Jlic Florida Rail Road.
Reports li:\v? reached lis from various sources, ,
concerning,a inisiimJi'rstaii'iinj or controversy
that has occurred between (ioverr.or retry. or j
Florida, and Co!, George. W. Call, respecting j
the Florida Rail Road Company.
As Gov. l'eirv?like many of his constiui- ]
ents?is a South Carolinian, and as the Roads
which are aflWted hv litis controversy are I
watched with anxious interest bv many readers
in this city and Sia'e, we give the following o.v j
plniialion of tlio matters at issue, as furnished
w a correspondent of the Tallahassee Ftori j
dian :? Charleston Courier.
The act generally known as the internal iiu- j
provement law, provides among other tilings,
that a line of rail road from Feriuindiua to
Tainpa Bay, with a branch to Cedar K-vs, are
^Mtable improvements to he aided l?v the inter- ]
Wm improvement fund. The Florida Rail u iad ;
'Company have undertaken to bu:M this line of j
Toad, and its branch, and have availed tlieiin j
aelves of the benefits of the internal improve
inent tuml. Governor Perry therefore insists
that'they shall simply carry out in good faiili
'that undertaking, and in order to economize and
iprotccl the public funds as far as practicable, he
contends that the location of the road should be
bo made u|?on the most direct route from Kcrliandina
to Tampa Bay, fixing the point of di
vergeiice for the branch to Ce far Key at such
place upon the main line as will b>->t subserve
the interests of the greatest number of the
people.
To this end the Governor insisted that a part
of the road l?ad been improperly located, that
instead of running upon the West >ide of Panic's
Prairie, it should have been located to run upon
--t- - 15 _ j -r .i it : : i c? ,i

divergence for the branch to Cedar Key, at or
near Alicanopy, would shorten the roirf to
Tampa 1G miles, and add to the length of the
Cedar Key branch only 4 miles, making a clear
saving to the fund of the entire cost of 12 nitles
of road, or about (s.'JQj.OOO) three hundred
thousand dollars. The Company, however,
declined to change the location as desired by
Gov. .Perry, and in lieu thereof, proposed to
commence, the work upon the Tampa road at
once, and put that part of it included within
tthe points of Hatchet's Creek and Alicanopy
tuntW immediate contract, &c. I understand,
however, that the company, through Mr. Call,
have denied making any such proposition, or
having entered int<> any agreement with (?<>v.
Perry, or otherwise placed themselves under
?ny obligations to build the road to Tampa, as
ailedged ; and this constitute* the issue between
the parties.
[From the San Francisco Herald ]
Later from Salt Lake.
Below we give some important intelligence
from Salt Lake, received by way of Carson
Valley, and telegraphed from Sacrumer.to. The
mail) fact appears to be that troops attempted
to force a passage through E< ho Canon, bu1
w ere unsuccessful.
"Sackahento, January 9 ISoS.
"Messrs. Middleton and Pearson arrived :?t
'Carson Valley <>n the Gill, and Mr. Pearson Ins
just arrived from Carson Valley via ^hc I>ig Tree

the 6th prajjoonv. had attempted to force their
sway thrnugn Echo Canon ; in the attempt,
four ol the dragoons were killed. Thinking it
hnpossible to force the pas*, Colonel Johnston,
who had assumed command of the troops, retired,
an J in a few davs despatched Col. Alex,
fcl.der, with twenty-eight dragoons as an escort
lo St. Louis, to obtain supplies. Col. Johnston
then retreated a short distance to Sulphur
HSprings and took the Sublette cut ofF around
to the north of Salt Lake to LJold Elder, from
which Messrs. Middlelon and Pearson started
December 12th. Col. John-don was there at
the time with the second and third dragoons
-and light artillery, seven six pound and five
twelve Paixhans. He has sent foraging parties,
fifty men each, and has obtained 2,400 cattle
and other supplies of all kinds. The Colonel
has pickets on' all the way from Hold Elder

An escort of seven dragoons come ith the

about the 1st of .May, as he expects Harney
will arrive on the other side about that j
time.
There are three companies of dragoon* at Foit
Brulger. Fort Supply, twelve miles jonth, has
been evacuated by the .Mormons, an I the troops
have possession of it. Mr. Pe.-rsori hi? s<*c:>
no snow, except since leaving Carson Valley.
Johnson's Command have eipeiienccd no incon
venience whatever from snow, not having s*en
any. Harnev will hive the '21 Dragoons, three

Gi:x. II ASK KM. AfJAt.N I.VSAVK.? We clip j
the following paragraph from the I.itiisviiie
Courier, of the Oth instant., from which it wiij
appear that Gen. Win. Ilu-krll is again insane,
and confined in the L-malic H^ylum at Hopkinsville,
Ky. :
'"Our attentive correspondent. "Broomstix,'
telegraph" us from llopkinsville, under < 111e
of yesterday, that Gen. Win. T. Ha?ke||, of
Tennessee, has again become d> ranged, and i-?
now confined in the hu:i.ii;c A Hum at Ifopkuisville.'
"It will be recollected that Gen. II. was recently
dismi.-ed from the Asylum at L'-xi'igton,
cured. We understand, however, that he h is
been drinking hud ever siri>-e, anl to whisky, i
probably, may be attributed the cause of hi> !

Snoiv ;?.:<!
Frit! iv morning's light uawued upon a wintry
scene. Karth and aP its objects, says the
SfXtrlau, were c??ve?cd with snow to life depth
of perhaps three inches, and which continued
to bill for seventh hours, when it degenerated
into a sle'd v t tin, on wliicli night closed in.?
On Saturday morning the trees were loaded
down with their icy eating, and in my, unable
to hear the accumulating load, sunpjv d oil",
and lay piouc upon the ground. Fortunately
the rain and snow almost wholly ceased dun
ing Satu'dav, and no, wind arose to sway
about the burdened bough?. 11 it !"i this, incalculable
damage would h ive resulted to or
chud an 1 forest. S.unlay, (hough- sunless,
hrnti r'n with it sufficient wurnifh to cause a !
thaw, and relieved limis-* and tree of the ina>s

warm Mill, <?x<!ited so groat au influence 41
the sti.>'-v, that a few d ivs more will remove I
everv v??>tigo of it from our imiivdinte neigliboihood,
and I-ave us only the rod hills of our
inheritance. The mountain* north \ve>t of us,
however, loom up->11 the horizon like glacier^,
ami from appearances give promise of retaining
their "wintry habiliments for many days.
Snow and Slkjbt.?On Thursday night,
savs the Greenville Patriot, commenced the
n: >st memorable season experienced for-many
years in this region. . Snow bygau. falling dtping
the niglit, and was soon followed by a
continued sleet, which lasted until Saturday
morning, robing the forest and the village in
the ail wry sheen < f winter. The view presented
to the eye of one who looked upon it ns a
display of grandeur, was surpassingly hauti
ful. On every hand nought was to be seen but
the ice sheeted trees with their myriads of stalactites
swaying to and fro, and almost jingling
a* they sw-jved. To the eve of the imagina
live, it presented the idea of some magnificent
and extensive fairy groito.
Many valuable fruit trees have been utterlv
destroyed Shade trees, on which we have gazcd
year after year, rapt with their fair proportions
ami luxuriant foliage, are now trailing
in.the du*t. Under the accumulated weight
of their icy apparel, limh by Jimb they have
fallen to the earth'; and that which was a feudays
ago the pride of our village and thecyuo'
sure of those who love the beautiful, is now
an unsightly object, scarred from top to root,
and in manv cases s'ruck to the earth. Valu
able hedges have been rendered almost worthless.
The forest walks give terrible evidence
ot* the power <>f the Ice king; and in many
places the roads were barricaded with broken
limbs and fallen trunk?.
Few of u? slept unbroken slumbers on Fii.
day night. The .sound as of rattling musketry
and the distant booming of cannon, as limb
after limb parted from its parent stem and
struck the ground, indicated unmistakably the
work of destruction that was going on without.
The damage that lias accrued cannot, of course
be reckoned in d-dlars and cents?it is incalculable
; and it will task the ta*te and labor of
many years to obliterate the injury that has
been sustained in the few days just passed
by.

difficulty in ohtafning means. A large force,
both under the former and present comiactors,
has been employed ??n the Stump-house tunnel,
with very perceptible tlfeet. In truth, this has
been considered the great obstacle to lie completion
of thi* magnificent enterprise; and,
undei these circumstances, we have noted
with deep solicitude the progress that is making.
On Saturday last, the workmen in Shaft
Yn J ilmve the headini' through to the exc-a
vat inn in tlif eastern end of the tunnel.
This interesting event wns hailed l?y the op
eratives with shouts of applause, equalled only
by the cheering that greeted (Jov. Allston en
his visit last summer, This wiil give from the
east 9<)0 feet of heading complete, near some
500 foot of which is ready to receive the timber
and r ?:ls. Shaft No. 2, (the deepest) has
been sunk to grade, tunnwl size, and the energetic
operatives are driving the heading before
them with gratifying sueces*. At Shaft No,
S. the depth of over one hundred feet has been
made. The water here ll >?*? in large quantities,
hut the substitution of other machinery
will soon lessen this difficulty. From the
west end ami Shaft No.4, the work i> progressing
rapidly, of full tunnel size,and the welcome
shout of the operatives will soon herald to us,
the completion of this portion of the work.?
And then, we might reasonably suppose, the
doubts of the most skepti al would he rcntovi
An additional force is to be employed on
the tu'im-l, and with provisions plentiful and'
cheap, the contractors xvi'I ftu.l a<> great difficulty
in the way of a:i e.uly completion of
tiieir contract.
The masonry for the bridge over Chang.i
has been commenced by an expcri-uccd contractor,
and will be jm-bed forward energetic- '
ally.
For some time the engine has been running
from Anderson to ilie Twenty three Mile Creek
within a few miles of L'endlu'.oii. Upon the

of tiie Officers and Students of the Furmun University.
for tho year J857. The total number of Students
is 211, tiie largest nuinbor of which are from our
State.
Tho situation of this institution is delightful?in a
moral and intelligent community, where the Student is
not subjected to the multitudinous temptations and
evils that surround him iu the more populous and busy
world
The Rules of Discipline are most admirable, and
come up to our idea o'" the proper regulations and re
strain which should bo observed in all institutions of
learning where the young ate sent for moral and int?dlectual
culture.
We note with pleasure tho increasing in'ore-t and
progressive tendencies of the educational enterprises
of our day, prominent among which is the worthy and
excellent institution here referred to.

it is but a fair and legitimate conclusion to say that
these Associations are effective auxiliaries to the
Church?to the whole Church, irrespective of nam",
sect, or denominational limits. The Course being delivered
en the Bible is n nre opportunity to those who
arc permitted to enjoy them, of hearing divine iustruc* I

A VAi.fAm.ii Invention-.?Tlie Kalamazoo }
(Midi.) (i.azette states that .Mr. E. It. (tali <fj
thai city, has lecontly discovered u mode of'
applying lever power, which is destined to j
bring nhont an o.rtire revolution in the process j
ot raising large bodies b\* mechanical means, j
The editor of the t?az>*tte saw a weight of1510 ,
pounds raised hy his madiine, bv the strength
of a single coltuu tliread, and states that 'll' the
weight had b> en ton times as heavy, the result
would have been the sarii >. This discovery con
si.-ts in such an application of proper machinery
to heavy bodies, mjcIi as locodioiiws, heavy |
ca'tings, boats in dockyards, ami ti e like, a-|
to procure a balance in tli object il>elf, then ]
by rocking the body to and fro on certain stan j
(lards or studs, connected villi the machine, [
wedges are inserted with each vibration, >o tiiat J
as the rocking goes on, t lie wedges arc con
stantlv drawn in and the body raised b\ its own
motion. Mr. Bail's const ructionof machinery
for this purpose is very ingenious, very simple,
ami at the same time entirely efficacious; so
that one man can raise a locomotive that gets
thrown of the track with as mi eh e ise and rertMinty
as he could raise a bucket of water vvi.b
a windlass. So heavy pieces of ore may be raided,
canal b- uts, engines, and boilers, and in
short, anv compact and heavy body to which
the machine could be applied. The Gazette
concludes its ailieli* by saying: '"Wo think

we may saroiy siv in.ai nr. i? iu n.as mauu a
