BRIGADE ORDERS.
Savannah, March 2, 1825.
In pursuance of Division Orders, of the
21th lilt, just received, “ All Volunteer
Corps of Artillery, Cavalry, Infantry, and
Riflemen,” within the First Brigade, are
ordered “ to hold themselves in readiness,
completely armed and equipped, to receive
General Lafayette with militury honors,
at any point to which any portion of them
may be ordered.”
Field Officers will see to the promulga
tion and execution of those orders, within
their respective commands.
By ord-r of O n. Harden,
SAMUEL ST! LES, Aid-de-Camp.
The following resolution was passed by
the Officers of the First Regiment. Georgia
Militia, ut a meeting held on the 3d March:

and Brigadier General H arden, and their
suites, all other Officers of the General
Staff*, all Field and C.unpun) Officers of oth

Four northern mails came ill last eve

Progress of Lafayette.—A note from
the Postmaster at Fayetteville, doted the
1th March, says, “ General Lafayette is
here to-day, on his way to the South.”
The Charleston Mercury, states, that the
General left Fayetteville on the 1th for
Camden, and is expected to enter Charles
ton on Monday next. He was to arrive in
Wilmington N. C. this day.
The “Rumor of War.”—We have no
thing but surmise among our papers by last
mails upon the subject of the late naval or
ders. The Pliladolpliia Franklin Gazette
says the preparation is only to pursue with
spirit the war against the pirates. The
Philadelphia Freeman's Journal says it i.»
generally conjectured that in consmpince
ot the late despatches received at Wash
ington through the hands of Mr. Appleton,
a squadron of great force is to he stationed
near Gibraltar unJ along the Mediterra
nean.

of each Medal with an appropriate addioss.
The ceremony was full of interest, t.s it
was associated with the recollection of some
of the most brilliant events of the lute .var.
It is a matter of regret that. Gen.Gaines,
who is in Washington,ivas prevented by in

On the 15th ult. a large number of the
Citizens of Trenton and vicinity, advocates
of the election of John Quincy Adams,
partook of a sumptuous dinner at the Ri

to the Presidency. The centre of the ta
ble was graced with a large Pumpkin Pie,
measuring 4 feet by 2.
A letter from London, of the 5th Janua

The StomArnPuMe.— Almost every Lon
don paper which we have seen for a year
past, has contained instances of the success
ful application of an instrument invented by
a Mr. Jukes, for the purpose of extracting
offensive or poisonous matter from the sto

recollect to have seen of the successful
operation of a similar instrument in the Uni

Mr. Camhreleng, from the Committee of
Ways anil Means, reported a bill to author
ize the importation of foreign distilled spir
its in casks of a capacity not less than fifteen
gallons : which was twice read.
Mr. Cambreleng explained the reasons
for introducing this bill—the state of our
trade with South America, and the obsta
cles to it arising from the present law on
th s m b eet.
Air. Trimble, of Ky. opposed the bill, as
loading to frauds on the revenue ; and took
a view of the course of legislation hitherto
pursued in relation to our revenue laws—
he deprecated any further relaxation of the
system.
Mr. Camhreleng replied.
The bill was laid on the table.
