jCjp We wish some friend would favor us with an
account of the examinations now progressing at our
different literary institutions. It would no doubt be
interesting to many, if not a!! of our readers, and ad
vantageous to our town and tho public. The display
of Mrs. Walthol’s pupilron Monday evening, baa been
seldom equalled, and we will venture an opinion, that
there are other branches of education besides music,
which they have creditably cultivated.
Gov. Lumpkin has issued his proclamation an
nouncing the election to Congress of Messrs. Wayne,
Wilde, Gilmer, Clayton, Foster, Gamble, Jones, Schley
and Coffee. The term of service of these gentlemen
commence on the 4th of ' arch next.

Dr. Henry Branham.—In another column of our pa
per of to-day, will be found the correspondence be
tween this gentleman and F.dward Corey, F.sq. of
Milledgeville. On the subject matter of this corres
pondence. Dr. Branham has received, at the hands of
a few disaffected individuals, who claim to belong to
the Troup party,very great injustice. It was necessa
ry to these individuals, in order to make room for a
man having no claims whatever on the Troup party-
one who lias ever been tho mere tool of John C. Fa!
houn—a cast off of his own (and never deserving the
confidence of any) party—we mean Daniel Newnan,—
that some one of the regularly nominated Troup ticket,
should be sacrificed ; and this old and faithful servant
of the people—this able advocate of State Rights, and
of the ioterests of the party to which he is attached,
was the individual for the purpose selected ! Those
who got up the notoriously celebrated ticket signed
«• Harris,” and who had to squeeze it through I he public
press by the aid of that high pressure engine called
money, for the purpose of electing the notorious Dan
iel Netcnan over Henri Branham, have acquired for
themselves a distinction, that will always keep their
“ names green in the memory” ot every honorable and
genuine member of the Troup party.
evils, and should wc nut have regard enough for our
interest, to do the same ? They wish on the one hand
to avoid the Seylla, Barbour, that stares them in the
face, and should we not strive to steer clear of the
Charybdis, Sergeant, which threatens to strand us on
the other? We repeat it, a majority of the Jackson
party will never vote for Mr. Barbour. Then is it wise
for the balance to expend idly their energies on I im—
to sport and dally with their best interest—whilst the
enemy is up and actively engaged in taking the advan
tage of tricir divisions and dissentions ? No, let the
South wake up—let us meet our Tariff, Jackson friends,
who at least agree with us on one subject—the support
of his administration on this half way ground, and for
the success of the great and good cause—Republican
ism and State Rights—which now hang in suspense
over the result of the ensuing election, make common
cause with them ; and in the triumph of Jackson and
Van Burf.n, we shall have little to regret—but much
of the spoils of victory to rejoice over.
own bosom, after which he may be enabled to speak,
without blushing, the truth and the whole truth—al
though Devils may be shamed thereby.
Mr. Van Buren.—We lay before our readers, in our
pt per of to-day, with much pleasure, this gentleman’s
answer to the North Carolina Committee ; in which
they will find a clear, candid and succinct declaration
of hia opinions on the great questions that now divide
and agitate the country from the Lakes of the North
to the Gulph of the South, viz: the Tariff, Internal Im
provements, the Bank of the United States, and Nulli
fication. We say wc do this with much pleasure, not
because we coincide with Mr. Van Buren in his views
on all those interesting subjects, but because his letter
wilt disabuse the public mind on many of those points
which have been perverted, and handled by his ene
mies at tho South, and to the injnry of General Jack-
eon, with whom he has become so inti nately connec
ted, that the cause of the one is, or ought to be, consi
dered the cause of the other.
The Clark party in this State have opposed Mr.
Van Buren, wc conceive, from motives which ought to
be entirely beneath the consideration of a party having
any claims whatever to respectability. Mr. Van Bu
ren it is true was, in times past, a warm friend and
supporter of Wm. H. Crawford—hut is it not equally
true that he is now the admirer, the friend and sup
porter of Gen. Jackson? It would seem to us that the
position in which Mr. Van Buren is now placed, with
regard to the Administration and General Jackson,
ought at least to claim from “ his old and original
friends” in Georgia, forgiveness for the sin (if ain they
will have it) of his former support of Mr. Crawford.—
We arc compelled to believe that it is more from feel
ings which arise out of reminiscences of past transac
lions, than to just calculations of those that are now
transpiring, arises the opposition which is exerted by
this party to Mr. Van Boren’s election. The Federal
Union, tho organ of tho Clark party, has pretended
heretofore to oppose Mr. Van Buren on the ground
alone of his ultra Tariff principles. Will the editors of
that print now have tho goodness to let their readers
know in whnt they diffor from the views, on this sub
ject, laid down by Mr. Van Buren, in the letter under
consideration? Mr. Van Buren believes Congress has
the right constitutionally to 11 establish commercial re
gulations, with a view to the encouragement of do
mestic products”—has the Federal Union ever contro
verted this position? Mr. Van Buren believes further,
ih&Uhis tight “ should never be exercised with an op
pressive inequality upon any portion of our citizens, or
for the advantage of one section of the Union at the
tho expense of another,” and further that the Tariff*
ahould be so modified as to produce a “ reduction of
the revenue to the wants of the Government,” which
we presume tho Federal Union will hardly deny—co
inciding, then, as do Mr. Van Buren and the editors of
the Federal Union, in their sentiments on this subject,
we hope to hear no more from them about Mr. Van
Buren being the ** main pillar of the Tariff!”
It is true Mr. Van Buren differs with the Federal
Union on the subject of the U. States’ Bank—ah, this
is the rub! but inasmuch as he is, on this subject with
nine tenths of the people of Georgia, perfectly ortho
dox, wc presume tho heterodoxy of the Federal Union
will not be actively exerted, on this ground, to impede
his march to the Vice Presidential chair. And on the
subject of Internal Improvements by tho General Go
vernment Mr. Van Buren goes nearly the whole amount
with the South. Then why oppose his election ? Why
allow a mere shadow of difference on one or two iso
latcd questions of policy,to jeopardize the great cause of
Gen. Jackson’s re-election, and ensure the success of
that •* full blooded American System” man, John Ser
geant ? It does seem to us to be folly the most suici
dal, under present circumstances, for any part of the
South to support Mr, Barbour. It may be that this
genticman’s sentiments on the subject of the Tariff har
monize with the views and feelings of ihe South to a
much greater degree than do Mr. Van Buren’s. But
how will stand the case when the South is called to
ait in judgment between Van Buren and Sergeant ?
Between these two gentlemen she will have at Iasi to
choose, for we pronounce (and for reasons assigned be
low) Mr. Barbour’s chance entirely desperate.
It will be recollected that a majority of ihe friends of
Gen. Jackson belong to the Tariff party; and although
they are willing to concede so much to the balance as
to eupport Mr. Van Buren, yet, they can never be
brought to support Mr. Barbour—they will certainly
support Vlr. Sergeant in preference, should the contest
eventually fall between them—because he is with them
heart and hand on the subject of their favorite Ameri
can System, and the other vice versa. This portion of
the friends of General Jackson are willing to meet us
on a halfway ground—they are willing to join ua in the
support of Van Buren, a moderate Tariff man; and
should we be so far outdone in liberality, as to refuse,
for the good of the party, to make the aame aacrificc ?
They are willing to take Mr. Van Buren as a choice of

Parties in South Carolina.— It will he seen by the fill-
lowing resolutions, unanimously adopted by the 44 Uni
on Party” at a meeting held at Seyle’s after their late
defeat in Charleston, that they arc as little disposed to
submit to the threatened misrule of til cMdlifiers at Co
lumbia, as the NuUifiers arc to submit to that of the Ta
riff party at Washington City, and that they are asde
termmed to nullify an act of Nullification by the Nullify
ing. os that party is to nidlify the Tariff iaws of the
General Government.
Wo should like to know when and where this Nulli
fication and Nullifying of Notification is to end ?
Whereas, wo are citizens of (liu United
States of America—a freoi sovereign, inde
pendent and powerful nation, recognised and
respected by every civilized peoplo on the
Globe; and whereas, otir nllecinnce to these
United Stales is immediate and direct, and of
the most snered obligation ; and, whereas, the
doctrine of Nullification is an unconstitutional
political heresy, supported only hv u party in
this Stale; and, whereas, tho Union of (lie
Slates is regarded by iis as tho source of our
nntiori'il existence, of our present unexnm
pled freedom, prosperity und greatness, and as
the best, if not the only safeguard of our lib
ortics
It is therefore Resolved, that the Union party
of St. Philip and St. Mitchell, will lie firm in
their allegiance to the United States, and will,
by all legal and constitutional means, resist
any art of nullification.
Resolved, Tlml consistently with these prin
ciples, we will not in any manner directly or
indirectly sanction an art of nullification, ei
ther by the convention nr the Legislature, and
that wc will not offr any member of our party
ns a Candidate fur the Convention.

The American Revivalist.—This is the name of a pa
per printed weekly at Rochester, New York, purport
ing to be religious and devoted to the dissemination of
truth and righteousness on earth. Two or three num
bers of it have been sent to us, we presume, for the pur
pose of soliciting an exchange—we beg to be excused
reciprocating the favor, at least until the “ Revivalist”
becomes 4 ' awakened” himself sufficiently to appreci
ate tho value of honesty and fair dealing. This misna
med Revivalist, with others of the same kidney in the
same section of country, has been engaged for years in
the “ holy cause” of slandering Georgia on »he subject
of her relations with the “dear” Cherokees. And we
observe in a late number, the editor in attempting to
give publicity to the term* lately proposed by the Presi
dent for their removal West of the Mississippi, with,
holds entirely the six last articles in which are contain
ed the most liberal propositions. In our last paper will
he found the whole of the article which, for (< philan

proper to publish only in part. We hope the 44 Revi-
valiit” will hereafter 41 revive” the good work in his
United States* Senator for Tennessee.—After thirty
unsuccessful ballotings the Legislature of Tennessee
has postponed the choice of a Senator in Congress un
til tho next session of the General Assembly of that
State. On the first ballot, the vote stood thus: Foster
23 Grundv 22—Eaton 15. There was little variation
during the course of the ballotings. and the last one
was, Foster 22—Grundy 20—Eaton 18.— Ibid,
fin the United States, tho population of which is 13,-
000,000, there arc about 1000 now’spapers published—
a greater numbor than in nil Enrope, the population of
which is 190 millions! There aro about 50 daily pa
pers in the United States, and in the State of New York
alone, 1G3 newspapers exclusive of religious journals.
The Legislature of Alabama has been ordered to con
vene on the first Monday of this month for the pur
pose ofaltcring the Electoral Law.
Mr. Rives, our Minister in France, was to embark in
the Sully, for New York, on the 1st of October.
Health of the City.—The several days of cold weather
we experienced last week, very much chocked the
yellow lever, and, no doubt, has prevented it, so far,
from becoming epidemic. Some few cases may still
exist, but we have heard of no new ones ; nor can wc
learn that any of our town citizens are taken with it.
The last week exhibits n less number of deaths than
the preceding.—A*. O. Argus, Oth ult.
Mammoth Steamer.—A steam vessel was launched on
the 18th ult. at Elizabethtown,Pa. near Pittsburg, said
to he tho largest on the western waters. She has 173
feet keel, and will carry 800 lon3 besides engine, wood
and furniture, &c. which will probably swell the ton
nage to one thousand. Her cabins, when thrown to
gether by opening the folding doors, will measure I
feet in length. She is to he propelled by an engine
250 horses power, and is destined to run between New
Orleans and Louisville.
Tho living skeleton, Calvin Edson, has at length
operated. Hodied a few days since at his residence
in Vermont of Vabet Mcsenterica, as it is said. The

“ Bank Robbery.—$5,000 Reward.—The Offico of the
North Western Bank of Virginia was entered on tho
night of the 2d inst. by some villains, and from 60,000 to
70,000 dollars in Bank Notes, stolen; about $25,000 in
United States paper, the remainder principally in notes
of the neighboring Banks.
The above reward will be paid for the apprehension
of the Robbers and I he recovery of tho money, or a pro-
portionable reward for the amount recovered.”

A young dentist of Charleston, we see by the Mer

TO THE PUBLIC.
f llAVE heretofore declined making any public
statement in regard to iny connexion with the
Bank of Macon, and did intend to have remained silent
on that subject until tho meeting of the Legislature,
when it was my intention to solicit the appointment of
a committee from that body to examine into its affairs,'
and report the cause of its failure. But learning that
various, false, und malicious rumors are in circulation,
in different parts of the country, which arc calculated
»o do me great injustice, I have deemed it proper and
dun to myselfihus publicly to correct them.
One charge that I understand has gained some cur
rency in the country, is, I lint there arc large amounts
of the Bills of the Bank of Macon in circulation that
does not appear on the Books of the Bank. To this,!
presume, it wilt fee sufficient to say, that if there is one
Bill, or any amount of Bills, bearing my signature as
Cashier, or issued while I was in that office, that done
not appear fairly set forth on the Books of the Bank,
the holders or owners thereof may consider me and my
securities liable and bound for their redemption am)
they shall he promptly paid on presentation ; and that
every man may sec whether his Bills have been proper
ly entered or not, 1 suggest that the Register of the
Bills regularly issued by the Bank bo deposited in
some public office where every Bill holder may call and
examine for himself. But they wilt find none such in
circulation.
One other charge is, that I have sold, mad? over and
passed out of my possession all my property, with a
view of evading or securing it from any liabilities that
might he created against me on account of the Bank.
To this, I can give a flat contradiction. I have not on
that account, sold one dollar’s worth of any thing. I
have now us much as I ever possessed, which is entire*
ly free from any incumbrance whatever; and I have
nothing more than the fair proceeds of an honorable
business. All I possess is subject and will remain so,
to any claims that can be established against moon ac
count of the Bank or any thing else. And I myself
am at iny place, and have been, und shall continue to
be, ready to bo found at any time, by any person, or
upon any occasion.
I resigned the office of Cashier of the Bank of Macon
the month of February last, since which time I have
had no connexion, agency, influence, or control of iis
affairs, I then considered its billn perfectly good, and
its means were such as to justify that belief—that every
thing belonging to the Bank was fairly turned over by
inc to my successor, L. Atkinson, Kvq. will be seen by
reference to his receipt, a copy of which is here annex
ed, and a lief of the papers then running to maturity in
the Bank can be seen at my office and will shew for
themselves; and that tho proprietor ami managers of
tho Bank considered it perfectly good for several months
after I left it, there is abundant proof in their own
statements made at various times and places.
The very short period before the meeting of tho Le
gislature, (when I shall endeavor to have the aflaus of
the Bank fully investigated,) prevents me now from
mentioning such facts, and abuses as I understand do
exist, but which I have no doubt will be made appear by
the proper authorities, and until all the facts are proper
ly made known, I In g the indulgence of the community
to suspend any unfavorable impressions. For while I
do not seek, or wish to evade any just responsibilities
on I hat account, I am equnlly unwilling to bear the
burthen of other persons acts.
