FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES,
JOHN C. CALHOUN,
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT:
LEVI WiODBVRY.
FOR CONGRESS,
JOHN IV. A. SANFORD,
OF BALDWIN.
We tender our thanks to the Honora
ble l-evi Woodbury, of the U. S. Senate,
for a valuable document—and to the
Honorable J. 11. Lumpkin for a copy of
the President’s message.
Deaths of Members of Congress.
Both Houses of Congress have been
engaged much of their time this session
in rendering the last mournful testimo
nials of respect to deceased members. —
Among the most solemn and affecting of
these were the proceedings of the Senate
relative to the lamented death of the lion.
Lewis F. I.inti of Missouri, to whose no
ble mental and personal qualities, a
splendid tribute was borne by Col. Ben
ton and Mr. Crittenden; and the pro
ceedings of the Senate and House in re
gard to the death of Col. John Miilen,
our late talented representative. Doct.
Lewis F Linn was emphatically one of
nature’s noblemen. With a powerful
and comprehensive intellect, he united
the teudercst and most delicate sensibili
ties. In person, he was equally favored
by nature. Indeed, his was one among
the finest instances of the human form
that we have seen—he had
An eye like Mars, to threaten am! command,
A station like tlic tl -raid Mercury,
New-lighted on a heaven-kissing loll;
A romliin.ilion, anil a Uirm inilml, in<lpr<],
Where every gist did see n to s l his seal,
To give the worhl assurance of a man :
We shall take occasion to re-publish
the eloquent and feeling tributes render
ed to the memory and character of Col.
Miilen by Senator Colquitt and Mr.
Styles at an early period.
Gerrymandering.
This was a term brought into use by
tiie partizans of Elbridge Gerry, in con
sequence of their attempting lo district
one of the northern States in such a man
ner to secure their own ascendency.—
Since then whenever a party does as the
whigs have lately done in our Legisla
ture, i. e district the state, in such a man
ner as to secure to themselves by their
own confession THIRTY-ONE out of
FORTY-SEVEN of the Senatorial Dis
tricts; and SIX out of EIGHT of the
Congressional Districts. It is called
Gerrymandering. If this were done
by any ordinary party, such as the
Democratic party who acknowledged
themselves liable to the common frailties
incident to human nature, this would not
be so remarkable. But that such an act
should be committed by the whig party,
who boldly lay claim t > all the decency,
all the honesty and immaculate purity,
in all respects, is truly astonishing. The
Whigs have only taken two thirds of the
Senatorial Districts and six eighths of the
Congressional districts. What Modes
ty! What Honesty W What dceencyUl
We have been an observer of political
events for some time and can safely
avouch that we do not recollect an in
stance in which political trickery of this
character has not met its just retribution
in disgraceful defeat by whatever parly
practised.
T!i3 competing candidates fur the vacancy
in our Congressional delegation.
(Hen. John W. A. Sanford and General
Clinch tender their services, on this oc
casion, to the people of Georgia. For
honorable principle, urbanity and kind
ness of heart, they arc both equally and
deservedly distinguished. We would
not he, we are not unjust to General
Clinch’s claims while expressing our
conviction that in the capabilities which
qualify for decided usefulness as amern
'ber of Congress, Sanford has greatly the
advantage over his competitor.
General Clinch, if we be correctly ad
vised, has always been a staunch Fede
ralist, and his present position as a lead
er and nominee of the Clay whigs, con
firms the statement. Gen. S., on the
contrary, has from his youth up been a
democratic republican—he was a union
man. or one of the Old pannel, not from
repudiating the constitutional doctrine ol
nullification, hut because he, with many
other good republicans, thought the ear
ly movements in this State on that sub
ject, were precipitate and unseasonable.
He was one of the founders of the Dem
ocratic Association, and has continued
its zealous advocate. Fellow-citizens,
he was born and brought up among you
—you all know him—he is your mm
man, an American patriot and an ‘ out
and-out’ whole souled Georgian—stand
by him , and he’ll stand by you.
I>et every anti-Clay man in the State;
all opposed to tariffs—which while
they diminish revenue, blight com
merce and agriculture, and oppress the
people—all adverse to direct taxation,
the inevitable terminus to Clay’s schemes
of distributing the land revenue and the
assumption by the general government,
of two hundred millions of State debts
due to foreigners, overwhelming the
country by a direct taxation (added to its
present burdens) of twelve millions a
year, to be continued indefinitely, to pay
the interest, thus villanously oppressing
theimiudebtedStates, Georgia amongthe
number; for her foreign debt is a trifle,
to make good the bank plunder, insane
and corrupt projects inflicted on other
States. Should the Clay party succeed
in forty-four, one of the blessings it will
entail on her already tax crushed and
impoverished citizens, will be half a mil
lion of additional annual taxation, to in
crease pari passu, with Clay’s projected
national debt. Are the people of Geor
gia willing to place the seal of their ap
probation on these moral and political
enormities, by electing another Clay
whig to represent them in Congress?—.
For the honor of the State, for the honor
of human nature we trust not. Let the
deceived multitudes depending on the
Monroe rail road appropriation—let the
crowds decoyed intb a support of the
whig ticket at the October election by
promises that they should lie rewarded
by state-house offices, crowd to the bal
lot-boxes and inflict exemplary retribu
tion on the party which betrayed them.
The pledges of Clay whiggery will ere
long rank as low in this country, as Pu
nica tides “ Carthagenian Faith” did
among the Romans.
We have not been thus earnest, from
the present importance of the approach
ing election, but from the bearing it may
have on the portentous struggle of mon
ey against man in forty-four. A strug
gle of the Constitution against its would
be-destroyers, and that in results, may
eventually decide whether or not Wash
ington conquered, Jefferson and Madison
legislated in vain, whether Hampden
and Sidney, our own warriors, our revo
lutionary fathers, and the martyrs to lib
erty over the world, have’sacrificed them
selves on her altar for a grovelling race,
unworthy of freedom, and fit only to be,
the vassals of a monied aristocracy, a
arrogant dictator, or the slaves
of a hereditary despot.
To onr brethren throughout the State,
the appeal is made in a voice that honour,
manhood, or patriotism cannot disregard.
Democrats, to the rescue 1!! Replace,
on Monday next, by the trophies of a sig
nal victory, the tarnish on the banner of
Georgia, consequent on the defeat they
so supinely submitted to in October.—
Let them remember the triumphs of for
ty-one and forty-two ; you are bound by
every honorable, every reasonable mo
tive to surpass them in your next effort
—the field will be contested only by the
Federalists you have so often beaten—
the people are disgusted with the palter
ing, pettifogging policy, and small-pota
toe-manouvering of the Clay majority in
the late session. You have but to will
with energy, and act with unanimity,
and the victory is inevitably yours.
To the gallant democracy of Bibb we
have only to say, ‘Once more unto the
breach dear friends;’ you have the repu
tation of your county, the honour of
three successive victories to preserve—
let every man stir up his neighbor’s pa
triotism, let every man, old panne! or
neip, Van Buren or Calhoun, be oil the
ground bright and early to stop illegal
voting—then, a long pull, a strong pull,
and a pull altogether, not only in Bibb,
but over the State, and Georgia will be
herself again, to the back bone demo
cratic.
Revolutionary Anecdotes.
In one of the positions of the American
army, not more than two or three miles
from that of the British, provender for
the cavalry had become extremely
scarce. In order to obtain a supply, a
party of light dragoons were detailed, all
picked men, marked for their prudent in
trepidity. With instructions to observe
the strictest orders «fc to be cautious, they
departed, and having reached a conveni
ent spot, picketed their horses, and leav
ing a guard, and concerting some signals
separated. One of them, named Judge
taking a lateral direction to the right, af
ter a few minutes’ walk, discovered a
light, which guided him to a farm-house
deserted by the family, but occupied by
five Hessians enjoying themselves merri
ly over a table well supplied with liquor
and provisions. He found their arms
stacked in the yard, and dropping them
into an old well, and visiting the barn,
found it well stocked with the articles
wanted. Having completed his recon
noisance with caution and sagacity, he
returned to the house, burst in the door,
presenting himself, pistol and sabre in
hand, before the panic-struck revellers,
thundered out ‘ surrender or die;’ and
shouting out, ‘back men, back, return to
your horses—if I whistle, come at full
speed.’
The ruse succeeded, the Hessians
signified their surrender, and begged for
quarter and good treatment, which being
promised, he ordered them to come out,
one at a time, and as each did so, he was
hobbled, by cutting his waistband.
Poor Walsh, he was reputed among
his comrades as one of the most reckless
ly daring spirits in that division of the
army; as kind as he was brave, and the
best rider and most expert swordsman in
the service. Poor fellow, onr enquiries
traced him to the environs of Savannah,
after his regiment was disbanded, being
like many other brave officers of the rev
olution disqualified by his military ca
reer and camp habits, from acquiring in
come by the means usual in civil life, he
gradually sunk into extreme poverty and
died of those diseases of proud and keen
ly sensitive sprits, hope deferred and a
broken heart, before the tardy justice of
the republic approached to rescue him.
This anecdote, with other of his revolu
tionary reminescences, we received ma
ny years ago, from a medical gentleman,
who through the war was connected with
Washington’s military family, and
strange enough, while visiting a friend
on one of the sea islands, we found the
identical sergeant Judge, officiating on
the plantation as overseer—he among
many other incidents mentioned the above.
From the Spectator.
The annexation of Texas.
Washington, Dec. 16.
If, from the feebleness, productions,
and position of Texas, it is necessary that
she be united lo someone of the great
powers of the world, for safety and pro
tection, the next question which occurs,
is, to which of these powers shall she be
united? The answer obviously is, to
the United States. But should the Uni
ted States reject her union, under what
other nation is the most likely to fall?
Texas wants protection on the ocean a
gainst the plunder of other nations in
foreign wars. What nations so fit for
this purpose, ns that nation which styles
herself—because the most powerful
“the mistres of the seas?” Texas wants
a market for her agricultural products,
cotton and grain. What nation so well
suited to this end, as that nation which,
whilst it affords the greatest market for
cotton in the world, does not make bread
for her people? Texas wants manufac
tured articles of all kinds for consump
tion. What nation so competent to her
supply, as the great “workship of na
tions?” Every principle of interest thus
drives Texas into the arms of Great Brit
ain. And, on the contrary, are there not
motives of policy and interest equally
powerful on ihe side of Great Britain, to
seek the closest alliance with Texas?
She has ships and sailors to be employed,
by whom the whole business of naviga
tion to and from Texas can be carried on.
She wants the agricultural productions
of Texas, and a market for her manufac
tures. But, above all, Great Britain
wants a position, so admirable for her
purpose as Texas is, to assail, control, or
cripple her only rival on the ocean, and
the only foe she fears to her schemes of
wide, if not universal empire. She can
use Texas to enlarge her supplies of cot
ton, by throwing into that country her
African apprentices; and thus weaken
her dependence on the United States for
this great staple. Or she may take a
contrary course, abolish slavery in Tex
as, with the view of assailing this institu
tion in the Southern States of the Union;
and, if successful in her designs she will
overthrow these States as independent,
and political communities; and, if baffled
at least dissolve the Union, by agitations
within, by her Northern allies, the aboli
tionists, aided without by her ititerfer
rence. Here, then, are all the motives
which can drive two nations together.
If the United States does t ot receive
Texas into her Union, the alternative is
inevitable. Interest and ambition, the
two great principles which govern all
nations, cast her beneath the protection
of Great Britain. The protecting pow
er, is ever the governing power: and
Texas must become practically a colony
of the great rival and foe of ihe United
States. This will not be done suddenly
or by force. At first, the connection
will be by a commercial treaty, probably
pretty fair and independent for Texas.
Increased intercourse, will give increas
ed j>ower to her great protector and ben
efactor. By ar.d by, a treaty like that
which has made Portugal, for two cen
turies, a mere colony to Great Britain,
will be obtained. Loins by her capital
ists. to the people and Government of
Texas, investments of property, and set
tlements under British protection and
guarantees, will by degrees, wind the
arms of this great and insidious nation
around the feeble limbs of Texas; until
at length she will not dare, if she had the
disposition, to resist.
And if this point is gained, and the
people of the United States stand by
passively and permit it, he knows noth
ing of human nature, nothing of the his
tory of this great and ambitious people,
who supposes that it will stop there.
With new and extending interests in the
Gulf of Mexico, there will be additional
motives for seizing its key: Cuba, on
which Great Britain has been long look
ing eager and impatient desires of con
quest and appropation, will soon, also,
fall within her grasp. It is not a respect
or fear of Spain, which now keeps her
from seizing this last of the colonial jew
els which once sparkled on her crown.
I It is the United, States which protects
Cuba; and the feebleness and folly which
would permit Texas to fall under the
control of Great Britain, would at once
seal the fate of Cuba. The destiny of
Texas, is the destiny of Cuba. If we
have not sense and courage enough to
prevent Texas from falling under her
dominion, when all that is required is
our will—how shall we be able to pre
vent her from seizing Cuba when war
with her will be the threatened conse
quence. The same stupidity or coward
ice ,which would hinder the one, will
fall before the other. Great Britain
within ten years, perhaps five, after pos
sessing Texas, will plant the Cross of
St. George on the battleniets of the Mo
ro. And will she stop there? Imbecil
ity in nations, all ways invites interfer
ence and oppression. It will only be
the beginning of the end.
Scenes ia Washington.
A letter to the Philadelphia Gazette,
says—
Some time ago a singular act of gener
osity was performed by a keeper of a
gambling house. The collecting clerk
of a New York house dropped in—hud
was duped out of a considerable amount
of his employer’s money. He burst into
tears and declared he was a ruined man,
as it was out of his power to make up
the loss. The proprietor, with a feeling
worthy of a better occupation, produced
a bible and said to the astonished clerk,
“if you will swear to gamble no more as
long as you live, I will return your mon
ey.” It is needless to say, the oath was
gladly taken, and the father of a large
family rescued from a suicide’s grave.
It is not generally known, that, in
spite of the usury laws, a most lucrative
business is done here by money lenders.
Five per cent, per month can be had,
and this enormous interest of 60 per cent
per annum, is paid from month to month
by scores of clerks who regularly fore
stall their salaries. They draw notes on
the paying clerk, who accepts, witli the
promise of “if due.” So that if the draw
er should be ejected from office before
the maturity of the note, it amounts to
nothing.
Novel Circumstanced-Resuscitation.
The St. Louis Republican of the 7th
inst., relates the following singular oc
currence :
A young lady belonging to a Jewish
family in this city, died on Tuesday of a
nervous disease, and yesterday her friends
started with her remains for interment.
According to a Jewish custom, the body
is taken to the grave yard in a square
box in the same covering in which the
deceased person has expired, and there
in a house appropriated for that purpose,
the female friends of the family unrobe
the body, wash it with cold water, and
annoint it for its Inst resting place.—
While performing this ancient custom
upon the body of this supposed inani
mate corpse, a healthful warmth evapor
ated from it, and evident signs of life
became manifest; the fact was announced
by the ladies, physicians were sent for,
and the sorrowful certainty of death
which overshadowed the countenances
of the friends, gave place to a gleam of
hope. On the arrival of the physicians,
the certainty of her being alive was es
tablished, and means taken to fan the
spark into health, in which wc earnestly
hope they will succeed.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
CONG RESSION A L MA D ISON IA N.
THE approaching session of Congress wilt,
dnubtlcs, he the moat important one, in many
respects, in the annals of .American politics. The
occurrences will he interesting to every citizen,
and we shall make extensive arrangements to
spread before our readers the earliest, most elalio
rate, and most correct accounts of every thing that
transpires at the capital. The proceedings of Con
gress will be minutely attended to, and speeches
delivered in both Houses given at length.
The approaching Congress will differ in many re
spects from any other ever convened. The Execu
tive will be firm and just, and yet courteous and
conciliatory to all the parties that compose the Con
gress, so that in the political conflicts, which may he
anticipated, the PEOPLE’S interests may not be
altogether neglected. One party will have the as
cendancy in the Senate—the other in the House,
while the President will strive, in behalf of the
country, to harmonize their legislative action.
Congress will find that, under the present Execu
tive, the revenues being in responsible hands, no
defalcations have occurred, and that the agents, en
trusted w ith the public funds, have merited the con
fidence of both parties. It will find a tariff some
what imperfect, and differing from the one recom
mended bv Mr. Tyler, passed in the House by the
casting votes of tw entv-one Democrats— thirty-fire
Clay whigs voting against it; while in the Senate
four or five Democia's voteJ for it, and twice that
number of Whigs against it. It will find that the
currency of the country if in a sounder ermdirion
than it has been for twenty years, and that too with
out a Bank , or any thing iff a kindred nature ; while
the five millions of Treasury notes authorized to be
issued bearing six per cent., are takrn by the Gov
ernment creditors without any interest at all. It will
find demagogues and political managers busy cheat
ing the People as usual, preaching distribution, as
sumption of state debts, bank, <tc. Hut they can
n ever make much progress while Mr. Tyler is Pres
ident. All these exciting subjects will be agitated
for the benefit of Presidential aspirants.
At such a time, it is necessary that the citizens in
everv section of the Union should know what is
done* by their representatives, and be acquainted
with the import and design of the debates and move
ments in Congress. The session will no doubt he
long, as well is intensely exciting, and hence the in
ducement to subscribe for the Madisonian by the year,
