Tho object "f tho Stuta of Georgia in constructing

NEXT PRESIDENT.
We staled «»me reason* last week, which we
thought ought to influence the State Rights parly to
vote for neither Mr. Clny nor Mr. Van Heren for
President of tht» United State*. If these • reason*
bo well f.iundod, there ure two courses only which
can bo pursued cnti-isienily wuh the principle*
iq on which the party I* based, dial which wo all
profess to heli.-v.-are worth preserving. First, se
lect some prominent individu :l fiorn our own ranks
whoso meri'S and-principle* da-erve our suflriigus,
and couceniiuiv the vole of the puny upon him.—
Tlds course Inis been ivco'iiinoudcd and nhlyndvo-
calcii, by n-portion of tho p.riyand pre-s in tbit
State. The admitted fact, bow ever, Unit i In* indi
vidual thus supported would-land n» clmnceofeh-c-
lion, the incrcndiig soliciuide of a portion of ilm
Suite Higbi* party to siumiu the present Adminis-
Irulioii, object humble a* it may he, in preference to
ooe wliicli tln-y fear might prove much, more ob
ject ionaldc, wl.ilst there lire many wlm believe we
callout bn worsted, and are willing to see any
cluing", In tli" hope that we m glit Im bettered—all
render it very uncertain w hettuo we can concentra'«
ilia ferae of liir party in Gtmrgiu upon nay one,
even of our own principle*.
If tin- signs of tho tones Indicate to os that this
ennno' he done wiili success, we should be adding
iiml to fire by running a nominal sandidaic. and it
i* to be fear, d lint acrimonious feeling* would Im
engendered, in wliicli priwplo would cease to gov
ern, and our iluhy und identity as u party would bu
clesiMiynd.
The second course to he suggested, is f»rlhe par
ty to fil'ilum entirely, a* a party, from nil tmriiripn-
tion inllmelt'ciion. This view is enforced by tho
fact that Me. Van Br.'cnJias n strong party already
-rgani/ed in tlie Stine, which with the assistance of
a |Mr;ion of tlm St it" R'ghts party,who will vote for
him. will give him lit" vole of G>-..rgin in spite ofev-
ery • Hurt which may im made to the contrary. Wo
think it nliurly usoU-s* to deny the fact, that no Slate
in |hn Union is more certain to tnppnti Mr. Van
Rureii than thi*, and th rofore -It ill prcdicalo our
aigumenis upon this lm*is.
Tha running of Mr. Clay, then, will only have a
tendency to divide the Stnto Rights party. Iiy dri
ving (lie Vim' BiiVen P'.rtioil ofiiatijl turibcr away,
and It i* liigltlv pro'mhle thut in tho efl'orvefaenco-t ul
parly strife they may hmuiheir identny, nnd become
compleiely in r»cd with the Adniiuistnuiun party.
Thu will Im un,cvii wiilioutn cm responding guiidiliir
uvea admitting tli.it Mr. Cliiv'svli.v ition would re
sult ingoiNl, Im cannot receive any aid bom the Stale
of Georgia. Thus we see how a party huseil upon
correct principles may bn divided, in nttempting to
uliusa between two evils; destroyed by it mere per
sonal preference, wiilnnii ail ngrcRmeat in u single
important p.iiitiuitl prineiple. Ry luring noenndi-
Into w intever, little interest and no feeling will |>o
•soiled among us. and Whenever, hcrmiticr, ill-* par
ly miiy wish to concentrate h-r the accomplishment
of my ohji'C.t Im veil upon principle, it will not liodif-
lintili to do il, and it may Im thut four year* may do-
vo.opn circumstances under which tile Siato Rights
parly may uct mo*l ullicienily fur tlm weliinu of tlm

VERY LATE FRuM JAMAICA.

must therefore satisfy ourselvos to-day with, a few
brief notico* uf pairing events in that now interest
ing region.
The debates un tho Jamaica hill, in tho British
Enrollment, uf course excite much discus-inn in the
island import. Tito Despatch wage* fierce war up
on thu mil on Ha own account—'lie Morning Jour
nal takes breeder ground, nnd denies tho right of
tho British Parlatnioiil to legislate fur Jamaica at
nil.
Tho retupval of Sir Lionel Smith dace notuppoai

it wa* itntici|*niod The Despatch rejoices, and the
Joumul pretest* und grieves.
A very severe shock of earthqmh© was felt nt
Kingston on tho morning of July 29. which occa
sioned great alarm, but it was nut knowu that any

HANOVER.
There had been serious disturb#ore* fa this
kingdom, nnd particularly fa the capital. They
grew out of e iietilion in ibe (Serrneniu Diet against
lire arbitrary proceedings of the King, and for the
restoration of ilm constitution of 1833. This peti
tion was signed by M. Rutnunn, chief uf the magis
tracy; and King Erne-l, a* soon as the fact engte to
his knowledge, suspended M. Huraunn, and order
ed him tube tried by tbe l'rivy Cuuncil.
Thereupon tho citizens of Hanover rase in e body
and pnreecdvd to the palace, where they had an in
terview with the King, whom they told very firmly,
that by tho law M. Rumaun could not be tried by thu
Privy Council, but only by u municipal tribunal;
and tho King wu* farced to own that such was tire
law.
Of course M. Rumann would lie nc,quitted, his
judge# having Ireen equally guilty with himself.
In, the raciuilimo great exasperation existed a-

honor and udvuniiigo of having among them other
.foreigners not employed in any public capacity,
'wlm hud cum» aiming them for the puipoo- of see-

hopt^night often Im suen ugain. Among theso Io-

thut grout country whose people wo were otiliged Io-
gnlly to call Ibreignnis, Imt who were siill ourbreth-

It was moot gratifying to him tint such iimnn had
been present ai tlmt meeting, tlmt lie mielit know
w lint the farmer* of England really were, uud he a-
hie to report to his fellow-citizens the manner in
which thny were united, from every class, in promo

gave, " The health of Mr. Webster, umi other d

Whatever else iniaht tend to enrich nnd beautify
society, tliut which feeds und clothe* comfurtubly
tho greut muss uf munkind should always, ho rou-
tended, ho regarded us tlie greut foundation of nn-
tioaul interest. He need not suy that the ngrii-ul-

Tlie importance of ugriru-turn to n notion wns ob
vious to every man; Imt ft perhaps did not slrifiii' ev-
cry mihd so suddenly, although certidKIy it was e-

blended, that it wa* n matter of notoriety, that the
fear or the pr-wpeet of it short crop in England de
ranged and Hgit itod the business transaction* and
commercial regulation# atid spccufatiun* of tbe whole

I t was natural ih it this should be the cate in those
nntiuns which looked to tho occurrence of a short
crop in England, ns no occasion which may eanblo
them to dispo-e profitably of thoir own surplm pjo

wu* such mi occurrence in the English cnpitul, the
centre of commercial speculation* far the wh»e

Should there he a frost in England 15 dies fater
than muni,should there be an nnveatoniibie drought,
or ten cold und wet days instead t-f ton warm ami
dry one*, when the hui vest should ho reaped, every
exchange in Europe nnd America fait the cense-
qaeiice of it. Hi- would not pmsue these remarks.
( L uud cries of "Go on, go on.") |] 0 p-ust, l.nwn*

ol the great advantage to the interest* o| agriculture
which must result from the formation and operation
