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. Benj. Talbot, M oses V'. Wilson, A. 11. Meriain, E. M. Moore, /.Jones, Jr. Edward Walsh, Rob’t.

Dart, Secretary. 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.
