the advantage of the lattei! This con
tains senliuients worthy of a sta'es

to be found the ti uc Secret of a happy and
successful political lile. To take, a put
conscientiously and 10 act it with, spiril
and firmness, yet wilh magnanimity, for
bearance, and philosophy", is indeed a
high art, hut one widen cm only he practi
sed hy an elevated and generous nature.
Perhaps a more remarkable illustration of
it was never exhibi:ed than by the present
Chief Magistrate of the country". From
early life lie has mingled actively in the
most exciting political contests, yet with
out embittering his heart, or exasperating
his temper. lie has been exposed 10 ma
ny trials, and h s encountered every varie
ty of obstacle; yet without ever yielding an
inch of ground, or conceding an essential
point, he has managed lo triumph without
oppression, and to overcome without harsh
ness or revenge: Fortunate in almost eve
ry thing which lie has undertaken, he was
never made arrogant hy success; a final
winner in almost every emitest, ne never
put his foot upon the neck of a prostrate
foe. The amenity of his temper, the grace
of his deportment, the courtesy of his
manners, evinced alike to all, have
become as proverbial as the distinctness
of his Opinions and the tenacity with
which he adheres to them, are now
universally acknowledged. These are
ihe qualities which win esteem and
confidence in the long run, with the great
mass of the people, whose calm sense and
honest feelings are not vitiated by the
passions of heated partisans. They are qual
ilies which gain upon friends, and extort
even the reluctant approbation of ene
mies. We now proceed to the reverse of the
picture.
We see a man whom age can-
not calm, nor experience moderate. We
see him, bending under the weightof years,
yet giving vent to passions which would

(lJAs the time draws near for the
completion of the Wilmington and Hali
fax Kail Road, when any number of pas
sciigcis may be daily carried over it,
conversation naturally turns upon its pros
pects,and the means of increasing its travel.
Among other plans, which in operation
would augment the business of the Road,
and of course increase its profits; a line of
steam boats, cither s;.nii, or tri-weekly, te
run between Wilmington and Savan
nah has been spoken of. There is lit lie
doubt, that when the Rail Roads running
out from Savannah towards Macon and
Columbus are finished, that a large stream
of travel will b j diverted from the present
channel through Augusta, and pass through
the former city. In this almost certain
event, it would be very necessary to have a
line of boats to bring passengers to this
point, without any intermediate detention.
j The establishment of such a line upon ihe
! imm-'di ite completion of our Rail Roid,
: might Le a little premature, hut we should
j think it a scheme worthy of serious atten
tion. 'Fiie running of boats for passengers
j outside of ihe Capes, may now be con
sidered ns at an cud. I? y the time the sou
; thorn stream of travel sels strongly in, the
staging (that hug-bear herciofore) will be so

their party dead on the field, and among

the principal owners of that lucrative con

uii Thursday he sot diunk. and on Friday
he was committed to the" common jail of
Lowndes county for his bride's debts. On
Saturday hN child died; on Sunday il was

parentage hitherto unknown, was acknow

The Mammoth Lottery. When re
quested by Messrs. Svlvesier & Co., cf
loli Broadway, Now York, to publish their
scheme of the Real E.-uitc Lottery, we
complied at once having before had suffi
cient transactions with them to convince
us that they werchonourable business men.
Some lime afterwards we received one of
our exchange papers from the South, con
taining an article of nearly a column; heid
cd "Hubble Extraordinary abusive of
those concerned in the lottery; and de
nouncing the Scheme as an unexampled
attempt 'lb deceive and rob the publick."
To test the truth of this charge, we imme
diately sent our bill for ihe advertisement
to Messrs; Sylvester &. Co.j and though
demanded in advance, they paid il without
hesitation. We should like to be "de
ceived and robbed" by all our customers
in the sariie agreeable manner, and we feel
bound to counteract, as f.r as we can, the
false charges and insinuations made in the
case. If, as the southern paper asserted,
the Managers knew that the Lottery would
never be drawn; we think they would be
great simpletons to pay so freely far ad
vertising, from which they could expect
no beue.it. Newborn Spec.

have sickly children, of any age, try this
plan; ii it does no good, it v. ill produce no

Florida: The accounts received frorri
ecuiion, although the sixty days have expi
red. The Indians are still engaged in their
bloody work: ami the people df Florida
are now calling tipon the Government for
other and mere t ti" ctual measures for tha
security of their lives and property. Gov
ernor Call has sent on a commission to con-,
fer with the Secretary of War, consisting of
Messrs. Downing, Wm. Brockenbrough,
Gen. Brown of Tallahassee, &c. We had a
ong conversation with Gen. Brown on
Saturday and we are satisfied, that th.e
Indians are in greater force; supplied with
belter means, and more determined on hos
tilities, than is generally supposed. It
will become necessary to strike at them
again, and drive them oil. The only ques
iion is, what is the best species of force for
ibis purpose? It seems lo hz the impres
sion in Florida, that another species of
force is necessary, besides the Regular
Troops, or Volunteer Militia, who have
not been acquainted with the modes of In
dian warfare. Either U. S. mounted vol
unteers, from parts of the country, which
is familiar with the habits and mode of
fighting of the Indian and who can ope
rate without being controlled by the U. S.
officers, and who can with proper guldeS
dash into the woods and hammocks, &C
or, enterprizing persons, who will be, al
lowed to settle on portions of the public
lands, upon condition of fighting the Indi
ans and protecting the country, &c. or,
ooi n these, and similar species of forco
combined, are considered the best troops
lor me purpose. At all events Floridd
j requires arms, ammunition and provisions
for her own volunteers for the nrespht:
A small and hold hand of about 40 melt
have Consented to act, under a leader, to
hoVer over the hiding places, and dash
among the enemy. They are to bealldwi
ed so much fur ihe scalp of each Indian
warrior, or a prisoner, and the money has
been raised by private subscription among
the people. Tin's hand is about proceed
ing to operations. We understand, tile
Commissioners will proceed to New York
to confer immediately with the Secretary
at War. Hich. Enq.
Improveinehts in CjttMi Machinery.
Since ihe first introduction of Cotton Mach
inery into this country, many very import
taut improvements have been made upofi
ii,aud a great proportion of those adopted
h.re by American maclrrists;
To compare ihe present spinning framed
mules, speeders, pickers, looms, &c:
with the comparatively clumsy frames
first put in operation, and the common hand
loom, and the old method of preparing the
raw material, piesents ns wilh an astonish
ing contrast & exhibits honorable testirridhy
to the rapid development of American geni
us, indeed, to such a high degree of per
fection has the finish and construction of
machinery for the manufacture of cciton
f.brics been carried iu this country, that
but for the higher price of labor, bur man
ufactures could, in a short time, 'compete
uiililhoseoi Europe m the manufacture
ol the finest fabrics. The most recent wo
know of in the spinnir g department, is
"Mason's Cylindrical Flyer " a spindle
lhat operates with as little cxpbnseof power
as any other; with gteit economy in point
of manual labor, and which may Le operat
ed with double ti c speed of a iy other
now in use, being simple in its construction?
(asily kept in repair, and very durable.
Several thousands of these spindles have
been in operation for five or six montnsin
the Coddingfon mill at Newport, R.L, and
are found to operate to perfect satisfaction
They have been spinning yarn of the fine
ness of No. 45, and the work they tarn off
is of the best description. The thread is
even, and the cloth probably equal Jo any
of that fineness manufac tured in this coun-
ry. The inventor of the Cylindrical
Flyer is a practical manufacturer of long
experience; a good mechanic and a worthy
man. Hisinvention is believed to be highly
important to the American manufacturing
interest. -N. Y. Star.
