IT would appear from the last fteral.l, that our manner of poblifhing the Prcfuknt’s meffige of the yth December left, has no: been plcafing to the Editor of that peser!— Hoa-aver, we are somewhat consoled, as not one of ett: fubferibers has yrt complained, thinking, probably, as we did, that Mr. jHl>r(bo’s language was plain and intclligi ble enough, without anv comments from apnjlate IVh or eld Tones. We have goodreafun to believe tbit we should give every fitisfaftion to the Herald Editor* and .iffuage his enmity and fplcen, were we, mslicioufly and falfely, to call in question the vievvs, and motive*, political and moral principles of the Prcfident of the United Stares, and join the tory pack in the hue and cry against the majority of the re presentatives of dispeople, applauding eve ry man Sc measure, hoftiie to democratic in dilution's ; but we are fully aware that at the fame time wc should be deservedly despised as traitors to the Country, and impudent caluminators of those men, who have received a:;d continue to receive dif tinguilhed proofs of confidence and cttach memfrotn the great majority of the Citizens of these states } with thefc imprefitens, it cannot be expected that we will be able to please duty.republicans, leaving them how ever, to manage their own affairs in their own way* COMMUNICATION. WE are happy to learn from Mr. Fain, one of the Jofticrs of the Inferior Court of Walton County, that the feid county, is in » very peaceable and tranquil state. Our fellow citizens in that quarter having for’ feme time past been in much doubt and un ceno’nty as to the boundary between them and North-Carolma, this obstacle and diffi culty with them, is now removed-—Some «- mong them having at their own expcncs cm ployed an able mathematician to afeertain the 3sth l degree ofN, Latitude, which has been touna to be about 5 miles north of where the {urvcyor-gene.al of this state had fixed it —ln jaftice to cur state officer it mini be mentioned, from the information which wc have received from Mr. Fain that his in ftiufiions from the governor confined him to be within, rather than to exceed the lat itude aboveraenrioned. From thefc circum stances, our fellow citizens who have remo ved out of Walton county may, if they th.nk proper, return ; and further wc arc author), fed to state that an eledion far a Senator a.-, i a Reprcfentati vc to the general aflcmbly . f this state, will lie held at the former dwe.'. ling house of Wm, Allen in Walton cou.uy on the firft Monday in Oftubcr next. COMMUNICATION. I am irresistibly led by feeling, and ref- , pest for the place in which I live, to suggest with differential bolclnefs to oar city Coun cil, the remissness of their duty. To you gentlemen have we confided the foie gui dance of oar dameftic policy—our nece&nry and ©rnamciual improvements, nay all our regulations are to proceed from your pater, nal orders. Let me reqieft you to walk round our city, and if y our feelings are not wounded, then will I fay you are void of sensibility 01 fhamc. Our Church is neatly in the centre of the town—the burying ground lies around it, r i kc latter tven in that central position, fm been exposed as a regardlcfs common, nearly twelve months, and no preparations yet for its repair. The very weather-boards of the Church are dif fered to fail or be torn oil without exciting your attention. Say, ye guasclians of onr city, have you friends that moulder there ? Like many of my fellow citizen?, 1 con fifs I have a relative, once molt dear, depo- , sued in the place reserved by the corporati on, for the exclusive itception of our honor ed dead ; not as a range for bcafts of every defeription, that roam upon our common.— O you friends of Augusta, protect from in sult, this confccrated spot, and receive the grateful applaufc of yonr fellow citizens.
