We have taken a peep at the race boat
Thomas Spalding. owned by Mr.Chick.6hc is a
pretty affuir and as far as we can judge is like
ly to afford some sport to the lovers of aquatic
contests in our neighbourhood. She is a canoe
boat and has been modcld in New York express
ly for the owner. The arrival of such a ‘craft’
among us would seem to augur the perntauent
establishment of a Boat-club, and we know of
no species of amusement which affords more
rational and legitimate pleasure than the
‘•sports of the wave,” they furnish a gratifi
cation too which is always participated by the
Ladies, and on that account possess an addi
tional lecomraendation. We do not see why
Darien, should be behind her neighbours in
the promotion of “aquatic spoils”—and hope
to sec her “come out ahead” yet.
GEORGIA, HER PROSPECTS, Ac
Amid the din of political warfare, our attention is
frequently arrested for a time, by objects which fail
to impress us with a sense of their importance, and
tiros while we arc borne away on the stream of pub
lic excitement, we lose sight of many sources of mu
tual congratulation which the present affords. Time*
and seasons undergo their accustomed changes, but
man, dissatisfied man, remains the same, the more
distant the object of his pursuit, the greater is his
eagerness toobtain it f the more speculative his pro
jeet, the more powerful is the charm which allures
him, and he too often finds a resting place only in
the conviction, that he has wandered too far front
home in the pursuit of happiness.
But while some are busied in speculations which
scent to afford them no return for their zeal, there is
one class of individuals, who have much reason to
rejoice in the present aspect of affairs. We allude
to the mercantile population of this State. In which
ever direction wc look, we are giatificd by the in
creasing and unwavering manifestation of commer
cial enterprise, and it is a pleasing reflection, that
at no time has this laudable spirit afforded a more
cheering prospect than it docs at present. The ge
nius of Industry has long been hovering over us,
and th; citizens of our Btate are about to-reap the
harvest which exertions, untiring and zealous us
theirs, deserve, and seldom fail to ensure.
We cannot withhold our ntced of praise front the
good people of Savannah, as, among the first to en
gage in any project which holds out promise of ad- j
vantage to themselves and their commercial brethren -
in other parts of Georgia, they have maintained the j
proud elevation, from which the taunts of envy ;
sought to wrest them, and have shewn to nil around
that they were actuated by philanthropic and honest |
motives. For evidence of this we nerd only look at |
the improvements which they have effected or which ,
they are about to effect. The benefi's which must |
result to this and other States, from our Central j
Rail Rond, will owe their origin to the determined j
spirit of Improvement shown by the citizens of Sa- j
vanah. It is true that, individuals in other section*
have added many Units to the chain which shall yet :
unite the commerce of the South, but it isto them that j
we must trace the roister spirit of Uniot.
Ti.ose of our readers who have never visited Sa
vannah would be well repaid by doing so, she pos
sesses attractions which are never lost upon the
stranger.
Our steamboats will soon resume their wanted
trips, and after the monoton of summer an excur
sion through the rivers, and sounds cannot fail lobe
highly exhilarating. In the business seas on Savan
nah presents an exceedingly interesting appearance;
The view from the “summit” of the Exchange, is ex
tensive, varied and picturesque. Immediately be
low, is the city with her regularly laid out squares,
and groves of luxuriant foliage, her wharves lined |
with gallant ships, receiving their rich freights of our j
•laple productions or vying with each other in sup- :
plying us with the treasures of foreign lands. A j
little to the South is the“monumenl” which however
simple in its external appearance, is an object of pe
culiar interest to the traveller aud the patriot, from its
association with the names of Green and Pulaski:
and last not least, is the beautiful river, winding in
its serpentine course to the ocean, and bearing on her
1 osom the “rich argosies” tributary to our eommetce
and reminding us of the fruits of peace, industry
and enterprise.
DEATH OF GENERAL HAYNE,
The Charleston Patriot of Saturday last, says
—“ It is with feelings of inexpressible pain we have
to state that Gat. Robert Y. Hatne. one whom
both ths State of South Carolina and the City of
Charleston delighted to honor and cherish with *
warmth of affection that never knew abatement—
Died at Nashville(N. C.) on Tuesday last, after a
few days illness, of Bilious Fever. Gen. Hirst
was in his 49th year. Thus has perished in the ripe
ness of his faculties and the maturity of his useful
ness, a citizen who was identified, through a long
and prosperous public career, with almost every
scheme for the advancement of the commercial pros
perity of our city and the political elevation of our
State.”
The Cate of the A nritad's Crew Decided. — The
New York Journal of Commerce of last Saturday, 2
P. M., has the following postscript :
“We learn that a member of the Grand Jury arri
ved in this city this morning in the steamboat from
Hartford, and states that Judge Thompson decided,
that in a few of the facta presented by them, the
Courts of this country had no jurisdiction in the case,
and that the transaction was to ua the same at if it
took place in Havana.—Consequently the Grand
Jury found no bifl against the prisoners.”
yoa the Darien herald.
Temperance a* it Should be.
“You (poke gs innovations, and I also be
lieve it is ill to try experiments in States un
less the need be urgent.”
Mr. Editor:
1 trust I shall not be presuming too much on
the praiseworthy disposition which you have
manifested, in giving the friends of Temper
ance “a field” in your cotuines. The days have
passed away in which men would sit with
their mouths and ears open, and readily swal
low every new Tangled doctrine, which the
learned might choose to palm upon them. And
every mail now—a days reads and judges for
himself, and we might us well attempt to con
vince a reasonable man that the Sun was not
in his meridian at noon day, as to persuade
him that truth and honesty can be overturned
by sophistry or any other system of reaton
ing .
Your correspondent ‘Fidea’ has dubb’d me
with the honour of Knighthood, but alas ! Sir,
the days of chivalry are among the things
that were, or at least the only vestige of it
which remains to us. is to be found in a cru
sade to the Okefinokee, whither I am not in
clined to proceed. You will recollect that
‘Fidcs’ left me swooning, and will nodoubt be
happy to hear that I have recovered. .4 few
words of encouragement from the “delicate
lilies” (Heaven bless them) have completely
restored me to animation, and armed me. cap
a-pie, against further attack, hut as ‘Fides’ in
vokes argument, I will endeavour to adminis
ter what I hope will be the argumentum ad
demonstrandum to that profound logician.
You will agree with me Mr. Editor in say
ing, that the first communication of ‘Fides’
needed not a second reading, to impress the
reader with a sense of it’s tiller destitution of
argument, and this accounts for my having
used none ill reply to him. Heaton is al
ways ■permitted to view passing events in their
true light, and the light of truth cannot be em
blazoned by the power of argument. He
says, he is no “Fanatic,” and at the same time
slates that the tree should be judged by its fruit,
this indicates that he should leave the public to
determine whether he is a “F'anotic” or not.
His last communication possesses too much of
paradox, and he has exhibited hit argument
in so distorted a form, lhat until men shall
si and on their heads as well as on their heels
I fear they will be unable, to comprehend
them.
lie compares my epistle to idle wind but,
however idle it may have been in other res
pects, it appears to have occasioned “Fides”
contiilerable business , it bus carried him with
the violence of a hurricane from the shores of
“old Gaul” to the sea-girt isle of “St. Helena,”
it has conjured up the phantours of Napoleon,
Alexander, and various others to help him out
of his dilemma: Now sir, we all know enough
of the history of these men, to convince us
that they were no Teetotallers, and charily
of which “Fides” talks so much, should induce
us to bury their faults with their ashes, “qui
eseani in pace.”
“Fides” seems to have had occasion for all
the reason, with which he is so strongly arm
ed, in dispersing ibis empty vaptntr and thanks
his protecting star ( which I am sure is noth
ing in the shape of a woman,) that there is
enough of him left to speak ; and to what
does his speaking ainouut ? he lias taken a
roundabout way to prove two facts, (viz.)
that “empty kettles make the most noise and
that to err is htynan” he says wisely that he
needs not cite instances to prove these facts,
he needs not indeed, his own example speaks
volumes.
Friend “Fides’’regrets that the Temperance
party have adopted the motto “he that is not
for us is against us” but we ask none of his
sympathies on lhat score. lie asks ifhimsclf
and his party are to be forced into measures
against their views? I answer yes! If the
majority of the people say so you must
abide by their decision. Is not the culprit
who has offended the laws of his country, for
ced into measures and into prison too against
his views? That only is a good government
whatever title jt may assume in which public
opinion is allowed to have its due influence, in
the framing of laws for the pttblick good, and
as soon as a question is found to involve the
social and national interests of a community,
from that moment should it become a political
one : This uncharitable motto, was proved
to be practical in the war of the Revolution in
which the United States shook off the yoke of
foreign oppression and did it never occur to
our historical friend, that the advocates of lib
erty found in many instances to their sorrow,
that “those who were not for them were against
them ? The neutrals of that day, were in just
such a position as “Fides and Cos.” have as
sumed with regard to the Temperance cause
of 1839.
“Fides’ asserts (tell it not in Gath) that the
Temperance question should never be brought
to the ballot box ! Alas poor Yorick ! could
the ballot box be made capable of speech, on
this subject, what Mr. Editor would be it’s tes
timony 7 Would it not tell us of birthrights
bought and sold? Os liberty trampled in the
dust ? Os freedom trodden under foot by her
own sons 7 I may not know much of human
nature, but I know something of human prac
tices, which are it’s offspring aud from this
knowledge I infer that intemperance has had
a place at the ballot box long enough. lam
too candid for “Fides,” but he cannot know
much of the motives which actuate the advo
cates of Temperance, or he would know that
in relying on their own strength, they rely
on the strength of candour, and free discus
lion-, they heve founded their principles on
the broad basis of public experience. We agree
with “Fides” in his opinion of the disparity
which exists between the Lion and the lamb,
and tell him, that our cause is the Lion whose
huge paws will yet rest on the four quarters of
the globe and whose roar has already shaken
the very foundations of vice and misery which
ha”e enthrall’d the world : he may say I am
MOXN?QSB OODNTV jggt&AJ'&a
despotic ; but is it despotism w hen virtue takes
the rule instead of immorality, when man
grown tired of the shackles of a tyrant, adopts
the government of true Jiepvblicanitm, aa his
own ? Let teason answer. I cannot agree with
“Fidcs” in his remarks on the consequence of
a repeal of the license law; Grog shops mtghl
spring up like mushrooms but like mushrooms
they would soon disappear for want of susten
ance, he has libeled the character of the good
people of Georgia, and he will find that they
are not to be gulled with such assertions. He
also states that no court in Georgia would pre
vent auy individual from selling his own law
fully acquired property in any quantity he plea
ses, forgetting lhat the law of the state says
expressly, that he shull not sell such property
to negroes in any quantity, if as he asserts the
license sow was only made in order to pay the
State expencea, why ore not all storekeepers
taxed in the same proportion os retailers of ar
dent spirits are as such.
But “Fides” has used one argument, which
proves an assertion of mine in a former com
munication, to be a true one ; it was, that In
temperance and Fanaticism, go “hand in hand,
he says that our attachment for objects increa
ses in a direct ratio with the means adopted to
withhold us from them. This is the language
or rather the practice of madmen and Fanatics
“id ct omne genus. What 1 would he have us
believe our nature to be so debased ? would
lie argue for a moment that his own propensi
ties are strongest for those indulgeneesof pas
sim*, against which the laws of God aud man
arc most vehement ? has he nothing to deter
him from the commission of evil deeds but the
newspaper press and public opinion 7 Forbid
it Heaven ! Forbid it Reason! Forbid it ev
ery sense of right and wrong, which an all
wise and merciful Being has implanted in our
breasts!
The reasoning of “Fides” in relation logun
powder and steam cannot be brought to bear
for a moment on the subject of Intemperance,
if our ancestors had not gunpowder, they had
a substitute for it and they knew, aswc know,
that it was a necessary evil, which remark
cannot be uppiicd to Intoxicating drinks. Os
two evils we should choose the least, and there,
can he no question, that it would be better for
s to have prohibitory laws, which would bear
only one construction and secure us against
evils of Intemperance, than to have restrictive
ones, which according to the argument of
“Fides” only serve to make men dishonest,
and arc not specific enough to accomplish the
purpose for which they were framed. I have
never been able to understand that there was a
healthy mediocrity in the indulgence of vi
cious, and degrading passions, and whoever
advances such an argument, subverts every
principle of ethics and destroys the only
true standard by which moral character can
be formed.
“Fides” has called to his aid the opinion of
the late Chief Justice Marshal, but pardon me
Mr. Editor if I venture to submit to you an
opinion on two of “ Judge Carolus” epistles
on Temperance: chap. 11l sec. &c. he says,
every individual has not the legal right to dis
pose of his lawfully acquired property in any
quantity however small or large, and cites the
following instances to bear him out in the as
sertion. Suppose an individual had purchas
ed in one of our Northern States any number
of books, or pamphlets of such a nature as we
might expect to issue from the press of the
most fanatical Abolitionist and having thus
lawfully acquired them should bring them to
our own immediate neighbourhood, and dis
tribute them cither by sale or donation among
our servants, and that the said individual should
be discovered at this disposal of his property ;
do you think sir, that if alt the opinions which
‘Chief Justice Marshall’ever expressed on this
subject were bound to his carcase, they would
sarve him from the application, “of any quan
tity of tar and feuthers, to his unfortunate hide?
and to whom could he look for protection :
would pttblick opinion or the law, or ‘Fides’
himself interpose in his behalf ? No sir. Let us
suppose a butcher having in his possession, a
ny quantity of meat, which he knew to he un
wholesome and unfit for food, should actually
sell any portion of it, and the circumstance
should be discovered, would he not be repre
hensible by the law. And that these things
areproperty, no one can dispute in as much as
their acquisition requires labour and capital,
I could mention other instances of the same
nature, hut I think these will be sufficient to
convince ‘Fides’ that he stands in his own light
on this subject.
If “Fides” is really opposed to the advocates
of Temperance, it would be well for him to
avoid putting words into the mouths of his op
ponents. If we adopt the principle, that men
shall not govern us, because they are apt to
abuse the power with which we invest them,
we should have to make laws on our own hook,
and what a pretty system of Legislation we
might expect. If too, as he gays, our desire
for objects, increase in a direct ratio with
the means adopted, to withhold us from them,
we may rationally infer that our indulgences
would exist in alike propoition, when we may
have attained them, and if “Fides” had ran
sacked his brain or reverted to the page of his
tory from the time in which ardent spirits were
first distilled, he could not have set up a more
powerful argument to prove, that the only
means, by which their evil tendency can be
effectually destroyed is the entiie discontinu
ance of their use.
One more trespass on your patience Mr.
Editor and I conclude, this would be advocate
of Temperance says, almost in the same breath
that our desires for objects exist in proportion
to Ike means adopted to withhold ns from them-,
and that iithe lieense law were repealed,grog
shops would spring up like •mushrooms: If
he can invent a more palpable contradiction
than this I will givchimboth sidesof the ques
tion to himself, he is erecting ltis walchtower
on so tottering a foundation that I fear the next
idle wind that may happen to blow—will
bring it Wt it’s proper level —the ground.

THE exercise of this Institution will be resumed

of all unnecessary anxiety, we assure them that in

be rendered ; and lhat prompt information shall be
given to relatives, when any reasonable ground of
apprehension exists.—Having full confidence oursel

Cotton Establishment.
An investment of $25,000
IS wanted from a company of five gentlemen
($3,000 each,) for the establishment of a cot
ton factory, on one of the most eligible situa
tions ill the Southern States, for health nnd
convenience, in the County of Mclntosh
(Georgia.) distance from Darien four miles,
on a bold salt Creek, lauding direct from the
sound of Doboy bar, witli a wide and open
view of the sea; forming a crescent. Said
Creek having a depth of water at a bluff lan
ding’ (where the location of said factory shall
be made,) of at least 14 feet waterin the
rear also of which is an excellent body of pine
timber furnishing the necessary fuel forastcam
Engine.
In the vicinity arc several saw mills, from
which can be got all the necessary materials,
in the progress of the buildings.—The site
also being land locked, offers a safe deposit for
lumber. The advantages of such ail establish
ment in the neighborhood is obvious. Thelo
cation being a perfectly healthy summer rc
trcat;-thc vicinity immediate to Darien, where
the choice and selection of cotton can be made,
or at Macon—with the advantages beside to
neigboriug planters in giving employment to
young female servants who can be profitably
employed in preparing the raw material, and
yarn for market. Investments of this nature,
have uniformly resulted profitably and safe in
the upper part of this State. The establish
ment in view will be the only one known on the
whole southern sea board. The sum of $11,500
being taken up, any number of gentlemen wish

reputation being fully sustained by the high charm

mistaking other prcpcralions which arc introduces?
as Tomato Medicines, for the true Tomato Pills.
As ungenerous and invidcous allusions to this metj

different preparation, called ‘Miles’Lxtruct ot Toma

long reposed in Phelps’ Tomato Pills,’it is prop./
for the proprietor to request the public to investigate
the source of these publications before they arc indu

An inquiry, for this purpose, made at Brunswick,
Ohio,where the proprietor of‘Miles Extract’ resideg
for a long time and commenced his *ptff Career,’ wilf
be sufficient to render harmless th-se uspersive msfn

I would suggest no further inquiry, and am satisfr
to risk the Compound Tomato Pilis upon their mer

be Tomato. While the effort to blend other prepi e
