AUGUSTA. Moinlay Morning, Juno JB. The directors of the Oglethorpe Insurance and Trust Company of Macon, declared on the 4ih inst., a dividend of 8 percent, out the profits of the company, since the Ist of January last. Bickuell’s (Philadelphia) Reporter says: “We give it as our deliberate opinion—an opinion founded upon conversations held last week with the officers of several of the Philadelphia banks— that should Mr. Woodbury’s recent circular con tinue in force —should the sub-Treasury hill be come a law, or should Congress rise without adopting a measure of relief, no general resump tion will take place earlier than January. It is quite doubtful, indeed, whether the banks will he able to produce a general resumption oven then.’’ The Croat Western. The New York Express of the 13th inst. says! “This sfcam ship, every moment expected, is no t yet in. Capt. Burslcy, of the Cambridge, reports there was no day permanently fixed for her sail ing, that depending upon the day of her arrival Ho thinks she would not sail before fhc Ist inst.

It is proposed in the Lexington papers that the Western Banks should hold a Convention to consider the propriety of speedily resuming spe cie payments. The Tennessee banks have de clared that they will bo governed hy Ihoso of Kentucky in a resumption; and the Indiana hanks by those of Ohio and Kentucky; and the latter have declared their ability to resume at any lime - Wc perceive that France is beginning to be ag itated with tariff ijueslions and movements.

This is truly the age of “humbugs,’, Our money market says the N. i ork Express o) the Ifith, has been in a drooping and do pressed state for some days past. It is reported that the U. S. Bank at Philadelphia declines drawing on England less than 12 j percent pre mium. Bill drawers hero talk about 10 to 10J per cent premium. As this is not packet day however, the rale of Exchange is not established t Southern Exchanges are all exceedingly heavy, and but little has been done in them for the two days. Slocks of all descriptions are declining and the money market is in a very agitated slate T he advance of exchange on London in Phila delphia, and the pending of the sub treasury blil. has given a check to all monied operations. The notes of the lioxbury banks ate paid on demand at their agency in Boston, and at, the counter of the Bank. They have been selling at a great discount in New York From our Correspondent. Washington, Juno 12th, IS3B. In the Senate to day, immediately after the Journal was read, Mr. Chunuy rose, and refer ring to the Speech of Mr. White, of 'Penn., delis vered when the bill prohibiting the circulation of tho old notes of tho Bank of the United Stales was under discussion on the 20th of April last! began a series of comments upon it. Mr. White replied very sharply, repeated all he had said; reiterated his charges against Gnus* uy of slabbing tho reputation of his acquaintan ces in the dark, and challenged Gnutrux to deny a single part he had alleged. Mr. Gimsiir was proceeding to a rejoinder, going into a number of controversial matters between himself and Judge White, when he was preremptorily called to order and compelled to resume his seat. The or dinary business of the day then went on. Mr. Clay presented another petition from Connecticut praying for the establishment of a National Bank. He look occasion to comment on the remarks in which Mr, Niles had indulg ed respecting seme petitions for a Bank which he presented tho other day: and read a letter which certifies that tho subscribers were among the most respectable persons in the community. Tho petition was laid on the table. Mr. Wedsteh offered a petition from the merchants ot Now Haven (including all the im porting merchants except one) praying the repeal of that portion of the Depostte Act of 1830, which prohibits the receipt by Government of the notes of Banks which, since the passage of that act, bad issued notes of a denomination less than live dollars. ; Also a series of resolutions adopted by the Commissioners of the Associated Banks of Bos ton and its vicinity, and asking the same relief. Mr. W ehsteh supported tho object with a 1 masterly speech, ,ol which I will send you a sketch to morrow. Mr. Wehsteh then introduced his hill making further provisions for the collection of the public revenue, the objeel of which is to remove the prohibition referred to in the petition, and tho re solutions he presented. It is not probable that any action will bo taken on this measure, until the House decides upon the Sub Treasury Bill: which, now, there is every reason to believe, will be promptly rejected ot laid on the table. The Senate, after some unimportant business, went into Executive session. The House was engaged, during a principal part of tho day, with the bill from the Senate,, granting pre-emptive rights to actual settlers on the public lands. The discussion in committee of tho whole was continued until a late hour, and is still going on; when this package is closed in order to be in time for mail. During the morning a resolution was adopted ailing on the Secretary of War for information respecting the hostile disposition manifested by some of tho Indians on the frontier of Arkansas. Mr. Whittlesey offered a resolution to de prive members who should bo absent, of their per diem allowance, for the time of absence; but it was negatived. M. Washington, June 13, 1838, I now send an abstract of the remarks made yesterday by Mr Wehsteh, on the subject of the repeal of themow Treasury Circular. Mr. Wehsteh commenced by referring to tho singular state of things now existing, the efforts for general resumption of specie payments by the banks which are being made all over the coun try . and the altitude in which the government stands to the banks which have resumed. The Se cretary proclaims, by the now Specie Circular, that specie or Treasury notes will be required unless debtors to government can procure notes of spe cie-paying banks, of the denomination of $2O, or upwards, which banks shall not have issued or ] aid out any notes under five dollars since July, 183fJ. No Postmaster may receive any notes less than $2O. This refusal to receive notes under twenty dol lars is doubtless founded on the provision in the act of April 1830, that no disbursing olliecr shall oflet in payment any note less than $2O. Mr Wehsteh, said he saw no necessity for this part of the Circular, so long as the doposi'.o system existed. And taking the stale of tho Law* and the Circular together, it surely could not bo said that government is encouraging the resump tion of specie payments, and facilitating the res toration of things to a stale of prosperity. There is nothing in the spirit of those regulations to re mind us of the course of the government under similar circumstances in the days of Mr. Dallas and Mr. Crawford. In New England, all the banks with one or two exceptions had issued or paid out small bills since July, 1836. In New York the Legislature felt itself imper atively called on to authorize, at least for a time, the issue of small bills. The popular branch of the Legislature was nearly unanimous for an un qualified repeal: the Senate preferred a suspen sion, and a suspension was the final result. Mr. Wehsteh maintained that that measure was called for by the people. It was not the re sult ot any bank management, or tho operation of any private interest whatever. It cannot be charged to party, to management, or to any thing but an universal conviction that the measure would be useful and was necessary. Mr. Weiis. tkh supposed that all the banks in Now York, except two or three, have availed themselves of this law, and have issued small bills. Their notes, therefore, cannot be received at the custom house or post office, or any other place where the government debts are to be paid ; and this stale , of things exists in New Jersey, and many other i stales, both Atlantic and Western. Mr. Wehsteh said that the measures pursued try government have overthrown, at least for die present, its own policy of discontinuing the use of small bills. In dm state of which has arisen, the people of states, which began to act on that policy, have compelled their legislatures to give up the attempt for the pro scut, lu some instances, the laws againsi small not s have neen repealed; in others, modified or suspended. The people find these small notes useful, if not indispensable; and as there is no room to duabl the solvency ol the banks which issue such notes, more than those of others, the question may be asked, as it is with significancy and eflect by the committee of the associated banks of Bos ton, “ why not put ilia notes of all specie pay ing banks on the same ground ?” He maintained it was the duty of govern ment, at the present time, to extend a large and liberal confidence to the banks, to encou rage their efforts, to assist their struggles for resumption, hy all proper means. To this end, the prohibition contained in the eighth section oftlic Deposit law ought to be repealed or suspended for a considerable time, until circumstances shall favor a renewed attempt to sustain the policy heretofore pursued.— Nothing can give effectual relief, short of providing that notes of specie paying, banks may hereafter be received, although those banks do continue to issue small bills. The Banks cannot now, without great inconven ience, recal again their small notes. The people will not consent to it. Mr. Webster concluded by expressing the hope, that the way on this subject might be seen somewhat more clearly, than it is now seen. He was for the repeal of the prohibi tion ; but if that be objected to, he looked upon a suspension as indispensably necessary; and this suspension should be for such a length of time as will enable the banks and the public to adjust their concerns to the new state of things. He thought, however, that if a sus pension only should be agreed to, and a day fixed when it should expire, and especially jf that day should be a near one, the banks will be compelled immediately to begin to call in their notes, and the relief afforded, if it be any re lief" at all, will be crippled and made ineffec tual. Another pressure will commence, and a renewal of past troubles will ensue. This opinion, therefore, is that, taking all circum stances into consideration, it is best to repeal the prohibition, and retain, of course, the power of renewing it when a state of things shall hereafter arise, to justify such renewal. For the same reason, he thought the second section of the act of April, 1836, should also be repealed, rnocEEtiiNns nr to-dav. In the Senate, Mr. Websteu’s hill, making further appropriations for the collection of the public revenue came up for its second reading. Mr. Wiuoht moved to lay it on the table for the present, as he thought it would not be proper to take any action respecting it, until the House should come to a decision on the Sub Treasury bill. Mr. Wkbsteh expressing no objection, the bill was laid aside for the present. Mr. Webster gave notice that he would, to-morrow, cull up the bill introduced by Mr, Wi lliams, of Maine, authorising a survey and designation ol the North Eastern Boundary line. Mr, Preston gave notice that he would to morrow, ask the Senate to take up and con sider liis resolution, proposing the annexation of Texas to the Union. 1 lie Senate Bill, making appropriations for completing certain public buildings in Wis consin, and the House bill to aid the construc tion of a canal for the purpose of connecting Lake Michigan with Hock Kiver, was taken up and passed. The reminder of the business was unim portant. 'Fhe House was again occupied with the Pre-emption Bill. It is still under considera tion in Committee of the Whole, when 1 close' this. During the morning hour Mr. Dromooole brought in a report from the Committee on Foreign Affairs, in reference to the memorials and resolutions relative to the annexation of Texas, and moved that they bo laid on (lie table. This produced a discussion, which was interrupted by' the arrival of the hour for going to the order of the day. M, Washington, June 14, 18118. In tho Senate to-day, Mr. Buchanan present ed the proceedings of a meeting of Democratic citizens of tho city and county of Philadelphia, convened on Monday last, at which a number of resolutions wore adopted, in favour of the imme diate passage of the Bub-Treasury Bill. Also a memorial from seventy citizens of Philadelphia, iu favor of the same bill, and against the eslab lisbment of a National Bank. Mr. Morris presented the proceedings of a convention of tho Banks, in Ohio in favor of so modifying the Doposite act of 1860, as to receive the notes of such banks, as since thAt time, have issued notes under $5. NORTH EASTERN IIOUNDARV. The Scnato took up Mr. Williams’ motion for leave to introduce a hill for instituting a joint Commission, British and American, ol Explor ation and Survey, to determine the North East ern Boundary of tho United States, on the basis of tho Treaty of 1783. Mr. Webster spoke at length on the subject, chiefly with a view to show that tho lino desig nated hy the Treaty of 1783, was well-marked and defined, and easily to he found as the sugges tion of Mr. Buchanan, With tho assent of the mover, the motion was again laid on the table, with a view to call it up at a future day. ANNEXATION OF TEXAS. On motion of Mr. Preston, tho Senate took up the joint resolution offered hy him some weeks ago, proposing tho annexation of Texas to the Union. Mr. Southard moved to lay on the table, and on being asked by Mr. Presto, v, whether that was intended to he final for tho session, lie said I that, speaking for himself, he intended it should be so. Ho would nut vote to lake it up again. Mr. Calhoun would vote to lay it on the ta ble, as ho could not concur with some of the averments containod'in the preamble of the reso lution ; especially tho declaration that a portion of tho United States Territory was surrendered by the Treaty with Spain. After some discussion, the question was taken on the motion to lay on the table, and carried hy a vote of 24 ayes to 14 nocs. The Senate spent the remainder of tho sitting on private bills. In the House, after the journal was read, Mr, Williams, of Tcnnssee, moved a suspension of the rules, to take up and act on the resolution offered some time since hy IVjr Boon, of la., fix ing tho 3d of July for tho adjournment of Con gress. The House refused to suspend tho rules by a vole of 85 yeas to 82 nocs. There is a determination not to fix a day for closing the session until the Sub Treasury ques tion is settllcd. After some unimportant proceedings, the un finished business of yesterday was taken up— being the motion of Mr Cushing to recommit to the committee on Foreign aflairs, the petitions and other papers relative to the annexation ol Texas, with instructions to make an argumenta tive, report thereon in full. Mr Thompson, of SC„ moved to amend the | I instructions by directing tho committee to report' i,solution directing the President to lake all ucccss-irv aft-pa for auwexingT'is, at as carlo I a day a/ i. comr atlblc with e.-i-.ling Ucalie-. j Mr Howard, of 'ld,, opposed the motion : to recommit, uml concludtd that it was inex. pediem to agitate the question nt tins time. Before Mr, Howard finished Ins remarks the hour arrived lor going to the orders ot the day, and the Preemption bill, which was got out of committee hist, night, was taken up, | and was continued to a late hour in the House. No decision had been come to when , this package was closed, but it is believed the i question will be taken to-night; and the Bill will be passed. W. From tlii' N. 1. Whit r, Junv 13.

Dear Sir—On Wednesday night last the in habitants of this village were alarmed by the sud den and unexpected entrance of about 250 arm ed men, who proceeded to a point on the Niagara River; about two miles below, for the avowed purpose of crossing into Canada and attacking Queenslon.—-When volunteers were called fur" but thirty entered the boats, and an alarm being given that the 11. S. aulhotilieswere coining, tiro whole party dispersed before daylight. Information having been sent to Major Young, U.

Cap! .Homans, U.S. Navy,having the command. In addition to this force, Lt. Otlinger, of the rev enue service, with his usual promptitude, has brought down the crew of the cutter Erie, now lying in Buffalo Harbour. These movements, in connexion with the ex ertions of Mr. George Clinton, Collector of the port of Buffalo, have had the effect of Iranqnilj zing the fears of tho inhabitants, lest retaliatory measures might ho adopted by tho Canadians— also, of inducing the owners of British steamboats to forego the alleged necessity of carrying aimed men—a matter of course creating Lad feelings on this side. Last evening a reinforcement of one squadron 1 01 horse, British regulars, arrived at Quccnston. 1 Yours, 11. From tho /V. (>. I'lnmjiine June. 12. Latest from Texas.

King, Esq., tins recently passed through several counties on the route of the intended Brunswick and Florida Railroad, with the ob ject of interesting those counties in the cn terprizc. Wo arc happy to learn Rial lie has been quite successful in the furtherance of his object. In Low tides, subscriptions have been obtained to the amount of $BO,OOO, with the prospect of making it up to $150,000. In Thomas country, subscriptions were taken to upwardsof two hundred and twenty thousand dollars, with the prospect of its being doubled. In Decatur, subscriptions have likewise been taken to a largo amount, and Mr. King is now progressing through other counties, with every prospect of increased support. We trust and hope that the work will progress to a speedy and successful termination. The Savannah and Macon Railroad is pro gressing; and wo are bound to believe that the two cities alone at each extremity, even should other aid be withheld, will bring the work to u successful consummation. The State Road is prospering, with rapid strides, and the Georgia Railroad Company which has so successfully conducted their en terprise, say they are dcleinined to have theii road to the terminus of the Stale Road, on the Chattahoochee, before the State work ie completed to that point. There is, wo under stand, to boa branch from the Georgia Rail road lo Athens, to Greensboro, Madison, and likewise to Eutonton.
