MONDAY MORNING, NOV. S3.
The linn. Gr.oaor. M. Tnour, one of our Senators
in Congress, mined in this city yesterday, on his way
to Washington. He win probshly set out early in the
present week. We unJerstam), that the Hon. Jamu
M. Waysf, one of cur representatives, started some
days since.
K r Jaues Cm land* was elected on Muturday la«t, Jus

Win. P. Beer.*, resigned.
Fall Term.—At the late term ofthc McIntosh Su
perior Court, in tiro city of Darien, William McDonald,
was tried for the offence of killing Win. llarding in that
city, in Jamtary last. The evidence clearly made out a
caseof manslaughter, of which tlic Jury found the prison,
er guilty.
In Wayne, a gentleman was fined $200 dollars for
acnd'ng a challenge to another, to fight a duel, in that
county. We may state generally, that all the Courts
south of the Alatamaha, together with that of M’lutosht
i were regularly held and their dockrts’gone through,
The remainder will ho proceeded with, according to the
Calendar, as published on our first page.
Nf.w Cnt RCtt.—Wo arc informed, that it is in con-
tcmplation to erect a permanent and substantial Mari.
Dor's Church, in place of that now tired for tho purpose,
Tho present building has been found too mnall, and that
proposed will be larger, more centrally situated and will
be ofhrick. Several gentlemen, we understand have
offered their contributions, to defray the expense, and
others will bo waited upon at an early period to alTord
them an opportunity to do likewise.
We were shewn on Saturday, a medal or copper,
f md in a garden at Medway in Liberty County, cast
in honor of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, tho ardent
advocate of the Colonics in the disputes, which ended in
the revolutionary war, and their independence. On
one side is a head, with the inscription ‘‘Guiin>irs
Pitt”—on the reverse—“Tee man who, having saved
the parent, pleaded with success for hor children.” It is
in the possession of tho Rev. Mr. White.
We have also seen one of the late Irish Emancipa
tion Medals—it is of silver,or a composition precisely re
sembling it—rather larger in diameter than a Spanish or
American Dollar. On the first sidu is a head of the
Irish Patriot, with the inscription “ D. O’Connell, Esq,
M. P. the undaunted assertcr of Ireland’s rights.”—On
tho reverse, a female figure representing the Genius of
Ireland, with the Cap of Liberty in her right hand, the
left extending the Olivo Branch of pcaco to her former
oppressors ; at her feet is a Lion recumbent, with the
harp and cornucopia on cucli side; iu the rear is the o<
ccan with the riring sun above it, (significant of thb ris
ing prosperity ofthc country,) and a ship iu full sail, the
emblem of commerce, upon it.
Yuifltm CoKVesfws.—Tlie Rich«lc.r.d Whig of
he 21*t mat, says, “it is conjectured that the debate on
the basis of white population is drawing towards a close*
arguments being expected from three or four gentlemen,
only. How it will result, seems to be pretty well un-
tod j namely, in the rejection of Judge Green's a-
mendment, and the adoption of tho resolutions reported
by the Legislative Committee. The vote, however,
will be very close, as now thought, 49 to 47, on this |*ar-
ticular proposition. But, it is believed, that if the mixed
ratio of representation bu conceded to tlie low country
in tho Senate, a result now confidently expected, tho
vote in favor of adopting the simple basis of white popu
lation by the House of Delegate?, will approach sixty.
Such, at least, are tho speculations of intelligent ob
servers. Things, in our view, have a necessary tenden
cy to a compromise. To yield tho basis of representa
tion In one House, to the claims of tho upper country,
backed by republican principles, and the basis in the
other, tr» the apprehensions of their low land brethren,
cents to present the only point for compromise.”
In the L'. S. Circuit Court, at New York, on the 22d
inst. James Gallagher was arraigned on on indictment
for piracy on board the brig Post C aptain, on the coast of
Chili, and pleaded not guilty. Tho same prisoner and
Robert Stewart were arraigned on another indictment,
for making a revolt on board tho samo vessel, and enter
ed tho same plea ns above. The prisoners had been 16
months in confinement, and were brought homo by the
frigato Brandywine. It is doubtftil whether either in
dictment will be tried this term.
ExPErmous Tiwvluinu.— 1 Tho Boston Journal,

therefore, have been less than 24 hours.
If we were to seek for the greatest possible contrast

A topographical Commission appointed by the Co
lombian Government to examine tho obstacles which op
pose tho opening ».f a communication between tho Atlan
tic and Pacific Oceans have reported, in favor of the pre-
alnt. mode of communication. The navigation ofthc li
ver Chagres being improved by means of steamboats,
and a road constructed from Cruces to Panama, which
is scarcely seven leagues and can be made passable for
carriages, the course to the Pacific would be very short,
One fact is stated which sweeps away the principal ob
jection to the union of these great oceans, that they prove
to bo of the samo level.
A letter received in Charleston from Augusta, stiUns
that “the steam boat Andrew Jackson, three days from
Savannah, arrived at Twiggs Bar, twelve miles bolow

The editor of the National Gazette has received files
of Mexican newspapers to tlie 10th nit. Fervent re
joicing seems to have been almost universal, in regard to
the capitulation of tho Spanish invader*. General San-
ta Anna is lauded to the skies, in both prose and verse.
But there arc symptoms in his conduct, ofthc intoxica
tion ofsitcccss and flattery, which may prove futal cither
to himself or to tho Mexican constitution. Tho follow
ing letter is from an intelligent observer in Mexico.
Vera Crux, Get. 9, ie29.
I must refer you to the accompanying file of papers for
tho particulars attending the surrender of the Spanish
expedition under Gen. llarr ad as. That expedition,
which was to have reunited Mexico to Spain, inglotious-
* yr surrendered to a few raw3roops and militia on the
_ Itli tilt. They surrendered, as it were, at discretion/
As amnrk, however, of Mexican generosity, the officers
wero allowed to retain their sido arms. Gen. Santa
Anna, who led tho Mexican forces against the enemy, is
now hailed as the hero of the day, and stands before the
Mexican public us the first man in the nation
his worst enemies have iiuitcd with his friends in singing
his praises. The “Vu ipiinos and Escoseses” disap
pear before his powerful influence;—the only two pa
pers published in this city, and which, as advocating the
oite or the other of tho above nartics, were very hostile
to each other, have unitod under his fortunoto star, and
proclaim him to tlie world as a nonpariel. To show
that he is fully aware of his importance, on his return
from Tampico, (24th tilt.) he wrote to the President, re
questing him to dismiss his cabinet naming those who
should be appointed in their stead. This is worse than
tin.* plan of “Otutnbo,” which only requested a change
or dismissal of ministers, w ithout presuming to name
who should succeed them : and winch resulted in the
exile of its chief promoter, the then Vice President Bra
vo. But Santa Anna has done more; he has also writ
ten, as I am informed and believe, to tlie ministers se
parately, telling them to leave their places and make
room for more capable and honest men. Why, this is
playing Cromwell over them. In the meantime he talks
of resigning and retiring to his hacienda—with the inten
tion, no doubt, oflteing speedily called thence fur impor
tant purposes. Notwithstanding he is a great favorite
with all foreigners ; indeed, he treats them with more
respect thun any man in office 1 have yet met with hi
this country.”

Tlio officer* ofthc Porpoise, arrived at Norfolk from
Mahon, having left that port on tho 26th Sept,
that a report was received at Mahon, that the Russians

and is perhaps correct.

Co.MMEncr..—The Bogota Gazette, received by tho
Journal of Commerce, contains a deorco of tho Liliora-
tor, dated Guayaquil, 1st of AuguM, prohibiting tho in
troduction of lim following article* into Guayaquil,
Estncraldns, Buenaventura, Panama, or other Colom
bian port in tho Pacific, from whatever quarter they
may come:—Star and second quality cloths, coatings,
fur baize, white-list buizc, Lancashire baize, baftas, all
coarse white India muslins, cotton laces, cotton or
woollen blankets, wooden frieze.* and counterpanes, and
9ll kinds of coarse cotton goods.
This dccrco is to take effect upon good* proceeding
from tho Isthmus and coasts of the Pacific, on the 1st
of December—from Brazil and other cquinoxial ports,
on tho 1st of January—and from tho United States, on
the 1st of February.
The Augusta Constitutionalist of Tuesday states*
from a rcipcctable source, that “tho establishment ofu
flail Road between Charleston and Augusta, may be
considered a* no longer problematical, and that it will i n
all probability soon be completed-” We hnva heard
something of this beforo. Tho funds may no doubt Iks
procured from Congress ; hut prudence in this, os
every other transaction is a commendable virtue, and
lliocost should be well ascertained before the experi
ment is made. The remark has been attributed
to some warm admirer of that inode of internal improve
ment, that rivers wore only ofuso as feeders for canals—
Irat we have never hoard that (hoy wero in tho moHt re
mote degree of any benefit to rail roads. Indeed, no
toad of the kind, on so extensive a scale, has yet been
constructed, and it must therefore, after all, be an expe
riment, whether tho produce diverted from the river to it,
r.an pay an Intercut for the money expended in its con
struction, and for keeping it in repair,collecting t<jll4,&c.
nay, whether, iftlio river did not exist, tho transpor-
t otion by it would warrant the expense. We profess no
exclusive knowledge of this subject, but it appears to
nv, that if rail roads on ns extensive a scale as this is to
tic, had been found practicable where population and
production are much greater, they would havo been
constructed before in place of Canals, as a moans of
inter-communication. In a country, tlio face of which
is uneven, their expense must bo very great, and the
ilifficu'tyof their construction much increased. We
are'not unfriendly to improvement in any part of our
country. Qn t)ie contrary, wo wish success to every
practicable plan j ami, if others, opposed to the expen
diture of the national funds for road* and ennuis within
tho slates, partako the seductive benefits of the public
purse, it may well be asked why our Canal Compnny
/tliould not follow suit. The sum required to complete our
Canal to the Allamaha, is not much over half a million

following memoranda
“ The Russian head quarters wore at Ad-
rianoplc about tlio 11th or 12lh September.
About tho f)th September a deputation was
sent by tho Sultan to the Russian head quar
ters with proposals for pence, but tho terms
were considered inadmissible on the part of
the Turks—the; preliminary articles being
the payment of But) millions of silver rubles
os an indemnification for tlio expellees of tlio

any part, of Turkey. Since tho passage of
the Balkan by thu Russians, all hope of de
fending Turkey in Europe seems to havo been
abandoned.”
Tlie Boston Centine] gives the annexed
items of intelligence—
The Smyrna Courier of the 13th, gives the
following article, which was considered ns
the most creditable of the advices received
here, and which afforded strong hopes ofthc
early proclamation of Pcaco :
The Dutch Consul received in the night
of tlio 10th a despatch from Admiral Ricord,
brought by an officer of the British frigate
Isis, sent by Com. Sir Thomas Staines.—
This officer announces that the treaty of
Pence had been signed. The despatches
from Admiral Ricord, arc dated tho 8tli, be
fore Tenedos, and mention, that according to
advices received from tho Russian Head Quar
ters, all appearances wero favourable to tho
immediate conclusion of Peace. They also
announce tho establishment of the commu
nications between the army and the squadron
by the way of Kuos. Finally, n letter from
the Dutch’ Commodore Pool, also at Tenedos,
to the Consul General, and dated tlm 9th,
states “ that the lftlh is the day fixed upon
for the signature of a treaty of peace on the
terms which had been agreed upon.”
The advices from Constantinople in these
papers arc to the 7th September—(one day
the latest .) The Secretaries of tlio British
Ambassador, nnd of (tenoral Muffling, who
had accompanied the Turkish Plenipotenti
aries to Adrianople, returned tho 3d Septem
ber. Wo havo later advices from Adriano-
plo. The account of tho embarkation of
General Muffling, on his return home, was
confirmed. It was reported, that lie had fin
ished his mission beforo his return, and lmd
received very distinguished marks of the fa
vor ofthc Sultan, for tho part lie had taken
in the negotiation of peace.
f a:
n relation to these charges,—namely: that
“ he had kept Lt. Hamcrsley six months un
der hatches,” and had “graced tlie wristbands
of two other officers witli iron hand ruffles”
—the writer says:—
“ 1 have this day received a letter from a
friend, (now in this city,) from which the fol
lowing is an extract. “ By the invitation of
Commodore Creighton, I embarked on board
the Hudson, on tlie 1st of June, at Monte
Video, and arrived on the 12th of tlm same
month at Rio Janeiro, and continued to reside
on board tlie shin with him, until the 19th
July, when I sailed for tho United States.
During the period abovo mentioned, 1 fre
quently suw Lieut, llamersley, and Lt. ,
and two Midshipmen (their names I do not
remember,) who I was informed were under
arrest; walking on tho* cun deck; and on
several occasions I havo observed Lieuts. II.
und — sitting forwurd on the gun deck at
the place assigned for smoking, with other
licutenunts and ward room officers; and from
the friendly intercourse I enjoyed witli tho
officers of tho Hudson, lutd there been exer
cised towards the said officers under arrest,
any severity unauthorized by the usages of
the service, I think I should have heard of it;
which, I can say, I never did.”
As an answer to the second charge, above
mentioned, Mr. Creighton quotes the subjoin
cd extract of a letter received from the com
modore himself, dated on board the Hudson,
.Sept, 0:—
“ I have been thirty years in the Navy, and
for tho greatest part of that time, as you very
well know, have been, .either an Executive
Officer, or Commander of a ship of War, or
of a squadron, and during this long term of
service, I have never up to this day, found it
necessary, to put an Officer in irons—and
God forbid I ever should.”
I submit these facts (says Mr. C.) without
a single word of comment. The following
however, is added, as a corroboration of them:
“ On the 12th of Smitember last, the offi
cers of the Gun Room, gave a sumptuous
dinner to their Commander, to which all the
Americans in Rio, were invited. The regular
toasts, were only three;—1st. The Presi
dent of the U. States. Sid. The Secretary of

pressions of good will, confined to the ()(Ji
cers of tho ship. Tlio CVeto, have voluntari
ly entered into a subscription, to present him

facts is, tlmt his officers and crew do not re-

Govnnxou Hofston.—A letter from
gentleman in Arkansas, dated September 21,
gives the following description of this gentle
man in bis Indian Retreat:—
“ I saw tho General at bis wigwam or sum-
mor house, constructed of rune, and closely
entwined und mantled by the Lima bean, at
the the mouth of the Illinois river, distunt
From this place about twenty-live miles the
residence of Ulataka, alias Gcii. John Jolley,
the principal chief of the Cherokces, his Indi
an father, about sixty years of age, a half
breed, somewhat above tho middle size, very
genteel iu bis person, a man of fine manners,
brought to my recollection the language of
the classic poet of the feast of /Eneas. In
deed Gen. Houston seems to have excited
much interest and regard in this country;
and it seems with him that self interest may
be merged in the loftier consideration of en
deavouring to do good among the Indian
tribes located we>t of the Mississippi; and
with his knowledge of tho Indian character,
he is certainly capable of doing much good.
His tnlcnls are not ofthc “ splendid & spark
ling kind,” and yet profound, respectable,
varied and useful. But his location in the
Cherokee nation has been ascribed to aberra
tion of mind, to which tho malevolence of
slander has added intemperance, of cither of
which I have not discovered the least indica
tions. Indeed the deportment and conversa
tion of Gen. Houston deserve unqualified
approbation. Wo do not discover in him
tho least tincture of bitterness. Wo hear
nothing from him hut manly sentiments, con
ciliatory language, and enlarged and liberal
views of things. lie seems to be satisfied
with his situation, and in a state of enviable
peace. But we cannot pennit this man to
remain in exile—he will be restored to socie
ty and usefulness again. In the mean time,
we will do him the justice to bear testimony
to the high estimation in which he is held by
the whites and the Indians who have the
pleasure of his acquaintance.”
We understand that some disclosures have
recently been inndo in the Patent Office* to
confirm tho many proofs already existing of
tho great utility of reform at the scat of gov
ernment. The President some time since re
quired a special report to him, stating the
number of patents issued and monies rccoivcd
on account of patents. Mr. Craig,the now!’
appointed siiperiiitciidaiit, was charged wit]
preparing the report. After ascertaining at
tlio Treasury the sums of money paid on ac
count of patent s, hAompared it with the en
tries of patents isfted from tlio beginning of
the government, nnd found that ninro than
$4000 lmd not been accounted for; Mr. Craig
communicated the fact to tho Treasury,
but from the loose inannor in which the
business had been done, it could not be as
certained whether the money hud been cm-
liezzlnd ut tho Patent office or at thu Trea
sury offico. Tho fact was immediately made
known to tho Treasurer and Register, and luis
led to a regulation for tlio future. When the
head ofthc government thus scrutinizes every
thing, ho cannot fail, with the aid of faithful
officers, to put nn end to utilise and pecula
tion, or ut least to coniine them within very
narrow limits.—Philadelphia Sent hut.

the counlcnaiiRn und support liitliurfo nttordud them for
the iiiainieimneo of Orphan.Female Children, by tho
charitable citizens of Savannah, beg leave to inform the
public, tliat ihi-ir Ainniul Fair will bn held iu the Ex
change Long Room oil TUESDAY, tho 15th of De
cember, where every article useful ami ornamental will
lie exhibited fur sale from 10 o'clock in tho fore noon uud
til 10 o’clock at night.
Tho charitable from all parts of our State and our sis
ter Slate, w ill wo hundily hope tiinku it convenient to nf-
letid, and view one of the iikmI beautiful collnelinns of
Fanny Articles ever produced at any Fair. Tho most
of the se articles we wish to bo understood, are thu pro
duction .of our young Ladies, who have employed the
]iast summer iu this work of charily—uud wo hope they
liava not labored in vuin.
Formerly this institution was supported by contribu
tions at tho Churches, which nroved precarious and dis
agreeable to tho Ladies. They therefore adopted this
mode of holding a Farr annually, for tho support of Fe
male Orphan Children, who, without such nid must bo
cast friendless oil tlio world—and as they wero forced to
try every mean* in their power, they resorted to this mode
in ureferencu to any other.
* Tho Editor* ofNcwsnancrs in Charleston, Beau
fort, Augusta, Darien uud Miflcdguvillc, will confer a
favor upon thu Ladies of the Savannah Female Asylum,
by giving tho foregoing publication, an occasional placo
