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 •ertion, ho adverted with great happiness bie unshaken patriotism of Washington, His consummate skill in rescuing his! -dry, not only from the grasp of tynmicnl OBe®> on ’ from the civil embarrass-i tots vrh C ' l succeeded the Revolution.

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. When the Oration • ' cd, the hour origi nally designated for i ••o.s milling had nearly arrived, but some lilt! intermission was con sidered necessary, and it was not until about four o’clock, that the Party re-united at the “Union Barer Til-.- tiinne* party, r.-.-s we doubt not, the ' Im;vs? ever case nbied or any occasion in this city, amounting to upwards of fourteen hun | •<-. ij-ergc-Kx- Tie von extrusive building j erected icily purpos -, on the ex tent-.va let on the corner of Meeting and G or.'o s-. c'i rny . space of 45 feet in v.,; ?• v 136 in length, was found inadequate jccc lined • ail who had assembled, and • . were obliged alter nately to stand up an and exchange places with them who were seat and.

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. TIIE COTTON MARKET. To correct some misrepresentations and erroneous impressions, the New York Amer ican publishes the subjoined view of the dis position of the last crop of Cotton : Already exported toG.

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 made to adhere.

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.

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 tor in the Union under obligations to him.—We shall commence this Expose in cur next.” —We have not yet had an opportunity of reading the Expose, but shall publish it as early as we can j firm reogi for it. Augusta Chronicle. 1 We perceive, by a correspondence between Gov. Reynolds, of Illinois, Gen. Clarks, Super -1 intendent of Indian Affair*at .St, Louis, aftd Gen. I Gainks, of the U. S. Army, that the Sac Indians, j headed by their Chief. Black Hawk, have made a i hostile incursion into the Slate Illinois, near ! Rock Island; in consequence'’of which. Gov.

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 tious- 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 “seals of office” still “glittered in the eyes, ’of some of the gentlemen—but they felt satisfied that tire machinations of an ambitions inn ‘vidual had rendered a patriotic sacrifice necessary,' and in this spirit they took their leave of the Pi ’si dent w ith the most unequivocal expressions ef affectionate regard for his virtues as a man,and for his high and comuYindiugtaients as the Ruler of ■a Free People. , 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.” i'emm mutations.

It is by fur the most interesting portion of the state, to the statesman, the philosopher, 1 lie political econo mist and to the , prieters of the soil, it is des tined to furnish m .re of healthy population— more of industry, ingenuity and enterprise, more individual profit, and to contribute more in vari ous ways to the public weal than any—l had al most said oil the rest of the state. And yet what is it at now i Nothing, or next to nothing. The people obtain a living ; but out of the incalcula ble wealth of their country they obtain but little more. This state of things must and will ulti mately change. The health and wealth, and tal ent and ingenuity, enterprise,and 1 hope the vir tue of the people of that portion of our staie are destined to exert aeontroling influence over the rest. If the present inhabitants are too blind to see ortoo inert to avail themselvi s of the benefits that are courting their acceptance; they will be 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 towns, villages, roads, rail-ways, aqueduets, via ducts, private scats, public edifices and manufac ture s that will be rising behind them. it is strange—most strange; hut not more strange thaatrue, that these jieopie who with improved facilities of conveyance to market ; would be eve ry thing, and without thern nothing; who with such laeili'ie* would h indivHnttiv rich and without them must remain pool—who as inrii aN als must prosper, and as a people must live, move and have their being, only by and through suc'q means —it is strange Isay that these people, vv!. q prosperity evuiy way depends on—whose d*tiry is involved in the work rf internal improvement; should that very people of our state who aq their face;, '•villi tue most inflexible obstinacy <t "al*i£t them.

A saviour has come To wait her loved spirit to realms of the blest* Tho* her earthly remains now lie cold in the tomb*, !Shc is gone where the virtuous and lovely fin-J, rest. There ii a s'-melhingin the very word which strikes the chord of our feeling with ape cultur melancholy—yet, with the young, the* g.\y, the happy, it vibrates but for a moment, and ’ike the April shower, its effect is but a bright ru v of sunshine, and a richer tinted flower. Wfien the ripens we look for its fall and when years end honors have filled up the measure of* human . 'f°, like the ripened harvest, it must be fathered .into the garner. But, it was not expcc-’ ted I hatthe blossom opening but to the summers bright sun—jcertexpurHlmg m full grown beauty,, should blight ai. and withri* as the blast of mildew.

U Ugw chilling it<j jn tiuenee ; hoW difficult to r*. disc that those we loved are indeed but as th.? dug? of the Earth :' yet it is too true; our affections that roes pure as ibt exhalations from a rose bed, iike tnese befort* tue influence of wintry blasts, must meet theehilk atmosphere of Death, and the heart surrender up its affections in coldness and tears. '1 he writer is called to these reflections in pay-* ing the last sad tribute to th? memory ofa valued. Irumd—the amiable Louisa (J. Smith, is no more. She died on W ednesday night last. A fife of the* deepest in'mest to her family and relations, of ib® utmost usefulness in society, is closed'; a voi-v* on whose accents friends, relations and pupils- Imng in rapture, is hushed forever. The ginilcs of maternal fondness, on which infant inno cence dwelt, a fondness peculiarly its own, arc faded in death and no more wiji cheer the feinl oh* jects ofa mothers love. A devoted husband, broth ers, and sisters, a bereaved society, no more shall fee! that winning gentleness of manner, that saint like meekness of disposition which gave delight to e.vefy heart, Airs- Smith wa6 boru in tiie City of Albany, 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. Around htf grave shall bloom the rose, Cherished !.y kind affection's care, While the fair goddess of repose, Khali keep her hallowed altar there. ’f 1 " D’S TkT'H ft T'Ni flTMl'XTfTPffl - J •' —- -.< —m eSmi film's! *ii ftirf JUST received and for sale at Mr- smwm- Also, Paper Hangings, of various patters.
