From the Camden Journal. WartNaoa'O,BURKa Co. Ga.. MAY 6th,.4845. Afr."ditor:-In the. discharge of my duty at this place, my attention. was called to a. group of persons who were all atten tively, listening to the reader. The sub ject matter was " That one wheeled Sul key."- I very soon. discovered the paper to be she -'The Camden Journal"-my mind at once recurred to former things, and I listened attentively to the remarks of my friend S. N. T., as also the remarks of yourself, for which you will both please accept.my warmest thanks. And while I recur to the past, I trust nothing personal shall be considered, while at the same time I ,be permitted to touch on, as I pro ceed. 'After I had-finished I procured it, (the Journal of the 30th uit.) I perused it, and found that those who once derided me and-with sneers and contempt ridi culed my ;invention, are now making "amende honorable" for the past, and coming up'in a Carolina spirit to my help. Wbirdi- sojourned with you, the happiest days of my life would, have been spent upon the classic ground of old Camden, had it not have been that I ever aroused the curiosity add doubts of those that -1 had ever -invented "That one wheel Sul key." -But I met with obstacles altnoet, insu'rmuutable-the frowns of the self important the wisdom of self conceit, the jeers and taunts of ridicule.-the. laugh of the ignorant, and the. contempt of the Lord-like aristocracy, which, together with pecuniary embarrassment, drove me. to --another section to .seek- protection, respect and a livelihood. Had a contrary course been pursued towards me by. those to whom I allude, and 'a friend had been found .who would have stood by me, and have responded to wsy -want of pecuniary means, it.would have enabled me to have carried, out my intention, and 1 should now have been confortably living upon the result of my success. and.would now-ha.e occupied the position to which I am enti tied. That however is fortnnately passed. and that I am the original- inventor of The one t'heel Stilkey." ny future action will .show.' 'Tis true, and I am proud of it, that there was found by me many liberal, high minded friends too, in the community, who looked into this inven tion-. with much interest, and many were actuated by motives of curiosity, to all of whom I neverrefused an explanation-but alas, many- of these .were, like myself, poverty was- their only crime-were it not so. I could have procured the necessary assistance and have completed my inven .tion with credit and success amid all the excitement, doubts and cavils of the wise of that day. I however c'oncluded that amid all the embarrassments. and perplexities which crow del upon me at that titte, that "Sweetare the.usesof adversity, "Which like a Toad ugly and venomous, tW~ears yet a precious jewel in his head." and I looked forward to that day. when I should ride successfully over them, in " That one wheeled Sulkey"-establish my claims, and as it now is, dispute my right successfully, with this.'aid "Reamington" of Virgiuia. Now si, this vehicle was put in Operation by myself in miniature, tested by a friend -who no- sleeps from accident at .Camden. originally from " Charleston." ,About 3or 4 'months ago I made a collect1in of such materials as are necessary to again put this vehicle in motion-but again was I frustrated by the necessities of my dependence, and I left to attend thte various courts contiguous to the city of Augusta. WVhen one morning after my return, on looking over the cx exchang~e papers . perceived witht aton ment that a "Mir. Reainingtone of Virginia." htad carried outt may original design and invention, "That one wheel Sulkey." I imtmediately set down and addressed a letter to my old friend J. R?. McK. Eq. I was however, responded to by youtrself nd "S. N. T." accoinpatnied with a v'ery proper Editorial. Sullice it, I have obtained "legal ad vice" on the subject-my course is a plain one-I shall dispute every inch of grottnd with " Mr. Reamington" in due time. T~he principle and inention of the one wheel Sulkey is mine-the data of invention atnd origin are witht me. The causes for my ptrocrastimating its accomtplishmtent are numerous and cogent. Thie most insturat00ut able, unfortunately for Mr. Reatnington, was my want of titme as well as my poverty-andi still while I nursed this invention with care, and often sighetd for its accotmplishment, 1 have lived to see myself temporarily anticipated by "ne who (perhaps) has borrowed my original invention, in order that he mightt drive off' withm the eredit of leading, in order .hat I might overtake. 0f which.- I do hereby forewarn all persons'ithroughout the United States thar J am the original inventor of - That one wheel Sulkey.~". and that it is my determni Snation to test the merely "prima facia" eviden.e of letters Patent (if obtained) ty a proper course and appliation of tmy rights and justice, to the Judiciary or a higher tribunal. -Yours &c. with respect. - A.

One of the most important bills of the session, is the Erercise law, which author izes the submission to the people of each town the question of license or no license -excepting, however, the city of New York.-South Carolinian. - Nsxw ORLEANS,.May 15. The C'onvention.-The convent ion tFr minated its labors yesterday, for although the adjournment sine die will probably -not take place until to-day, nothting re mains save the enrollment of the Constitu tion. It was determined, that the new consti tution should be published withijn twenty dafs following its adoption, to wit-in N. O . Bee, Courier, Bulletin, and Jeffersoni an. and itn all the country- papers, and that the-smof6$25 should be allowed for its p iublication ini English alone. and $50 in English and French. . -Amotion having been made to reject -the previsot-eqegting the Isegislature to remove the seat of government at least 60 miles from' New Orleans, the President declared the motion out of order, where upon a long an'd animated.debate arose, in which Messrs. Eustis, Grvmes. Penn, Benjmin and Wadsworth, took part in favor of the city, and Mr. M. Taylor on the opposite side. An appeal from the decisionof the chair was taken, but the President was sustained by a small ma jority. So it was finally determined that the seat shall be remi'ved from New Or leans, and shall not be fixed within sixty miles of that dreaded city. The Convention then proceeded to vote upon the final adoption of the Constitu tion. This.soleninity occupied about one hour, as nearly every member considered himself bound to specify at some length the reasons for his vote. The following was the result.-Yeas 55, Nays 15.-Bee. The Weather.-During 'the past week we have, been blessed with seasonable and most abundant rains, which have greatly improved our agricultural prospects. For three days, although the sun appea'red in his full splendor. :he air was so cool, as to render fires and wintier clothing not only agreeable, but actually .necessary to corn fort, in the morning and evening. Our principal field crops look promising, with the exception of wheat, which is pretty genera lly.injured by frost ahd drought. Cheraw Gazette, 20th inst. Ministers Dead-The Black Tongue - The Rev.

In Sugar, Gollee, anti other great staple arti cles, the deand has been very great ; and although the market has nut been quite so brisk during the pat week, yet wve believe there n~ill at piresent be no great reaction. The Cottn market has been bonyant of late, and, in somne descripiton~s, the irm provemient has reached a larthinig a pound.

LATE FROM MEXICO. The New York Journal of Commerce of Tuesday 3 P. M., has the following intelligence from Mexico: We learn from Capt. Baker, of the barque Falmouth, which left Mantanzas, May 9th, that-the English mail steamer from Vera Cruz arrived at Havana 7th inst., with despatches for Mr. Crawford, the British Consul, advising him that the boundary line of Texas .had been defined and settled, and her Independence guaran tied by a convention between England, France and Mexico. Accounts by the same arrival state that Santa Anna has been reduced to the alternative of ten year. banishmet, or a trial for mal-ad ministration. The above intelligence must have left Vera Cruz on the 2d or 3d inst., which is ten days later than our previous advices. . This joint guarantee of Texas Indepen dence, with a specification of boundaries, is a more definite form of the proposition sent to Texas from Mexico, some weeks sinee, pe rpr. frigate Erudice. The Tex an government objected to that proposi tion. that it specified no particular bonu dary ; but intimated that if this objection were obviated, and a liberal boundary specified, the proposition would- be pre senten to the people for a:loption or rejer-. tion, simultaneously with. the annexation project. We presume the line has been placed pretty far West, in the hope of inducing the Texans to acquiesce; but it will he in vain,-they are almost unani mous for Annexation, and Annexation will be the result.

The digmity, the respectability and the honor of the profession require the adoption of suach a systeum, arid it is duo the people, that a fee bill be adopterd in accordance with the times.

After which, the meeting might take into consideration ether subjects. And one which will be well worthy of its consideration is, the propriety oJ establishting a Medical Society or Societies in Edgefield Dlistrict. 'rho utility of which, if properly coouducted. both as re gards advancing the science of Medicine and the benefits to the community, inust be ac kntowledged by all.
