CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. AUGUSTA. MONDAY MORNING, JULY 1. The space occupied by the proceedings of the meeting ol our citizens on Saturday last, which are now presented, leaves us no room for other matters of a general interest. The character however of its measure, embracing ns they do, objects ofthe deepest interest to our citizens—to the citizens of Savannah and the intermediate country —to the Georgia Rail Road and Ranking Company—and to the public generally, will make ample amends for the absence ofother intelligence. We are informed upon the authority of a gen tleman direct from Milledgeville, that little or no hope is entertained of the recovery of Gov. Gil mer, the symptoms of his disease having assumed a more decided and alarming character. Mexican Dkiit, —We learn from good author ity says the N Orleans Louisianian, of the 24th, that the conversion of the Mexican debt, amounting to upwards of 50,000,000 of dollars, effected about two years ago by F. de Livardi, &, Co. of London has been at length ratified by the Mexican government and forwarded to England, by the last English packet from Vera Cruz.— This among other advantages, secures to the bondholders one-sixth of the whole duties collected in the ports of Vera Cruz and Tampico in pay ment ofthe interest on the new bonds. We conversed yesterday with a most intelli gent gentleman, whose occasions have led him through a large portion of the grain growing <:ountry of the Union, and who expresses the Opinion that the yield of wheat will be greater, by lar, than it ever has been, in any single season, since the settlement of the country. There is more ground in wheat than ever was before, and the product will be greater, taking the whole country acre for acre, than it ever has been. We know not whether this opinion be correct, but we have confidence in it.— Baltimore Chronicle. Another Mammoth —The St. Louis Gazette ofthe 10th instant says, that a Mr. Cock, resi ding 23 miles south-west of that city, is raising the largest Mammoth bones ever seen in the wes tern country. From the extremity of one tusk to that of the other is supposed to measure 15 feet. Trial of Mackenzie. —An extra from the office of the “Ontario Messenger” gives a short account of the trial of William L. Mackenzie, who was indicted before one of the United States Courts for a violation of the neutrality law of 1818. The evidence adduced was a recapitulation of the facts connected with various expeditions that have been raised in this country for invasion of the British Territory. Mackenzie conducted his cause in person, unaided by council, and without introducing testimony, that which he of fered being rejected as legally inadmissible. He addressed the court and jury in a speech about eight hours long, in which was detailed the whole •history of his connection with the Canadian in surrections. The jury, after retiring for three hours, returned a verdict of guilty. The sen tence of the Court, which was that he should 1 e imprisoned in the county jail of Monroe county for eighteen months and pay a fine of ten dollars, was pronounced immediately after the verdict was rendered.- -N. Y. Eve. Post. * Columbus, Mississippi, June 15.—The cot ton crop was never more early or more promising in this neighborhood, than it is the present year. On many farms it is beginning to bloom, and on some, bolls have been formed. We were shown the other day, a full bloom taken from the field ■ of Mr. John Connell. He tells us the blooms arc fast opening all over his field. Wo have also been shewn a boll as large as a man’s thumb from the field of Mr. Hoskins, a few miles from town. This is the earliest we ever knew. Wc believe it was some three or four weeks later last year, be fore the bolls were formed. Wo will stake old Lowndes against any county in East Mississippi for early cotton, early corn, and early vegetables of every kind. Public Meeting. An adjourned meeting of the citizens of Au gusta, was holden at the City Hall, on Saturday, the 39th of June, 1839. His honor the Mayor, in the chair. Mr. Harper, from the committee appointed at the previous meeting, submitted the following report:— The Committee appointed under the authority of the meeting of the citizens of Augusta, held on the 22d inst., having taken into consideration the various subjects referred to them, respect fully report: That the interesting communication from the Council of Savannah, relative to a continu ous Railroad communication between that city and this, first claimed their attention; and while they have come to the conclusion that such a i connection would be highly advantageous to both cities, and to a large portion of the State of Georgia, the/deem it their duly to express on this occasion, the opinion which they have form ed, that the improvement of the water comniuni calion between the two cities would be still more advantageous, and that the expense of the latter measure, would be trifling when compared with that of the former enterprize. It is believed that it will be found on investigation that the ini- provement now most required 'n this river is lire deepening of the sand bars, and that this con be most easily and permanently effected by tbc con traction of the current, to such a narrow space in low river, as to afford sufficient depth so. light boats at all seasons. Your Committee have had little hesitation in recommending for the adoption of the meeting a resolution, proposing that the City Council should guarantee the bonds of the Georgia Hail road and Banking Company, or subscribe for stock of that Company to an amount not exceed ing three hundred thousand dollars, on such terms as may bo agreed on by the two corpora tions.. They believe that not only this city but the whole Southern AtlanticStatcs, and the vast and 1 fertile regions on the waters of the Mississippi and its tributary streams, have a deep interest in the speedy completion of that line of Railroad communication, between the Tennessee river and ‘he Atlantic, of which the Georgia Railroad forms so important a part. They would rejoice if the adoption of the resolution which they rec ommend, should aid in securing to the. Georgia Railroad and Banking Company, the command of that credit and-those resources, to which their prudent management, unexampled success and brilliant prospects, so justly entitle them. \ our Committee have after mature deliberation, concluded to recommend that the application of the South Carolina Canal and Railroad Compa ny, lor leave to enter the corporate limits of Au gusta, be granted, under certain terms and re strictions. In conformity with these views; the following resolutions arc respectfully recommended to the adoption of the meeting. S Resolved, That a close commercial union be tween the cities of Savannah and Augusta, would promote the prosperity and redound to the honor of both cities and of the State of Geor gia. Resolved further, That for the attainment of this object, a Railroad from the city of Augusta, to some convenient point of intersection with the Central Railroad, for which a charter lias already been obtained, should be constructed as speedily as practicable. Resolved further, That the City Council of Augusta be, and they are hereby respectfully re quested to unite with the corporate authorities of Savannah, in a memorial to the General Assem bly at their next session, praying for the State’s aid by a loan of its bonds for the sum of $101),- 000 to each city, to be used, if deemed expedi ent in the contemplated work. Resolved further, That public spirit and self interest unite in claiming from the citizens of Chatham, Burke, and Richmond counties, liberal investments of private capital in aid ol the enter prize. Resolved further, That the constituted au thorities of Augusta and Savannah be requested to unite in a respectful application to the next General Assembly of Georgia, to make an ade quate appropriation for deepening, under the su perintendence of a competent engineer, the shal low bars of the Savannah river, so as to admit of Steamboat navigation in low river. Resolved, That the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company, bo respectfully advised to ef fect such a loan abroad, as will enable them to extend their road wcstwardly with unabating en ergy. Resolved, That confiding in the responsibility of the Company, and the success of the enter prize, the City Council of Augusta be respect fully requested to offer their guarantee of the bond or bonds of the Georgia Railroad and Bank ing Company, for an amount notcxcecding three hundred thousand dollars, and payable within not less than five years, or to subscribe for three thousand shares of (he stock of said Company, upon such terms as may be agreed upon between the two corporations, and to issue and deliver to said Company the bonds of the city, payable a» \ above, for said stock. • That it is expedient to permit the South Carolina ('anal and Railroad Company, to extend their road within the corporate limits of the 1 city of Augusta, upon like restrictions as those imposed upon the Georgia Railroad and Bank ing Company,* and upon the further restriction, that the depot of said company shall not be south of Reynolds street, west of Campbell street, nor cast of Elliot street, and upon such other restric tions as the City Council may deem expedient. Resolved, That it is inexpedient to exempt from taxation the property which the said Com pany may hold within the city of Augusta. By order and behalf of said Committee. JAMES HARPER, Chairman. Augusta, June 89, 1839. The foregoing resolutions, in regard to the communication between the cities of Savannah nd Augusta, were taken up and adopted. The resolutions in regard to the Georgia Rail Road and Banking Company, were also taken taken up and adopted. The resolutions, in regard to the proposition of the South Carolina Canal and Rail Road Com, pany, wore taken up; when Mr. W. M. D’An tignac submitted the following as a substitute therefor, and for so much of the report of the j committee as relates to that subject. The undersigned, a member of the committee J of n ; ne, appointed under a resolution of the mee- | ting held on Saturday the22d inst. regrets the is olated condition in which an irrcsistable sense of duty has placed him in that committee. In the consideration of the memorial of the South Carolina Canal and Rail Road Company, ] he has been actuated by a sincere devotion to , tliu best interests of the city, and feels the emhai russment ot liis situation greatly increased from the fact that ho stands opposed to some of the most intelligent of his fellow citizens, and alone in the committee. We have met as residents of Augusta, and not as citizens of Georgia; the question, therefore, for our consideration, is not whether the termination of the Carolina Rail Road on this side ofthc Riv er, will conduce to the interest of Georgia, (and he thinks it would not) but it is whether such a termination would or would not promote the in. tercsts of Augusta; hence, the question is a local one, and in its local bearings alone, has he though l ' it his duty to view it. The friends ofthe application and himself agree most fully in reference to the immediate effect of terminating tin; Road within the corporate limits of the city, and differ only in regard to the ulti mate result of that effect; he and they agree that the termination ot the Road in this city would make it more convenient for the merchants of the interior to go to Charleston than it is now; they agree that it would make it less expensive for them (o bring their goods from that city than it is now; but they do not agree in the hypothesis that in proportion as the facilities of reaching a [arge seaport town from an inland one are increa sed, the number going to the seaport town is de creased. Nor do they agree in the assumption, that in proportion as we lessen the expense of getting goods from Charleston, will we increase the amount of goods sold in Augusta ; he thinks the opposite, will he found the inevitable result, of permitting the Road to cross the River. If the freight, drayago, and other expenses consequent upon buying goods in Charleston n ar| d returning with them to Augusta, amounts to 5 per cent upon the purchase, arc we of Augus ta, not thereby' enabled to sell goods 5 per cent higher than they are sold in that city, and yet furnish the purchaser as low as his Charleston goods would have cost him on their arrival here, Now he would like to know by what process of reasoning, gentlemen arrive at the conclusion, that the merchants of Augusta would he better enabled to compete with Charleston, if this per cent or any portion of it was removed? And it should be borne constantly in mind that Charles ton is our great rival, the only one from which we need apprehend any danger, and that the mer chants oftliis city do not depend upon the Caroli na Road, as the means of bringing their supplies —the river affording a much cheaper mode of transportation. Then why deprive your mer chants of the advantages which result from the accidental circumstance of location, when it is to that circumstance alone, that they arc indebted for their ability to compete with the merchants op j ' the rival city of Charleston. Remove the barrier i which at present exists, and that city is brought more immediately in competition with you—will it then be possible for Augusta, an inland town, greatly deficient in capital, to compete with Charleston, an old and populous city of the At lantic, with redundant capital—untiring energy and a devotion to her commerce, absolutely unpar. alleled in the history of America. All know, that notwithstanding the present in convenience of getting to Charleston, and ex pense of bringing goods from there, many of the merchants of the interior, are induced to seek their supplies in that city; can any man assert, that if this inconvenience and expense was les sened, the number going there would decrease, and yet this is the result of their argument. Would Charleston make the application if she expected such a result? She knows too well the benefits which have heretofore inured to her from the Road, not to sec that her trade would he in creased and that of Augusta lessened. It has been urged, that should the council re fuse the application, the Carolina Road mill find means of crossing the river in defiance of their decision and that as the Company are now wil ling to conic under restrictions, it is polite for us to make such terms, as will secure us from us much of the evil incident to the termination op the Road within our limits as practicable. > Now in his opinion the civil authorities of An gusla, cither have, or havo not the legal right to prevent the Company from terminating their road within the corporate limits of the city; and if they have the right and an attempt is ever made to evade its exercise, he has no fears but that means will be found adequate to the exigency ofthc case, and the triumph of the laws. Some of the friends of the application, insist that if we refuse to grant the request, the Compa ny will buy the bridge and make it free for all vehicles passing to and from their Road; now if this be consummated, it is apprehended that the injury resulting to Augusta would he more than if there was no bridge to cross. Certainly not. ’Tis said that in refusing the application, we incur the odium, which attaches to all measures purely selfish —lie has yet to learn that it is a purely selfish measure, to place yourselves in the breach which threatens your own annihila tion and the utter ruin of Savannah. Do wo in dicate selfishness in the promptness with which the application from Savannah has been met; do we not here evince a desire to establish a Rail Road communication with the Atlantic; do we not here shew to the people of the interior, a wil lingness to furnish them all the facilities of which we do, or can partake, the Carolina Rail Road be ing as accessible to them as to us? For one, he must protest against this Charles ton effort, to destroy Savannah and make Augus tacompletcly subservient to her. And to test the sense of the meeting, he oilers the following resolution. Resolved, Tjiat jt would not only be inexpc client, but greally prejudicial to the best interest of both Augusta and Savannah, to permit the South Carolina Kail Road to terminate, within the cor porate limits of this city. WM. M. D’ANTIGNAC. On motion of Gen. Glascock, both the reso lutions under consideration, and the substitute were laid on the table for the present, i Gen. Glascock then submitted a resolution, which was modified to read as follows, and ajkJptcd. That a committee of five be np- ' pointed by the chair, to enquire into the expe diency of recommending to the City Council, the purchase of the two bridges across the Sa vannah river at Augusta; to ascertain on what terms the purchase can be. made, and report to n.i \ subsequent meeting, l' **-On motion of C. J. Jenkins, Esq., it was Resolved, That a copy of the resolutions adopted by this meeting, be signed by the chair man and secretary, and handed to the City Council. The meeting then adjourned, subject to the call ot the Mayor, whenever the committees in reference to the Bridges, is ready to report. A. GUMMING, Chairman. Wm. T. Gould, Secretary.
