»st years sugar cane has become the principal produc* jor. of Louisiana. Of all the applications of l-.bi r, tea* Brccteil to its cultivation, is said to yield to the a * r, | c ' , ‘ irulists the greatest profit, and especially to the wi altby kapitalists. Notwithstanding this, the manufacturers ol Louisiana sugar receive a bounty of fifty per cent, upon Ml the sogar tbey make, in the form of a duty of three ents per pound upon the foreign areicle. The value ol fits bounty to the wealthy planters, ami the interest they -are in retaining it, seems to have proved as convincing Arguments to the Legislature of Louisiana of the cons 1- itionality of destroying fi-reign commerce under t le jiver given to regulate it, as the anticipated high price domestic woolltns, cottons, iron, and whiskey, was , those who voted for the tariff of 1324 and 1828. The selfishness of wealth in this, seems to be taking jp place of ambition in oilier countries, and in like man »r to be indulging its lust for acquisition at the < xpenre justice and the most sacred institutions of the coun- ,y. The measures of the last session of Congress give ,nt little indication of a disposition in the government to clievc ihc Southern people of the tribute which they are ow compelled to pay to the people of the Eastern ami _!ort!icrn States. It is true, that the duty upon salt has been reduc' d, not however because it was unconstitution al and partial, but because its manufacturers were not 8<.fficimtlv numerous to m intnin a monopoly, the effects , of which were felt by a majority of the people. The f duties upon tea ami coffee have also been reduced. The I revenue derived from the impost upon these articles was l drawn n»>rc equally from the entire country than the same amount from • oy >.tlier source whatever. The ef fects ef this measure will he to *xtend the time at which the puhhc ''cln will be paid off. and to fix upon the Sou thern Stales tlie most oppressive part of the present ta- The President’s veto to bills passed by Congress for the appropriation ol money for internal improvements affords the chef ring hope that the Federal Government 0x yl„ again limited to the exercise of its constitutional Bowers. It is perhaps the most singular result of our peculiar form of government, that our free institutions should Jinve been so • ften presened from violation by the.reprc- aenUtives of the people, through the responsibility and patriotism of our elective Chief Mag'strates. The resolution of the Legislature directing the appro priation of five hundred dollars fur furnishing and re pairing the G«ve.ri’ment House, was, in part, executed, before it was discovered that that sum had not bien in- •er*f-d in the act of appropriation. The Government House required some reps ns to render it inhabitable— They were made md paid for out of the contingent fond. J^o warrant can bdrawn to pay for the articles of ftir fiitur which have been furnished, until authority is gran ted by Jaw. You are r< ferred to the quarterly reports of the Inspec tor- f >r an account of the profits and i xuenses of the Pe nitentiary, during the three first quarters of the present y r. 1'he sum of 5000 dollars, appropriated for erect ing 150 cells, and o’her improvements in the buildings, has not been expended bv the inspectors, for reasons which are stated fully in their reports. It is to he regret ted that any cause should have produced this effect. Ex perience has fully proven (hat Penitentiary punishment e li#*n inflicted as it has been hitherto done in this State, instead f-.f reforming convicts, returns them to society callous to the sense of reputation, improved in the art of iril!liny, and fearless of the consequences which the law att iclies to the cumuii-si->n of crime. I. is believed that the tiest correction for this inefficiency of our mode of punishment, is to hr found in the solitary confinement of each convict at all times, except when at labor, and me tis. It is therefrre recommended, that the law of 1329, be so amended, as to carry its provisions upon this subject into execution. Much useful information has been collected and published by the industrious and be nevolent iff irts of the Prison Discipline Society of Bos ton. in relation to Penitentiary punishment. It might be list ful to direct the purchase of a considerable number of Sts reports. The laws fur the regulation of hr. internal police of ihc Penitentiary r* quire t. b- amended, in such manner as to secure discipline in the guard. AH in this country concur in the opinion, that the gen eral diff ision of knowledge among the people, is necessary to the perfection of individual and social happiness as well as to the proper administration of the Government Toe people of this State have not permitted the policy ; f e«r Uttereiry Instutions, to be questioned. They huvfe by an imperative constitutional enactim nt, required of the Legislature, that tbe arts and sciences be promoted bv donations to the college and the establishment of other seminaries of learning. Our College continues in the same prosperous slate w hich has distinguished it fur ir a- ny years past. It demands however your fur tin r tsup port, to place it upon the same liberal foundation with similar institutions in other States. Its means of cou> nmnicritii-g Mie varied ami accurate scientific knowleege which the present state of public opinion requires of edo- c ate I men, must hi; equal to other institutions of the samt Lin I, or our youth, who seek such improvement, may b< expected to go elsewhere to find it. It is mure importan th >n it is usually comidtred, that our educated and weal thy young men, who must neflesaarially exercise raut-b in- 41 it nee in directing ihe /ff.iis of the Government, shou : d have all their feelings and a larhments identified with th<- charaetcrand prosperity of the Stale—such will Dot al xv ys b». the case with thuse whose scholastic acquire merits are obiained at the Seminaries of Learning in oil er States, or foreign Countries. To be poli:icall» d< vo ■ to the inter sts of our State, we must tlonk and feel wh it. Ev.;n as a m itter of mere selfish polity and economic al expenditure, we ought to retain the wealth which will be expended by ouryour.g men abroad, unless they can b> educated at home The flourishing slate of our Col! g thews the disposition of our people to support it liberally: Permit me therefore to recommend to you such an in crease of its endowment as will enable it to pr cure the v ery best means of dispensing learning to i s matriculates. Toe extent of our terntn'y encrcusing population, anc* prosp ct of future wealth, justify or rather call for this policy. Academies are the necessary supports of a College, uni the most useful and efficient m-ans of forming teach f.ir our com non schools. Tf-t t• rcess of the* Insti tution depends so essenti -'lv upon circum-tances entirely independent ol the public funds, that it is exceedingly ti.liicult to determine what kind of support from the State operates most bentficuili f r their enennr ig< mcnt. It tJ certain that the cause of Lit rature is not much advan ced y mere charters of inc< rporation, and equally so li st the Slate cun neither endow with permanent funds, t:or support by annual ontr hotions, ell the Academi a ’-hut have been incorporated Perhaps appropriations O'jght not to b< mad' for academies, except for their prr- fc'uent endowment, end few endowed but in aid of the ti*ntrihutioD' of individuals.

On motion of Mr. Warren, it was Resolved, That a committee consisting of one member from each judicial circuit, be appointed 'o join a similar committee from the House of Representatives, to prepare and report a bill 10 lay off the State into eight Judicial titled to his seat by a majority of two rotes over his oppo nent. He gave a clear and satisfactory view of the cose, shewing conclusively by the lestimoney that there was a majority of votes in favor of Wood. Ivlr. Nesbit moved to have the documents read, which was done. On the rending ol the Evidence, it appeared that the Circuits, in such a manner as to render the labor of the ceitifying Justices at Darien raised several objections to Judges of the Superior Courts of each Circuit equal. A message was received from the House of Represen tatives informing the Senate that tbe House was orgaiiiz- and ready to proceed to business. On motion of Mr. Allen, a committee of three was ap pointed to join n committee nn the part of the House, to wait on the Governor r.nd inform him that the General Assembly, was ready to receive any Communication from him.

Wenesday, Ooct. 20. Notice for Bills.—By Mr. Allen—A bill to alter and amend an net. to protect the Estates of Orphans and Ur make permanent provisions fur the Poor, passed 18th Dec. 1792. By Mr. Green—A bill to alter nnd amend the election Laws of this State, so far as regards the count; of Gwio- nett. Mr. Daniell, of Madison—A biH to alter and amend the third and seventh sections of the first articles of the I Constitution. the legality or furnialily of tbe return from the election holden at Groom's old place, or thft Sand llilE. The election holden at two other places in the county, Darir-n and Melnto-h’s appeared to be regular. At the Sand Hills it appeared that 40 votes only were given, and 41 were tallied down on the sheet. It appeared also that there were no Clerks regularly appointed, but that the magistrates themselves kept the tally. The return from that District was not regularly certified. In support of the substitute, asserting Wood’s right to his seat, it appeared in evidence by the affidavit of Archi bald Baggs, Esq. that a vote was called for Brailsford and scored tor him—il was badly written, and on farther in spection was discovered to be for Wood. The error was not then corrected—but remained—and thus one more vole was counted out than was actually given in. Affi davits of 29 persons (of tht 40 who vote at that place) were read, stating that they had voted for Wood. There was another affidavit of Justices Biggs and Horn explain ing the discre)Nincy between the number of voters and the number of scotes. It appeared by the affidavit of Mr. A. Lefils that Maj. Wood had proposed to make the votes a tie between him and Braitsford. The certificates of both tbe applicants were informal— Btailsford’s was certified by two—Wood’s by one Justice. The law requires three. Tbe votes polled at the Sand Hills, gave Wood a tjajority of two over Brailsford. After tiie evidence was rcad,| Mr. Watson moved that tbe applicants have letve to be heard in their own cases.— The President decided that if was contrary to precedent. So they were not heatd. On the question being put—will tte Senate receive the substitute in lieu of tte original Report, A spirited debate arote, in which Messrs. Sayre, Nes bit, and BranbMk opposed the receiving ofthe substitute. Tiie; cob tended that tie *Uict letter of the law should XtESXattXZ&TAX. OftSJSKS!
