Wo look upon the result of deliberations of this ho ly with the deepest in terest. Its proceedings will be watched-with great anxiety, and its measures if calculate*’*, to produce any substantial good, will be hailed by the great body of the people, with demonstra tions of joy. We venture^!io assertion, that the State has not. since t* adoption of the Constitution, resolved on the consummation of imy object, of such importance, either as it re spects her own prosperity, or the interests of her own citizens. The numerous representa tion, in our State Legislature, has hung upon the State, like an incubus, and now when she has made a concentrated effort to shako oiV this evil, we trust no one, by the narrowness of selfish views, or the ambition of party-aggran dizement, will thwart her endeavours, or para lyze her exertions. The elections were not made, with reterrorce to national or State politics. All parties met upon common p roud —determined tor once, to sacrifice party feel ings. and personal predilections, upon the altar of the public pood. \\ hen there is such a di versity of opinion, as to the extent add mode of the contemplated reduct ion of tin? members of the Legislature, it is unreasonable to expect, in the deliberations of the Convention, unanimity of feeling, and coincidence of views. But we do hopt.', for the honor and dignity of the body, and for the success of the great measure, upon which in some degree, depend the prosperity and rapid improvement of the State, that the bitterness of party-strife will be forgotten, and the struggle for sectional ascendancy, will not attempted. We have before expressed our onini fbat (tie safest and most judicious course for the Convention to pursue, is, to de termine simply on the extent of the reduction,’ without attempting an apportionment of the members, among the several counties of the State. Constitutions should always he plain and general—and deal as little in the nicety of detail , as is consistent with the interest of the people, or the rights of the State. If the counties are classified, or the members are ap portioned among'them, we may anticipate an angry and bittbr contention in the Conigv^— and a severe and dubious struggle fnmthe people, when they rotne to ratify the amend ments proposed. If then the Convention will simply ray. that the State shall have P.'J Sena tors, and Pdfi Representatives, and leave the perplexing question of an apportionment to the next Legisla are, t!ie people will undoubtedly rat if}’ the amendment, and a induction in our State-representation, will be certainly secured. It is true, in our next Legislature, there may be the satire power, and sec tional mtluence —but having deter mined in favor of a —the great hat tie will have been fought and the viuv.ry won. If, however, the Convention should attempt the settlement of this vexed question, we may ex pect then, the same party arrangements, the same sectional exertions, the same bitterness of contention.

This unfortunate Country is convulsed with excitement, and groaning under the iron rod of oppression. The course of the United King dom towards her, has been dictated by a spirit, that looks not oidy at her subjugation, but at the deprivation of every right sTie enjoys, and the prostration of every hope she indulges. For years, she has been nobly struggling against Legislative oppression, Ministerial influence, and clerical rapacity. When her suffering sons, crushed by tire strong hand of oppression, dayed to raise their voice in defence of their ■ violated rights, they were threatened with tile terrors of the Riot-aJts; when they resisted the brutal rapacity ofrhc Tithe-Proctor, they wen visited with the horrors of the Insurrec tionary acts; when they uttered their groans in the murmurs of complaint, and petitioned for a rehess of grievances, in the language of -studied truth, they were harrassed by the in humanity ot an unfeeling band of police, ami the tyr i,n v of an irresponsible viceroy—and now &. high-han ded re. tin.- r - ry - • and rson. and fatten on their destihn^Pß^^ In our next, we will endeavour to publish the eloquent Speech of O’Connell on the Co ercion Bill of Earl Greay.

Auraria.—The village of Auraria is situa ted on the ridge dividing the waters of the Chestatee and Etoah rivers, on lot number 664 in tin? Utli district Ist section, of original ly Cherokee, now Lumpkin county: and suppo sed to he immediately in the most valuable part of the Gold Region. Its locality justly entiles it to the name which it bears; beino one, as we conceive of melodious sound, of clas sic taste, and appropriate derivation ; and as we at all times take pleasure in awarding mer it to whom it is due. we give the name of the late Vice President J. C. Calhoun, as the aur tlior of this admirable selection, from the cat alogue of names, which he suggested for this place, when at his mines in this neighborhood last November. The first cabin was erected here about the first of June last, by William Dean Esq. who was shortly after followed by Nathaniel Nuc kolls, Esq. who opened a house of entertain ment for the accommodation of those disposed to make examination for gold in the surround hv country ;and the consequence was that his house was crowded with the most respectable & enterprising part of community from this and other States. The successful effort of the first adventurer being soon made known, its mag netic powers uppn.the wants ofthe poor, as well as the avaricious cravings of the rich, imme diately drew together a population composed of all classes and and conditions of the human family, from the most indigent beggar to the wealthy nabob. The Lot on which Auraria stands, having been drawn by orphans some time in January last, & they .having at the time no Guardian to act for them, the growth ofthe place was great ly retarded from that period until a few davs since. The Guardian of the Orphans has just left here, after making satisfactory arrange ments .with the citizens for the proient year, and the sta*e of improvement is now going on in a manner, we will venture to say, Unprece dented ;n any back country village in the sou thern States. There isnow on this 40 Acre Lot of Land ICO. funily dwellirg :13or 20 stores; 12 or 15 law oitk-es; and 4or 5 taverns, dec. The town population is estimated at 1000 and that ofthe county 10000, and constantly in creasing with a rapidity almost too incredible to relate. The Indian population is small : their right of occupancy to the soil, having in most Cates he vice of his country, delivered his letters of re call, and took leave of the President and Se cretary of State; and on Thursday, the 11th inst., Don Augustine Yturbide delivered to the Secretary of State his Credentials as suc cessor of Don J. M. Montoya, and was receiv ed, by this Government, as the Charge des Af faires of the United Mexican States. —ggg” ■. ‘."■"SJmu w FOR THE NEWS. Mr. Editor —Can you inform me, where the hand? belonging to the county are at work, and what they ??ve done ? The public roads, arc almost impassable, and are daily growing worse, and yet as tar as my information ex tends, not a hand is, or has been, at work on any great market road in the county. Why is ibis’ Where should the county hands now be ? In corners ot the county ] on some neigh bourhood road ] or on the public ones, and in the heart ol the county. The people bear the expense, and the people should be benelitted. The negroes are the county’s, and the whole county should have the benefit of their labour. Ihe citizens generally are more interested in the public and market roads, than in any oth er, and yet strange to tell, they are in the worst condition, aud the least worked upon.

Mr. Simons, it will bo recollected, was with us a little before he sailed, lie writes from Calcutta, December Ist, lb-32. After stating that, as I shall see in the Magazine or Index an account of his passage to Calcutta , he should say nothing a bout it in his letter, lie proceeds:— “ I saw the venerable Dr. Carey at Seram pore a fortnight ago, and dined with him. lie is now about 74 years old. I read one of John Davis’s (the creek Indian) letters to him, and lie was very much affected by it. The cause of Christ is making gradual progress among the numerous idolaters of India. You have no idea of their degradation and superstitution. It is one thing for a man to sit down and read a bout them, and quite another to witness them. lam sure that the friends at the South would do a great deal more in sending the Bible, Tracts, and Missionaries to the heathen ifthey could only see them. A gletleman from t’le in terior, witnessing the erection of an idol’s tem ple, writes to a friend the following.—“A beau tiful temple to Gun puttee—the stone of which it is built takes as fine a polish, as any marble can give-—when will temple building cease— it is retlieulous to pretend utter insensibility to the ‘degrading act of idolatry. We startle with shame at a human being bowing too low to one akin to him by flesh and blood; —but pass unheeding by the crowds who bend the knee before a mute and. monstrous image—in my JifiP'-U. J pity the .man who car. witness a worship like this, without one feel in or of pain, or one wish for its total cessation.”- I dont know that the writer makes any • pretentions to religion—he seems to write as a traveller. I wish those persons could see this who are so ready to say, without their knowing any thing about it—“Oh! the religion of the heathen does well enough, if they arc only sincere in . it.” lam sorry to toll you brother M. that - last night a letter canffe from Maulmein to Mr. Sutton, saying that Mr. Wade is so ill tiiat he and his wife must leave immediately for Ame rica. They are expected daily. Thus you see how necessary it is to be ready to supply the vacations which are constantly made, by sending labourers into the field. I hope you will soon be able to send us some from Georgia.” I most ardently hope if Mr. and Mrs. Wade should be spared to return to America.
