High in (he mountain home, 'mid mists and
clouds
Columbia's Genius sat; in trailing crowds,
Around her iliroue, her chosen spirits were—
The winds thoir coursers, and their car Ibo air.
On either side were placed in fit array
The mystic symbols of her mighty sway:
The Eagle perched u;kmi her judgment scat.
The horn of plenty rested at her lect
in her right hand the olive branch she bore,
And on her spear the cap of freedom wore,
Hanged on her left were symbols of the strife-
The drum, the clarion trump and shullv fife;
Whilst o’er tne scene, upon that mountain cloud,
The starry banner floated fn e and | rood,
’Twas thus the Genius sat—when lo! in view,
A spirit messenger arrived, ami Hew
rtttatl to hia mistress* feel and there he said
Hia tale of carnage, wo and honor dread.
That tale he brought from the far Southern land,
Uprose the genius then—unit passion pale,
And wild with grief, she told this mounfnl talc
••Prom Tampa's wild and wave-worn shore,
And o'er that dreary dcaert-land,
There moved a , nail, hut gallant coips,
A dauntless ant) devoted band.
Onward they moved in linn array.
The savage wilderness lo thread—
Hangar' and death hewt the way,
Yet onward, onward, still they sped.
Within the leaders' breasts there burned
A flame of chivalry as bright
At ever tide of battle turned,
Or fried the soul of errant night.
The dc"Ay forma of savage foes,
Lurk'd round them a* they march'd by day.
And round them num'rous night-fires rose;
When darkness cheered their weary way.
The Witblacoochcc now is pass'd—
The tangled hammocks dense and dark—
Each heart throbs high, each pulse heals fa-t
Fort King must soon be reach'd. Hark I hark I
A r tie’s shrilly crack is there,
And then a long-drawn piercing yell
t'ame thrilling on the fore st air,
Lika shriek of tortured fiend from hell,
One moment more—and rifles (Hash'd
a Brom out the grass—fiom ev’ry pine,
The gallant Hade (lia charger dash'd
Fast lo the front, and chcerVl hia line,
Another moment and he's down, —
Ti»" charger and the chief ate slain •,
And messengers ol death Hew round,
.'; Fast as fall storms of summer rain.
Now furious grew the dcsp'raio fight,
And well each soldier made hia stand—
Oh ! it waa a great mid glorious sight,
The prowess of that little haml. I
They waver'd not,|though counties* foes
Their deadly Arc upon them pour'd;
They waver'd not, though round them rose
The fiendish yells of that Wilde horde ;
Rut reckless ol the battle’s storm
The bullet-shower that round them fell.—
Though ev’ry tree had found its form—
Its dusky form and savage yell,—
They hurl'd defiance baA again.
In echoiiiing thunders of the flight’,
(lb! they were hold and dcsjieruto men,
Whom loos might slay, hut could not fiiight.
And well they aim'd their answering fire
Upon the savage monsters there;
Hurrah! they (eel it and retire—
And wav’ring now the tod men ate;
Hurrah! hurrah! on cv’iy side—
Th«« IndiaitMncn their fires stick,
Nurrahl ’lia changed—that battle's lid'—
The savages arefallina hack.
Hear waa that triumph a« 'twas vain,
And short-lived, 100, as it was dear.—
f’wo-tliirds of the small force were slain.—
Again the savages appear.
And ragging now in circle wide,
The heathen monsters take their stand,
Ami pour their fires from cv.ey side
Upon that little wasted hand,
Whe still undaunted keep their ground.
Though Iheiu their ranks, their meant to slight,
Fenced with imperfect hull works round—
Yet still they join lh' unequal light'
‘•Where were thy holla, great God of Heaven?
Why Hew they not lo save the hra.ol
Were not thine armed angels given
The task that little hand to save!
Oh! were (bey not commissioned then
To execute thy vengeance dire
Upon those wild and heathen merit—
To seat lie them with thy lightning lire!
Ala-! alad no aid came nigh.
And hope from man or Heaven was past;
Unvanquished still those freemen die,
Defiance breathing to the last
•Tis done—the last sail act is o’er
Which closed that bloody tragedy;
Hut to the last each soldier bora
The liearingoftho hru'O and free.”
The Genius ceased—and solemn was the wail
With which hn minions chorus'd that sad tale;
Wild were their answering cries of grief and wo,
Aad deep toned wan their sympathetic glow.
Again the genius rais'd her hand on high—
Weak was her voiee and tear ful was fie- rye :
Go pluck that flaunting banner down," she said,
‘•And should its folks in sables of the dead ;
rttrrke the deep drum in numbers sail and slaw,
And let the fife's shrill note* accordant (fijw ;

a series of tales which llie manor proposes
to lay before lire public, under the title id
‘‘Agrarian Stories," intended to illustrate tire

before us is simple and touching.—Tire follow

In Ihe procession were 000 children of the

“The Maycnco printers wore followed by a

principle of llngnrd, and ftn apparatus for

Duke ot Cambridge, and a brilliant stuff—al

] INAUGURAL ADDRESS.
IT;li.ovv-Ci n/.uvs —Before I cuter upon the
, duties of llie office lo which I have been called by
your favorable opinion, I nnist avail myself of the
, present opportunity to express lo you the deep
*oiiso of gratitude I foci for ibis renewed proof of
your renewed confidence.
Whilst 1 urn very sensible of tiro high honor
. done me, llu importance of the trust you have
confided in me, I came t but feel the weight of re
sponsibilily which it brings with it, and my inai
bilily lo stive the stale to Jibe extent of its wants
1 and my own widie*. It is some relief, however,
■ from the eeasciousnera of my deficiencies,
1 that the office lias been conferred, not assumed,
nor sought for; thill in the canvass, I led the elcer
’ lion to the free arid unbiased sulfragess “of the
people; that I excited no expectations, alarmed
no fears, made no promises, and shall enter
office without incurring any obligations, but in
, accordance with the pulilio will, and the require
ments of the sol mnt oath I am about lo take.
In conferring office, I shall select from
) those whoso services I can connntnd, the
. best qualified to do what the law requires.
I‘lacing ll e greatest value upon Iho fruo.lom
r of political opinions tnys If, 1 shall endeavor
i to do justice to others who may dilll r from
me. Those who have sought Iho ad of party
power lo procure office, by ejecting fiiitld'ul
incumbents, can scarcely expoip to escape the
a application of iho same tule ol conduct to
1 themselves.
t l 1 believe il lo bo important to perfect our
f tv.’to i.isliuitioui by reforming the Constitu
tion, kimjdilyin'J ooJ rendering certain the
1 law a, improving the friOdo of their adminis-
I tra’ion, making lliC'rexecuC'Ul efficient, and
i conocling the dallels of out systd.") Ot p.iblic
t eJn.-utioii.
, The rajrid sctllcnjcnl of tiro ClidOkt-i
' country, the übumhnco of i s iron, lime and
1 marble, Iho fertility of its sod m producing
i grain and tobacco, and its distance Irom nav
> igution, havo created now and strong induce-
ntonts to the Stale, for uv.td.ng its sis of the
I improvements which are constantly making
in the construction of lailroads, to dovelopo
the great rusuuracs of that portion of it, liy
1 increasing the facilities lor currying its heavy
t productions lo market.
’The extraordinary assumption on the part
of the late president of the United Slates,
in taking Iho control of these finances Irom
i Congress; Ins policy in their management;
the vast increase of the expenditures of the
1 General Government; iho derangement of
• the currency; the stoppage of specie payments
» by the banks; and iho embarrassment ol all
concerned in rtadu, I consider matters of
groat mid pressing importance to the people,
and demanding their most decided control
1 over the operations of their government.
Whilst J belivc that the Batiks ofthis Slate
- did what was useful to the commtmi'y.in stop,
t ping spiKuo payments, and that they should
be exempted from all penalties for so doing,
I believe also that the Legislature should se
cure the continuance of the present confidence
! n those institutions, by compelling them to
i resume specie payments as soon us the state
ot commerce and its exchanges will permit.
I believe it to be our highest political duty, 1
lo retain the organization of the Government
m the form which our tbrefarthers gave it;
limiting the United States to legislatio j upon
, the general subjects specified in the Constilu
[ 'ion. and preserving unimpaired the rights of
the States and Ihe people. Our peculiar do.
mestic relations, slave-labor, and its pioduc
lions, render tins duty imperative upon the
Southern people. These interests arc incon
stant danger of being sacr.ficed to selfish cu
pidity or the zeal ol fanaticism, and being rep.
resented in the .foncral Government by a mi
nority, as they always will be, can only be
protected by unceasing vigilance. Ought we
lo be the readiest lo strengthen tho bands of
llie majority by exciting alams lor lire Union
whenever tiro spirit ot resistance is shown to
the encroachments ol power? The majority
cun always take care of themselves. Tlioy
wtjl do more; they will, if not prevented,ren
der the joeculiar interests of (he minority ..üb

We, the Grand Jurors in the minority, pre
sent it as a grievance of no ordinary magnitude,
) that Ihc laws of the State afford and give protec
tion lo a certain class of men styled Steam Doctors
under the Thomsonian system, much to the injury
and jeopardy of the lives ol many good citizens.
Their deep ignorance of the diseases attending
the Unman frame, makes them altogether unfit lo
ho countenanced by tho good people of Georgia.
, We therefore rcuucst our Senator and Ke,<resen
tulives to make it a penal offence for practicing

It is confidently believed that no similar establish- «
meat in Ike Southern fcilatct combines so many ud- t
vantages, tdtunted on a bold and rapid stream run- I
nmg amidst sand itiljs, it is entirely exempt from \
tit* lever's ol llie country The supply of water, at r
all seasons of the year, is suHictetu to impel ten t
times the existing machinery. The house is 100 a
loot long, forty w ide, and five stories high; built of
solid granite, oi w hich there is an inexhaustible r
quarry in thirty yards of it. There are in operation ii
1056 throstles, 600 mule spindles, 120 wool spindles, v
36 looms, two dressers, and ail the other machinery a
requisite so keep those m motion. The tract of land v
contains 1200 acres, abounding in the finest kind ol d
pine timber, with several fine springs of pure w-ater, c
unequalled ttj the Slate, and there is a saw mill upon 1
", capable ol supplying all the wants of the com- h
puny in extending their buildings; also a gristmill, c
Vaucluse is 14 miles (rom Augusta, Ga., 6 mijes n
from Aiken, S. C., 16 miles from Edgefield Court it
House, S. C., and 41 miles from the Charleston and e
Hamburg Kail Road The proximity to Augusta o
renders it unnecessary lo keep a considerable mac.
live capital invested in raw cotton, as a weekly sup- v
ply can be certainly, and at all times, obtained at titir P
pices. (
In the hands of a man who understands the man e
ulacturiug business, and would pt'rsonally attend lo r
it, this Factory would be a splendid fortune. And if o
there be any desirous of purchasing this dc- 0
