ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS RE
WARD.
WHEREAS it lias been reported that there
is an outer bar opposite the entrance to the
Port of Brunswick, in Georgia, some miles dis
tant from that surveyed by three Commission
ers of the Navy in 1836, and having less water
upon it; the above reward is offered to any per
son who will discover any such bar so situated
as to cause a hindrance to ships entering the
Port.
And whereas it has been also confidently re
ported that there is a bar across the inner chan
nel of Oglethorpe Bay, opposite the city of
Brunswick, having only the depth of six or
eight feet of water on it at low tide ; a reward
of five hundred dollars will be paid to any per
son who shall discover such bar, or any bar
so situated, which has not an abundant depth of
water upon it for the passage of merchant ships
of the first class up to the town.
The inner bar above alluded to is probably
the one described in the following extracts,
Ist, From the report of the State Commis
eioners, John G. Polhill, Hugh Lawson and
Moses Fort, Esquires :
“Between Brandy Point on this island, and
Dennis’s Folly on the Brunswick shore, there
is an inner bar, upon which there is about twelve
feet at low water, and, as the tide rises ten feet,
it gives the same depth of water that we find on
the outer bar, with this advantage, that the
bottom being soft mud creates no damage to
ships and may be very easily deepened if it
were necessary. But no such necessity exists,
as any ship that crosses the outer bar can run
over this at high water, and find the best an
chorage near the bluff along the whole extent
of the town, in from twenty to forty feet water
at the lowest time of tide. This we ascertain
ed from careful soundings at low water, and
after having finished the soundings for or
■elves, ascertained that Stockton's report and
diagrams confirmed our own survey.”
2d. From the report of the Commissioners of
the Navx r , made subsequently to the last:
“A shoal of soft mud, close to and below the
town, on which but 12 feet can be found at low
water, seems to indicate some other point in the
harbor as a more suitable position for a navy
yard. We believe Blythe Island, on the op
posite shore, to be the most eligible.”
Any person making the above discoveries,
will please give information of the same to
the Resident Agent of the Brunswick Com
panies, and the reward shall be paid in each
case to the first successful applicant.

PROSPECTUS OF
T li c £ x peri m c a* I.
IN issuing a Prospectus for the publication cl
a paper, the undersigned will depart from a
usage more honored in the breach, than in the
observance, and make no promises which it is
not his design to fulfil. “The Experiment,’
after a trial of almost 12 months, has not failed in
recuring for the Editor, the attention and pat
sonage desired; and it is confidently believed,
in rendering to subscribers, at least an equiva
lent for the pittance they contributed towards
its support. Gratified for the encouragement
manifested, desirous x<f making his little paper
worthy the patronage of an enlightened and
generous public, the subscriber lias determined
to enlarge it to nearly quadruple the present
dimensions, so that it will contain nearly four
times as much matter as it now docs. Thus
will be afforded greater space for his own lucu
brations and those of correspondents, together
with Advertisements and judicious selections.
It may not be inappropriate here to remark, that,
for want of room, some of the best communica
tions have been excluded, and occasionally in
teresting matter, difficult to condense within :;o
small a compass. With increased labor and
expenditure, lie must hope for increased re
ward; and consequently, the subscription price
for the second volume will be One Dollar in
advance, or One Dollarand Fifty Cents, at the
expiration of the year. This alteration, it will
be perceived, is not in proportion to the change
of size in the paper; the times being hard, we
are willing to work as low as we can, to save
ourselves front debt, to please our patrons and
ourselves also.
Advertisements, as heretofore at 50 cents per
square for the first insertion, and 25 cents pel
square for each subsequent insertion.
O’Those who can conveniently pay in ad
vance, by doing so, will not only save them
selves a heavy interest, but enable us, with
more alacrity and advantage, to prosecute the
work. F. J. ROBINSON.

PROSPECTUS

ON the first of September next, will be is
sued the first number of the Southern I.it
i irnry Aspirant, in quarto form, medium—to be
j conducted by-tlie present Editor of the “ News
j Carrier;” at which time that paper-will merge
into the former.
Such a work is offered to the public from a
firm conviction of its necessity and importance;
and the editor has only to regret that abler
hands have not undertaken to accomplish so
desired an object as the advancement of Litera
ture in the South, before him. Toeffect which
will be his constant and unerring aim. The
Editor lids received the a-ssurance of assistance
[ from many, upon whom he relies, with % pWas
(ing confidence, that himself nor the public,
i through hirn, will be disappointed in their ex
[ pectatioris of its character and success.
We intend that our paper shall be a faithful
vehicle of general News. The cause of the
j 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
i affairs of Government, however, will not be
, suffered to pass unnoticed—-and all sensible,
| judicious communications on this subject, pro'
vided they-are free from party spirit, will re*
ecive particular attention.
Persons obtaining ten responsible subscribers
to the Aspirant, will be entitled to one copy
gratis.
Terms. The Aspirant will be published ev
ery Saturday, in the city of Macon, at Two
Dollars per annum—sl 25 for six months

THE publisher assures the citizens of Geor

the work, that lie will use every exertion to
render it a useful vehicle of such information
as may he of importance to them.
The Cherokee Land Lottery will contain the
names of all the fortunate drawers in the Land
Lottery, and their residence, up to the first of
January, 1638, with an engraved map of each
Land District in the Cherokee Country, im
mediately preceding the names in each district.
The Cherokee Land Lottery will contain about
live hundred pages, royal uctavo size, will be
printed on good paper, neatly bound, and deliv

Ft ora Geo rgien s I r..
rgTIIIS will be. both a Grammar and Diction- j
A ary of Botany ; —presenting, first, Vegeta
ble Physiology, and, second, a minute and ac
curate description of every plant yet discovered j
in Georgia, together with its medicinal or nox
ious properties—it s English nuim—its emblem,
language, Ac. Such u work is much needed,
at this time, in our Southern Institutions. We
have no text hook 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 dese iption of a
few leaves, roots, llowers. &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 glasses
and orders in the Linucan system, the method
of analysing flowers, and, proceed next, to the
examining, collecting and arranging of them
into an herbarium. A lore, 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 cau render sncli 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
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,
octavo, and be furnished to subscribers, in
boards, at $5 per copy. It will be issued dur
ing the next winter, provided the number of
subscribers warrant the expense.
All Editors throughout the Southern States,
friendly to the diffusion of scientific knowledge,
who will insert this notice, and forward us a
copy of their paper, will be entitled t > one copy
of the work. L. LATASTE,

with your permanent prosperity and hap
piness, which have, during the last fif
teen years, demanded of you all the con
sideration which your intelligence could
bestow, and all exertions your patriotism
could contribute, none have come more
directly “home to your business and your
bosoms,” than that upon which we now
propose to address you. **' , \ ,
The struggle in which you were so song
engaged, in relieving your commerce
from the burdens imposed Opon it by par
tial legislation, has been terminated by a
compromise, which, if finally carried out
in the 1 iberal and magnanimous spirit in
Iwhichitwas conceived, cannot fail to
| perpetuate the political harmony which it
I was the means of restoring. But it is
! not to be disguised, that tlie system of
j high protecting duties, falling mainly up
ion the productions of the exporting
| States, combined with the system-of fed
j oral disbursement, which expended the
| revenue resulting ffom those duties, -il-.
I most exclusively in the Northern States,
j lias converted the slight superiority orig
! inally possessed by the Northern cities,
in the business of foreign importations,
1 into an overwhelming
and diverted almost the whole of the
menso commerce of the Southern
Southwestern States into artificial, circu
itous and unnatural .channels. In shes
commercial relations of extensive and
wealthy communities, it was to have been
expected tliaLeficcts would for sometime
survive their cause*?. And accordingly
that portion of tlie commerce of the U
nited States, which is appropriately our
own, consisting of an exchange of our
agricultural productions for the mannfacS
tures of foreign countries, Is still carried
on principally through Northern cities,
by the agency of Northern
who levy a transit duty—voluntarily paid
to be sure—but utterly incompatible With
a just and enlightened view of our own
interests.
Now that the system of compoteor’y
tribute is greatly reduced, and rapidly
coming to a close, we are called upon
by every consideration of enlightened
self-interest, to signalize our complete
commercial emancipation, by throwing off
this system of voluntary tribute, wnicb
can continue only by our consent aiid Co*
operation.
A candid and dispassionate survey of
the actual condition of onr foreign com
merce, as compared with our great nature
al advantages, will demonstrate that -to
bring about this consummation, so ‘ ‘de
voutly to he wished,” by every patriotic
citizen of the Southern and Southwest
ern States, nothing more is necessary
than a resolution on our part to accom
plish it. To wHI is to do it.
A brief analysis of our fpreign com
merce will he now presented. Taking
the imports and exports of the United
States for the fiscal year IS3G, as a crite
rion, we have the following extraordinary
statistical phenomena:
The imports of the w hole of the Unit*
ed States, amounted in f°und numbers,
to $11)0,000,000. Those of New York
alone amounted to sllßjooo,ooo, while
those of all the Atlantic States south of
the Potomac, and tlie States on the Gulf
of Mexico, amounted to only $20,000,-
000, nnd those of South Carolina and
Georgia to only $3,400,000. During the
same year, the domestic exports of the
United States amounted to $107,000,000
of which New York exported only sl9,*
! 800,000, against an import of 118 mil
i lions, whilst the States South and South
' west of the Potomac, exported $78,000,-
[ 000 against an import of only $20,-
000,000, and South Carolina and Georgia
! each having a commercial seaport, with
a safe lnrbor on the Atlantic, exported
$24,000,000 against an import of only
$3,400,000 ! The contrasts here exhib
ited are absolutely astounding, and it is
confidently believed they are without any
parallel iiu the history of independent
States. New York, i l will be perceived,
imported six times the amount of her ex
ports, while the Southern and Southwest
ern States imported little more (baa <HMt
fourth of the amoiiuiof theirs, and Sough
Carolina and Georgia imported leea |%M|
one seventh part of the value of IJffiff
Tfie case of these two States furnishes
the fairest criterion for detjerißiuifMt the
degree of that ruinous *
exists between the exports and ImportsYff
the States which produce, tftft fit&t agri
cultural staples, which are almost the sole
foundation of the foreign Commerce of
the whole Union. #
New Orleans, from ite
sition, imports West India productionsibr
the Valley of the Mississipf i, and apecie
from Mexico for tlie United States gener
ally—articles which -are not obtained in
Western States, and form no part of. the
commerce bf whjch those staples are
