We are in favor of a strict construction of the constitution—and op posed to all systems which have for their object the taking of the many for the benefit Of tlie lew, or of laying restrictions upon Commerce or do mestic industry,—and shall resist all encroach ments on the rights of the States aud the liber ties of the people. Bus whilst we thus expi ess our preference tor the principles of the State Rights party of Georgia, we shall support that party ouly so long as they adhere to those princi ples,—our motto being emphatically ‘-Principles not incu,” and our ambition, to do ami sustain right. As we desigu making tho Mercury a ve hicle of general information to all classes of the community, we shall at all times endeavor to present to our patrons, regardless of labor or ex pense, tho late c t commercial aud political intel ligence. both foreign and domestic; with as great a variety of Literary aud Miscellaneous matter, as our limits will permit. Our columns | will remain open to die temperate discussion of any subject connected with tho public good, ex cluding all scurrility and personal spleen. In fine, whatever will be productive of speedilj rendering beneficial the varied natural advanta ges of our State, elevating the commercial char acterof our city, or meliorating the moral, social and political condition of our people, will meet with our ardent and humble support.

The article of cotton alone brought from Macon, at tt rate of trans portage very far lets than is now paid, w ill more titan (iay.tltis interest, and keep ihe road or- canal iti repair, and the freight on other ;irt : - rles wiii, in tne course of a v<-ry lew years, re imburse the capital expended. The freight and. expenses on a bale of cotton from Macon to Savannah, by, the river, is now more than lie. per lb.—F r the si.ipper has to pav freight,.insurance, and interest, on the outiav I during the odious voyage, and ii not nniYe- qiietniy happens that damage is stisarined to a very considerable extent, which i.> not paid by the insurer, aud is - dead loss to the shipper. The consequence .s, that the planter, when he brings liis cotton to Macon, must content to take 74c. for it, when it js actually w orth on the sea board [)c.or, it lie gets more, then the loss falls on the merchant, w ho buy -;, and wTio; if imprudent enough to sustain many such losses, is ruined, and, in his fids, affects the community in which he resides, and the adjacent country. But with such ammo us is now contemplated, the .costyfff transporting cotton, including inatrauce and all charges, cou-d not (it most exceed 4c. per lb., and con sequently enhance the value of cottoq at Ma con, the difference of. one cent the lb„ and, if the amount of cotton sent from Macon, be 100,000 bales per annum,, the saving to the country, to the planter, to the citizen of -Ma con, would be equal to $300,000. per annum,, besides paying to the road such a rate as. would amply meet its expenses. The return freight and other articles, sent down the country would,be also an important item of preftt to the proprietors of the route, and of saving to the country : and coni, wheat &c. which now rot in the hands, of the produ cer, would find a ready market, and the sen board of Georgia, instead of being dependant ou North Carolina and Baltimore for their corn, Bacon, &c., would derive its supplies from its own fellow citizens. Every planter and.evcry citizen is therefore doubly interested in the accomplishment of' the work. He who makes ten bags of cot-, ton per annum will gain every year thirty dollars, in the sale of his cott*m, ami probably- as much mote iu the purchase of his supplies. For, although some few of the lighter articles of dry goods may not be much lowered in. price to Itiin, yet in the articles of coffee, sugar, salt, &c. he will be a gainer exactly in the ra tio of tiie difference of expense in transport ing these articles to Macon, and bis gain con sequently be ten per cent, on his purchases.. The spirit of Internal Improvement is awa kened, and a disposition to connect the interi or with the sea board is manifested. It is im portant that this disposition be so directed, as that our state pride and our personal interests be consulted, and every consideration of Lome,, affection, and general interest, must lead our citizens to prefer Savaimah as die emporium of its trade, and to induce them to foster our own sea port rather than that of a sister state.- 1 trust that the subject will attract the atten- liott of our citizens, and that they w ill not be so engross; d by the politico! abstractions, as, to neglect that which is of so vital interest.
