I'arancy in Congress — We are authorize d to un-
tiuurce the name of (.1 ti. John V A andford, as a
candidate far Congress to supply the vacancy occa
sioned by the death af General John Coffee
First Monday in Nor ember. The Freemen of Geor
gia will not forget, that the first Monday in next month
is the day fixt by law for the choice of Electors ol Pre
sident and Vice President. At the same time an elec
tion will be held fur a Representative in Congress to
till tbe vacancy occasioned by the lamented death of
Gen. Coffee.
Our Electoral Ticket is now complete. The name
of Pitt IP. Milner of Monroe, is substituted for that of
janes C. Watson; and John Pauls of Pulaski, for
that of Wilson Lumpkin—who declined the nowina-
tiou.
Full returns from all the counties have been receiv
ed, from which it will appear the Union Ticket is e-
U-cted by an average majority of about 760. By com
paring tbe aggregate with that of last year, it will be
k0 en, die vote tills year is several hundred smaller to
the Union ticket than it was last year. This is owing
in port to the death of Gen. Coffee; but probably
more to the Union White men, who have deserted the
party. The Nullifiers’ ticket also, it will be seen on
the other ti mil. iia gained a few hundred from last
year’s vote. This is to be accounted for in a consid
ernblc degree, to the ticket being headed with the
name of Gen. Glascock, which deceiveu many Union
men.
We are free to eoutiss our party has lost some
thousand or two since 1834; and vve are free also, to
confess the cause. It was known from the first, that
Van Burcn would "tote heavy” at the start; but hav
ing started with him, and the party finding itself able
to carry lain, and Dick Johnson besides, it will get u-
long easy enough hereafter. Let the party, (and eve.
ry m. nii or of it,) do its duty on the first Monday in
n, xt month, mid we need not Ear i.i reaftcr. Nulli
tication alias Wkigism w.il Le so low in the mouth, it
won’t hear itself groan !
Who are the Collar men 1 they who put themselves
in the place of hones and draw their idol through the
streets of Philadelphia. They are collar men.
Who are man worshippers t They who follow Har
rison at a distance, and make the welkin ring with
their shouts. They are man-worshippers.
Who break the commaudments 1 They who make
unto themselves idols of fiesh and of bone; and who
bow dow-n and worship the work of their own hands.
Who is a hypocrite ? He who betmys bis friend for
a bribe—and joins his enemies to obtain power.
Who arc trying to deceive the people ? They who
have the name of White in their mouths, and Harri
son in their hearts.
Who call themselves Whigs ? They who would de
prive the people of their rights; and who are trying
to carry the election of President ir.l o the House of
Representatives.
Who call themselves State Rights men ? They who
contend that the President may inteirferc with • the do
mestic concerns of a State; and wl 10 would practice
a fraud upon the people by taki ng the election of
Chief Magistrate out of their handt; and placing it in
the hands of Congressmen.
WHIG PRIMER LESSONS.
Who is the first man ? He who m the- Whigs wor
ship and bow down to, even Wm. jH- Harrison.
How was the first man made I Ho was made of
Clay! and unto Clay will he return.
For what end was he made ! To serve and glorify
his creator, and to magnify him.
Who is the meekest man ? He who vvaiteth patient
ly at the gate, even Daniel Webster.
Who is the shortest man ? He who turned his coat
to climb into a chair; even Hugh L. White.
Who is the bigest man ? Hb who swallowed the
whale, (Nullification,) even John C. Calhoun.
Who is a great stumbling block? He whom we
(the Whigs) have cast among Lions, (Abolitionists,)
even Rickard M. Johnson.
Who is onr greatest stumbling block ? He who has
passed through the fiery furnace (of falsehood and de
traction,) without the smell of fire being left upon his
garments, even Martin Van Buren.
Who is the bravest man ? He who disobeyed his
instructions, even Benjamin Watkins Leigh.
Who is a tyrant ? He who slew our Goliali, (U. S.
Bank,) even Andrew Jackson.

OF THE MACON FEMALE COLLEGE.
This ceremony of Saturday last, will form the theme
of a bright page in the history of Georgia, and more
particularly of the immediate community where the
enterprise has been projected, and where the plan, de-
sgin and purpose wiil be consumated of redeeming
from long, criminal neglect, their portion ol God s las:
best work, the mind and intellectual faculties of Heav
en bestowed woman : of raising to the intended and
her capable equaiity, that Being with whom are most
sweeUy, and intimately linked MAN ’8 dearest, best, ore
sent, and eternal interests.
MACON will now occupy a proud and enviable
a station among the cities not only of Ogletiiorpe s Geor-
chartered the schooner South Boston, and proceeded
for this place where they arrived last night about one
o'clock, and from them we have received the above in
formation. The schooner Atlas is also on her way,

The above is all the intelligence we have been able
to collect at this late hour—indeed, it is sufficient to
state that there is not n life lost.—dins Con. UOth inst.

■•If The day after our last paper was if uco. we re-
eeivofi a coimiinnicatioii from JfawkinsviJlo, signed
bv u respectable number of individuals belongin'.- to
the Union party, nominating an individual as a candi
date to fill Gen. Coffee’s vacancy in Congress. From
the, lateness of the hour at which the nomination is
'name; the utter impossibility of hat iug it known iu
ell the counties before the Election, and there being
u’r.-miv another candidate nominated; we have con
e-nth:.! to suppress the communication for die present,
hs; it: publication might distract instead of uniting th*
party. We trust our friends at Hawkinsville will op
prcciutu our motives, am! acquiesce in the course we
have pursued.
It is uo disparagement to the claims of others, tha
tii.- nomination of Gen. Sanford lias generally met ue
appru.uifimi of the party; and that lie will be suj
porin', with ' a ri- t.-i iasm. His eminent qualifica
tions atid public services present strong claims to the
affections of the |icoplc.
The Russian nobles, (we arc told by travelers,)
jonetiines by way of past time, build splendid palace.-
of ice—with ice furniture, and ice decorations !—
These palaces look brilliant and beautiful for a night >
but the projectors tremble ill the midst of their glee,
lest tomorrow's situ should dissolve their fairy castles.
So with the Whigs and Nullifies: Their fabrications
are as fair to the eye and as frail as are the ice pala
ces of tbe Russian lords. Like their prototypes, the
ivliigs dread the daylight; for the bright sun of truth
is equally destructive of their works. Like the ice
palaces aforesaid, lli existence of this | arty is a for
red state, supported by falsehood and prolonged by
misrepresentation; its prospect of success depending
altogether upon its adroitness in deceiving the people.
The Whigs know that White can never be Presi
dent: and yet they fraudulently use his name to ad
vance the cause of Harrison..
They know that Mr. V-n Burcn has no fellowship
"itli or for the Abolitionists, nor they for him; nnd
yet they accuse him of Abolitionism, and of bo: g the
candidate of the Abolitionists.
Fabricating and circulating falsehoods against 5Ir.
\ nn Buren and his supporters, characterise their mode
of warfare, nnd constitute the' chief employment of
their pens and presses. As soon as one falsehood is
detected and nailed to the* counter, another is propa-
gated. It is unnecessary to follow them into all their
menndcrings for tbe purpose of exposing their false
hoods: the people cannot be the dupes they take
them for.
The great gains of the Whigs, the brilliant pros
pects of White, &c. &c. me nil stuff, made to help
their cause and deceive the people. Nullification lias
gone down—Whigism is about to explode—and
Whiteism will soon dissolve into thin air.
The Rev. Saxdci. J. Cassells, of Washington,
Georgia, lias accepted a call to the Presbyterian
Church in this city, and we understand will commence
his pastoral duties early in November nexj.

A writer in a late Messenger more distinguished for
his breaches of the Decalogue than for his love of
truth—in the course of his false accusations makca
the following interrogatory:'
. “Have not the floors of Congress been covered
"i! , "'."“sands of petitions breathing destruction to
*11 that is dear to us in the South? Is it treason to
•*)* that those petitions have been presented and bus-
«>ned by Van Burenites alone ?” • -** * •
Bit is not treason to say those^petitions were presen
ted and sustained by Van Burenites alone, it is false
to say so; which the writer well knew. The Jour
nal* of the last session of Congress will show, that the
fiend* of Van Buren acted uniformly against the pe
tition*, while the opposition were mostly in favor of
them. In every vote touching the slavery question,
t.ie friend* of Van Buren acted invariably with the
South. Mr. Van Boren himself gave the casting vote
°n in iiiqiortant question, in favor of Southern insti
tutions.
So far from Van Buren or his party being in favor
of the Abolitionists, we do not recollect the name of
a single individual attached to that party that sides

Tike next President.
Union White men of Georgia—This is a question
of more importance to you at this moment than any
othfc-r cl.-ws of politicians low in existence, you turned
out with uu honest zeal in the support of Judge White
because J*oU believed him to be a man whose honest
and indepei.’d2Ut republican principles marked him as
a fit and proper t *ierson to succeed the noble old Hero,
and pure Statesman Andrew Jackson. Can you now
put your hands on yOtU* heart and say that he is the
same man he was, w'.heJi you- first declared for him—
has he not deserted entirely the best adminirtratiou
that has directed the affairs of this government since
the days of Washington ami* Jefferson. Up to the last
Congress he has strenuously advocated the measures
of Andrew Jackson, nnd the rep ublican party, but the
period of the last Congress was ai.‘ unfortunate period
with Judge White—the republican pgurty and the prin
ciples of the administration had no ci.arms for him ;
tile whole man is at once, changed, transL°misd into a
figure a* dark as the shades of Federalism, n* .'lidcous
as nullification, as delusive as the false glare fil *kmk

hopes and all our expectation, they do, mid William
H. Harrison, for lie is the man which the nullifiers
would exalt, is elected President, a long tart:well to all

It cannot be disguised that the contest has now set-
down between Harrison and Van Buren, and the mil
liners openly avow tkat they prefer Harrison, a strong
. and violent abolitionist to Van Buren. And having
— ! pretended to be in favor of White all along, only to

! plays that this wonderful moss of genius possess as in
: no character are they so resplendantly triumphant

! da y, in visiting an old friend of mine, who tiow keeps
; a little Confectionary and cookery. A number of
| gentlemen having returned from tne play house at a
late hour of the night called upon him for some re-
fre shinents, whereupon a table was directly spread,
an-d viands of the first chop speedily produced, consis
ting of a fine stuffed Muscovie duck, Turkiy a id
rousted partridge, (a fare enough to make a Bishop
smack lus mouth.) * The company enjoyed the same
w’ith fine appetite and great glee, a little Chainpaigne
washed down the good feast and retired highly satisfied
at their repast. But although all were Sited, yet a
remnant was left, when a second company entered to
claim food, when lo and behold a tnrdy old country
man spoke aloud, landlord, 1 will thank you to give me a

T !?’’ PUBLIC ate respectfully lUiurmed tha;
Mr. Keuworthy,
The Celebrated Vcntriloquixt,
will arrive iu Mavon. and on I rid ay, 28 th October,
(to-morrow evening) offer to the citizens and public
generally, at the City Hall, an Entertainment or
his curious and amusing powers of VENTRILO-
viUISM. This is the most singularly amusing aud
surprising talent with which man hasever been gifted.
Its exercise has furnished materials for many an **auld
wife’s tale,” of earthly being holding familiar con
course with spirits of the invisible world. The iguo-
.rant ard superstitious in ancient as well as modern
t:me* have not hesitated to assign to it at once the a-
geucy of the Black Prince himself. The adroit anu
needy professor of his ta|eut in times past, filled hi-
pockets at the expense of the world’s credulity, by
pretending to call to his aid the powerful auxilliarv of
“Charm, Lamen, Stgel, Talisman, Spell, Chrystal.
Penticle, Magic-Mirror and Geomantic Figure.”—
Philosophy has offered her store of conjectures, and
Mr, K now purposes illustrating, by giving,
1st. A Lecture on Ventriloquism.
