THE ADVOCATE.
BRUNSWICK, (Ga.). AUGUST 17, 1837.
A late number of the Charleston Mercury
contains a long communication recommend
ing the temporary suspension of the rail road
from Charleston to the Ohio, and that instead
of constructing a rail road over the mountains,
the Charlestonians should avail themselves of
the labors of the Georgians! The modest
proposal of this writer is, that a rail road shall
be carried from the trank of the Tennessee
road to Augusta, and there be connected with
the rotten log road bo Charleston. Should
this scheme meet with favor from the citizens
of this State, the only benefit derived from the
expenditure of the large sums requisite for the
construction of the great thoroughfare to the
Tennessee, will be to render Georgia still
more dependent on Charleston and the North
ern cities. •
Why should the wealth of this State be em
ployed in building up cities in other States,
when within her own borders she possesses a
Port superior in every respect to any which
her neighbors can display. Georgia and Caro
lina are competitors for the trade of the West-
The one has a healthy depot & a route the grea
fbr part of which is easily constructed. The
other has a most sickly depot and the route so
difficult that already she despairs of complet
ing it Georgia therefore has all the chances,
or rather certainties, and now Carolina propos
es to seize the prize by diplomacy. She is
like the old man of the sea, crippled and weak,
unable to walk and extremely desirous that
Georgia should aid her, but we really believe
Georgia will act on the principle that “charity
should begin at home,” and will not forego all
the advantages her position confers, for the
sake of befriending a foreign city which
has drawn so much of* its riches from her
trade. Georgia is already rich in agricultural
wealth, and ere many years her commercial
operations will be such as her ample means
justify. When her various canals and rail
roads shall be completed, the harbor of Bruns
wick will be whitened by the canvass of the
numerous ships employed in bearing the ex
ports and imports of the richest State of the
South. The effect of agriculture and com
merce are reciprocal, their interests are the
same, and whenever this port shall have a safe
and easy communication wit® the interior by
means of her canal and roads, the profits of the
planter and farmer will be augmented and the
amount of land under improvement very much
increased.
The profits of commerce when conducted
by enterprize and skill are such as to create
cities without any back country to sustain
them. Such, for instance, were the Italian
cities of the middle ages: or to come near
er home, such is the Island of Nantucket —a
barren sand bank, just fitted to dry a few fish,
but which contains more wealth for the num
ber of its inhabitants,than any spot in the union.
Georgia, on the other hand, presents a fertile
and extensive country, without a port. How
then must that city grow which starts in busi
ness on the capital of Georgia, and how much
w ill the State be benefitted by a commercial
city, such as her trade can and will create. —
All these advantages must how*ever be lost
if the Charlestonians are permitted to divert
the trade to their city.
The brig Franklin, Skofield, of Portland,
from New York, bound to Doboy Island, ex
perienced a severe gale on 6th inst, when
off Sapelo Island. It blew so hard she could
not carry sail, nor lay to, and they were com
pelled to scud her. Shortly after made land,
which proved to be the North end of Cum
berland Island. In crossing the Bar she struck
three times. The Captain had the lan
yards cut away when the brig struck, in
order to have every thing clear, but she soon
deepened her water; and shortly after the hur
ricane increased so as to take both masts out
of her.
At the commencement of the gale, Capt
Skofield saw a schooner to leeward—all of
a sudden she disappeared. They had been
running before the wind, however, about
fifteen minutes when they saw her again bot
tom up: No one to be seen on or about the
wreck.
A schooner supposed to be the William and
Henry, of Charleston, was driven ashore on the
beach of Jekyl Island, during the gale, and it
is thought tliis is the vessel above alluded to.
An empty trank with the letters “Y. or V.
Chesal, St Augustine,” has been picked up
on the Island, supposed to have drifted ashore
from tliis schooner.
The mate of the Franklin came up to this
city to proctire stores for {he brig, from whom
we learned the abov^tarticulara.-
The late gale has been felt on the whole sea
board, bqt with greater severity at the South.
At St Mary’s, we learn several steamboats
and vessels were driven into the fields. The
cotton crop on the coast is very much injur
ed. The damage has been so extensive, that
it must affect favorably the price of cotton.
From the Savannah Georgian, we copy the
following catalogue of disasters :
The Gale. As apprehended by us, ac
counts are coming in which prove that serious
disasters, the effects of the gale of Saturday
and Sunday have occurred. We are indebt
ed to Capt. Mills of the steamer Camden, ar
rived yesterday, for the follow ing. The gale
was very severe at St. Marys in this State.
Many out buildings,fences,&c blown down. On
the Salillaß the crops were very much injured
by the wind, and thereby inundated.
The devastation has extended itself to the
St Johns, on which river the crops are said
to be ruined.
From the same scource we have heard of
the following causualities:
The steamer Chatham, ashore south end of
Amelia Island, in a bad situation, across a log.
The steamer McLean has gone to her relief.
Steamer Florida, broke from her fastenings
and drifted upon a wharf at St Marys. She*
has been got off with little'or no injury.
Sloop Bolivar,•Richardson, drifted 9 miles
into the marsh, and lies 600 yards from the
bed of the river. Sloop Virginia, Chevalier,
is in the same situation near by.
Steamboat Charleston, parted her cables aiyl
drifted ashore at the Sisters on the St Johns.
She has since been got off.
The steamer Forester, after having dragged
six miles over the marsh, is high and dry
some 300 to-400 yards from Bulls River.
Schr. George &. Mary,Willey, from Charles
ton, for St Augustine, was lost on Tuesday
night Bth inst 12 miles North of St Augus
tine—crew saved.
A schooner with a black bottom ashore on
Wednesday on Cumberland beach.
Brig Favorite drifted over St John’s bar and
sunk at Jacksonville w harf. Her cargo U. S.
Stores lost
Sloop Ann, Latham, drifted seven miles in
to the woods, about 600 yards from the river.
The St Mary’s Revenue Cutter drifted a-,
bout ten miles into the woods and is at a con
siderable distance from the river.
A sloop (name unknown) is ashore on Tiger
Island.
A sloop sunk near Fernandina, her mast
barely visible.
Piracy. The American Barque Talent.
Capt Jenkins, on her voyage from Messina to
Boston fell in with a brig showing Spanish
colors, and ordered to heave to, and send a
boat on board. While performing this act,
two six pounders loaded with grape and round
shot, were fired into her. Capt Jenkins was
shamefully abused while on board the pirate.
The Talent was stripped of every moveable of
value. The Pirate was apparently an Ameri
can craft.

Distressing Occurrence. We are truly
sorry to learn, that on Monday the 7th inst
while Mr. S. L. Myers, of Satilla, in this coun
ty, was engaged in falling trees for the purpose
of repairing his fence, which had been mostly
blown down by the storm, the day previous,
he unfortunately felled a tree on his little son,
about three years of age, which crushed him
to death in an instant Mrs. Myers, the moth
er of the unfortunate little sufferer, was at the
time seated on a log, but a few feet from the
deceased, with her little infant at the breast*
How truly may it be said, “that in the midst
of life we are in death.” A.
We further learn that the crops on Satilla,
both corn and cotton, w-ere nearly destroyed
by the storm.

The late Gale. —After a few hours of
“grim reposethe gale, which commenced
here on the morning of the Ist inst, revisited
us on Sunday last with augmented violence
carrying away one of our awaken
ing serious fears for some of the bouses on the
BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE
liver, which, however, it spared. It was unac
compained by thunder or lightning, which are
usually of great severity in this part of Flori
da. The sun has again dispensed his beams
to us, and the elemental strife seems to have
subsided. [Jacksonville Courier.
Schooner George &. Mary.—‘AVe
in our last, that fears were entertained for the
safety, of this vessel, which was seen at an
chor off our bar on the morning of the 31st
ult, unable to come over in consequence of
an adverse wind. On the following day the
late severe gale commenced, and, nothing hav
ing been seen or heard of the Schooner since
then, serious fears were entertained for the
safety of the lives of those on board. On Wed
nesday a gentleman came into town from Man
darin, who stated that a person, just arrived at
that place, had informed him that the George
& Alary lay a total wreck on the shore south
of the St. Augustine Light House, and that
all on boardliad perished ! We are, however,
happy to be able to state, that though the
Schooner was wrecked on the shore south of
this, no lives were lost—the passengers having
all reached St Augustine in safety. The ves
sel, we are informed, went entirely to pieces
on the beach. Her cargo, being much dam
aged, has since been sold.
She was insured. [lb.

>The seaman, Mr. Cote, is in this city at pres
ent, and substantiates the account
St. Simons, August 9, 1837.
Shipwreck—Fourteen Lives Lost.—
A sailor, by the name of Abraham Cote, who
says that lie is, as he believes, the only sur
vivor of the St Augustine packet schooner S.
S. Mills, of IK) tons burden, bound to Charles
ton, and upset off Jekyl Island, in 7 fatlioms
water, and all perished but himself. This
melancholy disaster occurred during the gale
on Sunday, the 6th instant, about 11 o’clock
in the morning. There were on board, 15 in
all, among them were one white woman and
two blacks, all drowned, in the cabin. Mr.
Cote reached the middle of Jekyl Island about
an hour after sunset, on a spar. The last he
saw of the wreck it was bottom up, and the
Captain, Mate, and two black seamen, were
on her bottom, and two other men in the boat,
which was full of water. Soon after the boat
passed by him with nobody in it. There was
a schooner in sight when she upset, and ran
down upon her, but as he believes, saved none
of the crew. They were, like himself, floating
about, that is those not already drowned. It
was too rough to keep a boat on the top of the
waves. He remained on Jekyl Island all night,
not knowing that the Island was inhabited,
and seeing the Light-llouse, he came to the
north end of it, and finding a plank, launched
himself upon the sound, and with a paddle he
found on the bank, paddled himself across,
taking the last of the flood tide, and landed
near Mr. King’s.
Several fragments of the wreck have come
ashore along the beach,together with the fore
mast, broke below the cap. Tne schooner
was in ballast, two days from St Augustine,
and commanded by Capt. Pellman.
The crops have suffered much by the late
gale ; that, with the severe drought, will make
our crops short The poor fellow came ashore
naked, having tore his clothes off whilst afloat,
that the surges might not have so much hold
of him, and thinks that is what saved him. T.
B. King, Esq. and his overseer, Mr. Redding,
clothed him and treated him with great kind
ness. JOHN GOULD.
We learn that one of the passengers was a
Clergyman from Charleston.
Extract of a letter, dated NewYork, July 26,
to the Editors of the Boston Herald :
Business for the two preceding days has
beep rather brisk. The late arrivals have giv
en an impetus to our merchants, and they
have made good advantage of the opportuni
ties afforded them. Our prospects appear of
the most cheering nature. Letters received
from England and France place the utmost re
liance upon our business men for integrity
and punctuality; hence their renewed exer
tions for the discharging their obligations.—
This is certainly a wise course for the Euro
pean merchants to pursue towards those of A
merica—as when implicit confidence is know n
to be placed in our merchants meeting every
obligation, they will deem no sacrifice too
great to accomplish the realization of suen con
fidence.
If the English and French merchants nad
have supported those few papers in condemn
ing the American merchants in failing to meet
their engagements, what would have been
the consequences ? The merchants would
have become disheartened and have made no
exertions to pay their creditors? but on the
contrary the European houses have become
convinced that it is the will and intention of
our merchants to pay every dollar, no matter
at what sacrifices.
A Gale. Our city on Monday afternoon
was visited by an infknt hurricane, accompani
ed by torrents of rain, which, though it lasted
but a few minutes, did an infinity of mis
chief.
Foremost was the ship Fortune, just arrived
from the Baltic. She had just come up and
anchored off the Battery, and before the sails
could be closed up, the squall struck her. The
foremast went by the board, and carried with
it the main topmast, the head of the mainmast,
and the mizzen top gallant mast Fortunate
ly no person was injured, and the anchor hav
ing good hold, she did not go ashore. The
Danish ship Laura, laying in the East river,
lost her royal and skysailmasts, and had her
sails split
A schooner apparently full of persons, was
upset in the North RiVer, nearly opposite
Beach street, but the Hoboken Ferry Boat
was fortunately near enough to rescue all on
board, who clung to the side of the vessel.
As far as we have been able to ascertain, no
lives were lost
The roof of a three story brick house in
City Hall place, which was being moved to
make room for Centre street, was blown off,
but fortunately nb persons were passing at
the time. Several chimnies were blown down
in Read street, and in that neighborhood, and
in Trinity Church yard ; and on the Batten*
several of the finest trees were dismembered
of many of their limbs.
VVe have heard of no personal accidents, if
we except the case of a young lady who was
caught bv the squall in creasing Chapel street,
by the sth Ward HoteL' She was thrown
down and rolled to a considerable distance be
fore she was picked up, by some gentlemen
passing. [N. Y. Courier & Enquirer.

The introduction of machinery in place of
the tedious and unhealthy process of casting
type by hand, a desideratum by the European

WALDIES LITERARY OMNIBUS.—
Novel and Important Literary Enterprizr..'
Novels, Talcs, Biography, Voyages, Travels,
Reviews, and the News of the Day. It was
one of the great objects of “Waldie's Library,”
“to make good reading cheaper, and to bring
Literature to every man’s door.” This object
has been accomplished; we have given to
hooks wings, andvhey have flown to the up
permost parts of our vast continent, carrying
society to the secluded, occupation to the lite
rary, information to aIL, We now propose still
further to reduce prices, and render the access
to a literary banquet, more than two fold ac
cessible; we gave, and shall continue to give,
in the quarto library, a volume weekly for two
cents a day ; we now propose to giye a volume,
in the sarde period, for less than four cents a
week, and to add, as a piquant seasoning to the
dish, a few columns of shorter literary matters,
and a summary of the news and events of the
day. We know, by experience and calcula
tion, that we can go still further in the matter
of reduction, and wo feel, that there is still
verge enough for us to aim at offering to an
increasing literary appetite, that mental food
which it craves.
The Select Circulating Library, now as ever
so great a favorite, will continue to make its
weekly visits, and to be issued in a form for
binding and preservation, and its price and
form will remain the same. But we shall, in
the first week of January, 1837, issue a huge
sheet, of the size of the largest newspapers of
America, but on very superior paper, also, fill
ed with books, of the newest and mast entertain
ing, though, in their several departments of
Novels, Tales, Voyages, Travels, &.C., select in
their character, joined with reading, such as
should fill a weekly newspaper. By this meth
od, we hope to accomplish a great good ; to en
liven and enlighten the family circle, and to
give to it, at at ekp ense which shall be no con
sideration to any, a mass of reading, that, in
book form, would alarm the pockets of the pru
dent, and to do it in a manner that the most
sceptical shall acknowledge “ the power of
concentration can no farther go.” No book,
which appears in Waldie’s Quarto Library, will
be published in the Omnibus, which will be an
entirely distinct periodical.
Terms. Waldie’s Literary Omnibus, will
be issued every Friday morning, printed on pa
per of a quality superior to any other weekly
sheet, and of the largest size. It will contain,
Ist. Books, the newest and the best that can
be procured, equal every week, to a London
duodecimo volume, embracing Novels, Travels,
Memoirs, &c., and only chargeable with News
paper postage.
2d.-Literary reviews, tales, sketches, notices
of books, and information from “the world of
letters,” of every description.
3d. The news of the week, concentrated into
a small compass, but in a sufficient amount to
embrace a knowledge of the principal events,
political and miscellaneous, of Europe and A
merica.
The price will be TWO DOLLARS to clubs
of five subscribers, where the paper is forward
ed to one address. The clubs of two individ
uals, FIVE DOLLARS ; single mail subscrib
ers, THREE DOLLARS. The discount on
uncurrent money will be charged to the remit
ter ; the low price and superior paper, absolute
ly prohibit paying a discount.
O’ On no condition will a copy ever be sent,
until the payment is receipedjiit advance.
As the arrangements sot .the" prosecution of
this great literary undertaking, are all made,
and the proprietor has redeemed all his pledges
to a generous public for mahy years, no fear of
non-lulfilment of the contract cun be felt. The
Omnibus will be regularly issued, apd will
contain, in a year, reading matter equal in a
inount to two volumes of Rees' Cyclopedia, for
the small sum mentioned above. Address (post
