META MORA, Cant. F. Barden,
WM. SEABKOOK, Copt. T. Lyon,
17 We are requested to call attention to tho
notice in this day's Georgian, of the meeting of
the Presbyteiy of Georgia.
The News from Mexico.
We are indebted to tho New-Orleans Picayune
for a slip containing interesting news from Mex
ico. Owing to a press .of other matter, we are
compelled to omit several items of interest. It
will be observed with regret, that the gallant Cap
tain Loyall and eighteen men of his company of
Georgia mounted men, and Capt. Walker of the
Mounted Rifles, with several of his men, have
boon killed in an encounter with a body of Mex
icans. Among tlio ollicurs who have leavo of ab
sence to return to the Uuited Slutes, wo obsorve
the name of Muj. R. D. A. Wade of tho 3d Artil
lery.
We are also indobted to the Delta for an Extra.
Fart* speak I.omlor tl»an Word*.
Arrival of the Southerner.—The steamer South
erner, Captain Borry, arrived at her berth last
evening, in eighty hours from Charleston. The
S. did not leave Charleston until Sunduy at one
o’clock, in consequence of there not being siilii*
cicut water ou the bar at hcrusiinl hour of sailing
on Saturday afternoon.—New York Commercial
Advertiser, Nop. 4.
Wo copy the abovo statement which wo find
in a New Yorkpaper,for the especial information
of those who would claim for Charleston an un
disputed right to become the great outlet to the
Atlantic, for the golden stores of the luxuriant val
leys of the West, and would ask in candour is
Uiis tho Harbor tliut courts tho commerce of the
world? whilst “Savannahstands isolated on uriver
of that name several miles from the ocean.”
Wu would further add that at no time und un
der no circumstances would tho Southerner meet
detent : on in crossing our bar, as large class vessels
arrive and depart heavily laden without regard
to time or tide, feeling perfect safety iu crossing
the bur ut uny hour of day or night.
t7 The Republican of yesterday contained
an urticlu copied from tho Augusta Chronicle &
Sentinel of tho 3d Inst., in which tho Editors of
that paper contradicted, ou tho authority of a
nameless gentleman, a statement which appeared
iu the Georgian, of the 21)tli ult., relative to tho
rejoicing of tho Whigs hi the town of Auburn,
(Ain.,) on hearing of tho death of President
Polk.
We would congratulate ourselves, could wc
but erase Horn our tablet one of the many ebuli-
tions of partisan venom, discharged by the most
bigoted presses und leaders of the Whig party, or
remove the impression that Whiggery looks upon
tile principles of the Democratic party os being
too pure to suffer from its assaults, und lieuco
the necessity of traducing tho character of the
lenders of tliut party, mid the causo of rejoicing
when one of its stars becomes extinguished.
Bat with numerous evidences of tho contrary
before ns, wo cannot indulge the hope that the
statement of the Georgian was oven magnified ou
the occasion referred to, as one of its editors was
in Alabama attho time, ami doubtless possesed cor
rect information of die fucts to which ho ulludcd.
they had a charity fund of $15,000 in tho county
of Glynn, besides $1000 contributed as a Hoc
ftmd by the bequest of Mr. Peter Mostie, but he
hbped that the Scriptural maxim would be carried
odt) that td thdio who hare.mucb, much will be
gived. A report front McIntosh, he stated, had
boen handed in to tho Executive.
Mr. Lawton and two or three Other Senators,
presented at tho Clerk's desk written reports.
Other Senators stuted that reports front their
respective counties had been handed iu at the Ex
ecutive office.
Others, and a largo number, stated that they
had no reports to make.
The Report of tho Board of Visitors was then
read, and on motion, received and filed.
The appointments of Hou. Geo. W. Town*,
James Hamilton Coupcr, Esq., Hon. A. H. Chap,
pell, Hon. Win. Law, and three othora, os Trus
tees to fill vacancies, were confirmed.
Mr. Berrien rose and in some appropriate re
marks expressed tho regret he felt that the meet
ing* of tiie Sonants Academicu* were considered
but formal meetings to receive the Report of the
Board oftiio Trustees of the University of Geor
gia. After some general remarks ho read from
the Charter to show that tho Scnatus Academicns
was established to promote tho interests of educa
tion generally throughout the State, aud conclu
ded by submitting a resolution earnestly recom
mending to the Senators elect to the next Legis
lature, to furnish themselves with the means of
giving to the next Legislature, the information
contemplated in the provisions of the charter.
Mr. Dunagan made some remarks to show tho
difficulties under the Poor School Law of acquir
ing all the information desired. Mr. Berrien
stated that his resolution hud u general applica
tion. The resolution was then carried without a
dissenting voice.
Mr. Dougherty moved that tho Governor bo
authorized to publish the resolution just passed in
such form as ho may deem necessary, to give due
notico of the smile.
Mr. Dawson remarked that the whole subject
was provided for by law. It belonged to the
Trustees of the County Academies to make re
ports, as specified in Prince's Digest, p. 228—
and iiiretiturks of some length Mr. D. indulged
in anticipations of a glorious future on the sub
ject of education.
Mr. Dun igau, of Hall, made some remarks,
during which lie stated that there wu* a private
Academy iu his county, but he did not report it as
some gentlemen hud done Academies in their
counties.
Mr. McDonald, of the Board of Trustees,made
some remarks, during which ho stated that there
was no Common School System in the State, be
cause there was no fund to support it. He ad
vocated an abolition of the present system, if sys
tem it could he styled, as the Academic fund lias
been merged in tho Poor School fund,which
is n mere pittance and does no good. He advo
cated tho possiug of such laws by the Legislature
us would effect tho object desired.
The resolution requesting tho Governor to
cause the resolution to be published was then pas
sed, and on motion, the Sonatas Acndeinicns was
adjourned sins die. The Senate then adjourned
until to-morrow morning, ut 10 o’clock.
Yours, B.

MILLF.DGEVILLE, Nov. 8, 1847.
As my letter was closed at noon, I was not able
to forward the bullotings for Solicitor of the East
ern District. Mr. Gattldon of Liberty was elect
ed on the third trial. By reference to the balloting*
it will bo scon that on tho first Mr. Gnuldou re
ceived at leust ono fourth of his party vote. There
were three good and firm Domocruts absent, ono
from sickness, ami two who had not returned
from a visit to thnir homes to pass tho Sabbath.
They arrivod too luto. Two of tho Whigs, I
learn, wore absent. Thus ends tho financial of-
fort of the Whig party to elect Solicitors General,
If as a party they hud nominated a candidate
for each district, ns did tho Democratic party, who
ureiuthe minority, they would have saved a sum
to tho State on which in soiiio future political
campaign they may have prided themselves as a
party. But they huvo done littlo else for several
day* than to consume the time of tho member*
and destroy their physical strength for more im
portant business, all ut tho expense of about $900
per day, a sum at which a gentleman who knows,
estimates tho daily expenses of the Legislature.
Not a Democrat has, as yet, been elected.
A« soon us tlio elections wore concluded about
half past VI o’clock, the two Houses adjourned ;

Tlie ftoamsiup New Orleans, Capt- Auld, arri
ved ibis morning, having left Vera Cruz on the
lrtinst- * v
The British courier arrived at Vera Cruz on the
31st October, having left Mexico on the 29th, to
which date we have letters endpaper*.
Gen. Lane entered Puebla on the 13th ult. with
3000 men and *ix pieces of artillery—so says a
despatch of Santa Anna. The latter could effect
nothing against him bn the Pinal.
Gen. Smitii had been appointed Governor of
the city of Mexico. Gon. Quitman is nboutto re
turn to tho United Sthtes.Gen. Shield*,Capt Phil.
Kearny, Capt. Paris, Lieut. Kigcr, and other of
ficers will accompany him.
From the Purango Journal of the 14th ult. is de
rived the information, that the U. S. frigate Ports
mouth trrived in the water* of Mozatian on the
2d September, from Monterey, in California. The
U. 8. squadron, consisting of the frigates Con
gress, Dale, the Cyane, and a transport, left Mon
terey on the 1st of September, for Mazutlan aud
San Bios, aud for those of Guaymas and Acapul-
the candidate of the opposing parties. Nearly
all the officers of the dispersed anhy were at
Queretaro, and it is said found it hard to obtain
subsistence.
The Star of the 16th says the assassination of
American sotyiers by the Mexicans had again
commenced. Sergeant 8utiiffe, of the Rifles,
wa/ killed tho night before. A private of one of
the infantry regiments was also kilted the samo
night, and it wo* reported that two other* were
killed.
Gens. Rittcon arid-Bravo have been exchanged
for CapU. Heady and C. M. Clay, and other
Encamacion prisoners.
There has been a revolution in Guadalajara.
Mr. Kendall thiuks Gomez Farias is at the bot
tom of it.
Wo have thrown the above items together iu the
utmost hasto, and without an opportunity to ar
range or revise them. In our next paperjour
details of events will be more ample and we hope
more consistent.
Tho health of the army is far from being good.
The climate of tho valley of Mexico i* not, as it
appear*, congenial to the constitutions of the
South. It is just as enervating and fatal to the
southern, as that of Vera Cruz to the northern
constitutions. The effective force of the entire
army is reduced ten or fifteen per cent.
The city of Mexico was filled with rumors of
peace. It was said that a quorum had met at Quer-
etaro, and that tho majority decided iu favor of an
amicable adjustment of ditficultiea.
The train which is to come down will bo under
the command of Col. Harney. A great number
of wounded officers ore to accompuny.
Major Guinea, Capt. Cassius 31. Clay, Captain
Heady, Major Borland, Capt. Danly, and Mid
shipman Rogers conic home, and we are happy
to add our associate, Mr. Kendall.
Mr. Bankhead, the British 31 blister, arrived nt
Vera Cruz on the 30th ult. and was received with
military honor*.
A letter from an English liotiso dated Puebla,
October 20th, has been received at Vera Cruz
from which our correspondent makes the follow
ing extract;
Puebt.a, October 20,1817.

Tlio principul part of tlio force recently under
Santa Auiiu is understood to have inarched for
Puebla. Being entirely unprovided for, they sub
sisted by rapine nnd plunder.
Lieut. E. B. Daniels, of the 2d Artillery, has
died of his wounds.
It is said, aud we believe truly, that Captain
Walker, of the Rifies, was killed iu tho affair at
Iluamantlu. Capt. W. left the castle of Perote
in command of three compunies in advance of
Gen. Lane’s train. Nine miles south of Puebla
ho met900 Mexicans, said tube under the imme
diate command of Sunta Anna. In charging,
Captain W. received a lance wound entirely
through the body, and ulso lost a leg by a cannon
shot. His personal antagonist in tho charge, and
whohuiccd him was a celebrated guerrilla chief;
it is said ho had sworn vengeance against Capt.
W. But lie, too, fell iu the conflict, and by
Walker's hands, receiving two balls from his re

MILLEDGEVILLE, Nov. 8, 1647.
The Senate met ut three o’clock, P. 31. and
after culling the roll, on motion of Mr. Moore, a
Committee,composed of Messrs. Moore, Irwin,
ami Stapleton,was appointed to wait on tlie Board
of Trustees aud inform them that the Senate was
prepared to receive them in the Seuate Chamber.
The Committee soou returned with the Board of
Trustees, preceded by Governor Towns and
President Church. The Trustees in attendance
were Hon. C. J. McDonald, Hon. C. J Jenkins,
(Speaker,) Hon. J. 3f. Berrien, Hon. .Murk A.

Governor Towns presided, with Hon. A. J. Mil
ler, President of the Seiiute, on hi* right, aiidRev
Alonzo Church, D. D., on hi* left. The Secre
tary, Anbury Hull, Esq., read tho minutes of last
meeting, when Dr. Church read the report of the
Trustee* of the College to the Seuatu* Acwdem-
ieus. After some general remarks on tho morals
of the student* ami regretting the limited means of
the college, he urged the necessity of increasing
the means of the college.
We were glalified to hear recommended n Pro
fessorship of Agricultural Chemistry. Would it
be unwise, he asked, for the State to encourage
such a branch of study, which would, send forth
throughout thu Statu men enlightened on hiicIi
u subject us Agriculture. Tho propriety of ad
vancing tlio cause of education, by enlarging the
sources which emanate from the college, wn* ably
and emphatically urged. Without this a proper
Mystem of Cauiuiuu School education, so much
desired in our State, can hardly be accomplished.
The college library whs stated at about 8,000 vol
umes. Tho philosophical nnd college apparatus
hus been much enlarged. A cubiuet of minerals
has been udded. The’number of students is now
147. The report was referred to tfife Senate.
The Report of tlie Treasurer,’ presenting a
healthy condition of tlie finances of tho institu
tion, was then read, and on motion, the saute was
received.
The roll of the Senators was called for report*
from their respective counties.
3Ir. Forman made u verbal report, etating tha

This is a longer time than any vessel bus been

Prime, Ward Sf Co.—The President and Direc
tors of the Jefferson county bauk obtninod u judg-
nieiit some time since in the Supreme Court of
New York,against 3IessrH.Priiue,Ward A Co.for
$80,000; und the-defendants subsequently made
payment* which reduced tho amount due on the
judgement to about $70,000. In the course of
last month, an action wa* brought by plaintiff* on
thu judgment for the recovery of the last men
tioned sum, and immediately afterwurd* had them
arrested under a Stillwell warrant, on tlie ground
of fraud. After a patient hearing of the case,
Judgo Edmonds of tlie Supreme Court evermled
nil tho objections made by the defendants, and sus
tained the warrant. Tho counsel of Prime,Word
A Co. upplied for a postponement of the order
uutil tho afternoon of Wednesday, in order that
Im might make up his mind what course to pur
sue, whether to bring tho defendant* up by writ of
habeas corpus to tlie Supreme Court, or to ap
peal from the decision. The 3Ianhuttan Bunk,
the next largest creditor, ho* also issued u Still
well warrant; and the Bonk of Commerce ha*
ulso issued a Stillwell warrant for $10,315.

The Two Federal Factions on the War.
Eveiy new offort made by our opponent* to
take and define their position on tho war question
plunge* them still deeper into difficulties, and
opens upon them still wider the flood-gates of ridi
cule. They try in vain to harmonize their voices
iuto one chorus. The leaders tend the air with
their hands,and run up and down the whole politi
cal gamut,from tho first to tlio last; but all without

Lo.vdo.y, Monday, Oct. 18, 18-17.
We have no improvement to notice in the
money market since our last report of the 4tii
inst. Indeed, discounts out of door* have been
still more difficult eveu at advanced rates, and nu
merous failure* have again taken pluce. The
fund* have declined considerably, consols having
at one time been sold for money as low us 80J
nerccnt., and Exchequer bills at 33s discount.—
They have been still further depressed thi* P. 31.
owing to the stoppuge of tho Royal Bank of Liv
erpool, und Consols closed at 79J per cent, for
Exchequer Bills 27* discount. *
SUSP fZ - 10 * -»
and throughout tho nmuufiicturing districts; und
fu •
where sale* have been forced, a further ducliuc
in prices have been obliged to bo submitted to,
whether applying to raw materials or manufac
tures. Uuuor tiie respective heads, will ho found
our remark* on each article. Wu may add, how
ever. that in most instance* so littlo business hus
been done that prices must bo considered purely
nominal.
Cotton is ns dull us can be at Liverpool and
here, during the past fortnight, wc have done ab
solutely nothing. Price* of American have again
declined about jjd. and other kind* nearly .jd per
lb, with n still downward tendency. Import* to
and stocks on the 1st inst., were os' follows, viz :
Great Britain, 1840, imports, 1,099,500; 1817,
935,772. Stock*, 1840,783,227; 1847,488,089

total 1,013,000; 1847, imports, 429,235; total,
1,305,007; 1340, stocks, 107,347; total, 894.501:
stock* 1847,115,090 ; total 003,179.
Corn.—Wo are again cheaper for wheat nnd
flour, with dull murketa ; English wheat to-da
sold 3s. per quarter lower, thus losing the ml
vance noticed in our last,while foreign wu* 2s to 3s
nor quarter, nnd flour Is to 2s per barrel cheaper.
Wc have had large arrivals of wheat from Russia,
&c\, and increased supplies of home growth.—
Indian Corn is quite neglected ut tho moment.—
The following are our nearest quotations, viz
United State* red wheat 40 to <15s per imperial
quarter; do white. 37 to 51* for do do. Do flour,
25 to 27s per barrel; superfine best brands Uni
ted States flour 23 to 24s per barrel. Infuriorand
sour Indian Corn 30 to 35s per 430 pouuds.—
Barley, 21 to 22s per imperial quarter. Oats,
18 to 20s per imperial quarter.
Iron.—Price* are sustained for commno bar
and rails, but Scotch pig ha* declined to £3 to 3
2* Gd in tiie Clyde ; wo quote bars £8 15, and
rails £8 10s to 9, free, on board. Welch aud
Swedish could be brought to-day at £115s per
ton. Lead without change. Rice is 2s lower,
and little doing nt the reduction ; East India car
go 10s to 10s Gdi'Beugul 11s to 15* per cwt;
Carolina, dressed in U. States, about 20* to 21*c
In the present position of the money market wc
have no transactions in American stock* to notice,
but there appear* no disposition to force wiles.
COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL.
The disastrous monetary pressure recorded ill
our last advices has during tiie last fortuight con
tinued to rage with unabated noverity, involving
several additional failure* and diffusing a deep and
impenetrable gloom throughout the whole com
mercial community of Great Britain. To such u
point of intensity ha* the inaccessibility of money
now arrived, that there is scarcely any one house
which can be looked noon without suspicion, no
matter however exalted it* position, while a feeling
of unmitigated anxiety is every where porccptT
ble.
Among the moro recent failures wo have to nn-
the stoppage* of Thomas,Son & Lefettre,
an old established Brazil house; De Jersey A Co.,
of Manchester, Eurday, Brother* A Co., of Lon-,
don, whose liabilities are put down nt £450,009;
Little A Co., also of London; J. A W. Morloy,
warehouse-men of Manchester L Phillip son,
Sons A Co., London; .Mocatta & Son, of Liver
pool? Southam of Ashton under Lyne; E. A J.
Andrews, Manchester; White A Co., and Water
ford A Co. We may avoid enumeration, by stat
ing that altogether fifty-five house* have either
broken down or suspended payment since the de
parture of the last steamer.
Yesterday it was announced that tiie Royal
Bank of Liverpool had been compelled to sus
pend payment, and the information turned out to
je too correct. At present it is impossible to
give any thing like a reliable statement of the po
sition of the establishment, but it is understood to
possess asset* sufficient to meet all it* liabili
ties.
In the present state of universal confusion and
alarm, it can well be conceived how deeply manu
facturing operations have boen affected, and busi
ness appears to bo quite at a stand still, without
tho slightest pro*pect of a reaction, although good
orders are stated to be held by many firm*, but iu
the present position of monetary affairs, they ab-
Mozart* and Bellinis—tlio political Do Meyer*
and Ole Bulls-might a* well try to extract a
union of either sweet or bitter sound* from n con
gregation of languages, a* uukuowu to each other
a* those which filled tho tower of Babel.
In New York, a few days ago, the Federal lead*
or* took ground in favor of the further prose
cution of the war, but not with any degree of, or
indeed any approach to, unanimity. The Chair-
mau decided that Colonel Webb’* resolution*
were carried, more, it is stated, from hi* own pre
judices, than because ho was convinced by the
popular expression. In Pennsylvania, 3Ir. Ran
dall, in a string of resolutions, nearly as long
tho moral law, avowed pretty nearly the same
doctrines before tlie late election. And yet, even
here, ull tiie leading papers of the opposition,
take ground against the war, and in favor of its
speedy, if even it* dishonorable termination.
Tlie same may be said of every other State in the
Union. There are two parties in each on the
question of the war.
Blit it is hard to say which of these two parties
is in tiie most laughable predicament. Unques
tionably tlio party wholly opposed to tlie war,
and in favor of its speedy close, occupies the
most consistent position: and yet most of this
party declared tlmt the war existed by the net of
Moxico—Corwin, himself, admitted that lie voted
for what ho asserted ho knew was “a great lie.”—
3Ir. Webster, who made tlie late treasonable
speech, at Springfield, Massachusetts, gave a sim
ilar voto. And yet, having so recorded their
opinion* on thi* grave, initial question—the im
mediate provocation to a war which our
troops wore expressly ordered not to seek—the
leaders of this faction of Federalism uow de
nounce tho war, and clamor for its conclusion'
The very men that voted in favor of the war, and
recorded their votes to await the judgment of pos
terity—tho very politicians that declared that the
suid war existed by the act of 3(exico—now say
that the war was unnecessary, that it ia cruel, that
it could buve been avoided. 3Ir. Webster, it is
truo, like .Mr. Corwin, add* to his invocation in
favor of stopping the war, that it is waged for
tho purpose of acquiring territory. And yet,
3Ir. Webster, while only u few years ago Secre
tary of State, took measures to secure thu acqtii-
Hition of California, even without reference to
thu Wilmot Proviso I Such is the position of the
party in the opposition which denounces the war,
and, in order to induce its termination, will re-
fttso to vote supplies to our troops.

(licnuieut. This party, and it* leaders and organ*
are against acquiring axy territory, bond or free,
from Mexico, a* indemnity for our losses and
our wrongs nt her hands: but they “will vote
men aud money to prosecute tho war to a success
ful and honorable close.”. Wo question if there
ever was a more absurb position occupied by any
party before or since the day* of Anti-masonry.
Those who read, up oak, nnd write, in it* favor,
nre themselves best convinced of it* wretched fol
ly; for they attempt to sustain it by still more con
temptible logic. They seem to urguu with the
consciousness that every body i* laughing nt
them.
Tlio idea of voting means to carry on tlio war
“vigorously,” is well enough, aud is intended to
delude those in the Federal ranks who arc hon
estly in favor of it; while the idea of refusing any
territory from .Mexico, ns indemnity, is intended
to captivate thosewho arc opposed to coiiqticstaml
acquisition. How fur thuse two propositions as-
siiiiilute, the reader can sec for himself. They nre
cither sincerely or insincerely presented. If the
first, they ask our country to prolong the war,
begun, says 31r. Webster und .Mr. Corwin, by tlie
act of .Mexico, simply for tlie livos that may be
lost in it* prosecution. If the latter, they insult
und dishonor tho people before the world, by an
appeal to an alleged ignorance,tiie most degrading
und debased.
Such is the position of the two parties in the
Federal ranks on this grave and important ques
tion. Contrast it with that occupied by the De
mocracy. Let tiie bold policy which animates
the latter, and which leads them to support tlie
war ardently, and to look forward, almost with
out exception, to extending the area of freedom
by valuable acquisitions from Mexico, as the in
demnity for our injuries, past nm! nresent, be
contrasted with tiie ridiculous and hollow-hearted
expedient of either of tlio factions of Federalism
in their transparent attempts to deceive the peo
ple. Wa do not fear the verdict which tlio peo
ple will render upon thi* *ubjcct, when nationally
presented to them.
Commodore De Kay has, from lii* own private
funds, paid every cent of the expenses or the re
cent voyage of the Macedonian, amounting in tho
uggregato to many thousand dollars.

There’s something in a ki*s—though I cannot re

It never comes amiss—not even when you steal it.
You cannot taste a kiss, and sure you cannot

But still there i* a bliss communicated through it.
I am well convinced there is a certain something

Though blit a simple kiss—we wisely strive to

There’s pleasure in a kis*—if nothing else would

Mason nni Dixon's Line.—As ’early as 1682,

Lord Baltimore, respecting tiie construction of
their respective grant*, the debateable land being
