Valuable School Books.
G R1GG A ELLIOTT'S series of common school rea
ders, _ No* 1. 2. 3, and 4. being the best series of
school reading books ever preseuted to the schools in Ueor-
gii.
Also—Dr. Ruscbenberger’s series of first books of Natu
ral History, comprising Anatomy and Physiology, Mamma
logy. Ornithology. Ichthyology, and Herpetology, Ento
mology, CooehoTogy, Botany and Geology.
It u not saying too mu-.-h of these books, that they are the
best, upon the snbjrcu of which they treat, that have ever
been prepared for the use of schools.
A knowledge of the merits of these books will insure their
introduction in the schools throughout Georgia. The intro
duction of new and valuable boons into oar school*, always
is an indication of a progression in education. These valu
able school book* are to be found iu almost every country
town in the State.
Of tbe very many recommendations, we have received we
present the following from Rev. Mr. Reman:
SIR:—Having with care examined the "new series of
reader* for schools," published by Messrs Grige A Elliott,
wit-tint hesitation. 1 give it as my opinion that they are ex
cellent books, well adapted to the purposes for which they
are designed and as a whole decidedly superior to any
thing of the kiod I have sees.
I have also examined Dr. Roschenberger’s “First Book
of Natural History (exrepuhe 8th number) with great plea
sure, and can moat cordially recommend these little volumes
to teachers, as eminently calculated to interest and instruct
their pupils in the subjects of which.

THE Sulucriber.Proprietorc?The Indian Spring Hotel,
for the last two years, would mu« respectfully inform his
friends anti patrons of this Stale, of comb Carotins. Ala
bama and its vicinities, that he has at a great expense,
erected a s tleudid HOTEL under the above name,
for the ample accommodation of visitors during the ap
proaching season.
This House will be opened on the 20th day of Msy next.
The McIntosh House ia io depth 250 feet by 42 wide—
contiins between seventy and eighty large aDa airy rooms,
together with three spacious Drawing Rooms and a splen
did Ball Room; large and wide Piazzas extending around
tbe Hotel—making it what has so long been desirril at this
Spring—one of tbe largest and most commodious Hotels
ever erected at any watering place in the Southern country.
During tbe last two seasons there has been much com
plaint for want of more accommodations for the hundreds
that daily flock to this well known and justly celebrated
watering place.
This season there shall bo no reason of complaint for
want of accommodations, or indeed any tiling connected
with this establishment.
The McIntosh House will accommodate over four hun
dred persons I
Neither pains or expense have been spared in furnishing
and fitting up this House so as to render it truly a house
for all wt o may favor it with their patronage. The furni
ture is all new and of the most sterling kind, having been
made up to order for ibis establishment.
The location of me Mclnioab House is on the brow of
the McIntosh Hi!!, overlooking the Spring, for many years
the residence of the celebrated Col. McIntosh of the Creek
nation, so well known and associated in tbe Indian history
of oar country.
The Subscriber, therefore, flatter* himself that in order,
comfort, and systematic arrangement, tbe McIntosh House
shall not be surpassed; and hopes from his continued ex
ertions to please, be may secure a shire of the public pat

POE TRY.
THE POETRY OF THE POOR'.
Robert Nicoll, the author of the touching
lines below, was" widely and favorably known
in England as the Editor of the Leeds Times,
and a young poet of rare promise. In a short
auto-biography, prefaced to a volume of poems
recently published in London, xre are informed,
that at thirteen, when a schoolboy, he began to
scribble for Lite the newspapers, and that at
sixteen.
** To further my progress in life, 1 bound iny
self apprentice to Mrs. J. H. Iiobertaon, wine
merchant and grocer, in Perth. When I came
to Perth, 1 bought Cobbelt’s English Grammar,
and, by constant study, soon made myself mas
ir-p of it, aud then commenced writing as be
fore, and you know the result.
I “When I first came to Perth, a gontleman
lent me hfs right to the Perth Library, and thus
I procured many works i could not get before
—Milton’s prose works, Locke’s works, and
what I prized more than all, a few of Ben-
tham’s, with many other works in various d©
partments of literature and science, which I
had not had the good fortune to read before,
“ I was twenty years of age in the month of
January lust, and my apprenticeship expires in
September next. By that lime I hope, by
close study,to have made myself u good French
scholar; and I intend, if I can raise the money,
lo emigrate to the United Slates of Norih
America.”
His sympathies were all with the poor, whose
privations and trials had made deep impression
upon his heart, and most of his pieces, as in
the following, contains some latent attack upon
the abuses to which the “toiling millions” of
England seem so hopelessly subjected.
Nicoll died at the age of 23.— Times.
WE ARE LOWLY.
. - We are lowly — very lowly —
Misfortuue is our crime;
We have been trod Jen under loot
From all recorded time.
A yoke upon our necks is laid,
A burden to endure;
To suffer is our legacy —
Tbe portion of tbe poor!
We*are lowly — very lowly.

JUDGMENT BELOW REVERSED.
Held that a bill of sale of a slave containing warranty of
soundness, cannot be transferred by Indorsement so as to“
veil in the transferee the right to sue in bis own name ou a
breach of the warranty.
Tbe act of '99 respecting the negotiability of Bonds, arid
other specialities, and promissory notes and other liquida
ted demands, whether for money or other thing, (Prince,
42G) by indorsement, has no application to bills df sale or
other mere conveyances, with or without warranty, but
most apply to such instruments only as are intended to se
cure the payment of a demand either in money or other
thing liquidated. Agreed on, and settled by the parties to it.

JUDGMENT BELOW AFFIRMED.
I Held that illegality of consideration cannot be given in'
evidence under the general issue.
The plea of the g -neral issue made it incumbent upon
the plaintiff to prove bis cause of action in manner and
form set forth in bis petition, and no more, which was done
in this cate by the introduction in ev.dence of the bill or
draft declared on. The Court was bound to presume that
the consideration was legal, nothing appearing upon the
bill to the contrary. The defendants then seek to avoid
this contract : n the hands of a bona fide holder by the
proof tendered. This is wholly inadmissible. The plain
tiff is called upon to reply lo matter «»t.ur> by ittW' «uhL-)i
had no* been plcdsd. ...J of winch he could not be pre
sumed to have had notice by the plea of tbe general issue.
Lumpkin. Judge, in delivering the opinion of the Court, re
marked that this court will hold tiartiris in their pleadings'
strictly to the Judiciary act of ’99. which provides that the
answer of the defendant shall be in writing, and plaroly,
fully and distinctly set forth th8 cause of- his defence.

We sre lowly — very lowly.
Nor house nor land have we;
But there's a heritage foe us, •
While we have eyes to see.
They cannot bide tbe lovely stars—
Words in creation's book —
Although they hold their fields and lands
Corrupted by our look!
We are lowly—very lowly, -
Aud yet the fairest flowers)
That by tbe wayside raise their eyes —
Thank God, they still are ours!
Our* is the streamlet’s mellow voice.
And ours tbe common dew ;
We still dare gaze on hill and plain,
Aud Held aud meadow too!
We are lowly— very lowly.
But when the cheerful spring
Comes for*h with flowers upon her. feet,
To hear the throstle sing.
Although we dare not seek tbe shade
Where haunt the forest deer,
The waving leaves we still can see.
The hymning birds can heat!
We are lowly — very lowly;
Our hedge row paths are gone,
Where woodbines laid their fairy hinds
The hawthorn’s nest upon,
Yet slender mercies still are left,
And heaven doth endure.
And hears the prayers that upwards nse
Ftom the afflicted poor!

the government of the Company, provided they ard not
repugnant to tbe Constitution or laws of this Stale, prohib

which the stock was sold and purchased by the plaintiff in

attch purchaser was the judgment creditor'.
Tnat such act was valid and binding, as between the

In the mountains, near the source of the
Platte and Arkansas, are many bold daring
traders and trappers who would take pleasure
in being organized into a mounted troop to
march to attack New Mexico. They would
make the most effective troops for such'a ser
vice that could lie obtained in any quarler.—
Their manner of lift*, their skill as marksmen,
and their knowledge of lite country, would
render them exceedingly useful, and most for
midable in an invasion of that country. If
five hundred or ,ot'e thousand of these troops'
were properly organized, they would soon be
able lo take possession of the upper provinces
and leave nothing but old Mexico to the gov
ernment of that country. This force would
be the most available, the most convenient tr>’
ilje scene of aeiion, and the least expensive
that coul l be brought against that portion of
the territory of Mexico; and . if aided by a
mounted volunteer force front .Missouri, would-
soon subjugate that part of the Mexican coun-
