Our accounts trmji different parts of the State,
i :duce us to believe tint the result of the vote
fc. tween Messrs. Crawford and Gilmer, will be a
vary close one Iu the Eastern, Southern, Chata
hoochie, and probably the Middle, Circuits, the
ijjoritics for Mr. Crawford will be very large
j ft the Northern, Western, and Oemulgce, and
: irriiaps the Flint, Circuits, Mr. Gilmer’s majori
{i s will be considerable. Mr. Gilmer’s friends
iie very sanguine, and the chances, we think, are
rt flier in their favor, although the majority Y-’jll
less than they anticipate. The noisy, selfish
; ‘i.flicians, are mostly in Mr. Gilmer's favor, and
t hix clamor induces many to believe that his
i a ie is stronger than it really is. Mr. Crawford
i 3 supported, in a great measure, by the substan
i ill part of the community, who will vote and say
; o’liing; his strength, therefore, cannot be trute
< s imated until after the election. The result of
* .1- Governor s election will also in a gi-eal tnea
sure determine the political complexion ot both
1 ranches of the Legislature. There are many
tunning politicians, who will not take sides until
tiny ascertain which party wiH be the strongest,
a inch they will be prepared to join, whichever,it
liay be. It is a fact not to be disguised, that Mr.
Gilmer is supported to a great extent, from a
jiinciplc orliostility to Mr. Forsyth: and should
ho be elected Governor by a large majority, it
luay be presumed that another candidate will be
parted by his partisans, in opposition to Mr. For
ill, for tli.c Senate of the United States. Re
p >rt lias fixed upon Judge Shorter.
PILOTS.
We have heard much clamor these two or
three days past against the Pilots, who are au
thorized, by the Hoard of Commissioners, to act
Fr this bar and harbor. We have heard that one
i
f the line of packets, with passengers, has been
two days detained in the river for want of a pilot;
that the Captain was compelled to run the ship in
himself, and theicby incurred a great risk to lire
underwriters on the goods on board, and on the
ship—and there was, we are told, a very valuable
cargo on board, to the amount of seyeral hundred
thousand dollars ; that the Captain, afier running
lus ship on several shoals and sand banks, was
obliged to bring her to anchor, and come up to
town , and apply to the Chairman of the Commis
sioners of Pilotage for a pilot—alleging that se
veral boats passed hun while lie was cn shore in
the river, with his jack set at the fore, as a signal
f>r a pilot, and that neither of them took the least
notice of his signal or Iris situate n, but proceeded

Governor Cass communicated his annual Mes
sage to the Legislative Council of Michigan, at
Detroit, on the Bth inst, lie recommends no al
terations iu the existing system of laws, satisfied
that they are such as meet the present exigencies
ot the Territory, whose condition is as prosperous
as that of perhaps any portion of the Union. This
general improvement w ill soon render it expedi
ent to introduce Michigan among the States of
the Union. The Governor adverts to the estab
lishment of the new territory of Huron, west of
Lake Michigan, as necessary from the ciicum
stance of its being too remote from the peninsula
ot Michigan. The country or Ihe St. Joseph has
been offered for sale, and this has caused a great
influx of population. The exact amount is not
known, and a cansus is recommended, especially
witn a view to the q uestion of seeking admission
into the Union as a Slate.
A letter from Havre, dated the 11th of August,
received in New-York, says:—“The general im
pression is, that the new ministry cannot sustain
itself, unless by some strokes of policy ; and each
violation of our laws will be one step nearer the
overthrow and destruction of the party which now
weighs heavily upon France. An alliance with
I ngland is spoken of to airest the course of Rus

this subject. The funds recovered a little yester

SAVANNAH , THURSDAY MORNING , OCTOBER ft 1829.
Let er from Washington, to the Editor of
the United States Gazette.
Washington, Sept. 20.
It would be difficult to convey to you any
sufficient idea of the agitation into which
this community has been thrown by the va
rious rumors which are now in circulation.
That the whole influence of the federal
government will ho controled, and brought
systematically to bear upon the next elec
tion, every day renders more certain.
The removal of Mr. Bradley is, of itself,
calculated to alarm the people, but the
manner of it must increase that apprehen
sion ten-fold. When Mr. Bradley left the
office, being desirous that the funds in his
possession should not be handed over to
ills successor until they had been counted,
he requested Mr. Barry to Keep the key
of tile iron chest which was handed to him,
in his own possession, until an opportunity
was given to (ell the amount, It seems
that Mr. Barry promised to do so, but im
mediately afterwards handed the key over
to Mr, Gardiner, the successor of Mr
Bradley, who, consequently, had access to
the money, and, had the reputation of Mr.
Bradley from that moment in his power.——
When this was made known to Mr. Brad
ley, he is said to have declined taking any
further trouble concerning the funds. IJis
brother. Dr. Bradley, is reported to have
felt so indignant at this treatement, which
seems to have originated iu a degree to in
jurc Mr. Bradley, that he instantly address
ed a letter to Mr Barry, which, under cur
teous and gentlemanly phraseology, con
veyed a sharp inflection upon the course
which had been pursued by Mr. Barry, and
concluded with a declaration in substance,
that lie should resign unless his brother had
an instant opportunity to place his charac
ter beyond the reach of misrepresentation,
arid to enable him to do this, it was demand
ed that the Post Mstei General should
assist him with some clerks to go through
his accounts from the beginning of his offi
cial concerns with the department. It
seems, as yet, no answer has been given to
this letter, which has probably placed the
post master,general in a dilemma, as the re
sigpation of Dr. Bradley would throw the
department into a confusion not easily to
be removed. In order to establish a per
fect system of secrecy, perhaps of nothing
worse, in the department considerable re
movals are said to be determined on. This
being the season for making ihe contracts,
these removals will probably be postponed,
until ail the new contracts are made, apd
tlie bond, cf the contractors registered, and
then will follow the besom of proscription,
and the newly created bureaus will be swept
out.
Mr. Ingham, Mr. Van Buren and Mr.
Brauch, do not seem to €njoy so large a
portion of the confidence of Gen. Jackson,
as Mr. Eaton and Mr. Barry; and I believe
Mr. Bci rien is not on terms of very intimate
intercourse with the President, but that
their association is prompted and limitod
by official necessity. But Mr. Ingham and
Mr. \an Buren are doubtless intent and
anxious in the pursuifof their separate ob
jects, having their eyes fixed upon the con
tingencies of the year 1832. As to Mr.
Bianch, his mind seems to grasp nothing
beyond the task of abridging the allow
ances ol the officers of the profession
which is entrusted to his charge; and when
he has succeeded, in passing an account, in
striking offa few dollars from a poor Lieu
tenuut, oi in gaining the best of a bargain
with one of his pursers, I believe he enjoys
all that perfection of happiness of which
his nature is capable.
From a Correspondent of the Charleston Courier.
Wahinton, Sept. 22*
Sir—l perceive, by the Telegraph , that
some Southern Editor has thought himself
justified in casting a doubt upoju the anec
dotes which I sent you, respecting Mr. Se
cretary Branch. They are current here,
and are generally believed. However the
thinking Secretary may be valued at home,
he is certainly not at home in the Nayy De
partment ; and not only the officers of the
Navy, but also among the citizens, his
standing lor talents is so low, that if I could
find any anecdotes of a more flattering
character to relate, I am certain they would
be met by an incredulity far more general
than those I transmitted to you. There
are rumors that he is tired of the service,
aod it is something more than rumor that
the service is I bed of him. I know'of no
w y for him te establish hitrself in popular
favor, unless he can disinfect the country of
that pestilent dislike for slow, peddling,
inefficient statesmen, which now prevails.
He labors barlf in his office, but it is because
the banter between the power to compre
hend, and the thing to be comprehended,
is of aiore than ordinary thickness, and his
astuteness finds', it very difficult to get
through the diffi ulty.
Toe state of our General Post Office
Establishment, occupies, at this moment,
no small portion of the public attention.—
To all who are conversant with the con
cerns of that establishment, it is well
known, th-.t ths two Bradley’s have been
considered indispcnsible to its advantage
ous progress They have so thorough a
knowledge, not pnly of the mode of trans
acting business, but of the geographical
character of every pari of the country, that
in making the coiflracts, they are consider
ed absolutely necessary. One of these,
without protest id charge against him, has
been removed to make room for a Jackson
man, who certaijVy possesses, in a very in.
Terror degree, all lliese qualifications which
weie combined in his predecessor. The
other Bradley, it is understood, has only
consented to remain in office on the condi-
Non that his brothers account shall be io-
I staoily examined from beginning to end.—
He is determined that the course which has
been uniformly pursued of destroying the
characters of the officers w ho are removed,
shall not be adopted iu reference to his bro
ther, whose reputation, both in q;id out of
office, has been always unsullied and unas
sailod. There have been caucuses on the
subject for one or two evenings, in Mr.
Barry’s chamber, as he is sick pf bilious fe
ver, but I believe there has been, as yet, no
final decision. In the mean time the man
agement of the office, and the funds, are all
entrusted to two persons, one of whom is
scarcely known among us, except as a roar
ing Jacksonian, and the other is rather too
well known for griping avarice, and inordi
nate appetite after that sublunary material
which is called money. The contracts
will be made next mouth, and when they
are finished, you may expect to hear that
the besom of proscription has been liberal
ly employed in removing other beings than
the spiders which have domesticated them
selves in the various bureaux.
In the mean time, the public confidence
in this great medium of communication be
tween the citizens and the states, moves in
the inverse ratio of the changes which are
made, and serious doubts begin to be en
tertained of the safety of private correspon
dence. Give the Administration the ex
clusive control of the press, and the corres
pondence ofindividuals, and we shall have
little left to yield to despotism.
From the Baltimore Chronicie, Sept. 24
Revolution in Peru. — By the Orbit, ar
rived yesterday from Valparaiso, intelli
gence has been received from our corres
pondent, that another revolution has taken
place in Peru. These occurrences have,
of Ute, become so frequent in that part of
South America, that they excite little at
tention, as it is difficult to understand the
motives which influence them, or tlie ad
vantages to be obtained when successful.—
The present revolution having been accom
plished by the partizans of Bolivar, an early
period will probably be put to the war be
tween Colombia and Peru, and the order
of things restored to that slate which it is
hoped may conduce to the general happi
ness of the people.
Extract of a letter to the editor of the Bal
more Gazette, dated
“ Valparaiso, July 4, 1829.
We are vised by the Fanny of a rei'-
olution in Cma in favor cf the Bolivar
party, which took place on the evening of
the sih June and was carried on with blood- j
shea. General Gamarra was made Presi
dent, and La Faientes Vice President ; the
former is from Cuzco, aqd the latter from
Arequipa.
/t i the general impression that the first
act of the new government will be to repeal
the prohibition of Flour, Domestics, Soap,
Tobacco, Ate. as a popular measure
A dreadful accident happened at Guaya
quil just after we left; the President frigate
ot 60 guns, w;is blown up, and near 200
men were lost—-the Steward was drawing
off seme spirits by candle light, and the
flame communicated, and in a few minutes
the ship was nil in a blaze, and at twelve at
noon she blew up.
I am sorry to sny the markets on the
coast from Gape Horn to California are
in a deplorable state—there are very poor
prospects to this quarter for some time to
come.”
The frigate of whose destruction our cor*
respondent speaks in the above letter, was
probably the Prueba, an account of the
blowing up of which was some weeks since
publisher! in the Gazette. It will be per
ceived tliat the manner in which the acci
dent is represented to have happened, by
our correspondent, is the same as that by
which the Prueba was said to have suffer
ed, and we have little doubt that our cor
respondent has committed an error io the
name.
Capt. Fish states, that a plot preparatory
to a revolution had been discovered in St.
Jago. A Lieutenant had been taken and
ordered to be shot, who proposed, if his life
was spared, to disclose the instigators.—
On the 6th June, General La Fuenta with
1500 troops from Islay revolutionized Li
ma, took possession of the Palace and the
Custles at Callao. He is a friend of Gen.
Bolivar. The markets were extremely l dull
all along the coast, and with a very few
exceptions nothing can be quoted with ac
curacy.
The United States ship Guerrier®, and
the United States ship St. Louis, arrived
at Callao 19th of June. The U. States
ship Brandywine, Commodore Jones, was
to sail next day for Rio Janeiro, and the
United States, and the United States ship
Vincennes, Capt. Finch, for the Sandwich
Islands and Cape of Good Hope.
Passengers in the Orbit—Thos F. Smith

New York, Sept. 22,
From Curaeoa. —We are indebted to
Capt. Budd, fur the brig N lpoleon, for Cu
racoa papers to the 29th ult.
We mentioned at a previous period, says
the paper of the latest date, that General
Santander, Vice President of Columbia,
was taken out of the gaol of Bocachico in
Carthagena, where he was most rigorouly
treated, to be lrasported into another place
of confinement in La Guayra, and that he
come to that effect, prisoner on board the
frigate Cundinamarca. We now learn that
the Dictator ultimately granted him his
pasport, but exclusively for Europe, for
bidding him to come into the West Indies
or any part of North America, or to write
agaidst Columbia in contravention where
of, he shall forfeit all his property, which
remains iu hostage; and in case he returns
to Columbia he is to be shot, beiita decla
red an outlaw'*, the inhabitants being also
authorixed to kill him, w henever they hap
pen to encounter him in Columbia.
It is said he arrived on the 13th inst. at
Puerto Cabello, where he received his pus
port, and on the 15th w:s brought on hoard
a Hamburg brig, which was to sail for Ham
burg.
The Peacock.—\Th\s beautiful ship,
which has been fitting for sea at the Navy
Yard, was hauled into tihe stream on Satur
day, apd anchored opposite Brooklva
Heights She is expected to sail for the
West indies in tfie course of the present

take command of the West indiua squadron,
goes out iu her as passenger. Th*s ship
has been furnished with anew suit of rig

carries 2J guns, and has a compiimeut of

The last Haverhill (N. II.) Post relates
the following esse of murcier, the horrible
particulars of w hici: are obtaiued from a

after the money urns paid over the two men
left the house, and after the girl left also,
for the purpos of going to her parents, who
lived at no great distaoce. There wajs no
suspicion in the minds of any one, that
there was any evil design in the business
till in the night. The two men who bad

Maine.—The election for Governor of
the State of Maine took pi ace last week.
Returns from twenty-five towns, including
Portland, gave for Mr. Hunton, the Nation
