What Kossuth asks of England an<l

England Kossuth shows great prudence,
as well as respect lor the peace and wel
fare ol other nations. He does not seek

Stales in war with Austria on account of
Jlungary. He said at London, on the
occasion ol his public reception by the
Lord Mayor and Alderman ;
“I repeat what I have elsewhere aN
feady said, let not your sympathies re
plain barren ; help to carry my nation’s
pause to a happy issue. You have the

jed not to ask England to lake arms lor
pur liberties. No, gentlemen, tliqt is the
affair of Hungary ; we will provide for

mand slight interest, as the great majori

is thought die session will not continue

re-affirming die grounds taken by the

Trinities in Utah. —The ac counts from

exiruoiflinnry revolution in tlie Mormon
settlement. Those vjub nl fapaiics, fool
ishly vain of their strength, and believing
themselves secure from the interposition
of the Government by the repiotencss of

The necessity of a strong military

should be a permanant post, and should
be garrisoned by troops enough to chas

to keep them in subjection to the law.

Candors Communication.
In another column will be found :i com
munication signed “ Candor” which was
handed to ns a day or two since, for pub
lication. Candor’ seems to think that
the location of Oglethorpe is decidedly
unfavorable to health. We beg leave to
differ with him. Although it may not
he as healthy as the Mountains, yet we
should as soon risk our health in Ogle
thorpe as at any other point on Flint
River, it is true, the diseases here have
been fatal in a number of rases, especial
ly with children, but we should like to
know of a single location or section of
Country in Georgia, that has not suffered
alike with Oglethorpe during the past
season. We do not wish to be under
stood as holding forth the idea that our
City never will be sickly, but that its lo
cation does not necessarily compel it to
be unhealthy'. Next year we may have
sickness, as it is very frequently the case
that the most healthy locations are the
most unhealihey places durin some pecu.-
liar seasons.
But should Oglethorpe prove un
healthy next season, we concur fully with
our friend “ Candor” in the belief that it
is altogether unnecessary to fly to the up
Country Springs or Mountains for health,
as tlure are many locations near at hand
that are as healthy as any in the State ol
Georgia. We have drank as pore spring
w ater within a mile and a half of Ogle
thorpe as we ever drank any where, and
we have no doubt but the Liverpool
Springs pointed out hy our friend ‘ Can
dor’ as the place far a ‘summer retreat’
are just as pure and conducive to health
as those llwft gush from the foot ol the
mountains of Cherokee.
Wiih all these advantages, therefore,
of healthy loraiions convenient, no man
need fear to locate in Oglethorpe, for if
an occasional sickly year should come,
we may remove our familes to the ‘ Sum
mer Residences’ and still be convenient
to our business.
Rail Road Extent ion to Talahassee.
We notice that the Savannah Geor
gian of the inst contains a long Edi
torial Article and also, a communication-,
in regard to the further extension of the
South Western Railroad. Both Articles
are opposed to ronijnu iig the Road to
Pensacola. They rcommend a change
in the route, go that it will terminate at
Talahassee, instead of Pensacola, they
seem to dread a direct counection with
one of the best harbors on the Gulf, or
‘rather, they fear the direct connection of
other towns wiiji the Gulf by the same
menus. They well know that Ogle
thorpe would reap the profits, and they
he the sufferers.
But suppose the Road is carried to
Talahassee. it will necessarily cross
at the junction ol the Flint nnd Chailii.-
lioocee rivers. Boats to run from Apa
larhacola to that point at all seasons of
the year, and Gancaries from New Ois>
leans could be laid down in Oglethorpe
for about the same as if they came by
Railroad from Pensacole. It is true
there might lie a slight difference in the
amount of travel, hut the commercial in
fluence on our City would be the same
and the destruction of Savannah as a
Grocery market as sure.
The fact is, by the construction of the
S. W. Railroad, Savannah lias placed
herself in a critical position, and she sees
it. She lias built up a “ Ciiy in the
w.oods"’ which is destined to be “ a thorn
in her side” foieter, and it is not strange
at all that her “ Oreaps” should be found
changing their tunes from Pensacola to
Talahassee and from Talahassee to Al
bany or some other place. But all this
will avail nothing, (lie citizens of South-
Western Georgia want a cheaper Groce
ry Ma rkel, and they will not be satisfied
until they obtain it, which can only be
done by existing the Railroad to Pensa.
cola, or some other point on the Gulf, or
to the junction of Flint and Clipttanoo
chee rivers.
Extension of the S. W. Rail Road.
The citizens of Oglethorpe and vicin
ity, feel no little concern in the movement
al the Capitol, to depress the fortunes ol
our City, by an extension of the South-
Western Rail Road. It is to be expected
that the counties below, bordering on the
route authorised by the charter, would
be in favor of the measure, without car
ing who subscribed for stock, whether the
Stale, binding the property of all tax
payers to promote local interests, or w he
ther private capital would take the leap
blindly. We do not blame this sectional
effort to drag the Road, at every hazard,
still farther. All communities are free to
judge and act for their own happiness.
Tlie friends of Oglethorpe claim only the
same privilege. They have rights which
the Legislature cannot properly disre
gaid.
If a subscription of $300,000, or any
other amount be made by the State, to
extend the Rail Road from Oglethorpe to
any given point, tlie object must be for
the good of the greatest number of peo
ple. On no other principle can the
measure rest. Once committed to this
policy, the State will find itself involved
in a system of expenditure from which it
cannot escape with decency. What will
be the result?
Every section of the Slate has equal
claims to Legislative bounty. Oil rais
ing a fund fur distribution, how is the
process conducted? On vvliat shall the
tax operate? Who shall receive the ben
efits? If the quantity of good be the
criterian, and the Legislature shall make
the South-Western Rail Road an exam
ple ol the doctrine, we may properly in
sist—
1. That every County shall have a
Branch Rail Road, and that a tax be laid
on all the property in the State to defray
the expense.
2. That a sufficient number of schools
be supported out of the Treasury, to se
cure a solid education to every child, and
that all the properly in the Stale be taxed
for this purpose.
That property should bear the burthr
ensol Government, is an axiom which no
Republican can gainsay. A tax ol five
per cent, advalorem, one half for Rail
ways and the other half for Education,
would accomplish wonders. The right
to impose this tax is as clearly in the Leg
islature, as the right to tax the people of
(Jeorgia one mill in a thousand dollars for
the extension of the South Western Rail
Road, — an enterprise purely local, on
which the State once refused to take any
risk. Confiding in this declaration of
Legislative policy, and weighing the
chances for private capital to push the
Road farther, a large community, active
and intelligent, have cast their lots in
Oglethorpe. Now, that this very supreme
power of the Slate regardless of its from
er action, should fall into a petty scheme
to pull down and build up cities, is a speci
men of firmness which the people of Geor
gia, in future, will bear in mind when
shaping their interests.
Merely to illustrate, we annex a table
show ing the value of properly in Georgia,
June 1, ISSO, and the proceeds of a lax
of five per cent, for the good of the great
est number:
Dollars, 5 per cent.
Real Estate, 120 663,283 6,033,164,
Personal •* 210,086,254 10,504,062,1
Total, 330,744,537 16,537,226. \
With a revenue of sixteen millions of
dollars, equitably raised, not touching the
poor mi.n who works on the road and
musters for his share of the public burlli- j
ens, tlie [ycgtslattire would find ample
scope for the indulgence of its sympathies.
But when we see the public debt amount
ing to $2,724,722,22, and the surplus in
tlie Treasury only $54,038,09, as set
forth in the Governor’s Message,—and
the necessity which exists for applying
another million of dollars to the relief of
the Stale Road, we think that the Legis
lature ought either to pause for reflection,
or, nerving itself up to desperate resolves,
cover the Stale with Rail Roads and
Schools, out us the fond we have designa
ted. It cannot be that merely breakfast
ing on Ogletimrpe, in the second year of
its existence, will so far satisfy the Legis
lative appetite for doing good to the
greatest number, that no Further luxury
of tlie kind will be sought. What city,
or section of the State, will be the next
victim for dinner? The internal of two
years seems to be quite a provocation of
hunger in the Legislative body.
Mr. EDITOR t In your last number I
noticed an ediorial article, under (lie bead
of “Tlie Prospec ts ol Oglethorpe,” and
7 concur with you in tlie sentiments
which yon have expressed in relation to
the commercial importance and future
destiny of ‘ the city oj the woods'.
Oglethorpe, though yet in i's infancy. ‘
lias already surpassed the expectations
of its must devoted friends, and the
business prospects of the place are as
flatlet ing as the most sanguine could antis
ipaie. But there is one objection to die
city, and only one, and that is; it is!
bound to be sickly, the city is too near :
tlie river and swamp for it ever to be a \
healthy locaijon, this is a truth which ■
connoi be denied, tlie experience of the j
past summer proves that children, more
particularly should not he kept ir. this
city during the summer.
Tlie qntstion then arises; which would
be best, to send the ‘ families to the up
country during the summer months, or
establish a Summer retreat, a lew miles
from Oglethorpe, where the families ol
business, and profesional men might
spend the summer months.— lam of the
opinion that it would be cheaper, and
much more conducive to hen 1 1 li and com
fort, to establish a Summer Retreat a h w
miles from Oglethorpe; or even to build
up a village, and establish schools Sic.,
would be better (linn sending off our fam
ilies to the up country every summer.—
Personal interests have pointed out ad
jacent locations for summer retreat, and
health, but none of those location which
have been offered to the public, are with
out tlie same objection w hich may justly
he urged against Oglethorpe, in regard
to health.
Good cool spring water, is die great
est inducement which can he offered in
the location of a summer residence. Such
a location can be found within two and a
half miles of Oglethorpe ; the place which
I have in view is known as Liverpool
Springs’, these springs are about two
and a half miles from the city, on the ta
ble lands, between Buck and Buck-head
Creeks. The situation is beautiful, and
the spring w ater is not surpassed by any
in Georgia. The health of this location
is undoubtedly good ; and I have no
doubt, favorable arrangements might he
made with the owner of the property, lor
the establishing of a Boarding House and
Bath at the springs.
This subject, demands the attention of
the best friends of Oglethorpe; for if
families are compelled to leave the city
in the summer, for health, the nearer the
city a healthy retreat is found, the bet
ter. CANDOR.
