BY WILLIAM CLINE.
SAVANNAH, ALBANY In QUIT KAIL HOAD.
Extracts from the Fifth Annual Report of
the President and Board qf Directors <f
the Savannah, Albany and Golf Rad
liu and.
The President and Directors of the Sa
vannah. Albany & Gulf IlailFoad Company,
respectfully submit to the Stockholders the
following anuual report, upon the affairs of
the corporation s
At the date of the last annual report which
the Directors of the Company had the bon
or to submit to the Stockholders, the grading
*ef fhb flat division of the road, extending
*o the west bank of the Altamnha River, a
■distance of $3 miles from Savannah, had
■been finished, and that of the second division
tfroin Doctortown to the west bank of the
dLtftle Satilla River, was well advanced to
'■wafds completion. The entire grading was
finished in the mouth of December, of the
jpast year. Two montits later than the peri
od stipulated in the contract for this work,
tßut in ample time for the Work of superstruc
ture.
Since the last annual meeting of the Stock
holders, the bridge across the Little Satilla
River has been completed. It is the only
bridge of any importance in the second di
vision of the road. The contractor for this
structure was F. P. Holcomb. Esq. It was
finished in the month of October of the past
year. Another bridge has also been built
by the same contractor over the AJapaha
River, on the lipe of extension located by
the Company southwest from the Little Sa
t ilia River. This bridge has since been con
veyed by this Company at cost to the Atlan
tic & Gulf Railroad Company, and the line
referred to has been adopted as the line of
the latter Company’s road.
On the fOth of May of the past year, the
Directors reported that forty miles of the
road had been completed. On the first day
of August, 1857, the road was finished to
Doetortowu on the west bank of the Alta
maha River, a distance of 53 miles, and on
the first of March of the present year, it
completed to the west bank of the Little Sa
tilia River, 71 miles and 1530 feet ftom the
Company’s Depot in Savannah. At the
Little Satilla River the road reaches the point
described in the Charter of the Atlantic 6c
Gulf Railroad Company, as the initial point
of that Company’s road, it being the place
of meeting of the county lines of Wayne,
Ware and Appling.
In their last annual report, the Directors
stated-ihat the Company’s engineers were
engaged iu surveying the country between
the Great and Little Satilla rivers, with a
view to a further extension of the, road.—
Several lines were surveyed, and estimates
of cost submitted. The due investigation of
the subject by the Direction led to the selec
tion of a iine extending from the Little Sa
tilla Riv,er, to lot 311 in tiie Sth district of
Ware county, thirty-two miles in length, and
the President was instructed to locate this
line, and let the work of construction to con
tractors. In compliance witli these iastruc
tions the line was located, hut no part of the
work was put under contract with the excep
tion />f the bridge over the Alapaha River.
The monetary crisis of the past year, and the
expectation that the Legislature at its next
session would so amend the Charter of the
A. 6c G. R. R. Company, as to enable it to
proceed without the release required from
the B.*& F. R. R. Company, and to build
■on this line, which forms a part of the line of
.the Main Trunk pointed out in the act of in
corporation of the former Company, induced
tiie President to suspend further proceedings.
The located line above described, has been
since adopted by the A. 6c, G. R. R. Compa
ny as a part of the Hue of their road.
The point of beginning of the A. &. Gulf
Railroad, as above stated, is required by its
charter, to bo at or near the intersection of
the county lines of Wayne, Ware and Ap
pling. Although it bad not been located,
the Savannah, Albany 6c Gulf Railroad
■Company in the year ISSG determined to
extend tiieir road to the exact point thus des
scribed as soon as possible, and applied all
of its energies to the accomplishment of the
task. The county lines intersect at the
junction of the principal tributaries of the
Little Satilla River, and without stopping to
examine the question of fitness for the be
ginning of the, Atlantic & Gulf Road, and
for the union of other roads with it, the S.,
A. & Gulf Road was constructed to this
point, a bridge was built across the river and
n temporary station fixed on its western bank.
Tim land at this place is low snd subject to
inundation, and is therefore unfit for the point
of beginning of the Atlantic 6c Gulf Road.
The face of the coantry for several miles
beyond the Little Satilla, is also highly un
favorable. The A. 6c G. R. R. Company
las therefore been compelled to look for a
beginning point oast of thatTiver, and it has
fotand a suitable location on the line of road
of this Company, three miles and 1530 feet
distant from its w estern bank. Considerable
latitude was fortunately given by the Legis
lature in the selection of the point by the use
of the words “ns near as practicable.” The
S* A. 6c G. R. R. Company have upon the
application of the A. 6c Gulf Railroad Com
pany surrendered as much of their road for
its actual cost as was necessary to establish
the initial point.
The point selected for the location of the
beginning of the A. 6c Gulf Road, is situated
upon lot 401 in the 4th district of Appling
county. This lot of land contains 490 acres,
(upon re-snrvey 499 acres) and has been, pur
chased jointly by the 8„ A. 6c Gulf and the
A. 6c Gulf Railroad Companies, at the price
of *1,009. Hero will be established an un
ion station for these and socli other compa
nies as may seek to unite witli the Main
Trunk, at its instial point.
• .-(* • ■ * :■> f;. • # -
Previous to the establishment of the ini
tial point of the Atlantic 6c Gulf Road, this
Company’s Road was seventy-one mild and
1520 feet In length. By the sale of three
miles and 1620 feet to the Atlantic 6c Gulf
Rathrond Company, the length of the road
has been reduced to sixty-eight miles. The
first fifty-three miles of the road/ nearest to
Savannah are laid with rails weighing fifty
seven pounds to the yard, the next ten miles
with rails weighing fifty pounds to the yard,
and the remainder with rails fifty-four piuhds
to the yard—all of these rails are of the T
pattern and of Welsh manufacture. The
wooden superstructure of the entire line con
sists of cross-ties of pine timber, sixteen
miles .and a half of which are sawed Snd the
remainder hewn. ‘
As above stated, the road was completed
to the west bank of the Little Satilla River
on the Ist of March of the present year, but
it was not open for business Until the Bth of
that month. A train has been passing over
it daily, except Sundays, carrying passen
gers, mails snd freights, running to the Lit
tle Satilla Station and returning to Savannah
in ten hours and a half. ’ ’ .

The only existing Railroad connection
with the’ road of this Company is that Form
ed by the Atlantle-dfc Gulf Railroad. The
interests of these roads are so intimately
connected that it may not be improper to im
part information upon the present condition
and prospects of the Atlantic 6c , Gulf Tlail
road Company, commonly known as the
Main Trunk.
In tlijj last Annual Report of the Direc
tors, it was stated that there was a reasonable
prospect of a settlement of the vexed ques
tion between the Atlantic & Gulf and the
Brunswick 6c Florida Railroad Companies,
relating to the release provided for in the
Charter of the former from the latter Com
pany. The hope, then ardently cherished,
of a speedy adjustment o‘s this question, was
deferred by the refusal of the Directors of
the B. 6c F. R. R. Cos. to adopt the terms of
a settlement recommended by tbe Stockhold
ers of their Company, and it was not until
the meeting of the Legislature, that the diffi
culties between the two companies were ad
justed by the passage of a bill authorizing
the Governor to pay the State’s subscription
to the A. 6c G. R. R. Cos. after a certain named
period, whether the B. 6c F. R. R. Cos. exe
cuted ornotthe release required by tiie Char
ter of the former Company.
The release was subsequently made, the
first instalment of 20 percent has been paid
by tbe private subscribers and by the State,
and the campany is now successfully prose
cuting the construction of its road. The
grading of twenty-four miles is under con
tract, and tbe work is vyell advanced. The
Engineers of the Company have surveyed
three lines to Thomasville, and are now pre
paring profiles and estimates of cost with a
view to the selection of a line. To this road
tiie State of Georgia will furnish aid to the
extent of one million of dollars, upon cer
tain conditions. She hai already subscribed
five hundred thousand dollars in bonds paya
ble principal and interest in New York, the
former in twenty years, the latter serai-an
nually. The inteution of tbe State in grant
ing the charter for this road, is to provide a
Main Trunk Railroad aciosß her territory,
connecting the Atlantic with tho Gulf of
Mexico; and the line of tho road is thus in
dicated in the act of incorporation “from a
point as near as practicable to the intersec
tion of the lines of the counties of Appling,
Ware aud Wayne, across the Satilla River
at or near Walker’s Ferry ia-tbe vicinity of
Waresboro’, and thence by tho most practi
cable route to the Western boundary of the
State of Georgia at any point between Fort
Gaines, in the county of Clay, and the junc
tion of the Flint and the Chattahoochee
Rivers, in the county of Decatur, said
South-Western terminus to be selected by
the Directors after an accurate survey and
estimate of cost shall have been made, with
distinct reference to a speedy connection
with the Gulf of Mexico at Mobile or Pen
sacola.” The surveys and subscriptiotfl
which have been made give rise to the ex
pectation that Thomasville and Bainbridge.
will be on the Hue of this road. When the
road shall reach Bainbridge, a Gulf connec
tion will be formed by means of the Flint
and Apalachicola divers at the city of Apa
lachicola. If receut intelligence relative to
the discovery of a deep channel across the
bar at the mouth of the Apalachicola Rivei
with a corresponding depth of water to a
safe anchorage at White Bluff, shall be con
firmed, this connection will be a very impor
tant one, not only to the A. 6c Gulf Railroad,
but to this Company also.
Railroad lines to connect with the road of
this Company have been projected to Da
rien, St. Marys, Fernandina, Baldwin At tbe
junction of the Florida 6c Jacksonville Road,
to the Pensacola 6c Georgia Road at Colum
bus or Jasper; but no means have been pro
vided to accomplish any of these objects.—
We may, however, expect from recent de
monstrations of interest in these enterprises
firactical results upon one or more of tbe
ines indicated.
The completion of the Atlantic 6c Gulf
Road to Thomasville and Bainbridge, will
cause the stock of the Savannah, Albany 6c
Gulf Railroad Company to be remunera
tive; bat when the same road shall have
been extended to Pensacola oi* Mobile, and
other Connections, demanded by tho public
want 8, shall be made with our road, the stock
holders will possess one of the most profita
ble roads In tbe Southern country.

A BBITIBB PACIFIC BAILWAY.
While the people and tbe Congress of the
United States are talking “about a railroad to
the Pacific, quarreling over its location, and
devising grand schemes of plunder in con
nection with it, England and Canada are ac
tively engaged in the undertaking, and with
the advantage of having a shorter route and
a portion of their line cqinpTeted.’ The idea
is entirely new to us; but if our readers will
take a railroad map, and see what a com
mencement of this work the Grand Trunk
Railway forms, its practicability will be evi
dence at once. The Grand Trunk road has
one terminus at Port! md, the deepest port
on the Atlantic seaboard. The other east
ern terminus is at Quebec, Montreal being in
fact the principle point of shipping and trade.
The road thus runs west eight hundred and
ffly miles, passing through Toronto, to the
town of Stratford. From this point it is
proposed to push it to Vancouver on the Pa
cific shore, a distanco of three thousand miles
more. The Portland branch is built with
British money. Thus the English are 850
miles on the way from the Atlautic to the
Pacific, and are taking steps for the further
progress of the work. Wo, in the mean time
are doing nothing towards getting into our
hands the immense carrying trade between
Asiatic and European ports.
The Journal de l’ Empire, o{ Paris gives
the details of the movement in its present
aspect. It seems that a great expedition is
about to start from London, to be command
ed by Col. Elliot, of tbe Royal Engineers,
and composed of a company of sixty engi
neers aud a troop of forty men, under com
mand of Capt. Haig. At Vancouver these
will be joined by one hundred men who are
to act as pioneers, selected from the most ex
perienced and hardy servants of the Hudson’s
Bay Company. Then the expedition will
make its surveys for the completion of tbe
road.
At Sarnia, situated at the foot of Lake Hu
ron, and the opposite end of the river St.
Clair from Detroit, the Grand Trunk road is
intended to take up for the benefit of Canada a
trade which in 1855 amounted to sixty mill
ions sterling,—a trade which formerly went
by Buffalo, and the withdrawal of which has
caused the ruin of the Ontario and St. Law
rence lines of steamers already. In short,
it is intended that the products of a large
sweep of our own western country, the un
developed resources of the vnst regions of
British North America, and the European
trade with Asia shall pass over this road,
with important Atlantic termini both on
British and American soil. Tho plan seems
to be very comprehensive and complete, aud
to possess topical advantages and relations
that will make Canada a powerful competi
tor witli America in the race of empire. It
will make of Canada anew realm. The en
thusiastic French writer to whom we have
alluded,Thinks that Sarnia will soon take the
placo of Buffalo, and Montreal that of New
York; “blotting out commercially both these
places from the high position they now occu
py as trading cities.” This will not be,
though doubtless both may be interfered
with in their growth, and take new relations
—-one to the trade of the country, the other
to that of the world.
Now, does it not seem important to do
something lor our own Pacific project?—
■Here is an exigency. The world wants and
needs this road; the British capitalist and
the British Government have the land on
which to build it, and a short and practica
ble route, witli 850 ifiles of it completed.—
Can any one doubt that this immense enter
prise will he pushed forward when the stake
played for it is so great, aud the facilities of
tho game arc so appareut?— Spnngfuld Re
publican.
There are other facts connected with the
Pacific Railroad enterprise which have not
been alluded to in the above, and which go
still further towards developing the line of
polNfy adopted by the British Government
on this subject. Tho Grand Trunk Rail
way has already been taken under the pro
tection of the Imperial Government, and lias
received a grant of several millions of poands
sterling in consideration of extending its line
from Quebec to Halifax, a distance of five
hundred miles, through a tract of country
which is altogether valueless fur commercial
purposes as yet. This line is now under
contract, and will be completed in the course
of a few years, and the Grand Trunk will
then present an uninterrupted line of contin
uous rail from Halifax to Port Sarnia—a dis
tance of over thirteen hundred miles of the
finest road hi the world. There can be no
doubt of the intention of the British Gov.
eminent to make this line a grand military
cordon road, running through the whole of
its northern possessions on this continent via
the north shore of Lake Buperior to Paget’s
Sound, and at tho same time, by grants of
land to actual settlers, by the removal of
all restrictions upon emigration, to cause the
tide of population to keep paco with tbe
opening up and the development of the coun
try.
During a recent trip over the line of this
road from Toronto to Montreal, in tho course
of which we had an epportunity of convers
ing freely with Members of Parliament and
witli a number of the principal Railroad men
of tbe Province, this intention of the British
Government to push on the work to its wes
tern terminus on tbe shores of the Pacific,
was freely discussed, and the opinion frankly
stated that while weof the United Btates were
quarrelling over the location of the eastern
terminus of out road, the British Atlantic and
Pacific Railroad would bo completed and in
full operation.
It is not expected, of course, that this
route will be a self sustaining one for years;
but this is no hindrance whatever to its pro
jectioir and ultimate completion. There
must be an outlet somewhere for thq surplus
capital of England,and heft-capitalists are al
ready disgusted with the Americau system of
railway management Both tbe Imperial
and Provincial Governments desire the road
to be built for its political advantages, if for
no other ; and for this purpose the former es-
pecially is willing to guaranty the interest on
tbe east of construction, as R has alreadv
done in tbe case of the Grand Trank
Railroad, and this is inducement sufficient
for capitalists to invest. That the road wiU
be built therefore, and as rapidly as possible,
there seems no reason to entertain a doubt.
But we are net unite so sore that the fears
expressed; in the above extract in reference
to the “blotting out coramcicially” of Buffa
lo and New York are well founded. We in
cline to the opinion rathor, that it is for
the interest of both these localities to favor
the construction of this great thoroughfare by
all possible means, in tiie absence of any prob
ability that a northern rofito will ever be con
structed through out our owu dominions. A,
road through the British Turritorios, passing
around the noitbcrn shore of Lake Superior,
can only be available for passenger traffic
for years to come. For all commercial pur
poses, the termination of such a route will be
at the western extremity of that lake, from
whence an uninlcrrufited water communica
tion exists, passing through Buffalo and New
York, with alt parts of tho world. It has
bqen sufficiently demonstrated that even
railroad transportation cannot compete with
our inland navigation in the carrying of freight
except in seasons of very high prices and of
unusual commercial excitement. A thou
sand miles of railroad transportation from the
western shore of Lake Superior to Montreal,
or Portland and Halifax, which are several
hundred miles further, will double the cost
of almost any article of commerce; whilo by
the water channels of the lakes and canals
the same can be laid down in New York at
nearly the same price as now paid from Chi
cago to the same point. Wo should also
reap the lion’s share of the passenger traffic ;
at least one half thw-Enropean, and all that
portion from the Eastern, middle and South
ern Atlantic States would pass through Bus-
falo, and connect with the Pacific or Grand
Trunk Railway at Stratford; so that, under
every view of the case, with the Internation
al Bridge and the Pacific Railway completed,
we repeat, our city will have nothing to fear;
but on the contrary, everything to expect
from the latter enterprise; and, instead of
waging a nseles war with the South for a
central road terminating at St. Louis, let us
urge on the Northern Pacific Railway around
tho shore# of Lake Superior.— Buffalo Ex-

A KALLOCK CASE IN NEW YOBS.
The New York Evening Post giv.es the
following account of a scandalous and infa
mous transaction by a reverend seoondrel
who was quite active at the revival meetings
in that city during tiie last winter.
During the revival season of lust winter a
bcantiful young girl of eighteen, residing in
Madison street, became the Bnbject of im
pressions, and under the belief tlmt she was
degenerate, was admitted on probation into
one of the Methodist Episcopal societies.—
Some few days since it was discovered that
she was advancing in piegnaucy.
An examination was bal to learn what
had “ wrought tbe maiden this foul wrong,”
when the matter was found to be complicated
rather singularly—the preacher, the Ilov.
Win. P. Corbett, and Mr. John King, a class
leader, according to her statement, sustain
ing paternal relationship. Tbe investigation
is still in progress. ——
The clergyman has a wife and four chil
dren, who usually spend the season at water
ing places, while he remains aloue at home.
Scandal hath it that he is hot only a gifted
revivalist, bnt is famous for gallantry with
young girls, a fact which seems to be substan
tiated. Ho is said to have been seen at Dry
Dock repeatedly witb women of doubtless
reputation.
One af'ernoon abont four month* ago, he
visited a “first class- house” in Mercer street
where he encountered three young men of
his acquaintance. He told them that he
called to see a young woman who was sick
and seemed to be penitent. He left soon af
terward, and being watched, was seen to call
again at the same place in tbe night time.
He is said to have been a frequent visitor
of places of dissipation. He has a popular
address, and is very successful in revival ef
forts. Tbe Conference had assigned him
this year to the church in Green street; bat
the congregation have requested him to close
his services. The question of paternity is
yet unssettled.
GRASS WIDOWS IK EHDIAHA.
A correspondent of the Dayton Journal,
who has been traveling ont in the Wabash
regions of Hoosierdotn, discovered one pecu
liarity in every town he tarried in:
Speaking of gins*, reminds me of the fact,
that Indiana (and particularly the Wabash)
is literally swarming with gratt widows. —
Every hotel or tavern has, or have had, one
or mote of those bewitching vixens domicil
ed with them for ten days, which makes them
citizens and residents of the State of Indi
ana, aud, with a little bard swearing, natives
too vit the expiration of ton days a suit is
commenced against some rile husband, and,
as a matter of course, a divorce is granted, if
for no other cause than incompatibility of
temper. Here are congregated from all the
States in the Union (except Illinois, who is
a competitor for this profitable lawyer trade)
all the disconsolate grass widows. A cause
I heard of in Peru, where the widow of a
millionaire had come from Brasil, remained
here ten days, got her divorce, with one hun
dred thousand dollars of alimony, and would
have bad more, but old Crousns had no-mere
in the United States that was eomeatible.

If a child is passionate, teach him by gen

oder<ms duties with alacrity, if pride comes
in to make obedience reluctant, subdue him
by counsel or discipline. In short, gird yonr j
