Massey's Improved Colton Gins.
ri'X H E subscriber i now prepared to manufacture a su-
I perior article of COTTON GINS, hnvi g procu
red materials ofihe liest quality and being supplied with
the best of workmen. Besides he is now making con
i sidcrnble nddit'on to his machinery, which will enable
him to furnish ns good gins, nnd on as reasonable
terms, ns any factory in the State.
| Ihe subscriber has the exclusive right of Sitnpon’n
l >nten E (for applying metalic rubber to drums, pulliea,
, olc.) f"r some fifty of the b*st cotton growing counties
in the State : which he intends applying to his gins
| when required. And it is certainly of grent advant
age tot‘ e cotton gin, for it not only requires one third
less power to propel it, w*here the metalic rubber is ap
plied, hut the gin. running geer, nnd every thing con
’ n-cted with it, will Inst ns much longer in pioportion.
I believe there ia no one of common sense but will ad-
I mit. that the lighter machinery of any kind can run
j the longer it will last.
It appears that a great tnanv persons prefer what is
j ca " e ” a water box, to nil such I would say, that it is not
worth one cent for the purpose recommended—that is
j t° prevent the gin from faking fire, forthis simple rea
son, a gin never takes fire rom the lw>x. but invariably
from the brush inside the gin, (when ittn* esfire at all.)
But ns every man hns his own notions, I will furnish n
box of my own invention (to nil who may require it,)
equal to the patent water box.
H—Gins sent to any part of the country, and in
everv case warranted to perforin well.
Letters addressed to the subscriber nt Macon, Ga.,
will receive prompt attention.

ARRIVAL OF THE CAMFIU A.

‘ind roiiclied Uouton oh the 30th tilt. By
McCay 4, CoV Bxprenn we were placed, on
riiursday last, in possession oPpajiera contain
ing tlie following intelligences
Ung'ii ml.
The Chartist demonstration, on the 12lh,
was considered a Inilure. It was completely
overawed by the military nnd police, wlm dis
persed it without difficulty before it could be
organized.
I’nero is but very little activity in cominer
; rial all,lira
Ihe cotton market was dull; sales confined
I to the trade. There laid been a slight decline
; in American descriptions, ami lair Uplands
were quoted ns low as Id. per pound.
There had been no change in the grain
m irkels. The weather in Great Britain bud
been excellent for the crops.
file state of trade in the manufacturing dis
tricts remains without chijige.
Tne London money inuiket was pretty firm
notwithstanding the “ wam and rumors of
wars” throughout Europe. Consols, on the
f tat Ii June, were 83 J for the account, but were
last quoted at 83{|.
The position an.l prospects of the West India
sugar planters had given rise to s-veral pub
lic meetings in England on the subject.
Ireland.
This country is more tranquil than it Ims
been since Mitchell's conviction. The frater
nization of Old and Young Ireland (the two
see:ions of the Repeal party ) bad been post
poned lur a lortnight John O'Connell had
protested against the abandonment o his
father’s phitlorm. of peaceful agitation. This
protest however, was not received with much
f ivor the physical three principle being up
p trmosl in the hearts of the people.
Hanover.
In Hanover the enlightened liberal minis
ter, Struve, seems mu it in the same predica
ment, and he will probably be compelled to
resign in consequence of the harrassing de
mands of the ultra-democratic party.
Italy.
Since the battle of CJoito. and the fall of
I’eschiera, no movement of a further decisive
1 character lias taken place in Lombardy. The
Piedmontese were preparing to occupy Isola
, della Scola. to cut or! the communications of
the Austrians between Verona and Mantua.
The Austrians seem confined to the neighbor-
I hood of Mantua, and are ravaging tile country
1 witerever they appear.
Naples.
We have little authentic intelligence from
Naples; the whole of Calabria seems still in
revolt.
Austria.
We learn that the Emperor of Austria
meditates a visit to Prague, with a view of at
taching to his person the Bohemian provinces.
The French, English Swedish and Belgian
ambassadors have reached Itmspruck and it is
supposed that the atidirs of Italy will there be
discussed. The hopes of the people of Aus
tria seem centered in the Archduke John who,
us the councellor of the Emperor, will be the
medium of communication between him and
Ins subjects.
Russia.
It is positively asserted that the Russians
have crossed the Pruth. on the frontier of Bes
sarabia, and that the Austrian minister. iS tur
ner at Constantinople, has in vain protested
, against this movement. It has been also re
ported on the London Exchange that a large
Russian force had entered Memel.
Spain.
There are reports iio a Spain that Narvaez
is about to retire from power, and that Gen.
O’Donnell and M. Mon will tbrni anew min
istry. It is said the Queen is cncienle.
Tlie Spanish Minister lias been dismissed
from Lou Jon, m return lor the ejectment of
the British Minister train Madrid.
Denmark.
The Danes have assumed the offensive and
at present no probability exists of a speedy
termination of hostilities. A strong Russian
squadron is hovering about the
coasts in the Baltic; and unless wiser coun
sels prevail in Germany we tear that the pres
ent partial eo itest in Schleswig will only be
the forerunner of greater und more serious
warfare.
Prussia.
, The Diet of Franklort seems to he occupi
ed with the adjustment of tiie Selavoruan
aflairs and the tormaiion of a Directory to
manage the ufl urs of Germany, until the dc
firintive establishment ol’ a supreme central
government in Germany, when its sovereign
functions will cease.
In Prussia affairs have come to q dead look.
In the Berlin Parliaiue.il a declaratory vote
of an abstract nature, whether the events of
the 18th und 18th of March had dethroned
the King arid originated anew constitutional
system being negatived by a small majority
ol’ nineteen, tile people of Berlin have again
j bee i thrown into a stale of tumult, whiclt ap
pears like to huve serious consequences. Tlie
! democrats of that capital are at direct issue
; with the court party; and unless the mob can
be brought to some reason an appeal will cer
tainly be made to the army, nnd a ('rightful
civil wur will be the result. M Arago the
new French Minister the Lyons Commissary,
seems to Iraleniise with tlie people; audio
the general excitement that prevails, this sort
of grupagadism can only add to the mischief.
France.
The appearance of Louis .Yi|x)lcou in the
Chamber of Deputies seems to have been the
occasion of much cxc tcmciil. The Royalists
do not slil despair, it seems,of re-establishing
their power, and hail fixed upon Louis N.i
----j poleo i who hud recently been chosen to the
House ot Deputies, us their new Emperor.—
Accordingly, lor several days cries of I’m
/’ liinprrtur, I are Xupoleim.a has ia l/ipuh
liyue, were common.
As soon us the Government had been up
prised of this movement, one hundred thousand
troops were concentrated hy its orders about
tiie capital. Disturb qiccs occurred nightly.
During one of the riois two thousand of the
dismderly persons were hemmed in mid taken
’ prisoners—among whom were English, Amer
icans, und even women.
Lamartine mounted the tribune, pale with
I excitement, and firmly demanded the restorit
ot tiie law ol 1833 (the net of expatriation)
against Louis Napoleon. While lie wus speiik
j mg, the eoufusiun increased. Tlie cries from
without of vive I’Empcreur, rose above the
dia, anil Lamartine took Ills soul overwhelm
ed with eunthrti'ig emotions. Itithrmniiou wits
received at this moment that a National
Guard had been shut. In referring tu it. lie
f clmgly remarked that this was tin first blood
shed la the cause ol'despotism, and not in that
of republican liberty.
A long nnd animated debaic ensued, in
which I’rmcc Na|Mileon cousin In Louie par
ticipated, and denounced the movement in
favor ol royally. Tlie motion of Lnnuirti ie
laiw* vef. was sustained and the pm|M>*ed de-
r fee sanctioned. I fespne of tin- decision, the
i rineutrrs declared that Louis Napoleon shall
rake Ins seat oa Tuesday next. The excite
ment continued. Resistance was threatened
and barricades attempted but the overwhelm
ing military there, nipped all ill the hud.
1 Da the tame day the Assembly revokrd
then decree, and admitted Lotus Napoleon to
a seat.
Du Wednesday l'aris was tranquil, and the
populace were waiting the arrival of Louis
-\a, 01. on Irani England, whence he hu inu
dressed a letter ta Ins fellow citiz -ns, in favo r
of peace, harmony, and the repub io. Presig
ny leader of the Boimpnrtists, hid been ar
rested ; which would promote returning con
-1 lence in the government to maintain them
selves and the republic.
In consequence of the grent political ugitu
tiou. six hundred commercial houses of Paris
had suspended.
At Amiens a proclamation had been issued
calling the people to arms to place Louis Na
poleon on the throne. Other parts of the
country, ns lar as heard from havi manifested
no predisposition to the movement.
We trust the crisis may have passed. Oae
report was. that Lcdru llollin and Lamurtinc
bad resigned, but later advices lead to the
belief that they would remain in the govern
ment.
MISCELLANEOUS.’
I'he Lite amt t baraetC’ ol General Zach
ary Taylor.
The presentation of the name of Gen. Tay
lor as a cai.did ite lor the high office of Presi
dent of the United States, and the most un
usual circuit stances attending his nomination
and its cordi.il acceptance hy so large a por
tion of the people, as a candidate free from
any of those ultra party pledges so usually ex
acted from competitors for lofty public posi
tions, render it equ ally interesting and im
portant to understand the whole inner frame
work and nature, the mind, the character, the
principles private and public, of a rna i whom
destiny seems already to have pointed out as
the next Chief Magistrate ofthe Republic.—
According to lus enetni s—that is. his polifi
c tl oppo le.its lor we doubt whether Zachary
Taylor has an enemy out of Mexico—the
study might he e spected to prove a hard one;
lor slander and ridicule have, already been
employed to represent tiie veteran —whose
life has been past ted in camps and who does
not hesitate to acknowledge a i equal igno
rance and disregar J lor the conventionalities,
and, so to speak, the technical Ibrais of poli
tics.-—as destitute of nil those principles it’
not all those faculties essential to the occu
pant ol the Presidential Chair, which it is the
ih sire to investigate and fully understand. —
I'liis notion however is an idle one. There
is no and ficiency ns there has been no conceal
ment, in regard to Ooueral Taylor’s princi
ples ; and the best, the tidiest, and the most
satisiactory exposition of them will be found
in the simple a irrati\re of his life. Ills qtmli- i
ties speak in his acts ; and his acts have been
always great ones: his spirit tbs in nd tils j
sentiments, both moral and political lus
whole character, are expressed, with a grand
lucidness, on w hat is now the recorded page
of his country’s history. It is for this reason
that we have thought it expedient, in discus
sing as we mean to do fully and freely, the
qualifications of General Taylor, and ins pe
culiar fitness to occupy worthily the chair once
so gloriously tilled by the fattier of his coun
try. to present our disquisitions iu the form ol
a series of sketches embracing a generul view
ofltis life stringing upon a thread of narration
such remarks and reflections, in illustration of
the subject as may be naturally suggested by
the dirt -rent events a they arise in his career.
The theme is a brave one. It open, scenes
of glory, upon which every American can
pomler with proud satisfaction ; and with none
tiie less approbatio t th ‘.t amid them all. the
chief and ruling actor in every scene is a plain
calm frank, unaffected, clear-headed kind
hearted American citizen who reconciles the
lofty in riis of the hero with the simple vir
tues of a true republican,
i General Zachary Taylor comes from a
sturdy and patriotic stock, worthy to uive u
President to the United States. His latuer. a
son ol’ the Ancient Dominion, a neighbor and
Ifiead ol Was'.ii lgto.i commanded one of the
Virginia regiments during tlie Revolutionary
war. through which lie Ibuglit with honor.—
Before the Revolution, however iu his early
youth, he hud proved Ins courage, and ia the
t.ue American spir.t of a Iventurc, by expir
ing the Ibrest mysteries of the great Missis
sippi Valley.—then a howling wilderness pas
tured by the buffalo, and roamed hy the sav
age red man.
Le iving his brother surveying lands on the
site of the present eity of Louisville, where he
was soon afterwards slain by the Indians,
j Richard the bravest adventurer of the day,
| proceeded on a solitery expedition of discove-
J ry, w.stward as far as the Mississippi river;
I whence, it is said entirely alone, he m tde liis
way safely back to Vtrgt.iia, through the un
| know.i wilds of Tennessee. At the close of
j the revolutionary struggle in the year 1785.
lie went a second time to Kentucky lo revisit
it. to pass bis life among the scenes hallowed
by liis brother’# blood. He went as an emi
j grant, with a wife and three children of whom
the yuu tgesl, horn i.i Orange county. Vir
ginia, on the 34th of November, 1787. and
then less than a your old, was Zachary
Taylor —a true child ol the border, reared
j amid tlie peril* a,id privations and severe la
bors of every kind which they encountered
who. in that day, reclaimed the desert from
| the barbarian, a.id founded the institutions ol’
freedom ill the depths of the Ibrest.
, It was ia thi* hardy school that Taylor ac
quired the education and qualities, the simple
habits and in inly virtues, which have, at
length, tilled him up to view as one of the re
nowned men,of the world, and commended
liiiu to the eißifi ie ice of twenty millions of
American f.ecmen. as worthy to serve them,
in Ihe executive chair, a*, the representative
ol their sovereignty. W here is the man to
be found more worthy of the honor I Did the

ily through the and mgers of the “ Wilderness

Honeyed taut liu prosperity arose from n
j ecial luc't or good Unto ie ; and lie called
himself PelU’ tin Happy or l'ur'.unule. The
mine surprising success Ims herctolbre. al
ways marked the career of Taylor j who, how
ever, assumes no surname, hut leaves all to
iiis countrymen who have already decided to
call him —not Taylor the Happy, or Fortu
nate. —hut Taylor, the next President. We
want a man of happy Un tunes to preside over
the nilairs of the Republic. But let us ob
serve how these happy fortunes began at Fort
Harrison.
Fort Harrison wasa mere stockade or block
house fort designed liir deletice against Indi
ans co itainiog barracks store-rooms a guard
house, & . hot without artdl ry. or any other
better means of resistinga -iego than muskets
and the determined resolution of a young
commander, incapable of leer; nnd whose
own sickness with extreni • h > ii'y debility.—
1 t: e wi a'tness and for a time the coasterna
i tio.i of his force—toe pires • ice ol terrified
no i-combatanis—’ nine women and children,”
1 —the number of Ilia locs —the exposed posi
tion of the tort, remote .ram all Ml cor.—and
let us add. the recollection of a young wife
and child (’or Taylor had married in 1810 )
to whom Ins thoughts on that dreadful night,
must often have wandered —failed to drive
him from his balance. “My presence of mind,”
said the voung Captain i.i liis despatch to
General Harrison, “did not for a moment for
sake me.” It was 11 o’clock, on the night of
the 4 1 h of September. 1812. Hostile Indians
were uround in unknown numbers. Two
young men had beon shot and scalped the
evening before, at n little distance Irom the
fort, aaj their bodies Ibu id and brought in
that mor i ig. In the evening a party of
thirty or forty Indians made their appearance,
attempting the treacherous stratagem of a
fl ig of truce —which did not however de
j ceive the cautious Taylor—and proposing a
| conference next morning. Captain Taylor
prepared lor the pretended coalcivnce by im
mediately inspecting the arms of his men
s rving them with sixteen rounds of ammuni
tion ; und scltingu guard of ‘six privates nnd
two non-eoiiitpissioned olli t-rs”—all that he
could, lor he had only •• ten or fifteen men able
to do any thing all the others being sick or
convalescent,” (we copy the words of his de
spatch,) and ordering one of the non-commis
sioned olfi ers to inaki; up for deficiencies in
l. e guard hy walking the rounds all night.
‘ to prevent the Indians taking any advantage
of us. provided they had any intention ol at
tacking us ” says Captain Taylor, he lay down
lo sleep; because, iu consequence of his weak
ness, he ‘ was not able to be up much throuirh
i the nig lit.* 4
At eleven o’clock, he was awakened hy a
musket shot; and rushing from his bed, he
discovered that the attack had been begun hy
“several hundred Indians,” —that the Ibrt was
inflames —anti that his men overcome by the
horror o.’ their situation and the shrieks of the
I women and children, were completely paral
yzed by terror, so that two of them and two
ot’ the stoutest ” too. leaped the pickets, in the
unavailing attempt to escape. In this desper
ate conjuncture, every tiling depended in on
the courage and resources of a pour sick youth,
’ who had never been in battle hut to wl one
and to whom only, all looked lor protection. —
Here, in this little heleagured post, on that
night of terror, ll.tshed out the lineaments of
that character which lately, shone so glori
ously. with u matured grandeur, at Bu.-na
Vista. As culm as resolute, as quick in ex
pedients, as ready in their execution, the young
Captain exhibited all tlie traits of the illustri
ous General. It was the ll na.-s which caused
the panic; they were lupidly opening a path
way to the fierce besiegers; but it was a sin
gle block-house only which was on lire; and
it was equ illy po-sib!e. ns he perceived to
arre-t the conflagration, and to provide anew
harrier behind the burning block-house. Tlie
; suggestion and the orders of Captain Taylor
immediately inspired the soldiers with new
lile ; “and never,” said lie ‘ did men act with
more firmness or desperation.” Some clwnb
i ered lo tlie roofs throwing them oil amid
showers of bullets and arrows so as to inter
: cept the flames which wore thus soon subdued;
others wrought at a temporary breast work,
so that when the block-house tell, the savages
i found themselves repelled irom its ashes hy a
I new wall of defence “as high as a man’s
head,” whence came the flash and balls of
American rifles. In short, the Indians fierce
; and numerous ns they were, won bullied —re-
-1 polled—defeated; nnl at six o'clock in die
1 mo. ning abandoning their expected prey, they
, fled Irom the rums of Fort Harrison —as the
legions of CSanta Anna fled, m after years, at
Buena Vista, Irom the wrecks of the lew shat
tered regiments and broken h iilalions which
made up the petty, hut invincible army of
him who saved Fort Uariison.
In both these battles the first and the last
the smallest and the greatest fought by Gen
era! Taylor lie displayed precisely the same
qualities—calm fortitude, perfect equ inanity,
constant presence of muni, great caution ur]
; conquerable resolution, and the secret | ower
ul’ imbuing his followers wit'i he; own courage
, —which made both, though fought under di s
peruie circuaistan.es victories. We shall
i find tilese.great military qu ilities exhibited
during hiswhoie military career; und we shall
find other qualities analogous though diverse
united s id c ‘-operating with them under other
circumstances which combine to form the eb
m *nts of a grent character equally ada, led
to the surccuilul rule of an army and tlie ail
ministration ol’ u state. —Philadelphia Sorlh
