1t has been repeatedly alleged by the friends of the
Lynchburg and Tennessee Rail Road that unless it wa.
constructed, the produce of considerable portion Of The
Southwest would find vent through Tennessee and
Georgia 10 Atlantic market. This is no longer
mere prediction it is already fact Col. Goodson, o.
Washington who passed through Lynchburg, last week
to take his seat in The House Of Delegates, stated that
gents Of merchants at Chattanooga had bought large
quantities of Whea! in his county, which was to be de-
vered at Papervle,a place the Holson river TWEEN
ty miles from Abingdon whence it would descend the
Holston and Tennes see to Chattanooga, and thence Be
carried by Rail Road TO Savannah Charleston A
fact like this speaks most eloquenily in behalf Of our
great enterprise.

THE ANTI-SLAVERY BUGLE

which advocates secession from pro-slavery

cations. 1t is Edited by BENJAMIN S. and J.

Feople the duty of holding "No union with
Shareholders" either in Church or State, as
the only consistent position an Abolltlonlst
can occupy, and as the best means for the de-
struction of slavery ii will, so far as its lin
lis permit, give a history Of The daily progress
of the anti-slavery cause-eXhibit tie policy
and practice Of Shareholders, and by facts and
ments endeavor TO increase the zeal aud
activity of every true lover of Freedom. In
addition TO its anti-slaveTy matter, II will
contain general news, choice extracts, moral
tales, &c. 1t is to be hoped that all the friends
of the Western Anti-Slavery Society-all the
advocates of the Disunion movement, will do
what they can 10 aid in the support of the
paper, by extending its circulation. You

ALABAMA CREDIT.-We learn from the Mobile
Register that the London Times lately made the
following remarks on the credit of the State Of
Alabama:
The public profession Of insolvency has not
yet been made. The Legislature meets next
month, and viii Immediately be called on to decide
whether it will acknowledge by increased taxation
the necessity of paying of its debt some time or
other. Meanwhile the people have already ex-
pressed themselves with their tlsualseuergy THE
candidates at the late elections were. exanined as
to their sentiments this all-imporJAat Peint
yVhichin Alabama Just stands for the six points
Of the Charter. They have responded to the popu-
/ lar feeling with more Of less heartiness. Some
have been an favor Of totalTepudiation others have
advocated composition for half the existing amount
of the debt while others again, propose to obtaiI
the result by reducing the rate OF interest L
4 half the present percentage. Honesty Is not
matter OF degree, and the difference between tota
repudatoTs and half repudiators is merely that thu
former IS the most honest knaveTy OF the two
| When Alabama once makes up its mind to poke
half the capital or half the interest due to the
creditor, and has resolved that the appropriation i,
| an act OF public Split and virtue it will not be
slow to discover that the same process of reason
ing applies to the other half In fact there can be
no principle without consistency The continued
! payment OF the remaining moiety would testify
with very unpleasant force against the act Of rep-
diation. On the Haxun that dead men tells nc
tales, it will be better to kill the debt at once and
put the creditors out OF their pain. Half measures
will thus lead to what may be called a teetotal
Reputation and we shall certainly call it a hall
measure If with rapidly increasing wealth and
population and, consequently with abundant means
to pay, the State Legislature should decide against
any increased taxation, and thus perPetuate the
annual deficit
On this passage the Register comments as
follows:
1T is in keeping with the usual insolence Of
tore manifested by that organ of British presump-
ton whenever it treats of subjects on this side oil
| the Atlantic: The State Of Alabama, unlike the
English Government, has always met its obliga.
tions with scrupulous good faith, nor will the gra-
tuitous ISLANDERS Of this gigantic bellor induce hel
to stain her escutcheon with the blight of repudia
ton. The grossness of the attack on the integrity
j of the State, is not more remarkable than the
/ ignorance displayed of every thing regarding, ou

one said nay and it is not improbable that Mr..
Clay will be Secretary OF State, being forced to
