RE DUCTION CON VENTION.
The election for Delegates to the Reduction
Convention, was held yesterday, throughout the
istate; and from the names we have seen an
nounced as candidates in the different counties,
wo presume that some of Georgia's most talent
ed sons w .11 participate in the deliberations of the
Convention, and we therefore trust that the plan ■
adopted by a Convention composed of such tal
ens and patriotism as we believe this will be, will
be such an one as shall meet the hearty approba
tion of the Unde people; such an one as will ac
complish the, end for which they have been elec
ted, a reduction and equalization of the represen
tation of the people in the Legislature; "and such
an one as w ill be of lasting benefit to the people
of Georgia.
There is a diversity of opinion, we find. atnonw
the people on the subject of Reduction. There
•r e same who believe the late latv bin:ling on the
( hvivention, and that the Delegates composing the
* otive ,(iqti will act in bail faith if they do not
observe it. requirements; while others arestrong
inth'* beii-f that the Legislature has no authori
ty, whatever, over a Convention of the people,
.andthat in dictating to the Convention, or mark
ing out tli" path in which it must travel, the Leg
i iaturc has assumed to itself authority that, by
ui means belongs to :*1 it ho ly, and therefore,
ir should be entirely disregarded, and the law set
zsidr, it iKrrquhemeuts and plans see 1 n obnox
ious to the Convection erthe people. With this
latter opinion we fully concur, believing, ns we do,
that it the Legislature has the power to dictate to
a Convention and command it what to do, that »*
was perfect nonsense to call a Convention, be
cause it has the same right to do for itself, what
ii requires and commands tho Convention to per
form.
1 here are many who contend, tli it if a Reduc
tion is made in the Sen teas pointed out in the
law, th<> mmority of the people will still have the
control id the Senate, and therefore, there w ill
not be an equal representation in that body, and
consequently will oppose a ratification, on this
f.iouiul. Others, (though not advocates of tli*»
plan laid down in the bill,) contend that the mi
nority should have the control it the Senate, be
cause it is absolutely necessary that the weak
should be protected by some power, and it' the
protection they receive from the Senate is taken
from them, they will be entirely at the mercy 01
tut majority, ami consequently will be left de
lencclcss. So believe we; it is a true remark that
the weak should be protected, the strong can take
Cdre 01 themselves. But if this protection is ta
ken away, it this prop is knocked from uuder
them, they will, assuredl/faH, never again to be
reinstated in their lights and privileges, but con
tinue exposed to the will ot tUe majority, who
' V, H- whenever interest shall dictate, trample them
in the dust, as scarcely worthy of more notice
than the insignificant worm that crawls beneath
their teet. W e are aware that the plan contem
plated by the law calling the Convention, does not
take this power from the minority, these remarks
ate only thrown out to meet those who contend
that the majority should have the control of both
branches of the Legislature.
We find, however, much opposition to the law
oi the Legislature, to that part particularly, which
refers to the organization of the Senate. We are
not ourselves, so much opposed to the plan as we
tire fearful, if it is adopted, the whole operations
ot the Convention w ill bo knocked in the head on
the first Monday in October next. We ore warm
advocates for Reduction, and therefore would re
gret exceedingly that any plan should be propos
al which would not receive the sanction of the
people. We are of opinion that the Convention
should guard against such a result, and in their
deliberations have an eye single to tiie pleasure of
tho people.
One ground of objection urged against Senato
l "and districts, or uniting two comities together, j
&• that the jealousies <>f f(je jwvij ft, will he arrrjs- 1
ed and a Reduction > o st. Fur instance,' make a
Senatorial district of Muscogee and Marion, what
representation »\ould Mariou ever li ve iu the
Senate ! . Mr. SC (,g ee is more populous than Mari
on, lias iu' jre talented uien, aud consequently
would the Senator, and Marion would
nevei\ t therefore, have any voice, part or lot in the
del’ aerations of that body, further than thisstran
r,er from Muscogee, who could know but little a
bout her interest would be able to give her
This, of course, would excite the jealousy of
Marion, and her citizens to a man, would be in
opposition to the measure. The opinion and
desire of those opposed to Senatorial districts is.
that the Senate shall not be interrupted at all, and
the Reduction made in the House of Represen
tatives, equally, according to population. To
this opinion we incline, for we fear any other plan
will receive the veto of the people.
Attempt, at Swindling . —A short time since, a
person applied to a ir.t reliant ofthis city, to obtain
an advance of four tliou-and dollars, on one hun
dred and sixty-three bales of Cottou, stored nr Sa
vannah, for which a receipt of storage was shewn
and exhibited. The merchant, to whom the ap
plication was made, stated that he could not make
the advance unless the Cotton was shipped at Sav
anah, consigned to him, and the bills of lading pla
ced in his possession, which, after some couver
sation, was agreed on hy ihe parties.
Some suspicion having arisen in the mind of
the merchant, he wrote to Savannah requesting a
fiiend to make inquiries whether the Cotton was
in store, giving the name of the person who pre
tended to own it, (HENDERSON) as also tlie
name of the one said to have instore (R. Capin.)
The answer was that no one of the name of Cajnu
was known m Savannah,Bor sould it be ascertained
that then was any Cotton iu that city, belonging
to a Mr- Henderson.
The same day that this letter was recieved, the
c iudler called on the merchant with a bill of la
ding ol 163 bales of Cotton, shipped on board the
steamer Penny, Capt. Penny, consigned to Win.
Henderson, 'file letter had no postmark, but was
endorsed, "borne by Mr. Hester,” aud drawn up
iu such a bungling manner as at once to convince
any one ot its falsity. The rogue soon found that
lie was suspected, returned to his lodgings, and
in the course of a very short period, shouldered
his baggage and decamped ; not however until he
had made a demonstration on the barber of the
Hotel, by endeavoring to borrow fifteen dollars
from him, in which, however, he was unsuccess
ful.
ile represented himself as .1 Georgia Planter, was
about 30 years of age, erect in his carrirge, sal
low complexion, well dressed, and spoke freely es
his acquaintances in Augusta, mentioning names
well known in this city.
It is noped that this notice may attract genera!
attention, in order to put others on their guard
and lead to his detection and puuishment.

GENERAL REMARKS RELATIVE TO
MOFFATS LIFE PILLS AND PHtENIX
BITTERS.
These medicines have long been known and
appreciated, for their extraordinary and immedi
ate powers ot restoring perfect health to persons
suffering u der nearly every kind of disease to
which the human frame is liable.
Iu many hundreds of certificated instances
they have even rescued sufferers from the very
verge es an untimely grave, after all tho decept
ive nostrums of the day lud utterly failed; and to
many thousands Ihe have permanently secured
that uniform enjoyment of health, without which
life itself is but a partial blessing. 80 great,
indeed has their efficacy invariably und infallibly
proved, that it hasappeared scarcely less than mi
raculous to those who were unacquainted with
the beautifully philosophical principles upon
which they are compounded, and ujiou which
they consequently act. It was to their manifest
and sensible action in purifying the springs and
channels of life, and enduing them with renewed
tone and vigor, that they were indebted for their
name, which was bestowed upon them at tho spon
taneous request ot several individuals wLoso
lives they had obviously saved.
Ihe proprietor rejoices in the opportunity af
folded by the universal diffusion of (lie daily press
for placeing his VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS
within tha knowledge and reach ofevery individ
ual in the community. Unlike the host of psr
nicious quackeries, which boast of vege’able in
gredients, the Life Pills are purely und solely
vegetable, and contain neither Mercury, Antimo
ny, Arsnic, nor any mineral whatever. * They are
entirely composed of extracts from rare and pow
erful plants, the virtues of which, though lon.r
known to several Indian tribes, and recently to
some eminent pharmaceutical chemists, are al
together unknown to the ignorant preteuders to
medical sci ncc; and were never before admin
istered in so happily efficacious a combination.
I heir first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the Stomach and bowels, the various impurities
and.crudities coßstantly setting around them ; and
to remove the hardened fasces which Collect in the
convolutions of the small intestines. Other med
icines only partially cleanse these, and leave such
collected masses behind, as to produce habitual
costiveness with all its train of evils, or sudden
diarrhoea, with its imminent dangers. This fact
is wellknown to all regular anatomists, who ex
amine the human bowels after death; and hence
the prejudice ot these w'o'l informed men against
the quack medicines of the age. The second ef
fect of the VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS is to
cleanse the kidneys ane the bladder, and by this
means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful ac
tion of which entirely depends upon the regulari
ty of the urinary organs. The blood, which
its red culer from the agency of the liver
and the lungs before it passes into the heart, being
thus purified by them, and nourished by food
eonaing froona a clean stomach, courses freely
through the veins, renews every part of the sys
tem, and triumphantly mounts the banner of heal
thy in the htooming cheek.
The follow ing are among the distressing v*arte- J
ty of human diseases, to which tlj» Vegetable!
Life Pills are well known to be iqfaßible:

first and second stomachs, and creatiuga #ow or

DIRECTION FOR USE.—The Proptie’er
of the Vegetable Life Pills does not follow the
base and mercenary practice ol the quacks of the
day, in advising persons to takehis Pills in large
quantities. No good medicine can possibly bo »<>
required. These Pillsare to bp taken at bed timo
every night, for a week or fortnight, according to
the obstinacy of the disease. The usual dose is
• roni 2 to 5, according to the constitution ol the
person. Very delicato persons should begin
with but two. and increase as the nature of the
case may require ; those more robust, or of very
costive habit, may begin with 3, and increase to 4
or even 5 Pills, and they will effect a sufficiently
happy change to guide the patieut in their tur
ther use. These Pills sometimes occasion fick
tiess and vomiting though very seldom unless the
stomach is very foul; this however may be con
sidered a favorable symptom, as the patieut will
find himself at once relieved, and by persever
ance will soon recover. They usually operate
within 10 or 12 hours and never give pain, unless
the bowels are very much encumbered. They
may be taken by the most delicate females un
der any circumstances.—lt is however recommen
ded, that those in later perriods of pregnancy
should take but one at a time, and thus cootinuo
to keep the bowels open and even two may bo
taken where the patient is very costive. One
pill in a solution of two table spoons full ol water,
maybe given to an infant in thefollowing doses
—a tea spoon full every two hours till it oper
ates ; fora child from one to five years of age,
half a pill—and from five to ten, one pill.
