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.

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

General, but to every other competitor’—

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. #

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.
