The correspondent oftlie Georgian it adds, should have writ fen Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company, of Washing- fun, instead of Baltimore and Ohio Rail Rond Compa ny, as Blr. Rush visited England on behalf of the former corporation—and as Ills mission hud no connection with tho concern* of the latter in any manner whatever.” We can assufc tho worthy editor oftlie Gazette that the error of which he complains was unintentional on the part of our correspondent, as its publication was an over sight on tho part of ourselves—as a sufficient proof of which we thus take tho opportunity of correcting it.

A letter stated to bo from one of tho most intelligent planters in Louisiana dated on tho 2d of November says —“Our crop of Sugar is very bad, and so indeed is thut ofevery one.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE*, so tiii: cpiTons oi* the oroitoiAN. Mill edge villa, Friday, Dec. 4. Florida Bounpaiiv.—TIio subjoined Report was read and adoplcd in tho Sonata on tho 28th ult. Tho Joint Committee on the Stutcof tho Republic to whom was roferred that port of tho Governor's Mes sage, which relates to tho boundary linn between the Slato of Georgia and tho Territory of Florida, Report— That it is with extrema regret they learn thnt the lino dividing this Slate from the. Territory of Florida, it yet unmarked, and still the subject of controversy between this State and tho United States. Thnt it has been the mibfoitiiuo not the fault of Georgia, thnt sho has long been embroiled in disputes respecting her boundury lines, is no less true than deprccutcd by he r, mid yet so long as sho has been urged by imperious duty to contend fur her rights, either with the United Slates or any of her sister Slates, it gives her consolation to know that in none of these controversies has sho ever subjected herself to the imputation of disregarding the rights of others—nr of having refused to listen tu thu voice of rea son or of justice. That It is still her duty to persevere in tho enforce ment of her rights until they tire recognized und establish ed, none will deny. The Legislature would bo grossly negligent in Us duty to tho people of tho Stute, and es pecially thut pot lion of them bordering immediately upon tho line in dispute, were they any lunger to delay tho prosecution of the most rigorous measures to spi ed this controverted point to u fair and equitable adjustment. It is high time that Georgia should know* her boundary lines ; # that sho has* a right to the occupation of tho land to the truo line w hich separates it from tho Territo ry of Florida, as well r.s the jurisdiction thereof, nil must admit. Thut tho line to run duectly from Iho junction of the Flint and Chatnhoochio rivers to thu 'suitreo or head of the St. Mary's river, is tho Into line of division, is as certain as it can be rnmle by treaty stipulation, is beyond all question. There really ought to bo no diffi culty in settling the matter. The course of the lino be ing plainly designated, us also the point of beginning nnd termination specitinully pointed out, and both being na. tural points, and their description too, not floating in thu uncertain recollection of man, but reduced to thu great est possible certainty that language con make it, nnd in serted in nn obligation of the most solemn kind, betw een independent sovereignties, it w ould appear to tho Com mittee to leave t o room for controversy. It is useless for this Committee again to enter into on argument of the question in relation to thu locatiui of this lino. So full, so perfect a view of the same w as presented in a re port of tho Commit too on the Slate of the Republic, at the Inti cession of the Legislature, to whim that sub ject w*tmreferred, tht t it is only necessary to refer to that r< port to establish the truth und justice of our cause und lii’ly to sustuin ll.it course which the State is pr.rsu- mgNnichuion to that matter- The New Haven Advertiser, containing the errors made in statement of tho Herald of the samo place relative to the Weal.India Trade of that port, remarks:—“ Wo should not thank the exact accuracy of such a state ment (it was probably intended merely ns-an nproximation) of any importance, did it not by being so large, indicate a decree of pros perity which does not exist. It is well known thut the commercial interests of this place have sustained great injury, by the loss of a profitable trade, which had been for some time established with tho English West In dies. To the difficulties occasioned by an indirect trade, has been added nn enormous duty on the articles heretofore imported from the’West Indies. The whole profit of tho voyage is now made on tho outward cargo; a return cargo, cannot be Bulely purchased. This profit is so reduced by expenses of re shipments, brokerage, commissions, deten tions, und discounts for cash, that very little encouragement is afforded to those who con tinue the business. Indeed nothing but tho enterprise, prudence, activity and experience of our shipping merchants could sustain them in this depression. This stagnation of business is not peculiar to Now Haven, all the sea ports in the U. S. arc suffering more or less, according to the extent of their West India busines, from tho same causes. Any one who has witnessed the silence which prevails in the ship yards of New York, will need no better monitor to warn him of tho inactivity and insecurity of men engaged in commercial purposes. The transaction of any business, under such unfa vorable circuinstanr.es indicates a most com mendable perseverance, which deserves better return.” Whittemorr.—In allusion to the inven tion of the curd-making machine, Whittc- more, tho Berkshire American says—“ we cannot but regret thut talented genius should languish in this country for want of nnrtron- ago, which is not extended with the fostering hand that is required to support tho modest und frequently unpretending inventor. The invention of Mr. Whittcinoro formed a now era in tho mechanical ingenuity of this country, and tho real importance of the ma chine can hardly be estimated. As a piece ofmcchani8m, it» has never been excelled; strips of smooth leather and rolls of wire are placed on one end of the apparatus, and .'tin.* intricate process of cutting the leuthorto tho exact size and pricking tho holes is perform ed,while at tho same moment tho wire is cut, bent, and teeth uro inserted In their respect ive places; the curd then centos out, perfectly Mahmoud il.—The Sultan Im& only ono eon left, Aboul Medehid, bom April 20,1N23, who is his presumptive heir. The number of his daughters is considerable. He hus seven lawful consorts and many concubines. If his family should become extinct, his throne will be claimed by thu dccendants of the late Tar tarian Khans of tho Crimea, and the family of Gherni, which likewise is descondcd from tho famous Gengis Khan, of Tartary. Difference in Laws.—Tho Pacha of Egypt a year or two since, decreed that every able bodied man, twenty-one years of age tind upwards, should have at least two wives.— The Law in North Carolina is, that every man who lias two wives shall bo hanged.— .So much for tho wisdom of lawgivers! At a late sale in England oftlie celebrated Durham breeding stock, a three year old cow brought 150 guineas, a yearling heifer 115, a three year old bull 270, a twelve-month bull 210, a lbur-months old 120 guineas. An affectionate drake.—During the voyage ofun English ship from Cuba to Bris tol, a duck laid some eggs, and prepared to sit on I hem, whereupon the drake plucked it self nearly bare of its feuthora to enublo the duck to form hor nest l Literary.—Amongst tho recent English publication is a work entitled “ Travels in Chaldea, by Captain Mignun, including a journey from Bussornh to Bagdad, Hillah and Babylon, performed on loot. 11 There are twenty-five illustrations to the work.

The Irish PoBt Offleo have ontored into a contract with .Sir .Tames Anderson, by which he undertakes to convoy tho Mails through out Irclund at the rnte of twelve miles an hour, in couches impelled by steam, calculated to carry two or three pn84engcre, in addition to the Coachtnan and Guard. The contract between the Irish Post Office and Sir James is understood to bo for fourteen years, and tho only pcctiliary stipulation made by him iB, that he shall receive half the money which, the Government may save by adopting his system. Sir James will commence operations by carrying the muils botween Howth and 1 htblin during the present month. The road is level and good, and tho distance not more than nino ot the miles. THE MARKET.

The United .states cun certainly have no whh to du in justice to any one ol'tho rm tubers oftlie confederacy and Georgia on her part solemnly disclaims all intentions of even a wish to attain either from Iho U.

Tinware induced once more earnestly to appeal to thu Legislature of tho Union upon this subject, aud request that they, ul thu ensuing session of Congri ss, repeal, or alter, or amend the uut parsed on tho lGih day of May, 1820, it) relation to the turning and marking, iho suid line, and moke provision for and appoint Cummissioiicrs on thu pnrl oftlie United States, to act in conjunction with Cummirsiouers to ho appointed on the part pf Georgia, to trace out and plainly mark tho Uuo between Georgia and tho Territory of Florida, from tho junction oftlie Flint and Chatnlioochiu rivers, to thu head and soittvu of the river St. Mary’s.

Thj: Admiral and tiir Editor.—The Russian Admiral lleiden has been making rather nn extraordinary exhibition in the newspapers of .Smyrna. There are two pa pers published at Smyrna in the French lan guage—tho one called tho Eastern Courier and tho other tho .Smyrna Gazette. The Russian Admiral has addressed the following letter to the editor oftlie Eastern Courier:— Sir—Tired of all the lies inserted by the Courier of Smyrna in his Gazette, 1 beg you to publish In your Eastern Courier that it is an infamous he tlint M. l)o ltigiiey interceded for tho Egyptians on hoard of t’ho Lioness corvette, to stop tho pillugo. M, l)o Rigney never interfered in tho a flair, directly or in directly. It was an infamous lio that there was any misunderstanding between mo nnd Admiral Matcom, us to the Inking of the Egyptian corvette. I do not believo I ever spoke, much less wrote, to him on the sub ject. Tho editor of t he Smyrna Gazette may lie on othe r subjects ns mtudi us lie pleases, but l warn him to be very silent us to me and inv squadron, for, sooner or later mi oppor tunity will arise of making him pay dearly for his impudence. You will oblige me bv publishing this letter in your journal; aud l beg you to believe, &c. The Count L. LE 1IEIDEX, Vico Admiral of his Imperial Mtiiesly. Azofi; 8th (20th) July, 1819, at Forus*. From the PhUutUljihia Chroukh, .Vow. 23. Some of the passengers nnd crow of tho schooner Hope & Polly, of Georgetown, 1). C., urrived in this city in tho steam bout from Bordontown. A passenger givos the following account of tho wreck of the vessel on Bocehy Island, 09 the New Jersey coast. O11 Thursday, tho 12th iuet. she sailed from Halifax, N. N., ballasted with plaster, and having on board a considerable sum of money the proceeds of a cargo of Hour. On last Monday morning, tho wind blowing very hard from S. E. attd very thick fog coming pp, tho schooner struck violently upon the island—no suspicion having been entertain ed that hind was near. She bilged immedi ately, und soon went to pieces. Tho pas sengers und crew, twenty three in number, all reached land safely, with ns much of their property as they could carry with them.— They were then assailed by wreckers, who took whatever they could. Our informant was plundered of his cont,und ordered to give up his trunk. This he refused to part with ; and, seating himself upon it, drew his knife to defend himself und his property. Ho was then alloyed to keep it. The luckless voy agers afterwards reached the main land with out difficulty ; hired wagons, which curried them to Bordontown, and thence canto here. Two gentlemen at New-York, recently walked off tho worf. They were rescued, however, whit no injury from tho cold duck they had taken. A man was lately fined jC10 in London, Ter selling a jicnueyworlh of sand, without a liccurr. It is mentioned in 01m of tho New York papers us a rumor, that Mr. Webster means to remove from Boston to New York. A Compromise.—The triul of Mr. Gard ner, tho Register at Tiffin in Ohio, fora Libel, hociuh to have occasioned some excitement itt that Siuto. 11c was found Guilty, and the amount of damages was $425. But tho cu rious pnrt of tlio story is that of paper, on which tho opinion of each juror was placed, wero put into a hut. That tho damages for the plaintiff, varied from 6} cents, to $1500. That the whole oftho several sums wero then ndded together aud divided 12!! The result is apparent. Presentments or tiii* Grand Jury or Bryan County.—December Term, 1829.— The Grand Jury for tho county of Bryan hav ing taken into consideration tho two Acts of the Legislature, in relation to gaining and negro trading, nnd tho ^ciicrul affitirs of the County, have the calhdaction to state to his Honor Judge Law, that they have no pre sentments to tnuko iu relation to either of these subjects. They congratulate t hemsel ves and their fellow citizens in general, in having the pleasure of meeting for tho first time, his Honor on the Bench, and would as sure his Honor of their entire confidence both in his ability nnd integrity to discharge the public justice of tho country. Wo cannot but believe, that if there can he any guarantee to the pure- administration of justice, that guarantee must alone be fouuded in the confidence which wo entertain, iu the taki.ts and ability of him who is called to ad minister that Justice, but more particulars upon tho purity of motive and moral integrity hy which ho will lo governed. Believing his Honor to possess this tal ent and integrity, wo would assure him of our respect, aud will on every occasion while he presides over our rights, afford him every facility in our power, in the discharge of his duties. Before wo take leave of his Honor Judge Law, wc beg to express our gratification in the appointment ol’tho present Solicitor Gen eral, for the Eastern Circuit—nnd feel every confidence that he will do honor to his office, by the promptness ami ability with which he will discharge tho duties devolving on him.

Within the last few days tho re ceipts havo been largo, (siy 10,000 bales during the week,) und the quantity offering induces purchasers to hold off with a view of buying at lower rates; and we think it would bo difficult to effect sales unless at a re duction of1-8 or M cent on all descriptions except {.trictlv nrimo. The lust dates from Augusta state the river again to bo falling, and that freights in consequence had advanced. Wo may therefore calculate that the receipts for tho ensuing week will bo less than those ot tho Inst, Iu Sea Islands tho demand continues limited at prices within our range, say from 22 a 2o, and up wards for f.itiny brutids.
