notice of. fraud and villainy---again we keve to
'blush° tor the chatacter of Georgia. A respectable'
Etterceutile house in this Pace ,has shoWn ac-
ccutnt sales of 66 bates, ofi Upland Cotton, .sold
in Liverpool, by which it appears that 3108 pounds
'of stones, dirty and 'damaged cotton, and other
'rubbish, were found in the 66 bales, packed in
their centre. What a shameful imposition 1. Y The
wieuch who could be guilty of it deserves the
,gilibet or the gallows. We are assuveil:.that
'proper 'steps will be taken to bring to. punishment
the swindlers. Let an example be made, and.we
shall hear no more of such base jthflwiC6ollB.
