Gurney's Steam Coach.—This beautiful spe-
ciroenof mechanical invention apponrsat length
to bn brought to n state of perfection, beyond
which we hardly think it possible to make anv
essential improvement. \\ e had an opportu
nity of witnessing the operation of this machine
on Wednesday last, through the tlhany road,
and tbo streets adjaceru to the Kcgcnt'a Park;
and tve should say its progress could not have
been less than at the.rate df 12 miles per hour;
and in some parts of the road, where the rain
had not rendered thn gravel extremely heavy,
the speed of tbo carriage could not have been
loss than 14 miles tin hour. It appears to us
that the ingenious inventor has at length van
quished all the obstacles, both with regard to
inaattaining a uniform speed, at discretion, <>t
at least ten or eleven miles an hour; and, from
having lltc centre of gravity bdotv thn hori
zontal line of the axles, the risk of overturning
seems to he entirely obviated. W e under

The following letter was written in 1 SI4, to
Roimparte, after his abdication, bv one of the
Ministers of State, twenty-four hours before
he left Paris for Elba.
“ Sire:—Permit me to observe to you that
it will bo more glorious, and more consoling
for you to live in the character of a private in

individual like yourself, is the United States
of America; there, you will re-c.oinmencoyour
existence in the midst of a nation, still in its
youth, and whichcan admire your genius, with
out standing in dread of its effects—you will

Wesleyan Magazine states that sixty years I you would have preferred their virtues nnd
atm there were about forty thousand Gipsies in their liberty to all the sovereignties on enrtli
England; and that now there are probably
more than double that number.
Indeed, says the writer, I should be inclined
in cull them above one hundred thousand, and
nil these necessarily living by moans of fraud
theft robbery, or some tererios of crime and
imposture. I sav, necessarily, because, what
ever their dispositions may lie. they have nr-

to support existence. Fur such is the preju

born under the cruel doom of perdition. En

vage, compared with t hut of our gipsies.
It is a curious fact for which I pledge my
self, that a tribute precisely the same ns wnsl is m the rumor,

—
Wo perceive by our late northern papers that tho
Legislature of the state of New York has nearly com
pleted the passage oi lier new code of laws, which has
been for the last three years under preparation. This
perhaps is one of the most momentous experiments
which has been projected inthis country since the days
ot the revolution. In the formation of the instrument
of our federal compact, and of our several state consti
tutions, the magna carta of the mother country was al
ways revertedto as a basis—the old land-inQrks of Bri-
tis privileges were retained—a reformation of abuses,
and an adaptation of that instrument to the new order of
tilings in this country, were the only objects aimed at.
English authority in general was good law, and the
statutes of Great Britain were the fundamental rules of
the land, where our own did not supervene. But since
those days wc have become a great people; our civil
institutions and general habits, and consequently our
laws, have become every day more dissimilar; and our
statute hooka have prow n almost innumerable. Many
of the statutes have been repealed, or become a dead
letter in consequence of the adoption of others of a
later date; and some have been suffered to pass quietly
away in the progress of refinement.* In addition to
these ponderous tomes of statutes, in operation or oh*
solute, some of the constitutions of the states still re
tain the clause, that the British statutes shall apply to
cases where Gur own will not. In this mass of jurispru
dence there is a most * glorious uncertainly, y to say
nothing of the tirwand midnight oil wusted by the stu
dent in pouring it over, and the numerous expounders
who have written on it. The Legislature of New York
have therefore wisely determined to attempt to reduce
this mass to a consistent code, based upon a few first
principles, and built up of the solid materials of the sim
ple elements of law. All law we know is built upon
genera! principles, but how far general principles can
be made to apply to peculiar rases remains for experi
ence to test. The code of Napoleon, somewhat analo
gous, 1ms no doubt been of great good to the French
nation, otherwise the present dynasty would before this
time have abrogated it.—Our institutions, out laws,
our habits and our society, arc nli, however, different
from those of France; ar.d thr.vfnre what maybe well
adapted for that nation may but illy suit us. It is also
said hy those opposed to a codification, that the books
of exposition on the Napoleon code are already nearly
as numerous as the standard English commentaries,
and are annually increasing. Be this as it may, the at
tempt is worthy the great and enlightened state of New
Yorf{, and should she succeed, she will accomplish a
work vastly superior in intellectual achievement, and
equally great in a national point of view, with the
grand water communications through her state.
Ifl our last we made a few cursory remarks to draw tho
attention of our fellow citizens to thecuithation of the
Sugar Cane and other productions, to which wc think
our climate adapted. In eorroboiati'.n of our state
ment we have this week selected, from papers which
came to iiand since our last publication, such para
graphs as related to the subject, and which wc deem fully
conclusive to warrant the trial we then suggested. We
give them without further comment.
By inserting the follow ing ror r .v:.i alien fre^

the
Sugar.—Our worthy and esteemed fellow citizen,
John Williams, Esq. left at our office, on Fiidny last, a
sugar cane, selected at random fiom about one acre
which ho has now growing on his plantation, on the
Oconee, a lew miles below Millmigeville. It is about
•U feet long. Of tho 1C joint?, 10 are now rip**, men-
_ suring about 3 feet. The cane is 5] inches in circmn-
) ference, in the thickest part. This is rtrtnii.lv a very
j favorable evidence of what may be done, in cultivating
the cane even in Baldwin county.
Mr. \\ illiaum informs us that this is the fwiinb year
he has been making experiments in this culture, and
that he finds no difficulty in taking care of the crop. It
is as easily cultivated as the common corn crop, lie has
not made sugar yej, but designs soon :o do so.— Gco.
Journal.
Sugar Cone.—Wc have received from the plantation
of Gen. D. Tatloh, of Btrkc county, two stalks of the
kind culled Ribbon Cane, which hear a line, healthy,
and prolific appearance,and consequently leave nodouht
of the genial and propitious nature of the .soil of this
State, to the growth of this valuable production, which
wo trust wiftere long become one of the staple articles
of produce and trade. We understand that Gen. Tay
lor has fifteen acres planted thia year, and that he in
tends turning his attention to it ina considerable de
gree, next season. One of the 3tnlks wc have, has 17
joints, and the other 1C. They may be scon at our of
fice by any one w ho wishes to examine them.—Jug.
Chronicle.
Tho next extfact is a communication to the Editor
of the Charleston Courier:
Mr. VVillington.—As other parts of the V. States nre
making exhibitions of their Sugar Cane, I send you a
Specimen of what tnay he produced in South Carolina.,
Five years’experience has satisfied me of the practica
bility of maintaining its production through tho severest
cold of our climate, ami of ripening six joints for Sugar,
four for Treacle, and four for Plants.
N. B. It has yet a fortnight to grow, and stands a
frost that will kill Indian Corn.
The following is from some editorial remarks of the
Newborn Sentinel, printed at Ncwbcrn, North Caro
lina:
Wc are glad to learn that a few* of our planters have
seriously commenced the rearing of a vineyard. W*
could mention several within our knowledge, who |iav»
planted each several thousand vines. One gentleman,
in particular, in this county, lias put forty acres
vines. T*3 making of the Seiippernong wine has for
years been proved an easy and profitable business.
Two gentlemen of our acquaintance are, this season,
making experiments with the sugar cane, the result of
which wc shall bo hanpv to communicate to our ren
ders ; and two others nave actually pioducod Die Spa
nish Tobacco. Ours is n c!im?it« capable of tho most
diversified products, and this tact ought to he, and wo
hope will be improved.
Even as far north as Baltimore we find the Sugar
Cano has been cultivated with success. The following
iu from tho Baltimore IVtribt of the 26th ult.
*fl Curiosity.—A stalk of the Ribbon Sugar Cane
grown on the Farm of Philip E. Thomas, in the vicinity
of Baltimore, may be scon at the office of the American
Farmer. The stalk is not full grown, but it is suffi
ciently so to assure us of the important fact, that it may
he successfully cultivated much farther north than has
generally supposed. Indeed, when wc consider
that this specimen was plant* J at least n fortnight too
late, and has been cut early, (before wc have any indi
nt ion of frost,) and that it is now about six feet high,
f would not be verv extravagant to say, that it inay be
nltivatci! in Maryland—r-peeiallv on the Eastern
Ihore, and the low* r Counties of the Western Shore.
