Rulbert, Saperiuteudeat of the Western and Atlantic Railroad from Chattanooga to Atlanta, was announced as tins next speaker. He called attention to the facl that Chattanooga was the Northern central point of the great system of Southern railways. Chattanooga stands in the lower Cumberland Gap, the grggt water gap through which the river passes ; the great railroad lines from the Atlantic coast, from the Gulf of Mexico, from the direction of New Orleans, all verge to that common point. They converge-there, as explained by Colonel Gaw, fronf absolute necessity occasioned by the conformation of the country. They could not have been built other wise. The first great trunk is the-Western and Atlantic,'from Chatta nooga to Atlanta, 138 miles in length, with an income of $1,250,000, connecting at Atlanta with the Georgia Road, from Atlanta to Au gusta, Ga., 171 miles, with an income of $1,500,000; connecting alsoi with the South Caroliua Railroad, from Augusta to Charleston, and branch to Columbia, S. C., 205 miles, with an income of about $1,250,000, aud with the Wilmington and Manchester Road, Kingsville to Wilmington, N. C., 171 miles, with an income ex ceeding half a million dollars. Returning to Atlanta, as a starting point, we have thence to Macon, Ga., the Macon and Western Road, 103 miles, with an income of about $400,000 per annum ; connecting with the Southwestern Railway to Eufaula, Ala., 143 miles, with branches to Fort Gaines and Albany, Ga., 51 miles, a total of 194 miles of the Southwestern Road and branches, with an income of over SBOO,OOOO per annum. Returning to Macon, we have the road from Ma con to Savannah, Ga., by the Central Road, with its branches to Milledgeville and Augusta, Ga., 28 Squares. 1 Week.

Again, In immediate connection with the latter, are the Florida roads, of an aggre gate length of 300 miles. Earnings, SBOO,- 000. Returning to Macon, from thence to Co lvimbud, Ga., bytlie Southwestern Road, 50 miles, and the Muscogee Road, 50 miles, with total earnings exceeding $500,000. Returning to Macon, we have the Macon and Brunswick Railroad, under contract and being rapidly completed, 185 miles, about 85 miles of which are in running or der. . | v , -f The harbor of Brunswick fe the best South of Norfolk, with 28 feet of witter on its bar at ebb tide, with a'capacity to safe ly float the navies g( the work!. Returning to Atlanta, thence to West Point, Ga., by the Atlantic and West Point Road, 87 miles. Gross earnings, $350,000 per annum. From Wes't Point to Mont gomery, 88 miles. Earnings, $350,000 per annum. Montgomery to Mobile and Pensacola, by* the Montgomery, Mobile and Pensacola Roads,T?2 miles. Gross earnings exceed ing half a million dollars. This presents the railway connections in Georgia, South Carolina and Florida, by the one great trunk line, the Western and Atlantic Railroad, from Chattanodga and Atlanta. The next great trank line penetrating the cotton licit is the Selma, Rome and Dalton Road, completed from Selma, the heart ot the cotton region in Alabama, to Rome, 197 miles ; thence by the Rome Road to Kingston, 20 miles ; thence 60 miles to Chattanooga. This company is rapidly extending its line from Rome to Dalton, Ga., shortening their line 18 miles. This may be called the second great trunk line from Chattanooga, 277 miles in all. This connects at Selma with steam&s for Mobile by the Alabma river, navigable at all seasous, and on the West with the Selma' and Meridian Road, 107 miles, which in tarn connects with the Vicksburgand Meridian Railroad, to Vicks-, burg, Miss., 140 mile3, penetrating the heart of the cotton region of central Ala bama and Mississippi. The third great trunk line was the Ala bama and Chattanooga, from Chattanooga to Meridian, 276 miles, through the Wills Valley, via Elyton and Tuscaloosa. The W ills Valley is particularly rich in coal and iron. The mountains ou either side, for a distance along the route of 60 miles, are filled with these minerals. In constructing this road cuts were frequently made through iron. In some-instances embankments were made of iron ore taken from the excava tions. This road then passes through the Black Warrior coal field, embracing from 5,600 to 7,000 square miles, with iron and coal lying side by side. It is now in process of rapid construc tion, the work progressing ou each end. — Arrangements are also being perfected for its continuance from Meridian to New Or leans, about 160 miles, making this, via Chattanooga and Cincinnati, the shortest line from New Orleans to the Northern railroads, and connecting at New Orleans with the system of Texas ro*ds. The fourth great line from Chattanooga is that from Montgomery to Decatur, Ala bama, about 185 miles, thence, by the Mem phis and Charleston road, to Chattanooga. The former is under contract in the hands of responsible parties, to be completed with in two years. Thus you have two great trunk lines, penetrating Alabama to the Gulf-one through the heart of the cotton region—the other penetrating the great coal and iron regions of that State. The fifth great trunk is that of the Mem phis and Charleston Railroad, from Chatta nooga due Wait to Memphis, on the banka of the Mississippi, 309 miles, with an in come exceeding $1,500,000 per annum. In audition to the five trunk lines, there are the Nashville and Chattanooga, 151 miles, and the East Tennessee and Georgia, 112 miles, Chattanooga to Knoxville, mak ing seven gland trunk lines centering at Chattanooga, amounting, in the aggregate, ta over 8,509 inUes of road in actual opera- ~~~ J / frJ.

Halbert,'after this careful and val uable exposition of the system Os Southern Railway, closed with the following reflec tions : “ Chattanooga being the Northern centre of the great railroad system of the South, and Cincinnati being the centre.of the Southern line of the great railway, system between the Rocky Mountains and the coast—with the completion of this pro posed Southern road, Cincinnati will com mand .the entire trade of the Gulf of Mexi co, almost the entire cotton trade of the South. Time "was when cotton was moved mainly by irater: That time has passed/ The commodity is too valuable. Steamers and sail vessels are too slow. Three-fourths of the cotton crop, since te war, has been moved by rail, although the difficulties in the way are now great, having to ship by roundabout routes. In consequence of this, for three years, the shipment of our cotton crop has been delayed, aud onr planting in terests have suffered. We feel the necessity of a great railway connection with the Northern railway system. “ Chattanooga is nearly on ag air line to t Pensacola; and from there it is only' •eighteen hours’ ran to Havana. With such a grand railroad connection, Cincinnati ought to control the sugar trade of Cuba. [Cheers ] And not otily this, but -the South American trade immediately Soiith of the Gulf, and especially the coffee trade pf Bra zil. [Renewed cheersr] There is no railroad project ou this con tinent so Important to the great interests of the country at large as this single line.— Cincinnati has it in her power, within ten years, to command the trade of the Galt of Mexico, almost the entire trade of the cot ton-States, and the trade of South Ameri ca. It rests with you to say whether you will possess yourselves of this privilege or not, “So far as our being able to aid yoa, I wo aid say that we are poor. The war r alli ed us; our railroads were almost broken up, to repair. which we have contracted large debts'; we are just no. getting upon our feet again; we are not able to subscribe largely, unless it is done collectively, and this I will, upon my return, urge upon my railroad friends, and ask them to unite in building this trunk road from Chattanoo ga to the State line. [Cheers.] Knoxville has been spoken of as a terminus. I think it should be one of the. termini. But we ask of you—all our Southern roads having important business relations for yOu—ask that yon do not place a third party be tween yourselves and us.” [Applause.] GOV/BULLOCK’S REMARKS. Governor Bullock, of Georgia, had been called upon. He said he was not here so much to recommend any particular route, as to show the deep feeling his people had in regard to a direct connection with Cin cinnati, and the desirableness of a closer railroad connection with the North and West. He said the State of Georgia had built the line from Atlanta to Chattanooga, connecting themselves with the railroads in Tennessee, and thought it would be to ‘the interests of Cincinnati and the State of Ohio to aid in the improvement of the sys tem already in operation. “ With regard to the route,” he said, “we would only suggest that the gentlemen of the committee would examine carefully, by aid of the best maps, the railroads already in operation, or for the completion of which provislon.has been made. We are satisfied that the careful examination of the chief railroads which have been built in connec tion with the roads from this city—East, North and West—will show tb&t, by tta construction of a line of trunkroad be tween Cincinnati and Chattanooga, a di rect connection may be made for your com merce, which is now forced to go by a roundabout route between these cities. We therefore, from our own examination, believe that this fs the best point, and we do not recommend It without asking that the gentlemen will pursue the same course of examination by which we have arrived at our conclusions. ■ “ The policy of the State of Georgia has been to foster railroad improvements when ever they were started by private enter prise With a reasonable ground for belief that they would be profitable, either to the AUGUSTA, (Ga,) WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 23, 1869 CINCINNATI A (As' 1 \ J AfAA°^ et An\ J X^X^_ (A=C \ ' &Paritr *”^ s v v // l x s • • A JficktdsritleA w \IX \ /Y \ "X \ / V —, \ *.

This Is pro posed route fro in Cincinnati, which would also be a direefair line route. Colonel Hal bert, the Superintendent of our Strife Rail road, i&.fully informed of the route pro posed, and is advised as to the connection which it is conceived desirable to make. Colonel Gaw is also fully informed of the service and advantage of the proposed line. “The disposition of the people of our Statens to aid as far as they cat fin mak ing a railroad connection with the people of the North and West and to uo every thing to aid the system of internal im provement by which they can jprogu.ro an interchange of commodities, and promote amicable relations existing between differ ent sections of the epuntry.” Terrible Accident. —A most distress ing accident occurred in one of tpe shops of the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad qflrSatur day afternoon. » Thomtts Gearon, a . young mail about eijjfhteen years of age, an employee iti the paint shop, had occasion to shift the belt which puns over the main shaft anti drives the machinery in the" shop in which he is employed. Nat being accustomed *> hand ling belting he attempted to move the belt with his hand. .The result was that his arm was drawn in between the. belt and the wheel, and he was whirled about the, shaft at the rate of eighty times’per miiint i The foreman of the shop, wlio was present, ran to the engineer and' had the machinery stopped as soon as possible, but not till the unfortunate boy had followed the wheel in which he was entangled nearly two hun dred revolutions. Geason was conveyed to his mother’s residence, on the corner of East Broad and President streets,’ where Drs. Harriss and Martin were summoned to'attend him. Upon examination It was found that his left hip had been broken, aud that the bone of his left arm had been crushed in two places between the elbow and the wrist and broken just above the elbow joint. Several severe bruises were found on various parts of the body, but no other bones were broken. *was admjnisterpd and the broken aim ampu tated, and yesterday afternoon the patient was able to converse when not under £he Influence of the chloroform, which Was ap plied as often as he showed sjwnptoins of pain. —Savannah News. - ~ ' Tea.— lt is but a few days since the first consignment of tea was received in Ciaein natti, and the following from the O&ettel of that city will give an idea of what our Western neighbors think of the teas re ceived from the antipodes via San Fran cisco : “ The flavor of teas received by this (pick route, when compared with those by the six months’ circuit of the Horn, is as the smell of new-mown hay is to the lifeless odor of the balqrt hay of commerce. The aroma of a cup of this tea, which hut a few weeks ago was delicately sealed up by tawny hands, steeps the senses iu a ka leidscopic vision of the gorgeonsness. of the Flowery Land, and makes one feel as if China were our next door neighbor, and the Chinaman a man and a brother.” Burglary ai*£ Attempted Rape —At two o’clock, d#y before yesterday morning, an. abiad-bodied negro man entered a resi dence in - street,, and made his way to the apartments, the cloth ing of the sleeping et books containing money. Not content with this about fourteen years old, was sleeping, and attempted to gratify his hellish lusts. She screamed, which aroused her father, who instantly repaired to the scene, bnt before he could apprehend the fiend, he leaped from a second-story window to a . lot be 'i dow and made his escape. [Charleston News, 23d. Attempted Burring ok a Dwelling— Five Persons Burnt, One Fatally.— About 2 o’clock yesterday morning, Mi*. E. E. Calder, residing with her father, Mr. E. C. Prince, at No 1 Ann, Rear Elizabeth street, was aroused by a light in her cham * Jku\ iff which she, with her'two children, one an infant four months old, .slept. She , imipediately jumped up and discovered that the bed was on fire, flu ruing from the bottom. She gave the alarm, and her hither and brother, Mr. J. E. Price, came to Kfer assistance. They reseued the children from the flames, which, with some difficul ty and after two beds were burnt, were ex tinguished. . Mrs. Calder, her brother and father, were burnt about the hands and arms while res cuing the children, both of whom were se verely burnt. One of them, Edwin Charles, about three years of age, lingered in ex cruciating agony until 7 o’clock yesterday afternoon, when ‘death put an .end to his sufferings. At a late hour last night no hopes of the recovery of the babe were en tertained. The injuries sustained by thc ( others were of a comparatively trifling character, and they are now doing well. After the flames were extinguished and the children attended to, an examination of the room was made. A kerosene oil lamp, which Mr. Prince Asserts, positively, at twelve o’clock when he retired, he blew out and placed upon the mantlepiece, was fonnd under the bed. It was out, having, of course, been extinguished With the beds aud bedding. The lamp was touching the washboard of the house, which was par tially burnt. The family have no suspicion of who the incendiarv was, or what motive prompted him to this fiendish deed. The fiend must have gotten into the house in the early part of the.night, when all of the family were in the back portion, and concealed himself. How he got out is yet a mystery, as there is no trace to show where he made Jiis egress. Chief Engineer Nathans will give the matter a thorough investigation, and will do all that can be done to bring the perpetrator to justice. The shop next door to Mr. Prince’s resi dence, kept by Mr. H. Wohlkin, has, with in the last year, been set on lire three times, but the flames were extinguished before any damage was done. [Charleston News , 22fL Release of J. Hollis Rivers from Custody. —This gentleman who, on the 18th of April, 1868, was arrested without affidavit or warrant by the military au thorities upon the charge of murdering Captain George C. Heyward, on the Ist of March, 1867, and incarcerated for four months in Castle Pinckney without being allowed the privilege of consulting his friends or of employing counsel, has been released by Judge William Schley, of the Superior Court of Chatham county, Geor gia. After remaining in Castle Pinckney the time stated, he was allowed to enter into bonds with, security for his appearance at the next term of the Court of General Ses sions at Beaufort. He appeared at that term of said court, and although the grand jury declined to find a trne bill against him, as was the case at the next term of the court, the Judge refused to discharge him from his recognizance. Rivers then eugaged in the business of rafting from South Carolina to Savannah. On the 3d day of May last, the Governor of South Carolina issued liis proclamation offering a reward of one thousand dollars for the arrest of the murderer or murderers of Captain Heyward, with evidence tocon vict. On the 18th of May last, Rivers was arrested on the Savannah river, about [ot*r allies below the city, and committed t 6 tlfe county jail, to await a requisition from the : Governor of the State of Spnth Carolina, ; vitere he remained until Saturday last.

PURIFY YOUR BLOOD- Bern's emPARiiiA. o F ALL the remedies that have been discover ed during the present age for the “ thousand ills that flesh is heir to,” none equal this wonderful prepara tion. Only 16 years have elapsed since the discover er (who spent a decade in studying, experimenting aud perfecting lt,t first introduced it to the pnbltc, and it is already rectumized by the most eminent phy sicians in all parts of the country to he the. roost sur prising and effective remedy for certaiu dtseases of which they have knowledge. All other Compounds or Syrups of this Root have hitherto tailed to command the sanction of the Facul ty, because, on being tested, they have been founl to contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the good effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the health of tho patient. It is not so with Hurley’s preparation. Tnta is the pure aDd genuine extract of the root, and Will, on trial, be found to effect a certain and periect cure of the following complaints : Affections of the Bones, Habitual Costive ness, Debility. Diseases the Kid neys. Dispepsia, KryslpeHs, Female Irregularities. Fistula, Ml Shin Diseases, Diver Complaint, Indigestion, Pihs, Pul monary Diseases, Scro fula, or King’s Evil, Syphilis, aud all Impurities of theß'ood. Hurley’s Ague Tonic. PERFECTLY RELIABLE. The only remedy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and Fever, that is or can be depended upon is HUR LEY’S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands cured by using it who have. tried the usual remedies without benefit. WORTHY OF 4TTENTIOH. To Dr. Thai. A. Hurley ; I hereby certify that during last year I was attack ed with the Ague whilst in Vicksburg, Miss. l and used -Several popular medicines with hot temporary relief. On reaching home tlie disease returned in a worse type, if possible, when my medical attendant ordered Quinine in large doses—frequently as high as 60 grains per day, and which must have cost me near ly SIOO. 1 consulted Dr. Smith, of Louisville, and found he prescribed quinine and arsenic combiued, which I refused to take, preferring to let the disease take its course. I was almost bloodless, extremely exhausted, and pronounced with enlarged Liver and Bp een. About thiß time the advertisement of Hur ley’s Ague Tonic appeared in a city paper, and I de termined to give it atrial. I did so, and have no rea son to regret it. One bottle restored me completely, and since that time I have seen neatly a hundred cases in whjch it acted with equally happy results, and would oertainly recommend it as preferable to any cither tonic beforo the public.

I hoard your Hurley Bitters highly spoken of, and tried a bottle, with little faith in it before I commenced, and to my surprise and ioy, before I finished one bottle,.l felt a great deal better, and firmly believe that on one or two occasions it was the means of saving and prolonging my life.
