from Berlin is to the 21st, and from Warsaw
to theevening of the 17th inst. at which time
no news had arrived of the then hourly expect
ed collision between Diebitsch and .Skrzy
necki. Both armies are manoeuvring—-the
Russians to operate against Warsaw on the
opposite side of the Vistula from the previous
line of action, and the Poles to defeat this
fresh assault on their capital. The country
upon the line of march was desolate, and the
Cholera Morbus, according to our private let
ters, frightfully extending its ravages ; it had
spread into Austrian Gallieia. In Lithuania
the Russians are pursuing a savage extermi

their wounded prisoners, and the peasants and
scattering Polish partisan corps are executing

FROM PORT AU PRINCE.
The Editor. of the New York Courier have
received the Port au Prince Telegraph o-f the
12th June, containing the correspondence be
tween the Consul General of France and the
gevernment, in relation to the existinjftlilli
eulties between the two countries.
By a letter of tho 2d June, the Consul
General M. Mollien, requires to know from
the President whether he is willing to ratify
two treaties signed at Paris on the 2d April,
and states his inability to alter their condi
tion* in any way. He asks an answer to for
ward it to France by M. Pichon, in the frig
atf' La Junou. The Secretary General in re
ply,on the 4th June, says, tiie President lias
determined not to*ratify them, and that the
motives of his refusal will he communicated
to the French government by despatches
transmitted through the medium of Mr.
Fiction.
Ihp Consul General on the same day an
s'vcrs that as the motives of this refusal can
net in any way be admitted by France, M.
tidion will not take charge of the despatch
and that the President will please to find
another opportunity to forward them.
lie concludes by recommending to the pro
tection of the President such Frenchmen as
business compels to remain at Port au Prince,
enough he had advised them to depart. Up
l“ tills die President had issued a proeluina
t-on dated from the National Palace, on the
i-tlt June, in which he states the causes of
l!!C ,x ' s ‘ing disagreement. It appears he
• i-t ,oi agent to France for the purpose of con
cai mg a treaty with the government which
remove the difficulties between the two
countries, and that this agent exceeded his
pun era and concluded two treaties, with con
ations he was not authorised to subscribe to,
in- waich the President therefore refused to
ratify.
Haiticns, the proclamation goes on to
“* 3 Consul General of France ha's de
c ared, that in consequence of this refusal to
' l l Motions of friendship between France
, n< 'l ll * l * have ceased. What reflections

In compliance with our promise, we now-pro

At half past 3 the Party re-assembled, at the
'lower end of Meeting-street, whence they moved
in procession to the d'avition at the corner ol Meet

dine. The Pavilion was constructed and decora
ted as follows: It was in the form of a Pentagon,
coverihgan area upward of 9000 feet. The din
ner tables were arranged to accommodate I'-’OO
persons, but nearly 300 persons who had provi

posed of Palmetto trees, planted around, at equal
distances of ten feet, the foilage of which, grace
fully blending, gave a beautiful finish to the

there was a large medallion and eUcr five feet and a
half in diameter; at the side of a Pavilion, on
which the Presidents, the Governor, the Revolu

placed, a medallion w ith “George Washington

Toe Newspapers are publishing a letter from
an American Lady in London in which it is
ollr Minister, Mr. M’Lnno, speaking
of William the Fourth, remarked that he “would
almost rathej.have the feelings of that persona; e
at the dissoluti m of Parliament, than those of any
other person that has ever lived. We hope Mr.
M‘Lane used no such expression, and we do not
believe he did; but if he did so express himself,
tve have only to say that his countrymen will nei
ther agree with him in the sentiment, or thank
him for having expressed it. Tnecond t r ,f the
King of England since his accession to th. ’>rnno,
and more especially upon the occasion alluded to,
h is been in the highest degree praiseworthy, and
we blame no man for speaking of it with
enthusiasm; hut no American citizen would be
justified in so unqualified a declaration as that j
attributed to the American Minister. We repeat
our disbelief.— Camden Journal.

A letter from Savannah, dated 10th inst. re
ceived by last evening’s maTl, furnishes the fal
lowing partielars of a melancholy accident which
happened the preceding day, on the river, some
miles below that tow*n.
it appears that the steam-boat George Wash
ington, wliich had been towing a vessel down i
the river, was on her return, when a bout, on board
of which was Mr. Isaac Scupper, a highly re
spectable mechanic, who has been engaged for
some time past, with a number of workmen, in
erecting a Beacon, &c. for Government, went,
along side the steam-boat, in a boat w ith six
hands, to put a letter on hoard for town. Hav
ing delivered the letter, the boat continued in
tow' of the steam boat, until she got abreast of
the place at which Mr. S. wished to land—when
he directed her to be cast off; some difficulty oc
curred in loosing the line, and three or four of the
hands getting into the bow of the boat at once
for Ihe purpose, the boat at the same time taking
a broad sheer, instantly filled, and all hands were
precipitated into tho river. As soon as their sit
uation was nhserved on board the steam boat, her
engine w r as stopped, and every effort was made
to save them ; but before this could be done, Mr.
Scudder, with three of his workmen, Lad sunk to
rise no more: the other three were saved.

Coalition Veracity —The opposite papers have

The office of Secretary of War, according to their

whom else. So w*ith tiie office of Attorney Gene

truth, how ever, is, that Judge White, the only one

succeeds Mr Berrien. These romances, however,
the very aliment cf the coalition party, served

the upper divisions of the Rail Road. 'The rioters
committed some acts of damage upon the road and

preserve the peace, will be attended with success.
The number engaged is said to be large—some

Death of Ex-Presip' xt Monroe.
The lastNew-York papers inform us of the de
mise of tills distinguished statesman. Ho died
in that city, at the residence of his son-in-law,
Samuel 1,. Gouvcneur, Esq. on tho FOURTH in
stant in the 73d year of his age. Like the vener
able and illustrious Jefferson and Adams ho ex
pired on the Anniversary of that day which de
clared us a “free and independent people.” These
coincident events are certainly of a strange and
Im,V*V“.Wq ♦ iiwJT A .’C Ci.il iih ti Aw^GaAiAa
sanctity to the day, and seem to call upon us to
reverence it with more than wonted adoration.—
Can such things be produced by the influence of
circumstances, operating upon high and patriot
ic feelings, which have survived even the influ
ence of age 1 We think so. Jefferson, Adams,
and Monroe, had passed the limit usually allotcd
fo mortality, and was subject by the due course
of nature, to be gathered at any moment to the
bosopn of their fathers. Why then, may not the
proud and glorious recollections of the Fourth,
have possessed so keen and agitating an influ
ence over those illustrious spirits, who had con
secrated it by their actions, as to precipitate their
dissolution, and establish the triumph of mind
over matter 1
MR. HAYNES.
The amvexed “Circular" of this gentleman is
•
an answer to various interrogatories which have
been put to him on questions of leading political
importance, in relation to our municipal concerns.
We admire the free, frank and fearless manner
in which he has met them. They display those
qualities which we like to st-e exemplified in the
character of a patriot statesman. He submits him
self to the scrutiny of public opinion, end ii not
above answering questions which relate to sub
jects of State or National concernment. If wc
had more politicians of this stamp, who instead
of trimming their sails to every breeze that flut
ters, would but cast their anchors into the bottom
of principles, we would soon ride out the siorms
with wliich we are continually assailed by apetu
lent and boisterous faction.
In tendering to Mr. Haynes this expression of
our approbation for the manly and independent
course which he !ms pursued, we cannot, at the
same time withhold our dissent to his appearing
at this critical juncture, before the people of Geor
gia as a candidate for the next Executive Chair.
In opposing a gentleman who has already passed
through the ordeal of popularity, and whose
sound administration of our government lias net
only in a great degree silenced the wailings of the
opposition, hut wrung from it a reluctant appro
bation, Mr. H. would, we humbly conceive en
danger a continuance of the very principles for
which lie contends. Mr. Lumpkin can be easily
driven from the field if be contends single-handed
with Mr. Gihncr: but if the influence of the par
ty is to hew'eakened by a division efils strength,
the result of the contest is doubtful. Let Mr. H.
maturely reflect upon this, and w*e think he will
reach the conclusion at which wc have arrived.
And having done so, we feel confident that he
will defer preferring his merited claims upon pub
lic f.ivbr, until a more auspicious period. By pur
suing a course like this, he would have the satis
faction of knowing that he was mainly instru
mental in uniting and rallying around one com
mon standard, the Democracy of Georgia.
TO THE PEOPLE OF GEORGIA.
Having been repeatedly asked by mv* fellow
citizens, my opinion upon the subject of an im
mediate survey and occupancy of our Ciierokce
Territory—if reserving the geld mines to the
State—and the policy which 1 advocate in relation
to the continuance or abolition of the Peni—uttary
system —The relation in which I stand to the peo
ple, demands of me, a public avowal of my senti
ments, upon these important questions.
I advocate the immediate survey and occupancy
of the ChercketJ knds, because I believe itgoo3
policy, and theihierest r f the people require it.
' l oppose resets to Use State, because I main
tain, that in a ftpubhetn government, the public
domain is the common property of the citizens
and ought to be distributed lor their benefit alone
—and iam decidedly opposed to a continuance of
the Penitentiary System, formally good reasons
which need not he now stated. *
Respectfully, your fellow-citizen,
T. HAYNES.
CHEROKEE CASE,
“The opinion of Justice Thompson, in which
Justice St on/ is said to have Concurred, has been
published in several of the New York papersjand
spoken of as evincing great ability and zeal in
the cause of the Cherokees. Justice Thompson is
of opinion, that an injunction ought to be granted
against the State of Georgia, and maintains that
the Cherokees arc a distinct foreign nation, recog
nized as such in all the treaties made between
them and our government.”
We make the above extract from the Charles
ton Courier, received by to-day's mail. Jus
tices Thompson snd Story may have displayed
“groat zeal” in advocating the “ cause of the
Cherokees”—butif the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, and the Laws of Nations,as expounded
by every public writer, mean any thing, or are to
be,relied upon as authority, these honorable Jus
ticiaries have certainly not displayed in their o
pinions that “ great ability” for which they are
lauded. They may indeed, like Mr. Wirt, have
displayed— “geeat ability” in sophisticating the
question and in doing wrong to their common
country—or like Bolingbroke, they may pride
themselves in sacrificing a just principle at the
shrine of a brilliant period. But such exhibitions
of mercenary policy, or political figure t tork, how
evershowy they may be in their displays, must
eventually disgrace their authors. Our govern
ment is a practical, not a theoretical one. lltr
rights, as a nation, are plainly laid down hy every
writer on the Laws of Nations, and in no instance
has she ever violated them, lb r municipal or in
ternational rights too,arc also pretty plainly defined
and whatever may be the diversity of opinions
which may exist in relation to their constitution
al exorcise, we are free to say, that she has never
exercised them to the detriment of our Aborigines.
But. why should we make declarations with which
every enlightened and honest minded man must
be familiarly acquainted I—lt is only a rense of
duty which impels us to it, and the great eonsid-
erati-in, that “the price of Liberty is eternal vigi
lance.” We. therefore irmigr. the opinions of
Justice Thompson and Justice btory, as disrepu
table to the intollbren >e of the age, and to the in
tegrity oi our Judicial Department. The Con
gress of the U. States, the Supremo Court, and
almost every Legislature in the Union have de
deciared against them.
MR. INCHAmT
There is a great deal of political mysticism in
the extracts we malcc from this gentleman to-day.
His speech merely amounts to this: he does know,
and does not know what occasioned the change ki
the Cabinet! This is in the spirit of his conduct
towards Gen. Eaton, and very strongly resembles
Falstaff’s adventure to Gndshill, when bn en
countered the ten menin buckram. “Ten, Hal—
I told you ten.”

ed upon for a Toast, addressed the assemblage
in a spirited and eloquent style, and qonclu
ded, amidst long mid reiterated plaudits, with
the following exhortation to the State Rights
men of the south :
United we stand —Divided we tall.
By Dr. C. W. Stflrgus.—The Political o
pinions advanced by Mr. Lamar—May they
be treasured by otate Rights men as a miser
treasujes his gold.
The following truly Spartan, patriotic and
spirited Toast was sent to the Committee of
Arrangements, from the Ladies :
“We had rafher be the Widows of State
Riglris Men than the Wives of those who will
not di fend their Rights.”
By J. F. V, at kins, 2d Yica President.—
The State ofGcorgia—lt was reserved for her
while an offcast from the nation’s favor and
the devoted victim of aspiring power, to un
furl to the tempest that rocked her existence
the glorious banner of STATE RIGHTS,
sustained in triumph over the head of her op
pressor by the fin,i hand of her own gallant
son. /
By Hardy IL rbert.—ln tho language of
Clinton, “As well might Congress tike cog
nizance of agriculture, common schools, uni
versities, penal codes, and the w hole range of
local and internal regulations, as of roads and
canals.”
By C. T. Pollard.—Gov. Gilmer, of Geor
gia ; a worthy disciple of the Troup school—
With such a Governor to ouch southern state,
our liberties will be safe.'
We publish to-day tho Proclamation of Gover
nor Duval ordering anew election to be held fora
Delegate to Congress. Some of the friends of
GoL White are very much dissatisfied at the mea
sure, end ask by what authority anew election
was ordered, it proceeds from the circumstance
that both candidates had the eamc number of
'*ot : s according to the legal returns of the votes.
Th. returns of a. number of votes given to both
candidates, wer? manifestly illegal and incom-
P.h'te, :nd therefore, could notie taken into con
id, r *i mby the Governor. The law prescribes
wlr.t shall constitute a complete return; and we
presume Governor Duval did notconsider himself
vested with the power of rendering nugatory a law
passed by the Council and approved himself.

Liverpool, June. I—Our1 —Our cotton Market, last
week, underwent no material change, none cer
tainly for the better. The trade bought sparingly,
and contended throughout for lower prices, ami
in which in some instances, they succeeded; this
however being only partial, we resume our quo
tations for all kinds. About 1300 hales Bengal
and 700 E. India were bought for exportation.
The chief sales in Upland and Mobile were at
ssasg; in Orleans from 6Ju6j, and in Tennessee
from sJasg pr lb.
In East Macon on the 13th inst. Mrs. Martha
Bakkr, aged 17 years, wife of Benjamin H.
Baker. Farewell my friends ! whom my heart
holds most dear. When 1 beheld thy aged sire
on his knees beside thy dying bed, lilting bis toil
hardened & supplicating’hands, to the Almighty
Ruler of the Universe, in behalf of his darling
child, methought thy dying eyes beamed with ce
lestial radiance cud thy spirit communed with
those heavenly Messengers sent by him to convey
thy happy spirit, to mansions of eternal bliss and
everlasting felicity.
“ I saw thy mother bend o’er thy bier,
M ith her eye upturned to Heaven !•
I heard no sob, I saw no tear,
But hex inmost soul was rjvqisl”
Little, ah! little, did I. think when with a light
and gladsome heart, I joined the gay and laugh*
'ng b reup, to escort you to the Ilymenial Altar,
there to hear you prouounce those sa,. ed and sol
emn vows, that joined you to a beloved husband,
tnatl oiiould be so soon called upon to mingle nay
♦ea-s with those who wc re to consign thy sacred
ashes to the dust. “But of dust thou art and to
dust hast thou returned.”— Communicated.
