Baltimore, June, 1832.
Dsar Sir.—A wreck it: Wasltiugtou City ivus
Lg a , any honest nun would w.-.!i to remain,
[a that time, if he makes use of his eyes, he can
L c very thing he ought to see; ami as for /icar-
ht, the less he hears the better! An excursion in
Jiie stage, after a week's ivni.leuco hero, is as ac
tuary as asegar after dinner. Without the so-
l, r . your dinner would lie heavy; aud without the
lugs, vour conscience tvuiiU lie qualmish., A
Hfcin the stage, at this fragrant season, is an ex
tent thing for the conscience. Aud a trip to
Baltimore is just the right diitalice. (
[Tam vastly pleased with Baltimore—it looks
i majestic at a distance, sealed .on the proud l"e-
:iico,—like an empress mi her palfrey—-and
retelling up her glitteriug dtadam of towers, and
nines, and spires ami monuments. And as you
later its precincts, and behold the enterprise, the
ftivity, the neatness and decorum every where
jnuif-'at, it gives you a high opinion of the inha
lants, and makes you reboot even their proju-
lircs and their faults.
1 Ifou will sec morn Hail Roads here than any
[iisro clso—steamboats, ships, and squadrons
lithout number; audcauals, 1 suppose in nhtm-
ie. You will find handsome markets sc.at-
I through the city; and good water at every,
|>rncr. Every now and thou, you c ime to a puh •
i fountain, whero a bronze Triton spouts the
: clement iuto a marble basin very prettily—a
gsacp no where else in the country. There
i mills, and foundry?, mid manufactories of ev
il sort going on here; aud every species ofindus-
r appears prosperous. At uight the streets anil
Ihlic houses are lit up with gas ligh's, in a very
|ajiiful" .ami wouderful manner. Atn particu-
r hour ia the dgy, you will sue all the'wealth
ldbusmos3 congregated at the Exchange; ttud
la particular hour in tlio evening, all the beauty
|il bullion assembled at the Theatre. In the
itaar you will see every tiling that is rich aud
s from all parts of the world—There arc wo-
o ami pine apples looking so sweet as to make
lit mouth water—hud birds, dowers and straw-
|nics enough to charm one.
Though cheerful and gay in their deportment,
their dealings the Baltimoreans are n plain mat-
lof fact soi l of people. There is more honesty
long thorn than among their neighbors, and less
■bigotry, quackery and hnmhnggery.
[T.-jUimare is admirably situated fur*Commerce,

Icital, on which is placed a colossal statue of

... TrV ir Wa ’ * oft ? n , J P ,ea *ant, and as tho body
uccdoi exercise and the mind recreation after ten
j’, '” ™ hours eoufiuenicnt in a steamboat, after
deposiriiig my baggage nt the Mansion House, I
Mined iuto riie streets to sec: the people, the fash
ions, and the sights. First, the show v shops flung
••pen on each sido of the paved street, attracted
my attention: 1 he blazoned lottery offices were
o leriug fortunes at every corner; and umnerous
frultdinps exhibited at their windows caricatures
to laugh at or cry over; confectionaries and pas'ry
cook shops, displayed every thimr to tempt the ap
petite; aud faucy stores every thing to tempt tho
eyes or dazzle the v-mity of the p uxir by; with
toy shops, bookstores and milliners interspersed:
Here a long sign In Dutch would inform the de
scendant oi the Hollanders, what sort of goods,
wares ami merchandise were sold within; aud
hero a broad brimmed hn and strait coat would
toll what sort of religion was carried without. Af
ter passing a number of splendid hanking houses,
meeting homes, Sic., I came to the old State
House, where the Independence of the United
States was declared. It is a plain and ancient
looking building, hut by far the most interesting
object I saw in the city, A fe« steps more took
me into Washington square, with its walks and
shades o» elms, horse chesnuts, and evergreens.
The rich glass und clover had just been mowed,
part of it spread out aud drying in the sun, and
part raked up iuto rows and heaps, among which
scores of happy boys- and grasshoppers were
tumbling. The air was filled with its fragrance—
the suit looked out smilingly, as he stooped to kiss
the blushing Schuylkill, and imparted a stream of
mellow light, upoii roof aud tree aud cupola and
spire. Hundreds of human being were treading
the gravel walks, io the pride of beauty, and youth,
and manhood. The scetio was enchanting—it
surpassed every thing I had ever seen or imagined.
1 W;Us enraptured—aud thought l’liiladt-Ipbia the
beautifulest city in the world! tio easy it is for
the judgment to eulist on the side of feeling; when
ever tlie animal spirits, either exalted Or depress
ed, proseut to the mind a medium tinged by the
smoke or rainbows of their own atmosphere.
You doubtless have heard a great deal about
the beauty and cleanliness of the city of Pennsyl
vania. .Take cave that you are not disappointed
when you come to see it. Tlie streets are laid off
with a great deal of regularity it is true—but the
site is entirely too low for beauty or health, aud
ns for cleanliness, I very much query, whether
those who first gave Philadelphia that character,
were not seriously quizzing her! To my eyes,
hcfoic I left it, it was any thingelse than a clean
ly city. I do not say the people arc otherwise
Chan nice in their cooking—I know nothing at all
about that; and I know the value of a good din
ner too well to ever thrust my nose into a kitchen.
But I do say, the streets are uot so clean as I ex
pected to sec them! There appear to be no sub-
terrLmeau drains—every thing is thrown out upon
tha surface, to evaporate in tho sun, or find its
way to the river as it cau. Washings from kitch
ens and stuldes, with refuse meats aud vegetables,
are forced down in the yard, to drizzle over the
side walk iuto thestrect! Tha eyes and nose are
offended at every step, with unseemly filth and a-
lio mutable smells. And yet it has tho reputation
of a cleanly city! ' •
Philadelphia has also the r-putaticc of a very
moral city: and, from the number of tracts aud
hihles strewed through the steamboats and taverns,
aud the parndo of temperance societies, temper
ance taverns and temperance groceries, you would
think it the very cream of morality. But it takes
hut a slight knowledge of human nature and a
little experience, to he ablo to lift the cloak of
hypocrisy, and see doeepliou, fraud and corrup
tion on every hand aud at every time. Every
species of swindling is practised, and in every
possible maimer—Horn tho selling of a lottery
ticket to the chartering of a shaving shop. 1 shall
begin to heliove every thing Judge Clayton has
urged against tho U. S. Bank. There are people
here bad enough for any tiling. You havo seen
in tha newspapers tho way they manage in lotting
out hank stock ? The worst account published
docs not come up to the reality.
Notwithstanding the Quaker garb and seeming
humility which clothes this good city like a gar
ment, the experienced traveller will be at no loss
to dkeaverngreat share of vanity aud ostentation
lurking out beneath. He will see an insuperaldo
degree of pride and haughtiuoss in tlie deport
ment of the Philadclphiaus; aud an arrogant ond
osteutatious display of wealth and magnificence
no less annoying. And if ho attempts to do any
btisiucss, and does not fancy himself among a set
of conspirators, hypocrites, and cheats, he will bo
rnoio cuaritahlo tliao I am. .
Tlie conclusion I have arrived at, after spend
ing 36' hours in the city is, that Philadelphia has
becu most prodigiously overrated; and that she
has acquired a reputation she is by no means en
titled to. Tho market of Philadelphia, which has
been so highly extolled, beats no comparison to
that of Charleston, as respects variety, nlmudauce,
. order aud cleanliness. Aud as for Beauty,-1 saw-
no Beauties there. What ladies I saw, compared
to out Georgia girls, were positively plain, to say
the least; and their taste in dress most preposter
ous. The hare-legged fashion is cametf to a most
extravagant Iwight; while their big feet would
seem to suggest a contrary extreme.
But I wish not “to extenuate—or so: down
aught in malice”—I only state my own feelings
mid impressions* Other* may seo things in au
entirely dihercut light. Adieu. B-

New York, June, 1832>
Desk Sib—I am bettor pleased with New
York tliau with Philadelphia—though 1 hardly
know w hy. Probably because we do not see so
much bigotry and caul hero at in that city. Our
Southern feelings are not so often outraged; uor
our State pride so often insulted. Yon don t
hear a lecture at every corner about Georgia in
justice; uor seo iu every newspaper, slaudcrs up
on your State, your institutions aud your people.

You saunter off to the theatre or tho opera, to

clock, jou find the tabic spread with ahuuduuee
of ham, beef, veuisou, lobsters, Crabs, &c. quit*
tempting to behold. You may past by it if you
please—but 1 could uot. Though I eschew late
suppers as I do morning bitters which they be
get, I could not resist the temptatiou after so loug
a fast, aud made a most uuconsioitable meal, on
boiled lobster and bread and butter. Dearly
dhsugli was the siu repented of. Sleep Hcd my
pillow—aud all night long was the accursed lob
ster wrcstliug within mo, like Ami-masonry in
tlie bowels of this State, creating ttnlioiy strifes
and internal commotions. At last I got iuto a
dose—bat not to obtain rest. The nightmare, iu
the shape of att enormous lobster, was upon me,-
as 1 lay upon my back, its pendulous eyes and
long flexile feeleis glowering in my face—its aw
ful claws about my throat—it* cold scahy shell
pressing upou my heart! I was unable to move
a finger; aud Was wrestling iu excrutiating agony,
and nearly at the last grasp—as the watchman
kindly bawled under my window, Vll-n-I-f p-a-s-t
3 o'clock, aud a-ll-s well!” when the “varmint”
lot go his hold and disappeared. Siuce then I
havo sworn off from black lea, late suppers and
live lobsters.
I havo travelled a good do,,! in the western
parts of this State. A more beautiful couutry
was never seen. The land is gently undulating,
hut seldom mouutancousor rocky, The hills aro
cultivated to their tops, and afford tho finest
wheat fields nnd pasture lands that can be ima
gined. On the whole linj of the great Canal,
towns and cities nre starting up with a rapidity
never before heard of. In the vicinity of the
lakes, the scenery is picturesque aud enchautiug.
Abrupt precipices sometimes are seen, with groves
and forests, interspersed with mills, bridges, farms
and villas.
Rochester has now got to be quip! a city, with
a population of 12,000. Here the Cauat crosses
tlie Gencssee river in a costly aqueduct; and the
river itself takes a leap of 100 feet down a steep
precipice, nnd forms tho prettiest cascade perhaps
you over saw. But Rochester is famed lor leap
ing: It was hero Sam Patch made his last leap,
of 125 feet over the falls and into eternity—here
the masons were seen leaping off with Morgan—
and here, ever since, the Anti-masons have been
making tremeudous leaps into the abyss of poli
tics.
1 have visited the dominious of his British Ma
jesty, and sailed under the British flag! I have
bceu on the battle grouud of Chippewa, and
clambered over the heights of Qneenston. At
tho latter place a largo monument is erected to
the memory of Gen. Brock, about 12fi feet high,
aud resembles tho Washington moaUment at Bal
timore, but it is not so tall uor so handsome. The
following is the inscription upon it: “Upper Can
ada has dedicated this monument to the memory
of (lie into Major General Sir Isaac JJrock, R. C.
B. Provisional Lieut. Gov. and Commander of
the forces iuthis Province, whose remains are de
posited in the vault beneath. Opposing the in
vading enemy, he fell in action near these heights
on the 13th Oct. 1812, in the 43d year of his ago,
revered and lamented by the people whom he go
verned, and deplored by the sovereign to whose
service his life had been devoted.”
I have also been it: the neighborhood of the
Cholera; nnd have seen one or two persons sup
posed to be 9ufferiug uuder an attack from it.—
The disease excites a great deal of alarm all over
this section of the country. Every town in the
State, as well as in Canada; Vermont, &c. are
preparing to receive it, by removing nuisauces
and getting a little clcau like. If It should uot
come? they will probably feel a good deal disap
pointed, after taking such unusual pains to be
clean. Generally speaking, the northern towns
are much more filthy than the southern. Masses
of putrifyiug matter are allowed to aeeamuliHe
from year to year; and it is only when an epidem
ic is among them that they think of removing it.
A general spirit of cleanliness seems now to be a-
broad in' the land; except in places whore it is
thought fasting and prayer are more efficacious.
You nave seen iu the papers the precautionary
means recommended—aud ns the disease is as
likely to break out in Georgia as any where, yon
will uo on your guard against it.
While at BufTalo, there was a good dent of talk
about the Indian War raging at tho West. A
great-many troops have gone up the Canal, bound
for the scat of War, via tlie lakes. They appear
ed to be iu fine spirits at the prospect of soon ha
ving something to do; and the hills re-echoed with
tho entivening strains of their drums aud fifes.
The Legislature of New York is now in session;
aud Albany, the seat of tho State government, is
filled withstatesmcnroffice seekers and gamblers.
Political jockying is on a smaller scale hero
than at Washington City; but tlie jockies nre e-
qtially expert, unprincipled aud ambitious. A
politician is tho same, the world over.' His net*
may vary, in different situations, but his motives
never—they centre in hi* 6wn interest, Always.
Albany is pleasantly situated fur health and beau
ty—and commnndingly sor for business. It is he
coming an imntenso thoroughfare, am) is rapidly
increasing in wealth and population. There are
a good many handsomo public huildiugs here, aud
the streets are laid off with some regard to regu
larity aud convenience. ^ B.
#0» THE MACON TEtEORAPll.-
A numerous and highly respectable meeting of
the citizens of Henry county took place accord
ing to previons notice, Rt M'Donough, on Tpes-
day tlie 3d inst. for the purpose of nominating a
suitable person to fill tho important offico of Vice
President of the United Stulos.
The assembly having been brought to order,
Col. Andrew K. Moonx was called to the chairs
aud Mr. Am.vsa Spencer appointed secretary.
John \V. A. Pettit Esq. read the following re
solutions, which, together with their preamble,
were, on motion, adopted unanimously.
A period has arrived in our political condition
which imposes moro than ordiuary responsibility
on the people to mnke a prudent selection of pub
lic officers, especially auvb as ate to become tho
administrators of the Geucral Government. All
around wo sec evidonccs ef disquietude growing
out of the partial operation of laws imposed for
tho protection of manufactures. These laws, wo
greatly fear, will array the South iu irreconcila
ble hostility to tho North.
In this posture of things the public eyo is nnlur-
ally turned to tlio causes and the meu hy whose
agency these sectioual antipathies havo been cu-
f -undered, and in takiug this view, this meeting
eel paiued to disem tlio hand of a citizen of New
York performing a distinguished part in alienat
ing- tho affections of one portion of our fellow-ciu-
r oefrom tbe other; *
The relation hr which- Mr: Van Bukkn stands
to- the tariff ofTSSd,-attvl 1 his- present opiuions on
that subject, to say nothing of him on any other,
[daces it quite beyond the power of- the South to
support him for Vico'President at the approach
ing election, if the South ho sincere in- her'objcc-
(i,as to the Tariff. Our brethera' it the North
canooxhelieve us honest in our resistSutce against
oppression, while they bohold us worshiping the
oppressor, "and kissing tho rod that sutttos lA."
Upon the ttust deliberate consideration wecou-
.ioi' is lb,.) opinion opposed Ly the l esuii oi li.i
Baltimore Convention, What Status will sup
port him? It is growing Watlifcat that Virginia
will not; for that State will promote her eminent
ciuzon Philip Pendleton Barbour; North Caroli
na is setdown iu deadly hostility to Mr. Vaii Hu
ron; South Carolina sooner than vote for him
wiij'cl peril their lives; Georgia mouriia from the
Chattnlioochio to the Snvnuunh, the Baltimore
tioniiuation; aud tue sentiment is fuuud on the
lips of hbth our Stato parties—no regret that the
Convention did not nominate Mr. Barbour; Ala
bama, through her patriotic Legislature, has al
ready nominated Virgiuia's favorite son; with
hold these States, can Mr. Van lluren succeed?
No one is so blind as not to see that he cannot ob
tain Pennsylvania, which, although a Jackson
State, "oes for Sergeant or for Wilkins. We then
ask tho important question—can Mr. Vmi Bnren
get tho yotes of the Clay States? He ccrtainly
caunot. By the Constitution the tlto highest only
go to the Senate, aud (here it is known that Ser
geant will he able to succeed over Vail Burch.
The election cannot be kept out of the Senate
while Pennsylvania and South Carolina alone, to
say notltiug of auy other Stute, refuse to support
Van Huron. Is it uot then for the interest of thp
Jackson party, aud the great interest of die South
to send :t man to tho Senate who can unite the
whole Jackson party and become Vice President?
That man » Philip P. Barbour. Who docs not
know thut in Seuate, Barbour may heat Ser
geant? Who does not know that Van Burcn can
not? If then a Clay aud a Jackson man must go
to the Senate, seud in Barbour or you lose your
Vico President.
Resolved therefore. That we recommend Phi
lip Pendleton Barbour of Virginia as a Suit
able person to be supported in this State for Vico
President, believing as we do that he is tlie choke
of the great majority of the people.
Reeoldtd, That we will uot support Van Buren
for that office.
Resolved, That Col. Andrew R. Moore, Col.
John W. A. Pettit, Dr. Jacob Stokes, Col. Oli
ver W. Cox and Amasa Spencer be appointed a
committee to correspond with the candidates for
electors of President and Vice President and as
certain tho courso they* will pursue if elected, iu
relation to the last resolutions.
Resolved, 'That wo highly approve the conduct
of our fellow-eitizcus<George M. Troup, Dauiel
Newuan, Richard 11. Wilde, aud Henry G. La
mar, and they are severally entitled to cur thanks
for their refusal to attend tile Baltimore Conven
tion to vote for Martin Vau Buren.
Resolved, That these proceedings he signed by
tlio Chairman and Secretary and published iu the
Milledgcville and such other papers as they may
designate.
ANDREW R. MOORE, Chairmen.

M'Donough, July 3,1833.
Tie Cholera.—'Tlwro was yesterday, (says the
New York Jour, of Commerce, July 4,) a great
diminution of panic in regard to the Cholera, and
tqany seemed to be of opinion that we had uo uu-*
usual disease among us. We are sorry to say that
we cannot honestly encourage such a belief. The
cases which occurred yesterday, of a decided
character, so fur as has come to our knowledge,
are live, viz. two iu Water street above Peck slip,
one at a public house in Warren street, one in 2U4
Chambers street, and one on the corner of Wash
ington aud Duane streets. The cates in Water
street were nil Irishman and his wife, of intem
perate habits. Tiiey were ottacked early yester
day morning, and died in tho afternoon. Tho
man in Warren street landed yesterday morning
from some conveyance on tlie North River. lie
was alive last night at 9 o'clock, hut his recovery
was considered extremely doubtful. The hoy at
204 Chambers street (named Sutton,) ^retired in
usual hoalth on Monday night,—awoke its parents
by its dries about one o’clock yesterday morning,
—hud the same symptoms which have attended
all the other cases, and died abort one o’clock P.
M.—Wo have seen a physician who was present
at the posl-niortcnft examination. Ho tells us that
though he has long been a practitioner in this city,
and had many eases of common cholera, first and
last, under his charge, this peculiar modification
of the disease is entirely new to himr The case
at the comer of Daano and Washington streets
