has very adroitly attempted to coll the attention of

off the blow which is to send it back discomfited, to
tho land of its nativity, and to free the soil of Geor
gia from its pestiferous breath forever! The now tack
of the organ in this place, is the strongest evidence
we could have of the utter hopelessness of the cause
of nullification in Georgia. And docs the Whig re
ally iinagino that the claims of Judge Dougherty, or
any other nullificr, to a seat on tho Judicial bench
of the Western Circuit, can turn the tide of public
sentiment, which is setting iu so tremendously against
them and theiT cause ? Why, it might as well at
tempt to stay tho progress of of a tornado with a pair
of hand bellows! Had Judge Dougherty all the per
sonal popularity attributed to him by tho “ Whig” in
the intoxication of its party feeling, the arrayment
of his claims against those of tho veriest pettifogger
in the circuit, would avail neither him nor the cause of |
nullification any thing at the present moment. Bc-

the filthy and disgusting business off the hands of the
Legislature : Be it so. However repulsive the task,
we will not shrink from our duty when tho friends of
a subject themselves lay it on our table for post mor.

name of Charles Dougherty Esq. before tho people as

MESSRS. DANIELL AND BEALL.
Mr. Editor—In the Southern Whig, of
the 30th August and 6th September, a writer,
over the signature of Examiner, directed my
attention to the claims of several individuals,
who are now candidates for Congress, and
upon those claims, seems to rely witli great
confidence for the success of the State Rights
ticket. The names of General Rorert A
Beall and Dr. William C. Daniell are,
with Examiner, prominent characters, the

“ GiniriT’ Beall, and others ; after which,
Mr. Bates, of Hall, moved to expunge this
section from the Land Bill, and demanded
the yeas and nays, whereupon the yeas and
nays were recorded, at page 242 of the
Journal of the House of Representatives for
1830, and arc yeas 38, nays 84; and this
same “ distinguished” General Beall, from
the county of Twiggs, recorded his name
against Mr- Bates’ motion to expunge. Yet,
we are told, in the face of this shameful in
dignity to the citizens of Georgia, that, if
General Beall is elected to Congress, he
will be an able and eloquent advocate of their
rights and interests. While this distinguish
ed representative was roaping for himself so
much renown in the House of Representa
tives, by prohibiting the Gold Diggers from a
draw in the Land Loiter’, and by giving
to their “ interest” the same protection which
vultures give to lambs, the Senator from Chat
ham, Doctor William C. Daniel!, was also
preparing to csfl-n for himself the same imper
ishable fame. On page 299 of the Journals
of the Senate, when Mr. Echols moved to
strike out the 15th section, excluding gold
diggers frg/n draws, we find the name of Dr.
William C. Daniell in the negative, like his
friend, General Beall, he could not permit the
opportunity to pass unimproved, without ex
hibiting towards the gold diggers, a small por.
tion of his «loving kindness.”
Examiner also states, that the Doctor,
“ has long been a distinguished member of
the State Rights Party, and his principles and
opinions have acquired for him the appella
tion of a NULLIFIER.” I am at a loss to
say, whether the words “ has long been,” re.
fer back to the period when the Doctor was
aid to General John Clark, or more recently
to his denunciation of John C. Calhoun iu
the Senate of Georgia. At least, I will re
fer you to the Journals of 1831, page 82,
when Mr. Nesbit introduced a resolution
hostile to Mr. Calhoun, and his political prin
ciples ; and when amended, reads as follows
“ Many of the public presses, throughout
the United States, opposed to the administra
tion of President Jackson, have labored to
induce a belie/ that a portion of the people
ofGeorgia are willing to make common cause
with the Vice-President, and thereby contrib
ute to the defeat of General Jackson. Re
cent events, in this Slate, have been unjust
ly hailed, in some of our sister States, as
proof of the triumph here of John C. Cal
houn and his principles, over the President
his friends and his principles. The GREAT
BODY of the PEOPLE of this State have
NO FEELING in common with the pre
tension or with many of the principles of Mr.
Calhoun, ESPECIALLY THOSE CON
TAIN ED IN HIS LATE ADDRESS TO
THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED S
UPON THE SUBJECT OF NULLIFI
"C ATION. They are unequivocally opposed
to the claims which his friends have set up
for him to the Presidency, arryed as they are
against the rightful claims of General Jack
son. No one can be his friend, who directly
or indirectly gives aid or countenance to fhe
most industrious, the most bitter, and most
talented of his opposers,”
The resolution passed the Senate of the
Legislature of Georgia, on the 24th Novem
ber, 1831, bv a UNANIMOUS VOTE, and
Doctor Daniell being one of the Senators who
voted for it. Yet, Examiner says, he has
long been a distinguished member of the
State Rights party, and that his principles
have acquired for him the appellation of
Nullifier. If Examiner is right, and he seems
to speak by authority, was not this vote of
the Doctor’s “ the unkindest cut of all ?”
And, if experience is to be the prophet of
events, may we not challenge the assertion
of Examiner, when he says that in Congress
he will be “faithful firm and decided ?” A
few years since he was aid to General John
Clark ; in 1831, he was an admirer of Gen
eral Jackson and his political principles, and
violent opposer of Mr. Calhoun, and his
Nullfication doctrine—in 1834, he is said, by
Examiner, to be in favor of Nullification, and
his political missionary tour through the State
announces his hostility to General Jackson ;
and yet we are to believe, if elected, he will
be “ faithful, firm, aud decided.” I shall of
fer no comments, as my object was to place
before the peoplo a few historical facts, in re
lation to the Doctor and the Giniril; and let
those whose suffrages they are soliciting
iudge for themselves, and decide accordingly.

Irom a monopoly, more grasping and dicta
torial than has ever before existed in any
State in the Union, determined to crush eve
ry, thing that stood between them and their
object, and commenced demonstrations against
exchange brokers and other capitalists. 0 As
these capitalists generally buv and sell ex
change on terms rather more favorable than
themselves, and prevented them from making
still further exactions, they passud “ rcsolu-
ions’ for the purpose of bringing that class
of citizens into disrepute, and the more effec
tually to accomplish their plans, they have ad-
opted a series of resolutions of the* following
purport.
“ Resolved, That the account of any per.
son or firm dealing in exchange, who shall
draw specie directly or indirectly from any
Bonk in this city, when such persons or firm
can obtain funds on the North, or on Charles
ton S. C., at a premium of not more than one
half per cent, or funds on Savannah, at a pre
miun of not more than one-fourth of one per
cent., shall be stopped atull the Banks of the
city as soon as the General Committee shall
be satisfied of the fact.
“ And when the account of any person or
firm shall have been closed, under this reso
lution, notice thereof shall be given by the
Secretary of this Committee to the several
Banks of Georgia ; and if, after such notice,
either of said Banks shall afford the said per
son or firm facilities for making specie calls
upon either of the Banks of Augusta, the lat
ter will from that time require specie settle-
ments from the Bank or Banks affording such
facilities.”
For tho information of those who have
never reflected on the nature of exchange, it
my be well to observe, that the commercial
community of Georgia requires a certain sum
of exchange to pay debts and buy goods iu N.
York, Charleston, &c. and this sum must be
furnished by those banks that furnish the circu-
luting medium or money of the State. If all
exchange brokers were annihilated, it would
only make this difference, Banks furnishing
the circulating medium would be called on by
numerous merchants of a community, instead
of one or two Brokers. It should hardly be
a cause of complaint with those who not only
fill the country with their paper, but who take
without necessity', and at a discount too, ex
change from interior Banks, that a portion of
their notes should be necessarily returned
though even then, they are not required to
give exchange as they take it, at a discount.
These remarks are not offered as a de
fence of exchange dealers or any other class
of citizens, but simply to show the aim and
object of the Banks at Augusta. The resolu
tions relative to stopping accounts, as well as
sundry other arbitrary measures, were not
agreed to by the Augusta Insurance and Bank
ing Co. whose talented and high minded Pres
ident cannot be too much commended. That
Bank for a time, however, was compelled to
withstand the assults of its neighbors, for de
clining an unlimited assent to the measures
adopted by the majority'. A. B.

to enrol themselves as members of the coun

their names. The number of members of
the Temperance society in this county has

TO THE PUBLIC.
FBTsHE undersigned begs leavo to tender to hip
Ja. friends and the public his sincere thanks fo*
the liberal patronago bestowed on him in his first
and second classes of his Lotteries. And as he is ev
er anxious to gratify the public, he will remark, that
the Capital prize of $8,000 and one of the $2,000
prizes were sold by tho packet, in Athens) to ono
gentleman, a Mr. Sims, wlio directed the prize list to
be forwarded to him at the city of Philadelphia—this
is truly fortunate. Tho other prize of $2,000 re
mained on hand as unsold for the want of n purcha
ser—this is CT Mine. XU The prizo of $1000 was
sent to my agent at Casawatee, and it is said tho
same was sold. Tho prize of $963 remained on
hand unsold, at Dahlohnega, this is also mine. One
of the $500 prizes was sent to Hall county for sale,
and it is not yet known whether the same was sold
or not. One prize of $300 and one of $100 in the
same packet was sent to my agont in Gainesville,
which remained on hand as unsold, for‘ *the want of
purchasers; tho other prize of $500 was owned in
a halt ticket by the Manager, and Master George
R. Eckley of the city of Macon, the other half was
not sold. The prize of $250 was sent to H. H.
Lumpkin, Esq., Forsyth ; one of the $300 remained
on hand at Dahlohnega as unsold, this is also mine.
In conclusion, I will barely observe, that whenever
the tickets are sold, the capitals must accompany
them. The 3d class is in the market, nnal confi
dently believe every ticket will bo sold. ■ The draw
ing will certainly take place on the 30th day ot Oc
tober.
