CO’JSTI TUTION AUST.
ft. AUGUSTA.
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18. 1825.
The election of Governor Troup, which
is now beyond all doubt, furnishes a theme
for exultation and gratitude, but as we have
ever endeavored to bear our faculties as
meekly as possible, we shall not upon the
present occasion, offend those who differ
from us in sentiment, by any evidences of
I joy or triumph. The election has ended
as we wished, and while it is frankly con
-4 fessed we expected a larger majority, a se
f\ nous lesson is imparted by the Very major
s i( y we h*ve gained. That the Governor is
an honest man—a firm friend of the Union
* -rand no less so of state rights, his friends
well know, but the warmth with which he
has expressed himself, has been liable to
misconstruction, and most severely used to
a h' B prejudice in the late contest. A puh
-1 lie man should, at least in his written lan
guage, exercise great caution, for if a sen
tence or a phrase be susceptible of two
meanings, his enemips will, even while pro
i fessing charity and forbearance, seize that
S' which is most against him, and use it in fur-
A therance of their purposes, miserable as
( ftuch purposes may be; We have heard,
i with some astonishment, Governor Troup
tff accused of. treason, rebellion, and what not,
V and his own words quoted for proof ;
J words which to our untutored wits, appear-
I ed perhaps too full of zeal, but in every o
-1 ther respect perfectly innocent. \Ve are
1 sure that the Governor never dreamed ol
| disunion, and if he has .upon the invasion
7 of our State Rights, sounded the alarm a
j j little too roughly, shall we not consider the
I \ nature of the provocation and of the cause
(* I advocated, and make some allowances foi
1 the feelings of a patriot, who has not beer
| 1 accustomed to dress his words in the silkei
v i decorations of compliment. But it is un
>* necessary to apologise—Governor Troup ii
•till to occupy the Executive chair, and w<
look forward anxiously to the moment wher
a moderate and magnanimous conduct per
Severed in to the end, shall dispel the er
rors that have been so industriously spread
A abroad to his injury. Upon the subject ol
,? our controversy with the U nited States, ni
/ two Georgians can differ. Our wrongs arc
so palpable that they cannot be overlooked :
| and even if we were disposed to fall down
and worship the great Federal Idol—the
course to be pursued towards Georgia at tht
, ne*t session of Congress will make oui
i knees stubborn and our necks inflexible.—
\ After one or two debates at Washington, w«
j# expect to hear from the lips of many, o
, those most opposed to Gov. Troup a violepct
I equal in degree jo that so bitterly complain
ed against. Philosophic as we may be—mile
cheery and gentle—we shall not smile—m
matter to what party we belong—when oui
, sovereignty is derided, our just claims scorn
» erf, and our character and .feelings misrep
resented. We trust thfit the Legislature
i will speak out in these matters—firmly bui
ft decorously—and that their efforts may be
I seconded both j»y Governor and our del
egation in Congress. ’ We shall then possi
bly, acquire a hard struggle, what Go
vernur Troup has been ever so anxious te
obtain^— the possession of our lands.—
We venture to hope further, that as the ex
citement of the late election will not be fell
[ at Milledgeville, the Legislature will the
i more readily bestow an undivided attention
upon roads and water-courses —the in
terests of literature and lastly, what is
of gi atest importance to the happiness ol
3 our people,—a simplification of our present
\ judicial system, and a court of appeals,
* In relation to this last, public opinion has
I undergone a great change, and it is really
t Surprising that it should have been deluded
so long; for we should avoid much delay and
expence independent of other considerations,
I by the alteration of our system, and the cs
, tablishment of such a court.

severe gale of wind here on Sunday morn

wharf and lower part of the town. Ttie
sloop Eagle was blown up into the marsh,
V and the United States Cutter blown high up
in the woods.—No lives lost.

!. Public Debt. —We learn by the Nation
al Intelligencer, that on the first day of this
month, 86,187,006 of toe principal of the
public debt, were paid off and extinguished
—being all that remained of the six per
cent, stock of the year 1812.

WE could not h§lp being Amused by *
the editorial remarks in the laaTThronicle
relative to the re-establishment of the Jewish
government! the appointment of a judge, &c.
with the lung drawp arguments and far
fetched conclusions of the Editor—five col
umns of a paper, which at best contains less
than six upqn an average, (other than ad
vertisements) were wholly devoted to the
subject i with a promise that his readers
should be edified with Mr. Noah’s speech
■ in the next, which we presume will’occupy
five, or six more of his columns. —ln thus
attempting tp give us too much of a good
thin g we find what is rather remarkable—
not one single article of either foreign or
. domestic news in the whole paper, which
| indeed contains but three things—viz. a let
ter from Dr. Cooper on the common Law,
1 with a sketch annexed—from an English
* Biography, letting us know who Doct.
• Cooper is—then follows the all important
, subjept of the Jews:—and lastly, a small
} extract from the Columbia Telescope, rela
five to the solvency of the Batik of Augus
: ta.
The Editor having but recently commen
. ced operations may be excused for confin
j ing himself to subjects of minor iraportarice "
_ until experience snail fledge his quill and
enable him lo soar aloft, on wings of fancy
t to realms beyond the ken of mortal vision.
But what appears most remarkable in the
g whole paper is this:—The Editor in spealfc-
ing of the sketch of'Qr. Cooper, suddenly
’ bursts forth into a eulogy upon the “ genu-
P ine liberality” displayed in said sketch as
t, being “ highly creditable to the British Na
_ tion” &c. It is the first time that we re
>. collect a biographical work to be the organ
of government, or even of the 'people, and
in this case it Was wholly inapplicable, be
e cause Dr. Cooper is an Englishman himself,
d and the British are always ready to puff
n their countrymen, and abuse others. (We
a however believe that Dr. Cooper is fully
worthy of all that has been said of him )
e We rather suspect that a fair opportunity
e has not been afforded the Editor of the
,r Chronicle to come out and let us know, that
n as the Federal party are in power that he
has enlisted in the cause.—Or from this
overstrained praise of the British Nation,
that he is a candidate for such enlistments,
is We wish him success in his application and
re his subscribers a little varietv whether Jew
n or Gentile. MUS IN FICE.
’■ THE NEW COMET.
r- Mr. Bunoe,
d ' Thebe has one of those tyan
jf dering celestial bodies made its appearance
0 in the planetnry regions, in the southern
hemisphere, which no astronomer has had
;c the glory to predict or foretell. The time
1 of its appearance, its tail, or train, is about
n 8 degrees in length, and is not turned di
e rectly from the sun as other Comets are,
but declines from it towards those parts
Ie which are left by the Comet, its direction of
ir motion in the Heavens are retrograde, and
rises after eight, P, M. and continues visi
,e We during the remainder of the night.
. These wandering bodies have engaged the
1 attention of the learned and superstitious
:e in all ages of the vyorld ; by the learned they
i- have been regarded as the causes of the
d drowning of the antediluvian world, anik
0 it has also been observed that the transient
effects of a Comet passing near the earth
Ir causes high tides, and the weather to be re
i- markabiy warm and wet for the season.
»- By the superstitious; they are regarded as
, e the harbingers of awful controversies, both
in the political and physic d world, wars,
famine, pestilence, and other dreadful evils.
