mmgm SEPTEMBERS, 18257 In the last Georgia Advertiser we mentioned . t bat tie succeeding publication would be issued under He title of the “ Augusta Chronicle k Georg* Advertiser .» We accordingly present to-day tne first number of the paper, and hope that it may , i prove accepuble to its readets. It will be con tinued hereafter three times a week, at si* dollars per annum, and those subscribers who do not signify a disposition to discontinue the paper, wU ** considered as disposed to extend their patron arr, under the present arrangement. We think Uiey will he pleased with it, on account of the in creased facility of obtaining the latest intelligence and our advertising customers will he henefitted by the increased circulation of their favors, as the united subscription of the two papers is liberal and Verv extensive. For a particular account of the terms of subscription and advertising, the reader is referred to the first column of the opposite page. TO THE EDITOR OF THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE. Sir-From the remarks of the Editors of the Na tional Intelligencer upon the decision on the claims under our late treaty with Spain, the following ex tract has been made;— ■* It was added and very in geniously maintained by one of the Commissioner (Mr. T.) [farewell,] that in all cases of treaty, the sovereign contracting parties had a right lo ten strut them, and that the judicial tribunals of ov.ry country were bound to govern their decisions by that construction. He pointed out the difference in this respect,between a treaty and any other law <,f the land, and very ably contended that, as the , former was a contract between two sovereigns, no inferior power could interpret It. But as we be lieve this doctrine to be entirely new, and our re collection of what was advanced not very accurate, we shall forbear lo go farther.” To the soundness of Mr. Tazewell’s argument, as thus reported, 1 fully subscribe. But I cannot a gree with the editors, that Mr. Tazewell’s doctrine is “ entirely new.” Something very mu eh like the same doctrine may he found in the Resolutions of the Kentucky legislature, passed in 1798, and said (no doubt truly) to have been penned by Mr. Jef ferson. Although I shall copy the resolution allud to, jet the similarity of doctrine is to he found only in the part underscored. - Resolved, That the several States composing the , United States, are not united on the principle of un. limited submission to their general government , but that by compact under the style and title of a constitution for the United States and of amend ments thereto, they constituted a general govern ment for special purposes,delegated to that govern ment certain definitive powers, reserving each State to itself, the residuary mass of right to their own self-government; and that whensoever the general government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force. That to this compact, each State acceded as a Slate, and is an integral part)', its co-states form ing as to itself, the other party. That the govern ment created by this compact, was not made the exclusive or final judge of the extent of tire pow ers delegated to itself: since that would have made its discretion, and not the Constitution, the measure of its powers; but that us in all ether eases of compact among parties having no common judge, EACH PARTY HAS AN EQUAL RIGHT to judge for itself, as well of Infractions as of the jneans of redress.” A treaty is nothing more than a “compact” be tween two- or more *4 Stale-. ”-. “- J '.*— u oalls them, “sovereign contracting powers,” having “no common judge.” The doctrine therefore is not “ entirely new,” that in cases of compacts of lids des cription, eath party has o right to construe them.— We cannot doubt but that this principle contains the “ entirely new” doctrine of the editors of the Intelligencer, because the words arc italicised by Ike editors, for the purpose of attracting notice. X have net consulted auy work on National Law on the subject; but 1 have as little doubt, that the doctrine was not “entirely new,” even to Mr. Jef ferson. What a multiplicity of difficulties and controver sies the editors of the Intelligencer might have sav ed themselves from, had they been so fortunate as to have met with this doctrine and adopted it at an earlier period of their lives. These gentlemen have been as great sticklers for judicial supremacy in the construction of the “ compact” alluded to by Mr. Jefferson, as any other conductors of a public Jour nal whatsoever; not even excepting Mr. Walsh. But as the ingenious argument of Mr. T. has at last unfold ed this “ entirely new doctrine” to their minds’ eye, it is to be hoped that the people of the “States” of Virginia and Ohio may hereafter be spared from their unmerciful castigations and be permitted by them,each asa party to a compact with other parlies, between whom there is no common judge, to “ have i a right to judge for itself ;” or “ a right to construe the compact,” and to judge “as well of infraction* of the measures of redress.” C. British Navy. —A late Liverpool paper gives a detailed list of the Navy of tireat-Briiain, for which we have not room to-day; but among the different denominations of vessels, we perceive that there I are ten of 120 guns, one of 112, three of 100, seven I fmm 104 to 108, 13 80 gun ships, eighty-six 74’s one hundred and ten frigates, (different classes) as well as several 60 gun ships, Ac, Ac. the whole naihhcr of vessels, amounting to FIVE HUNDRED md FIFTEEN! containing Twenty-Two Thou sand Three Hundred and Twenty-one Guns !!1 Now contrast the above with the American Navy, in the present year it consists of not more than * hirty-alx vessels and Ten liundml and Forty nine Guns—A fearful odds, indeed! and certainly, calculated to fill one with amazement and gratitude at the success of the latter in the late war.—Verily 1 a David and a Goliab! “ Putting the town to rights,” as it is waggishly sailed, seems lately to have been the order of the bight in Augusta. It is defined to be, the removal of steps , the exchanging of signs; with various other feats requiring great bodily labor, and wh.ch if ap plied steadily to any useful object, would soon make the fortunes of all engaged in such frolics. It is a i>oor joke, indeed, where one is compelled to keep it to himself; and among the numerous pranks played, of the above nature, not one in a hundred ever excites . any thing but contempt We perceive tiiat the city of Mobile, is also infested with a few of those prac tical wits. Their achievements are noticed in the Commercial Register, of that place, in the follow ing humorous style. “Certain funny gentlemen will do well to desist from a portion of their refined amusements. If they upset many more things, they may get upset themselves—ifthey teardown more signs, they may fiad their own names lettered —the starting of more Posts may cause them to be posted—the twisting off knockers may cost them a slight knocking. At all events, we advise them to mend their ways, by dis ! continuing to commit depredation* jupon the high nays, else their dark works may he watched, mid i they be required to walk into a dark place.” Ifj" The communication of our poetical corres- I pendent, received some time since, U not out of our I -sight: it shall be attended to as soon as previous I mvors ore disposed of. “ First come,” Ac. ■ >tT W» are forced to defer Uie publication of BROWN” till our next. • O’ Communication*, on the suhjec s of Qistoty Politics, Biography, Religion, Agrica’lure, Ac. arc espectfully solicited, and will meet \ th deserved and prompt attention.

COUSIN LUCY. CHAPTER V. I. Some folk*, when they sit down lo write a poem, Will havea verse or two of why and wheri/ort; That’s not the way of one: and if you know him, You know; among ye he has none lo care for. (That is; I fear no man unless I owe him, But that is always an exception;) Therefore, As I’ve some miscellaneous thoughts in my posses sion, This one shall be-.u chapter of degression. 11. In the first place, then, I will state the reason; (Though reason has not much to do with rhyme;) Why my third chapter did not come in season F'or Monday’s paper—'Twas the want of time. I do sincerely hope, 1 shall be free, soon, From this curst tooth-ache. 'Twas occasion'd, I'm Quite sure, (the recollection makes me quiver,) By that steam-boat excursion down the river, 111 Or rather to New-Bedford, on last Friday.— There is upon my catalogue of evils, A heavj- one; to cure which, 1 have tried a Great UiaUV wav* tho laniianlW-U..Js- , liS— And, by experience, 1 have found a highway The very best tiling to break up their revels.— And now to make short work of a long story, I’ll mpiuTmy pen, and place the scene before ye. IV The boat was fill’d; deck, cabin, bar and kitchen.— Curved, horizontal, perpendicular and angling, la all positions; (some werequite bewitching,) The steam was going, and the iron jangling; The wintt was blowing, ami the boat was pitching.— Some of them looked as if they hail been strangling. So weak and faint; their jaws at every sea, Sirs, Flow open, like so many lemon-squeezers. V. “ Do j'ou feel better, Madam ?” “ I don’t know”— “ Fray, will you throw that shawl around my neck, Sir.” u Oh, Lord! Sir, will you help me down below.” W l*U thank you to assist me upon deck, Sir;” * * * A * * * ♦ * * * * A * There’s nought so bad, in all a poet’s duty; Ms close attendance un a sea-sick beauty. ******* VI. O, what a curious world this is of ours; Forever changing; and yet still the same! And w hat is man, whose high ambition towers To mount Hie high and slippery steps of fame ! Time paralyzes all his boasted powers, And leaves him but the shadow of a name; Turns his hair grey; and all his strength relaxes; And proves that nothing’s sure hut death and taxes. VII. When a man dies, what joy it does create In many people; though their tongues deny it, — From those who ti en inherit his estate; Rut still their words and looks must nut imply it; And some “ old Hunks,” perhaps, who lies in wait For a good opportunity to buy it To those who dig Ids grave and build Ids coffin, And him who drives the heanethey wheel himoffin. VII. We’ve some toll bridges here: (there’s no presump tion In speaking thus;) which always looks to me as If they were in the last stage of consumption— With as many crooks as any shrub-oak tree has. But still, of toll, they cause a great assumption; So that the owners of these half starved bridges, Have, like myself, uncommon privileges. IX. But yet : success attend you, old “ Rhode-lslaml, And I’rovidence Plantations;” as ’tis writ. Though not one foot in all of you is my land; Nor ever will be, if I’ve not more w it. And surely, if I ever meant to buy land, I’d puli up stakes directly here and -quit The soil at once; unless my wealth was gotten By burning lime, or picking over cotton. LUCY’S COUSIN.

The promtp ness with which the most difficult ques lions wore answered in English Gram mar, Arithmetic, Geography both An cient and Modern, Rhetoric, Re. evinc ed at once the industry of the pupils and the fidelity of the Instructresses. The trustees of this Female Semina ry, at the commencement of the year, declared that it was not their intention to puff the Institution into notice i yet they feel no hesitation in saying that they have seldom witnessed an Examin ation in which Girls of the same .age did themselves or their Instructresses mure credit and, after having observed for six months the course of instruction pursu ed here and the degree of proficiency attained, we can cun scienliously recom mend this Academy as worthy of the public patronage The healthfulness ut this place and the advantages which as a village it enjoys, it is confidently hoped will offer sufficient inducements to parents to place .heir daughters in this Seminary.

At the close of the next vacation, it is intended to adopt in the Academy a more regular and syg tenia ic course of education than is ge nerally pursued in similar Institutions The vacations are so arranged that the Rector is seldom on the circuit during the term.
