w&mrmumm* THURSDAY, AUGUST 6, 1840. Against ” an ultimate Abolitionist”—against an advocate for the right of free negroes to vole—sigainst a corrupt ami corrupting Ad ministration ; and for the Constitution— for Reform —and for an honest and eco nomical ADMINISTRATION OF THE GOVERN MENT. NOTICE. THE DELEGATES TO THE MACON ■'CONVENTION ARE REQUESTED TO (MEET IN WASHINGTON, ON MON DAY MORNING NEXT, AT AS EARLY AN HOUR AS PRACTICABLE, TO TAKE UP THE LINE OF MARCH. OLD WILKES. To the Patrons of the News For the purpose of removing erioneous ■’impressions, which have been indus triously circulated, we are again com pelled to state positively, to our friends, that we have no idea of removing from this place; and as our engagement to print the “ Christian Index” will cease with the year, we shall, consequently, have more time to devote to “THE NEWS” —and we shall spare no pains nor expense in its Editorial or Mechanical appearance. At all events, we are “ain enough to believe, that “ THE NEWS” will bare a compa rison with our cotemporary. Therefore, we would fain hope, and confidently ex ipect, a continuation of patronage hereto fore received. We have been induced to make the above statement, from the fact of seeing a Prospectus for anew State Rights paper, to be issued in this place, entitled “ THE PLANTERS’ GAZETTE”—D. G. Cot ding, Editor. Now, whether its Editor or Proprietors, (for we learn it is a joint-stock •concern,) expect to realize a fortune by the enterprize, or whether they intend to root us out, we are unable, to say. But ■one thing we do say, (speaking from past -experience,) that all the patronage of the county, if centered in one paper, would barely defray the expenses of its publica tion. However, time and experience will test what we have said ; and in the course of -one year at farthest, we calculate to wit ness their general ruin and downfall— “ Amidst the wreck of matter, and the •crush of” newspapers. The Macon Convention. We again take occasion, (says the Ma con Messenger, of the 30th ult.,) to say to our friends abroad, we have ample room for the accommodation of all who are dis posed to attend our Convention. The house of every Harrison man in the city ■will have the string of the latch of the door on the outside, and a hearty welcome .to greet all comers. Ample provisions are also made for .-stabling horses. Les no one be detained ifrom coming, from any apprehension of the vwant.of accommodation. “ The cry is, still they come !” lEvery paper briHgs us the gratifying in 'telligence of delegates appointed to the Macon Convention. They count by hun dreds, and our friends must make sacrifi ces of private convenience, if necessary, .and give us their attendance. When once (here, will take good care of ithem. ‘We will cater.fqr them a “ Feast of reason and,Sow of soul,” ifrom which not one will depart.dissatisfied. We are requested to say., that ample ar rangements will be made by the Gommil itee for the accommodation of,L*DiEs,.ivho ,pre, earnestly invited to attend. We notice the following appointments.of .delegates, but, no doubt, have overlooked jpany others: Delegates to the Convention —. From .Baldwin Coypty, 125 ; Newton, 150, the mechanics of ditto, 25 ; Wilkinson, 125,- 1 Twiggs, 100 ; Morga.;, 135 ; Henry, 134; Sumter, 110; Hall, 150; Wask wgion, 150 ; Stewart, 200; Crawford, 153; Pulaski, 72; Baker, 10; Burke, 103; Walton, 88; Pike, 80; Greene, 120; Putnam, 118; Hancock, 100; Jefferson, 100 ; Houston, all the Harrison voters in the county ; Butts, every Harrison voter in the county ; Monroe, all the Harrison yoters in the county; Chatham, 100; Talbot, 200; Richmond, 120 ; Jones, 300; Elbert, 144 ; and Russell county, Alabama, 100. We refer our readers to a “ Synop sis of the Speech of Julius C. Alford,” of State, “ against the Sub-Treasury ißill, delivered in the House of Representa tives ip Juno last.” The “ Georgia Jour nal,” commenting on Mr. Alford’s speech, very justly says : “ Our readers will, no doubt, agree with ,us, that Mr. Alford has placed the correct construction upon what our opponents, and Messrs. Cooper, Colquitt and Black, are pleased Jo term, the proscription by the State Rights Party, of the three latter named gentlemen. Labored efforts have been made, to induce the belief that these gentlemen have been proscribed on ac count of their support ol the Sub-Treasury, and opposition to the establishment of a National Bank ; but this is not so. These gentlemen could have supported as a can didate for the Presidency! a Sub-Treasury man, in the person of George M. Troup ; and had they displayed the leust willing ness to have occupied such a position, few, if tiny of the party, would have abandoned them at the polls. But contrary to the well known opposition of ninety-nine out of every hundred of the party, they have thought proper to act for themselves, and, of course, must submit to the consequen ces. It was with them, nobody but,Martin Van Buren. When asked, if they would support Troup, if nominated, the reply was, provided it does not defeat the elec tion of Van Buren, they would do so ; hut to run Troup, to defeat Van Buren and they were Van Buren men. Our readers, from the lights before them, know this to be the case. “ We are very much pleased that Mr. Alford has let the peopleof Georgia under stand the intimacy that exists between the old, and the young Democrats. Old “ Slippery Elm” will no doubt whisper consolation, and instruction too, into the ears of the “baby democrats,” whenever he gets the chance, and as long as they will let him. We remember, a few years ago, when words ofcounsel from the same source would.have been treated with con tempt by those who may be now giving heed to the admonitions of this “accom plished statesman.” And well 100 do we remember, how the halls of our Legisla ture, echoed back the denunciations neap ed upon the nullifiers, by one Wilson Lumpkin, then Governor of Georgia.— Who was it, in the Legislature, that day after day, almost alone, sustained theNul liliers against the broad and sweeping charge that they were traitors to their country? And who was it that made the charge? Let the Journal of the House of Representatives answer these questions. We opine, when appealed to, it will a tale enfold that will account for any thing else but for this unnatural intimacy.” {t/ 5 - In publishing the list of Delegates to the Macon Convention, from tliiscounty, in our lust, Captain Richard H. Stokes’ name was omitted. (Kr Congress adjourned on the 21st of July. Mr. Senator Tappan, a strong Ad ministration man, in a late speech in the United States Senate, urging the reduction of wages, said: “ The price of labor is entirely too high. The laborer in this country can afford to work for ELEVEN PENCE A DAY, and the hard-money system will bring do,on wages to that sum. Wheat will also come down to sixteen cents a bushel, and every thing else in proportion. This is the best tariff you can have, and the only one that can enable the manufac turers to compete with England. The Sub-Treasurv will effect both objects—it will PUT DOWN THE BANKS, AND BRING WAGESAND EVERY THING ELSE DOWN!” FOR THE NEWS. The iTlany-lle;<k‘d Wheal. The w,any-headed wheat is an indigen ous plant of Calefornia; six heads of which was procured by Major Spering, from a man in the Osage nation of Indians, who kd been trading in the Pacific Ocean. The six heads produced six hun dred grains; which were planted by Mr. Alpheus Baker, of Abbeville District, S. C., the production f which was leu thousand heads. The groimi on which the wheat grew was measured by an aocurate surveyor— the heads counted—and one head shekled out, and the grain weighed; a calculation was then made, the .result of which was, that the wheat produced at the rate of two hundred and thirty bushels lo the acre. It was planted about the .last of January, and cut on the 20th of June. The .land on which it grew., is .poor and sandy, and was unassisted by manure. FOR THU NEWS. Kocky Creek Academy. As the Examining Committee of Rocky Creek Academy, we take pleasure in slat hag to the public, our en'.ire satisfaction with regard to the manner in which the students acquitted themselves at their re cent examination. The piomptitude and correctness of their answers, in that de partment of science which draws upon the memory, the ease and facility with which they solved arithmetical questions, and such others as bring directly into exercise the reasoning faculties, we must in justice say, did themselves much honor, and re flected on their teacher, Mr- Foot, no little credit; and will doubtless prove a sourceof heartfelt pleasure to their worthy and pub lic-spirjlecj parents. In short, the best comment, W e believe, that can be made on the industry apfl perseverance used by the students, in the qttqipfnept of knowledge, and likewise on the skill and well-directed energies of the teacher in communicating it, was the exercises of the day, After the close of the examination, the audience was addressed by Mr. Gartrell, in a lengthy and appropriate speech, setting forth the advantages of education, and its claims on American citizens. We regret that we have not his remarks for publica tion. In conclusion, we feel no hesitation in saying, that this institution, conducted as it is, by vigorous, high minded, and liberal hearted patrons, bids fair to rival any of a similar character, and prove an ornament to the neighborhood in which it is located. We acknowledge our thanks to the ma trons ol the vicinity, for the comfort and good cheer with which we wore greeted. EX AM IN ING CO M MITTEE. FOR THE NEWS. To the l.il i tor oft lie Indepen dent Press. Mr. Fouclie :—ln your paper of the 29th ult., you ask for proof of Mr. Van Buren’s being in favor of the Proclamation and Force Bill. 1 am unaccustomed to newspaper controversy, and before I enter one with you, I should like to be certain that we differed in opinion ; and therefore, ask you two plain questions: “ Do you deny Mr. Van Buren’s being in favor of both the Proclamation and Force Bill ?” “ If he was net, which one was he op posed to ?” To have no mistake hereafter, please give a categorical answer to the firs! question. CANDOUR. Washington, July 30, 1840. FOR THE NEWS. Mr. Editor :—Can you inform the peo ple of this county, whose duty it is to sum mons Jurors, and the reason why the Pe tit Jury lor the July Court, which has just past, was not summoned? Or, has the Sheriff'or his deputy, a right to make the selection of the Jurors, that are to try the interest ana rights of the people, thereby placing his immediate friends upon the Jury ? Could not the Sheriff or his deputy, h_v such a course, prejudice the interest arid rights of every individual that might have a suit in Court ? I ask for informa tion, for it seems to me, that if the Sheriff or his deputy, has this right, that there is no use in giving his Honor the Judge the trouble to draw Jurors; or for his Honor to order them summoned. For surely, no Sheriff would neglect to comply with any order from the-Courl, that the law made it his duty to comply with. CASTIGATOR. Washington, Aug. 4,1840. [We presume the Judge will see justice done.— Ed. News.] FOR THE NEWS. Friend Kappel :—ln the two preced ing numbers of the News, 1 have seen the announcement of Doctor Price for the Le | gislature. lama friend of the Doctor’s, and regrot exceedingly that the News, and its correspondents, should have thought it expedient to treat his pretensions in the way they have. I regard the attacks as ill-timed, and ungenerous. What, sir, has the Doctor done, but exercised a right, sa cred to .eatery freeman—that of offering his services to bis fellow-citieens. Surely, gentlemen, you do not dispute his right to do so! But my object .is not to quarrel with friends, but to, hold out a compromise, which, I trust, will be acceptable to you, to your correspondents, and to the Anti- Van Buren .party of “ <Jld Wilkes.” Lot the old ticket—vie., Dr. William Qt- Anderson, Robert A. Toombs, Esq., and Dr. Wingfield—be run again, and let the vacancy, occasioned by the death of the patriotic ad lamented Killgore, be filled by the party in convention. I have not seen Or. Price upon the subject, but feel warranted, from his known patriotism, ‘to believe he would fully accord in the no mination, should it fall upon another. This proposition seems reasonable; and I trust it will meet with no opposition. The times call loudly for union of feeling, and con cert of action, on the part of the Anti-Van Buren party of Georgia. Then, let us for get all minor prejudices ; and unite, as a band of brothers, upon whomsoever shall be presented to us, and the ascendancy of the party is no longer a question of doubt. A VOTER. Mallorysville, July 30, 1840. MR. COLQUITT’S CONSISTENCY. When Mr. Colquitt, of Georgia, a short lime ago, was for Judge White, he told his constituents that nearly all the abolition ists were for Mr. Van Buren. Now, how ever, when Mr. Colquitt is for Mr. Van Buren, he informs his constituents that nearly all the abolitionists are for General Harrison! How can contempt travel down to such a fellow’s level I — Louisville Journal. A correspondent informs us, that over 2,000 plates, and 350 dozen knives and forks were purchased in this city, on Wed nesday, being part of the preparations making for the Harrison festival, to be given at Macon, on the 13th of August next .—Charleston Courier.

The Gigantic Scheme of the East India Comfany—The Cultivation of Cotton in India under the Superin tendence of Americans. —It will be re membered that we were the first journal to give notice of the movements of the East India Company, by means of their agent, Capt- Bayles, in the Southern states, in re lation to Cotton planting. Several jour- ‘■ nals attempted to throw discredit on our statements at the time, and to doubt the de signs and magnitude of tlm intentions oi l that company as we pointed them out. We presume that all doubt on the subject will cease when the following important para graph from the “Manchester Guardian” is attentively read : CULTIVATION OF COTTON IN THE EAST INDIES. We are glad to find, that the East India Company are prosecuting the design of improving the cultivation of Cotton in their territories, with a vigour commensurate with the importance of the object which they have in view. We mentioned a few days ago, the arrival of several individuals from the United States, with saw-gins and other machinery for cleansing of Cotton ; and we now copy the following paragraph on the subject from the Atlas : “Captain Bayles,- of the 52d Madras, N. 1., whom the Hon. E. I. C. deputed to America, for the purpose of making inquiries regarding the system adopted in that country in the culture of Cotton, has returned to London, having accomplished the object of his mis sion. The American plan, in its elaborate detail, is infinitely superior to the Indian (comparatively) primitive one: and very extensive advantage is accordingly antici pated by its introduction into India. In the event of war with America, we shall thus, in due time be independent of that country for the supply of a staple commodity of very extensive utility, and productive of inconsiderable profit. Great credit is due to the indefatigable officer, through whose unwearied zeal and acute observation this national benefit is about to accrue. Inde pendent of the efficient manner in which he-has compassed the immediate objects of his embassy, he has, in the course of his travels in America, collected at considera ble personal risk from the inclemencies of a remarkably unhealthy climate, and a so journ in the countries where the protection of the law is, as it were, but the nominuis umbra, a mass of valuable information connected with the minuticu of Cotton cul tivation, which must eventually prove of vast value and importance to the thorough organization of the system about to be dif fused throughout our eastern possessions. The detailed exposition of the plan about to be pursued by Capt. Bayles would oc cupy too much of our space: suffice it to say, that experienced American planters have been engaged by him to proceed to India to originate it, and to instruct the natives ; and that no expense has been spared by the Hon. the East India Compa ny, in the purchase of machinery, &c. to realize the grand object of this novel and interesting enterprise.” We understand that Capt. Bayles is now in this town, col lecting information connected with the ob ject of his mission, , and that he feels the utmost confidence in its speedy and com plete success—a confidence in which we fully participate. Here, then, we have all that we fully confirmed, by this very best authority, and the whole plan exposed, in England, now that concealment is no longer necessary. The length of the interesting letter from one of our English correspondents, pre vents a longer comment on the subject to day, but we shall return toil. Connected with the great Anti-Slavery agitation in London, also set on foot by the East India Company, it rises into immense impor tance; and we call on every American to ponder well on this matter. We find that the agent, Capt. Bayles, was in Liverpool when the Brittania left, with the patentee of the improved cotton gin ; they were to gether at Fawcett’s large foundry, super intending the manufacture of a quantity of machinery,J^r'^Treparing the cotton for market,,an‘d impnfttiwt ar rangements for ortfrving out the!Wi|(ia > i) of raising cottdTi in India on the most ex tensive scale imaginable TV. Y. Herald. renunciations>\_ The last Rochester Democrat I'onffilte a list of 560 persons who have |al3( ly renounced Van Burenisrn. A gen tleman now in this city, a resident of Berks county, Pa., informs us that in his own vicinity he can enumerate three hundred men who have heretofore voted the Van Buren ticket, but who will now vote for Harrison. As old Ritchie would say,~ “now by St. Paul, the work goes bravely on!”— Troy (N. Y. ) Whig, Another change. —ln the National In telligencer of the 28th ultimo, we find the address of Dr. E. S. Davis, to the voters of the 13th Congressional district of Ten nessee, renouncing Van Burenisrn. Dr. Davis was formerly a citizen of South Carolina, a zealous member of the Union party, and the warm personal friend of General Jackson. And having been sent from Tennessee as a Delegate to the Van Buren Convention at Baltimore in May last, in which capacity he served, he has now, from a sense of patriotic duty, hoisted the Harrison banner, and submitted his reasons for so doing to those he represent ed in that, convention.— Aug. Sentinel. From the Southern Recorder. Our accounts from every section of the bate are ol the most cheering character; and all doubts in regard to the result of the Presidential election in Georgia, are dissipated. Gen Harrison and John Ty ler must receive the Electoral vote of the State, or there is no laith to bo put in evi dence! Even in Muscogee county, the chief point ol disaffection towards the Harrison nomination, we are assured that our cause will gain, instead of suffering loss. Among other auspicious signs, we observe in the last Columbus Enquirer, an able and el aborate address of the Sheriff of that coun ty, Col. Bonner, to his friends of the Union Party, with which he has always acted, setting forth his reasons lor his abandon ment ol Martin Van Buren, and his sup port of Gen. Harrison. It is an address, by the way, which will satisfy every can did and unprejudiced reader, that Col. Bon ner is right ; and we trust its effect may he as it ought, to bring many, many more to do right too. We congratulate our friends throughout the State, on t;ur most cheering prospects. Contrasts. —President. V an Buren, when he made his tour last year, appeared and harangued every where as a partizan chief. Richard M. Johnson, at whom the more elegant ol the Van Buren men torn up their noses, as not genteel enough lor their qual ity—though in a less exalted station—de clined throughout his late visit, to act, or talk, or lie received, as a partizan. lie considered hirnscll a servant of the nation, and he was welcomed accordingly without distinction of party. Andrew Jackson, ex-President, and therefore ol the generation no longer on the stage, violates the decencies of his past station, and the fitness of that retirement, which, to be grateful and becoming should be complete—by stepping fiercely forth info the arena of party, mid unjustly de nouncing an old and meritorious soldier, for no other reason than that the people have called upon him as the man that might save the country. This old soldier, Win. 11. Han isofi—in the letter to the committee of the dinner in Cincinnati to Solomon Van Rensselaer— having a natural occasion to allude to Gen. Jackson, speaks of him as “ a President who had himself jeopardized his life, and shed his blood, in achieving the indepen dence of his country, and who knew how to appreciate a. hero’s service, and reward a soldier’s toil.” If there be conscious shame, and manly pride, in the bosom of Gen. Jackson, the contrast thus presented, will tinge his cheek with blushes. At any rate, the contrast here brought to notice, will not escape the observation and comments of the people.— N. Y. American. Negro Testimony. —Prentice says, the exposition of the infamous conduct of the negro-suffrage candidate, in allowing offi cers of the navy to be condemned upon the testimony of negro slaves, is making the Loco P’oco editors writhe and dart out their tongues like crushed vipers. An exchange savs —“ All the United States’ government owes William M. Price, is a rope! Perhaps it is. — N. Y.

Address, (post paid,) G. A. 8., War. renton, Ga. 40 PRESENTMENTS OF THE <RA*I> JI RY. WILKES SUPERIOR COURT, i July Term, 1840 l ’ | VHE GRAND JURY, empannelled -L and sworn the present Term of the S I P E RIOR C O U R T of WILKES COUNTY, make the following Present ments : In the discharge of the duties devolving upon us asGrnnd Jurors, we have,through our several Committees, examined the re cords of the Superior atid Inferior Courts, ami find them in a condition highly credit able to those officers. In regard to the County Funds, we find in the hands ol Roy land Beasley, the pre sent Clerk of the Interior Court, Eight Hundred and Forty-seven Dollars and Eighty Cents; which amount, we believe, It examination, to include the whole amount of County Funds up to this date. We have also examined a settlement, made by order of the Inferior Court with (he former Clerk, which was noticed bv the last Grand Jury, which settlement we find to be correct, and the balance due, paid in to the hands of the present Clerk. They have also examined a settlement, made by the Clerk of the Inferior Court with the Tax Collector for the Year, Eighteen Hundred and Thirty-eight, and find the amount of Taxes due for that V ear, paid into the hands of the Clerk. V e have also examined into the state of the County Jail, and find it kept in good order and in good repair, with the excep tion of some of the grates in the windows ol the dungeon, which we recommend to the Inferior Corn: to have repaired as early as practicable. We have examined a number of execu tions issued by the Tax Collector, and placed in the hands of the several officers, who have returned the same, either as in solvent or not to be found ; many not be ing liable, from having removed before the ‘fax was assessed ; and some that have produced receipts as having paid in coun ties to which they removed, previous to the assessment of the Tax—all or most of which appears to result from the failure of the officers required by law, to make re turns to the Receiver, of those persons lia ble to pay Taxes in the several districts; in the absence of such returns, it would ap pear, that tiie Receiver has, in part, made his return horn the books of former years. H e would, therefore, recommend, in fu ture, a strict and full compliance of the law by those officers, whose duty it is made to furnish the Receiver with the names of all persons in each district liable to pay Taxes. From the above examination, we allow the Tax Collector, in addition to the amount allowed by the last Grand Jury, the further sum of Twenty-five Dollars Forty-four and One-half Cents, ($25 44|), on the Insolvent List. We earnestly recommend to the > * of the Town of Washington, throu. he: Commissioners, to enforce the severuisaiu tary laws now in force, relative to slaves not being permitted to rent or occupy houses; or to hire their time; or being allowed to trade or transact business for themselves and receive the profits thereby accruing. We believe there are many now violating the several laws alluded to. We tender to his Honor Judge Andrews our thanks, for his usual prompt and effici ent administration of justice during the present ‘Perm; and also to Isaiah T. Irvin, Solicitor, lor his courtesy to this body. We request that these Presentments be published in both the papers in this place. LEWIS S. BROWN, Foreman. SIMEON HESTER, THOMAS SEMMES, S. G.
