5218 /LH&V > A'ITUFSD.IY WORJYLYG. JULY 21. t'rrm the Georgian. A DAY AT MONTGOMERY. Messrs. Editors, —A short time since some dis cussion took on the eligibility of various places in our neighborhood as summer retreats,in the event of sickness in town, but principally to counteract if possible, the propensity of oof citi zens to deseri their own state. Several fentlo men who entered warmly into the projcctcxanu ned and reportod favorably of Camp Jack, in Ef fingham County, distant twenty-six mile*, a draft of which 1 believe remains in your News Room. — Their efforts, however, as far as 1 can fcarn, have been exerted in vain, the migratory tide setting northwardly as usual leaving our city as bare and 83 dull, as at any former season. Hearing that several families had spent the last summer satis factorily at I determined upon a vi sit of reconnoissancc which on Saturday, 1 carried into effect, and now give you the result. At half past 5, A.M. the morning warm but pleasant, I set off, and after passing over an ex cellent road, half the distance through luxuriant woods almost impervious to the rays of the sun, at the end of twelve miles arrived at the end of my journey, without effort, at 7 o’clock The few houses composing the place are situated on a Muff on a branch of Ossabaw Sound, in a direct line probably seven miles from the ocean, the Raccoon Keys, and an extent of elevated salt jnarsh intervening. The principal attractions of the pun.e are sea air, salt water bathing, fishing, shooting angling. There is a sea breeze every day; bathing may be enjoyed immediately m front of the settlement on a sandy bottom; fishing, by anchoring in the stream, where the capture ot the delicate Sheep-Head is sure to reward the pa tience ofthe piscatory amateur ; shooting, either jji the neighboring foiest or on the adjacent isl ands, the haunt ot deer ; and sailing, on the river leading into the sound, (in some places a mile •vide,) or on the sound itseit. In the immediate vicinity oifty a few yards front the house under t } ie wide spreading branches of the rugged moss hung oaks, are cool seats and shadowy pleasant walks. - > Accounts the most favorable were givon me o Vne health ot the place, it having been for many years the summer residence of different individ uals, and ono family has spent fourteen summers there, enjoying as uninterrupted health as could be expected in any placo. Indeed, although but twelve miles from the city, the situation is as ru ral and retired, as if ten times the distance, offer ing too all the. advantages of daily communica tion. There arc doubtless some offsets, one of which is sand flies, the great plague of onr sea board, but 1 found none and am told they are but seldom annoying after the month of May. In fact if the character given it tor nealth is just, it wants only society to make it a more pleasant resort than the far famed Saratoga, which wanting its ephemeral population, is at best but a desert ot sand arid pine trees, both of which we have in per fection at hoine. A capital house, considering i!s recent opening, is kept by Mrs. Cohen, a sociable, industrious, motherly lady, whose chief wish seems to be to make her visitors comfortable. Fine fish transfer red from the river to the pot, form a regular dish together with the delicacies usually found on our tables in town. At seven o'clock, after tea, l set off on my re turn home, where 1 arrived before 9, much pleas ed with the place and the entertainment, and big *ith the desire of making it known to all desirous of enjoying the same. Paper Machine —Isaac Sanderson, of Milton* Mass, paper manufacturer, has invented, and se cured a patent for, anew and highly important improvement in the cylinder paper machine, for manufacturing paper, consisting of a counteract ing horizontal whirl wheel—and a paper forming roller, by which the paper usually made by ma. chine is greatly improved in quality, strength and durability—and several kinds of paper are made, never before produced by any machine. an examination of the specification and drawing as lodged in the patent office of the Uni ted States, we arc induced to believe that a valu able discovery in the art of paper making has been made by tho construction ot the machine.— It is evident that by means of the improvement, machine paper may be manufactured equal, if not superior to that made by hand or tho old method Manufacturer. Chesapeake and Delaware Canal. —lt is stated in the Philadelphia papers that, in a short time, when every thing shall be in n complete state of preparation, the Direct ors will celebrate the opening of the canal id due form, and thaythe President of the United Stotts, aDd the Governors cf Penn sylvania, Maryland and Delaware, will be •invited lo join their fellow citizens on ’he occasion. From the National Cast of T. Watkins. —Un the opening rs the Circuit Court yesserday. Chief Jus tice Cranch delivered the revised opinion of the coin t on the point on which the court had overruled the dimmer, and sustained one of the indictments filie $750 case)-- which point had been re-argued by coun sel on Saturday last. The review of the case had not changed the opinion before de livered, but had confirmed the court in the unanimous decision that the demurrer he overruled. [Judge Tlirusion concurring in with his brethren in their opinion, deliver ed at length his individual reasons for that concurrence.] The demurrer being overruled, the coun sel h r the prosecution prayed the court for judgment against tho defendant—-his coun sel having, by the demurrer, admitted the facts alleged in the indictment. This mo tion was opposed by tiie counsel for the pri-’ sonor, and the privilege of a trial demand ed. Much.discussion followed,and autlioi ties were road, on the questions whether, as was contended on nno sidt, the court was not, after having, on solemn argument and formal decision,.overruled a demurrer l i.i h criminal action, bound to £ivc judg- ‘’ *ncm ; or whether, as was maintained on ] the other side, tho conit had jmt the dis-I cretion, in criminal as in civil action?, to permit the defendant to withdraw the de murrer and go to trial. This being a ques lion not before decided by this court, and coming before it unexpectedly, it required time to consider it and look into the author ities. The question will prohaqly bo de cided to-day, and judgment given on the in dictment, or the parties forthwith proceed to trial ou the indictment. The United States vs Ann Royall.—An other case came up yesterday before the circuit court, which, by the unusual crowd that thronged the hall, appeared to excite much interest Mrs Ann Royal, against whom a bench warrant was issued last week, appeared to answer to an indictment found against her during the term by the Grand Jury, for certain alleged improprieties of conduct, denominated in legal phrase— “common scold,’ 1 “common slanderer, 11 “ brawler/ 1 common nuisance,” &c. The defendant’- counsel entered a demurrer to two out of the three counts of the indict ment, which the counsel for the prosecu tion agreed to submit to the court without argument The defendant also asked a continuance of the trial till ftiday next, on the ground of the absence of two witnesses material to her defence. The indulgence was granted, on tho uwdoretaudine; that if she was convicted, the expence (growing out of the repeated attendance of many witnesses) would bo paid by her. The tiial was accordingly postponed to Friday. —lb Alleged Felony. —On F.iiday afternoon there was no little commotion on the steps of Washington Hall, in consequence of the intrusion of Joseph L H.tys among a circle of gentlemen who were standing there, and the arrest ot one of the party. The pri soner demanded tho reason of his arrest, and those in conversation with him were much surprised to learn that it was on a charge of felony. They endeavored to persuade the officer that he had mistaken his man; but he knew what he was about, and in a few moments ushered his new ac quaintance into the police office The ap pearance ofthe prisoner was highly respect able. The case as it was given in evidence ap peared as follows* The prisoner boarded at the Eastern Hotel in Pearl street, and yesterday mor ning several of the boarders discovered that they bad been robbed. A suspicion, by some means or other, rested upon the prisoner, and on application being made to the police, a warrant was issued for his ap prehension. It was his practice not to dine at his boarding house, but a. the Wash ington or National Hotel. He was taken into a private room, searched, and some of the lest money found upon his poison The b Its that were in his purse were recog nized immediately by one ofthe complain ants, as the identical ones that ho had en dorstd but the previous day Under these circumstances the magistrates had no other alternative but to take his examination and sign a commitment to Bridewell. The connexions of the party, both in Maryland and this city, are highly respect able.— IS. F. Jour . Com Smuggling. —The editor of the Niagara Gleaner, in his last paper says that several seizures have recently been made by the Collector of Niagara. Whiskey appears to be the chief article attempted to bo run into Canada. The editor adds that the temptation to struggle on both sides is great, so much so, that an honest trader cannot live, ‘he must smuggle in self de fence.’ The alarm of fire between 2 and 3 o’- clock this morning, was, we understand, caused by a gr* at light <*o the Long Island side of the river; we have not learnt whe ther there was any fire. JV. y. Com. Advertiser . We have been told with an amusing af fectation of virtuous feeling, that General Jackson wi} not countenance defaulters and that to reform our public offices he was lo remove corrupt officers. Put there isauotlier part of his system of reform, the merit of which he and his party may, in their excessive modesty, be slow to claim. We will therefore, by way of interrogatory, give them one and il they require further instigation, they shall hear from us again on the subject Has not General Jackson appointed a public defaulter, known to him as such ut the time of his appointment, to an office of high responsibility, in the room of a public officer who was never even suspected of be ing a public defaulter I —Aye or no!—iY tional Journal , Home Industry. — While racking our brain for a subject wherewith to eke out a paragraph, we were remiuded by a fiiend, that an improvement in the costume ot the fair deserved some notice at our hands.— We are truly sorry to be unacquainted w ith the utility of the ornament alluded to, ns we should be proud to bestow upon it one of our prettiest commendation. / In the mean time it may be sufficient to state, that the most fashionable offenitdes have fallen in love—with They have put on stout linen aprons, which the? wear through the streets, well assured that the emblem of industry is ever an ornament of honor.— The best of the improvement is too,that they have pockets in this new fashioned apron, to hold, we suppose, the proceeds of their toil.— Virginian . The Boston Gazette states that the du ties on the cargo of the ship Franklin, ar rived at that port a few days ago from Canton, will amount to about one hundred and ten thousand dollars. Stephen T. Conn hns invented a metallic capstan, which may bo seen cm board the steam boat Libertador, Cant. Trebly, near Rector street wharf, North River. The barrel of the capstan i bollotv cylinder cf cast iron, of half an inch thickness, provided wilhin with four setts of cogs and four pinions. To each of the pinions, which are of composition, a crank is attached, and such is the power of tho capstan, that one man can raise the an chor of the Libertador, which weighs 500 pounds.—We raised with little exertion, 200 pounds of iron from the deck of this vessel, attached to a tackle. The barrel of tho capstan moves in one direction, while the brass drum head at its top, moves in an other. VVe doubt not that the saving of power by this capstan, and the ease and ra pidity with which it can be worked, will recommend it to general use in our merch ant vessels, and our vessels of war. It will be well for the .interested to take an early view of this improved capstan, as the Li bortador will shortly leave for the river Magdalena, Colombia, whero site will bo employed by her owner, Mr. Silas E. Bor rows, in the navigation of that river, con nected with the N. York and Canhegena line of packets, forming a monthly line to and from the city of Boston and N York. N. F. Mercantile Advertiser. The Massachusetts Horticultural Socie ty, has appointed a committee to facilitate an interchange of fruits the ensuing autumn, with the Philadelphia, New York, and Al bany Horticultural Societies and others, for the purpose of establishing their syn.ony mes. Much inconvenience fyas been ex perienced by receiving from different cities fruit trees of a kind already .possessed, but ordered in a different name; similar efforts are being made in Flanders, Londou and Paris. It is seriously stated, we know not on what grounds, that Mr. M‘Lane, our new minister to England, has been instructed to negotiate with the British Minister, with re ference to the tariff of 1828—That is, as we understand it, he is authorised to say, that the rate of duties will he essentially modified if Great Britain will admit, on moderate duties, the grain and flour of the UuiieJ States.— P/nlad. U. S. Gazette , XATEST FROM BAHIA. Baltimore, July 13. The Editor of the Patriot has been fa vored with the following extract leceived by die brig Superior, arrived at Portland, Me.— E it) act of a letter dated Bahia, 20th May Since the date of our last, we regret to say, that no material change or improve ments have taken place for the diminution of our stock oftflour lias been inconsidera ble, the actual consumption not excoeding 1 500 bbls. per month., which leaves in fiist hands, and in those of speculators, about 2,800 bb!s. The demand, however, is very far from being animated for at the present price of 17j|000 f our bakers purchase in small parcels only, for immediate use, and speculators holding such large amounts, from previous purchases, exhibit no dispo sition to enter into any additional ones at the price which now governs. We feel perfectly assured that nothing over our quo tation could possibly be realized for a car go. With all other articles of import from the United States, we continue to be most amply suppled ; the stocks of which may be considered heavy, without much demand, and sales effected with difficulty at quotations. Sugars are in full supply, and wo quote them, say Whitts 2,600 Mus covado, 1,800 per aroba, but as ttie Euro pean den and for the season, has in a great degree subsided, we may anticipate seeing them a few weeks hence at more favorable prices A greater deficiency in hides, has rarely if ever been experienced than at this moment, and they are now so scarce that it would be difficult to procure th m, and certainly not at les3 than 120 rs. per lb The course of exchange so far from impro ving, has on tho contrary gone lower than at the date of our last advices. The trans actions in it by the last packets for England, were done at 3 4<J. and we fear it wiil not be sluntly at & better—but that a farther decline may be expected.

The Chamber have refused to vote the annual taxes for the support of government, on the ground that tho King does not govern the kingdom according to the charter. The spirited conduct of the Deputies has pro duced a great sensation in France, and has become the subject of general conversation. We regret that it is not in our power to give the particulars of the controversy. N. F. Eve. Fast.

The quantity of malt made now is less than it was in 1817, ardent spir its having extensively taken the place ol malt liquor. Awful Ejfect of Carelessness —On the 23d of March, 1811, at Gloucester, Eng land, William Townlev, was executed for burglary, after he was reprieved!

Mechanic's Magazine. hadies Cheapening Goods. —Nut many summers since, two damsels dressed in overflowing style of country taste, i. e. flow ers/feathers, ribbons, promenaded our streets, dropped into our dry goods stores, and examined calicoes, chintzes, bomba zines, bombazets, lawn, linen, crapes hoes, ’kerchiefs, die. and walked out, saying ‘they would look further and call again.’— After a long tour of observation, and many talks with shopmen, they succeeded in purchasing a pair of ‘wnolo flats. 1 Before going home they went to the post office and asked for letters; two were found to their address. ‘How much arc they?’ said the damsels. ‘Twelve and a half cenfcs each, 1 replied the office clerk. ‘Twelve and a half cents!’ exclaimed the damsels. ‘Spose you’ll let us have them cheaper, if we take both? 1 ‘Cannot do it/ said the clerk, ‘Uncle Sam will not allow it. ‘Why can't you ask your Uncle, perhaps he’il let u' hrfve them, if we take both for twenty cents!’ rejoined the shoppers!! Here’s cheapening for you.- Salem Cour.cr. THE UNLUCKY. PRESENT. An Anecdote . Mr. L , of C , in L anarkshire, j (who died within the present century,) was one of those unhappy persons, who, to use the words of a well known Scotish adage, ‘can never see green cheese but their een reels.’ He was extremely covetous, and that not only of nice articles of food, bin of many other things which do not general ly excite the cupidity of the human heart. The following story is in corroboration of this assertion. Ruing on a visit one day at thg house of one of jiis parishioners a poor lonely, widow, living in a moorland part of the palish-—Mr. became fas cinated by the charms of a little cast iron pot, which happened at the time to be lying on the hearth, full of potatoes for the poor old woman’s dinner and that of her chil dren. He had never in his life seen such a nice little pot. It was a perfect conceit of a thing. It was a gem. No pot on earth, could match it in symmetry. * It was an object perfectly lovely. ‘Dear sake!* said the widow quite overpowered by the man’s commendations of her pot: ‘if ye like the pot sne weel as a’lhat, I beg ye’ll let me send it to the manse. It’s a kind o’orru [superjluoyis] pot wi* us; for we’ve a big ger ane, that we use oftener, and that s mair convenient every way for us. Sae ye’ll just take a present o’r, I’ll send it ower the morn wi* Jamie, when he gangs to ihe Schule.* ‘Oh,’ said Mr. L*— * can by no means permit you to be at so much trouble. Since you are so good as to give me the pot, Fil just carry it home with me in my hand, I’m so much taken with it, indeed, that 1 would really prefei carrying it myself.’ After much alterca tion between the widow and him on this delicate point of politeness, it was agreed that he should cany home the pot himself. Off then he trudged, bearing this curious little culinary article alternately in his hand under his arm, as seemed most convenient to him. Unfortunately the day was waim, ilia way long, ami ibp gemieimn f that lie became heartily tired <f ‘ * before ho had got halfway h om * , !er these distressing circumstances j { him, that if, instead of carrvim* • awkwardly at one side of his 1 vere to carry it on ins head, Jl, e jV , .vnuld be greyly lightened, the ptillc ’ ‘ ol natural philosophy, which he h ; d j,,.,, ’ at college, informing him, that wheu a l '/ presses directly and im.mediatelj Upr , ‘ J object, it is far less onerous than Vi ’ 31 hangs at the remote end of a lever* V curlingly, doffing his hat, which he Vs. ,| to carry homo in his lined, and havin', plied his handkerchief to his brow W* 0 ped the pot in inverted fashion head; where, ns tho reader may sV it figured much like Mimbrino** hp ’ upon the crazed capital of Don qW* only a great deal more wiaguificent i (1 V and dimensions.
