So h for this toll free-bridge ! ff~ver was paved over for amile and if Carolina Co'ton would not pass over/in Hamburg to Augusta-that fact has-en w6l-settled long since, and it is ting to see those littlo flickering rush -is "resolve, It only am dnns to "solve'. to ' pay the printer,' but they 41 never do even that, from their profits f Cotton in wagons over this - Free Bridge.' The day has gie by. The toll on this Bridge have. done much for the prosperity of H amburg, but freeing it now for Cotton wagons, will not disturb the onward course of the prosperous town of hamburg. Those who would -o over with theit esb, are required to pay toll, and those who-are invited to go 'free,' with the-pass port of a loaded wagon, can do better else where. " When I leave the streets of Hamburg, for. Georgia soil, it will be to take salt va ter," so says CAROLINA COTTON. For the Advertiser. SELF-EXAMINING SOCIETY. Attong the many Societies established in our country, to extend the principles of Chris tianity. and to improve the murals of the pen pie at large, it is a sutject of real regret, that while so laudable a zeal is manifested, and so much pains taken to remove the mote ont of our neighbor's-eye. there should be no Socie ty formed, no pains taken, to induce men first to cast the beam out of their own: or, in other words. a Society whose end and aim should be to examine our own he.arts and ltves. and see if toe, ourselves, are not guilty of some habits and vices, that need reform. which are equally as bad as those, which we are so ready to dis cover in onr neighbors. This Society, it-wonld seem. onght to take the lead of all others; and it shall be the first object of our exertions to suppress the follies and vices of mankind. " Physician heal thyself," is an admonition coming from the highest authority, and is as applicable to the Scribes and Pharisces now, as it was 1800 years ago. Did the membeirs of our popular societies as well as others, take half the pains to examnine themselces. and cor rect their own faults, that they do so, to hunt up and expose the faits and follies of others, bow much more like Christians would they act. How much more happy and peaceable would be the condition of every community and neighborhood!' And, wete a Society for self-examination once instituted, in this, or any other place.and made as popadar as our Tempe rance Societies, and many others now are, how much less running to a.id fro. or, of unm bers standing in the cprners ~f the streets, thank ing God that they are not like other men, shouid we then behold. The following Constitution is subtnitted for the government of said Society: ARTICLE 1st.

This Society shall be independent of all other Societies.

Now we are particularly fond of celelrati us, especially those of a n tional character, but when it comes to rejoicing over a fallen political party, and that party too honest and just in their cause and principle, we see danger ahead. It is but the beginning of trouble, and may lead on despotism. That the cou: trymen of Washington ! should raise honfires and revel in excess, merely because. their fel liw-citizens have sustained a defeat in the election of their candidate, is a pro ceeding which every patriot should look upon with caution and dread of the fit ture. When it cornes, that, might and rowdyism rules the ballot box of this country, Heaven deliver us from the con sequences.

Diseaue and Death.-These foes of the humatn race are extending their ravages thr,,nghocui our land. tn our own State we have heard of much sickness in varn Otis parts.

Ir tecome uis to profit by the d'ealing of God in his providence with others, and to store up his grace in our heart, that w~e may be prepared for an evil day and for death. Chriserian Imn- -. Fire on the Central Rail Road.-We learn from a passenger who came down on the Road yesterday that the three freight car swith about 100 bales of Cotton were burned, while standing.on the turnout the 70 mile station. We are informed that a'fire'had been built nearthe cars, but whether it was communicated in this -or some other manner, we have not been able to ascertain. We doubt not that an investigation will be instituted, and that in due time the neglect or mischief which led to this calamitious result will be known. We have received some statements from trust worthy sources,to the effect that consirterable intemperance exists among some of the engineers and conductors on the road. The observation of several of those gentlemen who lately went to the Macon celebration, or we might rather say, their information went to establish this fact. Since the above was in type, we have learned that on Saturday night, another car attached to the same train was burnt, containing about twenty bales -Cotton. This accident took place some' where above the eighty mile station, but we have been unable to ascertain the particulars. [Savannah Repnblican, 24th ult. Travelling by the Great Central Route. -Inportant Informaion.-W e are rejoic ed to inforn the travelling public, that an arrangement has been adopted by which travellers will be taken from Charleston via Savannah, to Franklin, Alabama, for ttwetty-Jfour and an half dollars. Passen gers receive tickets at Charleston for the whole route, the only staging heing from the point of departure on the Monroe Rail R-ud to Franklin. The fair by the boats has been reduced to 85 from Charleston to Savannah, and to 87 from Savannah to Macon for all tr'trellers. This avoids the 65 miles of s' -i ;, to which those travellers are sub jected on the route via Augusta and Mad ison, and gives one night for rest at Sa vannah, and another at Macon.-Savan nah Republican. The first reqtisite talent for a man to introduction inn rpnd society, in this country, is for him to curse and swear well. Let him be an adept in this, and he will be sure go ahead. In England and Ireland, this practice is held in contempt, even among the lower classes. Here it is considered as smartness and a gift of na tural abilities. Children are taught to swear before they can speak ilain their mother tongue, and long before they are instrueted to say their prayers. Yet we think that our country is the nost enligh tened in the world; and perhaps it is en lightened in the practice of swearing. Next to an open infidel slanderer, keep us aloof from the profane swearer. It is one of the lowest, and nigeardly callings that a gentleman can be guilty of. It shows a want of decency and a proper education, and we would not stigmatize our parents in such a manner-rather keep dark. Hamburg Journal. The Cock and the Coon.-Chapman of the Indiana Sentinel, the first chicken of the democratic party. draws the following comparison between the popular political emblems of the day : "The democratic papers announce al. most every victory tinder time figure of a crowing-rooster. We had. doubtless some share ourself, unintentionally, however, of introducing this bird as an emblem of de mocracy. Brave, vigilant. an d sprightly, lie is ahvavs on tbe watch. So soon as tlie Sun like a great locofoco match, light ens up the world, and scatters the darkness of tight, thte cock salutes us with his well ktnown cry of locofa CO. ie i% faithful and constant in his attachmecnts, attd loaths traitors or those who ftorsake their friends. When St. P.dter like a whig; failed to re dei-m the' promi ses he tade, the cock re pritmandetd him thrtee times. And through out the Union the derdioeratie cock is re parimandinig the whigs for failing to retdeem the .promuises of good imes--of "two dol harnn. day, and roast beef." The C'oon or w'hig ensign is a ktavish animal.-lle prowls a bouttin the dal'k and direads the light. The blazie of a loco foco matcha starts him oiffin alarm.
