CHARLESTON Mllt A ET, Dec. 10.— Remarks.
We enter-d upon our weekly enquiries on Saturd iv,
with the hope ot giving our commercial Iriends the report
ol a heavy week’s business, Ironi the favorable account
of the state ol ulfiirs given in one of our morning papers.
W e ought to say, however, that we met with the most
signal disappointment. It is neither onr interest or in.
dilution to present the most gloomy view oi our corn
mercul ali airs, but we must unhesitatingly assert, that
there is less business doing at the present time in this
city, than at any corresponding period lor several years (
past. e feel perfectly confident that every unprejudiced I
merchant will beams out in the assertion, that tins state \
ol alfairs is almost if not entirely owing to the. unsettled '
situation in which the State is place 1 by the violent niea- 1
snres which have been adopted by the dominant party.
As we have belore said, the most flittering prospects j
presented themselves at the commencement of the j
season, fora heavy business —every thing, even the un
fortunate affliction of disease in the Northern cities, was
calculated to operate favorably upon this market, but it
would be useless, it would be tolly lo deny, that present
appearances are decidedly against the realiz ition of these
prospects —it is a fact, which those who do not now know
must soon learn, that the confidence which has hereto
fore existed in the commercial community is materially
affected —that the stock of goods on hand is quite limited,
on this account, and that it will necessarily follow that a
large proportion of the trade of the city will be diverted
into other channels.
('niton. —The market fins been in a very unsettled
state during the present week, and the sales have been
to a limited extent only. We can give no idea ns to the
price at which it will eventually settle, opinions on the
subject an- so various—all, however, agree, that unless
to,-re are more favorable accounts both from Europe A;
the North, (licit prices must decline materially, or that
verv few transaclioi s will lake place for some time to
come. The stock on hand is now quite large, and is daily
and rapid! v accumulating. Our quotations must be con
sidered nominal —indeed we are of opinion that sales ol
tiie primes! Cotton could not now be effected at our high
est rate, 11 ■) cents. The total sales ot the week have
been only 1%0 bales Uplands, as follows—loß bales at
1(1 cents ; 184 at KM : IS at 10? ;203 at KM ; 32 at KM ;
300 at 10]; 71 at 11; 31 at 11 ’; 194 at 1 I 147 at 1U;0 at
llj; (iO at 1 1 1 —the lew sales at the highest rates hav
ing been made in the early part of the week. In long st a.
plo Cotton, but a trilling business has as yet been done this
season. The receipts of Cotton since die Ist October
last, together with stock on baud ai that date, amount to
Iks.', bales Sea Island, and 47,406 bales Upland—ex
ported m the same time, S2l bales Sea Island, and
27,850 bales Upland; on ship board, not cleared, 115
Sea Island, and 5221 hales Upland—stock 664 bales Sea
Island, and 17413 bales Upland.
Flour . —There has been an improvement in the price,
ol Flour, in consequence ot a considerable demand tor
export which has existed, and there being but a limited
stock on hand. Upwards of 1200 bbls. have been dis
posed of, of various descriptions, at prices ranging from
86 for fine North-Curolina, to 7* lor superfine Baltimore

instance a limited lot was sold at 6 18 >!.
C:ty Mills Flour. —Sales of standard superfine, ton
considerable extent, were made on Saturday last, at 6

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 6.— Cotton— Continues to
bo in goon request at full prices. The import during
the ptst week has been chiefly taken up by spinners at
our last quotations. An advance has been established
in the New Orleans market ot If a 2c. per lb. on the
good and fine qualities; but our prices are not affected.
We quote from the traits unions of the week. Lou siana

hands. About m'Jdle if the week holder* yielded some
advantage to the purchasers, and sales were m ide at a
•light deduction from last weeks prices. Toe demand
for freights, however, and the low stage of water in our
rivers, have had the effect to revive the in irkst. and
the week closed with a go >d demand at our quotations.

“ LIVERPOOL, Oct. 27.—The business of the
week in Cotton has been uncommonly limited ; only o
mounting to 7430 bags. The brokers quote an id.
■ down in low mid middle qualities of American descrip.
I ttons, but I think it fully id. per lb. This depression is
caused by the late accounts from America being favor
able as to the growing crop, particularly from Orleans
: and the Western country'. I- is generally expected that
i the stock hereon the Ist of Jar ;ary, 1833, will be from
140 a 170,050 bales of all kinds : with either of these
| results, if your crop is large, prices may remain with
! out anv ma'erial variation. Future rates will be mainly
affected by your crop and our supplies,”
“ LIVERPOOL, Oct. 27.—The transactions in our
cot on market tins week have been few and small.
Dealers and spinners have been our s de customers, and
though on the most contracted scale, they have strenu
ously contended for, and i! us on that account entitled
r>, a considerable abatement in price. Their attempts,
however, have been defeated, inasmuch ns the conces.
| sions generally made It ivc not exceeded Id. per lb. from
the c -rrency of last week ; and yesterday m my visited
] ns, and of an order competent to do large business—a
j circumstance unfavorable to their success, but at all e
vents promising to pur the market ere long completely
to the test. I i the mean while, it we look to the scan
tiness of the supplies dr iwn hence during the last tour
: weeks tor consumption, which undergoes no diminution,
j it is manifest that die stocks of the trade must have
! b- eii materially reduced, and this affords good ground
! of confidence on the part of hollers, especially when
taken in connexion with the indications, which we have
| jusi witnessed, ol the commencement of enlarged ope
raii ms. The unsettled d.spute between Belgium and
II d I and, and die measures ah inf t) he taken by France

j pletely to check all specul itive proceedings, and might
I be -adduced as serving to explain our present stagnation.

and have scarcely maintained their value. The same
1 remark applies to Egyptian and East India. From the

and Gold Lotteries, now drawing at Milledgeville. The
property has been valued by four highly distinguished and
disinterested gentlemen, at twenty thousand dollars.—
Forty-nine fiftieth parts of the property consist of Lands,
Lots and Houses, Plantations and Negroes, valued at
& 19,600, and the balance, one-fiftieth part, lotted off'into
small prizes of various articles, and valued at -3400.
The proprietor takes pleasure in returning his unfeigned
thanks to his friends and that part ot the public who have
encouraged him, forthe liberality already manifested in
the purchase of tickets in said Lottery. The unsold tick
ets are now all placed in the hands of agents in most
of the principal towns and counties in the Btato. He
further solicits a generous and enterprising people to lend
him their aid by buying up the balance ot the tickets; for
it is onlv lending fora very short time; it will be paid

Lottery will be drawn) 2560 fold !!!
Ye who have a hungering after gain, and ye who are

now offered to you: Plantations for farmers; Houses d;
Lots for merchants; shop and tools for mechanics: an&
Negroes to cultivate the land and wait on the fortunate ;

And lest you catch the poor man’s rickets.

Fellow-citizens of Georgia ! upon this subject, alike
interesting to me and you, I might be as eloquent as any
of your splendid orators at the late anti-tariff Convention
at Milledgeville ; but I will only say, known as you are
for your generosity and enferprize—buy up the balance
of the tickers. —A short speech that may be worth a
long advantage to you.
Now, some of you, property in lots may possess,
' But bv advere events may be brought to distress;
And like me. only ask a f iir chance, just to pay
Your debts; then buy—buy the balance, I pray.

MECHANICS’ BANK.
NOTICE TO STOCKHOLDERS.
TI/' HERE AS, on the 17th of October, 1832, the
w w Board of Directors of this Institution passed
an order that an instalment of 25 per cent, on the Capi
tal Stock of this Bank be paid in on or before the 18th
of December instant, and a further instalment of 10 per
cent, on or before Friday the 28th inst. between the
hours of 9 and 2 o’clock; which said order has been
regularly published from the date thereof; And where
as, on the Ist day of December instant, the Board of
Directors passed another order the object of which is
to revoke so much of the above stated order as re
quires the payment of 25 per cent, as therein stated, a
gainst which said revoking order a minority of said
Directors entered the following protest:
“The undersigned enter their protest against the re
solution revoking the order for nn instalment of 25 per
1 cent, on the Capital Stock of this Bank, to be paid on or
before the 18th of December, 1832, fat the following rea
sons
Ist. Because the order of the Board of Directors call
ing in said Instalment was passed by a Board consisting
of eight members, and with all the forms required by
the charter—and because some of the Stockholders hav
ing paid said instalment pursuant to public notice, and
received a certificate forthe same, refuse to have them
cancelled—and because there was sufficient time to have
given the legal notice required by the charter calling a
meeting of the stockholders to ascertain whether a ma
jority of the stockholders were in favor or against a pay.
ment of said instalment.
2d. Because two of the members voting for said reso
lution compose a part ofa number consisting of not more
than six persons, who have purchased up a majority of
the stock of this Bmk, for the purpose, as we believe, of
controlling its operations, and the said membershaving
declared at this Board their object in purchasing said
stock was not for an interest of 8 per cent.
3d. Because thev believe it a duty they owe to the
stockholders as well as to the public— to prevent as far
as in their power the stock getting into the hands of specu
lators. and thereby become a private institution, and sub
ject to all the changes and uncertainties es individual
| commercial establishments, and consequently liable to
j become a nuisance to the public, ns has recently happen
ed to a Bulk under similar circumstances in the state —
all which they conceive their duty to oppose and prevent
if possible.
JOHN PHINTZY,
MOSES ROFF, .Km.
AMORY SIBLEY.
And whereas, for the reasons mentioned in said pro
test, and for other good and sufficient reasons in law, we
consider the said order of revocation as null and void,
the said Directors having no power to pass the same.
W«. therefore, the undersigned, in behalf of ourselves
and n'l stockholders who have paid into the said Bank
the said instalment of 25 per cent, in obedience to said
order, Si on the faith of the same, Sc in behalf also of all
who may pay or tender the same on or before the said
18th of December instant, do hereby give notice, that
we consider the order of the 17th of October as still in
full force, and shall insist on a compliance with the re. j
quisitions thereof, or in default, a forfeiture of stock will
be claimed in behalf of, and for the benefit of the Bank,
in terms of its charter.

TO THU STOCK ESi>s^l)lliltS OF THE
IIKCMAGICS’ BAIK.
A CTUATED by unenviable motives, three Direc-
PS*. tors of the Mechanics Bans, of tins city, published
on the Cth inat. (December,) a stitement accompanied
by a protest against an order rescinding a previous or.
tier for the payment of an instalment ot 23 per cent. It
is universally conceded, that small Capitals, invested in
Banking Institutions, arc more profitably than
large ones ; for this, and other good reasons, the Board
of Directors of the Mechanics Bank, Resolved, on the
first dav of December, ins r ant, to rescind so much of the
order (passedjon the 17th October, 1830. ) as requires the
payment of 23 per cent, of the C tp.tal stoek ot this
Bank on the 18th of December. 1532.
Mcell fin ics ESa ji k,
August i, Oct. 17 fh, 1930.
N Ins - a'merit of 23 per cent, on the C ipital Stock
_*di, of this Bank, is req.breJ to be pad on or before
ihe 12th day of December—ind i further Instalment of
10 per cent, on or before Friday the 28fh day ot Decem
ber next, between the hours ol 9 ind 2 o'cl >.-k.
GEO. W. LAMAR, Cashier.
In addition toother reasons, for rescinding such or
der for the payment of the 23 per cent, the Board was
presented with a petition, signed by the owners, and
representatives ot a majority of the whole Stock; pray
ing a revocation of the order ot the VTth U tuber; so far
as relates not only to the payment of the 25th per cent,
on the 18 h December, 1832, but also, the ID per cent, on
the 2Sth December.
To the President an I Directors of the
Mech-.inics Bank.
Bv n public notice we observe, that you have called in
the residue ot Instalment clue on the Capital Stock of the
Bank, over which you preside.
Tiiat this measure appeared to you advantageous to
the institution, and th it you were actuated iu passing
the resolution by motives of tiie best interest to the
Stockholders, we do not doubt.
However we cannot but diifor from you in opinion,
believing that the institution with its present Capital, can
be managed, more to the interest of the Stockholders,
than it the Capital should be increased to the amount you
propose : We would beg leave to c ill your attention, to
other B inks of 1 .rger Capitals in our city, and you will
find on examination, that they rarely have halt the amount
of their Capital in circulation, and it would be very ques
tionable, whether or not we shoulk succeed in getting a
larger circulation, than we at present have, even in the
event of the Capital being increased to double its present
amount; and if we should not obtain the same ratio of
circulation, we ot course could not pay so large an in
| terest. With these views ot the subject, we are decided
ly opposed to calling for additional instalments. We by
no means wish to dictate to you, as .Stock
holders ol the Bank, that we have the right to express to
you our opinions, and it they should on due consideration
accord with yours,* we do hope that the orders tor calling
in further instalments will be revoked. All of which is
resyectfully submitted- Very respecfullv.

Previous to the passage of the order of the Ist of Dec,
doubts had been suggested by the protesting members,
relative to the power of the Board to rescind a previous
order tor the payment of instalments—this subject to
gether with the Charter was submitted to the Attorney
ot the Bmk, who returned a written opinion, asserting
the right and power on the part of the Board, acting mi
ller the Charter, to pass the said resolution, which opin.
ion has been sustained by all other Attorneys since con
sulted. .So far as regards that part of the notice rela
tive to the forfeiture of Stock, we deem that position en
tirely untenable. Without pretending to enter into any
argument on that subject, it is thought sufficient to state,
that on the 14th day of July, 1832, un order was passed
by the Hoard to rescind an order tor the payment ofTO
per cent, of the Capital Stock ot the Bank payable on the
4th day of October, 1832, and that in consequence of
said revocation no instalment was paid on the above last
mentioned day: therefore, upon tins principle all the
Stock had already become forfeited. A distinction is
indeed sought to be made between the rescinding of the
order calling in the 1(1 per c< .t. in October, and the 25
percent recently rescinded, in consequence of certain
individuals (*one of whom is one of the protesting mem
bers) having paid said 2.3 per cent, upon a small number
ot shares, with the hope of retarding the operations of
the Bank. But by a reference to the hooks, it will be
perceived, that no such instalments have been incorpora
ted with the Capitala of the Bunk, so that there is no
ground for the accusation of attempting to impair or even
diminish the Capital Stock.
The protesting members for the purpose of giving an
assumed dignity to the communication have taken the
liberty of dating Mechanics Ban!:.

In explanation on my part I will here state, that up to
the 28fh Nov. last, I advocated the calling in of the
whole of the Capital .Stock of the Mechanics Bank. A
difference of opinion as to the propriety of such a course
existed, some of the Stockholders w ishing the limit of
the 30 per cent, on the C ipital Stor k to remain, others
desirous that the whole should be called in—Therefore,
with the sole view to effect a cornpr anise, I voted for
rescinding of the order calling for 2.3 per cent, on the
1 Sth inst.
