THE ADVOCATE.
BRUNSWICK, (Gx.) FEB. 23,1839.
ftSDucTicru Coutkwtiow. —Aa the conduc
tor of a public press, we feei it our duty to
call the public mind to all subjects connected
with the public good, and we know of no sub
ject at present which should occupy the atten
tion of the citizens of this State with more
interest, than the Reduction Convention, to be
held in Millodgeville on the first Monday in
May next We are satisfied as to the general
feeling on this subject, which has so important
a bearing on the saving of the public money,
the responsibility of the representatives and
a wiser legislation.
As the day is not far distant which the le
gislature has appointed for the election of
delegates to that Convention, we would sug
gest the propriety of a public meeting to be
held in this place, at some convenient time,
for the purpose of nominating candidates, who
have discretion, experience and patriotism, to
represent our county*.
We will recur again to this subject, when
we shall have had some suggestions in rela
tion to the meeting which we have proposed—
in the mean time would refer our readers to
the act passed at the late session of the Legis
lature, providing for the call of this Conven- j
tion, which will he found on our last page.
HENRY CLAY.
The speech of this distinguished gentleman,
delivered in the Senate of the United States
on the subject of abolition, a notice of which |
will be found under our Congressional head,
by a correspondent of the Charleston Courier,
will, we doubt not, be read with much interest
by every southerner. We pretend not to
judge of his motives, but if sincere in the opin
ions expressed, the charge against him, and
so generally believed, of his advocating abo
lition principles, must now be abandoned.
REGATTA.
The third annual Regatta of the Aquatic
Club of Georgia took place at St. Marys, on
Monday last.—We have received no authentic
account of the races, but learn by a friend
who was present, that a race came off for the
Club purse entered for four oared boats, be-,
tween the “Caroline King,” owned by Capt. i
Richard F. Floyd, and the “ C. C. S,” the!
“ beautiful unknown,” to which we alluded in
our last, owned by Messrs. Gignilliat and
Stockwell, of this city, and built by the latter.
The race was won by the C. C. S., beat
ing the Caroline King, an open length or more.
We would however state that the C. K. is a
tit oared boat
Several other races took place. We are
happy to learn that the club have agreed here
after to meet at Brunswick.
The Caroline King is now hero on her way
to Augusta to compete with one of the Angus- 1
ta Club boats, for a purse of one thousand dol
lars.
The race which was expected to take place
here on the 22d, is postponed till some] time
next month, when several races are expected
to come off.
OUR CITY.
That Brunswick is destined to become a !
place ot' great importance, no one at all ac-1
quainted with its superior advantages for com
mercial purposes can doubt; and we feel more
and more encouraged in our hopes for her
prosperity. Although we cannot yet boast of
fine edifices and beautiful squares, we hope,
ere long, to see in operation the fine steam
siw mill, now erecting by the Brunswick Lum-,
ber Company, under the direction of our much j
esteemed citizen, HEXRr A. Breed. It is:
expected that the mill will be finished by the j
first of May, and so soon ns lumber can be ob
tained, we doubt not Brunswick will present:
a different appearance. We wish this enter
prise much success, as well as every other
connected with the prosperity of this city.
Accident.—One of the laborers employed
on the Brunswick Canal, was accidently
drowned in Ellis’s Creek on the 20th inst., by
the upsetting of a boat. His name was Mi
chael Finnon, a native of Ireland. A jury of
inquest was held on the body, who returned a
verdict os above.
L. E. L.—The death of Miss Lamdon, (Mrs.
McLean,) is confirmed. This occurred at
Cape Coast shortly after her arrival. She was
found dead on the floor of her room, with a
vial of prussic acid in her hand, and the jury
gave as a verdict that she had probably taken
an over-doee for spasms of the stomach, to
which she was subject, and which were re
excited by the change of climate, her husband.
It appears, suffering at the same time.
By an arrival at Charleston from Point Pe
tre, it appears that the accounts from St
Pierres of the number killed and wounded by
the earthquake, an account of which we pub
lished in our last, was greatly exaggerated.
The whole number of maimed and killed does
not exceed two hundred and fifty.
Good Dividend.— The New York Journal
of Commerce says that the Merrimack Compa
ny of Lowell divided in December last 40 per
per cent on their capital of $1,500,000, besides
reserving a surplus of SIOO,OOO for the pur
chase of new machinery. The company made
no dividend in 1837, but reserved their profit*
to meet the losses they were then exposed to
from bad debts, by the general disasters of the
whole country in that year.
LATEST FROM EUROPE.
HiAXTßinnxo IrrmireExci.—The pack
|et ship Cambridge, arrived at New York, on
the 12th inst. from Liverpool, bringing dates
J from that city to the 10th, and London to the
Bth ult By this arrival we have the distresa
: mg intelligence of the loss of three N. York
! and Liverpool packet ships, viz: the Pennsyl
! vania, the Oxford, and . the St Andrrw, by a
gale which occurred on the 7th nit, on the
I western coast of England. Capt Smith of the
Pennsylvania, his first and second mate, four
■ of the passengers, and seven of the crew were
lost The passengers and crews of the Ox
ford and St. Andrew were all saved.
Besides these three, the Lockwoods, a Brit
ish ship, met the same fate, and 40 or 50 per
ished.
The Liverpool papers contain melancholy
and distressing details of the loss of many val
uable lives, rjid an immense amount of pro
perty. The disasters among tho shipping
were terrible.
The gale commenced, according to the Liv
erpool Courier, the night of the 6th January.
The devastation as far as heard from, at the
last Liverpool date, Jan. 10th, had been dread
ful. On land the destruction of buildings, out
houses, walls, roofs, cliimnies, hay stacks,
fences, Ac.—besides fractures and other in
juries received by individuals. Many vessels
were sunk in the river Mersey, and in the
Liverpool docks, and fifteen vessels were
ashore at Bootle Bay. The direction of the
gale was from the S. W. but afterwards still
more violently from the west. The streets
of Liverpool were strewed with slate, tiles,
fragments of chimnies, Ac, blown from the
roofs. The house of Mrs. Lawrence had the
roof and all the floors driven in by the fall of
the stack of chimnies, killing that lady, and
injuring several others. So also the house of
Mrs. Marsh, crushing to death her two sons
and the servant girl. A number of other hous
es in the city were crushed in the same way
causing altogether the death of some 6 or 10
persons.
It is surprising, however how many persons
buried beneath these ruins, were rescued un
injured by the praise worthy exertions of the
police officers.
Among the hair-breadth escapes is related
the following: A widow lady in Walnut
street, opposite the end of Mulberry street,
who kept an infant school, terrified by the
prospect of having her window blown in, plac
ed herself in a position against it to prevent
so unfortunate a calamity, when the roof gave
way and fell at her feet, and at the same in
stant the wall fell outwards, leaving her stand
ing without the slightest injury.
The accounts from the interior are quite as
frightful as those from the sea-coast. At
Manchester the violence of the storm was ter
rific. In the surrounding country the destruc
tion of trees was immense.—ln one park alone
150 were prostrated, and 170 more very much
injured by the loss of large limbs and branch
es. At Blackburn no less than eleven facto
ries had their chimnies levelled, doing great
damage in their fall.
The storm extended to Ireland, committing
great ravages in Dublin and other places.
Near to the spot where the Oxford was
wrecked, the steamer Redwing a tender for
the mail went ashore. So violent was the
hurricane, that although the Redwing had
three anchors out, and her full power of steam
on one of the cables snapped and thu other
two anelwrs dragged, the vessel going bodily
on shore, till at last the captain was obliged
to slip his cables to avoid runing into the
Oxford. The wind then drove the vessel
on her beam ends, and being unable to get
her head to windward, she went on shore side
way. <
The N. Y. Commercial of the I2th inst
says,—The flags of all the shipping in port are
now at half-mast in token of regard for the
memory of the much lamented Captain Smith,
of the Pennsylvania, and those of his officers
and passengers.
The amount of cotton shipped from tho port
ol St. Marks, Florida, during the fourth quar
ter of the year 1838, was seven thousand two
hundred and fifty-one bags.
The number of hogs slaughtered in Cincin
nati this year, is variously estimated at from
138,080 to 104,00 ft We should think (says a
Baltimore paper,) that the people of Cincinna
ti would be ashamed to look a hog in the face.
The hogs thus slaughtered, if placed in file,
allowing four feet to each animal, would ex
tend a hundred and forty seven miles.
Specimen of the R. I. Banks. —The Cranston
Bank in Rhode Island, has been in operation
over twenty years, and its entire loss thus far,
has been but S4B 38 cents.
The great earthquake at Martinique—and
the subsidence of the water and appearance of
a fissure in the lake at St. Louis, occurred
within a few days of each other—and probably
were effects of one and the s?me cause.
« The Legislature of Alabama have passed
an act locating their Penitentiary at Wetuinp
ka, and another making the issue of shin plas
ters a penal offence. That body has also abol
ished imprisonment for debt, and appropriated
SIOO,OOO for the support of common schools
The receipts of Cotton in Macon, up to the
Ist instant, were 53,038 bales; the receipts last
year up to the same period, were 75,824 —
showing a deficit crop thus far, in that market,
of 23,000 bales.
Liability of Steamboat Ownerr. —We learn
from the St. Louis Republican, that Capt Car
ter, of the steamboat Diana, has been arrested
at New Orleans, and held to bail in the sum
of $50,000, as- one of the owners of the unfor
tunate steamboat Gen. Brown, the blowing up
of which took place some weeks since. The
arrest was made under the late law of Con-!
gress, making the owners of steamboats liable
for negligence upon boats, by which loss of
life is sustained.
BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE.
CONGRESS.
Wa4hi«oto;», Feb. 7.
In the Senate, the qeeation of abolition was
incidentally the theme of discussion again this
morning. A petition was presented by Mr.
Clay, of Kentucky, from the citizens of this
District, asking that Congress would not inter
fere in their domestic relations. On this sub
ject Mr. Clay came out in a bold and manly
manner, and was highly complimented by Mr.
Calhoun, for the avowal he had made. Mr.
Calhoun said he might now consider abolition
as done, fairly at an end! Mr. Clay placed
the abolitionists in three different classes in
this country. First, those who, from feelings
of philanthropy and humanity, were opposed
to the existence of slavery. Second, those
who were apparently abolitionists, and sought
to ingratiate themselves with the first class
for sinister purposes, endeavoring to make
them believe that liberty of speech, tlie right
of petition and freedom of tlie press were at
tempted to be infringed by the South. Third,
those who weTe ultra abolitionists, and sought
to attain their ends, reckless of all consequen
ces, of the rights of property, of honor, of pat
riotism, of all those feelings that should bsnd
the people of these confederated States in one
firm bond of union, brotherhood ami love.
What was it to this class that they should
overthrow the fairest fabric ever reared by hu
man wisdom—a government, in the success of
which were involved the best hopes of man
kind. Mr. Clay took a constitutional view of
the subject and denied the power of Congress
to interfere with slavery in this district, with
out a palpable breach of faith, and submitted
to the good sense of the people, whether if
the power was expressed, it would be wise or
politic or safe, to interferp with the existing
domestic institutions. He occupied tho Sen
ate about two hours, and the petition was or
dered to be printed and laid on the table.
No other business was transacted, worthy
of notice, and at the conclusion of Mr. C’s.
remarks, the Senate immediately adjoorned.
In the House, Mr. Johnson, of Louisiana,
presented a petition signed by several thousand
citizens of that State, soliciting the entire re
peal of the act providing for the naturalization
of foreigners, and that Government will make
provision by law, for the protection of the
United States from the indiscriminate influx
of foreign emigrants, both of which they deem
necessary for the preservation of our republic
and glorious institutions.
On motion of Mr. Johnson, the petition was
ordered to be printed and referred to a Com
mittee of the Whole.
Feb. 8.
In the Senate, Mr. Wall, from the commit
tee on the Judicary, reported a bill in answer to
so much of the petition of America Vespuc- !
ci which asks the right of citizonship.ATho
committee report unfavorably to the petition
er, and give as a reason that they have no
power by the Constitution of the United States
to make such a grant. This Government, the
report says, is a government of limited powers,
and no such grant as that prayed for could be
made without altering the constitution, and
this they consider inexpedient.
Feb. 9.
In the Senate, the resolution offered by
Mr. Davis on a former day, calling upon the
Treasury Department for information as to
the amount of revenue collected during the
last ten years, was taken up and adopted.
After the disposal of some reports from
Committees of a private nature,
Mr. Morris presented about twenty memori
als from citizens of non-slavctioldmg stutes,
asking of the abolition of slavely in the District
of Columbia.
Mr. Morris supported the prayer of the me
morials in a speech of two hours in length.
His remarks were intended as a reply to the
: unanswerable arguments of Mr. Clay.
Mr. Benton then called up for consideration
his bill for the armed occupation of Florida.
The question being on its indefinite pospone
ment, Mr. B. spoke at some length jn opposi
tion to tho motion.
Feb. 11.
Very little business was transacted in the
Senate to-day. Mr. Wall made a long and
able speech against Mr. Crittenden’s project
! for preventing government officers from inter
! sering in elections.
| In the House, Mr. Evans, from the Commit
tee on Commerce, reported a bill making np
j propriations for the survey of certain rivers.
Also, a bill making appropriations for the
construction of certain roads in the Territory
| of Florida.
j Mr. Cushman, from the same committee,
: reported a bill for establishing a port of entry
| at St. Joseph’s, in the Territory of Florida,
j which bills were severally read twice, and
1 committed to a Committee of the Whole.
Mr. Rice Garland, pursuant to notice, on
leave, introduced a bill providing for the tak
ing of the sixth census of the people of the U.
S., which bill was read twice, and committed
i to a Committee of the Whole.
Feb. 12.
In the House, Mr. Cambreleng, from the
Committee on Ways and Means, reported a
bill for the construction and repair of certain
fortifications tor 1839. The whole amount
required is $242,00u. It was read twice and
committed.
The remainder of the day was taken up in
the consideration of bills relating to the Terri
tories.
Feb. ia
In the Senate, on Wednesday last, Mr.
Strange, of N. C\, occupied nearly the whole
day wilh a Speech on the bill to prevent the
interference of certain Federal officers with
elections.
In the House, the bill for the suppression
of duelling in the District of Columbia, was
passed by a majority of 107 to 22. A motion
to reconsider, negatived by 99 Does to 45
ayes.
The Consort.— We learn that the Secre
tary of the Navy has approved of the conduct
of Lt. Gardiner in reference to the French brig
Alcibiade, which fired a shot ahead of the
Consort as she was entering the port of Vera
Cruz. We take it, the whole nation approves
also, now that the circumstances are correctly
understood.
The Defalcation Committee concluded their
investigations on flhe 9th inst, and left that
day for Washington. The result of their la
bors will be looked for with great interest

INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE.
The Washington Intelligencer of the 13th
inst. says:
The whole of the Investigating Committee
of the Hoise of Representatives neve now re
turned to this city, and yesterday met at the
CapitoL It is said that they are to-day to
meet at the Treasury Department to pursue
their inquiries.
The Madisonian of Thursday says that
“the oonmiltee will prosecute their labors

The jreat law Argument. —We had
the satisfaction of hearing the argument
of Mr. Vcbster before the Supreme Court,
on Saturday last on the great question in
volved in the suit of the Bank of the U. S.,
appcllart, vs. Wm. D. Primrose involving
the very grave question, of the right of
a Corporation, created by one of the States,
to do in any other State such acts as the
members of that Corporation, in their in
dividual capacity, have an undoubted right
to do. When we say that the argument
which we heard was profoundly learned as
well as original, and luminously illustrat
ed, we express no more that every one
lias a right to expect on all like occasions,
from the great New England jurist and
legislator.
Nkw-York U. S. Senator.— -An at
altempt has been made in each branch of
the Legislature to elect a U. S. Senator,
in place of Mr. N. P. Tallmadge, whose
time will expire on the 4th of March next.
Several hallotings took place. In the
Senate, on the first ballot, Tallmadge
(Conservative) received 13 votes, Mayn
ard (Whig)? votes —Scattering, enough
to prevent a choice. A motion to unite
in joint ballot withthe Senate, was laid on
the table in the House, and that body en
tered into another ballot, whiclt resulted
thus: Tallmadge 77, Addison Gardiner
(V. B.) 42, scatteringS. The result on the
sixth trial stood, Beardsley (V. B.) 16,
Maynard (Whig) and scattering 16, the
Senators wkp first named Tallmadge
voting for Beardsley.
The Albany Journal says it is now man
ifest that Mr. Tallmadge can not he re
elected, as he can in no even! obtain a ma
jority of the Senate.
Ex-President Jackson is in town this
i week, attending the trial of three of his
'negroes charged with killing a negro man
I belonging to Stokely Domeldson, Esq.
We saw the Ex-President at the Court
House, yesterday, very busy in giving
directions to his counsel, it! his own em
pliatic manner. He looks as well ns he
did five years ago.—[Nashville Banner,
of Saturday 30th.
Ciminese Marketincj. —lt is very re
volting, (says the author of the Fan Q.ui
in China) to the feelings of the Eu
ropean, upon his first visit to China, to
observe the natives preparing to make
their meals upon those domestic animals
which he has always been accustomed to
look upon with a degree of fondness and
affection. The dog, especially, has always
been considered the friend and compan
ion of man, and the only friend, some
times, that is left him, after he has been
deserted by the rest of the world. But
the craving appetite and calls of hunger
will generally overthrow the strongest ties
of affection and gratitude. It was thus at
the siege of Jerusalem, when the starving
mother fed upon the flesh of her own mur
dered child; and a still more appropriate
illustration is given, in that true and faith
ful sketch from nature Lord Byron has
drawn of the shipwreck of Don Juan, and
which is founded on an actual occurrence.
The Chinese of the upper ranks are as
fastidious and expensive in their food as
any other people, while the lower orders
are altogether as filthy. This evidently
arises from tl»e great scarcity of provisions
among so many millions of people, and the
necessity, therefore, of sustaining nature
by whatever can possibly afford any nour
ishment. This naturally leads, in lime, to
a total loss of discrimination as to the
quality of food eaten, and an animal in
the market would, therefore, be valued
only in proportion to the quantity of flesh
upon the bones; without any reference to
its flavor or state of preservation. A gen
tleman walking through the market one
day, at Canton, observed that a pheasant
and a cat were put up for sale at She same
price; and you will frequently observe, at
the same place, dogs, cats, and rats sold
indiscriminately, according to their weight
lnerease ts the Texian JVatry. —They arc
now building at Baltimore, for the government
of Texas, one small frigate of 22 gum, two
pm brigs and three schooners—enough to
look after Mexico, at all events.
“Admittance 25 cents, children half
price, to see a first rate livin’ skeleton,”
as the man said arter he bad taken a dose
of Brandreth’s Pills.
