1011 THE AUGUSTA I'HHOXJCLE.
Messrs. Kuitohs :—Permit me, through your
columns, to make a few remarks with regard to
the circumstances that have brought me in con
tact with the editor ofthe Philadelphia Saturday
Evening Post. He intends his remarks to be
father of a shrewd and cutting nature, especially
lo those who arc in arrears with his subscription
payments. I would suppose, if he had been as
particular in sustaining the good feelings of the
South, as he has been to wound them, it would
have suited his self-thought popularity much
better. But the gentleman has ahead}' shown,
what he secretly professes to be, and the time
would be idly spent, that is given lo trace his
many and unpardonable sins. As for myself,
I have but a weak apology to oiler, for non-pay
ment, to fills galled conscience ; but, should he
be uneasy, he has only to send on his bill to his
agent, and receive the money, should I not be
quite soon enough in discharging it beforehand.
Perhaps I should, as usual, have discharged the
payments due, at the end of each year, had he
octed right heretofore. Before rrry negligence to
demands, I have paid him so soon as 1 found the
yearly numbers would be filled, until the time
that he now claims, which I should have dis.
charged before now, had he not some months af
terwards sent me a bill for which I already had
paid; since then I have stopped being so punctu
al, and have left the collections to be received by
his proper agent ; and, as I have been a subscriber
to his works for something like six years, I think
he has but little chance to grumble at my being
only six dollars in arrears, and that before the sub
scription is completed. But I suppose he is like
« certain man in ancient time, he has got fat off
the labor of the South, and he now kicks; but he
will find it pretty hard kicking against the feel
ings of those he now strikes against, for wo all
know him.
In noticing the remarks of this man, whilst
'defending the subject of “ the Runaway,” I am
brought to the conclusion, that ho of course
holds with the Abolitionists, his private “ views”
lo the contrary notwithstanding ; as he has not
for many years interfered in his paper, having re
solved to exclude articles of a controversial char
■actcr from its columns.
It is true, the time exhausted, cither in answer
ing or paying attention to what he can say a
■gainst the awakened South, would be illspent;
but as regards ourselves, who breathe the free
and healing air of a Southern clime, it is necessa
ry that something should be done; we will
therefore leave him where he is, as he now de
sires to reap a rich harvest of glory built upon
our downfall, and turn our attention towards the
relations of home.
This over-righteous man has been for years se
cretly sowing tiro seeds of dissention in our land,
by his many smooth talcs and romances, but not
until now has ho been so barefaced; and when he
was attacked, he imputed it to a mere humorous
piece that tickled his sensibilities. (Help us
from stJch smooth-faced ignorance as this.) He
has gone on by degrees, until he thinks he has a
right to say whatever may please him, with re
gard to the South. The ground he has gained,
and those of his Coadjutors, lime alone must tell.
Should they not he stopped in their mad career,
the heart of the patriot must bleed, and have cause
to weep.
It is a matter that should concern all, and how
ever humble that individual may be, in worldly
prosperity or wisdom, it is Iris duly when he sees
danger, to give the alarm. Though our private
difficulties may not claim a friend, yet the South,
the suffering South, should bo up and keep a
strict watch, for the enemy is near at band, if not
already amongst us, and when lire time shall
arrive to act, their vengeance will bo let loose up
on lire innocent, and the helpless. These then
are considerations which the people of tbe South
should look to.
If we arc men, if we are free, then let us speak
and de that which the laws of God and man re
quire of us. Freedom scarcely lives in name,
when they that claim it arc afraid “ to defend it.”
We, indeed, arc a sorry class of freemen, when
demagogues and beings that the slave even would
shun, shall dictate to us, and scalier through our
envied land such vile matter as has been seen. Tiro
Genius ofLibcrty well may weep over Us, when
vve suffer this to be done. Then lot us guard that
sacred treasure, deposited by our forefathers, and
scaled with their blood, and when the holy urn
shall be touched, let us strike.
There is another consideration of which ail arc
trot aware, and which is highly important to the
growing prosperity of the South. It is well known
that we have too long neglected the literature of
our section of country, and have been the suppor
ters of those who now would reward us with ru
in. How many of our slumbering hearts would
he awakened, could they receive that attention,
which is extended to those that have no interest
in our welfare. They want but the proper sup
port, to make them more competent than those
that claim the offered preference. Many of onr
noblest minds are forced to abandon the paths of
literature, and seek" an employment that accords
not with their noble and towering minds. And
why is this 1 Do they lack energy to can y them
through, or does fortune cast her frowns upon
them! No. They simply want patronage. The
friends that should support the labor ol our own
countrymen, abandon them, and instead of look
ing “to home,” for beauty and grandeur—made
still more beautiful from the toils of science and of
art—they turn elsewhere, and often prefer the
talcs and romances of fiction, to those soul-checr
ing ones es reality, that should be our fireside
companions. But these things that come from
afar are preferred ; and however great the progress
which our “ home productions" have made in the
path to greatness, they arc laid aside for those
that arc considered superior, merely because they
arc bought from a distance. Surely the South is
as well adapted for Literature, as the North. Her
sunny shores, her smiling fields, and vine clad
hills, are as inviting to the poet, and the scholar,
as the lands farther North. Her very air is con
genial, to the taste of those who love to dwell upori
nature’s works,. Then, if our country would shew
themselves to boa patriotic and wisdom-loving
people, soon would every cottage resound with
the song of prosperity. Let us revive those works
that have fallen, and sustain those that arc still in
existence, and then we ahall very, soon bo free
from those contaminating works that now flood
our country, and bring with them dissention.
Where does pure and warm friendship dwell,
if it does not exist in the bosom of the Southerner!
Where arc the arts and sciences more sought
after than at the South 1 (save in respect to the
cultivators at homo) And where does liberty
spread her peaceful wings more freely than in the
land of the slandered South ? But with all these
blessings, the foul and fiendish demons of aboli
tion, now turn their darkened eyes and envying
I'carts, towards this happy and towering land.
But enough has already been said ; we should now
1 act, and not sutler ourselves to be led along, with
■ halters afound our necks, and our leaders, too, »t
1 a distance, smiling at our weakness. If, then,
we are freemen, lei us be so; but if we desire to
be miserable slaves and dupes, let us then forget
that we are citizens of a noble republic.

the brave sons of the West may be cxcpctcd
here in all by the 20lh of this month. A number
of officers have already arrived, and preparations
1 are being made tor their reception. The cam

to subjection. From our knowledge of the abili

will bo sufficient to go anil return. We shall
have all the European news regularly every 10

REMARKS.
COTTON.—But a very small quantity has
come to market which may bo considered prime ;
the principal quantity received is of but middling
quality, and commands from the wagon, 16 a 17
cents—choice would sell for 174 to 18. We
may soon expect to see a larger supply, when
our purchasers will be inclined to come forward,
and an active business will be done.
GROCERIES.—Large supplies of every de-'
scr;iption of Groceries have already boon received
by our merchants, arid additions are daily arriving.
As will be seen by our Prices Current, there has
been an advance in tire price of a number of ar
ticles therein enumerated, and it is supposed by
some, that prices generally will still he higher.

Liverpool Market, Aug. 8.
Onr last circular would give you the course of
the Cotton market up to the 3d inst., it continued
in the sarm? heavy state until to-day, more parti
cularly for the low and middling qualities, which
have been pressed on the market in quantity be
yond the demand, and the business in them the
last few days has consequently been mostly at a
further reduction of J per lb., while the good and
fine qualities have continued in fair request at
steady rates. We have to-day, however, had
more demand for all descriptions, and about 5000
bales have sold at prices a shade better than could
have been realized for some days past, though the
demand which has been altogether from dealers
and consumers, continues to be freely met. The
sales for the week ending sth inst., amounted to
19,470 bales of which 2800 were Upland, at 7$
a 11 J, with 200 at 11 j, G7BO Orleans at 7} a 13,
1250 Alabama and Mobile at 8 a 11 A, with 30 at
71, per lb. The business on Saturday, the slh
inst., was about 3000 bales, and lo day about 5000
bales have been sold, os above stated. The im
port in the past week was about 30,0.00 bales,
nearly all from the United States. The slock
of Cotton in this port is estimated at about 298,*
000 bales, against 253,000 at same period last
year; the stock of American is' about 217,000, be
ing an increase of 8000 bales.

the Cotton market to-day, the sales being 5000

inquiry throughout the week both from the trade
and for export, and for the belter kind* of Ameri

1 - TO THE ~
, People of Columbia County.
AS a report lias been circulated in this coun
ty, by malicious and designing persons, for
the purpose of injuring my character as a Prac
titioner in Medicine, and thereby preventing the
good people of this vicinity, especially those Os
my immediate neighborhood, from favoring me
witli their palronge—said report purporting that
I killed or lost by mal-practice, twenty persons
or a whole family, in a very short time, on the
plantation of Thou. Mcrriwethcr, decerned, du
ring my residence in South Carolina ; 1 feel it a
duly incumbent on myself to assure my fronds
and all whom it may concern, that such report
has no foundation whatever in truth. When I
have adduced the proof in support of my position,
I shall willingly trust the decision ofrny cause (o
un indulgent and enlightened public. The only
time in my life that my professional services were
ever rendered on the plantation above named,
was in the Hummer of 1832—and then I was
employed by Msj. Snuden Gamut, ho being
Executor of the Estate. Doct. J. S. Toole of
this county, was also in attendance with me. I
here give the cerlilicates of these gentlemen, they
will speak for themselves ;
Columbia County, Aug. 9rA, 1836.
Whereas it is reported in Columbia county,
that Doct. B, Axku killed all the family at the
plantation of Titos. Mcrriwethcr. This is to
certify that when I was called upon the planldj
lion, in the summer of 1832, there were about
thirty ver, sick, some had been the patients of
Doct. A veil, ami wero convalescent i the only
persons that died of those that he had in charge
before I came, wore Thomas and Henry. After
this lie attended with mo an a Hoy called lahatn,
who declared to us (hat he hud been poisoned by
another servant — he died. A negro woman also
died, hut she was my patient. After this Doct,
Amu visited the plantation no more. A num
ber of negroes died in the Winter and Spring be
fore, but they were attended by Doct. Teeth ant.
The practice ol Doct. An n differs from mine in
1 some things, but I cannot say it is not a good
practice, when strictly attended to.
J. S. TOOLE.
Edgefeld District, .S'. C. Aug. IQih, 1838.
Aa a report has been circulated in Columbia
county, Georgia, that Dr. B. Ayer killed a whole
family or twenty persona, on the plantation of
Thus. Mcrriwethcr, deceased, in the Summer of
1833, lliis is to certify that though eighteen or
twenty persons did die on that plantation in the
1 space of about a year, yet at least six Physicians
in all wore in attendance at sundry times, and
’ that only four died while Doct. Aren attended,
: and that 100, in company with other Physicians.
SNODEN GRIFFIN,
Executor of the Estate of Thus. Merriwclhor.
So much then, fur the truth and veracity of
. the report in question—Doct. Toole expressly
states that only two, Thomas and Henry, died (hat
1 had the charge of, before he came to the planta
tion, and even one of these, lie it distinctly un
derstood, died about a week afterwards. I now
i pronounce said report, or any oilier bearing Uie
least similarity lo it, to boa maul vile, malignant,
, slander, falsehood, mid lie, by whomsoever origi
nated or put into circulation. This I have iii
controvcrlibly proved by men of the fist respec
tability, and well known to the public aa such.
Many other reports, equally destitute of truth aa
the above, have also been circulated relative to
my losing patients in thin county.—ln conclu
sion, I remark, il is truly astonishing that men,
making pretenisona to the character of gentlemen
—especially those who have long since professed
to have “turned their backs upon the world and all
its vanities,” and even professed to become the
meek and lowly followers of Him “who taketh
away the sins of the world,” should lend their
aid to tho dissemination at falsehoods of the
hltieleesl die, with u zeal and perseverance wor
thy of a better cause—lending lo ruin the pro
essional character of a stranger in a strange land,
and one who never injured them.
