I jfff&ti and cjprnoirs will not teach the people use. lessons, "c know not of what utility either lads, or ricnre, are. And if the people of Gee rg,a—aye, of whole South—aro not by this t one satisfied that they W en' most egregious!}' humbugged wl|gn they discarded j| t . Clay, and elected Mr. Polk, we have this cunsula- lioit in store, that they will vert/ soon be. Let the reader sill to mind the events ol a few short months, and de- istmine if we are not right in our position ! Why was it that the people of the South were called spun to go against Mr. day's election I It was because be was I.gainst the annexation of Texas, unless upon Ut and hot orable terms wo received it, violating no 'ntional faith,pledged by treaty with Mexico—and bo. cause, honestly doubtful of tho good policy of the tneas. lie,gotten up bs it was, he candidly avow ed it. It was (or these reasons that the hoe and cry was raised against kim. It was for these reasons llmt Hotspur politicians ofilieSotithiSUch as Gen. Hamilton and others, win, , few weeks before, couid not laud Mr.Clay loo highly, cawtoat against Inin. And such opposition, swelling In numbers, as the election grew Higher, caused Ins detent in Georgia. These men, and such as these llrainrd every nerve to convince the people of the 'South.that the annexation of Texas to the Union was (heir political and personal salvation. It would, they wspicil, strengthen the South, against which was the tiluice of power. It would maintain Southern Stare- vyagainst the unholy crusaders of the North, whose gfcrts would else prove disastrous to its existence. It sis to extend Southern Territory, Southern Institu tions, and Southern influence, in the United States Srnateand Congress. The election of Mr. Polk, and the defeat of Mr. U>ay, would ensure this. And with t loud hurrah, reckless ami desperate of consequences, they, with a rush, obtained their object. Mr. Polk »as elected, Mr. Ciny was defeated ; but the object which made the South aid to effect this, has not yet, Olid never will be attain d. Texas may bo annexed—we hope that it will—and we are ready to do all that Is honorable and just to effect the measure. And we take this position, main- ly because if will strengthen the South. Wo looked to Mr. Polk to assume it in his inaugural—but we had no idea that the great Southern measure was to be coupled with one directly opposite to it in every respect. H’e had no idea that “Young Hickory” Wuuld claim “all the whole boundless continent”— or that lie would, like Alexander Selkirk, declare ■‘I oin monarch nf all I miivev, My right there is none to cli^|,ntc— From l tie centre nil round toiliesen, I mu lord of (lie fowl and the brute.” • Vho !«*gitUtfr« of 1833, all Lot*, drawn bjr individual* tfiot* I unit lot, and tho Lottery of l&lt, embmeinp the countie# of,'origin* ally, Dooly, Hoiutuit, Monroe, Henry end Payette; also in ibat of 1637. embracing, originally, Lee, Muftcogot, I roup, Coweta, and Carroll j and in that of 1883, em- iiracinjr, originally, Cherokee, but now Clierokcr, For. -yib.

I' urther provision* of tl»e same act, enabled any person “ citizen of this fchafe, to grant any reverted lot, from and alter the 1st day of October last, at $3000—from and after the 1st day of Noveintnir, at $1500—from and alter the 1st day of December, at $1000—and from and after the 1st day of January, and until the 1st day of May, inclus ve, at $500. Util one lot, according to iho nbove provisions of tho act, was granted, and that was done on the 2»‘U day of | April, at $500. The other provisions of the act are to thia effect. From and after the first day of May, instant, any person a citizen of this State can grant a lot, at 250—Irom and after the first day of July next, at $100—from and af ter the first of September next, at $25—and from and after the 1st of January next, at $5. Up to this time, only 15 lots have been granted at $250, but, we presume, many more will be granted at tiie snmo price. NVo Inve made this statement, in consequence of learning that a report extensively prevails all over the country, that the act of 1843, has been suspended in its operations by the Governor. Such is not the fact- ami parties interested, particularly tenants in posses* sion, who have purchased from the drawers reverted lots, had better look to their interests. We have heard of many a hard case, where lots have been sold by drawers, at high prices, and where tho grants have never been applied for by either drawer or purchaser. Such Jots have reverted to the State, and can be grant. «*d by any one applying for them. But the tenant in possession, if any one apply for a grant at the time lie does, has tho preference, andean get tho grant. Lot no one be deceived by reports—the law is daily oxer.uling, and will be executed in strict accordance With its provisions! man RSi Moors, our *"• ■ T . y ” U conformitv to A. nr.vi.lon. of the Act. r..u»uiin* ivdl.r. mil iiiiwrooi ir«it*r«.

Wo thought that we wore to have Ti xas—and Texas to strengthen lie South—that Oregon, and the North West, were in good hands, negotiations being then pending with Great Britain, respecting them. Ilence, wo felt surprised, then we noticed tho blustering tone of Mr. Polk, con- terning Oregon—and woleltlon, if Iris policy weresuc- omIuI, that the South—the deceived South—would need tlitlle more territory In balance the power which Oregon nouli give to antt slacery States. But as we bad no kind in making Mr. I’olk, President, wo determined to await events, and see to whore it ail would lead—and widow think, from tho lights before us,that it is very M*'ble it may all end in WAR. We will state why, and close. Every one conversant with the political news of the day,knows full well, that to Mr. Calhoun was eubmit- led this very Oregon question—and it is well known loo, from Mr. Calhoun*, previously expressed views, that it was in safe hand*, lie was, in fact, negotiating in relation to it, when Mr. Pm k was preparing his in - lugural to read from tho capitol to the people, in which to notified the world that all America was to be annex, etll'itlic United States, and that ho would see to it!!— for ilits was his meaning, if not his language. But Mr.Calhoun's views, statesmanlike as they are ac- knowletlged to be, did not suit “young Hickory,” and to was unccremonintHly dismissed. Oregon ho wil| tove, war or no war, Texas, or no Texas—whether it •trengtlien the South, or whether it weaken the South —whocares 1 Not Mr. Polk, lie is President! Noticing these events, we were not taken by surprise when we saw the action of the British Parliament, up. <wMr. Polk's inaugural. Certainly, to say the least of it, the President could have expressed himself in terms not quitq so offensive to a power, that was dis- playing every disposition to settle differences between *to two Nations, in relation to Oregon, amicably. There * w no need at all for the blus'er, and unless Great Bri- tem assume a tnore hostile attitude than she now as- i,o need for war. But wo fear tho imprudence °f Mr. Polk, ai l( j believe that we shall be involved, if •Winwar,in unpleasant difficulties with Foreign na- honeduring his whole administration. We need a wise ,oan ' ,l place, and the South will almost unanimous* tywyso, ere twelve months of his administration have pused away. We fear too, the leaders of the party that *Wrol Mr. Polk’s actions. We can see—and who, I half an eye, cannot see ?—that most of them are 0fWar corne weal or woe. They are as ready to make .one upon unjust, as upon just grounds, and will have it, fullness and temerity can effect that end. Let the f*°ple look to this matter seriously, for they will be call- •^Upon to do tho fighting, while their leaders are at Wa»h, l*iom Brazil.

The di(fi :uliy that exited between the United Slates’ and Brazilian authorities, hi reference to the brig Porpoise, had been amicably adjusted. Convention of the People to nominate a Candi date lor Governor. , The following, from the “Southern Courant.” at Washington, Wilkes County, speaks our sentiments in relation to a Convention to nominate a candidate for Governor, and to attend to such other matters as may he brought before it lor consideration. We also notice I that the Wings of McIntosh county have nominated • Governor Crawford, as their candidate for Cover* * nor, at the ensuing election — blit have also passed | a resolution appointing O. C. llapkins, James I Walker, and John W. Houston, Esqrs., delegates to the Convention which will assemble here. We look, therefore, upon the question of a Convention as settled. And we hope soon to hear thatcrery county in the State has appointed delegates to attend it. Since writing the above, \Ve have seen the Savan nah Republican of the 3d inst., in which the Edit- itors assign many good reasons why the Convention should convene on the 1st Monday in July next, in. stead of the 4<h Monday in June. We, also notice that the same day is fixed upon by the Columbus Enquirer, and we have every reason to believo that it will bo an acceptable dayiotho people everywhere in the State. Let it then be understood that the People’s Convention will assemble in this place on the 1st Monday in July next t to nominate their candid date for Governor of Georgia. [Know THE SOUTHERN COURANT.] Our next Governor.—Convention or no Convention. There seems to be considerable contrariety ot senti ment m the Wing press ol Georgia, on the subject of holding a Convention to nominate a candidate lor gover nor. It can but be gwl itying to every Wing in the State to know, that tins diversity of opinion arises not from any discord in the ranks of the party, but the very Ainivcrsalily and harmony of its views. All, to a man, are in lavor of the re-election of the present incumbent. It is thought that a Convention is unnecessary to Hum iliate one who is already nominated in every uuc whig heart. We venture an expression ol our opinion with delerencc, when there are others more competent to judge of the proprieties of the cise than ourse.ves.— Bui it seems to us, that it would be best to conform to ihe long established custom of holding Conventions. This is not exactly a suitaulu time for departing from the usages ol the past. Let us afford no opportunity io those ol our opponents who might be disposed to act unfa rly, to use the omission of a formal nomination against us. Those who have been in tho habit ot tlie «ppe»r.nc. _ , lure of Mdsle'—intemtinc not only from th. foot that the aeen. ».* in one of our Hoot hern eitie*. .0 fraught with object! of admiration and prolific of circumstance* well worthy of honorable publicity ; but from the pe culiarity of its nature, and the forcible manner in which it evinced that tho source from whence it derived its or igin, was ail inexhauiOable reservoir of wit, accompani ed with well.pointed sarcasm, as well as of the tnore strengthening qualities of the Aristotlean “labor liniae." Its intent was doubtless to entertain the literati with its comments upon fashionable life, as well as to encourage ihe gaiety and sociability of languishing society.— Whether its force of ability and reflection has effected tho hoped-for influence, is to bo, and lias been answered by tiio taciturn attention of iliose to whom it is address ed. It is with regret that I have seen that perceution has failed to teach the fair Adele that “similarity of feel- mg in connection with similarity ot design,” as regards some precedent, might meet with a similarity of recep tion. Though prompted, doubtless, by purity of motive, this article has not mot with universal approbation as can evidently be remarked in i'.s effects upon those who have suffered by its ungenerous reflections. I would, therefore, call the attention of Adele and beg you to unburden yourseif, for a moment, of this sarcastic and burlesqueingdisposition, to lend n “dil'gent ear” to the council of sage experience, and he not offended, tor whoso lovetli instruction, lovotli wisdom { but “whoso hatetli reproof is unwise.” Ex animodicam. trg° meum camtorem ienosce, cl si pm meoconsilio tie gralus s ?s. In truth it aflords me great pleasure to witness the inno cent hilarity of children, but renders me extremely so’* batons to see tho young and thoughtless exposed to publ.c condemnation and liability of inculcating the animosity of peaceful neighbors. Now, Adele, I am compelled to believe, reluctantly, from the import of your communication, that you aro inclined to disturb the “oven tenor” of the good man’s way, and excite d i*»- conlent among t hose who once enjoyed pleasure from the undisturbed etaie of their own employment. And nmv why so ungenerously tear asunder all tin? fond ties aud sweet endearments of precious friendship, with ruthless caprice, reckless of consequences, enter the sacred sanctuary of peace and assail thine harmless friends with public, personal reflections, which, ol a 1 evils, are the most obnoxious, from tho fact that they have a ten- deucy to exhibit our frailties and unenviable qualities to dame Gossip — and thereby subjecting us to many incon veniences, and depriving ns of many associations. Or, if fortune has failed to lavish her prodigalities upon you as regards that symmetry of figure which might enable you to vie with the brighiest siars “of Grecian Statua ry,” why so enviously a-sail the more favored aud inveigh against that which you desire, yet can not ob tain? Why warn circumspect and cautious woman against the attractions of some pol shed Adonis, when you yourself possess such a glow of feeling? Or why exhibit to publicity through tho medium ot the Press, “the free and artless manners” of some retiring M ss, whose innumerable and desirable blandishments emit more brilliancy and secure more admirers in those cir cles which can appreciate the gifts of natures* fairy hand, than in thy sognuistical invective and satirical contumely? Truly, Adele, this is so uuknightly. that if “Fortune had made you a man,” in the chtvalric days of Castille nod Arragon, the flowers of errantry would have proscribed you as unworthy of their court. Now l feel that this is not from a want of sentiment and love; tor that ’'devoted affection” which you p'ofcss in your communication guarantees that the same can easily and readilv he tendered to all who “bask in the sunshine” of your acquaintanceship. Now, gentle Reader, if it suggested to your mind why such an indi>criminate at tack upon personal qualities has been made; let not anger induce you to resort to unpremeditated means of reparation ; but let tho result of tins ungenerous inter- nexion bo 1 hv guide, and teach you that temerity aud rashness seldom fail to receive their merited retribu tion. And a farewell to thee, Adele; may success at tend thee m thy laureate career; hut let reflection in tune to come influence your action as well as motive , and may “consistency,” which is of truth a jewel, be tb.y Bethlehem amid the dangers of Public Opinion.

Editors—Yesterday we accompanied some friends to the s lore to see Mr. Bryant oft’, who has just started for England, to be absent about six months. As he stood on tho deck of the *team boat that was to con vey him to iho ship, with a boquet of flowers in his handsome lady had sent him, three cheers were sent up from the shore, which were answered from tho boat a* she wheeled away. It was a beautiful d.iy and a gomle wind from the west seemed blowing on purpose to waft him on his destined course. The snip Liver- pool layabout a mile out in the bay at anchor, and a.] were on board aud every thing ready lo sail about 2 o' clock, but just as everyone was expecting to hear the orders to weigh anchor, the Captain came out on deck and began to slick up his nose and smill'the air like a wild horse that smelt danger nigh, aud then turning on ins heel, bluntly said, “We shall not sail till to-morrow at 10 o’clock.” The wind had quietly hauled round to the east and was blowing as blandly and pleasantly right up the narrows as it it were doing the most inno cent and proper tiling in the world. But Mr. Bryant had taken his farewell once, and he would not repeat it, so he remained on the vesstd all the afternoon and eve ning, and we presume is there yet, for the wind is still east, lie goes to recruit his health, aud fetch back his mind from the strain (ho last political campaign has laid upon it. We are hoping every year to see him aban don fhe news pa i>er press and devote tho rest of his life to literature. We have a claim on Inmnsa poet which he is hound to fulfil, lie has done enough as a pol it i- enn, but not enough as a poet. Yet amid all his occu pations, lie finds time to write some, lie has recently finished two sweet fugitive pieces, not yet published. The annual exhibition of"our Academy of Design has commenced, aud among a vast number of daubs, there are a few paintings that do credit to our artists. Du rand and (.'ole stand at the head of landscape painters, in this country, both beautiful yet quite different. Mr. Cole strives after splendid effects and succeeds, but fin ishes less perfectly. Durand, on the contrary, seeks a perfect whole and blends the completeness ol every part with the harmonious effect of tho entire piece. Mount is our Hogarth, with his keen perception of the comic in nature. The two Wiers are also admirable paint ers. There is no statuary tins year in the exhibition. Crawford lias one design in bosso relievo, lie is pro bably the best executor in bosso relievo that wo have, lie is now engaged on a design tor tfie Washington j Monument, so long talked about in our city papers.

An officer being sent for, the stranger was taken before Justice John D. Clarke and commuted to jail for safekeeping and fur ther examination.

There were three inodes by which u title might be acquired to a country like the Ore gun ; tlie fust was by ancient discovry ; the second, by treaty; and the third, discovery, ancient ur modern, followed up by occupuiiou and aettlement. lie then entered into a statement for the purpose of showjug, that if the title of Oregon rested on ancient discovery, England could nut iu a cl aim far Mipe riorlo that of the United Stales; ami if it rested on treaty, we imd a claim that was undeniable, whilst tlmtofthe United Stales had no ground whatever to stund oil, and that if it rest ed on modern discovery, the discovery ol ihe Columbia,maile, curried on uml authorised by regular officers of the British Government, and the subsequent settlement of the territory surrounding it hv British subjects, cave us a title which the American Government could not displace.

The Government of President Polk had been very recentlv ap pointed, and no diplomatic communication, us firms lie wax informed, had taken place with it. lie thought it highly pro bable that Mr. Packenlmni would have continued with tin- present Government the negotiations which he had rommeiie- tnl with the last; but lie had no iafortnution on the subject.
