The late Sennrnrlnl Election— 1 The Decapitation
** r •* »•»** crcnt Financier.”
The lute Senatorial election will furnish a topic
of most interesting speculation. The result has
been u triumph of which Judgo Berrien and his
immediate friends may justly be proud. Not n
solitary principle has ho yielded, not an inch of
the stroug Federal ground which he has occu
pied for some years past, has he abandoned;—
with Crawford and Dougherty (not to mention
lesser lights,) in the field against him, and, as it
has been said, with several of the Whig membors
of tho Legislature pledged to their constituents to
vote against him, ho husdistuuced all competition,
has reached the goal “with flying wheels,” and
home oil’ the paint in triumph. Much as we de
precate the whole political creed of the Hon. Sen
ator, we cannot but admire the display of power
which has been furnished by this election. The
uncompromising advocate of Federal measures—
he has forced into his support uton who openly
denounce his principles. With ambitious oppo
nents arrayed against him, using every udvantngo
which his boldness in political change has furnish
ed them of lute years, he Ims cast them all com
pletely in the shade, and placed himself in u po
sition of controlling- ascendency never to bo dis
puted again.
Judge Berrien is the leader, the unquestioned
leader—nay,in the lungungc of the ancient schools,
ho is the master of tho Whig party in Georgia; but
wo shall have occasion to inquire frequently here
after, whether ho occupies a similar position to
wards a majority of the peoplo of the State ho has
been again chosen to represent. What will be
said hy that highly respectable portion of his own
party, who have been open in their opposition to
him and his principles 1 Will they bo ready to en
dorse tho course of their representatives ? Will
they, too, be prepared to abandon the ground they
are known to lmvo assumed, nnd to take to their
horems u politician whose whole career they lmvo
loudly condemned l Lot not the Whigs of the
nation he deceived! Let it not he supposed that a
majority of die people of Georgia are favorably dis
posed to thoso doctrines of which Judge Berrien
has been a prominent advocate! They arc ueitli-
nr tho supporter* of the tariff of ’42, nor the op
ponents of the acquisition of territory. And the
veteran Senatormusteitliershift his position upon
these questions, or he will breuk up his party in
Georgia forever.
Mr. Dawson goes into the Senate uncommitted
to the Whig principle of opposition to tho war
and to the acquisition of territory. It was gener
ally said, and generally believed in Milledgcville,
that lie concurred with Judge Berrien in few or
none of his views. Whether this coincidence,
so limited before the nomination, has become
more gen yral since, it will require time to deter
mine.
But George W. Crawford, “the great finan
cier,” where is lie? Echo answers, where!—
“ 67e transit gloria inunili;" thus will the greatest
of humbugs come to n close! For four years
past have the Whig trumpeters sounded the ge
nius, tho virtue, tho patriotism, the unpurullelcd
services of his departed Excellency. The name
of Crawford was tho watch-word of Georgia
Whiggcry. From the legislative hall down to the
cross-road gathering, Crawford! was tho cry!
Before his miraculous powers ns n financier, all
the pecuniary difficulties of the State hud vanish
ed like morning mists before tho rising sun. lie
had displayed a compass of mind which ut once
took in the broadest of principles, and tho nar
rowest of details, which tore up the pine and pick
ed up the needle. What wonder was it, there
fore, that tho conviction should lmvo been pro
duced upon hi* mind that lie. Georgo W. Craw
ford, was infallible, and that iu consequence of
such conviction he should have over-ridden the
laws of the State in order to gratify personal pre
dilections. Ilis electiou to the Senate was regar
ded an one of those certain events iu the future,
which had already become history; and he retired
from the arena of strife, not like the defeated can
didate of Lucede mo ilia, rejoicing that Sparta
had three hundred worthier sons than he, bill firm
ill the belief that Millcdgeville lmd no such Whig
as George W. Crawford. Wlmt a fall was there,
my country men! Worse than Dougherty’s, be
cause experience lmd taught tho latter to expect
little, and “ he that expucteth nothing shall not be
disappointed.”

[Correspondence of tho Savunnalt Georgian.]
MILLEDGEVILLE, Nov. 13.
Gentlemen—On turning to Uie Journal of the
House for yesterday morning, I find that Mr.
Clark, of Chatham, introduced a bill to repeal an
act to alter and umund the several acts relating to
the Court of Common Fleas and Oyer nnd Ter
miner for tho City of 3nvnunah,so far as relates to
tho Shcriffofsaid Court, nnd to allow snid Sheriff
certain fees which are not provided for by law,
nnd to iucrcaso his Fees in cortniu cases ami to
allow him to appoiut special Deputy Sheriffs in
certain cases. In this bill are embodied two foe
bills under thosoveral titles of “Special or Extra
ordinary Courts.” and “Regular terms of Court.”
The object and contents of this bill are above
truly described.
Mr. Clark also introduced a bill for the relief
of the Bank of the State of Georgia. Not having
had time to examine this bill, I cannot inform you
of any of its provisions.
Mr. Bartow introduced a bill to exempt from
militia duty tho officers nnd privutes of the City
Watch of Snvannah.
Mr. Robinson, of Coweta, introduced a bill to
incorporate the Atlanta and West Point Railroad
Company, &c.
The iiicilicut family ncom destined to recoivo a
share of Legislative attention. Mr. Darnell in
troduced a bill to repeal the Law now iu force
regulating tho Practice of Physio nnd Surgery,
in this Slate, nnd to revive tho act passed 24th
December, 1825, regulating tho snmo, Ac.
Tho House has just assembled, and having
rend the Journal,, are now proceeding with the
call of the Counties. Tho lobby and gallery are
thronged with anxious countenances, waiting the
electiou of United States Senators, appointed
for this morning. Iu n few moments all specu
lation as to tho result will give way to tho reality.
I have just been favored with an examination
of the bill rolativo to tho Atlanta & West Point
Railroad. This bill provides that the Road shall bo
constructed between tho town of Atlanta,or some
convenient point on the Macon & Western Rail
road, hetwuen tho city of Griffin and Atlanta, to
West Point, iu Troup County; that tho cupitnl
stock iu snid Company shall not exceed two mil
lions of dollars to bo divided into shares of a hun
dred dollars oacb; a Board of Directors consist
ing of seven shall bo appointed. The organiza
tion prescribed for tho Company, is similar to that
ofcorporate bodies. It also providos that the Cap
ital Stock shall not bo taxed by the State higher
than ono half of ono per cent, upon its nett in
come, and no other tax shall bo levied upon it.—
Tho bill further providos, penally, that malicious
injury to the Rond shall bo punished hy impris
onment in the Pcnitontiury for not less tliuu two
years, at tho Court's discretion.
Tho Legislature has just elected the Hon. John
M. Borriey a Senator to the U. S. Congress.—
The votes stood, for Mr. Berrien 8!)—for Gun.
McDonald 86—Blank 1. Mr. Berriou’s term
dates from the 4th of March, 18-17.
I lmvo only time to say, that on balloting the
first time for the 2d Scnntor, to servo from tho 4th
March, 181ft, the vote stood, for Dawson 88—for
Colquitt 85—Dougherty 4. Another ballot has
just commenced, but iny time has runout and I
must scud this oil’. They vote like a funeral pro
cession, slow and solemn.
Iu haste, yours, respectfully.

Tho cull then proceeded,—and but that tho chauge
seemed unnecessary iu thnt particular instance,

of the proceeding, nnd had nothing to regret but
that tho mode, instead or being an exception, did

And thus the long agony is over. Judges Berri
en and Duwson havo boon chosen to represent
tho sovereignty of Georgia iu the Senate of tho
United State.*. The Democrats on the lost ballot
bestowed most of their votes upon the hero of
Corro Gordo, as a testimonial of their higli re
gard.
Tho regular elections of tho session having
now been disposed of, it is presumable Uie Gen
eral Assembly will procood dispassionately to the
work of lcgisluUou. Many bills of local interest
wore reported this morning, nnd ono or two
goneral affairs, which I may notice hereafter.
Mr. Speir, of Pike, luid ou the tablo a pream
ble and resolutions relating to Fedoral affairs.
They are simply a copy of those introduced in
the Senate by Mr. Duuagan, already noticed by
you. When printed I will forwnrd you a copy.
The debates upon theso rcsoluUoas may per
haps occupy some time, ntid be extremely anima
ted. On tuoUou of Mr. Jackson, of Walton,
those of Mr. Speir wero referred to the Commit
tee on the State of Uio Republic.
An incident occurred just as Uio' Clerk was
about to call Uie roll for voUng, which created
some scnsaUon. Gen. Williamson, the Senator
from Newton County, moved that Uie ordinnry
manner of proceeding in cases of elecUon be
dispensed with, and thnt each member come for
ward airigly at tho call of hia name, and give in
his vote; also, that tho count should not commence
until every member had voted. He said instances
lmd occurred in which n mombor had voted ihoro
than ono ticket: and he wished to giiurd ngainst a
fraudulent or accidental repetition of such nthing.
This motion was strenuously resisted by .Mr.

From a letter iu Uie Delta we make the follow
ing interesting extracts:
Vera Cruz. Nov. 3,1847.
Eds. Delta—But few items of ne ws have reach
ed this city from the capital of .Mexico. Mr. Bauk-
liend, the lato British Minister to Mexico, came
down, hut ho studiously avoided making disclo
sures ofany facts in his possession worth forward
ing to you. His opinion ns to die improbability
of ponce being soon established between the two
countries negatives tho idea of nn early adjust-
mont of Uio'war. Tib udinitsthat there is a pow
erful party, in Mexico .in favor of peace, but not
enough to carry out their wishes. A peace is
less desired by Uio Americun Army Uian it can
possibly be by Uie’Mexicau people. It amounts
to almost a unanimous opinion here dint we ought
to take and hold the entire country.. We have it
on pretty good authority that seventy members of
the Mexicuu Congress, voted for peace. I trust
that Mr. Trial will go homo and leave negotiations
to the “God v of; Battles” yet awhile.
Tho British courier came iu on the 31st nit., but
wo receive^ leas news by him than you will have
received from him before you get this. It is ren
dered certain tiiat Gon. Quitman goes home for a
limited period, and that Gon. Smith has succeeded
him ris governor of the city. Gon. Shields also
S acs home, for reerdution only. His wound is
oing well. Col. llarncy is on his way to this
place, with a largo train loaded witii sick and
Mr. Dtnmgan’rt Resolution*.
As Uio Representatives of Georgia, one bf tho
momburs of Uiis confederacy, it is right und pro
per to give an expression of opinion and senti
ment in reference to the measures and policy of
Uie Gouerul Government: therefore,
Bo it resolved by the Senate and House bf Re-
8 re.seillative.*, That the General Government of
. te United States ought to raise no more roveuue,
in timo of peace, titan is necessary to dufruy tho
expenses of its economical administration; and
that iu adjusting a tariff on imports for this object,
Uio duties should be assessed upon tho ad valorem
priucinlc.
2. llo it resolved, See. Thnt the tariff of 1846
approximates as nearly to these requisites as is
practicable .in u country of such diversified und
conflicting intorost* ns ours: and that tho pros
perity of tho commercial, agricultural und liiunu-
factoring pursuits of the United .States, under its
benign operation, demonstrates the iustico nnd
wisdom of its provisions, us well us the folly of
its repeal.
3. lie it resolved, See., That In consequence of
tho existing war with MexicOf.it becomes necessa
ry to iucrcaso the revenue upon imports: tlioro
should be no departure from the ud valorem prin
ciple, nor ought it to fttrnish any pretext for un
just discriminations Ibr the mere suite of protec
tion; but that such increase of revenue should bo
raised by duties on articles now freo of duty un
der tlm existing tariff law.
,4. Be it resolved, &c., That tho Congress of
the United States has no constitutional power to
incorporate a National Bank, and thnt the success
ful operation oftho Independent Treasury provos
conclusively Umt such au institution is lint neces
sary as a fiscal ugont for Uio receipt, custody, und
disbursement of die public funds.
5. Bo it resolved, &c., That the Congress of
the United States hns no constitutional power to
appropriate public money for the construction of
works of internal improvement, except such us
are strictly of a national character.
6. Bo it resolved, &c., That tho distribution
oftho sulus of tho public lands is inexpedient and
uuwise, because it would create a necessity for an
increuso of tariff dude.*, to the extent that such
proceeds uddto ths annual revcuuo oftho Govern
ment.
7. Bo it resolved, &c., Tlmt the judicious ex
ercise of the veto power by the Executive oftho
United' States,is the only protection of the minor
ity ngainst the rash, foolish, or unconstitutional
action oftho majority, and therefore nny modifi
cation of that clause of tlio Constitution of the
United States which vests that power in the Presi
dent, would ho unwise and peculiarly dangerous
to the Southern portion of this confederacy.
8. Be it resolved, &c. Tlmt lamentable us are Uio
evils of war, they are preferable to uu unjust ami
dishonorable peace; audtlmt, as by tho act oftho
Republic of .Mexico, a state of war exists be
tween that Government mul UieJUuited States,
this Republic is not rcspousiblu for its conse
quences.
ft. Be it resolved, &c., Tlmt the existing war
witii Mexico ought to be prosecuted with tho ut
most vigor, until that Government shall agree to
pay all demands due to our Government ou ac
count of spoliations douo to our citizuns, ns well
ns a just indemnity for tho expenses incurred by
this Government in tho prosecution of the war
which she Ims forced upon its; ami tlmt if slio he
unable to do so in money, the United States
should insist upon her ceding territory sufliciont
iu value to satisfy so just aim reasonable demands.
10. Be it resolved, &c., Thnt, in view of the
possible acquisition of territory by the United
States for tho purposo aforesaid, wo adept the
four following resolutions passed by tho General
Assembly of Virginia:
11. Resolved, &c., Tlmt tho Government of
tho United States Ims no control, directly or iudi-
rcctlyi'mediately or immediately over the institu
tion of SLAVERY; ami that, in taking unv such
control, it transcends the limits of its legitimate
functions hy destroying the internal organization
of tliu sovereignties which formed it.
12. Bo it resolved, &c., That under no cir-
ciuiutnncos will this body recognise as binding
any enactment of the Federal Government which
Ims for its object the prohibition of Slavery in any
territory to lie acquired either by conquest nr trea
ty south of the line of tlie Missouri Compromise,
holding it to bo die natural and imicpamlout right
of each citizen of each mid every Stuto of the
confederacy to reside with his property, of what
ever description, iu any territory which may be
acquired.
13. Be it resolved, &c., That this Assembly
hold* it to he tho duty of every man, iu every
scctiou of this confederacy, if the Union is dear
to him, to oppose the passage of nny law,for wlmt*
ever purpose, by which territory to be acquired
may be subject to such a restriction.
14. Be it Resolved, itc., Thnt tho passage of
the Wiluiot proviso, by the House of Represen
tatives oftho United States, makes it tho duty of
every slaveliolding Slate tiud the citizens thereof,
as they value their deurcst privileges, their sov
ereignity, their independence, and their rights of
property, to take firm, united, and concerted ac
tion in this emergency.
15. Bo it resolved, &c., That the firmness, jus
tice and wisdom with which Janies K. Polk Ims
conducted the administration of this Government,
both foreign ami domestic, entitle him to the con
fidence and gratitude of the people.
16. Be it resolved, See., Timt the thanks oftho
whole country uro clue to the gallant officers
aud men of our Army, Navy, and Volunteer
service, for tho glory with which they have cov
ered our arms, and" die heroic valor witii which
they have sustuiued their country’s cause on the
battle field.

Interesting Information from IFashington—
Tho Philadelphia Ledger of Uio 11th iiut says :
The letter of onr Washington correspondent this
morning, gives some interesting information rel
ative to the mission of Major Hobble, and to the
working of die cheap postage system in die Uni-
tod 8 tatos. Tho deficit in revenuo under die
now law from $800,000 (eight,hundred thou*,
sand) die first yeur, is this ye at 1 reduced to $40,-
a uniform system of cheap posfege, Wrnilnr to the
Ponny postage in Ertgland. This 1« gratifying ini
tclligenco,not only to tho friends of UuU measUre/
who so eurnestiy advocated^ in thefooofstrem
ou» opposition, but to the whole country, and ful
ly justifies tho predictions offthd result made by
Uio friotids of Uio law. *
Threaded Bank Notes.—Messrs. Crane & Co.,
of Dalton Massachusetts, manufacturers of bank
noto paper, havo invented a very simplo aud
®5* moU,od oI * preserving the denomination
ofa lull from alteration. Threads ofsilk or cotton
aro arranged in parallel lines, lengthwise witii
tho no'e, and embodied iu die substance ordio
nuper during its manufacture. A one dollar bill
bus ono thread, and ono is added for'efich denomi
nation tip to five dollars, then a ten dollar bill has
six threads, another is added for twenty, fifty, one
hundred, flvo hundred, and ono thausaud; the last
having eleven thronds. It must be very difficult,
if riot-impossible, to insert another thread after tho
note is finishedi and as die threads mark its value
as distinctly us (lid figures, tho chdtlces ofa success
ful alteration nro nt least very greatly diminished.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11, 6 P. M.—The flour
market continuesjliouvy, but there is still a good
demand for tho Enst. She sales to-day aro to the
extent of 5,000 barrels, nt $6,25 for Genesee nnd
Oswego. Some small lots of Howard street und
Petersburg brands wero sold at $6,50. Thippers
have entirely abandoned the markets.
Wheat is very dull, and on the decline, receivers
generally storing thoir supplies rather than sub-

white Genesee were sold at 1,3ft por bushel.
Corn was heavy, mid mixed sold us low ns 74
fonts. Round yellow was wanted, nnd about
10,000 bushels brought7ft cents.

sold to-day nt $3,25.
There is but a small supply of Rico iu the rifar-
kct. A few hundred tierces have sold at 4,061 a
,50,' closing nt $4,37£ for strictly prime—being
a decline of about 35 cts. per cwt.
Cotton is very dull, and bus declined since tho
receipt of the Washington’s nows about 4 ct per
