THE ADVOCATE.
BRUNSWICK, (Ga.V AUGUST 31, 183?
To the Mayor of Charleston. “A
Mechanic” would respectfully beg leave to
call the attention of our worthy Mayor to the
communication in Tuesday’s Patriot ; it is ’
there suggested that a meeting of the citizens
of Charleston be called by him for the purpose
of taking into consideration the expediency of
asserting our claims upon the Government for
the establishment of a Navy Yard at Charles
ton. A writer in the Courier, recommends
that the Chamber of Commerce should be the
first to move in this business—to this, the Pa
triot replies, that the meeting should be gcaer- \
al, and express the views of our whole com- i
inanity. If it be, as there stated, that the sci- j
entitle officer who so deservedly stands at the
head of his profession;, he who dared to re
monstrate with the government on its timid j
policy of attempting to confine the operations!
of our gallant tars to our own wate.s during
the last war, has added the weight of his i
name and influence to such disinterested and
gallant spirits as Elliott and Kearney in favor]
of this measure. We have every thing to ex-!
pect from the effort about to be made by our j
talented Representative—it is known that j
Commodore Stuart is decidedly in favor of the
establishment of a Navy Yard at Charleston
—many sites the immediate neighborhood of
our city are approved of by him, and his kind
offices in our behalf were tendered to our rep
resentative. The times are propitious , the j
Brunswi(Ji bubble ha» burst—the Boston Com- j
pany of speculators have sold their lots — the !
preparatory idea of a Navy Yard building up a
Town, is abandoned, and the whole scheme of a
Navy Yard at Brunswick is now considered a
mere humbug. The claims of the South can
not be longer overlooked —our peculiar policy
calls aloud for a general rallying point-here,and
the people of tfae South demand it ns a right
The Secretary of the Navy h is said that a de
pot at the South is indispensable, and our pa
triotic fellow-townsman, who has labored in
our cause for ten years past, is now at Wash
ington, and will lend his influence. The ex
pression of the public voice of the people of
Charleston must be heard at Washington.
The Carolina Delegation will appreciate it,
and it is hoped that on the final vote, every
Southern Member will be at his post and will
prefer losing his dinner rather than his vote.
Above is the article which appeared in the
Charleston Courier, and to which we alluded
last week. What may be Com. Stuart’s opin
ion on the subject we know not, and the asser
tions of “ a Mechanic” do not in any degree
enlighten our ignorance ; for a writer who has
shown so much ingenuity in telling unt.uths in
relation to one subject, is not entitled to credit
on any other. Commodore Stuart Will undoubt
ly approve of the site best adapted to the pur
poses of an ival depot. The Commissioners
appointed to examine the Southern harbors
with this particulor object in view, have thus
reported in regard to Charleston : “it would
seem to be established tint the mouth of the
harbor is the main obstacle to its present use
fulness as a naval station, for being deficient
in depth of water, no vessels larger than
sloops of war can pass, and they Only at high
tides and with smooth water.” Add to this
objection the fact that the Bar is rolling,
changing so frequently as to render the navi
gation at all times unsafe, an 1 the unhe.ilthi
ness of the port which must always be severe
ly felt by crews, an 1 the chances of Charles
ton diminish to nothing.
The mistakes to use no harsher term, into
which ‘a Mechanic’ has fallen at the mention of
Brunswick, are almost too ridiculous to be no
ticed. “ The Brunswick Bubble has burst,”
says our veracious Mechanic. If his state
ments of Commodore Stuart’s opinions are not
nearer the truth than this, gross injustice has
been done to that gallant officer. “ The Bos
ton Company of Speculators have sold their
lots.” The Brunswick Company have sold a
few lots, and expended in irnpiovenients, the
good effects of which will be felt for years,
twice as much as they received for those lots,
and are still making' further expenditures.
“The preparatory idea of a navy yard build
ing up a town is abandoned, and the whole
scheme of a navy yard at Brunswick is now
considered a mere humbug.” Who so consid
er it ? Does a mechanic speak with authority?
Has he consulted Congress on the matter ? or
is it only the sage conclusion of this most
“ Forcible Feeble.” We refer this writer to
Lieuts. Pettigru and Ingraham, who examined
the harbor of Brunswick, and can give him
what he stands in need of—correct informa
tion in regard to Brunswick. “Theclaims of
the South cannot be longer overlooked.” We
concur most heartily in this remark, and will
join the Mechanic in all proper efforts to this
end, but we cannot believe the right
course to be in underrating the port at the
South which the Commissioners hive reported
to be decidedly superior and the best adapted
for a Navy Yard. An lin leaving our worthy
Mechanic, we recommend to him by all means
to make himself acquainted with his work be
fore lie undertakes another job of this kind.
Tor the last two months the papers have
been filled with accounts of Fourth of July
Celebrations. The observance of the day is
certainly praiseworthy, and we trust never
will fall into neglect. But then “ too much
pudding will choke a dog,” and there maybe
such a thing as a surfeit of patriotism. There
uiust have been no less than one thousand cel
ebrations this year, and every oration has been
commended as a most remarkable effort of in
tellect, a splendid specimen of eloquence, an
elaborate ess ly on the history of the country
and the philosophy of Government. We are
foin to believe th it in this multitude of orators
there must be safety, and all doubts must be
dissipated which may have been entertained
** to the perpetuity of our institutions and she
purity of our Republic. Another remarkable
and most fortunate circumstance is, that these
addresses are usually the first offerings of the
critors, firstlillgs of Rhetoric. We under
take to say that at least one half of these speci
mens are the work of very young men, just ar
rived at majority. And if such be their open
ing, what shall be their closing glories ? We
may look forward then w ith glowing anticipa
tions, to the time when these young gentlemen
shall fill the high stations to which their preem
inent talents entitle them. But to treat the
subject seriously. Is not the course of the
newspaper press exceedingly injudicious in
this respect ? Is not the praise bestowed on
such occasions not only in liscriminate but in
jurious. Huitful to the be-fiattered orators
and equally so to the community. The dayis al
most universally seized upon as the mcatis of
adding to the flames of political excitement,
increasing party bitterness, and educating the
rising generation for partizans and not Amer
icans. And the presses of the different par
ties teem with extravagant and in fact bur
lesque accounts of ordinary addresses and
more indifferent dinners. Os the toasts too,
how few are really what they ought to be.
Unpopular as may be the opinion, we cannot
i avi id expressing an objecti nto the celebration
|of the day as generally conducted. And
most heartily do we rejoice tint for this year at
least, the tide of speeches, dinners and toasts
begins to abate, and the papers contain some
thing beside the ott told tale of “ eloquent
orations,” “sumptuous dinners,” and “spirited
sentiments.”
\\ ayne Springs. Some weeks since we made
a passing notice of this delightful retreat, and
our Northern readers, we know, will thank us
for giving them another glimpse at the society
of the South in the summer. Last week we
attended a dancing party given by the ladies
ot W aynesville, and though in the midst of the
dog days, never did we pass a pleasanter eve
ning. We made a great bargain in driving
sixty miles for the pleasure, and intend to
make more such trades should they be in the
market. A day or two after, we dined with
the gentlemen’s club, and found that almost
as agreeable as the ladies’ party —but not
quite. The only unpleasant moment of the
week was that of separation ; and if we may
judge the feelings of others by our own, noth
ing but the stern calls of duty can induce any
one to leave a spot where
“ Stranger is a holy name.”
In this age of experiments we intend to
leave the Advocate to tell its own story for two
or three weeks, and again partake of the hos
pitalities of that “ festive place." When the
advantages of a healthy situation, a most
agreeable neighborhood and a fine school are
taken into consideration, it is a matter of sur
prise tint the many beautiful sites are not oc
cupied.

The Wandering Piper. The mystery
of the Wandering Piper is unveiled. Having
finished his tour he discloses his name, viz :
Alexander Ghrame Stuart, De Vere,
the title having been bestowed by George the
Fourth. It appears that on his arrival at New
York, he was GOO dollars out of pocket, having
punctiliously bestowed the proceeds of his pi
ping, upwards of 20,000 dollars in charity.—
The deficiency was made up by a final exhibi
tion of his musical power, at which 400 dollars
was paid for his admission ticket, by a South
ern gentleman. [Charleston Courier.
[A later Charleston Paper notices the above
in a communication, apparently from a foreign
er (Scotchman) declaring Hie Piper an impos
tor—that his ni me was Me Donald, and that
before coming to this country he was only a
poor Singing master—that he was very loth to
recognize an old acquaintance in Charleston,
who knew his cgal character and name,and that

tantiatexhese facts,] Macon Messenger.

BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE.
Virginia Gold Mines. We were among
those who beheld the transactions in Gold
Stock some twelve months past, with regret,
as we regarded the public feeling on the sub
ject as too enthusiastic and visionary. There 1
is now no doubt but we were correct that
there was a gold mania raging among us. It
resulted in the injury, no doubt, of many, who
entered it with too much eagerness, and with
expectations too sanguine. These expecta
tions induced the assumption of responsibili
ties which, from disappointment, many are
much troubled to meet. The test of actual
operations his shown that the immediate and
immense yield which many anticipated as cer
tain, and upon which was based the well re
membered and sudden advances in the stock, lias
not been realized. These extensive calcula
tions prove altogether ideal—fanciful. It is
unfortunate, in a measure, too; for although
no very great distress may result, the reaction
which has followed, which always does fol
low such visionary and ill-founded specula
tions, has lowered the value of Gold Stock,
and profit arising from mining operations, in
public estimation, to a level considerable be
low the proper one.
All experience shows, that whatever re
ceives in the market, no matter troin what
cause an undue and forced value—a value not
founded upon matter of fad estimates, which,
and which only, can ascertain the true value,
must sooner or later, with the unerring certain
ty of water, find its proper level. This has
been the case with Gold Stock. Some actual
ly imagined that the produce of the mines
would give each stockholder a dividend suffi
ciently large, before the secorui requisition be
came due, to meet it, without troubling him in
the least. Others, that the stock would ad
: vance, from the great richness of the mine, to
i such a rate as to make any one holding ten
shares easy for life ;or a very rich man. These
were errors set afloat in various forms; and
i experiments have proved them so to be. So
i fairly was this mania fixed, that some rather un
profitable copper and other mines were dispos
ed of before the public were satisfied of tiiose
who brought them to market Thinking it
better to secure the slock and then examine
statements.
All this has been as the dream of the past
night: we have wakened and opened our eyes
and find it so. A prejudicial influence may
for a time operate on the mining interest; but
!it can be but a little while. Every thing in
this state of pressure is in favor. While the
j markets are stagnant, and paper depreciating,
; gold is at a premium —while the exptiises of
j mining are decreased one third al least, its
precious product is greatly enhanced in value.
] And we shall find that though the holders of
gold stock will not make a fortune on each
share, they will get a handsome Dividend, pay
ing well for labor and time at least, on their
i shares.
We have flattering accounts from various
mines. The Congo Soco mine, in Goochland
county, incorporated the past winter, from an
experiment lately made, superintended by Gen
Geo. M. Cooke, oil 90 bushels of ore taken
from the whole depth of the vein, including
every particle of rock, yielded $2,18 cts. per
bushel. Tlie 90 bushels were reduced in a
stamp mill in 18 hours. The washings were
then amalgamated in a Burke Rocker, and
when melted 205 dwts. and 6 grs. of Gold
were found, which at 9(5 cts. the dwt. is equal
to $19704, equal to $2lB per hundred bushels.
The Mill having made this 90 bushels in 18
hours shows her capacity to reduce 120 bush
els in 24 hours; which, from the same rock,
will produce $261 60, in that time or $1,308
in five days or one week, (allowing one day in
a week for stoppage, or $5,232 in four weeks,
equal to $62, 784 in one year; and this from
six stamps only.
The Richmond mining company of Gooch
land, we understand from good authority, are
doing remarkably well. They are realizing
SBO. per day, and their expenses are stated at
about S2O. Most of the companies are in
good spirits, progressing with confidence freed
from mania. We are pretty sure fair profits
will be realized, but we hope that no more
wild speculations may be set on foot They
are ruinous in Gold Mining as well as every
tiling else. Even Gold may be over-valued.
[Richmond Compiler.
General Gaines. The Boonville (Mis
souri) Herald of the Ist ult. says:—“The
war-worn veteran, General E. P. Gaines, of
the U. S Army, passed here this morning on
board the steamboat Wilmington, on his way
to Fort Leavenworth—the object of his trip
being, as he informed us, to suppress the symp
toms of Indian hostility manifested in that
quarter. He authorises us to state, that the
Potawatamies will be removed from the Platte
at all hazards, as soon as the Government of
the United States shall authorise him to pro
ceed against them. We consider ourselves
peculiarly fortunate in having the protection
of our frontier committed to this venerable
specimen of American valor. May Heaven
speed his progress. He carries safety, if not
immediate peace, to upper Missouri.”
Time. Time is the most Indefinable, yet
paradoxical of things ; the past has gone, the
future is not come, and the present becomes
the past even while we attempt to define it,
and like the flash of the lightning at once ex
ists and expires. Time is the measurer of all
things, but is itself immeasurable, and the
grand discloser of all things, but is itself un
disclosed. Like sp ice it is incomprehensible
because it has no limits, and it would be still
more so if it had. It is more obscure in its
sources than the Nile, and in its termination
than the Niger; and advances like the swift
est torrent. It gives wings of lightning to
pleasure, but feet of lead to pain, and lends
expectation a curb, but enjoyment« spur. It
robs beauty of her charms to bestow them on
her picture, and builds a monument to merit
but denies it a house : it is the transient and
deceitful flatterer of falsehood, but the tried
and final friend of truth. Time is the iribst
subtle yet the most insatiable of depredators,
and by appearing to take nothing, is permitted
to take all ; nor can it be satisfied until it has
stolen the world from us and us from, the
world. It constantly flies yet overcomes all
things by flight, and although it is the present
ally, it will be the future conqueror of death.
Time, the cradle of hope, but the grave of
ambition, is the stern corrector of fools, but
the silutiry counsellor of the wise, bringing
all they dread to the one, and all they desire
to the other; but like Cassandra- it warns us
with a voice that even the sagest discredit too
long, and the silliest too late. Wisdom walks
before it: and repentance behind it; be that,
has made it his friend will have little to fear
from his enemies; but he that has made it his
enemy will have but little to hope from bis
friends. [Lacon,

Boundary Question. Our neighbors in
Maine are making a most desperate clatter
about the arrest and incarceration of Mr.
Greelv; and threaten to bestow on us the
whole measure of their vengeance.
We understand the subject was discussed
in our legislative hall on Tuesday last, and
that a motion was made and adopted, to peti
tion to his Majesty on the necessity of having
the matter adjusted.
It is certainly high time that something
definite was done on the subject, as the longer
the same is delayed, more difficulties will be
thrown ih its way, as wilderness land is yearlv
becoming more valuable especially to our
neighbors, whose forests are fist failing to
supply the consumption of their innumerable
saw mills; and therefore it is not to be ex
pected that they will forego an inch of this
disputed territory without a hard struggle.
We do not apprehend that any thing serious
will grow out of this present affair, but trust it
"’ill have the effect of calling the attention of
both governments to the subject as they appear
to be slumbering over it, and they will see the
necessity there exists of having it brought to
a speedy termination.— Miramichi, New Bruns

TO FRUITERS, *
E WHITE & WM. HAGER, respectfully
• inform the Printers of the United States,
to whom they have been individually known
as established letter founders, that they have
now formed a co-partnership in said business,
and an extensive experience, they hope to be
able to give satisfaction to all who may favor
them with their orders.
The introduction of machinery in place of
the tedious and unhealthy process of casting
type by hand, a desideratum by the European
founders, was by American ingenuity, a heavy
expenditure of time and money on the part of
our senior partner, first successfully accom
plished. Extensive use of "the machine-cast
letter, has fully tested and established its su
periority in every particular, over those cast
by the old process.
The letter foundry business will hereafter
be carried on by the parties before namsd, un
der the firm of White, Hager & Cos. Their
Specimen exhibits, a complete series, from
Diamond to Sixty-four Lines Pica. The Book
and News type being in the most modern style.
White, Hager & Cos. are Agents for the sale
of the Smith and Rust Printing Presses, with
which they can furnish their customers at man
ufacturers’prices ; Chases, Cases, Composing
Sticks, Ink, and every article used in the print
ing business, kept for sale and furnished on
short notice. Old type taken in exchange for
new at nina cents per lb.

from many, upon whom he relies, with a pleas
ing confidence, that himself nor the public,
through him, will be disappointed in their ex
pectations of its character and success.

vehicle of general News. The cause of thf
South, will be its cause, and the advancement
of her interest its chief aim and desire. Asa
paper, it will espouse no party; the important
affair* of Government, however, will not he
suffered to pass unnoticed—and all sensibly
judicious communications on this subject, nro
vided they are free from party epirit, willre
ceive particular attention.
Persons obtaining ten responsible subscribers
to the Aspirant, will be entitled to one copy
gratia.

ery Saturday, in the city of Macon, at Two',
Dollars per annum—s! 25 for six months—
