GOVERNOR'S ELECTION.
Returns from all tho counties have been heard
ticm On carefully adding them up. the result
is as follows t
For William Schley, 31,171
For Charles Dougherty, 128,522
Schley's majority, 02,6-19

hales received during the same time in 1834;
and of American, tho receipts have been 072,001)
•-‘gainst 6/7,000 bales. The stock of Cotton in
tins port as now estimated, appears to be about
293,000 against 230,000 at the same time last
year; and of American, separately, it amounts
to 229,000 against I99.C00; shewing au increase
in all kinds of about 63,000, and iu American of
30,000 bales.
I his week, owing chiefly to accounts received
from America, that the crop of CsMfcftu had sus
tained more or less injury from excessively wet
weather, our market opened .with au improved
feel, and altogether assumed a inure steady ap
pearance, giving us the promise of better prices;
and au advance on the lowest sales of last week
has been generally obtained—but the large quan
tity of Cotton offered for sale has checked us a-
gain, so that the utmost we can do is to resume
our Inst quotations, which are ahuudautly high,
indeed rather too high for the lower qualities of
short stapled Cotton.
!*• S,—Sept. 26—The Cotton market has
been very dull to-day, the sales only amounting
m 1200 bales, chiefly American, of which nhotri
200 have been taken for export, and the market
ngaiu closed heavily without any decided change
iu prices;

A PROCLAMATION.
CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION.
Returns have been received from all the coun
ties but one. viz: Uuion. Tho aggregate vote
ol each candidate is as follows:
Glasscock
30.992
Wilde
28,204
Jackson
30.827
Foster
28,198
Clcvolaud

" Beall
27,543
vorage majority for the
Union Con
gressional
ticket, leaving out Uuicn county, 2,827.
The vote for Governor in 1835 falls short up
wards of 1000 to wlial it was in 1833. In
year the vote was for Lumpkin 31,592
For Crawford 29.162
Lumpkin's majority in 1833 2.430
So it will be seen that Schley receives 421 less
than the Uuiou candidate iu 18413—aud Dough
erty 640 Itss than Crawfard in ’33.
There is also a still greater failing olT iu the
Congressional Election since last year. This is
owing in a great measure, ns has already beeu
shown, to the extensive rains iu the upper conn
ties on the day of Election—counties almost u
lunimoits for tho Union party. ■

An unsuccessful attempt was made on Saturday
night by some of this prisoners at Bellevue to
make their escape, by means of undermining the'
wall of the ; r prison. We understand that they
had been for some timo engaged iu this work;
which came to the knowledge of the keeper, who
kept a watch upon them, and early on monday
morning they were deseovered at work, when tho
keeper and his us'llauu very unceremoniously
entered the'r cell, and put a stop to their doings.

RULES FOR USING THE TONGUE.
The tongue is called iu the Bible, an unruly
member. Our own experience occords perfect
ly with the statement, aud observations upnu the
longue of others have satisfied usof the evil. We
think the following rules if carefully followed,
wiii he found of great u«e in taming that which
has not yet been perfectly lamed.
1, Never use your tongue in speaking any thing
but truth. The God of truth, who made the
tongue did not inteud it for any other use. It
will nut work well in falsehoods. It will run-iu-
to such inconsistencies as to detect itself. To use
this organ iu publishing falsehood, is as iucoii
gruous as the use of the eyes for hearing or the
ear for smelling.
„ , i 2. Douot usovotir tongue too much it is a kind
escutcheon. Hut finding victory still coy, auo- 0 f W uste gate, to let olT the thoughts as they col-
t!;er device it appears is now to be adopted.—
White becomes them very well—as it does all
tallies badly scared, or tetotally laid out!

left and expand tho mind, but if the waste gate
is always opcti the water will soon tuu shallow.
Many people use their tongues too much. Shut
the gate aud let the streams of thought flow in till
the mind is full, aud then you may let off with
some effect.
3. Never let the stream of passioa move the
tongue. Some people when they arc about to
put this member ip motion, hoist the wrong gate;
they let out passion instead o r reason. The tongue
then makes a great ocal of noise, disturbes the
quietude of rhe neighbors, exhausts the person’s
strength aud does no good. The whirlwind lias
ceased, but what is the benefit.
4. Look into the pond aud sec if there is wa
ter enough to move the wheel to auy purpose be
fore you open the gate; or plainly think before
you speak.
5. Never put the tongue in motiou while your
respondent has his in motion. The two streams
will meet, aud tho re-action will be so great that
you both will bespatter yourselves.
6. See that your tongue is hung true, before
you use it. Some tongues we have observed aro
so bung that they sometimes equivocate consider
ably. Let such turn the screw of conscience an
ti! the tongue move true.
7. Expect that others will r.ovc their tongues
for what you do yours. Some claim tho privi
lege of reporting all the news and charge others
not to do so. Your neighbor will not monopo-
izo this business. If you have any thing to be
lkept secret, keep it yourself.—Ohio Observer.
Reputation, Popularity, Fame.—Reputation is a
bubble upon the rapid stream of time; populari
ty, a splash in the great pool of oblivion; fnlne
itself hut a full bladder, or at best a balloon.
There is no sacrifice iu declining them, for iu es
caping these, you escape the impertinences and
the intrusions which never fail to follow in their
train.

The effect of Latiudc upon man's Religion.!-—
Tho Rev Dr. demau, formerly of Georgia,
now of Troy, New York, is a most violent aboli
tionist. In a late speech mado at au ami-slavo-
ry meeting, lie said of Southern men: "They sell
the image of Jesus in their slaves! Arc they com
petent judges in the case 1 The wise man says,
•a gift bliodetbthe eyes.’ They judge oiith the
price of human Jlc3h in their hands."
This new born zeal on tho part of the rever-
cud gentleman has called to mind some of his l*y
gone transactions, wl ieh took place while he liv
ed in Georgia. It now appears front published
documents, that while there, he owned slaves,
aud, wbnt is more, he sold them, and warranted
and defended the title of them, as slaves forever!

The Wild Horseof the Prairie. ■*
Wc have beeu favored by a friend with the ful-;
lowing extract of a letter from our former felloriy'
citizen, E. IV. B. Norland Esq. giving a descrip
tion of a-wild horse, captured for him in his na
tive wilds, which will he found peculiarly inter
esting to those of onr readers win* wish to obtain
a cross of the pure-blooded wild horse of the prai
rie.
Fort Gibson, September, 1835.
Dear Sir—Judicious breeders, aud practical'
sportsmen in the Uuitcd States, aro convinced
that a cross iu our ruuiting stock is very desira
ble. They almost invariably break down or iraiu
off at too early an age. Recourse is bad to En- ,
gland, but most of the latter importations par
take of tho Herod and Eclipso bloods aud many
of them trail through Diomcd, from whom aro
ucurly all our horses of repute. Tho value of
racer—nay, of auy blood horse, depends greatly
ou his lastingncss and to give that property is the
object. An Arabian or a Barb from the dosarts
or a thorough Turk of tho requisite form would
be most likely to Remedy tho defects in our stock
Bukpori and many other of the Euglish racers
of foreign origin, allowed Institiguess as well as
speed iu an eminentdegree. Hut lntciy the pure
foreign horses seem not to be attainable, aud
therefore some look with coufidouco ou our na^
tivo wild horses of the prairie, who aro of Barb
and Adalusian origin; aud 1 am of those who bc-
live :ho experiment should bo made, when an
animal of the requisite form aud action enu bo
procured.
A band of Osage Indians, hunting ou the head
waters of Washita, aud Blue rivers, iu May,
1831, succeeded iu capturing the gallant, gray.
Neosho, after a chase from sun rise till dark.
When hrietted, he proved so ungovernable, that
•he Indians fouud it ucccssary to keep him for
several days without food or water, in order to
render hitn manageable. In bis efforts to extri
cate himself from his confinement, hn hurt bis
head and legs badly. He was purchased hy an
officer of the post, who arrived within herd? a dis
tance of nearly two huudrd and fifty miles, much
emaciated.
—After his arrival, ho repeatedly threw every
one who dared to hack him, aud among others,
a most spleudid horseman of the Camanche tribe
of Indians, who boldly proclaimed that he ceuld
ride auy liorso living. .This was the most inter
esting feat of horsemanship I ever witnessed—
for here was the horse, in all his nalivo wildness,
mounted hy a savage not less wild, both conten
ding fur the mastery—the Indiau was at. length
hurled from his back, and the horse triumphed;
He is now, !iowc.\er, after much gentle treatment,
entirely mauageabic aud iu good condition,
Neosho is a light dapple grey, about fourteen
aud a haf hands high; his bead is bony, fine
muzzle and expanded nostrils, with a prominent
sparkling eye and pointed ear; has a flue crest
and flowing mane; long shoulder blades, well de
clining into tho sway, with fiuo high withers,
strong hack and arched loins, aud couples strong;
deep in tho brisket, fine barrel 'and beautifully
curved ribs, long arms and thighs, broad cannon
hones, with strong teudous neatly fluted, all of
the firmest texture; fine pasterns, and hoofs cup
ped aud of tho firmest huru; dock strong and sup
porting a fine coat of hair almost sweeping tlid
ground. He is peculiarly majestic iu his appear
ance, bold and clastic in all his paces, and shows
throughout, a nalivo dignity and nobility of
blood.
I have procured this uoblo animal for Tennes
see, and he may bo expected at Nashville by the
eariicst riso of the waters, for the inspection of
breeders aud connoisseurs.
