and the result was, that he was anxious for more.—
A Ho would, therefore, suv at once, that he would be

He moved the appointment of a committee, to wait
upon the other business men of the city, and lay
the matter before them. And accordingly Messrs.
Chafee, C. Kerrisaon, G. Cameron, were appointed
to this service. Several others present expressed
their determination to subscribe to the stock ;
amongst others, N. A Cohen, Esq., resolved to have
a: least, the worth of SSOJO. We understand that
more than half the amount necessary has already
been subscribed in East Florida. Mr. Hall, an enJJ
terpiisirig citizen of Jacksonville, subscribed $lO,-

Charleston will diminish considerably the balance
necessary to complete the road.

Mr. Editor ; 1 think the following too good to be
lost ; A staunch democrat in this neighborhood,
during the Mexican war, was called upon to pray at
A a regular church meeting, upon which he perpetra
ted the usual form upon such occasions, with this
addition: “Oh, Lord, be with our army in Mexi
co; whether it be right or wrong, bless it, We of
the democratic party are charged with making a war
for conquest ; but we believe it to be a war of de
fence. But, o!i, Lord, we would not enter into ar
gument of the subject before you, but for further
particulars would refer you to the President’s Mes
sage ”
This was brought to mind by hearing (lie same
brother before an association a few days since ,make
the following speech:
and wouid urge upon you, brethren the taking of
tii -Western Recorder,” turning to the delegation
fr; n a church in Tennessee—“and you, brethren,
oi :ht to take it too, as the interests of the Chuich
in Kentucky and Tennessee are very closely allied,
and will I ccome much more so upon the completion
of tiie Danville and McMinville Railroad, which, I
pray God, w ill not be long, as I have about fifteen
thousand dollars involved in that enterprise.”

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
CORNER STONE. .
} WE intend to publish in the city of Columbus, Ga., a paper
! under the title of “THE COKNER STONE/’
Me shall not attempt to foreshadow’ our future course,
by saying that we shall adhere to and advocate the “great
principles” of this or that “great party,” fWthe reason that
we know no party, to whose principles, as exemplified in
practice, we can thus commit ourselves.
W ith some difference of creeds and professions, the tw r o
great National parties agree in one leading object, which is
to do whatever may be necessary to increase the amount of
party spoils, which are gathered mainly from the South and
distributed almost entirely at the North. We do not belong
to either ofthem. “
Believing the General Government to be corrupt in all its
parts,-holding that it belongs to, and is and will be admin
istered for the benefit of the North alone—that it is an en
gme, by which, the power and resources of the South are
wielded to her injury—that in all respects and under all
circumstances, the political connection between the two
sections is productive of evil to the South, we shall advo
cate its dissolution.
As to State poli tics, if there be any party which ha3 anv,
wc are ignorant of it. So entirely is every thing absorbed,
m the effort to sustain a national organization, that the dis
cussion of principles and measure, involving the rights and
interests of the people, is often deprecated and avoided, lest
the party may be thereby injured ; as if the invasion of the
rights of a citizen, by State legislation were not as fatal and
as much to be guarded against, as the exercise of an undele
gated power by Congress.
In what we shall choose to consider and treat as State
politics, we shall find much to discuss—for there is much
that is wrong somewhere.
We boast that we have the best Government on earth,
and that we live in the full blaze of the light of Christianity,
yet vve have daily, the complaint, that over all the land,
crime and degradation, and misery are increasing, with ap
palling rapidity. Such are not the legitimate fruits oi a
pure Christianity or of a good and wise government.
We shall consider all things connected with the rights
and interest of the people, proper subjects for discussion;
our object will be to aim at the truth ; and when in our
opinion, we shall have found it, we shall present it to our
readers as it presents itself to us.
Terms. —“ The Corner Stone” will be published, Weekly
on a large sheet at $2 per annum invariably in advance.
No man wall be entered upon our list until the money is
paid. Any person who will send us five subscribers will
receive a copy lor his trouble. The first number will be
issued by or before the first day of February.
Our brethren of the Press who will give this Prospectus a
few insertions, will receive our thanks, and find us always
ready to reciprocate.
