Georpia.

A friend has favored us with the annual
message of His Excollency Gov. BRowN, of
Georgia, which was communicated to the
Legislature of that State on the 3D. instant.
1t is devoted exclusively to the domestic con
Germs of the great commonwealth over which
he presides, and exhibits most satisfactory
condition of her affairs. His Exccllency re-
commcnds that the banks be not allowed to
issue hereafter bills of less denomination
than $40 or $50, and urges strongly the adop-
ton of the common school system" in that
State. The message contains other wise and
practical suggestions, and is characterized by
wisdom and ability throughout. we append
an interesting extract or two from it:
"As Georgians we have much reason to be
proud of tho financial condition of our State,
and of her high character abroad. Probably
the bonds of no other State in the Union are
more current, or command y higher price in
the market. IIcrpe iple entertain sense of
honor that will never permit a stain to rest
upon her proud escutcheon; and they will
see to it that her high character is maintain
ed. In consideration of her ability to pay, it
may justly be said, that her public debt is
little more than nominal. Without reference
to any other great resources, the Western and
Atlantic Railroad will, in my opinion, COM
mand from eight to ten millions of dollars in
the market. by tho time the last instalmcns
OF the pubic debt is due. The whole debt
does not amount to half that sum, and may,
in few years, be extinguishcd from the in
comes of the Road alone.
"The State with from one to two millions
ofinhabitants, large territory, o salubrious
climate, immense mineral wealth, vast agri-
cultural resources, and en- extensive system
of internal Improvements, may then be out of
debt, and in possession of ten millions of dol
lars worth of State property. And by the
exercise of little prudence and forecast in
her legislation, she may also have q common
school fund as large, and a standard Of edu-
caticn as high as any State in the Union"

The Legislature.

The Legislature of South Carolina con-
ycncs, in Columbia on Monday the 22d in
slant There is larger proportion of now
members elected this year than usual. The
Senate roll contains the names Of very many
new members, and, in this number, we are
pleased to notice q fair proportion of polish
cd and liberal minded gentlemen.
The ensuing session will be an interesting
one. The Judiciary system, the banks, free
schools, the completion of the new State house,
our railroad system, with the election of n
Governor, United States Senator and officers
of minor grade, will invest the proceedings
of the Legislature with unusual interest.
We are making arrangements to lay con-
densed report of the proceedings Of both
houses before our readers.

The State Elections.

The recent elections, north and west, have
not disappointed us in the general result
New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, WIS
consin and Michigan have gone for the black
republicans. Delaware is democratic from
one end to the other. DOUGLAS has also car
ried Illinois against the administration as
we'll as the abolitionists, which secures his
return to the United States Senate, and also
stamps him as powerful man. lie should
be proud of a victory that has so little in it to
crafty others, or benefit the democratic par
ty to which he claims to belong.
The returns are in such confused state
that they would be almost unintcllgiblc to
our readers. When the smoke clears away
we shall give the exact result of these cleo
tions, with such comments as may suggest
themselves to our mind.

The Seanel.


Tho following sequel to q not very reputa-
bio occurrence, of recent date, is taken
from the last Anderson Gazette.
Over two months ago, Mr. S. N. Carpen.
ter applied to me to act for fair salary as
Editor of a paper, to be called "The Dollar
Weekly Times" and 10 be published by
hin,sclfat this place. After mature dclib-
Grafton, and receiving solemn assurance
that Mr. Carpenter had the requisite funds
to carry on his paper, consented to edit
'The Times, permitted my name to be
inserted in the Prospectus, and upon his
agreeing to hire horse for Inc, agreed to
assist him in getting up subscribers I
done so, and upon Friday of October Court,
made cut the order for the ,ernss end ,nata-
rials, and was assured by Mr.. Carpenter
that he mailed it ON the following Tuesday.
On that day, Tuesday, the 10th, he offered
me a seat in his buggy down to James En-
erson's, Esq. went that far with him,
and upon parting learned from him that he
was going to set out ON tour on the fol-
lowing morning to canvass for subscribers
at Due West Corner, Abbeville G.. H., El-
berton, Ca, or Lowndesville, s. c., and
would call for me at Col. John Martins, on
Friday, the 22d of October He never
called, and to my modification and aston
ishment, learned upon reaching home
that he had left for the West What im-
PEELED him to take that course, cannot inn
agne. l have heard that he was persuad-
/ ed to leave. / only know that he has acted
in bad faith to me and the patrons of the
"Timcs" succeeded in identifying my
name with humbug- took advantage of
the respectability which his proposed paper
and my name could give hirl, and defraud-
ed many pcrsons--left me to pay the hire
of horses used in his service, and which he
agreed to pay; and has beat an inglorious
retreat from Anderson District, and the
publication of the "Dollar Weekly Times" !"
The only amount of money for tho
"Times" received by myself, was one dol
lar sent to me to hand to Mr. Carpenter, by
Mr. Smith, of Cokesbury. | paid Mr..
Carpenter the money, and will refund it to
Mr. Smith. Whether Mr. Carpenter re-
ceiyed any moromoney for the "Timos," ]
do not know; if he did am sorry for it,
/ but cannot be held responsible, as / gas

Carpenter has forfeited all claim to that

Value of Railroads.

Value OF Railroads.
From an able and extended article on
Railroads, we extract the following from
the Penn. "Enquirer =
A thousand points might be stated, cal
culated to prove their advantages, but OIL the
present occasion VIC will conline ourselves
to few
They carry tho mails of the United States
with q certainty and cclcrity never antici-
patcd in olden times. Nor do they allow
mail robbers to stop the cars and bear away
the letters.
They transport the soldiers of the Re-
public, with all tho munitions of war, at all
times, cheaply and expcditiously. During
tho war of 1912, q barrel of flour at BufIa7
10 cost $40, in consequence of the snail-like
travel of the horse aud wagon line.
They have enhanced the value Of lands
greatly ntho eastern and middle sections
of the Union, and in the almost boundless,
West, the value Of the territofy Is nearly if
not quite quadruplcd by them.
They have enlarged our commerce be-,
tween the several States immensely In
fact, they may be said to hare taken up
whole cities, with their countless inhabi--
tants, quietly, as ifby magic, and have set
them down in close proximity to other Aou-
rishing cities.
They protect our seaboard from the as
sault of a foreign enemy, as they can upon
The fash " the telegraph notify the whole
West if any foe should tlheaten to land
upon our soil, and thus hurry down to the
point of attack innnmerable men andaFns,
to drive back the assailaDts.
They may be said to stand instead Of
forts. Eor no nation would think of#enA
turing to land, with such swift and prompt
lines ofraiiroads to. pour down our forces
ON them almost instantancouslys
It Is now conceded by all rellecttinsse, mon
that if o railroad had been in existence be-
tween Philadelphia and Washington, the
British would never have made an assault
upon the capitol of our country.
Our railroads are therefore wall Of de-,

conservative suggestive and instructive
speeches on Federal politics, in connection
with the slavery question, that wc have ever
published or ever read, we spread before our
readers this morning. We refer to the speech
of Senator Hammond, delivered to his con-
stitucnts at Barnwcll Court House, S. c., the
other day. Contrastcd with the late abol-
ton harangucs of w. III. Seward, ut Rochcs-
ter and Rome, it presents us, in the boldcst
relief, the difference between tho vicws of a
calm and inquiring statesman and the dcs-
peratc clcctonccring tricks of an ambitious
and unscrupulous domagoguc."
The Times looks upon it as calm in its tonc'
clear and precise in its positions, and cmi-
ncntly judicial and dispassionatc in its views
of current events. 1t adds:
"Wc look upon this speech as ono of great
interest and Importance. If its views arc
adopted and its advice followed by the South
Mt large, it opens the way to that most de-
sirablo consummaton, the suspension of the
slavery agitation, and the restoration of all
sections and all interests to n condition of
mutual forbcarancc and toleration."
