John Randolph of Roanoke.—This distinguished
individual died at Philadelphia on the 24tli ult. For
several years previous to his dissolution, his health
had been gradually declining, and but two hours be
fore, it is stated to have been as good as it lnd been
for some months. Thus has dropped from the stage
of action one of the most extraordinary men of his
age. As an orator ho has been surpassed by fevr
if any of his couni rymen, and for eccentricity of
character by none of them. Indeed, this peculiarity
liad been gradually assuming for somo years previous
to his death, the general characteristics of insanity.
As a politician, Mr. Randolph never had the confi
dence of the public. On this subject his eccentric
mind was continually leading him from truth to error,
end from error to truth. Hus sentiments always va.
riod on this subject, with the changing tide of feel
ings and circmnstancos: To-day a Federalist and
to-morrow a Democrat—yesterday a consolid itionist
and to-day a Nullifier—one day a bitter opposer of
the Hank ofthe United States and the next its advo
cate. In fine, we believe there never has existed a
a party in national politics, or a leading political
doctrine, which he has not at times adyocatcd, and at
times denounced. He was always, however, consist
ent in one thing, viz: his opposition to the different ad.
ministrations of the Government, from Washington’s
to that of Gen. JitcksonV. In this respect his very r
cev.ricity made him consistent. But ho is gone
an ; let us throw the veil of charity over his faults
and his foibles, and cherish the recollection of his
genius and the brilliancy of his elocution, as exam
ples well worthy of the admiration an i the emulation
of his countrymen.
Duel.—-An ad »ir of honor took place at Rice
Cruek Springs, South Carolin., on Wednesday the
The late Convention.—We last week endeavored
to imprest! upon the minds of our readers the great
importance of that principle of the Constitution to
the Mouth urn States, on which is based our most sa
cred rights—our influence in the - Union, and our
very existence ns a free people viz : the Federal Ba,
sis of Representation. By the adoption of the
amendments proposed by the late Convention, this
fundamental right would receive a shock from which
it might never recover. If, then, there were no pth-
er objection to the new project recommended by the
Convention, this ought of itself to sign its death war
rant. For we repeat, that the evils which would ne-
ccssarily grow out of its adoption, would far tran
scend any benefits it would possibly secure to the
people. We are aware how easily the prejudices of
the people, particularly a portion of them, on a suit-
ject liko this, may lie worked upon by designing dem
agogues. whose purposes rarely extend beyond the
attainment of their own selfish views an 1 personal ag
grandizement. We are ourselves closely identified
with this portion of the people. We mean the poor.
We arc with them not only in feelings but in cir
cumstances. Their rights are our rights, their pros
perity our prosperity. We must therefore claim at
their hands a small degree of credit for honesty of in
tention, in warning them against the attempts which
have been, or may be made, to excite their prejudices
in this matter.
The Federal Union of last week has, as we antici
pated, commenced the enchanting strain. With
honey on their tongues, and self-aggrandizement in
their hearts, they arc endeavoring to woo to their cm
brace and band to their views the honest prejudices
ofthe poor. They tell them that tho Federal Basis
of representation gives every man who owns 5 Ne.
grocs, 3 votes for members of the Legislature, over
his poor neighbor who owns .ionc! This we deny;
and the most obtuse intellect can at once discern the
glaring perversity of facts contained in the assertion.
It is true that this liasis of representation gives to the
large slave-holding counties some advantage over
those who hold none, on the principle of representa
tion alone ; but no advantage at all, when the excess
of their taxation is taken into consideration. This
equalizes the benefits, and takes from the system that
odium which might Iks otherwise attached to it.—
And that the Federal Basis gives to an individual hold
ing slaves, four votes to his poor neighbor's one,is as
wilful—an error as was ever attempted to be palmed
upon the people. It gives influence to counties and
not to individual*—to the poor of those counties as
much as to the rich. And suppose for argument sake,
we admit the inequality and injustice of giving this
preponderance to the slave holding counties ? Arc
there no advantages growing out of the system, to
the (comparatively) non slave holding counties, to
halanco it ? Do not the slave holding counties give
to them the right of voting ‘or, and electing three ad-
itional representatives to Congress ? And arc not
the whole of our representation in that body as much
tha representatives of Hall Habersham and Rabun, as
of Chatham, Wilkes and Monroe ? If not, wc should
like to have the three pointed out to us who repre
sent. under the federal basis, the 3.5 of our black
p9pulation. And is this no advantage ? Would any
portion of the people be willing to yield it ? We
think not. /
If the Editors of* 4 The Federal Union” were sin
cere in their professions of zcaJ in behalf of the rights
of the poor, and in defence of equal representation,
they would have found something better than this,
in the scheme proposed by the Convention, on which
to exercise that virtue.
With professions of friendship for the poor, and in
We have always, and do still entertain, the kindest
feelings, private and political, towards the good peo
ple of the South and East of the State. None ap-
prcciatc more their merits as citizens, and their hon
or and respectability as men ; and we would yield to
them as such, all the advantages of representation
growing out of an honorable and fair adjustment of
the question. •'
Population, or population and taxation combined,
is the only true basis of representation in harmony
witji our Republican Institutions. On these grounds
we are willing to meet them as friends, brothers and
equals. But we can never admit that their uninhab
ited, and uncultivated territory should be placed on
an equality of privileges in the Legislature with the
free citizens ofthe up country.
Rail Roads.—The rapid reproach towards com
pletion of the great undertaking in South Carolina,
intended to connect the city of Charleston with
Hamburg and Augusta, by a rail road, begins rapid
ly to open the eyes of those on this side of the Sa
x’ mnah, who have heretofore been incredulous with
regard to the practicability of such experiments at
the South, and to confirm the friends of internal im
provement in their preconceived opinions in favor of
them. Some of the most influential men, and 1 rge
capitalists in our immediate vicinity, we ere glad to
find, begin to s|>eculuti seriously on the subject of
continuing the rail road from Augusta to this place.
We understand from a gentlemen who is well ac
quainted with the whole scope of country between
this place and Augusta, that a rout may be laid out
for a road which would be direct, without crossing
any water courses other than a creek or two which
empty into the Oconee lielow this place—quite level,
and affording all the conveniences of stone, timber,
&,c. necessary.
We may be ridiculed as visionary speculators by
some, for bringing this subject seriously up for the
consideration of our readers—“ let them laugh who
win.” We well recollect, that only a few years back,
the project of connecting Charleston and Augusta by
a rail road, was ridiculed as the most visionary scheme
that ever entered into the heads of sensible men ;yet
with all this prejudice and skepticism against the pro
ject—with all the disadvantages attending a new and
untried undertaking—and with a location presenting
obstacles apparently the most insurmountable, this
great and Herculean task, after five or six years of
toil and perseverance, is about to be consummated,
and fully to realize the best hopes of those interested.
From this successful experiment we predict will
spring benefits almost inconceivable to our own
State. For it settles the questift of practicability,
and that decides, almost conclusively, all doubt with
regard to the utility of the system. And the time is
not far distant, we would fain hope, when rail roads
will extend to every part of our State, their benefits
and blessings. But not before our good citizens profit
by the excellent advice of the Savannah Georgian,
which we copy lielow for their serious consideration
“ People of Georgia—Read the following article
[referring to an article from the Charleston Courier
which will be found in another column of our paper
this week] and then ask yourselves if you are not
throwing away precious time in disputes concerning
men, which should be occupied in devising the ways
and means for placing you on a footing with South-
Carolina. Though some of the people of South-
Carolina have been crazy on the subject of Nullifica
tion, there was too much method in their madness
to allow themselves to forget their State pride—
and now while some of our would be politicians are
hugging to their bosoms the doctrine of Nullification,

PRESENTMENTS
Ofthe Grand Jury of Rabun county; April
Term, 1S33 4 •
'CYfE the Grand Jurors, sworn chosen and select-
w w 1 ed for the present term, make the foUowing
as our presentments:
We feel gratified that no case in violation of the
laws or of the good order of the community exists,
which calls for any presentment from this body.
The Grand Jury would respectfully request the
Senator, and Representatives of this county, to use
their exertions to obtain an appropriation from the
next Legislature, for the purpose of erecting a bridge
across Tallulah river at Crane’s Ford. The river at
that place is for nearly half the year impassable, and
In the opinion of this body an appropriation for a
better object coub’ not lie made for the up country.
This npplic uion would bo from a section that has
shared but little in the bounty of the state, and this
body therefore hope that it would not be refused.
This body have seen with much pain, the denun
ciations in which several Grand Juries of this State
have recently indulged, ag finst the l it ■ Piocl -motion
of our venerable and worthy Chief Magistrate of the
United States. Whatever cause may h tve ex : s!cd in
their opinion, for such unqualified censure, or howev
er different his opinions may have been from theirs,
we-believe that bis eminent jrablic services, his devo
tion to the Constitution of our country, and particu
larly tiie kind liberality be has always exorcised to
wards Georgia, should have been a sufficient ihield
against such bitter attacks. For ourselves, we view
the Proclamation as a masterpiece of eloquence, rea-’
soning and sound argument, cm mating from a clear
head and a heart devoted to the interest of his country;
and wo believe that this act of his, will be viewed by
posterity as one deserving all praise, and that it will
add another laurel to tha honored brow of Andrew
Jackson.
The Grand Jury take pleasure in expressing their
unqualified approbation of the official conduct of his
Honor Judge Dougherty, and hope long to meet him
in his present station.
T. H. Trippe, Esq. Solicitor Gcner:l, merits, and
will please receive the thanks of the Grand Jury ior
his services.
We request that these our presentments be publish
ed in the Southern Banner and Federal Union.

Slavery and the Agitators.—Tho few and con
tcmptible fanatics of tho Middle and Northern States,
who would, if they had the power, devastate the fair
plains of the South, and deluge them with the blood
of its white inhabitants, in the cause of Negro eman-
aiuce the agitators of the South have given them and
their cause so much importance.
But we are happy to find, from the spirited manner
with which the leading papers, religious and political,
cube North and Easj, have met this question, (since
its agitation in Soujb Carolina) that they qpd their
oppressive and unequal, they declare that in the nev.
system proposed by the Convention, 44 The counties
arc all made equal in their rights and their influence
in the Senate as they should be." Now people of
Western Georgia—freemen who labour with your
own hands—this declaration proves to you the sin
cerity of these men, when they profess to be entire
ly and exclusively, the champions of your rights.—
You all well know that no hill which your represen
tatives may introduce into the Legislature, can ever
become a law, without passing through the Senate as
well as through the House of Representatives ; of
course it is as necessary that your influence as freemen,
should he placed on an equality with othe- counties
in the Senate, as in tho House of Representatives.—
And wlint does the Convention propose to do, and
The Federal Union” in its zeal for your rights, to
sanction ? Why, to make 320 men in Bryan and
Liberty, equal to 2,801
place on an equality of rights, 2,798 freemen of Hall
and Jackson, with 418 in Appling and Tatnall—to
swell out to equal importance, 500 men in Telfair
and Irwin, with 2400 in Do Kalb and Fayette, and
so on to the end of the preposterous chapter of rights
and privileges!! And this is the glorious scheme
which tho Editors of the Federal Union pronounce
to be 44 as it should be!” And why is it ? By what
process of reasoning have those conscientious edit
ors brought themselves to believe that one man in
the low country is equal to 4, 5 &. 6 ofthe up coun
try ? Do they conceive them to be a privileged class,
because they inhabit a section of country not so sa
lubrious as that of the west 1 Is it because they pay
into the Treasury a smaller port’on of taxes than the
othor sections of the State ? or is it because it is ne
cessary for the accomplishment of their selfish
schemes of aggrandizement, that this unequal and
unrighteous system 44 is ns it should be ?”
And not satisfied with giving to those counties
this great and .undue influoncp in the Senate, the
convention has so fixed it, that they shall lose noth,
ing either now, or hereafter, in tho Hottsc of Rcpre.
sentatives. It 1ms fixed the number of Rcpresentn.
tives at 144, and in order to keep it at that point,
when a new county is admitted, one of tho 15 coun
ties which are to be entitled to three members, must
lose one. This proposition was adopted, says the
Savannah Georgian, 44 to leave the East and South
of the State with their now established rates of polit.
ical influence.” And on this subject a .correspond,
ent of the Savannah Republican says
tives, selected for their probity and want of political
juggling, shake off tho incubus which oppresses your
faculties, and unfold to light the abundant resources
of your native State."

TRAVELLER
AND
SPIRIT OF THE TIMES,
A Family Journal; devoted to News,Literature, Mirth,
Sports of the field, and General Information.
BY CHARLES J. B. FISHER,
Brother to Miss Clara Fisher.
HIS varied weekly Newspaper, which was estab
lished in 1831, has now risen to an extensive
circulation, and a most flattering popularity, while
its rapid increase of patronage, it is confidently hoped,
has been met with a corresponding spirit of exertion
Those who love the Sports of the Field,'yill find in
its columns an amplefieldJur their Sports: the Angler
will meet with plenty of amusement in his line : the
Gunner may read,or record all that is worthpowder and
shot: and the Racer we trust, will be as much grat
ified with uur course, as his own, when he has seen
both in the ling run.
Politics and party feelings are totally excluded :
from a conviction that tho merry tale, or the laugh,
ing jest, will cement the bonds of fellowship better
than the angry discussion of those topics on which
the wisest and best may differ—and it is therefore
confidently hoped that the plan of avoiding all pol
itics, will be deemed the most politic plan.
A regular communication has beeu established
with Europc.by which the latest papers and the most
approved Periodic ds will supply our columns with all
that is interesting abroad—while our many corres
pondents in all pirts of the Union, daily furnish us
with sonic fresh matter that concerns or amuses as
at home:—so that in foreign affairs, wo. hope our
readers will always find themselves at home,while in
Domestic News we trust we Bhall never be abroad.
Literature—Works of Art—and the Drama, will
always command the strictest attention. For Liter
ature should be reg .rded as the picture of our ad
vancement,‘ and Works of Art bo always attended to
for the advancement of our pictures; while the Dra
ma, which most persons consider a play thing, will
with us always meet the most serious attention.
This paper is one of the largest size, and printed
with new and elegant type. It is issued every Sat.
urday, and forwarded to country subscribers by the
very earliest mdils.
Advertisers will find its columns a most 1 desirable
medium of publisity. as they not only circulate exten
sively over tbe'City, but traverse the Union from
Maine to Missouri-while all tho latest news regarding
internal communications, will be given for the gui
dance and information both of strangers and travel-
lere.
Merriment and Sport are the antidotes we propose
for melancholy, but as every situation in life has its
cares, it will be our endeavor to lighten those of
our friends, by a copious mixture of amusement and
mirth—yet so tempered, that while its exertion is to
make sorrow smile, it shall never cause • propriety to
grieve.
