NOMINATION FOR GOVERNOR.
A correspondent of the Athens Banner warm
ly recommends Mr, Gilmeu as a candidate for
Governor, on the part of the Union party, and the
editors of that paper approve the nomination, and
say he would receive the enthusiastic support of
that party if he would consent to run.
THEATRICAL.
We had not an opportunity of witnessing the
performance on Monday evening, in which Mr.
and Miss Cooper and Mr. Forbes played to
gether in the tragedy of Othello— Miss Cooper
- as Desdemona, Mr, Cooper as logo, and Mr,
Forbeses Othello— but understand it was very
excellent, and afforded great satisfaction —and was
attended by a large and fashionable audience, not
withstanding the severity of the weather. The,
same distinguished trio will play together again
this evening,in the tragedy of Damon and Pythias,
and a most excellent theatrical treat may conse
quently bo expected.
THE WEATHER,
On Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday
morning, was the coldest probably ever experien
ced in this place. On Saturday evening the
fe mercury was down to zero, and on Sunday morn-
I ig, two degrees below it—some say four, in other
places. The river has been nearly covered with
floating ice, and had it been low, would probably
V have been frozen over. The laguncs and ditches
around the city arc all thickly frozen over ; and
the water in pitchers and basins was frozen to a
solid mass on Friday, Saturday, A Sunday nights,
even in rooms where there was fire all night. On
Monday afternoon it moderated considerably, and
was much milder yesterday. —We understand
there has been a heavy full of snow, to the depth
of five or six inches, about 60 or 70 miles to the
North-west,; and the very high wind, during the
extreme cold, cam* from that quarter.
ME7CIIW fc PLANT’S’ BANK CASE
'Ti e Counsel for the Bank (says the Courier
of Monday,) moved for a new trial on Saturday
morning, on fourteen grounds. The Court, on
motion of the defendants, which was resisted by
the Slate, ordered the grounds to be filed, and to
operate as a supersedeas, till a decision on the
motion for a new trial. The case is t* be argued
by hi iff, on or before the first of May, and it is
expected that the opinion of the Court will be
pronounced at the Jun* Term.—The following is
the judgment of the Court, which is superseded
/ by the motion for a new trial, till that motion is
decided:
“I( is considered by the Court here, that the
liberties, privileges, and franchise*; to wit: that
of being a body politic and corporate by the name
and style of the Merchants and Planters Bank
heretofore used, enjoyed and exercised by th* de
fendant, hr seized into the hands of the Stale, and
that the said defendant do not, in any maimer
hereafter, intermeddle, use, have, enjoy, fir exor
cise any of the liberties, privileges or franchises of
a body politic or corporate; but that tha said dc
endant be absolutely forejudged and excluded
from holding, using or exercising any of the liber
ties of a body corporate or politic, and that the
State recover its costs, to be taxed, Ac.”
JUDGE CLAYTON’S WITHDRAWAL.
We earnestly entreat our Stale Rights friends
not to consider Judge Clattor’s recent letter as
his final determination. Wc arc satisfied that ill
penning it, he acted hastily, anil under an acuto
sense of injury, and injustice to his feelings, & that
ho will not hesitate to yield to the wishes of those
with whom his political interests, principles, and
feelings, are all associated. Wc would stake our
life on it. Wc know his devotion to them and their
course, and that he will always be mady, at their
call, to surrender all personal considcsßtions to
their wishes He is sensitive, very; and, consci
ous of his ardent, disinterested devotion to the
public good, cannot brook to be charged with hav
ing injured, by his political course, in relation to
nullification, the party and cause with which he is
connected. We feel warranted in saying, that
it was under such charges, and insinuations that
he stood in the way of men more likely to suc
ceed, that he wrote the letter lately published;
and as he will never consent to bear the odious
and unjust charge of placing Ids own interests or
wishes in the way of his principles or Ids party,
so he will never shrink from any responsibility,
any risk, or any sacrifice, which those who agree
with him may think calculated to advance the
great common cause so dear to his heart. Wc
ate satisfied that he has taken no part whatever,
in the bringing of Ids name before the public for a
nomination as candidate for Governor—nay, wc
have the Iwst reasons for the belief, that he would
have decidedly preferred from the first, so far as
his own inclinations arc concerned, to re
tire to private life. There arc those, however, of
his principles, who cannot consent to this—who,
remembering his early and ardent devotion to
their cause, and that he staked every thing in its
behalf, in its hour of greatest peril, look up to
him as its best champion, and with hearts over
flowing with the deepest gratitude for his heroic
devotion to them and their honor and safely, will
still rally round him, now, ns they did then, as
their sttongest hope, and best security. He did
not, could not, look to popular favor for his re
ward, when he first came out, openly, boldly, and
as a public man, singly, in behalf of the true doc
trines of State Rights, and their lew persecuted
followers; and can those persecuted followers,
feeling how much, how vciy much they owe to
him, now permit him to be assailed with the
charge of having injured the very cause which
owes to him, here, almost its vciy existence !
When he was their only, solitary hope—when
they all clung round him as such hope, and ap
pealed to him to he their candidate, when defeat’
overwhelming defeat was certain —did he shrink
from the responsibility I Did he no t tell them to
act prudently, wisely, and reflcctingly, with an
eye solely to the welfare of their principles and
the State, and that if they did so, he would obey
their call, be it for weal or for woe, and was ready
to sink or swim with them in such a onse I Do
they not owe the very existence of their cause to
his heroic, disinterested, patriotic devotion to
them, in that trying hour 1 And will they now
suffer him to be thrust aside, yea, driven from
the contest, with the insulting taunt that he has
been the overthrow of the party, by introducing in.
to it new principles —the principles of nullifica
tion No, they mil not And if thi* be done,
mark it! as they would have rallied around him
then, to save their principles, so will they do now |
The attack on him, is an attack on their princi
ples, and to y icid to it, would be to yield their
principles.
But, how did he cause the overthrow of the
party, by his course in relation to nullification!
and what party do they mean I If they mean
the present “ State Rights party,” do they not
know that it was formed long since he advocated
nullification, and that he himself drew up and
moved the preamble and resolutions which
it adopted, as setting forth the principles by which
it would be governed I Are not the doctrines,
and name also, of nullification, therein avowed
and were they not deliberately considered and
adopted t Why, then, this charge against him
• now I Why not make it then, and reject the
' principles, if they did not mean to sustain them ?
i Wc apprehend, however, that they moan the
' Troup party. Well, how did he overthrow that,
1 by introducing into it new principles! Will
1 any one dare declare that the principles of nulli
-1 ficalion are not those of Troup, and the Troup
. party, under anew name, given to them by their
1 opponents! And pray who did more to sustain
1 Gov. Troup, in the contest of ’25, 6, and 7, than
1 Judge Claxton ! Who does not remember his
1 indefatigable exertions at that time—his power
! ful political essays, and his speeches and private
5 letters—the avidity with which they were read
and circulated by the Troup party and the im
mense influence they had on public opinion!
r Wc were then an opponent of Gov. Troup and
1 Judge Clayton—the great light of the true faith
i had not then broken upon our mental vision—
-1 and wc well recollect, that Judge C. was looked
a upon by those with whom wc then acted, as one
B of their very ablest and most powerful opponents.
1 Will any one pretend to say that Iris present
s principles have varied at all from those he then
c advocated, except in the name, which has licen
s given to them by their opponents, as one of re
proach! And is not then his only real fault
is in the eyes of those who by their artful taunt
have aroused his pride and feeling, and driven bin
* from the field, this: that he was true, both to hi
rt principles and party, while others were not sr
I® and dared to advocate the former, under all th
*, popular odium of their new name, while other
" | abandoned them, under the fear that they and all
1 I their advocates would inevitably be sacrificed to a
r | violent and misguided popular feeling, and ren
• drill’d forever infamous,
I That party destroyed - itself, by abandoning its |
principles. Had it adhered to thorn, baldly and
| manfully, as he did, it would have sustained both
■ thorn and itself. If any one doubts this, let him
‘ glance his eye over tile State; and when he marks
that tire State Rights party is triumphal, in all
those counties wherein the Troup party adopted the |
word nullification, and defeated,in all those where
-1 in it did not, surely he can doubt it no longer
-1 Does he not find the State Rights parly in the
1 majority, wherever it has hoisted the nullification
1 banner, and in the minority, wherever it has not !
Does he not sec success, wherever the Troup men
are open mtllifiers, and dafout, wherever they are
not, whether as “ Troup Unioiijmcn,” or “State
Rights men, hut no millificrs”! Look, for in
stance. at Burke, Striven, Jefferson, Columbia,
Putnam, Greene, Troup, Ac. Ac., and compare
them with Chatham, Warren, Hancock, Jasper,
Jones, Baldwin, Ac. Ac. At least 5000 Clark
men were among the first to espouse the name;
and wherever the Troup men did so, they joined
them iteart and hand; but who** they did not,
they of course refused, as every principle of honor
dictated, to support their candidates. There were
at first, more nullification dissenters from the Clark,
party, than Union dissenters from the Troup par
ty; and if that party had nominated an open nnlli
fier at the start, and thus nobly and zealously
sustained its principles, it would inevitably Imvc
succeeded in the first contest. In those counties
where the State Rights party have openly advo
cated nullification, it lias been continually gaining
converts among the old Clark men—as in Scrivem
Columbia, Wilkes, Lincoln, Ac. Ac. —while in
those where it has not, many of those Clark men
who were nullifiers at the start, have receded to
the Union party, disgusted with the mystifica
tions, evasions, and trickeries, of the anti-nu llifi
cation State Rights men. If you expostulate with
lies* rcccdcrs, they will tell you that they do not
care a fig for either party, on principle, since neithe r
’ will sustain the true Stale Rights doctrines, hut
as their new friends are as much opposed to the
true Slate Rights doctrines as their old ones, and
much more dishonestly so, they could see no rea
son for preferring them; and so far as persona'
' feelings were concerned, they preferred their old
friends. They had no idea of quilling on* party
opposed to nullification\to support another equally
opposed to it.
j Wc could give many *thor facts of similar im
port, and probably shall do hereafter,' as our leisure
I permits ; but surely these are enough to shew any
candid man, that instead of Judge Clayton’s over
’ throwing the Troup party, it overthrew itself, by
the abandonment of its principles ; tlmt instead of
| his introducing new principles into it, the very
men did this who now make the charge upon him;
and that he has been true to his principles, under '
all the changes of names and parties, while they
have not.
A careful review of the past and present, must
i satisfy any one who makes it, that the Stale Rights ,
i party owes all its successes, throughout the State, |
1 to its advocacy of nullification —all its defeats, to :
, its opposition to or evasion of it—and that it never :
, can wholly succeed, till it harmonizes throughout, j
, in its objects and principles, and unites, freely, ful
, ly, and openly, in behalf of the principles and
i name of nullification. For our own part, wc hav c
' no disguises, and will have none. We wish to
I lie understood by all, whether friends or oppo
, nents; and having no secret or sinister motives o r
objects, will countenance none. Wc are a NUL
LIFIER, and glory in the name, not bceaase of
the name itself, but because it is identified with
| our principles, and now best expresses them. Wo
quitted the party with which we had been con
’ ncctcd for years, and which was endeared to us by '
many tics, because wc could no longer honestly I
agree with it in principle—because wc wcie in
favor of nullification, and it opposed to it. Wc 1
still remember with deep gratitude, the general for
( bcarancc manifested toward us by that party, im- j
der all the circumstances of our withdrawal from
I it all the inducements to impugn our honesty
I and consistency—and that it has never once done
either —the kind and friendly manner in which
many of its members leborsd to convince us of
what they honestly believed our errors and dclu
’ sions—and the strong personal respect and regard ,
j they havc since manifested toward us—and wc> |
j still believe that the great mass of it, apart from its
leaders (particularly those called Troup Union 1
, men) arc honest and sincere in their political
nith.but ignorant, prejudiced, blinded A deluded’
as wc were, when We acted with them. Behaving
j and remembering all this, then, and much more j
that made our parting from them one of pain and
trial, we should be a false catiffin our own cstirna
' lion, as well os theirs, if, after quitting them, be
, cause they were not nullifiers, wo could aid or
advocate any others who are not nullifiers. Wo
4 bear personal enmity to no one—personally, all
men arc alike to us, according to our opinions of
s their personal worth—but wc cannot supi»rt any
J man, politically no matter what may be our per
- sonal regard for him, who docs not agree with us
! in principle. Is there any man who would ask
j us to do so !We trust not Is there any one,
!i who, if wc did so, would value us in any other
- light titan as a party tool, or trust us one inch f.ir
d titer than he could arc us I He would be a fool
e if he did.
s. Satisfied, then, as wo arc, that it is the inten-
It tion of tile anti-nullifiers of the State Rights
n party to pres* upon the Convention the nominn
n tion of an anli-nullifier, as a candidate for Gover
-- nor, and that they havc labored to proscribe a
It nullifier, and drive him from the contest, we foci I
ts it our duty to say, despising, as wc do all conccal
m meats, that wc cannot support any nominee, no
,i, matter what may be his personal worth, or our
io, personal respect for him, who is not an open and
be avowed advocate of our principles. Wc mean
•rs no dictation— wc would scorn to two it, as much
■ ns to submit to it—but, a* we would not ask oth
ers to yield their principles to us, to we cannot
yield ours to any othars.
| Let those who agree with us in this matter, |
| look to it at otico, or they will again bo thrust be
tween two stools.

THEATRICAL.
.Mr. Editor :—I was very ngwcably disappoint
ed on Monday evening, "when I entered tho Thea
tre, to find so full and fashionable a bouse; hut
who could resist the temptation, when such a
combination of talent was offered! If overtoil
Theatre deserved patronage, it is now; as it is
in nil probability, tha last time tb* citizens of
Augusta will havc tho gratification of witnessing
the performance of sueh an actor a* Mr. Cohpeii.
“Wo ne’er shall look upon his like again.” His
la go was well worthy of Iris yonngdays, and was
certainly the best performance of the part, I evar
witnessed. Miss Cooper's Desdemona also, was
very excellent. Mr, Forbes’ personation of the
Afable Jlfoor, won new laurels for that gentleman
Who is, deservedly, n groat Mvorito with tho cili-
I
zens of Augusta; and I hope, should he tike a
nother Benefit before he leaves us, wc will
have full proof of their esteem for him. Mr*.
Lyons’ Emilia was well pleyed. She is a very
fine actress. I would advise th* Managers to cast
tho pieces according to the strength of the Com
pany. The idea of Mr. Carter |ierforming the
part of Jlrahantio, is ridiculous. He should ne.
ver attempt to speak one line of blank verse.
Let him play comicold men. Mr.Hariit should
have played Jtrahantio, and Mr. Lyons, Cassis-
Mr. Carter could have epoken Oratiano. He
played very well in tho farce. DAMON.

Tho table* exhibit an increased import of.
Cotton into the kingdom 0f78,742 bales from the
! United States, 3389 from tho West Indies, Ar,
and 3384 from tho Mediterranean—wltn a de
crease from the Brnzilsof 59647, mid from the
East Indies of 5000, showing an aggregate in
crease in the total supply this year, of 20,819 halos
as compared with that of 1833.
It will also ho seen Unit our present stock is
; 29,584 bales less than at the close of last year, lin
ing 185,563 halos against 215,137 at that period.
The Export has been 86,800 bales, against 67,
800 last year, being an increase of 19,001) hales.
Tho outgoings for consumption amount to 893,-
808 bales, against 892,397 in 1833, making an
increase of only 1511 hales; it is proper, howev
er, to remark, that in December, 1833 dealers and
consumers took from this port alone 105,000
halos, but this month they hove only taken 30,-
000 notwithstanding the monthly consumption is
70,000 bales; and it is believed they now hold
upwards of 40,000 halos less than at’ the end of!
last year.
The Import ofSoa Islands into tho kingdom
during tha year just ended, amounts to 22,200
bags, against 33,000 in 1833. This short sup
ply, with tho deficiency in the Import from Brazil
and Egypt, has caused a great reduction in the
Stock* of all long stapled Cottoii, as well as a
proportionate advance in prices. Son Islands,
being now 19u. a 30d. against 1 Id. a 2ld.
on tho 31st December, 1833, but tho advanced
price has materially diminished tho consump
tion.
Throughout the year there has been in demand,
which has rnabbsl Spinners and Manufacturers to
dispose of their Yarn* *g)d Goods us fast as pro
duced, also to increase their prices more rapidly
than lire advance on the Raw Material; conse
quently their business lias been, and still contin
ues to be extremely profitable.
Th* power of production has been materially
increased during the last twelve months, and it is
obvious that, at no former period have there licco
greater preparations, (by the building of Mills ami
erecting of Machinery) to extend the consumption,
titan are now in progress.
With respect to supplies, wo arc led to expect
some increase of Import from the United blates
tin: ensuing year, but a considerable iiietpase (pro
bably 60,000 bales or more from Brazil A Egypt,
and about the same from the East and West In
dies as the present year.
This has been a year remarkable for tho full
and uninterrupted employment of the industry
of the eountry. The laboring classes Imvr been
contented, ami great confidence has fiervudod all
e)u*Bes in their operations until within the lad
few weeks, When a change in the Administration,
totally unlouked for, took place, milled to which
wo are now ott tho eve of a General Election ;
yet although the people generally condiler that
iltese political changes cannot permanently inter
fere with our commercial prosperity, it must be
admitted that they have a temporary effect nu
commercial operations, which requires time to
remedy. mol at present the ;Ad die mind is eonsi
dcrebly excited, and confidence impaired.
