THE MISSIONARY. MOUNT ZION, MONDAY, DECEMBER 3 We believe an opinion is generally entertained by the well-informed part of the community, that the time has now arrived when something should he done by Georgia to euable her to keep pace with her sister States in those great schemes of publick utility which ore rapidly enriching, strengthening and adorning their political eocie. ties, and elevating the confederated republick to a higher pinnacle of real glory than has ever been attained by any notion under heaven. We are well aware that our countrymen are ridiculed by foreigners for indulging in wild and splendid dreams of national greatness ; and we are not so sanguine as to believe that America is “ destined” to the first rank in the scale of nations because we have proceeded so far and so rapidly on our march to the point we have in view ; or because our present prospects are bright and flattering.— Our belief is grounded on the fact, that a spirit now pervades in a greater or less degree, every State in the Union, which, if not checked by some untoward calamity, will effect for the American Republick, that which other and older nations have never achieved by the most uninter rupted series of victories and conquests. As in the pursuit of all other worldly objects, our suc cess must depend, under God, on our oum exer tions. We cannot sit idly down, and rely upon some unforeseen cause to facilitate our progress in national improvement and political and moral distinction. It is indeed ridiculous, to predict that we shall become a great and powerful and enlightened nation, because our territory has.be come immense, our settlements extending as if by mogick. and our population and individual wealth increasing with unexampled rapidity. If the strength and glory of a state depend on physical force and the wealth of her subjects alone, the re'publicks of Greece would have melted away be fore the countless legions of Xerxes, and the mad man of Macedonia would have been any thing else than the conqueror of empires, The popula tion of a country constitutes the crude materials from which must be formed the temple of a na tion’s greatness ; and in proportion as these ma terials are polished and improved,will the strength and beauty of the edifice be increased. People North America with as many millions as there are now thousands, and take from this mighty mass of flesh and bone and sinew, all moral principle, all national pride and publick spirit—subject these millions to the dominion of ignorancg and avarice—let them live only for themselves , and like the plants around them “ vegetate and die,” and where would be this modern Persia when the treasures which nature had lavished upon her should excite the cupidity and stimulate the am bition of another Alexander ! It is only in wise publick institutions, political, literary and moral—in the improvement of inter nal advantages—in the readiness of the people to sacrifice a portion of private interest to publick good—and in the general extension of knowledge and the principles of rational freedom among all classes of population, that a state can expect to find that strength which shall protect her from foreign hostility, and that virtue which can save her from the secret and more dangerous treache ry of demagogues in her own bosom. These constituents of power and safety are par ticularly essential to a representative government. Without them, all experience has demonstrated that a republick cannot exist. And yet, strange as it may seem, men wlio are not deficient either in talents or patriotism, with a full conviction of this great truth impressed upon their minds, have acted in a manner calculated to induce the belief that they were totally ignorant of its plainest dic tates, or were bent upon a policy diametrically opposite to that which it enforces. Need the careful observer travel out of the State of Georgia to find examples which will justi fy this remark ? We only ask the unprejudiced and candid reader to review the course pursued by the Legislature in relation to the disposition of the publick lands for several years past, and say if the real interests of the body politick have been subserved by the policy adopted—a policy which has sacrificed to the individual emolument of one generation, that which in part belonged to, and should have benefitted another. If the selfish maxim, let posterity take care of itself, is a part of our political creed, then indeed our professions and practice have exactly corresponded, and no more remains to be said. But so thought not the fathers of our revolution, when they staked their lives and every thing which they held dear in the world, upon the issue of a contest which might have been avoided by the payment of a few paltry taxes. Publick property should be devoted to publick purposes. But what advantage has the great body of the people, as a political association , derived from tiie late dispositions of the publick lands ? We ask the question, aud before the read er shall answer it in his own mind, let him cal culate the revenue which the state would have derived from their sale to actual settlers, even at half their estimated value—let him look into the publick coders—let him travel, in imagination, (we have not the heart to send him in any other waj) over the most populous and wealthy portions of the state, and view the situation of our great publick roads—roads over which are conveyed the staple of the laud, the rich reward of the hon est and industrious farmer—let him view the bridgeless creeks, on the banks of which the wea ry wagoner and his jaded beasts are compelled to quarter themselves,and abide the“ peltings of the pitiless storm,” until the superfluous waters shall have passed by, and estimate the expense and waste of time occasioned by these delays—let him look upon the encouragement afforded to Education —to thousands of children who are to be the future men of the republick, grow ing up in ignorance and consequent vice, many of whom, could they receive the advantages of literary instruction, might perhaps become the pride and boast and ornament of their country let him attentively consider these things—ant} if his reason and his conscience upbraid him not, let him raise his voice for the Lottery System ! W e believe there is a reaction of publick senti ment on this subject; and that the next genera tion will not be the first to deplore the errours Os present day. There is certainly an increas ing solicitude manifested by the people of this state with respect to the measures which the pre sent Legislature will adopt upon the great sub jects of Education and Internal Improvement. They feel that it is high time something should be done, and done too with a spirit and a zeal which shall secure publick confidence in the ul timate success of the plans adopted. Upon the subject of education, much has al ready been said in the publick papers; and the manner in which it is noticed in the Governour’s Message must bring it directly before the Repre sentatives of the people. To them is com mitted the great duty of giving it a serious con sideration ; and with them rests the responsibility of giving the fund already appropriated for the encouragement of useful learning, a direction which will best promote the objects of its invest ment. The opening of roads and the construction Os bridges is scarcely less important. That a great majority of both Houses are decidedly in favour of appropriations for these objects there seems to be no doubt; but in regard to the amount and the manner of executing the contemplated im provements there appears to be a great diversity of sentiment; and we are not without our fears that this difference of feeling will defeat the adop tion of any decisive and-permanent measures on the subject in question. For ourselves, we have not a doubt that liberal appropriations for these objects would receive the sanction of a vast ma jority of the people. Let them once enjoy, though it be only in a limited manner, the advan tages of an improvement which will enable them to convey their produce to a market in a much shorter time, and consequently at a reduced ex pense, and know too, that this improvement will be permanent—in short, the advantages of Good Roads and Good Bridges —and we do not hesi tate to say, that in a few years the State of Geor gia will be little behind any of her sister states in the facilities afforded to land conveyance. Should the Members of the present Legislature close the Session without having done something besides talk upon the great business of Schools and the improvement of those advantages with which a bounteous Providence has endowed us, will their constituents hold them innocent ? Rev. Daniel Duffey will preach the Funeral Sermon of Maj. Charles Abercrombie, at his late residence near Sparta, on the 25th Dec. nest. State Legislature. The General Assembly are still engaged chiefly on business of a local or private nature. Before the House of Representatives is a bill to repeal the act allowing Debtors the privilege of prison hounds; and also, one to provide for the perma nent endowment of the University. This last bill proposes to make an annual appropriation-for the support of the University of SBOOO, in lien of the property from which the funds of that Insti tution are now derived. The hill to fix the sala ries and fees of the publick officers, has passed the House and is now before Senate. It makes no alteration in the present salary us the Goveruour, Judges, Attorney and Solicitors General. The Salaries of the other State Officers and the fees of county officers are reduced to the old standard, prior to the increase of compensation in 1818. It will not, it is thought, pass the Senate in its pres ent shape, if it does at all. [S. Recorder. Col. E. Harden has been elected Brigadier Gen. of the Ist B. Ist. DiVn. and Col. Shorter Brigadier Gen. of the l3t B. sth Div. Georgia militia. General Intelligence. FOREIGN. The ship Cortes arrived at N. York on the 18th nit. from Liverpool, which port she left on the 9th Oct. The Cotton market at Liverpool, sap a letter of Oct. 9th, “ continues in a deplorably dull state. Cotton was yesterday almost without demand, and prices are scarcely supported, more particu larly lower and middling qualities, which are re duced 1-8 to l-4d per lb.” The imports into Liverpool during the month of September, were 44,999 bales—of which 23,561 were from the U. States The sales during the same period, were 43,950 ; and the stock on hand, Oct. 1, amounted to 177,000 bales. The injury sustained by the grain crops in Eng land, and other parts of Europe, has been consid erable, though not so extensive as was appre hended at the commencement of harvest. Af-’ terthe arrival of the Cortes, flour was sold in N. | York at $7 a 7 1-4 per hbl. The appearances of a war between Russia and Turkey have subsided ; and it is said that friend ly relations have been established. Hostilities \ still continue between the Turks and Greek in- . surgents. The latter have Jefeated the Pacha of Salcnica in a bloody battle near Cassandra, in which the monks of Mount Athos took a part ; and it was rumoured that the Turks had experi enced another defeat at sea. The King of England is making a tour on the continent. He landed in France on the 25th September, and proceeded to Brussels, accompa nied by the Duke of Wellington, with whom he , visited the battle ground of Waterloo. The French napers say that the Princesses of the reigning families in Germany have put themselves in the ! way of the royal widower on his route to Hanoi ver, with views too obvious to require explana tion. Nothing of particular interest appears in the papers in regard to the troubles in Spain. A respectable English paper of the 7th Oct. contains the following article j Our readers will learn with some surprise, that England and Spain are upon the eve of a state ! of things very little short of actual war ; and that i a feather, almost, may turn the scale either way, I This affair is briefly as followsln a Spanish paper, called the Regulator, appeared in tenor 1 the following paragraph. “It is affirmed, that hit Brittanick Majesty, George the Fourth, will do himyelf the honour of taking a second wife in his present journey to the continent; and that fhis lady will be chosen from one of the German courts—perhaps the youngest Princess of the Austrian house of Esterhazy—a young lady of the age of 18 years, and therefore extremely well suit ed to the mature yeara of his British Majesty, now in his COth year. The paper (hen goes on to add, “ that this news can excite no surprise, since there are persons to whom all crimes are permitted, and who, though the object of general exeefation, nevertheless enjoy all the favours of fortune, if remorse do not assail them at every hour and every minute of the day, and they are permitted to enjoy the fruits of their misdeeds.” Immediately upon the publication of this atro cious libel, the British Ambassador applied to the Spanish government, and demanded, as he had a good right to demand, the punishment bf the li beller. The Spanish government ordered the prosecution of the editor and printer ; but the grand jury, or what is tantamount to it in the Spunish administration of justice, threw out, as we should term it, the bill, endorsing on the back of it that they saw no matter of prosecution in the act alleged. The British Minister, therefore, and the powerful monarch whom he represents, have received no satisfaction for this atrocioui insult, and, so far as Spain and her government are concerned, have no explanation or satisfac tion to expect for one of the most abominable li bels in modern times!” DOMESTICK. Distressing Erent.-On Sunday evening,2sth lit. Mr. Newdy G. Connell, of this county, was burnt to death about a mile from Warrenton. He was on his way to Augusta with a wagon, and was last observed sitting over a fire which he had prepar ed for the night, and is supposed to have fallen into it in a fit. When found, the flesh on one arm and one side of his body was burnt almost to a cinder. He continued in the most excruciating agony until Monday afternoon, when he expired. An attempt to rob the mail, and murder the carrier was made between Stafford C. H. and Fredericksburgh, Va. on the morning of the 12th ult. The villain who made the attempt con structed a blind near the road, from behind which he discharged a musket at the carrier loaded with three balls. Providentially neither took effect, and the design was frustrated. One of the balls was found in the mail bag. Two American and one British vessel, captur ed by pirates, have beeu retaken by the U. S. brig Enterprise, which has also succeeded in de stroying four piratical cruisers. Notwithstanding ,ihis success, however, there seems to be no di minution of sea robberies. Several piracies have been very lately reported, attended with circum stances of extreme barbarity. The number of inhabitants in Virginia, accord ing to the late census, is 1,028,623 —an increase of 54,000 since 1810. At the late session of the Legislature of Ken tucky, five members refused to take the oath re quired against duelling —but were notwithstand ing, allowed to take their seats. Perhaps there was some management in this business, and the oath dispensed with, in order to allow these five gentlemen the enviable privilege of adjusting all disputes among the members which might require to be settled in an honourable way. We believe that it is no new thing in the annals of duelling to fipKA Wj Ako natuvol npugnunoo which a roan feels to have his brains blown out solely on another person’s account may render such cases somewhat rare. The steam-boat Walk-in-the-water was lost in a gale on Lake Erie, on the Ist. nit. The pas sengers and a part of the cargo saved. Thomas Haswell, charged with robbing the mail at Louisburgh, N. C. was tried at Raleigh on the 14th ult. and found guilty. He was re manded to prison, and his sentence postponed, on motion of his counsel, until the next sitting of the court, when it is expected that facts will be produced which will mitigate the severity of bis punishment. “ O Woman ! “ When care and anguish wring thf brow, i “ A ministering angel thou !” In three townships in the vicinity of Reading Pa. 75 adults and 117 children were labouring r under fevers on the first of last month: many of .! them dangerously indisposed, and many in a i , state of indigence and misery. Measures were ■ j taken to provide the destitute with proper medi ■ ■ cal assistance, and the young ladies of Reading | assembled, and in 12 hours cut out and finished r! 75 garments for the use of the indigent sick. Rapid Improvement. —The N. Y. Spectator 1 j says, that half a dozen elegant post coaches start 1 from the city of Utica in that state, proceeding through a country where a few years since “ the mail was carried on the back of an individual.” A Mr. Powell, of Gloucester Cos. N. J. raised I ;21 sons and one daughter by one wife—l 7of his I sons were in the revolutionary army at the same ! time ; and on one occasion he is said to have led the whole number into the harvest field. A negro woman, aged 70 years, was executed ! in Somerset County Maryland on the 19th Oct. for the murder of a person of her own colour. A . vast concourse of spectators attended the execu tion and an impressive discourse was delivered on the occasion by a Rev. clergyman, at the conclu sion of which he addressed the prisoner, and urged her in the most solemn manner to make a confes sion of her guilt, which she obstinately refused. About 1400 blacks were present, and most of them were deeply affected by the religious exer cises as well as by the awful scene which passed before them. : The legislature ofßhode Island have adjourned. ’ Among the other business of the session, the Res olutions of the State of Maryland, upon the sub ject of the appropriation of the lands of the United J States to the purpose of education, were fully ap ! proved, gad their Senators and Representatives in j Congress instructed accordingly. They also re j solved that the apportionment aforesaid ought to be made among such of the States of this Union : as have not heretoforts received the benefit of an ; appropriation, with a reference to the exertious r and sacrifices of the individual States in the Rev ! olutiouary War. | The devices frequently resorted to by those unhappy beings who resolve upon destroying 1 their own lives, are truly singular. The following l is a remarkable ease. On the 20th of last month, j a Mr. Henry Abbott, of Steuben county, raised a ■ length of rail fence, and, putting his neck into the opening, kicked out the prop, which brought the whole weight on his neck, and killed him instan taneously. jv. y. Spec. From the Utica Gazette of Aov. 6. Progress of the Canal. — We are happy to state, that the Canal from this place to the Little Falls, has been completed within the time contemplat ed, and opened for the purpose of navigation. ’ The water was let in from the termination of the Utica level to the Falls, on Thursday last. On j Friday morning, Mr. Seymour, acting commission- j er on the Eastern section, Messrs. Wright and ! White, engineers, together with several other 1 gentlemen, started from this village in the Chief; Engineer, and followed by three other boats, with j passengers, performed the first trip on this inter- j esting portion of the Erie Canal. At the Little! Falls, the arrival of the boats was announced by a i national salute aDd the cheers of a great number of people who had assembled to witness the scene. Here an incident took place which excit ed considerable interest, particularly in the minds of those on board who had participated in the dangers and difficulties of the revolutionary war. There was a gentleman present who belonged to the family of General Washington, during the latter part of that eventful period, and who re ceived him on board his barge after he had taken leave of the army at West Point, and conducted him to New York, and from thence to Elizabeth town, whence he took his departure for Annapo lis, where Congress was then sitting, to resign his commission. The rudder of the Chief Engineer was surrendered to this gentleman, who guided her into the first lock at the Falls, while the band of musick played Washington’s march, and the discharge of cannon reverberated from the sur rounding hills. New-York,’ Nov. 16. More trouble among the Singing Masters —The Westchester Herald, after alluding to the account published some weeks since, of the “ Carlisle Singing Master,” who had borrowed Ladies’ rings, hearts, &c. and finally a horse, with which be had eloped, gives an account of another of the species, who has been playing his demisemiquivers in that co. Master Crotchet has been teaching a Singing School atYorktown,where he was much esteemed by the fair,and while in “the full tide of success ful experiment,” a tip-staff very unceremoniously gave him a slap on the shoulder, and conducted him to jail at White Plains, charged with stealing and selling a yoke of fat oxen, and also of enter ing a store in South Salem, without the knowl edge or consent of the owners, and taking sun dry articles not unto him belonging, and without paying any thing therefor. Johnson, (his name) probably thought that we were already living un der the new constitution, and that all was liberty and equality now. It is said that since his remo val to the White Plains, he has proposed to con tinue teaching his old scholars, provided they will attend at No. 2, in Westchester County Pris on ! “ Musick hath charms,” the Poet says, “to soften rocks,” but not to open locks ; and we doubt whether his/a la sols, however sweet and melodious, will dissolve the prison walls. [Com. Mr. Wilmington, Nov. 10. Statue of Washington. —The Schooner Mary Ann arrived at this port last night, from Boston, having on board the Statue of Washington. It will be transported to Fayetteville by water, and from thence to Raleigh by land. Contracts for its conveyance,we understand, have already been made. [ Recorder . The Legislature of New Jersey have appropri ated two thousand dollars, annually, to be appro priated to the education of the Deaf and Dumb of that state, at some convenient institution. By a report of the Mayor of New York to the Governour and Council, it appears that there are upwards of nineteen hundred licensed taverns in that city ; the whole number including those who sell without license, two thousand five hun dred. An abundant cause (he observes) of pau perism and crime. [ Georgian . The Advocate observes that “an Irish corres pondent thinks it all important that the mail ■ coach should in future carry a guard to prevent the laie robberies.” Georgian. Three men who were sleeping on board a boat in the river Niagara, preparatory to crossing, were lately carried down the current to the falls and dashed to pieces, in consequence of their boat parting from her fastenings. Many articles of their goods were afterwards seen floating below the falls much broken, excepting a dining table, which floated ashore uninjured!— Georgian. It is said that one house in New York which commenced buying flour on the morning of the arrival of the Hercules, and who had the good sense to sell out immediately, cleared $30,000 by the speculation. Ib. A letter from a gentleman travelling in Europe to his friend in Philadelphia says : “ I saw the Pope three times in state : he is a little old man, seemingly half starved, as he is do ing penance for having crowned Bonaparte—he was carried in a splendid chair, dressed in a white velvet robe, covered with jewels, and attended by his sleek faced cardinals, whose rosy cheeks and petticoats, led an innocent Turk to imagine that they were the Pope’s wives.” Having noticed Mr. Secretary Crawford’s ill ness and convalescence, we have pleasure in an nouncing that he has regained his usual health, and almost entirely recovered from the effects of his severe indisposition.
