THE INAUGURAL.
yfc yield <>»r Editorial space lo-d.ty to the
i U rural Address of President Polk. It is
able paper—frank, manly, and truly Ameri-
n j n its tone, and marches up at once boldly
j fearlessly to the subjects of which it treats;
j we are sure that it will need no particular
..mimendation from us, to direct the attention
■^e reader of every shade of political opin
io its merits, as an able State paper.
j,tif arrival of last evening’s mail we are enabled to
,b oar readers with a list of tbe members of Cabinet,
atrafrom die Washington Globe, ofilie Sthinsc.

^{President nominated to die Senate to-day—

IfTcrencc between the Profits of the
jmnufnctnrer amt the Planter.
\\ T e copy the following from the New York
press, a paper in the interest of the monopo
ly and no way interested in exaggerating
t ir profits resulting from the unequal Ta-
■flaw*.
The Express says:
Tb* Cotton manufacturing interest of this country is
,n a more prosperous condition than ever before.—
,-Kitions for an extensive business are every where
hig. and it will not be long before we shall have facto-
naaough to make cotton ponds for half the world. A
... present at Boston have secured the land on the
river, at Andover,.mn! in us,erect a large
-'jtt nf mmufactories. The additions to the mills at
.e'ljkerast year have been very large, which is also
(„f it Nashua. Manchester N H., and at Saco. The
Brunswirk, Me., and those near Portland, are un-
'fell way, at a profit. The reault of the Presidential
ghat, itwis thought, would check these enterprises, but
„ not been the case to the extent nnucipaled. The
i Jlills company, at Lowell, have declared a dividend
per rent, for six months; the Salisbury Manufacturing
-,nv. a dividend of live percent; and tile Great Falls
mst, s dividend of twenty dollars on each share."
!t appears that one company pockeis a divj*
of8 per cent, for six months, equivalent
16 per cent, per annum. Another 10 per
Ltmi another 20, and all litis wrung from
pockets, by the effects of u Tariff which en-
wthem and impoverishes us. Now let us
bow the planter prospers, ai d what profits
realizes in order to make him able to sup-
■tthem, and himself.
'•y the average of planters raise five bags
Jotton to the hand, weighing each four hun-
pounds, and sell it at 5 cents, the product
« hundred dollars. This is his income for
year from one hand. Let us see what ex-
are to he deducted from tins to get at the
profih
lie negro is worth say threo hundred and
dollars, the mule he ploughs worth seven-
re dollars, the land cultivated, worth one
drcd dollars. Suy the planter has the same
Mat of idle land, which is usual, and the
Is investment is then worth six hundred
twenty-five dollars, the interest on which
*ned at 8 per cent, would be fitly dollars.
i negro is to be provided with clothes, shoes
blankets, he must have meat and bread ;
inn, salt, bagging, and rope are to be
;ht, and taxes arc to be paid, the whole of
S according to our calculation is at least
ty-anc dollars. Now add tbe two items of
rest and expenses together, and the result is
tv-one dollars. Substract that front the
DproJuced and what is left—SlOOproduc-
the hand—$81 interest and expenses—
SI9 profit.
this calculation we have not counted intc-
tbe amount disbursed in the way of ex-
i which ought to ha ve been added, but let
pus. The planter has $19 left as the
i of all his toils !!!
what per cent, has he made on the
tions, during the session. On the passage of
Milton Brown’s annexation resolutions, Mr.
Stephens thought proper to vote for them, the
General of course thought ditto. But as Mr.
Stephens was absent at the time the resolutions
amended by Messrs. Benton and Walker in the
Senate, came back for the concurrence of the
house, the General having no file leader to fol
low, in the confusion of mind incident to being
left to his own resources, contradicted his pre*
vious vote, and went against annexation,
As Mr. Stephens had left Washington to at
tend Taliaferro Court, the General did “ as well
as he kttow’d bow,” under tbe circumstances.
•'TIIE SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR.”
We have received the March number of tais
paper. In point of appearance it is one of the
handsomest papers on our exchange list, and its
contents are of a very interesting ciiaracier.—
“ Dr. Porcher’s report on Manures” to the
Black-ottk Agricultural Society of South Car
olina, is an uble article ; it will upjiear in our
columns. General Hernandez’s letter on the
mode of culture of tobacco in Florida, is highly
interesting. We found many oilier articles in
the Cultivator, with which we huve been edified.
There is a class of gentlemen who imagine
they have a facility . of writing, and who fre
quently have an itching to say something in I for its final action,’ on "or

Triumph of Annexation.
The joint resolution offered by Mr. Walker,
and passed by the Senate on Thursday, was
adopted by the House of Representatives on
Friday evening—Ayes 132—Noes 76. Every
Democrat of the Hojsc, with the exception of
R. D. Davis of New York and Hale of New
Hampshire, voting for it-
The following is a copy of the joint resolu
tion and the amendment proposed by Mr. Wal
ker.
Resolved by the Senate and House of Rep
resentatives of the United States of America in
Congress Assembled, That Congress doth con
sent that the territory properly iucluded within,
and rightfully belonging to, the Republic of
Texas, mav be eroded into a new State, lobe
called the Stale of Texas } with a Republican
form of Government, to be adopted by the peo
ple of said Republic, by deputies in Convention
assembled, with the consent of the existing Go
vernment, in order that the same may be ad
mitted as one of the States of this Union.
Sec. 2. And be it farther resolved. That the
foregoing consent of Congress is given upon
the following conditions, and with the follow-
ing guaranties, to-wit:
First. Said State to be formed, subject lo the
adjustment of this Government of all questions
of boundary that may arise with other Govern
ments, and the Constitution thereof, with the
proper evidence of its adoption by the people
of said Republic of Texas, shall be transmitted
to the President of the United States, to be

ral papers and the bore of their editors and rea
ders. W
number, and hope Mr. Camak will exercise
the firmness necessary to exclude their crude
essays. We allude to one who signs himself a
Clodhopper, and confesses utter ignoranco of
his own business.
We sincerely hope the Cultivator will be
well sustained, as such a paper is needed in
Georgia; and we know no one so well quali
fied as Mr. Camak to give it character among
the people. But it hits to labour against the yet
fottnidablc cry of book farming, set up against
every attempt to centre tlie Agricultural know!,
edge of a people, and to submit their practice
lo the test of science and the experience of
others.
Suclt papers usually, so far as our observa
tion has gone, have lost their influence by ad-
mitting the inchoate pians of some young far
mer with more zeal than knowledge, to mislead
practical men into useless experiments, and af
ter expense and loss of lime they turn disgust
ed, away from all papers ot the kind. Ur the
editor turns speculator, and deals in Buden corn,
Morns Multicaulis, Berkshire hogs, and Cots-
wold sheep; and in order to thrive in that craft
has to mislead his readers into the belief that the
possession of those articles will, make bread,
meat and money Without labor. From our
knowledge of Mr. Camak, we think his clear
judgment, and wary caution will keep the Cul
tivator free of all sttch detestable humbugs.
We recommend his paper to the patronage
of all our readers.
All communications for the Cultivator are to
be addressed to James Carnak, Athens, Geor
gia, posl-paid. And orders for subscription
may be addressed to J. W. & W. S. Jones,

year, cash.
GEORGIA IRON WARE.
In passing the Store of Messrs. Charles
Campbell & Co., a day or two since, we ob-
served n number of waggons unloading of cast
Iron ware, pots, ovens, and other kitchen uten
sils. The circumstance of such articles en
tering town by waggons, induced us to inquire
where they came from. We learned they
were manufactured by Messrs. Moses Sc Ja
cob Stroup, in Cass county. 12 miles from
Cassville, and 4 miles from the Western and
Atlantic Rail Road.
The Messrs. Stroup have only one furhace
in operation at this time, but have another
nearly ready for business. The number of
persons engaged at this Factor)’, including the
families of the operatives, is 150.

t was great joy among the Whigs fora
l*hile on the night of the 26th ultimo in
I r ‘S'on. After a close counting of noses
®been ascertained that the resoluiions for
f -etation of Texas would command the
r" every Democrat, and of three patriotic

: the conscientious Senator overcame
'vs, and voted fur the resolutions, after
-eight hundred and forty-six.
Second. Slid State, when admitted into the
find but one of the kind in this ^ nion * af ‘ ef ceding to the United States all
public edifices, fortifications, barracks, ports,
and harbors, navy and navy yards, docks,
magazines, arms, armaments, and all other
property and means pertaining to the public de
fence, belonging to said Republic of Texas,
shall retain all tlie public funds, debts, taxes,
and dues of every kind which may belong to
or be due or owing said Republic ; and shall
also retain all the vacant artd unappropriated
lands lying within its limits, to be applied to
the payment of tbe debts and liabilities of said
Republic of Texas j und the residue of said
lands, after discharging said debts and liabili
ties, to be disposed of as said State may direct;
but in no event are said debts and liabilities to
become a charge upon the Government of the
United States.
Third. New States, of convenient size, not
exceeding four in number, in addition to said
State of Texas, and having sufficient popula
tion, may hereafter, by the consent of said
State, be formed out of the territory thereof,
which shall be entitled to admission under the
provisions of the Federal Constitution. And
such States as may bu formed out of that por
tion of said territory lying south of th Tty-six
degrees thirty minutes nftrth latitude, common
ly known as the Missouri compromise line, shall
be admitted into tlie Union, with or without
slavery, as the people of each State asking ad
mission may desire. And in such Siate or
States as shall be formed out of said territory
north of said Missouri compromise line, slavery
or Involuntacy servitude (except for crime)
shall be prohibited.
MR. WALKER’S AMENDMENT.
And be it further resolved, That if the Pre
sident of the United Stales shall, in his judg
ment and discretion, deem it most advisable,
Instead of proceeding to submit the foregoing
resolution lo the Republic of Texas as an over
ture on the part of the Uniied States for ad
mission to negotiate with that Republic ; then—
Be it Reiolved. That a Stale, to be formed
out of the present Republic of Texas, with two
Representatives in Congress, until the next ap-
portionmetit of representation, shall be admit
ted into the Union, by virtue of this act on an
equal footing with the existing States, as soon
as the terms and conditions of such admission,
and the cession of the remaining Texan territo
ry to the United States, shall be agreed upon
by the Governments of Texas and the United
States. . . „
Sec. 2 And be it jdrlltcr Resdhed, lhat
the sum of one hundred thousand dollars be,
and the same is hereby appropriated to defray
the expenses of missions and negotiations, to
agree upon the terms of said admission and
cession, either by treaty to be submitted to the
Senate, or by articles to be submitted to the
two Houses of Congress, as the President may
direct.
The following atrocious slander on the New
York aristocracy, appears in the London John
Bull of the 15th ult. We dont believe a word
of it,although it does somehow look a little like
nature. Butthe English get so many hard raps
for their bad manners from their Continental
neighbors, that they ought to be allowed to vent
tlleir revenge on somebody, and tlie parvenus
of ull nations are legi tnnite game.
A YANKEE ARISTOCRAT IN PARIS.
Do you think that, among your very numer
ous readers, you liaVe any one sufficiently im
aginative to be able to picture to himself a Yan
kee aristocrat T Pray dont laugh—“-upon my
word I am saridus-Mlan a reader imagine what
sort ofa ‘‘critter” one of the American aristoc
racy can be! I am aware that no such animal
can be found in any menagerie, nor is it men 1
tioned in any work unnatural history; but it
exists nevertheless, and specimens of the spe-
cies maybe found, occasionally, of all places in
tbe world, in ihe Purislan salons. I myself in
the course of this present winter, have met sev 1
era!. They might, on a hasty glance, be ta
ken for ordinary men; but when one examines
them with attention, it is easy to perceive that
their looks nre wilder, their manners ruder,
their voices louder, their faces uglier, and their
the lady-*-a napoleon. “Monsieur!” she ex
claimed in indignant astonishment. “Oh. Ma
dame, it is quite e.i your service—take it!”—
The self-satisfied smile of the Yankee aristo
crat, and the insulted expression of the lady’s
face, threw the guests into a fit of laughter ;
but it was not until the hostess with a very
stern and unmistakable manner, cried, "Take
up your money, sir !” that the Yankee could
comprehend that lie had committed some gross
gaucherie, Dnd even then lie exclaimed in an
aside to a friend, “ I wonder what on airth
them that infernal critters are Iarfitig at!” In
case any incredulous feader should he inclined
to think that a member even of the “ aristoc
racy” of Yankee land could have been 90 ig
norant of the commonest usages of society as
to offer a lady a piece of money, I beg to as
sure him that I have it on unquestionable au
thority that such was the undoubted fact; and
jo proof that the man is what he represents
himself to be, a person of distinction in his own
country, I may mention that the American
Ambassador, Mr. King, having, as is usual
on such occasions, received permission from
Louise Phillippe to invite a certain number of
his countrymen to the ball given by His Ma
jesty last evening, selected this very money—
giving man as one of the squad—a thing, it is
almost needless to say, he would not have done
had he not really been one of the aristocracy of
the United States, del! What a queer ar
istocracy that same must be !
Aldrriaget—How differently do youth and
age argue on that matter, and how very oppo
site are the circumstances which it throws into
the scale of imaginary happiness. Both may
be erroneous; but when the path of life has
been trodden, and all its early blandishments
and bloom are fallen into the sear and wither
ed leaf, how few they are who know how to
recall the time when their bosoms beat with
other aspirations than those of wealth or title,
or any of the items \Vhlch make up a marriage
of convenience. If the aged could be less dry
and hard, the young might, perhaps, become
less impetuous and headstrong.
On men of lighter minds, the vices of the
world, and what are too lightly named its fol
lies, act in a different way, and only serve to
render them frivolous and contemptible 5 hut
on characters of a deeper stamp, if these ob
tain a stray, it becomes of greater rtiagiiitude,
of more extensive evil. To every individual,
indeed, as a responsible being (In which light
none can be passed over or considered value
less,) the terrible consequence* of ill-conduct
are equally momentous; but, as f ir as re
spects others, it is the one distinguished above
the common kind, whose actions, habits and
opinions assume a consequence; which, like a
beacon light set on high, becomes a warning
or an example to multitudes.
Lightning and Manure.-— It has been dis
covered in England, ttiat electricity—real light
ning—^conducted by wires to tbe earth, great
ly promotes vegetation, and persons are en
riching their grounds by this new (or rather
newly applied) stimulant. We hope good will
come of it. This generation is certainly ful
filling its ddstiny. It Is becoming the “ utilita
rian age” with a vengeance, which brings
down from the clouds tne lightnings of heaven
to manure the cornfields! Tlie guano trade
will be broken up entirely, and a tempestuous
season, with vivid lightning, will be worth for
ty muck heaps and stable-yards. And yet it is
probably true that lightning tan be made to
promote vegetation ; that it can be Conducted
to the required spot, and made subservient to
the desired object—and if so, man has another
cause of gratitude to the Giver of Good ; for
lie may now lay his hand Upon the mam of
lightning, and render it not merely innoxious,
but directly and visibly use:ul. Let him, in
the use of tnc element, not forget Him,
“Whose hand the lightning forms.

O. It. Prince, ICsq.—You will please pub
lish the following article, taken from the Co
lumbus Times, ns 1 believe it embodies the feel*
ings of a large portion of this community.—The
Southern States, cheerfully gave their assent
to laws preventing the introduction of negroes
from Africa, in order to avoid too numerous an
accession of black population. In 1840, the
Legislature of Georgia passed a law, with tlu , d' reS3 more grotesque, than those of civilized
fievrare of Counterfeiters,
Ten dollar gold pieces counterfeit in circula-
lation.
A villein who fluid his name was Hamilton stopped at my
house in Houston county on Monday night last—and whild
there he pissed off to me and others at my house, six pieced
representing American gold coin of $10 each : but which
upon inspection and comparison with genuine cojn, are as
certained to be bdse connterfeits* Said counterfeit pieces
Weighing each about as much as 4 genuine $5 piece would
weigh. This scoundrel, no doubt, is travelling for no othef
purpose than to Impose tipon the unsuspecting citizens of
the country this spurious coin, ns from circumstances I have
learned, I beliei'e that he had a la-ge quantity of it in his
Saddlebags. He pretended that his residence was in Ar
kansas; and that he won on hits way to South Carolina upon
business, am! would return in about four weeks—when, he
pretended, hr would redeem it; dud begged me to keep it
and let hitri have it back as he returned, as he did not wish
to part with it finally. The fellow made out such a fair sto
ry, that I did not even notice the pieces with any particular
ity. He appears to be about 25 years did; fair Complexion}
dark liatr reaching nearly down to his shoulders ; and is
about 5 feet, if or 10 inches high. Had on dark Colored
overcoat and pantaloons, and green baize leggings. His
other clothing not noticed.

excite great curiosity in the salons dores of tlie

are much commented upon. An anecdote of
one of them, which is characteristic of the
whole species, may be worth relating for the
edification of such of your readers as take plea
sure in the. study nf natural history. This
man—I call him a man, though l am not sure
he isn’t half horse and half alligator—this man
is continually vaunting himself as belonging to
one of the most ancient, most wealthy and
most distinguished lamiliesof the United States
of America. Delias admission to the salon of

NEGRO TRADING.
A writer in the last Enquirer, under the signature of
"Censor." gave a hint to the '•speculators” (as they are
technically railed.) that the Penal Code of Georgia, against
their trade ia in full force, and promised that he would
furnish a prosecutor to look after those who should be
found infringing the Law atter the fi r at inst.
The Law in question is one dictated by wisdom and
sound policy. It is essential to the preservation of the in-
s«iI j;iqn of slaverv itself as it now exists, as we might rea
dily show, did time and space permit. It is sufficient to
remark, that if Maryland and Virginia are permitted to
pour their surplus slave population upon us, that very soon
public opinion in these States., will begin to assume the
type of negro philanthropy further north, und two power
ful States will be changed from friend* and co-defenders
of this institution, into its opponents.
The cotton planters of Seorgia will readily admit, too,
' 108 not require any addition to the

of cotton. And the owners of negro property ^ will need no
argument to convince them, that the value of slaves is not
to be augmented by the overstock of the market, supplied
from the two Potomac States.
Let the law be enforced then,* not in Columbus only, but
throughout Geotgi, We hope to see all the State, of the _
South-Went adopting similar laws, and putting an end to • yQ ( | vvill accept that — ! and after lUm-
