4 T!w jestitinny ol a witness was lately rejected in Connecticut, after he had been sworn, and had testified, on the ground of bis being an Atheist, and not believing .n a future state ofexistenc#. The Grand Jury of Hall County, Geo. have presented as a grievance, ‘‘the privi lege taken (and apparently connived at by the genetal government) by the inhabit ants of the Cherokee Nation, in renting ,nnd leasing the lands of said Nation to the white inhabitants of the States, which we the Grand Jury) believe to belong to this ” (Georgia,) and call the attention ; of the Legislature to this subject. So, the , Cherokee war is begun before the Creek U ended. We always expected and be lieved that wo should have more trouble with the Cherokees than we have ever with their neighbors. It is folly for us to expect, that they will sell their lands | at any price. They have already refused, J positively, and we believe the late ortrani- ; nation of their government has thrown ad- j ditional obstacles in the way of such an j event. Among others, their late constitu tion is said to recognize the right of inai- 1 vidual properly in the soil, and has made , provision for parceling out the whole ter ritory to individuals in fee simple. Each j 'individual will, therefore, in future main tain the same right to his land that he has ! ill wa vs done to his horse or his gun. But j this is a delicate subject, and one which requires a cool head and a just hand for its jinal adjustment. Col. Howard, who died lately at Balti more, was the highest living officer in rank in the continental army, extent La fayette. Gen. Sumter, who is still living was a m'litia officer, and never Ivtd a con tinental commission. There was frost at Raleigh, N. C. on ! the 17th, and at Georgetown, S. C. on the '18th. We have had two slight frosts the last two mornings. The enemies of Mr. Adatns, being foil— ed in their attempts to fix the charge of porrnption on Messrs. Adams and Clav, have changed the parties and have been at work on Mr. Webster. They charge Mr. Webster with having accepted a corrupt proposition from Mr. Adams be fore his election, to which it is alleged, h<* was opposed ; and the editor of the New-York Post, says, “he had been in possession of the facts a Ions* time* But v?ifortunately, these cleansers of theAuge- an stable of American politics referred to the Hon. John Bailey of Mass., as the bearer of the proposition. Mr. Bailey in his letter has pronounced't an “ unblush- , \nc falsehood.” The calumny was first pub lished in the Philadelphia Palladium, on the authority of “two nipmbers of Con gress.” It was published only three days before the Pennsylvania election,and was, no doubt, intended to bear on its result.— O, infamous !—But notwithstanding, the administration is still succeeding in the great majority of the counties whose re turns have been received. Present gain in Philadelphia and the counties heard from, for Mr, Adams over Gen. Jackson, 6,909. Between the 14th and 21st, 14 nersons died in Charleston; only two of \ellofr Fever—six whites. Many of our friends, from the similarity of style in Gen. Jackson’s letter to Carter "Beverley, and Mr. Eaton’s letter, insist ■that the latter must have written the Car ter Beverly letter, as. if the General could not write. Now one thing is certain— both friends and foes will admit, that the General knows how to make his mark. We have been constantly reading about Mr. Beverly’s abortion, Mr. Eaton’s a- bortion, Gen. Saunders’ abortion, &c.— If our great men have so many abortions, kittle great men, we are afraid, will be •scarce in future, Cuba is praying, according to a friend •of the N. Y. Enquirer, for the election of ■Gen. Jackson, that he may incorporate it -with our Union. Cotton— At Chet tw, S. C. to 10^. ..It Macon, 8.J. At Charleston, 9k to 11. New-York, 10 to 11 J. Shipped from Mobile, during the year ending Sept. 30 b, 1827, 89,779 bales. Some of our laughter-loving tenders inquire, “ Where are your anecdotes ?— You used to give us a column.” That was in the idle summer, when we had loom for them, and nothing else to do.— JThis is now no time for laughing : days •ire short—no room—look at the adver- -isements—they are more profitable than jokes—though it would be a good joke, if we get pay for all cf them—a sad joke, if we do not. The Cherokees, according to the Ili- wassean, did not meet the Commissioners tor making a treaty with them for their lands, at the time appointed. The com missioners, after waiting a few days, start ed home ; but shortly after leaving the Agency, received a message from, a few leading Cherokees, wlfcli induced them to return. Its purport is not known. Fire.—The Blacksmith’s Shops be- jpnging to the Penitentiary of Georgia, with if cnnriderabfe quantity of'seafiooed timber, were destroyed last week by' fire. The main building was endangered. The Governor was personally active in subdu- i ng the raging element. Loss $3000. 245 persons are said to have embraced religion and joined the church at a late Camp-Meeting in Newton county, Geo. Among the “.Stars” engaged for the Augusta Theatre, are Miss Clara Fisher, Messrs. De Camp, Hamblin, Burroughs, Roberts, and Forrest— he latter gentle man's engagement is not positive. Mr. Cooper is gone to Europe. The Corps Dramatique destined for this place, are now in Norfolk. Savings Bank.—We notice that the last half year'* report of a single savings bank in London, gives an aggregate ot de putes for that period of £283,230, 13s. One-third of which was bv females. In the last North American Review, p. 446, speaking of Mr. Clay’s efforts to procure the recognition of the Indepen- derice of South America, the Reviewer remarks that “ his speeches on this sub ject are among the most powertul and brilliant productions of his mind, and pas sages of them were read with enthusiasm at the head of the South American armies.” Firginui.-!—Many persons (says the Virginian,) seem to have forgotten the re sult of the last presidential election in Vir ginia; for their benefit we subjoin a state ment of the votes given for tho several candinates Crawford, 7542 Adams, 3058 Jackson, 2290 Clay, 1064 6-102 Majority for Crawford, 1140. The celebrated Race Mare Arid, was sold at auction, in Richmond, on the 16th inst. for $1600 She was bought by Mr. Wvnn. The celebrated horse Edipse, was sold at New-York, on the 11th inst. for $8050, and his vanquished competitor, Henry, for $4100. New-Jersey.—We have ascertained, says the Trenton True American of Sa turday, 13th inst. that there are a majority in favor of tho Administration in both houses of the Legislature. There will be a majority, if we are not greatly mistaken, of 17 at least in Joint Meeting. Buchanan's Statement.—A gentleman who is travelling about this state, getting subscribers to a new edniott of Eaton's / ife of Jackson, informs us 'hat Buchan an’s statement is a terrible damper to his business. Many' persons, he says, who had promised hint to subscribe, or given hint encouragement that they would do so, now decline altogether.— Kentucky Commentator. Expected Naval Action.—The brig Gulden Grove, a* New York, from New Orleans, reports that a heavy cannonading o f frnm four to five hundred guns, had a 'short time previous to her departure, been heard off Mobile. It was supposed that the Mexican and Spanish Squadrons had met at that place, and engaged in combat. No further particulars had been received. [From the New-York Enquirer.} She has finished her education."—Do you observe that young lady with a com pressed shape—an enormous French hat —a superabundance of chains, bracelets, crosses, golden hearts, &c. dec. mincing her steps through Broadway 1 "She has finished her education." Observe Miss Prissy with her hair tnpapilote, her slip pers sjip shod, her calico morning gown unhooked, her eyes half closed, and her mouth in the sulks, slide to the breakfast table at 9 o’clock. “She has finished her education." See tint young lady lol ling on 'he bed dc crying over a novel.— “ She has also finished her education."— Only mark the fine, bfdd, independent air " hicb Miss Dashaway puts on as she sails through the drawing rooms—a nod to one —a smile to another—Harry how de do, when do you marry? Bless us a quadrille; Bennett play “ Go to the devil and shake yourself.” “ Engaged sir, for the next six cotillions.” “ She has likewise finished her education." Observe that voting lady at (he piano, thrumming the march in the Freychutz and squalling out of all tune & harmony, unavoche, or“ Love was once a little boy.”—“ She has also finished her education." The fact is, that young ladies at the present day finish their education before they have actually commenced. They mistake tlie mere elementary and introduc tory pttrt of their education for the com mencement, when in fact, the commence ment may be dated from that period when mind and faculty develope themselves and embrace in a comprehensive manner, all the details and items of early instruction, giving to each, force, stability and finish. If is before the flower puts forth its ge nial buds, that it is taken from the parent stalk, and though admired and carresed for a tune, it soon withers. The Liverpool Albion, in noticing this subject remarks— “ T* eie is a lady, of whom I have some knowledge,that‘finished her education.’— bv leaving peculiary good advantages at an early age. She is now a wife and the mother of six children. She plays well upon the piano—sings sweetly—dances elegantly—is very polite, &c.—But her husband must, and actually does, put all the children to bed, andt takes care of them through the night ; and as to her table, the bread is execrable, to one who has visited his grandmother’s pantry—and her coffee—O / her coffee !—it would cost her her head, if the very scent ot it leached the Grand Turk’s palace—and yet the lady lias 'finished her education.’* TiTE ELM TREE. We are informed it is m contemplation to erect a stone, or some l#ting memorial, with suitable inscription, upon the spot upon which |he“ Great Elm” stood.— Our readers are aware we allude to the venerable elm tree under which the impor tant treaty between William Penn and the Indians was held, in 1682 The plan commemorating this interesting event, up on the spot where the transaction took place, is happily conceived.—Penn. Gaz. “The truth strikes upon the ear, when men are sobered bv the labours of the day, when no mortal eve sees them, aDd when the twilight, and the silence, and the lone liness combine in causing it to make a deep impression.” Grand Garden.—A new place of sum mer’s recreation, is, we understand, to he opened, early in the next season, in the vi cinity of the metropolis. It is to be got up after the fashion of Vauxhall Garden, that famous and delightful resort for the Londoneis—and several wealthy and pub lic-spirited individuals, have, we are told, formed themselves into a company for the purpose of carrying the project into execu tion. The walks or promenades, are to belaid out in the most extensive and taste ful style—with here and there, elegant re cesses for the accommodation of private parties ; while the amusements will con sist of grand concerts of vocal and instru mental murre, and splendid fireworks and illuminations.
