CHARLES J. McDNOALD. GOV. GILMER AND THE CABINET. A letter writer at Washington, say*, the name of Gov. Gilmer has been spoken of, amongst others, for a cabinet appointment. This is a sugar plumb, to reconcile Gov. Gilmer to tlie course of iiis party, in the late Senatorial elec tion—for no man who has sen-e enough to find his e laid hold of and \ way to \\ ashington, can believe, that any Individual opposed to a National Rank, will be placed in Gen. Harrison’s Cabinet.

To tins feeluig appeal, in hchult of an anxious people, having no wheie to look for succour, but to T i=oir own representatives, how did tliey reply? We answer, by parsing resolutions, calling upon the Governor, to suggest some specific measure, to pre vent the pecuniary distress of tlie pcoph—io which the day after, he made the following reply : Executive Department, ^ ■Milledgeville, loth Dec.

And they arc the men who pro- j tiounce it partial, to loan the people money, in a time ? j of unex unplcd embarrassment, and that money rais- ~ | ed upon their ow n credit and resources. 3 | Such a party as tins, to startle at the idea of parti- "| Mity and exclusive priv ileges ! j W e hold it to lie the duty of the General Asscm- nlv so to legislate as to better the condition of every individual, w^-lien it can be constitutionally done; for all free governments were instituted to promote tlie prosperity of the people—and no man in bis sober senses, will deny that tlie measure proposed by the* Governor, is constitutional.

But tlie weight of debt which is hanging over them, a large portion of which, is now, and w ill he shortly in judgments, is fearful to contemplate. When their property comes to the block, where will tlie money be found to purchase it ? And what will it bring, if times get no better ! Look around, in your own community, and tell me, how many individuals you can Cud, who have laid up money against this dark and stormy day? And it' there lie any, will they use it to relieve tlie dis- tresses of their neighbors ? I have to thank my good fortune more than my judgment, that I have not involved myself, in heavy liabilities, for several years past, and may therefore. In judicious mangement weather the storm—but if I do, looking to the condition of those around me, I shall stand almost alone, and stand amidst ruins. I would help ifl could, but I have not the means. AM that 1 can do is to invoke mercy, from tlio-c who are able t>; shew mercy, and to inculcate a spirit of forbearance towards one another. Since writing the tlie above, a friend lias place I in mi band, Governor McDonald’s Message, to tic legislature, urg ing tlie necessity of adopting some ef ficient measure for the relief of the people, before their adjournment—a document which does honor to his head and his heart, and justly entitled him to tin- proud appellation of a public benefactor—liir siicli is the man, who does all in his power, to ameliorate t lie condition of his country. And is it i.ot sin prising, that after the subject was so earnestly pr< ssed upon their consi leration, by the Governor, that so far fioia making an effort to carry out his beneficent view s, the majority should still have persisted in their head long course? uiihss itwas to illustrate the maxim, that “whom God intends to destroy, he first makes mad.” 1 iliiuk tlie uieiubi rs from this county, will find it a difficult task to explain their conduct in a satisfac tory manner to their constituents; and if’ I am not j greatly mistaken, “Harrison and Reform,” will be dead stock, in this market, before the first day of next October. I have already extended this letter beyond the limit 1 intended, but in this state of universal alarm, when tlie anxious enquiry is starting from the lips of thou sands and tens of thousands of* virtuous, and patriotic citizens—what shall we do? if I was a public counse'- lor, I would answer, call the people together—meet in your primary assemblies, u> deliberate upon your situation, and to adopt measures tor your security against the whirlwind wi ;.ii is gathering for your destruction.
