In undertaking to conduct a public Press, a decent [ respect to common tisane, demands from the Editor a , few remarks in explanation of the course intended lo 1 bo pursued. It is true, that the freedom of the Press ! has advanced and contributed to almost every interest . ofthe human family; hut it is also true, Uint much evil ; has resulted Qotn its licentiousness.' And while the ■ philanthropist nv»y rejoice in the happiness conferred upon mankind, b ■ is also compelled to mourn the ?ad. and lamentable trn'h. th it, “.v'lere grud abounds evil much more abounds‘ To ascertain the true line of demarcation—the poiut at which the liberty of the press ends, and its ' lic-mtiouFnee* begins, is nerhsns impossible for the ! human mind; encumbered is it is with frailties and imperfections. Every intelligent beinc has established not.ons ol right and wrong; but so different are the impressions made on different minds by the same agen , tint it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to fin 1 two in dividcals posseusing precisely the same opinions, on any one abstract question. These nft ctions de nvmstrate the neeess : ty of expfeisine in •11 matters of controversy, as much ofch.tr ty and kind feeling, as can be attained.

Tin'sqiteßtion is nppronchbfg n crisis. The time ! lias arrive.l when every citizen of tl c South must pre pare for'he coming cm fl <t. As yet the attacks ot the enemies of our domestic iii.«-ittt-ion« have hern confired to mere skirm’shing compared "itfi v.bat is • )o follow What istoh. t] ic result the wisest < ann.a tell, while the most simple may n-asonahly tear ihe worst of conseqnem-es. Vl ili tt end in be.ng annual. . r.r i»kbatei> in the Legislative halls at W a tlmigim,? ! i>r will it be terminated by the deUruction of the L’ts tui.? If Southern cupidity be as craving and stubborn as it is represented by the Ahdttiuii presses, surely they cannot <■ xpc.-i to overcome it by Noti ntEKN Moitxt. ITT- It while the;- ui,ail us wth abuse in terms which an ane-ent Round!), nd would c. i.saler harsh, nn.l use evvrr exertion t*» raise up assass.ns in every bed room in the South, they expect to g j . prosolvtes to their doctrine among us, we are not only mis'.akin tn the human chars.-ter mu'-li mote tlim we believed, —but still more s>> in our opirti.-ns of tl.e nature and perseverme cunning of the Yankee. Docs any s. risi ble man believe for a moment, thtii the ledders of the Aboliifon faction entertain 'he slightest hope or ex tending their prim iplcs, or rather their notions among the citizens of the .South? They know that ( very in. teierl we have is opposed to them.—The princtplrr instilled into us from our cradles arc opposed to them, and the settled nn ! firmly established convictions o mature years have settled us in this opposition. »v hat then can tie tl.e mean* bv which they expect to abolish slavery? The result is, jf we cannot be convinced ! (w hich they do not exjiect) we must be forced—the ties between the master and the slave inns: lie sever, sd by the sword, nnd the crimes of the South expiated by the slie-ddmg of her best blood. Is it possible that fant.tac.jm can co blind the per reprion of men. otherwise intelligent, nnd c< nceaf from their view the universal sentiment and determin ation ol tiie « hole South? We are fearful that their is «. me deep political design at the bottom. 'Hie time rtasbeen w hen abo.'j'i. n found no advocates in the Le gislati.re <>f the c-uniry (’an we be oonsidered «x. travagant in coi'j-cttiring, that lhe wild and ungovern, ed let-1 rigs of tiie Abolitionists, are now if.e tools of those pol.ttcians who defend and uphold th» m for the purpose of gaining some ttn( ortnnt ulterior point? The Abolition of Slavery in the District of Colum bia, is but the entering wet Le. The people of the North have long since regarded with jealousy the growth and rapid extension of our South and South- VX eftern frontiers: Hence, their objections to the admission of new States into the Union, on'y on a cot:- d.tion wh;ch they know will never be complied with. Tiiey are anxious to keep extensive Territories, with population tuScicn: to entitle them to aJmtsston, un. d« f oTiiiriafy usage, dependent upon the Geriaraf Gog ernment, and thuslimitour political influence and ex hnd their oitn* These are lirb flv, ohr suggestions as tothepolhiwl designs of the abolitionists, ami those who defendant! uphold them. We believe them lobe reasonable: for; if tho object we have hinted at be attaided be Uierni it J| iis clear that the South nnd South West will be cutri ' pletely in the power of her sectional foes—she will be imprisoned by her enemies in bonds, which to burst will probably cause her own destruction, anil involvd ! the who’e country in misfortunes, from the contempiu* ’ton of which every patriot must turn with sad fore bodings aS to the fate of his countrj. It is a subject of i w hich every citizen of the South mist be informed* for, sooner or later the question will be directly prosen* ted to them, and every tie —every interest, which con. ! itects them with Southern soil, will demand from thetri the vindication of Sou.hern rights, _ ' 1 TI-w Lcgis'c-liira of Alabama- i This body adj >urncd on the 25di of December. A j fhnng the most important < nactrnents during the ses sion in ro be found an Act appointing a Burd of j Commissioners to irnpreve the Nuvitzation of Coos a jRi ver, and appropriating .$3b,009 for that purpose.- i Also, an Act authorh'mg '-ffmited partnerships.

We earnest!y invite the attention of the reader to the j address of Capt. Bineham, Cheif Eneincer to the We ■ tumpka and Coosa Rail Road Company, directed t.r the Legislature of Alabama. It is hardly necessary >to say that the subject is one of vital imprest to the ’■itizensof :his secion of the ffotmtry. The r.-mtrrlv-a --; of Capt Bingham arc mainly confined to the practica bility of constructing a Rail Road fron Wetmnpka to> ; Fort Williams, at the bead of the Fails of ibeCo-.si, ; and the character ofthe obstructions to the n-nvigi ! tion of that River from thence to this place. A i observations only, being dedte it:''! to show the Itene j fits to be derived from the content, ' n ted work, wv ’ take the liberty of adding a lew txinatu. . ■ Anv <>ne who will trouble himselft-. glance u.-er the : Man of Alabama AGeorgia particularly the Cht>rck e u. Conn'ty, will sen at once the importance to that see ’ io >, of securing a market in which th-’ products of ' 'nhottr can be diep.ts.-d of, and from which foreign sur. •t'ii» for home constimption can be obtained. Th« | who’e of flits pail of <mr Bta'c is sttpplird » ith Gro ' i -cries ns well ns Drv Goods Ir-.m th*' Atlantic ports;: ”d it is a matter well attested, that the fri.’ght on Irocerv arti. lee, such ns Sugar, Cots.-c, M 'lasses, 1 ’alt.

But it m-y be urged tha', even th,. lUMctiea'-ility ol n&v.g.-iting the Coosa, except that portion included in the Fulis-yet will not be It. qucnt loading and unloading, the commissions, <tc., of various kinds, materially tri ’-easo the cost "I the art'clt-s above tnent'oned? This ta cerminly rue: but, «e apprehend the iJ.ff'i-runce in distance will ; it least billative that ion. ; But there is another and very Important item, in the : cost of draining the article s alluded to, front tho übovo I mentioned places, by tl.e Atlantic Mer. hant It in the high rn'c ol Insurance—the consequence of tha dangerous navigation around the Capes of Florida* Western Keys and Bahama Banks. It our informa tion be correct, the rate ol Insurance on Goods shi[> pc-d from any point on the roust of the Gulf of Mexico and the principal Welt India Islanc'e, to any of the Atlantic ports, is almost, if not quite double the rate*, of Insurance from Liverpool to tl.e same places. These reflections have led ns to a resttit which mayv be regarded as extravagant. We have not, fiowever*. selected our village because we think it is the only place in the surrounding country which will be bene*, fitted by the construction ofthe projected work. A!-, though we believe its location a’ tho head of Coosa* gives it many and decided advantages, there are seve ral other places which will undoubted y derive greuk advantages from it. Our Paper. As yet we have had no returns from fhu«e | laces which we have sentour prospectus. We shall there* fore, d stnbute our paper as much ns possible to th® bci.i advantage.
