PUBLIC MEETING.
At a meeting held on the Pth inst. at the Court
House in this city, for the purpose of taking into
Consideration the propriety of constructing a Rail
Road from the Ocmulgee to the Flint River, the fk
lowing resolution was passed : 1|
R-solred, That a committee of ten be appointed
to notify the citizens of this end the adjoining coun
ties, that an adjourned meeting will be held at the
Court House in this city, on Tuesday the 23d inst.
at 11 o'clock, and to request their attendance.
Gen. Gaines has written a second letter to the edi
tors of the New Orleans Bee. He seems to think the
war might have been concluded long ago, if the gov
ernment had constructed a railroad thro’ East Flori
da, with float’ and hospitals and batteries.
ArrivedSchr. PruisillaEldridge. Darien. The
1). had orders’ to proceed to Darien for a cargo of
lumber, but not being able to procure it, re
turned yesterday, HHh and wilt take in a car
go from the mill at this place.
The above paragraph appeared In the Bruns
wick Advocate of Saturday last. We should
not have noticed it had it not contained a mis
representation of facts. The schooner arrived
here some days ago and the dipt, was in font ed
that he could procure any quantity of lumber
at either of life mills in thisviciniiy. The Do
boy mills particularly have a large quantity of
lumber on hand, rising upwardsof three hun
dred thousand feet and we are told it isof a very
supcriorqualily—betterlumber has never been I
sawed in the Southern country. If the Dru- i
isilla, had droptdown she could have procured
her cargo without atty delay.
in the Advocate is calculated to give the im.-
pression that no lumber can be procured in this
market—when the very reverse is the fact.
There is always a supply of lumber at the Do- !
boy mills, and if the Druisiila had gone there
she could have been loaded and on her hotne
tvard passage ere this. We ask the Advocate
to correct its statement in its nest number.
Fatning an Enrroß.—Our neighbor of the Bruns
wick Advocate is one of the tackiest fellows in exist
ence. Re and the following from his paperof Saturday
last:
“ We acknowledge the receipt oftteveral substan
tial presents from our friends—one in the shape of a
tine cow and coif —another of from which we
intend to have aeouple of hams for our next Christ
mas dinner,equal to .Messrs. Roloson’s last. These,
to say nothing of the mellons and other luxuries of
the season, we have received, arc enough to satisfy
our brethren of the press, that the citizens of Glynn
ure not unmindful of the printer—and for which sub
stantial tokens of good feeling the donors have our
best thanks and kind wishes.”
This is patronising an editor in the true meaning
of the word. We almost envy the present of the
cow and calf, but as respects the pig, we should have :
declined receiving it ; for lately wc have eaten so
much pork that the bristles almost grow on our back,
and in fact we liaveto blush whenever welooka hog
in the face. The pig the Advocate speaks of, is of
the improved breed introduced into Glynn county.
They have a machine in Brunswick which takes the
kinks out of pigs tails It is considered of great ad
vantage to that animal, particularly where flyes are
numerous, giving them a better sweep with their
tail. We’ll take one of the hams next Christmas,
Mr. Advocate, if you say so.
Yellow Fever in New York.—TheNkwYohk
Herald ofthe 13th inst* says: Loekntan, the pilot, ,
who died on Wednesday last, of the yellow fever,
contracted the disease on lamril the C. Colon, recent
ly from Havana. It was a confirmed though sporadic i
case, and the body turned black in ten minutes after j
the lastbreath left it. The young man’s family, to- J
gether with another pilot—who showed symtoms of
the contagion—have been removed to Staten Island,
and the house in which he died thoroughly cleansed.
There are now five cases at quarantine ; that may
recover or may not.
Rail Road Accident.—Oa Saturday night about
12 o’clock, as the train of passenger cars on the Geor
gia Rail Road were returning to this city, the loco
motive struck theendofa bar of iron which had be
come loose and was thrown off the road ; no person
whatever was injured by the accident. The passen
gers were compelled to remain in the cars all night,
and reached the city yesterday between twelve and j
one o’clock, P. M. 7’he accident occurred about ;
fifty four miles from Angusta.— Sentinel of yesterday.
At the celebration at Providence, R. I. tvventytwo j
officers and soldiers of the Revolution were preseut, j
the honored guests of the city. The Journal contains
a list of the names and ages of these worthies the
youngest of whom is 69, and the oldest 92 years. 1
The festivities of the day were dosed by a beatrtiful
display of fireworks.
The Indians. —The Tallahassee Star of the 10th
inst. says—“We learn upon good authority, that an
Indian negro has been captured, and brought into
Fort Andrews, whose disclosures with regard to the
Indians are any thing but favorable towards their
abiding the recent truce. This negro states, that he
has lately been with three different parties of Indi
ans, consisting in number of from 30 to 200; and that
they are all busily engaged in cultivating large crops
of corn ; and he hits heard them say distinctly that
they would not make peace with the white people,
but as soon as they had gathered their crops, intended
to continue hostilities more fiercely than ever. Os
this we can entertain not the shadow of a doubt.
Some of the Indians in East Florida may abide the
truce ; but that the main body of them will, we have
never believed, and especially that portion west of
the Su wanne. Hostilities frm a large portion of the
Indiansmay be looked fcJfevery day ;and prepara
tions for defence should be made accordingly. Let
not our fit the country, put any confidence
in India** Hostilities having ceased.”
The Yellow Fever at New York is among the ship
ping—brought no doubt from, the West Indies. It is
said by the American to be also on board the British
sloop of war Buzzard, which captured the Yankee

Mr, Editori
1 perceive bytha last Herald, that a eorres
pondant tins brought forward the nanleofCol.
1 C. 11. Hopkins, ns a suitable candidate to rep
sent this county in the Senate, at its next . es
i sum. I nin much gratified to find that some
1 of our citizens have aroused from their appa
rent lethargy, and in season, are disposed to
bring forward the names of suitable gentlemen
to represent old Mclntosh County in the next
legislature. The session will be one of un
doubted interest, ami many measures of great
importance will be introduced to that body for
action, which will more or less effect ottr coun
ty ; it is a duty we owe ourselves to be well
•represented. The spirit of party which for
several years has thrown its baneful influ
ence into the ballot box, should now be buried,
and ns members of one family, unite in sup
port of such men who are best calculated to
promote the welfare and prosperity of our
county. A more suitable candidate could not
have been proposed for the Senate. Col. Hop
kins’abilities are well known. He has alrea
dy represented this county in the Legislature
and gained for himself, and his constituents
much credit. I hope, therefore, he will con
sent to be a candidate, and from the senti
ments expressed by the people, since lie has
been proposed for that office, believe he will
be elected without opposition. Mclntosh.
For the Herald.
Mr. Editor:
The fall elections arc near at hand, and as
yet no individuals have been proposed to rep
resent Mclntosh County in the Legislature.
1 was pleased with the suggestion made by a
correspond ant of the last Herald proposing
Col. Hopkins for the Senate, and presume he
will, if he consents to be a candidate, receive
the undivided support of the citizens of this
county. An independent ticket should be
formed, without reference to party, and the
most suitable men brought forward. We want
vupvuuonltttii'oe of Lnitu ii nhililv nnfl
of character to represent us, who will advocate
the interests of our county, and the city'of Da
rien. By supporting Darien we advance llte
prosperity of the county. The afl'iirs of our
Bank will no doubt be brought to the notice of
the Legislature, and it is an imperious 'duu we
owe the merchants to send representut v/.swho
are acquainted with Banking, to advite her
cause. Coder this impression, I take the lib
erty to suggest the name of E. S. Rp.es, as a
suitable candidate for the House of Represen
tatives. A.
For the Herald.
Mr. Editor:
f observe that the Georgian is displeased
with your remarks on the subject of Ratifica
tion, and expresses regret at their uppearan
ce in the Journal. It says, the delegates
from .Mclntosh County supported Reduction,
and voted for the amendments to a man, and
that it is incumbent on them to support Ratifi
cation. This is very true, they voted for the
amendments and supported Reduction, and
could it have been effected on a plan disused
of party juggling, would have taken great in
ler'-st in the support of the measure, but as
it is now, one of the gentlemen I think at least
will be luke warm on the subject, and permit
the citizens of Mclntosh county, to be governed
by the dictates of their own judgments, in the
matter. The delegates have but three votes
iri the county, and I ant sure will not attempt
to influence more in favour of Mr. William
Springer's plan. A LOOKER ON.
£T Distressing news lias been received in town
(says the St. Augustine Herald of the sth inst.) that
Capt. Mitchell, and Lt. Pugh with 12men of the Ist

covered to have been a keg of white lead thrown
down the well.

A Valuable Cow. — The Pittsburg Advocatesays:
, “We know of a cow owned two miles from this city,-
which is now givingl46 quarts of rich milk per week
feeding only in pasture; but the beauty of the matter
is, that she is vulgarly native, raised in this western
country, and without a drop of foreign blood in her
veins—and then again she cost but twenty-five dol-
I lars, and would scarcely be valued higher in mar
ket.’’

Elopement and duel.— The lovers of scan
dal,—ami we nfe not without a few in thiscitv,
—have had ample food during the past week,
to gratify their vitiated appetites. It appears
that an officer, belonging to one of the regi
ments now stationed here, nml a barrister’s
lady, suddenly disappeared. Diligent search
was immediately made by Mr. Mayor Powell
and other relatives ofthe lady, but without
success. Hite, however, returned to her moth
er’s residence, after an absence of hut two or
three days. The lady is highly connected and
has three children. We have since heard that
a duel took place on Thursday lust, between
1 ohn Sttmrt. Esq. of London, barrister at law,
ai.d brother-in-law to Sir Allan McNub, and
Lieut. Grogan of the 82nd Regiment, which
lias lately removed from London to this city.
Mr. Stuart fired twice witout effect, Mr Gro
gan discharging his pistol in the air, after which
the parties left the ground, and it is said that
\ farthersatisfaction will besought in the Queen’s
j bench. We are informed that Mr. Stuart has
laid his damages at £t(XHI, and that a judge’s
order has been issued holding Mr. Grogan to
bail for £SOO.
New Orleans, July ?. —'Ve copy the
following from the 7’imcs of Saturday event
ing. The intelligence appears to dircC
aml explicit to admit about of its Cor
rectness. The death of Mr. Moore will
not only be deeply regretted by his numer
ous friends who admire him for his talents,
find esteemed him for his noble and manly
qualities, but will be felt ns a severe loss
to the whig cause, of which lie was in his
capacity as editor of a political paper, the
ardent, hold, able and indefatigable advo
cate.
Deadly Encounter. —We learn from a
passenger on board the steamer Rodney,
arrived this morning from Alekatuliia, that
J. W. Moore, editor and proprietor of the
lied River Whig, was shot dead in the
street, in that city, on the Ist inst. A gen
tleman named King llolson connected with
the office of the Republican flt that place
was the author of this horrible deed,
There had been for some time a most bit
ter controversy between these two prints,
relative to a publication in the Whig, of a
letter reflecting on Mr- alsrtin Gordon of
this city—a controversy which finally led
to a challenge on the part of llolson, and i
which Moore refused accepting on the
ground that llolson was not a gentleman,
llolson had sworn revenge, und armed
himself for the purpose of shooting Moore
on sight. They met, as it appears, on the
Ist inst. when llolson first snapped a gun
at his antagonist, and afterwards shot him
down with a pistol. Moore was also armed,
but drew no weapon, and died in a few min
utes after being shot.”
It is stated on the authority of a letter
from Opelousas that a duel was to have ta
ken place between the Hon Rice Garland,
the Congressional Representative from the
Our readers will remember that a quarcl
arose between these gentlemen some weeks
since at a trial in court, during which Mr.
Garland struck Mr. King. The parties, says
the Times, had already left Opelousas, and
were to fight on the other side of the river.
The Detroit Free Press estimates the num
ber of barrels of Flour shipped from De
troit this season at 100.000 —from Toledo
85,000, making the exports from the eas
tern side of the Peninsula worth 41,000,-
000 ! The amount sent clown the St. Jo
sephs, Kalamazoo and Grand Rivers, and
conveyed otherwise to Lake Michigan, is
estimated at equal to 70,000 barrels, worth
4500,000. The Free Press thinks it a safe
estimate to say that the surplus ofthe last
year’s harvest may be valued at two mil
lions of dollars !
From the Federal Union.
Messrs. Editors. —Some months since I ad
dressed you very briefly in relation to the set
tlements m idebetween the Augusta flanks and
the interior or country Banks, and pointed out
some of the evils that would arise under this
state of things. The Augusta Banks have con
tinued to pursue the country banks with the
vigilance of the eagle, together wit’., the bro
kers, who, following in the footsteps of those
institutions, have returned home to the country
in titutions all or the most of the circulating
medium ofthe country, and are still pursuing
the country banks to the great detriment of
the bone and sinew of the country, the plant
ing interests. The Augusta banks are some
thing like the dog in the manger, who would
not eat the hay himself or let the ox cat it.
They will not discount themselves, and the
country banks cannot or dare not, because
their bills are returned upon them in a few
dirges tor specie or exchange by the banks and
brokers in Augusta. How are the people in the
country to pay their debtsorscll their produce,
without accommodations from the banks?
The country banks are willing to discount and
accommodate, if the Augusta banks would let
them alone, f hope the next Legislature will
do something with those rtistituSions W Augus
ta, and the brokers, because they have diverted
the charter for which’ they were intended l
when granted, and made brokerage shops of
them. These banks and brokers are now a
curse to the country instead of a benefit.
Sunday School Celkbrvtjon.
From the Reading Journal.
At least one thousand children belong
ing to the Luthern, Get man Reformed, En
glish Presbyterian, Episcopal, Catholic*
arid Universalist Churches, with their teach
ers and friends, met though in separate
bodies, to do honor to the national festival.
Agreeable to arrangement the school*
attached to the English Presbyterian
Chafe!*, met about >0 o’clock, grid marched
to the lot appropriate for the purpose.
Several appropriate odes were sung and
address delivered, after which, cakes, lem
onade, and more substantial refreshments
were distributed in liberal quantities. The
children numbered about five hundred,
were then permitted to amuse themselves
in their own way. Young and old joined in’
the sports and seemed equally gratified. A
number ofthe Philadelphia Greys left their
encampment in the adjacent lot and parti
cipated in the amusements, much to the
happiness, as we thought, of ail parties.
We will venture to say that not the least
pleasent part of the time spent by them
in Reading, was while attending the Sunday
School Celebration,
A variety of exercises kept up the inter
est ofthe day aridabout 4 o’clock all return

they had spent the “ Fourth of July.
Natchez, July I. The Woodvillc Af
fray Again. —Wt regret to state that this
unhapny affair has been the occasion of
more bloodshed. A duel took plant be
tween Henrv A. Mdore and Fielding Dnvis,
on the 27th June, on the Lousiana side of
the line, about ten miles below Woodvillc,
which resulted in the death of the former.
They fought with rifles at ■ present; dis
tantancc 50 yards. Mr. Davis shot Moore
in the left side the hall entering about half
nn inch below the top of tile hip bone.
Mr. .Moor died in a few minutes, lie fell
without being able to shoot at nil. Mr. Da
vis tired immcdiutely after the word one.
Mr. Moore challenged Mr. Davis, with
out wailing for the latter to reply to his (Mr.
M.’s) publication in the newspapers, It
is but justice to Mr. Davis to state that
he was very reluctant to accept the chal
lenge, and even up to the lime of his ap
pearing on the ground, declared that he
was forced into a measure which he deplor
ed and condemned, and expressed his wil
lingness to accede to any honorable terms
of accommodation; but the opposition par
ty was determined that the fight should
take place, and Mr. Dnvis, rather than en
dure the sneering taunt of cowardice from
those who could not appreciate his motives,
yielded his better feelings and judgment
to the fiendish dictates ofu false honor.
We also regret to state that Mr. Leigh,
who was severely wounded in the former
affray, is rapidly sinking and cannot, it is
feared, survive, many days.
Front all that wc can gather frottl en
quiry front various sources, we would
conclude that public opinion in Wilkinson
county Is strongly in favor of Mr. Dhvls,
and has been with him throughout the
whole affair.
Outrage among the. Cherokee Indians
near Fort Gidson. Murder of John Ridge
