I' Ces and disadvantages, without any benefits to any other communities equally important. The only recommendation (which your Committee is advised of) offered in the change, is the feet that the Northern mails via Raleigh, by the proposed route, would reach Gadsden, twenty miles South of Columbia, (a mere depot,) on the Rail Road from Columbia to Charleston, about two hours sooner than at present. But no adVantage would result from this, as the Southern mails, by the way of Wilmington, would sooner have reached tlie same point; and the news by that route would be in advance of it, from 12 to 24 hours. If it was proposed to divert the great Southern mail from the present route through Charleston, even a few hours saved in time, would be an argument in favor of change?but this is not contemplated, from any thing of which your committee is informed?and even if it was, there would be an insuperable objection to the proposed route, arising from the difficulty of crossing the Watcrcc river, opposite to Stateburg, there being no bridge over the river at that place, and also from the fact that at every considerable rise in tire river, it cannot be approached, owing to the existence of deep lakes in the swamp, which are easily rendered impassable. Your Committee are aware that, although Gadsden has not been a stopping point as yet, for one month, that citizens of the immediate neighborhood of Stateburg, who had come up to Gadsden from Charleston, have been unable to cross the riveroppasite Stateburg, and have been compelled tocorae up to the bridge at this place, to get Jhome. There is no bridge over the Pee Dee river except at Clieraw, which place it is proposed to avoid. The same objections, therefore, which fcave been urged against crossing the Wateree at Statebure' would apply to crossing the Pee Dee at any ?tier place than Cheraw. Your Committee are alsoof the opinion that it is not the object of the government to transmit the mail from one point to another in the shortest possible time, but to adopt such mail routes as will afford the general diffusion of intelligence to the greatest number of persons in the shortest time?and this certainly is best effected by the mails passing through the principal towns, from whencethe smaller mails may diverge in all diaections over the country. Your Committee would, therefore, recommend the adoption of the following Resolutions: Resolved, That it is inexpedient to change the mail route, which passes through Cheraw, Camden and Columbia. Resolved, That a copy of these proceedings be forwarded to the Postmaster General, our immediate Representative in Congress, the Hon. T. D. Sumter, and to both our Senators. After reading, on motion of Dr. DeLeon, the Report and Resolutions were unanimously adopted, and ordered to be published in the Camden Journal. On motion of W. J. Gerald Esq. Ordered, That a copy of the same be forwarded to the citizens of Cheraw and Columbia, inviting their co-one ration. On ^motion the meeting then adjourned. JOHN WORKMAN, Chairman. R. L, Wilson, Secretary. For the Camden Journal. Mr. Editor: The late fire in Columbia, has caused me to enquire what are our means for contending with the devouring element] I find there are belonging to the town, three Engines, (all of which leak badly, or are otherwise out of order,) several Fire Hooks, but no ropes. The Fire company have a Suction Engine, in good order, two Fire Hooks, one Rope, four Axes, a number of Fire Buckets, and are now having a pair of match Ladders made. I would, with due deference, suggest to the Town Council, the necessity of procuring at least$wo Ropes for Fire Ilooks, havihg three or four Caissons prepared and kept in the Magazine, for blowing up houses if necessary, proC.urinir a siinnlv nf lmrlrpfc. /Yirnf- lr>nct rroflinr. o 1 I'-J ? J \? ?" b"~?' ing up those that arc scattered over the town,) and having the Engines examined and repaired. I would also suggest that it might be advisable, if on examination, either of their Engines is very much out of order, for the Town Council to purchase the Engine of the Fire Company, (which I learn they have offered for sale, for the purpose of procuring a larger one.) They would of course, get another Suction Engine?we should then have two Suction Engines, which, with a good supply of IIosc, would be more efficient than half a dozen of the old kind. They could also, if necessary, supply two others, stationed at the fire, with water, from any well within the reach of their Hose. In conclusion, I hope that the Council will examine the Ordinance (if there is one,) relative to fires, and make 6uch alterations or amendments, as will ensure unanimity of action, and prevent that disorder and confusion which generally takes place on such occasions. One of the provisions ot the Ordinance should be, that any member of the Council be authorized to direct the blowing up, or tearing down any build- j ing, when it is necessary for arresting the pro-1 gress of the fire. PHOENIX. [Fromthe Columbia South- Carolinian, 28lh insl.]' OUR RESUMPTION. We rise, to-day, Phoenix-like, from the ashes of the late conflagration, after a suspension of one week only; and though not in all the breadth and strength of our former proportions, yet such as we trust will be acceptable to our readers, till we can procure a larger Press, and other materials, from thg North.^411 onrfour Presses were destroyed, inc&ding tbe large machine power Press; atftf none, of the size formerly used for the paper, was to be procured, either in this place or Charles, ton. The smaller one now used,and only one of any kind to be obtained, was fortunately found, with various other articles of immediate necessity, in the possessionofDr. Landrurn, about four miles from this place, (forming the principal remains of the former office ofthe Columbia Hirp.t and the purchase of it, and other important articles, has enabled lis to resume publication much earlier than we expected. Happily, enough of our type was saved, through the great exertions of many friends (to whom we can never be too grateful,) to enable us to resume without much difficulty, after restoring it from the chaos in which it was involved; and in this and some other respects, our loss has not been so great as was at first supposed? the gentlemen who had charge of our business, having been occupied, first, on the roof of the buildings, in vain attempts to protect them from the fire, and a forwards in endeuvoring to preserve bis own privute property; so that he had no time to aliend to the Printing Office, Counting Room, and Library, and was under the impression, as staled in the last paper, published while all was confusion, and before anything certain could be known,) that nearly the entire contents of them were destroyed. Our kind friends, however, to whom we tender our most grateful acknowledgments, were most prcseveing and determined, as well as judicious and untiring in their exertions, from first to last, and carried out every thing that could be possibly removed in as short a time, including mostof the type, library, accuonl books, and most important papers. The heavy articles, such as Presses; office furniture, imposing stones, stands, library book cases, and a large | stock ofprintiog paper, &c., in a loft over I the office, were unavoidably destroyed; and many tilings removed, where afterwards lost or destroyed. The Presses and buildings alone were partially insured?the whole insurance covering something less than half the loss. Interesting Law Report ?In a few days will be published "a Report of the case of Edward Prigg, against the Commonwellh of Pennsylvania, argued and adjudged in the Supreme Court of the United Slates, at January term, 1842, in which it was decided that all the laws of the several States relative tc fugitive slaves arc unconstitutional and void; and that Congress hare the exclusive power of legislation on the subject of fugitive slaves escaping into other States, by Richard Peters, Reporter of the Decisions of the Supreme Court ol the United Stales." The importance and interrsi of this publication to the whole community is well f etatn/l : n lt?/? riroAi^o I., il.o "The general and deep interest of all 'cltTzcris o-f ilie l/iiited .-States in the case now published, has induced the Ileportei to present it to the public in its present j form, before the regular reports of the case decided at the late term of the Supreme Court of the United Stales can be completed. The principles of constitutional law which have been applied in this ca-?e tc the legislation of the several slates rela live to fugitive >Iaves, have established the invalidity of all the slate laws on this subject. Hereafter, under the Conslitu lion of the United States, Congress wil have, exclusively, the protection and main tcnance of the rights of the master over his absconded slave, and can alone supply the means of executing the Constitution of the United States for the arrest of such fugi ; lives, and for their being carried back to the stale from which they may have escaped. No state judicial officer, tinder the authority of state laws, can act in the mat ; tcr; no such ofliccr is bound to act; ant Congress have no right to call upon such j officers to carry into effect the laws enacted by the government oflhe United States, | "in delivering the opinion of the Court, : ^T_ T-.-.t?O. I lTir. j uswceouiry says; "rew questions | which have ever come before ihis Courl involves more delicate and importanl considerations; and few upon which the public at large may be presumed to feel a more profound and pervading interesl,"J i "Among die principles settled in this i case, is one which has a general national | importance: and which it is understood is ! now in discussion between the Governi inent of the United States and dial of Great I Britain."? U. S. Gazette. FROM FLORIDA. Savannah, April 2. By the steamer Newbern, Capt McNelty, I the Editors of the Georgian have received from | a correspondent the following letter; also the i latest St Augustine papers from the Editors of I the Herald and the News. Correspondence of the Savannah Georgian. Florida, April 22, 1812. My dear sir:?The troops in the field, commanded by Col. Worth in person, after some efforts, succeeded on the 19th in bringing the enciny under Ilalleck-tus-te-nug-gee to action in the hammocks near the sand-hills. Alter a severe and well contested fight the enemy precipitately fled; their route was complete; ail their baggage and food were taken; the enemy's loss was one killed, and two wounded, and one prisoner; our loss, one private killed, and three wounded. It is said that the Indians fought with the most determined courage, and only gave ground at the point of the bayonet. Lt. A-nold. 2nd Dragoons, charged the enemy's line with orif ly four men, one of them was killed and two wounded. Col. Worth was within twenty feet of the soldier killed. In haste, y./jrs. NEW-ORLEANS, APRIL 25. Latent from Texas.?The steam ship Neptune, arrived on Saturday morning in 20 hours from Ga!\eston. The papers contain a long letter from President Houston, in which tiie necessity for an invasion of Mexico is urged: but his Ex i I cellency is in favor of procrastinating thatmeasj ure until the meeting of Congress, and the troops J are thoroughly diesciplined. An enrollment of i tiie militia is recommended by the President. ( O unmArn nf mnvomonto nnnn fVia OUJIiU gUIieiai JlllllW.W Vl U.V.VUIVUIO w?v, Mexican frontier are mentioned in the paper. VVc infer from what we gather from the news, as well through the press as from private sources that Mr. Houston (as Santa Anna designates his Excellency) is not in high favor with the people of Texas, and that the brandy bottle has well nigh used up the faculties, locomotive and reflective, of the hero of San Jacinto?so much the worse for Texas. The volunteers under Gen. Burleson refused to obey the orders of Gen. Somervillc, who had been ordered by the Presi- j dent to take command of the forces. They had no confidence in the Chief Magistrate nor in any 1 one appointed by him. The President seems to cherish a mortal enmity to the most prominent men in Texas?hence the confusion and failure of the expedition, which it was expected would ' cross the Rio Grande. President Houston has issued an address to r the people, in which he sets forth the causes j which compel Texas to make war. He says it j will not be a war of agression, "but one which the civilized world will justify?one that is due . to ourselves?one to which Mexico has provoked our exertions?one to be conducted upon the most exalted principles, not directed against the nationality of Mexico?not opposed to its reli- | gion?but a war upon its despots and oppressors. t In its prosecution, the husbandman will not be j disturbed in the cultivation of his farm. The ( resources of Texas will be developing, whilst her arms will be employed in avenging the wrongs which she has sustained." All citizens and emigrants are earnestly called upon to immediately .oun themselves into volunteer companies, and hold themselves in readiness to march at a moment's warning.
