Tho Ladies nnd all friendly to Harrison, Tyler and Reform, are invited to attend. ONE WORD IN THE EAR OF OUR FRIENDS. The practire of giving away papers has increas ed so much, that we cannot bear tho expense; besides which the trouble and interruption is quite annoying. Each individual who occasionally calls for a particular papers which lie'wishes to see or send to a friend, cannot be aware of die in- conrenienco nnd expense to which we ore sub ject. Wo have given away often a dozen or twenty papers of a morning—and we feel com pelled to discontinue the practice entirely. We have published at our own expense some thirty dollars worth of paper containing General Harrison's letters and speeches. Wo havo still a hundred nud fifty of them left, which any good Whig can have without charge. We must give Gen. Harrisox a majority of 10,000 to 12,000 in November, and these documents ought to be distributed. Call nnd get them. A BRIDEGROOM KILLED. The Mercer (Pa.) Luminary de.iails tho partic ulars of iiinglitful catastrophe: "A few evenings since it is stated,(Mr. John Douglass; of N ,; w Bedford, in Mercer county, ' was m-irrind to a young lady, daughter of Mr. JJydofof vermin, Ohio; mid on the following af ternoon,just before Icnving for this place, his hro- ther-in-hw asked Mr. D. to look nt a young horse he had purchased, and while lending it to-wards tho house, with a halter round its neck, his wife came out nnd remarked that she could ride it. ' He took hold of her, as though he wo* going to put heron its hack at whicii it took fright and rrmning close by another horse, the latter kicked him on the back, which knocked him down; nnd tb* halter becoming fastened round his hand, lie was drawn over a pile of wood, and then for the distance of fifteen or twenty tods, the horse at full •peed, until they reached across fence, when the • side of his head struck the comer of a panel of the fence, fracturing bis scull in a most shocking . manner, and striking with such force, os to move the rails several feet, and the sudden halt throw ing the horse fiat upon the ground. His leg was also broken and dreadfully mangled, either when he struck the fence, or by coming in contact with something on (lie wav. A* “Mr. Dougluss lingered until Saturday morn- • ing, nt times showing sigusnf sensibility, nnd oc casionally uttering a few words—when he ex pired.” Nenspapers.-TIim wist munher of newspapers that are constantly Icing born in almost every section of the country, is truly distressing. They come in all shapes and sizes, and all hues nnd hades in politics, and no politics nt all. The lames too are a\7ful. So fast do they come forth that the Innsunce seems to be deficient to furnish • name of any thing that is appropriate, euqhone- ous, or new, nnd their sponsors nre driven to give nuv name under heaven. We havo "The Great Western,” published somewhere, nnd the “Musquito,” near the same place. Then comes a “ Sledgehammer,” and the “Anvil;” “The Wasp,” and “Thu Hornet;” “The File,” and tho Rasp; “The Spirit of Democracy,” "The Spirit of tho Times,” and nil kinds of Spirits. The “Dirty Shirt,” “The Huge Paw,” utid (lie last we have heard of, is a furious one called the “Tornado.” Some of these nrc conducted with great talent, others ordinary. Some nre managed ith great propriety. others outrun all old fash- i notions in that respect. Some may live, rfiut more will probably die in three mouths, than outlive that veuorcble age. 0 MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR. Extract from a Id Ur dated, Nassau (N. P.)27th .August, 1840' received at Naw Orleans tin lla• rana. A singular circtimsinnce occurred a few days ago. A largo French ship from Hnmhurg, ■bound to Havana was picked up by one of our Jitlle wreckers about a fanlight ago, quite desert ed.

When sounded, three feet wa ter was found in her hold,which was immediately K7* We refer our renders to the advertisement of Mr. White. We have fornierlyhedthe honor of witnessing the examinations at Mr. White’s Academy, and it gives us real pleasure to give our testimony in his favour. He hasbecn a beforo the public as Teacher for sixteen years, nnd no. thing which we could say would udd to hia well earned reputation as an instructor of youth.— Thousands of his pupils have taken their place in tlie great drama of life, where they act well their parts, and boar testimony to tlie enthusiastic fondness of their instructor for the causo of edu cation. We have every reason to be prond of our Savannah schools. We advise our country friends to come to town, if they, wish to enjoy the benefits of a modem and improved system of education. Savannnh is looking up—her Rail Road is looking up—her Schools—her Promen ades—her Politics—every tiling is improving. Nothing can stop her onward course. At the present time , the inhabitants of the country come hero for health it^summer and for recreation and society in winter. ALL’S WELL! I!! GRAND CELEBRATION OF THE ANNI VERSARY OF THE BATTLE OF THE THAMES, lit GEORGIA, OCT. fftb. 1840. APOSTACY RED VICED!! THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE TRIUMPHANT!!! Total annihilation of Tan Bu renisui in Georgia 1! 1 “ lie hare met the Enemy and they are ours!! With feelings of pride and joy, we announce to our Whig .brethren throughout the Union the glorious triumph of the People in this Slate. We hnve literally swept the Stale—they are routed “ horse, foot and dragoons.” Scarcely a vestige remains of the party. VVe have elected AN EN TIRE WHIG DELEGATION TO CON GRESS, and hnve secured a largo majority in both branches of the Legislature, which will give usa Whig U. S. Senator. Our majority in the Stale will be from 4 to G000. Without disparagement to other Whig Slates, we call litis the greatest victory of the campaign. Georgia U good for 10,000 majority for General Harrison. The entire power of tlie General Government bos been brought to bear on this State, and tlie party have been sure of success until now. And now instead of the thunder of Loco Poco cannon, and the confusion of their shouts, we hear nothing but the croak, ing* of their presses over tho destruction now threatening iho country. We assure our Van Burcii friends the *•Country is safe." They need not show such alarm, at the prospect of a lung re sidence on Suit River. If ill ey will philosophize a little, it will all look well. They must recollect that “ British Whigs,", with their ** British Gold," nnd “ British Banks” have been there for a long season, and of course aristocrats who faro so sumptuously,have made this old resideuce os mag nificent as possible. We therefore hope they will quiet their fours and we will show them how much better they will prosper under “ Whig Im provements." We have done our duty, and noyr look to the remaining States, to “ keep the ball rolling," and are proud that we are enabled to nnnouce to the country that “GEORGIA COMES TO THE RESCUE.” illy stops about 21 or 33 This is • most shameful in- of this pluce, and to tlie Mer» la there no remedy! Ie tho ral doing justice to a communi ty, which through thick and thin, through all evil report, hae by A considerable Minority sus tained the cause of his party? We hope to are this state of things remedied; and are surprized that nnuhusoofsomuoh consequence bus not been rectified before; This administration will always mako war upon the Merchants. We ex pect that. They havo alwnysbeen marked out as objects of censure nud distrust. It is true, that commerce Is tbu fruitful soureo of many of our choicest blessings. It is true, that tho morenutilo miiriiiH of tho world has been tho main source of sprendiug the gospel, of founding colonies in tlie benighted corners of tho earth; it is true that th# “ Whose march is o’or tlie mountain wave, " Whose home is in the deep,” have been choice agents in diffusing the benefits of civilization, and promoting the great cause of human happiness—this, however, goes for no thing in the estimation of a good for nothing, currupt administration But really in rolulion to tlie Mails it is wrong that “ the faithful' should suffer condemnation along with us recreant Whigs. The administra tion nt least should havo some regard for those double-distilled, douhle-refined, extra-superfine democrats who want to get the Globe as scnRon- uhly as possible. Is it not proper to havo sotno public action on this subject? OCT* Through the attention of a friend in Da rien, wo learn that a farmer from Ware, arrived nt that place, hnd seen tlie returns of the 0th and 10th Districts, in which the Harrison Congres sional Ticket was one hundred rotes ahead. It was thought that 400 votes would be polled. Strick land was elected Senator and Stuart Representa tive, without a doubt. Our Darien correspondent also writes, that we have elected Wiggins by 24 votes in Wayne. In Appling the Van Buren ticket has succeeded by 20 votes. Troup County.—Hurrah fur her honest, in telligent citizens. She has done wonder*. Al ford is certainly a “ tear horse." That County bears tho name of ono of tho most honest politi cians our country bus seen, and right well docs she bear it. to the ci a: Who toe Ctistoi jr ruL oi that sbe had cro ouly of cages, to dentil ins who icqunin and state pumped ouVnpd it was d no leak.

Every Georgian who takes a proper pride in the honor and welfure of his State, is called upon to be awake on the subject of our State Rail Road.— Let Carolina take care of herself and her inter ests, aud we will take caro of ours. We hope that every paper in the State will copy the communications of “ Pvblieola.” We beg leave to inform our good friends in this State that we want a Registry Law in Savan nah. Help us out will you ? Let ua use our power for good purposes. • •EFEight companies of thnSlh Regiment,U.S. Infantry have, ere this, arrived at Tampa Bay from St. Louis, via New Orleans. Col. W. J. Worth, the gallant commanding officer of thnt Regiment, passed through this town on tlie 10th inst. with the two remaining companies, on their way to St. Angustiue, where they will remain some two weeks and then proceed to Tampa. In the mean time, in consequence of nu order just received from the Secretary of War, tlie Col onel will force mi ex press through to Tampa with all speed to direct the eight companies of his Re giment now there to halt at that post, instead of marching on Fort King aa they were directed in previous orders. The two companies which called at this place, were complete, i. e. each numbered eighty pri vates, four serjeants, four corporals and 2 musi cians, or in all, ninety non-commissioned officers and soldiers. We hope that Dame Fortune, or the God of War,will favour these brave men.aud throw some chances in their way. We shall receive from its officers, some of whom have been our comrades iu arms, occasion al military intelligence, which we shall lay before our readers. Dlffca^CErUL OUTRAGE. Recently a mob hooded by one Mr. Wmoitr; a custom house officer of Now Jersey, assaulted the Whig procession in Now York, moving to the celebration of tho battle of tlie Thames, persona in tho procession were wouud 'ho Whigs jclmrgod upon tho intruders, look to their heels. . ttstoui House officers in the country gener ally seem to hare tfben peculiarly acllve os pollli- cal agents. The tithe draws near when many of them will he deprived of the power which they have abused. In the North, (hair activity seomftn increase apace ns tlie elections approach. Tho number of employees In the Now York Custom ifouse has more than doubled within the past ten years. If Gen. Harmson does not ornre sotno 1&0 or 200 names from tho list at thut place, we shall be disappointed. 4 * IIow different things were in Mr. Adams* tlmn. When tho blood hounds wnro unleashed upon him, lie could have used the power Jk pntronngo of Government to snvo himself, but ho never oonde- scouded lo stop from his high elevation for that object. No one ever made the charge against him. But now, all aro in the field, from the Pre sident down. Some few and bright exceptions thorn arc, Imt they are few indeed. Most of tlie office-holders nre struggling for dear life, and they have risked al upon tho hnzznnl of n die. WI11GS OF THE UNION. The days of the administration appear to be numbered. The liand-writiug of tho peoplo is on the wnll. But do not forget that men oppos ed to the freo institutions of this country aro in powor. They have all the offices from Maine to Louisiuua filled with their own hirelings, whose support depends upon their/uccess in tlie present political contest, many ofwhoui have bofore given evidence that tlioy would do any deed to perpetuate their power. Tlioy havo (he whole revenues of the country in their hands to assist them in workiug out their evil purposes. The people, the freemen of tho country can not therefore bo too much on their gunrd. There is every reason to believe thut before tlie election the party will adopt some expedient to defeat the people. That which seems most probable is the' stoppage of Whig papers of every description, and the circulation of false information to deceive the people. Be it what it may, we exhort you by your patriotism, your love of your families, your altars and your country to be on your guard. Defeat them by expresses, by meetings, by cau- tiou combined with untiring energy. It will notbe safe, to give credit to arykthing, any report, or any scheme of attack thattnay ori ginate within four weeks of the election. Once more, Whigs keep a sharp look out at tlie ballot boxes. They will move heaven and earth to circumvent and defeat us. Mark them well at every turn nnd in every way.

The first nnd second propositions of having the terminus of the Rond at Cross Plains or Red Clay, were advocated ou the gronhds that they* would cost much less and savo tho Suite the qx- pense of building Iho Roud to the Tennessee; and yet give her, through tlie Iliwnssee and tlie Gunter’s Landing Roads, the facility of trading with both East aud West Tennessee, also to the Great West, ami that without encountering tho obstacles to tlie navigation to tlie Tennessee; and because the funds in hand would serve to com plete the Road and sot the cars in motion to Cross Plains; whereas if tiic«o funds were expended in grading to Ross’ Lauding, the State might, uuder the present embarrassed condition of the mone tary world and of her own affairs, find it difficult to provide means to complete any portion of the Road for service. These propositions were re jected, because the contractors offered to grade the Road to Ross' Landing for State scrip, which re moved, in some degree, the question ns to menns; nud because our Road, in itscommunicatioti wiili the West, would be dependent upon these Roads, would have to await their completion and then be subject to their disorders, nnd the interests aud whims of their mauagers and owners; und because Georgia might, through her own work, place Charleston and Mobile in competition with her own senport. These propositions were con sidered ns advocated principally hy those inte rested in the Alabama nnd Highwassee Roads,by the Charlestonians, and probably hy some Chero- ke fans, who may have hopedllmt those roads would nolbe finished,so ns to bring the Western produc tions into competition with the productions of thair country—and probably by some others, who may have wished to make a large city of Romo. Th«* Alubumians desired the success of this pro position , because they would give Mobile an eusier couni’-ction with Tennessee, and possibly with North Carolina end Virginia, and probably bring to Uieir assistance the aid of Georgia, to scale the Hand Mountains. The Stockholders or the lliwassco Road and tho Chnrlesiouinns are intimately associated in the Branch of the Cincinnati Rail Road Bank nt Knoxville, and they propose extending this Road to Cincinnati—thus would be built tlie Great Charleston and Cincin nati Rail Road. The completion of this project would verify tho predictions made years ago,viz- that Charleston’s plan was to tnuke uso of tlie Georgia Road in her passage to the West, and thatsho was pressing tho subject of tlie Charleston and Cincinnati Road, merely with the view to obtain from the Western States charters for Branches to her great Bank, well knowing that money makes the mare go, aud thus she would ride over Georgia and ahead of Savannah, it is tlie interest of these roads to unite with the Western and Atlantic Rail Road, aud no doubt they will he united with it, os soon as their respective Stock holders and States can supply tlie means to build tho junctions. The H ighwassee Rond is already graded to tho Georgia linn, within 15 or 18 miles of Cross Plains—tho timber for the superstruc ture is said to be prepared, nnd tho Stockholders hove tho right from Georgia to run their Road lo Cross Plains. The Legislature of Georgia have also granted a Charter for a Branch Road to Rome; so that these plans may yet ho car ried out by Companies,and will tnoi>t certainly be, iu lime, since tno nddifionnl cost from the na ture oftho ground for noth routs cannot bo other wise thau small.

Ilnrrison is denounced as a Federalist, be cause he approved of the conduct of die elder Ad uuis, relative to the anticipated war with France —because lie spoke respectfully of Mr. Adams l as n gentleman and patriot—and opposed the dis banding of (lie army. The same reasoning would condemn Gen. Smith, of Maryland, Thins. Jefferson and George M. Troup of die same crime. Geu. Smith voted with Gen. Ilnrrison on tlmtijuustion,in fuel, was tho originator of the army scheme. Air. Jolfer- son spoke in favor of the war, aud George M, Troup, in speaking of it, uses die following lan guage, viz: “When tho French Directory*, in die name of liberiy, which it abused, ond in the name of hon or, which it sullied, availing itself of die gener ous sympathies of our people, hnd essayed to in volve them in tho conflicts of Europe, and on die side of France, Mr< Adams resented the insults and repelled die indignities ofrtho»c misuunied republicans, with a patriot firmness, worthy ofbis former life; and a corrupt.government of tho most powerful nation of Cnfwtimdom, which had dared to demand a liasc bribe.as the price of peace, was iusltucted drat tho Americnn people were ready to pay millions for defence, but not a cent for tribute.

Although she n largo hontof about two hundred feet in length, she runs to Albany, consuming tlw triflng ana in considerable quantity of only tnron cords of wood. Her charge for passage in only a dollar; nnd as she is now running, this is ample abundant com pensation.
