the western mail. /
The information contained in the f»J^* v^n o
letters, received by the Post Master o£^* B c *D r »
(and which wo copy from the
nt yesterday,) will no doubt be with
pleasure by nil who have experienced the delay
which has attended the receipt of news froth the
West, since the commencement of hostilities In
the Creek- Nation. We sincerely hope that no
thing will again occur to obstruct the transporta*
lion of thisimpoitant mail, on the proper route:
Columbus, (Ga.) July 18th, 1833.
Dear Sir:—You can, after the receipt of this,
forward all the mails'for the west on this route, as
usual. The road between Columbus and Tus
kegee, which had been seriously injured by the
Indians, has been repaired so us to admit the
passage of the stages. Two military posts have
been established on the mail route, and in addi
tion to the regular troops at these posts, mounted
Escorts ur6 furnished to accompany the mail thro’
the Nation. Individuals desirous of passing to
•the west, can travel the Mail route with perfect
safety, either in the stages, or in private convey
ances, as the road is literally lined with trodps.
Yours, &c.
JAMES VAN NESS, P. M.
Post Master, Augusta, Geo.
In addition to the above, the following was re
ceived by our Post Master last evening, from Mr.
tleorge Plitt, the Agent of the Post Cilice De
partment, who has been unremitting in his exer
tions to keep open the communication wit the
west, since the commencement of the Creek dis
turbance?.
. Colum nvs, July 10.
Last evening t canic to this place from Mont
gomery, via Tuskegee, bringing with me the mail
in a wagon. The road is nd\v perfectly safe,
and in a few days the contractors will be ready to
run the mail through the nation both ways. You
will therefore he pleased to forward the great
Southern mail upon this instead of the Florida
toutc. I shall remain here until the route is put
in full operation under the new schedule.
KNICKERBOCKER FOR JULY.
We feel great pleasure (says the New York
Courier & Enquirer,) in occasionally presenting
this periodical to the attention and patronage of
the public; for we are of opinion that it is con
stantly putting forth new-ami additional claims to
entitle it to the consideration of every friend to
American Literature.
The present number justifies this opinion. The
contents arc of great variety ; and it will be an
additional recommendation to ilia reader, that it
contains one hundred and twenty-four pages of
original mutter, which in general will be found
either instructive or amusing. Such a puhliea
. tion comes recommended by its quantity ns well i
as qualify. We were most especially struck ■
with an article constituting the first number of
a series of strictures on American Society, It
has but one fault—that of being 100 short; and
we earnestly hope the writer will continue the
subject. Society, as it exists in the United Slates
is at war with oar political in dilutions, as well
as domestic economy. It is not the natural re
sult of circumstances, arising out of our peculiar
situation, but the product ot a habit of second
hand imitation. It is a burlesque, or rather, r.
caricature df liunlpcnn distinctions ; it is neither
fish, flesh, nor fowl—but a contused mass of in
congruities that would he utterly ridiculous, were
not its consequences so mischievous.
We notice the Editors of the Knickerbocker i
complain of certain piracies committed on their
columns by sonic of the British periodicals. We
arc glad losco such indications of a desire to ben
efit by our effusions. What is not thought worth
having, people seldom steal; and this species of
cabbaging, is on the whole, highly complimenta
ry, Besides, we have borrowed, and still borrow
so much of them, that we should not cry out if
they return the compliment. But we think they”
should give credit to the original owner, if only
to show their magnanimity ; although it must be
confessed, that little regard to literary properly
is now shown by certain periodicals, and other
works, particularly juvenile hooks, which are
made up of selections without acknowledgment,
and AS full of stolen goods as a pawn brokers’
shop. The most notorious of these variels is one
Peter Parley, who is as great a thief as Carus,
and has committed as many robberies on authors,
as frauds on the public. Surely, if these barren
cattle ill fatten on the rich fields of others, the
best they can do is to give the name of the
owners, if they wish to avoid the sin of ingrati
tude.
We are pleased to hear that the patronage of
the Knickerbocker is steadily increasing, and that
it will continue to increase is beyond a doubt,
provided the Editors persevere in their efforts to
make it every day more, worthy of the literature
of their country. Rome was not built in a day »
and the reputation, which, like the mushroom,
springs to maturity in one night, perishes like it,
before the sun goes down. Patience and perse
verance are the main pillars ol the temple of
Fame.”

two of them were found indulging their curiosity,
i- iy looking into the stocknkc from a neighboring

• brought to bear upon the tree—but the Indian's
were no longer there. A party was sent out in
pursuit ot them, but ns usual, returned without
finding them. Capt. Jones thinks there is a large

A Now Colton Factory.
W e have the pleasure of stating, that a Cotton
b actory, with 500 spindles, has been erected in
this town, by Charles P, M dlett. Esq. and is now
in full operation. The first woik upon this es
: tablishnieiit was commenced about eight months
* j ago, and the rapidity with which it has been com
-1 plelcd, not less than the practical character of the
. j owner, leaves ilo doubt of its complete success.
j I he machinery is all new, of the latest improve*
j went, and highest fiiiidi. The building is calcu
lated lor 1000 spindles, and it is the intention of
the proprietor to procure the additional 500 as
soon as possible.
We hope that tin’s is only the first of many
I such establishments here ; and when we tal.c into
consideration the immense water power in this
• neighborhood, the cheapness of labor and ofliv
i ing, the convenience of a inaikct both for the raw |
, material and for the yarn ; and, not least, the fact I
that all such establishments are in a highly llour-!
ishing stale throughout the country, we cannot!
but hope that our citizens will not much longer re- j
main indifferent to this important subject.—Fay

SLAVE CASE.
In Hie District Court of the United Slates for
the Western District of Pennsylvania, held at
Pittsburgh before Judge luwin, 'two eases of jn
. lerest have lately been decided :
- Baylor et nl.us. Elijah Heath J. N. Bleed man,
Esq. and A. Pcarsoll—and Stephen Dulgarn vs.
the same defendants. The plaintiffs were citizen*
ol \ irginin, and the defendants of Pennsylvania.
The plaintiffs were owners of two negro slaves,
who absconded and came to Venango county, in
this State, where they wcie arrested, and, alter a
judicial investigation, handed over to their own
ers. On their way home through Brookvillc, Jes
, ferson county, on the evening of Sunday, the 14th
September, 1835, the negroes wore placed in the
jail <or the night. A large and excited crowd col
lected, t lie defendants being among them, and lea
ders of the multitude.
I A singular contrivance for their liberation was
j devised. A sham prosecution against the mai
lers for travelling on Sunday was held before
j Steedman, who is a justice of the peace. Brady
for the prosecution, and Prime for the defendants,
were to make their speeches as long as possible,
so as to afford the slaves time to escape beyond
the reach of their owners. The whole contri
vance seeiVts to have been actually carried into
effect, and the negroes, although pursued by their
masters for several days, were never retaken.
Verdict tor the plan tiffs in both eases. Damages
in the first, S6OO ; in the second, SB4O. Motions
for new trials were refused by theUoiiit.

The Delegates In the Knoxville Convention,
from the Stale of Georgia, Upon mature delibera
tion, believe it to be of the highest importance to
the State of Georgia, that a Convention should
beheld al Macon, on the first Monday of Novem
ber next, for the purpose of consulliiir upon the
expediency and practicability of building a Rail
Road from some point on the Tennessee River
below t!u? Suck, through Georgia, to some point
on the Atlantic. It is, therefore, earnestly desired
r that every county in the State should send dulc
. gates to this Convention, equal at least’ to the
number of their Representatives in the Legisla
ture. And, in the mean lime, it is hoped and
desired that all the information touching this irp
portant entorprize, Ire collected and communicated

Mr. Madison.— Wo have heard of but a few
particulars of the closing scene. Though reduced

-1 uod unimpaired until within a few hours of his
* decease. We have a seen letter, which he dicla
, ted, signed and franked, on Monday evening the
27th, some 12 or 15 hours before his death. L
has all the marks of his stylo, modesty and bene
volence. This signature is somewhat confused
p and blotted, though legible—indicating a hand
tremulous from debility. It is certainly the very
1 laet time he had a pen in his band.
, We understand that he left, ready for the prom,
, to which it will he forthwith given, a’ Report of
the p weeding* of the Convention which formed
the Federal Constitution, taken at the time, with
; notes, &c., and a compendious history of the
events which led to the call of that Convention.
The work will make two large octavo volumes
and be published simultaneously in this country
and in England. It is hazarding little to say that
f no work of greater interest and importance ever
issued from the American press. His correspon
dence and other writings will ba published from
time to lime, and will constitute amass of the
most valuable political Literature in the language.

Go where we will among our house-keeping

t servants, and not unfrequorilly of the impossibili
ty of gelling help at all. But if we take a stroll
through particular sections of the city or through
tire alleys and lanes in almost any section at any
:- hour in the twenty-four, we shall see hundreds,
and almost thousands of blacks of all sizes and
ages, idling away their time, doing nothing and
} ’ looking as miserable as filth and idleness might he
expected to make them. Were the young blacks
g put out, and kept at work, as they ought to be,

they might supply us with the best of servants

arc constantly annoying us (especially in the

for export—indeed, the only sale we
bear of has been of 400 bills, Oallego at $8 50
for South America.
Af,lasses is doing well, prices fully supported,
