tw than peace, and satisfactorily answer the same, before they commit themselves to the mad schemes of disorganizes and traitors who infest the land. Neero Insolence.—'Ye don’t know that \ve hare much sympathy to expend upon those South erners, who have been -o outrageously treated at Cape May, by the colored society oi that watering place. I't is about the treatmeut they deserve, for going to such places and spending their money so freely among the enemies of our institutions. The tide of travel North from the South,ha, been nnuas ually great, this summer, and not a few of the ultra 30 30 men latitude have helped to swell that tide’ Hundreds of thousands of Dollars are thus spent, yearly, in giving ‘aid and comfort’ to aboli tion fanaticism —for money is the sinew of war every w j, er e # Perhaps, then, it will be well for the South, eventually, if the colored gentry of the free States will make that section too hot to hold Southerners during the summer solstice. The latter will then stav at home, or visit their own watering places and healthful mountain scenery, and the whole Southern community will thereby be benefitted. We repeat then, that we are rather disposed to rejoice at the ‘strike’ among the negroes at Cape May, than grieve over the circumstance as an awful calamity. From such evils good is often educed, in a wonderful man ner, and this may be one of the cases. MorC Modesty. —The Charleston News has the fol lowing paragraph about the Press of Augusta, in an article complimentary of the latter city : “Augusta is a glorious place with respect to the Press.— W’e glory in being of kin to such Editors and Printers. They are all perfect gentlemen, not like ourselves, poor looking, serawnv men; but men of good proportions—calculated to enteh the glance of approbation at first sight; men who write well; have honest hearts; aiul the genuine spirit of benevo lence.” The Republic copies the “flattering unction,” “with all due modesty,” it says! Glad to hear it, though we could not help wondering if Porter had ever seen “Andy” when he pronounced all the Editors of Augusta ‘ perfect gentlemen.” TfXaS.—The greatest farce of the age is that now being enacted on the Texas boards by Gov. Bell rais ing 8000 volunteers to go against New Mexico ! For Tjxhs, that never owned a foot of New Mexico; that never conquered it for a moment—that is not now able to protect herself from the Camanchee and other Indians in her N. W. border below 32 degrees to undertake to bully Uncle Sam and invade New Mexico is certainly a most ridiculous ‘movement as well as highly ungrateful towards the government that has done so much for the quondam “lone star.” Gov. Bell, however, is one of Judge Colquitt’s sort of men, wto only pretend to show fight, in order to frighten ‘Uncle Sam’ into measures. We hope, at least, that when he hears the jingle of that ten mil lions of Dollars, he will dismiss his ‘rangers’ to the arts and deployments of peace and ‘pocket the insult as, quietly as possible. Senator Houston on the Protest. Tnc Texas Senator in dissenting from the views of the late pretest as to the boundary of Texas, thus spake:— . He loved, (he said) and the State he represented loved, this I'u ion to well to countenance any treasonable design or move ment. They had had too much trouble and anxiety to.get into the Union, to have any desire to get out ot it again, lie was ill the Union, and could not be whipped out of it. Ilis State would stand bv the l nion forever. Senatorial Protest. —The Senators from South Carolina, Virginia and Florida, Turney of Tenn., Soule of Louis., Davis of Miss, and Atchison of Missouri, have published a protest against the action of the Senate on the admission ot California, which was re fused a place on the records of that body. We see nothing in this Document worthy of any special no tice, the substance of it being the thrice told tale of injustice towards the South, which has been ringing incur ears, for the last eight months. Arthur’s Home Gazette. We have received a specimen No. of anew weekly paper about to be commenced in Philadelphia, by I. S. Arthur, E?jv who has been long and favorably known to the readers of Magazine literature, as one of the most interesting writers of tha country. He is distinguished for lus sound practical delineations of every day life incident, and domestic house hold historv, in all of which a tine moral lesson is happily conveyed. Ilis new Gazette will be a paper fertile “ Home I'irele,” in which a series of “Original Nouvelettes ’ by the editor, will be an important feature. The following are the terms of the Gazette, which we doubt not, will be a valuable family Journal; — One copy, per annum, in advance, $2,00; three copies So.oo nix copies for SIO.OO ; ten copies far $1.,00; fourteen copies for $20,00.

GoDKv’a Lady’s Book. —The Book for September, is al ready in hand, and a capital number it is, containing 20 embel lishments, the Ist, 2d and 3d of which, to wit: “A Family Party,” “ The Rose,” and “ Purity,” are extremely beauti ful. The letter-press is of the usual high order of excel lence. Gr aram’s Magazine.—Graham for September contain contributions from 26 different writers, among whom we no tice; Herbert, \V. Gilmore Sims, Mrs. Sigourney, Mrs. Neal Park Benjamin, T. H. Chivers, M. D,, and others, of the ablest writers. The embellishments are “He comes not”— an exquisite stipple engraving—Paris Fashions, figures in costume—Dance of the Mandan Indians —Rail Shooting, and Music. Pierce’s Bill. The fallowing is a synopsis of the Bill of Mr. Pierce which H'scd the Senate:— 1- The bill provides that, if the proposition is agreed to by ‘Legislature of Texas, by the first of December next, it ,hl 'l he obligatory on the United States and Texas. ~ The Northern boundary to commence at the interscc f mos the 100th degree of west longitude with the parallel ’ 30 minutes North latitude; running thence n that parallel to the 103d parallel of West longitude, thenee to the 32d parallel of North latitude, and along that Wrallel to the Rio Grande; and thenee down that river to Gulf of Mexico. Texas to relinquish all claims to territory North of the boundary proposed, and also all claims under articles of an nexation, h United States in consideration of the above, to cause to be paid to Texas in U. S. stock. live millions reserved to meet payment of Texan bonds -'-d upon faith of custom house duties. A Good Sign. —We notice that the Constitution alist and the Albany Patriot are proposing the non commercial intercourse policy as the best way for the South to get even with and ahead of the North, iu everything that constitutes political independence and greatness. This we view as a sign that these Editors have discovered the people of Georgia are not in favor of any lighting or bloody-line ultima tums, so long as other peaceable and constitutional measures are within their reach and may be used more efficiently against northern fanaticism, through northern cupidity. May we not hope that other ul tra prints will adopt the same views and thus effect that union of sentiment and action in the South which is so necessary and desirable to our prosperity and independence as a people ? Restriction on Debate,— ln the House, on Monday ol last week, a resolution to restrict discus sion was passed by a vote of 112 to 42. This a mendment of the Rules allows a member five min utes to explain an amendment and five minutes for a reply, extending the same privilege to an amend ment, but no further. By the adoption of this rule the factious minority in the House will not be able to do much, by parliamentary tactics, to delay the vote ot the House ou the several bills passed by the Senate. Ihe revolutionary project of the Commit tee ot which Mr. Toombs is chairman will therefore in all probability, be defeated, as it ought to be.— There is, confessedly no use for further discussion of the slavery question and it is worse than useless, therefore, to procrastinate the final vote thereon. Not a Judge of Diamonds,— The “Yankee Blade” man has been delving into our ’Valiev of Diamonds” and finding fault with the quality of some of the perns which he has thence dug up. He thinks the specimens are not creditable to the skill of the Lapidary, our friend Dr. Chivers. Go to, Mr. Blade, it is because your steel is too soft. You are not, perhaps, a judge of the article of the ‘first wa ter class, your experience being more extensive in the mock and paste imitation. A Smart Lawyer.—There is a lawyer in Geor gia, no matter where, who has made most of his fees by volunteering his services in all cases that he thinks will admit of his interference. And it is of little concern to him whether he gains the case or loses it for his client. On one occasion he volun teered to defend a vagabond who had been arraign ed for ‘assault and battery,’ upon a respectable cler gyman. The case was so aggravated that no other lawyer would have any thing to do with it. Our he ro, however, readily undertook the work, for a con sideration, and so effectually prejudiced his client’s case, by a most abusive speech against the Clergy and Christianity, that the Judge was too much ex cited to give judgment until the following day—and when it did come —it was SSOO fiue A G months im prisonment! Just ten times as much as it would have been had it not been for the brilliant perform ance of the ‘learned counsel!’ This same ‘smart lawyer,’ it is reported, lately smuggled himself into a case before the Supreme Court where other lawyers were engaged, and secur ed a fee of S2OO for himself, without rendering an equivalent. He had first volunteered on behalf of the State, but finding that he could make more out of the criminal, he managed to change sides and se cured the spoils, as aforesaid ! After this, can any one wonder at the high rank which the Bar of Georgia has attained for profession al tact and legal acumen ! Shade of Blackstonc ! hide your diminished head in view of that superior ity which may be envied, but cannot be reached, ex cept by some such extraordinary luminary as the one of whom we now make honorable mention. The Corn and Wheat Crop.—lt is satisfactory to know that though the corn crop lias partially fail ed in the South it is very good elsewhere. A late number of the New-York llerold says : ‘The harv est throughout the country is now finished, and we are satisfied the amount ot wheat produced is great er than ever before. In the Western States, where corn has heretofore been the principal crop, an im mense amount of wheat has been grown this year. In Missouri alone, the surplus is estimated at five hundred thousand bushels, and this is one of the smallest wheat growing states, The corn crop has suffered some in almost every direction, in conse quence of drought, but that occurred before the grain began to form, and should the month ot Aug ust prove favorable, a greater amount of corn will be raised than ever before known.’ The Ckoivs in Cherokee. —The crops of corn, in this sec tion of the State, says the Marietta Advocate, of the 15th iust., have been greatly injured by the recent drought. In some spots, favored by partial rains, the fanners will make a full crop. Seasonable rains would greatly benefit late plantings; but taken generally, so far as we are informed, there will be little, if any, surplus grain in Cherokee Georgia. The W heat crop is admitted to have been short, and this followed by a de ficiency in the corn crop, will render prices high for the com ing season. Cotton. —The last number of the United States Journal says : ‘The Cotton year is nearly closed, and the receipts of the latest dates were within a tri fle of two million bales. There will probably be added fifty thousand, certainly not more, to com plete the aggregate for the year. The shipment of Cotton to Great Britain, for the commercial year en ding September Ist, 1850, will but slightly exceed one million bales. This includes her export to the continent, Her own consumption for the year is a bout 750,000 bales of American Cotton. Last year she received 1,600,000, and consumed 1,300,000. This is indicative of the rapid increase of our home consumption, and the day will come, when we can not spare her one bale. Though the quantity in exports has decreased, the value, owing to enhanced prices, has increased bv 15 millions.’ Dissolution . —The copartnership heretofore existing be tween the undersicned, is dissolved by mutual consent—to take effect on the Ist dav of September next.

BROWN. Clinton, Jones County, April 2d, 1830. —C ertifi ca t e. — This will certify that we witnessed, at the plantation of Mr. Wil liam Johnson, in this county, the performance of a Cotton Press re cently invented and patented by Mr. A. 1). Brown, of this place, and can, with confidence,recommend it to the public. Its great power, convenience and simplicity of structure, renders it, in our estimation, eth best that we have seen, it packs downward, which we deem ve ry essential; can be placed as near the lint room as desired, andean he easily covered in and made very durable. Samvel Griswold, I Thomas Hunt, Horatio Bowen, | Jona. Par.tih. April 2d, 1850. 6—ts f'l'VlE ad vantages of this new POWER PRESS, audits superiority JL over all others, are as follows: The power applied is multiplied 440 times, by the Lever and Eccen tric pully, that is, one hundred pounds power applied to the Lever will exert a force 24,000 pounds on the Cotton. The whole top of the bale box is open to receive the Cotton, and it may be put as near the Gin House as is desired. It is three times as powerful as a screw of 18 inches diameter, that .ha; a nine inch pitch of thread with the same length of Lever, and of course the horse has to walk but one third as far, for the reason that a lever is required but one-third as long to do the same work. And further. ffie Press follow er descends with much greater rapidity at the commencement of the operation, when but little power is required, which shortens the distance travelled by the liorre, in proportion to the increased velocity of the follower at the start. This Press can he made .very compact, and equally powerful, by using the wheel and axle, and can be so modified as to answer any purpose where a Press is necessary for manufacturing or domestic purposes. For Cotton it requires out-fourth less work to build, and three-fourth, s less work to raise, than the screws, and if acast iron Ec centric w heel is used, it will not be much over half the icork to build as a screw. For Pressing Cotton, Tobacco, Hemp, Hay, itc. it cannot be excelled. There is one-third less timber in this Press than in the crew, and it is certainly tli cheapest ever built. [The whole cost ofthe Irons will not exceed $45, which may he had ofO. H. Levy, of Macon, who is the only person authosized to furnish CERTtrl’ ATE rROM MR.

I found no difficulty iu building from the directions fu rnislied by Mr. Brown, and found it much less work than to build the Screw.
