   Excitement here high. I Have just bought 225 casks of rice at 2 1/2 cts -- will ship it up the Central {(of Georgia)} Road ninety miles to morrow. Cotton is being shipped up the road. Suppose all will be sent off in a short time. Many merchants are exceedingly anxious to send off their goods wares & merchandize but the R. R. Managers refuse to ship for them. *****
