THE STATES.

- THE STAIEs.
= - The legislatures of Georgia, and
Souih Carolina, and Alabama, are now in
session. The movement in all of them
are decisively marked with strong Repu6-
Iican principles.
In the Legislature Of Georgia an elo-
qusnt report has been presented by Mr.
Howard, from the committee on the state
tofthe Republic. We regret that we have
not room to day 70. lay it before our rea-
sders 1t presents an able view of tho ex-
traordinary proceedings of the extfaordln'
ary session of Congress, and administers
asevere rebuke to Mr.. Senator Berren'
It protests against the Bank bills, tho DIS
tribution act, and takes the strongest
ground on behalf of Republican prlncI-
pies.
In the Legislature of Alabama, dem
onslration is made against the Distribu-
tion. "The joint preamble and resolu-
tions (says the Tuscaloosa Flag of the
itl7th inst.) introduced in the Senate on
Thursday last, by the Hon. W. X. Baylor,
of Jefferson, against the reception Of a
portion of the proceeds Of the sales Of
public lands thar may fall TO the share Of
this State in the grand scheme of bribery,
devised by Mr.. Clay, had their second
reading in that body on Monday, and were
referred to the Committee on Federal Re-
lations. We do not know what will be
the character Of tho report the Com
mittee will make on them. But we de.
Voutly hope that Alabama may be the first
to reject, by tho solemn forms of legisa
tive action, this degrading and insulting
bribe; and TO teach the ambitious Fed
eFal aspirant for the Presidency, tina
though wo may be poor, yet he is notricl
enough, even with the spoils of the Ma
tional Treasury at his command to buy US
That as VIC withstood all the log cabin
red pepper, hard cider and coon-skin ap
plances of the Tip and Ty campaign, Sc
we can and will withstand the bribery ant
corruption with which the States are now
TO be assailed. This will be proud dis
tnciion for Alabama.
The same paper says: "Among the
proceedings of the Senate on Monday
last, our readers will find the letter o
the Hon Clement Q. Clay, resigning hi
seat in the Senate of the United State
Every Democrat in the State will regre
the necessity that has compelled the lat
honorable Senator to adopt this course
He has a faithful public servant, an
has done the State good service. HI
has boen been identified with her inter
ests ever since Alabama has been Nom
ber Of the Union. And now when h
finds himself in the retirement of privat
life, he will have tfor prond and conso
ling reflection, that he never stood high
or in the confidence and affections of th'
people, than at the very moment whol
he felt himselfculled upon 10 retire from
their service"
Tho letter of Mr.. Clay is manly, anC
rather spicy-and has called forth some
debate in the House.

SINGULAR DEATH.--The Boston Alta
states that a remarkable case Of deatI
from excessive physica irritation. occur
red at Framingham, Mass, few days
since "a young man named Henry
Coolidge, of tat place having shaved the
face, OF. his dead father previous to the in.
terment of tho corpse, soon after applied
the same razor to his own face. Although
his father had died a natural death, and
nothing at all remarkable had been observ-
ed in the manner of his decease, the
face and head ofthe son began to swell
almost Immediately after having finished
the operation Of shaving, and in short
time he was himself corpse. Such ca,
ses of extreme irritation, though rare, are
not Unprecedented, although the explain.
alton OF such phenomena are by no means
easy. In the present case, the absorb.
ton OF virus from the dead body seems
almost impossible, though there is no 9th
er manner in which we can at all satisfac-
torily account for the violent irritation
which followed the use Of the razor, and
itS fatal effects"

PRETTY GOOD.

A prisoner who had Unexpectedly been
acquitted of the charge for which he was
arraigned before Judge Bowlin the other
day, upon being informed that he was at
liberty TO go, turned TO the jnry, and with
much feeling observed--"Gentlemen of
the jury, thank you from the bottom of
my heart for the decision you have Just
rendered: you will be ever remembered
in my prnyres; TO you my worthy, and 1
must say cute friend, (add ressing himself
10 his counsel,) wish it was in my pow
er to double your fee; the feeling enter
tain for you cannot be expressed by words
you are indeed the criminals benefac-
tor; to you, your honor, (aidrossing the
Judge, who could scarcely suppress the
SMILEY am everlastingly indebted, but
all can say to you is, | promise you up
on my honor, now that am free, that
never will be guilty Of stealing again a
long as | live" His counsel ii is said i
the only one who didn't fell little strea

THE BOUNDARY LINE.

A correspondent of the Boston Jour
nal, writing from Bangor, gives some in.
formation respecting the success of the
ex parte lauors Of the Commissioners ap-
pointed to run the Northeast Boundary
Line highly favorable 10 the claim of the
Uaited States Government. He says the
Commissioners have completed their
work. Professor Renwick, who ran the
line from lhe N. E. angle, along the high
landa to the N, W. angle, arrived at his
terminus on the goth of October, and re-
turned homo by the way of Quebec. The
highlands are Of a deCription that leaves
no doubt of their identity with those
mentioned in the treaty. Capt. Talcott
who ran the westernly line TO the N. w.
angle, arrived there short time previous
TO Professor Renwick's party. The Brit
ish Commissioners followed directly upon
Capt Talcott's line to the highlands -
The British Officers on tho Temiscouta
AXE, went over 10 the ground, and OK,
lamined some part OF the survey, on the
highlands, and it is said, expressed them
selves satisfied with the American claim
The sources of tho rivers running into
the ST. Lawrence, and into the Atlantic
were discovered, and frequently at no
great distance apart. This information
augurs favorably for the settlement of the
claim in our favor;- the writer predicts
that before is43, after the labors of the
joint commission, who 60 upon tho line
next yoar, shall be completed, such will
be the result.-Phh Ledg.

our exports exceeded our imports in the
