AUGUSTA. GA.
WEDNESDAY MORNING. DEO. 30,1868
BIG JOBS.
General Grant’s alleged hostility to the
Pacific Railroad, as recently expressed to
conversation with a Republican Senator,
has brought that big job into prominence
as a topic of loyal plundering. We learn
that it would have had a Southern termi
nus, but for the war. The war having pre
vented this, it was converted into an enor
mous system of pillage. Not only do the
Indians fight against it, but a more perma
nently dreadful power, the Northern Win
ter, will continue to obstruct and defeat its
usefulness. A gentleman conversant with
the region through which the road passes,
tells us that snow-drifts of one hundred
feet in height are not uncommon, and the
delay and expense attendant upon remov
ing the visitations of wintry storms will
seriously, if not fatally, stand in the way of
its success in everything but jobbery. As
if confirmatory of this, a letter from
Cheyenne, Dacotah Territory, published in
one ol the Washington papers, has this
startling statement:
“ The Pacific Hoad will have to he rebuilt in
one year from this date , or at least the greater
part of it. 1 have been over every inch of the
Hoad several times, and. know that I am slating
facts."
This is vouched for as reliable informa
tion. If Gen. Grant sets his face against
this and other gigantic jobs he w'll have
his hands lull, poor man. When he shall
have overthrown all corruption and made
the Republic respectable, it will be time
enough to get up subscriptions to continue
the building of the Washington Monument.
Till then,, let the unfinished column stand
as it is, the fragmentary type of a broken
Covenant. To continue, in seeming good
faith, the memorial shaft to Washington,
would imply that the “ Nation ” had at-
to gild corruption with a veneer
of ancient honor. If wc are to have plnn
dcr, let us dispense with hypocrisy. It is
too soon yet to make so bold a job out of
the Sage of the Revolution—the Great Rebel
who, from some heavenly pinnacle per
chance, gazes down in wonder at the wreck
of all he lived aud died to save.
MOVEMENT OF NORTHERN CAPITAL
SOUTH.
Wc have before us a letter from one of
the largest Real Estate Agencies of the city
of New York, dated December 21st, in
which is stated: “We think there will be a
large movement of men and money toward
Georgia and the South generally in a few
months." This opinion is from men who
come in daily contact with the largest
capitalists of the North and are thus wejl
prepared to draw general conclusions as to
their future intentions and movements.
From this and other quarters wc are pleased
to see that considerable attention is attract
ed to Georgia, through the movement lately
taken place at Macon in the reorganiza
tion of the State Agricultural Society.
This Society has a great work before it,
which wc have no doubt from present indi
cations, it will thoroughly and ably dis
charge.
David Dickson. —We learn that Mr.
Dickson has declined the Presidency of
the newly reorganized State Agricultural
Society. It was so predicted by his friends,
and t.ho Society would have done Well to
remember Mr. Dickson’s retired habits,
great opposition to a sound policy of immi
gration and almost undivided attention to
cotton. Whether these qualifications made
him the proper choice, we will not now dis
cuss. The State Agricultural Society will
have some other man to choose, who com
bines with a knowledge of cotton raising
a profound acquaintance with political
economy generally, and who is able to re
commend ways and means how best to
further all of the industrial interests of the
State.
W. W. Boyce.— Mr. Boyce, formerly a
member of Congress from South Carolina,
but now a resident ol Washington, lias
written a letter of “thoughtful advice” to his
former constituents. He advises “concilia
tory ” conduct towards the Federal Gov
ernment —“ harmony ” between tiie races—
“ kindness ” to the blacks—a “ cordial ”
welcome to Yankee immigration—“ toler
ance of political opinions," and above and
beyond all other things, to “ let every one,
black and white, vote as he pleases."
Mr. Boyce presumably wishes the South
to acknowledge that she has been the re
verse of all this.
Has It Been Done? —By resolulions of
the State Agricultural Society, the Secre
tary was required to i v sue a short address
to the people of the State, to appoint an
ageut for every county to solicit subscrip
tions for membership and to have the pro
ceedings forthwith published in pamphlet
form. Upon the meeting of this Society, it
ought to have two thousand members en
rolled; if not, then the failure will not be
in accordance with the spirit which it
evoked throughout the State.
Southern Loyalist Claims.—So far the
claims of “ Southern Loyalists,” for dam
ages to property during the war, amount
to 1500,000. Congress dreads to pass upon
any claim favorably, believing that |500,000
would, by such action, soon swell to hun
dreds of millions.
No Nkouoes. — The Army Reunion at
Chicago admitted no negroes, though
Greeley says the “ colored troops fought
nobly.”

A Card from Col. Schaller.
Editor of the Constitutionalist:
Mr. Enrrou: I beg leave to thank you
for your kind reference to my name in your
editorial of the 20th inst. In one point
only appears it to me necessary to make
any additional observations, by the mention
of the fact that I have been and am now
officially connected with emigration to
Virginia. When the State of Georgia shall
have created a Bureau and the requisite
offices, it will be ample time to discuss the
question how to fill them. I have no doubt
that the appointing power will then be
perfectly competent to weigh the claims of
the candidates who may present them
selves, and to take care that the interests
and honor of Georgia lie duly guarded.
I remain, very truly, yours,
F. Schaller.
Wendell Philips says : “ There is the Indian,
a race who have cost us a thousand million of
dollars.” But, sir, there is the negro, a race
which has cost us three thousand million of
dollars in less than eight years. What say you
to that ? And the eost of this negro Imnsincss
is still going on at the rate of three or four
hundred millions a year.
The working men of England who proposed
to give a banquet to Mr. Reverdy Johnson, after
a warm discussion, appointed a deputation to
wait upon Mr. Johnson for the purpose of in
forming him that in consequence of the con
flicting opinious existing in England and
America on the questions now in the course of
arrangement, it was considered not advisable
to proceed with the proposed banquet.

The Port Royal Railroad Company was
chartered by the States of South Ca£oliiga
and Georgia to run from Port Royal, South
Carolina, to Autrusta, Ga., crossing the
Savannah river at or near Sand Bar Ferry—
with a draw bridge—«o as not to impede
tixe free navigation of the river.
Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
have been subscribed, paid in and expended
in surveying and grading the road. The
stockholders have voluntarily reduced the
stock one half, so there is now only
$125,000 of stock issued, although twice
that lias been paid in. This reduction was
made so as to invite new subscriptions.
Forty one and a half miles of the road
bed have been graded, leaving only sixty
nine miles to be graded. The grading
done commences about thirty-five miles
from Augusta, and is Continued towards
Port Royal. , ,
The right of way has been procured for
the greater part of the way, mostly by free
■d ft *to the company; and the balance, it
is presumed, will be acquired to like man
ner, or at slight cost.
The distance firom Augusta, to Port
Royal (deep water) is 110 miles. At
miles from Augusta, the Port Royal Rail
road crosses and connects with the bavan
mill and Charleston Railroad, making it
only 136 miles from Augusta to either
Sa vannah or Charleston by the Port Royal
Railroad via, the Savannah and Charles
ton Railroad; tti us patting deep water 26
miles nearer Augusta than either Charles
ton or Savannah, and giving*August* a
new railroad to both Charleston and Savan
nah as short and direct as by the present
routes. ■' "
Port Royal is one of the most healthy
locations on the South Atlantic con-t, and
possesses the best harbor, and the only good
harbor, oil the whole South Atlantic coast
South of Norfolk, Va.; which, by its loca
tion, can be made available for commercial
purposes. Port Royal has 22leet of
water at low tide on the bar, while Charles
ton has only 11 feet, and often even less
than that, for her bar is of shifting quick
sand, white the bar at Port Royal has never
been known to change for the past fifty
years. The entrance to Port Royal harbor
is very wide ami straight, aud the harbor
is so easy of entrance that any captain who
can navigate a vessel across the ocean can
enter or leave wit out a pilot, With perfect
safety; and this fact was demonstrated
during the war, for the tonnage that en
tered and cleared at this port, in 1864 and
Spring of 1865, was only second to New
York, and the vessels were of the largest
class, both sailing and steam; and there
was not a single vessel lost In entering or
leaving, anti that usually without pilots,
and the harbor not buoyed out and light
houses built, as there would be if it was
made a commercial port. The United
.States frigate Vermont, with oneaud a half
millions of stores aboard, and drawing26)£
feet of water, passed out over the bar at
half tide. That is a half foot of water
more than the Great Eastern ever drew.
The South for years has felt the want of
a direct trade with Earope, and she now
feels the want and necessity more strongly
than ever since the abolition of slavery.
' If the South is ever to be built up within
our day, or even hold her own, it is to be
done by emigration, and we can never have
a European emigration without direct trade
with Europe, and that by steam.
The question is, Can the South support a
line of steamers to Europe? I will say on
my own behalf that she can.
The South last year produced about
seven-tenths, or more than half of the ex
ports from the United States to Europe.
The transatlantic commerce has changed
within the past five years, and it is destined
to have a still greater change from sail
ing vessels to iron propellers of a large
class. It has been demonstrated by years
of experience, that a steamer must have a
capacity of at least two thousand five
hundred to three thousand tons to make it
pay to cross the Atlantic, and a vessel of
that capacity will draw from 19 to 23 feet
of water, thus excluding them from our
harbors and the South from a direct trade
witli Europe, and compelling us to ship our
products fln-t to New York, or some other
Northern port, in small vessels and steamers,
and from there to Europe in large steamers,
making double the cost for which it could
have been shipped direct, if we had the
same class of steamers and vessels that can
enter New York or Port Royal.
There will be hardly ten tliousnntl bales
of cotton shipped this year from New York
to Europe in sailing vessels.
It is cheaper to ship by steam, for it
saves one-half the insurance, aud allows
tiie shipper to draw at sight instead of at
sixty or ninety days, as he would be com
pelled to do if he shipped by a sailing ves
sel. And besides, the shipper can calculate
with more certainty on the market for
fifteen than he can on sixty or ninety days.
Every newspaper has some new plan of aid
ing emigration or of establishing a line of
steamers to Europe. But few of them
kuow why the South lias never had direct
steam communication with Europe. It is
bee mse she lias not had a harbor that could
take a class of steamers that could make it
pay. As soon as we have a harbor to take
the steamers we will flud a plenty of men
ready and willing to put on a line, and we
shall have that harbor as soon ns the Port
Royal Railroad is built to Augusta.
Besides, the steamers that now run between
New York and Savannah and Charleston,
could carry freight from Port Royal to
New York from 20 to 25 per cent, cheaper
than from Charleston or Savannah ; a sav
ing to t te planter and the planter only.
That the eity of Augusta is to be bene
fitteU greatly* by the building of the Port
Royal Railroad there is no doubt. That
every business man is to be be tie tit ted there
is no doubt. That every holder of real es
tate is to be benelitted there is no doubt.
That every planter is to be benefltted there
is no doubt. Tiiat the whole South is to be
benefltted there is no doubt. For direct
trade will make cotton wortli at least from
one cent to two cents more at the plantation.
That the stock of the road is a good in
vestment there can be but little doubt.
Take a map and compare the location and
connections of this road with the South
Carolina, Georgia Central and Georgia
Railroads.
The stock of the Georgia Central is
worth 127; the Georgia 90. All of these
roads have but one terminus, while the
Port Royal will draw from all the roads
in the South, and have three termini —one
at Charleston and one at Savannah, and the
only road running to Port Royal which is
destined, by its location and splendid
harbor, to be the city of the South Atlantic
coast. Few rail roads in the United States,
and certainly none in the South, have the
advantages which this road possess to
make it a paying road.
The building of the Port Royal Railroad
insures direct trade with Europe, and a
cheaper harbor for coastwise shipments,
and direct trade means emigration—they
arc one and inseperable. There is no rea
son in the world why a pound of cotton
should be shipped to New York, or any
other Northern port, except what is needed
for home consumption;—that is, if we had
a harbor of the capacity to take vessels of
any and all classes at any and all times
-of the tide, as we can at Port Royal.
The prospects of the building of the road
are these: The President, S. C. Millett,
has, through his influence, interested
Northern capitalists in the road who have
agreed with him to furnish the necessary
funds to build, stock and equip the road in a
good and substantial manner and make it
a first class road iu all respects, provided,
the company will raise by subscription to
the stock three hundred thousand dollars;
four per cent, to be paid on making the
subscription, six per cent, on the comple
tion of the first section of ten miles, and
ten per cent, upon the completion of every
subsequent section of ten miles till all is
paid.
Will not the business and moneyed men
of the South, and especially of Augusta,
move in this matter, when they are to be
so greatly benefltted. Enterprise.
The cable has informed us that the London
Times of Wednesday last prints a memorial,
signed by over one hundred members of Parlia
ment, to Minister Johnson, requesting him to
urge the United States Government to adopt
the penny postage system between this coun
try and Great Britain. This might add to the
deficiency of some six or eight millions which
the Post Office Department is expected now to
show annnally. But that the rates lor ocean
postages will be greatly reduced to advantage
ere long there can be little donbt.
Most of the planters in Holmes county
Mississippi, In anticipation of the tax being
renewed upon cotton, are sowing wheat.
Breach between Grant and
The Washington CgjgipKnt of the
; “Thesuddeaand widening breaStetween *

'new annuuclatiomrhave been male by the
President elect. He has not referred to
the subject, and only casual callers have
area?
effect that he demand, the repeal of the
Civil Tenure law, and the continuance of
the law providing for Congress to meet to
March, has-been the flatter
Senators, Nye, Morgan, Sumner and Stew
art, ato here, and had an informal meeting
to reference to the new situation. These
of the the Civil Tenure bill,
yield nothing to dictation, and
Grant’s extraordinary and peremptory de
mand ought at least to have been postpon
eduntil the occasion of his message, and
then been respectfully coached in the form
of a proclamation. They deny that Con
gress intends to construe the Civil Tenure
bill against any desire Gen. Grant may have
ous officials; but they decline to abrogate
the law altogether, because, as Mr. Sumner
declares, the security of the fhture requires
it. The Senators charge that any rupture
between. Grant and Congress will be refer
able to die former, whose gauntlet has been
thrown down in advance; but that the
crucial test to which the Civil Tenure bill
was put In the impeachment proceedings
proved that it muStstand. Telegrams have
been received to-day from Butler- and
Wilson on the sadden situation. Butler is
said simply to have said, stand flesft. Wit*
son enjoined no haste, and pasfence; and
Senator Sherman, who is now here, gravely
keeps his own counsel Senator Morton,
who is here, professes to be busied with his
financial studies, and declines to discuss
the civil-tenure issue, believing, however,
that when Trumbull and Fessenden return
all will be made right. On the contrary,
Senator Henderson was to-day free in his
opinion that the law had worked badly and
that General Grant’s demand for its repeal
in advance was timely and right. It is
conceded that the bill will not lie repealed,
and tiiat General Graut has only succeeded
in precipitating a hostility which was not
expected to show itself so soon. The other
demand of Grant for a session of the For|y
flrst Congress will be acceded to. Indeed,
Wade, Fessenden, and Sherman, and also
Trumbull and Wilson, were pronounced in
favor of it before tills date, aud Wr. Conk
ling's bill to repeal the act of Continuous
Session has dropped out of sight.”
Editorially, the Herald thus closes an
elaborate article:
“On Congress rests the onus of the act.
They are called upon to move before Gen.
Grant assumes the office, and if they refuse
or fail to do so there can lie but one deduc
tion as to the reason for their course—they
either distrust. General Grant, or they are
determined that he shall nut have power to
purge the Government of Its manifold cor
ruptions and wickedness.”
Circular Letter from Hon. Nelson Tift.
House of Representatives U. 8., >
Washington, December 18, 1868. )
To the Honorable Judge of the Supreme Court,
Judges of the Superior Courts, Judges of
Gyurts of Ordinary, and Mayors of Cities
in the State of Georgia.
The present condition of affairs in Geor
gia is being investigated before the “ Joint
Committee on Reconstruction,” with a pur
pose ©f adopting such action by Congress
as may seem to them necessary and proper
to insure the faithful and prompt adminis
tration of the laws, and protection to the
rights of all classes of persons and pro
perty.
Certain parties from Georgia, and among
them her present Governor, with the avow
ed purpose of inducing Congress to destroy
the present organized government of that
State, and remand her people to military
rule or to the dictatorship of a Provisional
Governor, with the army and navy of the
United States to enforce his edicts, are rep
resenting here the imperative necessity of a
change in the government of Georgia, on
account of lawlessness, anarchy and lack
of protection to lift;, liberty and property,
and the persecution and cruelty which the
white people are inflicting upon innocent
negroes in tiiat State.
It is important to the character and in
terests of Georgia that the truth should be
known on these subjects, and as one of her
representatives in Congress I take the liber
ty to ask you, as an officer of the S ate, to
furnish me with a brief statement of your
personal knowledge of the truth or false
hood of the representations which are be
ing made of affairs in Georgia, and your
opinion of the effect upon the interests of
Georgia and the United States of the adop
tion of the above measures, which are now
being urged upon Congress.
My object in this communication is to
place your testimony before the Reconstruc
tion Committee, which will meet, here
January 5,1869, and subsequently, it neces
sary, before Congress.
1. Are the lawskof Congress faithfully
and impartially administered ?
2. Is there any organized or unorganized
resistance to the law ?
8. Are the officers of the law faithful to
their duties?
4. What is the disposition, feeling and
treatment of the white people towards the
Wacks?
5. What towards Republicans ?
6. What towards Northern men visiting
or desiring to settle in Georgia?
7. Do the people desire peace and a res
toration of their proper relation to the
States and Government of the Union ?
8. Is there, in your opinion, any necessity
or justification for the proposed destruction
of the present Government of Georgia and
the establishment of a military or pro
visional government ?
Please answer as early as possible.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
Nelson Tift.
The Cotton Crop—Facts and Figures

part of the year that the yield would be larger
this year than it was last; in other words, they
show that tin: crop ol 1867-8 will he close upon
two and a half million bales over the crop ol
1866-7. The following statement, showing the
movements in cotton at the shipping ports,
will be found of interest:
