TUESDAY MORNING, NOV. 17. GftKKSR AMD PULASKI MOflVMKNT.—About 24 tons of the material intended for this atructure arrived here from New-York by the Statue; another portion trill come by the Tybee, which ia hourly expected j and the balanco by another vessel that was to have sailod with despatch. Literary Prirm.—It may perhaps bo recollected, that In July last Mr. J. J. Adams, the manager of the Charleston and Savannah Theatres, offered a prize of threo hundred dollars for the beat Tragedy or Comedy, and a Benefit to the author if a native of Georgia or Couth Carolina—a second prizo of ono hundred and filly dollar* for the aecond beat piece, ifa Tragedy, was alio offered. The decision wilt bo mndo on the 20th of the present month, in Charleston, by a committee of literary gentlemen of the firat character, In that city. We are informed that tho competition excited has been Active, and that several candidates havo entered for tho prize. Whether any competitor for tho bays ha* ap peared from this State, we are not advised. A renewal of tho Golden Age seems likoly to tako place in Georgia; for we learn from the Constitution alist, that there wero twelve lawyers attending the late session of the Superior Court for Jefferson county, and toil a single cast rttunud. Tho Hon. Martin Von Burcn, Secretary of State, liis son, Mr. John Van Burcn, and the Chevalier Huy- gone, Minister Plenipotentiary of his Majesty the King of tho Netherlands, arrived at Norfolk on the 6th Inst, g om which they were to depart next day for Richmond. The Now-York papers furnish very few returns of the recent election. Indeed, there has been little opposition to tho candidates friendly to the state or general admin istration. In tho west, some opposition has existed be tween tho Anti-Masons and tho administration pany; but the former interest is on the decline, and therefore it is not expected to be of any importance, Pr.rnTEntiary in TfiifRcssBB,— 1 The Legislature of Tennesieo baa finally passed a bill for the establish ment of n Penitentiary in that State, to bo located at or near Nashville, and Appropriated 26,000 dollars to com mence it. The Nashville Republican, in speaking of these facts, judiciously remarks“ We congratulate the citizens of Tennessee on tho new era which this will open in the annals of their penal code, which must row be stripped of its feature* assumed in. a darker and rougher age, and so modified as to suit the more ration al anffroild spirit which is characteristic of the present enlightened period of tho world. Wo wore pleased to see all sectional feelings subside, and n general spirit of unanimity prevail to carry into effect thia all-impor tant object,” Of the number of emigrants who went out to Liberia from Norfolk in tho ship Harriet, with Abduhl Ruha* roan, whose death was mentioned yesterday, thirty, it appear?, died after their landing. A seventy-four gun ship is now building at Van Die- nftn’s Land, with teak timber from Trincomalee. In dia rubber ia now used there in sheathing vessels, by •training a thin coat over the surface. India rubber cotton ia also used aa an impervious covering wherever such ia requisite, and the use of both, it is sold, will shortly be extended to England. Indian Affairs.—-We are glad to perceive by the following article in the Columbus En quirer of the 7tn inst., that the Muscogees are becoming gradually more reconciled to the idea of Emigration; and we also hope rhatthe Cherokecs may be shortly iuoeulatcd in the same way. Benjamin Marshall, n chief of tho Creek nation has just returned to this place, from Arkansas. We are gratified to learn from him that the country west of the Mississippi has never been too highly represented ns in every wav suited to the pursuits and customs of the Indian. He represents the climate as perfectly congenial, tho soil rich and easy of cultivation, tho streams abounding with fish und tho forests and prairies filled with Bufiulo, snd other game. So conflicting are the re presentations of the country west of tho Mis sissippi, that many of the Indians (among whom are a largo number of Marshall’s friends) had determined never to remove there until some one of their own tribe in whom they could placo confidence, had visited and explored the country, and then returned to the nation and advised them accordingly.— With this view exclusively Mr. Marshal left his home and on his own expense has made every necessary discovery. Ho informs us that without a single opposing voice, all to whom he has made known tho situation, and prospects of the country, have signified their approbation, and are now willing to emigrate, and that ho has no doubt that at least ono hnlf tho nation will remove to the Arkansas before next fall. The Georgia Courier gives a terrible ac count of the stato of alarm which exists in tho upper country, in conseouenco of tho re cent nres in Augusta, and other repeated but less effectual attempts to lay that city in ash es. Upon this subject it observes,—Such Jins become the constomation of the planters, that they will not risk their produce in the Ware-house; and tho street purchaser ships it with as little delay as possible. The mer chant and tho landlord Iivo in such a state of at least fancied insecurity, that their rates of insurance make a terrible inroad on tho regu lar profits of their property. The uncertain tenure by which wo hold our wooden tene ments arrests tho progress of improvement in the city, ana the capitalists stands in stupid <> mazemont, without knowing what to do.— The Insurance Offices are so certain of losing, that wo bolievo they have all refused to take risks on any thing that firo can destroy.— Without sqpe better mode to arrest tho pro gress of the devouring flames, whetlior the result of accident or design, property in the city will scarcely be worth tho possession.— Impressed with this state of afluirs, and tho inefficiency of the moans heretofore used, a number of gentlcmon havo associated, under tho name of tho “ Augusta Independent Firo Compauy,*' to use their exertions to placo tho property of their follow citizens on 4 footing of greater safety. And with tho view of effecting this object, thoy have sot on foot a subscription fbr tuo purpose of purchas ing a proper apparatus; which tho City is now without, and which they calculate can not bo procured for a loss sum than 06000, et thercftheh*.

The 1411 to change the time of holding the annual i •ions of the General Assembly, and the bill to exempt free white citizens from payment ofpoli tax, were disa greed to in committee of the whole. The following was introduoed by Mr. Brailiford Whereas, the depressed state of commerce and the trilling return which tho farmer now receives as the pro duct of his labor, renders any improvement in our sys tem of Agriculture desirable, and tho introduction of ano ther staple commodity, a subject of the greatest interest and importance, to tho State at large: Be it therefore Resolml, That a select committee of five be requested to tako into consideration the proprie ty of offering such premiums for any improvement in the manufacture of Sugars, as may conduce to the general Interest and prosperity of the Stato; And be it further Rntdvtd, That the communication of Mr. Archibald, of New York, ho submitted to the same committee. Tho communication referred to, is one addressed to Mr. Brailsford on tho subject of certain recent and im portant improvements in tho manufacture of Sugar. A Message from the Governor was received contain ing the following:— Executive Department, > .... . « November IB. f I lay before the General Assembly the copy of a let ter from that caUant soldier and distinguished officer, Gen. John Floyd, resigning his commission of Major General of the First Division of the Militia ofthe State. G. R. GILMER. To Hi.

With soliritudo for the promotion of the interests ol'tho sorvico, I have tho honor to be, respect fully, your obedient sutvunl, JOHN FLOYD. In the IIouso ofRoprescntativcs on Tuesday, tho hill to authorize special Juries injustice’s Courts, through out the State, was ordered to lio on tho table. A resolution was offered and agreed to, instructing the Committee on the Judiciary to enquire into the extent ofthe neglect of presiding Judges, in drawing for Jurors failing to seal tho boxes, to prevent access to them, and to report the best remedy for the sotno. The following bills were rend tho first time—1V> re duce the bonds of tho Sheriff of Wnyne County—To define and make certain tho modo ofnBsessing damages Upon tho trlnl ofcluims of properly—To enable parties litigant in the Superior and Inferior Courts of this State to compel the production of written testimony, when tho same may bo in possession of persons nnt parties to the cause, and who may reside without tho county whore ‘ho caso is pending—To moke valid bonds taken by the Sheriffs or this Stato and thbir deputies, from defend' ants in execution for tho delivery of property levied on by them—To form anew Circuit to bo called the South- Western Circuit. The Committee on Printing reported, that thoy bad contracted with the Statesman Oflico for the printing of bills, reports, &c. and with tho Journal Office for printing tho Laws and Journals, which was agreed to. Tho same contract is made by tho Senate. Notice of bills was given—To cause the right of pro- party levied on and claimed by third persons, to be tried in the county where tho claimant resides, in cases where the said claimants are in possession of the pro perty at tho timo of levy—To require the Governor to mako n distribution ofthe Poor- School Fund, and to pay out to such counties as may have made returns ac cording to law—For the relief of Shcrifls, in certain cases. Resolutions were passed—To instruct the Committee on Finance to report tho expediency of consolidating the offices of Receiver of Tax Returns and Tax Colloc- tor, and providing for t he collection of taxes si the ssms timo that a return is made of taxable property—To in struct tho Judiciary Committeo to inquire into the oxpe. dinucy of regulating commissions of Shcrifis on sales of property sold under execution, so os to cqualizo the same. On Thursday tho bill to pardon Jolm Russell convict ed ofthe murderofaslavo in Oglethorpo county, and to bo hung on tho 1st of Docembor, being the order of the day, nearly tho whole morning was consumod in its dis cussion. On tho question of its passage it was negativ ed by a large majority. Two gentlemen exerted thcra- selvos warmly in behalf of the bill, and mude statements muoh at variance with the direct character of tho evi dence, but williout effect. Tito bill to repeal the act respecting valuable mines, minerals, &c. was debated in committee and made the order oflho day for Wodnesday. Tho western mem- bore in and near the Gold region exhibit some little anx iety for its possago, at tho samo time donyirtgthat their Tlie doMWflr cflmmuuicated the resign alien of Ma jor General John Floyd. A resolution was offered ap pointing Saturday to nil the vacancy, and at the same time to go Into the elqction of State House Officers; but It was on motion, laid on the table (or the present. Ma jor John Floyd and Gen. Taylor, of Burke county, 'art said to bo candidates. The following are candidates for State House Offi ces, in addition to those before mentioned: Secretary of State—Randolph. Comptroller—Ruffin. Surveyor General—Thomas. The latter by account, is at the head of Ids profession, and is tlio person who run the ine by order of Governor Troup, between this State and Alabama. The Governor has retained two of Gov. Forsyth’s Secretaries, Messrs. Pcnrcoand Clayton; tho third, Mr. Thweat, has given place to Mr. Greive, a gentleman employed (or a long time past by Mr. Gitmor.. It is said there will bo no change in the military aids of hig predecessor, where they consent to remain. The most of this day has been engaged in committee ofthe whole on ti»o bill to provldo for the improvement of. the public roads, which, after-much discussion, was or dered to be printed, and made tho special order of the day (or Tuesday next.. Thera is evidently a disposition among a large number of Members to suspend the sys tem of improving the rlvors and to try the roads. The bill as reported, authorizes the Governor to appoint superintendent to toko charge of all the public hinds of the Stato, and employ them on the three great roods loading from Gainesville, Hall county, via Washington fcc. to Augusta, from Macon to Augusta, via Millodge- ville, &c. and ftom Macon to Savannah—for which pur pose it authorises an appropriation of $10,000. The superintendent Is authorized to appoint not motto than three overseers under him. Amendments will probably be offered to divide the hands, so that the work imy com mence on the three roads simultaneously. If not, the road from Macon to Savannah, being the last named, may wait a very long time before it receives asy of the contemplated benefits. Tho bill to prevent Indians from hunting or residing in any of tho counties of this State, for which a subtil tute was offered and accepted, appointing guardians for such os wish to rosido within the State’s limits, was laid on the table. It is under stood that the committee on the State ofthe Republio are preparing a bill making provision for this people. The house agreed to reconsider so much of the Jour nal of yesterday, as relates to the rejection ofthe bill to psrdon John Russell. A resolution offbrod, requesting the President of the Central Bank to lay before the House a list of ooun< ties that have drawn money, and the dames of persons ■o drawing, was laid on tho tablo. In Senate this day, (Friday) notice was given of bUls to extend jurisdiction of Justices ofthe Peace, and to re gulato the modo of staying executions, and to rendei uniform the administration of justice in tho several Judi. ciol Circuits. The bill to extend tho time for taking out grants in tho Land Lottery ofl827, was passed. A resolution was passed, that the Joint Judiciary Committeo report on tho propriety of extending tho ju risdiction of Justices of the Peaco to allow thorn to ad mit setts off over $30, where tlio amouut or tho judg ment will not exceed $30. A decision having been made by tho late Judge Da vies, exempting Civil officers from Militia duty, the Joint Military Committeo were instructed to report the best method for determining who arc, and who ore not *ioblo to do militia duty. Univenityof Georgia,--Since my last, tlio Sunatus Acadcmicus after two meetings in addition (o tho firs, havo adjourned tin* dir. Tho following appointments havo been mado [see Georgian of yesterday.) A letter was received from G. M. Troup and referred to a Committee, in relation to connecting the University with the Poor School System. Tho Committee in their report, say that white they admire the elevated, patriot ic, and truly republican sentiments of that diitinguishod citizen, thoy regret that tho limited time allowed them to consider the subject is far too short to permit them to at- tempt'even a sketch of a plan, by which this great pur pose could be effected.” The committoe recommend its refercnco to tho Legislature. A resolution was passed recommending to tho Leg’ll- aure, to gut apart a permanent fund for tho purpose of educating nt Franklin College, upon principles of equal ity, the poor children of this State. The trustees in conformity with a resolution passed on Monday, prepared a very able and interesting report, (which I am sorry I cannot give in full) respecting the funds necessary to advanco tho future and best interests ofthe institution. I have,however, transcribed tho most material part of it- From tho Treasurer's Books it appears that the pre sent permanent annual income of tho collego is as fol lows :— Dividends Bunk Stock $8,000 Rcc’d from tuition annually (on an average) .*1,500 $11,600 The present permanent annual expend iture is— President’s salary $2,200 Four Professorships, each 1400 6,600 Two Tutors, “ 800 1,600 Secretary and Treasurer 650 Servnnts 250 Contingencies 600—10,800 $700 This exhibit shows, there will remain in the Treasury, at tlio end of each year a balance of $700. This arises from the saving, made of the salaries heretofore allowed to the teachers ofthe Grammar School; for if their sal- tries were to be paid as heretofore, the Board, with its present means would be brought in debt annually about 900 dollars. Tho Trustocsgo on to propose what Is necessary to “the future & best interests of tho Institution,” confining themselves to “what they conceive the State is bound to do under the present circumstances, and in the present condition of tho world, by every consideration that can influence the public authorities of a free people.”— They propose that there be added— A Professorship of Modern Languages “ “ 11 Natural History Tho annual expenditure will then be— • Salaries of Presdt. and Professors Servants and contingencies Estimate of the cfiit— . 6 Houses st $3000 ' 18,000 Library 6,000 Cabinet of Minerals • 2,000 Chapel 8,000 After reading the report, a resolution offered by Mr. Branham was pined, that the Senatus Acadcmicus concur In so much of tho report as relates to the engage ment of two additional professors; tho erecting a Cha pel ; tlio addition to tho Library, and procuring a Cabi net of Minerals, and to request tho Legislature to make adequato appropriations.
