We shall then expose to sale in Macon, to the highest bidder, in conformity with a late act of the General Assem bly : All the town lots net heretofore disposed of; being upwards of one hundred in number; on ‘he * f? tein side of the river : among them are twelve adjoining the river, and a few other choice lots for business. The residue are in more retired situa tions, and generally afford good building sites in a pleasant and growing part of the town. Forty-two gardening lots of 10 and 20 acres cich; laid out from 1 to 1 1-2 miles distant from the town in two ranges around the Western Com- ! nion. Also, twenty eight lots on the Eastern side: that is to sav, 4 of twenty, Bof ten acres, and 1 of one acre each These last include the place some- , times known as Newtown ; and will be sold, sub ject to certain leases from the United States, to expire next January. The residue of the lands in the two reserves, ire laid out in tracts of 100 acres, and fraction'll parts of such tracts. Os these, the uplands will be next offered ; the last numbers first; beginning with those on the western side. On Wednesday the 22d of October next, at 11 o'clock A.

The particular numbers that will be sold on each day cannot be specified ; but it is intended to put up Re several kinds and descriptions m the order here Mentioned. The Reserves are generally well watered and tentfuaseveral good mill seats The area of the thole cannot be exactly known until the plaiting is completed; but twenty-one thousand acres is fee estimated quantity contained in both Reserves tnd fiie adjoining fractions, exclusive of the town surveys. Perhaps no body of land of the same tltent can be fburld that embraces a ireutci va- | riety in its surface, soil and timber. Situated just ! id that region where the pine of the lower country j changes to the oak and hickory of the upper : it j includes both these growths, and soils in most of feeir varieties; in some portions entire, in others •t'ergpersed or blended.

We are as warmly and decidedly attached to State Rights as the most open-mouthed clamorer of the new school can be. We would be as prompt in defending them, and as jealous in their preser vation, did we really conceive them in danger of j being infiinged. But we are not disposed, mere ly for a name—however high it may be—merely for a pretence, however specious—to run the risk of breaking up the foundations of our government, of overthrowing the most sacred institutions of i our country, before we know what that nam^ . means, and what those pretences are. Those politicians who wish to produce an ex | citement in the public mind assert that the rights ms the States are in danger ‘From what quarter is the danger apprehended ? who threatens them ? ; Is it the House of Representatives of the United States ? The House of Representatives is com posed of the people of the several States. Will the people trample on their own rights ? The members of the House are identified in feelin^ j # ** - and interests with the States to which they be long. Their property, their friends, their kin dred, all exist in the different states; their affec tions centre there—and can it be supposed that l they will conspire against their own interests, their kindred and friends ? And for what would they do this ? Not for themselves, because they can exist as a part of the General Government, j only through the will of the people of the states, I whom, in that case, - they will have abused. Af ter they shall have trampled on the rights of the states, then they return again to the body of the people, and en them, their friends and posterity, fall all the evils of their wickedness ! Can it bo supposed that the members of the House of Re | presentatives, men who have been selected lor ; tiicir virtue and intelligence, will pursue a course like this ? No one in his senses can seriously be- ( ; lieve it. But is it the United States Senate which threa tens to trample on the rights of t4e states ? The | Senators are the Represenlives of the sovereignty of the states; selected for the purpose of uphold ing their rights in the councils of the nation; they are, in fact, the agents of the states—gov erned by the directions of the State Legislatures- If. therefore, the rights of the states are imfring ed through them —the infraction will be the work of the states themselves. , Is it the President who is about to annihilate the rights of the states.? The President can do nothing without the aid and the sanction of the ! two houses of congress. Before lie can execute a law, congress must first enact it, and provide : the means of its enforcement. I!is hands arc : powerless, unless supported by the sovereigty of the states in the senate, and the voice of the peo ple in the house. Can it be feared that these two •separate bodies will both conspire to annihilate I that power through which only they politically exist ? Such fears cannot be seriously entertain *■. ~ The clamor, therefore, which certain politicians j have raised, about the rights of the states having j been Iran pled on by the General Government j is a mere trick. The fact does not exist. Neither does the danger of it. It is a phantom of the • imagination, conjured up by political jugglers, fir ’ the purpose of forwarding the schemes of a party. The politicians of the “State Rights” school ! deny the power of the General Government to j appropriate money for works of internal improve- j i meiit, such as constructing roads, canals, im proving water courses, &c. ’ As the people of this section of the State feel a strong interest in the improvement of the channel , of the Savannah River, which is now in progress j at the expense of the United States, and as they ! would net wish to see this important work defeat ed through the interference of the “State Rights” • men, it is a matter of moment that the sentiments of the candidates for Congress on this subject j should be known. From the doctrines and sentiments which Mr Gilmer held forth in his speeches during the last j session, we presume that he is a forward disciple of Governor Giles and Dr. Cooper, and that he be longs to the Waltcrborough fraternity. “I (says ; he in his speech of Mi'rch 7) deny that this Gov ernment has any such power— [the power to ap propriate money for works of internal improve incut] —and believing as I do, &c. it becomes my duty to resist, Ac.” This language is very expli cit—scarcely less so than that adopted at Walter horough ; and ought not to recommend him to ! the support of those who feel an interest in the . co nmercial prosperity of Savannah. We should like to have the sentiments of some other candidates on this head. We are happy to perceive from the following extract ofa letter from a friend in Cliailcston, in the correctness of which we place the utmost de pendence, that there is at present but iittle ground for the rumors which are circulating in regard to the health of that city. “This city is note healthy ; not more than two or three cases of Yellow Fever, one death yester day and one expected to day.” Tt will appear from the Report cf the Board of Health, that Savannah continues remarkably ! h .a’tliy. We doubt if there is a town in the Uni ted States, of the like population, where the citi zens have enjoyed more uninteruptf u health than have the citizens of Savannah during the present summer. The case of the wreckers against the British Hi in Charlotte, came up before the Court of Ad miralty yesterday forenoon. This vessel, it will be recollected, was from the Island of Jamaica, bound to Bristol, (Eng.) run on Carislord Reef, and was got. off by wreckers and brought to tin; port; end ♦his action brought for salvage: Th< Court awarded 82500. A motion fora new tria* j was made by the plaintiff’s attorney, which was I granted. SA VANN All; THURSDAY HORNING, SEPTEMBER 4, 1828. KENTUCKY ELECTION. The National Intelligencer says, “We have al ready sufficient authority to assure our readers of the triumph of the friends of the Administration.” After giving the returns of 69 counties, the Edi tors add—“ Twelve counties remain to be heard from, which are not expected materially to vary the result. So that Mr. Metcalfe has succeeded by a majority of about three thousand cotes.’’ When it is recollected that a twelve month ago, there was a large majority in this State in favor of Jackson, and that now there is a majority of 3,000 in favor of the Administration —it will appear evi dent that there has been a strong reaction in favor df the Administration in that section of the coun try ; and that the current of popular opinion is still rolling onward. We look, tfierefire, upon the electoral vote of Kentucky for Mr. Adams as a settled matter. CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS. ELECTION ON TIIE FIRST MONDAY IN OCTOBER NEXT. T. U. P. CHARLTON, of Chatham.

Xcw Cotton. —The second load of new Cotton brought to Augusta this season, (says the Augus- ; ta Chronicle of the 2?th August) was received at the warehouse of Mr. John C. Holcombe, on the 22d inst. from the plantation of Turner Clanton, Esq. in Columbia county. It is very neatly pack ed, and averages about 350 lbs. to a bale Another load was received on the succeeding day, the 23d, at the warehouse of Messrs. Heard j & Cook, from the plantation of Gen. D. Taylor, in Burke cnv.ty. We understand (says the same paper) agreea bly to the previous notice which appeared in this paper, the money received at the South Carolina end of the Bridge, during four days of the previ ous week after which tiie Bridge was passed into other hands, was put up at auction, to be sold for Bridge Bills, on Monday last—the amount thirty dollars—which was bid off at about seventy-live dollars in Bridge Bills. . Charleston, August 27. Cotton—new crop. —Yesterday afternoon a wag on load of Cotton, new crop, was received by Messrs John Robinson, Son Cos. from Nash Roach, Esq ; s plantation, in Barnwell District.— j This is several days earlier than any new Cotton * has been received in this city, for some years.— The quality is said to be excellent. Another small lot of Cotton was received in King street this morning from the same District. Southern Patriot. j More Luck at Cohen’s Office. —The capital pkize of ten thousand DOLLARS, in tire Maryland State Lottery, 4th class, (the drawing of which was received last evening) was sent by Messrs Cohen &, Brothers, No. 109 East Bay, to a gentle man in Augusta. The following Capital Prizes, lof ,$2,000,2 of SSOO, and Bof SIOO, were sold at Cohen s OJ/ice in Baltimore. This Lottery was drawn on the Odd and Even System.— ib. j Saratoga Springs —Tt appears from the gener al register, that 985 strangers, arrived at six of the public houses during the weekending on Sun day evening. If to this be added those who arriv ed at the other houses, the whole number would not fall short of 1200. There are now on the re gister 932 more names than were on the register last year at this date. — Com. Advert. Daring Bobbery. —The store of Mr Toseph Mo lyneaux, No. 222 Broadway, was Altered by means of a false key, yesterday afternoon, between 3 and 4 o’clock, and watches to the amount of about 500 dollars stolen therefrom. It is astonishing to what a degree of impudence the bgiit-fmgered gentry have arrived, when, in the face ot open day, and in the greatest thorough fare of the city, no , human habitation is secure from their intrusion. ( Xew York paper. Free Bridge— The Board of Aldermeh kav concurred with the Common Council in the ap pointment of a joint committee, with full powers to accept from the Boston Free Bridge Corpora tion the surrender of the Free Bridge, with its abutments, upon compliance by said corporation j with the terms and conditions on which the city agreed to accept the same ; and non-concurred in referring the subject to arbitrators. j Boston paper. Canal Breaches. —A gentleman from Utica in forms us that the banks of the Canal have given way in five dilferenLplaccs between Utica and be- | neca River ; and so’sudden were some of them, : that one boat near Canastota, was taken several rods into the woods, and two or three without the banks. The water was over the Dyke at Utica, and several bridges carried away. Albany Daily Adver. The Canal. — By the arrival from the West, we 1 learn that several breaches have been made in the Canal, in consequence of a sudden and remaika ! file freshet. The canal bank has given way about ! one mile above Oriskany, and also about two miles above Rome, and report says, at another place, farther west, on this level. From Rome to Little Falls, great damage has been sustained by the destruction of hay and grain, and carrying away of mill dams. A Commercial Line boat ried into an adjoining field, through the breach near Or iskany, and cannot be got in again at that ! place. The extent of the damage above Rome we have not learned. A correspondent says the breach at Oriskany will be repaired in two or three days. In addition to the damage done to the canal, the roads are generally much injured. The rain commenced on Thursday, and continued through the night.— Albany Argus. IV j Letters have been received by H. A. B>. Dear born, Esq. collecter of the port of Boston, from the Department of State at Washington, covering a copy of a letter from Alexander Buxton. Eaq. Con sul at Cadiz, relative to the seizure of the pirates who were supposed to have destroyed the ship To paz of this port, and several other vessels, It states “a Bill of Exchange was found in the pos sesion of the piartes, (then under examination at Cadiz ) drawn by a house in Boston payable to the supercargo of the Topaz, and the word “cancelled,” marked thereon,” which Bill of Exchange is known j to have been sent out in that vessel. It also states, that “a piece of paper, or a leaf of a book was seen, with these words written upon it .“Japan, Canton, to Boston, Eeb. 6, 182*.” They have confessed that they murdered the Captain and three men ta ken from the English ship Morning Star. Balt. Patriot j We learn from a New’ York paper, that a mer chant of that city had sent to London to obtain in- . urance on property slopped in a good vessel from j export in the West Indies for New York, the in mranc® offices in the latter city having defined . to underwrite, or to name a price, in consequence of the dangers attending navigation during the the hurricane month*. Tho editors, add, that this speaks well of the prudence of the institu tion, but not of their accommodation. The Dutchman’s Showe*. —Our steady rain has been interrupted by two or three days of good ! weather, pleasantly cool. We have found a good description of the previous rnoutlu in the Dutch man’s weather Journal, “Had dander shower for three weeks, and then it set in for a settlgd rain.” Hampden Journal. Stage Robbery. —A daring and successful at tempt was made on Monday night, to cut the bag < & :i g e fom the boot of the stages of the Pioneer • line, on its passage from Utica to this city. The loss was discovered a short distance this side Sos the Schenectady. The value of property lost, we have not been able to ascertain. Albany Argus.

Rector, of Mis souri.” t We have received number three, of a newspa per from Washington, N. C. called “Freedom’s Echo.” The motto is “Man ond his cares, to me, a man, are dear.” They w ill be dearer before the publisher has echoed, many times, it is surprising to us how a man in his senses could commence a paper with this line staring him in the face.

General Scott. —The Richmond Enquirer states that the first order which was received by General Scott from General Macomb, on his reaching the West, was returned by and that he has as signed the reasons for his disobeying the order in a letter to the Secretary of War. Thomas Addis Emmett. —The Committee, re cently appointed by the City Council of N. York to select an appropriate place for the erection of a monument to the memory of this distinguished patriot, orator, and jurist, has reported in favor of allowing it to be placed in the Bowling Green. The National Intelligencer says—“Commodor Creighton, of the Navy, arrived in this city on Friday last, on a visit of business, preparatory to his departure for the Brazil station, in the frigate Hudson. ’ Ilenry A.

Gold. —Several hundred dollars have been bro’t to this town (says the Camden Journal of the 9th inst.) within the last two months, from Chester field ; and the Kershaw Mines are beginning to produce sold in some quantity—we have also heard similar accounts from Lancaster. 1 A letter from a highly respectable Clergyman in Cincinnati, to his friend in New’ York, gives a particular account of one of tiie greatest revivals of religion ever Known in that country. About six hundred persons had already become the subjects of it in that city and the neighboring country— and it was still progressing. The company engaged in boring for salt-water at Montpelier, Vt. have penetrated the solid rock to the depth of 383 feet.

We understand (says the New York Daily Ad vertiser) that measures have been adopted, and are now in a state of forwardness, to build a se cond Church for seamen in this city, near the N River—w r e have little doubt that it will be the means of much benefit to those for whose use it is more immediately intended. J It is stated that Mrs. Goilusha, of Monmouth, Maine, now 88 years cf age, has had, within the last three years, an entire set of new teeth, anew head of hair, and her sight, of v Inch she had been f, r some time deprived, has been so perfectly re stored that she is now able to read the finest print without the aid of spectacles. At no time (says the Philadelphia United States Gazette) were our builders more active, than dur inf*- the present summer. We are not able to state the number of houses now’ being built in the city and liberties; but it is certainly greater than in any former year; and the two last seasons were really remarkable for the accession to the list of tenements. Yet, it is very difficult to find a dwelling house to be let.

Some of the contractors are employed in the construction of houses for the accommodation of a large furce—others are actively at wmrk, and in the urse of a few days,it is expected that this portion of the road will exhibit a very lively scene. The contracts have been taken, in general, at fair prices. This portion of the line will be pressed on with energy ; and, in the mean time, every effort is making to effect the location westward, so as to enable the Directors to put under contract, early this fall, another division of the road of from fif teen to twenty miles.— Balt. Gaz. \bth inst. Monsieur I’Abbe de Pompieres, in moving in the French Chamber of Deputies for the impeach ment of M.

By the arrival of the Lord Gambier, from Liv erpool the Quebec papers have advices from that city to the 3d July, inclusive. They are unim portant. says the New York Commercial Adver tiser. Such extraots'as they furnisli are <nven be low. London, July I.—French papers state that the Russian army having crossed the Danube, has had several rencontres with the Turks. The Turkish garrison of Brahilow having been reinforced had made a sortie anu driven tho Rus sians from their w r orks, making 500 prisoners, whose heads they are stated to have struck off, and sent them to adorn the walls of the Seraglio ; this part of the account is discredited, as it is be lieved the example set by the Emperor Nicholas, on a former occasion, would have induced a differ ent conduct on the part of the Turks.* London , July L—Consols B'. $ • Lord Francis Levison Gower, and Mr. Ilenry Hobhouse, have been called to the Privy Council, the latter, it is said, at the express desire of 1113 Majesty.

It was generally said that Parliament would be prorogued about the 22d July, and it was expect ed that His Majesty would do so in person. In the House of Commons, on the 30th June, on the motion, in Committee of Supply, to postpone the Army Estimates, Sir Janies xMclntosh entered at some length into the question of the recogni tion of the blockade of Oporto, which he contend ed indicated, on the part of our Government, on acknowledgment of the power which had imposed it. Mr. Peel contended that the suspension of the functions of the Ambassador at Lisbon was suffi cient indication of the view taken by the English government of the conduct of Don Miguel, lio defended the notification of the blockade and tho terms in which it was made by the examples of Napoli de Romania and Chili. Lmrd Morpeth asked, whether, in the event of a blockade of Lisbon by the Junto of Oporto, go vernment would act as they had done by Oporto. Mr. Peel declined answering an hypothetical question. (In the House of Lords, on the same evening, similar questions were put, afld similar answers received.) Mr. D W. Karvey, in presenting a petition from 5,000 weavers, praying that the protection ass .rded to agriculturalists should be extended to them, said it was intention, in the next session, tq move for a committee to enquire into the sfa e of the laboring classes. Mr. F. Lewis said. the cour <a the House would have to pursue next session, would be gradually to follow up the principle.! of free trade, without prejudice to existing interest?. In the House of Lords, on the Ist July, Earl Grey presented a petition asrairist the restriction of the small notes circulation, which 1%1 to a dis cussion of some length, in which the Premier said that the measure which awaited heir Lordship's decision was but a completion of the bill of 1626, and for his own part lie did not believe the circula tion of the country would be diminished by tliA suppression of small notes. *This in no doubt an exaggerated account of tha game softie o r which we gave the particulars from the papers received by an arrival from Havre, ia. which the Turks. retreated, wdth no very heavy * loss on either 6ide. ’ ■■ 1 .. .1 j.
