SATURDAY MORNING. JULY 7, •827. j'jjf two Boards of the City C ouncii of Wash ington have passed and published a resolution respectfully inv iting the inhabitants of that part of Washington county east of Rock Creek, to meet at the City Hall on Monday next, for the purpose of adopting such measure* as may to ’them appear best calculated to carry into effect, the laws of the United States and Maryland, authorizing the construction of a Canal from ;he town of Cumberland to the tidj water of the Potomac. It will be remembered that at a similar meeting, held some weeks since in Georgetown, it was determined by that enter orixing and public spirited community to sub scribe $250,000 to the contemplated work, and Washington and Alexandria were invited to follow the example. It is the policy of Wash mgton to do so; but it will requite all the re sources of Alexandria to secure, by a lateral Canal, a fair participation in the benefits ol the main one. * The Virginia Free Fress states, that defini tive arrangements have beer, made for comple ting the Harpers Ferry Bridge during the pre sent season. The completion of such a highly important wotk will be hailed by the public with great satisfaction. The Bank of the United Slates has just de clared a dividend of three per cent for the last six months; and it is said that the surplus, judi ciously left, is such as to inspire great confi dence irf the institution. The Ne.v York Mercantile Advertiser re marks, that “ the delay of the meeting of the Congress of Tacubuya, is accounted fur from natural causes. We have it from the best au ihoiiiy, that the reports of Mexico being op posed to the appointment of representatives to this Congress, or of being unfriendly to the con templated conferences, is incorrect. 1 he truth is, the Ministers of Central America, Peru and Colombia, returned to their respective countries with certain Treaties agreed upon at Panama, to obtain the ratification u! the same bv their governments. These treaties were said to be altogether of a local character, containing ho objectionable stipulations ; but the agitated State in which those three countries have been placed since the period of the Panama AJon r ress, has to this time prevented them from be ing considered and ratified. Until this is done, it is believed the session of the Congress will not be resumed.” The “Alexandria Artillery Company,” Captain Orlando Morse, united in the celebra tion of the fifty-first anniversary of the day which “tried men’s souls”—the undying 4lh of July. At sun-rise, meridian, and sun-set a Na tional Salute was fired. After marching through various parts of the town, the company repair ed to Mount Eagle, a delightful retreat withir^ two miles of the town, aud partook of a sub stantial dinner. The greatest harmony prevailed. Every member’s bosom seemed to be filled with grati tude to the Worthies of ’76, for the inestimable privileges we enjoy, and resolved to honor in a becoming manner, the return of the day on which the principle “that all men arc created e(4ual” was promulgated to the world. ^ The dinner being over, and the clolb remov ed the following toasts were drunk:— George Washington: The Hero, the bagc, and the Statesman. [Drank in silence. Fourth of July, 1776: The birth day of free dom. .. . [3 cheers, 2 guns. The last surviving signer of that immortal instrument that gave a spur to the emancipa tion of our beloved country—Charles Carroll of Carrollton. . [3 cheers, 2 guns. The President of the U.

The Chesapeake and Ohit> Canal: May the lime not be far dis tant, when the waters of the Ohio may be min e-ted with those of the Potomac. Many other volunteers were given, but a hea vy shower of rain, falling, caused the members to disperse, and the toasts were not preserved i yfr. Southard and Gtn. Jackson.—The Wash ! ington papers him at the existence of a remark | able correspondence between these gentlemen, which we hope will be given without delay to • the public. We have known for some time, [ that there was such a correspondence—a corres pondence not less strangely originating, than indicative of Gen. Jackson’s violence and in temperance. If the rumor of the character of his late letter is true, we know no obligation by which Mr. Southurd should be restrained from publishing the whole correspondence; nay,there is no obligation violated by his doing so in any event, that we can perceive. He surely has a right to appeal from the injustice of Gen. Jack ton, to the tribunal of public opinion; and in doing so to avail himself of the only means to make the controversy intelligible. If this course is observed, we hope the orthography and syn tax of the correspondence will be left unim proved.—Richmond Whig. ISAAC B DESHA. Cinthiana June 16.—The June Term of the Hariison Circuit _ourt commenced its session on Monday last, the Hon. II. O.Brown presid ium, though labouring under'very severe indis position The prisoner appeared in discharge of his recognizance and the Attorney for the Commonwealth, on Tuesday, signified that he was ready A motion was made bv the prison er’s counsel, the exact nature of which we do not entirely understand—but was over ruled af ter a shbrt argument. We should endeavour to explain, but the fate of the prisoner pending, such a course might be deemed improper. The law of the last session, declaring that an opinion formed from “/wre rumorshould not be a cause of challenge,has been decided to op erate upon this case; because that’t did not al ter the ancient mode of trial by jury, but only changed a rule of practice, upon which judges themselves have differed. Attempts are now making to procure a jury under this regulation and a panel, we hesitate not to say, (provided the prisoner does not exercise his right of per emptory challenge,) will be procured. Agreat bodv of witnesses arc in regular and patient at tendance, for the ninth time, and appear anx ious that it should be jdisposed of. Any thing more at present, might be construed into a dis position to prejudice the cause ol the accused, and we shall here stop, remarking, that in our next, we shall endeavour to give an impartial history ol the proceedings at this term togeth I er with such thoughts and reflections as may j then present themselves. JJJv. David Crusick, an Indian of the Yu scat-ora tribe, has recently published, in Lewistown, Niagara County, N. Y. a book entitled ‘‘Sketch es of the ancient history of the six nations: com prising, first, a tale oi'the foundation of the Great Island, now North America, the two infants born, and the creation of the Universe. A real account of the settlement of North America, and their dissensions. 3d, Origin of the king dom of the Five Nation^ w hich was called a Long House; the wars, fierce animals, See.” From the Florida Advocate. At a rneetng of the gentlemen of the Bar, and the Executive officers of the Court, of the Mid- ; die Disttict of Florida, His Honor Judge Ma comb was called to the chair, and Edmund N. Sale was appointed Secretary. On motion of the U. States District Attor ney, Wm. Allison Me Rea, the following pream ble and resolutions were submitted and adopted unanimously. * The members of the Bar of Middle Florida, and the Executive officers of the Court, have heard with regret of the death of the Hon. A. B. WOODWARD, U States Judge for this District. This event is replete with painful emotions, as it has deprived the nation of a va luable officer, the Territory of a warm support er, themselves of a personal friend. In estimat ing his judicial character, we have every thing to admire, nothing to disapprove. Justice, im partial justice, was always administered with out regard to distinction of office or of wealth. Possessing a fund oflegal knowledge, which be longed to few, and deeply read in classical and scientific studies, he was at once the lawyer and the gentleman, the scholar and the patriot. As a man, those who knew him can answer lor his private virtues, no one ever had his acquaint ance, who did not value it, no one his friend ship, who was not proud of it. II such were his qualities, if such were the ornaments which adorned and illumined his character, if those services which we have recited, were exercised for the promotion of justice, then iudeed have we sustained a loss irremidable, if we were not encouraged by the hope, that while he is enjoy ing the fruits above ofhis virtuous labors below, his successor may look to him for an example of official and private worth.—ife had his fau lts, who has not—it is the lot of humanity to err, of divinity to forgive. If he had they were light and venial, and should never be remem bered, whilewe have continually before us such striking monuments ofhis inestimable worth. Resolved, That we attend the funeral of (he deceased* this afternoon at 5 P. M. and that wc wear crape on our left arm for 50 days. “ Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting and the foregoing preamble and resolutions, be published in the Florida Advocate. DAVID B. MACOMB, Chairman. Edmund N. Salk, Secretary, •m To the Editor of the Lexington, (Ky.J Hqiorter. Milledoeville, Geo. June 1, 1827. •Sir:—I gladly embrace an opportunity by a gentleman of your State, to give you what might by some be called the “signs of the times,” in this vj^arter of the Union. It seems the friends of General Jackson count for him an undivided vote in this State. Great pains have been taken by many of our prostituted papers, (and God knows we have many,' and several of our members of Congress, to convince the Eastern and Western States, that these calculations are correct. It is true, duiing the excitement among the people, pro duced by false statements, and the bullying con duct of our Governor, the Administration was unpopular; but since the people have discover <d a disposition on the part of the President to do alt he can for the State of Georgia, a pow erful reaction has taken place. The parties now stand as they formerly did, the Clark and the Troup parties. The Clark party will sup port Adams—the Troup party will support Jackson. Those two parlies are so nearly bal anced, that it is doubtful which will succeed. The Clark party will have the aid of Mr. Craw ford, who is open and decisive for Adams in preference to Jackson. The party called “Troup,” is misnamed. Mr. Forsyth is the life and soul of that party. It is believed bere, that Forsythe offeicd to swear allegiance to Mr. Adams, if he would give him the appointment at the Court of St. James. One fact is noto rious here, that he will serve any party or take any side in politics to promote himself. We who live in Georgia know it, ami it is a by saying that “Forsyth can’t stand still long enough to be counted.” Troup has no popu larity; hispartizans make use.of him as a tool, and view him as a vain, conceited, weak man. His conduct towards-has fixed his destiny for life here as a man of honor. The great Missionary of the North and his man Friday have passed through this Stale. Mr. Crawford could not be converted. I am told that the first report of the Jack son committee at Nashville has reached this state. I have not seen it, but it is said to be an unfortunate production for the cause of the General. The declaration of Jefferson to Gov. Coles, the disclosure of the facts as to the death of Dickerson in a duel with the General, and the letter of Colonel Benton describing the un manly attack of the General, backed by a ntob, against himself and brother in Nashville, are opening the eyes of the people of this State, as to the true character of the General, and of his entire unfitness to be President. Both par ties in this state are opposed to Calhoun for the V’ice Presidency—the sun of his glory is set to rise no more. Little did he think that in deciding a single point of order to serve Mr. Randolph, that thereby all his bl ight prospects were to vanish like a dream. It is said that lie keeps very much retired, and is in a melan choly mood. When a vacancy occurs, Craw ford will be honored with a scat in the Senate of tlie United States. Both parties agree to this. Wc arc persuaded the London Editor wrote the following for our opposition. We feci no supprisc at the acrimony which has infused itself into the new opposition, be cause it is in human nature, that men who are deprived, no matter by what means, of that which they covet, should rail at those who get what they have lost. And this feeling of irra tional resentment is the stronger in proportion as it is accompanied with the stings o( self re proach at the consciousness that they have only their own folly to thank for the plight in which they find themselves. They are like gamblers; who not only deplore their losses, but in bitter ness of heart, curse the weakness that betrayed them to their ruin. These paroxysms, however, though severe, are commonly of short duration; and after a little frantic writhing, and a few nas sionate ejaculations, the patient becomes tol erably composed. At this point of exhausted tranquility, those persons seem to have nearly arrived above violent sufferings during the last three weeks, have attracted so much public no tice. We were, of course, prepard for all they have done and said; hut we were not prepared for that bastard exasperation, that spurious sympathy, which some of their followers have displayed, who care not one straw about them, and who, in playing the part of their echo,‘‘y< 11 out syllables of dolor, with most amusing grav ity.—At first they were in a state of whimsical perplexity, and did not know whether they should laugh or cry; whether they should mourn or rejoice; but the moment they had their cue, they burst forth in one concerted strain of groans and execrations’ such as showed that they had at least been disciplined. Wc are alluding not only to titled and untitled Senators, but to those among our contempora ries who, in the space of a few short days, have swung round from the super loyal to the sub ra dical. There was no gradual preparation of their readers for the charge. It was, all at once a transition from double refined honey to double distilled vinegar, and heaven help us! what wry faces there must have been! Imagittd a dry-nur sed politician, accustomed to receive his morn ing tneal of unctuous loyally, suddenly suffoca ted with a dose of pungent radicalism! rl his barbarity has been, in particular, committed by one of our contemporaries, who used always to provide their probations of the most harm less kind, but who now prepares, in the furnace of his indignation, beverage, compared ta which the brimstone broth with which we are told his Satanic Majesty solaces himself, must be as refreshing as a glass of iced lemonade. We profess not to understand the mystery ot all this. We do not comprehend how the idol of to-day can become the fiend ot to morrow; how unchanged, himself his worshippers, and they too whose devotion was the most ardent, should become wholly changed. Yet wc have heard the miracle called consistency. Were, we, however, required to give it a name, we should designate it the basest species of apos tacy, because produced neither by private fee lings on one hand, nor by the shew of public principle on the other; but springing from a sordid though short sighted calculation of sell interest.—Neto _Banmp aim YoyI ofi Alexandria. ■ * ■ ’ * ' *' ARRIVED—Jolt 6.
