AUGUSTA. We owe the reception of the Savannah Georgian of Tuesday tat to the polite- nets of Capt. Wray, of the Steam Packet Carolina. VVhv can not the mails be sent by the packets which so regularly and so rapidly ply between Savannah and Augus ta ? Or if they must be continued by laud, is not a daily mail to Savannah of 1oorc importance to us than one to Mil- iedgeville 1 Georgia is asleep on the sub ject of her interests iu this quarter. The Governor, in obedience to an act pf the last Legislature, has extended by proclamation the criminal jurisdiction of this State over that part of the Cherokee Lands lying within the limits of Georgia. Weltave received the Jacksonian, pub lished at McDonnoueh, Henry County Geo. by Samuel W. Minbr. It will be some recommendation to the friends of General Jackson to know that the publish er of the above paper was the first who nominated him for the Presidency of the United States. WAfiHXNOTON, «*• ^ At length the Rouse of Representatives has got clear of the undefined debate in which it became unexpectedly engaged upon the motion of Mr. Chiltov, of Kentucky ; and, as might have been an ticipated, notwithstanding all the debate upon them, Resolutions, so modified, how ever, as to bear little resemblance to their original form, have passed unanimously. The opponents of the Administration desired the inquiry, and its friends have seconded their wishes. The contest seems to have been who should be most in favor of it, rather than upon any other point. The debate has been throughout some what ptquan*, at its close, became rather tumultuous and disorderly. The scene of last night was one suoh as is seldom ex hibited in the Representatives* Hall, and it is hoped will seldom be repeated. Now the storm of debate is over, we hope that the angry feelings which have been excited in it will subside, and that the House will resume its regular action. There is much important business befoie it, requiring the exercise of all its discre tion, and the suppresson of every thing like such angry feeling as is excited by mutual crimination and reproach. The Tariff Bill and the Judiciary B\\\ involve questions of too much pith and conse quence to be deg.aded into mere party questions, or argued or settled on mere party principles. Intelligencer. ' maintain their intellectual or persona) in dependence. We have not enquired if the sentiments w? have expressed aje re sponded by the “Augustians generally,” nor do we say they ought to be. Reason is a shrine to which every man must bow, and if they or we have drawn wrong de ductions, it must be attributed to some error in the association or perception of ideas. X. COMMERCIAL. theatre. Mr. De Camp made his first appear ance before an Augusta audience on Tuesday Evening as George Gossamer, in Laugh when you Can, and Philip Garbois, in the Farre of 102. He made laughing philosophers of the whole audience, and presented in the farce the most inimitable representation of the old soldier, in whom the accumulated snows of 102 winters had not extinguished the fire of youth, and the ardent love of mili tary glory. Mr. Green in sambo presented the true character of an honest servant. In this gentleman’s manner of playing we recog nise just conception of character, and but few, and those slight, inac •uracies in the representation. From having seen him personate mote than one character in the plav, we judgediitn to he among the most useful members of the theatrical corps.— If an actor is deficient iu his part, or thinks himself not sufficiently regarded in {[:e cast of characters, or from any other cause, the dramatis persona: are not com plete, the play must stop, or Mr. Green must take the part. This seems to have been the case on tuesday night, from the apology’ of the managers. Mr. Green, < with but a short notice, was obliged to personate a character, in which he was not cast, or disappoint the audience. The -public will knowhow to reward this dis position to please, md to appreciate the sacrifice which Mr. Green must necessari ly make of his feelings bv suddenly appear ing before an audience, not as well prepa red as he would have been, had he been originally cast for the character. Ham lets, Othellos and Richards, no doubt offer themselves to the Managers in abun dance—-tdi would like to strut their hour of importance upon the stage in the charac ters of Kings, Princes and Heroes; but who would not prefer Mr. Green in the humble sambo, or fastastic Mr. Chasses, the dancing Master, with the true concep tion he fjas of his parts, to see the most princely and heroic characters butchered by a conceited coxcomb, whose vanity and importance take a terrible alarm at the assignment of an inferior part. Na ture even in her lowest dress, presents charms to the eyes of intelligence and feeling, which art can never reach with her coronets, her clarions and rustling banners, and all the array of pemp and magnificence, with which she delights at times to sarround her dramatic heroes. We are requested to state, that there will be no postponement of the entertain ments in the Theatre on account of wea ther. When, therefore, such reports are in circulation as existed yesterday after Ooon, and -which was the cause of the post ponement of Paul Pry, as auuounced, the public may rest assured that they are groundless, as the managers have express ed their determination that, when perfor- oance is announced in the Theatre, those »!-*o honot them with their presence shall Cot be disappointed. Mr. Hamblin appears to oigbt in the . character of Othello. SUPREME COURT OF THE U. S. Breithaupt and Shultz vs. The Bank ff<he State of Georgia.—On questions adjourned to this Court from the Circuit Court for the District of Georgia Mr. Chief Justice Marshall delivered the opinion of the Court. - Cause dismissed . for want of jurisdiction. Adam and Eve are Dominated as Elec tors of President—-Mr. Adam in Pennsyl vania, and Mr. Eve in Kentucky. Adam is for Jackson, and Eve for Adams.— This is as it should be; for, according to Scripture, wldcm was given the dominion. Conn. Hgrald., FOR THE GEORGIA COURIER. Augbsta. Feb. 14, 1828. COTTON.—The demand continues steady, and prices slightly improved-—ordinary and mid dling qualities, 9- a 9|; good fair 9£; prime lots 9$ a 10. The long absence of news from Europe has created considerable anxiety among holders and dealers. The article is parted with reluctantly. On the first of the month, the Stock on hand here, including Hamburg, was 29,600. The re ceipts since 1st < ctober, amount to 77.000; an increase of nearly five, thousand bales the last two weeks, all of w.hich is shipped, forming an aggregate of 55,0Q0 put forward this season. Freights are scarce at 50 cents per bale to Sa vannah, and 75 to Charleston. KEW-XORX MARKET, TZZ. 2.

Z’s letter, if we had not pre sumed that the person at whose request it was inserted, intended it as a reply to our remarks “ over X,” or with a view to elicit some further exposition of the effect of Rail Roads. The drift of the writer (Y. Z.) appears to have been an anxious desire to convince his correspondent that there was “ a cer tain difficulty to be first obviated in order to ensure success to the enterprise,” and that X had given a demonstration of the feeling that existed in “ Savannah, or some of her satellites in-Augusta,” and supports the right of Charleston to be come the “ depot, market, and outlet to Northern and Foreign ports.” It is not expedient to display our views of interest in the Banks or privato specu latiojis we only intend to discover (if we can) why Savannah is to be put down by monopoly—why her citizens are to be led to Bruuswick—or why her Banks health, and children should be milled un righteously out of their ancient posses sions. The claims of Charleston or Sa vaunaii to become tho “ outlet, depot,” &c. ought to be founded on the superior facilities that each may possess for the transportation of goods and intelligence to & from the interior; if it appears that one has the advantage then it naturally be comes the “depot,” &c.; but if each are on par with the other, or the natural defi ciencies of either can be remedied by art then, individual) >, they have the right of using whatever means they can command to gam the ascendency without “ consult ing the sectional interest or aristocracy” of each other. Charleston has an undis puted right to expend three millions of dollars on a Rail Way. Savannah has the same right to employ one million in mak ing the Rivei navigable at all seasons of the year. These are rights inherent to all combinations of men which “sectional” feeling can neither qualify nor modify ; and if Georgians have been divested of them, we are not aware of it. ‘ Suppose the question was urged, whether Charles ton, Beaufort, Savannah, or Darien, was the most proper place for the location of an United States Navy Yard. The inha bitants of each place would as certainly vote for their own town, as that they know it would be an advantage to them ; or if the question was, whether Carolina or Georgia should be the place, they would as certainly vote for themselves. Now, to say that they had followed the dictate of gross self-interest, in seeking to ensure this advantage to themselves, would be absurd. No, a love of country exists in the bosom of almost every man, and he feeis an honest pride in contributing ever so little to the welfare or glory of the state or country that affords him pro tection, or from which he derives the hon orable means of subsistence. The union of Stales do not depend on mercenary connections, necessity or accident; it is that mutual participation in misfortune or glory that affects the heart of man and cre ates a reciprocal regard for those to whom he is so uearly allied ; they know that wealth is not happiness, but a means in the pursuit of which they are all alike free to take their own course, and that the “ sectional” feeling (more properly "hon est contention) that is excited by the com bination of men acting in particular loca tions in the pursuit of that means, is no longer censured than the suggestions ufen* vy are listened to. Located as conveniently as Charleston, and presenting as “just, natural and com mercial rights,” having it in her power to establish a permanent, cheap and expedi tious communication with Augusta and Hamburg, and above all, as capable of be ing as “ noisy” as ever ; we cannot con vince ourselves, that Savannah has no right to exert herself to secure perma nently, and with a “ fixed purpose, these advantages, nor can we discover any sa tisfactory ground for relying on the “^w- ritif" of the motives of the “official organs aud capitalists of Charleston; but perhaps it is because our minds are not so flexible as to receive impressions tbatcould recon cile us to the abandonment of any “ no ble or disinterested” feeling. The Rail Road may be constructed or the Riv er improved, still on points of imagined sectional difference, “ duplicity and deep intrigue,” “ corruption for office " and “ counteracting,”, will be charged" to us as tbgy trees otherauatimi te those who Havre, 1st Dec 1827.
