Wo had hut one ■ ' or two slips from the North, and the same from ’ ; the West. ■ ! The following is a copy of n letter from the 1 Editor, addressed to a friend in this city, dated New York, August 15, 1838. i Dear Sir •• —In the People’s Press of August , ; 3rd, I find a communication from Robert D. , Glover, which it is pci haps proper for me to notice. I have no reply to make to that part of it in : which bo gives his version of the affair at Ilum • | ! j hurg, or to the certificates accompanying it j They can all pass fur what they are worth. He ■ evidently desires to give it the semblance of an j “affair of honor,” and would no doubt feel it to | be an important point gained, to place himself before the public ns a “man of honor,” instead of a criminal fled from justice, and hiding beyond the reach of the laws of Georgia, to escape an ignominious punishment. I look upon that affair |in a different light—as a cold blooded attempt lo murder me under such circumstances as to give it the appearance ct a fair combat, and at a place where be believed tho influence of his relations and hnngors on, would enable him to escape the vu gcatice of the laws. He would gladly drown the public indignation against him for assaulting and maiming without provocation, a clry uUlcoc, at night, by filling a newspaper with his exploits, 1 and with bis filthy attack upon the character of j one whom he admits to occupy a station in soci. ely far- above him. But justice is not dead, although it may slumber fur a season, and the day of retribution will yet come ; the laws of the lan l ’, although <f en and deeply outraged of late, will yol be triumphantly vindicated, and the stain upon the characler of Augusta, for submis sion to the dominion of gamblers, will, 1 trust, : yet bo wiped away. But that part of his communication in which he attempts to fix upon me tho character of a 1 gambler, deserves a more particular notice. In relation to that matter, I have nothing to conceal or disguise. -■ During the summer of 1837 and a part of last winter, in common with many gentlemen of Augusta of the highest respectability, as well as professions,! and planting gentlemen from differ , cat parts of the country, who visited Augusta, ■ 1 occasionally indulged, for amusement, in the game of Bluff but under such circumstances as to divest it ot the character of gambling, and for | such trilling sums as to render it a matter of little ,jor no interest lo win, or injury to loose. Hut , | even this I have long since abandoned, and for 1 j the last six months, with two or three exceptions ' I at invited parties of gentlemen, I have uniformly r refused to jan in the game, always assign).”' ; ‘ s a reason that 1 never had played far the sake of money, that it hail eva c.i to bo an amusement, i and was withall a usele s waste of time. I have i 1 , also in the same manner and under similar cir cumstances, joined in games of Whist. Those 1 ' ! games, it is well known, and somo others, arc j I indulged in by gentlemen of the first respectabil , i v in every part of the Union, from (lie mansion 1 ol l lie President to the dwelling of toe Planter and are considered in no way criminal by those . i who make use of them as matters of amusement. , j I say no! this lo inculpate others with myself, • j ot to extenuate any fault or folly of mine, but to banish tho foul impression that nay character , j partakes of that of the gambler—an itnpieaslon i attempted to be made by a man who admits his | own profession lo be gambling, and through the j I columns of a paper, whose editor is inimical to i me. Further—since my residence in Augusta, 1 1 have never either dir oily or indirectly, bet a 1 single cent at Faro or Roulette ( nor have 1 ever ’ s en eilher of those games piny i.l in the city but ; twice, each time by chance, and only for a few m '.men's. I never did in the whole course of : i my life, win or loose, or bei to the amount ol I ~ t ventj dollars, at either id the games. If I had | . 1 ever done so, it would no doubt have been duly era bled forth e 'j ibe-s. tSomu.il lor n.y gambling! 1 did not .suppose that there was a paper j n !

Himuurg, hut tie columns are opened to a so 1 f confessed gambler, who had fled from the Slate to elude the penalties of its laws, to emit his filthy aspersions upon me, at a lime when [ was a ihousmd miles from home. The editor of that .paper has endeavored for a long lime to make it an organ of some parly nr somebody, and I congratulate him, after | many failures, up a his final success. I con ipr i dale him upon the attainment of the great object of his ambition, as the organ of the gatn j filer•, and commend 1, ,1 li their especial patron* Toe people of Augn-ta to r, will not fail to sec i,i tfi.s subrni. -i ’li of a press to become the . mouthpiece of gamblers, through which they : cm give vent to their malignity against all who incur their hatred, the near approach of n period i which must finally dcci !e whether iho cily is to i be governed by citizens pursuing lawful avoca j lions, or to become the fixed prey of harpies who j subsist by v,elation* of law and grasp at dominion by outrages upon the community. 1 -cca not, as intimated hv Glover, a mar’yr- I dom to this cause or any other; —my life hue j ii'.'cn sought and may fie again,—it may ho taken, I I but it so, I humbly trust that there will he enough ! j of vengeance awakened in the bosoms of the ; pcopV nl Augii'la to avenge my death, i cm respectfully, you.s, &c.

These peo* pie imagine that hy going to America they will be able to live without work, consequently they are preparing in shoals for emigration. Their gov ernment, however, is beginning to interfere, and it is said, will sutler none to depart who cannot give security for their passage home again, should they not find on the western continent the ciysi um they expect. Prussia and Belgium arc going to loggerheads about a small town called Venloo. The former threaten to occupy it. Leopold sends word to the garrison to defend it with bravery and loyally.
