M TH I B i N F e ASHION IN offering tho services of the steamer FASHION, (the first boat of this line) to the merchants of Georgia and Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee, we would ask for her that patronage which her construction and light draught of water merits. The Fashion is a home enterprise and owned ex clusively by Capt T. N. Philpot (her commander) and myself, whose entire attention will be given to the interest of her patrons. This boat was built in this city, and great care has been taken in her construction to make her worthy of the trade for which she is intended. Her capacity is about 2000 bales Cotton, her draught es water only 13 inches, which will enable her at all seasons of the year, to deliver her freight promptly. Her ontiro cargo will be taken between docks, which will not only provent damage to goods in case of snagging, but will add much to the condi tion of packages discharged from her. Mr. M. A. Cohen is the agent of this line in Savannah, where suitable wharves and warehouse have been provi ded in a central situation for the reception of Cot ton, Merchandize, Ac. Tho Fashion will run in connection with the New York and Philadelphia steamship, polivering goods at this point in five days from either of those cities. JOHN A. MOORE. JUST RECEIVED.

Mr. Dix's Letter, 1853. Ist That I am not and never have been an abolitionist in any sense of that term. On the Contrary, I have been an opeu" and uniform op ponent of all abolition movements in this state, and elsewhere, since they commenced in 1835, to the present time. — While in the Senate of the United States I op posed the extension of slavery to hee territory —a question entirely dis tinct from the interfer ence with slavery where it already exists. In the latter case, I have stea dily opposed all external interference with it. 2d. That I have on all occasions, public and private, since the Fugi tive Slave Law pa??cd, declared mvsolf in favor of carrying it into execu tion in good faith, like every other law of tho land. 3d. That I was in fa vor of the union of the democracy of this sta'e, which was consummated in 1850, continued in 1851 on the basis of the Compromise Measures, and in 1852, on the basis of tho Baltimore Plat form. 4th. That I have,since tho Baltimore Conven tion, in Juno, 1852, re peatedly given my pub lic assent to its proceed- | ings and acquiesced in | its declarations, as an I adjustment of disturbing | questions, by which I ! was willing to abide.

RED and White Ciove, Lucerne, Herds, Blue, Simothy and Orchard Grass Seed, for sale wholesale or retail by WM. HAINES, B ®pt 23 Broad-street, Augusta, Geo, Mr. Stephens' speech on the annexation of Tex as. 1845. “Nor do I wish “to hoax” gentlemen from other sections upon this point, as some have inti mated. I am candid and frank in my acknowledg i rnent. This acquisition will give additional pow er to the southwestern section in tho national councils; and for this purpose I want it—not that I am desirous to see an extention of the “area of slavery,” as some gen tlemen have said its ef fect would be. I am no defender of slavery in the abstract. Liberty always had charms for me, and I would rejoice to see all the sons of Adam's family, in every land and clime, in the enjoyment of those rights which are set forth in our Declaration of In dependence as “natural and inalienable, ” if a stem necessity, bearing tie marks and impress of tho hand of the Crea tor himself, did not, in some cases,interpose and prevent. Such is the case with States whore slavory now exists. But I have NO WISH TO SEE IT EXTENDED TO OTHER COUN TRIES ; and if tho an nexation of Texas wore for the sole purpose of I extending slavery whero I it does not now, and I would not otherwise I exist, I SHOULD OP j POSE IT.
