estimated expenditure for the current year, will be eigh-

1 "iise.jucntly, that this Tariff was necessary to pay the

it ion that there will be a dcfiriency of $5,000,000 to
.lie expenses of the current year, where was the ne*
,[ y of an immediate increase of the Tariff? For the
two years, owing to the convulsions in the* commercial

re of our monied monopolies has poured upon our heads
have subsided* commerce will revive and replenish

: the duties imposed upon five only of the articles (ex*
coffee) upon which the bill operates, will add $4,-

reasoned as tyrants do their slaves, ‘the more you beat them to
the more they will love you.’* But we now ci rae to a fact,
about which a “A Citizen” has hot said a word. It is one
over which it behoves the citizens of Georgia to ponder.—
This same Whig Congress who call upon the people to bear
with patience and resignation die burdens they have impos
ed, telling diem that they are necessary to pay the expenses
of the Government, have created this necessity, in part, at
at least, by taking from the national treasury the annual in
come of $3,500,000 arising from die sale of the public lands.
They have given it to the States to pay tlieir debts, nay,
more, they have given it to satisfy the cormorant app^titds of
bloated speculators in Banks and State stocks.
After they iiave thus abstracted from the Treasury what
legitimately belongs to it, and created a vacuum, and in order
to supply it have imposed a tax which in connexion with
pre-existing duties, in the language of Mr. Calhoun, imposes
upon “the laborer’s family a tax in proportion to his means a
hundred fold greater than that of his rich neighbor;” they
turn around to the victim of their oppression, writhing under
the severity of Governmental exeactions, and with perfect
self-complacency, address him in the language of flattery,
“the poor love the government of their choice—they too are
patriots.” Yes they do love the government,, and they love
it too well to tolerate in silence, the land-bill, die extrava
gant expenditures of public money exhibited by the present
Cortgrfcss, all of which are to be paid for out of the pockets
of die |»eople.
There is one paragraph in this essay of * A Citizen/’ a
part of which is too precious to be garbled, and we therefore
give ir in the writer’s own words:
“It is also charged that Sugar, Salt and Molasses are taxed
by this bill. The truth is, they are not embraced in the bill
in any form. Would that they were, for then the tax on
them wotild be greatly reduced. If they were, they would
bear a duty of 20 j»er cent, ad volorem only. Whereas, as
they nor are taxed, sugar pays 42 per cent—Salt 100—mo
lasses as much as fifty. Mr. Dawson is blamed for doing
that which if done, would reduce the tax on these articles
more than fifty percent. Those who make this charge are
either deplorably ignorant, or most revoltingly corrupt. In
either event, not entitled to your credit, but meriting your
contempt. But say, the objectors to Mr. Dawson, lie might
have voted to make them free. Is Mr; Dawson a dictator
in Congress, that he can do all tilings ?”
We will not apply to **A Citizen” his own studied epithet
that “lie is most deplorably ignorant,or revoltingly corrupt;”
but we will ask him why he did not tell the whole truth, and
not leave it at least to be inferred that Mr. Dawson acted
directly contrary from what the records of Congress prove*
We do not, and never have biamed him for imposing the
duties now existing on fc*ugar, Salt and Molasses, but we
have charged liira with voting to retain the duties on these
articles, when he had the opportuniiy to aid in exempting
them from all duty. We know that Mr. Dawson is not a
Dictator in Congress, he lias however the control.of his own ,
vote. We mean to fix upon him its responsibility, and he i
and his colleagues may exclaim as often as they (dcase,
•would that they (“Sugar, Salt and Molasses,”) were cm- ’
braced in the bill, for then, the tax on them would be greatly
reduced;” yet, with our consent the people shall not be !
hoodwinked, but he and they shall be adjudged by tlieir i
own votes, and tlieir own acts.
The following extract from the Augusta Constitutionalist, !
gives the true history of this transaction:
“The Georgia delegation had the power to defeat the tariff 1
bill, they did not exercise it. They had the power to ex- I
elude from the articles subject to a tax of 20 per cent, tea J
and coffee, they did not exercise it. They had the power j
to exclude the articles of, sugar, salt, and molasses, a- »
mong those admitted free of duty; they did not exercise it. j
On the contrary, they exercised the power they had, in im-
poMUi» a tax of twenty per cent, on tea and.coffee, and in
contiiiU'lig the specific duties on sugar, salt, aud molasses.
I low did this happen? In the House of Representatives, Ju
ly 30, die Tarill’Bill being under consideration, Mr. Law
rence moved an amendment to the bill exempting from
dut t/ the articles of tea and coffee. Mr Clifford moved an
amendment to the amendment of Mr. Lawrence, by adding
molasses, sugar, and salt, to the articles to be addinitted free
of duty. Mark well, reader the result of these proceedings.
The question was taken first on the amendment of Mr. Clif
ford, to die amendment of Mr. Lawrence. The amend
ment of Mr. Clifford to the amendment of Mr- Lawrence, by
which sugar, salt, aud molasses, were added to tea and rof- 1
fee. as articles to be exempted frerm duty, was carried by
yeas 11-, noes H4. i*o it appears that tlic whig house of Ho- ;
presentatives agreedyo add sugar, salt, aud molasses, te tea
and coffee, as articles to be exempted from duty. But what
w.m the sequel? (In the question being taken on the aiucnd*
incut of Mr Lawrence, as amended by Mr. Cifford, which
went to exempt from duty not only lea and coffee, but molas
ses. sugar, and salt, there were for tlic amendment 57 only,
ami air a inst it 112. The amendment was r*jectt?d, end tho
whig house of representatives decided the’ tea; coffee mo
lasses, sugar, ami salt, should bo taxed. \V*re not the
members of the Georgia delegation among the 112 who
voted to tax tea, coffee, molasses, sugar, and salt? What
can ** A Citizen” say to this statement, made from the
prodeedings of tnc House/’
Our only comment on this part of “A Citizen's” essay,
shall be in his own appropriate words. “Shame, shame on
the inad zealots of party who thus wantonly trifle with the
good sense of the people of Georgia/*
We have only room at this time to notice one other re
mark of this writer. To satisfy the poor man that Mr. Daw
son and his colleagues, who voted for this duty on Coffee,
have done him right good service, and have retleemed one
at least of their pledges, the writer says :
“It is said that this duty on coffee will increase the price
of the article. This is a mistake. The supply of coffee is
and w ill be greater thani the consumption; anil the grifwers
of coffee, can and will »£ll it at reduced prices—that is they
will pay the duty * Besides, the increased consumption in
our own country, by leason of xlie constantly angmenting
population will keep down the price. Kathcr than not sell
the coffee growers will pay the duty, and still realize a
profit.” -
Tlic position that the supply of coffee is and will be great
er than the consumption, as it comes ex cathedra may be
true, but really, as we know not on what evidence it rests,
and a» we do not belong to the writer’s political failh, we
must be excused, if we do not give credence to this article of
his creed. The other position, that “the increased consump
tion will keep dow'n the price,” may be \Vhiggery, for it is
a novel idea, and sets at defiance all the laws of political
economy and of common sense, yet, the obtuseness of our
intellectual vision, will not enable us to see how such an ef
fect cau be produced by such a cause. Whiggery ir will be
admitted, can accomplish wonders. If it can effect this ob
ject, the South-at least will readily promote it, for if increas
ed consumption will keep down the price of an article, her
cotton Will riser not in proportion to the consumption, but to
the production—and the more she can r/rake and the less
that is consumed, the richer she will become.
We close this pirtial and hasty review of the essay, with
the advice wliidi we hope the writer will take in kindness,
that when hfe reads his political opponents his next lecture,
upon the courtesies of discussion, fliat he will ‘ first take the
beam out of bis own rye, and then lie will be able to see the
mote in his neighbor’s eye/*
The Whig Tress, wc perceive, are publishing and puff»
ingMr. Meriwether's letters to the Constitutionalist; but,
with their usual policy, keep back the remarks of that print
which railed forth the letters and its comments npoi them.
If our readers have any curiosity to see d member of Con
gress regularly used up, his aigoments “knocked into’ a
cocked hat/* we beg them to read the articles of the Consti'
tutionalist, in reply to Mr. Meriwether. The Hon. gentle
man flounders like a horse iu the mire; but the more he
flounders the c!eej>er he goes.
We congratulate the country, that the Senate have strick.
en out of tlic Tariff Bill, Tea and Coflee, and those articles
will, as heretofore, be exempt from duty. The vole stood
30 to 10. Mr. Cuthbert against the Tax. Mr. Berrien for il.
The drinkers of Coffee will not soon forget Mr. Dawson’s
and his colleague’s vote to tax them 2 cents on every pound
of Coffee.

T# Win. t®sby Uawnon, sf <*r« cnc:
Many a time and oft, Billy, have you and myself thread
ed tlic beautiful woods of OId Greene, and gathered mus-
codines and picked huck/rUrrics,—ar\d frequently have we
of a night, when Heaven was shining bright above ue. whis
tled up our dogs and went a cooning and /wssuming.—
Then, Billy, you were a pure and u ncorrupted politician—
and it did me good to hear you talk about State Rights and
the Constitution. 0, you can t tell how I liked you, when
sitting upon some old log, you used to say, and point out to
me. how opposition to a United States Bank was af un
do mental principle in the creed of a Stax Rights Man—
but Billy, times have changed with you, and you have gone
over to the dead Monster; and forgot the good old lessons
you loved to teach roe.
One‘false step Billy, makes way for another, urttil w-e get
so entangled in the brush-heap of error, that w’£ cant’t find
our way out. In this Extra Congress, when Mr. Payne, of
Alabama was telling the House that the “one hour rule” of
Bot W arren was a violation of the Constitution, because it
“abridged the freedom of speech,” you, Billy, so far forgot
yourself as to get up and inquire, whether the remarks of
Mr. Payne w’Cre in order, “especially as coming from Ala
bama, where minorities had recently been proscribed, by
passing the general ticket law.” Didn’t you knote Billy,
that the general ticket law prevailed in Georgia, at the very
inne you was trying to hurt Mr. Payne’s feelings, by tel
ling him that young Alabama, like old Georgia, has a gener
al ticket law ? I guess you did. But then Billy, didn't you
feel mighty cheap when Mr. Payne looked liaid at the
Speaker, and replied:
“£ir, upon what authority is that inquiry made? What
right lias the gentleman from Georgia to allude to the inter
nal policy of Alabama ? Has he been invested with author
ity to supervise her policy or her Representatives ? No,
sir; and let me tell the gendeinan, that that proud and pat
riotic State would spurn and despise his intermeddling in
her policy, ds I do note, upon this floor.”
Phis dignified rebuke was hard to swallow Billyr—I know
it was. But it wa9 much harder Billy, when Mr. Chapman
got up and asked Mr. Payne to tell you “to take the mote
out of your own eye.” Old hunter as I ain Billy, this would
have made me squat. But what Payne replied to Chapman
would have made me feel a heap worse—it would have
made me feel like the little end of nothing sharpened.—
Payne replied—*
“No, sir. If there was a beam in his eye, (meaning your
eye Billy) I could not expect the gentleina'i to reino\e it—
but with the internal policy of Georgia 1 have nothing to do.”
Didn’t voU feel bad all over, Billy ? I guess you did.—
Good bye, Billy—I can’t go a ’cooning with you any more.
OLD GREENE.
FOR THE MACON TELEGRAPH.
Messrs. Editors:—Permit me to address a few words of
advice to the “use to was” Harrison and Tyler party ; but
they are so changeable in tlieir name of late, I run at a loss
to know.what kind of a name to give them; they have chan
ged tlieir caption three times in as many months. First it
was Harrison and Tyler, next the Whig, and now the Stale
Rights Party. AV hat are all these changes of names, hues
anti shades of opinion for, but to gull tlie honest ptoplfe, and
catch tlieir votes for the benefit of those who are seeking fiir
office—and when one of these old coons gets hold of one, the
devil couldn’t choak liiin off’. It appears that Mr. Duwsou
is determined not to resign his seat in Congtess, until he
knows whether the people-of Georgia will permit him to oc
cupy the gubernatorial chair. II is whole soul appears bent
on office, w ithout any regard for the interest of the people,
which his late conduct during the extra session of Congress
proves, in his voting to tax the people of Georgia 20 per cent,
on Tea, Coffee, Sugar, Molasses, Iron, fnilt, and Negro
Blankets—and as Billy is determihed to Jiold one office, and
more if he can get them, I would recommend, especially for
his benefit, that his friends should immediately import one
of James Donnegee’s Patent Whig Condensers, recently in
vented by the Whig Collector of the Port of New Haven; a
great Yankee invention; a most ingenious and complicated
machine. It possesses the power of squeezing three Whigs
into one office, or one Whig into three offices. With this
machine Mr. Dawson can accomplish wonders for the relief
ol tlie people aud accommodate all his friends, by increasing
the salaries of each office, and squeezing three Whigs into
one, and himself into as many as the elasticity of his con
science will allow. Tlie machine is not very costly, but re
quires a good deal of affopiiuu humbug to make it work
well.

It has been whispered at the Capitolian Jove, that upon

War Department. It is also surmised, that in the event of
flic Don-conlirimiion of Everett, George M. Troup will
be strongly solicited lo go to the Court of St. James. The
nomination of the former gentleman, it is said, was merely a
proptiatory sacrifice to the political main* of the departed
II AltmsoN, which the peculiar position of President Tyler
induced him to make. With such men in his Cabinet, and
such a Representative at St. Janies, Mr. Tyler would be en

THE CULTURE OF SILK.
The territorial extent of the Venetian Slates is about half
that of New York, and their population is little more than
four millions ; ye! they have exjmrted upwards of six millions
pounds of manufactured silk in a single year. In a single
year the United States imported a quantity of tlie same arti
cle, valued at twenty three millions, while the currency was
deranged, and the treasury in very serious, and apparently
inextricable difficulty. Yet a large portion of our soil and
our climate is as well adapted to the culture of the articles
as those of Lombardy.
Speculation checked the culture of silk in this country in-
its infancy. At first it produced a great excitement, of which
certain speculators took advantage to monopolise the trade
in Mulberry trees. Tlie extravagant excitement equalled
the famous merino sheep mania, aud the business ended in
failure and disappointment, dissatisfaction aud discourage
ment. Good, however, grew out of evil. Many who had
extensively planted the Monts Mallirau/is, and were en
abled to sell them, betook themselves to feeding silk worms.
Great quantities of Cocoons have been produced this very
year in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Massachu
setts and Connecticut, and, no doubt, there would have
been more if there had been a market for them, and if they
could have been readily manufactured. Many of the expe
riments above alluded to, howejrer, have failed. The art
of producing silk, in an available state, requires much care
and experience. When its production first bceaffie an ob
ject of attention, scarcely a man in the United States knew
anything about breeding or management of silk worms. The
choice of eggs, and still irr hatching them, are matters ol
primary importance. Some bought tlieir egg.<at a distance,
and brought them home in small boxes or bottles, where fer
mentation and want of air deprived thetn of vitality, or, at
least, injured them. They ought to be transported it) a cold
season mid kept in a cool and dry place, ami they should
then be exposed to a higher temperature, gradually. Bad
construction of rooms, imperfect ventilation, wet or spoiled
mulberry leaves, and fermentation of the remnant ol food,
generate diseases in tlie worms and frustrate tlie hopes
lounded on their labor.—Experience will, no doubt, enable
American cultivators to overcome these and all other diffi
culties.
The crop of leaves yielded by an acre of trees in hedge
rows is about fifteen thousand pounds, the' first, and twice
as much the following years. Fifteen hundred j*oumls are
consumed by tlie worms produced from an ounce of eggs,
and these will spin eighty pound* of cocoons. At this rate,
eight hundred ponnds ofcocoons will be the produce of an
acre. Tne cocoons are worth, nt the very least, thirty cents
a pound, which gives a profit of two hundred 1 ami forty dol
lars per acre. This is the lowest estimate that can be made,
in the event of success.
In producing raw silk, the expenses of labor are very
small. In a fillature of fifty reels, with fifty female spin
ners, and fifty girls to turn the haps, the women will cost
sixteen dollars a month each including their board, or eight
hundred do'lars, and the girls five hundred dollars more.
Two men. say forty dollars ; three women, to pick cocoons,
forty-eight dollars; a superintendent, fifty dollars ;
wood or coal for fifty furnaces, at eight cents a day, one
hundred and twelve dollars. Add to this twenty dollars,
for contingent Expenses, and we have an aggregate exj ense
of #1570. The average quantity of silk produced by these
means will ht seventy pountfs a day. or a thousand pounds
a month, which is worth, at five dollars a pound, charges
deducted, eight thousand two hundred nnd thirty dollars.
A bushel of cocoons will yields pound of silk. The co
coons are worth three dollars a bushel. At this rate, nine
teen hundred and sixty bushels of cocoons will be worth
five thousand eight hundred and eighty dollars. Thus
there will be a nett profit of two thousand three hundred and
fifty dollars a month, on an establishment of fifty reels. Be
sides this country can produce two or three crops of co
coons a year, which neither France nor Italy can do. We
can obtain wood, too, and coal, at moderate cost, so thht, all
things considered, we can compete advantageously with
furoign eilk growers.

More of the Robbery.—=The Richmond. (Ya.) Star says,
a private letter was received in town from Danville, stating
that tlie Teller, (the second Teller we believe) has bet*n ar
rested on charge of robbing the Bank. The sexton was led;
it is reported, to examine the s|>ot he did by seeing the Tel
ler in that neighborhood under suspicious circumstances.
It this be all that is known against him now. yet if guilty,
more will soon come out. It appears that he did not have
charge of the keys, but was allowed to lock the vault; but it
is believed, that to effect his villainy he left the doors un
locked as they were found on the morning after the theft.
He also took the bad money, no doubt to blind the officers
into the belief that the bank had been robbed by some ig
noramus.
Strange to say, the Fanners Bank has not yt't had a word
on the subject.
Bo it seems—the robber was rrithin—not without. No
wonder that no traces could be heard of him.

The Barque Detroit which was condemned Inst season
ami laid up in our harbor, is now being fitted up for a Voy
age over the Falls. The Tenth of Beptember—the memor
able anniversary of the vistory in which she was captured
from the British—has been designated as the day on which
si e w ill be sent on her last fearful voyage, for which she is
to be furnished with a crew of live wild animals, consisting
of the larger and lesser “varments,” whose struggles with
the angry billows of the rushing rapids, it is not very hu
manely anticipated, will add interest to the novel scene.
The first attempt of this kind was made fifteen years ago
with the “Michigan,” which was fitted up ia the guise of n
“Pirate,” with terrific death’s head flag. Ac. An immense
concourse assembled from far and near to witness the ex
pected plunge but from want of knowledge of the channel,
and consequent and defective arrangement she went to pie
ces before reaching the brink ofthe precipice, disappointing
tlie excited lookers on. Another vessel was, we believe
subsequently attempted to be sent over without much noise
being made about it, and we do nut know how the enter
prise turned out.
The present affair promises to fie an interesting one to
those who have a curiosity for such spectacles. The once
staunch and noble vessel which bcie the red cross flag'ofthe
brave Barclay throught the perillous fi"ht, now after a lapse
of more than a quarter of a century, is destined to sulk a .
mid the thunders of Niagara—a fitting end for tlie proud
war ship, whose worn and battered hull should not be left
to rot inglorioUsly amidst the lumber of a dockyard. The
sublime sentiment ofthe powerful stanza of Holmes, writ
ten w ith reference to the glorious old ship Ctmstitutioti. may
be almost literally illustrated in the rushing exit of the
doomed vessel: •
“Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every thread bare irail,
And give her to the God o r Storms,
The lightning aud the gail!”

i chid about four months old was found in the woods

mosquitoes, nnd other insects, and died shortly alter it was
found. On the Hill inst., a child was missing in Greenwich,
twenty four miles distant. The body of the child found
lear Milan was disinterred and recognized as the missing

her Mary M. Godfrey, was arrested for the murder, to
gether with a mail by the name of Jonathan (’ole, supposed
other ofthe child. After examination, both w t re commit

that Cole took the child from Greenw ich on the
1st of August, and sufficient evidence was given to show lhat

“ The dead Nrfdy ofthe child was produced in Fburt and
recognised by the mother as her ciiild, after it had been
.cl to be hers by other witnesses. She was much affec
ted with the appearance ofthe roi|*«e nt lirst, not expecting
ee it, as w as Cole also. She hesitated for some t i me to
answer any question as to the identity ol her child, hut. at
last when under oath, the force of conscience and the pic-
sence of the corpse fell before her, she confessed it w as her
i-hild, and recognized the few articles of cloatliing with it
as having been hers.”

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PERSON OP JEtfUS
CHRIST.
As it wfas <ound in en ancient manuscript sent by Publius
Lerftulus, President of Judea, to the Seriate of Rome :
There lives at lids time in Judfca, a man of singular char
acter, whose name is Jesus Christ The barbarians esteem
him a prophet, but his followers adore him as the immediate
offspring of die immortal God. He ti indowed with such
unparalleled virtue a# to call back the dead from their
graves, ami to heal e’vcfy kind of diseases with a word or
touch. His person is tall and elegantly shaped.—his aspect
amiable, reverend. 11U hair flows in those bauliful. shades
which no united colors can match, faffing iuto graceful curls
below Ids ears, agreeably couching on his shoulders, ami
parting on the crown of his head like the bead dress of the
sect of the Nazarites. Ills forehead is smooth and large, Ids
cheek without spot, of save that a lovely red ; hisntMt* and
moutH are formed with exquisite symmetry, his beard is
thick and suitable to the hair of Ids head reaching a little
below his clrin, and parting in the middle like a fork, his
eyes are bright, clear and serene. He rebukes with majes
ty, counsels with mildnesj, aud invites with the most tender
and persuasive languWe. Ilis whole address whether in
word or deed, being elegant, grave, and strictly characteris
tic of so exalted a being !, No man has seen him laugh ;
but the whole world behold him .weep frequently ; and so
persuasive are his tears from joining in sympathy with him.
He is very modest, temperate ami wise. In short, whatever
this phenomenon may turn out in th^ tyfd/he seems at pres
ent a man for excellent beauty and divu/e perieefioifr, every
way surpassing the children of men.
Isaac Sharp Rawdon is tlie name of a member of Con
gress. from the west, who wears a common iron skillet on
fiis head. Having had a quarrel with his wife, befor£, M?
left home, she seized a skillet by the handle and struck at
him; the open part ofthe skillet received his head, ami such
the force of the blow that, although a small fit, it was driveu
fairly on his h£ad, where it remained like s cap with a long
tail behind, every exertion to get it off having proved abor
tive. Mr. Rawdon came near putting out the eye of a mem
ber who sat behind him by suddenly jerking his head back,
the end of the skillet striking the honorable gentleman on the
eyebrow. Mr. Rawdon is known iri Washington by the ap
pellation of Iron Head.—.V V Sunday Atlas.

Rumor also says that Mr. Fox is about to male another

The Intelligencer argues that the conscience nnd prin
riples and oath of the President are very different things
from those of a Legislator: that the constitution may be
something to a member of Congress, who has to make
spee dies; but of no use or importance to the Executive w ho
lias only to sign bills. Why doi.t the Intelligencer hit the
Whig nail cm the head with William Charley Brest on. with
whom principles are Obsolete incumbrances, and circum
