General Daniel Elliott Huger then
rose, and read Washington’s Farewell Ad
dress to the People of the United States with
much force—the audience applauding with
enthusiasm those passages which so forcibly
rebuke the Disunion doctrines, now boldly
put forth in our beloved State, it iias been
remarked to us by a highly talented and dis-
tinguished stranger, that ho could desire no
higher evidence of the intelligence and taste
of an assembly, than was shewn on that oc
casion, by selecting the most beautiful and
jointed passages or simultaneous applause.
After the conclusion of the second Ode,
*he Orator of the day, the hon. William
llrayton, occupied the succeeding two hours
ia pronouncing his oration ; a production, of
which all united in testifying the warmest ad
miration. It was replete with senitinents of
ardent devotion to the Union, and expressed
m the elegant diction so characteristic of the
mthor’s mind.
He organ the address by stating the rc la
ve situations of t!io Colonies and Great Brit
mi before and during the Revolution —the
wcr.vhelming diiiicultics with which the
.’hole country was embarrassed, and the suc
rs3 which the patriotic perseverance of our
irefathrrs met, in wringing from Great Brit
in the acknowh dgemeut of American liidc
endcncr.
In the course of an eloquent < logium on
m l ather of cur Republic, he defended
m from the charge which has sometimes
icn made,that “Washington possessed hut
TOmon sense.” The orator assumed the
oundthat he was entitled to the appella
nt of great, who with small means accom
•sli the greatest ends; and jn^roving this

of involving ourselves in a civil v r. He
stated two hypothetical cases, first v hen the
marshal would call on people for the support,
secondly when the case would be ref rred to
a jury, and proceed to show that neither could
tie peaceful unless the President failed
in Ins duty. lastly, he proved from the
examples of history, that though a formal
succession of a single State might avoid the
te rrilsle effects of the two former steps, yet,
that national freedom was never secure, and
that national respect was never commanded;
except by those who had the physical strength
to support it.
We should not have attempted to antiepate
the publication of any portion of this admira
ble oration, but that we know our distant
friends will be anxious to learn some of the
leading points assumed in it, and this is all
we can ptetend to have embodied in this very
imperfect sketch. Wc trust tliat copies of it
will be so multiplied, that it may find its way
into every hamlet in the State, to instruct
and enlighten our people on a subject of such
paramount importance to their future peace
and well being.

lIIE COTTON TRADE OF EGYPT.
The zeal and energy of the Viceroy nave
been rewarded by a great increase ot trade,
and a corresponding rise in the vaiue of raw
produce; but accident has conferred on him
a greater boon than could have been derived
from tiio wisest arrangements. M. Jutnel
discovered, one day, in the garden of a Turk
called Mako, a plant of the cutton-trre, which
ho afterwards propagated with so much skill
and success as to have changed, says Planat,
the commerce and statistics of Egypt, 'i his
important vegetable bears the name of the
Frenchman who first made the Gov- ninent
acquainted with its manifold uses as an arti
cle of domestic manufacture and of foreign
trade. Jume! erected at Boulak, near Cairo,
a superb establishment, equal in its struc-j
ture to the finest European manufactory, for
spinning, weaving, dyeing, and printing ofj
cotton goods. The latest improvements in i
machinery were borrowed Coin Rouen or
Manchester; steam ia the principal moving
power; and gas is employed for the purposes
of artificial light. At Siout Mr. Webster
found a cotton manufactory in full operation.
“It was established,” says he, “some six years
ago, and gives employment to eight hundred
men and (toys, who earn, ten, fifteen, twenty,
or thirty paras, and sometimes three piasters.
Little boys of seven or eight were seen in all
parts of the process. The Arab boys are
singularly active and intelligent-looking.—
They work with an air of sharpness which is
ouite remarkable —a sort of style and flourish
which shows a full comprehension and maste
ry of wßat they are about. They appear
much quicker than English hoys of the same
age. Young girls were once tried in the
factory-work, but were found to be of no .ser
vice. ’ Cotton factories are by no means un
common in Egypt.” M. Mongiii made a re
mark, which wo have seen continued by oth
er authors— namely, that during the preva
lence of the desert-winds, machinery is very
liable to be disordered bv the impalpable
dust which then fills the air, and is so ex
tremely penetrating that, as the natives as
sert, it will enter into an egg through the
pores of the shell.
This powdt r finds its way into the wheel-
Wnrk and finer parts of a pieced mechanism,
distill bid? and some timt s stopping the move
ments • while the wood, in similar circum
stances, warps or splits, and the threads, ow
ner t 0 the excessive dryness of the climate,
•ire very apt to break and snap asunder.—
But notwithstanding all these disadvantages,
which perhaps find a full compensation in
the cheap labor of a country whose mhabi
taiitshave few wads, the 1 asha is able
compete with the European manufacturers in
L-m', u ,avhß r’-i fee * fitted, and
even to undersell the merchants of India iu
•four own ports. It has happened, fortunab -
!y for the Pasha, that this cotton-wool is not
tnr usual coarse lend hitherto g rown in F.gvnt:
out of a very superior quality', equal to the
Lst American. Iu ;ho year* 18 till, the crop
yielded about 5,600,0001bs a portion of
which being sent to Liverpool on trial, was
sold at the rate of a shilling a pound. In
i the produce w as so abundant that, after
supplying the countries on the herders of the
Mediterranean, it veas calculated that at
least 50,600 hags might be ( xporte dto Eng- •
• and. jhe Pasha is still extending the cul
ture of this useful plant on tracts of ground
mug neglected, by clearing out the old canal;
and digging ethers for the purpose of irriga- j
turn ; so tin t it is very probable the quantity i
o! cot.on which may be raised in Egvpt will |
at no distant period -nearly equal tlie impor- j
tationfrom America; because, as the crop is!
not exjioscd, on the banks of the Nile, to the !
lro>t, and heavy rains which frequently in- i
lure it in the less temperate climate of the '
United States, it is much less precarious.

To correct some misrepresentations and
erroneous impressions, the New York Amer

position of the last crop of Cotton :

judicious management prescribe prices that!
will leave them profitable results. And with!
this knowledge, will they permit their agents
to sell at loosing rates?
Since the fire, efforts have been made, and j
with success, to exhume the fragments of the
Statue, which were broken off by the falling
timbers and buried beneath the ruins. We
arc pleased to add, that the head has been re
covered, having received but slight injury;
also one arm anti one leg, are nearly perfect.
The remaining portion of the Statue exhibits :
however such a tendency to crumble, that wc!
fear its disjecta membra qan never again be I

Columbus, July 7, 1831.
Whereas reports have gone out into the coun
try; that the SMALL I’OX is in Columbus to
the great inconvenience of many persons who
are detered from visiting the town even for the
necessaries and comforts of life, and also
calculated to injure the trade of the place. We
therefore feel it our duty to correct these ru
mours, and we assure those ut a distance that
not a single case has occurred, and that we
have no certain information that it is nearer'tß’
this place than the Big Warrior’s stand in Ala
bama, about 45 miles off, and that a regulation
of our Board of Commissioners, prohibiting
the Indians, and those residing aint-ng them
from coming into town, and requiring all per
sons suspected of coming from the infected re
gion to be examined before they pass into
Town, give us reason to hoj>e that this dread
ful disease will by a kind providence find no
place among us.

POST-MASTE R-GENE RAL.
The Richmond Enquirer of the Ist inst, says:
“The Defence of ttie “Post-Master-General” in
the Globe exhibits a beautiful picture of the pros
perity of the Post-Office Department. It is as
honorable to Mr. Barry, as it will be pleasing to j
the nation. The increase of its Revenue during |
one year, has exceeded, by more tlinn sl-10,000,!
the revenue of any previous year. The transpor- j
tan on of the mail has Increased more than 800.000
miles a year, beyond any former period. And
! the mail to New-OrNans, which took up 21 days’
to travel in, when Mr. Barry came into office, now
passes in twelve. So great is the expedition ire
iias imparted to it- For these extensions, and
this expedition, he has placed almost every Edi

Gov. Reynolds, of Illinois, Gen. Clarks, Super

ERRORS OFThiTIt.ESS.
w e cannot conceive how Mr. Rose of the
Messenger” t-ould aecuso ns, (with propriety)
j in his last impression of making an “ uuparihr>c
\ able error" in his warlike and nullifying toast,
| when he so well knew, that hr was not intention
| ally lnisrepresi uUA ; lor as soon as the error was
| discovered it was corrected, and that done before
| there were a dozen impressions issued from cur
j office. As but few of our readers can know without
j further explanation from us, cl - the “unpardonable”
1 sin wo have committed, we kora recapitulate the
j Toast given by Air. Rose—“ Tho South [in a few
j of our first papers we inadvertently said Korth)
may its rights first be supported by industry, en-
I ti-rprise, education and principle—if mare is nned-
I ed, our hands, our hearts, and our arms.” Now
| then, let us ask, could this error be considered
‘unpardonable’unless Mr. it. has retained to him
[ self the exclusive privilege of making blunders and
granting pardons. Asa Printer, he ought to know
if lie does not, tgat errors of the kind, of neces
foty frequently occur iu a printing office. For
the purpose of proving this, beyond disputation,
we select the following errata, from a copy of the
last Messenger itself, ln a communication sinn
ed “ Paul Pry,”
13tli line from top, for “eagtion” read “caution.”
14th line from top, for “whorebp,” read ‘whereby’
17th line from top, for “aim” road “ and”
18th line from top- for “citizins” read “citizens,”
Here in six consecutive lines, there are nearly
the same number of errors, raid besides these, in
the very issue of his, in which he sets forth our
“unpardonable error,” he makes as egregious er
rors, as the one he alludes fo, or to which any of
us are liable.
lathe beautiful sentiment (correctly reported)
given by Win. P. Hunter, he is made by the
Messenger to say, “The Union of the States, and
the States of the Union—one and invisible,” —
in- vi-si-ble ! ! [indivisible would read as Mr.
Hunter expressed it.] — I ‘Ahem !’ as Dr. Bangles?
says, “/A/a is-darknesa visible." Wonder if a pair
of Specs would’nt improve the intellectual vision
of Mr. Rose ? Again ; the Toast given by Judge
Strong is perverted, and reads in the Messenger—
Frank; in College—Georgia,ablest mom;incut—may
the people ever cherish it.”—(should read Geor
gia's.) We might find others equally palpable,
but we have not sought to do. None, of these un
meaning and outlandish words which Mr.
Rose has substituted for the legitimate ones, do
we impute to his ignorance or carelessness, not
withstanding they cannot he found in either, .She
ridan, Johnson, Walker, Webster, or any of our
modern or ancient Lexicographers. We. merely
notice them for the purpose, of correcting the quer
ulous and petulant not,c, which he has tagged to
the end oi' his toast.
TIIE CHARLESTON CELEBRATION.
From the different accounts which we have re
ceived of the celebration < f the FOURTH inst. in
Charleston, the political interest displayed on the
occasion, must have been of the most intense and
agitating kind, and the splendid spectacle w hich
the rival processions presented, must also have
been of the most imposing-and interesting charac
ter. We publish to-day an account of the celebra
tion by the Union Party. They had invited Pre
sident Jackson to participate in the festivities of
the day. He declined the invitation, in conse
quence of the pressing nature of his official duties
The Free Trade and States Rights Parly have ta
ken umbrage at an expression which the Unionists
made in their letter of invitation to the President,
in which the former [tarty arc stigmatised as ‘ dis
uniouists,’ They have in consequence called a
meeting of their adherents, which was to have ta
ken place on the 6th inst. for the “purpose of tak
ing into consideration what mcasurrs it, may b<
proper to adopt to repel this imputation, in the spi
rit w hich belongato the occasion.”
As we have received but a partial sketch ef the
celebration by the State Rights and Free Trade
Party, we have declined publishing it, presum
ing that in our next we will be chabled to lay be
fore our readers a more detailed statement of their
proceedings. The Union Party claims 1200 fol
lowers in their procession—lloo at the Festival :
and the State Rights and Free-Trade Party esti
mate their’s at between seventeen and #ig!itecft
hundred in tiie procession ; and those who partici
pated in the Festival at the I’avilion, at fifteen
hundred.
We have already entered our dissent to this
malapropos mode of celebrating the Fourth of Ju
ly. No matter how magnificent they he in all
their “ pomp and circumstance,” —no matter how
splendid they may be in their wealth, genius, and
talents —such pageantries got up with the spirit
and motives which must have actuated the con
flicting parties, arc, in our humble estimation, dis
honorable to the day, as well as to those feelings
of moral sublimity, w hich the events that have
consecrated it, are so wall calculated to Inspire.
We hope our Charleston brethren will not again
select the anniversary of our Independence for
the purpose of fomenting- their political disseu

Letter Writing—Time and Spare.
The following reflections, were produced by the
reception of a letter, from a far absent and valued
friend. They bear such striking evidence of the
strong emotions of a sensitive, ami feeling heart,
and of good judgment and of sound sense, as to
have induced the publication of them :
“What a debt of gratitude we owe to the inven
tor of the art of writing. Without it, distance
would operate tike the grave: friends and rela
tions. between whom, Destiny, in her cruo-1 and
capricious, or her benevolent and merciful moods;
had interposed that barrier, wouid hear no more
ofeach other, and hold no farther intercourse than
if they had “passed that bourne whence no trav
eller returns.” But blessed with a knowledge
and possession of this hoaven-givCn art, they can
therewith “annihilate both time and space?,” and
though separated, distant as the poles, hold “con
verse sweet.” Epistolary intercourse, between
absent friends, affords the most holy pleasure of
\\ hich the human mind is susceptible. Certainly
it is an extalic enjoyment to he present with those
! we love; to see them; to converse with them; aiui
!to hold them to our hearts; O! it is rapturously
delightful! His Paradisiacal! But the i motions
engendered in the mind by a perusal of a letter
from a friend removed to a distance frr m us, are
more mellow and pensive: the heart feels the
i blended sensation of pleasure and pain; and-, while
! it throbs with a softened delight, the tears are rea
!dy to gush from our eyes. The feelings are such
: let us imagine, as they would he, w ere we to re
ceive intelligence from tliosp, on whom the tomb
| had closed, and shntthem oul from our sight for
ever.” * * * * * *”
THE CORRESPONDENCE.
Rome i ircnnistanrss ot a delicate and private
I nature, :il!uib-<i to in the correspondence between
j Messrs. Ingham aud Eaton, are made by the op
position papers the ground-work of the dissolu
| tion ot the late Cabinet. 11 w any man, aequaiu
-1 ted with the cotemporaneous history of his eoun
j try, and who is riot destitute of common sense or
j common veracity, can attribute that event to spoil
! a cause, i.to us truly astonishing, it was tin
gratuitously public and political expose, by Mr.
Calhoun, of, the correspondence between himself
and the President, that imposed it as .a national
duty upon the laticr, \o dissolve the Cabinet over
vvliicli he presided. Although cot in direct forms,
Mr. Calhoun bad charged Andrew Jackson, with
oeing inoapaole of uiscnargiug die Ing’u responsi
bilities of his elevated station, and of being undu
inf.uencod mu .ogttke. din the adniini -tiation
of public affairs by certain individuals compo
sing- the National Council. This is fairly infer
able from the declaration cfMo. C., tl.atGrarra!
Jackson had become the “victim of a political in
trigue.” Insinuations like these—so false, dark,
'nd malignant—coming from an officer the second
in rank in th? government cf our Republic—de
manded a rR.*.CTXCA*t refutation —such a refuta
tion as would convince the American people, that
i Mr. Calhoun had viifijly and knowingly mis
represented and traduced the character of their
Chief Magistrate. .The most effectual method of
doing this, and to “return the poison’d chalice to
the lips” ofliim v. ho presented it, was a change
in his constitutional advisers —for Andrew Jack
on well knew that this was the only measure he
could adopt which would enable him successful
ly to write, in burning characters upon the fore
head of .Mr. Calhoun, here stands tile public
slanderer! —He accordingly dissolved Iris Cab
inet —and a more pacific and courteous revolution
never took place in the administration of any gov
ernment —and to contradict the assertion that it
was occasioned by fe e cause to which it is impu
ted, Mr. Ingham IriinseU voluntarily appears be-
fore the people, and says, that the greatest harmo
ny prevailed between the Pro. ‘dent and the Cabi
net during the entire time of the..' connexion. It
is true, indeed, that, upotf their rv ‘.ifoment, the

When the firs*, intelligence of the dissolution
of tiie Cabinet was received, an unfavorable im-!
pression was made upon the minds of many, in |
consequence of the misrepresentations which ac
compained it. But as the public begins to t|r
better informed upon the subject, a powerful re
action is taking place ; and the noble patriotism
which actuated Andrew Jackson is becom
ing to he more properly appreciated. By the re
organization of his Cabinet he has triumphantly
related the assertions of Mr. Calhoun, effectual
ly foiled his sinister designs upon the Presiden
tial Chair, —and convinced every reflecting man,
that it was He, (John C. Calhoun) who was at
tempting to make him, (Andrew Jackson,) the
“ victim cf a political intrigue.”

purchased out by those who will know how to
profit by them ; and they then must move off to
some other wild country and make room for the

in the state of Now-York and emigrated to thW
State wiih several relations some years ago. To
a mind of the happiest natural powers, she uni
ted very considerable cultivation ana employed
many years of her life as a teacher of youth, iit
which she attained much celebrity in several fe
male seminaries, in various parts of this state, t®
which fact many of her pupils; as wives,as mothers
& as Christians bear the iiighest testimony of her
excellent and exalted virtues. Asa wife, the wri*
ter of this article feels deep!} 7 indebted for exam*
pies which she derived w hile one of her most fa*
von and pupils, as a mother the fondness which sho
has often displayed towards her lovely boy, is au
unerring evidence of her worth. She married
Mr. John Pemberton Smith in the year 1827, and
removed to this place near two years afterwards*
since which time she has been employed with
much success in her favorite vocation; this, ad
ded to her close attention to her domestic duties,
and the deep maternal solicitude of one, so keen
ly alive to tiie tenderest sensibility,shattered her
fragile frame, and prod iced a premature decay,
which caused the ravages of disease to prey up
on her constitution.
Asa Christian, Mrs, Smith gave in her last mo
ments, the most lively cvide.uce of her belief in
the Croat Truths of Christianity, and her confi
dence in being received in the arms of her Re
deemer. A few moments before her spirit took
its flight, she clasped her fond husband in her
arms and died perfectly conscious of the approach
of the fell-destroyer. She was about twenty-eight
years of age and left two lovely infants, the eld
est upwards of two years, and the youngest about
three months old—both too young to appreciate
the. irreparable loss to tin rusclves aud their dijep
ly bereaved and devoted father.

While the fair goddess of repose,
