live while in the service. The lady loves with ardor, and has been regularly spliced to the ob ject of her affections—having left all to follow him to his northern home! I Santa Anna’s Hacienda.— An extract i from a letter dated Puebla, and published in the Muscogee Democrat, states that “the Georgia . Regiment completely stripped the private resi- ‘ f dence of Santa Anna of every valuable it con- ; tained and that Gen, Scott had sent them word that if he could catch them he would hang every one of them,” &c. We take pleasure in stating, on the authority of several respectablo gentlemen connected with the regiment, and who accompanied it on its countermarch from Jalapa to Vera Cruz, that the above report is wholly unfounded in 1 sacs, and does great injustice to both the officers i and men of the Regiment. The damage was i all done before the Georgians reached the Ha cienda, and was either the work of the Mexi cans themselves, or, of the other volunteers ‘ who were in the advance. That the property I • was greatly damaged is true, but the Georgians j had no participation in the affair. Journal <s• Messenger. There is a slight mistake in the above, from the ‘ ‘ Messenger.’ The writer did not say that the Geor- j gia. Regiment did perpetrate the outrage, but merely.J that such was the current report at l’nebla, avowing at the same time his belief that it was false. We are glad to learn that his belief was correct, and he will rejoice in its confirmation. Gen. Taylor. —The N. O. ‘ Delta ’ of the 2d inst. says : A gentleman who recently arrived here from Mon terey, had an interview with Gen. Taylor immediate ly before he left. The General told him it was not \ his intention to advance on San Lnis Potosi, but that it was his fixed determination to resign his command on the Ist of Sept. next. If this be true, we shall soon have it in our power, probably, to make known the politicalj views of the General, which arc now so much j in doubt among politicians. But wc cannot say wc like the idea of Old Zach giving up his com- | maud by the Ist Sept. True, he might as well j come home as stay where he is, in “masterly inactivity,” (for he does nothing in any other way j than masterly,) but we had much rather hear of his being promptly reinforced and pushing on to the capital of Mexico via San Luis Potosi. Things are in rather a critical situation, in the interior, to allow of Gen. Taylor’s return, just yet. Besides that, the prestige of his great name is still wanted to keep down such pot-val-1 liant heroes as Urrea and Canales on the west! of the Rio Grande. We hope, therefore, if Gen. Taylor docs resign within 60 days, that, previous to that time, the war will have been brought to a close and a permanent peace secured. Later. —Four days later from CJen’l Taylor ] gives the information that Old Zach had changed i his mind, as to resigning his command on the Ist Sept., and that he. expected soon to lie rein forced sufficiency to march on San Luis Potosi. much about the state of political affairs over the river—the thing is so mixed up. In Russell county, all the candidates for State Senate but Abercrombie and Holland, have, wc : understand, conic down, which will doubtless result in the election of the Captain over the Col. Both of these gentlemen are Whigs, but there is considerable diffeionce in the stripe. Our friends Baker (W.) and Moffatt. (D.) will probably succeed for tlie Lower House. : ‘Phat would be a sort o compromise which would be pleasant to behold ! In Bowdon’s Congressional District, Rice is making tho fur fly considerably. There are three candidates in the fiejd, which makes it du bious whether Rice or Bowdon will succeed. A Valuable Recife.—The following method hy which ■ “ Much honor, Picked from the chuff and mill of the time-, To lie netc varnished,” may be made to look as bright and unsullied as a “ pewter dollar in amud-lmle ” on a moon-lit night, is positively the latest and most approved stylo of doing up such matters. First.—Select out your opponent from the higher walks of life, and set a watch to discover a “ damna ble inuendo” or “soft impeachment,” about which it will do to chop logic. Then send off a private mes senger with a private note, to a point 100 miles oil! demanding an explanation of the insuiting insinuation or its immediate retraction. Receive a reply not al together satisfactory, hut sufficient to keep tip the correspondence for a week or two. In the mean time select your Surgeon and a friend or two—to act as private Secretary, Attendant, &c. Borrow, myste riously, three jiair of hair-trigger pistols—one rifle and the necessary appurtenances—and repair to the negro grave yard or the river hank, duly and daily, for the purpose of practice at target shooting, at a half inch tape line. ‘Take off your coat and go to work like a man. Keep firing at the said tape-line until you can cut the same 13 times out of Id. Give the wink to your aids to take due notice of your skill and of the Certainty of death to any man who v ill dare’to stand before you in a duel, with the caution to them, however, not to toll this to every body. When you have exercised the nerves of your right, arm sufficient ly after this fashion, then find a pretext for breaking off the correspondence, abruptly, and send a formal challenge to your antagonist. On the supposition that he accepts, take stage for the future scene of op-’ erations, and be ready for any emergency. If it should i happen that your antagonist selects the rifle for his weapon at 30 paces, instead of the pistol at 10 paces. ! why all you have to do, is to suggest the propriety of re-opening the correspondence and referring the same to a hoard of honorable men for their decision. This | will probably be acceded to, as few men really like to go into hostile combat, especially about a trifle, unless forced into it. Accordingly, the board of honor will take a private room, at Milledgcville, or other conven ient place, duly ponder upon the “dots” and “ points” involved in the correspondence, and in due season, make a report after the following pattern “ Card “We the undersigned, In whom was referred tile whole correspondence, between Messrs.

The Boston ‘ Times ’ sugges ted that the “ Sheet Iron Band” be called out to plaj the “ Rogue’s March ” after all such mourn ers, until they should be driven to their holes. I So infamous a proposition to insult the Chief! Magistrate, we are glad to see, met with no “aid j or comfort ” from the citizens of Boston. I LL D.—The Boston ‘Star’ thinks there is ! no doubt but that Harvard University will confer the degree of Doctor of Laws on President Polk, !on his visit to that Institution. The same honor ! has been conferred on Henry Clay, Andrew Jackson and oilier Presidents. I olly.— The Dublin Horticultural Society ! has offered a reward of 810,000 for a blue Dab , lia. That same 10,000 might be as well ex pended in buying po'utoes for the starving thou j sands of Ireland, within sight of the halls of that Institution.

Official Abuses.—rA correspondent enquires | why it is that our county Jail is now guarded by i a platoon of men, at a great expense to the tax j payers 1 The necessity for such a guard is not ; apparent when it is known that Butler is con* i fined in chains, in the dungeon ; nor was it the j custom in the days of Doper and other Jailors to have such a guard detailed to assist that officer in the discharge of his duty. We know nothing of the nature of the com-] plaint that i? thus made to us, but have heard it i whispered that the Guard is necessary, not only to keep an eye on the Jailor, who is himself a ; prisoner “on the limits,” but to guard the Jail during the hours ol relaxation which this gentle. ; man is accustomed to take at “ Barneys” between sunset and sunrise! Official Insolence. —The Post Master at Talbolloii has again placed us under profound obligation to him, fur the very courteous nian ; tier in which lie has given us notice of the fail, tire of one of our subscribers to take his paper I outijfijJiat office. Instead of assigning a reason il he Knows any, according to his instructions, he indulges in the supposition , that the subscri bert“does not set a very high estimate on the paper—no accounting for tastes.” However, we could hardly expect any greater civility from this P.

Presentment. —We are glad to see that the 2d Panel of the Grand Jury of Muscogee county have presented crazy Reed as a nuisance. lie was not long since in Griffin, where lie made a violent assault upon an unoffending citizen. He had better bo sent to the Insane Asylum, before someone knocks him in the head with a brick bat !

Generals Taylor and Scott. —The New Orleans National says that the difference be tween the popularity of Gen. Taylor and Gen. Scott may be seen clearly illustrated in the feel ings expressed by the volunteers. If you abuse i Gen. Scott, they will arguo in lib defence—if you abuse Gen. Taylor, they will turn in and whip you. ® [1 (TCQ (D © M TT □ How these Whig Editors love each other !— | J. J. Hooper, Esq., Editor of the Alabama Jour nal, thus speaks of his brother of the Selma Re porter : “ The author of this attack, by inuendo, ] upon my character, is J. L. Chapman—a libel lous scoundrel, who, secure in his priestly gar ments from the horse-whippings to which other calumniators are liable, traduces every one with whom he has any disagreement.” Wonder if ‘Suggs’ would have been so plain-spoken, if it had not been for those same ‘priestly garments’l He may find out, however, that Chapman is one of the Parson Brownlow breed of game cocks,; before he is done with him. Keep cool, Mes sieurs, and ‘do not let your angry passions rise.’ Fannin Avengers. —A public dinner was given to this company, at Griffin, on Saturday ; last, at which Col. Jackson was present and : made a brilliant speech. Three thousand stran gers attended from the country. The “Jefferso nian ” speaks of one alloy to the festive scene.

Ev cry heart asked, 4 where are the others?’ Mrs. Myers’ Example. —lt is stated in the | Alabama Journal that the conduct of Mrs. Win. i ston, whose guilty intimacy with Dr. Perrv of Sumter county, Ala. led to the death of Ae latter, was, in a great degree, *<tributnMe ivffu ence produced on her mind by the reading of] Mrs. Myers’ letters to lloyt. She, 100, wished ■ to write letters which should be circulated, read - and admired. The N. \. Herald has given one ] of Perry’s letter to her. Painful Accident at Montgomery.—An! accident took place at the State Capitol cm Sat-1 urdny last, which resulted in the death of two j persons—Mr. Glenls and Mr. McCrary. It was ] occasioned by the falling in of a part of the edi- ] fice from under which two out of throe temporary props had been removed, to lay the floor, and put up the iron columns. The accident, it is said, no way involves the character of the edifice for durability or excellence, but of that the building committee will make a report, shortly. Next Legislature. Messrs. Editors :—What is the Democracy of Muscogee doing about bringing out candidates for the next Legislature? Are we to suflir the Whigs to walk over the course without opposi tion ? If not, it is high time that our candidates were in the field.

All orders from the country promptly at tended to. Columbus, July 8,1817. 27 3m Presentments of the Second panel of the Grand Jury of Muscogee Su perior Court, May Term, 1817. THE Jury have, since its attendance upon this Court, been diligent in the perl--nuance ties which they have considered incumbent to discharge. Upon reviewing the Presentments ot the panel which lias immediately preceded us, we must beg leave respectfully to difier with that body ’n their report of the general good order and condition of the Roads ami Bridges. Wo have sought and ob tained information from several highly respectable sources, that they arc generally in a very had condi tion, so much so as to he highly discreditable to the county, the stage-road leading from this to Bartles ville, particularly, a large portion of which, we are informed, has not been worke don in five years. By reference to the law, we observe there are three par ties concerned in this matter; the first is the Interior Court. We therefore earnestly call upon that body to see that the officers under them faithfully discharge their duties, or the penalties of the law rigidly enforc ed against them. In relation to the poof children, to which the Court with much solicitude directed our nttentimi. we re gret not being able to report any additional informa- i tion to that submitted by the first panel, and slid inure do we regret the necessity of again bringing to the notice of the public, the almost total neglect ol a high ly important duty devolving upon the Justices of the several districts in the county, in failing to make re turns of the poor children. We believe it to be the duty of the Inferior Court under the Statute of 1813, to require the said Justices to make their returns at least once a year. Out of nine districts, only one, the 678th, lias been returned. This Jury most heartily unite with the first panel in recommending the purchase of a Farm, and the erection of a Poor House thereon, which we cgnfi-; dently believe would very soon greatly lessen the bur then of tax for that purpose, and if kept uuder proper superintendence, great benefits would undoubtedly re sult from the same. We cannot overlook the shameful condition of the Court House, and the neglect of the trees planted in the yard. We do hope the proper authorities will take the necessary steps to remedy this continuous cause of complaint. We would respectfully call the attention of the next Legislature to the law relating to white persons gam- bling with slaves, and request them to so amend the ] s ame as to make the offence of gambling with a ; slave of equal magnitude in point of crime and pun ishment to that of gambling with “slaves.” We feel it our duly to direct the attention of the proper tribunal to a certain individual that has been j roving about onr streets for two or three years past, known as “ crazy Reed.” He was for some time con sidered harmless, but recently has not only become , dangerous but a great nuisance. Wc earnestly hope the Court will not omit to en force the law, to the utmost extent, against the de faulting Grand Jurors, as the duty of serving as Tabs-’ men frequently falls upon individuals tor several | Courts in succession. , In closing our labors, we beg leave to tender to his : I Honor, Judge Alexander, our profound respect for ] the ability and impartial hianner in which he has dis : charged tho duties incumbent upon him during the ; j present Term. We also take great pleasure in x ---| tending our thanks to Solicitor General Campiikll, so ; his able and efficient duties, and bis polite attention 1 to this body. THOMAS RAGLAND. Foreman. ! \f in.

The Vegetable Restorative, OK LIQUID CATHARTIC. THIS Medicine is agreeable to take and ope rates without griping or debilitating. It is highly corrective and alterative in its effects, producing consistent evacuations and thereby leaving the bowels in a natural and good condition; and be cause of this property in its combination, it does not wear out like other cathartics, particularly such as the most of Pills, many of which invariably produce co pious and watery discharges, and leave the bowels in a constipated state. Nut so with this Medicine—it isn natural remedy,nciin? with nature, aiding, not forcing: her in the performance of her functions—•lienee for INDIGESTION or DYSPEP SIA, it is highly valuable. It can he taken, with perfect safety, by the most delicate and enfeebled, persons, chil dren, or others. On account of its mildness, convenience, und efficacy,it is destined to become, in public estimation, what it has proved to he in private practice, a FAMILY or DOMESTIC MEDICINE., suited to nil derangements of the Stomach, und valuable whenever n Cathartic or Ape rient is needed. O 3 Persons who have long been compelled to take Pill*, Oil*, or Sails, will find in this a pleasant and highly valu able substitute. It is not intended ns a remedy for all diseases that Flesh is heir to-—but particularly tor I.TVER, and STOMACH DERANGEMENTS, which may he. known by some or all of the following symptoms:— WnniofApjte.lite, Heart Burn , Cortivcnex*i Flatulence, Colic , Oppression at the Stomach., Distention of the Stom ach, -particularly after taking a small quantity #f , \ Restlessness at night, clay colored ecncuntiowS from the Bowels , countenance of a dull white, or hitr.
