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. SAVANNAH JOURNAL. FRIDAY, JUNE 3, L 853 Out of one eye beams compassion for bis perse cuted client, out of the other flashes joy for the profit made by him. A now dress for Mrs. Jura bloj a pound of caudy, no less, for little John ny, the rising hopes of all the Jumbles, and va rious minor indulgences which it will enable him to afford, rise pleasantly in the prospective, and porhaps-he thinks, perhaps with tho surplus .ho may be ablo to pay a part of that account be lias owed so long, and about which Snip has troubled biin so much. Under such happy in fluences, Fumble and Jumble will exert their acknowledged talents to the utmost, to secure tho man who can value sendees so well, nil that judicial justice awards. Ho who knows so well and performs too,his duty towards his Lawyers, cannot but perform, to the letter, his duty towards nil mankind. He would not injure an Ass, of which ho is neither owner or omployer. Fumble you know, is the senior in this celebrated firm, and tho responsibility of cour. •. rests upon him. I will tell you in confi dence what F. told ino before trial in this case. You aro not ignorant that he honors me with bis trust at times, and you may readily conceive that I would not for tho world do any thing to forfeit what I value so highly—so you must bo very discreet in keeping secret what I am about to tell you. [Concluded tomorrow.J 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. 1 With yon, sir, wo would join in grateful ac- | knowledgemout to tho Giver of every good and ! : perfect gift, lbr the success with which lie has 1 crowned our efforts. It has been truly said, - “man proposes but God disposes.” Without his aid wo can do nothing—but in onoj rightful un dertakings, we may look with a firm reliance on him for success. Again, sir, permit me for myself and those I represent, to tender to tho people of Savannah our thanks for your kind and cordial reception, and to assure you that they have boon received i in tho same spirit in which they have been of fered, and with grateful hearts. For myself, allow mo to ask the pardon of this meeting for the time I have detaind them, and to thauk ■ them for their kind and patient attention. -♦♦♦■ ■ A Fine Day In liny 11.
