The Federal Constitution of ourglorioiis union is die result ofa compromise of many jarring views . epo Interests,yet it stands firmly on the common S ound of Republican principles, and is, we ust, destined to be perpetual. Thus also the great whig party, holding a diversity of opinions upon minor topics, occupy common ground in their determination to effect the avowed purposes J of Retrenchment and Reform, That the Presi dent should be elected but for a single term—that tlie expenses of the government should be reduc ed to the lowest limit of a rational economy—that tho duties to meet these expenses should bn care- ‘ fully actoiumoduted to the opposite interests of the agricultural rind manufacturing, the median, iepud commercial classes—that their collection should be effected iu the least onerous mode pos sible—that a rigid system of responsibility should bo established and applied to nil official servant* bf tho public—tipU the constitutional safeguard* . of tlie South should he preserved intact—these ora the doctrinasonwhichwe are all agreed, from the St. John's to the Sabine, and from the Atlan tic to the great lake* mid prairies beyond Die auonntains.

In considering the present situation of Infer- nal Improvements in this State, we cannot refrain fiom glancing a moment at the extremely awk ward position in which every thing is at this mo. ment placed relating to the various public in terest*. . At the present time it is doubtful whether the Legislature will take such measures as will suffice to insure tlie immediate comple tion of the Slate Road. We fear that half way measures will be resorted to, and halfway meas ure* do not square well with such times as w e have no\v fallen upon. As we intitnated some days since, the time has come when the people of Georgia must atone iu bitterness and soyrow for tlie errors end follies of those whom they have selected as gnardians of their best interests. Those guardian* of tlie public weal have created the Central Bank, a worthless concern from its very conception and birth to the dreary uuhououred death which it is soou destined to suffer at the hand-of an indignant people. This Bank (if such a monster deserves a name so respectable) has squandered the public treasure, aud the time is now* at hand when we must be taxed in order to support it in its reckless, extravagant aud vi- ctOua policy, TUW wo must tie, tM “i galled jade wince," still the taxes must be paid. We took exception* lately to the plan of taxation reported by Mr. Gordox. We refer to it again in order once more to express onr decided con viction that it is partial and itunfficien. It readies only the free Negroes and slaves, nnd since almost every member ofour Lcgiilature is a slave-bolder U cannot hy possibility find favor in their eyes. Certain interests which are to be essentially benefitted by a system of taxation for Internal Improvement* are allowed to escape the burden. For example every species of property such aa real and personal .estate, stocks, &c, in our towns is to bo benefitted fully n* much a* tlie plainer who is certainly no better able to bear tho imposition of a tax than other closie. of hi. ftfliow-cilizens. We do not hesitate to say then that no bill will be brought forward similar to that contemplated in Mr. Gordox's report.— Should not measures be taken by this Legislature to push forward ourgreat State tvork to it* com pletion, Georgia will feel for years the conse quence* of a timid legislation, which she will not fail to condemn hereafter. There will not he wanting a powerful lobby influence at Milledgo- vilio w hich will exert itself to defeat our enterpri ses. That influence bus to a certain extent ever been present iu our councils, and it comes main, ly from South Carolina. Every true-hearted Georgian will fed himself insulted by any appeal* coining from that quarter, the Stockho! dersofthe S. Carolina Rail Roads should have nothing to do with onr leginlation, nnd their inter ference iu thus regard will we trust receive a sig- nal rebuke. There are numerous other causes calculated to mar legislation the present seaion, nnd to re duce it to the strict necessary—causes *.o which we shall iu due lime advert—but which should not bo permitted for an instant to interrupt tiie pros ecution of the noblest work in which this Suite has been or trill he at any future period of her his tory, engaged. The husbandman would be laiigh e»l if who should leave bio plough, becapse cloud came over the the face of tho suu, from winch uo material inconvcniencefwa* to be ap prehended. Tho Legislature of Georgia have before them no cause of alarm. They have com mitted errors. Let them go to work manfully repair those errors. They hove by following a vicious policy squandered much of the treasure of the State. Let them make the most of tlie State credit, which will revive a* soon ns the wheel* of tlio Central Bank ore locked, so ns to check her downward course. They have thrown away the public domain by a lottery nysteiii. Let them make the best possible use of the 4 or5,000,000 ofacres of those lands which will revert to the State. Let them meet the shadowy future with a man ly heart. U is pregnant with great event* which they may retard for a season, but by accelerating the approach of which they will insure to them selves unfading honour. In order that tlie vari ous members ofour Legislature should think nnd act alike on these subjects, many of them have ill the first place to get rid of the besetting sin of n local prejudice, which not comprehending an rinlarged system of Statu policy, does not look beyond the limits of their own farm or county.— The success of the Central Rail Road has effec tually solved thn problem about thn utility of Rail Roads in this State. The Macon and For- sytli Road too is going forward to completion, aud gives assurance of prodigious results and as much os Wo promise ourselves at this time, from their improvements ivo cuu -form Ho adequate idea ofthe prodigious benefits which are to accrue not to aa initiated part ofour Stole, but-to the whole of iu Georgia ha* commenced her im» ET We havo noticed lately in onr exchange papers, the record ofnnmeroits marriages in this country and in England, where the egee of the parties were so exceedingly uneqitel as to afford no promise of happiness to at least one of the parties. There ere many mulches made up where the husband is more than twice as old as the wife, which uiay be justly reckoned among the most fortunate, but numerous marriages have of late been noticed, where the husband was nooriy four times ss old as the victim. About ayoar since a young girl, who had been forced into a marriage with a Col. Cobb of Portland. Me., amen of large property ond old enough to be her grandfather, applied to the Legislator* for a divorce. It. was referred to ffie vision of the Supreme JodIMal Court, eat! the case is now being heard. As the husband himself desires to be divorced ss well es the wife, no doubt is entertained of her prayer be ing granted. Thi* beautiful young creature in the midst of het tern and distresses was virtually compelled to form the alliance, she entered into It nnder the impression which was produced on her mind, that her reftisel would cause the death of her rather. After her union will) e man whom she detested, her horror was so great at the situa tion in which she found herself, that she refused to see him or live with him. and rejecting the, splendid misery which he offered her, she hari sustained herself by needle work since the day of her marriage. - Our disgust and indignation at the conduct tf those who for the sake of money were willing jn sacrifice on ionocent victim to a species oflegil prostitution, is only equalled by the adtniratUn which her conduct excites'. In the midst of tears and supplications, she is married to a man ihe hates, in obedience to the commands and ihreot* ofher father—after which, with no other aid than that of Heaven, and an approving conscience, she voluntarily relinquishes wealth, splendour, station, in order to struggle on amidst poverty aud neglect, and to gain a precarious subsistence by the use ofher needle. Such a heart as that girl has, is worth unheard of treasures. It is touching; the loftinesi^ofsoul, the purity of mind and body, and heart, which she has maintained under her severe trials,and her reward is even on thi* earth, for there ia an altar in every human heart, where sacrifice is offered up to such exalt ed virtue.

The main question was decided by the Presi dent to be on Mr. Jones’ substitute, viz: revolu tion* agaiutt a United States Bank, a Tariff for protection, and internal improvement* by the General Government—which were passed by yeas 43, nays34. Ou Saturday the day was consumed jn discuss- *ng the same question, on a motion to reconsider which was finally lost by a decided majority. On yesterday tlie Senate passed a bill for bien nia 1 Sessions ofthe Legislature, by a vote of 69 to 13. Also the bill to create a new Judicial Circuit the Southwestern section of the Stale, by a ma jority of 15. Iu the House, on Friday, Sir. Crawford of Richmpndj introduced an act amendatory of the tax laws, and a resolution for adjournment on the 15lh December. Several bills were parsed, but none of much public interest or importance. The bill to change the time of holding elections for Electors of President, was lost; as also, the bill to alter the Constitution, by removing prop erty qualification required in the Governor. The resolution abolishing the office of State Geolo gist, was passed. On Saturday, the House was principally en gaged in discussing the bill to abolish capital pun ishment of white person* in all cases except trea son, which was rejected by a'largo majority. They adopted Mr. Stephen's report aud reso lutions, allowing tho heirs of D.
