Wu honestly believe that every person
wise holds stock in the Atlantic and Gulf
Haikdadt, would make money by subscrib
ing something to the Bain bridge, Cnthbert
and Colwmboa Railroad, enough at least to
imUM! it*,being built; for this reason, the
stock of the Atlantic and Qulf Railroad at
tldu ttamis worth about forty cents in the
dutlat, and me do not know that it would
bring that, upon the market; if the Bain
bridge, Cnthbert and Columbus Railroad
v(Us <Oompletetl through to Columbus, the
iueffased travel, and increased amount of
fraught ever the At'autic and Gulf Road,
v»*dd4n our opinion bring the stock at
par—here wo old he a gain of one hundred
and fifty per cent. The stock of the Cen
tral Railroad only brought twenty cents in
tin* dollar, when the road was completed to
Mucfci; mid the road never declared a divi
dend. until after the Southwestern and Mils,
cogre roads were built Now let the stock

Col. R. Bims, Col. W. 0. Fleming aud F.
L. Babbit Esq., left for Savannah on Tues
day. These gentlemen constitute a com
mittee that was appointed at a recent Rail
road meeting, to visit Savannah, and lay
before its citizens, the l>em fits to be derived
by them, by the building of the Bainbridge,
Cuthbert mud Columbus Railroad.
The citizens of Savannah have always
subscribed very liberally to Railroad pro»
j«*cts, and we are satisfied, if they will only
think for a moment of the vast amount of
produce, the building of this road will emp
ty into Savannah, the committee will return
vtfth a handsome subscription.
We trust that not'only the citizens; but
the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad forupany
Wili-le.ud ari*elpieg4*a*»d, as it wdUbe one
fit TtS6~~greatest benaficaries. The Bain
bridge, Cfuthbert and Columbus Railroad
would undoubtedly be the best feeder the
AftattiSc and Gulf Railroad would have,
thus largely increasing the amount of bus
iness of the latter road.
The BMiUbrMfce, Cuthbert* and Cot*
Nnihm Rail Road. *
- Prom all the information we can gather,
the prospects of an early beginning of the
work on the above named road is very
flattering. Maj. Williams the Cbeif En
gineer, was in our city on Tuesday last,
for the purpose of perfecting the necessary
arrangements Ac.,
We do no know the exact amount sub*
scribed, but leared that it will reach S4OO,
000, or* toorej of this amount the Corpora
tion of Bainbridge has Subscribed'eighty
five thousand dollrs. How much has bedii
raisetf by private subscription, we are not
at present prepared fb sas% but think from
tftlty •IWe-or forty thousuud dollars.
We lettrn that it iS tlie intention of the
eneiigetic President of this company to have
lbo Engineer Corps in Cuthbert on the 21st
prbjf. Shoifld hebd able to do so, it will
bespeak an amount of energy, almost nn
parstled in the history of railroads in the
South.' ‘ *
There hr no definite line determined upon
,as yet, but we presume the rout, the least
expensive will be selected, A meeting of
the board of Directors will be held in Cuth
bert, air art early day.

The cotton crop in that section looks
badly. Having been seriously damaged by
the cold weather: corn and oats looks finely.
We met with our old friend Livingston,
the Hotelkeeper, Miller and Postmaster, of
that thiiviug little burgh, who satisfactorily
explained the little “onpleasantness,” that
heretofore occurred between us. His house
whs crowded with guests during Court*
week, who were most luxuriously feasted
by him. He, and his most excellent lady
know how to cater to the hungry. The
Sunday School children had a large
picnic on Friday. Owing to a severe and
sudden illness, we were unable to attend.
From those present, we learn everything
went, *
“Marry as a marriage bell,"
and pleasure ruled, the passing hours. A
large number of pretty ladies graced the
occasion. Gapt. C. G. Campbell, in behalf
of Mrs. Johu 0. Perry presented in a brief

to the children. Col. W. 0. Fleming de
livered a beautiful and appropriate address
to them.
Railroad Meeting in Calhoun
County.
Morgax, Calhoun Countt, Ga., )
May 10th, 1869. f
According to a previous notice, a number
of the citizens of Calhoun county, met at
Morgan to take into consideration the pro
priety of lending their aid and influence
towards the intended Bainbridge, Cnthbert
and Oolumbas Railroad. G. W. Colley,
Esq., was chosen Chairman of the meeting
*and T. J Perry, Secretary.
On motion, Hon. B. F. Bruton,explained
the object of the meeting, in a manner
commensurate with the known ability and
business tact of this gentleman. After,
wards Rev. A. L. Hamilton, D. D. President
of Andrew Female College, was introduced
to the meeting, and in his nsnal eloquent
and practical style, showed the advantages
and importance of building the Bainbridge,
Cnthbert and Colnmbns Railroad, and nrged
most earnestly, the people should have a
unity of sentiment and a determination,
not to let this their only chance for a Rail
road pass. Too much cannot be said of
Dr. Hamilton’s ability as a speaker, bis
untiring energy as a man and devotedness
to any enterprise that will build np the
waste plac?SL..gLf our land and re energize
our people to the love of external and in
ternal improvements. At the close of Dr.
Hamilton’s speech, Hon. W. M. Tumi in, was
introduced to the meeting—and with a vim
and energy that is ever his characteristic,
made a speech that- gave all present Lhe
raikoad fever and ’inspired every‘one with
a zeal and determination, that makes the
Contemplated enterprise almost a real thing.
At the close of Oapt. Tnmini’s remarks
the books wore opened and a goodly number
of the citizens present subscribed liberally
to 1 he enterprise. \ ~
During the meeting several gentlemen
gave some practical hints and suggestions
appropriate to the occasion.
On motion it was agreed that the pro
ceedings of the meeting be publislied in the
Cuthbert and Buiubridgc papers. The
meeting adjourned to meet in Morgan the
18th, instant.

Gold in Nortubatern Georgia.— . The Air
Line Eagle of the 14th says:
While at Clevelan J last week, wts hhd the
pleasure of meeting Captain Samuel N.
Boa wort by of the Nacoochee mine, and were
shown by him another nugget of gold
washed out of one of his mines a. few days
previous, weighing dwts. It was ob
long and cone-shaped, and one of the
handsomest slugs of the precious metal wc
ever beheld. A’few days before we saw
the Captain, four <rf his hands washed out
in one day, over 400 dwts. the Captain is
using Hydraulic pipes for washing, and is
now investigating the extent of the rich
deposits with a view to opening the veins,
but as long as these deposits continue to
yield as they have done since lie has had
them, no better rninqp could be desired.
A largo proportion of the gold obtained
from these mines, is coarse, from
5 to 40 dwts, and not unfrequently pieces
are found weighing from 200 to 300 dwts.
Captain Bosworth, the Superintendent, is
not only agentfeman of culture, but a prac
tical miner of experience and rare judgment
aud his selection is not only a fortunate for
the company he represents, but also for
our own section in directing attention to
its rich and undeveloped mineral resources.
It gives us pleasure to state that the
agricultural interstsof Early is progressing
finely. From all parts of the county we
learn that crops are looking well, consid*
ering the heavy rains early in the Spring
and the cool weather since. The farmers
are very assiduous in their attention to
business, remaining at home and pushing
ahead with- unpreceeded energy. The
freedraen are also displaying unusual activ
ty on the plantations, and seem to manifest
more interest in farming that at any time .
heretofore. The fact is, we have never
seen a greater effort or determination on
the part of our farmers to make a crop
than they have evinced up to this time* and
if we are blessed with rains at the.. proper
period, w.e predict for old Early a ‘fat tipie’
next year. Therefore we say to- all liafids,
to “git up and dust," and our fertile soil
will amply reward you for your labor.—

What Railroads do for Real Estate. —A
computation, made with great care by
General John H. Sbultze, of Manchester N.
J., and presented by him during the past
wiitter to the Legislature of that State* as
an evidence of the influence of railrroads on
the development of the country, shows that
an advance jn value of improved and unim
proved leads on the Hue of the Raritan and
Deleware Bay road, between Manchster
and long Branch (a distance of a about
twenty-five miles,)*during the five years
immediately succeeding the completion of
said road was $10.195, 500, on $6,824,500,

He reports considerable activity among
the Cubans at Nassau in the shipment of
artillery and war rasteiial. Fifteen Aim*

canister. _
The old blockade running steamer (Jem,
, now known as the San Salvador, of Nas

running betweeu Nassau and Cuba, in the
interest of the insurgents. But faint hopes
were entertained of the success of the rebels,
who were reduced already to a By stem of
bushwhacking warfare, and whose ouly
hope lay in the speedy opening of the
rainy season.

has remained on the ground ever since.
It is estimated that the forthcoming debt
statement will show a decrease of seven

act of Congross, eight hours shall constitute

shall be made on that account.
If no disaster overtakes it, says the
Athens Watchman, we think, from what we
have seen and heard, there will be a fine
wheat crop harvested in Northeast Geor
gia this year. It certainly looks very pro
mising now.
We were shown the other day, says the
Athens Watchman, by Mr. Fain, of White
county, a sample of pure copper in
termixed with pure silver, found in a mine
in Cherokee county, N. C. It was found
imbedded in solid rock. We learn thore is
plenty "more of the same Bort” where that

the time he was shot, but denied having any
knowledge of the party, or parlies, who
did the shooting.
Earthquake. —A distinct but short and
sudden shock of au earthquake was felt in
this city last evening about half-past seven
o’clock. The writer felt it whitle at the

was informed that it was the shock .of an
earth quake and that it had been felt in all
portions of the city.— Macon Telegraph.
