Dee 12 11 tifcird with said subscription, -SKb. tl> 8 legislature enacted a law for the construction of a Rad-Road Irom some point near the Tennessee River, io, point on the south-eastern bank of the Chattahoochee Hirer. The said Rail-Road was distinguished in the act. br ibe name of the Western and Atlantic Rail-Road ; that ii'«im>«lion explaining the object of the state to connect the sruern waters with the Atlantic Coast. The south-eastern terminus was to be selected for its eligibility a* a place irom which branch roads could be extended to Athens, Madison. Milledgeville, Forsyth, and Columbus. The 10th jeciwn of the act, which engaged the state in tte enter- ter 'rise, was obviously adopted with the view to induce f ; u '. ( . n , of (be state to unite their effort* and their means vith those of the State, in creating the great work then in rsntemplstion. In fact, language more expresssive of such tn intent, could not have been nsed. It set* out with a de rivation that. f° r the encouragement of the construction of brmch Kail Roads from the terminus of the State Rail- ;;„,l,on the Chattahoochee, to the several towns of Athens, jhJiaon, Milledgeville, Forsyth, and Columbus; and, then proceeds to enact, that so soon as charters shall have been obtained for the construction of said branch Rail-Roads, or ,av of them, and one half of the stock shall have been sub- .crtbeJ for, in all. or either; it should be the duty of the liororior io subscribe, in the name of the state, for one fourth of the capital stock of such company or companies, provided said subscription did not exceed $200,000 to any one branch. A charter was granted to the Monroe Rail- Koml and Banking Company to construct a Rail-Road from the town of Forsyth to the south-eastern terminus of the State Hoad, the stock not to exceed •1,200,000. Subse quently the company was authorized to appropriate a part of this stock to the completion of the road below the town of Forsyth, which reduced the stock for the road between ForsMl'i and the slate road, to •8G0,000. The act of 1836 remirc i that the tracts of all branch roads, by that act con- tai.pls'ed. should correspond in width with that of‘the niiu trunk. At the time the subscription was applied for, mure than one half of said stock was subscribed for, and the re |aUite payments made thereon, to make said sub- irrij, :i i-aliil and binding to all intents and purposes, and pr n adduced that the subscriptions were bona fide, anJ responsible persons, and that the tract of the road to ■ ,.eh as was required by the act of the general assem- My. The investigation which your committee has made, ha- • ulted in no discovery of any matter of tiling calcula- irj impugn or throw a shade of suspicion upon the oaths oft;,- 'uglily respectable gentlemen jvho made the affidavit roj.u ■ i In’the Executive; and if their deposition be true, your ■ nmiitiee believe there is an end of all question as is ; - ,■ .igntion of the state to comply with it* engagement. Th- ioih section contains an additional proviso, that the cue -nail not be required tn pay any part of said subscrip ts until the whole capital stock oi any such company shall have been subscribed for. This proviso, your, committee l u I, has been fully complied with, and from the best evi dence they ran command, the names subscribed, will chal lenge a comparison with those of any similar company in t:.i» state or elsewhere, for their ability and means to pay. Upon an investigation of the payments which have been mule, yourcoinmittee are satisfied that a very latge portion ofihem has been made in par funds, and what is equivalent tn par funds, iron, Ac. for the use of die road, at customary prices; that those who paid the note* of the company, a urge majority, that i» subscriber* representing a large tna- jonty ofibe stock, which was paid for in these notes, re- reived them at par. Hut your committee, upon reference tn the act under which payment of the state's subscription is claimed, find nothing which authorizes the investigation of the payments made. If they have been fraudently or jlle- {•Uyinade. it is a proper auoject of judicial examination, am) if found tohave been so made, the subscribers should be required to make good their subscriptions. As before rematked, the enquiry of your committee terminates when it is ascertained that the subscriptions, entitling the com- j'tny to demand payment of the state, have been faitly and bona fide made by responsible persons, which is found to iie the case. The following facts are therefore found to exist: Is;. That the state engaged to take one fourth of the stock of any company which should obtain a charter for one of said roads, provided said fou-th did not exceed $200,000. 2d. That this engagement was made for the encourage- merit of citizens to take stock in said companies. 3d. That * charter waa granted to the Monroe Rail- Road Company to construct a Rail-Road from Forsyth to the state road. 4th. That more than one hklf of the stock of said company bad been subscribed for agreeably to the terms of the char ter, and thereupon an application was made to the Gover nor for the state's subscription, which, upon , the evidence submitted, he was not at liberty to refuse, without disre- garding the injunction of the law. 5tli. That a large portion of said-stock has been subscri bed for by responsible persons, and that every condition upon which the said company has the right to ask for the payment of said subscription has been complied with. Your committee are of the opinion that the state cannot now pause to diseuss the question of the expediency of the law in the first instance. That day ia past. lion of very favorable accounts from Liverpoql, the animation in our market has reached a high pitch, and prices have advanced fully S of a cent over our last week’s quotations. On yesterday, 8 cents was readily obtained for the article in square bales. We heard of none being sold under 74 cents. (J/*’ We are indebted to the courtesy of the Hon. A. H. Chappell, our Representative in Con gress, for an extra Madisonian, containing the President’s Message. We nope Mr C. will con tinue his courtesy. Tltjj bill lo establish a Court for the Correction of Errors, has passed the House. We learn, there was an alarm of fire, in the State House at Milledgeville on Saturday, which created no little confusion. The alarm arose, we understand, from ignition of the chimney, of the Ex ecutive office. The 28th Congtess organized on the 4th.—There was a pretty full attendance of members. J. W. Jones of Virginia was elected Speaker. On the 5th, the President’s Message was review ed and read in each House. This will be fouud at length in our columns—but we have no space for .com merits. Tire Monroe Rail-Road appropriation bill is to be taken up in the House of Representatives, we understand, this day. We are told there is little doubt of the passage of the bill by the Legislature. Should the Legislature make this appropriation at this time, it will insure the prompt completion of the Road, the grading of which to the terminus, is all but finished, most of the wooden superstruc ture furnished, and a large portion of it laid down —the purchase and laying down of the iron, being now the heaviest expense to incur, to fbrm.a junc tion with the State work. Had this appropriation been made by the last Legislative, the whole line would now have been in "successful operation, from Savannah to De- lvalb, together with the 33 miles of the State Road already finished,—which has been lying idle, subject to decay and wanton injury for nearly a year—and must remain idle, until the Monroe or Augusta Road reaches it. But let the Legisla ture pay its subscription, its hopest obligation to the Monroe Rail-Road, and the junction will soon be effected. Business on this Road, we learn, has increased very considerably since the completion of the Cen tral to Macon, and must continue to increase, as the former advances. The present upper termin us is at Griffin—but will be extended in a short time some 20 miles higher up. A new and splen did additional locomotive, of the largest size, ha9 been shipped at the North for this Road, and is daily expected. Grammar class, stand up.
