Enlightened hope is to be free From mortal bonds and earthly thrill; And such, or soon or late shall lie Full oft (lie heart-breathed sigh of all; Anil when life’s Infest sands we rove, With faltering foot and aching breast, Shall sigh for wings that waft the dove, To flee away and be at rest. While hearts are young and hopes are high. A fairy dream doth life appear; Its sights are beauty to the eye, Its sounds are music to the ear; But soon it glides from youth to age; And of its joys no mare possessed, We, like the captives of the cage, Would flee away and be at rest. Is ours fair woman’s angel smile; All bright and beautiful as day? So of her cheek and eye the while, Time steals the rose and dims the ray; She wanders in the spirit’s land, And we, witli speechless grief oppressed, As o’er the faded form we §tand, Would gladly share her place of rest. Beyond the hills—beyond the sea— Ob! for the pinions of a dove; Oh! for the morning’s wings to flee, . Away and be with them I love; When all is fled that’s bright aiyl fair, And life is but a wintery wasto, This, at last must be our prayer, To flee away and be at rast. From the Washington Globe, We would not have noticed ilio silly (rash of the New York Spy, abou t tho o potation of the revenue collection bill, upon the Cherokee country, had we not seen that in respectable prints his state ment was considered worthy of refutation. The National Gazette has correctly said there is no case depending,and has given its views of the effect of the act upon ihis matter. But the whole subject, and all ihe assertions concerning “it. are unwor thy serious examination. This will be apparent on a moment's examination of ihe law. The 4'h and 5 b sections are those, which it is said, w 11 operate on the Cher okee question, and constitute the trap in which die President is kindly supposed to have caught hini>elf. Let us see. The 4th section simply provides for the remo val of the record or case from the State Court to that of the United Stales. With this of course the Executive has no con cern. Ais interposition can never be re quired, for the act expressly defines the mode in which the omission shall bq sup plied, in case tire State Court fails to send (lie record. The 5 1 h section is the one which au thorizes the employment of military force but unfortunately for the truth ofall these bog-hear stories, this section is expressly limited in its operation to the end of the next Session of Congress. Now indepen dently of the very conclusive review ta ken in the National Gazette of the im possibility of tire Chernkees maintaining a suit in the Supreme Court of the Uni ied States, it is to sufficient say, that no case involving those questions exists in a ny Court whatever. Grant the Supreme Court the most ample jurisdiction over this whole subject, and grant what the Court has expressely disclaimed, tire right ot the Cherukees to uppeur before them every one who knows any thing of judi cial proceedings knows 'it is impossible to institute a suit in one of the Stale Courts, to carry it to the highest Court of law or equity of the State, whence on ly in all cases, except those relating to the revenue, it can be removed, and from there to the Supreme Couit of the United States, procure a final judge ment thereon; have process issued; ihe execution thereof obstructed; die proceed ings thereon directed by the statute take place; tbe facts reported tat Lie President; (be proclamation issued requiring live ob structions to be removed; a neglect or refusal to comply with such proclamation end then call out the military under (his law, before the end of tire next Session of Congress. All these must be done be fore the President could interfere. It is not pretended lhatin any of the interme diate stages of the proceedings, anv force would bo interposed ti obstruct the pro cess. Aad when all this is done, if it e ver should be done, we presume the President weuld look at bis constitutional duty, and examine the whole matter un der the Consu’utioD,and Jaws. We hope we have said enough to allay all the apprehensions of those, who have in such a spirit of amity, conjured up this phantom to trouble the country. Tremendous shocks ol Eat thquakes were felt thro’ the Island of Dominica, (W. I.) on the Bih February. Much damage had been done to houses, and the inhabitants of St. Christ pber were in a state of dreadful alarm From the Washington dole, March 21 lh. A NEW DEMONSTRATION Mr Calhoun and his coadjutors found their conspiracy against the Union pre mature. Every Southern State sot thuir faces against bis scheme, in despite ol lit tle knots of Nullifiers set to wot k in each to produce a different result. The failuie lias’ibduced a retrogade movement, bn* the project of a Southern league and sep aration is not abandoned. To gain time and support, Mr Calhoun has patched up a truce with Mr Clay, and accepted terms which would have been scorned, it proposed by the Head of the Govern ment. Now, under the auspices of their “great ally of the west,” who has impar ted*h 11 the iespectability to their cause, which his name and inlluence can bi ing to it,ihey enter upon a naw course. The Telegraph, which had live vote ol Mr C. and his friends in the Senate, to redeem its sinking reputation, thus breaks ground in opening the trenches against tlie Uui on. “THE INAUGURAL “Without union our independence and liberty wouid never have been achieved wiihout uoion theycan never bemaiiitained Divided in twenty-four, or even in a smaller number of separate communities, we shall see our internal trade burdened with numberless restraints and exactions communication between dislant points and sections obstructed, or cot off; our sons made soldiers to deiuge with blood tbe fields they now till in peuce; the mass o' our people borne down and impoverished by taxes to support armies and navies; and military leaders at the head of their victorious legions becoming our law giv ers and judges. The loss of liberty, of all good government, of peace, and hap piness, must inevitably follow a dissolu tion of the Union.” On this tbe Telegraph thus comments; We are further told that we must “dis counance whatever may suggest even a aopicion that it [ lie Union,] cap in Any Event be abaudoned. Are these the principles of the republi can party? Are these to be the practic al principles of tbe administration of Gen. Jackson? Are they congenial wi h the theory and genius of the Constitution? If they be, then how vain and foolish, & wicked have beet} those whom we have hitherto treasured in our hearts and mem orius as ilio great advocates of liberty & the rights of the States. Truly did the elder Adams say, that “ republicanism meant any thing, or no thing;” if these principles oneto be consi dered as held by republicans. Let the views here presented, be but once fully impressed upon the public mind, and at once all hope will be de stroyed of preserving the rights of the States, or defending the minority from the oppressions of the majority. We are here distinctly told that, not in any case can the Union be abandoned. The reader will observe, that thr» par ticular sentiment seized on by the Tele graph for animadversion,is a passage quo ted verbatim from Washington's farewell address , and adopted in the late Inaugur al Address by General J icksnn. Wash., ir/gtou conjures his coun'rymen “to DISCOUNTENANCE WHATEVER MAY SUG GEST EVEN A SUSPICION THAT IT [THE Uni >n can in any eveNt be abandon ED.” President Jackson adopts the senti ment in the very which it was ottered by the father of his country, and enforces ii by tiie considerations, which arc given in connoci-iont wi/h it. Duff Green, then, boldly denounces the idea in the extract we have given, and the whole tone an! tenor of tire arti cle proves that the design of the party whom fie serves, is to alienate the aflVc tions of the South from the Union; and ns a first st£p, the attempt is made to eradicate from the mind of the people the reverence Entertained by them for the piecepts of Washington. This the Telegraph does by the usual nullify ing erv against the tyranny of the major ity. He says, “You have it [the theory of such a Goverment] all laid down in one short dictum—obey the majorityl obey the majori‘y\" This ho is determined not to do, and thus argues (he policy of a dissolution of the Union : “Rut this is not all. We are here told that without Union the people of the U tlited States could not preserve their inde pendence and liberty. That the loss of li berty, of peaco, plenty, and happiness would be certain to result from the people formingthemselvgs into more than onecom munity. Was grosser ignorance of the nature of man, of the history of political institutions, of the genius and principles of our Government,ever exhibited? What a commentary on our institutions. What a satire on the attempt of the people to govern themselves! If such he the nature of man, that lie cannot govern himself, nor preset vo his liberty, peace, and h ippiuess, while he terms a portion of a community, occuping less apace than those occupied by the people of the United Slates, how vain are | the hopes that, by the diffusion of koowl ; edge, the people of Eiiropo may one day i or oilier be enabled to form free institu tions? France and England have the most sanguine hopes, but how caD they pre serve their libm ties and independence in their confined boundaries, if we the peo ple of (lie United States must lose ours, if we should think proper to form two dis tinct communities. The people of the United States occupy a territory larger than England, Ireland, Portugal, Spain France, Italy, Switzerland, Holland, Bel gium,and all Germany combined. We see there many distinct communities preserv iog'tbeir independence, and why should they not be able to preserve their liber ties, when they once gain them although they be divided into distinct communities. And to bi ing it home to us, suppose that at the treaty of peace io 1782, Spain had succeeded in her wishes of acquiring all the territory west of tlie Alleghany, could not the people of the Atlantic Slates gov ern themselves as well as they do uow? Would they have lost their liberties? And if, nt any day, the people* of the west should find it thoir interest to esstablish a separate Government,can any man be so stupid as to imagine thulthe loss of liberty, peace, and happiness would be the result? Would our being in two distinct commu nities deprive the people of all knowledge of Government* would it blind them as to what measures would bo most advan tageous to them? The valley of ihe Mis sissippi can support 50 millions of people. Could they not pieserve their liberty and peace, plenty and happiness, even if they should be separated from the Atlantic States? And certainly the Atlantic Stales could get on tolerably well, even if the Alleghany had proved an impassable barrier. We consider these views of the Presi dent as grossly absurd, and nothing but the source from which they originate cau ses us to take notice of them The au thoriry of his name, although greatly di minished, is still something. We shall soon be able to say that it is nothing. From ibis it becomes apparent ih it Mr Calhoun and his party mean to rally again in the South,and will seek to extend theit disaffection upon the principle that Union is incompatible with their interests. The nest of ambitious politicians whom Mr C. has nurtured in the hope of giving law to fhis couutry find themselves sunk forever in the eves >#f the groat mass of their couo trymen by ’heir odious conduct. They have attempted to cariy a majority in fa vor of their high pretensions by rushing into everv extreme of political doctrine. They have no resort left, but to carve out a little Southern despotism over which they may lord it with test oaths, bills of attainder, and laios defining treason, and such other political machinery , as may be necessary to fix the yoke of ilie Southern Aristocracy upon the classes of citizens. Wo shall then have a glorious illustration us the free principle which in advance scouts the right of the majorit to govern; and indeed we have already seen the principles acted out, for evety body know that Calhoun, Hamilton, Hayne, M’Duf lie, und a few others in effect, dicta ted every thing which has been recently done in Smith Carolina. They have giv en a fine foretaste of the species of liberty which they think salutary in a sultry cli mate. We give ale ter from a respectable gentleman of Columbia, whose views ol things iu the South are corroborated by tho article in the Telegraph. Govern or Hayne’s insisting upon the continuance of the military, and Wr. McDuffie’s de duration that they were secure alone by the sword me in perfect keeping; and make good every word uttered by tliui confidant and confederate Mr. Smith, whose remarks in convention we-copy from a Southern paper. Columbia, I9 h March, 1533. My Dear Sir: The convention ad journed last night and 1 enclose you tins m lining’s Telescope, which contains the two Ordinances adopted by that body.— In the same ,«aper you also have the Re ports from the Committee of lwenty-otie, which were finally agreed to Some of the Convention are much dissatisfied with the proceedings, on account of not being they say, strong enough. J. L. Wilson, Governor, made a most wanton and violent speech yesieiday against tho Union Party, as well as the General Government, and denounced Gen. Jackson as “Me most abandoned Tyrant on earth!" Called the Union Party Tories, and said they deseived the punishment due to such characters—that he was ready to fight them, or drive them from the State, lie was for makeing eve ry voter swear exclusive allegiance to this State! oi not vote, and if tins was noi made the paramount law of the State. he would quit the Convention the most dis satisfied man on earth." You will perceive that tire Ordinance authorizes the Legislature to impose any oath upon the people, and decide what is treason , &c. &e. As the Legislature is composed of a large majority of Nulli fiers, I have no doubt they will cany out the spirit of intolerance and tyranny to its foil extent. The Convention would have dofie all that Wilson wanted them to do, but from motives of policy, they refrained from it. I have no doubt Wilson expressed the real feeling of most of the Nollies.—Prudence alone re strained—with Wilson, such prudence is despised—for he is a whole-liog man in whatever he goes for. Governor Hayne had ihe thanks of the Convention voted to him, and of course made a speech in reply, iu which ho told them many things, and they must*be vi gilant and keep up the military ! &c. &c. or the rights and interest* of the couutrx would be sacrificed to tho Central Gov l ernment at W ashington, the Treasury of the United States would bo usod to bribe the people and enslave the country, .&.C. <fcc. In a word, my dear Sir, from all I see and can learn, ! caunot resist the belief, that disunion, is the settled pur pose of the chief men of the Nullifying party, and that a plan is this moment on foot to form a Southern league , for the express purpose of establishing a confede racy independent of that government our fathers established. Every effort will now be mado to unite the Southern States in one common feel ing, and then iu united action. I hope i am mistaken ; but I*fear time will prove the truth of my apprehensions. Yet I trust the great governor of the universe will so euligh eu the people and purify their hearts, that they may perceive anß sustain the true interest and glory of our common country, and that our Union may be a lasting blessing iu all time to come. m Captors of the Bastile. —A bill was passed by the Fiench Chamber of De puties k on the 23d January, granting a iife annuity of 250 francs to each of the surviving captors of the Bastile. The measure was opposed by M. Gseian be la Rochefaticatild, chieflv on the ground that the attack on the Bastile was oue of those anarchical events which more fre quently injure titan serve the cause of true liberty, and was the precursor of the horrors and massacres of the Revolution. General Lafayette replied in a spirited speech, vindicating the character of the event, and quoted a remark which had been made by the father of M. de Roche* f.iucanld, at the time of the capture of tho Bastile. When Louis XVI. spoke of it before him as a great emeuie, (riot,) lie replied “No, Sire, it is a great revolution.” The bill contained the names of more than 400 individuals, all whom had pro duced incontestible proof of their paitici pation in the combat. The Duchess de Berry. —The indis position of the Duchess* de Berry, and the fact that two of the most skilful and celebrated physicians of Paris have been despatched to her assistance, have given rise to some scandalous insinuations in the Patis papers. We trust, lor the sake of sentiment, that there is no foundation in them. It would be a most preposterous sequel to her late romantic exploits. The German papeissav that the car nage at the giea’. bettleof Koniah in which the Turks were utterly routed by the Egyptians, was terrible; that 30,000 men were left on the field, and that the Turks suffered them selves to be cut down lor a lung time before they would take to flight. Tho Romans and Albanians lor tho most part went over to ihe enemy. A Russian General officer is said to have been des patched to the victorious Pacha, in order by forcible representation to induce or compei him to be more moderate in bis de mands. The General opinion seems to be that tho only hope of safety for the Sultan is in peace, to be purchased by uuqual tied submission to all the exactions of the Pacha. A railway between Liverpool and Lon don, it appears by the English papers, is in contemplation, two bills being now be fore Pailiament, which are represented as likely to receive the Legislative sanction. The Liverpool Times remarks, that the joint woik, to be undertaken by th.e man agers of the Birmingham and Liverpool Line, when finished, will bo one of die noblest triumphs of science ever achieved and one of the most important publi.c benefits ever conferred by science on ihis country. In a few years Liverpool will probably be within twelve horns’ ride of London. We take tbe following from the Journal dn Commerce of Lvous, of the 27th ult. : Two days ago a mercantile house was opening some bales of cotton, when to tho lstonidiment of those engaged in the operation, there was found in one of them the body of a negro, bent double and carefully packed iu die tniddje of it.” From the, N. Y. Commercial Advertiser STILL LATER FROM EUROPE. By the ship Ajax, Capt. Heim, from Liverpool, the Editors of the Commer cial Advertiser have received London papers to the 19di, and Liveipool to the 21st of Feb. both inclusive. The intelligence from the continent is not important, unless it be inferred, that diero is a growing disposition among the Northern powers of Europe, ultimately to iutorpose in behalf of Holland. It was believed that unless the negoti ations with Holland were soon terminal* ed, England and France would soon force the navigation of the Scheldt. From an Odessa Journal of January 18th, we learn that the Sultan’s army had experienced anew defeat. After Ibrahim Pacha had mado himselfnnaster of Koniah, and of all the Turkish’maga /.ines of ammunition and provisions, he gained another victory at Akshir. The had weather, bewever, did not allow him to prosecute hi3 advantages. Tho panic terror that has seized the Tuiks, renders them, it is said, unable to make any re sistance.— Diplomacy will now step in. WEST INDIES. Memorandum , communicated by Viscount Goderich to the West India Body, February 4, 1833. 1. llis Majesty’s Government will be ready to communicate confidentially with the West India body before they submit to Parliament any propositions upon the subject of the West India af fairs. 2. The Government retain their ori ginal opinion upon the subject of a com mittee of the House of Lords, of which the West India body now seek the re newal.—They felt at the time confident that it would necessaiiiy he followed by the appointment of a commitee of the House of Commons, which, in all pro bability, would aim ut and fferent objects, and be conducted upon and fferent princi ples ; and they apprehended that the re sult of the inquiries would be to increase tho vehemence of the controversy upon the subject of slavery, to irrigate rather than moderate the excited feeliugs of the public, and aggravate the acknow ledged difficulties of the whole question. Wlial has occurred since the close of the last session lias not aheied, but has, on the contrary, confirmed these views ; and they would earnestly press up<*n the West I udja body tire expediency of not calling, upon the present occasion, for a renewal of the committee of the House of L°rds. They admit, at the same time, that there prevailed, when the Committees closed their labors, an impression that their inquiries would be resumed in the present Session, and that that impression «a# countenanced by the language of the respective reports. Nor are they di* posed to deny that they themselves let-" ed forward to that course. Considet'Si however, every thing which has subse quently passed, and the actual state of the question, they feel that they would best consult the interest of the West In dies, by not inviting the House of Lords to re-appoint the Committee. If, never theless, the West India Body should continue to think its revival essential to their interests, his Majesty’s Govern ment will not oppose such a proposi tion if brought forward from any other quarter. Feeling it, howover, to be their duty in the present crisis of West India af fairs, to act upon their own responsibili ty, they deem it incumbent upon them to state, that the appointment of such a Committee would not cause them to ab stain from maturing and proposing such measures as they may, upon full consid ration, and after communication with the West India body, deem to be best calcu lated to bring this important subject to a safe and satisfactory termination. Memorial of the Standing Committee of West India Planters and Merchants , consequent upon the foregoing Com munication. To the Right Honorable the Earl Grey, K. G. First Lord of hss Majesty’s Treasury, &c. dec. and to the other Min isters of the Crown. * Your memorialists beg respectfully to acknowledge the receipt of a communi cation, in the form of a minute, bearing date the 4th inst. having reference to the Conference of the 28lh ult. and beg to express their satisfaction at the King’s Government having assured them that they will “ communicate confidently with the West India Body, but they submit to Parliament any propssirion upon the subject of West India Affairs.” Your memorialists submit that, if the appoint merit of the Committee of the House of Com mons, consequent upon the granting that in the House of Lords, has, by the result of its Inqui ries, “ increased the vehemence of tbe contro versy, and irritated, rather than moderated, the excited feelings of the public;” that effect is attributable to the publication of the ev idence in on incomplete and inconclusive state ; and although your memorialists haw no desire to aggravate the difficulties of the question, yet they deem if essential to the just and safe settlement of it, that tire real ex tent of those difficulties should be made appa rent The Committee reported that, “the important question of what is due to the fair and equitable consideration of pri vate property, as connected with the ex. Unction of Slavery, had not been investi gated by them. Until, however, that part of the ques tion shall have been investigated, the furtHfer one of the extinction of slavery itself cannot be doalt with. And as the slaves *are, by the laws of England, the property, and necessaiy to the value of the estates of their masters, in which, “by no fault of their own, aud throngh the encouragement of various acts of the Legislature” (as allowed by Mr. Can ning) they, or their predecessors, have invested their fortunes, "the fair aud equi table consideration due to the rights of private property’ 1 must in this case in volve previous provision of funds, to an amount which will be of an appalling magnitude. Your memorialists submit that, as the Committee in the House of Commons was conceded to their opponents, and the evidence for the caso of those opponents made public, its labors should not stop at the procise point most prejudicial to die colonists. And they further submit, that the committee is also bound, if it shall report in favor of the extinction of slave ry at any definite period, to found that report upon an investigation of the de tails of a plan upon which it shall be practicable, consistently with the safety us the Colonies, and the well being of the slaves, themselves as well as the rights of property. For these reasons your memorialists do not see that ovil in the renewal of the committee of the House of Commons (trusting if such renewal shall be inevita ble, to the justice of the King’s Govern ment for its impartial constitution,) which should deter them from their demand for the renewal of that in the Lords, in which house they consider it indispensable to their interests, not only that inquiries should be extended up tb the other colo nies as well as Jamaica, but that the evi dence upon oath of Lord Belmore, of Sir James Lyon, and of the Deputies specially sent from the different colonies for the express purpose of giving evi dence upon the case, should it be taken. With regard to the announcement of His Majesty’s Ministers, that the Gov ernment means to act upon its own res ponsibility, and to mature and propose such measure as may seem to them best calculated to bring the important subject to a safe and satisfactory termination, notwithstanding the renewal of the com mittee, and consequently pending its 1 inquiries, your memorialists must protest < against the inconsistency of a course nul- ' iifying the only purposes for which the i committee shall bo granted, and therefore destroying the value of the concession itself. They continue to maintain, that until that committee shall B*ve reported the “dispassionate and impartial result of ari ample and patient investigation” of the whole case, in referee to the rights of the colonists theo ,rfe l v es, the rights of their cieditors in tl ,s country, the well being of the slaves *he safety of the col onies, and their incalculable importance as a constituen P af t of this empire, the Goverument r ® as liltlo qualified to deal with these d^ cu^( an( ? momentous sub jects as th«/ w ere previously to granting the comr <llee the last Parliament. /Sined) VV. H. COOPER, Bart. Chairman protecn. fj St. James-Street , Feb. 7. ENGLAND. IRI*H ENFORCEMET bill passed. On the 21st February, Lord Shaftes bury, in the House of Lords, brought up tfie report on the bill, for the suppressing of disturbances in Ireland (contained iu another column of this paper) and the same, with its amendments, after some desultory conversation, was agreed to. One of the amendments that had been inserted was moved by Earl Grey for the prevention of signals by bonfires, &c. IRELAND. Great agitation was manifested at Dublin on the 20th, in consequence of the Suppression Bill. L'he Tr bdes and the Volunteers had sus pended their political operations to deliberate on their personal security. A great general j meeting was to take place the next day. A run ’ had been made upon tbe Bank»of Irelaud for i gold, but not to a great extent. Mr. O’Connell —The following letter from Mr. O’Conuell, relative to the coercive mea sures proposed by Eai I Grey, has been receiv ed by one ot his friends in Dublin:— 14, Albemarle-street, London, Saturday. 1 proposed to myself to send you for publi cation, on Monday, an address to the Irish people, on the present truly awful crisis of pub lic affairs, but 1 have been occupied with confcr j encev all day, with Irish and British Members I of the Commons—and I derive much consola -1 tion from being able to tell you, that not only are the popular Irish Members firm h unanimous but that there are a greater number far more than I could possibly expect of the British Mem bers, determined to resist the atrocious tyran ny with which Earl Grey has the unheard of audacity to dare to threaten Ireland. Talk of an union, indeed, between the countries, aftex presuming to attempt to outlaw the inhabitants of one great portion of the empire!! But the extreme despotism of the proposed measures has a tendency to disgust every friend oi liberty , and in Englaud we shall certainly get support out of doors. In the meant time, pray use ray name to con jure the people, first, to be perfectly peaceable no outbreak—no violence ; on the contrary, poove the absolute madness of doing the business of onr enemies, by any species of violation of the law. Secondly, get the clergy, if possible, and the laity, unanimously io petition. Petition petition—petition against these measures. Let us have fitm,' respectful, strong petitions from every part of Ireland. j'Let there be no despair—tbe constitutional battle for Irish liberty is not yet lost—neither shall it be, with the blessing of God. I repeat, let no man despair? on the contrary, call on tire friends of freedom to insist that their represen tatives shall do their duty. “ I have not time this day to write more. Let ‘ Peace, order and constitutional exeition be our motto. “ Believe ir e &.c. DANIEL O’CONNELL^ HOLLAND. The London Morning Advertiser of the 21st, says : We understand that an application to the F.ra peror Nicholas by the Dutch King, to assist in extricating him from the difficulties in which his own obstinacy has involved him. has met with an unfavorable reception. He is advised, for his own good and that of his subjects, to settle his differences with France and England as speedily as possible. AUGUSTA. WEDNESDAY, APRIL, 3. We have not received the Charleston papers, of Monday last. The Cotton shipped from this Port and Ham-, bmg from Ist October Inst to Ist April amounts 101,600 bales. On hand in Augusta 18,894 —in Hamburg 1,299 —in both places 20,193. Tbe supply by wagons is very moderate, probably owing to the continued rains and consequent bad roads. We quote 9to 10J —choice 11 cents. CF We are requested to call the attention of the lovers of Music to the Entertainment pro»_ posed this evening in the Masonic Hall. Master Burke’* talents in this respect are not more pre»v cocious than extraordinary. Those who have not witnessed his performances elsewhere, will now have an opportunity of doing so in the Masonic Hall. The Ajax and (he Ruscoc w.th dates to the 21st find 24th from Liverpool have arrived at New-Yoik. We have extiacted the articles of Interest. Joun Stocking, Jr. has been re-elected Mayor of the City of Mobile. Sir R. Vaughan, the English Ambassador to the U. States, came passenger in the ship Koscoa We regret to observe our friend Perry has ceased his connection with the Greenville Moun taineer. He considers his work done—the “ union safe and nullification gone with an ex piring flourish, to the tomb of the Capulets.”— Mr. Wells continues ths paper. The Chronicle expresses its surprise that the Hon. Win. H. Crawford should he so dead to “Southern feeling,” as to allow himself “to be appointed one of ihe Vice-Presidents of that nucleus of mischief, the Colonization Society in Washington City.” We have not by us at this moment the means of determining precise? ly, but our impression is, that he has been an honored officer of that Society fr*m its origin, and the reeent appointment, at which our neigh bor expresses such sui prise, is nothing but a re-nomination to thexame office. A white man by tbe name of Morgan, and 3 Negroes were recently drowned at Coosawda, Ala. in attempting to cross the river in a small beat. The water courses to the westward of us have been very high. The Montgomery Journ al says, most of the Bridges in the Creek Nation are swept away. The water of the Alabama was on a level with the door of thft State House in Cahawba. We invite the reader’* attention to two arti cles from the Globe. One of them developes clearly the designs of the Disunion Party of the South. That disunion is their o'bjact, no one' we think, can doubt, who duly considers their past and present operations. They have been so completely foiled, however, in the attempt by Nullification, that they find it necessary to find other topics of agitation, and none in this State is so fruitful of angry excitement as the subject, qf our Indian Lands. We caution our readers against their designs. The “Enforcing Bill ,” which is so dreadful a stumbling block in their way, and connected with it the President’s Proc lamation, are to form the levers, by which these modern Archimedes expect to move the world. No wonder they are so opposed to it—they feel it to be the voice of the Nation opposed to them, Let not their slanders lessen your confidence in those whom you have found honest and true.—> Their falsehoods and violence will soon recoiPon their owa heads, driven back by the indignatisn of an insulted people.
