REPUBLICAN.’ SAVANNAH September 26, 1806. >¥il>BHWW )Wir ‘ 1l I I I THE ELECTION ..On Monday the 6th of October, an Eledtion will be held through out this State, for Members of Congress, and for the State Legislature. On that day, RE PUBLICANS ! it will become you to declare to the world your ilrength ..on that day be at your ports, exercirtng the inestimable RIGHTS of FREEMEN ..on that day, convince your opponents that you are zealous in a good caufe...that you are mighty in [Length...that you are a free and independent people—that you are not like the poor subjects of a Tyrant, debured from the privelege of feledting your owd law-makers. Repo B tic an s ! fuffer not the artifices of your adversaries, to weaken your zeal for the REPUBLICAN TICKET, of this County, for members ot AlTembly.. .the ticket is truly Republican...they would fain persuade you, that one of tK candidates is not genuine...be hove them n0t...d0 not be deluded by futh absurd rumors as have been set on float...this is done to divide your votes...he is a firm fup ■porter of your rights...a {launch Republican. Tire next Legislature tv ill be an import a ‘•: one, therefore, v.e ought to feledt men, in whom we the molt unbounded con fidence...men, whole conduct convinces us, that they.are fnpuorters of the interest of this flute. “ Native,” iaas already informed you that the next Legislature are to appoint a Gov ernor, to succeed Mr, Milledge, appointed a Senator to the United States, in the room of tire late G i.eral Jackfon...and further, that the fame Legiflaturo are to appoint an United States Senarm, from the 4th of March next, for fix years. Vi’e are pe.faaded, Republicans, that you have drank out of th; cup of Liberty—that you are convinced of the blessings of a free government —that the otiftance of the govern ment under which you live, depends upon your choice of men to represent you in the Councils of your Country—to whatever attainments we have already reached—attainments ftiii higher lliould be perlued—let us, therefore, be unit ed—let us, ttrive with becoming emulation— let us, with fervent zeal, press forward and support the Candidates proposed. VVe have often heard men fay, that they cared little about Elections—such men we would refer to the following extract—an ex tract, which, we trust, wilt be read with inter est by eveiy friend to this country. — A good Conlti.i'rion is the greatest blef fttig which a society can enjoy. Need L infer t: eL it is the duty of every citizen to ule his heft and moft unremitting endeavours for pre ierving ir pure, healthful and vigorous? For the accoiupliifiment of this great purpose, the exertions of no one citizen are unimportant. I.etno one, therefore,harbour for a moment, the mean idta, tiiat he is and can be of no value to his country let the contrary manly im prefiion animate his foul. Every one can, at many time-:, perform, to the state, uieful ser vices ; and he, who steadily pursues the road of patriotnra, has the moft inviting profpedl of King able, at feme time, to perform eminent oars. Allow me to direst your attention, in a very particular manner, to a momentous part, which, by thiSjConftitution, every citizen will frequently be called to ad. All those in pla tes ol power and trust will be elected either immediately by the people, or in such a manner that their appointment will depend ultimately on such immediate eledion. All the derivative movements oi government mult fprirg from the original movement of the people at large. If to tilii chey give a i'uflicient force and a just direction, all the others will he governed by its controuling power. Tofpeak without a me taphor, if the people, at their eledions, take care to choose nor.e but reprefenta ives that are v ife and good, their reprelentatives will take care, ill their turn, to choose or appoint none but Inch as are wife and good also. The re rn. ri: applies every fuccee- ir.g eledion and appointment. Thus the charaders proper for public offices will be di.ffufed from the imme diate eledions of the people over the remoteit p: rts of the adrniniftration. Os v.hat immerse ■cc-’fequence is it, then, that this primary duty fiiGoln be faithful!) and fkilfully difeharged ! Or: the faithful and fkilful difeharge of it, the public lu-ppiiiefs or iufeiicity, under this and e verv other constitution, must, in a very great meafwe, depend. Per, believe me, no go. vermnent, even the best, can be happily ad niinittered by ignorant or vicious men. You will forgive me, 1 am fare, for endeavouring to impress upon your minds, in the strongest man ner, the importance of this great duty. It is the firft cennedion in politics; and if au error is committed here, it can never be corrected in any lubfequent process: the certain conse quence must be disease. Let no one fay, that he is but a single citizen-; and that his ticket will be but one in the box. That one ticket may turn the eledion. In battle, every lol dier should confidor the public fafety as depen ding on his single arm : at an eiedion, every citizen Ihould coulider the public happineis as depending on his iingle vote.” Are you now, reader, convinced of the importance of your vote ?...if you are not, read ita t ain...ii ycu are, no longer harbour the ab surd id: a, that a single vote is of no confe quenre ; but ever thi .k that your vote is to turn the eled.m:. WHILE we <Jct. fi the principles c c a Tyrant, we ccramifierate with his j our subjects—there lot is not call ia a land of liberty, but that of (Every— laiicraoic o.- I Can any candid man contiaft the affairs of England will those of America, and not fhndder at the vast difference i We think not. Why then are a set of men in this country constantly endeavoring to scatter Biitifh principles among us i Why are they driving to contaminate the principles of the American youth ? It has ever been allowed that England is the moll de praved country in the world. Her in habitants are ruled by a Tyrant—her in habitants are compelled to obey the nod of a despot—the poor laborer in that country, though honell, is deprived of his right as a man—he is clalLd with the Swinish multitude —which multitude support the idle Nobility in their de bauchery—which multitude are loaded with taxes. Miserable men—miserable country ! ! A.n Englilh writer, {peak ing of his countrymen, lays, “ If the people will be enfluv’d, let them he euilav’d.” Look upon the affairs of Ameri ca—not lo on these Republican—these happy shores—here, the poor are on a footing with the rich, as respects the af fairs of government, (except among the dibffecttd)—here, every man enjoys his earnings—here, we are governed by ] men of our own choice -men, friendly lo the cause of Freedom here, the arts and sciences flourilh under the foltering hand of the goddess of li berty—here, the ojprelfed of other na tions, find au asylum. Where tyranny b-nr lwav, there it tlie country for vice and ignorance—where Republicariifm prevails, there is the country for fctence and virtue. What a devaSation there was to have been, among the Churches, See. when Mr. JefLrfon came into power, according to the predictions of Federal ills? We have seen no Chrthcs demol iihed, but initead thereof, we are happy ; “ placid hvjbandry walks in front, atten jed by the venerable plough.

THE following TICKET isfuhmitted to the Republican Electors of Chatham Coun ty, for the approaching Eledtion SENATOR, EDWARD TELFAIR. representatives, JOSEPH WELSCHER, JOHN H. MORE!,, EDWARD HARDEN. A REPUBLICAN. ExtruS of a letter from a gentleman in New- Orleans dated, August 22d to his friend in in this city. “ On Tuesday last we had a very severe thunder storm and lightening. By letters recei ved yesterday, it is Hated, that the Governor of Taxus, with about 900 Spanilh troops, had palled the Sabine river, and had advanced with in 12 miles of Natchitoches...that Major Por ter had sent a flag enquiring their intention; their answer was, tiiat they would occupy their former position, and not adi on the offenfive ! It is the opinion of the writer, that an adtion | bet w een r-ur troops and them has taken place before this, Uriel's the Spaniards have fallen buck. This intelligence you may rely on, it was forwarded by an exprels to Fort Adams from Natchitoches, report, fays, that the troops have been ordered from Fort Adams.” Dr. Kunze acknowledges the receipt of a let ter fron: Baltimore, with the inclofure oia bill of exchange for five hundred guilders, for Ulm sent in conference of his tianftation having been inserted in the newspapers of that city. Dr. Kunze would here oiiferve, that aitho’ a guilder is about 25 cents, it is at the present in Germany, ol as much value as a dollar in this country ; he therefore takes the liberty of reding, that all donations, however small the sum, will be received with thankfulneft, and tranfiintted with fidelity, to the unfortunate and diftrelTed iufferers. ■ff Otiter Printers in this ar.d the neigh h -ing c.::e, are 1 -queued to pufilifhed tfie above.

Lime Britifii privateers landed a number of men upon the Isle of Pines, took the fort, and plundered the neigh borhood of cattle, Sic, This, with the appearance ot Lveral large ships off the coast, had excited very considerable a iarm among the Spaniards, who marched 1 i a few men to the fccr.e of devallatiou, I | but before they had an opportunity of e j voicing their prowess, the British had! j embarked without molellation. The Vcr.i j ,Cruz ship which was lately captured by i I the Britifti, off the Havaunah, had on i board at the time of her capture 900000 I dollars, the property of individuals; ; 250000 dollars, belonging to the king j had been landed NORFOLK, September 3. On Saturday arrived here the (hip Fe lix, captain Ross, from Nantes, which port die left the 20th July ; we have received no papers by her, but the ver bal information which we obtain from an intelligent pafl'enger, is in (übftance to the following effect. Peace had been ta’ked of, but had not induced any {peculations founded on expectations of that event. The gene ral opinion was, that there would be no peace immediately. It was said that the French Emperor had given in his ultimatum, wlm h was in terms that it was not luppofed Britain would accede to. j The Prussian ships that had been era. ! bargoed were relcafed and one came out ; with the Felix. D’Ubriul the Ruffian envoy had reached Paris.— Ahout 18000 Italian troops, which had been for fonie time ftatiuned in Nantes and its vicinity, had been suddenly marched for Bayonne, fiom whence they were to proceed to Spain in order to co-operate with a force deilined against Portugal.
