IMPRESSIONS OF EUROPE. Nt'-IBER TW KNrV.-BY N. P- WILLIS. Mv rimm-inate called ■ dny or two* since on Gen. Bertrand, and yesterday he returned itu- visit, and spent an hour at onr lodgings.— r;„ miked of Napoleon with difficulty, and be- c.imo very much offerted when tny friund uiiicle some enquiries about the safety of the body hi St. Helena. The inquiry was sug- gtsied by noble notice we had seen in the pa pers of an attempt to rob the tomb of Waslt- ing'ori. The general said that the vault was fifteen feet deep, and covered by a slab that could not lie moi’ed without machinery. The mntd of the venerable old man is evidently giving way. f Jo has shown this often of late in ihe ( lumber of Deputies, of which he is a number. He told us that Madame I! or (rand had many mementos of Ihe emperor, which she would be happv to show us, and wo prom ised to \ isit. At a party, a night or two sinre, I fell into corn er* ilion with an English lady, who had I,v< il several years in Dublin, und was an in- finale friend of lady Morgan. She was ae. ei|c.,intnonly fine woman, both in appear ance hi d conversational powers, and told me litany anecdotes of the authoress, defending her from all the charges usually made against tier, except that of vanity, which slto allow'd. I received, on the »v!mle, the impression that l.ntly M-.s gondre*s ofltenrl nns more than an 11PJ*. t tA her rerlainly very innnronf weakness. My companion was much amused nf an Amer ican's asking oiler the “fender in Kildnro Street; ’ though she half withdrew her cordial ity when I told her I knew the countryman of nin e who wrote the account of Lady Morgnn, ufwhich she complains so bitterly in thn “ Honk ol Boudoir.’’ It was tins lady with win in the fair authoress “ dined in the Chaus• sc d'. Jii/rn,’’ so much tu Iter satisfaction. Wink- we were conversing, the lady’s liits- hacd came up, and finding I was an Ameri can. made some enquiries nlmut ihe progress of pherno/ogy on the other side of the water. I,ike most enthusiasts in (lie science, his own head was n remarkably beautiful one; nnd I •non found that he was thn Imsotn' friend of l)r. Spurzheim, to whom he bfTercd to intro- din-n me. We made an engngnmont for the next day. and the parly separated. Mv new acquaintance called on mo tho next morning, arcording to appointment, nnd we went together to Dr. Spurzhetm’s residence. Tim passage at the entrance tvas l*nrd with cases, in whirh aloud pluister casts of the heads of distinguished mm., orators, pools, musicians; each class on its particular shelf, ■nnknig altogether a most ghastly company. The d e-'or received my companion with great cordial tv, addressing Imn in French and clinti- gjiiu .,i very g.md German-English, when ho made nnv observation to me. Ho is a lull, large-honed man, and resembles Harding thn American nrtist, very strikingly. Jits head is Hindi marked, his features are bold, with ra ther i German look ; and Ins voire is particu larly winning, and changes in modulations in argument from tile deup, earnest tone of a man, to an nlmnst child-) kc softness. The com. rsntiuti soon turned upon America, nnd !!u- doctor expressed, in nnent terms, his de sire in visit the United Stales, nnd said he had tlmunhi of accomplishing it the coining sum mer He spoke of Dr. Clmnnuig, said he had read all his works with avidity end delight, end considered his one uf Ihe timsl oxpans vu l. inds ol the age. If Dr. Ch inning Itml not sir g developments of the oigans ol ideality nisi benevolence, lie said, he should doubt his thorny more than he had ever found reason to. lie knew Webster nnd Professor Stllimnn, by reputation; nnd sonmed In bo finniliar with nor country, as few m6n in Europe ore., One tia'cndly, on meeting n distinguished phrennl- i gwt, washes to have his own developments ; renounced upon; but I had been warned by mv friend, that Dr. Spurzheim refused such i xainmalions ns n general principle, not wish ing In deceive people, and unwilling to run the risk of offending them. After n half-hour’s i-mivi-rsalion, however, he canto across Ihe Vnunt, and putting his hands undor my thick ui.isso- of hair, felt my head closely a I over, and mentioned at onre n quality, which, right or wrong, has given n tendency to all my pur suits in life. As he knew ubsoluielv, nothing •>f me, nnd the gentleman who introduced mo know no more, I was n little startled. Thn Dr. tin-n requested me tu go through the opera tion of having ft east taken nf my head,an offer whirh was mo kind and rariieuinr to bo decli ned ; and, appointing an hour to be at his rooms the following day, we left him. 1 was there again at twelve the next mor ning after, and found De Potter Ihe Belgian yatHoi, and Dr. Bowring, with the phrenolo gist, xvaiting to undergo the same operation. 1 lie preparations looked very formidable. A frame of the length nf the human body, lay in the middle of the room, with a wooden bowl t" receive the head, a mattress, nnd a long «h.b dress to prevent stain to the clothes—• As I wna the youngest, I took my turn first.— It was very like ii preparation for being be headed. My neck was hared, my hair cut, and the lung white dreaa pul on. The back of the head is taken first; and I was only im mersed up to the care in the liquid pluister, •his was not very alarming. The second pari however, demanded more patience. My head was put once more into the stiffened mould of the first half, and as soon ns I could get my features composed I was ordered lo shut my -yes; my hair wna oiled-and laid smooth, and the liquid plainer poured over my mouth, ayes, and forehead, till I was cased complete- in stiffening mask. The imperial woe then poured on thickly, till the mask was two or three inches thick, and the voices of those ■landing over me were scarcely audible. 1 breathed prelly freely through ti,c two small orifices at my nose ; hut the dangerous experi- menfof Mademoiselle Snntag. who was near ly smothered in the sum operation, conic •croaa my mind rather virktiy; and it tome that the doctor handled the plaister, quite too ungingerly, when he came to mould about my nostrils. After a half hour's im prisonment, the plaister became sufficiently hardened, and the thread which was laid upon mv face was drawn through dividing the mask into two parts. It was then gradually retiiov. ed.pulliogverytenaciously upon my eye-lashes and eyo-hrows, and leaving all the cavities of my face filled with practicles of lime. The process is a tribute lo vanity, which one would not bo willing to pay very often. I looked on at Dr. Bowring’s incarceration with no great feeling of relief. It is rather worse to seo than to experience, 1 think.— The poet is a nervous man ; und as long as the muscles of his fare were visible, his lips, eyelids, and mouth wero quivering so violent that I scarcely believed it would bo possible to get an impression of (hem. He has a beautiful faco for a scholar—clear, well-cul, finished features, expressive of great purity of thought; nnd a forehead nf noble amplitude, white nnd polished aa marble. His hair is black nnd eutling, (indicating, in most cases, Dr. Spurzheim remarked, activity of mind,) and forms a classical relief to his handsome, temples. Altogether his head would look well in n picture—though his ordinary nod ungraceful dress, and quick, bustling manner, rather destroy the effect of it in society. Do Potter is one of Ihe noblest looking men I over saw. He is quite Laid, with a broad, ample majestic head, the very model of digni ty nnd intellect. Dr. Spurzheim considers his head one of tho most extraordinary lie has mol. Firmness is the great development of it* organs. Histone and manner are culm and very impressive, and his looks made for great occasions—a man stamped with thn su periority which others acknowledge when circumstances demand il. He employs him self in literary pursuits at Paris, nnd lias just published a pamphlet on “ the manner of con ducting n revolution, so- that no after-revolu tion shall ho necessary.” I have translated the title awkwardly, hut that is thn suhjact. I have had several long conversations with Dr. Spurzheim about America, and have at Inst obtninod his posilivo assurance that he would visit il. Ilegavo mo permission this morning to say, (what I am surn all lovers of knowledge will ho pleased lo hear,) that he should sail for New York in the course of the ensuing summer, and pasB a year nr moro in lecturing nnd travelling in the United Slates. S o is a mao to obtain the immediate confi- nee and respect of n people hko ours, of the highest moral worth, and the most enudid and open mind. I hope my dear M. aid F. that you will make our paper a vehicle for any in formation he muy wish to convey lo the pub lic ; and flint you nud all our friends will re ceive him with the warmth and respect duo lo his reputul'un and worth. If ho arrive in August, ns hu nnlicipntes, ho proposes to pass a month or so nl Now Haven, and then to proceed to Boston, to commence his tour in tho North. P. S. — As I shall leave Paris shortly, you mav expect hut one or two letters tnoro from this metropolis, i shall, however, as I extend my irnvels, find a grealcr variety of materials for mv future communications.

The Reform Bill has, through the firmness of Earl Grey, and the un bending integrity of the people of England, been pas sed, u ithdut alteration or amendment, triumphantly through the commillec of the whole in the House of Lords, mtu^re the’writhing* and contortions of the high Tory .majority of that body. They have been compelled to bow before the sovereign people, and lo yield that to them through necessity, which was denied from a want of patriotism and liberality. Tho success of Ihe Cslholic Bill s tew years since, we may consider as the first act of the great drama— the Reform Bill conies next, gathering splendor, and deep nod overpow ering interest,as it advances. That achieved, ive look next for tire denouement—the pros, trsiion of the hereditary peerage and the overthrow of the church hierachy. The flood of innovation is fast and irresistibly rolling in, and «ll lire power and the wealth of the nrisiocrncy w ill prove hot feeble barriers to its overwhelming influence. They resist, however, manfully, and with Wellington at iheir head, retreat in good order from post lo post, and seem determined to dispute and to die in the Insl ditch. The transactions of Ihe Inst few months in England, form n new and interesting era in the history oftliat old and renowned land. The king is seen driven by pub lic opinion into tho support of a hill, and pledging him- selflo ils sucres', directly ngninst the will of his “ no ble Peers!” We find his primp minister, Earl Grey, driven to the necessity of demanding of tils royal mas ter power to coerce the House of Lords, and lo force the bill through. Between tho threats of the aristoc racy tlmt surround Ins throne, and the clamors of the people who demand their rights at his hands, the mon- urclr wavers, and at length throws himself blindly on Ihe support end prott ttion nf his ancient friends, the high tory aristocracy—lie is deserted by the whigs, and the whole nation isthrown into anarchy and confusion! —Lord Wellington ia commissioned to form a new ad ministration-backed by the House of Peers, and en sconced in his own grunt military renown and popular* ity, lie sets about fulfilling the commands of his sove reign, and attempts to form a ministry against the in terests and the will nf tlm people, and what do wc be hold? Tho conqueror of Napoleon - the hero of Wa terloo—the proud soldier and the unbending aristocrat, driven to the mortifying necessity of acknowledging himself powerless and unable lo fulfil the wisliea of his august master! Earl Grey is restored, with full pow er to carry the Reform Bill, and the people of England triumph over the throne and their oppressor*—the aris tocracy of England. *g»> The Tariff and Dank DiUs.—The Tariff Bill, with amendments, lias passed the Senate, anil been sent buck to the House for concurrence. The amendments are all on the side of protection, which renders the bill iiiikIi more objectionable to the South than was the original. Il seeins to be very uncertain whether or not the (lease will concur, in which event Congress will most probably rise without having accomplished uny thing on this momentous subject. Thu Bnnk Bill, as wo learn from the last Waahingtnn Globe, has received the VF.TO of tire President! We have not yet examined his reusons fully, as set forth in (lie Globe, but understand from those who have, that they arn luiimtr d on the grounds both of its unronsti- liitionality nnd mexpedieney. Its has llins fulfilled the expectations of his friends, and added another bril liant plums to the chaplet of glory that encircles his head. „ -<3£>- Tliefollowing remaikswe extract from n speech de livered by Judge Reid ut Augusta. The Judge having received an appointing it in Florida from the President of the United Stall's, has left his native state; and nn his departure bequeathed to his fellow citizens the fol lowing good and wholesome advice, nn subjccta deeply interesting to every Georgian—we hope it will be retd and duly appreciated by rliem. “ But it is not my purpose tu mar the gene rous conviviality nf this meeting, by a further consideration of these ungracious subjects; permit me to dwell for a moment, upon Rome of Ihe benefits likely to result front a meeting of tho people of Georgia, through Iheir Repre sentatives, in tlte cnntcmplnltid Convention.— 1 say nothing of the great cause of Reduction nnd Reform, winch will nn doubt first occupy the attention nf what will .certainly he a most dignified and enlightened.assembly; there are other objects which will yrnss forward to claim their earnest regard, itnd among them I would mention as one ol chief interest—the present condition of the Judiciary of Georgia. We have eight Judicial Circuits—we have eight Judges—who, in talont, integrity and zeal, may not shrink IVom a comparison with the ablost Judicial officers of the other states of tho union, nnd yet, with all tho efforts of those honest and gifted men, well to administer the laws and make them uniform throughout Ihe Stale—there is—correctly speaking—no Law in Georgia! Believe me it is far from me, lo asperse the institutions of a Slate to whieh I owe u debt of gratitude never to bo rancel- led—but however salutary our Legislative en actments, however excellent the code that purports to secure liberty and right—that can not be called with propriety, the law of the land, which is the subject of a different applica tion and construction in the several Judicial Circuits into which the State is divided. In hia own appropriate sphere each Judge is su preme; he holds in his hands the issues of life and death, and properly and liberty depend upon his will; tho term of service ia limited to each, and the .consequence is, that thn de cisions of one Circuit are not the decisions of another—nay—the law of to day ia not the law nf to-morrow in Ihe same Judicial Circuit I What was the law as pronounced by our I VaL Ions, Montgomerys, llerriens, Earlys and 'IValkers, has not been the law of their succes sors—even while 1 am speaking, the rule of the northern portion of the State ia not the tula of the (Southern—the rule of the We»t is in opposition io that of the East. A man may be convicted of crime in the county of Chat ham, when under like circumstance* he would escape with impunity in Richmond;—a citizen of Richmond may be coerced to empty his purse and lo yield his possessions, in obedi ence to judgment* against him,when with like claims against others, judgments might not be ronderd in hitfaoour, in Baldwin or Muscogee- Why is it, that the people ofGeorgia—of Geor gia the most democratic Slate in tho Union —have submitted so long to a system as op pressive as it is despoticl-Unirormity and cer tainty enter into all definitions of municipal law —and surely that is no rule of general con duct which is ever fluctuating and changing, in its application to particular cases, with a more than weathercock versatility. It is certainly trub that in other States there are Circuit Courts and contradictory decisions; but then, there are higher and paramount tribunals by which erroneous, jarring and conflicting judg ments are corrected, reconciled and made uni form. By following their good example, and establishing A Court of Appeals, our lawq will no longer he, like those of Caligula, out of reach of the people nnd even of Ihe profession al advocate. Let tho Convention give uh a Court of Appeals, and the life, liberty and pro perty of Ihe Georgian will he secured by a pre scription, equally certain, uniform and safe.— The lawyer will then, no longer be obliged to confess that the proceedings of our halls of justice savor of the chances of a lottery—he will no longer say to his client—“ Your case depends upon the breath nf (ho presiding Judge, and hangs upon his iips!”—but turn ing to written decisions and to volumes of re ports—ho will be able to pronounce with clearness what the law is. Let Georgia be possessed of that invaluable treasure—an Ap pellate tribunal of last resort—and the law shall reign triumphantly, in uniform and sim ple majesty, from the Gold Region to the At lantic border—from the Savannah to the con fines of Florida!” FOH TUF. SOUTHERN DANNER. REPORT Of the board of ihe Jackson county Anti-In temperance Society, received and read at its Anniversary meeting at Jefferson, on the 4th of July, 1832. It being u duly assigned to your board of managers, to place before you at your annual meetings a report, embracing the progress your society may have marie the year past, and the benefits its influence may have effec ted on the community with which it stands immediately connected; tho following is re spectfully submitted, with an expression of re grot, that we have it not in our power to pre sent you with a detail more flattering, and re sults more accordant to our dosires : The ac cession of members has been forty seven both male and female, five have been expelled, fourteen have removed, one withdrawn, total number 132. Sixty-five males and sixty-se ven females. Although the increase of mem bers may not have fulfilled our anticipations nnd wishes, yet it is believed, that Ihe princi ple upon which the society is based, is advan cing, und that very many persons conform to its rules, who withhold their namos from ils list, for reasons which they honestly believe lobe substantial. If indeed the movements of the society of late, have uppenred to be re trograde, we are of the opinion tlmt it muy lie greatly attributed to a luck of effort in its mem bers. and especially the unaccountable remiss- ness recently witnessed irtattendingyourstated meetings; those meetings ought to be frequent and the members should bn prompt in attend ing them. It cannot be expected that when members manifest so little interest in the pros perity of the institution, B9 io absent them selves from its assemblages, that others who are lefcxnterested will be disposed to attend, hence its principles are less understood, nnd for want of a correct understanding of its de signs, persons are more susceptible of being improperly influenced by those xvho oppose and misrepresent your benevolent motive*. Sfrange as it may appear, it is nevertheless true, that an attempt has recently been made, to get up a counteracting socioty, that is, con demning the total abstinence system, and/e- cotninending and, encouraging the free but temperate uso of strong drink, ns if every drunkard was ant first found in Ihe tomperate ranks. Charity would induce us tu suppose a principle like this mYist proceed from want of our attention to tho subject, and for lack of sober and dispassionate investigation. VVe are not prepared to say, that the number of manufacturers or retailers have been curtailed, yet wo must believe that tho consumption of the article in our bounds is greatly diminish ed, perhaps a market is found for the surplus in the gold region und territory now settling west of us. In conclusion, permit us earnest ly to recommend to our fellow members to ex ercise vigilnnco and energy in promoting the interests of tho society, by disseminating all the information you may have it in your pow- ui to impart, and so far as you may be able, to circulate tracts nnd periodicals wherein the subject is held to public view; the case is an urgent one, thousands of our fellow beings ore annually drawn into the whirlpool of mtetnper- anco, and but very few comparatively ofsuch, ever return to the ranks of sobriety and use fulness. A striking demonstration of this fact, is exemplified in the history of this society ; no fewer than eight drunkards liavo enrolled iheir names on our list, and it is remarkable that notwithstanding their solemn pledgo to conform to its rules, they have to a man apostatized. Thi* circumstnnco ia noticed not with a view to discourago. but to exhibit to view thexdaoger of holding any commerce with the ensnaring und destructive onemy, and of enforcing the maxim of the celebrated Dr. Franklin, that an *• ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure.” There is no assurance of being safe we are per-maded, only upou the principle of total ab stinence. So long as there are temperate drinkers, there will be a drunken posse, this every man of common sense observation knows. We invite then, dear fellow citizens, your co-operation, that by our united effort and example (with the blessing of heaven) we may be able to expel from our highly favoured country this bane of society, this scourge of nations, ond deadly enemy uf the human race. Resohed, That this society will meet at Centre meeting house, on Saturday before the first Sunday in October next. At Sandy Creek, oo Saturday before the 4lh Sunday hr January. At Cabin creek, on Saturday be fore the fourth Sunday in April, and will hold its annual meeting in Jefferson on the 4th July. Resolved, That the foregoing report and- resolution bo printed in the Southern Banner. J. DAVIS, Secretary. FOR THE SOUTHERN DINNER. FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION AT WATKINSVILLE.
