Brown in his Message for the purpose of satisfying the Legislature that the income of the State Road will be sufficient to establish an edu cational system, pay the public debfein a few years, and reduce the taxes : affirmed that the net earn ings would average $300,000 per annum, and sta ted th.it if lie were satisfied the Legislature and people of Georgia desired him to do so, he would take the road for ten years as* an individual, and pay for the nse of it $25,000 per month, and he would forfeit and pay $10,000, every time a month ly payment should be delayed twenty-five days. He stated also that he would give bond with am ple security, that lie would return the road at the cud of the lease in as good order as it was 1st of January last. That he would obligate himself to lay down ten miles of the track every year with new T. iron, and that the freight shall at no time be raised above the average of freights on other roads in Georgia. A bill has since been introduced into the Senate to lease the Road to a company, who propose to give $325,060 per annum for the Road, payable monthly. The members of this company do not propose to lay down any number of miles of iron each year, nor do they propose to give either bond or ample security that the road shall be kept in good order. The corporators do not even propose to bind their individual property, jointly andsoverally, that it shall be kept up.

Editors :—It is with deep regret, that the writer has been informed that there is a dispo sition, on the part of some members of our present Legislature, to abolish the Supreme Court. The reason for this, it is said, is because that Court has made a decision as to the liability of stock holders in a certain broken Ilank for the payments of its debts, which is not approved. Admit that deci sion to he both contrary to law and the justice of the case (but about which the writer offers no opin ion) is that sufficient cause to abolish the tribunal altogether ? If this rule were adopted, all our Courts would be abolished and we would be left in a state of perfect anarchy directly. Justices’Courts, Inferior Courts and Superior Courts, all decide cases, and that often, both con trary to law aud justice. Suppose, to test this rule further, that we get an inefficient, or even a cor rupt man in the Executive chair, should we abolish the office of Governor, on t hat account ? No sane man would seriously propose such remedy. We would rather try to have better success in electing another. If then, there be objections to either one, or even to all, our present Supreme Court Judges, (and I know of no one who objects to all of them) had we not better try to remove that object in a similar way 1 What sort of a judiciary would we now have without a Supreme Court, while our Superior courtjudges are elected by the people ? Just such as I hope may never afflict Ga. With such a judiciary we would have occasion enough to com plain. In the first place, we would have as many codes of laws as Superior Court Judges, as was the case before we had a Supreme Court; but, which would now bo much worse, a poor mau, or one without influence at the polls, would stand no sort of chance to get justice, in many cases, agaiust one who can control his hundreds of voters. Do not say this censurejis too severe agaiust our Judges, of the Superior Courts. It is hut the na ked, unvarnished truth, as any man of ordinary observation will attest, who has attended the courts and noted the working of our present system as much as thewriter has. These Judges are but men, descended from Adam since he fell, and are, by no means, in some instances, the most infallible, or conscientious, even of his race. A great deal bet ter service may he rendered the country, I think, by further enactments to perfect our present system. To do this, as the most important change necessa ry, I would suggest that our present Legislature enact a law to restrain our Supreme Court from overruling their own decisions, but require them to stand as first made, until the Legislature shall interfere ; then by rendering our laws more stable, and to require the Judges of the Superior Courts, in all cases in the last resort, to deliver their deci sions and charges to the jury in writing. Let the charge he then handed to the foreman, and when returned into court, let it be filed by the Clerk, with the other papers in the case, and making it grouud of error for the Judge to deliver auy other charge. We would then avoid much angry con troversy between counsel, in taking up eases, and the Judge, as to what was charged; aud the same questions would then be presented to tiio Supreme Court, that were determined in the Court below, and that is not always the case note, as many par ties aud their attorneys can truly attest. civis. ——• [Communicated.] Taylor County, Nov. 12th, 1858. Editors of Federal Cniou :—In your paper of 2d iust.,1 notice that a meeting was held in Atlanta on the 22d ultimo, by a portion of the friends of a general system of Public Education. The report of a committee of said meeting, recommends that a department of public education he organized by the next Legislature, with a responsible head and adequate compensation, &c. This proposition to increase the offices of State, imposes an additional tax upon the people which is unnecessary, as the offices now iu existence are sufficient to meet all the wants of the gsvornmeut. If the present sys tem of education is defective, the constitution of Georgia authorizes "the Governor to offer a remedy, by recommendiug to the Legislature such meas ures as he may deem necessary and expedient; this certainly includes every measure of profit and interest to the State, and makes the appointment of such new offices as that pointed out in the re port. a positive burden to the people. No school system that has been adopted in Georgia has serv ed any purpose more noticeable than this, that it was made to be changed by the next Legislature. If this practice is to be coutinued, it would be wiser if the Legislature would change their time of meet ing from one to five years, rather than increase public expenses by an increase of offices. An imperative duty of all people iu a free gov ernment, is to guard against the increase of public offices. So important was this subject considered by the Colonists of these United Slates, that they made it a solemn matter of complaint in the De claration of Independence ; asserting that the King of Great Britain had sent over swarms of of ficers to bairass the people, aud eat out their sub stance. It is clear, that it is too much the practice of pub lie men to lessen the services of officers by increa sing their number, whilst they manifest no son of disposition to make a reduction in their salaries . if public labor and wages were made to corresgond, the whole country would be less cursed with that class of speculators, whose employment is a “wild hunt after office.” The education of the youth of this State is a subject in wliien every Georgian should feel interested, and for the accomplishment of that object, none ought to withhold assistance ; but the money raised foi that purpose should never be wasted in the manner contemplated by the re port referred to. The chief obstacle in the present school system of this State is not likely to be obviated by the adoption of any other; because the Legislature cannot justly establish any plan that will compel parents to semi their children to school. It is not dreu in the State are not educated: but it is gross and willful negligence on the part ol parents of such children. The only remedy for this evil, is for the people of each community to see that eveiy child iu their midst is sent to school. A little ex ertion in this way, will bi of more benefit than week* or months of legislation. B. STEWART. From the Boat ou Literary Gazette. Trof, Wood's Hair Restorative. It deserves to he called one of the greatest discove ries of the age, as it not only turns the hair back to its original color, but removes all dandruff from the scalp; and cures cutam-rons irritations, and is a stimulant und tonic to the ognns necessary to supply nutriment aud coloring matter to the hair. It. removes the causes which tend to turn the hair gray, it prevents the hair from falling off, and brings it out where the head is bald.

Sold here by Jill Druggists tion, is therefore much the safest for the State. By his proposition, 100 miles of the road would he laid down with new iron during the lease. This would cost $350,000, or more, and would keep up the road. A corporation may promise to do so, but without security, the State has not sufficient guar anty that the road will be kept up. The bill proposes that tho rates of passage or freight on the road, shall in no case be more than is allowed on the Georgia Railroad. The charter of the Georgia road was granted when rail reading was an experiment. Hence the rates which the company may charge are very high. Competition compels this company to keep down its freights far below what the laics would allow them to charge, otherwise the freights would all go in the direction of Savannah. The charter of the Georgia road provides that the charge for transportation or con veyance shall not.exceed fifty cents per hundred pounds, on heavy articles, and ten cents per cubic foot upon articles of measurement, for every one hundred miles, and five cents per mile for every passenger. Should this lease he made, let us see how much this company would have the right to raise the freight on the Western & Atlantic Rail road, (and there is no competition to prevent it.) At present a car load of stone coal weighing 16,000 pounds is carried over the road from Chattanooga to Atlanta for $13. It the lease is granted to this company, as proposed, they will have a legal right lo charge $110 30 for carrying the same load. Corn is now carried over the road for a few cents per bushel, (we do not know the exact freight.) Then the company might charge for 286 bushels or 16,' 000 pounds, $110 30. A passenger is now carried over the road 138 miles iu length for $5. Oe might then be charged $5 90. It is useless to multiply the examples. The Legislature will Dot be likely to give auy company a lease on this great State work with any such privileges or powers. They would be certain to be abused. We believe by the end of ten years the road 1% 111 nett tu tile State $500,000 per annum. It is now doing well, and it is best to let well enough alone. We do not fa vor a lease to uny company. The people of Geor gia are entitled to the increased profits of the road. It has now been demonstrated that the road is a paying concern. It will pay well while the present Executive is in office, and hi3 successors will be one term men if they fail to make it pay. The Peniteutiary. There is no subject that is constantly brought before the Georgia Legislature, that is surrounded by so much unnecessary obscurity, as the Peuiteu- tiary. The people of Georgia and the members of the Legislature, have come to the conclusion, that the Penitentiary has been of enormous expense to the State; that this expense is altogether unneces sary, and therefore, the Penitentiary should be abolished or moved to some other place. A short review of the facts will conviuce any mau, who is desirous of coming to the truth, that all of these conclusions are erroneous. By referring to the re cord, we learn that from the time the Penitentiary was first established in 1817 to the present year, it has cost the State about eleve» thousand dollars a year. This includes the entire cost of the first buildings, the re-building them twice after they were destroyed by fire, and all the expenses of guarding, and recapturing, and maintaining the convicts, in sickness and health. This is after all, but a small sum for so large a State as Georgia to pay for the protection of her citizens from the vi cious and depraved. It should be kept in remembrance, that many of the vagabonds that lay for a long time sick iu tlie Penitentiary, at the expense of that institution, would have to be supported by public charity, if there were no Penitentiary. And it is the opinion of many, that the cost of confining criminals in the county jails would be five times what it now is, if there were no Penitentiary. But it is contended by some, that the Penitentiary can b9 moved to some point where it can bs made to sustain itself The enormous expense of moving and re-building, we believe, would exceed all of the necessary ap propriations for maintaining it where it is for the next hundred years, and after it is moved, it is very doubtful whether a better site could be selected than the present. If the object is to employ the prisoners in cutting stone, there are inexhaustible beds of grauite within a short distance of the pre sent location; but it will be found on trial that the sale of the stone will never repay the expense. Two of the best and most remunerating employ ments that convicts can be set at, is building Rail Road cars, and tanning leather, and making shoes. These can be carried on as well at tiie present lo cation, as any where in the State. Tan bark may he got cheaper in some other place, but lhat is but a small item of expense, aud hides can be bettfer aud easier procured here, and shoes gold at abetter profit than where bark is cheap. It has so hap pened that previous to the present iucuinbent, nearly ever/ Principal Keeper of the Penitentiary for many years has been anxious to get the Peui- teutiarv moved to some favorite locality. This may, and probably has, prevented him from keeping the present walls and building in that state of re pairs which might have been done by the means at his disposal. The idea that the walls were rot ten and ready to fall, has been held out for many Harulaff afLa&yeMt Matt! About 3 o’clock, A M., on Tuesday morning Lafayette Hail .took fire and in about three hours was a mass of rains. The fire originated in the north wing in a defec tive chimney. This we doubt not, is true. We had several versions of the manner in which the fire originated, but all, we believe, agree in attrib uting it to a defect in the chimney .where it passed up through the ceiling. From eighty to one hun dred persons were asleep in the building when it took fire. No accident to life or limb occurred, that we have heard of. Every exertion was made by our citizens, and members of the Legislature to save the furniture, Jtc We might refer to several gentlemen who were most active and useful, but all seemed disposed to do what they could under the circumstances. Without an engine, the fire could not be arrested: and all efforts were directed towards saving furniture, &c. This fire has placed a heavy load of affliction on Mr. Candler and his interesting family. Mr. C. had hut lately taken the Hall—had fitted it up comfortably, and as a reward for his labors, he had secured a great many boarders. This accident drives him out of a business that would have re munerated him, and blasts all bis fond anticipa tions. The heartfelt sympathies of the entire community's well as of the members of the Leg islature, are with him in his great loss. The buil ding we believe was insured. There are some reminiscences, coincidences. &c., connected with this building, which we think deserve a passing notice. This House was built about the year 1823, by Col. Sea born Jones, aud first occupied by Wm. F. Scott, Esq. It is the house, at which Gen. Lafayette put up on his visit to this place in 1625. There was sleeping in it, when it took fire, an old gentleman who slept in it thirty-four years since, on the first night it was ever occupied as a Hotel. On look ing at an old copy of Sherwood’s Gazetteer, we see its original cost was $25,000. DmUi Twialed Humbug. The Constitutionalist of the 14th instant, in an swer to an article in the Newnan Blade, charging the hanks of Georgia with controlling the nrice of cotton, puts forth the following awful threat: “ It is equally fair, and far more truthful and legitimate, to declare that Governor Brown and his anti-bank friends are waging a war on capita] and credit, to break down the value of property, and the price of cotton, and the wages of labor, tnat he and some of his friends may realise fortunes from the depreciation of cotton, labor and property, gen erally. The result of this crusade is already seen and felt in the depreciation of cotton—and the fier cer the war becomes, the lower cotton will go; for English manufacturers and Yankee spinners, no ticing the war on our currency, know that cotton will decline in value, and they co-operate with Governor Brown and his anti-bank friends to les sen the value of cotton, destroy the value of ne gro and other property, reduce the wages of la bor, and prostrate the agricultural interests of the State. The yeomanry of Georgia will visit with tenible retribution their indignation against those who adopt such unhallowed means to impair the value of their produce, the rewards of their labor, and the savings of their industry.” Now, we believe that the people of Georgia, “the yeomanry'' if so the Constitutionalist pleases to call them, have more sense than to believe that the Governor or the banks of Georgia can permanent ly affect the price of cotton. The value of cotton depends upon the demand and supply; upon the peace and prosperity of Europe, and upon a thou sand things outside of Georgia, and over which, neither our Governor nor the banks of Georgia have any control. If the Governor of Georgia should happen to die, we believe the price of cot ton would not he affected in the least by that event, and il every bank in Georgia were struck out of existence, we do not believe that would af fect the price of cotton but a few days. Just as much colton would be wanted, and if there were no bank bills in Georgia, money would bo sent from other places in a short time to purchase all of our cotton and the difference in the price would only be the cost of transporting funds to Georgia l’he value of cotton is regulated by other markets outside of Georgia, and we in Georgia caunot af fect it permanently except by the amount we bring into the market. If we understand Gov. Brown, he makes no war upon sound banks. Ho only en deavors to enforce the laws made to govern them when combined, with millions of money at their control? The Railroads of Georgia are all now working well. The State Bond, while under the control of the people, serves as a cheek or bal ance wheel to regulate the other Reads. But let this great controlling power once get into the hands of 8 company of shrewd speculators, and what could prevent them from joining a combina tion with one or more of the other R. R. Com panies, and riding rough shod over the people.— We know they would ha7e the power to do it; and who will say they would not have the dis position? When the interests of a great State is put into the power of a chartered company of sharp speculators, theu we say in all sincerity, “May God have mercy upon the people,” for they have no hope from any other source. But the State Road is now doing well, no complaint comes up from any quarter; it is every year be coming more and more viruable aud useful to the people, and why, in the name of every thing that is decent, do the members of the Legislature wish to disturb this happy condition of things? Have their constituents instructed them to do it? far from it. We have not the least indications that they desire it. Is there an instance in the annals of Georgia legislation, since the Yazoo specula tion, where the Legislature, without any instruc tion, have disposed of eight or ten millions of the people s property. Not one. And we have idea that this Legislature will venture upon snch a hold, and as we verily believe, such a fatal pro ject. If this subject should be further agitated in the Legislature, as we presume it will he, this company are not the inen to abandon a favor ite project, we shall have many more things to say about it in future.

Those who send ns $3,25, will get the Federal Union one year, and the Home Magazine one year. Send the money to us. Supreme Caart. If there is one opinion that has gained ground among the people during the past year, more than another, it is, that tho Supreme Court should be located permanently at the State Capital. This peddling justice around the country, is beneath the dignity of a tribunal of the character and force of our Supreme Court. The United States Su preme Court is located at the Federal Capital, Washington; and in most of the States, where there is such a tribunal, it is located at the seat of Government. Here we have appropriate Rooms for the meeting of the Court—access to the most complete Law Library iu the State, aud a city at all times healthy. Milledgeville is now easily reached from any section of the State, and her ac commodations will successfully compare with those of the largest city iu Georgia. Public opinion is clearly in favor of locating the Court here, and the Representatives will do the Court a signal benefit, and the people justice, by deciding to make the sittings of the Supreme Court perma nent at the Seat of Government. fiaveraar Browu’a Neuagr We publish to-day a Message fiom Governor Brown in answer to a call upon him, in regard to certain facts connected with the management of the State Road. We publish it as a matter of pub lie interest on a subject exciting some interest in the Legislature at present. Message to the House of Kepreseatatlees. Executive Department, \ Milledgeville, Ga., Nov. 18th, 1658. V To the House of Representatives ; In reply to a Resolution of the House of the I6th instant, calling upon me for iutormation on several points connected with the management of the Western & Atlantic Railroad, I have to state that the report of James M. Spurlock, Esq., former Su perintendent, now of file in this Department, shows that the gross income of the Road for the fiscal year ending 3<)th Sept., 1857, amounted to $900,808 95, ami that $100,000 was paid into the Treasury during that year. It also appears from the Report of Dr. Lewis, the present Superintendent, that the gross income fir the fiscal year, ending 30th Sept., 1858—for reasons already communicated to the Legislature, amounted to only $800,001 28, aud that tho gross income of the Road from 1st January to 30th of September, 1858, (being the first nine months of Dr. Lewis's administration of the Road, and which period he reported seperately) amounted to $618,- 874 52. During this nine months the present Superin tendent paid into the State Treasury $175,000, and since that time he has also paid in the further sum of $25,000 for the month of October. It will further be seen by reference to the report of Dr. Lewis, that he paid during the nine months $172,116 74 ot debts against the Road, which had been contracted by former administrations, and that he had a balance in the Treasury 30th Sept., last, of $59,820 74 to meet bonds of funded debts, soon to fall due. and to pay balance for the con struction of Chattanooga Depot, when finished, &c. By reference to the report of the Senate Commit tee, it will he seen that the present Superinten dent, when lie entered upon the discharge of his duties on the first of January last, was properly charged with about $57,324 15 of solvent assets, due from connecting Roads and from agents, aud that there was then turned over to him a balance in the Treasury of the Road of $15,907 43. Deduct the above sum of $57,324 15 of solvent assets from the $172,116 74, aud it will be seen that the amount paid of debts of prior administra tions, exceeds the amount of solvent assets receiv ed from the prior admiuistration, the sum of $114,- 792 59 while the balance in tho Treasury of the Road, on the 30th ‘ept., 1858 was $43,913 31, lar ger than the balance in the Treasury 1st January last. Recapitulation of the foregoing statements taken from the reports above refered to.

The jail to be built of the of heart of Yellow Pine, 20 feet square; the timbers to be 10 inches square; two tears of 12 inch square timber to be laid ou the ground for the floor; two walls to be made out of 10 square timber and dove-tailed together, the out side wall to be 20 feet square, and to be 10 inch space between the two walls, to be filled up with 10 inch square timber; to be set on end, and there to be two windows in the dungeon 18 inch square, and to have 1-12 inch square bars of iron for the grading, substantial set in the floors, to be 9 feet apart, the boor over the dungeon to be made of 12 inch square timber, and the door to the dungeon to open on the upper floor iu the centre of the house and the out side wall to he made 9 feet high above the dun geon; for the debtors room out of 10 inch timber and 10 inch floor of square timber. The roof to be covered with heart shingles and to extend all round so as to box the eaves; aud covered hip roof and to be two windows and they graded as the lower windows. And to be a stair case to go up to the door in the debtors room. The trap door is to be fixed with a good iron bar across the door, and it to be substantially locked so os to be safe. Tho step or stair case to run up on the out side, and to be made of the best of lightwood or cypress; and the house to be weahther boarded on the out side with 6 or 7 inch weather boarding, and both floors to be laid with 1-12 inch flooring, and the flooring to be well It is there stated that the sum of $26,223 5,1 has ! spiked down; and the door to the debtors room is to have $900,808 95 $100,000 00 $800,001 28 $618,874 52 $57,324 15 $15,907 43 $175,000 00 $59,820 74 $25,000 00 been paid to Attorneys since 1853, including $8,(A)y 00 to R.

It is undoub tedly necessary that more cells he built, and more work shops provided for the increased number of convicts, and we are assured that all necessary repairs and improvements can he made with some thirty or forty thousand dollars, which would be but a drop of the bucket, in comparison to the enor mous expeuse of moving the Penitentiary, or sup porting convicts in the county jails. We intend to investigate this subject further at some future time, when we ihink we shall be able to prove, that a well conducted Penitentiary system is as cheap, and as effectual a preventive of. and a pun ishment for, crime, as has yet been devised.

W 1 Lease ef the State Read. Tlie answer that appeared in our paper of yes terday over the signature “ S ” to our arguments against leasing the State Road, is more plausible than sound, more specious than convincing. The writer says the company will obligate themselves to do all that we require, will promise to lay down the ten miles of iron a year, and will return the road at the end of ten years in as good order as they found it. To all this we answer, that expe rience has taught us that no obligation written on parchment or paper, is strong enough to hind a company of shrewd men with eight or Ten millions of money at their control. The writer calls upon us to reflect upon the possible accidents that may happen to the road, how its bridges may be de stroyed by tire or flood, or the produce of the land may he cut off, and consequently, the business of the road ruined by providential causes. We have thought of all these things, and we feel assured from the history of all contracts made' between in dividuals and the State, that in such events the company would apply to the Legislatuie for relief and would get it. The company would take all the chances for making money, but if by any ac cident or casualty they should happeu to lose, they would apply to the justice and magnanimity of the State, aud the people would have to suffer the loss. Iu short, in all bargains between a chartered com pany and the State, if it turns out favorable to tiie company they insist upon the fulfilment of the contract; hut if unprofitable, they repudiate the contract, and apply to tho Legislature for relief, and tho Legislature always relieves them. Tell us uot, then, about the liberal promises of a compauy that has all the power atfd patronage and money of the State Road to back them. In less time than the ten years for which their proposed charter is to run, they wouid have ac quired power sufficient to control some future Legislature, and thus be able to perpetuate their lease and their power, as long as they chose. The gentleman who writes for the Company, calls upou us to look at their names, as if the very mention of them was enough to put down all op position. We have looked at them, and we con fess the contemplation has not served in the least to allay our fears, that the State may suffer when put into their power and keeping. These gentle men have acquired a very wide reputation as suc cessful speculators. They always get tho best end of every bargain, and make the most of eve ry chance to make money. If as individuals no one has been able to coatend against them suc cessfully, what may not the people fear from them following persons, to wit: To W 11 Underwood $ 300 00 “ Turner H Trippe, 200 03 “ J W H Underwood, 1,920 00 “ Grifllu «fc Gordon, 20 00 “ John C Burch, 1,623 25 ” Gaitreil hi Glenn, 475 50 “ Glenn &.
