WASHINGTON, GA.
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1842.
FOR PRESIDENT,
Fires.
The Giu-houso of Mr. Woodson Calla
way, near this town, with a small quantity
of Cotton, was accidentally consumed by
lire on the night of Sunday last.
The Dwelling-house of Mr. William
Walton, in this county, was burnt Inst Fri
day night. We have not learned how the
fire originated.
Off Major Joel Crawford, Senator from
Hancock county, has resigned his seat for
certain privato reasons.
OCT* The Loco Focos are boasting might
ily over their victory in Ohio. Will they
tell their readers that their candidate for
Governor was elected by a minority of the
people? His vote is 1800 less than the
united votes of Corwin and King, though he
has a plurality of over 3300. Had it not
been lor the Abolitionists, who, with the
Loco-focos, opposed Corwin, the Whig can
didate, on account of their hatred to Mr.
Clay, the result would have been in our
favor. The South ought to remember this.
Mr. Clay, after his severe reply to the Ab
olitionists, which we publish to-day, will
• meet with no favor from those fanatics.
OCT General Cass is another candidate,
for the favars of the democracy. His friends
have issued a circular, containing his life
and public services, and a call for his “De
mocratic Republican friends,” to meet at
the Court-House in Harrisburgh, Pennsyl
vania, on Monday the 21st inst. for the pur
pose of nominating him to the Presidency.
We think Gen. Cass the most upright, hon
est, and not the least talented of the demo
cratic candidates now in the field, he has
rendered services to the country which, if
not as brilliant as those of other statesmen,
are at least as useful. Next to Mr. Clay,
we regard him, in spite of his political as
sociations, as the most eligible of any of
the present candidates ; one next best qual
ified to do honor to the office of President,
and to the country, if elected. To suppose
however, that such a man as Gen. Cass,
“ who never invented a humbug,” and is
not much of a Locofoeo can obtain the sup
port of that party, shows rather a ridiculous
ignorance of the character of “ the dtmoe
racy” on the part jfh; friends.
03”'IV C* *• - * - Engineer of the Western
and Atlantic H i-road has made his quar
terly report, from which it appears that the
sum payable during the third quarter of
1842, is $91,821 28, and that $174,165,
aro required for the road during the pres
ent year. We hope the Legislature will
not appropriate a dollar to the Road—but
will either make arrangements to have it
sold or give it away to any doody fool e
nough to take it. The stoppage or des
truction of the “ Grand Snout” and of sev
eral other Rail Roads in Georgia could not
be regarded as a calamity by the people, to
a majority of whom they are of no manner
of benefit—but on the contrary, an injury.
03” The publishers of the New World
have lately issued two valuable scientific
works, “ Agricultural Chemistry” by Jus
tus Liebeg, and “ Animal Chemistry” by
the same Author. These works which
cannot be afforded by the book-sellers for
less than three or four dollars, are publish
ed at the exceedingly low price of 25 cents
each.
-- - —.• MMI VrtU*
The New-York Tribune says :
“ Mr. Robinson, the U. S. Loan Agent,
came, home in the Britannia. He says that
nobody would even talk about the loan.
Private letters stato that all moneyed men
would frown upon any attempt to take a
loan from this country, until something is
done in relation to the repudiating States.”
Here we have another of the fruits of
Loco Foco misrule. A loan, inconsider
able when the resources of this country are
considered, is refused to the United States,
because the Democratic Legislatures of
some particular States refuse to fulfill their
sacred obligations, while petty European
States and even cities, can readily obtain
double the amount upon a less rate of inter
est titan the U. S. loan is offered at. Thus
have that party not only destroyed our na
tional prosperity but ournational credit.
.. We shall not be surprised ifthe abomina
ble doctrine of repudiation is broached a
gain, in the Georgia legislature during the
coming session and it may meet with coun
tenance from some demagogues who expect
to curry favor with the people. Such men
will, however, find themselves mistaken,
there is yet too much honesty mr.oog the
Dcmocra's of thisStute to follow any leader
who advocates it. They know that a man
who favors it must be the most consummate
of rascals both in private and public.
Texas.
Accounts from Tevtts announce that the
Mexicans have commenced the invasion of
that country with u vigor unprecedented by
them. Several skirmishes have taken place
in which the Texiuns have shown much
bravory, but seem to have come off rather
the worst; many prisoners have been taken
by the Mexicans, who as they say in a letter
to their compatriots, are treated with all the
kindness compatible with their condition as
prisoners of war. The peopled Texas are
turning out cn masse, and will have to un
dergo a long and arduous contest, ns there
is no doubt that the English have interfered
on the side of Mexico, and are scarcely tak
ing the trouble to conceal the aid and as
sistance they are affording to her govern
ment.
Now that the wolf has actually come,
the almost desperute situation of Texas
seems to excite little sympathy in the Uni
ted States. She has given the cry of alarm
100 often, and our people are slow to believe
her now. Her authorities have shamefully
misused the volunteers who went to her as
sistance upon the former false alarm ; their
treatment of them cannot easily be forgot
ten or forgiven. Before she can again ob-
I tain efficient help from the United States,
| she should give some guarantee, that those
! who go to fight her battles shall receive
j better treatment than did former volunteers.
IMPORTANT TREATY.
From the St. Louis Republican of the
10th, received last night, we learn that an
important treaty has been concluded be
tween Gov. Chambers, Commissioner on
the part of the United States, and the Sac
and Fox Nations of Indians. The Repub
lican says:
“The Sacs and Foxes have sold all their
country between the Mississippi and Mis
souri rivers, (about 12 millions of acres.) —
They are to remain in possession of tho
western portion of their country, for three
years. The eastern portion, including the
country between the present boundary and
the White Breast river on the Des Moines,
will be given u:i by rite first of May next.—
The country is rich and beautiful. The
United States are t provide a home for the
Sacs and Foxes . • w, st side of the Mis
souri. Thepric. ; .ts about §1,059,000
of which $800,001.’ ;to he invested for the
Indians —the Unit; •! States guaranteeing an
annual interest of 6 percent.
The treaty is regarded as very favorable
to the Government, and no less so to the
Indians. The land will cost about 9 cents
per acre.”
MONROE RAIL ROAD.
The City of Savannah, by the action of
her city council, has determined to loan her
credit to the amount of Fifty Thousand dol
lars to the Monroe Road Company, to ena
ble them to complete the road. In refer
ence to the progress of the road the Griffin
Gazette of the 21st inst. has the following:
“The Monroe Rail Road, it is expected,
will be completed, in the course of next
week, from Macon to Griffin. There are
only, we understand, a few connecting bars
of iron to supply between the sections, and
about a mile at this end to lay down, and
the work will be finished. Atthesametirne
the road is rapidly progressing above us,
under the contract recently made for finish
ing it. The freight on Cotton from Griffin
to Macon has been reduced to a dollar per
bale.”
The Hawkinsvillebank have issued bills
payable at the office in Macon, in Specie.
The old bills of which very few are in cir
culation, are redeemed in Central Bank
bills.— Macon Messenger.
Still another Death by Violence. —Mr.
John A. Deane, a respectable citizen of this
place, and Clerk of one of our Courts, was
on Wednesday evening last involuntarily
drawn into a quarrel, and although unarm
ed, was stabbed to the heart, and immedi
ately fell dead in one of our streets. He
was not, it appears, of the party who had
been engaged in the previous quarrel, but
cidentally drawn Into it, and without” ap
prehending danger, received the fatal stab.
Mr. D’s. sudden and unexpected death is
deeply lamented by our community. His
remains were followed to the grave by the
Metropolitan Greys, the Masonic fraternity,
and a large concourse of citizens. He lias
left a bereaved widow ami chiid, ever to
lament his premature death, arising from
the too frequent practice, in defiance of law,
of carrying deadly weapons. Cicero Buf
fington has been committed to our jail,
charged with having committed the offence,
and two of his brothers, one the Sheriff of
our county, have had to give bond for their
appearance, charged with having been ac
cessory. As the matter will undergo a
judicial investigation, we refrain from any
additional remarks. But we lament, truly
lament the occurrence, and hope the day
is not for distant when the public morals
will be reformed, and law and order re
gain their wonted sway, for we blush for
the present degeneracy of the times.
Milledgeville Recorder.
The Coitem Trade. —An illustration of the
immensity of the cotton trade is afforded by
the fact that the destruction of 35,000 or
40,000 bales by the great fire in Liverpool,
produced no effect upon prices.
Vermont.—' The Hon. William Upham of
Montpelier is chosen Sonator for six years
from the 4th of March next.
The Presbyterian Church, Old School. —
It is stated in the Presbyterian Almanac,
for 1813, that there are attached to this
branch of the Presbyterians, 1,399 minis
ters, 110,403 communicants, (exclusive of
4 Presbyteries not reported,) and 2,025
church* s.
The Univorsulist Register, for 1843, says
there are m the United States 02 associa
tions, 918 societies, 577 meeting-houses,
| and 578 preachers. During the past year,
’ the and. nomination has gained 1 state con
vention, 3 associations, 53 societies, 40
meeting houses, und 48 preachers.
Ex-President Jackson.—The Nashville
Whig of the 15th ult. says, “ We under
stand that Gen. Jackson received a painful
injury in the forehead,, on Thursday lust,
| by the upsetting of Major Donelson’s car
riage, near the Hermitage, in which he was
| riding out to visit a sick neighbor. The
accident was caused by the restiveness of
the horses, which the driver was unable to
’ control. Wo hope the injury will not prove
a serious one.”
It is worthy of remark that two of the
five recreant Jerseymcn who got into Con
gress by trampling on the Broad Seal of
their State, have been once more condemn
ed by the People ; Mr. Kille, the candidate
for Council in Salem county at the late e
lection, and Mr. Cooper, also a candidate
for the Legislature in Gloucester, having
been rejected by very decisive majorities.
Four times have the People of New-Jersey
pronounced their condemnation on that re
volutionary act. Newark Daily Ado.
Bankrupt Law. —The New-York Trib
une says : “ The Legislature of Vermont
has unanimously passed resolutions in fa
vor of a repeal of the Bankrupt Law. We
presume there is more good sense in Ver
mont than really to desire the repeal of this
law ; but a Loco Foco having introduced
the resolution, the Whigs did not see fit to
breast the clamor which would be raised
on its rejection, and lot it pass without op
position.”
David R. Porter, Governor of Pennsyl
vania, being lately sued by A. J. Ratlirock
a house carpenter, for §55, being a balance
due for work on his bouse, pleaded privi
lege as Governor to be exempted from ar
rest, and for the abatement of the writ! Is
not this the lowest depth of meanness? If
some ‘Federal Aristocrat’had done it, how
the land would have rung with execration!
The Justice overruled the plea, so far as it
asked an abatement of the writ, and gave
judgement for the full amount claimed.
A fat windfall. —We understand, on good
authority, that Francis Upton Fenno, Esq.,
of Upton Cottage, Otsego county, a young
lawyer, through the death of a relative in
England, has become the heir of a fortune
of §409,000 and 60,000 acre's of land ly
ing in the State of Alabama.— Chenango N.
Y. Telegraph.
The Richmond Whig after some excel
lent and pertinent observations upon a spe
cial case, thus remarks upon a subject gen
erally :
“ We end, then, as we began—that poli
tics are, in this country, a huge briar-patch
through which the smallest creatures make
their way with least harm. Rabbits and
reptiles, (things that can creep and wrigle)
get along best. Any thing larger, unless
fenced with the skin of a jackass, has to take
the clearing tools, the briar hook and grub
bing hoe, and will com ■■ out at last, with an
empty belly, and aplenty of nothing but
scratches.”
HUNG FOR FUN.
The last Tennessee Review states that
grand jury of Campbell couniy,Tenn., has
found a true bill against George Smith, J.
H. Todd, Loftin Duke, James Pearce, and
Leroy Brown, for the murder ofa slave be
longing to John Miller. They had all got
in a drunken spree, and under the influ
ence of liquor, enticed the negro into a loft,
and hung him for fun, intending to cut him
down in a moment or two before life should
bo extinct. Their drunken frolic was car
ried too far-—the negro died, and a similar
death or a long and painful imprisonment
awaits the perpetrators of the act. Like
many other frolics of the same kind, it costs
dear in the end.
Every body wants money notv-a-days,
and nobody has got any.

M V It It I E I) ,
On the 20thultimo, by the Rev. W. II Stokes,
I Mr. WILLIAM F. WILBURN to Miss MAR
j THA ELIZABETH, second daughter of Rev.
iB. M. Sanders, all of Penfield, (Jr.ion <o, Ga.
To my Creditors.
Having been frequently asked, even by
your own number, why 1 do not avail my.
| self ofthe general Bankrupt Act. 1 have
j now thus briefly to reply, That although
| none perhaps could do so with more pro
j priety than myself, having every document
j to ensure my discharge, and although I had
concluded to take refuge under, so humane
j a law, and had prepared my papers, and
| entered my petition for the purpose, yet,
upon my mature reflection, I now doubt the
justice of annulling any honorable, volun
tary contract, without an equivalent, or by
the mutual consent of parties. And not
wishing to know the right
D O
And yet wrong pursue.
Unless forced to the measure I have re
solved to abandon all idea of wearing a
shield that would only tend to render me
more unhappy. Our State laws are more
over, mild, very mild, allowing the unfor
tunate debtor to retain, not only the requi
sites oflife, but even the possession of land.
And as every good citizen should bo proud
of his native, or adopted home, he should
also feel willing to bo governed by its laws. |
Let then the withering blight of adversity j
continue with me, and I will endeavour a- I
midst its desolation, at least to find a peace- I
ful conscience. And
As man wants but little here below,
! Nor, wants that little long,
Having food and raiment, I hope there
with to he content, and even yet to meet, at
least in part, the demands against me.—
And as I feel satisfied with this community
and wish with them to dwell, should any of
you i.e anxious to know, vou will i’ltd but
little difficulty in learning where I am, as
in Athens I hope to spend the residue of my
days, y s, lis here I wish to live and shall
pi: hups die. After which, standing as 1 do,
almost disconnected with the world, there
will he none for me to weep. And as 1
have through life, made some pretentionsto
honesty, and most of my wild errors, ha
ving emanated more, I hope from the head,
than the heart, 1 shall when I die, feel proud
of bequeathing- to an only cousin in
Virginia, at least the reputation of an hon
est man.
