effects of our labour. Under the head of , Internal Improvements, we would include t the condition of Jails and Court-Houses, s many of which ai, - e in so ruinous a state, as j to be wholly unfit for use, while some of the Counties have not funds to appropriate in repairing them. Our sister State has a good regulation upon this subject, and it might 1 be fortunate if something like it were in- f ; flprjj>ed in our own Code. t i . . Many important statutes need amend ment or alteration. Why should not the Judges be compelled to report once a year 1 any defects which, in the course of prac- 1 tice may be discovered in the Laws ? There r is a provision of this kind in relation to the | criminal law, which it is believed has re- S suited in making our penal code more per fect. f, Upon these hints we may at some future $ moment enlarge ; it will suffice for the < present to express the hope that the ap- , preaching General Assembly may be gov- { erned by wisdom and a single view towards \ the general good, and not by the Ogreish I indicated in the lines from the j dairy-tale at the head of our article. • ' -QO©— Georgia Sugar. —We have just seen a sample of Sugar, from Montgomery County, in this state, which appears to be of as fine a quality as the best New-Orleans Sugar. We understand, that it is cultivated on the pine land, principally, however, fur domes tic consumption. It may be seen at this office. [ Sav. Georgian. " We are gratified to learn,” (says the Telescope,) “ that a company has been formed in the city of New-York, headed by an enterprising gentleman of capital, to establish Iron Works on a large scale in Soulh-Carolina, with a view of manufactur ing iron for the northern market. Extensive • purchases have been made on Broad river, including the works of Jacob Stroup, Esq. of 1 York district, where the principal works will I be located. The iron can be transported to I Charleston by boats descending Broad Riv- I er, passing through four canals, on which I there are 26 locks. The falls passed by I these locks .•/mount to 202 feet. We hail I this enterprise as promising great benefit to I our state, and as evidencing the utility of Rsptjur internal improvements. We most hear ■ oly wish all engaged in it full and complete W success.” -*W»- b The Court of Appeals at Columbia, S. C. p will set on the second Monday in January next. The dockets for the different circuits will then be called in the same order, as at j the last meeting of the appellate Judges. We have accounts from Kentucky which state that the two Courts have commenced | their opposition sittings at Frankfort. This I circumstance is the cause of great perplexity [ to individuals who have cases fur hoaring. , I One of these Courts must be ultimately sus- I tained : and the decisions of the other will I then be rendered null and inoperative. In I this case, who is to refund the suitors the mo- I ney which may have been advanced for no I beneficial purpose, and who can give a re compense for the dreadful state of anxiety and doubt which must be the necessary re sult of the present unsettled aspect of the judiciary system ? [National Journal. ~aoo — Steam-Boat Accident.—One of the safety cocks above the mouth of the furnace of the boiler in the steam boat Franklin, burst out on Monday soon after she left the wharf at Mount Pleasant, and Joseph Cherry, of this city, who was employed on board as boiler maker, being in the act of supply ing the fire with wood at the moment, was scalded so badiir, that he died next morning about one o’clock.

The Philadelphia Gazette says, “It is I estimated that there are 100,000 sheep in the single county of Washington, in this state, and that they last year yielded 400,000 lbs. ot wool.

An instance of the promptness with which the trench Court conducts its foreign policy, is stated in the London papers, which re- J mark that it was no sooner known with a degree of certainty that Sir Charles Stewart was to go over to Rio de Janeiro on a special 1 missiji, and intrusted also with the des patches of the King of Portugal, than a < minister extraordinary was appointed in 1 Paris, with the greatest secrecy, who actual ly arrived in the Bra/.ilian capital several days before Sir Charles reached it from Lisbon- [ Balt.

Gazette. Miss Kelly had 1900 dollars in the Park Theatre, New-York, on the night of the 21st ( ult. when she took her benefit. In an action of slander, in which a lady was 1 lain tiff, lately tried in the Supreme Court of Buckingham, Virginia, the Jury ' brought in a verdict of five thousand dollars damages. i The experiment of raising tobacco, tried ’ this year by several farmers in Ohio, has succeeded beyond their most sanguine ex pectation. It is stated in a London paper, that Wm. Washington, a nephew of Gen. George Washington, has proceeded from Hydra for Napoli di Romani, with the intention of entering into the service of the Greeks. The Governor of the State of New-York has appointed the twenty-fourth of Novem ber as a day of Thanksgiving in that State. The same day is to be observed for a like purpose by several of the New-England States. Letters from Lisbon ot August 13, repre sent the commerce of that place as in a deplorable state, and the political situation of the country in the worst condition ima ginable. Arrests and imprisonments were taking place daily for political offences One letter says, “a heavy storm is now gathering which must soon burst forth.” New-York Mer, Ado.
