THE BINGIIAM AMENDMENT.
No action has been taken as yet,
on the Bingham Amendment by the
Senate. Both parties speculate -as
to the fate o{ the amendment. One
day we are informed by a telegram
from a reliable gentleman, that, the
amendment will pas3 the Senate, and
the next (lay, some other reliable
y 7
gentleman, of the opposite party has
counted noses and reports a majority
opposed to it. We shall see in a
few days the fate of this amendment.
It may be defeated, but if the House
of Representatives will assert its man
hood and independence, the Georgia
Bill can never pass the House, with,
out, some such provisions. We hope
at least that the House will stick out
against the policy of Butler and Bul
lock. For ourselves, we prefer the
unlimited reign of military nile, un
til the next regular election, to the
passage of the Georgia Bill in the
shape it passed the Senate, originally.
OCMULGEE AND NORTH GEORGIA
RAILROAD.
We c’Wl the attention of our Butts,
Jasper and Newton friends to the
letter in this issue, taken from a
Telegraph and Messenger from the
pen of Jerry Cowles. Mr. Cowles
will be remembered*as the great Rail
road man of several years back. lie
has doubtless projected and assisted
in organizing and building more
Railroads than any man in the State.
Some of the roads projected by Mr.
Cowles, have proven to be the most
important and useful in the State.
None, however, are more so than the
one now proposed to be built. The
Ocmulgee and North Georgia Road
is intended to run from Macon up
the west bank of the Ocmulgee river
to a point near Ward’s Ferry, where
it will cross the river; run by Indian
Springs and from thence to the
Northern line of Georgia by way of
Covington, Georgia. The road is in
tended to pass out of the Northern line
of Georgia, either at Rabun or Iligh-
would give it a central location, and
dovelope a rich country, which has
heretofore been deprived of railroad
facilities. Then, if according to the
present design of parties interested,
the road should be extended on to
Cincinnati by way of Knoxville,
Tennessee, it will be much the short
est and the most expeditious route
from the great West to the Seaboard.
Thus it will become a road of nation
al as well as sectional importance.
But aside from the question of Na
tional importance, the fact that it
developes the vast resources of sever
al of the finest and most populous
counties in the State, by giving them
a ready market for their produce,
their vast gold, copper and coal
mines—and carries to their very
doors the great Atlantic ports is a
sufficient argument to induce us to
favor it. We wish its undertakers
God’s speed.
TALBOT COUNTY.
We have just returned from a visit
to Talbot county. Our visit was not
one of pleasure, but of a business
character. The Superior Court oi
Talbot county was in session and
very generally attended by the peo
ple of the county. Talbot is one of
the best counties in middle Georgia ;
famous for its rich lands and intelli
gent, upright and energetic people.
W e saw assembled in the court-house
in Talbotton during court, the most
intelligent, well-behaved and good
looking men it has ever been our for
tune to meet in a country town.
There were no cases of interest tried
up to Thursday morning, the time of
our leaving. A largo number of the
cases were continued under the late
stay resolution of tbo Legislature.
Judge Johnson disposed of quite a
number of new cases. He was pe
cularlv terrible on the defective
declarations, pleas, &c. Judge John
son had previously enjoyed the repu
tation, among the people of Talbot
county, of being the best Judge in
the State, but by his uprightness and
ability, as well as his dispatch of
business, be won new laurels during
this court. The people of Talbot
county are very proud of “ cur
jud< r r ". '
OCMULGEE AND NORTH GEORGIA
RAILROAD.
From Telegraph and Messenger.)
Editors Telegraph and Messenger : In the
issue ot the Telegraph and Messenger of the
23 and instant, appeared a favorable notice of
thi-t projected "new ” scheme. Jhr scheme
is not new. A char'er prepared by the
writ« r wan granted to himself and a Coni da
ny of gentlemen, during the dark and pers j
iious days ot 1834 Some of them niw j
ale* p, “honored deal, ' in the soil of the !
State for whose welfare they devoted their !
energies and lives—Cobb, Cochran, Bloom, j
Ralston and Washington. Os the original !

bei, VVm B Johnson, E. L Strohecker. L. j
N. Whittle, Ch iries Day, Wm. B. Parker, |
O. G. Spark*, Geo. W. Price at.d the under* !
sign< and. It in purposed in this article brief
ly’t) notice the motives and causes which :
led to the obtaining of the charter of this j
road, and to point out the great public lien
elite to be derived from its construction,
and the local advantages to the city of Ma
con and adj icent country. The construc
tion of lateral roads, merging directly and
indireedy into the railway system* of the
Carolina? and Virginia, was intended to
drain the trade of the great West into the
harbors of No folk and Charleston, to the
perpetual injury of Savanah, Brunswick,
aod other Southern harbors.
The main artery from the Northwest,
the State Road, has partially defeated {he
plans of caj itul in the interest of Yirgina
and Carolina seaports, and secure! the
! rapid commercial growth of Savanah. The
| State Road draw’s but a portion of the
Western trade. The products of the Cen
: tral Western States and the trade of Oin
| ciunati and ether internal Western cities
i are yet excluded from the shortest and
1 most practical outlet into the State of Geor
! gia. To draw this immense trade of the
■ Central West, of West Pennsylvania, Vir
; ginia, North Carolina, Eastern Kentucky
and Ten: essee, directly to the heart of Geor
' gia, that it may bed stributed through its
| arterial railway system to Savanah, Bruns*
| wick and its Southern and S< utbwestern
area, is but one of the important objects in
■ the completion of this railway.
The construction of a railroad to the
i northern foundry line of the State is atrend
: ed with difficulties, it is true. Great diffi
, culties occurred in the construction of other
j roads in this State. They have been op*
posed by illiberalitj*, self-interest, the
bribes of monopolies, prejudices, stupid ig
norace. The predictions of financial, ruin
their construction would involve, are now
entertaining to shareholders of stocks above
, par, of semiannual dividends and of secure
investments of trust estates of widows and
orphans. But these difficulties can all be
overcome whether financial or topographi
cal ; it the people ot central and northern
Georgia will impartially look to their in
terests, and act in a spirit worthy of the
immense advantages to accrue to their State
and themselves- It is believed that these
advantages are apparent to the public that
but few will be found to rise out of the dust
of ignorance, self-interest, and prejudice,
to oppose the development of a railway
more important at this time to the permanent
prosperity oj the State than any other with
in her borders: Honorable competition is
always lauduble, and the desire to make
the Atlantic harbors of our own S'-ate com
mercial emporiums in the trade of the
world, in preference to those of more North»
ern States; and to secure the rich prizes of
commercial interchanges with the Western
States to the permanent prosperity of Geor
gia, rather than our sister States, ought to
lie near the heart of every one of her sons
This is an age peculiar to the develop
ment of great thoroughfares of ntermil
transportation, and the prosperity and wel
fare ot a State in the competition of politi
cal and financial empire is now entirely de
pendent upon the development of its inters
nal resources and railway transits, from
and to the markets of the world. The era
of short lines of railway and local competi
tion has gone. The 6mall jealousies of the
past are submerged in the general welfare
of the State, and the arbitrary exactions ot
commerce. In the railway system of the
United States, each State is competing for
tbe shortest and most practical connections
and termini of trans-contiuental railway
communications; from the peninsula of
Fioiida to the great lakes of the Northwest,
ami thence to the Northwestern harbors of
tne Pabific; ad struggling to draw the
trade of China and Japan, via the harbors
of California, and the Pacific railways, to
the Atlantic sea-ports. In this grand
struggle, what State enters the lists with
uutural advantages suberior to Georgia?
Her ports of Brunswick and Savanah are
hundreds of miles nearer St. Louis than
Norfolk and New York. A railway due
west to the Pacific from Central or South
ern Georgia, would be of great and mas
tersal diftirence in shortness than those now
built, or any others which can be built; be
sides being exempt from the avalanches of
snow which render tbe Northern lines tem
porarily useless during part of the whiter
and spring. Are these views chimerical?
Are they as much so as the proposed cone
nection of the city of Savannah wit 1 tbe
Mississippi river, twenty yerrs since ? Yet
Gen. W. VV. Gordon, Absalom Chappell,
and others then regarded as enthusiasts
but who read the the future at that day,
and saw the subsequent prosperity of
gia looming out of her future railway sys
tem. had nothing to defend the truth* of
their views, in comparison to what we can
now anticipate under a liberal, magnani
mous public encouragement to the project
ed railways of our Stats. In these revolu
tionary times, and the passing away of
constitutions and laws of the declining gen
eration, the future position of the South
is oue of great auxiety to her men of patri
otism and statesmanship. Tho future bal
ance of power and empire between the
Nurth and South lies not in this or that
reconstruction act, or constitutional amend
ment, but in tbe development of their nat
ural rescources, wether agricultural, min
eral or commercial, and the*e all depend on
the railway transit to market. Every
Southern man of enlightenment should sus
tain those objects ot publio improvement
whieh will determine the relative future
condition of his country and his posterity.
The public benefits of the construction of
this road have been but partially relered
to. Passing from Certral Georgia along
the West bauk of Oemulgee River, it opens
and develops a rich and fertile country
which in adversitvfur want ( f
railway connection to markups. The till
age of, and increased value fer lands
lying on either side of the line and conse
quent revenues to the State, the develop
ment of the innumerable waser powers of
the Oemu'gee, and streams fiuwmg therein,
as the roak rises with it to its source and
thence passidg through Central-Northern
and developing its mount ins,
rich in iron, coal, copper, gold, raarble,
slaie and other minerals, now beyond
markets aud transportation, as well as the
opening of this region with natural advan>
tages equal to Kentucky in the production
of the ceieals, the grasses and the raising
of mules, cattle and other stock —tbeso ends,
so desirable to be accomplished, ricture to
us the prosperity to our State as well as
citiiens of that section dependent upon the
completion of this enterprise. Ihe opening
( f that section of Northern Georgia with its
health-giving ciimaie tiers unpar illeled in
ducements to capital from abroad, in devel
oping these mines of minerals, in th* erec
tion of foundries, furnaces and r dl ng mill*;
in the manufacture of heavy machinery,
railroad iron, steam engines and all utensils
andpiements of iron and steel; also in the
production of eopper, C'-al, and the various
other metals with which the country is so
replete. In an agricultural view, this line
will develop the garden spot of th- State,
ft is essentially the white man's country,
and is wort&y bis intellect aod activity.
Tue inducements of this sect on to immi
grants fur outnumber those of the West.
I is natural geographical position, mild and
genial climate, rich and productive soil
yielding the great staples of cotton, the
grasses and the cerea's; its orcharls of
fruits, its houndle a s forests of Barwood tirn
ber, its mines of the precious and baser
metals, its leaping cascades and rivers de
■cending from the bases of the B ue Ridge
and Aileganies and forming waterspowers
along the ex ent to their courses, present to
mankind a varied field of industry—from
the skilled artisan of England and France
to the tiller of the soil and wire grower of
Germany.
It is a well kn wn fact that even since
the desolations of the war the lands of
these portions of Northern Georgia, which
are accessible to market by railway connec
tion, have steadily risen in value and are
being rapidly settled by immigration. The
benefits to the State at large, in the acces
sions of inhabitants, and the development
of these unparalleled resources by a railway
connecting with others running almost due
north and terminating at Cincinati, with
communications to all parts of the West,
are apparent upon the mere suggestion.
Southern and Southwestern Georgia are as
much interested in direct and cheap trans
portation of the articles of its consumption,
such as bacon, c rn, flour, agricultural itn*
plements, etc , and these sent direct to them
from Cincinati, without breaking bulk and
and saving commissions, insurances, risks
and numerous profits.
•i\hr local advantages of this road to the
city oi-gAlaoon are mainly suggested in the
preceeumg hints. The termination of a
railroad at a city always increases its pop
ulation, its hotels, its trade, its residence*,
creates new streets arfd avenues and ern
hances the value ot its real pr perty ;
increases manufactures, workshops, ar •
of mechanism, and its revenue, mtuiicip; 1
and otherwise The termination of rWe.
road at Macon connects her directly with the
West and brings freights in bulk. By the
charter of this road the company is required,
where it crosses the Ocmulgee at Macon, to
“erect an open stone bridge sufficient width
and strength to admit of a double track to
said road, and for a (ferriage and r o twny
for teams and passengers free of tolls.”
Should it cross at Second street as contem
plated, the beautiful building sites of East
M aeon would speedily be adorned with res
idences.
The charter requires this road also to run
to or rip»r the Indian Springs, the fountain
of health placed by the hand of the Almigbe
ty in the center of this noble State. It is
presumed that the Legislature, in inserts
ing this requirement, anticipated the day
wheu the State would improve and beauti
ly this gift of Pi%videm-e.
This road is not a competing road with
A dfl*tfefiVftfrdttier roads, especial
ly in Central and Northern Georgia, as it
crosses the lateral roada. The city of A«-
gusta as well as Rome will derive advan=*
tage from its distributions. It runs some#
what paroled wi h it, but easterly through
a section entirely destitute ill railway con
nections receiving no benrtft from, or con
tribating to the revenues of the State road,
and connects with roads leading to Knox
ville. Cincinati, and the Central and West
ern States, thus bringing to the State pro
ducts of that section of fcke West which
never reach us via Chattanooga, and can
not compete with that portion of the West
contributing to tha State road. The State
of Georgia, entirely at her own expense,
built a railroad 138 miles long'frora the
city of Atlanta northwesterly to Chattanoo
ga. Central, Northern, and Northeastern
Georgia have received no benefit from that
road, or assistance whatever from the State.
In her present isolated position, but bold
ing unkown treasures in the bowels of her
mountains and in the fertile soil of her
valleys, and guaranteeing the State, upon
the creation of this projected road, princely
revenues can she not of right demand of
the State, since she has lavished her wealth
upon Northwestern Georgia and extended
a helping hand to every uiber section ihat
in turn t*he shall now lend her end' rse*
nient upon the faith of the priceless treas
ures of her mountains, and upon the garden
spot of her own soil in the bosom of her
future population anc empire?
