and build the road through from st.
Louis to the Atlantic. All the ad-
vantages of the road were set forth
forcibly and the inevitable conclu-
sion was that the road was second in
importance to none. The Chairman
was authorized to appoint four per
sons in each county on the line ofroad
from Cairo to Huntsville, Alabama
to present the claims of this road to
their people. There is yet no regu-
larly organized company for this
route, but he is informed that GER
tain eminent railroad men are work
ing up a system of narr ow-gauge
roads for the South, which will soon
be completed and presented to the
public. The plan for building them
Is that each county will be required
to subscribe an amount sufficient to
grade them through their limits.
From the best information had he
believes Giles county will be requir-
ed to subscribe about $4,000 per mile
for each of her roads. The road built
aud equipped is estimated to cost
$4,000 per mile from st. Louis to
Huntsville. Columbia is earnestly
endeavoring to carry this road and
the NJ. & K. road through Maury,
and Fayetteville is working for the
same end, and also to get the Cumber-
land and Ohio to pass that way to-
Huntsville. thus making of herself
great railroad centre, and thus strip
Pulaski and Giles county of the great
ness they can attain by securing all
of these roads. The following is an
estimate of the length of each line
through Giles county, together with
probable cost of local work, to-wit !;
Ohio, Tennessee & Warrior River
Railroad, about 50 miles. cost $4,000
per mile, $4,000: Cumberland &
Ohio, about 80 miles. same cost, $3.50
600: Memphis & Knoxville, about %
miles same cost $4,000; total cost
of these roads in Giles county, $780,
900.
Col. Cox's report was adopted.

The Avalanche says that r. T. WILSON,
Mr.. MCGEHEE and Mr.. COLE, all OF
whom own bonds, were in favor OF fund
ing, and has a good deal to say about
that. If these gentlemen own State
bonds we see nothing wrong in their
working get them paid. A creditor has
no means of pressing the State to pay its
debts, by legal process, as he could an
individual, or private corporations ;
and, hence, we do not wonder that those
who have waited on the State for years
are anxious for a settlement. AS long as
they use fair and honorable means they
have perfect right to urge the State to
liquidate her debts.

A Memphis paper says, of course the
same rule which now funds the old issue
of Tennessee money with other State
liabilities, will fund the ne0 in like
manner. OF course it won't do anything
OF the sort unless, the Supreme Court
shall decide it just and valid debt, and
this we have no idea it will do. We do
not believe that the State Supreme
Court will so decide, and if does, that the
Supreme Court of the United States
will reverse it.
