FOR PRESIDENT,
ttuanißir
05“ “ Orion” fur March and April is a
very good number—containing many- ex
cellent papers, both prose and poetry. An

OCR An “ Irish Repeal Meeting” for the
purpose of encouraging the people of Ire
land in the efforts they are now making for
the “ repeal of the Union,” was held on the
27th ult. at Milledgevilte. Much sympa
thy was expressed for the oppressed people
of “Emerald’s Green Isle,” an Island by
the way we never heard of before, and
which is not to be found on any map, and a
request was made that all the papers in the
State would publisTi the proceedings of the
meeting, the use or propriety of which we
cannot perceive, the people of Georgia not
having, as we conceive, any more business
with the Government of the British territo
ries than Daniel O'Connell has with our
domestic Institutions.
Whig Meeting.
Agreeable to appointment, a numerous
and respectable portion of the Whig party
of Wilkes assembled in Washington on
Tuesday the 6th inst. for the purpose of
selecting Delegates to represent them in tile
Convention to be holden in Milledgeville on
the 3d Monday of the present month.
On motion, A. S. Wingfield, Esq. u'as
called to the Chair, and J- 11. Sneed, Esq.
requested to act as Secretary.
The object of the meeting having been
briefly stated, it was moved by D. G. Coi
ling, Esq. that the Chair appoint a Commit
tee of five to nominate to the meeting four
suitable individuals to represent the party
in the Convention aforesaid.
Whereupon the Chair appointed D. G.
Cutting, Geo. W. Carter, James N. Wing,
field, L. M. Hill, and James Harris, that
Committee, who retired and after a brief
consultation returned and submitted to the
meeting the following Report:
“ Tho committee appointed to make se
lection of Delegates to the Whig Conven
tion at Milledgeville on-the 3d Monday of
the present month, Report, that they have
made choice of Messrs. Robert Toombs,
Henry F. Ellington, Lucius J. Gartrell,
and George W. Calloway.”
Which was read and unanimously a
■ dopted.
After loud and repeated calls, Mr. Toombs
here arose and addressed the meeting for
about thirty minutes in his usual eloquent
and felicitous style.
, James M. Smythe, Esq. was also called
for, but being mucli indisposed, bo was for
ced to decline.
On (potion, it was ordered that the pro
ceedings of the meeting be published in the
News & Planters’ Gazette.
A. S. WINGFIELD, Chairman.
J. It. Sneed, Secretary.
The Wliigs and their Candi
date.
Many hints have been thrown out by the
Loeo-foco press to the effect that the Whigs
intend to drop Henry Clay, and substitute
some other candidate for the Presidency.
Such insinuations are intended to operate
on the weak and wavering (of whom how
ever, there are, thank Heaven, few) of the
Whig party. Where the wise-acres who
conduct the Democratic press find ground
for their suppositions, it is impossible to
tell—certainly not from the Whig papers ;
for although we have read them carefully,
as is our duty, we have found not the least
intimation of the most distant idea of aban
doning Mr. Clay ; if their information is
verbal and from Whigs, it came from those
tvho have no knowledge of the disposition
and condition of their party. We can well
conceive that the managers of the Demo
cratic party would greatly rejoice over and
magnify the faintest symptom of dissatis
faction among us which might lead to any
such distraction and divisions as now per
vade their own ranks—but, with them “the
wish is father to the thought”—the design
which they impute to the Whigs exists on
ly in their own imaginations.
Firm and united under the banner of
their chosen leader, nothing but his death
will prevent the Whigs from ultimate tri
umph. No other rnan in the nation can
so concentrate theiropinions upon himself,
none other can so fully obtain their support,
none other oan unite in himself the grati.
Hide due for great public services and the
admiration all honorable men pay to an
upright and generous character, and no
other is so much feared and respected by
bis and oUr opponents. Tho reward due
to him for a long life well spenti in his
country’s cause, can no longer be withheld.
For him the Whigs will vote, and for him
only; if by any accident they should be
deprived of their glorious leader, then may
the so called Democrats assure themselves
of an easy victory, for he is the (ife and
soul of our party, the very impersonation of
their principles ; if by fraud or violence lie
should be defeated, then will there be but
one party in this nation—the Chief Magis
tracy will become an oflice which no hon
est man will bi^ve —a goal to which “vi
pers will crawl, when mah disdains to
climb,” —a fountain of corruption whose
stream will sweep this republic into the a
byss where other republics have sunk be
fore her. Henry Clay is and will he the
candidate of the Whig party, and can and
must be elected. Let our friends then
place no credit in the insiduous inuendoes
of their opponents, they have no foundation
in truih, they are but a part of their usual
system of chicanery and falsehood.
The Colitintms Trials).
The trial of John L. Lewis, accused of
being accessory to the Columbus Bank
Robbery, has resulted in a verdict of ac
quittal. The Jury were out about thirty
hours, which proves not that his guilt was
by any means doubtful, but more piobably
that they were ashamed to show their faces
to the public with such a verdict. Public
opinion however, renders a very Liferent
verdict from that of the Jury, and univer
saliv condemns Lewis. A verv large
meeting of the people of Columbus was held
immediately after lilt; trial, at which, reso
lutions were passed condemning the present
mode of selecting Jurors by which crimi
nals are so often enabled to escape, and re
commending that the Legislature make a
change in the law in this respect; a reso
lution was also passed requesting Lewis to
resign his office of Solicitor-General of the
Circuit, which he has the shamelessness
still to retain.
The Columbus Enquirer gives us a se
vere rebuke, “ and clinches it with Scrip
ture,” because we thought proper to pub
lish an extract from the N. Y. Tribune, di
vulging, as the Enquirer says “one of the
most extensive and well-laid plans ever hit
upon by a set of conspirators to rob the
State and people,” which, it seems, accord
ing to the Enquirer, “was a profound se
oret.” Avery profound secret truly, (a
. bout as profound as the Editor of the'En
quirer himself,) which is published in one
of the most extensively circulated papers
in the Union, which is republished in other
papers in Georgia beside ours, which was
the subject of common street talk through
out the State, before we published it, and
which we thought (finding the Columbus
papers not disposed to sa v any thing about
it,) we should do no harm by copying from
tbo Tribune, never supposing that could bo
la profound secret which was so widely
known. We are not disposed to quarrel
with so good a Whig as the Editor of the
Enquirer, but we advise him
“ not to kick before he is spurred” here
after.
A Meteor. —On Saturday evening last, a
meteor of uncommon size and brilliancy,
was seen to pass over our town; its course
was from west to east. After passing across
the chief part of the heavens, it hurst into
several fragments with a noise much loud
er than that of a cannon. From the inter
val which elapsed between the disappear
ance and the sound, our informant conject
ures that it was about forty miles distant.
Columbia (S. C.) Planter, 31 st ult.
The same beautiful meteor was observed
here. Those who saw it,say that it appear
ed about the size of a man’s head, [t pro
ceeded from a point a little north of the zp
nith and burst near the eastern horizon; no
noise was observed to follow its explosion.
It must have been at a great distance, as
we are informed by travellers that it was
seen, of a similar size and at the same ele
vation, 100 miles south-west of this place.

MR. MARSHALL, OF KENTUCKY.
This gentleman thus speaks of General
J ackson :
“He has never been through life with
out an antagonist, and he has always been
victorious. His horses always won when
he was a racer. He had a contest with
Dickenson, and killed him. He had a fra
cas with the Bentons and cleared them out.
He used up Packenham and the British ar
my at New.Orleans, those veterans who
had gone through the war of Peninsula,
without meeting an adversary who could
withstand them for a moment. He hung
Arbuthnot and Ambrister, and bullied the
Senate when called to account for it. He
beat John Quincy Adams in the race for the
Presidency, and crushed the “monster
Bank” under the heel of his military boot.
For the many injuries he has done the j
country, it would seem that some retribu- j
tion were due in the next world if not in
this. But even there the Hero has proved i
too hard for his enemy ; for he has turned [
Presbyterian and cheated the Devil him- I
self.” |
From the Georgia Journal of Tuesday.
THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
The Convention, called to nominate a de
mocratic candidate for Governor, assemb
led at the State-House on Monday morning
at 10 o'clock. For jhe of organi
zing, Joseph Day was called to the Chair,
and F. H. Sanford, Esq. acted as Secretary.
After the names of the delegates were en
rolled, and other preliminary matters at
tended to, a motion was presented, appoint
ing a committee of five, to suggest to the
Convention, suitable officers to preside over
its deliberations. This motion was oppos
’ od, and the name of Joseph Day, Esq. was
j proposed as President of the Convention.
1 ‘l'lie motion to appoint a committee was
then withdrawn; and at the request of tho
Chairman, the motion to appoint him Presi
dent was also withdrawn. Dr. Fort was
then nominated President, anil F. H. San
ford and D. P. Ellis, Esq’rs. appointed Sec
retaries.
The Convention now being fullv organ
-0.0
ized, the first proposition of importance pre
serited, was upon a resolution, calling for
the appontment of a Committee of 21, to re
port upon the Presidential question—nomi
nate a candidate, &c. This resolution was
■like a fire-brand thrown in the midst of our
Democratie friends. Up to the time of our
writing, no definite action has yet been bad
upon it. Its adoption was most warmly
opposed by several of the members of the
Body, and advocated by others. Among
its supporters ure Messrs. Cohen, McLaws,
and Sturgis. Among its opposers are
Messrs. O. H. Kenan, Howell Cobb, Ken
dall, Dunnegan and others. Mr. Dunne
gan then presented a substitute which is
still under consideration. Without taking
a direct vote, the Convention adjourned to 3
o’clock, P. M.
We know not what will be the action of
the Convention, in their choice of either a
Governor or President; but from what we
can judge by observation, the Calhoun par
ty have greatly the ascendency in it. We
may be mistaken, but we think the friends
of Mr. Van Buren decidedly in the minori
ty in this Body. The delegates number a
bout 200. We have no time to say more.
Escape of Convicts. —On the afternoon of
the 29th, just before the hour at which the
convicts are usually committed to their
cells, while tho door through the back wall
was open, and a portion of them employed
there at work, the alarm of fire was soun
ded by a few in the blacksmith shops con
tiguous.to draw off attention, when some half
a dozen gathered up hammers, axes, &c.,
and made tin. ir escape. They were joined
by several of those outside, and eleven in
all escaped. They were fired upon by the
guard, and one is supposed to have been
wounded. Five have been subsequently
retaken. In’ effecting this, in a contest be
tween some of Mr. William Sand ford’s ne
g.oes, who were ordered to aid in the mat
ter, a knife was drawn and resistance made
by one of them named George W.Crowder,
committed from Muscogee, When a “blow
was inflicted on him, as the Coroner’s in
quest returns, by one or more of Mr. S’s ne
groes, which has subsequently caused his
death. Crowder is said to have been of no
toriously bad character, and among the ring
leaders. Graham, lately committed for
j negro stealing from Wilkinson, another of
1 the worst, is said to have been among those
! retaken.— Milledgeville. Recorder.
i A Remarkable Fact. —We learn from tho
| N. Y. Journal of Commerce (anti tariff pa
per) that the prices of cotton goods are now
| 20 per cent cheaper in this country than in
! England ; and as a consequence of it, goods
j manufactured at Lowell, Massachusetts,
are shipped to Manchester, in England,
| where, after paying the British duty of ten
percent, they still make a fair profit. Does
not this fact demonstrate that the duty on
the English goods is not a tax upon the A
merican consumer ‘! “Ay, but (says the
free trade man) it proves that you can get
along without protective duties also.” So
it does, so far as that article is concerned,
now that the child has become a man ; but
does it prove that when it was a child it
did not need the aid of some friendly hand
to sustain its first feeble efforts to walk ?
Had our cotton manufactures not received
this support when they were in their infan
cy, they could never have reached a state
of maturity, and instead of now selling here
20 per cent below the English prices, we
should have been, cx necessitate, compelled
to pay the English prices for such goods—
-20 porct. higher now than the American ;
to which at least 20 per cent additional
might have been added for the absence of
American competition, enabling the foreign
monopolists to extort their own price.
What stronger proofean be adduced in
favoroftho utility of moderate protective
duties, even if cheapness to the consumer
were the only thing to be consulted ? Yet
prejudice and partizanship have blind eyes
and deaf ears.— Lynchburg Virginian.
The Enquirer and other Locofoco papers
have lately published Mr. Clay’s speech in
1811, against the re-charter of the U. S.
Bank, with deserved encomiums on its great
ability. Will they now, just for the sake
of giving both sides of the question, publish
Mr. Calhoun’s speeches in 1815 and 1816,
in favor of the Bank, together with his
powerful argument in 1834, in favor of an
elongation of its charter 12 years ? And,
if it isn’t asking too much at their hands,
we invite them to publish Mr. Calhoun’s
speech in favor of the bill setting aside the
Bank bonus to purposes of internal improve
ment by the general government, which Mr.
Madison vetoed—and his Report, while Se
cretary of War, recommending a great Na
tional, Road from Buffalo, in New-York, to
New-Oi leans, to an estimated cost of one
hundred millions of dollars! Wc think
their readers ought to know something of
Mr. Calhoun’s opinions on these subjects,
when he was bidding for the vote of Penn
sylvania—and perhaps his speech n favor
of the Protective Policy, in 1316, might not
be altogether an unfit companion-piece !

OUR SUPERIOR COURT.
1 lie Court has been occupied since Wed
nesday morning last, now just a week, in
the trial ot John Langdon Lewis, charged
under an indictment as accessory after the
fact with the offence of robbery, or, in plain
er English, with feloniously receiving and
concealing the bag of.money recently sto
len from the Western Insurance and Trust 1
Company ot tiiis city. There was great
difficulty experienced in getting a jury— j
we think as many as seven pannels, each i
0,1 ‘lB men, were exhausted, before the jury I
ol 12 could be made up. It was finally !
completed on Thursday at noon. Immedi
ately after diuuer tiie Attorney-General
presented the hill of indictment to the jury,
and proceeded to introduce evidence in sup
port ot tiie charge preferred. Nineteen
witnesses on the part of the State, aad five
on the part ot the accused, have been eall
-led to testify. The testimony closed on
Monday about 1>) oolock, and the argument
of counsel commenced about 3 o’clock.—
The case was opened on the side of the
prisoner by John Watson, Esq. ; on the
side of tho State by the Attorney-General,
Mr,. Gardner; Alex. McDougald, M. J.
Wellborn, Seaborn Jones and Walter T.
Colquitt, Esq’rs. followed in the order of
their names for the prisoner : James John
son, Hines Holt, J. C. Alford and Robert
Toombs, Esq’rs. in the same order on the
part of tho State. Some of these gentlemen
have concluded their remarks, before we
go to press. The case will hardly be sub
mitted to the jury before the time our mails
close. Much interest is felt for the result,
and the court house is crowded with spec
tators. The testimony has been of such a
character as to open up a wide field fir the
display of ingenuity and eloquence by the
counsel on both sides. There (s but one o
pinion as to its tendency on the part of the
people, but there are at least two opinions
as to the result of the trial. We have at
tended in person during the investigation,
and have iprillen a book of sixty pages fools
cap, with the testimony. What we shall do
with it remains to be told. At present, for
cause, we place it among the secret records
of the times. In a word, we are advised by
the counsel for the State to withhold it from
the public eye, until the termination of the
present and approaching trials.
PAINFUL OCCURRENCE.
During the examination of the witnesses
in the case of the State vs. Lewis, last Fri
day, the Court was thrown into great con
fusion by a rush of people towards the lob
by, accompanied by a noise and crying out
in the lobby adjoining the court-room.—
The confusion was soon ascertained to have
been occasioned by a most horrid suicide in
the lobby. A man named Dr. Smith, a
son-in-law of Mr. Russell, the proprietor of
the first stage-house east of the city, had
put an end to his existence. Smith, we
understand, had been arrested that morning
by Deputy Sheriff Howard, on a warrant
for stealing corn. Shortly after his arrest,
lie went to the drugstore of Ware & Pond,
with Mr. Howard, on pretence of buying
some medicine for a patient. Officer How
ard was prudent enough to inquire of the
druggists what it was that the prisoner ob
. tained. Being informed that it was poison,
(prussic acid,) he kept a close eve upon
him, and induced him to go to the court
house to get counsel, hoping to get the phial
’ from him. Although a strict watch was
kept by Officer Howard, shortly after get
ting into the lobby at the court-house the
unfortunate man drew tiie poison from his
pocket and attempted to swallow it. His
■ hand was caught by Howard, who imme
diately called for assistance ; but before a
nv could be had, Smith succeeded, in spite
of Howard’s exertions, in swallowing a
portion of the poison, and with the other
hand drew a knife from his pocket and cut
his throat. He survived but a f<?\v min
utes. Smith’s wife and friends were sent
for immediately, but of course did not ar
rive in time to see him before he was dead.
The scene when his wife (to whom he had
been married but a few months) canje up,
was truly heart-rending.— lbid.
Drowned. —A man named Simpler was
drowned in the river opposite the upper end
of this city, on Friday evening last, in an
attempt to escape from the officers of the
law, who were seeking to arrest him under
a warrant for a violation of the law against
retailing spirituous liquors without license,
in Alabama. The unfortunate man first
made an effort to get into a small boat and
cross the river. But the officers of the law
were so close upon his heels he had not
time to unhitch his boat from its mooring,
and therefore jumped in as was supposed
to swim the river. In the attempt he was
drowned.— lbid.
The Cincinnati Gazette, refering so a cu r
rent report that the Hon. John McLean of
Ohio, is to he brought out as a Whig candi
date for President, decidedly observes:
“Who are supposed projectors of this mys
terious plan, or what may be their views,
we cannot divine. But we do know, from
an authority which cannot be questioned,
that Judge McLean has no knowledge of
any such design, and that be will not sanc
tion any movement, come from what quar
ter it may, which would make him a can
didate for the Presidency in opposition to
Mr. Clay.”
Death of Noah Webster. —We regret to
learn the death of Noah Webster, L. L. D.
He died at his residence in New Haven, on
the evening of the 28th ult., in the 85th
year of his age.
OWe learn from Milledgeville that the
“Democratic” Convention have nominated
MARK A. COOPER, the Honorable, for
Governor, and recommend the Hon. JOHN
C. CALHOUN, as a candidate for the Pro.

“ Whig Promises — Why have they not
been fulfilled —An exchange paper very
justly remarks that when lie hears a Loco
foco taunt the Whigs with a failure to ful
fil their promises made in 1840, lie sets
him down as unscrupulously dishonest. —
Upon this remark, the Nashville Banner,
makes the fol lowing admirable comments :
‘l'lie unparalleled treachery by which
the Whigs have been thwarted in their fa
vorite public measures, and which has so
corruptly turned the whole power of the
Federal Executive Government to tiie ad
vantage of Locofocoism, is so palpable, so
gross, so wholly undisguised, that if is al
most impossible to come to any conclusion.
John Tyler, chosen arid confided in as a :
Whig, and whose apparent sympathy and ;
friendship for Mr. Clay, were such as to
cause him to shed tears for his defeat at
Harrisburg, is now a professed “ Democrat
ic President pursuing the Whig party
with the bitterest hostility, profusely stut
tering office and emolument among the “de
mocracy,” and openly claiming ‘•‘■always
to have been a Democrat /” It is known to
such Locofocos as stoop to employ this
charge, that the Whigs had been in power
but a single month, when John Tyler came
into office, and commenced at once the trai
torious work of alliance with their oppo
nents, bv which their plans have been so
signally defeated. It is known that through
this corrupt alliance between Tyler and the
“Democracy,” it has been rendered impos
sible for the Whigs to fulfil the promises
with which they are now so shamelessly
taunted. It is known that a National bank,
the great financial measure of the Whigs,
through which they expected to contribute
essentially to the relief of the country, was
defeated by this newly made “ Democratic
President.” It is known that by a rapid
succession of Presidential Vetoes all of
which were rapturously cheered and ap
plauded by the •“ Democracy,” the Whig
plans and measures have been thwarted, in
spite of their most faithful efforts to the con
trary. It is known that the “ democracy”
have defended, and sustained the exercise
of “ this one man power” against the will
of the Representatives of the people—that
they have defended and applauded John
Tvler in all his traitorous conduct—and
that he in turn has profusely bestowed his
patronage on the “democracy,” to whom,
through all the accredited organs of his ad
ministration, his allegiance lias been open
ly and boldly declared ; yet, with these
facts so notorious and so fresh in their mem
ories, there are those who profess to hold
the Whigs responsible for the results of this
traitorous conduct; and it is such that our
cotemporary aptly says he regards as un
scrupulously dishonest.
It would seem by the following para
graph in the Trenton State Gazette, that
Tylerism is becoming plethoric in that
town. It is a disease, however, which need
give them little alarm—people afflicted in
that way very soon get over it:
“ The truth is there, are too many Tyler
men. There are at least a dozen in this
town, and only one office for them all. It
is high time for them to split. Half a doz
en at least must be pitched over board. As
soon as one of them gets an office, the others
fall upon him and denounce him as an en
emy of the President at heart. If he should
be turned out, they would in three weeks
attack his successor in the same way. Be
ing in office is with them proof positive of
opposition to the President.”
Honesty towards Uncle Sam. —The Wal
do (Me.) Signal relates an anecdote of the
Hon. Edward Kavanagh, at present Ac
ting Governor of Maine, which is “impor
tant if true,” and is a remarkable instance
of honesty in a politician. The story is as
follows: While a Member of Congress,
some of his hangers-on used to call on him
to frank letters for them. This his Excel
lency did with pleasure, and always kept
an exact account of the amount of postage
which ought to have been paid to the Gov
ernment, and at the close of every quarter
caused te be deposited in the Post Office
Department the precise amount he had
franked out of the Department.
Perpetual Motion. —Tiie nearest ap
proach which man can make to the perpet
ual motion of the planets, is in our opinion,
tho construction of a machine which when
set iti motion, will continue until the mate
rials of which it is constructed wear out—
and a pieceof machinery is now being made
in this city, with confident expectations of
success. It is a self-winding clock, and
from the ingenuity and skill of the artist,
(Mr. Henry Jatho) we shall not be surprised
at his accomplishing the object. He has
already constructed a clock, with only
three wheels, which not only keeps excel
lent time, but exhibits the days of the month
and week in addition to the hours and se
conds—and it is wound up without the
slightest loss of time. It is a beautiful
time-piece, and is not so liable to get out
of order as ordinary clocks.— Balt Tat.

these complaints.
in Dyspepsia and Liter Complain', they stand
unrivalled. Many have been cured in a few
weeks, after having suffered under the dreadful
complaint for years.
In Habitual Costiveness, they are decidedly
superior to any Vegetable Pill ever brought be
fore the public ; and one 25 cent box will estab
lish their surprising virtues, and place them be
yond the reach of doubt in the estimation of eve
