GLOBE HOTEL.
The following well-deserved tribute to the mer
its of this excellent Hotel, is extracted from a
highly interesting article in the last No. of the
“Southern Literary Journal entitled “Remini
scences of a tour to the South West,” from the
pen of its accomplished editor :
“We wore set down at “ the Globe,” a very
respectable house in Augusta, where every at
tention is paid to the comfort of travellers. Why
it is called “ the Globe,” we were not informed,
but suppose byway of invitation to the whole
world, i. e. to all strangers, to walk in and par
take of the good cheer that is offered. Perhaps
it so denominated from the magnitude of the
building, it being spacious enough to accommo
date a large number of persons, and constituting,
when contrasted with the dwellings of private
citizens, a sort of microcosm. Again, k may re
ceive its name from the custom that prevails in it
of having its table daily spread with all the luxu
ries and delicacies that can be procured from the
four quarters of the globe.
We were ushered into the gentlemen’s pailour,
a commodious room on the second floor, looking
into the street. An excellent fire was blazing
upon the hearth, towards which we drew chairs
and warmed our chilled limbs—a place being
promptly made for us by the social circle who
were sitting around it, and who were engaged, at
the time, in an animated debate. In the centre
of the room stood a table, upon which were piled
many newspapers and magazines, containing re
cent intelligence from the different parts of the
earth—an additional reason for calling the house
“ the Globe.” We confess wo had no particular
predilection for any one hotel in Augusta more
than another. The “ Eagle and Phoenix” had a
poetical title and a deserved reputation. “Wash
ington Hall”—a more retired house—we knew to
be excellent—indeed its hostess was an old and
esteemed acquaintance. “ The Planters” was
not a whit behind them in either respect. But
there was something peculiarly attractive to us in
the name of “ the Globe.” We had gone abroad
with the view of seeing the world and studying
human nature, & where could we see the one, and
study the other, more advantageously than in
“ I' l6 Globed” Wo were anxious to put to the
test Dr, Johnson’s theory of independence, and
where could wo feel more at home—where more
at our case, less fettered by circumstances, more
on an equality with the rest of our race, than in
“the Globed” “The Globe”—“ the Globe—a
suitable name for a great establishment—open at
all hours to the public—supported by public pa
tronage—where the inhabitants of the town and
countrv come in and go out at pleasure, and the
world within may hear of every tiling that is go
ing forward in the world without, in a short space
of time.”
‘The Globe’ richly merits all that is here so
flatteringly said of it. It is undoubtedly one of
the very best Hotels in the Southern country,
and is conducted in a manner highly creditable to
its worthy and indefatigable proprietor and to the
city—as well as satisfactory to its visiters, as the
very large and highly respectable patronage it
enjoys fully testifies. Though “open at all hours
to the public,” no house of the kind can keep
better hours, or better order ; and it affords us
pleasure to stale, that wc have seen its uniformly
kind and attentive host, exhibit in it a firm and
independent regard for Temperance, which might
well command the respect, as it deserves the imi
tation, of many of the more wordy and ostenta
tious advocates of that excellent virtue.
SOUTHERN LITERARY JOURST4L,
The Juno No. of this periodical is before us;
end if, afler.reading its remarks on “ The Puffing
System'’ wo might dare to express a favorable
opinion of such a work, at the risk of being sus
pected, at least, of some of the mean and paltry
motives it ascribes to such opinions, we should
say it is a valuable and interesting No., and one
of the best that has appeared-—one of the most
interesting at least, if not most scientific and in
structive. The excellent paper, however, from
the pen of Dr. Dickson, on the “Influence of
< Mechanical occupations on Health,” is one of
the most valuable, instructive, and useful, that
has lately appeared in it, or any other similar
work, and is eminently deserving the attention
»f all, in our southern climate, hut particularly
those exposed to the boat of the sun, who arc de-
Tiioiis of preserving and promoting the most de
sirable of all human blessings. “The Drunk
aril's Death-lied ” is an interesting article, and
contains an excellent and instructive moral.—
‘•Spirit oj Emigration ” is a bold, independent,
and patriotic-production, but somewhat too diffuse,
sometimes rather too harsh, and generally not
sufficiently practical; and appealing too little to
the interest of the emigrant,as injuriously affected
try that spiiit, to effect, materially, its desired ~'dj
ect. “Reminiscences of a Tour tq t/ie South
Rest, and Ihc Idle nre ( , u n e pleas
ant, amusing and written; and the other
prose continued from previous Nos. op
pear l 0 bo good,but not having read the preceding
parts, wc have merely glanced at them. The
verse, too, is generally good, particularly the
'Southern passages and pictures.”
Our sincere regard for the respected and in
telligent editor, and anxious desire for the suc
cess of his valuable work, so immediately con
nected as it is with the literary character and
general welfare of the South, cause us to regret,
exceedingly, to sec in it, and from his pen, an
article so illiberal and injudicious, inconsistent
and unjust, as that on “The Puffing System ;”
which, however innocent of any sinister motive—
and our personal respect for him will not allow
us to doubt that it is wholly so—may subject him
at least to the suspicion of such, quite as unwor
thy and discreditable as those he has so freely (
and even indiscriminately, attributed to others.
We dissent even from Iris premises, in their in
discriminate sense; and as we have scon the
article briefly, and perhaps thoughtlessly, approv
cd, we shall endeavor to show their weakness, as
well as impolicy, and often injustice, as early as
■a leisure moment will allow. That what he calls
'“The Puffing System, is liable, like every thing
‘else, to great abuses, there can bo no doubt; and
that the practices he so severely denounces, may
ho sometimes vicious and injurious, we will not
deny—but not always, as we design hereafter to
show —nay, often, even desirable, useful, instruc
tive, However correct and useful his censures
might have been under proper discrimination and
application, as they are, we cannot but think
them most injudicious, at least —and, to say
nothing of their injurious tendency, wherever
they have influence, would beg the editor to rea l
them over again, and ask himself again and
again, as he does so, Cut bono?
“But, finally,” among “the infinite variety of
ways in which Journals puff themselves into no
tice,” wc would beg leave to ask, whether, if he
be right in some of his remarks, that which he
has himself adopted, in his table of contents, in
his addition to the title of the third article, be not
as contemptible and censurable as any!—and if
“the practice of indiscriminate fault-finding, is
even more despicable” than “ indiscriminate
praise,” whether he has not plainly fallen into the
greater error of the two I

Cen. Clinch. —We are informed from more
than one source, that Gen. Clinch is unwilling
to assumo the command in Florida, his motive in
visiting 1- londa at this time being to remove his
negioos liom the Territory.— Sav, Georgian,
With regard to the report of 2000 Creek In
dians endeavoring to make their way to Florida,
thro Georgia, the Columbus Herald observes ;
“Wo have only room to say that the above is
false in every particular. Twelve whites were
killed in an engagement with a party of two or
three hundred Indians, who immediately return
ed to Alabama, 1-cvv, it any Indians, certainly
no party of them have made their way to Flori
da, nor can they now possible do so.”
Mire Evidence. —Gen. Clinch in a letter da
ted St. Mary’s, Ga. May 30, says “I have no time
to enter into a detailed account of the operations
of the right wing of the army on its return march
from Tampa.—All was done by that wing, which
could have been done, under the circumstances in
which it was placed whilst operating on the
Withlacoocliee, and when I took up Maj. Coo
per’s Battalion, I had not the most distant idea
that Maj. MeLemore had left any part of his
command on that river.” —Here is confirmation
strong as holy writ.—Col. Read stands acquitted
and Gen. Scott convicted of a foal calumny.—
Tallahassee Floridian.
Gratifying Intelligence. —Wc learn from
Washington, in anticipation of the regular con
veyance, that Gen. Scott is permitted to retire to
New York, and that ho is directed to turn over
the command of the Army in Floiida to Genl.
Clinch. The resignation of this officer had not
been accepted by the President; and the refusal
is accompanied with such marks of confidence, ns
must ho highly gratifying to his feelings. Genl.
C li Non will bo hero in a few days and it is hoped
that our fellow citizens will adopt measures to
give him a hearty reception, as a mark of the high
respect and confidence that is reposed in him.—

Rill regulating the Deposiles. —The Bill yes
terday finally passed the Senate by nearly the
same vote as that on its engrossment —38 to G.
Two members were absent who voted for the en
grossment. Had they been in the Senate cham
ber, the vote would have been as on the engross
ment—4o to C, A very interesting debate took
place on its final passage, in which Messrs.
Wiight, Calhoun, Rives, Tallniadge, Benton,
and Clay took part. — U. S. Telegraph, 18 th Inst.
The hill which was ordered to a third reading
in the Senate on Thursday, and w as debated yes
terday, and at a late hour passed by a maj irity so
great as to leave no doubt that it will also piss
the House of Representatives, is one of an im
portance and an interest w hich commend it to the
attention of our readers in no oidinary degree.
Ii combines the principle of regulating the depo
sites of the public money, and in sonic degree
providing for its safe keeping, and that of depo
sites (or distributing) to the several Slates what
ever surplus of public money may ho on hand
on the first day of January next, beyond the sum
of five millions of dollars. It docs not, however,
propose any interference with the Land bill
which had previously passed the Senate; and
should that bill pass, this new hill, were it also to
pass, would not, so far as regards the depositing
of the surplus ol the public money, take effect
until the requisitions of the Land bill shall have
been satisfied.— laid., I S.'A Inst,

EIGHTH VOLUME
d or tux
Knickerbocker Magazine.
f July Numbejr of the Knickerbocker,
it- UR New York Monthly Magazine,
will commence a new volume, and form the
twenty eighth number issued under its present
proprietorship and supervision.. In the brief Ad
vertisement by which the new bcrics was intro
~ ducod to the public, it was observed, that no ex*
u ‘‘Bion nor expense would be spared to render the
. Magazine honorable to American Periodical Lit*
’ oraiure, and acceptable to the public, whose pat
ronage was only so far solicited, as it should
, seem to be deserved—that the assistance of some
of the ablest pens in the country had been secur
ed in behalf of the work, and that, ns it was
thereafter to depend rather upon its merits, than
upon frequent announcements of the future ex
cellence to which it was to attain, it was submit
ted to its readers, with the confident hope that it
would prove deserving of the public favor. This
hope has not been disappointed. Upward of
twf) thousand highly favorable notices of the
work have appeared, at intervals, in the different
j journals of the United States, including those of
the first class in every section of the country;
and that silent but convincing sign, a steady in
crease of patronage, has borne still stronger tes
timony, that the literary labor* presented to the
. public through the medium of this periodical have
not been undervalued. While, therefore, the
publishers acknowledge with gratitude the kind
ness with which their exertions have boon receiv
f ed, they would t ike this occasion to repent, that
their efforts will ho untiring, without regard to
. labor or expense, to cater acceptably for the vari
ous literary appetites of a wide national commu
> nit y*.
It is a fact worthy of mention, that since this
Magazine passed into the hands, and under the
direction of its present proprietors and editors,
not a dissenting voice has been heard from the
entire American press, in regard to its general
merits. It may ho observed farther, that of near
ly f iv * hundred specimen numbers which have
been sent to individuals who desired to judge of
the character of the work from personal exami
nation, previous to subscribing, there has not
been one which did not result in the subsequent
subscription of the person so sanding. The
Magazine is now bo firmly established in tho pub
lic favor as to be beyond the reach of any contin
gency which can alfcet its permanence : yet in
creased encouragement would still enable the
publishers to add to the enjoyment of their rea
ders. In an equal ratio with tho enhancement
of their ability, through the liability of tho pub
lic, will bo their effective labors; and if each
subscriber to the work, who ha* derived ploasuio
from its perusal, would send one or more names,
(a not dilHculi task, it is confidently believed,)
the publishers can safely promise that no poriodi
cal, foreign or domestic, will be permitted to ex
ceed in variety and interest (lie Knickerbocker
Magazine. A* the present proprietors can with
truth affirm that they have hitherto left no pledge
unfulfilled, it i* hoped that this declaration will
not bo considered as n ‘promi.se made to tho car,’
only to bo ‘biokoii to the hope.’
i ho subjoined is a brief plan of the work:
Its Original Papers w’dl bo so varied ns to
form a combination of the Useful with the En
tertain! ng and Agree a ri.k. These will em
brace the departments of Useful Science, Es
says, Tales, and Poetry, which may deserve
the name.
The Literary Notices will comprise sum
mary and candid icvicws of new works, with
such extracts, when practicable, us may bo ncces-
Kary to evince the justice of tho accompanying
criticisms.
The Editors* Table will bo devoted to the
familiar discussion of local and general matters—
including The Drama, The Fine Arts. &c.
Tho Publishers design to make the Magazine
agreeable to the old and the young—to tho sedate
and tho gay—to all parties in politics—(u sub
ject from which, being non-partiznns, they stand
all aloof,) —to mingle tho valuable with the
amusing—and to pursue, the tenor of their way,
w, th tho entertainment of cordial feelings toward
all contemporaries. The work will contain be
tween kiduty and ninety large pages of a
dose and beautiful type per month—making two
volumes, of upward of u thousand pages, at the
end ol the year. And tho proprietors believe
limy may safely assert, that us regards beauty of
execution, the Knickkrmockek Magazine will
not sutler in comparison with any similar publi
cation, wherever issued. It may not ho amiss to
mention here, that in edition to many contribu
tors whose me. its arc 1 neon I cat able, and whose
talents sire honorable to the country, this Maga
zine will be found before the close of the volume
to have contained articles from The pens of
