London, Saturday evening, Sept. 22.—Very little excitement has been produced an tft>e money market bv the confirmation ol the rumours re specting tin? note of the King**! Holland, though in fact, to the general apprehension, it makes the alternative of a war all but inevitable. This is airing, probably, to the very contracted s'ate of .business and the almost total extinction ot specu lative transactions in the funds- Had similar circumstances occurred a year or two back, they could not have failed to produce very ma terial fluctuations. Consols left off at 84 |, and Exchequer Bills at 16 to 17 premium. From the Sun, Evening oj Sept. 22. The expectations which were entertained by the Conference of a speedy and satisfactory ar rangement of jhe Belgian question are at an end. On Thursday evening a sealed note, iroiiVthe King of Holland to the Conference, wags given to Lord Palmerston bv the Dutch Ambassador, Ba ron Von Zgylcn; and last night the members of the Conference having all assembled the note wu openod and read by them. Instead of find ing as they had expected, an acknowledgement of the readiness of the King of Holland to treat with the King of Belgium, on the recommenda tions of the Conference, and an appointment of Baron Vdtf with full powers to treat w ith M. Van de Weyer, the Conference to their aston iahment, and to the real indignation of some, as well as the avowed indignation o.* all, found a long note without the slightest allusion to the proposals of negotiations between M. Van de Weyer and Baron Van Znylen, or to the sug gestions of the Conference. The note commences by an expression ofsur prise on the part of the writer, M. de Verstolk, in the name of the King, his master at the delay which has attended the Belgian question since the conditions on which the King was willing to treat had been made known to the Conference and to the Belgians, and then proceeds, in lan gunge which is intended to be courteous, but which is-jjot to be misunderstood, to complain of tho support given by the Conference to revolu tionary principles, and to declare that, whatever may lie the conduct of the great powers, the King of Holland, relying on the justice of his cause, and on the support of Divine Providence, will know how to maintain his honour without tho necessity-of conceding points which arc of vital importance to his country. The note is of great length, but we have given its chief Character. It is evidently intended only for farther delay ; and, unless France and Eng. land should act a decisive and manly part, that object will be gained. Let us hope, however, that the two cabinets will see their interest and unite in a resolution to compel the King of Hoi land to conclude a treaty with Belgium, on terms which, without being dishonorable to him, shall be fair.and liberal towards his former sub jects. The position of Leopold is now one of great difficulty, but, as regards his country <ir France, it is better than it was a few days ago. By ta king upon himself to accept the proposals ot the Conference, contrary to the declared wishes ot his Chambers, and to dismiss a ministry acting iu accordance with those bodies, he has shown his desire for peace, and has now a direct claim for sup ►port on the British and French cabine’s. The King of Holland has re jected all overtures for peace, except on his own terms; and if Bel gium be abandoned by us and France, after the concessions offered by her King at the risk of his own popularity with his people, the two gov ernments will, be guilty not only of meanness, but of great injustice; and the next to be expect, ed will be a dictation to England and France, on matters directly concerning their own honour mid safety, by some petty state, acting as the puppit of Russia, Austria, or Prussia. From the London Times of Sept. 22. We haw learned with regret not unmixed with astonishment and indignation, that his Dutch majesty has refused to treat on tho rea sonable modifications of the treaty of Nov. 16, which wc mentioned yesterday, and which were lately transmitted to the Hague, by the Presi dent of the Conference on the part of Belgium. Hk Majesty’s answer is at once insulting and evasive—insulting to the Conference, and eva sivc of thwqucstiou at issue—declining to make any new proposition of his own, and taking no notice of *tlic propositions made on the other side. v . f The extraordinary answer was yesterday de livered to 'the Conference, specially convened to deliberate upon its nature and contents. Os course, «t'cannot be imagined that a final decit aion was adopted on such momentous a subjec. in the absence of the Chief English Ministers- The Conference is to meet again to-day, but ov ary reasonable man must now see that all hope of bringing his Dutch majesty to his senses by I proctocu's and peaceful representations must lie abandoned. He is evidently determined to come arrangement without being compelled by wneiMir foree. Hais evidently resolved to cm ploy every subterfuge—to practice every strat agetn to gain time. His mind seems to be made up to take - -advantage of tlie chapter of acci dents—and rather to hazard the chances of war, to recover'the whole of his former dominions, than agree to terms of accommodation, by which he may enjoy a part of them in security and peace. The (Conference, which has hem so grosdy insulted,, .cannot permit this insidious game to he pursued any (forther. It is evidently the inter. e«t of Austria and Prussia that Belgic affairs should bo settled : end i f is no less the interest k tliun the doty of Franca and England to be come the instruments of such a salutary work. His Dutch Majesty can place his only reliance on the infamous government of Russia; which, desirous of embroiling Western Europe, that it may perpetrate unmolested all its intended bar barities in Poland, has no doubt encouraged his Dutch Majesty in his present dangerous course. The conference can no longer trifle with the peace of Europe and the rights of Belgium. If they hove appointed themselves umpires, they must enforce their award. After inducing the new King of Belgium to descend from the lofty position which he occupied on a treaty ratified by all the Courts, and become the public law of Europe—uftep leading him to believe that the re served points 6f difference between him and his neighbours might be arranged by mutual concessions—after thus extracting from him some reasonable proposals of modifications in the treaty —after making him thus break through the assurance which lie had given his chambers, that he would never negociate with an enemy in his territory—they have exposed his Belgic Majesty to the dangerous chances of unpopular ity, without securing any of the advantages of peace. He is now, perhaps, without a Cabinet —exposed to the attacks of the press, to the re monstrances of the legislature, and even to the suspicion of the more charitable and loyal por tion of his subjects. His allies are bound to re place him in the situation which he would have occupied had he not trusted to their assurances of that definitive arrangement, which, if obtain, ed, would have constituted his best apology for apjH.aring to have constituted his best apology for appearing to have deserted his pledges. Express from Paris. London, Sept. 22, (Evening.)—An express from Paris has arrived to-day, with the letters of Thursday, and every thing indicates that France is perfcctfully ready to second the deci sion of the Conference by a movement against Holland, should that step be deemed advisable. Troops are collected on the frontier next Bel gium, and could, It is conceived, be in Brussels in a very short time. Tho Duke of Orleans has left Paris for Brussels, m order, as it is sup. posed, to convey to Leopold, the opinions of the French ministry, and to explain the course which is intended to be pursued in the event of the King of Holland proving refractory. The late communication from the Hague, which was laid before the London Conference yesterday, was not known in Paris, but every expectation existed that it would turn out as unsatisfactory as has really proved to be the case. It is per fectly understood, however, that the French troops will not move without the concurrence of tho English ministry. The co-operation of England, by sending a fleet into the Scheldt, is desired by France, but, failing that, the consent of the ministry- to the march of the French troops into Belgium will be deemed sufficient. The funds fell about one per cent, in Paris, on Thursday, in consequence of the feeling that an interference in behalf of Belgium had be come all but inevitable. Change in the Belgian ministry. London, Sept. 21. —Despatches have been received by M. Van de Weyer, the Belgian minister, from General Goblet, announcing the retirement of M. de Meulinaire, the Belgian minister for Foreign Affairs, and the appoint ment of Gen. Goblet to that post ad interim. An entire change of the Belgian ministry is announced, but it is not yet officially stated who are to replace them. M. Van de Weyer has received from General Goblet full powers to treat with the Dutch minister, Baron Von Zuy len, on the dispute between Holland and Bel gium ; but up to the present time, Baron Von Zuylcn has received no powers from his court to treat with M. Van de Weyer on the subject ; and it remains to be seen whether the King of Holland will consent to such a mode of pro ceeding, taking for the basis of it the recom mendations of the Conference. It is not true, as stated by some of our con. temporaries, that Leopold has accepted certain propositions from the Conference ; he has nei ther accepted nor rejected any thing that has been suggested to him from that quarter, and the Conference have merely advised the course which they wish him to follow. The retire ment of M de Meulinaire and the other minis ters, however, and the powers given to M. Van de Weyer to negotiate with the Baron Von Zuyien, are we think, strong indications of a disposition, c:i the part of Leopold, to adopt most, if not all, the suggestions of the Confer enco. London, Sept. 22d.—The Russian ambassa dor, Count Malusavilch, has arrived in town to day from Doncaster. He is supposed to have been sent for by the Dutch minister, to strength en his position with regard to the Conference of the English ministry. The meeting of the Con- Terence, which was to have taken place to-day, has been put off till Monday, and it is believed that Lord Grey has been sent for to assist at its deliberations. Os the foreign funds the chief fluctuations to-day were in Dutch and Belgian, which have both declined. ■ All the European securities are, however, more or less affected hv the crisis ’ m/ which is believed to be impending. Death of Ferdinand of Spain. London, Saturday Evening, Sept. 22.—In telligence has been received through France to day, of the death of the King of Spain, which there is no reason for doubting, though some persons have declared themselves incredulous on the subject. His health Has been declining for some time past, and he has lately had a se vere attack of the gout. The news, if confirm ed, is expected to hasten the approach of the crisis in Spain. Don I*cdro’s Expedition. There arc no later accounts from Portugal. Reinforcements to aid the cause of Don Pedro were continually departing. London, Sept. 23.—The Lord Wellington East-Indiaman, a large ship of upwards of 1400 tons burthen, has been lately purchased by the agents of Don Pedro, after having made seve ral voyages to the East Indies, and is now be ing enlarged, altered, and repaired, at the ship building yard of Messrs. Cox and “Curling, at Limehouse. This fine vessel will be pierced : lor sixty-guns, and will, in fact, be transformed into a line-of-battle ship, sufficient to cope with the largest man-of-war in Don Miguel’s service, and will prove, when completed, a powerful re inforcement to the fleet of Admiral Sartorius- The Echo steamer, Lieut. Otway, sailed from Falmouth on Tuesday, 18th, for Oporto, with the Marquis Palmella, Senhor Barboza, his Se- and suite ; Senhors Costa, Vasconcel fei, Rofke, and Gomez, on a special mission in the cause of Donna Maria. The Marquis reached Falmouth on Saturday morning. The steamer had been detained some days, waiting the arrival of a messenger with despatches, who arrived on Tuesday, and the steamer soiled im mediate!.—Plymouth Journal. Major Lawson, came home from Oporto on leave, in consequence of differences- as we • nre informed, with Col. Hodges, is about to re turn to Portugal, accompanied by a General of-' • ficer of considerable experience, under whose , command Count Villa Flor served during the t war. Several hundred effective men, who • have enrolled themselves under Don Pedro, will i go out with these gallant men, , “ ; FROM A LATE LONDON ?.VPEL r THE BANK OF ENGLAND. Various reasons are assigned for the dcprccia ’ tion in the value of Bank stock within the last I few days. Some accuse the Bank of having I* paid aportion of its dividends out of itscapital,lhe profits being unequal to the 8 per cent, so paid, ’ and hence the decline. Others ascribe the fall I to the uncertainty as to whether the charter ‘ will be renewed. Both parties are mistaken. 'I he Bank has not paid any portion of the dividends out of the capital, its profits being sufficient for that pur. J pose, and actually yielding a surplus. As to the renewal of the charter, the directors enter. • * tain no apprehensions on the subject. The p committee which lately sat upon their affairs, consisting of thirty-two members, and of which 1 Lord Althorp was chairman, were, with the ex ception of Sir Henry Parnell, unanimous in fa * vor of the renewal. These facts, and we know them to be facts, 1 licit Tore, put an end to most ’ of the speculations. The origin of the fall and of these appro hensions, which have prevailed for some time, is ‘ this:—The committee appointed to inquire into the management of the Bank was a sec ret com* mittee. The directors were not bound to sub mit their private correspondence to any commit tee, but as this was a secret one, they laid be • fore them without reserve every important docu * ment, and made communications which they nc t ver would have made had they imagined that • these documents w ould be published. Certain it ■ is, however, that the committee iiave, without ■ the consent of the directors, ordered the evi ■ deuce taken before, and all the documents thus 1 submitted in a confidential manner to be printed ! 1 In a few days, therefore, the public may be in possession of secrets which have been carefully ■ confined to the breasts of the directory ior more than thirty years. This evidence, we understand, is of a most ex ‘ traordinary nature. The delusive system, or * as it is called by a contempory, the “ blinding i system,” carried on by the government for a i long period, and of which the Bank was the a gent, and often the reluctant agent, is fully ex posed. The causes of the panic in 1825 form an interesting chap ter in this evidence, and the whole blame is thrown upon the government of Lords Liverpool and Goderich, and which Sir Robert Peel was a member. We beg leave, therefore, to adve 1 1 to these briefly, leaving other matters to a future opportunity. It appears that in order to relieve the nation al distress of 1822, ministers advised the Bank to increase its issues, and raise prices by means of a redundancy of paper money. Four mil lions of bank-notes were consequently added to the circulation. The Bank began to discount liberally—it lent money upon various kinds of security—encouraged the country bankers to do the same—and by preventing forced sales of corn and cattle, many a farmer from ruin, and enabled landlords to receive rents which they never otherwise could have received. This issue of hank paper took place in 1823, , so that 1824 was a prosperous year, and 1825, ; as Lord Goderich described it, one of the most , prosperous periods in the annals of our history. This last, however, in spite of Lord Goderich’s boasted prosperity was the year of the panic.— The rage for loolish. absurd, insane, & swind ling speculations was at its height. Thejob bers of London were reaping a rich harvest. — • Almost every tradesman was n stockjobber— chimney sweeps held shares in the patent brick company—attorneys speculated in Alderney cows; washerwomen bought largely in the dairy company—and dairy maids trafficked in the shares of the washing company. John Bull and Mrs. Bull were gulled, robbed, pill aged, and converted into monstrous jackasses by tricksters, charlatans, and loan contractors, ¥ I' ’ congregated in London from all the known and o ~ unknown parts of the world. The const :quence was, that about the month of September, 1825, the Bank directors saw their former issues coming in upon them like shoals of pilchards on a flood tide. The exchanges had turned against England. The gold was fast leaving the country; and it is a fact stated in evidence before the commttee by a Bank direc tor, that in this same month of September, the whole amount of bullion in the Bank, includins coined and uncoined gold and silver of all kinds, did not exceed £1,300.000. What was then to • be done / The directors saw that a run had commenced under the form of an under current, not visible to the public eye, but which was dra ining them of their resources.—They had no alternative, therefore, but to reduce their issues, which they did by selling Exchequer bills to the amount of at least six millions sterling. This large sum was drawn from the trade and business of the country. Merchants’ bill could no longer be discounted— Country bankers could no longer be accommodated.--building opera tions, and every kind of speculation, had to be suspended—credit was seized as if with an apo plectic strokes ; and hence all the alarm, all the terror, all the universal panic, the cry for gold, 1 the run upon the banks, the ruin and misery that ! ensued. * It is clearly proved in evidence that the gov ‘ ernment were the sole authors of that panic.—. They first compelled the Bank to increase its issues ; and when the re-action caused by sud. : den prosperity took place, the government left the Bank to its fate, and refused to assist it in so frightful an emergency. It is a fact—admitted by the directors themselves —that but for the i one pound notes they had in store, and which they sent into circulation in the month of Do , cember, when scarcely a sovereign was left in ) the coffers of the Bank, they would have been , compelled to stop payment! The ministers of the day were entirely to blame. Ever since 1797 the Bank has been the tool of the govern ’ ment. The directors were the passive agents t of the ministry, without any mind of their own. j As they were commanded, so they acted. — ] The} were told to establish branch banks, and , they did so, previously to their own injury. , They were desired to increase their issues in . order to relieve the country, and they increased them contrary to their own wishes, and at the i hazard of bankruptcy. But no sooner did the i evil that they foresaw make its appearance in . the form of a run, a drain, and a panic, than . these same ministers deserted them, left them 1 in the lurch their gold all gone, to sink or swim, s as it might please Providence. ; These are extraordinary facts which will be j further explained when the printed evidence is > laid before the public. At the time of the panic . and when the Bank was compelled to issue the one pound notes, the whole amount of gold and > silver coined and uncoined in its coffers did not 2 exceed one hundred thousand pound sterling !! ! » FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1«, 1832. FOR PRESIDENT. ANDREW JACKSON. VICE-PRESIDENT. MARTIN VAN lIURE.V Th* following gentlemen were, on Monday last, elected Directors of the Augusta Insurance and Bank ing Company : P. Benroch, J. B. Bishop, J. K. Kilbum, J. Fox, W. Harper, J. McDowell, N. Dclaiglc, T. J. Parmalee, A. Graham, A. J- Miller, W. Bryson, W. Dearing, E. Cox. Peter Bennoch, Esq. was unanimously re-elected President. PRESIDENTIAL, ELECTION. From the best information, we are of the opinion that the Jackson Ticket has succeeded in Pennsylvania by a large majority, but as the accounts nre so conflicting we forbear giving any returns until we can do so cor rcctly. By our last advices from New-York, the election was progressing with great spirit on both sides—but have no doubt that Jackson will succeed by a small majority.— We hope to be able soon to lay before our readers the official returns from both States, and feel confident ot success. THE CHOLERA. We are glad to find that the Pestilence is yet confined to Folly Island—and as, by the accounts of yesterday, preparations are made for the removal from the Island of all who are able to endure a voyage, we yet hope it will spread no further. The ravages in New-Orleans are awful, and for parti culars, must refer our readers to the extracts in our co lumns. FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT. Milledgeville, November 9.

At 3 o'clock, this day, the members elected to the Convention met; after some remarks from several mem. hers, John Moore, Esq. delegate for Oglethorpe, w’as proposed as chairman, as well as Dr. Reese, delegate for Jasper. On a division, it appearing that 64 members were in favour of Mr. Moore, and 63 in favor of Dr. Reese, Mr. Moore was therefore chosen chairman. On motion, Col. W. C. Dawson, was requested to act as Secretary. The secretary then proceeded to call the counties in alphabetical order, to ascertain the counties represented, the names of the delegates, and the creden tials they had of their election. Mr. Gordon, a delegate for Putnam, introduced a resolution to proceed to the choice of a President by ballot, which was adopted. The meeting then proceeded to ballot for a President; and on counting the votes, it appeared that George R.

JOSEPH MOORE, S» c ' 7 , » . - - ... FOR THE GEORGIA CONSTITUTIONALIST. With what anxiety must every lover of In* country view the deliberations of the present Anti-Tariff Convention at Milledgevillc. K m . bodying as it does, the talents of the* Stale whether for good or evil, it must have a great weight and influence upon the future destinicsof J our country. —They will be called on to decide j whether our Institutions are to be preserved, or 1 whether we are to sacrifice at the shrine oft I most unholy ambition, the Union and blessings of these United States. To excite in the minds of a multitude preju. dices against any Government, is the workoj'a Demagogue—but it has often been seen thate.t. citementscan be gotten up by those least able to control them, and who are found “to hide as they see the danger approaching.” Nullifica. tion as a “ natural right of revolution,'' 1 hav never doubted ; but its probable consequences, i must determine its expediency, and no man caa but believe that it must either produce an aim gation of the Tariff, a dissolution of the Union, or the defeat and disgrace of the Party. If the majority in Congress refuse the first; one of the two last must follow, of consequence, and whoit may be reasonably asked, is prepared for such an event? It has been said t hat we have nullified and are still in the Union ; but suppose Mr. Clay elect, cd President, and he persist in his policy, anJ what then would be our situation ? | We are told Nullification will he prospective, | and that “we will give Congress a certain lime," I to repeal the Law, and after that time we will resist, and if pushed out of the Union we will , form a Southern Confederacy. This last is doubtless the end and aim of some who are foremost in the work, and it would be well if such men could answer to their God and posterity for the We look to the patriotism and virtue of those who hold In their hands the destinies of our common country, trusting that thei r deliberations maybecharao. tensed with “ wisdom and moderation,” and that whatever may be done, shall be for the preset, vation of this happy, this glorious Republic. JUNIUS. November 14th, 1832. FROM THE GEORGIA COURIER. Non sibi sed Pairin. On Thursday the Ist inst, n splendid collation ■was given to the citizens of Burke by their en terprising and truly patriotic fellow-citizcn Maj'r Gen’l David Taylor Jr. at hisrplantation (Arme nia) near his newly established, Foundery, which was attended by a large and respectable number of citizens of the County and several distinguished individuals from the adjoining conn ties. It was not a littld gratifying to those who as yet are unwilling to consider the compact formed by our forefathers and which has been for many years the wonder of the world ns n “ rope of sand,” to observe the good feeling which appeared generally to pervade the as sembly. As the primary object of it was rather a convivial meeting or an expression ot feelißt from our worthy and respected host; not niuen political speaking was expected, let so farrnn opportunity was not entirely neglected, and after a short address from General Taylor which f him honor as a man, and a citizen of our republic —the audience was addressed in rotation by the following gentlemen with pointed and animated speeches, Dr. J. W. Taylor, R. E. Burke, Esq- Wm. Bennett, Esq. and in conclusion in a brief but spirited address by Mulford Marsh, Esq. The scene was no little enhanced £>y the p°r trait of General Andrew Jackson, being suspend ed at the head of the table, while the America* flag floated upon the passing zephyr, and cous in its folds the martial music that emenated fm® its base. The guests consisting of between five and six hundred persons seated themself around the tables, and while delighted banqi®* ling upon its viands the eye was no little arrest ed by the neatness of preperations, and the e 3f saluted bv a host of patriotic sentiments. Af' fr partaking of the festivities of the day they rett ed in that good order and harmony which is de sirable on such an occasion. A SPECTATOR CHOLERA.
