c j N r s rim rio.v alis t. * _ c AUGUSTA. c TUESDAY, OCTOBER U, 1823. « We refer our readers to the Postscript ' for news relative to the European Cotton Market, brought from England by the pack et * dp Lee.ls, Stoddard, which arrived at Ncw-York on the 7th ult. from Liverpool, ( whence she sailed on the 24th of August. " v The second drawing of the Augusta Ma- v sonic Hall Lotterv, takes place on Wed- * * l r » S uesday next, 13th of October, To the cit- | i/.ens of Georgia the prosperity of (his Lot- r tery must bring great pleasure—to the Ma-ja son, as well as to the advocate of internal c improvement. Sordid motive cannot be at- c 1 # I $ tributed to adventurers in this scheme for| the advancement of a most ancient and res pectable fraternity, and the improvement and beautifying of our city are, we dare to t say the principal inducements to those who have, and to those who may yet embark in! • it. This mode of “ raising the wind” has; been den; unced by some as having an im- 1 moral tendency, but we, after due and pro per consideration of the subject, have come to the conclusion, and (he majority of our' citizens will think with us, that we should ' be troubled with very few qualms of the conscience upon pocketing thirty thousand dollars, even if Fortune had thrown the same to us through the wheels of a Lottery. Neither are we of so nice a nature as to re ject a dollar because it may hive been soil ed by dirty handling. Lotteries in some > instances may have tended otherwise than pro bonn publico, but nevertheless when properly applied and correctly conducted are much more beneficial to the public than, many other systems and projects, which have! not only escaped the censure, but met with' the approbation and support of the virtuous and considerate part of the community.— But the unprecedented success of (he pres ent scheme precludes the necessity of far ther remark, and we doubt not but that j those who may not draw prizes, will rest contented with having given so much to ward, the erection of a Masonic Hall.

I The Ogeechee Cvud. —Extract of a let- 1 tec to the editors ot the Georgian, dated 1 New-York, 23th Sept. 1825. —“ I under-j stand that Me, Jencks, who is now here, t has had several interviews with Governor * Clinton on the subject of his proposed ca-S rial to the Ogeechee, and that the Governor spoke, in Ivgh terms of the utility and sue I cess of the project, but strongly recommend- s ed it to be carried to tlie Alatamaba, giving 1 : t as bis opinion that it would return 25 t per cent, on the cost. Mr, J. I also under- ' stand, has engaged Governor Clinton’s! ’ son, Dewitt Clinton, Jr. Civil Engineer, toll survey the ground, and that he will visit 1 Savannah, for that purpose, in December;i next. As soon as the survey is completed, and exhibited, it is conjectured, that if it be required, funds can he obtained here. Georgian. Commodore Porter. —This gallant officer honored Chatham Garden Theatre last eve ning with his presence. It was some tinm i before it was known that be was there, but i as soon as it was ail eyes were turned to wards the box where be sat. When the cur- < tain fell, »be audience spontaneously gave him three cheers, ami the band plaved “ Hail Columbia.” The audience cried out •• Had to the Chief, ” but the gentlemen of the orchestra knew not their meaning, or at any rate did not seem disposed to attend to it. The curtain arose for the firce, but so incensed were the audieuce that they order- ed it down immediately, and the piece was not permitted to proceed until the music complied with the request. Down went toe curtain ; the band then played toe tune, and the audience gave three cheers for the sec ond time. Com. Porter was dressed uncom monly plain, and it appeared as if he did not wish to attract notice. [A 7 . V. Eve. Post, 28 th ult. Sr Augustine, Sept. 27. We learn from the Florida Agency, that Capts. Clarke and Yancy had arrived there on the 20th inst. from I'ampa Bay, on their way to the Alachua, and are engaged in sur veying (he route for a road from the Gulf to the latter place. Tois road is to be con structed by the United States troops, and is expected to be completed by the Ist July next. The survey of the road from the Al achua to Camp Pinkney would be commen ced immediately by Capt. Burch, and its construction would be by contract. This is something like progression; the only point \jp; should look at.—/?. F. Herald. In the District Court of the city and county of Philadelphia, an action of slander .was recently instituted by E. ft. Banks, a [young mechanic, against John Gibbs, Lot tery offiee keeper, Gibbs having charged jhim with having altered lottery tickets. A 'verdict was returned in favor of the plain tiff for 750 dollars damages. i The Revolutionary worthy, the venerable John Trumbull, of Connecticut, author of McFingal, arrived in New-York on the 27th ult. on his way to Detnot, where he intends to spend the remnant of his days , A public dinner was given to him by t' j people of Hartford prior to his departure. I Gen. Donnadieu was caned on the Boule vards by Col. Deschamps ; the General did not call out bis enemy, which occasioned (he application of epithets easily guessed at. !" Why,” said Madame poor Donnadieu for not noticing what pass es behind his back. , ' > —— j Dr. A. G. Hull, of the city of New-York, has recovered a verdict of gl 10 against Lee & Hopkins, of Hartford, (Con.) for an in fringement of his patent for the improved hinge truss. The defendants were agents for Farr’s trusses. India Co'ton. —The following is an ex tract from a letter received in Boston, da ted in Calcutta, April 8, 1825 —“ The po pulation of Western India has so much in creased since the termination of the Maha ratta War in 1813, that the cotton now pro duced in Hindustan is not more than suffi cient for the wants of the country ; in proof of this, we may state, that twenty years ago cotton was procurable in the interior so as to make it cost, landed in Calcutta, 8 to 9 rupees per hazard mauncl ; whereas of late, though the cultivation has been estima ted by the high prices of 1817 and 181.9, die article could never be had at less than 13 rupees, delivered in Calcutta. We are in dined to think, therefore, that the article in future will seldom bt exported from the Hooghly.” SWORD FISH, j We have often read accounts of the as tonishing power of the Sword Fish. But we do not recollect to have ever seen any thing quite so extraordinary as the following:— The ship Fortune which arrived at Ports mouth. (N. H.) last Tuesday week, in 90 days from Talcahuano, was struck ou the sth August. 1824, in lat. 31 degrees N. long. 150 E. near the timber heads about midship, by a sword fish. The sword struck the ship with such violence as to pass through the copper, and from thence |ihs. inch pine sheathing, Sj inch white oak plank, a 9 inch white oak limber, and a 2| inch white oak coiling into the ship’s hold ; when it passed through a stick of pine wood 3j inches I .ck, and from thence through a white oak 1 inch stave into an oil cask, leaving the noint the distance of U inches into the oil. The sword broke off 2 or 3 inches from th. mtside of the ship, and remained iu that situation during a cruise of about 10 months, when it was discovered in the harbor of Talcahuano. During this time the ship leaked, in moderat weather 250 strokes, and when sailing quick about 130 strokes an boar. The form of the sword is oval, and the part which remained in the ship’s plank was about 12 inches in circumference.— The part which perforated the cask com pletely filled the hoie which it made, so as m prevent any leakage of the oil with which it was filled.
