Cox, in this county, was struck by lightning about 3 o’clock last Sunday morning. Mr. Cox, who was in bed, on recovering from the stunning effect of the shock, found his wife, Mrs. Nancy E. Cox, dead by his side, and all attempts to resuscitate her were found ineffectual.— Theirchild who was in the same bed, was uninjured. The number of accidents from lightning this summer have been unprecedented, and as the season of danger is not yet past, it may be well to remind our readers, that persons are frequently recovered, who are thought dead from lightning, by dashing upon them large quantities of cold water. Sufficient presence of mind in the bye standers to make immediate application of this remedy may save some valuable lives. 03” The communication of “ a Demo crat this week requires not n ‘ tn an swer, as to the point discussed in out last beyond what we said then ; to that article we refer our readers. It will be seenthat‘-a Democrat” gives notning in addition to his °\v:mpted explanation last week. We are accustomed to consider the price for which money can be obtained on good security, and the rate of interest upon igas a test of its value,and have never, till now, heard that it was to be judged of by the price of corn and cotton, articles whose price in a great measure depends upon the quantity suppli ed by the farmers and upon the demand.— Money can be obtained in the money mar kets now at £ the rate of interest it could 18 months since—we say therefore it is cheaper. “A Democrat” says no, it is dear er, because corn and cotton won’t bring so much? We are at issue—who will, de cide. “A Democrat” need not have taken so much trouble to prove it takes as much or more of the farmer’s corn or cotton to pur chase,his necessaries now than it did some time since. We admit the fact, and say that although goods have diminished in price “Corn and Cotton” have decreased in value still more. “A Democrat” can’t see any difference between a man’s leg and his breeches.— We can—so there we areal issue again.— “In the price of goods I denied there was any decrease,” says a democrat this week. “ I admit that Salt, Iron, Bagging &c., will cost less money now than they did a few years ago” said “a Democrat’ last week. If “a democrat” has not heard of any new factories being built or old ones put in ope ration, it is because he has. not read the newspapers. In all this argument we wish it to be borne in mind that we have never ascribed the fall of prices wholly to the tariff; according to the Democratic theory, when a duty is laid upon an article its price in creases to the amount of that duty, no mat ter what corn and cotton are worth. Now we find goods cheaper under the Tariff of 1842 than just before when we had a! cost free trade—of this stubborn and undeniable fact we ask an explanation. According to ♦*^ieDemocrats a farmers necessaries should cost more money, they cost less; there is the fact, and one fact is worth ali the theories that were ever crowded into the brain of an abstractionist. In “A Democrat’s” view of a Tariff, be mostly argrees with us. We thick that dis crimination should be used in favor of arti cles used by the poor man, but we go a lit tle farther than “a Democrat” we think that discrimination should be also used to pro tect the poor man’s labor against the effect of foreign competition, and we are at loss to perceive how the last species of discrimina tion violates the Constitution any more than the first—we know of no clause in that in strument which either of them violates.— We are as equally opposed as “aDemocrat” to laying duties for the protection of the manufacturer at the expense of the agricul turai interest. It is anti-Republican to fos ter one interest to the injuy of others, but it -s a villainous Government, not worth pre serving, which will not protect, as far as possible, all the interests, of its citizens a gainst aliens. “A Democrat” asks for the sentiments ofthe Whigs in relation to a pro tective tariff. Here they are—in favor of a tariff for revenue, with incidental protec tion to home industry, opposed to one whose prime object is protection. Part of our doc trine is embodied in the following extract: “To support our General Government, duties upon imports are properly regarded as the most equitable, aud the least bur thensome mode by which taxes ma jr be im posed. It is indirect taxation, and if judi ciously lpid, falls with equal force on all classesofthe community. And we may add, that a Tariff thus constituted, necessa rily affords incidental protection to the great manufacturing interests of the coun try. To such a Tariff we have no objec tion, and have an abiding confidence, if the South is but true to herself, that the Tariff will be so adjusted as to produce a revenue necessary for an economical administration of the government, and at the same time by its permanency, give the only protection which can Constitutionally be given to the manufacturers of the North and West.” We object however, to permanency in any tariff. We think it ought to be grad uated to suit the circumstances of the gov ernment, the wants of the Treasury &c.— When the Government wants little money the rate cf duties should be low, and vice versa —not levy the same duty of 20 per cent, as the democrats propose—whether the government wants much or little. We are not aware that the “Northern Whigs” differ in the least from those ofthe South—both are in favor of a tariff for re venue and think such an one would afford sufficient protection to domestic manufac tures. The Democrats, who seem to be better acquainted with our sentiments than we are ourselves, and even arrogate to themselves (in saying that our principles differ from our professions,) the attribute of the Deity, and profess to know our hearts, can inform us if there is any difference in the sentiments of the two wings of ourarmy. “ They, (the Whigs) are trying to convince us that a high tariff is a good thing for the South,” we are trying to convince you of no such tiling—we think a tariff necessary, (so do you) and we think it ought to be used to protect domestic industry so far as consis tent with revenue ; ifit was a had thing for the South, it would be for our interest to op pose it as well as yours, the Democrats are not every body as they seem to think themselves—“that it is an advantage to the Southern Planter to protect the Northern Manufactures” so we believe it is—“and the necessary consequence of taxing goods is to make them cheaper,” we never said any such thing, we paraded the facts, you drew the inferences. “Do you deny you ever advocated protection ”? No. “The Chronicle and Sentinel in issuing tiie last edition of Whig principles is entirely silent on the subject.” Brother Jones “ paddles his own canoe” we paddle ours—he don’t follow us, and we don’t follow him—we fight side by side in the same ranks—and though we have never seen any new edition of Whig principles which he has put forth, vet he is so true and faithful a Whig we endorse any thing he says unseen. “ Last Edition” !! we have never known the need of any new edition of Whig principles—the fundamental Whig principles are the same “yesterday, to-day, and forever” they are resistance to oppression fraud and wrong— to corruption and rascality in high places— a preference for our country and our own countrymen to all others—enmity to usur pation and arbitrary use of power by pub lic servants—the supremacy of the laws and freedom ofopinion—such principles, a mong the honest and patriotic, will always find supporters, and (alas that we should have it to say) they will always find oppo nents. - Our opponents ought frequently to have a “Last Edition” of their creed, a party who find twelve months too long to stick to the same principles—or rather who, as their great leader said, are “ without principles and without policy,” who vary their doc trines in almost every State in the Union— ’ who are for a National Bank in the West, and opposed to it in the South—who are for the District System on the other side of the Savannah, opposed to it on this—who favor a protective tariff in Louisiana, Penn sylvania, New England, and other States, denounce it in Virginia, Georgia and New York, —who are for Calhoun, here—Van Buren there, Johnson and Cass yonder, and foi Tyler while he gives them plunder—a mixed, piebald, party-colored motley mosaic ; “curiously indented and whimsically dovetailed”— they to insinu ate the Whigs deal doubly or conceal their principles, and that our bold and gal lant champion is fighting the battle dishon orably ! “ A Democrat’s” language is in some parts discourteous, and we have replied to it in the same tone. We cannot permit our columns to become the vehicle of abuse of our party. Though we are perfectly wil ling still to give publicity to communica tions written with civility, (engaging our self to reply to them with the same courtesy) we will not again publish any thing which imputes disiionor or falsely accuses us of supporting any body in “an attempt to plun der the South.” ■lank Democrats. We are convinced that there are a great many of the most reflecting and unprejudi ced of the Democrats who are in favor of a National Bank. Most of them were, we believe, with the Nullification party, a gainst the former Bank of the United States, but they are, with us, now convinced of the utility of a similar institution, and believe that our legislators, taught by experience, can easily avoid the faults of the old Bank in the construction of anew one. They therefore agree with us on this, the most important question which now divides the parties. We say most important, for we consider of little importance the discussion of the tariff, direct taxation, or any inodes by which the Government can get money, if no means are provided by which to keep it safe from the grasp of Sub-Treasury thieves. How are such Democrats going to vote at the approaching election ? Will they vote for those who are in deadly opposition to their favorite measure—who wish to con tinue the same series of ruinous financial measures which have disgraced the Gov ernment for the last ten years—who are still in favor of the odious Sub-Treasury, condemned so signally in IS4O, by which our people have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars, while by a Bank they have never lost one cent, notwithstanding the false hoods of Demagogues about its robbery of widows and orphans —will they vote for those from whom there is nothing to hope, or will they support those pledged to use their influence to bring back the Govern ment to the good old track in which it was j guided by Washington and Madison ? This Election may have an important j bearing on this question. The votesof our i Congressmen may determine whether we are to have a Bank,or be longer cursed with experiments. So well convinced were the Bank Democrats of Tennessee of the im portance of their elections, that they com pelled tlieir candidates to pledge themselves to vote for a National Bank. There is no i time to do that here, and we doubt whether | the Democratic candidates would give the i pledge, as they are real Simon Pure j Nullifiers, an obstinate race, and are already committed against a Bank. The Governor’s election is of great importance, for that, as well as every other, even to that of a single county member, has an impor tant influence, direct or indirect upon the decision of National questions. We call, therefore, upon those Democrats who favor a Bank, to cast aside the trammels of par ty, to support that policy which is most to their own interest, and to vote for those who advocate an institution which every candid man confesses is necessary to the welfare of the country. 03” The Editor of that neat, sprightly, and excellent little paper the “ Sanders ville Telescope,” thinks we are behind the age and ought to be killed for puffing North ern periodicals. Being a merciful man, he will, upon reflection, become convinced that he has pronounced too severe a judg ment upon us for so slight an offence. We do only as other Editors do, and we differ from some of them, in that we puff only those whom we think deserve it—acting upon this rule we are perfectly willing to puff the “ Sandersville Telescope” when ever a puff may be of any use to it. The Northern publishers “come it most too strong” on us occasionally. For in stance, one of them sent us an advertise ment the other day through the Post-Office on which 25 cents postage was charged, we “ smelt a mice” and refused it. Another, a chap named Sears, quite modestly re quested us to insert a very long advertise ment of some compilation from old Penny Magazines and Encyclopedias, for three or four months. The advertisement at our usual rates would be worth about 8100 — and we were promised in payment a copy of his picture book ! This is imposing on good nafure, and “cutting it most too fat.” Mr. Sears may go to Ballyhack 03” Anew paper has lately been estab lished in La Grange, Troup county, called (he “La Grange Herald.” It is Whig’to the core, and will be ably and energetical ly edited by Dr. F.

The Tariff. — There is scarcely a cotton factory in New Eng land that is not in full operation, and some of them, to fulfil orders for export, are run ning night and day with two distinct sets of operatives. Baltimore American. 03” A beautiful fight is now going on be tween the Calhoun and Van Buren divisions lof the Locofoco party in New York. The j Whigs, of course, are not particularly in | teresled in the contest only that they are likely to get their due when ‘rogues’ (as Calhoun called his present party) fall out. The N. Y. Evening Post, Van’s organ, sets the Calhounites at defiance and dares them ‘to do their worst’; the Calhounites retort on Van Buren with such language as the fol lowing, in an address to the people—it is severe, but every word true: “No action of his (Mr. Van Buren’s) life enables you to guess what manner of man he is; you may judge in what circumstan ces he was placed, what objects he had in view, but-you refer it all to the externals, and ofthe internal mind you know nothing. Search in your minds for all you know a bout him, and you shall findyou know what offices he has held; and that you do not very well know how he came to be selected for them. He has never dealt with you direct ly, but always at one remove, always, as it were, at second hand. He has not stood out, a man of free speech and action,boldly, like Mr. Calhoun, before the people, but he has practised apart with their servants. By those the people trusted he has been trusted, but not by them. He is a man of calcula tion and one who makes no mistakes, aud his strength lies in his knowledge of every pivot and pinion of the political system. * * But he has no personal popularity, he never had any ; and the deliberate approbation, half negative, that we bestow on his public caieer, is a thing as different from the ge nial feelings of Friendship with which men speak of Jackson or Calhoun, as a certifi cate of good character is different from a cordial embrace.” “If we can sell goods, at this time, cheaper than the imported article was sold lor, during the disastrous times of 1840, what do we want of a protective tariff on those articles'!” The N. Y.* Tribune, in answer to this question propounded by one of its subscri bers, says; Where can “A Subscriber’s” eyes have been for these last two years ? At least, ninety-nine times we iiave knocked over the cob-house he has set up, yet here it is again as solemn and plausible as though it were built of iron. Never mind: an Editor is made to work like a mill-horse; so here goes the hundredth lick at it. The fundamental, fatal error of our cor respondent is the quiet assumption that if we can make an article as cheap as any other people, then we nre sheilded by that cheapness from all Foreign competition.— But facts utterly contradict this. Nobody doubts, for instance, that British Manufac turesare as cheap as those of this country, and yet considerable qu thus ot Aineri can Manufactures have gone into Canada this season, although they are charged a considerable duty, and British goods ate not. We shall soon see the Canadian Tariff al tered to shut out American Manufactures. Let us illustrate this truth again: The cost of making hats of a given quality is a about the same in England as here, and the price ndt materially different. Now take oft’our own duties, letting those of England remain, and all experience shows that Brit ish hats would coine here, and that when ever one of those gluts ordepressions which periodically occur in each country should take place in England, immense quantities ofßritish Hats would be sentover here, and sold ten, twenty, and even fifty per cent, below cost, bringing the Hat business here to a dead stand, and throwing all the Hat- j ters out of employment. ‘Well,’says a Free Trader, ‘we should then have Hats cheaper, and the Hatters must take care of themselves.’ No, sir, you are mistaken in your selfish, short sighted calculation. You might get one Hat cheaper, if you live on or near the sea board ; but by the time you want the next one, the depression in England will have ceased ; cured, perhaps, by the very export which gave you your c heap hat; and now the English dealers will only supply you at good, profit-paying prices, while the A merican hatters will have been broken up, and scattered over the globe. Now you will have to pay in excess all you thought you saved on your former hat, and will have the satisfaction to know that your pol icy has destroyed Fifty Millions of Ameri can property and made paupers of fifty thousand American workmen and their families, all to no profit. Can any practical man, not ignorant of business, fail to understand this ? Let us assume that the average cost of making Hats in this country is Three Dollars each. Now our hatters, if they can thereby se cure and control the market of the West Indies, will make hats for it at 82 50 —they can afford to make the additional quantity, in the same shops, &c. at that price, hav ing the Home Market secure to them as a basis of their operations, although they could not make all their hats at that price. But give them the undisputed Foreign Mar ket also, and they will sell hats there quite as high as here. One moie illugtration, and wo will take it from our own business. Newspapers are printed in thiscountry cheaper than in any other in the world ; yet this does not en tirely shut out foreign papers. But if an English journal could take the place and answer the purpose of an American jour nal, just as a yard of British broadcloth or calico could answer the purpose ofthe cor responding American article, we should be flooded with English newspapers. Their Government would remit the Stamp Duty on newspapers exported ; the publishers, whenever a steamship was about to start, would collect all their out-of-date, uncal led-for numbers, and ship them off to this country, to sell for whatever they would fetch. Would this permanently cheapen newspapers in this country ? Far from it. Our publishers, undersold capriciously and so often left with heavy editions unsalea ble on their hands, must assess the loss on 1 their business generally, and ultimately on ! their subscribers ; they must ask higher I prices or bestow less expense on their pa -1 pers. The result would be an increase of oost to the American reader, ns well as great hardship and injury to American pub- Ushers, printers and paper-rnakers. “ Prosperity has returned to our country.— Thousands of workmen have procured employ ment in consequence of the adoption of a Tariff llial was carried by Democratic intis.” So says the Pittsburgh Morning Fust, a Loco Foco paper. We ought, perhaps, to bo quiet so long as it don’t yet quote a Na tional Bank and the Land Distribution as Loco-Foco measures ; but we would just like to have the Post tell us what one Lo co-Foco in Congress professed to be a friend ol this Tariff when two or three dozen voted for it; and what chance there would be of its preservation iftho Post’s party were as strong in the Senate as they are in the House ? The Crop. —lt will be observed on refer ence to our Prices Current in this morn- ‘■ ing’s paper, that the total crop of Georgia for the year ending the Ist inst. was 304,292 bales Last year it was 229,696 “ j And for the year ending September 30, 1841, 148,945 “ Being an increase over last season of 74,- ! 596 bales, and over the season of 1840 and 1841, 155,347 bales, or more than double the yield of that year, and nearly a quarter more than last year. Yesterday after our prices current was made up, several parcels of Cotton changed hands at a further advance of j a j cent per lb. —Savannah Republican, 16 thinst. If the Locofoeos are to be beliqved, there is no earthly doubt of the triumphant suc cess ot Mr. Clay. The Calhoun papers j prove very satisfactorily that if Mr. Van ! Buren is nominated lie cannot bo elected, | and the V an Buren papers state that the e- j lection of Mr. Calhoun is utterly without i the limits of- possibility. It follows, ofj course, that Mr. Clay’s election is beyond j all doubt, as neither of his opponents stands | any chance according to the calculations of their own partisans. —Louisville Journal. Money in New York. —'The Express of Monday says : There is no improvement ! whatever in the rate of interest in this city, j The Banks loan freely at 3 and 4 per cent I per annum, and large sums have been loan- I ed within a few days at the reduced rate j of 3 per cent per annum. Persons desirous j of loaning money on bond and mortgage,! are asking 6 per cent on city property, but I they cannot obtain it, and very large sums belonging to English capitalists, as well as to our own, are laying idle, seeking invest ment. Formerly, when money was one. and two per cent, it could ays be had at 7 per t ent on mortgage, as that security ■ was preferred. Now, vhen money is ob- | tained on notes at 4 per cent, 6 and 7 per ; cent is asked on mortgage. A change will no doubt take place. Five per cent on ; bond and mortgage, is a large interest in ! the present state of the money market. Augusta Chronicle. I Counterfeit Mexican Dollars. —Some Ut ile doubt is expressed by the New Orleans ; Bee, whether the government of Mexico has not ventured upon the ruinous and dis graceful expedient of debasing the coin of that country. A considerable amount of money was recently found in the posses sion of a young man, who was proved to have received it in good faith, which on ex amination was found to be largely mingled with spurious alloy Fifteen of the dol lars wore assayed by Dr. Riddell. Sever: , al of them were found to contain 52 c, 53, j 54 and 55 cents ofsilver, and the rest cop-1 per, others were composed of nickel and j copper. Frqjm the testimony elicited it j seems probable that that tho money was ac- ! tually issued from the Mexican mints.— N. ; Y. Jour, of Com. The first Newspaper Editor. —Our hiifto- j riesdo not reach back so far in the age of | the world as might be wished, hut the first ! newspaper editor of whom we have any ac count, was a Mr. Ccelius, wiio edited a very [ interesting paper in the time of Cicero.— The Roman orator having been appointed governor of Cilicia, engaged this friend to make up, and send him, by every mail, a full and particular account of every inter esting occurrence that took place in Rome during his absence. In performing this service he employed several reporters, who furnished him the proceedings of the senate, the edicts, the trials and decisions of the courts, the fashionable intelligence and gen eral news, while he wrote the leading arli cles and the politics. Had the art of prin ting been in use; newspapers would have been common over the Roman empire, the world of that period. LONGEVITY OF A SWALLOW. The Courier Francais contains the fol lowing story : “ Yesterday one of the inhabitants of the QuaiConti took a swallow in the nest which she had built under the eave of his house. Round the neck of this bird was a small , plate of silver attached by a light chain ofj the same metal ; on the plate are engraved annee 1724. Had this bird really lived 119 years ? It is probable; for it is well known that ravens, parrots, and swallows, attain a very old age. We are assured that the bird and the plate will be presented on Mon day to the Academy of Sciences.” The Albany Advertiser says that a re markable swallow seems necessary for re ceiving the above. o ft itun vg. Died, in this County, on the 15th inst, JOHN MORIA, eldest son ofthe Rev. John Q. West, aged 14 years nine months and a hail. The disease of whicli he died, was a very flat tering case of imflammatory fever. The day be fore his death, he arose from hissed without any assistance and walked into an adjoining room, and some fifteen or twenty minutes before h. I breathed his last, he conversed cheerfully’) ex ! hibiting sigi.s of a speedy recovery. I It appears, however that the workings of h a j own mind were different. At the first of his at j tack he expressed a belief that he was going t > die and exhibited a willingness to depart it it win ! the will of God. One day he called for the ti - lde, and asked his sister to read to him, and at i ter she had finished the 119'h Psalm, lie clasped | his hands and exclaimed “ these are good ver se.-” On the morning of his death, lie again i said he thought he should and o, “ but,” said he, “ 1 I am not afraid to die.” Alas ! his expectations are realized, to the grief and sorrow of his friends. The scene is closed, aud although short was his passage from ! the cradle to the grave, he has carried with him I the affections of all who knew him. Asa son, he was dutiful and obedient; as a j brother, kind and affectionate ; as a student, apt ! and industrious ; as a school-mate, he entwined j around the esteem of all, and has left a healthy j influence which will never he eradicated.
