THE ELECTION.
Il will lie seen by the following election returns
of this county, that Col. Dawsow, the State
Rights candidate, has received a majority deci
dedly superior to that of our Congressional Tick
et, in October last, while the Anti Van Burcn
Ticket, also, has received a considerable majority.
Col. Dawson’s majority over Gen. Samoiiii is
186, while that of our Congressional Ticket, in
October, was about 70. The majority of the
highest candidate on the While Ticket, over the
highest on the Van Burcn Ticket, is 178, and
the average majority of the White Ticket is 177.
Our Northern brethren have acted nobly in Ibis
election, and shewn, by their votes, both for Col
Dawson, and against the District Abolitionist,
Van Burcn, that they properly sympathize with
*hc people they live among, and the laud they
Jive in. We arc proud thus to acknowledge their
patriotism and Southern feeling.

WALDIE’S LITERARY OMNIBUS.
We request attention to the Prospectus of this
work, as referred to in our last, which may be
seen in our advertising columns. The specimen
No. may be seen at our office, or, wc presume, at
the Bookstore of Messrs. T. H. A I. C. Plant,
who arc Agents for the publisher, and will re
ceive subscriptions or payments, either for this, or
any of AValdie’s other highly valuable literary pe
riodicals.
GOV. M’DUFFIE’S PLANTATION.
Extract of a letter, dated
Abbeville District, S. C. Oct. 28,1830.
“ Seeing some time ago an article copied into
the “ Chronicle,” speculating on Gov. McDuf
fie's abilities and probable success as a planter, I
am induced to offer you the following remarks,
■which you arc at liberty to publish if you think
proper.
Gov. McDuffie Bus year makes a splendid
crop of cotton, and a large surplus of provisions -
He has already picked out 200 bags, weighing
350 lbs. each, and will in all ptobability make
150 more. His force this year, is not so largo as
usual, several hands having been sent to the Vau
clusc Factory j and others - arc engaged in differ
ent business. This crop will be made and saved
by 50 efficient hands. Thus, it will bo seen, if the
estimate I hage made of the crop proves to be
correct (and I am sure il will be very nearly so,)
each hand will make 7 bags!—This is the twsl
crop the Governor ever made, and very much to
I* | his credit as a planter. It is the first crop he hat
1 bad the management and control of since thf
= commencement of his congressional career. Tin
order, neatness, and systematical arrangement ol
.- his plantation, ore admirable; and the careful at-
tonlion which he gives to the comforts of his nc
grace generally, and particularly to their cabins.
~ is deserving of all praise.”
,e COTTON PACKING, Ac.
Extract of a letter, dated
a Benton, Ala. Ocl. 25, 1830.
_ I notice in your last Chronicle, an oxtraordi
a, nary Packing of Cotton, on Col., Hammond's
Plantation. On a plantation some six or eight
, ( j miles from this village, thirty-two bales, weighing
s, between 450 and 500 lbs each, were gacked in a
y day. So Alabama, in raising such Horses as John
1 Bascamhc, and Packing of Cotton, cannot be
)f . beat; and Van Burcn will beat Harrison in this
- Slate, though (ho contest is doubtful between
•1 Van and White,” -

“TUB AMERICAN ALMANAC
And Repository of Useful Knowledge, for
the year 1837. Boston : Published by Charles
s Bowen."
Wc arc indebted to Messrs. T. H. A I. C.
d
e Plant for a copy of this very excellent work,
i, | which fully sustains the high character of its pre
• dccessors, and should be in the hands of every
I’ enquirer after knowledge—particularly every puli
lie man, who aims to base his means of public
t usefulness on established facts. Probably no
s work of similar size in the country contains so
, large a mass of important and valuable statistical
matter; and nearly the whole of it is of perma
a nent and increasing value ; so that it will always
be a work of useful and higldy instructive reset
. cnce—even more valuable as it becomes older,
and the statistics it contains are more difficult to
obtain. A brief view of the outlines of the work
—presenting, however, but a very faint dcvelope
ment of the great extent of its useful character
and information—may be seen in the following
extract from the preface :
, “This volume of the Almanac, besides the u
sual register of Ihe national and state govern
• meats, and American and foreign obituary, and
. chronicle of events, contains, among various oth
, or matters, a valuable treatise on the “ Use of
Anthracite Coal,” an account of “Public Libra
• rics,” a “ Statistical View of the Population of
i the United Slates,” a series of tables relating to
i the “ Cultivation, Manufacture, and Foreign
. trade of Cotton,” and Meteorological notes of
Seasons and tbs Weather; but the subject more
' especially treated of under the Individual States,
I is that of Internal Ivicrovement, particularly
. Canals A Railroads. This is a subject which
, has of late engrossed a great deal of attention in
the United Stales. AVithin a few years, extraor
dinary changes with respect to travelling and the
, facilities of intercourse between the different
, parts of country, have taken place ; and many
further important improvements are now in pro
gress. A brief general view of those changes
may be seen in the Preliminary Observations
prefixed to the notices of the Individual States.”
PARTY SLAVISHNESS.
What bools it that a people arc freed from one
kind of tyranny, when they volunlarily generate
and submit to another I And what tyranuy can
be more complete aud oppressive, than that of
party, in this country—what submission more
degrading, than that which the people yield to
il! AVIio, among jitr twelve million of boasted
freemen, dares think, and judge, and act for him
self, in all matters of gowiuuent and politics,
without reference to his party ! ‘.'hat would be
their feelings and sense of degradation, if any gov
ernment, or king, thus absolutely con Milled and
fettered their thoughts, judgmc •; action!
And is that which wo call tyranny and oppression
under a government or king, notso, when effected
in ajiy other way ! Can a mere change of name
or source, effect any actual change of the thing
itself! Or is it less degrading, because self cre
ated and voluntary ! Is the worship and tyran
ny of Juggernaut less so on that account! Nay,
is not such, the most disgraceful, disgusting, and
debasing of all tyranny !
Let him who reads this, ask himself if ho al
ways thinks and speaks openly and freely for
himself, on all matters of political interest, with
• out asking what is or may be the judgment or ac
tion of his party ; and if not, why ? If from
fear of a party, or ought else, is ho a freeman ;
or lessdegradingly slavish, because his submis
sion is voluntary, or there is no law, prison, or
legal penalty, to enforce it!
A people may be saved from the tyranny of a
a king or a government—but who shall save them
from themselves!
THE STEAMBOAT OGLETHORPE.
The Savannah Georgian of the sth inst. says: j
“ Wo hailed with feelings of no ordinary plea-1
sure, on the afternoon of yesterday, the renewed i
evolutions on her native waters of the fine |
Steamboat Oglethorpe. The calamity which
bcfcl her in the early part of the year our readers
must too well remember. The evil, as regards
the boat, was however confined so exclusively to
her upper works that a staunch foundation was
spared her, and upon that in the brief space of a
~ few months she has risen like a Phccnix from her
. parent ashes, an ornament to our river, and an
[ honor to the indomitable spirit and energy of her
, late worthy and enterprising owner, William
; Duncan, Esq. Her interests are now merged
into those of the Savannah and Augusta Steam
-1 boat Company, whose means of usefulness to our
;• Merchants at each end of our rivet are thus ma
-5 terially increased. The Oglethorpe from her
0 lower works, has been entirely rebuilt. Her for
s mcr high pressure engine has been replaced by a
- costly and beautiful one of fifty-five horse power,
- on the low pressure principle, from the raanufac
-1 tory of Cunningham & Hall, of New York, the
8 powers of which, during her hospitable trip of
! yesterday, (when, by the way, many good things
) were consumed, and many belter things said,)
4 appeared to our uninitiated lierceptions Leviathan
0 —*>hc has two cabins neatly arranged for her of
is ficers aud passengers. Long may she beat into
e foam tjie waters of the Savannah—richly freight
ie ed—richly guerdoned.
t NEWNAN’.S EXPEDITION.
I' l these times of Indian warfare, il may not
g he amiss to recur to those of the past, and show
how brave and gallant men, whose services, and
even their names, are now almost wholly forgot
ten, have fought and suffered in defence of the
country', and the protection of our South-western
frontier. Wo copy, therefore, to-day, from
j. Niles’s Register of December 12, 1812—A r ol. 3,
P a S° 235—Gen. Newnan’s official report of bis
celebrated Expedition of that year, against tho
g Seminole Indians; and feel assured that it will
a be read by all, but particularly those familiar
n with tile events of that time, or whose generous
1C feelings warm at a recital of the heroic deeds and
j g sufferings of the patriotic and brave, with the
n deepest interest. It affords us no little pleasure,
thus to keep alive the memory' of those events,
and of the gallant men who were engaged in them;
and oust it will serve to stimulate tho energy
r and bravery of others, now engaged against the
■s same enemy, and show how trifling arc the suf
ferings now ordinarily endured in the present
!. war, to those depicted in tho document rcfcired
[> to, and which there is every reason to believe,
.. from what we have gathered from other sources,
v are still but faintly set forth by tho lion-hearted
H veteran who details them, and whoso subso
c quent military services in Floyd’s campaign, nl
-0 so shew that he has been one of tho very last of
a men to quail before dangers and suffeiings, or to
1 look upon them with an exaggerating eye. Alas!
. that those services should have met with such
s a reward; and that one always so generously de
voted to his country, and regardless of self, should
.have been discarded in his old age, with little else
’ to show, us the results of his active and useful
life, but the many scars he has gathered in the
defence of those who cruelly and ungratefully
thrust him aside, because he would not sacrifice
r his principles and his patriotism for popularity
and party. And for whom I Aye, whom !
Where are their sacrifices, sufferings, and servi
ces! ’Twero well, for the honor of our State, if
| tho memory of this, could be as fleeting, as that of
• his public services and virtues.
[*
While of Black creek, on our way to Fort
f Drano, in Marc li last, we were reminded of this
expedition, and of the records of it we might find
J. as wc proceeded, by Col. Twiggs, of tho Army,
who spoke of it, and tho distinguished gallantry
, and bravery of No.vnan, and the want of a pro
’ per apprccation of and justice to him by the po i-
J pie ofGeorgia, with a warmth of feeling, which
. showed that however Ac might differ from him in
i politics, ho had a heart that sympathized too strong
1 ly with his heroic virtues to approve tho heartless
ingratitude that had driven him into retirement.
, Guided by his instructions, about 15 or 17 miles
i beyond the San Taffy River, and 5 or 6 on this
’ side of Micanopy, we discovered “Nkwxan’s
Fort,” so called by the people of that section, just
after ascending the hill on which Daniels’ descried
‘ house is situated, and about 150 yards from the
' road, on the left. It is composed of a wall of logs
1 and dirt, now not more than a foot high, with a
ditch outside—of an irregular oblong form, about
‘ 50 feet long, by 30 wide. Tho space immediately
around is open, A the ground level, except on tho
left, where there is a slight abrupt descent, and a
small pond,from which, il is presumed, Nownan’s
men obtained water. About a third of a mile far
ther on, is a largo pond, called “Ncwnari’s pond,”
through which the Indians were driven, and into
a thick swampy marsh, about a quarter of a mile
farther.
I Here, in'lhe very midst of the wilderness, and
the Seminole nation, with no friendly white set
tlement nearer than St. Marys, had this intrepid
hand of only 117 men, penetrated—a force barely
superior In numbers, to that of the unfortunate
Dade, and of course greatly inferior, in arms,
ammunition, equipments, and discipline, and e
qually remote from aid or succor—and here they
fought and vanquished the main force of that na
tion, and killed its principal chief, King I’ayne,
and a large number of his warriors; and wound
ed another ferocious and celebrated chief, called
Bowlegs.—AVc surveyed the whole scene, for a
length of time, with the deepest interest, both then,
and on our way back; and on returning home, in
our search after an account of the expedition’
found the official report of it referred to ; which*
if read with a tenth part of tho interest, by oth
ers, that it has been by us, will require no apolo
gy for its unexpected ap_ irance.
A Idler (evidently from the Col. Smith re
ferred to in the report, and which wo find on the
171st page of the same volume of llic Register,)
j dated “ Hollingsworth’s, October 12th, 1812,” in
1 detailing the events of this expedition, says:
j “ Too much praise cannot he bestowed on this
detachment, for their intrepid conduct. I flatter
myself the severe check they (the Indians,) have
1 received, will keep them quiet for awhile. If not
it will be absolutely necessary to send a sufficient
force to destroy all thoir towns in the province,
1 for the safely of our frontier.”—Of the persons
mentioned with praise by Gen. Ncwnan, for their
meritorious conduct in the expedition, tho “ Cap
tain” or “Ensign Hamilton,” is the gallant
Col. Hamilton, of Macon, late Secretary of-Stale;
and tho “ Lieutenant Fannin, commanding Fort’s
1 company” is the brave, chivalric, and generous
hearted Colonel A. B. Fannin, of Savannah,
r (brother of the intrepid A lamented Fannin, who
' fell in Texas,) and who, tho’ a Union man, is well
r known as a consistent, honest, and liberal politi
cian, and amiable and highminded gentleman,
1 whom every opponent most respect and esteem.

" that wc cannot fully identify.

0 Central Hail Road. —We are gratified to
1 learn (says the Savannah Georgian, ) that tiro
r Assistant Engineer of the Central Rail Road has
been engaged recently in laying oil' a portion of
1 the Road, commencing at the public lot at Spring
1 Hill, five acres of which has been generously
granted to the Company by the City Corporation
for a depot.
• There are now about seventy men at wotk on
' the Road, and others will he added to the mtm
; her as rapidly as the surveys and location of the

character for energy and perseverance, wo may

under circumstances which leave not the sliglit
’ est doubt that it will be carried forward to its
> completion with as much celerity as any other
1 work of the like magnitude, in any portion of
. our country.
j. Latest from Florida, —We learn by a gentle
man who left Black Creek the day before yesler
' day, that the forces at that station were immedi
ately to assemble at Fort Dranc, and with he
i friendly Creek Indians at that place, to make an
other expedition to the Wilhlacoocheo. It Was
understood, when our informant left, that no hope
was entertained of the Indians coming in peacea
! hly. Gen. Jcsup had arrived at Port Drane. Gov.
Cull, who had been ill, was convalescent, and the
health of the troops generally was improving.—

very scanty supply, and the low s ago of thd rivers,
holders have been enabled to realize their expec
tations. The operations, with the expectation of
a small quantity for eastern manufactories, have
been on French account. Sales of the week a

demand noticed as existing throughout last week
aud the week previous, has continued without a
hatumciit up to the present - time of making up
our present report—no sooner has the Colton been
landed, and gone through the necessary prepara
tion, in order to fit it for sale, than purciiascis
were found witling to take it, thus preventing any
accumulation in the slock. Buyers for France
have again been operating extensively, though
not so much to the exclusion of others of last
