Niau.vra FM.I.S and L vkb Erie. —Professor >ll liman,
the eminent geologist, discredits the opinion advanced
bv some that the gradual wearing away of the rocks of
Niagara Falls mar possibly result in draining Lake
ilric. In a recent lecture he remarked:
Thev will not halt at their present station, hut re
treat slowlv and snrelv about two miles _further, where
thev will stop again for :in unknown jieriod, nu 1 proba
bly for ever, since at this place the hard limestone wifi
form both base and top of the falls, and thus stop the
rapid destruction of the rock. Some have thought that
thev would finally reach Lake Erie, and that then the
lake would be completely drained. Snc.i an event is
impossible At the point already mentioned the tor
real will gradually wear away the surface of the lime

one of the lost wonders of the world.
Oi k Nwai. Architects. —The New 1 ork Cwri'P,
taking the lust remarkable trip of the .Plant r far its
text is showing how tar our naval architects are ahead
of those of anv other country. The editor remarks:
“It is somewhat a striking fact that each of the four
vessels of the Collins line has now performed the Trans
atlantic in less than ten days. In April the / ■-
Cant. Nve. steamed from Liverpool to New A ork
in nine davsi tweentv hours and forty-five minutes, in
Augmt, lA.M, the Ca r t. Comstock, steamed
from Liverpool to New York in nine days, fifteen hours,

X™ York in A
hours and fifty minutes; and now m May lßnMhe
U’ mtu- Capt. West, steams the same homeward yoy
ege in nine davs and twenty-two hours. This distribu
tion of the victories among all the vessels and all the
commanders of the American line, shews a. conclusive
lv as anything can, the intrinsic superiority of the fine
itself over its great rival, of which the two shortest voy
ages ever performed were bv the lo r, < apt. Judkins,
in ten days, four hours and fiftv-two minutes, and the
and also Capt. Judkins, m tea days, three
hours, and thirteen minutes.”
Mobile and Ohio R ut.road.—We learn that at a
meeting of the Board held on the 12th, the necessary
resolutions were adoptod providing for the sale of six
millions of bonds, being in round numbers the sum re
quisite for the entire completion and equipment to the
mouth of the Ohio . . , .
The negotiation of the bonds has been tendered to
Col. Win. R. Hallett, who, for this purpose, will pro-
We do not anticipate any insurmountable difficulty
in this negotiation; for, though the amount is a very
large one, the basis upon which it is placed is adequate
to the most trying test. . ~
The land donated bv the Government exceeding
eleven hundred thousand acres, is ot itself a security;

scrupulous capitalist. — Register.
Chattanooga Adrertiser says, that Mr. Coop

A Few Facts for Mrs. Stowe.—Among the negroes
who sailed from Norfolk a few days ago for Liberia,
were 19 belonging to the estate of the late Hr. V m. S.
Andres, a very estimable and intelligent gentleman of
liladeiifcoiintv, who died -o ne four or five years ago.
There are some tacts connected with this circumstance
as honorable to human nature as they are inconsistent
with the inventions of Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, in
her novel. We learned them from one in no wav con
nected with the parties, and take ahbertv “ Inch they
mav not approve of, in mentioning them here.
Hr. Andres bv his will left bis 21 slaves tree to go to
Liberia, if the'-should deeide to do so withiu one vear
after his death. They did ~o> so decide and therefore
became the joint property erf - a sister of the deceased,
and of Robert E. Trov, Esq , a brother-in-law. During
the vear, every facility was afforded to the negroes to
obtain information on which to base their decision
But these facilities were confined to the year limited by
the wilL Thev were continued up to the present year.
A few months ago, Mr. Troy invited March Hooper, an
intelligent negro formerly of this place, (who ha
to Liberia and eame back an enthusiastic advocate tor
the emigration of his friends,) to visit Ins plantation and
tell these people all lie knew ot the Colony. Ihe re
sults was. That 19 out of the 21 finally resolved to go;
and accordinglv Mr. Troy took them to Norfolk, noton
]v giving them'their freedom, but giving them also the
amount of their earnings since the death ot Hr. Andres.
Two refused to emigrate, preferring to remain staves
here, to being free elsewhere. Who shall say that itiey
have not decided wisely.— Fay*iUaU.€ Oo ert r.

Gentlemen: Your communication of the 23rd inst.,
. I received last evening. In reply, I have to assure vou
that the companies do not, for a moment, contemplate
’ making any resistance, to the execution of the contract
• with the Citv, iu relation to the location of the Passen
ger depot, which will make it at all necessary, to resort to
I legal proceedings. 1 speak positively, as far as thiscom
’ panv is concerned, and from my belief, as to the others.
Mr. Scott has, however, proposed that the companies
shall present a petition to the Council, at the next regu
ar meeting, on the subject, explanatory ot their posi
fion, in the matter, with a view of endeavoring to in
duce that body to investigate the matter a little further.
Not, however, with the intention of offering resistance
’ to what they may decide upon, should they adhere to
the present ground they have taken.
, 111 relation to the time, it will probably taka to con

Central It. R. Br’ng Cos. of Georgia, )
Savannah, May 23, 1853. >
To IPs Honor E. L. Strokecb r,
Mayor of Macon:
Dear Sir:—l see that the three Railroad Companies
connecting in your city, are charged by the citizens of
Macon with a design to evade the contract which they
entered into, to build a Common Passenger Depot, at a
designated point on Mulberry street. I beg leave to
assure you, and through you the citizens of Macon,
that there lias been a strange misapprehension of the
course of this Company, in reference to this matter.—
This Company has never requested any alteration of
the contract, and has never entertained the slightest
wish or intention to violate it in any way. On the
contrary, soon after the contract was entered into, I
began the purchase of the necessary ground for the
Common Depot, and in August last, I completed the
purchase, paying some six thousand dollars in cash.—
As soon as tlie bridge over tlie Ocmulgee was near com
pletion, instructions were given for the building of the
Passenger House, and the grading was provided for.—
A contract was made also for materials. During the
progress of the work, I was informed that a large num
ber of the citizens of Macon desired a change of loca
tion, and 1 was asked if this Company would unite in
an application to your Council for a change. 1 de
clined to pursue such a course; but stated that if the
citizens of Macon wanted the change, and would inform
this Company, I would yield to their request, and run
the risk of losing on our investment; provided we were
not called on to contribute any money for anew site.—
I never concealed the opinion, that were Ia citizen of
Macon, I would prefer the point which was agreed on.
j The public became impatient that the Passenger Train
I should cross the river, and 1 agreed, in behalf of this
! Company, to pay its part of the expense of electing a
1 temporary wooden shelter, to be used until the new
j depot should he built. This Company has always been
| willing to comply, literally, with its engagement, and
stands prepared, in every sense, to fulfill it. 1 cannot
suppose that either of the other Companies had any
; wish to break their engagement, and I therefore look
; to the speedy erection ot the buildings at the agreed
j point. Mat I ask of you the favor to give publicity to
this letter. Very respectfully,
Your obedfent serv’t,
R. R. CUYLEII, President.
A joint communication, from Isaac Scott, President
of tlie Maeon & Western Railroad Company, and I* O.
Reynolds, President of the South-Western Railroad
Company, upon the subject of the location of the per
manent Passenger Depot, and requesting that Council
would, as a Committee, meet and confer with them tor
the purpose of agreeing on some other more suitable
location,
Also, the following petition, to which was attached
the signature of over three hundred citizens, was re
ceived aud read in Council, viz:
Zb the Honorable Mayor ami Council
of the City of Macon :
Whereas, At a meeting of your body on the 2uth
inst., 11 committee was appointed to institute legal pro
ceedings against the Railroad Companies, and to coerce
tile said Companies, to build a Passenger Depot for the
present, at the intersection of Sixth and Mulberry
Streets, as provided tor in the contract; and as said
contract, provides further, for tlie selection of a site for
1 permanent Depot, by the joint action and consent oi
the City Council, and the Railroad Companies: the un
ilersigned citizens of Macon, do petition your Honorable
bod*, to stay all proceedings under the resolution ap
pointing said committee, as your petitioners do believe,
that the location at Sixth and Mulberry Sts., will be dau
>_n-rous ot access to our citizens, and directly injurious to
ihe interests of the Citv. We farther petition your
Honorable body, either by a committee,, or as a whole
to consult with the Companies, and if possible unite in
selecting some suitable location for a permanent Depot,
on the line Ilf said juction Railroad, within ihe corporate
limits of the City ofMacou, as is provided for in said con
tract; and your petitioners will ever pray, Ac.
All the correspondence, together with above peti
• ion, was refered to the special committee appointed un
der the resolution refered to.
On motion of Aid. G. W. Adams.
Resoled, That the committee appointed ot the last
meeting of the councils in reference to nil iujuction, Ac.,
against the Railroads, be directed to suspend all action
under said resolution, until otherwise crdeied by a vote
of Council.
Anl he it further Resolved, That the Mayor and
Council, will, on Monday next, as a body, examine the
various proposed locations for a general Passenger De

rjAIIE UNDERSIGNED takes this method of inform-
I mg the public generally, that he will take charge
of this fine and popular Watering Place by the first,
week in June, where he will be prepared to receive, and
accomodate visitors and families, with the very best the
country’ affords, and on terms at once reasonable and
satisfactory. A large and commodious Hotel, couveui
entlv arranged, and well furnished, has just been com
pleted. To this may be added a number of neat and
; comfortable frame CABINS, for the accommodation of
families surrounding the Springs, and convenient to
the tables of tlie Hotel —all, together, enabling the un
dersigned to give extra attention to the comfort and
convenience of visitors and invalids.
The medicinal qualities of the water have been fully
tested—are found <0 be fine, and invigorating—so much
so, that the Springs are in high favor with hundred.-*
who have tested them. They are situated at the base
of the Chilliowee Mountain, more than 2000 feet above
the level of the Sea. The salubrity ol the atmosphere,
and the healthfulness of the climate, are proverbial—
so much so, that these Springs are a private resort in
tiie summer months for our home folks, as well ns for
those who find it necessary to flee from the more sultry
and sickly portions of the South. These Springs are
situated in the county of Blount, 24 miles South of
Knoxville, and about eight miles South of Maryville—
a moral and quiet town. Persons from the South can
reach these Springs by steam to Loudon, on the Rail
road, and up the river to Louisville on Boats, and thence*
by private conveyance, only 14 miles, or from th
Athens Depot, by Stages, only some 50 miles, on a fine
road. Or, if they choose, from Knoxville by Stages,
only 24 miles, on a good road,

exceeds belief Professor Barrt, after a careful ex

of 950,000.
It is unnecessary represent at length the evidences of

The cheapness of ;he article, and the explanations given
of its chemical action upon the hair, the scalp, and in

it to the attention, of the people. This was all that the

effects of the flu .and exceeded expectation. It acted like
