Friday Afternoon, June 8, 1853.
The Gicunlon and the Ball.
Our city's guests had hardly time to recruit
their strength, after the fatigues of their pro
tracted trip by Railway, when they were sum
moned to make ready fora pleasure trip to Ty
boe, a feature in the programme of entertain
ment which was woll thought of by the Com
mittees, and tho arrangements for which were
so admirable, wo venture the prediction that
our guests will esteem their excursion as infe
rior to none of the pleasures experienced dur
ing their visit
The steamers Gordon, Capt A. C. King, and
Welaka, Capt N. Kino, had been chartered by
bj tae excursion Committee expressly for tho
occasion and wero put in thorough order; with
colors flying, and to the sound of stirring music,
the two steamers left the Charleston wharf at a
little before eleven o’clock, A. M. t having on
board, our friends from a distance, a number of
invited guests belonging to our city, and tho
several gentlemen of the Committee on Excur
sion. On our voyago down, and back, every
compliment and greeting which ctiquotto de
manded, or good feeling could suggest, were
paid to our steamers an 1 their passengers.
Salutes and choirs from the decks of tho ship
ping in port, and cheers from the numerous
spectators along the shore, wero given in the
heartiest profusion, and duly acknowledged by
tho recipients of the compliment. The huge
steam cotton press of C. A. L. Lamar Esq. ex
pressed itself as wo neared it on our way down,
by giving us tlireo car-piercing cheers, each
one accompanied by a cloud of snowy steam
from its escapo-pipo. Tho 15r. steamer Conway
Capt. Sawyer, lowered her ting as wo passed;
tho exceeding politeness and friendliness of this
compliment from Capt. Sawtkr, though to the
casual observer it may seem trivial, is an index
to tho character of that gentleman, at once de
claring the nature of the man to those who
know him not; and a confirmation of his many
good qualities to those who have not long en
joyed his acquaintance, or known him only by
report. It was a noble and refined piece of
gallantry, warmly appreciated by those to whom
it was tendered, and cordially reciprocatod by
thorn upon our return trip.
Our guests having been alToroe l a taste
of tho salt air, and a glimpse of a scene in
whoso background tho heavens kissed tho sea,
our steamers then wheeled, and pointed their
graceful prows homeward. At Fort Pulaski the
party disembarked,and amid the long corridors
of this noble fortification, spent an hour or more
very agreeably in examining the various ob
jects of attraction in tho Fort. To a large pro
portion of the oompuny, tho Fort and all of
its details, were great novelties, and elicited
much admiration from ull present. For this
pleasure, and we count it the highest extrane
ous one during tho trip, we were indebted totho
courteous kindness of Lieut. (Jilmkr, of the
U. S. Topographical Engineers, the command
ing officer of tho Fort. Lieut. (Jilmkr also
treated us to n spectodo novel to most of us,
and to all impressive, viz: a thirty-two pound
er booming across the water! Four balls were
fired in rapid succession, and as they plunged
furiously through tho waves, hi-.-ing as they
sped, the sublimity of “ tho big wars
ambition virtue,” was realized in a fullness of
conception which more description can never
give. After a thorough and satisfactory recon
noissance of the Fort, and the adjacent grounds,
we again repaired to our steamer', and bad not
been long upon deck, when the dinner-bell, that
“pleasant bell,” culled us to assemble at the
board. Tho tables were profusely spread with
substantial, happy conceptions in tho art
cuisine, &n<l viands, fruits and delicacies too
numerous to mention ; “ ileidaie,” with its
electric influences went freely round the hoard,
and toast, and speech, and song, and joke, follow
ed in due succession. Tin* Dinner was never sur
passed wo venture to say, in the cordial good
feeling which attended it, while in all of its ap
pointments, whether we view it through tho eye
of a bon vivant, or tho colder one of a critic, it
reflected the highest credit upon the stewards
who provided it. At the tables on board tho
Gordon, Col. FkaBOKN Jon is presided; at the
Wclaka'n board, Judge Jlk.nkv It. Jackson.
both of whom wero assisted by Vice Presidents.
We regret that we are unable to present our
readers with some of tho many good things
which were said and sung; among other gen
tlemen who contributed to the general stock of
toast, speech, anecdote, and song, were Judge
Thomas, Judge Powell, Judge Jackson* Pr.
Cushman, lien. White, Mayor Sorrel, Mr. Pier
pont, Mr. Hicks, Mr. Kelly, Henry Williams,
Esq., Capt. Gallic, Col. lienuing, ('ol. Flack,
Mr. Morton, Capt. Foreman, Mr. Poo, Mr.
Thornton, Col. Jones, and many others.
Tho excursion ended with our arrival at the
wharf, whore Gen. W. P. Wuitk, Chief Mar
ahall, resumed the command, ami under his
guid dance, tho party was marched in proces
sion to Monument square, and was there dis- 1
missed.
We must not omit to make mention hero of
the obligations our city is under to the Me ,-rs.
King, commanding the steamers, by the aid of
whose polite attentions, urbanity an 1 care, tip
excursion was so happily conducted from its be
ginning to tho end; nor less pruL-o would we
award to the Excursion Committee, every mem
ber of which was iudeftttigable in bis efforts to
•ocuro to ourguests tho greatest pos ible amount
of enjoyment. They were essentially a work
ing committee, ami left nothing undone that
was possible, in their efforts to discharge faith
fully the arduous task assigned them.
TUP. BALL,
Commencing about It o'clock last evening,
andcloaing about 3, this morning, was well at
tended, and is conceded to have been tho plea
eantest affair of its kind which has occurred for
many years in our city. The ball-room, for
which a segment of the great Ware-Hoorn ut the
Central H. R. Co’s works had been set apart,
was decorated with a skill and taste which w#
have never seen equalled. Wo doubt if any
building in our Union has such advantages as
a fitting place for tho dance, ns this. Tho nu
merous gigantic entrances, at frequent intervals
along the north and south sides of the room, nf
forded free ingress to the cool air without,
which kept the temperature of the room at a
delightful point. These entrances were trimm
ed with shrubbery, so as to resemble rustic nr
bors, in recess, iu which seats wero placed for
the benefit of those who prefer a quiet Ute a-tete
to the dunce. The effect of these pleasant re
treats was in a high degree striking. The whole
surface of the walls was ornamented with taste
fully disposed boughs, flowers, etc. The floors
were covered with matting, over which a tbin
covering of white cloth was stretched, giving ‘
* brilliant appearance to the rooms, and fiuc i
effect to tfie many colored costumes of the vota
ries of tho dance, while the surface presented to
the tripping feet of tho dancors, was smooth
and pleasant as a floor of glass.
Tho usual joyous occurrences ofthe Ball-room
which hare so often been described, transpired
last evening, and do not roquire a lengthy notice
at our hands. Wo have never witnessed any ,
festivity snore emphatically characterized by
genuine enjoyment, lift*, and spirit, than wore
the scenes of last evening; and so far as we saw,
and wo remained till near tho close of the Ball,
we have never known greater decorum, better
order, and more genteel deportment, to bo pre
seved on any similar previous occasion. In
this respect, the ball was faultless.
The most pleasing features of the occasion !
wero the heartiness with which our city’s guests
participated in tho festivities, and tho warm re
spoose*made to their polite gallantries by the
ladies of our city ; there was an utter abseucc
of (that frigid reserve which it is so hard to con
vucr when comparative strangers meet together
and all present, while strictly observing the
limits of the utmost propriety, yet would not
allow that sentiment to degenerate into stifffor
raality. With tho first notes of the band the
feeling of reserve was banished, and all after
meetings and greetings, evinced the universal
prevalence of the sentiment that this meeting
was not ono of strangers.
To tho Managers, and all who have had con
nection with tho getting up of tho Ball, great
credit belongs for their manner of discharging
their duties, which left nothing to be desired.
In conclusion wo may safely assert, that the
Ball answered every purpose for which it was
intended, and will long he remembered by those
who enjoyed it, as ono ofthe most pleasant and
joyous occasions which ii is in their power to
recall, in this sentiment,wo believe—no one will
refuse to joiu us.
Flue Vehicles*
We inspected this morning at tho Carriage ]
Repository of Mr. S. Z. Murpiiy on Bryan
street, several new and handsome buggies which
answered every requirement of our judgment,
as to freshness of style, elegunco of finish and
design, and substantial workmanship. Our
reader*, in want of a handsome vehicle, cannot
do hotter iu our city, than at Mr. Mluphy’s
establishment, where tho most fastidious taste
can hardly fail to find its loan ideal of perfoc.
tion, in equipage. See advertisement on fourth
page, aud take out word for a fact which does not
there appear, viz. .that in any transactions, with
Mr. M. tho purchaser will find lain a man trust
worthy, and reliable, whose suggestions or ro
coramondations may bo strictly depended on,
as valuable and siuccro.
[ron TIIF. JOURNAL.]
Mr. Editor: Hive the vicissitudes of life
ever caused you to pass tho day in a Court House,
on which criminal tininess is begun ? If not,
one of tho aspects in which society and the
characters of thoso who compose it is exhibited,
is unknown to you. Now you as an enlighten
er of the public, should know every thing, and
so to bo prepared for a negative answer to tho
question, I will proceed to tell you what is done
there on that day. To premise—you of course
know that a Court is a place wherein justice is
judicially administered. It is the judicial ad
ministration of it, that distinguishes the justice
of Courts from tho common every day justice
that passes current between man and man. This
stamps it with its own signet, and warrants it
genuine. All other is base metal in the simili
tude of the true coin ; it may answorall the pur
poses of tho true, boos just w eight and speci
ous appearance, and in all respects (indistin
guishable from the genuino by those who use it,
but let it over cotno into the hands of an officer
of the ojfieina jnatitia, and tho deception will bo
instantly detected. It is enough that it wants
j tho seal of the Court to damn it iu Lis eyes, and
| straight he proceeds to have this affixed. Now,
Mr. E litor, this process of fixing the seal to tho
) peculiar branch of justice applicable to those un
i fortunates known ns criminals, is what I in
tend to describe to you. ,
Tho Court whoso proceedings I shall toll you
’ j of, is held in, and for a county, not the most
| distant in this State from your sanctum. Tho
j Judge is an able, learned and courteous gentlc
! man; none more so have over filled tho Bench
joa which lie sits. Ho presides with dignity,
decides with precision, and justice stamped with
the seal of his court, is considered genuino as
tho best.
Tho morning meal was over in tho town of
tified by process, summons and subpoenas, so
say nothing of advertisements, wended their
way towards (he Court House. There, on door
steps, railings and other conveniences hoseated,
they waited with timely patience until, nt the
coming of his Honor, access to the seats, aud
more pleasant accommodations within the
Court, should be gained. Likewise men and
pru Icnteconomists, theso Republicans improved
their time by learned disquisitions on the laws
• of their country. The infallible exponent of
] Constitutional right who seeius to exist only fur
tho good of his fellow-citizens, was there. I
Around him, tho enlightened Americans formed
a serious congregation, surrendering for the
nonce their free opinions. Sago was his expo
sition, profound his prelection. With minds
tlius instructed, what wonder if all were woll
prepared for tho offices of justice. Ten o’clock
strikes! By what clock ‘ti: needless to tell,
i His Hen ir is seen in the distance*. He np
. proachos. As his rapid feet lesson the intor
i veniug space, it can bo.secn that papers fill his
hands. “Tho Bank Notes of justice,” cry the
j waiting citizens, “ ho will impress his seal upon
| them, to mark th ir authenticity. () upright
j Judge, 0 learned Judge, who sleeps but to
dream of ju.-tioe, and wakes but to serve her.”
But see! A nearer view discovers they are
new.-papers letters and new-papers. He is just
from tho post office. Lettors with the red wax
of official business—an nppoiutinentdoubtless—
some token that tho powers that bo recognise
tho deserts of this upright Judge. Newspa
pers—tho daily history ofthe world—evidences
that passing events nro not without interest to
this learned Judge. Ho passes on—ho enters
the Court llutiso—that kingdom, where he is
absolute monarch. He glances u>t to the right
| hand or tho left; tho path of duty is beforo j
j him—ho scorns to turn aside from it. The
! waiting citizens also, though burning with do
i sire to catch a glimpse of his entering Honor, j
will not lower their dignity by turning to look I
at a mcro man. If ho i* a Judge, what thou? j
They can make judges ! Why should they turn j
to look nt him? No—they will break their I
necks by screwing their heads round to see him |
fas see him they must) out of tho corners of j
their eves, before they will allow their free and j
independent fellow-citizens to suppose they
would inure their bodies for such a purpose. I
j At the Sound of his steps, as at an Open Sesame, j
! the court-room door grates open. Say that
; Open Sesame here found its original applies- ;
tion, I will not. It would be invidious to do so;
but the sound of his steps opened the courtroom,
and Open Sesame opened & sparkling cave. The
difference is obvious. The sound ofthe creak
ing binges was heard by the waiting citizens
outside. Tho railings are divested of tenants,
tho sitters on door-steps arise, other conveni
ent places are vacated, and with tho heavy tread
which indicates an earnestness of thought be
coming to those on whose shoulders rest the af
fairs of tho nation, ull enter tho court room.
Such as can find souts, take them—thoso who
cannot, take none. Gravity prevails, and that
decorous hum indicative of an assembly of rea
soning men, goes round. Presently a stir is
heard at the numerously surrounded door; the
eitizens give way, aud enter two bundles of calf
skin, be two on which is discerned a human body.
We recognise an active and efficient member of
the honorable legal profession, with a bundle of
books under each arm, to which, with their ac
customed respect for law, coupled with a slight
fear of knocks from their hard corners, the citi
zens yielded a passage. One by one, or two by
two, with their woutod punctuality, the members
of this profession dropped in, until, by half an
hour after court tiuio, all wero there who were
likely to be either ornamental or useful. His
Honor who, during this time, had busied him
self with his newspapers and red-waxed letters,
now raised his eyes, and observing that the
denso population of his domain hud filled every
corner thereof with a comfortable crowd, order
ed that most potent, yet most pcaccuble officer
of his, the Sheriff, to open tho Court—The reply
was, “Oh yes! Oh yes!” and tho Sheriff did
open tho Court with a pious and reverend pray
er, that ** God would save the State and this
Honorable Court.”
The important time was now arrived; the crisis
was at hand; tho seal was about to bo opened;
and attention was agog. But the course of ju
dicial justico is slow, its proceeds not rashly;
preliminary steps wero to be gone through before
i the final solemn aflixment which attests its au
thenticity. Much loud talking was to bo done,
much wrangling to take place, ideas were to be
I confused by conflicting statements, appeals and
j counter appeals were to bo made to tho cu*ti>s
| eitjillorum, and then a long period was to elapse
to enable the said cueto* to bo divested of the
indistinctness of mental vision produced by tho
process aforesaid.
! “Callover tho petty Jurors Mr. Clerk” his
. Honor commands. Mr. Clerk obeys and the
consequence is the enunciation by that dignitary
J of some sixty names, the bcai rs of which com
| pose what is known to judicial justico as the
“Country.” The sonorous voice of Mr. Clerk
j resounds through those sacred halls, where the
typical ermine presides in unspotted purity, ns
he calls on Spriggins, Swiggins and Sliggins to
! come forward in the servico of their state,
j Spriggins comes, Swiggins conies not, and Stig
! gins asks to be excused. Tho jury are called,
they are in their box, that wooden instrument,
so appropriately styled*tho palladium of our
Liberties. Look at them ! See the noble free
men, tho high minded citizens to whom judicial
; justice entrusts the keeping of her seal! Could
j it be in bettor custody ?
But hold! who is that with tho expansive
brow of mature wisdom, the flashing eye of
genius, and the benovulont asp._\-t of a guar
dian angel, sitting at a desk on which heaped
up papers riso in mountains high. Hark to
the eloquent fervor of his voice as fie speaks.
See tho Apollonic grace of his form as rising
bo displays it. Who is he? Sure none near him
deserve honors so much as ho. It is tho Prose
cuting officer for tho State-. It is he to whom tho
State confides the office of securing the reforma
tion of her erring sons and the punishment of
tho incorrigible. He,burning with patriotic fire,
uninfluoncod by meaner motives, faithfully ex
i cutes tho trust. With gentle voice he persuades
the novice in the paths of vice to tho pleasant
ways of virtue,and thundering likeJovo ho calls
down tho bolts of offended justico on the head
of tho old offender. The go 1 may nod, but ho
never. His duties may at times be repulsive
to his tender heart but ho never fails to per
forin them. lie is always ready. Tho papers
before him relate to the judicial justice duo to
such as persuasion evon from his tongue would
j not turn aside from the evil of their ways and
| wait tho affixture of her seal* M irk tho ability,
; always temperato with regret at its necessity,
with which he will perforin his duty.
lli.s Honor speaks again. Wonderful is tho
attention paid to his words. Soo yonder to
bacco chewor! at the first sound ho pauses in the
act of expectoration and hangs expectant on the
Benchs’ words. “Wo will take up the criminal
docket this morning.” His Honor pauses. The
tobacco cliower relieved from suspense com
pletes tho interrupted act. Ho continues, “Tho
Stato vs. Dry bones is first in order; what says
the State ?” The State responding in the person
of tho worthy gentloman already spoken of
answers “May it please tho Court there was no
! arrest in that case” leaving it thence to be in
| forred that the Stato has no particular inten
j tions in tho matter. Tho Court does not say
whether it is pleased or not, but from the fact
that silence gives consent I am inclined to think
it is pleased.
“Tho State vs Todsenknpf” is called next.
“Does any gentleman represent Mr. Jodlen
kopf/” his Honor asks. No go n tie man answers.
“Mr. Sheriff call Hanse Todtenkopf at tho door”
orders tho Sol. (ion.; from tho Sheriffs post at
tho right of the Court tho cry arises “Hanso
Todtenkopf coino into court”; it is taken up in
ominous tone by a diligent functionary statioued
at tho door for that and other purposes indis
pensable in tho administration of judicial jus
tico; it passes on to yet another assistant uutil
in every variety of tone and pronunciation Mr.
Todtenkopf has boon called upon to come for
ward and submit himself to what to the court
! shall seem good in his behalf and still ho is ob
! durate. He will not listen to the gentle plead
itig of justice—ho must bo compelled to obey
her power. “I movo tho Court to bo allowed
j to estreat Mr. Todtenkopf’s bond” tho Sol. Gen.
reluctantly says, lie is grieved that his duty
I should require him to do this. Though tho
| Court has long been in debt to him for his ser
vices and this will bring rnony to its purso
i wherewith he may be paid, ho is loath that in
■ nocoot securities should suffer for tho fault of a
1 criminal so hardy as not to hoed evon the sum
mons of the Court proceeding from tho mouth
of her distinguished Sheriff. Tho Court nods
j assent and Mr. Todtenkopf's bond is thereupon
* sstreated.
j The Court proceeds; the State against Bodkins
I is called. Buskin’s is accused of heating wound
’ itig and ilitroatiug an Ass lie not being the
J owner or employer thereof. 110 is represented
jby the learned Fumble and Jumble. Bodkins
| if a man well able to appreciate tho value of
! judicial justice, ho knows the labor and anxiety
I his case costs his counsel, and he has paid them
well for it. A large fee paid in hand inspires
i lumble; Jumble rejoices for the same cause.

Out of one eye beams compassion for bis perse

You aro not ignorant that he honors me with

Ilou. Seaborn Junes’ Reply.
Tho following is tho reply of the Hon. Sea
born Jones to tho address of Judge Berrien, on
the arrival of our City Guests yesterday morn
ing
Mr. Chairman, a>id Gentlemen of the Committee
and of the City of Savannah:
Upon me bus devolved tho welcome duty of
returning thanks for the people of Columbus,
and for all who have united with us to partake
of your kind hospitality, and for the kind and
cordial welcome ofthe citizens of Savaunah,
and to yourself for the heartfelt and affectionate
manner in which it has been tendered. A more
pleasant an l gratifying duty could not have boon
assigned, and in their name I tender our sincere
thanks.
With a noble and spacious harbor, you have
well said that for along time your city has been
isolated and separated from the fertile back coun
i try, which was to supply her commercial wealth
aud prosperity, and the only means of commu
nication was by “slow coaches” for passengers,
and still'slower wagons for tho transportation of
I produce. Well do we remember, sir, when Sa
vannah and Augusta were supplied by a week
ly mail on horseback, or tho sulky, and we also
remember when to supersede them by the four
horse stage tlireo times a week, the State of
Georgia gave to Caltrey A Bustin the exclusive
privilege for twenty years of running those
couches at the enormous speed of sixty miles a
day. Savannah was impatient at these restraints
j on her prosperity, and aroused from her deep
! deep by the shrill whistle of the steam engine
running from Charleston to Hamburg, she put
forth her energies, and, guided by her lamented
Gordon, commenced the Central Railroad.—
His loss was supplied by the ability, the energy
and industry of the present President, my old
friend, Mr. Cuyler. Under his uuspices, that
road lias been finished, her resources have been
properly applied, her finances placed upon tho
most desirable footing mid the stock ofthe Couip’y
nt a higher premium than any in the State; and
while the stock taken by the city has been large
ly increased, the value of the real property of
her citizens has been doubled. Did I say doub
led? Yes, sir, I believe I should not bo wrong
were Ito say trebled or quadrupled. Columbus
and Macon have endeavored to second these ef
forts in extending that road, and you have on
ly ppoken 1 1, simple truth in the proud boast,
that you saw the morning sun raisiug bis broad
disc from the Atlantic wave, that you travelled
with his fiery coursers throughout the e.U .-nl of
our Stato, and saw his golden beams trembling
at the gates of the West, beyond the rapid Chat
tahoochee.
We, too, have endoavored to perform the .--nine
feat, and flattered ourselves that wo would be
able to travel the same distance in tho same < r
a shorter period. We failed ; but we ought not
to complain, for how could Columbus expect to
equal Savannah ? Savannah is in the pride and
vigor of her strength, and Columbus but tho
••miss in her teens.” But, while she grows with
her growth, and strengthens with her strength,
.-be will - till strive to emulate the glorious ex
ample set before her.
And, permit me to say, sir, she was only pre
vented from succeeding by the most trifling ac
cident. The cow-catcher of the engine was put
rather lower than those generally used on the
road; and you know, sir, that where country
roads cross the rail-track, scantling are placed
on oithor side and between the rails, and, al
though the locomotive passed up safely the eve
ning before, in descending, tho cow catcher
struck against one ofthe scantling, and instead
of driving it before, it was unfortunately thrown
directly across ih) track, and the*engino, bag
gage-ear, and one ofthe passenger cars thrown
off ih * track and much injured.
And, sir, it was a merciful interposition, that
not one person, of that large number, was in
ured. JJjßut, sir, although wo wero prevented
by this accident from boasting that wo had
traversed the Stato from west to oast, from tho
rising to the setting sun, yet wo may almost
say with Joshua of old, that tho sun stood still
and that w o saw him rising as we left Columbus
and he was still rising ou our adveut at Savan
nah.
General Bernard has properly pointed out
the commercial advantages of Savannah, aud
Savannah has made great and successful cxer
j tions to avail herself of them all. Our beloved
i Stato, “the Empire State of the South,” has
j been penetrated by railroads in all directions;
I having Savannah as the focus or starting point.
She has nearly penetrated to Augusta iu tho
East, and will receive a rich reward in the great
business from that city. A road with tho At
lantic ports as its eastern terminus has been
continued through the centre of the State, pier
cing the mountains and leaving its western end
on a tributary of the mighty Mississippi. And
the road to Columbus has opened to Savannah
the rich productions of Western Georgia. But
while she has done this touch, permit me, sir to
differ from you in the proposition, that “tho
last link has been broken.”
South Western Georgia is calling loudly for
your aid. Florida is also raising her hands in
supplication. And Alabama, like Macedonia
of old, is urgently entreating you to come over
and help her. And they will pour into your lap
a rich reward for all the aid bestowed.
The time was, when loud complaints were
made against Savannah for tho largo subscrip
tions she made to build her roads. Her ruin
was predicted. Now the most skeptical have
been silenced. The stock is sufficient to pay all
thejdcbts he contracted lor it,besides the increas
ed value of property in the city. And none can
be found so foolish as to believe that any invest
ment she might make in judicously extending
her lines of communication would not bo profi
tably employed.
\ on mentioned, sir, that you had rode in the
first car drawn by horses over the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad. That was tho first Road I over
saw, and not three decades have passod since
there too, I first saw the Iron Horse with his
burning lungs—his flaming nostrils and his fi
ery breath, and witnessed his mighty power
In a conversation. I heard about that time, I
learned that the resistance of tho atmosphere
and tho friction of the rails was more than over
come by the accelerated velocity’ and that tho
velocity would bo increased iu an equal ratio
w ith the power. I thon thought, and that opin
ion has been confirmed, that it will not bo diffi
cult to run 100 miles in an hour with as much
safety as twenty inilos. It is only necessary to
bavo the railway perfectly level, and tho curve
perfectly correct, and there will bo no increas
ed danger. For if they run off when running
at 30 miles an hour, they will be killed, and
they cun only ho killed at the increased ve
locity. They now run 00 miles the hour, and I
have little doubt, if my life is spared for as long
a period, that I shall see or hear the 10# miles
have been accomplished.
\ ou have said, Sir, that from tho approxima
tion created by railroad communication, Savan
nah, Macon, and Columbus can no longer be
called three cities, but are united into one,
J with Columbus for it* western, Macou its centre,
and Savannah for its eastern ward. Allow rao
then, to suggest, when their increased popula
tion shall draw them closer together, go that wo
can take the votes, that wo elect Mr. Wadley,
i your ablo superintendent, tho Mayor of the
great cit.y. My acquaintance with him has not
| boon long, but from the skill, activity an 1 ener
gy ho displayed in repairing (he accident which
befel us, a more efficient officer eould not bo
found.
