William NcAfee's Vindtcati0N,

The session of the Presbyterian church
of Marietta, at their meeting last evening,
passed resolution expressing unimpaired
confidence in the integrity of William
McAfee, an officer of the church who ut a
recent term of the court of quarter ses-
sions was convicted of obtaining goods
under false prctences. Nor do they con-
slider his church membership in any way
compromised by his conviction. twill lie
remembered that the conviction of Mr..
McAfee was at the time a great surprise
to all, and the judge in sentencing him to
a nominal term cOmplmented him in the
highest terms upon the character he had
proven. This action taken by the church
removes from the character of an excel
lent man any possible stigma which his
conviction might have cast upon it.

AN IMPORTANT MOVEMENT.
New Orleans States.

The CArIToLIAN contained an item
OF news, which of most important
and interesting character, as the
movement referred to, if consummat-
ed, is destined to prove of great ben
egt to the large section of country.
A project is on footto open the Bayou
Manchac, and by a system of locks,
connect this natural canal with the
Mississippi river. TO that end, q
party of U. s. Surveyors are taking
the levels Of Bayou Manchac, with a
view of reporting upon the feasibility
of the plan.
Through the Manchac, Lake Pont-
chartrain and the Gulf coast would
be within few hours travel Of Ba-
ton Rouge, and an immense lumber
trade. it is claimed, would be devel-
oped that would render very valua-
BILE lands on the shores of the East
Louisiana parishes, that are worth
little or nothing at present.
In connection with this subject, two
important questions present them
selves for serious consideration. l..
What would be the effect of opening
this Bayou upon the Mississippi river,
as forming one of it's outlets, with or
without locks! ,. How would Lake
Pontcltartrain be affected by this flow
of river water, with an immense guam
tity of sedimentary deposit? These
are contingencies which must largely
enter into any discussion of this pro-
posed movement and we offer them
with view to their careful consid-

Inotice in your very valuable pa
per of the 10th nit, several interest
| ing articles on the subject of railroads.
The article copied from the Baton
Rouge paper shows that the people Of
that city are waking up to the i'm
portancc of railroad communication
with the interior on the east side of
the river--Clinton, La, seems to be
the objective point at this time, but
with the idea of extending it further
north If they succeed in getting it to
that place. The advantages Of this
road to Baton Rouge, and to all the
country traversed by it is too po-
tent to require discussion. The only
trouble is to obtain the means to con-
struct it. No road was ever con-
structed simply because it would be
Of advantage to the places through
which it passed. The only way to
build a railroad is to tap the pockets
of the capitalists. How can this be
done7 Not by telling them that it
will be Of vast Importance to this
place or that; but convince them that
stock in the concern will pay, and
that capital invested will be safe, and
money to any required amount
can be easily raised. Now can you
do that? If you can it settles the
question, the road will be bnilt. If
you cannot, il will be idle to talk of the
advantages of the road. am neither
capitalist or one directly interested
in the road; nor do | claim to be a
scientific, tar-seeing man, but claim
to take practical common sense view
of the case, and | undertake to say
that capital invested in either bonds
or stock in the concern will pay.
1t may be question whether a
road ending at Clinton will pay or not
my observation on short roads is
that it will nOt-but extend the road
to Liberty andI believe that it will
pay. And if the road is built to Lib
erty it will soon be extended still fur
ther north, and will not stop until it
connects with the Natchez and Jack
son at Fayette, or the N. O., st. L. &
c., road at Hazlehurst. This think
will make it the best paying road in
the South. This conclusion isnotjump-
ed at but is drawn from my observa-
tons ofthe face of the country through
which other paying roads pass. The
road from Liberty to Fayette or to
Hazlshurst will pass through the best
country for small farms that I have
ever seen. The land is very fertile,
well timbered with great variety of
the most valuable timber that we
have in this country, is well watered,
healthy, and adapted to the success
ful growth of the greatest variety of
field crops, garden vegetables and fl
nest fruits. Nothing is wanting to
make it one of the most desirable
countries for small farmers on the
globe but convenient transportation.
1t is this country Of small farmers with
their great variety of crops and the
endless quantities of fruit, vegetables
and dairy products that makes stock
in a railroad pay. | have extended
this article long enough, perhaps too
long. If YOU deem it worthy a place
in your columns publish it; if not,
consign it to the waste basket.
