Declined. —Gen. Cass has addressed a let ter, to a committee appointed by apolitical p meeting which nominated hitn for the next Presidency, declining the nomination. Mr. Sergeant. —The lion. John Sergeant has resigned his place in the Congress of the United States, as one of the Represen tatives of the city of Philadelphia. The Veto Power. —Mr. Clay in his Hal- letter lias declared war against this odious power. In his own nervous lan guage, lie says, “let us superadd to the pre vious duties which wo lay under to our country,—that of plucking from the Consti tution this sign of arbitrary power—this o dious but obsolete vestige of Royal prero gative.” A million of free people will re spond to the sentiment.— Richmond Whig. Retributive Justice. Richard Adams, the fellow who was mean enough to steal Mr. Potts’s letter from the Richmond Cof fee Mouse, and send it to the President, and who had been nominated to the Senate for an Indian Agency among the Cherokees, was rejected by the Senate. A Lilian of Prayer Throughout the World. —A number of Christians in Eng land recommended a Union of the Chris tians of all denominations in prayer, b - tween the 2d and lltli of October of this r year, The suggestion is, that from Satur day the 2d, to Monday the 11th October, 1841, inclusive, the hour betwixt eight and nine in the morning, and nine in the even ing, or as near that as possible, shall each day be given to prayer. On Saturday, the 2d October, it is recommended that fasting should be conjoined with prayer, and as much of the day as circumstances will ad mit, given to religious exercises ; and that Mondavthe 11th, being the last of the ten days, should be observed, as far as may be as a day of thanksgiving. It has recently been decided in the Supe rior Court of Hamilton county, Ohio, that the “receiving of bank notes as money is not a legal but a conventional arrangement that the law is settled that, when bank notes arc taken as money, or in payment of an antecedent debt, the risk of insolvency is upon the party from whom the bills or notes are received—even wh ti both par ties are alike ignorant in regard to the sol vency of the bank whose notes are passed, unless there is an agreement that the party who receives the notes takes them at his own risk. The reverse of this has been the generally entertained opinion. The accredited notion has been here that the re ceiver bore all loss sustained by the fail ure of a bank on which lie might chance to hold notes. Correspondence of the Charleston Courier. Washington, Sept. 22. * It has been doubted whether Justice Me Lean would give up his seat on the bench of the Supreme Court for a precarious situ ation in a patch-work Cabinet, notwithstan ijrUig his known fondness for political life; and accordingly, we have a rumor to-day, that he has signified to the President his non-acceptance of the War Department.— Many said that the nomination was a mere ruse to get clear of the Senate ; but the President was certainly very desirous to se cure th • assistance of Judge McLean, to whoni ,| VMas always stood in a friendly re lation, ‘Wi personal and political. it is supposed that the President will now offer the post to Mr. Albert II Tracy, of New-York, who will certainly accept it. Mr. Tracy was formerly a m mb -r of Con gress, and though he has sometimes act’ and with the whigs, is hotiilo to a National Bank and Mr. Clay. (I :is called a “De mocratic Whig,” which 1 believe, is to be the name of the new third party, now form ingw The Locos, so far as we learn front eve ry quarter, expect the Tyler administration to co-operate with them, for, they argue, that it must bo either sustained by them, or fall before the energetic opposition of the Clay party'. The statements put forth by Mr. Bell and Mr. Badger, in support of Mr. Ewing’s allegations, and other statements which are yet to he made public, all seem to widen the breach between the Whig pat ty (proper) and Mr. Tyler. It is plain that the new Administration is not acknowledg ed hy Mr. B II and his friend, as “ a Whig Administ ration.” Mr. Forward is diligently engaged in the .discharge #f his duties. The President’s health suffers, it is said, from his incessant and toilsome labor—now made much great er by the vacancies in the Cabinet. It was his wish to recruit himself in tile country for a few days, but he will not be able to leave the city, until all the vacancies are Aj led. Mr. Webster is in very bad health, so much so, that his friends express much apprehension on his account. It is now understood that he will remain in theCabi ■net as long as h - can coalesce with its new materials. Mis position has placed him in an attitude of hostility to the Clay portion of the party. I'h re has been no co-opera tion between Mr. Clay and Mr. Webster, since the anr they parted upon the pre emption question—on which occasion Mr. Clay jem and him injiublic and denounced him u private. We learn that the testimony in the case of McLeod will be of such a character as to render his acquittal certain ; and, in that cyint, there will be an end of all difficulty growing out of that matter. There will remain, however, our demand of suitable satisfaction for the attack on the Caroline, and many other questions of grave charac ter —any one of which may lead to difficul ties, if either party desire a collision. But the prospect of a continuance of peace is certainly much improved by the last advi ces from England, as well as by events • hefe. I understand, however, that a distinguish ed citizen of the United States, (Mr. C. F. Mercer.) now in England, writes to his friends here, that such is the tone of feeling in Great Britain towards this country, that a war is inevitable—unless we choose tamely to endure accumulated insults and aggressions. P. S. Sept. 23—The report, that Judge McLean had declined the appointment of Secretary of War, is premature. The Pre sident has received no reply from him as yet, nor from Gov. Wicktitfo. In a day or two, we shall know more of the matter. The letter from Mr. Webster to the Mas sachusetts Senators, urging the postpone ment of the second Bank Bill, and dated August 22nd, throws new light on the posi tion in regard to the President and his late colleagues. It shows that Mr. Webster, without yielding his opinions on the Bank question, was averse to forcing it upon the President, at the close of tlie session, and under circumstances which seemed to indi cate an intention to inconvenience or head him. Land Bill. —Mr. Rayner, of N. C., in his speech in the House of Representatives, Ju ly Bth, submitted the following statement, showing the amount which each State would receive under this bill, $3,300,000 to bo distributed each year, and supposing the ratio of representation under the late census to bo put at 60,000. If any other ratio should be agreed on, (he adds.) the relative proportion will be the same. The sums are stated in round numbers: Maine, $96,000j5. Carolina, $84,000 N.Hampsh ire,48,0001 Georgia, 108,000 Vermont, 48.000 j Alabama, 90,000 Massachus’s 144.000 Mississippi, 48,000 Connecticut, 60,000 Louisiana, 48,000 Rhode Island, 12.000 j Tennessee, 144,000 New.York, 480,000 Kentucky, 132.000 New Jersey, 72,000 Ohio, ‘ 300,000 Permsylva’a 336,000 Indiana, 132,000 Delaware, 12,000 Missouri, 84,000 Maryland, 72,000 Illinois, 00,000 Virginia, 204,000 Arkansas, 12,000 N. Carolina, 120,000 Michigan, 35,000 GREAT EXCITEMENT ON THE FRONTIER. A transaction took place at Alburgh on the night of the 19th, which has produced an unparallelled excitement on the Fron tier. James Grogan who formerly resided in Canada, but a natural born citizen of the United States, while returning from Michi gan to Alburgh, was captured by adotach inen of British Dragoons under Capt. Jones. Grogan was sleeping at the house of his brother-in-law—the soldiers surrounded the house, forced it open, and entered Grogan’s bedroom, who defended himself against his assailants until severely wounded in the legs and tldghs by bayonets. His face was literally flayed, and his cloths torn off. He was wrapped in a buffalo robe, thrown into a wagon, carried across the lines and sent to Montreal in irons. When this af fair became known at St. Albans, a public meeting was held, and a Committee was appointed to examine into the transaction, & report to a subsequent meeting to be held. Arrest of one of the Murderers of Mary Rogers. —W ■ learn from a gentleman who arrived in town from Albany this morning that a very important arrest has been effec ted in that city by two New York officers. An individual for whom they had been in search two weeks—and against whom strong suspicions and circumstances exist that he was engaged in tin- horrible [or WechawkenJ tragedy, was discovered by them on Saturday ov< nijrg, and taken into custody early the next morning. II - will of course be brought on to this city as pri vately as possible, and examined* before the Mayor.— N. Y. Evening Taller. Wanted no Longer. —“ Don’t want you any longer,” said an employer to a tali clerk. “I am very sorry for i; sir, 1 thought 1 gave you perfect .satisfaction,” “So you do-i--but we dou’t want you any longer.”— “What have 1 done, sir?” “Done! why you liuv nt done growing ; and if you keep on you will be as long as a May pole !” From the United Stales Gazette. TESTIMONY OF AN OPPONENT. In a conversation held with a gentleman who came from Washington to Philadel phia, in the same cur with Mr. Woodbury, speaking of Henry Clay, Mr. W. said, “ well, after all, it must be admitted that, as u Statesman, Mr. Clay is a head and shoul dors taller than any other man in this coun try.” This was an honest confession ; and, coming from the source it did—falling from the reluctant lips of an opponent, is proud testimony to the transcemlant abilities of the great Statesman of the West. Time, and his fellow-citizens, for whose interests Mr.Clay has laboured so long and so arduously to promote, are beginning to do that great and magnanimous man jus tice ; let his friends not despair, for Truth is mighty, and will prevail. Hard to Answer. —Among some parlia mentary records of bribery in die age of Elizabeth, which arc quoted by an English paper, is the following singular passage : “Thomas Long, a very simple man, and unfit to serve, is questioned how he came to be elected.” We think the same ques tion might puzzle some American legisla tors of die present day. From the S. C. Advocate. NEWBURY AGRICULTURAL SOCI ETY. Report on Colton, No. 1. In obedience to your appointment, I state the mode of planting and cultivating Cotton which I pursue and think to be the"best The ground is first to be put into good or der. [fit has not been in Cotton the pre vious year, it should be well broke up. It is then laid offas follows : in old land, 3 j feet between the rows, and in fresh land 4 feet: (he bed is formed by throwing two furrows with a twister on the listing : that makes a high ridge. The seed is then well rubbed in common earth, and is planted heed and toe from 12 to 18 inches apart. — The planting heel and toe is accomplished I by making the impression on the ridge for j the seed with the heel, and covering it with the foot. This mode of planting leaves the ridge high and smooth. It lakes much less seed, and is, in my judgement, the best and safest wav of planting a cotton crop.— When thus planted, the cotton comes up strong in bunches, and the ground is less broken up by the coming up of the plant, than in drilling, and there is more earth left about the roots, and there is, therefore, loss danger ofits dying out: the stand is always better. When the cotton comes up, I throw out the middle between the rows with a twister and that makes the narrow planting bed a nice wide one for the growth of the plant, which is precisely in the middle. The next business is hoeing, and thinning to two stalks in a place, which make astand. The next time it is worked, I side it with a shov el plough, and hoe it the third time. I side and plough the row out, and if is clear, it is unnecessary to use the hoe. Cotton, I think, ought to he ploughed five times—the last time should be the last of July or the first of August. The hoe should follow the two last ploughings, so as to have it perfect ly clear when laid by. Ifthe cotton is well grown, and the sea son is a good one, I prefer topping it from the 10th to the 20th of August. If it is not seasonable do not top. The cotton crop should he gathered as speedily as possible ; to leave cotton in the field after Christmas is to sustain a heavy loss in both quantity and quality. After that time, a hand cannot make more than half a day’s work. THOS. MONTGOMERY. M AIIRI E I) , In New-Hampton, N. H., on the 21st, ultimo, bv the Rev. Prof. J. Newton Brown, WILLIAM CAREY RICHARDS, Esq. of Penfieid, Ga., to Miss CORNELIA 11. BRADLEY, of Hudson, N. Y. U ,UJ), Died, on Friday morning the Ist inst. alter a painful & protrac. ed illness, GEORGE FRAN CIS, youngest son of William H. and Sarah Ann Dyson, aged one year, six months and two days. In this dispensation ot Providence, all those who i knew this interesting and lovely child, cannot fail to sympathize and mourn deeply with the berea ved parents in their irreparable loss; for the j child was one truly calculated to win the love j and all'ection of all who knew him. Vet, while ! we grieve and sympathize with the affectionate ! parents, we are consoled by the heart-cheering language of our Saviour, who said “ Suffer httie j children to come unto me, and forbid them not, j for ol such is the Kingdom of Heaven.” And a gaiu we are assured lliat our loss is his infinite gam—for that body which was so long racked with pain, now hes silent in the tomb ; while the sainted spirit has flown to the realms of eternal bliss and happiness at God’s right hand, to join that happy and blessed train, in ceaseless praises to their Redeemer. Then may we say : “ Happy child, thy days are ended, All thy painful days below ; Go ! by Angel guards attended To the arms o> Jesus, go ! Waiting to receive thy spirit, Lo ! thy Saviour stands above, Shows the purchase ol his merit, Reaches out his arms of love.” Died, in Mallorysviile, on the 16th ultimo, of Conges ive Fever,’Mrs. NANCY WOOTTEN, wife of Mr. Lemuel Wootten, aged 57 years.— She has Jelt a husband, seven children, and a numerous train of relatives and friends to de plore the sad bereavement. Departed this life on Thursday evening, 23d ult., ai:er a lingering and painful illness ol near three mouths, Mrs. SOPHIA HINTON, con sort o. James Hinton, in the 59th year oi her age. Mrs. Hinton was an exemplary member of the Baptist Church during the last thirty years of her hie. In her were truly blended all those amia ble dispositions and Christian graces, which sweeten the hitter cup of life, and smooth the pathway to the tomb. Asa wife, she was in deed a help-meet, for him who is now disconso late ; as a mother, kind and indulgent; and in the ordinary relations ot life, modest and retiring in her deportment, and firm in her friendships.— Her cheerful disposition endeared her to all who knew her, and rendered the place where she a bode, a place of pleasantness and peace. By the death of Mrs. Hinton, the Church and communi ty have iost one of their most valuable members; and above ail, an affectionate husband and a number of children and grand-children are left to mourn their irreparable loss. But, let them not weep—for their loss has been her eternal gam; she has exchanged a scene ol agony and pain, for an eternity of happiness and joy. jt. BAPTIST CHURCH, Washington, Ga., Sept. 1841. Resolved, That this Church feels sensibly the loss we have sustained in the removal by death, of our venerable and beloved Pastor, JESSE MERCER. That in him, they, together with the denomination and the Christian community, have lost an able expositor of the inspired Oracles, a faithful preacher of the Word of Life, a wise and prudent councilor in tilings pertaining to the interests of Christ's Kingdom, and a munificent benefactor, such as it has rarely been their privilege to enjoy ; That in looking back upon the long series of years during which we, in common with the Christian community, have enjoyed the services of this distinguished man of God, we feel a mingled emotion of gratitude that those services were continued so long, and sorrow that they are now closed forever ; And now that the hand that so long broke unto us the bread of life is palsied in death, and the heart that even the frosts of age could not forbid to feel deeply for our Spir itual interests shall yearn over us no more in this world, we would hold iti grateful remembrance all his services, and how “ He ceased not to admonish and entreat men night and day with tears.”—Humbly praying that the seed sown by the hands of this servant of the Most High, may spring up and produce a yet more abundant har vest. Resolved, That wo sincerely sympathise with his surviving family in tile loss which they have sustained in the removal of their venerable relative. Resolved, That the expression of condo lence with us on this occasion of deep af fliction. by the citizens of Penfieid, is most I gratefully received, and that wc accord to them the same expressions. Resolved, That this Church acknowledg es the truly Christian spirit manifested hv the Presbyterian Church, of this place, in the communication transmitted hy their Committee, and that we receive that ex pression of sympathy as seasonable and highly acceptable in our painful bereave ment. Resolved, That in reference to a final resting-place lor the remains ofour depart ed Pastor, we believe that it was his inten tion to bo placed beside his wife ; a spot of ground in our Church-yard having been granted him (at his request,) for that pur pose, and it is the desire of the Church that this request be complied with. Resolved, That in the event of his final interment at any other place, this Church as a farther expression of her regard for the memory of her deceased Pastor, cause to be procured a suitable tablet of marble, with an appropriate inscription, to be inserted in some proper situation upon the walls of this house. Resolved. That the Church do hereby re quest the officiating Minister to preach a Sermon in memory of our deceased Pastor, on the morning of the first Sabbath in Oc tober. Resolved, That a copy of these Resolu tions, together with the communication from the Presbyterian Church, be transmit ted for publication in the Christian Index and News and Gazette. Done in Conference, this 25th day of September, 184 1. RICHARD W. JOYNER, Church Clerk. Sunday, 19th Sept. 1841. Dear Brethren and esteemed friends : Asa Committee of the Presbyterian Church, wc transmit to you a copy of the proceedings of a meeting held this morning at the close of divine service, which you will receive as a testimonial of our sense of departed worth, and a token of our sincere participation with you in your recent be- j reavement. We are, your sympatizing friends and brethren, GEO. H. VV. PETRIE, A. S. WINGFIELD, LOCK WEEMS. Rev. C. F. Sturgis, and Deacons, of the Baptist Church. At a meeting of tlie members of the Pres byterian Church, convened this morning after service, with the view of giving a suit able expression oftheir feelings as aChitrch upon the bereavement which has afflicted 1 their community, in the decease of the Rev. JESSE MERCER. Pastor of the Baptist Church, Dr. John H. Pope, was called to the Chair, and A. S. Wingfield, appointed Secretary. Rev. Mr. Petrie opened the meeting with a few remarks, and then offered the follow ing Preamble and Resolutions, which were unanimously adopted : In view of the affliction with which Di- J vine Providence lias visited us in the loss of our venerable friend, the Rev. Jesse I Mercer, we, the members of the Presbyte rian Church, do adopt the following Reso lutions, as an expression of our feelings on this mournful occasion: Resolved, That we sincerely and deeply deplore the heavy calamity which has be fallen our community in the decease of this venerable Minister of Christ. Resolved , That we tender our cordial sympathy to our brethren of the Baptist Church, in this their bereavement, in the decease of their beloved Pastor, and that we mourn their loss as our loss. Resolved, That as a testimony of the re spect and esteem we entertain for the char acter of our departed friend, also for our brethren of the Baptist Church, our house of worship shall he closed on the morning of the first Sabbath in October, when, as we are informed, an appropriate funeral dis course will be delivered in the Baptist Church. Resolved, That a Committee be appoint ed to transmit a copy of these proceedings to the officiating Minister and Deacons of the Baptist Church, and through them to the members generally. JOHN 11. POPE, Chairman. A S. Wingfield, Secretary. PR. ESENTAI EN i\S. The Grand Jurors sworn and chosen for the county of Elbert, at September Term of the Superior Court. 1811, make the following Presentments, to-wit.: We have examined the records of the Superior, Inferior, and Court of Ordinary, and find them neatly and correctly kept. We have examined the County Treasu ry, and find in the hands of the Treasurer the sum of Seventy-eight Dollars and twen ty-two cents, mostly in uncurrent funds. We feel it our duty to present as a very great grievance the unsafe condition of the County Jail, and earnestly call the attention of the proper authority to the remedy of the evil here complained of. It must be mor tifying to the feelings of every citizen of the Count}', to know that it is necessary to car ry criminals to the Jails of adjoining Coun ties for safe-keeping, in order to enforce the Criminal Laws of the State, and thereby in curring in a few years, an expense much greater than it would be to build a safe and ■1 u• able Jail We present as a great public grievance the very partial and inefficient manner in which the Patrol duty is performed. We believe that in a great portion of the Dis tricts in the County, the Patrol service is entirely neglected, owing to the neglect of those to whom the execution of this impor tant law has been confided. We are gratified to state that most of the Roads in the County are in a tolerable con dition ; there are however some which yet remain unworked, and we recommend to the Commissioners of the Districts where the Roads have not been worked, to have them repaired without unnecessary delay. We preprint Oliver Crawford, of said county, for the offence of wilful, knowing and absolute perjurv. on the twentv-ninth day of June, eighteen hundred and forty one, in said County : Witnesses, Henry P. Maltox, Briggs Sanders, and Moses E. i Mills. M e have examined the Tax Collector’s insolvent list, and allow him a credit on the j State Tax for the sum of Eight-seven Dol | lars, and a credit on the County Tax for | the sum of Forty-three Dollars ; we allow | him a further credit of the sum of Nineteen j Dollars and thirty-seven and a half cents j State Tax, and the sum of Nino Dollars I sixty-eight and three quarters of a cent on account of James W. Strawn, not being a citizen of the county ; the further credit of One Dollar and thirty-seven and a half cents State Tax, and One Dollar and eight een and three quarters of a cent on account of County Tax, being an overcharge in Barden Rucker’s Taxes, and tne further sum of One Dollar and eighty-three cents State Tax, and Ninety-one cents County Tax, being a mistake in Thomas B. Bul lard’s Tax. We fully concur in the views of his Hon or, given in his charge to this body, of the numerous defects in our Judiciary system, and also with the Grand Jury of Taliaferro county, in their recommendations to the Legislature, and recommend to our Senator and Representatives in the next Legisla ture to introduce a bill authorizing his Ex cellency the Governor to appoint throe or more competent persons to revise a Code of Laws for this State, believing that more good might he effected in this way than by twenty year’s legislation. To Judge Andrews, we tender our thanks for his courtesy, and our approval of ids a ble and impartial administration during this term. We also tender our thanks to the Solicitor-General, for his strict attention to business and his politeness to our body. Wo request that the foregoing Present ments he published in the News and Plan ters’ Gazette. WILLIAM A. BECK, Foreman. Madison Baker, John Downer, George Eavenson, John Snellings, Horatio J.
