The editor of this well known and able Demo-

«'nbers to pay tiicir dues, alleging that unless some
lurfion <’f llie heavy amounts due liim were soon

arisen entirely from that want of system, whi

In regard io the policy of these measures, it is .use
less now to criminate or recriminate. That which
is now necessary to be done, is to preserve the hon
or and secure the interest of the State, anil tfiis will
require the best exertions o! the intelligence and
patriotism of the country. By legislation, the Cen
tra Bank has been deprived of its capital and re
sour es. so far as to woolly incapacitate it to dis
charge the duties for which it was originally estab
lished. The capital of the Bank has been exhaust
ed upon the \X\ & A. R. Road, while many ot its
bids are outstanding and depreciated as a currency.
These bills are now a part of the public dent, and
ought to be redeemed as speedily as circumstances
will allow. As tio further appropriations made by

W E are making atrangements (the particulars
will he- announced at the opening cf the
Session) which wiH, vve think, secure the Madiso
nianif. more universal circulation. Our .incessant
labors, for the last twelve months have impaired
our health, and rendered occasional tfclaxaiion ab
solutely/ necessary. We haye therefore secured
the services of one of the best writers of the day,
who, as assistant editor, will devote his whole
time to the pacer.
We have secured correspondents in many of the
States, whose letters v,i;l keep- our readers con
stantly auvised of the political movements through
out the llpibn.
W e wilt give daily* a condensed report'of the
proceedings of both Houses of Congiess : and the
most important speeches wili be published at length

The official transactions of the Government will
be published in the Madisonian exclusively.

T HESE works have such wide circulation, and

in this prospectus to say that they- will bo cotuiu-

succinctly, their contents, the form in which they
will be printed, and the prices lor them.
1 lie Congressional Globe is made up of the daily
proceedings of the two Houses of Congress. The
speeches of the members are abridged, or conden

length. All the resolutions offered, or motions
made, aie given at length, in the mover's own
words; and the yeas and nays on all the important
questions, it is printed with small type—brevier
and nonpareil—on a double-royal sheet, in quano

Kail Itoad Report.
XX'e hive perused with some interest the annual
report of the Hon. XX’iison Lumpkin, disbursing
agent of the Western and Atlantic Rail Road, just
made to the S?!ate legislature, and would present
it to our readers, could we do so without omitting
other matters of interest. The report states the
disbursements on the road, from the 1st Jan. to
the 10th Oct. last, to have been $109,841 87;
w hich has been principally paid with 8-latc stocks
and drafts on the Central Bank. This amount, ad
ded to what was before expended, shows an aggre
gate expenditure of $2,728,405 52—a very snug
sum to pay interest pit annually.
Notwithstanding a very large sum has been ex
pended to make the limbers used in the construc
tion ol the road durable, by carrying them through
a process of immersion in various mixtures of sul
phates of iron and copper, the Agent thinks tiiat
scarcely any tiling has been added to their durabil
ity—and that so much has been entirely was cd.—'
IndeeJ, he pretty broadly intimates that the whole
work lias been carried on without much loreihought j
or economy, and hence concludes thaw such enter
prises had better be in the hands of individuals
than States—a consideration which we endeavored
to urge upon the Legislature, to prevent them from
engaging in this enterprise at first.
Gov. Lumpkin seems to be in favor of comple
ting the 52 miles determined on last winter, -and
the. - , stopping, at least for the present. We are
inclined to the opinion that it bad belter remain as
it is. until it shall be joined by ihe Monroe or
Georgia Rail Road, when it will be time enough to
determine how far it shall be pushed weslwardly.
We have not room for an extended notice, but
cannot on.it to copy tiie following extract from the
report, which though not confined to the subject of

done—it is a valuable public property. The inter-
tst, honor and prosperity of the State require that
its expenditures should be kept strictly'within its
and others.
