The following is a copy of the note sent us !
by Mr. MacArdell:
Darien, May lt>, 18.'17.
Sir, —
On yesterday you called Com. Ram- '
say, a “puppy”—as a friend of that gentleman’s
I wish to know if you still persist in applying j
’such a name to that officer.
Respectfully,
> J. W. Frost, Esq. C. MACARDELL.
Below is the note as published in Mr. Mac-
Ardell’s paper:
(No. a)
Darif.m, May 12, 18-17.
Sir, —On yesterday, you called Com. Ram
ey, a “puppy.” Now’ I’wish, as a friend of
that gentleman, to know if you still think him
such. This communication .you certainly will
accept, I presume. In the event of your still
persisting in applying the epithet “puppy,” the
bearer w ill meet your friend, and act as he,
thinks proper. Respectfully,
J. W. Frost, Esq. C. MACARDELL.
The word of Mr. Mabry is pledged that Mr.
MacArdell shall have the meeting he at one '
time appeared to seek so eagerly, whenever he
will send a gentleman to act for him whom
Mr. Mabry is willing to recognise. It shall be
our pleasure to see that the pledge of our l
friend is redeemed.
We hope our readers will pardon this ego
tism —but we have pursued the same course
with regard to ourself which we should wil- j
lingly allow to any gentleman, viz. to publish
through our columns a statement of facts.—
We shall not again honor Mr. MacArdell by
introducing him to the notice of our readers.
He having seen fit to wage a warfare of words,
we shall henceforth give him way on the same
principle that a skunk always receives, “a wide
birth.”
“A Whig of Glynn” must excuse us for de- j
dining to publish his communication. Were
it inserted in our columns it would be a direct
forfeiture of our public pledge not to interfere
in polities. It would afford us much gratifica
tion, however, to publish the opinions of the
author on subjects disconnected from politics.
The nervousness of his style will ever render
him an acceptable correspondent.
We cut the following 4th of July Toast by
Col. Stewart, formerly of Glynn, now of Sa
vannah, from the Georgian, of that city :
The Town of Brunswick, in (1 corin'a. Cer
tain success and prosperity awaits her: for
nature has declared aloud, that Brunswick shall
be a flourishing Atlantic City.
The Surveyor of this County, in a commu
nication signed by him, which appeared in the
last number of the Brunswick Advocate, seems
to feel aggrieved at some remarks that were
reported to him to have been made by me. at
a recent meeting in this county, in reference
to a late survey of a part of the Commons of
Brunswick: and proceeds to pronounce cer
tain assertions, which he imagines me to .have
made, to be unfounded and untrue.
In his communication I am made to say by
his reporter “that it was his (my) opinion that
the forms of law had not been complied with—
that the survey was not advertised, and if it was
he (I) did not doubt that the same person who
put up the advertisement took it down again
before the seals were dry.” I did snv, “I shall
perhaps bo told that the forms of law were com
plicd with: that the notice, was stuck vp at a
public place. Perhaps so :—and if so, I hazard
little or nothing in saying that the hand that
put it up, tore it down before the wafers with
which it was attached were dry. But I waste
words in meeting such miserable subterfuge.
I ask was that done which ought to liave been
done to an individual; —and which was em
phatically required as public rights were in
volved,—were the guardians of the Academy,
or the community made aware that a warrant
had been taken out to run the land: thus af
fording them an opportunity of doing w hat the
law- authorized them to do, —to resist it legally.
The land to be run was claimed by a public
body, &c.” This comprises, I believe, every
thing in my address w hich was of incidental
application to the Surveyor. It will be per
ceived that I admitted that the forms of the law
might have been complied with: but that I
very much doubted whether the spirit of it had
not been evaded. I continue to hold this o
pinion. The disclaimer of the Surveyor lam
willing to receive as a proof that he stuck up a
notice, and that he did not take it down him
self, or direct it to be taken down: but I require
further evidence to shew that the notice was
sufficicntly*e.\plicit, that it was attached to a
conspicuous part of the Court House, and that
it remained there long enough to answer the
intention of the law, —namely to give it due
publicity. My increduility rests on the fact,
that six months had expired, after the survey
had been made, without any individual in this
community, not interested in it, being at all a
ware of the circumstance. The Court House
has been used for the purposes of a school or
lodging during the last eight months; and
since November the Courts have been regular
ly held in it. During the period when the ad
vertisement should have been posted up hun
dreds of persons visited it: and had a proper
advertisement, —one clearly describing the
tract of land, —been affixed to a conspicuous
part of the building, it would have been most
astonishing,—as the land in question was re
garded as public property,—had it escaped no
tice and comment Such a circumstance ap
proaches so nearly to a possibility, that incred
ulity may be entertained without the reproach
of illiberality.
The Surveyor expresses himself as confident
that he has never given me the least cause to
speak of him in the manner I did. If lie re- j
fers merely to his private character and indi- J
vidual deportment, I have pleasure in saying j
that I have no exception to make to him: but |
I regret to say that he has given me, as a Com- j
missioner of the Academy and Commons of j
Brunswick, very just cause to condemn in
strong terms, the manner in which he has per
formed his official duty as County Surveyor,!
in the transaction under consideration.
Ist. He appears to me to be liable to the re-!
proach of not having complied with the spirit
of the law, by neglecting to see that publicity
was given to the survey.
2d. That he has violated his duty, by sur
veying a tract of land, which, he must well
have known, had been previously surveyed.
When he has given a copy of the advertise
ment which he stuck up; stated where it was
placed ; how long it remained up; and proved
that at least a few individuals on whom secre
cy was not enjoined, were aware of the sur- '
vey and its character, he may relieve himself
from the first charge. As to the second, as it j
is impossible to suppose him ignorant of the
facts, that the land to be run was a part of the j
Commons of Brunswick, and that they had j
been surveyed before, I can suggest no way
bv which he can extricate himself. This task ;
must devolve on his counsel, when he is called j
on, as he probably v»ill be, to answer before
the Superior Court for this infraction of his
duty.
In conclusion, I would observe that if the
Surveyor will furnish the proof required, to
show that the secrecy in which this transaction
was involved, was not owing to him, that it will
afford me unfeigned pleasure to make a public
acknowledgment in his favor. But until he
does so, he must pardon me for believing that,
had he made proper exertions to give publicity
to the proceeding, the community would have
known something of it. Ifhe has done so, and
yet has failed, he has been peculiarly unfortu
nate. It usually requires much pains to keep!
a secret, but it is not generally supposed to be
a difficult matter to publish what every one has
an interest in knowing.
J. 11. COLTER.
July 10th, 1837.
[From the Savannah Georgian.]
Finn. We have received from Mr.
William White, Pilot, the following
particulars of a lire on board the barque
Mart/ Kimball, of Marblehead, Capt.
Fiu.r. ro, which was cleared for Liverpool
last Wednesday, with a cargo of 1051
halos Upland and 2!iS bales Sea Island
Cotton.
A smoke was discovered by the Stew
ard, on Thursday morning about seven
o’clock, issuing from the side of the ves
sel, forward of the main hatch, lie im
mediately reported the same to the Captain.
The Barque was at the time under way for
sea, and near Long Island. She was
brought to an anchorage at the lower end
of the Island by Mr. White, the Pilot on
board.
Mr. White, at the request of Captain,
came up to the City to inform the Con
signee and to procure the necessary assis
tance to extinguish the lire. The steam
boat South Carolina, with a Lighter and
an Engine, was despatched to the Barque,
and reached"her in the afternoon. With
the exertions of about sixty men, (includ
ing the crew,) all under the direction of
Messrs. Thrower and Coles, who worked
all Thursday afternoon, all that night, and
yesterday until about four o’clock, those
on board succeeded in extinguishing the
tire, by boring holes in the upper deck and
forcing water thro’ them. About eight
o’clock yesterday the decks were thought
sullicientlv cool to take oil’the main hatch,
when they were able to get out a number
of bales of Cotton, thirty or forty of which
being more or less, on fire were thrown
overboard. <)n Thursday night the Barque
was towed up, while on tire, by the steam
boat, to Five Fathom, abreast of Fort
Jackson, to be nearer the City, the En
gine playing all the time into the ship.—
When the lire was extinguished the ship
had seven or eight feet water in her hold
—consequently the cargo is much damag
ed.
The ship is still lying at anchor at Five
Fathom, and as soon as she can be pump
ed out she will be brought up to the City.
Both the vessel and cargo are insured,
the former in Boston, and the latter in
London. Until the cargo is discharged,
the damage cannot be estimated.
From Florida. The Steamboat Flor
ida, Capt. llr.uuAitn, arrived yesterday
from Black Creek. We are indebted to
an officer of the army on board, for the
following information.
Our informant states that things remain
nearly the same as at our last advices.
Gen. Juste had arrived at Black Creek
on a tour of inspection and would pro
ceed as far as St. Augustine and return
to Tampa Bay.
A post was to be established at Silver
Springs, above Lake George, and two on
the Suwannee. The different posts that
had not been abandoned were said to be
healthy, and the country, generally, was
much healthier this year than last.
We also learn that How Heps, one of
the Chiefs, was captured at Fort Foster,
by a detachment under command, of Capt.
Ali en, and that three Indians were also
captured at Pdatka, by Capt. Hanson’s
company and a detatchment of Dragoons,
under the command of Lieut. May.
The report of the death of Miranopy
is unfounded. He is said to be still friend
ly, as also Jumper and Cloud.

BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE.
The Federal Union, of Tuesday last
says : —“His Excellency Governor Schley
left this city on Sunday last, 2d inst. for |
Warsaw, Gwinnett county, by way, of A-j
thens, &ec. whence he will proceed im
mediately to superintend and expedite the
surveys of the different routes thought
practicable, by the State engineer, for the
great trunk rail road from the Chattahoo
chee to the Tennessee line. The energy
and zeal of the Gov. in this great State t
undertaking, will very much accelerate!
the work on the road, which will, in all

Remarks. Only a day later, viz. the 24tli
of May, from London lias been received, at!
which period things stood well for America.—
The packet of the Ist of June is looked for
with much impatience, but when we get the j
news of the Bth and Ititfi June, the whole story
will be told. The taiiures in England have
been comparatively nothing to what was ex
pected- The indebtedness of this country to
England must be very great; the stoppage of
our Banks, and the consequent, sudden and ex
orbitant advance in Exchange, will place it al
most beyond the power of the debtors to make
good their amounts. Time will no doubt pro
duce a change. Trilling imports and large
exports must bring about a different state of
things. There lias seldom been less business
done in the city than at present, Things are,
however, becoming more settled, no failures
take place, and confidence is daily increasing.
A large amount of capital remains unemployed,
and, as shaving notes is an end, must find its
way into regular channels. Exchanges are so
out of joint that it is difficult to operate at all,
but as absolute necessity must torce a better
state of tilings, (for a worse cannot be) we
look forward to a more favorable condition.
Cotton. There has been a good demand
for shipment throughout the week. The bet
ter descriptions “fair,” to “good fair,” selling
freely at 10 1-2 a 12 l-2e., and the lower qual
ities, “ordinary to middling fair,” to 8 aft 1-1.
The. Savannah Runaway Slave. A
gentleman from Thornaston, gave us, yester
day, some particulars of the miscalled “rio!” at
that place, differing somewhat essentially
from the accounts of the affair winch have been
heretofore published. The runaway was a
caulker. He had been employed upon the
schooner in which he made ins escape, while
she lay at Savannah, and it is supposed that
some person on board told him of the high
wages which he could procure at the North,
in addition to the liberty which he would there
possess, in common with the white inhabitants.
The negro concealed himself on board, and
was not discovered until the schooner had been
several days out from Savannah. When she
arrived at Thornaston, the negro went ashore,
and was about the town several days, very lit
tle notice being taken of him. He disappear
ed, however, as soon as the Savannah pilot
boat came to Thornaston. 11 is owner procur
ed a warrant for his apprehension, and search
was made for him. He was discovered, not
upon a farm belonging to the mate of the
schooner, but concealed in the hay-loft of a
ham bclongingto the estate of the late Gen.
Knox. Tile person who had charge of the
property, saw him concealed in the hay, and
gave immediate notice to his master, who
came and took him, and conveyed him on board
the pilot-boat.
No attempt was made to rescue the slave
from the hands of his master. There was a
gathering of citizens, children and idlers, im
pelled by motives of curiosity, some to see the
slave, and others to observe the progress of the
capture; but no impediment was offered to any
person concerned in the arrest. There is no
anti-slavery society existing in Thornaston. —
But the owner of the slave had chartered the
pilot-boat by the day, and was anxious to be
oft’as soon as lie had secured his property.—
The captain of the boat, as was understood, had
bargained for some lime, to take with him on
his homeward passage, but the owner insisted
on his putting to sea immediately. This was
done without their securing any stores, but
was perfectly needless, so far as any danger of
rescue was to be apprehended. Tlie boat was
spoken by the brig Two-Sisters of Salem, and
supplied, as has been mentioned.
We present this account in justice to the
people of Thornaston, whose intercourse with
the South is frequent and direct, and who have
had no concern whatever in the slavery and
anti-slavery discussions of the present day.—
They have no desire to interfere with the prop
erty of the South, in any way, andean only
wish that a fair statement of this tranction, so
far as they are concerned, should be presented
to their Southern brethren.—[Bos. Courier.
Attempt upon the Express Rider.—
We learn from the Eastern Express Mail Ri
der, that an attempt was made by two or more
persons to stop him by force,on Saturday night
last, about 10 o’clock, when near the village
of Abingdon, in Harford county, on bis route
eastward. The Rider states that, he was wav
laid, with what object lie is ignorant, and that
the first knowledge he had of the fact was the
utterance of a concerted signal by one of them,
and the rush of two persons, from the road
side in front of him. One of them he says
threw a noose, but not being expert at the
lasso, it did not take effect —the other struck
his horse a severe blow on the head.-—But the
Rider held on his way, despite these hindran
ces, and made his escape. [Baltimore Patriot
The Ohio. No river in the world rolls for
a thousand miles a current so smooth and
peaceful. Its eighty tributaries wind through
as many valleys in ten different States. The
first in size, the Tennessee, having pursued a
navigable course through throe States, for more
than one thousand miles, falls into the Ohio,
fifty miles above its mouth. The Cumberland,
sixty-two miles,being navigable for steamboats
to Nashville, and for keel boats three hundred
miles further. The Wabash, one hundred and
thirty miles. Green river, two hundred and
eight miles from the mouth of the Ohio—nav
igable two hundred and one miles, and two
hundred yards wide at its mouth. Kentucky,
live hundred and four miles—navigable one
hundred and fitly miles, and as many yards
wide at its mouth. Great Miami, five hundred
and eighty-two miles. Scioto, seven hundred
and forty-two. Great Kanawha, eight hundred
and fifty miles—navigable sixty-four miles to
the Salines, where annually is made from five
hundred to seven hundred thousand bushels of
salt Great Muskingum, nine hundred and
fifty-one miles. These aro the principal aux-
iliaries which give substance and strength to f
the beautiful Ohio. In its course of qjore than
a thousand miles, it washes six State%and with
its tributaries, has more than five thousand;
miles of navi liable waters. Its main width is !
six thousand yards; with the exception of its
lowest fifiy miles, its average width is more
than one thousand yards. The average rapid
ity of its current is three miles an hour. Its i
average descent in a mile is about six inches.
It sometimes rises fifty or more feet. At a low
water, its surface at Cincinnati is supposed to
be one hundred and thirty feet below the level
of Lake Krie; and four hundred anil thirty
above that of the tide water of the Atlantic
ocean. Such is the Ohio.
Improvement ix Paper Making. At a]
recent sitting of the Society of Arts, .Mr. E.
Cowper addressed the meeting on recent im
provements in paper making. He referred to
the origin of paper making, and to the various
plants (Jrav. ings of which he exhibited) from
which it had been manufactured. Speaking of
the strength of writing papers he produced a
sheet of post quarto, ti e ends of winch lie had
pasted together, and he raised half a hundred
with it. The same sheet, he said, had lifted a
manolf the ground. lie then adverted to Mr.
Babbage's experiments for ascertaining the
color of paper least injurious to the sight, which
he stated to be green; though in printing pi
pers, the type was never more efii.vtive than
when used on white. lie explained the na
ture of the machinery used in the manufacture
of the article, and observed, that, though ob-'
jc-ctions had been urged against it oil its first'
introduction, it would now be impossible t >
produce the required supply by manual labor,
lie showed the construction of the frame for
making wove paper, and perfected two sheet- in
the presence of the Society. In his oi nerva
tions on the length of paper which had been
manufactured, he mention'd that one slice!.'
had been completed which would re .oh four'
miles; and tint an eminent manufacturer,
whose mills were visited by the Duke and
Duchess of Sutherland, had a sheet made to
covert lie lane they had to pass, from the pro
prietor’s residence to the works, of three quar
ters of a mile, and which answered all the pur
poses, of a carpet. He mentioned, tint in the
early attempts to manufacture the article, a
petition had been presented by the proprietors
of mills at Itome to the Pope, praying that some
means mi ,r ht he devise 1 to turn their stocks
into more advantageous property, their ware-!
houses being full, while the manufacturers j
were absolutely in w ant of the necessaries of |
life; and, added Mr. Cw-vper, the mazing
stock referred towns equal to the consumption '
of about three of our Penny Magazines. Re
specting glossy papers, he observed, if they
were too dry, they would crumble into dust;
and he particularly eulogizml Mr. Dickinson’s
improvement, in paper making.
Facts for Smokers. The city of New
Vork contains-i population, sav 0f.J00,000, and
it probably will not be exceeding the truth to
set down one-third of the whole, or 100,000,
as smokers. These 100,000, smokers will each
expend <1 1-1 to ‘25 cents per uav tor cegirs, or
tobacco, to be burned in some other form. In
llavanna, the smoker’s lowest daily expendi
ture is a bit, or Pi I-‘2 cents, but we will sup
pose, what probably is not the f-u-t. that M >r
tin’s subjects expend ‘2O per cent less than the
most economical of her Christian majesty’s,
and consequently that the average cost of
smoking in the city of New Vork is only 10
cents per day; still the total daily cost amounts
to §IO,OOO, or §,'1,(>50,000 per annum. Bread
is another indispensable article of consumption,
and it is ascertained that it is consumed at
about the rate of IB ounces per day for each,
by the whole population. To produce this
quantity of broad, about 10 ounces of flour are
required, or for the whole population of New
York, 1)57 barrels of flour per day, and this
flour, at the present high price of sio per bar
rel, will cost §! 1,570, or.ji-JBO less per day than
the actual cost of the tobacco used by the same
population for smoking only.
Thus a little attention to the subject, disclos
es the painful and disgusting fact, that in the
clear-headed, sharp-sighted, money-making
city of Now York, the inhabitants pay more
for tobacco than they do for bread.
And if to this first cost of the article are add
ed the value of the time wasted in using it. the
value of buildings destroyed by tires kindled
by careless smokers, and last—though not least
—the value of the health and life destroyed bv
the insidious poison, the conclusion must he ad
mitted, that the habit more than it is
worth.—[New York Commercial Advertiser.
Another Niagara. The London Courier
publishes the following extract of a letter, dat
ed Berbice, Nov. 11, IKIB, to a gentleman in
Inverness:—-I have almost forgot, to tell you
of an expedition sent out by the Geographical
Society, to explore the interior and trace the
limits of British Guiana, under a Mr. Schom
berg. On this mission lie proceeded up the
Courantyne River (this is the river that divides
British from Dutch Guiana,or what may be bet
ter understood, Berbice from Surinam; it can
net be less than ten or twelve miles wide when
it discharges itself in the Atlantic Ocean.)
about six weeks ago, and has just returned,
finding it impossible to penetrate beyond tiie
Cataracts, which he describes as tremendous; —
exceeding any he had ever seen except the
Falls of Niagara. From the drawings which j
he has taken, the scenery must be of the most
splendid description—the distance from tin*
coast in a direct line is only 150 miles, follow
ing the course of the river about 800 miles.—
1 le describes the river as upwards of a mile in
w idth, tumbling in successive cataracts from a
height of ninety feet—one of the falls being
forty feet in perpendicular height. Several
small islands covered with trees divide tin
current of the river into distinct falls, and add
much to the beauty of the whole. .Mr. Schoin
borgisnow about to proceed up the Berbice
liver, till he gets into a more southern latitude
than the above cataracts, when he will strike
across in an easterly direction to the Couran
tyne again, and trace that river to its source.

following certificates, one of them signed by
two of the most experienced brick masons in
tlie Southern States. In my absence from
Macon, tlie editors of the Messenger will act
as mv authorized agents.
T. L. SMITH.
We having witnessed the performance of Mr
T. L. Smith's new Brick Machine, invented by
Calvin Waterman, now in operation in this
place, take pleasure in recommending it to the
public, 'flic fact of its performance is its best
recommendation. We timed it, and find that
with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it
made at the rate of two thousand three hund
red and sixty-eight brick per hour. By mould
ing ten hours in a day, it would therefore turn
out twenty-three thousand six hundred per day.
It requires six boys to bear oil’, and four to sand
the moulds, Ac.—together with lour grown
men. Thus fourteen hands are sutficient to
make the above named quantity of the most
beautiful brick per duv.

I have witnessed the performance of Mr T.
L. Smith’s new Brick-making Machine, just
put into operation m this place: and hare no
hesitation in pronouncing it a great and use Ail
improvement on any other method of brick
making I have ever seen, both as to the quality
of the brick and expedition in making. By re
quest I timed the machine Air' half an hour;
the result of that trial shows that with 14 hands
the machine will turn out of beautiful and well
tempered brick, 2,3t>8 in one hour, or about 40
to the minute. JNO. RUTHERFORD.

OWING to the intended removal of one of
tlie Editors and the wish of the other to
devote himself more exclusively to the duties
of his profession, the undersigned offer for sale
the establishment of the Nottli Carolina Jour

newspaper and ornamental type, the list of sub
scribers is tolerably large, and they doubt not
might be greatly augmented by a little exertion.
To any person desirous of embarking in the
business it offers inducements not inferior to
any in the Stale, but to a practical printer they

money that would yield him a more profitable
return. IIYBART A STRANGE.
