Vithout pretending to any superior •lorn in the premises, it is still our nion that gold will tend upward con erably, and that the price of cotton i touched bottom, though any materi idvance upon present rates is hardly je expected. Fearless Journalism. We were much gratified to see the nd taken by the Albany News on the very ” villainy, *” L’he poor wretch must be encased shame proof mail, if be ever sets foot ain upon his own line of railroad. We trust neither policy o r rod gold, II ever subsidise the democratic presi Georgia, when principle aud every itinct of a southern gentleman are at ike. We give one extract from our igbbour. " We were willing to let these Nor ern gentlemen make a million or two it of the State, to secure this great on i prise, for we felt convinced the Road hen complete would enrich the State ur fold the entire bonded debt for its ustructiou ; but we are not willing to orifice the honor, peace, prosperity the whole people of Georgia for even great a benefit as the ltoad would i; and if we are to be traduced, ma nned, slandered, spit upon, plundered id ruined in exchange for the disinter ted patriotism of adventurers who ake such enormous sacrifices to build Rail ads for us out of our own hard earnings, e are prepared for the sternest oppo lion—even to the extent of making it isafe for such men as Avery to tread ir soil unaccompanied by a body uurd." I lii this connection, we would mention lat old dyed in the wool Democratic Is per the Buinbridge Argus, is having a Itle spat with our esteemed triend [need of the Sav. Republican, ! The former takes the latter to task Iccause its old whiggory, still causes a loluctanc* to the word democrat, while lie Republican is rtsally the biggest lemoerat of them all. Our Savannah knight of thd qdilß those falchion, democrat or no democrat ver flashes in the van when the coun ry is in danger, reiterates its claims to independent journalism, but takes pound even old Andrew Jackson or Tom Benton could not object to. — tlear him. I “ Our great landmark is, and that of ■lie Sotilherm people should be, to stand l>y our rights, and the Democratic par ly occupying that position in the pres ■>nt time, has our best wishes and most licarty co operation, anfP'shull have so long as it stands where it does. There Is nothing in this that ooflicts with jour laalistic independence. It is our ground, Its well as the ground of the Democrat ic party, and should be the standpoint lif every true Southerner, without regard lo pfll’ty. What the people need is inde pendent journalism—a Press that will de lend their rights and tell them the truth, legardless of all parties. Such a posi ■ion the Republican holds to day, and Khali contiuue to hold so long as its fcresent proprietor shall direct its course lon public questions. I This is democracy enough for us, who Lever voted a whig ticket in our liie. Thb B. &. A. R. R. —The first fifty miles of this great railroad enterprise was finished on Monday evening of this week, (the first forty having been built bv Mr. F, A. Babcock, while Superin tendent Os Const! uolion,) under charge of Col. E. Hulberr, indefatigable Superin tendent of the road. Not a halt was made but forward, onward, march I wore bis orders. Tills secures the State aid to the bill, and places at rest what ever hopes that may have been enter tained by its enemies. Three cheers and a tiger for ttie road and all iw friends, and ui»t even a groan nor a sneer for its enemies.— Append. Bainbridge, Cuthbert & Colum bus Railroad. The Rak&ridge Bun. thus replies to our article in answer to its late stric tures. As the Appeal, has for Grte time de viatei from its usual r**,Vs, and answer ed our inUsfroflfßinry, we will also be as magnanimous and answer the Appeal. In the first place we will state that ’.lie Sun is “An Independent Journal,” that we claim the l ight t<» condemn men and measures when necessary, or give them praise if it is due them irrespect ive of parties, and if any one ‘don't like our wav j , they need'nt swing on nut gate ; we are able to paddle our own canoe.” Wo can assure the Appeal, that it was not our intentions to “snub 1 ’ ir, and that we have as little use for It idicafs-n as it has--so far as Blodgett and Farrow are concerned, we say most emphatically that we do not endorse them. Whitely. socially, is a gentleman ; politically, we are opposed to him and every one kn<**r it; but we do say if we are to have a Republican Senator, we think Whitely as good a choice as could have been made Is the Appeal satisfied on that score ? %But what has Democracy or llepubl.i canism got to do with building a rail road ? If the article in the Appeal was intended to condemn the “illustrious trio 11 it sdlades to, why not confine itself to them exclusively ? Why head it “Cambridge Cuthbert and Col umbus Railroad ,” and lead off with an apology for parties not attending the railroad meeting held ra tlwe fcity «f sCuthirert, a-ecl Lnsiiusating at the same time that the “Legislative action was not valid.’ and ' adicaliam would in all probability throw hint Over board in the next election for Directors of the Road—this is indeed strange.— If the Appeal wishes to see the road' completed at an early day, let it come out boldly and openly in favor of it, as it has done heretofore, let the President be who he may. We do not doubt, Bro. Jones, but what you are a strong supporter of the «noad, but such articles as tiie one we al luded to, is calculated to seriously in jure the road tmd give an excuse to those who would like to get out ot pay ing their subscription. We must say it is anew era to us--- simply because tha President of the road is u‘Republican, <and lie is universally pronounced both by Democrats and Re publicans to be the most Conservative Republican, nnd independent member of the Senate) some putties want to sneak out of paying their subscription. The idea is simply ridiculous—what care we for the politics of a man if he has ‘he energy and ability to develop ti e re sources of our country. Who but Bruton, could have procur ed the liberal charter granted to the B. C & C. Railroad ? It originated with him, and he with the assistance of a few members of the House put it through. His polities are the same now as when the parties subscribed to this enterprise. They all certainly knew that at the time In conclusion we will say, that we be lieve Capt Bruton is the only man cor> nccted with the road that can push it through to a speedy completion, and we sincerely trust that we will hear no mi rtf of this mixing np of political and business affairs from any source- To the above we would briefly say, that the article in question was penned, because due notice having been given that a meeting of th ■ stockholders of Randolph County, would be held on a certain day, the absence of all comment upon the causes which led to the fail ure of the said meeting, might ha VO been construed by the enemies of the road, to mean disaffection ou the part of stockholders. Truth, therefore, reqirred that it should be distinctly stated, that the inclemency of the weather together with dissatUuu lion at the vote of Gapt. Bruton upon the senatorial questiou in the Legisla ture, had deterred many from meeting him ut the appointed time, and it was deemed best therefore to have no mcet ing. As to any intention of our people to “ sneak out of paying their subscrip tion's,” the insinuation of the Sun, is un just and gratuitous, as they are ready, the histone of them, to make good every dollar which has beau pledged. That they should give a quasi endorsement to the extreme radicalism of President Bruton, as manifested by his voting for Farrow and Blodgett, could not have been expected from a community who view such opinions with unutterable disgust. Hence the failure to meet him on the appointed day. That we expressd an opinion against the validity of the acts of the General Assembly, and said “ Bruton's radical ism would iu all probability throw him overboard,” we deny, as a reference to our article will prove. So far from this, though witli regard to his rad icalism to be placeb 1 right on the record, we even hiutedthut we tvere no! prepared to say politics alone should disqualify any man from holding a position, if in all other respects be was fitted for the same. Nay, we even stated broadly that we would sustain President Bruton's ad ministration, if he was the choice of the Board at its next annual meeting. And here again we repeat the assertion, and add also, that personally our relations with this gentleman are of the most friendly character. As to our “ coming out boldly and openly for the road,” tile exhortation is unnecessary, as we are' willing to com pare records with the Sun as to our past course with reference to that en ter prise. Bat we do not intend that our Jour nal shall be classed even by implication, with other radical sheets, by its sus taining any member of that party, in any office without the utterance of a dis claimer aginst his political proclivities. Bo much in vindication of our course. Superintendent of the M. & B. R. R. —We are pleased to leurn that the President of this road suoceded in se curing the services of Win. Meßeu, Esq., late the Superintendent of the Wilmington & Manchester R. R. as the Superintendent of the M»c*»n & Brunswick R. R.

[From the Brunswick Appeal, March 18.] Tne Brunswick* and A.bauy Railroad Imbroglio- PCBLIO ImDIGNATUU* MhXTING. Wednesday evening a very nffge num ber ofour citizens of all shades of politi cal opinion, assembled at McO>nS 1 8 Hall, for the purpose of condemning the mis representations of themselves and their community by exaggerated dispatches recently telegraphed, to the troubles ofl the Brunswick and Albany railroad, last w- ek. We are impress ed with the indigtatlon felt by war citi zens at being accused of parrueipafing in the little internecine troubles on the Brunswick and Albany railroad, by-the large attendance r»f those who are sel* dom seen at public gatherings. An oexed will be found ac tion : Wednesday Evening, ) Match 16th. $ Upon the suggestion of Mayor Hab ersham. a large number of citizens as* sembled* for the purpose of considering the recent sensational dispatches as tele* graphed over the country, detrimental to the character of the good order of our community P. M. Nightengale, Esq., was called to the Chair, and T. F. Smith requested to act as Secretary. On taking the Chair, Mr. Nighten gale briefly stated the objects of the meeting. Ex-Mayor Houston moved the ap pointment of a committee of seven to prepare business which was adopted. The Chair appointed as said commit tee, Messrs James Houston, Thomas M. Forman, H. A. KietMsiok, 5. W. Chris, tiun, T. F. Smith, J. F. Rowe, and U. Dait Jr. After retiring a few moments, the committee reported as follows : Whereas, great and manifest injus tice has been done the citizens of Bruns wick, and the people of the entire State, by certain telegraphic reports emana ting from one W. L. Avery, concerning a disturbance which is said to have tak en place on the Brunswick and Albany railroad, on or about the 10th instant. Therefore, Resolved, That the Mayor and Coun cil bo requested to investigate all tbo tacts connected with said alleged dis turbance, and publish the same for the information of the public. Winch was received and unanimous ly adopted. The civil authorities submitted the fob lowing 'stateirieiil, which was read and unanimously endorsed as a true state ment of the troubles My attention having been called to various telegraphic reports which have appeared in the papers concerning a disturbance which is said to have taken place on the Brunswick and Albany railroad on the !oth instant, I deem it, as 1 was Mayor of the city at the time, an act of justice to the citizens of Brunswick and the people of the entire State, to make the following statement of facts; The matter did not, in truth amount to a disturbance. There was no act of violence committed, nor even a serious threat of personal violence to any one. The employes of the t oad only desired Mr. Uuuai t, the chief contractor, to res tore Mr. Babcock, the unnier Superin tendent, who had, as they claimed, been unjustly discharged, or pay the amounts then due them for their services. Mr. Couant said to them that he could not, tinder the circumstances, restore Mr. Babcock, and such bong the cuse, that if they would all go down to Bruns wick that evening they should all be paid off’ on the morrow. There was no hostile demonstration of any kin I what ever made, and I am s .ti-fi -d fruit the information giveu me that there was no desire or inten n on the part of a ny one to injure or molest Mr. Avery, Mi. Couant, or any of them. All came down together, and seemed to bo on very good terms, no one dreaming of any injury being done to any person or to the pioperty of the comp .ny. It was suggested to trie next morning that the (j.satfi c'.ed might possibly endeavor to prevent the train from going up the road, und I immediately wei t among them tor the purpose of asceitain'ng il such was the c ise, and I was informed and assured that they had no intention whatever ol doing so. A few of them who had been drinking were somewhat boisterous, and, while cXi ited, may have remarked that if they were not paid that day uncording to promise they would take possession of the road until they were paid. This, as fur as I. can learn, was the only extremity proposed, and that only by a few drunken men, and that only in the event they should not he paid. No threats of personal vio lence were made, and no violence was intended to be offered to any one. Mr. Avery, it seems, paid off next day, and it was simply the wicked man fleeing and no one pursuing. No dis turbance had taken place when he left, and he knew that it could only take place upon a failure to pay the men as promised. The men were paid oft as promised, and the whole matter ended/ being nothing more, indeed, than a tem pest in a tea pot. Neither Messrs. Avery,C onant, Kimball or liulbcrt, called upon me or any of the civil au thorities, as I am informed, for protec tion for themselves or the property of the company, and for the simple reason that none was needed. As soon, however, us Mr.’Avery could reach a station he telegraphed the news all over the country, that a Serious diffi culty had occurred on the line of the road and that it vvas the work of de signing men in order *-0 prevent the completion of fifty miles bf the road by the ISth inst, so that the endorsement of the State might ho forieited. So far from ttiis being true, these men express ed their willingless and readiness, time alter time, to return and work witlnftit pay until the fifty miles Were completed, if thei e was any danger of losing the endorsement ol the State, and not only they, but every citiz nos Brunswick, would have gone up, if it had been nec essary. The above is a true statement of the facta as they occurred. James Houston, Ex-Mayor City Brunswick. We certify, to the best of our kuowl edge and belief, that the above state ment is true ; nud that no complaint was made to, nor assistance asked of either of us. J. F. Rowe, Ordinary G. 0 Hiram J. Kkao, Sheriff G. G. J. VY. Christian, Sol. Gen. B. G. A G. O'Qood, J ustice of the peace. Mr. Burr Winton offered the follow ing resolution, which was adopted : Resolved, That Mr. F. A. Babcock be requested to furnish for publication a statement of such facts as he may pus sess in regard to the late troubles on the B. and A. R R. Maj U Dart submitted the following resolutions : Resolved, That it is the deliberate con viction -jf this meeting that no blame whatever can bo attach to the conduct of Mr. J. Edwin Uunaiitj with reference to the alleged disturbanee. Farther Resolved , That wo hereby tender Mr. Oouant the warmest expres- ‘ions >. our reg-.rd an i esiernn, and the siiongHst assurance of the appreciation of the important and valuable services rendered us and the people of the State in his efforts to secure the completion of the B. and A. E. R. Which was adopted Mr. Burr Wis tun offered the follow, ing resolution: Resolved, That the acknowledgments of this meeting be tendered Mr. George H Ilazlehurst, President of the M. and B. R, R Company, for t-he great ser vice rendered the citizens of Brunswick in the correcting the fulso impressions created by the telegraphic reports of W. D. Avery. Which was adopted. The statements ot Mr. F. A. cock will be fouud in anothar portion of this paper. % P. M. Nightengale, Chm'n. T. F. Smith, Sec’y. Tn« Georgia Neoro Dzle<?atio.v.— The Baltimore Sth.’s Washington letter of the 16ih says : A delegation of colored mer. from Georgia, representing the colored peo ple of that State, composed of Simeon W, Beaird, chairman; Alfred Keteharn, secretary; T. G. Campbell, Sr., Romu lus Moore, S. M. Allen, VV. H. Ham son, George Wallace, Abraham Colby, J. T. Coster, T. G. Campbell Jr., and John Warren, all of whom are mem bers of the Legislature, except the chairman and secretary, called at the President’s house this morning and had an interview with the President, during Which they ask him to use his influence to defeat the Bingham amendment, and urged him to procure suitable legisla* tion to secure rights to the colored peo ple in that State, as they say they do uot now enjoy them. They also ignore e l till action of the Bryant party, iuform- W the President that he did not repre sent tniuu, and that his course was ob noxious to them. The President listen ed patiently and courteously to their representations, and signiftad his desire that all the colored as well as white peo* pie of of the South should have theTr full rights. An-ilher correspondent gives the following version of the President’s re marks to the party : The President replied : ‘I have not had the bill you speak of yet presented to my consideration by Congress. It passed the House, I understood, by a large majority, a number of Republi cans voting for it, aad .the amendment you speak of was presented, 1 learn by a Republican member. I feel sure that the larger number of the Republican members of the House who voted foi it were sot uwafe of ihe purport of the amendment alluded to by you as you regard it. The bill is- now with the Senate. When it is presented for my consideration I sliall give it that atten ds n I always try to give every sub ject that concerns the welfare of my country. lam exceedingly anxious to have Georgia admitted as a Plate, and do not propose to throw any unneces sary obstacle in the way. As for equal rights and franchises before the law, they will bn guar.nteed in a very few days by a constitmi >nul provision, and 1 feel warranted in assuring you will be carried out to the letter of the law, so far as the Executive is concerned.” Congressional. — Washington , March 21. Ihe Senate is in Executive session on Bradley’s nomination lor the Su preme Bench. The Senate remained in executive session over an hour; confirming Gen. Pleasanton, vice Bailey, Collector of Wall street District, New York, and •toltn P. Bradley Judge of the Supreme Court. Afterwards various petitions Ware presented, A bill was introduced transferring the appointment of iioveuuo Supervisos to the President. A bill distributing arms or their equiv ulent iu ordinance stores' to Soutlieru States, due from 18(51 to 186-5, passed. i he Georgia bill was resumed. Drake’s amendment to suppress dis>* orders and for the assessment of expen ses from the people was cubed up but no action was had. The Senate udj mined. In the House at regular call nothing important. Bills were introduced incorporating the Indian Territory and Gulf Railroad; authorizing wa er guages on the Mis sissippi audits tributaries ; to protec t alluvial lauds and improve naviga tion r latter provides for a reg ular system of observations; also, to promote commerce arid amity between Mexico and the United States, by en couraging citizens of the United States to aid Mexico in developing this coun~ try. A resolution was introduced to the effect that the South and West are en titled to more circulation. The House refused to record the question, referred to the Banking and Currency Committee. The rules were suspended arid a bill appropriating twenty thousand dollars to the Sisters of Mercy of Charleston to rebuild their orphan asylum, passed. The tariff bill was resumed. There will be a session to-night for debate. Committees nothing. The Funding Bill. —A very brief examination of the l anding bill which has passed the Senate, will satisfy any intelligent man of the incapacity of our legislators to do justice to questions of finance. The proposition to allow trie issue of national hank notes for green backs, taken iu connection with the re mainder of the Baukiug Act, is exquis itely absurd. It is more of a joke thaa trio oft otmted resolves of the village so ciety respecting church enterprise : ‘ Resolved, Tiiat i>« proceed at once to build anew- brick church. ‘ Resolved , That the bricks and other material in' the old church be used, as far as they will go, in constructing the uew edifice. '■Resolved, That the congregation wor ship in the old c.lurch until the new one is co.nphited.’ The finance measure will beat this, fur it will stand in all its parts ns fob lows: Be it enacted, That the issue of green backs snail be limited to $356,000,000, which shad be a legal tender for public and private debts. Bed enacted, That national bank notes shall be issue I t<> the amount of S3OO, 000,000, redeemable in the aforesaid greenbacks. Be it enacted, That anew issue of bank notes umy be made to the lull ex tent of tlie authorized greenbacks, the .latter to be withdrawn as the notes am substituted for them. Be it enacted, That any bank failing to redeem any of as issues in green backs on demand shall be wound up in charge of a receiver. Tins i <H»p etes the case. The bank notes are fust made redeemable in green backs. Then the quantify of thels.-uies are doubled and the greenbacks, all with diaivn and cancelled, but the o -ligation to redeem m them remains untouched !
