" A Subscriber” raps hs smartly, and very justly, over the knuckles, for neglecting to revise our Court Calendar, and correct the errors which have thereby grown in itfor sometime past. Wo are as much astonished ns himself, that the e er rors should have so long escaped our attention, and, thanking him for the hint, will endeavor to prevent their recurrence. FOURTH OP JULY. The Sixtieth Anniversary of our National In dependence was celebrated ill this city, on Mon day last, in the usual manner. A procession was formed in front of the United Stales Hotel, which marched to the Presbyterian Church, under the command of Jons Kuan, Esq., as Marshal of the Day, where, after the usual religious service, the Declaration of Independence was read by Judge A. 11. Lo.vr.srrir.ET, and a truly eloquent and spirit-stirring Oration was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Smith, which was listened to by a very crowded audience with attention and delight, and gave very general satisfaction. After the conclu sion of the Church exercises, the procession re turned to the United States Hotel, and there dis persed. A VILE IMPOSITION. Some contemptible, petty-larccny scoundrel, Who is a disgrace to his species, and if he had *his duo, would he cropped and branded, and whipped through his neighborhood at a cart’s 4 tail, has recently imposed on us a false marriage, purporting to be that of Mr. Claiborn Bevill, sc nr. to Miss Patience Rushing, by the Rev. A. T. Dopson —all of Scriven county : as published in our paper of the 22d ult. The letter in which we feceived the statement, purported to come from Mr. Bevill himself, and bears the semblance of authenticity ; but we learn from a gentleman of that county, that it is altogether a fabrication, and that Mr. Bevill is a married man, of a large family, and a worthy and respectable citizen, as is Mr. Dopson, also, though no clergyman. We have forwarded the letter to the parties thus shamefully .abused, in the hope that its author may he discovered by the bandwriting ; and if he should he, will take measures to punish him as his villany deserves. To guard against such impositions in future, wo will hereafter publish no marriage forwarded to us by mail, unless both the signature and handwriting of the writer are well known to us. GOV. SCHLEY AND GEN. BAILEY. As some interest is manifested by the public in the recent difference between these gentlemen, ( We publish to day the correspondence on which it is founded, that each reader may be prepared Xo judge for himself. That Gen. Bailkt has been most unfaiily and unfeelingly dealt with by Gov. Schley, we should suppose no candid and intelligent man will doubt; and indeed this is admitted by some, at least, of the Governor’s po litical friends. That it was the intention of the Governor, at first, to give him the chief command, is wo think evident, from the very words of the former ; and he was no doubt subsequently sha ken from this purpose, by party influence. The “ promptness” with which Gen. B. repaired to the point of danger, seems to have made an im • ptession on him, and in his letter, “ No. 1”, he thanks him for this, and says, plainly and une quivocally, “ 1 will avail myself of your servi ces.’’ Can any thing be clearer than this I Did he not know, then, as well as since, that Gen. Bailey was a Major-General, and that he could hot “ avail himself of his services,” except “as such” 1 Did he not know then, as well as since, that he could not “ avail himself of the services” of two Major-Generals—or, in his own words, t hat he had “ no power to place two Major Gen erals in tlie field as such” ? And, knowing this, and that Gen. Bailey must know it, and there fore understand the expression as an intimation ■ of his intention to give him the chief command, I it is plain that such was then hi* intention. : s lf Gov. Schley then designed that Gen. Bai- j ley should “ only receive the pay of the grade -of an officer which the number of troops will au f thorizo”—that is, the number since allotted him . —and that he should serve as a Major instead . j of a Major-General, (for that “ number” would j not, as now, exceed that of an ordinary Battalion) ® j —should he not then have “ made this statement, ( ■ merely to prevent any misunderstanding on the i, subject,” rather than after the misunderstanding - had occurred ? And though he might “know,” ’ *» common with all acquainted with the charac- j s ter of Gen. Bailey, “ that the matter of pay | 1 would form no part of the consideration with j > him, and that he would, if necessary, [yea wil lingly !] serve his country without fee or re | ward,” yet it would have been more honorable f and just, to place this at his own option, at first, j rather than force it upon him at last, and leave I him no oilier means of doing so voluntarily, than . at the sacrifice of his character and honor, as an i officer and a gentleman—to have made such an appeal in behalf of the country, when he “ avail , e 'i himself of his services,” rather than in his . own behalf, and in excuse for his own wanton and unfeeling aggression and proposition. That Gen. Bailey would, if necessary, serve his - country,” not only as a Major, but even as a pri vate, and not only “ without foe or reward,” but 1 with every dollar of his own ample fortune, all who know his gallant, generous,* and patriotic i character will readily believe; but to propose to him any part of this, when it was not necessary, 1 or consistent with his duty to himself, and to the office lie holds, was to trifle witli his understand . ing, and add insult to injustice and oppression. Gov. Schley says in <• No. 7”, “ as I have detailed Maj, Gen. Sanford, I cannot detail you also.” What a weak, What a childish, what a self-condemnatory expression, after first virtually detailing Gen. Bailey, and then Gen. Sanfoiid; sos every intelligent reader must admit, that the declaration “I will avail myself of your servi ces,” was tantamount to the former. Who docs not feel, at once, on reading it, that it sliou! J have been addressed, with a transposition of the names, to Gen. Sanford, rather than to Gen. Bailey 1 Had Gov. Schley said to the former, when the appointment was under consideration, “as I have detailed Maj. Gen. Bailey, I cannot detail you also,” it would have been natural, consistent, and proper; but, as it is, who can help seeing that it is utterly ridiculous I There are other expressions added to the one mentioned, strongly developing an intention to give the chief command ultimately to Gen. Bai ley—as “Brig. Gen. Lowe will act independently of you for the present, except your forces should . he thrown together,” Ac. and “ the object I have in view far the present is to defend the soil of Georgia,” &c. —hut, for own part we look upon the expression, “ I will avail myself of your ser vices,” as decisive, at least with every candid, intelligent, and impartial reader. There are those who may think it altogether incredible, that Gov. Schley should have intend ed to give the appointment to Gen. Bailey. HON. JOSEPH M. WHITE’S LETTER. We have been politely furnished with the fol lowing extract of a letter from the lion. Joseph M. White, Delegate in Congress from Florida to his constituents—June, 1830. We publish it with much pleasure, containing as it does a well mciilid tribute to the chaiactcr and services of the brave and generous Gen, Clinch; late commaii -1 dcr of the right wing of the army of Florida, in the 1 late campaign t “ Having known General Clinch for a number of years, I was perfectly satisfied, that, if an ade i quatc force was placed at his disposition, he would, in a short time, punish the enemy, amkcxecuic the treaty. He had at that time, however, only 240 : men; and, not being a favorite in certain high quarters, ho was censured for not carrying on the war with this force, and was expected to subdue such an enemy with every embarrassment in his : way. I caw myself one anonymous letter, fwrit -1 ten from Tallahassee, to the President, containing the grossest misrepresentations, to deprive him of . the command. I protested then, as 1 always have since, against his being superseded in that com mand ; it legitimately belonged to him; and I considered that the interest of the country, and the safety and protection of the people of Florida, required his continuance in it. He was superse ded without any consultation with me ; and 1 was ’ only called upon to attend at the War Department I to see the orders which had been prepared for Gen oral Scott. & to make any further suggestions that might occur from my knowledge of the country. I could not, of course, make any objection, slier it had been decided upon by the President, to a com mander whose courage and talent were so uu questionable, and whose former service in the field had shed so much lustre upon the history of our > country* I knew, too, that objections would have i been unavailing. My regret then was, that a man i so competent, in every respect, as General Clinch —with a perfect knowledge of the country—ac s cuslomed, from a long residence, to the climate, I and identified with the interest and prosperity of i the Territory, should bo superseded by any one. It is not necessary here to refer to the incidents of the campaign which followed, or to the conse '* qucncos which grew out of it. I could not quiet e ly submit, as your representative, to the injuries 1 and insults which I considered that you had to ' ceivcd. I should have noticed them in the same C way, if the best friend 1 had in the World bad been l " the author of them. e We have appropriated $2,180,000 to carry on 0 this war. Instructions were given for the vessels of war and revenue cullers to co-operato with the land forces; and, more recently, any number of e steamboats which might ho deemed useful were » authorized to be employed on the Appalachicola, •. to prevent an attack from the Creeks on one side, , when we were harassed by the Serninoles on the other. The power given to the commanding gen- I- oral was, to call for any number of troops that, in J his discretion, he might deem necessary to carry s on the war. It was anticipated that, with the foresight which Napoleon considered the chief ’ excellence of a general, new requisitions would * be made upon the Governors of the Several Slates , for new levies of draughted men, or volunteer* ’ sufficient to continue, without intermission, in l- the field; an adequate for* to protect the fron h tier, and carry on offensive operations against the 5- enemy. Finding, however, early in May, that n the militia and volunteers were all discharged, I and the regulars about going into ssmmer quar i ters, I called up, and had passed, a bill authoriz ing the President to raise ten thousand troops for , si'- and twelve months, and to organize a now . dragoons, or mounted riflemen, to be tuMilfery establishment! of the country.” J summary.

Two-thirds being required to pass it, and not a majority votiriMyen in favor of it, the hill was rejected. It is calculated that three-fourths of the law yers in the Senate arc opposed to the veto of tile President in this case, on the constitutional ques tion, although some of them, on the ground of expediency, are also opposed to the hill. The ef fect of this conflict of opinion lias been to pre clude a fair vole on the constitutional question. Could a vole have been obtained on that question alone, the veto would, wo understand, doubtless have been annulled by a vote of two-thirds of the whole body. Several voted against the bill, the conclusions of whose minds were directly against the validity of the objections made to it by the President. —A at. Intel. 28r/i ult. FROM ST. AUGUSTINE.

From Captain P. wc have obtained the follow ing information : Brev’t. Col. Julius F. Heileman, of the second Regiment of U. S. Artillery, commanding the posts on the West, of the St. John’s, died at Fort Drane on the 2711 i of Juno. Os the Garrison at that post, consisting of two hundred and (oily men, near one hundred and thirty .were sick. Out of eight Officers at the post, five were sick. At the post at. Garey's Ferry, tilde were about fifty families from the interior, all sickly, and from two to four were dying daily, from Chills and Measles. The buildings at Fort King, which had been abandoned, have been since burned by the In dians. From the Columbus Sentinel, Ist ii.st. Copy of a letter addressed to his excellency the Governor, by Captain Michael Hentz, of Baker county, which is to the following purport:— I moved out to the Fat to la tram the river, in order to get firago for my horses—l arrived there at 8 o’clock, and at 11 o'clock, I received an ex press from Capt. Odum from Cuthher', in Uan d j|ph county, that there was a large body of In dians seen near that place on the evening before. I went to Culhhert early the next morning,' and found the trail of the Indians, and about three miles distant, I found a man that they had shot by the name of Parkrnan. I continued my route to the third district of Baker county, di.Unt 75 ' miles, and got in the neighborhood of the enemy, when the Randolph company and more than half of my own left me, and I could not muster more than 21 men: irt the morning the enemy com menced tlicir inarch, and being about 300 strong, I continued in their trail without their knowing ; of it, in hopes that I would got stronger, as I had sent out for troops to j an me ; but before the sun ■ was one hour high, the Indians commenced at • tacking families, and of course there were none I to join my small force. They have killed Mr. i Wrn. Jones and Mr. Nix and wife and four chil- I dren, Mrs. Hays, Mrs. Hallowel, and Mr. Hul i lowed and daughter mortally wounded. I sent - out my small force to col cct ail the county to i come by 10 o’clock to stay the hand of death.— ; We are in a desperate situation, anil a prey to the en'my.” —" F ' II "■* —1 -1 [From the Ala con Messenger, June 30.] Wc have just learnt that Gen. Scott has de r taclred live companies, of mounted men, among 1 them, the Bib Cavalry, in pursuit of the Indians B that committed the depredations in Baker Coun • fy. on Saturday last. They are under the com mand of Colonel Alford, and have received orders to follow the enemy, night and day, and if neces sary, even to the banks of tire Withlacoochcc. 3 Our informant is of the opinion that these are . not Jim Henry’s Indians, who, he thinks, is still s in the swamps, on the Chattahoochee, entjrely circumvented by the whites, and without the f least chance of escape, A smart cannonading was heard in that dircc ’ lion on Sunday night, which continued for up wards of an hour—the result was not known. We trust, fur the sake of our fellow citizens in r the lower Counties, to say nothing of the repu > talion of our Generals, that these Indians will 1 not, also, give us the slip and secure their retreat 3 to Florida. The grand scheme and plan of the campaign as laid dawn on paper, and altemp i ted to bo put in practice was, to establish a cor , don of posts and intercept the retreat of the In dians to Florida, yet we see that 100 have escaped . the meshes that were laid for them, and made r S ooJ 'heir way. murdering, burning and robbing j deliberately as they went. , Head Quahteks, Ga.

(IT incendiaries recently assembled in Boston to meditate upon the destruction of the South. A Resolution was introduced declaring it expedient to admit Negroes into all schools and colleges, to graduate with the sons of white men ! But it seems that even the negroes themselves have bet ter sense titan seriously to contemplate such a revolting state of things as this; for a Rev. Mr. Pratt, a black man, hut a member of the Con vention, opposed tiro Resolution as highly inex pedient.” The Carolinian may ro-assurc itself for several reasons.
