MR McALLISTER’S RESOLUTIONS.
Just as our paper was g»ing to press last week,
the vote was taken upon Mr. McAllister’s teso

FOII THE STANDARD OF VNION. I
PUBLIC EDUCATION.!
I Learn that a proposition has been laid before i
the Legislature, to invest one half of the Sur- !
plus Revenue in some safe and judicious Bank, |
and apply the interest to the establishment and |
endowment of labor schools throughout the ,
State, for the education of the poor.
This is an idea worthy of the highest consid- i
oration; but it does not gsj fur enough. The
whole of this fund should be placed in the Ceti- '
tral Batik,subject to the immediate controril and ‘
supet ■> ision oi the Legislature, and the interest!
arising from it should ho appropriated to this I
great objei t. I would go farther. The pres
ent fund set apart for Academies and poor
' school.-, should be added to it, which would en
-1 able the State, Io dispose of something Ji.,e one
! hundred and twenty five thousand dollars per
W itli a thorough rev:-,ion of onr system of cd-!
I ucaiitm, in Hew years the beuolits of instruction |
' might he diffused throughout the Stale.
There is wisdom and philanthropy in this
I measure, and it seems to me, all others must
! yield to it.
By this cottr u, the greatest tnenber of peo
j pic will be beticbtten. The farmers can borrow
| the money fromthe Bank, at a moderate rate of
I interest, whi< li will diffuse knowledge,andexter.d
I the benefits of education to every portion of
I the Fiate.
Kail roads may facilitate cmtritTcial opera
-1 tion , but they neither iced tin hungry nor cn
i lijhlr n lhe lg'’e;--u-.
1 he. rich men have money enough to make
the rail roads, but none toeducat* the poor. The
State has not money enought* do both, hut she
has enough to educate the poor, and it is her
first, and highest duty, to help those who arc not
able to help tlieniselves.
PRO BONO PUBLICO.
EOR THE STANDARD OF UNION
THE SURPLUS REVENUE.
The disposition of the Surplus Revenue by the
, last Congress, is in my opinion, one of the boldest
steps tow ards a consolidated Government, w hich
has been taken since the adoption of the Federal
Constitution.
Although it be ar 9 U p On j ts t * Je formg of a '
constitutimml proceeding, yet it was intended by
its author to establish a principle ofm> less danger
ous tendency, than the right of the General Gov
ernment to raise revenue for the States, or in other
woids, to tax the people in the most odious and
oppressive forms, ami to draw from their pockets
the honest proceeds of their labor, to be returned
again to the States with a reduction of expanses
lor collection transmission Arc. &c., thereby rob
bing the people of their own money, for the pur
pose of subsiding the State Governments.
Under rhe specious name of deposite, Georgia
is about to receive some seventeen hundred thou
sand dollars, ami it becomes the province of the
present Legislature, to dispose of it, for the best i
interest of tho people. .
I he three prominent propositions which have j
been submit ted for Legislative eonsidera tion, are,
hirst, to place it in the Central Bank, to be loaned
out to the people.
Secondly, To invjst it in the construction of
Rail Roads, and
Thirdly, To .divide it among tho counties, ac-j
cording to population.
1 shfill take up these propositions in their order, !
and First,
THE CENTRAL BANK.
This institution w hich w as formed for the people,
and the only similar one from which they derive a
general benefit, is now to be run over ami trodden
down to make way for those gigantic monopolies |
which are rising up, with their “seven heads aud ■
ten horns.”
That iucthiuion, belonging exclusively to tiie '
people and annually examined and scrutinized liy j
their representatives, is denounced as impolitic tund
corrupt; charged with w ielding a dangerous in- ■
fluence over the principles and opinions of men :
—of shrouding itself in mystery and darkness,
and as a “lep'-os spot” upon our institutions; j
and while those denunciations are poured out, !
without measure, and without end, there are
some fifteen other Banks in Georgia, whose pro
ceedings never see the light—w ielding millions of
capital which speculators and Stockholders are
employing from day to day, and year to year, to
accumulate and incteasetheir gain, and no one j
breaths a suspicion against them. They may set, I
with closed doors—They may throw out the hen-1
S“st farmer or mechanic’s note for five hundcred '
dollars, and discount the wealthy speculators for ;
twenty thousand and no one complains.
I ask the honest laboring men es this conn tr'
where they would barrow three hundred or five htm '
dred dollars at six per cent interest w hen they need I
it, ifthe Gentral Bank was broken up; I answer, no
where. They would get it of the shavers at twen
ty or twenty-five percent, and this will bo the
consequence of destroying the Central Bank.
Jv isxrov-tirac every man who wants money trom
the Central Bank, cannot he accommodated—i
and why.? Because it has not the means. The I
capital has been too small, but now that the State j
lias it in her power to more than double the capi- I
tai, every nerve is strained to give ita different di- I
rection—to throw it into the hands of nmnopofists
and speculators, and in the end, ‘-to make the
rich richer and the poor pooler.”
This money belongs to tho people—it came
trom theii packets, and should be placed where
the largest number can enjoy its be nofits, aud
there is no mode in which this object can be ac
complished, hut thorugh the agency oft he Central
Bank. II it goes into the hands of Rail Road
companies its w hole profits and advantages will be |
enjoyed by a few hundred men, while if it goes!
into the Central Bank, its use and benefit will be I
diffused, among thousands and thousands of ch- j
i/.cns.
Let it go into the Bank,—let the interest lie re
duced to five per cent, mn let the workingmen
ol the country have the use of it, aud even at that
low rate, it w ill bring a large revenue to the State,
and relieve us entirely from a State tax.
Itissaid, the amount coming to Georgia in 1837,
will be upwards of seventeen hundred thousand
dollars—five per cent interest upon that sum will
amount to eighty-five thousand dollars which ad
ed to the interest of the present capital, would en
able the bank to pay over annually to the State,
a dividend of at least, one hundred aud thiity
thousand dollars.
1 lie good sense of the people, cannot and will
not be misled upon the subject, and if their rights
are not duly regarded in this behalf, their voices
will be heard in tones of thunder.
1 am for blinking no question—l imoke the
legislature to examine the Bank—to sift it in all iti:
ramifications, and il e* ils exist to purge them out,
; ami make it what is was intended to be, tho insti
tution of the people.
I here is anothei reason why the State should
I foster and strengthen this institution—it was not
, intended, as ah other Banks are, to he a groat
; money making machine—lt cannot issue bills
| beyond its ability to meet them —lt must have
, always in its vaults, the cash to meet every
dollar it circulates. It cannot issue twice or three
i times the amount, of ils capital, and thereby ex-
I poseitseh to he run dow nor ‘uined. The spirit
I ol speculatiqn does not enter into ils constitution ;
and hence it is, that its character never fluctuates. ■
J and its credit is never suspicious. Its billswill do ’
to keep, and are now mainly sought after by men I
who have money to lay up, as the soundest ami |
j safest the country affords, and why it is that a '
spirit of hostility should exist against it, I am at a j
loss to conceive. But as “there is nothing new ’
undci the sun, it must pass as an ordinary event
in the course tis human affairs; resting tho issue
j upon the great democratic principle ofthe apostle
of American liberty, that error of opinion may be
safely tolerated, while reason is lcftfr.ec to combat I
I i’“ |
| Setcxdly,
OF RAIL Ro \DS.
I am opposed to every species efli gi.-lation which j
etifranchises one portion of the people, and dis
fram hi-t , another.- In plain english. I abhor that '
soil ol l' r isiation w hich gives to one, the privilege
ol using his money or bi., property, in any manner,
to the exclusion ol others. It is unjust—unequal—
! anti republican, and 'unconstitutional.
Ly tne Decimation of American Independence
[that great charter of liberty, we learn, that “al;
i nun are born equal,” and that system of legislation
which increases tho rights of one, while it dimin
ishes or destroys those of another, is w holly repi g
pliant to t!:e gen'tts and spii it of our free institution.-.
THE STAN 111 KU OF UNION.
■ It is time for American statesmen to look this
subject in the face, and to decide at once, whothcr
they will build up a groat aristocracy in the coun
try, by concentrating tho rights ot the innay, in
the hands of the few : whothor the spiiit of monop
ly is to outrun the spirit of democracy, and the
great mass of the people to become “hewers ot
wood aud drawers of watei.”
Aie the people apprised of tho strides which
have been already taken ? Do they know that with
in the last four years, tliomands aud tens of thou
sands have been deprived of great and important
rights—have been actually cut off’ from the use of
their ow n resources, to swell and fatten, aud pam
| per a privileged few !
| In some quartets, the scales are falling from their
eyes, and it w ill not be long, before one general
hurstof indignation will ring from one end of Ge
orgia to the otlici.
In proof of these premises I will take for exam
ple, the charter of the Georgia Rail Road from
Augusta to Athens. By one provision ofihatehar
ter, every citizen, and the state itself, is prohibited
from running a Rail road witl in twenty miles on
either side of the one incorporated, under heavy
penalities. 51ore then is an area of our popti
lous country, one hundred miles in length, and
forty in breadth, within which a great and extraor
, diuary privilege is expressly given to a comptmy
comprising a few hundred mi n, while tho thous
-1 ands of citizens w ithin the same bouudai ies are
as expressly excluded from using and enjoying die
same privilege. If this is just legislation—if it is
carrying out tLs principles of republican liberty,
then have I studied the constitution of my country
in vain. I will suppose a case—aud one pioba
ble to happen—ls an individual in twenty miles of
the Georgia Rail Road, and within tenor twenty
miles of Augusta, should discover a valuable quar
ry,or deposite of mineral,upon bistnvuland, w hich
iftrauspoitcd to that city would produce great
profits, and he should-find the capital to construct
a Rail Road for his own benefit, could ho do so
while the present charter exists? No. lie must
eithet pay to tho company a high premium, for I
the privilege of using his own property to advan
tage— Sell that property to the company at their
own price, or fold up his arms, leaving his gran
ite on his mineral to sleep in the quarry.
“I hold this truth to he self evident,” that cue
man has as ‘much right to build a Rail Road, a
Bridge, of-.a Steamboat, aud to use them upon his
own premises, and'for Iris owu benefit, as another,
and every law which attempts to deprive him of
such rights, or to give to one, what it denies to an
other, is an open ’Violation of the fundament:!]
principles of our government.
I contend upon principle, that there isas much'
reason, and as much justice in giving exclusive i
privileges to planters, to merchants, and tavern
keepers or mechanics, as to Rail Road Companies 1
or any other associati on of men ; and if the legis
lature should pass an act, that only twenty individ- !
mils of Baldwin county should raise Cotton, and [
that there should be only one mercantile establish ;
ment—one “house of entertainment, and cne
mechanic in the town of Milledgeville, it would i
stand upon the precise footing of ihe Rail Road i
charters, and could be as abl y and amply defend- ]
cd upon the of score of principle.
Ihe view which 1 take of public improvements ,
is this.—l would incorporate carnpanics to con
••tract Rail Roads or other pnplic works, whate
ver they please, provided they could raise the funds
and obtain from the citizens the right of passiim '
through their lands, but 1 wN,.,j,[ CJ , wp} .] in;i „
to yield up his property againrt his w ill! nor would i
I prohibit any citizen or association, from the ’
same privilege.
These are my opinions upon this subject, and
1 venture the assertion, that in less than five years,
they will be the opinios.s of nineteen twentieths
of the people.of Georgia.
1 may be called by some, the enemy of internal '
improvements, but it is not so. lam their friend, '
but I would leave to every citizen, an equal par
ticipation in their advantages.—
Our country went to war some years ago for
“FREE TRADE AND SATLORS RIGHTS,” and 1 hope
the principle will be sternly adheared to, by the
legislature of Georgia..
As a legislator, I would never connect ths
State with individuals in any such enterprizes.
There is individual capital enough and letthepeo- I
pie do rhe work aml-enjoy the profits.
DIVISION AMONG THE COUNTiES. I
To this mode of distribution:there exists one i
insuperable objection to my mind, w hich applies I
with equal force to the hazardous enterprize of in- 1
vesting it in the construction of Rail Roads
It is, that the money does not belong to the state, ■
but is placed in her coffers as a m 're deposite; for (
if the State receives it at all. it must I e tr< n l) 1
conditions of the act of Congress, which requires ‘
jhe States to refund it w henever it shall be I
called for by the General Government; and should j
it be distributed to the comities they w ill take it I
as a donation, aud he placed under no obligation
to refund it, ano if invested in Rail Roads it will
he “like bread east upon the waters” which mai/ not
be found after many days, but like stones castinto-1
the waters, never to be seen again. But were I I
called on to decide between those two proposi i
tians, I should not hesitate a inomeut. I wonk’
give it to the counties in preference Io the Rai
Roail, because I consider it the most just and the
most equid
