Illustration of the evil effects of giving children
ardent spirits.
I am yet a young man, but I will tell you
what I have seen. I have seen—ami I can al
most fancy I now see—the village school house
and its green lawn, ou which forty or fifty robust
and active children were sporting in all the gaie
ty and recklessness of early youth. I had sever
al peculiar associates there, whom I often accom
panied to their respective homes. Of these,
some had pareuts who loved thu liquid poison,
and frequently put it to tho lips of their little
sons. Aud now, when I ask after tbeso same
once loved associates, where have they gone!
Alas! of several, I too well know the sad history.
Oue grew up a tippler; at eighteen was hold to
bonds in a large a.nouut, for a violeut personal
' attack on a highly respectable gentleman; fled
his nativo state, aad after a year or two of profli
gacy died by his own hand. His brother, who
was saved from the like course only by the mas
tery of another passion, avarice, which combat
ted for a time the strength of intemperance, has
at leugth under thirty gone down to the verge of
' the grave, over which ho now totters, with the
bottle in his baud. A third, though born to a
large property, tmd having the finest advantages
for obtaining an education, now drives a team—
a drunken wagoner—ou the samo road ou which
bis father’s coach usod to roll. Another runa
way from home at sixteen, aud is supposed to
have found a grave somewhere atnid the revolu
tions of South America. Another, ou his pas
sage from New Orleans to some northern port of
the United States, laid a plot for seizing tile ves
sel, rose upon the captain, was wounded, and fi
nally thrown blccdiug iuto tho sea, and perished.
These ail loved strong drink, aud I am convinc
ed imbibed their passion for it from tho example
of.their parents, and from being permitted to
drink the “leaviugsin the bottom of the glass.”—

When fashions arc worn out iu Paris, tho milli
ners send their antiquated articles to the north;
that is to Sweden aud Russia. A vessel deeply
laden with such merchandise, says a London pa
per, was run down in tho channel of St. 1‘eters-
burgh. Noxt day a Salmon was caught in the
Neva, dressed iu a white satin petticoat; and in
thosaue.net were too large cod-fish, with mus
lin handkerchiefs round their uocks. The sharks
and porpoises were observed iu gowus of the la
test taste; and hardly was there a fish that did not
display some of tho freshest Parisian fashions that
had ever visited the north.
Cholera Morbus—At tho sitting of the Acade
my of Science’of Prance, on the 29th of August
last, a letter was read from M. Chapofinier, which
stated that in India, an infusion of the leaves and
stolk9 of tho laurus camphor iu sweet oil, is suc
cessfully given for the cholera, and that this pre
paration may be imitated iu Prance, dissolving
about twelve grains of camphor in an ounce of
olive oil. This solution may bo used instead of the
Cajeput oil. A traveller iu India, who was twice
attacked by cholera, was cured by taking three

In consequence of the refusal of our Banks, a
short time past, to receive tho bills of the Bank of
Darien—why, we know not, but presume merely
inconlormity to some principle of Banking policy,
rather than any doubt of the solvency of the in
stitution—some little distrust of the bills wascxci-

tho discount on them is merely what is customa

Savannah Oct. 31.—By the ship William
Donald, arrived yesterday, we have received
Liverpool papers to the I7l’h of September inclu
sive, containing Loudon dates of. thu loth, and
Londou papers to the 14th. Their contents pos
sess not much interest.
Accounts from Poland to tho 27th August state,
that the main Polish army had retired withiu the
fortifications of Warsaw, after haviug sustained
a loss of 1400 or 1500 meuina rccounoissauce,
owing to tho imprudence of Col. Lcgallois, a
French officer. Two corps havo been detached
iuto the palatinates of Podlachia and Plozk. The
former, and the stronger, nuder the French Gen
eral Komariuo, is believed in Paris to havo ob
tained a signal victory over a portion of the army
of Rudiger. Oue good effect of these divisions
has been the introduction into Warsaw of large
supplies of provisions.
1 lie latest London paper says—“Tho 1 reports
from Poland do not coulirui tbc flattering accounts
received a couple of days ago through the Frcueh
papers, but state they are favorable to the Poles,

REMOVAL OF THE INDIANS.
Erie, Ala. October 13, 1831.—Mr. George S.
Gaines is at present actively engaged in making
the necessary arrange ineuto for the removal of a
part of the [Chociutvj Indians, aud in carrying
iuto effect that portion of tho treaty which is ne
cessary to be accomplished before the Indians can
emigrate. He lias succeeded in his endeavors
generally, and will .*. t nut in. a few days for the
re ndezvous on the Mississippi. Memphis is the
the place np|>ointeii to cross the Mississippi; it is
salii tube :hc best point. \\e understand that
there will h« about one hundred aud sixty wag
gons and teams employed, to carry the families
aad goods of the part that prefer to emigrate in
that manner. Many of the tenms havo already
arrived at the starting places. There will, it is
supposed, lie about five hundred that will emi
grate without any other assistance from Govern
ment, than that of having their ferriages paid, and
he supplied with provisions at each station, and a
bounty of ten dollars on their arrival at the West
ern Agency. There are about five thousand that
will start m .a few days. Small parties will oc
casionally follow after the main body, as there
areinnnv that.are anxiously waiting to have an
example, aud hear of the progress made by those
who may first emigrate. Some of the principal
captains are goiug; among the number, we have
heard thu Folsoms mentioned. Mushulatubbee
and Lafleur will not go the present season,. as
thoir intention is to remain until next fall, and at
that time it is thought thu great body of the na
tion will emigrate.
ffy 5 * The Vice President, it appears, has some
thing to say ifi the Eaton controversy; and fills,
accordingly, three or four columns of the Pendle

shall con it over, and if need be, give an abstract
of his article; but the subject having lost the
charm ol'novelty with the public, no new party is
like to be successful iu rendering it palatable. In
tho course of this document, we may state how
ever, that Mr, Calhouns en passant, administers a
gentle puli’ to the meritorious Gen. Green, and af
firms, what, under present circumstances, be can
hardly be serious himself, in believing, that the

, NEW MAP.—We have seen a beautiful map
of the Cherokee Country, prepared by John Be-
thuue, Surveyor General, and. in this business,
Agent ofthe Surveyors who, last summer, laid
oil that territory into sections and districts. It
shows very distinctly, the sections, distric ts, water
courses, Roads, Missionary stations. Mountains,
Gold Regions, &c. &c.; and the whole map is
finished in a beautiful stylo of engraving, hand
somely colored, and put up iu packet form. It
certainly deserves, and will doubtless receive, the
patronage it merits.—Gtorgia Journal.

Hugs in a shy irniy. We have seen no notice,
as we recollect, of a uewiy invented Steam En
gine, fur destroying Ltd tings. Persons, who
have hitherto “mad*, night hideous,” iu conse
quence of these tot mentors, may bless the inven
tor of steam, and go to sleep with a whole skiu.
The invention we are speaking of, “beats all na-

where these varmints have burrowed for centuries,
die steam engine removes them iu a twinkling.
Not a bug uor a nit can escape parboiling—at

hot water, and a fire kindled under it to keep it
bailing; whet, kept at tbc proper temperature,
[he steam issues forcibly from the nusr, which is
applied to the crevices whore the insects resort,
aud instantly destroys them. If the invention,
could be applied also to the riddance of some o-

Tho great body of the Troup party, say nine
teen twentieths of them, disclaim nullification,
aud will not believe that any of their leading
men are in favor of tlie doctrine. Their incre
dulity, though creditable to their friendship, is
not complimentary to their penetration—most ol
those leaders avowing nullification iu the absiracl,
and some admitting tlie present time to la' a pro
per juncture for its practical operation. It is true,
that when among their constituents, they usually
wrap up their sentiments in a kind of jargon
unintelligible to persons not versed in the techni
calities of law; but when at a distance frutn
home, they are less mystical, and when amongst
Kindred spirits unbosom themselves without re
serve—-nay, even endeavor to disseminate the o-
jmiiou abroad that the people of Georgia are
nutlifiers in feeling, as the following extract of a
letter to the editor of the Charleston Mercury,
under date of Philadelphia, September 30, ou the
subject of tlie Auti-Tarifl' Convention, shows:
“It may lie gratifying to you to know that our
little State (South Carolina) stands very high a-
mong the delegates. Tltero are some thorough
going nullificrs from Alabama. The DELE
GATES, from GEORGIA say that their ST ATE
is WITH us in FEELING."
Tho State of Georgia with the nulliferr of
South Carolina in feeling! Nover has a grosser
libel appeared in print;—but it is in accordance
with tho practice of too many of the Troup
leaders, who by disscmhliug their sentiments, ob
tain the confidence of the people, aud repay that
confidence with the foulest misrepresentation.
Internal Improvement—Since tho commence
ment of this year, a good many improvements
havo been made in this town. A number of
stores, warehouses aud dwellings havo been com
pleted, among them four or five of brick. A new
brick building has been erected for the Maeon
Hank; and another is goiug up for thu Branch
Bunk of the United Stutes.
Among other improvements, wo must not for
get to notice the new Mulberry street Road w hich

Mulberry street, in a straight line from (ho court
house, by the Methodist church, aud comes iuto
the Forsyth road about a mile from town. It is
said to be considerably Higher than tho other, and
is left in a highly finished condition. The sum
of about 25i!U dollars wc understand has been ex
