Tile Committee on Naval Alfairs, to whom thcsobjcct was referred, made a report, and asked to be discharged from the fnrlbei consideration ol the memorial of certain citizens of C ai lesion 8. 0., asking for the establishment of a navy yard at that place. The Senate then look up the joint resolution authorizing the appropriation of thirty thousand Hollars for the purchase of certain manuscripts of the laic Jaincn Madison. Mr, Calhoun addressed the Senate in opposi tion to the resolution, and maintained that the Constitution did not give the power to make this appropriation. A debate arose, in which Messrs. Preston, Crittenden, Hives, and others, took part in favor of the resolution, and Messrs. Calhoun, Niles, and others against it. The debate was not concluded when onr paper was put to press, HOUSE OK REPRESENTATIVES. Moßruar, February 10, 1H37. The reading of the journal of the. proceedings of Saturday occupied more than an hour. The proceedings in the trial of Reuben M. Whitney, for an alleged contempt, were then ic sumod and the respondent, accompanied by his counsel, took bis place at the bar. The Hon. Mr. Garland, of Va., was railed to the stand, as a witness, and was examined at great length, by Counsel for the accused. Mr. Love, of New York, made an effort to res trict lltc range and length of the examination, and after some remarks from him in support of his objections, ho was replied to by Mr, Key, and the House directed the interrogatory in question to be put. Mr. Garland, of Va. was still under examination at three o’clock, —at which lime a quorum was not in the House. TRIAL OF WHITNEY. Wasiiivotov, Fob. 111, 1837. The ease of Reuben M, Whitney continues to occupy the attention of the House, or rather 1 ought to say, the dial of Messrs. Wise and Pey ton,—for tlie investigation so far lias been exclu sively confined to liter “sayings anil doings” of those two gentlemen. The conduct of certain managers of “the party” in this business ought to cover them wilb lasting disgrace. In obedience to the despicable impulses of their own minds, or to the imperious commands of n passionate old man, they have entered on a course utteily irre concilcable with the principles of law or justice. The march of insolent power has been so rapid »t late, that ilia public mind bus hardly bad lime to recover from the shock of one exercise of des potic authority, befuro another, and another still more daring and dangerous, anil detestable, have been exhibited. 1 verily believe that if Andrew -lackson’were in power si< months longer, and Congress should conliiiu-.'m session, he would is sue his order within that time to have some of the /leading men in each House, Mi. Calhoun and Air. Olay, Mr. Dell, Mr. Wise, and Mr. Peyton, Mr. Pickens, and others nnoatod for speaking lltoir free thoughts;—and that not one man of the parly’would dare to raise his voice against the atrocious set! 1 placed the present proceeding, of the House in a proper point of view last evening. I showed you that by party organization and discipline, a tasolution was adopted which gave to Reuben M. Whitney the privilege of now examining witnes ses, changed the whole scope of lltc investigation, and actually placed Mr. Peyton and Mr. Wise on tUoir trial for a contempt of Whitney. Fortunate ly fur truth and justice, we arc at last approaching the true issue, viz :—How comes it that Messrs. Peyton and Wise are arraigned! and that the pro-, sedition of the charge against ,'L’b- f •*/ I howi abandoned. , * cr "P *rAVuuey lias been This is the - -- 0 that is now reached; and from , ’ •nW cries that were set up when Mr. Peyton title lu ted to probe it to-day, the inference is irresistible that just here is the very heart of the sore. The parly will not, if they can help it, allow this to he touched. Among the questions pul the Hon. T. 1.. Ha mer, one of the witnesses called by the accused, was one by Mr. Peyton, requiring him to state whether he understood the chief object of those whooriginated and supported the present course of proceeding, wss to lay the circumstances of the occurrence in the committee room before the world; ami whether ho understood that this comae was the result ofau arrangement between the ac cused and certain members of this House; and re questing him to slate nil the circumstances on which that understanding was based ! I give you the substance of the inquiry only ; you perceive it comes directly to the point. It was objected to by Mr. McKoon. 1 entered the Hall just as Mr. Peyton was reply ing to ilia objections. His speech was brief—hut it is universally spoken of ns otto of the most powerful bursts of indignant eloquence ever heard in Congress. I never heard any tiling, any w here in Europe or America more effective; except lliat noblest display of impassioned oratory, the short speech of Daniel Webster, during the midnight session of the third of Match before lari, on the Three Millions amendment. Mr. Peyton boldly staled his object to be to find out the author* of the contemptible farce now ex hibited in the House. He believed lliero was an odious and disgraceful combination and conspiracy bet ween this pretended accused, but real prosecu tor, and certain members es lire House. Hero several sensitive gentlemen called out “ordet! order!” Mr. Claiborne and Mr. Yell were more forward than others, and called upon Mr. Peyton to name the members. “ Name! name!” was shouted from various quarters. •‘Names!” echoed Mr. Peyton. “ They are precisely what lam aiming at—l want the names, and, sir, I mean to have thorn ! Gentlemen have been clamorous for proof. I tell them 1 will go with them hesit and soul in pursuit of the proof. He declared that if there was now no shrink” ing, they would have names and facts, not on conjecture or suspicion, hut given by witnesses, who, he doubted not, would prove that there were secret conclave out of ibis House, where lire present course of proceeding was resolved up on, and whence by stealth and fraud it was can vassed into and fastened open the House. O. P. Q. Cushman here started up and called Mr. Peyton to order! Jlul this interruption was promptly put down; and the ardent and fearless orator proceeded. He said ire expected to prove that there was an arrangement made between Whitney and certain individuals. Here again he was interrupted by Mr. Yell, of Arkansas, who wished to know whether Air. Peyton alluded to him I! Mr. Peyton replied, that he had never once thought of the gentleman; and if ho had not risen to interrupt, he would not have known ol his be ing in the House, He hoped ho would now la? quiet! What could Mr. Yell ho thinking about! Mr. Peyton continued : There was an ar rangement by which Whitney was not to be pun ished—but to hove the celat, the triumph of bring ing him (Mr. Peyton) and Mr. Wise to this bur. They never had any design to punish, censure, or molest in any way, this “accused.” This is what he wished to prove. For lids, he wished to examine every gentleman who might know any thing of the transaction. Mr. Peyton dared them to let him have an opportunity of getting proof. Let him have it, and lie would perhaps make those who now hold themselves so high, and use so lofty a tone of exultaaon at anticipated tri umph, stand brfore the house and the country in the chatacter of accessories and allies of Reuben H. Whitney. He said he eared not how sevete was the ordeal to which he was to be sulijecled ; hut then he demanded that lie also might show by witnesses how the present course of proceeding was brought about—lie wished to expose all the dark and disgraceful circumstances connected with it. 4 The party did shrink from the inquiry. A call of the House was demanded for the purpose douhtbt-s of gelling force enough to vote down this question. But it was discovered there was no end a motion to adjourn prevailed. We will arc whether the patty's manager* wll dare to let this question be put tomorrow. If they do not, tlie country will la-lb ve that Iherejbavt I hern disgraceful e.n-plracy and combination with Whitney to put down Messrs.

This action must have, taken place before the information of the truce could have been received by those Indians who made the attack. Infor mation of it had not been then received by Col. Fanning. The forces at Fort Mellon returned to Volusia on the llth. No Indians having been seen about the Fort from the Silt up to the I 1 h.

Ho saw the second male throw himself from a part of the wreck into tho water (thermometer 5 or li bc.'ow zero) to swim ashore, a short distance from that sea wall, hut the undertow took him under the, wreck, and he disappeared.

By this opportunity I send you the official con. respottdence between Lino do Pombo, Minister ol Foreign Affairs, and M. T. Turner, Minister of his Britannic Majesty at Bogota. Although Granadians wish to make it appeal that Mr. Bus- \ sell was in the wrong, yet the plain truth is tilt*. | j Mr. R. was walking one evening, in the streets of; Tannins, when lie met with one Juslo Parades, j with whom he was not on good terms. Justoi began by insulting him with words, and with the I intention of after words boating him with a stick. Russell had a swordcane, and in self-defence inflic ted a slight wound on Paredes. He was immediate surrounded by a great number of Paredes' friends and relations, and after being disarmed, was shame fully beaten und one Uisz, while the others were holding him. struck him on tits head with a club, that nearly killed him. Russell was pul ill a dungeon, and his horse and papers left to the mercy of these cowardly rascals. Such is the account given me by an American gentleman who was at the time in Panama. Now it appears that the English Government insists on satisfaction, and the Granadians refuse to give any. Orders in consequence were given by the commander ol 11. .M. Naval forces for a , general blockade of the |>orl of New Granada. , Already seven or eight vessels es war arc before t Sa! >' Martha, Carthagena and Cltagrcs, and one , sailed this morning for Bio Hacltc.

Phis is not the first instance where they have done wrong ; in many other in* stances they had insulted the French,’American j and other diplomatic ogrnu. After giving you no o*agt account of wKrt ;* 1 II i pissing, allow me to (fire my opinion of this as-1 y fjir, If the Granadians refuse to submit to make I e! an amende honorable , ami beg pardon to the En h gii»h, an cxpcililiun will be fitted out against t-j, Panama, and indicates every thing that one is i preparing, lie assured that when once the Biit ! ish gel hold of lhat important point thru -mill not five it back again, and John Bull will have the glory of having cut the Canal so much talked of i fur some years past. 0 I l e From th* N.

Mu. Jones :—I have recently seen in some of ’ tho leading Journals of this Slate, the names o* ’ various distinguished citizens proposed as suitable candidates to ho run by the Republican parly of Georgia, for Governor, at the approaching elec tion. The right of the people to canvass the claims of the rospoelivc aspirants to such a dis. llnguished station, and to confer their suffrages upon him whose past course adonis the surest in dication that ho will preserve the Constitution, and shield their rights from violation, is as little to bo questioned, ns its importance to the preser vation of our liberties is to be doubted. Conced ing to tho different individuals whose names have been mentioned, lhat admiration for their talents, am' respect for their worth, which they bo fully merit; and without intending to derogate from either their services or their claims, I beg leave to suggest, through your valuable paper, to the peo ple of Georeia, the name of a man, whose devo tion to her into ristg lias never faltered, and whose character and past services to tho country arc as. soc'ialed with unwavering adherence to principle, and title republican sovereignly. That man is George jl. Gilmer, of Oglethorpe.

Ho lias never deserted the true interest of Georgia, and if nominated, the republicans of the Stale will reward ids merit. ANTI-FEDERALIST. Washjxrtox. Feb. 17, 1837. Case of It. .If. Uhitney. —The question pen ding when tho House adjourned last evening, was on allowing Mr. Peyton to propound an in quiry to the witness, (Mr. Hamer, of Ohio,) re lative to tho combination and conspiracy which Mr. P, said he had good reason to bciicve did ex ist between K. M. Whitney and certain members of the House. The train-bands mustered lull and strong lids morning, to prevent this question from being put. It was too searching. Mr. Pey ton, with a view ofallbrdiiig no room for cavil or objection, altered in some measure the form of tlio interrogatory, and requested tho witness sim ply to state whether he had heard any member of tlio House declare that some proceeding should be adopted in order to bring the occurrences in lire committee room (which have been so often referred lo) under the notice of tho House; and it yea, then to slate whether such an opinion was expressed by many members of the House; and whether any member had suggested that the pro ccodings against Whitney for a contempt would lie a proper mode of effecting lhat object This question was manifestly so fair, that not a man of tho party had the front, at first, to take exception lo it. It was handed lo the wilnrss. Ho prepared Ins answer, and returned both to the Chair. Now began the fluttering among the | Royalists and just as the clerk was about to j j read aloud tho answer, one of tlio Regency men \ I screwed up Ids boldness, and objected, on the - j ground that it implied an imputation on the mo tives of members. Mr. Peyton raised a question whether it j j was in order lo object lo a question after tho ■ | answer to it had been leturned ! The Sja’akcr decided it was in order. Mr. Peyton then refuted the objections taken by Mr. Turrill, of New York. He wished to 1 I know whether the real object of gentlemen was ■ j not to eflcct certain members of tho House. He ] 1 believed hs could prove that Whitney, and those' j connected with him, are practising a gross deccf* I tion on tins body and the country. He demanded 1 !in opportunity to adduce evidence to establish ; ‘ Ibis fact. II Such was the force and impressiveness of Mr. i Peyton's appeal, that the House refused to obey ’, the mandates of tho Regency ; and agreed lhat ; 1 the question should lie put, by a vote of 89 to 85. 1 Well done for once ! Mr. Hamer’s answer was most important. He j had heard some members say tha' tile proceedings i in the committee room, which had been referred j to, ought to be brought under tho notice of the . | House. ~ Mr. Wise (hen put a question in order to elicit . i the tact, lhat the object of the present course of , proceeding was to affect him and Mr. Peyton, and | requested Mr. Hamer to state all the circumstances , and objects connected with the conversations, f I meetings, and remarks of members and Reuben . j M. Whitney lhat go to show such was the ob . 1 j pct - . , j This question was objected to. 1 1 Mr. Wish referred to the remarks of Mr. Pcy ’ : lon yesterday, and said they expressed Ins reasons . I for wishing lo put thisquestion. He was on trial he said, and not Rculicn Whitney ! The issue had been made by lie House, whether he was such a character that a peaceful man dared not appear before him. He had not the remotest doubt of the contrivance by which the present course of proceeding was brought about—ami lie proposed lids as ai inducing question to bring before, the House the country the truth. But Im meant to go father, and show whether the Executive Power fras not to be brought to bear against two humhWrnembers of that House. He denounced the coifluct of the parties who had clustered around A'hitm-y, under the pretence of sheltering him frqfh injustice. While they thrust themselves forwird as the champions of justice, they are openly *id flagrantly violating every prin ciple of law asd right, and trying him without notice—wilhautaecusatinn --without arraignment —without even asking him whether he is guilty or not guilty. Ho demanded an opportunity lo unmask his accusers. TUsquestion was rejected! Ayes 73, nocs9s. File young Virginian then put another query, framed with exceeding precision and pertinency, to ascirtain if the witness knew whether the Phe sinr.nr had not advised and recommended the prcseiit course of proceeding, and whether lhat functionary did not directly or indirectly assign as a season for it, that this would try tho conduct of Messrs, Wise ami Peyton in the committee room, urging lhat it was necessary to condemn . that conduct. Mr. Vanderpool, of Kindcrhook, objected to this iaqniry. The President, he said, was not at the bar; and ho did not sec what light this ques tion would throw on tho point at is«ue. Mr. Wise met this objection with great force and directness, and made a moat vigorous and effcclivc speech in reply. “I know Bir,” said he, “that ihc President is not at the bar—neither am 1!-—yet I am on trial as much, and for a more heinous offence, than this pretended accused. I am to he tried for the most atrocious and detesta ble designs—and all I ar-k is to let me know my accuser! I caee for him—be he, high or low base or honored the loo! and minion of power —or Ihc Ttbawt himseil! Is this a land of civil liberty ’—and do you seek to try a man without allowing him tho poor privilege of confronting his accuser V’ “ I am told tlio President is not on his trial. No Sir! But let me ascertain whether he has put tis on our trial. Has he called certain gen tlemen to his palace, and there by appeals to their sympathies and complaints of injuries and perse cution wrought upon their feelings—and then pointed to two troublesome fellows in the Xiaastt. who have conslanlly trespass* l m-s - r and who mnsj hJ, I 1W T?. 1 ""’ -.1-: ill *-'* • irtned off. “Yes Sir,” rx 'V 'muiu .ui. Wise, “that is the word”—“killed off!”—“ Let thorn ho indirectly tried and con demned as assassins !”—was the command. The ardent young orator here seemed strug gling to express tlio emotions that filled his breast. He could not speak as he felt. His form assumed its perfect height—his expressive features were animated by the hold and indignant spirit within —liis eye glanced scornfully towards tlio mana gers in ‘.his prosecution—and in tones of energy and defiance that pierced every nerve of every ear, ho exclaimed— “ I stand here alone I—and I wish to know how many base-horn tools of power tho Tyrant has in this House lo do his bidding—Lot the serfs of this Turkish Despotism stand out and show themselves!” This ques ion shared the file of Ihc preceding. It was rejected of course. Mr. Peyton then put a question, in order to eli cit the truth us to members of Congress counsel ling Whitney respecting the course he should puisne in the Committee and in tlio House ; and also as to their expressing tho wish that lie would refuse to appearand testify. This question was rejected also. Mr. Peyton put another query for tho purpose of ascertaining whether certain members had not declared that they would vote for the present pro ceeding, for the reason lhat tho conduct and de clarations of Messrs. Wise and Peyton would lie brought under tho review of tho House, and that these gentlemen would be thereby disgraced. This was objected to likewise. Mr. Peyton, in maintaining the relavancy and importance of the question, said, ho only wished lo silence tho member or members who had al ready made declarations of this kind ngainst him, and prevent those from silting in judgment on him, who bad thus disqualified and disgraced themselves. Tho question was rejected. I trust your readers will ponder well on those questions which were thus summarily thrown out by an organized and disciplined majority. These are refusals pregnant. Tire next query brought something more satis factory still. Mr. Hamer was asked when he had first seen the written testimony of Mr. Fairfield. He answered that lie had seen it several days be fore he was examined in the House ! So ; —tho matter was all arranged before hand. The suggesting of questions was continued for some lima by other gentlemen; but they were not permitted to be put. The Counsel for the accused then put a few questions, and they wore fidlowed by Mr. Wise. The testimony of Mr. Hamer corroborates the statements made by Messrs. Wise and Peyton in the House, as to the provocation given by Whit ney, and the entirely pacific interposition of Mr. Wise. Mr. Martin and Mr. Gillet wore then railed up on successively, to give in their written answers to (lie questions put by Ihc Counsel of the accu sed to tlio other witnesses. But owing to the lateness of tho hour of adjournment, I must defer any notice of their testimony till my next. [From ibe Savannah Georgian, Feb. 83.] FROM FLORIDA. We have been favored with the following ex tract of a letter, received by yesterday’s mail, and dated Black Creek, Feb. 15th, 1837. “ I have hut a few hours since had the pleasure of conversing with Faddy Carr, the Chief of the friendly Creeks, who assured me that nothing could he more certain than a speedy termination ofthc dilficultics originating out of the hostilities of the Scniinoles. as no doubt could be entertained (hat they are already handsomely beaten, and arc willing to sign a treaty which will he lasting. They had a battle on the Blh hist, at Lake Mon roe, where no doubt there must have been a vast number killed, as the friendly Indians under the guide of their indefatigable aud heroic Chief, dis covered in the sand the trail where they had drawn 73 dead from the battle ground, ami it is the belief of all who were in Ihc skirmish, that the number of wounded must be great.” Later From Texas—By the New Orleans Bulletin of Monday we loam that dates to the 10th instant from Columbia had boon received theic.whicli bring little news of importance, except tile resignation of Gen. Rusk, of the Stats Secret ary ship. (Isa. J. P. Henderson had lieen appoin ted in his place. The ill health of Gen. Rusk is said to have rendered this step neccssaty on his part. Col. Peter W. Grayson lias been appoin ted Attorney General. In reference to the Mexican forces and the prospect of another campaign in Texas, we make tho following extract from the Texas Tele graph. ' Wc leant from a gentleman who liasjust arriv ed from Bexar, than Mr- Navatrn hail reached ■ that place a few days before he left. Mr. Navarro I is represented as being decidedly fiiendly to our i cause, and one whose statements are entitled to credit. He stales that the Mexican forces destined • for Texas, consisted of one thousand troops at ' Monterey; two thousand at Saltillo; two thousand t at Matamoras; and about one hundred at Laredo; • —that they are in a state of insubordination, bad ly clothed and worse led, many of whom are in ■ irons, and the remainder say they will stay there • and fight the Texians if they invade Mexico; but I that they will not nor connot be forced into Texas. ■ He further stales lhat Bravo had reached Salliilo to take the command, but finding the army in i such a disorganized condition, and no money pro f vided for their pay, he had returned to Mexico in 1 disgust. Mr. Ncvarro thinks there is no danger i of an invasion this year. » -• : r :—jr.r~, .as i Copied from the Washington U. S. Telegraph The Trial of Dr. Williams, Oculist, has term’r nalcd. The worthy faculty went out for wool, hut came home shorn. They commenced prosccu tions against Dr. Williams, which ended in the '• death of the pretended society which constituted I them. Dr. VV. was acquitted of all the charges ! alleged against him. bo has this matter ended. 1 It appears to be the opinion of an independent ! American Jury, that the people nan take care of their own health and 6f their own pockets; and that, even if they cannot, they at least, are of opi nion, that the learned medical fraternity, already ' sufficiently overburdened by the vast weight of ■ thcir.own science and multiplied duties, shall not ■ have the additional load imposed upon them of taking care of the health and the money of the 1 community. r TO MR.

THE PEDLAR AND THE QUAKER. ! 1 'Cuming jajjjf sqin $ account 1 - J Wc were somewhat ammseTmo other day ] at the moans employed by a Jittlo Connect!- ( cut pcdler, to get a bag of corn into his pos session, without paying the cash therefor.— ‘ Dreadful crilturs to barter and swop—those pedlers !’ said an old gentleman who witness ed the operation. Sharp or Grindstone Sharp as the podler is called, drove into the v.l age in one of those little parti-colored wagons, so . common to the tribe, and announced that ho had furgotlcn to take his pocket book with him. ‘1 must have some corn, and as I have none of tho riiino, I must have a swap one ’ way or 'tothcr with some of my nicilics— I for I must not go home without a bag of corn i —I say, mister, what do you ax for Hint corn ’ in your wagon !’ The person addressed was a quiet quakcr, who was going to mill, and • who had brought his horse up one side of the bridge to let tho pedler pass by without cap ' sizing his wagon. ‘ I say, misteh, what do you ' ax for a bag of that corn V repeated the sailer of notions. ‘Friend, will thee please to pass on V quoth the qnaker, without replying to the interrogatory— ‘ First tell me what you ax for a bag of your corn]’— ‘ Nine shillings a , bushel.’—‘Ah, I know’d you’d answer the t question—Well’sposo you ain’t no way par ticular ahou!—n—a—the ready money]’— ‘ I don’t know thee, friend—thee may be a rogue.’ 3 —‘Oh ns to that, every body hereabouts knows t Sharp, Grindstone Sharp. Yer see, mister, I’m a leetle hard on’t for change, just now—. and I have a nicety of articles hero, and if | wo could just swap, you know, and you’d 1 take articles in my way.’—Why, friend Grind - stone, if the articles he in thy way, I’m afraid , they’d he in my way too.’— ‘ Oh no—just i look hero !'—As the qunker’s eye rested on 1 lots of essences, buttons, razors, cabbage leaf cigars, pewter watches, &c., which the ac > commoilating pcdler exposed to Ins view, ho t made a motion to drive on. ‘So you won’t ! trade no how, mister]’ said the podler.— ‘ Come, you look ton good na I tired to go off ■ in that fashion—l took you for one, who • cared about some oilier tiling than mere filthy • lucre.’— ‘ Why I tell thee what, friend, Ido not want thy essences, but to show thee I do not seek thy money, 1 tell thee what I’il do, ’ Thee may have a bag of corn for any thing in t thy cart which 1 can turn to the same account —is thee satisfied V ‘A bargain! a bargain ! , hear that, gentlemen ! exclaimed the pedler to a couple of fellows who came up ami were J watching the progress of the trade.— ‘ He , agrees to take any thing in ray cart which he . can turn to the same account with his corn— . mark that]’ The pedler apparently consi dered the bargain at an end’ Jfor he jumped . from his cart, took a bag of corn which the s qnaker not without sonic reluctance, handed • him, and emptied into his box. Having lock -1 ed it up, and pocketed tho key, he proceeded r to fumble among his ‘ notions’ in Iho body of Ins wagon. ‘Something lhat he can turn to the same account with the corn !' he mum hied lo himself-—and his corn going to mill— oli, I have it]’ Ho finally tools out half a ' dozen pen knives, marked at twenty-five cents 1 a piece, and giving a wink or two to the spec tators, tossed them to the qunker and was about whipping his horse to be off. ‘ Good day, mister fanner?’— ‘ Slop, friend, thee must keep thy word with me.’— * Well, liavn’t. I ? — 1 Nay, 1 can't surely turn these pen knives to the same account as I could ray corn.'— In faith you can.’ ‘ How dost then mean, friend ?' —‘ Why look you here !’ said the ped lor—‘ what was you going to do with Ihe corn ?’ —‘ Why to grind it, tirco may he sure !’— ‘Well, so was I going lo grind the knives, thee may he sure — aim lhat turning them to the same account with the corn — good day mister Farmer.’ The pedler was off. ‘ The d i grind thee. Grindstone, though really thou art sharper than tiiy knives, —said the honest qnaker, ns he trudged on with his six pen knives and the rcsidutn of his corn to have them all ground together. nnWENTY DOLLARS REWARD.—Rnna- X way from the subscriber on tlio 27ih day of October, a ncaro nmn. »y tho name of ANTHONY, about 5 trot C or” inches high, one tooth out be fore. with a scar on the ankle, full eyes ami speaks quick when spoken to, ami of light compleciion ll is likely lie will make his way for .Savannah or 1 Charleston.
