altogether short of what he deemed his reason
able expectations In tins condition of things
being entirely loft alone and without advisers,
every step which he advanced involved him more
and more deeply in pecuniary embarrassment*.
Me admits that he made representations,
which at the time, he Indieved to he correct, hut
many ot* which turned out to he erroneous. Me
was also led hv Ins too confident reliance on
anticipated aid to make promises which he fullv
expected to perform, but which experience has
taught him weie far too strongly expressed. He
vva> also induced, for the sake of obtaining mon
ey to meet his necessities, to resort to methods,
bx the payment of exorbitant interest, which he
did not suppose were in contravention of law,
and which common usage seemed to him to
justify.
Me also in entire confidence in his ability to
replace them, made use of certain trust funds in
a way which he deeply regrets, and although
they have long since been perfectly secured, he
does not now justify. The embarrassments
here referred to were followed bv a long and
well nigh fatal sickness, withdrawing him from
business which he had carried on alone, was
nearly instrumental in the entire failure of his
pecuniary affairs.
The perplexity arising from this failure with
the protracted infirmity which followed his sick
ness, made him liable to many errors and mis
takes which might easily hear appearances of
intentional misrepresentations.
In connection with t|)e assignment of his prop
erty, he set his name and oath to an inventory
of his goods, and also to a list of his debts,
which lie believed to be correct, an act which
he grieves to find has given rise to an impres
sion in the minds of some that he exhibited an
insensibility to the awful sanctions of the oath
ot a Christian man. But while he laments the
impression, he declares that this act was only
clone under legal advice, and the firm conviction
of its correctness.
Some time alter his recovery from the illness
above alluded to, but while he was still in the
midst of perplexities, smarting under his heavy
disappointments, surrounded to
which, in some quarters, lit? bjected, the
letter of the three him. He
lias no disposition to ascribe to them any other
than just and proper motives in thus addressing
him, but at the time when he received the com
munication he viewed it otherwise, and, under
the strong excitement of the moment, he penned
a pamphlet, part of which he does not now jus
tify, and expressions in which in regard to
those brethren, he deeply regrets.
In reference to his indebtedness, he now re
news the declaration of his intention, which he
has constantly made and lias acted on to his ut
most ability, thus far to devote his means, ef
forts and influence in dependence on God’s
blessings to the payment of principal and inter
est of every just demand against him, an ex
expectation of*wffini there is reasonable hope
of having fulfilled, since a Committee of the
Trustees and the Friends of Burlington Col
lege have undertaken an enterprise, which is
nearly completed, to discharge the whole of
the mortgage debt and thus secure the proper
ty at Riverside and St. Mary’s Hall, with that of
Burlington College, to the Church forever for
purposes of Christian education. ThrSrrtone,
the Trustees have further agreed to appropriate
during life, the surplus income of both institu
tions to the liquidation of his debts in carrying
on said institutions.
That in the course of all these transactions,
human infirmity may have led him into many
errors he deeply feels. He does not wish
to justify or excuse them. If scandal to the
church, and injury to the cause of Christ have
arisen from them, they are the occasion to him
of mortification and regret. For these things,
in all humility and sorrow, before God and man,
he has always felt himself liable to, and willing
to receive the friendly reproofs of his brethren
in Christ Jesus, and especially the Bishops of
the Church. [Signed] G. W. Do are,

Death of Sir Charles Xapier. —The Frank
lin brings us the intelligence of the death of the
veteran Sir Charles Napier—of whose danger
ous illness we have had previous accounts. He
was one of the most distingushed generals of
the British army, and had been an officer in dif
ferent ranks and in various parts of the world,
for sixty years.
A Reverend Seducer.
The trial of the Rev. Win. Waller, of the Reformed
Baptist Church, for seduction, in the Carroll Circuit
Court, Ky., resulted in his conviction, and the jury
awarded $5,000 damages. The Reverend seducer af
ter accomplishing his purpose, under a promise of mar
riage, fled to South Caroliua, where he married a very
respectable lady with considerable property ; and will,
we suppose, be able to pay himself out of tbe difficulty.
It appears in the testimony in tbe case tlmt Waller,
after promising marriage, quoted or misquoted various
texts of scriptures, to quiet the scruples of the girl, and
to lead her to the belief that the contract was as bind
ing as if lawfully married. It was not until her situa
tion threatened exposure that he Hod.
Gov. Morehead appeared for the prosecution, and the
Court House was so thronged that many of the crowd
could not even reach the outer doors of the house.—
His closing speech was powerful, and its effect upon the
Reverend sinner is said to have been overwhelming.

Death of Harry R. W. Hill.
No event lor a long time lias caused so mucl
regret, produced so broad cast sorrow, as tlu
tdoatli ol Mr. Hill, which melancholy event trans
pired at Ids plantation, sixteen miles above tbe
city, on yesterday morning at one o’clock. Cu!
oft’ at tbe ripe and useful age of 50 years, he
leaves a numerous body of friends and number
less acquaintances, who truly feel and sym
pathize with each other in the loss which they
and our city have sustained.
Mr. Hill was born in North Carolina, from
whence he emigrated to Nashville, Tenn., when
he embarked in commercial pursuits; from
thence he removed to this city, abut the year
1831. Connecting himself here in business with
Messrs. W. & J. Dick, he pursued with great
success his avocations as a merchant, until it
falls to our duty to rchonicle his death, in the
midst of great usefulness, with the prospect of
becoming the wealthiest and most influential
man of the age. He lived not for self alone. —
His purse was always open to the needy and
afflicted* Mis services and aid to the destitute
will be long recollected, and by those who have
shared of his liberality, his name will be held in
greatefu! remembrance. Governed b} r no sordid,
nor selfish views, when he gave, he gave freely.
To the Methodist Church, of which he was a
prominent and leading member, his loss will be
severely felt. To our commercial community,
his demise will be long and severely deplored.
To his numerous friends and patrons throughout
the country, his death will be a sincere and
heartfelt sorrow.
Mr. Hill was no ordinary man. Distinguised
in all the various relations and pursuits of life,
he goes down to the tomb accompanied by the
unfeigned grief and sorrow of our citizens.
Mr. Hill leaves an only son, just entering
manhood, who is the last member of his family.
The wife of the deceased died a short time
since.
Mr. Hill, since 1851, has presided as Grand
Master over the ancient order ot Free and Ac
cepted Masons in the State of Louisiana, in which
position he has endeared himself to every Mason
in the State, as the embodiment of the great
principles of“Brotherlv Love, Relief and Truth,”
which are the motto of this time-honored brother
hood. We perceive that Acting Grand Master
Holland has issued an order that the Grand
Lodge, and all Master Masons shall assemble
at their hall this morning, for the purpose of as
sisting in the funeral obsequies of their late Grand
Master.
We leave to abler hands to write his obitu
ary.
His iuneral takes place this morning at 10
o’clock, from the Methodist Church on Caron
delet street. —A. O. Delta , Sept. 18.

Maj. A. 11. Colquitt in Columbus.
On Tuesday, the 20th inst., the gallant candidate of
the Democracy in the 2d District, addressed a large
and appreciating audience at Temperance Hall. Ibis
was his first appearance before a Columbus auditory,
though his youth and early manhood wero passed in
our city. His engaging private qualities had seeurred
him a host of friends here, hut very few of us had ever
heard him on the hustings. We, therefore, looked for
ward to his debut with some solicitude, but without
misgivings, as favorable reports had reached us of his
efforts in the lower counties. His appearance in the
Hall was greeted with along and loud applause, which
was redoubled when lie was introduced to his audience
by the venerable President of the meeting, Dr. Iloxey,
for long a Whig, but now the staunchest pillar of De
mocracy in Georgia.
Without preliminary flourishes, our young champion
addressed himself directly to the subject matter iu hand,
and for an hour and a half entertained his large au
dience with an address alike creditable to his head and
heart. We cannot give a better idea of the effect pro
duced by his effort, than to state the criticism of an
old politician who wan perhaps the mr-?t ?olioitious of all
who heard the address, ; s to the effect :t would pro
duce in the present state of the canvass. “How were
you pleased with the addres?” inquired a friend. “De
lighted,” lie replied, “his Father never made so good a
speech at his age.” This was, we believe, the general
conviction. An old gentleman, at least was so inspiied
by his eloquence, that quite forgetting himself and the
occasion, he exclaimed in the fullness of his heart, “Glo
ry to God," —a sentiment by no means confined to him
self, though no other listener gave expression to it.
After reviewing the principals of Democracy, Maj.
Colquitt vindicated the Administration from the feeble
and inconsistent charges of the Conservative party very
ably and successful)', stripped the Conservative leaders
of their flimsy professions of devotion to the South ; held
up to deserved reprobation the hypocraey of their course
in denouncing President Pierce, while they sustained
Fillmore, the Fr* • soiler. voted for Webster the Free*
soiler, and found n<> word of blame for Corwin whose
vindictive Abolitionism shocked the sensibilities of C. M.
Clay the Abolitionist ; denounced the centralising ten
dencies of Dennett's land bill as anew edition of the
ohl Federal scheme of distributing the proceeds of the
public lands among the States ; exposed the aristocratic
tendency of the candidate of the Conservative party for
Governor as exhibited in his advocacy of the Algerine
law. and of a property qualification for Governor, and
concluded by a rebuke, as a severe as it was merited, of j
those men who had charged him with a desire to shrink
from an encounter with his opponent, when they knew j
that he was detained from his appointments by the illness j
of his family.
These of course are but the the heads of his address, I
upon which lie enlarged at length, and occasionally, :
with great force and eloquence illustrated and enforced, j
We presume after this effort we shall hear no more of ‘
Maj. Colquitt’s youth, and want of experience or eapac- \
ity. We were ourselves pleased with his speech—indeed ’
lie surpassed our most ardent expectations. The only
point of regret was that the audience was too large to
hear distinctly the lower tones of the speaker at all j
times.
We now feel more than ever impelled to urge our 1
friends to come up nobly to the support of our gallant i
standard bearer. He is worthy of our support unblem
ished in character, sound in political principles, devoted
to his country in peace and war, sympathysing with
the masses and giving promise of high talents and a
noble career, he is eminently deserving of the suftra- 1
ges of freemen. We believe he can be elected. He is
too, the candidate of the lower counties, which
have never yet had the honor of giving a Congressman
to the District. They have stood up to us in every ;
time of trial, and we must stand up to them. The no
ble county of Baker will roll up a majority of near j
five hundred for her favorite citizen, which will be an- !
swered by one or two hundred from Dooly, and nobly
secured by Early and Randolph. Will not Muscogee j
endorse him too. His early friends and school mates
are here. They know his virtues. Let them honor j
themselves and bless their country by giving to her j
councils a man without fear and without reproach.—
We proudly challenge the closest scrutiny. Young he is,
it is true, but free from the indiscretions of youth, inex
perienced, it may be, iu political contests, but with natu
ral endowments of a high order which will place hint j
ill the front rank of our public men ; honest, sincere, i
brave, chivalrous, he ought to be elected, and we sin- j
cerely hope, and confidently believe he will be. Let :
the people see to it thatjhis name is ou their tickets.
The Thousand Dollar Proposition.
We are amazed to learn that Mr. Jenkins, iu his
speeches iu Cherokee, still t-onkiffe that the law pro
hibiting tbe freemen of Augusta, iwhu were not worth
one thousand dollars.) was from voting for Aldermen,
a good and wholesome law. We are still more sur
prised that there are men who support him because he
was hi favour of such a law, and advocate its adoption in
alt our cities.
Mr. Jenkins, it is true, limits the law to the city of
Augusta, and condemns its application to the State at
large. Upon what principle be justifys its application
to Augusta, and condemns it application to tbe State,
we are not advised. If poor men are unfit to enjoy
equal rights in Augusta, they are certainly equally un
fit to exercise them in the State. The principal is bad
and anti-republican. Every man has a right to vote
unless be forfeits it by crime. The poor man bears
his proportion of taxation ; he bears more than his pro
portion of peril in war ; all the muskets in the Revolution
were in the hands of poor men ; they love their coun
try as much as the rich man does ; indeed they are
more immediately interested in the prosperity of the
country than the rich man is ; for distress first enters
his door; a had crop or poor prices rob him of the j
means of living, while they only deprive the rich man rs
some of his luxuries. Nay, more, as a general rule,!
the poor man is more honest in the exercise of the bal- j
lot than the rich man —he has no private ends to sub- :
serve by an election ; he votes honestly if he does some- 1
times vote ignorantly. Let, therefore, the poor man j
and the rich man stand upon the same level in the j
eye of the law. We utterly reprobate and condemn \
the idea that a man’s worth is to be measured by the j
length of his purse. Intellect, moral worth, public i
spirit and patriotism are the highest civic virtues, and j
not the capacity to accumulate money, though we would j
by no means underestimate this quality. It is good in ;
its place ; but is no guarantee that he who possesses it is j
a virtuous man or a good citizen.
We believe there is no danger of the spread of Al
gerine principles in Georgia. The freemen of this
gallant Stale would not tolerate two ballot boxes, the
one for tho poor man and the other for tho rich—such
tyrany would be put down by the bayonet. But let
the people beware. The price of liberty is eternal vigi- j
lence.

The London Quarterly, tho Edinburg, the North
British, and the Westminister Reviews and Black
woods Magazine come regularly to our office. They
contain an epitome of British thought and progress, and
are universally regarded as the standards of British

in them, but we always hail their arrival with pleasure
as they are sure to afford an intellectual feast. No tnan
who desires to pass for cultivated, can do without these
very superior publications.

Yellow Fever in Mobile.
Mobile, Sept. 17.
The interments to-day were total 30, of whom 26
died of yellow fever. The citizens of Mobile in New
York, had subscribed $4,422 for the relief of the suf
ferers up to Bth inst.; and the citizens of New York
$1,060, and the citizens of Boston $2,100.
The Mobile Tribune of the 17th says :
We stated a few days ago that there were some signs of
an abatement in the epidemic. Those signs, we regret to
say, were delusive. The disease has begun to invade those
classes within whose reach are all the comforts and securi
ties against sickness.
The number of deaths Thursday, considering the reduced
population, is probably as great as that ot any day—per
haps greater.
‘1 he disease, too, is by no means confined to the city
limits. It exists in almost all parts of the surrounding
country. On Ann street, between that and Spring Hill ;on
Spring Hill, and almost every where within the neighbor
hood. It is not either the result of communication with the
city, but makes its appearance spontaneously.
We are glad to see that our fellow citizens in the interior
and at the north are taking into consideration our necessities
and are subscribing the means to meet them. It is impossi
ble to estimate the vast amount of good (limited only by a
lack of money) which our charitable societies are doing; —
our Can’t-Get-Away Club and our Samaritan Society, &c.
They are every where seeking out the sick and needy and
administering aid, day and night, in the kindest and most
devoted spirit.
