It appears that a certain distinguished military chief tain of “coon-killing” notoriety, has recently discover ed that Gen. Clinc h’s military services •ntititle him to no cmoderation or regard from the people of Georgia, —that his “military career was nothing,” that “he was forced into one buttle. and killed fifteen Indiana /” N'* Me may be allowed to intimate that it savors somewhat of presumption in a gentleman, whose indi te'y services have been confined to an equivocal r:m pu.gn aginst a class of varmints,” yclept ‘Georgia Coons,’ to venture an opinion in any case where gun powder hnshecn used, or is likely to be used, the ,nor 'i especially as he is rumored, on one or two occa sions, to have shown a most striking aversion to the villainous saltpetre.” Moreover, such nn expression of opinion by the aforesaid “coon-killer,” was the more bold, rush, nnd presumptuous from the feet, that it is flatly contradictory of the opinion once expressed hv Gen. Jackson upon the same subject, through his Secretary of \\ nr, Gen. Lewis Cass Now, there was a time when (den. Jackson had some military reputa tion in Georgia, anil When the people lmd considerable confidence in his judgment of military matters. But be hold, a greater than Jackson has arisen! # llf. rsciiel, the “coon-k Her,” is now the oracle upon military mat ters. Under such circumstances we almost despair of accomplishing any good, even by giving publicity to the written opinions of “Old Hickory”, in reference to Gen. Clinch and his services. However, as there are yet a few old fashioned patriots alive, we will venture to give the following letter, which shows thnt General Jai kson thought Old Withlncoochce sufficiently worthy of his confi l*nee nnd esteem, to tender him the chief command in the Florida war. Here is the document: War Department, May lf>, 1836. Sir —General Clinch has tendered his resignation, hut the President ts not willing to acc pt it, having con fidence in his experience and military capacity. You are at liberty to leave Florida nn 1 resn.tv the command .i yourdepa. t.nent, whenever you th k you can do so ■vuii a jii.-t regard to public interest. Yniw Utum over the command to Genera’ C inch. or. if h leaves the service, to the next officer in rank— irnis'ning such instructions as you shall think proper. Very respectfully your obedient servant. l;;wis cass. Major-General Sc >tt, St Augustine, Florida. Gon. Scott’s opinion of • >u. Clinch, Our military cotrmporary of the Savannah Georgian, seems recently to be following in the footsteps of the re doubtable “Coon-killer,” and to he speaking rather dis paragingly of Gen. Clinch's military reputation. We now tender him the following letter from Gen. Scott. We are not astonished that Col. Johnson should not appreciate the services of Gen. Clinch, ns that gen tleman belongs essentially to the Pillow school in mil ily affairs, and : s very apt to place the “ditch on the wrong side of the parapet hut that Col. Jackson should make such a mistake, is incomprehensible.— We admire his boldness, but cannot say as much of his judgment, when he ventures to place his military opin ions in the scale against those of his illustrious namesake, and his scarcely less illustrious recent Commander in Chief. W\v firmly believe that after reading the follow ing and after th** heat of party excitement shall have p ssed, he w ill feel that he has at least done great injus tice to one who has done good service for his country. The letter explains itself: “Knoxville, Tenn . September 6, 1837. “Dear General: —“Your letter of the 6th ult., has but just reached me, and I hasten to reply by the first mail. “ You ask me to state the length of time that I have known you, my opinions of your q edifications and ser vices as a commander, particularly in reference to the part you bore in the commencement of the present war with the Seminoles ; whether in the many conversa tions between us. in Florida, you did not often state the motives and reasons w’hich would compel you to re sign at the end of the campaign, in which we were then engaged, and w’hether those motives and reasons wore not considered by me tm amply sufficient. You con clude by saying that you may find it necessary to pub lish my reply in defence of your character against the attack oi your enemies. After an intimate acquaintance with him of more than twenty-eight years, and the persuasion that you have never sai l or done an act which could give offence to an honorable mail, I can hardly bring myself to fe lieve it necessary to reply to your inquiries, not having seen either of the attacks to which you allude. “To th** high character and value of your services, generally, and particularly in Florida, I have on innu merable private, and several public and solemn occa sions borne my humble, but hearty testimony. Thus in my report to Government, dated ‘Tampa Bay, April 12, 1836,’ I said of you:—‘H*\ throughout the march, commanded his column with judgment and ability, and at th*’ principal combat (in the cove.) bravely dismount ed and followed his troops above the knees (I ought to have said waist) in mud.’ In the report of May 11th, I said ‘the resignation of Brigadier General Clinch was torwarde 1 a week ago. The Army will lose in thisof fic r one of its l*est commanders ” So in my address to the Court of Inquiry at Frederick, Maryland, speak ing of my being ordered to supersede you in the com mand in Florida, against my private wishes, I told the Court that, I had moreover the highest confidence in the judgment and abilities of Gen. Clinch, independ ent of his better knowledge of Florida and of the ene my to be combatted. And again, upon the occasion of reading one of uiy letters, to the same Court, 1 rose and said. */ am now thoroughly persuaded that the decision of Gen Clinch (in sending to the block-house , an the. lYithlacoochce, succor from Fort Dranc) was correct, and in Jact, Mr. President, it is extremely difficult to diffei hi opinion from that officer in the field • without nf(awards finding reason ta suspect one's wlf in the wrong and so it happen'd to me in this ‘From tin time wc m -t at F. rt Drain- up to ur *vp* a tion at Tamp t Bay, your ret.r incut la civil w. * a frequent subject ot ccmveisatioii in ou- pnv >■ and confi fentitl intercourse.

Accordingly you took the opportunity of the termination of active duties for the season (early tn May) and sent your resignation, through me, to the War Department. / my opinion, yai were then per fectly at liberty to take that step, both m respect to honor nnd patriotism, and I have already said that your duties to yourself and family, independent of wounded pride, left you no other course in pursue “Wishing you all honor and happiness, my dear Gen eral, I remain youis, “Wim ii i.d Scott.’* Geu. Clinch in Flondit. It seem* thnt the unfair, uncandid and merciless as saults ol the Democratic press upon Gen. Clinch have aroused the indignation ol the people, mu on!y in Georgia but the neighboring Stales. It np|M arts that among full er distinguished cittaens who have felt outrag ‘d at tins treatment, an able and intelligent citizen of Tallahas see has seized his pen and thrown off the follow ing ar ticle which we copy from that excellent Whig paper, the Florida Sentinel. It is indeed a crying sun mo, that one who iaso highly appreciated a* Gon Clinch fe out of the State, should be so sadly maligned and abused by the very people for whose hmelit the greater poition of his valuable life has been spent. ” Gin. ( i.ini m —ln the p*n Img contest for Governor of Georgia I run les* surprized at the remon* Wm party malice which dogs the heels of tins virtuous and distin guished man, it tin 1 the apparent ignorance .J his Georgia tiiendsof interesting incidents in hislge, which, when known, are well calculated to elevate hmi in thr esti mation of on enlightened coimiiumty. “ It scents to Im* ut length known that, toon after the late war with F.ngland. t <>l. Clinch, with a detach ment ol Ins r-gin unit, fell upon a lutml of (les)M-rate bri gHini* and outlaws, nt their rendezvous on tie- Apaluch ic-dn River, in the Spanish l rovmee ol Florida, killed two or three hundred and dispersed the band; but it due* not in ein to be known that the enterprise was at tended with (Hher perils than the shot of die enemy j that Gen. Clinch acted under a hint from the War De partment; that the r spoiisihility he nraunir-d was ot n ddi-ate and serious nature; that the Fort taken and dismantled*, bring in the territory of a neutral, public notic * of the gallant uduevement wasfotbidden by rea sons of state policy, although highly approved and com mend* <1 hy Col Moime, who soon after received the conqueror at hi* ow n r sidence as an invited guest, and during the time Col Clinch waa domesticated in his family, treated him with the 1110*4 flattering respect and kindness, such as his rank would not have entitled him so, nor his previoua acquaintance with the President. “ The Athens Banner, and correspondent, “Coacoc die,’ vWdd Kitten,) in UMuioiiig the fact that thi:t**nds es Gen. Clinch rest his claims solely on the affair of W ithlncoochee, ore mistaken. I hear nothing now a days of a little interlude in the martial drama of that period, which was always a wel come topic among the friends of Col. Clinch, of both exeH, particularly the softer. On his way (probably for the purpose just mentioned.) from the Rea coaPt of Georgia to Regimental Head Quartern near the mouth of Flint River, attended by n small escort, he reached Ala pa ha, flowing, at that time, through an uninhabit ed wilderness. The party found the river swollen by heavy mins and swimming from shore to shore. The 1 affair in hand admitted of no delay or detention ; the passage of the liver on horse hack was proponed by the commander, who was the first to encounter the risk of his own suggeHiion, and his example being followed by the escort, the transit was effected in safely with one exception—the last of the party being swept from the saddle and Ifhrried down the impetuous stream. In this crisis how did the commander act ? Order the detach ment to the rescue? No! The lion-hearted young man impelled by his own generous impulses, leaped in to the angry current, and buffetting the waves with lus ty sinews, bore him to his comrades on shore —lt is the character evinced in this act that so endeared Gen. Cinch to the common soldier. “Is it bo soon forgotten, that when the Seminole Indi ans had surrounded the veteran Gaines and his fine ar my of young and rut off all retreat, for did ! the tidings never reach him of the “Banner” or his cro ny “Wild Kitten?”] that Clinch, with an ardor, anen ergy and judgment almost without a parallel in border warfare, and as I believe, contrary to the orders of the commanding General, levied men and supplies, advan ced by a rapid march to the position of the combatants, and relieved the command from the tomahawk of the enemy? If this be forgotten in Athens, Georgia, the friends of Gen. Clinch are consoled in the assurance thnt it is remembered by thousands of the sons and daughters of Louisiana. “ALAPAHA.” Mr. Towns’ Fiimnciit'.

What will be said of Mr Towns’ vote to resist the inquiry proposed? Was he faithful to his trust in so doing? And why did he op pose it l Was he fearful of the result of such enquiry ? We leave our readers to judge. “Mr. Hunt, from the select committee appointed to inquire whether any .and what, me mans of Congress, hen of Department, or other officers of the Govern ment. had obtained accommodations and facilities Jrom any bank or banks in obtaining the use of public 1 money for the purposes of speculation in vu! lie lands, suhfeiited a report, concluding with the Inflowing reso lutions *— Resolved, That the select committee appointed by this House on the 20th June, 1836,be increased to nine, and that the said committee have power to sit during the recess of this House. Resolved, That the said committee embrace, in thetr inquiries, any connexion between deposite hanks or others and the land officers, for the purpose of specu lation. Resolved, That the said committee inquire how far, and to whom, for speculation in public lands, the depos its banks have issued certificates of deposite, without 1 an actual deposite in cash, and to what extent they have i been received in payment for purchases of public lands 1 at the several land offices. Resolved, That said committee inquire how far, nnd to what extent, combinations in the purchase of the public lands have been formed, or are forming, suffi ciently strong, from interested motives, to control, to any extent, the legislative action of Congress. If Col Towns was perfectly free from all suspicion, why did he vote against the foregoing resolutions? The Wi I mot Proviso and the V>emocrary. The Washington Union fe in something of a contro versy with the New York Evening Post, in regard to Mr. Buchanan’s letter, and thus explains its real mean ; ig: 4 It s agreed between the Post nnd us, that Mr. Bu chanan in .advocating the application of the Missouri Compromise to the territory which we may acquire from Mexico, is in favor of prohibiting slavery in all of that territory which lies north of the line of 36° 30’ north 1 latitude, and of leaving the ichole question of the in troduction of slavery into the territory south of that line to the people who may choose to lire in the coun -1 try” Now, we would like to know what Southern man, what Georgian, ism favor of such a compromise as the above ? Do**9 it not clearly prove that we were correct last w*ek, in expressing the opinion that Mr. Buchan lan’sI an’s sole purpose waa to deceive and delude the South* 1 *nd that the Democrats of Georgia were about to com promise array the rights of our people ? Who would think for a moment of accepting such a compromise ? And yet, that is what Mr. Buchanan off*rs, accompa nied by the declaration, that slavery never can exist m Calefornia, because of the climate ; nor west of the Rio Grande, because there the “ negro is not a degraded race"— in other words, that Tamaulipas is, in plain En glish, free negro territory /-—and that, therefore slavery 1 cannot he established there under any circumstance*! Verily. M* Buchanan may well afford to abuse the letter ot tlie YVihnot Proviso, urtnle he and life friend* are thus cautious to preserve ii* spirit South* rn I>*m ; oems must be easily satisfied, if they can approve of such an adjudication of their rights and interests.

Oie of the returned volunteers, who fought under (general Taylor at Buena Vista, has furnished one of our exchanges with the following graphic and minute sketch of the general making-up of the old hero. It fe s> w* and done that a portrait might be painted from it: “The hero of Buena Vista, around whose military brow o many chaplets of fame have been thrown, pre sents in his personal appearance many of those striking stamps of nature, which mark the gentleman an 1 officer. Ofan average medium height—being about five feet and nine inches; he inclines to a heaviness of frame, and generally well- developed muscular outline, with some tendency to corpulency ; of square build, he now inclines to stoop ; and from the great equestrian exer cise the nature of his fife has led him necessarily to un dergo, his inferior extremities are somewhat bowed His expansive chest shows him capable of undergoing that vast fatigue through which he has passed amid the hammocks and savannahs of Florida, nnd the still more recent fields of Mexico. His face is expressive of great determination ; yet still so softened by the kindlier feel ings of the wul, as to render the perfect stranger prepos sessed in his behalf. His head is large, well developed in the anterior regions, and covered with a moderate quantity of hair, now tinged by the coloring pencil of time, which he wears parted on one side, nnd hruhed down. His eyebrows arc heavy, and extend over the optic orbit; the eye grey, full of fire, nnd expressive when his mental powers arc called into play, yet repos ing as if in pleasant quiet, when in ordinary. His nose is straight, neither partaking of the true Grecian or Ro man order; his lips thin, the upper firm, and the lower slightly projecting The out line of his face is oval, the skin wrinkled, and deeply embrowned by the many tropical riiur to which he has been exposed. His man ners are frank and social; and no one over left his com pany, without feeling he had been mingling with a gen tleman of the tme olden times. He at times appears in deep m ‘dilation, and fe then not always accessible In iife military discipline lie is firm, and expects ali orders emanating from his office tube rigidly enforced and ob served,—treating his mrn not as helots or slaves, but exercising only that command which fe necessary for die good of the whole. To the younger officers under him, he is peculiarly lenient,-—often treating their little faults more with n father’s forgiveness than with the judgment of a ruler. In his general toilet he does not imitate the B**au Brummelsand bandbox dandies of the present fashionable epoch, but apparels his per son in illusion with his age. and has no great predilec tion tor the uniform. In this, however, he is by no means peculiar, for a majority of our regular military gentleman seldom appear in their extern"!? on duty : and the stations to which General T y!or has been as signed have been in the warm and sunny South, ren dering the heavy blue cloth undr- s co t dmngrenble to ’ the physical feelings. I have generally seen him in a pair of grey trowsers, a dark vest, and * ither a brown or speckled frock coat, reaching lower than would suit the starched and prim bucks of modem ciivlization. He wears a long black silk neckerchief, the knot not look ing as if he had been torturing himself to arrange it be fore a full length mirror ; he sometimes wears a white hat, resembling in shape those used by our flatbontinen, and a pair of common soldier shoes, not much polished.” Something New about Peace. Tlie Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun. writing on the l’dth inst, has the following new revela tion in regard to the instructions of the Government to Mr Trist He says: ” Some weeks ago the State Department sent to Mr Trista new set of instructions, in regard to tile treaty with Mexico, changing the terms granted to the Mexi cans. It is well known that Mr. Trist, in his previous iiistruct-ons, was left without discretionary power He had the draft of a treaty—the ultimatum ol M- Ha citatum—with him, winen had to be ace-- ted to, or the negotiation must fail. Mr. Trist conl-l o ily take the propositions of the Mexican Government, if not ag.eemg with Ins own, ad referendum lor his superior in Washington. His new and last instructions were forwarded to Vera Cruz, with directions to be sent to him with all poa.ible despatch, and were captured hy the guerillas. Os this fact, of course, Mr. Trist is not informed, nor docs he know that new instructions are on the way for him. lie will, therefore, stick to the text of his former instructions; but as these, as I have good reason to believe, ore much more liberal to the Mexicans, and as the new instructions urge on him the necessity of asking and insisting on more, it is highly ‘probable that the Mexicans, knowing the less favorable disposition of our government towards them, and hav | ing no means of continuing the war, will use every means in their power to make peace on the old terms, before aseeondset of instructions may reach Mr. Trist.” A Word to the South-Wost. The people of South-western Georgia who are deep ly interested in the completion of a Railroad tn Macon are very properly looking to the next Legislature of the St-it- for pecuniary assistance They have paid largely i ofiheir means into the Treasury for the completion of State R,rail and are now submitting to heavy ta-ies on account of that great work which has thus far n.-v.-r hem-fitted them, directly, a single dollar. They are therefore looking, and they have a right to look, to the next Legislature for aid in the great work in which they are now so deeply interested. It becomes th<-m, there fore, in the pending election, to look well to the poaiti-ui of the Candidates for Governor. Col Towns is playing a deep game for a certain vote in Cherokee, and it is now pretty well ascertained that he has committed himself, through his friends, against the extension of the State Road beyond its pr-ser.t terminus. It is even openly declared hy some of his most active advoenu-s in MuiTy county,that he will vetoaoif for the rom. pletion of the work. This, in the event of Col. Towns’ election forever cuts off all hope of procuring any aid for South western Georgia, because the other great in terests involved will not mnaent to the granti-.j of any I assistance unless the State Ro.id isc -mpl-t-d a, a ;rr-- liminary condition. Let that road be eo nplet ed to the Tennessee River, and the increased income, would more than pay the interest upon any amount which the State would invest in the Booth-Weutem Road. Col. Towns, however, at loasi through his friends, has taken his position against South-western Georgia In order to gain a few vote* in the extreme comer ofCherokee. he, it appears, is willing to sacrifice the moat important in - tercets of ihe State, the interests of his best friends, and those who have sustained !i He abandons all consi.l cratio tac nn rate I withih- tie and her future and per manent prosperity, and bin Islnmsell to the d-nlinies of a few foreign aperultor*. who for Belfis'i po poses, are seeking to check the progress of a great State and Na tional enterprize. Will the people of the Middle and South-western counties sustain any candidate whose view* and feeling* are 10 entirely opposed to th--great and permanent improvement of the State! Let Mr Towns he elected, entertaining the views which have been recently announced as hw, by his friends, and the progress of Georgia improvements will be clucked for years to come. The last hope of the South-west will have been blasted and hor lands which are now begin ning Income into market at advanced prices will decline front )to sri per cent in value The mailer at now in the hands oi th people, and it will lie ,|„.j r own fault if they allow |>arty (celling lo carry them against their own true interests and in favor of a candidate who, according to the statement ul his own frten-la, has already ennaemad to sacrifice them for his own promotion - Albany Courier.

The last ( entral Georgian says:—“ We learn from the farmers residing in different sections of this county that their prospects are extremely gloomy, for even a moderate crop of cotton. The army and bowl worm are destroying the greater portion of the small remain der left alter a profuse shedding of the bowl. In some parts of the county the worm has not made its appear nnc\ but a divase has taken hold upon the bowl which a equally a* bad if not worse than the worm.” Aluhnnm Cotton Crop. Me are indebted to a friend for the following state ment. It fe contained in a letter dated, Montgomery, Alabama, Sept. 18th: The Cotton crop in Alabama, will be much larger than was anticipated. Although the bolls on th** low* r branches were lost by the long continued ruin —the w’et’d looks finely, and is rapidly shewing its white i clothing. Some of the planters, 1 am informed, are picking two hundred pounds to i 1 hand p i diera. Ail concur in thinking that there will be more than half a crop,and with n tolerably late fall they will aave a good crop. All now depends on a late frost. Iron Moiintai • in iV\a, The Surveyor* who have been engaged in running th • boundary line of the German colony, have discov c !;■ mountain near the Conchos river that consists entirely of iron ore. A portion ol this ore has been smelted and yielded seventy per cent, of pure iron.— According to the representation of those wlio have vis ited this mountain, it rescmhleN the celebrated iron mountain of Missouri. It is not so large, being only four or five hundred feet high and probably Haifa mile in cir cumference. A range of hills extends several miles north of it, that appear to be c.mq*osed almost entirely of iron ore. It we can rely on the statements of the i hunters and surveyois who h ive visited that section, ihe iron mines that have been discovered there arc in exhaustible.—X O. limes.
