The Macon Messenger. of the 18th ulI.
says they were passed by two men named
Johu Wall and VIM. Walker. Wall is a
tobacco trader, aud has frequently been
in Macon, and has resided in Madison,
Rockingham county, N. C.-but had
better he emigrnting to Oregon or Calilor-
mia, about this time. Walker is said 10
be negro trader, aud we believe from
the same coanty With Wall. They left
here on Saturday night, as soon as the
money was suspec ted, and il is believed
look The route 10 Florida. Wall is man
of middle size, sandy hair and whiskers !;
Walker is a small man, Of dark comolex.
ion, and wore Kentucky Jeans. The
public will do well to be on The lookout
for them.
There is a considerable quantity oil
Mexican dollars in circulation, which il
would do well 10 guard agains,.-Sauan
nah Georgian.
The cars will run OIL The Central Rail-
road every day hereafter. If the daily
line Of stages between This city and Co
lamGus he again established il would be
great benefit to The company az well as
convenience to passengers. An efur' Is
being made TO establish daily line OF
Stages from this city to Mobile. passing
through Lumpkin, Eufaula, Sc. which.
if accomplished, will lessen the time OF
travel between Mobile and Savannah
some fifteen or twenty hours, compared
with the present arrangement, apart from
the advantage arising from h daily com
munication. Success attend the effort

South Carolina Rail Roda.-We arc
in!armed that final arrangement has
been effected, between our Rail Ruad
Company aud the General Pos, Office
Department, by which the Mail Cars are
to leave here permanently al IL o'clock,
A. NJ. as they are doius at present. instead
OF o'clock, =. NJ. as was contemplated
by the new scedhle.
Our Rail Road Company are Ao-y pro-
vided with locomotives fully capable of
accomplishing the distance between this
+ city and Hamburg of Coi1m6i8. IN two
hours less time than formerly, thus emu
bling them to reach either point al the
same hour as when they left Charleston
ul 9 o'clock A. NJ. aad OIL ordinary occa-
sions full time is allowed for the mail to
reach here from the North at a period
sufficiently early to proceed Westward.
A short trip on The Road ON Saturday,
afforded US The opportunity also to observe
that great and very necessary improve.
menl has been made in The construction of
the passenger cars, which will place The
traveller at the most perfect ease and al.
ford accommodations and comfort not
inferior 10 any thing that we have ever
scen On any of The Northern Roads, and
&e have fad good opportunities OF Oh
servalon within The last few years, having
gone over all the principal Rail Roads
from Atlanta, tGa.) to Niagara Falls;
Two new Passenger Cars, the John
C. Calhoun" and Henry Clay" made
an experimen trip 10 LawreHce's station
and back. and workel 10 admiraton.--
| They run on twelve wheels, are placed
on elliptic springs, and provided with
breaks which arc sufficiently powerful to
bring them 10 full stop within the DIS
tance OF few wards, even al the Top OF
their speed. They are fitted up in elegant
style, provided with most cnrnmodIous
chongeable seats. private rooms, stands
containing pitchers Of water. wash hand
basins, indeed every convenience, for the
accommodation Of The most taslfdlous.
Along the roofing Of the cars runs cord
10 which bell is attached for the purpose
Of giving notice TO the engineer should
any occurrence require The train 10 be
stopped, iu our opinion a very necessary
precaulion.
These cars, we learn, were constructed
in the work shops Of The Company, under
the superintendance OF MIR. Geo. 5. Hack
er. anu certainly much credit Is due TO that
gentleman and those who practically exc.
cuted The work. for the handsome manner
10 which they have been goI up.
We perceive, TO that labels have been
attached to The cars, by which the pas
sensers can learn, without continual IN
guiry equally annoying to The inquirer
aud to those in the employ oil The conPa-
ny, which car isfor Columbia and which
for Hamburg, thus preventing error tha'
sometimes results in much inconvenience
If it would no, be considered inaPpropri-
ate. we would suggest that numbers be
placed on each seat, and that the tickets
issued contain corresponding numbers
This would at once indicate the seat the
traveller is righ,fully entitled 10, and pre-
vent confusion and dissatisfaction.
