Qufibtune is a rich blood-bay, with black legs, mane and tail, fifteen hands, three inches high, six years old next spring, of fine action, bone and hair. Quidnunc has been purchased at Baltimore, on high recommendation, with a view to improve the etoek of Southern horaee. His high origin justifies the expec tation that this object may be uceomplisl.ed. He wie gotten by the full blooded imported Arabian Bagdad, (who was sold in New York for $8,000,) out of the famous thorough bred mare Ron Carey, by Sir Archy —Rosa’s dam was Sally Jonas, by the imported Wrangler—be by Diomed, sire of Sir Archy—having two direct croases of the Archy blood with thorough Arabian blood. Hia pedigree is not only fast rule, but authentic. See American Turf Register, Nov. 1831, page 152. It la presumed that Quidnunc has tha es sential properties of a racer—for he was entered for the “ Maryland Stallion sweep stakes," against all stallions {n that state; and no entry was made against him; (set American Turf Register, Dec. 1831, p 105,)—and he was add nut of training by P.

PRESENTMENTS OF THE Grand Jury of Jackson Comity, \ August Term, 1832. llTE the Grand Jure selected and sworn for the coun- f 7 ty of Jackson, having disposed of all the ordina ry business which devolved upon them, believe it to be tneir duty and si well their right, to express tbeir senti ments on matters of public importance to tho country, S resent as a grievance, tho abolition of thq Penitentiary ystem at the last session of the Legislature. Tho man agement of the vicious and ill disposed portion of commu nity, has been the anxious object of attainment among all governments. But haman laws as yet have ever proved inadequate to the entirs prevention of enmes. It should be tho object of all Legislatures, never to transcend the bounds and limits of reason and humanity by inflicting punishments diaproportionato to thc.crinics to which they arc annexed. It is not pretended that the Penitentiary System prevents to any very considerable extent, more than the present system of laws, the commission uf crimes; but confinement at hard labor is certainly mare in ac cordance with tho spirit and reason of this enlightened age, and the dictates of humanity and philanthropy, than the barbarous and heathen systen) of branding, and crop- K ind whipping the freemen of the land iiko cattle aves. It is absurd too; to affix the punishment of death to so many small oflcnccs, because tho punishment is greater than toe crime. Government should bo ever cautious in assuming and excrcisijg the high prerogative of shedding human blood, and arnsting human life. It is betterto confine criminals whosi crimes are too great to be passed over lightly, and yet loo small to deserve the lost punishment winch nature cqnbcar, and thereby take away the power far a season of committing crimes, than to let their blood rest upon the c entry, by consigning them to a hasty and ignominious death. It is said by good authority, that tho vilest sinn ir may return; so may flic vilest culprit reform, and there is no 'method of punish* ment that has cvcr 'yct been devised, which more assur edly conduces to that reflection and solemn meditation, wluch is always necessary to produce a thorough convic tion of error, and a true and gonuino repentance there from, than moderate and steady labor by day, and close and solitary confinement by night; which is the plan now adopted in the penitentiary of the State. On the scoro of expense, wo are of opinion that the aggregate amount of money which will have to bo paid by all the counties in the State, for the confinement of criminals in the county jails, will bo much greater than tho amount of appropria tions by tho Legislature for the support of tho Penitentia ry. Besides the expenses of the institution, arc gradually lessening under improved plans of management and op eration, and the probability is strong and brightening, that the labour ofthe convicts will supn defray all the in cident attendant expenses, and cease to be a burthen to tho State. In every other State in which tho experiment has been tried except in Georgia, the most beneficial re sults have been produced, and in many of the States, tho Penitentiaries, instead of being a tax and a burthen, arc sources of considerable revenuo. This then, is conclu sive proof Hint in tho matter of expenses, the fault docs not rest in the system itself, but in its improper and de fective management and execution.

Many of tho punishments now affixed to crimes arc un known to our Magistrates and Lawyers; others rest in the breast of our Judges; and tho whole of them aro scat tered in tho chaos and confusion nf obsolcto and antiqua ted laws, and liave to bo gathered therefrom by long and laborious legal research and investigation, which still leaves somo of them in perplexity and doubt In making this presentmontofour views, wo would not impugn tho motives of tho majority of tho last Legislature that abolished the system. But believe that they voted in accordance with tho wishes of a majority of their constitu ents. But after experiencing the practical operation of tho old law, public opinion has been changed, and that it would now favor the ro-cstablishmcnt of the late Penal Coda.

We recommend to our fellow-citizens to meet on the first Monday in November next, to elect three delegates to a Convention, to reduce tho number of members in the Legislature to be held at Milledgeville on tho first Mon day in February next, in conformity to tho recommenda tion of tho preliminary convention which assembled in May last.

We therefore recommend the subject to the consideration of tho next Legislature, that the defect may bo cured. in thus performing tho lost duties required of our body at the present term, wo would express our entire appro bation ofthe official labors of his Honor Judge Dougherty, and tender him our thanks for his politeness and atten tion to this body.

Gentlemen,-! ihnttk you sincerely fur your kind and cnmmendnlory communication, “ of the approbation nf my follow citizen*, of my conduct as a Rcpresentniivn tn tho Congress of (he United States.” My efforts havo been directed to deserve the confidence of all my constituents, hut it portion of them having mis npprithmided lint reasons and molivns which induced mo 10 vote for the ” act in alter and amend the several nets imposing duties upon imports”—the approval of that vole by my I'd- low-citizens of Chatham, Incomes the more acceptable, and culls for my warmest grati tude. Given ns it has been, by a community liuving an enlightened apprehension of the interests of our county and our stHto, conver sant with their politicnl condition and connex ion, and with the best means of preserving them in unimpaired efficiency for posterity— sensitive of south' rn honor and of southern rights, and which have had for more than a generation, an uninterrupted association with the democracy of tho nation, the approbation of my fellow-citizens ofChatlium, will beroceiv. ed now, and ut nil limns, as it timely tcsliinoniiil to shield my public course from'misconception. I feel the favor, and its effect upon myself shall be the industrious application of my time, nnd such ability as I tnav hove, or ahull ac quire, to the public service. You are right, Gentlemen,in saying, that the vote which you commend, exhibits attachment to the Union and my opposition to the protec tive system. 1 knew there was among our selves a justifiable excitement against it, and that we had complained and remonstrated, a people and a sovereign 8tnte, that tho system wus unconstitutional, and unjust in its opera* lions; I knew also, if tho Inst session of Con gress should he terminated without any modifi- cation of tho Tariff, iu tome of those particu- lots, which b»re most henv.lv upon the planta tion states, and without nn alteration to gradu ate future revenue to the most economical anticipation of national wants—to what extent the rxcitement already existing in Georgia might be inflamed in the bosom of a warm hearted and patriotic people, operated upon by the recollections of unrequited forbearance, and stimulated by the artifi. es of an external ambition, industriously seeking, and'whicb bee been long coniriving to convert the common sufferings of several States in one particulelr —without a single other community of princi ple, which Georgians believe should limit the powers and legislation of (ho Genorat Govor- inent—into ono political union party, for more remote ends than the redress of Southern grie vances. And this too—if lit* longings of that, ambition shall have only indefinite hopes of gratification—without regarding ihe desper- nteness of the remedy it shall propose for Southern wrongs,the permanent impress it (nay make upon our constitution and upon Ihe char* actor of our people, and its embarrassing effect^ upon an administration, which is with us, avow edly in the principle of reducing our impost revenue into an entire equality of effect upon all interests; and An admi.iistrntiuo, c» which Georgia is already more indebted, and te to be still further—more indebted, than to dttf other, since the foundation of Our Govern ment. In tho existing state of things, I could sen no courso as efficient to prevent the con- sequences to which I havo alluded, so prudent and fitted to advance the political and pecunia ry interest of (ioorgta, as that of voting for tho lesser of two ovila, containing it is true, tho protretivo principle, but against my-consent. and efforts—which (orever repealed the Tariff act of lS29-abolished the system of minimum* as rule of universal application for the protec-' lion of manufactures, it boing retained but in o' single instance, nnd in that, without either the expectation or hope of the opposers of free' trade that it will ho permanent—which reduces general taxation seven millions—lessens tho duties upon the protected articles and of south ern consumption, three millions of dollars, and by which the groat democratic principle con tended for by Jefferson and hia coadjutors, forty years since, of bringing down national revenue to Ihe actual requirements of national wants, has boon unalterably acknowledged. 1 did not vote for the act of 1832, either a8 compromise or adequate concessions of reduc tions of our imposts upon foreign merchandize. The first, constitutional obligation and opposi tion to the protective policy forbado, the other does not comprehend reduction enough in ma ny particulars to establish equal taxation be-, twuen the South, the Wear and the North, and' still much ngtiinsi tho South. Repeatedly du ring the discussion 1 protested against the' principle and the details of Ihe bill—protested against either being considered the settled pol icy, and stand pledged by my declaration to wugo a ceaseless warfare against both,' until the one shall ho expunged from our legislation,' und duties shall be HNsesayd by rales operating titirly upon all interests, and not giving any sectional advantage. Gentlemen—I conscientiously believe, that the only allowable protection which can be. given to manufactures, by Ihe legislation of Congress, is tlmt which shall be incidental from. a fair revenuo impost. I believe ull Ihe Tariff ucis inclusive of that of 1810, havo been unfair legislation in favor uf tlje West end North against the planlstion Slates. And that they should with a common energy and commotr design piislt by constitutional means, the advan tages which have been obtained and which aro favoured by tho condition in which the na tion will be, by an entire freedom from debt, into a retributive triumph of their constitutional principles and violated rights. Others and thusa for whom I have, even affection, do not look upon the prospect ss cheeringly as I dog but I think and have acted in company through out with a large majority of Southern poli ticians, who are distinguished, talented, and as determined in opposition to the protective) principle ns any one, ond oil of the small mi nority from the South who voted against the' bill of 1832. Our efforts against it are not'to cease, but we think, the first duty of an almost holy patriotism, is never to despair of the Re public. I beg you, Gentlemen, to allow mb to de cline the honor of the dinnor to which you have invited me. In the present condition of our community, with pestilence hanging over our land and the near approach of that season when we are most liable to disease, we ere admonished to avoid ull crowded meetings end' festivities except such u meeting as the rad- mentous crisis, in the affairs of our beloved' country may call upon our patriotism to con vene. Should one be held, there will I bo with my fellow-citizens of Chatham, to join in their counsels, and to take upon myself that' portion of responsibility which the nedtsion imperiously urges evory citizen to assume- With great regard for each of you, I aat, gentlemen, verv respectfully your obdt. scrvL ’ JAMES M.
