State Rond Committee.
This Committee has been for some
days past ougaged in ascertaining tbe
amount of money due by parties to the
State Hoad. It has already made out ac
counts and issued orders for the collec
tion of $38,562. It is said that some
who had presents of railroad material, and
of car loads of supplies, and of freights
on goods, squirm considerably when call
ed upon to pay up. Some say they
have all the time been ready to puy,
and liavo wondered why the ac
counts were not pre-viously presented;
while others look upon it as uprooting
convenient arrangements made at the
time, which they doubtless then enjoyed
mnch moio than they will now, the
pleasure of paying the money. When
people are compelled to pay out mouoy
which they never expected to pay, it
hurts ; and when they tuke or accept of
that which they do not expect over to
pay for, they frequently help themselves
moro liberally than they otherwise
would.
The Committee is working faithfully,
and, wo hear, isuuearthiuga vast amount
of rascality, which will one day l>o laid

Who Owns the Carteraville &
Van Wert Railroad'?
This is a question of significance and
importance which is now frequently
asked. Who are the legal and equitable
owners of the Road ?
Hon. John W. Wofford claims a por
tion of it by virtue of a purcliaso at Sher
iff’s sale. Henry Clews prevailed on Con
ley to seize it for liim, but Gov. Smith
favors doing only that which is right just
and lawful, and has rofuaod to continuoto
hold tho road which was so improperly
seized by Clews’ friend Conley. The
pretended stockholders of tho Road
(Clews being one of them) perhaps think
they own it, anil perhaps they may hold
it, if they succeed in “injuncting” it out
of Mr. Wofford’s hands, and perhaps not.
Tho opinion is strongly entertained by
several intelligent men, that the Road
legally and properly belongs to the
original corporators—those named in tho
charter and their associates. These orig
inal corporators subscribed some forty or
fifty thousand dollars, and met to or
ganize under tho churter. At that meet
ing, Moj. Mark A. Cooper was present,
and when invitations were givon to sub
scribe for stock, ho at ono stroke took
Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dol
lars of it—being nearly all that remained
of tho $300,000 named in tho charter.
This secured him the Presidency of the
Road. While he was filling that office
the bonds ot tho entire road were issued,
indorsed by Bullock and sold, in flagrant
violation of law, as our readers know.
The Road lias been entirely built by
tho money raised by snlo or pledge of
tho State indorsed bonds, os very little
was ever paid by the Stockholders.
When the bulk of the Mtock was taken
by Maj. Cooper, and the Hoad virtually
passed oub of the hands of those whojfirst
got up the enterprise and procured the
charter, there was very serious objection
by the corporators, and they were dually
quieted, and allowed tho matter to pass
into tho hands of the Philistines upon
tho express condition that the Road
should be built, und the terms of tho
charter faithfully complied with. This
was pledged and faithfully promised by
Maj. Cooper—so wo arc told—but the
crowd ho was then working for and co
operating with, have failed to comply
with this pledge. Having failed to fulfill
their promises, the Road is tho property
of tho original corporators, and should
revert to them.
Such wo aro informed are tho facts, and
tho opinions*of somo of our best lawyers
aud other citizens.

During the present jresr a President
and membere of Congress are to be
olected.
Liberty must be preserved or lost The
Corrnptiunists of tbe day—the Bond
Rings—tho ambitions enemies of free
government - - are artfully, persistently
K ring the way to the overthrow of the
derul Republic, founded by Washing-
Ion, Jefferson end Madison, and the ee-
tablishmeut of a Centralised Empire end
« Dynasty in its stead.
THE PEOPLE can prevent this if
thoy will. They can retain their free
dom, or they can beoome slaves. The
destiny of this oonntry is to be decoded
by the peopk't tuila!
If the Democratic party will bat stand
firmly upon its time-honored platform,
and creel the standard of Llbxbty, and
honesty in the administration of the gov
ernment, a glorious triumph will be
achieved. Victory is within onr grasp.
The enemy is giving way—is receding
from his otter disregard of law and con
stitutional guaranties. Now is the time
for u vigorous charge upon his wavering
lines.
The Bon, has been sowing tbs geed
seed of truth. It has already brought
forth good trait. We ahull continue U>
aow the heed, and ahall expect a rich
harvest to bo reaped in tbe trinmph of
honest principles in tire next election.
We trust our patrons will aid us in ex
tending the circulation of Tax Son. We
have.entered upon ourenterpriae.to assist
in thegreatworx of redeeming the country
from tneoontrol of robbers, tyrants ana
money-ohaogers, who aro infesting the
temple of Liberty. Their tables must be
overturned and pnblio opinion most
scourge them from the pnblio presence.
We ahull give all tbe newB from the
State Capital—proceedings of the Legis
lature—decisions of the Supreme Court,
and all important news and events con
nected with the State Government; and
ahall endeavor to make Tun Son a welcome
family visitor.
Hon, Alexander H. 'Stephens, the
Editor-in-chief, has specially arranged
his business so os to devote almost his
entire time to the political department of
Thr Son, daring the ooming spring and
summer, and to the end ot the Presiden
tial election.
We give the proceedings ot the Legis
lature when in session, the decisions of
the Snpromo Court in fall, and all news
of interest connected with the State Gov
ernment.
