This road, from the Western and Atlantic
.jilroad to the Etowah rolling mills, is now
almost complete, having been built by the in-
I'ltigablo industry and enterprise of Major
Cooper, at bis own expense. Whoa wc con
fer the almost incalculable benefit which this
toid will be to the State road directly, and
trough th o State road to the people generally,
;t almost difficult to perceive how it is that the
dainw of Major Cooper have heretofore met
Irith so littic encouragement from the lcgisla-
mrc, in his applications to that body for a loan
of some material aid. Did his application in
; ts consequences, if granted, give the precedent
of a State loan, for private and speculative pur
poses only, we confess that such precedent
night, and would be a deleterious, and perhaps
a dangerous one. But when wc consider the
circumstances under which this application has
iitcn made, and the mnnner of its fate before
the legislature wo can but exclaim, ungrateful.
Far, when we see a man of Major Cooper’s
fortune, character, energy, talent and great
moral worth, invest that all in such an enter
prise in our own State, and even in our coun-
•vaml inidst, in the constructing of iron foun
dries. rolling mills, and merchant mills, for the
manufacturing of iron, nails, implenftnts of
husbandry, and flour of the finest and best
‘ Ut lity__cqual to that of the finest Gen-
ncsee brands, or that made by the Richmond
iad Baltimore mills—thus furnishing labor, at
remunerating prices, to some four or five hun
dred hands, dividing the labor of the country,
tad developing the rich, and heretofore value
less mineral resources of the State; creating a
tome market for every spare vegetable raised
*ithiu reach of these works, and a home market
for the rich harvest of our fertile valleys; re
tching daily, per the State road, large quan
tities of grain, coal, timber and other material,
to be used in the manufacturing and trans
hipping of the products, and shipping daily
lirge quantities of iron, flour, dee., over the
roid to other markets, showing thereby, and
hr his indefatigable industry, sustaining and
proving the capacity of Georgia to maintain
herself in the products of her soil and manufact
uring, iu any market in the world ; not only
thereby greatly enhancing the value of real es-
titein this region of country, but in point of fact
enhancing the value of every foot of land in
Georgia, and furnishing to the State road one
of the main sources of its operation; is it not
matter of astonishment to all enlightened citi-
:eiu o e Georgia, that this matter should be
overlooked by the legislative wisdom of our
State ? Georgia has built a railroad to the
Tennessee river, some twenty miles or more
spou Tennessee soil, for the purpose of facili
tating intcrcouso with the great West—will not
Georgians see to it, that this home enterprise
is sustained and countenanced ? Such public
icacfacto/s as Mnj. Cooper are not every day
to be nut with; such public aids as that under
tie management of the Etowah Manufacturing
Company, are of rare occurrence in any coun
try ; such an opportunity to legislate for the
public good, seldom occurs in Georgia legisla
ture, as that which they have had of building
this short road of some four or five miles from
the State road to the Etowah works. Wheth
er Slaj. Cooper will afford the Stato anoth
er opportunity to do its plain duty, we do not
know. But we feel prepared to say that Major
Cooper, for what he has done for Georgia m his
enterprise, stands well entitled to public es
teem ; and that his name must pass down the
future history of old Georgia as a public bene
factor.— Cartersrille Express, June IG/Zi.

Gentlemen : 7 our Presentment of the last term

before your community and the county at large
and the respect for the good opinion of that coin-
Mons. Belly in Nicaragua.
The New York Herald publishes the text of
the convention negotiated between Costa Rica
and Nicaragua and Mods. Belly, the French
agent. M. Belly has made a contract with
the governments of Costa Rica and Nicaragua
for the construction, by a party of French cap- !

TO THE PUBLIC.
THIS ia to certify that I am well acquainted with
Dr. H. Seger as a Dental Operator, and have no
hesitancy in recommending him to all who may want
work done proficiently, either in Plate work, filling
and cleansing. I have recently examined work
done by him in a large number of the most respects
from my knowledge of a portion of the mem
bers of your Body, I am not prepared to believe
they are disposed to do me a personal or pecuniary
injury, but that it arises from the want of a knowl
edge of the law, and what their duty required of
them as such.
By the publication of said Presentment, I find I
have been presented as a defaulting tax payer for
said county, and the officer has been instructed and
required to issue Execution against me and pro
cede to collect the same.
I now state to you, and without the fear of sue
ecssful contradiction, that I am not a defaulting
tax payer of said county. I admit that from Pro
vidential cause I was not able to attend In person
to render my return to the Tax Receiver, and that
my Agent failed to do so for me, in consequence
of which, the Tax Receiver returned me as a de
faultcr, whereupon a double tax was imposed upon
me. Knowing that the Legislature had passed an
Act in 1856 constituting the Governor and the
Comptroller General a tribunal to correct the er
rors and mistakes of the Tax Collector and Recei
ver, I applied to them for their opinion in the case,
hoping that it would be satisfactory to the officers
and the Grand Jury.
I attended in Houston at the time taxes were re
quired and paid my legal taxes in said county, and
then presented lo the Tax Collector the opinion of
tho Governor of the State, and further requested
him to present the opinion of said Governor to the
said Grand Jury upon his settlement with them,
(as that Rody was inaccessable to me) and I pre
sumed that they would not require a double tax to
be paid, inasmuch as I was a non-resident of the
county, and as such, cot liable to double tax by
said opinion, as well as by the opinion of the Comp
troller General also. The law is positive that non
residents failing to make return of their property
in the county where their plantations are situated
are not required to pay double taxes. The law to
which I refer may be found in Cobb’s Digest, page
1078, an Act passed in 1847. I hope that each
member of said Jury will read it and satisfy him
self that I have been dealt with in this matter oth
erwise than the law directs.
It is true your officer may coerce the illegal tax
from me, from tho want of a legal tribunal to whom
1 can appeal for the proper redress. But I hope
the members of your Body will be magnanimous
enough (if you find, upon a proper examination of
the question, that I have not bad the law adminis
tered to me,) to apply to the Inferior Court of your
county to stop the progress of an Execution ille
gally issued against me. If, however, the members
of your Body determine to do otherwise, then I
must suffer the wrong. But still I have the satis
faction to believe that an impartial community, up-
on examination, will decide the question in my fa
vor, nnd at least be prepared to do jostice to others
in similar cases. Very respectfully, your obedient
servant, PCLASKI S. HOLT.

It is with much gratification that wc call the
attention of our readers to the advertisement
ia another column of the Stockholders’ meet
ing to be held in Albany on Monday, the 2d
day of August, to distribute tho assets and
dose the affairs of this Company. The citi-
icu of Dougherty county, with little aid from
Khers—commencing with serious opposition
from other interests—within twenty-two
months from the time the firstblow was struck,
completed a first class Railroad from Ameri
cas to Albany, BG miles, costing four hundred
ad fifty thousand dollars, met all their con
tracts promptly, sold their Road to the South-
Western Rail Road Company for their stock,
till return the county bonds to Dougherty
county without loss, and if the August divi
dend shall be received before the distribution
of assets; the stock of the Georgia and Florida
L R. Company will be a little above the par
of South-Western R- R. Company stock.
We congratulate our friends and the coun

Lowndes Court House Burnt.
The Court House was discovered to be on
fee at half past two o’clock this morning.—
The dames bad enveloped tho upper story be
fore any effort could be made to arrest their
progress, and tbe building, which was a very
old one, was consumed entire in little more
dun an hour.
The Clerk’s office, containing the permanent
records of tho county, being loented in tho
-‘ccond story, close to where tho fire origina
ted, none of the record books, etc., have been
•seed. The Court papers, dockets, &c., in
the court room, underneath, were all safely
removed.
Owing to the stillness of the morning, and
the protection afforded by the foliage of the
tt&rerons trees, no building on the square
*«s at any time endangered.
The hour, and the circumstance that the fire
erignated in an unoccupied room iu the second
Kory of tho building, givo probability to the
•repression that it was the work of an incendi-
•rj. The Court has adjourned to the Acade-
building.
A Grateful Client.
When Judge Henderson, of Texas, was first
•candidate for office, he visited a frontier coun
ty) in which he was, except by reputation, a
'trtnger. Hearing that a trial for felony
*oold take place in a few days, he determined
10 volunteer for the defense. The prisoner
**’ charged with having stolen a pistol; the
“dense was, “not guilty.” The volunteer
jjrrttsel conducted the case with great ability.
‘ c confused the witness, palavered the court,

A“Wictim” to Tyrannical Laws.
Mr. Robert Russell, who formerly lived iu
Schoharie County, N. Y., now resides in the
city of Albany. Russell appears to be tho vic
tim of unpropitious circumstances. Russell
has an unhappy faculty of doing business con
trary to law. On Tuesday last, Mr. Russell
was arrested for the eleventh time since spring
set in. Wc give his examination :
Well, Russell,” said the magistrate, “you
are here again, I perceive.”
‘Yes, sir. Tbe fact is, ’Squire, I’m a wic-
tim. Blow me, if I care what Bob Russell
docs, lie is sure to wiolate some law or other.
When I came to Albany, I says to myself,
Russell, my boy, we’ll take a hunt to-morrow,
and try them fox hounds. Well, sir, out I
goes, and what do you think? Before I got to
the next corner, Barney Whalen tapped me on
the shoulder, and says,
“ ‘That’s against the law.’
“ ‘ Wliat’s against the law ?’ I replies, and
he says,
“ ‘ Having dogs in tbe street, without muz
zles.’
He accordingly arrested me, and had me
brought to the Police Const. The result of
that piece of fun, was a fine of five dollars.”
“Well, did you do then ?”
*• Listen, and I’ll tell you. I sold the fox
hounds to one of Aunt Put’s friends, for twen
ty dollars. With the proceeds I bought a sow
and five pigs, I took them home, built a pen
in the back yard, and thought all my troubles
were at an end, but I was mistaken. Officer
Bradwcll came upon me the very next morning,
and says,
“ ‘Russell, keeping hogs in the yard, is agin
the law.’
“ I doubted it. This riled officer Bradweli,
who had me arrested again. This time I was
fined five dollars.”
“And what did you do afterwards ?”
“I sold my sow and pigs, and bought a horse
and cart, arid undertook to draw wood. The
eery first load I put on, drew the attention of
Policeman Sickles, who said that driving a
vart, without license, was agin the law. He
arrested me for that offense, which caused me
another fine of five dollars

FAMILY CARRIAGES.
WEED’S SEW ING -MACHINE makes equally as
good work on the finest fabric or on tho heaviest
cloth, on either of which for beauty and durability
it is superior to hand-work. We invite the atten
tion of those who wish machines, to see Weed’s .Ma
chine. They are the best for family use, because a-
dapted to all kinds of work. They are the beat for
manufacturers, because they make such beautiful
and strong work. They are tho best for tailors, be
cause they do better work than his hands.
Extract from a letter written by a gentleman, own-
ingaplantationnear New Orleans. Your two Weed’s
Patent Sewing Machines have been in almost con
stant use since I bought them, and with the best of
practical results. In less than three weeks the two
operators on them finished a complete suit of clothes
for each of mytwohnndred and ten plantation hands,
and I find the time saved in using them one season,
has more than paid their cost.
The Editor of the Zanesville (Ohio) Conrior, says:
There lias never been a Sawing Machine in tbiB city
that has given such unbounded satisfaction to all
who have used it as tbe Weed’s Patent. We have’
examined them, and must confess our admiration
of their simplicity and durability, and can, with per
fect confidence, after an examination of all other Sew-
ing Machines pronounce this to the best, and recom
mend it to our readers, who wish a sewing Machine,
as we are sure it will give them satisfalion.

Coloon in Fluids for the Hair are Dangerous
Professor Wood’s Hair Tonic restores tho color,
not by the nitrate of silver process, but by a re
storation of the healthy functions upon which the
original and natural color of the hair and its moisture,
its gloss, its life, and consequently its original beau
ty depended. Professor Wood, at tho age of thirty-
seven years, was as gray as a man of eighty, and his
hair was dry, thin and dead. Now he has not asingle
grey lock upon his crown, nor is his hair thin or dry,
but soft, pliable and moist as that of a child of five
years. This preparation acts upon the roots, for
after an application, that portion of the hair nearest
the scalp is found restored to the original color,
whatever it was, while the ends of the hair are grey.
Try Wood’s Hair Tonic, and do not apply any oth
er till after you have this. With this resolution you
wilt never linvo occasion to use a hair dye.

T HE Grand Jury, Panel No. 2, for Bibb Superior

generally since his accession to the Bench- And we
claim the credit of perfect sincerity, when we wish

ion of a few days, health and happiuess, and tho full
reward which the high qualities that so pre-eminent

cure to their possessors.
We renew to his Honor, Judge Lamar, the expres
sion of our respect and esteem, and the assurance of
our readiness at all times, to co operate with him
