During (At Summer season, a number of unauthorized
persona (*«t subscribers) have found their way into onr
Reading Room. Our merchants, nnd others, who art ref

ofths occasion to say, tAot the rules of the titaMiAmtm

Tho Hon. A. J. Miller and the Whigs.
•Wo cannot refuso tho request of a long-time
friend and subscriber, to publish the letter of Mr
^fftLLBR which appears in our columns. Wercpoat.
our, former language, as quoted by our correspond
ent, and aay with regret that wo “givo a farewell" to
Mr. Miller and to any other Whigs that support
Mr. Pieros with tho lights now before them. Wo
say thii bocitusp wo can see no sufficient reason for
leaving tho Whig ranks. There has boon disaffec
tion, and dissatisfaction, but wo do not soo how they
can be remedied by rushing to the support of Mr.
Pierce. Whatever individuals may do in their rash,
precipitate haste, Whig principles will remain firm
ly established. It is a desperate resort, it seems to
us, under tho circumstances which actually exist, for
any one who is a Whlgst heart, to support a candi
date who ia solemnly pledged by the docreo ol his
nominating convention, to oppose and crush somo
of the dearest articles of political faith in which ho
has boon educated. No doubt tho Whig? of Geor*
gia havo been deceived’and sorely tempted, but
now light has boon dawning upon them within some
woeka past, and they ought not to shut their eyes to
it. ' It hfia how turned upon the testimony of Mr.
Graham, and on various other testimony which we
havo at intervals spread before onr readers, that
Gaul Scott ia eminently entitled to the support of
every Whig. Will the Whigs of Georgia then
rally to him with us ? The propitious moment has
arrived, though late whon thoy can cut the Gordian
knot of their difficulties, and what is therein thoir
position to prevent it ? For ourselves, wo can con
scientiously say, that wo have over spoken to them
from our accustomed placo on tho old Whig plat
form, without oven onco approaching democratic
principles or democratic candidates—that wo have
duno all we might to soften asperities, to heal divi
sions, and to koep in position for that timo when tho
scattered fragments of onr party might bo recoin-
binod. Wo bcliovo that tho favorable moment has
arrived. Mr. Miller himself will not support Mr.
Fierce through tho Southern Rights ticket. Why
should ho or his friends support him through any
other ticket? It seems to us that reasons which
convinco Berrien of Goorgia, Graham of North
Carolina, and a host of eminent Southern Whigs
ought to suffice. Wo say the time has arrived
whon oar recusant friends should fall into tho old
Whig ranks. Mr. Pierce ia not tho man for them.
If thoy once vote for him, then farewoll to thoir old
associations. If they commit themselves now, sen
timents of a falso prido will prevent somo from re
joining us hereafter, whilo others will bo so fettered
and enveloped by the machinations and meshes of
an artful enemy that they will endeavor in vain to
break loose from their thraldom:

October, 20th, 1852.
Messrs. EditorsI hope it is not asking too
much of you, to request tho publication of the Hon.
A J. Miller’s letter recently published upon tho nom
ination of the Democratic Union Electoral Ticket.
This, Sin, is the more required of you in justice to
that honorable and intelligent gentleman, aa you
gfive ua bis “Farewell to the Whig party,” as you
denominated it If to rote for General Pierce for
the Presidency constitutes the disrupturo of ovory
Whig from his party, then, indeed, will you have to
give a great many “Farewells.” Thoro are many
who cannot in conscience support Gen. Scott; and
now that the mental colossus of America hath
dopartod from tho stirring scenes of earth to his
home of immortality, there aro still more of Whigs,
I _apprchqnd, who will votp tho Pierce rather
than the Scott ticket. This will be the ease, gen
tlemen, I apprehend, in tho Legislature as well os
tho popular vote, if tho election should determine
boforo that body.
The views assumed by the Hon. A. J. Miller
are those entertained by very manyof.yonr Whig
. brethren, as woil aa Democratic ; and 1 know that
you will confer a faVor to a number of your readers
and subscribers elsewhere, than in the city of Sa-
Ought not every otherppper that has any desire
to promulgate the views of distinguished and uso-
ful public servants, upon whom the chargo of in
consistency or political apcstacy may be unjustly
thj-own, do likewise, in this and any other similar
caao. 1 humbly think fair dealing and candor re
quire it. Your rcapoctlully,
. CLARION.
MB. MILLEITS LETTER.
For the sako of abridgement wo havo omitted
tho introductory portion of the letter—after stating
that ho cannot support Scott bocauso of “ tho influ
ence which occasioned his nomination over Fill-
mob* and Webster ; nor Webster because ho was
not a candidate. ..Mr. Miller continues: (tho loi
ter is dated Auguste, Oct. 6, 1852.)
Railroads and Animals.
“ Judgo Wilson, of Maryland, has decided that
Railroad Companies ore not only exempt from
damage for cattle killed or injured on thoir roads,
but that tho owners of such animals hro responsi
ble for injuries dono to the cars and for tho deten
tion. Persons living contiguous to tho lines of
railroads would do well to remember this deci
sion.”
Wo quote tho above from an oxchango paper. It
is a proof that correct sentiments are beginning to
prevail. There havo been repeated decisions to
tho same effect, and tho present statute of Goorgia,
submitted to a fair test, would be pronounced un
constitutional. Wo think it about time that if
animals are to bo paid for in Georgia on roads
whore tho right of way has already been procured,
tho damn go done to human life and valuablo prop
erty, such ns locomotives, cars, &c., should bo paid
for too. This is a fair stand off. If tho bull gores
the engino, let tho mutual injury bo adjusted and
settled on fiiir principles. The farmers of Georgia,
ought to accustom themselves to tako a correct view
of this matter. They are sufficiently benefittedby
toil roads, without being paid when the balaacoof
tho damago ia so much against them.
To Brick Makers—Tib Water Works.—We
call the attention of brick makers to tho advertise
ment of Mr. Morse, tho contractor for tho Savan
nah water works. Mr. Morse has mado every con
tract (except tho bricks) necessary to ensure tho
completion of the work with tho greatest possiblo
promptitude, i. e. by tho first of Juno next. His
advertisement is renewed, wo presume, because our
yards havo many engagements already mado to
meot tho rapid demand for buildings of various
descriptions in this city. Mr. Morse would prefer
Southern bricks, made by Southern labor, to Nor
thern ones. Will not tho brick makers of Augusta
offer for tho delivery of somo of thoir bricks—tho
state of tho river permitting?
Great Scarcitt OFSmmNo.—Wo desire to call
tbo attention of Northern Ship owners, to tho fact
that there is at present an nlmost unexampled
want of vessels in this port for freighting cotton
both foreign and coastwise. Thoro aro now 10,-
000 bales more of cotton here than at tho somo timo
last year. With 2000 tons more of shipping now
in port than at the samo timo lost year, ircights to
Now York, aro 371c. per 100 lbs. against 15 cents
last year; to Liverpool, 7-16 to id. this year against
gd. lost year.
Tho report that there was a severe storm at
Turk's Island, on tho 19th ult., which destroyed
100,000 bushels of salt, was not correct. Sait, says
tho Grank Turk Gazette of Gth, was nover plentier
there, than just at present.
Printing paper is scarce in Boston. The Times
of that city says tho scarcity has, not been so great
for soventcen years. It is owing to a drought. It
advertises for three hundred and fifty reams per
week.
Lakqe Claim.—All tho papers for a claim of
land have lately been, filed with tho Land Com
missioner in California, covered four hundred square
leagues of land, (3,000 square miles) to bo located
on the west bank of the Sacramento river, extend
ing from Puta Creek to a point abovo Shasta city,
and reaching back to Clear Lako and the Coast
Range. Tho tract specified includes nearly all of
Shasta, Colusi, and Yolo counties. Tho claim
ants are tho heirs of Augustin do Itorbido, the first
Emperor oi Mexico, who was banished, returned
with a military expedition, was taken prisoner
shot.
The Inspection of Naval Stores.—Tho Nor
folk Beacon states that thoro is great complaint
among tho merchants of that city, both thoso that
soil naval stores and thoso that buy them, about the
inspection of that article. They say that there ia
no necessity for such an officer. As it is now, not
a single buyer will give a farthing more for a bar
rel of tar, pitch or turpentine, after it has received
tho inspector’s mark, than they would bcloro; and
tho owner is mado to pay four cents inspection, be
sides the expense of handling, &c., making an av
erage of seven cents per barrel expenses, which
exhorbitant charges are of no benefit to the ship
pers.
Tho Baltimore Daily Times, which, as wo men
tioned a day or two, had been purdiased by a
party of Journeymen printers, has been discontin
ued inconsequence of its being found not to pay.
Frauds in Trade.—The St. Louis Republican
learns that extensive frauds are being practised in
floor, in short weight, wrong taro on barrels, etc,
Somo barrels havo been found to fall short of the
proper weight as much os eight pounds.
From South-Western Georgia.—A fhend, just
from this section of the State, assures us that the
cotton crop will be a fair one thoro, though not so
great os the large one of Inst year. Sickness has
prevailed in almost all directions.
Tbo mail steamer Gov. Dudley arrived at Charles
ton yesterday morning, bringing passengers through
by tho oxpress train from New York. We are in
debted to the kindness of Capt. Bates for a Copy
of the New York Herald of tho 25th inat, which
came through by Steven’s express.
Mr. Fairbanks, tho some who makes tho patent
platform scales, sold by Pjulbrick & Co., has been
chosen Governor of Vermont, and is out with his
first message. May tho scales of justice ever main
tain an even balance in his hands!
For to? last fourdnyf 'vo havo bad a strong Nor
ther,. blowing almost a galo. It has boon much*
more severe out in tbo gulf than here, and haa forcod
several vessels to oomo in for a harbor. Tho brig
Wefesttmpta, Dixon, master, loaded with 600 bales'
cotton, from Mobllo for New. York, carao in on tho
18th, looking badly. Sho la anchored two miles
from town, not being ablo yet bn account of tho
wind to come up.. Sho will most probably bo hovo
out and repaired. Thoatonraor Creole, Rose, mas

in yesterday, to make a harbor, and will loavo as
soon aa tho weather moderates. Tho bark Emily
Minor, (with 800 bolos cotton and somo corn)
Motxga, master, also came in yosterday in distress.
Sho encountered tho blow to the leeward of tills
placo and was thrown on hor beam ends. Sho ia
anchored a mile from town, and will como up
whon tho wind goes down. She is said not to be
leaking much now, but had four loot water in her
hold boforo aho camo in—is very much strainod and
will havo to bo discharged and hovo out. Tho
Mobilo pilot boat Relief, going from Now York
to Mobilo, has been waiting hero sovcral days on
account of tho wind. She attempted to go out yes
terday at tho N. Weal pass, but tho sea was so
high that she struck on tho bar, unshipped hor rud
der and was obliged to put back, not otherwise in
jured.
Tho steamer William Penn irom Now York for
Mobile, touched off hero on tho 13th, 7 days out.
Sho landed Hon. Wm. Marvin, Judgo of tho U. S
District Court, and Hiram Benner, Esq., merchant

Now, read tho following answer addressed by
hia gallant and distinguished aid-de-camp to too
editors of the National Intelligencer:
“I beg you will deny it, in my name, aa utterly
and unqualifiedly false. I was one of Gon. Scott's
aid-do-camps during tho Moxican war, and havo
continued in that capacity to this timo. Tbo only

cers to report to ccrtaio officers in tho United

All other instructions to recruiting officers wore is

stato toot no such instructions woro issued from that

the Adjutant General’s office, it could only havo
been dono with the sanction of President Polk, or
Mr. Secretary of Wnr Marey, under which Aju-
tant General Jones issued orders during too absence
of tien. Scott in Mexico.

Further Particulars of Mr. Webster’s
Lait Moments—Ills Dying Words.
Boston, Oct. 24th, 7b P. M.—Wo learn from
gentlemen just arrived from Marsbfiold, that up to
10 o’clock on Saturday evening, Mr. Webster con
tinued to fail very rapidly. Arousing from his
lethargy at about 10 o’clock, his conntonanco bo-
came animated, and his eye fiashod with all its
usual brilliancy, when in full hoalth. He exclaim-,
ed—“I still live,” and immediately sank into
tranquil unconsciousness.
Dr. Jeffries offered to Mr. Webster something
which he hoped might give Wm ease.
The dying statesman remarked—“ Something
more, Dostor—more. I want restoration.”
Between ten and cloven o’clock ho repeated some
what indistinctly toe words “Poet, pooiry—Gray,
Gray.”
Mr. Fletcher Webster repeated toe first line of
tho elegy—“ The Curfew tolls the knell of parting
day”
“That'sit, that’s it," said Mr. Webster; and the
book was brought, and some stanzas read to him,
wMch seemed to givo him pleasure.
From 12 to 2 o’clock he manifested much rest
lessness and slight suffering. Faintness also oc
curred, which led him to think that death was near.
Whilo in this condition some expressions iell from
him indicating a hope that his mind would remain
to him to tho last. Mr. Webster also spoko of tho
difficulty of dying, when Dr. Jeffries repeated tho
verse, “Though I walkthrough too valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art
with me, thy rod and thy staff thoy comfort mo.”
Mr. Wobster exclaimed to this, “The fact—the
fact—that is what I meant—toy rod—thy rod—thy
staff—thy stall'.”
Tho close of his life was perfectly tranquil and
easy. Mrs. Webster was unable to witness his last
moments, and awuitcd tho ovent in her own apart
ment.
His bedside was surrounded by his son, Fletcher
Webster, Mr. and Mrs. Paigo, Mr. Harvey, Mrs.
Lovy, Edward Curtis, Mr. Thomas, Mr. Appleton,
Drs. Warren and Jeffries, Mr. Abbott, and Gen. T.
Curtis. A fow mo\nonts after he expired, Mrs.
Webster entered tbo room to gaze upon the lifolesa
remains of her belo'yed partner. Thoaconowaa
painfnl beyond description. Her grief gavo utter
ance in toe most agonizing tones of sorrow. But it
were vain to attempt to mirror the scene. It was a
picture novor to be forgotten.
Those who saw Mr. Wobster a fow moments after
death state that, though much changed, yet there
remained thoso characteristics of tho great man, os
strong in death as they hod been in life.
The Funeral.—It ia understood that Mr. Web
ster, by his own especial direction, will bo buriod
In an unostentatious mannor.
Tho funeral services will bo porformod by tho
clergymen of too parish of South Marshfield, at
which place too remains will bo interred in too
tomb.
It is oxpcctod that Mr. Fillmore and several of
thoCabinot will bo presont at Mr. Webster’s fu-

We have examined tho Tax Collector’s report, and
