M— 'I .« J- 1 I — l 'll Report of the Superintendent of Pah* * lie Work* From the Brunswick Appeal. We have before ns thg able report pi Col. B. W. Probel, the Superin ten fitynt of Public Works of Georgia, made oft the Ist of July, 1870, from which < we glean a great deal of information, and make copious extracts. He ably reviews the condition of the various raifroads which have received State add, and clearly proves the great advantages derived from the wise pol icy of endorsement adopted by the State. The taxable property along the lines already finished has increased to a very extent, apd along the lines being constructed there is also considerable increase of its taxable value. Upon investigation we find that Hon. Alexander Stephens was the first to in troduce a bill using the credit and money of the State, and if had not netted a dollar above panning expen ses It would have proved a wise invest ment The whole pf North Georgia is no* the most properouß portion of the State, owing almost entirely to the ad vantages of the State aid, i. e. the State Rkilroad. The State next appropriated l/100,- Flint Biverat Bainbridga Although this Road has never paid a single div idend, yet the enhanced valua of the taxable property along its line, has per haps more than compensated the origi nal outlay hy the State. V. The Macon and Brunswick Railroad reoeived the endorsement of the State to the amonnt of SIO,OOO per mile, and is secured by property the cash value, of -which is $lB or $20,000 per mile.— Os thisroadhe says: “Connecting as it does, the great rail road system of the State, with two of the finest harbors and most promising seaports of the South, and offering to the West and Northwest a cheap and expeditious line of travel for their im mense tide of immigration, and, at the same time, an easy ont-let to the At lantic Ocean for their rich and varied products; it presents strong grounds, for hope, that the most sanguine ex pectations of its projectors may be nttt^Ohattan^ogaßail road has received the endorsement of the State to the amount of $192,000, scoured by a lien upon property to the amount of $627,000 cadi value. The South-Georgia and Florida Railroad was finished a few months since, from Thomasvilleto Albany, and has been leased 16 the A..& G. R. R. ThO entire length of the road is 73 miles, and it cost $1,345,1)00. Bonds to the amount of $584,000 were en dorsed by the State, which makes the security apparently ample. Os this road he says: * “Its completion adds but another link to that grand line of railroad, which, beginning in the heart of Flor ida, and passing through the length of Georgia, finally terminates upon the banks of the Onio." The Brunswick & Albany Railroad received State aid in March, 1869, and the only one which encountered strong, united and determined opposition.— This opposition arose, not owing to the danger of the endorsement of the State, but entirely from selfish motives. The whole secret lies in the fact that it will shorten the lines from the cotton belt and all connecting lines at Albany, Eufaula, Montgomery and points be yond, a hundred and more miles to the best seaport along the South-Atlantio coast Os this road Mr. F. speaks in the highest terms: “Upon a recent inspection, I found all that portion completed, in excellent condition. The work is being pushed forward as rapidly as possible, the whole line to the Chattahoochee being under contract When completed, this road will be of vast importance in conveying the trade of Alabama, Mis sissippi, Louisiana and Texas to the sea ports of Georgia; and presenting, as it does, the shortest and most direct route to the sea-board for the trade of the four States just rajßqtioned, there can be no doubt of il| success.” This road receives the endorsement of the the State to the amount of $15,- 000 per mile, and will cost when com pleted and equipped about $30,000 per mile. The Air Line Road was the second to receive State aid, yet it has com pleted only about one section of its road, while other roads have been com pleted and are now running., The Cartersville and Yan Wert Rail road . received endorsement ta the amount $12,500 per mile, and the cost of construction has been about $27,- 000 per mile in bonds. The Dalton and Morgantown Rail road, the Baiubridge and Cutbbert and Columbus Railroad, each art to re ceive the endorsement of the State of $12,500 per mile. ~«*«w.i w i The total amount of endorsement, after all the roads oro completed, ex clusive of the Bainbridge, Cnthbert and Columbus Railroad, will amount to $8,527,000. Os this amount there has been issued $4,016,000. So secure which the State bolds a first-mortgage upon property amounting, in the ag gregate, to $6,207,000, with the statu tory right of taking possession of this property upon the failure of the rail road to meet their engagements. The average rate or endorsement, he says, has been something over SII,OOO per mile, and this amount, ns we have seen, covers one-third of the property offered os security So for from the State being endaugered by an excess. iva rate of endorsement, I have been assured by many experienced railroad men, that there an few railroads, of The Past its Past; Let n* watch the Present and the Future. GBIFFIN, GA., SEPTEMBER 13, 1870. any importance, in- tho conntry, and certainly none in Georgia, that would not bear at mortgage or at least $20,- OQO per mile with perfect security tb the bondholder. An examination into the annual profits arising from these roads, together with the amount of se curity offered by those for which the.. State has already endorted, strength ens the conviction that this estimators not excessive. 'Toffi will •find, also, by the returns made of tho side of these bonds, that their price has been stead ily advancing, aim that the roads find no difficulty in paying them ont to con tractors for local work, at par. During thp past year there has been an in crease of 71 per cent upon the entire property of the State, making an addi tion to our taxable resources of $14,- 449,535, a sum exceeding, by nearly $6,000,000, the whole amount for which the State would be liable did every railroad to which Bhe has loaned her credit prove an utter failure. And we must bear in mind that the value of the railroads built during that is Dot included in the estimate. In looking upon the map we see that the geographical position of Georgia gives her an advantage not enjoyed by any other Atlantic State. Several hundred miles nearer the Valley of the. Mississippi, whose navigable wa tert reach within four hundred miles of her principal seaports, Bhe offers the shortest and cheapest route from the great Northwest to the sea, and has it i her power to gather to herself the whole importing and exporting trade of all that vast region. Aglance at the present condition of affairs shows us that Florida, Alabama andt Mississippi are each steadily push ing their railroad enterprises. These enterprises will surely build up and; develop the resources of those States, whiob, after all, must be, in a great measure, tributary to Georgia. The reason is obvious. The necessities of trade require that (he great staples of the South be brought into market with as lit tle delay as possible. The seaports of those States lie upon the Gulf of Mexi co, where long calms and the dangers of the "Florida Reefs,” make transpor tation by sailing vessels tedious and ex pensive, and with steamers differing only in a less degree. In coming from, and going to Europe they would be compelled to coal at Key West or Ha vana, or else accept the alternative, of occupying the major portion of their carrying capacity with the fuel neces sary for so long a voyage. Hence, the tendency of trade to the Atlantic Coast. From tho Helen* (Monteak) Herald. Sketeh by a Passenger, Corbine, Utah, Aug. 6, 1870. Messrs. Sparks <t- McPherson — Dear Sirs : I arrived here last night well and with all my greenbacks. I presume that my telegram from Snske River caused, some little excitement in Helena. I gave the same particulars of the robbery of our coach to the op erator, who, I fancy, forward them sim ultaneously with my private dispatch. I will give you a detail of What I saw and heard : Nothing apeoial occurred on the trip until the second day out, when ft be gan to be vaguely whispered at the several stations that we would proba bly be attacked at Pleasant Valley.— Tne reasons were, that twenty or thir ty head of horses and mulew had been stolen the previous Gay, and that three horsemen had been driven off by Kir kendall’s men while prowling about their camp. Reaching Plesant Valley about 9 o clock,, on Thursday evening, I saw indications of some anxiety on the part of the driver and guard— both of whom wore armed with shot guns and revolvers. We, passed tbe first station south of Pleasant Valley safely, but it was between this and the next that we expected the fun. Lieu tenant Hamilton, of Fort Ellis, was with me, and the three Chinamen. I only had one weapon of defense. We were all now watchful, and as the coach ascended from the bed of Dry Creek, thiß is what caught our ears: Click click 1 click click 1 “Halt 1” and like an apparition three road agents sprang from the rocks a few feet from £he coach. One drew his Henry rifle on the leaders, the next on the driver, and the third paid his compliments to the lieutenant and mvself by placing the muzzle of his needle-gun in rather uncomfortable proximity to our ears, Itna, os the driver pithily remarked, “the mnzzles df them rifles appeared as large as a nine-inch stovepipe.” I instantly seized my “navy,” but a touch of cantion from Hamilton advisedjpa tience. Not knowing what the issue of the affair might be, I concealed my in the cushion of my seat by - catting a hole in the leather. My com'- panion had previously placed his in the band of his drawers. The Chinamen had by this time awoke, and began their gibberish. I si lenced them, and then noted the prog ress of affairs outside. The drive put on the brake tbe moment they chal lenged him. He asked what they wanted. . - " “Tho treasure boxes,” said they. “All right!” said the driver; “hire they are,” and threw ont the light one (from Virginia City I believe.) “Yon have another of these fish?” said the leader. “Yes,” was the reply. “Throw it ont was the command. This was done, and steping aside, be picked np an axe and began chop ping the light one open. It took him full fifteen minutes, and hard work at that. - He emptied its contents. “There's nothing in that d—d box,” he said, evidently much enraged. Hu next attacked the Helena box, wltich contained abont six thousand dollars, T believe. He remarked to the driver, during the progress of opening the boxus, that lie was sorry to detain us so long, but it oould not bo helped; that these things would ocour in tho beet of regulated families. | “Are there any passengers aboard?” 71* , \*r \ V =r—■-«; lie. said, when he got through with the “Yes,” said the driver, “throe China men and two, white JMa.* , “Gfet out John,” in a voice that 5 could hot bc' mistaken. We told the bews t o get odt They were very tjn •Wllling to go, but they finally tnnied' out The leader held his rifle to their bends and demanded their money. With many' pretestations of poverty, they said they had none. One said; “Two dollars hap alee; no more.”— Tkev would not be satisfied, but with -fearful imprecations they told them that they would shoot them where they - stood if they did not disgorge.— One by one he stripped off their tunics and boots, and took what they had. The third and last who had the lar gsst-amount of money ($3,700,) strung around'" his neck or iff a belt, ho han dled very roughly. He took his long knife (about twelve inches,) and rip ped shirt, vest and coat from top to bottom, and the gold fell out with a heavy “thud” to the ground. Having finished, they ordered them into the ooach, and told them to “go on,” much to our relief, indeed, for I fully expect ed that we would be next. We cannot explain their partiality in our favor, but think that,they were afraid to at tempt to force xis out. I could easfiy have killed two of them, but it wbuld have been at the expfeUSe of the life of one of the men on the box, an issue which I did not like to force. The hind curtain being down, none of them could observe our movements; hence I had the “drop” on any one of them except tho nmn who covered the driver, who was a lit tle too far. Thus ended my experience with the road events of Montana, of .whom ! have heard and read so much. I will leave to-night for my destina tion, and hope I will find everything all right It is reported here that the Boise coach was robbed the same night as ours—s2o,6oo lost Yours, very truly, D. A. McPherson. ' ■ »— — -.*■ -*—i Georgia Politics. The New York Tribune thus ham mers away at Georgia polities: “The American Bourbons. The “Democrats” (late repels) of Georgia have constructed a platform, whereon they are organising to carry their State in her approaching election for Con gress and Legislature, as they carried ssSSSs irn^irs? work and wages, while thrice as many are terrified into staying away from the polls, they will, of course, have a large majority. It is, therefore, desirable that the whole people should know on what principle they resume tho control of their State; ana they have-not dis dained to satisfy the rational interest felt in their attitude. State Bights as maintained prior to Secession, is their freed, and the whole of it. They That Gie Democratic party of tho State of Georgia stands upon the prin ciples of the Democratic party of the Union, bringing into special promi nence, as applicable to the .present ex traordinary condition of the country, the unchangeable determination that this is a Union of States, and inde structibility of the States, and of their rights, ana of their equality with oaeh other, is an indispens&le part of our political system. Now, there are yearly as many ex positions as expowtQHMjf State Rights; but, happily, we are not left in doubt tas to the Georgia exegesis. The Hon. A. H. Stephens has, just completed an elaborate and able defense of tha late rebellion under the title of “The War Between the States,” wherein the Geor gian conception of State Rights is un hesitatingly set forth in all its native deformity, and commended to general acceptance as the true American doc trine embodied in the preamble to the Federal Constitution. Mr. Stephens, it is well known, was an original, forcible, influential oppo nent of Secession, deeming it uncalled for by any existing exigency, and. un justified by any RUegea wrong inflicted on the South by thoNcg-th; but, when a majority of the Georgia Convention had voted to secede, went over to secession, andwias thereafter its zealous champip*. was jiq sub mission of thalmomentoUß'/Ordmance” to a popular vote, whether in Georgia or in her five sisters whflCforiued with her the origimd Southern Confederacy, and Mr. Stephens never Remanded any. In each case, were qhoeen who assembled in Convention and voted their State out of the Union, feT defi ance of a known popular majority in most of them; and this (Mr. Stephens maintains) released him and his fellow members of Congress froto their oath of fidelity to the Federal Constitution, justified those Southern officers of the army and navy who (with Gen. Lee) that there was no sufficient rea son for secession, in turning their swords against the Government which had educated, subsisted and hobored them, arid, in fact, dissolved all the ob ligations whereby the citizens and functionaries of the seceded States had previously been botfod to sup port and obey the "Government of the Union. - Mr. Stephens is a very acute and subtile logician, and has probably oon .nriced himself that this is At least the doctrine of the South, and was held by hhriwhile a Whig ; beforo he took the downward road through Sham Demoo- i racy, Into treahbn and overt rebellion. In reply to«ur statement that he ac cords to 100,000 persons, composing which he denies to tan times that num ber forming a like majority of tbo peo ge 6f southern New York, bo says, (vol. •I jb* 19) ? wGW “My obriception involves no snob nonsense as that exhibited in liia atata ment of it, touching the rotative popu- lntion of the whole State of Delaware agdffii portion only (beiag a large ma jority, however) of the population of the State of New York. Populations iu tha respect must be looked to and considered in their organized character. The doctrine advocated by me, with all its corollaries, rests upon the fact that Delaware, however .-mall her popnla tito, is a perfectly organized State—is a Sovereign State—an,l as such . is an integral member of onr Federal Re public, and that New York, with lier ever so many more people, is no more. The doctrine is that ours is indeed a Federal Republic—constituted, not of one people in mass, as a single republic is, but composed of a number of separ ate republioe.” Clark & Wilson, CJottoii Factors —AND- Cammission Mercl\ar\ts, NO. 1 STODARD S LOWER RANGE, BAY STHBMT.... .SAVANNAH, OBORO!A, ALL the attention of Cotton Deal er* of Griffin end vicinity, te our EXTRA FAOILI.
