and the result was, that he was anxious for more.— A Ho would, therefore, suv at once, that he would be down lor a thousand dollars, and may be more.— 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.

Mr. Hall, an enJJ terpiisirig citizen of Jacksonville, subscribed $lO,- 000, and offers to build ten miles of the road for that eura. If the committee will only roll on the ball, Charleston will diminish considerably the balance necessary to complete the road.

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.” [ Western Recordrr.

Columbus, January 19—tw3t 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.
