HOUSE.
she Governor sent in a message, vetoing the .
ilnvassee railroad bill. He considers the great :
.a-stiou of internal improvement, its system and ;
i-sign, and deciles this bill incompatible with
He quotes a passage from bis message, em- :
'dying bis views on internal improvement of our
vice. The point at issue is, what will be the
■carings of the road and its connections out of the ,
Mate, its effect in developing resources, and its re- j
laii-ios to other Works, in which large interests are
.•solved. He then examines the position of the
ad. aud says : “In a word, no candid mind can
•-sist the conviction that the Hiwassee road will
.aiplete the direct connection between Memphis .
ad Charleston. It is not a Georgia enterprise, but 1
ae will .-how, if this charter be allowed, that
•> rgia Territory is used for the purpose of pro- •
- uug other interests at the expense of her own.” .
i.e design of our system of internal improvement
- give such direction to our railroad enterprizes
' cause freight and travel to pass through
rgia, with a view of building up our own cities
. :- a ports, enhancing the value of oar lands,
id causing our capital to yield a remunerating in
•'■-st. This road will divert to South Carolina
which Georgia now lias. He also notices the
-••alculable injury done to the State road, not only
■ ruining her copper business, but also in other
sitters. It w ill also effect most disastrously oth- ,
railroads in the State, whose aggregate cost has
-.”j upward of slo,nod,ooo. and which have won
rtully increased the wealth and prosperity of
• rgia, and which will be ruinously depreciated
this road. He also notices the arguments
c jgbt forward in its favor. lie says if‘this sec
■<u desires to be possessed of commercial advan
tages, and to have the means of conveying its pro-
I ge to marker, let them propose a road which will
■r.n-vt with Georgia enterprises, and which will
inch Georgia lands and enhance the value of
Georgia capital. He professed to he guided bv
■v doctrine of the “greatest good to the greatest
-amber. ' and did not believe the interests of one
Atttiim should be built up to the injury of the oth
f sections. He was animated by no hostility to
South Carolina. He had the highest respect and
■•dm'ration for her. He did not love South Caroli
' less, but he loved Georgia more. He did not
wish this Legislature to promote her interest at the
sacrifice f our own. Hi- concluding sentence is:
’-'lv motto is, Georgia first, our co-terminus sisters
the /X..r .S taps third, and last, ‘the rest of
isiniind.”’
Mr. Taoi.-srox offered the following resolution,
*hieh was agreed to, viz:
'Vhere >•;, The House of Representatives, by a
vise and liberal policy, have passed the following
A bill to appropriate money to the Hancock
Agricultural Society ; a bill to appropriate three
■'and dollars to the State Agricultural Society :

a-poor voting man from each c uutv, for teach
trs«,o said State, and
Autai.ts, The Senate have, by an unwise and
■tioeral policy, defeated all said’bills :
J t Eef tv J, By the present House of Repre
• -i.auves, that they solemnly protest against the
■ of th<* Senate on said bills, and that we re
■laion 1 to the people of Georgia to abolish the
' ■ or to remodel it so as to render it more efli
ad to send wiser and more liberal men to
said bodr.
b. Thornton, of Muscogee, offered a resolution,
r ttwas adopted, that the thanks of the House
vac.wed to the Hon. Wm. H. Styles for the
; " T s", i .ipartiahtv and liberality which he had
'vi , te d, as presiding officer.
>tyles then uttered the following appropri
eloquent remarks:
■' V ' ';*'•* "f the Haase of Representative*:
■ ■ - taviM s you have thought proper to extend me
-v first moment of our convocation to this
"y 1 JUr yf our separation, in your elevation of me
- thair, in your uniform deference to its de
and in your flattering resolution just passed
■ a> me under a weight of obligation I shall
rbe able to discharge, and which language
'-■id is wholly inadequate to express,
h. iu the exercise of the important functions
" w k'ch you have honored rae, you, with whom
it has been my fortune and mv pleasure to act
have observed any thing in my course as presiding
I “nicer of this House worthy to commend, I beg
| J' ou -to he assured that your approbation of mv
conduct, the higliest reward a public servant can
! recel 'c. affords me a gratification which lias no
parallel, except in tlie satisfaction I enjoy arising
trom the consciousness ofi having faithfully, to the
extent of my poor abilities, endeavored to discharge
j the trust. 6
The course which, in the commencement of the
{session, I felt it my duty to pursue in perfecting
| the organization ot this House, although somewhat
unusual, commended itself to mv mind bv the
; higher consideration which it bestowed upon the
! claira ? °f country over those of party. It was mv
j conscientious conviction that a speaker who would
j manifest a disposition to distribute justice on all
; occasions would be more useful than one of fat
greater abilities, who would hold the chair with no
Higher motive than that of leading his party to
j victory-, and of exhibiting to the vanquished only
. such generosity as the conqueror mav bestow upon
I ’-be conquered. Ibis view of ihe services which
: a speaker may legitimately render to bis friends
| would soon pervert party organization from the
i noble pursuits of truth and justice, into a mere
I contest for power and place, and under milder
: forms infuse the spirit of civil discord into the dis
missions of this House, and eventually throughout
j the State. He who administers this office, for him
| self or his party, may do much for both ; but he
. who aims at the common good, must administer it
for the country and dispense justice to all. Clothe
, (his station with the authority of justice, and what
: may it not do to elevate the views of parties from
themselves to their party. But arm it with the
: mere power of members, and administer it ivith an
••.elusive eye to the interest of parties, and it mav
1 become an engine c>f as much fraud anti corrup
: lion as can be practiced under a government so
free as our own.
And what lias been the effect of the course adopt- ;
|ed upon the legislation of the session? Why the i
: unprecedented fact has been witnessed, that not
“ne strictly party vote has, during the present sit- i
, ting, been recorded in the House. The vote of a ,
member lias failed to afford an index of party as-
-oeiation, and great and agitating questions have
j been discussed in a spirit of calmness and moder-
I atmn, and decided with a view alone to the merits
I t the measure, and the interests of the country.
May ve not hope hat this House, in this regard
may prove a type to pre-figure the future unanimi
•» of this tfiiate; that the same feeling which has ac
uated this body, and by which the spirit of party
Has been made subservient to the interests of the
country, shall in time to come prevail and flourish
; hroughout the length and breadth of Georgia,
i -Shall we, in the alarming crisis in which our
country is now involved, be found still warrin«-
I u>on exploded and insignificant issues? Shall we
i ‘resent the silly spectacle afforded by the inhabi
ants of Pompeii, and be engaged in’ Gladiatorial
combats when the thunder of overhanging Vesu
vius continued to warn for days, that showers of
red-hot lava would soon involve them all, both
friend and foe, in irretrievable ruins? That cloud
which rose but afewyears since on our northeastern
frontier, and which then in the language of Elijah’s
messenger, was no larger than a “Yuan's hand,” has
('■>'v coursed almost the entire Heavens, is daily
becoming larger and blacker, and to prevent its
bursting upon our devoted heads, is “as vain,” our
enemies have the audacity to tell us, “as to attempt
(0 put hoops tin a whirlwind.” Yes, the “ Black
Republicans” in their march South and their ad
vances upon the places of power, have seized the
House of Representatives of the Union, seized the
Speaker's chair, seized the standing Committees,
and iu a few short months will “move Heaven and
Earth” to seize the Presidency. Shall we, mv ;
friends, whether you chose to be designated
‘‘ Americans" or known as Demcnrats, shall we,
by continuing these divisions among ourselves,
permit them io accomplish it, or -hall we defeat
them, a- we may, by forgetting all former party is
sues and coming up as one man and with one voice :
in behalf of the unoffending South?
On this point let us gather wisdom from the re
(“rds of antiquity. In the pages of ancient Greece,
ve learn that Aristides, who had served his conn- .
try nobly, and periled his life bravely upon the
i.dd of Marathon, was a few years after, through
die intrigues of his rivals, ostracised and banished. \
In ilie third year of his exile, his country was !
again invaded by the Persian foe, and Themisto
■ies his rival was in command of ihe small hand
of patriots upon whom rested the defence of Greece. 1
Did Aristides suffer ids antipathy to his rival to ,
interfere with his dutv to his country? Did he j
hesitate to lly to her defense, because be would
thereby subject ldmsalf to the command, and per- ;
haps contribute to the glory of his rival ? No, nev- j
v-r. At midnight, in an open boat, to the immi
nent peril of his life, lie crossed the sea through :
the Persian fleet, and reaching at length the tent
"f Tbemistocles he thus addressed him. “ At
any time, Themistocles, it would become us to j
forget our private dissensions, but at this time es
pecially ; and to enter upon a nobler and more
salutary contention, striving which of ns can eon- ;
tribute most to the preservation of Greece.”
Who is there among us, that does not admire
the noble disinterestedness and sterling patriotism
d such an example? Wiio is there that thinks so
much more of himself, or his partv, than he does I
of his country, that he is unwilling to follow it? :
’* None,” 1 trust, and “none have I offended.” Let
us put iii practice the lesson of wisdom and pa
triotism taught us by the noble Greek. Let us, like
him, consign to oblivion our past dissension, and
for the future let us resolve that the only- rivalry be
tween us shall be, who can contribute most to the |
preservation of our common country.
About to adjourn this House for the last time,
and “ without a day ’ for its re-assembling through- ,
out all the ages of coming time, painful is it to re- |
Uect upon the separation which must ensue, and ;
especially that the majority of ns, in all human ;
probability, will this day part to mtiet no more, j
Gentlemen, it is no easy task to sever the kindly j
ties of friendship, how recently soever they mav
happen to have been formed. As there is no j
“Statute of Limitation” to bar the claims of dis- i
interested friendship, so there is no period, how- j
ever brief, where “congenial spirits meet” tvlien ;
those claims have not commenced to run. With i
me, the acquaintances I have made and the friend- !
ships 1 have formed, during the present session, |
have been among the most agreeable of my life; i
and whatever may betide me, I will, to the’latest
hour of my existence, bold them in pleasing and i
unfading remembrance.
If, gentlemen, destiny now separates us in body, '■
there is one talismamc thought which will, in ■
spirit, ever hind us together in bonds of indtssolu- i
ble union ; that is, the reflection that wherever our |
lot is east, whether we dwell upon the lofty sum
mits of the Blue JBidge, or amid the low lands of •
Okefenokee —whether our homes are fixed on the !
banks of the Chattahoochee, or those of the Savan- {
nah, avc will all be actuated by the same motive, .
all struggling for the accomplishment of the same
end, viz; to advance the interest, protect the rights
and maintain the lumor of Georgia. And now,
under the generous emotions which belong to the
parting hour, may 1 not indulge the hope that if in ,
the collision of heated debate, an occasional spark
of excitement has been struck out, may l not hope
that, like that struck from the flint, it Aviil have
been extinguished in the very moment which gave
it birth—that we shall separate to remember only
what is pleasant, and to forget ail'hat was pain
ful in our recent intercourse. In short, that as re- 1
gards the scenes here passed together, our memo
ries shall each exemplify the appropriate speaking
inscription I once saw upon the face of a sun-dial
in Italv—“ I mark but the hours that shine.”
May every blessing attend you. gentlemen, in
\ our progress through life; and wherever you go,
may you awaken in the breasts of others the same
emotions of friendship and respect you have in
spired in me, and with which I now bid you fare
well, as I perform my last official act and pro
nounce this House “adjourned without delay.”
Mr. Terucnl. of Floyd, offered a resolution
win 'h was adopted, complimenting the Hon. J.
Milledgk, Speaker proton., for his gentlemanly
; course; to which Mr. Milledge responded in a
few brief, earnest remarks, expressive of his grat
itude for tills complimentary notice of him.
Resolutions were also agreed to returning thanks
to the Clerk and assistant Clerk, Messenger and
Doorkeeper. The Messenger, Jesse Osi.in, the
Messengti for years back, presented a speech,
which was read at the desk, and ordered to be en
tered upon the Journal. At about 10 o’clock D.
M. the House adjurnod “sine die. 1 ’ \
SPEECH OF JESSES OS!.IN'.
Gentlemen —Mem Ur* of the Iloun :
I cannot but foe! myself honored by the kind
manner in which you have expressed vour sanction
of my official conduct during the present, and also 1
the four last sessions ot this House, The repeated :
; evidences of your kindness and approval of my
humble effort to serve you, has created in mV
mind a sensation of gratitude and respect, at once j
I coeval with mv existence on earth. I have made in
this House the most friendly acquaintances of my
life, (with a single exception at home). The ctr- i
cumstances of my re-election at the opening of the !
present session lias filled my cup of honor to over- !
flowing. lam proud to say that I have and hold;
one or two evidences of your kindness and gener
osity. which I duly appreciate and consider a? im
perishable mementos of your kindness. Those
mementos shall descend to my posterity, when 1
shall have descended to my grave! They will
keep and esteem them —pleasing proofs ot your
liberality to their departed ancestor. In tak
ing an affectionate leave of you, I fee! more than
commonly solemn. I have passed three score
and two vears. The veil which intervenes be
tween the present and the future is impenetrable to
human vision ; we know not what a day may bring
forth. But if a benign and merciful Providence
should spare me until the next meeting of this
; House, I should be truly glad to meet you all here
as members; and then should you—you know what
I mean —I should be truly 'thankful. Now, in
parting with our beloved Speaker, and each mem
ber, and our worthy' Glerk and his Assistants, re
ceive my parting benediction. And may you each
enjoy prosperity and happiness here, and an eternl
, ty of felicity beyond the Jordan of Death. Fare
: well and farewell!

and John B. Weems, assistant Secretary, together
with the several Clerks, for the able and courteous
discharge of their respective duties, during the
present session; also to Messrs. Wilson and All

After i o clock, P. M., there being no business, |
the evening was occupied in speaking, joking, Ac! j
Judge Cone delivered a very pretty little speech, \
in which he said that the present Legislature was '
the ablest body of men he had ever seen assembled
together. Messrs. Harris, and Billups, and Cof
fee, and others, addressed the Senate in some very
pertinent remarks—Messrs. P. 11. Colquitt, J. li
>V lems, aud J. W. Duncan, Secretary, assistant and
journalising Clerks, with interesting, happy, and ;
appropriate speeches, which were received with
i applause, and rapturously expressed gratification
bv the Senate. The messenger and “doorkeeper ,
also addressed the body very sensibly. The door

gia to send the same Senators again to the Legis
j lature. n
At about 11 o clock, on motion, the Speaker pro
uounefed the Senate adjourned sine die, upon which j
lie gave utterance to the following impressive touch- I
: ing remarks:
MR. BAILV’s CLOSING ADDRESS.
The joint resolution of the Senate and House of
Representatives designates this as the hour for
; the final adjournment of this General Assembly.
This last otlicial act which severs ourrelations here,
perhaps forever, is rendered more difficult for me
j to meet, by the recollections of your repeated kind
ness and forbearance, during an unusually pro
racted, as well as interesting, and I trust it may
| prove useful, session of the Legislature. lam not
unmindful of your resolution approving mv con- ;
duct here, and would be untrue to my own feelings
not to acknowh ■dge the great satisfaction felt for
the opinion thus expressed, of my sincere endeav
ors to discharge the various duties of this Chair,
and will cherish your approval w ith grateful pride
through life. If not deserving, 1 know my efforts ;
have been to aet with as much impartiality as err
ing humanity could do. Our session has been
marked with all the varied scenes of life, from I
pleasure in meeting to the pain of parting. And ;
ii is my good fortune to say that no unkindness
has been entertained for any of ray brother Sena- ;
tors, and on my part I can take the hand of each !
with a parting farewell in the spirit of friendship. I
But while we have rejoiced, we have had our cause i
for mourning at the dispensations of an all-wise j
Providence ; as our hearts are sad while looking ;
to the vacant seats at either end of this capitol, in
which the chosen of the people have been stricken
down in death. Our tears are shed with heavy !
hearts while our eyes turned over there where the j
brightest light of'the Senate long held his place, !
which is now forever extinguished, for the lament- I
<1 Miller is dead. But we have tried to render a j
just tributt* to his memory by engraving his name I
upon Georgia’s tablets, in the county divisidies, to j
remain, I hope, till time shall he no more.
I will not detain you longer, fullv .sympathising !
in your anxiety to return to the comforts and pleas- j
ures of home, where we may see the smiling faces I
and happy hearts of those we love; and we should I
teach those who are to succeed us here to advance
our noble State more than we have done. 1 ex- !
tend to von a long last farewell -Farewell.
The Senate then adjourned. A.

H. G. FARRELL’S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT.
fjjTIIE beautiful and fertile region skirting the
H. desert of Arabia, abounds with rare plants
and odorous woods, whence are procured those aro
matic gums and balsams of which this Liniment is
composed, and by whose stimulating, unctuous and !
penetrating properties it is, when applied, diffused !
through the whole nervous system, allaying the
most intense pain in a few minutes. Try it, when
you will he convinced that no preparation possesses
in so high a degree, its perfect anodyne qualities.
Its action is prompt and effective. It penetrates
the flesh to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, re
storing use to limbs paralysed for years, and where
i the flesh has wasted away, leaving nothing but
skin and bone, excites a healthy action, causing
: new flesh to grow out and till up the shrivelled
; part. It restores the synovial fluid or joint water,
, and this is the reason why it has been so success
ful in diseases of the joints. In affections of the
Spine, Liver, Lungs and Kidneys, this great rente- j
jdv stands before any other ever produced. For i
! ague cake or enlargement of the spleen, it is a spe- I
citie. For any internal inflammation, you will find
it gives great relief. l< has no equal in the world
for Rheumatism —also, cramps, swelling, numb
i uess, weak joints, Spine and Idlest, pains, wounds,
, chilblains, burns, sore throat, bites of insects and
I reptiles, salt rheum, warts, corns, mange, and in
deed nearly all diseases which require an internal
application, and many others, are greatly benefit ted
iby it. It is used externally with great success in
! goitre, or swelled neck, Scrofula or King's Evil,
i Liver Complaint, nervous diseases, &c. For Horses
: or Cattle, it is as effectual as in diseases of man.
: Will cure any case of Sweeney inexistence: also,

The public are cautioned against another coun

TIIE RABUN GAP CHARTER.
Mr. Lewis, of Hancock offered the following re
solution :
Resolved, That his Excellency', the Governor, be
authorized to take such measures as he may deem
necessary, to ascertain whether the Blue’ Ridge
Bail road Company are prosecuting their work in
a manner violative of the intent and spirit of the
charter granted them by this State; and
if ho finds them so prosecuting it, he shall
serve such notice on them, or take such measures
as shall save the State by hersilenee in the matter, j
| from being committed to an acquiescence in the :
! action and proceedings of said company.
An animated discussion was had upon this mat- '
i ter, which resulted in its being laid on the table :
indefinitely.
In his remarks in support of this resolution. Dr. !
Phillips, of Habersham said, that lie had frequent
i conversations with the late Judge Berrien on this ‘
subject; that it was Judge B.'s decided opinion
. i hat the company clearly violated tins charter, and
that if legal proceedings were instituted against i
the company, during his life, he would, without j
any compensation, be willing to defend the suit in
the Supreme Court of the United States, and prove
to the world that there was a palpable violation of
tlie charter.
In this connection, 1 will add that the Governor
has refused to sign the bill incorporating the Hi- !
vvassee Railroad Company. His message, commu- \
nicating his veto, was read in the House yesterday I
I and one hundred and sixty copies ordered to be
printed.
Bv joint resolution, adopted last night in both
j Houses, Hon. Peter Gone, of Bulloch, \V\ R. Poole, |
j of Hart, and P. M. Compton, of Baldwin, were 1
| constituted a committee to lease the Penitentiary.
MONUMENT TO TIIE LATE .11 DUE MERIWETHER.
A joint resolution was adopted in both Houses j
last night, to appropriate from the contingent lund
' a sum of money to erect a monument to the mem- |
1 ory of the late Judge Meriwether, in the same i
! style as the one to the late Mr. Miller.
Congressional.
Washington, March 3.- -Senate. — -Mr. Cass
I made a personal explanation regarding an article j
in to-day’s Int*:lligen<yr, signed J. W. \V., which he i
! attributed to James Watson Webb, it relates to j
t a conversation between Mr. Webb and Lord Clar
| etidon, in which the latter stated that he had no \
: unfriendly feelings toward the United States. This :
, statement was explanatory of one remark made bv
j Lord Clarendon in the House of Lords, ‘•that the j
understanding between the English and French i
governments was perfect in relation to all parts of
| the world,” which was understood as a menace to '
i this country regarding Cuba.
Mr. Cass asked, if Lord Clarendon's language j
' had been misunderstood, why did he not explain
I it in las place iu the House of Lords instead of j
leaving it to be explained in a private letter on the i
subject, which few, perhaps, would ever see or '
hear of.
The bill for the construction of ten sloops-of-war j
was then taken up.
Horse.—Rev. Daniel Waldo the newly elected
■ Chaplain made his appearance and opened the
| session with prayer, and to the satisfaction of the

PLAN OF THE LOTTERY
In the above scheme there are 20,000 Tickets,
I numbered from 1 to 20,000. There are 20(> full
i Prizes, and 800 Approximation Prizes, making in
all 1,000 Prizes.
The numbers, from 1 to 20,000, corresponding j
| with the numbers on the tickets, printed on sep
j arate slips of paper, are rolled up and encircled !
with small tin tubes, and placed in a Glass Wheel, j
The amounts of the different 200 full prizes, sim
ilarly printed and encircled, are placed in another
wheel. After revolving the wheels, a number is
drawn from the wheel of numbers, and at the same
time a prize is drawn from the other wheel, by ;
boys who are blindfolded. The number and the
prize drawn oul arc exhibited to the audience and ;
registered by the Commissioner, the prize being
placed against the number drawn. This operation
is repeated until all the prizes are drawn out. The
