Athens, 5th Aug. 1335.

I came on to Athens ; going from Washington a '
little out of mv way to visit Mallorysville. a neat
little village in the extreme corner of old Wilkes,
nud where I wns most kindly entertained by our

After the despicable falsehood “that Judge
Schley's houso was brick batted in consequence
of his refusing to illuminate it when news was
received of the victory at Now Orleans,” could
to longer bo bandied with any prospect ofindu-
ciug belief, and lifter its being proved false, they
iliamlon it, and forthwith, tlio Messenger brings
the same change, at another time, and ou anoth
er occasion; viz. when news of ppnee arrived, &
mjs ; “It is believed that the house was brick
bitted at that time. Rut one fact is certain, that
drums and other instruments wero prorured for
the purpose of boating the 'Rogue's March' a-
rtraivl his house hut it was prevented” &c. : aud
then charges Judge Schley with being a federal
ist. opposed to the war, &c.
This honorable constituent of the corps of
“Decency,” the Messenger, is informed that it is
also “believed” that there are those who have
not only the malice and superlative meanness »o
crtite such falsehoods, hut who would likewise
be glad if they were true, and that the foundation
for this belief is ns certain as that the article of
the .Messenger alluded to lias an author. With
shat lawyer-like confidence and boldness, are
these chnigcs brought, and in what a glaring
light are they set fo-th in this declaration as han-
iletl down 10 tbe Messenger. In their eagerness
to grasp all the decency, it is feared thc.0 guar
dims of Slate Rights and individual rights, are
losing somewhat of the talent, as it would seem
from the following manner of their exhibiting it.
“Your house was brick hatted when news was
ttfeived of the victory of New Orleans.”
“’Hint is a wilful lie, sir ; may I ask if you
know it to bo so ?”
"Well, it was when news of peace arrived.”
“Thai is a base lie, sir."
"Well, they beat the Rogue’s March around
Jour bouse, with drums nud other instruments.’'
"There you wilfully lie again.”
“Well they got drums to do it.”
“Your word, Mr. Messenger, is the only proof
of that.”
“Well, I know as how they might have got
f, n if they had tried; besides, you are an o Id
Moralist.”

Wilkes, as well as her neighbors Oglethorpe,
Elbert, Greene. &c. lias suffered immensely from
the spirit of emigration ; her population at this
time being scarce half what it has been, with nu
merotis old field- rurtied out“to let.” Many per
sons have moved away. abandonding| tho lands
they could not sell. Thousands of acres o f old
fields in a body, are thus turned loose.
I made a short stay in Lexington ; hut, ns 1
before observed, all our up country towns have
so close a resemblance, that having described one
it will he unnecessary to enter into a full descrip
tion of another. This town in enmmou with ev
ery other at the south, has suffered greatly from
fires: and several mouriifiil-Iaokiug houseless
chimneys are still standing, brooding over thp ra
vages of the devouring element. There aro some
good farmers in this vicinity, and worn, as the
land is, good crops of cotton continued to he
made. Several worthy planters have turned
tlioir attention to the breeding of horses. & some
have eutured largely into politics. Of these last
1 cannot speak so highly. The race horses from
this county stand pretty fair; but tho “glcthorpe
school of politics is on the decline ; the political
racers being scarcy, subject to stumble, bolt, aim
fly the track.
Rut 1 must hasten to bring you to Athens—the
literary and fashionable emporium of the State.
This being Commencement week, the town is
crowded to overflowing. The magnates of the
land are all here. Hundreds of carriages are ev
ery minute whizzing through the dust* and thou
sands of ladies in the tip of fashion, aie sporting
their fans and their smiles. Without dispute, A-
thens is the gayest place in tho State—probably
has more wealth than any other inland towu. &
as a consequence, more aristocracy. Rut 1 am
not a going to find fault with people for their
wealth, or learning, or extravagance. Each gives
its advantage to the possessor; and by each and
all is tbe State benefiticd. I am glad 10 see the
pride that is manifested for our University, and
the affection with which it is cherished by all clas
ses. It excites a strong State feeling; and as it
is no longer in the exclusive hands of the uullifi-
ers, no harm ean ensue from it. On tbe contra
ry it may do much good, in a politico-economic
al point of view. Ry creating attractions at
home, it prevents many of our citizens from run
ning abroad ; and thus keeps within the Stale
some hundreds of thousands of dollars epnually.
1 shall refer you to the newspapers for the pro
ceedings and things here this week—l have not
time for the detail. There arc. however, about
100 students hero ; and about 20 graduates an
nually.
Athens is nr.t only bocoming celebrated as a
literary^but also as a manufacturing town.'
There are several cotton manufactories already
in this neighborhood, and more are spoken of.—
I am glad to see the prejudice which some of our
ultra-politicians have so long been keeping up a-
gainst manufactories, at last giving way. Thosp
that a single Thought will fill his head like a flash
of'hghtiiiug, wo will, after one or two observa
tions. present him witli another, tfrat he may
have due opportunity to see while ho vents his
spleen in his peculiar style of invective. We
would observe that the day has come in which
men. of sense are no longer trammelled in* their
investigation of truth cither by names oropiu.'ons.
Newton-himself is revered and followed no l'ar-
than his instructions are confirmed m the light of
truth. No one now hut a novice regards heat
tiny thing more or less than an effect produced
by a collision of the particles of light with the
atmosphere. In opposing the long received opi
nion that heal is a body to he a delusion, we urge
nothing against truth, nothing to the disparage
ment of Ne.vton, for all men are falliblo and ho is
sustained by his own eternal fame, but add our
little effort in the universal dissemination of sci
ence. If we should insist Inat the serpent which
tempted Eve was a man and rot “a monkey"
Dr. Clark supposes, or that the whale spoken of
by Christ was a real tvhalennd not as Dr. Clark
supposes a “ship so ca led” we do not assai' ei
ther the hard-earned fame of Dr. Clark nor the
immutable principles of revealed truth. Rut C
no doubt would inslautly dash us into the abyss
ot infidelity for presuming to question such au
thority. His argumeut would stand thus—Dr.
Clark is a man of “pure” (not clear) understan
ding and Dr. Clak has opined that the animal
that tempted Eve was a monkey, ergo it was a
monkey. Dr. C|nk is a man of pure understand
ing ami Dr. Clark has affirmed that the animal
that swallowed and vomilpd up Jonah was not a
whale but a vessel, ergo it was a vessel. We
have uo patience with such minds. If they are
connected with good aud honest hearts we can
hear with them, but when they are united with
a bitter persecuting spirit they arc the objects of
our contempt.
We now present for onr C the promised tho’t.

courage tho sale of that wine iu this shop; Tariff
is too great au evil to encourage, and beside® it
is supporting aristocracy. We, sir, are true re
publicans.” This was done with a very pleas
ing aud insinu itisg manner, by the proprietor ; I
beg’d pardon, called fora bottle of sherry, which
was produced with fine rut wine glasses and a
rich cut decanter, and if we should choose to rack
it off, ice and a wine cooler, till in style, yet no
aristocracy was allowed. While we sat there,
a number of strangers came iu, all strangers to
me, fet they seemed men of business, all in a
buzz; very few called for any thing, yet they
were amply provided for. While we were en
gaged in sweetening our bottle, I inquired of my
friend’s s.on life meaning of this freedom. He
explained U thus: “We come hero and pay for
a bottle of w hat not—take a glass with, or with
out a fricud--the bottlo is labelled so a man
knows his own, and it remains until he calls a-
gain.” Finding our bottle pretty well sweetened
we got up to go, jvheu / gave the proprietor a V,

THE WHY.
There’s nothing done, but the-e 4 s a reason for
it, if a man could find it.—Cupid's whirling.
Mr. Printer—Be so good as to publish this ;
and what then ? why. collect your debts’ turn all
your “devils” loose, throw your type out at the
window for the hoys to make dumps with, send
your Press, the “Press” the second ark, to the
uearest sea-port to make ballast for the Colliers ;
and go yourself to making corn. Let Phrenolo
gy that modern science, the third ark. step bold
ly forward in the great grand march of intellec
tual science, and c aim the ascendency. Why
sir, see the vast saving of that filthy descriptive,
black ink; tile great saving of paper, and of timo
iu settiug up such foolish matter as now-a-days,
cum iers the mail bag. Rut. sir. this must first
be done, without any equivocation or menial re
servation; Alan must be shaved; 1 don’t mean
as you usurers; but as the Pope of Rome does
the Cardinals; every lock of hair must be com
pletely taken off the pate. You have then only
to learn a few rules, as a man docs, that learns
a gamut of music, and you are a competent
Phrenologist, so that the moment a man enters
your proseucc, at the first sight, and that too, iu
silence, you will discover if lie answers your pur
pose. Iu fact, Alan, by a strict adherence to these
rules, will become diaphanous, so that you will
be able to see through him as a pane of glass.—
But, sir, the man who peeps so mysteriously
through others will he in danger of being over
hauled himself, that is, if others have learned the
who have heretofore, from party motives, been I gamut, and are competent to take a glance into
the most violent against them, are now deeply in- |, )S upper story Re this as it may, he should be

know, but then to lie and even to swear as you
did—well, you’ve no hump there at any rate—
that’s the tiling sir, uo conscientiousness.” Bra

grandmother, and she was clever. So away 1
goes to the hardware store aud buys me n Bram-

Chatlie,” says I, “did tho learned doctor sny any
thing about destructiveness?” No, why do you
ask ? “No matter—nothing, I must look to my
throat or—enine along charlie.” Now sir, to
shoiv that tlii4 science is as clear as mud, let eve
ry man that believes it, shave his cranium, and
like all other enthusiasts. I’ll do the same.

bject which so little concerns them, and of
are so ignorant, and the retributive justice
terested in their success, t believe there are, at
this time, not less than fourteen cottnu factories
in this State. And perhaps the present iugli
price of cotton may be attributed iu a great mea
sure to these factories. These 14 factories con
sume probably 10.000 hales of cotton annually;
they emplov say 700 persons—who if not so em
ployed would he engaged in agriculture, and
would produce 2 000 hales cotton; to support
these 700 persons, and the necessary horses &c.
teqtiires a provision crop equal to 4,000 bales
cotton; in these factories half a million of capital
is employed, which would otherwise he invested
in land and negroes, anti would produce at least
1,000 bales—making in all 17,000 br.les, which
may be said to be taken from the cotton crop of
Georgia. As the other southern States are also
beginning to manufacture, they plso produce less
ofthe raw material for exportation than they
otherwise v ould ; hence the production has been
kept down, and the price kept up. The new im
petus that has been given to rail road enterprises
too, within the last year, has also co-operated
with the manufacturers in drawing capital and
labor from cotton growing and giving it another
direction.
By the by, the Rail Road from Augusta hither
is a common topic of conversation, and excites
high hopes among lhe laud holders in this section.
If it is brought to this place, there is nothing to
prevent its being carried to the Tennessee or Al
abama line ! 'n which event, what effect
will it have on the future destiny of the Flint Cir
cuit. and particularly of Macon?! That city
hould open her eyes in time, and never close
them until she has contrived plans to counteract
th ■ schemes of her rivals. Taking it for granted
that the railroad from Alaeou to Savannah will be
i ted, which i see nothing to prevent. Macon
should at once set about another from there to
Columbus ; and a third, to meet tbe Augusta
road at 'theus.
Athens stands high for salubrity of climate;—
ofietv is good ; and the advantages of a literary
’duration are pre-eminent. I hose who have
hoys to educate, .hould hj all means fetch them
here, in preference to sending them out of the
-riate. The expense of board, washi"g, and :ui
linn, per annum, amounts to about $200 for each

bumps and veins admit—Speaking of wives—
tvbat shall we do with the women ? why, Jet
them aloue; they are troublesome things in auy
clime. The East has declared them without
souls ; we will declare them without conscience,
except now aud then when they go to a Ball,
they poke a pound or so of cake, a few almonds,
raisius &c. into their reticules--all very harmless;
but, sir. omen are very inquisitive, and 1 can
prove it,- uot by the musty fusty rules of Locke
aud Bacon, those antiquated fools, but by the aid
of Phrenology. On the hack part of the head,
a little above the hoi ow ofthe neck, you will find
a hump (there may be a vein for all I know,) I
mean a bump of flesh; that bump is the organ of
inquisitiveness. Now sir, 1 would advise all
who have the philanthropy of a VVilberforce who
“freed the blacks and slaved tho whites” to ad
vance the science o' Phrenology without loss of
time. Conceive, for a moment, a peep into a
Court House, where you see his Honor aud all
the lawyers as bare headed as a parcel of monks
iu a cell, instead of their wearing their powdered
wig. hanging down their shoulders sweating and
broiling, aud their face .ineared with flour like a
goose ready for the spit, laboring bard to crush
conscience to atoms, with all the zeal of true
ehristiiins, 1 say how these men will be detected,
who work for a elieut, right or wrong, when you
see the humps nud veins red and ready to hurst,
like a ripe pustule perhaps the hump of secre-
tiveoess as doctor Vapor calls it; perhaps.the
hump of conscientiousness and pet haps tbehuinp
of lying; ready to explode from the cranium as
the lava from a volcano. Then, and uot till then
shall we he able to look into man’s inmost soul.
Oh ! sir. what a glorious exposition of the whole
human family is Phrenology; what a saving of
prejudicial conjecture, in what true light we shall
see our friends or our pretended friend*, what a
saving of goose quills, paper and ink ! There
will be uo necessity for letters of recommen

Judge Dougherty, but so far as wc havesee‘>, not
one word has been said. It has neither been
denied, palliated, or justified, and lest it may
have been overlooked in the columns of our
humble sheet, wo copy it again, that if himself or
friends have nuvihiiig to say upon the subject,
they may have ample time to do so.
On the 1st day of Dec 1830, (see journal of
the House, page 243.) the following amendment
jvas offered by Air. Bell of Twiggs.
"And he it further enacted. That nothing iu
this act shall be so construed, as to authorise the
Governor to order the surveyors to proceed
with the survey as contemplated by thi3 act, uu-
til he shall he satisfactorily informed by the Pres
ident of the U. States, that the public force of the
U! States will not be employed to prevent said
survey and occupancy.”
In support of this .amendment. Judge Dough
erty’s vote stands recorded as an everlasting mo
nument of liis willingness to submit to “a govern
ment without limitation of powers.”
Suppose it had passed, in what attitude would
■Georgia have stood to the Federal Government?
We answer, in the menial and humiliating post
ure of supplicating that government to permit her
to do that which was reserved to her in the Con
stitution, and of making the Federal Govern
ment the sole judge of the rights and powers of
the State. Is this Federalism ? Yes, rank Fe
deralism, and in the very face of this most flag
rant acc of submission, the friends of Judge Dou
gherty are denouncing Judge Schley as a Feder
alist. If tho enemies of Judge Schley will fas
ten upon him by as good evidence, one single
act of Federalism, as strong as the case here sta
ted against Judge Dougherty, we pledge oursel
ves to abandon him.

THE THIRD CANDIDATE.
The Whigs rf RhntieTslun I have got tip a snug
little Convention of their own—and they have
followed suit with Massachusetts, in nomina ting
.Mr. Webster, as President.—The Piovidonce
Journal swears, that “if no other State in the
Union gives its vote for DANIEL WEBSTER,
Rhode F.sland wilii give him her vote,. \Yhat will
Mr. Brown, of Petersburg, say to this. What
will the Whigs of Virginia say, who arc uniform
Iv asserting that there would he no third candid
ate—that there was uo danger of carrying the el
ection into the House—and tlint they might
therefore safely run‘Judge White, as the only
Whig candidate. The fact is, that the Whigs arp
on a forlorn hope. They see. their only change of
success is to transfer the Election from the Colleg
es to '’((tigress—hut that is a desperate calculation,
indeed. The x'ery attempt will defeat itself. In
the minds of every niati who values a free and
incorruptible Election, roro than the scrambles
anti intrigues of a Congressional contest.

IMPRISONMENT FOR LIFE.
At the term of Baldwin superior court,'which
has just closed, JACKSON MAHON, a youth
about eighteen years of age. resident in Milledgc-
ville was convicted of the murder of MARTIN
SMITH, a citizen of this county. The testimo
ny against the prisoner was only circumstantial,
and if he is the perpetratir of the fata! act, his
guilt was mitigated by the fact, that his feelings
were exasperated by a combat at the moment
pending between his brother and the deceased,
who was much the stronger man. Under tbe
humane provisions of tile penal code of 1833, and
influenced in part, we believe, by this mitigating
circumstance. Judge John G. Polbill, who presid
ed, commuted the punishment of death for per
petual imprisonment aud hard labor in the Peni
tentiary. This is the first example of the opera -
tion of this part of our penal system—Fed. Un
ion.

Fire From Lightning.—During a storm on
Sunday week, the first Presbyterian Church in
Alexandria D. C. was struck by lightning and in
a few minutes was wrapped in flames “the Gaz.
says the fire spread with such rapidity from the
steeple to the roof, and from the roof to every
part of the edifice, that notwithstanding the most
praisworthy exertions were made by the fire com
panies and individuals to arrest it, there remain
ed in a lew hours nothing of the church hut its
walls. Wo understand that tho splendid Organ
belonging to the church together with most nfits
lurniture, was ether destroyed by the fire or ren
dered unfit for future service by the damage it
received in removal.
