Savannah Internal Improvements. We take lire following extracts front a letter dated “Soutli Western Georgia, Jan. 24,” which appears in the New York Express: Great confidence seems to be felt in whatever Georgia lays her hand to. I have often heard it wondered how the citizens of Georgia had succeeded so in building railroads, keeping out ; of debt, and making their roads pav well. Great caution and prudence were observed in requiring a good liberal bona fide subscription | before starting, rather than relying on “finan- j t iering,’’ or selling bonds of the company at a j ruinous discount; and then the most watchful i economy in the expenditures of the money ; I this characterized the early beginning and pro- j gress of Georgia railroads, Such tilings are not perhaps generally looked I for “down South,” but it lias been trim of the] past, contrary practice even now, with the Cali- • imuia and \ustralian mines showering gold, ; would be one more honored iti the breach titan the observance. The first great private enterprise, the building ol'tlie Central Road. 190 miles long, was com menced in 1831 when the times were hard and money scarce. Vt the time of its completion, it was the longest single road in the I nited i .States ; it has been a sort of model or example j for others. The prrsom lof this road had much ! to do with its success. As exhibiting this .and showing with what caution and economy he j proceeded, 1 may state that William Vv. (tor- ; don, Esq., a distinguished member of the Savan- j nab bar, at tho time a member of the State Sen ate possessing largely the public confidence, n most practical thorough-going man, was elec ted President. Mr. Gordon applied to a gen- J tleman of high reputation at the North, as Civil ] Engineer, to survey and locate the road : his salary 1 think, was to he 8(1000 a year. He j came, and very unexpectedly brought with him ! some twenty assistant engineers. Harnessing ! six mules to a carriage, with his champagne baskets up behind, he proceeded to place some i half dozen corps in the field. The cautious j and astute President looked on in utter constern- j ation, and finally said to him, “Sir, you have j mistaken us entirely, wo are poor, we look to! our subscribers through the country to do the f grading, or to contribute the means for it, they ] may be able, while \vc hope to raise as much : money from tho citizens of Savannah as will j enable us to buy the iron, and erect the super- j structure; hut we cannot afford the expense of! your numerous corps of engineers for a single; year,” The result was that they were paid otf, 1 the matter satisfactorily arranged, and they left i the work. Among the assistant engineers was F. P. Hoi- j comb, ayoung man barely at majority, hut with j considerable experience, and had attracted the attention of Mr. Gordon, nnd .Mr. L. O. Rey nolds, the latter now the able and efficient Pres ident of the South Western road, it was arrang ed that Mr. Rey nolds should take the chiefship, and he gave to Mr. Holcomb the location of the road. Upwards of four years were occupied by ] him with his single small corps in this survey,] the road passing through a country of difficult j topography, a great part of it a wilderness, and j intersected by immense swamps, the corpse liv- ; ing in their tents summer and winter, sleeping ] on their blankets in the absence of mattresses ] and tho annual expense of the whole engaged | probably equaling the salary of the former ; Chief Engineer. 1 may remark, as showing the I good judgment of Messrs. Gordon and Reynolds, I that from the admirable location Mr. Holcomb was universally conceded to have made of this | toad, he was recommended by tho Chevalier Bodisco, the Russian Minister, to his govern-: ment, as an engineer of high capacity arid es- j tablished reputation. Mr. H. did not go to ; Russia, but has since located the Sonth-Wes- ] tern, the Columbus branch, the Waynesboro* j and Augusta, and is now engaged with his corps ] in a preliminary survey of the Savannah and i Pensacola road: These roads all have connec j 1 tion with the Central, in most of them it is direc tly interested; their length when completed, including the Central will be somo 700 miles. Among the early employers of tho Central Railroad, iu a very subordinate capacity, was W.M Wodley, whose talents and great business ] ! energies were discovered, and who became su perintendent of the road, managing it and its great freight business with an efficiency and success unsurpassed. He is now managing the State Road, under an Executive appoint ment from Gov. Cobb ; the poor mechanic hoy I may now be said to be the “Railroad King” of Georgia. He is the same gentleman to whom your citizen G. B. Lamar, Esq., recently ad dressed a letter through the public press, as the prominent internal improvement man of this State, on the subject of the calorio engine. Mr. Gordon, who died before the completion of this road, and to whoso memory Savannah should erect a statute, since he started her for a growth and commercial importance that will be unrivalled in the South, was succeeded by R. R. Cuyler, Esq., who, to fine financial talents, joins that of industry, order care and attention to busiuess, so necessary in a good executive officer. The annual receipts of the road under • his administration have reached one million of j i dollars : tho stockholders are receiving eight ] per cent, dividend, with a handsome surplus or, hand—the stock being above par, the road out j ■ of debt, and its receipts annually increasing.-- ] ■ The system of check and accountability is the j 1 most perfect I have ever seen, full reports in writing being required of each conductor of | every day’s operations. j So much for the personel, and 1 have dwelt! tho more upon this subject because it has, pro- j bably, generally as much to do with tho success j of railroad enterprise as the character and ca- i ■ pacify of the general and officers of an army j j have to do with the success of military cam- j j paigtts. The Savannah toad starts under favorable i auspices. Dr. Screven, a man of large wealth, ; a citizen ofSavnntiah, is devoting his fortune to : the great enterprise, and he is strongly eo-opera j ted with by the merchants and others of Savan ; tiah, and a large amount of stock has already ! been subscribed. But the immediate destina ! tion should he Pensacola, then while greatly i benefiting Georgia and Florida, it will partake I in the objects it will accomplish of that national ! character that will make it one of interest to the ! whole country Charleston—ll; V. t* Willis. We copy from that most readable of newspa pers, the Home Journal, a brief sketch of j j Charleston, by Mr. VV ilhs, one of its Editors, j | during a Southern tour for the benefit of his i ! health. Though shadowy and incomplete, it | ; displays a ready appreciation of our distinguish- | } ing characteristics, and we can but express a ! ! hope that, under happier auspices, he may kero- j I after have ampler opportunity for the exercise i ] of his rare talent of word-painting, iu which tie j ; is unequalled, in giving a more elaborate picture | of our Ocean City. The extracts at the close of the article are i most appropriate and inciting to the efforts now | making by our citizens to relieve themselves from ; the obloquy of neglect and indifference to tiie j memory of the Great Statesman, whose remains j have been entrusted to them : With a presentiment (afterwards confirmed) j | that, by going too early North, 1 was leaving j ! what little convalescence I had picked up in a ] j warmer clime, 1 embarked for Charleston, on the j | evening of the sth of May—arriving the next ! ] morning, after a rough, cold and thoroughly tin- . j comfortable passage. Quite prostrated by sea | sickness and influenza, and having more desired j I to see Charleston than any other point of my ‘ winter’s travel, I had never found illness more j untimely. We rejoined, here, some of our fel- ; I low voyagers in the Tropics, but the most ad ] mired and beloved of that happy company lay i dying under the same roof with us, and a mel ] aucholy sadness weighed upon all who had known her. Altogether, I obtained hut an im- j perfect and clouded view of the great metropolis j of the South. My best remembrances of it were j such as do not come within a traveller’s chrom- j cle; the meeting with valued friends and ac- i quaintances. it must pass for the broken page ] 1 of my Journal, to he rewritten, if possible, with better knowledge hereafter. In what little I saw of Charleston, in my | inopings about, 1 was impressed with tne air it i wears of a town built for gentlemen, ft is a lit- j ; tie behindhand with paint and repairs, but, iu the ‘ ; contrivance and character of its private resided- ; ces, there is the original imprint, still legible, of ; first owners who built exclusively, each one, for ; taste and comfort of his own. There is none of the amputated look given to city buildings by ] the more utilitarian taste of the North. Even in houses of very moderate pre'ensions, it was j ; quite evident that the plan had not been sent i : back to the architect, shaved of all its superflui- I i ties of elegance merely. In tho bay windows, i j verandahs, odd angles, porticos and gardens, J j and in the unstereotyped variety with which the caprices of ornament had been combined, the j i look of refinement quite at its ease and appre ! hensive of neither eclipse nor criticism, is very 1 manifest. Every house looks as if the same fam ( ily had always lived in it. Without strict archi j tectural taste, this atmosphere of household gods j may'be made to envelope a home with an indi- ; j viduality more attaching to children and more j I inspiring of respect; and i must own that, to j j my eye, it is an innovation upon art worth stu- i ! dying in the days when the North anil South were I more intimate—the gay society of the two lati- ; j tudes holding an equally divided empire over j | Baliston and Saratoga—Charleston was the un- : i questionable Corinth, fiotn which came the best j models of gentlemen and ladies. With the plan- | tation conservatism of family—custom of send- ] ing sons to Europe for education — general hah- j it of yearly travel, and prevailing tone of courte- : sv and chivalry handed down from a superior i class of first inhabitants—this may easily he j I accounted for. The marks of it would still im- j I press a stranger in walking the streets ol Charles- I ton or looking in upon its society. Shouldered j | aside as the city is, somewhat, perhaps, by the j : current of “progress,” and becalmed in the still ] | water of such respectability and dignity as this I j “fast” age will leave behind, its gayeties proba ’ bly assemble, at the present time, a higher-bred ; i class of men and women than any other capital ]of our country. The epidemic rage, for action j j and contact with the world, which is setting the ; ! noblemen of England to lecturing,will soon reach : | here, doubtless, and lively-IV Charleston up to | j the dreg-stirring activity oi New “link; hut, | j meantime, its streets are walked by gentlemen | who look tranquilly noble, and its drives are | graced by ladies who si’in their carriages with | the air of princesses at leisure, j There is a childish disappointment, (which i j do not find that I outgrow,) in tho first visit to I most large capitals. Until one sees a famous ! place, its great men form a conspicuous part of j the ideal picture of it. A hoy, in going for the i first time to Boston, for instance, would feel an ] unexplainable disappointment not to seo Web j ster with at least a dome and cupola ; Prescott ] with a Gothic arch to him; Emerson with a j ; steeple, and Everett with a colonnade all round —or some equally tangible, visible and imposing- j ly architectural proof that this is the Boston of ] which, as seen from a distance, those men com- j pose so largo a part. I had always thought ot Charleston, South Carolina, as a city built not so much of brick as of Calhoun—not so beauti ful for its public walks as for its Washington i Alston. To arrive there, and walk through it, and drive round it, without seeing any thing of them—no sign of the statesman and painter who would still show for Charleston, though the city were sunk by an earthquake—was and is “less of a place” than l had expected—to take out the glory from the picture and put in brick, it is to tliis feeling (among others) that cities owe monuments for their great men. Willing to pay for gas, they should be willing to pay also for the “nobulous aurora” of genius which, shin ing from there, lights them up so that they are seen the world over. The Dutch have an Invention for helping a | vessel when she is aground ; placing buoyant ] floats on each side of her, sinking them till they can run a timber through, and then removing j the weight so that all rises together. Corrobo j rativo quotation is sometimes necessary to do a j similar service and bring a writer safely into port. In the present state of low water in the ! river of poetry, I have probably run aground in i the passage just written, and will, therefore, ! make sure of a buoyant conclusion, by applying | a float or two in the way of confirmatory re i marks by greater authors, on the same sub ] jecu ■ “Fontenelle was never more gratified than ] when a Swede, arriving at the gates of Paris, inquired of the custom house officer where Fon ] tenelle resided, and expressed his indignation i that not one of them had over heard of his name.” \ distinguished man, in a eulogy on Liebnitz, said, “The Elector of Hanover united undei his dominion an Electorate, the three Kingdoms of Great Britain, and Liebnitz and Newton.” “Spinoza, when he gained an humble liveli hood by grinding optical glasses, was visited by the first General in Europe, who, for the sake j ol this philosophical conference, suspended the ; march of the army.” “A solemn funeral honored the remains of j the poet Klopstock, led by the Senate of Ham burg, with fifty thousand votaries, so penetrated : by one universal sentiment, that this multitude ; preserved a mournful silence, and the interfer ence ot tho police ceased lo lie necessary through the city, at the solemn burial of the man j of genius.” “In Ferrara, the small house which Arior-to ] I built was purchased, to be preserved, by the i | municipality, and there they still show the poet’s j study ; and, under his bust, a simple hut affecting : i tribute to genius records, that Ludovico Ariosto i in litis apartment wrote.” “Travellers never fail to mention Erasmus ; I when the city of Basle occupies their recollec- j ] tions, so that, as Bayle remarks, ‘he rendered! the place of his death its celebrated as that of I I his birth !’ ’’ “The Grand Duke of Tuscany became jealous ! of the attention paid to Magiiabecchi, as stran- ! gers usually went to visit Magiiabecchi before i | the Grand Duke.” “We cannot bury the fame of our English worthies—that exists before us, independent of ourselves; but wo bury the influence of their inspiring presence in those immortal memorials of genius easy to be read by all men—their statues nnd their busts, consigning them to spots seldom visited, and often too obscure to be viewed.” l'rm the Maeon Messenger. Trial ofthe Rohlicrsof John Jackson. Forsyth, March 14th, 185. T Messrs. Editors :—The Superior Court of Mon roe county has been in session for two weeks past, and as it has been occupied almost the whole of the time in the trial of some of the men who were concerned in the robbery of John Jackson, near the line of Pike, last October, it may not be uninteresting to your readers to have the details of the robbery, as developed by the testimony placed before them. It appears that about five weeks before the robbery, two men who then passed by the names ! ot Cooper and Williams, but who now answer ; to the names of Simpson and Copenhaver, i stayed all night at Mr. Jackson’s, and on pay- ] mg for their fare tho next morning, handed him j a 820 bill to he changed. In changing it, j M rs. Jackson got some money out of a trunk in tho closet, and thus they ascertained where I the money was kept. About midnight, on the ! 12th of October last year, the door of his dwell- ; ing was suddenly burst open, and several men ] entered the room occupied by Mr, and Mrs.’ Jackson. One, recognised by them on tho trial as Copenhaver, a stout, athletic man, went to their bed, and caught tho old man by the throat with one hand, and in a threatening manner, would slightly touch his head with a stick in the other, and upon Mrs. Jackson’s screaming, he ordered her to hush, and drawing a pistol, told her he could make her hush. Another, since re cognised as Dr. Roberts, held a lighted candle in his hand, while tho others opened the closet door, and took out the trunk—they immediately left the house. They were pursued early next morning, and about a quarter of a milefrom the house, the trunk was found -broken open, and rifled of its contents, amounting, according to Mr. Jackson's testimony, to about $0,500, all silver, except about SIOO in gold. Their trr.il was followed into Meriwether county, where they separated, three going a road in tho direc tion of Tennessee, and two towards Newnan, Coweta county. These two were arrested late in the evening in Newnan, and one called him self John B. Simpson, and the other at first re fused to give his name, but afterwards acknow ledged himself to he Dr. Roberts. In their sad dlebags were found about $940 in silver -a large amount of bills, most of which were counterfeit; two Percepts, for unlocking doors on the out side, when tho key is within—a bunch of skele ton or false keys for unlocking trunks, bureaus, desks eVe., a brace, such as is used by carpen ters for boring, two pistols and a slung shot, or a stout piece of leather, loaded at one end with lead. They were brought to Alonroe, and one of them, Simpson, under promise of being released, made a discloseure, by which the other three ere pursued to Tennessee, and two of them, Copenhaver and Clark, were arrested and iirought back Clark, when arrested, made a full confession ofthe robbery, without.tny prom i.-.c of being released, and upon the back, con ducted the persons in charge of him to the place iu Meriwether county, where more of the money was secreted ; it was concealed in three separate parcels, and amounted to $1,217 in silver. Two hills of indictment were preferred against them and found true —one for Burglary and the other for Robbery ; and Dr. Roberts was indic ted singly as a rogue and vagabond, carrying ‘ about pick locks, false keys, &c. He was bound guilty of the three offences, and sentenced to nineteen years imprisonment in the Penitentiary Copenhaver was found guilty of burglary and robbery, and sentenced to the Penitentiary for fourteen years. He was indicted for perjury, j alleged have been committed during the Court, j and the case was continued until the next term, j Clark plead guilty on one bill; and in consider- | ation of his full and frank confession upon his j arrest, and also of having been led by the in-j fiuence of another man to join in the robbery, ho was sentenced to only four years confinement in the Penitentiary, and the other bill was nol prosequied as to him, Price, another of tho offenders, who escaped to Tennessee, upon his return there, was arrested and confined in jail for a murder previously committed Has been recently rescued from prison by some of his friends, and is now at large. But perhaps the most interesting part of tho trial was the examination of Simpson, as a wit ness, on the trial of Roberts, aa a rogue and [TERMS, $2 00 IN ADVANCE. vagabond. He was told by the Court, at the commencement of his examination, that he was not hound to answer any question which would el iminate himself; and he frequently availed himself of that exemption, ll seems that Roberts become displeased with him ou account of his betraying his associates, and appearing as a witness against them ; and , I being pretty well posted up with his history, ] from his intimacy with him, he was enabled to ! suggest many questions which Simpson retused I to answer ; and as bis refusal was based on the ! ground that he was not bound to criminate him self, the legitimate inference is, that the questions propounded to him, and which he declined to | answer, implied allegations of crime which are j true. When asked his name, he auswered to the 1 name of John 15. Simpson. He was asked if his true name is not Jonathan Chalfant he re fused to answer. I pen being asked where he was horn, lie said in Ohio—that he lived there until nineteen years of age, and theu went to Kentucky. He admitted that he knew Chalfant —that he was born Ohio and at about the same time that he was. Upon being shown the slung shot, and asked whose property it was, he re plied, he supposed he had as much right to it as Dr, Roberts. He was asked if he had never knocked any one down with it, and declined answering. He denied knowing Mr. Rambo, of Gwinnett county ; but upon being asked if ; he had not knocked him down with his slung ■ .-hot, or some other man, in that county, and ; robbed him ; he refused to answer. He was i asked if he. had not been confined in jail in ] Chillicothe, Ohio for murder, and declined an swering ; but, upon being further interrogated he admitted that he knew Henry Thomas, who had been in jail in Chillicothe for murder, and was hung for that crime—that he was in jail : with him, but refused to answer, if he was not there under the name of Chalfant In one of the cheap publications of the day, ] of a certain character, entitled “The Life and Adventures of Henry Thomas, the Western Burglar and Murder,” it will lie seen that Thomas ; was confined in jail in Chillicothe, for the rob | bery and murder of a man by the name of Ed wards, and that an accomplice by the name of ! Chalfant was imprisoned at the same time with him. Simpson was finally asked if he knew Gov. Ousley, of Kentucky, and answered that he did He was asked if he had -been paid SSOO to as sassinate him, and refused to answer the ques tion, in such a manner as to leave no doubt of his guilt. Various other questions were put to him, not now recollected, but enough has been detailed to show that he is covered all over with j infamy of the deepest and blackest dye. He is a keen, shrewd, artful scoundrel, and has no doubtless, been engaged in the commission of crime almost the whole of his life. lie was re manded to jail be disposed of at some future time. It is fortunate for the country that the band lias been broken up. Too much praise cannot be awarded to the gentlemen who have been active in bringing them to justice. Roberts and Copenhaver will carry their casses to tho | Supreme Court, but upon mere technical excep ; tions—Messrs. Lamar <-V Lochratie and Ham j moml were appointed their counsel by the i Court, and discharged their duty ably and faith fully. <b C. Gibson and 11.

Singular Marriage of the Emperor’s I’liyscian, The marriage of the physician of Louis Na poleon, Dr. Coiineau, is announced. We learn i from the Courier des Etats Unis that he Ims, i in imitation of his royal master, espoused a i lady thirty years younger than himself, — Conneau, who ts said to be a most excellent man, had been the tutor of this young lady : from her infancy, having bestowed upon her all the tender care and solicitude of a farther. Some time ago, finding his charge ol an age and in a position to lie married, he offered his services in making for her an advantageous selection.-- But l have already made my choice, replied the young lady, and I am ready to be married at anv time. How! rejoined the astonished j doctor, have you indeed selected your husband ; j and who is the happy man ? It is yourself, res : ponded the damsel ; 1 love you with all my heart, and I am now ready to become your wife. Too much surprised at this declaration to 1 believe his pupil in earnest, the doctor turned it off - as a pleasantry. she insisted that she was serious, he at length made a formal and distinct refusal of the hand she had offered him. The young lady, however, as it seems, well consid f ered the subject, and her purpose was not to be changed. She reproached her tutor with uu kindness, and with a willingness to make her miserable. The doctor yielded so far as to take the subject again into consideration, and aftei consulting with his master and friend, the Empeior, at length decided to accept the lady’s I offer and become the happy husbandofhis now | happy pnpil- Tub Clim.w oi Pe.mhv.—We remember an old lady who was so remarkably economical that sho had a pair of shoes made for her little I git l without soles, for fear she would wear them out.
