THE ADVOCATE. BRUNSWICK, (Ga.)—JUNE 22, 1837. The Report of Col. Baldwin. In the previous numbers we have published tlie leg islative and Congressional documents, relating to the harbor of Brunswick, and in the present number is inserted portions of the Report drawn up by Col. Baldwin. This gentleman is extensively known as a practical Engineer of great experience and learning. The Dry Docks constructed by him for the use of the Navy, arc among the most perfect specimens of art to be met with in the continent, and his various surveys and examinations, prove him to be one of the most accomplished Engineers of the day. The confidence placed in his judgment by those acquainted with him is un limited, and no one could have been selected, ■whose opinions w ould receive more deference. \Yhen, therefore, it was first proposed to North ern capitalists to invest property in,this work, they employed this gentleman to examine the harbor, and also the facilities for constructing aiCanal. They were not willing to embark in an enterprise requiring an expenditure of millions, without understanding fully the means by which their money should be returned, and .they at some future time reap reward of their labors. 'Accordingly Col. Baldwin came | prepared to examine the ground with an eye ! to the interest of his employers—his feelings prejudices, and wishes were with his Northern friends, and nothing however slight, which could detract from its value would be likely to escape his observation. That feeling of State pride which might have led the Commissioners to view every thing in the most favorable light, covdd not of course influence him. He did not look at the subject with the eye gs a Georgian, anticipating the growth ofa city, and the open ing of a port, which should add so much to the wealth and importance of his State, over looking the obstacles to be removed, and the disadvantages to be overcome. But he exam ined it as a business man, with sole reference to the profit which should accrue to those un dertaking the heavy work, and with this feeling he made his survey. It will be observed that he continually corroborates the statements of the Commissioners, and thus affords accumula tive evidence of the accuracy of their Report He also adds another to the number of those, who after careful and thorough examination, have pronounced this tire best harbor south of the Chesapeake. In fact, those have spoken the most violently against Brunswick, who know the least about it Upon the strength of Col. Baldwin’s Report, together with the exertions of a citizen of Glynn County, the stock has been taken up—the work commenc ed, and now progressing more vigorously than at any time. It may be fair to remark thftt two errors are said to exist in this Report One being an unimportant mistake in regard to the con struction of the Steamboats used on the Alta maha. And the other, in regard to the depth of water at Doby. For the last mistake, (if such it is) he was indicted by the Grand Jury of Mclntosh County. But as if this were not con sidered sufficient proof of his error, a letter has been published, written by a Lieut Ramsay of the Navy, which we arc informed was pre pared for the purpose of showing that Doby bar deserves a much better character than it has heretofore borne. Should we be able to pro cure a copy of this letter, we shall lay it before our readers. For we are desirous of doing justice to all the towns which may be injured by the growth of Brunswick. The objection ha3 also been made that Col. Baldwin went be yond his province, in speaking at all of Darien or its port But it seems to us that he did no more than the strict performance of his duty required. He was employed to report the ad vantages presented by Brunswick, and the re sources it could command; —and surely in speaking of the excellence of its harbor, and the trade to be drawn from the Altamaha by means of a Canal, it was necessary to explain the reasons why that trade should leave its old channels. These reasons appealed to him to be the anhealthiness of the town, and the in feriority of the harbor at the mouth of tire Al tamaha. If I ?'.'/'.' 1 -* - rbor could afford the neces sary security and facilities for extensive .com merce, then Brunswick was not required, and he was compelled to show that Doby and Da rien, did not afford the requisite advantages. Without offering an opinion aj present on this subject, we shall reserve any further remarks until we comment on the letter of the Lieu tenant to which allusion has been made. The Trace of the South. It is some what singular that while the South is the great producer, the transactions of the country should be entirely conducted by the North. While the South raises the gTeat staple which pays for the immense amount of foreign goods con sumed in this country, the advantages arising from the interchange of commodities are con fined exclusively to the North. And the South ern ports instead of increasing in population and importance, are tributaries to New York. This extraordinary phenomenon excites the surprise of every reflecting mind, and the question naturally presents itself, why this exception to the general principles of political economy ? Why is it that instead of a direct exporting and importing trade between the South and Europe, it should be necessary to use New York as the broker for both ? Euro pean voyages can be made in less time be tween the Southern porta than New York— the merchants of the interior could purchase their goods much cheaper, and all tire expen* ses now accruing from thetise made of New York, both in the way of freights, insurance and commissions, but also tire important item of domestic exchanges would be saved. A di rect exporting and importing trade would tend to increase the profits on the cotton, and cer certainly diminish the price of the imported goods. Many of the country merchants pur chase their stocks in New York on six months, and often times before they are able to expose them for sale, the notes are due, and the goods in point of fact, are to them precisely as to the New York merchant who purchases with cash. The cotton, too, is liable to the same delay in reaching a market, and when to these are added the items we have enumerated of freight, insurance, commissions and exchanges, the consumers must pay an enormous advance on the cost of the goods in the New York market, the greater part of which might be saved, if there were at the South cities import ing extensively enough to supply the wants of the country. One principal cause for this un natural state, is the sickliness of all the South ern ports, which for several mouths in the year effectually closes them to the entrance of ships from European voyages. If, however, a port can be found free from this objection, where ships can enffcr with ease, and remain in safety, and the crews preserve their health at all seasons, Summer as well as Winter — i where well directed capital and intelligence shall centre —will not much of that trade now j tending North, be checked and turned P Andi will not the entire South be a gainer by the.! change? * j The individuals who are engaged in the j improvement of Brunswick, believe that it pre-! sents all the requisites for commanding an ex- j tensive commerce—a harbor capable of admit- * ting and protecting all the tonnage employed in the Southern trade, and a climate not the j least deletefipus to the health of seamen—a rich back country, and its resources annually I developing by the const-uction of Rail-roads, and consequent growth of the country through which they pass. Engaged in such an enter prize, are they not justly entitled to the good wishes of the South, and most especially of Georgia ? And the acts of the Legislature of this State have given them the best assurance that this enterprize receives the favor of the i people. In this age of experiments, they have ! undertaken one, which, if it succeeds, will j cause a complete revolution in the commercial operations of the South. An experiment of such importance requires the expenditure of large sums and heavy sacrifices, all of which j will be met with a perfect certainty of the re sult; for that city which possesses the most advantages, must in the end command more business than any in the South. The Canal to the Ai.tamaha. Although j much money has been expended on this work, j the results have as yet been small. This has been owing to several mistakes committed by j the Company, but which have now been cor-1 rected. The great error was in procuring Irish-j men instead of blacks. The great works ofj Internal Improvement at the North, have been | constructed by Irish laborers, and when kept, under proper control, they serve there a very j useful purpose. Aware of this fact, the Com- i pany naturally supposed that these men could | be as easily managed here as elsewhere. But j the experiment proved the fallacy of their ex pectations. For removed from the wholesome I restraints imposed on them by a dense popula-1 tion, and with overseers incapable of command- | nig respect or obedience, they acted very much | as they pleased ; and from the day of their ar- 1 rival to that of their departure, our quiet town was but one scene of drunkenness and riot.— ( Five hundred Irishmen were brought out and ; paid for three months time, and their labor was 1 not enough to pay their passage. When any i of the kind friends and well wishers of Bruns wick, are inclined to talk ofjlhe money thrown away by the Company, they will be performing an act of justice to mention that the greater . part of the money so spent, was for Irish labor. But not only was there a loss of money and provisions, but also of time. For nothing worth mentioning had been accomplished at the time the blacks commenced in March. Or these, about two hundred have been employed in draining the town, and from a calculation made by the Engineers, the same labor on the Canal would have completed two miles. The other gang has not worked under such favorable circumstances, but still their results are favor able. The whole force is now actively engag ed on the Canal, and at the expiration of the year, a good portion will be completed. Should the paralysis under which the business of the world is now suffering, be at all relieved with the new year, a large force will be placed on the work which will be pushed forward with renewed activity. Professor Silliman of Yale College has been offered a Professorship in the Transylvania University of Kentucky, which it is expected lie will accept. If so, the West will be rob bing New England of her' most enthusiastic sftdent of nature. “The Journal of Arts and Sciences” conducted by this gentleman has done more to elevate the American character abroad, than all the Magazines and Novels which have teemed from a fruitful press. And to the influence of his industry and devotion may be ascribed in a great measure tho inter est now felt in the study of the physical scien ces, and more particularly those Geological ex BRUNSWICK AtoVOCATU. aminations now going on under the authority of the different States. We have heard it re markeffithat in this country alone has anything of the kind been undertaken by Legislative | sanction, and while the Princes of Europe have { been the patrons of the Fine Arts, the States !of tlris Union have been the first to examine the conformation of their territory and add to this department of knowledge. Should Professor Silliman move West, the [ great Valley of the Mississippi will give up its secrets and the history of its creation will he by him decyphered from the hyeroglyphics which nature has engraved upon its surface.— And in the course of years the Naturalist will receive the record of one of the most wonder* j ful phenomena of the Elements,and anew page in the great volume of Nature be exposed for ! his study. . • From the Augustine Herald, June G. RENEWAL OF HOSTILITIES. Since our last intelligence has been receiv ;ed from Tampa, that all the Indians at the I camp there had fled to the woods. The cir cumstances are stated to be that Gem Jesup had ordered those enrolled to prepare for im mediate emigration, to which they seemed averse, and an intimation reached the comman ding General, which induced him to send cut a detachment to take them prisoners; but when they reached thT- Indian camp they found it evacuated. Every Indian including the hos tages Micanopy, Jumper and others. Thus they have temporised and used every deception and subterfuge to pass off time until the sickly season had commenced. ~ It is said that Micanopy. in order to deceive aiul induce a belief in his Sincerity, deposited in the hands of a Sutler at Tampa, a tew- days previous to this flight, a considerable sum of money said to be about 1000 dollars; Abram, the negro chief and interpreter, also deposited a consid erable sum. Verily, “Micanopy is not the fat old fool we have thought him.” By the arrival of the steamboat Essay at Pi colata yesterday from Fort Mellon, we learn that a number of Ifftnams had made their ap pearance at that post, and it is said Philip and Micanopy are among them; they assign as a j reason for leaving Tampa, that sickness pro- j vailed among the soldiers there,’and they fled | from contagffm, and also that they wanted to j hold a talk with the officers at Fort Mellon. An express rider from Micauppy at Black Creek reports that several men had been mur. ' dered near the Big Spring on the Oeklawaha, about 2 1-2 miles from Fort King, and it is ‘ feared that it is too true. An officer of the army at Tampa in writing i to his friend at Black Creek, commences thus. "As hostilities axe again about to commence,” &c. Letters it is said have been written by Gen. j Jesup, to the commanders of posts, .ordering j them to be on the alert, and recommending them to advise the inhabitants to abandon their crops and retire upon the posts. Our cunning enemy has againfoiled us, and has shown himself as successful in the cabinet las in the field. During their protracted nego | tiation, they were enabled to supply themselves | with provisions, clothing and ammunition; they j brought in largo droves of cattle, the captured i property of our citizens which they sold to | the Government, and received certificates there for at a certain valuation ; these were taken Iby traders as so much money, and were thus | enabled to purchase supplies. They obtained j ammunition from the Creek Volunteers, who j received it from the ordnance officers, for the i ; purpose of hunting. j Nearly two, out of Powell’s threatened five j ; years, in which he would fight the w hites have i I elapsed and judging from the progress made on our part tow ards conquering him, it seems likely that he .will be enabled to hold out the ! remainder of the time. But the distress, anx- j iety, and hardships to be endured by our in habitants are easier felt tiian described. The 1 troops are to retire to summer quarters and ' nothing will be done till fall beyond protect- j 1 ing the frontiers.—The last four months have | 1 been wasted in negotiation and the Indian? ; have become recruited from the fatigues of the past campaigns. The people have become ti- | rod and their patience is w ell nigh exhausted, j with heart sickening deferred hopes. It is not our habit to complain.—Complaints avail but ; little. If the blood of our murdered fellow citi zens, which calU aloud for vengeance ; the ashes of our consumed dwellings ; and the sight of our ; ravaged plantations, will not awaken the ener gies of those charged with the termination of this ; horrid warfare — what will ? i ~ It is-rumored that Fort Armstrong had been : attacked and that the fight continued two hours. Gen Jesup is said to be at Fort King. We give the above as reports merely ; the avenues of correct information seem to be clo -1 sed-to us and we can give but the reports of the day.—We have been informed from a very high source, that very strict orders had been sent to Gen. Jesup from Washington, not to allow any tiling to appear in the public papers in relation to our Indian affairs in Florida, which would have the tendency to excite alarm arubttpprehtnsion in tlw mind of the inhabitants* Such a course has been prescribed for those who have the charge of protecting and defend : ing our inhabitants and terminating the horrid | warfare which has desolated our territory, and they cannot pursue any other. There are but few who can approve of this suppression of in ] formation, so important to his. It creates dis trust and want of confidence, and produces the effect which it is wished to avoid. The peo ple wish to know the facts and the/ ought to be made acquainted with them. Gem Jesup’s plan now is, it is stated to em i ploy a number of Choctaws. The Cseeks ! have been found to be inefficient. They are connected with the Semiuoles by the ties of | consanguinity, and speak tlie same language ; 1 they have found friends and relations among j them and it is not to be expected that they will 1 be as efficient as was at first anticipated. : The Choctaws make it their boast that they ! have never yet shed tlie blood of a white man, l and they are represented as being a warlike ! tribe. It is said a feeling of jealousy exists a mong them that the Creeks were employed in prefiffence. They speak a different language and are in no way connected with the Semi noles. The Mobile Advertiser of Monday last, says, | “Major General E. P. Gaines left here for Jef | fferson Barracks, Missouri, his Head Quarters, i yesterday morning, on board the steamboat j Swan. On Saturday afternoon he reviewed j several of our independent companies, who were out in full dress for the occasion. Later from Franc*.

As I liaVC observed in my former communications, tlie Texan volunteers cantoned at the camp upon Ijaßaca, or Navidad, have been very much dis satisfied at the state of inactioq in which they have been kept for die last twelve inontlia, and felt very anxious either to advance into Mex , ico or obtain their-dischnrge. Tlie Texan ar- I my is daily increasing in numbers, by tlie con | stant arrival of volunteer/, and amounts now to 1 2,400 men, in the best order and discipline; but j the government is laboring under great diffi j culties to keep them together. In fact, the soldiers begin to suffer from tlie w*ant of provis ions and pay; and under such circumstances, no wonder the following occurrence has taken j .place. On the sth ultimo, some unwillingness was manifested by a number of the volunteers to t attend to their duties on the pretence that they I were refused what govermnent had promised them. On tlie following day several-of them j refused to assemble on parade,and w-ere conse ! quently put under guard, and confined inirons, by order, as it was reported, of tlie coimnrading General, A. Sidney Johnson. The same night, about five hundred men, armed with muskets and bayonets, proceeded to the guard tent, and demanded of the captain of tlie guard tlie. immediate release of the prisoners ; he refus ing to grant this, tlie mutineers entered the tent and knocked off the irons of the men con fined there. Communication of this movement w’as quickly convoyed to General Johnson,who was still confined to his tent; but irt despite of his wound, ho mounted his horse, rodo to the artillery corps, and ordered a parade of the va rious companies. The cannons were loaded with grape and canister, and drawn up so as to rake tlie whole line of the mutineers. General Johnson then unhesitatingly rode up, ordering them to ground their arms immediately, or to receive the discharge of the artillery. The mutineers finding their situation rather un pleasant, cast a look at the artillerymen, and obeyed the order without murmuring. The ringleaders (about twenty in number) were then secured and put in irons—the remainder dis persed to their, quarters, and order and disci pline were restored in the camp. Gen. John son seldoiqjeaves his tent, his wound not per mitting it. Hehas written to the Secretary of War, either to send him officers to assist in the command, or to appoint another command er ; but by this time, General Felix Houston must have returned to tlie army. [Cour. & Enq. An old bon vivant., eighty years of age, living near Quaide Jemmappes, gave a dinner to a party of his friends. The glass and the song went round merrily, and the master of the feast was even more cheerful and joyous than usual. Just as lie hud finished a bacchanalian song, he addressed his guests, saying, “Gentlemen, every tiling ends with a song, and it is time for me to come to an end also?* Upon this he took up a knife that lay before him, plunged it into his heart, and fell from his chair, wel tering in his blood. His astonished, guests immediately went to his assistance, but life was extinct He had taken the utmost 'precautions to secure the success of his project The knife which was pointed, had been sharpened at his express desire ; the blow was directed so as to be certain of its effect; and he had put aside every article of his clothing, that was likely to impede the stroke. No positive motive for this desperate act is known to exist; but it is recollected that the deceased had lately been heard to declare that deatii was preferable to the infirmities and privations of old age. A.decision on the subject of theLiuEL Law has been made in England by Lord Denman, which seems to have produced quite a sensation. lie has ruled that pub lications by order of Parliament are not covered by the privilege, but may be sub jects of action for libel. Lord John Rus sell lias considered tlie decision of suffi cient importance to call the attention of the House of Commons. The freedom of speech, is thereby construed not to include tljc freedom flf publication. A member may state without legal question : ing, elsewhere, every thing in relation to ! individuals, which he may think proper, | and believe the House has a right to know in order to upon public matters. There is no check uprtft his discretion there, but the law is held not to authorise the publi ; catio.n of libellous matter. The question |of privilege is therefore likely to come ' up for a thorough examination in the Brit ; isli Parliament. W ashing Silks. A late number of an English periodical contains an useful ar ticle on washing silks, from which _wc copy the following extract: — ‘'Lajfeth* piece of silk upon a clean board; soap a piece of flannel well, with out making it very wet, and with this rub the silk carefully and evenly one way ; al ter having thus cleansed one side of the silk, take a wet sponge and wash off the soap; proceed in the same manner to clean ‘ the other side, and then wipe the water oft* of each with a clean dry cloth ; after which hang the silk in the air to dry: do not wring it, but hang it as sin gle as possible upon a linen horse, and let it dry gradually. When very nearly dry, iron with a cool box. In this manner we last summer washed a slate-colored dress which was so dirty with constant wear of a winter, that we did not like to use it ev en for linings, without endeavoring to re- | move some of tlie spots, and we were quite j hopeless of its being fit for any thin" ex cept linings even when washed, but its brightness was completely restored; its texture was softer than when new, and it made a very nice looking child’s frock.” The Pretty Venuses. In looking" over tlie list of letters remaining in the post office at Lowell, on the 15th inst. we find the following romantic distinctives attached to patronymics of the pretty fac tory girls; Jenette, Ruby, Chloe, Rosamond, Roxa, Sopflroma, Philindn, Clarissa, Marcia, Adalina, Evelina, Melis sa, Cynthia, Laura, Pelia, Elvira.
