(Correction.—There wus an error in the statement qf last wet k, that there was but one execution against Mr. Burritt older than Mr. Watson’s. We have understood since that there are more than one - b\.t did not know it before. It was not designed to cast any reflection on Mr. Watson—but merely to shew that there was no at tempt by the purchaser of this press or his friends, to de preciate the property. If the other creditors had been disposed, the properly might have been run up to the amount of their demands. Mr. Solomon stopped his bid ding a: $1540—and the nesi bid got Rat $!5»0. We shall notice h-rfcafter the compliments paid to Dr. Fort on the occasion of ms receniapp iintment—and pay .some attention to the “Pace offering.” We h ive not room for t tem at presen* The business of the Superior Court, now in session, lias prevented our attention to se veral topics of inter, st. The Weather.— We do not ncoHeet to hire ever seen such a continued drought as has prevailed throughout almost every r gion of our State since early in June. The earth has not been thoroughly wet in this region since that time. We have .rcasionally had light showers—hui never enough to last three days with benefit to vegetation. —Notwithstanding we are thus parched wi h heal and drought—it remains very healthy. We do not know who is the writer of the following Com.uunic .tion; yet, as it does not impugn the motives or character of any individual, we nut uiny give it u puce, but briefly answer his enquiry, according to our concep tions of the subject. Though we have ever been opposed to a protecting Ta riff, yet, (assuming forty-five per cent as the average duty) *ve cannot perceive how the farmer, who raises 100 bags ot Cotton pays 45 of them to the Government—unless he •pend the whole ot them in the purchase cf articles paying 45 per cent duties, fur the support of his family, planta tion, &c. It is evident that the consiim. T dues not p .y du ties on more than he consumes. Tins is a plain proposi tion. And it is l>y overlooking this simple truth, that Mr. McDuffie »nd others have bten led into a fundamen tal error. If (lie Southern States p iy a duty of 45 per cent upon the whole product of their agricultural industry, they must lay out, as wesaj, their entire crops— otherwise they could not pay it upon the ivhole of them. And by such a process, io two years, we should all be bankrupts For wniie we spent our entire income, our lands would be growing worse, and our debts (for most of the farmers owe some money) would be tuting up our negroes, stock, dtc. If this reasoning be correct—then, Mr. Subscriber; as tour “outlays” for iron, salt. kc. only consume 15 of your Lundr d bags—it is plain, ihat you do not pay 45 of them to the Government by way of duty— but you save 85 for I profit You can easily make the estimate to shew ihe error of such an idea. Though the following mny not be strictly [correct—yet, we think, you w ill find it sufficiently so, (in [round numbers) to expose the fallacy of the reasoning in Itbe Journal. I Suppose your 10.0 bans, each to weigh 300 lbs. J and to be sold at 10 ctnls—They will yield &3.GQ0 W J5 of suine weight and price jield $450 Suppose that you pay 45 per cent upon the whole of this $450—Equal to $202 50 * This lust amount (which is the dut)) deducted from the $450— leaves $247 50 By this sirnpic process, you will at once see that what ■you could buy fur $217 50, without any duty at all, will •now, under the Tariff, c«st you $450— mat ing, (accord- ling to this estimate) vour tux for duties $202 53, or about 'six bags and three quarters, insti ad of 45 bags, out of one hundred. Taking the average of the Tariff of 1816, to be 20 per /Cent, the consumer pays at the rate of 25 per cent for in- . crease of duties since that period. With that tariff the South was pretty well satisfied. There must have been some revenue fur the support of Government, which bad incurred a heavy debt by the late war. Deducting there fore 20 per cent, from $202 50; you have a fraction over IJ160, which, upon the basis of o.ir estimate, the planter pays to the Government upon 100 bags of Cotton, (if 15 will get his supplies)—and so on, in proportion as his ex penditures are greater or less. Though this estimate falls very far short of 45 bags or cbotit $ 1350, yet it will be seen that it is a heavy tax. VVhen to this we add the depreciated price of Cotton oc casioned by the restrictions upon commerce, the injustice and oppression of the Tariff, are very evident. And when we consider that this Tariff'is a bounty to the manufac turer, the hardship is more glaring. The moral and political effects oi the tariff as are much to he reprobated, as the inequality of its operation. It gives to large capitalists great influence over the laborers in tbier employ. The laborers generally fall in debt to the little factory store at the end of the year—and must re-engage fur another year. Thu* they are in a situation in which they are very liable to the political control of their em ployers, or to be turned out of employ. The Tariff also gives to the dishonest importer a great advantage over the honest. The former smuggles in his goods and cheats the Government—the latter, irom conscientious scruples, pays the duty—and of course his profits are abridged. Thus, Mr. Subscriber, we have briefly given you our views of the subject of your inquiries. If you think them wrong, you can correct ua. We cannot perceive how the thing can be settled upon any other principles.—Though this representation of the actual operation of the Tariff, om no’ suit the/ever heat of nullification, yet, it appears to Us to iit the only correct view offfic ease. You know, sir, that our political opponents have charged us with be ing the advocates of the Tariff. You must know too, that this is not true. Because the Clark parly have not been willing to join in the cry that has been made so loud against ihe Government—because they have pursued a steady, undeviating course—because they have preferred dignified, constitutional resistance, to those principles which they deem incorrect, instead of inflamatory repre sentations and forcible resistance—they have been charg ed with unfriendliness toward Southern interests and Southern principles, as they are called. This charge is as unfounded as the other. They do not recognize any such tiling as sectional principles. They look to the great principles, by which the Government must be preserved as a government securing equal rights to every section of the Union. This they believe can only be effected by the same spirit which brought the Government into existence. And they now behold a most signal triumph of theif prin ciples in the almost universal opposition of the Republi can party throughout the Union to the “Carolina doc- trims” as they have been called; or the new Tangled code of ntUlificalion. Having lived through the tumults and prejudices of so many years, we entertain no fear for our j principles. \\ e have never feared the truth. We do not noiv fear it. It will prevail.—But we have not now time fur ihis discussion. TO THE EDITOR OP THE FEDERAL ONION. Sir—I nave read in the Georgia Journal, published sometime su.ee, that every planter who raises 100 bales ot Cotton pay s 45 baits to the General Government, and so in proportion on a Ess or greater quantity raised.— t his information, Mr. Editor, has rendered me very un easy; and it has c.iu»td me many sleepless nights, to find out how I, a planter e. ho make about a hundred bales of Cotton, pay 4a ol them to Lhe General Government, when 1 get as good, ana oiten a better p-ice lor my Cotton than my neighbors. I purchase but few imported articles, as mere are maue on my piauiaiion nearly all the clothes for the family, and for all the domestics. My out lays are ior iron, salt, coffee, tea, sugar uud molasses. T he two latter articles, I know pay a high duty; but that is impos ed, as 1 am informed, to encourage the Southern planter, The snnK knick-knacks lot the guts, by way of finery, they cnntiive topuichase out of the luon.y they receive from the sale of eggs, poultry, & c. As you, Mr. Editor, know ail about these things, please inform me through your use- i’u; paper, how n is that 1 lose 45 bales of Colton out oi the I (JO that I make, as I am sure that 15 bales will pay fur ati the imported articles that i purchase yearly. It will greatly relieve the minds of my neighbors, as well as a y own, to know how these things happen, foi we talk tin- subject over, and cannot for our lives make it out. I thought I was doing mighty well, as I was laying by money yearly for my children; but the information in lhe Journal makes me unhappy, fearing next the General Government w ill take the money that 1 have been hording up for my children, when they become men and women, to give them a start in life. A SUBSCRIBER. [COMMUNICATED.], Jtfr. Editor.—I find upon the list of names announc ed as Candidates lor the next Congress, from Ibis State, that of Gen. DANIEL NEWNAN. Having known this distinguished warrior and patriot for many years—I feel proud as a Voter, that he has consented to offer his servi ces fai so important and dignified & station. It is respect fully hoped that the good people of Georgia, in whose cause his blood was so freely and cheerfully shed in the last Indian War, will, as some reward, place his name on their tickets at the October election. His old soldiers i am sure will not forget him. C ALEBA. [communicated] SERIOUS ADVICE TO THE CLARK PARTY, Cnntabiing six reasons why they should elevate to a seat in Congress “that pink of purity, SEATON GRANT- LAND.” 1st. Itis important you should choose for your repre sentative, a man who thinks himself infinitely your su perior, or at least regards you with unmixed contempt and scorn. Therefore you should choose Seaton Grant land. 2d. You ought to choose the man most averse to your principles, and who regards you with the greatest abhor rence. Now, who in these respects can be compared wi'.h Seaton Granllanu? 3d. Choose by all means him who has incessantly vil- iified, misrepresented, and slandered you. Now only open the file of foe Recorder, and see if you have not found the man. 4 h. Choose above all a political renegado, who cannot be torn loose from the money-bag by the most violent revolution of the political wheel, and who has literally grown rich by abusing you. 5th. Choose not an implacable enemy merely,but one void of magnanimity or generosity Shew some grati tude to Seaton, who since you became powerless in 1825, bas scarcely suffered h week to pass without opening the culverins of his foul batteiy against you. Now hear the voice of a lrieiid: Ornament your tickets with the name of “the pink of purity.” Do not compel me to reiterate the cry of the unfeeling drummer who ap plied the lash a tittle higher and a little lower as requested hy the suffering criminal, till disgusted with bis com- pfsinis, he doubled the violence of his blows, saying-— Z.tumls ! there is no such thing as pleasing you.” And G h. I had almost forgotten the last and most import ant reason—Seaton looks to you for support! ! ! SWIFT. [communicated.] To the Editor of the Athenian — [continued from our last.] But, Sir, theie is yet another reason for believing that you secretly worship at the shrine of this Baal. It is well known that you arc always “in the habit of rejecting articles altogether, that do not suit your views.” There fore the admission, and publication of an article in your paper, is sufficient proof that you agree with the writer, or think favorably of his opinions. Here then the evi dence is another degree stronger, that Cooper’s doctrines are favorites with you. But we can take yet one step higher in the scale of evidence. According to your con struction, ihe loregoing remarks apply to cases where the article has been published at the special instance and re quest of the author. In this instance there is litlleroom lor the exercise of discretion; b-cause very often person al regard will induce the publication of an original essay, containing sentiments from which the editor wholly dis sents. But as you have rigidly applied your rule to this case, I ask if it be not more Conclusive, wheit the article is expressly selected for publication from a mass of other mailt r, by the Editor himself? You cunrtot refuse assert to a proposition so plain, and in yielding it, you again condemn yourself, for you are precisely in this situation. You selected Cooper’s letter for publication; you did so, because the sentiments contained in it were of kin dred with your own; the conclusion, therefore, the obvi ous, infallible, conclusion from these fact^, is, that you are an enemy to the American confederacy ; to tbe Union of these Slates that constitutes them one great people — Remember vOur very delicate allusion to “pitch,” and “defilement,” &c ; you are defiled with these atrocious doctrines, and never can the stain be purged away.— They have entered into your bosom- they have penetra ted to the secret recesses of your heart; by their “abid- inginfluence” they have acquired the “tenacity” of “in nate principles.” This influence is betrayed in every act you perform; in every word you utter; in every political sentiment you express. In reply to these “damning proofs,” I am aware that you will point to your paper of subsequent date, in which you say, that you “agree with the Statesman, in consid ering Cooper an inconsistent and dangerous man.” But my good Sir, this asseveration comes loo late; you bad previously published Cooper’s letter under eircumstances Which your own rule of evidence irtefutably shows, a- mounts to an unconditional acknowledgment cf the soundness of his doctrines, and the value of the man who we have been told by your fellow laborer of tbe Journal, has done so much for Southern interests ! So far as your vehicle extended, you had aided his designs by circulating his poison, unattended by one poor word of antidote, thereby clearly giving your readers to understand that voO approbated the sentiments it conveyed. How is it Ihen, that you have so suddenly discovered their author to be “an inconsistent and dangerous man?’* Have you but recently arrived at this knowledge, or did you possess it at the time of adopting his creed? for with you, adop tion, and publication, are synonomous terms. If you did then know that he was so inconsistent and dangerous a man, felt you no remorse of conscience for furnishing your readers with intellectual food from a source so cor rupt, and that too “unaccompanied” by one friendly word of caution against its deleterious effects? Methinbs I hear you exclaim with a certain renowned knight, “ah! no more of that, Hal, an thou (west me!” In pity to your distress, the “milk of human kindness” would urge me to spare you; but your sins are too many and too fla gitious, for the arm of justice to be atajed in its descent. Notwithstanding you knew Ccoper to be an “inconsist ent and dangerous man,” you published his mischievous sentiments; when these sentiments were held up to pub lic execration by tbe editor of this paper, jcu made use of the language above quoted; you denounced Cooper. but defended his doctrines; you reprobated the mischief- maker, but sanctified the mischief. When the indignant voice of a virtuous people had wrathfully uttered its con demnation of this unprincipled tool, and his baleful pro duction, like the Recorder, you could not even then discard them both; or like tlie Journal, hold your tongue until a more fit opportunity; by yielding one half to public jus tice, you thought to be permitted peaceably to hold on to tbe other half; so you discarded Cooper, and cleared unto his doctrines, expecting thereby perfect impunity for the latter. But the device is too palpable, foe artifice too shallow—you canoot hope to conceal your true motives under a veil so thin; sharp-sighted public intelligence has scanned your designs and already pronounced sen tence upon them. The conclusion to which we arrive is this; that you cannot evade the force of the charge first alledged, by citing this concession extorted from you by the force of public opinion; it came too late; tike tbe vane of a steeple, you veered round, not by an effort of volition, but, ex necessitate rei, by the power of a gale you could not resist. In this however, you have not been singular, your right worthy confederate of foe Recorder has just done the same thing—and although you will say, ‘‘better late than never,” I reply, that we judge actions, by the native which prompt thtm, consequently your pre sent anxiety lobe loudest in vociferating your anathemas against the pet son of Cooper, whilst you defend his creed, cannot stand the test of the crucible. Besides, I now proceed to shew, that the “Leopard has not changed his spots, or the Ethiopian Lis hue.” The Athenian yet holds on to the opinions imbibed from its prototype, the English Cooper. The following extract from your paper .under date of the 20ib June, 1830, will speak for itself: “Tbe following we find published in the Charleston Courier, anJ is said to be an extract from a gentleman in this state to another in that city. Wc re-publish it, be cause we think it expresses, in regard to the part this state will take, the sentiments of nine-tenth* of the people.— h outh-Carolina need not expect any aid from Georgia al this time, in an open resistance to the general govern ment—if she does, aha will assuredly be disappointed. Georgia is as determined to have tbe tariff modified a3 South-Carolina, and the milknium will never arrive until that is done. But we do not think it expedient al present to run a tilt with the northern states to effect it. On the contrary we believe it to be among the most ardent wish es of the promoters of Ihe “American System” at the north, that the Southern States may be indiscreet enough to resortjo violence. Georgia will try reason and argu ment a while longer; if they do not answer, more cogen.. tySSSVjes may become necessary. At this time her peo- pit QfhVpct see any good to be derived from ah open resis tance. Even if the policy was clear, which is by no means the case with us, the people are not prepared for it; and any attempt at force ivould but bring contempt on its imbecility. The energies of the state could not be exerted, and the feeble effort would end in a failure.” Sir, if like Cooper you do not “cherish a cordial and habitual” hatred to our institutions, and the Union of States by which alone these institutions can be preserved, for what purpose was this expression of such feelings? Recollect this is the highest evidence of your opinions that can be offered to tlie people—There is no necessity for inference, or presumption, here, to gather your real views. It is a direct, unequivocal, expression of them, from your own pen; and goes conclusively to prove the truth of the charge, that you are jet a ©ooperite in heart. You say, “South-Carolina ntcdr.ot expect any aid from Georgia, a! this time, in an open resistance to the general government.” Will you please then, to designate the precise time, when such “aid” may be expected? Is it not fair to infer, that as yon know tlie present is not the time, you also' know at what future time the expected aid shall be furnished? Does not this savour of Cooper’s favorite system of “calculation?” Again you say. “itis not expedient at present” to adopt Ibis course. Now, Sir, you sufficiently ut.derstand the import of wetrds, to know that procrastination, and abandonment, are noi sy nonomous terms—hence I infer that the only difference of opinion bet eer. you and the Carolina disunionists, relates to the time when it may become expedient to re sort to that measure. Therefore ytu merely favor post poning the event, and not at al! tbe abandonment of the whole design. You say again; “at this time, her, (that is, Georgia's) peoplf. cannot see any goal to be derived from an open resistance!” Is there not a strong implication here, that at some future time the people maybe brought to, see that “good may be derived from open resistance?” And may you not have some knowledge of the specific time when the people shall be so made lo think? How, where, and by whom, was that knowh dgc communicated? But, say you, “l/re people are not prepared for it;” and in fact, here lies the grand secret—the truth popped out then. It must have been involuntary, surely. ’Tis a most precious confession. The people are not prepared to shed the blood of their brethren; to pull down the most equitable system of government ever devised by human wisdom. Why, this is true. God grant they may never be prepared to raise their hinds to this sacri legious work! Tiiis ihen is tbe reason why you do net think it expedient at present, to enter into civil ivar; the people are not prepared for it; so whenever the people shall have been prepared, they will find you and others, “always ready!” Why need I array additional proofs; why marshall mori numerous facts *o sustain the charges preferred against you? Whoever has followed me through this investiga tion, must rise from the perusal of this article with the deepest conviction that I have redeemed my pledge, nm proven that >uo have “violated the obligations of truth and justice, by per}, rsibn and misrepresentation!” An. moreover tha 1 you entertam a deliberate and rancorous hostility to the American Union. I promised to develope at the close, the adequate motive, for aH the pains you. and others, have taken to vi/ify, traduce, and misrepre sent, the motives, opinions, and sentiments, of the Editor of this papci—I now do so. You are leagued with others who ardently desire the establishment of a separate con- foder cy at the South: the force of public opinion is the only obstacle that prevents an immediate attempt to ac complish this conspiracy; the public mind requires to be corrupted; you cannot succeed in this, until every press in the State circulates your noxious, withering doctrines The Editor of this paper has discovered your designs, and faithfully warns the people of them; being incorruptible, he must be destroyed; a simultaneous slid systematic course of detraction, and misrepresentation, is commenc ed by some half dozen individuals, who hope by means of a subservient and degraded press, to accomplish theii purpose. The people cannot be prepared for resistance, until J'ou and your confederates have the exclusive pre paration of them—Here then is a true delineation of your real motives; do you recognize the likeness? But the subject expands as I proceed, I must therefore dost; should circumstances require it, you may again hear from mo—a gentle correction now and then admin istered, may prove salutary to your constitutional aberra tions, In tlie mean time I exhort you to reflect seriously whether or not you have deviated from the right thing.— Be governed by the monitions of conscience; let not a false shame prevent you from acknowledging, that your Zeal has seduced the better feelings of your nature. Re- tantation always honorable when Sincere—I will be a- tnong the first to extend to you the hand of forgiveness and reconciliation. Be persuaded then not to attempt a reply unless you can do so in better temper, and with pu rer purpose than is usual with you. Ribaldry and abuse never yet succeeded to convince one understanding a- bove the level of a brute. Pay more regard to the intel ligence of your readers, and furnish them, if not the thing itself, as near a likeness to argument, as the bad ness of your case admits. I w juld rather, however, find you quietly seated upon the stool of repentance, recol lecting the wisdom of the poet who advises, “to bear the ills we have, rather than fly to others” that may be greater. I will then, with sincerity, exclaim, God preserve you many years ! PHOCION. - ■ • TO CORRESPONDENTS. We are compelled from circumstances beyond our con trol, to postpone several Communications, now under con sideration. Afore good news from the W cut-. We published on Thurs day hut, a letter from a gentleman in Abbeville, stating, in general terms, that a large Majority of the people of that District were opposed to the Nullification or Disun ion measures, which • few’ hot headed and wild enthusi asts among 1 hem, are Urging upon the State. This state ment is now satisfactorily confirmed by another fotter from an influential gentleman of that District, which we copy from yesterday’s Gazette. This intelligence so cheering to the real friends of the State aud the Union, carries dismay into the Nullification ranks in this quarter —and we think we may assure the gentleman in Abbe rille, that he bas qo reason to entertain fears of Charles* ton. She fs (rue to tbe Union, to the State, and to ber own character—and she will trust no man with her desti nies, who is even suspected of Nullification and Disunion principles. She has ivithin her bosom hundreds of talented and high minded sons, who bare never been tainted with the “new fangled doctrines” of the day; and from them she will elect a Delegation, who will give a firm and cordial support to their country’s friends, and unite with them in preserving the State from the most fatal of all calamities —a civil war!—Charleston Courier. “Abreville, August It. "Dear Sir—Since my first recollection, nothing has ever occurred, to agitate the community, to one tenth of foe extent, to which we are now brought in this district, by this new fangled doctiine, called Nullification. The advocates of this measure, so arranged their plan, and so combined their forces here, that when they first moved, it appeared, that it would be impossible to resist them. There was combination of the * * **’s * * * *’s **♦♦’•+* * *’s 4 * * **s * * * ♦'sand* * * *’s, with' - their friends. This combi-, nation was aided by hatred to the Tariff', by the Newspa pers, am! by the known opinion bf Mr. McDuffie, and the Vice President, all in favor d(f Nullification. The party, headed by four or five practised Lawyers, have tra versed the District, in every direction, and with all the powers of their intellect, have preached a crusade against foe Government of their own country. They have mag nified the evils under which we labor, uutd they would bear a comparison with any object, seen through Rand’s Solar Microscope—anJ have promulgated the doctrines of a peaceful and constitutional remedy, called Nullifica tion. This mighty power, this moving concert, it has been my fate, aided by two or three friends, to resist, and although the contest has brew hot rtnd hostile, yet I think I can now safely say, that Nullification, and its friends, are prostrate in this District, to rise no more. We have had about one hundred speeches on the subject, and all that declamation, argument, satire, and irony could do, has been resorted to freely on both sides. The District votes 2400 strong,' and I believe, if the election could come on to-morrow’, that from 6 to 700, would be th : ‘ extent of the strength of the Nullifiers. They carry consternation in their looks, and it is understood, have called Mr. M’Duffie to their aid—and it is sui J he h.ts agreed to speakTor them shortly. If so, he is a ruined man here; and the truth is, he is more unpopular, since his Disunion speech in Congress, than he has ever been before. If he speaks for Ntdiifica- lion, it is very doubtful whether opposition to him will not be started, and under present circumstances, he would be in great danger. But enough of Abbeville.—Tell me, for God’s sake, has Charleston determined to sever the Un ion ! ! Does she believe the middle and up country are with her in this crusade against the Union? If she does, she is ivofully deceived. Nor do I believe that there will be a Nullifier elected from the up country. We hate the Tariff, but love the Union, and will not yet despair of the republic. Wc regard it a3 a question of Union or Disun ion—and we have disunionists among us, but take my word for it, theji are not tbe people, but a lew noisy poli ticians.” ^ A terrible eruption of Mount Etna occurred on the 1SU» May, by which eight villages situated near the mountain, were destroyed with lava and fire. The houses had disappeared under heaps of calcined stones and cin ders, which were thrown around the country to a great dis- tance. A great number of men and cattle perish* d, al though tbe most, frightful explosons gave warning of tbe coming catastrophe. The coast of Calabria and some parts of Italy, were covered with a reddish dust similar to that under which foe country near Etna was buried. A beautiful country bas been ruined by this eruption, which had never been reached by any similar calamity. Trial by jury has been introduced into the Island of Malta. The Court consisted of Chief Justice Sir John stoddart, and two .Maltese Judges. The result is said to have been very satisfactory to the Maltese.

Nearly 30,000 letters, and an immense umber ofexlra papers wereput into the London Post Office on the day of the King’sdeccase.

Dear Sir.—I have tbe satisfaction of informing you that yesterday I moved the Dredging Vessel on the Floun der Slue, in 5] feet water, and commenced dredging at 3 P. M. and filled the first Land Lighter in 15 minutes, wind blowing from S. W. and chopping sea about 3J feet high—Each succeeding lighter was filled in nearly the same lime, conveved away and discharged. The ma- chine operates with the gretest success, and I think in calm weather, we shall be able to remove nearly fifty cubic vards per hour—at al) events much faster than it can be conveyed away.
