Senator Toombs, OF Georgia, has made s
magterly speech against the impressment act
and ruiaouS manner in which it has been ex.
ercisOd By officials in Georgia, and the Gov
ernor of the State and Legislature are taking
measures to protect their citizens from petu
lation and robbery of pretentious officials.
BY sapping and mining, q tunnel about ten
feet in diameter was recently made under the
walls of Castle Thunder, and some 80 Yankee
prisoners made their escape, nearly half Of
whom, however, have been recaptursd. The
excavation is said to have been executed
upon the most scientific plan, and ia supposed
to have been the work of some ofGrant's
men, after their experience and practice of
digging up and under the Notifications at
vicksburg.
The High Court Of Georgia has decided
that "just compensation does not mean
what the Commissioners place as fixed value
Of an article, but it's reasonable market value
At tas place where mpressed-allowing for
cost, charges and reasonable profit.
