Now there is more sophistry than truth in this statement. The people of Georgia have not been burthened to the amount of one cent by the Ta riff on woollens of 1824. Has the price of wool lens increased since that time ? No, it has fallen. Has any one paid more for his coat, or blanket than formerly ? No ! he has paid less. We ap peal to the sales books of our merchants, to public price currents, nay to the recollection of our citi zens, for the proof of this. If then, the practical operation of the Tariff is directly the reverse of what was predicted in re gard to it, of what is sti’l asserted of it—if instead oi raising the price of goods, it only keeps it stea dy—if our citizens can see , and feel all this, will they be led away by the clamors of interested po liticians, sc far as to jeopardize the peace and bar. mony of the Union ? All the clamor which has been raised against the tariff, has been based upon the assumed fact, that the price of goods would be advanced in con sequence of it. But experience has shown that such is not the fact. The price of goods has not advanced—consequently, the planters of the south have not been taxed for the benefit of the north ern manufacturers. This duty of 38 per cent, a bout which the editors the Journal make so long a talk, instead of coming out of the pockets of the good people of Georgia, has been paid by the foreign manufacturer He has been obliged to send his goods to our market, at as low a price ns formerly, in order to compete with our domestic manufacturers. He has not been able to add the amount of duty tc the price of his cloth but has been obliged to deduct it from tne amount of his own profit?, from the wages of his half starved workmen. It is the foreign manufacturer, there fore, who is taxed by the Tariff, and not the con sumer, as our politicians would have us believe. But there is another inacuracy in the reasoning of the Journal. There may indeed be 400,9tX souls in Georgia, agreeably to his statement ; bu‘ then very few of them are dressed in British Broadcloths. So far as our observation has ex tended. the planters of Georgia arc usually clad in substantial homespun, the produce of their own looms. We, of course, except a few individual in the neighborhood of towns. But should an one be desirous of making a calculation as to the amount of cloathing subject to the tariff let him attend the sittings of the Superior Courts in the ! different counties, and notice the dresses of the | jurors, witnesses, and suitors, about the Court, House. He will find that the tariff has a very li mitted operation. Why instead of every man's paying a tax annually of 2 28 on account of the ta riff, there will be found but few who have paid that amount for British broadcloths in the whole course of their lives ! It is preposterous to suppose that the farmer is taxed, because there is a duty on an article which he never buys. The price of broad . cloth may rise and fall, and never affect the in terests of the farmer, if he never meddles with the article There are, to be sure, other classes of tho ! community who wear British goods to a large a j mount. But who are they ? The merchant, who ; imports British goods, finds it more convenient to take a coat pattern from his shelf, than to be at the trouble of getting one manufactured at home. The lawyer, tho doctor, together with the non descript gentry, dress in broadcloth—Who, if they be not the most numerous, are generally the ost noisy part of the community—and are generally as sensitive in matters that touch the pocket,as other people. And even admitting that these individuals do pay a tax on the superfluous articles of their dress does the country suffer thereby ! If they cannot afford to pay the tax, let them dress ip homespun and avoid it. W e repeat it —the prodigious clamors which have been raised by a certain set of politicians a gainst the Tariff, and the general government, and the northern manufactures, have their origin in feelings and views, which are not avowed. Let the people look to it, and examine the matter for themselves, before they are humbugged into a course of policy, which will prostrate their dear est interests, and tarnish the glory of their state forever. The following is a list of Candidates for Electors of President and Vice-President nominated at the last session of the Legislature, by the party who, at the last, election, (supported General Jackson in opposition to Mr. Crawford. These style them selves the consistent friends of Jackson, because they supported his claims from principle as well as policy, when they were opposed by the popular voice of the State.

The name of Gen. ha* been so frequently in the newspapers, hat vve presume few of our fel • Iow r citizens ar . unacquainted with his character and claims. He is a gentleman-of fine talents, was a brave and successful officer during the last war, and one among the earliest who espoused the cause of Gen. Jackson in this State. The ticket which we have inserted below, was nominated by the party who, at the last election, supported Mr. Crawford ; and who then, it is be lieved, preferred Mr. Adams to Gen. Jackson.— Circumstances, however, have occurred, which have changed their feelings in regard to Mr. Adams, and they now, though rather unwillingly, come into the support of Gen. Jackson. It is not long since many of the leaders of this party ex pressed themselves very freely against Gen. Jack son, and it was not until all efforts to bring out a tlmd candidate had failed, that they consented to raiiy under the Jackson flag. Indeed, such was the hostility entertained by the Crawford party against Jackson and Calhoun, that had a more ju dicious course been pursued by Mr. Adams on one or two occasions, we think the time has not long passed, when a proper exertion by the friends of Mr. Adams w o#i have given him the votes of this state. But it is not now possible. Whether this ticket will support Mr. Calhoun, we have our doubts. The hostility entertained against him by many of Mr. Crawford’s friends, is strong and deep rooted ; and we should rather be inclined to think, that this ticket, if elected, would throw away their votes again upon Van Buren, in pre ference to voting for Mr. Calhoun, The friends of Calhoun in this state, will, it is prosumed support the other ticket. I he individuals composing this ticket, as well as the other, are highly respectable, and have long enjoyed the confidence of the people in several honourable stations. Col.

To Mr, Ichabod Flog ginbottom , Schoolmaster , Biossomdale Village , f'crpiont. Dear Sir, In my last I informed you of my safe ar rival in Savannah, and of the general politeness of the people of that city—more especially of the little man w 7 ith the red lace, who was candidate for an important office. After spending several days in that, flourishing city, and making many w 7 ise and profound reflections upon the manners, customs, and habits of the inhabitants—the bene fit of all which you shall in due time receive—l concluded to start for Milledgeville, where, as I have bean informed, the genius of the state con verges to a focus, as it w r ere, affording thereby great facilities for observation and reflection. Al ter due deliberation, I concluded to travel on horseback ;as in fact 1 w r as not encumbered w 7 ith much baggage, and washed to get along economi cally. So I went round to the livery stable, where I was told, 1 might be furnished with animals of all descriptions. Can you hire me a horse says I, to gj to Milledgeville ? “Ay, that 1 can, says he, I’ve the horse that’s carried many a great man to Milledgeville. and the one w 7 hich many more must ride if they ever get there—call him Old Treaty ” Thus saying, he led out a long legged, sw 7ayback ed, shambling kind of a quadruped, criplcd in his gait, broken winded, and blind of one eye, which he declared one of the safest and surest horses in | the country. Can stand the climate, says he, tra vel at. all hours, and in all weather, and was never foundered, or known to fail. He has carried seve ral of my neighbors express, to Milledgeville. and : not long since ran a famous race on the Georgia course, against the Dare-devil. Always hire him to persons going t<4 Milledgeville.” Guess fie won’t do, says I, too thin on the ribs: “All the better or that, says he, got no other.” go l hacj to mount upon Old Treaty, and sat off. For the first twenty miles the road lies through a flat swampy country, and has been causewayed at considerable expense. Few marks of high im : provement on either side. About sundown ar rived at a place they call the Major’s, where I : procured entertainment for the night. Avery | clever man the major—keeps a good house—but darn’d bad whiskey and no cider. lie knew my horse Old Treaty .directly—“ an old acquaintance, says he—rode a race on him to MilledgeviHe once myself-—-hoped to have gained a prize of So(V0 — but just as I got to the stone steps of the State House, five stout candidates jumped upon his back at once, and crowded me off behind, over the tail; Old Treaty made a terrible effort —but he was heavily laden, and a tall fellow from ‘Wilkes, who rode a horse called Vox-populi, dashed on ahead and won the prize. A sure horse, and good bot tom, notwithstanding.” “But be careful, says he how you ride through the piny-woods—the water of this section don’t agree with his wind 1 .” You have often brought to my notice the changes which climate effects on the races of animals.— But I do not remember any instance adduced by you more remarkable than the one I met with soon after I left the Major’s. You well know what a sleek, prim, puritanical race, your pedagogues are in Vermont. The unchanged descendants pf the precise puritans of the 17th century; in ap pearanee, formal, stiiT, conoeited, and unearthly. But they % are a different animal altogether, here. I met one on the way to his birchen empire. He was a little man, but I dare say, a great gemne— about 4 feet 7, in heighth, and 3feet in girth—eyes of a most lustrous aspect—cheeks full and rubi cond nose red *His plight not so commendable as I could have wished, for the ho nor of his profession, his nether garments being somewffiat dilapidated, lyid the two inches of linen which should have appeared, entirely secreted be hind the folds of a red bandanna handkerchief.— In one hand he cairied a well worn volume, and from his right hand coat pocket, there peer. ed forth the neck of a black bottle. Is Is this, do you imagine, a distinct race, or is it merely a variety, produced by the influence of climate ? Notwithstanding the cautionary warning of the Major, kept on my way, without let. or hindrance till I got into she State of Emanuel. Here I came to a place wdidre was held a magistrates’ court. “ Holloa!” says one, stop and take a drink.” Thank you, says I, no occasion. u But you must stop and hear the Governor’s Speech,” says he : no man passes here without hearing the Gov ernors Speech and tasting his whiskey.— Huzza ror Governor S . Damn Troup and the treaty!” Thus saying, he took me from the horse, and led me through the crowd to the front of the Court House, where a dark gray man, with short legs and a wide mouth, and who wore pepper and salt homespun, and ra ther a cdpper colored nose (by w hich sign I sus pected him of being a Candidate)--mounted in a gingerbreadcart, making a speech to his consti tuents, as he called the people. “ I hold,” says he, “ that bonevolunce is the first business of le gislature men ; and how can w 7 e show 7 ourselves Christian folks, if w r e don’t comfort all the wi dows. and provide for those unfortunate creatures who come into the world without any fa thers to look arter ’em ? Han’t I been a Sin-a-tor twenty years, and don’t I know w 7 hat’s what; I am clear, fellow citizens,for giving a draw to all il legitimates,” “ Huzza ! for the governor,” shouted a huridred at once ; “ the governor's treat” cried others ; * and w 7 hat with drinking and shouting, the balance of the governor ‘s speech was entirely lost. Soon, how r ever, a tall skinny looking fellow 7, w 7 ith a face the color of fresh bees-wax, throwing off his coat and mounting a stump, “ Troup, says he, is the greatest man in Georgia, and Clark is a Tory and Yazooist! lam the best man on the hill, and can w hip any five of ye !” With that he swung his long bony arms to and fro in token of scorn and defiance ; lie w 7 as not, hcw 7 ever, suffer ed to remain long without an antagonist; a little shrimp of a man, about the size of a forked carrot jumped into the ring which w 7 as already formed, and, crowing like a cock, “ Troup,” says he, “ is a dammy gog, and the son of a tory ; didn’t he insult jinral Government, and kill Mlntosh ?” “ A fair fight,'’ cried by the bye-standers, “give ’em room —a fail fight!” In the bustle of preparation I made my escape, and found my horse Old Treaty ; but the devil of a trick someone had played him in my absence ; his ears w T ejre cropt close to his head, and his tail was shaved as clean as the back of my hand ! Made the best of my w r ay, without asking ques tions ; but, ip my hurry, took the w 7 rong road, and arrived here before I found my mistake. I am yours, to command, ROGER LONGFELLOW.

Liverpool pspers* bad been received in New- York to tne evening of the sth May, and Lo, ion to the (Jth, one day later than received at this place. The reports of the Markets are not later than those tarnished by the Octavia. A rumour prevailed at the west end of the town yesterday, (to which, however, we do not attach the least credit,) that Earl Grey was to come into Power immediately, and to have the Bureau of tho Foreign Dopaatment.

Billing's Liverpool Advertiser of the oth, says: “ The accounts from tho East are this week of j* very pacific character, and the impression has be-, guu to prevail that hostilities will not, after all take place between Russia and Turkey. The ad-* vices from the British Ambassador at Vienna re-, present, that the councils of the three Alied Pov/, ers are again in acebrflanoe, with regmd to the conduct to be pursued towards Turkey. This does not go to the ext ent of assuring us that Russia wall not. occupy the provinces north of the Danube, but it at least si lows that the Emperor must, have given a positive pledge not to pursue hostilities for* the purpose of conquest.” A Congress at Vienna, to deliberate on Easierq affairs, was confidently spoken of yesterday after noon at both ends of the town, though nothing of the kind is mentioned in the latest advices the Austrian capital, by the arrivals of yesterday 4 whence the most recent dates reach down to thq 25th ult. according to which the bustle and alarm occasioned by tfie warlike preparations of Ruusia, had subsibed. LONDON, May 5. Paris papers of the 3d reached us hist night.— They contain rumours that the Russians havq crossed the Pruth. The bill to repeal the Test act, had passed both houses of Parliament, but it appears had not ycs received the Royal sanction, and a rumor prevail* ed that the King did not approve of the measure, The New Times of the sth. asserts that the King resolved at first to refuse his assent, and it waq not until the Ministers one and all tendered their resignations, that his Majesty agreed to give tliq subject a re-consideration. Thp Catholic question was to be brought for* ward by Sir F. Burdett on the Bth. The St. Petersburgh Gazette of the loth April, makes no allusion whatever to the military prepa, rations of Russia, nor to the intended departure of the Emperor from his capital, The following well merited compliment on Judge Schley, copied from the Augusta Chroni, ole, contains the sentiments, we believe, of foqr fifths ot the people of the Middle Circuit. Speaking of the accumulated mass of business which the time prescribed does pot admit of be. ing acted on, the Editor observes, “All that could possibly be done under present circumstances, has not been ne glected, and much praise is due to his Ho* nor, Judge Schley, for the unceasing assi% duity with which lie has applied himself to the laborious duties of his office, The un favorable auspices under which this gentle* man came into office—when he was but lade Known, at a ti ne of high party excite ment, and in opposition to a rival and pre* decessor who was deservedly a favorite of the Bar and ofthe people—arrayed against him a strong and ex ensive feeling ofpre* judice ; and the manner in which he ha* so successfully triumphed over every inimi* cal feeling, anu gained the respect, esteem and warm approbation of many who were then his bitterest opponents, is a source of the highest credit to himself and the most hear tfelt gratification to his friends pi is inflexible firmness and impartiality, patient and unwavering attention, close investiga tion, extensive legal knowledge, and care ful and correct decisions, are the frequent theme of conversation with those who have witnessed his official conduct ; and so much have they won upon the good feel ings of the public, that we are confident a much stronger feeling of disapprobation would now he excited against turning him out of office than once existed against bringing him in, It is already whispered that he will have an opponent at the elec tion which is to take place at the next ses sion of the Legislature ; and though he might possibly succeed against him with those who are removed from hisspheieof action and unacquainted with his merits, it is by no means likely that he could after wards succeed in reconciling the people of his Judicial circuit to the change Naval.—We learn from the Philadelphia Chro nicle, that recruiting stations so: the U. States’ Navy have been established at Carlisle, Chambers* burg, and Hamburg, under the general command of the gallant Capt. Elliot, resident at Carlisle, the principal depot. We are told that this has been done at the suggestion of the Captain, having re ceived a prompt assent from Secretary Southard. The recruits, says the Chronicle, have already been numerous— and of a character far better en titled to confidence than that of many who have, been picked up, on the seaboard, for the naval ser vice. Drunkards and idlers are rejected. It is certainly a novel idea, to seek eveir lands men and ordinary * ;amen, in the interior of the country, among the sons of respectable farmers, most of whom, probably, have never seen a ship, or dipped their feet in the water of the ocean.— But they are good stuff, and we doubt not, many among these youths will soon learn to “ hand, reef, and steer,” as w ell as the best. Employment is given to many of the inhabitants of these towns, in rigging out the recruits in the naval costume, with straw hats, &c. and we un derstand that, wdien thus equipped, they attract much attention. The success of the experiment seems to bo un questionable. If such numbers enlist when the canals, the coalmines,and tfie approaching harvest, offer abundant sources of employment, many more may be expected in those seasons when w r ork is worse paid, and less easily procured. These proofs of the inclination of our people to this ser vice ars highly gratifying, and give strong assurances fcha| the glory of our navy is not destined to diminish, Massacji usetts Rail Road. —Governor Linooln. of Mass, reeommends that the Hudson River Raif Road be speedily commenced.
