They?were among the first to unfurl the Danner to the-, breeze, and to keep it floating they have maint|imed one of the most animated and zealous earnests ever waged in the country. It has been W contest in which all have mingled, and all, all ? nave nobly done their du*y. We had intended to have signalized the ef forts of the “ bloody 600 th district 'as well as those of the citizens in the county, l int in a con test where all have nobly united tbear whole en ergies it is useless to distinguish. Lt conclusion we have but a word to say to |>ur friends, and it will apply as well to all Georgia as to Richmond county. The first decided blow has been struck, which has prostrated and scattered the forces of the opposition—the gresf revolution is hut just begun, much yet reraains’ro be done, and we beseech you not to put off v >ur armor, until the Augean stable is thoroughly cleansed, —the spoilers dispersed. We have not yet received the cct iplete offi cial returns from the various precincts but enough is ascertained to know that our majori.y in the county is over 500. In this city the vote stood for Ha risen 708, for Van Buren 364. Will the sub-editor of the Constitutionalist (we believe the Corporal is absent from tl.: city) have .the candor to give his readers this t, r nd sober •opinion of the letter purporting to have been written by Gen.

The Charleston Mercury denounces it, in the following language: On consideration, we feel bound to? pronounce this Extra a forgery, and to inform th- man, who ever he is, that took the trouble to di-vise, print and send it to us, that we think him a; very great scoundrel for his pains.

Joseph Porte”, of Gloucester coun ty. was re-elected Vice President of the Coun cil. (State Senate.) Robert E, Hornor, of Princeton, was re-ap pointed Secretary of the Council by a vote ot twelve Whigs »o five Locos; one Wing being absent. The state of parties being, in the Sen ate, thirteen Whigs, to five Locos. The Hon. John Emley, of Burlington county, was appointed Speaker of the House of Assem bly and Samuel Prior, clerk, by the large majori ty of forty-one Whigs, to twelve Locos, that be ing the state of pa-lies in that branch of the Le gislature. The Governor has just sent in a capital Mes sage this morning to the Legislature, in which he speaks out the plain hut firm language of a freeman of the Jersey soil—he calls things by their right names. I shall forward you a copy by to-morrow’s mail Correspondence of the Commercirl Advertiser. Boston, Oct. 24. We are at wor* hero—l have been admonish ing the whigs of my ward, in the log cabin.

The editor of the New York American has ken hold of the co /spiracy affair in the manner, and is'carrying the war into the «■ of the conspirators with a vigor that has not . li ly put them on the defensive, but absolutely j. a portion of them to flight. With Mr. Bull he deals with the plainness which the circum stances demand, and lakes him by the oeard at once, pointing out to him not merely the failure of the accursed plot, out the gross shame, toe scandalous disgrace, of a puolic officer treasuring up a knowledge of fraud without attempting to punish it, or seeking to hide the crime of false vo ting by charging similar offence upon innocent opponents. — U. S. Gaz. Millington Bank.—The Kent (Md.)News of Saturday states on Tuesday evening last, that J.C. H. Ellis, the pr dent of this swindling institution was committed to the jail of that town. He is charged “with having been concerned w ith Weed, Adams, and others in the management i f the Commercial Bank of Millington, and for con spiring with said Weed, Adams and others, to cheat and defraud the public by issuing and cir culating divers notes ot said hank, and receiving for said notes a valuable consideration, when they, the said J. C. H Ellis, Weed Adams,and others, well knew the said notes to be of no value.’’ Such is the language oft :■ writ, and we now hope to see the matter thoroughly sifted and prosecuted, and the guilty offenders punished with the severest rigour. From the Soathein Christian Advocate. Georgia Female College. The exercises o! this Institution were resumed on the first Monday of the present month.—The term continues lor U n successive months. It is important to the interests of the College and con tributes no little to the advantage of the pupil, for those who propose to come, to he present at the beginning, or as soon thereafter as po ible. In the competition to which a generous and well directed ambition prompts the student, the chan ces are decidedly in favor of those whoenter ear ly. Delay imposes extra du’es and ofieutim embarrasses the whole subsequent progress. We are disposed to urge this point, because we know that very trivial circumstances sometimes induce parents to postpons the performance of what it is iheir intention ultimately to do. At the proper lime, it is perhaps mcuuver ent to start —The loss of a week or even a month will not make much difference. It is considered economy to stay home as long as possible, and good policy too, if money is to be saved by it, to cut off’a quarter from the term—a thousand little domestic mat ters are in the way— the daughter is reluctant to leave, and so they talk and wait till days, and weeks, and months steal away—time is lost—ed ucation arrested, and difficulties and discour merits are accumulating for the pupil. Besides, some w'e learn are waiting for frost—apprehen ding sickness if they come beforehand. This is true of sonic, we know, who live in the sickliest counties in the State. 'The philosophy ot this procedure is beyond our comprehension. If an experiment of two years duration can justify n conclusion, then do we pronounce Macon healthiest city in die Southern States. If ■ were not true of the city, still it might be said without qualification or abatement that in the in terior of Georgia, a healthier spot than the Col lege Hill cannot be found. Let a stranger visit it, look out upon the far stretching horizon—feel the balmy winds that sweep over it—drink li.e delightful water that gushes from its spring, or * that is drawn from its unfailing well, and survey ing all the premises, search in vain for any local ratue of disease, and his firs/ and his last impres sion will hi —This place is healthy.”—A>k of the hundreds who have attendee our Examina tions, if they ever saw a collection of healthier looking youths ] The pupils have time and space for exercise, and are required ny law to take it* We say then to ah our triends, let no unnet sary fears o! sickness make you detain vopr daugh ters at home. Send send—send. We want to see at least Two Hundred Pupils in the In stitution by the first of January. There are inanv, very many who have never subscribed a cent to wards the erection of the College, who may vet contribute^ to its prosper.ty, and pe petuity oy sending their children.— W'e appeal to them to • sustain an enlightened and liberal scheme ot ed ucation. It is due to your families—to the church \ of God—to all the best interests of the country. , We know the limes are hard, but education is j one of the last interests that should yield to the j “pressure.'' —Retrench something else. Aban- j don the luxuries or the table—adopt simplicity j of dress—curtail the expenditures for which pride and fashion and vanity call, and send your chil dren to school—to College. Let education— sound, practical, thorough, be the capital you lav up for their future days, ami you make them the heirs—the possessors of money that never fluc tuates iu its value, and will always command character and influence and specie —unless it ai a time like this.

From Hunt’s Merchant’s Magazine. Increase »1 British Manufactures. Two or three years ago, the Government In spectors of Factories, published returns of the number of Mills in the United Kingdom, and of the hands employed in them during the year 1835. Similar returns for the year 1838 laid lie fore Parliament in the past session, have been recent y printed. These two volumes afford the means of contrasting the condition of their manu factories in 1835 and 1838: Os cotton factories tnere were— In 1835 - 1,202, employing 220.134 hands. In 1838 - 1,315, employing 259,301 do. Os woolen factories there were— In 1835 - 1.313. employing 71,274 hands. In 1838 - 1.738, employing 86,446 do. Os flax factories there were— In 1835 - 347, employing 33 288 hands. In 1838 - 392. employing 43,487 do. Os silk factories there were— In 1835 - 228 employing 30,682 hands. In 1838 - 268, employing 34.318 do. It thus appears that, during the three years referred to, nc irly one thousand new tactori have been opened, and more than sixty-eight thousand new hands gaged.

As soon as the iaiificalions were exchanged, j Mr. Pichon, the Charge d’Al in s of France at Washington, sentordeis to Mr. Laussat at New Orleans, to hold a conference with Messrs. De Salcedo and Casa Calvo, the Commissioners of the King of Spain, on the subject of the cession of Louisiana to the United States. According ly, on the morning of the 30th November, 1803, the Spanish troops were drawn up in nt of the C:ty Hall. Tire French and Spani'h Commissioners came there followed by a procession of Hie merchants and inhabitants of their respective nations. Three chairs were arranged in tin* C'oun il Chamber, I and Sa-.ccdo o copying the middle one, Lpussai presented to him the decree of the loth October 1802. by which the King of Spain oidc-od his representative to deliver the Colony, to ‘he French Plenipotentiary. Mr. Laussat produced at the same time the authority of the First Consul to take possession of the country in the name of the French people. A er ’he public reading of these acts, tne Spanish Governor, leaving his t seat, delivered him the keys of the city, and the Marquis do Casa Calvo announced ‘'that the j Louisianians who should not declare that they wished to retire under the Spanish authority, were absolved from their oath of fidelity to the Catholic King.” At a signal, given by the firing of Cannon, the Spanish colors were lower ed and the French hoisted. The French sovereignly lasted from the 30th November to the 20l h December, 1803. Gen. Wilkinson advanced with the United States ops to the left bank of the Mississippi, and es tablished his camp on the 18tb I ccernber. 1803, within a half league of New Orleans. As soon as this took place the Spanish troops immediate ly embarked and sot sail for Havana. On the 20lh December, the day fixed for the delivery of the province to the United Stales, Laussat, accompanied by a numerous retinue, went to the City Hall. At the same moment the American troops were by his orders, introduced into the City. Gov. Claiborne and Gen. Wilk inson were received in form in the City Hall and were placed on cither side of M. Laussat. The treaty of cession, the respective powers of the commissioners and the certificate of the ex change of ra’ifleations were read. Laussat then pronounced these words:—“ln conl'or ity with the treaty. I pul the United States in posocssion of Louisiana and its dependencies. The citizens and inhabitants who wish to re main here and obey the laws, are from this mo ment exonerated from t e oath of fidelity to the F'ench Republic.’* Mr. Claiborne, exercising the powers of Governor-General and -Intendant of the province of Louisiai a. delivered u congrat ulatory discourse, addressed to the Louisianians. “'1 he ces-ioa,” said be, se ures to you and your descendants the i • ciitance of liberty. pi*r- I p tual laws, and magistrates whom you will elect i yourselves.” These formalities being fulfilled. Mr. Claiborne then declared that the authority of the United States was established, and the pub lic officers were duly installed in the exercise of eir several functions. A Caution to stare Proprietors ami Dri vers.—The Frankfort (Ky.) Commonwealth states that in the tall of 1838, the mail stage line, ‘ owned try Messrs E. P. Johnson & Co and the opposition line owned by Messrs. McNair & Weaver, came in contact on the turnp ke road nea* Shelbyville, by which the mail line was up set and several passengers had their limbs fractur ed. Among the persons injured was Mr. Isaac Laugblin, the driver ot the mad line who had the misfortune to have one foot and ankle crushed to pieces, by which he has been made a cripple for life. He sued McNair «Sc Weaver, the proprietors of the opposition, for the ury, alleging the wanton conduct of their driver as the cause. The case was tried some lime • inr'e in the Shelby Ci cuit Court, and a verdict was gi iin favor of Laughlm for $1,900. A new trial was granted upon application of the defendants; the case was removed te the Henry Circuit Court, and there tried the last week, when a verdict of $2,000 w as given.

Review for July, 1840, com mends the essay in strong terms, and we cannot better explain the feelings with which we perused it than by adopting the language of that periodi cal. “It is a red satisfaction, and affords relief under the disgust with which a well regulated mind contemplates the ferocity of our party contests to find an individual, situated like the author of this Essay, devoting a por on of his time and his pen to the calm consideration of a subject whose interest is purely historical.
