THE ADVOCATE.
BRUNSWICK, (Ga.) MAY 25, 1839.
we publish the proceedings of a pub
lic meeting held on the evening of the 22d
inst. to which we invite the attention of all
persons having; an interest in tire prosperity
and growth JPbnf city.
It is matter of deep regret that our enemies
in Savannah instead of resorting to legal
means are willing to make an appeal to mob
law, and still more so that one of our citizens
should be found willing to engage in such an !
unjustifiable process. If those gentlemen do
not deem their titles wortless why should they
not use means to obtain legal redress? They
sit quietly j|pfcvann‘ih till the exertions of
the Brunswick I .and Company have enhanced
the value of property here and then consult
violent measures!
These land claimants in Savannah have a
heavy responsibility on their shoulders which
every good citizen and friend of order should
wish to avoid.
PUBLIC MEETING.
At a public meeting of the citizens of
Brunswick, held at the Court House on the
evening of the 22d inst., the following pream
ble and resolutions were adopted:
Whereas we have heard with surprise and
i-egrct that an act of violence is contemplated
by certain individuals in taking possession, by
forcible entry of property in this city belong
ing to the “Brunswick Land Company”—
Therefore, Resolved, That we feel it our
duty to support the interests of the “Bruns
wick Land Company,” and that we will not
suffer an act of such flagrant injustice to be
committed in our city.
Resolved, That we will treat as an enemy
every man who shall be engaged in such an
outrage upon public order and private right.
Resolved, That we will sustain the agent
of the “Brunswick Land Company” in any
legal attempts he may make, as agent, to re
tain the possession of lots now enclosed by
him.
Several gentlemen present addressed the
meeting, ami all spoke to the same etlect; the
determination of the citizens as expressed in
the resolutions was unanimous.
The following are the names of those who
voted for the resolutions, there being no votes
against them.

Putting the Wheels in motion. The
monotony of a warm Summer afternoon was
agreeably broken in upon on Wednesday last,
by the Brunswick Lumber Company starting in
motion for the first time, the machinery of
their splendid Steam Mill, just completed.
On the occasion, a large party of ladies and
gentlemen visited the mill by invitation of the
stockholders. The upright saws only, were
put in operation, together with the power that
takes the log from the basin in the river, to the
carriage. The whole was complete in its
/movements. The first plank sawed war im
mediately converted for the purposes of a ta
ble, on which bounliful supplies of refresh
ments were placed. Many hearty expressions
of wishes for success, &c. followed, and all
passed off in the most happy manner.
It is with much pleasure that we congratulate
the Company upon the substantial aud perfect
manner in which every part of their estab
lishment is finished, and upon the complete
ness of that portion of it, to which it was ne
cessary to call into exercise, powers of high
mechanical ingenuity and science. These
have been ably performed by Mr. James M.
Sturtevant, a worthy and modest gentleman,
who is already favorably known in many parts
of our country as an excellent machinest. —
We are happy to know that the Company pro
perly appreciate his talents«nd believe them
selves truly fortunate in securing the inter
est and services of one, so well able to keep
their great machine in motion.
APPOINTMENT BY THE PRESIDENT.
John C. Nicoll to be Judge of the United
States for the District of Georgia, in place of
Jeremiah Cuylcr, deceased.
The following article fram tire Charleston
Courier seems to have been called forth by
the report of a Committee of Council of Colum
bus, (Geo.) which we published in our last.
Verily, we do believe that our good port of
Brunswick may yet, amidst the contentions of
the different sections for a proper outlet for
the great trade of the West, have justice done
her—the people only want light—those desir
ous to seek it, we invite to visit our city, and
if they are not convinced by an examination
of our advantages, of the capability' of this
place for a great emporium, we w ill give the
subject up forever.
“This is an extract from a report of MrAViley
Williams, of Columbus, on the subject of
tnule with the Atlantic, instead of the Gulf.—
This report had no sooner been published, we
are informed, than Montgomery sent a delega
tion to Columbus, saying she would build to
the Ocmulgee bend via Columbus, if the At
lantic cities would respond to their move, and
connect the Ocmulgee to the Flint at Pindar
town.
But mark the “alternative,” if this is not
done, why they must wait till the Brunswick
and Florida road is built, and then unite with
that. Now the Brunswick road is further from
Pindartown than the Ocmulgee river itself,
and when it is reached, the distance to Bruns
wick will be much greater than the whole dis
tance from Columbus to the Ocmulgee river—
at least 110 miles.
We are sorry, Messrs. Editors, to find that
there is so much confusion on the subject of
the great Cotton road , that it is proposed the
City of Charleston should take an interest in.
This road is to unite the Cotton trade of the
Gulf, the Alabama river and the Tennessee
river, at Pindertown, upon the Flint river, and
to bring that Cotton over a distance of 0(5 miles,
to the Atlantic steamboats at the Ocmulgee
river. Wh at has this road to do with a travel
road from Brunswick to the Gulf, at St. Jo
seph’s or Pensacola? for if you make that road,
other than a travel road , it is antagonist to the
Montgomery or Spalding road, it aims to unite,
at Brunswick, the trade of the West with that
of the Gulf. But he who knows any thing of
the map that has been exhibited, at the office
of Messrs. Jervcy, Waring and White, can
say that the idea is preposterous. No, we
want, it is true, to have otir travellers taken to
the Gulf vapidly as possible; and when Charles
ton has obtained the Cotton of Alabama, Flor
ida and 'Vest Georgia—she may then look to
the good that the Brunswick road will afford
her in the way of travel, not before.
One word more. Look to the difference of
the two works—one (Hi \ii.'cs, and capable of
yielding a greater revenue than any similar
work in the Union—(soo,ooo bales of Cotton
and the return merchandize to redeem it, this
a minimum:) the other 210 miles, and terminat
ing upon the same river West. But what is to
become of the travel along the Hamburg road
lo Orleans, if it goes across from Brunswick to
Pensacola? Do not let us wait for this mam
moth that is to eat up all other interests, cities,
rail-roads, &c. &c. AN OBSERVER.”
It is a. connexion of the great Western
communication with the Brunswick and Flori
da Rail Road at a point near the Flint River
which so alarms our Charleston friends.
The Legislature of New York, within a few
days past lias adjourned, and from the follow
ing article it appears that the great subject of
Internal Improvement has suffered severely
from a Loco Foco Senate.—We, in this State,
must take a lesson, and even now begin to
look about us for nten, who will study the in
terests of their constituents, and the great in
terests of the State, in preference to that of par
ty or sectional feeling.
[From the Albany A-dvoTtiser.]
The great cause of Internal Improvement
stands stili! The Senate, obedient to the
Argus, has strangled all the Improvement bills
which had been passed in tire Assembly. ? If
Hie Empire State is disposed to go back into
its shell—if the People want no more Canals
and Rail Roads, they will attach themselves 4o
the Van Buren car, re-elect his followers, and
prepare for that consummation so devoutly in
voked bvtlie Ex-Attorney-General—“PEßlSH
COMMERCE! PERISH CREDIT!”
We have received from the publishers, G.
W. Palmer &. Cos; of Boston, part first of the
“North American Arithmetic.” The author
of this little valuable school book, Mr. Freder
ick Emerson, has prepared three distinct books
with the above title, the first of w hich is de
signed for small children, all the lessons being
illustrated with cuts and unit marks. Part
second ia intended as the final book for
mon schools, and die third and last, for ad
vanced scholars. This work has been favora
bly received wherever it has found its way,
and has been adopted in most of the public
schools at the North. We cheerfully recom
mend it to the notice of teachers and parents
at the South.
“Augusta Mirror.” No. 1. Yol. 11. of this
work is now before us. We have not seen a
copy of this publication before for nearly a
year, at which time a number was sent us,
and the work favorably noticed in our co
lumns. The “Mirror” was placed upon our
exchange list at that time, from which it was
shortly after erased, in consequence of its not
being again received.
The Naval Court of Inquiry, now sitting in
Philadelphia on the case of Commodore Elli
ott, is still progressing. We learn from the
North American that upwards of thirty wit
nesses have been examined, and it is suppos
ed that about that number more will be called
upon before the Court adjourns. The Court
will then decide whether a court martial is ne
cessary to examine further into the charges.
The evidence in the case, it is presumed, will
not be made public until called for by Con
gress.
The report from New Orleans of the arrival
there of Maj-Gen. Macomb, in company with
Gen. Wool, is altogether an error, arising
from the similarity of names. It was Lieu
tenant Macomb who accompanied Gen. Wool.
BRUNSWICK ADVOCATE.
Reduction Convention. —ln our last pa
per we published the proceedings of this body
to Saturday, the 11th inst. We condense
from the Augusta Chronicle nnd Sentinel the
following proceedings to its final adjournment:
Monday, 13th—the Convention met at i)
o’clock.
Mr. Dougherty of Troup, offered a resolu
tion with a view to cut off further discussions,
by settling the principle whether the Conven
tion shall be bound by the restrictions of the
Legislature; but after provoking a discussion of
one hour, Mr. Dougherty withdrawed his reso
lution.
The Convention then went into Committee
of the Whole on the Report of the Committee
of 30, on the organization of the Senate.—
Messrs. Gibson of Upson, Davis of Lee, and
Battle of Marion, severally addressed the
House, the two latter in speeches of consid
erable length.
Mr. Hull of Clark, offered a substitute, giv
ing each judicial district four Senators, mak
ing 40 in all; which lie accompanied with a
few remarks explanatory of his views.
Mr. Springer of Carroll opposed it in a few
remarks, as also did Messrs. Strickland, Tift,
and Hunter.
Mr. Hunter offered a substitute for the
whole, providing for the Senate to remain as
it now is, one member from each county.
The proposition of Mr. Hunter was lost by
a large majority.
The substitute of Mr. Hull was also reject
ed, and the report of the Committee then adopt
ed, and on a division the yeas were 17(5—a
majority.
The Committee then rose, reported progress
and obtained leave to sit again.
Mr. Gamble moved to re-comrnit the report
to the Committee of 30, with instructions to
arrange the Senatorial districts, so as to leave
political parties as near as possible in their
present relative conditions, in the Senate.
This produced some debate, and with some
feeling, Col. Gamble withdrew it.
The Convention then adjourned til! 3 o’clock
this evening.
Your readers will observe that ever since
the Committee of 30 made their report, the
Convention has been going through that re
port, and discussing, passing upon it section
by section, in Committee of the whole House.
It may not be unacceptable that 1 should sum
up briefly, what has been done thus far. It
has been determined,
Ist. That each countv in the state shall be
entitled to one member in the Ilouse of Rep
resentatives.
2d. Every county having n representative
population of six thousand, shall be entitled to
one additional member, making two.
55. Every county having a representative
population of twelve thousand, shall be en
titled to two additional members, making three.
4. That senatorial districts shall he formed
bv throwing together two contiguous comities
throughout the state, without regard to popu
lation.
It now only remains to adjust the arrange
ment of the counties into districts, and the la
bors of the Committee of the whole will then
report the result of its labors to the Conven
tion when the whole matter will have to be
gone through with again, and the yeas anil
nays recorded on the various propositions sub
mitted.
\Ve shall this evening ascertain beyond
doubt whether it is the intention of the Union
party to make use ot’its power in the Conven
-1 tion, so to arrange the Senatorial districts as
j to ensure to themselves a permanent majority
jin that body. Wlmt has been done thus fur
j is so unreasonable and unjust to the populous
counties that it does not deserve to be rati
fied, and if to all this be stiperadded a party
I organization of the Senate, 1 am confident
j that it never will bo.
I Three o’clock—The Convention met and
went into Committee of the whole, on the re
port of the Committee of 510, the organization
of tire Senate into Senatorial Districts, being
the matter for consideration. There were
changes made in five districts to accommodate
local and sectional wishes, hut every attempt
to make any change so as to produce any
tiling like a just equilibrium of parts, was voted
down by a strict party vote. The following
are the alterations made: The liith district is
to be composed of Liberty and Bryan, instead
of Bulloch and Brvan—the 17tli, of Tatnill and
Bulloch, instead of Tatnall and Liberty—the
27th of Morgan and Newton, instead of Mor
gan and Walton—the 2“th of DeKalb and
Henrv, instead of Newton and Henry—and
the ‘Jfttli of Walton ami Gwinnett, instead of
DeKalb and Gwinnett. The balance of the
districts all remain as reported by the Commit
tee.
The Committee of the whole then made its
report to the Convention, and an adjournment
took place.
Tuesday, May 14.
.The Convention met this morning at 10
o’clock, having under consideration the report
of the Committee of the Whole, the particulars
of which I have already detailed to you.
Mr. Stark of Butts, olleroil a substitute giv
ing to each county one Senator, and basing
the House upon population, exclusively, giving
one representative to every 4000 inhabitants
on the federal basis plan, by which the House
is reduced to 113 members. The small coun
ties are thrown together to form representative
districts of 4000 population.
Mr. Stark in submitting this substitute made
a few rem»tg, in which he told his own party
in plain teffir, that they were endeavoring to
force through the Convention a plan for party
purposes, which the people would not ratify.—
They had rejected a similar plan once before
on account of its party character and its gross
inequality, and they would reject the one n
dopted by the Committee of the Whole. He
declared it to be his solemn conviction that
the plan offered by him, although far from per
fect, was the best that could be obtained and
ratified. .
A long debate on various points of order,
and amendments to the substitute, ensued.
Mr. Patrick of Franklin, moved to lay the
substitute and amendments to it on the table
for the balance of the session. On Jliifejilo
tion the yeas were 140, nays 145.
The substitute was then amended in several
particulars of no material importance. At
tempts were made to strike out 8000 as the
ratio for 2 members, and insert 7600—and to
strike out 12,000 for 51 members, and insert
11,000 —all lost by large majorities.
The Convention then adjourned till 3o’clock.
The Convention met at 3 o’clock. It was
expected that a vote would be taken on Mr.
Stark’s substitute, but in this, the House was
disappointed. Mr. Stark accepted an amend
ment promised by Mr. Wofford, to strike out
the federal basis and insert the white basis.
Mr. Dawson objected to the right of Mr. Stark j
to accept such an amendment without the con
sent ot the Ilofise. The President decided :
that he had that right; from which decision,
Mr. Jenkins took an appeal. The House, by
a vote almost strictly party in its character,
sustained the decision of the Chair. Yeas
113, nays 132. Mr. Jones of Muscogee, then !
moved to reinsert the federal basis in Mr.!
fstark s substitute, on which motion the yeas \
and nays were recorded, Yeas l!*:$ ns.vs 82.
This piuced the substitute of Mr. Stark before I
the House in its original form, but the angry]
debate which had followed that gentleman's
untimely acceptance of the proposition to
strike out .the federal basis, bad so distracted j
the friends of the substitute, that a vote could ;
not be taken. Mr. Haynes of Hancock, for!
the purpose of further embarrassing the sub- i
stitue, moved another substitute, giving to
each county one Senator and one Reprcseuta
’ five; to those counties having a population of
7000, one additional member, and to those
having 11000, two additional members, Mr.
Oliver of Elbert, moved to lav Mr. I lav tie's
substitute o:i the table for the present. Yeas
]:{9, nays I 12.
Judge Berrien then moved to strike ont.“one
Senator from eacii county,” and insert “forty
six Senators from two contiguous counties.”—
On this motion n warm and animated debate
arose in which Messrs. Berrien, Dougherty of
Troup, Jones of Muscogee, Davis of Leo,
Hunter and Springer 1 participated. At a late
hour m the afternoon a vote was taken on the
motion of Judge Berrien, and the yeas were
1455, nays 142. Tire Convention then adjourn
ed till ft o’clock, to morrow morning.
Wednesday, May loth, lPslft.
The Convention met this morning at ft o’-
clock. Judge Berrien rose and said that it
was desirable to have a recess of the Conven
tion for one hour, inasmuch ns some confer
ences had been had between gentlemen of
botii parties in the Convention, for the purpose
of divining a plan acceptable to both parties,
and it was believed that an understanding
i could be effected in an hour, by which the
labors of the Convention might be brought to
a close. In compliance with this request, the
: Convention adjourned till II o'clock,
i After the lapse of time lor the recess, the
j members again assembled, when Judge Berrien
J offered a substitute r.jtiie result of the Confer
ence, ami w liich is in substance as follows:
That there shall he 4(5 Senators from the same
j number of districts formed by two contiguous
] counties—that there shall be 112 Representa
tives, of which each county shall have one.
The arrangement of the details for both Hous
es to he left to the next Legislature, and to
each Legislature first after every census.
Judge Is. enforced the adoption of his substi
tute, in a strong, effective, and beautiful
speech.
Mr. Dougherty, of Troup, offered a substi
tute for that of Jiidgc Berrien, except that it did
i not secure to each county one member in the
House of Representatives.
After considerable debate in which many
"entleiiien tool: part, the Convention adjourn
ed till 3 o’clock.
May Ititli, 185$ft.
The Convention adjourned sine die. this day,
between 12 and 1 o’clock. The report of the
Committee of the w hole was adopted without
material amendment, and comprise the ameinl
l merits to the Constitution to ho offered to the
i people for their ratification or rejection.
The leading provisions are substantially as
follows:
Ist. The .Senate to consist of It! members
from Senatorial districts of two contiguous
counties each.
Each County in the State to he entitled to
'one member in the House of Representatives
i without regard to population,
j Those counties having a representative pop
ulation of six thousand, are entitled to two
j members.
Those counties having a representative pop
ulation of 12,000, are entitled to three members.
Tire number of members in the Legislature
never to he increased beyond that number
which the last census w ill give under the above
ratio, except when anew county shall he cre
ated.
Emfit are the provisions of the amendments
to tlie Constitution, now before*the people for
their decision. The Monitorial districts arc
laid off so us to give the Union party, who are
in a minority in the state, a majority of eight
or ten in the Senate, which in a reduced Sciva
[ ate, is equal to a majority of 1(5 or 20 in that
body, as at present organized. It is well known
that, in the Inst Senate, the State Right’s Party
had a majority; their indignation then, upon be
ing thus, by a party maiucuvre in the Conven
tion, thrown into a minority of 8 or 10 in a re
duced Senate, may he well imagined.

Whom she that morn had sent 3-packing—
“ The doom that in the realm below
Awaits lone ladies, husbands lacking?
Dismal for aye, the hapless maids
Lead apes, through I’luto’s gloomy shades!"
“I know,” quoth Pat, with scornful air;
“Nor does the doom awake my fear:
Id rather, far, lead monkeys there,
Than let a monkey lead me here.”
