Railroads and Sectional Jealousies.

A letter from South Carolina to the New
York Herald, thus describes the railroad fever
of that State, and the jealousies of Georgia:
The people now are excited and almost mad
about railroads. Some are being built, and
others are proposed, that ure necessary and
will paw we'll. Some are doubtful, aud others
again, that are proposed, if built, must prove
dead capital. This railroad excitement has
been greatly increased, no doubt by the ex-
treme illiberality of The last Georgia Iegisla-
ture, in refusing to grant the petitions of Ten
nessee and Alabama, to let the Georgia and
South Carolina railroads be united at Angus
Ia, by bridge across the Savannah river,
making their communication direct and COM
plete, by railroad, with Charleston, which mar
ket they preferred. But Georgia says the Au
gusla and Savannah markets are the best, and
as proof, they exact heavy and exorbitant tolls,
and other lets and hindrances at Augusta and
other points in the State, to prevent produce
from reaching Charleston.
The writer, who is of course a strong ad.
vocate for South Carolina, compares this re-
fusal Of Georgia to authorize the bridge to the
case Of an old man who prohibited his sons
from going to rich uncle's (South Carolina)
because they were too we'll fed there, and de-
spised the plain life at home, but allowed them
to visit poorer uncle tthe ports Of Georgia.
where they had "hog and hominy." All
these jealousies must subside in time. Rail-
roads are to be as numerous and as direct as
the main roads Of travel with carriages, &C.,
have been in times past. There will not be a
constipation of commerce at Danville, for in
stance, and unrestricted intercourse at Lynch
burg.
