Thorp, H 2 Ratification, - 83 No Ratification, - 74 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.

PHELPS’ Compound TOMATO PILLS. HAVING acquired an envirdedebritr as an An ’ li Dyspeptic and Anti Btlliotmenv t*y, and t!ii> reputation being fully sustained by the high charm ter of its testimonials, and the constantly increasing: demand for the medicine, it is only necessary for tin proprietor to continue the caution to the public ugiurtsJ mistaking other prcpcralions which arc introduces? as Tomato Medicines, for the true Tomato Pills. As ungenerous and invidcous allusions to this metj icine have been published by tlteprmiriytor o’fa Very different preparation, called ‘Miles’Lxtruct ot Toma to,’ evidently intended to Impair (fre roßfidcnee s-v 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 ced to credit their truth nnd honesty. WeLz 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 uations. Having no desire to injure ‘Miles’ Extract I would suggest no further inquiry, and am satisfr to risk the Compound Tomato Pilis upon their mer its in competition to any preparation purporting ro be Tomato. While the effort to blend other prepi e rations to the true Tomato Pills are continued, per sons wishing the genuine mvdicine should be parti.- ular to notice that they bear the signature of the p£.c, prietor, G.
