By the Steam Packet Mount Vernon, arrived last evening, wo received the Charleston Mercury ofTues- «^y, . It wan but yesterday, that wo announced in illus tration of tho mildness of tho scuson, that peach trees were putting forth their blossoms. Scarcely how ever, had we recorded the fact, when comes a chill north wester, the avtml courier of tho winter, blighting the delicate tints of tho flowers which had timidly arrayed their unseasonable beauties, & changing the bright hues, with which nature decks her productions in their prime, and in their more ripened perfection, to tho sober livery of the autumn. Tho trues arc already falling into the sear, tho yellow leaf, and all nature indicates the rapid decay of vegotablo life. There is a close analogy betweeuthe alternate seasons of the year, and the sea sons of man’s brief existence, and this, which is marked by the decline of vegetation and the approach of gloomy ■winter, “As down the ravaged globe JId travels on his native storm, Deflowering nature’s grassy robe And trampling on her failed form,”— Must uver more than any other, be pregnant with mat ter of reflection. Indeed no one can view tho full of the !*-af, and mark the change in the face of naturo which daily takes place before his eyes, without a seriousness akin to the melancholy which ho fcul* when those he has been nccustoincdto Intel in his daily path, arc removed from it: “To contemplation’s sober eye, Such U the 'race Of man t Aud they that creep ami they that fly Shall end where they began. Aliko the busy and the gay, \ Rut flutter through life's little day, In fortune's varying colors dress'd : Brush’d by tho hand of rough mischance, Or dull’d by ago, their airy dance They leave, in dust to rest.” ‘Yet the prusout is tho suason of plenty and o( re* ifard to the farmer and tho planter, and in the south, the feelings which it brings with it, are forgotten in tho pica. Cures derived from tho rc-unlon of absent friends and Oio revival of business—which after all addresses itself i/iorc closely to tho majority of mankiu J than the changc-3 in tho natural world. Wo have, however, abundant rca- •oo to bo grateful—tho teeming earth has been more prodigal of its bounties than usual, and has returned lu tho husbandman an ample remuneration lor his toils— tho prosperity of our dwelling place and the home where is garnered up ullour’utfei-tions, has increased,unit ulmvc all it has been blessed with that health, without which, the productions of the earth are ttscluss and wealth val ueless. Wliilit therefore, we draw a moral which may he useful front tho season, wo may not with tho less reti- wh rejoice in the prosperity which exists around us, nor feci less grateful for the benefits we have received. The general election took place in the city of New York, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday t lie id, 3d and 4th of this month. Thera nru no less than five tick ets Tor assembly each of which according to its support ers is of courso (o succeed, and each according to tho opinions oflta opposers to bo routed, “horse, foot and dragoons.” Ilussel Comstock,reformer and Cidcrist, according to previous appointment,attempted to address the people in tho I’ark at Now York on Sunday, on tho aubjeet of Na tional Education in goncrut ami his own election to the legislature in particular. By nmbiiion, however, fell tho angels,and so fell Russel Comstock; for his constitu ents having become moro uproarious tlmu was pleasing to old Ilayes or some other of the myrmidons of the police, ho was unceremoniously gall ante-1 to tho donjon keep of that ornament to tho city of New York,the Itiidcwcll —an appeal to (ho sovereigns for boil having been inef fectual. Ho was, however liberated m the evening nnd was on Monday as brisk os a Mile of his o-.vn beverage, in furthering his election. It is evident from this catas trophe that old Hays is of the opinion, that whether “re. pgiott is or is not to he taught in National Schools,” the uiveussion will not bo permitted under the nose of the Belies on a Sunday. The London paper called tho John Bull, recently gravely informed its readers, that the Royal Expedition from Havana lmd mndo good its landing at Tampico, at wlial is called the Bngiisli Turn, adding that the “fol lowing order of tho day was issued to the troop.’,” copy ing verbatim, tho order ortho day addressed by Manuel do Los Santos Guzman, commander of the 2d King’s battalion to his troops,arrived alN.

A petition from the same county was referred to a special committee- To amend the laws concerning guardianship of free persons of eolur. The following resolution was incorrectly reported in tny last : “ Resolved, That the Joint Committee on the Peni tentiary, bo instructed to inquire into and report to this House, as soon as practicable, the amount of monies collected in favor of the resolution since 1st January 1623, also tho value of tho stock of materials on hand* at that period, and.what Imre been the expenditures of the institution since that time, up to 1st Nov. same year.” A very useless institution, for all tho informa tion required, must be contained in the Commissioners’ report, already with die other documents in possession of die house. In die House on Saturday, the Bill from the Senate to extend the time fur drawers to take out dieir grants in the Land Lotteries of 1818, 1819 and 1821, was taken up, passed with a slight amendment, and sent back to the Senate, which shortly after reported its concurrence. This bill extends the time to 1st Nov. 1830, to take out granu at §8, after which all ungranted lands to become vested in the State. Time allowed orphans until three years after they become of ago. Lands drawn by per sons deceased since they gave in draws, idiots and lu natics, to be exempt from its operation. The law to be published once a inuu:h until the 1st November next in every Gazette of the State. , A resolution from Senate was concuired into thorizo tho Directors of tho Central Bank (after giving thirty days notice in die Milledguville papers) to sell lots reverted to the State at tho Indian Spring Reserve. A bill to pardon John Russell (not Rustun) for the murder of a slave in Ogkthorpo county, was read first time. Mr. Myers presented two petitions, one from Gene ral Hailey, praying for compensation fur services ren dered while Solicitor uf thu Chntahoouhiu Circuit, die other from Muj. John Scruvcn, praying for tho pay ment of certain audited ct rlificates. Referred to a sc leci committee, composed of Myers, Wayno & Chari- •on. Air.

To authorize the Sheriff nr any lawful Constable of Chatham County to enter the dwelling of Sailor Landlords, or any other place where just reason shall exist, founded on oath, dial regularly articled fugitive seamen are harbored or protected. By the politeness of a friend 1 liuvo had access to the report of the Directors of the Central Bank, which shews thu following as the stute of its fluids •— Actual Capital of the Bank, 51,027,316 00 Debts due tho State, and transferred to the Rank that since the transfer liuvo been paid, together with those that have been changed to debts duo to the Bank, according to die provisions of its charter, Interest on those debts up to the time of settlement, Tho amount of specie and specie funds on Ivan l at the date of the report is Bills issued amount to Bills in circulation amount to Notes discounted, Bills of Exchange discounted Profits of the Bank since it wont into operation, Expenses including salaries, commis sions, altering rooms and building fire proof vault, The actual Capital as given abovo is composed of Bank Stock and Bonds or Notes of individuals indebted to the .State. This bus been increased since the transfe r of die State funds in January and undergoes a gradual increase from tho payment of debts duo the State, of which tho Bank possesses no other evidence than tho accounts of sales. A number of Counties have not applied for their ap propriations. The money therefore after the expiration of die time limited for its distribution has been used in discounting bills of Exchange at four months. TJto inode of appropriating the discounts of the Bank was at dm rale of $1 fiO, for each white person, Tho sum set aside for Chatham was {17,333, of which JGOO lias been applied for and obtained. The Directors recommend certain alterations in the Charter, in order to facilitate the business of tho Bank, and forward tho object of its establishment, and enter into a full exposition ofits transactions. The concluding paragraph is os follows : “The object of tho Legislature in establishing tho Bnnk doubtless was to convert tho whole of dm funds of tho State into productive capital, on which tho interest should be paid at regular periods, and ho applied to do- Irny tho oxpenso of tho government; as well as by a ju- dicious addition, on a perfectly scciira basis, to tho cir culating medintn oftlm country, to roliovo, to soiiio ex tant , tho embarrassments ofits citizens.

In the land caso of Patterson (of Maryland) vs. Winn (of Franklin County, Geo.) a verdict for the defendant was returned, owing to a qopy of a grant not being re ceived in evidence in place of the original. Ttiir. case involves a claim to 18,000 acres of land, worth over 520,000. It will, no doubt, be carried to tho Supreme Court. AIcAUislor and Wilde for pluintiff— Seaborn Jones for defendant. Mr. Forsyth left herd yesterday for Washington. It would, I assure you, notwithstanding the hundred re porta of opposition, have token a very strong man to beat him—the sentiments of Mr. Gilmer and his promi nent friends being openly expressed against any opposi tion, in such an event tho whole of the Troup party with few exceptions, would have supported him. That op position ever existed in the Troup party, would not bo known, for the same harmony and unity of measures exist that ever have, with the same freedom of inter course and personal intimacy, that havo always charac terized it. The election for State House Officers is the subject ofinterest at present, and from the number of candidates, much electioneering goes on. Governor Troup left this on Monday, for his plantation, on' his way to Washington via Darien and Savannah—so that* we had hero at ono time, under the same roof, tho past, present and future Govemora of lids mighty State.

Maine Election.—The Saco Palladium gives the statu of parties in the Senate of that State as eight fa vorable to the admistraiion and nine in opposition. Tha Portland Courier of tho 2fith inst. publishes a list of tho I louse of Representatives designating those for Hunton and those for Smith, the result of which is that thcro are elected 75 tor Hunton, 63 for Smith, and 4 sentiments unknown.

Nfewp from litv.xico.'-OjiU of tho New Orleans Bee, Ott. 23.,— 1 Tito uchra. Cuhatv- ba, and Corrco, arrived yesterday lrotn Tam- pico, havo brought from that tho following distressing nows. Tho scarcity of provisions was so great that general alarm existed for the fate of tho troops stationed in its environs, as well as for tho pcoplo. Tho galo mention ed a few days ago, has caused groat destruc tion in Tampico, and in tho small towns in tho vicinity a number of small houses had been blown down. At tho niomont tho Correo sail ed from Tampico, news had been ruccived of the loss of tho scltr. Hound, and also of nno- tlier scltr. supposed to bo tho Eclipse, both from tliis port. The U. 8. sloou of war Hor net, which had been dispatched to Tampico to protect our commercial interests, suffered considerably during tho gale, and had been dismasted. After such distressing details, wo cannot decline the pleasure of mentioning un act of generosity and magnanimity of soul, winch honors, and must place very high in the esti- tiraation of his fellow citizens, tho author pf it We mean Gen. Santa Anna. A number of Spanish refugees, blinded by tho first suc cess of tho Spanish troops, had loft New Or leans in great hasto to join the division of Gen. Barradas, as soon thoy heard of his be ing in possession of Tampico, in tho persua sion that a few days would be sufficient to re conquer Mexico, and realize their chimerical hopes The fntnous capitulation broke tho charm, and Dipso unfortunates soon found themselves at the mercy of their enemies.— General Santa Anna hud the right of hav ing them shot, but ho was more merciful and gave them their liberty. Wo have this foot From ono oftlio passengers arrived yesterday from Tampico, and who himself owes his life to tho young hero of Vera Cruz.

October 20.—Tho French brig C aroline, of Nantz, lying same distance from Tampico, was entirely lost during the late galo. She had on board upwards of 8200,000 in specie together with a large number of Books be longing to commercial houses of Tumpico, where they had been transported for safety during the late invasion. Latest from Buenos Ayres.—By tho arrival oftlio brig Ruth, Copt. Jefferson, which left Nuenos Ayres Aug. 29, and Montevideo Sept. 3, we havo, says tho U. S. Gazette, tlirough the attention of Mr. Sanderson,of tho Coffee House, a file of papers from both pla ces. At Buenos Ayres, wo learn, all was quiet. Tho new administration has been arranged. All the newly appointed ministers havo entered upon tho discharge oftheir respective functions. Senore Eszalada, as Minister of war, has addressed a letter to General Juan Manuel Rosas, commandant of thu country districts, stating that the Government had authorized and given to the General full powers, to regu late the peace of the country, and relied upon hts known patriotism to carry it into effect. Thu new provisional governor of* the colony Jaun Jose Viumont, issued a proclamation on the 20th of August in which ho promised to overlook tho past, but to put down with the strong arm ot power, those that should raise tho cry of dicorder. A report was prevalent at Mnnto Video, •that l)or.tnr F/atteiatho 1 )ict«u»r ofParujrimy, was dead ; this has caused some hopes that the trade of tho country will bo opened. Military.—An order from tho Ad/t. Gen* inral’s Offico of 23d September, details the proceedings of a General Court Martial hold at Jcflbrsoti Barracks, (Mississippi,) in July last, by which two deserters wcru condemned to be shot. As no such sentence can bo exe cuted in time of peace, until ratified by the President, tho proceedings were transmitted to him, and ho itas disapproved the sentence in both cases. In the first, that of a Sergeant —because the man was uctuully returning to duty, when arrested; nnd in tho second, that of a soldier deserting for the third time—be cause the record did not show that the mem bers of the Court wore sworn, nnd that the omission to state that fact on tho record, vitiated the whole proceedings. Both prison ers wore therefore directed to bo sot at liberty —the Sergeant to bo restored to his former rank—tho soldier to be discharged from the army, and a description of him to ho sent, to every post, so that ho might never bo again permitted to enlist. Cultivation of Suoar Cane.—General Wade Hampton, whilst in Montgomery, Ala- bntna, which he left a short time since, wrote a letter to his son, near Columbia, South Car olina ; from which tho editor of tho Journal of that placo was permitted to maim tho fol lowing extract, to which the particularatten- tention of tha farmers ofthut otato is invited the moro especially, as his judgement in rela tion to tho subject matter of the lot ter must be allowed to bo worth as much as that of any other man whatever, haying been for a num ber of years very extensively engaged in the culture of Sugar Cano. “ Nothing lias, for a long time, astonished mo so much as the appenranco of the Sugar Cano all through Georgia and this State, as fur or I have seen: It is moro foward and sweet than I over know it to bo at. tho sfupe season in Louisiana. It has determined mo *fto, go tho witolo" on it Carolina, and to give, tip Cotton for evor, after tho next crop, By tlie last of January you may expect an arrival in Charleston with a full cargo of Otaheitc tops, with tho exception of fifty hhds.of Sugar or Molasses for uallust.

All doubts, from my mind,ol its complete success a nJremoved.” Rum.—A miserable being was found dead on Saturday morning last, in one of tiiuse slight wooden tenements of one story, in tho upper nart of the city, which upper to be erected by our enterprising capitalists for the purpose of selling nun ami perpetuating vice. Tho poor wretch had formerly boon a visiting acquaintance of a no loss squalid nnd tnisern ble family which had held their orgies there, until expelled by their landlord for ir regularity in tho payment of their rent, and had probably sought it ns a shelter from the storm on Friday evening in a stute of intoxi cation, and perished. Thus making the thea tre of his former beastly exploits the scene of his death.—-V. Y. Mcr. Adv. Burglary.—The store of Messrs Wilbur & Wright, 120 Pearl street, was hist evening entered hy a gang of thieves, ftotn the rcur of the building, who burst open two doors, after climbing a very high partition fence, to gain access to tho store. About 9 o’clock one of the clerks, who lodges in tho store, returning from Church, alarmed tho intruders, and they endeavored to cscapo by scaling tho fence— but the watchmen caught the alarm, and suc ceeded in capturing one of tho gang in the yard. Tho rest made their cscapo, leaving behind a glazed hat and till their plunder.— Goods to the voluo of sonto hundreds of dol lars, were found prepared for removal. Tho fellow who was tulccn, is a stout, bright color ed, Indian-looking mulatto, with short-cut hair;—ho denies ull knowledge of tho robbo ry. lie is in tho bauds of tho police. Jour of Com. Maps.—'Tho mode of making small maps has recently been much improved in Boston. Tho names of tho towns are first * set up in types in their proper places { tho inter-spaces arc tilled up with Quadrates^ of the some height with tho typeB; tho whole is then stereotyped; rivers, mountains, lines, &c. are then engraved on tho metal which represents tho quadrates, nnd tho remaining spacois reduced. Tho letters made in this manner, appear much plainer than thoso etched or engraved. The Boston Daily Advertiser lately published n ntup of tho Seat of War, made after this fash ion, which presents a very beautiful appear- nnce. i LsTERNAiiJMpnovEiusxi^-Wttumlerslaml that an application will be made to our Legis lature during its present session, for a charter to incorporate a Rail Road Company, with the privilege of conBtntctiug a Rail Road from Augusta to CgluUibus, passing through Millcdgevillo and Macon. In the application, the State will be petitioned to loan a certain sum or sums of money ut intervals, as the work may bo completed, or to subscribe for a cortuin number of shares at stipulated prices. It is computed that two millions nine hun dred thousand dollars will complete the work. Tito importance of such a work need not bo commented on. The up-country would de rive incalculable advantages from it, while all our towns, from the mountains to Savannah, would feci its vivifying influences. Should this central route be completed, other lateral roads might be constructed to communicate from the various extremities of the State.— Wo shall give our views more fully on these subjects, us time nnd occasion nicy permit us.
