We ore assured that Government has

particularly the kingdom oi Naples Him
Piedmont, The general i’eruietuadon oc
casioned considerable anxiety’ to the Aus

It affords us great pleasure to read the
ridiculous remarks in the French mira
journals upon our poor country. _ lb
“ Banuiere Blanc” saluies us with the ti
tie of Jacobins, Sic. Their correspon

points. The one at Vai ;ncia lately infonli
<-d tue in that tiie royalist chief Jamie, hud
gained considerable advaiitrges over the
.Jacobins Bravo!
From the little which the French pa
pers have published respecting the con
spiracy of Moutarlot, we gather that all the
liberties in France ut ribute it to French
influence. It would not be strange if sonic
' fbing should be produced f.y such crafty'

I, Don John, by the grace of God and the

all my subjects, that the Cortes have
passed the fallowing decree :
The general, extraordinary and consti

having this day established a form of gov

provinces of Brazil, so that the residence
of tiie prince royal at Rio cle Janeiro has
become unnecessary—and having consid

that 11. U. 11. should visit some illustri
ous countries in order to acquire such
knowledge as is necessary to him who will
one day occupy tiie Portuguese throne—
Respectfully make known to the king that
they have resolved.
Ist. That the prince royal shall speedily
return to Portugal,

Portugal, shall visit incognito, the courts
and kingdoms of Spam, France ami Eng

India —The whole of the country of
Siam was at the Inst accounts in a deplo
cable slate in consequence of the spread
of the Cholera Mabus, from Hindustan,
where it has cairicd off half a million of
persons. In Sinn its ravages were so
dreadful, that a Hancock alone (the ca
pital) upwards of 40,000 perished. The
poorer classes of the Siamese unroofed
their houses to admit vultures and other
nircls of prey to carry off the dead. The
King had convened a council of nobles,
priests, and astrologers, to ascertain the
cause of this unprecedented mortality;
when they were unanimously of opi.iion
that it proceeded from an evil spirit in the
form of a fish, who bring disturbed in its
usual abode in a far uninhabited country,
had sought shelter there, and that the on
ly method was to frighten him back with
puns, muskets, drums, gongs, &c. Ac
cordingly an innumerable number of the.
inhabitants collected along the sea shore,
to put into execution the imperial man.
date; drums and gongs beat in all direc
tions: and thousands of the Siamese piling
,:d into the sea with spears, swords, stones
and other missiles, to frighten the fish; but
when the scene ended, about seven at
night, upward of souls were left
dead, with the Cholera morbus on the
beach and in the water! what a triumph
of priestcraft,

that Mr. James Till the Mayor of that

Mr. Till’s case was not decided.

"AUGUSTA,* ;
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1821. f
By a genth inan residing in Wilkes
county, we learn that the Bill incorporat
ing the Turnpike Company (for the Road
from hence to Athens,) has passed thro*
both branches of the Legislature, But
from the circuitous route by which the
news was brought here, \vc are af.uidit is
somewhat premature.
It is however, concerning subjects of this
kind only, that South Carolina and Geor
gia should think it worth their while to
contend ; and if there must be rivalry be
tween them, let it be about such things as
would be of advantage to either, or do ho
nor to both. The present jealousy be
tween the States, reminds im nf the reply
which an Irishman made to the neighbor
who asked, why he and his wife wore quar
relling :—“ All honey !it is because we are
both of the same mind; —she want* to
be master, and so do I ”
I
1 hero is a strange confusion of names,
belonging to the several counties and
towns of this State ; and the inconveni
ence to which it subjects every one, car
ries so much perplexity with it, that we
should like some alterations of them made,
and someth,ng like a system adopted for
the future.—For instance, there is—Ap
plington in Columbia,and Appling county;
Clarksbevo* in Jackson,and fßark county;
Irwinton in "Wi'kinson, and Irwin county .
Jefferson in Jackson, Jefferson in Camden,
and Jefferson county; Jacksonboro* in
Scriven, and Jackson county . Lawrence
ville in Gwinnett, and Laurens county;
Madison in Morgan, and Madison county;
Monroe in Walton, and Monroe county;
Washington in Wilkes, and Washington
county; Waynetbaro’ in Burke, & Wayne
county.
The F.Jitor of the Washington City-
Gazette in his of the 6th just attributes a
borrowed article to the “ Milled,jeville
Recorder,” which made iis appearance in
this paper, and has never had a place in
the columns of the other Acts of owis
tion are excusable, but acts of commission
seem to imply some degree of positive
knowledge.
Longevity ix Gsodgia.—Mrs. Phabe
yohnsun, aged 109 years, is still living in
Columbia county. She came with her
husband to this country in 1732, and was
the first while female that landed iu Gior
gia. Our information is derived from her
son-in-law; and he mentioned to us, that
the old lady intends removing wit i him
and his family, to Alabama, in the course
of a few weeks.

munications are unavoidably laid over till

Tiie last mail furnished nothing inter
esting of a political, or miscellaneous uu
litre. Nor has any thing of a local cha
racter occurred worthy of observation.

of some feeling and animation in a few in
