2 to ud obscure inn, called “The Three Swans," twelve or fifteen miles on the road towards New-York. It was about nine o'clock of the fame evening, that a carriage, driving ra pidly past the aforementioned ian, and wheeling into the stable yard, stopped in the rear of the building ; •and Squire Wild ling, who had been waiting its arrival, rushed to the door of the vehicle, and endeavoring to open it, began to speak, in a soo thing tone, to its inmate : “Mi stress of nay soul!” he cried,! as he fumbled at the handle of the door, "forgive the rashness I have been guilty of. ami believe me, that tnlhmg but lire ardent passion that boms within mv bosom, could have' caused me to gsvc you a moment's eneas-ifs ss.—~g WM ino latch 1 lie in »» lor**')—‘ Xic hie— •rtit kfw.

Such a promise was ea sily made, but not so easily complied with ; and not many weeks had gone by; whin Tom’s ludicrous mistake became the common theme of con versation and laughter, in that part of the country. On a pleasant evening, in the ear ly part of November, nearly two months after this affair tinspired, a- t' lliam and Sally, now. joined in marriage, were walking arm and arm, through a grassy lane, iutend ingto ramble down to their old tryst jog-placfc, a servant in livery rode up to them, and, respectfully touching hr- bat, inquired if he addressed him self to Mr. William Thornton. On being answered in the affirmative, he Landed him a letter. It ran thus : Nfw-Youk, Oct. 2, IG2O.

The Mercury of the same date, conducted by official men, announces another project, which equally with the tyrannical exercise of the prero gative will annihilate our constitu -1 .ion.

These arc the projects announced in an official paper. Lot the Coun try not disregard them; last session th ir practice commenced. Now if the country is not roused by those official declarations, it is the basest, the vilest Country on the Globe—it is below Naples or Spain in wisdom or spirit But what is to be done? All that the Constitution and the Eaws allow, while the Constitution and the Laws exist.

The Fair. —Though we pique our selves on having reached those years when gewgaws lose some of their val ue everrio the most eager spirit, our philosophy was fairly upset yes terday by the brilliant display of tri fles to which the plastic hands of our ladies had lent elegance and grace The fragile fans, the transparent screens; the pincushions fit to be touched only by tbc fair hands that made them; card racks enveloped ii* and op borne on the wings ot butterflies, resplendent as the far (aired blue ones ofCachemire; pen wipers that we would no more think ot soiling with our grev-goose quill, than of wiping it on the hem of a lady’s robe; music, flowers, and od ours; flower vusses of-feathers, bask ets of clirvstals, slippers small enough for Cinderella, or easy enough to soothe ttic uneasiness of the most arthritic toe;’’ all, even to the prices, were of the highest order, and, by the Midas touch ofthe fair venders, were in the course of the morning transmuted into gold.

Y. ilnqvirer. Statesman MONDAY MAY 7, 1827. Our Governor. —We are now happily able to declare positively, that Col. Duncan G. Campbell will be a candidate fur the office of GOVERNOR of GEORGIA, at the next Election. In common with the great mass of the peo ple of this State, it gratifies us not a little to perceive tlmt, by this announcement, we now have, with the will, an opportunity, of invest ing that long abused office with tiiu people’s choice. The moral power which is to bring this about, is invincible. Justice, Grati ri'DE, and acknowledged merit, form its attributes. The deep-working energy of their influence upon the elective franchise ofthe freemen of Georgia, will, we trust, be strong united, and irresistible. The auspicious mo ment has arrived when the friends of social or der, religion and liberty, may once again moor thcirpolitical ark, so long “tempest-toss ed,” under the shadow of tiieir own vine.— With the dawn of prospects so propitious— of results so triumphant, let every man a wake, and approve himself the friend ofa Milder Administration. W’e have admired at the facility with which some men can shift their principles; and what is still more admirable, these changlings manifest as much indifference of public opin ion, as a gentleman would in changing his ri ding dress, for one more suitable for the draw ing room. When men can shift their princi ples as-easy as they change their garments— when they condemn tomorrow what they ad vocated to-day, and the day after caress and applaud what they scorned and villified yes terday—such men we believe arc dangerous in society—they are ripe for intrigue, and prepared for any scene of corruption which chance may throw in Iheir way. W’e justify ourselves in making these remarks, and in applying them to some of our citizens, and to some of our public presses, by stating the facts, that since 1815, these men and these presses have been the loudest, and most un wearied, in condemning the Ilmtfcrd Con tention as a traitrous assemblage, the tendency of which was destructive to the happiness and union of our country W’e arc not the de fenders of this celebrated convention, but we would ask, bow stands it in comparison v ith some of the leading features ofthe ad minis tration of his Excellency, G. M. Troup 7 W’e hardly ne*d advert to his Excellency’s be seeching appeal to the citizens of Georgia, *to stand by their arms ” —for what reason were the citizens besought to stand by their arms 7 to repel invasion, or suppress insur rection ? No, it was to resist the authority •delegated by the States in the F. derul com pact to the General Government. Neither noed we advert to the “ Report ofthe Commit tee on the state ofthe Republic,” proposing a division of the States by observing “ that the hour is cane, or is rapidly approaching, when the States from Virginia to Georgia, from Mis souri to Louisiana, must confederate, and as one man, say to the Union, tee will no longer submit our retained rights to the snivelling in sinuations o, bad men on the four of Congress. Our constitutional rights to the dark and strain ed const ructions of designing men upon judicial Benches." —neith r need ivc advert to the fact, that in 1827, the sixth and seventh di visions of Georgia Militia were marshalled, and held in momentary readiness for the field, and the munitions of War placed in con venient situations for their use. It may be asked for what purpose these divisions of Mili tia were ordered to be held in readiness, to suppres insnrrection, or repel invasion ? We answer No—but to resist the execution of the laws of the United States. It may also be usked what course was pursued by those per sons and those presses on this ccasion, which 60 often cried out treason to the Hartford Convention, were they alarmed at these trea sonable proceedings, said they aught against them 1 We answer no, they were the unwea ried advocates of the whole plan. In 182-1, these changeable men and chang ing presses, poured forth a torrent of abuse on Gcncrul Andrew Jackson : they said he was a “yuibbter," —that he used “finesse," —that “ political principles were of no consideration with him,’” —that “ he was arrayed against the Southern States," —thut “his mind was weak, violent in his temper," and that this weakness and violence “influenced him to begin a work of tyranny and injustice," —he was represent ed us being “ incompetent to eonipi ehtud tin meaning of the plaint' ~o rds," —that his elec tion would “jeopardize the free institutions of o ur country," —he was accused of threatening to maim several members of Congress by ‘‘cut. Hitg off their ears," —hi was said to he “ en tirely devoted to an oppressive system of taxa tion,"- that “ his supporters were enti-repub licans," —be was accused of “ always abusing the authority vested in. him." —he was called “ a:i intemperate chi*jlain, pleased with the fa cilities of paver." When these reviler.t had “exhausted the argument,” and emptied their store-house of epithets to cap the clim.ix, and fix eternal stigina on the man of w hom Joffer, son said “ Honor and gratitude to the MAN WHO HAS TILLED THE MEASURE OF ills codntrt’s glory,” they published the follow ing: “We now give what is conclusive—Gen.

Ths arrival of Van Buren in Virginia is thus noticed. “The little Dutchman and his tail, arc speedily expected in this quarter, from his flying trip to South Carolina and Geor gia.” It is supposed be has got matters well nigh completed to make a President for tlic people —such an uwff too, as he can warrant; and should there be any doubt or difficulty in the case, we verrily believe he would sooner serve himself, than that is country and friends should be dettitute. The Richmond Whig, in remarking upon th* influence which New York is seeking to wield in the political contest for the next Pre sidency observes that “To detach her from Adams, Clinton is to be brought into the field at the eleventh hour, and that if tie should be brought forward and supported by his State, the almost necessary effect would be to defeat the election by the people—when the House of Representatives having the game in their own hands, might olect Clinton or Jackson, as they might he prompted.” Now our opinion may not be worth much, yet we are fully per suaded that Dewit Clinton's influence will ra ther aid, than oppose the General’s election 1 MAPS.—The delay which has attended the receipt of the Maps of the Western Teriitory, as advertised, is unaccountable, as it was un locked for.

ARGUMENT Reflections on Society continued— Religion and Government revoluUonable by science —Native grandeur and beauty ofr* )igion— degraded only in the hands of man— her prospects of a belter day—indicated in the structure of mind, in that of inorganic Na ture-universal propensity of man to wor ship a Deity—departure from—Thomas ton—a beautiful water-fall—the | arK j sleep—Union of Music, love and tire. But the light .of the understanding is on the advance—a morning down upon the human soul, and it is reasonable the day will come, when science arrayed in her proper omnip. otencc will revolutionise the world demolish the seats of its justice, and the code of its laws—fling hack into nonentity all the forms and fashions of its religion, which now prevail and bury in one lone tomb, the crimes and abuses of Kings, and the letters and mis ries ofthe subjected. Religion honored and honorable in Heaven, —bowing her gracehl form continually at the foot ol (| le throne ofthe great Uncreated,—re. ceivmg his benignant smile, can. not, it is impossible, cannot always worry it out in the ‘filthy shred’s and dishabille of this world, —yielding to the whims and pr judices ot me.— moulding herself to tl.eir transient forms,—kneeling abjectly and sun plicalivcly at thc*ir ‘brief authority.’ O ! ‘tis impossible, earth was not made for her knee, but Heaven'. —And yet she bows to its prescriptions, cringes to its power, wears the dress of its Milliners, galants, leads in tbc front of its honors, coquets its time, dances with its revolutions plays up to its pumps;—‘tis impossible, her soveriguty destined to empire must be born. The capaciousness and re sources of our globe, and the envel oping firmament bespeak it; such prodigious effects of creative ener gy cannot always lie in waste, disuse, abuse, but must participate in the general interest, and active economy of the Universe. Earth’s religion h in disproportion to the grandeur and majesty of earth’s workmanship Laboring under a desperate cacopho nia she stutters in pronouncing lo her Creator, the hallelujah, she studs up to salute Ins throne is too feeble to be hoard amid (hose heautiiu! symphonies, which rise simultaneous ly clear and shrill and converge then from all her sisters orbited in the musical astral sphere—-from those, which coast the frontier ot nature, to those, which move next the Cheru bim, against which echoes perpetual* ly their congregated harmony Must not all nature respond (o flic Creator’s perfections, and in his so cial conversation, send up a voice to meet his voice. Science must dig her ivay through the blue trails of fie heavens, and Man’s immortality, dim ly seen in reason’# argument; must pour fresh through, to give earth air full measure of consonant harmony. The thing is possible—the whole universe moves, gravitates round one central point, and in conlinuaM fort directs all its energies there,— Man is a part, and must do the same. Reason must be sceptered over pas sion, and the Deity, a fossil must he dug up out of the grave, where past religions had buried him and brought in sight ol Man, and he will worship, -—worship will be the rushing irres istable impulse of his soul, ior it is the cement, which unites all created intelligence, and fastens it to the Creator’s bosom. I would not he understood to say all existing religious are lalse; iar, far from il, but that they could be better, that nature’s whole frame be speaks and indicates it. Religion spontaneously gushes from M-ids heart, as the fountains from the earth, and accordingly as his understanding is enlightened, be worships a vissible or an invissihle Deity. The powers of his mind proper!/ •infolded, and two public institution* would be all lie requi rs a Church and a seminary, in Loth ol which bo would have a deep interc-t.
