OF THE
Augusta Chronicle State flights' Sentinel.
ml IE undersigned, nt present Editor of the State
.1 Rights’ Sentim.i , having juirclinard liie esmb-
meiitof the Ai'ot'sr v Uhidjmci.e, intends uniting the
two papers, on the first of January, under the above title.
From and utter that day, th? Uhuonui.k A Sentinel
will be publixhcd daily, semi-weekly, uud weekly,
throughout the whole \ ear.
Various considerations have conspired to induce a dai
ly piiidieatiou; omoiig which may be noticed as most
important, the prospeiouseond.it ion of A u gust a, its exten
sive eommereial husiiicss, and the extraordinary mail lit-
eilitios enjoyed by publishers of newspapers. Augusta
is the first point in the State, ntwhieh all news ofimpnr-
tuncc. whether commercial or politieul, is received troiii
New York, Charh'stou, and all other Cities and States in
the Atlantic portion of the I Jiiion, mid from hero it i* cir
culated hr mail*, diverging in ditferent directions, into
every part of the State. To all persons, then, interested
in the current nows of the duv, as u point from which it
can be derived at tlio earliest hour, and in the most au
thentic manner, this city certainly presents pre-eminent
advantages.
To the mercantile community, boili in the Uitv and in
the interior of the State, u commercial paper at thi* place
is of more importance than ut any other in the Union.

Protection of the flank of England against
Fire.—The remit fire in the |irintitig(lc'ptirtmetlt
within the ILiiik of Enijlnii j, mid the vast im-
pnrtnnce of there lieins ;t (till assurance of safe
ty for the enormous amount of securities and
money deposited in this national establishment,
may reader the following account of the means
of protection ngninst nay accident front fire,
which tlio hank possesses within itself, interesting
to the pultltc generally. lit the first place the
entire building is erected in a manner cautiously
designed to prevent the spread of fire. In ev
ery department arc strong rooms for tlio night
ly lodgings of books, moneys, and securities,
j and closets within those rooms, which together
with the rooms themselves, are deemed to he
perfectly fire proof. Tltcro is a nightly guard of
32 soldiers sent from liie Tower, who have each
his post withing the building. There arc be
sides, n number of the porters, of tlio principal
clerks, and othor officers \>f the establishment,,
constantly resident within the walls of the build
ing. A nightly watch of the confidential olliccrs
of the I’ank w ho take turns in rotation, is night
ly required. A general survey of every depart
ment and office of the building is made by those
gentlemen, who are on duty, thrice in the coarse
of every night—namely ,at tea o’clock, at mid
night, and at four o’clock in tbn morning. Oc
casional surveys of the more important apart
ments arc made in the intervals between these
stated times, of more or less extent, according
to circumstances, and the degree of vigilance
of tho gentlemen whoso turn it is to keep watch.
It was to this wise precaution that the time
ly discovery of the recent fire is to he attributed.
There are seven very excellent fire engines kept
within the Hank, which are monthly inspected
by the maker, and there is in every department
a good supply of fire buckets. In each of tho
yards of tho Hank are capacious tanks, judi
ciously placed and kept constantly filled with
water. Tho only deficiencies seem to be, tho
not having two or tlirco resident porters practi
cally acquainted with tlio management uf en
gines and the wantof pickaxes, saws, and crow- j
bars to tear up timbers, floorings, or partitions,
which might catclt fire. . j
Of the cause of the late fire, upon a careful ,
resurvey, no doubt could exist. The npertoro j
cut through ihe flooring by tho w orkmen and •
which was supposed by the clerk of tlio works j
to havo caused tho fire, by tlio fall of some ae- j
cidcntal sparks, was found to ho wholly tuitoucli- j
cd by fire, so that no doubt can exist but tlio .
iron hearth had formally days past been allowed, 1
. by tho accumulation of burning cinders, to lie- j
! como thoroughly *,saturated with boat," and j
iron being a powerful retainer and conductor of |
heat, tho strong beam that passed under tho ]
hearth and the cuds of tho girders which rested j
thereon, were gradually undergoing a process I
of decay front tlio constant nation of heat, till |
nt last they burst into a state of combustion.— j

in one horse carts, each containing half a ton of sil
ver, it would take 238,025. These ranged in one
unbroken line, would extend 070 miles; or from
Laud's End to within 24 miles of John o'Grout's
house. If carried by men, each loaded with 50 lbs.
weight, it would r< quire 5.333,3:131 or 1,331,033
men in addition to the xvbolo adult male population
of Great Ilritnin.”
Dr. Caspar, a learned physician of Horlin. lias
made some curious calculations, from which it ap
pears that the chances of life are highly ill favn
married fiver unmarried moii nml women, lie
sorts that flic mean diiraiion of life for married wo
men ot 2., is about 30 years, which for unmarried it
is only thirty and a half. At 30 tliero is n tliilcronce
of four years in favor of tlio married, nt 35 two
years, and so on. He says, llmt according to the
Amsterdam and Dcparcicux tables, the mortality
among iinitinrricd men from 30 to 45 is twenty seven
per cent, and only 18 fur married; and dint for 41
bachelors who arrive nt 40, there are 78 married
men. As age advances the difference is even more
striking; at die ago of fiO tliero are hut 22 tiiinmrri-
eil men alive for 48 married ; nt the age ol 70, eleven
bachelors for twenty-seven mauled men, nml *n 80
for three Imclielors w liu may clinnce to survive, iherc
are nine married men. - l'or females tho same pro
portion nearly holds good, ns seventy-two wives
live until the age of Ibrty-fivc, whilst only fifty-two
spinsters reach die same time of life. Now as Ion*
gevilv and marriage appear to go hand in hand, we
would advise such as may desire to he happy, nml

fm/mr/ant Tnrrntian—Abraham Morrison,
Ksq. of this borough (Jninestowu) has recently
invented a canal boat, on n now principle, the
tile bouts i
very reverse of the one on which the boats now
in usenrcconstructed. About has been built
by Mr. Isaac Cooper, of this town, umlerlhe tll-
lection of tho inveutor which will ho launched
" during the present week, if tlio wentherctintiuiiaa
favorable, by which the utility of tho invention
w ill he tested, and wo have no doubt that the
result of tho experiment will ho highly satisfac
tory.
The principle on which the boats now employ
ed on canals, atid other navigable waters, is well
known ; they nre convex in the hall or hulk, and
consequently cast a wave on either side, as
they literally plough through tho watery ele
ment.
This principle, which has been tmivorsally n-
dopted, is reversed by Mr. Murrisott's invention.
His boat is built in tlio shape of an oblong square
nml tlto keel or bottom is concave, instead of
convex, and tho sides of tho boat pass through
the water in a vcnical position ; thus creating a
current under tho centre of tha boat, the conca
vity of which it elevated nt tho how or prow, for
tho introduction of tho current produced by her
motion. Itis thus apparent, that no wave enu
lie thrown from tho sides, whose vertical form re
pels tho idea that any material undulation can
ride, tu remain single, nml wither as the leaves I thus lie created, liotv rapid soever the speed may
lie, which would ho calculated to injure the
hanks of tho canal.

INSTRUCTIONS.
Mr. V. Rtireii'e papor artillery bu been Hie-
chargiug it* content* for four year* past against
those tvlto they pretended, had violated the right
of instructions. Whensoever a State suppor
ted hy tliu votes of its people, directly or inciden
tally, the men or the measures of the ndminii-
trntion, the cry was that tho Senator* from such
Slate, iflf'higs, violated instructions—disregar
ded tiie will of the people—ttulrn* they resignad.
This has heen tho doctrine anti the discipline of
thi* mercenary faction- A few weeks ago, and
th.i Richmond Enquirer, Argus, Pennsylvanian
—ct id (canuj omne—buoyed up by the prospect*
of the Usurper in Ohio, wero rejoicing at the •
probability that " Mr. Solitude. Ewing," a* they
very courteously culled the distinguished Sena
tor from Ohio, would have to retire into solitude.
Judge Maugitin and Judge Southard, too, of
Noiih Carolina uod New Jersey, have been
vehemently assailed for not resigning their rea-
pective seat* in favor of administration men,
lint," the. case being altered, alters the cusp."
Now that Ohio, New Jersey, Indiana, and Ten
nessee, have given decisive majorities against
the Usurper, these prints are silent, Messrs.
Hendricks, Tipton, Morris, Wall, and Grundy,
may spurn ut the popular will, and deride the
principles of instructions, and these honest print*
will not And it in their hearts lo censure. No-
no. " The case being altered, alters the case."
These are tho choice spirits of Air. V. Bureu, .
and his interests are parinount, in their honest
opinions, to the interests of the people, null thn

insulting defiance of the popular will—the Le
gislature—the servants of that people,, have ap
pointed a violent and furious partisan of Mr. V.
Huron to express the opinions and principles of
thu .State of Georgia in tho Scmito of the Uni
t'd States ! ! Ho also in North Carolina, where
there is, no doubt, a majority of at leasts $000 ,
votes against tho Usurper, tho same contempt of
the popular will has hoen exhibited hy the par
tisans uf Mr. Van Ilmen in the legislature. .

der the circumstances, have beeu elected to re- -

of tho right of instruction, express or implied—

irlaud. Where is tho coiiimou sense of the peo
