at tlie option of the Hiwassee. company.

Ross Landing (distant htlccn miles from

the Hiwassee co. to connect their work at

is to cross the Tennessee at or near Cal

It opWrs that the project of tho General
Ticket System for Congress, in 'Alabama,
was first moved )n an official form, by Gov.
Bagby in his annual messege to the Legist
lature. Tbe views of His Excellency and 1
tho purity of his motives, on this point are
discussed with much freedom by theTus.1
ealoosa Monitor.' The credit of originating
th new schemetif Democracy is assigned
to the recent State Convention which as
sembled at Tuscaloosa. " In the absence
(says the Monitor) of other modes of com
munication, the Chief Magistrate of the
State, who .figured conspicuously . in' the
Convention, has become the medium thro1
which a voluntary, . self-created; and irre
sponsible political assemblage not in their
primary character, but in that of delegate
has accomplished its sinister object. It has
infused into the Legislature, through'; the
form and sanction of an Executive measure
its rigid and despotic policy , in grinding into
dust ba present political minority' in the
Statei It is possible such a plan might have
occurred to the author of the, message, as
entitled to his official cognizance, without
the whisper of tho convention ; yet he has
scTocted an occasion to bring it forth, which,
reduces that bare possibility to an absolute
improbability. Is thiarthe first annual mes
sage ever penned by the same hand: to the
same legislative body? .This question drags
up another.; Until within the last 'two" or
threeycars, what" representative in Con
gress ever offended the democracy of .Ala
bama, by opposing from an honest sense of
duty, the ruinous course of tlie administra
tion T Here lies the secret of the proposed
"Change. The surplus democracy of the
mountains, rolling as ah avalanche en the
southern portion of the State, is to crush the
Third and Fifth Districts, now fortified by
the- Whigs, and to save the Fourth, which
has spoken against Van Burenisin and its
whole democratic retinue."
On the subjects of the State Penitentiary
and Penal Code, Gov. Baghy reminds the
Legislature that by the 1st of May, 1841,
the State Prison will be completed accor

50, will be necessary to fulfil the contract,
in addition to former appropriations. This
system of punishment in preferable to that
cruel and unsightly torture, whipping and
branding, which criminals are now made
to undergo in certain cases ; and we concur
in the views of the message on this subject

THE POST OFFICE.
Tliat there is a general deficiency in the
public revenue, to a large amount, which it
will be among the first duties of the present
or the next Congress to provide for, not only
for the time being but for time to come, we
presume is universally understood. If no.
thing be done by way of providing tot the
extinction of this debt, the .first thing, ' in.
deed, that Congress will have to do under
tho administration of General Harrison j
(who will no doubt restore to Congress the'
duty of managing therevenue, usurped by
the Executive sinceAhe 4th of March 1829)
will be to provide at once for the payment
of a public debt (including Treasury notes)
of twenty or thirty millions of dollars. The
next and yet more important duty which
will necessarily devolvk upon the next Con.
cress will be to provide a permanent addi
tion to the revenue, which falls annually
