ordered to bo published.
Satan Nan. Septomhar 30th, 1847.
In compliance witb nh order of Council pasted
on (he 2dm inst. I uaro to report; (hut the inter'
section of Broughton and W»ai Broad streets ii
twenty eight fuel above the lev^l of the wharf,and
thq distance!* thirteen itundted uiid thirty foot.—
A Tunnel beginning at thn tmtth side ol Brough-
ton street, ai* fret below the surface ofihti ground,
with a grad» of ten niches to oiiq hundred feet,
will vary but little from an average u> auven feet
deep, fur the Hr it four hundred feet; the neat five
hundred and fifty feel va'ying'between seven and
ten feet, will average rignl feel, and will reach the
•commencement ofthe descent of the bluff: From
thence a grade of five feet to one hundred feat
will attain the level of the river in the remaining
three hundred ead eighty feet, and will vary in
depth from the aurfice, between six nod tell fuel,
averaging about seven and a half feel.
Inconsequence ofthe great extent of surface to
be drained uy this Tunnel, and i>* little depth, I
w usl recommend a pAvement of hard bricks lain
in nioHeV of three feet width, with side-walks of
■two brieks thickness and three feat height, cover
ed by a eimictreular arch of the same thick Dev*
Avitb cesspools «i tho intersection of Broughton,

# T« Avery Democrat whbso eye may rost upon
these lines w«'would make an urgent appeal.—
That any ontf of our noBle pnrty will voluntrully
stny front the polls, we do not believe. But let
all remember that thia is a day for action—for
effort l Nut only should each vole himself, bat
he ahonld be up and doing among his friends, his
acquaintances, and those whom he may be abl« to
influence. Now is the time to decide whother
reason or eorruplioii is to control the bnllot'box
in Chatham County. The Democratic Party
presents a noble ticket for Governor, and for the
Legislature. It is a Ticket of Principle, and of
able men. Let ns give it, ono and all, a warm,
hearty, unanimous support
Itemcmbfr!
To volo early!
To examine your Tickets !
To vote the Ticket—the Whole Tickot—and
nothing but the Ticket !
To exert your influence with others I
Toaee that no Democrat is deceived iuto voting
a Whig Tickot I
That you are voting for Principles !
That your Cause is a pure one and needs your
support!
That victory on the part of the Whig* will be
regarded ae a defeat of all you hold must dear in
politics!
That you are contending with the pure blade of
reason and principle against insiduous deception*
aud unscrupulous corruption i
That the interests of your city nro at stnke !—
The triumph, of the Qoinocraia, ia salvation—of
the Whigs, ita ruin !
The Spirit of Pitrrtre.
What is the spirit of the two parties which aro
this day struggling for ascendancy in Georgia 7
With what emotions will they come to the polls?
For what.objects are they contending 1 Tho D >
moerat of Georgia. knows where he atende; he
knows the principles for winch he labors; they are
the same with those which have over been clier
tubed and supported by the Republican fathers of
the Stale. A government free as government ean
be.: equal, just, impartial legislation; opposition
to monopoly and the encroachments of monetary
power; free tnde; a sicrcd adherence to the
Federal constitution; a profound respect fur the
richts of tho Slates, and n patriotic aiipport of the
government in war, that the glory of the nation
mny be proportionate to hor-wealth, power end
greatness. Democrats of Chatham, are not these
the p iiiciplua. tbo objects for which you struggle 7
Is not this na apparent as the light of the noun*
day stin I Arc you not standing now where your
Republican forefathers alwnyi stood, and are you
not cheered and inspirited by the maiuory uf tho
Illustrious dead I To .the polls thoti. with a free
man’* heart—a freeman’s purpose. Knowing tho
purity of your principles, strive to maintain them!‘
The limo is come whan every Democrat must
labor in the good cause; when the reasons of
men are nn. longer addre*«ed ( by.qnr opponents,
bill wh**n corrupting infl-teucoe; aro brought to
bear upon their moral charnctbrs. To the polls
then early! remembering that as soon at good
men hue their interest in political na soon as they
become lukewarm,.ks soon axvirtuous moananro
no longer resorted to for ifie’purpose of persuading;
end convincing. our liberties aro t in .danger, 'and
the glorious government wh ch gives protection to
our rights of person amf property, nnd to which
we all owe the .deb; of love Cud, watchful ness,
totters to its fail. ,
And the Georgia Whig! for'what does ho con
■tend 1 (or what principle 7 for wlitit object f Alas!
the leaders nf that.party, in thoir desperate'game
for political power, have prostituted the support
of many an hottiat Republican to. Federal men

The Noi-tlscrn Draiocrncr ou the Wilutot
I*rovl*o,
Who doubts—what man so rash or silly as lo
deny—that tho Northern Democracy are rapidly
taking stand against thn Wilmnt Proviso 7 He
that denjos it is either without the ordinary per
ception of an iutolligoul creature, or he.is striving
to propagate an errant falsehood.
It is equally true aud obvious (hat tho Northern
Whig Party present an unbroken front in favor
ortho Proviso, and in opposition to tho South —
We give some facts in addition to tho overwhelm-
ing array which has already annihilated tho resis
tance we at first encountered from Uio unscru
pulous partisan Whig Press of Georgia,-to show
that the whole Democracy of the North are true
to their party, their principles, their country.
Air.Buchanan’s letter is already familiar to our
readme. • Mr. Dallas ill efoecent speech, to the
Democracy..of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, took a
■till broader ground ngalust the Proviso. Mr
Buchanan is in favor of llto Missouri Comproiin-e
end would extoud it to tetritory yet to he acquir.
od ; Mr. Dallas is opposed'to all compromise nnd
assumes as broad a position as Mr. Calhoun could
possibly desire. He uses the following emphatic
language:
But we heir, in some quarters, much talk of
what Is called compromise. I am one of ib.it old
school of Democrat* who will never comprutiifre
the Constitution of my country. This is one of
the words not to he found in (hst instrument. It
waslitelfa reanltuf compromise; but, onco bavin;
become a liiiug of shape, of life, of spirit then ai
compromise .was nt an end. It was a settled prin
ciple,a positive rule—a thing which might be bro.
kou, but having no materials in it which were ca
pable of being bent. Iu.lt are to bo found all the
f trovisinns Ibr our Government; XnU if you wish
or other provisions, you cannot pul. them thero—
all the legialrtiiu.n ol Congress .ckmihl put them

At (he time of (he admission of .Missouri into the

prevailing in sump sections* I had ihetsame opin

thn midst of the ngitmion then manifest, there
were many who could not see where (ho agitation,
would end. Then luon met ingethe^.aud talked
of ’.compromises, and made compromises; and otic

UKADquMreHs Ahmy or Mcxtcx* Rcrokuc, ?
Mexico, Sept.6, 1847. • \
To His Ecallency Gen. Winfield Scott, Com*
inanderin Chief of the Artiiy of the Uuited
Slates:
Sir—ty the note of your Excellency under this
da e I. letrn, with surprise, that you emteidur that
the civil ind military anUiorities of. Mexico have
violated uticloy 7, '12 nnd 3 of the armistice which
I condoled with your Excellency>oii the 2ith of
last ir.o th.
The'cVil and military authorities of Mexico
have notbbstrnotud the p usage of provisions for
the Amriitaan army ; and if at lime* their trans
mission h>* been rutarded.it has been owing to the
imprudence orthe American agents, who. without
having a'previousunderstanding with the proper
unthoriiibs, gave occasion for popular outbreak*,
which 'll ban co*t the Mexican Government much
trouble to repress. Last night uud the night bo-
fore tho escorts for the provision train were rendy
to Start, and wen only detainarl because Mr.
Hargoua, the agent, desired it. The order* given
to suspend tho imarenurso between tho two ar
mies wars addressed to private individuhls, and
not to (be agents ofthe artuy of the Unjted State*,
and were intended' purpmoly to expedite she
transmifsion of provisions to the nrmy, and tu con
fine tho intercourse to that object exclusively —
In return for this cnnducl your Excellency has
prevented the owner* or manager* oT tho groin
mill* in thb vicinity of tho city from furnishing any
flour to the city, which is a true breach ofthe good
faith yoiufyiYceileucy had pledged me.
It is false that any new work or foriifica’inn has
been undertaken,because one or two repair* have
only served to plaoo them in the same condition
they wore in on the dhy the urniisiice was entered
into, accident or the convenience of the hioniont
having canted tho destruction of the then existing
works. You have had enrly notice ofthe establish
ment of the battery covered with the mud walls of
the house of Garry, in thi* city, and did not re
monstrate. because the peace of two great Re
public* could not be made to depend upon thing*
grave in themselves, but of little value compared
lo the result in which ell the friands uf humanity
and of the prosperity of|the American continunt
take *o : greit an interest. (There is some obscu.
rity iffrmk leuteiiem'whiplf it is probable, is osv
in* to typographical emir*.—Eds- I’ic.)
It is riot.without great grief and ov«mi indignation
that 1 have received cotmniinicntiuns fro n tho
cities and villages occupied by the army of your
Escollenoy, in relation to the violation of the tem-
plus consecrated to the worship of God, to the
plunder ofthe sacred vases, and to tho profinatioo
of the images voiloratod by the Mexican people,
Profoundly have 1 been affected by the complaints
of fitthnrs'nnd husbands, ol the violence offered
to their daughters nnd wive.-, and those sume ciyes
and villages have boen sacked not only in violation
of the aroiistice, but of the saorerl principles pro
claimed and respected by civilized nations.-*
I have observed silence to the present moment
in order not to oh-druel the progress of nego
tiation which held out tho hope of tormina
ting a scandalous war, and one whfohy our Excel-
lency has characterised so^jtislly na unnatural.—
But 1 shall desist offering apologies, because I
cannot he blind to the truth that the true cause of
Ihe threat* of renewing hostilities, contained in
the nolo of your. Excellency, is that I have not
been willing*to sign a treaty which would lessen
cnnsiduratdy tho rerrjtory of the Republic, and
not"dnly the territory of tho Republic, bin llutl
dignity and integrity which nil nations dofeml to
tho Inst ‘extremity. A'id if those considerations
h'nVe not the same weight In tho mind of your Kx-
ceilanoy. the respnn-ihility before the world, who
can easiiy distinguish on which side ia modera
tion slid justice, will foil upon yon.
I flitter myself that your Excellency will be
convinced, on calm reflection, of the weight of
my'rensou*. But. if by misfortunn, you should
seek only h pretext to dcptivB tho first city of the
American continent of nn opportunity to free tiie
unarmed population of the horrors of war. there
will bb left mo On other moans, of salvation, but to
repel force by force, with the decision and energy
which my high obligations impose upon me.
I have the honor to be,your Excellency’* hum
ble. servant,
