SPRINGER'S SPEECH, fe This day wo publish Mr, SrRlNnxR’s speech, ot mb late Reduction Convention. That qenth mnn waa looked on ea the champion of the Free White Baai«. We will ohrotve heto, however, that we do not coincide witlt Mr. S., In his view* on this queation; becau-t! wo do not think that the preaent it a proper time to interfere with the Federal Ha ifa of representation. Mr. Spmnokr is un nhte, amtnd thinking man, nnd a tree Republican. Tito woak attempt of the enemy to mnko light of him, by forging n apuriou* •peech, will only recoil on in inventors. Ilia aor- vicea to hi* Siuto will be remumbered, wtion inch " antnll beer wit" ia deapiu'd or forgotten. The a|H-ech la lengthy, nnd eyowtU out much other mai ler. It will appear in our daily, tri-weekly, and weekly pnpera. • THE GOVERNOR'S HEALTH. We ore happy to loam through the Southern Recorder, that Gov. Gii.mkk ia now convolcaccnt. He la yet too weak, however, to enjoy of the cottvor Mtion of his friends, or to leave his room. Ho is ■aid, though, to bo completely out of duugcr. (CT While we have to congratulate our citizens) on not a Mingle accident occurring to mur thu festi vities of the Fourth, in our own city, wo regret to hear, on the authority of the Darien Herald, that a cunnoit exploded on that day at Rittehoro’, nnd “in jured several individuals." tlnguithed men, who once belonged to the demo, cretin family, have undergone the humiliating oper ation—«• have many of minor note. Henry Cur, is a living instance of its desolating—Its enervating effect*. Before he joined the Federal ranks, hia thrilling eloquence—hia manly voice, waa heard for the benefit of hi* whole country. His ap|ieaL were made, and mad* effectually, lor the preservation of that inheritance unimpaired, which was bequeathed ua by our patriot sires. Then, ho wits a Democrat, and advocated the largest liberty of the greater num ber. Now, ho ia a Federalist, and goes for hia party alone. The good of hia party ia superior wiih him to tho good of hia country, because on I ho shoulders of tlmt party ho expects to mount to the highest of fice in the Nation t which, if ho obtains, ho w ill uao for the benefit of that party. Tho Federal-Whig motto ia, “ Everything for Party—Nothing for Country." Fodninlisin, like tho linncfnl Upas, destroys every vestige of patriot ism—of love of co'intiy—In thu breasts of those who enter within her precincts—and leave them nothing but u dried up ami withuicd skeleton—u thing of mure party. Georgians will never permit tlielr soil, ronserrnt- ed, ns it has In-on, to Liberty, by the blood of free men, to Iro p lluied by thn footsteps •tf^KUKRALU.M. Her nir is too pure to be impregnated with auch foul ness*. 'Her hiDa)l doinnin ha* no spot so bat ren os to If- meet for its biding. Should tho tree of FxnKUAUsM ho planted in Goorgiu, it will lie turn up hy thu routs, and cast into thu sen. Not all tho wealth of tho I miles—aor all tho force of nil urmy of mercenaries, us countless ns the myriads of the Persian, could bind tiic pen- pio of Georgia to the Federal enr which would roll Henry Clay in triumph to thu Capitol. ThadJca* Street, E«q., was on Wednesday last, unanimously re-eft'ctod President of the Charleston Insurance & Trust Company. Mr. Van BoniCN was to have visited Brooklyn* Q n thu O h. His reception, it is said, would be mestcnthusiasliu. ^ HEALTH OF SAVANNAH. We are pleased to assure our ab*«*nt renders that Savannah continues very healthy. Tlieru'hnvo been no white interments for thn week ending Olh Inst., and the Ward Committees yesterday reported very favourably, there not being a case of fever noticed by them. When we consider tho frequent heavy showers wo havo recently had in tho city, and that the 4th of July has just passed, when it is presumed the social glass is more generally indulged, we have every reason In congratulate ourselves, ns to our present healthy condition Last month (June) there were hut eleven white interments, and three of those thu result of casual ties. Lot our city officers continue to bo prompt in draining our streets, the sandy soil of which is so conducive to henltli, and we have no reason, but with the b'esslng of Providence, to expect through the season, our usual exemption from summer di seases. provided tho imprudent will abstain from green fruit, and tho young not indulge immoderately in bathing. [IJ* Wo regret to learn that Mr. Micimkl Kino, of McIntosh county, received th6contentsufthegun of Mr. Cartxr, of the same county, in his body, .while they wore hunting on Saturday last. It ■eems a doer passed them, when both fired, nnd the result was as we have stuted. Mr. Kino, wp are happy to learn, Is not iu great danger. Tho New Orleans papers state that Mr. Vincent Nyltr., the great speculator, who was under nrrost at that place, was recently set at liberty by tho Court, on tho ground that tho Citizens' Bunk, to which tho claims against him had been assigned, did nut provide for his maintenance in prison. Mr. Nolte left New Orleans next day for Louisvillo. ^ DEMOCRACY u«. FEDERALISM. Democracy Is the nearest possible approach to Freedom, under thu salutary restraint of wholesome laws. Iu motto ia “ Liberty, Law, Order.’' Fkdkralissi is tlm nearest po-aiblc npprnnch y monarchy, under the guise of u Republic. Thus, tho Fodorslista'would restrain the Liberty of the Press—institute n vnst monopoly in the shape of a Bank —give it peculiar privileges, like the Bunk of England, or tho British F. ist India Company—and thtw pave tho way to arbitrary power, by making tho commercial class, nnd tho whole hulk of the population, det>endent on it. for tho regulation of the currency—for depreciating or raising the value of money—that is, federal money, alia* pnper rags, FEDERALISM would ulso prolong tho Presidential term, and give us a Senate for life. Tho “ Great Regulator," has always been a favorite hobby with the Federalists, from the days of Alexander Ham. ilton downwards. Mr. JxrrKRSO.v, tho great op ponent of federal doctrines in every shape and foim, triumphed over the Federalists in their most palmy days, nnd tho pnnplo have been aide to keep them in check ever since—excepting during the short period of John Qoincy Adams’s Administration, when they had power for a brief season. Tne Fed eralists would require vot rs to possess a properly qualification, hoforo they should exercise tho elec tive franchise. They would also enncl new natu -VTilirntion laws, ami thereby retard emigration, which is one of tho main nrtcries of our grent coun- try’a prosperity. Federalism would tend to con solidation, and consolidation is foreign to the spirit and letter of tho Constitution, and destructive of the principles of our free government, which is a union of sovereign nnd independent States, formed on the broad ground of mutual concession, for the good of tho whole. Federalism would uudrrtake tobsua edicts, and pa*a laWa at tho seat of tho General - Govfpment, that should, however unconstitutional, he binding nn tho-various States, which form tho coifedersey. It would thereby assert the power to interfere, (indirectly, if it pleased,) with our domes tic institutions. Fkderaliim is til that we have said, and more. We have placed its mildest features before our readers. What think they of it l Democracy has been so fully and fairly repra- '■^s anted under tho administrations of Jureemon, Ma dison, and J ACKSt<N, and, so far, during the present administration, as io become engraven on tho hearts of tho American people, and it has identified itself so much with thu public wool, os to Ini able to stand the most powerful shocks of tho ircmoudous battery brought to bear against it by that monstrous engine of the Federalists,—the United States Bank. Pure Democracy has her homo in tho heart* of her votaries. They love her,-because she is chaste at beautiful—dignified without pride—wise, y«t devoid of gttile or cunning, and benevolent with out sb«w or ostentation. Thrice happy are those sha smiles no—and blessed is the land she has made bar abode. # ?tor %k usm exists In the heads of a few design- fig politicians, who bars long been endeavoring to fMMdato the people of thf free county, with iu pamfloodal »inn. They havo succeeded ia their wishes, bol la a limited extent It is tree some dis- UNFAIR DEA LING.-GOV. TROUP. Tho presses of thn par y opposed to tho Adminis tration, in Georgia, with uno honom'ito exception, resort, at times, to tho most unfair and disingenu ous modes of carrying their projects into effect— nnd they do so.by menus which ctinu#bo justified All is suid to bo “ fair In war,” but this maxim only applies to pnrtict when the belligerents nro foreigners. Could the party wo belong to, lie actu- nted by snch principles—In which amor pat rite bus no existence—they might carry tho “ war into Africa," and slay them with a vengeance. Tho Machiavellian role, lum-cvc, for nil wo can sny, will continuo to Influence these prints, nnd we cun only rely on Truth, to dofout their machinations. But unerring Truth is powerful, and under its streaming banner, wo havo fought and conquered ern now, and wo will do so again. Among tho tunny resources of thn nnomy, tholr schemes to defeat the rc-eb r.iioR of Mr. Van Bit- rk.v, are the most distinguished for foul play.— They do not dare to como out opmlr for Mr. Clay, although tome of them have docrara l tholr prefer* ence for him of nil tho candidate* near in the field. They do not dare to hoist tho name of General II a orison, ns no Georgian would listen to it They nro thou placed in a dilemma, and resort to tho old gome of throwing away the vote of the Stair. Tho people of Georgia, however, havo n word to say on tho subject; and if wo know them right, no insolent clique shall dictate to thorn. Tho honored name of George M. Troup, has been inscribed on the columns of two or three pa per* in tho Stntc. -Tho Southern Recorder has hnd tho unenviable distinction of endeavoring to impfl-o on It* party by the tree of vital name. It l« well known that Gov. Troup Im* for many years retired from the turmoil of public life—that lie has studiously avoided mingling in tho pnrty qunrroL of tho day. No earthly inducement could, wo sincerely Ix-lieve, draw him from tint retire ment ; much less, could ho ho penuadnd to stand forward at tho chumpfon of a party, which, at tho prosont duy, huvo no feeling In common with him —and only to ho set up as a man of straw for their purpose, to defeat tho present incumbent. Wo believe the papers which have used the nnmo of Gov. Troup havo done so without hi* knowlt dge or content. Therefore, this venerable patriot is not accountable for their nets. Wo also believe, that the sama papers are op posed to tho Administration of Mr. Van Burnett and nro nut willing to giva hint credit for ono good net, during Ids presidential term. Wo have it from those in tho confidence of Gov. TitoUP, that ho lias seen tio net of Mr. Van Buren’s, since his acces sion to his present office, iu which ho does not con cur—nod wo also have it from thn snine source, that he is well satisfied with Mr. Van Buren’s declarations, nnd course, on the. tubjeel of Slavery, in particular. Wo further believe that the papers before alluded to, ore oppotrd to the Sub Treat it ry. Wc have heard it stated by the sntnn honorable and unimpeuchnbln nuthorily, that Geokgk M. Troup is in tavor op a Sub Treasury, ns tho only safe depository of tho public moneys—and so confident nro wc tbnt we arc correctly informed, that nothing hut a denial of these opinions, mi the part of that gentleman himself, would satisfy its of our error. How, then, can tho Recorder, and its brethren use the name of such a man—of one who holds none of their doctrines—who is opposed to nearly nil their present opinions T By what authority, may wc nsk, Inve they used the name of Gov. Troup t Have they indeed *• little respect for that venerated nnmo ns to drag it before the public, to aid their owft petty party ma noeuvres t The only authority they have is thoir own very irresponsible net—their own desire to throw away the vote of Georgia—nnd to acrompllsh that end, they would desecrate tho highest name on the annals of fame—even that of Gcorse Wash ington himself. Wo protest against tills proceeding—it is foreign to every principle of fair nnd upright drnling It is unworthy of any party. We hold the true princi ples of Gov. Troup, ns dear as any other party, or individual, can hold them. When “Troup and the Treaty!" was the rallying cry, wo wore with hint; and wc arc with him now! Wo aro not ungrnt ful. Wo value his services ot that period as beyond price. Wo have ever considered him a republican, although wo differed with him iu'somo measure*. And it is bemuse wo are proud of him as a Georgian, that wo decry those who would use his unsullied name for an unworthy purjwue.— They cannot elect him! They would not, if they could ! Do they, then, suppose that ho will suffer himself to be used by them ? If they do, they do not krmw the man—h« would spurn their advances, nnd cnntatpn thoir hoffbw support. The game of President-making has been tried— tho ganto of PreriJen,-defeating has l*ecn tried once, but it foil through—und it will fall through again. German M. Troup and Hugh L. White are two very different men. Governor Troup it not to be caught by the same arts that entrapped Judge White. Yet tho Georgia “Whigs" cannot pro- miso themsulves a single State—excepting their own—for the Governor. To an inflexible firmness, Gov. Troup joins a clearness of tnind und a sound ne>s of judgment that enables him to see his own way, and mako his own decision, without the spec tacles that Judge Whitx used, or the mouth-pieces tint undertook to speak for him. We tell the Recorder that ha Is playing a gamo that ho will regret—he has mado a false move on the chess-board—his weakne-s is apparent—and fortune is against him. Ho has been too bold— Georoe M. Troup U not the mao to suffer himself to be made a cat’s paw of by every polit cal empy- ric We tell him to BEWARE. Nor Bad.—A Southern paper say* that the ex ploring Espediiioo have discovered the laired of Madeira J - Notse bad* discover/, If there was aoarise in the leaker! THE CENTRAL AND OTHER RAILROADS. While many of the schemes of Intetnal Improve ment, throughout the Uttlon, ora confessedly tolling to the ground, or have already perished, it U cheer- lag for Georgia, to turn to her great work, the Cen tral Railroad, and have the satisfaction to know that it ha* progressed beyond all comparison. No work of the kind ever was attempted, with out doubts and misgivings on the part of some ex ceedingly wise persons—who always know mom than their neighbors—especially If they are so ex tremely disinterested, ns not to embark a dollar in the enterprise. Tiieit, of courso, their words are cheap, and they can speak with freedom. These kind of people, like othar folks, Imvo gtmerally two eyes—but ono of them is nn cnvloua ono, and with it thoy can tee nothing profitable or patriotic in which they are not thcmiclvca immediately con- ccrnod. “Croakers" urn proverbial, ntnl sensible men treat them at Benjamin Franklin did, When old RttADront) endeavored to dissuade him from cotnmrticing tho printing business in Philadelphia. The “Croaker*".of the Central Railroad project, however, having seen all tho difficulties thoy prog nosticated vanish before time, aro nowhere to bo found—or have abandoned their vocation. ( Tho Central Railroad is now in operation up wards of BO miles. It I- daily shortening the dis tance between this city and our flourishing si ior of the interior—Macon. Tho day is not far distant when a few hours travel will make us one pcoplo. Macon must over ho un entrepot for tho Cotton of the interior of Georgia | hut there nro other com modities not so bulky ni tbnt vuluablo material, to which we must soon look to tho upper regions of Georgia for n supply. It is « fact tlmt moro grain has been raised in this Stntc lust seuson, than was over produced in Georgin before. In sotno of the niidluud counties, wo understaud tlmt fine flour can be hutl at litre rate of $3 00 per cwl. ut tho mills— superfine ut $3 50. Tills Spring the farmers in the l'p Country have gone larger iu'.o the cultivation of grain, than they did but—so that we hope to see tho dny when the Savnimuh murker will bo entirely supplied with Georgia flour. Cura mul Bacon, these "rails of lifo," will also find their way hero—und Butter und Cheese. Really, wo should bo nslmmvd of ourselves, ns Gu.irgiutts, to have slept au long, mid paid so heavy u tux for what we could havo raised ourselves—but, moreover, for permitting tho vast nuturul advan tage* of our State to remain without assistance, nnd without application. But the ico is now fairly bro ken, ami lint stream of Internal Improvement lias overflowed und carried with it all harriers—never more to be blocked up by (lie chilly uml freezing nir of neglect. Let it roll on, until it has fertilized tint woodland and tho plain f Lut tho mighty lido never cense to flow, until Georgia takes her stutioit am ingtl her sisters of tho Union—and bolds her beauteous head as high us the proudest! Let us contetnp'aie for u moment the scene thru muy In* when the Central Railroad is completed to Macon—when it reaches, by means of the inter section ut \\ uyne.-koro’, Augusta. Then will Suv- ummh, the scuhnurd of lliu Suite, have at leant a fair chatica of becoming what «Ua should he, tho otnporiutn of thu South. The merchants of Macon nnd Augusta can vis t our city in ono diy, nnd re turn to their homes the next. Tho trains of cars laden with llio produce of Georgia, t from tlio cities we have unnicd, will glide along out Rond, and bo transported to our stoiehoit-es or wharves, in a few It lira. Hundreds who Would never leave liotnn, when the journey would ho two or three weeks ill duration, will lay aside for a day, their cares, mul visit tho largo cities of their native or chosen State, to seo nnd he seen, mid to become acquainted with their fellow-citizens, who reside in oilier places Our cities will ini thronged—our people will ho employed, nnd industry nnd enterprise will obtain n ■certain reward. Other improvements will he made throughout tho country, cspucinliy in the neighbourhood of tho Railroad or its branches. The people in those quarters will wnko up, and cntcli the spir t of improvement as it flies along. Wo will bo u prophet for onco, nnd niigur that tlio people of Georgia will bless the day, when thn pro ject of tho Central Railroad was fir-t started—and posterity will honor and revere its author*. Our renders will sue that a small prolir'is derived already from the Stock, before tho work is half com pleted. *A dividend of onn dollar per shorn Ims been declared by tlio Company from the profit of tho Railroad. It is not, however, the above project alone, that will enrich our State. The Georgia ilailroud Com pany, an ub*tract from the Engineer’s Report of which wo gnvo tlio other duy, is in a most flourish ing condition It will sonn be completed, und will pay it* Stockholders well, und he u vast benefit to Georgia. Tito Monroe Railroad, too, is doing well. We believo it has fully come up to tho expectations of its projectors; and thu connexion of Mucon and Forsyth, effected Ity this Road, is ail import- an , to keep up thn cliuin of Railroads, front tho son- Luurd to thu mountains. Toe Great State road from tlio Tennessee, is also in a proper train. We append tho last Report of the Bourd, which it will be seen, is very flutter ing. Having tints mado a brief sketch of tin* present and future) prospect* of Georgia, connected with In ternal Improv. niont, we may u*k, will tho uuxi Legislature bo propured to enter into tho spirit of tlio day T Will it lend the credit of tho Sidle tu work* that have proved beyond all doubt, their prac ticability—their advantage? Time alone cun de termine thl* question—but tho woul or woe of Geor gia, is, as yet. iu tho bunds of tho people. *1 hoy have tho selection. Let them moke a good ono. No man is worthy of the stution of a rcprc.cnt- ntivo of the people, who will ollow sectional or un worthy fadings, to interfere with his duty at a Legislator. Let tho Citizens of Georgia, see whe ther they hnve sent such men to thn General As sembly before, nnd if they havo, lot them make amends, by scouting their pretensions now. Cer tain it is, that sc< tior.nl prejudice Its* operated to such aa extent in former Legislatures a* to stay tho tide of improvement—nay, to divert it from its course—and keep It so for years. Tho men who lent themselves to th's proceeding, have a great to answer for. Thoy havo done a deop injury to their Stuto—many of them, no doubt, without being aware of it—but tho evil is not tho less. Men of souud common .sense— of integrity—of sufficient discrimination to know that fine flowery speeches, and pluuwblo exteriors, are not tlio only attributes of patriotism—who possesses a good practical knowledge • f the every day affairs of life, together with an education, plain but fair, which can detect the designs of demagogues, and blow to pieces the webs of sophis.ry—aro the men to make Legislators. Give u* such men as these, and we will warrant that they oro advocates for Internal Improvement, —that they go with tho age, and oro not behind it —that thoy will spin no long-winded harangues and while away the time of the Assembly, preach ing economy—of tho great expenditure* of the State —of it# empty coffers— while all tho time they are pocketing tlieir Jive dollarF'R day, and remain in Alillrdgeville,'/f os times as long is it is necessary— for no other purpoir, we presume, than to continue the agreeable task of pocketing the aforesaid fee dollars * day—and exhibiting their talent for speech- making. > We havo made these remarks, because we see that many c-umiiee of the inferior aro about to make their nominations of candidates, end we hope they will have tome efibet. The policy of Georgia, above all others, at this in;, is to encourage Inter- nelltnprovomonte—sensibly und usefully conducted. Let the people of this State do their duty, end Georgia will assuredly become the highway for tho Commerce of tho Mighty Wo* Ut not party •plrtt taetfore with this vital fWHttowt fi* we hope that both parties will, as in d«ty bound, choose men pledged to Internal impi COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE, WESTERN AND _ ATLANTIC RAIL ROAD.
