their good ease/aud such as are out ot health be
ihankfutthat mjf are no Worse. Let such as uro
rich be thankful far their Wealth, (if it hath been hon.
cstly come by;) and let such as are poor be thank-
tul that they have no such charge upon their souls.
Let old tolks be thankfull'or theirvrisdom in know
ing that young folks are fools -, and let young
ones be thankful that they may live to see the
time when they may use the same privilege. Let
lean folks bo thankful for their spare ribs, which
are not a burthen lu the harvest-Geld ; fat folks may
laugh at lean ones, and grow fattor every day. Let
married tolks be thankful for blessings both little and
great • let bache lore and old malda be thankful for
the, privilege of kissing other folk's babies, and
creel good may it do them.
Let no man look upon a turkey to-day, and say
“This, also,1i vanity.” What is the life ot man with-
ohtenfature comforts, and the stomach of the son of
man'with no aid from the tin kitchen ? Despise not
the day of small things, while there are pullets on the
aplt, and let every fowl have fair play, between the
taws of thy philosophy. Are not pundings made to
be sliced, and pie-cruststo be broken? Go thy ways,
then, according to good sense, good cheer, good ap
petite, the high prico of Cotton, and every other
good thing under the sun;—*render thanks tor all the
good things of this life, jmd guod cooking among the
rest; eat, drink, and bo merry; make not aiean lau
dation of the bounties of Providence, but let a lively

gusto iollow a long grace.
Feast thankfully, and feast bopingly; feast in good

cepted;) feast in full and joyous persuasion, that
while the earth remaineth, seed time and harvest,
dinner-time, pudding time, and supper-time, are not
likely to go out of fashion ;—feast with exulting con

constitution of our ancient, blessed, and fat-sided
commonwealth ;-feast in short, like a good Chr.s-
tian and a true Georgian, proving all things, relish
ing all things, hoping all things, expecting all things,
and enjoying all things. Let a good stomach go hand

m The Republitan calls .thoiMoming News tile
“Fugitive Orgao.” I bis is exceedingly severe. But
we can assure the editor, that we are not to be the
least disconcerted by his calling us names or“makiug
faces at us.” The time has been when such things,
would have made us feel ,very bad, but though we
have not heard it thunder os often as he has, we are
yet too old to beaunoyetlby such juvenile warfare-
jgp" One of the most striking facts of the times
is the great increase In the population of Georgia, as
denoted by the recent census. It exceeds that of
any State in the Lniou. and has been, since 1840, for
ty five per centum. Whether this fact is a cause or
a consequence of diversified Industrial pursuits, or
whether it results from the central situation of the
State, would be something which it would be agreea-
hie to Know, (says the Mobile Tribune.) One thing,
however,, it doe* prove, namely, that slave institu
tions are not necessarily anti-progressive in thoir ef
fects on wealth and population,
PhtuLATioN of Augusta.—The AuguBta Republic
says the population of that city will reach over
l!!t.000— H being an increase of frotn 35 to 40 per cent
since, the census taken in 1845.
Caaifobma Senator—We see it stated that
Hon,, M. H. McAllister, recently of this State, ia
spoken of as a prominent candidate for U. S. Senator,
in place of Mr. Fremont, whose term shortly ex
pires.
<• Those periodicals are the criticnl censors of the
British scholastic and literary world. By their criti
cisms, they aid readerB in tho addition ot stand ard
valuable books ; and by the epitomes which they
present, often obviate the necessity of consulting
works too voluminous for general examination.
They fill a place which American magazines cannot
supply ; for they discuss topics relating more strict
ly to the affairs, political, religious, scientific, and
liternry.of the continent of Europe. They are con
ducted by tho best talent of Great Britain ; and are
engaged with the miist important questions which in
terest or agitate the civilized world. Whoever sub
scribes to them all, may read the ablest representa
tives of the principal parties into which the peoplo
of Great Britain are divided."
THE EDINBURGH BEVIEW
is the exponent, of the Whig party in Great Britain,
having from its commenc -ment advocated Freedom
and tho rights of the people. The leaders of the To
ry party, at whom thn thunders of its eloquence were
especially directed, finding it too powerful an Insftu-
ment to bo resisted by ordinary means, established
tho “Quarterly,” or as it is distinguished among the
Americun Reprints,
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
whereby to counteract that influence which its pow
erful rival exerted agninst thoir measures.
Men of tho highest literary rank, as well as digni
taries civil and ecclesiastic, have contributed and
continue to contribute to the pages of these works.
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW.
This able lournal was established under tho patron
age and support of the ultra-liberals, so styled, of the
British House of Commons. It has ever been espe-
claUy devoted to the great topics which interest the
mass of the people. Its pages have been rife, it will be
remembered with a series of powerful arti lee. tend
ing to the reduction ofTory and exclusive privileges,
hereditary rights, kingly prerogatives, 4c. Not on
ly has its articles ever been directed against the
afore-mentioned abuses; the work has also maintain
ed an unrelenting crusade against the alliance of
Church and State, thus virtually seeking to abolish
tho “Parliamentary Religion" of England and event
ually to remove the still existing remnants of feudal
ism, which continue to afflict the British nation. In
many particulars, the Westminster Review espouses
a political laith closely allied to that of our own
country, and therefore we may, without any extra
ordinary effort of charity, be induced to cherish it as
sn exotic worthy of being engrafted into our more
genial soil.
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW
is a work of more recent origin than those already
described—but is nevertheless, destined to occupy
as prominent a place in the Republic of Letters. The
basis of this Journal is the evangelism oi the Nine
teeuth century ; It is not ultra in its views on any
one of the grand departments of human knowledge
at the same timo it never drifts from its moorings
on the shores of the pure Evangelical religion of the
Bible. Nor will it fail to compare moat favorably
with every other cotemporary in the amount of tap
ent, energy, and spirit, enlisted on its side.
It is not to be considered strictly a Theological Re
view, tor topics of every • kind calculated to occupy
and interest the well cultivated mind are introduced
BLACKWOOD'S EDINBUBGH MAGAZINE
is less exclusive in its character than the works al
ready noticed; its contents may be considered under
the general heads of classical literature, biography,
narratives historical and fictitious, poetry, critical
analyses of new works, Ate,, 4c. The high order-
ofita disquisitions has long rendered it proudly dis
Mis. Bell Murtin.who recently died in New York city,
immediately on her arrival in a sailing vesssel lrom
Ireland. Mrs. Martin was tho daughter and heir of
Thos. Martin, M. P., of liallinaliinch Castle, in tho
County of Galway. She was born to nn immense in
heritance, exceding in extent an entire kingdom of
some of the German princes,and yielding a yearly in
come, above all expenses, of some £5,000 or $25,000.
Such were her circumstances and prospects five
years ago. In two years time the potato rot, famine,
pestilence, tho claims of money lenders, and the
agency of British laws, reduced this lady of fortune
and almost princely rank, to absolute penury. Her
whole estate was brought into the Encumbered Es
tate Court and advertised for private sale, and she
herself compelled to go forth as a wandei cr with
out a home. The Mail says ot thia sad history-
" Never was hard fute loss deserved; for her un
tiring and active benevolence had been devoted from
her childhood to the comtort and relief of those who
suffered, and her powerful and original mind was in
cessantly employed in devising means of

We notice that some of the Georgia papers
are calling the attention of holders of bills on the
banks in South Carolina, to the fact that should that
state secede from the union, her paper currehcy will
greatly depreciate in value. This may, and it may
not, bo so. At present the banks of South Carolina
are in e very sound condition, and pertectly able to
redeem their bills, so far as we know. It cannot be
disguised, however, that the course which is being
pursued in toatstate at present,must materially injure
the credit of her banks, unless it be speedily stop
ped. At present, however, we see no reason to re
fuse the bills of the South Carolina banks.—Knox-
vM&Register.
We designed alluding to this subject ourself, but
the Register has applied the corrective to the unwar
rantable attempt that has been made in certain quar
ters to depreciate the currency of South Carolina,
which we believe since the foundation of the Govern
ment has ranked second to that of no other State in
the Union. If Carolina politics aro at a discount in
Georgia aqd Tennessee, her money, nevertheless,
passes current. How favorably the magnanimity of toe
Register, a Btrong Union print, contrasts with the
petty malignity of those who have labored to ant on
foot a rumor to the injury ef the people of a sister
State. It seems that there are meu whose political
principles are dictated by their persona) interests
and prejudices rather than by the convictions of
their judgments. Such men are fitter “for treason,
stratagems, and spoils,” than for sovereign citizens
of a republic of States.bound together by fraternal ties
and community of interests. Sectionalism of any
kind is greatly to be deprecated, but most of all a
sectionalism that would make the Savannah Rive 1

view of Mr. Webster's removal to the city of New
York, where it was stated lie designe . to reside
after the terminath-n of bis present connection with
the government. This statement is however dis
credited by a portion of the Boston press who suy
that the secret of the sale of the choice wines, lies
in the fact that the distinguished Statesmen has re
cenlly been elected an honorary member of a Tem
perance Society^
Land Warrants—A Singular Case.—An old
soldier living at Harper's Ferry, Va. being entitled to
160acres of land under toe new bounty act, obtain
ed from the patent office the necessary authority for
locating his land. He selected it on a tract of unoc
cupied Government land at Harper's Ferry, being
more convenient in his estimation than travelling
over the wilds of Oregon. Mineaeto, or California
The old soldier has consulted able legal gentlemen
who have given it as their opinion that he can hold
the land, us tho bounty act allows the location upon
any unoccupied government land. The property
thus selected is said to be worth at least $150,000.
