HAIL STEWART! The battle has been fought, the contest is ovei;, and Stewart has gloriously triumphed beyond our jnrwt sanguine expectations. With, (according to the nett calculation of our opponents,) a ma j°r;ty of 103 votes against ns, vre have elected a ■State Rights Senator, by a majority of 29 votes, and with a young nag that never run over any track before, have given their swiftest horse a hard r; ice, and carried our Congressional Ticket by an average majority of 19 votes! Surely oar oppo nents must have “reckoned without their host.” But the contest was hard, as every man buck -1" 1 on bis armour and wsnt forward to the con flict; the former and lepiated vict. r e of our opponents enabled them to inarch forward with certain prospects of success—while the friends of • tate Rights, in consequence of their former de te.its, met the crisis expecting nothing else but fit n their fate would boas usual, determined, how e'er, never to give over the struggle, as long as ‘‘ ll "ms the least grounds to hope for victory; ‘"'l it, after so many conflicts and so many mis* ri l b,e defeats, they have at last, gloriously tri nnipned, their opponents need not he astonished , 1 ’* shouts of joy aud rejoicing should be ford in the camp. e congratulate our friends on this glorious tnuiuph of their principles, resting under the firm ! |j Cl ’ so long as wc discharge our duty faith •v’ victory will always perch upon our banner, ceitam success crown our every effort. . WE L L DON E B 188. edo not know when we w*ere more rejoiced “in when the glad news saluted our ears that our ,rie!ll 's had succeeded in Bibb. Ever since 1834, i '^I'n 1 ' n l he State Rights party were defeated by a ' Cl ' i ar gc majority.) they have been on the rise ap, i are at last enabled to shout a complete and hiuinphant victory. We must be allowed to con *ritulate our friends in Bibb, upon this glorious atorythey have achieved over the machinations ’ opponents, and hope that whenever they them at the ballot box they may always I )r ° v c alike succesful. The news f.om every section of the State which has come to hand, is highly gratifying and cheer ing to the (riends of State Rights, and by the in creased majorities to the cause, they have every reason to calculate on the certain success of their entire Congressional Ticket, as well as a majority in the Legislature. In this calculation liow’ever, we may be mistaken, as there is very little calcula tion to be made upon the Cherokee counties, but unless the changes have been very great against us we think we may fully calculate ou certain success throughout the State. We were fearlul that our opponents had been but too success!ul in their efforts to divide and dis tract the State Rights party, but we are more than rejoiced that our fears appear to have been with out foundation, as in the counties of which we w are the most apprehensive of danger, our friends have carried every thing before them.— W * begin to learn however, that the more noise our opponents make, th>‘ more desperate and hope less their case; and hereafter, when they again commence blustering and bullying, we shall take it tor granteJ that their prospects are bad. Now that th» State elections are over, it is high ly necessary that the people of Georgia should turn their attention to the next Presidency, as they cannot canvass too well the claims of those «’!io may be brought before them far their suffra ges. Great exertions are beiug made by the friends of Mr. Van Burenin Georgia to carry the State m his favor, by endeavoring to impress it upon the minds of the people that those opposed to the lit tle magician will give their support to Henry Clay, and then hold up to their view the political char acter of this statesman in the most unenviable light their imaginations can conceive. But this trick on their part to carry Georgia in favor of the Prince of Kit Jerhook must fail, as Henry Clay is as unpopular with the State Rights party as he is with them, and between Henry Clay and Martin Van Buren the. State Rights party will never choose. They are both as obnoxious to their prin ciples as Federalism and Consolodation can make them, and to support either would he a derelic tion from principle altogether unpardonable. Much has been said about a choice of evils, of which we are sick and tired. Are we always to be choosing between evils ? Must the South al ways submit to the choice of Northern politicians and support the candidates nominated by them whether those candidates advocate Southern prin ciples or no, because she may not perhaps be able to elect candidates of her own? So long as she thus succumbs to the will of those who attempt to dictate in this matter, she never will, she never ra« elect the men of her choice, and until she bursts the fetters with which she is now bound, a choice of evils will alwavs be her lot. w e some weeks ago announced our determi nation, at the suggestion of a cotemporary, to sup port those two distinguished statesmen and patri ots, ROB’T. Y. HAYNE, of South Carolina, and JOIIX TYLER, of Virginia, for these high and responsible offices, in the faith hi 1 discharge of which the South has so much interest. Let the people of the South but support such men, and they will discharge their duty to themselves, their children and their country. By a different course they will endanger the freedom of the country and the prosperity of the nation. iiiiiisMni We hear a great many complaints from QUV sub-, scribcrs whose papers are seat by the eastern route, that they receive them very irregularly, and sometimes not at all. We cannot give any reason why such a state of things should exist, as tlie Mirror is regularly mailed and to our certain knowledge sent from this post office at the proper time. The fault, however, must be in the negli gence or wilful corruptions of some of the l’ost Masters on the route ; and we would here take occasion to inform Post Masters who do not sub scribe to the paper, that it is very dangerous to be too familiar with those belonging to other people, as we understand a certain Post Master, (not a hundred miles from Lumpkin,) for making rath er free with a paper belonging to one of om sub scribers, has become very sorely afflicted, so much so that recovery is thought doubtful! Post .Mas ters, beware! Richmond court slip from the Chronicle and Sentinel office, dated the 2d instant, says. The election in this county yesterday resulted in the success of the entire State Rights ticket lor the Legislature, by majorities of from seventy-five to one hundred and fifty, and of the Congress ticket by majorities of from one hundred and fifty to two hundred. We kept our paper open until near daylight this morning, in order to give the returns, but are not able to do so with correctness except at the city box. The Columbus Enquirer of Thursday last, says, "So fir, the news is of the most cheering character. From Richmond, Baldwin, Greene, Bibb and Monroe, we learn of the success of the entire State Rights ticket. Iu Jones, Talbot and Stewart, we have gained three, one in each. In Muscogee, our friends will perceive we have gain ed two. The entire gain so far, in the Legisla ture, amounts to 12. Loss, nothing. The Uni on majority on joint ballot last year, we under stand, was 23 votes. We should not be astonish ed if Georgia were redeemed from the yoke of Van Burenism. The Fever. —The report ofthe Board ofjllenlth published this morning, shows that we were hap pily correct in our remark, made last week, that a decrease would be observed in the next Bill of Mortality. Thirty eight deaths, by Stranger's Fever, are reported by the Board, being thirty less than occurred in the last; but we are con strained to say that this reduction has arisen sole ly from the scarcity of subjects. Several pbysi-. THI2 GEORGIA MIRROR. cians, with whom we convers 'd a day or two since, expressed the decided opinion that ihe-**‘disßSse had not abated, but, if any thing, had assumed a more virulent character than during the preceding week. The last two days have been quite cool for the season, rendering thick clothing necessary for comfort,and we have reason to hope that this may check the lever—indeed we feel gratified to express the belief that our afflictions are approach ing a termination, and that there is, at present, a prospect of an early trost, which alone can be looked to as the certain assurance of our being relieved from the dreadful malady that has made such havoc among our transient population. Charleston Courier, 26 th ult. FROM FLORIDA. Sr. Augustine, Sept. 15.. Tie Indians. —Ou Tuesday night last, about 11 o’clock, Lieut. May, in pissing to his com mand at Fort Peyton, heard the driving of hor ses. He pushed on, and had just crossed the last bridge, when he heard the noise of a horse close following, and reining up, it passed a little ahead. To the hail, “who are you-—speak or I'll fire?” receiving no answer, at the distance- of three pa ces he deliberately discharged a pistol at a person who was leaning forward in the act of slqtping from the horse. This occurred within thirty yards of the fort, so near that the words were heard within. The sentinel immediately hailed, and was ordered by the Lieutenant to stand to his post. The following morning the horse en tered with an Indian’s sash in his mouth for a bri dle. and a blanket on his back. 1 lie pistol had been loaned with three buck shot and a ball; the ball was found io have struck the horse high io the shoulder, just behind the nark ; the shot are supposed to have taken effect upon the rider, from his position at the moment ol being fired upon. By judges of the different Indian’s characters, Wild Cat is believed to be this bold fellow, whose object seems to have been to approach without noise, strike the passenger with a bludgeon, and take his scalp, without alarm ing the garrison ; ;:»d had it not been for the noise necessarily made in passing the bridge the pro ject is likely to have succeeded. The pale-face is allowed to have acted with a boldness arid ad dress equal to the impudent courage of the red skin. In the morning, Capt. Miekler, with the vol unteers, and Lt. May, with some regulars, fol lowed them to the South. Capt. M. in taking a course to surround or cut them off, fell into the regular trail ahead, and with a few of the most advanced of his company, discovered the Indians in a spur of Cypress Swamp, near thirty miles from the post. They had disposed of themselves with a large pond in front, with a dense and ex tensive swamp behind. The parties saw each other at nearly the same moment ; the Indians who were seen were in number seven or eixhr; they brandished their rides in the air, giving their war-hoop, disappeared into the pnlmettoes. The Captain restrained his men from following and firing, as the Indians were two hundred yards off, aad were apparently making ready to give battle. But no more was seen of them, and pursuit in the country in which they were, would have been useless. They left behind a few articles, two skins of honey and their horses. The horses, it nppenr.-, they hn3 deliborafely driven up. penned, and taken from the King’s Landing only about a mile from this city, and were driving south, by the Fort, when the affair occurred with Lieut, May. This is but the history of a day in East Flori da, and may give an idea of the daring, aud pru dence of the Seminole, as will as the calmness with which he is sometimes met, at.-l the difficul ties of pursuit. There is no danger of course to be apprehen ded within the city, but we whisper a caution to the parties of pleasure, and such who find it ne cessary sometimes to be out upon disputed Terri tory. P. S. Yesterday afternoon, the Indians again made their appearance at Fort Peyton. By the steamboat Poinsett, Copt. Pock, from Garv’s Ferry, we have received the following in teresting intelligence from an attentive correspon dent. FOR’I’ KING, (E. F.), gepE 19. Dear Sir —One hundred Tallahassee Indians are in at Tampa Bay, negociating with General Taylor, in whom they have the utmost confidence. The Miekasuekies have sent in a message to the commanding General, requesting him to grant them a “talk,” and the result of which will, no doubt be. that they will consent to emigrate. The Indians in the vicinity of Pease Creek; have also signified that they are anxious fora talk; and in less than six months, we have reason to believe, all the hostiles will have left the country.” New-Orkleans Sept. 13. From Texas. —The steam packet Colombia, from Galveston, arrived last night, brings Us the Houston Telegraph to the sthiast. The elections had taken place. The Telegraph states that in Houston they were conducted in a highly creditable manner, though much excite ment prevailed. The following is the result in that county.—For President—Lamar, 67<V; Wil sou t 79.—For Vice President—Burnet, 629; lior ton,* 99 ; Rowe. 10. Whole number of votes pol led in the county, 734 ; of these were polled in the city of Houston, 555. In Barazoria, lion. Wirt. 11. Wharton was e lected Senator, and Col. John A. Wharton and Capt. Lewis P. Cook, Representatives to the Con gress. Col. Lamar aud Judge Burnet received overwhelming majorities in thatcQunty. Mosely Baker was elected to Congress from Galveston county, by a majority, of 95 votes over Col. Lynch. Col/Morehouse had returned from tlie West. He states that the Mexicans who had visited the bay of Corpus Christi, retired in a very precipitate manner, leaving about 100 barrels of Hour, and the boilers aud other apparatus of a steam engine, ap parently new, upou the beach. The latter was probably intended for the mines in the interior of Mexico. The Lipans had all returned to the Rio Grande. Trading parties of Mexicans were almost dailv arriving at Bexar front Laredo and other settlements of the Rio Grande. They, however, brought but little specie, the trade consisting chiefly in the exchange of horses, sugar and flour, for tobacco and various articles of merchandise. Ammunition and fire arms tit every description were freely exchanged with the Mexican/traders by the cittizens cf Bexar. The Cumanches had again broken the treaty recently made with the Mexicans, and within:: few weeks past committed many depredations iu the vicinity of Preidio de Rio Grande. A gentleman, recently arrived at Houston fYum the East, stated that the trifling difficulties withl the haudfui of Mexicans, at Nacogdoches, had entirely teased, and complete tranquility was res tored iu that section. The Cumanches, according to the Telegraph of tilt Ist, had madeseveral attacks upon the fron tier settlements, but had been defeated in every skirmish that had taken place, and it was suppos ed they would soon be tired of hostilities. A company of young men had recently returned from an exploring expedition to the region near the mouth of the San Baba. They foliowed the course of that stream to the distance of 40 miles above its junction with the Colorado. They rep resent the country as among the finest they had ever seen They found some specimens of gold and silver in the mountains, and state that the section in the neighborhood of Sandy closely re sembles the gold region of Georgia. We leant front the captain of the Columbia that there had been a severe storm at Galveston, which had raised the water to a greater height than it has been since the storm of October last. The wind still prevailed in the same quarter when he left, and it was feared that the island would again be flooded. Mr. W. D. Durham, a native of Norfolk coun ty, England, died at Houston, on tire 26th Au gust, aged 24 years. IJe was an amiable young • gentleman and had acquired considerable distinc tion in the war of independence. The young republic appears to be in a very flourishing condition, and her troubles with her hostile neighbours, the Mexicans aud Indians fast drawing to a close. A long aud glorious career no doubt awaits her. From the V. O. Commercial Bulletin. Nacogdoches, 29tli Aug. 1838. To the Editor of the Bulletin: As many exaggerated reports of the recent diffi culties to this portion of Texas have been, and I have no doubt will continue to be, circulated, I feel it a duty incumbent on me to correct them. 1 have not tuns to enter into a full detail of all the circumstances, but it is sufficient for tny present purpose to give the general outlines. We have in the immediate vicinity of this place a Mexican population of about two hundred and fifty men, able to bare arms; a large portion of these men have from the commencement of our struggle been opposed to us, and have carried on a secret correspondence with the enemy. The authorities of Mexico have for the last year or two had offi cers and agents, as well amongst the Indians re siding in Texas as upon the United States fron tier, urging them to commence bostillities against the whites. In this they are greatly aided by the Mexicans resident here, and had beyond question obtained from the Indiaus promises to engage in the war. When the Mexicans here took up arms, they immediately called upon the Indians to join them ; many of whom did and all were preparing to do so. They pitched their camp at the house of one of the chiefs of the Cherokee nation; but the timely appearance of an efficient force intim idated the Indians, who immediately withdrew from them, and sent the chiefs to our camp to hold talks of peace. A large portion of the Mexi cans then returned : some are here, and some have gone to Louisiaona; and about sixty of their lea ding men have gone to the Prairie Indians. The Indians in our vicinity profess now the greatest friendship; and in view.of an efficient force, which is now being raised, 1 Have not the least doubt will remain so. Your obedient servant, THUS. J. RUSK.
