Between trurty and forty cases, in all. have occur red; and of these about eighteen have resulted in death.’ .Most of the other? arc convalescent; the remain n r doubt'd. Facts and experience h ive fully demon ratec hers, tiiat the disease is not contagious, bat epidemic, | |land that undue excitement and fear exercise an active 1 agency in producing the mortality among its subn et?. , Tnetown is almost deserted by its laboring and the countenances of tuc remaining citiz*n?, w.rn i, some few exceptions, exhibit marks ot unusual < ••■•pr*.?. 1 sion and melancholy. This is greatly to be inmented. The < tfect is unJiapny. Wuh every di“c fm;na f iou t ■ re-; : ; sist the mental contagion, I occasionally in i tny.-- .1 ja<t in the act of yielding to it. My family have, so inr, tn lirely escaped. How long this exemption may roatmun, .1 know not; but I do not allow tiie idea of dread to pre- !vail among ih**m, and believe tiiat, up to tins moment, ' the y have not known what apprehension on the subject was. i regret to add, that the intelligence from the regular' ; troops is disastrous. Os the three companies ot artillery 1 uadi r Col. Twiggs, and two or tiiree more companies of j infantry with them, few remain. These troops, yon will recollect, landed Iroin the steamboat Henry Clay below : Fort Gratiot. A great number of them have been swept ;off by the disease. N- rrly all the others hare deserted. Ot tlie deserters, scattered all over the country, some |have died in the woods, and tli ar bodies have been devoured by the wolves. I use tlie language ot a gal jlant young officer. Others have taken their flight to the j world of spirits, without a companion to close their eyes, 'or console the 1 i=t moments of their existence, i ieir strangling survivors are occasionally seen marching, : soiau of them know nut whither, with their knapsack? ! on their hacks, shunned bv the terrified inhabitants as the source of a mortal pestilence. Col. Twiggs himself, and .Surgeon Everett, have both been attacked, and arc very low. They were still living at the latest ac ! counts from Fort Gratiot, aud sanguine hopes were en terfained of their recovery. No other officers have yet been assailed, except Lieutenant Clay, whose death was mentioned to you in my previous letter. You will remember that tlie troops under Cot. Cum mings, several of whom died here, embarked on board the steamboat William Penn, on Sunday last, for Chicago. The sickness among them increase*) as they proceeded to Fort Gratiot, and became so great by the time they arrived there, that they were disembarked, and have re-: turned to the vicinity of this city, and encamped at Springwalls, about three miles below town. Seventeen or eighteen of them have died, and some still remain ; i sick, prnb ibly never to recover. One hall of the com mand of Gen. Scott, ordered to Chic igo by the Lakes, ■ will never read* him; a large portion of them dying ; j a still larger number of them deserting train an over whelming dread of the disease, aud tlie residue obliged 1 to inarch back. This is a gloomy picture ; but it i? literally true. We have had intelligence from the scene of Indian j war, yesterday and this morning. (Jon. Dodge, near i ■ Galena, had encountered a banditti of savages, consisting jot’ twelve, and killed every man ol them, scalping eleven.: ! I Captain Stephenson, near the same place, had encoun ’ j tcred another body of them, and killed six or seven, ' .'losing three of his own men. The fight was close and idesper to, the instruments ot the sanguinary contest be ing chiefly bayonets, knives, and tomahawks. The; [most unfavorable part of the war intelligence is, that. j Black Hawk, with the main Indian army, tied retreated , Ito the west of the Mississippi, where it will be difficult 1 !to take him. I? is to be hoped that peace will never' 1 be made with him, or any of his hostile allies, until they , ■ are placed beyond tlie possibility of committing another . depredation or in issacre. The frontier inhabitants have ! become exceedingly exasperated; and many ot them, without knowing the real situation o! Atkinson, have blamed his apparently slow movements. I have no doubt that he has, under the circumstances, acted for; 'the best. Yours truly, JOHN NORVELL. j Robert Morris, Esq. Editor of the Inquirer. Dm rnoir, July 12. On Monday evening a small vessel arrived from F >rt Gratiot having on board fifteen ot the officers, who had ’ been ordered to leave camp in consequence of the pi-e --i valence of die Cholera, and report at West Point on the . first September. From one of them we learn that Lieut. | (T-v. who was attacked with tlie Cholera, died on j Monday morning.

CAVEBO. j i a ( * J AN- EK OF A’ IN VITATION r TO THE OGLETHORPE MEETING. i .! Augusta, July 30, 1833. ! 17% Messrs. Joseph Henry Lumpkin, John Moore, John Billups, J. B. M'Jcnkin, George H. Young, Augus. ?j Tus Aluen, and John Banks : I G ntirmrn, —I have the honour to acknowledge the re-j ■j ccipt of your invitation of tho2lst instant, and regret,| •j that circumstances wiil prevent my attendance, at the. 1 i meeting in Lexington. Bit though absent, I shall feel ■ a deep interest in your deliberations.—Perhaps you will ! pardon a fellow-citizen, who conscious of no motive, but ‘ '■tel wish to promote the general good, \tentures to lay be ‘j! « , _ . . . , ; lore you, a tew reflections on the topic which it is your , | intention to discuss. The first step? in a movement like that which you! •j j have commenced, are of the utmost importance. What- j Mevcr arguments may be urged, in favour of any particu llar mode of action, it is certain, that no policy can be . 'eligible for Georgia, which doe? not preserve harmony ‘ : among her citizens. Our strength always has been, and i always must be found, in our unanimity. Division is! weakness, in its most dangerous form. Whatever may be our relations to others, while prudent counsels main-' 1 tain a singleness of purpose among ourselves, the po- ; : sition of the State is inexpugnable. Break us into fac tions, and our own hands become the instruments of : i our humiliation. Let a sen c c of this great truth govern . us, in the discussion of those delicate questions, now . before the public. In the spirit of this principle, wc should endeavour, in tiio first place, to ascertain the amount of losses, wliich we suffer by the tariff and the particular duties i from which they arise. Some persons, I know, with ; out reference to tlie quantum of injury, advocate rcsisT il ance on the simple ground, that the smallest duty for protection is unconstitutional. But the generality of | mankind, little versed in the niceties of political disqui sition, are more influencod by the practical effects of i law, tiian by its abstract propriety. On the former point, there exists great diversity of opinion in relation ■ to the tariff—some contending that its evils are felt vc ; ry moderately, if at all; while others represent it. as a system of rapine, which must speedily consummate our ruin. Those who differ so widely, cannot ;>e expected very heartily to co-operate. Nothing would sooner dis. ' pose them to ao: in unison, than the removal of this dis. ; agreement, by a clear, authentic statement of 'he truth. . We greatly ueed a satisfactory exposition of the mode, * and degree, in winch the tarirl operates on Southern interest. A doctrine has indeed been promulgated, which professes ;n a very summary manner, to remove every doubt. I allude to a theory, which denying that . the duty on imported articles, is poid by the consumer ■ maintains tiiat the whole burden o* tne impost, is borne r bv the producer of those domestic articles, which arc t * ’exported. That a notion so extravagantly fuse, could i 1 • ' 1 , - . ■ . , cbe countenanced io r a Tnoiaen*. is only a proot how much wc are wan: oi statistical ini .relation. There ■ ■an scarcely boa plausible conjecture, concerning the , degree of injury occasioned by the tariff, until we learn —what is our consumption or domestic articles that en joy protection, and of foreign arti des subject to duty. ;To these essential facts we should ben I our attention. *! discarding visionary fancies, whieii tire equally at vari ijance with the recorded wisdom of philosophy, and the ■ very day experience of plain common sense. | If it is decided, that the evils of the tariff cannot be en sured, and that relief is no longer to be expected from ■ the n itioaal legislature; there will still remain, the very I serious enquiry, in what manner we are to obtain redress. '; The two principal measures hitherto proposed, arc, nul ,j dauation, and a Southern Convention, To me it is mat* i ter of astonishment, that any reasonable man should he si j<ate between them. We will not dwell on the theory of j nullification —that nearest of all approaches to “organized anarchy,” but briefly advert to its practical results.—‘From 1 !he very structure of our commercial system, any state which nullifies the tariff law, in ist be placed in collision with those states, by which it is respected. Tae ne. ’cs. sity of protecting both the general revenue, and their own local commerce, will leave them but three alterna tives. They must execute the law by direct force— they must interrupt the importation of the milliner? —or they must submit to their dictation. Policy woul 1 forbid the first, and pride, if not principle, the latter; we may therefore reasonably expect, that the ports of any nullify ing state, would be subjected to blockade. Objections i have been urged, to the constitutionality of such a proce-j dure. It is not very important at present, to discuss j them.—Those who believe that the majority has wan- j ronlv usurped unconstitutional power, in the enactment of the tariff, c.annot presume that the same majority would be scrupulous enough, to abstain from the necessary means of enforcing it, especially when it? unchecked vio lation, must expose their own vital interests to destruc tion. .Suppose then, the coast of any of the .Southern States to bo blockaded. How is the blockade to be re moved ? Has any one of them a naval force that can vopc, with the very revenue cutters of the government 1 i Are we to seek a British alliance ?—Doubtful and melan choly resource ! extinguishing ali hope of continued union, and throwing us on the precarious dependance of a < foreign patronage. A Convention of the Southern States affords far bet | ter hopes. If they concur in a representation of their : common grievances, and calmly but firmly require, tha* their wrongs be redressed, or that the Union be dissolv- I ed; they will present the strongest possible appeal to the ; (justice, and the interest of the majority. The least fa vourable issue would be, <a peaceful severance of our ticsi without the necessity of those transatlantic connec i lions, so abhorrent to every Anterian feeling. But thcrc-is a farther consideration which, I think, ought alone to be absolutely decisive, against the plan of | the nullificrs. That scheme is already odious to the ; great mass of our population, both for it? intrinsic de merits, and the very officious effiorts which have been made, to obtrude it upon them. To declare in its favour, p? to raise the banner of discord. Admit even, that encou ,j raged by local movements, its popularity should increase :{beyond all present calculation; the consequence would be only a more complete distraction of the public mind. It is too manifest for denial, that a large proportion of our fel low-citizens, afier carefully examining the subject, are fix i ed in immutable hostility to the doctrine of nullification. If we meditate a course of policy, which may require us I eventually to depend on our own resources; can it be wise to commence, by destroying the very life of ail po litical resource—the unanimity of the people ? Let us aot in our fondness for measures nominally strong, adopt | those which are in reality weak. At such a crisis, weak— fatally weak, must every measure be, which confounding i the spirit of faction, with the spirit of patriotism, arrays i county against county, town against town, and neighbour against neighbour. United we have little to fear—divi ! Jed we have nothing to hope. For this trespass on your attention, I have only one apology to ofi’er—my very earnest desire, that your coun. | sc!? may have a tendency favourable to the peace, prog. I perity, and honour of our country. I am, gentlemen, with the greatest respect, your obedient servant, ONE OF THE INVITED. | - Mr. FOuM Ill’S st EECH On Mr. Poindexter's motion indefinitely to postpone the bill fior reducing the duties on Imports. Mr. President—The (Senator from Mississippi will not give a vote from which his sanction of this bill can be im plied, and his motion is made to prevent misconception as to the motive which has governed his previous vote on the question of hide finite postponement, before the highly objectionable amendments of the .Senate, rejected by the House of Representatives, had been abandoned here. In tending to vote in the negative on this proposition, the re marks made by its author, with others of a similar char acter, which have fallen from some of the .Southern Sena* ■ tors, make it necessary for me to say a few words in ex planation. I shall do so with the brevity befitting this ad ; vanced period of the session, and the late hour of the night. I prefer the bill before you to the act of 1823. I vote for it, because it repeals that act; proposes to reduce the revenue to the public wants; relieves the people from the burthen of millions of taxation, and is an evidence of the > desire ot those who believe in tha justice and policy of the I protective system, so to modify the existing law, as to make it less obnoxious to our feelings, and less injurious |to our interest lam told, Sir, that the protective princi ; pie is to be found in this bill. It is. lam sorry for it. It is then against my wishes and exertions. But am Ito \ be told that I adopt this protective principle because my : vote is given for the bill in preference to the existing law ? Is not the protective principle in the act of 1828 ? Does the rejection of this bill banish it tVom our political sys : tem ? No, Sir, it stands, as before it stood, in the most | odious and hateful form ; and shall I be charged with ac -1 knowledging its justice or admitting its authority, because ■ I prefer it in the modified and less odious shape which it ! has been made to assume 7 I repel the imputation, I will not retort upon those who act differently, dthough it is in my power. Those who vote to reject this bill, if their purpose is accomplished, fix the principle as firmly upon the country, as it will be fixed by the passage of the bill before us. They as clearly adopt by their negative preg-! nant vote, the principle of protection as those who vote for the adoption of r his modification of it. By preventing , the repeal of the act of 1828, they impliedly support all that act contain?. A conclusion to their prejudice, is as lair as that against us who will take the opposite course. Ido not draw this conclusion: the purpose of the south ern senators is avowed ; they will not countenance the principle ; let them have credit for it. All I ask is, that when forming conclusions on this subject, they yield to the others, the justice exercised towards them. Letjhem i admit, that we do not adopt, or approve, or countenance, the protective principle, by preferring this measure to the existing law. I do not deny. Sir, that those who think that the con tinuance of the act of IS2B may ho productive of a still more favorable modification of the revenue system,; than the present bill, at the next session of Congress, j are quite right to desire it to remain unrepealed. Didj 1 entertain that opinion, I should act with them. That this hope is vain, must be obvious to the least observing. No important changes in the character of Congress can be expected to occur by the next winter. The same opinion, the same feelings, will continue to operate up-i ; on the same persons, and the results of another winter’s I discussion, will be similar to the results of the efforts of j the last six months. It is possible, that, by bearing with ! the act, till a new Congress is edseted, under the late j apportionment of representatives, and a partial change jin this body occurs, happier results might be anticipat !ed; but. Sir, this anticipation does not justify the con [tinuance of the bur-hens of an unnecessary taxation, j Are gentlemen willing to collect ten millions of extra’ revenue, for the chance of mare enlightened opinions; in the Congress of 1834 and ’3 ? In my judgment, with out estimating the danger of suffering the present pub-: lie excitement to continue, without an effort to allay it, ; it would be unwise and unjust to purchase tills chance * at so high a price. If, a? I hope and trust, the next Congress should bring more correct opinions into the ; (public councils, the abolition of the protective princi-| (pic. as it appears in this bill, will be a work of as little I difficulty, and as acceptable, a? the banishment of it, by the repeal of the ac o*' 1328. One word. Sir. to those who arc the- friends of the pro tective principle; who really believe, in defiance of tact [land reason, that its preservation is essentially connected ; with the best interest of the whole country. Do not do- ; jc five yourselves, gentlemen. Tms bid is no compromise '—will not be so considered. It is received as an evt d.enre of your desire to accommodate your principles, n the legislation oi the country, to our teeli igs. It is not jthut accommodation. You'have stopped ;nr short of the ■true point, upon which the southern and northern princi ples must unite. This is only the first step. As such I i hope it will be considered, and so considered, that it will prevent all violent denunciations <Sc idle menaces. But the protective principle must .uid will be abandoned; reason,, justice, patriotism, demand it, and their voice must be : sooner or later obeyed. As for myself, never having giv en a vote on any question which can be tortured, (unlui? by those who arc predetermined to find pretexts to complain j of my conduct,) into an approbation of the principle, if will meet from me a ceaseless and uncompromising hostil ity. until the fatal error of 1816 shall be corrected. I h id hoped, I cannot say that I confidently expected, I such an adjustment of this vexed question, as would have deprived all portions of the country, and all p tr tics in the Union, of just motive for again agitating it,; before a new crisis in #Ur fiscal affairs should render it j absolutely necessary. In this hope I have been disap- 1 pointed. Tiiose who have the power, have most tut-j wisely, a? it regards the interest of the whole country, j and especially of that class of the community to whose i benefit they have almost exclusively looked, left the snb iiject in such a state, that a recurrence to it is inevitable. It will be again agitated ; under, I tru-t, happier auspi ces. Truth and justice may be evaded for a season by industrious error and ever active cupidity ; but their e vcntual triumph is certain. Th» time conies—l wait for it—confiding, that it is not distant. From the Washington Globe, 21st inst. j By a notice from the Secretary of the Treasury in j this day’s paper, it will be seen that the three per cent, < stock of the United States is to he paid off- — tiro-thirds on the first of October next, and the remaining third on jthe first of January next. | Two similar notices were issued by the Secretary at j the beginning of the present month, one for the payment lof the exchanged five per cents, of 20th ot April, 1822, and the other for the payment of one half of the ex changed four and a half per cents, of 26th May, 1824, both payable on the Ist of January next* After these payments .are made, the whole funded, debt of the United States will amount to only .66,962,660 27. Death of Com. George IF. Rodgers. —We regret to learn by our Buenos Ayres papers, that Capt. George W. Rodgers, commanding the U. S. squadron on the South. American station, died on board the United States ship Warren on the 21st May last, after an illness of ten dnvs. The Warren was lying in the Outer Roads of the harbor of Buenos Ayres. The Cosmopolitan says, “he retained full command-of his senses to the last moment. A few hours before his death, he called his officers a round him, and took a fatherly leave of them all-’ The deceased was about fortylfive years of age, a native of Maryland, a brorher of Commodore John Rod gers, now President of the Board of Navy Commission ers, and entered the service on the 2d of April, 1804.
