A, meeting of the Stockholders in the
Louisville Cincinnati and Charleston Bail
Road Company, will be held this day, Dec.
4, at 10 o'clock, A. M. in the Town Hall;
above the Market. Punctual attendance i4
desired, as business of the utmost importance
to the company is to be transacted.
The sixth volume of The Statutes at Large
of South Carolina is published, and may be
had at Cunningham's. It smbraces from
1814 to 1838. The work has progressed
rapidly in the hands of the present compiler.
Since his appointment in May last, the 5th
and Qth volumes, of above 800 pages each,
have been published, and tbe-7th is oow in
progress.
The College. At a late meeting of the
Board of Trustees, Dr. Robert Henry was'
ejected Professor of Belles Lettres and the
Philosophy of Laaguage, in. place of the,:
Rev. Mr. Thornwell, resigned. We .ar er
glad to see the great learning of this gen
tleman again employed in its appropriate,
sphere.
The vacant chair of Greek and Roman
Literature has been filled by the election of
the Rev. Mr. Hoopkb, in favor of whom
the recommendations were very high.
The Steam ship, the British Queen, ar

which, however, is scarcely interesting e

trade markets, little change had taken place.
Massachusetts. Accounts are not yet
positive as to the election in this State. 1
is there necessary to the election of a can
didate for the governorship, that he should
have a majority of all the votes given. Such
does not appear to be the case with either
Everett or Morton, (though the latter is
several hundred votes ahead,) so that by pro
vision of law, the election devolves on the
Legislature. The composition of that body,
too* is rather uncertain, each party claiming
a majority.
Mississippi. The two administration can
didates are elected tto Congress. *

ment expenses; and that no man-*11
a freeman, wbo does not look '45e C08t
liberties ip the face.

whiKit saves tin? citizens from the constant
impositions of the cubing, is the only hon
est,' "cheap, safe me<*um for raising supplies,

Resolved, 'JViatit is a fraud upon the pub
lic, wherever a Bank, or other chartered
corporstion, declares a dividend upon bor
rowed money, or upon any basis, other than
its otear receipts, and good faith profits.
Jfttsolved, That if it be not an usurpation,
it is at: least an abuse of power, on the part
of the Legislature, to tax the citiaen, for
any^but the unquestionable exigencies and
exposes, of the coi/ntry, and that most alli
an$#0f between the1 State and any one class
of its citizens, in trade or speculation, result
ut^eutotirbly to that wholesome competition
ofrgthe&'tslasatesef the community from which
the p&fpfe derive many of their chief securi
ties#
Op .motion* of Hon. J. P. Richardson,
?he Convention adjourned to meet at 6
o'clock to-morrow etening.
J "
Mr. Editor ? I was pleased to see it late
ly mentioned that it is proposed to put
in nomination, Gen. Tops. F. Jones, for
the Presidency ol the Rail Road, and would
feel highly gratified if be should accede to
it. It would certainly conduce much to the
interests of that great work, to have a real
practical business man at the head of it. ?
One who would entirely and exclusively de
vote himself, to the arduous duties of the
office ; who would combine clear sound judg
ment with firmness and energy ; and who
would, with labour and perseyering industry,
carefully and cautiously e*ami/je inio details.
Such precisely, are the distioguisbiog cha
racteristics of Gen. Jones; not hypothetical,
merely, but faifly tested aod shewn in seve
ral stfccessive works of a public nature,
which have happened to fall under bis
charge, as well as in the general scope of his
own business. His penetration and good
judgment, which are generally fcuowp, are
not superior if equal, to the patient ai*d per
severing industry with which he <.
the most minute details of. every subjt .
investigates I mean no disparagement ?
the pretentions of any other gentleman who
may be spoken of for that office, when I
venture to predict that if Gen. Jones should
be called to preside over the affairs uf the
Louisville, Cincinnati and Charleston .Rail
Road, a system of prudent economy* intro
duced with forecast, and enforcrd ' with steal
and ability, would, within a reasonable time,
change tfie aspect of its affairs, and inspire
the Company whh lenewed cotifidrnce.
