MISCELLANEOUS*'" Sad Calamity. —Last Tuesday morning, a daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth Renney, aged four years, at Amherst Factory Village, was literally burnt to death. The mother rose early in the morning, and, having kindled her fire In the stove, left her child and went out to milk. Our informant tells us that he heard intense screams in the street, and going to his door, saw a child, black as cinder, with every particle of clothing burnt off, except the shoulder-straps of her gown ! She subsequently stated that her apron caught fire, and she attempted to take it off, but couidTiot succeed, and afer her woollen clothes were destroyed, she contrived to open the door and ran into the street. Her body was, strictly speaking, burnt to a crisp on every part, pre senting a most hideous spectacle of suffering and excruciating agony, while her screams, un til sensibility became blunted from intensity of the pain, were utterly heart-rending. The lit’- tic sufferer survived about four hours, and just before her death related the cirfcumstances. Her mother had cautioned her against tile fire, add she remembered it, but a coal snapped upon her apron, which was in a blaze almost before she knew it. —North :twpi on, Miss., Courier. Hope. —ln the vicissitudes and changes inci dent to human life, in the numerous disappoint ments, sorrows, and afflictions, which, in the al lotments of Providence we are destined toon dure, in the sudden and untimely loss of our nearest and dearest friends, when the husband, at the moment the sun of happiness begins to •bine upon him in all its lustre, is deprived of his only joy ; when the wife is early doomed to roam in this wide world alone, unpitied an un known, what can cheer the mind, raise the droop, iag sou', calm the agitated bosom, and throw a cheering light on the future—it is Hope ! Sweet Hope ! thou heaven descended maid ! visit thou the abode of misery, wipe the tear from sor row’s eye; chase away the anguish of despair; sweeten the cup of affliction with thine all sooth ing dregs! When giddy youth shall leave the paths of virtue and honor, to wander on the barren, yet alluring fields of v ee, when the fond parent be holds the impending ruin of his darling offs uing, do thou remain to afford comfort and consolation; Jet thy healing influence take possession of his heart, and yield relief. When fickle fortune desertsthe good, to leave the tender ones without a home or a friend, do thou put them un lerneath thine all supporting arm, and say to them, “I will never desert thee.” And when mortality shall fail, and the lamp of life but faintly glimmer in this feeble frame, do thou unveil thyself and bid mo wing my way to worlds beyond the sftm, to live and reign in ne ver ending bliss. Simon Foster had a f »ot of extraordinary di mensions. It was long and broad, and covered as much space as an ordinary snow shoe. In truth it was a most ungraceful, huge, and mis shapen appendage to a rather good-looking leg. Lewis Holkins one day was ridiculing its ap pearance until Simon's patience was nearly ex hausted. “ My foot is lather large, 1 confess, Sir,” said ho, “but it is the better calculated to administer the chastisement due to imperti nence.” “ That may be true,” exclaimed the wit, “but it wobld prove a perilous undertaking, for if yoh should miss you mark, your leg would fly off." It is a current story, that a doctor, having purchased his diploma, in the course of riding through Aberdeen, desired his man John, when waiting at dinner, not to forget his new dignity, whenever he addressed him. “ Noa maister,” replied John, “ if so be as how 4bu don’t forget mine ;” showing him at the same time his doc tor’s degree, which he had purchased in imita tion of his master. A Frenchman, shipping at a tavern, asked for Jacob : “ There is no such person here,” said the landlord. “ Tis not any person 1 want sare ; but de beer make warm wid de poker.”— “ Well,” answered the landlord, ‘-that is flip.” 41 Ah ! yes sare, von are in the right; I mean Philip” During «hc time of the persecution of the protestantsin France, the English ambassador demanded of Louis XIV. the release of those who had been condemned to the gallies on ac count of religion. “ What would the King of England say,” answered Louis, “ if I were io desire him to set free the prisoners in Newgate ?” “Sir,” replied the ambassador, “his Majesty would undoubtedly comply if you claimed them as your brothers!” Fr»m the Cincinnati {Ohio) Chronicle. EFFECTS OF KISSING A YOUNG L ADY. Our legislature have had quite an animated debate upon the legal consequences of a mar ried man kissing an unmarried lady. As the ume question appears to bar* engaged a co-ordinate branch of our government—the Supreme judicial fribunal of Ohio; —and as there are a great many married men and un- L * married women within the limits of this State, r we deem it advisable to notice this case with i - some particularity, especially os it must be borne *• in mind that ignorentia legis nem'niem excusat. n ft appears,that in 1822, Jen miah Moore, mar s ried Miss Polly Prough. In 1825 tl’ey began to f grow tired of each otherand their chain gradual ly losing its silken lustre, the husband soon af e terwards, very ungallantly, solicited the Su s preme to grant jiim a divorce from his e said wife Polly. From the legislative debate, to - which we are referring we learn, that the ap plication wasrefused on the following ground : f While the parties were living together ih a f state of amicable indifference, they attended a party at a neighbor’s bouse, which had assem i bled to boil apple butter. In the .course of the evening “Mr. Moore laid his sleeve around the : shoulders of a young woman, while setting at the fire side in company with others, and draw. - ing her up in his arms, gave her n kiss.” —This * fact being made known to the Supremo Court, they refused to loosen Mr. Moore’s matrimonial • chains. From this it is to be inferred, tliat there i is in Ohio, neither statute nor common law, au thorizing married men to kiss unmarried women. Mr. Moore, not satisfied with this decision of the Supreme Court, has made his appeal to the legislature, and at our last dates the question was pending be ore that body. The speakers were discussing the ethics of kissing, and censuring the Supreme Court for their decision. As the matter is one of vast importance, and as it affords a fine field for fine speeches, it is altogeth un certain when our august legislators will return to the body of their constituents. - 4 Ti’urh nf the young Attorney in one of the interior counties in AUharna had volunteered his services in behalf of a man accu sed of a murder. He arose and addressed the jury as follows : It is needless to say it produced a great effect. “ Gentlemen of the Jury. —ln this town I have passed some ofthe happiest daysof my existence, it is the scene of my childhood—l have pursued , the rural wa,iks and silvan scenes of this delight ful place : I have watched the sylph like form of beauty as she glided through the mazy dance. All my earliest recollections and fondest hopes are clustered here. In throwingmy evsaround this delightful apartment I behold many ofthe earliest friends of my lather —his dearest, fond est associates. Oh ! how my throbbing bosom beats with gratitude to the Great Dispenser of all good, that he has enabled me to return once more to this delighful village— Ho end my days ; amid Fs enchanting pleasures,” He proceeded thus far—and stopped for want of breath—stood a few moments, viewing the audience—as if conscious of a mighty effort and again commenced with these words. “ Gentlemen of the jury—it is a pretty tough case : I don’t exactly know what to think of it: you must use your own judgment about it.” From the Pittsburgh Statesman. CONFESSION OF A THIEF. The Mayor of this city has lately received from Jacob Hays, high constable of the city of New. York, a communication, in which he says that “ William Whiteman has stated that he went to Pittsburgh, in Pennsylvania, about the first of December last, and remai i<?d there till about a week before Christmas. During the time he was there, he entered a large dwelling hous" through a window from the hack piaza, and took abon’ seventy dollars in Pittsburgh notes, most ly five dollar bills, about 820 in silver, mostly in half dollars; and silver plate, principally spoons, and one cream pitcher, which property he took to his boarding house, viz : Alderman Carr’s. He went over into Alleghany town, and there, in the night entered a house f.om a front piaza, through a door, went into a room up stairs w here several persons were asleep, and took a I silver patent lever watch from off a bureau, and then went down he4mv: broke open a small trunk, and took out a -SUM) bill of the U. S. P»ank, payable at Pittsburg—also took out of the same house silver spoons, teapo's, cream. 1 pot£, sugar dishes, pitchers, &c.. as ho coul i carry—Bßoo or S9OO worth—and took them s o his lodgings, and put them all in his trunk. He then staited from th; re t'tnd wen' to Wive' ing, but gaveott that he was going *o Was 1 in r ton ; remained at Wheeling one night, and took the s’age to Baltimore, and never stopped til! ho reached that place with the money'and property. At Pittsburgh he went by the nr.me of Wm. Kean. At Baltimore he put up at Bamuni’s Ho’e', and a forwards went to a Jeweller’s shop kept in Market Race, by a n an and his son, for eigners ; where he attempted to mel: some of the spoons and part of the plate. Not succeeding in the attempt he called in the man of the shop, who said he would melt it for.him—He supposed he had about 8400 worth. When he first en er ed the shop he stated that he wanted to try somp chemical process. He then took his trunk with the remainder of the sdver, and went to a pawn broker’s shop. There he pawned the patent lever watch for 820, also a barge pitcher and Other plate, for Sso—Ho wont with the remaind er of the plaf»* to another brokers, who refused to purchase them without reference to his cha muter, which he promised ; but not knowing any one he never wont back as or the silver. When he returned to the shopon Market Race, where the silver war mol ed, the man said that the officers were after him, and in cons qucnce he left him with all the melted silv’e* and did not return after i . Whore the watch an 1 silver were pawned, he went by the name of White, and re ceived a ticket which he destroyed.”— States, mtn. Power of Beauty. —Laws were never made for pretty tvomen. A youthful female, adorn ed with grace and loveliness, like the Sovereigns of Europe, can do no wrong. The Now York Courier and Enquirer states that a fashionably dressed female, only twenty years of age, was lately examined by the sitting magistrates on a charge of stealing a worked cap from the door of a dry good store. The theft was fully pro ved. But her beauty and ajtood of tears procu. red her release , with an admonition that if she was ever found repeating her offence, ffhe would be sent to the Penitentiary. i I Nauticaldescription of a young Lady. —“ Ont s evening I wns walking in the Pinza, ween 1 saw a > female ahead, who appeared to be th< , prettiest moulded little vessel that I ever cast i my eyes on. I followed in her wake, and ex * amined her; such a clean rim I nwver beheld —so pent, too, in all her rigging—every thing . so nicely s'owed under hatches. And then she > sailed along in such a style, at one moment lift . ing so lightly, just like a frigate, with her ‘.op . sails on the caps, that can’t help going along. . At another time, as she turned a corner sharp i in the: wind—wake as straight as an anew—no » leeway, 1 made all sail to sheer along side of her, and when under her quarter examined her close. Never saw such a fine swell in the i coenter, and all so trim—no ropes towing over hoard. Well, I said to myself, ‘ it, if her figure-head and bows be finished off by the same builder, she’s perfect.’ So I shot ahead, and yawed a little—caught a peep at her thro’ her veil, and saw two black eyes —as bright as beads, and as large as damsons. I saw quite enough, and not wishing to frighten her, T drop , ped astern. Shortly aftc rwards she altered her rourse, steering for that white house.. Just as she was abreast of it, and 1 playing about her weather quarter, the priests came up in proces sion, taking the host to somebo ly who was dy ing, little frigate lowered her topgallant sails out of respect, as other nations used to do, and ought now whenever they pass the flag of old England * ’ ‘ How do you mean ?’ in quired I. “ I mean that she spread her white handkerchief, which fluttered in her Hand as she went along, and knelt down upon it on one knee. 1 did the same, because I was obliged to heave to, to keep my, station,, — N. Y. Qonslrljntion. pjgg* 5 * WHEREAS the Trustees ‘ of the Academy of Richmond County, have given notice that they will lease the South Common on the firs,t Tuesday in February inst. anc| whereas the said s. Oo rrinion is of the progeny of the city of Augusta, 6 hafe not been leased for enclosure or cultivation but with the consent of the citizens of Augusta, and by special Legislative enactment, neither of which has been obtain ed to authorize the enclosure or cultivation of said com mon. And whereas the City Council believe that the en closure and cultivation of the said South common will prove injnrift'is to the health of the citizens generally. Sec. Ist. Beit therefore ordained by the City Council of Augusta, that it shall not be lawful for any person or persons to make any fence or enclosure by ditch or other wise in any part of the common of Augusta, w "uth of Watkins Street. Sec. 3. And be it further ordained, that any person who shall piake any enclosure or part of enclosure un der any pretence or in any manner or form whatsoever, shall he fined in a sum not exceeding one hundred dol lars, for each and every day such enclosure, part of en closure, fence or obstruction shaft remain. Sec. 3. And be it further ordained, that each <fe every fence, ditch, enclosure, part of enclosure or obstruction, shall be considered a nuisance and it shall be the duty of the city Marshall and all other officers of council, to abate such nuisance, by removing any fence or other ob. structions made, or found on any part of the said common South of Watkins Street.

JOL tees of the Academy, having become one of some interest to the citizens, the City Council have deemed it advisable to give this shtfrt notice to the public, of {heir reasons for the above Ordinance, and the necessity which called for it. The City Council have been advised and believed, that when Augusta was laid out and planned by the pro prietory government, the common was defined and up. pended to the town, for the common benefit of the lot holders, and citizens, as the word “ town common,” itself seems to import. That being thus to the public, or com mon use of the citizens, this right has never been taken from them by the legislature, or abandoned by them selves. Nor has any act been passed interfering with 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, being then given to promote the health of the city, at the request of the citizens, should pot now be exercised, when experience has shewn tha 1 ' the enclosure would most probably be injurious to thv health o! the city, and is therefore opposed to'he wishes of the citizens. That the City Council, have not abandoned the rights of the citizens by paying for a few years for their own pr ’perty, in ignorance or neglect of the rights of the citizens, which they failed until recently to investigate. \ That tins neglect is less extraordinary than the un warrantable assumption of a fee simple title in the trus tees, when in fact they never w ere appointed any thing more than the mere agents of this state to lease. That the trustees are themselves conscious that they have no legal title to the common, is sufficiently man itesred by the desperate step recently taken by them, of causing the common to be nm out as vacant land, under the law securing head rights. The City Council acting only as the guardians ofthe Tights of the citizens, expect their reasonable co-opera tion in the maintainance of their rights.

THE recent organization, and the rapid settlement and improvements now going on in that interesting portion of the territory of Georgia, knqjvn as the Chero kee Country, seem to require that an additional vehicle of public intelligence should be added to ihe number al ready located m different parts of our State. For that . purpose is this harbinger of the forthcoming “ Heruld” 1 presented. Its objects will be to furnish to the community in which we reside, die usual newspaper intelligence, and to its pitronsin other sections of the Union more remote, such information in relation to the mineral wealth, ordinary productions of the soil, and natural curiosities, wiih which this section of the country eminently abounds, as wil. bp both interesting and instructive. Its location in by far the richest part of the Gold Region, and where nature has signally blended the romantic with the suhiinn, will give it advantages for the accomplishment of these ob jects, to which but few can lay claim. The limited space which maybe devoted to politics, will be occupied in disseminating what we believe to be the old Republican doctrines ofthe Jeffersonian school. In this we shall endeavor to be liberal and temperate. —Well written essays upon all sides of this subject, \yhen they do-riot interfere with the.private character 01 individuals, shall find a place in our columns; as will also those of a literary, scientific and misc dlaneous description. With this 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 he printed wiih new type. The price of subscription will be 83,00 per annum in advance, or 84,00 at the end of the year. Os those who reside outof the State, payment will in all cases be re quired in advance.

December 99 54 PROSPECTUS FOR PUBLISHING, BY SUBSCRIPTION, IX CHEROKEE COL XT Y, A ice.ehly Newspaper to be entitled the CHEROKEE HTELUGEXCER, TO BE COXDI'CTFD BY HOW ELL COBB. ON presenting to the people this prospectus, the Edi tor deems it superfluous to say t ne word will) re gard to the utility of newspapers. There are, wever, particularly at this time, other duties that m not be avoided so easily. In entering the political arena, we may not conceal our sentiments ; for we conceive it our duty, to our friends and opponents, friendly to avow them. The State Rights’ Doctrines as contended for by the best expounders of the Constitution are those we avow ; we hold that eacli state has reserved to her self, all and every right, not surrendered up and enum erated in the Constitution of the United States ; that they may, nay should, and have reserved for the very purpose, those rights, that whenever occasion requires, they may be exercised : but the states should be care ful, in the exercise of what are called and supposed to be reserved rights, those surrendered up are not viola, ted : lor they are no more the rights of the states than if they had never been exercised by them. The General Government too, must move, within its legitimate sphere, carefully observing w hat powers it may exercise—what are reserved to the respective sovereignties and what have not been granted. While here, we remark that we are uncompromising Union men, and feel and consider ourselves identified with ail those that now rally under the standard of the twenty.four states, whatever minor distinctions may, heretofore, have separated us. As respects the parties’in Georgia, too, we have a word to say.—We have acted with perfect satisfaction to ourselves, with the Republican party. The spirit of that .party will be carried into our labours ; but we wish it understood that we have not, and cannot now consent, to advance our party views and pros, pects by contending against those of onr.opponents ; we offer to our opponents the free use of our columns, if they are properly used. It is useless to say any thing of the intercs'ing coun try in which the Intelligencer will be located—the farmer is invited there by its fertile lands—the un healthy, by its waters and air—the chymist by the valuable treasure found in its bosom. The earliest attention and notice will be given of all new discoveries of gold mines or other valuable curiosi ties The Editor will practice Law in the counties of Che rokee, Cass, Forsyth, Lumpkin and Floyd, pud will be thankful for any business commuted to bis attention in those counties.

All comnmniuatio s intended for publication must be accompanied by a responsible and respectable name. Nothing of a personal character, cither in the form of a communication or advertisement, will, in any instance, be permitted to appear in oitr columns.

A synopsis ot all the sheriffs’ sales will be published .in Augusta, Milledgeville and Macon, at the expense of the proprietor. ; s The paper may be expected to appear by the 20th of February.
