would remain good however much bank
bills might depreciate.
8CB-TREA8CUY SYSTEM.
I also beg leave to call the attention of
the General Assembly to the propriety of
establishing by law a system for our State
similar to the Sub-treasury system of the
United States, the wisdom of which has
been fully demonstrated by the beneficial
results of its practical operation. I earn
estly recommend the adoption of such a
system. Let all payments into the treas
ury, after a reasonable time to be fixed by
the Legislature, be made in gold and silv
er, and let the State pay the interest upon
her public debt, the salaries of her officers,
the per diem of her Legislators, the mon
ey due the several counties for school pur
poses, together with all her other liabili
ties, in gold and silver. Of course the
system should go into operation gradual
ly. This, connection with the prohibition
of the circulation of small hills, would
among the people a large amount of coin,
placing the currency upon a much more
solid specie basis, making the people more
independent of banks, and enabling them
to withstand the shock with much less in
jury in case of a commercial crisis and
bank suspension. It is believed that no
serious inconvenience could result to the
tax payer from such a law, as the gold
and silver paid into the Treasury by those
indebted to the State, would be returned
by the State in the paj’inent of her debts
due to her creditors, and would again go
into circulation among the people. Should
any inconvenience be apprehended in the
transportation of specie from the treasury
to the creditor, provision might be made
authorizing certificates of deposit to be is
sued, which might be paid to the creditor
at his request in place of coin. These cer
tificates of deposits might he of such denom
ination as the Legislature may prescribe,
handsomely engraved upon steel plates,
which plates should bo deposited in the
Treasury for safe keeping. Each certifi
cate might he signed by the Treasurer and
countersigned by the Secretary of State,
with the impression of the great seal of
the State stamped upon it, and a register
of the issue of each kept into the Treasu
ry to prevent counterfeit These certifi
cates might be made payable to the per
son to whom they first issued or to bearer.
They would supply the place of bank bills
so far as the conveniences of paper cur
rency are concerned, while they would be
subject to none of the fluctuations of val
ue and the uncertainties of bank bills.—
They would be taken at the option only
of the creditor in place of gold and silver.
The gold and silver, dollar for dollar,
would, when they were in circulation, re
main in the vaults of the Treasury to re
deem them when returned to it These
certificates, thus predicated upon coin in
the Treasury, dollar for dollar, would be
receivable in payment of taxes or of any
debt due the State. They would be a safe
medium of exchange, and would, to the
amount of their issue, be a paper curren
cy at all times convertible into gold and
silver upon presentation at the Treasury.
Each dollar of paper would have for its
basis a dollar of specie in the Treasury,—
and as the &ith of the State would be
pledged for their redemption, it would be
impossible for any citizen to sustain loss
upon them. They would be a currency
at all times and under all circumstances
of uniform par value. This would render
tile government of the State entirely in
dependent of all banks and bank agencies,
and would in a very great degree destroy
the power of the banks over the people,
while it would give the people gold and
silver change in all their small transac
tions, and a paper currency perfectly se
cure in many of their larger ones.
The suggestions made by the Secretary
of the Treasury of the United States, (Mr.
Cobb,) in his late report to Congress upon
tin subject of the establishment of a Sub-
Treasury system by the States, similar to
that of the United States, and the prohi-
most of the summer,) and all the rolling
stock is in good order. Repairs have also
been made at Alatoona, Petit’s Creek and
the TunneL
Since your last meeting one thousand
tons of new T iron have been purchased,
which has all been paid for since the first
day of January last This will lay about
eleven miles of the track with new, heavy
bar. Part of this iron has already been
laid down upon the track, and the remain
der, now being received, will soon be laid
down. Other new iron wilt be purchased
as fist as it is needed.
It is a matter of great importance that
the Road be kept in good order. For this
purpose it is proper that several miles of
the track at different places should be laid
with new iron every year ; otherwise the
iron on a large portion of the track might
wear out at the same time, requiring a
very heavy outlay to replace it I hold
that no administration, for the purpose of
paying money into the Treasury or other
wise, has a right to let the Road run down.
He who does it deserves to be condemned
—and I am willing that my administra
tion, so far as the management of the road
is concerned, shall be judged by this stan
dard.
According to the report of the Senate
Committee, the present Superintendent,
when he took charge of the Road, first
January last, was chargeable with assets
amounting to about $57,324.15, due from
connecting roads and solvent agents, With
a balance in the Treasury of $15,907.43.
And he paid, according to the report, from
1st January to 1st July, the sumof$157,-
773.23 to creditors of the Road, on ac
count of indebtedness contracted prior to
1st January, 1858, and had in the Treas
ury of the Road 1st July a balance of
$35,010.96. It will be seen therefore, that
the amount in the Treasury was much
smaller 1st January than it was 1st July;
and that the amount of debt contracted
by former administrations of the Road,
and paid by the piesent Superintendent,
from 1st January to 1st July, 1858, was
$100,449.08 larger than the amount of
solvent assets turned over to him. The
present Superintendent would seem, there
fore, to he entitled to this sum, paid out
of his net —mings as a cash credit. In
this sum is included the price of 400 tons
of the new iron above mentioned, which
was ordered by the former Superintendent
prior to 1st January last, and has been
paid for and laid down by the present Su
perintendent since that time; who has
also, through the Treasurer of the Road,
paid into the State Treasury, commencing
with the month of March last, $200,000.
Of this sum $175,000 had been paid in at
the date of his report of 30th September,
and $2S;0OO since that tinie for the month
of October. The current expenses of the
Road have been paid,
permitted to accumulate which are not
Road and paying all debts owing by the
Road on contracts made since that time.
I would bind myself that the present price
of freights should at no time be increased,
if such increase would make the freights
higher than the average price charged for
freights by the other roads in Georgia;—
and I would pay into the Treasury of the
State $25,000 per month for the use of the
road, its equipments and appurtenances,
to be paid monthly in cash or in the bonds
of the State, or in the bonds which now
constitute the funded debt of the Road;
for tiie payment of which, the faith of the
State has been pledged for years. And
every time a payment should be delayed
twenty-five days after it was due, I would
forfeit and pay to the State $10,000 for the
delay. This would be $300,000 per an
num principal, besides interest And a
term of ten years at these rates, counting
simple interest at seven per cent per an
num on each monthly payment from the
time it was paid into the Treasury till the
end of the lease, would yield the sum of
$4,041,250, for the use of the Road for
that time. -
Regarding the questions as settled,
therefore, that the Road, with proper man
agement, will pay into the Treasury $25,-
000 per month, or three hundred thousand
dollars annually clear of all expenses and
repairs, the inquiry naturally arises, what
disposition shall be made of the money ?

by those who have attempted heretofore

SCHOOL SYSTEM.
The public debt of the State amount*,
at present, to $2,630,400, payable at dif
ferent times during the next twenty years.
A large portion of the debt has been con
tracted from time to time on account of
the State Road. This debt, it will he re
membered, is subject by legislation, al
ready had, to be increased $900,000, on
account of the State’s subscription for > ‘TjF’
a lack of funds and of competent teach
ers.
With the gradual increase of the fund
proposed, it is not doubted that the wis
dom of our State would, from time to
time, improve our present defective sys
tem till it would be so perfected as to af
ford the advantages of an education to all,
or nearly all, the children of the State.—
Let the teachers be paid by the State and
let every free white child in the State
have an equal right to attend and receive
instruction in the public Schools. Let it
be a Common School, not a Poor School
System. Let the children of the richest
and poorest parents in the State, meet in
the School-room on terms of perfect equal
ity of right Let there be no aristocracy
there but an aristocracy of color and of
conduct In other words, let eveiy free
white child in Georgia, whose conduct is
good, stand upon an equality of right with
any and every other one in the School
room. In this way the advantages of ed
ucation might be gradually diffused among
the people; and many of the noblest in
tellects in Georgia, now bedimmed by pov
erty and not developed for want of educa
tion, might be made to shine forth in all
their splendor, blessing both church and
State by their noble deeds.
Should $4,000,000 be insufficient to
raise, annually, the sum required, the
fund might be increased from the incomes
of the Road, to any amount necessary to
accomplish the object The interest on
this fund should be semi-annually distrib
uted equally, among the counties, in pro
portion to the whole number of free white
children in each, between six and sixteen,
or of such other age as the Legislature
might designate. Authority should, also,
be left with each county to tax itselfj at
its own pleasure to increase the School
fund as at present And it should be left
to the Inferior Court, or School Commis
sioners of each county to lay off the coun
ty into such School Districts, as will be
mo6t convenient to its population, having
due regard to their number and condition.
