It will appear by the following paragraph from
the Georgia Journal, that there are other sec- |
tions of the State who 6cem little disposed to
acquiesce in the Madison nomination :
From the Georgia Journal.
Gentlemen—l find in your last paper, that the
visitors at the Madison Springs have nominated a
ticket for Congress. Now, l am not opposed to
caucus nominations, where the whole state is re
presented ; but I protest against a nomination
made almost entirely by the Northern counties,
and they probably, not fairly represented.
I shall vote for the first five on the Madison,
and in lieu of the two last shall vote for Dr. Wil
liamson and Col. Brailsford. lam not governed
by sectional prejudices, but where the candidates
have equal claims, I would take them from differ
ent, parts of the state, and I h<pe that the coun
ties east of the Oconee will have liberality enough
to vole for the two gentlemen 1 have named, and
I hope the counties west will have pride enough
to doit. A FRONTIER MAN. j
We should also prefer the individuals here na
med to several on the caucus list *, and we do
hope their claims will be fairly .considered. It
would also seem but an act ot Justice, that the ,
important selection of the state beyond the Oak- ,
mulgee should be considered in the selection of re
presentatives. And while Mr. Cuthbcrt possesses
claims inferior to no one, there are strong rea*
sons, on the score of equal representation, why
he should be elected.
We have received from a Piny-woods friend of .
our 9, who occasionally dabbles in politics, the fol- i
lowing communication, containing his views in ‘
regard to several candidates now before the peo
ple. He seems to be of opinion that it may edify
several of his neighbors.
COMMUNICATED.
HURRA! FOR JACKSON!
(i Let s all have a row,
At the sign of the cow.”
MEMBERS OFTHE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
Owens, senator, I vote for him because he is an
honest, independent little fellow—stands upon his
own bottom, and is not led by the nose by any |
ring-tailed scrouger. He'll be elected I reckon , as j
there is no opposition, but if there had been, he
‘would have shot a-head I expect.
REPRESENTATIVES.
Myers, Barnard and Stites—they stand too ~a
good chance, as there is no opposition. I wonder
if there would not be a mighty bustle in the camp,
If two new were to start up, aud give
them battle—l calculate there would.
CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS.
I vote for Williamson. Who would have
thought that this slim Peter, former port-physi
eian of Savannah and vender of emetics, should
now wish to leave the sound of the mortar, for the
sound of Iris voice in Congress ? He has a smart
chance of money, and that, with a littlo coaxing,
and running about may get hint in. Did hie mam
my, or his daddy, or any of his family, ever dream,
Charley, would be a member of Congress ? I ex
pect not. But, Georgia, is a capital manufactory
for them sort of creatures.
Cuthbert—a game cock of republicanism—

sled in two votes, —one, for his, and the other for
Dr. Goldsmith's sake.
Braikford—l don’t know much about him ; but
it is said he is a roarer , and a little more moderate
and independent, than most of his office-hunting
party. j
Foster.—A pretty peart, mighty considerable, ‘

but ought to be •xhibited in Congress as one of i

Elections in Maine. —Extracts of letters to the
Editor of the New-York American.
,l The election in Maine terminated on the Bth.
There was no opposition to Governor Lincoln, ;
nor to Sprague, Mclntyre, Wingate, and Ander
son, for Congress. The Senate consists of 20.
In York, they choose 3 Senators: 2 towns give
the administration 413 to 142 Jackson. Cumber
land, the only doubtful electoral district, has, in
in 11 out of 24 towns, chosen 9 administration and
4 Jackson representatives; and has given for 3
Senators in the same towns, 2016 administration, I
to 1712 Jackson. In Jvennebunk, the three admi
nistration Senators are chosen without opposition.
The votes are no criteria of the November elec
tion: as old parties, tariff, and a hundred other
considerations, have been artfully wrought into
the election. The administration majority in
*very county will exeeed by hundreds, the majo
rity for Senators.”
“ Boston , Sept. 10, 1328.—The steam-boat just

is higher than it has been for several years, and is
full of timber and lumber, fencing stuff, pump

to this is added an export duty ot seven per cent.
At a moment when so many of our countrymen
have embarked captital in the mining operations
now carrying on in Mexico, this relaxation will be
received with much satisfaction.
Competency of Witnesses. —ln the case of At
wood, vs. Walton, which was tried in the Ses
sions Court, held at Litchfield, Conn. Judge
Peters admitted a witness to testify, who was ob
jected to on the ground that he did not believe in
a future state of rewards and punishments. The
court of Errors ordered anew trial. Judge Dag
got presided, and the same witness was aeain
offered. The Judge, upon full enquiry and care
ful consideration, came to the rosult that the
witness did believe in a future state of rewards
and punishments accede therefore held him compe
tent, and he was and accordingly sworn and testi
in the case. The rul, therefore, remains estab
lished in Connecticut as it was laid down long
ago, in the case of Curtis vs. Strong, 4 Day 51.

Breach of Promise of Marriage. —An action
was tried yesterday in the Superior Court, Judge
Hoffman presiding, which excited considerable
interest. It was brought br Ellen Yates, to re
cover damages against William Le Count, for
breaking a matrimonial engagement. Mr. An
thon conducted the case for the plaintiff, Mr.
1 rice lortlie defendant. It appeared in evidence
that the parties had resided under the same roof
in the house of a mutual connexion, for nearly
seven years, and that an attachment was obsert e
between them in when the age of the plaia
tiff was only 16, and that of the defendant 19.
The proof was sufficient to ostablish the infer
ence that an engagement had been made between
them. In May last the defendant married a Miss
Heartwell. r l he counsel for the defence, in sum

ot the plaintiff ; but urged that the defendant

A case of piracy is stated to have occurred on
the 7th of May in lat. 2, S. long. 22, W. The
British vessel Clorinda, from London to Batavia,
was attacked and plundered by a piratical vessel
under Carthagenian colors. The captain fC’arew)
was confined for several hours on board the pirate,
ill used, and repeatedly threatened with death if
he did not disclose where he had concealed his mo

been stripped of every thing on

the crew. He has also taken two Portuguese

fate. —London paper.

Politics of the East. —The following ar
ticle from the Courier de Smyrne, throws
much light on the state of political affairs in
the East l
“Peihaps there never tvas, in the politi
cal world, a more complicated situation than
that of France and England at the present
moment. Both powers are deeply inter
ested in preventing Russia from crushing
the Ottoman Empire, at the very period
when it is on the eve of being re-modelled
upon a firmer basis. Both Powers are in
terested in preventing the Ruasian ascen
dancy, and yet, while they see it approach
ing, instead of offering resistance, they find
-themselves, in a manner, compelled to give
ir their aid. The positive refusal of the
Porte to admit of any meditation, places
these two Powers in a still more difficult
position.
In all preceding wars the Porte com
manded the Black Sea. His squadron, much
superior to that of the Russians, not only
protected his own shores, but also threaten
ed those of his enemies. Now, the case is
different, the Russian marine has the as
cendancy in that sea, and gives that pover
.the great advantage of keeping up its com
munications along th£ sea board. The
Russian fleet aciing in concert with the ar
my, may seize upon Varna and Bourgas,
supply provisions, and thus dispense with
the necessity of supporting the army by
subsistence drawn from its roar detach
ments, Hence it may neglect the strong
for tresses, even the famous position of
Choumla, ffuu will thus be enabled to
penetrate the interior with great rapidity.
T tie celebrated barrier of the Balkan will
oppose but a trifling obstacle, when the
Russians are free from the necessity of
transporting with them a heavy train of
provisions. They can take from Varna
sufficient for a few days only, being certain
of finding on the other side at Bourgas,
enough to satisfy all their wants. The*
Russian army then will place the Porte in
great danger, being only 120 miles from
Constantinople, on the m in road leading
to it, resting its left upon Bourgas for sup
plies, its right upon Adrianople, the second
city of the empire, in the. midst of a most
fertile country.
The peace with Persia leaves another
road open to the heart of the O toman
empire and the provinces of Asia are
equally menaced with those of Europe.
Th* Russians have n double end in view,
1 hey proclaim that their honor is engaged
to execute the treaty of London, and in
this way they pledge the honor of their
allies. They march to avenge private
wrongs, and their movements must neces
sarily be too rapid to allow of political
reflections. Their policy is, by the rapidity
of their march, to anticipate the discussions
which it might occasion This is the more
obvious, from the three hypothetical cases
which the Minister put, at the conferences,
at London; Ist, enher the three powers
will act together, or 2dly, Russia will act
alone, with the approbation of the two
others; or 3dly, if deprived of the aid or
countenance of her allies, she will, never
theless, act for herself; but in that case, as
she receives assistance from none, and de
pends upon her own resources, she cannot
be expected to consult, in the execution of
her plans,any thing but her own iuterest
and convenience.
It is di'ficult to say which of these three
cases is now acted upon; bur we can tell
the Porte, and all his real friends should
tell him, even at the risk of his displeas
,Jre that, whatever may be the wishes and
intentions ol France and England towards
him however powerfully their intents
nay be opposed to the invasion of his
kingdom, they are compelled to assist in I
executing the treaty of Lonti< n . Let the
Porte recognize the principle of media
tion. If he agrees to that he will obtain
immediately a strong support. Austria,
with her army in motion; France and Eng
land, with their squadrons, strengthing the
Bosphorus, aud sweeping the Black sea,
would soon change the face of affairs-
U hen we know, that one single word from
the Poite would instantly create a strong
alliance in ins favor, we naturally ask,
what fatal advice prevents Him from pro
nouncing it.
FRANCE.
The French papers, says the Sun of the
23th, contain the report of the commission
appointed to examine the proposition for
‘he impeachment of the late Ministry
This document is comprised in 15 articles,
declaring the ministry culpable, and re
commending an impeachment for pecula
tion and treason. The presentation of this
“report excited unusual, interest and curi
i ositv in Paris—so much so, that every cot
ner of the Chamber of Deputies was lite~
rally crammed with Peers, Pueresses, Am
bassadors, &,c. No les* than 47 havii yin
ral/yed their names to speak against the
late ministry, and only 13 in then favor.
In the French Chamber of Deputies, on
the 23d July, M. Hyde Neuville, Minis
ter of Marine, entered on the Budget of
the Marine, in a speech which was receiv
ed with great applause. The naval art, he
said, had been for years jhe object of his
meditations —he had studied it on the seas
and in ports. He commenced with pay
ng high compliments to M. de Chabrol,
- his predecessor, “ who founded the Admi
j ralty, the crews of the line, and the mari
j time prefectures ;’ but “ these institutions
j so long desired, and which it has been so
j difficult to obtain—so powerful is the force
j of routine, even when the insufficiency of
it is demonstrated —these institutions, which
I will say have become of vital importance
are onlv in their birth. The foundations
have been laid ; we must finish the conso
lidation of the edifice.” The following is
given as the present state of the .French
navy t —We have afloat and constructing
336 vessels, of which 53 are ships of the
line, and 53 frigates. Os these 53 ships

SPAIN.
Some disturbances are said to have
broken out in Bpain ; several bands of gue
rillas and others have declared for Don
Carlos, in opposition to the reigning mon
arch. It was expected that some such step
as this would be the result, or the success
of Don Miguel in Spain. This insurrec
tion is treated by most of the Journals as an
affair of little consequence.
The partial disturbances in Spain are
mentioned in one of the Paris papers. In
Catalonia there were three or four bands
of disaffected persons who were unable to
attempt any thing because they were pur
sued by r the troops, and ill received by the
inhabitants There are some parties of
disaffuerrd in Old Castile, and one band

PORTUGAL.
The following is a translation of the Of
ficial notice of the removal ofithe blockade
of Oporto, addressed to the foreign agents :
—Tire motives which had determined the
blockade of :he city of Oporto having hap
pily ceased, by its due obedience and sub
ection to the government of his faithful
majesty, his majesty has determined that
such blockade be raised by giving free ad
mission to all vessels that may make for
that port, which I communicate to you for
your knowledge.’ —God preserve you—
Palace of Adjuda, 13th July 1828.
The Courier of the 24th, contains the
following remarks ou the affairs of this dis
tracted kingdom.
All the accounts which are received now
from Portugal are calculated to excite feel
ings of regret and indignation—regret that
so just a cause as the Constitutionalists had
should have terminated so lamentably—in
dignation, that usurpation should have been
attended with such triumph and success.■-*-
Lisbon presents a most revolting spectacle,
—rnnme and cruelty on the part of the Go
vernment ; fear and submission on the part
of the inhabitants. The prisons are lite
rally gorged with victims.. Innocence and
guilt, are confounded in the same sweeping
proscription Infancy is as little spared
as manhood—and the decrepitude of age,
little as the vigour of youth. Arrests come
in aid of the impoverished treasury, and
the richest are taken up as the most likely
to redeem their persons fi oiii imprisonment
by the surrender of their purses. The
confiscation of the property of those who
remained faithful to Don Pedro, to whom
Don Miguel had sworn allegiance and’fidel
ity has been ordered, and it is hoped that
large sums may be derived from the estates
of the patriots who have fled from the
country, and who form the flower of the
Portuguese nobility.
The fate of the Constitutional troops,
after their evacuation of O/iorto has ex
cited equal nxiety and pity. And that
feeling will not he lessened when our read
ers are iuformed, that though their generals
were no longer at their head, they did not
give up the noble conflict without the most
I desperate resistance—they fought every
; inch of the ground to the frontiers of Spain;
beyond which they sought an asylum—har
assed by fatigue, but faithful to loyalty
and hoi or to the last. After the evacua
tion of Oporto, they took the road to Ga
lici . On he 6ih inst. they attacked Don
MigueFs troops at *even in the morning,
and continued the Battle till three in the af
! ternoon, when they retired from Valdestc
and St. Joan de Campo, and as we infer
continued their march towards the frontier,

July for the Mediterranean. It was uoder-l
stood another squadron of about ffie same

after. A private letter from Londoo,
states that the despatch of so large a naval
force Irom Russia to theMediterraneaucsfr
ed much sensation, and it was believed an
equal force would be shortly sent from
England to the same destination.
With a view to a more rapid system of
operations, the Emperor of Russia baser,
dered the Imperial Russian Guards to join
the army of Prince W ittgenstein by forced
marches. This information has been ton
