The late Governor Eustis, who died at
i Boston on Sunday week, in the 75th year of
i his age, had been in public life for half a cen
tury, commencing his career at Cambridge,
in 1775, as a surgeon in the American army.
In this capacity lie served during the whole
j war, and acquired an influence in the army
I beyond any man in the country similarly sit
j nated. In 1787 he was appointed surgeon-
General to Lincol’s forces, raised to sup
press Shay’s insurrection, and was surgeon,
adviser, and warrior, during the campaign.
, Since the adoption of the Federal Const itu
| tion, he has been generally employed in pub
-1 lie life. He has represented Boston in the le
gislature of Massachusetts,for several years;
I then was sent to Congress from the district
1 of Suffolk—has been Secretary at war, For
eign Minister, Representative of Norfolk.and
’ has been twice elected to the office in which
! he died, Governor of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
The worthy Governor was distinguished
for frankness of disposition and decision of
character. In'the staff', he discovered the
spirit of a soldier, and never was satisfied
with the duties of private life. His acts in
his high office as a Governor have been mar-
I ked with no violence of character, but in all
i cases he has heard patiently, and decided
i fearlessly. The duties of chief Magistrate
| now devolve on the Lieutenant Governor
i Marcus Morton, a gentleman in the prime of
: life, a man enlightened, courteous, cautious
independent and eminently acquainted with
every form of office. The heroes of the re
volution are falling around us, as the last
leaves of the tree in the autumnal blast.—

the following disposition of his property.
To the Pennsylvania Hospital, one thou
sand dollars.
To the Northern nispensaiy, one thousand
dollars
To the Southern Dispensary, one thousand
dollars.
To the Pennsylvania Institution for the
Deaf and Dumb, one thousand dollars.
To the German Society, two thousand dol

For the relief of superanuated preach
ers, their widows, and missionaries and their
widows, belongingto the Brethrens* Church,
six thousand dollars.
To the Sociesy for propagating the Gos
pel among the Heathen, twenty thousand
dollars. This constitutes a fund the inter
est of which is to be applied by the society
for the purpose of educating pious young
men at Nazareth Hall, for the Gospel Minis
try.
The residue of his estate, valued at more
than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars, is be
queathed to the said society for propagating
the Gospel among the Heathen, ar.J to be
appropriated from time to time, as the soci

Mr. Haga, who had no patrimonial estate,
acquired his large fortune, by industry and
economy. Throughout life be sustained the
character of a good Man, (we use the word
emphatically,) and did not wait till the hour
of death to become charitable. For his
connections, both in this country and in Ger
many, he made provisions, while he was in
the enjoyment of health. His donations for
the relief of the poor, and to public institu
tions where many and munificent. When
the brethren in Philadelphia, determined a
few years ago to rebuild their church, he
gave them Jive thousand dollars,- and those
who were best acquainted with him, say, that
from the time of Mrs. Haga’s deatli to the
period of his own dissolution, he expended in
charity more than one hundred thousand dol
lars.—Philadelphia Gazette.
Extract of a letter from Capt. Rose, of the ship
Shenandoah to a gentleman of Alexandra
dated Ntno Diep, Dec. 11 1824.
“1 hav*e made one attempt to beat out, but
before I got to sea it came on to blow heavy,
and 1 had to return and anchor in the Texel
Roads, where 1 was exposed to a very heavy
gale, and as the Roads are not considered
safe at this seasoff, and there being no other
vessel with me, as soon as the gale, allowed
me to purchase my anchors, I returned into
the New Diep. I occupy a birth near the en
trance of the Diep, which will enable me to
be the first vessel out when the wind be
comes favorable.-
There is now in the new Diep more than
one hundred sail of shipping ready for sea,
some of them have been wind bound eighty
days—among the number are the following
Americans: —Margret, Dromo, Betsey, Es
sex, and Charles and Henry,—the latter ship
has been ready for sea since early in Octo
ber. When the wind changes to the east
ward, it will take three days for all the ves
sels to get out of the Diep. The opiniorj is
on the second or third day of the east wind,
the New Diet will be blocked up with ice,
| should this be the ease, 1 am fearful, most of
. the Americans will be detained, as they all
j except the Shenandoah, lie high up the Diep.
’ The Amsterdam papers state that -there lias
j been 10,000 lives lost by shipwreck this sea
i son, on the cuast, of England and Holland.”

TUESDAY, MARCH 8.
It being ascertained that Gen. Lafatette
is to be in Savannah on the 20th of the pre
sent month, an application made to
Judge Wayne,by all the members of the
Bar in Savannah for the adjournment the
courts of Camden, Glynn,Wayne, and \l‘-
Intosh.to give to the Bar and such citizens in
those counties as may wish to visit Savannah,
on the occasion, an opportunity to pay their
respects to the Guest of the Nation —His
Honor has been pleased to direct the Clerks
of the Court to adjourn Camden to the
28th^March, Wayne to the Ist April,Glvnn to
the 4th April, and M'lntosh to the 6th of the
month being two days after the regular term.
To the Editor of the Darien Gazette.
SiA—The respect l have for Agricultu
ral Societies in general, and particularly the
one formed ir. Darien, by the counties of
Camden, Wayne, Glynn, M'lntosh, Liberty,
ancf Bryan, induces me to communicate my
feeble ideas, so far as my experience has in
formed me, on the culture of Rice. Cotton,
and Sugar Cane; though I must say it is next
to useless for one man to attempt to tell ano
ther how to plant: theory alone, never made
a good planter, nothing but persevering ex
perience can make a planter; obstinate self
conceit most generally does away the use of
advice; and it is strange to tell, that it is ve
ry rare that any man who reasons well on
planting ever was a good planter; the best
reason which l can give for it is, that every
man’s head can hold so much, and those that
are filled with theory, have no room for sim
ple experience oi common sense.
On the subject of Rice planting, to make
the most rice per acre in tide swamp, the
land must be in the best order and free from
volunteer rice; as to the number of rows to
the task, it is of very little moment, whether
70 or 120; plant the best seeH free from red
rice, about, eight quarts to the tak, about
the 15th of March, or so near that time as to
be a little before the full or change of the
moon, cover it lightly, and flow it for a few
days, the higher she better, so as to carry
off'the trash from the field; when the rice
comes up so that you can see the rows regu
lar, hoe it, grass or no grass, chop it through,
if you find places* that have not come up well,
let it alone, when the rice is from six to ten
inches high, hoe it deep, turn the ground
between the rows, and pick the grass from
among the Rice; and in all places where the
rice has not come up regular, take rice of the
same size and transplant out, (never re-plant
seed, for it will not get ripe regular; nor
take rice from the barn-yard as customary)
plant a small patch of the best of seed for the
purpose; cut oft’ the tops and transplant it
out, each plant about four inches asunder,
and then flow it immediately (being the first
flowing) the length of time to keep the wa
ter on, is only known by experience the
difference of soils, the order that it is in, the
state of the atmosphere, whether cool, warm,
wet or dry; makes such changes that nothing
but experience can be a true guide. But
in all cases to make the most rice per acre,
you must never attempt to kill grass by wa
ter; or hoe the grass after the rice begins to
joint or form a stem: if any grass, pick it out:
by water culture a man may scramble and
make more Rice to the working hand for the
first two years, but before the end of five
years he will find he has come to a half crop
by that culture: to free your lancLfrom vol
unteer Rice and water-grass, plant it every
third year in cotton or sugar-cane, it will be
preferable to a ploughing. To prevent Rice
from lodging, in case it inclines to be flaggy
when twelve to eight inches high, crop it
within four or five inches of the ground:
there are other reasons for cropping, besides
checking the growth, it will bring up the
tillers more regular, and the length of the
ears and the regularity of its ripening will be
more uniform; and in case rice appears flag
gy and inclines to lodge after the first crop
ping, watch the opportunity when the ear is
formed within its leaves and a little before it
makes its appearance, you can cut off all the
top leaves without touching the ear: those
leaves aid much in weighing down and lodg
ing the stock when loaded with dew or fine
rain, and in addition to a preventative from
lodging, it saves a great weight to be brought
out of the field in time of harvest. Another
preventative from lodgingis to flow your land
as near the heads of the rice as possible, and if
it should then lodge it will lodge on the wa
ter, then draw the water off, and the rice
heads will not touch the groun'd, by that
means you may save the most of it.
On the subject of Cotton planting, I know
of no better general rule than to make the
beds about fivefeetapart in all kinds of land,
and thin it according to its growth, making
the beds the same size in either wet or dry
land, and them very low and broad, if your
land is wet, drain it, if dry. you want broad
beds to vetain moisture. To prepare a cot
ton bed, turn the ground where the bed is
to be made, about four inches deep and three ‘
feet broad—and when the bed is made, let it
be about 3$ feet broad on top, and the alley j
above 18 inches, and from 9 to 10 inchesdeep I
—then you will have a drain between every !
bed from 7 to 8 inches below the seed, and
the seed planted a little below the natural
surface of the earth, as the ground on an av-,
erage will not be raised quite two inches. — j
There is a great saving in this kind of bed
ding, it is done when you have idle time—
when you are pushed in grass, you have no
time to dig up hard groflnd to form your
beds—by that and almost that alone, planters
may keep clear of grass, and never be under |
the necessity of hoeing the earth from the
cotton, which at all times is an injury.
The time to plant cotton varies much, ow
ing to soil and seasons, early planting is saf- j
est against gales, caterpillars, late planting, ;
and good seasons makes the largest crops on !
such lands as 1 have planted. I never liked
eaTy planting, as 1 never wished to see the
cotton up until the first of April, but make it
a rule to begin about the 17th and the last of
March; as to thinning of cotton, begin early
and t bin till late,a good rule is never to let the
leaves of two plants touch each other until
you have done thiffiiing—and that ought to
be after it begins to blossom, when your cot
ton is large enough quit lioing, and if it in
clines to be rank, top it at four or five feet
high.
On the subject of Sugar Cane, although a
plant but little known in this country, in my
judgment it bids fair for a great s'aple arti
cle. It sustains the gales and high tides that
destroy both Rice and Cotton—it is a plant
that most happily comes in as part of a plan
ters crop—it is planted before rice or cotton,
and harvested after the Rice crop, alkl after
the great bulk of the Cotton comes in, and
ivhen all the able hands are at the Cane har
vest, the weaker ones are completing the cot
ton harvest. Os all the Sugar Cane that has
yet been introduced into the country, the
Riband Cane has the preference—it is soon
er ripe, it is more hardy to stand the winter,
and is quite as sweet as anv cane that has yet
been tried. Sugar making is hard work,
but as negroes are fond of sweet, follow the
rule of never muzzling the ox that treadeth
out the corn, it will go on cheerfully, and
every day the works are in operation, you
see wealth and prosperity. A planter who
plants Rice, Cotton, and Sugar Cane, can
plant five acres to the hand, and harvest the
whole in good season, and at common pri
ces, can make one acre ofcane produce about
twice as much as any acre of Rice or Cotton.
On the subject of preparing Rice, Cotton,
and Sugar for market, will require another
chapter: these are Hints, lo rouse the agri
cultural interest to join and support an Agri
cultural Society, and by that means may
learn to improve the culture of our soil, and
add to our income and comfort from one
third to one half the advantage of what we
have heretofore been blessed with.
No man ought to be so self conceited as
to think he cannot be taught more than
he knows; no man can deny that if a com
pany of planters meet together and inter
change ideas on planting but what will go
home more enlightened than when they met:
if there is such a man, I pronounce him a
poor planter.
1 will ask a question. What is the cause
that ten planters all on similar land, all
working equally industriously, half of whom
make good crops, and the other half poor
crops? I will answer it myself. It is be
cause they do not meet and exchange tiled
ideas, friendly aud kindly together.
Before a man can become a good planter,
he ought to divest himself of self conceit: a
mail that has obtained his planting knowl
edge from reading has more chaff than grain.
What can a man learn from reading a trea
tise on the culture of Rice in the kingdom of
Ava; Cotton on the Island of Cypress, or Su
gar Cane on the Island of Jamaica? When it
is very doubtful if tiie best planter on Savan
nah river can, the first year, make a good
crop on the Alatamaha.
Soil, seed and climate all change, there
fore it is necessary that all practical planters
in the same latitude should meet together
and compare notes, and by that means you
may all become opulgnt and prosperous
planters.. Todo this, it will be necessary to
make use of a little Oil of Common Sense, so
far as to do away parti’ politics and self-con
ceit.
It is reported that people complain of hard
times in this part of the country: if that be
true, thereisa greater cause for periodical
meetings than that produced by the gale and
short crops of last year, but as the case may
be, if it should so happen, that this meets the
eye of any one who views the prospect be
fore him as despairing and doubtful, please
listen to a simple case. Quit party politics
and strife, join hand in hand like brothers, be
brothers, let reason be your guide, give ad
vice, receive advice, help one another, and
you will soon see the glow of prosperity
over the face of the earth.

The Hamburg Bank. —An alarming notice
has issued forth from this important Institu

is himself President: Director and Company of
his mighty Paper Mill, not to receive on depo.
site at his said paper mill the bills of the
Banks of the State of Georgia and Darien !—
A little reflection, one would have supposed,
might have induced the stadtholder to have
spared hflnselfthe trouble of making such a
proclamation; for whoever may venture to
trust him for or -with any amount, however
