Fetridge, of Boston, Mass., was passing along a street in New Orleans, La., he heard the report of fire-arms, und saw two men firing at each other with revolvers. A ball from the pistol of one of the warriors cut off one of his whiskers.” Wo notice the above going the rounds of our exchanges. It was a close shave, but Fetridge is the “ Balm of a Thousand Flowers ” man, and, by timely application of his Balm, will repair the damage done his whisker—any other man, (to whom the Balm was not accessible,) would have been inconvenienced by the stray shot. See advertisement of the Bahn in ano ther column. Judge Hammond- Our readers have been advised of the appoint ment, by the Governor, of Col. Dennis Ham mond, of Coweta, to the Judgeship of the new Judicial circuit, created by the last Legislature. We should have before expressed our sincere gratification with the appointment, but for the press upon our columns, which has excluded many other matters. We will say now, how ever, that the choice has been wisely made, and with a view to the best interests of tho Circuit, which does not embrace, within its limits, one man better qualified for the position, and there are few indeed, in the limits of the State, who more happily blend all the rare qualities req si. site for the Bench than Judge Hammond. Muy he long live to enjoy the honors thu un expectedly but deservedly bestowed, for we know tho voters of his Circuit too wi ll appre ciate his abilities, to allow themselves robbed of them by any other aspirant, when the time of his appointment expires. Fire*? An alarm of tiro was raised about I o’clock, on yesterday (Monday) morning, und upon pro ceeding to tho spot, it was found to have origi. anted in a smoke-house, upon the premises of Mr. Reuben Haynes. A strong wind, approx imating to a gale, prevailed, and before the en gine could be brought to play upon it, the fire had attained too much headway to lx? subdued. The dwelling hou■<- and kitchen, adjoining, were favored by the direction of the wind, and the timely exertions of our active fire company pre vented any serious damage to cither. The smoke house and content-;, consisting of provis ions carpenters' tools, and cooking utensils, valued in all at about S3OO, were entirely con sumed. We have heard nothing as to the ori gin of tho conflagration, which, had the direc tion of tin- wind been different, would, indeed, have proven a serious calamity. Book Votices.

Mr K. was engaged in ginning sea island cotton on u roller gin. when he was informed by a scr 'aut in att- udau.e that the liut was on fire in the »•••' a where it was received from the gin. Ile immediately plunged into the lintroom Varou.;'i a s-.n.x1l aperture* left for uncloggitig t! -' mouth ol the gi... for the purpose of extin gu :ug the fire, which had not yet eaught in ll.im. ;■ ; but shocking to relate, his entrance into the r.-ein produivd a current of air which 1111111 xi itely fanned the tire into flame, aid in rolled to.e whole in coufl.rgratiou. Mr. K. ,t --tempting to «scape, rushed to the door of the liutroom, an.l called out for assistance ; but most uufortun.it-ly Cue d. or was fastened on the outside with a padlock, mid the kev at the »i:ne in bis pocket. Hi - unfortunate man was ~.ikeet from the devouring elements. a few hours after, nearly consumed—both arms and lees burned entirely off, and only a small portion ot his body nmahxxi t-> be interred by his weep- I iag friends. Americas Rules fob Russia.—lt is that a Russian agent was in Worcester. Muss a few days since, und made a contract with a mauufa<tare- there for several thousand rifles They the Sharp pattern with some Belligerent. The contemplated concentration of English forces in Canada, intelligence of which was , brought by the Baltic, is regarded by many as . intended to intimidate this government from too decisive action upon the disputes which have , arisen between the United States and England. , Several considerations go to make this suppo- , sition improbable, and, without being advised ( of the real intention of the concentration, we think it safe to conclude that John Bull, with 1 all his ZmZZying propensities would hardly at- . tempt the frightening process upon this govern- ' ment, mere particularly since the character of Jonathan’s pluck is pretty generally understood | in that particular quarter. It is much more ’ probable that the policy of convenience dicta- ' ted Canada as -i point of concentration than ( that any menacing designs were contemplated ; in the selection of the locality ; and, we will - venture to say that the former reason will be found the true one. -Still, it. is well enough to ' keep a watchful eye upon a ministry so corrupt, and with such anti-American proclivities as that of England. While it is evident that pop ular opinion in England is decidedly against a rupture with this country, no feeling of safety from such an interruption of the relations of the two governments, on that account, should be too freely indulged in by our people, since the vox populi, and the vox Cabinet there are not always synonymous, and whffber the commer cial public of England rely upon the general clamor against a war, or not, it should give us no confidence in a ministry which has deceived the commercial world so often. It becomes us as a people, now, to have a jealous eye upon every movement of that ministry, to place no reliance in anything but our own judgment; and* while these false alarms are calculated to un necessarily excite the country, we do not know but the watchfulness they indicate is of more service than the little injury they do is harmful. Let us not forget, however, that watchfulness is of little value without judgment in sounding alarms, and while we are prompt to herald the indications of a storm, let us not magnify them by our fears, but rather keep the country cool to net wisely when the storm does come. Our I government is upon the alert, and if there is any ■ powder in the atmosphere, has in all probabili ty detected it before this, and when the proper timt*arrivcs will draw aside the veil of specula tion which shrouds the actual situation of af fairs, and exhibit them as they are. Speculation I • tempered by reason is well enough, and should not I ! be discouraged, but when the veil is lifted, we j opine there will be an amusing tumbling down of very logically constructed prophecies, which will perhaps detract from the elevated estimate some editors place upon their prescience. We hall see. Donelson on Native Americanism, The nominee of the Philadelphia Convention is most ; ufortunately situated with respect to his antededents. He was at one time editor of the Washington Union, and bitterly opposed to the administration of the very man suspend ed to whose coat-tail he hopes t ride into office. The files of that paper contain the tecord of his past political life which the present editors of the Union are industriously republishing, no doubt to the serious disquietu le of the gentle man. This record contains ail the good he ever did, and when placed in contrast with bis present degenerate position shows him up in an unenviable light. We shall from time to t ine ava l ourselves of the mass of testimonials, thu, furnished, us of his remarkable prowess ns a po litical acrobat. His position as the choice of the anti-foreign party, makes the following extract of peculiar interest to those editors who have so far forgot ten their “ intensely American ” proclivities tw to i nn up his name over colums once devoted to the bitterest opposition to foreigners. Os these foreigners, whom these fame editors once denoun ced ns ruining the country, he made the following l remark in an editorial of the Union. ‘•lmmigration.—The Republic of Wednes day contains a long article on immigration to the United States. It portrays in vivid colors the rapid aud uupiiralleld increase in the number of those who are seeking our shores. The Irish emigration is so great that the court journal classes it among the phenomena of history.’ We (Andrew Jackson Donelson) are glad to see this euigralion from the Old World. I: brings to ns.the physical for®? we need to fell the for est and Io build our improvements. We have yet, and wili have for many long years, scope im.l range enough for their industry and enter prise. But is was not oar intention to discuss this branch of the subject at the present time. The native party is now prostrate, and it will ba time enough to commence the discussion when another attempt is made by the i'edeh ALtSTS TO REVIVE THE PRINCIPLES OF THE ALIEN LAWS.” Hew is right then, but now—how is he? The standard bearer of a party whose hatred I for tktse same emigrants amounts to a mania. But, no matter what has intlueiiciil his change of sentiment, the somerset is not more complete than those of the several editors of the Anwa’an press who advocate his elevation to the Vice Pr sideucy. Some have stoutly refuse*] to m ike the experiment, amongst whieh. we find the (• "r*ia Citizen ; others, however, are try ing it -11.--Augusta C’niiaicle & Sentinel, the Join ■ml i and the &•-.

Andrew Jackson Donelson, who has been placed in the ne.xt highest posi tion lie could possibly occupy in the American | Party, and who will, therefore, te accepted by i that party as good authority, used tho follow I ing langua-ze in an article attacking Mr. Fill-1 more: If the public sentiment had not been mis led oy such letters as Mr. Fillmore wrote to the abolition societies of New York, and by the eloquence of Mr. Webster, denouncing, as he admits he did, the institution of slavery as a curse, aud tho.extension of onr territory in the South as a violation of the constitution, the dangers foreseen by Washington would not now be the subject of humiliating explanation aud apology on the part of tho President and bis cabinet, and the means by which tho whig party hope* to perpetuate its power.” He also contended that the election of Mr. Fillmore would . unsettle the slavery question. Hear him : “We shall be ready to show that the ascen dency of such a party (the whig party) will be not only calamitous to the future interests of the couatry, but that it will derogate from much of what has been done by the tried pa triots of the land heretofore to preserve for our institutions their republican energy mid dura bility. We venture events say that a just analysis of the view Mr. Webster has taken of the compromise and slavery questions will prove that the re-election of Mr. Fillmore will unset tle all that has been yet done to deprive those questions of the power of disturbing hereafter the peace and tranquility of the country.” “If the election of Mr. Fillmore was then cal culated to unsettle all that had been done to deprive these questions of the power of disturb ing hereafter the peace and tranquility of the country," how can it be expected his election now, when things are already so “ unsettled,” will do anything towards preserving the Union his party pretend such an affection for. The | man in whom they have equal confidence with | their candidate for the presidency, declares that! candidate, ia effect, a disturber ot tho Uuiotq i and responsible for its unsettled condition, and | I yet they are so reckless of th • Union they pro-' fess to regard as so sacred, as to desire the ele-1 vation of such a candidate to a position where i it will be in his power to rend the Union to j fragments! THE Issue. | There is no proposition clearer, to the reflect- i j ,ug mind, than that, in the approaching presi i dential canvass.there is but one issue before the ! people, and it is not clearer than it is ttniver i sally appreciated, in every section of the Union. Twist it as you will, trump up as many side issues as the fruitful invention of outsiders may suggest, the fact stands out, “ plain as the nose 1 on a man’s face,” that the contest will be be ' tween the pro and anti-slavery men of thecoun f try. The great question of slavery will be ' brought to the decision of votes—to the actual test of the ballet-box. The division® which ■ which have heretofore existed among the m’ni- • ions of abolitionism, have been healed—thedis jointed mass has been consolidated intou great ' Black Republican party, which, if it does not ■ embrace every enemy of the institution of slave : ry, is, at least, confident, of the indirect support • of the stray factions, which hang back from 1 fraternizing with the party. It may be confi ‘ dently asserted, that .he enemies of the South • .ire, at last, drawn into liue, and have assumed ’ an u. tuxl, tangible shape, suscepitblo of effectual attack, uud capable of substantial defenee and 1 aggression. The hydra-heads which once puz zled us to know how to attack, have merged ' into one, and that one, confident in its strength, ’ throws down the gauntlet and challenges us to ’ the fray. ! In view of this fuel, it liecoutes a question with Southern men, whether their course in the ’ opening canvass shall be influenced by any oth er issue that the one thus evidently and sabstan - tially thrust before their eyes—an issue a liieb ! cannot be evaded, but which, on the contrary must, from its very nature be met. It is dear i ly ettled that this all-absorbing issue ns swal- I lo ved np every minor one, and every reasoning man must comprehend the sheer folly of drag ’ ging into the quarrel any other question, no ’ matter what mig.it have been its importance In • times past. Yield to these side-issues ail the ‘ importance claimed for them—admit, for the ' argument’s sake, that the dangers apprehended by our American friends are real and not imag' I inary, that their charges against foreigners and 1 Catolics are true —still, issue this dividing them from the Democracy, shrinks into puny insignifi cant before the aetuai danger which threatens • the constitution and the country. Will thechil- I dren of a house quarrel over a bon' 1 when the I j incendiary is placing his torch beneath their , j homestead ? , i Let any man set down and reflect upon the I I situation of the country, the concentrated fa~ naiicUm which threatens it, the method of th e madness of it* enemies and tlieir unalterable purpose to effect its desttUfctiQn, their deafness to the voice of reason and remonstrance, twd their utter disregard for ronstitutional obliga tions. and if he rises without a settled eonvic- i tion of the prime importance of the united ac ! tion of the friends of tne constitution and the country, liis mind is incapable of corn.x't con clusions, or is of questionable sanity. Every troe friend of the country, do matter what hfe posi tion or his politics. if lie is animated by cue ! spark of patriotic feeling, ot one idea above : party rancor and prejudice, must and docsj in i terualiv acknowledge the al.*solute necessity for ■ throwing aside everything but bis patriotism, I sacrificing every prejudice aud preference iinxm. > sistent witli the effectual defenee oi the consti ; tution from its assailants, and uniting with his !

To the Houac of Representatives The Bill, originating in the House, aud passed by both Branches of. the General As sembly, to author ze the construction of a Rail Road “from some point in the county of Un ion, or in the county of Fannin, wh’ch may be agreed upou by the Directors or a majority of them, hereinafter mentioned, running up the Valley of Little Hightower River, in the coun ty of Union, to connect with the Northeastern Railroad, [now contemplated] in the county of Rabun or Habersham, or with some other Railroad, [or contemplated Railroad] and to grant corporate powers and privileges to the same,” has been laid before me for Executive sanction. I regret that an imperative sense of duty compels me to withhold my approval of the bill. Even upon questions involving consti tutional power, it is unpleasant to differ with the General Assembly; it is more unpleasant to differ upon grounds of mere public policy; and in this case, my embarrassment is increased by the reflection, that tho refusal of executive sanction will carry disappointment to a par, ion of my fellow citizens, who doubtless take a live ly interest in the contemplated enterprise, aud whose welfare I would gladly promote by any coroperation computable with public duty.— Such, however, are my convictions of the fatal consequences which must necessarily follow the construction of the Railroad contemplated l*y this charter, that I cannot hesitate. After much deliberation, I defined clearly my position, in relation to our system of State internal improvememts, in my message to the General Assembly, at the begining of its pres ent session. I said, “to comprehend fully their ' legitimate scope of action, the Legislature I should assume a lofty standpoint, from which j they can survey the whole field. Holding in ' her hand the key which opens the Atlantic to 'I the West, the State should so use her power, ' as to force, by a compulsion mutually advan- I tageous, the travel and produce which seek the I ship, to become tributary to her own wealth, I prosperity aud greatness. Looking to this as the light to guid her general policy, she should | likewise, as the proximate motive of action. ' keep in view tlie developement of her natural ’ resources, and the advancement of the people. I in all the elements of the highest and test ci- I vilization. Henc j the paramount necessity of well defined and well regulated system, in our sch'.me of internal improvements.' It does not follow that a charter for a railroad must be granted, as a matter of course, when asked.— Au enlightened Legislature, comprehending fully the system, its design, and what is beri calculated to advance the general welfare, will enquire whether the charter asked is in harnio ny with that system, what will be the bearings of its connections without the State, what its effect in developing our resources, and what its relations to other works under which large in terests have become, or are likely to become involved and invested. The system-in Georgia, though i its infancy, is yet sufficiently advan ced to indicate the ultimate shape which it is likely to assume. Ou iter eastern bo.der. she has three points which have formed, or areseek ing to form, connections with the various sec tions .internal and external, who-e productions will foster tlieir growth and prosperity. These points are Augusta, Savannah, and Brunswick. The two former ate Connected with Tennessee and Alabama by roads completed ; and the lat ter possessing a harbor, unsurpassed by any on the Atlantic coast, south of the Chesapeake, and flanked by an extensive territory, covered by the best Pine-field in the world, and of won derful agricultural fertility, seeks a connection with the vast region that skirts the Gulf of Mex ico. In a word, these throe cities from the basis of our system, and the lines through the State, which connect or propose to connect them, with her own great divisions within, and exhaustless feeders without, constitute its frame work or skeleton. Its symmetrical completion should both define and limit the policy of Leg islative actio I will now add, that our scheme of internal improvement, is not only stampe 1 with the symmetry of system, but with the .forecast of palpable design. The one is shadowed forth in the above extract from mybi-enuial message, and the other is pointed out with the unerring certainty of an index finger, by the geographical position’ of Georgia. Spanning from the At lantic to the Southern spur of the Alleghany mountains, she forms the neck of a mighty cor nn-copia, whose larger end extends to the em brasure of the valleys which are fertilized by the'washings from the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains. Hence the design of our system is, that this boundless territory of teeming pro duction, in seeking t lie commercial marts of the world, shall pour through onr own State, and be emptied into her own cities aud seaports Where is the Georgian whose bosom does not expend with pride, as he contemplates this pic ture of grandeur, and the glorious prospect of the future? Shall our State fulfil her missien of pr sperity and power or will she, by improvi dent ligislation, throw away the controling ad i vantages of her position which have been so I liberally bestowed by a beneficient Providence? | Never, never ; but let, her, J repeat, “so use j her power, as to force, by a compulsion mutii i ally advantageous, the travel and produce which seek the ship, to become tributary to her own wealth, prosperity and greatness. ’ Such is the system, and such the design of our scheme of internal improvements; and in my humb'e judgement, the bill under consideration is in : compatible with both. 1. is not in harmony with our system. It I authorizes “ the building of a rail road from : I some point in the county of Union, or in the! county of Fannin, which may be agreed upon j by the Directors of said rail road, or a majori- i ly of them hereinafter mentioned, runninsnp the i valley of Little Hightower river in the county | of Union, to connect with the North-eastern I Railroad, [now contemplated in the countv of| Rabun or Habersham.] or with some other i railroad or contemplated railroad.” Hence, its i western terminus is evidently, to be on the Ten- ■ nessee line in the vicinity of the Duck Town j mines. Where will tx? its eastern terminus ? i That will be fixed, °f course, by the capital that I will be invested in its constr ction. The bill! contemplates that it will recmire two millions of! dollars to build this road. From whence is this capital to come ’ Does any reasonable man believe that it eau be furnish d by the connties I of Fannin, Union and Rabun ? It must come] th“n from Charleston, and those engaged in the] Copper business at Duck Town : and being i , thus derived, it will fix its eastern terminus at I : the most favorable point of connection with the i I Rabun Gap railroad. Therefore so far from I ' being in harmony witn the svsu m of Georgia i internal improvements, it wifi not even b part i and parcel of it. It will form a portion of the ! scheme of internal improvements which South ! Carolina is prosecuting with such commends -1 ble zeal. It will also form a part of the intern al improvement system of Tennessee. A road 'is ehaitjred, and now. under contract, from Chattanooga «o Oleycland in Tennessee: let the proposed Hiawassee Ror.rt be constrqgtw}! to the Duck Town mines, aud you wili, at cnee, see a road from Cleveland to connect with it, ‘ thus iJSs’ing it the bond of Union between the! Works of Tenure and South Carolina. In! a word, no candid niicd tan rejict the eonvic- ! tion, that the Hiawassee road will eorupicta the direct connection between Memphis and Charles-1 ton. It is not a enterprise, but time! will show, if this charter be tUio*®} ’hat Gi-?r-' gii territory is used fur proc* oing- other n. er-. cs«a at tl,<. expense of her ov ■. 2. The coQStructiou of the proposed Hiawas-i 1 see Rood is incomp.: ! ‘-le with the great design 1 ‘ design is to give sucli direction to our railroad enterprises, as io cause freight and travel to pass through Georgia, with a view of building up onr own cities and seaports, enhancing the valur* of our lands, aid causing our capital to yield remnnerating interest. Hence, you find all our lines of railroad across the State, taking a south-easterly direction, so as to bring the freight and travel from every quarter to the three cities I have named, as forming the basis of onr system. Hence also you find all our' ' branch roads and connecting links located with i reference to the same object. Whereas the' road under consideration looks to a different di i rcction. Its connections eastward and west i ward will necessarily make it the means of di ! verting travel and freights away from Georgia, i to the cities and seaports of South Carolina ■ Having shown that tho road proposed by this charter is iaccnsistcnt with both the system and design of our internal improvements, per mit me to invite your attention to the irrepara ble injury which it will inflict. c;>on the grant ■ interests of Georgia, which may not be disre garded by an enlightened Legisla’ure. 1. Its effect upon the Western & Atlantic railroad. w< uld be disastrous. There is a sin- • gle article of shipment which it would cut off from tho State road, that, of itself, ought to be sufficient to consign it to final condemnation.— I allude to copper. The amount received du ring the last year, for the transportation of cop per ore over the Western & Atlantic railroad, must have been nearly or quite $25,000. That business is yet in its infancy, and future years must bring a largely increased revenue from this source. But this charter proposes to build a read from the copper mines, winch will make the South Carolina roads the means by .which lit will find its shipping at Charleston. Arc ! you prepared to surrender this source of profit j to our State road ’ I I have said that the grand design of our iti ■ ternal improvements, is to make the boundless , productions of the great West tributary to the ! wealth and prosperity of Georgia. To effect j this, the State lias expend®] nearly $6,000,000 . | in Mie construction of the Western and Atlantic ; rai'roafl. She wisely tapped this fertile region j at Chattanooga, which is the most, favorable point near the termination of the great moun . tain chain, to meet the converging lines which . penetrate the Mississippi valley and Eastern . and Middle Tcnnessc. This is the point at which . the State road must ever receive the freights , on which it must mainly rely for a profitable i business. That is the point of competition, and i the geographical position of the State is such, , that her road, without consent, never can have , a formidable rival. The productions west of . that point are seeking the Atlantic. Now they > I are compelled to pass over our road in going j either to Savannah or Charleston. Looking to i; the enterprizes now in contemplation, a great II line may be expected, at no very distant day. I from Chattanooga to Chesapeake Bay. This ;! will be a competitor, but not fearfully formida- I ble. In an hour of thoughtless generosity, our I Legislature granted the Rabun Gap charter, r i which gives Charleston a line through Georgia .i to Knoxville. When completed, I his will be ! another rival to our State road, but perhaps . | not one that can supplant us at Chattanooga. ' Without our consent, we never can iiave any ! ~ others. But the bill under consideration pro-! j poses to make the latter a competitor, which [ i will lx? most formidable, if not ruinous to our State road, by making a connected line at , Chattanooga, through Rabun Gap to Charles t ton. i It will not be denied, other things being . equal, that freight will take the shortest line to . the sea. The road proposed by this charter will inevitable result not only, as’ I have before ! shown, in a connected line from Charleston to i Chattanooga, through the Rabun Gap, but a , shorter line than the route over the Western aud Atlantic railroad. I have before nte the latest edition of Disturneli's railway andsteam i ship guide, published for J/arch, 1856. It is , doubtless as reliable as any work of the kind can lx*, and certainly suflicienty accurate for the ! purposejn hand. According to this work, the distances are as follows : From Charleston to Columbia, it is 128 miles. From Columbia to Audcison, it is 127 miles. In a right line from Anderson, by Clayton and Cleveland, to Chattanooga, it is 160 miles. So that from Chattanooga to Charles ton, by this South Carolina route,” it is 4] 5 miles. From Charleston to Augusta.lt is 137 miles. From Augusta to Atlanta, it is 171 miles; anl From Atlanta to Chattanooga, 138 miles— making from Chattanooga to Charleston, 446 miles, by the Georgia line—showing a difference in distance of thirty-one miles in favor of the Charleston route, by the way of Clayton and Cleveland. This comparison is based upou the supposition, that the South Carolina route will run from Charleston by Columbia, Anderson, i Rabun Gap and Cleveland, to Chattanooga.— It will, however, be shortened by the proposed road from Aiken to Anderson, thus making the competition still more ruinous to the Western and Atlantic railroad- I do fee! that there is nothing to warrant us, thus to put in jeopardy this great road, built at such an immense cost by the common treasury of the people. As the guardians of the people’s welfare, we are bound to protect this valuable State property from destruction. If the South Carolina line were equal to or even a little longer than the Georgia line, we should be compelled to reduce the rales of freight to a point which would leave but a small margin for nett profits. How then can we bear the competition of a shorter line.'— Shall we invite it by onr legislation, when wc have it in our power to prevent it forever. From the direction which publ c opinion is taking in Georgia, in reference to the Western and Atlantic Railroad, it is probable, that at no distant day. our successors will offer it for sale. Si? millicn of dollars is now the lowest sum for which any man proposes to sell it; in a few years it will be worth and will bring eight millions, if yon will not fetter it with embar rassing lesislation, or build up a great rival for the benefis of other States. But what will to command in market, if you allow a shorter linie to Charleston, by the way of Cleveland and Rabun Gap? 2. If the construction of the Hiwassee Road should not defeat all our contemplated roads in North Eastern Gcorgia.it will certainly give a wrong direction to the development of the resources of that section. In my judgement, it must inevitably do the one or tlie other. You have chartered a Road from Athens to Clay ton, but where would be the inducement to complete the northern railroad? Hts stock would be valuless- It woul dcommand no freight from East Tennessee and North Carolina, it would be divert®! to Charleston. You have charter-! cd a railroad from the copper mines to Marri-1 etti or soins point between Marietta and Calhoun. But what would lie ths inducement to build the Elijay Road? The same remark is equally applicable to the Road which you have chartered from Clarksville- through 'the High'ower Gap to the copper mit>"«; and in deed every road contemplated in that whole division of the State. ■ But sappwe it should not have this effect l upon those enterprises; suppose that some of ' them should be completed, and that through their instrumentality. North Eastern Georgia should be developed; what then might we ex pect? Inevitably, that region of the State, instead of being tributary to Georgia, would transport the great bulk of its productions by | the South Carolina route. The interest and ; welfare of North Eastern Georgia does not re- i quire legislation, which wi 1 lead to such re sults. It may be, to say to the least, as well protected by a policy iu harmony with the systeta and design of our scheme of internal improvements. ! 3. The construction of the proposea lliwae- ’ sec Road would inflict serfcus detriment, not' only upon the immense amount of capital in- * vested ! n the Western & Atlantic Railroad.! but also up ... lines. that either direct-■ iy of indirectly connect wkn It, The State' Road Las cost about 86,OOft.<X»fl. Jt U a greatj feed; -to the Georgia Railroad which ha« cost’ s4.ooo,<mt». to th-- Waynesboro road which has j cost about 81.100.000, to .lie Macon A West-1 era road which has cost about SI ,1 00.Q0U, and 000,000. So that wo have invest®! in these works, in round number*. $16,200,000. Our people have laid down their nv ney in good faith for the construction of these roads. They have operated most beneficially upon the wealth and prosperity of the State, and placed her in ad ance of all her sister Southern States. Now, v the comtemplated Hiawassee road would end still to advance the great interests of Geor gia, it would be some conipensa: ion for the in jury it would do to tnese grout enterprizes, and would furnish some justification for the sanction of this, it would divert to the South Carolina route, much the larger portion of the freights, on which those heavy investments are depen dant, and lamentably deprecate their value. I have too much respect for the intelligence of the Genera! Assembly, to advance an argument to show, that any act of legislation is unwise, which will put in jeopardy $10,200,000 of the capital of the people. It is equally unnecces sory to advance proof, that whatever would cripple the efficiency of the Roads, constructed on the idea of legislative consistency and go d faith, would be a great public calamity. It is no reply to this view, to urge that these roads are private property, and that therefore, the interest of their respective corporators is not to be considered by the Legislature, in its action. I repeat, “it does not follow that a charter for a rail road must be granted, as a matter of course when asked.” It is true the Legislature have the right to grant, new char tersat all times. But the principle of good faith is as applicable to, and as binding upon. States as individuals. When the legislature Charters a roi-d between any two points, there is an im plied obligation not to grant another either in conflict with it, or that will destroy the value of the franchise first conferred. The stern ad herence to this principle—tho unqualified re cognition of this obligation—is as much a part of public honor, as it is indispensable to the completion of our internal improvement svstem. I submit, therefore, that the Legislature ought to pause long, before they will consent to an act, the inevitable, effect of which will be to depricato ruinously the value of the capital, which they have invited to be invest®] in these private Rail Road Companies, and thereby in flict a serious injury upon the several large communities along these lines, who are deeply interested in their being kept in good condition and operated profitably, without which they cannot be operated successfully. It may be asked, whether the communities who are to be accommodated by the Hiwassee Rail Road, are to be kept forever exchid®! from access to favorable markets, by the moun tains which interpose between them and the great thoroughfares through our State. In considering this question, it must be borne in mind that the State, in reference to her own internal interests, must be regarded as u unit— a consolidat®l community, and that so consid ered, it is a sound principle, that the interest of a part must be subordinate to the welfare of the whole. Or, in other words, one section is not to be built up at the expense of every other. It is indeed the duty of the Legislature to so shape its policy, as to afford needed facil ities to the region which the Hiwassee Road is dcsigne to accommodate. But it ought to do this, with reference to the interest', and rights of other portions of the State, and in a manner compatible with the system and design of our internal improvement scheme. But to the question jnst propunded, I reply, that the communities of the State who desire the Hiwassee Road ought not by any line of State policy to be shut off from favorable mar kets for their produce. There is no necessity for it. The general interests docs not require it. They can be accommodated in another way, consistently with a sound Georgian interest and Georgia policy. How cau this lie done? This leads me to extend a little more fully my views in reference to our system of internal improve ments, than is contained in my biennial Mess age, from which I quoted in the first part of this communication. I said that Augusta, Savannah and Brunswick are the bases of our system, and that aid might be wisely extended to the completion of its general frame work.— For this purpose, and the full development of our natural resources, 1 believe that each of these points of commerce should be connected by main lines with the great geographical di visions or sections of our State. At present, neither of these cities is connected with North East Georgia. They are, or soon will be, by contemplated routes, with North Western, Western and Southwestern Georgia. Hence, what is needed to connect them all with North Eastern Georgia, is a Road from that section to Athens or some point on the Georgia or Western and Atlantic Rail Road. To such an enterprize, I believe our true interest requires that State aid in some form should be granted. I did hope to see this done by the present Gen eral Assembly. I have an abiding confidence that it will be done at an early period. To such a Road, branches would be built, in due time, thus developing that whole region, afford ing it facilities for transporting its "products to market, and at the same time, making it tribu tary to the interest and prosperity of our gen eral scheme. Qr, if those who seek Railroad aceommada tion by this bill, believe Charleston to lie the best market, and desire a connection with it, they should not be prohibited. It is right that every portion of the State be allowed access, if possi ble, to the market of their choice. For this purpose, let Charters be granted to connect from any safe point South of the Tennessee line at Rabun Qap of any point cast that will give the desired connection. But it is quite a differ ent question when a Charter is asked which yields, as this bill docs, the right of way across a portion of the State, which must result ‘n con nections between points, east and west, that will prove fatal to the Interests of Georgia. I trust I am not selfish in thedisjointed views which I have presented for your consideration. Ibelieve thoroughly iu the doctrine of “the grea test good to the greatest number,” and it is un der its influence that J have felt bound to withhold my sanction to the bill under consid eration. Nor am I animated by any hostility to the interest and welfare of South Carolina. She is now acting and always has acted in accordance with the policy which I advocate for Georgia. By it, she is stimulate] to th? noblest efforts to reach the West by a route shorter than that through Georgia by the Western aud Atlantic Rail Road. She does right in thus seeking to sustain her own public works and foster het own seaport. Her energy and sagacity command my admiration. I respect her people, I vener ate her great men, I applaud her public spirit, and I cordially bid her ‘God speed’ in her ca reer of enterprize. Ido not love her less*, but Georgia more. Still however much I may rc joieo in her prosperity, I confess to r.n ardent desire, that our Legislature shall not promote it at the sacrifice of our own. My motto is “(Georgia first, our co terminus sisters second, the other States third, and last, the rest of mankind.’ ” HERSCHEL Y. JOFfNSGN. The Instability or Know Nothingism.— The Russell Recorder, in an article on the eLangability of “AmericanUro,’’so-called, makes the following happy hit : ••If there is any virtue iu political platforms, the Know Nothings will certainly find a good one after a while. We have not attempted to keep up with their platforms, for they make a new one every time four or five of them get to i rether ; and we expect that our friends of the i Mail will get up a book of platforms for com ■ petition to the -Veto Messages’’ published by i the Advertiser and Gazette.

S“SK Messrs. A. J. Lavraou. of Burke. I. T. j Irvin, cf Wilkes, and Hon. Edward Y.

I The speech delivered in the Senate, on II - i 28th inst. by Mr. Toombs, of Georgia, on the I President's Kansas mes age is remarkable for ! ’ its compactness, brevity and clearness. The , able Scnnator wasted no words, but. went right : Ito the main points of the case. The speech ! i was in reply to a speech made on the same sub-1 ject by Mr. Hale, Senator from New Ilamp- 1 shire. Mr. Toombs after arguing the points i I involved, on principle, addressed himself with [ i great effect lo a charge made by Senator Hale. ! Said Senator Toomb s: U'n'hinntcr,, Senti ] I I regretted exceedingly to hear the Senator j from New I lampsliirc, a few days since, say | that the North bad always been practically in ja minority in Congress, because wc oftlie South ! bought up as many northern men as we wanted ! I The people of the South—one third nly of the i white population o!' the United States—are thus | deliberately changed by a northern Senator ; ; with ruling the republic aud putting the North lin a practical minority for fifty years by pur- I chasing up his countrymen. Sir, I stand here to day, in behalf of the North to repel the ac , cusation. Mr. Hale. Who made it? I Mr. Tootnbs. You said it ; 1 have it before me in your printed speech; I heard it delivered, aud you are correctly reported. I deny it.; it is a slander on my countrymen. Northern statesmen have sold themselves out in quanti ties to suit purchasers for fifty years! New Hampshire sell her honor and her interct to “southern slave-drivers 1” If it had been true, it would rather become her own son to have I thrown the mantle over her shame, and con cealed it from all eyes, even his own, than to ] have become her accuser. I think the senator j may search in vain, even in the bitterest traides o' - abuse and villilication ever uttered by I those whom lie terms ‘ border ruffians,” lor any language so strong, and accusation so disgrace ful, as that made by himself against, his own countrymen. What proof is offered us in support of this accusation ? He pointed us to the annexation of Texas. *• Perhaps,” said the Senator, in this connection, “ That was a northern aggression.” The question of the annexation of Texas was first brought before this body in a treaty made by President Tyler ; it was rejected by a large majority, composed ol a majority of the South, as well us the North. It was adopted as a party measure by tl:e democratic convention in 1844, which nominated Mr. Polk. It was openly and fairly put before the people of the United States ; everywhere discu sed and com mented upon ; emblazoned on every democrat ic banner throughout the Union, and decided by the people in favor of annexation. It was car rieil by a great majority in New Hampshire— -1 presume against the Senator’s eloquence, who, if I mistake not, was turned out of his old par ty for opposing it. Were the people who sup ported this measure bought by the South '?— Who bought the hardy intelligent sons of New Hampshire? Wha pay did they receive?— Who was rich enough to buy them ? Sir, I remember to have seen it related of one of the poorest of her sons, Ethan Allen, that, when it was attempted to seduce him from liis fidelity to his country, he indignantly replied, “ Poor as I am. the King of England is not rich enough to buy me.” [Applause.] Sir, wheth er the story be true of him or not, I doubt not that there are thousands and tens of thousands of the incorruptible patriots of the land of Ethan Allen, who would proudly have made the same reply to the same temptation. These men have not been bought, nor can they be either cajoled or intimidated by the senator from New Hampshire. They supported the annexation of Texas because they believed it was to the public interest; that it was a meas ure of sound policy. It was proposed by tha party with whom they acted ; they approved and adopted it. It wus everywhere a party, and not a section il issue. Nearly one half of the South opposed it, but a majority of both sections approved it. It is not true that those gallant aud patriotic statesmen of New Hamp shire who supported this measure nt home and here were bought and bribed to support this measure, or in any way to betray their State* or their section. Many of them were known and revered by friends and opponents through out the Union. Some of them now are gath ered to their fathers, fill honorable graves, and around whose tombs cluster pleasant memories, untainted by dishonor. Woodbury, Atherton, and Norris, long known and honored by New Hampshitit, have thus passed away. Who bought them ? In the name of truth, of justice, of my country and for New Hampshire, I repel the charge. New York supported that measure. Who bought her representatives? Who bought Pennsylvania ? Who bought the men of tho great West. They supported it. Who bought aud who paid for Indiana, Illinois, and M ichi gan? They supported that measure. These wholesale, baseless,, and unfounded charges will not intimidate, but they ought to arouse the men of the North to vindicate tlieir honor by indignantly repelling their libellers from their counsels. The northern men who support and main tain their own opinions on great constitutional questions, and have the fearless independence to follow their convictions of duty, in the elegant vocabulary of the “ friends of’humanity,” arc usually termed “ dough-faces”—“ dough-faces” bought np by the South to betray the North. Who bought the Nestor of the Senate, (Mr. Cass,) who, with patriotic firmness, maintained his constitutional opinions, and voted against restriction, amid the yells and shrieks of his abolition detractors ? He is commonly repre sented by this class as the chief of “ dough faces.” Did the fourteen Senators from the non-slaveholding States who voted for the Kan tas bill sell out themselves and their country ? It is true that some of them have fallen victims so temporary causes. The abolitionists and ;he dark-lantern conspiracy in sonic States fra ternized, and succeeded in cutting some of them down. Such things are to be expected in all free countries. We cannot be wholly exempt from errors and delusions. Madness will some simes, but only for a time, "rule the hour.” We must take the good with the evil, with the firm trust that popular intelligence and patriot ism will finally vindicate themselves, and come to the support, of the right. The Senator seeks every occasion to ally himself and his cause with the North; hence he artfully defends the Puritans from imputations which my friend from Tennessee [Mr. Jones] had never cast upon them. He told us the North would fight. I believe that nobody ever doubted that any portion of the people of the United States would fight on a proper occasion Sir, if there shall ever be civil war in this coun try,'when honest men shall set about cutting each other’s throats, those who are least to be depended on in a fight will be the people who will set them at it. There arc courageous and honest men enough in both sections of the Union to fight. You may preach in your pul-1 pits in favor of sending Sharp's rifles to Ku i sas, and you may succeed in getting courage-! ous men to go there to use them. Not the least misfortune resulting from it will be, that I those who stir up the strife are not apt to Le found even within the reach of u far-shooting Sharp’s rifle. No, sir, there is no question of courage involved. The people of both sections of the Union have illustrated their courage on too many battle-fields to lx? questioned. They have shown their fighting qualities shoul ler to shoulder together whenever their country has i called upon them; but that they may never come in contact with each other in fraternal war should be tho ardent wish aud earnest de sire of every true man und honest patriot.
