The Canal. With great pleasure we an nounce that this work is now let out to Messrs F. & A. Pratt, the enterprising contractors of the Savannah Hail Road. These gentle men have been engaged in this kind of busi ness for many years, having been employed on the New York and Erie Canal. They are under contract to complete the Canal by the first of January next. We refer our readers to the advertising columns for the proposals of these gentlemen to employ negroes. They have already engaged a large numbered in a few days they will commence the work. For the Brunswick Advocate. Mr. Editor: It may b*necessary to the future fame of the beautiful and fleet boat ‘Car oline King,’ to state that in her contest against the ‘Thomas F. Bryan,’ on the 16th, for the club purse, she was rowed under two dis advantages, namely,—the tide, and having tw o oars less than the Bryan. The latter boat is an acknowledged Jirat rater, and was fully ex pected to take the lead with eight oars against six. The Caroline King was merely entered' to give the Thos. F. Bryan an opportunity of showing her greatest speed, to afford sport to the spectators, and to prevent her from walk ing deliberately o’er the water unattended, as she must have done, had not the fair Caroline given chase to her. I here assert that the Caroline King, although somewhat in the rear, gave a convincing proof of her great speed, in running so close against such odds, and such a boat as the Thos. F. Bryan. The friends of the Caroline, still hold her an overmatch for any craft that can be found with six and six oars. , BRIM. , Foreign. The packet ship Quebec, has arrived at New York from London via Ports mouth, having left latter place 4th Dec. The news received is not of much importance. A man has been arrested and committed for trial in London, for counterfeiting notes on the Louisiana Bank. The Times states “that Mr. Jaudon has been permitted to open an account w jjphe Bank of Dennison & Cos. but only as a pri vate individual, and not in his character of agent of the Bank of the United States.” Mr. Stevenson, the American minister, trans acted business on the 2d of December, at the Foreign Office, also with the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The average value of silk exported to the United States from France in 1834, 1835, and 1836, was $9,300 000; and the average weight of cotton imported during the same three years into France, was 40 millions of kilogrammes, or 35,052 tons. Later. The ship Cora, at Boston, from Liverpool, brings dates to 1 1th Dec. They furnish nothing later than previous arrivals. The transactions in the cotton market, for the week, up to Friday evening, the 10th, had again been very large, and at an advance of l-4d on the middling and fair class of Ameri can. The better qualities remain stationary. Sales of the week, including 5800 American, were 32,810 bags. The steamer Cincinnati, Capt Brooks, ar rived at this port yesterday morning, from Clarksville via Savannah, having on board 29 Seminole Indians, 5 tvarriors and 24 women and children, in charge of Lieut Rowland, (U. S. A.) All of which were landed at Sul livan’s Island, and confined at Fort Moultrie. [Charleston Courier. From the New' York Courier, Jan. 9. We learn from Capt. Wells of the Steam boat Utica, that Mr. Van Rennselaer and his followers had all left Navy Island, with their various supplies of arms, ammunition, &c., their destination unknown. This account was brought to Albany by passengers from Utica, who reported also that the western mail had arrived at Albany a short time previous to the Utica’s living for New York. From the Augusta Chronicle, Jan 10. Yesterday at 12 o’clock, the privilege of subscribing for 1600 shares of stock of the Georgia rail road and banking com pany, were offered for sale before the door of the banking house in this city. The directors limited it at two per cent, pre mium. Only 300 shares were taken, at the following rates, 10 at 5 1-2 per cent, premium; 240 at 5 per cent, do ; 50 at 2 per cent. do. Exploring Expedition. —lt affords as unmingled satisfaction,says the New York Courier of the6thinst. to announce that Capt. Lawrence Kearney has been ap pointed to, and accepted the command of this expedition.’ We need not repeat that in our opinion, a better selection could not have been made. His appointment renders certain the departure of the ex pedition as at present organized.—[Phila delphia Gaz. Jan 6. A useful discovery. The difficulty of removing horses from a stable or house when on fire, is well known. The sight of the fire seems to have a paralyzing ef fect, and they will remain immoveable in their tracts till consumed by the confla gration, in spite of every effort to lead or drive them out of the reach ofthe flames. In this way, thousands of noble animals have been sacrificed, when Y> save them would have been an easy matter, if this singular infatuation of the animal could be overcome. The manner ofdoing this has, we understand, lately been discover ered. A writer states, that horses may be brought out of a stable on fire by merely throwing over their backs the sad dle or harness to which they have been accustomed. They will then be led out as docile and tractable as usual. This if certainly a useful discovery, and well worth the attention of every reader. * + m ■ i • The following paragraph in relation to the lost Internal Improvement Bill, we copy from the Columbus Sentinel and Herald: Posterity, it is said, always renders up justice to the past in proportion as it has been merited; if so, we most cordially pity those members of the Legislature who so strenuously opposed the great In ternal Improvement Bill upon its appear ance in the Senate. The bill had passed the Representative branch—to the praise of that body be it spoken—but by a sys tem of management unworthy of so dis tinguished a body, it was not put upon its final passage in the Senate until the last night of the session, and then at a very late hour ! Many of the members had “taken French leave,” others were fret fully anxious to “close the concern,” a few, we were informed, who had been friends of the bill, “jumped Jim Crow” at the thventh hour, and the last and clos ing scene of the exhibition with which our eyes were astonished, was a grand display of “still vaulting by the whole company when the measure was swept by the board, which, if passed, would have exalted Georgia to the highest pefint of prosperity, and ranked her proudly a inongst her most flourishing sisters! — Whether our State shall live and flourish, or whether she shall lanquish and die, undoubtedly depends upon the progress of that great system of Internal Improve ment already begun. Shall it be foster ed, sustained and encouraged, or shall it be abandoned? We trust that hereafter this question will be carried up to the bal lot box, throughout the State, arid there let the voice oj independent freemen speak new life into the system of Internal Im provement, and bid it go on prospering and to prosper. The prosecution of the great State en terprize to connect our waters w’ith the Tennessee, we trust, has been ensured by the bill passed on that subject. It au thorizes the disposal of State scrip, at an interest not to exceed six per cent., and to the amount of half a million a year, to prosecute the work. It is a great a no ble work, and when accomplished will renovate the State, and turn old Georgia young again. Success to the w'ork. [Milledgeviile Recorder. On the last night of the session of the Leg islature, the opponents of the Internal Im provement Bill, contrived by reason of the the thinness of the Senate to defeat it. The measures it proposed are only delayed, not crushed; but we regret by this unwise policy, that Georgia is still doomed by the tardiness of her Legislature to remain behind her sister States in the great work of developing her re sources, and increasing the value of the prop erty of her citizens. The great objection to the bill seemed to be, that provision which au thorised surveys of contemplated works of In ternal Improvement to be made at the expense of the State under the direction of the Com missioners. In projecting an entire system, of course many of its features will startle by their novelty. When the Erie Canal was planned by the master mind of a Clinton, there were to be found far seeing statesmen who pronounced the whole scheme a wild and impracticable project The early' experiments of Fulton in steam navigation were derided and laughed at and it was only when the steamboat moved ahead in spite of adverse wind and tide, that the sneerers allowed it sailed better than could have been expected! The plan originally proposed by Mr. King of Glynn, with some immaterial modifications, met our decided good will; but when the bill to carry it into effect was diluted into three separate bills, we argued for the project but lit tle success. Like another “Experiment,” the more it was tinkered, the more it became no better, until finally it was prostrated by the open assaults of its decided opponents, and the malicious support of pretended friends. Complaint, however, is of but little avail. Our object in these remarks was to suggest to the people of Georgia a mode of applying an effectual remedy to this backwardness, on the part of their Representatives. It is unde niably true,that the Legislature of Georgians far behind the spirit of our citizens. \V T oulditnot it not be a good plan to hold Internal Improve ment meeting among the people? Let them meet and deliberate, and lay the result of their de liberations before their Representatives thro’ the press of the State. Make it a matter of record, that the doubter and the popularity seeker may have a beacon to guide their devi ous way. To no portion of our people is the facility of transportation a subject of so much import ance as to the people of Baldwin County, and we would suggest to them the propriety of holding an early meeting on this all important subject [Milledgeviile Journal.

Good Stabling attached to the Ho tel, with faithful and attentive Ostlers. Dec. 21. PROPOSALS For publishing, by subsenption, a work to be entitled Flora Georgiensis. THIS will be, both a Grammar and Diction ary of Botany ; —presenting, first, Vegeta ble Physiology, and, second, a minute and ac curate description of every plant yet discovered in Ge6rgia, together with its medicinal or nox-' ious properties—its English name—its emblem, language, &c. Such a work is much needed, at this time, in our Southern Institutions. We have no text book in Botany, calculated to render the science attractive-. Such as we have, are nothing more than a few disconnected facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iption of a few leaves, roots, flowers, &,c. all tending to excite disgust rather than taste. Students should, as soon as possible, be inducted into the practical part of the science—it is that only which can inspire them with enthusiasm in the prosecution of their researches. We have nev er known a profound botanist, made so, by delving for months over pages treating of sap, alburnum, cambium, and the like. This work will teach pupils, first, the names of the classes and orders in the Linnean system, the method of analysing flowers; and, proceed next, to the examining, collecting and arranging of them into an herbarium. A love for the science be ing thus implanted, it must and will increase, and urge them on to further and further investi gations. We intend that our work shall be, at once, a text book for schools—a pleasing companion for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful friend and companion for gentlemen in their travels, their daily rambles, &c. Finally, it will be enriched with every species of informa tion which can render such a work entertaining and instructive. We solicit the assistance of scientific gentle men throughout the State, in furnishing us with information concerning the names, locality and 1 habits of plants in their immediate vicinity.— Such information will be gratefully and proper ly acknowledged. Postmasters are requested to act as agents in receiving and forwarding us subscriber's names, ] as early as the Ist November. The work will contain from 5 to 700 pages, j octavo, and be furnished to subscribers, in 1 boards, at $5 per copy. It will be issued dur- j ing the next winter, provided the number of j subscribers warrant the expense. All Editors throughout the Southern States. \ friendly to the diffusion of scientific knowledge, j who will insert this notice, and forward us a copy of their paper, will be entitled to one copy ofthe work.

A New Advertisement, .1 .Yew Tear, and a .Yew Inducement, for sub scribing to the Weekly Messenger! THE cheapest and decidedly the most pop ular Faiqily Newspaper in the U States, with a circulat ion of many thousand subscrib ers The American Weekly Messenger is published every Wednesday, onheautil’ul white paper, ofthe largest class, at $2 per annum, or ten subscriptions for $lO. Its contents are adapted to the wants of the Farmer, Mechanic, Tradesman, Agriculturist, Merchant and Manufacturer. This Journal wag commenced on the first of January last, and, without any previous effort to herald its success, went rnto immediate and rapid circulation. Such was the unprecedent ed popularity which attended its projection that, in übout six months from the period it was first issued, not less than fifteen thousand names were embraced on its subscription lists! 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 the Messenger embraces as much origimal mutter as any other periodical of the present d;ly. The diffusion of useful and wholesome information, with a view to the cultivation of a correct knowledge of Polite Literature, is the chief object at which it aims. Arrangements have been entered into, by which the publish er will be assisted in the editorial department by the talents of three or four gentlemen of distinguished abilities—and it is intended to introduce several important improvements," which will bespeak additional popularity for its columns. As the character and leading features of this Journal are well known throughout the United States, it will be superfluous to enter into a recital ol the same. The season is approach ing, liowevpr, when the reading public are ex pected to make their selections for the next year, and we deem it advisable, therefore, to lurnish a brief and explicit statement of our terms, which we hope will prove satisfactory, and be implicitly observed : * A ten dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pay for ten copies of the Messenger for one year ! A five dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid,-will pity for four copies for one year ! Two dollars, paid- in advance, is the price of an individual subscription for one? year One dollar, in advance, will pay for a 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 YV. E. Burton, Esq. O ’Remittances from Clubs, to be entitled to tlm full advantages of the liberal terms here offered, must he made in sums of five’s and ten s gif current Bank notes—any lesser a morfnt, forwarded by mail, will be classed a* long with individual subscriptions.

At the expiration of the term subscribed for and paid by dluhs, the invariably be discontinued, unless the advance money is for warded previous to that time,aud the subscrip tions renewed, in the manner above specified. ’lt will be a great saving to the publisher, and facilitate the early mailing ofthe paper, if the individual forwarding the sum required for four, or ten, or more subscribers, when they are located together, will allow the paCK<se to be addressed to the Postmaster, or sonirt one a niong themselves, who being made acqifainted with the names of the Club, can as reaaJly dis- if directed separately. * All letters mnst be post paid, or they will not be taken out of the office.
