How muchof our so-called “Aristocracy” is founded on false foundations, drawn from false sources 1 How many of these conse quential buildings are built upon a sandy foundation 1 Separate many from their wealth, from their property, their station, t l ie ir bloated “ rank"— leave the man noth ing but what his Maker gave him—two hands, two feet, and five corporeal senses— with which to operate for “ weal or woe,” und he will as much resemble an Aristocrat, -as a dead body without the soul resembles a living man. The acquisition of wealth presupposes the exercise of some intelligence, and the culti vation of many virtues; and he who has from early youth been disciplined to patient hab its of industry, and mingled with tnen of va rious, hut sober walks of life, is more useful both to his country and generation, than lie who is year after year basking in the warm beams of a Democratic sun—living to and for himself, arogating to his bosom the title of “Democrat” —while his very soul loathes the smell of the honest yeomanry of the country, elevated upon the Aristocracy of wealth. The objections of Aristocrats to the prac tical operations of a strictly Democratic go vernment are the very causes which so strongly attach us to its principles. What jbey alledge as its faults and blemishes are, in our view, its most unexceptionable fea tures. Its dependence draws forth our sym pathies. ’Twhs not the mere result of ac cident, blind casualty, force nor fraud had anything to do with its institution. Man was the agent in the hand of Omnipotence, in the hand of Wisdom, in the hand of God, and as a child is so unusually attached to an aged parent, so also are the sons of Democracy more and more endeared to their honored Father as his already silvered locks become whiter and whiter by the lapse of vears ! 13.

MADISON, GEO l Saturday, November 5, 1842. NOVEMBER. “But see the fading many colored woods, Shade deepening over shade the country round Imbrown ; a crowded umbrage, dusk, and dun, Os every hue, from wan declining green To sooty dark.” The last of the autumnal months is pas sing away. In the more Northern latitudes already has Winter set in—already has he thrown his white mantle o’er the earth, arid with his chains of frost bound the leaping rivulets, while the deep respirations of his frigid breath are heard in the wailing of the blast. In angry gusts he leaps over vale and mountain, and all nature shudders in his rude embrace. Aye, Northward “ The rigid influence falls Through the still night, incessant, heavy, strong, And seizes Nature fast. It freezes on ; Till morn, late rising o’er the drooping world, Lifts her pale eye unjoyous.” Not so with thee, blight land of “ the sun ny South” not yet hath all thy vernal charms departed. Clothed in russet vest ments thy lovely vales still please the sense, and even now, as they reflect the rays of the dccling sun, aro lovelier far than art can im itate. 1 lie feathered songster still shelters in thy variegated boughs, as if loath to leave so bright a home—and with his parting song welcomes the Northern wanderer, who, with his brood,have been driven forth by-Ilie win try blasts of that less genial clime. But there is melancholy in thy beauty ; decay and death are pictured in thy parting love liness, as when some beauteous spirit’s hec tic cheek is lighted with a smile, e’en while the closing eyelids are bedewed with tears. “ For now the leaf Incessant rustles from the mournful grove, Oft startling such as studious walk below, And slowly circles through the waving air. But should a quicker breeze amid the houghs Sob, o’er the sky, the leafy deluge streams. Till chok'd, and matted with the dreary shower 1 he forest-walks, at every rising gale, oil wide the wither'd waste and whistle bleak.” lints comes November to garner in the mitiad harvest of the earth. Pensive and sad he moans the funeral dirge while he lays the children of nature to rest upon the ma ternal bosom. There is a lesson for tho thoughtful in the passing year—wc may say the funeral rites of Nature—which should not bo idly passed. When all around is dy ing—when all that was bright and beautiful m nature, is passing away—obeying tho aw- Ini fiat to which all living must sooner or later how— what timo so appropriate for self-communion ? what time so fit For those whom wisdom and whom nature charm to steal themselves from the degenerate crowd, And soar above this little scene of things— To tread low-thoughted vice beneath their feet— Jo soothe the throbbing passions into pence— And woo lone Quiet in her silent walks?” A large number of English nieclmn lC!l i to obtain employment in this country, recently sailed from Philadelphia for their old homes. THE ELECTION Ordered by the Inferior Court, to fill the vacancy in our County representation, was held on Monday last,and resulted as follows: Robeit H. Fret well, .... 363 \Yilliam O. Saffold, - - - - 31S Mr. Fretwell’s majority, - - 45 Both candidates are Whigs—the success ful one running in opposition to the regular nomination. { * Mr. James Cullinane desires infor mation of his brother, Edmund Cullinane, a native of Ireland, about forty years of age, who, he states, was last heard of in Madison, Morgan County, in the fall of 1537. Mr. C. is about five feet seven inches in height, thick-set, black hair, and somewhat freckled. Any information respecting him would be gratefully received by Mr. James Cullinane, addressed to the care of Mr. John O’Neal, Honeoye Falls, Monroe County, Nevv-York. NATURAL PHENOMENON. A pumpkin of the medium size was pre sented to us one day last week byourtowns man Judge W. Harris, the interior of which presented a most singular appearance. The pumpkin was perfectly sound, and external ly there was no decay or other mark to dis tinguish it from the rest, but on being bro ken the seeds were found to have germina ted and put forth vines to the extent of five or six inches, which were matted together, filling the entire cavity. What was still more remarkable was the natural, healthy appearance of the young shoots, which re sembled the natural growth of the vegetable when planted in the ordinary way—the two first leaves being about the size of a dime, and perfectly green. There was no discov erable break in the rind, nor any aperture by which air might be admitted. We leave the phenomenon to lie accounted for by those who are better acquainted with the mysteries of vegetation than ourself. We cannot but think, however, that if the followers of Miller were to witness such ec centricities in the pumpkins of the North, they would cite the circumstance as corro borative of their theory respecting the end of all things. There would be persuasion enough in the argument, that nature, fore seeing the termination of all life, and having no use for her seed next year, hail indulged in such freaks for pastime, to make a thou sand converts anions; those whose heads bear such a strong affinity to the vegetable O O in question. THE LEGISLATURE Commences its Session on Monday next. Perhaps a more important Session has not been held for years. Much of vital interest to the people must be transacted, atul we do sincerely hope that the Members will address themselves to the task with a just sense of the responsibility resting upon them, and a firm determination to discharge their duty faithfully to their country, re gardless of petty party considerations, jeal ousies or prejudices. The affairs of the Central Bank will demand their attention —some adjustment of our deranged curren cy is demanded by the people of all par ties, and it is earnestly to be hoped by eve ry Georgian that another Session of the Legislature will not be permitted to pass without some decisive and salutary acliou on this subject. Next in interest, and in difficulty, will be the apportionment of the State in accordance with the provisions of the District Law. We hope that Georgia will set a worthy example in this matter— or, at least, that she will not follow the ex ample of some of her sisters. Questions of State policy, Internal Improvement, Ed ucation, and innumerable other matters, are to be disposed of. May wisdom and patri otism preside over their deliberations, and direct all for the good of the people, let who may receive the credit. 05 s * The “ big gun” flashed in the pan last week, or something else was the matter, for it didn’t go oft'. Perhaps it is trying to come the “silent contempt” over us. This would have been a very judicious resoit at an earlier stage of the game, but it does not look so well after so much powder has been burnt. If the “ mortal engine” has really adopted this method of carrying on the war, instead of counterfeiting “theiinmortalJove’s dread clamors,” as heretofore, we may con sole ourself with the reflection, that we have just as much “ silent contempt” to spare as he has, and with a single word of advice we will lay aside our pen and join him in the use of the weapon he has adopted. When next his chivalric spirit would lead him to attack a “ wind instrument,” let him pause and reflect upon the battle of his great pro totype with tho wind mill j then, perhaps, lie will conclude to adopt hU “ silent con tempt” in the outset. THANKSGIVING. Nearly all the Governors of the States have, by proclamation, designated some day as “ a day of general thanksgiving, humilia tion and prayer.” Thursday next has been appointed for that purpose by the Governor of Sonth-Caroliua. Why is this truly Chris tian usage neglected in Georgia? Have we not as much to bo thankful for as our neigh bors ? Wo certainly have as much to pray for. a <d uhp ana ib a saas <bibil & PROSPECTS OP AGRICULTURE. Some time since we alluded in the “Mis cellany” to the necessity of our Planters turning their attention to the cultivation of some other of the various productions of our soil, instead of making Cotton, as heretofore the chief object of their attention. The pre sent low prices of our great staple afford the best and most conclusive argument in favor of such a course, and we are glad to per ceive that several of the leading journals of the South are beginning to discuss the mat ter. The conviction of those who possess the best intelligence on the subject is, that the amount of Cotton produced at present is beyond the consumption, and that instead of the probabilities being in favor of higher prices, the prospect is that unless a portion of the labor and capital now employed in its cultivation is otherwise directed, prices will go down even below those at present paid, which are scarce sufficient to defray the expenses of production. Large bodies of land have, of late years, been opened in the Southern States, and Texas, which have been almost entirely devoted to the culture of Cotton, while the increase from foreign countries under favor of the British govern ment, lias been in a just proportion to that of our own Cotton-growing section. Neith er National policy nor the necessities of the English people, at this time, prompt the en couragement of our great agricultural inter ests ; and while we are dependent upon England for a market for the product of our soil, we must expect fluctuating prices, and such as will—as long as we are the original producers and ultimate consumers—place the balance of profit in the hands of the manufacturers and venders. The Cotton-growing States produce the great bulk of the raw material, but they do not consume near all the manufactured goods, nor need they consume so much as they do of foreign manufacture. Under a proper system of economy, the Southern Planter is in a condition to be as indepen dent as any other class of people, of any eth er country. Let the amount of Cotton an nually produced be diminished twenty or even thirty per cent, and let the labor and capital withdrawn from that branch of agri culture he appropriated to the production of those articles of home consumption for which our money now goes to a foreign market, and not only will the price of our staple im prove and become more steady, but a few years of such policy would place the South ern Planter, in a measure, independent of foreign markets. Within himself would he have the means of support, and comfort, uncontrolled liv the fluctuations of foreign trade. The question presents itself, to what shall the Planter turn his resources and energies to produce this er.d ? Experience must test this question. The chaiiuels of commerce or agriculture are not changed in a day; nevertheless, they must conform to the ne cessity of circumstances bearing upon them. One species of agricultural produce has been suggested, which, perhaps, would lie found very advantageous. Wheat can be grown upon the table lands of Georgia and Caro lina, and even lower down, as well as in most parts of the world. Why not, then, turn our attention to the culture of small grain—the rearing of horses, mules, and other stock—the permanent improvement of our lands ? Flour can be manufactured in Georgia equal to any in the countiy, and can be afforded to the domestic consumer at puces that would command the market, and which would yield a better profit than Cot ton now does. But tins is not the only source of profit that will suggest itself to the prac tical Farmer —we say Farmer for there is a difference between planting Cotton, after the manner of the present day, and that sys tem of judicious husbandry which we would delight to see practiced in Georgia. The true policy of the South is the same as tfiat of every country on earth—self independence ! tt?“ An article is going the rounds in the papers which slates that somebody has writ ten for the “ London Quarterly” a most scorching review of the newspaper press of this countiy —the mode of doing things in Congress, and proceedings of our Courts.— Bennett and otheis of his class get it sound ly, it is said. By some it is attributed to Dickens, and James Gordon, the respectable American editor of the “ Herald,” is about to pour out the vials of his wrath upon Boz in return. Only such lackies as himself who fawned upon, and disgusted, Mr. Dickens with theii fulsome adulation, have any cause to shake in their shoes at what may come from the “ Quarterly.” What does any high-minded, independent American editor care what the English wiite or print about them ? Thero is a class of “ toadies,” as they are called now-a-days, connected with the Northern press, who merit all the splee'n cast upon them by the foreign travellers whom they disgust by their insipid tvvattle about them, on their arrival upon our shores. If Mr. Dickens did return to England with atiy favorable opinion of our people, he did not derive his impressions -from what lie saw of us in our Northern cities, or from what lie read of himself in the New-York papers. PUBLIC SPIRIT OF SAVANNAH. Anew military corps has been formed in Savanna!), called the “Irish Jasper Greens.” The “Republican” says, the company “will makg their first appearance in a few weeks, when it is expected they will turn out up wards of fifty muskets.” This speaks well for the military spirit of our seaboard city, especially when it is recollected that she al ready sustains five as fine volunteer corps as can be found in the Southern States. For one, we shall not soon forget the soldier-like bearing and generous hospitality of the Sa vannahians as it was exhibited on the occa sion of the grand Military Encampment which was held there in May, 1840. Few who participated in the festivities of that occasion returned with any other than the most favorable opinion of Savannah chivalry, enterprise and hospitality. By-tlie-by, what has become of our vol unteer company of which there was some talk not long since ? Is it possible that it has been abandoned ? Is it possible that Madison cannot sustain one corps, while Sa vannah has sixT Wc hope the chivalry of Madison is not content to rest in the “ Ad jutant’s” pocket! Let the list be enlarged and the corps organized, if only for appear ance sake. BREEZE WITH MOROCCO. We have seen allusions in several of our exchanges to a prospect of a difficulty be tween our Government and Morocco. It seems that Commodore Morgan, who bad visited Tangier with two vessels of war has returned hastily to Cadiz in the frigate Con giess, leaving the Fairfield at Tangier, to follow shortly for Cadiz. The Pacha had refused the reparation demanded by the Commodore for the maintenance of the pa cific relations between the Court of Moroc co and the United States, whereupon he had written to the Emperor, and an answer to his letter was expected by the Fairfield.— Should a breeze spring up in this quarter, it will he a God-send to our little Navy, who have already suffered much from want of employment. The adjustment of some such little matters, in the way they would be sure to do it, would elevate this arm of our Na tional defence in public estimation. THE “CHICORA” AND “MAGNOLIA” UNITED. By the last “Chicora” we learn that the editors have transferred their subscription list to the publishers of the “ Magnolia,” with which magazine the subscribers to the former work will hereafter be supplied.— I he “Magnolia” for the present month will contain an engraving of “ Charleston one hundred years ago,” which had been in pre paration for tbe “Chicora.” The accession of the “Chicora’s” list of patrons and con tributors to that of the magazine will, no doubt, enhance the value of the work alrea dy so popular throughout the South. “NEW-YORK HERALD” FOR SALE. Bennett offers his great newspaper estab lishment for sale, giving as a reason that he desires to establish a daily and weekly press in London. Only a few years ago he was not worth a hair-space —now he is enabled to offer for sale one of the most extensive printing offices in the country. By prosti tuting his brilliant talents to the basest pur poses—by the publication of a paper cele brated for the immorality and licentiousness of its pages—he has enriched himself, and is now ready to return to the country from whence he came to vilify and slander the people who gave him bread. Had an Amer ican dared but half the outrages upon “socie ty that this man has perpetrated, instead of a few cow-hidings from injured individuals, he would have been annihilated by the fiery indignation of an outraged public. But Bcn rett is a foreigner, and was not only toleia ted, but patronized and enriched. Glt is stated that anew Magazine is shortly to be established, to be entitled the “ United States Monthly Review,” which is to be sustained by the Whig Party, as an offset to the “ Democratic Review.” If the literature of the countiy is to be mixed up with politics, then it were well that the two great parties should have their acknowledg ed organs, in order that, in the opposite views of National policy advocated by them, they should act as correctives and checks upon each other. We are opposed to the union of politics and literature, as well as to the mingling of politics and religion, but if the men of our country are determined to imitate the example of England in this mat ter, wo hope both parties will be ably rep resented. The “Democraticßeview” is a justly popular megazine, and we doubt not that tbe Whig organ will be equally credit able to tho party whose principles and doc trines It is designed to advocate. C/* Anew monthly Magazine of litera ture, fashion and the fine arts, is shortly to be commenced by Mr. Epes Sargent, to be embellished with steel engravings, music, &c. Mrs. Stephens is also making arrange ments to publish a Magazine. CENTRAL RAIL-ROAD. The “Savannah Republican” of Monday last says: “We understand the cars will commence running daily to Station No. 15, being 153 miles from the city, to-morrow. — This carries them beyond the Oconee, a ve ry important point.” lard lamps. It seems that anew discovery has been made which is not only destined to super sede sperm oil, as has the newly invented lard oil, but even lard oil itself. A lamp has recently been constructed by some en- Ugtening genius, in which common lard is made to burn equal to the finest oil. No preparation is required—the lard may bo taken directly from the firkin and placed in the lamp, which not only burns clear, emitting a brilliant light, hut is per fectly free from all .disagreeable smell or smoke. The grunters are certainly about to supplant the notwithstanding the floundering and spouting of the Nantucket boys, who, it is said, are so out of iiumor about the matter that they can’t give a hog a plcasent look in the face. NEW COTTON GIN. A Cotton Gin on an cntiie new principle is now exhibiting in Savannah, which is said to be a material improvement on the ordina ry saw gin. The editor of the “ Republi can,” who lias seen the machine iu opera tion, says: “ It pulls the cotton from about the seed without at all injuring the staple, at the same time throwing out almost every mote ; so that the cotton has the exact appearance of well carded lints,the fibres being laid straight and opeti. 1 here is none of that napped and cut appearance left by the saw gin; and the cotton has Icrs shorts, and none of the trash produced by crushed seeds and broken leaves of the roller-ginned.” Mr. H. W. Fargo, tin? inventor, is of opin ion that a four foot gin will clean from 300 to 350 pounds of Sea Island Cotton per day. Three of these gins are easily turned by one mule. tt?* A destructive fire occurred in Rich mond, Va., on the night of the 31st ultimo, consuming several factories, warehouses and other buildings, in one of which four hun dred and ninetyjiogsheads of tobacco were stored, which were all entiicly destroyed. The “ Compiler” says, “ the entire loss is about §6o,ooo—some 35,000 or 40,000 of which is not insured. The fire is therefore the most destructive we have had since the burning of the Eagle Hotel, iu December, IS3B. It is evidently the work of an incen diary, all fire about the establishment of Mr. f homas, where it first broke out, having been extinguished at an early hour on Fri day evening, and the flames not being dis covered until three o’clock the next tnorn ing.” “ I say. Jemmy, lend me your last ‘ Miscellany.’ ” “ Can’t do it.” “ Pshaw, pass it over.” “ I tell you I can’t do it ; you wouldn’t lend me your new coat t’other day, you know!” “Nonsense—that’s another thing—l only want to read it to the ladies.” “ Can’t come it, Jerry—l only wanted to wear your coat to go and sec the ladies— Can’t come it this time, Jerry !” “ Well, I’ll not ask you again, I know— 1M subscribe first.” “So you ought to,” said Jemmy, and went on reading his paper. W ish we had more such subscribers as Jemmy : every one such counts two ! A quiet Woman. —A quiet woman is like a still mind, which neither chills the body nor blows dust in the face ; her patience is a virtue thatwinsthe heart of love, andherwis dom makes her wit well worthy regard ; she fears God, and fficth sin ; xhewetli kindness, and loveth peace ; her tongue is tied to dis cretion, and her heart is the Imrborer of goodness : she is a comfort in calamity, and in prosperity a companion : a physician in sickness, and a musician in health ; her ways are the walks towards heaven, and her guide is the grace of the Almighty ; she is her hus band’sdown bed, where his heart lies at rest; and her children’s glass in the notes of her grace, her servants’ honor in the keeping of her house, and her neighbors’ examples in the notes of a good nature: she scorns for tune, and loves virtue, and out of thrift galh ereth charity: *he is a turtle in her love, a lambin her meekness, a saint iu her heart, and an angel in her soul. In sum, she is a jewel unprizeable, and a joy unspeakable ; a com fort in nature uncomparable, and a wife in the Wotld unmatchable. An unquiet Woman. —An unquiet woman is the misery of a man, whose demeanor is not to be described but in extremities ; her voice is tbe pricking of an awl, her eye the poison of a cockatrice, her hand the daw of a crocodile, and her heart a cabinet of horror; she is the grief of nature, the wound of wit, the trouble of reason, and the abuse of time: her pride is insupportable, her anger un quenchable, her will unsatiable, and her mal ice unmatchable ; she fears no colors, she cares for no counsel, she spares no person, nor respects any time : hercommand is must, her reason will, her resolution Shall, und her satisfaction to: she looks at no law, and thinks of no Lord ; admits no command, and keeps no good order : she is a cross, but not of Christ; and a word but not of grace ; a ci na ture, but not of wisdom ; and a servant, but not ofGod. In sum, she is the seed of trouble, the fruit of travail, the taste ot bitterness, and the digestion of death. A word fur Book-borrowers. —Those wlk have collected l>ooks, und whose good na ture has prompted them to accommodate their friends with them, will feel the sting of an answer which n man of wit made to one who lamented the difficulty which he found in persuading his friends to return the vol umes which he had lent them. •* Sir,” said be, “ your acquaintances find, I suppose, that it is much more easy to retain the books themselves, than what is contained in thero.” I would just observe here, that nothing can lie more mean and unkind than to borrow books of persons, and to lose them, as is too frequently the case. If my friend gratifies iny request in lending—if, by so doing he saves me tbe expense of purchasing or £ also, by the loan, I gain considerable infor mation or intellectual profit—it is base and ungrateful either to suffer the book to be in jured or no: to return it. I give this as a hint to some who are more in the habit of borrowing than returning books.— Buck’s Anecdotes. “ The end not Yet."— ln reference to the Miller prophecy the Boston Traveller says; “ We learn from pretty good authority that the lime hitherto fixed by a large number of our fellow citizens for the end of the world has l>een again postponed. Instead of the 23d of April, it will take place on the 4th of July next. The question was decided last week in council by the hoard of directors who have the management of this stupend ous undertaking.” The Boston Slave Case —The Boston Bee of Monday says:—l he slave, George, now in jail under charge of Mr. Wilson, as the agent of Mr. G’ ray, on Saturday last express ed his desire to return to Norfolk with his master, if his wife could he persuaded to accompany him. He says that he was sedu ced away from Norfolk by false represen tations of the comfort of the free negroes at the North, and told that if lie could once get to Boston he would be a free man, and res pected like a white person at the South. He got here safe and with money, but tho negroes here have stripped him of the latter article, and when taken, not a cent was found upon hirr.” \\ bat a dull, insipid, insufferable world were this, did we not hold within ourselves the source of our higher emotions, indepen dent of the petty circumstances and objects by which we are suriounded ! The body has its life—its wants, its privations; hut the power to keep the soul above these con temptable cares, so that it shares not in the never-ceasing bitterness of every-day life— this is the true poetry of our being.
