„ has become exceedingly fashtonable among
\ u light politicians to abuse South Carolina,
E / ufv herTn*t Statesman, Mr. Calhoun. In

S-id subversion of the influence which
Remises by the power of to -S >«y intellect,
, a „,e charm and beauty Of hts unb!e,mshed ,n-
ity, and .potlen purity of character, which is as
’ as i, is undoubted. The other, and chief ob
is the destruction of the Democrat party by
s downfall.
ifeW* is rep resented to have said in one of
his vindictive moods, ift a speech in an adjoining
routin', dial South Carolina ought to be kicked out
hie Cnion. N° visions of disaster, or imaginary
^ncs of disruption, and anarchy rises before his
tempered vision, but that the great South Caro-
Statcsman, presents himself magnificently
and, and threatening before him, his lips invol-
tarily chatter away the old song of Lepedus Cai
ne, and the old Roman and Grecian Conspirators
more than a thousand years standing. His mind
hilt years, secins to bo suddenly recovering to
splendors and glories of the Union. His past
rsc contrasted with the part he is now acting in
poliiical drama, would lead us to infer that there
3 , a time the American Union presented no such
‘allowed glories to his enraptured vision ; that
while once yielding his assent to the course that
Car.,ii»a pursued, he then entertained opinions
T j,; c li he now wishes to ascribe to others. This is
,. ( only true and charitable solution that can well
i ( «jvcn to liiscourse, and the just estimate to be
need or. his present changeling position.
The true motive of Hampden’s haired and ma-
>;3ccv to Mr. Calhoun, can well be traoed to
. e an oppesite course. He knows that he is not
t |vardently attached to the Uuion, but in the lan-
■ igr quoted and verified by that pure patriot, or
ient and consistent Union man, Senator Huger,
it if there is in all this country, one man who
avr this Union more than any other, lie wishes to
t considered that man.”
That this is Mr. Calhoun’s true character all >n
'angina know, and that he is now opjrosed to nil
•fiipitate and separate State action is also geocr-
v known, lie is indeed, the true friend of the
Shame on thee, “Hampden,” for thy party ma
levolence, and for thy Anti-Southern feeling—who,
in seeking to make the tics of party stronger than
principle, or conscience—of greater and paramount
obligations even to the Constitution and your na
tive land—will conjure up in vour fanciful imagiii
aiioh, spectres, phantoms, and chhneias dire, a-
gainst your neighbors, rather than behold the con
fessed and open designs of those—your partisans
and friends, your allies arid co-wotkers—whose ob
jects and aims are tenfold more abominable than
a disruption of the Government. South Carolina
repels, as a calumny, that she loves the Union less
than any one—hut she cannot remain idle and in
different to the deep settled purpose of those who
ate ever vigilent in not only stealing the rights or
the States, but fraudulently intent on destroying our
household gods themselves. The attempt to stig
matize the character of her incorruptible Statesmen
will be as vain as it is futile.
Mr. McDuffie, in his Richmond speech, states em
phatically, that lie is opposed to any separate Siate
action now; and that time and reflection has convin
ced him that the course ptirstied by Carolina, altho’
correct in principle, was inexpedient. Would the
chivalric Huger give his sanction to any measure,
involving the perpetuity of the Union ? No—It is
the stale device of those who know*, by their past
discomfiture and their past history, what a charm
the Union has among all classes here, as well as
Carolina. They are anxious to desecrate that hal
lowed love of Union, to the concealment of their
measures and system of oppression—to perpetuate,

Awful conflagration and loss of life.
Our City has again been visited by a destructive
fire; about 1 o’clock this morning, our citizens were
aroused from their slumbers by the alarm of fire,
it having broken out in a Gun-Smith shop; occupied
by P. Roux, and immediately spread with great
rapidity, notwithstanding the extraordinary exet-
tions of our citizens to arrest its progress. Eleven
or twelve buildings were entirely destroyed, estima
ted in value, at about 35 or $40,0dd.
We have tie melancholy task also to record the
death of one of our most active and worthy citizens,
Mr. James Willingham. It was occasioned by
the falling in »f the front of a house which had been
blown down it part by powder.
By the deadi of Mr. Willingham our city lias
sustained the loss of an energetic and most useful
citizen—and tie democracy of Georgia ofa staunch
and unflinching supporter.
As a foreman in our office we have not only lost
a firm supporter in the great republican principles
fur which we tre battling, but a sincere and ardent
friend. In our next we will be more explicit. We
have stopped the press to insert this short and con
fused account of this catastrophe.

one at Washington suspected for a moment, that he
was against Annexation.
The charge of coalitioh against Mr. Chappell, so
insidiously harped upon, is in character with all
the unsupported assertions of “Ilampden;” and the
great sin of this honest man, consists iu the fact,
Hampden
mon, because he is devoting all his best energies, , . .
. ,... . . that he would not be advised by “ Hampden" to
,.J »rcat ability, to preserve it in the only manner t , ,
1 support Mr. Clay. All other evils and errors
would, with him, be cured by tiiat one act—a free
pardon to all other acts, was extended to him, and
his suffrage freely offered, if lie would hut give in
his adherence to his master, the Dictator of Ashland.
But the nublc Chappell spurned all his lures and
scorned all his proffered assurances. He but knew
his duty to his country; and so soon as lie became
convinced, by his associations at Washington, be
yond the shadow of a doubt, that lie was required to
yield up all his cherished Republican principles,
and sacrifice them to party, he preferred immola
ting himself upon the altar of Ilia country, rather
than ride in power, at the sacrifice of principle arid
honor. lie indeed, preferred “ the respect due to
1 consistent politicians,” by adhering to long cherish
ed poliiical ojiinitins—a strict construction of the
Constitution—railicr than bow to the will of aiiy
man or set of men. Ilow bright burns the fiame
of this noble sacrifice. His character shall live in
the pages of the history of his country, in living and
glowing characters. While those who hare “ bent
the pliant hinges of the knee, where thrift may fel
low fawning,” shall go down where they are sure

Ii is a well established fact in the character of the j

pinion of measures or men, it moves in aquimu-
* progression until it arrives at an opposite con
dition.
Ii is unfertunatoly.nlways the case with chartge-
ip in jwlitics, whenever men undergo a radical
inge in principle—in their views of the Constitu-
3, or measures they pursue with a relentless and j
anrscless opposition, those whom they fince ad-
iicJand looked up to, and the degree of feeling
inccd, arises most generally from the conscioas-

Hampden alleges as an evidence, that Mr. Cal-
jii is unfriendly Jo the Union, that he instigated
t late lamented Upshur, one of the purest, and
st intellectual men of the age, to clandestinely
lot, and hatch the Texas Treaty—that the agita-
ij the subject of slavery in the diplomatic cories-
p-ndence is itself proof of it. Is it possible that the
ties of out mighty dead arc slandered to foster
c insatiate appetite and poliiical hatred of parti
ta scribblers, that the fame of one brilliant in life,
“d lamented in death, even above all his peers,
Uld be tarnished and lowered to subserve the
■aided and malign opiuions of one who seeks to

One of our citizens, a Democrat, was recently riding in a
stage-coach, in an Eastern county. The conversation turn
ed upon political changes. A tV'hig asserted that there
were great changes every where, from Democratic to Whig.
Our neighbor doubted the assertion, aud asked him for
proof: wished him to specify—tell whereabouts these chan
ges were, Ac. He was nonplussed ; could not tell. Anoth
er Whig in the coach came to his relief; and said: “ 1 can
tell you where, lu my county. Niagara, hundreds of Dem
ocrats are turning Whigs.” •’Ah!” sa<d our friend, “do
you live in Niagara V’ “Yes, air." “Well. I am some
what acquainted there myself: 1 should like to hear who has
changed there—name some of them.” The Niagara Whig
went on to enumerate : “ Lawyer , and lawyer ,
Mr. . Col. , and Esq. , Ac., until lie came to the
nnme of the eery peril* he spa* addressing J—“Are you
sure that lie has changed 7” “ Yes, 1 know him well; he
has changed, and is making Whig speeches.” “You are
sure of it?” "Yes.” Our Democratic friend, thinking he
had got the coon in rather an uncomfortable spot, came oat
upon him. giving liis name, and telling him that he was the
very man he had been belieing; and that his story with refer
ence to others Af his neighbors was just as true as what he
had said with regard t<» himself. The Gery harlt of a dog in
a cornfield, is more effectual in putting a stop to the corn
stealing. than was ibis announcement in stopping the garru
lous falsehoods of this coon iu a stagc-cogcii. He made it
convenient to quit the company in a short time after.

The Committee on Public Property, to whom was refer
red the petition of James Goddard, Esff-. for lease of a small
fraction of tke Public Domain, adjoining his Lot. beg leave
to report that they have examined the piece of ground in
i question, and would recommend that the application be
granted. Among other reasons which have induced the
Committee to make a Report favorable to the petitioner are
the following: It is the wish of the entire neighborhood,
that the ground should be enclosed; it is the opinion of
those who reside near, that it would seriously affect the
health of their families to remain open and uncultivated.
Mr. Goddard has expended a large sum of money in impro
ving the public highway, leadiag to Rose Hill Cemetry.and
the disposition of the ground as requested, will not effect
the sate or value of the balance of the Public Domain—they
would therefore offer the following Ordinance :

of Macon, and it is hereby Ordained by the authority
of the same. That the Mayor and Council of the City of
Macon, do lease unto James Goddard for the term of ninety-

ground, for which lie has made application, lying in the rear
of his residence,and composing a part of Square 86, for the
sum of twerJy five dollars. The City Surveyor, under the
