The Sheriff’s sales of Gilmer county have been taken from us, and are now published in the Mountain Signal, be- cause wc would not advertise them at TWENTY-FIVE CENTS A LEVY, while the law allowed us TWO DOL LARS AND A HALF. The Sheriff wrote us that he could get it done for 25 cents. We did not believe there was a paper in Georgia so bad off for adver tising as to take that; but we see that wo were slightly mistaken. We wish parties in Gilmer to recollect tbat when they pay S2,50 for advertising a levy that $2 25 goes into the Sheriff’s pocket, and 25 cents into the poor prin ter’s. This is giving shares about like we knew a man to do once, who allowed a poor nephew to raise a little patch of goober peas on a bit of worn out land, and when the crop was gathered it a- mounted to an half bushel and a peck The mean Uncle took the half bushel for rent, and put oflf the poor nephew with ihe peck. Our patrons will find that we publish the sales for their information, although we get nothing for it. We prefer this to accepting the generous offer of the Sheriff, which reminds us of the proposal of an old fellow to hire a man to fish for him. The man was going along by his house, when the old fellow hailed him : ** Look here, I want to hire you to fish for me.” " What’ll you give ?” I ** Well, I reckon, if you will furnish ,your own hooks and lines, and bait, and board yourself, I’ll give" you half you catch.” wise—I would like to hear from him s- gain, if he will be so good as to writo even a few lines; I am always glad to have iny friends with me, and object to none when I know they are not disposed to obtrude. I suppose this is answer enough to satisfy “ M.” as to my notion of matters and things. Last week was a busy week with the people of Calhoun generally, as the Su perior Court was in session. Judge Ir win presided with great dignity, and dis patched business with brevity, sagacity and prudence. The people of this flour ishing place give him great honor for his firmness and manly demeanor, while a- mongst as. There was quite a number of eminent lawyers in attendance, and many able addresses were delivered be fore the Court. Several days during the week there was the largest collection of people on the public square, overseen in Calhoun before. This place is rising in importance, and will continue to rise. Tho Grand Jury recommended, in their presentments, that the Inferior Court should lay an additional county Tux for poor school purposes, which will enable us to have some better schools in the county than we have had hereto fore. Our schools in town are still go- ! tion, sometimes better, and sometimes worse, until Saturday last, when she was supposed to be better than usual. On that day, taking her four little children, the eldest being about five years of age, she went to Potter’s Mill-pond, about three miles distant, and plunged them all in, intending to drown herself. For tunately, a young man by the name of Alfred Wilson, (who deserves a great deal of credit,) was fishing, at a consid erable distance, and was attracted by the cries of the children. He hastened to their assistance, arid heroically plung ed into the water, which was vere deep, and succeeded in saving the lives of two of the children, recovering the dead body of the third, and rescuing the unhappy woman. All attempts to find the body of the smallest child were fruitless ” • K. M e concur fully in the sentiments of both the above wrirers, in regard to an Asylum. The people of Georgia should CUl1 ” either determine to have no Lunatic As ylum, or one that will accommodate all that may bo sent to it. There is now in our streets a miserable lunatic, half na ked and in a most deplorable condition. He was brought here a month ago by his wife, who avered that she could do nothing with him, “five small children and one at the breast” to take care of. The Inferior Speeches of Messrs. Hillyer and Jackson of Ga. M e find the following telegraphic re port of remarks of Messrs. Hillyer and Jackson of this State, and others, on lGth ult., in the Biltimore American : Mr. Hillyer.—After stating that in the Union party of Georgia ihere was not to be found one free soiler, one Ab olitionist, one man for protection, oV one for internal improvements, but that all are for strict observance of the Con stitution and the sovereign rights of the Sta’es, he went on to vindicate its posi tion, and to show that it acted consist ently, anti that its members were actua ted by love of countrf. He then ad verted to the course pursued in Geor gia, consequent upon the admission of California, and the passing of the com promise measures, and read extracts from papers that are the organs of the State Rights party, published before the Geor gia Convention assembled, evincing a determination to re.-ist, and declaring the dissolution of the Union as a consum mation devoutly to be hoped for. He expressed himself in favor of the Union party joining the Democratic par- iy, and sending a delegate to the conven tion of Georgia. He reviewed the state of parties in Europe; declared the in stitution of slavery to be perfectly se cure ; and said there must be somethin" wrong in Massachusetts, when they had to pass a law in favor of the marriage of white men with colored women. In the course of his remarks, Mr. Hillyer said the Union Party cannot act wi'h the Whigs. There was the Wbi" gentleman from Massachusetts, who vo ted in the Legislature of that State for a noldsville.’ / (S' Nelson Gilreath, Esq., has been appointed agent of the W. & A- R.

The citizens are still building pretty largely, and will continue to do so as fast as lumber can be obtained. We expect soon to have a very large briuk depot built, which will contain several thousand bushels of grain, together with all other matter to be shipped ; I fear, however, that it will not be large enough, for this is a great shipping point. I have not been very far into the coun try from town yet, but I learn that the land is very good, which necessarily must build up this place in a few years. It is true tbat the location of Calhoun is not as desirable as some might wish, as there is a considerable bill between the town and stm rise ; yet, notwithstand ing, this isolated objection, I am per fectly delighted with the appearance and prospect of the place. We are situated within a few miles of the centre of the road from Atlanta and Chattanooga, and can therefore soon be supplied with dry-goods, groceries, &c. from below, or bacon, lard, corn, wheat, &c , from above. A gentleman who ar rived here a few days since from Wash ington City, D. C. said tbat he had seen no place improving so fast as CalhouD. This is more than I anticipated. Court met, and decided upon his case, ing on ne y, except one of the female and be was despatched to the Asylum. He was left there by the fellow that car ried him, and was thus out of the way. But in a few days he was sent back up on us, looking worse than when he left.

[Laughter. Mr. Duncan ot Mass The Spiritual Knockings Sci entifically Explained. We ask the serious attention of our readers to the f Mowing lucid explana tion of the great Spiritual Rappirtgs, so much talked of these days, which wc find in the Chronicle §■ Sentinel: That the mysterious and wonderful knocking? and rapping? of the “spirits” at Rochester and elsewhere would some day be explained, we never had the least doubt; but we did not dare to hope that the elucidation and clearing up would come so soon. In these progressive times, however, science seems to be shod with the “ nine league boots” of the fairy talc, and the gigantic strides of her votaries, fills us with emotions in which awe, wonder, and astonishment arc so intimately conglomerated and “ mixed up,” that we can hardly tell “ which from t’other or t’other from which!” Of the laborious and difficult process by which the scientific correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial arrived at the following conclusions, we can say noth ing; but the precision, elegance and lu- lidity of the explanation must make it self obvious to the “ meanest capacity.” In allusion to the tappings, this profound philosopher beautifully observes: “The only true and legitimate man ner of accounting for the taps, is the physiological defects of the membrane ous sys’ein. The obtuseness of the ab dominal indicator causes the cartilagi nous compressor to coagulate into the diaphragm, and depresses the duodenum into the flandango. Now if the taps were caused by the vocation of the elec tricity from the extremities, the tympa num would also dissolve into spiritual sinctunt, and the olfactory ossifieator would ferment and become identical wi'h the pigmentum. Now this is not the ease; in order to produce tho taps, the spiritual rotundunt must be elevated down to the spiritual spero. But, as I said before, tho inferior ligaments must not subtend over the digitorum sufficient ly to disorganize the stericletum.” A friend of ours, who graduated “with distinguished honors” at one of the purchased the International Magazine | rants shall be located on the lands which- of Messrs.

Washington, March 20. Genl. Cass has explained at length his Nicholson letter, and vindicated it front the strictures of Col. Jefferson Davis, who, in a letter recently publish ed, puts upon the Nicholson letter a construction which Genl Cass does not assent to. V hen the Nicholson letter appeared Mr Calhoun and Mr Rhett took widely different views of it. Mr. Calhoun put a construction upon it of a character unfavorable to the South. Mr. Iihett, as I have understood, took anoth er view of the meaning of the letter, and it is evident that South Carolina had al so, for she gave her vote to Genl. Cass. The Nicholson letter is capable of two constructions, but it is now quite certain that Gen. Cass is to be understood as ta king such ground as will be approved by the South. Gen. Cass is now the leading candi date of the democratic party, as every one here admits. He will undoubtedly have a majority on the first babot; but it is not a ques- ;7i'"’n"^!iiiJ£iher9io two-thirds rule is to be 3: ' •; ‘ f “3? v* permanent rule attue* laS’^BaiihnSftr Convention, and must be rescinded, if not applied.

The bill for the purpose provides for a superintendent of public printing; term of four years sal ary S3 000 per annum ; surety bonds S10.000 ; must be a practical printer ; appointed by the President and Senate, and removeable by the President or joint re>-olution of both Houses of Congress.
