We are credibly informed (says
a late Savannah paper) that the ra
vages of caterpillars, among t the
cotton, is a subject of serious
alarrrSjto the planters. The earlv
appearance of these insects, their
rapid progress and increase from
3t. Man's along the cea board,
extending to inland plantations,
and up the fresh water rivt rS, ren
der the calculation of a cotton crop
truly uncertain and precarious.
The appearance of caterpillars,
heretofore, has been principally on
( the exposed parts ofthe sea-islands,
but from the present scourge, w$
find no situation exempt from tHese
destructive insects.
.Accounts from St. Helena state,
that the Caterpillars have made their
appearance among the Cotton in

The repeal of tl?e jawfpreiung

groes (saystheGliarlestorr:. Cour
rit-r) is noT talked of not uponsur
mise, but something approaching
to certainty. The mi&chiefs which
that ill-advised measure has already
done to the commercial part of the
cominbaity is incalculable, and is
so far from being balanced by any
advantage on the part of the agri
cultural, that its repeal cannot be
too soon. In fact, the benefit
tbe planter may be supposed
toderive from the increased quan
tity of produce, will be greatly di
minished by the reduction irthe
price, which must necessarily fol
low a glut at market, and will not
in all probability balance the inter

maintenance artd cloathmg of the

hand, it has so entirely absorbed
we should rather say ingulphed, the
cash of the country that is to say
taken it out of its fair course of ci -culation,
the sinews' of 'commerce
are palsied, and if the cause were
to continue, must perish. The
planter buys slaves with the cash
which would otherwise go to the
merchant for his supply ot Europe
an, Indian, and other foreign pro
ductions ; the merchant, of course,
is disabled from making punctual
payments ; paper currency stagnates
for want of money to keep the head
of the fountain running ; and thus
credit, the life and .out of commer
cial prosperity, is destroyed. From
this injury to particulars, the gener
al credit and reputation o the whole
country is so much suspended, that
nothing but time and great pros
perity can restore it again to its
place or put it back into its custo
mary course. These evils begin
to be seen, and being backed by
many other circumstances and
opinions derived from other states,
will it is said, certainly lead to the
desired repeal as soon as the legisla
ture of that state shall meet.
Extract of a letter from a gentle
man at W) the C. H. (Virginia) to
his friend in Frederick-Town,
fMd.) dated July 22, 1804.
w We have for 12 tlavs been
clouded with a dark .smoke, and
ihis day I was informed by a gen
tleman from Kentuckv that the
Clinch mountainhad sunk for many
miles to the depth of fifty feet; af
ter which clouds of smoke issued
therefrom, so that the inhabitants
at the distance of 20 miles from the
alace wt re notable to discover an
object at 20 feet distance. This, I
suppose, was occasioned by tne
turning of the stone coal which is '
n the mountain.1'
With great regret we have to
;tate (sa s a Charleston paper of
ugust 21) that one of the most
Ntrocious and premeditated mur
ders was committed in this city
yesterday aftejnoon, on the body
of Mr. James Shaw, merchant, by
a young man named Kii hard Den
nis, jun. that perhaps has ever
oeen laid betore the public. I he
circumstances as far as we coaid
collect them last evening are as fol
low : -Richard Dermis, sen. keeps
the 'Carolina7 Coffee-House in
rradd street, in this city ; on
JThursday last IIr. Shaw was there,
when Dennis made a demand on
him for a . small reckoni no: which
he said he ow d him ; Mr. Shaw
told him that he had paid it to the
barkeeper that he had discharged ;
xxx altercation immediately took
place, some blows passed, and
Dennis was worsted j this iriitated
Dennis's son toaucha heighllj;; that j
ne gave abusive language to Mr.
Shaw, for which he got kicked,
lie then challenged Mr. S. who, it
is suid, had determined to take no
further notice of the affair. Early
yesterday morning, printed papers'
signed Richard Dennis, jun. which
stated that Mr. Shaw was a pol
troon and a coward, were posted
up at different corners of the street,
which MrShaw pulled down. Be
tweettwo and three Mr, Shaw di
ned at an acquaintance's house ; he
left the table a little before 4 o'clock,
and passed town Trad street to go
to his business at his couuting
nquse ; as he turned out of Trad
street into Bedons Alley, of wliich
the Coffee-House forms a corner,
it is said he wa called to through
the window ; ase turned his face
to the window, a pi t 1 was fired,

At a meeting convened at Wood
bury, in Mar land on the 4th of
August, the following spirited re
solution was entered into :
44 Resolved unanimously, That
this meeting highly disapprove the
practice, so mimical to republican
principles, of individuals announc
ing themselves in the public prints
as candidates for offices in the gift
of the people, and pledge them
selves to, oppose, by all proper
means in their power,4" the election
of any person persisting in such in
delicate practices.'
What will the people of Mary
land say, on being told that it is a
practice in many pares of this State,
not only for Candidates to " an
nounce them!elves for office," but
to ride about for two or three
months previous to an election, to
every militia muster and other pub
lic meeting, in a county, for the
purpose of making themselves
agreeab le to te People.
The following is an extract from
a law, enacted by the Legislature
ofthe stat of New-York, at its
last session :
"That in aH cases of persons
meeting each other on any turn
pike road, or public highway, in
this state travelling with carnages,
sleighs, waggons or carts, the per
sons meeting shall seasonably turn,
drive and convey their carriage
sleigh, 'waggon or cart tOthe right
fo the centre of the road, so as to
enable each other's carriage,
sleigh, waggon or cart to pass each
other without interference , under
(the penalty of five dollars for every
neglect or offence, to be recovered
by the party aggrieved,in an action
of debt, in any court having cogni
zance thereof, with costs of suit.'1
9th sect, act for appointing turnpike
commissioners, and for other pur
poses. It is reported that Col. Smith,
the President of the New-York
state Society of Cincinnati, has re
ceived an answer to a letter ad
dressed by said Society to Gen.
Charles Cotes worth Pinckney, the
Vice-President General of the So
ciety. Mr. Pinckney, it is said,
condemns in the strongest manner
the practice of duelling, and pro
poses that the society at a general
meeting, or at their different state
meetings, should enter into a reso
lution neither to give nor to accept
a ch alknge. S uc h a 1 e tte r co m i n g
from a gentleman ot high charac
ter, and of great bravery, is very
important. The letter ought not
to be withheld from the public.
We learn that Mr. Cooper and
Mr. Priestley, of Northumberland
in Pennsylvania, are engaged in
writing the biography of Dr.Prtest
ley . Among the papers left by the
doctor is an account of his own life
ior a number of years, as well as
we recollect, about . seventeen.
This is likely to be a precious lite
rary relic. From the unaffected
modestv which invariably charac
terised the doctor, and from the
ingenuousness of his mind, and his
ardent love pf-Jtruth, we may ex
pect a faithfulrecordof his thoughts.
Among the most agreeable legacies
of this nature left by-eminent lite
rary characters, our readers will
recollect the interesting narratives
of Franklin, Hume and; Gibbon.
The plain' aiid imadored state-,
ments they have madej have given
us a more correct insight into their
characters, and haVe more success
fully contributed to shield their
fame from unjust asnersion, than
A ' j ' "itt
their admirers. We: may be per -
mitted to indulge the hope, thatthe
artless narrative of a Priestley,
who united to the consciousness
of talent felt by a great mind, the
simplicity inspired by true genius,
will form the best monument to the
purity of his motives, and to the
beneficence tof a spirit' 'actively oc
cupied through .a long life in the
setvicf hi? feilow-xaen.
