GEORGIA.
The returns from the Georgia Election begin
wi com® in. ,
In Chatham County, in which is Savannah,
the Union ticket has prevailed by a considera
ble majority over the Nullification.
The same result has taken place in Augusta,
d it is highly probable that the same will be the
rase throughout the state. _
yR.,M Icmatka.—The Boston Gazette says,
Capt Briggs of the bark Alasco, arrived at this
rt yesterday, from Sumatra, whence she sail
on the 27th, states that of all the vessels on
[he coast two or three only would be able to
foCure cargoes, the crops this season being
iroaller than usual, and the English vessels
bavins taken away more P°PPer than they usu'
a-ly do___—
Cholera at HAiiFAX.-Capt. Lane of the brig
Cordelia, from Halifax, 4th inst. states that the
Cholera had entirely disappeared. No cases
were reported on the 4th. __
Beckford’s neitly published work attracts so
mucb attention, that we have to day given ano
ther extract from its pages. Last week we pub
lished some of his sketches of the Low Coun
_to-day we add something of what he has
,akl of sunny Italy. These graphic pictures
wai please every literary reader.
It is officially announced iu the Mud Machine,
printed in Washington, and issued yesterday,
that 14 the President asks for nothing that is not
n-ht, and will submit to nothing that is wrong”
_Iwhich original idea our readers doubtless ne
ver remember to have heard of before!
Since tlie recent14 glorious Jackson triumphs”
in Maryland, Delaware, and Connecticut! we
understand it is admitted that the cursed “Vigs”
are not to be sneezed at.
We regret to learn that further and serious
difficulties have occurred between the Journey
men Printers of Washington and the proprietor
of the United S'ates’ Telegraph, which have re
tarded the publication of that paper.
We are glad to perceive that the “ Boston
Commercial Gazette” hitherto a partial suppor
ter of the administration, caiue out on Thurs
day with a declaration that it could no longer
withhold its disapprobation of the measures of
the government, and that it shall hereafter
“give a decided, manly, but temperate support
to the principles of the Whig party—or at least
to such of them as we Shall consider beneficial
to the great interests of the country. Towards
Mr. Van Buren, who is to be the candidate of
the administration party f<>r the Presidency,
(the editors say.) we have ever entertained an
unqualified dislike; and in the coming contest,
therefore, this Gazette will be found in the ranks
opposed to the advancement of that gentle
man.” __
After an interruption of about three or four
weeks, we were graciously permitted, in conse
quence ot the unexampled mail facilities, and
the certainty and expedition with which the
mail is transported, yesterday to receive a New
Orleans paper of the 23d of September!
[COMMUNICATED. J
To the Ale randria Independent Volunteers.
It having become evident, not only that we
are deserted by our Field Officers, but that they
have lost all interest in the welfare of the volun
teer companies. I would ask, can you, as free
men, tamely submit longer to he forced, not on
ly to do all the military duty prescribed by law,
but. as has been the case in the time of danger,
to take your lives in vour hands and your mus
kets on your shoulders, and parade the streets
In defence ofthe lives, families, and property of
the common militia while they are comfortably
resting at home with their families, secure from
duty, danger anti fatigue? If you are, be it so:
but I. for one. am not, nor do I believe you are.
Therefore, let a meeting of the company be
f illet!, and let ns cease longer to be a volunteer
company belonging to the Regiment.
I have no objection to our existence as a vo
lunteer company,—but let us be volunteers,
mastering in our own time; and when we mus
ter by law. let us muster as other militia do.
I. lor one. think it expedient that we should
nave a well organized militia; but I have no
i .'M that men who volunteer at fifteen or twen
ty dollars expense for their own benefit, should
t* compelled to do all the duty.

EDITOR’S CORRESPONDENCE.
Washington City, Oct. 11, 1834.
Dear Sir:—I have just seen the gentleman
who first informed me of the enormous frauds
lately discovered on the part of Judge Temple,
of Vermont; and it appers that the unfortunate
man committed suicide, under the following
circumstances. He was in the habit of going to
the Post Office at Rutland for his letters, and
finding one there addressed to Judge-,
dated at Washington, he took it out of the Post
Office, and told the Post Master he would give
it to the Judge, as he was going to see him. In
stead of doing so, the unfortunate man broke
open the letter—and, finding it was an order
from the Department for his arrest, he secretly
took his gun, went into the stable, and shot him
self through the heart. This statement, I think,
may be relied on. Capt. Beall, who accompa
nied Mr. Ela, the Messenger, sent to arrest the
unfortunate Judge, is returned to the city.
MARRIED,
On Thursday evening Iasi, by the Rev. Mr.
Webster, James D. Rudd, to Miss Belinda Wood, j
