large crowd OF visitors was in at
tendance. Governor Marshall dc
livered bis annual Message. He
recommends that FIVE hundred acres
of internal improvement land be ap.
propriated to pay old railroad bonds.
Ht says there has been reason to

would be melted to war, endangering
the settlements on the American side
of the line. and be has communicated
with the General Government aud
military authorities on the subject.
The recognized funded debt Of the
State is s350,000.

Governor Austin delivered his in
augural address. The Governor says !:
On January LIST, 1867, there were only
3l5 miles Of railroad in the State,
now there are 7S3 miles completed.
He recommends that 500, 900 acres of
the internal improvement lands be
used to liQuidafc the old railroad
bonds, but if this is not done, that an
amendment 10 the Constitution be
eubmitted 10 the people, providing
that lands be disposed Of for 10 pur.
pose without q direct vote OF the

State holds stocks aud bonds cn
which dividends aud interest were re-
ceived to the amount of 81, ,228 Alb p,
leaving actual debt Of S5, ,464 525 "a.
The message opposes mixed schools,
but suggests that the tax received
from colored tax papers for school
purposes be devoted to the education
of colored children, and that educa-
tional facilities be extended to them
by the State. The message is of
great length, aod confined principally
to State matters. La discussing the

the improved condition -oc public
affairs. and the good feeling existing
between the people Of both rapes. IL
takes a cheerful view Of the political
situation. and speaks Of The general
prosperity IF the State. After a re-
sumo OF the material wealth OF the
State, the Governor says there is no
need, 50 far as her abilityis concern
ed, that her bonds shoad sell for less
than their par value. he says that
credit does not depeRd alone upon
upon the solYeney OF tue party whose
securities are upon the market, or
upon the snfleichey of the arrange
ments 70 pay The principal aud inter-
est as they accrue. Both must be
provided for amply in amount and
surety in method. A wise use Of the
State credit sustained by faithful off
GERS, Is all that is necessary Ia the
present premises. He attributes the
condition of the bonds TO deprive the
legislation and the nal administra-
tion Of the Auditor OF Public Ac-
counts. On the subject OF levees he
advises the co operation Of the States
of Arkansas, Mississippi aud LOuisi-
ana, and the General Government for
the assessment Of special taxes for
levee purposes. and favors the en-
couragement OF the great works Of
internal improvement, public ednca-
ton and immigration. He believes
the New Orleans, Mobile & Chatta-

Canal will be completed at an early
day. and recommends the immediate

city. so that the farmer can. in all
seasons, bring his produce into mar

state Of things with the present. Now
the farmer is almost entirely cut OF

Let every farmer take these things into
considerations. make his own figures,
compare the cost, trouble and ineOn-
veuienee Of bad roads with the cost
and convenience Of good roads, and
[ believe every one viii decide in
favor of constructing roads as speed
lily as possible. The city Of Evans

county, and therefore. her citizens
are proportionate.y interested in good
roads from the country. In place of
having 10 the Winter season to pay
exhorbitant and famine prices for
wood, hay, corn and all other country
produce. notion account of the scare
ity Of the commodities, but only on
account of the expense, risk and
trouble incurred by the farmer In
bringing them to town. Good roads
would make all easy, insure at all
times a plentiful supply, and conse-
quepily reduce the cost many times
more than the additional tax required
to pay. for the making of good roads.
In view Of the above self-evIdcut
facts, would offer few suggestions
for the candid and serious considera-
tion Of all concerned. First, That
good. roads having now become an
abs0lu e necessity to the residents of
both city and co0afTy. that the said
roads be constructed as rapidly as
can be. without too greatly burdening
the people, though can conceive of
no greater burden than the present
condition of the roads. Secondly,
That our Representatives. t0the State
Legislature be instructed to use their

of an act abolishin9 the old and in-
efficient plan Of working the roads as
heretofore practiced, and authorizing
the levying ofta special tax en- the
lines of the roads proposed to be con-
StTucted.
Our county furnishes abundance of
good road making material; yet, l
regret to say that we are sadly be-
hind the time, and, indeed, | believe
that on comparison, our county would
make far poorer showing with 70,
gard to roads, considering the inter
ests involved, than any other county
10 the State. During the Winter
there is no opportunity of improving
the present condition of the roads,
and therefore l respectfully urge all
| persons to give the matter the careful
consideration it deserves, aud be pre-
pared in tho coming Spring to decide
whether they will contieue to submit
to the present miserably inefficient
mode oil keeping the old mud roads

roads, and consequently better and
more ereditable state Of affairs gen
