(Anting Hisputclj- M »a s i .'- <a :< >: Thursday Kvoms. Os - ■». **'’»■ «.i»VPHI»at«-H for tlie Session »*' *** , Pai.y Legislature. g Proprietor of the Dispatch expect s < tj spend the session in Milledgeville, and j will report the daUy proceedings of both Houses in time to appear in our paper f on the day following. This will enable . us to present the very latest intelligence from the seat of Government, and to give not only an account of the regular proceedings, but an impartial review of the outside current of popular feeling, and metropolitan gossip. We confi dently expect a large accession to oui subscription list, to repay us for the ad ditional expense of keeping an editor at the capitol. • In addition to the proceedings of the Legislature the Dispatch will contain the latest intelligence from all quarters of the globe. Terms, daily, for the ses sion, sl. A "Live Spiritualist After Is. That pink of editorial courtesy and Christian propriety—Rev. L. 1- M ■ Akbrbws of the Christian Spirituaut—bet ter known as the editor of the Georgia Cit iun, is down on us like a small brick kiln on account of our late condemna tory notice of his spiritual organ. After indulging a very low-flung, con temptible and characteristic allusion to theeditor of the Dispatch, as a Northern man. he publishes our notice of his new paper, as follows : .< Wo see by a table published in this number, that there are computed to be ; in America 1,037,500 Spiritualists—a 1 larger number of demented folks than we thought the intelligence of this coun try could support, but we are glad that only about 60,000 out of the number is put down to the slave or Southern States, and we hope to see these dimin ish until they grow beautifully less.-- Spiritualism, like Abolitionism, and all other isms of the day, including ITcc sofiism and Fourierism, is an institution of the North and West—the soil there is congenial to its growth—there let it remain and flourish. We wish to ini' nothing to do with any of them, ns t-' is as much as those living in hi ; States can do, to prevent these fa i iticv from spiriting away their elans i be taken to Canada and starved to dial u But eveu supposing there is some truth . in Spiritualism—what good has it cvei done f” He then goes on to state : The “ Dispatch” has thus taken the , unwarrantable liberty of charging upon Spiritualism that it is identical with that Northern Abolitionism which spirits awaj , the slaves of the border States to Can- a j ; . By a fair inference, aud one which he plainly desires to impress upon | his readers, Southern Spiritualists are Abolitionists in sentiment and fanatics in opinion, therefore they must not be per mitted to dwell in the South! This is the gist of the above paragraph, if there is any meaning at all in it. Yet., some of the subscribers to the “Dispatch” in this place are Spiritual ists—the class denounced by this would be immaculate guardian of Southern rights ! We charged no such thing, aud no body hut one “demented” or deter : mined blindly, willfully and malicious- , ly to misrepresent us, would so construe it. We merely intimated —and our meaning is patent —that the new-fan gled “ologies” and “isms” are indigen ous to the North and West, while they are exotics, South. If oiir readers in Macon or the people of the South choose to investigate the mysteries of spiritu alism, it is none of our business, and certainly uo one has a right to disturb them. We trust society will sustain no injury by it. But u-c believe, and wo certainly have the right to express it, that it is a prof itless and dangerous field of specula tion ; one in which few minds can en gage without injury. We do not be lieve that God intended for his creatures in this world to know anything about the condition of those who have gone before them, to the spirit land; and we do not believe, that—granting it were possible—well-ordered and wor thy spirits would stoop from the celes tial sphere to indulge in the fantastic tricks of table-turning and other mum mery of the spiritual philosophy, as 1 exhibited in their “circles,” and pub lished narratives. We greatly fear, from the temper exhibited by the Doc tor toward the verdant souls who have never been favored with celestial visi tations, that even lie has stumbled into companionship with “unclean spirits” and been defiled of them. But he proceods: We feel that our self-respect will not permit us to answer the insinuations of the “ Dispatch,” as they deserve, and will dismiss him to the scorn of those whom he has so wantonly assailed. If his self-respect caused him to su : •pend his misrepresentations of us, we are c arious to know to what extent lie w ould have gone without that restraining in fluence. We thank him for confiding our doom to the hands of his aggrieved brethren. We will endeavor to endure any company but his, provided he does not turn us over to his spiritual confre res. Here is his conclusion : ‘ 1 Beware Simeon, how you scatter your venom.” Thou needst not fear our venom, — I “Frederick Leonidas William,” foi l thou hast enough for a half-dozen re spectacle devils already. Having disposed of the spiritual man ifesto seriatim, we shall be content to lei the “soft impeachment” in reference to cur birth-place, go by default. It b not our fault that we were not horn in Coorgia, any more, perhaps, than it is that of our spiritual chevalier that he 4M&e into the world somewhat defici «*t in many of those qualities that Akvate and adorn human nature. The writer of the article that call- . ed out his ire lias been for twenty- five years connected with the Geoigia | press, aud has never been threatened , by a mob on account of supposed free 6oilism, and is not conscious of having rendered himself obnoxious to any community in which he ever lived, either from a want of correct Southern sentiments, or any of the qualities that constitute respectable citizenship. If we have been personal, Doctor, re member that you cast the first stone. We are done with the whole matter. Tlie Columbia Times. Tile Daily Oolvmbus Times came to hand yesterday in a new and handsome dress, and makes quite a neat and re spectable appearance. It is always a welcome visitor to our sanctum, aud we wish it prosperity. «■"— —*o* The Mulls. We publish below a letter from! Bainbridge, to which we would partieu larly call the attention of route agents j The mail for South-western Georgia we j generally send to the Waynesboro’ De- j pot, to destributed by the mail agent " Bainbridge, Ga., Oct. 23, '6B. Me. S. A. Atkinson —Dear Sir: —All our merchants who are subscribers to the Dispatch depend entirely upon you for Cotton news, as you are generally 24 hours ahead of any other paper, when ever we can got the paper regularly— but we often get two or three papers at once, and sometimes no paper—aud of- ’ ten it comes up from the South four or j five days old. There must be a screw loose some where above here, and if you were to blow up the Post Masters on the route, probably they would do better. I have no doubt but that onr mail is sent by Thomasville from Albany very often—the reason it comes up from the South. Hoping you may effect some change for the better, I am yours truly, B. • i The merchants of Boston have con tributed and forwarded $l,lOO to the Howard Association of New Orleans. '•< There was- a decrease in the taxable property of San Francisco, for the pre sent fiscal year, as compared with the last, of considerably more than $4,500.- 000. It is estimated that pipes amounting in value to $30,000 per annum, are manufactured in the county of Appo- j mattox, Va. Miss Eliza Logan is at the Museum, ] Boston. E. P. Nash, a well known book seller of Petersburg, Va., died on the 22d inst. The Lynchburg, Va , Theatre, is to be j opened on the 2d proximo, by Knnkel | & Co. Boston is always experimenting in j pavements. A few years ago, they paved Washington street with blocks of wood. This rotted, and they laid down an iron pavement. This has not suited, and tlie whole street is interrupted by paviers laying down the old-fasliioned j cobble stones. The thermometer in England was j higher last month on the average than during any September since observations j have been marie; and the London papers are discussing the question; whether the comet has anything to do with the extraordinary mildness of the j season. - A meeting of citizens was recently j held at Brooklyn, for the purpose of j taking measures to erect an opera house j there, at which a couple of clergyman, | Kev. Drs. Stores and Farley, acted quite , conspicuous parts. Mrs. McMahon, the New York “Fifth j Avenue” actress, does not seem to gain j in favor with the public. Last Saturday I night she was hissed off the stage in De-, troit. .«. The Boston Atlas says there was a great crowd at Trinity Church, on the ! morning of the Oth inst , to witness a “fashionable wedding.” The three! bridesmaids were dressed in deep scarlet. j [From ike Savannah Nevcsf] REPORT.

Governor: Silt In compliance with the provis ions of an act of the 28th December, j 1843, I have the honor to lay before your Excellency a statement of the re-j ceipts and disbursements at the Treasu- i ry during the fiscal year 1858, showing | a balance in tlie Treasury at the end of the year, of $455,918 66. Os this balance $455,918 65, dow in 1 the Treasury, there is, however, una , vailable, the sum of $325,564, consist ing of the following items, viz: Bank stock, (Education Fund.) $290,900 00 Stock in Milledgeville and G. Railroad, 20,000 00 Darien Bank bills, 2,237 25 Western & Atlantic Rail road Scrip, 4,784 75 Uncurrent funds, 7,642 00 Total, -.5325,554 00 Leaving an available balance in the Treasury of $130,354 65 to meet the balauce unpaid on the appropriations for 1858,' amounting to the sum of Ski 0,130 43, There was an available balance-iu the Treasury on the 20th Oc tober, 1857, of $112,2.j2 16, to meet appropriations unpaid, amounting to $84,111 38; leaving the sum of $28,151 80, as a balance in the Treasury after paying all the appropriations for 1857. An abstract from the books of this . office accompanies this report, as re quired by an act of the 23d of Decem- I her, 1839, setting forth the amounts of the general appropriations, both com mon and special, nuder their respective heads : The dates and amounts of warrants approved: In whose favor drawn ; and.

I still the receipts into the Treasury (not I including tlie proceeds from the sale of; j State Bonds) from all sources, except | the Western & Atlantic Railroad have | been $22,037 60 less than they were in 11857. The reason for this is : Ist, mostl lof the old tax claims that were worth ;anything, were collected last year; and,, j 2udly, there was received in 1858, sll,- j 332 ’6B, less from the general_ tax of 1 1857, than was received in 1857 from j the general tax of 1856. The increasal '! receipts from the Western and Atlantic : Railroad being tills year $91,500 more J than that of last year. The payment j into the Treasury iu 1857 from the road ; being SIOB,OOO. | It will therefore be seen that, but for i the monthly incomes into the State j Treasury this year, from the net earn | ings of the Western and Atlantic Rail : road, the State could not have met the | ordinary expenses of government, re ' duced the public debt, and paid tlie in : icrest on the same as it became due, ; and met the large appropriations of the last Legislature to the Lunatic Asylum, I Academy for the Blind, Medical Colle- Iges, &c., &c., as they have been called ; for, without temporarily borrowing [ money for this purpose. As it is, all demands have promptly met, and there lis an abundant surplus—and with the taxes for 1858 now coining iu, and with | further anticipated receipts from the j j railroad, this surplus will continue to] j increase from day to day. ] There is still due to the Atlantic and | Gulf Railroad company the smn of | $400,000; (and the State is bound for a ] further subscription of $500,000, when : the private stockholders raise an addi tional $600,000 ;) but the Act making ) the State’s subscription to this work, j provided also for the issue of State six j per cent, bonds, payable at tlie ex pirn ; tion of twenty years, iu the event of j there not being money iu the Treasury jto meet the installments as they are | called for ; consequently, this subscrip j tion bus been charged to the Treasury | only as the bonds have been issued and | sold to the company. , Having thus dwelt upon and exhibi ted the operations of our State govern , ment, financially, for the past twelve I months I will now turn with greater . pleasure to the future ensuing fiscal ) year, as it exhibits the financial’ affairs , of Geoigia in a still more flourishing , and flattering condition, i With almost nominal State tax, ti • being but three fourths of a million the dol ;! tar, or seventy fire cents on the one thousand | dollars, on all property in Georgia—ex ; j cept bank and railroad capital—we shall j , i taise for the ensuing fiscal year at least | $375,000. Juding from the past eight ■ j months, and if the Superintendent of the Western and Atlantic Railroad be ; j not greatly mistaken, said road will pay . into the State treasury, as net earnings,: jat least $300,000 annually. Add to] f I this the bank tax of $81,120 11 ; the . j dividends from bank stock. $29,575 00:, , [ the tax on railroads $6,204 94 ; and i, from miscellaneous items, $5,775 88,' r | and we will have an income of $747,675 f \ 88. While on the other hand, it is not !at all probable that the extraordinary i appropriations for 1859, will be as large! lj as they were this year by $150,000. - The Lunatic Asylum, Academy for the ; i Blind, Georgia Military Institute, and 1 i Medical Colleges of Savannah and At > lanta, having beeij provided for, to a r liberal extent, it is not supposed that s ranch more, if any, will be asked for to ! complete their buildings, &c., &c. This being the case, it will be seen that there will he a large surplus at the en>! of the year, t-> be applied to l;:e K'fiv.:- tioa of‘the Public l-übt, to Education, jor to any other purpose the represen tatives of the people may think proper. , Assuming, then, that the ordinary ■ receipt", into tie Troasuiy fur the tic al year, i ■'•jit. " ill he as follows, viz: From General Tax, $375,000 00 | Net earnings of tire W. & j 1 A. Railroad, 000,000 00 • Bank Tax, 61.120 11 ' Bank dividends, 2!'.075 00 ! Railroad tax, 6,201 04 ; Miscellaneous items, 5,775 68 j Balance after paying Ap j propriations for T 20,224 22 j And we have total, $707,000 10 | The demand upon the Treasury for ] the same year, will approximate as fol i lows, viz: jTo pay members of the j Legislature, sloo,o*o 00 To pay Civil Establish- I ment, 1859, 70,000 00 To pay Contingent Fund, 1859, 14,000 00 iTo pay Printing Fund, 1859, 24,000 00 To pav Poor School Fund, 1858, 29,575 00 To pay Reduction of Fub ! lie Debt, 45,000 00 To pay Interest on Public 1 Debt, 170,000 00 To support of pauper pa tients, Lunatic Asylum, 15,000 00 ‘To salary of Superinteu ’ dant.

Except the bonds issued, (bearing 7 per cent.) to pay the liabilities of the: 1 Central Bank, amounting in all now to; ■ $241,000, and which are annually fall-; : ing due in comparatively small sums, ; there will be no State bonds <hie sooner : ' than 1862. There are, however, $289,- j ' 500 of State bonds issued in 1848. for : the benefit of the railroad, and not due i until 1863 and 1868, but the State in ( , issuing them having reserved to itself , ; the right to redeem them and stop intered ; ' at any time after ten years, these bonds' .'can now be redeemed at any time the. .State choses to do so. There are also j, | $200,000 7 per cent, bonds issued in 1852, to pay for railroad iron $ 100,000 ; are due in ISG2, and the State also re- j ! served to its'df the right to redeem the 8200.000 in 1862, if it desired to do so. 77,/- I’uUir Debt. So far as I can discover from the! Treasurer’s report and, the various Acts: of the Legislature, the Public Debt, in bonds, now amounts to $2,631,500, i which will be increased to $3,530,500, (uulessbefore reduced) when the remain-; ‘ der (900,000) of the bonds for the sub- ; scription to the Atlantic and Gulf Rail- - , road are issued. The following will', show the character and the amounts of 4 the various bonds, and when due, viz :j - Due in 1850, 7 per cent. Cen tral Bank bonds, 845,000 '• Due in 1800, 7 per cent.

Carolina, upon lands in cities, towns, villages, I boroughs, xc, the tax is I‘2>4 cents on tbesloo,; * and upon other lands it is 6u cents on the SIOO, j < and laves pay 70 cents per head.
