MISCELLANEOUS, From the Boston Daily Advocate. True. Magnanimity. —It is the exclusive pro. pertvofa mind to be capable of graceful ly acknowledging and atoning fora small fault. In a recent discussion inCongress,on Mr. Wilde’s motion to reconsider the vote for printing the Massachusetts Tariff resolutions, Mr. Adams said he regarded the motion of Mr. W ilde as an insult to Massachusetts. We thought, at the time, from the uniformly gcnMernanly deport, ment of Mr. Wilde, that he could not have just ly drawn out this rebuke. In fact, we believe lie was perfectly correct in the motion he made relative to those resolutions, which We must 'think highly discreditable to Massachusetts, in their terms, although they have the approbation of Mr. Adams. In defending these resolutions, which were wrong in themselves, and therefore not justly defensible, Mr. Adams committed an. othererror, by using an expression entirely for eign to his usual correct course of remark and i his high sense of decorum. Having inadver. tcntly committed such an error, ordinary men would persist in it. Not so with Mr. Adams. He took the first opportunity to explain, and so frank and high-minded was his conduct in this Tespcct, that his friends have reason to be gra tified that he committed an error which enabled him to give to Congress an example like this of moderation and the true dignity of the gentle man. On Friday, the motion of Mr. Wilde again 'cnnif lip* Mr. Adams, who had not concluded his re marks on the preceding day, Said that heinten. ded to say hut few words when the hour expired on the former day—and he now intended to oc copy the attention of the house hut a few mo meats. He had before stated that he regarded the motion of the gentleman from Georgia, (Mr. Wilde,) as an insult to the state of Massachusetts, On reflection, he wished to modify that observa tion, and he regretted that he did not see the gentleman who made the motion in his place, lie ought rather to have Said, that if the House sanctioned the motion made by that gentleman, it would be an insult to that state. He wished to make this modification of his former remark, because he believed the gentleman from Geor gia, (Mr. Wilde.) did not intend the motion asan insult. It was only doing that gentleman jus tice to say, and he said it with the more pleasure in his absence, that during the period tlpat he had enjoyed the pleasure of his acquaintance, he had been satisfied that there breathed not a more accomplished gentleman. He did not be lieve him capable of insulting either a State, or the humblest individual. For himself he would say, that his intercourse with the gentleman, though they had disagreed in opinion upon the most important subjects, had been constantly at. tended with personal kindness and courtesy. He was, therefore, as unwilling to wound the feel ings of that gentleman, as the gentleman himself was to wound the feelings ofothors. I He well knew that gentleman to be deeply sensitive to every thing which affected his own honor. In the excitement of the moment he had made the remark which he now wished not to have used. He desired the remark, that he considered the motion of the gentleman as an insult to the State, might he so modified as to convey the idea that tiie sanction of the House 1 to the motion, would be an insult to the State of Massachusetts. He certainly should consider such a vote in that light—because with what ever force of language the views of the report and resolutions had been expressed, they were far more mild than had been received fromoth cr States of the Union. A vote of the House reconsidering the reference of these papers, could only be founded upon a discrimination be tween the States. They would, in fact, be di vided into two classes; one of which might be permitted to insult the House with impunity, while the slightest expression of disapprobation bv the other was not to be endured. He was willing to take upon himself the vindication of the expressions which had been excepted to in » these papers. [From the Philadelphia Sentinel.] LETTER OF BISHOP CONWELL. I 1 Weisnarked the following patriotic letter to from the venerable head of the Ro. man Catholic Church in Philadelphia, tor publi cation, a week or two ago ; but have hitherto been prevented from carrying our intention into effect, bv the press of foreign intelligence and more especially bv the proceedingsofour nation al and state legislatures, which, at this important crisis, are looked for with intense anxiety by -every American citizen, who properly estimates the value of the free institutions under which he lives. We are indebted for the letter of Bishop Con well to the Irish Republican Shield, to whose editor it was furnished by the author for publica tion. The sentiments contained in it are such as to do honour to the head and heart of the ve nerable bishop: Philadelphia, Dec. 1, 1832. Mv dear Sir.—the blood of the Martyrs kill* «d at Wallstown and at Kilkenny, under the specious pretext of law, by hired assassins, sen for that purpose (as it is reported) by the Mar quis of Anglesea, has excited the sympathy & an • gry feelingsof all mankind. The friends of Ire. land & of humanity in this country, derive somt - consolation from the hope, that the time is no • very remote, when the cries of the widows anc i orphans of these murdered victims, will call forth f the vengeance of Divine Providence, to punish the authors of such atrocities. The payment of tithes is the ostensible cause • of the cruelties that have lately disgraced your r unfortunate country, in consequence of which ■ that system cannot be tolerated much longer.— The wisdom of parliament will at length see the necessity of abrogating that iniquitous law, when it shall appear that there is a general deeply rooted hatred and aversion to tithes impressed on the minds of the people of Great Britain as well as of Ireland ; and it is well known that this is the case at present. The man, therefore, who will rid and free the nation from this grievance, will deserve well of his country, and merit the gratitude of posterity, as well of the present ge neration. Without praise or fulsome flattery, in the sin cerity of my heart, I consider you to be an in strument in the hands of God, for the purpose of effecting that great measure, as well as a repeal of the Union, without which, the King, who is the bond and essential head of the Union, cannot, properly speaking, be called the King of the U nited Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, be cause, since the period of the commencement of the interregnum, which has now lasted thirty two years, that is, since the dissolution of its national parliament, Ireland has been re duced to the rank and situation of a province, and must continue to be so until its parliament shall be restored. Persevere, therefore, boldly in the underta king, Without fear or trembling ; but never let your natural courage, or passion of any kind, (excuse this inuendo) tempt you to be guilty of a breach of the law, which your enemies wish sor 1 . YouT object is not to Counteract or oppose the la\t% but to procure the repeal of all bad laws and bad systems. I am an Irishman by birth ; America is my country by choice artel adoption. Asa true-born Irishman, I cannot but feel a lively interest in the welfare of my native country. Under all circumstances, 1 conceive it to be my duty to contribute my meed irt aid of your laudable en deavors to effect and accomplish the great work of real radical emancipation and. reform , which you have been at all times, busily employed in promoting, for the good of your country ; and for this purpose, I send you a bill of exchange, amounting to ten pounds stealing, which I re quest you to hand over for me to the treasurer of the National Fund, and let me have the ho nor of being inscribed as a member of the Irish National tliticnl Union. The public agitation, created by the election of a fit person to fill the presidential chair, has hitherto prevented the people from meeting to take into consideration the means of raising the Irish National Rent: this matter, however, will net be long delayed. My friend, General An drew Jackson, the president President, is re-e --lected. Wishing you health and long life, with every blessing, I have the honor to be, with the greatest esteem and respect, your most sin cere and faithful Friend, and Servant in Christ. HENRY CON WELL, Bishop of Philadelphia. To Damel O’Connell, Esq. M. P. Holt's Hotel. —We are informed by a corrcs pondent who yesterday visited this immense es lablishment, that the enterprising proprietor is likely to realize his most sanguine expectations in the success of his house. It has been opened scarcely a month, and he now dines over two hundred gentlemen at his ordinary, and at least two thousand in the various rooms, daily. His beds, amounting to near 250, have been several times completely filled. To supply his table, ho purchases besides large quantities of cut beef, a fat bulloek every morning, with other meats, poultry, fish, &c. in proportion. He roasts 700 lbs. of provision at a time, the spit being turned by a steam engine. Our correspondent wishes that those who have not yet paid Mr. Holt a visit, would call and view for themselves one of the most extraordinary hotels in the world. The order, regularity, and quiet, pre served there, together with the kind attention of the domestics, are worthy of all praise. [iV. Y. Gazette. Mr. Calomarde, the late Prime Minister of Spain, and the favorite of Ferdinand Vll.,has fled to France. The Queen, to punish him for his intrigues in favor of Don Carlos, banished him to Mahon ; but he contrived to escape, and eluding all pursuit, arrived on the French fron tier, which he crossed under the assumed name of M. de Almeida. It appears that he Wished to fix his abode at Tarbcs. The French Govern ment transmitted orders to the Prefect of the Upper Pyrennees, to receive him with all the respect due to his present misfortunes and past greatness. Itis, however, wished that he should remove to a further distance from the Spanish frontier. The man who was so lately the ruler , of Spain is now a fugitive wanderer, and redu ced to the last extremity of distress. Mr. Cal omarde is about 46 years of age : he is s lort in stature, thin, and exceedingly active. The young Doctor. —“ My father desired me to ax you,” said a medical student to a certain eminent pharmacopist. “ that I might attend you to all your patients, as you know, sir, it is the last year of my time.” “You shall, Bob, vou shall,” replied the master; “ come get your hat.” They entered the sick man’s chamber and the usual circumstances occurred, such as feeling the pulse, &c. As er assuming an appear ance of profound though’, the vender of galeni cals told the wife of the sick man with much gravity that her husband was in extreme danger, and that she had contributed to his malady by giving him oysters. The woman imagined this apothecary dealt with the devil ; at last, owned the fact. When they had quitted the house, Bob inquired with much earnestness of his mas ter, how he could possibly know the patient had eaten oysters —“ you foolish boy,” replied the other, “ I saw some shells under the bed.” The s next time, Bob went alone, and returned to his it master with a ghastly visage, and told him the r- patient was dead by eating a horse. “A horse, i- Bob !” rejoined the esculapian chief, how do you ?- know that?” “O, easy enough. Sir, —I looked e under the bed, and saw a bridle and saddle.” )t d A curious circumstance is related of the Co. h lossus, at the battle of Trafalgar, in which she h suffered so severely. In the heat ofthe action, one of the hen coops being shot away, on the e P°°p, a cock flew on the shoulder of Captain r Morris, then severely wounded; and, as if his pug. h nacious spirit had been roused by the furious _ conflict he witnessed, flapped his wingsand crow. e ed lustily in that situation, to the no small encou n ragement of the seamen ; who, determined not to v be outdone by the gallant little biped, swore he n wjas true game, and, giving him three cheers, |] continued the engagement with redoubled al s acrity. ’ WHEREAS the Trustees 0 ss of the Academy of Richmond County, have .. given notice that they will lease the South Common on the first Tuesday in February inst. and whereas the said S.

Done in Council the 2d day of Feb. 1833. SAMUEL HALE. Ry the Mayor Mayor of the city of Augusta. I Geo. M. Walker. Clerk. I ’ ~~ ' * I TO THE PUBLIC. j mllE controversy between the City, and the Trus- B tees ofthe Academy, having become one of some ’ interest to the citizens, the City Council have deemed it : advisable to give this short notice to the public, of their 1 reasons for the above Ordinance, and the necessity which j called for it. j The City CoUtlcil have been advised and believed, that when Augusta was laid out and planned by the pro > prietory government, the common was defined and ap. ■ pended to the town, for the common benefit ofthe lot I* holders, and citizens, as the word “ town common,” itself seems to import. That being thus appropriated to the public, or com -1 mon use of the citizens, this right has never been taken from them by the legislature, or abandoned by them-’ l selves. Nor has any act been passed interfering with 5 the right of common in the citizens, except at their own request, or for their supposed benefit. That the power to lease given to the trustees* was to * lease for seven years, and has long since expired, and, 1 being then given to promote the health ofthe city, at the . request of the citizens, should not now be exercised, when experience has shewn that the enclosure would most probably be injurious to the health of the city, and is therefore opposed to the wishes of the citizens. f That the City Council, have not abandoned the rights ; of the citizens by paying for a few years for their own property, in ignorance or neglect of the rights of the citizens, which they failed until recently to investigate. * That this neglect is less extraordinary than the un warrantable assumption of a fee simple title in the trus tees, when in fact they never were appointed any thing more than the mere agents ofthe state to lease. That the trustees are themselves conscious that they have no legal title to the common, is sufficiently man itested by the desperate step recently taken by them, of - causing the common to be run out as vacant land, under 3 the law securing head rights-. ? The City Council acting only as the guardians ofthe I rights of the citizens, expect their reasonable co-opera tion in the maintainance of their rights. ’ February 8 68 i ■ 5 SUPERIOR COURT, 1 Striven County, October Term, 1832. , Present the Honorable William W.

THE recent organization, and the rapid settlement and improvements now going on in tiiat interesting portion of the territory of Georgia, known as the Ghero kee Country, seem to require that an additional vehicle of public intelligence sh.-ald be added to ihe number al ready located in different parts of our Stale. For that purpose is this harbinger of the forthcoming “ Herald” presented. Its objects will be to furnish to the cnmmdnity in which we reside, the usual newspaper intelligence, and to its patrons in other sections ol the Union more remote, such information in relation to the mineral wealth, ordinary productions of the so.I, and natural curiosities, with which this section of the country eminently ah >unds, as wil l he both interesting and instructive. Its location in by far the richest part of the Gold Region, and where nature has signally blended the romaritic with the sublime, will give it advantages for the accomplishment of these ob jects, to which but few can lay claim. The limited space which may be devoted to politics, will he occupied in disseminating what we believe to he the old Republican doctrines ol the Jeffersonian school. In this we shall endeavor to he liberal and ie 'perate. —Well written essays upon all sides ot this subject, when they do nor inteflere with the private character of individuals, shall find a place ill our columns; as will also tiiose of a literary, scientific and miscailaneous description. With 'his very brief exposition of our design, we shall submit our work to the public. Upon their decision Will depend its long continuance, and its final success. The first number of the “ Herald of the Gold Region,” will be issued on or about the 19th of March next, on a Super-royal Sheet, and will be printed with new type. The price of subscription will he §3,(10 per annum in advance, of §4,00 at the end of the year. Os those who reside outof the State, payment will in all cases be re quired in advance.

There arc, vvever, particularly at this time, other duties that ni not be avoided so easily. In mitering the political arena, we ‘ may not conceal our sentiments ; for we conceive it our duty, to our triends and opponents, Iriondly to avow them. The State Rig! s’ Doctrines as contended for by the best expounders of the Constitution are those - we avow; we hold that inch state has reserved to her.
