Wc understand that the schooner John C.
Calhoun, of this port, which sailed hence for
St. Jngo de Cuba, to try that market and
Trinidad, after calling at the former port, the
Captain was encouraged to proceed to the lat
ter, where the collector insisted on the full
tonnage duty, and the duty on the whole car
go being paid; compelled the Captain to se
cure the duties, and obliged him to proceed
and land the c .rgo at Havana, although the
vessel had orders to proceed to another port.
This certainly is a great interference with our
commerce, and deserves some attention from
all trading to the South side of Cuba. The
market was bad at Trinidad, and the Captain
wished to proceed to another port; but, as
thovc slated, was ordered to Havana by the
Collcctor.—Charlcston Patriot.

Cotton.—Toe animation of our market has
l increase 1 since the receipts of later accounts
from Liverpool and Havre. It is wi’h pleas
ure we find our planters, after disposing of
their produce, returning home in high spirit
and their pockets full, though it will require
some years, like the present season, before
they can be compensated for the low price at
which they have been compelled heretofore
to sell their crops. *Ve would recommend
them, notwithstanding the flattering pros
pects before them, to act prudently in the man
agement of the proceeds of their present cropj
nud to abstain from doubtful speculations.
Since our last paper, wc have to notice
more animation in the market, buyers have
more confidence in the article, and expect
that the present prices, with very little vari
ation, will be kept tip. Sales are rcadilv made
lront 1 -1 3-4 to 15, for round bales. For small
parcels of prime, square bales, from 15 1-4

Paata Rotifers, Pause ! and road the article sign
ed “ Baldwin,” (in another column,) coolly and de
liberately, before you, by your own acta, contribute
towards the accomplishment of the sad state of af
fairs so confidently predicted in it. The opinions
therein contained are from a source entirely disinter
ested—they corne to us as a warning voice from one
who has the sagacity to foresee and the inclination
to avert from the South, the danger ahead, if the
people of Georgia are so infatuated and blindly per
verse as to adopt the suicidal amendment of the con
stitution, proposed by the Convention. We say
again, people of Georgia, those of you in particular
who are disposed to vote for ratification—pause,
read, and deliberate well; and then if you support
the amendments, you will do so with your eyes open
to the consequences. And remember, if you do so,
hereafter, when the evil consequences of your vote
begin to hover darkly over your devoted country,
you will not have even the poor plea of ignorance to
bring forward in extenuation of your conduct, and in
mitigation of those awful feelings of self-reproach,
which must doom you forever to a fate, little less to
be coveted than that experienced by Tant.las of old.
The U. S. Bank and the Cabinet.—The following
is from the Washington Globe of the 24th ult.
“ ArroiST.MS.vr by the President.—R. B. Taney
Esq. was yesterday appointed Secretary of tire Treas
ury of the U. S. On accepting this appointment,
Mr. Taney resigneo' the office of Attorney General.”
The Globe is silent os to the cause or causes which
produced this unexpected change in the Cabinet at
Washington. Wc, however, take it for granted,
that it has grown out of the determination of the
President to remove the deposits from tho P- S. Bank
to the local or State B inks. This determination to
gether with his reasons, were laid before a special
meeting of the Cabinet, on the 24th ult. They, most
probably, not meeting altogether with the views of
the Secretary of the Treasury, his resignation or re
moval became necessary.
The views end arguments of the President, laid
before his Cabinet on this subject, Itll nearly six col
umns in the Globs Wc have not as yet examined
them. After this week we will have more time and
space to devote to this and other national questions.
The removal of the deposits must necessarily pro.
decs for some time great derangement and confusion
In the financial affairs of the Government, as well as
in the commercial world; but the weak and precari
ous tenure by which that “ mammoth of corruption,"
the U. S. Bank, holds its existence, and other co.
gent reasons, renders such a step by the government,
bath wise and expedient.
V'lwn Chase and A. St. >isbel, Itditors,
in ewecutmg my orders, had his horse laBed un
der him. The men whom 1 have had the
honor to command, have done their duty.”
And where let me ask was Mr. Lumpkin
all the time that Major Crawford was thus ex
posing his life in battling with a murderous
enemy, had two horses shot, under him, and
encountered so many other dangers ? Why,
in Milledgeville taking his ease as a member
of the Legislature, and drawing his 3 or 4
dollars a day. What was he about there ?
Why, at bis old business of making a great
fuss, and doing little or nothing at last. He
was quietly seated in Milldgeville drawing up
Divorce Bills, Legitimatising . and naming
.children—and on the very same day of Major
Crawford’s battle of Autossee, 4th Decem
ber 1813, he made 'a Report on some trifling
subject of disagreement between the two
Houses ; which, if any body can make any
sense of, it is more than I can do.
Some difference you see in major Craw
ford’s tind Mr. Lumpkin’s days work on the
4th December, 1813: the same difference,
in fact, which there is now between the two
men. Mr. Lumpkin was’ut fit to manage In
dians in war—he is not fit to manage them in
peace. The proof then, was that he did’nt
go out with Newnau, Floyd, and Crawford, to
fight them ; the proof now, is that he can’t
get them off our lands. This you know your
selves—because you’ not only know that they
are not gone away’, £*ut that John Ross said
in the council at Red Clay, only lost may,
that they were not going at all. Craw
ford knew in 1813 how to manage them—
in 1833 he has not forgotten what he leam’tat
Autossee and Caleebe ; and mV life for it, if
he is elected Governor, there will not be
single Cherokee in Georgia this day next
yepr. Our interest therefore, as well as our
gratitude, calls iu particular upon timse of us
who have drawn land in the nation, to get
Lumpkin out and Crawford in—and so I shall
try to do.

which can be best promoted by oilier outlets
to the sea.
In regard to internal improvements, it re
quires but very little foresight and candour,
to perceive that Georgia must, ere long, set
tle down to THREE MAIN OUTLETS, to
wit—Augusta, Brunswick and Columbus:
She cannot have less, and more cannot per-
minently stand and flourish.
The broad interest of the .people will pre
vail, regardless of sectional canals and rail
roads.
It matters not to the people,, how much
money may be vested in sectional and specu
lating projects: If they do not promote the
best interests of the mass of the people, there
are other routes, channels, bays and har
bours which will do so, and they will prevail
in spite of all opposition, or attempts at fore
stallment.
When speculators of one section have to
count up millions of stock to effect an object
of internal improvement, where another sec
tion have only to count up thousands, (and at
the same time produce a greater benefit to the
people) they had better be cautious; for mon-
cyislikened to an edge tool; when badly-
vested, it is hard to be regained.
The Athens rail road can never be over
thrown by a better outlet to the sea,anc, there
fore, there can be no doubtful hazard in
faithful execution of the foundation of the
work. To render it more popular and profit
able to the stock holders and the country, it
had better be well done at the outset, wheth
er it may cost one or two hundred thousand
dollars more or less. The population and
productions of the interior will grow to it, al
most as fast as the work can progress.

Sweet! sole Relic of that classic lay,
Which melted softly over Cadmus’ grave.
And with the golden god’s expiring ray,
In sweetness died along Ismenus’ wave.
Oa! who again for thee shall sweep those strings,
Which breathed such pathos thro’ the Grecian song,
As gave its tones etherial wings
To waft its raptures to the heav’nly throng!
Which breath’d a softer tone o’er Thcbre’slyre,
Till then by wild untutor’d nature strung,
And touched its chords with that celestial fire,
Winch glow’d in Pindar while to Greece he sung.
Though thy lyre is broken and its lay now still’d,
Its light yet gilds thee and its laurels bloom,
Ai«'whcn fair Hellas with thy fame was fill’d
And glory decked thee with her richest plume.
In dark oblivion thou shalt never sleep,
While mem’ry lingers o’er the classic page;
But gleam a beacon over glory’s steep,
To light fair genius in its pilgrimage.
Memorial Relic, of dear faded worth,
Thy magic did but errant thought control,
Till all enchanting it revived on earth,
In One whose virtues can enchain the soul.
Then laureate Name, in matchless glory rest,
With Her so seraph-like, and chaste—
Sho wakens rapture in my heartless breast—
A fountain in its cheerless waste.
Whose pensive look—whose eye’s dark ray,
As calm and bright as dews of even,
Could steal her minstrel’s soul away.
And waft it home to heaven.

which actuat'd the other members, with himself,
who supported the ordinance of Reduction and Baa
sis-of Ropresaotation which are now boforo the peo
ple of G.orgit for their Ratification. '
lie then offered the following preamble and reso
lutions which were unanimously adopted :
Whereas, tiie late Reduction Convention, held in
Milledgeville in'May last, have passed an ordinanco
reducing the number of the Senators ia the State
legislature one half, and the number of the members
of the House of Representatives near one third, and
have changed the basis of representation from the pre-
sent of federal numbers, to that of thoFree White
Basis; and although this county will be sacrificing
one member in the Lower House, the sacrifice is no
more than any other counties uor s-o much, for that
our county, with the whole up country, will be great
ly benofitted by the substitution of the free white for
the federal or slavu sisis.
Lsxolved therefore, That we concur with tho fore
going amendments and pledge ourselves to ratify the
proceedings of said Convention.
Be it further resolve l, That we disapprove of
6ome of the late proceedings in some parts of this
State, which Boem intended to further the vain and
obnoxious doctrine of nullification ; and we pledge
ourselves not to support any man for any offico, who
wo have reason to believe, is tainted with tiie baneful
and preposterous doctrine of nullification.

having been nearly seventeen hundred subscri
bers received since its commencement, in July last
—is the best evidence of the estimation it has secu
red in the public mind. While the present proprie
tors will pursuo the'course which has confered such
eminent popularity on their predecessors,they will also
use every endeavor to give the SPY, a spirit of greater
vigour, variety,and origiualitv, than has been hereto:
fora achieved. This publication is intended as a satiric,
al observer & corrector of the manners of the day—
Satire is a most effective and powerful weapon in the)
hands of a judicious tatician, and may be used on
any occasion with advantage, hut particularly upon
tho vices or follies of tho coinminunity. The re-spcc--

for its utility and excellence ; and for the tolcl ex
pulsion from its coiuinus of scurility which blunts
the edge of satire, and deprives it of its purifying
agency. L terature and the Drama will be shirers cf
its columns, and all that is serviceable to the progress
of useful inforamation and moral improvement will
receive its warm advocacy.
