Well, says one, how are we to put a stop
to this abominable state of affairs ? 1 an
swer, the remedy is in the hands of the peo
ple ; it is their groat business to redeem the
country from these functionaries that are
now drawing its blood, to save what little
is now left of honor and treasure, and (es
pecially here, in Georgia,) drive the swat ms
of office-holders that have so long and so

and put in men that will do honor to them
selves and justice to the country.

Postmasters and others in the sur
rounding counties, will do us a favor by
forwarding us the returns of the Election,
in time for our paper of next Thursday.
The Election.
This is the last opportunity we shall have
of addressing our readers previous to the
Election, and we know not that we can add
any thing to what has already been said to
convince our friends of its importance.—
Every argument that could be used has
been used to induce a united and strenuous
effort on the part of the Whigs of Georgia.
Their press has done its duty—it now re
mains for the people to do theirs.
This Election fixes in a great measure,
the destinies of the State for the next two
years! Either we are to have for Govern
or, Mark A. Cooper, a man who, though
once one of us, is now completely identified
with our opponents, and will carry out to
their fullest extent their dangerous and
destructive doctrines, and will do so the
more effectually as possessing more of tal
ents and boldness than the other leaders of
that party ; or we are to have for Govern
or, George W. Crawford, a man who has
fought for us and with us in adversity and
prosperity—*who has opposed with the whole
force of his commanding talents and elo
quence, the disgraceful policy of the Loco
focos, and who has done much to rescue our
State from the dishonor which their policy
has brought upon it. Whigs, can you hes
itate between them ?
It is needless to urge the necessity of ex
ertion to elect Members to Congress or to
the Legislature. Though victory may be
thought easy, yet it is never gained by the
Whigs without exertion. Every thing de
pends upon the efforts of individuals—eve
ry man has some influence, and if the
Whigs use theirs, we have no doubt of the
•result. If they remain supine and indiffer
ent, if they neglect to come to the polls
themselves or to procure their neighbors to
come, the administration of the State must
be committed again to the hands of such a
Democratic Legislature as the last, of whom
it was said by the best Editor of their party,
when a feeling of honest indignation mo
mentarily overcame his party feelings:
“ It cannot be disguised and it is useless
to deceive ourselves, the proceedings of the
last Legislature have been condemned by
the people of Georgia. The members of
that body have trifled with the best interests
of the State ; they could have restored con
fidence in the credit and faith of the State ;
and they have not done it. They could
have placed the paper issm . by the State
institution on a par value— ami they have
not done it. They could have cailed on
their constituents for sacrifices, which
■would have been cheerfully met, because
sensible of their urgent necessity—and they
have not done it. They had it in their ;>ow.
er to choose upright, able and honest citi
zens to fill several offices within their con
trol—and they have not done it. They had
it in their power to conduct the proceedings
of both branches with dignity, economy,
despatch and usefulness — and they have not
done it. The people are not blind or deaf,
they have seen and heard how their repre
sentatives behaved themselves.”
Tricks of flic Enemy.
A paper published in Milledgeville, and
called (though professing to be Democratic)
the Federal Union, is accusing Mr. Craw
ford, of procuring the passage of a law to
give negroes the rights of citizenship, or in
other words of being an abolitionist!! The
editor of that paper is a State House orticer,
has been in office many years, has received
thousands of dollars of the peoples’ money,
and now, alarmed at the prospect of losing
his hold on the Treasury pap, has become
entirely reckless in his assertions, and re
gardless of the truth.
The law which he says gives free ne
groes the right of citizenship, was passed
for anentirely contrary purpose ; to prevent
unauthorized assumption of the right by
them. It was introduced and passed, as
we have understood, expressly to meet ca
ses.in the personal knowledge of its author,
in which persons not of white descent had
bee.l allowed to exercise the privileges of
free white citizens, and provides for the tri
al of questions of citizenship. The law
can be found in the pamphlet Acts of 1840
page 32, it was voted for by Democrats and
approved by Gov. McDonald, to the Act
itself we refer our readers, none but a State
office-holder trembling for his salary can
find anything savoring of Abolitionism in it.
Mr. Crawford is also accused of being in
favor of the assumption of State debts by
the General Government—which is a lie of
course—as there is not a Whig in the State
who lias advocated that measure. •
Against Mr. Stephens, we find very little
alledged, except that he has not a very pow
erful voice, nor a very gigantic body !!
Personal abuse and hard names have been
showered upon him without stint, because
Jie dared to go into Cherokee, to meet bold
ly their best orators in argument, and to
rout them utterly in every discussion be
fore the people. One gentleman recollects
having once heard Mr. Stephens express an
opinion in a debating society, derogatory
to Mr. Jefferson, but this gentleman’s mem
ory is rather democratic and therefore not
to be depended on.
Mr. Chappell will be the lowest on our
ticket, because the Democratic papers have
not, as customary will) them,abused and vil
lified him. Did we not know him to be a
truehearted Whig, and very popular in
middle Georgia, we should fear for his e
leetion, as he has been a candidate some
weeks and the Locos have hatched up not
-a single falsehood against him. They
always abuse hardest those they fear most.
What confidence the voters of Georgia
put in the assertions of these political des
peradoes a few days will determine, we
cannot believe that the people are so igno
rant of polities, or so bigoited to party, as to
beguiled by such shallow devices.
05” Bead Horses. —We recollect that in
1840, the Federal papers in this State revi
led Mr. Dawson shamefully because, as
they said, he attempted to make political
capital out of the horses lost by the volun
teers in Florida, seven or eight years ago,
and they were very careful to let their rea
ders know thatthewhole matter was ahum
bug. Mr. Mark A. Cooper, has mounted
the same hobby, and publishes a notice in
the same papers which so reviled Mr. Daw
son, claiming great credit to himself be
cause, not that he got pay for the horse
flesh—not that he has procured the passage
of a law to indemnify the volunteers—but,
forsooth, because after laboring for two
years he has got an agent appointed to ex
amine and report on the claims 1! An im
mense exploit truly 1 We imagine the vol
unteers have had reports enough on the sub
ject from Mr. Van Buren’s Secretary of
War, and would now like to have their mo
ney. Mr. Cooper will not make much po
litical capital out this matter, it was stale,
said the Democrats, in 1840, it is still more
stale now—it “stinks in the nostrils” and
Mr. Cooper will have to acquire some super
natural power to raise voters out p( the dry
bones of spavined and broken down horses.
05“ The Democratic papers are publish
ing with great gusto the sayings and doings
of Joel Branham and Robert Bledsoe of Put
nam county Geo., who, having become aw
fully alarmed because somebody had as
sertedthat Mr. Calhoun was in favor of a
protective tariff, wrote to that gentleman to
know if the assertion was true. Mr. Cal
houn writes in answer a letter half a dozen
lines long (and rather contemptuous, we
think,) that he is not in favor of a protec
tive tariff, which every body in the United
States knew, except Messrs Branham and
Bledsoe. That he was once in favor of a
protective tariffhe dosn’t deny, but he is
changed essentially from what he “used to
was.”
This self constituted committee of enqui
ry also wrote to Mr. Clay, he returned an
answer, which these scrutinizers “in pur
suit of knowledge under difficulties” affirm
that he requested might not be published.
He sent, besides, the epitome of the princi
ples of the Whig party which has been here
tofore published all over the Union. How
any body could suppose that Mr. Calhoun
was in favor of giving “fair protection,” or
indeed any at all to American industry in
preference to British, or could mistake the
principles of Henry Clay is to us incom
prehensible, and we can assign no other
reason for the enquiry into the principles
of either of them than the desire of the en
quirers to see their names in print. We
hope they may be gratified.
It is, however, a matter of doubt if any
correspondence at all ever took place be
tween Branham and Bledsoe and Mr. Clay,
the fact that according to their own ac
knowledgement they have been in the re
ceipt of the letter nearly two months and
have never mentioned it till now, just on
the eve of the election, and their asserting
that Mr. Clay confesses in his letter that he
voted for the tariff of 1916 and 1824, when
it is well known that Mr. Clay was speaker
of the House of Representatives, and could
not vote unless there had been a tie, which
there was not, justifies the opinion that this
is a clumsy humbug, gotten up to help M.
A. Cooper, (Branham’s brother-in-law,) in
to the office of Governor. Be it also re
marked that this pair of worthies have been
called on personally by gentlemen well
acquainted with Mr. Clay’s hand writing,
to show the letter and have not been able
to produce it.
One of the chief arguments used by
the advocates of a metallic currency is that
it is more difficult to counterfeit—facts allow
that this is false; by the great skill of those
engaged in the business, aided by the new
ly discovered galvanic mode of plating me
tals, silver and gold coins are much more
readily counterfeited than well engraved
bank-bills. Almost every paper which we
receive has some account ofcounterfeit coin
in circulation, much of which no doubt pas
ses without detection. We see notices of
spurious dollars, of half and quarter dol
lars, dimes and half dimes, and even eagles
and halfeagles which arc in circulation.
It is even said, we know not how truly, that
counterfeit Mexican dollars are manufac
tured in this country and made an articleof
export to South America—a kind of domes
tic manufacture we don’t wish should be
protected!
OCf” Mr. Stephens, arid Mark A. Cooper
had a small controversy in Murray County
a short time since in which the latter got
“floored.” Mr. Stevens in exposing the
party who oppose a National Bank, had as
serted that most of its leaders were in some
way or other deriving benefit from Charters,
conferring exclusive privileges, and that
the Hon. Mark A. Cooper late ofColumbus
but now of Mount Hope, was connected
with, a large monied institution in Colum
bus, having greater powers, and more “ex
clusive privileges” conferred by charter,
than any other Bank in the State, being the
institution commonly called Shylock from
the severity of its shaves.
Some officious friend of Mr. Cooper's re
ported to him what Mr. Stephens had said,
and Mr. C. came into the Court House and
denied what/te said he had been informed
Mr. S. had stated. But upon Mr. Steph
ens repealing the statement in the same
terms as at first, during him to deny that.
Mr. C. was perfectly mum, had not a word
to say for himself. We thought the Major
had more prudence than to attempt to deny
what could be so easily, and positively pro
ved.
oO”The following extract from the Pre
sentments of the Grand Jury of Gwinnett
County condemns, in no stronger terms than
it deserves, a dirty piece of work perpetra
ted by Democrats of the last legislature:
“We present as a great greivance the
maimer in which the poor children of the
State have been wronged out of the funds
they were fully entitled to for education.
Such acts are unbecoming the State author
ities. It shows a kind of immorality and
dishonesty, that all honorable governments
ought to avoid. After the government of
Georgia had squandered away their own
funds, by unwise legislation, they are now
robbing the poor children of the small pit
tance allowed them for their education.—
We call upon the people of the State to u
nite with us, and require their Representa
tives to restore back to the poor children ev
ery cent due them from the Treasury. We
have, and still believe, that the Education
funds were specifically appropriated for
that purpose, and no other. We find on
examination, that the Tax Collectors have
not made annual returns of the money col
lected on the insolvent list. We request
the Inferior Court to investigate the matter.
Equal Representation. —There are 50,000
Loco-Foco veters in Illinois, and 40,000
Whigs. ’ The Loco-Focos have six Repre
sentatives and two Senators in Congress,
and the Whigs one Representative. In Mis
souri there are 30,000 Whigs, and this
large body have not even one Representa
tive. This is Loco-Foco equal Represen
tation. [St. Louis Republican.
It is even worse in Georgia. Here
at least one half the voters in the State are
Whigs, and they will not be Represented
at all in the next Congress unless they elect
Chappell and Stephens next Monday, which
they can do if they will try.

Mr. Clay in Ohio. —The Ohio State Jour
nal thus concludes an article on the signs
of the times:
“There is but one feeling among us in
Ohio ; and for this reason we have neglcc
tep to copy all the expressions of public
feeling, but have been content with recor
ding those of Congressional Conventions.—
Our friends in other States may rest as
sured that Henry Clay will carry this State
against Van Buren, or any other single Lo
co-Foco, by a majority as overwhelming
as did Gen. Harrison in 1840.”
Cotton Cotton Bagging. —There are now
in this city several square hales of cotton
packed in this bagging. It is better for
square bales we are told than any other.

COTTON.
The Caladonia lately arrived in Boston
brings good news for the cotton planters.
Liverpool, Sept. s.—The last few days
have witnessed uncommon animation in
the Liverpool Cotton Market, produced by
the unfavorable accounts which came to
hand on Wednesday, by the Acadia, res
pecting the new crop. On the arrival of
the news also at Havre, the cotton market
was thrown into great activity. A consi
derable advance has been the result, and
an enormous amount of business has been
transacted.
Apart from this, however, business gen
erally wears a more healthy appearance
than it has done for sometime past, and con
fidence is reviving.
During the last week Cotton, to the enor
mous quantity of 62,000 bales, has changed
hands—lialfon speculation, the other half
to the trade. Prices, in some instances,
have advanced as much as a farthing, in
every instance an eighth per lb. which,
making every allowance for the news
brought by the steamer, is considered some
what extraordinary, when there is at pre
sent on hand very little short of a million of
bales. Contemporaneous with the Acadia’s
advices, the manufacturing districts have
been experiencing a revival, and both cir
cumstances have conspired to produce that
extraordinary excitement in the market
which has just been witnessed.
The trade at Manchester is at the present
moment in a slate of greater activity than
it has been for some years past; and all
the monthly circulars published in that
town describe the activity to be general.—
But the improvement is not confined to cot
ton alone—the Woollen, Iron, and other
trades have received an impetus. Foreign
orders from various parts of the world ate
coming iri; but what is still better, as indi
cating a permanent improvement, the home
trade is in a fa rfbo re prosperous state.
This favorable state of affairs is the re
sult of extensive orders from Russia, India,
the Levant, and Germany, while the ac
counts of English manufactured goods re
ceived from the United States, especially
the Southern parts, are said to be encour
ages- •
“ He [George W. Crawford] is in favor
of a property qualification being attach
ed to voters. He has voted in the Legisla
ture of this State for a bill requiring a certain
amount of property to be held by the voter to
enable him to cast a vote in the city elections
of Augusta.”
The above libel, in connection with other
slang and falsehoods of the same stamp, we
find in the last Cassvilie Pioneer, received
at too late a moment for a fuller notice and
contradiction. It is only necessary, in re
ference to this charge, to say, that Mr.
Crawford was not a member of the Legisla
ture in 1841, when the law referred to was
passed, and consequently that there is not a
word of truth in the whole sentence.
In the same article, it is stated, that Mr.
Crawford “ is residing in the city of Sha
vers and Brokers,” in contrast with the fact
that‘Mr. Cooper is “ a Farmer,” “ shaking
the poor man's hand the same as if ho was
rich.” This like the other, contains not
one word of truth, as the writer perhaps
knew full as well as any one else. Mr.
Crawford resides ten miles from Augusta,
and is a planter in connexion with his other
pursuits.
We are more than ever encouraged at
our prospects, when we see the desperate
shifts and slanders to which our opponents
are driven in their attempts to support a
sinking cause. Milledgeville Recorder.
Counterfeit Coin. —Two half dollars
were placed before us yesterday, with the
remark that one of them was a counterfeit,
and we were requested to point out the spu
rious coin. Both were new, bore the date
of 1843, and in every respect, so far as
weight, the print of the die, and the milling
on the edge were concerned ; were perfect.
Puzzled to ascertain which of the two was
genuine, and a little doubting the assertion
of one of them being counterfeit, we put
them to the test of ringing them upon a ta
ble, when the difference between the two
was at once apparent, the genuine coin giv
ing out the true silvery ring, and the other
emitting a dull flat sound.
iThe coin appeared, on close inspection,
aided by a penknife, to be made of pewter,
and silvered over by the galvanic process ;
and so nicely and faithfully is the die cut,
and the covering ofsilver put on, that the
most practiced eye can scarcely fail to be
deceived by the appearance of the coin.
We understand that quarter dollars of a
like character with the above, are also in
circulation, and a keen look out should be
had for them.— Philad. Gazette, 6lh inst.
American Manufactures in Canada- The
Toronto Herald, says, that the imports from
the United States into the port of Toronto
from the 6th to the 25th of July, were 930
packages, the duties on \yjiich will amount
to between £750 and JESOO. Some cotton
fabrics of the United States have been im
ported, and this is probably a trade that
will increase, unless the Provincial Parlia
ment augment the duty on the present rates.
The coarser cotton goods of the United
States are likely to rival tire manufactures
of Great-Rritain in this market.
The lion. Daniel Webster has been cn- j
gaged as counsel for the heirs of Stephen j
Girard, in their suit against the city of Phil- j
adelphia.
Dr. Drake says there are but very, very j
few old doctors at the Soikli west, for these j
reasons : —lst a great many physicians die !
young; 2d, a number go to cotton planting ;
3d, not a few marry rich widows. Thus >
it is that causes the. most opposite conspire I
to deprive this quarter of the benefits of ripe J
medical experience. How. long the first
will continue with its past energy', we can- 1
not predict; hut the second will soon cease j
unless the price of cotton should rise about !
five cents a pound ; the last, however, is of)
a permanent character, forsix or eight times j
as many husbands as wives die in this re
gion.— Boston Post. |
Involuntary Ballooning. —The Courier j
des Etals Unis, ofSaturday, relates a curi- |
ous incident which occurred near Paris, in |
consequence of a balloon starting on its own i
hook, without the consent of the proprietor, j
A large concourse of people had assembled j
to see an aironaiit take (light for the upper j
air, but unfortunately before he took his !
seat in the car, cereostat got loose, and the j
grappling hook, which was dangling from i
the machine, hitched into the indescriba- !
hies of a boy who was gazing open-mouth
ed at the ascending mass, and carried him
up willy nil ly. The women, as a matter !
of course, screamed and fainted ; but the
lad, who seems to have been a hero in his i
way, clasped the rope tightly with his !
hands and feet, and with an awful rent in ,
his aforesaids, was introduced by his infla- j
ted companion imto the upper circles. Af- ;
ter a short voyage, the balloon descended, :
and deposited the little fellow safe and
sound on terra firrna.
Statistics of Lucifer Matches. —One of j
the witnesses before the Children’s Employ- j
ment Commission stated that he is a maker i
of the boxes for containing lucifer matches,
and for the American pine wood, of which
he makes them, he is in the habit of paying
the lai'ge sum of $l,lOO a year. Accor
ding to his belief, from twelve to fifteen
thousand gross of such boxes as he manu
factures were made in London during the
year 1841. Each box contains fifty match- !
es.—Upon these data the sub-commissioner j
calculates that the weekly consumption of
lucifer matches amounts to 97,200,000, or
5,055,000,000 yearly.— Lon. Paper.
A Remedy. —A correspondent of the
i London Spectator suggests the following
| plan to suppress duelling :
“Let seconds be appointed, as now, let
j them choose an umpire: let the seconds, if
j they can agree—or, if not, the umpire—
I dictate the apologies or explanations pro- j
j per to be made by the offending party, or j
| by both parties, if both are in fault. Should
a party refuse to obey the award so made, ;
let his refusal be published in the newspa
! pers, and himself be cut in decent society.
| And whether he gives or refuses the apolo
gy required ofhim, let the honor of the oth
jer party be considered as satisfied by the
j proceeding.”
A panic in 1762.—When it happened,
says the Liverpool Mail of April 1843, that
between 1782, and April 1783, some 7012
bags of cotton were imported, a perfect pan
ic was produced by this unusual supply.
During the last week, however, some 130,
900 bags were imported into Liverpool a
lone, without producing the most trifling de
cline in prices!! What a contrast.

A CARD.
Having recently been shown letters from
B. F. Griffin (a man against whom, from
his character and means, I have no legal
remedy) addressed to subscribers to the
“Augusta Mirror,” asking lor the amounts
due for subscriptions to that work, I am com
pelled again to caution my former patrons
against making any payment to him of mo.
neys due Tor subscription to the “Mirror.”
When my books fell into the hands of this
man, there was about §1,300 due me from
suffkciibers. .What proportion of this a
mount has been collected by Griffin and i
his agents, I am unable to tell, as I can i
neither get my books of account, or any j
statement from him. I have before stated
and 1 now say to such as have not paid their
accounts, that B. F. Griffin has no legal or
equitable right to collect one cent from my
books. I hope, therefore, that all such as
are still indebted—and who have had their
bills presented by him—will either make
payment to me, or B. RAMSEY,
rnv authorised agent.
