THE ADVOCATE. BRUNSWICK, (Ga.) FEB. 1571838 State Rights Ticket fur Congress. ELECTION FIRST MONDAY IN OCTOBER. THOMAS BUTLER KING, of Glynn. WILLIAM C. DAWSON, of Greene. JULIUS C. ALFORD, of Troupe. WALTER T. COLQUITT, of Muscogee. RICHARD W. HABERSHAM, of Habersham EDWARD J. BLACK, of Scriven. MARK A. COOPER, of Hall. EUGENIUS A. NESBIT, of Bibb. LOT WARREN, of Sumpter FROM WASHINGTON. Our last week’s news from Washington in form us that Congress are engaged on many matters of importance. The Sub-Treasury Bill is still under discus sion—that bill by means of which, the admin istration mean to wield the whole money pow er of the country. The sum total of specie in the United States may now be reckoned at eighty millions. The Government propose to collect forty millions per year in specie, and deposit it in the sliding drawers of their Sub- Treasuries. If they succeed in this impudent and villainous scheme, it will then be ‘perish credit and perish commerce’ indeed. The Bill granting pre-emption rights in the public lands to squatters, has passed the Sen ate. The effect of this bill is to prevent the Government from receiving more than the minimum price for any of the public domains,” however valuable particular portions of them may be. Thus, if a section is particularly val uable, either for mines that it may contain, or for agricultural purposes, it will, should this bill pass, be occupied by squatters, who will be hired by speculators for the purpose, long before it is brought into market by the Gov ernment, and when it is put up for sale it can not be sold at its fair auction price, but the squatter buys it for the benefit of the specula tor, who is behind him, for one dollar and a quarter an acre. The affairs of the Commonwealth Bank, a pet bank at Boston, were brought forward in the Senate, and it was proved that the officers of the Government, both of the Pension Office and of the Custom House, had insisted upon paying the public creditors in the bills of this bank though they knew it was about failing. And this too, when these Government creditors demanded other funds. They were told to take Commonwealth Bank notes or go without their dues. The Mississippi Contested Election is, we are most happy to see, referred back to the people. This, more than any other event, in icates a return to a healthy action in Con gress. Last session, this very same question was decided as a mere party affair. Now, that decision is reconsidered, and it is settled with some regard to conscience and principle. In fact it is obvious that the evil deeds of the present administration are now recoiling upon them with fearful force, and crushing them to the earth with their weight When, in the progress of the French Revo lution, all law and order was utterly dissolved, there issued from the dirty cellars of the me tropolis, filthy fiends, scarce bearing a human form, who had never been seen while a govern ment was established. These wretches assum ed to control and direct the progress of disor ganization. It was soon found that even the horrors of anarchy could be aggravated. The better class of citizens then rallied. The glorious National Guard was fonned, and life and property immediately became safe and respected, and tranquillity comparatively re stored. So it is with us. We have suffered long enough the dominion of these wretches. It now becomes too intolerable even for their own partizans. They cried “Down with the Banks,” and “the Poor aoainst the Rich.” But the people have seen the results of their government and of their experiments. The employed have found out that there is no pros perity for them, independent of that of their rulers. Thf. American National Guard is now arming, to drive back these bad ru lers to the kitchens and cellars whence they sprang. Let the Anarchists at Washington look to it We desire to return our most particular thanks to the Darien Telegraph for its adver tising patronage. We solicit a continuance, and confidently hope that it may increase. We designed to insert its editorial article, entitled “the Brunswick Challenge,” by the side of the Companies’ advertisement; but our outer form, to which we have removed our ad vertisements, was worked off before we knew any. thing about it The article in question was full of that racy, piquant humor so distinctive of the national character of the writer, and so admirably de scribed by Miss Edgeworth in her “Essay on Irish Bulls.” It was also distinguished by that exuberance of fancy and ebullitiolPbf lan guage producing those very amusing figures of speech—which we trust Rhetoricians will soon regularly enroll —called Bulls. For instance: “Capt. Ramsay deemed it absolutely neces sary that there should be a mark at this place” [only 10 feet deep and 12 miles out at 6ea] where The Breakers sleep in so remarka ble a manner”—remarkable indeed !!! Now this is good, almost as good as Sir John Bull's “illumination with dark lanterns.” To make no comment upon the extraordinary fact in the words we quote —the true originality of its ex pression must strike every reader. We have heard something of the lullaby of gently falling waters. We wonder if that is what puts the breakers to sleep. How does a break er look when it is going to sleep? And more than all, how does it look when it is fast asleep? We must endeavor to induce our neighbor of Darien to accompany us to that bar, to see these wonders. We desire to correct a slight inadvertence of our neighbor’s in which we presume he refers to the Canal Compant. He says but fifty five percent of their capital has been paid in. It is true that only sixty-five per cent has been paid in on this stock, and we think the Tele graph can satisfy himself, with but very slight enquiry, that it is not customary, and would be absurd, to pay in Canal stocks in full at the time of the original subscription. The pay ments on the stock, of course, await the pro gress of the work. As, however, this Compa ny happens to have some ninety thousand dol lars actually paid in and not yet expended, we have not the same fears that our neighbor ex presses, that the discoverer of the bar will not be paid his reward. Let him come soon though for our friends, Messrs. Pratt & Nightingale, with their six hundred negroes, which number they will soon increase to a thousand, are ex cavating very fast, and will soon use up that ninety. The. fact that the whole Capital of the Land Company, four hundred and fifty thousand dollars, has been fully paid-in, the Telegraph does not notice, and probably was not aware of it It must have been a very pleasant trip that our neighbor took down to the U. S. Brig Por poise which Commander Ilamsay so clumsily got ashore within four miles of the lighthouse. We suppose the Commander had Lieut. Stock ton’s chart and soundings, made by order of the Government, in his pocket at the time, — but we don’t know the fact. However that may be, he got off pretty easily, and only left a part of his armament behind him. We say our neighbor had a pleasant trip, and in the best company toft. Such of them as he names are gentlemen whose high standing and re spectability we should be the last to impeach. But they are landsmen all, except, perhaps, the Captain of the steamer Ocmulgee,may,by cour tesy, be termed a sailor, and we can hardly think they gave our neighbor authority to use their names, or that they would like to en dorse his confident statements about nautical subjects in which he is so little versed. Not that we blame the Telegraph for speaking of subjects of which he knows nothing. By no means! it is his editprial, as well as his na tional privilege. ft is suggested that papers publishing’the advertisement of the General Agent of the Brunswick Companies should have the candor to republish the notions of the Editor of the Telegraph, that being “ no more than fair.” Now we are perfectly willing that those papers should take that course,* as may be seen from our adopting it ourselves. But at the same time, we are at a loss to perceive what relations exist between the General Agent and the Da rien Telegraph which should require it to be done from a sense of justice. “Be aisy, Pat rick darling, never fear. They’ll do ye justice.” said one of his comforters to a poor Irish crim inal. “Justice! Och! honey, it’s that same I’m afraid on,” answers he. To the Editor of the Telegraph we have one word more to add. We have not the pleasure to know him, having but lately taken charge of this paper, and having been much confined by ill health during our short resi dence at Brunswick. In assuming the con- I duct of the paper, we do not adopt its quarrels, ! and as yet have not even read an old contro ! versy which we understand formerly took place between the Telegraph and this paper. We desire to cultivate with all our editorial brethren the relations of cordiality and good will. However necessary it may be to quar rel elsewhere, we shall never do so in the columns of this paper. Such tilings can never interest the public, and are in themselves gen erally ridiculous. The gentlemen of your country are every where acknowledged to be of the first of the earth. Intelligent, brave, generous, sparkling with wit and boiling over with good humor, their superior companiona ble qualities are every where acknowledged. If you are then of them, do not stand growling across the river, writing articles, which as they neither interest us nor our readers, we shall never answer—but come to Club Point and see us. Club Point !! — we like the name. ■ It suggests the sociality and good fellowship which we trust may ever be found here. The Western Georgian. There ap peared among our exchange papers this week anew comer. The Western Georgian, Vol. I, No. 1. We opened it with feelings of anticipation. The motto “Wisdom, Justice, Moderation,” is good, as good for a newspaper as for the State. Let these qualities but pre vail in our newspapers, and what good may not the press effect We read farther to see wisdom, justice and moderation illustrated. “The doctrines of the Union Party will receive our support,” says the Editor. We did not think that any great argument of the wisdom, &c. but we let that pass, not having any desire to keep up the old political distinctions. And beside our eye at that moment caught the melodious title, We- TUMrKA and Coosa Railroad. The words BRUNSWICK * ADVOC ATE. flow “trippingly on the tongue.” Ah ha! i thought we, he is right in the main point after ! all—he goes for Internal Improvements. ( Judge then our surprise and sorrow, when we • thought we had acquired anew and able ally in the cause of Internal Improvements, which we have so much at heart, to read the follow ing sentence: Take the city of Havana, in Cuba, as the starting point. We do not pretend to give the distance accurately, but we are satisfied that it is over four thousand miles from thence to Charleston. The distance to this place is reckoned as accurately as possible without an actual survey at. one thousand miles. You do not pretend to give the distance ac curately indeed! You had better not. Go and study your Geography. Ask the child of ton years old the distance from Charleston to Ha vana, and he will tell you correctly that right hundred miles will more than cover it Four thousand miles!! why, the Atlantic ocean is only about two thirds of that breadth. Let Internal Improvements—let the Wetumpka and Coosa railroad be advocated by all means; but do not let it be done by people who have recourse “to their imagination for facts and to their memory for illustrations.” “Sic vosnon vobis." We see in the New York Commercial Ad vertiser, a long article explaining a most in genious Electric Telegraph in all its details. It seems a certain Professor Morse claims the invention of it. Now it so happens, that our simple self, more than one year ago,heard the j same scheme proposed in all its parts hv the ! very learned and ingenious Dr. Charles T. | Jackson of Boston, who we have no doubt was the original inventor of it. Who is Professor Morse?—not he‘of the Academy of Design, surely. Probably ho who has been muf-ifying tbe public of late with his fog bell. Or is it a grandson of the late lamented Goody of Cambridge, whose ad vent Horace foretold, saying— “Pallida Morse tequo pede pulsat, Regia tecta, ct pauperum tabernas,'' or words to that effect. the original inventor of it.

THE WEATHER. We “have it” already in this southern lati-1 Wide. How they must “have it” further north! [ The other day we heard some fears expressed that there would not be ice enough to iiil ieo- j houses (even at the north) for the coming sum-' mer. But these fears must, ere ties, have 1 been dispelled, and the nothern lakes and riv-, ers must present acres of ice, to cheer thft an ticipations of the “lovers of mint juleps.” In our streets, for the last two days, we have j had ice, and the severity of the atmosphere • has already almost driven from memory the | saucers of strawberries we imagined placed I before our editorial vision. For the saury north- • wester, which pinches even the nose of beau-! ty, and chops fair and delicate lips, makes us i think of ourself. Not content with driving 1 two of our office hands from their crises, it has j put ourself in bad case, for any thing but a testy paragraph, which our readers may won- ! der we indited, until we tell them it is too cold j for us to write aught else for a leader of our j columns. Heaven forefend such weather in i “flowery April!” We cut the above paragraph from a late Savannah Georgian. We have not had so! severe weather here as the editor of that i print complains of at Savannah. We t'lke this opportunity to express to that valuable paper, though it dill ers from us in politics, our acknowledgments of its in ’us'ry and activity in collecting and publishing the latest political and commercial intelligence.' From that paper and the Augusta Con.-titu tionalist, we generally get our latest dates from Washington and New York. Osf.oi.a, the celebrated Indian Chief, who- ■ death we have elsewhere announced, died it seems of a quinsey. Undoubtedly ho could have recovered if he would have consented to receive the remedies prescribed by the phvsi-! cians who visited him—Dr. Strobel of the Medical College and Dr. Weedon of the Ar my. lie was dissuaded from their prescrip tions by an Indian in great esteem among his | brethren us a prophet and doctor, notwithstand ing their representation of the danger of nog- j lcct. They could do nothing but leave him to his fate. These facts appear from the certifi cates of the medical gentlemen before named, which appear in the Charleston papers of the t»th inst. The Fire at Baltimore. We regret to | see that the celebrated Equestrian Establish ment of Mr. Cooke has been destroyed by fire. In the conflagration of the Baltimore Theatre and Circus, which took place early on the morn ing of the third instant, the material of the most splendid circus ever exhibited in Amcri- j ca was lost Their splendid stud, consisting' of fifty horses, were burnt to death. We! had seen these beautiful and well trained ani mals, and certainly in intelligence and good behavior, we have seen certain college-learnt youths who were their inferiors. The loss to Mr. Cooke is great for he had no insurance, but to the public is greater, for it loses that source of amusement. We trust soon, liowuv- j er, to see this establishment revived from its j i ashes with even more than its former splendor. If our correspondent Dr. Howe, who lives * somewhere on the Ohio river will send us a ! memo, of the post office most convenient to | | him, we will forward one paper to that address. For the present we direct it to him at Cincin nati. Forgeries on a ore at scale, seem to Ibe all the fashion in New York. See the nc- J [ counts below of two rather extensive “business transactions,” which seem to have been devel oped in that city within two days. Another extensive attempt at For gery failed.— Some live or six months back, a most daring plan was concocted ! to roh the celebrated bank note establish-! raent at the corner of Wall street and | Broadway. At that place it was well j known a large number of city and coun-j try banks have their plates engraved, and j the impressions taken from the same. And as it sometimes happens,they have genu ine impressions of bank notes in their i possession to the amounts of many mil-1 lions of dollars at a time ; some four or five scoundrels formed a plan to steal! several millions of these impressions: at the head of this gang was tlie notorious' counterfeiter,Elijah Saunders. Next came | a bank note engraver and printer, named John A. Packer, who had worked in the I ] establishment. \\ ith these two was asso-i j ciated a fellow named Tom Jones, who ■ made a set of false keys, by which they | were to enter the premises, and obtain I possession of tiie impressions. A fourth! fellow, whose name has not transpired, or j who, at least, lias not been caught, was! selected to sign the notes on account of his writing so excellent a hand. Every thing was prepared for putting the plan into operation ; the keys were made ; the impressions were printed ; they had agreed to commmit the robbery on a Saturday night, set to work, and signed a large a-1 mount of the notes in the night, started j their confederates oft" to distant cities car-! I!v on Sunday, bv which means they cal-j ; ciliated to get a large number in eircula-j -! t ion before the robbery was discovered, j They wc re only waiting the arrival of a j Irman from the south” to sum the uot"s,whon to their utter mortification, old Saunders could not keep from roguery I long enough to ensure their safety; he j tried to keep his hand in during the into-j rim, by passing off some counterfeit notes j on the Bank of Waterford; he was do-j tected ; and Hays, Sparks and Merritt j then set to work and ripped up the rest j of the other allair. They arrested Jones,! and he is still in confinement hut the Re corder haded Packer in the sum of 52!19, i and he of course has leit the city. Saun ders is also in prison, and thus the opera tions oi the gang are stopped pro tun. New York Herald, 30th u!t. The New York Sunday News, (28tli j u!t.) says: •Two or three persons have been arrest ed in this city under the following cir-j cumstances : A resident of New York do-; ing business as a broker, in the lower j part of the city, and living in elegant style : in Waverly place, together with two or j more scoundrels from the west, contrived I by forging letters and orders to possess' themselves of the original bank-note plates i of the Bank of Kentucky. Front these ! impressions were struck to the amount I of 8370,090 by Messrs. Burton, Gurley j and Edmonds,2o Wall street,who were led i to suppose tlie work to he for the hank to \ which the plates belong. The conduct of j the rogues was such as to lead to suspicion j on the part of the engravers that all was not right, and on conferring with the agent i of the bank here, the forgery of the letters and order was discovered; and application being made to tie police, the two princi pal unendors in this profitable speculation j were arm.-led and locked up. Another paper savs— Information was communicated to the police by a young associate of these rogues, whose remorse of conscience in duced him to quit their company, and their arrest soon followed. The printed notes were also secured in the hands of llie engravers. Another person belonging to the same gang, who had procured a number of notes of the ‘Fanners and .Mechanics’ Bank of Wisconsin Territo ry,” left New York before the police could arrest him. COTTON MARKET. It seems from the quotations below, that the market is becoming rather dull and stagnant: Augusta, Fell. 7. — Cotton — On Thurs day, Friday and Saturday last, there was a good demand for Cotton in this market, and prices improved from about 1-S to 1 —lc on all descriptions,—within the last three days, however, the demand lias slackened, and prices may now be said to range at the rates noticed in our last weekly review : from 8 1-2 to J lc. The receipts this week have been rather light tor the season, owing no doubt to the bad state of our roads which, wc understand, are in a wretched condition occasioned by the heavy rains experienced during the week previous; but of that received, very little has gone into store, as most of it was sold in the streets, from wagons, at prices ranging as given below. The sales from warehouses have been light, amount ing to about 2100 bales, the principal part of which was disposed of previous Jo Saturday last, at the following prices, viz: 5 bales at 8 1-4; 71 at 9; 71 at 9 1-4; I*, 9 1-2; 228, 10; 19, 10 1 -8: 2*29, 10 1-4 )>.">, 10 3-4; 487, 10 1-2; 75, 10:1-8; 201 10:5-4; 79, 10 7-8; 179, 11: 197, II 1-8 mid 29, II 7-8. We continue to quote extremes at 8 1-2 a lie—remarking, however, that if a lot of strictly prime was in market, it might command sonie tliing piore—but as far as we can learn, there is no cotton of this class at pres ent in the market. Charleston, Feb. 7. — Cotton —The upland cotton market continues to droop for all qualities but prime and choice,which continue to bring the prices quoted in our last. In the middling sorts, we have to note a further decline of a 1-4 cent per ib.—ln inferior the transactions have been ; very trifling. Rice—Within a few days the rice mar ket has been rather quiet, but without any j decline in the prices of last week. New Orleans, Feb. 3.— Cotton —Ar- rived since the 20th nit. 29,080 bales,and cleared in the same time 17,156 hales,mak ing an addition in stock of 11,920 bales, and leaving on hand inclusive of all on shipboard not cleared on the Ist inst. a stock of 122,708 bales. For two or three days in the beginning ; of the week, there was an active demand I for cotton,and sales to a large extent were j made at fully previous rates; but since; Tuesday the market has been very dull! and transactions limited—buyers evinc-j ing, no disposition to operate unless at a j decline. This.may in part be attributed to the present high rates of freight, but! more particularly to the unfavorable tenor of our last advices from Liverpool. The sales during the week amounting to fully 12,001) bales, most of which were sold previous to Tuesday, as remarked above. Nothing has been done to justify any al teration in quotations, but the market is exceedingly dull, and has, evidently a downward tendency. We copy from the Savannah Georgian the following particulars of Gen. Jessup’s battle with the Indians. Sr. Augnstine, Feb. 3. .\ nrs received from Gen. Jessup's army by ex press this morning. The substance of a letter received by a gentleman from an officer at Fort Peirce 1 dated the 20th of January, 1838, says— “Jessup lias had a fight with the Indians. The Tennesseans generally behaved well.” Pile number of the Indians considerably i more than has been supposed.—The In dians loss very trifling as far as has been , ascertained ; their provisions, cattle and ! ammunition, ascertained to lie plenty, j “They never have fought on fair terms ; in every fight except Capt Powell’s they i have had tlie advantage of ground There they had it in numbers, but came out in to open ground. Jessup fought across a i creek, and alter the action discovered j tfiat his force was sufficient to have sur rounded their position, which, from the ; information 1 have received, cannot cover j more than ten acres of ground. They \ had holes morticed in the trees, pickets ] set up, and palmetoes set up so as to cov | er them and form blinds, and had cleared ; away the hammock on the side Jessup at | tacked them, which exposed his inen al ! together, without there seeing the enemy.” Another letter from an officer to a gen tleman here dated at the same place, Ist i Feh., says, | “ The southern express of this evening brnigs important news from the army. Gen. Jessup has had a hard battle with | the Indians, lie completely routed them. | He was severely wounded in the action in | the face, but still commands, and is in full j pursuit of the enemy, w ho has fled south. lie had 7 killed on the field and 32 : wounded, 2of whom arc since dead. It ; is reported that \\ ild Cat is badly ivound ! cd. The battle was fought on the La-che ; lia-bc. This war must soon be ended now.” General Nelson’s Brigade. The 1 Milledgeviilc Standard of Union, ofTues < 1 av, lias the following : FROM FLORIDA. The following letter received a day or two since, from Capt. Dawson, affords the -ratify inir intelligence that the Georgia Volunteers are doing their duty. They oat no idle bread, but are always on the alert, and if the Indians are to bo found, they will find them and beat them. They are the hoys who believe a white man can go any where that an Indian can, and therefore they charge the hammocks, afid drive all before them. May they win laurels for themselves, and honor for their country ! Fort Fanning, Jan. 14, 1838. \ Dear Sir: I have arrived here in the! Steamer Marion, which was not able to co-operate with Gen. Nelson below here, as 1 mentioned in my last letter, was the arrangement, on account of his not finding a way to the river. The brigade lias done, however, no bad business, as it lias taken 14 Indian prison ers, and one negro. Those with the 12 killed, and the two prisoners in the form er affair, and say 15 wounded, make 44 of the enemy that we have placed “hors de combat," m a short time. The Indians no doubt begin to think with a certain personage in Georgia, that we are an unauthorized assemblage of men, who had better return to our homes. We know were the Indian rendezvous is, and shall give them another turn short ly, after which you shall hear from me. Yours in haste, J. W. H. DAWSON, Ad’jt Ist Reg’t Georgia Volunteers. From the X. Y Mercantile Asiwrtiser, 3d inst. Three Days Later from Liverpool. — l The Packet ship Pennsylvania, Capt. 1 Smith, arrived at this port last evening I from Liverpool, whence she sailed on the 25th Dec. Capt. S. has politely favored the editors of thu Mercantile Advertiser with a file of London papers to the 25th December, the same dates as we received by the Philadelphia from London. The cotton market remains much the same as at our previous advices. The Liverpool Albion of the 25th Dec. says, “The messenger by the packet ship Shakespeare, carrying the news of the re volt in Canada, reached London on the i morning of the 22d Dec. | Liverpool, Dec. 25th. The sales of i cotton on Saturday, the 23d inst. were 3000 bales, of which 150 Pemambucos and ISOSurats were on spcculatioa.
