A case was called in our Superior Court, on Monday last, when, one of the counsel being ah- , sent (gone, as was supposed, to otter his devo tions at the shrine of Hy men,) another of the counsel mentioned his absence, und suggested that the ease should therefore ho laid over. The judge (who understood it lo have been said, that the absence was caused by indisposition,) replied, that itnsiauch ns Col. was indis posed, the case might he passed ; when conn aellor observed, that be could not say that Col. —— was absent from indisposition, unless a tendency to matiimony might bo considered as a disease. “Oil certainly not (said the Judge, very promptly,) and one might rather expect that such a tendency would incline him to Court.” COTTON MARKETS. By tho arrival of tho Br. barque George Wil kinson, at Charleston, wo have advices liom Eu rope to the 3d ult. Tho Live, pool Cotton tna.kol remained in the same dull slate, as noticed in our former report, and as the advicos received there,at that period, fiom tiiis country, represented the growth of Cotton in the Tinted Slates, in 1831, to have been at least 1,100,f)00 hales, with an excess of tho old crop, in this country, compared wi ll the sliock of the pievious year, on the Istof Oct. ol'about 100,000 bales, there was little, if any prospect, of an immediate improvement in pri ces. Holders of Cotton manifested a disposition to press sales, and tho consequence was, that in some instances, a reduction of an £d was sub mitted to. The sales of the week were 14,300 bales—lmports 9,040. Tlio imports oi'Cutton into Liverpool, from the Ist Jan., 1831, to Ist Dec., were 750,000 bales, against 730,000 during the same period the pio vious season. Os American Cotton, there ap peal* lo have been no difference in the imports during tho first eleven months of each year, be ing 537,000 bales. It is probable that tho im poits of Colton into Liverpool, during the month ot Doc. 1831, were considerably less than dur ing the corresponding month of the previous yoat. Tlie Cholera was extending in England; 14 now cases were reported in Sunderland, und 3 in New Castle, on the 98th Nov. Tho advices from Havre, of 2d nit. represent Cotton as being rather on the decline.—We give the following uxtract of a letter, dated Doc.

RICHMOND SUPERIOR COURT. Om Supreme Court is still silling, this being the fourth week of tlie present session, which closes, we believe, to-day. By on excellent ar rangement of the Judge, in occupying the whole of last week wjlh Special Jury business, and keeping the Petit Jury till this week, tho ses sion has thus been extended one week longer than usual; and by tins mean, with great indus try und perseverance, and keeping the Court open each day, from 10 A. M. till 5 P. M. with out adjourning for dinner, and longer occasion ally, as the eases unfin shad at tlio latter hour required it, his Honor has succeeded in calling, and trying, eeery case on the Dockets, not dis missed or laid over by the parties, according lo the proper forms of law—thus giving every suit or, under duo regard to the rights of the oppo site party, an opportunity of trying his cause & obtaining justice —t result which ha« never before occurred within our memory, or proba bly that of any member of our Bar. And in attaining this end, we understand he has sat, in one instance, nearly thirteen hours together, without the least sustenance.—lt is well known j that we have never entertained partiality for •J.ttdfe Uo\t cithtr as a politician or a Judge-. - f- '. \ .X \ ‘T*‘ W though we hive always highly respected him as c a gentleman, in private lii'u -and we still honest- J ly retain the same preference for Ids piedecos- v sor,am! late opponent, oponly expressed both ho t Tore and at the election—hut this shall never in- 1 duco us to withhold from him, that justice which is duo to him and every one else, despite of all M our own and other’s individual prefe-onces or i opinions. And, whan we reflect upon the fre- j quent distressing consequences of delays o fjvs- ties —amounting, often, '.o an entire prevention, t if not refusal, of it—and the groat individual in- e conveniences, losses, and privations, additional ' * n legal, and other expenses, «tc. &c. necessarily [j arising ft out the attendance of suitors and wit- r nes'ns, session after session, for yeats, without a effect—and upon the consequent salutary nature 1 and results ol the example sot hy the Judge—an „ example which cannot well be disregarded or n unimitatod herotiftcr, either hy himself or any e one else—we cannot refrain from awarding to 0 it tho highest praise, as a solid and substantial s henoflt to the community.—This is but justice— t that justice which wo desire to extend to every " man—and whatever may be onr individual or J party preferences or opinions, wo trust they will | never render us insensible to tho errors of our ’1 fiends, or the merits of our opponents, or disin- ' dined impartially to censuio the one or applaud ( the other. And if they ever should, wo shall be c at once unworthy of our piofession and tho con- v lldonce of the public, tho honest anti intelligent ' portion of which, wo are sensible, care nothing, J 1 and should not, for the opinions we express, fat- j llier than for the intrinsic mutter of the opinions ii themselves, without reference to the person 1 who expresses them. j i;rcL. i A friend in Columbus writes us, under datu of the !23rd inst. “A duel took placo today, at > Fort Mitchell, at hall past cloven o’clock, ho- 1 tween Maj.

Woollolk walked seven stops towa ds the crowd of spectators,& said “he has killed me.” Tho blood gushed out of his mouth; no viewed it attentively —laid him self upon luo giound, and expired immediately, without having again spoken.” A MUM CANDIDATE, Wc find the following precious announcement in tho "Lafayette Free-1’ rots,” puhlisilud in La fayette, Indians ; from which one might suppose, that the “Independent ruttrs” of ladiniiH,judge of the merits and qualifications of Ihcii candidates hy the quantity of hum limy “rollout"—believ ing, doubtless, that At has the most sense him self, who has tho strongest disposition to make fools and brutes of otheis, and the most means of clFecting it—or else, (hut the editor, who in iuj Anti Jackson man, published it, very significant ly and properly, as the best mode of disgracing j tho “Jackson candidate," and dole a dug h:s election. Surely the people of Indiana are not so besotted, so lost to decency and sulf’-respei't, as to give their sufluages only to men who thus o, only minister to their disgi acc and tliei: own appealing to their beastly piopensilios, rather than to their virtue and intelligence, as men, and freemen. “.Mr. Semans—.You are itnihofiswl to an nounco Kkviif.n Putnam as the JACK.tOX can didato lor comity Recorder: And moreover, ihut, 1 will roll out a b.i.rrl of RUM on the day of election.

We would recommend to the consideration of the editor of tile Lafayette Free Press, lliu “Jackson candidate,’’.and the peo, looflii.Uanu, the following proceedings of the Quarterly Conference for Sparta Circuit, held at Green’s Meeting House, on the 17th ult. which we copy from tho Hancock Advertiser: “Whereas, the practice of C.r d! hfti»s fi»r pin. ces in the gift of the people, t. ca’Tg tonromoto their election, is an evil(vve believe of no or dinary magnitude, producing n hen.or iging ef fect on society generally, and renuo-'g the candidates lliemselvrs unworthy to he tint rep resentatives of a civilizer, much more of a Christian people :■ a practice illegal in itself, and altogether contrary to the principles of (Jluisti niiity, and the Republican institutions of our country ; and, whereas, it is believed that this Manning evil can only be checked hy the united efforts of tho temperate and pal.iotic gene'.illy, and of tha followers of our Lord Jcsa* Christ particularly : therefore, “ Resolved , That hereafter we will not support any man, so any post or place, at an election, * who shall he guilty of the practice of treating, or using any other unlawful means to promote his election. “ Resol-ed , That tho Rev.

I Tho annual celebration of the Columbia Ty- i pograpliic.il Society look place recently at Wash ington. Several members of Congress, editors of papers, &.c. attended hy invitation. We have , b?cq struck with the following part of Mr. Ver planck’s speech, in which an entertaining refer ence is made to Dr. Franklin’s Chapel, probably now to many of our readers, ami an incident re lated of a compositor, not more honorable to tho individual alluded to, than interesting in itself, and calculated to excite tho industry and awaken tile ambition of the craft: “Amongst the earliest recollections of my boyish days, he said, were the amusing and in structive incidents of the early life of Benjamin Frantiin, ?.s related by hiptsejf: and erne of tha ; circumstances vvhich most struck and excited'! my boyish imagination in that beautiful narra tive, was that of his calling the ofllco in which ho vvoikod in London, a Chapel, according t 0 (| irt , traditionary phrase of English printers. It j s „ term that has gone much out of use, 1 have sim,,, learnt, on this side of the Atlantic, In this, Chapel, however, uhojit which, our g.eui [j||j| 0 . sopher and patribt printer first excited my cu riosity, it has been tho fortune, I think the good ' fortune, of my life, to have since passed mane hours. These were hours which I sometime# used to flatter myself might bo useful to others, they were certainly always agreeable and inter eslingto myself. I was there very early amt very fieqnenlly struck with the general mtullo gence and informal ion ot the craft: and 1 was often delighted with the native talent, the lile-i racy acquirement, the liberal principles, and the ardent minds of many of them with vvimin I thete became acquainted. I there m.,dc many acquaintances amongst your fraternity, whom £ shall always remember wilh respect mid kind ness, and not « tevv friends whom I honor ouj esteem. 1 have received amongst them the best offices, as a friend—(nor can 1 forget it,) aid suggestions, corrections, as sn author. One in', stance of this occurs to me at this moment, at.j the time and occasion will not allow me to pa*s it over. I was engaged some years ago in a mis. culhincous literary vvo-k, in conjunction with Ivvoot three fiicnds,whose writings are amoii'r-i the most valued productions ofnativc literature- The volumes were most accurately, ns well ail very beautifully printed. Before the shunts had. reached the binder, aud long before they had fallen under the eyes ol any regular editoii.il c itic, I was surprised will) a review of the wink in one of our beat and most widely circu lated literary journals. It was written with great talent, as well us elegance and spri'd,ill ness of style, and in the moat friendly spud. Q u inquiring for the name of our good nalnred and able critic, the authors were suqcisod to learn that he was the compositor who h.nl sol up the whole of the manuscript, cud who knew ft only in that way. Our friend has since laid down the slick for the pen, and is now, as I liust, vvinnim' liisway to fame and fortune, in another countivv Although 1 single out ilih instance, i mention it not as u singular one, but merely us un exam ple of ono amongst many singular. But to return to the idea with which I hegani !t was the e, and in-such company, that 1 leant to give its due import to Franklin's tcun of tha Chapel, which, if ft has become obsolete ia mar uy parts of onr country, ought not to bo so. 1 there learnt, amongst piintecs, and presscsi und forms, whiteveiy day's oiiservulion of my life out of doors couti, mod to mo, that this was indeed u Chapel—not of a fabulous tWiy or tra, dtlbinary saint, hut tho true Chape) of Liberty. There is her living presence, her homo, and tho seat of her power. There are tho ultais, upon which are hourly kindled the pure and tho bight lights of useful knowledge, for the guiding and illumination ofmunkiud. There, too, the G.«i dess tieasures up her aims, tier aigis, and hor lightnings. There is she worshipped hy u faith ful, au assidious, tin inuliigunt, an u. utnl aud bold and high-minded piicslliuoil."
