Proposed Annexation Of Florida to Georgia.
--l From the Savannah RepublIcan.l

I Thistopic has been frequently discussed OF
late it 10 true, by private individuals, but such
as are presumed to represent o considerable
public sentiment in the State of Florida. We
have no means of knowing the sentiment Of the
great body of her people, and if we had the
slightest Indication Of their opposition to the
measure proposed, we should refrain from all
sllusi0n TO the subject. I'D ....
It Is proposed, as before stated, to divide the
State Of Florida by the Apalachicola River, the
western division then to be annexed to the State
of Alabama, and all east OF the line, including
the islands, to be incorporated with the State of
Georgia.
While such division would straighten the
the line OF Alabama and givesymmetry to her
proportions, besides giving her one Of the best
seaports in the Union, furnished with a Navy
Yard and well fortified, the accession to Geor-
gia would make her imperial in her domain,
and with climate ahording nearly every pro.
duction of the world. We should raise ice in
our northern, and tophicsl fruits in our southern
SEQ ton. The country annexed, too, under the
new order Of things, would settle up rapidly,
and soon become one of the most prolific Sec
tious ofthe continent. Readily accessible by
natural aud artificial highways, in few years
there would remain but little of its tillable do
main unappropriated to the wants Of man
kind.
The new and independent existence upon.
which both Florida and Georgia will probably
soon enter, will afford an excellent opportunity
for negotiations on this subject, without any in
reference from any quarter whatever. They
can arrange the matter to suit themselves, and
no one can rightly say nay.
The public debt of Florida may be regarded
as, perhapa, the leading obstacle to the proposed
but We apprehend this will prove
more Of an imaginary than real hinderence
Whatever may be her debts, her resources, well
90 they would be In the hands of Geor.
gia, are ample to meet them all. An arrange
ment might readily be made with the bond.hold.
ers for existing securities to remain in sfdft
quo, .uniisturbed by the act Of annexation, only
that the administration Of the assets would
pass from the hands Of one State into the hands
Of another. Georgia and Alabama need not In.
cur any additional obligation by the movement.
At future day, should the project assume
anything Of serious practical aspect, we shall
'ecur to it and discuss the whole matter in de-
.ail. AT present, we throw ont oniy such re-
sections as occur to us on the first blush of the
question. 80 - -! --1, =. 49,

Did the Black Republicans Want the Navy
Yard? $. t.,.


There is now some reason 70 believe that the
Black Republicans Of this city set afloat the ru-
NOR about the seizure of the Navy Yard, for
thel purpose Of having it garrisoned, or partly
garrisoned. by New York State troops. The
mist that hangs around the origin of the rumor
confirms this view. No one can traee'it. Half
our repotorial corps have spent hours endeavor.

Captain Foote says information was received
which justified the hubbub, but we doubt IL. OF
course some sensation scfihbler or talker may
have said or written such and such things, but
nothing short Of well authenticated statement
could place the Commander right before the
country, when he acted with such precipitation.
How did he know but he was used as the tool
of traltors7 What could his eighty marines
have done against the five hundred armed SOL

COMPROMISES. of our Southern friends

South may be compromised and the existing

who believe that no honorable compromise can

The New York Hsrald proiesses to have re-
csived by telegraph from Toronto. Canada
West, the very important intelligence that the
Toronto leader, tho Government paper, OF
Thursday lust, declared itself to be in position
to announce in the most positive terms, that II
is the intention of the English government to
acknowledge the independence Of the Southern
Confederacy as soon as tis formed. The Her
aid adds e, ,,-.
The Canada authorities, in view OF the probas
bilty of all the British provinces OF North
America being soon annexed to our Northern
States, take deep Interest In our affairs. The
information has probably come direct from the
English government, in reply to question put
by the Canadian government, which would be
naturally anxious to know what part itself should
play in the event of 6 disruption OF our con-
fedesacy. The answer is that Great Britain
will recognise the independence of the South
ern Union.

There is no doubt that within week all the

this may be accomplished without bloodshed. If

The same paper says in another place:
We are pleased to learn that Colonel Chase
has determined to guard against the contingent
cy Of blockade, by providing six months sup
ply of provisions for this place. If we are to
have protracted war (and IL is the part of
wisdom to prepare for the worst,) this Is q pre-.
caution which is essentially necessary. We
