i' Jfe Jf 'far; Voa have uo doubt seen tUe letter
km~ Hon. John W. H. Underwood, and noted
tUe able mar.n.er in' Thick be discusses his sub-
EyMsr* i-vrv utetv of selling ;pe Western and
Atlaqt*rEs*sSa£. But I .Hope indulge
with Mr. in some
of the details of his policy, £ud agreeiug with
"bUn in others. f
'l Mr. Underwood, in one pUfce, remarks: “The
Western and Atlantic railroad is our property.
Let us sell it, and make the flet proceeds a perma
nent education fund, the of which shall
be appropriated to the purpose of education, and
the money loaned to such-' railroad companies in
Georgia, at six per cent, yer annum, as the legis
lature may determine, tpe State beiDg secured be
vcmd the possibility of loss.” .
" The first part of »**. Underwood s proposition,
« Let us sell it”—meaning the whole ot theroad—
► jg inhere I beg eto take issue with Mr. Unuer-
I wood. For this treason, the people of the State of
I Georgia bare bnfclt the Western and Atlantic rail-
I road with their'money; and as yet bare not re
ceived, for first outlay, the least compensation;
L*. HrA Vue road is now in a condition that will make
it paying property, if properly managed.
1 And now that the road is completed, and a rea
| sonable profit is like to accrue from the earnings of
••the road, are not the people of Georgia in all jus
i* tice entitled to its benefit? The people bare
i weathered the hardships of the fight, and are
I ther not now entitled to a share of the victory ?
- / think so, clearly. If Mr. Underwood had quali
fied his expression a little, and said let us sell one
half the States’ interest m the Western and Atlanta
railroad, 1 would have readily concurred in his
views, for the same good and laudable objects
named in the extract 1 took from his letter. I say
again, they are good and laudable purposes ; and
I am proud to say, attracting the attention of the
first minds of Georgia; and I hope soon to see the
balance coming into line. Money was never ex
pended in a holier or better cause than in the edu
cation of the poor. But by the sale of oue-lialf
the States' interest in the Western and Atlantic rail-
road, ail the objects for which Mr. C. so ably ar
gued will be accomplished. Three million ot dol
lars, prudently managed, will make an education
fund all sufficient, besides having three millions
interest remaining in the Western and Atlanticrail-
But 1 will leave that for the present. Mr.
again says: “The patronage of the
should be withdrawn from the Executive.”
say that it should not V Every day’s ex-
proves to us the fact that all who get the
of the road expect to build up their char-
upon its patronage, or buy a seat in a place
higher and more honorable.
To effect which end, they scruple not to buy
saleable editors, friends reward, and enemies dis
charge.
* Mr. U. says again : “ The road for several
years past has been regarded by politicians as a
public stake to struggle for, and much' intriguing
‘ and management has been publicly charged and
denied, believed by some, doubted by others, and
by many denied. Those charges have been true
or false : if true, no ground should exist for them
in the future, but the cause should be removed.
If false, public officers should be relieved from
the chance of suffering gross injustice at the hands
Os political opponents.”
-Can the facts stated in the above extract be
denied successfully? I assert they cannot. Hut
by the sale of one half the road, its management
will be taken out of the hands of the Executive,
and put under the control of an efficient and re
, sponsible company, whose interest would be per
sonai, and therefore stimulate them to the best
management of the road.
Hgu;i) the economical management consequent
a private company’s taking the control of
the State would no doubt realise a better
from the remaining half interest in the
she now does from the whole under po
management. Os course the legislature
making such a contract, would have to
throw such strictures around the bargain as
would make the State perfectly secure. Gov. Brown
will, at the end of the year, lack more than a hun
dred thousand dollars of paying the lawful inter
est on the amount invested. Taking the past as a
criterion, Gov. B. has paid more money into the
Treasury, for the same length of time, than any
of his predecessors ; which the Governor will no
doubt allow, is not attributable to any railroad sa
gacity of his, or superiority in management, but
merely tothtf simple fact, that he found the road as
trnow is, in good condition; everything to hiS
nnd—he collected the ordinary earnings of the
jL and paid it into the Treasury. Os course the

I Appling, Columbia Co., Ga., Sept. 1358.
■The Superior Court commenced its session here
" Monday, Mb inst., Judge Ilolt presiding. On
Wednesday morning the criminal docket was ta
ken up, State vs. Edmond Whitaker, for the hom-
V icide of John J. Rowland, the Oth day of January,
1858 ; for the prosecution the Attorney General,
Wm. R. McLaws, Esq., and Col. Lochrane; for
the defense, Hon. Alex. 11. Stephens, Miller and
Jackson, B. B. Moore, and L. D. Lallerstedt, Esqs.
/ The counsel concluded to have but one on a side
to speak. Hon. Alex. 11. Stephens for the prisoner,
and Wm. R. McLaws, States’ Attorney. Mr. Ste
phens’ speech was an eloquent appeal to the jury,
but I suppose feeling satisfied from the evidence
of Mr. St urges and Mr. Harris, that the verdict
would be an acquittal, he did not enter fully in
to the evidence aud points of law as he would
have done in a more doubtful case. On the other
hand, the States’ Attorney sifted all the points of
the case to the very bottom. He made a fine
speech, exhibiting much ingenuity and force of
argument.
His Honor, Judge Ilolt, in his charge to the ju
ry, was full and satisfactory to all parties. The
case occupied about a day and a half, and the jury
was out from one to two hours. Their verdict
was involuntary manslaughter in the commission
of an unlawful act, the punishment for which is
confinement in the penitentiary from one to three
years.
The next case taken up and tried was against
Hosea McCarty, for stealing a steer. The prison
er, after confinement in jail for fuur or five
months, was brought into court. He was a man
some five feet ten inches high, rather spare, sal
low complexion, freckled face, red hair and whis
kers, and looked like an idiot. Messrs. Pottle
and Colvard volunteered in the defense. In
evidence it was proven that he had taken the
steer, and when questioned by the commiting
magistrate he acknowledged stealing two. This
caused considerable laughter in the court room.
When caught in Augusta he never denied the
charge, but stated that he had sold a steer to the
plaintiff, and not being able to get his money he
took another in place thereof.
The jury rendered a verdict of acquittal. The
Attornev General then quashed another bill of in
dictment for a like charge. The prisoner was dis
charged from custody, to the satisfaction of all, even
the solicitor and prosecutor.
i »The next case taken up was thq State vs. Elias,
the property of Mr. Robert Bolton, for the murder
of Bob, the*property of Mr. Bird Perry. The case
was one of circumstantial evidence.
For defense, Messrs. Stephens and Toombs.
The jury rendered a verdict of acquittal.
I forgot to mention, in the proper place, that on
Tuesday Messrs. John Milledge, Jr., and J. P. C.
Whitehead, of your city, were admitted to the
bar, after very creditable examinations, conducted
by Messrs. Stephens, Sneed, Lochrane, and Attor
ney General McLaws. They arc both young men
of fine talents, good character and good blood,
and I trust that a useful and honorable career is
before them.
Since writing the above, I learn that ten of the
jury m the Whitaker case, and several members
of the bar, signed a petition to the Judge to make
the sentence as light as possible. He has done so,
and sentenced Whitaker to the Penitentiary for
©ne year. " P.

Augusta, Sept. 14th, 1353.
Shall we project
The fear of creating “a panic” by any public
allusion to the necessity of sanitary measures, has
too often deterred those who may be supposed to
be competent, from endeavoring to enlighten pub
lic opinion upon so grave a subject. And yet it
would seem that m a community as intelligent as
our own, the propriety of measures supposed to
lessen the daDgerof the importation of such a fell
destroyer as yellow fever, might and ought to be
discussed without exciting unpleasant feelings of
any kind whatever. That we are in danger, is ad
mitted bv all; it is a matter of public notoriety,
and the uneasiness of the community cannot be
increased by discussing the propriety of adopting
measures calculated to diminish this danger. The
existing apprehension will, on the contrary, be
much allayed if we can demonstrate the practica
bility of certain means of protection.
It is a well established fact that the yellow fever
poison floats in the atmospheric air, and can there
fore be carried from place to place in any vehicle
capable of holding air. The risk incurred by
breathing the air thus imported from an infected
district, must be proportionate to *he quantity or
intensity of the poison it may contain. If the
poison be largely diluted, or, in other words, if
the air contains only a small quantity of the poi
son, the danger of its inhalation will be corres
pondingly small; but, if on the contrary, the air
be heavily charged with the deleterious agent, a
very small quantity of it introduced into the sys
tem by breathing may prove fatal. It is, therefore,
in the present state of our knowledge, impossible
to determine, a priori, how much or how little of
the infected air may be introduced into a dwelling
or a town with impunity.
Uuder certain circumstances, a comparatively
small quantity of infected air, carried into a healthy
locality, will act like a leaven and contaminate the
whole of its atmosphere. Ilencc it is that the dis
ease is sometimes confined to those only who in
hale the imported air, (of ships, steamers, cars or
even close packages,) whereas in other cases it
spreads through the whole town. We do not know
why it is that this leaven is propagated in some
instances and not in others ; but it is sufficient for
us to know that it has done so in Augusta, and
that it may do so again. It seems that the atmos
phere is sometimes more favorable to its diffusion
than it is at other times.
If it be true, then, as we have endeavored to
show, that the poisoned air may be carried from
place to place, and that it may propagate its infec
tion, the question very naturally presents itself:
Can we not protect ourselves by avoiding the in
troduction or importation into our city of any of
the air circulating in infected districts ? The an
swer must assuredly be in the affirmative, unless it
be argued that the disease may be introduced by
other than atmospheric media.
I am aware that some persons believe that yel
low fever may be communicated by contagion, as
well as by atmospheric importation; that is to say,
that a man who is poisoned in Charleston and
comes here to die of the effects of the dose taken
there, may impart the disease not only to those
who nurse him, but nlso to the air of the house and
city. If such cases have ever occurred, they are
so few and so imperfectly established, that they
have failed to satisfy the great mass of enlighten
ed observers that there is any danger from such a
source ; whereas, there is no difference of opinion
with regard to the danger of atmospheric impor
tation. Even if we admit, for the sake of argu
ment, that there is some danger in housing and
nursing a man who would sicken here after being
poisoned elsewhere, and that it would be very dif
ficult to prevent the occurrence of such cases, this
would certainly be no reason why we should not
prohibit the importation of what is on all hands
acknowledged to be the most common and potent
medium of infection, viz: atmospheric air.
The importation of yellow fever by the medium
of atmospheric air was at one time accomplished
by ships alone, and was then confined to seaports.
Upon the introduction of steamboats the disease
found its way up the streams connected with in
fected ports, and the towns upon the banks of the
Mississippi, at which the steamboats would stop,
begun to experience its ravuges. Since the con
struction of railroads, however, we find the yellow
fever poison no longer confined to seaports and
steamboat rivers, but invading cities and villages
far in the interior, but still never at any point not
j reached by bhip, steamer, or railroad ear coining
! from an infected city. lam yet to learn a solitary in
j stance in which this disease has prevailed epidemi
' ically in any inland town not reached by one of
j the three vehicle, jus.t mentioned; whilst it is 110-
I torious that places only a few miles off the line of
railroad and navigation escape the disease which
I decimates their neighbors.
Situated as is Augusta, then, the infection may be
brought to us by cars and by boats, and we should
see that if they be permitted to come into our cor
porate limits, such measures be taken as will ef
fectually prevent them from bringing any of the
pestiferous air from the infected region. This, I
| believe, may be done by prohibiting any box car
from entering the city and any boat from approach
ing the wharves with open hatches. Merchandise
thus brought upon open trucks and boat deck
could introduce very little poisoned air, especially
as most of the packages are made up at the North
or at points not infected.
I understand that the box cars coming from
Charleston are required to have their doors opened
at or about Aiken, so as to allow them to be ven
tilated in passing from that point to this city. But
these box cars are made air tight, and the ventila
tion effected by opening doors upon the sides is
very imperfect, as any one knows who ever travel
ed in one of them in summer; moreover, the
packages which till them, and often obstruct the
doors themselves, would offer a serious obstacle to
anything like thorough ventilation. But even if
it could be demonstrated that by opening these
side doors the current of air may pass through the
whole car, I would still prohibit them, upon the
general principle that it is exceedingly difficult to
purify a vessel or an apartment in which this poi.
son has been once introduced ; and that thi.s puri
fication cannot, as a general rale, be effected by
any degree of ventilation alone. Ships are not
deemed safe when merely ventilated, and are j
therefore required to undergo a more special pro
cess. An infected apartment or dwelling would
assuredly not be considered as disinfected because
its doors and windows had been left open, and a
breeze had passed through them.
I know that there are some of our citizens who
believe it unnecessary to take any such precau
tions, and that some think the open doors of the
cars a sufficient protection. But if a portion of
the community, however small, are suffering seri
ous apprehensions in consequence of what they
believe to be insufficient measures of protection,
why not satisfy them, at least V The inconve
nience of railroad and steamboat companies should
not deter our authorities from adopting every sug
gestion at all calculated to lessen our liability to
such a pestilence. I).

iioumy Land Frauds in
Tennessee.
Not long since the Commissioner of Pensions,
having discovered that an attempt was being made
to obtain bounty land warrants through his office,
by means of false and forged papers, by some per
son residing at Chattanooga, Tennessee, despatch
ed a special agent to that place, with a view to as
certain who the imposter was and bring him to
justice. It was soon ascertained that he was J.
W. White, a prominent lawyer of Chattanooga,
and a popular Know Nothing'member of the State
Legislature. The charge was examined by United
States Commissioner Lowry and Judge Grant, of
the State Court, who acquitted White of the charge
brought against him.
It will be recollected how exultingly this acquit
tal was trumpeted forth by the Know Nothing or
gans in East Tennessee. The government officials
were too well satisfied of the justice of their cause,
however, to be intimated by White’s position and
influence, or to submit to the extraordinary con
duct of Messrs. Lowry and Grant, acting as they
were as a mere commiting court. They only de
sired a fair and impartial investigation, and that
they seemed determined to have. Accordingly,
White was re-arrested some ten days since, and
taken before Judge Humphreys, of the Uuited
States district court. White’s counsel found the
United States so full}* prepared and fortilied at all
points with the requisite evidence, after the testi
mony of two witnesses for the prosecution was
given, that he earned forward aua entered his re
cognisance in the sum of twenty-five thousand
dollars, with ample security, for White’s appear
ance at the November term of the United States
district court.
It was magnanimous and commendable in the
officers of government engaged in this matter to
adopt extraordinary measures in order that White’s
examination might take place at his own home,
surrounded by his numerous and devoted friends.
Every now and thou we hear of arrests and con
victions for frauds upon the Pension Office, and
feel surprised that these oft repeated demonstra
tions of the certainty of detection and punishment
do not deter others from the commission of simi
lar offenses, and we have almost come to the con
clusion that the peusion and bounty land system
—founded originally in the humanity and benefi
cence of cur government—possesses some peculiar
demoralising tendency.

The Red River Raft.
From statements that have been made in several
journals in various parts of the country, the idea
■ is generally entertained that the government has
abandoned the improvement of the Red river as
an impracticable scheme. This is not the case.
It is true, however, that the Bureau of Topograph
-1 ical Engineers, under the recommendation of Col.
Fuller, the engineer in charge of the work, substi
, tuted the plan of opening the high water channel
through Lake Sodas and the bayous laving East of
1 the raft, and thus effecting a permanent improve
ment of the river, for the almost impossible under
taking of removing the raft itself.
Under this plan the work was commenced and
I successfully carried ou towards completion ; but
the amount appropriated by Congress being en
‘ tirely insufficient for the purpose, further opera
t tious were necessarily suspended at the close of
- the season. At the last session of Congress a
strong effort was made to obtain further means for
carrying ou the plans of the Topographical Bu
’ reau, but owing to the condition of the treasury at
i that time, the effort was unsuccessful.
t There is probably no work of river improve-
I ment which has heretofore received the attention
of the government, more worthy of its considera
-1 tion than the one above referred to. It is not of
purely local character, and we think its further
1 prosecution will not be opposed by the conscien
, tious scruples of those who maintain that all inter
’ nal improvements by the general government are
unconstitutional ana not to be made.
The Red river is, and must be for a long time
i to come, from the want of railroads, and passable
, earth roads in that section of the country, an im
portant military line of communication between
the Mississippi river and the posts in northern
’ Texas and New Mexico. The cost of opening the
l new channel of the river, which will obviate the
r necessity of transhipment, around the raft, of
' troops, military stores, etc., would be but a small
item in comparison to the inconvenience, delay
J and enormous expense entailed upon the Quarter
t Master’s department of the army by the present
t obstruction to the navigation of that river.
t We hope with the revival of business through
out the country, and the flattering prospects of a
constantly increasing treasury, a new appropriu
i tion will be made as early as possible after the re
| assembling of Congress, and that the means al
ready expended will ntft be throtfto away for want
of the very small necessary sum to complete this
5 important work, which, we understand, can be
• readily accomplished in one year, after the neces*
. B&ry amount shall have been provided by the gov
ernment.

evidently an error; for their statement to the Ist of August
showed the receipts to have been only 3.064 bale.*—l4 bales
only had arrived since: this added, would make their re
ceipts 3,078 bales. This amount placed with the other
Honda .Sea Dlano receipt*, say 15,076. will make the Florida
crop 18.154 bales, as reported In the crop table. We make
this correction from facts obtained from reliable oGUitml that
the Florida Bea Island Crop this season Is considerably short

Auguhta, September 8, 1658.
Mr. S. M. King : In compliance with your reguest, 1 take 1
pleasure In reporting my experience in the use of one of your
Shingle Murlmics. My machine D located übout 17 miles be
low Augusta, near the A»ignsta and Savannah Railroad; the
material usediscypress; power, a small portable engine, on
wheels, which can be conveniently moved from place to place
by a pair of mules or horses. The machine works admirably,
fully up to all you claimed for it, and far beyond my expecta
tion. This machine is operated by one white man, (having no
experience In the use of machinery,) and common plantation
negroes. It turns out from 7,000 to 12.000 shingles per day,
(ot ten working hours,) depending entirely upon the supply
ing of wood to the machine. Your ob’t serv’t.
L. HOPKINS.
Augusta, Ga., Sept. 9.1856.
1 have witnessed the operation of the above machine,and
concur fully in the above statements ; and would further
sav that Its simplicity and durability so far surpasses any
thing that I have seen for making shingles, that 1 would have
n«» other at any price, if I could get the one above alluded to.
Tide machine can easily he attached to the common Olu
i Gearing, and worked by anv common plantation hand.
G. f. OGLESBY, Cotton Gin Manufacturer.
Augusta. Ga„September9, 1858.
I have seen Mr. S. M. King’s Shingle Machine “rive” Ift
shingles within 30 seconds, and without hesitation I assert that
if well attended, it will “rive, draw and joint,” In the most
complete manner, 15,000 within 12 hours. It Is the best kind
of machine for the purpose that I have seen in motion.
