iNEWt ANP OA2ETTE. | WASHINGTON, GA. THURSDAY, JULY 6, 184a. FOR GOVERNOR, ■GEORGE W. CRAWFORD. ■ FOR PRESIDENT, I uuaHmr 05” Mr Crawford has signified his inten- I tion of accepting the nomination of the Whig I Convention; we therefore place his name at I the head of our columns as our candidate [for Governor. Mr. Stephens has n*>t yet accepted the nomination to Congress, probably for the very sufficient reason that there is as yet no vacancy. Mr. Cooper has not resigned his seat in Congress or accepted the nomination of the Democratic Convention—indeed he seems to treat that dignified body with silent contempt. Until he resigns, there can, of course, be no candidate to fill his place.— There is considerable doubt, which is every day increased by his long delay in manifes ting his intentions, as to whether Mr. Cooper will accept the nomination. The divisions’ in the Democratic party, and the exceeding ly popular character of the candidate op posed to him in the contest for the guberna torial chair admonish him that the chances for his success are but slender. Possibly the valiant Major will conclude that he had better hold on to what he has got, than, like JEsop’s dog, lose all by grasping at too much. He probably recollects the proverb ‘a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.’ The Fourth of July. Foreign travellers among us remark that we appear to be a very melancholy people, that our rejoiccng seems forced, that our festivals have more the semblance of fune rals than feasts, and that our only apparent amusements are politics and tobacco-chew iug. There is some truth in the remark, we have too few public hollidays, and we are not sure that their unfrequcncy pro motes either the prosperity, happiness, mor ality or health of our people. Not the pros perity for the man of business finds relaxa tion necessary and returns with redoubled vigor to his ordinary avocations, after inno cent and temperate recreation —not the hap piness, for happiness is incompatible with solitude and selfishness—not the morality, for the high spirits of youth, restrained by our present cold and unsocial mode of life, seek the vein‘they would otherwise find in social amusement, in secret and debasing indulgence or low debauchery'—not the health, for all physicians will tell us that cheerfulness and gay company are great promoters of health. It is fortunate then that we have one day when every American considers i; his duty to be mirthful, and although the mirth some times appears as dolorous as a grin on a Death’s head, yet it is tolerable for want of better. Long may the birth day of our na- Vtion continue to he celebrated, it is theon ay of the year when, throughout our “/oad country', party feeling, too apt to pro- Itce unfriendliness, and sectional clifi’eren rps are forgotten; when the incessant chase Titer ‘the Almighty Dollar’ partially inter- Triits. and when joy is not considered akin to crime. Our citizens did up the patriotic in pretty good style last Tuesday; we had the usual procession, the usual music fucins and pow der doins. The Declaration of Indepetv dence was read, with good emphasis and discretion, by H. F., Colley Esq. and an ex cellent oration was delivered by L. J. Gar trell Esq. Then we had an old fashioned barbecue dinnerSftith speechifications, &c.; we shall not praise the barbecue, as it is not customary with editors to puff any thing they don’t get gratis. In the evening a party was given, at which most of the ladies of the town were present, and, we are sorry to say, a great many troublesome children who had better have been kept at home. We don’t believe there is a town in Georgia that can parade a more brilliant array of beauty than ours, and when it is all collec ted in one dazzling constellation, a bachel or’s heart which don’t thaw under its influ ence must be frozen very hard indeed, it al most tempted us to the indiscretion of trying matrimony; we should be a ‘gone coon’ if we could persuade any one of the dozen fair ” ones we fell in love with on the evening of the 4th., to have us. Heigh-ho! well, we suppose “whatever is, is right” but we are getting very tired of this state of single wretchedness! (N. B. The Ladies were too tender-hearted to take an editor’s mon ey—hence this laudation.) 05” Did you borrow this paper like a sneak, or pay for it like an honest man ? Nullification. It seems that our opponents in their de sire to assimilate themselves as much as possible to Mr. Calhoun and to tboir three file leaders in this State, are about to in scribe Nullification on their banners. This we have thought probable as they bad al ready adopted the imposing motto of Stale Rights —and their guardians, Cooper, Col quitt and Black, boast that they are still unchanged, and being so, are still the most rabid of Nullifiers as they were before they deserted us, when they surpassed even the State Rights party of Georgia in their vio lent advocacy of disunion, being, what the State Rights party were not, Nullifiers of the South Carolina stamp. The old Union party of course must become Nullifiers as their new leaders will not become Union men—“ the mountain won’t go to Mahomet, so Mahomet must go to the mountain.” They are about to try their skill in Nul lification upon the law of Congress which prescribes that its members shall be elected by districts. Their press in this State has already began boldly to question its con stitutionality, and arc endeavoring to excite the prejudices of the people by their sophis try and misrepresentations, and they are raising the cry of force, dictation, State Rights, &c. &c. We suppose that the true cause of their new-born zeal is that they find that their members of Congress, ille gally elected last year by the general tick et, are likely to be excluded from their seats, and they have no desire to trust the people in another election. The superiori ty of the district system in every respect over any other method of election, seems not to he denigd, its constitutionality, only, is questioned, and it is to bo nullified to suit the case of the Democrats of Georgia. It appears to us that they* are precluded from making this issue by the fact that with a large majority of their party in the Legis- | lature last winter, they passed an act in conformity with the law of Congress, dis tricting the State, which was only prevent ed from going into ofTect by the veto of the Governor, thus in the strongest manner ac knowledging the constitutionality of the plan. If in reality they doubted its consti tutionality, then it seems was the time to make the opposition, not after they had at tempted to comply, and been defeated in the attempt by Governor McDonald. The Georgia Loco-focos differ very wide ly in opinion from their nullifying brethren in South Carolina and other States. They, being strict sticklers fin- the integrity of the Constitution, con. : ■ district system so evidently the only Cousin::, ,ia! mode that thay contend, that even their delegates to the Democrat!.’ National Convention shall he elected by it. They even differ among themselves in this Stale, lor we remember that t: o most able arguments that we saw in favor of the Constitutionality of the ap po:!ionment law appeared in two c.l the De mocratic papers of Giorgia, some months since. The Democrats must, it wouM seem, in evitably bring themselves into a dilemma j by denying tile Constitutional iiy of the Dis trict system. Most of the States have in accordance with the law of Congress, dis tricted their territory and elected their Rep resentatives under the new apportionment. A large majority of those lately elected are Democrats. If for the sake of letting in the little squad from Georgia, the law is de clared unconstitutional, the Democratic members of Congress recently elected in other States must go out, being illegally chosen, and the elections must be referred to the people. It is useless to argue that by the consent of those States to the Appor tionment Law it has become Constitution al, for no concurrence of theirs can render that law constitutional which is in itself not so. That is not Nullification doctrine, and if the Democrats of Georgia reason in this way they have yet to learn the first princi ple of their new creed. Some of the Democratic press seem dis posed to make an issue with the Whigs on tho District question. Let them do so—we i are ready to go before the people upon that ! issue—we shall not shrink from the discus sion. Let it be understood then, that the Whig party of Georgia are advocates ofthe District system, and are in favor of its a doption in this State, and tha£ tiie Democrat ic party of Georgia are opposed to it. The Macon Telegraph having attacked Mr. Crawford on account of his profession of a lawyer, and also because he once fought a duel, the Messenger retorts on its neighbor as follows: “Mark A. Cooper himself, is a lawyer, and for years confined himself to a long and hacknied course of practice, until he found out, it was a more profitable business to loan his money out, to those whose ne cessities compelled them to give a usurious interest. Which school is best adapted to the qualification of a sound Statesman, the voters of Georgia can judge for themselves. If the profession of law be a disqualifica tion, the State of Georgia has been signally unfortunate in selecting her Governors. If George W. Crawford be objectionable be cause he is a lawyer, and has only served his country in a territorial Legislature, and therefore disqualified for the office of Gov ernor, how comes it, that the same objec tions were not interposed when William Schley and Charles J. McDonald were candidates before tho people ?—They cer tainly were practising lawyers up to the period of their election, and in tho field of legislation, occupied no higher sphere than Mr. Crawford. Lumpkin was also a law yer, so was Gilmer, and Forsyth. If being a mere Lawyer, is a valid objection, most ofthe Ex-Governors of our opponents would never have reached tho exalted stations to which they where elevated b.y a beguiled and deceived constituency. Another objection against Mr. Crawford, has been raked up from the buried recol lections of ibe past, which we will in chari ty pass over. To say the least of it—lt is a matter altogether personal and extrinsic to tho issue, and the allusion to it is in wretched bad taste. Tho idol of Democra cy Gen. Jackson, the bead of the Telegraph Party in the State, Gen. John Clark, whom all acknowledge to have been been a good and virtuous man, and the present incum bent ofthe Gubernatorial Chair, have each in different degrees sanctioned a custom which all must deplore the necessity of circumstances should ever force a good man to engage in. Our Senator, the Hon. W. T. Colquitt is retailing his old anecdotes to the people of Mobile. The Whigs of Alabama do not ‘seem to take very kindly to him if wo may judge from the subjoined account of bis do ings and sayings from the Mobile Adverti ser. Daniel Chandler Esq. whose name is mentioned in connection with Colquitt’s, is Welland favorably known in this section of Georgia, and it would sound still more odd to the Whigs of this, his old “stain j !ng ground.” than it did to the Editor if the Ad vertiser, to hear his “familiar Whig voice in a Locofoco meeting. “Walter T. Colquitt of Georgia.— This gentleman, U. S. Senator elect from Georgia, honored “the democracy” of this city with a visit, a few davs since. A mee ting of the “harmonious,” was to be held at the Corinthian on Monday evening, and it was given out during the day that Judge Colquitt would address the meeting. Im pelled by curiosity to hear the somewhat notorious st ranger, a large crowd of Whigs, as well as Locos, were in attendance at the appointed hour, ourselfamong the number. After a couple of speeches from the Iqpal democracy, the distinguished Georgian was formally introduced to the meeting by Daniel Chandler, Esq., who passed an elo quent & high-wrought encomium upon the character and services ofhisGeorgia friend, representing him as one who “through weal j and through woe had been, emphatically, the man of the people.” (We must con fess it sounded rather odd to hear tho fa-j miliar Whig voice of Daniel Chandler at a Locofoco meeting!) Judge Colquitt then rose and addressed the meeting wc sujqiose, for nearly an hour. The topic on which ho dwelt at the greatest lenght, was the de mocracy of one Colquitt, who, according to his account, had been the most consistent democrat in the nation. He insisted that there were not now, nor ever had been, but two parties in the country, one in favor of a strong government, after the fashion of the European monarchies, and the other of a free republican government. The first were Federalists, who thought common people should not be allowed any participa tion in government; and the other Demo crats, who went in for the common people. Ke showed very satisfactorily to himself, we suppose, that the Whigs of the present y were ofthe former party, and had dis . aided the name of federalist, from its un popularity, and assumed the once sacred .nme of Whig, for the sake of popularity, fie was sorely grieved that that glorious name should be thus desecrated, but did not tell his audience that his friend John C. Calhoun, in 1534, claimed the name as pe culiarly appropriate for the party opposed to the usurpations ofGen. Jackson, and that be, the said Colquitt, had “fought, bled and died,” under the same Whig banner ! He made himself extremely merry at the present condition of the Whig party, and the way they had been taken in by John Tyler. He repeated the common slang of the democracy about the violation of Whig pledges—told how he had fought the battles of democracy in Georgia, what lie told his competitors on the stump, all of which had been verified, and what they told him in reply—said he had been called a \ renegade Tor his devotion to democracy, but j he cared not for that, as be went for princi ple—that a party governed by principles, as was the Democratic party, could never be sundered—that a party without princi ple, like the Whig party, was a faction, &c. He ridiculed Log Cabins, Hard ci der, Coon Skins, &c., and hoped the peo ple would never again be deluded and en ticed from their principles by such humbug gery. (This was a very unkind cut at his friend Chandler, who it will he remember ed, was the high priest who officiated at the dedication of the Log Cabin in this City, and who had the honor of making the firs’ speech in that “sacred temple oflibertv.”— But, we suppose, Mr. Colquitt did not know this fact.) He concluded if such scenes were enacted again, he should consider the government a case. He here related an anecdote in illustration of his feelings, of “a Catholic and his wife, at the time of the falling of the stars,” that a regard for de cency and the taste of our readers, forbids us to put on paper. It produced a great laugh of course, though the more decent of the party dropped their heads. He was much opposed to banks, and con sidered them contrivances by which men who were too lazy to work, might make a living out ofthe honest, hard-working men ofthe oountry. There was always some thing wrong, lie said, when one set of men could live without work, dress fine, set up over the wine bottle till midnight and sleep next day till noon, while the working man, who rose early and toiled late, was kept poor. This was all the effect of the banks. ‘(Col. Ilallett, President ofthe Paul: of Mo bile, \Hn>> in ihc chair'.) The salvation of tho country depended on the “hard fisted Democracy.” The merchants, he suid, knew little about politics, and cared less ; their patriotism was all to be found in their ledger, and they cared for little else than making profits by trade. He entreated the Democracy to bo united—they were per fectly so in Georgia—they had recently nominated Mr. Calhoun because they ail knew he was the strongest man, not that fhey had any objection to Mr.,Van Buren, oh no ! hut simpiy because they knew that Mr. Van Buren could never get Georgia ! If he were nominated the Whigs would carry tho State. But if Mr. Van Buren should be the man selected hv the party, he should do his best for him—should fight manfully, and if democracy should fall in the contest, as he expected it would, “Col quitt would he found buried beneath its ru ins !” He concluded by repeating his de j votion to Democracy. Even in childhood, his good father had instilled into his youth ful mind the principles of Democracy, and he repeated a very pretty speech which he : was going to make to his children when on hi# dying hod ! The subject was becoming too “solemncholy,” and we left! The speech was one that would have done very well, perhaps, in the “back woods of Georgia,” or any where else where the j people “live off tho roacf and don’t take the jfapers,” hut before an intelligent audience, where the people are always “posted up,” Such sort of slang, and such miserable and disgusting anecdotes, are in bad taste, and decidedl y out of place. It was a poor spe cimen of the dignity of an American Sen ator.” From the Augusta Chronicle. ACCEPTANCE OF GEORGE W. , CRAWFORD. It is a source of no ordinary gratification to us, to announce to our readers and the voters of Georgia, that George W. Craw ford, Esq., has signified to the Committee bis acceptance of the nomination of the Whig Convention, as a candidate for Gov ernin'. Wc therefore unfurl our flag to the j breeze, with the names of George W. Crawford and Alexander 11. Stephens,- inscribed upon its folds, and enter the can vass with a hearty good will. In such a contest, with such standard bearers—men distinguished alike for their talents, sterl ing integrity, and high moral worth, we have no cause to fear the result, before an intelligent constituency, moved to united and determined action by a long course of misrule, and the experiments of a weak and imbecile administration, i Were the people of Georgia ignorant of the fame of Messrs. Crawford and Stephens, we might, with great propriety, trespass up on the indulgence ofthe reader with a brief review of their past career in the service of the State, but they have served too long and faithfully in the Legislature of their native State, and their reputations as men combining a high order of talents, with the most elevated patriotism, are too familiar to evert Georgian to render such a course necessary or proper on this occasion, and we forbear to say more than to urge upon the Whigs the necessity and importance of their zealous support. TIIE REVERTED LANDS. We learn that the Governor will not car ry into immediate execution that part ofthe act of the last Legislature, which authoriz ed the sale of all land which reverted to the State on tho first instant, by the grants not being taken out. It is the intention of the Governor, we learn, to await the action of the next Legislature. This course has been adopted in consequence of the imper fection of the law—as it appears, by read ing one or two sections of it, that the Legis- ! lature intended to except the lands of or phans, for the present, from its operation, whereas other sections, and tho last, have not that bearing. Georgia Journal. JUDICIOUS REMARKS. The Columbus (Ga.) Argus in Commen ting upon tho late extraordinary verdict of the Jury acquitting John L. Lewis, makes the following very just remarks, which should be read by every lover of order: “But it is our opinion that the honest and intelligent portion of the community are much more culpable for the escape of criminals than any body else. Many of them express opinions to avoidserving upon the jury, and scarcely one of them who does not escape if he can—they run and hide from the Sheriff when they see him coming to summon talesmen. If such men will not serve upon juries for the trial of criminal cases, if they who have so much interest in the pure administration of the criminal justice ofthe country are not wil ling to bear their share of the labor, if they are determined by disqualifying themselves fron serving, or by evading the service, to leave nobody to make juries out of but such as have but little interest, in the matter, and those who have no character or principle ; .nothing more or less can be expected than that those who have money and friends and influence will escape. Then let the refor mation commence at the cause of the evil, it never aids in the conviction of felons, for men to express opinions as to the guilt or innocence of the accused, on the contrary when suspicion has fallen upon a man, it is most generally unjust either to him or to the country, to express any opinion as to his guilt or his innocence, until he has had his trial.” The chairman (Mr. Buckingham,) at the Faneuil Hall dinner on Saturday, said that the ox which furnished the best beef for the dinner, was slaughtered last Tuesday. His bones were sent to Norwich—they were manufactured into buttons, and here they are, said he, as he pulled them out of his pocket : I will give you, therefore, he con tinued “Agriculture, Manufactures, and Com nfieroe,” (Cheers.) NEW FINANCIAL SCHEME. A correspondent in Washington, whose j occasional letter* have given hints of com ing events, or hints which seemed to pre vent certain contemplated acts, writes to ns ; as follows: Phil. U. S. Guz. “ Mr. Spencer has a grand scheme of ft ! nance and circulation on foot, to issue ten ! millions of Treasury notes, all of SSO, all j redeemable at different hanks in the large | cities, which are to bo made deposit banks, j The plan is fixed and settled, ano’ is intend, j od as a movement against a United States I Bank by giving a circulation to the country jin the form of thoir notes. Great impor tanee is attached to it by the Cabinet, as a j political move, and it will probably be the nucleus on which to build a great political machine, embracing.discounts and exchan ges, Ac. THE GOVERNMENT. Never since the organization ofthe Go vernment, says the Philadelphia U. S. Ga ■ zette, has the administration presented such j a remarkable aspect as it docs at present. General Harrison died, and Mr. Tyler left the duties of Vice-President to become the acting President. Mr. Southard, who” succeeded Mr. Tyler j in his ex-officio duties in the Senate, died, j and Mr. Mangum was elected to act in his i place. Mr. Webster resigned, and Mr. Legarc was appointed in his place acting Secreta ry of State. Mr. Legarc died, and, it is said, Mr. Up shur is to he in bis place, acting Secretary of State. The death of Mr. Legare leaves entirely vacant the office of Attorney. General. The Presidency, the Vice Presidency, (qr?) and the Department of State, have acting incumbents, and the Attorney Gen eralship is entirely vacant. Rule or Ruin !—When Mr. Calhoun de serted his “late allies” in 1837, and took his seat on the Treasury Bench, Senator King, of Georgia, declared that, if he ever became fully identified with the Locofoco party, he would “ rule or ruin it.” The prophecy is in a fair way of verification. Killed by a Corn Doctor. —The New Ha ven Herald under its obituary head, notices the death of Mr. Justus Williams, a res pectable citizen of Essex, (Deep River,) and an exemplary and worthy man, by lock jaw, occasioned by the applications of a Corn Doctor. The Seven Millions Loan. —We learn from the Washington Globe, that the whole loan for seven millions of U. S. 5 percent, stock, advertised by the Secretary of the Treasury, has been taken by Messrs. John Ward & Cos., of New-York, at one hundred and one dollars and ono cent for every SIOO of the stock. Advantage of Advertising. —The New - Morning Post says, “ A wealthy mer chant of this city, who has given more ud vertising to the press than any other mer chant here once told the editor of this pa per, that iie commenced business with the determination to expend in advertising all his profits, for the first two years, but that he soon found it impossible to do so ; the faster he paid it out the more he received ; and could he have monopolized all the ad vertising colurnns of all tire papers in the city, he would have been repaid doubly.
