The Report of the Joint Select
Committee of Internal Improvements.
We have read with great pleasure, the a
ble and interesting report of this Com
mittee, presented by Mr. T. B. King.
The views presented on this important
subject, deserve the attentive perusal of
every member, and the proposition offer
ed, in the hill submitted hy the Commit
tee, commends itself to the considerate
action of the Legislature. The inode
proposed, as to the superintendancc of
the construction of the rail roads, being
made by the authority of the State, and
o' obtaining the means for carrying on the
work, are worthy, of mature reflection,
and need only to be studied, to convince
every one of the propriety of their adop
tion. W e regret, that we are prevented
from laying the Report and Bill before
our readers in to-day’s paper. We shall
take pleasure in presenting it in our next,
it the space of our columns will admit.

Accounts from Brunswick, Georgia,
give the most flattering statement of the
prospect of success to that new city. The
Company here who are interested in that
enterprise, have every reason to be satis
fied ; if self-interest alone is considered,
they have nothing to fear. If the com
mercial importance of Georgia and the
South is taken into the account, the es
tablishment of that city and a naval de
pot upon the only deep waters on that
coast, cannot fail to give character and
wealth to the whole section of the coun
try. The mildness of the climate, and
the total freedom from all noxious vapors
to which most other places at the South
are subject, will soon invite invalids to re
sort there. Many who have resided there
through the year say, if one would escape
from tiie severities of the North, and a
void the dangers of the South, Brunswick
is the place for them. [Boston Galaxy.
Mouth of the Mississippi. Anoth

Tiif. Diamond. At a meeting of the |
British Scientific Association at Liver
pool, in September last, a paper was read,
written by Sir David Brewster, on a newi
structure of the diamond. It is stated
that diamond lenses had been used in sin
gle microscopes of high power, but that
they were unlit for the purpose, having a
double refracting power, and producing
double images ; that the surface was cov
ered with parallel lines of vein®, some of
which refracted more than others. It was
a singular fact that in a body of such so
lidity, there should be layers of different
degrees of hardness, possessing different
powers of rafractiori, and having different
specific gravities! The diamond was,
without doubt, a vegetable substance;
and, i:i its pristine state, must have been
soft like amber or git tj, ami expanded by
the gaseous bodies imprisoned within its
cavities. [ Baltimore (Jaxeu*. I

The life of an American Citizen at

Mr. Moss, of Chazy, took a passenger
from this village, on Thursday last, to
carry to Champlain.—Reached Mr. Nich
ols’ tavern in Champlain village about
two o’clock Wednesday morning—awoke
Mr. Nichols and built a fire in the bar
room. Soon the bailiff ofOdletown with
three other men all armed entered. The
I bailiff enquired of Mr. Nichols if such
men, Canadians of the radical party,were
j there. Mr. Nichols replied there were
! travellers in the house he did not know.
! The bailiff wanted to search the house.
Mr. Nichols told him he should not search.
The bailiff threatened to blow out Mr.
Nichols’ brains. Mr. Nichols, with true
Yankee spirit, dared him to fire. The
altercation continued some time, during
it Mr. Moss distinctly saw from thewin
jdow by the aid of the light in the room a
number of mounted armed men near the
! house.
; The party in the house finding that Mr.
Nichols was determined at all hazards, to
| protect his lodgers, finally left the house,
joined those outside and rode off Let

published every Wednesday, on beautiful white
paper, of the largest class, at $2 per annum, or
ten subscriptions for §lO.
Its contents are adapted to the wants of the
Farmer, M cliadiic. Tradesman, Agriculturist,
Merchant and Manufacturer.
This Journal Was commenced on the first of
■launary last, and, without any previous effort
to herald its success, went inta immediate and
rapid circulation. Such was the unprccedciit
: ed popularity which attended its projection
j that, in about six months from the period it
: was first issued, not less than fifteen tiiousmd
; names were‘embraced on its subscr ption fists!
which have been ever since constantly and
rapidly increasing, and now bid fair to super
cede in extent and stability every other pub
lication which has existed in the literary world.
!• it is generally conceded that the contents of
1 the Messenger embraces us much origimul
mutter as any other periodical of the present
day. The diffusion of useful and wholesome
intormat ion, with a view to the cultivation of a
correct knowledge of I’olite Literature, is the
. chief object at which it anus. Arrangements
have been entered inta, by which the pubfisn
er will be assisted in the editorial department
[ by the talents of three or four gentlemen oi
distinguished abilities—and it is intended to
introduce several important improvements,
’ Wli.eli will bespeak addit ona! popularity for
its columns.
As the character and leading sea ures of tins
Journal are well known throughout the United
States, it will be superfluous to enter into a
rec.tal ot the same. Tin* season is approach
ing, however, when the reading public arc ex
pected to make their selections tor the next
year, and we deem it advisable, therefore, to
urnish a brief and explicit statement of our

and be im Illicitly observed :

paid, will pay for ten copies of the Messenger
for one year ! A live dollar bill, forwarded by

single subscription for six months only.
A five dollar note will pay one year’s sub
scription to the Weekly Messenger and also
the Gentleman’s Magazine, edited by W. E.
Burton. Esq.
O'Remittances from Clubs, to lie entitled
to the full advantages of the liberal terms here
offered, must be made in sums of five’s and
ten sos current Bank notes—any lesser a
mount, forwarded by mail, will be classed a
long with individual subscriptions.
A premium of FORTY NOVELS, neatly
and appropriately bound, containing the pro
ductions of many of the celebrated 'writers oi
the present day, will be presented to any Agent
forwarding forty subscribers, and the pay in
