VVe publish the official report of this indefati gable Indian hunter and Indian fighter, in to day’s paper, and recommend it to the perusal of every body. He deserves the thanks of his country and we doubt not his services will be remembered with gratitude by the whole popu lation of South Western Georgia. He is just the very boy to go wherever an Indian can, and fight him any way he desires. The Georgia and Carolina Almanac, for 1837, has been laid on our table by Messrs. Guieu & Thompson, of the Constitutionalist office; a table of its contents will be found in our paper to day. We think it rather more neatly printed than usual, and from the hasty glance we have given its pages, find that it con tains many matters of useful information not hitherto contained in Almanacks. DREADFUL WRECK. In to-day’s paper, our readers will find a spir ited account of a dreadful wreck which lately happened off the coast of North Carolina. It js from the Salisbury (N. C.) Watchman, one of the wreck masters, and will prove very in-| teresting to friends and others concerned tor j the loss of the gallant new vessel. m i A writer in the Standard of Union, over the signature of Henry,” says that the Sentinel lias, among other papers, come out against, the Central Rank. This is a. mistake. We se conded the recommendation of the Federal Union to appropriate Georgia’s share of the j surplus revenue to the construction of Railroads \ and tin purposes of internal improvement gen erally ; but we have never urged the propriety of breaking up the Central Bank. The Southern Banner announces the name of Pitt Milner, Esq. of Monroe county, as the candidate selected by the Van Burenites recent ly at Athens, to till the vacancy in their ticket for Electors, occasioned by the withdrawal of Gen. Watson. A writer in the Georgia Journal, as well as the Editor of that paper, call upon the Federal Union and Standard of Union for a copy of Gen. Watson’s letter declining to run as a candidate for electior on the Van Buren ticket. It appears to us the letter is due to the public ; at least to the immediate friends of Gen. Wat son. We should like to see it ourselves—may we be permitted to add our request for its pub lication/, as we presume it cannot be private or confidential. At a recent election for two members of the Legislature to fill two vacancies in Hinds county, Mississippi, the White candidates were elected by overwhelming majorities. Hinds is the most populous county in the State, and the scat of Government is at Jackson, in that coun ty. We notice tli s among other signs, of the de clension of Van Burenism. The Southern Whig of the 27th says, “ We understand that the Directors of the Georgia Rail Road and Banking Company, are making arrangements for the putting under contract, v the balance of the Union Road to Greensboro’ and to Alliens in the month of October next.— All persons, therefore, who may feel interested, would do well to make arrangements for the contracts.” MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. The ferry boat winch plies between the Navy Yard at Brooklyn and the foot of Walnut street New York, on the morning of the 23d inst. came in contact with the steamboat Boston and was immediately sunk. Six persons and four teen horses were drowned. THE NOBLE SACRIFICE. The letter of Col. John H. Howard in to day’s Sentinel, exhibits one of the most magnan. imous acts of self devotion to the public good, of which the present eye of political degenera cy can boast. Had the friends who placed the name of Col. Howard in nomination for Con gress, have requested his declension for the purpose of enabling them to pay a tribute of respect to a political opponent who had sus tained with independence and ability their views and feelings on the floor of Congress, alone and unaided by those from whom whom he had a right to expect co-operation, upon the most vi tally important subject of the day, it would even then have been a degree of noble self sa crifice worthy of the highest praise and admira tion. But when he comes forward of his own accord, in the abundance of Ins patriotism, un- asked, unsolicited, and relieves his friends of llieir obligations to support him, for the two fold purpose of heaping honor upon a political opponent who has done his duty to his country, and of making the way fair for the people to elect others who will “go and do likewise,” it becomes an act of disinterested magnanimity, honorable to the head that conceived it and supremely honorable to the heart that had the moral courage to make the sacrifice which it re quired. High as he has hitherto stood in the estimation of his political friends, how infinitely higher will he now rise by this one single act! And should the day of our supremacy as a par ty ever arrive, and we think it close at hand, how great and resistless will be his claims upon our future consideration. By this important movement, Gen. Glascock will be returned to Congress with the most tri umphant ever given to any man in Georgia. It adds 20,000 votes to his poll, and even if his present treacherous colleagues should be again returned With him, it will tell the enemies of Southern rights that although the power of party discipline may sustain them, yet the peo ple of the State have sustained him. It will falsify the predictions of those who in their hearts would be glad to see him down, that he could not and would not be sustained in the stand which he had taken on the floor of Con gress on Mr. Pinkney’s resolutions. W e say to the people do your duty to your selves and to your dearest interests. There are now two tickets before you—one is the Georgia ticket and the other is the ticket of Mr. Van Boren—one will subserve the interests of the State; the other, the interests of that wily political weathercock. We are under stood; we mean there are nine candidates now, and only nine upon whom the State can de pend to vindicate her rights, and there are 8 others who, if re-elected, will desert those rights, as they have hitherto deserted them recently on the floor of Congress. The Federal Union exhibits great uneasiness about tiie result of the approaching elections.— Sometime since it denounced the Republican Herald of Columbus on its first appearance, in the most unqualified terms, and along with it the whole class of Union men supporting Judge White. Now it perceives as every body else does, that the Union friends of tho judge when added to the State Rights’ strength, constitute u majority of the State; and that it is impossi ble to give the vote of Georgia to Van Buren, the Federal Union changes its denunciations into the most affectionate and parental kind ness, and begs them, ifthpy will vote for White, not to abandon the party on other elections. At first, the Federal Union supposed itself able to whip these independent men back again into the ranks of Van Buren, but finding itself mis taken, it now resorts to a d'ffbrcnt process. But notwithstanding all its present apparent kindness and affection for them, if the party felt able to do without them, they would be in stantly and unceremoniously kicked out of it. It is certainly an act of great clemency in the Federal Union, to allow the Union friends of White to vote for him when it finds they are determined to do bo, and it exhibits no little pliancy in the creed ofthat paper, to hear it tell ‘ these nullijiers in disguise,” as it once denoun ced them, that they may vote for White with out any violation of their principles. But the Union friends of White wc doubt not have discernment enough to sec that if the pre sent delegation in Congress are all re-eecied, even with their help, it will be proclaimed and shouted forth to the world as a triumph of Van Buren in Georgia, and that too by the Federal Union itself. If every Union Anti-Van Buren man in the State votes the Van Buren ticket for Congress, will they be allowed any credit for it! no! Every Van Buren paper in Geor gia will proclaim tiiat lie has triumphed over combinations and coalitions of Nullifiers and “ White whigs,” and every effort will be made to create the impression that lie is stronger in Georgia than every description ufjopposition to him. We say then to the opponents of Van Buren, sec that you give no vote which can bo made use of to aid in his election. THE LATE ELECTIONS. Kentucky, North Carolina and Indiana, have gone in the most decisive manner against Van Buren ; Illinois and Missouri have gone for him, and Alabama is claimed by both parties in the State; but our opinion, from all the infor mation taken together, is, that she has decided for White in her legislative elections and will decide more strongly for him in the electoral election. Every one of these States, except Kentucky, voted for Gen. Jackson in 1832, and it is now doubtful if Van Buren gets any of them but Illinois. Every where, Van Buren is weaker than the friends who run under his flag and hence many men running for offices in the different States as Van Buren men, are to a great extent sustained by a popularity of their own, acquired as Jackson men, which they can never transfer to a man who, like Van Buren, has no positive popularity or claims upon the people of his own. V’ e are perfectly content that the Courier and its correspondents shall have to themselves the whole field of angry discussion on the com promise, which seems so much to have discom posed their equanimity of temper. The Couri er continues to charge intrigue upon our party, but after so many repeated calls for proof and so many repeated failures to produce it, we suspect that a sensible and discerning commu nity will neither give much credit to the charge, nor partake much of the morbid sensibility and unnecessary violence which that paper has exhibited of late. Perfectly content too, shall we bo with any arrangement which our political friends see proper to make, satisfied that they will submit to nothing incompatible with the honor of our party, nor make any requisitions upon our ad versaries derogatory to theirs. What dishonor or what injury can attach to either party by agreeing for a season to lay aside the violence and acrimony of political contention and bend ing their united energies to the accomplishment of objects of vital importance to the citizens of both, we cannot possibly discern. But we are neither the advocate nor opponent of the pro posed arrangement; unentitled as we are for want of residence, to vote at all for members of the Legislature in Richmond, we shall yield a willing acquiescence to whatever may be done by those whose constitutional privileges place them upon a different ground. We had thought however upon reading “Richmond” in the Courier, and “Baldwin” in the Constitutionalist, to have said something to both; but inasmuch as Gen. Glascock has not made a response to the thrilling and heart ren ding appeal of the former, vve presume that the dying agonies under which he seemed to have druAed his production have reached their final consummation, and that he is now beyond the reach of consolation ; and inasmuch as Col. Howard has withdrawn and the State Rights’ party will all support Gen. Glascock, the argu ment which the latter writer thought he had found against the compromise, in his allitera tion of our remarks to our party on the propri ety of voting their entire ticket, has fallen to the ground, any reply to him becomes unneces sary. We could easily demonstrate that the cases were not analogous; and that they are not now, needs no demonstration. From tiie Southern Recorder. Bunker Hill, August 29, 1836. To iilic I’eoyle of Georgia, And especially to the Stale Rights Party. Unalterably fixed in the opinion, that the best interests of the people of the whole Union depend upon the triumph and general recogni- I tion of State Rights principles, I conceive it my duty to do every thing in my power to pro mote, at all times, the success of the State Rights Ticket. In these times, as in all others, it is safer to rely rather upon the action than the professions of public men. Gen. Glascock’s conduct during the last session of Congress, upon the Abolition question, was so perfectly satisfacto ry to the State Rights party, that many of our friends, influenced by the integrity of their principles, manifest an ardent desire to give him iheir support. This is nothing less than would be expected from those whose devotion is more to principles than to men ; and although it is improper for any State Rights man to in dulge these generous feelings while he has a full ticket of hio own pauy oeiore mm, tor the substantial reason, that it would be an act of great neglect, and indeed injustice, to his politi cal friends, as their action upon that sobject, as well as upon all others, would have been equally satisfactory, had an opportunity been afforded them; yet many, nevertheless will make room upon our ticket for the man who has burst the shackles of pariy interest, and coine out upon his country’s side. Therefore, that the general ticket may not be affected by the vote given to Gen. Glascock, I withdraw my name : for if a vacancy should not be cre ated upon ourttekef, the whole would have to divide the loss. Candor requires us to ac knowledge that we have do votes to spare, and the t.uth can never do injury to a virtuous cause. I should have done this act earlier, had I been in a situation to learn more of public opinion. Influenced alone by what I believe to be best calculated to advance iny country’s interest, I do hope my motives will not be harshly con sidered or hastily condemned by my political friends, and that they will examine the subject well before they censure the act: but to the good sense of the party, I yield with perfect submission. It is, I repeat, to give the most effectual and undivided vote to our party, and secure the election of the balance of its repre sentatives, that I withdraw. It is to advance the force and power of our everlasting truths, that I withdraw ; and it is, lastly, to call upon the people to look at who tney arc supporting, and lor what they are supporting them, that I have withdrawn. Very respectfully, JOHN H. HOWARD. FOR TIIE SENTINEL. To Mr. Boh Short : In looking over your paper?, if you ever see any thing that Gen. Coffee ever done in Con gress, please inform me, as I want his friends to be able to give a reason for the hope they have tor him. LO WNDES. FOR THE SENTINEL. Mr. Edi tor —I second the motion of “ A C.tizen,” whose rcmaiks are to be toundin jour paper of the 19th inst. headed “Our Homes.” I have myself, both spoken and written on llie same subject, repeatedly, and have met with no one to second me, (till now,) that fully enters into my views. The citizens of Augusta will not, I fear, open their eyes to the alarming ten dencies of tlie matters adverted to by “ A Cit izen.” The evils pointed out, certainly exist to an alarming extent—and the picture he draws is true to life, and might be made much strong er, without resort to fiction. I have myself witnessed many acts of impu dence and presumption, on the part of our slaves. 1 have seen negroes leap up behind carriages, (particularly when the hind curtain was down,) and have had occasion to whip them from my own. I have seen well dressed negroes, riding their masters carriage horses, on Sunday afternoons, all in a foam of sweat, prancing and fretting under the spur and whip of a more than half drunk rider. I have seen these rascals drive the families of their masters to church, and so soon as they were set down, withdraw to a little distance and take up a half dozen of negro men and wenches, and dash them about the town, until towards the eve of the service, and then take their station before the door of the church, with much pretended gravity and decorum. I have known some of them, after driving the carriage home, to run the horses more than half speed to the carriage house, where (as is often the case) the carriage house is on the back street. I have seen our streets, (particularly the streets of our Summer ville establishments,) so .crowded with fine dressed negro men and women—some on foot, some on fine horses, some in gigs, some in ba rouches, and some in coaches, on an airing from the town to the country, on Sunday after noons, that our white ladies were afraid to put their teet out of their enclosures, even to visit a sick neighbor, &c. These things should not be tolerated. If there is not a check put to them, the time is not remote when the horrors of St. Domingo will be acted over again, without the aid of tiie Northern fanatics. I join “A Citizen,” in calling upon the citi zens of Augusta, and the authorities of the place, to look to this matter before it is too late. No slave should be allowed to dress as fine as his master--to “ strut as high, and stamp as loud as lie." The ladies should not suffer their maids in waiting to vie with them, in finery and fashion—for be assured, that in the same pro portion that you raise your servants up, you let yourselves down to their level.

AT the late meeting of the Alumni of Franklin College, it was unanimously resolved to be ex pedient to make arrangements to issue a monthly Lit erary magazine, to be called The Athenian. The undersigned were appointed by the Society a committee of publicaiion and joint Editors ol the work, until the next meeting of the Society. We have no interest in the work, except that which vve take in the welfare of the country and the honor of the State. We, of the South, have too long depended upon foreign parts for our Literature, ami neglected our own talents. We shall be weak so long as we think we are weak ; and dependant until vve make efforts to be independent. We hope all the frirnds of Literature in the State, and especially the Alumni of Franklin college, will patronize the enterprise both by word and deed. State pride, the love of Litera ture, our interest in the cause of general education, all call upon us to sustain an enterpriza so necessary to our improvement, and the honor of tlie State. A. S.
