LAW CO-PARTNERSHIP
ILTON WILLIAMS & EDMOND H. WOR.
Mr. Jones of Arkansas, attended Mr. Cillev,
and Mr. Wise of Virginia, acted as second to
Mr. Graves. Three shots were exchanged,
the two first without effect.
Tho origin of this lamentable affair, ap
pears to be this : Mr. Cilley had made some
ie tnarks in the House of Representatives, in
which the editor of the New York Courier
jn<l Enquirer, (Jas. Watson Webb,) was al
lied to, having reference to his somewhat
notorious loan of $52,000 from the United
States Rank. W r cbb challenged Mr. Cilley
through Mr, Graves. Mr. C. having declined,
>lr. Graves wished to know if his objection
was against Webb’s character as a gentleman.
This Mr. Cilley refused to answer, although
he acknowledged at the same time, his res.
pect for Mr. Graves. This produced the
challenge from Mr. Graves, and thus two men
('.Might upon the mere point of duelling eti-
iquettc, until a valuable life has been destroy
ed, and the happiness of a wife and child-
ren forever ruined.
It is astonishing that in this elighterr'd and
philanthropic age, so vile,so murderous a prae.
lice cannot be pul down. It can never be
justified and but seldom excused; but in this
case we can look upon it as coming but little
short of murder. Will not Congress take
come measures to arrest so heinous an evii ?
We rejoice lo see that the subject will be
brought before that body, and we cannot nut
hope that it will so fur vindicate its own dig.
mtv, us to adopt a solemn resolution, declar
ing that any member who shall be guilty, eitb-
tt us principal _ ir second, in any duel, snail

dcrous propensities, and prevent such worth-
lt.es and cowardly scoundrels as Webb from
imolviug better and more honorable men in
their quairels.

of actions that arise from these hidden mo-
lives, which, plainly, my knowledge of the
human heart, open to my view, I perceive
that as I am an ultra peace maker, giving the
entire weight of my yet puny influence to the
service of meek harmlessnoss, in oppugnan-
cy of all riot and havoc, I can do nothing nd-
vancive of or conducive to the promotion of
the bland treatment of man to man, of State
to State, except it happen that I become vir
tually instated in a sphere of influence, where
inv opinions and persuasions, respected and
esteemed, may the better enable me to guide
the popular impulses to the chord of sympa
thy with the precepts of the Saviour Jesus
Christ. Refuse me the station of a respect
ed commander, and my opinion will lie val
ued less; give me an important command,
and my sentiments will rise in your estima-
way to operate with rude, brogue men, like
yourselves, who were so unperceptive, so in
sensible, so unaware; so puerile, «n matters of
that high abstraction, on which, in vain I have
endeavoured thus far to enlist your dormant
energies—that while yon will not scan phi
losophy, will not moralize like men, and rea
son as becomes rational* upon causes and ef
fects, it is best that you, for the good of your-
selves and for your endless welfare, enshrine
me in some place of authority, and force of
instruction, where Tcan touch your concep-
tions and teach your hearts—and enhance
your well-being in much that I might motion
for the benefit and safety of our Democracy.

On Wednesday the 7tu inst. the citizens of
Athens convened in the College Chapel pur
sumiI to public noli' C, for the purpose ol re-
cciving lire Report of the Delegates to the
Mercantile Convention which met in Augusta
in October last, and to appoint delegates to
mcil another Convention to he assembled lor
similar purposes in the City of Augusta on the
first Monday in April next.
On motion of Mr. Win. Hearing, A. Hull,
Esq. was called to the Chair, and Philip Clay
ton appointed Secretary.
The object of the meeting having been
fluted by the Chairman, the Address of the
Lite Convention to the Southern and Western
People was read ; whereupon Mr. Doanng
submitted the following Preamble and Reso-
lutions, which were unanimously adopted, viz.
The citizens of Athens recur with pleasure,
to t he first meeting which was hidden .in this
place, moving the call of a Convention for the
consideration ot Southern exportation and im
portation ; and can but remember with equal
satisfaction, that the measure had its original
impulse within these very waits.
In reviewing the opinions then entertained
and expressed, we see no cause to change
them, but arc now equally as much convinced
of iheir high importJiice, and stand ready to
follow up the suggestions of that occasion.
We have received with satisfaction the Re.
port of the delegates to the Convention whirl)
met in Augusta in October lust. The able
manner in which the subject of direct trade
with foreign countries is presented to the
Southern and Western people, is well culcu-
lated to make a deep impression on the puh.
lie mind, and will lead to the consummation
of those measures which promise the most
advantageous results to the whole South and
West, and we trust, without injury to any por
tion of our common country.
In order to contribute as far as possible to
these destr.ldu objects, the citizens of Athens,
here assembled, do resolve,
1st. That we remain fully satisfied of the
immense importance of a direct trade with
Europe, in the exportation of our productions
and the importation of our foreign goods.
2J. That we cordially approve of the Re-
part of the proceedings of the Convention
which met in Augusta last October, and more
especially the able address which accompan.
lies it. The same having been laid before
this meeting, and in pursuance of tho rccom.
inundation contained therein, vve will now up.
point seven delegates to meet the Convention
which it proposes shall he held in the City of
Augusta on the first Monday in April next,
to dt visc further measures of conduct and co-
operation in this grant undertaking.
3d, That the thanks of this meeting are
due and are hereby tendered to our Delegates
who attended the October Convention, and
who so ably represented our interest, at their
own charges of money and tunc.
The following persons were then appointed
to represent this community in (he proposed
Apui Convention.
'V*. Dkarixg, A. S. Clayton, Thomas
Harris, John A. Corb, Thos. N. Ham
ilton, Charles Dougherty, Tiios. W.

Ou motion of Win. L. Mitchell, Esq. the
proceedings ot this meeting were requested lo

REPORTED SUCCESS OF THE PA-
TRIOTS—MALDEN TAKEN !!
There is a failure in the Huron Mail; hut
a gentleman of the highest respectability, who
cainc in the Stage from the Lake, says, it
was reported and generally believed when lie
left, that the Patriots HAD TAKEN MAL-
DEN—KII.LED ONE HUNDRED AND
SKVENTY-THREE ROYALISTS, with u
loss of only seventeen Patriots !
As nil reports, though from various points,
agree as to lime, and the time ns to former
i.rraogenents, we are strongly inclined to be
lieve the decisive stroke has been struck
The mails of to-morrow evening must put all
doubts to rest.”
The last Albany Daily Advertiser adds the
following:
“ Imvoktaxt Rumor—We learn that the
Patriots have finally made a movement. A
large supply of arms and ammunition lett
Syracuse on Saturday evening for the lake
shore, whence a descent was to be made on
Kingston yesterday. The result will be prob
ably known in this city on Sunday evening
next.
“ Meanwhile operations seein by no means
suspended at the West. The Lewiston Tel-
egraph extra of Site 20th says: ‘Yesterday
tiie government despatches from S mdwich
reached the commanding officers on the Can
ada frontier at Niagara, and last night and to
day the whole effective, forces o f the Royalists

The Mandans not Exterminated.—We
are gratified to learn from the St. Louis papers,
that a gentleman just arrived there from the
Manrian nation, reports that the rumors in cir-
dilation of their total destruction by the small
pox are unfounded, only one fourth of them
having died—a pretty fair hecatomb, however,
we should call it, to the veracity of the re-
morseless trader.—A. Y. Sun.
the vulgar emotions of the army, and the.*
popular will for carnage, with no tnterposi-
non of dissuasive wisdom, to mend the hearts
of the soldiers for the best—I will exert a
constant influence to mould the army rather
to the plans of a merciful peace, than of a for-
ward war. As Colonel, esteemed for my
courteous address, and respected for my wis
dom, I shall in the happiest manner be ena
bled to infuse the peaceful meekness of my
spirit into the leaven of the nrlitary, and
hence the civil mass. 1 can tell vou in the
tented field, that 1 esteem it a great dishonor,
and a black stigma, to wear epaulettes and
grasp the sword of military authority, merely,
to shed blood witlesslv—to stand obedient to
tiie unwise impulses of an ignorant executive,
or to serve to the pride and ambition of soma
Bonaparte or Santa Anna—where the cause
and necessity of the strife lie only in the morb
id malignance of their bloody ambition,
beseech you, then and there, to hold your-
selves in readiness to do your duty as brave
men for critical emergencies, when nothing
pacific can settle the controversy—no com
promise avail—no forbearance effect a recip.
rocal concedence oi quietude; and that, un
fortunately, war lias to be done—in such a
case 1 should 9ay that lamenting the fate of
the untoward events, we as soldiers must do
our duty “ more in sorrow than in anger.”—
Rut i will put in this memorable salvo, that
you by no means enter voluntarily into any
service, or even he conscripted to enter one,
where the war is begun by our own injustice,
and pence is possible to attend upon our for-
bearance. And in token of my determina
tion on this point, I shall resign my command
whenever my services be demanded m any
cause but one perfectly just!
These are the influences for peace which
I shall then have over the popular mind. 1
repugn and abhor a military life, and disdain
the trappings and trinkets of civic triumph—
Rut 1 am aware that, s.tuated as I am, deaf
spasmodic and studious, all my efforts tor the
weal of my Republic and friends, opulent or
penurious, are unavailing. I want a station
good enough for me and more congenial with
my feelings, than nil the titles that attach in
this wicked world to the names of the sons
of Mars.

S OLDIERS: l offer myself for your eifebJt
lion to the Colonelcy of the Regiment of
this shire, in the soon coming canvass. 1
am not among those who imbecilely supposes
deafness precludes a man from all offices pe.
culiar to, and pertinent with, the open eared.
Nay, a deaf man like the undersigned, can
do many more things with skill and credit,
than those petty routines to which your own
Better opinion of yourselves and consecutive
depreciation of him, would circumscribe his
faculties and services. The ability to lead
men nlike in the cabinet, the Senate, and the
field, falls precisely within the purviow of the
capacity of any man naturally circumstanced
as I am. If you doubt it, the actual proof will
create a reversion of that derision.
My main intent—the whole aim thereof, is
Peace : I therefore solicit tKe Colonelcy.—
It,seetps this is a perfect anomaly of proce
dure for peace, and a contradiction in. all as.
pects to that design. Acting philosophically,
penetrating deep into motives, and observant
of what wisdom l utter! I twice sought that
station in the civil delegation : but 1 was de-
died. I now seek it in the military sphere :
A denial, too,l know awaits me. 1 make an
essay, however, and say that the honor will
he but momentary, as 1 am going m the
course of tins year to another part of Georgia,
and you will then fix on a permanent choice.
At least bciore !• leave, l shall have left with
you some memento of my love for my conn,
try, nnd solicitude for yout weal to be remote
from woe, that a good reputation for me with
you will be nil honor to which I cannot be in
sensible.
These being my views, and lending unre
servedly— peaccwardly, even in the teeth of
the military, I promise myself, that m the
case of uty selection, some inducement will
be given to perpetuate a stronger sympathy
with peace, than can lie the case where you
have commanders, whose minds are not soar-
ing, or enough profound, lo follow the moni
tions of tho Lord as the best of all plans,
since they lack the wisdom to observe the
beauty and goodness of flis arrangements
1 know too, that a military station conveys
power to the advices of a man—that a Wash-
ington, a Lafayette and a Jackson have mul-
t.potently swayed the papular heart in our
country; and that give me but the station of
a military officer, and I will have the power
to bring my views and systems into being and
operation, with u facility and rapidity, per.
haps, ever unknown in the councils of civil
departments, and never is the attendant upon
the clnsetted author of Books. Haring ex-
hausted almost all arguments in books, I seek
if possible tor some readier avenue to touch
the popular heart. At some future day, I
shall probably visit the General Assembly at
Milledgevdle, to obtain from their choice the
rank ol Major General: in my memorial lo
winch body I shall show, that a deaf man
with the aid of Aid.de.camps, anu « retinue
of Adjutants, is as abundantly qualified tor any
ficld.marshaLship as any other man—as .a
gliding head and sagacyqis leader. But,
shall meantimej»is&them to know, that the
wholev^vw^ht potency of my moral sway
'shalvbefor peace—nnd by the power that en-
circle military commanders, I hope to do a
vaster amount of good to the Republic as a
salutary monitor, than ns a successful Field
marshal. Hence, soldiers! if l cannot reach
your minds and touch your hearts, from out
of the portuls of my studio, or from the Pam
phlets l have published—if after all, your im-
pulse is to abandon me to “ chew the cud of
disappointment”—Ad vainly whine out vain
| syllables, for reform—to write recondite Vot*
(Untes, seldom read nnd as seldom understood
—and if by all these delajs the time for the
triumph of my principles is to he remote, or
posthumous with me, it is inseparable with
the conception of utility to you and all, that I
essay some other and inorq active channels,
to bring my schemes into readier vogiie. Cre
ate me a Colonel—and the work is progress
ed into some measure enough to give it the
air of respectability. Let the Legislature
create me a .Major-General—and the Work is
half accomplished. This is by far the best

MERCHANTS & PLANTERS,
LOOK AT THIS!
A HE President of PRINCETON FACTORY
■ desires to make known to. the Public, and espe
cially to Merchants in tho interior and up-country of
Georgia, that he has, during the winter, been running
a purl of his machinery in tho manufacture ot
Georgia Nankeens,
Willi the view to supply wlist may he wanted in this
State, the coming season. Having advantages over
the Northern Manufacturer in the saving of the cost
of transportation both ways, as also the rate of ex
change, items which must bo paid on Northern goods
by the consumer, or by tho Merchant that brings
them out, 1 can sell my nankeens on belter terms
than tho Northern article can be sold, for the mer
chant to make any thing by bringing it out. In of
fering my goods to the Public I stand pledged to fur
nish as fine, as handsome, and as good an article as
can be procured from the North, or any other quar
ter. My nankeens are all manufactured from strict
ly prime, deep coloured nankeen cotton, grown
the neighboring counties, and it is a known fact that
the goods trill not fade, by washing. My goods aTo
32 inches wide, and are put up in cuts of thirty yard;
and upwards to the piece, by which the liability to
remnants, in retailing, is greatly less than happens
to the Northern mode of putting it up in pieces of
10£ yards only. As I shall have by the middle of
April a stock on hand sufficient lo supply all that
will be probably wanted the coming season, for the
greater part, if not all the populous counties in this
State, I fell it due to merchants in Georgia, ns well
as to myself, to make these facts known to them tie-
fore they go to the North to lay in their spring sup
plies, that they may be the better prepared to act ad
visedly so far as concerns the article of nankeens.—
Besides, it is but fair thatthe Southern people patron
ize their own industry and take care of their own do
mestic institutions rather than be tributary to the
North for articles that can be had at home, on at least
as good terms, and of as good quality. I solicit the
Patronago of Georgians, to give me a homo market
for my fabrics, with assurances on my part, that they
shall always ho generously and justly dealt by. 1
keep also, at all times, by me, a large supply of cot
ton yarns, spun from prime white cotton, and put up
in Bales of 210 lbs. each, embracing in suitable pro
portions all the different Nos. that are in demand, and
can supply orders to any extent, at a moment’s war.
ning, and on cs good terms as it can ho had, any
where in this State. Also cotton Oznaburgs 32 in
ches wide, made heavy and good. I also announce
to tho Public, that my wool cards are now in opera
tion, in first rate order, and that carding of wool for
country customers is dono at Princeton Factor}', in
tho best manner, and with promptness and despatch
My woollen machinery is extensive, and I expect du.
ring summer to manufacture a fine article of Ken
tucky Jeans, for tho fall murko', of which further no
tice w ill be given in time. For nil goods, and yarns
of my manufacture, I tako prime cotlon in exchange,
