DARIEN AND STi MARYS LINE OF STAGES. , , Mb. Editor: —Allot! me through the medi- I of your journal, to <all the aiietiii n ofthe I public, to Ik'new stags route between this I place and Sr Marys, established by Major Blue. Induced to try this route, I was agreeably dis appointed, as I found the accommodations far superior to any interior, stage route in this section. The stage was” truly elegant uml comfortable—the horses good, and the driver very skilful and attentive. 1 hope the enter prising proprietor will receive the hearty stqj. port, as well as thanks, of ail travellcrs-for lie I certainly deserves it. An ogp Trav Win. L are pleased to learn that this line is now V* t-.loperation. The stag's and horses are oTlkltstkiw), and the divers skilful; and we have confidence llul the proprietor will make liislYue-v*.. -thy ofpwo ’ Miage. The advantages and accommodation . thus afforded the cjiizetisof St. Marys, and the j southern people generally, will unquestionably render this route the general thorough-fare for southern travellers to reach Savannah or Charleston. Heretofore the citizens of St. Marys, and in fact the whole section of the ■ south on the seaboard, have labored under many disadvantages in travelling north—and now that a good line of stages has been estab lished, we anticipate that it w ill be preferred to any other inode of conveyance. Forth* information of the public we will state that the 1 me of stages between Darien and Savannah, has changed hands, and we are told the present proprietors contemplate increasing the speed of this line. Independent of this line of stages, travellers desiring to go north, can find at all limes steamers departing from thiscity for Savannah. JUDGE CHARLTON’S POEMS. We have been politely furnished with a copy of this neat little volume of poetry, and have enjoyed a pleasant hour in its perusal, which has been doubly enhanced by the fact of its being the production of native genius. The volume contains some fugitive pieces of the late Dr. T. J. Charlton, (the brother of Judge C.) a gentleman in whose premature death the literature of our country lost one of its bright est ornaments, and lhginence of Medicate ‘ sustained a Material loss, f .fudge Charlton has tong and favorably PRaen known to the public as a polished writer his contributions to the Knickerbocker sgazine have gained for him a high reputa tion. We earnestly recommend the work to the public, and feel confident that all who pur chase will be gratified with its perusal. A few copies are for sale at this office. Bellville City —A few days ago we endi t*d ait article relative to this new city, about King built, which we perceive by our ex , (Range, has attracted general attention. The ■eat natural advantages that this city posses fcs are too well known to be repeated by us i-and it must appear evident to all disinter ■ted persons, that in the course of a very ■tort time, she will outstrip, both in point ■ commerce ana population, many other pla- Jes, South of the Potomac. The following ■rude we clip from the Brunswick Advocate, I paper conducted with much ability, and from t gentlemanly tone merits, and we doubt not ceives, a very liberal patronage : M ‘ Our worthy neighborof the “Herald” over the river, we observe has recently struck a new vein. He has discovered that a charter ■as obtained at the recent session of the Le ■siature to connect the waters of the Sapelo ip' l Alatamaha Rivers by a canal or rail road, ||>d has already commenced building up a commercial city at the former point, which is to be known by the beautiful name of “Bell kide,” probably so called in honor of our wor- Jpy friend. A glowing description is given of the immense benefits to be derived by the I new speculation, and also the large amount of jßDduce which is to be annually transported tef this “London of America,” as soon as the project is carried into effect. —This all looks very well on paper ; but brother Bell will find totyfc making an up-hill business before he gets f gh, or we arenoprophet. Come. Come, Bhf.f'Herald,” dont annihilate us Brunsvvick etjfn such a hurry if you please—if we are not going ahead as fast as we might be, we are ■ least “holding our own.’! WWe have not the inclination to an j Jpdlate Brunswick—but on the contrary shall MB’ ays be pleased to hear of her prosperity; ®d it is a gratification to learn that our neigh ifeitir of the Advocate is “holding his own.” If irech is really the case, and we have every rea son to believe it, he has better luck in these “piping times” than the generality of folks— for we mu* confess that others “hold ourown.’ But this has nothing to do with the new city in question, and time we think will verify all we have said upon the subject. With the best wishes for our Southern neighbors, w e cannot resist tlvj belief, that they vetF ere long see theijk brigheet hopes eclipses by the embryo city of Bellville. Tub Rheumatism.—Kind thou never been afflicted with the rheumatism 11 If thou hast not—and methinks thou art but too happy in thine ability to negative the query—then, though thou hast escaped one of the most annoylag vexatious, and time endur- ] ing ills to which our corporeal scrap of de praved humanity is subject; thongs thou hast : escaped the uncoveted delights of the sleep-dc- J J served pillow, and the joyless day, and number less and nameless painful and pangful (ex- j cuse the term) tales from incontinently gar rulous and rebellious nerves; yet hast thou lost (smile not, gentle reader,) some valuable les sons, both in morals and in physics. Thou art i yet but a child in the art of patient and uncom- f plaining forbearance under trials that, though the Stern philosophy of a Diogenes might ban ish moisture from thine eyes, wowld make thine agonized carcass weep incontinent at every pore. Thou hast read the book of Job and imagine, perhaps, that thou didst under stand it; and in the simplicity a’nd guileless ignoranre of thine heart, didst suppose that thou couldst relish us keenly as might, the beauty, depth, and pathos, of its peerless and poetic thoughts,—aye, thou mayest even have dreamed thyself imbued with a proper degree of sympathy for tbebeiug, whose sufferings an inspired pen hartnere attempted, through the imperfect veilic ,e of language, to shadow j forth. Li tme not offend tky comfortable self complacency, most delectable reiwlur, when 1 inform thee, that the whole is but a dream , j from which a single attack of rheumatism of j the right kind, would as effectually if not as suddenly awake thee, as a violent clap of thun der from a dinner nap. Thou hast yet but half learned the futility, the fulsome, and de ceitful flattery of worldly hopes. When thy prospects gather around them the golden halo of prmperity’s niiil summer, ILpe whispers in thine ear, “To-morrow shall be as this day;” and thy glad heart reveals on the frail assur ance, as though the present bore the unaltera ble seal of eternity. The vheumatism effectually cures a man of such lollie* If she leaves him no such ugree stife dreams to sleep upon, she leaves him no disagreeable and unexpected realities on which to awoke. Her constant, faithful, and alas ! too impressive admonition is, “Boast not thyself of to-morrow.” Thou hast observed the thermometer, and the striking and delicate accuracy with which it is made to indicate, by the subtle expansion of its fluid, the slightest variations in temper- j ature. Thou bast admired, perhaps, the inge nuity that could thus trace out the action of nature’s elements, and render them subservi ent to the wants of plan. All this may have occurred to thee, and more. But thou has never had the exciting consciousness of being thyself ideuticalUone of these weather-telling machines; ofbep( able, without even the wish, by the mere f<*ce of nervous energy, acting independent u'the will, to detect variations in a bona fide thermometer would not to’much as wink at; —nor, reader, canst thou tvc~ possess it, without first wine- 1 ing under thejjowerpfu chronic ache. When thou hast thus Seen converted into a tube and graduated scale, lb o * l wilt find thyself a won theraometer, as mlteb superior to the mercuri al one of Fahrenheit or Itemuur in delicacy, as sugared pastry loasaw-diist pudding. They I will not have to place thee in an exposed sit uation, or in the shide, to gather from thy ntechaftlUjt,'i.an-ini*hine a chronicle of tem perature.’ Swaddle thee as they may in wool- j lens, scorch thee as they msy, thou art still the same unvarying truth-teller. Not a frost-laden north-easter, or a beggarly cloud, can steal a march upon thee. Their approach is prognos ticated seemingly before they came. But we must stop, and cut our article short. Our old acquaintance the Ague has called, and whether we will or not, demands our atten tion. Important from Florida. Brilliant Vic tory ! —A late Tallahassee paper infotms us that the army of the U. S. has captured another Squaw ! No regulars were injured in the fight. We hope that Congress will vote a leather medal to the gallant officer in command. Services like this should not be overlooked by stern indifference or cold neglect. A monu ment of mud perhaps would not be inappropri ate to transmit this daring exploit to posterity, I and tell unborn generations of the deeds of herioism which have been performed in the “Land of Flowers.” Brunswick and Florida Rail-Road— The antual meeting of the Stockholders of this company was held at Thomasvilieonthc 13th, ult. The President of the Company, Hon. Tiro tas Butler Kino, made a report, in which he introduced many interesting statistical facts in relation to rail-roads, &c., which was well re ceived.

Remarks. —The average temperature of the ] month Ims been much higher than that of De ! eember although at limes it has been colder than any period during that month.—ln the early part of the present month the mercury stood at 22 at sunrise, ami ice was formed an inch in thickness, in exposed situations. Twice during the month it was 70,- which is about ordinary summer temperature for the interior of New-York. The last few days of the month were “delightfully agreeable,” and few would lie willing to exchange such a temperature for the 4 feel of snow which the Yorkers nrc en joying.

Another Slave Cajdure. —The British crui ser Skipjack captured and carried into Monte go liny, Jamaica, the Portuguese slaver Ulys .ses, with over five hundred slaves on board. Lunacy. —Gov. Porter, of Pennsylvania, lias vetoed the bill for the establishment of a Lunatic Asylum in that state. Suspected murder in New Orleans. —Jas. George Clark has been arrested in New Or leans, as the suspected murderer of Tapp.— | The murder was committed near the Red Ri ver Cult off. Tapp was the owner of aflat ; boat. More Steamboat Disasters. —The William Wallace, which had been hauled up at Now Orleans for repairs, slipped off the ways on thc4lh inst. She was valued at #B,OOO-, no insurance, The Alabamian Was recently sunk in the Mississippi, near Shreveport. A steam boat, sunk to her hurricane deck, was passed thirty miles below New Orleans on the sth” j inst. Daniel Sturgeon has been elected a Senator !of the U. S. from Pennsylvania. He received the unanimous support of the democratic members of the legislature. There is a report in the papers of the death of General Samuel Houston, of Texas, by a ; pistol-shot in a personal rencontre, i Small Pox. —This dreadful disease is exten i ding itself through the interior of Massachu setts. Several cases have recently occurred at Millbury. It lias been so prevalent in Bos ton that strict quarantine regulations are enfor ced against vessels from that place, arriving at Charleston. In the Northern Phila delphia, the disease is raging alarming extent. In some parts of Germany a gentleman gives his right arm to his intended before mar riage, and his left after it. The snow near Buffalo, N. Y. is forty inches deep on a level in the woods. | The Illinois Slate Bank, by a suspension of Specie Payments for more than sixty days, has forfeited its charter. The Legislature of j that State, now in session, is not expected to revive the charter. The New York Sun contains an advertise ment for the sale at the public pound, of one white hog, and one blue sow. Coining into | such close contact, chances are, they will a rnalgamate something of the striped order. Albert L. Merriam, of New York, indicted ; some time since for forgery, has after a long and protracted trial, been found guilty. Mer riarn was a respectable man, and appears at one | to have had the confidence of the public. A Boston boy was lately fined for collecting swill without a license!—and a man in the ! same city was taken up for selling cabbage on Sunday. “Let others seek for empty joys,” as the pickpocket said ven he came to the conclusion not to rob the editor. j Pennsylvania Legislature. —ln the Senate, on Wednesday, the 15th instant, a resolution, to refer the bill repealing the charter of the U. S. Bank, to the Judiciary Committee, with in structions to report the same, “ with such pro visions as may be necessary for the final clo sing of the concerns of said U. S. Bank,” pass ed by a vote of 17 to 3. 12 Senators present declining to vote on the question. British ship Scotland.— The Charleston Courier, says:—This ship cleared for Liver pool, with the largest cargo that ever went over this Barpviz : —2710 bales Cotton, weigh ing 900,000 lbs. and 740 bbls of Turpentine,and with all drawing but 14 1-2 feet water. We know not what to make of sur pre sent weather, unless we make fun of it. It is as changeable as a time in April—warm, cold, wet and dry half a dozen* times a ’ day. ( A proposition to publish a newspaper in Washington in December next ia described as “ a short rood to pecuniary ruin.” M The number ol deaths in Boston, last week by tho small pox, was twelve—making the ; whole number within the last few weeks seven ty-seven. The disease is also said to be quite prevalent \ at Nw Bedford. Washington, Jan. 23. War and rumors of war arc flying around the walls of the Capitol ! That strip of land so insignificant to twenty-five Stales of tho Union, yclept, the North Ka tern Boun dary, is apt to prove a tempi- of hatches flint four pounders, the value of which will exceed that of the whole disputed territory in less than a week ! Tho on dit is that the British Minister has demanded bis pasa j ports, in consequence of some contrc temps which occurcd Vctw cen him and the Secre tary of State. For my own part, I cannot think that Mr. Fox has acted so hastily in the matter, and lam disposed to lielieve that the story has grown to this, from being whispered about. Both these gentlemen appeared in perfect amity at Mr. Blair’s party on Tuesday* night, where appearan ces were decided anti-tvarlike. This morn ing, the subject was laid before the Sen | ate, and I must pronounce decidedly belli ! gorent the whole correspondence between Messrs. Forsyth and Fox, although if there is any blame in the matter it must rest on the Governor of New Brunswick who has placed British troops on the lands claimed by Maine, and retains thon’i there, notwith standing the agreement entered into bc -Itw een the parties. 1 deem it hardly neces sary to state that Mr. Forsyth has acted in this matter as becomes the honor and inte grity of our common country, without re gard to sectional prejudices, ami his course even thus lur has gained him a host of friends.

JlllIL ! r ‘ ‘ ‘ v ’ -•:** ‘or- ■ ■Ytllin'S’ D’ c 3i Obituary. I Died, at Walnut Grove, Wayne county, on the 18lh ult. after a brief illness, Miss Sarah A. Hkown, in the 24th year of her age. In the death of thia interesting young laejy/ihe circle of her relatives and friends h ive sustained on irreparable loss. Many are they who will deplore and mourn her death—for the young flower just ri pening to maturity, has been cut off from time, by the cold hand of unrelenting death. Thus, alas! perish the young in tho spring time of life, eje the summer sun throws around them its cheering influence But we will not eulogise her—her eulogy is in ltie heueu of those who knew her best, of her family, acquaintnneesaud friends. Enshrined in the affections of those who loved her, the tear of sorrow will long be shed “o’er the green turf” that covers her remains ; and long aft er these, remains will have mouldered into dust, she will still be deplored by those to whom she was so dear. Death appeared to her not arrayed ns the king of terrors, but as the kind hand which was to lend her to bathein the ocean of eternal love; to drink ofthe foun tain of eternal life, and enjoy those delights which abound at God’s right hand forever. 1 he grave appeared not to her ns a gloomy den of destruction, but n, a short and shady avenue, to immortal mansions, where her weary spirit should be secured from the ills ottif,. ‘beneath the shade of that treo whose leaves are sot the healing ofthe na tions. But we will not murmur av the, act of Provi dence—His wisdom hits willed it. Altho’she has closed her eyes on all things earthly, we M assured that her spotless spirit has winged its flight u, the presence of it’s God.
