Now what relianoecan be placed upon such a writer 1 Who doth believe hia report? And yet, the prcssca reporting Mr. McAllister re-publish all over the State these article*, and are endeavoring to make tho people- believe them I Never, bolore, were there such bare bced attempts to deceivo! But the people must not be deceived, and for this pur- •ose, w* will mske a plain statement of facts in refer- aoce'to the Poor School Fund—and the fund for tho payment of Teachers, in 1842 and 1843—of which this writer appears to know nothing, relying upon his ima gination for h is facts. 8 The Poor School Fund was distributed in l814,tothose c ountie* that made Reports to the Executive. “Pinoy Woods,”|as ho appears to know so much, ought cer tainly to have known this. Ignorance, he cannot be charged with. And his omission to mention it, we must set down as an intentional ono, in strict keeping with his other efforts to deceive and mislead the peo ple. But the debts due the TEACHERS for services ren- dered in 1842, and 1843, is quite another aflhir. These are to bo paid out of the proceeds arising from the granting of reverted land*. It was in October last, that these lands reverted—but it was not until tho grant fees got down to 9500, that a single lot, of the late re version, was granted—and but one lot si that price was granted. No fund of any considerable amount was real ized until the 1st day of July last, when the foes wero reduced to 8100—but previous to this, the Governor reasonably anticipating that a large fund would be in the Treasury, after the 1st day of next September, when the fees will be 825—issued an order, which was di rected to the Trustees of the Inferior Court of each county in the State, calling upon them to furnish him with the amounts due the Teachers, whom he proposed to pay off on the 22d of September—this being at as early a day as he could possibly pay these accounts. And we are pleased to say, with the fund already on hand, and what will bo paid in on the 2d September, he will be able to do so. As for his having these accounts previous to Novem ber 1844, it ie all fudge. “Piney Woods” asserts what he knows nothing about, or wilfully misrepresents; But if he had, they could not haye been paid off with out the means, and for the means the Governor is in debted to WHIG LEGISLATION. Why, lot us ask this writer, did not the Democratic Legislature of 1842, appropriate the proceeds of the reverted lands, to the payment of the Teacher’s demands 1 We will wliis. per it in his ear, as we do not expect an answer; It was because they cared nothing for the Teachers, and nothing for the poor whom this worthy class of citizens were laboring to benefit. All their acts go to prove the fact—for they had previously deprive ! them, by their legislation, of every dollar almost that bad been set apart as a Poor School Fund. In 1839, they gave it all to the Central Bank, but took care to reserve to the University of Georgia, its share. The College' where the wealthy could send their sons for instruction’ was provided for, but the POOR were most heartlessly deprived of what was religiously set apart by our fore fathers, for their advantage. Shame upon such con duct! We will notice one more attempt of “Piney Woods” to deceive, and then leave him "in all his glory” to be dealt with by the people. He quotes from the Public Laws of 1843—page 44—section 5th, the following to sustain a position which be assumes, “The Justices of the Inferior Courts of each county, shall ascertain the amount due to teachers of poor chil dren in their respective counties, for services rendered in the years 1842 and 1843” And here in the middle of a sentence he stops! Why- —to deceive as usual! But we will give the whole sen. tence, and then briefly moot the point which he pre sent*. “That the Justices of tho Inferior Courts of each county, shall as soon as practicable, ascertain the a- mount due to the teachers of the poor children in their respective counties for services rendered in the year 1842 and 1843, in strict compliance with the act assented to on the ] Oth December, 1840, regulating that subject, and report the same to his Excellency, the Governor, who shall cause the same to paid as soon as practicable out of the proceeds of public lands, that revert to the State, which paymehts shall be made by the agency of the Justices of the Inferior Courts in the several coun ties." Why did not “Piney Woods” quote the whole of the sentence! Why did he garble1 Was he afraid that a reference to tho act of 1840,, (the act of a Whig Leg. i*latur'.%) providing for the education of the poor, would be referre'd to! But be this as it may, we will let it pass, and iu reply to his query of Schoolmaster (who will pardon us if we anticipate him) state—that GoveR' nor McDonald know of the existence of these ac< counts, but while recommending the State College, hi hi* message to tho Legislature, to their protection and patronage lie did not think proper to remember the poor. Hereafter, if necessary, we .shall again refer to this subject. Since writing the above, we have seen “Piney Woods’" last number in Ihe Constitutionalist of tho 7th inst. We must give to 1C special notice, as much as we dislike troubling our reao'“rs with his sinuosities, hie “bendings in, and his carvings ojt.” But our reply must be as brief as wo can possibly ma.be it. To his remark that thi* paper is editen by another, than ouraslf, we can slalo to him that we assume its conduct, and whatever appears under Ihe editorial head we are responsible for. It matters little to us though, to whom ’Piney Woods’ attributes the articles in reply" to him—lnt him deal in fools, and ho will have no cause complaint, His position in relation to the Public Debt he reas. sorts. We havo alroady explained this subject to our trader*, and with them wo arc content to leave it. But onr antagonist quotes from tho Report of Messrs. "fliLUrs,Kenan and Meriwether, wo will call,hi* attention to tho following from the eimo Report, and then let him scttlo the question of veracity to be deter mined between us.

It was under the control of General Nelson, and the Com mittee ray, that “the lose arose exclusively in the first quarter of the year.” Mark that, ‘Pinny;’ and mark also, what they say about the remaining three quarters, when it was under tho charge of Mr. Redding! It, say they, "SHOWS A PROFIT UPON ITS LABOR FOR THAT TIME OF 86.744 52." These are facts, which all the “wiring t'n, and wiring out” of poli ticians cannot disprove. But “Piney Woods” ventures a little furthor in his assertions. He says that, “I had aaiorted that the Whig legislature of 1843 exceeded in expenditurea Ihe Democratic legislature of 1842,458,162. I'hia statement, likewise,the Georgia Journal denies. Itit would not be trespassing ton much upon the columns of a newspapor, I might hava published every appropriation made in 1842, and in 1843, that the public might judge between us. 1 refer those who have double to the public laws of (hose years—and they will find my assertions correct. Now, we will accommodate “Piney Woods,' as he does not wish “to trespass upon the columns of a newspa per;” and wo will show to what a different conclusion every one else must come that examines the Public Re- cords. But before we give the items, wo will state that “Piney,” in a previous article, figured in this wise.— He puls down the expenses and expenditures of the Democtatic legislature of 1842 at $169,055 00; he then affirms that the Whig legislature of 1843 exceed ed that amount by 858,162 00! And when a different showing is made by tho Whig press, he coolly says that he does not wish “to trespass upon the columns of a newspaper," or ho "might have published every appropri ation," but that upon a reference to the public laws, they would find his “assertions correct.” Well, we will do what this writer neglects to do. We will publish tho expenses and appropriations of the Legislature of 1842, that the roader may seo how very far “Piney Woods” has missed his mark. Here they are !

A mere trifle, though, wo preauinp, if it benefits Mr. McAllister, or elects a United States Senator, or ef fects any other good for the party ot which he is now an active member! It is useless for us to say more ; we have exposed the bold attempt to deceive the people, and cheat them out of their votes, and in so doing, will leave “Piney Woods” to bo dealt with by them as they, in their judgment, think best. “C LI N C H THE N A I L.” In the above, we have shown what were the expend! tures of the Democratic Legislature of 1842, to wit 8226,017 07. Now we will "clinch the nail,” and show how largely the expenditures of the political year 1843 under Governor McDonald's administration, ex ceeded those of the political year 1844, under Governor Crawford. The Legislature of 1843 appropriated, to pay arrearages due by Governor McDonald's adminis tration, the following sums: To pay the debts of the Penitentiary, $32,000 00 To pay arrearages chargable to Con tingent Fund, 15,000 00 To pay arrearages on Military Fund, 3,000 00 $50,000 00 Add this $50,000 00 to the $226,047 07, and it makes $276,047 07, which is the actual expense of Governor McDonald’s political year 1843. Then deduct the $50,000 00 from “Piney Woods’ ” estimate of the expenses of Governor Crawford’s polit ical year 1844, and it will leave $177,217, making a difference of $99,830 07 in favor of Governor Crawford What a difference! In one year, $98,630 07 saved to the State, by the economy and good management of a Whig Legislature and a Whig Governor ! These are some of the fruits of which we boast, and if we mistake not the character of the people of Georgia, they too, at the ballot box, will show, that such conduct merits their approbation. ALABAMA ELECTIONS. The election news from Alabama is from a few coun. ties only, and those Whig counties. It is probable that Gen. Hilliard (Whig) is elected to Congress. The returns are much the same as they were in November last—neither party gaining or losing much. WHIG MEETING IN BALDWIN. Millkdgeville, Aug. 8th, 1845. At a large and respectable meeting of the Whigs of Baldwin, held at the Court-house this day, at 12 o'clk., on motion, George Murfh, Esq. was called to the Chair, and Thomas F. Greene appointed Secretary. The Chairman having stated the objects of the meet ing to be the selection of delegates to a Convention re. presenting the Whigs of the 24th District, forthenom- illation of a candidate fur the Senate, to be held at Carr's Mills on the 16th inst,; and also the selection of g candidate lor representative front this county, Bunj. r f- Bethune, Esq. presented to the consideration of the mOv't-nS'tl ,e following list of delegates ; George Murph. Charles Ennis, Wm. H. Scott, ttenj. Myrick, Lewis Bagiev, David G. Gibson, Jehu Edge, A. Tor. ranee. Joel Tuckr.'r, John S. Stephens, James Dickson, George W. Butts, Robert McComb, Miller Grieve, and Nathan Hawkins, whjch was on motion unanimously adopted. Ou motion, Resolved, Thai should any ot the dele- galos appointed by this meeting be unabio to attend, those in attendance shall have the right of rilling such vacancy. On motion, the meeting then proceeded to select by ballot a candidate fur Representative. On counting out tho ballots, it appeared that IVERSON L. IIAR. RIS, Esq., was with great unanimity selected as their candidate, who in a brief address returned his thanks for the honor, and stated to the meeting his views upon various subjects in which the people of this county were deeply interested. On motion, the meeting then adjourned. GEORGE MURPH, Chairman. Thomas F- Greeni, Secretary. aHPRiapcTtM Sir:—It is usual with a polit* poopkt, to welco** the arrival among them, of rtspectsble ■(Rutgers, and to tender them the civilities of social Ilf*. 1 would con tribute tny mile to perpetuate this laudable custom — and to add another instance to the admitted hospitality of tho community in which we live. Tito last number of tho Federal Union, announces ■ fiat it,"-ha* changed hands"—and contains a summary of the moral and political uodo, by which its course will te directed, under ihe guidance of the gentlemen who have succeeded to tho abdicated chair editorial. How ever puro may bo the motives that have prompted the undertaking, they will booflen painfully romindod.thai thorns are interwoven with the flowers, with which fan cy sometimes decks tho seat they have chosen. Am that, like the bed of Procustes, if it does not fit then' they tuny be subjected to tho torture of being forced t lit it. Yet in promising “the bearing and courtesy i gent lenten,* in the conduct of the discussions into whic. wo shall be necessarily drawn,” they havo givon a nobl pledge to tho public, which their reputation is security will be honorably redoomed. A firm adherence loth resolution, in practice, will constitute an era in tl history of the Journal of which they are now proprh tors—and to gentlemen of theirerudition.andquickner of apprehension, I need not suggest, the happy influent- 1 on Ihe political literature of the day, it is calculated 1 t exert. Regarding this course of public utility, 1 chee fully subscribe tu this articlo of their creed, and wfi t every possible disposition to emulate so worthy an e. ample, I wish them success in their undeavors toco - roct the licentiousness of tho press, to elevate tl t standard of its morality, and widely to extend the the • tre of its usefulness. - But if I have found much to admire in the exposilit t - of their moral code, given by the new Editors of ti. • Federal Union, I am forced to digsent from the poll ■ ical dactrincs it is their purpose to propagate, as we as their manner of defending them. The imputation t odious tenets, easily refutable, and made for tho pur poso of being refuted, is a stale artifice, unworthy c intellectual men to employ. The public mind is not* easily satisfied. The people, who are intelligent, an though not all lawyers, aro accustomed to inves tigatc the profoundest political subjects, do no conceive that argument is refuted by confident as eerlion—nor facts established by evidence, disproved b bold denial. Yet this is the kind of answer, (rcasonin, it cannot be called) to which the Federal Union is driv en for want of better—to the array of facts before th people demonstrating the wisdom of the present Admin istration; and which disprove their truth as little a does the testimony of “old Ezekiel Polk's bones," tha have been subpeoued by the Federal Union, to give cv idcucc in its cause. Which, by the way, is rather a ominous co-incidence; disclosing the fate pending ow that cause, when the grand inquest of the people slta pronounce their solemn verdict on its merits, in Oclt her next. I havo not leisure, even should the inclination exist to follow the Federal Union through the mazes of it declamation, issuing like “rising columns of smok from the creative brain” of its Editors, with whicl they attempt to darken objects too luminous for the vision, if allowed to remain in the pure atmosphere t light- The task, like some of their own periods, woul. be labor without end. To one or two prominent point- I shall for the present, confine my strictures. Wit “many shows of Beeming” fair, they admit a perfet equality of patriotism, and intellectual qualification- between their Candidate, and Mr. Crawford—and wit: this concession, affirm, “that the people must look t their political principles, for their guide,” in selecting between them. I mean to surpass them in candor, whei for the sake of argument, I admit a supposition so con trary to fact, as intellectual equality of the candidates. I will, then, suppose fur a moment, Mr. McAllister tu be equally possessed of the essential qualities for a good Governor; that he is patriotic—devoted to. and identified with, the interests of Georgia—and having a reach of intellect equal in all things to Mr. Crawford. Yet does not the Federal Union depart from its affected candor, when it concludes from this, its own statement of the question, that tho people should look alone (o “political principles,” as the criterion of fitncBS, to di rect their choice? Are not works to be taken into llte account? What avails the possession of abstract, the oretical principles, be they ever so sound, unless their utility has been demonstrated by actsl These gentle men, learned as they are, need not he cited to the au thority which declares, that “faith (or principle?) with out works, is dead"—of no efficacy. But admitting the tosition to be correct, I desire to be informed, what jotter criterion of sound principles can be produced, than their salutary effects, flowing directly from the operations of the government they influence ? If, there fore, all other things between the candidates be equal, as is conceded—if the scales hang evenly balanced, inclining neither way,—ought not the mind attempered to justice, or desirous of safety, ta throw into the seal* of Crawford, tho good deeds ho has done for the State, and let their weight decide the question of superior claim? Hut tho friends of Mr. McAllister insist, that tho people sliuuld give him their confidence in udvnnco, and take him upon trust. They stand sponsors at the christening—and promise, and vow, in his name, tha’ he will do wondrous things, if elected Governor. Bc< sides, that the people of Georgia iiave proved, by bitter experience, itow iittlo reliance may bo placed in the promises of democratic candidates, for the office ot Governor, I ask, is there any mind so dark, any Geor gian so ignorant, as r.ui to perceive the glaring absurd ity of opposing a supposition, which no man can prove, to facts which prove themselves ? The people of Geor gia are urged to brand Mr.Crawford with the mark ol their displeasure, to turn him out of an office he has managed to their satisfaction and lasting benefit; and they are modestly invited to elect Mr. McAllister; tu entrust their destinies in the hands of a man but liitl- tried, of doubtful qualifications—and whoso officia" conduct, so far as tried, has hitherto escaped censure only because it has passed without notice. Lovers ot their country aro incited to prefer the imputed good in. tent ions ot Mr. McAllister, to the admitted equally good inteiUions of Mr. Craw-lord, backed by a series o: wise and comprehensive measures, that have improved the condition of our people at home, and elevated the. character of our Stale abroad. With a degree of folly that nothing can account fur, short of party phrenzy, they are gravely exhorted to reverse a homely, but time honored maxlin, practised even by children, and aro advised to throw away the bird in ham), tor one in the bush! It is impossible that an intelligent people can submit to be so duped, A largo proportion of them yet prefer country to party; and possess understand ings too clear, not to distinguish through the mists ol misrepresentation, tho foaiurcs of sound principles, ot which wholesome works are at once the evidence and the fruits. "But granting,” (says the Federal Union,) "as true, all the merit claimed for Governor Crawford; what has he done, that Mr.McAllister or any other intelligent dem ocrat, would not have done, in pursuance of legislation which he was bound to obey?” Without commenting fan- ther on tho quibble of arraying the supposition of what fine things Mr. McAiiislcr would do, against the facts of what Mr. Crawford has done, I respectfully ask. why were not these things accomplished during the several democratic administrations to which the people entrus ted power? Why was not the Central Bank arrested in its career of destructiveness ? Why was it permit ted, nay, encouraged, to inundate the country with its bills, which the people were forced to receive at par value, and to pay nut at a loss of 25, 37, and even 50 cents in the dollar 1 Why was the Penitentiary permitted to be a drain upon the public purse, to the tune of twelve or fourteen thousand dollars per annum? Why was the credit of the State allowed to remain so depreciated, that Georgia became a bye-word and re proach among her sister States, and the nations of Eu rope ? Surely the article was hastily penned, or the intelligent Editors would havo felt the bitter satire on their party, conveyed in the proposition. Had they provided no “legislation” adequate to correct those evils; were not their Governors "intelligent;” or did they not feel “hound to obey” it ? In their zeal to un dervalue the services of Governor Crawford, and tho Whig party, who did provide by legislation for the re- detnplion of the Slate front insolvency and disgrace, they have instituted a comparison that conducts to con clusions by which their friends will scarcely acknow ledge iltetU6olves complimented. They may well ex claim, with honest Jack, of F.ilstail memory, “call you this backing your friends ? a plague on such backing !” The people of Georgia have a right to demand, and to know, Itow it happened, that during the tenor twelve years of democratic rule, their interests were not bet ter protected, since they now havo the declaration of the leading organ of I hat parly, that to do what Governor Crawford and a single Whig Legislature iiave effected iu less than 2 years, was an affair so easy, that "any intel ligent democrat” might have done it I Will the peo ple regard these former failures, as the guarantee of r u- ture success? If it was so easy to bo done, they will ask, why wasn't it done then? Were our democratic rulers treacherous or stupid 1 Nor will they he satis- tied, with a reference to "old Ezekiel Polk's bones,” for an answer, Tho truth is, tho democratic loaders find themselves cornered—placed in a dilemma from which no prospect of escape presents itself, except by amusing the public mind with false issues, and diverting their thoughts from home concerns, to matters in which they Iiave |na• remote apd cwiUiigsiii interest. Whilst, its .psrty nilhtbfl manta whom sba-will entrust her per, r, their thoughts, their fee ing*, wsre not at home, son, she oUght not to power, iu Goorgia. laboring for the interests they were appoint ed to guard—but like busy bodies in privato life, were ever ready to intermeddle with the concerns pf others, at the oxpenso of their own. Whereby the affair* ot our own State sunk to a condition of pitiable distress— rendered more incurable by their awkward attempts to relievo them. The phenomenon of an onorgo'ic Ex ecutive, applying the power of hia intellect singly to tho service of the State ; and by tho aid of judicious legislation, infusing vigilance, and activity, and fideli ty, into every department of the government; increas ing the prosperity of the State at homo, and maintain ing her credit abroad—has struck so fearfully upon their faculties, that the democratic apostles arc unwilling to believe Ihe evidence of tlioir own senses. But the peo ple sec, and believe. And unless they can be again de luded, the democratic aspirants nre too much of pro. phots not to foresee, that tho days of their power have passed. Hence the eft'orts to distract the public mind on foreign subjects. What has Texas, or Canada, or Nova Scotia, or Oregon, to do with the election of a Governnrfor the State of Goorgia? Will tho imme diate acquisition of those territories, impart wisdom to the leaders of democracy, whose blunders reduced the State from affluence, to poverty ? or will a delay in do ing so, disarm Gov. Craw-lord of his abilily to continue ‘.lie prosperous career of his administration ? In our anx iety to fraternize with tho lone star just glimmering on our Western horizon, shall we neglect to provide for the prosperity of Georgia, ono of the glorious constellation of tho revolution ? Will Georgians assemble on the first Monday iu October, to elect a Governor for far dis tant Oregon, a country so little known that its correct tosition is not delineated upon any map—and whose star tas not yet beamed on any civilized land—or will they assemble to elect a Governor for their own Georgia? Let the people answer these questions with their usual discernment—nor suffer themselves to be blinded to their true interests at home, by tho smoke of distant con Aids, tn which they have no immediate interests that should engage them. Let them remember that democrat ic government brought upon them theevilsof a drrangt d currency—a ruinous Penitentiary — high taxes—broken banks—heavy slate debts-depreciated credit-.mid hlem* Bhed character—with all the others that follow in the* train. Let them remember that the policy and meas ures of the present administration, have re-atiiinatcd the expiring energies of the Slate, and placed her on an eminoncc, from which she can survey surrounding na tions, without feeling reproach in every glance directed towards her. Finally, let them remember, that to oust Governor Crawford in order to make way for Mr.McAllister, wore to invite a return to that ruinous system ot misrule, front which they were delivered iu October 1843. Lot llieso things bo impressed on their minds, and recorded in their hearts—and let every free man cast his vote with a conviction that tho best inter ests of Georgia aro suspended oil the result. Sir! I have hastened to render this early mark of at- tention to the novitiate Editors of the Federal Union, as a token of tny respect, IcBttliey might feel slighted by delay. If my first salutation is less courtly than it should be, 1 trust my good intentions may bo received in extenuation. Hoping to atone by assiduity, for any mental deficiency, or dullness of composition, I offer this as a prologue to future civilities of thesamo sort. I am too inconsiderable an individual,! to expect from them the honor of a reply—yet I cannot do less than tender the assurance, that in my humble efforts to re mark on tho effusions of minds so accomplished, as their own, it shall be tny endeavor not to lose sight of those rules of decorum, for which, not less than tlicniselvos, I profess tube an advocate. Although an obscure indi vidual cannot hope to emulate the fluency of practised writers, of nostnall professional reputation—yet, when tho spirit moves me, a voice shall occasionally be heard in defence of Goorgia, and iter faithful servants, from the Oaken Woods of BALDWIN. "The writer, of course, takes it for granted that the "bold /ace” extract, from the “Pioneer," with the uccuinpcnictl ed itorial remarks in the last Federal Union, was not the work of the gentlemen, whom lie now addiessea. |FOR THE GEORGIA JOURNAL.] WOMAN SHOULD BE PROTECTED. Imperfect legislation marks Ihe history of well nigh every country that boasts a national existence. Than this, no fact is more indisputably true. Every nation, from tho foundation of tho Assyrian, to the destruction of the Roman empire, and from thence upward, attests tho truth of this melancholy fact. Notwithstanding this imperfection, the mmd of man is ever active in search of those means, by the right application of which tho greatest amount of happiness may be secured. Tho eye of the observer fails not to discover, while scanning the body politic, that an insidious disease is preying upon its vitals, whose corrosive qualities threa ten the constitution, health and happiness of many of its fairest subjects; and discovering it, it philanthropic, lie labors to counteract, if nut entirely to destroy its unhappy effects. Unfortunately, however, in the charac- lers of selfishness and ignorance, lie encounters a for midable opposition ; and this unreasonable opposition is the cause why the wants and exigencies of society have so long been disregarded, and the grievances of individuals so unwillingly redressed. It is a principle iu jurisprudence that law is enacted to guard the weak against the oppressions of the strong. This principle, however, is not always regarded, and tho weak aro frequently made the helpless victims of a ruthless power. We believe that sound principles of public policy require a change in the law regulating the cntailment of estates. We also bnlieve that Geor gia legislators, guided by a true appreciation of llic rights of married women, will consider the injustice and hardship of some of the principles of the English com mon law so deeply grafted into our jurisprudence, and substitute in their place the equity ot the civil law — that our mothers, wives and daughters may receive that protection which justice and reason award them. It is a painful seem.- to witness such opposition as lias been arrayed against a measure so wholesome and marry .him. An ingeuiuus writer remarks that this reason is fallacious. A man may bo ever so worthy, and yet not beyond the roach of accident or misfortune. To guard against these, with out Injury to Any porson, is tha object of the provision. When a woman marries, lot it be understood that her property is secured to her, and the children aho may have, and that i*. cannot be taken for the debts of her husband. lie may receive the profits, and have Ihe general control, hut the title he cam ot convey. We eltall now demonstrate tho necessity of a change in tho law of descents, from the unhappy consequences arising out ol tho cntailment of property under the law, as it obtains in Georgia ; and also, from the insecurity of the wife against future contingencies under this law. When a man marries a lady, ifslio have property, that property Is no longer hors but his, under tho present law. By the simple operation of law, she loses her le gal existence in the act of contracting marriage. Her right, therefore, to claim her property, is transferred ti him and lie is solo monarch of all she posssased befor covelure. Wlm can tell the infidelity of the human lienrt.or the fickleness of fortune! To-day, the hus band may be sober; tomorrow, he tnay waste his hours amid seem s of debauchery. To-day, prosperity may smile upon him; to-monnw, adversity may lower around him. Thus, we see at a glance, how insccuio woman is. wliilofortunc is so precarious. No! Laws should be passed to meet Ihe exigencies of society in it* various relations, and promote, so far as the adoption ol" beneficial laws are concerned, its permanent prosperity. Man, however provident, may be deceived. He may enter the field of speculation under the most favorable auspices-"may traffic shrewdly—yet misfortune's scath ing blast sweeps over him, and the properly he Ins is jeopardized. At another time, tho wife may remon strate, but vain will be that remonstrance. His will is her law. A mania for wealth seizes hint, and in his effoits to gain much, he loses all. Whore now is tho property llut costafatiier many hours of patient toil to accumulate—that iuedauglder might have a competen cy—that she might have a home from the polling s ortn —a mansion to dwell in. Gouo to the four winds of Heaven! Now who is she Once so gay and buoyant ,n her hopes. The despondent wife of an incautious husband. Thatcountenanco, once su bright, is now pule and wan. Her happiness iH immolated at the shrine o! disappoint- ment. “Another short step, the grave opens torocoivo her, and she sinks into its bosom.” Toll me not that there is an identity of interest—that what ho did was done for their mutual prosperity. ’Tib but j miserable subterfuge to avoid the force of the argument in favor of the woman’s law. No. There is no palliation for doing wiong. Woman should be protected in her right to private property. She should find a safeguard m the law. There let her find her guaranty against future exigencies, and all is well. A stronger argument for the enactment of this fate is, that it will benefit many, and injure none. Why take from a woman the right to hold property, and give it to the husband. Not be cause lie is more honest, or shrewd, in the manage ment of it—not because lie lias a superior claim to her property—but because some ancient Legislature said that we should have the undivided control of all the real and personal estate procured iu marriage. Why do gentlemen oppose ilio enactment of the Woman’s law? Do they loso any of their privileges by its en actment ! None—unless it be the privilege to squan der that which is not in fact theirs. Gcnticmcu may talk vauntmgly of their independence ; but w hat ra- tional gentleman thinks his independence sacrificed in shielding the wife against future contingencies.— When gentlemen can make it appear that we loso a single reasonable privilege by throwing around the do. mestic hearth the vegis of protection, then we will no longer contend that the patrimonial estate need be guaranteed to the wife and her children. Til. then we shall call upon parents to awake to the true interests of their daughters. Till then, we shall call upon Geor gia Legislators. Whigs and Democrats, to look to the past, and count the sufferings of thousands, growing out of an unwise entuilinent of property, and tn guard succeeding generations against like suffering and op pression. Tins accomplished, and Georgia shall stand proudly pro-euiinont among her sister .States—the patroness of female rights and a model worthy of imitation. J, L. C.

But this is, of all reasons, reader, the most supercilious and weak. It is virtually denying the progressive improvement of tiie human race. It is saying, three thousand years ago men were wiser than now—that the framers of the English Constitution, the old Britons and Saxons, had belter ideas of right and wrong than we have. They deny that experience is a teacher. And, judging from such ad captandum argu ments, and the pertinacity evinced in their mainten ance, wo would infer that no changes ever occur in the regulations of society, at all. But this is false.— Changes occur, even in the arts and sciences ; why not also in the laws regulating society! When Troy fought we heard the whistling javelin upon its bloody errand—we saw the Trojan lift tho spear and cast the lance. But now other and more destructive imple ments have superseded those weapons, and who dare say that tho changes in the art of war Iiave not had a happy eiTact upon the peace and happiness of the world? Indeed, were the engines of war tenfold as destructive! we should hear less of those bloody commotions a which the heart sickens and recoils. The sciences have undergone changes for the better. vVhere stood the Aristotilic philosophy a few ages since * Swaying a despotic power over tho minds of tho world. But a Bacon arose to change the dogmas of tlie day—Syllo gism gave way to induction, and man is now exploring a wider held in the arcana of nature, with a surer guide, than he ever presumed to walk upon, while syl. logism held its sway. Governments change. To go no further than our own, is proof of this. Once Me were colonists, swayed at the option of a heartless monarch,aud tamely submitting to the rigorous exactions of a pampered aristocracy. Now, wo aro free, prosper ous and happy. No oue denies that the change in our political relations wrought this result. If, therefore, for the advancement of public interests, it becomes ne cessary to cHcct a change in the customs o» the country, how much more necessary, if private interest demand that change. We flatter ourself that we have shown those uncompromising sticklers for the customs of so ciety, that change, at least at*limes, is necessary.
