A CHALLENGE. A friend desires us to say, that Van Buren will be elected ; and if any gentleman of a con trary opinion is disposed to pony up a little oi the needful, he will meet him on the following He will bet one hundred dollars to fifty, that N an Buren is elected President of the United States. He will bet one hundred dollars to fifty—Van- Buren ngnitist any named candidate, upon each State severally, and pony dustum when called on. Applicants will call on the Editor who will readily shew them the way to his premises. -Glorious \ ictory i u—Pennsyl vania ELECTION. In the first Congressional District, Colonel Paynter, the regularly nominated Y'an Buren candidate, has been elected by a handsome ma jority over Doctor Sutherland, the Whig can didate. In the second District, the vote was not cer tainly known, but little doubt remained, that the Van Buren candidate was elected. In the third District, Francis J. Harper, the Van Buren candidate is elected. In Berks, Mr Muienburg the Y'an Buren candidate, is elected by a large majority. Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, Northamp ton, Lehigh, Dauphin, Lebanon, Lancaster, Berks, Union, and Northumberland counties, have given decided majorities for the \ an Bu ren candidates, their opponents having barely succeeded in two or three counties. This is the work of genuine Democracy.—lt is no more than we expected from honest Penn sylvania. The White bubble has burst sometime since, and the Harrison delusion will soon vanish into “ thin air.” YY’e publish to-dav, the answer of Howell Cobb, Esq. to certain interrogatories propounded by se-' vend citizens of Talbot county, to the Gentlemen composing the White electoral ticket, and find ourselves about as much iu the dark, in regard to his real sentiments, as we did before bis answer was made. The object of the interrogatories is so palpable, that no one can misconstrue, or misunderstand them. They seek but one object, and that is, to ascertain who will be preferred as a second choice for the Presidency, should it manifestly appear that Judge White cannot be elected. They ask nothing of the candidates, but a simple expression •f opinion upou a question involving the common interests of the American people, and seek only to know, if Judge White cannot succeed, who it is, among the other candidates, that they would prefer. To these questions, they had a right to expect a direct and unequivocal answer, that the people whose suffrages he sought might fully and plainly understand them. But the reply of Mr. Cobb is enough to satisfy the public mind, that •upon this point no direct information is to be .communicated, and that whatever may be the preference of those who are the ostensible sup-, poolers of Judge White, their opinions in regard to a second choice arc to be concealed until the , election is over. Mr. Cobb is asked if, “in the event the election should be carried to the House of Representatives,' who is your second choice for the President of the ■United .Slates—provided, it may be satisfactorily ascertained, that Judge White cannot succeed;" and.huiv docs he answer ? Does he stand up to the question, like a candid man. and say openly and above board whom he prefers ? No! and in stead of making a frank and manly disclosure of his sentiments, commences his reply by declaring .that he does “ not see the pertinency of this ques tion," and labors through a whole paragraph to shew, that it is a subject with which the electors have.nothing to do. and that as such, he has no second choice—and this is the sum and substance I of bis answer, upon a subject on which there should be nothing to conceal, and upon which every man seeking the public suffrage should feel , himself bound to make known his sentiments—So . far, all is mystery and darkness. Let us now examine his answer to the second interrogatory: in which he is asked, “would you,as ■ Ju the case of Mr. Craw ford and Mr. Adams, when Xieueral Jackson was defeated, and the will of a gnajority of the people set at nought, require our Representatives to support Judge White, should Xbat support be found to advance the prospects of .General Harrison or Mr. Webster?” To this he answers—“ That I have no requirements to make of the representatives ; as an Elector, 1 know of no authority I have to make any.” What an eva sion ! As “an Elector" he “ has no require ments to make," but they wish him. to state, as Howell Cobb—as a citizen and a candidate, if he bas not opinions and preferences, and it is their right to know them before they place him in the vary neutral and irresponsible station of Elector, where, according to bis own doctrine, he will have “ no requirements to make" of their public functionaries, and no one should shrink from their avowal. But Mr Cobb is a candidate for Elector, and in that character, he seeks to shield himself from a declaration of bis sentiments, and concludes his argument iu the following equivocal and enigma tical language. He says, “ I think it probable, that you expect tne to give my opinion of General Harrison; on that subject 1 have nothing to conceal; I respect the General for some service rendered the coun try, but I am not an admirer of his political cha racter," And what is the sum and substance of his an swer ? It is simply an evasion of the questions propounded, which leaves his opinions in regard ,to ajsccond choice wholly in the dark. He knows, end every well informed mail knows that if Judge White does not succeed, General Harrison or Mr. Y'aa Buren will bo the President; mid it is as well known that Judge White’s prospects arc ut terly hopeless, and yet Mr. Cobb, although pub licly called on for his second choice, declines to answer, and expects to satisfy the public mind, by stating, that he is “ not an admirer" of General Harrison’s "Political character." All this may lie true, and at the same time he may prefer Ge neral Harrison to Mr. Van Buren; for if his real fcntiments were known, we doubt not, that I.is .objections to Mr. Van Buren are much stronger jllau they are Io General Harrison. JVc request our readers to examine Mr. Cobb’s .answer, and when they have done m», we hazard nothing iu predicting, that it will be generally pro flounced evasive and disingenuous. Penar, October 11. IW't'. To Messrs. Edward D<lonq,J. Y. Gardner, J. Ji. Davies, J. T. Sims, C. /{. Jfynn, J. C. Inn vard, and C. J. Wallace. pENTLKMEV . ' 'Y#ur publication, dated the sth inst. I saw yes .terday in f1,,, Standard of I’nion. I relinquish pther interesting engagements that my answer I't before you mid tlie p< in time. Ii will aiiord me pleasure, at all times, to be distinct ly understood upon every point of interest con nected w itli the approaching Presidential election. I beg to say, iu the commencement ol this an swer, that tho fairness and candor of continuing the use ol Mr. Webster’s name, is not very iiuini lest. I hat gentleman has fairly, fully and puli j licly w ithdrawn from the contest at least three 1 months ago. I shall not, do not, and cannot cun sidei him a candidate for the Presidency. You appeal to have boon prompted to make your enquiries Iron, (|,e fact, that the Republican Herald has declared, that it had sooner see Gene 'al llaria .Hl. or any other candidate iu the Presi dential chair, than Mr. Y'an Buren. lam a sub set iber to that paper, and agree with it generally, but I have neither the wish or the power to con trol or im'uei.ce its course,mid do not consider my sell at all responsible for its opinions, w hether they be deemed right or wrong. Your fust inquiry is—“ln order that our Re presentatives in Congress, should the Electoral Ticket which you compose, be successful, may know the entire wishes of a majority of the peo ple ot Georgia mi this important question, we ask ol you to inform us, in the event the election should he carried to the House of Representatives, who is your second choice for the next President ot the I nited States—providedit may be satisfac torily ascertained that Judge YVhite cannot suc ceed." I confess I do not see the pertinency of this question. How the aet of the Electoral U’ollege is to affect the election between individuals foi whom it does net vote, Ido not understand. If the College of Georgia should vote for Judge White, but request that the Represent a’ives, un der certain circumstances, should vote for another individual, I cannot see that that request would have any influence. The Electors have no right to instruct, or request the Representatives how to vote ; but having met and voted, their authority immediately ends. The Constitution devolves the duty of “ choosing the President,” upon the House of Representatives whenever the Colleges tail to elect : I should suppose the Representatives would he sufficiently instructed by their constitu ents before they can be called upon to act. View ed in this light, the question you ask may with as much propriety be propounded to any other voter in the State. Although I might avoid a direct answerto this question from its irrelevancy, if not impropriety, yet, as I deem it propcron such occa sions to avoid" every thing like uncertainty, I an swer that in elections where lam a voter, I have no “ second choice." Ido not think of such things until ail hope for my choice is extinguished. I make no preparation for such exigencies until they arise. 1 never look beyond the candidate I sup port, until his election is rendered impossible. I I have been in the exercise of the elective, franchise ! for some sixteen years, and have uniformly acted ) upon this determination. This is what is meant, when in my letter of the 15th May, I say “ So en- i tirely am 1 convinced of the necessity of a south-! ern man succeeding General Jackson, that without hesitancy. 1 place all my hopes for the safety of I the Constitution and the Union upon that event, without making arrangements for contingencies.” It is highly import;) nt to act upon this determina tion non, as an election may not be made by the Colleges, in which eventthe Constitution casts the duty of "choosing the President” upon the House of Representatives; and as I cannot direct them, I desire not to share their responsibility. Your second enquiry is—“ Would" you as in the case of Mr. Craw ford aud Mr. Adams, when General Jackson was defeated, and the will of a majority of the people set at naught, require our Representatives in Congress to support Judge White? should that support be found to advance the prospects of General Harrison or Mr. YYeb ster ?” I answer, that I have no requirements to make of the Representatives; as an Elector 1 know of no authority 1 have to make any. The Repre sentatives will certainly know the wishes of a ma jority of the people long before they w ill be re quired to act, and as they are accountable to the people for that action, I shall not attempt to iuflu- i cure it. I think it probable that you expect me to give my opinion of General Harrison , ou that subjec t I , have nothing to conceal;! respect the General ' for some service rendered the country, but 1 am not an admirer of his political character. Permit me to say, that my object is not the de- j feat of any particular candidate, hut is the election ■ of Judge White; 1 oppose alike all the candidates that stand in the way, be the candidates w hom ihey may. I support Judge YVhite, first of all, for I his orthodox Republican principles ; and from the I peculiar situation of the South at this time, a man ' from amongst us seems to be required ; and lastly, j I support Him cheerfully on account of his spotless ' and unsullied reputation and character, after 1 thirty years service of the country. With respect, Gentlemen, I am Your humble servant, HOWELL COBB, run THE STANDARD OF UNION. NO. 58. The Recent Elections—New Aspect of the Presi dential Canvass—Nul'ifers beaten on their own' ! ground—May be beaten on another. If the I iiion Party have succeeded in the re- | cent elections, it will be a matter of astonish-' menu The greatest interests, the most violent passions and prejudices, and the most alarming apprehensions of our citizens have been invoked ! by the Nullifiers. If the Union Party have failed, there is cause I for redoubled effort. The presidential canvass has , assumed a new aspect The contest is now be tween Harrison and Y'an Buren. The people of I Georgia cannot go for Harrison ; they cannot sup- I i port the man who acknowledged, in debate with 1 I the late Jobu Randolph, that he was a Federalist; I a supporter of the elder Adams, &c. &c. Nor can they support a candidate who stands no chance of success, when the consequence may be the election of a man so objectionable as General Harrison. Let it not be said that effort in the election of Electors is useless. The Nullifiers have done all they could do. They expressly placed the recent election on the ground of If kite and Van Ruren. Among ether evidence, I find the following : “ It is of the utmost importance,” says the Week ly State Rights Sentinel, of September 10th, “that every anti-Van Buren man in Georgia should vote the State Rights Ticket for Congress. First, because the election of the Van Buren ticket will be claimed as a triumph of that gentleman in Georgia,” Ac. And if elected, it is indeed a tri umph ; the Nullifiers have been beaten on their ow n issue. But, even if not beaten on this issue, 'hey may be beaten on another; 1 mean, the issue between Pan Ruren and Harrison; or the issue between Van Buren, with the probability of suc cess, and YVhite. with no such prospect, and even with the danger of incidentally fa voting the elec tion of Gen. Harrison. LACON. (Jctobcr I lib. Ihs6. From the < 'harler.ton Courier. NEWS OF'HIE WiRLIA.M GIBBONS.

Hancock Superior Court, > October Term, 1836. y WE have examined the records of the Superi or aud Inferior Courts of this comity, and find the records of each office in a condition in conformity with law, aud highly creditable to the respective clerks. Wt present as a grievance, the practice of re tailing spirituous liquors to slaves, in violation of law. The law preventing this practice is saluta ry, and one meeting the approbation of the great er portion of our community, and yet we have reason to believe the law is constantly violated, to the injury ot the slave, his owner, and the commu nity, with hut a trilling benefit to the violator ; ; still no prosecutions are had, for the want of pros j ecutors ; it would therefore seem to us, that the character of a prosecutor is a station which few i of our citizens are willing to assume ; we teink j thtreis a false delicacy upon this subject : we re commend to the citizens generally, to become j prosecutors for every violation of this Jaw ; we hazard nothing in saying, that prosecutors under this law, will be protected by public opinion, with all classes who desire the good of the community. Upon the subject of a Court for the correction of Errors, it might seem unnecessary for this jury to express any thing whatever ; before the alter ation of the constitution for that purpose, such a Court has been so frequently recommended by i differentjuriesof this county, that wc suppose there i arc very few Grand Jurors who have not at some . time recommended such a Court. The constitution of our State as it stands, de clares that “ the judicial powers of this State shall be vested in a Supreme Court for the cor rec tiou of Errors, a Superior, Inferior and Justices’ Courts, and such other courts as the legislatuie shall from time to time ordain and establish.” YV e apprehend that the constitution of our state guarantees to every party litigant a tribunal for the correction of Errors. From a failure heretofore in the Legislature to pass laws necessary to carry this part of the con stitution ofour State into effect, the citizens o! Georgia are barred of a part of their constitution al rights. YVe would therefore urge upon onr present Sen ator and representatives, the necessity of using their exertions to have such laws passed, as may carry this clause of our constitution into effect. YVepresent to his honor Judge Andrews our thanks for his faithful, able, and impartial admin istration of justice.
