Strong efforts have been made by a few diku niomsts in this State, to revive again those angry feelings, wdiich, a lew years since, raged with so muck bitterness ; and enlist them in anew war, not only against the Union, but the individual Htates of the Union, under the pretence of con tending for State rights, and Southern interests. Many of the individuals who were leaders of the Troup party in the struggle of 182*5, still openly avow the intention oi passing a law to prohibit the introduction of Nortiiern manufactures, and Wes. tern hogs and horses ; and they call upon their old associates, and conjure them by their fealty to the Troup party, by the remembrance of tlieir former hatred towards their opponents, and their exulta tion on recent success, to rally again, and act with concert in the approaching elections, and during the coming session of the Legislature. From these preparatory steps, it maybe conjec tured. that there are some few’ individuals who are really mad enough to attempt to carry these pro hibitory measures into practice ; and that a bill to prohibit the introduction of Northern manufac. tures, and Western productions, will be really in troduced ihto the Legislature. Though attempts will be made to make it a party question ; to re vive old distinctions, and to carry the measure on the strength of old party prejudices—yet, that such a bill will pass, we cannot believe. Although that party which opposed the admin istration of < Tovernor Troup became extinct as a party, on his retirement from office ; and although the administ ration of the present governor has not-encounte red any thing like systematic opposi tion—vet we have no reason to believe that those who opposed the measures ot Governor Troup f. ora principle , w'ould look on with indifference, or now cease to st ;pport the Union of the States, and oppose “those <k ctrines and measures which tend to the overthra .v of the Constitution, and to in volve Os in awa r with our neighbors. In fact, w T e believe that shot ild such a measure be attempted, every true friend of his country would rally in de fence of the U nion ; and that the two parties would be directl 7 at issue again : not in regard to , the relative me? Its of Clark or Troup—Bpt on the j ! question wliethi r wo shall abide by the Constitu tion, or set up fo. r ourselves. On this questi >n, \ve should not despair of the issue. In such a contest, Clark and Troup would be forgotten ; at and the distinctions of C tar kite and Trouper, would be merged in those of Unionist and Disunionisti . The discrepancy between the statements of the National IntelJ igencer and the United States Telegraph on the subject of the Ohio election, cannot have K* en overlooked by those who take tiie least inters st in the matter. We have judg ed the Intel iig encer, however, much the best au thority, and 1 .are copied their statements in pre ference to tit >se of the Telegraph. Expeiience J has given us confidence in the honesty and candor >of their rein/ rks. Nothing, however, is more un cel tain thar , the result of an election ; and wrong estimates u ay be formed and conclusions drawn, with the b# st intentions. The ac counts from Oiiio continue to be very contradic torv. The Intelligencer speaks very coufideu ly of the success of the Administration Ticket, while the Telegraph, with equal confi dence, claims entire success fi.r the friwids of Jack?/ a. A few days, however, will clear up all umv’ taint}-. I V’e felicitate ourselves and the public, on the pr< .spect of a speedy close of the present election cj mipaign ; which for the untiring zeal with which i-- has been waged, and the bitterness of spirit * which it has awakened, has exceeded all that has gone before it. Both the people who have read, and the presses which have daily groaned under their load of scandal and abuse, require, we should imagine, a short respite from their labors. Yl hat ever may be the result of the election —whoever may have succeeded in the contest, all peaceable men must be gratified, when the din of the battle is over, and the public mind is sufiered to sink again into tranquility and repose. STATE OF TIIE MARKET. Blue Ruin, and Anti-fog mat ics in general. — The business in these staple articles lias been very animated during the past week, and several ex tensive wholesale dealers have made heavy in vestments The demand continues steady, and a slight rise may be expected, unless large importa tions should arrive. Cash. —We have lately heard considerable en quiry for this article, and found the supply insuf ficient for the demand. A few parcels of approv ed brands would meet with a very ready sale. ) Conscience. —This article has all been bought up on speculation, and there is none now in first hands. Dengue. The crop of the present season has been very abundant, and our market rather crowd ed with the article. The consequence is, that speculators are rather shy of making investments, and the stock on hand moves off heavily.. j Oust. Since the late dry weather, this article has been rising, and heavy lots go olf daily at a considerable advance. Honesty. —There arc a few stale lots of the old crop still on hand ; but probably of an indifferent j quality, as it is generally refused by the dealers ; while strictly prime of the present year’s growth ; is much enquired af\er. j Industry Scarce ; prices nominal. ! Mora ity. —Some very pretty samples have been shown us, within the last few days ’, but there is little or no enquiry for the article, and the stock jon band is inferior. The traders are afraid to in ! vest, and the only demand is for home consuinp j t o jvYics The market is quite bare of the article, ; at present., and the dealers must stop, unless soon supplied by fresh importations. Some attempts have been‘made to suoply_ the present demand, by domes:k manufacture ; but they have in genera failed A speculation was entered into by the Devil attached 1o our concern, for the supply oi a few leading articles of prime necessity ; but his machinery blew up in attempting to a Ui ish battle, and the enterprise was abandoned. I Politics. There have been but few transactions in this article since the Ist of October, and t e prices are merely nominal. Patriotism,—' The late . arilf produced some animation in cur market, and large lots were U. ken up on speculation by dealers, who calcuja on a scarcity, in consequence of the check foreign importations. It has been found, hone er that a supply of domestic growth, fully equa. SAVANNAH, THURSDAY HORNING, NOVEMBER 6, 1828. to the demands of nor market, has been furnished, , and the article now goes off readily at old rates. Pumpkins. —A light cargo of this delicious fruit was lately received ; but, as the demand is princi pally confined to our northern friends, and as we have no thanksgiving days in this Statj, and con sequently few pumpkin pies, it is not expected 1 there will be any scarcity in the market. Whiskey. —The extra demand for thig article, • during the election campaign, at barbacues, and anti-tariff homespun dinners, has nearly drained the market. A few shipments would readily go down. Subscribers. —The present crop conies in very freely, and meets with a steady domand. Old rates are fully maintaintained. Advertisements. —Our columns are rather bare of the article at present, yet heavy consignments are expected. FOR THE SAVANNAH MERCURY. A SHORT SERMON, FROM THE DESK OF GREY DOMINIE THE DEACON. Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan came also among them. And the Lord said unto Satan whence contest thou ? Then Satan answer ed the Lord and said, from going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. We may gather, my readers, frorrrthis portion of scripture, that satan is no idle being ; that he is ever active ; constantly hovering around the great theatre of human life, and busy in the affairs, men. We may behold him, without much stretch of the imagination, or violence to our faith, now flitting through the darkness of midnight, now walking at noon-day—ever watchful and sleep less ; ever intent, on some scheme of mischief; now we behold him engaged in some heinous crime—now again instigating some petty trans gression . But, my readers, may we not descend to parti culars, and enquire, what are the matters in which he busies himself, here amongst us? If you will permit me, 1 will point out some of them. lie visits the high and the low ; he instructs the patriot how he may pursue his own plans of am bition, and selfishly subserve bis own interests ; while, to the eyes of re multitude, his sole en deavours seem directed to the good of the people, lie teaches the politician how to mask the basest schemes under the most plausible pretence.s. He instructs the lawyer how to take fees on both sides, cheat the law and finally bamboozle both his clients. He visits our marts of commerce ; he incents frauds in the packing >f cotton; he deceives the buyer with false sa;. pies, and defrauds the seller 1 with false weights. He takes a look into the counting house of the merchant, and shows him how to overreach his neighbor or correspondent. He assists the retail er of dry goods in ptttfmg off his damaged fabrics, • and the grocer in sanding liis sugar and watering his rum. He visits the scenes of dissipation, invites to drunkenness, lewJness and profanity ; he stirretli up quarrels and causeth bloodshed- He is ever present where there is evil to be devised, or mis chief to be done, lie pays frequent visits to the idle ; lie hovers round the epicure, revels in the smoke of his cigar, and appears to the drunkard in the shape of a red nose. He passetli to and fro through the earth * and I learn, from common report, that he occasionally pops into the printing office, to discover what • mischief he may be allowed to have a finger in there ; that at one time he may be seen inditing a paragraph for the detraction of an honest name ; 1 anil then again pulling a worthless scoundrel into office and power. Sometimes lie is engaged in living a detail of events which never happened, and misrepresenting those that have. Then he will seize the pee of the politician, and by furi ous attacks on good order and government, at tempt to throw the whole political world into pie. He frequently gives account of battles which were never fought ; of murders which were never perpetrated; and frightens old women with marvellous relation of storms and shipwrecks, of 1 car*h-quakos, and terrible disasters by sea and land. Bat what will excite the especial admiration of many people, is the fact, that lie is a regular attendant at church. “ And the sons of God pre sented themselves before the Lord, and satan came also among them” —saith our text. Many will doubtless exclaim, what doeth he there ? lie assists the old miser in reckoning up his stoves, while the parson is reading his sermon; and he forms schemes for tue young spendthrift to waste his, at the same time ; he assists the old hvpocrite in inditing mock prayers; and he tunes i the voice of the profane man to sing the praises of that Being whose name lie blasphemes every day ; he weighs down the eyelids of the sleeper, and he fills the imagination of the sensaaliat with visions of unholy eri|oynient; he rivets the gaze of the youth on the forms of female beauty ; and he turns the head of the maiden with dreams of new bonnets, gaudy attire, and the soft whispers i oi sighing lovers. Indeed the period of church service, is ever a ! busy time with satan. But the reader will doubt less bo able to judge, from this specimen of his transactions, how meddlesome a being the devil is , and to foresee the necessity of continual vigil ance, lest he should also interfere in his own pe culiar affairs. j ——- To the Editor of the Mercury, Sir —In the United States Telegraph of the 17th October, which accidentally fell in my way this morning, (for I have long since abandoned the i regular reading of it) the following article under the editorial head, attracted my attention. j 9 The Dancing Bear.”—A certain personage, ’ well known in Kentucky, under this title, a bank rupt in fortune and principle, w T ho has been tor sometime past hanging on upon the contingent fund of the State Department, has been, as we have heard, from the best authority; appointed by the authority of Mr. Rush, at the suggestion of I Mr. Clay, to inspect the land office at New-Or j leans. Here is a fine specimen of Mr. Clay’s eco nomv. Thomas Curry inspector ofa land office |j n New-Orleans! We understand that the usual compensation is a per diem and travelling allow ance. About twenty four hundred dollars for the travelling expenses of Thomas Curry to examine one Think of that people of Ken tucky.” It is truly disgusting to witness the unprinci pled attempts which demagogues are constantly making to destroy the character of some ol the best men in the country. To such an extent has the Telegraph gone in the work of misrepresenta tion and slander, that its influence as a source of correct information is completely destroyed, with all except those who are determined to put down tiie present administration “though pure as the angels which stand at the right hand of God ” It is not surprising therefore, that Mr. Clay who sus tained so influential a part in the election of Mr. Adams, should be a prominent object of hatred aid persecution. In reading the article alluded •j 1 was forcibly reminded ol a rsmaiK of the la lented John Elliott, after his return from the So ate of the United States; in speaking of execu te appointments, he observed, that either in an interview with Mr. Clay before leaving Washing ton, or in a letter which he received from him af terwards, I will not be sure which—Mr. Ulay ex pressed his regret at his retirement, and assured ! him of his friendship; at the same time entreat” | ing him never to request any thing of him which , did not come within the control of Lis own de” parturient; that lie felt it his duty to be thus ex plicit with his friends, that they might know the course of conduct he intended to pursue in relation to the other departments of the government, and no more might be expected of him than lie could consistently perform. If such was his judicious determination, on his | entering into office, is it probable that he would now depart from it when his accusers are violat ing every manly duty in order to find out new grounds of jiccusation against him? Jacob Small lias been re-elected Mayor of Bal timore, by a majority of 1401 votes ov9r his com petitor, James Mosher. The votes were, for Small, 4551, fur Mosher, 3150. From the National Intelligencer. The Election in Ohio.—We have kept the paper from the press, in order to lay before our readers the latest intelligence which the mail of last night might, afford from the election in the state oi Ohio. No additional details have been furnished by it. We have the satisfaction, how evci, to give to our readers the following general estimate of the result, which wo have no doubt will be fully realized by the returns when they come in. From the Zanesville Republican, Oct. 18. There can be no doubt of the re-election of Governor Trimble, by a majority of from FIVE to TEN THOUSAND. We have every reason to believe, that, with proper exertions on the part of the friends of the Administration, the majority for their Electoral Ticket will be TEN or FIFTEEN THOUSAND. Vermont. —The government of this state, pur suant to its constitution and laws, v;as duly organi zed at the seat of government on the 9th inst. — HOn. R. B. Bates was elected Speaker of the House, and T. Merrill, Clerk. After despatching some other preliminary business, the House ad journed till the afternoon, when it again assembled, and the Governor and Council appeared in its chamber.

FROM OUR CORREPONDENT. ______ i Office of the Courier, ? Charleston, Nov. I—B1 — 8 p. m. } * Cottons. —ln long staple cotton there is nothing doing ; as yet but a few bags of the new crop have been received, and the sales of them are not sufficient to gve a tone to the market. The de mand for Upland was good during the week, at prices about the same as at our last. The princi pal sales were at 9 1-2 for good to 9 3-4 for very good lots, and 10 cents for prime; very choice ! would command something more ; wo quote 9 a [lO cents. The low state of the rivers prevents the supply accumulating. The demand is about equal to the receipts, and the stock is small. Rice. —lu the early part of the week the demand for rice was good, and sales were made at full pri ces, but towards the close the market became dull, and sales ivere made at lower rates notwithsland , ing the moderate receipts. Several parcels of new crop Were received. We quote prime $3 1-8 a 3 1-4 ; inferior to good 2 1-2 a 3. Corn. —There were no arrivals of Corn the last week. The article is dull, and sales from store limited. We repeat the quotation of 39 a 42. Flour. —This article has improved in price ; the sales of the were generally at $7, and now hold ers are asking more. We quote Baltimore, Phila delphia and Richmond superfine, at 7 a 7 1-4. A lot of Fayetteville, the first this season, was re ceived on Saturday, and a part of it sold at $G 1-2 a 6 3-4. Groceries. —The business of the iveek though fair was not quite equal to the previous one. There is no material change in prices. The stock of su gar is small, not sufficient to admit f heavy ope rations. It is probable but for the low state of the ; rivers the supply would not be equal to three j weeks demand.
