THE ADVOCATE.
BRUNSWICK, (Ga.) FEB. 2. 1831).
(jy* Persons indebted to this office for ad
vertising or subscriptions, would greatly oblige
us by making immediate payment.
TO OUR READERS.
The subscriber having determined his edi
torial connexion with the Brunswick Advocate,
takes this opportunity to announce the fact,
and to return his best thanks for the attention
and patronage it has received during the time
that this press has been in his charge.
Os the courtesy and kindness too of his ed
itorial brethren, he is not unmindful, and es
pecially to those who have exchanged their
more valuable papers for the Advocate, he
would make acknowledgments for the impor
tant aid they have thus rendered.
To all he would bid a grateful and respect
ful farewell. JOSEPH LYMAN, Jh.
In consequence of the above retirement, the
Advocate will for the present be conducted by
the subscriber. We hope, however, it will
not be long before the services of some gentle
man will be secured in the editorial depart
ment of talent commensurate with the grow
ing importance and the eminent advantages
of our young and rising city.—lt is nearly two
years since we established the Advocate
at this place, during which time we have had
numerous obstacles to encounter to keep the
paper alive, among which have been the entire
neglect of two out of three individuals, to ful
fil a contract solemnly entered into.—But after
getting the press established here to enhance
their own private interests, we were abandon
ed to struggle against poverty and a limited
patronage, with a family to support, rs best
we might We yet hope, however, to have
justice done us on this point.
Always expecting to earn our bread by the
sweat of the bi*.w, we shall continue every
exertion to make the Advocate as respectable
and useful a journal as our abilities will per
mit. All information respecting works of In
ternal Improvement in the State will contin
ue to occupy a space in its columns. In the
political character of the paper there will be
no change, and to our friends and the States
Rights party we look with confidence to an
increased support. CHARLES DAVIS.
FROM FLORIDA.
By the politeness of a passenger in the
steamer Florida, which arrived at this port on
Sunday morning last, from Florida, we have
been favored with the St. Augustine Herald,
sf the 24th ult. We perceive in it nothing of
importance except the account which wc pub
lish below of the capture of sixteen Indians,
by a detachment of Dragoons uruler the com
mand of Capt. Beall, who we are happy to say
has been quite successful in capturing Indians
“during his campaigns in Florida.
[From the St. Augustine Herald.]
SIXTEEN INDIANS CAPTURED.
We learn from the arrival of an officer
of the Army from Fort Butler, last even
ing that a detachment of three compa
nies of Dragoons, under Capt. Lloyd J.
Beall, left Fort Butler on a scout of sev
en days, and returned on the '2lst, having
captured IG Indians. When near the A
ha-pop-ka Lake, he discovered an Indian
trail which he followed up until he lost it,
and halted. In a short time he heard a ri
fle, and on looking up he saw a turkey
fall from a tree about 150 yards distant.
His men were instantly extended and urg
ed rapidly forward, when he succeeded in
capturing the 16 Indians—2 men, 2 boys,
and the rest women and children.
Capt Bell’s Company has left for the
Okefinokee Swamp.
From the same source we learn that on
the 20th a party of 5 Indians, near Fort
Brooke, fired on a waggoner, while with
his team, and severely wounded him in
the breast, but not so badly as to prevent
his escape. In the waggon were a few
bags of oats and corn; the latter they en
deavored to carry off, and probably from
fright, they were obliged to leave, after
conveying it about 100 yards. The oxen
in the wagon were left unharmed. On the
21st, Oapt. Tompkins came up with their
camp and captured their camp equipage;
the Indians effected their escape:

BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE.
[For the Brunswick Advocate.]
OCR RESOURCES AND IMPROVEMENTS. No. 1.
The Rail Rood. —The cost ami labor. Mr.
Editor, to build the Brunswick and Florida
Railroad, and the immediate profits likely to
arise therefrom, have been fully laid open and
explained by its able advocates, and to the sa
tisfaction, I trust, of all your readers. It is
also well understood, I believe, that the com
pletion of this stupendous work will give an
impulse and growth to Brunswick, almost, if
not quite, unparalleled in the history of our
country. But there are other considerations,
in connexion with the Railroad and Brunswick
itself, which I have no recollection of having
seen fully discussed, and one which it may not
be amiss to say a few words.
To ascertain these considerations, we must
take a short view of the land and natural ad
vantages near this end of the Rail-road rohte.
It has been said by the enemies of Brunswick,
at least that the land in the vicinity thereof is
poor and unpropitious to the growth of a city,
setting aside a few thousand acres of clay and
sandy land in the immediate vicinity to which
the word poor may be applied; and it appears
to me that nothing could be more absurd than
such assertions. But even these few thous
and acres, are enough to ensure a healthy at
mosphere to the city, which is dry and abounds
in lofty pines, and groves of oak to ornament
the summer retreat, and shelter the buildings
and effects from the scorching rays of the sum
mer sun. Privileges, by the way, in the vicin
ity of a city in this our southern clime, that
may well be compared with the richest grounds
and their abundant fruits. In regard to the
section a little more remote, and lying on the
rail road route what are the facts. This section
which in truth is the principal environ of
Brunswick, not included in the arms of the
sea, is made up of dry and elevated ridges,
which yield, when the axe and hoe have been
applied, corn, cotton, potatoes and other neces
saries of life. Where the axe lias not been
applied, they are covered with lofty and valu
able timber. These ridges are divided and
alternated by vallies of the richest and most
productive soil, yielding almost every vegeta
ble, fruit, and giving sustenance to every ani
mal necessary to the support and comfort of
man. A few of these vallies are known to
have been cultivated, but the greater part re
main to be broken up, and their value devel
oped. Such is the nature and aspect of the
country for GO miles in length, and from 20 to
40 in breadth on this end of the rail road route.
But, above all, and of which I should not
neglect to speak, these ridges are perfectly
healthy. They are not so broad as to prevent
the planter, and in many instances his negroes,
from residing thereon and attending to agri
culture in the vallies below. Yet they are
sufficiently broad to shield us from the mi-
which in the summer season is peculiar
to the vallies. No part of the world, as a com
parison of the cases of death and sickness
will show—as the appearance of the robust
blacks, the hardy crackers, the sprightly chil
dren, the fair skined blooming misses and ma
trons, to say nothing about the active planters
themselves, will readily prove, is more healthy
than the pir.e regions in the counties of
Glynn, Wayne, Camden and Ware. Health
is then invaluable. “ O blessed health, thou
art above all gold and treasure —’tis thou who
enlargest the soul, and openest all its powers
to receive instruction, and relish virtue—he that
has thee has little more to wish for! and he
that is so wretched as to want thee—wants
every thing with thee.”
Such is the section of country near this end
of the Brunswick and Florida rail-road, whose
healthiness will bear a comparison with the
hills of Norway, or the highlands of Scotland-
Were this section of country lying near the
city of Charleston or Savannah, what would it
not be. Would it not long ago have been ce
lebrated for its richness and attractions, in
stead of lying as it now does, comparatively
unimproved and unknown to the world.
A few statistical, or dollars and cents’ cal
culations, as dependent on the accomplishment
of the rail-road, will show us more ctearly the
interest we have in doing nil we can to for
ward this great work. Let us begin with city
; consumption and necessary expenditures. City
people are fond of good things, and for abun
j dance of them. A city of 5000 inhabitant*'
] who consume ten cents a day each of country
J produce, will consume $182,500 worth in a
I vear. At the rate of five cents a day each,
] J
\ $91,250 a year. But when we take into con
j sideration the beasts as well as men, usually
! found in cities to consume country produce,
! ten cents a day to each huhiaii being is not a
high estimate. To this we might add the
consumption of visitors, and that of the ship
ping. But it is not unrcasonable*to suppose
that in ten years after the Brunswick and Flor
ida Rail-road is finished, Brunswick will con
tain ten thousand inhabitants, which would in
! crease the annual consumption of country
produce at ten cents a day each, to $365,000,
or SIOOO a day. This would give to every
human being now living in the counties of
| Glynn, Wayne, Camden and Ware, not less
than S3O a year each; to every white inhabit
ant over SSO each ; to every head of a family
and man of business not less than S3OO each.
When we reflect that from various causes, not
’ more than one half will share in the benefit
of this market, the amount to such as may
share, will be S6OO a year, and all this is to
be added to the advantages and means of
wealth they already possess.
But supposing we use this estimate of city
consumption, as we may with much propriety j
do, as a basis to determine the increased value j
of lands on this end of the Rail-road route,
what will he the effect ? We will allow that t
there be within reach of Brunswick market j
$500,000 acres of land susceptible of cultiva- |
tion. $365,000 would be the annual interest j
at eight per ceht, $4,562,500. Allowing one '
half of this amount then, ns we may with pro- i
priety do, as the increased value of 500,000 j
acres of land, and we have, soon after the j
completion of this Rail-road an increase ofi
$4 50 cts per acre, or from one to two hun-!
dred per cent, on the present Talue of the land.
These I know are abstract calculations, and j
did they stand alone and to be carried out, j
amid the caprice and changes of men and '
things, unconnected with the other advantages
arising from this great work, the conclusions
might be doubted. But when we reflect, as
we should, on the facilities of rail-road con
veyance for all kinds of articles, the facilities
it will bring to us of obtaining all things we
may want in return for our produce,—when
we reflect on the ten thousand inducements
to bring money and enterprise amongst us,
who can doubt, or for a moment think that
these calculations are not fur below what the
reality will be. Do you ask for example—
look at the New York Canal, which has raised
multitudes of cities far superior to what wc
dare hope for Brunswick itself to attain. If j
you say the Erie and Buffalo Canal, is an ex
ception, and possesses superior advantages, I
would ask in return, where is the rail-road, or
where is the canal finished and in operation,
that has not done and is doing in proportion
to advantages, much more than is here bespoke.

CONGRESS.
Washington, Jan. 20.
In the House, the whole of this day’s ses
sion has been taken up in hearing and discuss
ing the application of Messrs. Taylor, Martin,
and Wagoner, to be excused from serving on
the Swartwout committee. The two former
were excused; and the House refused to ex
cuse the latter by a vote of 105 to 102. At
the close of the session, Messrs. Foster and
Owens were appointed to fill the two vacan
cies created above.
Before the adjournment of the House, Mr.
Wise introduced a resolution authorizing the
committee to appoint a clerk and a printer; also
giving the members of the committee leave to
absent themselves front the House during its
sittings; and if necessary, to proceed to New
York to prosecute the investigation.
Jan. 21.
In the Senate a joint resolution was intro
duced by Mr. Tallmadge for the amendment
of the Constitution of the United States. This
resolution provides that the President shall be
elected for one term of four years, and be in
eligible thereafter, also, that the Secretary of
the Treasury, the Treasurer, and the Post
master General be elected by Congress, for
such term and in such manner as shall be pre
scribed by law; and that no member of Con
gress shall he appointed to any office in the
Governn -.it of the United States until the ex
piration of two years after he shall ha . j ceas
ed to be a member of Congress.
In the House, Mr. Adams, of Mass., asked
and obtained leave to make the following
statement, which is deemed here of vast im
portance. He stated that lie was not an abo
litionist in any sense of that term. He as
serted that lie had never been, and was not
now, in favor of the abolition of slavery in the
District of Columbia. If such a bill were
brought before Congress, be would vote a
gainst it. lie Said he had read every thing
that had been written in favor of the abolition
of slavery in the District by Congress, and he
had maturely weighed the subject, and the
result was a deliberate and strong conviction
of its inexpediency. He said that he would
prefer to have the scat of government else
where than in a slave-holding District, and, if .
it was constitutional, he would remove it and j
retrocede, the District to Maryland nnd Vir
ginia, but he did not think that course consti
tutional. Jle was, however, in favor of refer
ring these petitions and of having a report up
on them, and. he perceived no reason why this
subject should not he discussed here as well
as any other.
It now appears that Mr. Adams wishes to
have the subject referred to a committee, of
which he shall be the Chairman, and referred
without limitation; and he then wishes to pre
sent his views against tfie objects of the me
morialists. There is no doubt in the world,
that he would make a report of great ability on
the subject, and it would tend to quiet agita
tion; but then, again, it must be considered
that, if Congress permit the subject to be dis
cussed on the floor, it must engross their
whole time, to the exclusion of all other du
ties, and produce an irritation that would per
haps break up the whole body in confusion.
Jan. 22.
In the Senate, to-day, the bill to prohibit the
giving or accepting a challenge to fight a du
el within (he district, the hill to abolish impri
sonment for debt in certain cases, and the bill
for the relief of Pierre Menard and others,
were ordered to be engrossed for a third read
ing. The bill for the relief of Loomis and
Gay, the bill to prevent the counterfeiting of
foreign coin, the bill for the relief of Gad
Humphreys, and the joint resolution for the
purchase of the island at the confluence of
the Sl Peters and Mississippi rivers, were se
verally read a third time and passed.
After the consideration of executive busi
ness, the Senate adjourned.
Jan. 23.
In the Senate, Mr. Norvall asked leave to
bring in a bill giviug a quantity of the public
lands to certain of the States for tho purpose
of internal improvements.
A bill abolishing imprisonment for debt in
certain cases was finally passed.
The anti-duelling bill was finally passed,
ayes 27, noes 9. Both bills were sent to the
House for concurrence.
In the House, Mr. Bronson, from the com
mittee on Territories, reported a bill authoris- .
ing the people of lowa to form a Constitution
and State Government, and for the admission ;
of such State into the Union. It was read j
twice and committed.
The Speaker presented a communication
from the War Department, furnishing, in obe-1
diene* to a resolution of tho House, copies of
all correspondence relating to the accounts of
Gov. Cass.
The bill which had, after so much debate
and contest, passed the Senate, for reducing
and graduating the price of the public lands,
was yesterday taken up in the House of Rep
resentatives, and on the question as to what
committee it should be referred, a motion was
made to lay it on the tabic, and decided in the
affirmative, under such circumstances as to
justify the belief that it will there “sleep the
sleep that knows no wafting.”
The Battle Fought and I Von. —The
contest in the House of Representatives
of the United States for the last few days
has been one in effect, not for life or death
indeed, hut (so far as concerns the ac
count of the Members of that body) of
freedom or slavery. V\ e refer, of course,
only to the question in wliat manner the
committee of investigation into the defal
cations of public officers, was to be ap
pointed, which was the only question in
dispute: no one, we believe, dissenting
Ifom the opinion that an investigation of
some sort was necessary. The supporters
generally of the Administration, anxious
apparently to secure the appointment of a
majority of their own political friends up
on the committee, labored with groat zeal
to have the appointment of the committee
made, if not by the Speaker, at least viva
vote, in order to give full effect to the in
fiuenco of party discipline in the election.
They failed of success in this purpose,
however. A majority of the House sus
tained the freedom of action which the
ballot system allows, which, if ever proper,
is obviously more so when an election is
to be made from among the members of
the House, than when the choice is to fall
upon persons not within its walls. A com
mittee was then chosen, constituted as
such a committee ought to be, of Mem
bers of different parties, a majority of
whom are supposed to be in favor of a
thorough and searching investigation.
It is perhaps no business of ours, but
rve take the liberty to express our surprise
that the friends of the Administration
should have sought even indirectly to
throw an impediment in the way of those
who asked for the investigation. In do
ing so, they erred, in our opinion in prin
ciple. But the eror of their tactics is yet
more remarkable; for they placed them
selves in a position so untenable that they
have been driven from it, w ith total dis
comfiture, by a force hertofore certainly
computed as numerically inferior to their
own.— [Nat. Inf. 2lst inst.
Select Committee on Defalcations. —Wc
learn that the Select Committee appoint
ed by the House of Representatives to in
vestigate the defalcations of the late Col
lector of the port of New York and other
officers, held a meeting yesterday and
elected Mr. Harlan of Kentucky, Chair
man, and Philip R. Fcndall, Esq. of this
City, Clerk.
We have also understood that the Com
mittee have determined to commence their
investigations in the city of New York
and will leave here this evening for that
city.
The Committee are composed of the
follou'ing gentlemen: Messrs. Harlan, Cur

Well received by many respectable families;

Haydn's real character, feels it an unavoidable
duty to stall- to the public as follows : that tho
