This rule has lately had further verification through Misses Mackie £, and Rosa B. Loo. daughter* of Rev. J. 1’. Lee, and Miss Salliu P. Barker, daughter of Mr. Qeorgo R. Barker, all of this city. Those young bnlioe are in attendance upon the Collegiate Institute, at Fort Edward, New York, tho fall term of which has just closed. Miss Mackio Lee and Miss Barker are in tho senior literary close, and lioro off the liigh.wt literary and ora torical prises against all opposition; while Mi.e Ron Leo achieved tho dis tinction of the highest standing in tho academic class. We are glad to hoar eneh excellent rc ports of the girl*. It is nn honor to them, and also to Wesleyan Female Col lege of this city, which laid the founda tion upon which those young Indies are so successfully building. The Watkins. Mr. and Sir*. Wntkin* dosed their en gagement at Ralston Hall last night. The occasion was the joint benefit of Mrs. Watkins and little Amy tee, and tho play was The J/i,t Jen Hand. Whilo the play present* some very fine situations, a* a whole we regard it ns ono of tho most in different in the repertoire of tho troupe. Thr play given fine scope to tho talents of Mrs. Watkin*. and also to some of the other airwbcrs of the troupe; but Mr. Watkins’ part falls below the standard of his ability. He is bust iu Irish charac ter ; but does net come entirely up to public expectation as a delineator of ne gro character. The play, however, taken altogether, wiu moat satisfactory to the audience, many of tho scenes sticiting the heartiest ipproval. Tho plantation scene* were jurticuinrly good, and carried us back to the old Mines in the South, when things wore as they used to bo, and everybody was a grewt dnal happier than now. The Watkins may always feel aasurod of a welcome when they come to Macon. No troujx> gives better satisfaction, or wins more cordial approval at the ha....-- of playgoers. Fo:n. i mli ivccty liaving prung up :is to who wai the author of tie- Atlantic anl Gnat We t -rn Canal heme, it may not be amiss to lay be .’ore our readers some facts which will at once settle the question, st least until some one discov er* older and at the tame time equally reliable authority. At present there is no doubt in our mind that the scheme originated with the late Dr. Tomlinson Fort, of MTOedgeville, at that time, and was pushed by him for many years with great energy, until he saw no hope of a realisation of his grand project. In 1823 Dr. TomliruonFort was a mem ber of the Georgia Legislature. In look ing over the journal of the Assembly for that year (as published in the Georgia Statesman, a weekly newspaper printed in Milledgcvillo) we find tha'. in Novem ber Dr. Fort introduced a biB looking to a union of tho waters of the Atlantic ocean with those of the Tennessee or Mississippi by means of a great central canal or railrOod. That was before the era of railways in America, and at the time when the whole country was agog over the completion of the Great Erie ca nal scheme. Dr. Fort was hot able to carry oot his project through tho Georgia Legislature, but in 1827, while a member of Congress, ho introduced a bill to the effect that the General Government construct the canal as a national work of internal improve ment. This bill was defeated by the Southern members of Congress, os being against the policy of the South that the Federal Government should make inter- nal improvement* in the States. Below wo print a copy of Dr. Fort’s bill ns it was introduced into the General Assembly of the State i A Bird. To be entitled on act to lay out a Central Canal or Itoilway through tho State. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Geor gia in General Assembly met, and by the authority of the same, it is hereby enacted. That the Board of Public Work* appointed by this Legislature shall, so soon as they enter upon the duties of their appointment, take into considera tion tho construction of on artificial canal between the Atlantic coast of this State, or the navigable waters which enter the sea within the limits of the same and the western limit of the present inhabited part of the State, and to search for and investigate the best route by which such canal may be conducted with the ultimate object of joining tho waters of the Ten- neuco or Mississippi rivers; a canal to be so laid out as to run os near tho center of the State as may be convenient. And tho lioar.1 of Public Works aforesaid are hereby further required to investigate, consider and hare surveyed tho best routes by which canals may be united with the Central Canal at the best and most convenient point to facilitate tho communication with the Savannah river, and on tho other ride to join tho next principal river on tho southwestern side of tho main canal abovo mentioned. S*c. 2. And be it further enacted, that for the purpose of procuring a main chan nel of commercial intercourse, with a due regard to economy and tho true interest* of tho people of this State, tho Board of Public Works shall, at tho same time, toko into consideration the comparative advantages of substituting artificial rail ways for tho canals aforementioned, and it shall he tlicir duty to call to their aid all tho men of fiMoneo which they may deem mv cssary to enable them to report fully on tho comparative advantages of canals or railways to fulfill tho intention of this act. Sec. 3. And lie it further enacted, That tho Board of Public Works shall, so soon ns may bo practical after tho passing of this act, cause tho territory of this State winch may lie upon or contiguous to tho courses pnd ranges of said canals or railways to bn explored and examined, for the purpose of fixing anil determining the most eligible and proper routes for the same, and to cause all necessary sur veys and levels to be taken, and accurate maps, field books and drafts thoreof to bo made; and, further, to draft and re commend proper plans for the construc tion and formation of said canal* or rail ways, togstksr with all locks, tunnels, bridges, pr other necessary works to carry this act into complete .effect, agd to causo all necessary plans, drafts ami model* thereof to bo oxecuted under thoir direction. Sso. 4. And be it farther snooted, That it sliall be the duty of said board to have made, with as much accuracy practicable, estimates of the sum or sums of money that may or will bo necessary for completing eoeh of tho canals or rail way*. according to the plan or plans adopted or recommended by them. And they shall especially causo a comparative estimate of the expense of canals and railway* on the several routes surveyed, and of the advantages of each respect ively. And thoy sliall cause the said cal culations and estimates, and all surveys, maps, field books, plans, draft* and mod els authorized and directed by this act, or so many thereof os may be completed, together with a plain and comprehensive report of all their proceedings under and liy virtue of this act, to bo presented to tho Legislature of this State within ten >lays of the commencement of the next regular annual session thereof.
