352.
Dear Sir. —l am in receipt ot your esteemed lavor of
this day's date. I had ihe pleasure ot addressing you
at your residence a few days ago. Tier letter passed
you on your journey to this city.
As 1 said in that letter, and repeated to you in con
j versation here; I do not think you will be able to ob'ain
i aid in Savannah at this time. I explained to you that
j tins city lias expended $650,000 ut the South Western
i Road and Branch Road,being almost the entire amount
put down in that quarter.
If the citizens ol Stewart and Randolph, and of Bar
bour, Alabama, will procure bona li Je money subscrip
tions to the amount ot § 100,000,and exhibit them in
tins city, 1 believe that substantial aid w ill come, it is
best, then, tor >ou to see w hat cash subscriptions you
can raise, and then if the people tiere and on the fine
will nut put down SIOO,OOO alongside ol yours, you can
with good grace, withdraw from tile enterprise and
save your money.
lam ot file opinion that you could not, in the United
States, procure credit for iron before the grading was
actually done, and the wooden s iperstruciure was
ready to be put down ; whet a company ariives at that
stage, ji can possibly borrow enough for the iron, by
mortgage on the Road.
I hope that the Iron Company in Wales, may be in
duced to lurnvh iron tor pan stock. 1 will set on loot
an inquiry on this point, and may be able to learn m
j the course of three or tour months whether they ate
j io do s*o.
1 mink the risk is great, it you atteinp. to build 40
| miles, leaving the g ip ot 40 mites t i milt, and circuui
| stances. Better to snow your ability to put down even
ijJoo.OCli in ca?h, men procure $300,000 other subscrip
tions, and then, vviiit liie prospect ol getting a Road
continuous nom Ogleiiio.pe to the Chattahoochee,
graded and wooded, press for cred.t tor the iiot,.
i am td opinion (it i-hii individual opinion, as all

the subscribers would be admitted into the douih

j stitita. <■{ g i; ral war. Ii is well known now, wheth

j km ignorance and party spirit have combined to give
j them credit, Imve been invented winch
Ju re Utterly ?.b-uuf. At onetime it was stated th.atde
; iii?i ..is tiad iieen made upon file neighboring (States in
i tone ot almost m-nucc; ut another, great prepara
tions were making for war; and foreign lener writers,
by l ie tid ot tue in ■ t audacious ia aehoods, give rep
i reseutations of our Mtuation which are purely iiriagi
! “ary. Tune, which is usually prompt enough to do
i justice to such ticts of malevolence and lolly, seems,on
die contrary, in this instance, to encoutage them.—
i raise alarms are propagated more than ever. Projects
J ot invasion aie talk'd 01, and it is even pretended that
| our regiment*are now ready to cross the frontier. In
couseque‘ C” oi these rumors, injury is done to public
credit, amt obstacles are thrown in the way of’rod*.
; Meanwhile, * nee the 2d ol December, the French
Government has addressed no demand to any foreign
I p iwerexcept Belgium ; and then, only to prevent the
j organization in that country of a series of incessant al
| tacks Not one additional soldier lias been armed, nor
I has theie been so much ns one g-tierai review. In iaet
the Government nits done nothing to arouse in any
way, the susceptibilities of our neighbors. All the
view sol the Government of Franee, at this moment,
are directed towards internal improvement. Unjust
attacks cannot move it. It vviil not allow its tranquil
ity to be disturbed until the day when an attack shall
h ve been made on our national dignity and honor
i I is altitude lias not ceased, for one moment, to be pacif
! io, and aii rumors to tlie contrary, are but absurd fa-
I hies which, alter this formal denial, it will only be ue
i cessury hereafter to treat with contempt.
A word now on the elections of the 2Jih inst., which
| the Prince is so anxious to have unanimously in his
! favor, as was the election of the 2l)th of December.—
He is seriously annoyed on finding that despite repeat
ed official protests against such a coutse, the Orlean
istsand Legitiniatists in some departments, still seek
to be represented in the new Corps Legislatif. The
modest demand ol the Prince-President, is, that no one
be admitted into that body who is not ready to go the
j whole Napoleon ! “There is no name under Heaven,”
say his partisans,“whereby the country can be saved.”
They declare that the voice ol the people, in electing
the nephew of the Emperor to the Presidency, was
truly flie voice of God More than one bishop even
has declared it. But, on the other hand, we are told
that if the popular voice should elect un Orleanist or a
Legitimist,lh<-n it is to be interpreted as the voice of
the Devil. This is a fair sample of political theology.
In insisting that the Corps Legislatif be made exclu
sively ol N ipof onisis, the official organs pretend that
the Government is acting a noble, disinterested, and.
above all, tiank and loyal part.
“ To take upon itseli to recommend such or such
candidate ,” says the Patrie,” was,on the part of the
Government, at the same time, a novel and bold mess
ure. We were unaccustomed to this frankness ol ini
tative But, after some moments of surprise it has suc
ceeded, as courage and sincerity always succeed with
the people. Thecountiy hassaid: ‘TheGovernment
does not seek to deceive us. in everything which con
cerns us, it wishes to speak frankly. Its responsibility
is immense, and it oilers loyally to divide it with us.—
In place of fiie seciei influences winch preceeding gov
ernments have used and perhaps abused, it would sub
!-dilute an influence direct and avowed. Without in*
jierh rut:? w h Hie liberty of out votes, it believes it use
at o fit a ‘tieiul inieiests whicn it represents to direct
them. Very well; be it so. We ask nothing better !’”
Acting upon this a-sumed public opinion the vast
centralized power ol the country is now at work io
prevent any man passing the doors of the Legislature
who is not an oui-and out man ot tiie President.—
Louis Napoleon, in fact, appears to be in the condi
tion of the Judge who would hear but one side ot a
case, lest he should be bothered. He is determined
not to tie embarra-seu, and thinks it most unreasona
ble and ungrateful that anybody should oppose him.
‘’Why,’’ asks a semi-official organ, this morning,
“sliou.d the candidates lor the Corps Legislatif who
are not accepted by tiie Government, complain?—
What motives can ‘hey have for remaining candidates
whet the President prefers others ! Are they better
qualified than he to judge the wants of the country?—
Have they more light ? Have they more disinterested
ness ? Do they show more devotion to the institutions
which he has rounded ? No. The tact is, they pre
tend to judge their own cause, and decide it in their la
ror.’ ‘
Now. although nothing is more sure than that a lac
ious Assembly would seriously compromise the inter
*sts of the country, and although i> certainly seems to
ie goo 1 policy, at present, to give the existing Goveril
nent a lair chance to develope and carry out its plans,
still, it mus strike every sensible person, that this dog
. ged determination to make the deliberative Parliament
>f the country nothing more than a packed commit
tee, is remarkable intolerance and perhaps imprudence.
And it is by pursuing such a course, and by adopting
nnutnerable other means to suppress ullneedoui ol
word, thought,and action, that the Government, mind
ess of all precedent, keeps the country in a state of
perpetual disquiet and alarm. It would seem that a
nore liberal policy wou and be dictated by the simplest
knowledge ot hu.r.au nature; for, after all, men will
think, will speak, will write, and will act. This is
peculiarly true in France. All experience shows that
Frenchmen will, smnehcw or other, “ have t teirsay.”
Indeed the authorities are every day complaining that
despite every precaution which lias been taken, people
will talk; and the police complain that although it is
•asy to arrest a republican, it is absolutely impossible
io arrest a rumor , and it is these rumors, originating in
workshops and saloons, and Hying all over the country,
which most annoy the President just at this moment.
He seems to have thought that in destroying every
vesiige ot liberty of th? press, forbidding every kind
>t political assemblage, and threatening ihe circulators
•I tuGe news with tines and imprisonment, he hail se
jured liimself immunity from criticism. He now
Jiscovers his mistake, and finds that there are some
hings which are impossible even to the nephew of the
Emperor. The Legitimists,fatally tor their influence
ib a party, are splitting into almost hostile parties
ouching the course they should pursue in the coming
■lections. The Count de Chanihord has written let
ters recommending his partisans io abstain, keeping
‘aloof from the Prince Louis Napoleon. Some, the
principal men ol the parly, are consequently refusing
ihe candidacy. Many, however, of the minor men ure
presenting then selves. M. Berryer, ihe acknowledged
leader ol file p iriy, refuses to become a candidate upon
ihe ground that the legislative body as now organized,
there is room left for no independent political role. —
‘ What should I go to do,” says he (in a letter which
no French paper would dare to publish, and which I
have read in a Belgian journal.) “ in this new legisla
; live body from whichpolit cal life is utterly withdrawn,
and where 1 would not find either the public action or
ihe independence which were not ravished from us by
; the revolution ol 1830 nor hy that ot lo 48?” There
| will be in thecoun iy more Orleanist opposition, and
,some republican, bm 1 do not beli- ve that upon the
first lest question that comes up, th*re will be shown
; an opposition ol five votes in tint whole Assembly.—
No circulars as heretofore, aie allowed to be issued by
; candidates. The govermental candidates don’t need
; them. Others must do without them as best they may.

that white the work of the establishment may be lying
