. / u-i >.*, . ... ■ ■iiir Wiiii -mm ■ *£■ 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. ’ ’ . • * • • a 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. An Item fob Cotton Planters. —The Belton (Texas) Independenfsays: “In the Patent Office Report of 1855, wo find that Townsend Glover, Esq., who is a scientific man, and who was employed by the Depart ment for that purpose, has made a report of his investigations regarding insects. He re ports that spiders, Carolina tiger beetle, the predatory beetle, devil’s coach horee, Icfttieu monfly, Sjrpbus, lady-bird and the laca wing tiy are very beneficial to the cotton plant, being constantly engaged in destroy ing those insects which feed off the cotton stalk and its products.

THOMASVILLE, GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY MORNING JULY 28, 1858. Form tbe Bouton Railway Titaes. * 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- P re **- -_j 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.
