Under the rule adop ed by the Con vention, all resolutions wore to be intro duced in the morning session of the 20 h, the states being called aitd - fussed, the permanent committees began to report. The first being the committee on the Great South ern Pacific Railroad, which will bo found in our columns. As will bo seen, it was adopted unanimous ly, giving perfect satisfaction to all the Southern States. Georgia can compete for the eastern terminus, and her chanecs are good indeed, if wo but man age judiciously. And strange it may be to our readers, yet, nevertheless true, Dawson is within a few miles of the di rect route, and may be in time on the great thoroughfare of the Wost. I need only say that Hon. Nelson Tift was in the Convention and on that committee, and, in his quiet business way, was at work, and Georgia, yes S. W. Ga., was not overlooked in his calculations. The report from tho committee on di rect trade was not such as to meet the Convention, and was being discussed when we left. No doubt but that our renders, many at least, will have seen the acts and do ings of the Convention, ere this appears. Still we think it our duty to call espec ial attention to the great enterprises, .Jtbat have claimed the attention of thi toody, And try to instill into the minds <ol star readers the idea that we are not , Jeatlbat liveth, aud, if we will, will yet :be.ene of the greatest people on earth Our act era I advantages arc of immense import, and only need to be developed, to make us not noly independent again, but to be envied by those of our friends North, who.now have all our money, &o,,.tfci. iiinoagh of this i.et us say a word about the places wc have passed, that had been visited by us before, which will perhaps he of interest to t he “Dawson Vo'unteer?,* if no cnc else. After travelling all nigbf, on a crowded, -se-eoud class sieepiu g-car, (which W 6 respectfully recommend to be put on the rolired list,) and failing to got muoh sleep, wo heard the name of Mumfordsvillf, and on enquiry, found we would soon he at that noted little Kentucky village. Hastily wo dressed and got in position to see tho Iron Bridge, the forts and breastworks, that iho Southern troops capture 1, with near 5,000 prisoners. We enjoyed the scenery, and “though jihort” the visit, much better than we did os former occasion. The mode of transportation was more agreeable and pleasant, and the breakfast we bad at Bardstown Junction was a little mote palatable than tbat give to us by Gin. Braggs Commissaiies, and though it was raining, still it did not compare with tbat night when in line of battle in front of Mumfordsville. We had a North Wester to come, and nearly blow away onr well worn blankets, and then the soldiers friend, thatetieketh closer than a brother “grey-back,” had all departed, and instead of bearing the command, fall in” (terrible words in those days,) it was “all aboard,” which sounded much more pleasent to our ears. Though we were travelling with some distin guished characters iu those days, yea, the bravest of the brave, we must say that our present companions and the ac commodations afforded, made us enjoy >.our second trip to Kentucky much mure 4ban the first. Many places wc passed that would be recollected by the sth Ga. Regiment, but will not name them. jU is not pleasant to write about them, .and surety would bring to the minds of .the boys, the sufferings they bore for the last cause. Strange, yet true, one of the boys ia blue, that chased us out of Ken incky, and ourself, bave -engaged berth in the same state-room on board steamer .for Cincinnati. We hive talked the matter over and bad a gocu tli?e generally, so there is no danger of tL *v:ng to take the back track again, that ft is to we nre not so much alarmed now' as then, and the yankee bad rather make a dollar now than to free a nigger or fight a reb. Owiog to the liberally of the South ern Railroads, wo have travelled thus far over 1100 miles, and have not paid one dolUr, the roads giving to delegates ehoioe of routes to return home. We propose to go from this to New York, and will have to call on our cashier to fool the bills. Our party so far has enjojed fine health, exeept Mr. P., who was sudden ly attached with a fit of asthma, while passing through a tunnel, but am glad to sav, that on seeing day-light, ho was immediately restored to health, but somewhat excited. If not toe much taken up with sight seeing, will write again from New York. New Youk, May 25th, 1860. Making only a short stay in Louis ville, we bougat through tickets to this city, and acted on the principle of the man that selected the largest pair of shoes he could find for his money, but imagine wc came nearer getting tho worth of our money than did he. Find ing the price the same by ali the differ ent routes, we selected the one by Steamer to Cincinnati, thence by the Great Western k Atlantic or Eric Rail Road, passing through the richest por tion of Ohio, into Pennsylvania, and en tering New York iu the extreme North- Western part of the State, near the Lakes, running up the Susquehaua some distance, and down the banks of tho Dele ware for iqgrc than cue hun dred miles. We found it quite cold in the mountains, seeing frost on the morn ing of tho 23rd, which to ns wss out of place, but not at all surpri iog to the in habitants, who had just commenced to put in their corn, and plant their gardens. This rente, though not the shortest, is by far the most desirable, having a first-class Broad-Gage Railroad, with the Lest of cars, making thirty to forty miles to the hour, and giving to the traveler, the best scenery in the United States. For miles the track ip hewn out of rooks at tho foot of the moun tain, with the Deleware river below you, say sixty to one hundred feat, making one think of dangers, not pleasant. In passing one of those long stretches, one of tho train hands came to one of our party and said to him, “to look out and be would see in the river bciow, an engine ands. urtecn cars tbat had been thrown from the tract a few days be fore.” We locked cut and found it to be true, and our friend showed eviden ces of misgivings and doubt 6 as to his safe arrival in the city. We told him that he need not fret that ho could not help himself, wc were compelled to go through on this roatc and thought it a safe one. In this be aid not agree wi h us, but “said he could not help himself tie l , Lut cm thing was certain, if he ever did get home, he reckoned he could sCiiy there.” Many are the sights to beseon on this route, whieb well repays tho increased distanco. The train oa which wc were, "being a through train,” did not stop at all the station s , but ran through cities of more than five thousand inhabitants without even blowing the whistle. Our roaos at tLc Suutb, will give cnc time to make a horse-swop «t any of the de p ofs. D u t these people up here are all in Little boys and gir’s walk fask Ladies and gents talk fast and walk fasu r - They are decidedly a live people, and u<> everything on the two forty schedule. This is all right, for it is our opinion if they<. ,id I?ot g et around a little lively, that there Wv' maD y of them that would fail of a U v * R {(r * or they are thickly settled and many ' u a house. Strange it is that these farmer..' do not go South, where they cau get | land plenty and cheap. If our people would go about the matter in earnest, ! many people of the North would go to ] Middle and No; them Georgia, which to us would be bettcrThan to have emroi grants from across the water, and the people of that section could send us their negroes to make cotion, and vote at election times. Let Georgia do what e-te may for the furthering of foreign immigration, and she may succeed as to some localities, but for our section, we are more con vinced than ever that tLe negro is the laborer for South-Western Georgia", that is to say, if we expect to coutiuue to raise cotton. It is preposterous to think of any other labor for that bu. incts, then let us see to it, that we hold fast to those we have, aDd get more if we can. So long as white laborers can make a living by working six months in the year, in the rich valley’s of the West, you cannot induce them to go South and iabor the whole twelve- months, which is necessary to maxe, gamer auu send to market, a cotton crop. They could do well at other business or blanches of Agriculture, and would be glad to see them iu our midst, and guar antee kind treatment to all who may come among us, jf he will leave his car. pet bar/ at heme. Here we are in the great city, seeing sights and wonders, and thus far have made good uso of our time, but so many have written about and described thetn all, that we will not burthen our col umns with an attempt to deseiibc what we may nr have seen. Suffice it to 6ay, one could stay hero a month, and go away knowing but little of this, the grpat metropo'U of the wtrli. Xuink of it, New York and its sur roundings has more inhabitants than the whole of the State of Goorgia. That ohronieally dispeptic old lady, Senator Sumner, becoming disturbed in her sleep by tde popular cry about the rise in gold and decline *n trade, pinned her yellow flannel night cap under her ooDtiuually wagging chin, opened her window, end cried cut “War with Kugloiid.” For the Dawson “Journal." Atlanta 31c<lical College—lt« Trustee* and Faculty. Tho attention, doubtless, of the Pro fession throughout the country bus .been arrested by tho attitude as sumed, or tho position taken by the Medical Association of the State in re lation to the Atlanta Medical Cyllego, of the merits of this controversy, we forbear at the present to speak. But may vve not, as the friends, and vindi cators, as far as ablo, of tho interest of the State, of the honor, and dignity of our Profession, in the honor and ad vancement of which is important to all tho people May we not remonstrate, and beg that something should be done to restore the Institution to the confidence of the Profession. We have no suggestion to make, we simply know, nod feel that something should be done to take away all hostility, or all opposition to the usefulness, and success of an Institution for which both the city of Atlanta anil the State have spent their money. We repeat some thing should bo done. What shall be done, we are unable to advise. But somebody is wise enough to advise, will they not do it ? The new Board of Trustees must be ignoran* of tho causes which producod the difficulty, cr controversy between the Faculty, and the old Board of Trustees. They certainly must be ignorant of the means used by the Faculty before tbe Courts, and the Legislature to maintain a po sition which the Trustees declared ille gal and procured !>y fraud, a positron which compelled the Georgia Medical Association to repudiate tl>9 Institu tion, and its Graduates as unworthy of recognition by the Profession of the country. I repeat this new B >ird of Trustees must certainly bo ignorant of the facts which induced the Legisla ture to appoint them and what was expected of them by the Legi laturo and the Profession. They certainly 1 have not read the new amended cliar ! ter. I am not a member of the Georgia Medical Association, but I endorse its lute action in reference to the present Faculty of the Atlanta Medical Col lege. That -the Board of Trustees may not be ignorant of this action, I suggest that the Secretary, or publish ing committee send each member of the hoard a copy of the proceedings as eoon as pub'ished. Muscogee. May 29b, 1860. ' (From the Randcrsville Georgian. [COMMUNICATED ] Georgia, medical Association. April 25. h, 1869. Mr. Ewiob : I send you herewith proceedings of the Medicaf Asocia tion of Ge rgia clipped from the At lanta Constitution, it will bes -en that the meeting was unusually large and interesting, all parts of the State beinj represented. This action in reference to tho Atlanta Medical College is a subject of general remark in this sec tion particularly among the members Os the healing urt who seeru to be gen .erui'v well pleased with the outspoken anu 1 hiph toned position assumed in re lation Jo ?-be long pending difficulties of the CoiJoL’tf question, while outsid ers may think tho denunciations of the conduct of the Atlanta Faculty was severe, the Goctoi.s 6vy that tne Asso ciation could not have ®aid less with out compromising theif ow u dignity and doing injustice to the Profession of Georgia, a large proportion of which arc members of the Association against which body were hurled the graye and insulting imputations of the Atlanta Faculty. The result ol this acti nos the Association will bo*to place the Faculty and its graduates outside the pale of professional honors and recog nition unless they unequivocally with draw the objeotional language; and until the present Faculty repudiates the action of the former one It is af firmed that unless this is done, neither the Profession of GeDrg ; a nor the American Medical Association can, or will recognize them Thus it nppears that the action of the three last sessions 1 of the Medical Association of Georgia ! have rebuked, and finally denounced i the course of the Atlanta Faculty no ! unprofessional and unworthy. The ! Profession in Georgia and elsewhere cannot therefore recognize them with ig-o-;.,,, iim deliberate and repeat ed action of their own central Body. A Physician. On the subject of the Atlanta Med ical College, the following were adopt ed : YS’hereas, on the 3d of October, 18C8, a pamphlet was published by order of the Faculty of the Atlanta Medical College and spread before the Legislature and the country, it, which it was charged that the action of this Association, which repudiated the Atlanta Medical College as a regu lar institution, had in it “un utter ab sence of all the elements of truth,” and that the annual session of this Associ ation ia 1808, was a mating of physi cians assuming to represent the medi cal profession ol the State, and that suuh annual meeting was made up al most entirely o the Dr. Powell clique of the city of Atlanta, and of members of rival schools, and that the whole af fair (Association or meeting) was got ten up and consummated lor the very pur} ose of injuring the Atlanta Medi cal College; that the voice of the State Meclival 8 ciety and of the.pro fession was not heard; that the meet ings of this Association are seldom at teuded by any hut resident physicians and a lew others who have some in terest to advstjce; that the annual ses sion in Augusta, as evinced by tho names and votes, was such u meeting of persons with interests to advunco. j And whereas, *very part Hnd irisin- : ation contained iu the above recital of charges against this Association are ful3e ami wore uttered with a full ’ knowledge at the time of all the facts and circumstances in the ease as they existed theu and now—modified by the fact that the course which this fac ulty were endeavoring to holster up , by pilch falsehood has been condemned by the Legislature and the country — a modification extremely damaging I and condemnatory to them. This As j sociation with but one dissenting voice i at its lust session, place! tho sentence : of condemnation on the conduct of the Faculty in procuring the improper amendmentof the charter giving them selves unusual and unwarranted pow ers. i'et in the face of tho declared opinion of tho medical profession, in the'faee of protest and objection by the Board of Trustees, 'hey wen* on in disregard of the exp -.sed will of die Trustees and the pi., ession and, held a session and conferred the degree of Doctor of Mediciu > upo. 26 young mon whom they kn ;\ • wou and not bo rec. gn zed as regu. x -A ysieiuns by the Georgia Medical A-s relation ; al! of which conduct W, hi the opinion of this Association; de.-ogato-y to- the character of the profess 1 n, and could have been perpetrated only by men more bent on selfish purposes than with a view to elevate the standard ot their profession : T herefore, Resolved, That a proper self respect on the part of this Association requires of the former Faculty of the Atlanta Medical College, a distinct and une equivocal withdrawal ot the objection able language usod in their recent memorial and such withdrawal must bo through the public journals of the State. Report of the Committee on Southern Parifid Railroad. “Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention : Your committee, to whom was refried matters relating to Paoifio railroads respectfully seport the follow ing resolutions : “ Resolved , Tbat in the opinion of this Convention ibe interests of the whole country, especially those of the South ern S ve*, could be served by a main trunk railroad line from San Diego, Cal ifornia, through to Junction river, Col orado, and the Gila, aud along the val ley of the Gila south of that liver to E; Paso on the Rio Grande, and thence to a convenient central point near the 32nd parallel of latitude east of Brass s river in the S ate of Texas, from which maiu trunk feeder roads should load from St. Louis, Cairo, Memphis, Vicksba r g, New Orleans, an! other points, alPcf which feeder roads to have equal rights of con nection with said m» n trunk, while situ ilar feeder roads trom San Francisco, and other points on the Pacific c ast, should have similar equal rights if con n.ctino. ‘ Resolved, That the President of he convention bo requested to forward a copy of this resolution to tho Provident ot the United Jitates, the ,Yiee Presi dent, and Speaker of the 1] use of Rep resentatives, and uqm st them to pres at the same to the respective houses of Congress.” The comuiit'ee, which is composed of representatives from seventeen btates, including three members of Congress, give the following reasons for the report : First—lt is the Shortest line correct ing the Gulf of M xieo and the vuli< y of tbe Mississippi with lie coast ot the Pacific ocean. Second—lt is the line of all those now unoccupied, the most easy of grades ana cheapest of construction per mile. Third—lt pass's through a less in - hospitable aud barren country, and over more fertile and hospitable lands than any other uooccupud route propos.d. Fourth—l ue itue is touched by wa ter transportations at thr e points, afford ing the greatest facilities for construct ion, and consequently hastening and cheapening such construction. Fifth—This hue will open to the world the great mineral resouces of Ar izona and Sonora, abd render more val uable tha great stock raising districts of Texas, New Mexic i and Northern Mex ico, and will thus etj u irivalltd (ratio. Sixth —It will in .bly attract nu merous feeders from lie neighboring Re public of Mexico, and thus not only stimulate enterprise there, but secure to our shipping ports a greater portion of the bullion which now seeks Europe by hazardous conductors and smuggling vissels. 7th. It will open anew cotton-grow ing area in Texas, Now Mexico and Ar iz'na iu lands of the co'.i on-growing belt that were useless for lack of facilities for transportation. Bth. It is well known tb&tsomo roads which would be among the feeder roads r< f rred tu in the resolution have not on ly been jirospected but are already in ac tve course of cccsirnct oa without waiting for government subsidy or en couragement. 9th. List, though not least, the con struction of this route more than all else beside, will cucourago and build up what we feel to be tue great ncces.-i y of the hour, immigration and direct trade wish Europe.

After tho applause, caused by the adoption of the report, had subsided, the committee on ditect trade with Europe reported in favor of the formation of steamship lines Irorn Southern ports, which should be euc mragod by subscrip tion ; that said lines should be patro nized by the pli.nters and merchants cf the South, and approving the schema inaugurated between Norfolk aDd Liv erpool, organized at tho Not folk con vention.

As far as my observation extends—l am sorry to bave to report differently —L do not reco Lot of cv<r having seen cotton as backward during the whole of my ex perience as a plattur, which has been near forty years. Tho plant in nmt places is dwarfed, and has a sickly ap- , pearance, and on many plantations tie grasshoppers have destroyed the stand. I havo sustained considerable damage by their depredations. Tbe spring has been unusually cold and wet-, aud, we still have a continuation of cold nights, which ia very damaging to the cotton plant 1 tLiok my stand of cotton will not be ov r three-fourths The cum pro pect is t.-Lrablo. If the sea on con tinues good a fair crop of corn will be rnudo. It would be premature to form an opitii m of the y ieid of the cotton crop at this season of the year. All experi enced planters know that six weeks of title cotton seasons in the months of July and August will always make a full crop, that ia, of short cotton. It re quires a much longer time to make the tong cotton. Our planters will have to resort to manuring and planting less land, or the South will go by default.

Appointment or Tsiiner.—The ap pointment of the negro Turner to the Post office in Macon, is such an outra geous insult to the peo; le of Georgia that we cannot let it pass without com ment—not that Turni r is by any ineane tho worst iti the party iu Macon. On the contrary, we think he is superior, in every respect, to most of his white associates. But the insu't lies in he deliberate and apparent purpose of the administration to humiliate and degrade the white rare. Here is a eity of ten or twenty thousand population, an old, wealthy and highly intelligent city; a strong rrigiual secesion city; one that gained in the late war a& many laurels for gallantry and steadfast pa riotism as any c mraunby of the same pnjiTation in the entire South. She must there fre be degraded. A negro thrust upon her in a position that compels peisonal contact wiih more citizens than any othgr office. Not on'y the white mao, but the refined and cultivated lady, and the little timid, tender girl, roust all ap proach this black prince a;.d his black assneia es, jnd, wbh ou t humility ask fir their letter? and papers. Thit is the refinement if torture, it is worthy the conception of a Butler—but we were loth to believe that a soldier wou'ds'oop so low.
