The i announcement of the early appearance of these two ! companies will lead to an extensive hoarding of quai- ; tors, perhaps to a rise in the price of silver, and a j pressure in the money mar ket. 13 r The receipts of the Washington and New Or leans Magnetic Telegraph Company, for October of the present, nave ‘etrorroea tnosc mr itie same mum!, *.r tc.'i year, by $5,000. This is a ten interesting fact, and particularly gratifying to those who own stock in the concern; but the Charleston Courier is hardly justifi able, ia attributing it to the exertions of the new Presi dent of the Company. The increase in its receipts for ’the last month is partly accidental, partly owing to the gradual increase of the business, and altogether to causes over which Mr. Mowry had no coutmL The business of this Telegraph Company, as of all otheis. fco uncertain, and so fluctuating, that we should not ! have regarded a decrease of $3,0*10 in its receipts for ] one mooli: as any evidence of want of fitness for the , duties of his office, in Mr. Smith Mowry, jr.; as we certainly do not consider an increase by that amount us any evidence of his superior fitness. j 53T Tbc first Session of the Thirty-Third Congress begins on ’Monday, the .efa of December. The New j ‘York Herald publishes* ikt of members of the House , and Senate, from which we gather that there aie in the | Senate—thirty-six Democrats, twenty-one Whigs, and six vacancies; and in the House, 159 Democrats, 71 ‘Whigs, arid four vAbolttmiriat—.■besides five delegates ‘ frot., the territories di Minesota v ! >| £ear Mexico. Oregon, Xjta'h and Washington, who art*i’K>t entithsl to vote. In the Senate, S. P. Chase, and t'has. Summ r. Free Soilers, are classed with the De_ oml William H. Seward, Free Softer, with the Whigs. In the House, the Free Soilers muster in considerable strength, but are classed as Whigs wrtLeomr.rata, according us they profess to belong t* ato-owoas- tts ;her sk :onal party.

Xeetiug of the Reptblicau 3f embers of the Legwlatorr. The reorganised Democracy in the Georgia Legisla ture is disorganised, whilst the Futon Party is tirm and J nnited as one man. Tne menfoers of ilie one an* bound together in political asauckrion, -by cordial agreement iu well-defined political principles, asd a common sympa thy in well-understood political objects- the members of the other by a name, and ere the end >f the present Session, it will be demonstrated that the b*nd i- ii weak to hold togdher thetUumn and .Southern Rights wings of the Party. .It must split in m ain, as it has done already, in other States of the Union, and if there vwere no causes tending to such a catastrophe, still there -are no reasoawforits continuance. The offices are dis posed of—the .great exigency demanding union, and harmony and .conciliatioo among the fact ions of the Democratic Party of Georgia is jnstad, the objects < f -their reorganiaation haveffieeti accomplished,and there - no reason why they should not devdope anew the ir. reconcilable differences -which divide them. In the mean time, fheUnton Party is linn in its organization, •unwavering in its faith, and deter 11. if tod never to aban don the principles upon which it was formed, w hich have been sustained by the people, and are every day receiving the enforced acquiescence and approval of ha opponents. A meet mg-Of the Uni** members of Uie Legislature was held .in the Setiate Chamber, on Thursday evening | ■the 17th i**t, Mr. Lambeth, the Union Democratic Sen- j 4ktor from Floyd county, presiding, Addresses were 1 made by Whigs and Democrats, and the Rex. ut on* of the Georgia Convention of 1830, and of the Union Convention of the present year, which noiainated Mr. Jenkins, were re-affirmed, with the following addenda, which contain the substance of the resolutions offered ia the Senate and in the House, by Messrs Pope and Ir win of Wilkes: 8. That we are ready and w itting to co-operate liearti- ‘ ‘ly with all men, North and South, who agree with us in the foregoing announcement of National priucijdes, and that we invite them irresjtoctive of localities and of not- : ty affiliations, to unite with us in the formation of a Na tional Organization to carry out Ibex’ principles ; and ; ‘that Samel S. ©ickinsou, aud his friend-, iti New Yi k, -bar* our warm sympathy in their struggle to establish national principles against the false policy of the Ad ministration, which is seking to combine men of hostile principles by the mere power of public patronage 7. That, we, as members of the Georgia Legislature, belong'ng to the Union Republican party, are w illing to co-operate with any political organization ujkju the principles herein announced. These Resolutions were passed with great enthuri wam, and with perfect unanimity, and the meeting ad journed to assemble again on the evening of the &:d, ] when it is proposed to submit its action for the upprnr- j al of the members of the parly, generally.

Judge Laroe of the First District Court, New Orleans, has resigned bis office, declaring that he can not attend to serve the State tor tke salary which he re ceives—and ue gives the following twteresting fact it political economy, as the wesson .* “The great influx of gold from California and Austra lia, and the great increase of paper circulation all over She world, have permanently depreciated and will con tinue to depreciate with some slight fluctuations, the value of money—thus rendering a salary which was barely sufficient in the first instance, utterly inadequate from the increase of the price of all objects of consump tion.” Judg ■ Larue is the first among the workers w ith tin head who has “struck” for higher wages. EeT It stated upon the authority of a letter re eeivsd fimrn Dr. Parker, the Secretary of our legation at Canton, dated the 3d of September, that the Emper or of Chian, has fled toCehul in Tartary, leaving one of his brothers in charge of the Empire, and that the army of the insurgents was in a few days march of Pekin. The Hon. C. J. Atherton, died Tuesday, Nov i 16, at Manchester. N. H. Removal of the Seat of Government. Governor Cobb, hi his late Message, referred inciden tally to the subject of the removal of the seat of Govern ment, and argued indirectly in favor of its perniauent location at Milledgeville. This reference, together with the wretched accommodations which have been furnish ed the members of the Legislature and visitors to the Capitol, during the present Session, has caused atten tion to be directed to the subject, and among our Legis lators, and among the people, there is an almost univer sal feeling in favor of the removal of the Capitol, some where—anywhere—so it is carried from MiHedgeville. This question is one in which the whole State is inter ested and in the determination of which, the interests of the whole State must be regarded without reference t<> the interest* of Milledgeville, For out-lialf of a centu ry, she has had the benefit of a solemn act of the Legis lature. declaring it the permanent seat o! Government, and yet she h.is gradually retrograded, lot’ population has gradually deserted her, and her real estate lias gradually depreciated, until she cannot furnish decent accommodations for the limited crowd which attends the Sessions ot our General Assembly. This fact is eonceeded, and it is, of itseif, sufficient to justify and to demand the removal of the seat of Government. This questtou is, we repeat, one of expediency to Ik? deter mined with reference to the honor and interest of the whole Sta’e, ai.d without regard to the interests or wishes of the denizens of Milledgeville. If the public I convenience requires a removal if the honor and dig j nity of the State demands that it shall have a Capitol, where its represeutatiues may be accommodated, ami ! where its citizens may sojourn and have the ordinary j comforts of civilized life. there is no need to inquire fur ther —the question is settled, and the removal must be made. Milledgeville has no claims to the permanent j location of the Capitol, (com her position, or from the |victiw*tanrc.i War tir*t It * IKkt | tlie geographical centre of the State, and if it were, it is ! ridiculous to urge this, as a reason for the jwrmanctit he • cation there, of the scat of Government. The geogni* Jphicul Ci n'le of the United States is, perhaps, some I wlictv within the limits of the Indian Territory, west iof the Missouri, and yet it would be absurd to propose • 'he removal of the Federal Capitol from the banks op ’ the Potomac, to the bunks of the Kansas. There is no i importance whatever in a geographical centre. Natu- I rai or artifici 1 facilities of communication create other ! centres, and leave the geographical centre in the woods. 1 This lias been the fact with regard to Milledgeville.— The rivers, the railroads, and the Telegraphic lines, which traverse the State of Georgia, have rendered many localities, far removed from the centre of the j State, more central than Milledgeville. The individu j.tls who bought tk town lots. *~heu originally sold tin” ler the plighted faith of the State, that MiHedgeville . ®.iould he the permanent seat of Government, are not I now iu Milledgeville. They are dead—or have gone [elsewhere in search ot a (tetter field for enterprise, or-a ■ -*‘ore desirable iesidi*nee Tbc lots have been tisinaler |red. They necr acquired value from the location of lie t .ij itol—they cannot loose that which they never nad, by its removal. They have been te-sold at nomi nal prices, f.ir it is a notorious fact that real estate, iu any pleasant village in Georgia, is higher than it is in Milledgeville. The present owners of real esf ate, in that dilapidated village, cannot urge any obligation on the |Ktrt of the State to retain it forever as the Capitol.— I hey cannot c.vjiect tin? State, t<* sncrificecousidcraliuns of public convenience, and keep the Capitol at Milledgc v tile, to maintain a real estate interest which is con temptibly siiiaP, and growing “ beautifollv Jess.” For fifty years, Milledgeville has been endured as tlie scat of Government it has hail every advantage to improve and yet it has retrograded rapidly Sir tire last fifteen years. It is a failure —it never will be built and it is time t deseit the collection of rookaties. Fifty veins sa long—a very long time, in this fast age Within iiirty-five vests, a huge portion of our teuitorv lias H-eu redeemedfiwm the Indians, and it is non crowded ’ i*h cities and towns and villages larger than the Gapi ol of the State. Within that time, giant strides have •een made by tL - -State, iu material progress, and she ow Stands poeiless among her Sisters of the South.— •lillcdgeviHc has not partaken of that progress—and if n tK>4,with the lights before them then, our legisla ors deemed it a suitable place for the Capitol, with tlie igbts Irefire them now, xbey must decide otherwise. Macon is not anoq>plicant for tire loca ion of the Cap. ,toI. I’ublic attention is turned to it, as the most eligi ric spot iu casa-of removal, and her enterprising citi ens can, and will, it necessary, nSer indaermeuts, for ts selection, as the permanent sent of Government. It C near the geographical centre of the State, it is, what is more impiwtor.t still, the Railroad centre of the State, ind has at this moment, better and more hotel accom modation, than any city in Georgia. If the Federal Union, and the correspondent of the Savannah R.pt.b. iMh, who have recently ridiculed her accoMmodations, rod had the audacity to nan j are iheix wit.h those of diiledgeville, need any proof of this fact, we i*?fo> them o the thousands who have visited Macon, during Mass •leetings. awi Fairs, and uave been comfortably -entcr a:.i;*-d. -Or if they are uot eras vii.erst that tie- present rot-Is of this ei’y, eight in number) are sufficient o aecoiumodatc tke LegisiaUtre, t.ud ks visitos-s, we ell them there is energy and enterprise and capital. i >rtr city. suSie is'.it to increase them, nnd to make them •apulric of entertaining \\ ills net iix*iitcut"tice, the Leg islature. its victors, and Ik- whole population of the little village of Milledgeville, snperadded.

The President’s message will lie sent <0 the I ‘ostmasters of tbe most important cities in advance, to Ilie given to the newspaper* the moment it is presented ( o Congress. A Short Retrospect. The Federal appointments by tbe Administration in this State, have been made almost exclusively from the Southern Rights wing of the Reorganized Democracy- The Congressmen elected upon the Reorganized Demo cratic ticket, are, with n single exception, Southern Right men, and some of them violent, ultra, and ex treme in their Southern Rights opinions. The large majority of the Democratic members of the Legislature are Southern Rights men. Tbe Governor elect, the State House officers, with one exception, and tbe two Judges of the Supreme Court, are all Southern Rights men. From the time that the reorganization ot the Democratic Party of Georgia was first attempted, the Union Democracy of the State has been subjected to continued and mortify ing humiliation. 1 bey have aid ed to give flit? organization of the Party, and the politi cal power of the Statejton faction which pioscribcs them> and which will not tecognro* them as entitled to any of the honors of the party. They have been tlie ea.\V dupes of their Southern Rights allies, giving them strength, importance, and power to crush them, aud quietly submitting 1o be slaughtered. 1 lie fact that the Reorganized Democracy of Georgia, is the Southern Rights Party of if not fully established by the elections which have recently been held in this Stute < is demonstrated by the nomination in tbc Democratic caucus last week, of C. J. McDonald over Howell Cobb. Cobb is tbe recognized leader of tbe Union Democracy of Georgia—was early in his desertion of tlie Union Partv, and noisy in his advocacy of the election of a Southern Rights Secession Governor. Tlie efforts he has made to reinstate bintself in the confidence of the Southern Rights wing of his Party, have been bold, un tireing, humiliating. He has not permitted political consistency, personul respect, or the proprieties ot his official station to stand in the way, or prevent anyeffor: for the accomplishment of this great object, lie has stooped to conqeur, and has been ignotniniously spurned by those whose favor he sought. lit the Democratic caucus 011 Wednesday night last, lie made a very con temptib!e show of strength, and was defeated easily by the Ex-President of tlie Nashville Convention. This then is the interpretation of “union and harmony” as understood by the Southern Rights Democracy ; a tin - nopoly of the offices, and humiliation to all who have been guilty of reverence for the Union, or devotion to the Compromise. We cannot exult in the success of McDonald, or sympathise with Cobb in his defeat. Ib is down down among the dead men, and owes his lofty tumble to his rapid changes of principle and of policy, and to his vaulting ambition which o’etleapt itself There he must remain, without the sympathy ot tlie Union Whigs of Georgia, who, had he been true to his political committals in 1850, and followed where they lead, would have stood by him as one man, and honor ed hint to-day, as one of the ablest exponents of tlie principles of the Republican Party. McDonald was nominated in caucus, lint the las’ scene ot ail which ends this strange eventful history of the divisions of the Democratic Party of Georgia, was upneted in tne Senate Chamber on Friday morning. Tlie Senate refused to meet the House and proceed to the election of a Senator, ns provided by their joint tcs ( - lntion assented to by the Governor. This was done bv a few of Cobb’s friends, with tbe aid of the Union Pat ty. For these few disaffected Democrats, who have > 1 at defiance the will of the Legislature, to defeat the will of their party, the largest charity can not find the sem blance of an cx cnee. We are obliges! to them for post- 1 polling the election, and farther obliged to their, for te- ] viving the bitter feeling of hate, which divided the two wings of their Party in 1850-Vl. Corrtrptndence of the ■l.urwd (■ LEGISLATURE OF GEORGIA. Moxniy Mousing, Nox. 14lh. The House met this morning at I<> o’clock. After the Journal was read, Mr. Rucker, of Elbert county, ap peared, was qualified, and took his seat. The Speaker then announced tkesiandinp Committees of the House of Representatives. They are i.f a very different complexion from those of the Senate, and produce quite a contrast between the two gentlemen who preside over the different bodies. Mr. Speaker Ward is a high toned, and accomplish! I gentleman, and has been studious, in the discharge >f this delicate re sponsibility, of the great interests involved, and lias sought out those gentlemen on both sides of the House best qualified for the various positions, to which he has assigned them ; atni I believe he has given general s it r - faction in his disposition of the public business. He has for instance, placed the very aide Representive from Richmond county, Alexander C. Walker, Chairman of the Committee on Internal Improvements, and the foamed member front Wilkes, Mr. Irwin, Chairman of tbe Cixiiinittee on Banks. The Judiciary Commitlue is composed of the Lawyers on both sides of the House, and is uhlv constructed for ihe transaction of such bu siness as will lie before them.

A Bill was introduced to rejieal an Act to require all persous applying for a writ of Habeas Corpus, in any State case, to give the prosecutor notice of the time and place when said application will be heard ; approv ed January 23d, 1850. Mr. Robinson, of Macon, introduced a Resolution directing the Judiciary Committee to report a Bil creating separate Criminal Courts in this State. A Bill was introduced hv Mr. Dabney, of Gordon, to require all promises, or acknowledgments of Debts, after the Statute of Limitations commenced running, to be reduced to writing, in order that said Debts may be revived. The Senate then joined the House to elect two Judges I of the Supreme Court, and the Officers of the State I House. In the House of Representatives, Mr. McDougald, of Muscogee, moved to suspend the rules, in order to read the third time a Bill authorizing the Treasurer to make certain advances. After the leading of several Bills for the second time, Ihe General Assembly proceeded to the elections, which were the Sjiecial Order of the day. The result of them is as follows: For Judge of Supreme Court, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Hiram Warner, Hon. E. Starnes received 220 votes; scattering 5.

Wednesday, Nov. l'ith, 1855. The Senate met at lo A. M. Mr. Mosely introduced a Resolution this morning, to refer so much of the Governoi’s Message a.s relates to the te moral of the seat of Government, to a committee of 0:10 from each Judicial District. Mr. Pope, of Wilkes, introduced a Bill to change the l>t section and Ist article of the Constitution, so that hereafter the Legislature of Georgia shall meet annu ally, instead of bi-ennially. Mr. Hull of Clark, introduced 11 Bill to repeal so much of tlie Act in relation to the University of Georgia, as requires the officers to take oaths, and to change the time of the meeting of the Senatus Academicus, to Thursday on the first week of the Session of the Legis lature. The Governor sent a message, announcing that he had signed a resolution bringing on the election of a United States Senator, on Friday. In the House of Representatives this morning Mr. Green ot Bibb, introduced a Bill to increase the num ber of Judges of the Supreme Court to five, and make them elective by the people. A tew other Bills were in troduced, but nothing of general interest done in the 11 ■ >li -e W - lay- T.* ni-lit the Democratic Caucus met, about 121 meni bets being present —Hon. John K. Ward, Speaker o the House presided. On *the first ballot for United State* Senator, Howell Cobb received 51 votes, C. J. McDonald “ iil “ Alfred Iverson “ 27 “ Gov. McDonald increased on every ballot, till the seventh, when he received 80 votes, Howell Cobb 15, Allied Iverson 10 —so Gov. McDonald was duly nomi nated ifie candidate for Senator oti the part of the Democratic Party. Several of Mr. Cobb's friends left the Caucus with disgust. This is the result we fully expected would take place. Thersdw, Nov. 17. The Senate met this morning at lo o'clock, A. M. The only subject of interest transacted in both Houses ti - lav, ivas the discussion of a set of Resolutions intro duced into the Senate by Mr. Pope of Wilkes, and iu'o the House by Mr. Irwin. [These resolutions are omit ted on account of their length.] The motion to print, was, after much warm discus sion in the Senate —carried by the following vote, 53 to 42. Mr. Irwin made an able speech in the House in favor | of them, but the motion to print was lost by nine ma ! jorily. Friday, Nov. 18. | The most interesting and exciting scene that has yet lieen enacted in the Legislature, took place to-day in tlie I Senate. , Dr. Singleton offered a Resolution to repeal the Reso j Union, bring on the election of a United States Senator J tieday, and to postpone it until the next Session of the j Legislature. Mr. Stephens of Hancock, moved to take it uj>, and j upon ihat, called the previous question. The Presi dent jiaid 110 attention to the call for the previous qitesi 1 lion. Mr. Sturgis of Muscogee, moved to lay it upon the table. The Clerk of ihe House announced that the House were ready to receive the Senate. Mr. Clark of Baker, moved to repair to the Senate.- The call for the previous question was again made, and treated with tlie same neglect. The Ptv.iident decided that Mr. Clark’s motion was in order--an appeal was taken front the decision of the Chair, and the Senate reversed it by ajmajority of five The call for the previous question was again made.— Mr Clark renewed his motion iu a different form —the President decided that his motion was iu order—an ap peal was again taken with the same result. The previous question was then put aud carried, and the main question on Dr. Singleton’s Resolution was carried I y a majority of four. .-to the election of a United States Senator was post j oned by tbe Senate. S.vitro ay, Nov. 19. Nothing of general interest took jvlace in either branch of the Legislature. No attempt was made to re consider the vote of yesterday in the Senate. The Sec tional Democracy are in a state of considerable excite, meiit in regard to it. It is supposed that they will watch their opportunity to renew the matter when some ot the •Union Senators are absent —but this game will be prop erly guarded. They have scut for Mr. Cobb, to aid them, but 1 think he will keep away from the political Golgotha—where he might be frightened by seeing the ghosts of the headless bodies of himself and friends stalking about the Democratic Caucus Chamber, at the Capitol, at midnight. SiTEtuoß Court of Greene County.—The Chris tiau Index, of the 12th inst., says: “An adjourned session of the Superior Court of Greene county was held in Greensboro lost week. The case of the State against Benj. F. Willet, charged with the murder of Felix W. Janes, was brought up on \Ved it. sday morning. The day was spent in jnocuringa jury, and examining witnesses. The case was argued on Thursday, in behalf of the State, by Messrs. Wing field. Toombs, Cone, and the State's Solicitor, and in behalf of the prisoner, by Messrs. Reese, Dawson and Stephens. About sundown the argument was closed. Judge Hardeman delivered his charge, and the Jury retired. S.mti after 10 o’clock, P. M., they returned with a veidict of acquittal.” Jif Ase v days ago, savsflte Louisville Courier, we lookup the N.

The Washington Union and all other Locofoco organs have been proclaiming that tlie administration gives no patronage except to those who stand squarely ujion the Baltimore jtlatform.— What do the Washington Union and all tbe other Lo cofoco organs think of themselves? REMOVAL OF THE SEAT OF GOVERNMENT MA CON AND WARRENTON RAIL ROAD-SAVAN NAH VS. MACON. Messrs. Editors:*— If any oik* should doubt (hut there is, among the people of Stvannah, a deep seated hostili ty to the intersts of Macon, let him refer to a recent editorial of the Savannah Republican, which is now be ing flaunted through the columns of newspapers in Georgia ; jealous of the rising prospects ot Macon. It relates to the permanent location of the seat of Govern ment. I have carefully examined the article in question, and a more contemptible and invidious string of sophisms, I have never known to be published in a newspaper pos sessing the acknowledged ability of the Repo l can. Let ns for a moment examine some of “the best and strongest reasons for fixing the seat of Government permanently at Milledgeville,” assigned by the sapient Editor of the paper referred to: First, I do not believe that any test has been made by “a Ink Surveyor Gao rai which resulted, as stated by the Republican, in the discovery, that “die centre ot Georgia was at the Flat Shoals of Connnissioneis Greek, about Midway, between Macon and Milledgeville."— This is an old song which has been sung bv the people of Milledgeville, whenever this subject of removal has come up, for the last quarter of u century. This “late Surveyor General’’ has always been quoted as authori ty for locating tlie centre ol’the Stateat the Flat Shoals. Now this Surveyor, in question, was no other than Daxikl Sti kgks, Esq., and he died SO years ago! It is believed, tlmt no other person ever put himself to the trouble of making the calculation, and certes I nevet heard any other given as authority in the premises, ex cept Mr. Star gee. The rediculous assumption, that “Milledgeville was on all hands, conceded as early as freri-, to be the most eligible spot looking not only to the existing condition of the State, but to the future i. c. to the reality of the present day,” is too absurd to command serious atten tion. No man in his senses, can suppose for a moment, that the people of “1804” could possibly have foreseen the present condition of Georgia, with her Steam boats —her Rail Roads her Magnetic Telegraphs—her Fac tories, Boundaries, Machine shops, and her immense vegetable and mineral productions, which now enable her by common consent, to take rank as the “Empire State of the South ” The people of 1804 located the seat of Government at Milledgeville, more from necessity than choice. The river# in the interior of the State, were in tlio.se days deemed to be of some value, and the location was fixed at that point, solely h cause it was supposed to be the lent of Mari nation on t!o Oconee Hirer. Otherwise it 1 would have been located a once at the famous “centre” |on Commissioners Creek—lor .1/ eon, which was equal i ly near that centre, and at the head of Navigation on a I much better river, was at that time, an Indian hunting ground, and the peo; h* of 1804 could not, if they would, have h cated the seat of Government here. To prove that the people of that remote period did not look to the present condition of Georgia, it is quite sufficient to adduce the fact, that the Hirer, which as before stated, was the principal cause of their locating the seat of Government at Milledgeville, lias ceased to I be navigated for nearly “oyears; and so far front bene fitting the place, has proved to be a great annoyance from its miserable fogs and ferries. It is well known that the people of that place, have for years and years past depended first on the Georgia, and then on the Central Railroad for the means of trans portation. The H<pate lean has thought proper to refer to the struggle which occurred in 1549-’oo, and “ended” as he says, by “retaining Milledgeville as the seat of Govern ment,” by a loan from the State of j>2o,ooh, to the Mil ledgeville and Gordon Railroad Company —and a sub scription by the Central Railroad in iron of $20,000 more. There was no occasion for the Republican to remind tts of that contest; we well remember it, and the cir cumstances connected with it. The means by which the nulx referred to were brought about, are fresh in our memory. Rut for the active hostility of a prominent member from Savannah, there is but little doubt that Macon would now be the Capital of Georgia, and the members, and visitors to the Legislature, instead of be ing packed and jammed in stalls like cattle, would be to-day luxuriating in our elegant hotels, and guided in their evening promenades by our brilliant gas lights. The people and friends of Macon, will not fail to recol ect the petty i>,r> --otto ■ which canto from Savannah on that occasion. As to the subscription of $20,000 to the Model Rail road from Gordon to Milledgeville, it is well understood to have been n Jintsse on the part of Milledgeville, and the enemies of Macon, to strength the claims of the forniei place to the retention of the seat of Government. It was accomplished, probably, by the same influence which defeated the will of (lie people in reference to the removal, and the people of Macon will also bear that in mind. Rut then, it seetns that the Central Railroad, alias Savannah, has an interest of $20,000 or. more in this same Milledgeville Road. And here lies trio secret of the wonderful change which has come over .he Repub lican, since the noted struggle of which it speaks. The Central, or Savannah Company has an interest of £20,- 000 worth of old iron in the Milledgeville Road, and the Republican must stand up totlie inteiest ot Savannah and her Road, whether the members of the Legislatme, their familes, and their friends can be accommodated or not, particularly, as “die prospect is that a Railroad will be constructed from Milledgeville by Sparta, to Warrenton. Don't fret Mr. H publican ! That Road will be built— but as certainly as the sun shines, it will run by or through Milledgeville, instead of “from” it. Let all the people interested in this connection with the Augusta and Charleston Roads, note the petty jeal ousy and hostility here indicated by a portion of the Savannah pres*, to one of the most valuable enterprises which has ever been started in Georgia. The people of Middle and Western Georgia as well as those of Au gusta, have a deep interest in the proposed Road, and they will rebuke the impudence which seeks to ob struct their wishes. The Republican cannot escape from this imputation by the plea ot ignorance. Not a paper, or a public meeting has referred to the Warrcnton Road, without designating Macon as one of its t-'em ni. No wonder that the selfishness of Savannah and the cupidity of the Central Railroad, should thus early take the alarm. The latter concern has fattened too long on its unjust discriminations against Macon, not to view with trepidation the remotest prospect of another out let from Macon to the Atlantic. But the interests of Augusta and the Georgia Railroad, require a connection with the various Roads which concentrate at Macon, and the interests of all Middle and Western Georgia impe riously demand some relief from the tyranny of the Central Railroad. If the term inns of the new Road should be at Mil ledgcville, the £20,00” interest of the Central Road would still be preserved, and that Road would possess the power, by turning everything down to Gordon, and then by throwing obstacles in the way of transporta tion across the country, to force it down to Sav annah. Hence the new born zeal of the Republican’ in behalf ot Milledgeville, and his efforts to impress the public mind with the idea of making that place the starting point of the Road to Warrenton. But the Republican refers to the uncertainty which hangs over the prospects of Milledgeville, and is said to deter holders of real estate from improving their'proper* ty. He says “a public statute under which the lots of the town were sold, declare the spot to be tin pe, man■ nt seat of Government. This declaration alone,” he says “sold the property,” and adds, after referring to the losses which will be sustained by the Milledgeville and Gordon Road, and the State buildings at Milledgeville n the event of a removal, “Milledgeville will be mined, and her people who settled the place on the faith of the State will be deeply and uuueees nily injured.” Now this is all gammon, and looks more like it had been written by a citizen of Milledgeville, than the editor of a Savannah paper. What arc the facts? Why, the people who bough* lots when they were sold some 50 years ago, have long since parted with their interest in them. Finding that the place did not meet public expectation, they sold out and moved off to Macon, to Columbus, and to more flourishing towns and cities in the West. The present holders in almost every instance, bought their property with all the uncertainties annexed, and at merely nomi nal prices. How will they be ruined by the removal ? Not by the decline in the value of their lots, for they cost but little —nor by ihe loss of trade, for Milledgeville does not now with all the advantages of the seat of Go vernment, support more business than Eatonton, or Sparta, or any other country village—and besides lacing situated on a public Railroad she can surely maintain her present prosperity, and if she cannot, is it just or proper to ask all the people of Georgia interested in the public business, to sacrifice their comfort and conveni ence in a fruitless endeavor to uphold her? I trow not. Again, the Republican says, “one brief act of the Leg islature will build up a flourishing city (meaning Mil ledgeville,) in the heart of the State.” In what manner, pray? By a simple resolution declaring it to be the per mmtnt eat ‘f Governs i be editor says the Leg islature did that very thing 0 years ago 1 Did it bum! ‘up a flourishing city by that act? or has the position ,t Milledgeville changed of late and become more com manding, whilst those of Macon and other prominent places have become less so? Or does the editor mean to -ay, that the Legislature now lias more power *o pre vent future agitation of this subject, than she had ib times past ? I presume not. By what rule of reason ;be i. does the editor assume hat the Legislature can b. . o.w senile*, suddenly in fuse life and vigor in a place which never had an. .’ it will not be forgotten, that M- 1 -dgeville hid lull sw y J vi'ibout cumpction over till Middle Georgia lor to- >*■ a :i her tally career. Did she become a great city ; >t tall. Why did she not prosper and take rank a. a mmmetcial place? simply because her citizens lacked ■uterjuise, and her position suitable inducements. It vas earlv foreseen that her location was not a good one, ■md the ’<• o lookmg to the future settlement ot the I Western part of the State, lost confidence in Millntp i eilL* and abandoned it. But notwithstanding all these facts, the Si ’ Republic ru would now hare the Legislature to take u - ler its fostering care, a place which has long since !*.-i j Inserted by its first settlers, and those who held da ndy plausibleclaims to Legislative sympathy ami favor. I shall not notice the rebellious farago about bids for he seat of Government -heavy Railroad sacrifices, and he alledged destruction which is to crush the hopes of •entral Georgia. Macon has made no bid for the seat of Government— •lie lias not even broached the subject since the noted ‘toggle refered to by the H fntldkan. It must have icen started afresh by the people of Milledgeville them selves, from a consciousness of their own weakness, ot have grown out of the officiousness of Gov. Conn, who, smarting under his isolation for the last two years, was tnxious to provide greater comforts for his succes>ors, bun he had been able to find during his sojourn at that place. 1 have said that Macon does not bid for the seat of Government, but if it should become necessaiy for the public convenience to locate it here, the Savannah Re publican and all others interested, may rest assured that the erection of buildings suitable to the dignity of the i foremost southern State, shall cost the Legislature no thing but the trouble of passing the act, . I cannot conclude this subject without calling the at tention of our business men, and others interested in Mm •on, to this new evidence of the settled hostility to her interests on the part of the Central Railroad, and a 1 portion of the press and people of Savannah. I might enlarge upon this branch of the subject and present other striking considertions, but at present, I forbear. Let the people of Macon, however, go seriously to work to protect themselves—to provide means to pm up i :he public buildings if i! sh- ml be necessary, and i above all things, get the w hip-hand of Savannah aud i l.c Central Railroad, by securing a rival Road to the At : lantic llirough Augusta and Charleston.
