list minister executed in or near the
town of Milledgeville, GA. for com
hitting a rape, and then hanging a
young girl about ii years of age; his
step-daughter, we believe. Not long
since, negro fellow was taken up in

he confessed his guilt; and also vol

SUPPORT YOUR MECHAN-
ICS.-There is scarcely anything
which tends more to the Improvement
of town than a fair and liberal sup.
port offered to mechanics Of every
descriplion.-Population is necessary
to the prosperity Of any county; and
the population being OF an honest
and industrious character, renders
prosperity more certain, uniform and
unvarying. Scarcely any places have
risen to much Importance, even if
possessed ofthe best commercial ad-
vantages, without due regard to the
encouragement or the mechanical
arts. For though the importation Of
merchandise forms the leading feature
of such place, the various arts OF
mechanics are put invariably into
requisition, and are indispensable to
render the progress of commercial
operations safe. To an inland town
mechanics are equally important as
elsewhere. They constitute large
and highly respectable portion Ct So
ciety in all countries, but in towns
and villages they are almost leading
constituent part of their growth and
population.
To afford ample support to this
class of citizens, so highly useful and
necessary, is certainly the duty Of
