K the house of a Mr. Stephens, on Sunday last, the

Unico Hejo brigs, and schooner liarharclla.—
j Captain 11. was informed by the squadron that
‘ they expected the blockade would continue a

• the diliicullies being settled. The Mexicans
were lilting out two vessels of war at Vera Cruz,

The following post masters have been appointed.

The Cotton Crops in Mississippi.
Having travelled, says the editor of tho Vicks
burg Sentinel, in his paper of the 20th nil., over
a considerable portion of tho country this sum
mer, and conversed with men from different patts
of tlic Stale, we have no hesitation in saying, that
the crops of corn and cotton, except on the Mis
sissippi will he unusually short. We do
not think that it will average two-thirds of a crop
off the rivet. The unseasonable planting season
and the frost, seriously injured the cotton. Tho
stand is bad generally in the interior, and tho
long drought has ruined the corn, except on very
moist ground. About Columbus, and in many
parts ol tho country, there was no rain for two
months preceding the Blh of A.ugust, The corn
has been literally burnt up.
We learn that all the Banks in Columbus will
resume specie payments on the Ist October next 1
The Bank of Rome, will also resume on that
day. There remain now hut two hanks in this
Stale to hear from, viz : the Bank of Hawkins
ville and the Bank of St. Marys, both of which
institutions wo have no doubt will bo able to re
sume on the same day.
The zeal and perseverance with which the
Van Buron papers in this State, press Upon the
people the propriety of making the Sub,Treasury
a test question in the approaching election for
members of Congress, shows how important it is
to tho success of the candidates of that party, lo
produce a schism in the Stale Rights ranks. We
(rust that our friends, will, no where, sulfur them
selves to he duped by such an artifice. If they
do, inevitable and total defeat must be the result.
The State Rights parly professes to bo based on
high, permanent principles, coextensive in im.-
- portance with the liberties of the country itself,
f and essential to their very existence. The Sub
-1 reasury is a question of yesterday, embracing
. not one of tho principles set forth iji the creed of
, our party, in the Resolutions adopted at its or -
, ganization at Millodgovillo, in December, 1833-
a It is-a question of expediency wholly, as to the
r mode in which the public monies shall he collect
ed, kept and disbursed—a question which from its
very nature, must be a question only, until its
success or its failure shall have been determined
by tbo test of time.
B Shall a party, then, which is based upon para.
0 mount principles, and which has been built up
1 by years of struggle, suffer itself lo be sacrificed
“ by the artifices of tho very enemies who have
warred against its existence at every step, until it
had wrought out its own triumph by the triumph
of its principles? Wo call upon every Slate
Rights man, every opponent of the abuses of
s .Tackson s and Van Buren’s administrations to
e stand forth in support of the ticket entire and un
it divided. If the integrity of tho Slate Rights
parly is not worth preserving at such a lime as
this, its principles are of much loss importance
.s than wo had imagined.

s Fire in Baltimore.
On the morning of the 31st ult., in Baltimore,
in an extensive Cabinet Maker’s shop, belonging 1
e to Mr. John Needles, in Hanover street, near
n Fratt-strect. The fire originated in a large four
story building in the rear of Hanover sheet, which
with every article in the shop, comprising a large
amount of unfinished work, lumber, tools, turning
( lathes and other machinery, including a steam
’ engine, was entirely destroyed— the house was
insured, and the furniture, to tho amount of 0000.
|g The adjoining house occupied as Cabinet Ware
j. Room, was also destroyed, the contents of which
e were mostly saved. On I’ralt street, the fire soon
reached the roof of the American Hotel, occupied
by James Gaskins, the roof of which, as well as
the wood work of the third and fourth stories,
were burnt, on the west side of the Hotel, the
e flames extended lo two or three buildings, which
_ were hut slightly injured. The injury sustained,
y it is said, w ill he fully made up by insurance.

l*ublie Works.
Ann sta, (ti i.) August 31, IS3B,
j '« the I'lHlum of ih ‘ CunstilutinnuUst,
C Nri.KMi v; Confident, as I am, that ynu
will chccrlully co.-opcra'c to preserve the morali
ty of our people, and to improve the habits of
our fellow beings, I call your allcnlion 10 our
public works. As Georgia has so nobly com
menecd Ibo vast anil glorious works of infernal
improvement, and ns years must elapse before
tbese works shall be compleleil, and her great
resources developed, consequences of vital im
portance to the well being of our people are
herein involved. We must, in most cases, re'y
on the labor of white men for the execution of
tbese works: Ami many, alas, of those who
crowd our Kail R aids, are vitiated in a melan
choly degree; they come to us from the northern
ami middle Slates, where their morality bos been
awfully trilled with, where ardent spirits have
been freely administered to them for the purpose
ol getting more work done, and where contrac
tors are luckless of the dreadful consequences to
their fellow beings, viz; intemperate habits, pro
vided they make something by the job. A
Heathen poet once said, ‘ O cursed thirst of
money, what dos’t thou not compel mortal hearts
to do,” What would he say, did he live in our
day, when the God of Mammon is so universally
worshipped!—That those poor people, whose lot
is cast m so humble a sphere, aro corrupted in
ihe Northern towns and public works, is mani
fest from the fact that the laboring pour who come
to us direct from Europe, arc industrious, moral
and temperate.
As there, is no vice more easily communicated
by example than the destructive vice of intem
perance, is it not to he apprehended, that our
youth and oven our citizens will bo contaminated
by their every day beholding the disorders, the
immoralities, which arc the consequences of the
free use of ardent spirits! And am I not justi
fied in asking, is it not Ihe imperative duly of
flail Hoad Ifirectors and Kail Koad Commis
sioners to control their agents? Agents can
control the contractors, the contractors the men.
And thus the habitual, nay, the occasional
drunkard will be banished from our soil, or re
quired to ho temperate. I have visited shantces—
-1 have had considerable ncquaintnnce with the
laborious class ol society ; 1 have bad some years
o( experience, and judging from the frailty of
our nature, ami this weak resolution of mun, 1
am forced to conclude, that whilst the laboring
man’s stomach is daily saturated with ardent
spirits, it is almost morally impossible for him to
abstain from fuiliter stimulation on idlo days,
and Sundays. Though our Slate has been as
free as the neighboring States, fiom excesses on
our public works, is it not yet evident to every
observer, that there is great room lor improve
ment? Some efforts have been made in this holy
cause, hut alas! how fruitless in some eases—
how inefficient in ethers!—lf our Rail Koad \
Directors would encourage such contractors as
Mr. While, whose advertisement appears in tho
subjoined article, taken from a Philadelphia pa
per, whatha;py results would ensue ?
“We, the undersigned, want hands, to whom
we offer good hire, good lodging, and good hoard,

“The long winter nights shall not bo nights of
darkness to our hands ; candle light shall be
supplied, neither shall the stormy day afford an
excuse to seek the haunt of intemperance, all
can read or write, as their taste leads them. An
Irish history shall form part of our liltlo library ;
pens and ink will be supplied free of charge.
“Then is it expecting too muck that the whis
key sliarfee shall be shunned. On our section
we would as soon ;;;!roduce the plague, as such
a receptacle of vice, where the '.wife and the inner
cent child, arc robbed of the poor man s t ..r 3 1 1; ” -
and where crime is planned against their fellow
men, which is the more to be lamented, because
Irishmen aro proverbial for warmth and kind

A Family ok Savaoks i\ West Jersey—
Sudden Death.— On Saturday morning last, the
body of Mr. Jeremiah Bacon, was ftmncl lying
near a well on Ids farm at some distance from the
house in which he lived. It is supposed he fell
dead while in the act of pumping some water, as
one ol his hands slid rested on the pump handle.
ihe subject of this notice was wc believe, one
ol the oldest native inhabitants in Hopewell town
ship, ami with another brother and two sisters
lias resided on the estate left them by thoir father
ever since his death, which occurred many years
ago, very muen in the same way as tho soil’s he
being found dead in flic field ! The management
of the affairs devolved entirely upon tho deceased '
and a sister who died last spring. And although 1
they lived n ore like savages than civilised people 1
yet the l ive of money was strong with them, and 1
the on|y pleasure they scorned capable of enjoy- ‘
ing, was that ol hoaiding up their earnings. The 1
brother and sister now living arc incapable of la- ■'
king care of themselves—for twenty years or I
more lie has been suffered to wander in tho woods -
in a slate of perfect nudity and whenever the t
cravings ol appetite impelled would return to the t
house satisfy his hunger, and in the morning flee 1
again to bin biding plani-s, bring seldom if ever t
seen by the nearest neighbors. Tho overseers of i
tho township finding it necessary since the death |
ol Jeremiah, to lake charge of them and their cl- |
sects, he was pursued and taken. Ho was thinly j
covered with hair, somewhat resembling the coat ,
of a very old opossum, and stoutly resisted every ,
effort to clothe him, and for several days refused J
to eat any thing.
On examining lliolf miserable abode which was 1
scarcely fit for docent swine to live in, there was I

TWELVE HUNDRED DOLLARS in SEE- i
CIE, two hundred in good bank paper besides n I
quantity of bank notes converted into mice nests,
which were so effectually destroyed as not to be
able lo estimate their denominations nr value and
several small sums of money have since been
found on the premises, and doubtless more re
mains hidden that will never bo discovered.—
Since the suspension of specie payments they
have sold nothing, having an utter abhorrence of
shin plasters t Tbo cattle ami hugs on the farm
have been rwo or throe times (attoned —in the
celnr was found sovcinl hogsheads of wheat near
ly destroyed by the rats which were numerous
and so venomous as almost to dispute the posses 1
sion with the owners! Their property will pro
bably amount to six of seven thousand dollars,
and the only grief manifested by tho survivors
was, that their money was to be taken from them.
Such is an imperfect sketch of this wonderful
family,which although living within two miles of
the village of Bridgeton, seems lo be as unknown
as if their residence had been in Iowa? A paral
lel circumstance in all its parts we think cannot
be found in the United Stales. — JJriitc'elou

them! Tins is wbal the democrats say—tins
is the singular tone of their public presses and
their resolutions at “large and respectable
meetings.” What a curious transformation
have wo here! Until about twelve months
ago, tin: hired organs of Van Duron, from the
Globe down lo the most diminutive ‘ thumb
paper” in tin: pay ot the parly, literally groin
ed beneath the slanders and abuses heaped
upon the luilbliers. Those patriotic advocates
of slate rights were denounced as “enemies of
llie Union" —as disorganizes—as apostates—
as mercenary and ambitious anarchists—as
madmen —as traitors. Those, with, a thou
sand other disparaging epithets, were reitera
ted from the press—lioni the legislative forum
—from slumps—from street corners—from
groceries —until ihe public car was almost,
dealened with the persecuting clamor. Cal
houn, and 1 lay no, and MuDutlie, ami Preston,
were threatened with the gibbett ot traitors—
with lire halter of felons; and even the most
humble individual who advocated the creed ol
nulldicatiui: was insulted ami persecuted mid
b ssed, wherever lie went. Vet now those
relenting persecutors have become extrava
gant eulogists of the H. Carolina doctrines,
and proless to love the nulhtiers even as David
loved Jonathon. There has been no change
of sentiment on the part of slate rights men
to authorize n corresponding change of feeling
on the part of their opponents. Nullification
is, this day, what it has always been; and il
the doctrines were so nauseating to the deli
cate olfactories of democracy in past years,
by what singular process are they now inhaled
ns the sweet perfume of political perfection?
Have Ihe democrats changed? We suppose
they will nut acknowledge this; for they arro
gate great claims to consistency and firmness.
How, then, wc ask, have these political unii
pod> s been brought logolhoi? They ate now,
amt always have been, ns remotely disconnec
ted in political sentiment as are tire tteouln ol
the United Stales and those ol Gluna, in point
of geographical situation. They bear lo each
other no more resemblance than daikncss and
light. They really possess no more amalgama
ting properties (so far as political sentiment is
concerned) than water and oil. For instance
the democratic party, as they call themselves,
are opposed to all the reserved rights of (In
states —thoir acts tend absolutely to render
tins a grand consolidated government—they
approve the Icdern proclamation of gen!.
Jackson, which certainly asserts principles in
direct opposition lo the republican creed.
Nuihliers, on the contrary, have over buttled
