They set out with a list of seventeen default

Mr. Spuliock. These Agents owe in gross over
fifty-three thousand dollars—but the most of

J Advertising Supplement.
'In consequence of the pressure upon as from
the length of the Governor’s Message, we liave
been compelled to print part of our advertise
ments in a supplementary sheet Wc will re

lars to Franklin College (not University) atAth-
ens, and the further sum of Fifty Thousand
Dollars to each of the Denominational Colleges,
to wit: Emory, the Methodist; Mercer Univer
sity, the Baptist, and Oglethorpe University,
the Presbyterian, and tho like stun to tho Mili
tary Institute, at Marietta—making in all, the
modest sum of Four Hundred Thousand Dol
lars of the People’s money to lie appropriated to
Colleges.
Suppose this proposition as urged by the Gov-
tcrest on the amount claimed, at nearly seven
teen thousand dollars, which we judge is likely
to lie something more than will lie realized in
principal awl interest together. It was a loose
way of accounting with agents which could leave
a loop hole for off-setts, and tho claims, lie they
wliat they may. have never liccn pressed as they
ought to have liccn.
Next, the Committee take up malpractice and
mismanagement in the work upon the road. They
find that culvert work at Alatoona and Pettet’s
creek was let out by Cooper, Superintendent,
at $7 per perch, when other parties were anx-
emor, and with hot liaste endorsed by the Sen- ions for it at <4—and when it was actually sub-
atc, could lie submitted to a fair test before the let by the Contractor, at four dollars, and a gross
The message
Though very long, will be found more than
ustiaily interesting. It deals in no barren gen-

the customary long Jeremiad on Federal Rela

is taken up wholly with State matters and dis
courses npon these with such minuteness of de
tail as to put the reader in possession of all ma
terial facts.' Its suggestions, moreover, are unu
sually important. Those upon the subject of
Education in particular will arrest the attention
of t]ic whole State. The plan is grandand com
prehensive, and does him honor both in the

conception and proposition. This mar. andl fricnd rqdies-the people must be educatcd-
probablv will be the groat subject of theses- masses must be enlightened, awl the only
kion, and will doubtless call out contr itions
opinions. In the extent contemplated by the
message it will he an experiment merely; with
out premises upon which to base a satisfactory
judgment of results. Wo might be disposed to
question whether so purely a State system is
wall adapted to the condition of our people, and
whether the instrumentalities he suggests for
the procurement of teachers would be as effec
tive and useful as • Normal School, after the
pattern of those used for that purpose in the
Common School States; but wo wouid be dis
posed to hazard much and compromise a good
dual for so grand and patriotic an object. Any
rcheme must be a matter of experiment to a
great extent, as things stand.
The Governor’s views upon State aid are
sound and perhaps liberal enough—on the hanks
be is severe; but while it is, in point of fact,
improbable that the Legislature will carry out
any of las currency suggestions, those in regard
to a State Independent Treasury system and
the abolition of small bills are in our judgment
very judicious, and tho present a favorable time
to adopt them. Reforms in the currency, how
ever, are not to be broughtahout in flush times.
The stylo of tho Message is easy and dear,
rod throughout it displays a thorough, minute
way to do it is for tho State to make liberal gifts
in aid of the scheme from her overflowing cof
fers. We grant the premise, but deny the con
clusion. A thorough—perfect, and uniform
system is greatly to he desired—its importance
the document winds up with reports from the
Treasurer, Chief Engineer and Attorneys of
the Road The Treasurer, in aaswer to inqui
ries, estimates the total cost of the Road at
$5,901,407 53, of which amount $1,405,845 09
had been paid out of its earnings to October,
1857. In the five years including and succeed
ing 1853, it earned $3,531,247 88, and disbursed
can scarcely be over-estimated; but the people $4,185,684 56. It has paid into the State Treas-
raust begin the great work, and it would be fu
tile and fruitless for the State to expend large
amounts of money in building School Hoascs
and providing tenchers if parents refuse to send
their children to school. Our Legislators must
remember that the State cannot force learning
on the people—ilicv mast be convinced of its
necessity, awl the benefits to be derived from it,
and then they will not only organize schools,
but patronize them.
But say tho advocates of this grand Collegi
ate speculation, wc will educate teachers and
ury, in all, $385,500, some 143,000 of which
was paid to Die State while the Road itself was
paying jnterest on money borrowed from tho
Banks. The Committee find that the income
ofthc Road from 1st January to 1st July, 1858,
as compared with the same month last year is
$17,579 71 less, and the working expenses
$34,280 51 less, and that $93,000 00 netteam-
inga had liccn paid into the State Treasury
since the first of last January. The Engineer
has a doleful opinion of the location of the Road.
It Is in his judgment fifteen miles longer than it

teachers can always be supplied much easier I by the rail than the wagon Road and sometimes
than schools can be gotten up ? Let any neigh
borhood in Georgia advertise for a “ Professor”
(for unfortunately the race of good old time
school masters is defunct,) and how soon dozens
of applicants will lie on hand. The truth is wc
don’t want teacher’s—we don’t want Colleges,
by several miles. The Attorneys report on the
condition of a legion of suits which wc have no
time to enumerate.
