j / Oar friends in Troup county will (ilensc bear m
i!' m'« that the y \v ill hav** an opportunity of arttlinu for
\\c Jot'iiNAt. inilie early part of th" «n l, at their nr.\t
S iperior Court, its nnr of the Bditors contemplates at.
t.mlintf fi r that jiurj)**fo.
Wo hope* in tho ino »n titn", that our friends in other
parti* of the State, will not forget to send us the amount
due liv thorn, by their Members of the Ij°gisl.attire, as
xv . have been to a great deal of expense in purchasing
new typ , and improving the appearance of our paper,—
of course, need o.ery dollar that is iluc. us.
SUSPENSION.
Wo were mistaken when we made the assertion in
our last week's paper, that “ere another week, and all the
hanks would suspend specie payment for their bills.”
Our predictions linvc not been verified. The hanks of N*
Voik have not suspended, neither have they in Huston.
In our own city of Savannah, they still pay the specie.
In Augusta some have suspended, and others still hold
„.,t. A friend informs ns that the Macon Hanks have
not suspended. The Columbus Hanks have suspended
o; the two Hanks in this place that have been doing bu
siness of late, one, the Milledgeville Hank, lias suspend
c d ; the other, a branch of the State Bank, has not.
This state of things is singular in the extreme, and, ij
it holds out to the cmi, must prove disastrous to those in
stitutions who, “upon the spur of the moment,” yielded
to the panic created by the suspension of the United
States Hank, unless they retrace their steps. It is al
most impossible, however, to form any idea how it is to
result. There appear to be two great parties formed,
consisting, on the one hand, of those banks who follow
the example set by the Philadelphia Banks, and who
advance the same arguments to sustain them in their
suspension; and, on the other, of those who take the N.
York Hanks for their guide in this exceedingly important
matter. At present, the New-York Hank party have j
the advantage in the contest, for they affirm that they
are able to pay the specie for their bills, and they do so.
Thu other, and no less important position which they a*"
suuic, is to be determined by events as they transpire,
viz : that there exists no necessity for a suspension at all.
Wc hope that they may bo correct in their positions,
and if ho, that those institutions, in our own state, who
have hastily yielded to what they conceive to be a pro.
per course, will resume at an early day. We will watch
the progress of events, and report the same to our readers.
Circumstances have prevented our paying that attention
to this subject which its great importance demands. At
;«nv and at all times, we feel that the question of a bus.
pension of specie payments by the banks is a matter too
important for us to hastily pass opinions upon. Thi s
being the case wc forbear, for a while, at least.
"Impudence.
From an opposition press we extract the ollowing
remarks. In allusion to our home affairs the editor
say* : —« The Van Btiren party go into power under vc«
rv d.sadvantageous circumstances. Federal misrule has
reduced the State almost to poverty ; and nothing but
the most prudent and decisive measures will bring her
out.” The wickedness of this world, is only equalled by
the impudence of certain of the editorial fraternity who,
to advance party supremacy, constantly vomit forth the
fancies of their jaundiced, if not corrupt minds. The
above extract taken literally, speaks “the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth.”—The Van Huron
party do go into power under very disadvantageous cir
cumstances, if they are just now “ going into power”
at all. (Wo should like to know when it was that, in
tho legislature, they wore out of power.) And that
“ Federal Misrule” has reduced tho State to absolute
necessity, if not poverty, is another truth beyond dis
pute. Literally, and without disguise or mask of any
kind, it was under “ Federal misrule” that the State
was sucked of her prosperity, and reduced to a state of
begging and borrowing by the “ misrule” of the spoils
men. Notwithstanding that the Stale was replenished by
the surplus fund of the General Government being trans
furred to her coffers, yet, to carry out the dislributinn of
the Central Rank in the fall of 1*$37, (a measure con
cocted and planned to secure the election of a Federalist,
and to keep the State under “ Faltral misrule”) were
the agents of that Institution despat died all over the
country to borrow money, for that purpose, and to pay
the members of the Legislature, so dry was the Treasu
ry, at the period alluded to, their per dicin for their ser
vices. It was under a state of things that had not been
witnessed for years before in Georgia, that the present
Chief Magistrate entered upon a discharge of his duties
an exhausted treasury on the one hand to perplex him,
and a party drilled to throw obstacles in his way, on th* 1
other. Almost the first act of his administration was
to put his veto upon that system of lawless plundering
which had characterised these devotees of party and of
“ Federal misrule;” and yet, do wo find a portion of
that press wlio were engaged in supporting a cause that
lias brought poverty to our very doors, impudently advau
ring charges of “misrule” against those who havi
never had the power to do, even though their intentions
were,as is supposed by their opponents, of an evil charac
ter. It is well, however, that this subject has been brought
into discussion by the Van Burcn press. They have
only anticipated the demands which would certainly
have been made upon the whole press, bv the people, for
an explanation of the causes tint have led to the pres,
ent state of things. We are fully prepared, having truth
and justice on our side, to meet the issue, let it come
when it will. At present, wc would call uj»on that por
tion of the fraternity who have broached this subject to
advance the argument to sustain their broad and sweep,
ing charges. Should they he able to make even a shi
of argument, we promise to meet them with such an
array of “stubborn facta” as will slnke the very foun
dations of their party—the jteople being the judge.
OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY.
We would remind our citizens that on to-dav and to
morrow, the young gentlemen attached toth s Universi
ty, are expected to deliver addresses on various subjects,
in the College Chafiel. The examination of the elapse
closed on yesterday. We understand it was highly
creditable to the Institution. Circumstances prevented
our persona! attendance, otherwise we should have taken
great pleasure in witnessing and reporting the “order of
proceedings.”
THE CENTENARY.
The Centenary of Methodism was celebrated in this

Tnr. Sorriirr.N Lnr.:;.\r.v Mr.ssrvirn, for October*

usual quantity of interesting and useful matter. From
soino cause, we do not receive it regularly. The Mes
senger is not only creditable to its Editor, Mr. White,
but to the South generally. If it has not already, it
ought to have a very extensive circulation.
Tnr. Corsair is received weekly, and with much re
gularity, laden as usual, with its “plunderings” from

and corresponds for the Corsair. II s letters are quite
interesting, and are madu up of the “sayings and do

Timur- officers whose duty it is to carry into effect the
provisions of the late "Act to rstiiblish Ggcntml fyxtnn
"f rduciUum by common schools,” will confer a particular
favour by informing the public, why this has not been
done, as far a? is practicable, in this, as well as in other
counties.
It is very desirable that thepeopleof the several Dis
tricts should he informed what amount of the common
school fund they are to receive, whenever it shall have
become available, as it would have much influence in
determining whether to employ Teachers the ensuing
year or not. Baldwin County.

Macon, (let. 22nd, 1839.
On motion of E. A. Nisbet, Macon, Ga. that the Re-
port just read by Gen. Hamilton, he received and refer
red to the Committee of 21. Carried.
Jos. G. Gamble, Florida, submitted the following
Resolutions, with a request that they may he refered to
the Committee of 21.
Resolved, That the Convention disclaims all inten
tion or w.sh by its action to obtain for American Cot.
ton*, higher prices, than such as will naturally result
from the law of supply and demand. And the necessity
for the meeting of the Convention would not have exist
ed but for combinations ami measures adopted else
where, for disturbing the operation of that law.
Resolved, That while our habit* and inclinations lead
us to prefer Agricultural pursuits; we are well apprised,
that, if it shall become necessary, we can employ a per-
tion of our labor in the production of Cotton Yarns,
upon terms w hich will enable us to supply the Weavers
of Europe, as cheaply as can be done by the British
Manufacturer. Such a conversion of our labor, however,
is not desired by us—nor, unless forced to it in self-de
fence, will we have the disposition to break up the com
mercial connexion which exists between the Cotton
Planter and British Spinners.
Resolved, That it will be expedient to take measures
annually to procure correct information of the extent of
the Colton Crops of the United States—and that a Com
mittee be appointed to prepare and report to the Conven
tion, a plan for attaining said object
On motion C. C. Mills, Ala. that Col. Gambles, Res

Central Railroad.—Ten mile* in Addition to tha
eighty miles of this road in use, are complete, and tho
wooden superstructure extend* to a point 93 miles from
this city.
It has been usual, hitherto, to open for use sections of
ten miles a* the same were completed, but we learn
that in consvquonco of the want of proper store-houses
at the 90 mile point, the next opening of road will ex
tend to the 100 mile station. At that point, commodious
store-houses are being erected, and will be finished be
fore tho first day of January next, and by that time one
hundred miles of road will he. ready for travel. The 100
mile station is distant from the River Ogechec whore
that stream is crossed by the road, about one mile. The
bridge for tho passago of the river will he completed by
or before the first day of January. Thus at the opening
of the new voar wc shall have more than half of the road
finished aiul in use. Tho grading already extends ono
hundred and thirty miles, more than tioo thirds of the en
tire distance.
The energy and perseverance of the President am!
directors of this work, are worthy of all praise, and givu
the most direct assurance of the judicious expenditure
of any sum which the Htatcmay see proper to subscribe
to the road. It i* probable that the road* in progress
will apply to the le gislature now soon to meet, for aid,
and wo thing if other companies can show that they
have done and are doing as well as the Central
Rail Road, all of them should be liberally aided by the
State.
We refer our readers to the report of this month,
showing the sound condition of the Central Railroad
Bank.—Savannah Georgian.

and James Beard, of Miccosukie, were attacked by a
small party of Indians on the Federal Road, about five
miles east of tho Ocilla, within three miles of a regu
lar |>ogt. Mr. Burney received two balls in his shoulder
and leg; tlic latter wounded his horse—ho was however
able to makeliis escape with his horse. Mr. Beard was
shot in the hip, and his horse badly wounded—he endea
vored to escape, but the Indians pursued and caught his
horse, he presented a pistol, and the Indians retreated
behind trees to reload their rifles, when taking advan

by a party of regulars, so disabled that ho could not

“ On the same evening an attack was made on

Help Yourself,then call upon Hercules!—The
acting Governor ot Kentucky, with a view to raising, the
sum of #200,000, which is necessary for carrying on the
public improvements of that State, propise’s a sale ot
H:x per cent state bonds, to tint amount. In the hope of
promoting the sale of this stock, for such important pur
poses the Governor has addressed a Circular to a large
number of the wealthy ami patriotic citizens of Kentucky,
making a strong appeal to them to spare something of
their abundance, and to apply pome portion of their sur
plus means, in the pure hove’of these bonds. The sur
plus floating capital of the world appears to be pretty
well used up, for the present. The result, necessarily
is, that states and communities,, must,for a tunc, look at
home for the means of prosecuting their improvement
systems. They must lay their own shoulders manfully
to tin wheel, before looking for external aid. Their do
ing?", will be the most fikcly way of securing that aid,
when times begin to mend, and foreign capital shall be
again, to a reasonable extent, come-at-able.
Raltimore Patrittf.
An odd Circumstance.—On Monday, rather a queer
rase occurred in front of Mr. Sanderson's Hotel, in
Four*.h street. A gentleman named Stroud was view
ing the procession >n houorofthe arrival of ('resident
Van Buren, and in putting his hand into his pocket to
extract his handkerchief, he pulled out a purse and n
jKwkct-bock, neither of which articles belonged to him.
The surmise i* that they had been dejiositrd there by
some pick-pocket, who being pushed rather hard, made
use of the sailor’s maxim, “Any port in a storm,”—The
articles are yet in hi* possession,—Philad Ledgtr.
We have been told, that, on a recent visit to England
Capt. Stockton, of the IT. S. Navy, of hi* own dotion and
at his own cost, without any commission from our gov
ernment, devoted his inquiring mind to the subject of
Ateam vessels of war, and that lie brought with him, on
his return to this country, ample drawings and a costly
and hoau’ifiil mod") of a Steam Frigate on a new con
struction and combination of principles, which in the
opinion of experienced officers of the Navy, promise* to
excel and supersede any plan of building steam vessel*
of war hitherto adopted by any nation. Tho structure
and arrangement of force, proposed by f’apt.’Stockton, are
said to admit of the use of sails in ordinary weather,
wit hout any loss of speed, thus leaving t he fuel and steam
power to he employed in calms or agaiiiHt an enemy’s
force. His plan, in sliort, preserve* the frigate model
and the speed of motion which that only can give, and
add* all the advantages of steam as occasion may de
mand. His plan is said to promise the most Important
results in naval warfare. It would be hut just, should
his zeal Bnd science accomplish all that is anticipated,
tluit the first man-of-war steamer should bear the name
of and be commanded by her architect.

“When the Wicked rear hhi.f, the People
mourn.”—If the truth of this were not vouched by the
highest authority known to men, it would yet be fully
demonstrated by the present condition of this country.
If wo look to what we have been, and to what we
now are, we find that within the lapse of a few short
years, we have been precipitated from tho highest state
of individual And national prosperity to one in all rcs-
jwctH directly the reverse. Ann this melancholy change
in our condition we have experienced without war,
without famine, and without pestilence. The seasons
have been propitious to the husbandman—the people
have been industrious—hut all to no avail. The ab
sence of positive curses and the presence of real bless
ings, are frustrated and neutralized by thedoniiiiatioiiuf
corrupt mou,aud their baneful and blighting interference
with tho concerns of the people. A believer in Holy
Writ can scarcely contemplate our condition without
the conviction tint our sufferings are visitations from on
High for professing to be a religious and moral jieople,
and yet toler.ving rulers whose whole lives are in open
contempt of tho precepts of religion, and in utter viola
tion of the canons of morality.—Richmond Whig.
Cure of IIydrophoria.—M. Buisson, a physician at
Paris, in a recent publication, gives the following account
of Ins experience of Hydrophobia, am) Ins mode of cure:
“M. Buisson had been railed on to visit a woman, who
for three days was said to he siiflering under this d:s-
e ise. She had the usual symptoms—-constriction of the
tnroaf, inability to svvaliou-, abundant secretion of saliva,
mid foaming at tho mouth. Her neighbors said she h id
been bitten by a mad dog about forty days before. At
her own urgent request, sir 1 was bled, and died a few
hours alterward, as was expected. M. Buisson, who had
Ins hands covered with blood, incautiously cleaned them
with a towel which had been used to wipe the mouth of
the patient, lie Ii ul an ulceration ii|h»ii one of his fin
gers, yet thought it sufficient to wash off the saliva that
adhered with a little water. The ninth day after, bring
in his cabriolet, he was suddenly seized with a |miii in
his throat, and one still greater in his eyes. Tlic saliva
wa* constantly pouring into the mouth; tlie impression
of a current of air, or the sight of brilliant bodies, gave
him a painful sensation. His body ap|>enrod so light
that he felt as though ho could leap to a prodigious
height. He experienced, he said, a wish to run and
bite—not men, but animals and inanimate bodies. Fi
lially, he drank with great difficulty, and the nig lit of wa
ter was still more distressing to him than the pain m bis
throat. These symptoms occurred every five minutes,
and it appeared to Inin as I hough the pain comment 1
in his affected finger, and extended the
death, poor little fellow.” [Tommy and his mother set
up a most lamentable wailing, j
“ Here,” said the office fieeker, “may be seen the
practical effects of tfiat odious recommendation ! When
will men sec tho horrible thing in its proper bearing.
I’ve spent most of my time tin? past six months in try
ing to show up this distressing thing in its true light —
lint men won’t mind any thing I say ; and my projwrty is
go ng to ruin, just on account of this thing. I’m hearti
ly disrouraged!” | Comm ?nces crying in company with
Ins wife and child.]
The kitchen maid now enters, a ml tcnihling, inquires
what Ins happened.
“tf. do see poor little Tommy,” said tho old lady,
“ it’s the forty million debt wh it ails him—seo how he
tumble* about the floor—Ikw*, boo, boo!”
“ It’s hi! him!’* said the in.aid, “and h"’* either got
the hydrofogia or tlicdismonitoiy symptoms, true os the
world. Poor Tommy!” [Maid chimes in with the otluTs,
and cries most bitterly.]
Mingo, th.* ostler, attracted by the groans and sobs,
conies nmning from the barn, and with ‘eyes like bullets,’
inquires “wat made sich a debhlc ob a fuss!”
“It’s forty million death* what’s all but killed little
Tommy,” replied the maid.
“Deni’s the s un * critters wat bit iny h«*ol toddor night
in dc dark, and *k.irc d.s rliil mos todef! Wat ail you
too, massa, eh?”
“O Mingo, it’s the cursed Hcu'ard debt,” replied the
office seek tv.
“ Yes! the Steward’s debt” cried the old lady.
“It’s the Slewed to death,” sobbed the maid.
“ Th/* Stewed dead!” yelled Tommy.
“Gosh amighty! de Screwed bed!” ejaculated Min-
go—
“ Then they aH set up a crying Ol”
The Tournament at Kgi.intoun Castle.—Tho Eng
lish papers justly treat tins expensive pageant with
great contempt, considering it as one of the most inex
cusable follies of the day. From all accounts, it must
have proved a source of infinite mortification to its pro
jector, who, after liaving h|h*iil many months and many
thousand* of pounds tn preparation, found all his plan*
confounded by an envious storm, which drenched the
knights, besmirched their armour, llinided the li*ts, and
turned the whole atVair into a most uncomfortable farco.
The (Inceil of love and beauty, instead of being seated,
as of old, upon her throne surrounded by vassals obedi
ent to her tein|Hirary hut absolute authority, was oblig
ed to seek refuge in her carriage, whence she could see
the rest of the female cortege, like so many Dorothy
Draggletails, hiding th" jieltiiig of the pitiless storm in
gazing upon the tilting of th" knights, in the midst of
rain, mud, am! insufferable vexation. How often have
we all, in tlie days of our childhood, experienced a sim
ilar disappoint meat!—IIow many an excursion imon
whose anticipated pleasure* tho heart has been feeding
for weeks beforehand, has burn rendered iinpo*sihle
from *otne inauspicious mid apparently envious change
of the sky ! Tho children of larger growth, who had
looked forward to the tournament as tlie scone of pleas
ure, experienced a disappointment which can scarcely
provoke our sympathy. It wa*a silly and unworthy ex
penditure of a vast sum of money, which, if rightly em
ployed, uuglit liave been contributed to the advantage
of society, or have gratified Home laudable object of am
bition.
The tournaments of ancient days have been invested
with interested cbielly inconHuqueitce of the good fortune
they enjoyed ot being bonded down to posterity M’itball the
aid* ot poetrv and romance. The passage at arms at Eg-
lintoun castle, we fear, is likely to be clogged with all the
reality of this utilitarian age. We shall have it a* it
was. The rain, th" disappointment, the failure will nli
he recorded, a* well a* 111" splintering of lancer, the gay
dresses, the gorgeous preparation, tin* splendid banquet.
Even had all things turned out a* they Mere expected,
how brief and unsatisfactory would have been the fame
which each successful knight would have acquired. But
for Walter Scott who would have known, in these
days, that Sir Brian in. Bois Guiliirkt was one of the
most renowned knight* of chivalry in the days of Cieur
de Lion! There is now *carctly one of all th" long list
of those who, hi the tourneys of tho*e day* fancied they
were gaining an immortality of fame, of whose exist
ence there is any record. The author of Ivanhoe, hiin-
self, was aware ofthe fleeting character of tin* v.uii re
nown, wlwu after referring to the gorgeous apparel, the
quaint devices, the splendid armor of the knights, he
thus deplores the early obscurity to which all were
doomed.

TJm ir escutcheon* have long mouldered front the walls
ol their castle*. Their castle* themselves aro hut green
mounds and shattered ruin*—the place tint once knew
them knows them no more—nay, many a rare since
theirs has died out and been forgotten in the very land
which they occupied, with all the authority of feudal
proprietors and feudal lords. What, then, would it avail
th * reader to know their names, or the evanescent syir«
hoi* of their marshal rank !
