Vv c learr. from our correspoildent at Miliedge ville, that the Bill to compel Justices of the Peace to give bond and security was still before the Se nate. It was ably discussed on the 19th. Messrs Crawford of Columbia, Wilson of Pike, Gamble of Jefferson, and Owens of Chatham, spoke in favor of the bill; it was opposed by Mr. Powell of M In tosh, Mr. Branham of Putnam, (who remarked, that when the bill was first read, he was in favor of it, but, on mature reflection, he was not sure that, the object of the bill would be accomplished ; he was sure that it could not under the present shape.) The bill was finally re-committed to a select committee. # In regard to this bill, whatever may be its fate, we take this occasion to observe, that it cannot, in our opinion, correct the evil complained of. The evil results, not from the scarcity of re sponsible men in any section of the state—of these there are abundance—but from the reluctance with which these responsible men, in many dis. tricts, engsge in the duties of an office which yield neither honor nor profit. In some districts, where the collecting business is considerable, and where the fees are consequently an object, there are no lack of candidates for the office. But in other sections, where the duties of the office are vexatious, without being profitable, it is no easy matter to find a responsible man to undertake them. In such districts, tfie only candidate who offers, however worthless and irresponsible lie maybe, is elected ; not because he has a majority of the suffrages of the district, but because he has no opponent. Many justices have been declared duly elected, on receiving a dozen votes, in a dis trict comprising several hundred voters. It appears to us, therefore, that any law impos ing additional burthens on this officer, without adding to the profit or importance of the station, would only have the tendency to drive from it the few who are really responsible, and place it more completely in the hands of the worthless. There are evils in the system which neod re form ; but the bill does not reach them. Extend the jurisdiction of the Justices’ courts—throw more business into them—that is, into any one of , them—by uniting two or more districts into one— increase the fees—and the office would be worth attending to—and it would be attended to by re spectable men. The bill to abolish Penitentiary confinement was discussed in the House on the 19th. We shall give the leading features of the debate on both these subjects as soon as we can find room. * Since it has been reduced to a certainty that General Jackson is to be the President of the Uni ted States for the next four years, speculation has been busy as to the individuals who will com pose his cabinet. And it does appear to us, con sidering the jarring materials out of which his party has been formed, the conflicting interests of his friends,*and the opposing principles of those who have supported him, that he will meet with no little difficulty in getting up an administration? that will satisfy all his partizans, and at the same time give confidence to the public. The South will insist on an unconditional re peal of the Tariff, an entire abandonment of the American System. The Middle and the Western states have yielded him their support because they have believed him friendly to the protection of do mestic industry, and internal improvement, and will not be satisfied unless he call to his councils the advocates of these measures. It is evident he cannot gratify all parties; and he will no doubt, at the outset of his career, find himself surrounded with difficulties of no ordinary character. It seems likely that the next Presidential elec tioneering campaign will open before the present may be said to have fairly closed. The New York papers bring two new competitors into the field— Martin Van Buren and Smith Thomposon. Mr. Calhoun, it is understond, will be a candidate from the South, and Mr. Clay from the West. It seems to be taken for granted on all sides, that General Jackson will not be a candidate for re-election. The Second Anniversary of the Georgia Bible Society was held at Millodgevillcon the 10th inst. Thomas Cooper and George Warnei were ap pointed a committee to prepare an annual report, in behalf of the Convention. ‘ -► Land Sales. —The sales of the fractions ordered at the last Session, are now held at Milledgoville It is stated, in the Georgia Journal, that the sale of fractions, in Lee County, which closed on the 20th, had amounted to the sum of $52,974 10.— Lee county is rising in reputation. Mr. Archibald C. MTntyre, formerly of this place, has issued pfoposals for the publication of a newspaper at Darien, to be entitled the Dak!£N Phoenix. The Editor of the Augusta Chronicle and Ad vertiser offers his establishment for sale, on ac commodating terms. The Chronicle is one of the oldest establishments in the State, and has a very extensive circulation. Its advertising patronage is also very liberal, and to a person wishing to embark iq the business, the'offer presents a favora ble opportunity. Elections. —The Jackson ticket has prevailed i Kentucky by about 4000 ; in Ohio by 3893 j in Indiana by a small majority. General La Fayette. —A letter has been received by a gentleman of New-York, from General La. Fayette, announcing his intention to vist th® United States about the beginning of next month* The Editor* and Gentlemen connected with the ’ress, in Boston, gave a dinner to Mr. Russell, ate editor of the Columbian* on tixo 16th mat- SAVANNAH, THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 4, 1828. William Creighton, jun. (at present a Repre sentative in Congress from the State of Ohio, and jiiAt re-elected for another term.) has been ap pointed, the President, Judge of the United States’ Court for the District of Ohio, in the room ot Judge Byrd, deceased, and has accepted the appointment. American Minister in England. —A late number of the Sheffield Iris, a*paper formerly if not now j under the management of the poet Montgomery', ; contains the following paragraph : “The Hon. James Barbour, late Secretary of < War, and formerly Governor of Virginia, and nOvv j Envoy from the United States to the Court of St. j James, accompanied by his lady and family visited j this town on Thursday. It may be added, as not I uninteresting to some of our readers of this paper, I that the Honorable Gentleman was the bearer of; letters from our late townsman, Mr. Gales, to his relatives in this town. It is now nbout 40 years ’ since Mr. Gales left this town for America. He : is at present, and has long been settled in Raleigh, in North Carolina, where he publishes a newspd- ‘ per, as does also his son, Mr. Joseph Gales, who is Government printer, and Mayor of Washington I City, where lie i asides. j Taking time by the forelock. —It is not yet I known that General Jackson is elected, but never- j thetess, three candidates have been proposed to . succeed him. Mr. Van Buren, Mr. Calhoun, and Smith Thompson j Boundary Question. — The Arcadian (Halifax',) j Recorder, of Nov. 8, gives the following extract * of a letter, received from a gentleman at Dorchcs- ter. N. S.:—“ A gonlleman, just arrived here from ’ Fredericton, states, that, before he left there, it , was reported, on the authority of a letter from s Henry Bliss, esq. (Provincial that the f Boundary Question had been settled , in England,; a cithout reference.” { The elegant watch, chain and seal, belonging to the ill-fated Catlin, who lost his life below the Falls at Carthage* have been found, and are now in possession of the editors of the Rochester Dai- > ly Advertiser. They are worth between $l5O , and S2OO. —They were discovered under the edge of a rock, near the water’s edge, partly hidden by bark and sand, where they were probably put bv t, the unfortunate artist before going into the wa-; ter.—JV’etc- York Gazette. Robert Parks, late a merchant in Albany, was ; drowned on Monday evening week, by accidental ly falling overboard from the sloop Eclipse of that - city. He has left a wife and one child to mourn his premature loss. y7.rh, (U. C.) Oct. 27. ! Mr. Henry Crompton. —This gentleman former ly editor of the Montreal Examiner, tried last Saturday afternoon, for damning the King ! !—the trial was one continual farce. The defendant con ducted his own defence, and greatly added there by to the abundant mirth of the spectators. The trial occupied most of the day, and ihe jury, who retired on that evening, had not rendered their verdict on Monday. October 30.— Mr. Crompton's Jury. —The un fortunate jurors remained confined in the jury room, in this case, from Saturday afternoon until Tuesday, at 1 P. M. where they stood 10 to 2. Messrs. Price and Sanderson being for a verdict of guilty, in opposition to the others. The Judge recommended discharging the pannel and sum moning anew one, Mr. Crampton acceded to this arrangement, and anew trial was ordered for No vember 28. | ■ 1 j New-York, Nov. 19. The U.

General ’ Court.— Yesterday, judgment was awarded by the court in the case of the common wealth against the administrator of Jerman Ba ker, deceased, the late Treasurer of this common wealth, for the sum of twenty-five thousand and a few hundred dollars. The case of the commonwealth against Jer man Baker’s securities is expected to come on to day. # > The pending information against the clerk of the court was also tried. Evidence was called in to support the information, and the jury, without retiring, found a verdict against him, and amerced him one cent. The court instanter pronounced a judgment of a motion from office, and appointed Conway Robinson of this city, (who has for some time acted as Deputy Clerk) Clerk of the Gene ral Court in his stead. - Hemp. —Many of the farmers in New York and Vermont, are about to engage in the culture of hemp, and it is believed that some of the farmers in this part of the Connecticut valley would do well to turn their attention to this crop. The cau ses which have hitherto operated to retard its in troduction, are the labor and expense of dressing, rather than the difficulty of raising. A machine has been lately invented by which these articles are prepared for market at a trifling expense of time and labor, compared with that of the old modes of rotting and dressing. The breaking is performed before the rotting. T.hree hundred lbs. of unrotted hemp or flax are broken per hour: it is then immersed in water from three to five days, dried in the sun a few hours and again run through the machine when it is soft and fit for use. Several of these machines are in operation iir New York, Ohio, and other states, and we un derstand that arrangements are making to erect one in this vicinity, as soon as the farmers shall turn their attention to the growing of hemp suf ficient to furnish a supply fora machine. The late tariff law affords adequate protection to hemp, and those who engage in its cultivation may ex pect fair (not high) prices.— Hampshire. Gazette. Timber Trade.—' The cargoes of three New-Bruoswick timber ships have recently, says a New-Brunswick paper, experienced in Liverpool a rice of one penny per foot. This has given considerable activity t 6 trade among our north-eastern neighbours. There was a time, es we are informed, when the most profitable trade of Maine, — that trade which gave the most powerful impulse to her growth, which is now pro ceeding with more steady and sure, if not so speedy h progress,—was the timber trade between Maine and Liverpool. But Eng land, true to her maxim of taking care of herself and her own colonies imposed a r duty oil timber, which destroyed the busi ness • The New-Brunswickers are now, as for some years they have been, enjoying the benvfits, of which their neighbours are deprived. Our friends in Maine can tell, us how many ships loads of timber they now j send toLiverpool in a year— BostonPatriot, —— La Plata The condition of the province : of La Plata at this present moment, com pared with that of their sister republics in South America, is advantageous indeed, particularly when we recall their relative j prospects as they appeared a short time ago. * After the Spanish power had been finally ■ crushed in Peru and Chili* and the west as well as the north had submitted to the pairiots, it was hoped that the three states would pursue a firm united and rapid march for the acquisition of political and; intellectual improvement and power.— i Without recapitulating the events which have since transpired,’ but which are at once interesting and monitory to those states and all other republics it is only ne cessary to glance at the state of discord and opposition which unhappily prevails be tween Colombia, Peru and Bolivia. Those extensive and fertile regions, which but lately seemed ready to set their enemies at defiance, and which would probably have presented a powerful front if an invasion had been attempted before internal dissen sions had time to spring up, are now threat ening to employ their forces against each other; while La Plata, after a long and powerful struggle against a foreign ene my, is seen emerging from her trials with untarnished honor, confirmed credit, and prepared to enter the career of com mercial enterprise and internal improve ment, with every probability of success. Mexico.—The Mercantile Advertiser states on the authority of letters received in this ciiy from Vera Cruz, under date of Sept. 29th, that Pedrasa has been elected President of the Republic, and that the government had succeeded in obtaining a loan of $500,000 as soon as the result of the election was known. Gen. Rincon is Governor of Vera Cruz. St. Anna remains in possession of Pcrote, but an ample force was on the march to subdue him. According to these advices, every thing was favourable for the speedy restoration of tranquility.—N. Y. Daily Advertiser. j COMMERCIAL.

London, Oct. 17. Consols for account have closed at 85 7-8 to 86. The Mark-lane report gives a fall of 10s per quar ter on wheat, from last Monday—the supply has been immense both of home as well as foreign, and the knowledge of still further quantities being on their way, gives rise to an expectation that a still further fall may be expected on Monday next. Sun. Liverpool Markets, Oct. 17.— Cotton. —The import, this week, is 6004 bags, and the sales amount to not less than 31,160 bags, (including 10,000 taken by speculators) and prices have ad vanced full l-8d to 1 -4d per lb. on Brazils, & 1 J-8d on the inferior qualities of Boweds, Aiabamas and Orleans, viz. 190 Sea Islands at 14d to 18d, 170 stained do. at 6 1-2 to lid, 8220 Boweds at 5 7-8d to 7d, 4080 Orleans at 6 l-8d to 3 l-2d, 6080 Ala bamas, &c. at 5 7-3 to 7d. Drysalteries , 4 c - —There has been a good de mand for Ashes, and holders have obtained rather higher prices for 660 brls Pot, and 160 bis. Pearl. The Company’s sale of Indigo opened at advanced rates, and the three first days have terminated with a rise over the July sale of Gd on the fine, and 9d to 13d on the lower and middling qualities 920 barrels. Turpentine have been taken at a small adaance, but nothing has been done in Tar. Saltpetre continues in good demand, 1100 bags having been disposed of at rather higher rates. Liverpool Corn Exchange. —The import of wheat and oats from Ireland for last Tuesday’s market, was extensive, but of other kinds of grain, from thence or coastwise, the supply was trifling. In wheat the transactions, were trifling, and a decline of 3d to 4d per 70 lb. from the prices of last Tuesday was submitted to. In oats there was also little doing, and for new we reduce our quo tations Id per 45 lbs.

Liverpool , Oct. 18.—There have been, through out this week, a good demand for British planta tion sugar; but owiu g* to the limited quantity offering, the sales are confined so 700 hhds. at an advance of fully Is per cwt. and in some instances more. Considerable more business might have been done, had the holders been disposed to sell. The stocks of East India and foreign sugar being exhausted, nothing has been done in those descrip tions. About 350 £unchoo# £ W ost India Mo- lasses have been sold—Antigua, at 25s 3d. Oeint rara, at 26s 3d to 26s 6d. and St. V incent, at 275. per cwt. Our coflee market remains witnout ani mation : the business is confined to the Gro ©rs, who liave taken about 120 tierces Jamaica, at to* prices quoted, in which we make no alteration Throughout the whole of the week there hai been a very brisk demand for Cotton both from . the trade and speculators, the latter flavin*; ta\en about 601*0 bags Brazil and 4000 bags of American descriptions. This demand has, however; been j freelyjmet by the holders, and the advance in th® prices is only about l-8d per lb. from our last q.io^ ! tations. At a public sale, yesterday, there were I sold 1 m Jurats at 3 7-8d to 4 3-4 per lb. for or dinary to good fair. The sales by private contract , Consist of 8220 Bowed at 5 7-8d to 7 l-4d chiefly i at 6 3-8d td 6 5-8d for middling to fully fair ; *4OBO Orleans jtt 5 l-8d to 8 1-2 (10 at 9d) chiefly at 6 7-8 to 7 1 -4d for middling fair to good; 6080 Alabama and Mobile at 5. 7-cd to 7d; 190 Sea Island at -14d to 18d ; 170 stained, do. 6 !-2d td . lid ; 1400 Pernainbucco at 7 7-8d to 8 l-4d v 2O ■ at & 3-4d); 4610 Maranhain at 7 3-&d to 7 l-8d j 3520 Bahia at 7 l-4d to 7 7-8d; 100 Para at ; 6 7-8, to 7d ; making a total, including those s >ld iby auction, of 31,150 bags.
