"It i* evident, from the feeling* manifested in tho

nr Nr.vv Yoiik.—Tht- following notice of the cere
mony inducting the new city officers into their sta
tions i* from the New York Era.
An unwonted degree of interest and mix-ety was
felt throughout the city yesterday, with regard lo
the consummation ofthi* event. Thu City Hall was
densely crowded lung before the hour of noon vvliieh
was appointed for tin- cen-inony, uud many were
n,v<'*s.irily excluded fiom witnessing it. Commit-
toes having Uvn npimiuted hy the Ronnl of Aider-
men to inform the Mayor that the Hoard of Assis
tants vvn* about to adjourn, a communication was
received from that public officer in reply, referring
to hi« d-panme from office, mid complimenting the
Common Council upon the fidelity with vvliieh they
had performed their duties.
A motion having Ih-cii tiuuie to appoint a commit-
lee to inform the Mayor eleet that the Common
('oilnnl w, ra ready |o ait-nd his inmigunttioii to of
fice. Aid. De Fora>t and Jeremiah were appointed.
Mr. Vwrian having entered the Cmmcil Clmmlvw,
In- look the oath of office, and tli>-n swore ill the se
veral member* of die Comiimu Council mid the As
sessors. He performed thi* duty with n plain re
publican dignity mid honest c.idinlily which comman
ded tin- deepest respect of every spectator. Wo
forlH-ar, today, from making any remark* upon tho
appointment* which were made on this occasion,
leaving them to the judgement of public opinion.—
Upon the appointment of AJdeniinn Williams, how-
ever, lo the I’resiileney of th- Ronnl of Aldermen,
wo cuniior refrain from offering out- sincere rmigrut-
ulatiou to the members of tin? Common Council, to
the democracy, and to our fellow citizens in gener
al.
Ono other circumstance we hog to refer to with
silicon! pleasure and upprovul. There was in* ex
travagant dinner at Rellovue—no array of carriages
and official retinue—all wu* eondurted ion iiimiuer
hocoiniiig 11 body in which representatives of the de
mocracy preponderated.
A N.s'VKtti.xo a Question.—A spoilsman, cours
ing, lost a hare, mid hastily accosted a sheplnard
boy. ‘Boy, did you see n linn? running hy lu-ra?’
• A Imre, sir!’ -Yes,fool’ ‘What! a thing dint runs
fast, with lung our* !' ‘ Yes.' -Tlmt go luppciy, lop-
pety lop ?’ * Yes, yos, iny good fellow.' • What,
very long ear*?* ‘Yes, dolt,' *Ah, then.’ said the
hoy,' l didn't see it.’
J'eKTtlY,—They raise raguhir built poets out

the same spirit, possessed tlm umo enterprise, 20
vra** ago, she would now buyo brett^l ibh wry
la nd of Southern cities!
From puldicMions recently mndw by ibw Cbarlei-
ton editors, it appears, that when our chains of Rail
Rond* are complete, Charlw«ton experts lo reecivn
annually, from and through the Stain of Georgia,
one million halos of cotton, in exchange for a cor*,
responding amount, any fitly millions of dollars
worth of merchandise, From thn data furnlsbadjt
i« conclusive that the River* nnd Roll Ronds of
Georgia mnalhe ill*? thorough fares of most of thn
rot Urn that i* made intliu United State*; nnd of thn
largest portion of tho mi-rcluindiruthut is consumed
in vvnnil West-Tii and South Western State*.
Rut why should this immense commerce go out
of our own .State ! why should tho profits of this
million of ration lings go to Charleston in prefer*
once to Savannah! We see no reason except in
the greater advantage* tho former mny offer. Let
Suvammh enlarge her capital, nnd increaseherfacili-
ties for doing business, equal to Charleston—in a
word, let her prrscvrre in the spirit she is now actu
ated with, nud nothing cun prevent her becon
w-liat she seems destined ut one day to be, the g
emporium of the South,
By tho by, Snvnnnnh should not he satisfied vj,..,
merely seeing her Rail Rond finished to Macon.
That Hind will he of little or no profit, until the lines
from Mucon to llio Tennessee Rivpr and tu Wostpoint
nr«? completed. And, ns the intermediate country
will l»e Imt slightly benefited, twy) will not aid toqny
extent in completing those works, Savannah should
conn- forward at once, and lend a liberal helping
hand, towards tin- rompletion ofthosc Ronds. Tha
city of .Macon has taken 11 liberal share of tho stock
of the Central Rail Ruud, fur tin- bom-lit uf Sn-
vmmuli. Let Savannah take a* liberal n share, ut
least, in tin- Rail Road above Mucon,
A not h-r thing: Suvammh should take more pnins

SAVANNAH.
The subjoined article from tlu- Mania Telegraph
of Tuesday lu*l,breathes imt only 4 Georgian spirit,
hut contain* much matter for rellcctiuii.
Stivuiinnh ha* indeed waked from her Rip Van
Winkle sleep, und iti* only requisite for the Legis-
lututu of Georgia,to crush all petty sectional jealous
ies, and to meet llie public spirit of her citizens with
that fostering aid so essential to a coiimu'irialc.un-
mimity, for Savatmuh to udvunce in prosperity us
rapidly as the enterprise sho feels is being dissemi
nated over all sections of Georgia.
Her Central Rail Rond will he forever a monu
ment oftho ehterpiisc of "Uhl Yuiuacrnvv," in this
enlightened century/
ller Ship (.’until to that Rail Road, now iu the
progress of completion, will still more “ astonish the
world." 1 let-ologiuit Steamer, “The Savannah,"
will, when the Rail Road progresses somewhat fur
ther, ho rivalled by a cotnpanioii, which should (as
il doubtless will) beat- the nutno of nourishing Ma
con. Mnru titan n moiety of the stock is nlreudy
Hiihscrihed hy our own citizens.
Wu ugreu with the editor of the Telegraph, that
"Savuiintili should tnko mure pains " to cultivate
tho ncquniulunco of the “up country.” Instead of
spending our thousands nud tuns ofilioii*and*,nt the
North, draining Georgia of resources which would
build Iter Rail Rond*,—her .Stcam -rs, nud her splen
did edifices for thu promotion of knowledge, and to
enlighten tlu? generation that is treading 0:1 mir
footsteps, let our citizens, or ns muuy ns eon, visit
the up country, sit down uiii| iuterchtitige opinions
with the backwoodsman, partake of his delightful
Ime-cukes, his hucou and his greens, with tlm rich
draught of milk, uud the sweet peach tart which
coue|i,de 9 his meal. Now,we do not mean to imply
that those who aro found of A.-ttor I louse or Sum-
toga varieties, will miss llu-tii through nil the up
cmmtiy of G.-orgi i. Xo,*n short ri le to Micon,
will cut t!|i*ii- lot at tho tallies of friend i who love a
good cut of iip)tt->n 01 beef us well as ourself, nud
whose hospitality runs over from tin-glass of mel
low Miideiiaot spiirkliug'Chainpngiie. Neither do
you liinl as mui.*li homespun iu llm-e parts, ns vve
were waul lo gaze on, Imt the imported emit, and
tlm splendid vehicle, nro ns often lohe seen, and the
latter more frequently tiiiin iu the ancient city of
Ooi.KTHonrc.
Rut wo havo tint lime to write out. nt this mo
ment, our favorable id- ns of A(.ieou. Her Fern lie
College with Us numerous pupils from mmy States
would nloiiu proclaim the public spirit which i* ex
hibited in her infancy. Wlmt she will be, when iu
nil her maturity site steps furtli ih • (Ju--'-n of Inland
Georgia, vve will not venture to predict, lest the
eye uf prophecy may lie too diin to -can into futu
rity, nud pierce the film which humuniiy throws, ns
u veil, bcfmuourlmpes.
Rut, to return to Savanmdi. Lei tlx? Legislature
of 1039, give her Rank capital adequate to her
wants, and ^vvt fear not to predict that our citi
zens will aid, with till their might, tu complete tlm
Forsyth lloud, to the terminus of the Stmc Road.
Thu public spirited men of Savannah will never
be siitisfiedlintil limy view tlm locomotive convey lug
from tlieir depot tho valuable freight which mu*t
he returm-d for the produce of Georgia and Tennes
see, und he cun-cions tlmt it will proceed witliout
interruption to the Tennessee river.
As to lltu recant speculations of thu Charleston
press vve have been waiting to learn uhnl their edi
tors intended to do with Gc-orgia, nnd In-r pcopfr,
when Cnroliim exported all thocrop of Georgia nnd
flooded her vv ith her millions uf merchandise. Old
Rip Van Winkle inu>t lirstjiu lulled lo sleep, andjt Imt
sleep lie us lengthy ns tlmt she ha* just awakened
from, before Georgians are constituted the humble
vassals of their neighbor*. The "schoolmaster is
abroad," and no lino wrought specuhtii msenn ar
rest his march, or say to him—"Thu* far shall limit
go nml no further." The enterprise which flotr'»
on our rivers mid seeks tu divert to another Stile
»>ttr revi-iroes, will, as it is now doing, urge on our
people to accomplish wlmt the wit of tln-ir father*
never im igiacd possible.
Rut f--r the present vve conclude merely remark
ing that the " homespun*" of Georgians t, ifold
heart* too patriotic to ho the sport of any of our
citizens, ami that "g md bargains" urc open tn ul!
who trade with us. In fact, we heard it recently
u**erti-J ju Forsyth, that better Imrgajns in trade
were obtained in Savannah, than were commanded
in places in the interior. As to the ’.'up cmmiiy
newspapers," as far ns vve can judge, we believe
they are well pair-mixed in subscription, iu Suvuu-
null, at least among our imntciliato acquaintances,
though tho advertising patronage may not ben*
large, as yet, as it might be. Rut let the Rail
Road* go on, nnd givo Savannah the Rank rnpitnl
she wants, nnd vve are satisfied tho spirit of '39 will,
liko that of '76, makefu* cmphuticaby "Q«c Peo‘

SAVANNAH.
In no part of the country perhaps, is th-re at thi*
time displaced, more, public spirit than in tbo ciiy
of Savannah. After a long nnd nlmo*t fatal slum-
tar. " Old Ynmaernw" has at length put out her
foot, determined to go nln-ud. She had *lumtari-d
*» I mg, it was almost feared hy her frit-mis they
might na well -provitke the River to run up stream,
nsto nrou*<? In-r iatu artiqn! And when nt last
she fairly did resolve tn wake tip, the nstouishnioat
ol the world was scarcely greater than her ow n.
R'tt Savannah one aroused, it require* no tnigh
IV effort lo keep her op tho qui cire. Since the
commencement of her gigantic Central Rail Road,
nilu r work*, scarcely loss imposing, h «vu tarn com-
I drted.are in progress, nr uader consideration. She

SILK COCOONS.
'Ve have on our table, 11 pretty specimen of co»
conns from 11 lair donor residing in Glynn county.
They are, it i**Huid, "2 crop whites raised from tho
eggs iti twenty seven days." If the drought hnx
not withered the hopes of muuy hereabouts, thU
raising of silk will, vve suspect, bu a lucrative busi
ness. Now, on tho principle that hois npublicben-
ef ictorwlio makes two blades of grass growwlwro
only one grew hnfnrc, vve have a desire to embark
ou a small scuje in this business, for vve love to
share the lot of our fellow-citizens, wltother for wca\

to continence with. Ifevcry one of om- subscribers
igaged iu thcluidiiess, will sand us four each, wa
will have a stock to coiiununce operations, and will
turn a portion of our office, now lumbered will^

THE FOURTH pF JULY.
The anniversary of that great day, which fir^t
dawned oil a 1 mi inn’s freedom, nn tho 4lh of July t
177(5, approaches. The last nimiYcrsary, wo regret
to say, wit* not celebrated by our citizciyt. Tha
military cqmpanies, however, much to their credit,
di«l tint tmfl'er it tn pq*& uiin-thiod, Blit this is q
day on w-lpch the giddier uud the civilian—the law
yer and the diviiiQ-?the in-rehuiit and the mechanic,
"und all classes should meet together, and offer up
their gratitude to the Throne of Grace, for tho mani
fold blessings with which wu have boon favoured us
a people. To I lint who raised u Washinoton, tq
lead a liandfiill of men to victory—who, enabled 4
raw nnd undisciplined militia to meet und defeat q
veteran tinny of the first soldiers ill thn world—tn
Him alone, vve repent, should till prtdse he given.
Besides, we should not allow the day to go by
without recording tnir admiration of tho hcroio
deeds of thu Conscript Fathers—and <ff reading it;
-qletqn silence thill majestic document—that inimit
able production—that almost sacred instrument,
whi-It pledged their "lives,their fortunes,nndllteir
s tored honors,” for tho redemption of their aqtivo
laud from the yoke of the oppressor. No—rather Wo
should, like 11 AMli.CAlt, hrjng our children to the
altar, each succeeding Fourth of July, and cull oq
them, when limy Imd ln-iird that Declaration rend,
to swear that they too vyould he true to their country.
Wo have boon led to these remarks, hy seeing

" MAN WORSHll’.”
One of the leading charges which the Fedeml
Whig party, have heretoforo made against the Re
publicans, wns that of " man-worship,” because of
their attachment to General Jackson, the old and
skilful pilot who weathered the storm thut agitated
the political ocean, anil safely steered tho good ship
Constitution, through an angry sea, despito oftho
quicksand* <>f Nullification, thu Scylla nnd Clmrybdis
of Ruukism nud Federalism. Oil—on ho scudded
her through the briny deep, until he safely moored
her in port, with no other aid than tho never failing
lieqcon qf Democracy to guide him! And, when hq
had seen that light burning clear and brightly, will}
n brilliancy thut will, wo i)opc, last forever, he gave
up his vocation und tho veteran helmsman retired tq
enjoy that ease which hjs years of toil and advanc:
ingago entitled him to. If it was " man-worship,"
to be grateful to such a tnan, then the Democrats
of this great nation vyere guilty of it. And.never dh|
man deserve more gratitude from his country th n
General Jackson. Hu waived his hand, ant} anar
chy was stilled—he culled to his councils the hon
esty am) the talent of tho country—nnd his courso
was approved over nnd over agnin hy tho pooplr.
The name of Jackson deserves to bo associated
with that of hi* great predecessors—the Pefter
Pair it, W.vstnxnr in—with Jefferson, and with
Maim son,
Hut wlmt is tlu? "nmi-worship" oftho Whigst
Damki. Webster is about to visit England—and,
behold, the whole Whig artillery is on the ground |
The guns tin? ranged—charged with wlmt will make
n great noise—like tho " big gun of Massachusetts"-
himself—and off they go! llegeLs a dinner at tho
Astor House. His praises ore sung—the Mtistf
ure invoked—and lie is culled
“ The pride—the boast—
The genius of the notion!”
Well,vvcxnppusc that Mr. Wr.nsTr.it istota under
stood us carrying nil the geniui of America in his
very capacious pockets. In another part of tho
song, he is culled "the jewel oftho nation"—"the
sunbeam," and vve know not whnt.
A purse of several thousund dollars is tpade tip —
and pregeutpi) to hjm by his admirers—a Boston JVl
tailor makes him q present of u full spit of clothes,
&e. Weil, this mny be oil very good—but we nev
er heard thut Andrew Jackson received such sub
stantial favours from " hit worshipper*"—we nev
er hcanl that lie received eleemosynary contribu-
ti-ms. But, perhaps, ns the Whigs huvegiKKl mem
ories they can tell us • w hen ho did. H
Verily, tho Whig* can set up an idol ofihcir owtj
—eye, ^nd "worship" it.
