As many retired matrons of the country unskilled in “gesticlore,” tire doubtless ig norant of lhe movements and figures of rno i dent exhibitions, 1 will endeavor to give some account of it, in order that they may learn what odd capers their daughters some times ettf, when from under the protection of their guardian wings. O.t a signal be ing given by the music, the gentleman;eiz cs the lady round her wai t; the lady, scorning to be outdone in courtesy, very po litely takes the gentleman round the neck, with one arm resting against his shoulder, to prevent encroachments. Away, then they go, about “ About what, sir?” About the room, madam, to be sure. The whole economy of this dance consists in turning round and round the room in inea | sured step; and it is truly astonishing that j this continued evolution does not set all the 1 heads swimming like a top; but I have I been positively assured that it only creates > a gentle sensation marvellously agreeable. | In this circumnavigation, the dancersinor | der to give the charm of variety, are con tinually changing their relative situations; now the gentleman, meaning no harm in the world, I assure you, madam, carelessly Hings his arms about the lady’s neck with an air of celestial impudence, and anon, the lady, meaning as little hatm as the gentle man, takes him round the waist with most ingenious modest languishment, to the great delight of numerous spectatorsand ama teurs, who generally form a ring, as the mob do about a pair of Amazons pulling caps, or a couple of fighting mastiffs. Af ter continuing this divine interchange of hands, arms, &.c. for half an hour or more* the lady begins to tire, and with eyes up raised in the most bewitching langor, peti tion her partner for a little more support. This is always givpn without hesitation. The lady leans gently on his shoulder, their' arms entwined in a thousand seducing hnd 1 mischievous curves—don’t be p,’arp,- |f f j ma _ I dam closer and closer they approach each ; other, ;md j n t | )e conclusion, the parties, overcome with exstatical fatigue, the lady seems sinking into the gentleman’s arms, and then “Well, sir, what then ?” Why, madam, how should 1 know ? EXCERPTS. On spending Time.— The celebrated Lord Coke wrote the subjoined distich, w hich he religiously observed in the distri- , bution of time: Six hours <o sleep—to laws’ grave study six; Four spend in prayer—the rest to nature fix. But Sir William Jones, a wiser economistof the fleeting hours of life, amended the sen timent in the following lines: Seven hours to law—to soothing slumber seven, Ten to the world—and all to heaven. How to destroy a falling Brother.— Look sly at him, speak harshly and unkindly,ac cuse, blame, criminate and threaten; speak i ill of him in his absence; lose sight of all j his excellencies, and magnify his faults. | How to restore a fallen Brother.— Thou I art in the boat, he has fallen overboard into ! the water; therefore don’t push him with the ; oar, for he w ill only go farther from thee, or i sink to rise no more. Rather sail around him, enclose hitn in the gospel net, or lake I him up io thy hands and lift him into the, boat, and speak kindly and comfortable to I him, and remember that by doing so, thou | shall hide a multitude of sins. If Christians must contend, let it be like ! the olive and the vine: which shall bear the most and the best fruit—not like the as- I pen and the elm; which shall make most I noise in the wind. Man is to himself the most astonishing j object in nature, for he cannot conceive what body is, still less what spirit is, and | less than all, how a body' and a spirit can be | united. That is the climax of his difficul ties, and yet it is his proper being. Prefer the aged, the virtuous, and the knowing, and choose those thavexcel, for your company and friendship, but despise not others. Idleness is the bog of gentry, the bane of body* and mind, the nurse of naughtiness, the step-mother of deception, the chief au thor of ail mischief, one of the seven dead ly sins, the cushion upon which the devil chiefly reposes, and a great cause not only of melancholy, but of many other diseases; for the mind is naturally active, and if it be not occupied about some honest business it rushes into mischief or sinks into melancho ly* What you leave at your death, let it be without controversy, else the lawyers will be your heirs. More hearts pine away in secret anguish for unkindness from those who should be their comforters titan for any other calamity i in life. A dog has been the companion of man I for more titan five hundred years, and has I learned but one of his vices; that is to wor | ry his species when he finds them iu dis tress.” Connivance.— He that winks at an injury he might prevent, shares in it; and it is as scandalous to fear blame or reproach for do ing your duty, as to deserve reproof for ne glect of it. A Singular Circumstance.— A lady walk ing across lhe fields in lhe neighborhood of j Islington, observed two very suspicious looking fellows, who seen Ted watching an opportunity to rob her ; her alarm was in creased by observing a fellow of a similar appearance in a pathway at a little distance from her, but as the case did not admit of visitatijn, she beckoned him to stop, and addressed him withan air of confidence : “ Str, you look like a gentleman. Ido not ’ like lhe appearance of those fellows behind ; us. 1 think they intend to rob me.” “Ma dam,” replied the if you //ill take my arm, I will attend you till you are quite out of danger; you will see when I wave mv handkerchief, the two men will s | lcar off. They arc my companions, and we in tended to rob you, but when confidence is reposed in me, 1 am not scoundrel enough to betray it.” He attended her until she came in sight of her own bouse, when she offered him a guinea as a reward for bis protection; he refused, adding, “ I hope I have more honor left than to place my cha racter on a level with that of a lawyer— 1 am above taking a fee.” Dead Men's Thoughts.— lt is recorded in the Boston Medical Journal of April, that some of the most eminent physiologists of Germany and France are now pertina ciously arguing the very curious question as to whether a man feels after his head is off. In support of this unpleasant theory many facts are adduced with grave vouch ers for their authenticity. Among others is the most unfortunate Mary, Queen ofScots, whose lips continued to move in prayer for at least a quarter of ati hour after the ex ecutioner performed his duty. Windt states that after having pm his mouth to the ear of a departed criminal’s head, and calling him by name, the eyes turned to the side from w.tence the voice came ; and this is attested by Fontenelle, Mogore, Gullitine, Handle and Aldini. On the word murder being called in the ear of a criminal executed for that crime at Colhlentz, the halfclosed eyes , opened with an expression of reproach on ! those who stood around. , There was a boy in my class at school (says Sir VV. Scott,) who stood always at the top, nor could I, with all my efforts sup plant him. Day came after day, and still he kept his place do what I would, till at length I observed that when a question was asked him, he always fumbled with his fin ger at a particular button in 'he lower part of liis waiscoat. T o remove it, therefore, became expedient in my eyes, and in an e '.di moment it was removed with a knife. Great was my anxiety to know the success ' of my measure, and it succeeded too well. U hen the boy was again questioned his j finger sought for the button ; but it was not 1 to be found. In his distress he looked down ; for it; it was to be seen no more than to ' be felt. He stood confounded and I took possession of bis place ; nor did he ever ! recover it, nor ever, I believe, suspect who : was the author of his wrong. Often in as- ] ter life has the sight of him smote nte as I ■ passed by him ; and often have I resolved I to make him some reparation, but it ended I in good resolutions.— Lockhart's Life of < Nco/L IPoliticisL Prom the Augusta Constitutioncdist. THE APPROACHING ELECTIONS. Our creed has been, and still is, Princi ples and Men. Conscientiously believing that lhe principles of the party to which we are attached are sound, and better calcu’a'- cd than others to advance the prosperity of the country, and maintain the political, ci vil, and religious rights of the people, it is a natural wish that those principles should ; always prevail in the administration of our state and federal affairs; and it is a duty we owe to tfie country to give our undivid ed exertions in maintaining the ascendency of the party which professes those pi inci- j pies. Can we maintain the ascendency of our party, and, consequently, of our prin ciples, otherwise than by conferring official power and influence on men belonging to the same party, and professing the same principles? \?e believe not. Why then should we vote for men of an antagonist party, professing other principles ? If we) were to vote, at the elections in October I next, for any one of our adversaries, we ) would be guilty of a serious offence against j our party; we would act against the dic tates of our conscience; and would violate the solemn duty we owe to our country, which is, in all cases, to vote conscientiously ■ and independently. To pretend to belong to a party, and profess its principles, and then to vote for men of another parly, whet entertain other principles, cannot be recon ciled with true dignity and honor. Men acting in this manner lose the confidence of the party to which they had attached themselves, and acquire an unenviable re putation among those whom they served by their votes: in fact, they never can be trust ed hereafter by any party. Next October we have to elect a Gover-' nor. Two candidates are before the elec tors; Gov. Schley and Mr. Gilmer: both men of reputation and talents. One is the candidate of the Union party, and the other of the Nullification party. We shall not attempt to lessen the character and abilities of Mr. Gilmer, by comparing them with the character and abilities of Gov. Schley ; we have too much personal respect for Mr. Gilmer to endeavor to promote the interests of bis opponent by representing him as des titute of qualifications. The interest of Gov. Schley cannot be promoted by level ling Mr. Gilmer to the lowest grade of in tellect, if even it could be done with truth and justice. The standing of Gov. Schley does not require such a prop. But the one is the candidate of lheUnion party, and the other is the candidate of our opponents:! this is enough for us, and all true Union men, to support and vote for Gov. Schley. And why vote for him? Because we are convinced that he is qualified to discharge ; the duties of the office for which he is a candidate; because he professes the princi ples of the Union party; and because by electing him we maintain the ascendency of our party, and of our principles, in the state. Gan we, without abandoning pur party arnd our principles, vole forJMr. Gil mer? Certainly not. We virtually aban don opr party, apd reject our principles, by voting for Mr. Gilmer, because our party may be placed in the minority, and other principles will govern tke state udministra- > tion. Dmy to the state and to the who! ■ j country demands that we should strictly ad j here to our party and to our principles ; I and wc cannot give a better demonstration of regard for our public institutions, than by following the motto, “Principles and Men : principles first, and then men to car ry out those principles. But it may hap pen, that personal objections may exist a- | gainst a candidate of lhe party. This we readily admit; and we admit also that we have heard of personal objections against Gov. Schley, by a few Union men. Should personal objections have any weight, when the ascendency of our party and of oir principle, is involved in the issue of an elec tion ? Could Union men voting for Mr. Gilmer call themselves patriots and consis tent Union men? Suppose that by their votes Mr. Gilmer should be elected, what gratification would they feel? Could the defeat of Gov. Schley compensate the few Union men who may vote for Mr. Gilmer, for the mortification they will give to thou sands of political friends ? And could such Union men ever afterwards have the hardi hood to call upon those thousands of politi cal friends for support and countenance ? ' Certainly not. The Union party has no thing to do with the private transactions of its members, nor with the personal objec tions that may be entertained by a few a gainst the candidates of the party. Gov. Schley has been presented by the Union party as their candidate for the office of Go vernor, at the October elections: the Union party expects, therefore, that ever}' citizen who professes to be a Union man, and to be long to that phrly, will vote for that candi date. We say the Union party expects every Union man to vote for Gov. Schley; the .Union party cannot use compulsion ; ’ for it is a natural right of every American ! citizen to vote for whom he pleases. Eve-; ry man in this country can entertain and , express whatever principles he may choose, and change them as often as he thinks pro per ; hut at the same time he cannot expect to retain his station among men professing a certain set of principles, if he has thought proper to put them aside, and adopt those of another party; and he cannot be consi- ' dered as belonging to the party, when his acts are at variance with the principles he pretends to profess, and the declarations of his being yet a member of that party. If we conscientiously believed that the princi ples of the Union party were not sound, and best calculated to promote the welfare of the country, we would make the declara tion ; and from that moment we would vote against the candidates of the Union party. Could we, after such declarations, and after voting in this manner, pretend still to be long to the Union party, and could we have i the effrontf'V to claim the benefits and pri- ! vileges of Union t3?P ? Front the Macon Telegraph. “THE ANTI-VAN BUREN PARTY.” ; This is the cognomen assumed by a new i combination of men, composed cf disap pointed aspirants, and chafed demagogties, throughout the United States, by which they are to know and identify eacit other, in their unholy crusade against the princi ples of Democracy and of the Constitution. This name has been substituted for the re cently much abused title of “ Whig,” worn so conspicuously by the Abolitionists and : Federalists of the north, to hide their real Tory principles-of’76. In the south this j name, “ Anti-Van Buren,” has been adopt- ' ed in lieu of the former names of “ Anti- ! Tariff,” “Republican,” “State Rights,” i “ Anti-Jackson,” “Nullification,” &.c. Sic. ■ which, in their order, have been tried and; found to be ineffectual, the people being too 1 intelligent to be gulled by the mere force I of popular names, when these names ceas ed to represent corresponding principles. 1 Under this new title of “ Anti-Vanßuren Party,” standjarrayed all the mal contents of j the country —all the enemies of lhe Consti- j ttttion, as so many volunteer companies bent upon the Same object, differing only as res pects their various uniforms. Their prin ciples are identical, all tending to produce the same result —the overthrow of the con stitution, and with it all the dear blood bought rights of the people, The real opponents of our glorious form of government, ever since the days *of lhe elder Adams, and of their discomfiture in the repeal of the alien and sedition laws, have sought and looked with argtts eyes to some popular point, and some popular name, I whence they could stir lhe people into a fer ment, and in the great hurry and bustle of excitement, seize upon and destroy.the great charter of American libertj. Hence they have been the constant panic makers, and the authors of every general distress, so far as the aroused fears of the people, occa sioned by their long and loud false clamors, could contribute to such distress. “The Anti Van Buren Party,” as it is now known, combines various small parlies of factions, disappointed and discontented men, who had not, until recently, been able to unite their restless and seemingly discordant spi rits—they have, at length, however, forgot ten all minor differences, joined their diffe rent corps together, and have been muster ed into the sen ice in close columns, armed and equipped as their by laws direct. The imagination points them out as quite ! a fantastical army, exhibiting as great a va riety of uniforms, flags, costumes and coun tenances, as the different Indian nations of the far west. They all look lean and hag gard and hungry for office ; in their scuffle j for power, they look as though they had I spent many restless nights in the invention i of some new scheme, and new name, with which to defraud lhe honest unsuspecting ' patriot. I The front company is the company of ■ Nullifiers, commanded by Captain John C. I Calhoun. Their uniform, blue coats and J white pantaloons—a button cockade, and I red flag, and sitigjji star. The men look of ■ the lantgrit-jawed order, being pale and • 1 swarthy* ami as us consurfimive jublu—* ; the contortions of their faces show how j miserable is ambition in defeat. J Next behind these, stand the company of I ( Abolitionists, Coinnjanded by Captain Ar .tour lappan, a little old quaker. Their ■ uniform, grey sattinet rouri.labouts, low l breeches, and low crowned hats. They ; have cried so much about slavery, that they I have contracted flat noses and thick lip.s, and in many instances, kinckey heads, i _ hey have a tin plate in front, whereupon is engraved “ Emancipation”— their flag is black satin, with the picture of a nigwur's head on it. The third company is the company ofthe Blue Light Federalists, ofthe elder Adam’s school, commanded by Capt. Daniel Web ster. Their uniform is black broat-cloth, fresh from England. * Their pockets are 1 full of money, derived from the sale in the ; South, of wooden nut-megs, wooden clocks, and such-like commodities. They have a stand of colours, without stars or stripes, and I in the place where the eagle should appear, 1 is a blue light, burning like a taper. Un der this blue light is engraved in large ■ letters, these words, “ The British will stand of] - , the Democrats are coming.’” If you were to judge from the looks of this company, you would suppose from their ap parent fatigue, that they had just been pulled out bead and ears from an almost inextricable bog. These and the prece ding company of Abolitionists, are kindred tirit*, and only differ as regard their flag and dress. The fourth company, composing the fa mous regiment, is the company ofTariffites, commanded by Captain Henry Clay, a tall, raw-honed, long-faced Kentuckian. They are growing hemp enough this year to hang their brethren in arms. Their uniform is manufactured from the Kentucky bagging —grass hats of home manufacture. Their flag is made of cotton bagging, with this inscription written on it in large black let ters, “ The compromise and protective Tariff forever.” This standing army of disappointed of fice hunters, are under the pay of Col Nich olas Biddle, Pay Master, and proprietor of the British Bank of the United States. Gentle reader, pause for a moment and reflect. This picture though sketched from fancy, is but too true. Look to this mat ter, and behold the formidable array of op ponents to the Constitution. Look to the East, the North, the South, and the West— see the enemies of the people and of the j Constitution gathering together like a black | cloud, presently to descend upon us, in an I awful storm. Friends of liberty—lovers of j Union—admirers of the Constitution— ! where are jdu.? Stand upon the outer’ walls and watch. Remember that eternal vigilance is, “the price of liberty,’’’and that only, will s*ve the country. Be constantly at your posts lest the enemy come within, and seize upon our stars and bur stripes. Opposed to this combination, stand the Uniod men of Georgia, to fight the first battle on the first Monday in October next. Union men be prepared for the onset. Stand op t° your principles and the Con- j stitution, and all will be well. The victory—the triumph will be yours. The combined army, of which the forego ing picture is but an imperfect sketch, will be put to flight, and the star spangled banner will continue still to wave in proud j ascendency over the land of lhe free and the home ofthe brave. . From the Macon Telegraph. THE EXPERIMENT. “The Experiment lias failed!” shouts Dufl’Green. “Certainly,” echoes lhe Geor gia Journal. “ Ditto, ditto,” yelps the Ma con Messenger. “The Experiment of An drew Jackson has failed, tetotaciously fail ed,” chimes in every nullifying organ from Dan to Bersheba. What Experiment? What measure,plan or project of Andrew Jackson has failed? We put it (o the opposition themselves What scheme that he ever took in hand has failed ? It is a mistake. The experiments of An drew Jackson have all succeeded. Did be not extinguish the National Debt? Did he not recover the Five Millions from France? Has he not strangled the Monster? Did he not bring more gold and silver into the country than alibis predecessors? Aye! Did the expunging experiment fail ? Not at all. It was the Experiments of the Whigs and Nullifiers that failed. What became of the experiment to defeat his re-election ? Failed! What became of Calhoun’s beau tiful little experiment of Nullification? An awful failure! What of White’s, Webster’s and Harrison’s, of getting into the Presi dential chair? Failures, all!; The Nullifiers have failed—the Aboli tionists have failed—the Whigs have failed —the Anti-Van Burenites have failed— Biddle has failed—while Andrew Jackson and his successor have triumphed. The United Stales Bank was a foul can- I cer on the breast of lhe Republic—eating j up its substance and corrupting the whole ■ system. The question presented to Gene- i ral Jackson was, should lie suffer the can- ' cer to live, until it killed lhe patient? or j should he kill it, and give the patient a : chance to live ? He chose the latter; and though the operation (or experiment) of cut- I ; ting it out produced some inconvenience, j j lhe patient is likely tq recover from its es- . ! feels, without calling iu the aid of any Whig j steam doctor. I And now, that ;hc operation is over, the tumor removed, atu) the wound nearly well, who will say that the patj.epl is not better ? No one—except the doctors wliq advised a different course, and (lie vermin wiio jdrew llteir support frotp the sore! The opposition, ;n their untiring zeal to i abuse the .late or present administrations, i are guilty of such strange incongruities, h.eo./Siiiteaviei. such J"; .slis.’ie;) by p. l. WE S O. 8 S menls, that, had they any character to lose, it would long ago have been suspended. At one moment, they speak of Andrew. Jackson as an imbecile old man—a tool of wiser heads—mere clay in the hands of the. potter ! &.c. In the next breath, they charge . him with being the author of all lite great-, national measures—the originator of the Experiment, the Dictator, Whose merest ? nod is implicitly obeyed, &■<.•*- Mr. Van Buren is accused in one breath I being’ lhe humble imitator of President, Jackson—the mere dupe of the old hero tv and in the next, they call him a Magician, a Necromancer, a wire-worker, arid assert that Jackson was but his catspavv, &.c. ! Now which postulate will they adhere to? If either is true, the other must be false. The probability is, that both art false.—— Macon Telegraph.
