Mr. Brandt, of Richmond, had posed the motion to postpone. States debts. Dr. FeJton getting the floor, made his opening campaign speech for Governor against the sale of the road.

He, therefore, held the floor at the afternoon session, and continued his able defence of the State road as a valuable State institu tion. The fact is the Doctor has never confessed his ambition in this regard; nevertheless, I feel no great claim to prophecy when I foretell his candida cy. The force of his argument was that tne price named in the bill, #8,000,000, Southwest (jeorgia __ under tho extraordinary good price, Tor Governor Brown had fled under oath that the road worth #600,000 a year.
