AIT GJ-TJ STA, GfA,
WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOV. 14. 1860.
SUBSCRIPTION OB NO SUBSOEIPTION.
Our citizens, on Monday next, will have the
duty to perlorm of voting “Subscription or no
Subscription” to the Columbia aud Augusta
Railroad. Some may apprehend that, if Au
gusta refuse to subscribe, the road will not be
built, and the city thereby lose a golden oppor
tunity. This is a mistake. The road is in pro
gress ; the Company numbers among its stock
holders some of the wealthiest men in Georgia
and South Carolina—men who are amply able
and shrewd enough to maintain any and every
enterprise they embark in, if they think it will
pay.
The question, so far as Augusta is concerned,
is one only as to time, and were there no valid
reasons lor refusing to subscribe, would resolve
itself to this : Will the benefit that may be de
rived from an earlier completion of the road,
compensate for the certain loss she will sustain
in doing so ? We think not. This Columbia
and Augusta Railroad Company, whose stock
is not worth fifty cents on the dollar, utterly
refuses to receive a loan of $150,000 from the
city of Augusta, yet asks her to subscribe to its
stock, dollar lor dollar, lor the express and
avowed purpose of borrowing from other
sources and mortgaging its entire property to
secure the debt.
The city is in no condition to take this stock,
even were it at par value. We owe now one mil
lion one hundred thousand dollars, and, since
the war have not been able to meet current ex
penses and interest on this enormous debt,
without borrowing on new bonds at !H) cents,
pledging as security double the amount of
Georgia Railroad stock t<T get the money, even
at this ruinous rate. In addition to this large
debt, Augusta still owes $225,000 on her sub
' scription to the Milledgeville Railroad, whsch
will probably be called for during the next
twelve months. The interest on this amount
of bonds will add $15,750 to the expenses of
the city.
There is a smack of clap-trap about this
question which it will be well for our people to
consider. The resolution of Council, calling
for a vote on it, says :
Whereas, The City Council of Augusta, at a
meeting held November sth, 180(5, adopted the
following resolution, and added the accompany
ing extract from the charter ot the Augusta and
Columbia Railroad Company, to-wit:
llesuivcd , That his Honor, the Mayor, pro
claim an election to be held in the city of Au
gusta on the third Monday in November, 18(56,
according to the laws aud ordinances regulating
the same; and the vote taken at such election
shall be for “Subscription” or “No Subscrip
tion,” to the amount of one hundred thousand
($100,000) dollars to the capital stock of the Co
lumbia and Augusta Railroad, by the City Coun
cil of Augusta, said subscription to be paid in
City ol Augusta seven er cent, bonds. The
conditions ot said subscription shall be that the
Columbia and Augusta Railroad shall cross the
Savannah river, and have its machine shops and
freight, and passenger depots in this city and
that the real estate and other property owned
by said Columbia and Augusta Railroad shall be
subject to the same tax as other real estate in
the city of Augusta ; and provided, further, that
the Mayor p( the. city of Augusta shall be, ex
officio, a Director of said Company.
But how is the road to cross the river when
there is a contract between Augusta and the
South Carolina Railroad Company, that no
road will be permitted to do so, unless it
first tenders to this last named Company her
subscription ot $200,000 to the Milledgeville
Railroad Company. Here is the resolution of
Council on the subject, passed at a special call
ed meeting, held December 18, 1861:
CALLED MEETING, >
December 18th, 1861. )
The communication ltom the President of
the South Carolina Railroad was taken up,
when Mr. Heard offered the following, which
was passed:
Whereas : The South Carolina Railroad Com
pany have under consideration making a sub
scription of J wo Hundred Thousand Dollars
to the stock ol the Milledgeville Railroad Com
pany, and Whereas : it is jufttiee to the paid
South Carolina Rail.ioad Company, that it they
do so the business thus brought to this place
should be secured to the South Carolina Rail
road Company from competition with other
railroads that may be built and brought into
competition withJtheirCompany to the following
extent, viz : Any other Railroad Company that
may hereafter be built connecting directly or
indirectly, the City of Augusta, Georgia, and
the cities of Charleston or Columbia in South
Carolina, shall not be allowed to locate any
part of their Hoad in the City of Augusta with
out first making a tender to the said South
Carolina Railroad Company of the par value of
the said stock subscribed, and interest the ■•eon,
from the time of payment of said stock until
the completion of said Road; Provided: Said
concocting Road or Roads shall be located
within the next twenty-live years ; and Provided
further : That should said competing Roads be
located after the expiration ol tweut.v-tlve years
then, in that event, said connecting lload shall
tender tbe South Carolina Road for a pro rata
eliare of their Stock at par value.”
Is the Columbia and Augusta Railroad Com
pany able to make this tender ?
In order to mortgage the entire road and
thus obtnin funds to complete it, the Columbia
and Augusta Railroad Company desires this city
to subscribe to its stock, the subscription to be
made under a pledge that it will cross the
river and locate depots, etc., here.
But suppose, which is more than probable,
that the necessities of the company will compel
it to stop the road at Granitcville, what redress
would the city have ? She could not sue her
self, and, if she could, how would damages be
obtained when the entire road is mortgaged to
Other parties ? Again, this resolution calling
for a vote on the question, says : “ And that
the real estate and other property t wned by
the said Augusta and Columbia Railroad Com
pany shall be subject to the same tax as other
Teal estate in the city of Augusta.” llow can
this be done when the charter granted by the
State of South Carolina, section 28, declares :
Sac. 88. That the capital stock in the said
Company, the dividends thereon, nnd all the
property, real and personal, belonging to the
said Company, shall be exempt from taxation
by either of the States of South Carolina or
Georgia, or any corporate or municipal police,
or other authority thereof, or of auy town, city,
county, or district thereof, for the term of fif
teen years: Provided, That it shall bo compe
tent for the Legislature of either of said States,
at any time after the expiration of the period
aforesaid, to impose such tax upon the estate,
both real and personal, of the aforesaid Com
pany, as they may deem reasonable and just,
not exceeding, however, in any event the tax
imposed on the respective citizens of said States,
on property owned by them of a similar char
acter.
Before voting, then, under impulse and for
some fancied benellt which may never be real
ized, we appeal to the citizens of Augusta to
look before they leap, to investigate before they
decide by ballot. To simplify the matter, let
them consider the prudence or profit arising
from a probable hw-snit wiitli the South Caro
lina Railroad Company. Let them still further
consider the possibility of not having as much
work thrown iuto their hands as they imagine.
It would not be amiss for mechanics to rellect
that increased taxation is inevitable upon
law-suits, and increased debt will be an admi
rable and merciless pretext for augmented rates
by landlords. Let tbc vote be a well consider
ed vote. It will never do to vote blindly. They
who thus vote vote hastily and have long and
bitter leisure for repentance.
POOR POPE PIUS.
The Atlantic Telegraph Cable favors us with
a luminous dispatch from London to the effect
that “Mr. Gladstone’s mission to Rome is to
reconcile the Pope to his fate.” None but an
English snob or Yankee slioddyitc could con
template so contemptible and ridiculous an em
bassage. As Mr. Gladstone, though a politician
and progressionist, is very much ol a refined
gentleman, we suspect the truth of this rumor
to be infinitesimal. If the Pope has been a man
of God all these years and, by sanctity of life,
elevated his soul above earthliness ; if too,
being a man of God, he has faith in his faith
and faith in Providence, it is little short of im
pertinence for even Mr. Gladstone to console
the man whom, as he thinks, God cannot con
sole.
MRS. ELIZABETH OADT STANTON-
This lady, antagonist of the Hon. James
Brooks for Congress, has been defeated. She
received but eight votes, some say four. Let
her not despond. The present Radical party,
not a half century ago, was in the political hori
zon as a cloud not bigger "than a man’s band]
It now overshadows the whole earth. Patience,
Stanton : your time may come.
Our New York Correspondence.
New York, November 7th.
The election in this State has resulted in a
substantial Republican success. But so mauy
“ side-issues ” were introduced by both parties,
and so much chicane resorted to to control the
votes of the ignorant, that the result in this
city, as well as the State, is deprived of much
significance respecting Federal politics. The
increased Democratic majority in this city and
Brooklyn are to be ascribed to several causes.
1. The large naturalization of foreigners. 2.
The presence of a large number of Southerners,
who, having resided in the State a year, are
entitled to vote. 3. The revolt of the Germans
against the excise and Sabbatarian laws of the
last Legislature. 4. The disgust of voters of
English aud Scotch nativity at the coquetting of
the Tribune, with the Fenians. 5. The influ
ence of the Federal patronage, which is very
great. 0. The personal popularity of Mayor
Hoffman, and the unpopularity ol his competi
tors ; and finally, to the growth of Conserva
tive feeling among the Republicans. The gains
are in the moderately Republican and the Ger
man wards. The Irish wards barely give their
usual majorities. The prodigious majority of
56,500 is rolled up in the two counties. The
total vote being about 110,000 Democrats and
53,000 Republicans. But it is overcome in the
balance of the State, and Fenton, the Radical
candidate for Governor, elected by about 13,000
majority. This result is mainly attributable to
the manipulation of the Fenian leaders, by the
Radicals in Westchester county, (first north of
New York City,) and in the cities of Albany*
Troy aud Auburn. Some Anti Renti influence
was developed. Added to this, country preju
dice was excited against Mr. Hoffman because
he is a resident of the Metropolis. Many
Democrats refused to co-operate with their
party in the support of President Jolmspn, be
cause be continues Seward and Stanton iu office.
This remark is mainly applicable to the old
“ hard heads ” of the rural districts ; who
would not forgive those meu, if they were can
onized.
The discussion towards the latter part of the
campaign was turned in this quarter upon local
questions to the manifest damage of the Re
publicans. The various boards of commission
ers which have been created by the Radical
State Government to govern this city are very
unpopular. They are regarded by the Demo
crats as an encroachment upon their rights,
and they have been made up of political tyros
who have set themselves up above the people
and above their party, to the intense disgust of
all Republicans but those who directly profited
by tlieir operations.
The daily press of this city pretty uniformly
calls a trice to invective, aud I think 1 see a
disposition to promote a better state of public
temper, uuless something particularly irritating
occurs, some improvement in this regard may
be looked for. The Radicals are tolerably good
nutured over their success, aud will take coun
sel together on the assembling ol Congress be
fore anything more is done. But the struggles
that are pending in Maryland nnd Tennessee
may cause vexed questions to be raised, and
you may be sure the intention of organizing a
Suite government in Louisiana, based on ne
gro suffrage, is not ababaudoued. The Radi
cals feel that the ground is unstable under
them and they desire to pursue their advantages.
THE PUBLIC DEBT AND BUSINESS MATTERS.
The statement of the Federal Debt made pub
lie this morniilg, shows a decrease during the
mouth of twenty-two million dollars, accom
panied with a reduction in legal tenders of six
teen millions. This exhibit is regarded wilii
great satisfaction. Mr. McCulloch was douot
less impelled to renew his policy of contraction
by the speculation which threatened to carry
up the prioes of Breadstuff's to famine figures,
lie Ims applied a wholesome check, lie will
not, probably, reduce the currency quite so
rapidly for some mouths to come. But he can
not resist the constructive requirements of the
law-, and the demand of public opinion, to can
cel four millions of greenbacks monthly. His
reserve of currency is reduced to thirty mil
lions and lie cannot prudently let it go lower,
but the reserve of gold, above all claims, in
cluding the interest tailing due, is sixty-five
millions. The payments on the soldiers’ boun
ties begin to be made ; the income from, inter
nal revenue is falling off, and it is not improb
able that sales of gold will be necessary to re
plenish the currency of the Treasury.
A look through the markets to-day shows
that speculation is thoroughly broken up.
Breadstuff's ami provisions declined largely, and
cotton was lower. To get. prices down, so that
there will be some safety in transacting busi
ness, seems to be the desire of business men.
The banks are a little nervous over the state of
affairs, and do not encourage speculation in
merchandise. The latest cotton statement is as
follows: Receipts for the week, 48,300 bales;
total since Sept. 1, 207,100 bales; exports for
the week, 10,350 bales; total since Sept. 1,
72,502 bales; stock on hand, 208,000 bales ;
closing price at New York, 37%a38 cents for
middling uplands. Willoughby.

Milledgeville, November 12.
I think there will be a very pretty fight in the
.Senate, upon the bill, of the majority and
minority of the committee to whom was re
ferred the various bills relative to the abolish
ment and re-organization of the county court.
I'he majority reports iu substance against the
abolishment of the county court, aud offers a
Jill to reorganize it. It, authorizes suits on
common notes, Ac., of hand (except where giv
en by master or employer for wages, Ac.,) only
at the semiannual term—aud dispenses with all
juries except at the semiannual term —and x
cept iu special cases where it may be necessary
to clean out l he jails &c. The minority have
introduced bills to dispense with all juries for
the county courts, and to make them merely
committal courts Ac., and to redistrict the su
preme court judicial districts in this State—
to create six new judicial districts and to re
quire (lie judges of the Supreme Courts to hold
lour terms during the year—two of which are
lo be solely to try criminal cases. The bills of
both the majority.and minority have been or
dered to be printed, and the consideration of
the majority bill, (which as a matter of course
includes the consideration of the minority’s
bills) is made the ordei- for
As will be seen, a message was sent to the
Senate to-day by the Governor, laying before
the Senate tbe report of the Commissioners ap
pointed to inquire into the expediency of re
moving the Penitentiary. The report was not
read—but fifty copies were ordered to be print
ed. I hope to send you a copy to-morrow.—
The Governor differs with the Committee in its
proposition to abandon the present Peniten
tiary. He thinks tbe buildings, &e., are valua
ble for a Penitentiary, and nothing else, and that
the present buildings can be very appropriately
used, Ac. The Governor also opposes, in a few
but very forcible words, tbe proposition not to
let convicts work at mechanical labor, lie de
nies the proposition that tbe permitting them
to work in tbe trades, degrades these trades,
Ac., and says, in substance, that one might as
well contend that a farmer was degraded be
cause negroes, as convicts, worked with them
in the fields, Ac., or that quarrying was degra
ded by employing convicts to quarry, as the
Commissioners recommend. He opposes the
separation of the white from the black convicts,
Ac. Ido not pretend to give, in the above, any
of the language of Gov. Jenkins, but give this
account in my own language, from heariug tbe
message read before the Senate.
The Governor also recommended in his
message that Col. J. J. Whitaker, late Commis
sary General, be allowed to close up his ac
counts iu full, aud that this State pay his ac
count for rents, tse. The Governor says the
Convention Finance Committee, after rigidly
investigating Col. Whitaker’s accounts, books,
Ae., commended him very highly, and he
doubted not but that Col. Whitaker deserved
all that was said about him.
It is reported here that the Hon. Peter E.
Love, of Thomas county, is dead- Mr. Love
was formerly Judge of the Southern Judicial
Circuit, and afterwards member of Congress, I
believe, from the Ist district. He was a gen
tleman ol ability, but very modest aud unob
trusive in all his ways, was an honest man and
a true gentleman, quite social aud genial, and
loved by all who knew him. T.
