Mr. Eli Carter was called to the chair, and 0. T. Vininjj,- Esq., chosen Secretary. . The chairman stated the object of the meeting to lo to devise means . forjpecaring the route of tho East-aide Kail- road through this city, and otherwise aiding anl: encouraging the enterprise. Messrs. II. Cranor Jas. II. Foster, John Conner ani'Dr. Alexander were severally called up on aml'eiprcsscd their views with regard to the matter ; after which, on motion of Dr. a Alexander, a Committee consisting of eleven of the citizens of Albany was appointed to all on iVe Officers and Directors of the East oide Iload, and ascertain whether they con- template rumnng the road throogh Albany, And what aid, if one, tey exr-eet the citi- . aens of Albany to contribute toward that "Following are the Committee: Dr. Alexander, Jas.

' f r.TTe were unable to ba at this meeting, Jwing to other and prior engagement but we understand it was conducted in the right Jsphitainil the remarks made by sundry cit izens were generally effective and to the poTiity It affords us pleasure to chronicle these farts,' a we regard them as omens of uccSith.tuiulcrtaking. -'Thre ts a"pint of vital importance rela- til tirthdsrllailroad which we did not fully elucidate in our article of last week, and to -which we would now call ntteution. If the IV1 hall runrsix to tea miles eat of Al-bany,- as at present contemplated by the Company, it is hard to estimate the damage whi;;h .the property-holders of . Albany and "Vicinity will thereby sustain. A rival town will be laid out at some central point ; a de pot will be erected ; machine shops built ; and inducements held out to capitalists and CoiSers i go there and settle. A depot al ways creates more or les business ; business men are aware of this fact and they will act Accordingly. As this rival town grows, and -trado increases, and the ca-stern portion of the county augments in wealth and popula tion,' a movement will be inaugurated which 'will oltimately result in the removal of the county scat from Albany to this rival town aforesaid.- There is already a latent feeling the minds of those living at a distance from Albany that it would be far better if the county seat were more centrally located. Some persons having - business with our courts, or some of our county officers, are compelled to travel twenty or thirty miles ; f coarse all such would favor its removal. As time progresses this number will be es- k nentudly increased ; and it is sheer folly to hut .our . eyes to the fact that they will lanior. for a change. Some say, let the Rail road run where it pleases Albany has such aratart, and being on the river, the ifailroad can net injure it much even if it should run east of us and build up a rival town. We implore all friends of Albany not to "lay lili 2 AEexTng-UQCtion to their suW A IXallroadtrapning east of this lace, will not only injure it; it will do worse it will kill it. Eailroads affect the business relations of ie -cc tiJcTcbuntry.' They make citiea-and tky kill them, and -they do it quickly. iifj jwipple the trade and commerce of large rivers and expensive canals. We recollect when the Ohio river was crowded with large anIlK agalSceai steamers', i eaeh 'filled - with freight and crowded with jraisengers. This wasi&frre'tue advent' of ' railroads. But oo the isccter is 'changed. The steamers running up and down the Ohio river are few, and baII and sickly looking compared with those of twenty years ago j . and. it, is ail& aosi of xailroadj- Ohio, Indiana and Illinois are .eat up and checkered over with railrosds, and they do the greater portion of the business of those States. "So it Ls every where, and so it will be here. "We expect bfbeVbB'In a few -months to go to Portland in thrtpjiourfeat dinner- thcre-ptransact our bnlihesVand return to Albany the "same day, 'When: that time shall come,does any body lilppose that we will wait and wait for a Joat, which is liable to get aground, and w'hieh in the best stage of water, is the eatd-part of two days in carrying us to Portland?"'--If they do they will be very much deceived. And what is true of us is f;ru9 q jdii The railroad, if it ahall run Albany,' will kill it.

Tho family of Mr. John Ambler, of Waterloo precinct, this county, almost miraculously escaped a terrible death from the falling of a tree dur ing a severe wind storm ono night last week. It seems that tho forco of tho wind had blown tho door of the houso ajar, and Mr. A. got up out of tho bed to close it; but find ing that ho was umablo to succeed in closing the door alone, ho called his wife to his as sistance and, just as she got to tho door a treo fell across the house, crashing tho roof and tho timbers which supported it entirely in, and, coming on down, was precipitated across tho pillows upon which but fi moment beforo had rested the heads of Mr. and Mr. Ambler. There was a young babe in tlio bed at the time- of the fulling of tha tree, but fortunately the little slumbercr was rest ing some distance down from the head of the bed, and thus escaped injury.. There weru several other children, lclonging to the fam ily, in tho house at the time, all of4 whom were more or less injured by' tho crushing in of the house, but none seriously. Mr. and Mrs. A were only slightly hurt. This may bo regarded as the most providential escape, in this section of country, on rec ord. ' '" ,: ' ' :" Lycel'm. On last Saturday evening -quite a number of our citizens convened at tho District School House, in this city, for tho purpose of taking the initiatory steps toward the organisation of a debating club to pass the long winter evenings in an interesting and beneficial manner."

Prating of virtue, they havo tnado it tho moat corrupt. Clamor ous for equal right?, they proscribe more people than any monarchy in Christen dom. . . Invoking freedom, they establish and maintain tho darkest despotism in eleven States.

Howling about purifying tho Government, they havo mado dishonesty and oflico-holding identical. Preaching principle, they subsist by passion and by prejudice Deploring caste, they elevate blacks abovo whites in one-third of tho country. Magnifying loyalty, they havo trampled out every worthy prinoiplo in our system. Claiming statesmanship, their officials aro cither conspirators or thieves.

Insisting upon peace, they pro long the old war and strive to stir up a new ono.
