SURVEYOR. [for the statu sours*. ] Mr. Rowi.axh — Dear Sir:— l am very glad to hear that your city isat last beginning to do •otnethiiig for tho Macon A: Brunswick Rail road, and what surprises me is that nothing has been done sooner, for I don't know any road that will pay as well or is needed so much, but since you have at last got to work (better late than never) I ant with yon hand .iud heart, and bid yon “God speed.” If the city will act its part, 1 can safely promise that the country people will do their share by tak ing stock and working out their subscriptions Ate. The road i« bound to be built, and I hope it will be finished, at least as fur as this neigh borhood, in time for the next erop as we now have to haul our cotton too far, and it is dan gerous, uncertain and expensive to send it down the river I like the course of yonr pa per about this Railroad, and I can't -ee how any Macon man can be against it. Help build 1 the road, we say, and we will give you the trade. This is a bargain that our folks « i'l I stand up to, and your merchants and the rest of your people will make a great deal by it; and, my word for it, yon w ill soon find out that instead of five or six warehouses, you will need ten or a doaen to do the largely increased business that the road will bring to your mar ket. Yours truly, PLANTER. Pulaski county, Dee. 24th, 1858. THE MEETING TO-NIGHT. < ll) Subscription to the Macon A Bruns wick tailload* It will be -een fli.m the call of ids Honor, tin Mayor, publ. bed in another column, that ‘ r. public meeting will lie held at the Court < House to-night to consider the propriety of the I city’s subscribing to the stock of the Macon At Brunswick Railroad : and a- this is a subject , in which every < itize- has a direct interest, it is presumed that the mere announcement of the t+me am] j lace will be sufficient to secure a full attemlane, . This Road being one eminently entitled to the favor of the residents of Ma. on, we look c ' i-k-ntly forward to a recommendation of • !■• liking nut le-s than $250. 00- 1 , wiiich - 1 I not without precedent, since our city ha- here tofore-sibscrilvd liberally to ditierent roads with tl. ■ mo«t gr»tif; - t .

Macon now stands second in general prosperity to no place of the same p0p;.!.,.10n, owing entirely to her admirable railway ,y-t- m ; and the buihTng of the Ma- i A - Brunswick Railroad is only needed to • complete tin -j-tem ami make our city one of the grand internal depots of the country.—- The nece-sity for the road is becoming more a; ps.relit every day, and the chief movers in the matter, having tried State Aid without success (owing to the various other claim- pre- ' seated) are now determined to-rely upon Her cules m> longer, but put tlieirown -hoiddersto the wheel and "pn-h the thing through.” i Let u- _’;m ef.r :t moment at the a.h .mtages , to be accomplished: Who does not see that' : tai- road will render Macon the principal com- , peting point f..r the cotton bu-iness—that it w .! I'i-ing to it a considerable amount of trade and travel which it does not now enjoy—that by competition with other roads it w ill reduce I ' the r: !<■» off: > igl.t to the seaboard, mutually l eneiltting bi tli the merchants and the pi.-in- i ters, by enabling the former to get their goods ' Lere cheaper ami sell them at correspondingly ’ | low prices and realize greater net profits, while j the latter can luy supplies cheaper and sell their cotton Li. I. r. adding just that nrncli i diirercuce to their income - that, it will in crease our receipts of cotton (in the opinion of i men of intelligence and experience in such , ; matters) from 75,000 to 100,000 bales, besides 1 other products from a setion hitbei to inac-I ■ ssililo to us and impenetrated by any mad— j that it commends itself to the planters along' i its route, furnishing them w ith facilities for the . transportr.tion of clivh-ei oji.-and enhancing the . value ot th ir lands .my fold beyond v. hat it will cost to build the mad that the different . industrial interests will p.irtieipat* in these! benefits, ami to our mechanics especially it j will open anew field of labor and furnish con stant employment tv a largely iuerca-ed num ber vt this us. ful ami re-p.ctable portion of our population that, in a word, all classes ' 1 and piofc--mn.s will shine the general good brought about by the construction of this ■ i roud. , Me hope tlu-n that no objection will come !

Brunswick w ill snb -1 scribe to the extent ol her ability—and shall Macon be wanting in generosity ami enter prise? Nol Let this corporation subscription be made at onco; then let liberal cimtribu . tions be obtained from our citizens ami from ’ I tlie planters in the intermediate comities; and in a f < short years this, great project will reach he goul of success, and then city to- gether with the State ■<' ■’>rge u 111 fe -1 its nmg- , ioiutliiem «. • .'

WHAI SHORT P.O ADS DO. : Mn. l.iuioa: A a tax payer <4 Macon, I | cannot help feeling a lively intere-t in all tl at . concerns iicr welfare; ami recognising the , ■ Id ■ mi A l.ruiow i. k ll 'H.ia-one which will re-<b>imd greatly to the advantage of our place, 1 bi g theu-e of your columns to dispo-e of the o.v’y jxuuiibie objretion that can be brought, i 1 against it. 1 have no dmibt that an overw Lelm- | ing majority of our citizens are decidedly in favor of subscribing to the enterprise; ami nearly all of the few person* who may oppose it. base their opposition upon the sole point that even should our citizens and corporation . subscribe liberally to the road, it w ill bo many 1 I years betore it is finished. Ibis objection (made, peilnip*, by a few unthinking persons) is entirely gronndie»s, and a very taw words will siifliee to demolish it; for judging by the , energetic character of the parties interested at both termini an-1 taking into consideration the urgent need of the road to the intermedi ate country, tiiere is every reason to have full ' confidence that the work when once begun i will be pushed rapidly forward to completion. ' . But granting for the sake of argument that it ! , should tie.er be built to Brunswick—which is 1 I an exceedinL'ly improbably siippositi >n —it is ; I easy of demonstration licit wen then it will | prove as profitable as any rord in th.- 5t..’... I and be of material advantage to our city and I country, as well as to Houston, Twiggs. Pu- I laski, and the neighboring counties. 1 hat the , shortest roads sometimes pay best, the folh.w --i: ' paragrrph from the Selma Reporter bear ample testimony. In speaking of the Alabama i and Mississippi Railroad it says: "The num ber ot bales of cotton received by this road this Season, up to the Ist ii’st,, is 24,617 bales; and. we presume, the number this month is. by thi* tiii.v*. over 3*hßi bales. This is prettv > I good for a little road of 30 mile*. Give us a little more of it, we say.” .And so. Mr. Edi tor, it will turn out if this Brunswick Road should never rsaeh more than thirty or liltv miles below Macon: for in that case it will in crease our receipts of cotton at hast 30 or 40,- 000 l ales, which will l-e sold in our city— I proving mutually beneficial to our business ■ men and the planters below, as it will increase the trade o, the former and give to the latter facilities for teaching market now greatly need ed. Besides this staple product, the road will also bring to Maeou. provisions, lumber, wood : ami other commodities of which we stand in ne In a word, this Railroad whether it be con kt dor whether it stops short ot its <les tinntioii, will in eitiier event i>o highly benefi cial and renuinerntivc to individual citizens ns we.l a* to the community at large.

E'HTops:—l notice in the Telegraph ( of the 21st instanc, an artn lu addressed to the t Mn.- or mill Cmin- il of Macon on the subject oi i-iii Toai-liment, suggesting the propriety of at om e withholding their permission to farther en •rofli’hmi-nt. Such n course, Messrs. E<li- I tors, would be not only gross injustice to those I who have not yet been the recipients of those ; favors, but would doubtless lead to expensive ; litigation. The city is the property of the tax paying citizens, many ot whom have eli i joyed for years unmolested, by encroachment, a portion of the city properly. There are still a great many citizens, (who have not vet en croached) who would be pleased to have per mission to extend their front lines tor the sake I of uniformity, as well as to obtain room for , tloweis and shrubbery, which so much add to the beauty and comtort of a Southern hmm-. I 1 am oppose,! to the petitioning process ! obtain that permission. Let the Council pa-s an Ordinance granting permission tor all, to come thuefar and no farther. It is a matter in which every tax payer has a deep interest. Let the lines be so establiseeil that each side of the street will have Its pro-rata share, and so ail will be recipient- who wish to avail teem selves of the invitation. Every tree shrub . and fence can be plm ed with the certainty of 1 . A I' . . , . | being permanent. Every lot so improved will : enhance in value, the city will be at less ex pense in working the streets—her revenue . will he inc. cased by the gen ral improvement ot property.

The Washington correspondent of the Au gusta Constitutionalist thus urges the impor tance to the South of the re-opening of the African sla.e trade: The slave trade and the filibusters now oc cupy the lion’s share of public attention. Ihe signs of the times appear to indicate that the people of tl.e South are coming to the deter mination not to be tiny longer under a Lan from the laws and unjust public opinion. The position of inequality which the people of the So th now occupy in the Union, under exist ing laws upon the subject of slavery and the slave trade, is beginning to be rather galling to Southern | cople. They must have an acceler ated expansion of their peculiar institution, and a large increase of tl.e labor of their sec tion. if they keep pace with the rapidly ex panding ami increasing power of the North.— If ti e people of the South cannot by some means enlarge their borders and strength, they will evidently be cooped up, hemmed in, and crushed out by antagonistic interests and sen timents. Ihe labor ol the North is not only increased by the natural increase of the nu merically preponderant population of the la bor ng classes of that section, but by contin ued i-'i l large accessions from thv laboring classes from all parts of the world; while the hl. 1- of till ■- nitli has only the naiaral in crease of a vastly less number than there is of the native laboring classes at tin- North.— No one can fail to a that the South cannot ■ maintain their present strength with such fearful odds against her. Her labor, ami there by her power i:i the confederacy, must Leiimre rapidly inc: -used, and her area extended or herdoom will one day be sealed. Now, how is tills incr< arc of labor so desirable mid so necessary to be obtained ! From whence is it I to come ? Is it not time for the Southern peo pie to ca<t about them and consider the mat ter serioiisiy .' This increase ot labor is not to l.e obtained tr.-m European or Asiatic States, i The laborers of these countries will not come to the South, if they should do so, they could fiot snppL the labor that is demanded; ami the people of the South do not want any such labor. It would be ruinous. Labor t<> supply the demands of the Sorth can be obtained on ly from Africa: ami the laws of this country prevent the Southern people from <. 1-t:ilnii._ . this labor, branding those «mraged in furnish ing it w ith the opprooimis epithet of "pirate*." and intlieting on them the punishment due to to those guilty of the crime of piracy ! The situation of the people ot the South at this time in the Union, is one of degrading ine quility by the law-'-f the country. It is to be hoped that they will never rest, till this odious discrimination against their interests is re moved. If they do, they will jn-tly deserve whatever ill consequences may follow. The fact tint the people of South Carolina ami | Georgia have lately given the most positive I evidence of sympathy for '• pirates!” an I that 1 they have shown themselves loth to enforce rigidly the laws against “piracy,” is consider- | ed a most favorable indmallon that they are not well s; t -lied with existing laws. We extract the following par.urraph I from an article in a late number of the Bruns wick Herald, mi the Macon A Brunswick Ilail- i read, in reply to a similar article in the Savau f<- I. 1’ .:-bl-• o’.n ’ , nah IGpuim :m : Macon nodoubt knows how to viudlm-.ie the i reason and imal -e <»f her claims f>r State aid, ami to extricate lier-.-if f.- the humiliation I served up lor her bv the I.’eyuldlcan.

A spirit not long since waited on Judge Edmonds and wanted to take a drink through , t an viirtldy m«dium» The Pawtucket Gazette relates the following incident of spiritual com munication which quite exceeds the Judge’s story, and i< almost equal to that about carry - ing the bones: An enthusiastic believer was relating to a i skeptic the spiritual performance to which he J could testify, and among other things said, that on one (»<•:• ision. the spirit of his wife, who had ■ been dead several years, returned to him, and seating her>elt upon his knee, put her arms i around him as much to hi> gratification as she I i used to when living. “Yon do not mean to' say. remarked the >keptic, “that the spirit of • your u ite really embraced and kissed you.”— “No.” not exactly that replied the believer. | “but her spirit t-.ok possession of the bo<!y of I a female medium, ami through her embraced ; and kissed me.” We are not the advocate of Spiritualism in the ahMract. but w hen the weather is as disa greeable as at present we must confess a weak ness which involves the expenditure of -adime. ‘ As we haw no deceased wife but have become proverbial for our love of the fairer jmrtion of creation, we might be induced to permit some sylph-like beauty to embrace us in lieu thereof. Any body’s wife—or any good looking lass, can try the experiment—we stand ready to be mart v red. QL’ILP. High Pure for Slaves.—The Fayetteville (denn.)

Intelligencer is respon sible for the following: •■An ncqnaintauco of ours—Brown—sleeps in the third story of one of our hotels. On: Sunday night, contrary to his abstemious hub- j its. Brown concluded to indulge himself in the j luxury of allot whiskey p:m< h. The liquor bad the effect to set Ids spirits in a glow: Brown argued with himself, arithmetically, if . one whiskey punch will make a man feel good, what will two whiskey pun-lies do t lie took another punch. It was now bedtime, and Brown < ming slightly heavy, started to- I wards his dormitory. As before stated, he roomed in the third story Being a httle hea vier on this occasion than usual.

This room belonged to a gentle ' \ man and lady, but was unoccupied at the time . of Brown's entrance. The room was very : i much like his own. and Brown, not being in timately acquainted with Idnise!:, proceeded to dive't himself of his habiliments am! got in Ito li •1. Just as he had fallen into a sort of ; dreamy, drunken wakefuilnes. he felt a soft hand wandering over his face and pressing his , temples in a very affectionate manner. He leaped with a sudden bound into the midiile of ' i the door, and the lady for such it was. -er. am ' e.l and ran down stairs.

Owens is not only funny himself, (as Ik.lstaff boasted,) luit he is also the can-- that fun is in i ! others. He was playing :m engaement at the Howard Athenienm. in Boston, ln.-t summer. ’ and was despatched by the manager to j.i rl'urin ■ i a week in one of the interior towns of Western Ma-saidieusetts. One day. while soj-.a.rul.ig j there, a plain spoken, good Matured son of the i I soil came up to him. as he was enjoying Li- af | ter breakfast cigar, end addressed him thus. I "I say.
