Our Congressmen wero elected through the stale last-fall, ail'd tliero is no opposition here to George Wolf, lisa regular Jackson candidate for Governor, and will not be any through the State worth speaking of. His opponent Rimer was a sori of Jackson man and will receive 'some votes of tho late administration men and anli-maton ict, but Wolf's majority will be very Inigo.

SAVANNAH, Oct. 15.1820 TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE‘ DRY CUI.TURECOMMITTEE, Sir:—Having, at-your request minutely inspected tho landgsiihject to the Dry Cul ture Contract, on the 12th ond 15th days of the month. I siibntiPtho following re- port :— Oa Air. Spalding’s plantation (here are' 275 acres of lend undo cultivation. The ditches of this portion of the Plantation are' clear andin good order. There ere 80 acres of land unoer Bank, not in cultivation.— Ot this portion the -ditches are deep'and the water sweet. The banks are ao ar ranged that fresh water is admitted atovery tide, into the ditches. The Plantation known b? the name of Ward’t is ail subject to the tide except 30 acres which ere secured by banks. Not more than two acres are under cultivation,, no part of the plantation (except about SO. sores) is kept in the condition required by the Contract. Col. Myers’plantetinn-is ell under culti vation except about 30 acres—The uitclies and drains are generally deep and clean. 1 found the land'flawed in consequence of breaks in the banks occasioned by the re-, cent extraordinary high tides,, but'lhe peo ple were engaged in getting the water off, andpreparingto mend the breaks, ’l itis will no doubt he spec-lily accomplished. Col. Jackson's plantation is nnt under cultivation except 28 acres. The Banks uf this place are generally high, and die ditches dyep widrsweet water. Of Mr. Bilbo's land about 100 acre! are under cultivation. The dilchea are. not kept sufficiently clean f found about is acres flowed from the water running over the banks, occasioned by the late liigli title. About 10 acres of land are subject to the lido at all Untes. ’ The land of MeisrrScarbrotigh -So others is subject to the flow of the tide when it is high. The banks should be raised, par ticularly die lower bank. This land has been used es a parture for Cattle dufibg the last season. Of Mr. Stiles’ plantation there atea- bout 80 or 40 acres under cultivation,the re mainder is not under cultivation. The un cultivated land has been flowed by the lete tides in consequence of a break in tho riv er bank, and the water runnig over the banka. As soon as the tides recede, the break should he repaired, wh en tho land may he kept dry. There is about 10 aeret^ir this place, adjoining Miisgrove creek which are subject to ordinary tides. I lonnd no offensive water at either of the plantations, I earnestly recommend that before die next season, the ditches and drains of die uncultivated lands should be cleaned and deepened. " Your obedient servant, PEARSON HARDEE, Inspector. From a late English paper. - poison* assignees p. Rathbone Brothere. —Mr. Pollock, in staling this case, said it was Inti his duty tu observe, that the de fendants, who were Ainerlean factors -ill Liverpool, and highly respectable, weio not ot all interested in the casej a ml only wished, 1n paying dm mm fur which they were now sued, In have the sanction of a verdict to assure them that they paid it when justly due. 'IMtey wished, by this action, to raise a question to bo determin ed by a verdict; and they had believed with e candour and firmness, in the admissions wliich they had made, winch could very much diminish the expense of obtaining suchvetdicl. This validity of a commis sion of bankruptcy was the only question to be determined ; the amount of damages would be determined out of court, by pre vious agreement. Tint tacts were theses— Jeremiah and WUHan) Thompson were subjects or this country, and had carried on business as partnais Intho wnolen 'manu facture, in some pari <if Yorkshire, for some rev*. At the end of a certain time, one ol them (Jeremiuh)went to the United States ol America, in conduct there tliut part of the busiocss of tlie firm which they hnd'hltherto transacted through servants or agents, their business being to Send tho goods which-they manufactured m York shire lo Liverpool, and make the le'.urns In cotton or other articles suited for the Liverpool market. The first question on wliich they nro'ild have to decide, nno (in wliich lie hoped tbaro was no doubt, tho 1 os it was the first cast under the new act.it could not In certain, was, whether a sub ject of England, beijig abroad, and, at tlie same lime, both tarrying on business, and contracting debts here, could 'commit an act of bankruptcy—whether a lljltlsh sub ject,residing abroad,was a proper object of a commission under the great seal. Hav ing called his lordship's attention to this K int, lie must submit it-to his decision-: t lie conld entertain no doubt,that where a partner in a house here is a tesldent a. Inroad, and continues to trade here, to con traoi debts here, and is a *ub|ect of this realm, he cannot keep himself mil of that branch of the lair inttnded 4* prevent those partial distributions afpropany here complained of. Up to a certain period, hankroptcy was a Crime, and (hat an act of bankruptcy could pot then bo -commit ted out of the realm was owing to wlin't was, iiiTadt, originally nofietton, bur to the extension on principle of ah the rules of law for the protection df prisoners, to this case, and of that rule which did nnt admit oTany offence beidg committed a- gainst those laws beyond ilie limit of their authority. It was afterwards discovered to be a desirable object to give coirunission of bankruptcy a different consIrnctTou, and view them in Ihe light of an equitable a.I jostment, and the means of Restoring a mail who had been mtfurtnnnte rather than criminal to aorlety. and atrinst, under thepresentstatnte.lt was determined, as Ihe commeictal importance of the country required, to makepersuns not resident at mentbible to those laws. There could bo no doubt df Jeremiah being a trader since he continued to manufacture, to contract debts, and to ship goods. As to Ihe act of bankruptcy f itwassuchan act to go O' brand with the view to frustrate creditors, and surely, lfso, it wascqn illy so to re-' main there with a view of tkl.iyiug the’pny ment. i A Again, anv fraudulent conveyance,whe ther executed lierp-or elsewhere, made an act of bankruptcy ; Toy.lt would be odd,If,' if mere ' tho Judge reserved the points of law for I blobd Is turnoil to ink,-and there's "hardly the opinion of the court abovti ' DARIEN.

These were tlie principleson which the facts were to be disposed of. the facts themselves were theseGoods were sent to Liverpool, and thenco shipped to (ho United States.— The property sought to bo recovered of the defendants, who wished'only to rest under the sanction of the court, was the proceeds of cotton, shipped in return to the dafendants and assigned, fraudulently, as ha contended, by Jeremiah Thompson, to his creditors In New York. The petitioning creditors' debt tind the assignment were admitted, together with some other facts. Jeremiah Thompson re mained abroad, not merely to defraud Ids creditors by delay,ho had also made a frau dulent assignment of these effects, for tlie purpose' of indemnifying his relations in America, ,< ho were his suicties for a large nnuHirit of duties,owing to tho American government. It was. admitted that prior to the 81st of May, 1848, his drafts on the defendants lotlie amount of £70,280 had been hstionored, and this he must have been aware f before he gave this assign- inent.u'hicli.mu-t thereforejltaM been made with the express intent of defrauding his English creditors. Mr. Pollock hero road several passages from the assignment,from which.it appeared tliatthe assignment was made because ho was in difficulties j and that he made the assignment,« considering that his sureties.Isaac and William Wrighs iiad a paramount claim. The bond too was very vague i it assigned no sum, nor stated that what bonds were pvjd or un paid, but says that the assignees shall pay all. that they were called oh to pay, for the purpose of the assignment) If this had been acted on, they might have callet the defendants lo pay the money will _ even showing that any thing was due to ter state, them, and left the English creditors with out a farthing. The commission was read. Tha date of the assignment was 6th July. 1829. Tho petitioning creditors’ debt was admitted. A deposition of Mr. Win. Rnthbone was put in and read. A number of letters were also pot in, in pionfofthe partnership between Jeremiah and William Thompson. Mi Brougham, for.the defence, conten tied in the first place that the assignment was of no force, as being executed in vio lation of tho stamp act, and was therefore no conveyance of any thing j in the next place, that it was no conveyance of goods and chatties, seeing that it was a convey* ance of a contingent debt, to arise out of the sale of the cotton. T? disprove the partnership,the brother William Thompson, was oalled, who sla- red that his brother went abroad in 1800, when he was only l5yearsofa«e. He re turned in 1806. In 1818 lie was again in England, in the spring or that year, and then the partnership ceased •, after that £100,000 had been sent to Ida brothor in New York, more than he returned. He afterwards admitted that when tlie part nership dissolved, it was agreed that they should, at the end of ten years, divide Ihe profit* of both concerns. Mr. Brougham admitted that tho case was now proved as far as tho partnership w as concerned, A verdict for the plain tiff was given, subject ip a reference, sot DEMARARA, Sept. 2. Horrible.—Reports equally singular and shacking are at present In circalalion]hcie and we give them publicity on tlie verael ty of a respectable gentleman from Suri until. It would scent that about four months ago, a Dutch sloop of war, whilst cruising off tho Islnntl of Saba, fell in wljli a ship, the ci.w of which cotrlil nut give riny accoOnl of her destimfllon, or whence she came; and having oupapers-to show, she was immediately taken possession of by the Dutchman. Shortly after, u scltoo tier strongly armed and manned, made her appearance, spoke tlie Dutch sloop of svur, and claimed tha ship as (ter prize. The sclir professed to be a Buenos Ayrran pri vateer, and produced n commission in sup inrtofher fretensinns. On examination t was found that tho commission Was Mini ted to a given’period, and that that period ha<l expired for some time. Tlie Dutch man of course very properly took. posses sion of the schooner also ns a pirate, and a- tong with the ship carried him to Saha.— But the authorities there being incompe tent, they were subsequently carried to Sur inam for nil' “ . . .. tion turned Brazil, and site was fitted out as a slave ship, and was proceeding to Ihe Africao coast for her unljalluwctl traffic; and that she was captured,by the brigantine'a lew- days niter loaving port on her outward voyage. The crew, however, ttho left the port with her are missing,and tin satisfacto ry account is given of them by the pirate, Our informant states/that one of the arew of tho schooner offered to become king's evidence, hut such'being Inconsistent with the Dutch criminal proceedings, tho testi - mony of this man was rejected. From him however, it lias transpired, that the whole crew of the Brazilian (hip wdre put Ho death, harlfg beenffnt put in a boat, and then filed at and sank tijllre private. Tha most horrid and disgusting part of the tale remains yet to lie folds Tne ship was condemned at Surinam, in conse quence of-having a slaving cargo on board; amongst other things, the cargo consisted of a considerable-quantity of potk in hogs heads; these were pfililicly-sola, when open •d by the purchasers, were found to con tain human carcases cut up into pieces, and sailed amongst t|ie pork On many pails of these human remains were distinctl traced pieces of tat toning w ith which sea men often m.trk their bodies. Tlie authori ties on learning thesehOnihle details, took every possible precaution to prevent them front being made public, whilst the captain and crew of the schooner were subjudice. It is not yet known whether the human flesh Was originally mixed op with llto pork, or whether it waslhe work of the pirates. It Is greatly apprehended thnt these momteis will getoff; the Dutch criminal prncerdi-ngs are extremely tedious; thereis a well known and pr-verldal liability to to bribery; and the jail is in (most wretched and insecure condition.' The description of the pitnte corresponds " ith that given of the vessel which in April (art plundered the Ad- ibf - ' — 1 ait-atom of my -anatomy," ahd I do believe if I was dead ami.properly dried, an old fashioned snufftakcr might take my remains at a pinch- lie got In a huff uhulit tho snuff, and wnsjust ns ill bread concerning the bread t ha said no light woman should have a candle, but should go to bed without one, and In respoct to thn rum aloud was was willing to yield the pint. lie probably will say I loft his bed and hoard—I assure tho niihllo he had nothing for a bed hut n board; and that is no belter than lylng-out whan I was on the point of (ylng-tn. No longer ago than yesterday lie promised to buy ma a soft straw lied to lie iipoiirjiut I found his promises all straw, nr rather found him all promiso and no straw, and all about llto lying tin-n soft straw lied was a hard lie on his foul tongue) since his ashes must make strong lye.uhcn lie Iscnn- doinnod to he hung, and lo give tile devil his duo, the tiino must ho near at hand.
