3 BF Commercial Intelligence. ,* Owck or the Augusta Republic, ( November 13, 1849. ) AUGUSTA MARKET. ■ COTTON.— The past has been a dull week in our Cotton trade, although we have quite flat tering news from abroad of the advance in our staple; but the difficulty of forwarding Colton, either by the river or rail road, has kept our buy ers from entering the market freely, and as our planters continue free sellers, our market has been forced downward, although both sellers and buy ers could see no reason lor it—and every day’s business, up to Saturday, was at still lower rates. The news of the Cambria being at hand on Mon day. about 500 bales were sold at old prices. The market closes very quietly, despatches both from Charleston and Savannah reporting those mar kets flat, and prices barely sustained. The sales of the week reach 4834 bales at the following rates: 15 at 9J; 19 at 9j; 105 at 9}; 61 at 9g; 312 at 9}; 54 at 9J; 659 at 10; 152 at 1-16; 741 al 10J; 14 at 10 3-16; 1342 at I0J; 10 5-16; 325 at 10|; 76 at 10 7-16; 460 at 41 bales iii iLqjnts. Amongst the week was 77 bales ol very choice Colton from the plantation of John A. Calhoun, of Abbeville, which brought 11 eta The sales up to Monday were made at about the following prices: Inferior to Ordinary 9 a 9} Good Ordinary to Middling 9j a 9} Good Middling- 9} a 10J Middling Fair to Fair 10} a 10} Fully Fair to Choice 10 j all The receipts at Augusta and Hamburg con tinue heavy, and the shipments of the week, both by rail road and the river, have been about 8000 bales, and there is at least about that quantity already bought, waiting a chance for shipment. The accounts of the steamers Europa, Hi bernia. and Cambria, which have lately been re ceived from Liverpool, carries up fait Cottou in Liverpool to 6}d. per lb., equal to 11 cents in Augusta. This great advance has risen from the great deficiency in their stock, and the very light exports from this country of the new crop, and the prospect of a greatly reduced crop in this country, of tyhich fact there ean ba but little doubt, although i.he favorable fall that the cotton • planters have had, both for the maturing and —■'•■'gathering of the crop, has increased the estimates of receipts. Many believe that the total receipts of the crop cannot exceed 2,000,000 bales, whilst otheie, more sanguine, put down 2,300,000 bales. They calculate that the receipts will lie at New Orleans, 800.000 to 950,000 Mobile 350,000 to 450,000 Florida 150,000 to 180,000 Atlantic States 650,000 to 750,000 1,950,000 2,330,000 Letters received in this city put down the re ce'ipts at New Orleans, from the best information that can be obtained at 750,000 bales, and letters from Mobile estimate the receipts at that port under 400,000 bales. In this State the general impression seems to be that the deficiency will be about one-fifth less than last year, and this is the most liberal calculation made for the Atlantic States. As prices abroad and at home are based upon the extent of the crop, we shall endeavor to keep our readers as well informed upon the sub ject as lays in our power. - REMARKS. —Business of all kinds continues avy; money is abundant; negotiations are Easily made; real estate is improving in value, R " and the improvements going on in our city give indication of a very healthy state of things. ■klM GOODS. HARDWARE, &.c—Our and retail dealcis continue to do » business bot'i with the merchants and uu4 aH the Btl) , ks ol all kinds of goods merchants from 4ji“ interior find no 1; ur their purchase" in our mar- ugitetu has always S’ r “ n good market lor Groceries, and tin’ ■st week has been another busy one for our The supply of all kinds of goods is hea- We have no change to notice in the value t'oilee is improving in price, and is H|HEow generally held at 11 cents for the best lots; a sule of 50 bags inferior Rio was made on Satur ■ day at 10 cents. From accounts from all quar f ters, prices of this article seem to be tending up- ' ward. The stock of Molasses is good ; and all —“-kinds of Domestic Liquors are abundant except New Orleans Whiskey, which is getting scarce. BAGGING AND BALE ROPE.—Sales of Gunny Bagging continues heavy, attd the supply is again very light. Other descriptions of Bagging have been dull sale during the whole season, the preference being given for Gunny. The supply of Bale Rope is still good, and prices remain from 10 a 11} cents. BACON.—Sales of Bacon to some extent were fnadt during the past week ; Sides iu hhds. readi ly brought 7 cents on short time, and a lot of Ten nessee Sides were sold at 7} cents. SALT. —Bales of 7011 sacks were made from the wharf at $1.25 per sack.' The supply at the seaboard, by recent arrivals, is large and daily in creasing, and on Friday we noticed an arrival at Savannah with 5000 sacks ; aud as the boats are through with the heavy business of the season, largo additions muy soon be expected in our mar ket. STOCKS.—Operations m stocks have beeu very limited during the past month. We oinit quotations, as we cannot ascertain of any sales of any description of Bank Stock within the last -fcrtnight. EXCHANGE.—Check" on the North J per per cent. prem. FREIGHTS.—Our river has fallen to where it was last week, and the boats canuet carry oft' more than two-thirds of a load. Freights by the iver and rail road one dollar per bale. Nice Rife Cherries.—VVe were presented on yesterday with some elegant ripe cherries ; just taken from ■ tree in the garden of John S. Walker, Esq. They looked as fresh and plump as if they had not been of the necond growth ; and the blossoms too taken from the Mme tree were as bright as those of spring. [Madison Visitor, 10th inst. Cottox ox Rf.d River.—The Washington (Ark. I Telegraph states that the whole amount of cotton shipped from above the raft this year will not reach 6000 bales. I-ast year over i 35,000 bales were shipped. If the crop had | not been destroyed by the overflow, the amount of cotton raised in the region above the raft would have reached 40,000 bales. Minesota Territory comprises 30,000 square miles of what was formerly embraced in old Northwestern Territory, and 139,000 of the old French Territory of Upper Louisiana, making a total of 169,000 square miles. gTOtt the 7th iust. at night, in New Orleans a mob destroyed the bar and fixtures of the grocery of H. Wilson, No. 9, Gallatin street. It is said that Wilson will bring an action against the municipality for redress. Pkof. Silujestrom.—This distinguished Swedish philosopher, of whom we spoke a few days since arrived on Sunday in the packet-ship Devonshire from England.—New York Tribune. The Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern District of Georgia, commenced its regular November term, in this city, on the Sth inst.. their Honors Judge Wayne and Judge Nicoll presiding. Mr. Brooks, the De puty of our new U. 8. Marshal, is in attend ance. Very few gentlemen of the bar, from the interior, have as yet arrived. We are pleased to see Gen. Bailey and Maj. Howard. We understand that there is little business to transact. Most of the litigated business has been continued over to the next term.

OTlie Office of tlie Republic has been removed to the Brick Building first door below the Eagle and Phoenix Hotel. KT Mr. Win. Clagget being no longer the Agent of the Republic, we respectfully request our subscribers and advertising friends, who have waited to be called upon by Agents, to transmit amounts due us by mail.

Postscript. —Father Mathew.—lnv/ta 'tion to visit Georgia withdrawn.—While in the act of putting the present No. of the Banner to press, we received a communication I from Judge J. H. Lumpkin, Prest. of the State Temperance Convention of Georgia, dated Milledgeville, Nov. sth, revoking the invita tion tendered to Father Mathew to visit Geor gia. The length of the letter from Judge L. pre cluded the possibility of presenting it ii the present No. of the Banner—it will appear next week ; and we ask of our friends of the cause of temperance a suspension of all de cisions upon the matter, until Judge Lumpkin’s letter makes its appearance. KTThe new steamer “ Hancock,” built in Pittsburg, and intended to run on the Savan nah river, cleared at New Orleans, for Savan nah, on the 2nd inst. Her cargo is 117 bls. flour, 128 bls. wh'skey, 25 bls. of molasses, 73 coils ol rope, 20 pieces of bagging, 50 hhds. of bacon, 2700 bushels wheat, 29 barrels of po tatoes, and 119 bars of iron. We hope to see the Hancock at our wharves in a few days. The New York Tribune calls the Augusta Republics “pretended whig paper.” VVhy ? Because it stands up for the south. Il says the southern locos are in favor of slavery ex tension, and the whigs don’t care any thing about it.—[Columbus Times. “ The Augusta Republic, if it has ever said so, does not truly represent the feelings or the action of the southern whigs. It is an able paper, and we commend its zeal in behalf of the south if it would use that zeal more in ac cordance with its own ‘knowledge.’” We copy the above from the Montgomery (Ala.) Journal. That paper contains, in the article from which we take this, nearly a column of remarks founded upon it. We trust our Alabama cotemporary had no desire to find fault with us without a justifiable rea son, and hence we do not doubt it will set us right before its readers. The Journal has misunderstood the case. The Columbus Times does not allude to us in the last sen tence of the extract. It alludes to the New York Tribune. That paper said the southern locos are in favor of slavery extension and the whigs don’t care any thing about’it. It was our course on the southern question which made the Tribune say that the Republic was a pretended whig paper, and in saying so it stated that the southern whigs did not about the extension of slavery. So far m’.’king the assertion ourselves, we denied the truth Oi r, *>e Tribune’s statement, and defended the whigs against its injurious effect. We replied in full to trie Tribune at the time, and notice the above i.nw only to correct the mis apprehension of the si.'‘djfffljery Journal. KJ” Mr. R. W. Walker, a repiTsentativ* to the Alabama Legislature, from Tuskegee, has given notice that ho will early in the session, bring forward a bill authorizing the state to purchase 100 negroes, to be sent to California to work in the gold mines, and the profits of their labor to be devoted to the payment of the public debt of Alabama. Another Rail Road Project.—From the proceedings of a public meeting held in Al bany, Baker county, Ga., we are informed that a new line of Railroad is in contempla tion, designed to conect Savannah with Al bany. KJ” We learn that the Rev. Dr. Boring and Rev. Mr. Winnn, of the Georgia Conference, have been appointed Missionaries to California. A writer in the Nashville Banner and Whig proposes that an export duty of $5 per bale be laid upon all cotton shipped from the United States alter the year 1860. His object is to bring the spindles and looms to the cotton fields, instead of Bending the cotton four or five thousand miles to the spindles and looms. To do this, however, an amendment to the Consti tion of the United States would be necessary ; all export duly being prohibited.—Ex. paper. We clipped the above, a few days ago, trom one of our exchanges, merely to show the opinion of the writer, and to state that in Georgia we have now exemplified some of the advantages resulting from a close proximity of the plough, the loom, and the anvil. An un parralled degree of prosperity is manifested all around us. The busy hum of manufacturing . industry in our cotton mills, furnaces, novelty works, and in al! the departments of enterprise among us, are satisfactory proofs of an upward and onward career of . The Philadelphia Bulletin learns from what it deems "pretty good authority,” that Jenny I Lind seriously contemplates coming tojAmeri ca. We are giatified to observe that Council ' have appointed Thursday* the 39th inst. as a ■ day of thank-giving for the mercies vouchsafed to the city during the past year.—[Savannah : Republican, 10th inst. Compliment to Dr. Wm. Terrill of Sparta.—The Savannah Republican says: Mr. Thomas Powell, an English writer, has just published a work entitled “ The Living Authors of England,” which is dedicated to Dr. Wm. Terrill of Sparta, Georgia, and Mr. Ethan Campbel), of New York. It contains entertaining biographies of Macauley, Dickens, Bulwer, and other literary celebrities. Counterfeit Bill.—The Charleston Cou rier says: We were, recently, shewn a five Dollar Bill ot the Wetumpka and Coosa Rail Read Company, counterfeit, and unsigned, and understand that many of that denomination, as well as ten’s are in circulation, signed and un signed. i We learn by an official announcement in i the London Globe, that Mr. Thomas Edward Lytton, son of Sir Edward Lytton Bulwer, i Bart, is appointed an Unpaid Attache to the British Embassy at Washington. I Fatal Accident.—On Wednesday last, we learn a son of Wiley J. Sterling of this I county, eight years of age, was crushed to : death' by the running gear of his gin. The bodv of the child was horribly mangled, pro ducing instantaneous death.—[laGrange Re ! porter, 9th inst. Georgia Legislature. So far, but little has been done by this body. The oigauization of the two Houses took place on Monday. On Tuesday the Message was received and read—on VUdsesday, the ceremonies of the Inauguration came oft", and on Thursday night the Ball. Bills have been introduced in the House, by Air. Fish, of Bibb, to abolish imprisonment for debt, in certain cases; by Mr. Morris, of Franklin, to amend the 2d section of an Act passed the 24th of December, 1833, entitled an Act to levy and collect taxes for the poli i lical year 1834. Also a bill to repeal an Act passed the 22d December, 1840, abolishing the office of Adjutant General of the State of Georgia, and to revive an Act passed the 28th of December, 1836, organizing the same.— By Mr. Shackelford, of Casa, to alter and amend the Tax laws of this State, to encour age sheep husbandry in the same, and concern ing dogs. Mr. Hendricks, of Dade, offered a bill to alter the existing law relative to the lien of judgments so fur as personal property is concerned. Mr. Jones introduced one to repeal all laws now of force in regard to the importation of slaves into the State—and ano ther, to appropriate $200,000 to connect th* Rail Roads terminating at Macon and Augus ta. By Mr. Lane, of Hancock, to incorpo rate the “Hancock Steamboat Company.” On the ninth (Friday) the resolution of Mr. Sanders, ol Butts, to bring on the election of Judges on that day, and the substitute of Mr. McDougald, of Muscogee, to put off the elec tion and give it to the people, and the amend ment of Mr. G itfin, of Mall, to refer the mat- i ter of the election of Judges to the people, for I an expression of their wishes, gave rise to seme discussion upon the motion of Dr. Phil ips, to lay the whole matter on the table. It was finally decided to bring on the elec tion on the ISth, this day. In the Senate, Bills have been introduced of a local aud general character ; the most im portant of which are one by Mr. Purse to au thorize clerks of the Court of Ordinary to grant marriage licenses to Jewish Ministers. By Air. 'tiller: to amend the several Acts in re lation to the Georgia Rail Road and Banking Company. Also a bill authorizing Rail Road Companies to subscribe for, purchase, and hold stock in other Rail Road Companies. By Mr. James E. Brown: to alter and amend the 6th section of the third article of the constitution, and giving the election of clerks of the Courts of Ordinary to the people. By the same: to give the election of county treasurers to the people. By Mr. Miller: a bill authorizing the holders of the scrip of the Augusta Canal to dispose of it to the City Council of Augusta. By Mr. Sandford : to regulate the mode of sue ingon bonds of executors, administrators and guardians. By Mr. Love : to restrict the lien of judgments in certain cases. Mr. Chappel's Eulogy. Our correspondent has written us a lengthy criticism upon the Hon. A. H. Chappel’s Eulo gy upon the late President Polk, delivered at the Capital on Thursday last. We are com pelled to exclude most of it for want of room. Our correspondent thinks it was rather dull and prolix—We copy only the following. “Funeral orations and eulogies are difficult to write or deliver, more so than any other style of composition. Many things ought to be said in a biography that would be out of place in an eulogy. There are many more to which a passing allusion only ought to be made. De tail belongs not to such an occasion, albeit we that impropriety IRlWfflie life of an it would a beniflpeitt influence on society and tend to exhibit the goodness of his heart. Jn fact we do think it would be ip better taste to fill an eulegy with the history of sucli facts, than to introduce even but a single political act, about the policy of which opinion is divided in the audience present. Air. Chappci went at large ipto the political history of Mr. Polk and vY«n talked about tjie glorious results of the Mexican Wsr, when we a re here upon the eye of dissolution ID consequence of it, and it did certainly seem to strange and inconsistent move any how to stop a Legislature in its work that before it adjourns is bound to pass resolutions bitter as gall against the Willmot Proviso, to pronounce an eulogy upon a Southern man who had signed a bill with the Wilmot Proviso in it. KT Well done for old Emanuel—she is hard to beat. PRODUCTIONS OF EMANUEL. Messrs. Editors : I planted 43 acres of pond land, belonging to Mary A. Johnson, lying im mediately on Scull's Creek, Emanuel county, of which I measured as near an average acre as I possibly could, of which I gathered 60 bushels of Corn, which average will make a yield of 2,580 bushels from the 43 acres. E. B. Johnson. Plank Roads.—The Savannah Republican, of 10th inst., says: “We counted, yesterday, the load of one of our draymen, who had a teain of three horses, and found there were forty sacks of salt. The load for two horses before the plank road was built, was six ; the team, therefore, was drawing four and a half times the amount they could have hauled on a sandy road, and apparently with more ease.” KTA meeting was held at Marietta, on the 2nd inst., to take into consideration the policy | of building a Plank Road from lhat town to Dahlonega. A very able and satisfactory re port was made at an adjourned meeting on the <Hh inst., and the inftmtory steps taken to ob tain a charter, locate the road, and realize, at an early day, the advantages which must re sult from the construction of the road. The road, it is supposed, will be 64 miles long. Memphis Plank Road.—The correspon dent of the New Orleans Picayune, writing from Memphis, Tenn., 30th lilt., says: “ They are now constructing from tins city I to Holly Springs, Miss.—distance about forty- ! five miles—a plank road, a new thing in this country, which is done by laying thick planks I on their edges side by side. The contract has I been taken at 85000 per mile, and a few miles ; of it is already completed. The people of 1 Memphis and North Mississippi are anxious to connect themselves with the rail road, now in course of construction from Charleston to. Nashville, by striking the road at Chattanooga. This was the leading object of attention at the Memphis Convention of 1845. A part of this contemplated rail road was graded some years ago.” Waysesborou&h Rail Road.—The Sa vannah Georgian, of the 9th inst., thus notices the action of the City Council of Savannah on this subject: “ Our City Fathers have respond ed to the expression of the opinion of the peo ple assembled in August last; and authorized the Mayor, yesterday, to subscribe for two thousand shares, of one hundred dollars each, in the stock of the Waynesborough Rail Road, upon the same terms as individual sub scribers. They also requested his Honor, the Mayor, to attend, as the representative of our I city, the approaching convention of subscri | bers to that slock, and, in the event of ina bility to attend, they authorized him to select I a member of the Beard to attend is his place.” Election of Judses by the People. In the editorial correspondence of the Con stitutionalist, of the 9th instant, we find the following, which we extract from among oth er matter on the same subject: “Several bills were offered in the House, and read the first time. The most important was one offered by Mr. McDougald, of Muscogee, providing for the election of Judges of the Su perior Courts, by the people. The bill sets forth in a preamble, that the present mode of elections by the Legislature, is without the authority of the Constitution of the State of Georgia, and a usurpation of power belonging to the people. (This position is true in tact.) * * * This bill is evidently got up without much consideration. But as it was not expected to be passed, but is a mere party manoeuvre of the whigs, it did not matter much, we suppose, with its authors, to how many objections it was liable. The provision that the present incum bents shall hold on till February next, is un constitutional, since they were elected in pur suance of that instrument for four years, and their commissions are for that period. The whigs do not desire any bill at all to pass giv ing these elections to the people. * * * During the past summer, the issue was again tendered the whigs, as it had been be fore, by a portion at least of ’he democratic press, and not a response could be obtained from them. The whig presses, the organs of whig public opinion, were silent—perfectly mum, with one or two exceptions. They would not discuss the question. They would not take ground for or against the question. It is due to candor to say, that almost an equal indifference was manifested by the body ot the democratic party. The people did not respond in loud and decisive language to the appeal. There had been no sufficient discussion on the subject—no decisive expression of opinion by 1 the people in favor of the change. Under | these circumstances, it would seem uncalled | for, and officious in the present legislature, to make a change from the present mode.” Our opponents, and some whigs too,appear to express surprise that the measure of giving i the election of Judges to the people, should have emanated from a whig, in the form of a legislative Bill to that effect. That need not excite surprise. Some months since, when the question was agitated, to some extent, we stated that the whigs would not oppose such a measure, if the people were in favor of it.— The people are sovereign, and can do as they please. They can take the election of the I Judges into their own hands, or leave it where it now exists, as they see proper. This they can do, and ask neither opposing whigs nor democrats, any odds. We believe with Mr. McDougald, and the Constitutionalist, that it is an usurpation of power for the legislature to elect the Judges. But many years, and precedent has sanctioned the mode of electing them, and it is for the people themselves now to say, whether they will longer do so. What right has the Constitutionalist to say that the whigs are opposed to the election of Judges by the people? Have the people yet expressed their opinion on the subject? Do they not consist of the whigs, and the demo crats? Does not the Constitutionalist say, after alluding to the indifference of the whigs to change the mode of election, “ It is due to 1 candor to say that almost an equal indifference , was manifested by the body of the Democratic I party? The people did not respond in loud and decesive language to the appeal.” How then can the Constitutionalist say that 1 the whigs are opposed to the change ? How . can it say that, when it expressly declares I “There has been no sufficient discussion en the subject; no decisive expression of opinion by the people in favor of the change.” That is our opinion. So far from the change being a favorite measure with the people, we have seen no evidence that they desire it at all. As, however, the question has excited a_good d-ni that the people wish to take their own hands, and others that they do not, we see no objection to a call upon them, to de cide the matter at some future election, by en dorsing election of Judges by the people, or no election of Judges by the people upon their tickets, The people can do as they please, let s fepr think as they may. For ourselves, we have the utmost confidence in their virtue and in telligence. They, their property and their lives eyefi, at';} qt those who think they would barter away judicial offices for partisan seryices, without regard to qualifica tion, have yet to inspect the secret springs of human SStioQ, The great ipass of the peo- | pie possess a firm and vigorous virtue, un known to a majority of mere politicians and greedy seekers of office. They seek the pub lic good, not alone from public spirit, but also, from that of private and personal interest. No party could succeed, even with a large majori ty in its favor, in electing, by the popular suf frage, a member of its ranks, to the high and sacred station of a judgeship, if incompetent, insufficient, or corrupt. Should it be done in a single instance, it would prove a disgraceful calamity, from the consequences of which, the people would ever afterward seek relief in a more watchful and guarded distribution of judicial honors. This is our position. We see no particular neces sity for the change. Our Legislators have, as ; a general rule, given the people excellent Judges. We would, however, be pleased to see an expression of the popular desire upon I this subject, at some future election; and should the peopledesire the change, we should but submit to their wishes, not only with res- ' pectful deference, but with the utmost confi dence, that they would make the Bench equal ly as respectable, competent, and incorrupt, as it has been, and now is, under Legislative ap pointment.

Whereabouts not Known.—The boundary stone determining the point where the line be tween Pennsylvania and Maryland strikes the Delaware line is lost, and owing to the pecu liarities of the boundary line, it will be difficult to find its place. “Staggeringin the Faith.”—‘Thecause of temperance with us,’ said a gentleman in Vermont, in repertiug on the subject, “is the cause of the popular voice; though it evident ly does not lie very near the hearts of some, who at times give visible evidence of stagger ing in the faith, by reason of some unseen in- I fluences.” | [Editorial Correspondence.] Milledgeville, Nov. 9. Tho imposing <■< ,m>ny of the inaugura tion transpired at 12 M. on Wednesday. The floor, the lobby, and the gallery of the House, were crowded, with an audience, of which any Georgian might have been justly proud.— “There were gathered together from all parts of a great, free, enlightened and prosperous State, grace and female loveliness, wit and learning, the representatives of every science and of every art.” The young aud tije beau tiful were there, the aged and the middle-aged —the holders and the seekers of power—the givers and the expounders of the law—the great, the good, the pride and hope of the land. Contrast only enhanced the interest of the dazzling spectacle. Side by side, sat the grave matron and the smiling belle. In the same brilliant c 'terie, where shed the gay and graceful plume its native lustre, drooping weeds pointed to the grave and the past. If| anticipation smiled on one hand, memory wept on tho other. There stood the man of God, the devout follower of the “meek and lowly one,” and here the brave old soldier, covered with scars and laurels won amid the battle’s storm, when the “stars and stripes” were iu trouble. “All the various kinds of interest which belong to the near fiid to the distant, to the present and the past, were collected on one spot and in one hour.” Rarely have we ever seen an audience so well calculated to excite the fears or the emu lation of anorator. About noon, G.W.Towns, Governor elect of the State of Georgia, conduct ed by tbe-£#*sidetfrm the Senate, and a joint Committee, appointed from both houses for that purpose, and attended by a retinue of eloquent orators, profound jurists and great statesmen, entered the aisle of the House, and advanced to the speaker’s chair. It was a proud moment for Georgia. Her gallant sons and fair daught ers had come down from her high mountains, and up from her sequestered vales and valleys to witness the man first in their hearts, kiss the Holy Evangelist, of Almighty God, and in the dread presence of Jehovah, solemnly swear “I will faithfully execute the office of Govern or, of the State of Georgia, and will, to the best of my abilities, preserve, protect, and de fend thes»id State, and cause justice to be ex ecuted in mercy therein, according to the Con stitution and laws thereof.” They were there in their strength, and such an array of gifted minds, such a host made the occasion a proud one for Georgia. While the solemn ceremony of inauguration was in progress, the mind involuntarily sped away on the wing of fancy, to contemplate the sublime grandeur of organized government. Here be fore us were the real characters, and we were witnessing the incipient preparation for our peace and protection for two years more.— One mau was there, in himself, the reflection of the public will—and we were looking upon a scene, the practical result of which, was the guarantee of every blessing we then enjoyed. It was a pleasing and solemn theme to con template. As usual, His Excellency address ed the people. Os his inaugural, it is not ne cessary to say anything, as it is already in the hands of every one. While the bearing of the Governor was dig nified, and his fancy chaste, I was disappoint ed, to some extent; for, on this occasion, he did not display the elocution of one of those favored ones, “ Upon whose lips the mystic bee hath dropped the honey of persuasion.” Jus tice to him, however, require- me to add, that it was said, by competent judges, who had heard him before, that he did not do his best on one thmg I am certain, bis Message and his Inaugural Ijoth evince ability enough to make him responsible for either a careless or a feeble administration. If he com mits any egregious blunders, he will be enti tled to uo sympathy from the true patriot. If his administration is a wholesome and a faith ful one, may public gratitude attest the fact, and splqce tho privacy of his retirement, and the evening of his days. u. Milledgeville, Nov. 10. “ There was a sound of revelry by night, And Belgium’s capital had gather’d there Her beaqty and her chivalry, and bright Tlie lamps shone o’er fair women and brave men, A thousand hearts beat happily, and when Music arose with its voluptuous swell, Soft eyes look’d love to eyes which spake again, And ail went merry as a marriage hell.” The inclemency of the weather rendered it necessary to defer the Inauguration Ball to Thursday night—but it came off then, and a brilliant affair it was. Muscogee and Bibb, and Chatham and Putnam, ai’d Richmond and Baldwin, and many other Counties in our noble state, were well represented among the fair who graced the occasion. The company was so very large it because necessary to dance double cotillions the whole evening. The members of the legislature attended to a very respectable number, and the governor hinqself was there (of course,) and led two or three of the reigning belles through the mazes of the dance. We did intend to have told you something übout “flaxen tresses and raven ringlets,” “ marble brows and alabaster neclfs,” “ fairy* forms,” < bright eyes,” “ graceful carriages,” “ gorgeous drapery," etc. etc. But it would be indelicate to talk too plain, and it will be sufficient to say we hope, that nolhing of the kind was wanting. One idea did occur to us and that was, that there surely must be several young widows there from the repeated use we heard made of that term during the evening. About IIP. M., we took supper. The only : allusion all necessary to satisfy every body that it whs all it could have been, is the simple fact that it was got up at Huson’s hotel. Supper oyer, every one seemed to say, ‘ On with the dance, let joy be uncoufined, No sleep till mom when youth and pleasure meet, . To chase the glowing hours with flying feet.” 1 About that time we sloped. It was two : o’clock in the morning, we were informed, : when the company dispersed. p. Milledgeville, Nov.

[Ry Telegraph to Charleston Mercury.] Baltimore, Nov. 9—5 P. M. From the New York election, we learn that the Democrats and Whigs are tied in the Sen ate, and that there Is a considerable Whig ma jority in the House. Consider me Smith.—By J. J. Hooper.— There is a very good story in the papers of the day, which is told of Dr. Maxey, of the University of South Carolina, as I think in correctly, The trick was in reality played by Dr. Caldwell, formerly President of the University of North Carolina. I recollect hear ing it, when a child, from the Doctor’s own lips; and I we|l rerpenilier how he "chuckled at the recollection of tlie consternation into which he threw the students, who bad hquled him two or three miles in his own carriage, without knowing it—by requesting them to draw him back. But whether Doctor Caldwell or Doctor Maxey—or both—are entitled to the credit of haying reyetsefi the saw of a parcel of mad capcollegians, in this particular case, there is one feat which the North Carolina President did perform—his right to the credit is indispen sable. The ‘victim’ would doubtless—if he lives—‘qualify’to the fact?. The old Doctor w*s a small man, and lean, but as hard and as angular as pine knots.— He looked as if he might be tough, but did I not seem strong. Nervettheless he was among the knowing ones, reputed to be as agile “as a calf aud in addition, was by no means deficient in knowledge of the noble science of self-defence.’ Besides he was as ‘cool as a cucumber.’ Well, in the Freshman class of a certain year—and 1 believe the story goes that the fellow never got out of the Fresh man, ibough the Doctor certainly did ‘put him i through,’ in one sense of the word—was a I burly beefy mountaineer of eighteen or nine teen. This genius conceived a great con ! tempt for old Bolus’ physical dimensions, and his soul was horrified that one so deficient in muscl?, should be so potential in his rule. Poor Jones—that’s what we’ll call him—had no idea of moral force. At any rate he was not inclined to‘knock under’ and be controlled by a man that he imagined he could tie and whip. He at length determined to give the old gentleman a genteel private thrashing, some night in the College Campus, pretending to mistake him for some fellow student. Shortly after, on a dark and rainy night Jones met the Doctor crossing the Commons. Walking up to him abruptly,‘hello Smith! you rascal is this you?’ And with that he struck the old gentleman a blow on the side of the face, that had nearly felled him. Old Bolus said nothing, but squared himself, and at it they went. Jones’ youth, weight and muscle made him an‘ugly customer,’but after a round or two, the Doctor’s science began to tell; and in a short time he had knocked his beefy antagon ist down, and was astraddle of his chest, with one hand on his throat, and the other dealing vigorous cuffs on the side of his head. “Ab! stop!—l beg pardon Doctor! —Doctor Caidwell —a mistake—for heaven’s sake Doc tor!' groaned Jones, who thought he was about to be eaten up—‘l really thought it was Smith!’ The Doctor replied with a ‘word and a blow,’ alternately—‘lt makes no difference, for all present purposes, consider me Smith!’ And— it is said—that old Bolus gave Jones such a pounding, “then and there,” as probably pre vented his ever making another mistake as to personal identity, at least on the College Cam pus!—[Horn ofMirth. [From the Philadelphia North American.] Washington’s Farewell Address.— tiy an advertisement in another column, it will be seen that the administrators of Mr. Ciaypoole, the eminent printer, who died recently in this city, in his 93rd year, will dispose by public sale of the original Manuscript of Washing ton’s Farewell Address, a document which has been, and must continue to be, held in the highest estimation by the people of ihis coun try. The manner in which this invaluable paper came into the possession of Mr. Ciay poole, is lully explained in the following mem orandum of a conversation held with him iu 1825, by the late venerable William Rawle, which memorandum is verified by a similar statement, of nearly the same date, in the pro per handwriting of Mr. C. himself. We had the pleasure yesterday of examin ing the “small quarto book” which inspired Mr. Rawle with such “ reverence and de light”—feelings which, we are sure, must be shared by all who enjoy similar opportunities. No one who has ever seen General Washing ton’s manuscript can fail instantly to recognize in this all his peculiarities; and the circum stances referred to by Mr. Rawle—the era sures, and interlineations and transpositions— to those accustomed to composition, admit of no doubt that it was the sole and unaided pro duction of the illustrious man whose signa ture it bears. Even the date, which Mr. Rawle thought might possibly be in a different hand writing, is, to our judgment, clearly the same as that of the whole body of the Address. This manuscript is in excellent preserva tion, and when it comes to be sold, as it has to be, in the settlement of Mr. Claypoole’s estate, we hope it will fall into the hands of the gen eral government, or some public institution by whom it will be suitably cherished. “December 16,1825 —Conversation with David C. Clayfoole.—Having been inform ed that Mr. Ciaypoole was in possession of the original MS. of the valedictory address of President Washington, I had written to him to inquire whether he was willing to deposite it with the Historical Society. In a polite let ter, dated Dec. sth, he declined parting with it. I wrote another letter, expressing a wish to hear from himself an account of the con versation he held with the President in respect to the printing the address, —and he this day called on me, and related that the President having sent his private secretary to him desir ing to see him, he called at the appointed lime, and found the President alone. The latter then informed him that he wish ed him to print, in his daily paper, an address from himself to the people of the United States. Mr. Ciaypoole answered that he felt himself highly favored by the selection for that purpose, as he considered it as a mark that he approved of the mode of his conducting the paper. The President bowed, as assent ing to it, and asked how soon it could be done. Mr. Ciaypoole replied that it should be done at any time he would fix. He requested it might be as soon as possible, and expressed a wish to have the proofs sent to him. The next morning the manuscript was sent down by the same person who brought the message, and It was immediately put to press —both the proofs and the revises were sent to him, and the publication appeared on the 19th September, 1796, about lour days after the first interview. After this Mr. Ciaypoole called on him with the manuscript to return it, but at the same time he told the President, in the most respect ful manner, that he should consider it as an inestimable favor if he would allow him to keep it. The President answered, if it would be any satisfaction to him, he was welcome to it—and they then parted—Mr. Ciaypoole re taining this valuable autographical paper, and the possession of which he has never parted with. After relating t* me these facts, Mr. Clay poole produced to me the original, and I saw with reverence and delight a small quarto book, containing about thirty pages, all in the hand-writing of the great man. It bears throughout the marks of original composition; there are many erasures and interlineations— a transposition of paragraphs, and other indi cations of its coming immediately from the hands of an unassisted individual. I counted the number of lines in the whole work, which answered to 1086, and of lines erased there were 174. Being perfectly acquainted with the hand writing of President Washington, I am satis fied that every word in the text, whether writ ten in regular course or interlined, is his, and his alone, The date, September 19, 1796, was the only part on whicn I had a doubt, and of that I can only say, that being well acquaint ed with the hand-writing of Alexander Hamil ton, Ido not believe it was written by him. It may have been written by the private secreta ry. Mi- Ciaypoole, however, believes it to have been in the hand-writing of the Presi dent himself. (Signed) W. Rawle.
