June 6. 77. * 5?e.Tf Gubernatorial Flection, and other matters.—This subject we did not wish to become a matter of discussion, much less of angry recrimination. We for a season, indulged the gratifying expecta tion. that from returning good feeling and moderation through the State, a contest would have been avoided.—Indeed for a considerable time, they who with singleness of heart sought the welfare of the State and thought kindly and favorably of Duncan G. Campbell, notwithstanding the calumnies with which his friends had overwhelmed him. hoped that his own better judgment would have prevented his being made a forlorn hope, to a set of men, who had gone every length to ruin him. The die has, however, been cast, and our next wish was, that as the competitors had entered the arena, they should he left jn the hands of their fellow citizens, and let their unbiassed choice determine the issue. This was the course demauded by the in terest of the State and that respect due to the good sense and patriotism of our people. Deeply do we regret, a different one has teen pursued on any occasion. A few mischief making, interested med dlers, have determined it should be other- wiio. and are' sedulously engaged in the , pious and natriotic task of rekindling among • v us the all hateful spirit of political discord \Vhat rorul, what honest purpose is attain able by it? What end that a patriot can a', ow, or a good -man. reconcile to his con science ? We renly with confidence none.— The citizensof this State have now no point on which they are at issue. Whatever opinion thousands of honest and enlightened m«m entertained three or four years ago. of General Jackson’s claims to the Presidency, there is now no uncertainty that he will have the undivided support of Georgia in the ensuing contest. What matters it then to the interest of the General, to his friends, or the welfare of this State, that, at that period we and the majority of our people, preferred our own fellow-citizen, the venera ble and beloved Crawford, not merely to the General, but to every other competitor’— We have great freedom in avowing that General Jackson was neither our first choice nor our second.—M e candidly profess that with high admiration for his heroism and military talents, with due gratitude for his cervices, and with the firmest belief in the devotedness of his patriotism, we still had will be taken. If sufficient encouragement is given us, the Pamphlet we propose to publish, will be oul in a few weeks, and to the end, that we may know whether we can attempt it without loss, a subscrip tion will be opened at this Office, where, all who succeed, the thing wont blaze, notwithstand- river * The lives ot 150 workmen were en ing all their puffing.

Poor blossom! with radiance you might gild the thorn, And beauty’s curls you may per fuiue, but ne’er adorn.

And in saying this, we pay him a higher a worthier tribute than ma’iv of those who are brawling “ Old Hickory forever.” Not a few such are to be found who, ardently de voted to J. Q. Adams, and indifferent or hostile to Jackson, still brawl on “Old Hickory forever,’* finding it a passport to popularity. Candid and honourable men, in deciding on the conduct of others, if the matter fairly admit of a creditable explanation, and the contrary, usually adopt the former—men of an opposite character, as naturally give the hitter the preference. Almost every man m the State understands sufficiently well, how the change in favour of General Jackson has been effected. The truth of the matter we believe is this, almost a year of vexatious indignity and injury on the part of the pre sent administration toward Georgia, and many of their other measures, had alienated her from the President and his Cabinet, and the premature discussion of the Presidential question had, among other matters, render ed it almost certain there would be but two candidates, Andrew Jackson and John Q. Adams; between those two men, Georgia . cou'tj not hesitate in giving the former the preference. The General’s moderation pending the last election contest, the resig nation of his Senatorship and his strenuous recommendation to deprive the President of the power of corrupting tho National repre sentation by cutting off Members of Con gress from Executive appointments while their terra of service contipued, had also their influence. # This, we think, is a fair and tolerably correct tri?w c$ tno change which has taken ith great non-chalance, “ Try it again then.”—.Southern Recorder.

JOHN SILMAN, Junr. Adm’r.* July 13, 1827—28 4m Two men have lately been tried at Geneva, in this state, for passing bad money. This offence d d not come under the statute for counterfeiting, as the money was what is called cut money. It was composed of parts of different bank bills, from several of which a piece was taken so as to make six bills out of five. The device was an ingenious one, as the bills had the appearance of be- inir good, and were so in fact, with the ex ception of being an inch too short. Consi derable sums were passed to different mer chants, for .trifling articles, and the residue received in good money. The prisoners, however, were notsuffered to escape. They were arraigned and punished under the statute for “ obtaining goods under false pretences,” and sentenced each to three years imprisonment.—A*. It. States.

He has oftentimes, by his skill, enabled genUe4 men to go to the State Legislature, only on account of the prepossessing appearanee of their foreheads; and in one of the northern states, a gentleman who had before been k light-headed witling, and hardly had sense enough to keep out of a shower of rain, was, after undergoing a skilful operation of this kind, elected to Congress algpost with ac clamation.
