Tho Philadelphia National Gazette nates that G. D.
Wall, Esq. has declined tkeoEco of Governor of Now
Jcrsoy, to which he had bren appointed.
New-York papers yesterday were of the 4th instant
tho last day of the elution. Nothing, of course, can bo
atccrtnincd os to tho result; but the strength of the
Working Men's, alias the Fanny Wright, a/iai the Infi.
del Ticket, (for by nil these names it is designated,)
appears to bo the subjdet of surprise and alarm, among
all the other parties. The Courier, the Evening Postt
tho Mercantile Advertiser, the Journal of Commerce,
and tho Gazette, tho two latter professedly exclusively
commercial papers, unite in the expression ofupprchcm
sion of tho success of this ticket, and every friend of
order and good government is called upon to stay the
“turbulent nnd polluted torrent.” In reference to tho
City Charter, tho utmost apathy is said to prevail. In
tho Sixth Ward, tho Working Men’s Ticket receives
doublo the number of any other, anil in tho Fifth Ward
the excitement is so high that an extra number of police
ofliccrs have been ordered on duty in it.
The liichimmd Enquirer of Saturday lost, snys—
‘‘It is two weeks sinco tho Debate was opened on the
llasis of Representation. It is not closed, and no de
finitive question has yet been taken, either on the House
of Delegates or ou the Senate. Wo cannot yet pretend
to foresee th* duration or tho issue of the Discussion.-
Wo suspect that there is many an arrow to be drawn
from tho quiver, before the Convention comes to tho
question. Hut let the question be taken when it may,
we understand that the vote will be very close, Itoth as it
relates to the House of Delegates and as to the Senate.”
The Baltimore Republican states that tlio object of
Mr. Barry's visit to Philadelphia was to entrust to the
caro of Dr. Physic one of his children, who has bcon
afilictcd with sickness, and tho cause of his journey to

at that place.
The Season.—An unusual visitor in this region,
shot the other day, on Whitemarsh Islnnd, about IS
miles from this city, is, wcurc afraid, the harbinger 01
cold. We arc inclined to think, that it is the wild Swan*
very common in tho Chesapeake, and generally known
among the Zoologists by the name of .sinus Cygnut.—
This bird, which has been presented to us, measures
nearly nvo feet in length, and about seven and an half
from tho tip of one wing to the end of the other, When
ever tho weather threatens to bo uncommonly sovere, i t
loaves tho arctic regions, where it breeds, for a milder
climato, though occasionally somo of them arc found
hybumating in tho Orkneys, tho Hebrides, and other
places less to tho north. Their ficah is esteemed as de
licious food, and tho natives oflho northern hemisphere
dross their skins with tho down upon them. Their dy
ing note, so much celebrated in tiio olden time, is not
quite so musical however, as is represented in the tables
of the ancients; tho voice being extremely shrill, but
said to bo not unlike tho sound of a Clarionet, when
Unu.-n hv ana who know very little about ulaying.it.
Indian Afkaiiu.—On tho 31st ult. the Chcrokees
passed a law divesting any emigrant to tho Arkansas,
of all tho rights arul privileges that ho may have previ
ously enjoyed. Likewise, all those disposing of im
provements to the enrolled, arc rendered ineligible to a-
nyoffice of honor trust or profit; and, in addition,
they arc made liable, not only to a fine of $2000, but
to the infliction of 100 lashes. Further, in order to
prevent persons from evading these penalties, every ven
dor and purchaser is required to file an affidavit that the
property was not sold for tho purpose of having it valued
by United Stitos Cammisdoners, and that they did
not act os agents for those who were removing from tho
nation, under the pain of $2C0fir.e. Two other sections
place all emigrants upon tho footing of intruders; and
direct tho Principal Chief to arrest every one who con
tinues in the country morn than 15 days, and to deliver
him over to the Cherokee Agent, or otherwiso to expel
or punish him as ho and his executive Counsellors may
please.
James Pettit was arraigned before both branches of

EDiToniai. TinuuApplication was made to
iho Chancellor at Now-York, a short time sinco, by ono
ot the parties interested in tho newspaper establishment
called “Tho Morning Herald," for an injunction against
tho other claimants, in order to prevent tho collection
of debts, and Iho appropriation of monies to the persons
now in possession. Tho different parties were required
to answer to tho motion, nud on tho 2d instant, wo learn
from the Journal of Commerce, it was argued. On tho
3d, tho Chancellor decided, that in order to protect the
rights of nil concerned, it became bis duty to appoint a
“ Receiver” to tukc in charge the effects oflho cslub.

to disposo of it on the hcsl terms; ami if unsuccessful
in tho endeavor to dispose of it at private sulc, that it

It will bo recollected that an order was received some
time sinco from the Navy Department, for fitting out tho
frigate Brandywine, to proceed, as was understood, to
the Western Island^ for tho protection of American
commerce, and that this order was subsequently coun
termanded. The Journal of Commerce states, that the
reason of the countermand was tho insufficiency of the
appropriation at tho lost session of Congress to meet tho
expense.

Tho editors of tho liultiiiiuro American havo received
the Havana iVoticioro of the 17th ult. It contains no

that a person was thrown into the public prison at Ha

Tho Augusta Chrouicto pays the following warm hut
deserved compliment to tho Inaugurul address of Go

Mr. Gilmer's Inaugural Address is exactly what we
expected, nnd all thnt our most sanguine hones could
havo desired. It is highly characteristic of his high-
minded firmness and independence, and augurs well for
tho future peace and diguuy and prosperity of the state.
Lot him persevere in the ndmirnhlo cmitse he ha* laid

and able nnd useful Governor that Georgia ever had.—
IIo has opened a new nud beautiful prospect to tho best

his patriotic efforts, will bo tho prayer of every good ci

A now regulation has boon adopted in tho
Treasury Department, by which tlio Treasur
er's receipts far patent money arc to bo reg
istered in tho office ofthe Remoter, and to ho
conntorsignod by him, anil at tho end of
tlio quarter ha is to furnish to tlio account ing
officers a list of tho number registered during
tlio quarter. Tho Secretary of Stato has al
so bcon requested to ciuisu a quarterly list to
bo fltrntalicd ofthe receipts presented at tlio
Patent Office. A comparison of thoso with
the Rnnk returns must prevent tho possibly
ofmistnko.
In nil ensos of disbursements, there is now
lmt. one uniform mode sinco tile first, of June
last, by which tho banks are authorized to
pay out the public money, viz: upon tho or
der of tlio Treasurer, inserted at the foot of
the warrant of tho Secretary of tho Treasury,
signed by tho Secretary, countersigned by the
Comptroller, and authenticated by the signa
ture ofthe Register. So that now four O/fi
rm of the Government, instead of one, (tlio
Treasurer) as was formerly tho case, must
place their aignaturea to tue paper author
izing the disbursement before it cun be made.
Under these safe guards, it is impossible that
there can bo any misapplication orembezzlo-
mont oftho public money from the Treasury.
Iffrauds are committed, they must take placo
after tho money ia tako out oftho Treasury
oml placed in the hands of Agents, &c.
YVo learn Author from tho Richmond En-
? purer, by which wo are furnished with tlio
oregoing, “ In tlio general, that things are
going on well at YVashington—and that Re
forms aro taking place in the administration
of tho monied concerns of Government. It
is said, that somo unpleasant devclopoments
are making of tho transactions of somo oftho
former officers—and that a few of tho dismis
sed Collectors, tukon together, aro supposed
to bo nuuut (Vein 100,00(1 to 150,000 dollars,
Ate. It is suspected that tlio monied transac
tions ofthe Government had become extromo-
ly rotten—and, its believed, that tho spirit of
Gen. Jackson, infused into thopublicdepart-
monts, will render ponnomont services to tho
country, by driving away tho defaulters, and
introducing a more rigid system of accounta
bility. '
Tboubpbs in Colombia.—The schooner
Thaddeus, Capt. Dayton, in 35 days from
Carthogona, arrived at Now York on tho 3d
inst., bringing Carthagena papers to tho flth
October, inclusive. Tho Now York Post
says that somo considerable political distur
bances had taken placo in Colombia; and
Capt. Dayton reports that Carthagena was in
a state ofgrcnt confusion nnd uproar when ho
sailed. The occasion of this was tho nows
of the insurrection which Gen. Cordova had
excited ill Autioquia, tho capital of Cmica,
and the intelligence of which hud just arrived
from Bogota. A handbill published at Cnr-
thamma on tlio 5th October, announcing this
intelligence, says that tho Secretary of war
anticipates from this evont no other conso-
quenccs than tho evils which the temerity of
its author will bring upon tlio province wliioh
has been tho theatre of this insurrection—
The same paper affirms that Cordova’s party
in Aiitioquia, consisted of only about forty or
fifty persons, that ho had been joined by no
man of influence, ricitcs or note, and that no
alarm was felt at Bogota on account ot what
had taken place.
Prom another paper of the flth it appears,
that an attempt had boon mado by Col. Fran-
eisoo Urdanota, at tho order oftho War Do-
partment, to arrest Gen. Cordova, his brother,
Salvador Cordova, and his brother in law, the
Governor of tlio province, the throe principal
leaders of tho rebellion. Urdanota without a
single soldier nnd without any other,means
than his own activity, had collected a purty
for the purpose of making tho arrest, but hin
plan being discovered by Cordova, ho found
liimsolf obliged to liastcn its execution. Ho
sent twenty men with an officer to Rio Negro
to seizo Cordova, hut tho latter was ou his
guard nnd tho plan wiib frustrated. Cordova
then marched upon Medellin, and Urdanota
came out to meet him, but tlio principal men
ofthe neighborhood and tho civil authorities
interfered between the combatants and pre
vented an engagement. Cordova agreed to
guarantee tho lives and property ofthose who
had opposed him, nnd Urdaneta found himself
obliged to leavo the province. Ho reported
that on his way through the province ho found
the people ev.ery where friendly to tire Libera
tor.
Gen. Cordova had with him his veterans,
his aid-de-camps, and his brother- He hud
collected a few militia of Rio Negro, nnd al
though these did not cxcoed 43 in number,
they were enough to prevent any attempt of
tiie unarmed inhabitants against him. lie
had sent a detachment oflO men to occupy
Naro, a point on tho Magdalena, whore a rtv-
or of that name empties into it, and whore
Urdaneta had stationed himself in nrdcr to
disperse them on their arrival. Urdaneta, in
a despatch to tlio Secretary of War, states
that Cordova hud sent his proclamations to
divers persons in Cauca, and others to Bogo
ta, that however his party in Antioquia coil,
stated only of a few young molt ofRio Negro,
that the inliubitants of that place had sent to
him beseeching his return, ami thnt with 300
molt he would restore tlio province to tran
quility.
Tlio precise date ofthose events does not
appeur from any paper wo hnvo received.—
The despatch, however of Urdaneta from
Naro, sent soon after they hud taken place,
was dated tlio 31st of September. Ou tiie
3flth of September tlio government of Col
ombia ordered a column of 700 vcteraiiB to
march, umlor tho command of Gen. Olenrv,
against Cordova. On tho same day despatch
es were received from tlio commandant gen.
oral in tlio dopnrtment of Cauca announcing
the fttonsuiea no tiad talten to prevent the
spread of the insurrection.
Tho accounts ofthe inaurreellou given in
tlio Carthagena papers doubtless represent
it i;i tho must favorable light for tiie existing
government, but tlio tone of alarm ta uvidout
throughout, and .tho disturbances are probab
ly of a more serious nature than these jour
nalists nro willing to nllow. TlioCnrthn'goiia
Gazette says of it: “ Y\ r e shall shortly have
further nows. God knows what will hn the
end of this farce which may yet ho tragedy.
At this very date two Columns are proceeding
by different directions to restore the tranquil
ity which has been destroyed by the caprice
or tho folly of a ruffian.”
Tho following extract from Rogotn, is of a
date anterior to the news of Cordova's rebel
lion. Extract of a letter dated Bogota, 38th
August.—“ YVo have no news of much inter
