Ro*d MsrriNa.—On Tuesday lest the citi zens of this county met at the Court House, in ‘his i city, to take into consideration the propriety of con structing a Rail Road from the Ocmulgee to the Flint River. Dr James Troup was appointed President The Committee appointed at a previous meeting made a report, which was unanimously adopted, and ordered to be published in pamphlet form. A high ly interesting letter was read from Gen. Brisbane, and a considerable quantity of stock taken. The work wc understand will lie commenced about the first of November next, and it is believed willbc com pleted in two years. Reduction —The public are in possession of the labors of the Convention—they can appreciate those labors only by considering tire difficulties that had to be surmounted from the diversity of opinions en tertained by many—t*e prejudices of some, and the conflicting interests resulting from party organisa tion, in all If the labors of the Convention should be crowned with success, and the amendments of the Constitution, thus formed, be ratified by the people, it will derive its success to the implicit obedience of the People’s Representatives, in adhering to the pro visions of the law and carrying th-se provisions into c’ff et. That law prescribed 111- modi by which Reduction should take place ; and though the classi fication of the different counties are exceptionable, because influenced top much by party intrigue, for party triumph, yet themed action being in conformi ty to the act of the legislature calling a Convention ; and that act sanctioned by the people, so far as the appointment of delegates inrplies sanction, that should the amendments be rejected the strange ano m oly wouid be presented of the people disapproving that which they had sanctioned, and rejecting that which they had approved. But we will not permit ourselves to believe that the people will not ratify the proceedings of the Convert- | tion. It is obviously too much their interest to do it. j They will not permit such an > pportunily forredu citig the expenses of government to pass by, for they must be aware, if the present amendment of the Con stitution is not carried out, years will elapse before another Convention can be called, and in the interim all the evils of the present system will increase with the increase of representatio t, and the expense in cident thereto. In our next we will endeavor to point out the motives for Ratification. The Lumber Burin ess.— lf our neighbour of the Brunswick Advocate had stated that the j schooner Dtusilla left here in consequence of not being able to procure a cargo of lumber of . a particular description, we should not have penned the paragraph in our last. But he said she came to Darien for a cargo oflumber. and not being able to procure it, returned to Bruns- j wick. Ai this we took exception. Darien is so well known abroad as a lumber ■ mart, that we have heretofore said but jiltle j upon the subject, knowing that those who want to purchase good lumber will always come to j this market for the article. There arc at pre- j sent in the immediate vicinity of this city up-’ wards of two millions of feet of different di- j inensiotis, and of a quality that lias never been ; surpassed. The tieo>gia Lumber Company, j at Lumber City,have also two millions of feet oil hand, and such arc the facilities of those mills for sawing logs, that cargoes can be fur- j nished at very short notice. Near this city are threeSlcam Mills: The Doboy Mills —The . Lower Steam Mills, and the Upper Steam Mills. Each of the above named Mills drive from 4 to 40 saws, and each mill pioduces from 10 to 20.000 feet per day. The Mills at Lumber city, owned by the Georgia Lumber Company, have eleven saw gates running, and cut 50.(100 feet per day. Besides these Mdls, Mr. Brown is at present engaged ia building another Mill on j Doboy Island, which wi 1 be in full operation early in the fall. The demand for lumber at this port last winter was so great, that the Mills although in constant operation, could not sup-’ ply the demand. This will however not be the case this fall. Different arrangements have , been made, and we feel confindent that vessels can be supplied hereafter without any delay. The Lumber Business has given anew impulse to the commerce of Darien. The hundreds of sails which yearly arrive here for this article give assurance, that Darien will in a few years be the principal lumber mart in the southern country. And when our Bail Road, which will be commenced in November next, is com pleted, she will be, what nature intended her, the great emporium of the south. The whole or one hail of the establishment of the Brunswick Advocate is offered for sale. If only one half is sold, a person competent to take charge of its editorial columns would be preferred for a pur chaser. The above paragraph we copy from the Bruns wick Advocate of the 27th inst. Wc regret to learn thatour neighbor is disposed to retire from a station which he bus filled for a longtime with credit to him self and honor to the city which has given him sup port. His pa’ier has a fine circulation, and the gen tlemanly manner in which it always has been con ducted has won for it a fame of which he may well be proud. We hope he has been well rewarded for his.toil —if not, Brunswick and its friends have done him injustice. Gen. Seward’s democratic speech at the Sunday School Celebration in New York, is the true doctrine. The National Gazette well remarks that he explains in what manner the distinctions k social life are to be lessened. Not by dragging down the high, or by robbing the opulent; but by elevating the law and enriching the poor, and this, by means of mental en lightenment and the cultivation of industrious habits. He explicitly declares that inequalities in the social world are to be removed, if at all, by extending the benefits of education to all. This is the only true mode of levelling, for which the intel'igertt and the virt nous have always contended. For the Herald. Mr. Editor: Allow me through your useful paper to on* qttier of the voters of Mclntosh County, why there is so much apathy in getting up a ticket forour next Legislature. We have intelligence, and patriotism enough umong us, if we choose to call them into requisition, and I think we have not required them more for years pnst, than wo do at the present time. Tills appears to be rather an epoch with us. Our Bank will re quite the strong aid of its friends, and our con templated enterprise in uniting the Altamahaw and Flint Rivers by Rail Road ; with other matters important but more loeal in their char acter, through interesting things tous. I would as a citizen, that is interested in the prosperity of our city and County, bug to suggest our useful and intelligent citizen Dr. Troup, as worthy in every way, and capable of repre senting us respectfully in the Senate, and hope, and believe, he would have no objectii n to re ceive our votes, at the next election for that office. It would at all events be worthy our i efforts to obtain him. Our present incumbent, Col. Hopkins, would I hope, accept of a re-election to his present seat. His promise of future usefulness is flat tering, and his publick services, I believe have given general satisfaction. A VOTER The editor of the Little Genius has just returned from an expedition into the country —lie has been try ing to kiss the quakeresses or some such vegetable, and on his return says among otherthings, “My fame has gone abroad to the four winds of Heaven, like the suspension of specie payments.” No doubt, and we imagine his fame is based on the samcprinciple — leant of capital. A serious accident occurred on the New Jersey Railroad on the 16th inst. It appears thut in the morning two Irishmen, both intoxicated, were reel ing along the track inquest of work, when they were told to moveoffor they would be run over. They did not mind what was said, and in attempting to jump upon a dirt car, fell between the cars and directly across the track. Hugh Murphy was run over, which so mangled his leg that lie was obliged to undergo immediate amputation. None of those attached to the railroad or waterworks are to blame. Gov. Seward, of New- York has declined giving up a fugitive felon, on the demand of the Governorof Upper Canada, on the ground that the right of sur real t in such rases is among the rights ceded by tile States of this Union to the General Government, remarking that the aliowane.e of State jurisdiction in such cases might be a fruitful source of difficulty w-ith foreign nations, inasmuch asa refusal to comply with ajust requisition would be h sufficient cause of war. The Sea Serpent.— The hotel at Nahnnt is now ready for the reception of visiters. At least we infer as much from the fart that a Boston paper announces the reappearance of the sen serpent. “Two respect able men” declare solemnly that they saw him on the morning of the. 4th, between Chelsea and Nahnnt. The Richmond Compiler, of the 15lh inst., snys that letters have been received there announcing the death of Mr. Leiqii, son of Benj. Watkins Leioii, of Virginia, on the 29th June. His death was caus ed by a wound received in a duel fought in Missis sippi, some time since. Gene.ral Scott was at Chicago last Saturday. He was on hi s way To Fort Winnebago to quell the trou ble that had broken out among the Indians. Helms quieted them ere this. The ship Mary [lowland, arrived at New York from Liverpool, has brought ten Durham cows and one bull, said to be the handsomest animals and purest blood ever imported. They belong to the Hon. llknby Cray. A. S. Willinglon . Erq., senior Editor of the Charleston Courier, we are happy to learn, on the authority of that paper, has recovered from the seri ous illness with which he was seized at Malta, and had arrived at Rome, on his return to America, in good health. (treat Rale.- —We learn from the Baltimore Ame rican, that a gentleman of that city who has a field of fifteen acr is filled with a crop of flourishing mar us muUicaulis, lias sold the crop during the present w*'ek for thtf sum of thirty-two thousand', five hundred dollars. A Fact. —Last year an English barque, bound to this port from Wales, says the Wilmington(N. C.) Chronicle, laden with Rail road iron, went into the Delaware, and anchored off’ Wilmington, (Del.) —the captain having, in consulting his chart, had his eye arr sled by that Wilmington, and not knowing of the existance of any other. The mistake was not dis covered until the captain inquired in the town for his consignee. Aiimiru, Bal'Din lius left Pensacola fur France with his fleet The cause ofthis sudden and unexpected movement issome trouble between the Admiral and Commodore Shubrick, arising from the supposed want of professional courtesy on the part of Admiral Baudin. Commandant Mclntosh, ofthc Yard, ex ; changed civilities and a national salute with the French squadron, on its departure. Debasing. —lt is in agitation by the government to debase the silver coin of the country, so as to make the exportation of it an unprofitable business. The Secretary of the Treasury is an ad vocale for adulterat ing it to the extent of half its value, so as effectually to secure the object sought. Like measures were ta ; ken in respect to the national gold coin, some years ! since. Wonderful. —Edward Walpole, the keeper of a * faro bank in Mobile, was prosecuted a short time since, for violating the statute against gambling, and, wonderful to relate, was fined SIOOO for the offence. C. B. Churchill for murdering George Churchward, in the aamcplace, wasonly convicted of manslaugh ter and fined 8200! Verily, Justice in Alabama thou art a fickle goddess. Mr. Clay —The same paper says: Wc expected to see Mr. Clay here on Monday, as we heard that he was on his way from Cincinnati to this city. He, however, di rected his rout to Logan county, wheie he has some business to transact. From there : he will shortly proceed to Niagara Fulls \ and Canida. [Mr. Clay arrived at Buffalo on Saturday morning, and at 9 o’clock proceeded to the Falls of Niagara, where he intended to re main for a few days, as the guest of Gener ; al Porter.) Tdßßi ? NtfO S B.C QB NT Y JTUp AllPb Hhunrwick, July 27. j LATE FROM FLORIDA. More Indian Murdkrh.—By the polite ness of a friend, we have been favored with the perusal of u letter received from a gen tleman residing in Tallahassee, dated Sun day morning, I till inst., which states that groat excitement prevailed at that place in consequence of the Indians having attuckod and murdered several families in that vicin ity the night previous, and fired their dwel lings. The writer states that the conflagra tion was seen from Tallahassee, and that the city, although Sunday was in arms. A draft, it was confidently expected, would take place, in a few days—a large number of the troops having been removed from the territory in consequence of the treaty recently entered into by (ten. Macomb, This is ceasing hostilities with a vengeance. Indeed there have been quite as many bloody allroeities committed by the Indians since the “talk” held with Gen. M. as was ever known to have taken place during the same length of time previously. We ltope our Government will profit by past experience, and lose no time in having these merciless savages exterminated, as it is evident they will not be bound by any treaty; unapcaceble relations can never exist in Flor ida while a remnant of them arc allowed to remain in the territory. By the same letter wc are happy to learn that two of the Stages intended to form a line between Brunswick and the Chuttaho ache, till the rail road is completed, had ar rived at Tallahassee, and that two or three more were daily expected. The writer adds they are built in magnificent style. Another. —Capt. Bailey ofihe steamer Ivanhoe, arrived at this port from Black Creek yesterday morning, informs us that just before he left, a report reached there that a white man had been murdered by the Indians near Fort Mellon. Particulars not known. YVc also learned from Capt. Bailey, that he had on hoard his boat, a young man by tile name of Charles Hartman, seaman on board the U. S. Cutler Crawford, who accidently fell from the maintop of that vessel in St. Marys, on the 25th inst. by which accident he Undone of his legs broken above the knee, and recei ved oilier bodily injury, from which he was not expected to survive. He was on his way to Savannah, to he placed in the hospital there. Hartman was a native of Bremen [Advocate. fCJ-The following most surprising intelli gence will astonish ourrenders:— [ Correspondence of the Charleston Courier, j Washington, July 18. 1839. After a protracted silence —post longo inter ratio—l resume my pen logtve you the sub stance of a report which lias for some days ag itated our usually stoical community. A deep mys'.ery’has hitherto involved the lute of the Hornet , which was supposed to huve foun dered, years ago, in a gale; and every circum stance, however improbable, which related 10 her position, when last seen, has been ferreted out and narrated, witii a degree of minuteness which evinced tire deep feeling which, to this day, exists in relation to her fate. Anew and startling light lias been suddenly cast upon (lie mystery, by art offer of an individual to exhib it proofs that litis ill-fated vessel outlived the gale, in which it was believed t hut site perish ed, and met hcrdesti uetiim from enemies more cruel than the elements. The nume of the in dividual it would be obviously improper to ptiblis i until his story shall huve assumed a and authentic form, and tiie tes timony, by which it is to be established, shall have been obtained. The amount of the dis closure here made is that, after pussing thro’ the gale, in safety her magazine was fired by conspirators, bribed to'effect this diabolical purpose by the head of a foreign government,! and th at 4JO brave men were thus instantane- j ously hurried into eternity, in a moment of en-1 tire self-security, and while the interchange of congratulations for their preservation from the prey of wind und wave wus ycl unfinished. He who voluntarily comes forward to make this disclosure states that he was not himself present at the catastrophe; but that a friend w<ts there; und for ibis friend lie requires pardon in the establishment of the truth of his statement. He also asks for a pecuniary re ward for himself. The evidence on which he proposes to establish the facts is the production of the ship’s log-book up to the moment of the catastrophe, and also of the private letters of tiie officers, with other testimony of a corrobo rative character. The subject is now before the Navy Board, and has led to frequent and long deliberation. But they will not be able to come to any conclusion as to the conditions required by the informent. Indeed they have no authority vested in them to make stipula tions of a pecuniary nature. It is said that the President has been written to on the sub ject, and that the ulterior proceedings in the case will depend on his reply. The members ofthc are inclined to attach importance to the statement of this man, in consequence of some private communication which he has made concerning the motive to tiie instigation of this awful outrage, which motive they deem satisfactory and sufficient. For the sake of humanity, and for the sake of our country, it is to be hoped that no effort will he spared to elucidate the whole of this affair ; and, be the consequences what they may, to work retribu tion in those by whom this scheme was plan ned, and by whose influence it was carried into effect. Fiat juslitia , pereat mundus. J Fenimore Cooper, Esy. is out in the Phila delphia World, in reply to the severe strictur es upon his Naval History which have appear ed in the Commercial Advertiser of this city. He says that part of the articles which he con siders personally libelous will be attended to elsewhere. The Editor of the latter print may consider this a sure intimation of a libel suit. Saratoga Springs are now filling up. It is expected that Mr. Clay will be there about the close of next week. Possibly the President will be there about the same time. In August General Scott will visit the .Springs. Destructive Fire in Maine.—Nearly one halfof Eastport, Maine, was destroyed by fire on the 6th inst. It broke out in No. 9 Water street, made a clear sweep through the street on both sides. The buildings on Hayden, Cen tral, Union, Steamboat and Hobbs’ wharves were consumed. Two vessels, the Martha and Abigail, were totally destroyed. Theloss is estimated to be $24J,090, of which about SIOO,OOO is insured. Richmond Flour Inspection. —The Whig of Tuesday says:~-“We learn from the Inspector, that the extraordinary num ber of 239,119 barrels and half barrels of all qualities were inspected during the year ending the 30th of June last. This is the largest number inspected for many years, and we believe has only been once exceed ed.” More Humbug-—The Attorney General of the State of Louisiana bays, that the Declaration of Independence is a humbug. We presume he considers ita libel on the British King and hence a humbug. Flour. —The Wheat harvest ns far North us Maryland inclusive, isalu'iuly in; ami notwith standing some local exceptions, particularly in lower Virginia, it Is oil the whole one of the richest that ever was gathered. There is every prospect of a similar result in Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, Michigan, und oilier grain growing Suites ; so linn we limy safely calcu late upon u large surplus fur exportation, and that the price ol flour will be regulated by what it is worth for that purpose. This will depend, ill part upon the scantnessor plentifulness of the crops in oilier countries. By tiie last ac counts, the wheal prospects were good in Eng land, and we have seen, as yet, no iniimn ntion of short crops any where except in Chili liut at all events, wc shall find a demand for flour in the West Indies and South America; which we can supply if wc will doit cheap enough ; and with reference to the effect oil ex changes, it is not material where the flour goes to, if only it goes at all. Notwithstanding tiie short crops so 1837and 1838, weexported in tlie twelvemonth ending 30th September last flour to the value of $3 003,209. During the year to come we see not why we cannot export to tiie value of $10,000,000, unless some unlooked for disasters should befal the crop in the Middle and Northern States. The effect of this upon our ex changes will be sensibly fell. Added to 1,600,- 000 dales of cotton (which the next crop will probably realise) it will turn exchanges deci dedly in out favor, unless we go to importing too freely, which we arc apt to do whenever we degin to feel strong, When exchanges become favorable, the pressure upon the money market will cease, ns there will then be no motive for the exportation of specie, and consequently the Banks will be more free with their discounts. A person who had drank too much the night before was yesterday placed before Recorder Baldwin, of the second municipality. •‘You were drunk last night,” said the Re corder. “You’re right for once,” said (lie prisoner. ‘1 shall send you for thirty days,’ said the Recorder. ‘Oil. don’t said the prisoner. ‘1 will,’said the Recorder.
