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.” the Montgomery Advertiser seems to indulge 10 on css of joy at the success of the Democratic Republican pnrty, in the elections of Alabama, a* fir as hoard from.

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.

So in I goes with my friend’s sou; called fora bold - cha teau margaux; when I was told “We do not en 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, which lie took and in giviu*r mo change, handed me my identical 7 shilling pi“-ce. saying at the same time, “My elerk look this of a gentleman this morning, for a dollar, and as I undertand, you sir, are au Englishman born, and may choose to receive it again for the same, though it is per haps worth more, os bullion.” Oh me! how I felt for my young friend, who cock’d his arms a- kirnbo and looking with, a frown, took a qtud, and heaved a- sigh to “Poll of Horsley down,” whistling at the same time an Irish air, “For love or for thieving I always was itching” and out of tho store we popt.

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 ness.” "Umph, the Doctor is good authority I 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 vo. says I, Phrenology forever, that heats my grandmother, and she was clever. So away 1 goes to the hardware store aud buys me n Bram- els patent lock for my Escrutoire. “Ilnrkie 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. NO BIBLIOTHECAL.

(t rout indeed ba painful to the friends of humanity, .•Vine* the appalling consequences of the course oi ai m being pnr-u<•<) by the misguided fanatic: of North, in regard to Southern slavery. As the y U Qt3.se of population in the mere northern •‘State® ®*t neceisard. lie ignorant of the condition of slave- V *sit exists at th>‘ south, it would lie charitable, even jy* absence of proof ofthe fact, which sve are hap- W to know exists, to suppose that many who give jnteuance to their proceedings, ore guided by pure ooMat motives. But ns in every other section of ■ b’nion. there arc a few resile*., desperate entbn- • _ *tthe north, who are aspiring for power, and by rporating their abolition doctrine, into their reli- y “j" creeds, and thereby operating on the passions of '• 1 "• * . an 1 ignorant, they have succeeded in ex- money from them, to help along their diabolic mrpaic*. The fact that their interference is unne- lrv m this particular, andean do no good, should K. 7 anfficioi *ltith they 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 like Cesar's wife, above suspicion, that is, if his 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 dation—a bare look at the noddle and a yes or a uo. decides the engagement; no use for that old harkbitiug word, hypocrisy—no loug winded JUDGE DOUGHERTY A FEDERALIST. AVe laid before our readers a few weeks siuce, a vote giyen by ‘Judge Dougherty iu 1830’ upon an amendment offered by Mr. Bell of Twiggs, to the hill theti progressing for the survey and distribution of tho Cherokee country, containing principleswholly subversive of State Sovereign ty—principles which if recognised aud carried out by the States, would at once, place iu the hands of the Federal Government, unlimited Si undefined power. We did expect some reply from the friends of 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. That the state should not do what sbe had the 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. STAGE ACCIDENT.

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. TB.X STATE BOARDSiS 3.

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. The late Samuel Slater who spun the first cotton yarn iu the United States upon machinery constructed hv himself and was in fact the father & founder of the cotton manufacture in this countrv—has the further honor of having estab- clearest right to do under the Constitution, with ]j s hed it his own individual expense, the first out leave first had aud ohtaiued from the Federal, 3 Un d a y School in the United States.
