From the Savannah Georgian.
The old year passed with sigh & Gruan,
As sigh and eroan he might;
For in his course full mary one
Hath felt misfortune's blight.
And many heart that hailed this morn.
With eladness and with glee.
Recalls hopes transient blossoms flown
With pain and misery.
Pale sickness track'd his manhood's path,
And 'empests his decline, :
Aud Cotton fell from fifteen cents,

From the South Carolinian.

We cordially. heartily spprove Of the
above nomination, and equally concur in
all the sentiments SO appropriately and
justly expressed in relation 10 it, by our
respected contemporary of The Charleston
Mercury. We Iis sd expected. previous To
the session, and before hearing the name
of Col. Richardson, suggested, that Col.
Benz. T. Elmore would be candidate,
in accordance with The earnest wishes of
his many friends; bu, from ths moment We
heard Col. Richardson's name urged, to-
gerher with the honorable, and TO us hi g!,-
ly gratifying motives tn al prompted it; and
that Col. EImore had positively declined
to be candidate, ip consequence of The
pressing engagements Of his private affairs
and cordially approved the nomination of
Col Richardson's; we have entertained the
most decided appreciation Of that nomina.
ton, aud confident tina, it would secure
The general and hearty support of our po.
litical friends, Of either of the old State
parties. So far; this confidence has been
fully sustained. No, the slightest express
sion Of doubt or disapprohalion. has been
uttered in sur hearing, or that OF any one
we have spoken With on The subject; but
everywhere The most Spontaneous gratif-
cation, not only at the nomination itself,
hui the just aud generous motives of it, so
natural to bur people and peculiarly ho,-
orable To their character; aud we feel as
sured that Col. Richardson will'gD into of
fire, not merely without opposition, buI
with the unanimous vote ofthe State.
II affords us great pleasure to add the
following responses from the Patriot aud
Courier. especially The latter, on account
of its highly gratifying admission, that sour
old party jeud is no,o thoroughly healed."
"Blesscd be the peace makers" aud their
mutual and most appropriate and worthy
peace-otfrring! We greatly rejoice atrhis
means Of satisfying our respected Union
friends end associates, thai the hand of
friendship extended To them from The first
moment that the great question of differ
ence waa' honorably and aInicably settled,
has been thoroughly hones, and sincere.

My DEAR SIR,-Inclosed are three dol

To open your ewes to the true cause OF the
apathy, open hostility and truly michla'e'
= nlicv of our government towards the pat
riots of Canada, who have iallen under her
naledict5n. Domestic slavery must be
preserved at the expense Of national hon
or, love OF freedom and every thing else,
that once was sacred in this Republic.
The late neutrality act, VIII yet cause
every man who is lover OF freedom TO
hlush TOR his dishonored country. Only
let il be known that slavery Is 10 be ad-
vsncpd--and our government is ready on
all occasions 10 be quiet. Have you ever
known, my dear sir, Texan olhcer or
soldier arrested, or arms or ammunition
conGsca,ed, which have been designed for
establishing slavery, by the officers OF our
governments! 1t fairly sickens my soul
whenever" hear the name oil Mackenzie
mentoned; or when think Of the fate OF
those Young heroes, who pefshed al Pres
cou. Nor does the cold and horrld MUIR
der of the victims on board the Caroline
seem anv less awful in my eyes. While
our rulers seem TO. have forgotten that a
transaction Of the Kind ever happened.
All will yet come right. The Canadas
must and viii be free, and slavery now
supported by our executive and priesthood
will be overturned. The genius OF unlver-
sal emancipation is abroad; the spirit OF
God is moving the hearts Of men, and soon
Shall il be said of those, who uSurp the
liberties Of States. Provinces, persons or
Kingdoms, " hther shalt thou come, and
no further; and here shall thy proud waves

nossess thy soul. "Yon will reap in due
