However, tlioro is too much aristocracy hero, fur tho good of tho city.— Business must ho left to find its proper chan nel—and enterprise allowed to operate in its own way. No city, while its destinies aro controlled by a faction, can ovor make any vory rapid advances in conmicrqial impor tance ; and tho only wonder is, ^considering whut sho has had to contend against,) not that Savannah is no grealur. hut -timt-nUn,.. what sho is. remaps no reason exists to foar that'‘Savannah will sibk lower than sho is—oven should the South Carolina Bail road ovor bo completed—but she cannot improve rapidly in prosperity,, until a-different policy Is pursued by herself, or a liberal aid exten ded by tho Legislature. Tho assistance re- quired as : 1st a completion of tho Alatama- ha Canal: 2d, a Rail Road to Columbus; 3d,abridgo across tho Savannah river op posite tho city, > These works would bo im portant auxiliaries to the building up of tho prosperity of Savannah ; but before they can be obtained, sho must shavo tho Jocks of her aristocracy—fost^rentorprize—patronize her own mechanics, in preference to those of Old or Now-England—cultivate a closer inter, course with the interior—becomo moro Geor- sian io feeling—and do business on a more libera) plan. Mntil Savannah becomes in a mannor regenerated, she stands no chance of rcceivingiurther aid from tho State; and tpM$n shjaBcomo* so regenerated sho would get along vory well without it.

In the French papers, the progress of the Cholera Continues to bo tho leading, and al most the only, topic of intelligence. Tlio ravages of tho pestilence have been truly ,ap palling. It is believed that tho violence of tho epidemic hns abated in iho Capital, but it iB spreading with desolating fury through iho provinces. The government reports ofihe deaths in Paris, aro said not to be depended upon. They embrace only tho returns of ca- bob tcrminatingfotnlly within the walls ofl’ a - riB, wliilo tho dtsegso is raging with awful dcqfructivencs* in all tlio environs- Many oF tho must eminent medic >1 inou havo fallen victims to it. Tbo deaths -inserts', dow-n to the 21)tli of April, aro estimatad in letters from medical men, at from *22,1)80 to 30,000 per sons. The accounts to )ne 22J, stated the deaths in tho capital to have amounted to 20,000. There hud been upwards of 1000 deaths ina single day. Tlio doathe at Rouen have not boon so numerous ns might have been expected. From tho 8tlt to |ho -r »d. they amounted o/.ly to 03. Tho disease has not yet visited Lyons. By order of tho C,o- vornmefit, tho funerals aro conducted by night nnd trenches, instead ol graves, are dug tor the reception of bodies, which nro brought in cart-loads to this melancholy placo of sepul ture. Such h sheen the mortality or late, that iho government lias been obliged to cm- ply Iho artillery horses for this service. The mortaliiv has been equally grout with that attending iho ravages of the Plague in London, in tho reign of Charles 11. I lie dontho at «l,ui timn is sit id never to hnvo ex ceeded 1000 per day, or 7000 per weak.— Tho total number of deaths, (luring tho con tinuance of the poBtilenco nttliqt time—a pe riod ofHovcn or eight months—wns70,000.— Tho population of Paris is larger than was that of London, at tho timu referred to ; bin tho’deaths have also boon rnorc numerous in a given period. A letter from Paris, tinder date of 15th A. pril, to a gentleman in Lomlon,-snys— If tho nows of your Cholera, which we findjin the London pnpors, bo true, I can as- sure you that tho disease lias not been s«i gentle **n the hanks of the Remo. The grave diggers at tho cemetory of Montmartre can not dig graves enough. In vain is tlio com mon iosso large nnd wido enough to contain n company of soldiers in line. Tho sextons Iiavo noftimo enough to arrange tho bodies which aro continually nrriving in all sorts of vehicles, oven in tho military hospital wagons. Tho authorities lrnvo been obliged to employ tho artillary horsos from Vincennes to relieve those employed in tho hearses and hncknoy rosrbnc. which aro no longer able to convoy the dead. J ..e funerals now all tnko place by night I havo been myself tn Montmartre, and lifter tho horrors that I have thorn witnessed. I can affirm tho olficial number of deaths is at least try. Tho State is not only invaded by tho hostile Indians, but many of your citizens havo been slain in battle. A detachment of tho mounted volunteers commanded by Ma jor Stillman, of about 275 In number, were ovorpowored by tho hostilo Indians on Syc amore creek, distance from this place thirty nvlea, and a considerable number of tlum killed. This is- an act of hostility which cannot ho misconetrued. 1 am of opinion that tho PoUawatamieft and NVinnebagoos havo joined the Sue ami Foxes, and all may ho considered as waging war against the U. States. * To subdue these Indians and-dHve thorn out of theate, it will renuiro a force of at least two thousand mounted volunteers more, in addition to the troops already in'tlio field. I ha vo made tho necessary requisitions on tho proper officers for tho above number mounted men, and have, no doubt that citi zen soldiers of tlio Slate-frill obey tho call of their country. They will moot at Ilinppin outlie Illinois river, in companies of50 men each, on tlm tOili of Juno next, to bo organ ized into a brigade. JOHN REYNOLD?, Commander in Chief.

Speaking of tho condition of M.

This only appears certain that it will bo ijifliciiU to form a new Administra tion, without introducing an infusion of the Movement party. How anxiously M.

Tho state of France is indeed appalling.— Riots and insurrections are occnring almost overy day in difibrent parts of the country. The fires aro again raging in several of the provinces, and tho incendiaries are doubtless influenced by political motives.

Tho foRotyhig intelligence ib copied into tlioWashington papers from tho latest Cin* cinnatfGazette : The Indian War.—Tho steamboat Her ald, Captain Fleishman, in snvonty-fmir hours from St., Louis—a most extmordinaiy quick passage—brings us a proclamation from tho Governor of Illinois to the citizens of that CONG It E s s. In Senate on motion off Mr. White, the Sen a to then agreed to postpone the procee ding orders, and took up the bill from tlw House, malting appropriations in conformity with certain treaties with the Creeks, Choc taws, and ot Itor tribes ofInllians. An amend ment reported b' the Indian Committee, ap propriating 30,740 dollars for tho Choctaws who had relinquished lands according to the provision of the 10th article of tho treaty, was agreed to and the bill was ordered io a third reading. Tho Senate then proceeded, to con- aider tho bill to appoint a Recorder of iho Genoral Land Office,"and proscribing the mode in which pntonts to'public lands shall bo issued. The amendment offered by Mr. Poindexter, to affix a plat of tho land to each patent, was withdrawn. Mr. Foot moved to amend the bill by stri king out tho 1st and 3d sections, and in the second section, to strike out the word **Re corder,” and insert the words "Chief Clerk.” so as to throw the duties on the Clerk. This amendment was rejected. Mr. Forsyth then moved to amend the bill, by striking out all after the enacting words, nritl introducing a provision that a fact simile be substituted for tho sign manual ofihe President, and that ho be allowed a private Secretary to uso this facsimile. On motion of Mr. Forsyth tho bill was then laid on the table—-Ayes 21 noes 14. Tho hi Is yesterday ordered for engross ment wore severally road u third time and passed.

Our ConsuH in a spirited letter dated on the following day, declares tlio utter inability of tho morchants, fr >m the stagnation of business growing out of ihore parations of Gon. .Santa Anna himself, which has cut off all communication with the i ft to. riorfrom whence the means of payment are .derived, to meet these demands ; and ques tions, even were it in their power, tho propri ety of their doing so, as the Mexican Gov ernment, to whom the bonds ware given, hnvp expressly fbrbid thoir payment, except into iho ptiidic Treasury at (ho,city of Mexico, or to some authorized agent of the existing Government.

Before nny decisioii on this amendment, tho Senate-adjourned* In the House of Representatives, Mr. Vcr- planck, from the Comm ttoe of Ways nnd Means, reported a bill for the discharge o!' sundry judgments against tho late Marshal of tho Eastern District of Pennsylvania, which was rend twice and committed.

I noticed in your paper several communi cations, giving directions for making small beer for family use ; none of which meet tny views of tho subject. The following, I know from experience, will furnish a very pleasant beverage. Take a live gallon keg—take out ono head, & insert a small brass cock, ahoul three inches above the lower bond. In tins keg, put three quarts of when!, rye or corn nvai, ground rather coarse, as for stilling—on this pour about throe qu rts of boiling water—add a pound of honey, sugar or molasses—one tea cup full of ginger or ground allspice—stir oil immediately together, and add three gallons of water, heated to about 75 or 80 degrees of the thermometer. To this pdd about a quart of lively yeast. Stir it well together, ond set it in the sun—a fennanthtion will soon en- sue, and continue all day. By tho next mor ning it will-be settled clear, and should then be drawn-off into bottles, corked and set a- why for 24 hours, when it "will bn fit for use. This, if repeated daily, will furnish a very pleasant family drink. Yours, etc. Middlesex, May 1,1832. R. M. \V. SWASN.U!
