Augusta hroniclo and Sentinel will show what is be? ing done for the completion of the Macon and Augusta Railroad, and what are the first ef? fects of tho absorption of the stock of the At? lantic and Gulf Bailroad by tho Central Rail? road of Gooigia: AUGUSTA AND MACON BAXLBOAD. We had the pleasure of a call from George H. Hazlehurst, Esq., chief engineer of the above road, yesterday, and, through him, learned that the City Council o? Macon sub? scribed, on Monday night last, for fifty thou? sand dollars of additional stock to this important enterprise. Tho citizens of Ma? con aro fully aroused , to the importance of an oarly jomplotion of the road, and liberal individual subscriptions will-also be made. We learn, also, that President Magrath, of the South Carolina Road, and Judge King, of the Gtoigia Boad, wore in consultation in this city ?esterday as to tho best moans of pushing tho lacon Road through from Millodgovillo at once. The distance from the latter place to Macon is only thirty miles, more than one-half of which distance is already graded and ready for tho iron. If Judgo K^ug and Colonel Ma? grath will only doteimioo to have the line completed, they have tho means and can put it through in a few months. This is an impor? tant connection, both for Augusta and Charles? ton, and we trust tbat it will not bo pormittel to he neglected any longer. HOW THJE PEOPLE SUFFaB. We learn that ono of tho first fruits of tho mammoth railroad speculation rece ally con? summated by tho Central and Southwestern Railroads with tho Citv of Savannah for a con? trolling share in the ?tock of the Atlantic and Gulf Roud, was dovelop8d in a meeting held in Savannah, day boloro yesterday, between tho President of tho Southwestern Road, Colonel Holt, tho President of tho Central Road.Colonel Wadley.and the President of tho Gulf Road.Ool onel Scriven, by which a new freight tariff for thoso roads wai adoptod ranging from three'to six hundred pea- cent, hxglusr than present rales! Cotton, which tho Central and Southwestern Roads carry now irom Columbus to Savannah at 20 cents per hundred, is rated in the new schedule at $1 35 por hundred. From Eufaula the present rate of 89 cents is raised to $1 30. From Bainbridge the present rato of $1 per bale is raised to $5 per balo. The tariff of freights from other points on these roads are raised correspondingly high. The peo? ple ot Georgia can see clearly now what we told them several days since would be tho effect of the groat Central Railroad monopoly, under Mr. Wadley. Tue interests of the peo? ple are to bo made subservient to the imperi? ous and dictatorial will of the President of tho Central Read. Whether they wiU submit long ~~ncipled combinations against ie State's interest, remains to Jof&?Kure meets in a few days, and we trusPsuoh illation will be enaotod as will protect the peV?f? .,rom UDjust schemes of these monopoii$t8' _ , > i mm 11 -8 FBOM A HORSE-BLANK ET 'NCT J.0 A ?A0E VffitL.-Mr. C.

Flight of the Confederate President from Richmond -Preparations tor and Incidents of tho Journey-Demeanor of Air. SJ avis at Ahuevllle- How he waa Treated h y Alexander II. Stephen*. In the January nurabor of Packard's Month? ly, Mr. Edward v. Pollard bas a "true" sketch of i ho flight aud capturo of Jofferaun Davis. The article is marked by tho well known bit? terness aud prejudice of its author towards tue Confederate Proeidont, aud ?ts statements m*y thorofore bo received with many grains of allowance. Tho following extra?is will givo our roadera a fair idea of ita style and temper : PBfls?AitATioss ron mam. While Grout- and Loo thundered beforo Pe? tersburg, Jstfjrsou Davis fled froui Richmond, without a word of paulie explanation; with none of that benedioUon or encouragement which a groat leader is oxpectod to impart to his people in such a catastrophe-e&oapi Lg with thc ignominy of au obscure, moan fugi? tive, if not positively in the character t>f a do sorter. Some explanation hal boon offered of his singular neglect on this occasion of those whom, in his day of power, ho was accustom? ed, after the affectation of a fond and paternal ruler, to call "his people," in the statement thai tho government at Richmond had no ex peotation of lace's dicastor, and was thus pain? fully hurried in its evacuation of tho capital. Tho statement is uuiiuo. and tho oxcuse is unavailing. The writer well knows, what has nothoretofore been imparted to public curiosi? ty, that Jefferson Davis had, many weeks be? fore Lee's catastrophe, m ado the most careful aud exacting preparations for his escape. Thc matter had been fa ly consulted with his cabi? net in profound seoresy; and it had boon agreed that, to securo tho escape of tho President and his principal officers, tho Shenandoah should be ordered to cruise off the coast of Florida to take the distinguished fugitives on board, who had selected that coast f>r fchoir exit from the Confederacy, and their extrication hom ita failing fortunes. These orders had been sent to the Confederate cruiser many days before Loe'a linea were broken. It waa calculated that th*? President's par? ty might make an easy and delib?rate esc.?po in the Way agreed upon, as the communi? cations with tho Florida coast woie then scarcely doubtful, and once on the Shenan? doah-a fast sailer, tho most valuable rem? nant of the Confederate navy-they might soon obtain au asylum ou a foroign shore. Other preparations wore made for the flight. All the papers of the government wero revised and m irked for destruction, abandonment or preservation, according to their contents; and even Mr. Davis' private baggage waa put in order for transportation. Of course the publie knew nothing of these preparations, and it did not even suspect them. Mr. Daniel, of the Richmond Examiner, had repeatedly said, with bitterness, that whatever the event of the war, whatever its misfortune, Mr. Davis would be certain to provide for his personal safety, above that of all other*; aud indeed, this jour? nal httd suggested that, for thia mean reason, the Preaideut had invariably blanched a t any retaliation upon the enemy involving tho pen? alty of death. But many people resented this thought ot the Examiner; they persisted in be? lieving that President Davis would &taad with the army when the Confederate fl*g waa low? ered, rind accept o common lot with them and the people; and they called to mind bia hero o words, spoken to the troops in Virginia in 1801, at the beginning of the war: "When the last line of bayonets ia levelled I will bo with you." After having safely bestowed hi? important papers, aud Dy this measure consulted to soin? degree his personal safety, it mi^it bo supposed that Mr. Davis would bo prepareu id leave Richmond with some appoaraoe of self possession and dignity. But after ill the pro? visions 1er bis flight, tho signal for it was^o ?vki-?cn andAdrfcmft? ?e-^aumiPtt'd tfr*-'fe{rV?^T??? Lee's dread telegram, while he sat in St. Paul's Chnroh, with tue sunshine ot a cai n and beautiful day pulsing through the win? dows-as to have some effect of surprise at least, breaking down his equanimity, and re? ducing him to that condition of fluster and tremulousness with which the weak man re? ceives the news of misfortune, no matter how long he has vaguely expeoted it, and practiced against the moment of its announcement. HB BOBS THE TBE ABU HY. Ho nervously prepared at his houso his pri? vate baggage, assisted by Mrs. Davis, and he never ventured in the streets until, under cover of tho night, he got unobserved ou tho train that was to convey him from Richmond. Ho did not forget tee gold in the Treasury; that, amounting to less than $10,000, it had been proposed some days before, in Congress, to distribute as largesses to tho discontented sol? diers; but Mr. Davis had insisted upon reserv? ing it for exigenoies, and it was now scoured in his baggage.* He did not forget his sword, that, a costly present from some of his ad? mirera in England, had been sent to tho Rich - mond'Hrmory for some repairs; it was aban? doned to tho fire there. Tho last soon of this relic ot the Southern Confederacy was a twist? ed and gnarled stem of stool, on private exhi? bition in a lager-beer saloon in Richmond, garnished with a certificate that it was what remained of Jeff. Davis' sword, and that the curiosity might bo purchased for two hundred dollars. Whether the retailer of lager has yet disposed of his treasure wo do nob know. HE WEEPS AT ABBEVILLE. Mi*. Davis reached Abbeville on the first of May. So far ho had been accompanied by the fragments of five brigades, amounting in num? ber to less than one thousand mon, and reor? ganized into two battalions, at tho front and in rear of tiio long train whico. signalled his flight and foolishly obstructed his effort at es? cape. There vt sic already painful evidences of the demoralization of .the escort, and tho sto.'v told almost at every mile, by stragglers from Johnst n's command, was not calculated to inspiro them. At Abbeville, Mr. Davis re? solved upon a council of war. It was compos? ed of the five brigade commanders, and Qon 6ral Braxton Bragg (for the year past tho '.military adriser'roi the President' was ad? mitted to this last sceno of tho deliberations of tho lost cause. lu tho council, Mr. Davis spoke with more than his accustomed faillit/and earnestness, inspired by hope, but without volubility or ex? travagance, lie made a' statement of surpass? ing plausibility. 1 ho South, he declared, was suffering from a panic; it yet had resources to continue the war; it WAS tor those who remain? ed withnrms in their hands to give an exam? ple to reanimate others; such an act of devo? tion, besides being the most sublime thing in history, might yet save the country, aud eieot again its declining revolution. "It is but ne? cessary," he said, "that the brave men yet ?with me should renew their determination to continue the -war; they will b* u nuoieua for rapid reinforcements, and will raise the signal of reanimation for the whole country." No ono of the counoil answered him at length; tho replies of the commanders were, almost sunk. to whispers. Tho scone was bo coming painful, and it was at last agreed that each m his turn should announce his decision. Each answered slowly, reluctantly, in the neg? ative. The only words added wore ?hat, though they considered the war hopeless, they would not disband their men until .they had guarded the President to a place of safety. "No,** exclaimed Mr. Davis, passionately, "I will liston to no proposition for my safety. I appeal to you for the cause, of tho country"." Again ho urged the commanders to accept his views. "We were silent." says General Basil Duke, ono of the council, "for wo could not agree with him, and we respected him too much to reply." Mr. Davis yet stool erect, raised his hands to his head, os if in pain, and suddenly ex? claimed: "All hopo is gone 1" added haughti? ly, "I eoe thai th? friends of tho South are . p?epa??u io oouSeut SJ uer degradation;" and t hen sweeping the oompany with a proud a ad despairing glance, he attempted to pass from the room. But the blow was too much for his feeble or? ganization. His face was white with anger aud disappointment, aud the mist of unshed toara was in bis eyes-tears which pride strug? gled to keep back. The sentiment that all was lost went through his heart like the slow and measured thrust of a sword; ts the wound sunk Into it, it left him speechless; loose and tottering, he would have fallen to the floor had not General Breokinridgo ended the scene by leading him faltering from the room, in a dead and oppressive silence tho deserted leader, the fallen chief, secured a de? cent retreat fer .?.?o?*? which tears onlj could relieve. HS ZS INSDLiT.n. The cruellest neglect ot insult of?hia miefor tun;; happened in passing through the small town of Griswoldville, tho homo of Alexander II. Stopheua. Mr. Davis, now an object of eympathy, worn, deserted, romdnod two or three days in GriBwoldville; be migLt chere, at loa -t, hnve exnostei that one \tfho b ad been so near him iii office as the Vice-president of the Conf>deraoy, would havo visited him, to ten? der some hospitality or to offer hint au honor? able condolence. Mr. Stephens never came near him, never sent him token or message, to his shame bo it mentioned; for surely a mean nature ia never moro despicable than in its treatment of misfortune, and its cowardly refuge, on such ocoasions, in old resentments or in selfish calculations. HE BEC03J28 AN EMIGRANT. On leaving GriswoMvillo it was determined that Mr. Davis and bis iamiiy, whom he expect? ed soon to overtake, should thereafter travel as au oralKinufc porty. Mr. Reagan wa? still in his company. General .lireokioiidgo bad left outside the'town or Washington, taking with him forty-five Kentucky soldiers-a.sU'sggling remnant of Morgan's old brigade. Teu mount? ed mon had offered to escort Mrs. Davis, and although they hal accepted their paroles, just? ly considered that they night proteo!-, a dis tvessed lady from marauders. All takone of .tho President's importance, in dross and air, wore laid asido; covered wagons, a priok-majo and cooking utensils were provided at Washington; and it was designed that Mr. Davis, bis wife, and his wife's sister should pass os a simple country family emigrating from Georgia, and having" fallon in with straggling soldiers*for their protection. Mr. Davis' dignity was laid asido without muoh difficulty. Carlyle says: "A King in tho midst of his bodyguard, with all his trumpets, war horses and gilt standard bearers, will look groat, though he be little, bat only some Roman Carns can give audience to satrap ambassadors while scated on the ground, with a woollen cap, and supping ou boiled peas,' like a common soldier." Mr. Da? vis, in the dress of a country farmer, had none of thcsQ traces of imperialism which cling to those "born to the people." His features, just and handsome, without being remarkable,woie. t boso which mig .it command by assumed airs, or might bu praotioed to particular expressions, but BC arc ely those which could assert superior? ity without an effort and at a glanoe. Ho in? curred but little chance of deteotion in,the dress he bad assumed of ar. honest, well-to-do emigrant. Um the last device of the distinguished fugi? tive, the only one in .which he had shown any ingenuity, and had confessed his real anxiety for encape, was in vain, and he was? oapbured three days journey from Washington. Ho had scarcely expected to fall in with the enemy north of the Chattahoochee River, tho bounda? ry of tho "Department of tho Southwest," and there he had designed to part with his wife, and to commit her to her journey to tho She? nandoah. He was ovortakeu by a small body of Federal oavalry, originally sent oat to post a skirmish line through that put of Georgia reaching to Augusta, bat now diverted .to his pursuit. -North Carolina is to hassan eight thou sand acre park, with*?*.

' -TPhe Mackonochio case, which has been ex? citing so much attention in England, bas been decided by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Counoil, the court of last resort in ec? clesiastical suits, and composed of the Presi? dent of the Privy Council and of the Judges of the highest Courts of Equity and Law. The case was taken up by appeal from a judgment by Sir Robert Phillimore, in the Court of Arches. The charges against Maokonnchie were "knee? ling or prostrating before the consecrated ele? ments and the use of lighted candles." The Privy Council after an extended hearing and due consideration, announced their decision against Mackonochie, condemning the practices charged against him. to publications. -?^USSEL>L?S BOOK STORR.

November 14 3mos mr THE REV. C. W. VINING, WHO HAS safely returned from a journey in the East, thought? fully brings us, among other curiosities, some of the newspapers published in Egypt and Turkey. They aro in four languages, French, Turkish, Ar? menian and Greek. We cannot read them, but he can, and through his patience wo have been grati? fied to learn their contents, and the materials of which newspapers arc made up in tho land of the Osmanlls. Our American enterpriss is well rep? resented : stoves, wooden and tin-wa re, p'oughs, azei and tools are advertised from tbis country. In each of the four languages are heralded the virtues of tho remedies made by our celebrated c?untry ,ljepADr.jr,, C\ Ayer & Co., of Lowell. They seem not to depend? on tooti:- ?iouic i.*u?iuvi ftflC con? fidence abroad, but publieh tho certificates of the Musselmen rulers themselves, to the cure3 which those medicines have mado in their midst. The Reverend gentleman informs us that the whole of the remedial aid employe 1 in those countries, comos from Europe or A meriel, as they possess BO medical colleges or schools in which they have any confi? dence themselves. There aioso tho religious ideas ' which pervade the human family, but almost all that is usetul in art or invention must be carried back to these, the earlier settlements of mankind.

It 1B somo consolation to the naturally w eek and feeble to know that tboy can be so invigorated and built up, by a proper use of the means which science has placed at their disposal, as to have a muoh better chance of long life and exemptions from disease and pain, than the most athletic of their fallows who are foolish enough to suppose themselves invulnerable, and act accord? ingly. It is not too much to say that moto than half the people of tho civilized world need an occasional tonic, to ' enable them to support the strain upon their bodies and n inda, which the fa-t Ufo of this restless ngo occasions, infauna pure, wholesome, unexciting tonio is tho graad desideratum of the busy millions, and they havo thoarthxe in HOSTEr TER'S STOMACH BITTERS.
