Our neighbors nor witlii" river, print ct Icgislatut iir determined, by superior zeal, and eu- rffV) ; , ni l liberality, to seize and liear v'.v tlif glittering prize, the commerce of til,* West. If it be true, that Georgia j j cS;S talent, and energy, and liber- •tiitv than South Carolina, let us ac knowledge our inferiority, and ttike a se- roiid;,rv place, and resign to our superior dint fkiced of wealth which indulgent and Imuiitifiil nature liad designed for our Our resources are more ample, nml our position is more favorable lor the acc omplishment ol' this great work. We have a richer treasury. Our territory is I'ir more extensive, and contains a much buyer I|uantity of fresh and fertile; soil.— Our climate is more genial. To construct her rail road, South Carolina must scale ^(■cp and rocky mountains; she must la bour over long tracts of barren and iimun- •t tinous country. The construction and preservation of her work will require ex traordinary skill and perseverance; and will cost immense sums. But her citi zens, with a generous ardor, with a high *11,1 oallant determination, with a vi.tu- •oiis, a nolde ambition to make theirCaro- li n -t the first state of the South, have re- gohc.t to endure every expense, to en counter even' difficulty, to surmount eve ry obstacle, and to complete a great wes tern mil road in their state, in defiance of the almost impassable harrier which na ture has reared across their route. How different is our position! The mountain ridge which extends in an unbroken chain, Irani the northern part of New York, and kiimvn in different places as the Blue Kidge, the Alleghany, or the Apallaeliian Mountains, terminates.in Georgia; and in travelling to the West, we. may pass a- roitml its southern extremity, taking our route through beautiful and fertile.vallics, Jving longitudinally in our course. Thro’ these vallies, iti a large part of the dis tance from the (Jhaltahoochie to the. Ten nessee line, we may preserve almost a perfect level, uninterrupted bv that ine- (111:ilitv of surface, that irregular succes sion of bill and hollow, which we find in every other section of the stale, except the pine region. The South Carolina road, after it shall have passed the princi pal ridge, will still he at a great distance iroinanv country capable of furnishing a valuable commerce; and in extending it towards Cineinnutti, it. must be conduct ed over a long tract of mountainous and unproductive territory. But when the Georgia route shall leave her own vallies, on her northern frontier, its termination will be lmt a few easy miles (seven we believe) from that noble stream, the Ten nessee river. The Tennessee will con nect our rail road with till the other navi gable rivers ol the West, and will open toils the commerce of the whole vallev of the Mississippi. If, with our ample resources, we shall fail to accomplish a work so easy ol completion, and so pro lific of benefits to the state; if, entangled by the snares of selfish cupiditv, or thwarted bv the schemes of vile ambition, Wf shall fi.il to fulfil the high destiny in- dicated for our state bv beneficent nature, a deep ami burning stigma will brand the names of the Georgians of this genera tion. Let every friend to the cause of in ternal improvement exert a watchful guardian care over Georgia’s greatest, most magnificent, most profitable enter- prize. Let the people determine not to J^rmit a waste or misapplication of those funds, which are competent to exalt their state, to a pitch of glorious prosperity.

To the Editor <f the Federal Union: 1 lie State ot Georgia is about entering upon a splendid plan of internal improve ments bv rail-roads, and the main Stale work will occupy the Cherokee counties, ihen, sir, there will arise two or three questions of magnitude to the builder or builders of that great work, which are these, viz: 1st. Which is the most eligible starting place on the Tennessee line? 2d. What course, or what ground will the road pass which will consume the least capital in constructing the road, and at the sam time render the greatest service to the country? These two last questions will be settled by the experiments of the engi neer on an actual survey of the various routes. I lay this principle, down as worthy the consideration of those whose dutv .-hall be to locate the road, viz: That vested rights under legislative enactments in fix ing iijKin and erecting the public building? ol counties will be regarded with peculiar carr; this the rights of the citizens hold ing town properly in those places will call tor, ns well as the interest of the stock holders. The interest of the holder of town property needs no arguments to veri fy, but that of the stockholders does. I may be asked, how it will be affected? To which 1 answer, that our county towns do the greater part of the commerce or trade of the country, and furnish the passenger revenue to the rail-road. Then, if this be the case, as the profits of the rail-road-ure dependent upon the commercial commu nity, so it will l>e the interest of the rail road to touch as near as possible the resi dence of this its dependence; the duties and interest ot each are reciprocal. Then, sir, let the rail-road be located so as to pass as many of our countv towns as is consistent with the rail-road or as may not materially affect that interest to prejudice. I now come to the subject of the be ginning upon the Tennessee line, and the route through which the road may pass.— It is well known that there is an obstruc tion to the easy passage ol steamboats in the Tennessee river just where the stream passes through between the Lookout mountain and the Cumberland moun tain, called the “suck.” Then to obviate this difficulty, let the beginning point be tit the foot of the Lookout mountain. By so doing, we get nearer the Tennessee river than we can at any other point, and at the same time create an opening for a large and enterprising town upon the soil of our beloved Georgia, the advantage of which will demonstrate itself to every reflecting mind. This advantage to Geor gia can be made result to ns by tbe loca tion ol the road. The road may be made to leave this point and go to Rome, Flovd county, bv the way of this place, in a direction with little or no meandering.*, from Rome it may pass bv or in the vicinity of Marietta, Cobb county; and thence to its point ofdestinat ion on the Chat tahoochee river; thus taking in its course three flourishing villages, one of which bids (air to become a commercial town of no inconsiderable magnitude. While on the subject, I may suggest, that ns far as my information extends, there are no hills ol' consequence to impede the construc tion of the-road from tbe Tennessee line to Rome; and from tbe latter place to tbe Chattahoochee, it is believed to be alto gether practicable. Should von not deem the foregoing re marks inadmissible, you may insert them in your valuable paper. WALKER. FOR THE FEDERAL C XI OX. Mr. Editor—1 wish to avail mvself of vour journal to communicate to the public a tew ideas touching a subject of vital^ importance to my character as a man. Unaccustomed as I am to appear as a writer in a public journal, no con sideration but self-defence, could induce me to intrude on your notice; and I would endure much and forbear long, before I would take m v pen even Ibr this purpose. But 1 have forborne until forbearance has liecomc a fault, and in justice to myself, and in justice to mv friends who are far away, fain compelled to speak out, and I hope to speak in such terms that I may not be misunderstood by any. It is a notorious fact, that certain indi viduals have taken the responsibility to circulate reports respecting me, or at least respecting some individual identified with mv name, which are calculated to damn tne forever in public estimation, however pure in reality mv character may he. lain informed that it is current ly reported—yea, “that it is on t lie longues of’ everyone” that I am a rene gade and a swindler, that I have runaway from an amiable, wife and friends, none of whom know where I am, &c. &e. When these reports first came to mv knowlcgc, I considered them unworthy of attention; I looked upon them as tbe chit chut of gossips, who make themselves busy in intermeddling with the private affairs, and slandering the characters of their neighbors, and I thought myself a victim only in common with others. I considered mv character too well eslnb- lislicd to be affected by the efforts of such despicable animals. I thetefore remained silent. But by some unaccountable pro cess, my silence has been construed into an acknowledgment of the truth of these reports, even bv some who are well ac quainted with my true character. It has therefore become necessary for me to de clare, which I do in the most fearless and emphatic manner, that had th'c “father of lies” himself in his most imaginative moments exerted all his skill, lie could not h ive fabricated a tissue of grosser false hoods than arc these reports. They arc fahe in, torn, thorp not being the least shadow of foundation whatever on which they could possibly be based. I now call on those who have been in strumental either in fabricating or circu lating such reports, to show cause, if you have any, for your conduc t. I challenge vou to the •proof. You have burled your shafts of defamation as ,hc cowardly as sassin wields his poisoned dagger. Shrink not from the responsibility. Publish your proof to the world, or your silence shall henceforth declare that you have acted the part of base and despicable slanderers. 1 J. PALMER*.

U e have laid aside for the present rome editorial matter prepared ibr this day’s paper,lo publish what follows, taken from ihe Columbus Herald of last Tues day. And we do so with the view of cal ling the attention of the people of Georgia to the subject, that,, ifthey think it ofsuffi- ciciit importance, they in.ty take it under immediate and serious consideration, and then adopt the most energetic measures, m order to prevent or neutralize the fatal consequences which inevitably will be produced by the uncontrolled influence Inc L tilled Suites Bank will excercise in Georgia, through a local institution, the capital of which is owned by it. With the principal bank at Columbus, and branches at Savannah, Macon, and Augusta, the free and independent stale of Georgia, will be made to bend to the power of the United States Bank. The people will become the mere agents of the directors of that institution, and all our lo cal batiks will lie compelled to follow the dictates of, and the regulations prescrib ed to them by, individuals who entertain feelings, and will have interests diometri- eally opposite to the feelings and interests of our own citizens. The capital of the Insurance Bank may he only $000,000; but the whole capital uf the United States Bank will be employed to support the op erations of that local institution. Will our local banks be able to contend against tui institution supported bv a capital of $35, 000,000, with an unlimited credit in eve ry important city of the Union? Will the banks of Augusta be .able to contend a- jainst such influence? Will the fieople >f Georgia be able to resist the influence that will inevitably be excercised over our financial and, even political transac tions? We earnestly recommend imme diate action on the part of the people; meetings should be held in cverv county of the state condemning the estnblisment in Georgia of the power of the United States Bank through flic means of a local institu tion, and recommending the call of an ex tra session of the legislature, for the pur pose of adopting such constitutional and 1 means, as may prohibit at once and hereafter the introduction in the heart of Georgia, of a power which must prove so destructive to our public institutions, and to the liberties we now enjoy; a power more to be dreaded, because it will be ttpporled by thirty five millions of dollars. A branch oft he Insurance Bank is to be cs- abh’sbed in Augusta. Shall we tamely sulw mit to such an arbitrary measure? With out consulting the citizens of Augusta; without asking them whether they are or tot desirous of the location of a branch a- mongthcin, the! nited States Bank deter mine on establising a controlling institu tion in our city! And all this without first ascertaining whether they would be a- ble to find among onr patriotic citizens, men to serve as directors, and assist, as such in placing the state of Georgia at the feet of a monied aristocracy, more to lie dreaded than the sword and despotism of a military dictator. We are mortified that Mr. Biddle and oeiutes in Georgia, should have be directors for the principal bank, anJ for directors and cashiers for the branches at Savannah and Macon. Dreadful Shipwreck and loss of lives.—A- gain have we to record the loss of a vessel on Long Island, within sight of Sandy Hook—and it is said lost ONE HUN DRED AND EIGHT PERSONS, out of one hundred and sixteen, which composed the passengers and crew. The wreck- master has come up from the wreck, and states that the barqe Mexico, 70 days f rom Liverpool, for this port, went ashore on Hempstead Bar, one quarter of a mile from the shore, on Tuesday morning, and only eight persons had lauded when lie left. We have since heard, but sincerely hope it is not true, that the only persons saved were the captain, one mate, 3 sea men and 3 passengers. The others, it is said, perished with cold. This vessel was off’the Hook on Sunday, firing for a pilot, but did not succeed, and it is supposed that she put ashore for the safety of the passengers and crew—being short of provisions. We are happy to state that the Under writers have chartered the Pilot Boat Thomas II. Smith, as relief boat to ves sels that may he on the coast, in distress, and that she sailed yesterday morning with ample supplies. The underwriters have also supplies of provisions on board the news boat T. H. Smith, to be put on board any vessels she may fall in with in distress.—.Y. I r . M. Advertiser, 4th i/ist. !

This mstiiuiion lias changed hands, the char ter having been purchased by a company of capitalists, at the head of whom stands Nicholas Biddle, Esq., president of the United Slates’ Bank of Pennsylvania. The capital has been increased to six hundred thousand dollars, and branches established at Macon, Augusta and Savannah. The institution therefore, ns now organized, will enjoy unusual business facilities, having in its power at all times to check or draw hills on New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Mobile and New Oj leans, besides having the capital of Mr. Biddle’s batik, (thirty-six millions) to back it in all its operations. With a great deal of pleasure, we communicate to the puMic the information given by ilie president pro tern, in relation to the future operations of the bank; it is to be conducted purely and strictly upon banking principles, self-interest and live love of private gain is to lie laid aside, and the good of the public consulted—we are much in want of iiu insulation thus managed; in fact it is im possible for a business community to get along and keep itself whole, without banking facilities and accommodations. The treasury circular, has spread a panic through the land, and in all communities its pressure and tyranny has been felt. We congratulate our fellow.ciiizons upon an increase of bank capital, which will be thrown into circulation, and of the prospect afforded them of once more placing themselves beyond the liability of being shaved. The follow ing is an extract from the minutes of the board winch convened on the 2d instant, and has been politely furnished us for publication by the pre sident pro tern. At a meeting of the stockholders of the Li- suranee Bank ofColumbus, held at the banking i;ouse in terms of the charter, on the 2J day of January bring the first Monday of the month. The second section of the fundamental articles of the constitution of said corporation was read, and thereupon, the following resolutions were adopted by a majority of the stockholders. Resolved, A majority of the stockhn!J“rs assenting thereto, that a branch of this bank be established at Savannah, and that the same be organized with the least practicable delay, and that a branch be established at Augusta at such time as it may appeal to the directors of the principal bank most for the interest of the stock holders, so to do, and that the branch now estab lished at Macon, shall be continued. Resolred, That the capital stock be increased to six hundred tliousand dollars, and that the cashier of the principal bank-is hereby authoriz ed and-instructed to issue scrip for three thou sand shares remaining unsold. Resolved, That the stockholders proceed forthwith to the election of five directors for the principal bank at Columbus, five for the branch at Savannah, four for the branch at Mucon, leaving'for, and authorizing the board of directors of the principal bank, to elect the directors and cashier for the branch at Augusta, when they determine to establish the same. Resolved, That the stockholders proceed to live election of a cashier for the branch at I Savanna!), and a cashier of the branch at Mucon. In conformity with the foregoing resolutions, S/tijnrrcck, Starvation and Cannibalism —The slii}> Gambia, Captain French, of New York, was recently wrecked, under the following horrible circumstances. She sailed from New York for Lisbon, on the lGtli of last month, with a cargo of rice and tobacco, and had been at sea but three days when she was compelled to lie to in a dreadful gale. On the night of the 19th she capsized, and the captain, first mate, and a passenger were in the cabin at the time, and were drowned. The survivors, seven in number, clustered around the forecastle, the only part out of water, and lashed themselves to the hilts. Here for three days and nights they were exposed to the pokings of the storm, with nothing to eat but a few raw potatoes, and no water. At this period two of the crew died, and the cabin boy died, raving mad: to sati.fu the (Tarings of hunger the boy teas cut up fprjood! On the m ‘ht of the 22d, the remainder of the crew, who had succeeded in reach ing the main top, saw' a vessel to leeward, which proved to he the ship ^e\v England, on board of which they were taken and landed in Boston. The names ol the survivors are Joseph Couillard, second mate, Samuel Bresson, Andrew Smith, and A. Smith. Those drowned were Captain French, Air. Jordan, mate, and John Dean, passenger. Jacobs, the cook, Andrew Patterson, seaman, and a Portu guese boy, named Alexander, died from fatigue and hunger.—Philadelphia Satur day News, 31 d nit.
