By tlie nr; ival, at New NorU, of the ship 1 uni
son, from London, and the Formosa, from llavte,
vve have our advices font the former city, ot
the Srtlh March, and from the latter ot the loth,
and from Liverpool, ofthe tTih.
Colton was much in favor in those markets,
and prices gradually improving. The principal
cheek lo extensive commercial operations, was
the increase of the Cholera, in London.
The sales of Cotton in the Liverpool market,
for the week ending tin; 7th March, were Jo.lbit
hales ( including -1000 bales American, .’OO Ilalda,
and 300 Maranhams, taken on speculation) of
which 12,0(10 bales were Uplands at fid a 7Jd.
We rive the following extract of a letter, dat
ed Liverpool Ifilh March.
“Notwithstanding the present year common'
ced with the prospect of an animated and exten
sive business, on a good and solid basis, say,
low pi ices, reduced stocks, and increasing con
| sumption—these favorable anticipations have
not yet been realized. It may, however, with
| fairness be remarked, that a steady demand is
I experienced for Foreign Produce, but this with
out any general b-iskness; and its not proving
| so lively as Iqtd beam looked for. probably re
j suits font the had effects to our external fl|m
mercc, hy the refusal of clean hills of health, in
London, to vessels clearing; the coitseipumce
of which, abroad, cannot yet be fully appreciat
ed: likewise, from the yet unsettled liefomi Kill,
and also the uncertainly as to the further com
mercial views of ear present Ministers, when
that measure is carried. To the former of these
! causes, is mainly attributed the want of buoyan
■|ey in our nniikets, for, had less ollicuii impor
i tance been attached to the spread of the Cltole
ra, nothing else could well prevent a biisk
spring business, and which, it is to be hoped,
may yet lake place.”
I ‘‘Havin', March 12.—■ Notwithstanding the ar
| rivals, tint demand lias continued animated, and
I the increased slock,far from dampening the mar
ket, has, in connexion with the news from the
. United Stales, rendered it more thin, and an ad
. 1 v.ntee has been obtained on some sorts, of 1 lo 2f.
Sj eeuktlions have opened a little. The good
and line sorts are held higher t.”
The sales of cotton during tho week, in ottr
I inaikct, have been respectable, and, generally,
I at an advance on the i uncut rates ol the previ
ims one, of | cent pr. lb.
The receipts f otn the interior have been quite
light, and from till we can learn, vve are ofth*
opinion, they will continue lo be so for the re
nt tinder of the season.
| Wo can note stale to ottr Savannah {fiends,
with great confidence, that they have generally
overrated the production of cotton in the Caro
uiinas and Georgia, in 1331.

TIIK F.iHIMIUOU MOTH.
Judge 'Loncstrkkt has deposited at Messrs.
RtciiAHns & Ganaiil’s IJook-Slcre, for tho
gratification rff the curious, the Lmperor Moth,
; phuhcrui juniinin (ph- pavonia Lin.) with its co
coon. This is the largest ofthe hutterf.y tr.be,
. cxocpt tlie phiiltrna atlas, ot India. “"It measures
six inches in the extent-of wings, and is varied
• hy a beautiful assortment of the most sober
colors, consisting Os while, deep and light
grny, black, brown,” dec.
The cocoon has two apartments, the outer of
which, is of tho chape cf a boat with the keel up
wards, and the inner (which is strictly the co
coon) of the shape, nearly, of a I' lorence
flask. The exterior apartment is Comparatively
, smooth, and resembles in colour ami texture, the
hornet’s nest. This-is cushioned, on he inside,
with a coarse, strong, light, snnll coloured silk,
in which is suspended the cocoon. *i he moth
made its escape through tho neck of the dimer,
and one ofthe points ofthe outer, at lUe seam
which connects tho wall with the flat bottomed
base. Thu apeiturc hero was so nicely closed
hy the contractile power ofthe silk fibres whir
in, that it was with difficulty discovered. But
for Iloesels perplexity with the cocoon of the
Emperor Moth, it probably would not have
boon discovered. It will ho seen, from this do
• I scription, that tho cocoon agrees with'(hat ofthe
vhche.mi jiinnniiio f Europe, in nothing but the,
shape of the inner cocoon. The moth, however,
agrees with it in every respect, except that in
stead of an eye-shaped spot, of a datk disk, ru
the centre of each wing, it has here ‘‘the white
patch” ofthe yhnhrm allav, and the dark spots
arc but two in number, and just below the ex
tremity-of the larger wings. These points of
difference have induced the Judge to call it
“the Emperor Moth Georgia.”

Tt will ho scon, by reference to the advettlso
ment, that litis highly pleasant and healtlilnl
summer retreat is now opened lor tho ensuing
season, and in readiness for the accommodation
of visiters. Ami, in publishing the following
highly flattering testimony from the Lev. Mr.
Hovt, of tho valuable and powerful medicinal
v j 1lu.'s1 u.'s of its mineral waters, we will simply add
that it accords with that of all whom we have
heard express their opinions, or speak of their
experience, as visiters at the Springs.
s.ns, April fiilt, Ic.'J.
linir Sir: —Your note ofthe 2d iflsl. Ifcs be
before me, in wli'n h you roiptfst me to give mj
■ dews of the Medicinal qualities of the Madison
Spt mg waters. With this i-erpiest I moslclieet
fully comply, rlo essential have-boon the ben
efits vv Inch have been experienced from the hse
of those waters, that 1 may well say, they stand
voiy high in my estimation. Whc-n 1 first visited
the Madison Springs, in the summer of 1330, my
health was very had. An attack of hi tous fe
ver, with which 1 had been Sorely aldictcd the
proceeding Autumn, (before my removal to this
place,) had left my stomach in a debilitated dys
peptic slate. From indigestion, debility, and fla
tulency, 1 suffered much. There, contrary to
my expectations, 1 found myself decidedly con
valescent in less than o.;e week. The acid so
cretions in a g’-eat measure ceased, and the sto
mar!), in a few weeks, assumed a tnoie health
ful lone. As you will no doubt, remember, I
visited the Springs several limes in the course of
that season, and till my visits wore attended
with the same happy effects. When I left tint
Springs, I had many tears that the beneficial ef
fects ofthe waters would not prove permanent.
• I am happy, (and Ifi ttst, grateful to God,) in
saying that those fe-.rs were groundless. My
health has been gradually improving ever since
my visit to that pure restorative fountain. My
case is not a solitary one. Well do I remember
the feeble, cadaverous appearance of a friend of
mine, who landed at your door one evening last
summer, from Washington, Wilkes county.
Ho hail just partially recovered from a fever,
and fll the lime of his arrival, he was evidently in
a deplorable slate of health. If I recoiled tight,
that gentleman, in about eight or ten days, had
so far retovered as to enable him to join in a
doer-chase without any inconvenience: and 1
believe in loss than one mouth, was perfectly
restored.
It is trite, as you intimate in your note, that I
have had a long and thorough acipiintnnco with
the mineral waters of Saratoga and Balaton. At
the Saratoga Springs I resided many years.
And highly as I value those justly celebrated
waters, especially in Scrofula, there is not one
spring among them all, (| crimps fifty in number)
whose waters 1 rottsiiler etjiia! to those of the
Madison Springs, in ordinary cases of debility and
dyspepsia.
lint as it usnaMy hapj ens at tho Saratoga
Springs, with those unaccustomed to tho wa
ters, so is it at the Madison Spring.-; patients
use the waters too freely at first, they do not al
low themselves sufficient time; they neglect to
take regular exercise; and in very many instan
ces, the increased apetitc is 100 freely indulged.
Were these mistakes or errors cautiously avoid
ed 1 have no louht that many invalids would
he i ostored to health by the use of tho Madison
Springs waters, who now leave tho place with
out receiving intielt essential hi nelit. ’I liese er
rors of which i have spoken, are not confined to
the,Saratoga and Madison Springs: they Usual
Iv obtain, 1 believe, at most of our watering | la
ces, and, therefore, they cannot he 100 fequent
!y exposed.
Where the deseaso consists in, or arises from,
an affection ofthe stomach, or a derangement of
the digestive oigans, I feed confident that by a
judicious use ofthe Madison Spring waters, in
most cases, permanent relief might be obtained.
It is scarcely necessary for me to say, Sir, that
the atmosphere about those Springs is remarka
bly elastic and salubrious. So far as my know
ledge extends, this fact is admitted by all who j
have ever been fanned and refreshed, on a liot
summer's day, by the cool breer.es whiob play
through the oak grove around your house.
. In conclusion, I do not hesitate to say, doit
numerous us the lies are which bind mo to A
thens, the value of a residence hero is consider
ably increased by the contiguity of tho place to
the Madison Springs.
I am, dear sir,yours, respectfully.

The following extract of a letter, from a gen
tleman of considerable | olitieal influence and
well deserved distinction, in this Slate, con
tains some sensible and patriotic suggestions,-it)
relation to the late movement on tho subject of
Reduction,, which are well worthy the serious
•consideration of the public, and wo therefore lay
them before it with much pleasure. We cordi
ally agree with tho views of the respected wri
ter, generally, & particularly with that in relation
to the unsuitablonoss of the pre°ent time to the
discussion of the subject, and the danger of agi
tating a question Which may greatly irritate live
feelings and divide (ho interests of tho people,
under circumstances of fer higher and more vital
•importance, which call loudly for the utmost har
mony and unanimity. TJivisinn, contention, or
discord, among ourselves, at a crisis like tho pre
sent, would amount to htfle less than absolute
disgrace, il‘not defeat; and, as too great sacri
fices cannot bo made to avert such consequen
ces, we trust that they who have agitated the !
subject, (peihaps without sufficient cc'nsidora- ;
lion of its present dangerous tendencies) will, I
on further reflection, think it prudent to pc>st- I
pone it, to some future arid more appropriate j
period, when tho whole interest, energy, uppli-j
cation, and investigation, of the State, may, as j
•they ought to he, and cannot ho at the present
time, ho brought to bear upon it, and prepared:
to do it proper justice.
"1 was highly gintrficd at reading your remarks
in the Chronicle of the Till inst. on tho Hancock
proceedings. This is not the time to act on (he.
question of “Reduction,” because it is one, on
I # _ i J
which there is -much diversity of opinion, anil j
out of which may grow much iriitation. The j
situation in which the titaln at tins period stands, j
is extremely critical, and to meet with effect |
any aggression on our Constitutional lights, j
there should he a kind, friendly, and patriotic j
feeling subsisting among all classes of oar cili- :
/.ens. Georgia must collect ail her strength to
breast tho crisis; and,by assuming a sum and )
decisive attitude, alone, can its evils be aveilcd. j
At this moment, it is poculiatly unfortunate to i
agitate this measure, because our own State, j
as well as tho whole South, are in the minority, i
in onr national councils, while in reality wo
bear a very large pioportinn of the burthens of
t’« Government, and though in the minoiiiy, we ;
there claim to have our interest represented, as
well as protected. Ours is a Government of i
opinion—not o f Jine-e; and no stop should now j
•opinion, On tho score of policy, then, this is |
nut the season to move in (his business; and \
j let tl», at a’i events, get rid of tho decision of the i
ISnpiemi* (,'oiiit, and the Chr~ukr."f, before wc :
come to any seiletis dillbrcnco among omsches.
Rut, sir, there is another aspect in which this j
j subject maybe viewed, and that is a conslitu. I
lineal one : Our existing constitution has plainly i
pointed out how alterations shall be made, and |
under that provision, several have passed. Il' l
the, one inspecting the representation has failed, ■
il has failed agreeably to the ) revisions in that
instillment. As directed by it, this last census ■
, \. i
was taken, and the now apportionment made, i
and because sente of the old counties have lost, |
and others gained, is that any reason for calling
a Convention. It is sotting a dangerous prece
dent, because the local interest of any pa. t
of the titate, is affected by a constitutional hear
ing, that a Convention is to remedy it r Resides,
I apprehend that you cannot call a Convention
to adjust this particular object alone; for, when
cnce the people moot in Convention, they have
the power to remodel tho whole system of our
State Government, Legislature, executive, and
Judicial. A convention celled to remedy sonic
particular and objections! point, would he i.mon
sistent, because under our present constitution,
there is a mode for remedying such defects. Tn
it, there is no provision for a limited alteration
. by Convention,«St the constitution to exist for tbe 1
remainder: the action must he in toto.—There
is another strong reason against this case. It is, j
that the Stale is not. in the actual possession of)
her whole lerrritoryj consequently, when cur
population extends over tho whole, there may
arise strong reasons for a further alteration.
Permit me, sir, to say, that 1 arn not against a
modification of the present representation; but
against it nnw. 1 feel, to the fullest extent, the
portentous situation in winch wo arc placed. 1
sec the absolute necessity of tbo most cordial
union among the whole South, to arrest any
further v Solution of the Federal Compact, though
you W'ell know, 1 am, and over have been, a
strong fi lend of the Uninn. lam anxious, then,
to use my humble exertions, at this period, to
unite all pm ties in the firm snppnit of our con
stitutional rights, for, if wo sulfur them to bo
\ iolaled in one instance, (hoy may bn, in onulho.;
ami for ibis purpose, I yield to no man, in propor
tion to my feeble means, in sustaining the rights,
honor, and sovereignly of Georgia, as guarantied
by the Federal Constitution. I do, therefore,
hope, tint you will use your best exertions to
discountenance this measure; as lam certain it
will lead to consequences not at present antici
pated. In this section of tho Stale we are dcci
dedly op) used to it.”
