The dissensions among the Methodist body, which origin ally afosc at Leeds in conse quence of the attempt made hy members of that pcnuiasion fre quenting Orange Chapel, in that town to have an organ e rected therein to accompany divine service, and which was objected to on the ground, as alledgi (!, of its being a depar ture from the original simplici ty of the doctrines and observ ances prescribed by the found er of their religion, John Wes ley, came before the late con ference in London for decision The decision was against the innovators, as the church music admiring Methodists have been called. This, how ever, has not had the effect, of reconciling the Non Confor mists, who, instead of succumb ing to the decision, have had a meeting of their own body to consider what course they should adopt. The result of their delibera tions lias been that • tliev have determined on erecting the or gan. For the purpose, they have employed un eminent or gan builder, who is at present in London, engaged in the completion of hs erection. It will he opened in the most so le n manner in the course of next week, and Mr. Charles Wesley, a relative to the found er of the Methodist connexion, is expected to perform on it, for the first time, on the occa sion. They have gone further, and. at a meeting on Wednes day, determined to form them selves into a distinct religious body, under the designation of the ‘Wesleyan Protestant Meth odists.* A solemn protest a guinst the decision of the Con ference tv as also subscribed hy • the Trustees, stewards, local preachers, and leaders of the non conformists, on behalf of the Members generally. Tliev • • also subscribed a solemn de claration of the motives and grounds of their proceedings. I heir protest, among other matters, declaims against the effects of that unchristian and irresponsible authority exercis ed by the preachers, and con firmed hv conference, in mak ing. altering, suspending, or ab rogating laws binding upon the whole Methodist body, without consulting the societies, or any persons appointed on their be half a power assumed hv no other Protestant authorities in the world, civil or ecclesiastical. ‘I hey also protest against the Conference securing to them selves the property of the con noxion it* the chapels, schools, &c, built by the people, and for the debts upon which the Trusters alone are responsible. They protest against j alterations which they say have de. stroyed the primitive simplicity of Methodism, and defaced its original character, and against forms of gov ernment, terms of authority, and titles of distinction, assumed by the preach ers, not only without tie sanction of the Rev. John Wesley; but in contra diction and contempt of his recorded judgment arid writings and even a gainst the laws of the connexion. They protest, finally, against submit ting any longer to the unlimited au thority of the preachers, as contrary to Christianity, the practice of the pri mitive church, and -lie privilege of English subjects. Founded on the sentiments contain ed in this protest, they came to a se cies of resolutions, the principle, of which was, that it became the duty of ail friends of Christian liberty to u nite in opposing su< h arbitary pro ceedings, which are contrary to the New Testament, to the canons of the ( huirh of England, and to the usages of every Protestant Church in the world. A Committee was also nom inated to communicate with the differ ent Societies in the United Kingdom, and to prepare suitable laws for the new society, as consistent a$ possible with the original rules of the Rev. John W esiey to be finally submitted to the whole society. The number of seceders in Leeds, alone, amounts to 2,000. It is expect ed they will be joined by at least 50,000 more of the connexion through out the United Kingdom. Late Foreign News. Arrnunts are received in New- York of the surrender of Maderia to the fleet of Don Miguel. I The royalist troops revolted, and threw down their arms at the ap proach of the Lisbon troops—the Governor th and on boaid of a British sloop of war for protection. The of ficers of Dun Miguel has seized most of the nobility, put (hem in irons, am) sent them off for Lisbon. From two to three thousand us the inhabitants had left Madeira for the Western Islands and foreign ports. The of ficers of Don Miguel allowed the peo ple from the country to descend and rob and plunder the inhabitants of ev ;ery thing. The rebel squadron would proceed to Terceiri. Despatches from Lord Heytsbury, dated at Odessa, Aug. 28, bad arriv ed. They state that Count Woron zow, (now Governor of Odessa,) was Ito take command of the army before Varna, in place of Prince Memhi koff, who was dangerously wounded in the vigorous surtie made by the Turkish garrison.—There was con siderable sickness in the Russian ar my, and among the deaths was men tioned that of Gen. Benkendorf, a brother of the Princess Leiven, an officer of great merit, and highly es* teemed. Nothing material had occurred be fore Cliunda, except that Gen. Rudi ger had sustained a check in conse quence of advancing too far in pur suit of a Turkish corps, which he had driven back. He is said to have lust one gun, and 200 men. from st. thomas. —By the schooner Centurion, rapt.

We have no further particulars as yet. Four of” the gang are under examination here, and it is generally supposed they will share the same fate.

Jlmerican Sentinel. OHIO! The various contradictory statements of the two Nalionals about the vote of Ohio, have made a little more concert ne cessary and this morning they are caief-.l in their omissions making a small majori ty for Trimble, for Governor, and upon these calculations , cry out, that Ohio is for the Administration. It ig in vain that they atfepmt to envelope cur triumph in the mist of disasters. The results re ported through the papers are the first ru mors are info circulation under the strong excitemenjt of party success. The Jack son majorities have no doubt been in soon cases exaggerated by the Jackson men; and the same may be said of the majon ties claimed for the Administration. Wt have endeavored to arrive at the truth, b\ a comparison of all the light b fore us, and cannot yet determine whether Camp bell or Trimble is elected. Our opinion inclines to the election of Campbell. No speculation of ours can, at this late moment operate upon the result. We would say to our friends elsewhere, that we believe that Ohio will vote for Gen. Jackson; but let no one rest satisfied—let each man elsewhere do his duty—let all act as tho’ the salvation of the Republican party rested on his vote, and all will be well. V. S. Telegraph. CABINET. O Jill ft EATON, NOV. 8, 1828. ELECTORAL ELECTION. The election which took place in this county on Monday last, for Electors of President and Vice President of the U. S ates, terminated in the complete over ihrow of the Clark and Adams Tickets. The following is the result: TROUP TICKET. Blackshear 565, Clayton 565, Rood 565, Rutherford 565, Graves 564, Maxwell 564, Porter 563, Moore 560, Terrill 558. CLARK TICKET. Hatcher 15, Newnan 4, Penticost2, Leigh 3, Stewart 3, Cunningham 2, Burnett 2, Mitchell 2, Milner 3. ADAMS TICKET. Birch 1, Murray 1. The day set a part for the election of Electors treads so closely on the heels of our general election, that it is almost im possible for the people, generally, to exer cise on each occasion, the valuable right of suffrage which is so justly conddod to them. Our days of election are multiply ing too fast—lt is not only a serious inter ruption to the Planter, Merchant, and Me chanic, to be called away from their avo cations three or four times in the course of the year, but it also tends to defeat the great object of the elective franchise, by thiowing unnecessary obstacles in the way |of a general expression of public senti i ment. For instance, this County, which can poll 1100 votes, retuned on Monday last, from the cause to which we have al luded, onl y 565—and It ft the Troup l it k et minus, at least 500. Let the evil be remedied. Heturjis from Columbia. Reed 245. Clayton 240, Black-bear 237 Terrill 235. Rutherford 236 Maxwell 234, Moore 239, Graves 231, Porter 231. Newnan 187.

We have seen returns from several oth er counties, for which we have not room: !□ all of them the Troup ticket triumphs. FROM MILLEDGEVILLE. On Thursday last the Legislature'elec ted K. S. Shorter, Judge of the Ocmulgee Circuit —W. W. Holt, Judge of the Mid tie Circuit—A S. Clavton, Judge of the Western Circuit—C. B. Strong, Judge of the Flint Circuit—T. G. Holt, Judge of the. Southern Circuit—Win. H. Craw ford, Judge of the Northern Circuit—and Davis, Judge of the Eastern Circuit. O i die same day, George M. Troup, th * able and triumphant defender of State Rights, was elected one of our Senators in Congress. Asitiught to be, he had no op-msition. Mr. Storks was elected President of the Senate, and Mr. Hudson Speaker of the House of Representatives. To the form er body Mr. Hansoll was^elected Secta ry, aid to thp l atl er Mr. Dawson Clerk Mr Darn 11. Messenger, and Mr. Smith, Door Keeper to the Senate— and Mr. Mr.Zachry and Mr. Stapleton to the same otlit es in the House, were also elec led. THE GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE Did not reach us until yesterday, which precluded the possibility of laying it be fore our readers in to-day’s Cabinet.- We regret this circumstance, as it is a State Paper highly creditable to the good *ense and patriotism of his Excellency.— Among the numerous interesting topics embraced in it, the Tariff occupies a con spicuous place. Retaliatory measures in the shape of State prohibitions, are very properly denounced as indefensible and unconstitutional. In the emphatic lan guage of the Message, “The [Tariff] Law must perish where it was born, under the force of public opinion.*’ We take this occasion to express the high satisfaction we have experienced in the general administration of Mr. For -vth. We knew him as a polite scho lar, as a man of genius, and as a politician of libera! and enlightened vmws—But, we had thought he was too fond of literary ease to tie himself down to that dull rou tine and fatiguing minutia which are so indispensable to the character of a prat ti cal Statesman. He has. however, con vinced us, that the qualifications of the one are not incompatible with those of the other. The critical attention with which he presided over the deliberations of the last General Assembly, was sufficiently evinced in the frequent exercise of his ve to upon several acts of loose legislation, which he returned to that body. If a stronger evidence were wanting of his close and discriminating attention to the details of office, we will find it in his re cent correction of the negligent and infor mal manner in which our elections have been so long conducted. This untiring assiduity to business—this independent exercise of his executive attributes, has already introduced a salutary reform into the affairs of State, which we hope it will be the pride of each succeeding Adminis tration to imitate. THE STATE HOUSE. “This is the house that Jack built.” What would you think, gentle reader, ; if you saw cur neat and elegant Irving, (him of the Sk- tch Book we mean) strad dling the rouj-h and uncouth, yet us. ful Bun van?—or, to carry the comparison a li'tle farther, how would you like the go thi( magm(Fence of Byron associated in boid reli f with the modern rubbish of that log cabin genius the Eftrick Shep herd? Don’t you ♦! ink, lha* the Did Man of the Sea, upon Sindbad’s back, would be a tragedy , when placed by the side of such ludicrous associations? Verily, you would. Th<n. if you are a laughter lov ing soul, go ar and look at oui State House. In plain English, we are really sorry to see such a beautiful and classical style of architecture, as the North end of our State House presents, blended with the clumsy and disproport oned parts of the original fabrick—lt is enough to put out the eye of ary aitist of common taste. We Ip pe, h vvever, that a co: responding style will be made in the building, as suggested at the close of the following article from the Geoigia Journal. The pile will then be w orth looking at. “The North end of the State House, now nearly finished, in plain Gothic style, has a very fine appearance, when viewed from Jefferson street. Twenty-two feet have been added to the length of the Re presen’ative Hall—the desks and chairs hate been removed, and cushioned seats substituted—thus adding greatly to the appearance of the room, and the ccnvenV
