ry citizen, in spite of party zeal, will stare you in the face;
and no parent*, whilst feeding their darling babe* or throw
ing the frail covering over them for the night, will fail to ex--
claim—this man Dawson voted tt> tax tbe very blanket that

*hai men wh^ war willing ix> give $25,000 of the people’s
money for nothing, and yet fasten upon this same people a
hefcvy tariff on the necessaries of life to pay that gift ? Are
you so rich as that—or can your children live on less, that
you may give away their little pittance to those who already
live in splendor f But, citizens, this is not all that Wm. C.

your liberties and grind you to the dust ? He has voted for
a National Bank—to create a National Debt, that will hang
like a thunder cloud for year* over your heads, that you
may feel more agonizingly the oppressive tariff. He has
voted to establish a Bank in your State, against your will.
Notice that, people of Georgia—A man wishing to be your
Governor, scouts your wills, and scatters to the wind the
doctrine of State Rights, and would force an institution down
your throats, whether you would or not. Ilis whole conduct
absolutely resolves itself into this—It is the will of Con-
grexx. and yeni shall not resist her autliority—It is the com
mand of a master, ami you shall obey. He has voted not
only to destroy your State Rights principles, ami convert
you into servile*—but in that debased condition, be voted to
tax the very food on which you live. lie has not only will
ed to make you slaves and tax your food, but would again
have the Sheriff’s hammer to ring in your ears to liquidate
the twenty or twenty-five thousand law suits which he
would palm upon the honest, industrious, and hatd-working
citizen, to whom the present Governor nobly and generously
desired to extend a helping hand to save. Verily, Wm. C.
DlVrson, you hare sowed the wind, and shall reap the
whirlwind. RUTLAND.

Keep It before tbe people.
Messrs. Editors:—What do you think of Mr. Squire
Dawson now ? He has been a great favorite, I know, with
one of you at least. He has openly declared, in his place ;n
Congress, for himself and colleagues, that they, by their vote
in favor of the Tariff bill, sacrificed tlie interests of Georgia,
and their own inclinations. To whnt and for what purpose
were the interests of the people of Georgia sacrificed ?
How dared her representatives sacrifice her interests ?
They were sent to Congress to protect and defend them.—
What were they sacrificed to ? To preserve the Union of
the Northern and Southern Whigs, without which Henry
Clay cannot be elected President of the United States, nor
Mr. Dawson be run on the Clay ticket as Vice-President.
It is yet to be seen, whether the freemen of Georgia will
let themselves be sold, like cattle to the butcher. Do the
poor men of Georgia know how much they are to be cheat
ed out of the little comforts now left by the tax-gatherers, to
their wives and children, and this humane law passed by
the Georgia delegation—for, had they voted against it, it
would have been lost—They shall be sold, yes, that they
shall. The poor man now pays fifty cents for his gallon of
molasses; when tlie law comes in force his own delegates
fastened on him, he must pay 60 cents, or rather 62} cents
Eighty cents’ worth of Salt, Sugar, Tea, and Coffee for a
dollar, and mercy knows he gets little enough now. Let tha
people remember, this was the work of their own Congres*
men, who promised relief from all their distresses—relief
from taxation is exactly what wa* meant by Tippecanoe
and Tyler too.
Remember them boy* and their understrapper*,—the
would-not-if-we-could folks, when you hand in your tickets
on tl»e first Monday in October.
Yes, Freemen of Georgia, keep these things constantly in
mind—let no party notion, previously expressed, prevent
calm and deliberate reflection. Let not zeal obscure your
judgements, subvert your liberties, and paralyze your inter
ests. Remember that W"m. C. Dawson, who now aspires to
be your Governor, ha* voted to lay on your shoulders a
heavier burden than yon yet have borne. Are you not now
sufficiently oppressed by the hardness of the times—with
the scarcity of money ? Does not the Sheriff’s hammer al
ready ring loud enough in your ears ? Have you more mo
ney now than heretofore, that Wm. C. Dawson should vote
to impose a heavy tariff on the very necessaries of life T Is
it easier for you now to live, that you pay nearly a fifth
more for your coffee and your tea, your salt, your sugar and
molasses T Are the comforts of life so plentiful, that you

FOR THE MACON* TELEGRAPH.
Messrs Editors.—It is exceedingly painful to me, again to
apjiear before the public,connected with an affuir so unpleas
ant as that of Mr. Reuben E. Brown ; but my obligations to
the Methodist Episcopal Church, preseut me with no alter*
native. My own character, it is true, has been assailed by
Mr. Brown ; but that should never have forced me into iny
present situation, had other things of much more importance,
been omitted by Mr. B.
In your paper of the 12th inst., Mr. B. charges me with
being guilty of slander, falsehood, Ac., in a publication for
ced upon me by his conduct—he had been expelled from the
ministry, and yet continued to appear as a minister, and
preach in defiance of the authorities of the Church ; and with
it circulated falsehoods against the Conference, Ac.; under
these circumstances, I could do nothing less than inform the
public of the facts connected with Mr. B’s. case—I certainly
did nothing more. As to my publication containing slander
and falsehood, I refer you to the publication and to the an
nexed certificates, which can be thrown into the form of af
fidavits, if that be necessary. So far from there being any
thing like slander or falsehood in my publication, you will
perceive perhaps, that I was to blame for omitting so much
truth; my object, however, was to perform an unpleasant
duty as mildly as possible.
Mr. Brown complains in his publication, that it is not true
that the charges prefered against him, were proved upon
him, before a committee of preachers. The charges were—
"drinking to excess. A using pcolane and obscene language.”
To prove these charges, the committee had before them as a
witness, a gentleman of unimpeachable religious character;
Mr. II. did not think proper to attend the trial or examina
tion. I present the certificate of this Committee;—
We, the Committee of ministers, liy whom R. E. Brown
was suspended from preaching, during the spring of last
year, do certify, that from the testimony before us. we be
lieve him to have been guilty of “drinking to excess, and of
indulging in the use of profane and obscene language, with
other unchristian conduct; further, that this testimony was
from a man of high standing, both as a gentleman and a
Christian, and that he i* of Mr. Brown's political party;
further, that we know no reason for Mr. B's. not attending
the trial or examination before us, and we proceeded in the
examination according to the discipline qf the Church. We

How much truth there is in the assertion of Mr. B., '-tha
there was nr* a single witness to prove a single charge,’ I
leave to the public to determine.
Mr. B. eomplains further, ami says, "again, Mr. Payne
says these charges were all proved before the Quarterly
Conference. I will not say that Mr. Payne knowingly as
serts what is not true, but justice to rnyseif, compels me to
say, that at the Conference, not a single witness nor a parti
cle of testimony was introduced, unless it was when their
doors were closed, and I was excluded.’’ If there is as much
or more of truth in this assertion than in the former, I sub
mit to the public to determine. I give below the certificate
of some of tlie members ol the Conference; (all would have
been procured if it had been practicable:)
“We, the members of the third Quarterly Conference, of
he Perry Circuit, held at Hayneville, in July, 1840, at which
time and place R. E. Brown was expelled from the minis
try, do certify, that the above charges (drinking to excess
and the use of profane and obscene language,) were in proof
lie lure us, with others ; that they we e certified to in wri
ting. by a witness of unimpeachable character, both as a gen
tleman and a Christian; that they were read in the presence
of Mr. 11., and he allow ed to reply to or disprove them; fur
ther, that lie wasexpeBed by a majority of not less than three
or four, and that he expressed himself satisfied and justly

Mr. B. was compelled to know that these facts could be
proved if any one would take the least trouble to do so. I
regret that he forced that task on me.
Mr. B. continues to complain, and says : "but again, there
is another error which more grossly shews the treachery of
Mr. Payne’a memory. He says, "at the fourth Quarterly
Conference, all my friends voted against me,” and hence
that my expnlsion was by a unanimoua vote.” It Will be
underttood that when Mr. B. was expelled at the third
Quarterly Conference, he signified his wish to appeal to the
Annual Conference, so it was journalized. Between the
times of holding the third and the fourth Qurterly Conferen
ces, Mr. B. withdrew his appeal and submitted the ease to
the fourth Quarterly Conference—that Conference acted
upon bis case and were unanimout in their concurrence
with the action of tbe preceding Conference. Mr. B. states
that he has a letter from me communicating the result, in
which lie says, "the vote was about the same as at the other
meeting of Conferrence. Mr. B. has no such letter from
me communicating any such fact; that part of the letter which
relates to his expulsion is in these words: "I did all for you
that I could by explanation and otherwise, there teat not
one vote for you—a result, you tee, entirely different from
the former.”
I also present the certificate of the Secretary of the fourth
Quarterly Conference, which will ihow the final action of
the Conferences on Mr. B’s. ease.
"I do certify that X was the Secretary of the fourth Quar
terly Conference, for the Perry Circuit, at Fortvalley, in
the year 1840, at which time and place the case of Reuben
E. Biown was finally decided, under an application to be
restored to the ministry. It was my duty to count the votes
when taken, and I certify that there was not one vote for
him in aaid Conference. And further, that from the official
document, there were thirty-four members in said Confer
ence.” THOS. W. ELLIS.
August 24tll, 1841.
I give here a certificate of some of the members of the
fourth Quarterly Conference, as to the facti contained in the
Secretary's certificate:
"We, a portion of the members of the abtve named Con
ference, do certify that the above statement strue, and that
the aaid Conference was large and respectable; further,
that we never bevd of being stated that Mr. B. did get
any vote, in said Conference, by nnv person but himself

Mr. B. complain* loudly ngninat roe. for alluding to bill*
of indiietment gainst bMl in the Ripe Her Ceort end calls
that allusion “a stab ia tbe dark, a mean ungenerous stab
would'answer better; but I will not comment upon this un
generous blow; it is unworthy the man, unworthy hie office,
and will be viewed by all as it deserve*.” Ik is very certain
by alluding to this circumstance I did bat my duty, and gave
Mr. B. a fair opportunity of explanation. Why did he not
avail himself of that opportunity, and tell the pablic all
about these indictment* 1 If X had done him uyustise, be
certainly could have shown it} Why nuoid the- troth con

nor diti my inclination prompt me to have any thing to do
with it, nor did I have; if Mr. B. was dissatisfied, he could
have had an appeal to the Quarterly Conference.
Mr. B. could not even rely on his own statements of his
ease; he knew he eouhl excite no sympathy whete he was
known; being dissatisfied with this, he endeavors to give a
political turn to his case ; he says : "but tlie question may
here be asked, what is the tecret of this opposition to mo
ot .this fixed determination, at nil hazards, to break me
down “Yes. disgraceful as it is to tlie Church, tlie truth
shall be told : the great sin which I have committed, the sin
which has occasioned all this trouble, is my politics." The
facts will show that Mr. B. is equally unfortunate in this
respect as he has beer, in his other statements; he shall find
no !.hrUer here. Mr. B's. political party is large and res*
pcctable, and shall not be thus imposed upon. To show
that nothing of a political character had any thing to do w ith
Mr. B's trial, I produce the certificate of C. II. Hire, Esq.>
the Clerk of the third Quarterly Conference, and a member
of the name political party with Mr. B.
“The undersigned hereby certifies, that he was a memlier
of the Conference by which R. E. Brown was expelled from
the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal Church; that on
the trial, evidence entitled to full credit, was introduced, by
which it was proven that Mr. B. had been guilty of drinking,
of profanity anil obtrene language. It was also proven that
he had said that Court should not be held in the Court-
House, in Ferry, for twelve months. That a dollars worth
of property should not be sold before the Court-House
without the consent of the parties. And thnt the people of
his District and two adjoining Districts, would help him to
padule or duck, any man that would offer to sell or bid for
property. Also, that he said he had written to Judge King
that the people did not want a judge, and that if he came
there to preside, that he would take him by the arm and
lead him out of the Court-House. It was also proven that
Mr. B. offered to bet a hundred dotlarf, a korte or a suit
of clothe*, that he would carry these threats into execution ;
and also, that his business to town, on that day, was tognard
a, man again*! the execution of the taw. All of this was
testified to have taken place in Ferry, on one and the same
day— It was all heard by Mr. Brown, be being pretent and
allowed to reply to or disprove the allegations. 1 arted as
Secretary of said Conference, and am sure that the majority
against Iiim, on the finsl vote, was more than one. I also
have the best reasons for believing that his charges against
said Conference, that the trial and vote were influenced by
party prejudice against hint, to be a bate and tlanderou*
falsehood ; first, because the witness who testified was of
the same political party with Mr. Brown; and, secondly, be
cause all the active friends and advocates that he had, were
his jiolitieal opponent*. Further. I do not believe thnt
from his poli/iral parly, in the Conference (with which par
ty I am identified.) that he got more than two votes, and
even that is doubtful; and I am sute thatfour-ffth* of the
votes that he did get, were from his political npiHinrr.lt.—
When expelled, the result was made known to him in the
presence of Conference, and he ex pressed himself satisfied,
and stated that had be been a member, thnt he would have
douc as they had. The same satisfaction he expressed to
me, subsequently, in a private conversation, approving those
who had been active in the prosecution against liirn.”
A ng. 24th, 1811. CHARLES H. RICE.
Ifl was disposed so to do, certainly nothing in this rase
requires that I should rominent upon any point of it. Mr. B.
is entitled to no sympathy from any quarter, he has cut him
self off from erery thing of that sort by his own wicked con
duct. I think I have been successful in this communication
in establishing the correctnesa of the course the Church and
myself have been bound to pursue in relation to Mr. H.,
that done, my object shall have been accomplished, and for
the present, I have nothing more to add.

TAXATION.
The new tariff bill has passed the House of Represents
lives, and will doubtless pass the t>enate. It levies tipon-
the people of the United States a tax of about eight million
of dollars annually. This lsrge amount, the people will pay,
and most of them without knowing it, or, in other words,
without knowing why or to whom they pay it. They will
know that the money goes out of their pockeLs, but unless
they keep this law constantly in menory, they will not dream
that it goes into the coffers of the government. They will
find that for some resson the prices of their tea and coffee,
and other articlea of consumption, are raised twenty per
cent, but they will be very likely to ascribe it to any thing
but the real cause, and tn suppose that they pay it to the
merchant instead of tire government.
Now we moke no objections to the amount of this tax; it
inay be necessary, or it may not. We state facts which it
appears tons are worthyof serions attention. Ought the
people to pay taxes without knowing it? Ought they to be
thus inveigled out of their money? Is it an honest, manly
nnd straight forward way of doins business?—Weknow tlie
reasons that are urged in favor ol'this mode of taxation. It
is more convenient, the people do not perceive it, and there
fore will not grumble at it as they would at a tax gatherer.
In answer to all this, we say that we have more confi*
deuce in the patriotism of the American people than to be
lieve that they would ever resist the payment ol just taxes
sufficient to support their government. Besides they ought
o realise the necessity of paying such taxes; they ought con-
sta tly to know an, I feel that it is right to pay, and that they
do pay them. Government lias a right to the money, and
the -people ought to knoxy that they pay it. This woatld
make them more watchful, and the government more econ
omical.—iVew York Sun.

In this instance of mortality, is fully exemplified the truth
of the sentiment, "death love* a shining mark''. Youth,
beauty, amiability and intelligence, were characteristic* of
the life of the subject of this obituary notice. The writer
fears doing injustice to her memory, by attempting a minute
description of the excellence, which won a large share of
general approbation, and secured the unbounded confidence
an J affection, of tbose who knew her intimately. In the re
lations of daughter, sister and wife, ahe furnished an exam
ple of gentleness, prudence, devotion and constaig-y, seldom
equalled. During a protracted and wasting disease, she
exhibited an unusual degree of patience and cheerfulness —
Aa her worldly prospects gradually faded, the wa* enabled
to fix the eye of her faith on that "bright, and morning
star," which illumines the “valley of the shadow of death,”
with unearthly splendor. Strong and tender, as were the
ties which bound her to this life, they were so gently loos
ened bv the power of divine grace, that she desired to "de
part, and to be with Christ." On the day previous to her
death, she received the sacrament of tlie Lord’s Supper,
and on hi» holy day of Rest, with a composure unshaken by-
doubt or fear, and undisturbed by tbe irrepressible grief of
surrounding friends—she met the “king of terrors” as a con-
queror. There is a consolation associated with the remem
brance of her death bed scene, which soothes the anguish of
bereavement, aud invites the mourning heart to rejoice.
“Weep not over hopes departed.
“Seek not here the scattered band ;
"Soul of mine, rouse up. look forward,
"To the glorious spiritland.”
Attention, Floyd Rifle*.
