this road. We called to mind the acts, and the re
iterated expressions of opinion made by tho Senior
Editor of that paper during his residence in this
place, and thought ourselves justified in concluding
that a change of residence had exorcised some influ
ence in producing so extreme a change of opinion.
Wc expressly declined a comparison of the rela
tive value of the Savannah and Apalachicola mar
kets, because we feared that it would create preju
dices against Apalachicola. We expressed our de
sire to cultivate friendly relations with tliatcity, and
car willingness to co-opcrate in any practical plan
for improving our river and promoting the prosperi
ty of Apalachjcola. . But our moderation and good
intentions Eoom to be unavailing. The Advertiser
of the 14tli Jtjie contains a eecond article, charac
terized by duM wittticisms, personal inucndocs, and
a lack of argumentative point, which wc do the edi
tors the' justice to say are not common to that paper.
We do not wonder that fears were entertained as to
the fate of those “ bantlings.” We have never seen
two article* more open to retort and “ annihilation.'
But we have no spleen to gratify and no personal in
terests to promote, but such as are common to our
fellow-citizens, and would ho promotive of the wel
fare of the community in which wc live.
We have no doubt that one object of the senior
editor in wishing to prevent the completion of our
Rail rood, was to” add much to the commerce of
Apalachicola but he could no* havo taken a course
better calculated to defeat his object.
Wo have herethfore declined a comparison of the
S2.f.vm.h .iwt Ajs»lneliirola tnsrl-nt«. «nd shall say
no more now upon that subject than to check the too
confident assumptions of the Advertiser, and show
that there aro two sides to the question upon wliich
its editor unwisely courts a discussion.
If “ Apalachicola affords a higher price for cotton
than'Savimnah,” why do we find under the commer
cial head of the Advertiser, that the people of Apa
lachicola are actually shipping cotton from that
place to Savannah, Charleston, Baltimore, New York
and Boston, at from 81 to $ 1.50 per bale, besides
paying -insurance, interest, ami other expenses;
v.-hilM theso same Atlantic ports aro shipping cotton
to Europe ? . Again, why do merchants here, who
aro connected in business with merchants at Apa
lachicola, pay ooe dollar per hundred lbs, or four
dollars per bale, to have cotton hauled to Macon,
from-whcrice they must pay two dollars per hale to
get it tb Satannah, when it can be hauled to Bain-
bridge, and-from thence taken to Apalachicola for
one half tint money T Again, why do our merchants
even t>o\v get tho major part of the articles which
they sell the planters, via Savannah and Macon ?
If we .take for granted vvliat we presume the Ad
vertiser wfl not deny—that the merchants of Apa
lachicola-and Albany understand their own interests,
and regulate their commercial transactions accor
dingly, thmqthc theories of the Advertiser are con
tradicted by the facts dcduciUc from tlieir action,
which proves that the Atlantic markets aro superior
to Apalachicola for the sale of cotton, and for the
purchase of necessaries for consumption—excepting,
as we have always done, articles of Western pro-
Ilartl to Plnwe.
Several of the Whig Editors are very much dis
satisfied with the proceedings cf the Democratic
Convention lately assembled nt MiUedgcvillc.—
Things have evidently not gone to suit them.—
They had hinted at jealousies, dissatisfaction anil
dissentions in the Democratic ranks. But behold,
union, harmony and strength pervades the whole
Democratic Family throughout the Stato. . This,
so contrary to their hopes, has displeased them.
They had frequently asserted that the Democratic
party had no principles to stand on. But the Con
vention has'ndopted the Resolutions and Principles
of the Baltimore Convention. This also, has offen
ded them. In fact they appear to he displeased with
the whole conduct of the Convention, from begin
ning to end, and wc think quite likely they will be
still more dissatisfied with the final result, in tho
October election.

To the Editors tf the Patriot:
Gentlemen—I enjoyed with you, tho paper on

find it as truly a pleasure to write as wc to read his
pieces, thqt your sheets may be constantly enliven
ed by his original humor, and faithful “ fancy lore.”
There is one error which ho has fallen into, how
ever, in his sweeping denunciation of fancy, which,
as an “ Abstractionist,” I am forced to notice—his
confounding it with this most powerful regulator of
the acts of both men and nations. I allude, of course,
to his criticism of Mr. Jefferson's ever memorable
introduction to our Declaration of Independence,
“ that all men are created free and equal”—the great
political truth—the foundation of all the riglits we
now enjoy, and the only one upon which the princi
ples of rational government can possibly rely for all
time to come. What U the force that will govern
under all circumstances, and all conditions of men ?
picand so necessary was this anomaly in these
tion of our government,' that no sooner was a Demo
crat put in power, than be too found the wide difler-
enco between theory and practice, and forthwith pur
sued the latter, i’o confirm tins, the administration
of Mr. Jeflerson was evidenced,'and the contradiction
attempted to be settled by it—but not so. “ That
tho majority shofild nilo,”'and “that tho majority
can da no wrong,” are two very (lift' 1 rent propositions.
I know that the majority Is my mastor, and that I
can have no better.; I pplj’ hope that his rule will be
equitable end firm. It isyio' at all incompatible that
a good Democrat should be a soijere ruler; lie knows
full well that if his.poWCr fail ‘to restrain evil, the
days of legitimate rule arcovef, and nil the sacred
ness of law assailed. . I leave it tb those who make
the charge upon Mr. Jefferson to prove it; I only
meet the abstract question and answer it.
Nor does the critic ism of your correspondent gain
any tiling in view of kite uses ivliich have been made
by the enthusiasts of our age, of this admission of
our great Statesman, In all-of his physical and
metaphysical writings, Mr, jeflerson was careful in
drawing the broad .line of distinction which exists
between the white man. and the black—the curse
had been impressed on them ipt mind nnd in body.
In an essay to the Institute of France, ho points out
forcibly the difference in. odour, and difference in
the irritability of mind, tig: negro requiring half the
sleep of the white man; the one preventing all so
cial identity, an4.the other all intellectual sympathy;
tlie first rendering them a-nui|anco to tiio domestic
circle, the latter a, drag'to the. national councils.—
Tlie African did not then como under tho accepta
tion of his his “ free and''equal” race—thoro could
bo no |mlitical nniOn whatsoever; “tho law of the
majority” could not demand ’■ the sacrifice of truth,
even had Mr. Jeflerson been capable of it—hence no
abolition argument can be drawn from it. But it is
enough to allude to the subject

Albany, June 20, 1815:
Agreeable to adjournment the citizens convened
this evening for the purpose of hearing tlie Report
of tho Committee to prc|are suitable Resolutions
expressive of their regret of tlie death of General
Andrew Jackson, and select some -suitable per-on
to pronounce a Eulogy upon the life mid character
of the deceased. Tho following is the report of the
Committee, made tiirough their Chairman, Hon.
Lott Wakken :
Whereas, we have been suddenly called upon, in
common with our fellow citizens of tlie United
States, to mourn the death and honor tlie memory of
Gen. Andrew Jackson, whom an inscrutable and
mysterious Providence, in his great wisdom and
mercy has seen proper to tike to his final resting
place, after graciously permitting him to spend a
long and useful life in tlie service of his country—a
man whose love of liberty in our Rcvolutiouarv
strugglc while yet a strippiing boy, induced him to
espouse the cause of tlie much despised Rebels, and
manfully to oppose British tyranny in an hour of
our country’s history which ‘tried mens souls,’ and
whose brilliant achievements in our last war never
can be forgotten while an American fives whose
lioart bouts true to Ids country and to liberty—his
pure nnd sterling integrity, his high and ardent pat
riotism, together with uu exalted character in his
whole public career, entitle him to tlie lasting grati
tude of his countrymen, who would bo unworthy oi
his great name dhl they not cherish his memory and
emulate his virtues.
We, therefore, tlie citizens of Albany, do resolve
to meet on tlie 4th of July next, in order to pay a
proper tribute of respect to the memory of so illus
trious a patriot.
Resolted, Tliat tlie citizens of Baker ami tlie

and gratitudo to, our recently deceased countryman,
we wear cra|ie for the space of thirty dayB.
