Hugh Lawson White is now ! about sixtv years of age. He is a native of North Carolina, and was educated at the bar ! U 1 Pennsylvania, where he pursued his legal -udies with diligence and success- While t a vo ung man. he emigrated to Tennessee, where his learning and accuracy in Ins pro ! fessiol3) especially in the doctrines of real pro- I nertv and the soundness of his judgement, ; oon procured him a high reputation and ex tensive practice. When Tennessee was e- I ree'ed into a separate state,he became a mem- I her of the Legislature, and was afterwards I elected a Judge of the Supreme Court of that at the time when the bench was graced Ihv the learned and ingenious Judge Haywood, lone of the ablest lawyers of the United States ■inhis time. In this situation he became as I conspicuous for the impartiality and sound- I nC <-'of his opinions as he had formerly been |for his talents as an advocate. During the I late war, when the southeastern states and I territories were threatened with Indian inva- Ision Judge White was in the field as a vol- I untcer, and on this occasion it was that he I laid the foundation of that accurate and ex tensive knowledge oflndian affairs which he i has' since displayed in Congress. In the year ISI9, he was selected by President Monroe las a commissioner, with Mr. Tazewell, of | Virginia, and Gov. King, of Maine, for the | distribution among our citizens of five mil | lions of dollars, allotted by the Florida treaty las an indemnity for Spanish spoliations be- I tween ISOO and 1815. Coming to the dis- I charm of the duties 6f this appointment with I of commercial law arrd eoin- I mercial interests, from which his situation I had hitherto separated him; he soon made I himself familiar with those subjects, and bc- Icaine an able and efficient member of the [board. His decisions respecting the claims 1 in which the merchants ofthis city and I Boston were very largely interested, to the I amount probably of three fifths of the whole [sum to be distributed—gave universal satis- I faction, by their discrimination and equity. In 1824, when Gen. Jackson resigned his [place in the United States Senate, Judge I White was elected for the two remaining years I of the term, and afterwards for the six years lof the succeeding term. He took his seat in I the first Congress of Mr. Adam’s administra § tion. He was an industrious and leading 1 member of the Judiciary, the Military, and I the Indian Committee; in all the business of I which, as well as in all matters relating to the j public lands, he has proved himself a most I able and efficient legislator. He is not ave- I iv frequent speaker, scrupulously abstaining I from subjects not immediately connected I with the duties of the committee to which he I belongs, or which do not fall within the range 1 ofiiis own information and pursuits. When I called upon, however, to deliver Ids opinions I by a sense of public dutv, he is one of the I most able and effective speakers in the Senate. I He is in an uncommon degree perspicuous, co- I pious without useless degression, accurate in I information, and forcible in argument. He I is generally purely argumentative, but some * times the force of an unexpected sarcasm I shows with what power he might exorcise that I talent, if the natural kindness of his disposi -1 tion did not restrain him. Judge White is a man of venerable appear* I ancc, with grey hairs, of a spare make, active B in mind and body, of habits of great regulari* Itv and applicable to business.

Eastern Argus. BEAUTIES OF REPUBLICANISM. , There are said to he at lea§t sixteen hun dred substantial houses about to be built in Philadelphia this season. The Canal Com missioners are now in session here with a \ iew to the Columbia rail road and other great state improvements—The central rail road stock has all been taken—the last two bun dred thousand dollars at a single stroke,by one man. The Norristown rail road, the Chester county rail road,and the Little Schuylkill rail road are all going rapidly-into operation. It is in agitation even to have the legislature of Delaware called together in extra session, for the mere purpose of giving furtherance to the projected Delaware county rail road. The state crnals are in good order and taking tolls beyond all precedent or anticipation. Freights are in demand. Wages for sea and shore are high. The European trade, the China trade, the South American trade, the African trade, above all, the coasting trade, and the interor trade, the exchanges of the country from east to west, and from south to north, are flourish ing. Peace and prosperity are every where clipping us round about* Neighboring cities like New \ ork, Philadelphia and Baltimore are. all thriving together, without injuring each other, but on the contrary growing far beyond all ancient or European example. Cities hundreds of miles from the sea-board, Pittsburg, Louisville, Cincinnati, Rochester, are concentrating wealth and industry almost incredibly. The face of the whole country smiling with productive labor. Go where you will, a busy, happy, contented people are increasing all the resources and enjoyments, of gcneial happiness, prosperity and power. Such arc the beauties of republicanism. Con trast them with the deformities and miseries of unrepresentative governments. I-ook a broad at Warsaw', Rome, Brussels, London, Paris—every where—and what do you behold but revolutionary struggles, in which all the time, talents, wealth and ppwer of nations arc expended in destruction, while here they are bestowed in creation. The cities, or the country of the United States, are in themselves argument and proof enough of the merits of freedom. The city of New York alone pays into the public treasury upwards of fifteen millions of dollars—much more than all the ex penditure (propsr) of the government. The market of the city of Philadelphia alone re quires three hundred thousand sheep a year, thirty thousand horned cattle,twenty thousand calves, and ten thousand swine each and eve ry year, for the mere food of the inhabitants. These are among the solid beauties of Repub licanism— American Sentinel. J&ll&fllijaFa Tuesday, May Si, C . I)r. Ambrose Baber, w e are authorised to say, is a candidate to repre sent this County in the Senatorial branch of the next Legislature ; and we are also authorised to announce Tarpley lluli, Esq. For the Representative branch, at the ensuing e lection. Our Town. The Fire Engine which has been ordered for Macon, will, it is presumed, shortly arrive. As the safety of our town is a primary consideration, we beg leave to suggest to our citizens, for the purpose of establishing a systematic corps, that a public meeting be called to organize the follow ing companies: A Volunteer Fire Company to be composed cf permanent residenters; who, after their organiza tion shall apply to the next Legislature for an act! of incorporation, granting them such immunities as the nature of their association may require. A Mining Company. A Ho'ok and Ladder Company, An Axe Company. It would be better, probably, if the last men tioned Company were composed of domestics. Such is the case in Augusta,—and they arc a most efficient arm in the Fire Departments of that city. This is a subject which should claim our ear liest attention, and one to which too much im portance cannot be attached. Without system Fire Companies arc useless. Let us then meet together, and devise seme plan for the contem plated institution, that will enable us to carry it into successful operation. The highly laudable and enterprising exertions of the respectable citizens of Augusta, who com pose the Fire Companies of that place, have put their town in such comparative safety, that insu rance has been reduced fifty per cent. This is an important consideration, —and will not fail to strike with peculiar force every individual among us who has the security and prosperity of Macon at heart. We deemed it unnecessary to reply to Detec tor, inasmuch as we quoted him correctly, and made what we thought and still think to be the only fair inference of which his premise was sus ceptible. The tone of the quotation which we selected for animadversion, was so much in the spirit of the feelings of the ultra philanthropists, tuat we could not refrain from noticing and rebuk ing it, in what we considered a proper manner. It is a well known fact that there are a certain set of politicians, who arc in the habit of censur- ' ing us for the servitude which is imposed upon G yc domestic population, and in the same breath eh uttering against their equality. Altho’ Dstec- Ton •. did not directly contend for their equality, we thoi the deduction might be drawn, for the reaso *°f tli<c remark being so much in consonance with t ' M; views of that school of politicians to wj ieh \ ’ I3VC alluded. If comparison is any ■st; *, . criterion to judge of a writer’s assertions, Detec tor certainly degraded our slave population to the level of the brute creation. Upon these logical assumptions were our remarks based, and he is at liberty to take them in their literal significa tion, tor wo feel ourself above equivocation. Mr. Lumpkin, a Candidate. “ Taney gazing at a letter.— A cramp piece of penmanship as ever I saw in my life! I can read your print hand very well. But here there are such handles, and shanks, and dashes—that one can scarce tell the head from the tail. “To An thony Lumpkin, Esq.” It’s very odd; I can read the outside of my letters well enough—but when I come to open it, it is all buzz, buzz, buzz ! That‘s hard, very hard; for lam told the inside ofa letter generally contains the cream of the correspondence.”— She Sioops to Conquer. Mr. I.umpkin, notwithstanding his previous de clarations to the contrary, has at length officially presented himself before the people of Georgia, as a candidate for the next Executive Chair. We have no objection that Mr. Lumpkin should do this. lor as a public man he has certainly a riglit to canvass the suffrages of the people for any post which he may deem himself qualified to fill. But we do most seriously object to the mode pur sued by him for the purpose of reaching his de termination. It does not appear to us to be “in keeping” with that consistency of character which should mark the conduct of a high-minded states man—on the contrary, we are rather inclined to view it as the restless and cquivocatipg disposi tion of an unreflecting partizan, upon whom the pride wd seductions of office have exercised an undue influence. The following are the reasons which Mr. Lump kin gave in February last, for declining to accede to what he says, were the wishes of his friends; and also those, which he now says, induce him to come forward. We place them in juxtaposi tion: Here they are: “ Look on this picture , Washington, February 1,1831. 5 Dear Sih —The edito rial remarks contained in the Augusta Chronicle of the 20th ult. on the subject of the next Gub ernatorial election, in connection with nume rous letters which I have received from citizens residing in different parts of the state, must plead my apology to my friends and fellow-citizens, Tor publicly assigning a few of the leading considera tions which have influ enced me, in declining to accedetto their wishes.

Sdly. In the present posture in which we find the important interests of Georgia, instead of pursuing a course which might tend to embitter party animosities, and engender new* strifes, it is my most ardent desire to see the whole, people of Georgia united on tiie great subjects of politi cal interest, and princi ple, which are insepara bly connected with Li berty, and the perpetua tion of our Federal U nion. “ The Federal U nion must be preserved.’ And it can only bedone, by the General and State Governments confining themselves within their respective constitutional spheres. Georgia must maintain her Sovereign ty and Jurisdiction over the entire population within her chartered li mits. An attempt to a bridge or deprive a slate ofthis riglit, would be an obvious, gross, and pal pablr violation of the con stitution. which would be corrected by the peo ple of the whole Union,j bef ro endurance could' become intolerable. I am duly impressed with a sense of the deli cacy of my present situa tion, and scarcely dare to hope, that I shall steer clear of the censure of all. But I feel assured, that if my motives could be read by all,that which could not be approved, would at least be forgiv en. I am under abiding ob ligations to all those kind friends, who have sus tained me through a long course of public service.

In the 2d, whether ho has become convinced that he cannot, be as useful in promoting the “ po litical interests” of the Stato as ho at first thought lie 'vas capable of doing?

Pemberton, esq • Dear Sir —My letter addressed to you on the first of February last, was written with a view of closing an increasing correspondence, which had originated with ray friends, on the subject therein referred to. It was written in a spirit of i frankness and candor, and with the hope that it would prove satisfactory to my friends. But my views have been disap pointed; my friends have continued to urge their right, to judge what po sition I should occupy, in relation to public affairs. I recognize the right of the people to govern. In the exercise of their con stitutional right of suf frage, it is their unques tionable privilege to put ill and out of office, at pleasure, as they may judge that their interest require. The office cf Chief Magistrate of a state, cannot with pro-1 priety lie sought, or de clined by any citizen. Were my abUiies equal to my desire to promote the interest and welfare of the state, I could have yielded a more ready assent to the wishes of my friends; hut, consci ous as 1 am of my defici encies, I nevertheless yield all my opinions and feelings, on this sub ject, to the public will. As far as I can, I shall put every selfish consi deration out of the ques tion. Wherever lain, ray sole motive, A high est ambition, shall be the public good.

It Mr. L. will answer the first and last inter rogatory in the negative, and the second in the affirmative, we w ill absolve him from the charge ol inconsistency which we have preferred against him. It cannot avail Mr. L., or his friends, to say, that it is “Me will of the people ” that lie should bo brought forward. The people have never ex pressed any such will—neither have they given any one authority' to do so for them. If they have, when and where was it given? The truth is, the declaration is made with a view to impose upon the people. The Augusta Chronicle and Federal Union, we believe, were the only* two pa pers in the State fliat solicited Mr. Lumkin tode *ert his post for an expectancy in future, which w r e feel confident, as we have before said, he can never realize—unless, forsooth, the Editors of those papers can convince us, that they have been regularly deputed, on this important occasion, to pronounce the will of the people of Georgia.— No, no—such manoeuvres are too stale and flim sy to weigh in our estimation, a feather. It re minds us, forcibly, of the shallow expedient to which Buckingham resorted in proclaiming the third Richard: 1 “ask’d the Mayor, what meant this wilful silence: His answer was—the people were not used To be spoke to but by the recorder. Then he was urged to tell my tale again: Thus saith the Duke, thus hath the Hake inferreds But nothing spoke in warrant from himself. When he had done, some followers of mine own, Ai the lower end o’ the hall, hurl’d up their caps, And sonic ten voices cried, God sure Kingltichurd! And thus I took the vantage of those few, — Thanks , gentle citizens, and friends, quoth I; This generous applause, and cheerful shout, Argues your wisdom, and your love to Richard: And even here broke off and came away.” Mr. Culhniin, nt honitl We extract the following from the Camden ! Journal—a paper which stands second to none in South-Carolina lor Editorial talent, sound princi ples, and consistent conduct. It will show in what estimation Mr. Calhoun is held at home, by the reflecting part of the community—and is a sure augury that even there he has become a depre ciated article in the political market. The Ame rican people will never forgive him for his dupli city* towards Andrew Jackson. His political friends arr dropping from around him, one by one. Thny have become disgusted athis inordinate am bition for office, and feel ashamed to be associa ted with one who is so careless of his own, and so regardless of the reputation of others. We arc in possession of some facts in relation to Mr. Cal houn’s Agency in a certain western state, relative to the Morgan mania, which we will developc at a proper time. When Mr. Calhoun is announced as acan* | didate for a third election to the Vice Prcsi ! dcncy, wc shall most uuqUestionably be op j posed to him—certainly, unless he disproves the charge of Nullification, and we shall be prepared with plenty of reasons for the oppo sition ; but we apprehend no such movement at present. Nor have we the most remote idea that Martin Van Buren w ill be a candi date. When he is, whether we support him or not, will depend upon the circumstance, that there is another candidate, in the field, that wc like better. We have only to Bay of Mr. Van Buren, that we never have manifes ted any disinclination to speak freely of him ; precisely as wc thought and as We pleased. We speak of every man as we please, be it tin* derstood. We have no doubt of one thing in relation to the late Secretary of State, and that is, that he has by no means had fair play from the public press. We have no inclination to praise him, but w*c shall do soyvheneVer it suits our pleasure.—That's all. nmfoitiAi.s. We like the spirit displayed in the following article. It evidences the right kind of feeling— and when properly exercised is well calculated to sustain the freedom and courtesy of the Press. From tht Camden Journal. 'Ve consider Ourselves as having squared off with all that portion of our brethren Edi torial and pugnacious with whom we have had an account current. We know of none of them that wc arc not fairly quits with, except two or three that wc never think of, except when they snarl, and only think of them, long enough to consider how desperately silly it would be to make other folks exercise a passing thought upon matters too trivial for human cogitation. All our antagonists worth the am munition being settled with, wc propose now to “wipe off the chalks and begin anew*” In other words—lf the Editors of Newspapers op posed to us in politics, foci disposed to observe the courtesy which ought to regulate the man agement ot the press, and which many of them always hare observed, they shall never fail to find a correspondent disposition in this paper. No man worthy of notice shall assail us and go off with whole bones——even though his own superiority enables him to break every bone in our anatomy. We make no boast— wc are quite as sensible as man need be, of the advantages which some of cgir adversaries suppose they have over us, and it is quite pos sible that they may bring guns enough to boar upon us to make a marvellous smoke—they may chuckle for aught we know or for aught wc care in some future battle, but this w e know; they will never go out ofpe action w ithout damages . No man shall maim us and go off himself uncrippled. We repeat the in vitation again. Let those who think us wrong in our politics, combat us in a spirit of fair warfare and the readers of this paper shall never see its columns darkened into person alities, or its Editor using any weapons than those of cool reasoning and calm argumenta tion. We desire peace With all men if we know ourselves ; and we fear not but that those who know us in private life, will sus tain us in the assertion. Let our political foes then, take hereafter, the choice of their own course towards us. We prefer courtesy and kind feeling—if they prefer a different mode of operation—Here we arc. Columbus, May 9S.

Jt bad undoubtedly Jhe-'n. coinmunicateddiy some unknown incendia ry to the large new building on Front street, just completed, having been erected for Mr. Stewart, of the firm of Stewart and Fountain, ihe fire rapidly increased, and very soon communicated to the building in the rear at the time occupied as the dwelling of the gentlemen above named, which together w ith its valuable furniture was soon destroy, ed. Several buildings in the neighborhood were greatly endangered; but through the timely and active exertions of our citizens, in pulling down outbuildings, and protecting others with wetted blankets, the progress of the fire was arrested. The stables belong ing to Mr. Dillard's hotel, were saved with great difficulty. The buildings occupied bv tho Democrat establishment were several times on fire, and were only saved by the ve ry active exertions of the citizens. The loss is estimated at !55i2,000. It principally, we understand, falls upon Messrs. Bates and Dibble, who lixul contracted for the building of Mr. Stewart’s house. They are enterpris ing and industrious mechanics and worthy citizens, and tho public very truly sympathise in their loss.— Democrat. TO CORRESPONDENTS.
