Railroad Movements.

ES Under this head the Dubuque
Express d Herald gives publicity to what
it calls new and startling proposition,
which is, that certain parties, connected
with the four Land Grant Railroad Com
panies Of this State, will shortly propose
to the State loan of State credit to the
said railroads, to the amount of four nil
lions Of dollars, to be used for the con-
structon of these roads, the companies
giving, AS security for the payment of the
money, the lands which they obtained
from Congress. The Express says:
at is even contemplated that an extra
session of the Legislature be called for
the purpose Of enacting law to lay the
question before the people. Should the
matter ever progress SO far rs to come be-
fore the people for their adoption or re-
lection, they will need to look well to its
tendencies and probable consequences.
"That our young and thriving State
should saddle upon herself a debt of four
millions of dollars for the benefit of four
particular railroads, is proposition of no
ordinary character. 1t is true, the Roads
propose to give their lands 10 the State
in lieu of the money. But if the lands
are not worth four millions 10 the roads,
will they be worth il to the State
"Should the State assume this amount
Of indebtedness, she will have to pay a
large bill Of interest annually, being, at
ten per cent, not less than four hundred
thousand dollars gear. This would be
heavy burden upon the taxpayers Of
the State, and we doubt not they would
seriously question what is proposed, for
an equivalent"

For the Quasqueton Guardian

Mr.. EDITOR Il will place at your dis
posal short account of the discussions
of the Anti Slavery Convention, recently
held in this town.
The moral and political aspects Of
Slavery were dwelt upon, in which the
rights and wrongs were put to the test
of reason and the word of GoD | can
only state from memory some of the
grounds taken and the conclusions reach
ed. 0ao ~
1t was argued that the principles Of
the Bible, carried to their consequences,
would destroy Slavery. That human
laws at war with the fundamental princi-
pes of morality, or the Bible, were not
laws, or were null and void.
That the law Of COP, which protects
man against man stealing with the pen
atty of death, is consonant with reason
and the law of the United States declar-
ing the Slave trade piracy, punishable
with death. That neither of the great
political parties were worthy the patron
age of anti-Slayery men, because they
do not aim at the abolition Of Slavery.
but merely to prevent its extension, and
because anti-Slavery men ought to put
themselves in position TO lend their in
fuence as christians, and as citizens, to
the entire abolition of Slavery.
1t was further argued that Ministers
of the Gospel and the Churches were
responsible for the existence and perpet-
uity of Slavery, inasmuch as that were
they to oppose their united influence to
Slavery, they would remove it from the
world.
There was an issue made OH the fol-
lowing " Resolved, That Slavery is not
a creature of law, but of might" One
set of speakers claimed Slavery to be a
creature Of law, and another class held
that it is not, but the creature Of might.
The most extended effort was concentra-
ted here. The positions of the first were
substantially as follows That the clause
Of the Constitution touching the migra
ton shall not be prohibited prior TO 1908,
DC, constituted law authorizing the
thirteen States, or any of them, to prose
cute the slave trade That the laws of
the States treated the Africans as slaves.
That Slavery had been practised from
time beyond the memory Of man. That
Roman law sustained it. That 900 years
in this country has sanctitied
it. That what the law makes property,
is property. That il could not stand be-
fore the law Of right and justice. That

WapsipinicOn Railroad.

We see by the Independence Civilian
that the Dubuque, st. Paul d st. Peters
R. r. Company have purchased that part
of the Wapsipinicon d st. Peters Valley
R. r. lying north of Independence, with
the intention of prosecuting the work
North this season. The CivRian recon-
mends that Buchanan County aid the
Company by loan of her credit. We
would suggest to them the propriety of
submitting at the same time loan for the
remaining portion of the Wapsie Road
We are convinced from the lay of the
country, that there must be southern
road, either by the way of Marion or An
amosa ; and as there is company already
organized for the construction of the
Wapsipinicon Road south from lndepen-
dence to Walton, that company should be
encouraged, and all the aid that can be
raised, either by private subscription or
loan should be given them Immediately,
so that they may commence operations at
any early day. We hope the citizens of
Anamosa, Rome and Upton will unitedly
call meeting, and make early arrange
ments for commencing work on the road.
--Anamosa Eureka
Rather poor authority for anything,
you will find, Mr.. Eureka, is the Indepen-
dence Cipilian, for it don't know enough
to tell the truth even if it desired to do so.
The Dubuque, St. Peters and st. Paul
Railroad Company hare not purchased
the Wapsipinicon Railroad Company's
route from Independence north, al
though such proposition has been made
by the former and entertained by the lat
ter company. We certainly think that
such an arrangement is desirable, as adj
vancing the interests of both companies,
and of the people along the full length
of the Wapsipinicon route The Du-
buque Company must find another start
ing point for their road than the city of
Dubuque, or else they will not be able to
progress with it for years TO come. Let
them start from Independence, and the
facilities for building the road are so great
that with their present subscription alone
they could build a large portion of it.
The people Of this and the northern
counties will take hold of the matter en-
Enthusiastically, and the work could un-
doubleday be pushed to an early compile
ton. While this was going forward, the
interests south of Independence would be
extending the line to Anamosa or some
point on the Iowa Central Road. Ofthis
there can be no doubt. The construction
of the road north from Independence, in
sures beyond peradyenturc its southern
extension, and no matter what may be
the result of the negotiations between the
two companies, it will have for its object.
on the part of the Wapsipinicon Compa-
ny, the carly completion Of their whole
road
