Below we give an account of the running each day
up to the present. The weather has been exceedingly
fmc, end the racing generally of unusual interest, with
the exception of yesterday, the four mile day. John
Guidron, who seemed to be quite a favorite with a
number, was withdrawn in consequence of some inju
ry received while training. Considerable disappoint
ment was the result of this failure, as a large concourse
of people attended to see the trial of speed and bottom
between the two.

The Moving Diorama.
We don’t know when we have been more disappoint
ed in an exhibition of any kind, than we were last even
ing at the Theatre, in viewing this splendid exhibition
of Art. There has certainly been some wrong impres
sion with regard to the merit of this performance. The
proprietor proposes remaining a few days longer; those
who have not witnessed i% would do well to do so, as
wc can assure them that they will not be disappointed,
unless favorably, as others have been. The painting is
purely Georgian, and richly merits your encouragement.
D3- General Jesup proposes to the Government to
suffer the Seminole Indians to remain in Florida —in
that portion ofit lying west ofLakc Kissimmee ; which,
the General thinks, would satisfy them. Possibly it 1
will, but we mistake Uncle Sam’s notions if it will sat
isfy him. For further particulars, sec article headed
Florida.
General Scott.
The reported death of this distinguised individual
turns out to be all a hoax; one of the many lies gotten
up to create excitement, probably with no other inten
tion than to satisfy the ceaseless desire for something
new—a morbid appetite that pervades the community
generally. It is a little strange how editors, and others,
suffer themselves so easily gulled by these extravagan
ces ; but the present are hoaxing days, and we should
not allow ourselves to be surprised into believing any
thing however strange, or new, or lamentable, without
it has been several times endorsed. One paper is filled
up with assertions, and the next with contradictions;
neither does the blame rest with the Press; it is the
fault of the age, not of the good people that live in it.—
It is fissionable to say one thing and fncan the direct
opposite, and very unfashionable to speak the truth on
all occasions. When this stern gmless rules, it is with
a rod of iron, and requires the most scrupulous exact
ions ; therefore we should not be Surprised at anything
that is said or done, since it is possible for anything to
become fashionable, either in sayings or doings-and the
General will, no doubt, feel himself infinitely obliged to
her for this hoax, as it has certainly occasioned him
several fine obituaries.
Southern Literary Messenger*
We received yesterday the March number of this
valuable periodical, and have had but time to glance at
its contents. We shall probably give some farther se
lections from it in our next paper ; in the meantime wo
commend it to the perusal of our readers. There is
certainly not a periodical, from Maine to Louisiana, that
better deserves their attention and support.

Mr The following article appeared in the Savannah
Georgian, a short time since, and seems sufficient to
allay the jealousy that has been expressed by a good
number in this section of the Slate, with regard to the
project of turning the Rail Road to Augusta in the stead |
of its original destination—Macon :
* la October 1833, the company began •
their operations at Savannah, and without tiny
cessation, even during the summer and autumn,
they have continued their work. At this day
there are twenty miles of the road finished and
travelled by locomotives. Trie contractor for
laying the superstructure is daily going on, and
having the timber and iron at hand, will com
plete twelve more miles of road by the first day
of June next. Locations have been made, and
contracts entered into, and in great part per
formed, for the grading, to a point 69 miles
from this city. Nearly 40 miles, in addition
to the 20 miles completed, are already graded,
and the grading will be finished for the entire
distance, by or before the first of August next—
that being tlie latest day provided in the con
tracts. Contracts for furnishing the timber so:
superstructure, to a point distant 50 miles from
Savannah have been entered into, and the con
tractors arc steadily in performance of their
engagements. The company has also con
tracted for an additional supply of road iron
—ISOO tons to be delivered between this day
and the first day of June next. This quantify j
of iron will with the iron now on the road, com.
plete 63 miles of road—a recent order has
been given for a further supply of iron, expec
ted to arrive between June and October, to ex
tend ten miles more, or 76 miles from the depot.
From 600 to 1200 laborers, have been and are
at work, under the various contractors, and as
yet no contractor has failed in his engage
ments. From the point 69 miles from Sava
nah, near the North Ogeechee river, the sur
veys have been going on since the middle of
November last; they have extended by differ
ent routes through Burke county, into Jeffer
son, across the Ogeechce and to the high land
on the west of that river—from about 100 to
110 miles from Savanah. These surveys
have been made with great care to enable the
board of directors to determine at what point
on the Ogeechee it will be best to cro s —and
in a few days it is expected that the report of
the chief engineer will he presented, and line
ot road determined. Immediately after tile ;
determination, further contracts for grading
will be offered. The Ogeechee will probably I
be crossed at a point some 5 to 10 miles above J
the dividing line between Jefferson, and the 1
the line of road thence will fie in the neighbor
hood below Saundersville to the Oconee.
The heaviest work an the whole road is the first
mile from the city of Savannah, where is to lie
seen an embankment on low land commencing
of the bight of 28 feet and extending one mile
before it strikes the level. No time has been j
lost, since the beginning of the work, at this
first mile, but, as from the nature of the work,
only a limited number of hands can operate j
on it, there still remains about 4(K)feet of em
bankment to complete it. By the middle of
June next, the entire distance, from the depot
in Savanah, for 32 miles, will be travelled regu
larly bv locomotives, and the engineer in chief
doubts’not, that within this year, there will be
70 miles of the road completed, and 30 more
graded. The engineers in the field are pro
ceeding on regularly with their surveys, and
they expect to designate the precise <rossing
place of the Oconee, by the month of June
next. So much has been accomplished and is
doing by the company; and a small stock
holder is challenged to show as much work
done in the same space of time, by any other
company. The road is to be built to Macon
in good faith as provided for by the charter,
and he who speculates that the company wish
es to build a road to Auguta, speculates against
truth and common sense. The rout pursued
is that first recommended by Col. Cruger in
1833, before the charter was granted. If the
citizens of Burk looking, as from their intelli
gence may be expected, to their interests,
build a road from Waynesboro, to the Central
Rail Road, and if, perchance, the citizens of
Augusta build a road from thcr city to Waynes
boro. there will be a rail road from Savannah to
Augusta of 130 miles in length.
GENERAL SCOTT.
A slip from the office of the Columbus (Ohio)
Statesman, contains the following letter from
Sanduskv city, announcing the arrival of Gen.
Scott on the evening of the sth—a day after
the report of his allodged death.
Sandusky City, March 6th, 1839.
Samuel Medary , Esq. —
Dear Sir.—Last evening Gen. Scott and
suit arrived here. The Canadian General. M’-
Leod, and others of less note, were at Drake’s
Hotel a few moments before his arrival., when
a letter was put into hris (McLeod’s) hands, and
a general scampering ensued. M’Leod was
secreted by on© of our ckbeni until this
morning, when finding pursuit gr6w hot, he
was furnished with a horse and started for Hu
ron. Soon af er, Gen. Scott with his (bur horse
wagon, took the same road, and the report
holds good that he had taken M’Leod also.
Bradley, the late commandant at Port an Plait,
is not yet taken, but Will be# should he continue
in this region, as Scott manifests a full deter
mination to bring these lawless men to justice.
Florida#
The National lute I ger.cer of thelfith inst.
contains a letter of recent date from Gen. Jes
up, in which that officer communicates to the
Government his views in regard to the con
tinuance and probable result of the war in
Florida. The General enters into a detail of
his opinions on the question of Indian emigra
tion, and states his conviction of th* propriety
of the measure, wherever the Indians are press*
ed upon bv the whites, and their lands become
necessary for the purpose of agriculture. He
however draws a linfe of distinction between
such a state of things, and matters as they
now exist in Florida, where, he says, the land
is not wanted, and where a removal will only
effect a translation from one wilderness to an
other. The General does not hesitate to ad
vise that the Seininoles shall be suffered to oc
cupy the Southern portion of the Peninsula of
Florida, and that they be restrained from doing
mischief by threats of inflicting a punishment
in future, which cannot, as he admits, now be
applied. His proposition we give in his own
words
“If I were |*ermittcd, and it is with great
diffidence I venture tct make the suggestion, I
would allow them (the Semiuoles) to remain,
and would assign them the country west of
the Kissimmee, Okee, Chobec, and Panai Okec.
and east of Pease Creek, south to the extreme
of Florida. That would satisfy them; and
they might hold it on the expre s condition
that they should forfeit their right to it, if they
should either commit depredations upon the
white inhabitants, or pass the boundaries as
signed to them without the written permission
of the military commander, or agent.
“ Bv placing an agency and authorizing trad
ing houses on Charlott’s harbor, they could be
soon concentrated, and stationing a competent
military force there, and at Tambu Bay, they
might be readily controlled, and, if necessary,
removed from the country, should they became
troublesome, or fail to fulfil their engagements.
I respectfully recommend the measure to your
consideration and that of the Presidan*, as the
only means *f terminating, immediately, a
most disastrous war, and leaving the troops
disposable for other service. I desire a decis
ion as soon as your convenience will permit, as,
by the middle of April, at farthes, the troops
must be withdrawn from all the posts in the in
terior. to preserve their lives.”
The Indians, it would seem, arc at present
awaiting the result of an answer from Wash
ington. under an assurance from the Comman
der-in-Caief in Florida that his interest should
be exerted in favor of granting them permis
sion to remain.
Trie Intelligencer also contains a letter from
Col. Gadsden, in which he gives a melancoly
picture of the state of affairs in Middle Florida,
where he says things will soon be as bad as in the
Eastern portion of the territory, if an organized
and more effective system be not adopted. In
addition to the foregoing, there is a communi
cation from St. Augustine to a memlicr of Con
gress, in which the proposal to Gen. Jesup is
treated in strong terms of reprehension. The
writer ment ons wth great propriety, as we
think, the probable effect of the Indian version
of the concession, should it lie made after a
three years war, upon the Western tribes of
savages, when, their supplies of buffalo sha 1
have been destroyed, will lie restless for want
of food. 'Fne facts of the Florida war neither
requires nor will they admit of comment ; they
speak in a language stronger than that of w ords,
pnd w 11, we fear, redound only to the disgrace of
tue powerful nation under whose auspices the
hostilities wc re commenced. In connection
witii this subject it may be mentioned that
Lieut. Gen. Hernandez and Major Whitehurst,
immediately from East Florida, have arrived
in Washington. Their visit is believed to
have reference to the measures proposed by
Gen. Jesup.
For the Southern Post
I once fell in company with a gentleman,
w,io.se silvered hairs obviously showed, that he
had numbered many winters. He was a tall
and upright figure, complexion father brown,
and his countenance though grave, was nev
ertheless pleasing. He told many amusing
and interesting tales, and recounted a circum
stance relative himself, which seemed deeply to
affect him.
lie observed, “ In my youthful days I trav
elled much, and in one of my tours to the
Northern States, I put up at a beautiful country
seat ter rest a few days. I delighted in ramb
ling, and in one of my excursions went as far
as a lake within two miles of the house ; feel
ing myself fatigued and t!ie heat oppressive, I
sat down beneath the spreading branches of a
hawthorn; a cold breeze from the water re
freshed me. and upon its smooth surface a num
ber of small boats and sail vessels were gliding
about in various directions. While contem
plating on t ie scenery, I was suddenly roused
by the warble of a female voice. I started,
turned, and beheld her just by me : she was
much confused at meeting a stranger so un.
esflected ; f however, droae immediately, pt>
litely bowed, introduced myself to iier, and in
sisted on her taking a seat under the same
shade with myself; accordingly, she done so,
and wo soon got into an agreeable conversa
tion.- I never felt such a variety of emot ons
as at that moment; my eyes were raised to
hers with the most ardent admiration. She
was apparently, about sixteen, and was both
as to taee and figure, what a painter nould
choose to copy as trie portrait oi a little playful
Hebe. Though a little below the middle size,
she was formed of the nicest symmetry ; her
skin was very fair, the softest blush of nature
shaded her beautiful rounded cheeks, her mouth
small and pouting,- and Whenever she smiled,
a thousand graces sported around it; her eyes
were of a heavenly blue, soft, yot animated,
giving lfke the ex; ression of her whole coun
teimnee, an idea of innocence, spirit and sen
sibility ; her hair of a most glossy brown,
hung carelessly about her, and her dress plain,
but neat. I beheld her (in what indeed was a
true light,) as a little playful nymph, whase ac
tions were tire offspring of innocence.
*•1 assure you,” exclaimed she, rising, “I
am loth to quit this pleasant seat, but if 1 stay
much longer I shall find the lady of the cot
tage in anxious expectation.” I asked her if
I should have the pleasure of seeing her home,
to which she assented. We walked on a dis
tance of about a quarter of a mile, entered a
small gate, ascended through a grass-grown
path to a very plain white cottage, which stood
on a gently sloping lawn surrounded by a rude
paling. We entered, and directiy an eHerly
woman of a genteel figure and pleasing coun
tenance apjieared, who I learned was the aunt
of this lovely young lady. After a litte while
I retired to my abode, but before leaving, was
politely invited to renew my visit
This young lady bore the appellation of
Amelia Fairfield ; her parents both died when
she was quite you fig, and left her in care of
her aunt, the elderly lady before mentioned.
In a short time, Amelia and myself became
quite intimate, she seemed to enjoy more pleas
ure in a solitary ramble with me, than the gay.
est company could afford her. We visited al
most every evening a favorite spot on the mar
gin of the lake at the foot of a woody moun
tain ; there often seated, we viewed the sun
sinking behind the opposite hills, arid while wc
enjoyed the benignancy of bis departing rays,
beheld her tinge the trembling waves with gold
and purple ; the low whistle of the ploughman
returning to his humble cottage; the plaintive
carol of birds from the adjacent grove, and the
low bleating of cattle from pastures, which
swelled above the water ; ail these, by giving
the softness and most pleasing charms of na- j
ture to the hour, contrived to touch yet more j
sensibly, hearts already preposseoed in favor j
of each other.
Amelia would sometimes sing a little simple
air, and carelessly leaning on my arm, appear
to enjoy perfect felicity ; in short, my young
friend, we were engaged. I soon married and
carried her home ; we lived happily together,
were of congenial tastes and sentiments ; she
received me after the daily toils of my avoca
ton, with chee ( <lness and si; ios; was the
faithful guardian of my treasury, the allevia
tor of rny calamities, and in a word, was all
that a kind and virtuous wife could be.
I resided on an island about a half mile from
the broad atlantic, and Upon one afernoom
my wife proposed a walk to the beech; so otf j
we went. The scene was wild and solemn, j
the waves stole with low murmurs on the shores ;
—the shadows of evening were begining to
descend—the gende breeze agitated the ma
rine plants that grew among tie crevices of j
the rocks—the sea-fowl with harsh and mel
ancholy notes were flocking to their nests, aud .
a ship past by spreading iier white sails to the. j
wind, and which we watched, till she appeared !
,like a speck on the horizon. Just at that mo
ment we were alarmed by a flash of lightning
and a quick, sharp crash of thunder ; the b rd.s
became silent in their leafy bovvers ; the in
sects chirped no longer, and the waves mur
mured no more. There was a dead pause in
the air, the earth, at>d the sea ; the dead dull
calm that intervened, announced that the rain
and tempest Were near. We immediately
bent our way for home, and had not proceed
ed but a few steps, when the tempest sent forth
its hoards of rain and wind, smiting the groan
ing trees, and deluging the thirsty earth, till it
could drink no mo;e, but voided its surplus in
to the sea that began anon to roar in angry
violence. My wife on her return tothehou.'C
was so fatigued and overcome with fright, that
she was immediately taken ill, and expired
about midnight. Oh ! what can describe the
anguish of my feelings ; they Were cot outra
geous—it was that deep, still sorrow, which
fastens in the heart and cannot vent itself in
tears or lamentations. I sat with calmness
by the bed where the remains of Amelia lay ;
I gazed on her pale face, which death, as .f in
pity to my feelings, had not disfigured, t kiss
ed her cold lips continually, exclaiming, “ Oh,
had we never met, she might still be living.”—'
It was a dreadful night, the tempest shook the
I house, and the wind howled through the galle
ries, which seemed like the las* moans of some
wandering spirit of the pile bewailing the loss
of one of its fairest daughters.
Late in the afternoon of the next day, she
was committed to the grave. Oh, how impos
sible to describe the anguish of my poor heart,
when I returned from seeing Amelia laid in
her last receptical. I shut mvsclf up in my
room, threw myself upon the bed whe e she had
expired, laid my cheek upon the pillow, grasp-
ed \to rrty boad*!!, hin t mn b mcMPbJf
iad breathed upon .t. “A i! Amelia,” I ex.
, claimed, *• shall tnese eyes never more be cie- *
od by beholding your angelic face.” Lan* t
n 'gut exhausted by my teehngs, I sank mf.i t
slumber; I dreamt ot' Amelia, and thong *
s.ielay beside me; I stretclied out my a rn *
to enfold her—alas, all was empty and void/*
l saw a silent tear stealing down his man /
eheek. At that moment our conversation w *
interrupted by trie presence of a servant, v >
anaouneoJ that Lie stage was waiting at t'«;
door for me. So I bid this old gentleman
adieu, as I have witn many ottiers in my tria -
ds ; whose faces perhaps 1 will never agrun
behold.
