The road is now prepar ed to resume the receipt of freight to lLai point, and oo to morrow tba passenger train: will run through the entire lice. lu the direction of Augusta tho work i progressing very satisfactorily. Five addi tioual miles have been oppnod during tbtv last weeli to the public, presenting eighty o:.e miles of open road to Graham's Turu-Out. Five other miles aro in readiness for thc rai!., and wi!l need only a few days for completion ?nd a further extermino,of the Lne. ,U-i? terruptiou, that during tuis month it will be open to Blackville. The dutiej imposed upon the company have been of thc most trying na turo. A fair ex amination of the facts will show that durin? thu five months, the period for which the? have hid thc control of the road, there btu been no unwarrantable delay or inexcusable indifference to the public necessities in pu-h ing forward thc neoded repairs. Within this time three important bridges have been built, all the wooden structures on the Camden road renewed, and nu ch portions of the nul an were needed for the completion of the Colombia road removed, ann" soventy-two miles of additional track opened to the public.

Net Living room to publish -'ho entire Report if thv Secretary of the Triaaury, we continue tu lotice suoh portions as are mast interesting and mportant. Saerotary McCt'LLeru rays that ' Taxas rary largely in different States, and in llfferent countiis and cutics of tbe same Stitr, ind aro everywhere so high tbat, unless proteoted against them, tho bonds into which tho prosunt debt (meaning ll.o talbnal dobt pf the United States) niust bo funded, ennnut bc distributed among tho pe?ple, except in wine favored Ideali ties, unless they bcp.r a r?.t? ol' interest so high nd to make thu debt severely oppressive, and to render the prospect of extinguishment well nigh hopeless. Kxempttd from local taxation (ly which Mr. Med Li.ncii means State taxation) ?bc debt eau, it is expect*d, be funded at an early day ut five per cont : if local taxation be allowed, no considerable portion of tho debt which falls due within the nexi four years can bo funded at home at lets than eight per cent. Tho Tax-payors of thc United States cannot afford to have their burdens thu? i ..oroasrd." It is a leud'-r regari then for " tbs Tux-payers of tho United State*"' that ?uduc?s tLe Treasurer to pro; o?o bis present scheine. Struggling under thc intolerable burden of Three Th-usaud Mil liun Dollars of public debt, baa Air. McCl'LLOcn's bruin leeville addled, or i* lo calculating upon the ignorance of tba people in puti g forth this chem*, and telling them it is for their inters?! ? tho scheme which ho jTop?ies is simply 'his: tbat the public debt, amounting to Three Thou sand Million Dollars, be funded, i. e that tho (?.itreintaeot Fu?s 'n market aii? soils its bonds to tbe ?mount of Three Thousand Million Dollar?: oiid thcic bonds are to be forever held frei ot tasatiou. Ho tells us elscwbora that tho whole property o? the United Staios amounts to "Four teen Thousand Million Dollars. Ho proposes therefore that about ono filth of tho catiro pro perty of the United States be made exempt from taxation. And what class o'f property does ho propose thus to exempt '. I* il ",0 properly of tho peor ; ol' tho laboring class of tho pcoplo ; ot small f ri?era; ortho utoessarics of life? Just tho reverse. Uo proposes to exompt three thou sand milli-n dollars worth of Govornmont bonds from taxation. And who will be the holders of these bonds ! Why th? capitalists, the moneyed men ?-f the country, merchant princes, Wail Street Bankers, sleek-jobbers; and the Shylock! generally of the land. The eon.*urination of this severne would *roct in a republican Govern ment ike mo?t odious moneyed aristocracy the world ever saw. Jews and stock jobber? holding Three Thousand Million Dollars freo of taxation ; abd the small fsruier, tho mechanic, the trades ulan, ?nd the poor of all eh?SOS, heavily taxed to pay the.intcrest upon this gigantic debt to sup pott this numerous and nasty nobility! Would the people of thc Nofib, and especially of the North West, pay a tax of a million and a hall dollars, the interost upon cucha debt as this? We have sli&ngely mistaken their intelligence il tboy do. There must undoubtedly bc some strong reason that urges Mr. MCCULLOCH to put forth such s ?chemo. Aud we accordingly find that reason in bis admission that unless thee Bonds are ex empted from taxatiot, tboy vauuut Iv told. Thi? we admit will very certainly be thc result. Il vhree thousand inillien dollars worth of Govern ment Bends subject to taxation be thrown upor the market, thero will be few or no purchasors M<iu?)od mon will be very shy of investing gon inonwy iu Kunda which may inver be paid Whether suth Bonds will ever be redeemed de pends upon Ibo voters iu tho Uuited States. I A maj ?lily of the voters iu tho several S ates an eppo?td ti paying the interest upon those Conds they have but to eelect members of Congress wh< will voie for their repudiation-and there will bi an end ot tho Bonds. To coujecturo what tin pnople will chuose to do iu such a caso, it woub be well to inuuiro whit will be their intereti ; ai i is a pretty safe calculation to suppose tbatmen wil [bo funded, wL i the r these Bonds bs exempt from tax a'iunornot, there will not be one man in ton wbi will bo a Bond-bolder; or suppose tboro bo ono ii three. Two nun thon out o' every threo in tin country will bo taxed to pay tho interest on Loud; in which tboy have no interest; and tho tax, Mr MCCULLOCH himself admits, will bcy?rs per ceu ou the res .urces of the country. Will tho gr?ai mass of thc laboring pooplo of tho country, i. o two-thirds, agree to pay this tax, for the benefit of the remaining third-and that third the mon eyed aristocracy of the laid? These ar? questions that capitalists will look eaut'iously into before touching Gorernmenl Bonds ; and this the Treasurer is troll aware .of, Honco his anxiety to have tkeso Bonds exempted from taxation ; as otherwise tbore will bo no hope of selling ilium. We bare shown tho monstrous injustice which such a scheme would work to thc poor and tho laboring men of tho country; and it is for them to decide whothor or not they will erect a perin .neut moneyed aristocracy iu thi country.

Judgo Cbi.-o, as is wull known, wantsHo bc a candidste for tho next Presidency : and it is supposed he is hastening to ?teure thu friendship and influence of the KKTOICU family, which is fabulously wealthy. But how rotten and disgusting is all this sort of thing ! Who applios for the pardon of a poor wretch who (no matter bow honest before) steals a loaf of bread to carry home to a largo and starv ing family ? He is summnrily pieced in the hnnds of the law, tried, convicted, and incarcerated for years; while bis family starve outright. Buta gentleman of high social position, ptcvious ex cellent character, and lovely family, who in an unguarded moment takes a step (how fearful a step was KKTCIUH'S !) from the path of rectitude! He moots with all the sympathy his interesting ease dc?erves; th? unpleasant affair mu?t be set tled, if possible, hythe gentleman's friends; at all events it must not bo allowed to affect his un blemished reputation ! " A littl* stealing is a dangerous part, But stealing largoly is a noble art.

WHAT NEXT.-Major General King, Com mandant of this District, accompanied by bi wife, and another gentleman and lady, drov out yesterday afternoon, and when abou throe miles from the city were met by tw men on horseback, who enquired the road t Milledgevillo, and after the interchange of few woids, demanded of the General to sui render to him tho horses which he was driv ing. Tho demand being accompanied by th exhibition of shooting irons, the Genera gracefully, but reluctantly, surrendered t overpowering force, from the fact that h was unarmed t and, doubtless, carno to th conclusion, under the circumstances, tha discretion was thc better part of valor. Th robbers immediately unharnessed the Gene ral's horses aud bid him an affectionate faro well. After dn"ir:~ ^u a short distance those high way robbers met a ge ltleraan and lady, rid ing on hr<*?Aback, who accompanied Genero King and lady ?the city, and with thi utmost audacity commanded the gentlemai to dismount, which he did, and his horse wai then appropriated ; making in all three horst ; which they had stolen. This is in every res peet the boldest highway robbery which wi have of late chronicled, when wc consider thi time, thc place and thc prominence of th? victims of this outrageous proceeding. Gen eral King, on his return to tho city, sent i detachment of mounted men after the "rob hers, and wc sincerely trust that they will b< arroato.d and punished severely for tin's high handed outrage. The General is an officer of the old Army and ha?, by his judicious and impartial ad ministration of-all matters coming under his jurisdiction, woa the respect- und esteem o our citizens, and we sincerely regret the oc currence of this daring highway robbery.
